NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
March 31, 2010
 
NOTE 1 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Organization

DirectView Holdings, Inc., (the “Company”), was incorporated in the State of Delaware on October 2, 2006. On October 9, 2006, the Company entered into a Subsidiary Stock Purchase Agreement with GS Carbon Trading Inc. (“GS”) formerly DirectView, Inc., a publicly held company.  GS sold its subsidiaries to the Company in return for the assumption by the Company of a portion of GS’ liabilities and all trade credit and other liabilities incidental to these subsidiaries' operations.

For financial reporting purposes, the assets, liabilities, historical earnings (deficits), and additional paid in capital of the acquired subsidiaries are reflected in the Company’s financial statements.

The Company has the following four wholly-owned subsidiaries: DirectView Video Technologies Inc., DirectView Security Systems Inc., Ralston Communication Services Inc., and Meeting Technologies Inc.

The Company is a full-service provider of teleconferencing services to businesses and organizations. The Company's conferencing services enable its clients to cost-effectively conduct remote meetings by linking participants in geographically dispersed locations. The Company's primary focus is to provide high value-added conferencing services to organizations such as professional service firms, investment banks, high tech companies, law firms, investor relations firms, and other domestic and multinational companies.

Basis of presentation

The consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("US GAAP").  The consolidated financial statements of the Company include the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries.  All material intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related footnotes as of and for the year ended December 31, 2009.

In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring items) necessary to present fairly the Company's financial position as of March 31, 2010, and the results of operations and cash flows for the three months ending March 31, 2010 have been included. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2010 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

ASB Accounting Standards Codification

The issuance by the FASB of the Accounting Standards CodificationTM (the “Codification”) on July 1, 2009 (effective for interim or annual reporting periods ending after September 15, 2009), changes the way that GAAP is referenced. Beginning on that date, the Codification officially became the single source of authoritative nongovernmental GAAP; however, SEC registrants must also consider rules, regulations, and interpretive guidance issued by the SEC or its staff. The change affects the way the Company refers to GAAP in financial statements and in its accounting policies. All existing standards that were used to create the Codification became superseded. Instead, references to standards consist solely of the number used in the Codification’s structural organization.

Use of Estimates

In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the statements of financial condition, and revenues and expenses for the years then ended.  Actual results may differ significantly from those estimates. Significant estimates made by management include, but are not limited to, the allowance for doubtful accounts, stock-based compensation, accrued expenses pertaining to abandoned lease office space and the useful life of property and equipment.

Reclassification

Certain amounts in the 2009 consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the 2010 presentation. Such reclassifications had no effect on the reported net loss.

NOTE 1 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company places its cash with a high credit quality financial institution. The Company’s account at this institution is insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") up to $250,000. For the three months ended March 31, 2010 and for the year ended December 31, 2009, the Company has not reached bank balances exceeding the FDIC insurance limit. To reduce its risk associated with the failure of such financial institution, the Company evaluates at least annually the rating of the financial institution in which it holds deposits.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 Effective January 1, 2008, the Company adopted FASB ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” (“ASC 820”), for assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis. ASC 820 establishes a common definition for fair value to be applied to existing generally accepted accounting principles that require the use of fair value measurements, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure about such fair value measurements. The adoption of ASC 820 did not have an impact on the Company’s financial position or operating results, but did expand certain disclosures.
 
ASC 820 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Additionally, ASC 820 requires the use of valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. These inputs are prioritized below:
 
 
Level 1:
Observable inputs such as quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
 
Level 2:
Observable market-based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data
 
Level 3:
Unobservable inputs for which there is little or no market data, which require the use of the reporting entity’s own assumptions.
 
Cash and cash equivalents include money market securities that are considered to be highly liquid and easily tradable as of March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009. These securities are valued using inputs observable in active markets for identical securities and are therefore classified as Level 1 within our fair value hierarchy.
 
In addition, FASB ASC 825-10-25 Fair Value Option was effective for January 1, 2008. ASC 825-10-25 expands opportunities to use fair value measurements in financial reporting and permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. The Company did not elect the fair value options for any of its qualifying financial instruments.

