NOTES TO UNAUDITED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 30, 2007
NOTE 1. - BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Community Financial Corporation ("Community" or the "Company") and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Community Bank (the "Bank"). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three months ended June 30, 2007, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending March 31, 2008.
Note 2. Stock Split
On July 26, 2006, the Company declared a 2 for 1 stock split in the form of a 100% stock dividend payable on August 23, 2006. Basic and diluted earnings per share have been retroactively adjusted for this split for all periods presented.
Note 3. - Stock-Based Compensation Plan
In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123R, "Share-Based Payment" (SFAS 123R). SFAS 123R requires companies to recognize the cost of employee services received in exchange for awards of equity instruments, such as stock options and restricted stock, based on the fair value of those awards at the date of grant and eliminates the choice to account for employee stock options under Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" (APB 25). The Company adopted SFAS 123R effective April 1, 2006 using the modified prospective method and as such, results for prior periods have not been restated. Prior to April 1, 2006, no compensation expense was recognized for stock option grants as all such grants had an exercise price not less than fair market value on the date of grant.
There were no stock options granted during the three month periods ended June 30, 2007 and 2006. No compensation expense was recognized for the three month periods ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 as no options were granted or vested.

Information in the above table has been restated to reflect the 2 for 1 split in the form of a 100% stock dividend described in Note 2.
There were no options exercised during the three month ended June 30, 2007.
NOTE 4. - EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic earnings per share is based on net income divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share shows the dilutive effect of additional common shares issuable under stock option plans. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net earnings by the weighted average number of common shares and common share equivalents outstanding. Basic and diluted earnings per share are computed in the following table.

7NEXT PAGEDuring the quarter ended June 30, 2007, no stock options were excluded from the calculation of earnings per share because they would have been anti-dilutive. During the quarter ended June 30, 2006, stock options representing 47,000 shares were not included in the calculation of earnings per share because they would have been anti-dilutive.
Information in the above table has been restated to reflect the 2 for 1 stock split in the form of a 100% stock dividend described in Note 2.
NOTE 5. - STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY
The following table presents the Bank's regulatory capital levels at June 30, 2007:
| Amount Required
| Percent Required
| Actual Amount
| Actual Percent
| Excess Amount
|
Tangible Capital | $ 7,214,000 | 1.50% | $36,972,000 | 7.69% | $29,758,000 |

Risk-based Capital | 31,227,000 | 8.00 | 40,884,000 | 10.47 | 9,657,000 |
The Company's primary source of funds for the payment of dividends to its stockholders are dividends from the Bank. Capital distributions by OTS-regulated savings banks, such as the Bank, are limited by regulation ("Capital Distribution Regulation"). Capital distributions are defined to include, in part, dividends, stock repurchases and cash-out mergers. The Capital Distribution Regulation permits a savings bank to make capital distributions during a calendar year equal to net income for the current year plus the previous two years net income, less capital distributions paid over the same period. Any distributions in excess of that amount requires prior OTS approval. The Capital Distribution Regulation requires that savings banks in holding company structures provide the applicable OTS Regional Director with a 30-day advance written notice of all proposed capital distributions whether or not advance approval is required by the regulation. The OTS may object to capital distributions if the bank is not meeting its regulatory capital requirements, the distribution raises safety and soundness concerns or is otherwise in violation of law.
NOTE 6. - SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION - STATEMENT OF CASH FLOWS
Total interest paid for the three months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 was $4,482,058 and $2,998,542 respectively. Total income taxes paid for the three months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 was $97,000 and $450,514.
NOTE 7. - COMPREHENSIVE INCOME
Comprehensive income is defined as "the change in equity (net assets) of a business enterprise during a period from transactions and other events and circumstances from non-owner sources. It includes all changes in equity during a period except those resulting from investments by owners and distributions to owners." Comprehensive income for the Company includes net income and unrealized gains and losses on securities available for sale. The following tables set forth the components of comprehensive income for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2007 and 2006:

At June 30, 2007, 48 debt securities had unrealized losses with aggregate depreciation of 1.75% from the Corporation's amortized cost basis. These unrealized losses related principally to government agencies. In analyzing an issuer's financial condition, management considers whether the securities are issued by the federal government or its agencies and whether downgrades by bond debt rating agencies have occurred. As management has the ability and intent to hold these debt securities until maturity or for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value, no declines are deemed to be other than temporary.
