Fortress
International Group, Inc.
Notes
to the Consolidated Financial Statements
The
consolidated financial statements are for the three and nine months ended
September 30, 2007 and 2006 for Fortress International Group, Inc. (the
“Successor Company”, “Fortress” or the “Company”) and are for the period January
1, 2007 to January 19, 2007 (the acquisition date) and the three and nine months
ended September 30, 2006 for VTC, L.L.C. t/a Total Site Solutions and Vortech,
LLC ( collectively the “Predecessor Company” or “TSS/Vortech”). The
Company has included the results of operations of TSS/Vortech, Innovative Power
Systems, Inc. and Quality Power Systems, Inc. from the respective acquisition
dates through September 30, 2007 in its financial statements.
Except
for the balance sheets of the Company and TSS/Vortech as of December 31,
2006, which are derived from audited financial statements, the accompanying
consolidated financial statements are unaudited. In the opinion of management,
all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of such financial position and
results of operations have been included. All such adjustments are of a normal
recurring nature. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results
for
a full year.
The
consolidated financial statements and notes are presented as required by Form
10-Q and do not contain certain information included in the Company’s annual
financial statements and the notes thereto. These financial statements should
be
read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements and the
notes thereto filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) in the
Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006.
The interim financial statements of TSS/Vortech have also been presented in
accordance with the requirements of Form 10-Q.
NOTE
B -
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 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring
fair value in generally accepted accounting principles and expands disclosures
about fair value measurements.
Specifically,
this Statement sets forth a definition of fair value, and establishes a
hierarchy prioritizing the inputs to valuation techniques, giving the highest
priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities
and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. The provisions of SFAS No.
157
are generally required to be applied on a prospective basis, except to certain
financial instruments accounted for under SFAS No. 133, Accounting
for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities,
for
which the provisions of SFAS No. 157 should be applied retrospectively. SFAS
No.
157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning
after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal
years. The Company is evaluating the effect of this statement, if any, on
its 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 — Including an
amendment of FASB Statement No. 115
(SFAS
No. 159). SFAS No. 159 permits an entity, at specified election dates,
to choose to measure certain financial instruments and other items at fair
value. The objective of SFAS No. 159 is to provide entities with the opportunity
to mitigate volatility in reported earnings caused by measuring related assets
and liabilities differently, without having to apply complex hedge accounting
provisions. SFAS No. 159 is effective for accounting periods beginning
after November 15, 2007. The Company is currently assessing the impact of
adopting SFAS No. 159 on the consolidated financial statements.

ACQUISITIONS
TSS/VORTECH
On
January 19, 2007, the Company acquired all of the outstanding membership
interests of TSS/Vortech pursuant to the Second Amended and Restated Membership
Interest Purchase Agreement dated July 31, 2006, as amended by the Amendment
to
the Second Amended and Restated Membership Interest Purchase Agreement dated
January 16, 2007 (the “Purchase Agreement”). The closing consideration consisted
of (i) $11,000,000 in cash, (ii) the assumption of $154,599 of debt of
TSS/Vortech, (iii) 2,602,813 shares of Fortress common stock, of which 2,534,988
shares were issued to the selling members and 67,825 shares were issued to
Evergreen Capital LLC as partial payment of certain outstanding consulting
fees,
and (iv) $10,000,000 in two convertible promissory notes of $5,000,000 each,
bearing interest at 6%.
All
of
the shares issued to the selling members (2,534,988 shares) were placed into
escrow accounts as follows: 2,461,728 into the General Indemnity escrow to
secure the rights of Fortress under the acquisition and 73,260 shares into
the
Balance Sheet escrow subject to TSS/Vortech delivering $1,000,000 in working
capital. These shares will be released subject to certain conditions under
the
respective agreements. Based on a determination of net working capital at the
acquisition date, the Company has recorded a payable for approximately $200,000,
included in accounts payable and accrued expenses in the September 30, 2007
consolidated balance sheet, expected to be paid to the sellers as a purchase
price adjustment. The share price was based upon the average closing price
for
twenty days prior to the public announcement of the purchase.
Shareholders
owning 756,100 shares of Fortress common stock voted against the acquisition
and
requested to receive the pro rata share of cash in the Trust Fund. The Company
remitted approximately $4,342,000 in exchange for these shares.
Upon
consummation of the merger approximately $28.9 million was released from the
trust account to be used by the Company.
Under
the
purchase method of accounting, the preliminary purchase price has been allocated
to the net tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed,
based upon preliminary estimates, which assume that historical cost approximates
fair value of the assets and liabilities of TSS/Vortech. As such, management
estimates that a substantial portion of the excess purchase price will be
allocated to non-amortizable intangible assets. These estimates are subject
to
change upon the finalization of the valuation of certain assets and liabilities
and may be adjusted in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 141,
Business
Combinations.
Management has preliminarily estimated that the transaction will result in
$14.7
million of goodwill that is expected to be deductible for income tax purposes.
Additionally, management estimated that approximately $20.4 million of the
purchase price is allocable to customer-related intangible assets, which include
non-contractual customer relationships, order backlog, and trade name.
Such intangible assets will be amortized over periods ranging from one to
fifteen years based upon factors such as customer relationships and contract
periods.
We
paid a
premium (i.e., goodwill) over the fair value of the net tangible and
preliminarily identified intangible assets acquired for a number of reasons,
including the following:
·
|
TSS/Vortech
has a broad range of experience, contacts and service offerings in
the
mission-critical facility industry. TSS/Vortech has a very experienced
and
committed management team with strong core competencies. TSS has
a
significant number of personnel with security clearances which is
important in the homeland security industry.
|
·
|
Our
belief in TSS/Vortech’s business model and potential for growth,
increasing demand in its industry and its complete service offering
when
compared to other similar companies. In addition TSS/Vortech can
provide a
platform to assist us in managing acquisitions in the
future.
|
·
|
TSS/Vortech
has been building a national business development organization to
expand
beyond its current regional presence.
|
The
results of operations for TSS/Vortech have been included in the Consolidated
Statements of Operations from the acquisition date through September 30,
2007.

