GLOBAL INVESTOR SERVICES, INC.
(FORMERLY THERETIREMENTSOLUTION.COM, INC.)
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 2008

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

A summary of the significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of the accompanying financial statements follows:

Business and basis of Presentation

Global Investor Services, Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated on August 10, 2005 under the laws of the State of Nevada. On September 16, 2006, the Company changed its name to TheRetirementSolution.Com, Inc. and on October 1, 2008 to Global Investor Services, Inc. The Company currently markets directly and through its marketing partners as well as online, certain investor products and services that provide financial and educational information to its prospective customers and to its subscribers. During the year ended March 31, 2008, the Company transitioned from a development stage enterprise to an operating company. While the Company has generated revenues from its sale of products, the Company has incurred expenses, and sustained losses. Consequently, its operations are subject to all risks inherent in the establishment of a new business enterprise. As of September 30, 2008, the Company has accumulated losses of $18,092,906.

On August 30, 2006, the Company entered into a Share Purchase Agreement (“Agreement”) with Voxpath Holdings, Inc. (“Voxpath”). Prior to the merger, Voxpath was an inactive corporation with no significant assets and liabilities. As a result of the Agreement, there was a change in control of the public entity. In accordance with SFAS No. 141, Voxpath was the acquiring entity. While the transaction is accounted for using the purchase method of accounting, in substance the Agreement is a recapitalization of Voxpath’s capital structure. For accounting purposes, the Company accounted for the transaction as a reverse acquisition and Voxpath is the surviving entity. The value of the net assets acquired was $0. The Company did not recognize goodwill or any intangible assets in connection with the transaction. Effective with the Agreement, all previously outstanding shares of common stock were exchanged for an aggregate of 99,999,998 shares of the Company’s common stock. The value of the stock issued was the historical cost of the Company’s net tangible assets, which did not differ materially from their fair value. The total consideration paid was $86,135.

During the year ended March 31, 2008, the Company acquired Investment Tools and Training, LLC (“ITT); a Utah limited liability company founded on November 9, 2006 and Razor Data, LLC (“Razor”); a Utah limited liability company formed July 23, 2002.

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Voxpath Holdings, Inc., ITT and Razor. All significant inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

Merger and Corporate Restructure

On August 30, 2006, the Company entered into a Share Purchase Agreement (“Agreement”) with Voxpath Holdings, Inc. (“Voxpath”). As a result of the Agreement, there was a change in control of the public entity. In accordance with SFAS No. 141, Voxpath was the acquiring entity. While the transaction is accounted for using the purchase method of accounting, in substance the Agreement is a recapitalization of Voxpath’s capital structure.

For accounting purposes, the Company accounted for the transaction as a reverse acquisition and Voxpath is the surviving entity. The total purchase price and carrying value of the net assets acquired was $0. The Company did not recognize goodwill or any intangible assets in connection with the transaction. The Company was an inactive corporation with no significant assets and liabilities.

Effective with the Agreement, all previously outstanding shares of common stock were exchanged for an aggregate of 99,999,998 shares of the Company’s common stock. The value of the stock issued was the historical cost of the Company’s net tangible assets, which did not differ materially from their fair value.

The total consideration paid was $86,135 and the significant components of the transaction are as follows:

Cash paid

50,000

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Acquisition of ITT

On January 15, 2008, the Company completed the purchase of all the outstanding membership interests of ITT. The total purchase price was $18,650,000, consisting of an aggregate of 66,600,000 shares of the Company’s common stock and the issuance of convertible promissory notes of $2,000,000.

An aggregate of 54,600,000 shares of the Company’s common stock was issued at the time of closing with the remaining 12,000,000 shares of common stock to be issued over a four year period. The common stock, valued at the date of closing, was $16,650,000 and was not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

The promissory notes bear interest at 6% per annum, mature on April 15, 2009 and convert, at the holders’ option, at a conversion price of $0.20 per share.

In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 141, Business Combinations (“SFAS No. 141”), the purchase method of accounting was used to account for the acquisition of ITT. The results of operations of ITT have been included in the Consolidated Statements of Losses since the date of acquisition.
 
In accordance with SFAS No. 141, the total purchase price was allocated to the estimated fair value, as determined by management, of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, as follows:
 
Cash
 
$
83,807
 
Current assets acquired
   
32,832
 
Software
   
1,676,000
 
Liabilities assumed
   
(100,000
)
Goodwill acquired
   
16,957,361
 
Total purchase price
 
$
18,650,000
 

The Company identified software as identifiable intangible assets with estimated life of 3 years.

Goodwill in the amount of $16,957,361 represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net identifiable tangible and intangible assets acquired and their associated costs and expenses.

Acquisition of Razor

On January 15, 2008, the Company completed the purchase of substantially all of the assets of Razor and assumed specified liabilities. The total purchase price was $12,500,000, consisting of an aggregate of 38,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock and the issuance of convertible promissory notes of $3,000,000.

