NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 2011 AND DECEMBER 31, 2010
1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Nature of Operations
View Systems, Inc. (the “Company”) designs and develops computer software and hardware used in conjunction with surveillance capabilities. The technology utilizes the compression and decompression of digital inputs. In March 2002, the Company acquired Milestone Technology, Inc., which has developed a concealed weapons detection portal. In July 2009, the Company acquired FibreXpress, Inc., which is a company that specializes in equipment and components for the fiber optic and communication cable industries.
Basis of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, Milestone Technology, Inc. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Use of Estimates
Management uses estimates and assumptions in preparing financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Those estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and the reported revenues and expenses. Actual results could differ from the estimates that were used.
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable consists of amounts due from customers. Management periodically reviews the open accounts and makes a determination as to the ultimate collectability of each account. Once it is determined that collection is in doubt the account is written off as a bad debt. In order to provide for accounts that may become uncollectible in the future, the Company has established an allowance for doubtful accounts. The balance of the allowance for doubtful accounts is based on management’s judgment and the Company’s prior experience with managing accounts receivable.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 2011 AND DECEMBER 31, 2010
1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Revenue Recognition
The Company has three main products, namely the concealed weapons detection system, the visual first responder system and the Viewmaxx digital video system. In all cases revenue is considered earned when the product is shipped to the customer. The concealed weapons system and the digital video system each require installation and training. The customer can engage us for installation and training, which is a revenue source separate and apart from the sale of the product. In those cases revenue is recognized at the completion of the installation and training. However, the customer can also self-install or can engage another firm to provide installation and training. Each product has an unconditional 30 day warranty, during which time the product can be returned for a complete refund. Prior to the issuance of financial statements management reviews any returns subsequent to the end of the accounting period which are from sales recognized during the accounting period, and makes appropriate adjustments as necessary. Product prices are fixed or determinable and products are only shipped when collectability is reasonably assured.
During 2009 the Company began to engage in the business of installing fiber optics lines in multi-family housing. The fiber optics company will engage us to install lines in various configurations or multiples of individual units. Revenue is recognized at the completion of a certain number of units and after the fiber optics company has approved the installation as complete.
Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined by the last-in-first-out method (LIFO). All inventory as of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 consisted of unassembled parts of products.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment is recorded at cost and depreciated over their useful lives, using the straight-line and accelerated depreciation methods. Upon sale or retirement, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are eliminated from the respective accounts, and the resulting gain or loss is included in the results of operations. The useful lives of property and equipment for purposes of computing depreciation are as follows:
Equipment | 5-7 years |
Software tools | 3 years |
Repairs and maintenance charges which do not increase the useful lives of assets are charged to operations as incurred. Depreciation expense for the periods ended September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 amounted to $17,100 and $23,141, respectively.

1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Intangible Assets – Licenses and Intellectual Property
In connection with the acquisition on Milestone, the Company received, among other things, various licenses to use software that had been developed by INEEL (Idaho National Engineering and Environmental Laboratory). In addition to the right to use this software, the Company also acquired, as a part of the Milestone purchase, various technical manuals, drawings, plans for hardware design and systems configuration and corporate expertise which, in total, comprised the intellectual property which is a significant element of the current secure scan system. Milestone transferred the licenses to View Systems, Inc., and in November 2003, two separate licenses were signed in the name of View Systems with Bechtel BWXT Idaho, LLC (BBWI).
BBWI is the management and operating contractor of the INEEL under its Contract No. DE-AC07-99ID13727 (“M&O Contract”) and has the authorization, right and ability to grant the license of the Agreement. The licenses allow View Systems to commercially develop, manufacture, use, sell and distribute processes and products embodying the U.S. Patent No. 6.150.810 “Method for Detecting the Presence of a Ferromagnetic Object Using Maximum and Minimum Magnetic Field Data”, and U.S. Patent Application S/N 10/623,372, “Communication Systems, Camera Devices, and Communication Methods”.
The valuation of the intellectual property in total consists of the cost of acquiring Milestone, that is, the difference of the cost paid for the entity vs. the value of the underlying assets and liabilities which was determined to be $1,626,854. The cost is being amortized on a straight line basis over the remaining useful lives of the underlying patents, which at the date of the purchase was 15.5 years. Amortization expense for the periods ended September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 was $78,720 and $104,958, respectively. Consistent with SFAS No. 142, the intellectual property was also analyzed to determine if any impairment existed at September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010. It was determined to be not impaired. The Company has fundamentally advanced the technology under which these licenses operate and it is in the process of filing for its own provisional patents.
Income Taxes
Deferred income taxes are recorded under the assets and liability method whereby deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences, measured by enacted tax rates, attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss carry forwards. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period the rate change becomes effective. Valuation allowances are recorded for deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that such deferred tax assets will not be realized.
Research and Development
Research and development costs are expensed as incurred.
Advertising
Advertising costs are charged to operations as incurred. Advertising costs for the periods ended September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 were $2,914 and $25,862.
.
Nonmonetary Transactions
Nonmonetary transactions are accounted for in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 29, “Accounting for Nonmonetary Transactions” which requires the transfer or distribution of a nonmonetary asset or liability to be based generally, on the fair value of the asset or liability that is received or surrendered, whichever is more clearly evident.

