SECUREALERT, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

(1) BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial information of SecureAlert, Inc. and subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company” or “SecureAlert”) has been prepared in accordance with the Instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Certain information and disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. In the opinion of management, the accompanying interim consolidated financial information contains all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position as of June 30, 2012, and results of its operations for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the annual consolidated financial statements and notes thereto that are included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2011. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2012 may not be indicative of the results for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2012.

(2) GOING CONCERN

The Company has incurred recurring net losses and negative cash flows from operating activities. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. In order for the Company to achieve successful operations, the Company must consistently generate positive cash flows from operating activities and obtain the necessary funding to meet its projected capital investment requirements.

Management’s plan with respect to this uncertainty include expanding the market for its ReliAlert™ portfolio of products and services, raising additional capital from the issuance of stock and entering into debt financing agreements. There can be no assurance that revenues will increase rapidly enough to offset operating losses and repay debts. If the Company is unable to supplement its cash flows from operating activities by obtaining additional equity or debt financing, it will be unable to continue the marketing and development of its products and may have to cease operations.

(3) PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of SecureAlert and its subsidiaries. All significant inter-company transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Reclassifications – Due to an internal review conducted by the Company’s Board of Directors regarding certain related-party transactions entered into by former executive officers of the Company during the fiscal years 2007 and 2008, the Company made reclassifications to the fiscal year 2011 financial statements to conform to the fiscal year 2012 presentation. The Company reclassified $2,000,000 of accumulated deficit to additional paid-in capital. This reclassification had no effect on net loss for the nine months ended June 30, 2012 or the fiscal year ended September 30, 2011. The Company filed an 8-K on April 6, 2012 regarding the results of the internal review.

(4) RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) or other standard setting bodies, which are adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date. Unless otherwise discussed, the Company believes that the impact of recently issued standards that are not yet effective will not have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations upon adoption.

In September 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-08, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Goodwill for Impairment, an amendment of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. The ASU permits an entity to make a qualitative assessment of whether it is more likely than not that a reporting unit’s fair value is less than its carrying amount before applying the two-step goodwill impairment test. If an entity concludes it is not more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, it does not need to perform the two-step impairment test. The ASU is effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. This guidance is not expected to have a material impact to the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

(5) IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS

The Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the book value of an asset may not be recoverable and in the case of goodwill, at least annually. The Company evaluates whether events and circumstances have occurred which indicate possible impairment as of each balance sheet date. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its fair value, an impairment charge is recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the estimated fair value of the asset. Impairment of long-lived assets is assessed at the lowest levels for which there is an identifiable fair value that is independent of other groups of assets. During the nine months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, the Company had no impairments.

(6) REVENUE RECOGNITION

The Company’s revenue has historically been from two sources: (i) monitoring services; and (ii) product sales.

Monitoring Services

Monitoring services include two components: (a) lease contracts in which the Company provides monitoring services and leases devices to distributors or end users and the Company retains ownership of the leased device; and (b) monitoring services purchased by distributors or end users who have previously purchased monitoring devices and opt to use the Company’s monitoring services.

The Company typically leases its devices under one-year contracts with customers that opt to use the Company’s monitoring services. However, these contracts may be cancelled by either party at anytime with 30 days notice. Under the Company’s standard leasing contract, the leased device becomes billable on the date of activation or 7 to 21 days from the date the device is assigned to the lessee, and remains billable until the device is returned to the Company. The Company recognizes revenue on leased devices at the end of each month that monitoring services have been provided. In those circumstances in which the Company receives payment in advance, the Company records these payments as deferred revenue.

Product Sales

The Company may sell its monitoring devices in certain situations to its customers. In addition, the Company may sell equipment in connection with the building out and setting up a monitoring center on behalf of its customers. The Company recognizes product sales revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement with the customer exists, title passes to the customer and the customer cannot return the devices or equipment, prices are fixed or determinable (including sales not being made outside the normal payment terms) and collection is reasonably assured. When purchasing products (such as TrackerPAL™ and ReliAlert™ devices) from the Company, customers may, but are not required to, enter into monitoring service contracts with the Company. The Company recognizes revenue on monitoring services for customers that have previously purchased devices at the end of each month that monitoring services have been provided.

