Forward
Looking Statements
Some of
the statements that we make in this report, including statements about our
confidence in BHIT’s prospects and strategies, are forward-looking statements
within the meaning of § 21E of the Securities Exchange Act. Some of these
forward-looking statements can be identified by words like “believe,” “expect,”
“will,” “should,” “intend,” “plan,” or similar terms; others can be determined
by context. Statements contained in this report that are not historical facts
are forward-looking statements. These statements are necessarily estimates
reflecting our best judgment based upon current information, and involve a
number of risks and uncertainties. Many factors could affect the accuracy of
these forward-looking statements, causing our actual results to differ
significantly from those anticipated in these statements. While it is impossible
to identify all applicable risks and uncertainties, they include our ability
to:
|
execute
our business plan by identifying and acquiring an operating company or
companies;
|
|
obtain
appropriate financing to complete potential
acquisitions;
|
|
effectively
invest our existing funds and raise additional capital to fund our
operations; and
|
|
comply
with SEC regulations and filing requirements applicable to us as a public
company.
|
You
should not place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements, which reflect
our analysis only as of the date of this report. The risks and uncertainties
listed above and elsewhere in this report and other documents that we file with
the Securities and Exchange Commission, including our annual report on Form
10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, and any current reports on Form 8-K, must
be carefully considered by any investor or potential investor in BHIT. All
subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements attributable to us or any
person acting on our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the
cautionary statements contained or referred to in this section. We do not
undertake any obligation to release publicly, any revisions to our
forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of
this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Nature
of Operations
B.H.I.T.
Inc. is a shell company without significant operations or sources of revenues
other than its investments. Our existing operations relate primarily to
servicing our cash investment portfolio and maximizing existing capital with
stable interest-generating instruments. However, our management team is
aggressively investigating potential operating companies to acquire and
additional sources of financing. Currently we are focusing our efforts on
railroad track construction, repair and maintenance businesses, but we cannot
guarantee we will complete an acquisition in this industry. Accordingly, we may
explore potential acquisitions in other industries as well.
On May
28, 2009, we entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) with
Stephanie G. Smith and Greg Smith, Trustees of the Stephanie G. Smith Trust U/A
dated December 20, 1995, as amended (the “Trust”), Andy C. Lewis (together with
the Trust, the “Sellers”), and The Wood Energy Group, Inc. (“Wood”), pursuant to
which we agreed to purchase all of the issued and outstanding common stock of
Wood, which is owned by the Sellers, for a purchase price of $4.8 million in
cash and $1.0 million in shares of common stock of the Company, or 2,857,143
shares. The number of shares of common stock of the Company was determined by
the market value of the shares based on the average closing price of the stock
for the five business days prior to June 1, 2009. The purchase price may be
increased or decreased by a working capital adjustment based on the closing date
balance sheet. The transaction is expected to close in the third quarter of
2009. Closing of the transaction is contingent on the satisfaction of standard
conditions, including obtaining financing, completion of due diligence review
and the execution of employment agreements with Messrs. Smith and Lewis. Wood
engages in the business of railroad tie reclamation and
disposal.
3
The
Agreement contains non-solicitation and noncompetition provisions pursuant to
which the Sellers agree not to solicit any employee or affiliate of Wood or
engage in competitive business for a period of two years after the date of
closing of the transaction. The Agreement also contains customary
representations, warranties, covenants and indemnification
provisions.
There can
be no assurances that the transaction will be completed on the proposed terms or
at all.
Results
of Operations
Comparison
of Three Months Ended June 30, 2009 and 2008
Our total
revenues for the quarter ended June 30, 2009 were $3,904, compared to $11,406
for the same period in 2008, a decrease of $7,502, or 65.77%. Revenues decreased
as the result of a decrease in invested funds as well as lower interest rates
earned on invested funds.
Our total
expenses for the second quarter of 2009 increased $142,987, or 289.4%, to
$192,387, compared to $49,400 for the second quarter of 2008. The increase was
caused by the non-cash stock compensation charge of $87,500 due to an award of
stock options in the second quarter of 2009 and an increase in professional fees
and other general expenses relating to the pursuit of acquisition targets,
particularly The Wood Energy Group, Inc. as discussed above.
Accordingly,
our net loss for the second quarter of 2009 was $188,463, compared to a net loss
of $37,994 in the second quarter of 2008, an increase of $150,469.
Comparison
of Six Months Ended June 30, 2009 and 2008
Our total
revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2009 were $9,470, compared to $29,156
for the same period in 2008, a decrease of $19,686, or 67.5%. Revenues decreased
as the result of a decrease in invested funds as well as lower interest rates
earned on invested funds.
Our total
expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2009 increased $125,076, or 107.9%,
to $241,010, compared to $115,934 for the six months ended June 30, 2008. The
increase was caused by the non-cash stock compensation charge of $87,500 due to
an award of stock options in the second quarter of 2009 and an increase in
professional fees and other general expenses relating to the pursuit of
acquisition targets, particularly The Wood Energy Group.
Accordingly,
our net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2009 was $231,540, compared to a
net loss of $86,778 for the six months ended June 30, 2008, an increase of
$144,762.
Financial
Condition and Liquidity
Cash and
cash equivalents consist of cash and short-term investments. Our cash and cash
equivalents balance at June 30, 2009 was $1,445,914, a decrease of $167,259 from
$1,613,173 at December 31, 2008. Cash and cash equivalents decreased in the
first six months of 2009 primarily as the result of our net loss for the period
and the purchase of 250,000 shares of treasury stock for $62,500. At this time,
we have no other material commitments for capital expenditures. We believe our
cash is sufficient to meet our needs for anticipated operating expenses as a
shell company for 2009. However, we are exploring additional sources of
financing to fund the possible acquisition of an operating company, The Wood
Energy Group, Inc., as discussed above.

