“forward-looking statements”, which can be identified by use of terms such as
“may”, “could”, “should”, “expect”, “plan”, “project”, “intend”, “anticipate”,
“believe”, “estimate”, “predict”, “potential”, “pursue”, “target” or “continue”,
the negative of such terms or other comparable terminology, although some
forward-looking statements may be expressed differently.
The
forward-looking statements contained in this Annual Report are largely based on
our expectations, which reflect estimates and assumptions made by our
management. These estimates and assumptions reflect our best judgment based on
currently known market conditions and other factors. Although we believe such
estimates and assumptions to be reasonable, they are inherently uncertain and
involve a number of risks and uncertainties that are beyond our control. In
addition, management’s assumptions about future events may prove to be
inaccurate. Management cautions all readers that the forward-looking statements
contained in this Annual Report are not guarantees of future performance, and we
cannot assure any reader that such statements will be realized or the
forward-looking events and circumstances will occur. Actual results may differ
materially from those anticipated or implied in the forward-looking statements
due to various factors listed in this Annual Report. All forward-looking
statements speak only as of the date of this Annual Report. We do not intend to

General
Overview.
Advanced
Voice Recognition Systems, Inc. (the “Company”, “we” or “us”), was incorporated
in the State of Nevada on August 31, 2005 as Samoyed Energy Corp., an oil and
gas company. In May 2008, we consummated a stock exchange with the shareholders
of Advanced Voice Recognition Systems, Inc., a Colorado corporation (“AVRS”),
and consequently, AVRS became our wholly-owned subsidiary. In May 2008, we also
transferred our oil and gas assets to Stone Canyon Resources, Inc. In June 2008,
AVRS merged with and into us and we changed our name to “Advanced Voice
Recognition Systems, Inc.” As a result of the stock exchange and the transfer of
our oil and gas assets, our current operations are those of AVRS, and our fiscal
year became that of AVRS and now ends on December 31st.
Our
common stock has been quoted on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board, also
referred to as the OTCBB, since April 2007. Prior to June 19, 2008, our ticker
symbol was “SMYD”, and on June 19, 2008, following our name change, our ticker
symbol changed to “AVOI”. Our website is located at www.avrsys.com.
AVRS was
incorporated on July 7, 2005. In May 2000, WG Investments, LLC, a Colorado
limited liability company formed that same year, acquired all of the assets of
NCC, Inc., an Ohio corporation, and all rights, title and interests in and to
U.S. Patent #5,960,447. Promptly following the acquisition, the members of WG
Investments, LLC voted to change its name to NCC, LLC. In 2005, the members of
NCC, LLC exchanged their membership interests in NCC, LLC for shares of common
stock of AVRS.
On March
25, 2009, we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (“Agreement and Plan
of Merger”) with our wholly-owned subsidiary, NCC, LLC, a Colorado limited
liability company, whereby NCC, LLC merged with and into us pursuant to Section
92A.180 of the Nevada Business Corporations Act. Upon consummation of the
Agreement and Plan of Merger; (i) NCC, LLC ceased to exist; (ii) our member
interests in NCC, LLC automatically were canceled or retired and ceased to
exist, without any consideration delivered in exchange thereof; (iii) the title
to all estate, property rights privileges, powers and franchise assets and/or
other rights owned by NCC, LLC became vested in us without reversion or
impairment; and (iv) all liabilities of any kind of NCC, LLC became vested in
us. As a result, we own U.S. Patent #5,960,447. Additionally,
we own U.S. Patent #7,558,730.
We are a
software development company headquartered in Scottsdale, Arizona, with an
office in Mitchell, South Dakota. We specialize in creating interface and
application solutions for speech recognition technologies. Our speech
recognition software and related firmware was first introduced in 1994 at an
industry trade show. We currently have limited capital
resources. We are not currently engaged in marketing any
products. Our principal assets are our patents. Our
business strategy will be to attempt to interest other companies in entering
into license agreements or other strategic relationships and to support and
defend our patents through infringement and interference proceedings, as
appropriate.
1
Industry
Overview
We
believe that speech recognition technology has a multitude of potential
applications, and that automatic speech recognition (ASR) products have not
provided an effective solution.
Speech
recognition technology, which provides for the conversion of speech into written
text, is the threshold feature of our solutions. Our technology focuses on
improving speech recognition technology by increasing speech conversion
precision, with the goal of achieving near 100% accuracy and allowing the user
