"Heavy Water" opens THURSDAY (June 13) on 550-screens!

Greetings HHSE Friends & Followers - We congratulate director MICHAEL OBLOWITZ and our friends at REDBULL MEDIA HOUSE on this week's launch of HEAVY WATER via Fathom Events to more than 550 theatres across the U.S.A.  We are honored to be working again on our third feature film title with REDBULL and our second releasing project with director MICHAEL OBLOWITZ.

Following this week's nationwide theatrical launch venture with Fathom, HHSE will be implementing an Awards-Qualifying Run and Promotion to showcase "HEAVY WATER" as a contender for BEST DOCUMENTARY FEATURE - 2019, for the major awards.

Previous projects for HHSE with Redbull include the 200+ print theatrical opening of "ON ANY SUNDAY: THE NEXT CHAPTER" and the DVD / BluRay release of "RIDE UNITED."

Prior projects with director Michael Oblowitz include the current theatrical release of "FRANK AND AVA" (which launched back in December, and is continuing to add theatres throughout the summer). 

HEAVY WATER is an outstanding film, and among the greatest "surf" movies of all time. We are honored to be handling this awards campaign, and look forward to seeing the audience reaction this Thursday!

HHSE: Winning the War against False & Fraudulent Foreign Judgments

Greetings HHSE Friends & Followers - We realize it's been frustrating for many of our longs, as we have not been authorized to release the details of the various legal maneuvers and activities regarding the disposition of false and fraudulently obtained foreign judgments against the company.

Absent of knowing the company's specific strategic information, it's easy for the chorus of stock "naysayers" to predict the worst... and repeat the same baloney from the past ten-years that these out-of-state judgments are very, very bad, and "oooohhh, you'd better sell me your HHSE shares now!"

However, for those of us living in the real-world, HHSE has shown a consistently positive result in contesting, settling or completely dismissing foreign judgments, especially when based on defaults or plaintiff misrepresentations. The Arkansas Code allows for foreign / sister-state judgments to be reviewed - and if merited - adjudicated within the State of Arkansas, and afford debtors with a variety of response opportunities and supporting regulations (including Ark. Code Ann. § 16-66-301), in support of proceedings against foreign judgments.

Sometimes, however, it's just as easy to file in the original State of a particular court's jurisdiction.  In the case of JSJ Investments vs. Hannover House, our Arkansas attorney and our Texas attorney both agreed that the evidence of wrong-doing by JSJ was so clear and so severe, that filing in Texas (rather than Arkansas) might result in sanctions against JSJ and damages and legal fees for the benefit of Hannover House.  Accordingly, the declaration (below) - along with an attorney's cover motion - is in process within the Texas courts to remove the JSJ judgment and to seek damages against them.

Without telegraphing the details of specific legal strategies in the other foreign judgments, we can provide a simple one-liner summary at this time:

1).  BEDROCK - Company entered into three agreements that were fully "integrated" (like the three legs of a stool). Bedrock performed on only ONE of three elements, and failed to fund the other two, thus triggering a breach of non-payment by HHSE on the first item. Additionally, Bedrock appears to have fraudulently misrepresented that the sum of $300,000 was "loaned" to the predecessor company (Target Development Group, Inc.), which representation was never supported, but which provided the basis for Bedrock's demand for 200-MILLION shares of TDGI (HHSE) stock.

2).  LEWIN - Company had no agreement with Lewin against which such a foreign claim can be supported. Absent of an actual agreement into evidence, this foreign judgment appears unlikely to  meet the standards to make it incontestable in Arkansas.

3).  ORIGIN RELEASING - Company was induced into a settlement agreement last fall based upon a distribution agreement that Origin brought into evidence, which contained a variety of "hand-written" changes to the deal-terms which were signed and initialed only by an Origin representative. Hannover House was unable to contest the veracity of this agreement placed into evidence because we could not find a 'clean' executed copy without these hand-written changes in the deal terms. However, such evidence of a clean, executed contract was located a few months later, as a copy of the unaltered document had been provided to a third party licensor and since made available back to HHSE. Accordingly, the Origin matter can be re-opened for adjudication in Arkansas.

