TETRIDYN SOLUTIONS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)



Note 1 – Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, or GAAP, and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission for interim financial information.  Accordingly, they do not include all the information necessary for a comprehensive presentation of financial position and results of operations.

It is management’s opinion, however, that all material adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) have been made that are necessary for a fair financial statement presentation.  The results for the interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year.  The interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010, including the financial statements and notes thereto.

Note 2 – Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Nature of Business – TetriDyn Solutions, Inc. (the “Company”), specializes in providing business information technology (IT) solutions to its customers.  The Company optimizes business and IT processes by utilizing systems engineering methodologies, strategic planning, and system integration to add efficiency and value to its customers’ business processes and to help its customers identify critical success factors in their business.

Principles of Consolidation – The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, an Idaho corporation also named TetriDyn Solutions, Inc. (“TetriDyn-Idaho”).  Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Business Segments – The Company has only one business segment for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2011.

Use of Estimates – In preparing financial statements in conformity with GAAP, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported period.  Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents – For purposes of the cash flow statements, the Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents.
 
6

 
 

 


Revenue Recognition – Revenue from software licenses, related installation, and support services is recognized when earned and realizable.  Revenue is earned and realizable when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; services, if requested by the customers, have been rendered and are determinable; and collectability is reasonably assured.  Amounts received from customers prior to these criteria being met are deferred.  Revenue from the sale of software is recognized when delivered to the customer or upon installation of the software if an installation contract exists.  Revenue from post-contract support service is recognized as the services are provided, which is determined on an hourly basis.  The Company recognizes the revenue received for unused support hours under support service contracts that have had no support activity after two years.  Revenue applicable to multiple-element fee arrangements is divided among the software, the installation, and post-contract support service contracts using vendor-specific objective evidence of fair value, as evidenced by the prices charged when the software and the services are sold as separate products or arrangements.

The Company had three customers that represented more than 10% of sales for the three-month period ended March 31, 2011, and one customer that represented more than 10% of sales for the three-month period ended March 31, 2010, as follows:

 
Three Months Ended

March 31, 2010
Customer A

Customer B
20%

Customer C

--
Customer D

33%

Going Concern The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the assumption that the Company will continue as a going concern.  As reflected in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements, the Company had a net loss $81,543 and used $43,321 of cash in operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2011.  The Company had a working capital deficiency of $410,740 and a stockholders’ deficiency of $828,162 as of March 31, 2011.  The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on its ability to increase sales and obtain external funding for its product development.  The financial statements do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Income Taxes The Company accounts for income taxes under Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 740-10-25, Income Taxes.  Under ASC 740-10-25, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.  Under ASC 740-10-25, the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments – The carrying amounts of the Company’s current portion of accounts receivable, prepaid expenses, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, unearned revenue, notes payable, and related-party convertible note payable approximate fair value due to the relatively short period to maturity for these instruments.

Property and Equipment – Property and equipment are recorded at cost.  Maintenance, repairs, and renewals that neither materially add to the value of the property nor appreciably prolong its life are charged to expense as incurred.  Property and equipment are depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the asset, which is set at five years for computing equipment and vehicles and seven years for office equipment.  Gains or losses on dispositions of property and equipment are included in the results of operations when realized.

Inventory – Inventory is recorded at cost and the Company utilizes the First-In, First-Out (FIFO) cost flow method.  Gains or losses on dispositions of inventory are included in the results of operations when realized.

Net Profit (Loss) Per Common Share – Basic and diluted net profit (loss) per common share are computed based upon the weighted-average stock outstanding as defined by FASB ASC 260, “Earnings Per Share.”  As of March 31, 2011 and 2010, 3,465,000 of common share equivalents for granted stock options were antidilutive and not used in the calculation of diluted net loss per share.  Additionally, as of March 31, 2011 and 2010, 6,250,000 and 0, respectively, of common share equivalents for convertible note payables were antidilutive and not used in the calculation of diluted net loss per share.

Stock-Based Compensation On June 17, 2009, at the Company’s annual shareholders meeting, the Company’s shareholders approved the 2009 Long-Term Incentive Plan under which up to 4,000,000 shares of common stock may be issued.  The 2009 plan is to be administered either by the board of directors or by the appropriate committee to be appointed from time to time by such board of directors.  Awards granted under the 2009 plan may be incentive stock options (“ISOs”) (as defined in the Internal Revenue Code), appreciation rights, options that do not qualify as ISOs, or stock bonus awards that are awarded to employees, officers, and directors who, in the opinion of the board or the committee, have contributed or are expected to contribute materially to the Company’s success.  In addition, at the discretion of the board of directors or the committee, options or bonus stock may be granted to individuals who are not employees, officers, or directors, but contribute to the Company’s success.