to speak naturally. We also focus on improving user productivity and
profitability by enabling the user to effectively utilize the written text
produced by speech recognition technology (the End-Text) in multiple
applications specific to the user’s business purposes and goals.
We
believe our main competitors are Microsoft, Nuance, IBM, and Google Voice. We
also will compete with several smaller niche suppliers. We intend to
differentiate our solutions from those of our competitors by focusing on
efficient correction using traditional methods that will minimize the burden on
the user.
Principal
Proposed Products or Services
We are in
the development stage and have not achieved any revenues from product sales. In
addition, we will need substantial additional capital to achieve our marketing
objectives as described below.
Speech
Recognition Software and Related Firmware
Our
principal proposed product is speech recognition software and related firmware
which allows for dictation into a broad range of applications, including DOS
applications running in Windows, UNIX and mainframe applications accessed
through terminal emulation programs, various custom applications , and all
Windows 3.x, 95, 98, 2000, XP and Vista programs. Through this product, we seek
to provide full functionality including audio proofreading, deferred and
delegated correction and additional capabilities that we believe are not
available with other products. This product allows for deferred dictation, where
the text is saved with the associated audio, and the users can resume when
stopped and can play back dictated content. Similarly, the recognized text and
associated audio can be saved to be used when text is corrected.
AVRS Enterprise
Solutions
Through
our AVRS Enterprise™ solutions utilizing the speech recognition software and
related firmware, we hope to provide exceptional ease of use, security,
scalability, centralized system administration, and flexible and efficient
communications. We believe that the primary benefit that our AVRS Enterprise™
solutions will offer is the elimination of typing and the efficient use of
personnel for correction and proofreading. We believe that dictation rates of
over 300 words per minute are attainable through the three components of our
speech recognition software and related firmware: Transaction Manager,
Transcription Server, and the Dictation/Correction Assistant
Clients. Additionally, AVRS Enterprise™ Solutions may provide useful
in mobile search and voicemail to text.
Market
We intend
to target vertical markets that require individuals and organizations to create
reports, letters, e-mail, data entry, manuals, books, and virtually any other
document or end product involving written data. These organizations include
corporations, hospitals, medical product and service providers, governmental
entities, legal professionals, sales and service organizations law enforcement
agencies and mobile search and voicemail to text.
Medical
Market
We
principally intend to target the medical industry, which we believe presently
has the highest level of individuals utilizing dictation methods to assist in
satisfying reporting requirements and documentation needs. We intend to focus
sales and marketing efforts on existing local and regional medical
transcription, medical billing and equipment companies.
Legal, Law
Enforcement, Insurance and Sales Markets
In
addition to the medical field, we plan to concurrently target the legal
profession, law enforcement, insurance and sales automation markets, which we
believe have automatic dictation needs similar to those in the medical
industry.
Original
Equipment Manufacturer (OEM)
We
anticipate that we will work with the OEM markets, targeting both software
developers and hardware manufacturers. We may approach the larger OEM companies
with a joint marketing approach strategy while using a direct sale basis to
approach small and medium-sized OEMs.
2
Hardware
Manufacturers
We also
anticipate targeting hardware manufacturers, both on a direct basis and through
joint sales and marketing programs. We intend to offer technology and patent
licenses to manufacturers of medical devices, digital dictation systems,
recorders, workstation PCs, mobile phones, PDAs, WAPs, and intelligent
electronics. Alternatively, we may offer these manufacturers limited versions of
our speech recognition software and related firmware product line for embedding
into hardware. We expect to develop joint sales and marketing programs for
mainframe, thin-client, telephony and other large hardware processing
systems.
Distribution
Product
development of the speech recognition software and related firmware was the
primary focus for the first six years following its introduction into the
software market. Early forms of the speech recognition software and related
firmware were marketed through a network of approximately 200 small dealers
specializing in speech recognition technology.
Our
business model has been revised and we plan to collect royalty payments based on
actual usage of the speech recognition software and related firmware in various
applications, and to implement our marketing strategy using the following
marketing vehicles:

Intellectual
Property
Our
primary assets are United States Patent # 5,960,447 and United States Patent
#7,558,730. U.S. Patent #5,960,447 is for a word tagging and editing
system for speech recognition filed on November 13, 1995 and issued on September
28, 1999. In accordance with 35 USC 154, the term for the above-referenced
patent began on September 28, 1999 and ends 20 years from the date on which the
application for the patent was filed in the United States. Therefore, the patent
will expire on November 13, 2015.
A word
tagging and editing system for speech recognition receives recognized speech
text from a speech recognition engine, and creates tagging information that
follows the speech text as it is received by a word processing program or other
program. The body of text to be edited in connection with the word processing
program may be selected and cut and pasted and otherwise manipulated, and the
tags follow within the audio data file created initially by the speech
recognition engine. The sound bite may be replayed to the user through a
speaker. The practical results include that the user may confirm the correctness
of a particular recognized word, in real time whilst editing text in the word
processor. If the recognition is manually corrected, the correction information
may be supplied to the engine for use in updating a user profile for the user
who dictated the audio that was recognized. Particular tagging approaches are
employed depending on the particular word processor being used.
U.S.
Patent #5,960,447 includes 42 claims covering an extremely broad base of
features applicable to existing ASR products and markets. We intend to take full
advantage of our patent protection by licensing or otherwise.
The
U.S. Patent Office issued U.S. Patent # 7,558,730 titled, “Speech Recognition
and Transcription Among Users Having Heterogeneous Protocols”, filed on November
27, 2001 and issued on July 7, 2009. In accordance with 35 USC 154,
the term for the above referenced patent began on July 7, 2009 and ends 20 years
from the date on which the application for the patent was filed in the United
States. Therefore, the patent will expire on November 27,
2021. The invention discloses a system for facilitating speech
recognition and transcription among users employing incompatible protocols for
generating, transcribing, and exchanging speech. The patent is expected to
strengthen our position in voice recognition.
We are
involved in a patent interference, in the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office,
claiming our ownership of the subject matter of a third party’s
patent.
Research
and Development
During
fiscal years 2009 and 2008, we did not incur any expense for research and
development activities.

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation.
The following discussion and
analysis should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial
statements and related notes included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form
10-K. This document contains certain forward-looking statements that involve
risks and uncertainties, such as statements of the Company’s plans, objectives,
expectations and intentions. When used in this document, the words “expects”,
“anticipates”, “intends” and “plans” and similar expressions are intended to
identify certain of these forward-looking statements. The cautionary statements
made in this document should be read as being applicable to all related
forward-looking statements wherever they appear in this document. Our actual
results could differ materially from those discussed in this
document.
Results
of Operation
We
completed a stock exchange on May 19, 2008 and changed our business model. We
have not generated any revenue since inception and do not have any cash
generating product or licensing sales. We are a development stage enterprise
that has incurred losses since inception.
At
December 31, 2009, we had current assets of $20,961, and current liabilities of
$394,090, as compared to $22,627 current assets and $297,559 in current
liabilities at December 31, 2008. Our decrease in current assets is attributable
to operating expenses. Our increase in current liabilities primarily is due to a
promissory note to a related party and an increase in Accounts
Payable.
We had a
net loss of $456,568 for the year ended December 31, 2009, as compared to a net
loss of $431,022 for the year ended December 31, 2008. The increase in net loss
is attributable to increased contributed services and professional fees incurred
in conjunction with the issuance of the second patent and our efforts to
implement our business plan.
Liquidity
and Capital Resources
During
the year ended December 31, 2009, we used $123,461 of cash in operating
activities and $4,635 of cash in investing activities, and received $128,430 of
cash provided by financing activities. As a result, for the year ended December
31, 2009, we recognized a $334 net increase in cash on hand. For the year ended
December 31, 2008, we used $278,692 of cash in operating activities and $10,634
cash in investing activities, and received $291,953 of cash provided by
financing activities, resulting in a $2,627 increase in cash on hand for the
year.
During
the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, our president has loaned or advanced
to us funds for working capital on an “as needed” basis. There is no assurance
that these loans or advances will continue in the future. Because of our history
of losses, net capital deficit and lack of assurance of additional financing,
the audit report on our financial statements contains a “going concern” opinion
regarding doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
In an
attempt to address our financing needs, on September 24, 2008, we entered into a
purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Lion Share Capital, LLC
(“Lion Share”) for the sale to Lion Share of 16,000,000 shares of our common
stock, and we received a $5,000,000 note (the “Note”) from Lion Share. If we
receive payments on the Note, our liquidity may increase. However, there is no
assurance that we will be successful in obtaining payments on the note from Lion
Share. Subsequently, on January 11, 2010, the Company
terminated the Purchase Agreement and no payments were made by Lion Share on the
Note. The Company has foreclosed on the collateral and cancelled the
Note.