Off-Balance
Sheet Arrangements
We do not
have any material off-balance sheet arrangements.
Recent
Accounting Pronouncements
In
September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements,” which
defines fair value, provides a framework for measuring fair value, and expands
the disclosures required for fair value measurements. SFAS 157 applies to other
accounting pronouncements that require fair value measurements; it does not
require any new fair value measurements. SFAS 157 was to be effective for BHIT
on January 1, 2008. However, in February 2008, the FASB released a FASB Staff
Position (FSP FAS 157-2 — Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157) which
delayed the effective date of SFAS No. 157 for BHIT to January 1, 2009. We
adopted SFAS 157 on January 1, 2009. The implementation of SFAS 157 in 2009 did
not have a significant impact on the Company’s financial position or results of
operations.
In
December 2007, the FASB issued Statement 141 (revised 2007), “Business
Combinations” (SFAS 141R) to change how an entity accounts for the acquisition
of a business. SFAS 141R will replace existing SFAS 141 in its
entirely.
SFAS 141R
carries forward the existing requirements to account for all business
combinations using the acquisition method (formerly called the purchase method).
In general, SFAS 141R will require acquisition-date fair value measurement of
identifiable assets acquired, liabilities assumed and noncontrolling interests
in the acquiree. SFAS 141R will eliminate the current cost-based purchase method
under SFAS 141.
SFAS 141R
amends the goodwill impairment test requirements in SFAS 142. For a goodwill
impairment test as of a date after the effective date of SFAS 141R, the value of
the reporting unit and the amount of implied goodwill, calculated in the second
step of the test, will be determined in accordance with the measurement and
recognition guidance on accounting for business combinations under SFAS 141R.
This change could effect the determination of what amount, if any, should be
recognized as an impairment loss for goodwill recorded before the effective date
of SFAS 141R. This accounting will be required when SFAS 141R becomes effective
(January 1, 2009 for the Company) and applies to goodwill related to
acquisitions accounted for originally under SFAS 141 as well as those accounted
for under SFAS 141R.
The
Company adopted SFAS 141R effective January 1, 2009 and will apply its
provisions prospectively. The implementation of SFAS 141R in 2009 did not have a
significant impact on the Company’s financial position or results of
operations.
On May
28, 2009, the FASB announced the issuance of SFAS 165, Subsequent Events. SFAS 165
should not result in significant changes in the subsequent events that an entity
reports. Rather, SFAS 165 introduces the concept of financial statements being
available to be issued. Financial statements are considered available to be
issued when they are complete in a form and format that complies with generally
accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and all approvals necessary for issuance
have been obtained.
The FASB
issued SFAS No. 168, The FASB Accounting Standards Codification and the
Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, on June 29, 2009 and, in
doing so, authorized the Codification as the sole source for authoritative
guidance on U.S. GAAP. SFAS No. 168 will be effective for
financial statements issued for reporting periods that end after September 15,
2009. SFAS No. 168 replaces SFAS No. 162 to establish a new hierarchy of
GAAP sources for non-governmental entities under the FASB Accounting Standards
Codification. The adoption of this standard will not have an effect
on the Company’s operations or financial position.

Item
4(T). Controls and
Procedures
Under the
direction of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, management
evaluated our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act
Rule 13a-15(e)) and concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were
effective as of June 30, 2009. Further, there have been no changes in our
internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2009
that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect,
our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rule
13a-15(f)).