Financial Instruments
For most financial instruments, including cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accruals, management believes that the carrying amount approximates fair value, as the majority of these instruments are short-term in nature.
Net Loss Per Common Share
Basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss available to common stockholder by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares and dilutive potential common share equivalents then outstanding. Potential common shares consist of shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options and warrants in addition to shares that may be issued in the event that convertible debt is exchanged for shares of common stock. The calculation of the net loss per share available to common stockholders for the periods ended September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 does not include potential shares of common stock equivalents, as their impact would be antidilutive.

2. GOING CONCERN
The Company has incurred and continues to incur, losses from operations. For the periods ended September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the Company incurred net losses of $368,329 and $513,353, respectively. In addition, certain notes payable have come due and the note holders are demanding payment.
Management is very actively working to cure these situations. It has implemented major plans to for the future growth and development of the Company. Management is in the process of renegotiating more favorable repayment terms on the notes payable and the Company anticipates that these negotiations will result in extended payment plans. In addition, during 2011 and 2010, the Company implemented marketing and information strategies to increase public awareness of its products and thereby sales. It has established new international markets which it believes will be the source for sales growth in the very near future. It also was able to reduce the per-unit cost of manufacturing its products. Additionally, the Company has increased the efficiency of its processes and focused its development efforts on products that appear to have greater sales potential.
Historically, the Company has financed its operations primarily through private financing; however, sales revenue during 2011 and 2010 and decreases in expenses during 2011 and 2010 made a significant contribution to working capital. It is management’s intention to finance operations during the remainder of 2011 primarily through increased sales although there will still be a need for additional equity financing. In addition, management is actively seeking out mergers and acquisitions which would be beneficial to the future growth of the Company. There can be no assurance, however, that this financing will be successful and the Company may be required to further reduce expenses and scale back operations.

3. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) periodically issues new accounting standards in a continuing effort to improve standards of financial accounting and reporting. The Company has reviewed the recently issued pronouncements and concluded that there are no new accounting standards are applicable to the Company.
4. BUSINESS COMBINATION
The Company purchased 100% of the common stock of Milestone Technology, Inc., effective March 25, 2002. The purchase was accomplished in two transactions. The Company acquired 6% of Milestone in December 2001 in exchange for 500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. In March 2002, the Company acquired the remaining 94% of Milestone for 3,300,000 share of the Company’s common stock. Based on the market value of the Company’s common stock ($0.55 per share in December and $0.31 per share in March) the total cost of the acquisition was $1,298,000.
Milestone Technology, Inc. is a developer of concealed weapons detections systems. Its primary product is a walk-through detector that uses advanced magnetic technology to accurately pinpoint the location, size, and numbers of concealed weapons.
5. DUE FROM AFFILIATED ENTITIES
The Company advanced non-interest bearing funds of $147,507 as of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 to a related corporation, The Fight Zone, Inc., (formerly Geoscopix, Inc.), which at one time was controlled by the Chief Executive Officer of the Company. During 2010 that control was lost due to the restructuring of The Fight Zone, Inc. During periods prior to the emergence of The Fight Zone, Inc. that company, which was then known as Geoscopix, Inc. had been developing a three dimensionally lensed camera system which was titled as The Gator. The Gator had promising potential industrial applications particularly in the construction industry.
The Fight Zone, Inc. is no longer capable of repaying the debt to the Company in cash however, in settlement of the debt; it has deeded the intellectual property known as The Gator to View Systems, Inc. View Systems, Inc. plans to continue the development of the product and to bring it to market as soon as possible. Accordingly the asset which was formerly reflected as the receivable from The Fight Zone, Inc. has been replaced and reclassified as intellectual property.