U.S.
Patent #5,960,447 includes 42 claims that we believe cover an extremely broad
base of features applicable to existing ASR products and markets. We intend to
use our patent protection to our advantage by licensing or otherwise. If our
licensing and other efforts prove successful, our liquidity may
increase.
U.S.
Patent #7,558,730 expands an extremely broad base of features in speech
recognition and transcription across heterogeneous protocols. The
deferred costs totaling $58,277 have been capitalized and amortized began in the
third quarter 2009
We
anticipate that our president will be responsible for our near-term working
capital requirements. In addition, we anticipate conducting one or more
financings to raise working capital, which may or may not be
successful.
If we
continue to pursue interference proceedings, or initiate or defend infringement
actions, we would expect to incur substantial costs and legal fees that
ultimately may not be recoverable.
We will
require additional debt or equity financing or a combination of both in order to
carry out our business plan. We plan to raise additional funds through future
sales of our securities, until such time as our revenues are sufficient to meet
our cost structure, and ultimately achieve profitable operations. There is no
assurance we will be successful in raising additional capital or achieving
profitable operations. Our board of directors may attempt to use non-cash
consideration to satisfy obligations that may consist of restricted shares of
our common stock. These actions would result in dilution of the ownership
interests of existing shareholders and may further dilute our common stock book
value.
To obtain
sufficient funds to meet our future needs for capital, we will from time to
time, evaluate opportunities to raise financing through some combination of the
private sale of equity, or issuance of convertible debt securities. However,
future equity or debt financing may not be available to us at all, or if
available, may not be on terms acceptable to us. We do not intend to pay
dividends to shareholders in the foreseeable future.
In order
for our operations to continue, we will need to generate revenues from our
intended operations sufficient to meet our anticipated cost structure. We may
encounter difficulties in establishing these operations due to our inability to
successfully prosecute any patent enforcement actions or our inability to
effectively execute our business plan.
If we do
not raise additional capital, or we are unable to obtain additional financing,
or begin to generate revenues from our intended operations, we may have to scale
back or postpone the development and marketing of our products or the
enforcement of our patent rights until such financing is available.

REPORT
OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
The Board
of Directors and Shareholders
Advanced
Voice Recognition Systems, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Advanced Voice Recognition Systems, Inc. as of December 31, 2009 and 2008, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ deficit, and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, and the period from March 15, 1994 (inception) through December 31, 2009. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.
We
conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company
Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan
and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company
is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its
internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of
internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit
procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of
expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control
over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also
includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and
disclosures in the consolidated financial statements, assessing the accounting
principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our
audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our
opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly,
in all material respects, the financial position of Advanced Voice Recognition
Systems, Inc. as of December 31, 2009 and 2008, and the results of their
operations and their cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008,
and the period from March 15, 1994 (inception) through December 31, 2009 in
conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America.
The
accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the
Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to
the financial statements, the Company is a development stage enterprise that has
incurred losses since inception and, at December 31, 2009, has a net capital
deficit. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s
ability to continue as a going concern. Further information and
management’s plans in regard to this uncertainty are also described in Note
2. The consolidated financial statements do not include any
adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

