(A Development Stage Company)
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS-UNAUDITED
MARCH 31, 2010
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 three months
ended March 31, 2010 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may
be expected for the year ending December 31, 2010. For further information
refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto
included in the Company's Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009.
GOING CONCERN
The accompanying consolidated 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 consolidated financial
statements do not reflect any adjustments that might result if the Company
is unable to continue as a going concern. The Company does not generate
significant revenue, and has negative cash flows from operations, which
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, an additional cash infusion. The Company has obtained funds
from its shareholders since its inception through March 31, 2010. It is
Management's plan to generate additional working capital from investors,
and then continue to pursue its business plan and purposes.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
This summary of significant accounting policies of MachineTalker, Inc. is
presented to assist in understanding the Company's consolidated financial
statements. The consolidated 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 consolidated financial
statements.
DEVELOPMENT STAGE ACTIVITIES AND OPERATIONS
The Company has been in its initial stages of formation and for the three
months ended March 31, 2010, had insignificant revenues. A development
stage activity is one in which all efforts are devoted substantially to
establishing a new business and even if planned principal operations have
commenced, revenues are insignificant.
PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company
and its subsidiaries Wideband Detection Technologies, Inc. and Micro
Wireless Technologies, Inc. All significant inter-company balances and
transactions have been eliminated.
CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENT
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original
maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
REVENUE RECOGNITION
We recognize revenue upon delivery, provided that evidence of an
arrangement exists, title, and risk of loss have passed to the customer,
fees are fixed or determinable, and collection of the related receivable is
reasonably assured. We record revenue net of estimated product returns,
which is based upon our return policy, sales agreements, management
estimates of potential future product returns related to current period
revenue, current economic trends, changes in customer composition and
historical experience. We accrue for warranty costs, sales returns, and
other allowances based on our experience, which tells us we have less than
$25,000 per year in warranty returns and allowances. Generally, we extend
credit to our customers and do not require collateral. We perform ongoing
credit evaluations of our customers and historic credit losses have been
within our expectations. We do not ship a product until we have either a
purchase agreement or rental agreement signed by the customer with a
payment arrangement. This is a critical policy, because we want our
accounting to show only sales which are "final" with a payment arrangement.
We do not make consignment sales, nor inventory sales subject to a "buy
back" or return arrangement from customers. Accordingly, original equipment
manufacturers do not presently have a right to return unsold products to
us.
We also grant exclusive licenses for the use of the technology required to
operate our products. Software license revenue is recognized over the
contract period, for those contracts that either do not contain a service
component or that have services which are not essential to the
functionality of any other element of the contract.
LOSS PER SHARE CALCULATIONS
Loss per Share dictates the calculation of basic earnings per share and
diluted earnings per share. Basic earnings per share are computed by
dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted-average
number of common shares available. Diluted earnings per share is computed
similar to basic earnings per share except that the denominator is
increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have
been outstanding if the potential common shares had been issued and if the
additional common shares were dilutive. No shares for employee options or
warrants were used in the calculation of the loss per share as they were
all anti-dilutive. The Company's diluted loss per share is the same as the
basic loss per share for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 as
the inclusion of any potential shares would have had an anti-dilutive
effect due to the Company generating a loss.
STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
Share based payments applies to transactions in which an entity exchanges
its equity instruments for goods or services, and also applies to
liabilities an entity may incur for goods or services that are to follow a
fair value of those equity instruments. We will be required to follow a
fair value approach using an option-pricing model, such as the
Black-Scholes option valuation model, at the date of a stock option grant.
The deferred compensation calculated under the fair value method would then
be amortized over the respective vesting period of the stock option. The
adoption of share based compensation has no material impact on our results
of operations.
3. CAPITAL STOCK AND WARRANTS
During the three months ended March 31, 2010, the Company issued 80,000,000
shares of common stock at a price of $0.0025 for $200,000 in cash. During
the three months ended March 31, 2009, the Company issued no shares of
common stock.