The Company sells and installs stand alone tracking and charging systems that may or may not require ongoing monitoring by the Company. The Company has experience in component installation costs and direct labor hours related to this type of sale and can typically reasonably estimate costs, therefore the Company recognizes revenue over the period in which the installation services are performed using the percentage-of-completion method of accounting for material installations. The Company typically uses labor hours or costs incurred to date as a percentage of the total estimated labor hours or costs to fulfill the contract as the most reliable and meaningful measure that is available for determining a project’s progress toward completion. The Company evaluates its estimated labor hours and costs and determines the estimated gross profit or loss on each installation for each reporting period. If it is determined that total cost estimates are likely to exceed revenues, the Company accrues the estimated losses immediately.

Other Matters

The Company considers an arrangement with payment terms longer than the Company’s normal terms not to be fixed or determinable, and revenue is recognized when the fee becomes due. Normal payment terms for the sale of monitoring services and products are due upon receipt to 30 days. The Company sells its devices and services directly to end users and to distributors. Distributors do not have general rights of return. Also, distributors have no price protection or stock protection rights with respect to devices sold to them by the Company. Generally, title and risk of loss pass to the buyer upon delivery of the devices.

The Company estimates its product returns based on historical experience and maintains an allowance for estimated returns, which is recorded as a reduction to accounts receivable and revenue.

Shipping and handling fees charged to customers are included as part of net revenues. The related freight costs and supplies directly associated with shipping products to customers are included as a component of cost of revenues.

(7) GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION

During the three and nine months ended June 30, 2012, the Company recognized revenues from international sources from its products and monitoring services. Revenues are attributed to the geographic areas based on the location of the customers purchasing and leasing the products and services. The revenues recognized by geographic area for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, are as follows:

	Three Months Ended June 30,				Nine Months Ended June 30,

(8) NET LOSS PER COMMON SHARE

Basic net loss per common share (“Basic EPS”) is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.

Diluted net loss per common share (“Diluted EPS”) is computed by dividing net loss attributable to common shareholders by the sum of the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding and the weighted-average dilutive common share equivalents outstanding. The computation of Diluted EPS does not assume exercise or conversion of securities that would have an anti-dilutive effect.

Common share equivalents consist of shares issuable upon the exercise of common stock options and warrants, and shares issuable upon conversion of preferred stock. As of June 30, 2012 and 2011, there were 481,623,619 and 247,617,174 outstanding common share equivalents, respectively, that were not included in the computation of Diluted EPS as their effect would be anti-dilutive.

(18) STOCK OPTIONS AND WARRANTS

Stock Incentive Plan

At the annual meeting of shareholders on December 21, 2011, the shareholders approved the 2012 Equity Compensation Plan (the “2012 Plan”), which had previously been adopted by the Board of Directors of the Company. The 2012 Plan provides for the grant of incentive stock options and nonqualified stock options, restricted stock, stock appreciation rights, performance shares, performance stock units, dividend equivalents, stock payments, deferred stock, restricted stock units, other stock-based awards and performance-based awards to employees and certain non-employees who have important relationships with the Company. A total of 18,000,000 shares are authorized for issuance pursuant to awards granted under the 2012 Plan. During the nine months ended June 30, 2012, the Company ratified options to purchase 6,000,000 shares of common stock under this plan that were previously granted on September 30, 2011. As of June 30, 2012, options to purchase 12,000,000 shares of common stock were available to distribute under the 2012 Plan.

For the nine months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, the Company calculated compensation expense of $199,755 and $175,907, respectively, related to the amortization of stock options granted under Company stock incentive plans to be vested annually. Compensation expense associated with unvested and unamortized stock options and warrants of $141,513 will be recognized in future periods through September 30, 2013.

