XETA TECHNOLOGIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
January 31, 2009
(Unaudited)
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION:
XETA Technologies, Inc. (“XETA” or the “Company”) is a leading integrator of advanced communications technologies with nationwide sales and service. XETA serves a diverse group of business clients in sales, engineering, project management, implementation, and service support. The Company sells products produced by a variety of manufacturers including Avaya, Inc. (“Avaya”), Nortel Networks Corporation (“Nortel”), and Mitel Corporation (“Mitel”). In addition, the Company manufactures and markets a line of proprietary call accounting systems to the hospitality industry. XETA is an Oklahoma corporation.
The Company prepared the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to reasonably insure the information is not misleading. Management suggests that these condensed financial statements be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto made a part of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, Commission File No. 0-16231, which was filed with the Commission on January 23, 2009. Management believes that the financial statements contain all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods presented. All adjustments were of a normal recurring nature. The results of operations for the interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results for the entire fiscal year.
Segment Information
The Company has three reportable segments: services, commercial system sales, and hospitality system sales. Services revenues represent revenues earned from installing and maintaining systems for customers in both the commercial and hospitality segments. The Company defines commercial system sales as sales to the non-hospitality industry.
The reporting segments follow the same accounting policies used for the Company’s consolidated financial statements and are described in the Summary of Significant Accounting Policies in the Company’s Form 10-K described above. Company management evaluates a segment’s performance based on gross margins. Assets are not allocated to the segments. Sales outside of the U.S. are immaterial.
The following is a tabulation of business segment information for the three months ended January 31, 2009 and 2008:

Stock-Based Compensation Plans
The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (revised 2004), “Share-Based Payment” (“SFAS No. 123(R)”). SFAS No. 123(R) requires companies to measure all employee stock-based compensation awards using a fair value method and recognize compensation cost in its financial statements. The Company recognizes the fair value of stock-based compensation awards as selling, general and administrative expense as appropriate in the consolidated statements of operations on a straight-line basis over the vesting period. Compensation expense was recognized in the statements of operations as follows:

Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
New Accounting Pronouncements
On November 1, 2008 the Company adopted Statement of Financial Standards No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“SFAS No. 157”). SFAS No. 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This statement does not require any new fair value measurements; rather, it applies under other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements. The adoption of SFAS No. 157 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.
In December 2007 the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued SFAS No. 141 (revised 2007), “Business Combinations” (“SFAS No. 141(R)”). Under SFAS No. 141(R), an entity is required to recognize the assets acquired, liabilities assumed, contractual contingencies, and contingent consideration at their fair value on the acquisition date. It further requires that acquisition-related costs are recognized separately from the acquisition and expensed as incurred, restructuring costs generally expensed in periods subsequent to the acquisition date, and changes in accounting for deferred tax asset valuation allowances and acquired income tax uncertainties after the measurement period impact income tax expense. The adoption of SFAS No. 141(R) will change the accounting treatment for business combinations on a prospective basis beginning in the first quarter of fiscal year 2010.
In December 2007 the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements—an amendment of ARB No. 51” (“SFAS No. 160”). SFAS No. 160 changes the accounting and reporting for minority interests, which will be recharacterized as non-controlling interests and classified as a component of equity. SFAS No. 160 is effective for us on a prospective basis for business combinations with an acquisition date beginning in the first quarter of fiscal year 2010. As of October 31, 2008, the Company did not have any minority interests; therefore the adoption of SFAS No. 160 is not expected to have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
On February 20, 2008 the FASB issued FASB Staff Position (“FSP”) on Financial Accounting Standards No. 140-3, “Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets and Repurchase Financing Transactions”. The FSP provides guidance on the accounting for a transfer of a financial asset and a repurchase financing. Repurchase financing is a repurchase agreement that relates to a previously transferred financial asset between the same counterparties (or consolidated affiliates of either counterparty), that is entered into contemporaneously with, or in contemplation of, the initial transfer. Under the FSP, a transferor and transferee will not separately account for a transfer of a financial asset and a related repurchase financing unless: (a) the two transactions have a valid and distinct business or economic purpose for being entered into separately; and (b) the repurchase financing does not result in the initial transferor regaining control

over the financial asset. An initial transfer of a financial asset and repurchase financing that are entered into contemporaneously with, or in contemplation of, one another shall be considered linked unless all of the following criteria are met at the inception of the transaction:
· The initial transfer and the repurchase financing are not contractually contingent on one another.
