NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1: Organization and Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of LiveDeal, Inc. (formerly YP Corp.), a Nevada corporation, and its wholly owned subsidiaries (collectively the “Company”). The Company delivers local customer acquisition services for small and medium-sized businesses combined with an Internet Yellow Pages directory platform technology to deliver an affordable way for businesses to extend their marketing reach to local, relevant customers via the Internet through its online property, www.livedeal.com.

The accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2008, which has been derived from audited consolidated financial statements, and the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2009 and for the three and six months ended March 31, 2009 and March 31, 2008, respectively, have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for audited financial statements. In the opinion of the Company’s management, the interim information includes all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods. The results of operations for the three and six months ended March 31, 2009 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending September 30, 2009. The footnote disclosures related to the interim financial information included herein are also unaudited. Such financial information should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto as of September 30, 2008 and for the year then ended included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2008.

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates and assumptions have been used by management throughout the preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements including in conjunction with establishing allowances for customer refunds, non-paying customers, dilution and fees, analyzing the recoverability of the carrying amount of intangible assets, estimating forfeitures of stock-based compensation and evaluating the recoverability of deferred tax assets. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Note 2: Business Operations

In January 2009, the Company re-evaluated its business and adopted a new business strategy that moved away from the integration of the Yellow Pages and classifieds businesses to one which addressed each of its business segments as separate entities. This re-evaluation was necessitated by the growth of the Company’s Direct Sales – Customer Acquisition Services business line that provides Internet-based customer acquisition strategies for small business, as well as declining revenues from the Company’s traditional business lines (i.e. directory services and classifieds). Additionally, current economic and regulatory forces, both general and specific to the Company’s industry, impacted management’s considerations of the Company’s existing business model and strategy. Some of these factors include the following:

The current effects of the recession and general economic downturn;

Management’s perception that the general economic downturn could lead the Company’s business customers to seek lower-cost customer acquisition methods, primarily through the Internet;

The sale of the Company’s “www.yp.com” domain name in the first quarter of 2009, which domain name was associated with the Company’s traditional business;

The reconstitution of the Company’s management team with additional capability in Internet-based technologies;

The termination of certain significant directory business contracts related to the traditional business;

The sale of certain of the Company’s traditional business assets, including certain of its customer lists; and

Continuing losses in the Company’s classifieds business.

LIVEDEAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

As a result, the Company’s management made significant changes to its business strategy during the second quarter of fiscal 2009. Management has decided to move the Company’s strategic focus away from its directory services and classified businesses. Additionally, the Company discontinued the operations of its Philippines-based call center, which has historically provided telemarketing services to support its directory services business, specifically those directory services which were sold during the quarter ended March 31, 2009. These strategic changes impacted the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements during the second quarter of fiscal 2009 in the following manner:

Impairment charges of $16,111,494 were recorded related to the write-down of the Company’s goodwill and other intangible assets as discussed in Note 5;

The Company entered into a plan to discontinue its classifieds business and initiated shutdown activities, as discussed in Note 6, and has reflected the operating results of this line of business as discontinued operations in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations;

The Company sold a portion of its customer list associated with its directory services business and recorded a gain of $2,815,952, as discussed in Note 7; and

The Company established a valuation allowance of $9,392,488 related to its deferred tax assets, as described in Note 10.

The Company’s new strategic focus is on delivering a suite of Internet-based, local search driven, customer acquisition services for small businesses, sold via telemarketing and supported by its websites and internally developed software.

Note 3: Accounting Policies

While the Company has not changed its accounting policies from those disclosed in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2008, the growth in its Direct Sales – Customer Acquisition Services business necessitates a further discussion of the revenue recognition policies associated with these contracts.

The Company recognizes the value of the noncancelable portion of the Direct Sales’ customer contract as a receivable and bills the customer for the amount of the contract over the period of the contract. However, the Company recognizes only a portion of the contract value as revenue each month, approximately pro-rating the contract to a monthly amount, with the remainder of the noncancelable portion of the contract maintained as a deferred revenue liability.

The Company believes that this is an appropriate method of accounting for Direct Sales revenues and receivables as the revenue is recognized ratably over the contractual period as services are rendered while the Company’s receivables reflect the gross amount that the customer is legally obligated to pay.

The Company has increased its reserves taken, calculated as percentages of their related gross accounts receivable, based on numerous factors. Among others, this takes into consideration the increased volume of customer contracts in its Direct Sales business segment since September 30, 2008, as well as the recent declines in the performance of the Directory Services business segment, and additional reserves related to terminated contracts under which certain receivables remain outstanding.

Included in accounts receivable at March 31, 2009 and September 30, 2008 are receivables of $803,877 and $806,100, respectively from a LEC aggregator that is currently in bankruptcy proceedings, against which the Company maintains allowances totaling $723,489 and $628,449, respectively.

Note 5: Impairment of Goodwill and Intangible Assets

In January 2009, in connection with the strategic changes described in Note 2, the Company’s management, at the direction of the Company’s Audit Committee, commenced an interim reporting period review of the Company’s goodwill and intangible assets for impairment. In accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets”, and SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment and Disposal of Long-Lived Assets”, the Company evaluates goodwill and other long-lived assets for impairment on an annual basis or whenever facts and circumstances indicate that impairment may exist. Current economic and regulatory forces, both general and specific to the Company’s industry, caused management to consider the Company’s existing business model and strategy including:

The current effects of the recession and general economic downturn;

The sale of the Company’s “www.yp.com” domain name in the first quarter of 2009;

The termination of certain significant directory business contracts;

The change in business strategy to move away from the integration of the Yellow Pages and classifieds businesses to one which addresses each of the Company’s business segments as separate entities;

The sale of certain directory services assets that impacted the future use of its Philippines call-center;

The existence of certain regulatory actions that impacted the future use of its Philippines call-center; and

Continuing losses in the Company’s classifieds business.

In light of the changes in the Company’s business strategy and model as described in Note 2, the Company determined that a triggering event had occurred and initiated an impairment analysis.

