NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2010 AND 2009
The Consolidated Balance Sheet as of March 31, 2010, the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Consolidated Statements of Stockholders' Equity for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 and the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 have been prepared by us without audit. In the opinion of Management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly in all material respects our financial position as of March 31, 2010, results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 and are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.
This report should be read in conjunction with our Form 10-K for our fiscal year ended December 31, 2009.
1. BACKGROUND AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS:
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Anchor Funding Services, Inc. (formerly BTHC XI, Inc.) its wholly owned subsidiary, Anchor Funding Services, LLC (“Anchor”) and its 80% owned subsidiary Brookridge Funding Services, LLC (“Brookridge”, collectively, “the Company”). In April of 2007, BTHC XI, Inc. changed its name to Anchor Funding Services, Inc. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Anchor Funding Services, Inc. is a Delaware corporation. Anchor Funding Services, Inc. has no operations; substantially all operations of the Company are the responsibility of Anchor Funding Services, LLC and Brookridge Funding Services, LLC.
Anchor Funding Services, LLC is a North Carolina limited liability company. Anchor Funding Services, LLC was formed for the purpose of providing factoring and back office services to businesses located throughout the United States of America.
On December 7, 2009, Brookridge Funding Services, LLC, the Company’s 80% owned subsidiary, acquired certain assets and accounts of Brookridge Funding, LLC. Brookridge Funding Services, LLC is a North Carolina limited liability company with operations in Danbury, Connecticut. Brookridge Funding Services, LLC provides factoring and purchase order funding to businesses located throughout the United States of America.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
Principles of Consolidation - The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Anchor Funding Services, Inc., its wholly owned subsidiary, Anchor Funding Services, LLC and its 80%owned subsidiary Brookridge Funding Services, LLC as of March 31, 2010. The consolidated statement of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2010 includes the results of Brookridge Funding Services, LLC, and Anchor Funding Services, LLC. The consolidated statement of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2009 does not include the results of Brookridge Funding Services, LLC.
Estimates – The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Revenue Recognition – The Company charges fees to its customers in one of two ways as follows:
1)
|
Fixed Transaction Fee. Fixed transaction fees are a fixed percentage of the purchased invoice and purchase order advance. This percentage does not change from the date the purchased invoice is funded until the date the purchased invoice is collected.
|
2)
|
Variable Transaction Fee. Variable transaction fees are variable based on the length of time the purchased invoice and purchase order advance is outstanding. As specified in its contract with the client, the Company charges variable increasing percentages of the purchased invoice or purchase order advance as time elapses from the purchase date to the collection date.
|
9
For both Fixed and Variable Transaction fees, the Company recognizes revenue by using one of two methods depending on the type of customer. For new customers the Company recognizes revenue using the cost recovery method. For established customers the Company recognizes revenue using the accrual method.
Under the cost recovery method, all revenue is recognized upon collection of the entire amount of purchased accounts receivable.
The Company considers new customers to be accounts whose initial funding has been within the last three months or less. Management believes it needs three months of history to reasonably estimate a customer’s collection period and accrued revenues. If three months of history has a limited number of transactions, the cost recovery method will continue to be used until a reasonable revenue estimate can be made based on additional history. Once the Company obtains sufficient historical experience, it will begin using the accrual method to recognize revenue.
For established customers the Company uses the accrual method of accounting. The Company applies this method by multiplying the historical yield, for each customer, times the amount advanced on each purchased invoice outstanding for that customer, times the portion of a year that the advance is outstanding. The customers’ historical yield is based on the Company’s last six months of experience with the customer along with the Company’s experience in the customer’s industry, if applicable.
The amounts recorded as revenue under the accrual method described above are estimates. As purchased invoices and purchase order advances are collected, the Company records the appropriate adjustments to record the actual revenue earned on each purchased invoice and purchase order advance. Adjustments from the estimated revenue to the actual revenue have not been material.
Retained Interest in Purchased Accounts Receivable – Retained interest in purchased accounts receivable represents the gross amount of invoices purchased and advances on purchase orders from clients less amounts maintained in a reserve account. For factoring transactions, the Company purchases a customer’s accounts receivable and advances them a percentage of the invoice total. The difference between the purchase price and amount advanced is maintained in a reserve account. The reserve account is used to offset any potential losses the Company may have related to the purchased accounts receivable. For purchase order transactions, the company advances and pays for 100% of the product’s cost.
The Company’s factoring and security agreements with their customers include various recourse provisions requiring the customers to repurchase accounts receivable if certain conditions, as defined in the factoring and security agreement, are met.
