FORWARD-LOOKING
STATEMENTS
Certain
statements made in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are “forward-looking
statements” regarding the plans and objectives of management for future
operations and market trends and expectations. Such statements involve known
and
unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual
results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future
results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such
forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements included herein
are
based on current expectations that involve numerous risks and uncertainties.
Our
plans and objectives are based, in part, on assumptions involving the continued
expansion of our business. Assumptions relating to the foregoing involve
judgments with respect to, among other things, future economic, competitive
and
market conditions and future business decisions, all of which are difficult
or
impossible to predict accurately and many of which are beyond our control.
Although we believe that our assumptions underlying the forward-looking
statements are reasonable, any of the assumptions could prove inaccurate and,
therefore, there can be no assurance that the forward-looking statements
included in this report will prove to be accurate. In light of the significant
uncertainties inherent in the forward-looking statements included herein, the
inclusion of such information should not be regarded as a representation by
us
or any other person that our objectives and plans will be achieved. We undertake
no obligation to revise or update publicly any forward-looking statements for
any reason. The terms “we”, “our”, “us”, or any derivative thereof, as used
herein refer to Infinite Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and its
predecessors.

INFINITE
GROUP, INC.
Notes
to Consolidated Financial Statements –
(Unaudited)
Note
1. Basis of Presentation
The
accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Infinite Group,
Inc.
(“Infinite Group, Inc.” or the “Company”), included herein have been prepared by
the Company in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in
the
United States of America (GAAP) for interim financial information and in
accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include
all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial
statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary
for a fair presentation have been included. All such adjustments are of a normal
recurring nature. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements
should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial
statements and the notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form
10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2007 filed with the United States (U.S.)
Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Results of consolidated operations
for
the nine months ended September 30, 2008 are not necessarily indicative of
the
operating results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2008.
The consolidated financial statements herein include the accounts of the Company
and its wholly owned subsidiaries. The subsidiaries are inactive. All material
inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
Note
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
There
are
several accounting policies that the Company believes are significant to the
presentation of its consolidated financial statements. These policies require
management to make complex or subjective judgments about matters that are
inherently uncertain. Note 3 to the Company’s audited consolidated financial
statements for the year ended December 31, 2007 presents a summary of
significant accounting policies.
Recent
Accounting Pronouncements
Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, Fair Value
Measurements
Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, Fair Value Measurements - In
September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements
(SFAS No. 157). Among other requirements, SFAS No. 157 defines fair
value and establishes a framework for measuring fair value and also expands
disclosure about the use of fair value to measure assets and liabilities. The
Company was required to adopt SFAS No. 157 on January 1, 2008. Subsequent
to the Standard's issuance, the FASB issued an exposure draft that provides
for
a deferral for the implementation of SFAS 157 for non-financial assets and
liabilities which are not measured at fair value on a recurring basis (at least
annually) until fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008. The
Company’s adoption of this standard was limited to financial assets and
liabilities and did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial
condition or results of operations. The Company is still in the process of
evaluating the impact of this standard with respect to its effects on
nonfinancial assets and liabilities and has not yet determined the impact that
it will have on the financial statements upon full adoption.
Financial
Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities
(“SFAS No. 159”)
In
February 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial
Assets and Financial Liabilities (“SFAS No. 159”). SFAS No. 159 permits
companies to elect to follow fair value accounting for certain financial assets
and liabilities in an effort to mitigate volatility in earnings without having
to apply complex hedge accounting provisions. The standard also establishes
presentation and disclosure requirements designed to facilitate comparison
between entities that choose different measurement attributes for similar types
of assets and liabilities. SFAS No. 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning
after November 15, 2007. The
Company has not yet adopted the fair value option permitted by SFAS No.
159.
The
Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“SFAS
No. 162”)
In
May
2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 162, The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted
Accounting Principles. The purpose of this statement is to improve financial
reporting by providing a consistent framework for determining applicable
accounting principles to be used in the preparation of financial statements
presented in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the
U.S. SFAS No. 162 will become effective 60 days after the SEC’s approval. The
Company believes that the adoption of this standard on its effective date will
not have a material effect on its consolidated financial
statements.