· The repurchase financing provides the initial transferor with recourse to the initial transferee upon default.
· The financial asset subject to the initial transfer and repurchase financing is readily obtainable in the marketplace.
· The financial asset and repurchase agreement are not coterminous (the maturity of the repurchase financing must be before the maturity of the financial asset).
The FSP is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Earlier application is not permitted. The Company does not currently utilize repurchase financing; therefore, the implementation of this FSP is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.
In March 2008 the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, “Disclosure about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, an amendment of SFAS No. 133”, (“SFAS No. 161”). This statement requires that objectives for using derivative instruments be disclosed in terms of underlying risk and accounting designation. The Company is required to adopt SFAS No. 161 on or before November 1, 2009. The Company currently does not participate in any derivative instruments or hedging activities as defined under SFAS No. 133 and therefore it is unlikely that the adoption of SFAS No. 161 will have any impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In April 2008 the FASB issued FASB Staff Position on Financial Accounting Standard No. 142-3, “Determination of the Useful Life of Intangible Assets”, which amends the factors that should be considered in developing renewal or extension assumptions used to determine the useful life of intangible assets under SFAS No. 142 “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets”. The intent of this FSP is to improve the consistency between the useful life of a recognized intangible asset under SFAS No. 142 and the period of the expected cash flows used to measure the fair value of the asset under SFAS No. 141 (revised 2007) “Business Combinations” and other U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The Company will adopt this FSP in the first quarter of fiscal 2010 and will apply the guidance prospectively to intangible assets acquired after adoption.
In May 2008 the FASB issued SFAS No. 162, “The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles” (“SFAS No. 162”). SFAS No. 162 identifies the sources of accounting principles and the framework for selecting the principles used in the preparation of financial statements. SFAS No. 162 became effective on November 15, 2008 following the SEC’s approval of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board amendments to AU Section 411, “The Meaning of Present Fairly in Conformity with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles”. The implementation of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations.

On January 14, 2009 Nortel Networks Corporation (“Nortel”) filed for bankruptcy protection in the United States. At the time of the filing, Nortel owed approximately $685,000 for services rendered under the Company’s wholesale managed services program in which the Company is engaged by Nortel to provide field technical services to Nortel’s end-user customers. The bankruptcy is in its early stages and at the time of this filing, Nortel has not filed its reorganization plan. Therefore our ability to assess the probability of recovering pre-petition amounts due is limited. As of January 31, 2009, we have recorded $350,000 as a reserve against possible bad debts. This provision represents fifty percent of the unsecured claim. We are carefully following developments in the bankruptcy case and will assert our available legal rights and defenses when appropriate.

5. INCOME TAXES:
The tax provision reflects the effective Federal tax rate plus the composite state income tax rates adjusted for states that require minimum tax payments even if tax losses are incurred. Generally, we expect our tax provision rate to be approximately 40%.

6. CREDIT AGREEMENTS:
The Company has a credit facility with a commercial bank that includes a term loan and a $7.5 million revolving line of credit. The facility matures on September 30, 2009. The term loan, which is collateralized with a first mortgage on the Broken Arrow, Oklahoma, headquarters, amortizes based on a 13 year life. The revolving line of credit is used to finance growth in working capital and is collateralized by trade accounts receivable and inventories.
