Revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2008 increased 85% to $1,518,992 compared to $819,330 for the three months ended June 30, 2007. Net operating income was $139,459 in the second quarter of 2008 compared to $87,479 in the second quarter of 2007. Net income (loss) was $3,012,317, or $0.01 per diluted share, for the three months ended June 30, 2008 compared to $(418,023), or $(0.01) per diluted share, for the three months ended June 30, 2007. The increase in profitability was primarily due to a gain on the valuation of a derivative liability in the amount of $2,846,864 in the second quarter of 2008 compared to a loss of $425,965 for the three months ended June 30, 2007.

"Strong revenue growth in the second quarter of 2008 was primarily from our release of the flat fee title 'Garfield-World Lasagna Tour' and substantial reorders for 'Winter Sports' for the Wii," said Sirus Ahmadi, president of Conspiracy Entertainment. "The second quarter also strengthened our video game distribution and publishing agreements. We signed a deal with dtp entertainment of Germany to bring 'Summer Athletics' onto multiple gaming platforms in the third quarter. In addition, we expanded our existing relationship with leading European video games publisher, RTL games, by securing multiple new titles for distribution, sales and marketing in the US and Canada later this year."

Revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2008 were $4,759,858, an increase of 480%, compared to $819,330 for the six months ended June 30, 2007. For the six months ended June 30, 2008, Conspiracy reported net operating income (loss) of $247,498 compared to $(85,461) in the six months ended June 30, 2007. During the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, the gain (loss) on the valuation of derivative liability was ($4,669,052) and $370,866 (as restated), respectively. As a result, Conspiracy reported a net income (loss) of $(4,472,637), or $(0.09) per diluted share, for the six months ended June 30, 2008 compared to net income of $106,184, or $0.00 per diluted share, for the six months ended June 30, 2007.

"Despite having to report a substantial loss in the valuation of derivative liability for the first six months of 2008, we achieved positive net income from operations compared to a net loss one year ago. Any weakening in the US economy is being offset by our ability to source titles from leading European developers. Our relationships overseas enable us to bring popular, next-gen gaming titles for distribution and marketing in established retail channels in North America and Mexico. With several titles slated for release in 2008, our sales momentum and net operating income should continue to show accelerated improvement through the second half of 2008," said Keith Tanaka, CFO of Conspiracy Entertainment.
