NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated 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 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and note disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. Quarterly results are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year. For further information, refer to the annual financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2008.
2. General
Description of Business
Emtec, Inc., a Delaware corporation, (the “Company”) is an information technology (“IT”) company, providing consulting, services and products to commercial, federal, education, state and local government clients. The Company’s areas of specific practices include IT consulting, communications, data management, enterprise computing, managed services, business service management and staff augmentation solutions, training, storage and data center planning and development. The Company’s client base is comprised of departments of the United States and Canada’s federal, state and local governments, schools and commercial businesses throughout the United States and Canada. The most significant portion of the Company’s revenue is derived from activities as a reseller of IT products, such as workstations, servers, microcomputers, application software, networking and communications equipment.
On March 20, 2008, the Company acquired, through its subsidiary Emtec Global Services LLC (“Emtec Global Services”), all of the outstanding stock of Luceo, Inc. (“Luceo”) headquartered in Naperville, IL. Luceo offers a broad range of consulting/contracting services to clients throughout the United States including IT project management services, packaged software implementation, web technologies/client server application development and support.
On August 13, 2008, the Company acquired, through its subsidiary Emtec Global Services, all of the outstanding stock of eBusiness Application Solutions, Inc. (“eBAS”) and Aveeva, Inc. (“Aveeva”) headquartered in Fremont, CA and their Indian subsidiary Aviance Software India Private Limited (“Aviance”) headquartered in Bangalore, India. eBAS and Aveeva offers a broad range of software consulting services, including business analysis, quality assurance, testing and training as well as SAP, CRM, Oracle Apps, and Java based solutions throughout the United States.
On February 12, 2009, the Company acquired through its subsidiary, Emtec Infrastructure Services Corporation (“EIS-US”), all of the outstanding stock of KOAN-IT Corp. headquartered in Ottawa, Canada (“KOAN-IT”) and KOAN-IT (US) Corp. (“KOAN-IT (US)”). KOAN-IT is a consulting firm specializing in business service management methodologies for its clients in Canada and the United States. As of March 1, 2009 KOAN-IT Corp. and 7119747 Canada Inc., a subsidiary of EIS-US, were amalgamated to form Emtec Infrastructure Services Canada Corporation (“EIS-Canada”), which does business as KOAN-IT.
4
On May 12, 2009, the Company acquired through its subsidiary, KOAN-IT (US), certain assets of Enterprise Management Solutions, Inc. (“EMS”), a company under Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in the Middle District of Florida. Prior to the acquisition, EMS was a consulting firm, headquartered in Clearwater, Florida, specializing in business service management methodologies for its clients throughout the United States.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Emtec, Inc., a New Jersey Corporation (“Emtec NJ”), Emtec Viasub LLC (“Emtec LLC”), Emtec LLC’s wholly owned subsidiary Emtec Federal, Inc. (“Emtec Federal”), Emtec Global Services, Emtec Global Services’ wholly owned subsidiaries Luceo, eBAS, Aveeva and Aveeva’s subsidiary Aviance, EIS-US and EIS-US’s wholly owned subsidiaries KOAN-IT and KOAN-IT (US). Significant intercompany account balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Segment Reporting
With the acquisitions of Luceo, eBAS, Aveeva, KOAN-IT and certain asset of EMS, the Company divides its operating activity into two operating segments for reporting purposes: Emtec Infrastructure Services Division (“EIS”) and Emtec Global Services Division (“EGS”). EIS is the Company’s historical business (“Systems Division”) which includes Emtec NJ, Emtec LLC, Emtec Federal and the business service management solutions offered by KOAN-IT and KOAN-IT(US). EGS is the Company’s enterprise applications services solutions and training business including Luceo, eBAS and Aveeva. Further, the Company determined that it has four reporting units under SFAS 142: Systems Division, KOAN-IT, Luceo and eBAS/Aveeva.
Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications have been made to prior year balances in order to conform to current presentations.
Accounting Estimates
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 disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period, including, but not limited to, receivable valuations, impairment of goodwill and other long-lived assets and income taxes. Management’s estimates are based on historical experience, facts and circumstances available at the time and various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. The Company reviews these matters and reflects changes in estimates as appropriate. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.
Goodwill
Goodwill represents costs in excess of fair values assigned to the underlying net assets of acquired companies. In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standard ("SFAS") No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets,” goodwill is not amortized but tested for impairment annually, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired. The Company has set an annual impairment testing date of June 1. An impairment charge will be recognized only when the implied fair value of a reporting unit, including goodwill, is less than its carrying amount.
5
The changes in the carrying amount of goodwill for the nine months ended May 31, 2009 are as follows:
Balance at August 31, 2008 | $ | 10,697,516 | ||
Increase in goodwill arising from acquistion of KOAN-IT | 548,435 | |||
Increase in goodwill arising from acquistion of assets of EMS | 226,452 | |||
Foreign currency translation effect of Canadian goodwill | 65,245 | |||
Reduction in goodwill arising from settlement of tax | ||||
uncertainties associated with April 16, 2004 merger | (161,663 | ) | ||
Balance at May 31, 2009 | $ | 11,375,985 |
Based on the income (discounted cash flows) and market-based (guideline company method) approaches, there was no goodwill impairment for the Systems Division, KOAN-IT, Luceo and eBAS/Aveeva at June 1, 2009. At May 31, 2009, Emtec's market capitalization was less than its total stockholders' equity, which is one factor the Company considered when determining whether goodwill should be tested for impairment between annual tests. The Company does not currently believe that the reduced market capitalization represents a goodwill impairment indicator as of May 31, 2009, however, if current market conditions persist and the Company’s estimated value under the income and market-based approaches is effected, then it is possible that the Company may have to take a goodwill impairment charge against earnings in a future period.
Identifiable Intangible Assets
At May 31, 2009 and August 31, 2008, the components of identifiable intangible assets are as follows:
May 31, 2009 | August 31, 2008 | |||||||
Customer relationships | $ | 14,097,881 | $ | 12,861,712 | ||||
Noncompete agreements | 398,095 | 370,000 | ||||||
Trademarks | 168,569 | - | ||||||
14,664,545 | 13,231,712 | |||||||
Accumulated amortization | (3,023,824 | ) | (1,916,290 | ) | ||||
$ | 11,640,721 | $ | 11,315,422 |
Customer relationships represent the value ascribed to customer relationships purchased in 2005, the acquisitions of Luceo and eBAS/Aveeva in fiscal 2008 and the acquisition of KOAN-IT in February 2009. The amounts ascribed to customer relationships are being amortized on a straight-line basis over 5-15 years.
Noncompete agreements represent the value ascribed to covenants not to compete in employment and acquisition agreements with certain members of Luceo, eBAS/Aveeva and KOAN-IT’s management entered into at the time of the respective acquisitions. The amounts ascribed to noncompete agreements are being amortized on a straight-line basis over five years.
6
Trademarks represent the value ascribed to trade name and trademarks owned by KOAN-IT. The amounts ascribed to trademarks are being amortized on a straight-line basis over five years.
Amortization expense was $1,107,534 and $468,609 for the nine months ended May 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. We currently expect future amortization for the next five years ending August 31, 2009 through 2013 will be approximately $1,590,000 per year.
Long-lived assets, including customer relationships and property and equipment, are tested for recoverability whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amount may not be recoverable in accordance with SFAS No. 144 “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.” Recoverability of long-lived assets is assessed by a comparison of the carrying amount to the estimated undiscounted future net cash flows expected to result from the use of the assets and their eventual disposition. If estimated undiscounted future net cash flows are less than the carrying amount, the asset is considered impaired and a loss would be recognized based on the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value of the asset. No impairment of long-lived assets occurred during the nine months ended May 31, 2009.
Foreign Currency Translation and Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)
The financial statements of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries are remeasured into U.S. dollars for consolidation and reporting purposes. The functional currency for the Company’s foreign operations is the local currency. Current rates of exchange are used to remeasure assets and liabilities. Adjustments to translate those statements into U.S. dollars are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).
The Company’s comprehensive income is presented in the following table:
Three months ended | Nine months ended | |||||||||||||||
May 31, 2009 | May 31, 2008 | May 31, 2009 | May 31, 2008 | |||||||||||||
Net Income (loss) | $ | 272,298 | $ | (151,783 | ) | $ | 893,221 | $ | 703,040 | |||||||
Cumulative translation adjustment | 211,389 | - | 173,930 | - | ||||||||||||
Total comprehensive income (loss) | $ | 483,687 | $ | (151,783 | ) | $ | 1,067,151 | $ | 703,040 |
Earnings (loss) Per Share
Basic earnings (loss) per share amounts are computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common stockholders (the numerator) by the weighted average shares outstanding (the denominator), during the period. Shares issued during the period are weighted for the portion of the period that they were outstanding.