Stock Options and Warrants
Our 1999 Employee Stock Option Plan terminated automatically pursuant to the terms of its agreement on March 1, 2009. Footnote 10 in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009 should have reported that 1,346 stock options (adjusted for the stock split in 2008) were expired as of March 1, 2009. Instead, the stock option table in Footnote 10 incorrectly reported these options as being outstanding at December 31, 2009.
On April 2, 2010, the Company adopted its 2010 Equity Incentive Plan, which authorized, among other forms of incentives, the issuance of stock options. Reserved for equity issuances under the 2010 Equity Incentive Plan are 50,000,000 shares of our common stock. No equity issuances have been made from the 2010 Equity Incentive Plan. Stock options, which may be tax qualified and non-qualified, are exercisable for a period of up to ten years at prices at or above market prices as established on the date of the grant.
11. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
During the periods reflected on this report certain shareholders made cash advances to the Company to help with short-term working capital needs. The total additions to loans from shareholders with unstructured payment plans amounted to $6,934 during 2010 and $50,331 during the nine months ended September 30, 2011. The total balance due on unstructured loans from shareholders amount to $177,792 at September 30, 2011 and $127,461 at December 31, 2010. Loans from stockholders made with repayment terms are described in Note 6 above.
12. CORRECTION FOR DUPLICATIVE STOCK ISSUANCE
On January 13, 2010, we inadvertently issued a total of 10,000,000 shares of common stock to two of our directors who had previously been issued a total of 10,000,000 shares of common stock in December 2009. The duplicative issuance did not affect the directors’ reporting of their actual stock holdings. However, the duplicative stock issuance was recorded in our financial statements and reported on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2010. We have reversed the expense item attributed to the duplicative stock issuance which results in a decrease in our expenses of $300,000.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
EXECUTIVE OVERVIEW
The following analysis of our consolidated financial condition and results of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and other information presented elsewhere in this quarterly report.
Overview
Management believes that heightened attention to personal threats, potential large scale destruction and theft of property in the United States along with spending by the United States government on Homeland Security will continue to drive growth in the market for security products.
Our current product lines are related to visual surveillance, intrusion detection and physical security. In February 2010 we introduced a new product that we call the MINI (Mobile Intelligent Network Informer). We have received multiple inquires about the need for such a device during 2008 and have invested engineering resources to create a working device. In the fall of 2009 we discovered a device in China that fit our specifications closely so we decided to enter the market with that device instead of continuing to spend our own engineering dollars. We commenced Internet sales efforts of the MINI as a distributor in February 2010. We had a net of seventeen sales in 2010. We did not have any sales during the first nine months of fiscal year 2011, which we believe resulted from our lack of available funding for marketing efforts. However, we generated revenues during the nine month period ended September 30, 2011 of $576,735, which consisted of Secure Scan, Viewmass, TM Series and service, warranty and training.
During 2009, the Company secured significant international sales opportunities for ViewScan in China and the Middle East through our respective local agents. However, no sales have occurred in China in 2010, and we have been unable to fill orders from the Middle East due to personnel issues in our product assembly locations. We will continue to work closely with our overseas agents to assist them in securing new orders and to resolve our product assembly issues. In addition we will seek new agents for as yet untapped markets for ViewScan and our range of security technologies.
We have been approached by certain entities that would make use of our public structure and/or our net tax loss carry-forward of approximately $21,856,026. However, it is our intention to continue to execute our current business plan until such time, if ever, that we conclude that an acquisition or merger will lead to greater value for our principals and shareholders. We have not entered into definite agreements or decisions about any business combination opportunities. However, we continue to explore potential merger and acquisition options.
Fiber optic contract installations peaked for 2010 in the summer months.
Our strategy for 2011 for ViewScan is to extend our sales and service provisions. To increase sales we offer demonstrations of our products to potential customers in specific geographical areas and at region - specific trade shows, such as sheriff’s conventions, court administrators’ meetings, civil support team, state police and dealer shows. When a demonstration results in a sale of one of our products, then we attempt to expand that market by contacting other potential customers in the area, such as, correctional facilities, courthouses and other municipal buildings.
In the short term, management plans to raise funds through sales of our common stock for fulfillment (manufacturing, packaging and shipment), which will set the stage for future orders becoming self funding. Then the next phase of our business plan will be to raise additional funds through common stock offerings to provide working capital to finance several acquisitions and the integration of new technologies and businesses. We also intend to continue to strengthen our balance sheet by paying off debt either through exchange of equity for cancellation of debt obligations or the payment of debt obligations with cash.
18
When possible we have conserved our cash by paying employees, consultants, and independent contractors with our common stock. As of March 2010, our outstanding equity compensation and equity incentive plans established in 1999 and 2000 had expired by their terms. We implemented two new plans in April and June 2010, respectively. On April 2, 2010, by majority shareholder consent, we adopted our 2010 Equity Incentive Plan. Reserved for equity issuances under the Equity Incentive Plan are 50,000,000 shares of our common stock. On June 1, 2010, by majority shareholder consent, we adopted our 2010 Service Provider Stock Compensation Plan. Reserved for equity issuances under the Service Provider Stock Compensation Plan are 50,000,000 shares of our common stock. On July 21, 2010, we registered the common stock issuable under the 2010 Equity Incentive Plan and the 2010 Service Provider Stock Compensation Plan. A total of 100,000,000 shares are reserved for issuances under the two plans.
Correction to Previously Reported Shares Outstanding and Expenses
Our financial statements for the quarter ended March 31, 2010 and our reporting of shares outstanding on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2010 overstated our expenses from stock issuance by $300,000 and reported 10,000,000 more shares outstanding than was actually the case. The error was caused by a duplicitous January 13, 2010 instruction to our transfer agent to issue shares that had been issued in December 2009. The error did not affect the beneficial ownership reporting by shareholders. We discovered the error and made an adjustment to our financial statements for the quarter ended March 31, 2010 by reversing the expense item attributed to the duplicative stock issuance which resulted in a decrease in our expenses of $300,000 and a corresponding increase in revenue. Because the adjustment was picked up in our report for the quarter ended June 30, 2010, we have presented our consolidated statements of operations and cash flows, which compare the periods ended June 30, 2011 with June 30, 2010, using the June 30, 2010 information without adjustment and as reported in our Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2010.
Form S-1 Registration Statement Declared Effective
On October 7, 2010, we filed a registration statement on Form S-1 to register 50,000,000 shares of our common stock with the hope of raising up to $1 million. The Form S-1 was declared effective by the U.S. Securities & Exchange Commission on March 25, 2011. The stated primary purposes of the offering are to obtain additional capital to: (1) facilitate product fulfillment (manufacturing, packaging and shipment), which we anticipate will enable future orders to be self funding; (2) provide working capital to finance corporate acquisitions and the integration of new technologies; and (3) retire debt through cash payment or the exchange of debt obligations with payment in registered Common Stock. The registration statement also registered for resale 1,500,000 shares of restricted common stock issued to one of our consultants in exchange for forgiveness of debt.
