BUSINESS OVERVIEW AND CORPORATE HISTORY Red Giant Entertainment, Inc., a Nevada corporation (OTCQB: REDG), is a developer of comic book style properties intended for both the print and online comic book market and also for use in other media such as movies, video games, television, novels, toys, apparel, and apps. As used herein, "the registrant," "we," "our," and similar terms include Red Giant Entertainment, Inc. and its subsidiaries, unless the context indicates otherwise. We were incorporated in the State of Nevada on June 27, 2005 under the name Castmor Resources, Ltd. Prior to June 2012, we were primarily engaged in the acquisition and exploration of mining properties which were ultimately forfeited. Since we had minimal operations, we were considered a "shell company" as that term is defined under Rule 405 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act"). Effective with the acquisition of Red Giant Entertainment, Inc., a Florida corporation ("RGE"), on June 11, 2012, we became an operating company and are no longer considered a "shell company." On June 26, 2012, we changed our name to Red Giant Entertainment, Inc. On March 4, 2013, we acquired ComicGenesis, LLC, a Nevada limited liability company ("ComicGenesis"), which operates a user-generated comic site that hosts over 10,000 independent webcomics. Our principal executive offices are located at 614 E. Highway 50, Suite 235, Clermont, Florida 34711, and our telephone number is (877) 904-7334. Our corporate website is www.redgiantentertainment.com. The contents of our corporate website are not incorporated into this Annual Report. Our corporate website should be considered to be a website under development. OUR BUSINESS PLAN We acquire co-ownership, development, publishing or other rights from creators of comic properties and other properties, such as films and novels, including properties created and initially owned by our officers. We expect to leverage our officers' years of experience in the comic book and film industry to discover up and coming properties we can acquire rights in and creators with whom we can forge relationships. Our officers and their affiliates have ownership or other rights to several comic book properties to which we may acquire ownership or other rights. 3 We expect that our purchase of ComicGenesis will give us even greater access to up and coming comic properties and their creators in addition to providing new opportunities to sell advertising and increase consumer recognition. In addition, we expect that our relationship with Intrinsic Value Films ("Intrinsic"), a developer, producer and seller of independent films that is headed and co-owned by Isen Robbins and Amy Schoof, two of our officers and members of our Board of Directors (the "Board"), will enable us to identify films that we can adapt into comic book form. Intrinsic films are showcased on our corporate website so that we can educate audiences as to properties we may wish to develop and to gauge potential interest in such films among visitors to our website, and we may explore options to convert Intrinsic films into comic book form on a case-by-case basis. We primarily intend to develop properties to which we or our affiliates have ownership or other rights for the comic book market, with many properties being published in Webcomic form to be accessible to consumers at no charge. We may also develop properties for use in other media such as movies, video games, television, and novels, and develop toys, and apparel and telephone wireless applications based on such properties depending on their popularity and demand. We may engage in either the direct production of such properties or enter into licensing agreements with others to accomplish these goals. We have not established a timeline to reflect our anticipated plan of operations, and we have not established any anticipated operational milestones. PRIMARY REVENUE SOURCES Our revenue is recognized from three primary sources: Creative Services, Publishing Sales, and Advertising Revenue. We anticipate generating advertising revenue in the coming fiscal year in connection with the launch of our Giant-Size product line and the distribution of our first movie on Hulu. CREATIVE SERVICES CREATIVE AND PRODUCTION PROCESS Our creative process generally begins with the development of a story line, following which a writer develops characters' actions and motivations into a plot. After a writer has developed the plot, a pencil artist translates it into an action-filled pictorial sequence of events. The penciled story then is returned to the writer who adds dialogue, indicating where the balloons and captions should be placed. The completed dialogue and artwork are forwarded to a letterer who letters the dialogue and captions in the balloons. Next, an inker enhances the pencil artist's work in order to make the drawing appear three dimensional. The artwork is then sent to a coloring artist. Typically using only four colors in varying shades, the coloring artist uses overlays to create over 100 different tones. This artwork is subcontracted to a color separator who produces separations and sends the finished material to the printer. We intend to retain freelance artists and writers who generally are paid on a per-page basis throughout this creative process, including artists and writers whose comic properties are being published by us or ComicGenesis. We may also use our officers or their affiliates at any stage of the creative process. Artists and writers will be eligible to receive incentives or royalties based on the number of copies sold (net of returns) of the titles in which their work appears. Rates of payment for these artists and writers will vary widely depending on the artist or writer, and on the work required. From time to time, we have and in the future are likely to retain Glass House Graphics, a sole proprietorship owned by David Campiti, our Chief Operating Officer and a member of the Board, to perform creative services for us. To the extent that we have our officers or their affiliates perform any work for us, such persons will not receive compensation in excess of what we would expect to pay to an unrelated third party with comparable experience and quality. It is anticipated that printing services for our print form titles will be done by Active Media Publishing LLC ("Active Media"), an entity controlled by Benny R. Powell, our Chief Executive Officer, President, Chief Financial Officer, and Secretary, and a member of the Board. 4 Digital form publication of our titles will be done on Keenspot Entertainment, LLC's ("Keenspot") Keenspot.com hosted websites pursuant to our exclusive web publishing agreement with Keenspot. Keenspot is owned by our director Chris Crosby. PUBLISHING SALES PRODUCTS AND SERVICES Properties to which we or our affiliates have ownership or other rights are currently available in webcomic form and collected volume form. We intend to engage in the direct production of a "Giant-Size" line of titles that will be provided at no charge, with revenue being earned through selling advertising in such Giant-Size titles. In addition, we may license the development and publication of such properties in comic book or other forms to affiliates and third parties. While our current lineup of titles is geared mainly toward the young-adult market, we also have family-friendly titles suitable for all ages. While many of our titles naturally are from the superhero or supernatural genre, we also have titles from the horror, science fiction, historical, and other genres. ELECTRONIC BOOK DISTRIBUTION We have been operating under an agreement with Keenspot to host the internet webcomic versions of our titles on an exclusive basis as well as handle the digital application and mobile media distribution channels. Keenspot.com currently has comic properties which include a network of more than five dozen Keenspot webcomic sites and receives over two million unique visitors each month according to Google Analytics Data. As of the date of this Annual Report, the following properties we or our affiliates co-own or have rights to have Keenspot sites: Banzai Girl(TM), Buzzboy(TM), Exposure(TM), Jade Warriors(TM), Katrina(TM), Medusa's Daughter(TM), Porcelein(TM), Shockwave: Darkside(TM), Supernovas(TM) and Wayward Sons(TM). Our Keenspot sites have received an average of approximately 2,315,718 page views per month in the fiscal year ended August 31, 2014. Keenspot also manages the web publication of properties to which we or our affiliates have ownership or other rights through comiXology's main app for the iPhone, iPad, Android, Kindle, and Windows 8 as well as on comiXology's website. The contents of our titles' Keenspot sites or any comiXology app or website are not incorporated into this Annual Report. We anticipate continuing to offer our titles through our Keenspot sites at no charge and obtaining revenues from advertising rather than sales, but may offer certain titles on a subscription basis on the Internet depending on their popularity and demand. We expect that this strategic partnership with Keenspot will increase consumer recognition and demand for properties to which we or our affiliates have ownership or other rights that we anticipate will enable us to collect issues of popular titles into our Collected Book line for sale, either directly or through a third-party distributor. COLLECTED BOOK DISTRIBUTION Our "Collected" line consists of four to five issues bundled together with extra material to create what is called a "graphic novel." These books can be in either hardcover or softcover and currently are sold directly to consumers through an online store which we maintain on our website and at conventions we attend at prices currently ranging from $14.95 to $49.95 before taxes or shipping. We sell products on Amazon through its standard terms of service. The price points for our Collected line of products varies based on page count, type of cover and binding and other factors. Effective January 1, 2014, we entered into a Supply Agreement (the "Supply Agreement") with Diamond Comic Distributors, Inc., a Maryland corporation ("DCD"). The Supply Agreement appoints DCD to be our sole and exclusive distributor worldwide for the sale and distribution of English-language comic books; related graphic novel, trade paperback and hard-cover books and compilations of our comic books; science fiction, fantasy and horror novels; miniature, role playing, and collectible card playing games; and related merchandise (collectively, the "Products") to chain book store retailers, independent book stores, mass-market merchandisers, libraries, Amazon.com, wholesalers servicing such accounts, warehouse clubs, and specialty mass merchandisers, and to hobby and specialty game retailers (the "Book Market"); and comic retailers and wholesalers that generally buy on a non-returnable basis 5 and other stores through the direct sales channel of distribution (the "Direct Market"). We retain the right to sell special edition products directly in certain circumstances. Under the Supply Agreement, we provide Products to DCD on a consignment basis in amounts needed to meet DCD's requirements. Products are sold to DCD at a 60% discount off of cover prices, and we may also grant to DCD a sales allowance of 2.5%; and freight rebates where DCD picks up Products from us. We retain all risk of loss or damage with respect to Products until title passes to customers in accordance with DCD's terms of sale. The Supply Agreement has an initial term of three years from the Commencement Date and automatically renews for one-year periods unless earlier terminated. The Supply Agreement may be terminated by either party upon 90 days prior written notice before the expiration of an initial or renewal term, and may generally be terminated by the non-breaching party upon 45 days prior written notice of a material default and failure to cure, with immediate termination available for certain breaches. The Supply Agreement does not pertain to our ongoing online direct sales of Products. We may also seek other third-party distribution opportunities. We anticipate collecting issues of titles published online through our Keenspot sites or included in our Giant-Size line (as discussed below) (collectively, "free titles") into our Collected line depending on their popularity and demand. There is no guarantee, however, that any of the free titles will ever acquire sufficient consumer recognition to make it to our Collected line. GIANT-SIZED BOOK DISTRIBUTION Our planned Giant-Size line is expected to consist of four main monthly books with a fifth quarterly book that will fill out the calendar for a full 52 week schedule. We do not intend to reprint properties published online on our Keenspot sites online for these books; instead, each book will have new material and stories. Initial books are planned to feature works such as Duel Identity(TM), Tesla(TM), a modern version of Wayward Sons(TM), Pandora's Blog(TM), and four to six other works in any given month. Currently anticipated names for our monthly books are "Giant-Size Action(TM)," "Giant-Size Fatales(TM)," "Giant-Size Thrills(TM)," "Giant-Size Fantasy(TM)," and "Giant-Size Quarterly(TM)." We believe each book will appeal to a diverse demographic group by hosting a different genre of stories. Giant-Size Action will feature mainstream science-fiction, fantasy, action, and adventure stories that appeal to a wide audience. Giant-Size Fatales will feature works by women creators that appeal to audiences of all genders, but are told from a female's perspective. Giant-Size Thrills will feature works of suspense, horror, thrillers and nail-biters of all sorts that appeal to the older teen and adult audiences. Giant-Size Fantasy will play host to all-ages fare suitable and enjoyable for the whole family. Their Giant-Size Quarterly book will rotate a wide range of books that will touch on each of these targets in a unique manner. Each book is intended to be offered at no charge to book retailers, specialty shops and comic book shops through a third-party distributor, with revenues earned through selling advertising space in the books. By providing these books free of charge, we expect to build consumer recognition and demand that we anticipate will allow us to collect issues of popular titles into our Collected Book line for sale, either directly or through a third-party distributor. Currently, we anticipate that each book will have two issues (one from each of two titles) for approximately 32 pages of content, with two to four pages for editorial and up to 30 interior pages and three "premium" cover pages (inside front, inside back and back cover) for advertising. The "Center Spread" will also be a premium spot and will always be reserved for advertisements. We intend to use the saddle stitch binding typically used for individual comic book issues for our Giant-Size line. On June 16, 2014, we entered into a Promotion Agreement (the "Promotion Agreement") with Toys "R" Us - Delaware, Inc. ("TRU") for the distribution of our Giant-Size Line of Comics. Under the Promotion Agreement, TRU has agreed to distribute our Giant-Size Comic books free of charge to customers purchasing other products at TRU's Toys "R" Us and Babies "R" Us stores. Under the Promotion Agreement, we anticipate providing Giant Size Comic Books starting in the summer of 2015, with a weekly rotation as follows: Giant-Size Action, Giant-Size Fantasy, Giant-Size Adventure, and Giant-Size Thrills on weeks one 6 through four, with a quarterly Giant Size edition available for any fifth weeks of a month. Each issue will consist of two stories plus advertising. Under the Promotion Agreement, we agreed to provide TRU with TRU exclusive covers for each book, a full page interior advertisement, and co-branded bags for distribution of the books. TRU may terminate the Promotion Agreement upon 10 days written notice. ADVERTISING We intend to sell advertising space on our Keenspot websites and in our Giant-Size line, as well as on our corporate website. Keenspot and we share 50% of revenues generated by Keenspot from advertising on our Keenspot sites and from Keenspot's management of the web publication of properties to which we or our affiliates have ownership or other rights. We share 25% of the revenue generated from advertising on our corporate website with Project Wonderful for its services. All rates are based upon bids by advertisers and are not set by us. Other than our agreements with Keenspot and our acceptance of Project Wonderful's standard terms of service, however, we have not entered into any agreements for advertising and there is no assurance that other companies will want to advertise in our websites or Giant-Size Books on favorable terms, if at all. There is no guarantee that we will generate enough revenues from selling advertising space on our Keenspot websites or in our Giant-Size line to either (i) recoup the expenses we incur in producing such products; or (ii) make such products profitable without considering their potential contribution to any profits made through the sale of our Collected line. OTHER REVENUE SOURCES LICENSING AND FILM ADAPTATION We may license the use of properties to which we or our affiliates have ownership or other rights for merchandising as toys and apparel and for production in comic book or Webcomic form or as novels, video games, apps, films or television shows. In addition, several properties to which we or our affiliates have ownership or other rights have either been developed into feature-length films or are in process of being so developed, including without limitation Journey to Magika(TM), Supernovas(TM), Wayward Sons: Legends(TM), Last Blood(TM), and Katrina(TM). We expect to receive royalties on the production of such properties in any form by licensees. We have not reached any final agreement with any licensee, and there can be no guarantee that we will be able to license such properties for any specific product-type on favorable terms, if at all. OTHER ACTIVITIES We also provide creative services (e.g., artwork, writing, advertising and other creative endeavors) for outside clients through our network of artists and writers, and obtain revenues through the sale of advertising space on our corporate website through ProjectWonderful.com ("Project Wonderful") under their standard terms of service. COMPETITION The comic book and related intellectual development industries are highly competitive with little or no barriers to entry. We compete with publishers and creative individuals. Most of our competitors are part of integrated entertainment companies and all have greater resources and financing than us. We also face competition from other entertainment media, such as movies and video games. The market for digital distribution of content and products and related Internet services and products is intensely competitive. Since there are no substantial barriers to entry, we expect competition in these markets to intensify. We believe that the principal competitive factors in these markets are name 7 recognition, performance, ease of use and functionality. Our existing competitors, as well as a number of potential new competitors, may have longer operating histories in the digital distribution market, greater name recognition, larger customer bases and databases and significantly greater financial, technical, and marketing resources. Such competitors may be able to undertake more extensive marketing campaigns and make more attractive offers to potential employees. Further, there can be no assurance that our competitors will not develop services and products that are equal or superior to ours or that achieve greater market acceptance than our offerings in the area of name recognition, performance, ease of use and functionality. There can be no assurance that we will be able to compete successfully against our current or future competitors or that competition will not have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. Our competitors include DC Entertainment, home to DC Comics, Vertigo, and Mad Magazine; and Marvel Entertainment, LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Walt Disney Company. The market for our products is not differentiated between age groups or gender, or region or country, nor have we noticed differentiation between our major revenue segments. PATENT, TRADEMARK, LICENSE AND FRANCHISE RESTRICTIONS AND CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS We do not currently have any patent or trademark applications pending, but we plan to obtain protection with applicable patents and trademarks. We also intend to protect our intellectual properties from license infringements or violations through our contracts with third parties. We have not entered into any franchise agreements or other contracts that have given, or could give rise to obligations or concessions. Our success depends in part upon our protection of our intellectual properties. We will principally rely upon copyright and contract law to protect our proprietary properties. There can be no assurance that the steps taken will be adequate to prevent misappropriation of our intellectual properties. EMPLOYEES We currently have one employee, Benny R. Powell, and four independent contractors, consisting of our remaining officers. ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and are not required to provide the information under this item. ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and are not required to provide the information under this item. ITEM 2. PROPERTIES We lease a virtual office at 614 E. Highway 50, Suite 235, Clermont, Florida 34711 on a month-to-month basis for $15 per month. We will continue to use this space for our executive offices for the foreseeable future. Other office space and storage space for print products is provided to us by our officers at no charge. Such space can be described as home-office locations. ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS We are not currently a party to, nor are any of our properties currently the subject of, any other material legal proceeding other than as set forth herein. None of our directors, officers, or affiliates is involved in a proceeding adverse to our business or has a material interest adverse to our business. 8 On May 13, 2013, George Sharp ("Plaintiff") filed a Complaint in San Diego Superior Court, Central District, Case No. 37-2013-00048310-CU-MC-CTL, against 14 companies, including us (collectively, "Defendants"). We were served with the Complaint on May 23, 2013. The Complaint alleges that the Plaintiff received unsolicited promotional emails being sent by Defendant, Victory Mark Corp. Ltd., discussing the other 13 corporate Defendants, including us. The Plaintiff is seeking liquidated damages in the amount of $1,000 for each email he received for a total of $1,204,000 collectively for all Defendants. The Company is defending this action vigorously and believes that the matter is without legal merit. The Company cannot determine the ultimate outcome of this matter at this time. Civil actions were brought against us by two of our lenders during the reporting period. Both actions were settled. For more information, see the discussions concerning settlements with AGS and IBC in ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATION, in the section entitled "Liquidity and Capital Resources" and in the subsection entitled "Loan Transactions Grouped by Lender." In the ordinary course of business, we may be from time to time involved in various pending or threatened legal actions. The litigation process is inherently uncertain and it is possible that the resolution of such matters could have a material adverse effect upon our financial condition and/or results of operations. SUBSEQUENT EVENT On November 5, 2014, we consented to a cease-and-desist order brought by the SEC. The Order found that we failed to timely disclose a material financing arrangement, and that when we disclosed the arrangement, we used the wrong SEC form. We are required to pay a $25,000 civil money penalty and to cease and desist from committing or causing any violations or any future violations of Section 13(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 13a-11 thereunder. The Order is available at www.sec.gov. IN THE MATTER OF RED GIANT ENTERTAINMENT, INC., SEC Admin. Proc. File No. 3-16249 (Nov. 5, 2014). ITEM 4. MINE SAFETY DISCLOSURES Not applicable.