Management conducted its analysis in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets” and SFAS No. 157 “Fair Value Measurements.” The Company used a discounted cash flow approach in estimating fair value as market values could not be readily determined given the unique nature of the respective assets. For the assets identified as being impaired, the cash flows associated with the underlying assets did not support a value greater than zero given the shutdown of the classifieds business and the Philippines call-center operation, the impacts of the sale of a portion of the Company’s customer list and www.yp.com domain name, and other operational changes as a result of the Company’s change in business strategy.

Based upon the analysis, management determined that the following items were impaired:

The goodwill acquired by the Company in its acquisition of LiveDeal, Inc., the business focus of which was online classified advertising which was originally intended to be merged with the Company’s existing directory services business;

The goodwill acquired by the Company in its acquisition of a Philippines call-center, 247 Marketing, Inc., the business focus of which is providing telemarketing services to acquire customers for its directory services business;

Assets related to the Company’s call-center operations and non-compete agreements that were made obsolete due to the sale of a portion of the Company’s customer list associated with its directory services business, as described in Note 7.

The Company performed an initial assessment of impairment prior to filing its Form 10-Q for the period ended December 31, 2008, and disclosed an estimated impairment charge of $14,300,000. The Company reevaluated these amounts and increased the corresponding impairment charge to $14,676,568 after identifying other website and technology related intangible assets related to the items identified earlier. Since that time, the Company sold a portion of the Company’s customer list, which resulted in an additional $1,400,000 of impaired assets, consisting of approximately $175,000 of website and technology related intangibles and $1,200,000 of other assets made obsolete as described above.

Note 6: Discontinued Operations

As part of the Company’s strategy to evaluate each of its business as separate entities, management noted that the classifieds business has incurred significant operating losses and did not fit with the Company’s change in strategic direction. Accordingly, in March 2009, the Company made the strategic decision to discontinue its classifieds business and product offerings. The Company initiated shutdown activities in March 2009 and expects to conclude such activities in May 2009, including the shutdown of the website previously used for classified activities. Accordingly, the Company does not expect any future revenues from this business segment.

The Company applied the provisions of SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment and Disposal of Long-Lived Assets” and determined that, with the changes in the Company’s reportable segments described in Note 13, the classified business met the definition of a component as it has separately identifiable operations and cash flows. Accordingly, the Company is reflecting the results of the classifieds business as discontinued operations. Prior year financial statements have been restated to present the classifieds operations as a discontinued operation.

In conjunction with the discontinued operations, the Company recorded charges of $27,328 in the second quarter of fiscal 2009 for certain exit costs relating to the shutdown of these operations which is reflected as part of income (loss) from discontinued operations in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. The Company expects to incur an additional $220,000 of exit costs which were not reflected in the financial statements for the period ended March 31, 2009, although such costs are only an estimate at this time.

The classifieds business accounted for $48,143 and $201,759 of net revenues for the three and six months ended March 31, 2009, respectively, and $598,429 and $1,261,078 of net revenues for the three and six months ended March 31, 2008, respectively, which are now included as part of income (loss) from discontinued operations in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Note 7: Other Income

On November 5, 2008, the Company entered into an agreement to sell its Internet domain name “www.yp.com” to YellowPages.com for a cash payment of $3,850,000. Although the Company’s future focus is on the sale of customer acquisition services for small businesses, a significant source of ongoing revenues is the sale of Internet Advertising Packages, which targeted users of its www.yp.com property. The Company has transitioned these customers to advertising on www.yellowpages.livedeal.com

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

On March 9, 2009, in connection with the Company’s shift in strategic focus away from its classified and directory services business, the Company entered into an agreement to sell a portion of its customer list associated with its directory services business. This customer list was sold for $3,093,202 of which $2,783,097 was paid by the buyer and received during the second quarter of fiscal 2009, with the remaining amount held back in escrow pending the resolution of potential claims, if any. Such claims are contractually limited to the amount held in escrow. Net of certain accruals for transaction costs and transaction-related contingencies, the Company recorded a gain of $2,815,952, which is reflected in other income in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations.

The Company analyzed this transaction and determined that it did not meet the definition of a discontinued operation under SFAS No 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, as the customer list that was sold did not meet the definition of a component of an entity and as the Company expects to have continuing involvement and operations in directory services for the near future.

The Company also amended another directory services contract in consideration of accelerated payments on its outstanding accounts receivables and some anticipated future billings, which resulted in an increase in other income of $642,268 for the three and six months ended March 31, 2009, respectively. Together with the partial customer list sale described above, these customers and contracts accounted for $5,146,073 of revenue in the first six months of fiscal 2009. As a result of these transactions, the Company no longer expects to generate future revenues from these sources.

Note 8: Stock-based Compensation

From time to time, the Company grants restricted stock awards and stock options to officers, directors, employees and consultants. Such awards are valued based on the grant date fair-value of the instruments, net of estimated forfeitures. The value of each award is amortized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period.

During the three and six months ended March 31, 2009, the Company recognized compensation expense of $26,026 and $45,882, respectively, related to stock option awards granted to certain employees and executives based on the grant date fair value of the awards. No expense was recognized in the three and six months ended March 31, 2008 as no stock option awards had been granted prior to March 31, 2008.

The Black Scholes option pricing model was used to calculate the expense with the following weighted-average assumptions:

	Quarter Ended March 31, 2009			Six Months Ended March 31, 2009			Quarter Ended March 31, 2008		Six Months Ended March 31, 2008
Volatility		97	%		97	%		N/A		N/A
Risk-free interest rate		2.6	%		2.6	%		N/A		N/A
Expected term	6.0 years			6.0 years				N/A		N/A
Forfeiture rate		40	%		40	%		N/A		N/A
Dividend yield rate		0	%		0	%		N/A		N/A

The volatility used was based on historical volatility of the Company’s common stock, which management considers to be the best indicator of expected future volatility. The risk free interest rate was determined based on treasury securities with maturities equal to the expected term of the underlying award. The expected term was determined based on the simplified method outlined in Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 110. The Company utilized an estimated forfeiture rate of 40% based on expected forfeiture rates pertaining to such individuals.