The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheet for cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses, notes payable and due to related parties approximate their estimated fair market value based on the short-term maturity of these instruments. The carrying amount of the notes approximates the estimated fair value for these financial instruments as management believes that such notes constitute substantially all of the Company's debt and the interest payable on the notes approximates the Company's incremental borrowing rate.

Accounts Receivable

The Company has a policy of reserving for questionable accounts based on its best estimate of the amount of probable credit losses in its existing accounts receivable.  The Company periodically reviews its accounts receivable to determine whether an allowance is necessary based on an analysis of past due accounts and other factors that may indicate that the realization of an account may be in doubt.  Account balances deemed to be uncollectible are charged to the bad debt expense after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote.  At March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, management determined that an allowance is necessary which amounted to $75,254.

Inventories

Inventories, consisting of finished goods related to our products are stated at the lower of cost or market utilizing the first-in, first-out method.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
March 31, 2010
 
NOTE 1 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Property and equipment

Property and equipment are carried at cost. The cost of repairs and maintenance is expensed as incurred; major replacements and improvements are capitalized.  When assets are retired or disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts, and any resulting gains or losses are included in income in the year of disposition.  The Company examines the possibility of decreases in the value of fixed assets when events or changes in circumstances reflect the fact that their recorded value may not be recoverable. Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the assets.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

Long-Lived Assets of the Company are reviewed for impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of assets may not be recoverable, pursuant to guidance established in ASC 360-10-35-15, “Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets”. The Company recognizes an impairment loss when the sum of expected undiscounted future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset. The amount of impairment is measured as the difference between the asset’s estimated fair value and its book value. The Company did not consider it necessary to record any impairment charges during the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009.

Income Taxes

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method as prescribed by ASC Topic 740: Income Taxes (“ASC 740”). Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities, and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance, when in the Company's opinion it is likely that some portion or the entire deferred tax asset will not be realized.

Pursuant to ASC Topic 740-10: Income Taxes related to the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes, the evaluation of a tax position is a two-step process. The first step is to determine whether it is more likely than not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of any related appeals or litigation based on the technical merits of that position. The second step is to measure a tax position that meets the more-likely-than-not threshold to determine the amount of benefit to be recognized in the financial statements. A tax position is measured at the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. Tax positions that previously failed to meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold should be recognized in the first subsequent period in which the threshold is met. Previously recognized tax positions that no longer meet the more-likely-than-not criteria should be de-recognized in the first subsequent financial reporting period in which the threshold is no longer met. The accounting standard also provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosures, and transition.  The adoption had no effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.  

Stock Based Compensation

In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, issued FASB ASC Topic 718: Compensation – Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”). Under ASC 718, companies are required to measure the compensation costs of share-based compensation arrangements based on the grant-date fair value and recognize the costs in the financial statements over the period during which employees are required to provide services. Share-based compensation arrangements include stock options, restricted share plans, performance-based awards, share appreciation rights and employee share purchase plans. Companies may elect to apply this statement either prospectively, or on a modified version of retrospective application under which financial statements for prior periods are adjusted on a basis consistent with the pro forma disclosures required for those periods under ASC 718. Upon adoption of ASC 718, the Company elected to value employee stock options using the Black-Scholes option valuation method that uses assumptions that relate to the expected volatility of the Company’s common stock, the expected dividend yield of our stock, the expected life of the options and the risk free interest rate. Such compensation amounts, if any, are amortized over the respective vesting periods or period of service of the option grant. For the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company did not grant any stock options.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Revenue recognition

The Company follows the guidance of the FASB ASC 605-10-S99 “Revenue Recognition Overall – SEC Materials.  The Company records revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, services have been rendered or product delivery has occurred, the sales price to the customer is fixed or determinable, and collectibility is reasonably assured.  When a customer order contains multiple items such as hardware, software, and services which are delivered at varying times, the Company determines whether the delivered items can be considered separate units of accounting.  Delivered items should be considered separate units of accounting if delivered items have value to the customer on a standalone basis, there is objective and reliable evidence of the fair value of undelivered items, and if delivery of undelivered items is probable and substantially in the Company’s control.
 
