NOTES
TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
1. Financial
Statement Presentation
The
Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of June 30, 2007, and the Condensed
Consolidated Statements of Operations, Cash Flows and Stockholders’ Equity and
Comprehensive Income for the three months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, have
been prepared by Air T, Inc. (the “Company”) without audit. In the
opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring
adjustments) necessary to present fairly the consolidated financial position,
results of operations and cash flows as of and for the period ended June 30,
2007, and for prior periods presented, have been made.
It
is suggested that these financial statements be read in conjunction with the
consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2007. The
results of operations for the periods ended June 30 are not necessarily
indicative of the operating results for the full year.
2. Income
Taxes
The
Company adopted the provisions of
Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Interpretation No. 48 (“FIN 48”),
Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes- an Interpretation of FASB
Statement No. 109, on April 1, 2007. The Company has analyzed
filing positions in all of the federal and state jurisdictions where it is
required to file income tax returns, as well as all open tax years in these
jurisdictions. The periods subject to examination for the Company’s
federal return are the fiscal 2006 and 2007 tax years. The Company
did not have any unrecognized tax benefits and there was no effect on our
financial condition or results of operations as a result of implementing FIN
48.
It
is the Company policy to recognize
interest and penalties accrued on any unrecognized tax benefits as a component
of income tax expense. As of the date of adoption of FIN 48, the
Company did not have any accrued interest or penalties associated with any
unrecognized tax benefits, nor was any interest expense recognized during the
quarter.
The
tax effect of temporary
differences, primarily asset reserves and accrued liabilities, gave rise to
the
Company's deferred tax asset in the accompanying June 30, 2007 and March 31,
2007 consolidated balance sheets. Deferred income taxes are recognized for
the
tax consequence of such temporary differences at the enacted tax rate expected
to be in effect when the differences reverse.
The
income tax provision for the
respective three-months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 differ from the federal
statutory rate primarily as a result of state income taxes and, to a lesser
extent, other permanent differences.
3. Net
Earnings Per Share
Basic
earnings per share has been calculated by dividing net earnings by the weighted
average number of common shares outstanding during each period. For
purposes of calculating diluted earnings per share, shares issuable under
employee stock options were considered potential common shares and were included
in the weighted average common shares unless they were
anti-dilutive. As of June 30, 2007 and 2006, 1,000 outstanding stock
options were anti-dilutive.
7
The
computation of basic and diluted earnings per common share is as
follows:

5. Stock
Based Compensation
The
Company maintains stock based compensation plans which allow for the issuance
of
nonqualified stock options to officers, other key employees of the Company,
and
to members of the Board of Directors. The Company accounts for stock
compensation using the fair value recognition provisions of FASB Statement
No.
123(R), Share-Based Payment.
No
options were granted or exercised during the three months ended June 30, 2007
and 2006. Stock based compensation expense has been recognized in the
amount of $87,278 and $30,750 for the three months ended June 30, 2007 and
2006,
respectively. As of June 30, 2007, there was $748,742 of unrecognized
compensation expense to be recognized over the next ten quarters ending December
31, 2009.
6. Recent
Accounting Pronouncements
In
September 2006, the FASB issued Statement No. 157 (“SFAS 157”), Fair Value
Measurements. SFAS 157 establishes a framework for measuring
fair value within generally accepted accounting principles, clarifies the
definition of fair value within the framework, and expands disclosures about
the
use of fair value measurements. SFAS 157 is effective for financial
statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and
interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company has not
determined the impact of adopting SFAS 157 on its consolidated financial
statements.
In
February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for
Financial Assets and Liabilities (“SFAS 159”). SFAS 159 is effective as of
the beginning of the first fiscal year beginning after November 15, 2007, and
is
effective for the Company April 1, 2008. SFAS 159 provides companies
with an option to report selected financial assets and liabilities at fair
value
that are not currently required to be measured at fair value. Accordingly,
companies would then be required to report unrealized gains and losses on these
items in earnings at each subsequent reporting date. The objective is to improve
financial reporting by providing companies with the opportunity to mitigate
volatility in reported earnings caused by measuring related assets and
liabilities differently. SFAS 159 also establishes presentation and disclosure
requirements designed to facilitate comparisons between companies that choose
different measurement attributes for similar types of assets and liabilities.