At January 31, 2009 and October 31, 2008, the Company had approximately $3.180 million and $2.524 million, respectively, outstanding on the revolving line of credit. The Company had approximately $4.3 million available under the revolving line of credit at January 31, 2009. Advance rates are defined in the agreement, but are generally at the rate of 80% on qualified trade accounts receivable and 40% of qualified inventories. Long term debt consisted of the following:

Interest on all outstanding debt under the credit facility accrues at either a) the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) (.419% at January 31, 2009) plus 1.25% to 2.75% depending on the Company’s funded debt to cash flow ratio, or b) the bank’s prime rate (4.0% at January 31, 2009) minus 0% to minus 1.125% also depending on the Company’s funded debt to cash flow ratio. At January 31, 2009 the Company was paying 2.875% on the revolving line of credit borrowings and 3.00% on the mortgage note. The credit facility contains several financial covenants common in such agreements including tangible net worth requirements, limitations on the amount of funded debt to annual earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, limitations on capital spending, and debt service coverage requirements. At January 31, 2009 the Company was in compliance with the covenants of the credit facility.
7. EARNINGS PER SHARE:
The Company computes basic earnings per common share by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the reporting periods. Dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock and dilutive potential common stock outstanding during the reporting periods computes diluted earnings per common share. A reconciliation of net income and weighted average shares used in computing basic and diluted earnings per share is as follows:

Options to purchase 1,288,300 shares of common stock at an average exercise price of $6.43 and 774,900 shares of common stock at an average exercise price of $8.43 were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share for the three months ended January 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively, because inclusion of these options would be antidilutive.
8. CAPITAL LEASES:
During 2008, the Company leased software licenses under an agreement that is classified as a capital lease. The book value of the licenses is included in the balance sheet as property, plant, and equipment and was $367,752 at January 31, 2009. Accumulated amortization of the leased equipment at January 31, 2009 was $88,768. Amortization of assets under the capital lease is included in depreciation expense. The future minimum lease payments required under the capital lease and the present value of the net minimum lease payments as of January 31, 2009, are as follows:

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Preliminary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
In the following discussion, we make forward-looking statements relating to future events and our future performance and results. All statements other than those that are purely historical may be forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements generally include words such as “expects,” “anticipates,” “may”, “plans,�� “believes,” “intends,” “projects,” “estimates,” “targets,” “may,” “should” and similar words or expressions. Such statements are not guarantees of performance, but rather reflect our current expectation, estimates, and forecasts about the industry and markets in which we operate, and our assumptions and beliefs based upon information currently available to us. These statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that are difficult to predict or are beyond our control. Examples of these risks include: the U.S. economic crisis and its impact on capital spending trends in our markets; the tightening of credit availability in the U.S.; the recent bankruptcy filing by Nortel Networks; the financial condition of our suppliers in general and changes by them in their distribution strategies and support; our ability to maintain and improve upon current gross profit margins; unpredictable revenue levels from quarter to quarter; continuing acceptance and success of the Mitel product and services offering; intense competition and industry consolidation; dependence upon a few large wholesale customers in our Managed Services offering; and the availability and retention of revenue professionals and certified technicians, and other . These and other risks and uncertainties are discussed under the heading “Risk Factors” under Part I of the Company’s Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2008 (filed with the Commission on January 23, 2009), and in updates to such risk factors set forth in Item 1A of Part II of this quarterly report. Because of these risks and uncertainties, actual results may differ materially and adversely from those expressed in forward-looking statements. Consequently, we caution investors to read and consider all forward-looking statements in conjunction with such risk factors and uncertainties. The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides a safe-harbor for forward-looking statements made by the Company.
Overview
Strategy.
In fiscal 2009 we have adopted five primary strategies: continue to acquire market share through aggressive sales activities; take advantage of Avaya’s new channel-centric go-to-market strategy; focus on fast growing applications such as unified communications; focus on industry verticals such as hospitality, healthcare and education; and augment growth through targeted acquisitions.