Senior management reviews the status of uncollected purchased accounts receivable and purchase order advances monthly to determine if any are uncollectible. The Company has a security interest in the accounts receivable and inventory purchased and, on a case-by-case basis, may have additional collateral. The Company files security interests in the property securing their advances. Access to this collateral is dependent upon the laws and regulations in each state where the security interest is filed. Additionally, the Company has varying types of personal guarantees from their customers relating to the purchased accounts receivable and purchase order advances.
Management considered approximately $55,000 of their March 31, 2010 and $57,000 of their December 31, 2009 retained interest in purchased accounts receivable to be uncollectible.
10
Management believes the fair value of the retained interest in purchased accounts receivable approximates its recorded value because of the relatively short term nature of the purchased receivable and the fact that the majority of these invoices have been subsequently collected. As of March 31, 2010, accounts receivable purchased over 90 days old and still accruing fees totaled approximately $250,000.
Property and Equipment – Property and equipment, consisting of furniture and fixtures and computers and software, are stated at cost. Depreciation is provided over the estimated useful lives of the depreciable assets using the straight-line method. Estimated useful lives range from 2 to 7 years.
Goodwill and Intangible Assets – Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of purchased businesses over the fair value of the net assets acquired.
The Company tests the goodwill balance for impairment annually and between annual tests if circumstances would require it. The Company’s goodwill testing is a two-step process with the first step being a test for potential impairment by comparing the fair value of the reporting unit with its carrying amount (including goodwill). If the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds the carrying amount, then no impairment exists. If the carrying amount of the reporting unit exceeds the fair value, the Company completes the second step to measure the amount of the impairment, if any. The Company will complete the annual test for impairment during its fourth quarter in future years.
Identifiable intangible assets are carried at amortized cost. Intangible assets with definite lives are amortized over their useful lives and amortization is computed using the straight line method over their expected useful lives. Long-lived assets are tested for recoverability whenever events of changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable. Impairment losses are recognized if the carrying amount of a long-lived asset is not recoverable and exceeds its fair value.
Advertising Costs – The Company charges advertising costs to expense as incurred. Total advertising costs were approximately $67,000 and $87,000 for the quarters ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.
Earnings per Share – Basic net income per share is computed by dividing the net income for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Dilutive earnings per share include the potential impact of dilutive securities, such as convertible preferred stock, stock options and stock warrants. The dilutive effect of stock options and warrants is computed using the treasury stock method, which assumes the repurchase of common shares at the average market price.
Under the treasury stock method, options and warrants will have dilutive effect when the average price of common stock during the period exceeds the exercise price of options or warrants. For the quarters ending March 31, 2010 and 2009, the average price of common stock was less than the exercise price of the options and warrants.
Also when there is a year-to-date loss from continuing operations, potential common shares should not be included in the computation of diluted earnings per share, since they would have an anti-dilutive effect. For the quarters ending March 31, 2010 and 2009, there was a year-to-date loss from continuing operations.
Stock Based Compensation - The fair value of transactions in which the Company exchanges its equity instruments for employee services (share-based payment transactions) must be recognized as an expense in the financial statements as services are performed.
Compensation expense is determined by reference to the fair value of an award on the date of grant and is amortized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period. We have elected to use the Black-Scholes-Merton (BSM) pricing model to determine the fair value of all stock option awards.
See Note 10 for the impact on the operating results for the quarters ended March 31, 2010 and 2009.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments – The carrying value of cash equivalents, retained interest in purchased accounts receivable, due to financial institution, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximates their fair value.
11
Cash and cash equivalents – Cash and cash equivalents consist primarily of highly liquid cash investment funds with original maturities of three months or less when acquired.
Income Taxes –The Company is a “C” corporation for income tax purposes. In a “C” corporation income taxes are provided for the tax effects of transactions reported in the financial statements plus deferred income taxes related to the differences between financial statement and taxable income.
The primary differences between financial statement and taxable income for the Company are as follows:
·
|
Compensation costs related to the issuance of stock options
|
·
|
Use of the reserve method of accounting for bad debts
|
·
|
Differences in bases of property and equipment between financial and income tax reporting
|
·
|
Net operating loss carryforwards.
|
The deferred tax asset represents the future tax return consequences of utilizing these items. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation reserve, when management is uncertain if the net deferred tax assets will ever be realized.
Prior to January 31, 2007, Anchor Funding Services, LLC was treated as a partnership for Federal and state income tax purposes. Its earnings and losses were included in the personal tax returns of its members; therefore, no provision or benefit from income taxes has been included in those financial statements.
In July 2006, FASB issued guidance for accounting for uncertainty in income tax positions which clarifies the accounting for uncertain tax positions. This FASB requires that the Company recognize in its consolidated financial statements, the impact of a tax position, if that position is more likely than not of being sustained on audit, based on the technical merits of the position.
The Company applied this guidance to all its tax positions, including tax positions taken and those expected to be taken, under the transition provision of the interpretation.