An aggregate of 32,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock was issued at the time of closing with the remaining 6,000,000 shares of common stock to be issued on the second and third anniversary of the closing. The common stock, valued at the date of closing, was $9,500,000 and was not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

The promissory notes bear interest at 6% per annum, mature on April 15, 2009 and convert, at the holders’ option, at a conversion price of $0.20 per share.

Goodwill in the amount of $10,275,812 represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net identifiable tangible and intangible assets acquired and their associated costs and expenses.
 
Revenue Recognition

For revenue from product sales and services, the Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104, Revenue Recognition ("SAB104"), which superseded Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101, Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements ("SAB101"). SAB 101 requires that four basic criteria must be met before revenue can be recognized: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (2) delivery has occurred or services have been rendered; (3) the selling price is fixed and determinable; and (4) collectibility is reasonably assured. Determination of criteria (3) and (4) are based on management's judgments regarding the fixed nature of the selling prices of the products delivered and the collectibility of those amounts. Provisions for discounts and rebates to customers, estimated returns and allowances, and other adjustments are provided for in the same period the related sales are recorded. The Company defers any revenue for which the product has not been delivered or is subject to refund until such time that the Company and the customer jointly determine that the product has been delivered or no refund will be required. SAB 104 incorporates Emerging Issues Task Force 00-21 ("EITF 00-21"), Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements. EITF 00-21 addresses accounting for arrangements that may involve the delivery or performance of multiple products, services and/or rights to use assets. The effect of implementing EITF 00-21 on the Company's financial position and results of operations was not significant.

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Revenue arises from subscriptions to the websites/software, workshops, online workshops and training and coaching/counseling services because the payments are received before the service has been rendered.  We sell our products separately and in various bundles that contain multiple deliverables that include website/data subscriptions, educational workshops, online workshops and training, one-on-one coaching and counseling sessions, along with other products and services. In accordance with EITF 00-21, sales arrangements with multiple deliverables are divided into separate units of accounting if the deliverables in the arrangement meet the following criteria: (i) the product has value to the customer on a standalone basis; (ii) there is objective and reliable evidence of the fair value of undelivered items; and (iii) delivery or performances of any undelivered item is probable and substantially in our control. The fair value of each separate element is generally determined by prices charged when sold separately. In certain arrangements, we offer these products bundled together.  If there is any discount from the combined fair value of the individual elements, the discount is allocated to the portion of the revenues that is attributed to the online courses and training. As per EITF 00-21, if fair value of all undelivered elements in an arrangement exists, but fair value does not exist for a delivered element, then revenue is recognized using the residual method. Under the residual method, the fair value of undelivered elements is deferred and the remaining portion of the arrangement fee (after allocation of 100 percent of any discount to the delivered item) is recognized as revenue.  The deferral policy for each of the different types of revenues is summarized as follows:

Product
 
Recognition Policy
Live Workshops and Workshop Certificates
 
Deferred and recognized as the workshop is provided or certificate expires
Online training and courses
 
Deferred and recognized a.) as the services are delivered, or b.) when usage thresholds are met, or c.) on a straight-line basis over the initial product period
Coaching/Counseling services
 
Deferred and recognized as services are delivered, or on a straight-line basis over the initial product period
Website/data fees (monthly)
 
Not Deferred, recognized in the month delivered
Website/data fees (pre-paid subscriptions)
 
Deferred and recognized on a straight-line basis over the subscription period
 
As of September 30, 2008 and March 31, 2008, the Company’s deferred revenue was $334,777 and $804,452, respectively

Use of Estimates
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and 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. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost. When retired or otherwise disposed, the related carrying value and accumulated depreciation are removed from the respective accounts and the net difference less any amount realized from disposition, is reflected in earnings. For financial statement purposes, property and equipment are recorded at cost and depreciated using the straight line method over their estimated useful lives as follows:

 
5 years
Software 
 
3 to 7 years

Advertising Costs

The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred. Advertising expense was $2,545 and $2,641 for the six month period ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

Research and Development

The Company accounts for research and development costs in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 2 (“SFAS 2”), “Accounting for Research and Development Costs.” Under SFAS 2, all research and development costs must be charged to expense as incurred. Accordingly, internal research and development costs are expensed as incurred. Third-party research and developments costs are expensed when the contracted work has been performed or as milestone results have been achieved. Company-sponsored research and development costs related to both present and future products are expensed in the period incurred. For the six month period ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, the Company’s expenditures on research and product development were immaterial.

Reclassification

Certain reclassifications have been made in prior year’s financial statements to conform to classifications used in the current year.

Intangible Assets and Goodwill

The Company accounts for acquisitions in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 141, “Business Combinations.” The Company assigns to all identifiable assets acquired (including intangible assets), and to all identifiable liabilities assumed, a portion of the cost of the acquired company equal to the estimated fair value of such assets and liabilities at the date of acquisition. The Company records the excess of the cost of the acquired company over the sum of the amounts assigned to identifiable assets acquired less liabilities assumed, if any, as goodwill.