Comm
Site of South Florida, Inc.
On
May 7,
2007, the Company purchased all of the assets of Comm Site of South Florida,
Inc. for $150,000 paid in cash. In connection with this purchase, $135,000
has
been allocated to goodwill with the balance to other current assets and property
and equipment, based on their historic cost which management believes
approximates fair value.
Innovative
Power Systems, Inc. and Quality Power Systems, Inc.
On
September 24, 2007, we entered into a definitive Stock Purchase Agreement (the
“Agreement”) with Innovative Power Systems, Inc. (IPSI), Quality Power Systems,
Inc. (QPSI, and collectively with IPSI “Innovative”) and the stockholders of
Innovative (collectively, the “Sellers”).
Pursuant
to the Agreement, the Company acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding
capital stock of Innovative for the aggregate consideration consisting of
(i) $1,747,000 in cash, (ii) a promissory note (the “Note”) for the aggregate
amount of $300,000 payable to Sellers accruing at 6% annually from the date
of
issuance of the Note (the Note is payable in three years, based on a five-year
amortization schedule, as described in the Note), (iii) $150,000 worth of shares
of common stock of the Company, calculated based on the average of the last
reported sale price per share of the Company on the Nasdaq over the 20
consecutive trading days ending on the two trading days prior to the closing
(25,155 shares of the Company’s common stock), and (iv) additional earn-out
amounts if Innovative achieves certain targeted earnings for each of the
calendar years 2007-2010, as further described in the Agreement.
The
Company has not completed an allocation of the purchase price and has
preliminarily allocated the entire excess amount of $1,650,000 to goodwill.
Management believes that the historical cost of assets and liabilities acquired
approximates their fair value. This allocation is subject to change upon the
finalization of the valuation of certain assets and liabilities and will be
adjusted in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 141, Business
Combinations.
Management does not believe the goodwill resulting from this acquisition will
be
deductible for income tax purposes.
We
paid a
premium (i.e., goodwill) over the fair value of the net tangible and
preliminarily identified intangible assets acquired for a number of reasons,
including Innovative has additional experience, contacts and service offerings
in the mission-critical facility industry and is complementary to the business
of TSS/Vortech.

NOTE
E -
INCOME (LOSS) PER SHARE
Successor
— Basic and diluted net loss per share information is presented in accordance
with SFAS No. 128, Earnings
Per Share.
Basic loss per share is calculated by dividing the net loss attributable to
common stockholders by the weighted-average common shares outstanding during
the
period. Diluted loss per share is calculated by dividing net loss
attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average common shares
outstanding which includes common stock equivalents. The Company’s common
stock equivalents consist of outstanding warrants and convertible notes
payable. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007, a total
of 15,600,000 common stock equivalents, were excluded from the calculation
of
diluted income per share as their impact would have been anti-dilutive. In
addition, any impact from the conversion of our convertible notes payable
discussed in Note I are excluded from the computation of earnings per share
since their conversion would also be anti-dilutive.

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
On
January 17, 2007, the stockholders of the Company approved the Fortress
International Group, Inc. 2006 Omnibus Incentive Compensation Plan (the “Plan”).
Under the Plan, the Company reserved 2.1 million shares of the Company’s common
stock for issuance to employees and directors through incentive stock options,
or non-qualified stock options or through restricted stock units. Pursuant
to
the Plan, on January 19, 2007 the Company issued of 574,000 shares of restricted
stock with grant date value of $5.44 per share in connection with the
acquisition of TSS. These shares cliff vest on January 19, 2010
.
On
May 1,
2007, the Company issued a total of 86,832 shares of restricted stock with
a
grant date value of $5.43 per share to the non-employee members of the Board
of
Directors. These shares were issued as follows:
Each
non-employee director was granted 10,000 shares which vest over a two year
period, one third on the grant date, and each one-half of the remaining balance
on the first and second anniversaries of the grant date. A total of 50,000
shares were issued to the non-employee directors under this
arrangement.
11
Each
of
the two new members of the Board of Directors received a one-time grant of
$100,000 worth of restricted stock which vests over a three year period, with
each one third of the shares vesting on the first, second and third
anniversaries of the grant date. A total of 36,832 shares were issued to the
two
new non-employee directors under this arrangement.
On
September 7, 2007, the Company issued 70,000 shares of restricted stock to
three
employees (including the Chief Financial Officer the terms of which were
disclosed in an 8-K filed on August 8, 2007), with a grant date price of $5.99
which have various vesting periods between eighteen months and three years.
We
are
accounting for these grants of restricted stock in accordance with SFAS
No. 123(R), Share
Based Payment,
which
requires that compensation costs related to share-based payment transactions
be
recognized in financial statements. Under the fair value recognition provisions
of SFAS No. 123(R), the Company recognizes stock-based compensation based
upon the fair value of the stock-based awards taking into account the effects
of
the employees expected exercise and post-vesting employment termination
behavior. The Company recognized $320,000 ($.03 per basic and diluted
share) of stock-based compensation expense for the three months ended September
30, 2007, for the nine months ended September 30, 2007, the Company recognized
$786,000 ($.07 per basic and diluted share). These amounts are recorded as
selling, general and administrative expense.
In
February 2007, the Company entered into an agreement with an advisor in which
it
was obligated to pay the advisor a warrant for the purchase of 125,000
shares of its common stock. The fair value of these warrants has been
determined using the Black Sholes model and is recognized over the term of
the
agreement. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007, the Company
recognized $213,000 ($.02 per basic and diluted share) of stock-based
compensation expense which has been recorded as selling, general and
administrative expense.