During the three and six months ended March 31, 2009, the Company recognized expense reversals of $221,443 and $132,366, primarily relating to $258,185 reduction in stock based compensation expense due to a change in estimated forfeiture rate, partially offset by the expensing of restricted stock awards over their respective service periods. The Company changed its estimated forfeiture rate of awards granted to officers, directors and key personnel from 40% to 70% due to recent terminations.

Note 9: Net Income (Loss) per Share

Net income (loss) per share is calculated using the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Basic weighted average common shares outstanding do not include shares of restricted stock that have not yet vested, although such shares are included as outstanding shares in the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet. Diluted net income per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares and, if dilutive, potential common shares outstanding during the period. Potential common shares consist of the incremental common shares issuable from restricted shares, stock options and convertible preferred stock. The dilutive effect of outstanding restricted shares and stock options is reflected in diluted earnings per share by application of the treasury stock method. Convertible preferred stock is reflected on an if-converted basis. Preferred stock dividends are subtracted from net income to determine the amount available to common stockholders.

Note 10: Income Taxes

During the quarter ended March 31, 2009, the Company established a valuation allowance in the amount of $9,474,682 against its deferred tax assets. While the Company’s management has optimistic plans for its new business strategy, the Company determined that such a valuation allowance was necessary given the current and expected near term losses and the uncertainty with respect to the Company’s ability to generate sufficient profits from its new business model. Therefore, the Company established a valuation allowance for all deferred tax assets in excess of those expected to be realizable through the application of operating loss carrybacks.

Litigation

Global Education Services, Inc. v. LiveDeal, Inc.

On June 6, 2008, Global Education Services, Inc. (“GES”) filed a consumer fraud class action lawsuit against the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, Telco Billing, Inc., in King County (Washington) Superior Court. GES alleged in its complaint that the Company’s use of activator checks violated the Washington Consumer Protection Act. GES is seeking injunctive relief against our use of the checks, as well as a judgment in an amount equal to three times the alleged damages sustained by GES and the members of the class. LiveDeal has denied the allegations. Legal proceedings in the matter are ongoing, and discovery began in late January 2009.

Complaint filed by Illinois Attorney General against LiveDeal, Inc.

On November 12, 2008, the Illinois Attorney General filed a complaint in the Circuit Court of the Seventh Judicial Circuit of the State of Illinois (Sangamon County) against the Company requesting money damages and injunctive relief for claims that we employed deceptive and unfair acts and practices in violation of the Illinois Consumer Fraud and Deceptive Business Act in a telemarketing campaign that in par promoted premium Internet Yellow Page listings to Illinois consumers. Based on a preliminary investigation into the sales scripts and automated verification system utilized in the telemarketing campaign, LiveDeal denied the allegations. Discovery is ongoing.

Note 12: Concentration of Credit Risk

The Company maintains cash balances at major nationwide institutions in Arizona, California and Nevada. Accounts are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to $250,000.

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk are primarily trade accounts receivable. The trade accounts receivable are due primarily from business customers over widespread geographical locations within the LEC billing areas across the United States. The Company historically has experienced significant dilution and customer credits due to billing difficulties and uncollectible trade accounts receivable. The Company estimates and provides an allowance for uncollectible accounts receivable. The handling and processing of cash receipts pertaining to trade accounts receivable is maintained primarily by two third-party billing companies. The net receivable due from these entities represented 38% and 12%, respectively, of the Company’s total net accounts receivable (excluding non-specific reserves) at March 31, 2009. The net receivable due from these entities represented 31% and 13%, respectively, of the Company’s total net accounts receivable (excluding non-specific reserves) at September 30, 2008. Additionally, the Company maintains a wholesale fulfillment contract with a third-party which accounted for 23% of the Company’s total net accounts receivable (excluding non-specific reserves) at March 31, 2009. This party accounted for 13% of the Company’s total net accounts receivable (excluding non-specific reserves) at September 30, 2008.

Note 13: Segment Reporting

Prior to fiscal 2009, the Company operated as an integrated business and had only one reportable segment. During the second quarter of fiscal 2009, the Company has been implementing a corporate initiative that evaluates its different product lines as separate business units. As part of this strategy, management has begun evaluating operating performance by reviewing the profitability of these product lines on a standalone basis. Therefore, the Company now has two reportable operating segments (excluding the discontinued classifieds business): Directory Services and Direct Sales - Customer Acquisition Services. As the Company has recently implemented this new approach, the Company has yet to identify and allocate operating costs to its reportable segments below the gross profit level. Additionally, the reportable segments share many common costs, including, but not limited to, IT support, office and administrative expenses. Therefore, the following table of operating results does not allocate costs to its reportable segments below the gross profit level:

Given that the Company has only recently implemented its reportable segments, it has yet to allocate its assets to each respective segment. While some software costs are specific to each business, most of the Company’s fixed assets and software architecture are shared among its segments.

Note 14: Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (“SFAS No. 157”). SFAS No. 157 establishes a framework for measuring fair value under generally accepted accounting procedures and expands disclosures on fair value measurements. This statement applies under previously established valuation pronouncements and does not require the changing of any fair value measurements, though it may cause some valuation procedures to change. Under SFAS No. 157, fair value is established by the price that would be received to sell the item or the amount to be paid to transfer the liability of the asset as opposed to the price to be paid for the asset or received to transfer the liability. Further, it defines fair value as a market specific valuation as opposed to an entity specific valuation, though the statement does recognize that there may be instances when the low amount of market activity for a particular item or liability may challenge an entity’s ability to establish a market amount. In the instances that the item is restricted, this pronouncement states that the owner of the asset or liability should take into consideration what affects the restriction would have if viewed from the perspective of the buyer or assumer of the liability. This statement is effective for all assets valued in financial statements for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The adoption of the pronouncement did not have a material effect on our financial position or results of operations.