The following policies reflect specific criteria for the various revenues streams of the Company:
 
Revenue is recognized upon completion of conferencing services. The Company generally does not charge up-front fees and bills its customers based on usage.

Revenue for video equipment sales and security surveillance equipment sales is recognized upon delivery and installation.

Revenue from periodic maintenance agreements is generally recognized ratably over the respective maintenance periods provided no significant obligations remain and collectibility of the related receivable is probable.

Concentrations of Credit Risk and Major Customers

Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and trade accounts receivable. The Company places its cash with high credit quality financial institutions. Almost all of the Company's sales are credit sales which are primarily to customers whose ability to pay is dependent upon the industry economics prevailing in these areas; however, concentrations of credit risk with respect to trade accounts receivables is limited due to generally short payment terms. The Company also performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers to help further reduce credit risk.

During the three months ended March 31, 2010, four customers accounted for 92% of revenues.
During the three months ended March 31, 2009, one customer accounted for 53% of the Company’s revenues.

As of March 31, 2010, three customers accounted for 87% of total accounts receivable. As of December 31, 2009, four customers accounted for 37% of total accounts receivable.

NOTE 1 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Net Loss per Common Share

Net loss per common share are calculated in accordance with ASC Topic 260: Earnings Per Share (“ASC 260”). Basic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. The computation of diluted net earnings per share does not include dilutive common stock equivalents in the weighted average shares outstanding as they would be anti-dilutive. As of March 31, 2010 and 2009, there were no options and warrants which could potentially dilute future earnings per share.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2009, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2009-01, “Generally Accepted Accounting Principles” (ASC Topic 105) which establishes the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“the Codification” or “ASC”) as the official single source of authoritative U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). All existing accounting standards are superseded. All other accounting guidance not included in the Codification will be considered non-authoritative. The Codification also includes all relevant Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) guidance organized using the same topical structure in separate sections within the Codification.

Following the Codification, the Board will not issue new standards in the form of Statements, FASB Staff Positions or Emerging Issues Task Force Abstracts. Instead, it will issue Accounting Standards Updates (“ASU”) which will serve to update the Codification, provide background information about the guidance and provide the basis for conclusions on the changes to the Codification.

The Codification is not intended to change GAAP, but it will change the way GAAP is organized and presented. The Codification is effective for our third-quarter 2009 financial statements and the principal impact on our financial statements is limited to disclosures as all future references to authoritative accounting literature will be referenced in accordance with the Codification.

In May 2009, the FASB issued (ASC Topic 855), “Subsequent Events” (ASC Topic 855). This guidance is intended to establish general standards of accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or available to be issued. It is effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009.  The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In June 2009, the FASB issued ASC Topic 810-10, “Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R)”. This updated guidance requires a qualitative approach to identifying a controlling financial interest in a variable interest entity (VIE), and requires ongoing assessment of whether an entity is a VIE and whether an interest in a VIE makes the holder the primary beneficiary of the VIE. It is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after November 15, 2009. The adoption of ASC Topic 810-10 did not have a material impact on the results of operations and financial condition.

In October 2009, the FASB issued ASU No. 2009-13, “Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements.” This ASU establishes the accounting and reporting guidance for arrangements including multiple revenue-generating activities. This ASU provides amendments to the criteria for separating deliverables, measuring and allocating arrangement consideration to one or more units of accounting. The amendments in this ASU also establish a selling price hierarchy for determining the selling price of a deliverable. Significantly enhanced disclosures are also required to provide information about a vendor’s multiple-deliverable revenue arrangements, including information about the nature and terms, significant deliverables, and its performance within arrangements. The amendments also require providing information about the significant judgments made and changes to those judgments and about how the application of the relative selling-price method affects the timing or amount of revenue recognition. The amendments in this ASU are effective prospectively for revenue arrangements entered into or materially modified in the fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010. Early application is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating this new ASU.