Any other current or ongoing legal disputes will simply be disclosed in the Form 10, along with management's assessment of the risk levels, if any, to the company.

An example of a non-relevant legal matter is "Interstar Releasing" - a fraudulently obtained California judgment from a Baltimore individual named Barry Strudwick. While this entity holds a false claim for a "large" dollar volume judgment, the claim amount was obtained by Strudwick through his actions of making knowingly false representations to the California court.. and as such, this judgment can be immediately stopped in Arkansas and re-opened (which is why this party refuses to attempt to enforce the judgment in Arkansas). Hannover House will continue to disclose the Interstar matter at the actual amount earned and tendered ($27,000) and will footnote that the inflated and fraudulent California judgment amount is unenforceable and potentially actionable for the benefit of HHSE in seeking reputational damages against Mr. Strudwick.

The elimination of these foreign judgment matters has a positive benefit to the company's balance sheet as well as to the enthusiasm for new shareholders to embrace the new business model.  HHSE will no longer be acquiring micro-budget and low-budget films from novice producers in the future.  These titles have minimal commercial value - and often result in ludicrous litigation claims against the company. There's no upside to dealing with producers of small titles, as there's no sales potential in the current marketplace that eschews DVD sales for the currently growing model of digital streaming.

The future revenue streams for HHSE will be driven by a handful of HHSE-produced (or facilitated) MAJOR features (thus, without any third-party majority owners), and with the incredibly exciting, multi-studio streaming site, MyFlix. We cannot be assured that someone in the future will never again file a frivolous / baseless or outright fraudulent claim against HHSE.  But we can state that it will not be from activities relating to the DVD release of micro-budgeted films that in recent years have generated little or no net sales! That former business model is shelved!

ONWARD!!

Hannover House - Blog Update / Week Ending June 2, 2019

Greetings HHSE Friends & Followers - Management has endured some criticisms lately for our recent actions in making limited updates to this BLOG (and our virtual cessation of formal press releases). We're told that such periods of information black-outs tend to "feed the naysayers" into making ever more ridiculous prognostications and claims on stock chat boards, such as I-Hub (which site has no requirement for its posters to make factually accurate statements - unlike the higher standards for accuracy and truthfulness that public company officers must attain). 

It would be so much easier for public company officers in general to "just make stuff up" - like the chat board naysayers.  FORTUNATELY, it's only the weak and scared Internet trolls that hide behind fake identities on chat boards. It takes a far greater individual with moral fortitude and sincere conviction to stand up as the public face behind a company, and to put their name and signature behind a public proclamation or disclosure statement.

So, here I am, ERIC PARKINSON, proud to be C.E.O. of Hannover House, Inc. and our affiliated labels. I am REQUIRED BY LAW to post accurate and truthful statements about Hannover House and our activities, and I do my best to keep our loyal and cherished "longs" up to date on all of our activities. My cell phone is 818-481-5277, and my email is: Eric@HannoverHouse.com.  I'm very accessible, and while I will never reveal any proprietary or non-public information, at least you know that I'm available to speak to shareholders and proud of what we are pursuing, achieving and striving to attain.

Next time you see a gnarly I-Hub attack on HHSE, or any of its managers, call out the poster. Tell them to STAND BEHIND THEIR STATEMENTS PUBLICLY, just like the HHSE management. Tell them to post a name, email and telephone number to show their COMMITMENT to whatever it is that they are saying. Parkinson has put himself out there, publicly, almost every week for the past ten years. IF A CHAT BOARD ATTACKER WILL NOT STAND BEHIND THEIR POSTS, then you KNOW that they are pedaling 100% B.S. and that they are a short-seller or PPS manipulator seeking to MISINFORM and DISCOURAGE shareholders. This is the easiest test in the world:  tell a chat board attacker to STAND BEHIND THEIR ATTACKS, or they will have self-outed as PPS manipulative troll.  Period.