In addition to these strategies, senior management initiated an internal program to improve operational methods and practices. The purpose of this effort is to identify internal opportunities to reduce costs. These efforts are ongoing, and include development of new and refined processes; organize back office activities for improved labor utilization; use internal systems and technologies to automate routine activities; and review workforce utilization to ensure appropriate staffing composition.
Special Considerations.
On January 14, 2009 Nortel Networks Corporation filed for bankruptcy protection in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware. This filing was the culmination of Nortel’s efforts to “put [Nortel] on sound financial footing once and for all” as stated publicly by Nortel’s president and chief executive, Mike Zafirovski. Nortel is one of our major suppliers and represents a significant portion of our business. As such this filing is of considerable concern. Presently we expect our post-petition relationship with Nortel to continue without interruption. However, management clearly recognizes the potential impact of Nortel’s filing on the Company’s financial performance. In response we are closely monitoring developments associated with the filing and will respond appropriately as new information becomes available.
Nortel currently owes XETA approximately $685,000 in pre-petition accounts receivable at January 31, 2009. At this filing the bankruptcy is in its early stages and Nortel has not filed its reorganization plan. This limits our ability to assess the probability of recovering pre-petition amounts due. As of January 31,
13
2009, we have recorded $350,000 as an additional reserve against possible bad debts. This provision represents one-half of the unsecured claim. We are carefully following developments in the bankruptcy case and will assert our legal rights and defenses as appropriate.
Operating Summary.
In the first quarter of fiscal 2009, we earned net income of $2,000 on revenues of $18.58 million compared to net income of $389,000 on revenues of $17.95 million in the first fiscal quarter of 2008. These results reflect a cautionary bad debt provision of $350,000 in response to Nortel’s bankruptcy filing and the challenges posed by macroeconomic conditions.
Financial Position Summary.
Since October 31, 2008, our financial condition improved and we generated positive cash flows from operations. We discuss these and other financial items in more detail under “Financial Condition” below.
The following discussion presents additional information regarding our financial condition and results of operations for the three month period ended January 31, 2009 and 2008 and should be considered in conjunction with our above comments as well as the “Risk Factors” section below.
Financial Condition
Our financial condition improved during the first fiscal quarter of 2009 as our working capital grew by 6% to $9.9 million. In addition we generated $525,000 in cash flows from operations. These cash flows included non-cash charges of $1.66 million, a decrease in accounts receivable of $1.59 million, and an increase in deferred tax liabilities of $210,000. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in accounts payable of $1.30 million, an increase in inventory of $883,000 and other changes in working capital items, which netted a decrease in cash of $113,000. We increased borrowings on our working capital line of credit of $656,000 and received proceeds from the sale of capital assets of $5,000. We used cash to reduce our mortgage balance through scheduled principal payments by $43,000; to purchase capitalized service contracts of $750,000; to fund other financing and investing activities of $85,000; and to acquire capital assets of $219,000. Of these expenditures, $114,000 was spent on capital equipment as part of normal replacement of our Information Technology infrastructure and headquarters facility improvements. The remaining $99,000 was spent on our Oracle implementation. Non-cash charges included depreciation of $225,000; amortization of $322,000; stock-based compensation of $70,000; a loss on the sale of assets of $4,000; a provision for doubtful accounts receivable of $365,000; and a provision for obsolete inventory of $26,000.