Products and Services
Our current principal products and services include:
1. ViewScan Concealed Weapons Detection System
ViewScan, which is also sold under the name “Secure Scan”, is a walk-through concealed weapons detector which uses data sensing technology to accurately pinpoint the location, size and number of concealed weapons. This walk-through portal is controlled by a master processing board and a personal computer based unit which receives magnetic and video information and combines it in a manner that allows the suspected location of the weapon to be stored electronically and referenced. Because ViewScan does not produce a graphic anatomical display of a scanned person, the Company does not believe that ViewScan is susceptible to privacy concerns raised about certain personnel scanners produced by other companies.
ViewScan products are distributed in three basic configurations; stand-alone units, portable units and integrated door systems.
While electromagnetic induction systems of the type described above have been used for decades as concealed weapons detection systems, they are not without their problems. For example, such electromagnetic induction systems are generally sensitive to the overall size, i.e., surface area of the object, including its mass. Consequently, small, compact, but massive objects, such as a small pistol, may not produce a "signature" that is significantly larger than the signature produced by a light weight object of the same or greater size, such as a cell phone or compact camera. Another problem associated with electromagnetic induction systems is related to the fact that electromagnetic systems are sensitive to electrically conductive objects, regardless of whether they are magnetic or non-magnetic. That is, electromagnetic systems tend to detect non-magnetic objects, such as pocket change, just as easily as magnetic objects, such as weapons. Consequently, electromagnetic systems tend to be prone to false alarms. In many circumstances, such false alarms need to be resolved by scanning the suspect with a hand-held detector in order to confirm or deny the presence of a dangerous weapon.
19
ViewScan is designed to overcome the traditional shortcomings of electromagnetic induction scanners. The ViewScan portal uses an array of advanced magnetic sensors, each with internal digital signal processors. The sensors communicate with the control unit's software which spatially places identified magnetic anomalies and visually places the location of the potential threat object with a red dot that is superimposed over a real time snapshot image of the person walking through the portal. Along with the snapshot, a graph displays the sensor data which automatically scales the signal strength of the individual sensors and cross-references them to the video image. All of this information is brought together on a video screen that displays the image of the person, the location of the weapon(s) and the size of the weapon(s), depending on the intensity of the magnetic signature. The visual image allows the operator to determine what the object is without the need to conduct a personal search to locate the object and look at it.
The ViewScan system operates faster than ordinary metal detectors and can scan as high as 1,200 persons per hour. Since the ViewScan technology does not use transmitters to produce electromagnetic induction, it does not pose a problem for pacemakers. The ViewSan self calibrates and does not need operator intervention or special calibration tools.
In 2004 we introduced the ViewScan product to the venue and stadium market. In February 2005 we tested the ViewScan at the pre-game venues of the Super Bowl football game in Jacksonville, Florida. During that installation, the portal scanned up to 3,000 to 4,000 people and at various times throughput ranged from approximately 600 to 1,200 persons per hour.
During 2005 we contracted with the University of Northern Florida to design new sensor boards for the ViewScan product which has allowed us to reduce the installed sensor cost by a factor of four. The new lower costs allow us to offer price points to the market which compete directly with traditional metal detectors.
In February 2006 we demonstrated a ViewScan product with a precision optical biometric fingerprint terminal. As expected, the demand for biometric interfaces has increased significantly. In addition to verifying that an individual is not carrying guns, knives and sometimes cameras, the units can perform multi-modal double and triple identity checks, including: fingerprint, facial, iris, drivers license and employee identification card verification.
Today we sell these units for an average retail price of approximately $9,000 with a one year extended warranty. We feel the new reduced price points and enhanced interface abilities will allow us to be more competitive, along with the advantages of three to four times the throughput rate, non-contact imaging and permanent visual storage, and a log of all individuals scanned. We have been making additional cost reductions through economies of scale and larger scale integration by taking advantage of ongoing computer component improvements.
2. Multi-Mission Mobil Video
The Multi-Mission Mobil Video (MMV) is a lightweight, wireless camera system housed in a tough, waterproof body. The camera system sends back real-time images to a computer or video monitor at the command post located outside the exclusion zone or containment area. The MMV is able to transmit high quality video in the most difficult environments. The image is received from the MMV and displayed on a monitor and can be easily recorded using a common camcorder or VCR with video input. The camera can be completely submerged for fast and easy decontamination.
The MMV also uses an Extension Link which is a separate transmitter and receiving system that increases the operating range of the MMV. The Extension Link has field-selectable channels to avoid interference at longer distances. We have also incorporated a video encryption feature that allows first responders to transmit on-scene video to the command post without the data being intercepted by unwanted parties.
The complete MMV is fully deployed by one person in a stand alone configuration in less than 10 minutes. The system is battery operated and can operate for eight continuous hours using one set of spare camera batteries. We sell this base product for approximately $9,000 retail, but the cost can be as high as $18,500 depending on additional special features such as the extension link and encryption capabilities.
This new product allows hands-free operation of the unit because it allows the person to wear the unit with a helmet mounted monocle.
20
3. ViewMaxx Digital Video System
ViewMaxx is a high-resolution, digital video recording and real-time monitoring system. This system can be scaled to meet a specific customer's needs by using anywhere from one camera up to 32 surveillance cameras per each ViewMaxx unit. The system uses a video capture card recording which translates closed-circuit television analog video data (a format normally used by broadcasters for national television programs) to a computer readable digital format to be stored on direct access digital disk devices rather than the conventional television format of video tape.
ViewMaxx offers programmable recording features that can eliminate the unnecessary storage of non-critical image data. This ability allows the user to utilize the digital disk storage more efficiently. The ViewMaxx system can be programmed to satisfy each customer's special requirements, be it coverage which is continuous, or only when events are detected. For example, it can be programmed to begin recording when motion is detected in a surveillance area, or a smaller field of interest within the surveillance area, and can be programmed to notify the user with an alarm or message.
Viewing of the stored digital images can be performed locally on the computer's video display unit or remotely through the customer's existing telecom systems or data network. It also uses a multi-mode search tool to quickly play back files with simple point and click operations. The search mode parameters can be set according to a specific monitoring need, such as: certain times of day, selected areas of interest in the field of view or breaches of limit areas. These features and abilities avoid the need to review an entire, or many, VCR tapes for a critical event.
Our ViewMaxx products include the following features:
●
|
Use any and all forms of telecommunications, such as standard telephone lines;
|
●
|
Video can be monitored 24 hours a day by a security monitoring center;
|
●
|

