NOTES
TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR
THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2010 AND 2009
NOTE 1
|
SUMMARY
OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
|
BASIS
OF PRESENTATION
These
statements should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial
statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for
the year ended December 31, 2009. Certain information and footnote
disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) have
been condensed or omitted. The operating results and cash flows for
the three-month period ended March 31, 2010, are not necessarily indicative of
the results that will be achieved for the full fiscal year ending
December 31, 2010 or for future periods.
The
accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared
without audit and reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring
adjustments, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair
statement of financial position and the results of operations for the interim
periods. Preparing financial statements requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities,
revenue, and expenses. Estimates are used for, but not limited to, the
accounting for the allowance for doubtful accounts, inventory valuation,
restructuring costs, goodwill and intangible asset valuation, impairment costs,
depreciation and amortization, sales returns and discounts, warranty costs,
derivative valuation, uncertain tax positions and the recoverability of deferred
tax assets, stock compensation, business combinations, contingencies and the
fair value of assets and liabilities disclosed. Actual results and outcomes may
differ from management's estimates and assumptions. The statements have been
prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America ("GAAP") and pursuant to the rules and regulations of
the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). Certain information and footnote
disclosures, normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America,
have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such SEC rules and
regulations.
The
balance sheet at December 31, 2009 has been derived from the audited
financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information
and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States of America for complete financial statements.
Going
Concern
The
accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company
will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets
and the liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company
generated accumulated losses of $4,746,835 through December 31, 2009 and has a
working capital deficit of approximately $734,000. These factors raise
substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going
concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments
relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or
the amounts and classification of liabilities that might result from this
uncertainty.
A
multi-step plan was adopted by management to enable the company to continue to
operate and begin to report operating profits. The highlights of that plan
are:
·
|
The
Company closed the private placement memorandum dated October 26, 2009 and
raised a total of $1,595,000.
|
·
|
A
private placement memorandum was prepared to raise an additional
$1,500,000. As of March 31, 2010 a total of $190,000 has been
raised.
|
·
|
Establish
distributor networks with existing companies to create a reseller network
to increase the scope of the Company’s marketing activities with low cost
to the Company.
|
·
|
Launch
public relations and marketing
campaigns.
|
·
|
The
Company may evaluate and consider merger and/or acquisition
activities.

NOTES
TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR
THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2010 AND 2009
Principles of
Consolidation
The
consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the
Company and its wholly owned subsidiary. All significant
inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in
consolidation.
Concentrations
Financial
instruments, which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit
risk, consist principally of cash and cash equivalents and trade accounts
receivable.
Substantially
all cash is deposited in one financial institution. At times, amounts on deposit
may be in
excess of the FDIC insurance limit.
Accounts
receivable are unsecured and the Company is at risk to the extent such amount
becomes uncollectible. The Company performs periodic credit evaluations of its
customers’ financial condition and generally does not require collateral. Two
customers represented approximately 50% (38% and 12%) of total revenues for the
year ended December 31, 2009. The accounts receivable from these customers were
approximately 57% of total accounts receivable as of December 31, 2009. Revenue
from two customers represented approximately 73% of total revenues for the
period ended March 31, 2010 and approximately 64% of total accounts receivable
at March 31, 2010. No other customers represented greater than 10% of total
revenues in 2009 and the three months ended March 31, 2010.
Fair Value of Financial
Instruments
Fair
value estimates discussed herein are based upon certain market assumptions and
pertinent information available to management as of December 31,
2009. The respective carrying value of certain on-balance-sheet
financial instruments, approximate their fair values. These financial
instruments include cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued
expenses, convertible notes and amounts due to related parties. Fair values were
assumed to approximate carrying values for these financial instruments because
they are short term in nature and their carrying amounts approximate fair values
or they are receivable or payable on demand.
Reclassification
Certain
amounts in 2009 have been reclassified to conform to the 2010
presentation.

Preferred
Stock
The
Company has 100,000,000 shares of $0.00001 par value preferred stock, authorized
to issue. No shares have been issued and the rights and privileges of this class
of stock have not been defined.
Common
Stock
During
October 2009, the Company issued 401,094 and 2,455 shares of its common stock in
payment of principal and interest, respectively, for convertible debt recorded
at $401,094 and $2,455, respectively.
During
the three month period ended March 31, 2010 the Company issued 1,813,155 shares
of Common Stock. 1,695,000 shares were related to private placement
memorandums, 67,155 shares were from convertible debentures, 50,000 shares were
from the exercise of warrants issued during the period and 1,000 shares were
from the exercise of employee stock options.
During
the three month period ended March 31, 2010 the Company issued and had
outstanding additional warrants to purchase 250,000 shares of common stock at
$1.00 and 172,500 shares of common stock at $1.10. These warrants
were issued as a cost of financing.
NOTE

|
STOCK
OPTION PLAN
|
The
Company has also granted non-qualified stock options to employees and
contractors. All non-qualified options are generally issued with an exercise
price that may be less than 100 percent of the fair value of the common stock on
the date of the grant as determined by the Company's Board of Directors. Options
may be exercised up to ten years following the date of the grant, with vesting
schedules determined by the Company upon grant. Vesting periods range from 100%
fully vested upon grant to a range of four to five years. Vested
options may be exercised up to three months following date of termination of the
relationship. The fair values of options are determined using the Black-Scholes
option-pricing model. The estimated fair value of options is recognized as
expense on the straight-line basis over the options’ vesting
periods.