The computation of diluted earnings per share is similar to the computation of basic earnings (loss) per share, except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if dilutive options, restricted stock awards and warrants had been exercised as of the end of the period. Potentially dilutive shares consist of stock options, restricted stock awards and warrants totaling 259,041 and 177,640, and 254,503 and 117,200 for the three and nine months ended May 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. Diluted shares for the three months ended May 31, 2008 were not included in the calculation of diluted net loss per share because the effect of the inclusion would be anti-dilutive. In addition, outstanding warrants to purchase 1,688,354 and 1,649,955 common shares as of and for the periods ended May 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively, were also not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because the exercise price was greater than the average market price of the Company’s common shares over those periods.

Income Taxes and Due to Former Stockholders
On September 1, 2007, the Company adopted FASB Interpretation No. 48 (“FIN 48”). FIN 48 prescribes a recognition threshold that a tax position is required to meet before being recognized in the financial statements and provides guidance on de-recognition, measurement, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition issues. Subsequent to the initial adoption of FIN 48, our policy is to recognize interest and penalty expense associated with uncertain tax positions as a component of income tax expense in the consolidated statements of operations.
In October 2008, the Company settled the August 2003 and April 2004 tax audits of Emtec-Federal formerly known as Westwood Computer Corporation (“Westwood”), with the Appeals Office of the IRS. The settlement agreement resulted in an additional federal income tax payment of $145,070, which included interest of $40,908. The Company has filed 2003 and 2004 amended New Jersey income tax returns to pay additional New Jersey tax liability that results from the IRS settlement. The accounting to record the settlements of these pre-merger tax liabilities under FIN 48 resulted in adjustments to goodwill and to deferred tax assets. Since the Westwood merger agreement included indemnification coverage by Westwood’s former stockholders, the Company recorded a receivable, “due from the Westwood former stockholders,” of $631,415. The $631,415 included pre-merger tax liabilities totaling $361,533 plus associated professional fees to defend the Company’s tax positions totaling $269,882. The $361,533 portion of the Company’s indemnity claim was recorded as a reduction to goodwill acquired in the April 2004 Westwood merger. The remaining $269,882 portion was recorded as a reduction to selling, general & administrative expenses for the three months ended November 30, 2008.
The “Due from Westwood former stockholders” receivable was satisfied during October 2008, based on offsetting amounts “due to Westwood former stockholders” totaling $631,415. The amounts “due to Westwood former stockholders” represented funds we held as unclaimed merger consideration.

4. Stock-Based Compensation and Warrants
Stock Options
An amendment to the Company’s 2006 Stock-Based Incentive Compensation Plan (the “2006 Plan”) was approved by the stockholders on February 2, 2009. The 2006 Plan authorizes the granting of stock options to directors and eligible employees. The amendment increased the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock available under the 2006 Plan from 1,400,000 shares to 2,543,207 shares eligible for issuance at prices not less than 100% of the fair value of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant (110% in the case of stockholders owning more than 10% of the Company’s common stock). Options under the 2006 Plan have terms from 7 to 10 years and certain options vest immediately and others through a term up to 4 years.
The Company measures the fair value of options on the grant date using the Black-Scholes option valuation model. The Company estimated the expected volatility using the Company’s historical stock price data over the expected term of the stock options. The Company also used historical exercise patterns and forfeiture behaviors to estimate the options, expected term and our forfeiture rate. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury zero-coupon yield curve in effect on the grant date. Both expected volatility and the risk-free interest rate are based on a period that approximates the expected term.
A summary of stock options for the nine months ended May 31, 2009 is as follows:
For the Nine Months Ended May 31, 2009 | Shares | Weighted Average Exercise Price | Weighted Average Remaining Term | Aggregate Intrinsic Value * | |||||||||

There were 5,000 and 20,000 stock options issued during the three months ended May 31, 2009 and November 30, 2008, respectively. The following assumptions were used to value stock options issued during each of the three months ended May 31, 2009 and November 30, 2008:

Nonvested Stock (Restricted Stock)
The following table summarizes the Company’s restricted stock activity during the nine months ended May 31, 2009:
For the Nine Months Ended May 31, 2009 | Shares | Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value | Fair Value | |||||||||
Nonvested - September 1, 2008 | 330,542 | $ | 1.24 | |||||||||

Nonvested -May 31, 2009 | 515,859 | $ | 0.74 | $ | 355,943 | (b) |
(a) | The fair value of vested restricted stock shares represents the total pre-tax fair value, based on the closing stock price on the day of vesting, which would have been received by holders of restricted stock shares had all such holders sold their underlying shares on that date. |
(b) | The aggregate fair value of the nonvested restricted stock shares expected to vest represents the total pre-tax fair value, based on the Company’s closing stock price as of May 31, 2009 which would have been received by holders of restricted stock shares had all such holders sold their underlying shares on that date. |
The fair value of these shares was determined based upon the quoted closing price of the Company’s stock on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board on the grant date. The Company recognizes compensation expense associated with the issuance of such shares using the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant over the vesting period on a straight-line basis.
Stock Options and Nonvested Stock
Stock-based compensation costs related to the 2006 Plan totaled $2,764 and $66,980 during the three months ended May 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. Stock-based compensation costs related to the 2006 Plan totaled $86,536 and $213,055 during the nine months ended May 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. As of May 31, 2009, the Company had $223,930 of unrecognized compensation cost related to these instruments. The cost is expected to be recognized over a remaining period of 3 years.
Warrants
On August 5, 2005, the Company issued certain stockholders stock warrants that evidence the obligation of the Company to issue a variable number of shares, in the aggregate, equal to 10% of then total issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock, measured on a post-exercise basis, at any date during the 5-year term of the warrants, which ends August 5, 2010. The aggregate exercise price of these warrants is fixed at $3,695,752. The exercise price per warrant will vary based upon the number of shares issuable under the warrants. The number of shares issuable under the warrants totaled 1,688,354 and 1,649,955 shares, with an exercise price of $2.19 and $2.24 per share, as of May 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. The outstanding warrants were anti-dilutive for the three and nine months ended May 31, 2009 and 2008 because the exercise price was greater than the average market price of the Company’s common shares.

5. Line of Credit
The Company, Emtec NJ, Emtec LLC, Emtec Federal, Emtec Global, Luceo, eBAS, and Aveeva (collectively, the “Borrower”), have a Loan and Security Agreement with De Lage Landen Financial Services, Inc. (the “Lender”) pursuant to which the Lender provides the Borrower with a revolving credit loan and floor plan loan (the “Credit Facility”). The Credit Facility provides for aggregate borrowings of the lesser of $32.0 million or 85% of Borrower’s eligible accounts receivable, plus 100% of unsold inventory financed by the Lender. The floor plan loan portion of the Credit Facility is for the purchase of inventory from approved vendors and for other business purposes. The Credit Facility subjects the Borrower to mandatory repayments upon the occurrence of certain events as set forth in the Credit Facility.
On December 5, 2008, the Borrower entered into a First Amendment and Joinder to Loan and Security Agreement and Schedule to Loan and Security Agreement (the “First Amendment”) with the Lender, pursuant to which the Lender extended the term of the loans issued to the Borrower under the Loan and Security Agreement from December 7, 2008 until December 7, 2010 and made certain other amendments to the Loan and Security Agreement, including the following:
§ | The First Amendment changed the base rate of interest to the three month (90 day) LIBOR rate from the previous base rate of the “Prime Rate.” |
§ | The First Amendment changed the interest rate for revolving credit loans to the base rate plus 3.25% from the previous interest rate for revolving credit loans of the base rate minus 0.5%, and changed the interest rate for floorplan loans, if applicable, to 6.25% in excess of the base rate from the previous interest rate for floorplan loans of 2.5% in excess of the base rate. |
§ | The First Amendment amended the Schedule to provide that the Borrowers must pay the Lender a floorplan annual volume commitment fee if the aggregate amount of all floorplan loans does not equal or exceed $60,000,000 in a 12 month period from December 1st through November 30th. The floorplan commitment fee is equal to the amount that the floorplan usage during such 12 month period is less than $60,000,000 multiplied by 1%. If the Borrower terminates the Credit Facility during a 12 month period, the Borrower shall be required to pay the Lender a pro rated portion of the annual volume commitment fee. |
In addition by executing the First Amendment, Emtec Global, Luceo, eBAS and Aveeva each joined the Credit Facility as a Borrower and granted DLL a security interest in all of their respective interests in certain of their respective assets, including inventory, equipment, fixtures, accounts, chattel paper, instruments, deposit accounts, documents, general intangibles, letter of credits rights, and all judgments, claims and insurance policies. Emtec Global pledged 100% of the outstanding shares of its domestic subsidiaries, eBAS and Luceo, and Emtec Global and Aveeva pledged 65% in the aggregate of the outstanding shares of Aviance Software (India) Pvt. Ltd., an Indian company.
The Company had balances of $10.78 million and $8.58 million outstanding under the revolving portion of the Credit Facility, and balances of $3.47 million and $2.05 million (included in the Company’s accounts payable) outstanding plus $366,700 and $444,700 in open approvals under the floor plan portion of the Credit Facility at May 31, 2009 and August 31, 2008, respectively. Net availability was $7.27 million and $14.44 million under the revolving portion of the Credit Facility, and additionally $10.11 million and $6.49 million was available under the floor plan portion of the Credit Facility as of May 31, 2009 and August 31, 2008, respectively.