3. CAPITAL STOCK AND WARRANTS (Continued)
WARRANTS
During the three months ended March 31, 2010, the Company issued no
warrants. At March 31, 2010, the Company had a total of 866,400 warrants to
purchase 866,400 shares of common stock outstanding.
4. INCOME TAXES
The Company 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 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 sheet at March 31, 2010, are no tax positions for
which the ultimate deductibility is highly certain but for which there is
uncertainty about the timing of such deductibility.
The Company's policy is to recognize interest accrued related to
unrecognized tax benefits in interest expense and penalties in operating
expenses.
5. RETURN ON INVESTMENT
During the three months ended March 31, 2009, the Company received $1,347
on its initial investment in Listen4U, LLC.
6. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTION
During the year ended December 31, 2009, an investor loaned the Company
$37,000 for operating expenses. The note was due and payable upon demand,
and bore interest at 6% per annum. The note, including interest of $1,601
was paid off during the three months ended March 31, 2010.
During the year ended December 31, 2009, the Company's President loaned
$7,000 to the Company for operating expenses. The note bore interest at 6%
per annum, and was paid off during the three months ended March 31, 2010.
During the three months ended March 31, 2009, the Company's President
forgave a note payable of $52,342 and contributed cash of $485, both of
which were recorded as contributed capital.
7. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
Management has evaluated subsequent events according to the requirements of
ASC TOPIC 855, and has determined there are no subsequent events to be
reported.

ITEM 2: MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS.
CAUTIONARY STATEMENTS
This Form 10-Q contains financial projections and other
"forward-looking statements," as that term is used in federal securities laws,
about MachineTalker, Inc.'s ("we," "us," or the "Company") financial condition,
results of operations and business. These statements include, among others:
statements concerning the potential for revenues and expenses and other matters
that are not historical facts. These statements may be made expressly in this
Form 10-Q. You can find many of these statements by looking for words such as
"believes," "expects," "anticipates," "estimates," or similar expressions used
in this Form 10-Q. These forward-looking statements are subject to numerous
assumptions, risks and uncertainties that may cause the Company's actual results
to be materially different from any future results expressed or implied by the
Company in those statements. The most important facts that could prevent the
Company from achieving its stated goals include, but are not limited to, the
following:
(a) volatility or decline of the Company's stock price;
(b) potential fluctuation in quarterly results;
(c) failure of the Company to earn revenues or profits;
(d) inadequate capital and barriers to raising the additional capital or
to obtaining the financing needed to implement its business plans;
(e) inadequate capital to continue business;
(f) changes in demand for the Company's products and services;
(g) rapid and significant changes in markets;
(h) litigation with or legal claims and allegations by outside parties;
and
(i) insufficient revenues to cover operating costs.
Because the statements are subject to risks and uncertainties, actual
results may differ materially from those expressed or implied by the
forward-looking statements. The Company cautions you not to place undue reliance
on the statements, which speak only as of the date of this Form 10-Q. The
cautionary statements contained or referred to in this section should be
considered in connection with any subsequent written or oral forward-looking
statements that the Company or persons acting on its behalf may issue.
The Company does not undertake any obligation to review or confirm
analysts' expectations or estimates or to release publicly any revisions to any
forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of
this Form 10-Q or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our
condensed financial statements and notes to those statements. In addition to
historical information, the following discussion and other parts of this
quarterly report contain forward-looking information that involves risks and
uncertainties.
OVERVIEW
In May 2008, we successfully interconnected our Talker(R) product line
to our new "GuardDog" product which uses Ultra-Wide Band ("UWB') technology to
detect any movement or motion in its vicinity. The combination of Talkers(R) and
GuardDog employs UWB radar-like signals to detect movement within an area,
either in the open space or inside of a closed chamber like that of a shipping
container. In addition, this new product can detect changes other than movement,
such as a break or hole being made in the side of a container. This product is
aimed at a unique method of protection for goods in transit or in storage, and
has been proposed as part of a package to several potential customers.