NOTE
G - COMMON
STOCK REDEMPTION
Prior
to
the consummation of the acquisition of TSS/Vortech, the Company announced and
implemented a common stock repurchase program under which it may purchase up
to
3,000,000 shares of common stock. Currently the Board of Directors has
authorized the repurchase of up to 500,000 shares under this program. For
the three months ended September 30, 2007, the Company paid approximately
$127,000 in cash to redeem 24,300 shares of common stock at an average price
of
$5.25 per share. For the nine months ended September 30, 2007, the Company
has
paid approximately $2,036,000 in cash to purchase 379,075 shares at an
average price of $5.37 per share. On June 13, 2007, the Company purchased
221,000 shares and currently has 158,075 shares of treasury stock.
On
January 19, 2007, the Company announced that it would repurchase shares of
those shareholders that voted against the acquisition of TSS and requested
that
their 756,100 shares be redeemed at the then per share trust value of $5.74
per
share (including deferred interest of $0.38 per share). This program was
completed in January 2007.
NOTE
H -
INCOME TAXES
The
Company’s effective tax rates are based upon the effective tax to be applicable
to the full fiscal year. Through September 30, 2007, the Company has
incurred certain tax losses which may be carried back for federal tax purposes
resulting in an income tax recoverable of approximately $840,000.
The
Company recorded no income tax benefit or expense for the three months ended
September 30, 2007, primarily due to the establishment of a valuation allowance
on deferred tax assets. The Company has recorded an income tax benefit of
$349,325 for the nine months ended September 30, 2007, which is the result
of
the income tax recoverable of $840,000 and the establishment of a valuation
allowance equal to the balance of the remaining deferred tax assets as of
September 30, 2007. The Company evaluated its remaining deferred tax assets
(consisting primarily of net operating loss carryforwards) remaining after
carryback and has determined that it is more likely-than-not at this time that
these assets will not be realized and has established a full valuation allowance
for these amounts.
12
TSS/Vortech
is a limited liability company and incurred no material income taxes prior
to
the acquisition.
Effective
January 1, 2007, the Company was required to adopt FASB Interpretation No.
48,
Accounting
for Uncertainty in Income Taxes
(FIN
48). FIN 48 prescribes a more-likely-than-not threshold of financial
statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to
be
taken in a tax return. This interpretation also provides guidance on
derecognition of income tax assets and liabilities, classification of current
and deferred tax assets and liabilities, accounting for interest and penalties
associated with tax positions, accounting for income taxes in interim periods
and income tax disclosures. Since inception and through January 1, 2007,
the adoption date of this standard, the Company was in essence a “blank check”
company with no substantive operations. The Company files its tax returns as
prescribed by the tax laws of the jurisdictions in which it operates. The
Company’s 2004 through 2006 tax years are still subject to examination by the
IRS. Various state jurisdiction tax years remain open to examination. As a
result, management has concluded that the adoption of this standard had no
material effect on its financial position or results of operations.
Management
is in the process of evaluating the various tax positions associated with the
acquisition of TSS/Vortech and Innovative and is of the opinion that any
deferred tax liabilities that would ultimately result from uncertain tax
positions related to these entities would be covered by indemnification
provisions provided in the acquisition agreements or would result in an
adjustment to goodwill.
NOTE
I -
NOTES PAYABLE
In
connection with the TSS/Vortech acquisition, the Company entered into two
convertible promissory notes payable (in equal amounts with each the
Company’s
Chief Executive Officer and President ) totaling $10,000,000. The notes bear
interest at six percent per year and have a term of five years. Interest only
is
payable during the first two years of each note with principal payments
commencing on the second anniversary (January 19, 2009) and continuing
throughout the balance of the term of the notes in equal quarterly installments
totaling $833,333. At any time after the sixth month following the closing
of
the acquisition, the notes are convertible into shares of our common stock
at a
conversion price of $7.50 per share. At any time after the sixth month following
the closing of the acquisition, the notes are automatically convertible if
the
average closing price of Fortress common stock for 20 consecutive trading days
equals or exceeds $7.50 per share.
On
August
29, 2007, the Company entered into an agreement with the Chief Executive Officer
( the “CEO”) to retire $2,500,000 of the note due to him by paying $2,000,000
and the CEO agreed to use the proceeds to purchase the Company’s common stock
and warrants pursuant to a 10b5-1 plan with
a
designated broker in accordance with the conditions of Rule 10b-18 of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
The
prepayment discount realized of $500,000 has been recorded as additional paid-in
capital. This transaction was completed on September 28, 2007.
In
connection with the Innovative acquisition, the Company entered into a
promissory note with the sellers in the amount of $300,000. The note bears
interest at six percent per year and is payable in quarterly installments of
$15,000 starting December 31, 2007 with a final balloon payment of $120,000
due
on December 31, 2010.

2010 totaling $106,885 that bear interest at rates up to six percent, and are
secured by vehicles.
Principal

Company
Overview
We
were
formed in Delaware on December 20, 2004 as a special purpose acquisition
company formed under the name “Fortress America Acquisition Corporation” for the
purpose of acquiring, through a merger, capital stock exchange, asset
acquisition or other business combination, operating businesses in the homeland
security industry.
On
January 19, 2007, we acquired all of the outstanding membership interests
of each of VTC, L.L.C., doing business as Total Site Solutions (“TSS”), and
Vortech, L.L.C. (“Vortech” and, together with TSS, “TSS/Vortech”) and
simultaneously changed our name to Fortress International Group, Inc. (the
“Company”). The closing consideration consisted of (i) $11,000,000 in
cash, (ii) the assumption of $154,599 of debt of TSS/Vortech,
(iii) 3,176,813 shares of our stock, of which 2,534,988 shares were issued
to the selling members, 67,825 shares were issued to Evergreen Capital LLC
as
partial payment of certain outstanding consulting fees, and
(iii) $10,000,000 in two convertible, interest-bearing promissory notes of
$5,000,000 each.