As of May 31, 2009, the Company determined that it was in compliance with its financial covenants with the Lender.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with, and is qualified in its entirety by, the unaudited financial statements, including the notes thereto, appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
You should carefully review the information contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in other reports or documents that we file from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). In addition to historical information, this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains our beliefs regarding future events and our future financial performance. In some cases, you can identify those so-called “forward-looking statements” by words such as “may,” “will,” “should,” expects,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “potential,” or “continue” or the negative of those words and other comparable words. You should be aware that those statements are only our predictions. Actual events or results may differ materially. We undertake no obligation to publicly release any revisions to forward-looking statements after the date of this report. In evaluating those statements, you should specifically consider various factors, including the risk factors discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended August 31, 2008 and other reports or documents that we file from time to time with the SEC. All forward-looking statements attributable to us or a person acting on our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by this cautionary statement.
Assumptions relating to budgeting, marketing, and other management decisions are subjective in many respects and thus susceptible to interpretations and periodic revisions based on actual experience and business developments, the impact of which may cause us to alter our marketing, capital expenditure or other budgets, which may in turn affect our business, financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
Overview of Emtec
We are an IT company providing consulting, services and products to commercial, educational institution, U.S. federal, state and local government clients. Our services and products address the technology needs of our clients including communications, data management, enterprise computing, managed services, storage and data center planning and development. Our solutions are crafted to enable our clients to become more efficient and effective, thereby making them more profitable and giving them a competitive advantage. To date, the most significant portion of our revenues has been derived from our activities as a reseller of IT products, such as workstations, servers, microcomputers, application software and networking and communications equipment. However, we are actively endeavoring to increase the portion of our revenues that are derived from IT services.
We have historically not been adversely affected by inflation; technological advances and competition within the IT industry have generally caused the prices of the products we sell to decline, and product life-cycles tend to be short. These factors require that our growth in unit sales exceed any declines in prices in order for us to increase our net sales.
Factors that may affect gross profits in the future include changes in product margins, volume incentive rebates and other incentives offered by various manufacturers, changes in technical employee utilization rates, the mix of products and services sold, the mix of client type and the decision to aggressively price certain products and services.
19
Factors that may in the future have a negative impact on our selling, general and administrative expenses for both divisions include costs associated with marketing and selling activities, potential merger and acquisition related costs, technological improvement costs, compliance costs associated with SEC rules and increases in our insurance costs.
For the nine months ended May 31, 2009 and May 31, 2008, our EIS division’s revenues decreased to $133.14 million from $155.29 million. If we are unable to increase our revenues in future periods, whether due to the effects of the economic downturn on our commercial business or otherwise, then we may be forced to consolidate our operations to further reduce operating expenses sufficiently to achieve profitable operations. We have implemented several cost containment measures beginning in December 2008 that have and will reduce our selling, general and administrative expenses in future quarters, but there can be no assurance that we will be able to generate sufficient new business or that our cost containment measures currently in place will provide us the ability to maintain profitability in the future.
Our financial results can be impacted by the level of business activity of our clients, in particular our commercial clients. The current economic downturn may continue to cause reductions in technology and discretionary spending by our clients. Furthermore, business activity from our government and education clients may also decrease as their spending will be impacted by declining tax revenues associated with this economic downturn.
On March 20, 2008, we acquired through our subsidiary Emtec Global Services all of the outstanding stock of Luceo, headquartered in Naperville, Illinois. Luceo offers a broad range of consulting/contracting services to clients throughout the United States, which specializes in providing IT project management services, packaged software implementation, web technologies/client server application development and support.
On August 13, 2008, we acquired through our subsidiary Emtec Global Services all of the outstanding stock of eBAS and Aveeva headquartered in Fremont, California and Aveeva’s Indian subsidiary Aviance, headquartered in Bangalore, India. eBAS and Aveeva offer a broad range of software consulting services including business analysis, quality assurance, testing, and training as well as SAP, CRM, Oracle Apps, and Java based solutions.
On February 12, 2009, the Company acquired through its subsidiary, EIS-US, all of the outstanding stock of KOAN-IT, headquartered in Ottawa, Canada and KOAN-IT (US). KOAN-IT is a consulting firm specializing in business service management methodologies for its clients throughout Canada and the United States. As of March 1, 2009 KOAN-IT Corp. and Emtec Canada were amalgamated to form EIS-Canada, which does business as KOAN-IT.
On May 12, 2009, we acquired through our subsidiary, KOAN-IT (US), certain assets of EMS, a company under Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in the Middle District of Florida. Prior to the Chapter 11 acquisition, EMS was a consulting firm, headquartered in Clearwater, Florida, specializing in business service management methodologies for its clients throughout the United States.
20
With the acquisitions of Luceo, eBAS, Aveeva, KOAN-IT and the assets of EMS, the Company divides its operating activity into two operating segments for reporting purposes: EIS and EGS. EIS is the Company’s historical business which includes Emtec NJ, Emtec LLC, Emtec Federal and business service management solutions offered by KOAN-IT and KOAN-IT(US) and EGS is the Company’s enterprise applications services solutions and training business including Luceo, eBAS and Aveeva.

EIS division’s total revenues increased $3.95 million, or 10.8%, to $40.53 million for the three months ended May 31, 2009, compared to $36.58 million for the three months ended May 31, 2008. EIS division’s total revenue includes revenues from our Systems Division and KOAN-IT which was acquired on February 12, 2009 and the assets of EMS which were acquired on May 12, 2009. KOAN-IT’s total revenues (including revenues derived from assets acquired from EMS) for the three months ended May 31, 2009 was $1.82 million. Without these acquisitions Systems Division’s revenue increased $2.13 million, or 5.8%, to $38.71 million for the three months ended May 31, 2009, compared to $36.58 million for the three months ended May 31, 2008. Procurement services revenue increased $454,261 or 1.3%, to $34.61 million for the three months ended May 31, 2009, compared to $34.15 million for the three months ended May 31, 2008. This increase in procurement services revenue is mainly attributable to various computer roll-out projects for school districts in Florida and Georgia during the three months ended May 31, 2009 of approximately $12.0 million, which was off-set by an overall decrease in our client’s IT spending, particularly in various departments of the U.S. government, agency and commercial business and various governmental agencies in the State of New Jersey. We believe that this decrease in revenues can be attributed to the current economic downturn. Services and consulting revenue for the Systems Division increased $1.67 million, or 69.0%, to $4.10 million for the three months ended May 31, 2009, compared to $2.43 million for the three months ended May 31, 2008. This increase is mainly attributable to various installation and configuration related services associated with computer roll-out projects for school districts in Florida, Georgia and various governmental agencies in the State of New Jersey during the three months ended May 31, 2009.
22
During the three months ended May 31, 2009 and 2008, U.S. governmental department and agency related revenues represented approximately 28.9% and 35.9% of total EIS division’s revenues, respectively. These clients include the Department of Defense, Department of Justice, Department of Homeland Security, Department of Health and Human Services, Department of Agriculture and Department of Commerce.
We expect that federal government business revenues will continue to represent a large portion of our total revenues as we continue to strive to penetrate wider and deeper into various civilian and military agencies. The federal government business typically experiences increased activity during the months of August through November.
The state and local government business remains uncertain due to the tight budgetary pressures within governmental agencies in the State of New Jersey.
Revenues from commercial clients decreased by approximately $6.41 million during the three months ended May 31, 2009 compared with the three months ended May 31, 2008. This decrease is mainly due to the current economic downturn that caused reductions in technology and discretionary spending by our commercial clients.
During the three months ended May 31, 2009, revenues from our education business increased by approximately $12.09 million compared with the three months ended May 31, 2008. This increase is attributable to increase in various computer roll-out projects for school districts in Florida and Georgia during the three months ended May 31, 2009.
EGS
EGS division’s total revenues increased $6.34 million, or 270.1%, to $8.69 million for the three months ended May 31, 2009, compared to $2.35 million for the three months ended May 31, 2008. This increase is primarily attributable to acquisitions of eBAS and Aveeva on August 13, 2008. Without these acquisitions of eBAS and Aveeva, Luceo’s revenue for the three months ended May 31, 2009 was $2.48 million compared to $2.35 million for the period from March 20, 2008 through May 31, 2008.
Gross Profit

EIS
Aggregate gross profit for our EIS division increased $994,586, or 19.1%, to $6.20 million for the three months ended May 31, 2009 as compared to $5.20 million for the three months ended May 31, 2008. EIS division’s gross profit includes gross profit from Systems Division and recently acquired KOAN-IT which was acquired on February 12, 2009 and the assets of EMS which were acquired on May 12, 2009. KOAN-IT’s gross profit (including gross profit derived from the assets acquired from EMS) for the three months ended May 31, 2009 was $335,742. Without these acquisitions Systems Division’s gross profit increased $658,844, or 12.7%, to $5.86 million for the three months ended May 31, 2009, compared to $5.20 million for the three months ended May 31, 2008. This increase is attributable to various installation and configuration related services associated with computer roll-out projects for school districts in Florida, Georgia and various governmental agencies in the State of New Jersey during the three months ended May 31, 2009.
