HOLDINGS INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES
TO INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
NOTE
1. NATURE OF BUSINESS AND MANAGEMENT'S PLANS
NetFabric
Holdings, Inc. ("Holdings" or the "Company") was incorporated under the laws of
the State of Delaware on August 31, 1989. The Company has two wholly-owned
subsidiaries, NetFabric Corporation (“NetFabric”) which is inactive and UCA
Services, Inc (“UCA”), which was sold in 2009.
On May
20, 2005 Holdings acquired UCA Services, Inc. UCA, a New Jersey company, is an
information technology ("IT") services company that serves the information and
communications needs of a wide range of Fortune 500 and small to mid-size
business clients in the financial markets industry as well as the
pharmaceutical, health care and hospitality sectors. UCA delivers a broad range
of IT services in the practice areas of infrastructure builds and maintenance,
managed services and professional services.
Effective
August 24, 2009, pursuant to a Memorandum of Understanding, the Company sold UCA
to Fortify Infrastructure Services, Inc. (“Fortify”) for $5,850,000 consisting
of $5,000,000 in cash, resulting from the cancellation of a $5,000,000 note
previously issued to Fortify by UCA on March 12, 2009, and a receivable of
$850,000, which was paid in May 2010. The Memorandum of Understanding
referred to above was signed on April 27, 2010 and amended the terms of previous
agreements dated March 12, 2009 and August 24, 2009 between UCA and
Fortify.
The
operations of UCA are reflected in the financial statements as discontinued
operations. The 2008 financial statements have been retrospectively adjusted to
reflect the operations of UCA as discontinued operations. Previously they were
reflected in the 2008 financial statements as part of continuing operations
(Note 4).
Management's
plans
As
discussed above, the Company sold UCA to Fortify for $5,850,000. Out of
proceeds from the transaction, the Company repaid all of its debt. After the
sale, the Company does not have any operations. However, the Company will be
debt free. The Company intends to explore strategic alternatives including
merger with another entity. Currently, the Company does not have any agreement
or understanding with any entity and there is no assurance that such a
transaction will ever be consummated. The Company believes that it will be able
to meet its cash requirements throughout fiscal 2010 and continue its business
development efforts.
NOTE
2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The
accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements have
been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and
Exchange Commission ("SEC"), except for the condensed consolidated balance sheet
as of December 31, 2008, which was derived from audited financial statements.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial
statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
in the United States of America have been omitted pursuant to such rules and
regulations. However the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to
make the information presented not misleading. The financial statements reflect
all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) that are, in
the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the Company's
financial position and results of operations.
-4-
The
operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and, 2008 are
not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any other interim
period or any future year. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated
interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's
December 31, 2008 consolidated financial statements and related notes contained
in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31,
2008.
Use
of Estimates
The
consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. In
preparing the financial statements, management is required to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the
date of the statements of financial condition and revenues and expenses for the
period then ended. Actual results may differ significantly from those
estimates.
Fair
value of financial instruments
The
carrying amounts reported in the condensed consolidated balance sheet for cash,
accounts payable and accrued expenses, and short term borrowings approximate
their fair market value based on the short-term maturity of these
instruments.
Earnings
(Loss) Per Share
The
Company calculates earnings (loss) basic earnings (loss) per share by dividing
the net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock
outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed by
dividing the net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of
common stock outstanding during the period plus the effects of any dilutive
securities. Diluted earnings (loss) per share considers the impact of
potentially dilutive securities except in periods in which there is a loss
because the inclusion of the potential common shares would have an anti-dilutive
effect. The Company's potentially dilutive securities include common shares
which may be issued upon exercise of its stock options, exercise of warrants or
conversion of convertible debt.
Diluted
loss per share for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008 exclude
potentially issuable common
shares of approximately 9,106,867 and 14,468,856, respectively, primarily
related to the Company's outstanding stock options, warrants and convertible
debt, because the assumed issuance of such potential common shares is
antidilutive.
NOTE
3. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In June
2009, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No.