At June 30, 2007, four marketable equity securities had unrealized losses with aggregate depreciation of 10.75% from the Corporation's cost basis. One of the preferred stock issues is the Freddie Mac preferred series L with a par value of $50 per share. The dividend rate of this issue resets every five years based on the five year treasury rate. The next dividend reset date for this security is December 31, 2009. Management anticipates that the fair value of this issue will approximate the security's par value on the next dividend reset date. The securities have an investment grade rating of AA or better. These unrealized losses relate primarily to government agencies. The movement in the market value of the securities is closely related to changes in interest rates. In analyzing the issuer's financial condition, management considers whether the securities are issued by the federal government or its agencies and whether downgrades by bond debt rating agencies have
10NEXT PAGEoccurred. As management has the ability and intent to hold these equity securities for the foreseeable future, no declines are deemed to be other than temporary.
Management evaluates securities for other than temporary impairment at least on a quarterly basis, and more frequently when economic or market concerns warrant such evaluation. Consideration is given to (1) the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, (2) the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, and (3) the intent and ability of the Corporation to retain its investment in the issuer for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value.
11NEXT PAGEItem 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The following information is intended to provide investors a better understanding of the financial position and the operating results of Community Financial Corporation and its subsidiary, Community Bank. The following is primarily from management's perspective and may not contain all information that is of importance to the reader. Accordingly, the information should be considered in the context of the consolidated financial statements and other related information contained herein.
Net income was up slightly for the three months ended June 30, 2007. Net income totaled $1,029,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2007 compared to $1,023,000 for the June 30, 2006 quarter. Net income was essentially unchanged due to an increase in net interest income and noninterest income offset by increases in noninterest expenses and the provision for loan losses. The increases in noninterest expenses resulted primarily from higher compensation and benefits associated with additional loan personnel and the additional personnel needed to staff the branch opened in April, 2006. The increase in the loan loss provision was attributable primarily to the increase in commercial real estate lending in our loan portfolio. The increase in noninterest income during the current periods is related primarily to increased activity in deposit transaction accounts and mortgage loan fees. Total noninterest income increased $97,000, or 13.3%, to $829,037 for the three months ended June 30, 2007, compared to the same period during the prior year.
Net interest income for the quarter ended June 30, 2007 increased $183,000, or 5.0%, to $3.8 million compared to the same period during the prior year. Net interest income, which is the difference between the interest income we earn on our interest-earning assets, such as loans and investment securities, and the interest expense we pay on interest-bearing liabilities, primarily deposits and borrowings, was impacted by both the change in our volume of interest earning assets and the interest rate spread between interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. The primary factor contributing to the increase in net interest income for the quarter ended June 30, 2007 was the growth in interest-earning assets, primarily loans, which was offset by a compressing interest rate spread. The decrease in the interest rate spread is due primarily to the current market relationship between short-term and long-term interest rates. We also did not purchase any investment securities during the three months ended June 30, 2007 and anticipate limited security purchases during the remainder of the current fiscal year. Management will continue to monitor asset growth to manage the level of regulatory capital and funds acquisition. We continue to monitor the impact interest rate changes may have on both the growth in interest-earning assets and our interest rate spread. The Bank has approximately $274.9 million in adjustable rate loans or 67% of total loans which reprice in five years or less, many of which are subject to annual and lifetime interest rate limits. The pace and extent of future interest rate changes will impact the Company's interest rate spread as well as limitations on interest rate adjustments on certain adjustable rate loans.
Funding for the growth in interest-earning assets combined with a rising interest rate environment has impacted the composition of our interest-bearing liabilities. The primary source of funding for increases in assets during the June 30, 2007 quarter was borrowings due both to the seasonal nature of checking account balances and more competitive time deposit rates. Management plans to remain competitive in our deposit pricing and anticipates that deposit growth will be the primary source of funding for asset growth during the remainder of the current fiscal year. As interest rates have increased,
12NEXT PAGEdeposit balances in money market accounts have decreased as customers have transferred funds to time deposits or equities markets. Management is cognizant of the potential for additional compression in the Bank's margin related to the need to acquire funds and the pace of interest rate changes. Management will continue to monitor the level of deposits and borrowings in relation to the current interest rate environment.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
General
The Company's financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). The financial information contained within our statements is, to a significant extent, financial information that is based on measures of the financial effects of transactions and events that have already occurred. A variety of factors could affect the ultimate value that is obtained either when earning income, recognizing an expense, recovering an asset or relieving a liability. In addition, GAAP itself may change from one previously acceptable method to another method. Although the economics of our transactions would be the same, the timing of events that would impact our transactions could change.
