The accompanying notes are an integral part of these financial statements
WARP 9, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - UNAUDITED
DECEMBER 31, 2007
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited 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 Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all normal recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the six month period ended December 31, 2007 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending June 30, 2008. For further information refer to the financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's Form 10K-SB/A for the year ended June 30, 2007.
Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis of accounting, which contemplates continuity of operations, realization of assets and liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The accompanying financial statements do not reflect any adjustments that might result if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern. The Company's losses and negative cash flows from operations raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern and appropriateness of using the going concern basis is dependent upon, among other things, additional cash infusion.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
This summary of significant accounting policies of Warp 9, Inc. is presented to assist in understanding the Company’s financial statements. The financial statements and notes are representations of the Company’s management, which is responsible for their integrity and objectivity. These accounting policies conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the financial statements.
Stock-Based Compensation
As of June 30, 2006, the Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (revised 2004), “Share-Based Payment” (FAS) No. 123R, that addresses the accounting for share-based payment transactions in which an enterprise receives employee services in exchange for either equity instruments of the enterprise or liabilities that are based on the fair value of the enterprise’s equity instruments or that may be settled by the issuance of such equity instruments. The statement eliminates the ability to account for share-based compensation transactions, as we formerly did, using the intrinsic value method as prescribed by Accounting Principles Board, or APB, Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to
WARP 9, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - UNAUDITED
DECEMBER 31, 2007
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Stock-Based Compensation (continued)
Employees,” and generally requires that such transactions be accounted for using a fair-value-based method and recognized as expenses in our statement of income. The adoption of (FAS) No. 123R by the Company had no material impact on the statement of income.
The Company adopted FAS 123R using the modified prospective method which requires the application of the accounting standard as of June 30, 2006. Our financial statements as of and for the six months ended December 31, 2007 reflect the impact of adopting FAS 123R. In accordance with the modified prospective method, the financial statements for prior periods have not been restated to reflect, and do not include, the impact of FAS 123R.
Stock-based compensation expense recognized during the period is based on the value of the portion of stock-based payment awards that is ultimately expected to vest. Stock-based compensation expense recognized in the consolidated statement of operations during the six months ended December 31, 2007, included compensation expense for the stock-based payment awards granted prior to, but not yet vested, as of December 31, 2007 based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the pro forma provisions of FAS 148, and compensation expense for the stock-based payment awards granted subsequent to December 31, 2007, based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with FAS 123R. As stock-based compensation expense recognized in the statement of income for the six months ended December 31, 2007 is based on awards ultimately expected to vest, it has been reduced for estimated forfeitures, FAS 123R requires forfeitures to be estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. In the pro forma information required under FAS 148 for the periods prior to the year ended June 30, 2007, we accounted for forfeitures as they occurred. The stock-based compensation expense recognized in the consolidated statement of operations during the six months ended December 31, 2007 is $12,647.
3. CAPITAL STOCK
During the six months ended December 31, 2007, the Company issued 28,608,765 shares of common stock at prices ranging from of $0.0089 per share to $0.0110 per share for the conversion of the debenture with a value of $290,000.
4. CONVERTIBLE DEBENTURES
On December 28, 2005, we consummated a securities purchase agreement with Cornell Capital Partners L.P. providing for the sale by us to Cornell of our 10% secured convertible debentures in the aggregate principal amount of $1,200,000 of which the first installment of $400,000 was advanced immediately. The net amount of the first installment received by the Company was $295,500 after paying total fees of $92,500, which included legal, structuring, due diligence, commitment fees, and prior liability of $12,000. An interest expense of $100,000, representing the
WARP 9, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - UNAUDITED
DECEMBER 31, 2007
4. CONVERTIBLE DEBENTURES (continued)
value of the conversion feature in accordance to EITF 00-27 was recorded for the first installment. Under EITF 00-27, the Company records a beneficial conversion cost associated with the convertibility feature of the security that equals the value of any discount to market available at the time of conversion. This beneficial conversion cost is recorded at the time the convertible security is first issued and is amortized over the stated terms.
Holders of the debentures may convert at any time amounts outstanding under the debentures into shares of our common stock at a conversion price per share equal to the lesser of (i) $0.15 or (ii) 80% of the lowest volume weighted average price of our common stock during the five trading days immediately preceding the conversion date as quoted by Bloomberg, LP. Cornell has agreed not to short any of the shares of Common Stock. EITF 00-19 is applicable to debentures issued by the Company in instances where the number of shares into which a debenture can be converted is not fixed. For example, when a debenture converts at a discount to market based on the stock price on the date of conversion. In such instances, EITF 00-19 requires that the embedded conversion option of the convertible debentures be bifurcated from the host contract and recorded at their fair value. In accounting for derivatives under EITF 00-19, the Company records a liability representing the estimated present value of the conversion feature considering the historic volatility of the Company’s stock, and a discount representing the imputed interest associated with the beneficial conversion feature. The discount is then amortized over the life of the debentures and the derivative liability is adjusted periodically according to stock price fluctuations. At the time of conversion, any remaining derivative liability is charged to additional paid-in capital. For purpose of determining derivative liability, the Company uses Black Scholes modeling for computing historic volatility.
We have the right to redeem a portion or all amounts outstanding under the debenture prior to the maturity date at a 20% redemption premium provided that the closing bid price of our common stock is less than $0.15. In addition, in the event of redemption, we are required to issue to Cornell 50,000 shares of common stock for each $100,000 redeemed.
We also issued to Cornell five-year warrants to purchase 1,500,000, 4,000,000 and 4,000,000 shares of Common Stock at $0.08, $0.10 and $0.12 per share, respectively.
The second installment of $350,000 ($295,000 net of fees) was advanced on January 27, 2006. An interest expense of $87,500 was incurred, representing the value of the conversion feature in accordance to EITF 00-27.
The last installment of $450,000 ($395,000 net of fees) was advanced on May 9, 2006, after the registration statement was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission. An interest expense of $112,500, representing the value of the conversion feature in accordance to EITF 00-27, was incurred at the receipt of this first installment.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - UNAUDITED
DECEMBER 31, 2007
4. CONVERTIBLE DEBENTURES (continued)
The debentures mature on the third anniversary of the date of issuance, and the Company is not required to make any payments until the maturity dates. Interest is accrued at 10% per annum on the principal balance outstanding. At December 31, 2007, the outstanding balance of the debentures were $605,000 and the interest accrued was $176,739.
5. INCOME TAXES
The Company and its subsidiary files income tax returns in the U.S. Federal jurisdiction, and the state of California. With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal, state and local, or non-U.S. income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2003.
The Company adopted the provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, on July 1, 2007. Deferred income taxes have been provided by temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for tax purposes. To the extent allowed by GAAP, we provide valuation allowances against the deferred tax assets for amounts when the realization is uncertain.
Included in the balance at December 31, 2007, are no tax positions for which the ultimate deductibility is highly certain but for which there is uncertainty about the timing of such deductibility. Because of the impact of deferred tax accounting, other than interest and penalties, the disallowance of the shorter deductibility period would not affect the annual effective tax rate but would accelerate the payment of cash to the taxing authority to an earlier period.
The Company’s policy is to recognize interest accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits in interest expense and penalties in operating expenses.
6. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
During the month of January 2008, the Company issued 11,842,105 shares of common stock for the conversion of the debenture with a fair value of $45,000.