Equity instruments issued to other than employees are recorded on the basis of the fair value of the instruments, as required by FASB ASC 505, “Share-Based Payment.”  Emerging Issues Task Force, or EITF, Issue 96-18, “Accounting for Equity Instruments That Are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling, Goods or Services,” defines the measurement date and recognition period for such instruments.  In general, the measurement date is when either: (a) a performance commitment, as defined, is reached; or (b) the earlier of: (i) the non-employee performance is complete; or (ii) the instruments are vested.  The measured value related to the instruments is recognized over a period based on the facts and circumstances of each particular grant as defined in the EITF.

Effective January 1, 2006, the Company adopted the provisions of FASB ASC 505 for its stock-based compensation plan.  Under FASB ASC 505, all employee stock-based compensation is measured at the grant date, based on the fair value of the option or award, and is recognized as an expense over the requisite service period, which is typically through the date the options or awards vest.  The Company adopted FASB ASC 505 using the modified prospective method.  Under this method, for all stock-based options and awards granted prior to January 1, 2006, that remain outstanding as of that date, compensation cost is recognized for the unvested portion over the remaining requisite service period, using the grant-date fair value measured under the original provisions of FASB ASC 505 for pro forma and disclosure purposes.  Furthermore, compensation costs will also be recognized for any awards issued, modified, repurchased, or cancelled after January 1, 2006.

Reclassifications – Certain amounts in the 2010 information have been reclassified to conform to the 2011 presentation.  These reclassifications had no impact on the Company’s net loss or cash flows.

Note 3 – Inventory

The Company’s inventory is comprised of regular inventory and direct materials to be used in the manufacture of new products.  During the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, the Company received computer chips in exchange for reduction of a former variable interest subsidiary’s debt to the Company by $63,432 and $43,027, respectively.

Note 4 – Investments

As of March 31, 2011 and 2010, the Company had an approximately 40% and 38% minority interest in an entity that is developing electronic livestock tracking systems.

Note 5 – Convertible Notes Payable to Related Party

In February 2011, the Company borrowed $25,000 from two of its officers and directors, repayable pursuant to a convertible promissory note.  The terms of the note are as follows: (a) no interest will accrue if the note is repaid within 60 days; (b) if the note is not repaid within 60 days, the Company is obligated to pay $2,500 for costs associated with securing the funds; (c) if the loan is repaid within one year, no annual interest rate will be charged; however, if the loan is not repaid within one year, the note will accrue interest at 6% per annum, beginning on the one-year anniversary date of the note; (d) the lenders are authorized to convert part or all of the note balance and accrued interest, if any, into the Company’s common stock at its fair value at any time while the note is outstanding; and (e) the loan’s due date for full repayment is December 31, 2014.  Since the loan was not paid within 60 days, the Company is obligated to pay $2,500 for costs associated with securing the funds.

Note 6 – Commitments and Contingencies

In March 2011, the executive compensation committee approved the annual salaries for the Chief Executive Officer and the Deputy Chief Executive Officer to remain at $108,000 and $96,000, respectively, through calendar year 2011 and for subsequent calendar years until otherwise modified by subsequent Executive Committee resolution.

Note 7 – Subsequent Event

In May 2011, the Company borrowed $25,000 from two of its officers and directors, repayable pursuant to a convertible promissory note.  The terms of the note are as follows: (a) no interest will accrue if the note is repaid within 60 days; (b) if the note is not repaid within 60 days, the Company is obligated to pay $2,500 for costs associated with securing the funds; (c) if the loan is repaid within one year, no annual interest rate will be charged; however, if the loan is not repaid within one year, the note will accrue interest at 6% per annum, beginning on the one-year anniversary date of the note; (d) the lenders are authorized to convert part or all of the note balance and accrued interest, if any, into the Company’s common stock at its fair value at any time while the note is outstanding; and (e) the loan’s due date for full repayment is December 31, 2014.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes to our financial statements included elsewhere in this report.  This discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties.  Actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of various factors discussed elsewhere in this report.

Certain information included herein contains statements that may be considered forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, such as statements relating to our anticipated revenues, gross margin and operating results, estimates used in the preparation of our financial statements, future performance and operations, plans for future expansion, capital spending, sources of liquidity, and financing sources.  Such forward-looking information involves important risks and uncertainties that could significantly affect anticipated results in the future, and accordingly, such results may differ from those expressed in any forward-looking statements made herein.  These risks and uncertainties include those relating to our liquidity requirements, the continued growth of the software and IT services industries, the success of our product development, marketing and sales activities, vigorous competition in the software industry, dependence on existing management, leverage and debt service (including sensitivity to fluctuations in interest rates), domestic or global economic conditions, the inherent uncertainty and costs of prolonged arbitration or litigation, and changes in federal or state tax laws or the administration of such laws.