Note
3. Stock Option Plans
The
Company’s board of directors and stockholders have approved stock options plans
covering up to an aggregate of 5,228,833 shares. Such options may be designated
at the time of grant as either incentive stock options or nonqualified stock
options. Stock based compensation includes expense charges related to all
stock-based awards to employees, directors and consultants. Such awards include
options, warrants and stock grants.
Effective
January 1, 2006, the Company adopted the provisions of Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 123 (revised 2004), “Share-Based Payment”, (SFAS 123R)
using the modified prospective transition method and the Black-Scholes analysis.
The Company used volatility of 50% when computing the value of stock options
and
warrants during the nine months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007. Each option
awarded in 2008 and 2007 has a ten year exercise term. The expected dividend
yield is zero percent. The
expected life of the options was assumed to be the ten year contractual term.
For options issued after September 30, 2008 the term is assumed to be 5.75
years
using the simplified method for plain vanilla options as stated in SEC Staff
Accounting Bulletin No. 110 to improve the accuracy of this assumption while
simplifying record keeping requirements until more detailed information about
the Company’s exercise behavior is available. The
risk-free rate for periods within the contractual life of the option is based
on
the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant and ranged from
3.74% to 4.10% for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 and 4.52% to 4.75%
for the nine months ended September 30, 2007.
The
Company recorded expense for options, warrants and common stock issued to
employees and independent service providers for the three months and nine months
ended September 30, 2008 and 2007 as follows. There was no impact from SFAS
123R
on net loss per share for the three or nine months ended September 30, 2008
and
2007.

During
the nine months ended September 30, 2008, warrants were exercised for 122,500
shares of common stock on a cashless basis resulting in the Company’s net
issuance of 68,696 shares of common stock.
On
August
1, 2008, the terms or a warrant issued to a business development consultant
were
modified such that a specific performance criterion was eliminated and 100,000
options vest on periodic schedule through July 1, 2009. During the three months
ended September 30, 2008, the Company recorded $19,886 of expense associated
with such change.
Note
5. Earnings Per Share
Basic
net
income (loss) per share is based on the weighted average number of common shares
outstanding during the periods presented. Diluted income (loss) per share is
based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, as well
as
dilutive potential common shares which, in the Company’s case, comprise shares
issuable under stock options, warrants and convertible notes payable. Stock
options and warrants with exercise prices that exceeded the average fair market
value of common stock had an antidilutive effect and therefore, were excluded
from the computation of net income (loss) per share. The treasury stock method
is used to calculate dilutive shares, which reduces the gross number of dilutive
shares by the number of shares purchasable from the proceeds of the options
assumed to be exercised. In a loss period, the calculation for basic and diluted
net loss per share is considered to be the same, as the impact of potential
common shares is anti-dilutive.
If
the
Company had generated earnings, common stock equivalents would have been added
to the weighted average shares outstanding during the three and nine months
ended September 30, 2008 and 2007 as set forth below. These additional shares
represent the assumed exercise of common stock options, warrants and convertible
notes payable whose exercise price is less than the average common stock price
during the period. The proceeds of the exercise are assumed to be used to
purchase common stock for treasury and the incremental shares are added to
the
weighted average shares outstanding.

6. Employee
Pension Plan
Prior
to
December 30, 2002, the Company owned 100% of the common stock of Osley &
Whitney, Inc. (O&W). On December 30, 2002, the Company sold 100% of the
O&W common stock to a third party, but continued to act as the sponsor of
the O&W Retirement Plan (O&W Plan). Although the Company continued to
act as the sponsor of the O&W Plan after the sale, during 2007 management
determined that the Company had no legal obligation to do so.
During
2007, the Company submitted information to the Department of Treasury (DOT)
advocating that it had no legal obligation to act as the sponsor of the O&W
Plan to ascertain whether the DOT concurred or disagreed with this position.
The
DOT is presently reviewing this information. If the DOT does not concur with
this position, the Company may become obligated for additional estimated excise
taxes on accumulated unfunded O&W Plan contributions for the plan years
ended December 31, 2006 and 2007 of approximately $135,000 and $157,000,
respectively, totaling $292,000, which has not been accrued because of the
determination that the Company has no legal obligation and the Company’s belief
that the likelihood is remote that it will be required to pay these excise
taxes. Further, if the DOT does not concur with this position, the Company
may
be required to pay interest on these excise taxes and potentially incur
additional excise taxes up to 100% of all required plan contributions. No such
excise taxes or related interest have been assessed and no portion of this
amount has been accrued at September 30, 2008 since the Company believes that
the likelihood is remote that it will be required to pay these excise taxes.
