NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
(1) BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The unaudited interim consolidated financial information of RemoteMDx, Inc. and subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company” or “RemoteMDx”) has been prepared in accordance with Article 10 of Regulation S-X promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. In the opinion of management, the accompanying interim consolidated financial information contains all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position as of June 30, 2009, and results of its operations for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the annual consolidated financial statements and notes thereto that are included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2008. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2009 may not be indicative of the results for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2009.
The Company has recurring net losses, negative cash flows from operating activities, and an accumulated deficit. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. In order for the Company to achieve successful operations, the Company must generate positive cash flows from operating activities and obtain the necessary funding to meet its projected capital investment requirements.
Management’s plans with respect to this uncertainty include raising additional capital from the issuance of Series A 15% debentures, sale of common stock, expanding its market for its tracking products, and increasing monitoring service revenues. There can be no assurance that revenues will increase rapidly enough to deliver profitable operating results and pay the Company’s debts as they come due. Likewise, there can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in raising additional capital from the sale of equity or debt securities. If the Company is unable to increase cash flows from operating activities or obtain additional financing, it will be unable to continue the development of its business and may have to cease operations.
(3) PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION
The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of RemoteMDx and its subsidiaries. All significant inter-company transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
(4) RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
In June 2008, the FASB ratified EITF Issue No. 07-5, Determining Whether an Instrument (or an Embedded Feature) Is Indexed to an Entity's Own Stock (EITF 07-5). EITF 07-5 provides that an entity should use a two step approach to evaluate whether an equity-linked financial instrument (or embedded feature) is indexed to its own stock, including evaluating the instrument's contingent exercise and settlement provisions. It also clarifies on the impact of foreign currency denominated strike prices and market-based employee stock option valuation instruments on the evaluation. EITF 07-5 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. The Company has not yet determined the effect on its consolidated financial statements, if any, that will occur upon adoption of EITF 07-5.
In November 2008, the FASB ratified EITF Issue No. 08-7, Accounting for Defensive Intangible Assets. EITF 08-7 clarifies the accounting for certain separately identifiable intangible assets which an acquirer does not intend to actively use but intends to hold to prevent its competitors from obtaining access to them. EITF 08-7 requires an acquirer in a business combination to account for a defensive intangible asset as a separate unit of accounting which should be amortized to expense over the period the asset diminishes in value. EITF 08-7 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, with early adoption prohibited. The adoption of EITF Issue No. 08-7 has not had a material impact on the Company’s financial position.
In December 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position FAS 140-4 and FIN 46(R)-8, Disclosures by Public Entities (Enterprises) about Transfers of Financial Assets and Interests in Variable Interest Entities ("FSP FAS 140-4 and FIN 46(R)-8"). FSP FAS 140-4 and FIN 46(R)-8 amends SFAS 140, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities and FIN 46(R), FASB Interpretation No. 46 (R), Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, an interpretation of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51, to require public entities to provide additional disclosures about transfers of financial assets and their involvement with variable interest entities. FSP FAS 140-4 and FIN 46(R)-8 is effective for the first interim or annual reporting period ending after December 15, 2008. The Company has not yet determined the effect on its consolidated financial statements, if any, will occur upon adoption of FSP FAS 140 and FIN 46(R)-8.
In November 2008, the FASB ratified EITF No. 08-8, “Accounting for an Instrument (or an Embedded Feature) with a Settlement Amount That Is Based on the Stock of an Entity’s Consolidated Subsidiary,” (EITF 08-8). EITF 08-8 clarifies whether a financial instrument for which the payoff to the counterparty is based, in whole or in part, on the stock of an entity’s consolidated subsidiary is indexed to the reporting entity’s own stock and therefore should not be precluded from qualifying for the first part of the scope exception in paragraph 11 (a) of SFAS No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities” or from being within the scope of EITF No. 00-19, “Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to, and, Potentially Settled in, a Company’s Own Stock.” EITF 08-8 is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2008, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company has not yet determined the effect on its consolidated financial statements, if any, that will occur upon adoption of EITF 08-5.
