NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Management Opinion
The financial information as of June 30, 2003 and for the three months and six
months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, in the opinion of management, includes all
adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, that are
considered necessary for fair presentation of the financial position, results of
operations and cash flows of Integrated Alarm Services Group, Inc. and
Subsidiaries' (IASG or the "Company") for the three months and six months ended
June 30, 2003 and 2002 in accordance with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America. The results for any interim period are
not necessarily indicative of results for the full year. Certain information and
footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America have been omitted. These financial statements should be read in
conjunction with financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended
December 31, 2002 included in the Company's Amended Registration Statement on
Form S-1/A. Certain prior period data have been reclassified to conform to the
current period presentation.
2. Acquisition of Integrated Alarms Services, Inc.
Integrated Alarm Services, Inc. (IASI) which was acquired on January 31, 2003
provides financing and capital to independent security alarm dealers throughout
the United States. IASI provides working capital to the independent dealers
necessary for the growth of the dealers' business and financing for
acquisitions. IASI has built a vertically integrated infrastructure, capable of
handling all aspects of a financing for independent alarm dealers including due
diligence, billing and collections and the securitizing of alarm contracts. IASI
owns a significant portfolio of residential and commercial alarm contracts and
contracts assumed upon the foreclosure of loans to dealers for which it provides
monitoring services (through IASG and other non-affiliated entities) to its
customers.
In connection with the acquisition of IASI and affiliates, IASG issued 864,192
shares of its common stock, of which 525,452 shares were issued to minority
interests for a total fair value of $11,559,944 related to these acquisitions.
The predecessor cost basis in net assets acquired was approximately
($21,465,000), for which 338,740 shares of common stock were issued. The
transaction was accounted for under the purchase method of accounting.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)
The proforma results of operations do not purport to represent what the
Company's results of operations would actually have been had the acquisition
been effected for the periods presented, or to predict the Company's results of
operations for any future period
3. Goodwill and Intangibles
Goodwill was being amortized on a straight-line basis over its estimated useful
life of 15 years through December 31, 2001. Effective January 1, 2002, the
Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 142,
"Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets". SFAS No. 142 changed the accounting for
goodwill from an amortization method to an impairment-only approach. An initial
transition impairment test of goodwill was required as of January 1, 2002. The
Company completed this initial transition impairment test during the second
quarter of 2002, which did not result in any impairment charges. An annual
impairment test will be performed in the third quarter of each year.
For purposes of applying SFAS No. 142, the Company had determined that it had
two reporting units consistent with its two operating segments. Fair value of
the reporting units and the related implied fair value of goodwill was
established using valuation techniques based upon multiples of earning and
discounted cash flows. The Company has identified no impairment charges.
Customer Contracts and Dealer Relationships
SFAS No. 144 "Accounting for the Impairment of Disposal of Long Lived Assets"
requires that long-lived assets be reviewed for impairment whenever events or
changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not
be recoverable. Recoverability of the assets to be held and used is measured by
a comparison of the carrying amount of the assets with the future net cash flows
expected to be generated. Cash flows of dealer relationshps and retail customer
contracts are analyzed at the same group level (acquisition by acquisition and
portfolio grouping, respectively) that they are identified for amortization, the
lowest level for which independent cash flows are identifiable. All other
long-lived assets are evaluated for impairment at the Company level, using one
asset grouping. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to
be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the
assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. Customer contracts were recorded at
fair value on January 31, 2003, the purchase date. The Company has idenitifed no
impairment losses.
Customer contracts at June 30, 2003 consist of the following:

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)
Certain customer contracts acquired upon the IASI acquisition, with a cost basis
of approximately $16,600,000, are subject to optional repurchase by the seller
at a discounted price. The Company is amortizing these customer contracts such
that the net book value approximates the discounted repurchase option price.
Such repurchase is contingent on the seller complying with certain conditions
outlined in the contract purchase agreement over a six-year period.
Customer contract amortization expense for the six months ended June 30, 2003
was $3,741,634.

4. Income Taxes
As a result of the merger of KC Acquisition with IASG during January 2003, KC
Acquisition, KCF, Morlyn and Criticom will no longer be considered flow through
entities to their shareholders and members and, therefore, must record current
and deferred income taxes from its earnings and losses, and recognize the tax
consequences of "temporary differences" between financial statement and the tax
basis of existing assets and liabilities. At the time of the change in tax
status (S to C Corporation) of the enterprise, the Company recorded an
additional deferred tax liability of approximately $3,305,000, which is being
included in income tax expense in 2003.

