NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(1)

Basis of Presentation

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are as of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011 and for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 for Fortress International Group, Inc. (“Fortress” or the “Company” or “We”).

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Certain information and note disclosures normally included in the annual financial statements, prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations. We recommend that you read these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011, previously filed with the SEC. We believe that the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q reflect all adjustments that are necessary to fairly present the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented. The results of operations for such interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that can be expected for the full year.

Nature of Business and Organization

The Company provides a single source solution for highly technical mission-critical facilities such as data centers, operations centers, network facilities, server rooms, security operations centers, communications facilities and the infrastructure systems that are critical to their function. The Company’s services consist of technology consulting, design and engineering, construction management, systems installations and facilities management.

The Company’s focus is centered on growing profitability and corresponding cash flow. On an ongoing basis, the Company works to increase project utilization and realign selling, general and administrative expenses through cost cutting measures. In the first quarter of 2012, the Company implemented a restructuring plan with estimated total annual savings of $2.8 million, of which $1.4 million is an estimated reduction in selling, general and administrative expenses (see Note 3). We will continue to closely monitor our costs relative to actual and anticipated revenues and may make further reductions to selling, general and administrative expenses including but not limited to personnel and related costs and marketing.

During the first quarter 2012, as a result of the decline in its profitability, the Company failed to comply with certain financial covenants under its revolving line of credit facility. While the Company had no outstanding borrowings under the line of credit and is unable to borrow under the facility because of its failure to comply with these covenants, the Company is in discussions with its bank to modify the terms of the line of credit through a covenant waiver, amendment of covenants, or combination thereof (see Note 8).

The Company had $6.0 million and $6.7 million of unrestricted cash and cash equivalents at March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. During the three months ended March 31, 2012, the Company financed its operations through its cash balances and working capital. As a result of efforts to align and monitor operating costs with anticipated revenues, management believes that the Company’s current cash and cash equivalents and expected future cash generated from operations will satisfy the expected working capital, capital expenditure and financial service requirements of the Company’s current business through the next twelve months.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2011, the FASB issued a new accounting standard on fair value measurements that clarifies the application of existing guidance and disclosure requirements, changes certain fair value measurement principles and requires additional disclosures about fair value measurements. We were required to adopt this standard in the first quarter of 2012. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In September 2011, the FASB issued guidance that simplified how entities may test for goodwill impairment. This guidance permits entities to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform a two-step goodwill impairment test. This guidance is effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011, and early adoption is permitted. This guidance is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.

Accounts Receivable, net

The Company had an allowance for doubtful accounts of $0.1 million at March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011. Bad debt expense for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 was zero and $30,000, respectively.

Included in accounts receivable was retainage associated with construction projects totaling $0.7 million and $0.2 million at March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively.

The Company earned approximately 46% and 37% of its revenue from two and one customers for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Accounts receivable from these two customers at March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011 were $4.6 million and $0.7 million, respectively.

Additionally, two customers comprising 41% of the Company’s total revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2011 were purchased in 2010. While we continue to pursue work with these customers, we recorded no revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2012 from them.

Under certain construction management contracts, the Company is obligated to obtain performance bonds with various financial institutions, which typically require a security interest in the corresponding receivable. At March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, bonds outstanding that are secured by specific project accounts receivable totaled $17.9 million.

(3)	Accounts Payable, Accrued Expenses and Restructuring Liability

The Company’s accounts payable and accrued expenses were comprised of the following at:

	March 31, 2012		December 31, 2011
Accounts payable	$	6,639,594	$	3,858,251
Accounts payable retainage		447,274		201,331

Other accrued expenses		1,019,462		899,073
Total accounts payable and accrued expenses	$	10,222,473	$	6,886,094

In an effort to align the Company’s resources with anticipated types of services and volume, the Company implemented a restructuring plan that included a reduction in force of 18 employees resulting in restructuring charges of $0.3 million from accrued severance, equity based expense and health care costs for the three months ended March 31, 2012. No such charges were recorded in the prior year.