In September 2008, the FASB ratified EITF Issue No. 08-5, Issuer’s Accounting for Liabilities Measured at Fair Value With a Third-Party Credit Enhancement (EITF 08-5). EITF 08-5 provides guidance for measuring liabilities issued with an attached third-party credit enhancement (such as a guarantee). It clarifies that the issuer of a liability with a third-party credit enhancement (such as a guarantee) should not include the effect of the credit enhancement in the fair value measurement of the liability. EITF 08-5 is effective for the 2nd quarter reporting period ending March 31, 2009. The adoption of EITF Issue No. 08-5 has not had a material impact on the Company’s financial position.
In May 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 165, "Subsequent Events," which establishes general accounting standards and disclosure for events that occur after the balance sheet date but before the financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. It requires the disclosure of the date through which an entity has evaluated subsequent events and the basis for that date. SFAS 165 is effective for interim and annual financial periods ending after June 15, 2009 and requires prospective application. The Company adopted SFAS 165 during the third fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2009, and its application had no impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The Company evaluated subsequent events through the date the accompanying financial statements were issued, which was August 6, 2009.
In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 168, “The FASB Accounting Standards Codification™ and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles – a replacement of FASB Statement No. 162.” SFAS 168 replaces SFAS No. 162, “The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles” and establishes the “FASB Accounting Standards Codification™” (Codification) as the source of authoritative accounting principles recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities in the preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Rules and interpretive releases of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) are also sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants. SFAS 168 is effective for interim and annual financial periods ending after September 15, 2009. On this effective date, the Codification will supersede all then-existing Non-SEC accounting and reporting standards. All other non-grandfathered Non-SEC accounting literature not included in the Codification will become non-authoritative. Once the Codification is in effect, all of its content will carry the same level of authority, effectively superseding SFAS 162. The Company will adopt SFAS 168 during its annual period ending September 30, 2009 and does not anticipate that the adoption of this standard will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
(5) IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS
The Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. The Company evaluates, at each balance sheet date, whether events and circumstances have occurred which indicate possible impairment. The Company uses an estimate of future undiscounted net cash flows of the related asset or group of assets over the estimated remaining life in measuring whether the assets are recoverable. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the estimated fair value of the asset. Impairment of long-lived assets is assessed at the lowest levels for which there are identifiable cash flows that are independent of other groups of assets. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value, less the estimated costs to sell. During the nine months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, the Company disposed of $33,519 and $570,948, respectively, in monitoring equipment that no longer had value. This expense was classified as cost of revenues.
(6) REVENUE RECOGNITION
The Company’s revenue has historically been from two sources: (i) monitoring services; (ii) monitoring device and other product sales.
Monitoring Services
Monitoring services include two components: (a) lease contracts in which the Company provides monitoring services and leases devices to distributors or end users and the Company retains ownership of the leased device; and (b) monitoring services purchased by distributors or end users who have previously purchased monitoring devices and opt to use the Company’s monitoring services.
The Company typically leases its devices under one-year contracts with customers that opt to use the Company’s monitoring services. However, these contracts may be cancelled by either party at anytime with 30 days notice. Under the Company’s standard leasing contract, the leased device becomes billable on the date of activation or 21 days from the date the device is assigned to the lessee, and remains billable until the device is returned to the Company. The Company recognizes revenue on leased devices at the end of each month that monitoring services have been provided. In those circumstances in which the Company receives payment in advance, the Company records these payments as deferred revenue.
Monitoring Device Product Sales
Although not the focus of the Company’s business model, the Company sells its monitoring devices in certain situations. In addition, the Company sells home security and Personal Emergency Response Systems (“PERS”) units. The Company recognizes product sales revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement with the customer exists, title passes to the customer and the customer cannot return the devices, prices are fixed or determinable (including sales not being made outside the normal payment terms) and collection is reasonably assured. When purchasing products (such as TrackerPAL devices) from the Company, customers may, but are not required to, enter into monitoring service contracts with the Company. The Company recognizes revenue on monitoring services for customers that have previously purchased devices at the end of each month that monitoring services have been provided.
