Brekford Corp. and Subsidiary
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
For the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2010 and 2009

(“Brekford” or the “Company”) (OTCBB; OTCQB:BFDI) is a homeland security technology service provider of fully integrated vehicle installation and rugged technology and video solutions geared towards mission critical operations. For more than a decade we have provided services to branches of the U.S. military, various federal entities and numerous security and public safety agencies throughout the United States.

Our 360º engineered bumper-to-bumper vehicle solution, our commitment to top quality fast reliable service, along with our streamlined purchasing process is why we believe Brekford is the best all-around vehicle and automated traffic enforcement solutions provider.
NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation
The consolidated financial statements of Brekford include accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Pelican Mobile Computers, Inc. Intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated in consolidation.
The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and note disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations.
It is management’s opinion that the accompanying unaudited interim financial statements reflect all adjustments (which are normal and recurring ) that are necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods.
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the Company’s financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2009 contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 15, 2010.
The results disclosed in the Statement of Operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.
Use of Estimates
Preparation of financial statements that follow accounting principles generally accepted in the United States required management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Concentration of Credit Risk
The Company maintains cash accounts with major financial institutions. Cash deposits are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) up to $250,000 at each institution. From time to time, amounts deposited may exceed the FDIC limits.
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable are carried at estimated net realizable value. The Company has a policy of reserving for uncollectable accounts based on its best estimate of the amount of probable credit losses in its existing accounts receivable. The Company calculates the allowance based on a specific analysis of past due balances. Past due status is based on how recently payments have been received by customers. Actual collection experience has not differed significantly from the Company’s estimates, due primarily to credit and collections practices and the financial strength of its customers. No reserve was necessary at September 30, 2010 or December 31, 2009.
Inventory
Inventory principally consists of hardware and third-party packaged software that is modified to conform to customer specifications and held temporarily until the completion of a contract. These amounts are stated at lower of cost or market on a first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) method.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment is stated at cost. Depreciation of furniture, vehicles, computer equipment and software and phone equipment is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives (two to ten years), and leasehold improvements are amortized on a straight-line basis over the shorter of their estimated useful lives or the lease term (which is three to five years).
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue when all four basic criteria are met (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (ii) delivery or installation has been completed, (iii) the customer accepts and verifies receipt, and (iv) collectability is reasonably assured. The Company considers delivery to its customers to have occurred at the time in which products are delivered and/or installation work is completed and the customer acknowledges its acceptance of the work.
The Company provides its customers with a warranty against defects in the installation of its vehicle upfitting solutions for one year from the date of installation. Warranty claims were insignificant for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009. The Company also performs warranty repair services on behalf of the manufacturers of the equipment it sells. The Company does not currently offer separately priced extended warranty and product maintenance contracts, nor does the Company reduce its prices in anticipation of selling extended warranties offered by the manufacturers of the equipment it sells. Revenues from warranty services were insignificant during the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009.
Share-Based Compensation
The Company accounts for stock incentive plans by measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all share-based awards on estimated fair values, net of estimated and actual forfeitures.
Income Taxes
The Company uses the liability method to account for income taxes. Income tax expense includes income taxes currently payable and deferred taxes arising from temporary differences between financial reporting and income tax bases of assets and liabilities. Deferred income taxes are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. Income tax expense, if any, consists of the taxes payable for the current period. Valuation allowances are established when the realization of deferred tax assets are not considered more likely than not.
Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings per share are computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of Common Stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share are computed by adjusting the denominator of the basic earnings per share computation for the effect of potential dilutive common shares outstanding during the period. All shares related to the Company’s outstanding common stock options, unvested restricted stock and warrants, have not been included in the calculation of diluted net income per share for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 as the result would be anti-dilutive.
Newly Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In October 2009, the FASB issued ASU 2009-13, Multiple Deliverable Revenue Arrangements (“ASU 2009-13”), which applies to all deliverables in contractual arrangements in which a vendor will perform multiple revenue-generating activities. In April 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-17, Revenue Recognition—Milestone Method (“ASU 2010-17”), which defines a milestone and determines when it may be appropriate to apply the milestone method of revenue recognition for research or development transactions. These pronouncements are codified in ASC Topic 605, Revenue Recognition, and will be effective for our fiscal year that begins January 1, 2011. These pronouncements may be applied prospectively or retrospect ively, and early adoption is permitted. We are evaluating the impact that adoption of ASU 2009-13 and ASU 2010-17 may have on our consolidated financial statements.
NOTE 3 – LINE OF CREDIT AND LETTER OF CREDIT
The company has a $350,000 letter of credit related to purchase of equipment. This letter of credit is secured by a certificate of deposit for $ 350,000. The certificate of deposit matures on December 21, 2010 and is shown as Restricted Cash on the Financial Report.