As a result of the acquisitions of ITT and Razor on January 15, 2008, the Company acquired intangible assets in the aggregate amount of $30,652,920.

The Company allocated $2,920,000 and $499,747 to identifiable intangible assets including a developed software and customer lists, respectively. The remaining $27,233,173 was allocated to goodwill.

The Company amortized its identifiable intangible assets using the straight-line method over their estimated period of benefit.  The estimated useful lives of the developed software and the customer lists are three years. The Company periodically evaluates the recoverability of intangible assets and takes into account events or circumstances that warrant revised estimates of useful lives or indicate that impairment exists.  

The Company accounts for and reports acquired goodwill and other intangible assets under SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets (“SFAS No. 142”). In accordance with SFAS No. 142, the Company tests its intangible assets for impairment on an annual basis and when there is reason to suspect that their values have been diminished or impaired. Any write-downs will be included in results from operations.

The Company does not amortize goodwill. The Company recorded goodwill in the amount of $27,233,173 as a result of the acquisition of Razor Data & ITT during the year ended March 31, 2008, the Company has determined that the value of goodwill has not been impaired based upon managements assessment of operating results and forecasted discounted cash flow.

Impairment of long lived assets

The Company has adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144 (SFAS 144). The Statement requires that long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles held and used by the Company be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Events relating to recoverability may include significant unfavorable changes in business conditions, recurring losses, or a forecasted inability to achieve break-even operating results over an extended period. The Company evaluates the recoverability of long-lived assets based upon forecasted undiscounted cash flows. Should impairment in value be indicated, the carrying value of intangible assets will be adjusted, based on estimates of future discounted cash flows resulting from the use and ultimate disposition of the asset. SF AS No. 144 also requires assets to be disposed of is reported at the lower of the carrying amount or the fair value less costs to sell.

Fair value of financial instruments

Fair value estimates discussed herein are based upon certain market assumptions and pertinent information available to management as of September 30, 2008 and March 31, 2008. The respective carrying value of certain on-balance-sheet financial instruments approximated their fair values. These financial instruments include cash and accounts payable. Fair values were assumed to approximate carrying values for cash and payables because they are short term in nature and their carrying amounts approximate fair values or they are payable on demand.

Concentrations of Credit Risk

Financial instruments and related items which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash, cash equivalents and trade receivables. The Company places its cash and temporary cash investments with credit quality institutions. At times, such investments may be in excess of the FDIC insurance limit. The Company periodically reviews its trade receivables in determining its allowance for doubtful accounts. The allowance for refunds was $799 and $6,200 at September 30, 2008 and March 31, 2008, respectively.

Website Development Costs

The Company recognizes website development costs in accordance with Emerging Issue Task Force ("EITF") No. 00-02, "Accounting for Website Development Costs." As such, the Company expenses all costs incurred that relate to the planning and post implementation phases of development of its website. Direct costs incurred in the development phase are capitalized and recognized over the estimated useful life. Costs associated with repair or maintenance for the website are included in cost of net revenues in the current period expenses. During the six month period ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, the Company did not capitalize any costs associated with the website development.

Software Development Costs

The Company accounts for software development costs intended for sale in accordance with SFAS No. 86, Accounting for Costs of Computer Software to be Sold, Leased, or Otherwise Marketed (“SFAS 86”). SFAS No. 86 requires product development costs to be charged to expense as incurred until technological feasibility is attained and all other research and development activities for the hardware components of the product have been completed. Technological feasibility is attained when the planning, design and testing phase related to the development of the Company’s software has been completed and the software has been determined viable for its intended use, which typically occurs when beta testing commences.

Stock-Based Compensation
 
On January 1, 2006 the company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (revised 2004) "Share-Based Payment" (SFAS 123 (R)) which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all share-based payment awards made to employees and directors including employee stock options and employee stock purchases related to a Employee Stock Purchase Plan based on the estimated fair values. SFAS 123 (R) supersedes the company's previous accounting under Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" ("APB 25") for the periods beginning fiscal 2006.

The company adopted SFAS 123 (R) using the modified prospective transition method, which required the application of the accounting standard as of January 1, 2006. The company's Financial Statements as of and for the year ended March 31, 2007 reflects the impact of SFAS 123(R). In accordance with the modified prospective transition method, the company's Financial Statements for the prior periods have not been restated to reflect, and do not include the impact of SFAS 123 (R). Stock based compensation expense recognized under SFAS 123 (R) for the year ended March 31, 2007 was $1,440,776.

For the six month period ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, the Company did not grant stock options to employees and consultants. The fair value of options granted in previous years vesting during the six month period ended September 30, 2008 and 2007 of $412,200 was recorded as a current period charge to earnings.