6. Litigation
In March 2003, Protection One Alarm Monitoring, Inc., ("Protection One") a
company engaged in the business of providing security and other alarm monitoring
services to residential and commercial customers, brought an action against the
Company in the Superior Court of New Jersey, Camden County for unspecified
damages in connection with the Company's purchase of certain alarm monitoring
contracts from B&D Advertising Corporation ("B&D"). B&D had previously sold
alarm monitoring contracts to Protection One. As part of such sales, B&D agreed
not to solicit any customers whose contracts had been purchased and to keep
certain information confidential. Protection One claims that the Company's
subsequent purchase of contracts from B&D constitutes tortuous interference,
that the Company utilized confidential information belonging to Protection One
and that Protection One had an interest in some of the contracts that the
Company purchased from B&D. The Company plans to vigorously defend this claim.
The Company believes the resolution of this matter will not have a material
adverse effect on its financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
In May 2003, a former employee of McGinn, Smith & Co., Inc., brought an action
against the Company, as well as McGinn, Smith & Co., Inc. and M&S Partners for
wrongful termination. The suit brought in the Supreme Court of the State of New
York seeks damages of $10,000,000. McGinn, Smith & Co., Inc. and M&S Partners
have fully indemnified the Company from any damages or legal expenses that the
Company may incur as a result of the suit. This employee of McGinn, Smith & Co.,
Inc. was never the Company's employee and the Company plans to vigorously defend
this claim. The Company believes the resolution of this matter will not have a
material adverse effect on its financial condition, results of operations or
cash flows.
The Company is involved in litigation and various legal matters that have arisen
in the ordinary course of business. The Company does not believe that the
outcome of these matters will have a material adverse effect on the Company's
financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
7. Related Party Transactions
During April 2003, the Company assumed approximately $250,000 of debt from
Capital Center Credit Corp. As a result, for the quarter ended June 30, 2003,
IASG recognized general and administrative expense of $250,000.
The Company incurred $264,210 and $27,483, respectively, in related party
interest for the three months ended June 30, 2002 and June 30, 2003 of which
$77,513 in 2002 was to IASI.

(Successor to KC Acquisition Corporation and Subsidiaries)
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)
The Company earned monitoring fees from trusts that are related parties of
approximately $135,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2003.
The Company rents office space month to month from a related party.
Included in long-term debt (junior debt) are contract certificates held by
related parties that totaled approximately $330,000 at June 30, 2003.
8. Swap Arrangement
At June 30, 2003, IASI has an interest rate SWAP arrangement (maturing March 15,
2004) to fix the interest rate at 8.3% on approximately $2,775,000 of floating
rate senior debt. The interest rate SWAP does not qualify as a hedge,
accordingly changes in fair value are recorded as interest expense in the
statement of operations. The fair value of the SWAP at June 30, 2003 was a
liability of approximately $17,000.
9. Segment and Related Information
In connection with the acquisition of IASI, IASG acquired IASI's retail services
business. As a result, IASG believes it has two reportable segments: (1)
Alarm-Monitoring wholesale services and (2) Alarm-Monitoring retail services.
The reportable segments are considered by management to be strategic business
units that offer different services and each of whose respective long-term
financial performance is affected by similar economic conditions. IASG has
determined its reportable segments based on its method of internal reporting
which is used by management for making operational decisions and assessing
performance.
The alarm-monitoring wholesale services segment provides monitoring services to
a broad range of independent alarm-monitoring dealers. The alarm-monitoring
retail services segment provides working capital to independent alarm-monitoring
dealers. This is accomplished by purchasing alarm monitoring contracts from the
dealer or by providing loans using the dealer's alarm monitoring contracts as
collateral. IASI provides monitoring services (through IASG and other
non-affiliated entities) to its customers.
Management has determined that an appropriate measure of the performance of its
operating segments would be made through an evaluation of each segment's income
(loss) before income taxes. Accordingly, the Company's summarized financial
information regarding the Company's reportable segments is presented through
income (loss) before income taxes for the three months and six months ended June
30, 2003. Prior to January 31, 2003, the Company operated in only one segment,
alarm-monitoring wholesale services. The acquisition of IASI and affiliates
established the new segment, alarm-monitoring retail services for independent
alarm-monitoring dealers. Intersegment revenues have been eliminated.

There was no material change in the total assets of the reportable segments
during the three months ended June 30, 2003.
10. Commitment
In April 2003, the Company entered into a three-year contract with a committed
two-year term with AT&T, Inc. for communications services. As part of that
contract, the Company is required to use $780,000 per year for the first two
years of the contract.
11. Subsequent Events
In June 2003, the Company secured a $20 million account acquisition facility
with LaSalle Bank N.A., which was contingent upon the completion of an initial
public offering with minimum net proceeds of $115 million. The facility is
available to IASG for acquisitions of security alarm companies and pools of
security alarm contracts. The facility has not been closed in spite of the
completion of the IPO due to the Company's revised plan to secure a larger
facility with LaSalle Bank N.A. at more favorable terms.
During July 2003, a trust whose trustees are affiliated with the Company,
advanced $400,000 to the Company on a short-term basis. The funds have not been
returned to the trust as of this date.