The Company has not determined the impact of adopting SFAS 159 on its
consolidated financial statements.

7. Financing
Arrangements
In
August
2006, the Company amended its $7,000,000 secured long-term revolving credit
line
to extend its expiration date to August 31, 2008. The revolving
credit line contains customary events of default, a subjective acceleration
clause and restrictive covenants that, among other matters, require the Company
to maintain certain financial ratios. There is no requirement for the
Company to maintain a lock-box arrangement under this agreement. As
of June 30, 2007, the Company was in compliance with all of the restrictive
covenants. The amount of credit available to the Company under the
agreement at any given time is determined by an availability calculation, based
on the eligible borrowing base, as defined in the credit agreement, which
includes the Company’s outstanding receivables, inventories and equipment, with
certain exclusions. At June 30, 2007, $5,748,000 was available under the terms
of the credit facility and no amounts were outstanding. The credit facility
is
secured by substantially all of the Company’s assets.
Amounts
advanced under the credit
facility bear interest at the 30-day “LIBOR” rate plus 137 basis
points. The LIBOR rate at June 30, 2007 was 5.32%.
The
Company assumes various financial
obligations and commitments in the normal course of its operations and financing
activities. Financial obligations are considered to represent known
future cash payments that the Company is required to make under existing
contractual arrangements such as debt and lease agreements.

9. Commitments
and Contingencies
On
February 28, 2005, a 135-foot fixed-stand deicing boom sold by Global for
installation at the Philadelphia, Pennsylvania airport, and maintained by
Global, collapsed on an Airbus A330 aircraft operated by U.S.
Airways. While the aircraft suffered some structural damage, no
passengers or crew on the aircraft were injured. The operator of the
deicing boom has claimed to suffer injuries in connection with the
collapse. Immediately following this incident, the remaining eleven
fixed-stand deicing booms sold by Global and installed at the Philadelphia
airport were placed out of service pending investigation of their structural
soundness. These booms include 114-foot smaller deicing booms, as
well as additional 135-foot extended deicing booms. All of these
booms were designed, fabricated and installed by parties other than Global
and
are the only booms of this model that have been sold by Global.
In
June
2005, after an independent structural engineering firm’s investigation
identified specific design flaws and structural defects in the remaining 11
booms and Global’s subcontractor declined to participate in efforts to return
the remaining 11 booms to service, Global agreed with the City of Philadelphia
to effect specific repairs to the remaining 11 booms. Under this
agreement, Global agreed to effect the repairs to these booms at its expense
and
reserved its rights to recover these expenses from any third party ultimately
determined to be responsible for defects and flaws in these
booms. The agreement provided that if Global performed its
obligations under the agreement, the City of Philadelphia will not pursue any
legal remedies against Global for the identified design flaws and structural
defects with respect to these 11 booms. However, the City of
Philadelphia retained its rights with respect to any cause of action arising
from the collapse of the boom in February 2005.
On
October 11, 2005, Global completed the repair, installation and recertification
of ten of the deicing booms. Repair had been completed on the
eleventh boom, which was then damaged in transit to the Philadelphia airport
by
an independent carrier. The additional repair work on that boom has
been completed and the boom has been delivered back to the airport. The carrier
had initially undertaken that such further repair work would be at its expense,
though the carrier has since disclaimed liability for the full costs associated
with the damage to the eleventh boom. As described below, Global has
initiated litigation against the carrier to recover its costs related to the
damage to the eleventh boom.
Global
has been named as a defendant in three legal actions arising from the February
2005 boom collapse at the Philadelphia airport. In the first,
U.S. Airways vs. Elliott Equipment Company, et al., which is pending in
United States District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania, U.S.