NOTE 1 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

In October 2009, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-14, “Certain Revenue Arrangements That Include Software Elements.” This ASU changes the accounting model for revenue arrangements that include both tangible products and software elements that are “essential to the functionality,” and scopes these products out of current software revenue guidance. The new guidance will include factors to help companies determine what software elements are considered “essential to the functionality.” The amendments will now subject software-enabled products to other revenue guidance and disclosure requirements, such as guidance surrounding revenue arrangements with multiple-deliverables. The amendments in this ASU are effective prospectively for revenue arrangements entered into or materially modified in the fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010. Early application is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating this new ASU.

In January 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2010-06, “Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements” an amendment to ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures.”  This amendment requires an entity to: (i) disclose separately the amounts of significant transfers in and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements and describe the reasons for the transfers and (ii) present separate information for Level 3 activity pertaining to gross purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements.  ASU No. 2010-06 is effective for the Company for interim and annual reporting beginning after December 15, 2009, with one new disclosure effective after December 15, 2010. The adoption of ASU No. 2010-06 did not have a material impact on the results of operations and financial condition.

Other accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by FASB that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements upon adoption.
 
NOTE 2 – GOING CONCERN CONSIDERATIONS

The accompanying consolidated financial statements are prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern.  At March 31, 2010, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $12,647,960, and a working capital deficiency of $1,318,165. Additionally, for the three months ended March 31, 2010, the Company incurred net losses of $149,993 and had negative cash flows from operations in the amount of $269,474. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon increasing sales and obtaining additional capital and financing.  During the three months ended March 31, 2010, the Company received net proceeds from sale of stock of $198,014 and proceeds from issuance of notes and loan payable of $21,489 for working capital purposes.  Management intends to attempt to raise additional funds by way of a public or private offering.  While the Company believes in the viability of its strategy to increase sales volume and in its ability to raise additional funds, there can be no assurances to that effect. The Company's limited financial resources have prevented the Company from aggressively advertising its products and services to achieve consumer recognition.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Overview

Our operations are conducted within two divisions:

 
Our video conferencing divisions which is a full-service provider of teleconferencing products and services to businesses and organizations, and
 
Our security division which provides surveillance systems, digital video recording and services to businesses and organizations.

Our video conferencing products and services enable our clients to cost-effectively conduct remote meetings by linking participants in geographically dispersed locations. Our primary focus is to provide high value-added conferencing products and services to organizations such as commercial, government, medical and educational sectors. We generate revenue through the sale of conferencing services based upon usage, the sale and installation of video equipment and the sale of maintenance agreements.

              We are also a provider of the latest technologies in surveillance systems, digital video recording and services.  The systems provide onsite and remote video and audio surveillance. We generate revenue through the sale and installation of surveillance systems and the sale of maintenance agreements.

Our company was formed in October 2006.  Immediately thereafter we acquired Ralston Communication Services and Meeting Technologies from DirectView, Inc., a Nevada corporation of which Mr. and Mrs. Ralston were officers and directors immediately prior to such acquisition, in exchange for the assumption by us of these subsidiaries working capital deficiencies and any and all trade credit and other liabilities.  Both of these entities had historically provided the video conferencing services we continue to provide.  Thereafter, in February 2007 we formed DirectView Security Systems, Inc.  and in July 2007 we formed DirectView Video. Directview Security began offering services and products immediately from inception.

Our net sales are not sufficient to fund our operating expenses.  We have relied upon funds from the issuance of notes, the sale of common stock and advances from our executive officers to provide working capital to our company.  These funds, however, are not sufficient to pay all of our expenses nor to provide the additional capital we believe is necessary to permit us to market our company in an effort to increase our sales.  We are always looking for opportunities with new dealers, and plan to evaluate the market for our products throughout 2010 to determine whether we should hire additional employees in our sales force. We seek to establish brand identity for our company, communicate our brand and its values to investors and customers, build a relationship and reinforce existing relationships and further trigger recognition through telemarketing and hiring additional sales people to our sales staff. We believe that these strategies will provide an avenue for us to increase consumer usage of our technology, increase demand for our products and generate revenues. No assurance can be provided that we will successfully implement our strategy. We are subject to significant business risks and may need to raise additional capital in order to realize and effectuate the above strategy.