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities (“SFAS No. 159”), which provides companies with an option to report selected financial assets and liabilities at fair value. SFAS No. 159 also establishes presentation and disclosure requirements designed to facilitate comparisons between companies that choose different measurement attributes for similar types of assets and liabilities. SFAS No. 159 is effective as of the beginning of an entity’s first fiscal year beginning after November 15, 2007 with early adoption allowed. The adoption of the pronouncement did not have a material effect on our financial position or results of operations.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141 (revised 2007), Business Combinations (“SFAS No. 141(R)”) and No. 160, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements, an amendment of ARB No. 51 (“SFAS No. 160”). SFAS No. 141(R) and SFAS No. 160 are products of a joint project between the FASB and the International Accounting Standards Board. The revised standards continue the movement toward the greater use of fair values in financial reporting. SFAS No. 141(R) will significantly change how business acquisitions are accounted for and will impact financial statements both on the acquisition date and in subsequent periods. These changes include the expensing of acquisition related costs and restructuring costs when incurred, the recognition of all assets, liabilities and noncontrolling interests at fair value during a step-acquisition, and the recognition of contingent consideration as of the acquisition date if it is more likely than not to be incurred. SFAS No. 160 will change the accounting and reporting for minority interests, which will be recharacterized as noncontrolling interests and classified as a component of equity. SFAS No. 141(R) and SFAS No. 160 are effective for both public and private companies for fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2008 (October 1, 2009 for the Company). SFAS No. 141(R) will be applied prospectively. SFAS No. 160 requires retroactive adoption of the presentation and disclosure requirements for existing minority interests. All other requirements of SFAS No. 160 shall be applied prospectively. Early adoption is prohibited for both standards. The Company does not expect to be impacted by the implementation of this pronouncement.

In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities - an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133 ("SFAS 161"). SFAS 161 modifies existing requirements to include qualitative disclosures regarding the objectives and strategies for using derivatives, fair value amounts of gains and losses on derivative instruments and disclosures about credit-risk-related contingent features in derivative agreements. The pronouncement also requires the cross-referencing of derivative disclosures within the financial statements and notes thereto. The requirements of SFAS 161 are effective for interim and annual periods beginning after November 15, 2008. The Company was not impacted by the adoption of SFAS 161.

In April 2008, the FASB issued FSP No. FAS 142-3, Determination of the Useful Life of Intangible Assets (“FSP FAS 142-3”). FSP FAS 142-3 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. The intent of the position is to improve the consistency between the useful life of a recognized intangible asset under SFAS No. 142 and the period of expected cash flows used to measure the fair value of the asset under SFAS No. 141(R), and other GAAP. FSP FAS 142-3 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. FSP FAS 142-3 is effective for the Company on October 1, 2009. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of FSP FAS 142-3 will have on its financial condition, results of operations, and disclosures.

In May 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 162, The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“SFAS 162”). SFAS 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 GAAP. This statement shall be effective 60 days following the Securities and Exchange Commission’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. The adoption of SFAS 162 did not result in a material impact to the Company’s financial position or results of operations. .

In May of 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 163, Accounting for Financial Guarantee Insurance Contracts-an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 60 (“SFAS 163”). The scope of SFAS 163 is limited to financial guarantee insurance (and reinsurance) contracts. The pronouncement is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 31, 2008. The Company does not believe this pronouncement will impact its financial statements.

In May 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position No. APB 14-1 (“FSP”). The FSP specifies that issuers of convertible debt instruments that permit or require the issuer to pay cash upon conversion should separately account for the liability and equity components in a manner that will reflect the entity’s nonconvertible debt borrowing rate when interest cost is recognized in subsequent periods. The Company would be required to apply the guidance retrospectively to all past periods presented, even to instruments that have matured, converted, or otherwise been extinguished as of the effective date. The FSP is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company does not believe this FSP will impact its financial statements.

In June 2008, the Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) issued Issue No. 07-05, “Determining Whether an Instrument (or Embedded Feature) Is Indexed to an Entity’s Own Stock” (“Issue 07-05”). EITF No. 07-05 addresses the determination of whether an instrument (or an embedded feature) is indexed to an entity’s own stock, if an instrument (or an embedded feature) that has the characteristics of a derivative instrument is indexed to an entity’s own stock, it is still necessary to evaluate whether it is classified in stockholders’ equity (or would be classified in stockholders’ equity if it were a freestanding instrument). In addition, some instruments that are potentially subject to the guidance in EITF Issue No. 00-19 “Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to, and Potentially Settled in, a Company’s Own Stock” (“Issue 00-19”) but do not have all the characteristics of a derivative instrument under paragraphs 6 through 9, it is still necessary to evaluate whether it is classified in stockholders’ equity. It is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. The Company does not believe this pronouncement will impact its financial statements.

Our Company

LiveDeal, Inc. provides local customer acquisition services for small businesses combined with an Internet Yellow Pages directory platform technology to deliver an affordable way for businesses to extend their marketing reach to local, relevant customers via the Internet. Through its online property, www.livedeal.com, LiveDeal delivers local search engine marketing (SEM) through its LiveAdvisor(TM) and LiveClicks(TM) products that combine leading technology with a strong partnership model and an inside sales team to create an efficient platform local businesses need to create and optimize their Internet search advertising campaigns. LiveDeal partners with Google, Yahoo!, MSN, ASK, Miva, Looksmart and others. LiveDeal, Inc. is headquartered in Las Vegas, Nevada. For more information, please visit www.livedeal.com.

We have two inter-related primary lines of business: (1) We deliver a suite of customer acquisition services for small businesses, sold via telemarketing and supported by our websites and software that we have developed to manage search and other Internet services efficiently, and (2) we maintain a Yellow Pages directory with listings in every city and zip code across the U.S.

Summary Business Description

Internet Advertising Package. We provide added value to advertisers that have purchased our Internet Advertising Package (“IAP”) through promotion and branding of our website to bring customers to our advertisers. We believe that the large number of IAPs, which include the Mini-WebPages, provide users of our website with more information about our advertisers and that this feature is more readily available on our website than that of our competitors. We believe that we provide users of our website with the information they are looking for, more quickly and more efficiently.

Direct Sales Services. Since February 2008, we have added a new line of business that utilizes, but is not entirely dependent on, our directory websites and billing services. This line of business is based around using telesales and sophisticated Internet customer acquisition technologies to deliver a suite of customer acquisition services to small businesses.