Measured as a percentage of revenues, our gross profit margin for EIS division increased to 15.3% of our EIS division’s revenues for the three months ended May 31, 2009, from 14.2% for the three months ended May 31, 2008. This increase is primarily a result of increase in our service and consulting gross profit margin attributable to higher utilization of our engineering resources and increase in our services and consulting revenue associated with computer roll-out projects for school districts in Florida, Georgia and various governmental agencies in the State of New Jersey during the three months ended May 31, 2009.
EGS
EGS division’s gross profit increased $956,180, or 194.9%, to $1.45 million for the three months ended May 31, 2009, compared to $490,601 for the three months ended May 31, 2008. This increase is primarily attributable to acquisitions of eBAS and Aveeva on August 13, 2008. Without these acquisitions of eBAS and Aveeva, Luceo’s gross profit for the three months ended May 31, 2009 was $374,613 compared to $490,601 for the period from March 20, 2008 through May 31, 2008. This decrease in gross profit is mainly due to lower utilization of our engineering resources and lower effective billing rates. We believe that this decrease in gross profit can be attributed to the current economic downturn.
Measured as percentages of revenues, our gross profit margin for EGS division decreased to 16.7% of our EGS division’s revenues for the three months ended May 31, 2009 from 20.9% for the three months ended May 31, 2008. We believe this decrease is mainly due to lower utilization of our engineering resources and lower effective billing rates.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
EIS
Selling, general and administrative expenses for our EIS division increased by $75,808, or 1.5% to $5.11 million for the three months ended May 31, 2009, compared to $5.04 million for the three months ended May 31, 2008. EIS division’s selling, general and administrative expenses includes selling, general and administrative expenses from Systems Division and KOAN-IT which was acquired on February 12, 2009 and the assets of EMS which were acquired on May 12, 2009. KOAN-IT’s selling, general and administrative expenses (inclusding selling, general and administrative expenses related to the assets acquired from EMS) for the three months ended May 31, 2009 was $400,983. Without these acquisitions Systems Division’s selling, general and administrative expenses decreased by $325,175, or 6.5% to $4.71 million for the three months ended May 31, 2009, compared to $5.04 million for the three months ended May 31, 2008. This decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended May 31, 2009 is primarily attributable to the reduction of various expense categories including compensation, travel, lodging, telephone, office expenses, credit card bank fees, recruiting, professional fees and merger and acquisition related costs. In January 2009, we implemented wage reductions to all employees whose earnings are expected to be greater than $75,000 annually, froze salary increases and implemented many other cost containment measures.
24
EGS
EGS division’s selling, general and administrative expenses increased $773,073, or 248.2%, to $1.08 million for the three months ended May 31, 2009, compared to $311,529 for the three months ended May 31, 2008. This increase is primarily attributable to acquisitions of eBAS and Aveeva on August 13, 2008. Without these acquisitions of eBAS and Aveeva, Luceo’s selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended May 31, 2009 were $290,521 compared to $311,529 for the period from March 20, 2008 through May 31, 2008. This decrease is primarily attributable to the reduction of immigration related application fees and legal fees associated with net new hires due to the slow-down in the economy. Additionally, we recorded approximately $112,000 in retention bonuses paid to business development personnel during the three months ended May 31, 2009.
Rent Expense-Related Party
EIS
We occupy approximately 42,000 square feet of office and warehouse space in Springfield, New Jersey. This space is leased from a limited liability company owned by certain directors and officers of the Company and their related family members. The original lease term was through April 2009 with monthly base rent of $15,000. We renewed the lease for an additional five years term through April 2014, with monthly base rent of $17,500. During the three months ended May 31, 2009 and 2008, we recorded $47,250 and $45,000 in expense under this lease, respectively.
We occupy approximately 26,000 square feet of office and warehouse space in a 70,000 square foot building in Suwannee, GA. This space is leased from a limited liability company in which certain officers of our company are passive investors with an approximately 20% equity interest. The lease term is for 5 years with monthly base rent of $15,832. During the three months ended May 31, 2009 and 2008, we recorded expense under this lease totaling $47,496 and $46,439, respectively.
EGS
We occupy approximately 20,000 square feet of office space in Fremont, CA. This space is leased from the spouse of the President of eBAS/Aveeva. The lease term is for 3 years with monthly base rent of $20,000. In March 2009, we subleased portion of the building for a monthly rent of $2,500 on month-to-month basis to reduce costs. During the three months ended May 31, 2009, we recorded $52,500 in expense under this lease.
Management believes the leases noted above are being leased at a rate consistent with the market rate.
25
Depreciation and Amortization
EIS
Depreciation and amortization expense for our EIS division increased by 35.5%, or $107,426, to $410,167 for the three months ended May 31, 2009, compared to $302,740 for the three months ended May 31, 2008. EIS division’s depreciation and amortization expense includes depreciation and amortization expense from Systems Division and KOAN-IT which was acquired on February 12, 2009 and the assets of EMS which were acquired on May 12, 2009. KOAN-IT’s depreciation and amortization expense (including depreciation and amortization expense relating to the assets acquired from EMS) for the three months ended May 31, 2009 was $61,285. Without these acquisitions, Systems Division’s depreciation and amortization expense increased by $46,141, or 15.2% to $348,881 for the three months ended May 31, 2009, compared to $302,740 for the three months ended May 31, 2008. This increase in depreciation expense is mainly due to depreciation expense associated with our purchase of phone system, computer equipment, a document management system and other modifications made to our accounting systems made during the three months ended May 31, 2009.
As of May 31, 2009, intangible assets of the EIS division consisted of the estimated value ascribed to customer relationships of $9,897,881 less accumulated amortization of $2,306,218; the estimated value ascribed to non-compete of $28,095 less accumulated amortization of $1,682; and the estimated value ascribed to trademarks of $168,569 less accumulated amortization of $10,091. As of August 31, 2008 intangible assets of the EIS consisted of the estimated value ascribed to customer relationships of $8,661,712 less accumulated amortization of $1,809,288. The assets ascribed to customer relationships are being amortized on a straight-line basis over 6 to 15 years and noncompete covenants and trademarks are being amortized on a straight-line basis over 5 years. Amortization expense for the EIS division was $208,044, and $145,088 for the three months ended May 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively.
EGS
EGS division’s depreciation and amortization expense increased $188,811, or 566.2%, to $222,157 for the three months ended May 31, 2009, compared to $33,346 for the three months ended May 31, 2008. This increase is primarily attributable to acquisitions of eBAS and Aveeva on August 13, 2008. Without these acquisitions of eBAS and Aveeva, Luceo’s depreciation and amortization expenses for the three months ended May 31, 2009 was $54,541 compared to $33,346 for the period from March 20, 2008 through May 31, 2008. This increase in depreciation expense is mainly due to depreciation expense associated with our purchase of computer equipment made during the current fiscal year.
As of May 31, 2009, intangible assets of the EGS division consisted of the estimated value ascribed to customer relationships of $4,200,000 less accumulated amortization of $638,523 and the estimated value ascribed to non-compete of $370,000 less accumulated amortization of $67,311. As of August 31, 2008 intangible assets of the EGS division consisted of the estimated value ascribed to customer relationships of $4,200,000 less accumulated amortization of $95,192 and the estimated value ascribed to non-compete of $370,000 less accumulated amortization of $11,811. The assets ascribed to customer relationships are being amortized on a straight-line basis over 5 to 9 years and noncompete covenants and trademarks are being amortized on a straight-line basis over 5 years. Amortization expense for the EGS division was $199,609 for the three months ended May 31, 2009 and $33,346 for the period from March 20, 2008 through May 31, 2008. Amortization expense for the EGS division was $598,831 for the nine months ended May 31, 2009 and $33,346 for the period from March 20, 2008 through May 31, 2008. This increase in amortization expense is mainly due to amortization expense related to intangible assets acquired in connection with the acquisitions of eBAS and Aveeva.

Operating income (loss)
EIS
Operating income for our EIS division for the three months ended May 31, 2009 increased by $808,045, to $581,357, compared to an operating loss of ($226,689) for the three months ended May 31, 2008. EIS division’s operating income (loss) includes operating income (loss) from Systems Division and KOAN-IT which was acquired on February 12, 2009 and the assets of EMS which were acquired on May 12, 2009. KOAN-IT’s operating income (loss) (including operating income(loss) attributable to the assets acquired from EMS) for the three months ended May 31, 2009 was ($126,526). Without these acquisitions Systems Division’s operating income (loss) increased $934,571 to $707,882 for the three months ended May 31, 2009, compared to ($226,689) for the three months ended May 31, 2008. This increase in operating income is mainly attributable to increased revenues and gross profit as discussed in the Total Revenue and Gross Profit sections above.