As noted above, our deferred tax liabilities increased $210,000 during the first fiscal quarter of 2009 and the balance of our noncurrent deferred tax liabilities was $5.7 million at January 31, 2009. Most of this balance and the increase in this account are due to the difference in accounting for Goodwill between generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and the U.S. tax code. Under GAAP, Goodwill is not amortized, but instead is evaluated for impairment. This evaluation is conducted as conditions warrant, but not less than annually under the guidelines set forth in SFAS No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets”. For tax purposes, Goodwill is amortized on a straight-line basis over 15 years. As a result, the Company receives a tax deduction of approximately 1/15th of its Goodwill balance each year in its tax return. This difference between no amortization expense being recorded in the GAAP-based operating statements and approximately $1.8 million in deductions taken on the tax return is recognized in the balance sheet as additional noncurrent deferred tax liabilities. The amount recorded is the difference multiplied by the effective tax rate. This difference is recorded as a noncurrent item because under GAAP deferred taxes are recorded as current or noncurrent based on the classification of the asset or liability which generated the deferred tax item. The deferred tax liability associated with accounting for Goodwill will not be reduced unless the Company records an impairment charge to Goodwill in a future accounting period.
At January 31, 2009 the balance on our working capital revolver was $3.2 million, with $4.3 million additional borrowings available. We believe that this capacity is sufficient to support our operating requirements for the foreseeable future. The working capital revolver and the mortgage on our headquarters facility are scheduled to mature on September 30, 2009. We expect to renew these instruments for 12-month and 36-month periods, respectively, prior to their expiration. Given current credit market conditions, it is
14
likely that such renewals could result in higher borrowing costs and/or reduced availability for unsecured borrowings. In addition to the available capacity under our working capital line of credit, we believe we may have access to a variety of capital sources such as bank debt, private placements of subordinated debt, and public or private sales of equity.
Results of Operations
In the first quarter of fiscal 2009 our revenues increased $630,000 or 4% compared to the first quarter of 2008, and our net income decreased $387,000 or 99%. These results reflect higher sales in our major revenue categories. However, the impact of these increased revenues was offset by a $350,000 bad debt provision in response to Nortel’s bankruptcy filing. The narrative below provides further explanation of these results.
Systems Sales.
In the first quarter of fiscal 2009, systems sales increased approximately $872,000 or 11% compared to the same period last year. This increase includes a $267,000 or 4% increase in sales of systems to commercial customers and a $605,000 or 36% increase in sales of systems to hospitality customers. The increase in sales to commercial customers primarily reflects the maturation of our backlog at the conclusion of fiscal 2008. These revenues were balanced across a number of large projects shipped during the last one-third of the quarter.
The quarterly growth in sales of systems to hospitality customers reflects our continued success in this niche market. Results support our strategy to expand the revenues associated with our Mitel product offering. The Mitel product line provides us with the opportunity to work with hotel chains and property management companies that have standardized on the Mitel product line. In addition, the Mitel offering is well-suited to properties of 150 rooms and below. This presents us an avenue to aggressively pursue system sales opportunities in this property category. We are pleased with our hospitality results and will continue to exploit opportunities across this segment. While we anticipate continued success in the hospitality market, given economic conditions, we expect future revenue performance at or below historical levels.
Services Revenues.
Our services revenues increased $268,000 or 3% in the first quarter compared to the same period last year. Services revenues consist of the following:
|
| For the Three Months Ended |
| ||||
|
| 2009 |
| 2008 |
| ||
Contract & T&M |
| $ | 6,975,000 |
| $ | 7,208,000 |
|
Implementation |
| 2,186,000 |
| 2,042,000 |
| ||
Cabling |
| 832,000 |
| 475,000 |
| ||
Total Services revenues |
| $ | 9,993,000 |
| $ | 9,725,000 |
|
Contract and time-and-materials (T&M) revenues decreased 3% in the first quarter. This performance reflects relatively flat growth in our wholesale services programs and a modest decline in T&M service revenues. We believe these revenues were influenced by general economic conditions as customers reduced spending on non-critical services. Also, we experienced some customer churn in our wholesale services business during the quarter.
Implementation revenues increased 7% in the first fiscal quarter. We attribute this to increasing demand for complex communication systems. These projects require significant fee-generating design and engineering services provided by our Professional Services Organization (“PSO”). As the market continues to displace conventional communication platforms and adopt complex systems, we anticipate continued growth in this area of our business through the fee-based utilization of these highly skilled technical resources.