Segment Information

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 131, “Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information” (“SFAS 131”) establishes standards for reporting information regarding operating segments in annual financial statements and requires selected information for those segments to be presented in interim financial reports issued to stockholders. SFAS 131 also establishes standards for related disclosures about products and services and geographic areas. Operating segments are identified as components of an enterprise about which separate discrete financial information is available for evaluation by the chief operating decision maker, or decision-making group, in making decisions how to allocate resources and assess performance. The information disclosed herein materially represents all of the financial information related to the Company’s principal operating segment.

Income taxes

The Company follows Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No.109, Accounting for Income Taxes (SFAS No.109) for recording the provision for income taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are computed based upon the difference between the financial statement and income tax basis of assets and liabilities using the enacted marginal tax rate applicable when the related asset or liability is expected to be realized or settled. Deferred income tax expenses or benefits are based on the changes in the asset or liability during each period. If available evidence suggests that it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized, a valuation allowance is required to reduce the deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized. Future changes in such valuation allowance are included in the provision for deferred income taxes in the period of change. Deferred income taxes may arise from temporary differences resulting from income and expense items reported for financial accounting and tax purposes in different periods. Deferred taxes are classified as current or non-current, depending on the classification of assets and liabilities to which they relate. Deferred taxes arising from temporary differences that are not related to an asset or liability are classified as current or non-current depending on the periods in which the temporary differences are expected to reverse

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities – Including an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 115” (“SFAS No. 159”).  SFAS No. 159 permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value.  Most of the provisions of SFAS No. 159 apply only to entities that elect the fair value option. However, the amendment to SFAS No. 115 “Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities” applies to all entities with available-for-sale and trading securities.  SFAS No. 159 is effective as of the beginning of an entity’s first fiscal year that begins after November 15, 2007.  Early adoption is permitted as of the beginning of a fiscal year that begins on or before November 15, 2007, provided the entity also elects to apply the provision of SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements”.  The adoption of SFAS No. 159 did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements (continued)

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141(R), "Business Combinations" ("SFAS No. 141(R)"), which establishes principles and requirements for how an acquirer recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any noncontrolling interest in an acquiree, including the recognition and measurement of goodwill acquired in a business combination. SFAS No. 141R is effective as of the beginning of the first fiscal year beginning on or after December 15, 2008. Earlier adoption is prohibited and the Company is currently evaluating the effect, if any that the adoption will have on its consolidated financial position results of operations or cash flows.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, "Noncontrolling Interest in Consolidated Financial Statements, an amendment of ARB No. 51” (“SFAS No. 160”), which will change the accounting and reporting for minority interests, which will be recharacterized as noncontrolling interests and classified as a component of equity within the consolidated balance sheets. SFAS No. 160 is effective as of the beginning of the first fiscal year beginning on or after December 15, 2008. Earlier adoption is prohibited and the Company is currently evaluating the effect, if any that the adoption will have on its consolidated financial position results of operations or cash flows.

In June 2007, the Accounting Standards Executive Committee issued Statement of Position 07-1, “Clarification of the Scope of the Audit and Accounting Guide Investment Companies and Accounting by Parent Companies and Equity Method Investors for Investments in Investment Companies” (“SOP 07-1”). SOP 07-1 provides guidance for determining whether an entity is within the scope of the AICPA Audit and Accounting Guide Investment Companies (the “Audit Guide”). SOP 07-1 was originally determined to be effective for fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2007, however, on February 6, 2008, FASB issued a final Staff Position indefinitely deferring the effective date and prohibiting early adoption of SOP 07-1 while addressing implementation issues.

In December 2007, the FASB ratified the consensus in EITF Issue No. 07-1, “Accounting for Collaborative Arrangements” (EITF 07-1). EITF 07-1 defines collaborative arrangements and requires collaborators to present the result of activities for which they act as the principal on a gross basis and report any payments received from (made to) the other collaborators based on other applicable authoritative accounting literature, and in the absence of other applicable authoritative literature, on a reasonable, rational and consistent accounting policy is to be elected. EITF 07-1 also provides for disclosures regarding the nature and purpose of the arrangement, the entity’s rights and obligations, the accounting policy for the arrangement and the income statement classification and amounts arising from the agreement. EITF 07-1 will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, which will be the Company’s fiscal year 2009, and will be applied as a change in accounting principle retrospectively for all collaborative arrangements existing as of the effective date. The Company has not yet evaluated the potential impact of adopting EITF 07-1 on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In March 2008, the FASB” issued SFAS No. 161, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities – an amendment to FASB Statement No. 133” (“SFAS No. 161”).  SFAS No. 161 is intended to improve financial standards for derivative instruments and hedging activities by requiring enhanced disclosures to enable investors to better understand their effects on an entity's financial position, financial performance, and cash flows.  Entities are required to provide enhanced disclosures about: (a) how and why an entity uses derivative instruments; (b) how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under SFAS No. 133 and its related interpretations; and (c) how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entity’s financial position, financial performance, and cash flows.  It is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008, with early adoption encouraged.  We are currently evaluating the impact of SFAS No. 161, if any, will have on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements (continued)