Airways initiated an action on April 7, 2006 against Global and its
subcontractor seeking to recover approximately $2.9 million, representing the
alleged cost to repair the damaged Airbus A330 aircraft and including
approximately $1 million for the loss of use of the aircraft while it was being
repaired. Discovery is continuing in this case and a trial has been set for
March 2008. In the second action, Emerson vs. Elliott Equipment
Company, et al., pending in the Philadelphia County Court of Common Pleas,
the boom operator is seeking to recover unspecified damages from Global and
its
subcontractor for injuries arising from the collapse of the
boom. This matter was initiated on October 21, 2005 and is scheduled
for trial in May 2008. The Company understands that the boom operator
has recovered from his claimed injuries and has returned to fulltime
work. Global maintains product liability insurance in excess of the
amount of the recoveries claimed above and is being defended in these matters
by
its product liability insurance carrier. Global’s insurance coverage
does not extend to the costs incurred by Global to examine and repair the other
11 booms at the Philadelphia airport. The third lawsuit is a claim
brought in December 2006, on behalf of the City of Philadelphia captioned
City of Philadelphia v. Elliott Equipment Company, et al., which was
filed in the Philadelphia County Court of Common Pleas. In that
action, the City seeks to recover for the cost of replacing the boom that was
destroyed in the February 2005 accident. It is estimated that the
cost for replacing that boom will be in the $500,000 to $600,000
range. That matter is in its early stage and a trial is anticipated
for September 2008, based on the current scheduling order. Global’s
product liability insurance carrier has denied coverage with respect to the
third lawsuit claiming that it seeks replacement of allegedly defective
products. Global has included in its claims against its subcontractor
any losses it may suffer in connection with the claims alleged in this
lawsuit. In light of the claims asserted in this action directly
against Global's subcontractor and the related claims made by Global against
its
subcontractor, management does not believe that the ultimate liability, if
any, of Global for losses alleged in this lawsuit would be material to the
Company's financial position or results of operations.
10
On
August
4, 2005, Global commenced litigation in the Court of Common Pleas, Philadelphia
County, Pennsylvania against Glazer Enterprises, Inc. t/a Elliott Equipment
Company, Global’s subcontractor that designed, fabricated and warrantied the
booms at the Philadelphia airport, seeking to recover approximately $905,000
in
costs incurred by Global in fiscal 2006 in connection with repairing the 11
booms and any damages arising from the collapse of the boom in February
2005. That case has been removed to federal court and is pending
before United States District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania
and
has been assigned to the same judge before whom the U.S. Airways litigation
is
pending against Global. Discovery is continuing in this
lawsuit. The Company cannot provide assurance that it will be able to
recover its repair expenses and other losses, or otherwise be successful, in
this action.
On
August
8, 2006, Global commenced litigation in the United States District for the
Eastern District of Pennsylvania (Global Ground Support, LLC v. Sautter
Crane Rental, Inc.) seeking to recover all damage and loss incurred as a
result of damage that occurred to the 135-foot deicing boom while in transit
back to the Philadelphia International Airport. That claim was
initially filed under theories of negligence, but the Court has recently ruled
that the action should proceed under a contract theory, and the action has
been
re-filed as a contract claim. In that action, Global seeks damage of
approximately $300,000. The matter is in its initial discovery
stage. This matter is currently scheduled for trial in November
2007.
The
Company is currently involved in certain personal injury and environmental
matters, which involve pending or threatened lawsuits. Management believes
the
results of these pending or threatened lawsuits will not have a material adverse
effect on the Company’s results of operations or financial
position.
Item
2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations.
Overview
The
Company operates in two business segments, providing overnight air cargo
services to the express delivery services industry and aviation ground support
and other specialized equipment products to passenger and cargo airlines,
airports, the military and industrial customers. Each business
segment has separate management teams and infrastructures that offer different
products and services. The Company’s air cargo operations are
comprised of its Mountain Air Cargo, Inc. (“MAC”) and CSA Air, Inc. (“CSA”)
subsidiaries and the Company’s ground support operations consist of its Global
Ground Support, LLC subsidiary (“Global”). Following is a table
detailing revenues by segment and by major customer category:

MAC
and
CSA provide short-haul express air freight services exclusively to one customer,
FedEx Corporation (“FedEx”). Under the terms of the dry-lease service
agreements which currently cover the majority of the revenue aircraft operated,
the Company receives an administrative fee based on the number of aircraft
operated in revenue service and passes through to its customer certain cost
components of its operations without markup. The cost of fuel, flight
crews, landing fees, outside maintenance, parts and certain other direct
operating costs are included in operating expenses and billed to the customer
as
cargo and maintenance revenue, at cost. These agreements are
renewable on two to five year terms and may be terminated by FedEx at any time
upon 30 days notice. The Company believes that the short term and
other provisions of these agreements are standard within the air freight
contract delivery service industry. FedEx has been a customer of the
Company since 1980. Loss of its contracts with FedEx would have a
material adverse effect on the Company.
