QUADRANT 4 SYSTEM CORPORATION

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

NOTE 1 –ORGANIZATION AND OPERATIONS

Organization

Quadrant 4 System Corporation (the “Company” or “Quadrant 4”) was incorporated in Florida on May 14, 1990, as Sun Express Group, Inc. and changed its business model and name on June 30, 2011. On April 25, 2013, the Florida Company did a statutory merger with its Illinois Company, Q4 Systems Corporation with the Illinois Company being the surviving entity. The surviving Illinois parent has 200,000,000 authorized shares of common stock with a par value of $0.001 per share. Quadrant 4 operates its business through its wholly owned subsidiaries and is transforming itself to a SMAC (Social – Mobile – Analytics – Cloud) company. The Company has significant presence in Health Insurance, Media, Retail and Financial Services verticals.

Operations

Quadrant 4 is a leading Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) and Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) company. The Company develops, implements, and operates PaaS and SaaS systems, including qHIX for the health insurance markets; qBLITZ for the digital media business; and qSKU for retailers. These platforms have a built in proprietary set of SMAC (social media, mobility, analytics and cloud computing) components and focus on providing solutions for Fortune 500 companies.

NOTE 2 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and the rules and regulations under Regulation S-X of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission for Form 10-Q, and should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for Quadrant 4 System Corporation (the “Registrant” or the “Company”) for the year ended December 31, 2013. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements presentation. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented have been included. Notes to the financial statements which would substantially duplicate the disclosures contained in the audited financial statements for the most recent fiscal year ended December 31, 2013, as reported in the Form 10-K, have been omitted.

In preparing the interim unaudited consolidated financial statements, management was required to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and related disclosures at the financial reporting date and throughout the periods being reported upon. Certain of the estimates result from judgments that can be subjective and complex and consequently actual results may differ from these estimates. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements of the Company together with the Company’s management discussion and analysis in Item 2 of this report and in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

NOTE 3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Consolidated Financial Statements

The consolidated financial statements include all the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company considers the carrying amounts of financial instruments, including cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses and notes payable to approximate their fair values because of their relatively short maturities.

Table of Contents

Accounts and Unbilled Receivables

Accounts and unbilled receivables consist of amounts due from customers. The Company records a provision for doubtful receivables, if necessary, to allow for any amounts which may be unrecoverable, which is based upon an analysis of the Company’s prior collection experience, customer creditworthiness and current economic trends.

Intangible Assets

Intangible assets are recorded at fair value and amortized on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets.

The carrying value of intangible assets are reviewed for impairment by management at least annually or upon the occurrence of an event which may indicate that the carrying amount may be greater than its fair value. If impaired, the Company will write-down such impairment. In addition, the useful life of the intangible assets will be evaluated by management at least annually or upon the occurrence of an event which may indicate that the useful life may have changed.

Customer lists are valued based on management’s forecast of expected future net cash flows, with revenues based on projected revenues from customers acquired and are being amortized over five years.

Acquired intellectual property is valued based on management’s forecast of expected future net cash flows, with revenue based on projected sales of these technologies and are amortized over five to seven years.

Software Costs

Costs that are related to the conceptual formulation and design of licensed software programs are expensed as incurred to research, development and engineering expenses; costs that are incurred to produce the finished product after technological feasibility has been established are capitalized as an intangible asset. Capitalized amounts are amortized on a straight-line basis over periods ranging up to five years and are recorded in amortization expense. The Company performs periodic reviews to ensure that unamortized program cost remain recoverable from future revenue. Cost to support or service licensed program are charged to cost of revenue as incurred.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue is recognized when there is persuasive evidence of an arrangement, the fee is fixed and determinable, performance of service has occurred and collection is reasonably assured. Revenue is recognized in the period the services are provided.

Income (loss) per Common Share

Basic income (loss) per share is calculated using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during each period. Diluted income per share includes potentially dilutive securities such as outstanding options and warrants outstanding during each period.

Concentrations of Credit Risk

The Company maintains cash at various financial institutions, which at times, may be in excess of insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses to date as a result of this policy and, in assessing its risk, the Companies’ policy is to maintain cash only with reputable financial institutions.

The Company’s largest customer represented 18% of consolidated revenues and 8% of accounts receivable for the nine months ended September 30, 2014. No individual customer exceeded 10% of consolidated revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2013.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (ASU 2014-09), which supersedes nearly all existing revenue recognition guidance under U.S. GAAP. The core principle of ASU 2014-09 is to recognize revenues when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 defines a five step process to achieve this core principle and, in doing so, more judgment and estimates may be required within the revenue recognition process than are required under existing U.S. GAAP.