Another recently released product, the CBM6, has been proposed for use
in monitoring the vibration in high speed rotating spindles and slower speed
rotating fans and motors in oil refineries for wireless data acquisition in
support of Condition-Based Maintenance ("CBM"). This product has been packaged
within explosion-proof housings for use in oil refineries and in less costly
polycarbonate enclosures for other harsh environments. The CBM6 has been
-10-
designed to gather data from high speed sources and sensors and process that
data at a remote site prior to sending it by wireless means to a central
computer facility.
We currently do not have full time employees. We generally utilize
consultants who are technical contributors to product development with our Chief
Scientist providing a marketing presence by presenting seminars at trade shows
and by being a contributing member of wireless standards committees. This work
helps to address the wireless process control aspects of our product line. We
have also minimized the use of administration personnel in favor of technical
staff concerned with the application of our products to security and industrial
customers. We are negotiating with several Systems Integrators to utilize our
products in their respective fields of business. The Company does not currently
have a general product liability insurance plan in place, but plans to purchase
a new policy if and when sales of our products are made.
APPLICATION OF CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of
operations are based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make
estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities,
revenues and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent assets and
liabilities. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those
related to impairment of property, plant and equipment, intangible assets,
deferred tax assets and fair value computation using the Black Scholes option
pricing model. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various
other assumptions, such as the trading value of our common stock and estimated
future undiscounted cash flows, that we believe to be reasonable under the
circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about
the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from
other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different
assumptions or conditions; however, we believe that our estimates, including
those for the above-described items, are reasonable.
USE OF ESTIMATES
In accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States, management utilizes estimates and assumptions that affect the
reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent
assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements as well as the
reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual
results could differ from those estimates. These estimates and assumptions
relate to recording net revenue, collectability of accounts receivable, useful
lives and impairment of tangible and intangible assets, accruals, income taxes,
inventory realization, stock-based compensation expense and other factors.
Management believes it has exercised reasonable judgment in deriving these
estimates. Consequently, a change in conditions could affect these estimates.
FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Our cash, cash equivalents, investments, accounts receivable and
accounts payable are stated at cost which approximates fair value due to the
short-term nature of these instruments.
REVENUE RECOGNITION
We recognize revenue in accordance with the Securities and Exchange
Commission ("SEC") Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104, "Revenue Recognition in
Financial Statements" ("SAB 104"). We recognize revenue upon delivery, provided
that evidence of an arrangement exists, title, and risk of loss have passed to
the customer, fees are fixed or determinable, and collection of the related
receivable is reasonably assured. We record revenue net of estimated product
returns, which is based upon our return policy, sales agreements, management
estimates of potential future product returns related to current period revenue,
current economic trends, changes in customer composition and historical
experience. We accrue for warranty costs, sales returns, and other allowances
based on our experience which tells us we have less than $25,000 per year in
warranty returns and allowances. Generally, we extend credit to our customers
and do not require collateral. We perform ongoing credit evaluations of our
customers and historic credit losses have been within our expectations. We do
not ship a product until we have either a purchase agreement or rental agreement
signed by the customer with a payment arrangement. This is a critical policy,
because we want our accounting to show only sales which are "final" with a
payment arrangement. We do not make consignment sales or inventory sales subject
to a "buy back" or return arrangement from customers. Accordingly, OEMs do not
presently have a right to return unsold products to the Company.
-11-
We also grant exclusive licenses for the use of the technology required
to operate our products. We recognize revenue from software licensing
arrangements under SOP 97-2 "Software Revenue Recognition," as amended by
SOP-98-9, Modification of SOP 97-2, "Software Revenue Recognition with Respect
to Certain Transactions." For those contracts that either do not contain a
services component or that have services which are not essential to the
functionality of any other element of the contract, software license revenue is
recognized over the contract period.
PROVISION FOR SALES RETURNS, ALLOWANCES AND BAD DEBTS
We maintain a provision for sales allowances, returns and bad debts.
Sales returns and allowances result from equipment damaged in delivery or
customer dissatisfaction, as provided by agreement. The provision is provided
for by reducing gross revenue by a portion of the amount invoiced during the
relevant period. The amount of the reduction is estimated based on historical
experience.