In April 2008, the FASB issued FSP No. FAS 142-3,“Determination of the Useful Life of Intangible Assets”. This FSP amends the factors that should be considered in developing renewal or extension assumptions used to determine the useful life of a recognized intangible asset under SFAS No. 142,“Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets”.  We are required to adopt FSP 142-3 on September 1, 2009, earlier adoption is prohibited.  The guidance in FSP 142-3 for determining the useful life of a recognized intangible asset shall be applied prospectively to intangible assets acquired after adoption, and the disclosure requirements shall be applied prospectively to all intangible assets recognized as of, and subsequent to, adoption.  We are currently evaluating the impact of FSP 142-3 on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In May 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 162, "The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles" ("SFAS No. 162").  SFAS No. 162 identifies the sources of accounting principles and the framework for selecting the principles used in the preparation of financial statements of nongovernmental entities that are presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (the GAAP hierarchy).  SFAS No. 162 will become effective 60 days following the SEC's approval of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board amendments to AU Section 411, "The Meaning of Present Fairly in Conformity With Generally Accepted Accounting Principles."  We do not expect the adoption of SFAS No. 162 will have a material effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In May 2008, the FASB issued FSP Accounting Principles Board ("APB") 14-1 "Accounting for Convertible Debt Instruments That May Be Settled in Cash upon Conversion (Including Partial Cash Settlement) " ("FSP APB 14-1").  FSP APB 14-1 requires the issuer of certain convertible debt instruments that may be settled in cash (or other assets) on conversion to separately account for the liability (debt) and equity (conversion option) components of the instrument in a manner that reflects the issuer's non-convertible debt borrowing rate.  FSP APB 14-1 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008 on a retroactive basis.  We are currently evaluating the potential impact, if any, of the adoption of FSP APB 14-1 on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

SFAS No. 163. In May 2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued Statement on Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 163, “Accounting for Financial Guarantee Insurance Contracts – an interpretation of SFAS No. 60” (“SFAS 163”). The FASB believes that diversity exists in practice in accounting for financial guarantee insurance contracts by insurance enterprises under FASB Statement No. 60, “Accounting and Reporting by Insurance Enterprises.” That diversity results in inconsistencies in the recognition and measurement of claim liabilities because of differing views about when a loss has been incurred under SFAS No. 5 “Accounting for Contingencies.” SFAS No. 163 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and all interim periods within those fiscal years, except for some disclosures about the insurance enterprise’s risk-management activities. The Company is not an insurance enterprise and thus standard will not have any impact on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB (including its Emerging Issues Task Force), the AICPA, and the SEC did not, or are not believed by management to, have a material impact on the Company’s present or future consolidated financial statements.

Fully-diluted weighted-average common shares outstanding are not utilized in the calculation of loss per common share as the effect would be anti-dilutive, decreasing the reported loss per common share.

13. INCOME TAXES

The Company has adopted Financial Accounting Standard No. 109 which requires the recognition of deferred tax liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statement or tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax liabilities and assets are determined based on the difference between financial statements and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. Temporary differences between taxable income reported for financial reporting purposes and income tax purposes are insignificant.

At September 30, 2008 the Company has available for federal income tax purposes a net operating loss carryforward of approximately $18,000,000 expiring in the year 2026, that may be used to offset future taxable income. The Company has provided a valuation reserve against the full amount of the net operating loss benefit, since in the opinion of management based upon the earnings history of the Company; it is more likely than not that the benefits will not be realized. Due to significant changes in the Company's ownership, the future use of its existing net operating losses may be limited. Components of deferred tax assets as of September 30, 2008 are as follows:

15. GOING CONCERN MATTERS

The Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared using generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a going concern which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has incurred significant losses which have resulted in an accumulated deficit of $18,092,906 at September 30, 2008 which raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of asset carrying amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Continuation as a going concern is dependent upon obtaining additional capital and upon the Company’s attaining profitable operations. The Company will require a substantial amount of additional funds to complete the development of its products, to build a sales and marketing organization, and to fund additional losses which the Company expects to incur over the next few years. The management of the Company intends to seek additional funding through a Private Placement Offering which will be utilized to fund product development and continue operations. The Company recognizes that, if it is unable to raise additional capital, it may find it necessary to substantially reduce or cease operations.
 
16. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On October 6, 2008, the Company received $220,000 in advances for marketing under the same terms and conditions as described in Note 5 above

In October 2008, the Company issued 13,375 shares of its common stock in payment of accrued interest on convertible debentures.

Our selling, general and administrative expenses are up significantly compared to same period last year primarily due to our acquisitions of ITT and Razor. Additionally our stock based compensation for the three month period ended September 30, 2008 was $377,916 compared to $206,100 for the three month period ended September 30, 2007.

Depreciation and amortization increase is due to the additional assets acquired with the acquisition of ITT and Razor which represented 99% of the increase.