Cabling revenues increased 75% in the first fiscal quarter. This increase is attributed primarily to revenues associated with a small number of major cabling projects. We are pleased with the beneficial growth
15
provided by these projects and continue to aggressively market our national cabling capabilities. However, no assurance can be given that subsequent periods will produce similar performance.
Gross Margins.
The table below presents the gross margins earned on our primary revenue streams:
|
| For the Three Months |
| ||
Gross Margins |
| 2009 |
| 2008 |
|
Systems sales |
| 26.1 | % | 25.0 | % |
Services revenues |
| 30.1 | % | 26.7 | % |
Other revenues |
| -7,869.4 | % | 89.0 | % |
Corporate cost of goods sold |
| -2.0 | % | -2.2 | % |
Total |
| 25.9 | % | 25.6 | % |
Gross margins on systems sales in the first fiscal quarter improved slightly over last year exceeding our target of 23% to 25% for systems revenues. These results are due primarily to strong margins in our hospitality business. We continue to receive considerable pricing support from our manufactures in the form of project-specific discounts and incentive rebates. These incentives are material to our gross margins and we work diligently to maximize this support; however, no assurance can be given that future support will continue at historical levels.
The gross margins earned on Services revenues reflect improved results in this area of our business. The contributing factors associated with these improved results center on a 43% growth in cabling revenues, a reduction in fixed costs, and the use of third party Quality Service Partners to maximize margins on these revenues. In addition we benefited from improved utilization of our PSO and realized favorable results from cost containment efforts.
The final component of our gross margins is the margins earned on other revenues and our corporate cost of goods sold. We earn the majority of other revenues from the sale of Avaya maintenance contracts on which we earn either a commission or gross profit. We have no continuing service obligation associated with these revenues and gross profits. In the first quarter we experienced a dramatic drop in other revenues as compared to the first quarter of 2008. The decline was expected as we benefitted from record levels of commissions earned from Avaya throughout 2008 as customers purchased or renewed Avaya service contracts at a higher than normal pace in anticipation of manufacturer price increases for these services. We expect revenues on this element of our business to return to historical norms in 2009. This is an unpredictable revenue stream that depends on the expiration dates of existing contracts, installation dates of new systems, the customer type as defined by Avaya, and the number of years that customers contract for services. Other revenues may also include sales and cost of goods sold on equipment or services outside our normal provisioning processes. These revenues vary in both sales volume and gross margins earned. Corporate cost of goods sold represents our material logistics and purchasing functions that support all of our revenue segments.
Operating Expenses.
Our total operating expenses increased $913,000 or 24% in the first quarter of fiscal 2009 compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2008. Operating expenses were 25.7% of revenues in the first quarter compared to 21.5% in the first quarter last year. The growth in operating expenses in the quarter over quarter comparison reflects several factors:
· Significant bad debt provision in response to the Nortel bankruptcy filing
· Increased expenditures to support the Oracle platform
· Increased board of director fees to support the addition of independent membership to the board
· Increased legal fees to support litigation and board activities
· Increased non-cash charges related to stock compensation expense for equity grants provided to management and key employees
· Increased amortization of: Oracle platform in association with its expanded utilization; and intangible assets associated with recent acquisitions of customer lists and service contracts
16
For the quarter operating expenses were impacted by all of the factors listed above. Unfortunately these expenses grew faster than our revenues due in part to the bad debt provision associated with the Nortel bankruptcy. However, even considering the Nortel provision, operating expenses were higher than our targets. We are targeting operating expenses of 18% to 20% of revenues over the next two to four years as we realize economies of scale.
Interest Expense and Other Income.
Net interest and other expense was $19,000 in the first quarter of fiscal 2009 compared to $85,000 in net interest and other expense in the first quarter of fiscal 2008. This decrease reflects both lower interest rates, and a reduction in borrowings.
Tax Provision.
