I'm sure just like they would never be current, never get the attorney letter complete, never rebrand the company, never get the symbol changed, blah blah blah. whatever

The company is also one of a rare few, if not the only, company that has both a "penalty" program for executives as well as the more customary "bonus" structure.
"If the top managers of companies are to be rewarded for exemplary performance," said CEO Eric Parkinson, "why shouldn't the converse be true? We stand behind our responsibilities as managers of Hannover House, and have shown our willingness to forfeit shares under penalty if we do not meet specific thresholds. We believe that good performance by managers should be rewarded, and bad performance should be punished. We cannot think of a more equitable policy that places the shareholders first."
Management Discussion Regarding the Status and Strategy Concerning the Completion of Two Years of Financial Audits for the Company; OTC Filing: (12.2.2011)
ITEM 5 Management Discussion Regarding the Status and Strategy Concerning the Completion of Two Years of Financial Audits for the Company. The Principal Managers of the Company, specifically D. Frederick Shefte (President) and Eric Parkinson (C.E.O.) held a management meeting on Monday, Dec. 5, 2011, to discuss the status and strategy of the Audit project with Hogan Taylor.
Despite repeated calls, emails and written requests, the prior principals for the Company (i.e., managers leading up to the time of the acquisition of Truman Press, Inc. / Hannover House, which acquisitions occurred occurred in late 2009, effective as of Jan. 1., 2010), have not provided supporting accounting or bank records for the Y/E 12-31-2009 or for any prior reporting periods. Additionally, Company has since determined that prior management also failed to file corporate tax returns from which essential audit beginning points could be determined. Accordingly, it appears that sufficient data is not available for a full and complete audit of activities for Target Development Group, Inc. to occur for the periods prior to new management in 2010. In respect of the requirement for two (2) years of audited financials in order to comply with most standards of “fully-reporting” status or for eligibility of a market uplisting, management has determined that the best course is to perform the audits for the years ending 12-31-2010 and 12-31-2011 instead of the prior plan of including Y/E/ 2009 as one of the qualifying periods.
At present, all data and records for the Y/E 12-31-2010 have been compiled for Hogan Taylor. With respect to the Y/E 12-31-2011, records have also been prepared and assembled through 09/30/2011, and only four weeks remain in the current reporting quarter and year. Therefore, in order to provide Hogan Taylor with sufficient supporting data for two (2) full years, the decision was made to complete the audits for the full years 2010 and 2011. In order to expedite the delivery of 2011 financials to Hogan Taylor, Company management will endeavor to complete the Q4 reports by Feb. 1, 2012.
(4) ... As of Dec. 2, 2011, a determination was made to utilize Hogan Taylor to conduct the two years of audits specifically for the years ending 12-31-2010 and 12-31- 2011 due to the lack of supporting documents and records relating to company activities prior to the merger / purchase-acquisition with Hannover House (Jan. 2010).

The Company has completed an application with FINRA for the rebranding of the share ticker symbol from the current "TDGI" to the new "HHSE." The Company has also taken steps to engage a major market-maker for the stock, in anticipation of the completion of the financial audits for the years ending 2010 and 2011. In audit-related news, the company has engaged a full-time Audit Control Manager, Lisa Purkayastha, to implement new tracking and reporting systems to speed up future compliance issues.

Breakdown of Dates & Shares Surrendered (proof in filings) Management Share Forfeiture Announcement; OTC Filing: (12.15.2011)
Management Comments Regarding Changes in Share Structure During Reporting Period: 1). Officers voluntarily surrendered a total of 20-million shares of stock during the reporting period, specifically 15-million from Parkinson and 5-million from Shefte.
7). OFFICER FORFEITURE OF SHARES – During 2011, both Parkinson and Shefte voluntarily surrendered shares personally owned or controlled by themselves back to Treasury Stock. The purpose of this action was to create a balancing “punishment” for non-performance, as compared to the customary public-company standard of only rewarding managerial success. As of 12-31-2011, Parkinson did not achieve the revenue goals set for him by the Board of Directors, and will permanently forfeit 10-million shares if the Company does not generate at least $10-million in gross revenues by 12-31-2012. As of 12-31-2011, Shefte did not complete the project management tasks assigned to him by the Board for the completion of the Company audits, and has 5-million shares in jeopardy until this task is completed. None of the shares forfeited by Parkinson or Shefte will be returned during calendar year 2012, even if the performance thresholds for each have been achieved.
ENGAGEMENT OF “AUDIT MANAGER” POSITION AS POSSIBLE TRANSITION INTO GENERAL MANAGER’S POST; OTC Filing: (2.22.2012)
Discussion Item a). ENGAGEMENT OF “AUDIT MANAGER” POSITION AS POSSIBLE TRANSITION INTO GENERAL MANAGER’S POST – At the recommendation of the auditors, Company has created a new position of “Audit Manager” to work full-time at the corporate offices. This position is envisioned to expedite the assembly and formatting of information required for the audit. However, and in respect of the extensive business and accounting experience of the individual engaged for this position (Lisa Purkayastha), both Parkinson and Shefte agreed that this project may serve as an ideal opportunity to expand into a “General Manager’s” position (in order to continue with new systems and maintain operational infrastructures required for regular reporting deadlines as the company moves towards uplisting and ongoing growth)
4). Conference Call – As discussed at Company’s Annual Shareholder’s Meeting in January, Company is organzing a Quarterly “Shareholder’s Conference Call” to discuss these and other, relevant issues of concern with qualified Shareholders and investors. A separate filing and press release will be posted this week to disclose the details of the Conference Call, and the manner for submitting questions.
5). New Release Schedule – At the request of Shareholders, Company will release a more formal schedule of current and upcoming title releases by month for 2012.
6). Market Maker – At the request of Shareholders, Company will expeditiously move to complete the agreement for the engagement of a “Market Maker” in the Company’s stock, which negotiations are already in process.
7). New Symbol Change to “HHSE”– At the request of Shareholders, Company will provide an update and timeline for the expected date of formal rebranding of the stock to “HHSE.