All Options and Warrants

The fair value of each stock option and warrant grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The Company granted warrants to purchase 10,900,000 and 0 shares of common stock during the nine months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, for expenses that had been accrued as of September 30, 2011. The warrants to purchase common stock granted during the nine months ended June 30, 2012 were as follows: warrants for 6,000,000 shares at an exercise price of $0.098 per share to settle a lawsuit, valued at $253,046; warrants for a total of 3,700,000 shares at an exercise price of $0.0833 per share to current and former directors for compensation as directors, valued at $105,042; and a warrant for 1,200,000 shares at an exercise price of $0.0833 per share granted to a consultant for services, valued at $33,358. The expected life of stock options (warrants) represents the period of time that the stock options or warrants are expected to be outstanding based on the simplified method allowed under GAAP. The expected volatility is based on the historical price volatility of the Company’s common stock. The risk-free interest rate represents the U.S. Treasury bill rate for the expected life of the related stock options (warrants). The dividend yield represents the Company’s anticipated cash dividends over the expected life of the stock options (warrants).

During the nine months ended, the Company cancelled 36,500,000 of unvested warrants held by executives of the Company and issued 24,340,000 shares of common stock and accelerated the vesting of 11,500,000 of warrants for services rendered as of March 31, 2012. The modification of the equity awards resulted in $2,130,694 of compensation expense which includes the immediate recognition of the unamortized portion of the cancelled unvested warrants. Additionally, the Company recorded $1,472,732 and $248,985 of expense for the nine months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, related to the amortization and re-pricing of all stock options and warrants granted in prior years to be vested annually. Compensation expense associated with unvested and unamortized stock options and warrants of $141,513 will be recognized in future periods through September 30, 2014. The option and warrant grants for the nine months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 were valued using the Black-Scholes model with the following weighted-average assumptions:


	Nine Months Ended June 30,
	2012			2011

The dividend is payable in cash or shares of common stock at the sole discretion of the Board of Directors. If a dividend is paid in shares of common stock of the Company, the number of shares to be issued is based on the average per share market price of the common stock for the 14-day period immediately preceding the applicable accrual date (i.e., March 31, June 30, September 30, or December 31, as the case may be). Dividends are payable quarterly, no later than 30 days following the end of the accrual period.

Additionally, the holders are entitled to a liquidation preference equal to their original investment amount. In the event of the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Company (including in connection with a permitted sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets), whether voluntary or involuntary, the holders of shares of Series D Preferred Stock then outstanding will be entitled to receive, out of the assets of the Company available for distribution to its shareholders, an amount per share equal to original issue price, as adjusted to reflect any stock split, stock dividend, combination, recapitalization and the like with respect to the Series D Preferred Stock.

Series D Preferred Stock Purchase Warrants

(“SMI”) to designate 3,590,000 shares of preferred stock as Series A Convertible Redeemable Non-Voting Preferred stock (“SMI Series A Preferred stock”).

On March 24, 2008, SMI redeemed all outstanding shares of SMI Series A. The former SMI Series A shareholders were entitled to receive quarterly contingent payments through March 23, 2011, based on a rate of $1.54 per day times the number of parolee contracts calculated in days during the quarter, payable in either cash or common stock at the Company’s option. The Company was required to make quarterly adjustments as necessary to reflect the difference between the estimated and actual contingency payments to the former SMI Series A shareholders. During the nine months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, the Company recorded income of $0 and $16,683, respectively, to reflect the change between the estimated and actual contingency payments. The Company no longer has any obligation for contingent or other payments to the former holders of the SMI Series A.

General

We market and deploy offender management programs, combining patented GPS tracking technologies, fulltime 24/7/365 intervention-based monitoring capabilities and case management services. Our vision is to be the global market leader for delivering the most reliable offender management solutions, which leverage superior intervention capabilities and integrated communication technologies. We believe that we currently deliver the only offender management technology, which effectively integrates GPS, RF and an interactive 3-way voice communication system into a single piece device, deployable worldwide. Through our patented electronic monitoring technologies and services, we empower law enforcement, corrections and rehabilitation professionals with offender, defendant, probationer and parolee programs, which grant convicted criminals and pre-trial suspects an opportunity to remain accountable while “free from prison”. This provides for greater public safety at a lower cost compared to incarceration or traditional resource-intensive alternatives.