SUMMARY OF THE 2013 STOCK OPTION PLAN The following is a summary of the material features of the 2013 Stock Option Plan and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the 2013 Stock Option Plan. The full text is publicly available as part of our Definitive Information Statement Pursuant to Section 14C of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, which was filed with the SEC on January 6, 2014. Capitalized terms used in this summary and not otherwise defined shall have the meaning set forth in the 2013 Stock Option Plan. PURPOSES OF THE 2013 STOCK OPTION PLAN The purpose of the 2013 Stock Option Plan is to further our growth and financial success by providing additional incentives to selected employees, directors and consultants of us and our Affiliates (referred to collectively as "Eligible Persons") by providing incentives for Eligible Persons to exert maximum efforts for the success of us and our Affiliates. As of the date of this Information Statement, we and our Affiliates have one employee who is also a director and four consultants who are also directors. ADMINISTRATION The 2013 Stock Option Plan is administered by the Board unless delegated to a committee of not fewer than three disinterested administrators, of which at least two are members of the Board (either the Board or such committee, as applicable, referred to as the "Committee"). The Committee has the authority to determine the specific terms and conditions of all awards granted under the 2013 Stock Option Plan, including, without limitation, the number of shares subject to each award, the price to be paid for the shares, and the recipients of awards ("Participants"), and the applicable vesting criteria. The Committee has discretion to make all other determinations necessary or advisable for the administration of the 2013 Stock Option Plan. 11 SHARES SUBJECT TO THE PLAN We are required to reserve 50,000,000 shares of Common Stock for awards under the 2013 Stock Option Plan. The shares may be unissued shares or reacquired shares, bought on the market or otherwise. To the extent any stock options expire or terminate without having been exercised in full, the shares underlying such stock options shall revert to and again become available for issuance under the 2013 Stock Option Plan. ELIGIBILITY Options intended to qualify as "incentive stock options" as defined under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code") may be granted only to employees of us or our Affiliates and in accordance with regulations promulgated under the Code for incentive stock options. All other stock options may be granted to Eligible Persons except where such grants would not comply with applicable securities laws. Options shall be designated as either incentive stock options or non-statutory stock options (i.e., options not intended to qualify as incentive stock options) and shall have a term of not more than ten years from the grant date. To the extent that the aggregate fair market value of Common Stock (determined at grant date) with respect to which incentive stock options are exercisable for the first time by any Participant during any calendar year (under all plans of us and our Affiliates) exceeds $100,000, the options or portions thereof that exceed such limit (according to the order of grant) shall be treated as non-statutory stock options. The exercise price of incentive stock options shall not be less than 100% (and in the case of incentive stock options granted to 10% or greater stockholders of us or our Affiliates, not less than 110%) of the fair market value of the Common Stock on the grant date. The exercise price may be paid, at the discretion of the Board, at either the time of grant or the time of exercise of the Option (i) in cash or by check at the time of exercise; (ii) by the delivery to us of other Common Stock not acquired from us or otherwise held by the Participant for more than six months; (iii) by an interest-bearing promissory note; or (iv) in any other form of legal consideration acceptable to the Board. Options shall vest as the Committee may deem appropriate, and the vesting provisions of individual options may vary. Generally, options are expected to vest immediately upon issuance. CAPITALIZATION ADJUSTMENTS; DISSOLUTION OR LIQUIDATION; ASSETS SALE, MERGER, CONSOLIDATION OR REVERSE MERGER The Committee shall adjust the number of shares of Common Stock subject to the 2013 Stock Option Plan, the maximum limits on the number of shares of Common Stock subject to award to any person, and each award outstanding in the case of any subdivision, consolidation, stock dividend, exchange of shares, or other such changes in our capital structure. All stock options shall terminate immediately prior to any event of our dissolution or liquidation. In the case of any merger or consolidation, each outstanding option shall pertain to and apply to the securities to which a holder of shares of Common Stock equal to the shares subject to the option would have been entitled by reason of such merger or consolidation. 12 AMENDMENT, TERMINATION OR SUSPENSION OF THE 2013 STOCK OPTION PLAN AND OPTION AWARDS The Committee may terminate, suspend, or amend the 2013 Stock Option Plan at any time, subject to applicable law. If necessary to comply with any applicable law any such amendment will be subject to stockholder approval. We will obtain stockholder consent prior to amending the 2013 Stock Option Plan to (i) increase the number of shares subject to the 2013 Stock Option Plan; (ii) decrease the price at which options thereunder may be granted; (iii) materially increase benefits to Participants; or (iv) change the class of Eligible Persons. Provided, however, that no action may impair the rights of any Participant under any Stock Award, without his or her written consent. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES The following is a brief summary of certain tax consequences of certain transactions under the 2013 Stock Option Plan. This summary is not intended to be complete and does not describe state or local tax consequences. Under the Code, we will generally be entitled to a deduction for federal income tax purposes at the same time and in the same amount as the ordinary income that Participants recognize pursuant to awards (subject to the Participant's overall compensation being reasonable, and to the discussion below with respect to Code Section 162(m)). For Participants, the expected tax consequences of awards are as follows: NON-STATUTORY STOCK OPTIONS A Participant will not recognize income at the time a non-statutory stock option is granted. At the time a non-statutory stock option is exercised, the Participant will recognize ordinary income in an amount equal to the excess of (i) the fair market value of the shares of Common Stock issued to the Participant on the exercise date over (ii) the exercise price paid for the shares. At the time of sale of shares acquired pursuant to the exercise of a non-statutory stock option, the appreciation (or depreciation) in value of the shares after the date of exercise will be treated either as short-term or long-term capital gain (or loss) depending on how long the shares have been held. INCENTIVE STOCK OPTIONS A Participant will not recognize income upon the grant of an incentive stock option. There are generally no tax consequences to the Participant upon exercise of an incentive stock option (except the amount by which the fair market value of the shares at the time of exercise exceeds the option exercise price is a tax preference item possibly giving rise to an alternative minimum tax). If the shares of Common Stock are not disposed of within two years from the date the incentive stock option was granted or within one year after the incentive stock option was exercised, any gain realized upon the subsequent disposition of the shares will be characterized as long-term capital gain and any loss will be characterized as long-term capital loss. If both of these holding period requirements are not met, then a "disqualifying disposition" occurs and (i) the Participant recognizes gain in the amount by which the fair market value of the shares at the time of exercise exceeded the exercise price for the incentive stock option and (ii) any remaining amount realized on disposition (except for certain "wash" sales, gifts or sales to related persons) will be characterized as capital gain or loss. SPECIAL TAX PROVISIONS Under certain circumstances, the accelerated vesting, cash-out or accelerated lapse of restrictions on awards in connection with a change in control of us might be deemed an "excess parachute payment" for purposes of the golden parachute tax provisions of Code Section 280G, and the Participant may be subject to a 20% excise tax and we may be denied a tax deduction. Furthermore, we may not be able to deduct the aggregate compensation in excess of $1,000,000 attributable to awards that are not "performance-based" within the meaning of Code Section 162(m) in certain circumstances. 13 GENERAL TAX LAW CONSIDERATIONS The preceding paragraphs are intended to be merely a summary of certain important tax law consequences concerning a grant of options under the 2013 Stock Option Plan and the disposition of shares issued thereunder in existence as of the date of this proxy statement. Special rules may apply to our officers, directors or greater than ten percent stockholders. Participants in the 2013 Stock Option Plan should review the current tax treatment with their individual tax advisors at the time of grant, exercise or any other transaction relating to an award or the underlying shares. ITEM 6. SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and are not required to provide the information under this item. ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATION The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our financial statements, including the notes thereto, appearing elsewhere in this Annual Report. PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION We operate under the name of Red Giant Entertainment, Inc. We have two wholly-owned subsidiaries, RGE and ComicGenesis. We formed these companies to develop brand names, but both companies are inactive. Any activities of these subsidiaries or holdings have been included in our consolidated financial statements, with elimination of any intercompany accounts and transactions. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. In consultation with the Board, we have identified several accounting principles that we believe are key to the understanding of our financial statements. These important accounting policies require management's most difficult, subjective judgments. GOING CONCERN The financial statements included in our filings have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles that contemplate our continuance as a going concern. Management may use borrowings and security sales to mitigate the effects of its cash position; however, no assurance can be given that debt or equity financing, if and when required, will be available. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to continue existence. USE OF ESTIMATES The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires our management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses for the reporting period. We review our estimates on an ongoing basis. The estimates were based on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ from these estimates. We believe the judgments and estimates required in our accounting policies to be critical in the preparation of our financial statements. 14 REVENUE RECOGNITION Our revenue is recognized from three primary sources: Advertising Revenue, Publishing Sales, and Creative Services. Revenue is processed through our Paypal Account and Project Wonderful accounts where applicable. Advertising Revenue comes from the following sources and is stated at net after commissions: * Keenspot: Revenue is recognized from Keenspot's arrangements with advertisers at an agreed upon cost per thousand verified impressions (CPM) to our Keenspot sites whereby advertisers pay based on the number of times the target audience is exposed to the advertisement. This revenue is recognized on a net basis in the monthly period in which the impressions occur (i.e., advertisers pay us within 90 calendar days of receiving Keenspot's invoices). The particular CPM rate varies based upon bids by advertisers and other customary factors. In exchange for advertising, hosting, IT, and sales management. Keenspot takes 50% commission of ad revenue for their services. * Project Wonderful: Revenue is paid immediately and based upon bids by advertisers for a set amount of time at the prevailing highest winning rate. Project Wonderful takes a 25% commission of ad revenue for its services. Publishing Revenue comes from the following sources: * Kickstarter Campaigns: These are presales for books and revenue is recognized only once the books arrive and are shipped to the buyers. * Direct Sales: Through our online store, we sell directly to clients and the transactions process through our Paypal account. All orders are shipped immediately and revenue is recognized immediately. Creative Services Revenue comes from artwork, writing, advertising, and other creative endeavors we handle for outside clients. Revenue is recognized upon completion of the services and payment has been received. Shipping and Handling for purchases are paid directly by the consumer through Paypal. The Company has not established an allowance for doubtful accounts, as all transactions are handled through Paypal directly by the consumer. COST OF GOODS SOLD Cost of goods sold includes the cost of creating services or artwork, advertising and books. EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE We follow financial accounting standards, which provides for calculation of "basic" and "diluted" earnings per share. Basic earnings per share includes no dilution and is computed by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the weighted average common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilution of securities that could share in the earnings of an entity similar to fully diluted earnings per share. There were approximately 2,693,271,000 common stock equivalents outstanding, attributable to the convertible debt agreements as of August 31, 2014. INCOME TAXES We have adopted ASC 740, Income Taxes, which requires us to recognize deferred tax liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in our financial statements or tax returns using the liability method. Under this method, deferred tax liabilities and assets are determined based on the temporary differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect in the years in which the differences are expected to reverse. ADVERTISING Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. We expensed advertising costs of $130,258 and $88,001, respectively, for the periods ending August 31, 2014 and August 31, 2013. 15 CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS For purposes of the statement of cash flows, we consider all highly liquid investments and short-term debt instruments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. As of August 31, 2014 and August 31, 2013, we had $5,953 and $14,937, respectively in cash. We had no cash equivalents during the years then ended. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS YEARS ENDED AUGUST 31, 2014 AND 2013 REVENUES. Our revenues decreased to $0 for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2014 as compared to revenues of $497,486 for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2013. The decrease was due to direct bulk shipments of our product that occurred during 2013. COST OF SALES. Our cost of sales decreased to $80,629 for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2014, as compared to $275,690 for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2013, based on volume of sales. For the year ending August 31, 2014 a charge of $80,629 was recorded for lower of cost or market adjustments to inventory. OPERATING EXPENSES. Operating expenses increased to $1,251,280 for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2014, as compared to $639,890 for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2013. This change occurred due to an increase in selling and marketing efforts (increase of approximately $153,000), an increase in stock based compensation (approximately $268,000), and impairment of intellectual property of $30,300. Cash-based compensation increased due to an increase in active personnel, and an increase in professional costs of legal and securities compliance. OTHER INCOME (EXPENSE). Other expenses increased significantly due to our funding arrangements, which are accounted for as derivative contracts. Interest expense and the change in the fair value of derivatives increased to $8,206,994 during fiscal year ending August 31, 2014 due to an increase in financing efforts under the terms of the convertible notes payable. NET LOSS. We had a net loss of $9,563,903 for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2014 compared to a net loss of $1,741,752 for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2013. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES We financed ourselves during the reporting period largely through the issuance of securities to lenders in stock-based loan transactions. We dealt with several lenders. The terms of certain transactions were carried forward from our prior annual reporting period. The status of our loan financing transactions as of August 31, 2014 is as follows: LOAN TRANSACTIONS GROUPED BY LENDER 1. TYPENEX CO-INVESTMENT, LLC On June 21, 2013, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the "Typenex SPA") with Typenex Co-Investment, LLC ("Typenex") under which we concurrently issued to Typenex a Secured Convertible Promissory Note in principal amount of $557,500 with an original issue discount of $50,000 plus an additional $7,500 to cover Typenex's due diligence and legal fees in connection therewith (the "Typenex Note") in exchange for $100,000 in cash, two secured notes (the "Secured Buyer Notes") and two unsecured notes (the "Unsecured Buyer Notes"; together with the Secured Buyer Notes, the "Buyer Notes"). The Typenex Note is secured by the Buyer Notes. The Buyer Notes are each dated concurrently with the Typenex SPA and are each in the principal amount of $100,000 and bear interest at the rate of 5% per annum. Unless we fail to meet certain conditions related to our common stock and representations and warranties given in the Typenex Note, the Secured Buyer Notes are due and payable seven and nine months, respectively, after the issuance of the Typenex Note, and the Unsecured Buyer notes are due and payable 11 and 13 months after the issuance of the Typenex Note. Otherwise, each of the Buyer Notes matures two months following the 16 maturity of the Typenex Note. Each of the Buyer Notes may be prepaid in Typenex's discretion. The Secured Buyer Notes are secured by that certain Membership Interest Pledge Agreement (the "Typenex Pledge Agreement") dated concurrently with the Typenex SPA under which Typenex has pledged a 40% membership interest in Typenex Medical, LLC, an Illinois limited liability company; provided, however, that Typenex may substitute collateral with a fair market value not less than the aggregate principal balance of the Buyer Notes. Loan funding under the Typenex Note is made at its discretion. Payment may be made in cash or in shares of our common stock or any combination of cash and shares; provided, however, that we may only pay in cash if we fail to meet certain conditions related to our common stock and representations and warranties given in the Typenex Note. We may prepay the Typenex Note with a payment of 125% of the outstanding balance (including interest and other fees and amounts due). Interest accrues at the rate of 8% per annum. If we fail to repay the Typenex Note when due, or if other events of default thereunder apply, a default interest rate of 22% per annum will apply. In addition, if we fail to issue stock to Typenex within three trading days of receipt of a notice of conversion, we must pay a penalty equal to the greater of (i) $2,000 per day; or (ii) 2% of the product of (A) the number of shares to which Typenex was entitled that were not issued on a timely basis; and (B) the closing sale price of the common stock on the trading day immediately preceding the last day for us to timely issued the shares. The Typenex Note is convertible into shares of our common stock in five tranches consisting of an initial tranche of $157,500 plus interest and other fees and amounts due and four tranches of $100,000 plus interest and other fees and amounts due, with conversion of the last four tranches conditioned upon payment in full of the Buyer Note corresponding to such tranche. The Typenex Note is convertible at a price equal to the average of the daily closing bid prices for the 15 days immediately prior to the six-month anniversary of the Typenex Note. Under and concurrently with the Typenex SPA, we also issued to Typenex a warrant (the "Typenex Warrant") to purchase the number of shares equal to $557,500 divided by the product of (i) the average of the three lowest VWAPs in the 20 if the three lowest VWAPs were lower than $0.005) at a price of $0.015 per share. The Typenex Warrant may also be exercised by cashless exercise. This conversion price of the Typenex Note, the exercise price of the Typenex Warrant, and the number of shares of our common stock subject to the Typenex Warrant are subject to adjustment for issuance of securities with a lower issuance price (as defined in the Typenex Note). Unless Typenex gives us 61 calendar days written notice to the contrary, however, Typenex may not convert the Typenex Note or exercise the Typenex Warrants in an amount which would cause Typenex to own more than 4.99%, or if our market capitalization (as defined in the Typenex Note) is less than $10,000,000, more than 9.99%, of our outstanding common stock. Under the Typenex SPA, we must pay a penalty of $100 per $10,000 in outstanding principal per trading day that we are late in filing any information required to be filed by us up to ten days, and $200 per day for each trading day after ten days that we are late. Under the Typenex SPA, we also must pay $100 per $10,000 in outstanding principal per trading day past three business days that we do not and $200 per day for each trading day after ten days that we are late, and may be required to pay additional fees if Typenex purchases shares on the open market in order to make delivery in satisfaction of a sale of our shares by Typenex. Under the Typenex SPA, we are also required to periodically post the then-current number of issued and outstanding shares of our common stock on our webpage at otcmarkets.com if we fail to maintain a market capitalization of $10,000,000 or greater, or pay a late fee for each calendar day we fail to comply with such obligation. We have granted piggyback registration rights for shares issuable under the Typenex Note and the Typenex Warrant. The Typenex Note and Typenex Warrant were issued to Typenex pursuant to the exemption from registration set forth in Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 17 1933. Typenex represented to us that it is an accredited investor. We believe that Typenex had adequate information about us as well as the as the opportunity to ask questions and receive responses from our management. 2.