The tax provision reflects the effective Federal tax rate plus the composite state income tax rates adjusted for states that require minimum tax payments even if tax losses are incurred. Generally, we expect our tax provision rate to be approximately 40%.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. Based on an evaluation conducted as of January 31, 2009 by our management, including our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and our Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), our CEO and CFO have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) are effective to reasonably ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the CEO and CFO, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Controls. There were no changes in our internal controls or in other factors that could materially affect, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, these controls subsequent to the date of their evaluation.
There has been no change in the status of the Design Business Communications, Inc., d/b/a/ American Telephone (“AMTEL”) matter since we last reported on it in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2008, filed on January 23, 2009.
Subsequent to the end of our first quarter for fiscal 2009, we reached a settlement agreement with a former employee in a routine employment related matter first referenced in our Form 10-Q for the quarter ended April 30, 2008, filed on June 5, 2008. The settlement did not have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.
Additionally, we are involved as a plaintiff in another matter which we consider to be routine and incidental to the operation of our business. We do not believe this proceeding will have a material affect on our financial position or results of operations.
The information presented below is an update to the “Risk Factors” included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2008 and should be read in conjunction
17
therewith. Except as set forth below, the Risk Factors included in the Company’s Form 10-K for its 2008 fiscal year have not materially changed.
Our business is affected by capital spending. Current economic conditions and the ability of our customers to access credit may reduce capital spending over the next twelve months and beyond.
The U.S. economy is mired in a recessionary contraction and, despite efforts by the Federal Government to stabilize the banking and financial systems, credit availability remains limited for nearly all enterprises, hence the outlook for corporate profits is uncertain. These factors are contributing to a high degree of uncertainty concerning capital spending in 2009. Because our business depends on capital spending for technology and equipment, we may experience a decline in demand for our products. Such a decline may have a material, negative impact on our operating results and financial condition.
Nortel’s Chapter 11 bankruptcy filing may result in both a short-term and long-term financial loss for the Company.
Nortel filed a voluntary petition for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection on January 14, 2009. We are owed approximately $685,000 in pre-petition accounts receivable. Based on filings approved by the bankruptcy court allowing Nortel to fund post-petition business operations, we plan to continue to provide services to Nortel’s end-user customers under our wholesale services relationship, which currently produces approximately $3 million in annual revenues. If our pre-petition claims are not collectible either in whole or in large part, we could experience material, negative operating results in the near term. Furthermore, it is impossible to predict the long term impact of Nortel’s bankruptcy filing on our managed services revenues or our Nortel equipment business. As such, our ongoing revenues and future financial results could be materially impaired in the event that Nortel is unable to fund its future operations; end-users elect to abandon their Nortel equipment for other products; Nortel implements dramatic changes to its business plan and strategies that negatively affect our relationship with Nortel as a business partner and/or vendor; the U.S. and global economic crisis negatively impacts Nortel’s ability to reorganize operations; and/or Nortel is unable to continue as debtor in possession or to emerge from bankruptcy.
Our manufacturers’ strategies regarding the provision of equipment and services to their customers may change dramatically and could have a material impact on our operating results.
Avaya is repositioning itself as a hardware and software manufacturer providing a wide range of voice communications hardware and applications to its customers. As part of this strategy, Avaya is segmenting its hardware maintenance and software support. The new software support offerings include technical support for specific voice applications and upgrade services to ensure customers can access all software patches and upgrades. Currently, we earn revenues from some of our customers, particularly hospitality customers, to provide the products and services now being included by Avaya in its new software support offerings. These changes could have a material, negative impact on our operating results if our revenues or margins are reduced in response to these mandated changes by Avaya.
As a result of its bankruptcy Nortel could revise its market strategy, and a revision could have a material, negative impact on our operating results if our revenues or margins are reduced as a result of a change in strategy. While we do not currently anticipate changes in Nortel’s strategy, we cannot provide any assurance that the Nortel business relationship will produce beneficial contributions to our financial performance as described in our earlier filings.
