The Company recorded compensation cost arising from share-based payment arrangements in payroll-related expenses on the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations for the Company’s stock option plan of approximately $3,000$5,000 for the threesix months ended February 28,May 31, 2009 and $8,000$14,000 for the threesix months ended February 29,May 31, 2008.

As of February 28,May 31, 2009, there was approximately $27,000$25,000 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested stock option compensation arrangements granted under the incentive plan.  That cost is to be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately 2.752.5 years.

The Company uses historical volatility of common stock over a period equal to the expected life of the options to estimate their fair value.  The dividend yield assumption is based on the Company’s history and expectation of future dividend payouts on the common stock. The risk-free interest rate is based on the implied yield available on U.S. treasury zero-coupon issues with an equivalent remaining term. The expected term of the options represents the estimated period of time until exercise and is based on historical experience of similar awards, giving consideration to the contractual terms, vesting schedules and expectations of future employee behavior. To value option grants and other awards for actual and pro forma stock-based compensation, the Company uses the Black-Scholes option valuation model. When the measurement date is certain, the fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant and is based on the assumptions used for the expected stock price volatility, expected term, risk-free interest rates and future dividend payments.

The Company’s stock option terms expire in 10 years and vary in vesting from immediate to a vesting period of five years.

The following table summarizes the stock options outstanding and exercisable at February 28,May 31, 2009:
                    
Options Outstanding  Options Exercisable 
Outstanding  Wghtd. Avg.  Wghtd. Avg.  Aggregate  Exercisable  Wghtd. Avg.  Aggregate 
at 2/28/2009  Remaining Life  Exercise Price  Intrinsic Value  at 2/28/2009  Exercise Price  Intrinsic Value 
 369,373   7.04  $1.12  $-   189,373  $1.00  $- 

The
Options Outstanding  Options Exercisable

 369,373   6.79  $1.12  $-   189,373  $1.00  $- 

There is no computation for the aggregate intrinsic value in the table above is before income taxes, based onbecause the outstanding options weighted average exercise price was greater than the Company’s closing stock price of $.41 as of the last business day of the period ended February 28,May 31, 2009.  No options were exercised during the quarter ended February 28,May 31, 2009.

 


6. Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

In accordance with SFAS No. 142, goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets are tested for impairment upon adoption of the standard and annually thereafter.  SFAS No. 142 requires that goodwill be tested for impairment using a two-step process.  The first step is to identify a potential impairment and the second step measures the amount of the impairment loss, if any.   Goodwill is deemed to be impaired if the carrying amount of a reporting unit's net assets exceeds its estimated fair value.  SFAS No. 142 requires that indefinite-lived intangible assets be tested for impairment using a one-step process, which consists of a comparison of the fair value to the carrying value of the intangible asset.  Intangible assets are deemed to be impaired if the net book value exceeds the estimated fair value.value

Following the guidelines contained in SFAS No. 142, the corporation tests goodwill and intangible assets that are not subject to amortization for impairment annually or more frequently if events or circumstances indicate that impairment is possible.  Goodwill and intangible assets were tested at the end of the first fiscal quarter, February 28, 2009 and it was found that the carrying value of the goodwill and intangible assets were impaired.

TheAn impairment test was performed at February 28, 2009 based on a discounted cash flow model using management’s business plans projected for expected future cash flows.  Due to current difficult economic conditions, the Company may continue to experience a significant decline in profitability as well as lower sales of new franchises.  Based on the computation of the discounted cash flows, it has beenwas determined that the fair value of goodwill and intangible assets exceed their carrying value by $2,399,000.

A charge of $2,399,000 has beenwas recorded against goodwill and other intangibles at February 28, 2009.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure controlsControls and Procedures

Based on an evaluation of the effectiveness of disclosure controls and procedures, our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”) have concluded that as of the six months ended May 31, 2009 our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act report is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the rules and forms of the SEC and is accumulated and communicated to management, including the CEO and CFO, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure.

It should be noted that any system of controls, however well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance regarding management’s control objectives.  In addition, the design of any control system is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events.  Because of these and other inherent limitations of control systems, there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions, regardless of how remote.

Management’s Quarterly Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

Our evaluation of internal control over financial reporting includes using the COSO framework, an integrated framework for the evaluation of internal controls issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission, to identify the risks and control objectives related to the evaluation of our control environment.



Based on our evaluation under the framework described above, our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective over financial reporting as of February 28,May 31, 2009.

Additionally, there were no significant changes in our internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect these controls subsequent to the evaluation date. We have not identified any significant deficiencies or material weaknesses in our internal controls, and therefore there were no corrective actions taken.

This quarterly report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting.  Management’s report was not subject to attestation requirements by the Company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permits the Company to provide only management’s report in this quarterly report.