|
●
|
The system may trigger programmed responses to events detected in a surveillance area, such as break-ins or other unauthorized breaches of the secured area;
|
●
|
Cameras can be concealed in ordinary home devices such as smoke detectors;

5. The MINI
The MINI (Mobile Intelligent Network Informer) is a portable, wireless watchdog communication device that checks for intrusion into uninhabited areas such as foreclosed houses, storage spaces and vacation homes. The MINI senses motion and sends text messages to a user's cell phone. Property and remote assets may be guarded by this innovative device that requires no plug-in electricity, no physical phone line and no monitoring service. The MINI runs on batteries and one configuration of the system can even send a photo of the intruder to the user's cell phone. Camera settings can be controlled and changed via SMS commands.
We license the MINI from its manufacturer and act as a distributor. We established a dedicated e-commerce platform for the direct sale of this innovative product, which went online in February 2010. We are marketing the MINI to large potential users, such as real property managers, as well as retail customers through the www.minicamsim.com website. We have had non-material amounts of revenue from MINI sales thus far, which we attribute to a lack of advertising funds and market awareness.
6. Network Services
View Systems Inc. Network Services group supplies integrated electronic security and control systems for commercial and industrial applications throughout the Mid Atlantic area.
The Network Services group specializes in the installation of complex electronic control systems which typically include access control, parking and vehicular control, closed circuit television surveillance, audio intercommunication, and proprietary alarm monitoring systems in commercial and multi-tenant residential applications. The Network Service's true specialty is the integration of two or more of these subsystems into one complete and easy to operate package with all subsystems being highly integrated and easy to manage.
The installation of fiber optic backbones is a primary focus of Network Services. Since March 2009 we have been a subcontractor of MasTec North America, Inc. for the installation of fiber optic cable networks. Using a credit line provided by Lafayette Commercial Bank, in 2009 we spent more than $200,000 to purchase tools and equipment to enhance our fiber optic installation capability. Payment (less a 10% holdback) for our services is expected at 45 days after completion of each project.
We will continue to work with MasTec North America, Inc. on the installation of fiber cable infrastructure, as well as seek video surveillance and access control system design, installation, maintenance and support contracts in our geographical areas of proximity and strength.
7. FiberXpress, Inc.
On July 24, 2009 we entered into an asset purchase agreement to acquire FiberXpress, Inc., a company that sells specialist data network related products through its Internet web site. The transaction closed on September 15, 2009 with an exchange of stock and the hiring of William Paul Price. The acquisition has not been material to our financial statements. The FiberXpress acquisition has not resulted in meaningful sales, and we are looking for suitable options.
8. Visisys Ltd .
The status of View Systems’ partnership with Visisys is uncertain. There were no sales in either 2011 or 2010 from this partnership, and we may terminate the relationship in the coming months.