We also entered into a Registration Rights Agreement with Iconic as of April 15, 2013 (the "Registration Rights Agreement") under which we are required, among other things, to file the Registration Statement prior to selling any securities to Iconic under the Securities Purchase Agreement, to keep the Registration Statement effective until the fulfillment of the Commitment Period and to pay all expenses incurred in connection with the registration. In addition, on April 15, 2013, we issued Iconic a 9.9% Secured Convertible Promissory Note in the amount of $130,000 for which we received $125,000 (the "Note"). The Note matured on April 15, 2014 and is convertible into our common stock at 60% of the lowest trading price of any day during the ten consecutive trading days prior to the date of conversion. The shares of common stock into which the Note is convertible are not being registered in the Registration Statement. All descriptions of the Agreements herein are qualified in their entirety by reference to the respective text thereof filed as exhibits hereto, which are incorporated herein by reference. The Note was issued, and securities under the Securities Purchase Agreement will be issued, if at all, to Iconic pursuant to the exemption from registration set forth in Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 and Regulation D promulgated thereunder. Iconic has represented to us that it is an accredited investor and had adequate information about us as well the opportunity to ask questions and receive responses from our management. On December 20, 2013, we issued Iconic a 10% Secured Convertible Promissory Note in the amount of $25,000 for which we received $17,500 (the "Second Iconic Note") with an original issue discount of $7,500. The Second Iconic Note matures on December 20, 2014 and is convertible into our common stock at the lower of (i) $0.0033 per share; or (ii) 60% of the lowest trading price of any day during the 20 consecutive trading days prior to the date of conversion. The shares of common stock into which the Second Iconic Note is convertible are not being registered in the Registration Statement. The Second Iconic Note was issued to Iconic pursuant to the exemption from registration set forth in Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 and Regulation D promulgated thereunder.