Allowance for Loan Losses
The allowance for loan losses is an estimate of the losses that may be sustained in our loan portfolio. The allowance is based on two basic principles of accounting: (i) Statement of Financial Accounting Standard ("SFAS") No.5, Accounting for Contingencies, which requires that losses be accrued when they are probable of occurring and estimable and (ii) SFAS No. 114, Accounting by Creditors for Impairment of a Loan, which requires that losses be accrued based on the differences between the value of collateral, present value of future cash flows or values that are observable in the secondary market and the loan balance.
The allowance for loan losses is maintained at a level considered by management to be adequate to absorb future loan losses currently inherent in the loan portfolio. Management's assessment of the adequacy of the allowance is based upon type and volume of the loan portfolio, past loan loss experience, existing and anticipated economic conditions, and other factors which deserve current recognition in estimating future loan losses. This evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires estimates that are susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available. Additions to the allowance are charged to operations. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance. Loans are charged-off partially or wholly at the time management determines collectibility is not probable. Management's assessment of the adequacy of the allowance is subject to evaluation and adjustment by the Company's regulators.
The allowance consists of specific, general and unallocated components. The specific component relates to loans that are classified as doubtful, substandard or special mention. For such loans that are also classified as impaired, an allowance is established when the discounted cash flows (or collateral value or observable market price) of the impaired loan is lower than the carrying value of that loan. The general component covers non-classified loans and is based on historical loss experience adjusted for qualitative factors. An unallocated component is maintained to cover uncertainties that could affect management's estimate of probable losses. The unallocated component of the allowance reflects the margin of imprecision inherent in the underlying assumptions used in the methodologies for estimating specific and general losses in the portfolio.
13NEXT PAGEA loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Corporation will be unable to collect the scheduled payments of principal or interest when due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Factors considered by management in determining impairment include payment status, collateral value, and the probability of collecting scheduled principal and interest payments when due. Loans that experience insignificant payment delays and payment shortfalls generally are not classified as impaired. Management determines the significance of payment delays and payment shortfalls on a case-by-case basis, taking into consideration all of the circumstances surrounding the loan and the borrower, including the length of the delay, the reasons for the delay, the borrower's prior payment record, and the amount of the shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed. Impairment is measured on a loan-by-loan basis for commercial and construction loans by e ither the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan's effective interest rate, the loan's obtainable market price, or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent.
Large groups of smaller balance homogeneous loans are collectively evaluated for impairment. Accordingly, the Corporation does not separately identify individual consumer and residential loans for impairment disclosures, unless such loans are the subject of a restructuring agreement.
FINANCIAL CONDITION
The Company's total assets increased $16.4 million to $479.5 million at June 30, 2007 from $463.1 million at March 31, 2007 due to an increase in loans receivable of $11.3 million and cash of $4.8 million. This increase was funded with increases in both borrowings and deposits which increased $13.0 million and $3.3 million, respectively at June 30, 2007, from March 31, 2007. Deposits increased due primarily to customers' preferences for high interest rate time deposits and savings accounts compared to money market accounts. The increase in deposits was due to an increase in time deposits of $3.7 million, savings of $1.2 million, and partially offset by a decrease in money market accounts of $1.5 million. Stockholders' equity increased $0.3 million to $38.9 million at June 30, 2007, from $38.6 million at March 31, 2007, due to earnings for the three month period ended June 30, 2007, a decrease in the net unrealized gain on securities available for sale and the cash dividend payment.
At June 30, 2007, non-performing assets totaled approximately $1.3 million or .28% of assets compared to $1.5 million or .32% of assets at March 31, 2007.Non-performing assets at June 30, 2007 were comprised primarily of loans 90 days or more delinquent which totaled $1.2 million. At June 30, 2007, our allowance for loan losses to non-performing loans was 237.4% and to total loans was .76%. Based on current market values of the properties securing these loans, management anticipates no significant losses in excess of the allowance for losses previously recorded.
As of June 30, 2007, there were also $2.6 million in loans with respect to which known information about the possible credit problems of the borrowers or the cash flows of the security properties have caused management to have doubts as to the ability of the borrowers to comply with present loan repayment terms and which may result in the future inclusion of such items in the non-performing loan categories. These loans are comprised primarily of residential real estate loans. No individual loan in this category has a balance that exceeds $204,000.