                As a privately held company, our experience has demonstrated that our ability to raise capital is generally limited.  Following the effectiveness of our registration statement, we became subject to the reporting obligations of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and require us to file quarterly and annual reports, among other filings, with the Securities and Exchange Commission, and we hope to obtain a quotation of our common stock on the OTC Bulletin Board.  We believe that both of these actions will increase our opportunities to raise the necessary capital to continue our business in that there will be public information available on our company and our financial condition and a trading market for our common stock.  There are no assurances, however, that our assumption is correct.  We may not be successful in obtaining the quotation of our common stock on the OTC Bulletin Board and even if we are successful there are no assurances a meaningful market for our common stock will develop.  The uncertainty in the capital markets, the small size of our company and the low barriers to entry in our market make our company less attractive to prospective investors and we may never be successful in raising the needed capital.  In addition, our operating expense will increase in future periods because we will incur higher professional fees to comply with the reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.  If we are unable to raise the necessary capital, we will not be able to expand our business and our ability to continue as a going concern will be in jeopardy.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our financial statements and accompanying notes are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. Preparing financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses. These estimates and assumptions are affected by management's applications of accounting policies. Critical accounting policies for our company include revenue recognition and accounting for stock based compensation.

Revenue Recognition

We follow the guidance of the Securities and Exchange Commission's Staff Accounting Bulletin 104 for revenue recognition. In general, we record revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, services have been rendered or product delivery has occurred, the sales price to the customer is fixed or determinable, and collectibility is reasonably assured. When a customer order contains multiple items such as hardware, software, and services which are delivered at varying times, we determine whether the delivered items can be considered separate units of accounting. Delivered items should be considered separate units of accounting if delivered items have value to the customer on a standalone basis, there is objective and reliable evidence of the fair value of undelivered items, and if delivery of undelivered items is probable and substantially in our control. The following policies reflect specific criteria for our various revenues streams:

 
Revenue is recognized upon completion of conferencing services. We generally do not charge up-front fees and bill our customers based on usage.

 
Revenue for video equipment sales and security surveillance equipment sales is recognized upon delivery and installation.

 
Revenue from periodic maintenance agreements is generally recognized ratably over the respective maintenance periods provided no significant obligations remain and collectibility of the related receivable is probable.

             Stock based Compensation

             In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, issued FASB ASC Topic 718: Compensation – Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”). Under ASC 718, companies are required to measure the compensation costs of share-based compensation arrangements based on the grant-date fair value and recognize the costs in the financial statements over the period during which employees are required to provide services. Share-based compensation arrangements include stock options, restricted share plans, performance-based awards, share appreciation rights and employee share purchase plans. Companies may elect to apply this statement either prospectively, or on a modified version of retrospective application under which financial statements for prior periods are adjusted on a basis consistent with the pro forma disclosures required for those periods under ASC 718. Upon adoption of ASC 718, the Company elected to value employee stock options using the Black-Scholes option valuation method that uses assumptions that relate to the expected volatility of the Company’s common stock, the expected dividend yield of our stock, the expected life of the options and the risk free interest rate. Such compensation amounts, if any, are amortized over the respective vesting periods or period of service of the option grant.

Use of Estimates
 
The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make 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 net sales and expenses during the reporting periods. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and assumptions. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other factors that we believe are 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.

Account Receivable

We have a policy of reserving for uncollectible accounts based on its best estimate of the amount of probable credit losses in its existing accounts receivable.  We periodically review our accounts receivable to determine whether an allowance is necessary based on an analysis of past due accounts and other factors that may indicate that the realization of an account may be in doubt.  Account balances deemed to be uncollectible are charged to the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote.