Index

The most significant of these customer acquisition services is Internet search and the tying of Internet advertising services to search. This development makes it possible, even likely, that customers can find the businesses they need without ever going to a directory. The small business whose website information or advertising message is associated with a successful search becomes the likely recipient of that business. So, utilizing Internet search and related advertising is fast becoming a necessity for small businesses.

Another key Internet development is the rise of locally oriented user review sites and services, such as Yelp.com. At these sites, consumers let each other know about their experiences with local businesses. They rate and comment on the businesses. The sites also tend to provide some aspects of traditional directories as well as new services, such as placing businesses on a local map, providing driving directions, etc. At these sites, as with search, consumers can select businesses for their commerce without ever using a traditional directory.

With the emergence of these new Internet capabilities, and others that are fast emerging, the role of directories, both paper and Internet, is steadily moving toward the back end of a customer acquisition process, where search and review sites dominate the front end, where the greatest value for both customer and business resides.

Our current Direct Sales Services Suite includes:

Website acquisition whereby we obtain website address names on behalf of our small business clients.

Website development and deployment services where we create, house and manage websites on behalf of our small business clients.

Website traffic and audience development whereby we provide sophisticated search engine marketing techniques, access to our own websites, partnerships with other websites and other techniques to generate traffic to our customers’ websites, whether created and housed by us or not.

Website analytics and performance reports which generate information for our customers about activities on their websites and lead activities for their businesses based on Internet activities.

Directory services that provide both basic and enhanced directory listings for our customers on our own directory and on partner directories.

In the aggregate, these services have grown rapidly and represented 18% of our net revenues in the first six months of fiscal 2009.

Recent Events & Transactions

Change in Business Strategy

In January 2009, we evaluated our business and adopted a new business strategy that moved away from the integration of our Yellow Pages and classifieds businesses to one which addressed each of our business segments as separate entities. This evaluation was necessitated by the growth in our Direct Sales - Customer Acquisition Services business lines that provides Internet-based customer acquisition strategies for small business, as well as declining revenues from our traditional business lines (i.e. directory services and classifieds). Additionally, current economic and regulatory forces, both general and specific to our industry, impacted our consideration of our existing business model and strategy. Some of these factors include the following:

The current effects of the recession and general economic downturn;

Our perception that the general economic downturn could lead our business customers to seek lower-cost customer acquisition methods, primarily through the Internet;

The sale of our “www.yp.com” domain name in the first quarter of 2009, which domain name was associated with our traditional business;

The reconstitution of our management team with additional capability in Internet-based technologies;

Index

The termination of certain significant directory business contracts related to the traditional business;

The sale of certain of our traditional business assets including certain of our customer lists; and

Continuing losses in our classifieds business.

As a result, we made significant changes to our business strategy during the second quarter of fiscal 2009. We decided to move our strategic focus away from our directory services and classified businesses. Additionally, we discontinued the operations of our Philippines-based call center which has historically provided telemarketing services to support our directory services business - specifically those directory services which were sold during the second quarter of fiscal 2009. These strategic changes impacted our financial statements during the second quarter of fiscal 2009 in the following manner:

Impairment charges of $16,111,494 were recorded related to the write-down of our goodwill and other intangible assets;

We entered into a plan to discontinue our classifieds business and initiated shutdown activities;

We sold our customer list associated with its directory services business and recorded a gain of $2,815,952; and

We established a valuation allowance of $9,392,488 related to our deferred tax assets.

Our new strategic focus is on delivering a suite of Internet-based, local search driven, customer acquisition services for small businesses, sold via telemarketing and supported by our websites and internally developed software.

Sale of www.yp.com

On November 5, 2008, we entered into an agreement to sell our Internet domain name “www.yp.com” to YellowPages.com for a cash payment of $3,850,000. Although our future focus is on the sale of customer acquisition services for small and medium-sized businesses, our primary source of ongoing revenues is the sale of Internet Advertising Packages, which targeted users of our www.yp.com property. We have transitioned these customers to advertising on www.yellowpages.livedeal.com.

Management Changes

On January 20, 2009, we announced the following managerial changes, which occurred during and shortly after the three months ended December 31, 2008:

Gary Perschbacher was replaced by Rajeev Seshadri as Chief Financial Officer effective January 20, 2009;

President and Chief Operating Officer, John Raven submitted his resignation effective February 15, 2009;

Yishay Yovel was named Vice President of Product Management in October of 2008;

Pamela Sziebert was appointed Vice President of Marketing in November of 2008;

Dean Heistad is the Company’s new Vice President of Technology Strategy as of January 5, 2009; and,

Ruben Atchison joined the Company as Director of Search Engine Marketing in December 2008.

All of these management changes come as part of our emerging strategy to deliver the most effective suite of Internet customer acquisition services to small businesses.

Impairment of Goodwill and Other Intangibles

In January 2009, in connection with the strategic changes described above and at the direction of our Audit Committee, we commenced an interim reporting period review of our goodwill and intangible assets for impairment. In accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets”, and SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment and Disposal of Long-Lived Assets”, we evaluate goodwill and other long-lived assets for impairment on an annual basis or whenever facts and circumstances indicate that impairment may exist. Current economic and regulatory forces, both general and specific to our industry, caused management to consider our existing business model and strategy including:

The current effects of the recession and general economic downturn;

The sale of our “www.yp.com” domain name in the first quarter of 2009;

The termination of certain significant directory business contracts;

The sale of certain directory services assets that impacted the future use of our Philippines call-center;

The existence of certain regulatory actions that impacted the future use of our Philippines call-center; and

Continuing losses in our classifieds business.

In light of the changes in our business as described above, we determined that a triggering event had occurred and initiated an impairment analysis.

We conducted our analysis in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets” and SFAS No. 157 “Fair Value Measurements.” We used a discounted cash flow approach in estimating fair value as market values could not be readily determined given the unique nature of the respective assets. For the assets identified as being impaired, the cash flows associated with the underlying assets did not support a value greater than zero given the shutdown of the classifieds business and the Philippines call-center operation, the impacts of the sale of a portion of our customer list and www.yp.com domain name, and other operational changes as a result of our change in business strategy.