Table of Contents

The standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods therein, using either of the following transition methods: (i) a full retrospective approach reflecting the application of the standard in each prior reporting period with the option to elect certain practical expedients, or (ii) a retrospective approach with the cumulative effect of initially adopting ASU 2014-09 recognized at the date of adoption (which includes additional footnote disclosures). We are currently evaluating the impact of our pending adoption of ASU 2014-09 on our consolidated financial statements and have not yet determined the method by which we will adopt the standard in 2017.

Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective accounting pronouncements, if adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 4 – ACQUISITIONS

Teledata Technology Solutions, Inc.

Effective February 1, 2013, the Company acquired the assets of Teledata Technology Solutions, Inc. and its subsidiaries, Abaris, Inc., Alphasoft Services Corporation and TTS Consulting, Inc. (collectively “TTS”). Upon consummation of the transaction, whereby the Company acquired certain assets including but not limited to client contracts, trademarks, software technology, employees and other resources in exchange for: (i) the assumption of certain liabilities of $5,100,000; (ii) cash of $900,000; (iii) earn-out payments equal to $1,500,000 as defined in the Agreement; (iv) 3,000,000 common shares valued at $1,000,000.

Acquisition of Momentum Mobile, LLC

On February 26, 2013 (and amended on February 26, 2014) effective February 1, 2013 the Company completed acquisition of certain the assets of Momentum Mobile, LLC. The assets including client contracts and employees were transferred in exchange for: (i) cash of $400,000; (ii) earn-out payments up to $800,000 as defined in the Agreement; (iii) 1,075,000 common shares valued at $354,750.

Acquisition of BlazerFish, LLC

On February 26, 2013 effective February 1, 2013 (and as amended in September 2013) the Company completed acquisition of certain assets of BlazerFish, LLC. The assets including client contracts, intellectual property and employees were transferred in exchange for: (i) cash of $250,000; (ii) earn-out payments equal to $600,000 as defined in the Agreement; (iii) 6,700,000 common shares valued at $1,900,000.

The following table summarizes the consideration transferred for the three acquisitions and the estimated amounts of identified assets acquired and liabilities assumed on the effective date of the acquisitions:

Fair value of consideration transferred from the acquisitions:
	TTS		Momentum		BlazerFish		Total
Cash	$	900,000	$	400,000	$	250,000	$	1,550,000
Common stock		1,000,000		354,750		1,900,000		3,254,750
Contingent payments		1,500,000		800,000		600,000		2,900,000
	$	3,400,000	$	1,554,750	$	2,750,000	$	7,704,750

Recognized amounts of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed:
Customer lists intangibles	$	7,650,000		$	1,554,750	$	85,000	$	9,289,750
Technology stack intangibles		850,000			-		2,665,000		3,515,000
Certain accounts payable and accrued liabilities		(1,832,000	)		-		-		(1,832,000	)
Notes payable		(3,268,000	)		-		-		(3,268,000	)
	$	3,400,000		$	1,554,750	$	2,750,000	$	7,704,750

Each of the acquisitions include certain contingent consideration arrangements that required quarterly cash payments beginning June 30, 2013 through June 30, 2015 if the respective entity’s revenue run rate (as defined in the agreements) is 75% or more of its defined base. The range of undiscounted amounts the Company could owe under these arrangements is between $0 and $2,900,000. The fair value of contingent consideration on the acquisition dates(s) of approximately $2,900,000 were estimated based on the projected revenues of each asset purchase through 2015. The calculations and projections are based on significant inputs not observable in the market, which ASC 820 refers to as level 3 inputs. Key assumptions include the maintenance of certain customers as well as utilizing certain technology across the Company’s existing client base. Decrease in the contingent considerations and a settlement of earn-out liabilities resulted in a reduction of the earn-out liability of $570,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and $437,513 for the three months ended December 31, 2013.

Table of Contents

(b) On February 6, 2013, in conjunction with the purchase of Teledata Technology Solutions, the Company issued the following notes:

Note 1: $682,500 note, requiring monthly interest payments at an annual rate of 16% on the unpaid principal balance, with an original maturity date of May 14, 2013.

Note 2: $1,000,000 note with an original maturity date of February 6, 2015, requiring 24 consecutive monthly principal payments of $10,000 plus any accrued interest at a rate of 10% on the unpaid principal balance.