Completely contrary to the naysayer's narrative - one could surmise that a period of information black-out may be occurring because the company has some very material events in motion that cannot be discussed?  Perhaps there's a major financing deal in motion for three "event level" feature films, and HHSE management doesn't want to usurp a well-staged release of information?  Perhaps there's a jaw-dropping deal with MyFlix that could propel the company (and stock) to unforeseen new heights?  Perhaps the Form 10 and S1 could be filed momentarily - triggering a likely spike to the stock and a dramatic overhaul of the company's resources and upside?  We could only pity the fool who would be scrambling to cover short sales after any one of those scenarios... much less the impact if all occurred on or about the same moment in time.

REGARDING THE FORM 10 - HHSE has no apprehension whatsoever that the Form 10 financials will conform to the standards set forth by the S.E.C., as our top-shelf auditing firm has multiple offices, dozens of auditors and handles many very large public companies. Additionally, we have been in communication with the S.E.C. Division of Corporate Finance, and are confident that we have addressed all requirements for the registration. For what it's worth, anyone with a computer can "google" their office location.

REGARDING MAJOR FEATURES - HHSE has determined that low-budget indie features without significant stars are no longer a viable product category. Accordingly, the company's focus on the development and financing of event level features (meriting wide theatrical release) is a business model with multiple revenue streams for the company. For what it's worth, none of our three major features have had any sort of "PPM" offering utilized for funding. They are each being funded with presales of specific distribution rights and film incentive programs.

REGARDING MYFLIX - The marketing addage that "momentum creates momentum" certainly applies to MyFlix as the volume of supplier partners and programming that is now part of this new streaming venture has made the set-up and launch far more difficult and costly. But even DISNEY / FOX (with almost unlimited financial resources) had to move their streaming site launch date from MARCH to this coming NOVEMBER.  So, while a streaming site with 100 titles would be fast and easy to launch... a consumer brand like MyFlix, with 12,000+ titles and 40+ suppliers is a logistics challenge. But what an incredible problem to have!

THINGS WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED NOT TO PUBLICLY DISCLOSE:  

a).  STATUS OF FOREIGN / FRAUDULENT JUDGMENTS - Our attorney's are addressing the remaining issues of "foreign judgments" earned under fraudulent or contestable circumstances. We are required to have made reasonable responses (or resolutions) for our Form 10 - but in the short term, have been advised to not telegraph the timing or content of such activities and filings.

b).  FINANCING PARTNERS ON MAJOR FEATURES - Again, our attorney's advise that we refrain from advance disclosure of the sources, amounts and monetization activities relating to the funding for these important, event-level pictures.

c).  CAST MEMBERS FOR MAJOR FEATURES - Again, we are advised that advanced, public disclosure of major star attachments for these important features has no benefit to HHSE.

d).  FINANCING STRUCTURE FOR MYFLIX - Despite lots of shareholder emails about this subject, the upside for a successful launch of MyFlix is so great for HHSE that we simply must be disciplined and not disclose more than is required under S.E.C. rules at this time.

So, that's the update for this week... there's a lot in motion and it's all pretty astounding. We'd love to share more of the details with our shareholders, but the benefits at this moment in time do not outweigh the risks that such improperly timed news might incur.

Hold tight, you won't be waiting long.

Proud & Relentless Warrior for HHSE Success!
He's a REAL PERSON and he stands behind all HHSE disclosures.

(NOTE:  Parkinson's cell phone voice mail only holds 30-messages at a time.  During regular business hours, Eric is USUALLY on a prescheduled call. Therefore, it's best to send an email first to request a call time, as a random, unscheduled call is likely to run into one of the prescheduled calls, which will then either send it to voice mail or get it rejected as his voice mail fills up every hour or two. Email first to schedule a call... it's that easy!)

HHSE Compliance / OTC Markets

Good Morning HHSE Friends & Followers - We received an email confirmation this morning from the OTC Markets that our year-end filings were finally approved under full compliance under the new disclosure requirements. The biggest delay was the belief by the OTC Markets that HHSE had neglected to "fill out" the Item 3 Chart of STOCK ISSUANCES over the prior two years. They could NOT believe that an OTC Pink company had VIRTUALLY ZERO STOCK ISSUANCES in the prior two years, and therefore, held-up approval of our filing until we filled out their Item 3 Table. It was not until after the Transfer Agent verified that HHSE had NOT issued any stock in the past two years - in fact, NO SHARE ISSUANCES in the prior 42-months - that the OTC Markets accepted our filing as complete.