490,402 shares of unvested restricted stock and unsecured promissory notes convertible into 366,666 shares of common stock that were outstanding at March 31, 2012 were not included in the computation of diluted net loss per common share for the three months ended March 31, 2012, as their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.

Unsecured promissory notes convertible into 366,666 shares of common stock that were outstanding at March 31, 2011 were not included in the computation of diluted net income per common share for the three months ended March 31, 2011, as their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.

Employee Benefit Plans

Restricted Stock

For the three months ended March 31, 2012 and March 31, 2011, the Company granted 250,000 and 66,250 shares of restricted stock, respectively, under the 2006 Omnibus Incentive Compensation Plan. For the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, the Company recorded non-cash compensation expense included in selling, general and administrative expenses associated with vesting awards of $0.1 million and $0.2 million in both periods. At March 31, 2012, there was approximately $0.5 million of unrecognized stock compensation with a weighted average remaining life of 2.3 years.

(6)	Common Stock Repurchases

For the three months ended March 31, 2012, the Company repurchased 21,647 shares with an aggregate value of $0.02 million associated with the vesting of restricted stock held by an employee. For the three months ended March 31, 2011, the Company repurchased 20,802 shares with an aggregate value of $0.03 million associated with the vesting of restricted stock held by an employee. Per terms of the restricted stock agreements, the Company paid the employee’s related taxes associated with the employee’s vested stock and decreased the shares held by the employee by a corresponding value, resulting in a share issuance net of taxes to the employee. The value of the shares netted for employee taxes represents treasury stock repurchased.

(7)

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method. Deferred income taxes are provided for the temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax basis of the Company’s assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse.

The Company is in a net operating loss carryover position. The net operating losses not utilized can be carried forward for 20 years to offset future taxable income. As of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, a full valuation allowance has been recorded against the Company’s deferred tax assets, as the Company has concluded that, under relevant accounting standards, it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will not be realizable.

The Company’s effective tax rate is based upon the rate expected to be applicable for the full fiscal year.

The Company files a consolidated federal tax return in states that allow it, and in other states the Company files separate tax returns.

The Company’s prior federal and state income tax filings since 2008 remain open under statutes of limitation. Innovative Power System Inc.’s statutes of limitation are open from the 2008 tax year forward for both federal and Commonwealth of Virginia purposes. Quality Power Systems Inc.’s statutes of limitation are open from the 2008 tax year forward for both federal and Commonwealth of Virginia purposes. SMLB, Ltd. statutes of limitation are open from the 2008 tax year forward for both federal and State of Illinois purposes.

For the three months ended March 31, 2011, the Company made principal repayments of $19,479.

Line of Credit

On November 8, 2011, the Company and its subsidiaries Innovative Power Systems, Inc., VTC, L.L.C., Total Site Solutions Arizona, LLC, and Alletag Builders, Inc. (together with the Company, collectively, “Borrowers”) obtained a credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) from Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (“Lender”) pursuant to a Credit Agreement by and among Borrowers and Lender (the “Credit Agreement”). Borrowers’ obligations under the Credit Facility are joint and several. The maximum amount of the Credit Facility is $2,000,000. The Credit Facility is subject to a borrowing base of 80% of eligible accounts receivable. Borrowings under the Credit Facility will bear interest at the London interbank offered rate plus 2.25% per annum. The Credit Facility matures on November 1, 2012. The obligations under the Credit Facility are secured by substantially all of Borrowers’ assets.

For the three months ended March 31, 2012, the Company failed to comply with the financial covenants requiring (a) a maximum ratio of total liabilities to tangible net worth as set forth in the Credit Agreement; and (b) a minimum debt service coverage ratio as set forth in the Credit Agreement. While we have no outstanding borrowings under the Credit Facility, we are unable to borrow under the Credit Facility because of our failure to comply with these financial covenants. In an effort to restore borrowing capacity under the Credit Facility, the Company is in discussions with its bank to modify the terms of the Credit Facility through a covenant waiver, amendment of covenants, or combination thereof. At this time, however, there is no assurance that the terms of the Credit Facility will be modified.

