ITEM 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
Special Note on Forward-Looking Statements
Certain statements in Management’s Discussion and Analysis (“MD&A”), other than purely historical information, including estimates, projections, statements relating to our business plans, objectives and expected operating results, and the assumptions upon which those statements are based, are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Forward-looking statements generally can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as “may,” “would,” “expect,” “intend,” “could,” “estimate,” “should,” “anticipate,” or “believe.” and similar expressions. Forward-looking statements are based on current expectations and assumptions that are subject to risks and uncertainties which may cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements. These statements are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties and developments beyond our control or foresight including changes in the trends of the mobile computing industry, formation of competitors, changes in governmental regulation or taxation, changes in our personnel and other such factors. We undertake no obligation to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise. Readers should carefully review the risk factors and related notes included under Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 3, 2009.
Overview
The following MD&A is intended to help the reader understand the results of operations, financial condition, and cash flows of MacroSolve, Inc. MD&A is provided as a supplement to, and should be read in conjunction with, our financial statements and the accompanying notes to the financial statements (“Notes”).
Background
We are a technology and services company that develops mobile solutions for businesses and government. A mobile solution is typically the combination of mobile handheld devices, wireless connectivity, and software that streamlines business operations resulting in improved efficiencies and cost savings. We are development and marketing partners with the major mobile device manufacturers, wireless carriers and many software providers.
Traditionally, our customers rely on us to define, design, develop and support the best combinations of technologies in a market that is very technologically dynamic. We assist software and web-based application companies by modifying their software product offerings so that they can be used by a mobile end-user who typically has a Smartphone or a similar cellular device. Many of these customers rely on our technology and marketing expertise. We also serve enterprises that find it difficult to identify a mobile software product which addresses their specific need to streamline operational processes, and do not have the competency in house.
Our latest technology and services capabilities generate a growing base of intellectual property, contract and an increasing amount of annuity based revenue. In 2009, we began investing in products which are being distributed through the leading mobile application stores. These products include ReFormXT™, which helps to minimize mobile application development effort, and DineInsight™, which uses ReFormXT technology for mobile target marketing, promotions and branding for the restaurant industry.
Currently the Company has ongoing projects both domestic and international and operates three websites including ‘www.goanyware.com’, ‘www.macrosolve.com’ and the industry thought leading blog ‘www.mobilebizbuzz.com.
Plan of Operation
Our mobile solutions services business currently represents a significant source of revenue for the Company. Working with our mobile partners, our professional services team provides solution management, product development, project management, quality assurance and support services to address the needs of a client base seeking to use mobility to improve their process efficiencies and modify software applications so that they can be used in a mobile environment.
Our primary software product is ReFormXT™, a web-based mobile application builder. ReFormXT™ simplifies the process of converting paper forms to a digital form that can be utilized on most Smartphones available in the United States. A web-based interface allows a non-technical user to create and dispatch forms to users and easily manage data input from the field. The components of the platform are also utilized as mobile application development tools, thus saving time and money for customers needing more customized solutions. ReFormXT became commercially available in December 2008. Recent customers are using ReForm in field service activities and personal service appointment setting activities. ReForm has contributed less than five percent of annual revenues since initial inception.
10
Additional software products powered by ReFormXT are in various stages of development. A marketing, promotion and branding product called DineInsight was introduced in the fourth quarter of 2009. DineInsight, powered by ReFormXT, is a mobile application for the restaurant industry which collects market intelligence and contact information directly from the customer. The Company is continuing to prove the concept and enhance the offering by working closely with its initial customer base. DineInsight, and a companion product called ClubInsight, has been deployed to nine initial customers during the First Quarter of 2010. The Company has entered into several reseller arrangements and is actively pursuing additional resellers for its “powered by ReFormXT” products in specialized vertical markets while increasing its captive sales force to also sell directly to end users. DineInsight and ClubInsight are expected to contribute less than 20% of the 2010 annual revenues.
We continuously monitor industry trends and adjust projections about the direction of the business in anticipation of the continuous change in client requirements as the mobile industry evolves. We believe that our current direction is one that will bring profits, however our ability to maximize sales volume in the short term is limited without additional capital. There is no expected purchase or sale of capitalized assets, significant equipment or intellectual property in the next twelve months.