NOTE 4 – NOTES PAYABLE – STOCKHOLDERS
The Company financed the repurchase of shares of Common Stock and warrants from the proceeds of convertible promissory notes issued on November 9, 2009 by the Company in favor of a lender group including two directors of the Company, Messrs. C.B. Brechin and Scott Rutherford and a former director, Mr. Bruce Robinson, in the respective principal amounts of $250,000, $250,000 and $200,000 (each, a “Promissory Note, and together, the “Promissory Notes”). Each Promissory Note bears 12% interest per annum and at the time of execution was to be convertible into shares of Common Stock, at the option of each holder, at an original conversion price of $.07 per share. At the time of the execution of the Promissory Notes, the Company agreed to pay the unpaid principal balance of the Promissory Notes and all accrued and u npaid interest on the date that was the earlier of (i) two (2) years from the issue date of the notes, or (ii) ten (10) business days from the date of closing by the Company of any equity financing generating gross proceeds in the aggregate amount of not less than Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000).
On April 1, 2010, the Company and each member of the lender group executed a respective First Amendment to the Unsecured Promissory Note amending the terms of the Promissory Notes. Each Promissory Note was amended as described below to:
● Revise the conversion price in the provision that allows the holder of the respective Promissory Note to elect to convert any outstanding and unpaid principal portion of the Promissory Note, and any accrued and unpaid interest into shares of the Common Stock at a price of fourteen cents ($0.14) per share of Common Stock, and
● Amend the maturity date provided the Company agrees to pay the unpaid principal balance of the respective Promissory Note and all accrued and unpaid interest on the date that is the earlier of (i) four (4) years from the issue date of the note or (ii) ten (10) business days from the date of closing by the Company of any equity financing generating gross proceeds in the aggregate amount of not less than Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000).
NOTE 5 – MAJOR CUSTOMERS AND VENDORS
Major Customers
During the nine months ended September 30, 2010, sales to two customers which are agencies of state or local governments represented 22.9% and 13.1% respectively, of net sales. Accounts receivable due from two customers amounted to 24.5% and 15.4% of total accounts receivable at September 30, 2010.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2009, sales to two customers which are agencies of state or local governments represented 13% and 10% respectively, of net sales. Accounts receivable due from these customers amounted to 41% and 16% of total accounts receivable at September 30, 2009.
Major Vendors
The Company purchased substantially all laptop computers that it resold during the periods presented from a single distributor. Revenues from laptop computers, amounted to 64% and 63% of total revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. As of September 30, 2010 and 2009, accounts payable due to this distributor amounted to 53% and 68% of total accounts payable, respectively.
While the Company believes that alternative sources of these products are available, it has yet to identify sources other than this vendor that have the ability to deliver these products to the Company within the time frames and specifications that it currently demands. The loss of this vendor could result in a temporary disruption of the Company’s operations.
NOTE 6 – SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION
The Company has issued restricted stock, warrants and granted non-qualified stock options to certain employees and non-employees at the discretion of the board of directors. On April 25, 2008, the Company’s shareholders approved the 2008 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). All stock options granted to the employees prior to the approval of the Plan have exercise prices that are less or equal to the fair value of the underlying stock at the date of grant and have terms of ten years. To date, there have been no stock option grants under the Plan. The Company reserves common stock for future issuance for restricted stock awards, stock options, and warrants.
Common Stock Purchase Warrants
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, there was no share-based compensation expense for common stock purchase warrants. As of September 30, 2010, there are no unvested common stock purchase warrants.
A summary of warrant activity is as follows:
| Shares Underlying Warrants | | Weighted Average Exercise Price | | Weighted Average Remaining Contractual term (in years) |
| | | | | | |
Outstanding at January 1, 2010 | | | | | | |
| | | | | | |
| | | | | | |
| | | | | | |
Outstanding & exercisable at September 30, 2010 | | | | | | |
NOTE 7 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Brekford International Corp. v. Woot, Inc.