INTEGRATED ALARM SERVICES GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
(Successor to KC Acquisition Corporation and Subsidiaries)
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)
On July 29, 2003, the Company successfully completed its initial public
offering. A total of 22,000,000 shares of common stock were issued at a per
share price of $9.25. The proceeds to the Company after underwriting commissions
(7%) were $189,255,000. The common stock trades on the NASDAQ National Market
under the symbol "IASG".
Concurrent with the offering, Messrs. McGinn, Few, Sr., Smith, Quady and the
former shareholders of Criticom, were issued, in the aggregate, options to
purchase 1,900,000 shares of the Company;'s common stock (the "Shareholder
Options"). The options will vest as follows: (i) 30% will vest and be
immediately exercisable on the first anniversay of the offering; (ii) 30% will
vest and be immediately exercisable on the second anniversay of the offering;
(iii) 40% will vest and become immediately exercisable on the third anniversay
of the offering. The exercise price of the options are equal to the per share
offering price ($9.25) and thus have no intrinsic value. In addition,
independent non-executive directors were granted options to acquire, in the
aggregate, 48,000 shares of common stock at the initial public offering price
($9.25). The options vested on July 23, 2003 and will expire seven years from
that date.
The Company will account for stock options in accordance with Accounting
Principles Board Opinion No. 25 (ABP No. 25), "Accounting for stock issued to
Employees". Under APB No. 25, the Company will recognize no compensation expense
related to employee stock options, as no options are granted at a price below
the market price on the day of grant.
On August 27, 2003, the underwriters of the Company's initial public offering
exercised their over allotment option and an additional 982,729 common shares
were issued at a per share price of $9.25. The proceeds to the Company after
underwriting commissions (7%) were $8,453,926.
As of September 5, 2003, the Company has paid-off approximately $94.6 million in
debt with the proceeds from the offering of which approximately $56.0 million
was classified as long-term at June 30, 2003.
12. Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In May 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Financial
Accounting Standard No. 150, Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with
Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity, (FAS No. 150). The Standard
establishes how an issuer classifies and measures certain financial instruments
with characteristics of both liabilities and equity. This Standard becomes
effective for any financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31,
2003. The Company does not expect the adoption of FAS No. 150, to have a
material effect on its financial statements.
In April 2003, the FASB issued financial Accounting Standard No. 149, amendment
of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, (FAS No.
149). This statement amends and clarifies financial accounting and reporting for
derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in
other contracts, and other hedging activities entered into after June 30, 2003.
The Company does not expect the adoption of FAS No. 149, to have a material
effect on its financial statements.
13
Item 2. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations for the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2003.
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the accompanying
Financial Statements and Notes thereto.
Critical Accounting Policies.
Our discussion and analysis of results of operations, financial condition and
cash flows are based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America (GAAP). The preparation of these financial statements requires us to
make estimates and judgments that effect the reported amounts of assets,
liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets
and liabilities. These estimates are evaluated on an on-going basis, including
those related to dealer relationships, goodwill, income taxes, and contingencies
and litigation. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various
other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances,
the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying
values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other
sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different
assumptions or conditions.
Revenue recognition.
All revenue is recognized on an accrual basis. Accounts receivable consists
primarily of amounts due from dealers and end- users located in the United
States. Credit is extended based upon an evaluation of the dealers and end-users
financial condition and credit history. Receivables that are deemed not
collectible have been provided for in the allowance for doubtful accounts. If
the dealers financial condition were to deteriorate, resulting in their
inability to make payments, additional allowances may be required.
Acquisition of IASI and Affiliates.
The allocation of purchase price related to the acquisition of IASI and
Affiliates is preliminary and based on management's estimate of fair values. The
purchase price allocation will be finalized upon the completion of an
independent valuation study to occur in the third quarter of 2003. If the final
valuation is signifcantly differenct from management's estimate, it may result
in additional charges to earnings in the third quarter of 2003 and thereafter.
Notes receivable.
We make loans to dealers, which are collateralized by the dealers' portfolio of
end-user alarm monitoring contracts. Loans to dealers are carried at the lower
of the principal amount outstanding or the net realizable value of the portfolio
underlying the loan. Loans are generally considered non-performing if they are
120 days in arrears of contractual terms.
Management periodically evaluates the loan portfolio to assess the
collectibility of dealer notes and adequacy of allowance for loan losses.
Management reviews certain criteria in assessing the adequacy of the allowance
for loan losses including our past loan loss experience, known and inherent
risks in the portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrower's
ability to repay, the estimated value of any underlying collateral and current
economic conditions. Loan impairment is identified when a portfolio's cash flow
is materially below the minimum necessary to service the loan. In most cases,
loans will be foreclosed and valued at the lower of cost (loan carrying value)
or fair value of end-user contracts using recent transaction prices and industry
benchmarks.
