IBSG INTERNATIONAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
June 30, 2008
NOTE 1 - INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The accompanying interim unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q
and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In our opinion, all adjustments (consisting of normal
recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending
December 31, 2008. For further information, refer to the financial statements and footnotes thereto included in our Form 10-KSB Report for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007.
NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The consolidated financial statements
are prepared using the accrual method of accounting. The Company has elected a calendar year end.
The preparation of financial statements in
conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and
liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
|
|
c.
|
Cash and Cash Equivalents
|
The Company considers all
highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.
General
We recognize revenue in accordance with the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants Statement of Position (“SOP”) 97-2,
“Software Revenue Recognition,” as modified by SOP 98-9 “Modifications of SOP 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition, With Respect to Certain Transactions”, and interpreted by the Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Accounting
Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 104 “Revenue Recognition”. The Company adopted Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) Issue No. 00-21, “Accounting for Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables”.
Deferred Revenue
Deferred
revenue result from fees billed to customers for which revenue has not yet been recognized or for which the conditions of the arrangement have been modified. Current deferred revenue generally represents post contract support (PCS) and training
services not yet rendered and deferred until all revenue recognition requirements are satisfied. Deferred revenue, net of current portion represents license fees for which the conditions of the arrangements have been modified, and which represent
previously recognized revenues specifically associated with certain older contracts which have been restated and will be deferred until such time as all revenue recognition requirements have been satisfied.

The Company expectation is that the receivables are fully collectible.
In the first quarter of 2007, the Company expanded its customer base outside of national governmental accounts. Due to this expansion, management has reevaluated its
allowance for doubtful accounts and sales return allowance specific to this new customer base which includes state sponsored economic development councils and other quasi-governmental agencies along with corporate based Small Business Development
Centers (SBDCs) and Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs). The addition of these types of customers generally represents a higher level of business risk than do national government customers. Accordingly, management evaluates the realization of
accounts receivable specific to this new customer base by using a percentage of sales revenue as the basis for its allowance for doubtful accounts applied consistently among all contracts generated from the new customer base. As of June 30,
2008 the allowance for doubtful accounts was $286,000.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Disclosure about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
In March 2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued State of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 161,
“
Disclosure about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, an amendment of FASB Statement
No. 133”, (SFAS No. 161). This statement requires that objectives for using derivative instruments be disclosed in terms of underlying risk and accounting designation. The Company is required to adopt SFAS No. 161 on
January 1, 2009. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of SFAS No. 161 on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
-5-
Determination of the Useful Life of Intangible Assets
In April 2008, the FASB issued Staff Position 142-3 (FSP FAS 142-3), “Determination of the Useful Life of Intangible Assets”, which amends the factors that
should be considered in developing renewal or extension assumptions used to determine the useful life of intangible assets under SFAS No. 142 “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets”. The intent of this FSP is to improve the
consistency between the useful life of a recognized intangible asset under SFAS No. 142 and the period of the expected cash flows used to measure the fair value of the asset under SFAS No. 141 (revised 2007) “Business
Combinations” and other U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of FSP FAS 142-3 on its consolidated financial statements.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Consolidated Results of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (“MD&A”) should
be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements included herein. Further, this quarterly report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes to Consolidated
Financial Statements included in its 2007 Annual Report on Form 10-KSB. In addition, you are urged to read this report in conjunction with the risk factors described herein.
Overview
IBSG International, Inc. (IBSGI) is a holding company for four software subsidiaries: Intelligent Business
Systems Group, Inc. (IBSG), a provider of turn-key digital service center software; Secure Blue, a Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX) and security software solution provider, and Intelligent Business Systems Development Inc. (IBSD), a software development,
maintenance and data storage company and IBSGI UK, LTD. (IBSGI UK), a consultant company focused on development of informational technology (IT) projects for multi-national corporations.
IBSG offers BizWorld Pro, a copyrighted and trademarked e-commerce platform, as a solution to enhance the operating efficiency and create revenue for State Small Business Development Centers (or their profit making
equivalents), business associations (e.g., Chambers of Commerce) and Fortune 1000 corporations through the licensing of its unique turnkey digital service center software. This software provides a broad range of digital budgetary,
administrative and commercial services (B2B, e-commerce, government to business and enterprise business services) on a single platform.