EGS
Operating income for our EGS division for the three months ended May 31, 2009 decreased by 39.9%, or $58,203, to $87,523, compared to operating income of $145,727 for the three months ended May 31, 2008. Without the acquisitions of eBAS and Aveeva, Luceo’s operating income for the three months ended May 31, 2009 was $29,551 compared to $145,727 for the period from March 20, 2008 through May 31, 2008. The reduction in operating income was due to approximately $132,500 in retention bonuses we paid to business development and technical personnel during the three months ended May 31, 2009.
Interest expense
EIS
Interest expense for the EIS division decreased by 48.5%, or $81,051, to $85,924 for the three months ended May 31, 2009, compared to $166,975 for the three months ended May 31, 2008. The decrease is primarily attributable to lower balances on various notes payable compared with prior period.
EGS
Our EGS division’s interest expense for the three months ended May 31, 2009 was $83,437. This interest expense is related to acquisition debt from the line of credit and the 8% subordinated note payable to Mr. Natarajan as part of the consideration for the acquisition of Luceo.
Provision (benefit) for income taxes
EIS
We recorded an income tax expense of $199,640 for the three months ended May 31, 2009 as compared to an income tax benefit of $160,611 for the three months ended May 31, 2008. The effective tax benefit rate was 41.4% for the three months ended May 31, 2009 versus 42.0% for the three months ended May 31, 2008.
27
EGS
We recorded an income tax expense of $15,649 for the three months ended May 31, 2009 as compared to an income tax expense of $62,556 for the three months ended May 31, 2008. The effective tax rate was 270.4% for the three months ended May 31, 2009 versus 47.2% for the three months ended May 31, 2008. The increase in effective tax is due to permanent differences between our financial statements and income tax returns.

EIS division’s total revenues decreased $22.15 million, or 14.3%, to $133.14 million for the nine months ended May 31, 2009, compared to $155.29 million for the nine months ended May 31, 2008. EIS division’s total revenue includes revenues from Systems Division and KOAN-IT which was acquired on February 12, 2009 and the assets of EMS which were acquired on May 12, 2009. KOAN-IT’s total revenues (including revenues derived from the assets acquired from EMS) for the nine months ended May 31, 2009 was $1.98 million. Without these acquisitions Systems Division’s revenue decreased $24.14 million, or 15.5%, to $131.15 million for the nine months ended May 31, 2009, compared to $155.29 million for the nine months ended May 31, 2008. Procurement services revenue decreased $25.46 million, or 17.5%, to $120.38 million for the nine months ended May 31, 2009, compared to $145.85 million for the nine months ended May 31, 2008. This decrease is mainly due to an overall decrease in our client’s IT spending, particularly in various departments of the U.S. government and agencies and commercial business and various governmental agencies in the State of New Jersey, which was off-set by increase in our education business attributable to various computer roll-out projects for school districts in Florida and Georgia. We believe that this decrease in revenues can be attributed to the current economic downturn and the deferral of some larger computer roll-out projects to future quarters. Services and consulting revenue for the Systems Division increased $1.33 million, or 14.0%, to $10.77 million for the nine months ended May 31, 2009, compared to $9.44 million for the nine months ended May 31, 2008. This increase is mainly attributable to various installation and configuration related services associated with computer roll-out projects for school districts in Florida, Georgia and various governmental agencies in the State of New Jersey during the nine months ended May 31, 2009.
30
During the nine months ended May 31, 2009 and 2008, U.S. governmental department and agency related revenues represented approximately 47.4% and 56.7% of total EIS division’s revenues, respectively. These clients include the Department of Defense, Department of Justice, Department of Homeland Security, Department of Health and Human Services, Department of Agriculture and Department of Commerce. Revenues from various civilian and military U.S. governmental departments and agencies decreased by approximately $24.83 million during the nine months ended May 31, 2009 compared with the nine months ended May 31, 2008. This is mainly due to a large computer hardware sale to the Department of the Air Force of approximately $15.36 million and Federal Bureau of Prisons of approximately $10.98 million in the nine months ended May 31, 2008. The same clients only accounted for approximately $2.76 million and $3.97 million in revenue for the three months ended May 31, 2009, respectively.
Revenues from commercial clients decreased by approximately $15.52 million during the nine months ended May 31, 2009 compared with the nine months ended May 31, 2008. This decrease is mainly due to the current economic downturn that caused reductions in technology and discretionary spending by our commercial clients.
During the nine months ended May 31, 2009, revenues from our education business increased by approximately $19.54 million compared with the nine months ended May 31, 2008. This increase is attributable to increase in various computer roll-out projects for school districts in Florida and Georgia during the nine months ended May 31, 2009.
EGS
EGS division’s total revenues increased $25.72 million, or 1095.9%, to $28.06 million for the nine months ended May 31, 2009, compared to $2.35 million for the nine months ended May 31, 2008. This increase is primarily attributable to acquisitions of eBAS and Aveeva on August 13, 2008. Without these acquisitions of eBAS and Aveeva, Luceo’s revenue for the nine months ended May 31, 2009 was $7.36 million compared to $2.35 million for the period from March 20, 2008 through May 31, 2008. The increase is primarily due to comparing a full nine months of operations to a shorter stub period in 2008.

EIS
Aggregate gross profit for our EIS division decreased $1.42 million, or 7.6%, to $17.40 million for the nine months ended May 31, 2009 as compared to $18.82 million for the nine months ended May 31, 2008. EIS division’s gross profit includes gross profit from Systems Division and KOAN-IT which was acquired on February 12, 2009 and the assets of EMS which were acquired on May 12, 2009. KOAN-IT’s gross profit (including profit derived from the assets acquired from EMS) for the nine months ended May 31, 2009 was $362,666. This decrease is mainly due to a decrease in procurement services revenue as discussed in the total revenue section.
31
Measured as a percentage of revenues, our gross profit margin for EIS division increased to 13.1% of our EIS division’s revenues for the nine months ended May 31, 2009 from 12.1% for the nine months ended May 31, 2008. This increase is primarily a result of an increase in our service and consulting gross profit margin attributable to higher utilization of our engineering resources and increase in our services and consulting revenue associated with computer roll-out projects for school districts in Florida, Georgia and various governmental agencies in the State of New Jersey during the nine months ended May 31, 2009.
EGS
EGS division’s gross profit increased $4.68 million, or 953.4%, to $5.17 million for the nine months ended May 31, 2009, compared to $490,601 for the nine months ended May 31, 2008. This increase is primarily attributable to the acquisitions of eBAS and Aveeva on August 13, 2008. Without these acquisitions of eBAS and Aveeva, Luceo’s gross profit for the nine months ended May 31, 2009 was $1.09 million compared to $490,601 for the period from March 20, 2008 through May 31, 2008. The increase is primarily due to comparing a full nine months of operations to a shorter stub period in 2008.
Measured as percentages of revenues, our gross profit margin for EGS division decreased to 18.4% of our EGS division’s revenues for the nine months ended May 31, 2009 from 20.9% for the nine months ended May 31, 2008. We believe this decrease is mainly due to lower utilization of our engineering resources.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
EIS
Selling, general and administrative expenses for our EIS division decreased by $828,869, or 5.3% to $14.88 million for the nine months ended May 31, 2009, compared to $15.71 million for the nine months ended May 31, 2008. EIS division’s selling, general and administrative expenses includes selling, general and administrative expenses from Systems Division and KOAN-IT which was acquired on February 12, 2009 and the assets of EMS which were acquired on May 12, 2009. KOAN-IT’s selling, general and administrative expenses (including selling, general and administrative expenses related to the assets acquired from EMS) for the nine months ended May 31, 2009 was $453,884. Without these acquisitions Systems Division’s selling, general and administrative expenses decreased by $1.28 million, or 8.2% to $14.43 million for the nine months ended May 31, 2009, compared to $15.71 million for the nine months ended May 31, 2008. A portion of the $1.28 million decrease represented the recovery of $269,882 in professional fees. The Company previously expensed these professional fees associated with defending the Company’s tax positions during the IRS’ 2003 and 2004 tax audits and appeals process. During the quarter ended November 30, 2008, the Company recognized the recovery of these previously paid professional fees based on an indemnification right associated with the April 2004 Westwood merger.
32
Without the reduction of $269,882 in selling, general and administrative expenses associated with the indemnification claim, Systems Division’s selling, general and administrative expenses would have decreased by $1.01 million, or 6.4% for the nine months ended May 31, 2009. This decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses for the nine months ended May 31, 2009 is mainly due to a decrease in sales commission of approximately $495,000 and bonus expense by approximately $298,000, which is directly related to the decrease in our gross profit as discussed in the gross profit section. The remaining approximately $219,000 decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses for the nine months ended May 31, 2009 is primarily attributable to decrease in various expense categories such as travel, lodging, telephone, office expenses, credit card bank fees, recruiting, professional fees and merger and acquisition related costs. In January 2009, we implemented wage reductions to all employees whose earnings are expected to be greater than $75,000 annually, froze salary increases and implemented many other cost containment measures. During the nine months ended May 31, 2009, we eliminated approximately 24 positions from various selling and administrative departments in the Systems Division and incurred approximately $208,000 in severance costs that are included in selling, general and administrative expenses for the nine months ended May 31, 2009.