GEL PROPERTIES, LLC On May 24, 2013, we issued a $50,000 6% Convertible Redeemable Note to Gel Properties, LLC ("GEL") (the "Initial GEL Note") in exchange for $42,500 in cash and $7,500 in legal fees and due diligence fees paid by GEL. On May 24, 2013, we also issued four $75,000 6% Convertible Redeemable Secured Notes (the "Back-End Notes"; together with the Initial GEL Note, the "GEL Notes"), each in exchange for a $75,000 Secured Promissory Note issued by GEL to us and secured by the $75,000 cash value interest in a life insurance policy assigned to GEL by its member, or other collateral with an equivalent or greater cash value. The four 18 GEL Notes have a maturity date of January 24, March 24, May 24 and July 24, 2014, respectively. $10,000 had been converted into 2,915,452 shares of our common stock under the Initial GEL Note as of December 5, 2013. The GEL Notes were issued pursuant to the exemption from registration set forth in Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 and regulations promulgated thereunder. We believe that GEL is an accredited investor and had adequate information about us as well as the opportunity to ask questions and receive responses from our management. On January 24, 2014, we agreed with GEL to reduce the second of four $75,000 Secured Promissory Note issued by GEL to us (each, a "GEL Payment Note") as consideration the second of four $75,000 6% Convertible Redeemable Secured Notes (each, a "Back End Note") to $35,000 and extend the maturity date of the amended GEL Payment Note to April 24, 2014, and received the remaining $40,000 GEL Payment Note in March 2014 to complete the originally contemplated $75,000 tranche. The GEL Payment Notes are secured by the $75,000 cash value interest in a life insurance policy assigned to GEL by its member, or other collateral with an equivalent or greater cash value. If we do not meet the current information requirement under Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933, however, GEL may offset the amounts owing under the GEL Payment Note from the amount owed by us to GEL. Pursuant to the above, the second of four Back End Notes was funded. On April 2, 2014, we received funding of the third of four $75,000 Back End Notes. The Back End Notes are due and payable on May 24, 2015, with interest payable in shares of our common stock. If we fail to repay the Back End Notes when due, or if other events of default thereunder apply, a default interest rate of 24% per annum will apply. In addition, if we fail to issue unrestricted stock to GEL within three business days of receipt of a notice of conversion, we must pay a $250 per day penalty, which fee increases to $500 per day beginning on the tenth day. We may redeem the Back End Notes with a payment of 150% of the outstanding principal amount, and are required to redeem the Back End Notes upon certain sales events as set forth in the Back End Notes. The Back End Notes are convertible into shares of our common stock at a conversion price equal to 70% of the lowest closing bid price of our common stock for the five trading days on or prior to the date upon which notice of conversion is received. The Back End Notes were issued pursuant to the exemption from registration set forth in Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 and regulations promulgated thereunder. We believe that GEL is an accredited investor and had adequate information about us as well as the opportunity to ask questions and receive responses from our management.

Provided, however, we agreed that to reimburse GEL $6,000 in legal fees and due diligence fees paid by GEL. The GEL Note is due and payable on April 28, 2015, with interest payable in shares of common stock. If we fail to repay the GEL Note when due, or if other events of default thereunder apply, a default interest rate of 24% per annum will apply. In addition, if we fail to issue unrestricted stock to GEL within three business days of receipt of a notice of conversion, we must pay a $250 per day penalty, which fee increases to $500 per day beginning on the tenth day. We may not prepay the GEL Note. The GEL Note is convertible into shares of our common stock at a conversion price equal to 62% of the lowest closing bid price of our common stock for the five trading days on or prior to the date upon which notice of conversion is received, subject to reduction to 55% if there is DTC Chill placed on our shares of common stock. The GEL Note was issued pursuant to the exemption from registration set forth in Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 and regulations promulgated thereunder. We believe that GEL is an accredited investor and had adequate information about us as well as the opportunity to ask questions and receive responses from our management. 4. SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT WITH AGS On January 30, 2014, we entered into a Settlement Agreement and Release (the "AGS Settlement") with AGS to settle an action brought by AGS against us in the Circuit Court of the Second Judicial Circuit, Leon County, Florida (the "Court") for our failure to pay certain invoices (the "Invoices") purchased by AGS from certain creditors of ours, including (i) $17,901.30 owed by us to Active Media Publishing, LLC, an entity controlled by Benny R. Powell, an officer and 19 director of us; and (ii) $56,352 owed by us to Glass House Graphics, a sole proprietorship owned by David Campiti an officer and director of us. Following a fairness hearing pursuant to Section 3(a)(10) of the Securities Act of 1933, the Court approved and we concurrently issued to AGS a 12% Convertible Promissory Note in principal amount of $149,129.50 (the "December AGS Note") as payment in full of the Invoices. The principal balance was converted into our common stock in April 2014, and the December AGS Note is no longer outstanding. The December AGS Note was issued to AGS pursuant to the exemption from registration set forth in Section 3(a)(10) of the Securities Act. On January 8, 2014, we issued an 18% Convertible Promissory Note in principal amount of $19,000 (the "January AGS Note") to AGS. If we fail to repay the January AGS Note when due, or if other events of default thereunder apply, 150% of sum of the outstanding principal along with any unpaid interest and other costs, fees or charges under the January AGS Note immediately prior to such default shall become immediately due and payable, and the January AGS Note will accrue interest at the maximum amount of interest available under state law during the default on a note. In addition, if we fail to issue stock to AGS within three trading days of receipt of a notice of conversion, we must pay a penalty equal to the greater of (i) $2,000 per day; or (ii) 100% of the product of (A) the number of shares to which AGS was entitled that were not issued on a timely basis; and (B) the closing sale price of the common stock on the trading day immediately preceding the last day for us to timely issued the shares. The balance due under the January AGS Note will also increase if that our shares are not DWAC eligible at the time of conversion. The January AGS Note matures on January 8, 2015 and is initially convertible into shares of our common stock at a price equal to 60% of the average daily closing bid prices for the 50 trading days immediately prior to the conversion date; provided, however, that an additional 10% discount shall apply if we are late with any of our filings with the SEC, and another 20% discount shall apply if we are late with another filing after curing the first late filing. This conversion price of the January AGS Note is subject to adjustment for issuance of securities for a consideration per share lower than the above conversion price. Unless AGS gives us 61 calendar days written notice to the contrary, however, AGS may not convert the January AGS Note in an amount which would cause AGS to own more than 4.99% of our outstanding common stock. In no case may AGS convert the January AGS Note in an amount which would cause AGS to own more than 9.99% of our outstanding common stock. We are prohibited from threatening or entering into litigation with AGS under the January AGS Note, and have released AGS from any past, current or future claims we have or may have against AGS. Under the January AGS Note, we are also prohibited from issuing any securities whose purchase, conversion or exercise price is determined using any floating discount or other post-issuance adjustable discount to the market price of our common stock. We may redeem the January AGS Note with a payment of 150% of the outstanding principal amount and any unpaid interest thereon upon 20 trading days' notice if certain conditions related to our performance under the December AGS Note and our ability to issue shares without restrictive legend are met. We have granted demand registration rights for shares issuable under the January AGS Note. The January AGS Note was issued to AGS pursuant to the exemption from registration set forth in Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933. We believe that AGS is an accredited investor and had adequate information about us as well as the opportunity to ask questions and receive responses from our management. 5. SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT WITH IBC On February 5, 2014, we entered into a Settlement Agreement and Release (the "IBC Settlement") with IBC to settle an action brought by IBC against us in the Circuit Court of the Twelfth Judicial Circuit, Sarasota County, Florida (the "Court") for our failure to pay certain invoices (the "Invoices") purchased by IBC from certain creditors of ours, none of whom were related parties of us or our affiliates. Following a fairness hearing pursuant to Section 3(a)(10) of the Securities Act of 1933, the Court approved and we issued to IBC 7,500,000 shares of common stock as payment in full of the Invoices and agreed to issue to IBC in one or more tranches as necessary that certain number of shares equal to the $102,000 owed under the Invoices divided by the IBC Repayment Price (as defined below) (the "Repayment Obligation"). 20 The IBC Note was issued to IBC pursuant to the exemption from registration set forth in Section 3(a)(10) of the Securities Act. The Company's obligation is extinguished. 6. JMJ FINANCIAL On June 13, 2013, we issued a $335,000 promissory note to JMJ FINANCIAL ("JMJ") (the "JMJ Note").

Each installment by JMJ matures and is due and payable one year after receipt thereof. No interest applies to an installment if payment is made within 90 days from receipt thereof. A one-time 12% interest charge applies to payments made after 90 days from receipt of the respective installment. If we default on the JMJ Note an interest rate of 18% will apply, and we will be required to pay the greater of (i) (A) the outstanding balance (including interest and other fees and amounts), (B) divided by the conversion price and multiplied by the VWAP; or (ii) 150% of the outstanding principal amount along with 100% of the accrued and unpaid interest and other fees and amounts due. In addition, if we fail to issue stock to JMJ within three business days of receipt of a notice of conversion, we must pay a $2,000 per day penalty, which will be added to the principal of the JMJ Note. The JMJ Note is convertible into shares of our common stock at a conversion price equal to 60% of the lowest trading price of our common stock as reported on the OTCQB for any of the 25 trading days prior to conversion, subject to additional discounts based on DWAC and DTC eligibility. Unless otherwise mutually agreed in writing, however, JMJ may not convert an amount which would cause JMJ to own more than 4.99% of our outstanding common stock. We have granted piggyback registration rights for shares issuable under the JMJ Note. The terms of the JMJ Note are subject to adjustment if we issue securities with more favorable terms than the JMJ Note, including without limitation terms re: warrant coverage, original issue discount, interest rates, conversion price and lookback periods, etc. The JMJ Note was issued pursuant to the exemption from registration set forth in Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 and regulations promulgated thereunder. We believe that JMJ is an accredited investor and had adequate information about us as well as the opportunity to ask questions and receive responses from our management. As of February 2014, we received an additional $25,000 installment under our promissory note with JMJ dated June 13, 2013 (the "JMJ Note"), under which JMJ may lend to us an aggregate amount of $335,000 with a $35,000 original issue discount. Each installment by JMJ matures and is due and payable one year after receipt thereof. No interest applies to an installment if payment is made within 90 days from receipt thereof. A one-time 12% interest charge applies to payments made after 90 days from receipt of the respective installment. If we default on the JMJ Note an interest rate of 18% will apply, and we will be required to pay the greater of (i) (A) the outstanding balance (including interest and other fees and amounts), (B) divided by the conversion price and multiplied by the VWAP; or (ii) 150% of the outstanding principal amount along with 100% of the accrued and unpaid interest and other fees and amounts due. In addition, if we fail to issue stock to JMJ within three business days of receipt of a notice of conversion, we must pay a $2,000 per day penalty, which will be added to the principal of the JMJ Note.

We believe that JMJ is an accredited investor and had adequate information about us as well as the opportunity to ask questions and receive responses from our management. 7. WHC CAPITAL, LLC On August 1, 2013, we entered into a purchase agreement with WHC Capital, LLC ("WHC") (the "Purchase Agreement" under which we concurrently issued a $166,000 12% secured convertible debenture (the "Debenture") to WHC. The Debenture matures on August 1, 2014, and interest on the Debenture is payable in cash upon maturity. If we fail to repay the Debenture with interest upon maturity, the interest rate increases to 22%. The Debenture is secured by 35,000,000 shares of common stock pledged by Benny R. Powell, our Chief Executive Officer, President, Chief Financial Officer, and Secretary, and a member of the Board, from his individual holdings. Funding of this note was received in August 2013 and the Debenture was paid in full during the reporting period.