Secure Blue
provides an economical SOX compliance and security software suite product called Secure Blue Pro. This product is targeted to small and mid cap public companies as well as private companies that work with public companies that therefore must comply
with SOX requirements.
IBSD provides ongoing support for our other subsidiaries; IBSG, Secure Blue, and IBSGI UK. The subsidiary provides
development, system support and secure data storage, and maintains offices in both the US and India, where its current offshore development and support team is located.
IBSGI UK, a United Kingdom based subsidiary, provides business development and support to IBSGI’s international projects. IBSGI UK maintains relationships with several international government officials at
the ministry/secretary level as well as international corporations’ offset programs and provides IT projects for these corporations. IBSGI UK is engaged in international business development and consultancy in the technology sector. IBSGI
UK’s participates in international e-commerce platform (BizWorld Pro, copyrighted and trade mark protected) projects for Small-Midsized Enterprises ‘SMEs’. IBSGI’s relationship with IBSGI UK has already produced a project in
South Africa along with opportunities for similar projects in Africa, Europe, and India.
As software providers, system integrators and application service
providers, IBSG generates revenue from license sales, system modifications, systems support, and a percentage of monthly customer fees if and when a license is sold. The typical IBSG license agreement has a five-year term; however, the agreements
are updated annually and have historically been renewed upon expiration. Secure Blue is currently a dormant subsidiary and the SOX solution is anticipated to be incorporated into the BizWorld Solution and offered as a Sarbanes-Oxley solution for an
additional monthly cost per business as an optional feature. IBSGI UK, in conjunction with IBSGI, generates all international contract revenues. IBSD supports the business initiatives of all other subsidiaries and IBSGI and does not generate
revenue.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of our financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements
and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported period. A critical accounting policy is one that is both very important to the portrayal of
-8-
our financial condition and results, and requires management's most difficult, subjective or complex judgments. Typically, the circumstances that make these
judgments difficult, subjective and/or complex have to do with the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. We believe the accounting policies below represent our critical accounting policies:
|
|
•
|
|
Accounts receivable, allowance for doubtful accounts and sales returns
|
-9-
General
The
Company recognizes revenue in accordance with the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants Statement of Position (“SOP”) 97-2, “Software Revenue Recognition”, as modified by SOP 98-9 “Modifications of SOP 97-2,
Software Revenue Recognition, With Respect to Certain Transactions”, and interpreted by the Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 104 “Revenue Recognition”. The Company has also
adopted Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) No. 00-21, “Accounting for Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables”.
The Company
does not recognize revenue on software related transactions on single element arrangements and on each element of a multiple element arrangement until all of the following criteria are met:
|
1.
|
Persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, which consists of a written, non-cancelable contract signed by both the customer and us;
|
|
2.
|
The fee is fixed or determinable when we have a signed contract that states the agreed upon fee for our products and/or services, which specifies the related payment terms and
conditions of the arrangement and it is not subject to refund or adjustment;
|
|
|
a.
|
For licenses—due to the Web nature of our software, when access to the software is made available to our customer through the Internet or the software is delivered
electronically. Our arrangements are typically not contingent upon the customer providing the hardware, staff for training or scheduling conflicts in general nor do our arrangements contain acceptance clauses.
|
|
|
b.
|
For post-contract customer support—ratably over the annual service period.
|
|
|
c.
|
For professional services—as the services are performed for time and materials contracts or upon achievement of milestones on fixed price contracts.
|
|
4.
|
Collection is probable as determined by a credit evaluation, the customer’s payment history (either with other vendors or with us in the case of follow-on sales and renewals)
and financial position.
|
Master license arrangements typically represent large value “multiple element” arrangements where the
multi-year term license is packaged only in the first year with post contract support (PCS) and certain professional services. PCS includes technical support, maintenance, enhancements, upgrades and, in some cases system access. Satellite
license arrangements are typically structured similarly to the corresponding master license but the fees are less as it is technically a sub-contract of the master license. Master license holders can accept delivery either by electronic
download to their system or by accessing their software residing on our system through the Internet. Only minimal installation and training is required. PCS subsequent to year one is optional and renewable at a customer’s discretion on an
annual basis. Professional services include training and installation services are accounted for separately as they are not considered essential to the functionality of the software.