Notes receivable consists of loans to dealers which are collateralized by a
portfolio of individual end-user monitoring contracts. When a dealer becomes
delinquent, we generally foreclose on and take ownership of the portfolio of
end-user monitoring contracts.
Deferred costs.
Debt issuance costs represent direct costs incurred in connection with obtaining
financing with related parties and banks. Debt issuance costs are being
amortized over the life of the related obligations using the effective interest
method.
14
Intangible assets.
Alarm monitoring services for dealers' end-users are outsourced to us. We
acquire such dealer relationships from our internally generated sales efforts
and from other monitoring companies. Acquired dealer relationships are recorded
at cost which management believes approximates fair value. End-user alarm
monitoring contracts are acquired from the dealers' pre-existing portfolios of
contracts or assumed upon the foreclosure on dealers' loans.
Acquired end-user alarm monitoring contracts are recorded at cost which
management believes approximates fair value. End-user alarm monitoring contracts
assumed as a result of foreclosure on dealer loans are recorded at the lower of
cost (loan carrying value) or the fair value of such contracts using recent
transaction prices and industry benchmarks at the time of foreclosure.
End-user alarm monitoring contracts are amortized over the term that such
end-users are expected to remain a customer of the Company. The Company, on an
ongoing basis, conducts comprehensive reviews of its amortization policy for
end-user contracts and, when deemed appropriate, uses an independent appraisal
firm to assist in performing an attrition study.
Dealer relationships and customer (end-user) contracts are amortized using
methods and lives which are management's estimates, based upon all information
available (including industry data, attrition studies, current portfolio
trends), of the life (attrition pattern) of the underlying contracts and
relationships. If actual results vary negatively (primarily attrition) from
management assumptions, amortization will be accelerated which will negatively
impact results from operations. If amortization is not accelerated or conditions
deteriorate dramatically, the asset could become impaired. For existing
portfolio accounts purchased subsequent to January 31, 2003, the Company will
amortize such accounts using the straight-line method over an 18 year period
plus actual attrition. This methodology may cause significant variations in
amortization expense in future periods.
Dealer relationships and end-user alarm monitoring contracts are tested for
impairment on a periodic basis or as circumstances warrant. Recoverability of
dealer relationship costs and end-user alarm monitoring contracts are highly
dependent on our ability to maintain our dealers. Factors we consider important
that could trigger an impairment review include higher levels of attrition of
dealers and/or end-user alarm monitoring contracts and continuing recurring
losses.
SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets"
requires that the assets be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes
in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be
recoverable. Recoverability of the assets to be held and used is measured by a
comparison of the carrying amount of the assets with the future net cash flows
expected to be generated. Cash flows of dealer relationships and retail customer
contracts are analyzed at the same group level (acquisition by acquisition and
portfolio grouping, respectively) that they are identified for amortization, the
lowest level for which independent cash flows are identifiable. All other
long-lived assets are evaluated for impairment at the company level, using one
asset grouping. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to
be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the
assets exceeds the fair value of the assets.
Goodwill was being amortized on a straight-line basis over its estimated useful
life of 15 years through December 31, 2001. Effective January 1, 2002, we
adopted SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets." SFAS 142 changed
the accounting for goodwill from an amortization method to an impairment-only
approach. An initial transition impairment test of goodwill was required as of
January 1, 2002. We completed this initial transition impairment test during the
second quarter of 2002, which did not result in any impairment charges. Our
annual impairment test will be performed in the third quarter of each year.
Income taxes.
As part of the process of preparing our financial statements, we will be
required to estimate our income taxes in each of the jurisdictions in which we
operate. This process will involve estimates of our actual current tax exposure
together with assessing temporary differences resulting from differing treatment
of items, such as depreciation and amortization, for tax and accounting
purposes.

Results of operations
Three months ended June 30, 2003 compared to the three months ended June 30,
2002.
Revenue.
Total revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2003 was $9,762,688 compared
to $5,611,024 for the same period during the prior year, an increase of
$4,151,664, or 74.0%.
Wholesale monitoring revenues increased from $5,196,648 to $5,987,769, an
increase of $791,121, or 15.2%. The acquisition of Criticom, during September
2002, contributed approximately 80,000 monitored accounts, while dealer and
end-user attrition resulted in the loss of 20,890 accounts for the twelve months
ended June 30, 2003. The majority of this attrition is believed to have been the
result of reduced end-user account growth attributable to our central station
consolidation and monitoring system conversion program. The net loss of 20,890
accounts represents approximately $89,000 of recurring monthly revenue, a loss
that has been offset by monthly expense savings totaling approximately $183,000
in connection with our central station consolidation and monitoring system
conversion programs. As a result of the net increase in accounts, additional
revenue of $734,948 was generated during the three months ended June 30, 2003 as
compared to the same period in the prior year. In addition, an increase in
average per account per month revenue from $4.14 to $4.18 resulted in $56,173 of
incremental revenue during the second quarter of year 2003, as compared to the
same period of year 2002. The total number of end-user accounts monitored at
June 30, 2003, was approximately 477,000.