EGS
EGS division’s selling, general and administrative expenses increased $2.94 million, or 942.9%, to $3.25 million for the nine months ended May 31, 2009, compared to $311,529 for the nine months ended May 31, 2008. This increase is primarily attributable to the acquisitions of eBAS and Aveeva on August 13, 2008. Without these acquisitions of eBAS and Aveeva, Luceo’s selling, general and administrative expenses for the nine months ended May 31, 2009 was $808,512 compared to $311,529 for the period from March 20, 2008 through May 31, 2008. The increase is primarily due to comparing a full nine months of operations to a shorter stub period in 2008.
Rent Expense-Related Party
EIS
We occupy approximately 42,000 square feet of office and warehouse space in Springfield, New Jersey. This space is leased from a limited liability company owned by certain directors and officers of the Company and their related family members. The original lease term was through April 2009 with monthly base rent of $15,000. We renewed the lease for an additional five years term through April 2014, with monthly base rent of $17,500. During the nine months ended May 31, 2009 and 2008, we recorded $137,250 and $135,000 in expense under this lease, respectively.
We occupy approximately 26,000 square feet of office and warehouse space in a 70,000 square foot building in Suwannee, GA. This space is leased from a limited liability company in which certain officers of our company are passive investors with an approximately 20% equity interest. The lease term is for 5 years with monthly base rent of $15,832. During the nine months ended May 31, 2009 and 2008, we recorded expense under this lease totaling $142,488 and $135,089, respectively.
33
EGS
We occupy approximately 20,000 square feet of office space in Fremont, CA. This space is leased from the spouse of the President of eBAS/Aveeva. The lease term is for 3 years with monthly base rent of $20,000. In March 2009, we subleased portion of the building for a monthly rent of $2,500 on month-to-month basis to reduce costs. During the nine months ended May 31, 2009, we recorded $172,500 in expense under this lease.
Management believes the leases noted above are being leased at a rate consistent with the market rate.
Depreciation and Amortization
EIS
Depreciation and amortization expense for our EIS division increased by 19.1%, or $173,873, to $1.08 million for the nine months ended May 31, 2009, compared to $910,752 for the nine months ended May 31, 2008. EIS division’s depreciation and amortization expense includes depreciation and amortization expense from Systems Division and KOAN-IT which was acquired on February 12, 2009 and the assets of EMS which were acquired on May 12, 2009. KOAN-IT’s depreciation and amortization expense (including depreciation and amortization expense related to the assets acquired from EMS) for the nine months ended May 31, 2009 was $73,009. Without these acquisitions, Systems Division’s depreciation and amortization expense increased by $100,864, or 11.1% to $1.01 million for the nine months ended May 31, 2009, compared to $910,752 for the nine months ended May 31, 2008. This increase in depreciation expense is mainly due to depreciation expense associated with our purchase of phone system, computer equipment, a document management system and other modifications made to our accounting systems made during the period ended May 31, 2009.
As of May 31, 2009, intangible assets of the EIS division consisted of the estimated value ascribed to customer relationships of $9,897,881 less accumulated amortization of $2,306,218; the estimated value ascribed to non-compete of $28,095 less accumulated amortization of $1,682; and the estimated value ascribed to trademarks of $168,569 less accumulated amortization of $10,091. As of August 31, 2008 intangible assets of the EIS consisted of the estimated value ascribed to customer relationships of $8,661,712 less accumulated amortization of $1,809,288. The assets ascribed to customer relationships are being amortized on a straight-line basis over 6 to 15 years and noncompete covenants and trademarks are being amortized on a straight-line basis over 5 years. Amortization expense for the EIS division was $508,704, and $435,263 for the nine months ended May 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively.
EGS
EGS division’s depreciation and amortization expense increased $615,997, or 1847.3%, to $649,343 for the nine months ended May 31, 2009, compared to $33,346 for the nine months ended May 31, 2008. This increase is primarily attributable to the acquisitions of eBAS and Aveeva on August 13, 2008. Without these acquisitions of eBAS and Aveeva, Luceo’s depreciation and amortization expenses for the nine months ended May 31, 2009 was $141,906 compared to $33,346 for the period from March 20, 2008 through May 31, 2008. This increase in depreciation expense is mainly due to depreciation expense associated with our purchase of computer equipment made during the current fiscal year and increased amortization expense is due to nine month period in the current reporting period compared to the period from March 20, 2008 through May 31, 2008.

As of May 31, 2009, intangible assets of the EGS division consisted of the estimated value ascribed to customer relationships of $4,200,000 less accumulated amortization of $638,523 and the estimated value ascribed to non-compete of $370,000 less accumulated amortization of $67,311. As of August 31, 2008 intangible assets of the EGS division consisted of the estimated value ascribed to customer relationships of $4,200,000 less accumulated amortization of $95,192 and the estimated value ascribed to non-compete of $370,000 less accumulated amortization of $11,811. The assets ascribed to customer relationships are being amortized on a straight-line basis over 5 to 9 years and noncompete covenants and trademarks are being amortized on a straight-line basis over 5 years. Amortization expense for the EGS division was $199,609 for the nine months ended May 31, 2009, and $33,346 for the period from March 20, 2008 through May 31, 2008. Amortization expense for the EGS division was $598,831 for the nine months ended May 31, 2009, and $33,346 for the period from March 20, 2008 through May 31, 2008.
Operating income
EIS
Operating income for our EIS division for the nine months ended May 31, 2009 decreased by 40.3%, or $777,260, to $1.15 million, compared to operating income of $1.93 million for the nine months ended May 31, 2008. EIS division’s operating income (loss) includes operating income (loss) from Systems Division and KOAN-IT which was acquired on February 12, 2009 and the assets of EMS which were acquired on May 12, 2009. KOAN-IT’s operating income (loss) (including operating income (loss) attributable to the assets acquired from EMS) for the nine months ended May 31, 2009 was ($164,227). Without these acquisitions Systems Division’s operating income decreased $613,033, or 31.8%, to $1.31 million for the nine months ended May 31, 2009, compared to $1.93 million for the nine months ended May 31, 2008. This decrease in operating income is mainly due to decreased revenues and gross profit as discussed in the Total Revenue and Gross Profit sections above.
EGS
Operating income for our EGS division for the nine months ended May 31, 2009 increased by 653.1%, or $951,721, to $1.10 million, compared to operating income of $145,727 for the nine months ended May 31, 2008. Without the acquisitions of eBAS and Aveeva, Luceo’s operating income for the nine months ended May 31, 2009 was $141,521 compared to $145,727 for the period from March 20, 2008 through May 31, 2008. The decrease in operating income was attributable to approximately $132,500 in retention bonuses paid to business development and technical personnel during the nine months ended May 31, 2009.
Interest expense
EIS
Interest expense for the EIS division decreased by 52.9%, or $433,673, to $386,046 for the nine months ended May 31, 2009, compared to $819,718 for the nine months ended May 31, 2008. This is primarily attributable to lower balance on various notes payable and a lower average interest rate charged on the line of credit attributable to a decrease in the prime rate during this period.
35
EGS
Our EGS division’s interest expense for the nine months ended May 31, 2009 was $307,308. This interest expense is related to acquisitions debt from the line of credit and 8% subordinated note payable to Mr. Natarajan as part of the consideration for the acquisition of Luceo.
Provision for income taxes
EIS
We recorded an income tax expense of $306,827 for the nine months ended May 31, 2009 as compared to $551,670 for the nine months ended May 31, 2008. The effective tax rate was 40.4% for the nine months ended May 31, 2009 versus 46.6% for the nine months ended May 31, 2008. The higher tax rate in 2008 was primarily the result of FIN 48 interest expense recorded as income taxes, a tax benefit shortfall from stock compensation grants in 2008, increased income tax expense and the effect of permanent differences between our financial statements and income tax returns.
EGS
We recorded an income tax expense of $348,107 for the nine months ended May 31, 2009 as compared to $62,556 for the nine months ended May 31, 2008. The effective tax rate was 44.1% for the nine months ended May 31, 2009 versus 47.2% for the nine months ended May 31, 2008. The decrease in effective tax rate is due to permanent differences between our financial statements and income tax returns.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
Fair Value Measurements
In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standard Board (“FASB’) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (“SFAS No. 157”). This Statement defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 does not require any new fair value measurements, but provides enhanced guidance to other pronouncements that require or permit assets or liabilities to be measured at fair value. This Statement is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and interim periods within those years. The standard is effective for the Company as of the beginning of its first fiscal year beginning after November 15, 2007, or September 1, 2008. The FASB, on February 12, 2008, issued FASB Staff Position (“FSP”) FAS No. 157-2. This FSP permits a delay in the effective date of SFAS No. 157 to fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008, for non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities, except for items that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis (at least annually). The delay is intended to allow the FASB and constituents additional time to consider the effect of various implementation issues that have arisen, or that may arise, from the application of SFAS No. 157. On February 14, 2008, the FASB issued FSP FAS 157-1 to exclude SFAS No. 13, “Accounting for Leases,” and its related interpretive accounting pronouncements from the scope of SFAS No. 157. The adoption of SFAS No. 157 did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.