If
the DOT does not concur with the Company’s position, the Company intends to
pursue all appropriate further avenues to prevail in its position. During 2006,
the Pension Benefit Guarantee Corporation placed a lien on all of the Company’s
assets to secure the contributions due to the O&W Plan. This lien is
subordinate to liens that secure accounts receivable financing and certain
notes
payable.
At
September 30, 2008 the Company had accrued liabilities of $2,564,170 related
to
the O&W Plan and accumulated other comprehensive loss of $2,227,689 which
was recorded as a reduction of stockholders’ deficiency. The market value of the
O&W Plan assets decreased from $3,387,749 at December 31, 2007 to $2,655,620
at September 30, 2008. The decrease was due to investment losses of $367,853,
benefit payments of $329,194 and expenses paid of $35,082.

periodic pension cost recorded in the accompanying statements of operations
includes the following components of expense (benefit) for the periods

Sales
Sales
for
the three months ended September 30, 2008 were $2,478,978, an increase of
$415,344 or 20.1% as compared to sales for the three months ended September
30,
2007 of $2,063,644. Sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 were
$7,109,403, an increase of $1,101,089 or 18.3% as compared to sales for the
nine
months ended September 30, 2007 of $6,008,314. A significant portion of this
increase was a result of sales from new projects including the second phase
of a
significant server virtualization project for a major establishment of the
U.S.
Government which began in the third quarter of 2007 and was substantially
completed in the second quarter of 2008. Other virtualization projects for
new
clients began in the second and third quarters of 2008. We use virtualization
software provided by third party vendors such as VMware, to enable our clients
to run multiple operating systems on one physical machine and therefore a
broader, richer set of business applications.
We
are
actively pursuing opportunities to develop additional sales from new and
existing target markets. In November 2007, we hired a new business development
employee to focus efforts toward increasing sales in the server virtualization
arena. Our new director of virtualization services is recognized as one
of
the nation’s foremost technical experts who is consistently sought for speaking
engagements at significant events and by the major industry trade journals.
In
June
2008, we hired a new business development employee for our regional office
in
Jackson, Mississippi to pursue state and local government business opportunities
within the Gulf Coast region. In September 2008, we hired a new business
development employee in North Carolina to pursue primarily commercial IT
opportunities in the southeast U.S. We are also channeling energies towards
forming alliances with large systems integrators, who are mandated by federal
policy to direct defined percentages of their work to small business
subcontractors. In addition, we are currently working on proposals for contract
awards that we believe will enhance our position as a government contractor.
Cost
of Services and Gross Profit
Cost
of
services represents the cost of employee services related to the IT Services
Group. Cost of services for the three months ended September 30, 2008 was
$1,795,927 or 72.4% of sales as compared to $1,570,556 or 76.1% of sales for
the
three months ended September 30, 2007. Gross profit was $683,051 or 27.6% of
sales for the three months ended September 30, 2008 compared to $493,088 or
23.9% of sales for the three months ended September 30, 2007. Cost of services
for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 was $5,164,602 or 72.6% of sales
as
compared to $4,322,505 or 71.9 % of sales for the nine months ended September
30, 2007. Gross profit was $1,944,801 or 27.4% of sales for the nine months
ended September 30, 2008 compared to $1,685,809 or 28.1% of sales for the nine
months ended September 30, 2007.
The
increase in the amount of gross profit in 2008 is due to increased sales volume
which was offset by a change in the mix of our contracts as higher margin
projects were completed and new projects with slightly lower margins were added
during 2008.
11
Although
our objective is to maintain an overall gross margin of approximately 30%,
in
the future we may submit bids on new work with lower gross profit margins to
generate opportunities for long-term, larger volume contracts and more stable
sales.
General
and Administrative Expenses
General
and administrative expenses include corporate overhead such as compensation
and
benefits for administrative and finance personnel, rent, insurance, professional
fees, travel, and office expenses. General and administrative expenses for
the
three months ended September 30, 2008 were $265,694 which was an increase of
$26,804 or 11.2% as compared to $238,890 for the three months ended September
30, 2007. As a percentage of sales, general and administrative expense was
10.7%
for the three months ended September 30, 2008 and 11.6% for the three months
ended September 30, 2007.