Inventories

Inventories, consisting of finished goods related to our products are stated at the lower of cost or market utilizing the first-in, first-out method.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are carried at cost. The cost of repairs and maintenance is expensed as incurred; major replacements and improvements are capitalized.  When assets are retired or disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts, and any resulting gains or losses are included in income in the year of disposition.  The Company examines the possibility of decreases in the value of fixed assets when events or changes in circumstances reflect the fact that their recorded value may not be recoverable. Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the assets.

Income Taxes

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method as prescribed by ASC Topic 740: Income Taxes (“ASC 740”). It requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in our financial statements or tax returns. The charge for taxation is based on the results for the year as adjusted for items, which are non-assessable or disallowed. It is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date.
 
Deferred tax is accounted for using the balance sheet liability method in respect of temporary differences arising from differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding tax basis used in the computation of assessable tax profit. In principle, deferred tax liabilities are recognized for all taxable temporary differences, and deferred tax assets are recognized to the extent that it is probably that taxable profit will be available against which deductible temporary differences can be utilized.

Deferred tax is calculated using tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realized or the liability is settled. Deferred tax is charged or credited in the income statement, except when it is related to items credited or charged directly to equity, in which case the deferred tax is also dealt with in equity.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when they relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority and we intend to settle our current tax assets and liabilities on a net basis.

Pursuant to accounting standards related to the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes, a tax position is recognized as a benefit only if it is “more likely than not” that the tax position would be sustained in a tax examination, with a tax examination being presumed to occur. The amount recognized is the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized on examination. For tax positions not meeting the “more likely than not” test, no tax benefit is recorded. The adoption had no effect on our financial statements.

Recent accounting pronouncements 

In June 2009, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2009-01, “Generally Accepted Accounting Principles” (ASC Topic 105) which establishes the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“the Codification” or “ASC”) as the official single source of authoritative U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). All existing accounting standards are superseded. All other accounting guidance not included in the Codification will be considered non-authoritative. The Codification also includes all relevant Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) guidance organized using the same topical structure in separate sections within the Codification.

Following the Codification, the Board will not issue new standards in the form of Statements, FASB Staff Positions or Emerging Issues Task Force Abstracts. Instead, it will issue Accounting Standards Updates (“ASU”) which will serve to update the Codification, provide background information about the guidance and provide the basis for conclusions on the changes to the Codification.

The Codification is not intended to change GAAP, but it will change the way GAAP is organized and presented. The Codification is effective for our third-quarter 2009 financial statements and the principal impact on our financial statements is limited to disclosures as all future references to authoritative accounting literature will be referenced in accordance with the Codification.

In May 2009, the FASB issued (ASC Topic 855), “Subsequent Events” (ASC Topic 855). This guidance is intended to establish general standards of accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or available to be issued. It is effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009.  The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In June 2009, the FASB issued ASC Topic 810-10, “Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R)”.

The amendments in this ASU are effective prospectively for revenue arrangements entered into or materially modified in the fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010. Early application is permitted. We are currently evaluating this new ASU.

In October 2009, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-14, “Certain Revenue Arrangements That Include Software Elements.” This ASU changes the accounting model for revenue arrangements that include both tangible products and software elements that are “essential to the functionality,” and scopes these products out of current software revenue guidance.

In January 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2010-06, “Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements” an amendment to ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures.”  This amendment requires an entity to: (i) disclose separately the amounts of significant transfers in and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements and describe the reasons for the transfers and (ii) present separate information for Level 3 activity pertaining to gross purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements.  ASU No. 2010-06 is effective for the Company for interim and annual reporting beginning after December 15, 2009, with one new disclosure effective after December 15, 2010. The adoption of ASU No. 2010-06 did not have a material impact on the results of operations and financial condition.

Other accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by FASB that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements upon adoption.

Net sales of our videoconference services for the three months ended March 31, 2010 decreased approximately 79% as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2009.   Revenue was down substantially, on reduced videoconference product sales. Videoconference product revenue fell during the three months ended March 31, 2010 because we have focus our efforts on our security service operations. We also believe that the current economic downturn of the economy has negatively affected our videoconferencing operations.
 