Strategy

Our global growth strategy is to empower worldwide national security officials, law enforcement, corrections departments and rehabilitation professionals with sole-sourced offender management solutions, which integrate reliable intervention technologies in support of re-socialization or mandated monitoring initiatives. The use of our interactive services and intervention products is intended to provide law enforcement and judiciaries alike, with the ability to provide offenders a level of unmatched “real-time” accountability, while preserving public safety costs that are lower than those associated with traditional incarceration or other transitional service offerings.

We intend to accomplish our global strategy through the “value-driven” yet profitable deployment of a portfolio of proprietary and non-proprietary GPS/RF real-time monitoring and intervention products and services, which can also include alcohol and drug tracking and testing on behalf of corrections, probation, law enforcement and rehabilitation personnel worldwide, all in support of offender reformation, re-socialization and recidivism reduction initiatives.

Our exclusive portfolio of products and services balances the need to dynamically track and monitor offenders with the opportunity to positively encourage and transform offenders, with the aim of reducing recidivism rates through our proprietary C.A.R.E (Correction, Accountability, Rehabilitation, Empowerment) programs and client-adapted initiatives.

We will continue to innovate, develop and deploy adaptive, cost-effective and reliable interactive technologies, which meet the ever-changing needs of our global clients, while providing value-driven and enhanced public safety services. Our goal is to continue to manufacture proprietary technologies, while also procuring complementary, best-in-class technologies through world-class companies such as Alcohol Monitoring Services, which markets SCRAM continuous alcohol monitoring devices and/or 3M, which markets the E3 Presence Monitoring, MEMS Alcohol Monitoring and TRaCE Inmate Tracking products.

In summary, SecureAlert is committed to delivering a superior proprietary and non-proprietary portfolio of reliable, intervention monitoring products and services for the global offender management marketplace, where we are currently targeting pilots and deployments throughout the world in various regions (North America, Latin America and Caribbean, Australasia and Eastern and Western Europe). We have shown meaningful international growth for the nine months ended June 30, 2012, and we anticipate international growth to continue for the remainder of fiscal year 2012.

Critical Accounting Policies

In Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2011 included in our Form 10-K, we discuss those accounting policies that are considered to be significant in determining our results of operations and financial position.

The preparation of financial statements requires management to make significant estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. By their nature, these judgments are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty. We assess the reasonableness of our estimates, including those related to bad debts, inventories, intangible assets, warranty obligations, product liability, revenue, and income taxes. We base our estimates on historical experience as well as available current information on a regular basis. Management uses this information to form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Results of Operations

Three months ended June 30, 2012, compared to three months ended June 30, 2011

Revenues

For the three months ended June 30, 2012, we had revenues from operations of $4,793,839, compared to $4,430,506 for the three months ended June 30, 2011, an increase of $363,333 (8%). For the three months ended June 30, 2012, revenues from monitoring and related services were $4,484,002 compared to $3,729,220 for the three months ended June 30, 2011. This increase of $754,782 (20%) was primarily attributable to an increase in international monitoring and other related services of $867,187 for the three months ended June 30, 2012, compared to the same period ended in 2011. Additionally, domestic revenues decreased $112,402 for the three months ended June 30, 2012, compared to the same period ended in 2011.

Product revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2012 were $309,837 compared to $701,286 for the three months ended June 30, 2011. This decrease of $391,449 (56%) resulted primarily from $601,146 of revenues recognized from the partial build out of an on-site incarceration monitoring system during the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $164,148 of the same type of revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2012.

For the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, domestic revenues from our patented one-piece activated GPS tracking devices supported entirely about a single limb of the monitored person (“single limb GPS monitoring equipment”) totaled $1,587,684 and $1,659,325 respectively.