Revenues for our retail operations, which we acquired during January 2003,
totaled $ 3,661,950.
Other revenue, which includes billing and placement fees and service revenue,
totaled $112,969, a decrease of $301,407 compared with same period last year.
The decrease in other revenue is primarily the result of fewer retail account
placement transactions during the quarter in anticipation of the Company's
public offering.
Cost of Revenue.
Our cost of revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2003 was $3,846,842
compared with $4,183,168 for the same period last year, a $336,326 improvement.
Our June 2003 results include cost of revenue totaling $635,643 associated with
Criticom, which we acquired during September 2002. As a result, the cost of
revenue for our other monitoring operations decreased $971,969 during the
comparable periods.
Direct margin, including Criticom's operations, increased from 25.4% during the
three months ended June 30, 2002 to 60.6% for the same period during 2003. This
improvement is the direct result of the central station consolidation
initiatives we completed late last year.
Since our acquisition of IASI and affiliates on January 31, 2003, our revenue
increased by $3,283,282 reflecting customer contract revenue billed at
approximately $29.95 versus monitoring revenue billed at approximately $3.00 per
customer contract per month. This had a direct result in improving profit
margins in 2003 by 20.0%.
Operating Expenses.
Operating expenses increased from $1,683,146 to $6,425,841, an increase of
$4,742,695. The primary contributors to the increase were our acquisition of
IASI, which added expenses totaling $4,132,679, and increased audit fees that
were incurred in the monitoring companies that related to our IPO activities.
Selling and marketing expenses increased $80,803 from $109,625 to $190,428.
Approximately $40,000 of this increase is attributible to additional expenses
resulting from the acquisition of Criticom. Most of the remainder of the
increase is due to a change in the compensation programs in the placement
businesses designed to reduce commission expenses, which resulted in additional
salary expense during the three months ended June 30, 2003.
16
Depreciation and amortization expenses increased from $1,314,926 to $3,549,904,
an increase of $2,234,978. This increase was primarily a result of the
consolidation of IASI's amortization expenses totaling, $2,229,483. Our use of
declining balance amortization methods was offset by additional depreciation and
amortization expense associated with the acquisition of Criticom, resulted in
the slight increase.
General and administrative expenses (including monitoring expense) increased
from $258,595 to $2,685,509, or $2,426,914. The largest component of this
increase relates to the consolidation of IASI's general and administrative
expenses totaling $1,903,196 for the three months ended June 30, 2003. IASI's
general and administrative expenses included: payroll related expenses totaling
approximately $467,000; bad debt expense totaling $299,000; assumption of debt
from Capital Center Credit Corporation (CCCC), a related party, in the amount of
$250,000; audit fees related to IPO activity of $235,000; bank and line of
credit commitment fees of $216,000; service expenses of $149,000; professional
and billing services fees totaling $130,000; and, other expenses totaling
approximately $157,000. The balance of the increase in the Company's general and
administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2003 can be
attributed to an increase in general and administrative expenses for the third
party monitoring operations from $258,595 to $782,313, or $523,718. The third
party monitoring operations increase is comprised, in part, of approxmiately
$169,000 of additional expenses resulting from the acquisition of Criticom. The
remainder of the third party monitoring increase can be primarily attributed to
increased professional fees, which includes audit fees related to our IPO
activities of $169,000, as well as increased legal fees from certain litigation.
Other Income/Loss.
Other loss for the three months ended June 30, 2003 of approximately $121,000,
resulting from expenses related to the acquisition of RTC Alarm, compares to
other income for the same period in year 2002 of approximately $922,000, which
arose from the forgiveness of debt in connection with a litigation settlement
for an uncompleted merger.
Amortization of debt issuance costs.
The amortization of debt issuance costs increased $314,658 from $215,080 to
$529,738. In the third party monitoring business, amortization of debt issuance
costs decreased from $215,080 to $136,514, reflecting the refinancing of certain
indebtedness during October 2002. This was partially offset by financing costs
associated with our acquisitions of CDS and RTC. Amortization of debt issuance
costs for IASI was $393,224.
Interest Expense, net of interest income.
Interest expense, net of interest income increased by $2,888,825 from $1,254,328
to $4,143,153. In the wholesale monitoring business, interest expense, net of
interest income increased from $1,254,328 to $1,305,530, or 4.1% while IASI's
interest expense, net of interest income of $310,067 totaled $2,837,623.
Taxes.
Income tax expense totaled $122,564 for the three months ended June 30, 2002
compared with an income tax benefit totaling $50,115 for the three months ended
June 30, 2003. The income tax expense recorded during the three months ended
June 30, 2002 and 2003, did not reflect merger or acquisition related
adjustments.
Net Loss.