168, The FASB Accounting Standards Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally
Accepted Accounting Principles (the “Codification”). This standard replaces SFAS
No. 162, The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, and
establishes only two levels of U.S. generally accepted accounting principles
(“GAAP”), authoritative and nonauthoritative. The FASB ASC has become the source
of authoritative, nongovernmental GAAP, except for rules and interpretive
releases of the SEC, which are sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC
registrants. All other nongrandfathered, non-SEC accounting literature not
included in the Codification will become nonauthoritative. This standard is
effective for financial statements for interim or annual reporting periods
ending after September 15, 2009. The adoption of the Codification changed the
Company’s references to GAAP accounting standards but did not impact the
Company’s results of operations, financial position or liquidity.
In April
2009, the Company adopted a new accounting standard included in ASC 820,
(formerly FSP 107-1 and Accounting Principles Board (“APB”) 28-1, Interim
Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments). The new standard
requires disclosures of the fair value of financial instruments for interim
reporting periods of publicly traded companies in addition to the annual
disclosure required at year-end.
-5-
The
provisions of the new standard were effective for the interim periods ending
after June 15, 2009. The Company’s adoption of this new accounting standard did
not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial
statements.
In May
2009, the FASB issued new guidance for subsequent events. The new guidance,
which is part of ASC 855, Subsequent Events (formerly SFAS No. 165, Subsequent
Events) is intended to establish general standards of accounting for and
disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before
financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. Specifically,
this guidance sets forth the period after the balance sheet date during which
management of a reporting entity should evaluate events or transactions that may
occur for potential recognition or disclosure in the financial statements, the
circumstances under which an entity should recognize events or transactions
occurring after the balance sheet date in its financial statements, and the
disclosures that an entity should make about events or transactions that
occurred after the balance sheet date. The new guidance is effective for fiscal
years and interim periods ended after June 15, 2009 and will be applied
prospectively. The Company’s adoption of the new guidance did not have a
material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The Company
evaluated subsequent events through the date the accompanying financial
statements were issued.
Other
accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by the FASB or other
standards-setting bodies that do not require adoption until a future date are
not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements
upon adoption.
NOTE
4. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
On March
12, 2009, the Company, along with its wholly owned subsidiary, UCA entered into
a Convertible Note Purchase Agreement dated March 12, 2009 with Fortify
Infrastructure Services, Inc. (“Fortify”). Pursuant to the
Convertible Note Purchase Agreement, Fortify purchased a Secured Convertible
Promissory Note (the “Note”) from UCA in the principal amount of $5 million with
the Company being a guarantor for UCA’s borrowings.
The Note
had a six-month term, and with interest at 8% per annum, compounded annually.
The Note was secured by (i) all of the assets of UCA and the Company and (ii)
all of the equity securities of UCA then owned or thereafter acquired by the
Company. At the exclusive option of Fortify, Fortify may convert the entire
principal amount of and accrued and unpaid interest on the Note into shares of
Series A Preferred Stock of UCA. The conversion price shall be at a price
equal to the price per share reflecting a valuation of UCA equal to $5 million,
on an as-converted basis.
Fortify,
UCA and the Company also entered into an Option and Purchase Agreement (“Option
Agreement”). Pursuant to the Option Agreement, Fortify has an option to acquire
all of the outstanding shares of common stock of UCA. Upon effectiveness of the
Company’s Definitive Schedule 14 C Information Statement to be filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) in connection with certain
actions taken by the written consent of holders of a majority of the Company’s
outstanding common stock approving the terms of the Option Agreement, Fortify
will exercise the option. Upon exercise of the Option, the Company will be
released from the guaranty obligations of the Note. Fortify will pay the Company
$500,000 (“Fixed Payment”) one year from the date the option is exercised. In
addition, Fortify will pay additional amounts to the Company (up to a maximum of
$500,000) and certain employees of UCA based on UCA’s performance during the
periods specified in the Option Agreement (“Performance Payment”).
The holders of a majority
of the Company’s outstanding common stock had previously approved the terms of
the Option Agreement by a written consent as detailed in the Company’s
Definitive Schedule 14 C Information Statement filed with SEC on July 9,
2009.
The
Company used approximately $3 million from the proceeds of the Note to repay all
amounts owed to Laurus Master Fund. The balance of the proceeds was be used for
repayment of debt, other payables and for working capital
purposes.