Results of Operations
Quarter Ended March 31, 2010 compared to Quarter Ended March 31, 2009 (all references are to the Quarter Ended March 31)
Net Sales: Net Sales decreased $87,000 or 24% to $274,000 in the first quarter ended March 31, 2010 from $361,000 for the same period in 2009. Sources of revenue were derived from our services business, hardware sales and software licensing. Services revenue represented the majority of Net Sales, with a decrease of $161,000 for the first quarter of 2010 to $167,000 from $328,000 in the first quarter of 2009. This was primarily due to a reduction in work under contract in the first quarter of 2010. Hardware sales to third parties and in support of our services activities for the first quarter of 2010 were $77,000, up $51,000 or 195% from $26,000 for the same period in 2009. Hardware sales totaling $54,000 in the first quarter of 2010 are attributable to digiTicket, a division which was sold to private investors in February 2010. Software licensing sales increased $23,000 or 316% for the period to $30,000 from $7,000 for the same period in 2009. Software revenues from digiTicket were $26,000 in the first quarter of 2010 and included $23,000 in deferred software revenues that were recognized in February 2010 when the division was sold.
Cost of Sales and Gross Profit: Cost of Sales for the first quarter of 2010 decreased $21,000 or 11%, in line with the lower level of revenues from $187,000 in 2009 to $166,000 in 2010. The majority of this decrease was associated with workforce reductions and reassignments of resources to product development. The resultant Gross Profit for the first quarter of 2010 of $108,000 was down $65,000 or 38% under the Gross Profit for the same period in 2009 of $173,000. The digiTicket hardware sales are not contributing significantly to profit margins as the initial customers are allowed substantial price incentives in exchange for serving as reference accounts. Gross profit margins were 39% and 48% for the first quarter of 2010 and 2009, respectively. The Company anticipates margins to increase in relation to its increase in software revenues from “powered by ReFormXT” product lines during the remainder of 2010.
Operating, Expenses: Operating expenses include selling, general and administrative expenses and depreciation expense. Operating, expenses decreased by $70,000, or 13% in the first quarter of 2010 to $478,000 from $548,000 in 2009. This decrease reflects cost savings from workforce adjustments in 2009 and cost savings from changing audit firms in 2009.
Loss from Operations: Loss from operations for the first quarter of 2010 was $370,000, an increase of $5,000 or 1% from the loss from operations in 2009 of $375,000 as a result of the aforementioned decrease in gross profit offset by decrease in total operating expenses.
Other Income and Expense: Total other expense of $76,000 in 2010 represented an increase of 172% or $48,000 from $28,000 in 2009 as a result of interest expense associated with debenture financing which began in the second quarter of 2009. The interest expense of $37,000 on debenture financing was paid with 863,387 shares of common stock valued at 85% of the value weighted average price of the Company’s stock, or $0.043 per share, for the last five trading days of the quarter. The Company recognized a loss of $18,000 in the first quarter of 2010 on the sale of digiTicket.
Net Loss: Net loss of $446,000 for the first quarter of 2010 was $43,000 or 11% higher than the net loss of $403,000 for the same period in 2009 primarily attributable to the non-cash interest expense related to debenture financing and loss on the sale of digiTicket assets.
11
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We finance our operations primarily through internally generated funds and proceeds from issuance of debentures and investments of equity by qualified investors.
On July 20, 2009 the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with a group of private investors committing to purchase Floating Rate Convertible Subordinated Debentures in the amount of $2,326,280. During the first quarter 2010, the Company received $283,880 from these investors bringing the total borrowed to date to $1,887,344 and leaving a balance of $438,936 available. The debenture financing, cash generated from current operations and the sale of digiTicket in February 2010 to private investors is expected to provide adequate capital to fund the Company’s operations through 2010. The Company anticipates the need for a $100,000 working capital line of credit to finance receivables in the second half of 2010. At the present time, the Company does not have this facility in place.