On
May 7,
2007, the Company purchased all of the assets of Comm Site of South Florida,
Inc. for $150,000 paid in cash.
On
September 24, 2007, we acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding capital
stock
of Innovative Power Systems, Inc. and Quality Power Systems, Inc. (collectively
“Innovative”) pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement as of the same date for
the aggregate consideration consisting of (i) $1,747,000 in cash, subject to
certain adjustment as provided in the Agreement, (ii) a promissory note (the
“Note”) for the aggregate amount of $300,000 payable to Sellers, plus interest
accruing at 6% annually from the date of the issuance of the Note (the Note
is
payable in three years, based on a five-year amortization schedule, as described
in Note), (iii) $150,000 worth of shares of common stock of the Company,
calculated based on the average of the last reported sale price per share of
the
Company on the Nasdaq over the 20 consecutive trading days ending on the two
trading days prior to the closing (25,155 shares of the Company’s common stock),
and (iv) additional earn-out amounts if the Power Systems Entities achieve
certain targeted earnings for each of the calendar years 2007-2010, as further
described in the Agreement.
We
provide comprehensive services for the planning, design, and development of
mission-critical facilities and information infrastructure. We also provide
a
single source solution for highly technical mission-critical facilities such
as
data centers, operation centers, network facilities, server rooms, security
operations centers, communications facilities and the infrastructure systems
that are critical to their function. Our services include technology consulting,
engineering and design management, construction management, system
installations, operations management, and facilities management and
maintenance.
During
the past three years, our revenue growth has been driven mainly by government
spending on homeland security initiatives spurred by the events of
September 11, 2001. These events have also affected businesses, which are
increasing spending on data security and privacy. These homeland security
initiatives include projects that require the hardening, relocation, renovation
and upgrade of mission-critical facilities to protect critical government
information networks and data processing centers against attacks. In addition
to
these factors there are other drivers that cause our market to remain robust.
Legislation such as Sarbanes Oxley compliance for publicly traded companies,
HIPPA laws regarding protection and availability of data for healthcare
organizations and the government’s critical infrastructure protection program
for industries that are vital to our economy have resulted in such companies
having the need to invest to protect their networks, the reliability of those
networks, and maintain their ability to perform transactions that are financial
or informational in nature. With respect to these critical infrastructure
systems, the companies focus on physical security, network security,
redundancies for uninterruptible power supply systems, electrical switch gear,
stand-by power generators, heat rejection and cooling systems, fire protection
systems, monitoring and control systems, and security systems, as well as the
physical environment that houses critical operations. We help our customers
plan
for, prevent or mitigate against the consequences of attacks, power outages
and
natural disasters. We provide our services, directly and indirectly, to both
government customers and private sector customers.

TSS
has
obtained a facility clearance from the United States Department of Defense.
This
clearance enables the companies to access and service restricted government
projects. In addition to the facility clearance, TSS has successfully cleared
over one-third of its employees, allowing them individual access to restricted
projects and facilities. Several additional employees are currently in the
process for clearance.
During
the year we have expanded our sales reach by opening offices in New York,
Chicago and Miami. We plan to continue to expand geographically through internal
growth initiatives, as well as through potential acquisitions of specialized
mission-critical engineering, IT services firms (primarily in the United States)
and mission-critical facility management companies.
Our
customers include United States government and homeland defense agencies and
private sector businesses that in some cases are the end user of the facility
or
in other cases, such as our major real estate investment trust, or REIT,
customer, Corporate Office Properties Trust, are providing a facility to a
government end user. We categorize contracts where a government agency is the
ultimate end user of the facility as government-related contracts.
Our
revenues are derived from fees for our professional services as well as revenues
earned under construction management contracts and facility management contracts
with varying terms.
We
believe there are high barriers to entry in our sector for new competitors
due
to our specialized technology service offerings we deliver for our customers,
our top secret clearances, and our turnkey suite of deliverables offered. We
compete for business based upon our reputation, past experience, and our
technical engineering knowledge of mission-critical facilities and their
infrastructure. We are developing and creating long term relationships with
our
customers because of our excellent reputation in the industry and will continue
to create facility management relationships with our customers that we expect
will provide us with steadier revenue streams to improve the value of our
business.
Contract
Backlog
We
believe a strong indicator of our future performance is our backlog of
uncompleted projects in process or recently awarded. Our backlog represents
contracts that have been awarded that we believe will result in revenue in
the
future. We have broken our backlog into the following three categories: (i)
technology consulting, which represents the value of future revenue under
existing contacts for professional services related to consulting and/or
engineering design contracts; (ii) construction management, which represents
the
value of future revenues for construction projects; and (iii) facility
management, which represents the value of future revenues for providing
recurring maintenance services on our customers’ mission-critical facilities,
networks and communication systems.
At
September 30, 2007, our funded backlog was approximately $61.3 million, compared
to approximately $20.6 million at December 31, 2006. We believe that most of
the
backlog at September 30, 2007 will be recognized during over the next twelve
months The following table reflects the value of our backlog in the above three
categories as of September 30, 2007 and as of December 31, 2006, respectively.

Critical
Accounting Policies
Revenue
Recognition
Revenues
from contracts other than time and material contracts are recognized on the
percentage of completion method, measured by the percentage of total costs
incurred to date to estimated total costs for each contract. This method is
used
because management considers cost incurred and costs to complete to be the
best
available measure of progress in the contracts. Revenues from time and materials
contracts are recognized as work is performed.
Contract
costs include all direct materials, subcontract and labor costs and those
indirect costs related to contract performance, such as indirect labor, payroll
taxes and supplies. General and administrative expenses are charged to expense
as incurred. Provisions for estimated losses on uncompleted contracts are made
in the period in which losses are determined.
The
asset, “Costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted
contracts,” represents revenue recognized in excess of amounts billed. The
liability, “Billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings on uncompleted
contracts,” represented billings in excess of revenue recognized. As these
long-term contracts extend over one or more years, revisions in cost and profit
estimates during the course of the contract are reflected in the accounting
period in which the facts which require the revisions are
determined.