Part
II — Other Information
Item
1. Legal
Proceedings
On July
24, 2008, we entered into an asset purchase agreement with L.A. Colo, LLC
(“Colo”) and Iron Rail Group, LLC (“Iron Rail”), the owner of Colo, pursuant to
which we agreed to purchase substantially all of the assets of Colo for $15.0
million, subject to adjustment. Colo provides railroad maintenance and
construction services to short line railroads and industrial customers. The
transaction was delayed due to deteriorating financial and economic conditions
and was ultimately terminated by us due to a reported reduction in the financial
results of Colo, which were contrary to prior representations of Colo as to
their financial performance.
We had
originally placed $60,000 in a purchase money escrow for the acquisition. On
September 30, 2008, we placed an additional $290,000 in the escrow and paid Colo
$50,000 for the option to extend the proposed closing date of the acquisition.
Colo and Iron Rail demanded payment of the $350,000 in escrow in connection with
the termination of the purchase agreement. We authorized the distribution of
$10,000 of the escrow to Iron Rail on October 31, 2008, but because of the
nature of the circumstances surrounding the termination of the acquisition we
dispute that Colo and Iron Rail are entitled to the remaining $340,000. On
November 18, 2008, Colo and Iron Rail instituted arbitration proceedings before
the American Arbitration Association under the terms of the escrow agreement
against BHIT and the escrow agent to obtain the remaining contents of the escrow
in an action captioned L.A.
Colo, LLC and Iron Rail Group LLC v. B.H.I.T. Inc. and Kohrman Jackson &
Krantz PLL. The parties had a binding arbitration in July 2009 to resolve
this matter. A final decision on this matter is expected in September
2009. We cannot predict the outcome of the arbitration. However, BHIT
could be required to disburse the escrow proceeds to Colo as well as pay
interest and legal costs, which would negatively impact our future results of
operations. The remaining escrow proceeds of $340,000 are reflected as a deposit
on the June 30, 2009 Balance Sheet.
We are
not aware of any other pending legal proceedings involving BHIT, nor were any
proceedings terminated in the quarter ended June 30, 2009.
Item
2. Unregistered Sales of Equity
Securities and Use of Proceeds
On June
1, 2009, BHIT granted non-qualified stock options to purchase 875,000 shares of
the Company’s common stock for $0.35 per share to BHIT’s officers in
compensation for their service to the Company. The options were fully vested on
the date of grant and expire on June 1, 2014. The options were not registered
under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Act”) in reliance on the private offering
exception from registration provided by paragraph 4(2) of the Act and related
Rule 506 of Regulation D.

Note
1. Nature of Operations
B.H.I.T.
Inc. (“BHIT,” “we,” “our” or the “company”) was originally organized under the
laws of the State of Massachusetts in 1985, under the name VMS Hotel Investment
Trust, for the purpose of investing in mortgage loans, principally to entities
affiliated with VMS Realty Partners. The company was subsequently reorganized as
a Delaware corporation in 1987. We changed our name from Banyan Hotel Investment
Fund to B.H.I.T. Inc. in 1998.
Currently,
BHIT is a shell company without significant operations or sources of revenues
other than interest on its investments. However, our management team is
aggressively investigating potential operating companies to acquire and
additional sources of financing. Currently we are focusing our efforts on
railroad track construction, repair and maintenance businesses, but we cannot
guarantee we will complete an acquisition in this industry and we may explore
potential acquisitions in other industries as well.
On May
28, 2009, we entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) with
Stephanie G. Smith and Greg Smith, Trustees of the Stephanie G. Smith Trust U/A
dated December 20, 1995, as amended (the “Trust”), Andy C. Lewis (together with
the Trust, the “Sellers”), and The Wood Energy Group, Inc. (“Wood”), pursuant to
which we agreed to purchase all of the issued and outstanding common stock of
Wood, which is owned by the Sellers, for a purchase price of $4.8 million in
cash and $1.0 million in shares of common stock of the Company, or 2,857,143
shares. The number of shares of common stock of the Company was determined by
the market value of the shares based on the average closing price of the stock
for the five business days prior to June 1, 2009. The purchase price may be
increased or decreased by a working capital adjustment based on the closing date
balance sheet. The transaction is expected to close in the third quarter of
2009. Closing of the transaction is contingent on the satisfaction of standard
conditions, including obtaining financing, completion of due diligence review
and the execution of employment agreements with Messrs. Smith and Lewis. Wood
engages in the business of railroad tie reclamation and disposal.
The
Agreement contains non-solicitation and noncompetition provisions pursuant to
which the Sellers agree not to solicit any employee or affiliate of Wood or
engage in competitive business for a period of two years after the date of
closing of the transaction. The Agreement also contains customary
representations, warranties, covenants and indemnification
provisions.
There can
be no assurances that the transaction will be completed on the proposed terms or
at all.