Separate
agreements cover the five types of aircraft operated by MAC and CSA for
FedEx—Cessna Caravan, ATR-42, ATR-72, Fokker F-27, and Short Brothers
SD3-30. The Cessna Caravan, ATR-42, ATR-72 and Fokker F-27 aircraft
(a total of 88 aircraft at June 30, 2007) are owned by and dry-leased from
FedEx, and the two Short Brothers SD3-30 aircraft are owned by the Company
and
operated periodically under wet-lease arrangements with
FedEx. Pursuant to such agreements, FedEx determines the type of
aircraft and schedule of routes to be flown by MAC and CSA, with all other
operational decisions made by the Company.
MAC
and
CSA’s revenues contributed approximately $8,512,000 and $8,576,000 to the
Company’s revenues for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2007 and 2006,
respectively, a current year decrease of less than 1%.
Global
manufactures, services and
supports aircraft deicers and ground support equipment and other specialized
military and industrial equipment on a worldwide basis. Global’s revenue
contributed approximately $7,284,000 and $7,508,000 to the Company’s revenues
for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2007 and 2006,
respectively. The 3% decrease in revenues was due to a slight
decrease in the number of commercial orders completed during the current period.
At June 30, 2007, Global’s order backlog was $17.8 million compared to $16.8
million at March 31, 2007 and $16.5 million at June 30, 2006.
Critical
Accounting Policies and Estimates
The
preparation of the Company’s financial statements in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the U.S. requires the use of estimates and
assumptions to determine certain assets, liabilities, revenues and
expenses. Management bases these estimates and assumptions upon the
best information available at the time of the estimates or
assumptions. The Company’s estimates and assumptions could change
materially as conditions within and beyond our control
change. Accordingly, actual results could differ materially from
estimates. The most significant estimates made by management include
allowance for doubtful accounts receivable, reserves for excess and obsolete
inventories, warranty reserves, deferred tax asset valuation and retirement
benefit obligations.
12
Following
is a discussion of critical accounting policies and related management estimates
and assumptions.
Allowance
for Doubtful Accounts. An allowance for doubtful accounts receivable
in the amount of $417,000 and $413,000, respectively, as of June 30, 2007 and
March 31, 2007, was established based on management’s estimates of the
collectability of accounts receivable. The required allowance is
determined using information such as customer credit history, industry
information, credit reports, customer financial condition and the collectability
of outstanding accounts receivables associated with a discontinued business
segment. The estimates can be affected by changes in the financial
strength of the aviation industry, customer credit issues or general economic
conditions.
Inventories. The
Company’s parts inventories are valued at the lower of cost or
market. Reserves for excess and obsolete inventories in the amount of
$694,000 and $664,000, respectively, as of June 30, 2007 and March 31, 2007,
are
based on assessment of the marketability of slow-moving and obsolete
inventories. Estimates are subject to volatility and can be affected
by reduced equipment utilization, existing supplies of used inventory available
for sale, the retirement of aircraft or ground equipment and changes in the
financial strength of the aviation industry.
Warranty
Reserves. The Company warranties its ground equipment products for up
to a two-year period from date of sale. Product warranty reserves are
recorded at time of sale based on the historical average warranty cost and
are
adjusted quarterly as actual warranty cost becomes known. Warranty
reserves were $116,000 and $196,000 at June 30, 2007 and March 31, 2007
respectively.
Deferred
Taxes. Net deferred tax assets are shown net of valuation allowance
in the amount of $62,000, as of June 30, 2007 and March 31, 2007 to reflect
the
likelihood of the recoverability of certain of these assets. Company
judgment of the recoverability of certain of these assets is based primarily
on
estimates of current and expected future earnings and tax planning.
Retirement
Benefits Obligation. The Company currently determines the value of
retirement benefits assets and liabilities on an actuarial basis using a 5.75%
discount rate. Values are affected by current independent indices,
which estimate the expected return on insurance policies and the discount rates
used. Changes in the discount rate used will affect the amount of
pension liability as well as pension gain or loss recognized in other
comprehensive income.