RELATED
PARTY TRANSACTIONS
|
In 2009
the Company borrowed $134,000 from certain shareholders for use in
operations. The balance at December 31, 2009 was
$134,000. The advances bore no interest and were repaid in January
2010.
The
Company has provided surveillance services since 2005 to entities owned by Ross
Farnsworth, either through a family partnership or through his majority owned
LLC, and subsequently Ross Farnsworth became a shareholder of the Company in
2006. Mr. Farnsworth’s holdings are less than 5% of the Company but the
revenue for the period ending March 31, 2010 were $16,718 and no trade accounts
receivable balance at March 31, 2010.

EARNINGS
(LOSS) PER SHARE
|
The
following table provides a reconciliation of the numerators and denominators
reflected in the basic and diluted earnings per share computations, as required
by SFAS No. 128, “Earnings Per Share“(“EPS”).
Basic EPS
is computed by dividing reported earnings available to stockholders by the
weighted average shares outstanding. The Company had net losses for
the quarters ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 and the effect of including dilutive
securities in the earnings per common share would have been
anti-dilutive. Accordingly, all options to purchase common shares
were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share for the
quarters ended March 31, 2010 and 2009.

Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Iveda

The
following discussion should be read in conjunction with Iveda Corporation's
unaudited financial statements and associated notes appearing elsewhere in this
Form 10-Q.
Caution
Regarding Forward-Looking Information
All
statements contained in this Form 10-Q, other than statements of historical
facts, that address future activities, events or developments are
forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to, statements containing
the words "believe," "expect," "anticipate," "intends," "estimate," "forecast,"
"project," and similar expressions . All statements other than statements of
historical fact are statements that could be deemed forward-looking statements,
including any statements of the plans, strategies and objectives of management
for future operations; any statements concerning proposed new products,
services, developments or industry rankings; any statements regarding future
economic conditions or performance; any statements of belief; and any statements
of assumptions underlying any of the foregoing. These statements are
based on certain assumptions and analyses made by us in light of our experience
and our assessment of historical trends, current conditions and expected future
developments as well as other factors we believe are appropriate under the
circumstances. However, whether actual results will conform to the expectations