General
and administrative expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2008
increased by $148,479 or 23.5% from $631,370 for the nine months ended September
30, 2007 to $779,849 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008. As a
percentage of sales, general and administrative expenses were 11.0% for the
nine
months ended September 30, 2008 and 10.5% for the nine months ended September
30, 2007.
General
and administrative expenses increased beginning in July 2007 when we
reclassified expenses associated with the reassignment of our consultant,
Intelligent Consulting Corporation (ICC), from research and development to
general and administrative expenses when the TouchThru™ development activities
ended. We have contracted with ICC on a month-to-month basis to provide
consulting services related to business development and business
strategies, special projects and other general corporate matters. In addition,
incentive compensation expense associated with our personnel recruiting began
in
the fourth quarter of 2007 as a result of our hiring a full-time recruiting
director responsible for recruiting new billable employees.
We
anticipate that general and administrative expenses will increase as we continue
to grow our business and incur travel and other expenses associated with
recruiting additional personnel and managing a larger business. However, we
expect that general and administrative expenses will remain relatively stable
as
a percentage of sales as our sales increase.
Defined
Benefit Pension Plan Expenses
Defined
benefit pension plan expenses include expenses (including pension expense,
professional services, and interest costs) associated with the O&W Plan of
$67,082 for the three months ended September 30, 2008 and $84,017 for the three
months ended September 30, 2007, a decrease of $16,935. We incurred expenses
of
$166,074 and $273,035 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007,
respectively.
During
the nine months ended September 30, 2007, we incurred legal and professional
fees in connection with advocating our legal position with the appropriate
regulatory authorities. Fees in 2008 are substantially reduced since we are
awaiting a response from the regulatory authorities to our submission of
information in 2007.
Selling
Expenses
For
the
three months ended September 30, 2008, we incurred selling expenses of $296,597
associated with expanding our IT Services Group business as compared to $415,325
for the three months ended September 30, 2007, a decrease of $118,728 or 28.6%.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2008 we incurred selling expenses of
$1,045,747 associated with expanding our IT Services Group business compared
to
$1,118,089 for the nine months ended September 30, 2007, a decrease of $72,342
or 6.5%.
The
decreases for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008 are principally
due to changes in certain business development personnel. In the August 2007,
we
added a business development employee to prepare proposals for new projects.
In
November 2007, we hired a new business development employee who is now our
director of virtualization services. In June 2008, we hired a new business
development employee for our regional office in Jackson, Mississippi to pursue
state and local government business opportunities within the Gulf Coast region.
In September 2008, we hired a new business development employee in North
Carolina to pursue primarily commercial IT opportunities in the southeast U.S.
These employee additions were offset during 2008 by certain business development
employee terminations including one in our virtualization practice and two
in
our federal services practice, which positions were filled by existing
employees.
We
experienced a decrease in consulting expense of approximately $52,000 for the
nine months ended September 30, 2008, as a result of management’s decision to
reduce the use and rate of compensation to independent consultants. For the
three months ended September 30, 2008 we experienced an increase in consulting
expense of approximately $5,300 due to amending the terms of a warrant issued
to
a business development consultant and recording $19,886 of expense associated
with such change, which offset reductions in the use of other consultants.
12
Depreciation
Expenses
Depreciation
expense was $9,201 and $7,892 for the three months ended September 30, 2008
and
2007, respectively, and was $27,523 and $26,009 for the nine months ended
September 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively. In the normal course of business,
certain assets, such as personal computers and related software, are upgraded
and replaced.
Research
and Development Expenses
During
the third quarter of 2007, we terminated development activities and related
expenses for TouchThru™ and reassigned an independent consultant from these
development efforts to other business activities. As a result, we incurred
no
research and development expenses in 2008. For the three and nine months ended
September 30, 2007 we recorded $1,553 and $88,807 of research and development
expenses. These expenses were principally related to the development of an
access control terminal and related software called TouchThru™. TouchThru™ is a
self-contained terminal enabling physical access control using biometric
identification. It incorporates fingerprint matching technology licensed from
Ultra-Scan Corporation, a private technology company headquartered in Buffalo,
New York.