Our net loss increased from $924,987 during the three months ended June 30, 2002
to $5,253,513 for the three months ended June 30, 2003. The monitoring
operations recorded a loss totaling $924,987 for the three months ended June 30,
2002, inclusive of the one-time other income event mentioned previously, that
contributed income totaling $922,275. Adjusting for the one-time income event,
the monitoring businesses incurred a loss totaling $1,847,262 for the three
months ended June 30, 2002. This compares to a net loss totaling $902,410 during
the same period during 2003, an improvement of $944,852. IASI incurred a loss
totaling $4,351,103 during the three months ended June 30, 2003. Interest
expense represented the largest component of IASI's second quarter expenses,
followed by depreciation and amortization and other operating expenses.
17
Six months ended June 30, 2003 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2002
Revenue.
Total revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2003 was $18,516,325 compared to
$10,989,221 for the same period during the prior year, an increase of $7,527,104
or 68.5%.
Wholesale monitoring revenues increased from $10,425,062 to $12,224,801, or
$1,799,739, primarily as a result of a 59,110 account net increase in monitored
end-user accounts. This net account increase was due to an 80,000 account
increase from the acquisition of Criticom offset, in part, by dealer and
end-user attrition which resulted in the net loss of 20,890 accounts since June
30, 2002. The majority of this attrition is believed to have been the result of
reduced end-user account growth attributable to our central station
consolidation and monitoring system conversion program. The loss of revenue
associated with this attrition has offset by the realization of expense savings
from the consolidations and conversion. The net addition of 59,110 end-user
accounts since June 30, 2002, resulted in additional revenues totaling
$1,474,386 compared to June 2002. Our revenue per end-user account also
increased from $4.16 to $4.27, or 2.7%, which contributed an additional $325,353
to the period over period increase. The increase in revenue per end-user account
relates primarily to our acquisition of Criticom, whose revenue per end-user
account was $4.94 at June 30, 2003.
Revenues for our retail operations, which we acquired with our purchase of IASI
during January 2003, totaled $6,067,135 at June 30, 2003. IASI acquires alarm
monitoring contracts from dealers and owned approximately 39,000 end-user
agreements at June 30, 2003.
Other revenue, which includes billing and placement monitoring fees and service
revenue, totaled $224,389, a decrease of $339,770 compared with last year. Most
the decrease is a result of fewer retail account placement transactions during
the first six months of 2003 in anticipation of the Company's public offering.
Placement fees during the six months ended June 30, 2002, included fees earned
in connection with the acquisition of the Payne portfolio as well as several
other sizable transactions.
Cost of Revenue.
Our cost of revenue totaled $7,667,741, $61,026 less than the period in the
prior year. IASI's customer contract revenue has little cost of revenue and
therefore, all of IASI's expenses are categorized as operating expenses.
Third party monitoring expenses increased from $6,881,055 to $7,101,388, an
increase of 3.2%. As a result of increased synergy achieved through the
consolidation and monitoring system conversion program, our monitoring
operations experienced a reduction of expenses totaling $1,173,323 before
including direct expenses totaling $1,396,302 associated with our purchase of
Criticom. This reduction of direct expenses, as well as the addition of customer
contract revenue, was reflected in an increase in direct margin from our third
party monitoring operations. Our direct margin increased from 29.7% at June 30,
2002 to 58.6% at June 30, 2003.
Since our acquisition of IASI and affiliates on January 31, 2003 our revenue
increased by 5,421,562 reflecting customer contract revenue billed at
approximately $29.95 versus monitoring revenue billed at approximately $3.00 per
customer contract per month. This had direct result in improving profit margins
in 2003 by 17.2%.
Other direct expenses, decreased from $847,712 to $566,353 or 33.2% as a result
of the transfer of certain support operations associated with the retail
portfolios to IASI.
Operating Expenses.
Operating expenses increased from $3,701,562 to $15,084,017, reflecting our
acquisition of Criticom during September 2002 and our acquisition of IASI
during January 2003.

Selling and marketing expenses increased $117,517, from $337,977 to $455,494, or
34.8%. For the six months ended June 30, 2003, Criticom added $99,041 to our
selling and marketing expenses representing the majority of our year over year
increase. This incremental amount was comprised of salary expense of
approximately $52,000, travel and lodging of approximately $39,000 and other
expenses totaling approximately $8,000.
Depreciation and amortization expenses increased from $2,668,198 to $6,420,425
or $3,752,227.
Amortization associated with our third party monitoring businesses decreased
from $2,295,992 to $2,223,647, as a result of our use of declining balance
amortization methods offset by additional amortization expenses associated with
the acquisition of Criticom. Our acquisition of Criticom added $284,070 to
amortization expense during the six months ended June 30, 2003.
Depreciation expense for the third party monitoring businesses increased from
$372,206 to $455,146 or 22.3%, primarily attributable to the acquisition of
Criticom.