Based upon the analysis, management determined that the following items were impaired:

The goodwill acquired in our acquisition of LiveDeal, Inc., the business focus of which was online classified advertising;

The goodwill acquired in our acquisition of a Philippines call-center, 247 Marketing, Inc., the business focus of which is providing telemarketing services to acquire customers for our directory services business;

Assets related to our call-center operations and non-compete agreements that were made obsolete by the sale of a portion of our customer list associated with our directory services business; and

Intangible assets related to our directory services business, including URLs, internally developed software, and other miscellaneous intangible assets.

The following is a summary of said impaired assets and their net book values, which were fully written off in the second quarter of fiscal 2009:

Goodwill	$	11,706,406
Domain name and marketing related intangibles		1,879,054
Assets obsoleted through sale of customer list		1,259,680
Website and technology related intangibles		1,266,354
	$	16,111,494

Included in the assets that became obsolete through the sale of a portion of our customer list were $722,103 related to non-compete agreements and $537,577 of net assets associated with the Philippines call-center.

We performed an initial assessment of impairment prior to filing our Form 10-Q for the period ended December 31, 2008, and disclosed an estimated impairment charge of $14,300,000. We reevaluated these amounts and increased the corresponding impairment charge to $14,676,568 after identifying other website and technology related intangible assets related to the items identified earlier. Since that time, we sold a portion of our customer list, which resulted in an additional $1,400,000 of impaired assets, consisting of approximately $175,000 of website and technology related intangibles and $1,200,000 of other assets made obsolete as described above.

Sale of Customer List and Other Income

On March 9, 2009, in connection with our shift in strategic focus away from our classified and directory services business, we entered into an agreement to sell a portion of our customer list associated with our directory services business. This customer list was sold for $3,093,202, of which $2,783,097 was paid by the buyer and received during the second quarter of fiscal 2009 with the remaining amount held back in escrow pending the resolution of potential claims, if any. Such claims are contractually limited to the amount held in escrow. Net of certain accruals for transaction costs and transaction-related contingencies, we recorded a gain of $2,815,952, which is reflected in other income in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations.

We analyzed this transaction and determined that it did not meet the definition of a discontinued operation under SFAS No 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, as the customer list that was sold did not meet the definition of a component of an entity and as we expect to have continuing involvement and operations in directory services for the near future.

We also amended another directory services contract in consideration of accelerated payments on our outstanding accounts receivables and some anticipated future billings which resulted in an increase in other income of $642,268 for the three and six months ended March 31, 2009, respectively. Together with the partial customer list sale described above, these customers and contract accounted for $5,146,073 of revenue in the first six months of fiscal 2009. As a result of these transactions, we no longer expect to generate future revenues from these sources.

Discontinued Operations

As part of the Company’s strategy to evaluate each of its business as separate entities, management noted that the classifieds business has incurred significant operating losses and did not fit with the Company’s change in strategic direction. Accordingly, in March 2009, we made the strategic decision to discontinue our classifieds business and product offerings. We initiated shutdown activities in March 2009 (including the notification of certain impacted vendors and employees) and expect to conclude such activities by the end of May 2009, including the shutdown of the website previously used for classified activities. Accordingly, we do not expect any future revenues from this business segment.

We applied the provisions of SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment and Disposal of Long-Lived Assets” and determined that, with the changes in reportable operating segments as described in Note 13 to the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, the classified business met the definition of a component as it has separately identifiable operations and cash flows. Accordingly, we are reflecting the results of the classifieds business as discontinued operations. Prior year financial statements have been restated to present the classifieds operations as a discontinued operation.

In conjunction with the discontinued operations, we recorded charges of $27,328 in the second quarter of fiscal 2009 for certain exit costs relating to the shutdown of these operations which is reflected as part of income (loss) from discontinued operations in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. We expect to incur an additional $220,000 of exit costs which were not reflected in the financial statements for the period ended March 31, 2009, although such costs are only an estimate at this time.

Results of Operations

Net Revenues

	Net Revenues
	2009		2008		Change			Percent

Three Months Ended March 31,	$	3,548,275	$	6,039,356	$	(2,491,081	)		(41	)%
Six Months Ended March 31,	$	8,557,789	$	12,445,597	$	(3,887,808	)		(31	)%

Index

Net revenues decreased in the second quarter of fiscal 2009 as compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2008 due primarily to a decrease of approximately $3,251,000 in sales of our directory service products, highlighting a continuing trend amongst our legacy products. However, this decrease was partially offset by an increase in our customer acquisition services of approximately $760,000 as a result of expanded marketing efforts related to these products and the further development in our business.

Net revenues decreased in the first six months of fiscal 2009 as compared to the first six months of fiscal 2008 for similar reasons, with a decrease of approximately $5,362,000 in directory service products and an increase of $1,474,000 in sales of customer acquisition services.

We expect revenues to continue to migrate to customer acquisition services as we de-emphasize our directory services products in order to focus on our new business strategy.

Cost of Services

	Cost of Services
	2009		2008		Change		Percent

Three Months Ended March 31,	$	1,466,882	$	1,081,461	$	385,421		36	%
Six Months Ended March 31,	$	3,067,532	$	2,075,031	$	992,501		48	%

Cost of services increased in the second quarter of fiscal 2009 as compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2008. Although our revenues declined significantly in our directory services business, we experienced an increase in cost of sales of $44,000 as we continue to experience cost increases due to increased regulatory requirements and an increase in per-customer charges billed to us from our third party service providers. These factors are contributing to our strategic shift away from directory services as our primary line of business. We also experienced an increase of $341,000 in costs related to our customer acquisition services, reflecting revenue growth and the development in this business.

Costs of services increased in the first six months of fiscal 2009 as compared to the first six months of fiscal 2008 for similar reasons, with a $227,000 increase in costs related to our directory services and increased costs related to our customer acquisition services of approximately $766,000.