* Please see our discussion of the effect of a reversal of an expense item attributed to duplicative stock issuances , which resulted in a decrease in expenses of $300,000 during the three-month period ended March 31, 2010 as disclosed in the financial information in footnote 12 entitled “Correction to Previously Reported Shares Outstanding and Expenses.” .
Nine Month Period Ended September 30, 2011 Compared to Nine Month Period Ended September 30, 2010.
Our net loss for the nine month period ended September 30, 2011 was ($368,329) compared to a net loss of ($294,065) during the nine month period ended September 30, 2010 (an increase in net loss of $74,264). We generated net revenues of $576,735 during the nine month period ended September 30, 2011 compared to $722,042 during the nine month period ended September 30, 2010 (a decrease in net revenue of $145,307). Revenue is considered earned when the product is shipped to the customer. The concealed weapons system and the digital video system each require installation and training. Training is a revenue source separate and apart from the sale of the product. In those cases revenue is recognized at the completion of the installation and training.
We have experienced a decrease in sales of our products which resulted in decreased revenues for the nine month period ended September 30, 2011 compared to the nine month period ended September 30, 2010. We believe the decreased revenue is the result of the domestic and worldwide down turn of the economy. We also believe that the decreased revenue is the result of inadequate funding for marketing expenses. We have inquiries for quotes from various countries, including Turkey, Lebanon and Georgia. Management anticipates that increases in revenues may resume if these sales and marketing channels are successfully developed. We intend to continue to establish local sales and service offices in geographic areas where we have already completed sales.
Cost of goods sold increased during the nine month period ended September 30, 2011 to $198,023 from $195,038 incurred during the nine month period ended September 30, 2010, resulting in a gross profit of $378,712 for the nine month period ended September 30, 2011 compared to a gross profit of $527,004 for the nine month period ended September 30, 2010. During the nine month period ended September 30, 2011, the trend of increasing cost of goods sold was due to the increase in associated costs related to the components of our security-related products, which is based on general overal economic factors. We believe that this trend is temporary. We believe that our products will resume their popularity when government budgets have been reinstated. Going forward, our efforts and our attention are focused on future fiber (FIOS) data installation work and other opportunities in the video surveillance market.
Also, product shipments may require more lead-time and may be delayed for a variety of reasons beyond our control, including additional time necessary to conduct product inspections prior to shipping, design or specification changes by the customer, the customer's need to prepare an installation site, and delays caused by other contractors on the project. We have a back log because we do not hold unsold units in inventory.
23
The increase of margins from quarter to quarter was primarily the result of decreased costs and due to an increase in volume of units shipped. Management realizes that the relative margins of each product line will increase with higher volume and decrease with lower volume.
Inflation has not been a significant factor in either our price points nor in the cost of products sold. The sales cycles are long and cross budget and annual review boundaries. The approval for purchase process is affected by both federal funds being available and state decisions interacting with local needs and review of safety and homeland security committees comprised of sheriffs, police, fire and SWAT teams. We have not found elasticity in price affecting decision for purchase or approval.
During the nine month period ended September 30, 2011, we incurred operating expenses of $575,968 compared to $816,300 incurred during the nine month ended September 30, 2010 (a decrease of $240.332). These operating expenses incurred during the nine month period ended September 30, 2011 consisted of: (i) business development of $70,197 (2010: $89,190); (ii) general and administrative of $248,061 (2010: $354,783); (iii) professional fees of $73,610 (2010: $188,273); and (iv) salaries and benefits of $184,100 (2010: $184,054).
Operating expenses incurred during the nine month period ended September 30, 2011 compared to the nine month period ended September 30, 2010 decreased primarily due to the decrease in general and administrative expenses of $106,722, the decrease in professional fees of $114,663, and the decrease in business development expenses of $18,893. The decrease in business development, professional fees and general and administrative relates primarily to decrease in the general scope of our business operations. General and administrative expenses generally include corporate overhead, financial and administrative contracted services, marketing, and consulting costs.
Our net operating loss during the nine month period ended September 30, 2011 was ($197,256) compared to a net operating loss of ($289,296) during the nine month period ended September 30, 2010.
During the nine month period ended September 30, 2011, other expense in the amount of ($171,073) (2010: ($4,769)) was incurred.

