Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Practices
Description of Business
High Technology Solutions, Inc. (the “Company”) was founded in 1990 and provides support services in the areas of information technology, systems and software integration, and engineering and technical services under contracts with various governmental agencies and commercial entities. The Company’s headquarters are located in San Diego, California. The Company maintains offices in several cities located near government or commercial installations where the Company has been awarded contracts. The Company provides services including, but not limited to, systems engineering and technical services, data processing, software integration, Internet and Intranet software development, interactive media development, networking support, and program management support of government programs.
EyeVelocity, Inc. (formerly MACRO Systems, Inc.), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, provides manufacturing services under contracts with various governmental agencies. EyeVelocity previously provided visual imaging software for the automotive industry. During fiscal year 2001, management decided to discontinue the visual imaging software business segment and, accordingly, the operating results have been reclassified as discontinued operations (see Note 10).
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and EyeVelocity. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Revenue Recognition
The Company’s principal source of revenue is from prime contracts and subcontracts funded by U.S. governmental agencies. Approximately 89% of revenues from continuing operations for fiscal year 2003, were from non-fixed price contracts. Revenue on time-and-materials contracts is recognized based on hours incurred, extended at contract labor rates plus materials and other direct costs incurred.

High Technology Solutions, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Practices (continued)
Revenue on cost plus fixed fee contracts is recognized as costs are incurred. Revenue on firm fixed price contracts is recognized using the percentage-of-completion method based on the ratio of costs incurred to date to total estimated costs at completion. Provisions are made to recognize any losses on contracts when losses become evident.
Payments to the Company for performance on certain U.S. government contracts are subject to audit by the Defense Contract Audit Agency. Revenue has been recorded at amounts expected to be realized upon final settlement.
Balances under retainage provisions in contracts approximated $170,402 at August 29, 2003.
Concentration of Credit Risk
The Company’s primary lines of business are significantly impacted by the United States Department of Defense budget. Should the United States reduce budget allocations for certain defense department expenditures, revenues may be adversely impacted.
Approximately 97% of the Company’s accounts receivable as of August 29, 2003, was due from various United States government agencies or customers working under government contract.
Cash Equivalents and Short-Term Investments
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less from the purchase date to be cash equivalents. The Company’s securities are classified as “available-for-sale” in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 115,Accounting for Certain Investment in Debt and Equity Securities. These investments are carried at fair market value with any unrealized gains and losses recorded as a separate component of stockholders’ equity. Fair value is based upon market prices quoted on the last day of the fiscal year. Gross unrealized gains and losses were not material for the year ended August 29, 2003.