Results
of Operations for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2010 Compared to
the
Three Months Ended March 31, 2009
Net Revenue.
We recorded net revenue of $112,682 for the three months ended March 31,
2010, compared to $223,824 for the three months ended March 31, 2009, a decrease
of $111,142 or 50%. Revenues were primarily derived from our real-time
surveillance and equipment sales and installation. In Q1 2010, our recurring
service revenue was $100,444 or 89% of net revenue and our equipment sales and
installation revenue was $12,238 or 11% of net revenue, compared to recurring
service revenue of $92,269 or 41% of net revenue, and equipment sales and
installation revenue of $131,555 or 59% of net revenue in 2009. The decrease in
revenue was due to fewer equipment sales in the first quarter of 2010 than the
first quarter of 2009. Revenue for the quarter ended March 31, 2009
was substantially higher than that for the quarter ended March 31, 2010 because
of a significant installation project that was started in 2008 and was completed
in the first quarter of 2009, in addition to a large equipment sale to one
customer.
12
Cost of
Revenue. Total cost of revenue
was $99,025 for the three months ended March 31, 2010, compared to $165,232 for
the three months ended March 31, 2009, a decrease of $66,207 or 40%. The
decrease in cost of revenue was primarily due to the decrease in
revenue.
Operating
Expenses. Operating expenses were
$545,337 for the three months ended March 31, 2010, compared to $568,966 for the
three months ended March 31, 2009, a decrease of $23,629 or 4%. The decrease in
operating expenses was primarily related to cuts in marketing, travel, and
personnel costs.
Loss from
Operations. As a result of the
decreases in revenues and related gross profit, loss from operations increased
to $531,680 for the three months ended March 31, 2010, compared to $510,374 for
the three months ended March 31, 2009, an increase in loss of $21,306 or
4%.
Other
Expense-Net. Other expense-net was
$6,235 for the three months ended March 31, 2010, compared to $6,747 for the
three months ended March 31, 2009, a decrease of $512 or 8%.
Net
Loss. The
increase of $20,794 or 4% in the net loss to $537,915 for the three months ended
March 31, 2010 from $517,121 for the three months ended March 31, 2009 was
primarily a net effect of a $111,000 revenue reduction related to lower
equipment sales.
Liquidity
and Capital Resources
We had
cash and cash equivalents of $678,279 on March 31, 2010. The significant
improvement in cash on hand from $17,672 as of December 31, 2009 resulted from
cash raised through stock sales made during January 2010.
Net cash
used in operating activities during the three months ended March 31, 2010 and
2009, respectively, was $722,688 and $517,121. Cash used in operating activities
for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively, consisted
primarily of the net loss from operations.
Net cash
provided by investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and
2009, respectively, was $0 and $7,193 for the purchase of property and
equipment.
Net cash
provided by financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2010 was
$1,383,295, primarily from sale of common stock. Net cash provided by
financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2009 was $122,782,
primarily from sale of common stock and proceeds from the issuance of
convertible notes.
At
December 31, 2009, we had approximately $4.4 million in net operating loss
carryforwards available for federal and state income tax purposes. We did not
recognize any benefit from these operating loss carryforwards for the year ended
2009 or thus far in 2010, which expire beginning in 2010 through
2026.
We have
experienced significant operating losses since our inception. We entered into a
new lease agreement in 2008 and increased our occupancy costs as we increased
our lease commitment from 1,411 square feet to 3,667 square feet. Our capital
expenditures and working capital requirements could increase depending on our
operating results and other adjustments to our operating plan as may be needed
to respond to competition or unexpected events.
13
We
believe that our cash on hand is sufficient to meet our anticipated cash needs
for working capital and capital expenditures for only the next 6 to 8 months. We
continually evaluate our working capital needs and we are seeking to obtain
additional working capital through debt and equity offerings. There can be no
assurance that additional funds will be available on acceptable terms. In the
event that additional funds are not available on acceptable terms, we could be
required to reduce the scope of or cease operations.
The
economic events in 2009 resulting in a downturn of spending and the credit
shortage severely curtailed our ability to raise financing in 2009 and we
focused almost exclusively on raising capital. Therefore, we were
unable to fund our sales and marketing plans which did not allow us to focus on
sales during the latter half of 2009 and this lack of focus impacted our sales
pipeline in the first quarter of 2010. Not only was our management
focused on raising capital but we also focused on consummating our merger in
October 2009, and reducing costs to sustain our operations. It was
not until toward the end of January 2010 that we received a cash infusion. In
early February we hired new sales and marketing staff and started planning for
launching a marketing campaign to increase our sales. These
activities did not increase our revenues for the first quarter but our sales
team has received positive feedback and leads for potential new customers
although there is no assurance we will close any of these
opportunities. The full launch of our sales and marketing campaign
was not completed until April 2010 and we hope to see some results toward the
latter part of the second quarter although the timing of the closing of sales to
new potential customers is dependent on numerous factors outside our
control.
Our
management is cautiously optimistic because we began experiencing a shorter
sales cycle in April. Our marketing as a service company versus an equipment
company has started to resonate among our potential customers. In
today’s difficult economic times, companies are avoiding large capital
expenditures. Because Iveda Corporation is able to be a service
provider in the security industry rather than a seller of cameras and other
products, management believes that this attractive value proposition provides
companies the ability to secure their properties without large capital
expenditure. Iveda Corporation offers an inexpensive, but effective, alternative
to security guards, with our real-time video surveillance service using existing
camera systems. Even if the customer has to purchase cameras to
enable Iveda Corporation's service, Iveda Corporation is still able to provide
up to 50% savings compared to traditional security guard services.
Iveda
Corporation's average monthly burn rate in the first quarter of 2010 was
approximately $135,000. We raised capital of
approximately $1.5 million in January 2010 and used this cash to hire sales and
marketing employees, among other things. We also continue to
establish distributor networks with existing companies to create a reseller
network to increase the scope of Iveda Corporation's marketing activities at a
relatively low cost to Iveda Corporation, by utilizing resellers’ sales and
marketing resources and leveraging their customer base. If we are not able to
quickly increase our sales then we will need to raise additional capital during
the year and may be required to cut back to a skeleton crew to maintain our
existing operations.
Two
customers represented greater than 10% of total revenue for the three months
ended March 31, 2010 - Insurance Auto Auctions (58%) and Farnsworth
(15%).
Substantially
all cash is deposited in one financial institution. At times, amounts on deposit
may be in excess of the FDIC insurance limit.

Evaluation
of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Under the
supervision and with the participation of our management, including our
principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an
evaluation of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and
procedures, as such term is defined under Rules 13a-14(c) and 15d-14(c)
promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange
Act"), as of March 31, 2010. Based on that evaluation, our principal
executive officer and our principal financial officer concluded that the design
and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures were
effective. The design of any system of controls is based in part upon
certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no
assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all
potential future conditions, regardless of how remote. However,
management believes that our system of disclosure controls and procedures is
designed to provide a reasonable level of assurance that the objectives of the
system will be met.
Changes
in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There
have not been any changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as
such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act)
during the most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are
reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial
reporting.