Commitments, Contingencies and Other

On March 28, 2012, Mr. Rosato resigned as non-executive Chairman of the Board, which resulted in the termination of his consulting agreement. Based on an unanimous vote, the Board elected Mr. Woodward to serve as the non-executive Chairman of the Board effective March 28, 2012.

Subsequent Events

Subsequent to March 31, 2012, the fair market value of the Company based on the trading price of the Company's common stock on the OTCQB marketplace declined to an amount below the book equity value of the Company. This decline has been deemed a circumstance of possible goodwill impairment that may require a goodwill impairment evaluation sooner than the required annual evaluation in the fourth quarter of 2012. If such analysis is required to be completed, and if the analysis determines the Company’s goodwill and other indefinite lived assets would not be recoverable, an impairment charge will be made when such determination has been made.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our Financial Statements and related Notes thereto included elsewhere in this report.

The terms “we” and “our” and the “Company” as used throughout this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q refer to Fortress International Group, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries, unless otherwise indicated.

Business Formation and Overview

We were incorporated 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 an operating business that performs services 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 acquisition fundamentally transformed the Company from a special purpose acquisition company to an operating business.

We provide comprehensive services for the planning, design, development and maintenance 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.

Competition in Current Economic Environment

Our industry has been and may be further adversely impacted by the current economic environment and tight credit conditions. We have seen larger competitors seek to expand their services offerings including a focus in the mission-critical market. These larger competitors have an infrastructure and support greater than ours, and accordingly, we have experienced some price pressure as some companies are willing to take on projects at lower margins. With certain customers, we have experienced a delay in spending, or deferral of projects to an indefinite commencement date, due to the economic uncertainty or lack of access to capital.

Although we will closely monitor our proposal pricing and the volume of our contracts, we have seen our margins decrease and cannot be certain that our current margins will be sustained. Furthermore, given the economic environment, to the extent the volume of our contracts further decreases, we may have to take additional measures to reduce our operating costs through additional reductions in general, administrative and marketing costs, including potential reductions in personnel and related costs.

Contract Backlog

We believe an indicator of our future performance is our backlog of uncompleted projects in process or recently awarded. Our backlog represents our estimate of anticipated revenue from executed and awarded contracts that have not been completed and that we expect will be recognized as revenues over the life of the contracts. The use of our backlog as in indicator of our future performance is limited because backlog does not include certain sources of revenue including any future renewals of facilities maintenance contracts and the contracts underlying our backlog may be cancelled or modified on short notice which would affect the amount of backlog actually recognized as revenue. We have broken our backlog into the following three categories: (i) technology consulting, consisting of services related to consulting and/or engineering design contracts, (ii) construction management, and (iii) facility management.

Backlog is not a measure defined in generally accepted accounting principles, and our methodology for determining backlog may not be comparable to the methodology of other companies in determining their backlog. Our backlog is generally recognized under two categories: (1) contracts for which work authorizations have been or are expected to be received on a fixed-price basis, guaranteed maximum price basis or time and materials basis, and (2) contracts awarded to us where some, but not all, of the work have not yet been authorized. At March 31, 2012, we had authorizations to proceed with work for approximately $15.1 million, or 64% of our total backlog of $23.5 million. At December 31, 2011, we had authorizations to proceed with work for approximately $27.2 million, or 77% of our total backlog of $35.3 million.

Approximately $19.4 million, or 69%, and $24.4 million, or 69%, of our backlog, relates to two customers at March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively.

We believe that approximately 64% of the backlog at March 31, 2012 will be recognized during the next twelve months. The following table reflects the value of our backlog in the above three categories as of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, or GAAP. The preparation of the financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q requires that management make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and the accompanying notes. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.