Other expense incurred during the nine month period ended September 30, 2010 was offset by $42,502 in gain from restructured debt. This resulted in net loss of ($368,329) for the nine month period ended September 30, 2011 compared to a net loss of ($4,769) for the nine month period ended September 30, 2010. The weighted average number of shares outstanding was 110,144,642 for the nine month period ended September 30, 2011 compared to 83,412,869 for the nine month period ended September 30, 2010.
Three Month Period Ended September 30, 2011 Compared to Three Month Period Ended September 30, 2010.
Our net loss for the three month period ended September 30, 2011 was ($16,965) compared to a net loss of ($35,463) during the three month period ended September 30, 2010 (an increase in net loss of $18,498). We generated net revenues of $385,439 during the three month period ended September 30, 2011 compared to $243,095 during the three month period September 30, 2010.
Cost of goods sold increased during the three month period ended September 30, 2011 to $139,684 from $34,112 during the three month period ended September 30, 2010 resulting in a gross profit of $245,755 for the three month period ended September 30, 2011 compared to a gross profit of $208,983 for the three month period ended September 30, 2010.
During the three month period ended September 30, 2011, we incurred operating expenses of $156,393 compared to $271,584. These operating expenses incurred during the three month period ended September 30, 2011 consisted of: (i) business development of $8,954 (2010: $35,212); (ii) general and administrative of $87,807 (2010: $111,406); (iii) professional fees of $22,490 (2010: $61,523); and (iv) salaries and benefits of $37,142 (2010: ($63,443)).
Operating expenses incurred during the three month period ended September 30, 2011 compared to the three month period ended September 30, 2011 decreased primarily due to the decrease in general and administrative of $23,599, the decrease in business development of $26,258, and the decrease in salaries and benefits of $26,301.
24
Our net operating income during the three month period ended September 30, 2011 was $89,362 compared to a net operating loss of ($62,601) during the three month period ended September 30, 2010.
During the three month period ended September 30, 2011, other expense in the amount of ($106,327) was incurred compared to other income of $27,138 incurred during the three month period ended September 30, 2010.

Other expense incurred during the three month period ended September 30, 2010 was offset by $42,502 in gain from restructured debt. This resulted in net loss of ($16,965) for the three month period ended September 30, 2011 compared to net loss of ($35,463) for the three month period ended September 30, 2010.

We have negative cash flows from operating activities during the period. For the nine month period ended September 30, 2011, net cash flows used in operating activities was ($48,590) consisting primarily of net loss of ($368,329). Net cash flows used in operating activities was adjusted by $95,820 in depreciation and amortization, $103,350 in common stock issued in payment of services, $48,106 in common stock issue in payment of interest and $15,000 in preferred stock issued in payment of services.

We expect that working capital requirements will continue to be funded through a combination of our existing funds, revenues, cash flow, debt financing and further issuances of securities. Our working capital requirements are expected to increase in line with the growth of our business.
25
PLAN OF OPERATION AND FUNDING
We have incurred losses for the past two fiscal years and had a net loss of $368,329 for the nine month period ended September 30, 2011. We had insufficient funds to deliver our backlog in the last nine months of 2011. Our revenues from several product sales have been increasing and some others decreasing but are not sufficient to cover all of our operating expenses. Our auditors have expressed substantial doubt that we can continue as a going concern. We are continuing to push sales and control costs.
On March 25, 2011, the Securities and Exchange Commission declared effective a registration statement registering an offering of common stock which we anticipate will fund growth and acquisitions during the coming year. We have re-audited our financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2008 as a result of the Securities and Exchange Commission’s concerns that our principal accountant was not independent at the time that the audit of our 2008 financial statements was conducted. The re-audited financial statements are included in Form 10-K/A to the 2008 10-K, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on January 14, 2010.
Management intends to finance our 2011 operations primarily with the revenue from product sales and any cash short falls will be addressed through equity or debt financing, if available. We have the present ability to raise cash using an effective Form S-1 registration statement, provided that we are able to self-underwrite the offering or find a suitable investment banker willing to underwrite the offering in whole or in part. Management expects revenues will continue to increase but not to the point of profitability in the short term. We will need to continue to raise additional capital, both internally and externally, to cover cash shortfalls and to compete in our markets. At our current revenue levels management believes we will require an additional $1,200,000 in equity financing during the next 12 months to satisfy our cash requirements of approximately $100,000 per month for operations and to facilitate our business plan.
These operating costs include cost of sales, general and administrative expenses, salaries and benefits and professional fees related to contracting engineers. We have insufficient financing commitments in place to meet our expected cash requirements for 2011 and we cannot assure you that we will be able to obtain financing on favorable terms. If we cannot obtain financing to fund our operations in 2011, then we may be required to reduce our expenses and scale back our operations.
Commitments and Contingent Liabilities
We lease 3,600 sq. ft. of office and warehouse space at 1550 Caton Center Drive, Suites D and E, Baltimore, Maryland, under a three year non-cancellable operating lease which expired in October 2008. A recent renewal of the lease expired on August 31, 2010, and we again renewed the lease for one year which commenced September 1, 2010 and which expired August 31, 2011. At this time the rent is on a month to month basis however we are currently negotiating a new one-year lease for the same facility.The base rent had been $3,047 per month with an annual rent escalator of 3%. Under the current renewal the monthly lease payment is $3,077. Rent expense was $36,823 and $47,789 for the periods ended September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively.
Our total current liabilities increased to $1,822,865 at September 30, 2011 compared to $1,351,275 at December 31, 2010.