36
Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Liabilities
In February 2007, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities—Including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115 (“SFAS No. 159”). SFAS No. 159 provides all entities with an option to report selected financial assets and liabilities at fair value. The objective of SFAS No. 159 is to improve financial reporting by providing entities with the opportunity to mitigate volatility in earnings caused by measuring related assets and liabilities differently without having to apply the complex provisions of hedge accounting. SFAS No. 159 also establishes presentation and disclosure requirements designed to facilitate comparisons between companies that choose different measurement attributes for similar types of assets and liabilities. SFAS No. 159 does not eliminate disclosure requirements included in other accounting standards. The standard is effective for the Company as of the beginning of its first fiscal year beginning after November 15, 2007, or September 1, 2008. The adoption of SFAS No. 159 did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.
Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements
In December 2007, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements — an Amendment of ARB 51, (“SFAS 160”).” This statement amends ARB 51 to establish accounting and reporting standards for the noncontrolling interest (minority interest) in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. Upon its adoption, effective as of the beginning of the Company’s fiscal 2010, noncontrolling interests will be classified as equity in the Company’s financial statements and income and comprehensive income attributed to the noncontrolling interest will be included in the Company’s income and comprehensive income. The provisions of this standard must be applied retrospectively upon adoption. The Company does not currently expect that the adoption of this pronouncement will have any effect on its financial statements since all of its existing subsidiaries are wholly owned.
Business Combinations
In December 2007, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 141 (revised 2007), “Business Combinations” (“SFAS 141(R)”). SFAS 141(R) establishes principles and requirements for how an acquirer in a business combination recognizes and measures the assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and any noncontrolling interest in the acquire. The provisions of SFAS 141(R) are effective for our business combinations occurring on or after September 1, 2009. During nine months ended May 31, 2009, the Company capitalized total of approximately $328,000 in professional fees associated with the acquisition of KOAN-IT and the acquisition of assets of EMS. Under the provisions of SFAS 141(R) effective September 1, 2009, professional fees associated with acquisitions will be expensed.
Determination of the Useful Life of Intangible Assets
In April 2008, the FASB issued Staff Position No. 142-3, Determination of the Useful Life of Intangible Assets (“FSP No. 142-3”). FSP No. 142-3 amends the factors to be considered in assumptions used to determine the useful lives of recognized intangible assets recognized under SFAS No. 142. The new guidance applies to intangible assets with contractual lives that are acquired individually or with a group of assets as well as those assets acquired in a business combination. The new guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008 and subsequent interim periods. We will adopt the statement on September 1, 2009 which is the beginning of our 2010 fiscal year. We do not expect adoption of FSP No. 142-3 to have a significant impact on our consolidated financial position or results of operations.
37
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash at May 31, 2009 was $2.99 million, which represented an increase of $961,678 from $2.02 million at August 31, 2008. We are a net borrower; consequently, we believe our cash balance must be viewed along with the available balance on our line of credit. Borrowings under our line of credit at May 31, 2009 increased to $10.78 million from $8.58 million at August 31, 2008. As of May 31, 2009, our net working capital (defined as the excess of our current assets over our current liabilities) was approximately $746,557 less than it was at August 31 2008. The decrease in working capital and increase in line of credit is mainly due to the acquisition of KOAN-IT on February 12, 2009 and acquisition of certain assets of EMS on May 12, 2009. The purchase price for the acquisition of KOAN-IT, consisting of cash at closing including capitalized professional fees less the amount of cash acquired amounted to $896,960, which was funded through borrowings under the Credit Facility and the issuance of a subordinated promissory notes in an aggregate principal amount of $407,683 which is payable on the 12 month anniversary of the closing. The purchase price for the acquisition of certain assets of EMS consisted of $150,000 cash at closing. Additionally, the Company capitalized professional fees of $82,412 that were associated with the acquisition. The acquisition was funded through borrowings under the Credit Facility with the Lender. Additionally, we paid approximately $2.25 million in principal payments on various notes payable to related-parties on April 16, 2009 (footnote 9). We funded these payments from borrowing under the Credit Facility.
In December 2006, the Company, Emtec NJ, Emtec LLC, and Emtec Federal (collectively, the “Borrower”), entered into a Loan and Security Agreement with De Lage Landen Financial Services, Inc. (the “Lender”) pursuant to which the Lender provides the Borrower a with a revolving credit loan and floor plan loan (the “Credit Facility”). The Credit Facility provides for aggregate borrowings of the lesser of $32.0 million or 85% of Borrower’s eligible accounts receivable, plus 100% of unsold inventory financed by the Lender, minus a $5.0 million reserve. The floor plan loan portion of the Credit Facility is for the purchase of inventory from approved vendors and for other business purposes. The Credit Facility subjects the Borrower to mandatory repayments upon the occurrence of certain events as set forth in the Credit Facility.
To secure the payment of the obligations under the Credit Facility, the Borrower granted the Lender a security interest in all of Borrower’s assets, including inventory, equipment, fixtures, accounts, chattel paper, instruments, deposit accounts, documents, general intangibles, letters of credit rights, and all judgments, claims and insurance policies.
In August 2008, the Lender eliminated the requirement of $5.0 million reserve from the calculation of eligible accounts receivable, plus 100% of unsold inventory financed by the Lender.
On December 5, 2008, the Borrower entered into a First Amendment and Joinder to Loan and Security Agreement and Schedule to Loan and Security Agreement (the “First Amendment”) with the Lender, pursuant to which the Lender extended the term of the loans issued to the Borrower under the Loan and Security Agreement from December 7, 2008 until December 7, 2010 and made certain other amendments to the Loan and Security Agreement, including the following:
38
§ | The First Amendment changed the base rate of interest to the three month (90 day) LIBOR rate from the previous base rate of the “Prime Rate.” |
§ | The First Amendment changed the interest rate for revolving credit loans to the base rate plus 3.25% from the previous interest rate for revolving credit loans of the base rate minus 0.5%, and changed the interest rate for floorplan loans, if applicable, to 6.25% in excess of the base rate from the previous interest rate for floorplan loans of 2.5% in excess of the base rate. |
§ | The First Amendment amended the Schedule to provide that the Borrowers must pay the Lender a floorplan annual volume commitment fee if the aggregate amount of all floorplan loans does not equal or exceed $60,000,000 in a 12 month period from December 1st through November 30th. The floorplan commitment fee is equal to the amount that the floorplan usage during such 12 month period is less than $60,000,000 multiplied by 1%. If the Borrower terminates the Credit Facility during a 12 month period, the Borrower shall be required to pay the Lender a pro rated portion of the annual volume commitment fee. |
In addition by executing the First Amendment, Emtec Global, Luceo, eBAS and Aveeva each joined the Credit Facility as a Borrower and granted DLL a security interest in all of all of their respective interests in certain of their respective assets, including inventory, equipment, fixtures, accounts, chattel paper, instruments, deposit accounts, documents, general intangibles, letter of credits rights, and all judgments, claims and insurance policies. Emtec Global pledged 100% of the outstanding shares of its domestic subsidiaries, eBAS and Luceo, and Emtec Global and Aveeva pledged 65% in the aggregate of the outstanding shares of Aviance Software (India) Pvt. Ltd., an Indian company.
In addition, the Lender and Avnet, Inc., one of our trade creditors, entered into an inter-creditor agreement in which the Lender agreed to give Avnet a first lien position on all future unbilled service maintenance billings and which provides that, as regards to Avnet, all debt obligations to the Lender are accorded priority.
As of May 31, 2009, we had an outstanding balance of $10.78 million under the revolving portion of the Credit Facility and $3.47 million of outstanding (included in the Company’s accounts payable) balances plus $366,700 in open approvals under the floor plan portion of the Credit Facility with Lender. As of May 31, 2009, we had net availability of $7.27 million under the revolving portion of the Credit Facility and additional net availability of $10.11 million under the floor plan portion of the Credit Facility.
As of May 31, 2009, the Company determined that it was in compliance with its financial covenants with the Lender.
As of May 31, 2009, we had open term credit facilities with our primary trade vendors, including aggregators and manufacturers, of approximately $27.20 million with outstanding principal of approximately $13.92 million. Under these lines, we are typically obligated to pay each invoice within 30-45 days from the date of such invoice. These credit lines could be reduced or eliminated without notice and this action could have a material adverse affect on our business, result of operations, and financial condition.
39
Capital expenditures of $794,838 during the nine months ended May 31, 2009 related primarily to the purchase and implementation of the voice over internet provider (VOIP) phone system, purchase of computer equipment for internal use, purchase of a document management system and software costs to upgrade various modules of our accounting systems. We anticipate our total capital expenditures for our fiscal year ending August 31, 2009 will be approximately $1,000,000, of which approximately $250,000 will be for the upgrade of our organizational computer system and the remaining $750,000 will primarily be for the purchase of the VOIP phone system, the purchase of computer equipment for internal use, furniture, delivery trucks and leasehold improvements.