We believe the following critical accounting policies affect the more significant estimates and judgments used in the preparation of our financial statements.

Revenue Recognition

We recognize revenue when pervasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the contract price is fixed or determinable, services have been rendered or goods delivered, and collectability is reasonably assured. Our revenue is derived from the following types of contractual arrangements: fixed-price contracts, time-and-materials contracts and cost-plus-fee contracts (including guaranteed maximum price contracts). Revenue from fixed-price contracts is accounted for under the application of ASC 605-35 Construction-Type and Certain Production-Type Contracts, recognizing revenue on the percentage-of-completion method using costs incurred in relation to total estimated project costs. The cost to total cost method is used because management considers cost incurred and costs to complete to be the best available measure of progress in the contracts. Contract costs include all direct materials, subcontract and labor costs and those indirect costs related to contract performance, such as indirect labor, payroll taxes, employee benefits and supplies.

Revenue on time-and-material contracts is recognized based on the actual labor hours performed at the contracted billable rates, and costs incurred on behalf of the customer. Revenue on cost-plus-fee contracts is recognized to the extent of costs incurred, plus an estimate of the applicable fees earned. Fixed fees under cost-plus-fee contracts are recorded as earned in proportion to the allowable costs incurred in performance of the contract.

Certain of our contracts involve the delivery of multiple elements including design management, system installation and facilities maintenance. Revenues from contracts with multiple element arrangements are recognized as each element is earned based on the relative selling price of each element provided the delivered elements have value to customers on a standalone basis. Amounts allocated to each element are based on its objectively determined fair value, such as the sales price for the service when it is sold separately or competitor prices for similar services.

Contract revenue recognition inherently involves estimation. Examples of estimates include the contemplated level of effort to accomplish the tasks under the contract, the costs of the effort and an ongoing assessment of the Company’s progress toward completing the contract. From time to time, as part of our standard management process, facts develop that require us to revise our estimated total costs on revenue. To the extent that a revised estimate affects contract profit or revenue previously recognized, we record the cumulative effect of the revision in the period in which the revisions become known. The full amount of an anticipated loss on any type of contract is recognized in the period in which it becomes probable and can reasonably be estimated.

Under certain circumstances, we may elect to work at risk prior to receiving an executed contract document. We have a formal procedure for authorizing any such at risk work to be incurred. Revenue, however, is deferred until a contract modification or vehicle is provided by the customer.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

The allowance for doubtful accounts is our best estimate of the amount of probable credit losses in our existing accounts receivable. We determine the allowance based on an analysis of our historical experience with bad debt write-offs and an aging of the accounts receivable balance. Unanticipated changes in the financial condition of clients, or significant changes in the economy could impact the reserves required. Account balances are charged off against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote.

Non-cash Compensation

The Company applies the fair value method that requires all share-based payments to employees be expensed over their requisite service period based on their fair value at the grant date. The recognition of the value of the instruments results in compensation or professional expenses in our financial statements. The expense differs from other compensation and professional expenses in that these charges are typically settled through the issuance of common stock, which would have a dilutive effect upon earnings per share, if and when such restricted stock vests. The determination of the estimated fair value used to record the compensation or professional expenses associated with the equity or liability instruments issued requires management to make a number of assumptions and estimates that can change or fluctuate over time.

Goodwill and Other Purchased Intangible Assets

Goodwill represents the excess of costs over fair value of net assets of businesses acquired. Other purchased intangible assets include the fair value of items such as customer contracts, backlog and customer relationships. Goodwill and intangible assets acquired in a purchase business combination and determined to have an indefinite useful life are not amortized, but rather tested for impairment on an annual basis or triggering event. Purchased intangible assets with a definite useful life are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives.