The Company does lack growth capital and anticipates that approximately $2 million to $3 million in additional investment capital will be required within the next three years to execute our growth strategy. It is the Company’s intention to raise additional capital in 2010 to support its growth requirements. There is no assurance that capital in any form will be available to us and, if available, on terms and conditions that are acceptable. If we are unable to obtain sufficient funds, we may not be able to implement our growth strategy.
As of March 31, 2010, the Company had total current assets of $324,913 and total current liabilities of $224,713. As of March 31, 2010, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $264,439. As of March 31, 2010, the Company has $438,936 available financing from the private debenture investors who had invested $1,887,344 as of that date.
As a development stage company that began operations in 1997, the Company has incurred $8,662,196 in cumulative total losses from inception through March 31, 2010. The Company’s independent registered public accounting firm’s audit report for the year ended December 31, 2009 included in the Company’s Form 10-K a qualified opinion and an explanatory paragraph regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company continues as a going concern and contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern on a long-term basis will be dependent upon its ability to create and market innovative products and services and sustain adequate working capital to finance its operations.
To lower our required cash expenditures, the Company issues its shares, which have been registered by the Company, to employees for compensation for services. The Company issued a total of 6,040,786 common shares and cancelled a total of 94,030 common shares in the quarter ended March 31, 2010, described further as follows:
The Company’s independent directors annual compensation is $16,000 to be paid quarterly in restricted stock. The Company issued the directors 400,000 shares of restricted stock on January 1, 2010 for their fourth quarter 2009 compensation. The Company recorded $400 as accrued stock based compensation in 2009 for these shares at a fair market value which reflected the lack of marketability of the one year Section 144 holding period for Affiliates.
The Company engaged two vendors in 2009 to provide marketing services. One vendor received 332,978 shares valued at $12,500 and the other vendor received 106,553 shares valued at $4,000 in the first quarter of 2010 to satisfy accrued liability for their services.
The Company issued 7,751,911 compensation shares to employees for services rendered between the second and fourth quarters of 2009 which had been accrued at a value of $7,495 in stock based compensation. The shares were awarded on Restricted Stock Agreements which have a six month time lapse restriction and are subject to forfeiture upon voluntary termination of employment. During the first quarter of 2010, 82,030 shares were forfeited.
The Company had a stock bonus plan for the second half of 2009 which resulted in 999,999 shares of common stock being issued to employees at a value of $1,000 in stock based compensation. The shares were awarded on Restricted Stock Agreements which have a three year time lapse restriction that vests annually over a three year period and are subject to forfeiture upon voluntary termination of employment. During the first quarter of 2010, 12,000 shares were forfeited.
The Company issued 28,412 shares of stock to employees who vested in the first year of the Fourth Quarter 2008 Stock Bonus Plan. The Company had previously recognized $946 in accrued stock based compensation expense for these shares.
On March 24, 2010 the Company filed Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to its Registration Statement Form S-8 No. 333-162426 filed on October 13, 2009 with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Amendment was filed solely to amend the reoffer prospectus related to the resale of control securities acquired or to be acquired by the selling shareholders listed under the “Selling Shareholder” section of the prospectus. The prospectus aggregates 23,608,657 shares of MacroSolve common stock issued prior to 2010 or expected to be issued in 2010 to Officers and Directors pursuant to the 2009 Stock Compensation Plan and the Company’s Stock Bonus Plan. All of the shares being reoffered and resold for the account of the selling stockholders. MacroSolve will not receive any of the proceeds from the resale of these shares.

Critical Accounting Policies
Accounts Receivable and Credit Policies:
Trade accounts receivable consist of amounts due from the sale of solution services, software and hardware. Accounts receivable are uncollateralized customer obligations due under normal trade terms requiring payment within 30 days of receipt of the invoice. The Company provides an allowance for doubtful accounts equal to the estimated uncollectible amounts based on historical collection experience and a review of the current status of trade accounts receivable. In many instances, customers make a substantial prepayment for services before rendered; therefore the Company is extending trade terms to customers who have already proven to be credit worthy. The Company has not taken any direct write offs of bad debts in the past five years.
At the quarter ending March 31, 2010 and at fiscal year ending December 31, 2009, the Company deems all amounts recorded as collectible and, thus has not provided an allowance for uncollectible amounts.
Property and Equipment:
Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation is computed using straight-line methods applied to individual property items based on estimated useful lives.