On June 4, 2014, we issued 54,685,981 shares of common stock to LG Capital Funding, LLC to convert $32,811.59 in principal and interest due under the 9% Convertible Redeemable Note dated October 2, 2013 (the "2013 LG Note"). The issuance was made pursuant to a May 27, 2014 notice of conversion and fully paid off the 2013 LG Note.

We believe that LG is an accredited investor and had adequate information about us as well as the opportunity to ask questions and receive responses from our management. On May 24, 2014, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with LG (the "LG SPA") under which we agreed to issue two 9% convertible notes in the 22 principal amount of $50,000 each for an aggregate principal amount of $100,000 (each a "LG Note") in exchange for (i) $50,000 in cash for the first LG Note; and (ii) for the second LG Note, a $50,000 promissory note issued by LG to us (the "LG Payment Note") due January 30, 2015 (contingent on our continuing to meet current information requirements of Rule 144 under the Securities Act) issued by GEL to us, bearing interest at the rate of 8% per annum and secured by a pledge of the second LG Note; provided, however, that LG may substitute other collateral with equivalent appraised value upon three days prior written notice if we do not object.

The two transactions are substantially the same, and the documents relating to the November 11, 2013 investment are filed herewith. The Asher Notes were due approximately one year from their respective issuances, and they were paid in full during the reporting period. . The Asher Notes were issued pursuant to the exemption from registration set forth in Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 and regulations promulgated thereunder.

The bulk of our other assets consist of inventory and prepaid inventory expenses. We are currently generating revenues from operations that are insufficient to meet our operating expenses. Our management believes that given the current economic environment and the continuing need to strengthen our cash position, there is still doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. We are currently pursuing various funding options, including seeking debt or equity financing, licensing opportunities, as well as a strategic or other transaction, to obtain additional funding to continue the development of, and successfully commercialize, our products. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in these. Should we be unable to obtain adequate financing or generate sufficient revenue in the future, our business, results of operations, liquidity and financial condition would be materially and adversely harmed, and we will be unable to continue as a going concern. The disclosures contained in "Item 5. Market For Registrant's Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters, And Issuer Purchases Of Equity Securities-- Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities" above are incorporated herein by reference. We believe that events may have occurred or may exist that (i) may require adjustments to the conversion price and other terms of our convertible debt; (ii) may subject us to penalties and fees under such convertible debt; and (iii) may require us to issue additional securities to convertible debt holders. Nevertheless, we have not received any notice of default or notice of acceleration of any of our convertible debt. STOCK REPURCHASE PROGRAM On June 25, 2013, we announced that we had authorized a stock repurchase program permitting us to repurchase shares of our common stock over the next six to 12 months. The shares are to be repurchased from time to time in open market transactions or in privately negotiated transactions in our discretion. We purchased 615,900 shares in June 2013 for an average price of $0.0141 and 1,170,000 shares in July 2013 for an average price of $0.0192. We have not purchased any shares under this program from August 2013 though the date of this report. The shares repurchased as listed above have not yet been returned to authorized but unissued status, but upon doing so, will result in us having outstanding 1,785,900 less shares of common stock. CASH Our net cash used by operating activities was $1,019,528 for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2014 as compared to $451,808 for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2013. Cash used in investing activities increased from $8,211 for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2013 to $19,461 for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2014. Cash provided by financing activities for the fiscal years ended August 31, 2014 and 2013 was $1,030,005 and $474,687, respectively, largely due to proceeds from notes payable of $1,010,353 in the fiscal year ended August 31, 2014, as compared to $490,500 from notes payable proceeds in the fiscal year ended August 31, 2013. OFF BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS We may engage in off-balance sheet financing from time-to-time. Generally, such arrangements have involved the pledging of collateral in connection with loans undertaken by the Company. Benny R. Powell, our Chief Executive Officer, President, Chief Financial Officer, and Secretary, and a member of our Board of Directors, is the principal pledger of collateral. Mr. Powell may be reimbursed to the extent his pledged assets have been forfeited to the Company's lenders. Under the 12% Secured Convertible Debenture (the "Debenture") we issued to WHC Capital, LLC ("WHC") on August 1, 2013, as disclosed in our Current Report on Form 8-K filed on August 19, 2013, we were required to register 300% of the principal amount of the shares into which the Debenture may be converted. Because such registration was not declared effective by the Securities and 25 Exchange Commission by December 9, 2013, the principal amount of the Debenture has increased by 140% to $232,400. WHC has notified us of its intention to sell the 35,000,000 shares of common stock (the "Pledged Shares") pledged as collateral by Benny R. Powell, our Chief Executive Officer, President, Chief Financial Officer, and Secretary, and a member of our Board of Directors under the Pledge and Security Agreement with WHC and Mr. Powell, to cover payment of the $232,400 plus interest. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS In May 2014, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2014-09, REVENUE FROM CONTRACTS WITH CUSTOMERS. The revenue recognition standard affects all entities that have contracts with customers, except for certain items. The new revenue recognition standard eliminates the transaction-and industry-specific revenue recognition guidance under current GAAP and replaces it with a principle-based approach for determining revenue recognition. Public entities are required to adopt the revenue recognition standard for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim and annual reporting periods thereafter. Early adoption is not permitted for public entities. The Company has reviewed the applicable ASU and has not, at the current time, quantified the effects of this pronouncement, however it believes that there will be no material effect on the consolidated financial statements. In June 2014, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2014-12 COMPENSATION -- STOCK COMPENSATION (TOPIC 718), ACCOUNTING FOR SHARE-BASED PAYMENTS WHEN THE TERMS OF AN AWARD PROVIDE THAT A PERFORMANCE TARGET COULD BE ACHIEVED AFTER THE REQUISITE SERVICE PERIOD. A performance target in a share-based payment that affects vesting and that could be achieved after the requisite service period should be accounted for as a performance condition under Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 718, COMPENSATION -- STOCK COMPENSATION. As a result, the target is not reflected in the estimation of the award's grant date fair value. Compensation cost would be recognized over the required service period, if it is probable that the performance condition will be achieved. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after 15 December 2015 and interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted. Management has reviewed the ASU and believes that they currently account for these awards in a manner consistent with the new guidance, therefore there is no anticipation of any effect to the consolidated financial statements. In August 2014, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2014-15 PREPARATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - GOING CONCERN (SUBTOPIC 205-40), DISCLOSURE OF UNCERTAINTIES ABOUT AN ENTITY'S ABILITY TO CONTINUE AS A GOING CONCERN. Under generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), continuation of a reporting entity as a going concern is presumed as the basis for preparing financial statements unless and until the entity's liquidation becomes imminent. Preparation of financial statements under this presumption is commonly referred to as the going concern basis of accounting. If and when an entity's liquidation becomes imminent, financial statements should be prepared under the liquidation basis of accounting in accordance with Subtopic 205-30, PRESENTATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--LIQUIDATION BASIS OF ACCOUNTING. Even when an entity's liquidation is not imminent, there may be conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about the entity's ability to continue as a going concern. In those situations, financial statements should continue to be prepared under the going concern basis of accounting, but the amendments in this Update should be followed to determine whether to disclose information about the relevant conditions and events. The amendments in this Update are effective for the annual period ending after December 15, 2016, and for annual periods and interim periods thereafter. Early application is permitted. The Company will evaluate the going concern considerations in this ASU and future reports will include any additional disclosures required. We have reviewed the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") accounting pronouncements and interpretations thereof that have effectiveness dates during the periods reported and in future periods. The Company has carefully considered the new pronouncements that alter previous generally accepted accounting principles and does not believe that any new or modified principles will have a material impact on the corporation's reported financial position or operations in the near term. The applicability of any standard is subject to the formal review of our financial management and certain standards are under consideration. 26 SUBSEQUENT EVENTS ISSUANCES OF PREFERRED STOCK As of November 6, 2014, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the "SPA") with Mark Fischbach under which we agreed to issue to Mr. Fischbach (i) 30,000,000 shares of our common stock (the "Common Shares"); and (ii) 5,000,000 shares of our proposed Series Z Preferred Stock, with rights, privileges and preferences as set forth below (the "Series Z Preferred Shares") (collectively with the Common Shares, the "Shares") for an aggregate price of $200,000 (the "Purchase Price").

We closed on this transaction on December 22, 2014. Each Series Z Preferred Share is entitled to a liquidation preference equal to the original purchase price of the Series Z Preferred Shares ($0.03 per share). In addition, subject to the applicable rules and published guidance of a national securities exchange or automated inter-dealer quotation system on which our common stock may in the future be listed or quoted (the "Listing Rules"), and for so long as investor continues to hold Series Z Preferred Shares, the holder will be entitled to 100:1 super-voting rights on all matters submitted to a vote of our stockholders, subject to adjustment. The Company retains the option of redeeming the Series Z Shares to the extent that we reasonably determine that the above rights would impede our ability to be listed or quoted under the Listing Rules. CONVERSION OF DEBT, SHARE ISSUANCES, DEFAULT TO CERTAIN LOAN TERMS Since the fiscal year end, we converted notes and accrued interest of approximately $154,000 in exchange for 317,303,879 shares of our common stock. In accordance with convertible note agreements, delinquent filings of our annual and quarterly reports are subject to default provisions. As of the date of filing, we are delinquent in filing this annual report for the year ended August 31, 2014 and in filing our report for the quarter ended November 30, 2014. These delinquencies trigger defaults in the terms of outstanding loan covenants for which monetary penalties are accruing. We estimate these costs to be approximately $152,000, which satisfaction will require additional issuance of common stock, in accordance with conversion terms of those agreements. We estimate that an additional 315,000,000 shares of common stock will be required to be issued in satisfaction of these terms. ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and are not required to provide the information under this item.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Red Giant Entertainment, Inc. as of August 31, 2014 and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders' deficit, and cash flows for the year then ended. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall consolidated financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Red Giant Entertainment, Inc. as of August 31, 2014 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has incurred a net loss of approximately $9,600,000 and had cash used in operations of approximately $1,000,000 for the year ended August 31, 2014, and the Company had an accumulated deficit of approximately $11,300,000 and a working capital deficit of approximately $4,300,000 at August 31, 2014. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regards to these matters are also described in Note 3. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. /s/ D'Arelli Pruzansky, P.A. ------------------------------------- Certified Public Accountants Boca Raton, Florida April 2, 2015 28 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Messineo & Co., CPAs LLC 2471 N McMullen Booth Road, Suite 302 Clearwater, FL 33759-1362 [LOGO] T: (518) 530-1122 F: (727) 674-0511 ================================================================================ REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM To the Board of Directors and Shareholders: Red Giant Entertainment, Inc.