-6-
On August
24, 2009, the Company along with its wholly-owned subsidiary, UCA and Fortify
entered into Amendment No. 1 (“Amendment”) to the Option and Purchase Agreement
(“Option Agreement”) in connection with the closing of Fortify’s purchase of all
of the outstanding capital stock of UCA upon exercise of its option granted
under the Option Agreement. Pursuant to the Amendment, among other things, the Secured Convertible
Promissory Note in the principal amount of $5 million (including the related
accrued interest) issued by UCA to Fortify was cancelled, releases of certain
obligations of the parties were granted as specified in the Amendment, and the
commencement date and measurement period for the earn-out and bonuses provided
for in the Option Agreement were modified. Effective August 24, 2009, the
Company transferred its ownership interest in UCA to Fortify.
On April
27, 2010, the Company entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (“MOU”) with
Fortify and amended the Fixed Payment and Performance Payment previously agreed
by them. Pursuant to Fortify agreeing to pay the amounts on accelerated basis
unconditionally, the Company agreed to accept $850,000 in
aggregate as the full settlement of Fixed Payment and Performance payments. This
amount was received by the Company in May 2010.
In
accordance with FASB ASC 205-20-45-1 “Presentation of Financial
Statements-Discontinued Operations-Other Presentation Matters” the Company has
presented the results of UCA operations as discontinued operations in the
accompanying consolidated balance sheets, statement of operations and statement
of cash flows.

MANAGEMENT'S
DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS
The
following discussion and analysis and results of operations should be read in
conjunction with the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and
accompanying notes and the other financial information appearing elsewhere in
this report and reports included herein by reference. The following discussion
contains forward-looking statements that reflect our plans, estimates and
beliefs. Our actual results could differ materially from those discussed in the
forward-looking statements.
CORPORATE
HISTORY
We were
formerly known as Houston Operating Company and were incorporated in Delaware on
August 31, 1989. On December 9, 2004, we entered into an Acquisition Agreement
with all of the stockholders of NetFabric Corp., a Delaware corporation.
NetFabric Corp. was incorporated in Delaware on December 17, 2002 and began
operations in July 2003. At the closing, which occurred simultaneously with the
execution of the Acquisition Agreement, we acquired all of the issued and
outstanding capital stock of NetFabric Corp. from the stockholders in exchange
for an aggregate of 32,137,032 newly-issued shares of our common stock. The
acquisition was accounted for as a reverse merger whereby NetFabric Corp. was
treated as the acquirer. On April 19, 2005, our name was changed from Houston
Operating Company to NetFabric Holdings, Inc. and our stock symbol was changed
from "HOOC" to "NFBH."
Prior to
acquiring NetFabric Corp., Houston Operating Company did not have any
operations, and we were a shell company whose primary business objective was to
merge and become public. NetFabric Corp. was a provider of hardware and services
to small to mid-sized businesses ("SMBs") that utilized the Internet for
telephone communications or Voice over Internet Protocol ("VoIP"). It developed
and marketed appliances or Customer Premises Equipment ("CPE") that simplified
the integration of standard telephone systems with an IP infrastructure. In
addition, NetFabric Corp resold transport services of a third party VoIP
transport provider.
With
minimal revenues from VoIP operations, we concluded that we could not implement
our original business plan for VoIP operations within our resources or with the
additional capital we could raise in the near term. On May 5, 2006, our Board of
Directors decided that the Company should exit the hardware-based VoIP
communications product line (including resale of transport services) that is
targeted to SMBs.
UCA
SERVICES, INC. ACQUISITION
On May
20, 2005, we entered into and closed on a share exchange agreement, whereby we
purchased all of the issued and outstanding shares of UCA Services, Inc., a New
Jersey company (“UCA”) from its shareholders in exchange for the issuance of
24,096,154 shares of our common stock. UCA is an IT services and solutions
company that serves the information needs of a wide range of Fortune 500 clients
in the financial markets industry and the pharmaceutical, health care and
hospitality sectors. UCA delivers a broad range of IT services in managed
services, professional services, infrastructure building and maintenance,
application development and maintenance areas. The acquisition was accounted for
using the purchase method of accounting with UCA’s results of operations
included in our consolidated financial statements from the date of
acquisition.