Current Overview
Warp 9 is a provider of e-commerce software platforms and services for the catalog and retail industry. Our suite of software platforms are designed to help multi-channel retailers maximize the Internet channel by applying our technologies for online catalogs, e-mail marketing campaigns, and interactive visual merchandising. Offered as an outsourced and fully managed Software-as-a-Service ("SaaS") model, our products allow customers to focus on their core business, rather than technical implementations and software and hardware architecture, design, and maintenance. We also offer professional services to our clients which include online catalog design, merchandizing and optimization, order management, e-mail marketing campaign development, integration to third party payment processing and fulfillment systems, analytics, custom reporting and strategic consultation.
Our products and services allow our clients to lower costs and focus on promoting and marketing their brand, product line and website while leveraging the investments we have made in technology and infrastructure to operate a dynamic online Internet presence.
We charge our customers a monthly fee for using our e-commerce software based on a Software-as-a-Service model. These fees include fixed monthly charges, and variable fees based on the sales volume of our clients’ e-commerce websites. Unlike traditional software companies that sell software on a perpetual license where quarterly and annual revenues are quite difficult to predict, our SaaS model spreads the collection of contract revenue over several quarters or years and makes our revenues more predictable for a longer period of time.
While the Warp 9 Internet Commerce System (ICS) is our flagship and highest revenue product, we have been developing and deploying new products based a proprietary virtual publishing technology that we have developed. These new products will allow for the creation of interactive web versions of paper catalogs and magazines where users can flip through pages with a mouse
and click on products or advertisements. These magazines or catalogs will have built-in integration for e-commerce transactions through our ICS product and other transaction based activities. Accordingly, when shoppers click on a product, they are taken to the e-commerce product page where they can add that product to their shopping cart for purchasing. Clients utilizing this technology have discovered when exposing consumers to the virtual catalogs, a higher average order size and significant increase in rate of conversion result. We have been selling this solution on a limited basis as a professional service while we refine the product and technology. We believe there are many markets for our virtual catalog and magazine technology and we intend to test market these new products in the near future.
On October 23, 2007, we licensed our patent-pending mobile technology and certain trademarks on a non-exclusive basis to Zingerang Software. Under the terms of the agreement, Warp 9 will retain ownership of the technology and trademarks, as well as any improvements and derivatives created by Zingerang Software. Warp 9 is entitled to receive royalties based on revenues from sales if any, generated by Zingerang Software. This agreement allows us to enhance and augment our technology and intellectual property portfolio without using direct resources, and still allows us to seek other licensing options in the future.

The overall decrease in revenue was primarily the result of the elimination of the pass-through Internet marketing expense as an item of revenue and, to a lesser degree, an increase in recurring revenue and a decrease in professional services revenue. For the six-month period ended December 31, 2007 total revenue decreased 6% or ($82,763) to $1,253,667 from $1,336,430 in the same period of the prior year. The overall decrease in revenue was primarily the result of the elimination of the pass-through Internet marketing expense as an item of revenue.
COST OF REVENUE
The cost of revenue for the three-month period ended December 31, 2007 decreased ($173,225) to $37,207 as compared to $210,432 for the three-month period ended December 31, 2006 representing a decrease of 82%, and for the six-month period ended December 31, 2007 cost of revenue decreased 75% by ($229,740) to $76,431 from $306,171 in the same period of the prior year.

Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses decreased by ($116,046) during the three months ended December 31, 2007 to $403,484 as compared to $519,530 for the three-month period ended December 31, 2006.

Research and development expenses increased to $16,585 during the three months ended December 31, 2007 compared to $0 for the same period ending December 31, 2006.