14NEXT PAGELIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Our principal sources of funds are customer deposits, advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta, amortization and prepayment of loans and funds provided from operations. Management maintains investments in liquid assets based upon its assessment of (i) our need for funds, (ii) expected deposit flows, (iii) the yields available on short-term liquid assets, (iv) the liquidity of our loan portfolio and (v) the objectives of our asset/liability management program. Management believes that the Bank will continue to have adequate liquidity for the foreseeable future. Cash flow projections are regularly reviewed and updated to assure that adequate liquidity is provided. As of June 30, 2007, the Bank's liquidity ratio (liquid assets as a percentage of net withdrawable savings and current borrowings) was 9.6%.
At June 30, 2007, we had commitments to purchase or originate $17.9 million of loans. Certificates of deposit scheduled to mature in one year or less at June 30, 2007, totaled $192.5 million. Based on our historical experience, management believes that a significant portion of such deposits will remain with us. Management further believes that loan repayments and other sources of funds will be adequate to meet our foreseeable short-term and long-term liquidity needs. At June 30, 2007, we did not have brokered or internet time deposits.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Three Months Ended June 30, 2007 and 2006
General. Net income for the three months ended June 30, 2007 was $1,029,000 compared to $1,023,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2006. Net interest income increased $183,000, and non-interest income increased $97,000 during the three months ended June 30, 2007 compared to the same period in 2006. Return on equity for the three months ended June 30, 2007 was 10.49% compared to 11.46% for the three month period ended June 30, 2006. Return on assets on an annualized basis was 0.87% for quarter ended June 30, 2007 compared to 0.95% for the same period in the previous fiscal year.
Interest Income. Total interest income increased by $1.1 million to $8.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007, from $6.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006, due to both higher average loan balances, and higher yields for the three months ended June 30, 2007 as compared to the period ended June 30, 2006. The increase in yields was due to higher market interest rates generally. The average yield earned on interest-earning assets was 7.11% for the three months ended June 30, 2007 compared to 6.70% for the three months ended June 30, 2006.
Interest Expense. Total interest expense increased by $1.0 million to $4.2 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2007, from $3.3 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2006. Interest on deposits increased by $790,000 to $2.9 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2007 from $2.2 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2006 due to an increase in the average rate paid and higher average deposit balances. Interest expense on borrowed money increased by $175,000 to $1.3 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2007, from $1.1 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2006, due to an increase in the average rate paid and average balance of borrowings. The average balance for borrowings increased from $89.8 million for the June 30, 2006 quarter to $99.0 million for the June 30, 2007 period while the rate paid on borrowings increased from 4.97% to 5.22% for the same periods. The average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities was 3.96% during the three months ended June 30, 2007 compared to 3.34% for the three months ended June 30, 2006.
15NEXT PAGEProvision for Loan Losses. The provision for loan losses increased by $94,000 to $135,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2007, from $41,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2006. The increase in the provision for loan losses for the quarter ended June 30, 2007 was due to the inherent risk associated with the increase in our loan portfolio. We provide valuation allowances for anticipated losses on loans and real estate when management determines that a significant decline in the value of the collateral or cash flows has occurred, as a result of which the value of the collateral or cash flows is less than the amount of the unpaid principal of the related loan plus estimated costs of acquisition and sale. In addition, we also provide allowances based on the dollar amount and type of collateral securing our loans in order to protect against unanticipated losses. At June 30, 2007, management believes its allowance for loan losses was adequate to absorb any probable losses inherent in the Company's loan portfolio. Although management believes that it uses the best information available to make such determinations, future adjustments to allowances may be necessary, and net income could be significantly affected, if circumstances differ substantially from the assumptions used in making the initial determinations.
Noninterest Income. Noninterest income increased by $97,000 to $829,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2007, from $732,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2006 due primarily to an increase in service charges and fees on transaction accounts and mortgage loan fees. The Bank has established relationships with other institutions where the Bank receives fees in return for completed customer mortgage loan applications for the institution's approval and funding. We anticipate this relationship will continue to be a source of fee and service charge income for the Bank.
Noninterest Expense. Noninterest expense increased by $173,000 to $3.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007 compared to the same period last year. The increase is attributable to compensation and benefits, which increased by $117,000 to $1.8 million compared to the same period last year.The increase in compensation and benefits resulted from additional loan personnel.
Taxes. Taxes increased by $7,000 to $505,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2007, from $498,000 for the three months ended June 30 2006. The effective tax rate increased to 32.9% for the June 30, 2007 quarter from 32.7% for the June 30, 2006 quarter due to differences in components of taxable income.
OFF BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
There has not been a significant change in our off balance sheet arrangements from the information reported in our annual 10-K for the period ended March 31, 2007.
CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS
There has not been a significant change in our contractual obligations from the information reported in our annual 10-K for the period ended March 31, 2007.
16NEXT PAGERECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, "Fair Value Measurements" (SFAS 157). SFAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS 157 does not require any new fair value measurements but may change current practice for some entities. This Statement is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and interim periods within those years. The Company does not expect the implementation of SFAS 157 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
In February 2007, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 159, "The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities" (SFAS 159).This statement permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. The objective of this Statement is to improve financial reporting by providing entities with the opportunity to mitigate volatility in reported earnings caused by measuring related assets and liabilities differently without having to apply complex hedge accounting provisions. The fair value option established by this Statement permits all entities to choose to measure eligible items at fair value at specified election dates. A business entity shall report unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected in earnings at each subsequent reporting date. The fair value option may be applied instrument by instrument and is irrevocable. SFAS 159 is effective as of the beginning of an entity's first fiscal year that begins after November 15, 2007. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact SFAS 159 may have on its consolidated financial statements.
Disclosure Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This document, including information incorporated by reference, contains, and future filings by Community Financial Corporation on Form 10-K, Form 10-Q and Form 8-K and future oral and written statements by Community Financial Corporation and its management may contain, forward-looking statements about Community Financial Corporation which we believe are within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements include, without limitation, statements with respect to anticipated future operating and financial performance, including revenue creation, lending origination, operating efficiencies, loan sales, charge-offs and loan loss provisions, growth opportunities, interest rates, acquisition and divestiture opportunities, and synergies, efficiencies, cost savings and funding advantages. These forward-looking statements are based on currently available competitive, financial and economic data and management's views and assumptions regarding future events. These forward-looking statements are inherently uncertain, and investors must recognize that actual results may differ from those expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements. Accordingly, Community Financial Corporation cautions readers not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements.
Many of these forward-looking statements appear in this document in Management's Discussion and Analysis. Words such as may, could, should, would, believe, anticipate, estimate, expect, intend, plan and similar expressions are intended to identify these forward-looking statements. The important factors discussed below, as well as other factors discussed elsewhere in this document and factors identified in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission and those presented elsewhere by our management from time
17NEXT PAGEto time, could cause actual results to differ materially from those indicated by the forward-looking statements made in this document. Among the factors that could cause our actual results to differ from these forward-looking statements are:
- the strength of the United States economy in general and the strength of the local economies in which we conduct our operations; general economic conditions, either nationally or regionally, may be less favorable than expected, resulting in, among other things, a deterioration in the credit quality of our loans and other assets;
- the effects of, and changes in, trade, monetary and fiscal policies and laws, including interest rate policies of the Federal Reserve Board;
- financial market, monetary and interest rate fluctuations, particularly the relative relationship of short-term interest rates to long-term interest rates;
- the timely development of and acceptance of new products and services of Community Financial Corporation and Community Bank, and the perceived overall value of these products and services by users, including the features, pricing and quality compared to competitors' products and services;
- the impact of changes in financial services laws and regulations (including laws concerning taxes, accounting standards, banking, securities and insurance); legislative or regulatory changes may adversely affect the business in which we are engaged;
- the impact of technological changes;
- changes in consumer spending and saving habits; and
- our success at managing the risks involved in the foregoing.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
There have been no material changes in market risk since March 31, 2007 year end. Market risk is discussed as part of management's discussion and analysis under asset/liability management in the Company's annual report for March 31, 2007.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
An evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Act")) as of June 30, 2007, was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of the Company's Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and several other members of the Company's senior management. The Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures in effect were effective in ensuring that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or submits under the Act is: (i) accumulated and communicated to the Company's management (including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer) in a timely manner and (ii) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms. In addition, there have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Act) that occurred during the quarter
18NEXT PAGEended June 30, 2007, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
The Company does not expect that its disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting will prevent all error and all fraud. A control procedure, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control procedure are met. Because of the inherent limitations in all control procedures, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls may be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by override of the control. The design of any control procedure also 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 its stated goals under all potential future conditions; over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control procedure, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.
Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 requires that companies evaluate and annually report on their systems of internal control over financial reporting. In addition, our independent accountants must report on management's evaluation. We are in the process of evaluating, documenting and testing our system of internal control over financial reporting to provide the basis for our report that will, for the first time, be a required part of our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2008. Due to the ongoing evaluation and testing of our internal controls, there can be no assurance that if any control deficiencies are identified they will be remediated before the end of the 2008 fiscal year, or that there will not be significant deficiencies or material weaknesses that would be required to be reported.