License Revenue
License revenues are primarily generated from
the sale of multi-year master license agreements to SBDCs (or their profit making equivalents) and other potential master licensees. License arrangements are typically sold with the PCS being delivered in the first year only. PCS subsequent to year
one is optional and renewable at a customer’s discretion on an annual basis. As such, the combination of these products and services represent a “multiple-element” arrangement for revenue recognition purposes in year one only.
Our revenue recognition policy for multiple-element arrangements, as described above, generally results in 65% of arrangement fee in year one being
allocated to license revenue, the delivered element. Recognition of license revenue occurs in the first month, once all the recognition criteria discussed above are met. License revenue is intended to cover the initial development cost and testing
of the software and the system.
-10-
Post-Contract Support (“PCS”) Revenue
Post-contract support includes technical support, maintenance, enhancements, upgrades and in some cases system access. License arrangements are typically sold with only
the first year of PCS included. Subsequent to year one, customers can purchase annual PCS renewals over their arrangement term, which is typically five years domestically, four years internationally. Enhancements and upgrades are made available on a
“when and if” basis and are rarely if ever based on specifically identified enhancements.
Our revenue recognition policy for multiple-element
arrangements, as described above, generally results in 35% of the initial arrangement fee being allocated to PCS in year one, the undelivered element at the time the license arrangement is entered into. Customers can elect, subsequent to year one,
to acquire PCS on an annual basis. The combination of these products and services represent a “multi-element” arrangement for revenue recognition purposes in year one only. Recognition of PCS revenue occurs ratably over the PCS service
period, once all the recognition criteria discussed above are met.
Professional Services Revenue
Professional services include training and installation services. Training and installation are separately described and priced in the license arrangement and can be
delivered at any time after the license has been conveyed.
Because of the Web nature of product delivery, little installation support is required. The
System also includes extensive on-line training capabilities (Virtual Trainer) at the time the license is conveyed and is available for every page in the System. No additional formal training on System use is required or provided. Supplemental
training, if required, is generally restricted to System administration training. Training revenues are recognized as the services are performed.
Professional services are not considered essential to the functionality of the other elements of the arrangement and are accounted for as a separate element. Professional services are recognized as the services are performed for time and
materials contracts or upon achievement of milestones on fixed price contracts. A provision for estimated losses on fixed-price professional services contracts is recognized in the period in which the loss becomes known. No losses have been recorded
to date.
Deferred Revenue
Deferred revenue
result from fees billed to customers for which revenue has not yet been recognized or for which the conditions of the arrangement have been modified. Current deferred revenue generally represents PCS and training services not yet rendered and
deferred until all requirements under SOP 97-2 are satisfied. Deferred revenue, net of current portion represents license fees for which the conditions of the arrangements have been modified, and which represent previously recognized revenues
specifically associated with certain older contracts which have been restated and will be deferred until such time as all SOP 97-2 requirements have been satisfied.
Market for our products
The potential market for the BizWorld Pro includes any entity that has a customer, vendor or
membership base comprised of small to mid size business enterprises. Alternatively, the potential markets for Secure Blue are public companies which are required to establish internal control systems or companies that require tracking of sensitive
files. All current and projected revenues for the Company are associated with the digital commerce platform, BizWorld Pro and the recurring revenues projected from both license revenues and on going monthly subscription fees from small to
mid-sized enterprises. The projected market size for BizWorld Pro is greater than $15 billion annually. No assurances can be made that such market shall be realized or result in profitability.
The market for the BizWorld Pro includes state operated small business development centers (or their profit making equivalents), business organizations such as chambers
of commerce, large corporations, and other entities which seek to help small and medium size businesses succeed. When IBSG sells a master license to a state small business development center or business association (i.e. chambers of commerce), that
entity can sell “satellite-licenses” to the other vertical markets in their respective states or markets, from which IBSG, Inc. or IBSGI UK may derive incremental revenue. This market represents a projected $2.5-$3.5 billion exclusive of
international application. No assurances can be made that such market shall be realized or result in profitability.
-11-
Small Business Development Centers (SBDCs)
Many states, in the United States (US), operate Small Business Development Centers funded by a combination of US Small Business Administration and state resources. The purpose of these centers is to provide a range of
assistance and training to the small and mid-size business sector. Many of the SBDCs have a profit making equivalent or are partners in a profit making entity. We currently have a license agreement with 11 such entities.