For the quarters ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company recognized no liability for uncertain tax positions.
The Company classifies interest accrued on unrecognized tax benefits with interest expense. Penalties accrued on unrecognized tax benefits are classified with operating expenses.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements –
|
In June 2009, the FASB issued Statement No. 168, The FASB Accounting Standards Codification TM and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“ASC 105,” Generally Accepted Accounting Principles). ASC 105 replaces FASB Statement No. 162. Under the Statement, The FASB Accounting Standards Codification (Codification) has become the source of authoritative U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities. Rules and interpretive releases of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) under authority of federal securities laws are also sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants. On the effective date of this Statement, the Codification will supersede all then-existing non-SEC accounting and reporting standards. All other non-grandfathered non-SEC accounting literature not included in the Codification will become non-authoritative. This Statement is effective for financial statements issued for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. The codification is effective for these third quarter financial statements and the principal impact is limited to disclosures as all future references to authoritative literature will be referenced in accordance with the codification.
In April 2009, the FASB issued FSP SFAS 107-1 and APB 28-1 “Interim Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments” (“ASC 825-10” and “ASC 270-10”, Transition Related to FSP SFAS 107-1 and APB 28-1). ASC 825-10and 270-10 amend the disclosure requirements in ASC 825, “Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments”, and ASC 270, “Interim Financial Reporting,” to require disclosures about the fair value of financial instruments, including disclosure of the method(s) and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value of financial instruments, in interim financial statements as well as in annual financial statements. Previously, these disclosures were required only in annual financial statements. ASC 825-10and 270-10 are effective and should be applied prospectively for financial statements issued for interim and annual reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009. In periods after initial adoption, ASC 825-10and 270-10 require comparative disclosures only for periods ending subsequent to initial adoption and does not require earlier periods to be disclosed for comparative purposes at initial adoption. The Company was not impacted by the adoption of this pronouncement.
12
In May 2009, the FASB issued FASB Statement No. 165, Subsequent Events (“ASC 855”, Subsequent Events), which establishes general standards of and accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. This Statement was effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2009. The Company has complied with the requirements of ASC 855.
In August 2009, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2009-05, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820) – Measuring Liabilities at Fair Value. This ASU provides amendments for fair value measurements of liabilities. It provides clarification that in circumstances in which a quoted price in an active market for the identical liability is not available, a reporting entity is required to measure fair value using one or more techniques. ASU 2009-05 also clarifies that when estimating a fair value of a liability, a reporting entity is not required to include a separate input or adjustment to other inputs relating to the existence of a restriction that prevents the transfer of the liability. ASU 2009-05 is effective for the first reporting period (including interim periods) beginning after issuance or fourth quarter 2009. The Company is assessing the impact of ASU 2009-05 on our financial condition, results of operations and disclosures.
In March 2008, the FASB issued ASC 815 “Derivatives and Hedging” (Formerly Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 161, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities – an amendment to FASB No. 133” (SFAS 161)). ASC 815 requires expanded qualitative, quantitative and credit-risk disclosures about derivatives and hedging activities and their effects on the Company’s financial position, financial performance and cash flows. ASC 815 also clarifies that derivatives are subject to credit risk disclosures as required by SFAS 107, “Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Statements.” ASC 815 is effective for the year beginning January 1, 2009. The adoption of ASC 815is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations.
In February 2008, the FASB issued guidance impacting ASC 860, “Transfers and Servicing.” (formerly FASB Staff Position (FSP) No. FAS 140-3, “Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets and Repurchase Financing Transactions.”) ASC 860requires an initial transfer of a financial asset and a repurchase financing that was entered into contemporaneously or in contemplation of the initial transfer to be evaluated as a linked transaction under SFAS No. 140 unless certain criteria are met, including that the transferred asset must be readily obtainable in the marketplace. ASC 860is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008, and is applicable to new transactions entered into after the date of adoption. Early adoption is prohibited. The adoption of ASC 860 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations.
In December 2007, the FASB issued guidance impacting ASC 805, “Business Combinations” (formerly SFAS No. 141R). ASC 805 modifies the accounting for business combinations and requires, with limited exceptions, the acquiring entity in a business combination to recognize 100 percent of the assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and any non-controlling interest in the acquiree at the acquisition date fair value. In addition, ASC 805 limits the recognition of acquisition-related restructuring liabilities and requires the following: the expense of acquisition-related and restructuring costs and the acquirer to record contingent consideration measured at the acquisition date at fair value. ASC 805 is effective for new acquisitions consummated on or after January 1, 2009. Early adoption is not permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effect of this standard.