Our selling, general and administrative expenses are down 11% compared to same period last year primarily due stock based compensation paid in the six months ended September 30, 2007 net with the increase from our acquisitions of ITT and Razor.

Depreciation and amortization increase is due to the additional assets acquired with the acquisition of ITT and Razor which represented 38,317% of the increase.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of September 30, 2008, the Company had a working capital deficit of $7,977,084. The Company generated a deficit in cash flow from operating activities of $1,289,481 for the six month period September 30, 2008. This deficit is primarily attributable to the Company's net loss from operations of $4,422,278 and is partially offset by following: A charge for the value of options issued for services of $412,200, recognition of an imbedded beneficial conversion of convertible debentures of $642,477, stock issued for services of $1,162,550, amortization of deferred compensation costs of $89,664, amortization and depreciation expense of $469,069, and changes in the balances of current assets and liabilities. Accounts receivable, unbilled revenue and other current assets decreased by 890,182, net. Accounts payable and accrued liabilities decreased by $95,251 and deferred revenue decreased by $469,575.

The Company met its cash requirements during the six month period ended September 30, 2008 through net proceeds from convertible debentures of $275,000, advances for marketing of $549,561 and a preferred stock subscription of $500,000 net with repayments of related party advances and other notes payable of $127,912.

While we have raised capital to meet our working capital and financing needs in the past, additional financing is required in order to meet our current and projected cash flow deficits from operations and development. We are seeking financing, which may take the form of debt, convertible debt or equity, in order to provide the necessary working capital. There is no guarantee that we will be successful in raising the funds required.

We estimate that during the next twelve months we will need approximately $2,000,000 in additional capital to fully implement our business plan. Our business plan encompasses investing behind our business development strategy, our marketing campaigns and in building our business operations. As of the date of this filing, we have minimal operating capital to continue our business and marketing initiatives for the next twelve months. If we are not successful in generating sufficient cash flow from operations or in raising sufficient capital resources to finance our growth, on terms acceptable to us, this could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, liquidity and financial condition, we will have to adjust our planned operations and development on a more limited scale and, ultimately, may cease to continue our business.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of our financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect our reported assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We base our estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other assumptions we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Future events, however, may differ markedly from our current expectations and assumptions. While there are a number of significant accounting policies affecting our consolidated financial statements; we believe the following critical accounting policy involves the most complex, difficult and subjective estimates and judgments.

Revenue Recognition

For revenue from product sales and services, the Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104, Revenue Recognition ("SAB104"), which superseded Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101, Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements ("SAB101"). SAB 101 requires that four basic criteria must be met before revenue can be recognized: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (2) delivery has occurred or services have been rendered; (3) the selling price is fixed and determinable; and (4) collectability is reasonably assured. Determination of criteria (3) and (4) are based on management's judgments regarding the fixed nature of the selling prices of the products delivered and the collectability of those amounts. Provisions for discounts and rebates to customers, estimated returns and allowances, and other adjustments are provided for in the same period the related sales are recorded. The Company defers any revenue for which the product has not been delivered or is subject to refund until such time that the Company and the customer jointly determine that the product has been delivered or no refund will be required. The Company had deferred revenues of $334,777 and $804,452 as of September 30, 2008 and March 31, 2008, respectively. SAB 104 incorporates Emerging Issues Task Force 00-21 ("EITF 00-21"), Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements. EITF 00-21 addresses accounting for arrangements that may involve the delivery or performance of multiple products, services and/or rights to use assets. The effect of implementing EITF 00-21 on the Company's financial position and results of operations was not significant.

Stock-Based Compensation
 
On January 1, 2006 we adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (revised 2004) "Share-Based Payment" (SFAS 123 (R)) which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all share-based payment awards made to employees and directors including employee stock options and employee stock purchases related to a Employee Stock Purchase Plan based on the estimated fair values. SFAS 123 (R) supersedes the company's previous accounting under Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" ("APB 25") for the periods beginning fiscal 2006.

We adopted SFAS 123 (R) using the modified prospective transition method, which required the application of the accounting standard as of January 1, 2006. The company's Financial Statements as of and for the year ended March 31, 2007 reflects the impact of SFAS 123(R). In accordance with the modified prospective transition method, the company's Financial Statements for the prior periods have not been restated to reflect, and do not include the impact of SFAS 123 (R). Stock based compensation expense recognized under SFAS 123 (R) for the year ended March 31, 2007 was $1,440,776.

For the six month period ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, we did not grant stock options to employees and consultants. The fair value of options granted in previous years vesting during the six month period ended September 30, 2008 and 2007 of $412,200 was recorded as a current period charge to earnings.