Fortune 1000 Corporations
Master license holders seek to sell
Corporate Sponsor satellite licenses to Fortune 1000 corporations for procurement purposes (i.e. RFPs or Tenders thru award of a bid). The license price is dependent on the size of the corporation and the number of RFPs/Tenders issued. The
license provides the Corporation with unlimited access to the constituent’s pool of SMEs in order to facilitate the large corporation's recruitment of small businesses as vendors. The System platform permits end users to interact not only with
these large corporations, but also among each other.
Government Agencies
Other government agencies routinely purchase a satellite license to use the system for procurement purposes. When these licenses are sold they are primarily for use of the Bid Management functions of the
system. This is/has been viewed by many local government municipalities and ministries (internationally) as a means of centralizing all procurements activities. As such, any government vendor or vendor of a municipality would be
compelled to join the platform as a subscriber in order to be positioned for future government RFPs/tenders.
Business Associations
The BizWorld Pro is licensed to other business associations such as local Chambers of Commerce, which has membership or offer services to small and medium size
businesses as a way of providing additional services and generates additional revenues.
Banking Institutions
Many major banking institutions maintain divisions specializing in providing banking services to small-to-medium sized businesses. These banks can add BizWorld access to
their customers to encourage their use of the internet to grow their businesses, add another revenue stream to their own business services offerings, and create an excellent new communication tool whereby the bank can pursue enhanced revenue
relationships for their existing service offerings.
Economic Development Projects
These markets reflect a combination of the above market needs. The BizWorld Data System can provide them with similar benefits and the ability to create multiple associations with the other markets in a similar
fashion as previously described.
Foreign Markets
In
2004 we signed a license agreement with an agency of the country of Nigeria. We have since positioned the product as a national solution for the support and development of the small to mid size business community (SMEs), as a centralized procurement
center not only for government but large corporations and provide access to the same by larger corporations and government entities. By providing the ability to manage developing businesses on the internet while creating a robust internet presence,
small to mid size businesses will be enabled for domestic and international business. Additional business development efforts through IBSGI UK are underway with various foreign governments although no assurances can be given that any new
business will materialize from these efforts.
-12-
Secure Blue Markets
Secure Blue targets small to mid size cap public companies. Because of the broad encompassing nature of the SOX legislation, any private company doing business with a public company, both in the US and abroad, must be SOX compliant for
those records dealing with that business. This market represents a projected value of $3-$4 billion. Currently in the US there are an estimated 10,000 small cap companies and over 10,000 private companies doing business with public
companies. No assurances can be made that such market shall be realized or result in profitability.
International Markets
Many aspects of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act have been incorporated into new European legislation which led to a large global market for SOX solutions that far exceeded US
projections. Additionally, foreign companies doing business with US public companies are also required to be SOX compliant as well. It is our objective to establish Secure Blue in the US before expanding into European and Asian markets.
-13-
Sales & Market Strategy
IBSG’s marketing efforts primarily consists of “word of mouth” referrals from existing or potential customers, targeted prospect awareness campaigns, various conventions and trade shows and cold calling
entities with resources and marketing research. The most effective and powerful marketing tool is the demonstration of the system and its comprehensive features. We have determined that demonstrations and contract negotiations are most effective
when handled on a personal basis.
To achieve our growth plans, IBSG and IBSGI UK needs to employ more business developers, present a more visible presence
at conventions, accelerate contract implementation, and acquire and import database information of SMEs/vendors from license holding entities. We also anticipate the need to provide enhanced training and marketing services to our customers, which
can best be achieved by acquiring existing service companies with expertise in that field. Additional technical staff will accelerate contract implementation and add-on work (system modifications) as the customer base is extended. There can be no
assurance that we will be able to meet our growth plans or have sufficient financial resources to provide the enhanced services.
Secure Blue was launched
in mid-April of 2005. One month later in May 2005, we began a series of online, live demonstrations to potential channel partners (i.e. accounting and law firms, brokerage firms and potential end users). Our distribution strategy has been to develop
third-party channels to publicly traded companies through professional advisors. These include investor relations firms, law firms, accountancy firms, banks, compliance consultancies, corporate finance advisors, venture capital companies and other
strategically important organizations. We are approaching these potential channel partners individually and demonstrating SOX Pro live online to create a dialogue leading to long-term business partnerships. We will continue to focus our sales
activity on third-party channels until we are satisfied we can achieve significant traction in the market place.