Operating
Income (Loss)
For
the
three months ended September 30, 2008 our operating income was $44,477 compared
to an operating loss of $(254,589) for the three months ended September 30,
2007; an improvement of $299,066. This is attributable to an increase in sales
of $415,334 which contributed an additional $189,963 of gross profit and a
decrease in operating expenses of $109,103.
For
the
nine months ended September 30, 2008 our operating loss was $(74,392) compared
to an operating loss of $(451,501) for the nine months ended September 30,
2007;
an improvement of $377,109. This is attributable to an increase in sales of
$1,101,089 which contributed an additional $258,992 of gross profit and a
decrease in operating expenses of $118,117. We believe that our operations,
as
currently structured, together with our current financial resources, will result
in improved financial performance in future periods.
Net
Interest Expense
Net
interest expense consists of interest income offset by interest expense on
indebtedness and fees for financing accounts receivable invoices. Net interest
expense was $71,725 for the three months ended September 30, 2008 compared
to
net interest expense of $69,624 for the three months ended September 30, 2007.
Net interest expense was $227,054 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008
compared to net interest expense of $199,413 for the nine months ended September
30, 2007. The increase in net interest expense of $27,641 for the nine months
ended September 30, 2008 was principally due to an increase in the length of
term and volume of accounts receivable invoices that were financed in 2008.
We
incurred new indebtedness in June 2008 of $200,000 which is being used for
working capital purposes.
Other
Income (Expense)
Other
income (expense) was $0 and $(1,634) for the three months ended September 30,
2008 and 2007, respectively. Other income (expense) was $0 and $ 4,957 for
the
nine months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively. Other income
(expense) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007 was as a result
of the sale of certain equipment.
Income
Taxes
Income
tax expense was $0 for the three months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007,
respectively. Income tax expense was $615 and $605 for the nine months ended
September 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively, consisting of state
taxes.
Net
Loss
For
the
three months ended September 30, 2008, we
recorded a net loss in the amount of $(27,248) or $(.00) per share compared
to a
net loss of $(325,847) or $(.01) per share for the three months ended September
30, 2007.
For the
nine months ended September 30, 2008, we
recorded a net loss in the amount of $(302,061) or $(.01) per share compared
to
a net loss of $(646,562) or $(.03) per share for the nine months ended September
30, 2007.
Stock-Based
Compensation
The
following table provides pro forma non-GAAP financial data after adjustment
for
the impact that the adoption of SFAS 123R had on our financial statements
including net loss. Pro forma data is calculated by adding back to net loss
non-cash compensation expense recorded according to “Share-Based Payment”, (SFAS
123R) which relates to stock options.
13
Pro
forma
data is provided to investors to supplement the results of operations reported
in accordance with GAAP. Management believes pro forma data is useful to help
investors analyze the operating trends of the business before and after the
adoption of SFAS 123R and to assess the relative underlying performance of
the
business. Management believes that pro forma data provides an additional tool
for investors to use in comparing its financial results with other companies
in
the industry. By excluding non-cash charges such as SFAS 123R stock-based
compensation, investors can evaluate our operations and can compare our results
on a more consistent basis to the results of other companies in the industry.
Management also uses pro forma data to evaluate potential acquisitions,
establish internal budgets, and evaluate performance of our business.
We
consider pro forma data to be an important indicator of our operational strength
and performance of our business and a useful measure of our historical and
prospective operating trends. However, there are significant limitations to
the
use of pro forma data since it may exclude amounts that impact our profitability
and operating cash flows. We believe that these limitations are offset by
clearly identifying the difference between the two measures. Consequently,
pro
forma data should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net
income (loss) presented in accordance with GAAP. Pro forma data, as presented
by
us, may not be comparable with similarly named measures provided by other
entities.

We
recorded expense of $38,483 and $74,488 for equity instruments issued to
consultants for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively.
Liquidity
and Capital Resources
At
September 30, 2008, we had cash of $39,307 available for our working capital
needs and planned capital asset expenditures. Our primary liquidity needs are
the financing of working capital and capital expenditures. Our primary source
of
liquidity is cash provided by operations and our $800,000 credit facility.