Revenue
Recognition. Cargo revenue is recognized upon completion of contract
terms and maintenance revenue is recognized when the service has been
performed. Revenue from product sales is recognized when contract
terms are completed and title has passed to customers.
Seasonality
Global’s
business has historically been
seasonal. The Company has continued its efforts to reduce Global’s
seasonal fluctuation in revenues and earnings by increasing military and
international sales and broadening its product line to increase revenues and
earnings throughout the year. In June 1999, Global was awarded a
four-year contract to supply deicing equipment to the United States Air Force,
and Global has been awarded two three-year extensions on the
contract. Although sales remain somewhat seasonal, this
diversification has lessened the seasonal impacts and allowed the Company to
be
more efficient in its planning and production. The air cargo segment
of business has no susceptibility to seasonality.
Results
of Operations
Consolidated
revenue decreased $288,000
(2%) to $15,796,000 for the three-month period ended June 30, 2007 compared
to
its equivalent 2006 period. The decrease in revenues resulted primarily from
a
$224,000 (3%) decrease in ground equipment revenue due a slight decrease in
commercial deicer sales, as discussed above in Overview.
Operating
expenses decreased $151,000 (1%) to $14,828,000 for the three-month period
ended
June 30, 2007 compared to its equivalent 2006 period. The more significant
components of this decrease are an $80,000 decrease in ground operating expenses
as a result of the current quarter’s decrease in customer revenues and a $53,000
decrease in depreciation and amortization. The Company adopted FASB
Statement 123(R) in fiscal 2007, which resulted in an increase in general and
administrative expense of $87,000 and $31,000 during the three-month periods
ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively.
13
Non-operating
income, net, was $6,000
for the three-month period ended June 30, 2007 compared to $51,000 in the
equivalent 2006 period. Interest expense relating to inventory
flooring, increased by $53,000, accounting for the majority of the
change.
Pretax
earnings decreased $183,000 for the three-month period ended June 30, 2007
compared to 2006, principally due to the above stated ground equipment segment’s
decreased sales, the effects of FASB Statement 123(R), and the change in
interest expense.
During
the three-month period ended
June 30, 2007, the Company recorded $347,000 income tax expense, which resulted
in an estimated annual tax rate of 35.7%, compared to 37.1% for the comparable
prior year period. The estimated annual effective tax rates for both
periods differ from the U. S. federal statutory rate of 34% primarily due to
the
effect of state income taxes and to a lesser extent, permanent tax
differences.
Liquidity
and Capital Resources
As
of
June 30, 2007 the Company's working capital amounted to $12,690,000, a decrease
of $35,000 compared to March 31, 2007. The change was a combination of increases
in cash and cash equivalents and inventory and decreases in accounts receivable,
accounts payable and accrued expenses. The changes were all in the
ordinary course of business and relate to the timing of collection and payment
of certain accounts.
In
August
2006, the Company amended its $7,000,000 secured long-term revolving credit
line
to extend its expiration date to August 31, 2008. The revolving
credit line contains customary events of default, a subjective acceleration
clause and restrictive covenants that, among other matters, require the Company
to maintain certain financial ratios. There is no requirement for the
Company to maintain a lock-box arrangement under this agreement. As
of June 30, 2007, the Company was in compliance with all of the restrictive
covenants. The amount of credit available to the Company under the
agreement at any given time is determined by an availability calculation, based
on the eligible borrowing base, as defined in the credit agreement, which
includes the Company’s outstanding receivables, inventories and equipment, with
certain exclusions. At June 30, 2007, $5,748,000 was available under the terms
of the credit facility and no amounts were outstanding. The credit facility
is
secured by substantially all of the Company’s assets.
Amounts
advanced under the credit
facility bear interest at the 30-day “LIBOR” rate plus 137 basis
points. The LIBOR rate at June 30, 2007 was 5.32%. The Company is
exposed to changes in interest rates on certain portions of its line of
credit. If the LIBOR interest rate had been increased by one
percentage point, based on the average balance of the line of credit for the
quarter ended June 30, 2007, annual interest expense would not have
changed.
The
Company assumes various financial
obligations and commitments in the normal course of its operations and financing
activities. Financial obligations are considered to represent known
future cash payments that the Company is required to make under existing
contractual arrangements such as debt and lease agreements.