In December 2007, the FASB issued guidance impacting ASC 810, Consolidation, which requires all entities to report noncontrolling (minority) interests in subsidiaries as equity in the consolidated financial statements, but separate from the equity of the parent company. The statement further requires that consolidated net income be reported at amounts attributable to the parent and the noncontrolling interest, rather than expensing the income attributable to the minority interest holder. This statement also requires that companies provide sufficient disclosures to clearly identify and distinguish between the interests of the parent company and the interests of the noncontrolling owners, including a disclosure on the face of the consolidated statements for income attributable to the noncontrolling interest holder. This new guidance in ASC 810 was effective for the fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2008 SFAS The adoption of ASC 810 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations.

8. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTION:
|
On December 7, 2009, Brookridge Funding Services, LLC, the Company’s 80% owned subsidiary, acquired certain assets and accounts of Brookridge Funding, LLC. In connection with the closing, Brookridge entered into a credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with MGM Funding, LLC (“MGM”), a limited liability company owned and controlled by the Company’s Co-Chairmen, Morry F. Rubin and George Rubin, and an investor (“Lender”), pursuant to which Lender will provide a $3.7 million senior credit facility to Brookridge. Morry F. Rubin is the managing member of MGM. Loans under the Credit Agreement are secured by all of Brookridge’s assets and bear interest at a 20% annual rate. The Credit Agreement contains standard representations, covenants and events of default for facilities of this type. Occurrence of an event of default allows the Lender to accelerate the payment of the loans and/or terminate the commitments to lend, in addition to other legal remedies, including foreclosing on collateral. At March 31, 2010, Brookridge owed $2,006,025 to the Lender.
16
Also in connection with closing, the company received gross proceeds of $500,004 from the sale of 500,004 shares of common stock and ten year warrants to purchase 2,000,016 shares of common stock exercisable at $1.00 per share (the "Equity Investment"). The Equity Investment was purchased one-third by Morry F. Rubin, one-third by George Rubin and one-third by a principal stockholder, each of whom are owners of the Lender.
Michael P. Hilton and John A. McNiff III, each co-president of an 80% owned subsidiary, Brookridge, each purchased a ten percent interest in Brookridge at a cost of $150,000 and each agreed to guarantee repayment of the Lender's Credit Facility up to an amount equal to $300,000. At Closing, the company entered into employment agreements with Messers Hilton and McNiff and granted each of Messrs. Hilton and McNiff's ten year options to purchase 112,500 shares of our common stock at an exercisable price of $1.00 per share.
On March 23, 2010, the Board of Directors approved Anchor entering into a Promissory Note for up to $2 million from MGM Funding, LLC. Morry F. Rubin is the managing member of MGM. The money to be borrowed under the note is subordinate to Anchor’s accounts receivable credit facility. The Promissory Note is to assist Anchor in funding up to 50% of the funds employed for a specific client that Anchor’s senior lender will only fund up to 50% of the funds employed. The senior lender’s limitation is based on the size of the client’s credit facility. The MGM Promissory Note is a demand note. In addition, when Anchor typically has significant invoice purchase requests from clients, MGM periodically makes short-term loans to Anchor Funding Services, Inc. which then advances the funds to Anchor Funding Services, LLC. Anchor does not receive same day availability of funds from its senior lender for its daily client invoice purchases requiring it to use its own capital and MGM to meet client demand. These loans are payable on demand and bear interest at 20% per annum. At March 31, 2010, Anchor owed $175,000 to MGM.

Beginning November 1, 2009, the company entered into a 24 month lease for office space in Boca Raton, FL. The monthly rental is approximately $1,300.
In connection with Brookridge’s acquisition of a purchase order finance company, Brookridge assumed the seller’s lease for office space in Danbury, CT. The lease is for a monthly rental of $3,585 and expires on September 30, 2014.
The rental expense for the quarters ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 was approximately $21,700 and $34,800, respectively.
15. ACQUSITIONS:
On December 4, 2009, the Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Asset Purchase Agreement”) with Brookridge Funding, LLC (“Seller”) providing for the acquisition of certain assets and accounts of Seller’s purchase order finance business (the “Acquired Business”). The closing of the acquisition took place on December 7, 2009. In connection with the transaction, the Company and Seller’s principals invested $1.5 million in Brookridge Funding Services, LLC, the Company’s newly formed 80% owned subsidiary which operates the Acquired Business. The purchase price for the Acquired Business was $2,389,824 million representing the fair market value of the Acquired Business’s purchased accounts receivable and purchase order advances.
21
Since the purchase price equaled the fair market value of the net assets acquired, no Goodwill was recorded for the initial transaction.
For five years, the Sellers are to receive 20% of Brookridge’s net operating income, paid quarterly, up to a total of $800,000. Based on discounted cash flow and net present value analyses, the Company has recorded $480,000 of Goodwill and Intangibles and a corresponding liability in connection with contingent payments due to the Sellers. The estimated fair values are subject to change pending a final analysis of the total purchase price and the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Goodwill from this transaction will be deductible.
16. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS:
In April 2010, the Company’s 80% owned subsidiary, Brookridge, incurred a credit loss of approximately $670,000 due to what appears to be a fraud committed by a Brookridge client. Anchor’s interest in this loss is 80% or approximately $536,000. Brookridge financed inventory purchased by this client who sold the inventory for the benefit of another company not funded by Brookridge resulting in the loss of Brookridge’s collateral rights in the inventory. As a result, Brookridge is recording a charge of $670,000 for credit losses in April, 2010. Brookridge’s March 31, 2010 outstanding advances to this client were subsequently paid; the charge relates to advances made in April 2010. Brookridge is reviewing all of its options and will pursue all collection remedies available to it under its purchase order and factoring agreements, including enforcement of its rights under a personal guaranty by the client’s principal.
The credit loss adversely impacts Brookridge’s capital and liquidity. We believe that if MGM Funding, LLC continues to fund Brookridge and based on its current cash position, Brookridge can meet its cash needs for the next 12 to 15 months.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
|
You should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations together with our consolidated financial statements and the related notes appearing at the end of our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009. Some of the information contained in this discussion and analysis or set forth elsewhere in this form 10-Q, including information with respect to our plans and strategy for our business and related financing, includes forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. You should review the “Risk Factors” section of our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009 for a discussion of important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the results described in or implied by the forward-looking statements contained in the following discussion and analysis.
Executive Overview
Our business objective is to create a well-recognized, national financial services firm for small businesses providing accounts receivable funding (factoring), outsourcing of accounts receivable management including collections and the risk of customer default and other specialty finance products including, but not limited to purchase order funding and government contract funding. For certain service businesses, Anchor also provides back office support including payroll, payroll tax compliance and invoice processing services. We provide our services to clients nationwide and may expand our services internationally in the future. We plan to achieve our growth objectives as described below through a combination of strategic and add-on acquisitions of other factoring and related specialty finance firms that serve small businesses in the United States and Canada and internal growth through mass media marketing initiatives. Our principal operations for Anchor are located in Charlotte, North Carolina. Brookridge’s operations are in Danbury, Connecticut and we maintain an executive office in Boca Raton, Florida which includes the Company’s sales and marketing functions.
Summary of Critical Accounting Policies
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations discusses our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements 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 revenue and expenses during the reporting period. On an on-going basis, management evaluates its estimates and judgments, including those related to credit provisions, intangible assets, contingencies, litigation and income taxes. Management bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience as well as various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. Management believes the following critical accounting policies, among others, reflect the more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our financial statements.
23
Summary of Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Principles of Consolidation - The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Anchor Funding Services, Inc., its wholly owned subsidiary, Anchor Funding Services, LLC and its 80%owned subsidiary Brookridge Funding Services, LLC as of March 31, 2010. The consolidated statement of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2010 includes the results of Brookridge Funding Services, LLC, and Anchor Funding Services, LLC. The consolidated statement of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2009 does not include the results of Brookridge Funding Services, LLC.
Estimates – The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Revenue Recognition – The Company charges fees to its customers in one of two ways as follows:
3) Fixed Transaction Fee. Fixed transaction fees are a fixed percentage of the purchased invoice and purchase order advance. This percentage does not change from the date the purchased invoice is funded until the date the purchased invoice is collected.
4) Variable Transaction Fee. Variable transaction fees are variable based on the length of time the purchased invoice and purchase order advance is outstanding. As specified in its contract with the client, the Company charges variable increasing percentages of the purchased invoice or purchase order advance as time elapses from the purchase date to the collection date.
For both Fixed and Variable Transaction fees, the Company recognizes revenue by using one of two methods depending on the type of customer. For new customers the Company recognizes revenue using the cost recovery method. For established customers the Company recognizes revenue using the accrual method.
Under the cost recovery method, all revenue is recognized upon collection of the entire amount of purchased accounts receivable.
The Company considers new customers to be accounts whose initial funding has been within the last three months or less. Management believes it needs three months of history to reasonably estimate a customer’s collection period and accrued revenues. If three months of history has a limited number of transactions, the cost recovery method will continue to be used until a reasonable revenue estimate can be made based on additional history. Once the Company obtains sufficient historical experience, it will begin using the accrual method to recognize revenue.
For established customers the Company uses the accrual method of accounting. The Company applies this method by multiplying the historical yield, for each customer, times the amount advanced on each purchased invoice outstanding for that customer, times the portion of a year that the advance is outstanding. The customers’ historical yield is based on the Company’s last six months of experience with the customer along with the Company’s experience in the customer’s industry, if applicable.