Multiple Element Arrangements
The majority of the Company’s revenue transactions do not have multiple elements. On occasion, the Company has revenue transactions that have multiple elements (such as product sales and monitoring services). For revenue arrangements that have multiple elements, the Company considers whether: (i) the delivered devices have standalone value to the customer; (ii) there is objective and reliable evidence of the fair value of the undelivered monitoring services, which is generally determined by surveying the price of competitors’ comparable monitoring services; and (iii) the customer does not have a general right of return. Based on these criteria, the Company recognizes revenue from the sale of devices separately from the monitoring services to be provided to the customer. In accordance with EITF 00-21, if the fair value of the undelivered element exists, but the fair value does not exist for one or more delivered elements, then revenue is recognized using the residual method. Under the residual method as applied to these particular transactions, the fair value of the undelivered element (the monitoring services) is deferred and the remaining portion of the arrangement (the sale of the device) is recognized as revenue when the device is delivered and all other revenue recognition criteria are met.
Other Matters
The Company considers an arrangement with payment terms longer than the Company’s normal terms not to be fixed or determinable, and revenue is recognized when the fee becomes due. Normal payment terms for the sale of monitoring services are 30 days, and normal payment terms for device sales are between 120 and 180 days. The Company sells its devices and services directly to end users and to distributors. Distributors do not have general rights of return. Also, distributors have no price protection or stock protection rights with respect to devices sold to them by the Company. Generally, title and risk of loss pass to the buyer upon delivery of the devices.
The Company estimates its product returns based on historical experience and maintains an allowance for estimated returns, which is recorded as a reduction to accounts receivable and revenue.
Shipping and handling fees are included as part of net revenues. The related freight costs and supplies directly associated with shipping products to customers are included as a component of cost of revenues.
(7) NET LOSS PER COMMON SHARE
Basic net loss per common share ("Basic EPS") is computed by dividing net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per common share ("Diluted EPS") is computed by dividing net loss attributable to common stockholders by the sum of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and the weighted average dilutive common share equivalents then outstanding. The computation of Diluted EPS does not assume exercise or conversion of securities that would have an anti-dilutive effect.
Common stock equivalents consist of shares issuable upon the exercise of common stock options and warrants and shares issuable upon conversion of debt. As of June 30, 2009 and 2008, there were 76,128,791 and 19,123,412 outstanding common stock equivalents, respectively, that were not included in the computation of diluted net loss per common share as their effect would be anti-dilutive. The common stock equivalents outstanding as of June 30, 2009, consisted of 50,880,626 shares of common stock from the potential conversion of $10,418,311 of debt and accrued interest, and 25,248,165 shares underlying options and warrants. Of the 25,248,165 shares underlying options and warrants, 21,633,831 shares underlie options and warrants which have vested and 3,614,334 shares underlie options and warrants which have not yet vested.
(8) EQUITY-BASED COMPENSATION
Effective October 1, 2006, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123R, using the modified prospective method. SFAS No. 123R requires the recognition of the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments in the financial statements and is measured based on the grant date fair value of the award. SFAS No. 123R also requires the stock option compensation expense to be recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award (the vesting period). Prior to adopting SFAS No. 123R, the Company accounted for its stock-based compensation plans under Accounting Principles Board Opinion ("APB") No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees ("APB 25"). Under APB 25, generally no compensation expense is recorded when the terms of the award are fixed and the exercise price of the employee stock option equals or exceeds the fair value of the underlying stock on the date of grant. The Company adopted the disclosure-only provisions of SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation.
For options granted subsequent to October 1, 2006, the fair value of each stock option grant will be estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The expected life of stock options represents the period of time that the stock options granted are expected to be outstanding based on historical exercise trends. The expected volatility is based on the historical price volatility of common stock. The risk-free interest rate represents the U.S. Treasury bill rate for the expected life of the related stock options. The dividend yield represents the Company’s anticipated cash dividends over the expected life of the stock options. The Company granted 1,517,714 and 1,725,000 stock options to employees during the nine months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively.