We continue to promote and demonstrate
SOX Pro to potential end-users where appropriate. In the longer term we have plans to build a specialist direct sales team focused on specific target sectors within the small/mid cap market selling direct or providing qualified leads to our channel
partners. There can be no assurance that Secure Blue will be able to establish satisfactory channels of distribution for its product or that the product will generate success in the marketplace.
Marketing, Sales and Support
We market our products primarily
through direct contact of potential customers, referrals from existing customers or potential customers and conferences that are market specific. The key to the marketing of the various products is the ability under the BizWorld product to enable
customers to act as channel partners through the ability to sell satellite-licenses of the system and provide revenue generating digital service centers to their customers or members. By utilizing the existing relationships between the various
government agencies and/or corporate and business associations and the end user, individual small-mid size businesses (enterprises), referred to as SMEs, the Company market through the licensing entities existing marketing or public relations
communication lines rather than directly to the SMEs. This is marketing practice is critical to the long term revenue stream established by the Company. End user pay a monthly subscription fee which are based on a minimum of $20/month/SME
(€20 /month in the European countries) of which the Company average revenue share is 50%-55%.
Secure Blue uses a direct market application focusing
primarily on the small cap public companies. Secure Blue seeks to establish channel partner arrangements with investor relation firms that primarily target the small cap market. Secure Blue also seeks to expand its marketing efforts to include
telemarketing, and direct target contact through telemarketing firms that specializes in software sales. There can be no assurance that Secure Blue will be able to establish satisfactory channels of distribution for its product, or that the product
will generate success in the marketplace. Secure Blue also seeks to expand its marketing efforts to include marketing support for both channel partners and direct sales using PR, advertising, and direct marketing techniques, once the basic
distribution infrastructure is in place. Our aim is to make SOX Pro the preferred SOX solution within the small/mid cap market, to prepare the marketplace for our channel partners, and to generate good quality, qualified leads for the sales teams.
-14-
IBSG will employ several consultant services to secure independent programming contracts. The Company will also employ a
small force of business developers to develop direct business for the Company. Most of IBSD's revenue is derived from sub contracting opportunities in the areas of maintenance, hosting, and support for IBSGI's other subsidiaries.
Customer Support
Our management believes that strong customer
support is crucial to both the initial marketing of its products and maintenance of customer satisfaction, which in turn will enhance our reputation and generate repeat orders. In addition, we believe that customer interaction and feedback involved
in our ongoing support functions provide us with information on market trends and customer
-15-
requirements that is critical to future product development. IBSG and IBSGI UK provides toll free and web site support. However, the first line of support is
built into the systems through a virtual trainer and self diagnostic feature which is enhanced by the system’s ability to provide instructions to navigate a user error or auto report a potential system “bug”. When a system
“bug” is detected, it is directed to the technical center’s program team which can correct the anomaly on-line and auto down load the correction to all systems. The virtual trainer describes the purpose of each page to the end user,
uses animation to instruct the end user on how to complete the page, and provides suggestions on where to go to next in the system. This should provide for minimum end user confusion which statistically makes up the majority of on-line help
calls (Microsoft 2005; Oracle 2006).
Secure Blue believes that effective and speedy customer support is crucial to the long-term success of SOX Pro. As a
mission-critical application, SOX Pro must be totally reliable and the support available must be of the highest order, including 24/7 support as an integral part of the SOX Pro package with an ongoing annual fee based upon a percentage of the first
years license cost. Our team, based in Florida, will provide technical support for end users and channel partners.
Research and Development
We believe that our success will depend in large part on our ability to maintain and enhance our current product lines, develop new products, maintain
technological competitiveness and meet an expanding range of customer requirements. Our management and technical team under IBSD are constantly searching for frontier technology from numerous sources and maintain relationships with several larger
technology firms, such as Microsoft, as a test bed for emerging technologies. Additionally, the business development and project implementation teams from both IBSG and IBSGI UK request and receive comments on desired functionality or system changes
from not only the Company’s customers but the customer’s customer. Our management also intends to hold focus groups by taking a sample population of customers and discussing in an open forum the potential revisions of the various systems.
Competition
Our management believes that we are the
leading provider of digital commerce and management systems for small and medium businesses (enterprises; SMEs) provided over the internet. However our products compete against a variety of “niche” individual software programs designed to
provide a small percentage of similar functions for small and medium sized business users (i.e. web site builders). Additionally, various limited functions can be found through internet portals such as Yahoo. Many internet hosting
providers’ help their customers set up e-commerce sites and provide software for such sites.