High Technology Solutions, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Practices (continued)
Long-Term Investments
Equity investments in businesses that are not publicly traded are stated at the lower of cost or fair market value, and gains are recognized when realized. Fair market value for these investments is based on management’s review of the underlying operating performance and cash flow forecasts for the companies underlying these investments, as well as available comparable private equity transaction information. The Company assesses and records impairment losses when events and circumstances indicate such assets might be impaired.
Intangibles Assets
Intangible assets consist primarily of patent and trademarks associated with the Company’s interactive media business. These assets are being amortized over the estimated useful lives of typically 5 years.
The Company assesses the recoverability of intangible assets by determining whether the amortization of the intangible assets over their remaining lives can be recovered through undiscounted future operating cash flows of the acquired businesses. The impairment of intangible assets, if any, is measured based on projected discounted future operating cash flows using a discount rate reflecting the Company’s average cost of funds. The assessment of the recoverability of intangible assets will be impacted if estimated future operating cash flows are not achieved.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Equipment under capital leases is stated at the present value of the minimum lease payments.
Depreciation is provided on a straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which range from three to seven years. Equipment acquired under capital leases and leasehold improvements are amortized over the useful life of the asset or the lease term, whichever is less.
Assets held under capital leases as of August 29, 2003 were not material.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of
In accordance with SFAS No. 144, the Company recognizes impairment losses on long-lived assets used in operations when indicators of impairment are present and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the assets’ carrying amount.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148,Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation — Transition and Disclosure. SFAS No. 148 amended SFAS No. 123Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, to provide alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation. SFAS No. 148 became effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2002. The Company has currently chosen not to adopt the voluntary change to the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation. If the Company should choose to adopt such a method, its implementation pursuant to SFAS No. 148 could have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations.
In April 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 149,Amendment of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. SFAS No. 149 amends and clarifies accounting for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and for hedging activities under SFAS No. 133. SFAS No. 149 clarifies under what circumstances a contract with an initial net investment meets the characteristic of a derivative as discussed in SFAS No. 133 and when a derivative contains a financing component that warrants special reporting in the statement of cash flows. SFAS No. 149 is effective for contracts entered into or modified after June 30, 2003, for hedging relationships designated after June 30, 2003, and to certain pre-existing contracts. The adoption of SFAS No. 149 has not had a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150,Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity. SFAS No. 150 affects the issuer’s accounting for three types of freestanding financial instruments; (a) mandatorily redeemable shares which the issuing company is obligated to buy back in exchange for cash or other assets, (b) put options and forward purchase contracts that do or may require the issuer to buy back some of its shares in exchange for cash or other assets, and (c) obligations that can be settled with shares, the monetary value of which is fixed, ties solely or predominantly to a variable such as a market index, or varies inversely with the value of the issuer’s shares. SFAS No. 150 also requires disclosures about alternative ways of settling the instruments and the capital structure of entities. SFAS No. 150 is effective for all financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003 and for
10
High Technology Solutions, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Practices (continued)
all periods beginning after June 15, 2003 except for mandatorily redeemable financial instruments of nonpublic entities which are subject to the provisions of SFAS No. 150 for the first fiscal period beginning after December 15, 2003. The Company is currently evaluating the adoption and impact on its consolidated financial statements.
In November 2002, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 45 (“FIN 45”),Guarantor’s Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others. FIN 45 requires a liability to be recorded in the guarantor’s balance sheet upon issuance of a guarantee. In addition, FIN 45 requires disclosures about the guarantees that an entity has issued, including a reconciliation of changes in the entity’s product warranty liabilities. The initial recognition and initial measurement provisions of FIN 45 are applicable on a prospective basis to guarantees issued or modified after December 31, 2002. The disclosure requirements of FIN 45 are effective for financial statements ending after December 15, 2002. The adoption of FIN 45 has not had a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In January 2003, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 46 (“FIN 46”),Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities. FIN 46 requires a variable interest entity to be consolidated by a company if that company is subject to a majority of the risk of loss from the variable interest entity’s activities or entitled to receive a majority of the entity’s residual returns or both. A variable interest entity either (a) does not have equity investors with voting rights or (b) has equity investors that do not provide sufficient financial resources to the entity to support its activities. FIN 46 is effective immediately for all new variable interest entities created or acquired after January 31, 2003. For variable interest entities created or acquired prior to February 1, 2003, the provisions of FIN 46 must be applied for the first interim or annual period beginning after June 15, 2003. The adoption of FIN 46 has not had a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Income Taxes
Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

Stock Options
As permitted by SFAS No. 123,Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, the Company applies the intrinsic value-based method prescribed by APB Opinion No. 25,Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees and related interpretations in accounting for fixed plan stock options. As such, no compensation expense is recognized if the exercise price of stock options equals or exceeds the fair value of the underlying stock at the date of grant.
Deferred compensation for stock options and warrants granted to non-employees has been determined at the grant date in accordance with SFAS No. 123 and EITF No. 96-18,Accounting for Equity Instruments That are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling Goods or Services, and has been recorded at the fair value of the equity instruments issued. Such deferred compensation is generally recognized over the period the related services are rendered. The effect on the Company’s operating results from the issuance of these stock options was $0 for fiscal year 2003.
Pro forma net income has been determined as if the Company had accounted for its employee stock options under the fair-value method prescribed in SFAS No. 123. The fair value of these options was estimated at the date of grant using the minimum value pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions for fiscal year 2003: risk-free interest rate of 5%; zero dividend yield; and a weighted-average expected life of 8 years. The estimated weighted average fair value of stock options granted during fiscal year 2003 was $0.07.
The minimum value pricing model is similar to the Black-Scholes option valuation model, which was developed for use in estimating the fair value of traded options which have no vesting restrictions and are fully transferable, except that it excludes the factor for volatility. In addition, option valuation models require the input of highly subjective assumptions. Because the Company’s employee stock options have characteristics significantly different from those of traded options, and because changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate, in management’s opinion, the existing models do not necessarily provide a reliable single measure of the fair value of the employee stock options.

High Technology Solutions, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Practices (continued)
For purposes of pro forma disclosures, the estimated fair value of the options is amortized to expense over the vesting period of the related options. The Company’s pro forma information follows:

Advertising
The Company expenses advertising as incurred. Advertising expenses for the fiscal year 2003 was $43,256.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts 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 reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Fiscal Year
The Company’s fiscal year is 52 or 53 weeks ending the Friday closest to August 31.