2. Basis of Presentation
We have
prepared the accompanying financial statements pursuant to the rules and
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. In the opinion of
management, these financial statements give effect to all normal recurring
adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position of the company as
of June 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, and the results of operations and cash
flows for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008. The financial
information for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008 is
unaudited.
Although
we believe that the disclosures included in our financial statements are
adequate to make the information presented not misleading, certain information
and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been omitted.
Accordingly, the accompanying financial statements should be read in conjunction
with BHIT’s latest annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31,
2008.
The
preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in the financial
statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from these
estimates.
The
results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2009 are not necessarily
indicative of the results to be expected for the full 2009
year.
Note
3. New Accounting Pronouncements
In
September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements,” which
defines fair value, provides a framework for measuring fair value, and expands
the disclosures required for fair value measurements. SFAS 157 applies to other
accounting pronouncements that require fair value measurements; it does not
require any new fair value measurements. SFAS 157 was to be effective for BHIT
on January 1, 2008. However, in February 2008, the FASB released a FASB Staff
Position (FSP FAS 157-2 — Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157) which
delayed the effective date of SFAS No. 157 for BHIT to January 1, 2009. We
adopted SFAS 157 on January 1, 2009. The implementation of SFAS 157 in 2009 did
not have a significant impact on the Company’s financial position or results of
operations.
In
December 2007, the FASB issued Statement 141 (revised 2007), “Business
Combinations” (SFAS 141R) to change how an entity accounts for the acquisition
of a business. SFAS 141R will replace existing SFAS 141 in its
entirely.
SFAS 141R
carries forward the existing requirements to account for all business
combinations using the acquisition method (formerly called the purchase method).
In general, SFAS 141R will require acquisition-date fair value measurement of
identifiable assets acquired, liabilities assumed and noncontrolling interests
in the acquiree. SFAS 141R will eliminate the current cost-based purchase method
under SFAS 141.
SFAS 141R
amends the goodwill impairment test requirements in SFAS 142. For a goodwill
impairment test as of a date after the effective date of SFAS 141R, the value of
the reporting unit and the amount of implied goodwill, calculated in the second
step of the test, will be determined in accordance with the measurement and
recognition guidance on accounting for business combinations under SFAS 141R.
This change could effect the determination of what amount, if any, should be
recognized as an impairment loss for goodwill recorded before the effective date
of SFAS 141R. This accounting will be required when SFAS 141R becomes effective
(January 1, 2009 for the Company) and applies to goodwill related to
acquisitions accounted for originally under SFAS 141 as well as those accounted
for under SFAS 141R.

Note 3. New Accounting
Pronouncements (Continued)
The
Company adopted SFAS 141R effective January 1, 2009 and will apply its
provisions prospectively. The implementation of SFAS 141R in 2009 did not have a
significant impact on the Company’s financial position or results of
operations.
On May
28, 2009, the FASB announced the issuance of SFAS 165, Subsequent Events. SFAS 165
should not result in significant changes in the subsequent events that an entity
reports. Rather, SFAS 165 introduces the concept of financial statements being
available to be issued. Financial statements are considered available to be
issued when they are complete in a form and format that complies with generally
accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and all approvals necessary for issuance
have been obtained.
The FASB
issued SFAS No. 168, The FASB Accounting Standards Codification and the
Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, on June 29, 2009 and, in
doing so, authorized the Codification as the sole source for authoritative
guidance on U.S. GAAP. SFAS No. 168 will be effective for
financial statements issued for reporting periods that end after September 15,
2009. SFAS No. 168 replaces SFAS No. 162 to establish a new hierarchy
of GAAP sources for non-governmental entities under the FASB Accounting
Standards Codification. The adoption of this standard will not have an effect on
the Company’s operations or financial position.