A summary of stock option activity for the nine months ended June 30, 2009, is presented below:
| Shares Under Option | | Weighted Average Exercise Price | | Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Life | | Aggregate Intrinsic Value |
Outstanding as of September 30, 2008 | 3,600,000 | | | $ | 1.08 | | | | | | | | |

Midwest Monitoring & Surveillance
Effective December 1, 2007, the Company purchased a 51% ownership interest, including a voting interest, of Midwest Monitoring & Surveillance (“Midwest”). Like the Company’s operations prior to the acquisition of interest, Midwest provides electronic monitoring for individuals on parole. The total consideration for the purchase of Midwest was $4,400,427 comprised of notes payable of $1,800,000, shares of common stock valued at $1,752,000 (438,000 shares valued at $4.00 per share), transaction costs of $31,497, and long-term liabilities assumed of $816,930.
The total consideration of $4,400,427 less the tangible assets acquired of $674,679 resulted in an excess over net book value of $3,725,748. The excess over net book value was allocated as noted in the table above.
The Company recorded $6,750 of amortization expense for Midwest intangible assets during the nine months ended June 30, 2009 resulting in a total accumulated amortization of $14,250 and net intangible assets of $107,750.
During March 2009, the Company extended the option period for the purchase of the remaining 49% ownership of Midwest to April 15, 2010. The Company agreed to give the following consideration to Midwest owners to extend this option:
| 1) | 150,000 shares of common stock valued at $0.13 per share for a total of $19,500. |
| 2) | $75,000 in cash upon execution of the agreement. |
| 3) | $105,000 in cash paid in ten equal payments of $10,500 beginning April 15, 2009 through January 15, 2010. |
The expense totaling $199,500 was reported as an acquisition option extension cost under other income (expense) for the nine months ended June 30, 2009.
Court Programs
Effective December 1, 2007, the Company purchased a 51% ownership interest, including a voting interest, of Court Programs, Inc., a Mississippi corporation, Court Programs of Northern Florida, Inc., a Florida corporation, and Court Programs of Florida, Inc., a Florida corporation (collectively, “Court Programs”). Similar to the Company’s operations prior to the acquisition of interest, Court Programs is a distributor of electronic monitoring devices to courts providing a solution to monitor individuals on parole. The total consideration for the purchase of Court Programs was $1,527,743 comprised of a note payable of $300,000, shares of common stock valued at $847,500 (212,000 shares valued at approximately $4.00 per share), transaction costs of $45,324, and long-term liabilities assumed of $334,919.
The total consideration of $1,527,743 less the tangible assets acquired of $208,658 resulted in an excess over net book value of $1,319,086. The excess over net book value was allocated as noted in the table above.
The Company recorded $8,100 of amortization expense on intangible assets for Court Programs during the nine months ended June 30, 2009 resulting in a total accumulated amortization of $17,100 and net intangible assets of $93,900.
Effective April, 1, 2009, the Company and Court Programs agreed to release Court Programs from an obligation to repay expenses paid on its behalf by the Company in the amount of $147,566 as consideration to extend the option period for the purchase of the remaining 49% ownership of Court Programs to April 15, 2010. The expense of $147,566 was reported as an acquisition option extension cost under other income (expense) for the three months ended June 30, 2009.
Bishop Rock Software
Effective January 14, 2009, the Company purchased a 100% ownership interest, including a voting interest, of Bishop Rock Software, Inc., a California corporation, (“Bishop Rock”) for 2,857,286 shares of the Company’s common stock valued at $0.23 per share for a total of $657,176, 642,714 options to the Company’s common stock with an exercise price of $0.09 per share for a value of $114,383 using the Black-Scholes calculation, and $79,268 in debt for a total purchase price of $850,827. Bishop Rock has developed crime-scene correlation software to be used with the TrackerPAL monitoring device. As of the date of this Report, the goodwill and intangible assets have not yet been valued; and therefore, the value of $850,827 has all been reflected as goodwill until the valuation is completed. It is anticipated that the valuation of Bishop Rock’s goodwill and intangible assets will be completed by September 30, 2009.