Overview

We optimize business and IT processes by utilizing systems engineering methodologies, strategic development, and integration to add efficiency and value to our customers’ business processes and to help our customers identify critical success factors in their business.

We provide business IT solutions to the healthcare industry.  We are expanding our service offerings into selected other professional industries as those markets develop and as we develop new applications for our integrated system of radio frequency identification (RFID) and software solutions for tracking, management, and diagnostic systems.

Description of Expenses

General and administrative expenses consist of salaries and related costs for accounting, administration, finance, human resources, and information systems for internal use.

Professional fees expenses consist of fees related to legal, outside accounting, auditing, market analysis, and investor relations services.

Selling and marketing expenses consist of advertising, promotional activities, trade shows, travel, and personnel-related expenses.

Research and development expenses consist of payroll and related costs for software engineers, management personnel, and the costs of materials and equipment used by these employees in the development of new or enhanced product offerings.

In accordance with FASB ASC 985, “Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software to be Sold, Leased or Otherwise Marketed,” development costs incurred in the research and development of new software products to be sold, leased, or otherwise marketed are expensed as incurred until technological feasibility in the form of a working model has been established.  Internally generated, capitalizable software development costs have not been material to date.  We have charged our software development costs to research and development expense in our statements of operations.

Property and equipment are recorded at cost.  Maintenance, repairs, and renewals that neither materially add to the value of the property nor appreciably prolong its life are charged to expense as incurred.  Property and equipment are depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets.  Gains or losses on dispositions of property and equipment are included in the results of operations when realized.

Results of Operations

Comparison of Three Months Ended March 31, 2011 and 2010

Revenues

Our revenue was $211,008 for the three months ended March 31, 2011, compared to $162,261 for the three months ended March 31, 2010, representing an increase of $48,747, or 30%, for the three-month period.  The increase in revenues was due to the introduction of our ChargeCatcher revenue recovery services and the broadening of our customer base.

Cost of Revenue

Our cost of revenue was $103,223 for the three months ended March 31, 2011, compared to $75,047 for the three months ended March 31, 2010, representing an increase of $28,176, or 38%, for the three-month period.  The gross margin percentage on revenue was 51% for the three months ended March 31, 2011, and 54% for the three months ended March 31, 2010.  The decrease in the gross margin percentage for the three months ended March 31, 2011, from the three months ended March 31, 2010, was due to a higher percentage of revenue from hardware sales rather than from service sales.  Hardware sales have a significantly lower profit margin than service sales.

Although the net changes and percent changes with respect to our revenues and our cost of revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, are summarized above, the trends contained therein are limited and should not be viewed as a definitive indication of our future results.

Operating Expenses

General and Administrative — General and administrative expenses for our continuing operations, including noncash compensation expense, were $78,133 for the three months ended March 31, 2011, compared to $76,407 for the three months ended March 31, 2010, representing an increase of $1,726, or 2%, in 2011.  The increase in our general and administrative expenses for the three-month period ended March 31, 2011, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2010, was immaterial.

Professional Fees — Professional fees expenses for our continuing operations, including noncash compensation expense, were $14,509 for the three months ended March 31, 2011, compared to $24,843 for the three months ended March 31, 2010, representing a decrease of $10,334, or 42%, for the three-month period.  The decrease in our professional fees expenses for the three-month period ended March 31, 2011, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2010, is due in part to the increased legal fees associated with the 2010 designation of rights, privileges, and preferences of our Series A Preferred Stock and in part to costs associated with reporting the discontinuation of our operations in the livestock segment.

Selling and Marketing — Selling and marketing expenses for our continuing operations, including noncash compensation expense, were $30,352 for the three months ended March 31, 2011, compared to $19,010 for the three months ended March 31, 2010, representing an increase of $11,342, or 60%, for the three-month period.  The increase in our selling and marketing expenses for the three-month period ended March 31, 2011, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2010, reflects our increased focus on building our customer base and resultant sales.

Research and Development — Research and development expenses for our continuing operations, including noncash compensation expense, were $44,803 for the three months ended March 31, 2011, compared to $40,894 for the three months ended March 31, 2010, representing an increase of $3,909, or 10%, for the three-month period.  The increase in research and development expenses reflects the increased effort to commercialize our ChargeCatcher revenue recovery software.