The estimated fair market value of identified intangible assets is amortized over the estimated useful life of the related intangible asset. We have a process pursuant to which we typically retain third-party valuation experts to assist us in determining the fair market values and useful lives of identified intangible assets. We evaluate these assets for impairment when events occur that suggest a possible impairment. Such events could include, but are not limited to, the loss of a significant client or contract, decreases in federal government appropriations or funding for specific programs or contracts, or other similar events. We determine impairment by comparing the net book value of the asset to its future undiscounted net cash flows. If impairment occurs, we will record an impairment expense equal to the difference between the net book value of the asset and its estimated discounted cash flows using a discount rate based on our cost of capital and the related risks of recoverability.

Long-Lived Assets (Excluding Goodwill)

In accordance with the accounting guidance related to accounting for long-lived assets such as property, equipment and intangible assets subject to amortization, we review the assets for impairment. If circumstances indicate the carrying value of the asset may not be fully recoverable, a loss is recognized at the time impairment exists and a permanent reduction in the carrying value of the asset is recorded. We believe that the carrying values of its long-lived assets as of March 31, 2012 are fully realizable.

Income Taxes

Deferred income taxes are provided for the differences between the basis of assets and liabilities for financial reporting and income tax purposes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using tax rates in effect for the year in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. A valuation allowance is established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

We make certain estimates and judgments in determining income tax expense for financial statement purposes. These estimates and judgments occur in the calculation of certain tax assets and liabilities, which principally arise from differences in the timing of recognition of revenue and expense for tax and financial statement purposes. We also must analyze income tax reserves, as well as determine the likelihood of recoverability of deferred tax assets, and adjust any valuation allowances accordingly. Considerations with respect to the recoverability of deferred tax assets include the period of expiration of the tax asset, planned use of the tax asset, and historical and projected taxable income, as well as tax liabilities for the tax jurisdiction to which the tax asset relates. Valuation allowances are evaluated periodically and will be subject to change in each future reporting period as a result of changes in one or more of these factors.

ASC 740 Income Taxes 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, and also provides guidance on de-recognition 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. As of March 31, 2012, we do not have any material gross unrecognized tax benefit liabilities.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2011, the FASB issued a new accounting standard on fair value measurements that clarifies the application of existing guidance and disclosure requirements, changes certain fair value measurement principles and requires additional disclosures about fair value measurements. We are required to adopt this standard in the first quarter of 2012. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on our financial statements.

Results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2012 compared with the three months ended March 31, 2011.

Revenue. Revenue increased $4.7 million to $14.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012 from $9.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011. The increase primarily relates to an increase in construction management services as we had a large project in process as compared to the prior year when a large project was concluding.

Cost of Revenue. Cost of revenue increased $6.8 million to $12.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012 from $5.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011. The increase in revenue described above was the primary driver for the increase in cost of revenues.

Gross Margin Percentage. Gross margin percentage decreased to 14.4% for the three months ended March 31, 2012 compared to 43.0% for the three months ended March 31, 2011. The decrease in gross margin is attributable primarily to the effect in the prior year of a large construction management project entering its final stages of completion, whereby claims and estimates relating to disputed change orders were concluded and we experienced an improving mix in our services. The current gross margin percentage is consistent with anticipated gross margin levels given the composition of work, and we anticipate it to continue in the 15% to 20% range for the remainder of the year.

Selling, general and administrative expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased $0.1 million to $2.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012 from $3.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011. The decrease was primarily driven by $0.2 million decrease in commissions resulting from the decline in profitability.

Restructuring charges. Restructuring charges, consisting primarily of severance payments and equity based expense, increased $0.3 million to $0.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012 from zero for the three months ended March 31, 2011. In an effort to align our resources with anticipated types of services and volume, we implemented a restructuring plan with estimated annual savings of $2.8 million of which $1.4 million relates to selling, general and administrative expenses based on pay reductions, reductions in force of approximately 18 employees, and related reductions in employee benefits and other costs. We will continue to closely monitor our bookings and anticipated revenues, and we may take future actions to reduce operating costs associated with personnel and related costs in an effort to remain profitable.

Depreciation. Depreciation remained consistent at $0.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012 compared to $0.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011.