in the industry’s markets caused NCC, LLC to suspend its
operations.
AVRS was
incorporated in the State of Colorado on July 7, 2005. In September 2005, the
members of NCC, LLC transferred all of their membership interests in NCC, LLC to
AVRS in exchange for 93,333,333 shares (post-recapitalization) of AVRS common
stock. In December 2005, the Board of Directors approved a 1.5-to-1 stock split
issuing 46,666,667 common shares (post-recapitalization), which increased the
number of common shares outstanding to 140,000,000 shares (post-capitalization).
Following the incorporation of AVRS, the Company initiated a new business plan
and intends to continue its operations in the voice recognition and
transcription industry.
AVRS
specializes in creating interface and application solutions for speech
recognition technologies. AVRS has successfully obtained patent protection of
its proprietary technology (refer to Note 3, Intangible Assets). The Company is
focusing its technologies for the medical profession because of the profession’s
present extensive use of dictation and its need for multiple applications of
speech recognition technology in the generation of reports, documents and
medical bills. Additionally the Company will focus the mobile search and
voicemail to text market.
The
Company is a development stage enterprise in accordance with Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 7, “Accounting and Reporting by
Development Stage Enterprises” now referred to as ACS 915 “Development Stage
Entities”. The Company has been in the development stage since
inception.
Stock
Exchange Agreement
On April
28, 2008, the Company entered into a Stock Exchange Agreement with Samoyed
Energy Corp., a Nevada corporation (“Samoyed”), which resulted in a reverse
acquisition.
The
Agreement provided for the reorganization of AVRS with Samoyed. In connection
with the Agreement, Samoyed acquired all of the issued and outstanding common
shares of AVRS in exchange for 140,000,000 shares of Samoyed’s common stock. At
the closing of the Agreement, the former shareholders of AVRS owned
approximately 85% of the outstanding common stock of Samoyed, resulting in a
change in control.
For
accounting purposes, this acquisition has been treated as a reverse acquisition
and recapitalization of AVRS, with Samoyed the legal surviving entity. Since
Samoyed had, prior to the recapitalization, minimal assets and limited
operations, the recapitalization has been accounted for as the sale of
24,700,008 shares of AVRS common stock for the net liabilities of Samoyed.
Therefore, the historical financial information prior to the date of the
recapitalization is the financial information of AVRS. Costs of the transaction
have been charged to the period in which they are incurred.
On May
19, 2008, pursuant to the Stock Exchange Agreement, the Company’s shareholders
exchanged with, and transferred to Samoyed, all of the issued and outstanding
shares of their capital stock. In exchange, Samoyed exchanged with, and issued
to, the Company’s shareholders 85% (140,000,000 shares) of Samoyed’s common
stock. In connection with the closing of the Stock Exchange
Agreement:
•

Samoyed
delivered to AVRS fully executed documents sufficient to evidence the
transfer to Stone Canyon Resources, Inc. (“Stone Canyon”) of all of
Samoyed’s oil and gas assets, as well as all of the liabilities related to
those oil and gas assets, in exchange for the 22,749,998 shares of
Samoyed’s common stock then owned by Stone Canyon, which transfer was
completed immediately following the closing of the Stock Exchange
Agreement. This transfer resulted in the Samoyed shareholders owning
24,700,008 shares of AVRS common
stock.

deliver to the Company an aggregate of $478,606 on or before April 30,
2010, or in the alternative, tender to Company for cancellation 6.45