At
September 30, 2008, we had approximately $313,000 of availability under this
line and had adequate accounts receivable to use the remaining available line.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2008, cash used by operating
activities was $118,860.
At
September 30, 2008, we had a working capital deficit of approximately $2.54
million and a current ratio of .34. Our objective is to improve our working
capital position from profitable operations. The O&W Plan current
liabilities have a significant impact on our working capital. Without the
current liabilities of the O&W Plan of approximately $2.3 million, working
capital would have been a deficit of approximately $283,000. If we incur
operating losses or continue to incur net losses, we may continue to experience
working capital shortages that impair our business operations and growth
strategy. Based on current level of operations, we have sufficient cash flow
and
short-term financing sources, through sales with recourse of accounts
receivable, to fund our payroll and accounts payable on a timely basis.
During
2007 and 2008, we have financed the activity of our IT Services Group through
the issuance of notes payable to third parties, including related parties and
financing through sales with recourse of our accounts receivable. In June 2008,
we raised $200,000 through a working capital loan from a third
party.
We
have
used our common stock and common stock options and warrants to provide
compensation to certain employees and consultants and to fund liabilities.
14
Future
Trends
We
believe that our operations, as currently structured, together with our current
financial resources, will result in improved financial performance in future
periods.
There
is
no assurance, that our current resources or cash flow from operations will
be
adequate to fund the liabilities under the O&W Plan if the DOT does not
concur with our position or that we will be successful in raising additional
working capital when necessary. Our failure to raise necessary working capital
could force us to curtail operations, which would have a material adverse effect
on our financial condition and results of operations.
Cash
Flows from Operating Activities
During
the nine months ended September 30, 2008, cash used in operations was $118,859
compared with cash used in operations of $29,855 for the nine months ended
September 30, 2007. Our operating cash flow is primarily affected by the overall
profitability of our contracts, our ability to invoice and collect from our
clients in a timely manner, and our ability to manage our vendor payments.
We
bill our clients weekly or monthly after services are performed, depending
on
the contract terms. Our accounts receivable increased principally due to the
growth of sales in the period. The increase in liabilities is primarily due
to
increased accounts payable and accrued pension and retirement expenses.
Cash
Flows from Investing Activities
Cash
used
in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 was $17,339
compared with $18,671 for the nine months ended September 30, 2007. Cash used
in
investing activities was primarily for capital expenditures for computer
hardware and software. We do not have any plans for significant capital
expenditures in the near future.
Cash
Flows from Financing Activities
Cash
provided by financing activities was $147,225 for the nine months ended
September 30, 2008 due to $200,000 from a new working capital loan, $16,667
from
the exercise of an option for common stock offset by principal payments of
$69,442 on notes payable. In comparison, for the nine months ended September
30,
2007 we used cash from financing activities of $16,617 principally for principal
payments on notes payable. We anticipate that we will use approximately $4,300
through the next twelve months for funding current maturities of long-term
debt
obligations.
Credit
Agreement
We
have a
line of credit of up to $800,000 with a financial institution that allows us
to
sell selected accounts receivable invoices to the financial institution with
full recourse against us. We pay fees based on the length of time that the
invoice remains unpaid. At September 30, 2008, we had approximately $313,000
of
availability under this line and had adequate accounts receivable to use the
remaining available line.
We
believe the capital resources available to us under our line of credit and
cash
from our operations are adequate to fund our ongoing operations and to support
the internal growth we expect to achieve for at least the next 12 months.
However, if we experience significant growth in our sales, we believe that
this
may require us to increase our financing line or obtain additional working
capital from other sources to support our sales growth. We anticipate financing
our external growth from acquisitions and our longer-term internal growth
through one or more of the following sources: cash from operations; additional
borrowing; issuance of equity; use of our existing revolving credit facility;
or
a refinancing of our credit facilities.
Osley
& Whitney, Inc. Retirement Plan
As
of
December 31, 2004, we sold or closed all of our prior businesses. Currently,
our
sole business is providing IT consulting services. The following discussion
of
the O&W Plan relates to the business that was closed and sold and its
current effect on our operations and financial position.
Prior
to
December 30, 2002, we owned 100% of the common stock of Osley & Whitney,
Inc. (O&W). On December 30, 2002, we sold 100% of the common stock of
O&W to a third party, but continued to act as the sponsor of the O&W
Plan. Although we continued to act as the sponsor of the O&W Plan after the
sale, during 2007 it was determined that we had no legal obligation to do so.