During the nine months ended June 30, 2009, the Company amortized $773,535 of this debt discount and recorded it as interest expense. As of June 30, 2009, the debt discount balance was $2,137,771.
(18) DERIVATIVES
The Company does not hold or issue derivative instruments for trading purposes. However, the Company has convertible notes that contain embedded derivatives that require separate valuation from the convertible notes payable. The Company recognizes these derivatives as liabilities in its balance sheet, measures them at their estimated fair value, and recognizes changes in their estimated fair value in earnings (losses) in the period of change. The Company has estimated the fair value of these embedded derivatives using the Black-Scholes model based on the historical volatility of its common stock over the past 18 months. The fair values of the derivative instruments are re-measured each quarter.
During the nine months ended June 30, 2009, the Company issued Senior Secured Convertible Notes and Series A 15% debentures containing embedded derivative features. The Company recorded an initial value of $2,903,492 for the derivatives.

Critical Accounting Policies
In Notes 1 through 3 to the consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2008 included in the Company’s Form 10-K, the Company discusses those accounting policies that are considered to be significant in determining its results of operations and its financial position.
The preparation of financial statements requires management to make significant estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. By their nature, these judgments are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty. We assess the reasonableness of our estimates, including those related to bad debts, inventories, intangible assets, warranty obligations, product liability, revenue, and income taxes. We base our estimates on historical experience as well as available current information on a regular basis. Management uses this information to form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Additionally, communication cost and monitoring center costs decreased $204,387 and $131,460, respectively. While focusing on cost of revenues, the Company has been able to increase gross profit from $98,160, or 3% of revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2008 to $788,143, or 25% of revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2009. Improving gross profit has been achieved primarily through reduced communication and direct labor cost initiatives and software enhancements.
SecureAlert’s cost of revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2009 was $1,484,591, or 95% of revenues. The largest components of these costs were communication costs of $543,293, monitoring center costs of $352,443, amortization of $383,722, freight of $70,401, and commissions of $66,498.

The decrease in selling, general and administrative expense of $16,956,598 was the result primarily of reductions in consulting expense of $15,870,448 and travel expense of $1,215,266, offset by increases in lease expense of $153,526.
Interest Expense
During the nine months ended June 30, 2009, interest expense related to continuing operations totaled $2,790,006 compared to $1,163,586 during the nine months ended June 30, 2008. The increase of $1,626,420 resulted primarily from the accretion on debt instruments and the issuance of stock and warrants in connection with debt obligations.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company is presently unable to finance its business solely from cash flows from operating activities. During the nine months ended June 30, 2009, the Company financed its business primarily from the issuance of debt and the issuance of stock providing cash proceeds of $8,739,840.
As of June 30, 2009, the Company had unrestricted cash of $1,592,167 and working capital deficit of $15,828,902, compared to unrestricted cash of $2,782,953 and working capital deficit of $6,822,276 as of September 30, 2008. For the nine months ended June 30, 2009, the Company's operating activities used cash of $6,705,204, compared to $4,926,222 of cash used in operating activities for the nine months ended June 30, 2008.
The Company used cash of $1,454,508 for investing activities during the nine months ended June 30, 2009, compared to $679,851 of cash used in investing activities in the nine months ended June 30, 2008.
The Company's financing activities for the nine months ended June 30, 2009, provided cash of $6,968,926 compared to $2,317,772 for the nine months ended June 30, 2008. For the nine months ended June 30, 2009, the Company had net proceeds of $3,902,494 from the issuance of debt instruments, $3,250,000 from the sale of common stock, $1,500,000 from proceeds on related-party notes, and net advances from the line of credit of $87,346. Cash decreased by $453,766 due to payments on notes payable and $1,317,148 in net payments on the related-party line of credit and note. Cash provided by financing activities was used to fund operating activities and upgrade monitoring equipment.