Segment Information

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 131, “Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information” (“SFAS 131”) establishes standards for reporting information regarding operating segments in annual financial statements and requires selected information for those segments to be presented in interim financial reports issued to stockholders. SFAS 131 also establishes standards for related disclosures about products and services and geographic areas. Operating segments are identified as components of an enterprise about which separate discrete financial information is available for evaluation by the chief operating decision maker, or decision-making group, in making decisions how to allocate resources and assess performance. The information disclosed herein materially represents all of the financial information related to the Company’s principal operating segment.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities - Including an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 115” (“SFAS No. 159”).  SFAS No. 159 permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value.  Most of the provisions of SFAS No. 159 apply only to entities that elect the fair value option. However, the amendment to SFAS No. 115 “Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities” applies to all entities with available-for-sale and trading securities.  SFAS No. 159 is effective as of the beginning of an entity’s first fiscal year that begins after November 15, 2007.  Early adoption is permitted as of the beginning of a fiscal year that begins on or before November 15, 2007, provided the entity also elects to apply the provision of SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements”.  The adoption of SFAS No. 159 did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

35


In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141(R), "Business Combinations" ("SFAS No. 141(R)"), which establishes principles and requirements for how an acquirer recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any noncontrolling interest in an acquiree, including the recognition and measurement of goodwill acquired in a business combination. SFAS No. 141R is effective as of the beginning of the first fiscal year beginning on or after December 15, 2008. Earlier adoption is prohibited and the Company is currently evaluating the effect, if any that the adoption will have on its consolidated financial position results of operations or cash flows.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, "Noncontrolling Interest in Consolidated Financial Statements, an amendment of ARB No. 51” (“SFAS No. 160”), which will change the accounting and reporting for minority interests, which will be recharacterized as noncontrolling interests and classified as a component of equity within the consolidated balance sheets. SFAS No. 160 is effective as of the beginning of the first fiscal year beginning on or after December 15, 2008. Earlier adoption is prohibited and the Company is currently evaluating the effect, if any that the adoption will have on its consolidated financial position results of operations or cash flows.

In June 2007, the Accounting Standards Executive Committee issued Statement of Position 07-1, “Clarification of the Scope of the Audit and Accounting Guide Investment Companies and Accounting by Parent Companies and Equity Method Investors for Investments in Investment Companies” (“SOP 07-1”). SOP 07-1 provides guidance for determining whether an entity is within the scope of the AICPA Audit and Accounting Guide Investment Companies (the “Audit Guide”). SOP 07-1 was originally determined to be effective for fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2007, however, on February 6, 2008, FASB issued a final Staff Position indefinitely deferring the effective date and prohibiting early adoption of SOP 07-1 while addressing implementation issues.

In December 2007, the FASB ratified the consensus in EITF Issue No. 07-1, “Accounting for Collaborative Arrangements” (EITF 07-1). EITF 07-1 defines collaborative arrangements and requires collaborators to present the result of activities for which they act as the principal on a gross basis and report any payments received from (made to) the other collaborators based on other applicable authoritative accounting literature, and in the absence of other applicable authoritative literature, on a reasonable, rational and consistent accounting policy is to be elected. EITF 07-1 also provides for disclosures regarding the nature and purpose of the arrangement, the entity’s rights and obligations, the accounting policy for the arrangement and the income statement classification and amounts arising from the agreement. EITF 07-1 will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, which will be the Company’s fiscal year 2009, and will be applied as a change in accounting principle retrospectively for all collaborative arrangements existing as of the effective date. The Company has not yet evaluated the potential impact of adopting EITF 07-1 on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In March 2008, the FASB” issued SFAS No. 161, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities - an amendment to FASB Statement No. 133” (“SFAS No. 161”).  SFAS No. 161 is intended to improve financial standards for derivative instruments and hedging activities by requiring enhanced disclosures to enable investors to better understand their effects on an entity's financial position, financial performance, and cash flows.  Entities are required to provide enhanced disclosures about: (a) how and why an entity uses derivative instruments; (b) how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under SFAS No. 133 and its related interpretations; and (c) how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entity’s financial position, financial performance, and cash flows.  It is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008, with early adoption encouraged.  We are currently evaluating the impact of SFAS No. 161, if any, will have on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In April 2008, the FASB issued FSP No. FAS 142-3,“Determination of the Useful Life of Intangible Assets”. This FSP amends the factors that should be considered in developing renewal or extension assumptions used to determine the useful life of a recognized intangible asset under SFAS No. 142,“Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets”.  We are required to adopt FSP 142-3 on September 1, 2009, earlier adoption is prohibited.  The guidance in FSP 142-3 for determining the useful life of a recognized intangible asset shall be applied prospectively to intangible assets acquired after adoption, and the disclosure requirements shall be applied prospectively to all intangible assets recognized as of, and subsequent to, adoption.  We are currently evaluating the impact of FSP 142-3 on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