Amortization expenses for IASI were $3,741,632, reflecting the amortization of
acquired alarm monitoring contracts.
General and administrative expenses (including monitoring expense) increased
from $695,387 to $8,208,098, or $7,512,711 for the six months ended June 30,
2003. The largest component of this increase relates to the consolidation of
IASI's general and administrative expenses totaling $6,383,316. IASI's general
and administrative expenses included: assumption of debt from CCCC in the amount
of $1,825,000; a cash payment to CCCC of $1,700,000; payroll related expenses
totaling approximately $776,000; audit fees related to IPO activity of $706,000;
bad debt expense totaling $510,000; bank and line of credit commitment fees of
$226,000; professional and billing services fees totaling $218,000; service
expenses of $157,000; and, other expenses totaling approximately $265,000. The
balance of the increase in the Company's general and administrative expenses for
the six months ended June 30, 2003 can be attributed to an increase in general
and administrative expenses for the third party monitoring operations from
$695,387 to $1,824,486, or $1,129,099. The third party monitoring operations
increase is comprised, in part, of approxmiately $381,000 of additional expenses
resulting from the acquisition of Criticom. The remainder of the third party
monitoring increase can be primarily attributed to increased professional fees,
which includes audit fees related to our IPO activities of $539,000 as well as
increased legal fees from certain litigation.
IASI's general and administrative expenses totaled $6,383,613 during the first
six months of 2003 that included a cash payment to CCCC, a related party, of
$1,950,000 and the assumption of debt totaling $1,575,000. The remainder of IASI
general and administrative expenses included audit fees related to our IPO
activities totaling $940,355, payroll expenses totaling approximately $715,000,
bad debt expenses totaling $615,000 and other expenses totaling approximately
$500,000.
Other Income/Loss.
Other loss for the six months ended June 30, 2003 of approximately $263,000,
resulted from expenses related to the acquisition of RTC Alarm, compares to
other income for the same period in year 2002 of approximately $922,000, which
arose from the forgiveness of debt in connection with a litigation settlement
for an uncompleted merger.
Amortization of Debt Issuance Costs.
The amortization of debt issuance costs increased $477,253 from $430,160 to
$907,413. In the third party monitoring businesses, amortization of debt
issuance costs decreased from $430,160 to $254,029, reflecting the refinancing
of certain indebtedness during October 2002, which was partially offset by
financing costs associated with our acquisitions of CDS and RTC. Amortization of
debt issuance costs for IASI was $653,384.
19
Interest Expense, net of interest income.
Interest expense, net of interest income increased by $4,830,390 from
$2,512,954 to $7,343,344. In the third party monitoring businesses, interest
expense, net of interest income increased from $2,512,954 to $2,607,486, or
3.8%. IASI's interest expense, net of interest income of $504,921, totaled
$4,735,858.
Taxes.
Income tax expenses of $3,367,173 were recorded in the current period versus
income tax expense totaling $32,775 during the same period last year. As a
result of the merger of KC Acquisition with IASG during January 2003, KC
Acquisition, KCF, Morlyn and Criticom will no longer be considered flow through
entities to their shareholders and members and, therefore, must record current
and deferred income taxes from it's earnings and losses, and recognize the tax
consequences of "temporary differences" between financial statement and the tax
basis of existing assets and liabilities. At the time of the change in tax
status of the enterprise, the Company recorded an additional deferred tax
liability of approximately $3,505,000, which is being included in income tax
expense in 2003. In the wholesale monitoring businesses, the prior period tax
benefit reflected the change in the deferred tax liability net of S corporate
taxes.
Net Loss.
The Company's net loss increased from $2,494,722 to $16,116,113, or $13,621,391.
The primary contributors to the increased loss were the increase in income tax
expense totaling $3,367,173, the transaction with CCCC in which the Company
incurred expenses totaling $3,525,000, the absence of the one-time litigation
settlement that generated other income totaling $922,275 during 2002 and
additional expenses resulting from the acquisition of IASI offset by IASI's
revenue.

Liquidity and Capital Resources.
The balance sheet at June 30, 2003 includes notes receivable and customer
contracts of approximately $44.8 million. These assets were acquired as part of
the IASI acquisition in January 2003. Total debt had increased to approximately
$163.9 million as of June 30, 2003. Approximately $117 million of that debt was
acquired as a result of the IASI acquisition.
On July 29, 2003, the Company successfully completed its initial public
offering. A total of 22,000,000 shares of common stock were issued at a per
share price of $9.25. The proceeds to the Company after underwriting commissions
(7%) were $189,255,000. The common stock trades on the NASDAQ National Market
under the symbol "IASG".
On August 27, 2003, the underwriters exercised a portion of their overallotment
option and an additional 982,729 shares of common stock were issued at a per
share price of $9.25. The proceeds to the Company after underwriting commissions
(7%) were $8,453,926.