Interest expense was $21,531 for the three months ended March 31, 2011, as compared to $13,780 for the three months ended March 31, 2010, representing an increase of $7,751, or 56%, for the three-month period.  The increase in interest expense is directly related to our use of short-term borrowing while we generate revenues to cover operations.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At March 31, 2011, our principal source of liquidity consisted of $36,783 of cash, as compared to $65,007 of cash at December 31, 2010.  In addition, our stockholders’ deficit was $828,162 at March 31, 2011, compared to stockholders’ deficit of $746,619 at December 31, 2010, an increase in the deficit of $81,543.

Our operations used $43,321 of net cash during the three months ended March 31, 2011, as compared to the $33,304 of net cash used by our operations during the three months ended March 31, 2010.  The $10,017 increase in the net cash used by our operating activities resulted primarily from payments on increased interest and finance charges in 2011 due to our increased debt.

Investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, used no net cash.  However, we had noncash investing activities of $10,000 for equipment in the three-month period ended March 31, 2010.  We also had noncash operating activities of $42,288 for the acquisition of direct materials inventory in the three-month period ended March 31, 2010.  The noncash activities were a result of obtaining equipment and materials in exchange for debt reduction with a former variable interest subsidiary.

Financing activities for our operations provided net cash of $15,097 during the three months ended March 31, 2011, compared to using net cash of $29,725 during the three months ended March 31, 2010.  The increase of $44,822 of net cash provided by financing activities is the result of reduced principal payments on notes payable while securing a related-party loan in 2011.

We are focusing our efforts on increasing revenue while we explore external funding alternatives.  We currently have contracts in place for future deliveries of our consulting services, our ChargeCatcher product, and other solutions that we believe will cover our minimum expenditures for operating costs and minimum installments due on our other indebtedness to nonaffiliates during the next 12 months.  We expect that additional sales will enable us to increase our payments on indebtedness and support the development of other products.  Although our independent auditors have expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern, we believe our growing revenues will enable us to continue as a going concern.  However, in order to expand our product offerings, we expect that we will require additional investments and sales.

As we continue development of new products and identify specific commercialization opportunities, we will focus on those product markets and opportunities for which we might be able to get external funding through joint venture agreements, strategic partnerships, or other direct investments.

We have no significant contractual obligations or commercial commitments not reflected on our balance sheet as of this date.

Critical Accounting Policies

We have identified the policies outlined below as critical to our business operations and an understanding of our results of operations.  The list is not intended to be a comprehensive list of all of our accounting policies.  In many cases, the accounting treatment of a particular transaction is specifically dictated by GAAP, with no need for management’s judgment in its application.  The impact and any associated risks related to these policies on our business operations is discussed throughout Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations when such policies affect our reported and expected financial results.  For a detailed discussion on the application of these and other accounting policies, see the notes to the December 31, 2010, consolidated financial statements.  Note that our preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of our condensed consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period.  There can be no assurance that actual results will not differ from those estimates.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue from software licenses and related installation and support services is recognized when earned and realizable.  Revenue is earned and realizable when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; services, if requested by the customers, have been rendered and are determinable; and ability to collect is reasonably assured.  Amounts billed to customers prior to these criteria being met are deferred.  Revenue from the sale of software is recognized when delivered to the customer or upon installation of the software if an installation contract exists.  Revenue from post-contract telephone support service contracts is recognized as the services are provided, determined on an hourly basis.

Revenue applicable to multiple-element fee arrangements is divided among the software, the installation, and post-contract support service contracts using vendor-specific objective evidence of fair value, as evidenced by the prices charged when the software and the services are sold as separate products or arrangements.

Income Taxes

We account for income taxes under FASB ASC 740-10-25, Income Taxes.  Under ASC 740-10-25, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.  Under ASC 740-10-25, the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements, financings, or other relationships with unconsolidated entities or other persons, also known as “special purpose entities.”

ITEM 4.  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit to the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified by the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and that information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officer (whom we refer to in this periodic report as our Certifying Officer), as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.  Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting.  Our management evaluated, with the participation of our Certifying Officer, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act) as of March 31, 2011, pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) under the Securities Exchange Act.  Based upon that evaluation, our Certifying Officer concluded that, as of March 31, 2011, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Internal control over financial reporting is a process to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP.  There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended March 31, 2011, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Our management, including our Certifying Officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal controls will prevent all errors and all fraud.  A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met.  Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs.  Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of the controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected.

Our Certifying Officer conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in Internal Control – Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.  Based on this evaluation, he concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of March 31, 2011.
