Company Description

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of OperationsYou should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations together with our financial statements and the related notes and other financial information included elsewhere in this offering. Some of the information contained in this discussion and analysis, including information regarding the strategy and plans for our business, includes forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. You should review the "Risk Factors" section for a discussion of important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the results described in or implied by the forward-looking statements contained in the following discussion and analysis.OverviewThis is a production company responsible for making a new feature film titled The Wilderness Road, a historical adventure and Western. The film follows Samuel Mason (Revolutionary War hero turned bandit) and the Harpe Brothers (notorious killers) as they are chased by the law and vigilante citizens in the late 1700s and early 1800s, leading to a violent conclusion. Our story is part history, part horror, a Western like you have never seen before. Our main objective is to produce a feature film that reaches an audience year and year across the globe. We also hope this film leads to a group of films or streaming series covering the incredible history of the Natchez Trace, a subject whose surface can only be scratched with one feature film. The stories from this time and place are so rich that multiple narratives could be spun from this material. Given the Company’s limited operating history, the Company cannot reliably estimate how much revenue it will receive in the future, if any.MilestonesThe Wilderness Road LLC was organized in the State of Mississippi in May 2020.Since then, we have:

  • An experienced filmmaker who has completed over 15 feature films
  • The 1st time this story has been told in a feature film! There have been books but no feature films.
  • Incredible resources and support in the Southeastern U.S. such as locations, horses, etc.
  • Over 100 actors, riders, and living history performers ready to participate!
  • Completion and public release before the end of 2021.

Historical Results of OperationsOur company was organized in May 2020 and has limited operations upon which prospective investors may base an evaluation of its performance.

  • Revenues & Gross Margin. For the period ended May 29, 2020, the Company had revenues of $0.
  • Assets. As of May 29, 2020, the Company had total assets of $0, including $0 in cash.
  • Net Loss. The Company has had net losses of $53 for 2020.
  • Liabilities. The Company's liabilties totaled $0 for 2020.

Liquidity & Capital ResourcesAfter the conclusion of this Offering, should we hit our minimum funding target, our projected runway is 18 months before we need to raise further capital.We plan to use the proceeds as set forth in this Form C under "Use of Funds". We don’t have any other sources of capital in the immediate future.We will likely require additional financing in excess of the proceeds from the Offering in order to perform operations over the lifetime of the Company. We plan to raise capital in 6 months. Except as otherwise described in this Form C, we do not have additional sources of capital other than the proceeds from the offering. Because of the complexities and uncertainties in establishing a new business strategy, it is not possible to adequately project whether the proceeds of this offering will be sufficient to enable us to implement our strategy. This complexity and uncertainty will be increased if less than the maximum amount of securities offered in this offering is sold. The Company intends to raise additional capital in the future from investors. Although capital may be available for early-stage companies, there is no guarantee that the Company will receive any investments from investors.Runway & Short/Mid Term ExpensesThe Wilderness Road LLC cash in hand is $0, as of May 2020. Over the last three months, revenues have averaged $0/month, cost of goods sold has averaged $0/month, and operational expenses have averaged $0/month, for an average burn rate of $0 per month. Our intent is to be profitable in 18 months.

This is a new company and therefore there are no material changes or trends yet that would effect the financials. 

The expenses will be any pre-production costs on the movie including camera rental, production insurance, costume design, set design, etc. We expect to need a minimum of $50,000 to bring this project to market. We plan to release to the film about a year after finishing production. We hope (but not guarantee) to generate $20,000 in revenues 3 months after release and about $65,000 a year after being released.

All of the funds raised through Wefunder will be our sole source of capital for the production of the movie.