As of September 5, 2003, the Company has paid-off approximately $94.6 million in
debt that existed as of June 30, 2003 with the proceeds from the offering.
During 2003, we were in default of our monthly and quarterly financial and
non-financial debt covenants under our various debt agreements with LaSalle Bank
N.A., Key Bank National Association (Key Bank) and SLP Capital. The Key Bank and
SLP Capital debts were paid-off with proceeds from the initial public offering
during August 2003.
On May 9, 2003 we received a permanent bank waiver from LaSalle through April 1,
2003 for certain past covenant violations. With respect to an attrition
covenant, the Company has provided LaSalle with a security interest in
approximately $100,000 of additional alarm contract recurring monthly revenue.
After giving effect to the waivers decribed above, we are not currently in
default of our covenants.
In June 2003, the Company secured a $20 million account acquisition facility
with LaSalle Bank N.A., which was contingent upon the completion of an initial
public offering with minimum net proceeds of $115 million. The facility is
available to IASG for acquisitions of security alarm companies and pools of
security alarm contracts. The facility has not been closed in spite of the
completion of the IPO due to the Company's revised plan to secure a larger
facility with LaSalle Bank N.A. at more favorable terms.
The following is our debt payments due by period (in millions) as of June 30,
2003 after giving effect to the $94.6 million of debt retired with the proceeds
from the initial public offering:

Total 2003 2004 2005 2006 Thereafter
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Debt $ 69.3 $ 2.5 $ 19.2 $ 9.1 $ 3.8 $ 34.7
=========================================================================================
Our capital expenditures anticipated over the next twelve months include
equipment and software of approximately $2 million and our strategy to purchase
monitoring contracts, which we anticipate to be approximately $134 million. This
strategy is dependent on obtaining additional financing.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In May 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Financial
Accounting Standard No. 150, Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with
Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity, (FAS No. 150). The Standard
establishes how an issuer classifies and measures certain financial instruments
with characteristics of both liabilities and equity. This Standard becomes
effective for any financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31,
2003. The Company does not expect the adoption of FAS No. 150, to have a
material effect on its financial statements.
In April 2003, the FASB issued financial Accounting Standard No. 149, amendment
of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, (FAS No.
149). This statement amends and clarifies financial accounting and reporting for
derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in
other contracts, and other hedging activities entered into after June 30, 2003.
The Company does not expect the adoption of FAS No. 149, to have a material
effect on its financial statements.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Our exposure to market risk is limited to interest income and expense
sensitivity, which is effected by changes in the general level of interest
rates. The primary objective of our investment activities is to preserve
principal while at the same time maximizing the income we receive without
significantly increasing risk. To minimize risk, we maintain our portfolio of
cash, cash equivalents and short-term and restricted investments in a variety of
interest-bearing instruments included United States government and agency
securities, high-grade United States corporate bonds, municipal bonds,
mortgage-backed securities, commercial paper and money market accounts at
established financial institutions. Due to the nature of our short-term and
restricted investments, we believe that we are not subject to any material
market risk exposure. We do not have any foreign currency. At June 30, 2003, we
had approximately $17.8 million of variable rate debt of which $2.8 million of
debt has been fixed with an interest rate swap arrangement.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Within the 90 days prior to the date of this report, the Company carried out an

Officer, and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
In March 2003, Protection One Alarm Monitoring, Inc., a company engaged in the
business of providing security and other alarm monitoring services to
residential and commercial customers, brought an action against us in the
Superior Court of New Jersey, Camden County for unspecified damages in
connection with our purchase of certain alarm monitoring contracts from B&D
Advertising Corporation ("B&D"). B&D had previously sold alarm monitoring
contracts to Protection One. As part of such sales, B&D agreed not to solicit
any customers whose contracts had been purchased and to keep certain information
confidential. Protection One claims that our subsequent purchase of contracts
from B&D constitutes tortious interference, that we utilized confidential
information belonging to Protection One and that Protection One had an interest
in some of the contracts that we purchased from B&D. We plan to vigorously
defend this claim. We believe the resolution of this matter will not have a
material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or
cash flows.
In May 2003, a former employee of McGinn, Smith & Co., Inc., brought an action
against us, as well as McGinn, Smith & Co., Inc. and M&S Partners for wrongful
termination. The suit brought in the Supreme Court of the State of New York
seeks damages of $10,000,000. McGinn, Smith & Co., Inc. and M&S Partners have
fully indemnified us from any damages or legal expenses that we may incur as a
result of the suit. This employee of McGinn, Smith & Co., Inc., was never our
employee and we plan to vigorously defend this claim. We believe the resolution
of this matter will not have a material adverse effect on our financial
condition, results of operations or cash flows.
We from time to time experience routine litigation in the normal course of our
business. We do not believe that any pending litigation will have a material
adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
Other than the items previously disclosed, we are not a party in any other
material legal proceedings.
