Production, Distribution and Fulfillment

Several independent printers in Spain currently print most of our magazines, books, brochures and DVD covers. Printing costs vary based upon the price of component raw materials. The principal raw materials necessary for publication of our magazines are coated and uncoated paper. Paper prices are affected by a variety of factors, including demand, capacity, pulp supply and by general economic conditions. Our printers have a number of paper supply arrangements and we believe that those arrangements provide an adequate supply of paper for our needs. In any event, we believe that alternative sources are available at competitive prices. With respect to pre-press and related services, we currently use our own scanning facilities. We are also using the latest technologies in this field, such as digital imposition and computer-to-plate process technology, or CTP.

We print and ship all of our proprietary magazines from Barcelona, Spain. We determine the amount of printed publications bi-monthly with input from each of our national distributors. Most of our products are packaged and delivered directly by the printer or supplier, while Milcap Media Group provides warehousing, customer service and payment processing.

Our full-time editorial and post-production staff consists of an editor-in-chief and three editors who oversee the quality and consistency of the artwork and editorial copy and manage the production schedule and printing of each issue. The majority of this work is performed on our premises in Barcelona, Spain. We have entered into agreements with some photographers and writers under which such people have agreed to provide their services to us on an exclusive basis, generally for a period of one to three years.

Production, Distribution and Fulfillment

Four independent printers in Spain currently print most of our magazines, books, brochures and video and DVD covers. Printing costs vary based upon the price of component raw materials. The principal raw materials necessary for publication of our magazines are coated and uncoated paper. Paper prices are affected by a variety of factors, including demand, capacity, pulp supply and by general economic conditions. Our printers have a number of paper supply arrangements and we believe that those arrangements provide an adequate supply of paper for our needs. In any event, we believe that alternative sources are available at competitive prices. With respect to color separation, pre-press and related services, we currently use our own scanning facilities and have the support of two independent suppliers for color separations. We are also using the latest technologies in this field, such as digital imposition and computer-to-plate process technology, or CTP. CTP eliminates the need for the production of film/color separations during the pre-printing process, saving time and money while improving quality. In simple terms, CTP allows printers to receive electronic files (both text and graphics) online and output those files directly to a plate. The result is a top quality image which takes minutes instead of hours to produce.

We print and ship all of our proprietary magazines from Barcelona, Spain. We determine the amount of printed publications bi-monthly with input from each of our national distributors. Most of our products are packaged and delivered directly by the printer or supplier, while Milcap Media Group provides warehousing, customer service and payment processing.

Our full-time editorial and post-production staff consists of an editor-in-chief, six executive editors and approximately seven editors, associate editors and assistant editors who oversee the quality and consistency of the artwork and editorial copy and manage the production schedule of each issue. The production of each issue requires the editors to coordinate the activities of a writer, a pencil artist, an inker, a colorist and a printer over a two-month period. The majority of this work is performed on our premises in Barcelona, Spain. We have entered into agreements with some photographers and writers under which such people have agreed to provide their services to us on an exclusive basis, generally for a period of one to three years.