Goodwill
and Other Intangible Assets
Management
has preliminarily estimated that the acquisitions of TSS/Vortech, Comm Site
and
Innovative will result in $16.5 million of goodwill of which $14.9 million
is
expected to be deductible for income tax purposes. Additionally, management
has
estimated that approximately $21.2 million of the purchase price is allocable
to
customer-related intangible assets, which include non-contractual customer
relationships, order backlog, and trade name.
Goodwill
arising from the above acquisitions is not amortized but instead will be tested
for impairment at the reporting unit level at least annually in accordance
with
the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”)
No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. Application of the goodwill
impairment test requires significant judgments including estimation of future
cash flows, which is dependent on internal forecasts, estimation of the
long-term rate of growth, the period over which cash flows will occur, and
determination of the weighted average cost of capital. Changes in these
estimates and assumptions could materially affect the determination of fair
value and/or goodwill impairment for each reporting unit.
We
amortize other intangible assets over their estimated useful lives and review
the long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances
indicate that the related carrying amounts may not be recoverable and at least
annually. Determining whether impairment has occurred typically requires various
estimates and assumptions, including determining which cash flows are directly
related to the potentially impaired asset, the useful life over which cash
flows
will occur, their amount and the asset’s residual value, if any. In turn,
measurement of an impairment loss requires a determination of fair value, which
is based on the best information available
Allowance
for Doubtful Accounts
We
make
ongoing estimates relating to the collectibility of our accounts receivable
and
maintain an allowance for estimated losses resulting from the inability of
our
customers to make required payments. Estimates used in determining accounts
receivable allowances are based on specific customer account reviews and
historical experience of credit losses. We also apply judgment including
assessments about changes in economic conditions, concentration of receivables
among customers and industries, recent write-off trends, rates of bankruptcy,
and credit quality of specific customers. Unanticipated changes in the financial
condition of customers, the resolution of various disputes, or significant
changes in the economy could impact the reserves required. The balance of the
allowance for doubtful accounts was $65,000 and $60,000 at September 30, 2007
and December 31, 2006, respectively.
Income
Taxes
We
make
judgments and interpretations based on enacted tax laws, published tax guidance,
as well as estimates of future earnings. These judgments and interpretations
affect the provision for income taxes, deferred tax assets and liabilities
and
the valuation allowance. The deferred tax assets were evaluated under the
guidelines of SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes, and a
determination of the basis of objective factors was made that the net assets
will be realized through future years’ table income. In the event that actual
results differ from these estimates and assessments, additional valuation
allowances may be required.
The
Company recognizes the financial statements benefit
of a tax position only after determining that relevant tax authority would
more
likely than not sustain the position following an audit. For tax positions
meeting the more-likely-than-not threshold, the amount recognized in the
financial statements is the largest benefit that has a grater than 50 percent
likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the relevant tax
authority.

Results
of Operations for the Successor Company
Three
months ended September 30, 2007 compared with the three months ended September
30, 2006
The
following analysis of the Company provides comprehensive information as to
the
results of our operations since our acquisition of TSS/Vortech compared to
our
operations prior to this acquisition when we operated as a special purpose
acquisition company. Following this analysis, we also present a comparison
of
our current results to pro forma results as though the acquisition had occurred
on January 1, 2006.
Revenue
and cost of revenue.
We had
no revenue or cost of revenue during the three months ended September 30, 2006.
For the three months ended September 30, 2007, we had $12.7 million of revenue
and $10.8 million of cost of revenue (including $114,000 of amortization of
order backlog). Our gross margin for the three months ended September 30, 2007
was 15.3% which is in line with our year to date gross margin percentage of
15.1%.
The
majority of our revenue and cost of revenue for the three months ended September
30, 2007 was due to our acquisition of TSS/Vortech during the first quarter
of
2007.
Selling,
general and administrative expenses.
For the
three months ended September 30, 2007, we incurred $4.0 million of selling,
general and administrative expenses related principally to the operations of
TSS/Vortech which were acquired on January 19, 2007. Our selling, general and
administrative expenses were
$130,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2006 related primarily to
the
pursuit of acquisition candidates.
We
granted employees 574,000 shares of common stock which had a grant date value
of
$5.44 per share on January 19, 2007. These shares cliff-vest on January 19,
2010. In addition, during 2007 we granted 156,832 shares of common stock to
our
non-employee directors and three employees with a grant date value range of
$5.43 to $5.99 which vest over the next eighteen months to three years. We
recorded $320,300 of compensation expense related to these shares in the three
months ended September 30, 2007, respectively.
In
February 2007, the Company entered into an agreement with an advisor in which
it
was obligated to pay the advisor a warrant to purchase 125,000 shares
of its common stock. The fair value of these warrants has been determined
using the Black Scholes model and is recognized over the term of the agreement
and included $213,000 of stock-based compensation expense as selling, general
and administrative expense.
Depreciation
and amortization of intangible assets.
During
the three months ended September 30, 2007, we incurred depreciation and
amortization expense of $818,000 related mostly to assets purchased in our
acquisition of TSS/Vortech of which $114,000 is included in cost of revenue
and
$704,000 in operating costs and expenses.
Prior
to
our acquisition of TSS/Vortech, we did not incur any depreciation or
amortization expense.
Interest
income. Our
interest income was $253,000 earned during the three months ended September
30,
2007 in comparison to $445,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2006.
Interest
expense.
For the
three months ended September 30, 2007, interest expense was $149,000. We did
not
incur any interest expense during the three months ended September 30, 2006.
This interest expense is attributable to the debt incurred with the acquisition
of TSS/Vortech which consists of notes payable due to the sellers that have
an
interest rate of 6% per annum.
Income
tax benefit (expense). We
recorded no income tax expense for the three months ended September 30, 2007.