-10-
DISCONTINUED
OPERATIONS
On August
24, 2009, the Company along with its wholly-owned subsidiary, UCA and Fortify
entered into Amendment No. 1 (“Amendment”) to the Option and Purchase Agreement
(“Option Agreement”) in connection with the closing of Fortify’s purchase of all
of the outstanding capital stock of UCA upon exercise of its option granted
under the Option Agreement. Pursuant to the Amendment, among other things, the
Secured Convertible Promissory Note in the principal amount of $5 million
(including the related accrued interest) issued by UCA to Fortify was cancelled,
releases of certain obligations of the parties were granted as specified in the
Amendment, and the commencement date and measurement period for the earn-out and
bonuses provided for in the Option Agreement were modified. Effective August 24,
2009, the Company transferred its ownership interest in UCA to
Fortify.
In
accordance with FASB ASC 205-20-45-1 “Presentation of Financial
Statements-Discontinued Operations-Other Presentation Matters” the Company has
presented the results of UCA operations as discontinued operations in the
accompanying consolidated balance sheet, statement of operations and statement
of cash flows.
UCA
derived revenues primarily from managed IT services, professional services,
application development services and business process management services.
Service arrangements with customers were generally on a time and material basis
or fixed-price, fixed-timeframe revenue basis. UCA’s principal operating
expenses were direct employee costs, consultant expenses and selling, general
and administrative expenses. The principal components of selling, general and
administrative expenses were salaries of sales and support personnel, and office
rent. Direct employee costs and consultant expenses were comprised primarily of
the costs of consultant labor, including employees, subcontractors and
independent contractors, and related employee benefits. Approximately 50% of our
consultants were employees and the remainder are subcontractors and independent
contractors.
We
compensated most of our consultants only for the hours that we bill to our
clients for projects undertaken, which allowed us to better match our labor
costs with our revenue generation. With respect to our consultant employees, we
were responsible for employment-related taxes, medical and health care costs and
workers' compensation. Labor costs were sensitive to shifts in the supply and
demand of IT professionals, as well as increases in the costs of benefits and
taxes.
After the
divesture of UCA, the Company does not have any operations. In the past, our
operations was that of a holding company that housed the finance and
administrative functions and was responsible for financing transactions and
regulatory compliance activities.
Comparison
of Three Months Ended March 31, 2009 and 2008:
Selling,
general and administrative expenses
Our
selling, general and administrative expenses increased for the three months
ended March 31, 2009 by $309,817, or 235.8%, to $441,184. The increase was due
to bonus/ one-time payment to an officer and additional professions fees
incurred in connection with UCA transaction.
Amortization
of debt discount
Amortization
of debt discount for the three months March 31, 2009 decreased by $89,504 or
49.3%, from $181,366 to $91,862. The reduction was due to the maturity of Laurus
debt and by the maturity all discount was amortized. The debt was repaid at the
maturity in March 2009 from the Fortify transaction, and there were no
additional borrowings incurred after the repayment.
-11-
Debt
issuance costs
We paid
approximately $48,000 fees in connection with our short term borrowing during
the three months ended March 31, 2009, which was charged to operation. In
2008, we incurred approximately $132,000 in fees during the three months ended
March 31, 2008. The decrease was due to the repayment of short term borrowings
from the Fortify transaction.
Interest
expense
For the
three months ended March 31, 2009, interest expense decreased by $66,792, or
64.8%, to $36,271 from $103,063. The decrease due to the repayment of Laurus and
other debt from the proceeds of the Fortify transaction in March
2009.
Discontinued
Operations
On August
24, 2009, we transferred our ownership interest in UCA to Fortify. In accordance
with FASB ASC 205-20-45-1 “Presentation of Financial Statements-Discontinued
Operations-Other Presentation Matters” we have presented the results of UCA
operations as discontinued operations in the accompanying consolidated balance
sheets, statement of operations and statement of cash flows.
During
the three months ended March 31, 2009, our income from discontinued operations
was $198,246 compared to $223,535 in the comparable period of 2008.
Decreased revenues in UCA due to non- renewal or termination of certain projects
undertaken in 2008 resulted in decreased profits in 2009 compared to
2008.
Net
loss
As a
result of the foregoing, for the three months ended March 31, 2009, net loss
increased by $85, 090, or 25.5%, to a loss of $418,701, compared to a net loss
of $333,611 during the three months ended March 31, 2008.