The marketplace is full of so-called point products
offering solutions to various elements of Sarbanes-Oxley compliance. Virtually all of these solutions are heavily biased in price and complexity toward the larger corporation. Secure Blue has a major cost advantage over the competition and is a more
comprehensive SOX solution. We have built the solution on a comprehensive and proven security software solution and added sophisticated enhancements such as the PDA access for compliant and sub compliant officers to have access to data on activity
of sensitive information. This provides our customer with the required base criteria of SOX which is a secure network with sophisticated functionality of SOX specific monitoring. The majority of the competition has established distribution
infrastructures built on a range of existing and complementary products. We are confident that we can leverage the success of the other subsidiary, IBSG, and their network. Once our third-party channel network is established we will focus on
attempting take a significant share of the small-mid cap company market.

June 30, 2007, an increase of $1,363,400 or 143%. The primary reason for this increase was due to an increase of consulting services of 1,290,060. The Company had general and administrative expenses of $5,241,293 for the six months ended
June 30, 2008 compared to $2,064,949 for the six months ended June 30, 2007, an increase of $3,176,344, or 154%. This increase is a reflection of increased stock based compensation of $1,777,081, as well as additional costs associated
with European Stock Exchange of $1,200,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2008.
The Company had net income for the three months ended
June 30, 2008 of $1,265,048 compared to $1,882,011 for the three months ended June 30, 2007, a decrease of $616,963 or 33%. The decrease was due primarily from the additional tax provision as well as general and administrative costs
somewhat offset by increased sales. The Company had net income for the six months ended June 30, 2008 of $2,396,258 as compared to $2,946,277 for the six months ending June 30, 2007, a decrease of $550,019 or 19%. The decrease was due
primarily from the additional tax provision as well as increases in general and administrative costs somewhat offset by increased revenue.

Other Expense for the Six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007
The Company had no other income for the three months ended June 30, 2008 and other interest income for the three months ended June 30, 2007 of $32, 941. The
Company had no other income for the six months ended June 30, 2008 and other interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2007 of $65,893.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We believe the proceeds from accounts receivables and the reserves will generate sufficient cash in
assisting with the operating needs of the Company. The Company allocates, informally, approximately $6 million in “reserve” with the balance of cash equal to the average quarterly operational cash expenses. This reserve is anticipated to
be used for contract acquisition, expansion of operations (inclusive of possible acquisitions) and implementing a stock buy back plan, The Company is continuing to inquire into new investments to provide for further research and development capital
and assisting further acquisitions over the next twelve months.
Our current accounts receivable are as follows at June 30, 2008:

Factors That Could Affect Future Results
Because of the following factors, as well as other variables affecting our operating results, past financial performance may not be a reliable indicator of future performance, and historical trends should not be used
to anticipate results or trends in future periods. We have no arrangements or sources of additional capital and may have to curtail our operations if additional capital is needed but is not available.
Our contracts with customers who are state government agencies or quasi government business associations and revenue recognition policies accommodate their protracted
payment process. We may have to curtail our operations if we do not have sufficient funds to pay for the expenses of operating our business. The Company will use additional commercial market opportunities to offset the slow pay nature of the
lucrative government contract market. The Company’s current and projected acquisitions will expand the Company’s retail and private sector markets which should create a blend of payment cycles between the secured government markets and the
commercial markets.
We acquired our enterprise software and began servicing licensees of such software in 2004. Prior financial information reflects
a profitable operation. Our prospects must be considered in light of the risks, expenses and difficulties frequently encountered by companies in relatively new and rapidly evolving markets. These risks may include:
|
|
•
|
|
Uncertain commercial acceptance of our products;
|
|
|
•
|
|
Technological obsolescence; and
|
We cannot assure you that we will
succeed in addressing these risks. If we fail to do so, our revenue and operating results could be materially harmed.
Our software products are subject to
rapid technological change and to compete, we must offer products that achieve market acceptance.