We anticipate that our primary sources of liquidity for the balance of fiscal year 2009 will be cash generated from operations, trade vendor credit and cash available to us under our Credit Facility. Our future financial performance will depend on our ability to continue to reduce and manage operating expenses as well as our ability to grow revenues. Any loss of clients, whether due to price competition technological advances or any other reason, will have an adverse affect on our revenues. Our future financial performance could be negatively affected by unforeseen factors and unplanned expenses.
We have no arrangements or other relationships with unconsolidated entities or other persons that are reasonably likely to materially affect liquidity or the availability of or requirements for capital resources.
We believe that funds generated from operations, trade vendor credit and borrowings under our Credit Facility should be sufficient to meet our current operating cash requirements through the next twelve months. However, there can be no assurance that all of the aforementioned sources of cash can be realized. Our lenders, including the lender for our credit facility, may have suffered losses related to their lending and other financial relationships, especially because of the general weakening of the national economy and increased financial instability of many borrowers. As a result, lenders may become insolvent or tighten their lending standards, which could make it more difficult for us to borrow under our credit facility or to obtain other financing on favorable terms or at all. Our financial condition and results of operations would be adversely affected if we were unable to draw funds under our Credit Facility because of a lender default or to obtain other cost-effective financing.
Critical Accounting Policies
Our financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles that are generally accepted in the United States. The methods, estimates, and judgments we use in applying our most critical accounting policies have a significant impact on the results we report in our financial statements. The SEC has defined critical accounting policies as policies that involve critical accounting estimates that require (i) management to make assumptions that are highly uncertain at the time the estimate is made, and (ii) different estimates that could have been reasonably used for the current period, or changes in the estimates that are reasonably likely to occur from period to period, which would have a material impact on the presentation of our financial condition, changes in financial condition or in result of operations. Based on this definition, our most critical policies include: revenue recognition, allowance for doubtful accounts, inventory valuation reserve, the assessment of recoverability of long-lived assets, the assessment of recoverability of goodwill and intangible assets, rebates and income taxes.
Revenue Recognition
We recognize revenue from the sales of products when risk of loss and title passes which is upon client acceptance.
40
Revenue from the sale of warranties and support service contracts is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the contract, in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board Technical Bulleting No. 90-1, Accounting for Separately Priced Extended Warranty and Product Maintenance Contracts (“FTB 90-1”).
We may also enter into sales arrangements with clients that contain multiple elements. We recognize revenue from sale arrangements that contain both products and manufacturer warranties in accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) Issue No. 00-21, “Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables,” based on the relative fair value of the individual components. The relative fair value of individual components is based on historical sales of the components sold separately.
Product revenue represents sales of computer hardware and pre-packaged software. These arrangements often include software installations, configurations and imaging, along with delivery and set-up of hardware. We follow the criteria contained in EITF 00-21 and Staff Accounting Bulletin 104 (“SAB 104”) in recognizing revenue associated with these transactions. We perform software installations, configurations and imaging services at our locations prior to the delivery of the product. Some client arrangements include “set-up” services performed at client locations where our personnel perform the routine tasks of removing the equipment from boxes, and setting up the equipment at client workstations by plugging in all necessary connections. This service is usually performed the same day as delivery. Revenue is recognized on the date of acceptance, except as follows:
§ | In some instances, the “set-up” service is performed after date of delivery. We recognize revenue for the “hardware” component at date of delivery when the amount of revenue allocable to this component is not contingent upon the completion of “set-up” services and, therefore, our client has agreed that the transaction is complete as to the “hardware” component. In instances where our client does not accept delivery until “set-up” services are completed, we defer all revenue in the transaction until client acceptance occurs. |
§ | There are occasions when a client requests a transaction on a “bill & hold” basis. We follow the SAB 104 criteria and recognize revenue from these sales prior to date of physical delivery only when all the criteria of SAB 104 are met. We do not modify our normal billing and credit terms for these clients. The client is invoiced at the date of revenue recognition when all of the criteria have been met. |
We have experienced minimal client returns. Since some eligible products must be returned to us within 30 days from the date of the invoice, we reduce the product revenue and cost of goods in each accounting period based on the actual returns that occurred in the next 30 days after the close of the accounting period.
Revenues from the sale of third party manufacturer warranties and manufacturer support service contracts where the manufacturer is responsible for fulfilling the service requirements of the client are recognized immediately on their contract sale date. Manufacturer support service contracts contain cancellation privileges that allow our clients to terminate a contract with 90 days’ written notice. In this event, the client is entitled to a pro-rated refund based on the remaining term of the contract, and we would owe the manufacturer a pro-rated refund of the cost of the contract. However, we have experienced no client cancellations of any significance during our most recent 3-year history and we do not expect cancellations of any significance in the future. As the Company is not obligated to perform these services, we determined it is more appropriate to recognize the net amount of the revenue and related payments as net revenue at the time of sale, pursuant to the guidelines of Emerging Issues Task Force 99-19, “Reporting Revenue Gross as a Principal versus Net as an Agent.”
41
Service and consulting revenue include time billings based upon billable hours charged to clients, fixed price short-term projects, and hardware maintenance contracts. These contracts generally are task specific and do not involve multiple deliverables. Revenues from time billings are recognized as services are delivered. Revenues from short-term fixed price projects are recognized using the proportionate performance method by determining the level of service performed based upon the amount of labor cost incurred on the project versus the total labor costs to perform the project because this is the most readily reliable measure of output. Revenues from hardware maintenance contracts are recognized ratably over the contract period.
Trade Receivables
We maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of our clients to make required payments. We base our estimates on the aging of our accounts receivable balances and our historical write-off experience, net of recoveries. If the financial condition of our clients were to deteriorate, additional allowances may be required. We believe the accounting estimate related to the allowance for doubtful accounts is a “critical accounting estimate” because changes in it can significantly affect net income.
Inventories
Inventory is stated at the lower of average cost or market. Inventory is entirely finished goods purchased for resale and consists of computer hardware, computer software, computer peripherals and related supplies. We provide an inventory reserve for products we determine are obsolete or where salability has deteriorated based on management’s review of products and sales.
Goodwill and Intangible Assets
We have adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142 “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets” (“SFAS 142”). As a result, amortization of goodwill was discontinued. Goodwill is the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net assets acquired in a business combination accounted for under the purchase method. We test goodwill and indefinite-lived assets for impairment at least annually (on June 1) in accordance with SFAS 142.
Intangible assets at May 31, 2009 and August 31, 2008 consisted of the value ascribed to customer relationships and noncompete covenants. The assets ascribed to customer relationships are being amortized on a straight-line basis over 5 to 15 years and five years for noncompete covenants. Intangible assets are tested for recoverability whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amount may not be recoverable in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144 “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.” Recoverability of long-lived assets is assessed by a comparison of the carrying amount to the estimated undiscounted future net cash flows expected to result from the use of the assets and their eventual disposition. If estimated undiscounted future net cash flows are less than the carrying amount, the asset is considered impaired and a loss would be recognized based on the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value of the asset.
Rebates
Rebates are recorded in the accompanying consolidated statements of income as a reduction of the cost of revenues in accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force Abstract No. 02-16, Accounting by a Client (Including a Reseller) for Certain Consideration Received from a Vendor (EITF 02-16).
42
Income Taxes
Income taxes are accounted for under an asset and liability approach that requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in our financial statements or tax returns. In estimating future tax consequences, we generally consider all expected future events other than the enactment of changes in tax laws or rates. A valuation allowance is recognized if, on weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. On September 1, 2007, the Company adopted FASB Interpretation No. 48 (“FIN 48”). FIN 48 prescribes a recognition threshold that a tax position is required to meet before being recognized in the financial statements and provides guidance on de-recognition, measurement, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition issues.
43
Item 3. | Quantitative and Qualitative Information About Market Risk |
We do not engage in trading market risk sensitive instruments and do not purchase hedging instruments or “other than trading” instruments that are likely to expose us to market risk, whether interest rate, foreign currency exchange, commodity price or equity price risk. We have entered into no forward or future contracts, purchased no options and entered into no swaps. Our primary market risk exposures are those of interest rate fluctuations. A change in interest rates would affect the rate at which we could borrow funds under our revolving credit facility. Our balance on the line of credit at May 31, 2009 was approximately $11.0 million. Assuming no material increase or decrease in such balance, a one percent change in the interest rate would change our interest expense by approximately $110,000 annually.
44
Item 4T. | Controls and Procedures |
(a) Our management carried out an evaluation, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of May 31, 2009. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures including the accumulation and communication of disclosures to the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer as appropriate to allow timely decision regarding required disclosure, were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act are recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC. It should be noted that the design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving the stated goals under all potential future conditions, regardless of how remote.
(b) There has not been any change in our internal control over financial reporting in connection with the evaluation required by Rule 13a-15(d) under the Exchange Act that occurred during the quarter ended May 31, 2009 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