24
The amounts recorded as revenue under the accrual method described above are estimates. As purchased invoices and purchase order advances are collected, the Company records the appropriate adjustments to record the actual revenue earned on each purchased invoice and purchase order advance. Adjustments from the estimated revenue to the actual revenue have not been material.
Retained Interest in Purchased Accounts Receivable – Retained interest in purchased accounts receivable represents the gross amount of invoices purchased and advances on purchase orders from clients less amounts maintained in a reserve account. For factoring transactions, the Company purchases a customer’s accounts receivable and advances them a percentage of the invoice total. The difference between the purchase price and amount advanced is maintained in a reserve account. The reserve account is used to offset any potential losses the Company may have related to the purchased accounts receivable. For purchase order transactions the company advances and pays for 100% of the product’s cost.
The Company’s factoring and security agreements with their customers include various recourse provisions requiring the customers to repurchase accounts receivable if certain conditions, as defined in the factoring and security agreement, are met.
Senior management reviews the status of uncollected purchased accounts receivable and purchase order advances monthly to determine if any are uncollectible. The Company has a security interest in the accounts receivable and inventory purchased and, on a case-by-case basis, may have additional collateral. The Company files security interests in the property securing their advances. Access to this collateral is dependent upon the laws and regulations in each state where the security interest is filed. Additionally, the Company has varying types of personal guarantees from their customers relating to the purchased accounts receivable and purchase order advances.
Management considered approximately $55,000 of their March 31, 2010 and $57,000 of their December 31, 2009 retained interest in purchased accounts receivable to be uncollectible.
Management believes the fair value of the retained interest in purchased accounts receivable approximates its recorded value because of the relatively short term nature of the purchased receivable and the fact that the majority of these invoices have been subsequently collected. As of March 31, 2010, accounts receivable purchased over 90 days old and still accruing fees totaled approximately $249,964.
Property and Equipment – Property and equipment, consisting of furniture and fixtures and computers and software, are stated at cost. Depreciation is provided over the estimated useful lives of the depreciable assets using the straight-line method. Estimated useful lives range from 2 to 7 years.
Goodwill and Intangible Assets – Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of purchased businesses over the fair value of the net assets acquired.
The Company tests the goodwill balance for impairment annually and between annual tests if circumstances would require it. The Company’s goodwill testing is a two-step process with the first step being a test for potential impairment by comparing the fair value of the reporting unit with its carrying amount (including goodwill). If the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds the carrying amount, then no impairment exists. If the carrying amount of the reporting unit exceeds the fair value, the Company completes the second step to measure the amount of the impairment, if any. The Company will complete the annual test for impairment during its fourth quarter in future years
Identifiable intangible assets are carried at amortized cost. Intangible assets with definite lives are amortized over their useful lives and amortization is computed using the straight line method over their expected useful lives. Long-lived assets are tested for recoverability whenever events of changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable. Impairment losses are recognized if the carrying amount of a long-lived asset is not recoverable and exceeds its fair value.
25
Advertising Costs – The Company charges advertising costs to expense as incurred. Total advertising costs were approximately $67,000 and $87,000 for the quarters ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.
Earnings per Share – Basic net income per share is computed by dividing the net income for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Dilutive earnings per share include the potential impact of dilutive securities, such as convertible preferred stock, stock options and stock warrants. The dilutive effect of stock options and warrants is computed using the treasury stock method, which assumes the repurchase of common shares at the average market price.
Under the treasury stock method, options and warrants will have dilutive effect when the average price of common stock during the period exceeds the exercise price of options or warrants. For the quarters ending March 31, 2010 and 2009, the average price of common stock was less than the exercise price of the options and warrants.
Also when there is a year-to-date loss from continuing operations, potential common shares should not be included in the computation of diluted earnings per share, since they would have an anti-dilutive effect. For the quarters ending March 31, 2010 and 2009, there was a year-to-date loss from continuing operations.
Stock Based Compensation - The fair value of transactions in which the Company exchanges its equity instruments for employee services (share-based payment transactions) must be recognized as an expense in the financial statements as services are performed.
Compensation expense is determined by reference to the fair value of an award on the date of grant and is amortized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period. We have elected to use the Black-Scholes-Merton (BSM) pricing model to determine the fair value of all stock option awards.
See Note 10 for the impact on the operating results for the quarters ended March 31, 2010 and 2009.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments – The carrying value of cash equivalents, retained interest in purchased accounts receivable, due to financial institution, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximates their fair value.
Cash and cash equivalents – Cash and cash equivalents consist primarily of highly liquid cash investment funds with original maturities of three months or less when acquired.
Income Taxes –The Company is a “C” corporation for income tax purposes. In a “C” corporation income taxes are provided for the tax effects of transactions reported in the financial statements plus deferred income taxes related to the differences between financial statement and taxable income.