-18-
The software industry is characterized by rapid technological change. To remain competitive, we must continue to
improve our existing products to meet the needs of our customers. We cannot assure you that new products offered by our competitors
-19-
may not prove attractive to our clients and potential clients and adversely affect our future revenues. Our failure to adequately protect our
proprietary rights could adversely affect our ability to compete effectively. We rely on a combination of contracts, copyrights, continued evolution of our core product(s) and other security measures in order to establish and protect our
proprietary rights. We can offer no assurance that the measures we have taken or may take in the future will prevent misappropriation of our technology or that others will not independently develop similar products, design around our proprietary
technology or duplicate our products.
A considerable amount of judgment is required when we assessed the realization of accounts receivables, including
assessing the probability of collection and the current credit-worthiness of each customer. If the financial condition of our customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, an additional provision for
doubtful accounts might be required. A provision for doubtful accounts would initially be recorded based on our historical experience, and then adjusted at the end of each reporting period based on a detailed assessment of our accounts receivable
and allowance for doubtful accounts. In estimating the provision for doubtful accounts, we consider (i) the type of entity (government, commercial, retail) and the aging of the accounts receivable; (ii) trends within and ratios involving
the age of the accounts receivable; (iii) the customer mix in each of the aging categories and the nature of the receivable, such as whether it derives from license, professional services or maintenance revenue; (iv) our historical
provision for doubtful accounts; (v) the credit worthiness of the customer; and (vi) the economic conditions of the customers industry, whether the entity is a national government, as well as general economic conditions, among other
factors. National governments accounts are characterized as fully collectible and for which our contract terms and revenue recognition policies accommodate their protracted payment process. The bulk of our historic client base is primarily composed
of national governments; our periodic valuations do not indicate that an allowance for doubtful accounts was necessary at this time.
Licenses held by
satellite license holders that are non-government entities are mandated to adhere to a wide range of government compliance regulations. As such, should a satellite license holder of a government master license holder fall into a non compliance
state, payments may, without previous knowledge or forewarning, be interrupted. The myriad of possible domestic or international compliance regulations makes it impossible to determine if a satellite license holder is compliant or sufficiently
compliant. As such, if a satellite license holder falls into a non compliance status with their respective governments, it could affect payments due to the Company.
In the first quarter of 2007, the Company expanded its customer base outside of national governmental accounts. Due to this expansion, management reevaluated its policies for establishing an allowance for doubtful
accounts and sales return allowance specific to this customer. This customer base includes state sponsored economic development councils and other quasi-governmental agencies along with corporate based SBDCs and SMEs. The addition of these customer
types generally represents a higher level of business risk than do national government customers. Management has modified its estimates specific to this customer base to use a percentage of sales revenue as the basis for its allowance. Management
believes that this change better addresses the diverse nature of its future customer base. This allowance is not established for any particular customer but is applied to the new customer types. The percentage is applied consistently among all
contracts generated from new customer types. Management has determined that 5% of sales should provide an adequate allowance. As of June 30, 2008 that amount was $286,000.
In summary, estimates for establishing an allowance for doubtful accounts and sales returns applicable to national government account will be based on our existing method referred to above. Estimates for allowance for
doubtful accounts and sales returns applicable to the new customer types will be based on the percentage of sales method.
Should any of these factors
change, the estimates that we make may also change, which could impact our future provision for doubtful accounts. For example, if the financial condition of our customers were to deteriorate, affecting their ability to make payments, an additional
provision for doubtful accounts could be required.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
We do not hold any derivative instruments and do not engage in any hedging activities.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and
Procedures.
Our management, with the participation of our President, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, our President concluded that
our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report were effective such that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is (i) recorded,
processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our President, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding
disclosure. A controls system cannot provide absolute assurance, however, that the objectives of the controls system are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within
a company have been detected.
Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting.
Our management is responsible for establishing
and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act). Our internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability
of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance of
achieving their control objectives. Furthermore, smaller reporting companies face additional limitations. Smaller reporting companies employ fewer individuals and find it difficult to properly segregate duties. Often, one or two individuals control
every aspect of the Company’s operation and are in a position to override any system of internal control. Additionally, smaller reporting companies tend to utilize general accounting software packages that lack a rigorous set of software
controls.
Our management, with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over
financial reporting as of June 30, 2008. In making this assessment, our management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control — Integrated Framework. Based
on this evaluation, our management, with the participation of the President, concluded that, as of June 30, 2008, our internal control over financial reporting was effective.
(b)
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting.
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act, during our
most recently completed fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