The
respective three-month periods
ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 resulted in the following changes in cash flow:
operating activities provided $2,213,000 and $3,542,000 in 2007 and 2006,
respectively, investing activities used $101,000 and $34,000 in 2007 and 2006,
respectively, and financing activities used $1,192,000 and $453,000 in 2007
and
2006, respectively. Net cash increased $920,000 and $3,055,000 during the
three-months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively.
Cash
provided by operating activities
was $1,329,000 less for the three-months ended June 30, 2007 compared to the
similar 2006 period, principally due to decreased accounts receivable
collections.
Cash
used in investing activities for the three-months ended June 30, 2007 was
approximately $67,000 more than the comparable period in 2006 due to increased
current period capital expenditures.
14
Cash
used in financing activities was
$739,000 more in the 2007 three-month period than in the corresponding 2006
period principally due to a $280,000 decrease in the current period line of
credit borrowings and $547,000 used in the stock repurchase
program.
There
are currently no commitments for
significant capital expenditures. The Company’s Board of Directors on August 7,
1998 adopted the policy to pay an annual cash dividend, based on profitability
and other factors, in the first quarter of each fiscal year, in an amount to
be
determined by the Board. The Company paid a $0.25 per share cash
dividend in June 2007.
Recent
Accounting Pronouncements
In
September 2006, the FASB issued Statement No. 157 (“SFAS 157”), Fair Value
Measurements. SFAS 157 establishes a framework for measuring
fair value within generally accepted accounting principles, clarifies the
definition of fair value within the framework, and expands disclosures about
the
use of fair value measurements. SFAS 157 is effective for financial
statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and
interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company has not
determined the impact of adopting SFAS 157 on its consolidated financial
statements.
In
February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for
Financial Assets and Liabilities (“SFAS 159”). SFAS 159 is effective as of
the beginning of the first fiscal year beginning after November 15, 2007, and
is
effective for the Company April 1, 2008. SFAS 159 provides companies
with an option to report selected financial assets and liabilities at fair
value
that are not currently required to be measured at fair value. Accordingly,
companies would then be required to report unrealized gains and losses on these
items in earnings at each subsequent reporting date. The objective is to improve
financial reporting by providing companies with the opportunity to mitigate
volatility in reported earnings caused by measuring related assets and
liabilities differently. SFAS 159 also establishes presentation and disclosure
requirements designed to facilitate comparisons between companies that choose
different measurement attributes for similar types of assets and liabilities.
The Company has not determined the impact of adopting SFAS 159 on its
consolidated financial statements.
Deferred
Retirement Obligation
Contractual
death benefits for the Company’s former Chairman and Chief Executive Officer who
passed away on April 18, 1997 are payable by the Company in the amount of
$75,000 per year for 10 years from the date of his death. As of June
30, 2007, all benefits owing under this contract have been paid.
Impact
of Inflation
The
Company believes that the recent increases in inflation have not had a material
effect on its manufacturing operations, because increased costs to date have
been passed on to its customers. Under the terms of its air cargo business
contracts the major cost components of its operations, consisting principally
of
fuel, crew and other direct operating costs, and certain maintenance costs
are
reimbursed, without markup by its customer. Significant increases in
inflation rates could, however, have a material impact on future revenue and
operating income.

4. Controls and Procedures
As
of the
end of the period covered by this report, management, including the Company’s
Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness
of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures with
respect to the information generated for use in this report. Based upon, and
as
of the date of that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief
Financial Officer concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures were
effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be
disclosed in the reports we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act
of
1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods
specified in the Commission's rules and forms, and that management will be
timely alerted to material information required to be included in the Company’s
periodic reports filed with the Commission.
There
were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting
during or subsequent to the first quarter of fiscal 2008 that has materially
affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control
over financial reporting.
It
should
be noted that while the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive
Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, believe that the Company’s disclosure
controls and procedures provide a reasonable level of assurance, they do not
expect that the disclosure controls and procedures or internal controls will
prevent all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well
conceived or operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance
that
the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of
a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints,
and
the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their
costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no
evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues
and instances of fraud, if any, within
the
Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the
realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns
can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls
can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of
two
or more people, or by management override of the controls. The design
of any system of controls 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;
over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions,
or
the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may
deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective
control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be
detected.