4. Stock-Based Compensation
The
Company has stock option agreements with its directors and officers that provide
for the issuance of a total of 3,000,000 shares of common stock for serving on
the Company’s Board of Directors and as officers. As of June 30, 2009 the
options activity is as follows:

The
number of options issued and the grant dates were determined at the discretion
of the Company’s Board. The options vested at the date of grant, and are
exercisable for a period not to exceed five years from the date of grant. No
options were exercised during the six months ended June 30, 2009.
The stock
options are not considered in calculating diluted earnings per share because
there effect would be anti-dilutive due to the Company’s losses.
The fair
values of the stock options issued during 2009 have been estimated using the
Black-Scholes method, whereby the valuation model takes into account variables
such as estimated volatility, expected holding period, dividend yield, and the
risk free interest rate. Management has determined that the June 1, 2009 options
have a value of $0.10 per share ($87,500 in total), which has been recorded as
compensation expense during the quarter ended June 30, 2009.
Expected
volatility rate was estimated using the average volatility rates of seven public
companies in the railroad industry. The expected lives of the options represents
the period that the options granted are expected to be outstanding. The risk
free rate is based on the yield curve of a zero coupon U.S. Treasury bond over
the term of the expected life. The Company does not expect to pay a dividend on
common stock.The weighted average assumptions used in the option-pricing models
during 2009 were as follows:

5. Stockholders’ Equity
On March
26, 2009, the Company purchased an aggregate of 250,000 shares of its common
stock in a non-market transaction. The treasury shares were purchased at a price
of $0.25 per share (the market price on the day of the transaction) for a total
of $62,500.

Note
6. Income Taxes
The
Company reported no income tax expense or benefit for the six months ended June
30, 2009 and 2008 due to the net operating losses incurred during both periods
and a valuation allowance established against 100% of the Company’s tax
assets.
Our
Federal net operating loss (“NOL”) carryforward balance as of December 31, 2008
was $2,684,645. Our NOL carryforwards are scheduled to expire between 2009 and
2028. NOL utilization may be subject to a limitation contained in Internal
Revenue Code Section 382. The purchase of common stock from Summa (a former
significant shareholder) in 2000 and subsequent stock issuances may have
substantially limited or eliminated the opportunity to utilize our NOL
carryforwards.
In June
2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 48 (FIN 48), “Accounting for
Uncertainty in Income Taxes.” Previously, the Company had accounted for
contingencies in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
5, “Accounting for Contingencies.” The interpretation provides guidance on
recognition, classification and disclosure concerning uncertain tax liabilities.
The evaluation of a tax position requires recognition of a tax benefit if it is
‘more-likely-than-not’ that it will be sustained upon examination. For tax
positions meeting the ‘more-likely-than-not’ threshold, the amount recognized in
the financial statements is the largest benefit that has a greater than 50%
likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the relevant tax
authority. The Company adopted FIN 48 effective January 1, 2007. At the adoption
date, the Company applied FIN 48 to all positions for which the statute of
limitations remained open and determined that no liability existed for uncertain
tax positions. The Company has updated its FIN 48 assessment through June 30,
2009 and determined that no adjustments were necessary.
Note
7. Contingencies
On July
24, 2008, we entered into an asset purchase agreement with L.A. Colo, LLC
(“Colo”) and Iron Rail Group, LLC (“Iron Rail”), the owner of Colo, pursuant to
which we agreed to purchase substantially all of the assets of Colo for $15.0
million, subject to adjustment. Colo provides railroad maintenance and
construction services to short line railroads and industrial customers. The
transaction was delayed due to deteriorating financial and economic conditions
and was ultimately terminated by us due to a reported reduction in the financial
results of Colo, which were contrary to prior representations of Colo as to
their financial performance.
We had
originally placed $60,000 in a purchase money escrow for the acquisition. On
September 30, 2008, we placed an additional $290,000 in the escrow and paid Colo
$50,000 for the option to extend the proposed closing date of the acquisition.
Colo and Iron Rail demanded payment of the $350,000 in escrow in connection with
the termination of the purchase agreement. We authorized the distribution of
$10,000 of the escrow to Iron Rail on October 31, 2008, but because of the
nature of the circumstances surrounding the termination of the acquisition we
dispute that Colo and Iron Rail are entitled to the remaining $340,000. On
November 18, 2008, Colo and Iron Rail instituted arbitration proceedings before
the American Arbitration Association under the terms of the escrow agreement
against BHIT and the escrow agent to obtain the remaining contents of the escrow
in an action captioned L.A.
Colo, LLC and Iron Rail Group LLC v. B.H.I.T. Inc. and Kohrman Jackson &
Krantz PLL. The parties had a binding arbitration in July 2009 to resolve
this matter. A final decision on this matter is expected in September
2009. We cannot predict the outcome of the arbitration. However, BHIT
could be required to disburse the escrow proceeds to Colo as well as pay
interest and legal costs, which would negatively impact our future results of
operations. The remaining escrow proceeds of $340,000 are reflected as a deposit
on the June 30, 2009 Balance Sheet.
Note
8. Subsequent Events
The
Company evaluated all events and transactions that occurred after June 30, 2009
up through August 13, 2009, the date the Company issued these financial
statements.