RESERVE FOR OBSOLETE/EXCESS INVENTORY
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. We regularly
review our inventories and, when required, will record a provision for excess
and obsolete inventory based on factors that may impact the realizable value of
our inventory including, but not limited to, technological changes, market
demand, regulatory requirements and significant changes in our cost structure.
If ultimate usage varies significantly from expected usage, or other factors
arise that are significantly different than those anticipated by management,
inventory write-downs or increases in reserves may be required.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2010 COMPARED TO THE THREE
MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2009
REVENUE
Total revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 were
$0 and $10,000, respectively. The decrease in revenue was the result of deferred
income being fully recognized in the prior periods, and the Company being in its
development stage.
COST OF SALES
There was no cost of sales for the three months ended March 31, 2010
and 2009, respectively. This was a result of recognition of previously deferred
income with no related purchases of materials.
SELLING AND MARKETING EXPENSES
Selling and marketing ("S&M") expenses decreased by $(2,151) to $0 for
the three months ended March 31, 2010 compared to the $2,151 for the three
months ended March 31, 2009. This decrease in S&M expenses was the result of a
decrease in outside service expenses due to a reduction in investor relations.
GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES
General and administrative ("G&A") expenses decreased by $(23,809) to
$47,308 for the three months ended March 31, 2010 compared to $71,117 for the
three months ended March 31, 2009. This decrease in G&A expenses was the result
of a decrease in overall operating expenses, primarily professional fees and
utilities.
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
Research and Development ("R&D") costs increased by $288 to $1,580 for
the three months ended March 31, 2010 compared to $1,292 for the three months
ended March 31, 2009. This increase in R&D costs was the result of an increase
in outside services for securing new patents.

NET LOSS
Net Loss decreased by $21,275 to $(51,522) for the three months ended
March 31, 2010 compared to $(72,797) for the three months ended March 3,1 2009.
This decrease in Net Loss was the result of a decrease in operational costs.
Currently operating costs exceed revenue because sales are not yet significant.
We cannot assure when or if revenue will exceed operating costs.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
As of March 31, 2010, we had a working capital deficit of $(524,280) as
compared to $(672,875) at December 31, 2009. This decrease in working capital
deficit of $148,595 was due primarily to equity financing obtained during the
three months ended March 31, 2010.
Cash flow used in operating activities was $(49,539) for the three
months ended March 31, 2010, as compared to cash used of $(712) for three months
ended March 31, 2009. This increase of $(48,827) was primarily attributable to
the payment of accounts payable.
Cash provided by investing activities was $0 for the three months ended
March 31, 2010 as compared to cash provided of $1,347 for the three months ended
March 31, 2009. The decrease of cash provided by investing activities was due to
no return of an investment received during the current period.
Cash provided from financing activities during the three months ended
March 31, 2010 was $156,000 as compared to cash provided of $485 for the three
months ended March 31, 2009. The increase of $155,515 was due to equity
financing obtained during the three months ended March 31, 2010.
OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
We do not have any off balance sheet arrangements that are reasonably
likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, revenues,
results of operations, liquidity or capital expenditures.

ITEM 4T. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.
EVALUATION OF DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to
ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company is recorded,
processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the
rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Our management, under the direction of our Chief Executive Officer and
Principal Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the design and
operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such terms are defined
in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of March 31, 2010.
As part of such evaluation, management considered the matters discussed below
relating to internal control over financial reporting. Based on this evaluation
our management, including the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Principal
Financial Officer, has concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and
procedures were effective as of March 31, 2010.
INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
The Company's Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer,
is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over
financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under 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 of accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States. Because of its inherent
limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect
misstatements. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can
provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives.

CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROLS OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
There were no changes in the Company's internal control over financial
reporting identified in connection with the evaluation of it that occurred
during the quarter ended March 31, 2010 that materially affected or are
reasonably likely to materially affect the Company's internal control over
financial reporting.