See accompanying notes to consolidated financial statements 33 Red Giant Entertainment, Inc. Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements August 31, 2014 and 2013 NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS Red Giant Entertainment LLC (the "LLC") was formed in the State of Florida, U.S.A., on January 1, 2011. On May 9, 2012, the LLC incorporated and changed its name to Red Giant Entertainment, Inc. ("RGE"). All income and expenses in these financial statements have been recharacterized for reporting purposes to be all inclusive for the corporate entity. The LLC was originally a publishing company, but has expanded its operations to include mass media and graphic novel artwork development. On March 4, 2013, the Company acquired ComicGenesis, LLC ("ComicGenesis"), a Nevada limited liability company that operates a user-generated comic site that hosts over 10,000 independent webcomics. NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES BASIS OF PRESENTATION The Company prepares its financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"), which require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates include the allowance for doubtful accounts, inventory valuation, useful lives and valuation of property and equipment and intangible assets, stock based compensation, derivative liabilities, and the deferred tax assets valuation allowance. Actual results could differ from those estimates. PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION The Company operates under the name of Red Giant Entertainment, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries RGE and ComicGenesis. The companies were incorporated for the intentions of developing brand names. Any activities of these subsidiaries or holdings have been included in the consolidated financial statements, with elimination of any intercompany accounts and transactions. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS Topic 820 in the Accounting Standards Codification (ASC 820) defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. ASC 820 applies whenever other standards require (or permit) assets or liabilities to be measured at fair value but does not expand the use of fair value in any new circumstances. In this standard, the FASB clarifies the principle that fair value should be based on the assumptions market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability. In support of this principle, ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the information used to develop those assumptions. The fair value hierarchy is as follows: * Level 1 inputs -- Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity has the ability to access at the measurement date. * Level 2 inputs -- Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These might include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, such as interest rates and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals. * Level 3 inputs -- Unobservable inputs for determining the fair values of assets or liabilities that reflect an entity's own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the assets or liabilities. 34 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total ------- ------- ------- ----- Derivative Liabilities $ -- $ -- $3,553,650 $3,553,650 Total Derivative Liabilities $ -- $ -- $3,553,650 $3,553,650 The table below provides a summary of the changes in fair value, including net transfers in and/or out, of all financial assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) during the twelve months of fiscal year 2014: Fair Value Measurements using inputs ------------ Balance, September 1, 2013 $ 1,695,399 Total (gains) losses realized and included in net loss 6,734,630 Purchases, issuances and settlements (4,876,379) Transfers in (out) -- ------------ Balance, August 31, 2014 $ 3,553,650 ============ Assumptions used in the calculation of the derivative liability are as follows: August 31, --------------------- 2014 2013 ------ ------ Weighted Average: Dividend rate 0.00% 0.00% Risk-free interest rate 0.05% .08% Expected lives (years) .375 1.05 Expected price volatility 426.8% 288.2% Forfeiture Rate 0.00% 0.00% CASH FLOW REPORTING The Company follows ASC 230, Statement of Cash Flows, for cash flows reporting, classifies cash receipts and payments according to whether they stem from operating, investing, or financing activities and provides definitions of each category, and uses the indirect or reconciliation method ("Indirect method") as defined by ASC 230, Statement of Cash Flows, to report net cash flow from operating activities by adjusting net income to reconcile it to net cash flow from operating activities by removing the effects of (a) all deferrals of past operating cash receipts and payments and all accruals of expected future operating cash receipts and payments and (b) all items that are included in net income that do not affect operating cash receipts and payments. CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid investments and short-term debt instruments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. As of August 31, 2014 and August 31, 2013, we had $5,953 and $14,937, respectively in cash. We had no cash equivalents during the years then ended. ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE The Company recognizes accounts receivable for its credit sales and does not require any collateral. The Company regularly reviews outstanding receivables and provides for estimated losses through an allowance for doubtful accounts. In evaluating the allowance, the Company makes judgments regarding its customers' ability to make required payments, economic events, and other factors. As the financial condition of these parties change, circumstances develop, or additional information becomes available, adjustments to the allowance for doubtful accounts may be required. As of August 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company estimated the allowance for doubtful accounts to be $1,253, and $0, respectively. 35 INVENTORY As of August 31, 2014, inventory consists of physical copies of published books, as well as artwork that is used for digitally distributed works for advertising revenue and future publications. The inventory is valued at the lower of the cost to produce, on a first-in-first-out (FIFO) basis, or market value. In August 2014, the Company charged $80,629 to cost of sales as a write-down of inventory held to its estimated market value. PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT Property and equipment are recorded at historical cost. Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the asset. The Company currently has equipment being depreciated for estimated lives of three to five years. INTANGIBLE ASSETS Intangible assets, including intellectual property and a web site, have been recorded at their fair historical cost. Amortization is calculated on a straight line basis over the estimated useful life of three years. The Company periodically tests the carrying value for impairment as noted below. LONG-LIVED ASSETS IMPAIRMENT Long-lived assets of the Company are reviewed for impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of assets may not be recoverable, pursuant to guidance established in ASC 360, Property, Plant and Equipment. Management considers assets to be impaired if the carrying value exceeds the future projected cash flows from related operations (undiscounted and without interest charges). If impairment is deemed to exist, the assets will be written down to fair value. Fair value is generally determined using a discounted cash flow analysis. REVENUE RECOGNITION Revenue for the Company is recognized from three primary sources: Advertising Revenue, Publishing Sales and Creative Services. Revenue was processed through our Paypal Account and Project Wonderful accounts where applicable. Advertising Revenue comes from the following sources and is stated at net after commissions: * Keenspot: Revenue is earned on a net 90-day basis and is based upon traffic to Red Giant property Web sites. It is calculated on a Cost Per Thousand (CPM) of verified impressions and varies based upon bids by advertisers and other customary factors. In exchange for advertising, hosting, IT, and sales management, Keenspot takes 50% commission of ad revenue for their services. * Project Wonderful: Revenue is recorded upon delivery of services and priced based upon bids by advertisers for a set amount of time at the prevailing highest winning rate. Project Wonderful takes a 25% commission of ad revenue for their services. Publishing Revenue comes from the following sources: * Kickstarter Campaigns: These are presales for books, and revenue is recognized when the books are shipped to the buyers. * Direct Sales: Through our online store, we sell directly to clients and the transactions process through our Paypal account. All orders are shipped immediately and revenue is recognized upon shipment. Creative Services are artwork, writing, advertising, and other creative endeavors we handle for outside clients. Revenue is recognized upon completion of the services and receipt of payment. Shipping and Handling for purchases are paid directly by the consumer through PayPal. 36 COST OF SALES Cost of sales includes the cost of creating services or artwork, advertising and books. During the year ended August 31, 2014, the Company recognized a charge of $80,629 as a lower of cost or market adjustment to inventory, which is also included in cost of sales. ADVERTISING Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. The Company expensed advertising costs of $130,258 and $88,001 for the years ending August 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. STOCK BASED COMPENSATION The Company issues restricted stock to consultants for various services. The costs for these transactions are measured at the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The value of the common stock is measured at the earlier of (i) the date at which a firm commitment for performance by the counterparty to earn the equity instruments is reached or (ii) the date at which the counterparty's performance is complete. The Company recognized consulting expenses and a corresponding increase to additional paid-in-capital related to stock issued for services. For agreements requiring future services, the consulting expense is to be recognized ratably over the requisite service period. INCOME TAXES The Company accounts for income taxes pursuant to the provisions of ASC 740-10,"Accounting for Income Taxes," which requires, among other things, an asset and a liability approach to calculating deferred income taxes. The asset and liability approach requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities. A valuation allowance is provided to offset any net deferred tax assets for which management believes it is more likely than not that the net deferred asset will not be realized. The Company follows the provisions of ASC 740-10 related to accounting for uncertain income tax positions. When tax returns are filed, it is highly certain that some positions taken would be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities, while others are subject to uncertainty about the merits of the position taken or the amount of the positions that would be ultimately sustained. In accordance with the guidance of ASC 740-10, the benefit of a tax position is recognized in the financial statements in the period during which, based on all available evidence, management believes it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of appeals or litigation processes, if any. Tax positions taken are not offset or aggregated with other positions. Tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold are measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely of being realized upon settlement with the applicable tax authority. The portion of the benefits associated with tax positions taken that exceeds the amount measured as described above should be reflected as a liability for uncertain tax benefits in the accompanying balance sheet along with any associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing authorities upon examination. The Company believes its tax positions are all highly certain of being upheld upon examination. As such, the Company has not recorded a liability for uncertain tax benefits. The Company has adopted ASC 740-10-25, DEFINITION OF SETTLEMENT, which provides guidance on how an entity should determine whether a tax position is effectively settled for the purpose of recognizing previously unrecognized tax benefits and provides that a tax position can be effectively settled upon the completion of an examination by a taxing authority without being legally extinguished. For tax positions considered effectively settled, an entity would recognize the full amount of tax benefit, even if the tax position is not considered more likely than not to be sustained based solely on the basis of its technical merits and the statute of limitations remains open. As of August 31, 2014, the Company is delinquent in several of its tax filings. Therefore, tax years ended August 31, 2014, 2013, and 2012, along with any other tax years with delinquent filings are subject to audit. 37 EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE The Company follows ASC 260, Earnings Per Share, which provides for calculation of "basic" and "diluted" earnings per share. Basic earnings per share includes no dilution and is computed by dividing net income available to common stockholders by the weighted average common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilution of securities that could share in the earnings of an entity similar to fully diluted earnings per share. There were approximately 2,693,271,000 common stock equivalents outstanding at August 31, 2014, related to the convertible debt arrangements and an additional 25,000,000 options (with exercise price greater than market value as of August 31, 2014). Due to losses, dilutive earnings per share is not presented, as the effect would be anti-dilutive. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2014-09, REVENUE FROM CONTRACTS WITH Customers. The revenue recognition standard affects all entities that have contracts with customers, except for certain items. The new revenue recognition standard eliminates the transaction-and industry-specific revenue recognition guidance under current GAAP and replaces it with a principle-based approach for determining revenue recognition. Public entities are required to adopt the revenue recognition standard for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim and annual reporting periods thereafter. Early adoption is not permitted for public entities. The Company has reviewed the applicable ASU and has not, at the current time, quantified the effects of this pronouncement; however, it believes that there will be no material effect on the consolidated financial statements. In June 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2014-12 COMPENSATION -- STOCK COMPENSATION (TOPIC 718), ACCOUNTING FOR SHARE-BASED PAYMENTS WHEN THE TERMS OF AN AWARD PROVIDE THAT A PERFORMANCE TARGET COULD BE ACHIEVED AFTER THE REQUISITE SERVICE PERIOD. A performance target in a share-based payment that affects vesting and that could be achieved after the requisite service period should be accounted for as a performance condition under Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 718, COMPENSATION -- STOCK COMPENSATION. As a result, the target is not reflected in the estimation of the award's grant date fair value. Compensation cost would be recognized over the required service period, if it is probable that the performance condition will be achieved. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015 and interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted. Management has reviewed the ASU and believes that they currently account for these awards in a manner consistent with the new guidance, therefore there is no anticipation of any effect to the consolidated financial statements. In August 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2014-15 PREPARATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - GOING CONCERN (SUBTOPIC 205-40), DISCLOSURE OF UNCERTAINTIES ABOUT AN ENTITY'S ABILITY TO CONTINUE AS A GOING CONCERN. Under generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), continuation of a reporting entity as a going concern is presumed as the basis for preparing financial statements unless and until the entity's liquidation becomes imminent. Preparation of financial statements under this presumption is commonly referred to as the going concern basis of accounting. If and when an entity's liquidation becomes imminent, financial statements should be prepared under the liquidation basis of accounting in accordance with Subtopic 205-30, PRESENTATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--LIQUIDATION BASIS OF ACCOUNTING. Even when an entity's liquidation is not imminent, there may be conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about the entity's ability to continue as a going concern. In those situations, financial statements should continue to be prepared under the going concern basis of accounting, but the amendments in this Update should be followed to determine whether to disclose information about the relevant conditions and events. The amendments in this Update are effective for the annual period ending after December 15, 2016, and for annual periods and interim periods thereafter. Early application is permitted. The Company will evaluate the going concern considerations in this ASU and future reports will include any additional disclosures required. We have reviewed the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") accounting pronouncements and interpretations thereof that have effectiveness dates during the periods reported and in future periods. The Company has carefully considered the new pronouncements that alter previous generally accepted accounting principles and does not believe that any new or modified principles will have a material impact on the corporation's reported financial position or operations in the near term. The applicability of any standard is subject to the formal review of our financial management and certain standards are under consideration. 38 NOTE 3 - MANAGEMENT STATEMENT REGARDING GOING CONCERN The Company's revenues are insufficient to meet its operating expenses. The Company has incurred net losses of $9,563,903 and $1,741,752 for the years ending August 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Accumulated losses resulted in an accumulated deficit of $11,313,003. The Company has a net working capital deficit of $4,276,859 and cash used in operations of $1,019,528 as of and for the year ending August 31, 2014. Due to the financial position, and given the current economic environment and the continuing need to strengthen our cash position, management believes that there is substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management is currently pursuing various funding options, including seeking debt or equity financing, licensing opportunities, as well as strategic other transactions, to obtain additional funding to continue the development of, and successfully commercialize, its products. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in its efforts and this raises substantial doubt about the Company's future. Should the Company be unable to obtain adequate financing or generate sufficient revenue in the future, the Company's business, results of operations, liquidity and financial condition would be materially and adversely harmed, and the Company would be unable to continue as a going concern. The Company believes that its ability to execute its business plan, and therefore continue as a going concern, is dependent upon its ability to do the following: * Obtain adequate sources of funding to fund long-term business operations; * Enter into a licensing or other relationship that allows the Company to commercialize its products; * Manage or control working capital requirements; and * Develop new and enhance existing relationships with product distributors and other points of distribution for the Company's products. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in achieving its short- or long-term plans as set forth above, or that such plans, if consummated, will enable the Company to obtain profitable operations or continue in the long-term as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. NOTE 4 - INVENTORY As of August 31, 2014, inventory consisted of physical copies of published books, as well as artwork used for digitally distributed works for advertising revenue and future publications. The inventory is valued at the lower of the cost to produce, on a first-in-first-out (FIFO) basis, or market value.. The Company recorded a charge for inventory, in the amount of $80,629, related to inventory items with short shelf lives and in consideration of marginal operating margins (lower of cost or market) of its existing inventory at August 31, 2014. Total inventory was $6,990 and $52,107, as of August 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. NOTE 5 - PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT Property and equipment consists of: August 31, ----------------------------- 2014 2013 -------- -------- Computers and equipment $ 20,103 $ 3,333 Trade booth and equipment 8,211 8,211 Office furniture 2,691 -- -------- -------- Total property and equipment $ 31,005 $ 11,544 Less accumulated depreciation (5,103) (996) -------- -------- Property and equipment, net $ 25,902 $ 10,548 ======== ======== 39 Depreciation for the years ended August 31, 2014 and 2013 was $4,107 and $640, respectively. NOTE 6 - INTANGIBLE ASSETS The Company's intangible assets consists of graphic novel artwork and was contributed by a shareholder to the Company in 2011 and valued at $29,250, which was determined based on the historical costs for artists and printing. The intangible was being amortized over its estimated life of five years. The Company acquired website and other intangible assets in the acquisition of a subsidiary in March 2013, valued at the fair market value of stock exchanged by a shareholder, valued in the amount of $45,000. The intangible was being amortized over its estimated life of three years. August 31, ----------------------------- 2014 2013 -------- -------- Intellectual property $ 29,250 $ 29,250 Website development 45,000 45,000 -------- -------- 74,250 74,250 Less accumulated amortization 43,950 23,100 -------- -------- 30,300 51,150 Less impairment valuation (30,300) -- -------- -------- Intangible assets, net $ -- $ 51,150 ======== ======== Amortization cost for the periods ended August 31, 2013 and 2012 was $20,850 and $13,350, respectively. Due to considerations regarding recoverability, the Company recorded an impairment loss for the carrying value of the assets as of August 31, 2014, in the amount of $30,300. NOTE 7 - CONVERTIBLE NOTES PAYABLE The Company entered into several lending arrangements with lenders, each with convertible features. The Company evaluated the terms of the convertible notes in accordance with ASC Topic No. 815 - 40, DERIVATIVE AND HEDGING CONTRACTS - CONTRACTS IN ENTITIES' OWN STOCK and the underlying conversion features that are indexed to the Company's common stock. The Company determined that the conversion features meet the definition of a liability and therefore bifurcated the conversion feature and accounted for it as a separate derivative liability. The Company evaluated the embedded conversion features and determined that the embedded option should be accounted for as a derivative liability. Therefore, the Company recorded a derivative liability and recognized a debt discount on the notes on the origination date. The debt discount was recorded as reduction (contra-liability) to the Convertible Notes Payable. The debt discount is being amortized over the life of the notes. Additionally, the notes called for an immediate withholding for service charges, which has been treated as an original issue discount or deferred financing costs, a contra-liability charge, which is amortized as finance cost over the life of the loan. Interest expense, in the amount of $1,472,364 and $479,559 was recognized for the derivative debt discounts and deferred financing costs for the period ended August 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. A derivative liability, in the amount of $3,518,650 and $1,339,599 has been recorded, as of August 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, related to the notes. The derivative value was calculated using the Black-Scholes method. Assumptions used in the derivative valuation were as follows: 40 August 31, ----------------------------- 2014 2013 -------- -------- Weighted Average: Dividend rate 0.00% 0.00% Risk-free interest rate 0.05% .08% Expected lives (years) .375 1.05 Expected price volatility 426.8% 288.2% Forfeiture Rate 0.00% 0.00% The convertible notes have the following terms and conversion features: Maturity dates Six months to one year Interest rate 6% to 12%, default rates to 22% Conversion discounts 30-49% Basis of conversion Trading price (lowest during period) 10-20 trading days The convertible notes outstanding as of August 31 are summarized below: 2013 2014 -------- -------- Total debt outstanding $677,000 $621,000 Add: accrual for penalty clauses in instruments 34,500 -- Less: unexpired derivative debt discounts and deferred finance costs discounts 264,468 539,603 -------- -------- Total $447,032 $ 81,397 ======== ======== In accordance with terms of agreements, the Company has accrued an additional liability in the amount of $34,500 for defaults associated with provisions within the contracts. In association with these defaults, the Company has accrued $27,000 of additional interest and recorded an additional derivative, included in the above, of $293,022. Unexpired debt discounts, as of August 31, 2014, in the amount of $264,468, will be recognized as interest expense in for the year ending August 31, 2015. If notes and accrued interest were converted as of August 31, 2014, there would be approximately 2,693,271,000 additional shares to be issued. NOTE 8 - INCOME TAXES Income taxes are provided based upon the liability method. Under this approach, deferred income taxes are recorded to reflect the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts at each year-end. A valuation allowance is recorded against deferred tax assets if management does not believe the Company has met the "more likely than not" standard imposed by accounting standards to allow recognition of such an asset. At August 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company expected no net deferred tax assets to be recognized, resulting from net operating losses. Deferred tax assets were offset by a corresponding allowance of 100%. 41 For the tax year ended December 31, 2011, the predecessor entity to Red Giant Entertainment, Inc. was a limited liability company, and as such, all tax benefits and obligations passed through the entity to its members. No provisions have been made prior to December 31, 2011, nor does management believe that any tax modifications would have a material effect on the financials. The Company has accrued approximately $3,000 in penalties associated with delinquent filings. Although Management believes that its estimates are reasonable, no assurance can be given that the final tax outcome of these matters will not be different than that which is reflected in our tax provisions. Ultimately, the actual tax benefits to be realized will be based upon future taxable earnings levels, which are very difficult to predict. The income tax provision consists of the following: August 31, ----------------------------- 2014 2013 -------- -------- Federal Current $ -- $ -- Deferred -- -- -------- -------- $ -- $ -- ======== ======== State and local Current $ -- $ -- Deferred -- -- -------- -------- Income tax provision $ -- $ -- ======== ======== Prior to May 9, 2012, our primary operating company was a limited liability company not subject to tax. At August 31, 2014, the Company had a net operating loss ("NOL") carry forward in the amount of approximately $1.4 million, available to offset future taxable income through 2034. The Company established valuation allowances equal to the full amount of the deferred tax assets due to the uncertainty of the utilization of the operating losses in future periods. The Company has not filed its federal tax returns since inception and therefore, the NOL's will not be available to offset future taxable income until the tax returns are filed with the respective federal tax authorities. Deferred tax assets/liabilities were as follows: August 31, August 31, 2014 2013 ---------- ---------- Net operating loss carry forward $ 534,000 $ 166,000 Valuation allowance (534,000) (166,000) ---------- ---------- Total $ -- $ -- ========== ========== The valuation allowance was increased by $368,000 during fiscal year ended August 31, 2014. A reconciliation of the Company's effective tax rate as a percentage of income before taxes and federal statutory rate for the periods ended August 31, 2014 and 2013 is summarized below. 42 2014 2013 -------- -------- Federal statutory rate (34.0)% (34.0)% State income taxes, net of federal benefits (3.7)% (3.7)% Derivatives, and other permanent differences 33.8% 28.4 % Valuation allowance 3.9% 9.3% -------- -------- Effective tax rate --% --% ======== ======== The Company may be assessed penalties and interest related to the non-filing of income tax returns. Such assessments would be treated as a provision of income tax expense on the financial statements. At August 31, 2014, the tax returns for 2011 through 2013 have not been filed and are therefore subject to future audit. No income tax expense has been realized as a result of operations and no income tax penalties and interest have been accrued related to uncertain tax positions. NOTE 9 - CAPITAL STOCK The Company has 100,000,000 shares of preferred stock authorized and none have been issued or designated as of August 31, 2014 and 2013. Subsequent to the year ended August 31, 2014, the Company designated a class of preferred stock. For a disclosure of the rights, liquidation preferences, and privileges of the preferred stock, see Note 13. The Company has 3,000,000,000 shares of common stock authorized. All shares of common stock are non-assessable and non-cumulative, with no preemptive rights. During the year ending August 31, 2013 the Company entered into a stock buy-back plan, whereby 1,785,900 shares were repurchased for $55,000 cost. The shares remain in the name of the Company until such time as they are cancelled. During year ending August 31, 2013 the Company issued warrants to purchase approximately 371,667,000 shares of common stock, at a strike price of $.0015 per share, in association with a financing arrangement. Warrants may be exercised in a cashless option. The company valued these warrants using the Black-Scholes method, resulting in an interest expense of $355,800 and a corresponding derivative liability. During the year ending August 31, 2014, the cashless option was exercised and 225,333,333 shares were issued, and $403,800 of derivative liability was reclassified to stockholders' deficit. For the year ended August 31, 2014, the Company issued 14,541,570 shares of its common stock to employees and consultants, at the fair market value at the date of the grant based on the quoted market price. Compensation expenses were recognized in the amount of $148,324. Stock compensation for the periods presented were issued for past services provided; accordingly, all shares issued are fully vested, and there is no unrecognized compensation associated with these transactions. The Company has issued shares and warrants to individuals for the purpose of compensation during the years ending August 31, 2014 and 2013, in the amounts of $268,271 and $355,800, respectively. On March 27, 2014, the Company issued 25,000,000 options for services to its officers and directors under its 2013 Option Plan. The Company valued the options using the Black Scholes Model, which resulted in the recognition of $119,947 of compensation expense. Assumptions used in the calculation of the option value are as follows: Weighted Average: Stock Price $0.0048 Strike Price $0.0048-$0.0053 Dividend rate 0.0% Risk-free interest rate 1.70% Expected lives (years) 5.0 Expected price volatility 313.78% Forfeiture Rate 0.00% During the year ended August 31, 2014, the Company exchanged 1,827,266,132 shares of its common stock for $1,065,630 of convertible notes payable and accrued interest at contractual rates, and $5,246,963 of derivative liability was reclassified to stockholders' deficit. 43 During the year ended August 31, 2014, the company settled accrued interest expense in the amount of $22,919 in exchange of 38,197,717 shares of common stock and recognized a loss of $22,918. NOTE 10 - RELATED PARTIES Benny R. Powell was an officer and director of both parties to the merger. (See Note 1). Mr. Powell continues as the Company's president, chief executive officer, and director post-merger. Mr. Powell also provides rent and other services to the Company through his other ventures. The Company purchases print materials through a wholly owned entity, Active Media Publishing, Inc., ("AMPI") of Mr. Powell. AMPI has certain arrangements with overseas printing companies, whereby the printing is facilitated to the Company. Agreement with AMPI states processing is at near cost prices on a non-exclusive basis. During the years ended August 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company purchased print media in the amount of $33,360 and $165,540. Keenspot Entertainment, LLC, a company owned by our director Chris Crosby, has been paid or accrued commissions in the amount of approximately $4,042 and $6,785 for the years ended August 31, 2014 and 2013. As of August 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company was indebted to Mr. Powell for advances and payments made on behalf of the Company in support of operations, in the amount of $58,839 and $39,187, respectively. The Company does not have employment contracts with its controlling shareholder who also is the Company's president and chief executive officer, although it has independent contractor agreements with its other officers. We also from time to time have retained Glass House Graphics, a sole proprietorship owned by David Campiti, our Chief Operating Officer and a member of the Board, to provide creative services for us. We paid an aggregate of $56,660 and $2,035 to Glass House Graphics in the fiscal years ended August 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The amounts and terms of the above transactions may not necessarily be indicative of the amounts and terms that would have been incurred had comparable transactions been entered into with independent third parties. NOTE 11 - BUSINESS SEGMENTS The Company generates revenues from three service offerings: Advertising, Book Publishing, and Creative. The Company's management measures its performance by revenue lines and does not allocate its selling, general and administrative expenses to each revenue offering. A summary of the lines of revenue are as follows: August 31, ------------------------------- 2014 2013 ---------- ---------- Revenues: Advertising $ -- $ 6,842 Book publishing -- 253,146 Creative -- 237,498 ---------- ---------- -- 497,486 ---------- ---------- Cost of Sales: Advertising $ -- $ 5,843 Book publishing -- 195,651 Creative -- 74,196 Inventory write-down to lower of cost or market 80,629 -- ---------- ---------- $ 80,629 $ 275,690 ========== ========== 44 August 31, ------------------------------- 2014 2013 ---------- ---------- Gross Profit: Advertising $ -- $ 999 Book publishing -- 57,495 Creative -- 163,302 ---------- ---------- Inventory write-down to lower of cost or market (80,629) 221,796 ---------- ---------- $ (80,629) $ 221,796 ========== ========== NOTE 12 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES In the normal course of business, the Company may become a party to litigation matters involving claims against the Company. On May 13, 2013, George Sharp ("Plaintiff") filed a Complaint in San Diego Superior Court, Central District, Case No. 37-2013-00048310-CU-MC-CTL, against 14 companies, including us (collectively, "Defendants"). We were served with the Complaint on May 23, 2013. The Complaint alleges that the Plaintiff received unsolicited promotional emails being sent by Defendant, Victory Mark Corp. Ltd., discussing the other 13 corporate Defendants, including us. The Plaintiff is seeking liquidated damages in the amount of $1,000 for each email he received for a total of $1,204,000 collectively for all Defendants. The Company is defending this action vigorously and believes that the matter is without legal merit. The Company cannot determine the ultimate outcome of this matter at this time. We are required to pay a $25,000 civil money penalty to the SEC based upon a finding that during the reporting period we violated Section 13(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 13a-11 thereunder. The Order is available at www.sec.gov. IN THE MATTER OF RED GIANT ENTERTAINMENT, INC., SEC Admin. Proc. File No. 3-16249 (Nov. 5, 2014). NOTE 13 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS ISSUANCES OF PREFERRED STOCK As of November 6, 2014, the Company designated Series Z Preferred Stock and entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the "SPA") with Mark Fischbach under which we agreed to issue to Mr. Fischbach (i) 30,000,000 shares of our common stock (the "Common Shares"); and (ii) 5,000,000 shares of our proposed Series Z Preferred Stock, with rights, privileges and preferences as set forth below (the "Series Z Preferred Shares") (collectively with the Common Shares, the "Shares") for an aggregate price of $200,000 (the "Purchase Price"). We closed on this transaction on November 12, 2014. Mr. Fischbach is entitled appoint one member of our Board. Mr. Fischbach has been appointed to our Board contingent on the Closing pursuant to this right. As of December 23, 2014, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the "SPA") with our director and officer Benny R. Powell under which we agreed to issue to Mr. Powell 5,000,000 shares of our Series Z Preferred Stock, with rights, privileges and preferences as set forth below (the "Shares") in exchange for payment of $150,000.00 (the "Purchase Price"). We closed on this transaction on December 22, 2014. Each Series Z Preferred Share is entitled to a liquidation preference equal to the original purchase price of the Series Z Preferred Shares ($0.03 per share). In addition, subject to the applicable rules and published guidance of a national securities exchange or automated inter-dealer quotation system on which our common stock may in the future be listed or quoted (the "Listing Rules"), and for so long as investor continues to hold Series Z Preferred Shares, the holder will be entitled to 100:1 super-voting rights on all matters submitted to a vote of our stockholders, subject to adjustment. The Company retains the option of redeeming the Series Z Shares to the extent that we reasonably determine that the above rights would impede our ability to be listed or quoted under the Listing Rules. 45 CONVERSION OF DEBT, SHARE ISSUANCES Since the year end, we converted notes and accrued interest of approximately $154,000 into 317,303,879 shares of our common stock at contractual rates. In accordance with convertible note agreements, delinquent filings of our annual and quarterly reports are subject to default provisions. During the period from August 31, 2014 through the date of filing we estimate these costs to be approximately $152,000, which satisfaction will require additional issuance of common stock, in accordance with conversion terms of those agreements. We estimate that an additional 315,000,000 shares of common stock will be required to be issued in satisfaction of these terms. 46 ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE None. ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES EVALUATION OF DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES Benny R. Powell, our Chief Executive Officer, President, Chief Financial Officer, and Secretary, and a member of the Board, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) as of the end of period covered by this Annual Report. Based upon such evaluation, Mr. Powell concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms, and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including Mr. Powell, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING There were no changes to our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that occurred during the period covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. MANAGEMENT REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of our financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Management assessed our internal control over financial reporting as of August 31, 2014, the end of our fiscal-year. Management based its assessment on criteria established in Internal Control--Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Management's assessment included evaluation of elements such as the design and operating effectiveness of key financial reporting controls, process documentation, accounting policies, and our overall control environment. Based on our assessment, management has concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of the end of the fiscal-year to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external reporting purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. We reviewed the results of management's assessment with the Board. A material weakness is a control deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. The material weaknesses identified are disclosed below: * We do not have an audit committee or any other governing body to oversee management. * Documentation of proper accounting procedures is not present and fundamental elements of an effective control environment were not present as of August 31, 2014, including formalized monitoring procedures. * While we have five officers, there is still no segregation of duties with respect to internal controls, no management oversight, and no additional persons reviewing control documentation, and no control documentation is being produced at this time. 47 * We were unable to complete our audit for the year-ended August 31, 2014 and the filing of this Annual Report within the time required by applicable securities regulations. INHERENT LIMITATIONS ON EFFECTIVENESS OF CONTROLS Our management does not expect that our disclosure controls or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control system's objectives will be met. The design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Further, because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Controls can also be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls is based in part on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Projections of any evaluation of controls effectiveness to future periods are subject to risks. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with policies or procedures. Because we are a smaller reporting company, the rules and regulations of the SEC do not require that we include a report of our independent registered public accounting firm regarding our internal control over financial reporting.