For the three months ended September 30, 2006, we recorded an income tax expense
of $107,000.
20
Nine
months ended September 30, 2007 compared with the nine months ended September
30, 2006
Revenue
and cost of revenue.
We had
no revenue or cost of revenue during the nine months ended September 30, 2006.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2007, we had $32.2 million of revenue
and $27.4 million of cost of revenue (including $317,000
of
amortization of order backlog).
The
increase in revenue and cost of revenue for the nine months ended September
30,
2007 were due primarily to our acquisition of TSS/Vortech during the first
quarter of 2007.
Selling,
general and administrative expenses.
For the
nine months ended September 30, 2007, we incurred $10.0 million of selling,
general and administrative expenses related principally to the operations of
TSS/Vortech. Our selling, general and administrative expenses were
$428,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 related primarily to
the
pursuit of acquisition candidates.
We
granted employees 574,000 shares of common stock which had a grant date value
of
$5.44 per share on January 19, 2007. These shares cliff-vest on January 19,
2010. In addition, during 2007 we granted 156,832 shares of common stock to
our
non-employee directors and three employees with a grant date value range of
$5.43 to $5.99 which vest over the next eighteen months to three years. We
recorded $786,000 of compensation expense related to these shares in the nine
months ended September 30, 2007. In February 2007 the Company entered into
an
agreement with an advisor in which it was obligated to pay them a warrant to
purchase 125,000 shares of our common stock . The fair value of these warrants
has been determined using the Black Scholes model and is recognized over the
term of the agreement and included $213,000 of stock-based compensation expense
as selling, general and administrative expense.
Depreciation
and amortization of intangible assets.
During
the nine months ended September 30, 2007, we incurred depreciation and
amortization expense of $2,181,000 related mostly to assets purchased in our
acquisition of TSS/Vortech of which $317,000 is included in cost of revenue
and
$1,864,000 in operating costs and expenses. Prior to our acquisition of
TSS/Vortech, we did not incur any depreciation or amortization expense.
Interest
income. For
the
nine months ended September 30, 2007, interest income was $893,000 in comparison
to $1,217,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2006. Interest income
decreased on a year to date basis because of the decrease in cash invested
due
to the purchase of TSS/Vortech and the related transaction costs.
Interest
expense.
For the
nine months ended September 30, 2007, interest expense was $416,000. We did
not
incur any interest expense during the nine months ended September 30, 2006.
This
interest expense is attributable to the debt incurred with the acquisition
of
TSS/Vortech which consists of notes payable due to the sellers that have an
interest rate of 6% per annum.
Income
tax benefit (expense). For
the
nine months ended September 30, 2007, we had an income tax benefit of $ 349,000
and for the nine months ended September 30, 2006, income tax expense was
$268,000.
The
amounts above for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 reflect the value
of
a potential loss carryback to prior periods at the effective federal tax rate
of
34% net of a valuation allowance recorded on the deferred tax assets. The
Company’s effective tax rates are based upon the effective tax to be applicable
to the full fiscal year.
Results
of Operations on a Pro Forma Combined Basis for the Successor Company
The
acquisition of TSS/Vortech was our first business acquisition and accordingly,
we do not believe a comparison of the results of operations for the three and
nine months ended September 30, 2007 and September 30, 2006 is very beneficial
to our investors without considering the effect of this acquisition. In order
to
assist investors in better understanding the changes in our business between
the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2007 and September 30, 2006, we are
presenting in the discussion below pro forma results of operations for the
Company and TSS/Vortech for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007
and September 30, 2006 as if the acquisition of TSS/Vortech occurred on January
1, 2007 and January 1, 2006, respectively. We derived the pro forma results
of
operations from (i) the unaudited consolidated financial statements of
TSS/Vortech for the period from December 31, 2006 to January 19, 2007 (the
date
of the acquisition) and the nine months ended September 30, 2006, and (ii)
our
unaudited consolidated financial statements for the nine months ended September
30, 2007 and September 30, 2006. The Company has presented proforma financial
information to reflect only the acquisition of TSS/Vortech. The acquisitions
of
Innovative and Comm Site are not included in the proforma amounts except from
the date of acquisition forward.
21
The
pro
forma results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the results of
operations that may have actually occurred had the acquisition taken place
on
the dates noted, or the future financial position or operating results of us
or
TSS/Vortech. The pro forma adjustments are based upon available information
and
assumptions that we believe are reasonable.
The
tables below include pro-forma information to assist in the analysis of the
results of operations:

The
pro
forma results of operations shown above are not necessarily indicative of the
results of operations that may have actually occurred had the acquisition taken
place on the dates noted, or the future financial position or operating results
of us or TSS/Vortech.
Three
months ended September 30, 2007 compared with the three months ended September
30, 2006
Revenue
and cost of revenue. We
had
$12.7 million of revenues and $10.8 million of cost of revenue earned in the
three months ended September 30, 2007 compared to $12.6 million of revenue
and
$10.3 million of cost of revenue earned in the three months ended September
30,
2006.
The
gross
profit margin was 15.3% for the three months ended September 30, 2007 compared
to 18.7% for the three months ended September 30, 2006.
Gross
profit margin decreased because there are fixed costs included in cost of
revenue which were spread over less revenue. In
addition, there was margin erosion of $0.1 million which occurred on contracts
with our major customer and another $0.1 million on contracts with two other
customers as these contracts were completed.
23
Revenue
from our largest customer (in 2006) was only $657,000 for the three months
ended
September 30, 2007 compared to $8.0 million
for the three months ended September 30, 2006.
The
reduction of revenue from this customer has been replaced with revenue from
new
customers. Approximately 5% of our revenue during the quarter came from this
customer compared to 64% in the three months ended September 30, 2006. Our
strategy is to continue to diversify our customer base and become less reliant
on this single customer.