LIQUIDITY
AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
On March
31, 2009, our working capital deficiency was $6,510,323, compared to a working
capital deficiency of $6,212,328 on December 31, 2008. The increase was due to
the net loss incurred during the three months ended March 31, 2009. During the
three months ended March 31, 2009, our operating activities from continuing
operations used approximately $956,000 of cash, compared to
approximately $518,000 used during the three months ended March 31,
2008.
During
the three months ended March 31, 2009, our continuing operating losses, after
adjusting for non-cash items, used approximately $411,000 of cash, and working
capital items used approximately $545,000 of cash. The principal component of
these working capital changes was a decrease in our accounts payable and accrued
compensation. During the three months ended March 31, 2008, our continuing
operating losses, after adjusting for non-cash items, utilized approximately
$115,000 of cash, and working capital items used approximately $403,000 of
cash.
On March
12, 2009, we, along with our wholly owned subsidiary, UCA entered into a
Convertible Note Purchase Agreement dated March 12, 2009 with Fortify
Infrastructure Services, Inc. (“Fortify). Pursuant to the Convertible Note
Purchase Agreement, Fortify purchased a Secured Convertible Promissory Note (the
“Note”) from UCA in the principal amount of $5 million with us Company being a
guarantor for UCA’s borrowings.
-12-
The
Note had a six-month term, and with interest at 8% per annum, compounded
annually. The Note was secured by (i) all of the assets of UCA and our Company
and (ii) all of the equity securities of UCA then owned or thereafter acquired
by us. At the exclusive option of Fortify, Fortify may convert the entire
principal amount of and accrued and unpaid interest on the Note into shares of
Series A Preferred Stock of UCA. The conversion price shall be at a price
equal to the price per share reflecting a valuation of UCA equal to $5 million,
on an as-converted basis.
Fortify,
UCA and the Company also entered into an Option and Purchase Agreement (“Option
Agreement”). Pursuant to the Option Agreement, Fortify has an option to acquire
all of the outstanding shares of common stock of UCA. Upon effectiveness of the
our Definitive Schedule 14 C Information Statement to be filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) in connection with certain
actions taken by the written consent of holders of a majority of our outstanding
common stock approving the terms of the Option Agreement, Fortify will exercise
the option. Upon exercise of the Option, will be released from the guaranty
obligations of the Note. Fortify will pay us $500,000 (“Fixed Payment”) one year
from the date the option is exercised. In addition, Fortify will pay additional
amounts to us (up to a maximum of $500,000) and certain employees of UCA based
on UCA’s performance during the periods specified in the Option Agreement
(“Performance Payment”).
The holders of a majority
of our outstanding common stock had previously approved the terms of the Option
Agreement by a written consent as detailed in our Definitive Schedule 14 C
Information Statement filed with the SEC on July 9, 2009.
We used
approximately $3 million from the proceeds of the Note to repay all amounts owed
to Laurus Master Fund. The balance of the proceeds was be used for repayment of
debt, other payables and for working capital purposes.
On August
24, 2009,we along with its wholly-owned subsidiary, UCA and Fortify entered into
Amendment No. 1 (“Amendment”) to the Option and Purchase Agreement (“Option
Agreement”) in connection with the closing of Fortify’s purchase of all of the
outstanding capital stock of UCA upon exercise of its option granted under the
Option Agreement. Pursuant to the Amendment, among other things, the Secured Convertible
Promissory Note in the principal amount of $5 million (including the related
accrued interest) issued by UCA to Fortify was cancelled, releases of certain
obligations of the parties were granted as specified in the Amendment, and the
commencement date and measurement period for the earn-out and bonuses provided
for in the Option Agreement were modified. Effective August 24, 2009, we
transferred our ownership interest in UCA to Fortify.
On April
27, 2010,we entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (“MOU”) with Fortify and
amended the Fixed Payment and Performance Payment previously agreed by them.
Pursuant to Fortify agreeing to pay the amounts on accelerated basis
unconditionally, we agreed to accept $850,000 in aggregate as the full
settlement of Fixed Payment and Performance payments. This amount was received
us in May 2010
After the
divesture of UCA, we do not have any operations. However, we are debt free. We
will explore strategic alternatives including merger with another entity.
Currently, we do not have any agreement or understanding with any entity and
there is no assurance that such a transaction will ever be
consummated.