15
During
2007, we submitted information advocating this position to the Department of
Treasury (DOT) to ascertain whether they concur or disagree with this position.
The DOT is presently reviewing this information. If the DOT does not concur
with
this position, we may become obligated for additional estimated excise taxes
on
accumulated unfunded O&W Plan contributions for the plan years ended
December 31, 2006 and 2007 of approximately $135,000 and $157,000, respectively,
totaling $292,000, which has not been accrued because of the determination
of no
legal obligation and our belief that the likelihood is remote that we will
be
required to pay these excise taxes. Further, if the DOT does not concur with
this position, we may be required to pay interest on these excise taxes and
potentially incur additional excise taxes up to 100% of all required plan
contributions. No such excise taxes have been assessed and no portion of this
amount has been accrued at September 30, 2008 since we believe that the
likelihood is remote that we will be required to pay these excise taxes. If
the
DOT does not concur with this position, we intend to pursue all appropriate
further avenues to prevail on our position.
If
it is
determined that we are responsible for O&W Plan deficiencies, then we will
be required to make contributions for deficiencies in 2004 through 2008 and
we
will be required to fund O&W Plan deficiencies in future periods. We did not
make any O&W Plan contributions in 2004, 2006, 2007 or 2008. During 2005, we
made contributions valued at approximately $181,000. We currently do not have
the funds available to make the required cash contributions which currently
approximate $1.8 million. As a result of our legal position, we do not
anticipate making any contributions to the Plan during the year ending December
31, 2008. We recorded defined benefit pension expense (including professional
services and interest costs) of $166,074 and $273,035 for the nine months ended
September 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively.
During
2006, the Pension Benefit Guarantee Corporation placed a lien on all of our
assets to secure the contributions due to the O&W Plan. This lien is
subordinate to liens that secure accounts receivable financing and certain
notes
payable.
At
September 30, 2008, we had accrued liabilities of $2,564,170 related to the
O&W Plan and accumulated other comprehensive loss of $2,227,689 which was
recorded as a reduction of stockholders’ deficiency. The market value of the
O&W Plan assets decreased from $3,387,749 at December 31, 2007 to $2,655,620
at September 30, 2008. The decrease was due to investment losses of $367,853,
benefit payments of $329,194 and expenses paid of $35,082.

Item
4T. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation
of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.
Our
management, with the participation of our president and our chief financial
officer, carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of our “disclosure
controls and procedures” (as defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the
“Exchange Act”) Rules 13a-15(e) and 15-d-15(e)) as of the end of the period
covered by this report (the “Evaluation Date”). Based upon that evaluation, our
president and our chief financial officer concluded that, as of the Evaluation
Date, our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that
information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit
under the Exchange Act (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported,
within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (ii) is
accumulated and communicated to our management, including our president and
our
chief financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding
required disclosure.
Changes
in Internal Control over Financial Reporting.
There
were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred
during the period covered by this report that has materially affected, or is
reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial
reporting.

OTHER
INFORMATION
Item
1A. Risk Factors.
You
should consider the risk factors included in our Annual Report on Form 10-KSB
for the year ended December 31, 2007 in evaluating our business and us.
Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us, which we currently
deem immaterial or that are similar to those faced by other companies in our
industry or business in general, such as competitive conditions, may also impair
our business operations. If any of the results of the risks occur, our business,
financial condition, or results of operations could be materially adversely
affected.
Item
2. Unregistered
Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.
On
September 29, 2008, we issued 135,000 unregistered shares of our common stock
to
an accredited investor upon conversion of $6,750 of accrued interest payable
on
outstanding notes payable in accordance with the terms of such
notes.
16
On
July
10, 2008, we issued 200,000 unregistered shares of our common stock to an
accredited investor upon conversion of $10,000 of principal on outstanding
notes
payable in accordance with the terms of such notes.
These
transactions were exempt from registration, as they were nonpublic offerings
or
transactions made pursuant to Sections 4(2) and 4(6) of the Securities Act
of
1933, as amended. All shares issued in the transactions described hereinabove
bore an appropriate restrictive legend.
