Item 9A. Controls and Procedures.
Management’s Evaluation of Disclosures Controls and Procedures
We carried out an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial and Accounting Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act")) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Principal Accounting Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2021.
Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act. Our internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on our financial statements.
Management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2021. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in 2013.
Based upon our evaluation of internal controls, our CEO and PFAO determined that (i) we have a material weakness over our entity level control environment as of March 31, 2021 and (ii) our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of March 31, 2021. Our preventive and review controls failed to detect errors related to the valuation of inventory and cutoff of service revenue.
Remediation Activities
Management has been actively engaged in remediating the above described material weaknesses. The following remedial actions have been taken:
| · | We have made changes in our policy regarding how contract revenue and related costs are booked. Under the revised policy, such revenue and costs are now booked in the same month as the related work is performed. |
| · | We have changed our policy regarding reserves for slow moving inventory. Under our revised, policy we now book additional inventory reserves for all inventory older than 18 months, even if management believes such inventory is still salable. |
The Company will design and implement additional procedures in fiscal 2022 and 2023 in order to assure that audit/accounting personnel are more involved with the Company’s inventory activities and service revenue to monitor and earlier identify accounting issues that may be raised by the Company’s ongoing activities.
The process of implementing an effective financial reporting system is a continuous effort that requires us to anticipate and react to changes in our business and the economic and regulatory environments and to expend significant resources to maintain a financial reporting system that is adequate to satisfy our reporting obligations. As we continue to evaluate and take actions to improve our internal control over financial reporting, we may take additional actions to address control deficiencies or modify certain of the remediation measures described above.
While progress has been made to enhance our internal control over financial reporting, we are still in the process of implementing these processes, procedures and controls. Additional time is required to complete implementation and to assess and ensure the sustainability of these procedures. We believe the above actions will be effective in remediating the material weaknesses described above and we will continue to devote significant time and attention to these remedial efforts. However, the material weaknesses cannot be considered remediated until the applicable remedial controls operate for a sufficient period of time and management has concluded that these controls are operating effectively.

This Annual Report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management’s report in this Annual Report.
Changes In Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Other than the applicable remediation efforts described above, there were no significant changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the twelve months ended March 31, 2021 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