The primary differences between financial statement and taxable income for the Company are as follows:
· Compensation costs related to the issuance of stock options
· Use of the reserve method of accounting for bad debts
· Differences in bases of property and equipment between financial and income tax reporting
· Net operating loss carryforwards.
The deferred tax asset represents the future tax return consequences of utilizing these items. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation reserve, when management is uncertain if the net deferred tax assets will ever be realized.
Prior to January 31, 2007, Anchor Funding Services, LLC was treated as a partnership for Federal and state income tax purposes. Its earnings and losses were included in the personal tax returns of its members; therefore, no provision or benefit from income taxes has been included in those financial statements.
In July 2006, FASB issued guidance for accounting for uncertainty in income tax positions which clarifies the accounting for uncertain tax positions. This FASB requires that the Company recognize in its consolidated financial statements, the impact of a tax position, if that position is more likely than not of being sustained on audit, based on the technical merits of the position.
.
26
The Company applied this guidance to all its tax positions, including tax positions taken and those expected to be taken, under the transition provision of the interpretation.
For the quarters ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company recognized no liability for uncertain tax positions.
The Company classifies interest accrued on unrecognized tax benefits with interest expense. Penalties accrued on unrecognized tax benefits are classified with operating expenses.
Results of Operations
Three Months Ended March 31, 2010 vs. Three Months Ended March 31, 2009.
Finance revenues increased 98.4% for the three months ended March 31, 2010 to $802,019 compared to $404,278 for the comparable period of the prior year. The change in revenue was primarily due to additional revenues of approximately $348,667 from Anchor’s new Brookridge subsidiary. In addition, as of March 31, 2010, the Company had 130 active clients compared to 94 active clients as of March 31, 2009.
The Company had net interest expense of $174,844 for the three months ended March 31, 2010 compared to interest expense of $12,899 for the three months ended March 31, 2009. This change is primarily the result of the increase in cost of funds under Anchor’s senior credit facility and the additional interest expense totaling $93,736 incurred by Anchor and Brookridge for their funding transactions from an affiliated party. See "Note 8.".
The Company had a benefit for credit losses of $1,298 for the three months ended March 31, 2010 compared to a provision for credit losses for the three months ended March 31, 2009 of $6,063.
Operating expenses for three months ended March 31, 2010 were $703,997 compared to $711,197 for the three months ended March 31, 2009, a 1.0% decrease. Anchor’s cost saving measures starting in the fourth quarter of 2009, resulted in a decrease of approximately $151,785 of operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2010. This decrease was offset by Brookridge’s operating expenses of approximately $144,585 for the three months ended March 31, 2010.
Net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2010 was $(91,611) compared to $(325,881) for the three months ended March 31, 2009. This decrease in net loss is attributable to the combination of increased revenues from Brookridge and Anchor’s reduced operating expenses.

Second Quarter Credit Loss
In April 2010, the Company’s 80% owned subsidiary, Brookridge, incurred a credit loss of approximately $670,000 due to what appears to be a fraud committed by a Brookridge client. Anchor’s interest in this loss is 80% or approximately $536,000. Brookridge financed inventory purchased by this client who sold the inventory for the benefit of another company not funded by Brookridge resulting in the loss of Brookridge’s collateral rights in the inventory. As a result, Brookridge is recording a charge of $670,000 for credit losses in April, 2010. Brookridge’s March 31, 2010 outstanding advances to this client were subsequently paid; the charge relates to advances made in April 2010. Brookridge is reviewing all of its options and will pursue all collection remedies available to it under its purchase order and factoring agreements, including enforcement of its rights under a personal guaranty by the client’s principal.
The credit loss adversely impacts Brookridge’s capital and liquidity. We believe that if MGM Funding, LLC continues to fund Brookridge and based on its current cash position, Brookridge can meet its cash needs for the next 12 to 15 months.
Liquidity
Cash Flow Summary
Cash Flows from Operating Activities
Net cash used by operating activities was $2,036,571 for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and was primarily due to our net loss for the period and cash used in acquiring operating assets, primarily to purchase accounts receivable. Cash used for operating assets and liabilities was primarily due to an increase of $2,562,934 in retained interest in accounts receivable resulting significantly from the addition of Brookridge’s interest in accounts receivable. Increases and decreases in prepaid expenses, accounts payable, accrued payroll and accrued expenses were primarily the result of timing of payments and receipts.
Net cash used by operating activities was $373,560 for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and was primarily due to our net loss for the period and cash used in acquiring operating assets, primarily to purchase accounts receivable. Cash used for operating assets and liabilities was primarily due to an increase of $107,760 in retained interest in accounts receivable. Increases and decreases in prepaid expenses, accounts payable, accrued payroll and accrued expenses were primarily the result of timing of payments and receipts.