Selling,
general and administrative expenses. Selling,
general and administrative expenses were $4.0 million for the three months
ended
September 30, 2007 compared to $1.9 million for the three months ended September
30, 2006. The increase as a percentage of revenue increased to 31.2% of revenue
from 14.9% of revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006.
The
increase in these costs is attributable to (i) an increase in the number of
sales and marketing personnel added to the Company to implement our strategic
plan, (ii) the costs associated with being a public company, (iii) non cash
compensation of restricted stock awards given to key employees, and (iv)
increased rent and occupancy costs as we increased our office space for the
technology consulting group and other support personnel and opened offices
in
other locations. These increased additional costs versus the prior year period
ended September 30 are:

Depreciation
and amortization of intangible assets. Depreciation
and amortization of intangible assets expense was $ 704,000 for the three months
ended September 30, 2007 compared to $ 635,000 for the three months ended
September 30, 2006. Our depreciation expense increased $69,000 due to the
increase in property and equipment purchased related to the new office space
leased in the fourth quarter of 2006.
Interest
income. Interest
income was $253,000 for
the
three months ended September 30, 2007 compared to $445,000 for
the
three months ended September 30, 2006. Interest income decreased for the nine
month period because of the decrease in cash invested due to the purchase of
TSS/Vortech and the related transaction costs.
Interest
expense.
Interest
expense was $149,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2007 compared
to
$151,000 for
the
three months ended September 30, 2006.
Nine
months ended September 30, 2007 compared with the nine months ended September
30, 2006
Revenue
and cost of revenue. We
had
$33.6 million of revenue and $28.5 million of cost of revenue earned in the
nine
months ended September 30, 2007 compared to $ 47.3 million of revenue and $39.3
million of cost of revenue earned in the nine months ended September 30, 2006.
The decrease in revenue was primarily due to a reduction in construction
management revenue earned on projects for the nine months ended September 30,
2007 compared to the same nine month period in 2006.
Management
believes that the decline in revenue when comparing the nine months ended
September 30, 2007 to September 30, 2006 results from the fact that the Company
relied heavily in its first three years of operations on a few long-term
contracts from one major customer. Starting in the last quarter of 2005 and
continuing through all of 2006 and 2007 the Company is implementing a strategy
to replace these contracts with new revenue from a broader base of customers
in
both the public and the private sectors. In order to continue a revenue level
equal or higher to the revenue recognized in the first nine months of 2006,
we
needed to replace our backlog at December 31, 2005 of $39.7million with new
sales as the backlog diminished. New backlog additions for the year 2006 were
approximately $41.0 million and our backlog at December 31, 2006 was $20.6
million. As a result, our revenue on a quarter to quarter basis for the first
nine months of 2007 has declined.
In
2006
backlog additions were only $8.0 million in the third quarter and $13.2 million
for the fourth quarter. In 2007 backlog additions were $15.2 million for the
first quarter , $44.1 million in the second quarter and $21.3 million in the
third quarter. . If the Company is able to sustain this increasing trend of
closing new business, our revenue per quarter should increase correspondingly.
We believe backlog takes an average of nine months to be recognized
proportionately as revenue on projects utilizing the percentage of completion
method. Delays in project mobilization may also cause some inconsistencies
in
our revenue recognition from quarter to quarter. Our total backlog at September
30, 2007 was $61.3million and increased again on a quarterly basis.
24
The
cost
of revenues decreased in relation to our reduction in revenue for the nine
months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006.
Cost
of
revenue decreased to $28.5million with a gross profit margin of 15.1% for the
nine months ended September 30, 2007 compared to $39.3million with a gross
profit margin of 17.0% for the nine months ended September 30,
2006.
Gross
profit margin decreased because there are fixed costs included in cost of
revenue which were spread over less revenue. In
addition, there was margin erosion of $0.5 million which occurred on contracts
with our major customer and another $0.1 million on contracts with two other
customers as these contracts were completed.
Revenue
from our largest customer for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 was
$6.7
million compared to $31.1 million for the nine months ended September 30,
2006.
The
reduction of revenue from this customer has been replaced with revenue from
new
customers. Approximately 21% and 66% of our revenue came from this customer
in
the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. Our strategy
is
to continue to diversify our customer base and become less reliant on this
single customer.
Selling,
general and administrative expenses. Selling,
general and administrative expenses were $10.6 million for the nine months
ended
September 30, 2007 compared to $5.4 million for the nine months ended September
30, 2006. The increase as a percentage of revenue to 31.5% from 11.0% of revenue
for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006.
The
increase in these costs is attributable to (i) an increase in the number of
sales and marketing personnel added to the Company to implement our strategic
plan, (ii) the costs associated with being a public company, (iii) non cash
compensation of restricted stock awards given to key employees, (iv) increased
rent and occupancy costs as we increased our office space for the technology
consulting group and other support personnel and opened offices in other
locations, and (v) marketing expenses to get into the private industry
marketplace. These increased additional costs versus the prior year period
ended
September 30 are:

Depreciation
and amortization of intangible assets. Depreciation
and amortization of intangible assets expense was $ 1,898,000 for the nine
months ended September 30, 2007 compared to $1,769,000 for the nine months
ended
September 30, 2006. Our depreciation expense increased $129,000 due to the
increase in property and equipment purchased related to the new office space
leased in the fourth quarter of 2006.
Interest
income. For
the
nine months ended September 30, 2007, interest income was $897,000 compared
to $ 1,217,000 for
nine
months ended September 30, 2006. Interest income decreased for the nine month
period because of the decrease in cash invested due to the purchase of
TSS/Vortech and the related transaction costs.

Financial
Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources
Financial
Condition
Total
assets increased $23.1 million to $69.1 million as of September 30, 2007
compared to $46.0 million as of December 31, 2006, due to our acquisition of
TSS/Vortech during the first quarter of 2007. At September 30, 2007, we no
longer had $44.7 million in short term investments, as we did at December 31,
2006 as a portion of those funds were used to acquire TSS/Vortech and the
remainder was available to us and recorded as cash. At September 30, 2007 we
had
$32.6 million
in current assets of which $17.9 million
was cash, $ 9.0 million in contract accounts receivable and $5.6 million in
other current assets.