Note
2. Significant Accounting Policies
Going
Concern
The
accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis,
which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities
in the normal course of business. As shown in the accompanying financial
statements, the Company is a development stage enterprise with losses since
inception and a net capital deficit. These factors, among others, may indicate
that the Company will be unable to continue as a going concern for reasonable
period of time.
The
financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the
recoverability and classification of assets and liabilities that might be
necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. The
Company’s continuation as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to
generate sufficient cash flow to meet its obligations on a timely basis and
ultimately to attain profitability. During the years ended December 31, 2009 and
2008, the Company’s president has loaned or advanced the Company funds for
working capital on an “as needed” basis. There is no assurance that these loans
or advances will continue in the future. As a condition to closing
the Stock Exchange Agreement with Samoyed on May 19, 2008, the Company and one
of its shareholders agreed that the shareholder would provide funds to the
Company, or in the alternative tender certain of his shares of the Company’s
common stock for cancellation.
Use of
Estimates
The
preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management 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 and
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Basis of
Consolidation
The
consolidated financial statements include our accounts and those of our
wholly-owned subsidiaries, NCC, LLC. Intercompany transactions and balances have
been eliminated. The accounts, results of operations and cash flows of acquired
companies are included from their respective acquisition
dates.
Cash and Cash
Equivalents
The
Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments with original maturities of
three months or less when acquired to be cash equivalents. The Company had cash
and cash equivalents at December 31, 2009 of $2,961, and $2,627 cash or cash
equivalents at December 31, 2008.
Financial
Instruments
The
carrying amounts of cash, receivables and current liabilities approximate fair
value due to the short-term maturity of the instruments.
Fixed
Assets
Fixed
assets are stated at cost. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line
method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets, ranging from three
to five years. Expenditures for additions and improvements are capitalized,
while repairs and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred. The cost and
related accumulated depreciation of property and equipment sold or otherwise
disposed of are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is recorded in
the year of disposal.
Revenue
Recognition
Revenue
from the sale of inventory is recognized on the date of sale, title and risk of
loss have transferred to the purchaser, the fees are fixed or determinable and
collection is reasonably assured. Revenue from the performance of services is
recognized when services have been completed and collection is probable. There
are no multiple element sales and no history of material returns.
Income
Taxes
Income
taxes are provided for the tax effects of transactions reported in the financial
statements and consist of taxes currently due plus deferred taxes related
primarily to differences between the recorded book basis and the tax basis of
assets and liabilities for financial and income tax reporting. Deferred tax
assets and liabilities represent the future tax return consequences of those
differences, which will either be taxable or deductible when the assets and
liabilities are recovered or settled. Deferred taxes are also recognized for
operating losses that are available to offset future taxable income and tax
credits that are available to offset future federal income taxes. The
Company believes that its income tax filing positions and deductions will be
sustained on audit and does not anticipate any adjustments that will result in a
material adverst effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of
operations, or cash flow. Therefore, no reserves for uncertain income
tax positions have been recorded pursuant to ASC 740. The Company did
not record a cumulative effect adjustment related to the adoption of ASC
740.
17
Research and
Development Costs
Research
and development costs are expensed in the period incurred.
Patents, Deferred
Costs and Amortization
Patents
consist of costs incurred to acquire issued patents. Amortization commences once
a patent is granted. Costs incurred to acquire patents that have not been issued
are reported as deferred costs. If a patent application is denied or expires,
the costs incurred are charged to operations in the year the application is
denied or expires. The Company amortizes its patents over an estimated useful
life of twenty years. The carrying value of the first patent is $63,247 with
$43,218 amortized and a balance at December 31, 2009 of $20,029. The carrying
balance of the second patent is $58,277 with $2,346 amortized and a balance at
December 31, 2009 of $ $55,931. The weighted average arrives at a
period of 13.75 years based on a period of 16.1 years for patent #1 and 12.4
years for patent #2, weighted for the total amount capitalized on each
patent. Amortization expense totaled $6,562 and $4,216 for years
ended, December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. Estimated aggregate
amortization expense for each of the next five years is as follows:

Impairment and
Disposal of Long-Lived Assets
The
Company evaluates the carrying value of its long-lived assets under the
provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (“SFAS”) No. 144,
“Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets” now referred to
as ASC 360-10 Property, Plant,
and Equipment – “Impairment or Disposal of Long Lived Assets”
subsections” . ASC 306-10 requires impairment losses to be recorded on
long-lived assets used in operations when indicators of impairment are present
and the undiscounted future cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets
are less than the assets’ carrying amount. If such assets are 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. Assets to be disposed
of are reported at the lower of the carrying value or fair value, less costs to
sell. During the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 and from
March 15, 1994 (inception) through December 31, 2009, no impairment charges were
recognized based on a review of the carrying amount of each asset to the future
undiscounted cash flows.
Loss per Common
Share
The
Company reports net loss per share using a dual presentation of basic and
diluted loss per share. Basic net loss per share excludes the impact of common
stock equivalents. Diluted net loss per share utilizes the average market price
per share when applying the treasury stock method in determining common stock
equivalents. At December 31, 2009 and 2008, there were no variances between the
basic and diluted loss per share as there were no potentially dilutive
securities outstanding.
Fair
Value of Financial Instruments
Unless
otherwise specified, the Company believes the carrying value of financial
instruments approximates their fair value.
Subsequent
Events
The
Company has evaluated all subsequent events through January 26, 2010, the date
the financial statements were issued, and no additional items were noted that
need to be disclosed (see Note 8).
Recent Accounting
Pronouncements
In June
2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 168, The FASB Accounting Standards
Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles
(“SFAS 168”), now referred to as ASC 105-10, Generally Accepted Accounting
Principles. This guidance establishes only two levels of GAAP,
authoritative and non-authoritative. This standard establishes the
Codification as the sole source of authoritative accounting principles
recognized by the FASB to be applied by non-governmental entities in the
preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP. Rules and
interpretive releases of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) under
authority of federal securities laws remain sources of authoritative GAAP for
SEC registrants. ASC 105-10 is effective for financial statements issued for
interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. The
adoption of the guidance did not have a material impact on our financial
statements.
18
In May
2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 165, Subsequent Events
(“SFAS 165”), now referred to as ASC 855-10. ASC 855-10 incorporates
accounting and disclosure requirements related to subsequent events into
U.S. GAAP. The guidance establishes general standards of accounting for and
disclosure of subsequent events that occur after the balance sheet
date. Entities are also required to disclose the date through which
subsequent events have been evaluated and the basis for that
date. The adoption of the guidance did not have a material impact on
the Company’s financial statements. The Company has evaluated
subsequent events through the date of issuance, January 18, 2010, the date these
financial statements were available to be issued. See Note 8 for more
information.
In June
2008, the EITF ratified EITF Issue No. 07-5, Determining Whether an Instrument
(or Embedded Feature) Is Indexed to an Entity’s Own Stock, now referred
to as ASC 815-40-15. ASC 815-40-15 provides guidance in assessing whether
derivative instruments meet the criteria in paragraph 11(a) of
SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities, now referred to as ASC 815, for being
considered indexed to an entity’s own common stock, which mandates a two-step
process for evaluating whether an equity –linked financial instrument or
embedded feature is indexed to the entity’s own stock.. ASC 815-40-15 is
effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15,
2008. The adoption of the guidance did not have a material impact on
the Company’s financial statements.
In May
2008, the FASB issued FSP APB 14-1, Accounting for Convertible Debt
Instruments that May be Settled in Cash upon Conversion, now referred to
as ASC 470-20. ASC 470-20 requires companies to separately account for the
liability (debt) and equity (conversion option) components of convertible debt
instruments that require or permit settlement in cash upon conversion in a
manner that reflects the issuers’ nonconvertible debt borrowing rate at the time
of issuance. ASC 470-20 is effective for fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 2008 and may not be adopted early. The adoption of the
guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial
statement.
Note
3. Intangible and Fixed Assets
Intangible
Assets
On
November 13, 1995 the Company filed a patent application with the U.S. Patent
and Trademark Office, which was granted on September 28, 1999 as patent
#5,960,447, “Word Tagging and Editing system for Speech Recognition”. In
accordance with 35 USC 154, the term for the above referenced patent shall be
for a period beginning on the date on which the patent issues and ending 20
years from the date on which the application for the patent was filed in the
United States. The above referenced U.S. Patent will expire on November 13,
2015.
The
Company monitors the anticipated outcome of legal actions, and if it determines
that the success of the defense of a patent is probable, and so long as the
Company believes that the future economic benefit of the patent will be
increased, the Company capitalizes external legal costs incurred in the defense
of the patent. Upon successful defense of litigation, the amounts previously
capitalized are amortized over the remaining life of the patent.
On July
7, 2009, Patent No.: US 7,558,730 titled “Speech Recognition and Transcription
Among Users Having Heterogeneous Protocols” was issued by the United States
Patent and Trademark Office. In accordance with 35 USC 154, the
patent shall be for a term beginning on July 7, 2009 and ending 20 years from
the application date of November 27, 2001. The patent will expire on
November 27, 2021. The deferred fees were capitalized during the
quarter ended September 30, 2009 and the Company began
amortization.