Cash Flows from Investing Activities
For the three months ended March 31, 2010, net cash used in investing activities was $8,162 for the purchase of property and equipment.
For the three months ended March 31, 2009, net cash used in investing activities was $9,874 for the purchase of property and equipment.
Cash Flows from Financing Activities
Net cash provided by financing activities was $1,846,124 for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and was primarily due to increased borrowings from an affiliated lender to fund the purchase of accounts receivable and make purchase order advances.
Net cash provided by financing activities was $351,717 for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and was primarily due to increased borrowings from a financial institution to fund the purchase of accounts receivable.
2007 Financing
Between January 31, 2007 and April 5, 2007, we raised $6,712,500 in gross proceeds from the sale of 1,342,500 shares of our Series 1 Convertible Preferred Stock to expand our operations both internally and through possible acquisitions as more fully described under “Description of Business.”
Capital Resources
We have the availability of a $7 million (expandable to $9 million) senior accounts receivable facility through November 2010 with an institutional asset based lender which advances funds against up to 90% of “eligible net factored accounts receivable” (minus client reserves as lender may establish in good faith) as defined in Anchor’s agreement with its institutional lender. This facility is secured by our assets, and contains certain standard covenants, representations and warranties for loans of this type. In the event that we fail to comply with the covenant(s) and the lender does not waive such non-compliance, we could be in default of our credit facility, which could subject us to penalty rates of interest and accelerate the maturity of the outstanding balances. We also have entered into a Senior Credit Agreement with MGM Funding, LLC, an affiliated entity owned by our co-chairmen of the Company and an outside investor, to provide loans directly to the operations of our Brookridge subsidiary. Loans made by this facility bear interest at the rate of 20% per annum and cannot exceed a maximum of $3.7 million dollars. The obligations to MGM are secured by the assets of Brookridge. The Credit Agreement contains standard representations, warrants and events of default for facilities of this type. Occurrences of an event of default under either one of our credit facilities allows the lender to accelerate the payment of the loans and/or terminate the commitments to lend, in addition to other legal remedies, including foreclosure on collateral. In the event we are not able to maintain adequate credit facilities for our factoring, purchase order financing and acquisition needs on commercially reasonable terms, our ability to operate our business and complete one or more acquisitions would be significantly impacted and our financial condition and results of operations could suffer. We can provide no assurances that replacement facilities will be obtained by us on terms satisfactory to us, if at all.
On March 23, 2010, the Board of Directors approved Anchor entering into a Promissory Note for up to $2 million from MGM Funding, LLC. Morry F. Rubin is the managing member of MGM. The money to be borrowed under the note is subordinate to Anchor’s accounts receivable credit facility. The Promissory Note is to assist Anchor in funding up to 50% of the funds employed for a specific client that Anchor’s senior lender will only fund up to 50% of the funds employed. The senior lender’s limitation is based on the size of the client’s credit facility. The MGM Promissory Note is a demand note. In addition, when Anchor typically has significant invoice purchase requests from clients, MGM periodically makes short-term loans to Anchor Funding Services, Inc. which then advances the funds to Anchor Funding Services, LLC. Anchor does not receive same day availability of funds from its senior lender for its daily client invoice purchases requiring it to use its own capital and MGM to meet client demand. These loans are payable on demand and bear interest at 20% per annum. At March 31, 2010, Anchor owed $175,000 to MGM.
Based on our current cash position and our Credit Facilities, we believe can meet our cash needs for the next 12 to 15 months and support our anticipated organic growth. In the event we acquire another company, we may need additional equity or subordinated debt financing and/or a new credit facility to complete the transaction and our daily cash needs and liquidity could change based on the needs of the combined companies. At that time, in the event we are not able to obtain adequate new facilities and/or financing to complete the acquisition (if needed) and to operate the combined companies financing needs on commercially reasonable terms, our ability to operate and expand our business would be significantly impacted and our financial condition and results of operations could suffer.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
|
Market risk is the risk of loss arising from adverse changes in market rates and prices, such as interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates and commodity prices. Our primary exposure to market risk is interest rate risk associated with our short term money market investments. The Company does not have any financial instruments held for trading or other speculative purposes and does not invest in derivative financial instruments, interest rate swaps or other investments that alter interest rate exposure. The Company does not have any credit facilities with variable interest rates.
ITEM 4.
|
CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
|
The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Company's Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company's management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure based closely on the definition of "disclosure controls and procedures" in Rule 13a-15(e). In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. The Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company's management, including the Company's Chief Executive Officer and the Company's Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures. Based on the foregoing, the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level at the end of our most recent quarter. There have been no changes in the Company's disclosure controls and procedures or in other factors that could affect the disclosure controls subsequent to the date the Company completed its evaluation. Therefore, no corrective actions were taken.