Revenue Recognition and Unearned Revenue:
Revenue generated from the provision of services is recognized at the time the service is provided. Sales of hardware are recognized upon delivery to the customer. Revenue from the licensing of software is recognized ratably over the license period.
Software Development Costs:
The Company accounts for software development costs in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 86, “Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software to be Sold, Leased, or Otherwise Marketed”. Costs incurred prior to the establishment of technological feasibility are expensed as incurred as research and development costs. Costs incurred after establishing technological feasibility and before the product is released for sale to customers are capitalized. These costs are amortized over three years and are reviewed for impairment at each period end. No capitalized software costs are considered impaired at March 31, 2010.
Long-Lived Assets:
The Company accounts for long-lived assets in accordance with the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-lived assets. This Statement requires that long-lived assets be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. No impairment charges were incurred during the periods ended March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009.
Stock-Based Compensation:
The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 123(R), Share-Based Payment, which is a revision of SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation. SFAS 123(R) requires companies to measure the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments, including stock options, based on the grant-date fair value of the award and to recognize it as compensation expense over the period the employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award, usually the vesting period.
In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 166, “Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets, an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 140” (“SFAS No. 166”). SFAS No. 166 amends SFAS No. 140 “Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities.” SFAS No. 166 improves the comparability of information that a reporting entity provides regarding transfers of financial assets and the effects on its financial statements. SFAS No. 166 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending after November 15, 2009. The Company is currently evaluating the effect that SFAS No. 166 will have on its financial statements.
14
In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 168, “The FASB Accounting Standards Codification ™ and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles a Replacement of FASB Statement No. 162” (“SFAS No. 168”). SFAS No. 168 replaces SFAS No. 162, “The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles” as the source of authoritative accounting principles recognized by the FASB to be applied by non-governmental entities in the preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. SFAS No. 168 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending after September 15, 2009. On September 30, 2009, the Company adopted SFAS No. 168, which has no effect on the Company’s financial statements as it is for disclosure purposes only.
In May 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 165, Subsequent Events, which establishes general standards of accounting for and disclosures of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before the financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. It requires the disclosure of the date through which an entity has evaluated subsequent events. SFAS No. 165 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009. We have adopted the new disclosure requirements in our financial statements and do not expect it to have a material effect on our financial statements.
In April 2009, the FASB issued FSP No. FAS 157-4, “Determining Fair Value When the Volume and Level of Activity for the Asset or Liability Have Significantly Decreased and Identifying Transactions That Are Not Orderly” (“FSP FAS 157-4”). FSP FAS 157-4 provides guidance on estimating fair value when market activity has decreased and on identifying transactions that are not orderly. Additionally, entities are required to disclose in interim and annual periods the inputs and valuation techniques used to measure fair value. This FSP is effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2009. The Company does not expect the adoption of FSP FAS 157-4 will have a material impact on its financial condition or results of operation.
In October 2008, the FASB issued FSP No. FAS 157-3, “Determining the Fair Value of a Financial Asset When the Market for That Asset is Not Active,” (“FSP FAS 157-3”), which clarifies application of SFAS 157 in a market that is not active. FSP FAS 157-3 was effective upon issuance, including prior periods for which financial statements have not been issued. The adoption of FSP FAS 157-3 had no impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial condition or cash flows.
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141R, Business Combinations, which replaces SFAS No. 141. SFAS No. 141R retains the purchase method of accounting for acquisitions, but requires a number of changes, including changes in the way assets and liabilities are recognized in the purchase accounting. It also changes the recognition of assets acquired and liabilities assumed arising from contingencies, requires the capitalization of in-process research and development at fair value, and requires the expensing of acquisition-related costs as incurred. SFAS No. 141R is effective for us beginning July 1, 2009 and will apply prospectively to business combinations completed on or after that date. We do not expect the adoption of SFAS No. 141R to have a material effect on our financial statements.

Management’s Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
In accordance with Exchange Act Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2010 to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms.
There was no change in our internal controls or in other factors that could affect these controls during our last fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II
OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
From time to time we may be a defendant and plaintiff in various legal proceedings arising in the normal course of our business.