Evaluation
of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our
management, with the participation of our chief executive officer, who also is
our chief financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure
controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) and pursuant
to Rules 13a-15(b) and 15d-15(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended (the “Exchange Act”) as of December 31, 2009. Disclosure controls and
procedures are controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that
information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the
the Exchange Act, such as this Form 10-K, is recorded, processed, summarized and
reported, within the time period specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and
that such information is accumulated and is communicated to our management,
including our principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons
performing similar functions, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions
regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure
controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures,
no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance
of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of
disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource
constraints and that management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating
the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their
costs.
Based on
our evaluation, our chief executive officer, who also is our chief financial
officer, concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are designed at a
reasonable assurance level and were fully effective as of December 31, 2009 in
providing reasonable assurance that information we are required to disclose in
reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed,
summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and
forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our
management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer,
as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required
disclosure.
Management’s
Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Our
management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal
control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f)
under the Exchange Act. Our internal control over financial reporting is
designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial
reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Our internal control
over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that:
(1)
pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable
detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our
assets;
(2)
provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as
necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S.
GAAP, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance
with the authorization of its management and directors; and
(3)
provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely
detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that
could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Our
management assessed the effectiveness of its internal control over financial
reporting as of December 31, 2009. In making this assessment, management used
the framework set forth in the report entitled Internal Control—Integrated
Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway
Commission, or COSO. The COSO framework summarizes each of the components of a
company’s internal control system, including (i) the control environment, (ii)
risk assessment, (iii) control activities, (iv) information and communication,
and (v) monitoring. Based on this assessment, our management believes that, as
of December 31, 2009, our internal control over financing reporting is effective
based on those criteria.
This
Annual Report on Form 10-K does not include an attestation report of our
registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial
reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our registered
public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the SEC that permit us to
provide only management’s report in this Annual Report on Form
10-K.
22
Changes
in internal control over financial reporting.
We
regularly review our system of internal control over financial reporting and
make changes to our processes and systems to improve controls and increase
efficiency, while ensuring that we maintain an effective internal control
environment. Changes may include such activities as implementing new, more
efficient systems, consolidating activities, and migrating
processes.
There
were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred
during the period covered by this Annual Report on Form 10-K that has materially
affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control
over financial reporting.

Section

Section
16(a) of the Exchange Act requires our directors and designated officers to file
reports of ownership and changes in ownership of our equity securities with the

(Column C)

The
amounts reported in column D represent the cash bonuses paid each of the Named

Option
Awards (Column F)
The
amounts reported in column F represent the dollar amount of stock option awards
recognized for each of the Named Executive Officers as compensation costs for
financial reporting purposes (excluding forfeiture assumptions) in accordance
with FAS 123(R) for the relevant fiscal years.
Effective
January 1, 2006, we adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 123(R), which requires
the measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all share-based
payment awards (including stock options) made to employees and directors based
on estimated fair value. We previously accounted for the stock options under the
fair value recognition provisions of FASB Statement No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation, as amended by SFAS No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation — Transition and Disclosure now known as ASC 718 “Compensation – Stock
Compensation.”
The fair
value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using the
Black-Scholes valuation model that uses the assumptions noted in the following
table. Expected volatilities are based on implied volatilities from similar
companies that operate within the same industry sector index. We calculated the
historical volatility for each comparable company to come up with an expected
average volatility and then adjusted the expected volatility based on factors
such as historical stock transactions, major business transactions, and industry
trends. The expected terms of the options are estimated based on factors such as
vesting periods, contractual expiration dates and historical exercise behavior.
The risk-free rate for periods within the contractual life of the option is
based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of
grant.
Employment
Contracts and Termination of Employment and Change-In-Control
Arrangements
We do not
have written employment agreements or other employment arrangements with any of
our executive officers. Our Board of Directors is evaluating the appropriate
terms and conditions for the employment of our executive officers.
Outstanding
Equity Awards At Fiscal Year End
We do not
have any unexercised stock options outstanding for any of our Named Executive
Officers.
Director
Compensation
We have
made no arrangements for the remuneration of our directors, except that they
will be entitled to receive reimbursement for actual, demonstrable out –of
–pocket expenses, including travel expenses, if any, made on our behalf. No
remuneration has been paid to our directors for services to date.