Net sales of security services for the three months ended March 31, 2010 increased by approximately 100% as compared to the same period in 2009. During the three months ended March 31, 2010, four new customers accounted for approximately 92% of our total revenues.  These clients accounted for revenues of approximately $305,000, representing approximately 92% of our consolidated revenues during the three months ended March 31, 2010. In December 2009, we entered into a one year subcontractor agreement with these three clients.

Additionally, we experienced increased competition from competitors that sell similar products. We believe that the current economic downturn of the economy has negatively affected our revenues.  In an effort to increase our sales in future periods, we need to hire additional sales staff to initiate a telemarketing campaign and we need to obtain leads from various lead sources such as lead generating telemarketing lists, email marketing campaigns and other sources. However, given our lack of working capital, we cannot assure that we will ever be able to successfully implement our current business strategy or increase our revenues in future periods. Although we recognized sales during the three months ended March 31, 2010, there can be no assurances that we will continue to recognize similar revenues in the future.

Cost of sales

Cost of sales for video conferencing services includes product and delivery costs relating to the delivery of videoconference products.  Cost of sales for security services includes product cost and installation/labor cost. Overall, cost of sales as a percentage of revenues decreased approximately 12% for the three months ended March 31, 2010 from the comparable period in 2009.  The following table provides information on the cost of sales as a percentage of net sales for the three months period ended March 31, 2010 and 2009:

               During the three months ended March 31, 2010, our cost of sales for our videoconferencing division as a percentage of net sales decreased as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2009. Our cost of sales for our videoconferencing division decreased due to decreased revenues as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2009.

During the three months ended March 31, 2010, our cost of sales for our security division as a percentage of net sales increased as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2009. The increase is primarily attributable to increased labor cost during three months ended March 31, 2010 as compared to the same period in 2009. We hired 15 technicians as compared to 2 technicians during the same period in fiscal 2009. The increase in cost of sales for our security division reflects the increase in security service revenues during the three months ended March 31, 2010.

Total operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2010 were $221,150, an increase of $94,506, or approximately 75%, from total operating expenses for the comparable three months ended March 31, 2009 of $126,644. This decrease is primarily attributable to:

                •           a decrease of $1,251, or 94%, in depreciation expense. During fiscal 2009, the Company has fully depreciated the leasehold improvements due to the abandonment by the Company of the lease office space;

•           an increase of $90,139 or 125%, in compensation expense during the three months ended March 31, 2010, which is primarily attributable to the increase in full time employees of our security division hired in December 2009 and increase compensation level of our CEO beginning in January 2010;

•           an increase of $5,618 or  11%, during the three months ended March 31, 2010,  in other selling, general and administrative expenses as  summarized below:

The increase in other selling, general and administrative expenses is primarily attributable to the following changes in these expenses from the three months ended March 31, 2010 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2009:

1)  Auto expenses increased by $7,387 or 562% during the three months period March 31, 2010 as a result of increased auto insurance expense and fuel expenses.

2) Health insurance expense slightly decreased by $427 or 8% during the three months period March 31, 2010.
 
3) Telephone and communications expenses increased by $4,626 or 56% during the three months period March 31, 2010 as a result of increase in operations of our security service division .
 
4) Travel and entertainment expenses increased by $14,002 or 430% during the three months period March 31, 2010, due to increased sales-related travel.
 
5) Other selling, general and administrative expenses, which includes professional fees, rent expense, postage, general insurance, and office supplies, utilities and expenses decreased overall by $19,970 or 57% during the three months period March 31, 2010, primarily attributable to a decrease in audit and rental fees.

We presently anticipate that operating expenses for the remainder of fiscal 2010 will increase as a result of becoming a public company and due to increased operations in our security division, subject to our ability to generate operating capital.

Loss from operations

We reported a loss from operations of $119,659 for the three months ended March 31, 2010 as compared to a loss from operations of $120,118 for the three months ended March 31, 2009.