TERM OF OFFICE Our by-laws provide that all directors hold office until the next annual stockholder's meeting or until their death, resignation, retirement, removal, disqualification, or until their successors have been elected and qualified. Our officers serve at the will of the Board.

MEETINGS OF THE BOARD AND INFORMATION REGARDING COMMITTEES There currently are no committees of the Board. We believe the functions of any audit, compensation or nominating and corporate governance committees can be adequately performed by the Board. The Board held twenty-two meetings by teleconference in the fiscal year ended August 2014. All directors attended 100% of such meetings of the Board of Directors other than Mr. Fischbach, who was not appointed to the Board of Directors until November 2014.

CODE OF ETHICS We have adopted a Code of Ethics for Senior Financial Officers to promote ethical conduct by our senior financial officers. Our sole senior financial officer is Benny R. Powell, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer. We expect our senior financial officer to act with honesty and integrity, including the ethical handling of actual or apparent conflicts of 50 interest between personal and professional relationships; to provide full, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure in reports and documents filed with the SEC as well as other public communications; to comply with all applicable laws, rules and regulations; and to promote adherence to our Code of Ethics. We will provide a copy of this document to any person, without charge, upon receipt of a request addressed to us at Red Giant Entertainment, Inc., 614 E. Hwy 50, Suite 235, Clermont, Florida 34711. COMPLIANCE WITH SECTION 16(A) OF THE EXCHANGE ACT Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires that our officers and directors and persons who own more than 10% of our common stock, file reports of ownership and changes in ownership with the SEC. Based solely on our review of the SEC's EDGAR database, copies of such forms received by us, or written representations from certain reporting persons, we believe that during the fiscal year ended August 31, 2014, the following delinquencies have occurred:

Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with the rules of the SEC and generally includes voting or investment power with respect to securities. Shares of common stock are deemed to be outstanding and to be beneficially owned by the person listed below for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of the person, but are not treated as outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of any other person, if that person has the right to acquire beneficial ownership of such shares within 60 days of the date of this Annual Report. Unless otherwise indicated below, the address of each beneficial owner is c/o Red Giant Entertainment, Inc., 614 Hwy. 50, Suite 235, Clermont, Florida 34711. Unless otherwise indicated below, we believe that each of the persons listed in the table (subject to applicable community property laws) has the sole power to vote and to dispose of the shares listed opposite the shareholder's name. All calculations are based on 2,887,564,631 shares of common stock outstanding as of February 22, 2015.

In the future, we intend to enter into agreements with our officers and directors and their affiliates to obtain co-ownership or other rights to properties that our officers and their affiliates have allowed us to showcase on our website and will disclose any material agreements at the time we enter into any such agreements as required under the Exchange Act. PRINTING AGREEMENT WITH ACTIVE MEDIA On March 13, 2013, we entered into a Printing Agreement with Active Media, an entity controlled by our Chief Executive Officer, President, Chief Financial Officer, Secretary, and a member of the Board, Benny R. Powell. This Printing Agreement reduces to writing the oral understanding between us and Active Media under which Active Media agreed to provide printing services to us at near cost prices on a non-exclusive basis. We paid an aggregate of $115,665.28 to Active Media in the fiscal year ended August 31, 2013. 54 EXCLUSIVE WEB PUBLISHING CONTRACT WITH KEENSPOT We have published properties online through websites hosted by Keenspot Entertainment, LLC, under an Exclusive Web Publishing Contract dated June 30, 2010 between Benny R. Powell and Keenspot, a general partnership co-founded by Chris Crosby, our Chief Technology Officer and a member of the Board, co-founded, in which Mr. Crosby serves as Chief Executive Officer. Under this Agreement, Keenspot sells advertising on websites featuring our properties at an agreed upon cost per thousand verified impressions (CPM) to our Keenspot sites whereby advertisers pay based on the number of times the target audience is exposed to the advertisement. The particular CPM rate varies based upon bids by advertisers and other customary factors. In exchange for providing advertising, hosting, IT, and sales management services, Keenspot receives a 50% commission on advertising revenue. In the fiscal years ended August 31, 2013 and 2012, Keenspot received $6,785 and $9,975, respectively from this agreement. STOCK EXCHANGE AGREEMENT WITH COMICGENESIS In March 2013, we entered into a Stock Exchange Agreement with ComicGenesis, a limited liability company owned at that time by Chris Crosby, our Chief Technology Officer and member of the Board, under which we acquired 5,000,000 shares of ComicGenesis from Mr. Crosby in exchange for 500,000 shares of our common stock from shares held by our President, Benny R. Powell. ComicGenesis was not valued, as it was essentially an inactive entity. Shares exchanged for ComicGenesis were valued at a fair market value of $45,000, the fair market value at the date of exchange. The shares exchanged were contributed by Mr. Powell and the related indebtedness was forgiven to the Company as a contribution of capital. The related investment in ComicGenesis is eliminated in consolidation. OTHER ARRANGEMENTS WITH OFFICERS During the year ending August 31, 2013, Benny R. Powell, our President and Chief Executive Officer, has advanced assets in the amount of $39,187 to us, which includes transfer of 3 million shares of common stock, personally held, to an unrelated vendor for securing services. Those services were valued at $36,000, per the agreement and the fair value of the stock at the date of the exchange. As of August 31, 2013 and 2012, we were indebted to Mr. Powell in the amount of $39,187 and $0, respectively. Our officers provide office and storage space to us at no charge through their other ventures. We also from time to time have retained Glass House Graphics, a sole proprietorship owned by David Campiti, our Chief Operating Officer and a member of the Board, to provide creative services for us. We paid an aggregate of $2,035 to Glass House Graphics in the fiscal year ended August 31, 2013. On September 12, 2013, the Company received a loan from Benny Powell, an officer and director of the Company, in the amount of $4,000, $886.37 of which has been repaid as of December 5, 2013. DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE We apply the definition of "independent director" provided under the Listing Rules of The NASDAQ Stock Market LLC ("NASDAQ"). Under NASDAQ rules, the Board has considered all relevant facts and circumstances regarding our directors and has affirmatively determined that none of the directors serving on the Board are independent of us under NASDAQ rules, as each director also serves as an officer of us. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS Under our Articles of Incorporation and bylaws of the corporation, we may indemnify an officer or director who is made a party to any proceeding, including a lawsuit, because of his or her position, if he or she acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in our best interest. We may advance expenses incurred in defending a proceeding. To the extent that the officer or director is successful on the merits in a proceeding as to which he or she is to be indemnified, we must indemnify him or her against all 55 expenses incurred, including attorney's fees. With respect to a derivative action, indemnity may be made only for expenses actually and reasonably incurred in defending the proceeding, and if the officer or director is judged liable, only by a court order. The indemnification is intended to be to the fullest extent permitted by the laws of the State of Nevada. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to our directors, officers, and controlling persons pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, we have been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.