On or about January 16, 2009, the Company filed suit against Woot, Inc., a Texas corporation (“Woot”) in the United States District Court of the Southern District of Florida, Miami Division, Case No. 09-20143-Civ-Seitz/O’Sullivan. The complaint alleged that on or about July 29, 2008, the Company agreed to purchase from Woot, and Woot agreed to sell to the Company, ten thousand (10,000) Lexmark printers and digital camera bundles (the “Goods”) for the purchase price of $370,000 (the “Contract Price”). The Company paid Woot the Contract Price and instructed Woot to ship the Goods to a third party. The complaint further alleges Woot breached the contract by failing to deliver the Goods to the third part y as directed. The Company demanded Woot return the full Contract Price to the Company, but Woot has failed and refused to do so. As a result of Woot’s alleged breaches, the Company sought damages in the amount of $320,000, plus pre-judgment interest and costs. On March 9, 2009, Woot filed a motion to dismiss for lack of personal jurisdiction and an alternative motion to transfer venue. On April 14, 2009, an order was entered granting the defendant’s request for a change of venue and transferring the case to the United States District Court of the Eastern District of Texas. On May 5, 2009, Woot filed an answer denying liability to the Company, and on May 11, 2009, Woot filed third party complaints against the parties Chiragnee, Inc. and Zenith Distributors, Inc. On January 21, 2010, the Company entered into a compromise settlement agreement and mutual release whereby the Company agre ed to accept $245,000 in full settlement of its claims. The settlement consideration is payable to the Company pursuant to the terms of the settlement agreement on or about the following dates: $45,000 on or about January 30, 2010 by the defendant Woot; $50,000 on or about January 30, 2010 and an additional $50,000 on February 15, 2010 by the defendants Zenith and Chiragnee; an additional $50,000 on May 15, 2010 and a final payment of $50,000 on August 15, 2010 by defendant Zenith. As of December 21, 2009, as a result of the settlement, the value of the long-term asset was written down to $245,000 and reclassified to prepaid current assets on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet. The outstanding balance as of June 30, 2010 was $100,000. A payment of $50,000 was received on July 7, 2010. The final payment of $50,000 was received on September 10, 2010.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2010 were $205,547 compared to $239,416 for the three months ended September 30, 2009, a decrease of $33,869 or 14.15%. The decrease is primarily due to lower professional fees and the continued control of expenditures.
Net Income
Net income for the three months ended September 30, 2010 was $34,987 compared to $207,750 for the three months ended September 30, 2009, a decrease of $210,144 or 85.73% primarily due to a decrease in sales and an increase in start up expenses for the expansion of business.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company had working capital of $2,504,996 at September 30, 2010. The Company’s primary source of liquidity through September 30, 2010 has been the cash flows it has generated from its operations.
The Company reported net income of $70,644 for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and its accumulated deficit reduced to $7,530,807 at September 30, 2010. Cash flows provided in operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 were $261,127.
Management believes that the Company’s current level of working capital combined with funds that it expects to generate in its operations during the next twelve months will be sufficient to sustain the business through at least October 1, 2011. While the Company has taken certain measures to conserve its liquidity as it continues the effort to pursue its business initiatives, there can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in its efforts to expand its operations or that the expansion of its operations will improve its operating results. The Company also cannot provide any assurance that circumstances, such as the current economic crisis, or other unforeseen events, will not have a further material adverse effect on the business to require it to raise additional capital or take other meas ures to sustain operations in the event that outside sources of capital are not available. Although the Company has no specific indication that its business will continue to be affected by the current economic crisis or at a level beyond management’s ability to manage this risk, this matter is an uncertainty that is under continuous review by management. The current economic crisis could also have an effect on the Company’s ability to obtain external funding if needed. If the Company encounters unforeseen circumstances it may need to curtail certain of its operations. Although management believes the Company has access to capital resources, it has not secured any commitments for new financing at this time nor can it provide any assurance that new capital will be available to it on acceptable terms, if at all.
Management expects to incur a substantial increase in initial working capital requirements for the Company’s expansion into the automated traffic enforcement business but expects to cover the requirements of this expansion with funds it anticipates to generate in its operations and is also negotiating for extended payment terms from suppliers of the equipment.
The standby letter of credit facility from American Bank expired on July 27, 2010. The Company has not renewed this facility as it was not needed any longer. The line of credit facility of $ 250,000 from American Bank matured in August, 2010. The Company did not renew this line of credit. The Company has a $350,000 letter of credit related to the purchase of equipment. This letter of credit is secured by a certificate of deposit for $350,000. The certificate of deposit matures on December 21, 2010 and is shown as Restricted Cash on the Financial Report.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to investors.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
In our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009, our most critical accounting policies and estimates upon which our fiscal status depends were identified as those relating to accounts receivable allowances, revenue recognition, warrants and other derivative financial instruments and income taxes. We reviewed our policies and determined that those policies remain our most critical accounting policies for the nine months ended September 30, 2010.
ITEM 4T. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Disclosure Controls and Internal Controls
As required by Rule 13a-15(b) under the Exchange Act, management carried out an evaluation, with the participation of the Company’s Principal Executive Officer and Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures, as of September 30, 2010. Based on the evaluation as of September 30, 2010, the Principal Executive Officer and Financial Officer of the Company has concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) are effective to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in rules and forms of the SEC.
Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed with the objective of ensuring that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act, such as this Form 10-Q, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures are also designed with the objective of ensuring that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Principal Executive Officer and Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Internal controls are procedures which are designed with the objective of providing reasonable assurance that our transactions are properly authorized, recorded and reported and our assets are safeg uarded against unauthorized or improper use, to permit the preparation of our financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
In designing disclosure controls and procedures, our management necessarily is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the costs-benefit relationship of possible disclosure controls and procedures. The design of any disclosure controls and procedures also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events. Accordingly, internal controls, however well conceived, provide reasonable but not absolute assurance in that their design will succeed in achieving their stated goals under all potential future conditions.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended September 30, 2010, that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