Other Income (Expenses)

Total other income (expense) was ($30,334) for the three months ended March 31, 2010 as compared to other income (expense) of $35,459 for the three months ended March 31, 2009. An increase of other expense of $65,793 for the three months ended March 31, 2010 is primarily attributable to:

•           $16,710 and $38,345 of other income for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively, was attributable to the reduction of accounts payable over four years old that management has deemed forgiven;

•           An increase of $40,705 in interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2010 as compared to the same periods in 2009 which is primarily attributable to the fair value of common stock issued in connection with notes payable amounting to $36,654 during the three months ended March 31, 2010.

Net loss

We reported a net loss of $149,993 for the three months ended March 31, 2010, as compared to a net loss of $84,659 for the three months ended March 31, 2009.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity is the ability of a company to generate funds to support its current and future operations, satisfy its obligations, and otherwise operate on an ongoing basis. At March 31, 2010, we had a cash balance of $21,439. Our working capital deficit is $1,318,165 at March 31, 2010.
 
 
We reported a net decrease in cash for the three months ended March 31, 2010 of $49,971. While we currently have no material commitments for capital expenditures, at March 31, 2010 we owed $82,000 under various notes payable.  During the three months ended March 31, 2010, we have raised an additional $198,014 through the sale of our securities and $21,489 from debts. We do not presently have any external sources of working capital.

At March 31, 2010 we owed Mr. and Mrs. Michele Ralston, executive officers and directors of our company $143,774 for amounts they have advanced to us for working capital.  Of this amount, $29,626 and $4,900 which is owed to Mr. Roger Ralston and Mrs. Michele Ralston, respectively are short-term and non-interest bearing. Due on demand notes payable aggregating $25,000 and a $22,000 note payable maturing in June 2010 plus accrued interest of $5,023 is owed to Mr. Ralston which bears interest at 12%, and the remaining $57,225, which includes accrued interest is due Mrs. Michele Ralston under a note bearing interest at 3% per annum and due in July 2010.

Accrued liabilities as of March 31, 2010 consist of the following:
 
·        Accrued salaries to our officers and certain employees amounting to $564,277
·        Accrued commissions to certain employees amounting to $60,590
·        Accrued payroll taxes including interest and penalties of $59,635
·        Sales tax payable of $16,680
·        Lease abandonment charges of $132,473
·        Accrued expenses of $7,616

              Our net sales are not sufficient to fund our operating expenses.  We will need to raise significant additional capital to fund our operating expenses, pay our obligations, and grow our company. We reported a net loss of $149,993 and $84,659 during the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.  At March 31, 2010 we had a working capital deficit of $1,318,165.  We do not anticipate we will be profitable in fiscal 2010.  Therefore our future operations will be dependent on our ability to secure additional financing.  We will be required to raise additional capital to fund our future operations within the next 12 months. Furthermore we have debt obligations, which must be satisfied.  If we are successful in securing additional working capital, we intend to increase our marketing efforts to grow our revenues.  We do not presently have any firm commitments for any additional capital and our financial condition as well as the uncertainty in the capital markets may make our ability to secure this capital difficult. There are no assurances that we will be able to continue our business, and we may be forced to cease operations in which event investors could lose their entire investment in our company. Included in our Notes to the financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2010 is a discussion regarding Going Concern.

Net cash flows used in operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2009 amounted to $30,767 and was primarily attributable to our net losses of $84,659, offset by depreciation of $1,327, and total changes in assets and liabilities of $52,565.

ITEM 4T. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

                Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. We maintain "disclosure controls and procedures" as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, our management recognized that disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of disclosure controls and procedures are met. Additionally, in designing disclosure controls and procedures, our management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible disclosure controls and procedures. The design of any disclosure controls and procedures 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. Under the supervision and with the participation of our CEO and CFO, or the persons performing similar functions, our management has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report.  Based on that evaluation, our CEO and CFO, has concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective in providing reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods prescribed by SEC rules and regulations, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