The Company incurred a net loss of $14,037,457 for the nine months ended June 30, 2009 and a loss from operations of $11,171,720. In addition, the Company has an accumulated deficit of $196,721,453 as of June 30, 2009. These factors, as well as the risk factors set out in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2008 raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Report do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty. The Company’s plans with respect to this uncertainty are to increase leases of the TrackerPAL product and to increase monitoring services revenues. There can be no assurance that revenues will increase rapidly enough to deliver profitable operating results and pay the Company’s debts as they come due. Likewise, there can be no assurance that the debt holders will be willing to convert the debt obligations to equity securities or that the Company will be successful in raising additional capital from the sale of equity or debt securities. If the Company is unable to increase cash flows from operating activities or obtain additional financing, it will be unable to continue the development of its business and may have to cease operations.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Our business is extending to several countries outside the United States, and we intend to continue to expand our foreign operations. As a result, our revenues and results of operations are affected by fluctuations in currency exchange rates, interest rates, and other uncertainties inherent in doing business in more than one currency. In addition, our operations are exposed to risks that are associated with changes in social, political, and economic conditions in the foreign countries in which we operate, including changes in the laws and policies that govern foreign investment, as well as, to a lesser extent, changes in United States laws and regulations relating to foreign trade and investment.
Foreign Currency Risks. Revenues from sources outside the United States represented 0% and 10% of our total revenues for the nine months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively. Sales of monitoring equipment during the periods indicated were transacted in U.S. dollars and, therefore, the Company did not experience any effect from foreign currency exchange in connection with these international sales. Changes in currency exchange rates affect the relative prices at which we sell our products. Given the uncertainty of exchange rate fluctuations, we cannot estimate the effect of these fluctuations on our future business, product pricing, results of operations, or financial condition.
We do not use foreign currency exchange contracts or derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes. To the extent foreign sales become a more significant part of our business in the future, we may seek to implement strategies which make use of these or other instruments in order to minimize the effects of foreign currency exchange on our business.
Interest Rate Risks. As of June 30, 2009, we had $20,110 of borrowings outstanding on lines of credit with two banks with a weighted average interest rate of 9.24%. The interest rates on these lines of credit are subject to change from time to time based on changes in an independent index which is the Prime Rate as published in The Wall Street Journal.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, we evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”)). Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective. We and our auditors identified material weaknesses discussed below in the Report of management on internal control over financial reporting.
Report of Management on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Our internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting. Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that:
| (i) | pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets; |
| (ii) | provide reasonable assurance that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors; and |
| (iii) | provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. |
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in Internal Control – Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement to the Company's interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected.
In the course of the management's assessment, it has identified the following material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting:
| · | Control Environment – We did not maintain an effective control environment for internal control over financial reporting. Specifically, we concluded that we did not have appropriate controls in the following areas: |
| o | Segregation of Duties – As a result of limited resources and the addition of multiple majority owned subsidiaries, we did not maintain proper segregation of incompatible duties. The effect of the lack of segregation of duties potentially affects multiple processes and procedures. |
| o | Implementation of Effective Controls – We failed to complete the implementation of effective internal controls over our newly acquired majority owned subsidiaries as of December 31, 2008 due to limited resources. |
| · | Tracking of Leased Equipment – We failed to maintain effective internal controls over the tracking of leased equipment as it relates to the assignment and leasing of monitoring equipment. |
| · | Financial Reporting Process – We did not maintain an effective financial reporting process to prepare financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Specifically, we initially failed to appropriately account for and disclose the effects of issuing derivatives. |
Accordingly, management has determined the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2009 was not effective. These material weaknesses have been disclosed to our audit committee.
We are in the process of improving our internal control over financial reporting in an effort to eliminate these material weaknesses through improved supervision and training of our staff, but additional effort is needed to fully remedy these deficiencies. Our management, audit committee, and directors will continue to work with our auditors and outside advisors to ensure that our controls and procedures are adequate and effective.