Cost of Revenues

During the three months ended June 30, 2012, cost of revenues totaled $2,625,703, compared to cost of revenues during the three months ended June 30, 2011 of $2,401,070. This increase of $224,633 in cost of revenues resulted primarily from increases of $198,382 in royalties also related to international sales, $169,288 in costs related to international sales and $86,977 in communication costs, partially offset by a decrease of $239,779 in product costs. As a percentage of revenues, cost of revenues were 55 and 54 percent of revenues in the quarters ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Amortization for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 totaled $319,411 and $331,984 respectively. Amortization costs are based on a three-year useful life for TrackerPAL™ and ReliAlert™ devices. Devices that are leased or retained by us for future deployment or sale are amortized over three years. We believe this three-year life is appropriate due to rapid changes in electronic monitoring technology and the corresponding potential for obsolescence. Management periodically assesses the useful life of the devices for appropriateness.

Gross Profit and Margin

During the three months ended June 30, 2012, gross profit totaled $2,168,136, or 45 percent of net revenues, compared to $2,029,436, or 46 percent of net revenues during the three months ended June 30, 2011. The increase of $138,700 in gross profit was primarily due to higher net revenues during the quarter.

Research and Development Expenses

During the three months ended June 30, 2012, we incurred research and development expenses of $310,810 compared to similar expenses recognized during the three months ended June 30, 2011 totaling $350,296. These research and development costs were incurred to improve efficiency in the software, firmware and hardware of our products and services.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

During the three months ended June 30, 2012, our selling, general and administrative expenses totaled $5,405,999, compared to $3,859,014 for the three months ended June 30, 2011. The increase of $1,546,985 is the result of increases in consulting expense ($2,050,425), offset by decreases in taxes ($116,786), travel ($105,026), bad debt ($100,639), payroll and related taxes ($81,187), and other expenses ($99,802). The increase of consulting expense includes non-cash expense of $2,130,694 related to a modification of equity awards to employees during the three months ended June 30, 2012 for the cancellation of unvested stock warrants previously granted and the issuance of restricted common stock.

Other Income and Expense

For the three months ended June 30, 2012, interest expense was $663,247, compared to $143,364 for the three months ended June 30, 2011. This amount includes non-cash interest expense of $602,727 related to debt discount amortization in connection with an acquisition and debt discounts on convertible debentures.

Net Loss

We had a net loss for the three months ended June 30, 2012 totaling $4,147,909, compared to a net loss of $2,379,516 for the three months ended June 30, 2011. This increase of $1,768,393 in net loss is due primarily to increases in non-cash compensation expenses.

Nine months ended June 30, 2012, compared to nine months ended June 30, 2011

Revenues

For the nine months ended June 30, 2012, we had revenues from operations of $15,252,497, compared to $11,996,501 for the nine months ended June 30, 2011, an increase of $3,255,996 (27%). Revenues from monitoring and related services for the nine months ended June 30, 2012 were $13,477,667 compared to $10,842,430 for the nine months ended June 30, 2011. This increase of $2,635,237 (24%) was primarily attributable to an increase in revenues from international monitoring and other related services of $3,034,697 for the nine months ended June 30, 2012, compared to the same period ended in 2011. Additionally, domestic revenues increased $273,540 for the nine months ended June 30, 2012, compared to the same period ended in 2011.

Product revenues increased from $1,154,071 for the nine months ended June 30, 2011 to $1,774,830 for the nine months ended June 30, 2012. This increase of $620,759 (54%) was primarily attributable to one-time revenues of $1,071,983 recognized in connection with the development of a charging solution for an international customer.

For the nine months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, domestic revenues from single limb GPS monitoring equipment totaled $4,688,376 and $4,816,578 respectively.

Cost of Revenues

During the nine months ended June 30, 2012, cost of revenues totaled $8,138,531, compared to cost of revenues during the nine months ended June 30, 2011 of $6,400,925, an increase of $1,737,606. The increase in cost of revenues resulted primarily from increases of $708,854 in royalties related to international sales, $369,709 in amortization expense, and $221,930 in communication costs.