Gross Profit

	Gross Profit
	2009		2008		Change			Percent

Three Months Ended March 31,	$	2,081,393	$	4,957,895	$	(2,876,502	)		(58	)%
Six Months Ended March 31,	$	5,490,257	$	10,370,566	$	(4,880,309	)		(47	)%

Gross profit decreased in the second quarter and first six months of fiscal 2009 as compared to the second quarter and first six months of fiscal 2008 due to a decrease in net revenues and a decline in gross margins. Gross margins decreased to 58.7% of net revenues in the second quarter of fiscal 2009 from 82.1% of net revenues in the second quarter of fiscal 2008, due primarily to a decline in margins on the directory services business to 61.1% in the second quarter of fiscal 2009 as compared to 83.2% in the second quarter of fiscal 2008. We have seen significant growth in the margins on our customer acquisition services (51.0% in the second quarter of fiscal 2009 as compared to 25.0% in the second quarter of fiscal 2008) as this line of business was in its infancy in fiscal 2008. We expect the margins attributable to the LiveClicks and related products to improve as this business matures.

General and Administrative Expenses

	General and Administrative Expenses
	2009		2008		Change		Percent

Three Months Ended March 31,	$	4,054,354	$	3,845,145	$	209,209		5	%
Six Months Ended March 31,	$	8,313,381	$	7,240,036	$	1,073,345		15	%

Index

General and administrative expenses increased in the second quarter of fiscal 2009 as compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2008 primarily due to the following:

· Decreased compensation costs of approximately $66,000 primarily attributable to a decrease of $443,000 of stock-based compensation charges, including a $258,000 expense reduction in the second quarter of fiscal 2009 resulting from an increase our estimated forfeiture rate on stock awards, and a decrease of $150,000 of executive bonuses paid in the second quarter of fiscal 2008, partially offset by hiring of additional sales force and technological personnel in light of the development of our Las Vegas operations;

· Increased professional fees of approximately $220,000 related to increased legal expenses incurred in response to certain legal actions brought against us, fees incurred for Sarbanes-Oxley related consulting services, and increased recruitment fees to hire key personnel in response to our change in strategic direction;

· An increase of approximately $73,000 of depreciation and amortization expense relating to additional fixed assets related to the relocation of our corporate headquarters to Las Vegas, additional capitalized software development costs relating to new product offerings and accelerated depreciation on certain amortizable items that have a limited useful life; partially offset by

· A decrease in other general and administrative expenses of approximately $18,000.

General and administrative expenses increased in the first six months of fiscal 2009 as compared to the first six months of fiscal 2008 for similar reasons, as outlined below:

· Increased compensation costs of approximately $514,000 primarily attributable to the hiring of additional sales force and technological personnel in light of the development of our Las Vegas operations, partially offset by reduced executive bonuses described above and reduced stock-based compensation charges, including the $258,000 expense reduction described above;

· Increased professional fees of approximately $394,000 related to increased legal expenses incurred in response to certain legal actions brought against us, fees incurred for Sarbanes-Oxley related consulting services, and increased recruitment fees to hire key personnel in response to our change in strategic direction;

· An increase of approximately $154,000 of depreciation and amortization expense relating to additional fixed assets related to the relocation of our corporate headquarters to Las Vegas, additional capitalized software development costs relating to new product offerings and accelerated depreciation on certain amortizable items that have a limited useful life; and

· An increase in other general and administrative expenses of approximately $10,000.

The following table sets forth our recent operating performance for general and administrative expenses:

Index

Sales and marketing expenses decreased in the second quarter of fiscal 2009 as compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2008 primarily due to the following:

$543,000 of decreased telemarketing and other customer acquisition costs as we began transitioning away from marketing activities geared toward our directory services business; and

$45,000 of reduced branding and miscellaneous sales and marketing expenses; partially offset by

$221,000 of increased expenditures for click traffic which we believe is more cost effective than online advertising.

Sales and marketing expenses decreased in the first six months of fiscal 2009 as compared to the first six months of fiscal 2008 primarily due to the following:

$708,000 of decreased telemarketing and other customer acquisition costs as we began transitioning away from marketing activities geared toward our directory services business; and

$71,000 of reduced branding and miscellaneous sales and marketing expenses; partially offset by

$390,000 of increased expenditures for click traffic which we believe is more cost effective than online advertising.

Our expenditures for click traffic have dropped in the second quarter of fiscal 2009 as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2009 as we have refined our strategies and have negotiated better contracts with our vendors, resulting in a more focused and cost effective approach to marketing our business.

During the second quarter of fiscal 2009, we entered into an agreement to sell a portion of our customer list associated with our directory services business, resulting in a gain of $2,815,952. We also amended another directory services contract in consideration of accelerated payments on our outstanding accounts receivables and some anticipated future billings which resulted in an increase in other income of $642,268 for the three and six months ended March 31, 2009, respectively.

During the first quarter of fiscal 2009, we entered into an agreement to sell our Internet domain name “www.yp.com” to YellowPages.com for a cash payment of $3,850,000. We had net gain from the sale of that asset of $3,805,778, which is reflected in other income.

The remaining activity in fiscal 2009 and fiscal 2008 consisted primarily of interest income on cash balances and short-term investments.

Income Tax Provision (Benefit)

Six Months Ended March 31,	$	4,162,812	$	219,277	$	3,943,535		1798	%

The change in our income tax provision is due primarily to corresponding changes in our pre-tax income, coupled with the establishment of a valuation allowance in the second quarter of fiscal 2009, which increased our income tax provision by $9,392,488. While we have optimistic plans for our new business strategy, we determined that such a valuation allowance was necessary given the current and expected near term losses and the uncertainty with respect to our ability to generate sufficient profits from our new business model. Therefore, we established a valuation allowance for all deferred tax assets in excess of those expected to be realizable through the application of operating loss carrybacks.

During the second quarter of fiscal 2009, we discontinued our classifieds business, as described above. All prior periods have been restated to reflect the classifieds operating results, net of tax, as discontinued operations. The decrease in income in the second quarter and first six months of fiscal 2009 as compared to the second quarter and first six months of fiscal 2008 reflects the effects of our corporate strategy to de-emphasize and ultimately abandon this line of business.