Interest income (expense), net. Our interest income (expense), net increased to ($42,768) for the three months ended March 31, 2012 compared to ($16,834) for the three months ended March 31, 2011. The increase in expense was primarily attributable to increased interest from amortized costs of establishing our line of credit.

Net decrease in cash	$	(691,616	)	$	(4,047,654	)	$	3,356,038

Cash and cash equivalents decreased $0.7 million to $6.0 million at March 31, 2012 from $6.7 million at December 31, 2011. The decrease was primarily attributable $0.5 million used in operating activities and $0.2 million of purchased property and equipment. The $0.5 million decrease in operating activities was primarily attributable to net loss of $1.3 million, offset in part by non-cash adjustments and decrease in working capital of $0.2 million and $0.5 million, respectively.

Operating Activity

Net cash used in operating activities totaled $0.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012 compared to $4.0 million used in operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2011. The $3.5 million decrease in operating cash outflows was attributable to a $5.8 million decrease in working capital, offset in part by a decrease in net income of $2.3 million. The decrease in working capital was attributable primarily to projects at various stages of production in the first quarter 2012 compared to a significant project that was entering into the closure process in the first quarter 2011.

Investing Activity

Net cash used in investing activities increased $0.2 million to $0.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012 from approximately zero used in for the three months ended March 31, 2011. The increase was associated with purchases of property and equipment including an upgraded sales software management tool and leasehold improvements associated with consolidation of our office space.

Financing Activity

Net cash used in financing decreased $0.1 million to approximately zero for the three months ended March 31, 2012 from $0.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011. For the three months ended March 31, 2011, financing activities consisted primarily of the scheduled seller note repayments.

Adjusted EBITDA

A reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net (loss) income:

	(Unaudited)
	For the Three Months Ended
	March 31, 2012			March 31, 2011
Net (loss) income	$	(1,252,089	)	$	1,021,926
Interest expense, net		42,768			16,834
Depreciation and amortization		76,905			62,699
EBITDA	$	(1,132,416	)	$	1,101,459
Stock based compensation		97,367			166,910
Provision for bad debts		-			30,000
Adjusted EBITDA	$	(1,035,049	)	$	1,298,369

Adjusted EBITDA decreased $2.3 million to ($1.0 million) in the three months ended March 31, 2012 from $1.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011. The decrease was primarily driven by decreased gross profit for the three months ended March 31, 2012. Please refer to the preceding discussion within this “Results of Operations” section.

Adjusted EBITDA is a supplemental financial measure not defined in GAAP. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, impairment loss on goodwill and other intangibles, net, stock-based compensation, lease exit costs, and provision for bad debts. We present Adjusted EBITDA because we believe this supplemental measure of operating performance is helpful in comparing our operating results across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that may, or could, have a disproportionate positive or negative impact on our results of operations in any particular period. We also use Adjusted EBITDA as a factor in evaluating the performance of certain management personnel when determining incentive compensation. We believe that the line item on the consolidated statement of operations entitled “net income” is the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure to Adjusted EBITDA. Since Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure of performance calculated in accordance with GAAP, it should not be considered in isolation of, or as a substitute for, net income as an indicator of operating performance or any other GAAP financial measure. Adjusted EBITDA, as calculated by us, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures employed by other companies. In addition, this measure does not necessarily represent funds available for discretionary use and is not necessarily a measure of our ability to fund our cash needs. As Adjusted EBITDA excludes certain financial information that is included in net income attributable to the Company, users of this financial information should consider the type of events and transactions that are excluded. Our non-GAAP performance measure, Adjusted EBITDA, has certain material limitations as follows:

	·	It does not include impairment loss on goodwill and other intangibles, net. Because we utilize goodwill and other intangibles to generate revenues in our operations, this is a periodic and ongoing cost of our operations.

	·	It does not include stock-based compensation. Stock based compensation is a necessary and ongoing part of our costs and has assisted us in reducing our cash compensation to attract and retain our workforce who support and generate revenues. Stock-based compensation will remain a key element of our overall compensation program.
	·	It does not include provision for bad debts. Provision for bad debts is necessary as we take credit risk with customers and is an ongoing part of our operations.