Amortization for the nine months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 totaled $1,106,509 and $795,069, respectively. Amortization costs are based on a three-year useful life for TrackerPAL™ and ReliAlert™ devices. Devices that are leased or retained by us for future deployment or sale are amortized over three years. We believe this three-year life is appropriate due to rapid changes in electronic monitoring technology and the corresponding potential for obsolescence. Management periodically assesses the useful life of the devices for appropriateness.

We expect the cost of revenues as a percentage of revenues to decrease in the foreseeable future due to (a) economies of scale realized through projected increases in revenues, and (b) further development of our proprietary software, enabling each operator to monitor more devices resulting in lower monitoring center costs. Cost of revenues as a percentage of revenues was 53 and 53 percent of revenues in the nine months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Gross Profit and Margin

During the nine months ended June 30, 2012, gross profit totaled $7,113,966, or 47 percent of net revenues, compared to $5,595,576, or 47 percent of net revenues during the nine months ended June 30, 2011. The improvement of $1,518,390 during the nine months ended June 30, 2012 was due to higher net revenues.

Research and Development Expenses

During the nine months ended June 30, 2012, we incurred research and development expenses of $987,215 compared to similar expenses recognized during the nine months ended June 30, 2011 totaling $1,126,703. These research and development costs were incurred to improve efficiency in the software, firmware and hardware of our products and services.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

During the nine months ended June 30, 2012, our selling, general and administrative expenses totaled $13,004,856, compared to $10,748,168 for the nine months ended June 30, 2011. The increase of $2,256,688 is the primarily the result of increases in consulting ($2,535,852) and other expenses ($56,823), offset by decreases in travel ($194,251), and taxes ($141,736). The increase of consulting expense includes non-cash expense of $2,130,694 related to a modification of equity awards to employees during the nine months ended June 30, 2012 for the cancellation of unvested stock warrants previously granted and the issuance of restricted common stock.

Other Income and Expense

For the nine months ended June 30, 2012, interest expense was $1,038,302, compared to $635,236 for the nine months ended June 30, 2011. This amount includes non-cash interest expense of $676,584 related to debt discount amortization in connection with an acquisition, debt discounts on convertible debentures and re-pricing of warrants.

Net Loss

We had a net loss for the nine months ended June 30, 2012 totaling $7,729,774, compared to a net loss of $6,963,816 for the nine months ended June 30, 2011. This increase of $765,958 in net loss is due primarily to increases in non-cash compensation expenses partially offset by increases in gross profit.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We are currently unable to finance our business solely from cash flows from operating activities. During the nine months ended June 30, 2012, we supplemented cash flows to finance our business from the sale and issuance of debt and equity securities, providing net cash proceeds from financing activities of $3,270,976.

As of June 30, 2012, we had unrestricted cash of $818,517 and a working capital deficit of $1,901,941, compared to unrestricted cash of $949,749 and a working capital deficit of $1,201,955 as of September 30, 2011. For the nine months ended June 30, 2012, our operating activities used cash of $1,883,043 compared to $4,712,857 for the nine months ended June 30, 2011. This improvement is primarily a result of increased cash flow related to the increase in revenues of $3,255,996 in addition to improved collections of accounts receivable of $1,766,000 offset by reductions in accounts payable of $1,539,294 and additions to prepaid and other assets of $1,104,638.

We used cash of $1,519,165 for investing activities during the nine months ended June 30, 2012, compared to $2,325,790 of cash used in investing activities in the nine months ended June 30, 2011.

Financing activities for the nine months ended June 30, 2012, provided cash of $3,270,976, compared to $6,578,255 for the nine months ended June 30, 2011. For the nine months ended June 30, 2012, we received $2,980,000 from the issuance of related-party debt, proceeds of $2,000,000 from the issuance of convertible debentures to related parties, net proceeds of $1,612,000 from the sale and issuance of shares of Series D Convertible Preferred stock, proceeds of $500,000 from the issuance of convertible debentures, and proceeds of $2,217 from the issuance of notes payable. Cash decreased by $3,177,947 due to payments on related-party notes payable and $645,294 due to payments on notes payable. Cash provided by financing activities was used to purchase monitoring equipment.