25
Our
total
liabilities increased to $21.3 million as of September 30, 2007 from $1.5
million as of December 31, 2006, primarily due to the acquisition noted above.
Accordingly our current liabilities increased to $ 13.6 million at September
30,
2007 from $1.5 million at December 31, 2006.
Liquidity
and Capital Resources
During the
nine
months ended September 30, 2007 net cash used in operating activities for the
period was $5.6 million. Cash used by operating activities is primarily driven
by the net loss adjusted for working capital changes which were primarily
changes in accounts receivable, other current assets, accounts payable and
work
in process adjustments.
Net
cash
provided by investing activities was $ 32.0 million
for the nine months ended September 30, 2007. During the nine months ended
September 30, 2007, we had $44.7 million from the sale of short-term securities,
while we invested $11.3 million toward the purchase of TSS/Vortech and
Innovative and used $ 1.4 million used for deferred acquisition costs and fixed
assets.
Net
cash
used by financing activities was $8.4 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 2007. We used $6.4 million to repurchase shares of our common
stock associated with the buyout of the dissenting shareholders and the
previously announced share repurchase program and we used $2.1 million to retire
debt of which $2.0 million was used to retire the promissory note due to the
Chief Executive Officer of which the proceeds were used to purchase the
Company’s common stock and warrants pursuant to a 10b5-1 Plan.
We
expect
to retain future earnings if any for use in possible expansion of our business
and do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future.
Historically,
we have funded our business activities with cash flow from operations and
borrowings under credit facilities.
Our
primary liquidity needs are to finance the costs of operations, acquire capital
assets and to make selective strategic acquisitions. We expect to meet our
short-term requirements through funds generated from operations. We also intend
on pursuing a credit facility in the future. Our strategic acquisition
cash requirements will also be funded by cash generated from operations and
the
aforementioned credit facility.
Off
Balance Sheet Arrangements
As
of the
nine months ended September 30, 2007, we do not have any off balance sheet
arrangements.
Recent
Accounting Pronouncements.
In
September 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No.
157 (SFAS No. 157), Fair Value Measurements. SFAS No. 157 provides a new
single authoritative definition of fair value and enhanced guidance for
measuring the fair value of assets and liabilities. It requires additional
disclosures related to the extent to which companies measure assets and
liabilities at fair value, the information used to measure fair value, and
the
effect of fair value measurements on earnings. SFAS No. 157 is effective
for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within
those fiscal years. We are currently evaluating what effect, if any, the
adoption of SFAS No. 157 will have on our financial position, results of
operations, or cash flows.
In
February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The
Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities — Including an
amendment of FASB Statement No. 115 (SFAS
No.
159). SFAS No. 159 permits an entity, at specified election dates, to
choose to measure certain financial instruments and other items at fair value.
The objective of SFAS No. 159 is to provide entities with the opportunity to
mitigate volatility in reported earnings caused by measuring related assets
and
liabilities differently, without having to apply complex hedge accounting
provisions. SFAS No. 159 is effective for accounting periods beginning
after November 15, 2007. The Company will adopt SFAS No. 159 for the fiscal
year
beginning January 1, 2008 and is currently assessing the impact of adopting
SFAS
No. 159 on the consolidated financial statements.

3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market
Risk.
Refer
to
our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006 for a
complete discussion of our market risk. There have been no material changes
to
the market risk information included in the Annual Report 10-K for the year
December 31, 2006.
Evaluation
of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our
management performed an evaluation under the supervision and with the
participation of our Chief Executive Officer (Principal Executive Officer)
and
Chief Financial Officer (Principal Financial Officer) of the effectiveness
of
our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) or
15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of September
30, 2007. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and
Chief
Financial Officer have
concluded that as of September 30, 2007, our disclosure controls and procedures
were ineffective.
Changes
in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Through
December 31, 2006, we had no operations, no full-time personnel and very few
personnel of any kind. Our activities from inception in late 2005 and into
2006
focused on completing our initial public offering, identifying acquisition
candidates and then completing the acquisition of TSS/Vortech. As
of
December 31, 2006, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and
with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer
of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our “disclosure controls and
procedures,” as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Based upon
that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have
concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at that
time for the purpose of ensuring that the information required to be disclosed
in our reports filed with the SEC under the Exchange Act is (1) recorded,
processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the
SEC’s rules and forms and (2) is accumulated and communicated to our management,
including the Chief Executive Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions
regarding required disclosure.
In
January 2007 we acquired TSS/Vortech and re-evaluated our internal control
process during the first quarter of 2007. As a result of this re-evaluation,
we
have determined that our internal control over financial reporting is
ineffective. We
had
neither the resources, nor the personnel, to provide for an adequate internal
control environment. The following material weaknesses in our internal control
over financial reporting were noted at September
30, 2007:
(i) we
did not have the ability to segregate duties; (ii) we lacked the formal
documentation of policies and procedures that were in place; and (iii) we lacked
adequate financial personnel.
We
have
begun to address the internal control weaknesses summarized above beginning
in
the first quarter of 2007, with the goal of eliminating such deficiencies by
the
end of 2007. We
are
working with a certified public accounting firm to serve as our internal
auditors to further enhance our internal control environment and a Chief
Financial Officer has been with the Company since August 20, 2007. The
acquisitions of TSS/Vortech will require the development of more robust
disclosure controls and procedures, which we are currently developing.
Management
will continue to monitor, evaluate and test the operating effectiveness of
these
controls during the remainder of 2007.
There
were no other changes in our internal control over financial reporting for
the
nine months ended Septermber 30, 2007 that have materially affected, or are
reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial
reporting.