Changes in net income (loss) are primarily attributable to changes in operating income, income tax expense and discontinued operations, each of which is described above.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Net cash used in operating activities was approximately $896,000 for the first six months of fiscal 2009 as compared to net cash provided by operating activities of approximately $1,609,000 for the first six months of fiscal 2008. The decrease in cash generated from operations is primarily due to a decrease in gross profit of $4,880,000 reflecting declines in our legacy businesses and $401,000 of changes in our operating expenses and working capital balances, partially offset by $2,776,000 of increased collections on receivable balances.

Our primary source of cash inflows has historically been net remittances from our billing channels, including ACH billings and LEC billings. For ACH billings, we generally receive the net proceeds through our billing service processors within 15 days of submission. For LEC billings, we receive collections on accounts receivable through the billing service aggregators under contracts to administer this billing and collection process. The billing service aggregators generally do not remit funds until they are collected. Generally, cash is collected and remitted to us (net of dilution and other fees and expenses) over a 60- to 120-day period subsequent to the billing dates. Additionally, for each monthly billing cycle, the billing aggregators and LECs withhold certain amounts, or “holdback reserves,” to cover potential future dilution and bad debt expense. These holdback reserves lengthen our cash conversion cycle as they are remitted to us over a 12- to 18-month period of time. We classify these holdback reserves as current or long-term receivables on our consolidated balance sheet, depending on when they are scheduled to be remitted to us. As of March 31, 2009, approximately 50% of our gross accounts receivable are due from two aggregators.

Index

With respect to our Direct Sales Services, we generally receive upfront payments averaging approximately one-sixth of the gross contract amount. Subsequent payments are received on an installment basis ratably over the life of the contract. Most customers purchasing these services elect to use their credit cards to effect payments, and therefore our collections are usually made within a few days of the installment due date.

With respect to our discontinued operations, our historical cash flows have approximated our income (loss) from discontinued operations as set forth on our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations, except with respect to the accrued disposal costs that were recorded during the second quarter of fiscal 2009, of which $27,328 have not been paid. We do not to incur any future cash inflows from our discontinued operations, and we expect to incur additional cash outflows of $220,000 beyond what has been accrued for additional shutdown costs.

Our most significant cash outflows include payments for marketing expenses and general operating expenses. General operating cash outflows consist of payroll costs, income taxes, and general and administrative expenses that typically occur within close proximity of expense recognition.

Net cash provided by investing activities totaled approximately $6,871,000 for the first six months of fiscal 2009 compared to net cash used for investing activities of approximately $776,000 for the first six months of fiscal 2008. The primary sources of the cash provided by our investing activities in fiscal 2009 were the sale of our Internet domain name www.yp.com, the sale of a portion of our customer list related to our directory services business, and an amendment to an existing directory services contract which provided aggregate cash inflows of $7,275,000. Additionally, in the first six months of fiscal 2009, we had expenditures for purchases of equipment and intellectual property totaling approximately $404,000, a decrease of approximately $348,000 compared to the first six months of fiscal 2008. During the first six months of fiscal 2009, we also had approximately $23,000 of cash outflows related to the two acquisitions that took place during fiscal 2007.

Net cash used for financing activities was approximately $524,000 during the first six months of fiscal 2009 compared to approximately $395,000 for the first six months of fiscal 2008. During the first six months of fiscal 2009, we repurchased 317,004 shares of our common stock, which were valued at $487,480 in the aggregate. During the first six months of fiscal 2008, we made treasury stock repurchases of 102,175 shares valued at $394,519. During the first six months of fiscal 2009, we made payments on our capital lease obligations for telecommunications equipment of $35,562. Financing activities also included $958 and $960 of preferred stock dividends during the first six months of fiscal 2009 and fiscal 2008, respectively.

We had working capital of $11,814,955 as of March 31, 2009, compared to $11,260,231 as of September 30, 2008, with current assets increasing by $543,909 and current liabilities decreasing by $10,855 from September 30, 2008 to March 31, 2009. Our cash position increased to $10,090,479 at March 31, 2009 compared to $4,639,787 at September 30, 2008 due to the effects of our results of operations and cash flows from the sale of intangible assets and our partial customer list and expenditures for equipment.

The following table summarizes our contractual obligations at March 31, 2009 and the effect such obligations are expected to have on our future liquidity and cash flows:

	Payments Due by Fiscal Year
	Total		2009		2010		2011		2012		2013		Thereafter
Operating lease commitments	$	1,699,702	$	324,560	$	551,922	$	427,621	$	316,879	$	78,720	$	-

We believe that our existing cash on hand and additional cash generated from operations will provide us with sufficient liquidity to meet our operating needs for the next 12 months.

At March 31, 2009, we had no other off-balance sheet arrangements, commitments or guarantees that require additional disclosure or measurement.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

As of March 31, 2009, we did not participate in any market risk-sensitive commodity instruments for which fair value disclosure would be required under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 107. We believe that we are not subject in any material way to other forms of market risk, such as foreign currency exchange risk or foreign customer purchases (of which there were none in the periods set forth in this report) or commodity price risk.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure controls and procedures are designed with an objective of ensuring that information required to be disclosed in our periodic reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, such as this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Disclosure controls are also designed with an objective of ensuring that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, in order to allow timely consideration regarding required disclosures.

The evaluation of our disclosure controls by our principal executive officer and principal financial officer included a review of the controls’ objectives and design, the operation of the controls, and the effect of the controls on the information presented in this Quarterly Report. Our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, does not expect that disclosure controls can or will prevent or detect all errors and all fraud, if any. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Also, projections of any evaluation of the disclosure controls and procedures to future periods are subject to the risk that the disclosure controls and procedures may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Based on their review and evaluation as of the end of the period covered by this Form 10-Q, and subject to the inherent limitations as described above, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) are effective as of the end of the period covered by this report. They are not aware of any significant changes in our disclosure controls or in other factors that could significantly affect these controls subsequent to the date of their evaluation, including any corrective actions with regard to significant deficiencies and material weaknesses. During the period covered by this Form 10-Q, there have not been any changes in our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or that are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