Accordingly, at some point today, the "Yield" sign will be replaced with the customary "OTC PINKS" symbol on the HHSE OTCMarkets page.

We thank our shareholders for their patience during this process.

Onward!

New OTC Markets Annual Disclosure Format

Greetings HHSE Friends & Followers - immediately after restoration of our access subscription, Hannover House filed the annual report with the OTC Markets last week. Accordingly, we were surprised that the dreaded "Stop Sign" was still appearing on our OTC Equity Summary for HHSE.  On Friday, we were contacted by the OTC compliance team with an explanation: the format that Hannover House has utilized for annual filings for the prior eight years no longer meets the new layout and disclosure requirements now imposed for OTC equities.  

In compliance with these new guidelines, the 12-31-2018 information has been reformatted and expanded (and deleted) to meet new requirements.  

If you go to the Hannover House page on the OTC Markets - and click onto "disclosure" - you will see this new and revised annual filing. With this formatting and disclosure issue now resolved, we anticipate that the "Current Reporting" status will be promptly restored!

It's interesting to see what the OTC markets seems now more interested in knowing - as well as the prior disclosures and corporate activity descriptions that they are no longer as concerned about. These new disclosure rules speak more to most of the other OTC companies than to HHSE. Disclosures about shares issued in the past two years really do not apply to HHSE... as we had not issued any shares from August 2015 until February 2019 (a period of forty-two months of no change in share count). 


We're in the final countdown to our registration filing... so keep up the faith and we can all share in the rewards!

OTC Markets - Restoration of "Current Reporting" Status for OTC: HHSE

Greetings HHSE Shareholders - we were informed just this morning that our application for reinstatement to the OTC Markets (from April 9), has been DELAYED due to a new requirement for the attachment of a shareholder's list.  Accordingly, we have reached out to Standard Registrar for the most recent summary of shareholders, and we will promptly provide this to the OTC Markets.  It is our hope that this final step will result in the restoration of our access, and the ability to post our annual report (12-31-2018), which will return us to "current reporting" status.

Updates will be made if relevant, new information is provided. Onward...

The Transformation of HHSE....

Greetings Friends & Followers of Hannover House (OTC: HHSE).  As we enter this last day of the calendar quarter, HHSE management is giving thanks for the opportunity we have been given to build and transform the Company in this evolving world marketplace. 

The company's struggle as an "independent film distributor" has generated only inconsistent results, with ever diminishing consumer demand for physical DVD units in the face of "better values" being offered from digital streaming services.  We have fought valiantly - trying different marketing strategies, and expanding into theatrical releases in the hopes of capturing those prior sales achievements that were obtained in prior years. But alas, consumers and audiences have grown demanding and tight. The proliferation of the Internet has provided an instantaneous means of "sinking" indie films - even though most indie releases are not intended for mainstream audiences - and this has further exacerbated the decline of the indie film community. 

So, what is the solution to building HHSE into a successful media company?  With each passing day, we grow more convinced that the MYFLIX streaming venture - combining over 12,000 titles from 45+ separate suppliers (including three major studios!) - is the solution to monetizing entertainment in today's digital and "instant gratification for cheap" marketplace.  

In the past few weeks, both WALMART and APPLE have announced their intention to embrace the digital streaming industries... both with business plans complementary to, and not directly competitive with MYFLIX.  The world's largest companies are NOW recognizing what we identified 5-years ago? 

This is why we feel that we are at THE RIGHT PLACE, AT THE RIGHT TIME. 

Yes, there will be some cleaning-up remaining from the prior business plan. Some releases that did not perform under these new market conditions can result in the producers "blaming the distributor" for poor market conditions... when in reality, it's just the nature of where indie films are at this moment in time.  These old remnants of a prior business plan are being addressed and resolved - so that they do not pose an unreasonable burden or obstacle to the progress of the new business model.

So, for the support we have received from our shareholders these past 25-years.... and for the exciting new opportunity that MYFLIX now represents.... we offer our sincerest thanks and gratitued to our loyal supporters.

-- FRED SHEFTE / ERIC PARKINSON