|
●
|
We have a convertible promissory note in the amount of $50,000 payable on December 31, 2010 with interest at 8% per annum. The loan is convertible into shares of common stock at $0.0033 per share.. During 2010, we issued 2,066,820 shares which paid for accrued interest and principal of $13,000. During 2011 sufficient shares were issued to pay off the loan in full. The balance due at September 30, 2011 was $-0-.
|
●
|
A loan of $100,000 was due in full on November 1, 2007 with interest at 7%. The holder of this note has demanded payment and has chosen to convert to equity. In February 2010, agreement was reached with the holder of the loan due on November 1, 2007. The Holder agreed to accept 3,500,000 common shares in payment, which he will liquidate to realize the principal sum of $100,000 plus associated costs and fees. The total due under this loan at the date of settlement in January 2010 was $163,366.27. Should the holder not realize $163,366.27 from the sale of 3,500,000 shares, then he will be granted additional shares to resolve any shortfall, provided his sales have been in good faith.

During the nine month period ended September 30, 2011, certain shareholders made cash advances to us to help with short-term working capital needs. The total additions to loans from shareholders with unstructured payment plans amounted to $6,934 during 2010 and $50,331 during the nine month period ended September 30, 2011. The total balance due on unstructured loans from shareholders is $177,792 at September 30, 2011.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to investors.
Contractual Obligations
As a “smaller reporting company” as defined by Item 10 of Regulation S-K, the Company is not required to provide this information.
Critical Accounting Policies
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Estimates of particular significance in our financial statements include annual tests for impairment of our licenses. These estimates could likely be materially different if events beyond our control, such as changes in government regulations that affect the usefulness of our licenses or the introduction of new technologies that compete directly with our licensed technologies affect the value of our licenses.
We first determine the value of the license using a projected cash-flow analysis to determine the present value of cash flows. The test is done using assumptions as to various scenarios of increases and decreases in the revenue stream and applying a discount rate of 6%. If the value achieved under these various methods is less than the carrying value of the assets then it is considered that an impairment has occurred and the asset’s carrying value is adjusted to reflect the impairment.
27
Management also makes estimates on the useful life of our licenses based on the following criteria:
●
|
Whether other assets or group of assets are related to the useful life of the licenses,
|
●
|
Whether any legal, regulatory or contractual provisions will limit the use of the assets,
|
●
|
We consider the possible effects of obsolescence, and
|
●
|
Whether there is maintenance or any other costs associated with the license.

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining internal control over our financial reporting. Our internal control system was designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Internal control over our financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that:
(1)
|
pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairy reflect our transactions.
|
(2)
|
provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorization of our management and directors; and
|
(3)
|
provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on our financial statements.
|
All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations, including the possibility of human error or circumvention through collusion of improper overriding of controls. Therefore, even those internal control systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation. Further, because of changes in conditions, the effectiveness of internal control may vary over time.
Our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2011. In making its assessment of internal control over financial reporting, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSD) in Internal-Control-Integrated Framework and implemented a process to monitor and assess both the design and operating effectiveness of our internal controls. Based on this assessment, management believes that as of June 30, 2011, our internal control over financial reporting was effective.
This quarterly report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit us to provide only management’s report in this quarterly report .

Our management has evaluated, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer/Chief Financial Officer, changes in our internal controls over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during the period ended June 30, 2011. In connection with such evaluation, there have been no changes to our internal control over financial reporting that occurred since the beginning of our six month period ended June 30, 2011 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.