36


In May 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 162, "The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles" ("SFAS No. 162").  SFAS No. 162 identifies the sources of accounting principles and the framework for selecting the principles used in the preparation of financial statements of nongovernmental entities that are presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (the GAAP hierarchy).  SFAS No. 162 will become effective 60 days following the SEC's approval of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board amendments to AU Section 411, "The Meaning of Present Fairly in Conformity With Generally Accepted Accounting Principles."  We do not expect the adoption of SFAS No. 162 will have a material effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In May 2008, the FASB issued FSP Accounting Principles Board ("APB") 14-1 "Accounting for Convertible Debt Instruments That May Be Settled in Cash upon Conversion (Including Partial Cash Settlement) " ("FSP APB 14-1").  FSP APB 14-1 requires the issuer of certain convertible debt instruments that may be settled in cash (or other assets) on conversion to separately account for the liability (debt) and equity (conversion option) components of the instrument in a manner that reflects the issuer's non-convertible debt borrowing rate.  FSP APB 14-1 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008 on a retroactive basis.  We are currently evaluating the potential impact, if any, of the adoption of FSP APB 14-1 on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

SFAS No. 163. In May 2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued Statement on Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 163, “Accounting for Financial Guarantee Insurance Contracts - an interpretation of SFAS No. 60” (“SFAS 163”). The FASB believes that diversity exists in practice in accounting for financial guarantee insurance contracts by insurance enterprises under FASB Statement No. 60, “Accounting and Reporting by Insurance Enterprises.” That diversity results in inconsistencies in the recognition and measurement of claim liabilities because of differing views about when a loss has been incurred under SFAS No. 5 “Accounting for Contingencies.” SFAS No. 163 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and all interim periods within those fiscal years, except for some disclosures about the insurance enterprise’s risk-management activities. The Company is not an insurance enterprise and thus standard will not have any impact on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company does not have any off balance sheet arrangements that are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, revenues, results of operations, liquidity or capital expenditures.

Trends, Risks and Uncertainties

We have sought to identify what we believe to be the most significant risks to our business, but we cannot predict whether, or to what extent, any of such risks may be realized nor can we guarantee that we have identified all possible risks that might arise. Investors should carefully consider all of such risk factors before making an investment decision with respect to our Common Stock.
 
Cautionary Factors That May Affect Future Results

We have sought to identify what we believe are significant risks to our business, but we cannot predict whether, or to what extent, any of such risks may be realized nor can we guarantee that we have identified all possible risks that might arise.

Potential Fluctuations in Annual Operating Results

Our annual operating results may fluctuate significantly in the future as a result of a variety of factors, most of which are outside our control, including: the demand for our products and services; seasonal trends in purchasing, the amount and timing of capital expenditures and other costs relating to the commercial and consumer financing; price competition or pricing changes in the market; technical difficulties or system downtime; general economic conditions and economic conditions specific to the consumer financing sector.

Our annual results may also be significantly impacted by the impact of the accounting treatment of acquisitions, financing transactions or other matters. Particularly at our early stage of development, such accounting treatment can have a material impact on the results for any quarter. Due to the foregoing factors, among others, it is likely that our operating results may fall below our expectations or those of investors in some future quarter.

37

 
Dependence Upon Management

Our future performance and success is dependant upon the efforts and abilities of our Management. To a very significant degree, we are dependent upon the continued services of Nicholas S. Maturo, our Chief Executive Officer and member of our Board of Directors, and William Kosoff, our President and Chief Financial Officer and member of our Board of Directors. If we lost the services of Mr. Maturo, Mr. Kosoff, or other key employees before we could get qualified replacements, the loss could materially adversely affect our business. The Company has obtained a “Key Man” life insurance policy on Mr. Maturo and has initiated applications to obtain key man life insurance on Mr. Kosoff, President and CFO.

Our officers and directors are required to exercise good faith and high integrity in our Management affairs. Our bylaws provide, however, that our directors shall have no liability to us or to our shareholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director except with respect to (1) a breach of the director's duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders, (2) acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (3) liability which may be specifically defined by law or (4) a transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit.
 
Management of Growth

We may experience growth, which will place a strain on our managerial, operational and financial systems resources. To accommodate our current size and manage growth if it occurs, we must devote management attention and resources to improve our financial strength and our operational systems. Further, we will need to expand, train and manage our sales and distribution base. There is no guarantee that we will be able to effectively manage our existing operations or the growth of our operations, or that our facilities, systems, procedures or controls will be adequate to support any future growth. Our ability to manage our operations and any future growth will have a material effect on our stockholders.

If we fail to remain current on our reporting requirements, we could be removed from the OTC Bulletin Board which would limit the ability of broker-dealers to sell our securities and the ability of stockholders to sell their securities in the secondary market.

Companies trading on the OTC Bulletin Board, such as us, must be reporting issuers under Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and must be current in their reports under Section 13, in order to maintain price quotation privileges on the OTC Bulletin Board. If we fail to remain current on our reporting requirements, we could be removed from the OTC Bulletin Board. As a result, the market liquidity for our securities could be severely adversely affected by limiting the ability of broker-dealers to sell our securities and the ability of stockholders to sell their securities in the secondary market.