We incurred a net loss of $7,729,774 for the nine months ended June 30, 2012, and a loss from operations of $6,878,105. In addition, we had an accumulated deficit of $238,785,293 as of June 30, 2012. These factors, as well as the risk factors set out in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2011, raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Our plans with respect to this uncertainty include raising additional capital from the sale and issuance of equity securities, entering into debt financing agreements and additional borrowings, and expanding our market for our ReliAlert™ portfolio of product and monitoring services. There can be no assurance that revenues will increase rapidly enough to deliver profitable operating results and pay our debts as they come due. Likewise, there can be no assurance that we will be successful in raising additional capital from the sale of equity or debt securities. If we are unable to increase cash flows from operating activities or obtain additional financing, we will be unable to continue the development of our business and may have to cease operations.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Our business is extending to several countries outside the United States, and we intend to continue to expand our foreign operations. As a result, our revenues and results of operations are affected by fluctuations in currency exchange rates, interest rates, and other uncertainties inherent in doing business in more than one currency. In addition, our operations are exposed to risks that are associated with changes in social, political, and economic conditions in the foreign countries in which we operate, including changes in the laws and policies that govern foreign investment, as well as, to a lesser extent, changes in United States laws and regulations relating to foreign trade and investment.

Foreign Currency Risks. We had $4,442,198 and $1,173,347 in revenues from sources outside the United States for the nine months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Although we normally transact the sale of monitoring equipment and services in U.S. Dollars, we received some payments in an equivalent value of foreign currencies during the periods indicated, which resulted in a foreign exchange loss of $30,033 and $97 during the nine months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. We occasionally purchased goods and services in foreign currencies which did not result in any currency exchange rate losses during the nine months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011. Changes in currency exchange rates affect the relative prices at which we sell our products and purchase goods and services. Given the uncertainty of exchange rate fluctuations, we cannot estimate the effect of these fluctuations on our future business, product pricing, results of operations, or financial condition.

We do not use foreign currency exchange contracts or derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes. To the extent foreign sales become a more significant part of our business in the future, we may seek to implement strategies which make use of these or other instruments in order to minimize the effects of foreign currency exchange on our business.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures to ensure that information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Our management evaluated, with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Based on this evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2012.

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting during our quarter ended June 30, 2012 that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

During the nine months ended June 30, 2012, we sold the following debt and equity securities without registration under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”), in reliance upon exemptions from registration available under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act and rules and regulations promulgated under the Securities Act, including, but not limited to, Regulation D and Regulation S.

Common Stock

We issued a total of 25,084,008 shares of common stock as payment of dividends to the accredited investors who are holders of our Series D Convertible Preferred stock. We also issued 24,340,000 shares to certain employees for the cancellation of previously granted stock options and warrants for the purchase of an aggregate of 36,500,000 shares of common stock which resulted in non-cash compensation expense of $2,130,694. We also issued 12,800,918 shares of common stock to an entity owned by a significant shareholder of the Company for payment of accrued royalties, as well as 1,689,714 shares in connection with a note purchase agreement, 600,000 shares to a director for services, 452,783 shares for consulting services, and 420,000 shares for the conversion of 70 shares of Series D Convertible Preferred stock.

Convertible Debenture

We issued convertible debentures with a total principal balance of $2,500,000 during the nine months ended June 30, 2012. The debentures are convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at a rate of $0.03 per share. Originally, the debentures matured on July 15, 2012 and did not earn interest, however, subsequent to June 30, 2012, the debenture agreements were amended such that the maturity date was extended to August 31, 2012 and interest will be earned at the rate of eight percent per annum accumulated from the date the Company received funds. The debentures will automatically be converted upon the Company raising an additional $8,000,000 in debt or equity at terms less dilutive to shareholders than this convertible debenture.