It does not include interest expense. Because we have borrowed money to finance some of our operations, interest is a necessary and ongoing part of our costs and has assisted us in generating revenue.

It does not include taxes. The payment of taxes is a necessary and ongoing part of our operations.

	·	It does not include depreciation and amortization. We must utilize property, plant and equipment and intangible assets in order to generate revenues in our operations, depreciation and amortization are necessary and ongoing costs of our operations.

		Other Companies in our industry may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently than we do, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We had $6.0 million and $6.7 million of unrestricted cash and cash equivalents at March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. During the three months ended March 31, 2012, we have financed our operations primarily with cash on hand and working capital.

Our current corporate focus is centered on growing cash reserves, while attempting to organically grow profitability and corresponding cash flow. We have worked to increase project utilization and realign selling, general and administrative expenses through cost cutting measures. In our efforts to maintain and grow profitability, we will closely monitor our costs relative to actual and anticipated revenues and may make further reductions to selling, general and administrative expenses including but not limited to personnel and related costs and marketing.

During the three months ended March 31, 2012, our cash and working capital declined $0.7 million and $1.4 million, respectively, due primarily to our operating losses in the corresponding period. We work to monitor project utilization and align selling, general and administrative expenses through anticipated revenues. While we experienced an increase in revenue during 2012 from the prior year, they were at a lower overall gross margin. As a result of our continued focus on profitability, during the first quarter we implemented restructuring plans with estimated total annual savings of $2.8 million, of which $1.4 million is an estimated reduction in selling, general and administrative expenses.

During the first quarter of 2012, we completed implementation of an enhanced sales reporting tool, as we aim to increase sales productivity by realigning our sale focus and supporting productivity measures. Our efforts to maintain and grow profitability include closely monitoring our costs relative to actual and anticipated revenue, which may require us to make further reductions to operating costs.

During the first quarter 2012, as a result of the decline in profitability we failed to comply with certain financial covenants under our revolving line of credit facility. While we had no outstanding borrowings under the line of credit, we are unable to borrow under the facility because of our failure to comply with the financial covenants. In an effort to restore borrowing capacity under the line, the Company is in discussions with its bank to modify the terms of the line of credit through a covenant waiver, amendment of covenants, or combination thereof. At this time, however, there is no assurance that the terms of the facility will be modified. While our credit facility is a financial component evaluated to determine our total bonding capacity by our bonding agent, we have not determined the impact the unavailability of the credit facility may have in limiting our total bonding capacity. We believe that our current cash and cash equivalents and expected future cash generated from operations will satisfy over the next twelve months the expected working capital, capital expenditure and financing obligations of our current business, including $0.5 million in repayment of unsecured convertible promissory notes.

We may elect to secure additional capital in the future, at acceptable terms, to improve our liquidity or fund acquisitions. The amounts involved in any such transaction, individually or in the aggregate, may be material. To the extent that we raise additional capital through the sale of equity securities, the issuance of such securities could result in dilution to our existing stockholders. If we raise additional funds through the issuance of debt securities, the terms of such debt could impose additional restrictions on our operations.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of March 31, 2012, we do not have any off balance sheet arrangements.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.

The information called for by this item is not required as we are a smaller reporting company.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Our management performed an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer (principal executive officer) and our 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 March 31, 2012. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that as of March 31, 2012, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting for the first quarter of 2012 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15 and 15d-15 of the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

We are not a party to any material litigation in any court, and management is not aware of any contemplated proceeding by any governmental authority against us. From time to time, we are involved in various legal matters and proceedings concerning matters arising in the ordinary course of business. We currently believe that any ultimate liability arising out of these matters and proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

In addition to the other information set forth in this Form 10-Q, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in Part I, “Item 1A: Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011, which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results. The risks described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K are not the only risks that we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results.