The note also requires monthly interest payments at a rate of 16% on the unpaid principal payments.

On March 17, 2014, the Company entered into a forbearance agreement with the lender, which extended the maturity dates of all three of the above notes to February 6, 2015. Under the terms of the forbearance agreement, all unpaid interest and fees were added to the outstanding principal balance of Note 2. The agreement calls for monthly payments of $75,000 to be applied first to the accrued and unpaid interest due under the terms of the Notes, on a pro rata basis, and then to the principal balance of Note 2, and then to the principal balance of Note 1 and/or Note 3, based on the discretion of the lender.

On October 29, 2014, the Company paid off all of these three notes through refinancing as explained in Note 12.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The Company is actively executing on its business model which consists of delivery of consulting services in the targeted market segments. The nature of our model involves engaging employees and consultants to provide services to our customers with billing accrued and due in normal billing cycles. We incur debt to meet payroll obligations, the largest component of our expenses, and service debt with the payments received from our customers. Many of our employees and consultants are assisted in the immigration process which process is an expense component. The Company utilizes few major capital items in the delivery of its services and requires no significant plant expenses beyond ordinary commercial office space for both use by the employees on a limited basis and the back-office support for those employees. Our financial statements reflect primarily income from billing for our consulting services and expenses incurred to pay employees and consultants, including financing to meet payroll in anticipation of receipt of billing income from customers as well as general administration expenses to manage the Company.

Liquidity. The Company is continuing to expand its IT business operations through acquisitions and organic internal growth. Acquisitions of target company assets will require additional financing. Currently the Company anticipates that additional financing to fund these acquisitions of assets will be provided by sales of stock or borrowings. Also, the Company is exploring alternatives for its trade receivable factoring which carries a very high interest rate. Refinancing of this receivable factoring financing will reduce the Company’s interest expenses thereby increasing the Company’s liquidity position.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

A summary of significant accounting policies is included in Note 3 to the unaudited financial statements included elsewhere in this Report and in Note 2 to the financial statements included in our Annual Report filed under Form 10-K for the year ending December 31, 2013. We believe that the application of these policies on a consistent basis enables us to provide useful and reliable financial information about our operating results and financial condition. The following are a summary of the significant accounting estimates and policies that we believe are most critical to aid in fully understanding and evaluating our reported financial results.

Critical Accounting Estimates and Policies

General

The Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, which require management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, net revenue and expenses, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Senior management has discussed the development, selection and disclosure of these estimates with the audit committee of our Board of Directors.

An accounting policy is deemed to be critical if it requires an accounting estimate to be made based on assumptions about matters that are highly uncertain at the time the estimate is made, if different estimates reasonably could have been used, or if changes in the estimate that are reasonably likely to occur could materially impact the financial statements. Management believes the following critical accounting policies reflect the significant estimates and assumptions used in the preparation of the Consolidated Financial Statements.

A summary of significant accounting policies is included in Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Report. We believe that the application of these policies on a consistent basis enables us to provide useful and reliable financial information about our operating results and financial condition. The following are a summary of the significant accounting estimates and policies.

Estimates. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates. We have made estimates for doubtful accounts of accounts receivable, fair values of our customer lists and the estimated useful lives for the amortization of our customer lists. Management believes that the accounting estimates employed and the resulting balances are reasonable; however, actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. The most significant accounting estimates inherent in the preparation of our financial statements include estimates as to the value of customer lists and other intangible assets, values which are not readily apparent from other sources.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments. The Company considers the carrying amounts of financial instruments, including cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable and accrued expenses to approximate their fair values because of their relatively short maturities and notes payable.

Accounts and Unbilled Receivables. Accounts and unbilled receivables consist of amounts due from customers. The Company records a provision for doubtful receivables, if necessary, to allow for any amounts which may be unrecoverable, which is based upon an analysis of the Company’s prior collection experience, customer creditworthiness and current economic trends.

Intangible Assets. Intangible assets are recorded at fair value and amortized on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. The carrying value of intangible assets are reviewed for impairment by management at least annually or upon the occurrence of an event which may indicate that the carrying amount may be greater than its fair value. If impaired, the Company will write-down the intangible assets for such impairment. In addition, the useful life of the intangible assets will be evaluated by management at least annually or upon the occurrence of an event which may indicate that the useful life may have changed. Customer lists were valued based on management’s forecast of expected future net cash flows, with revenues based on projected revenues from customers acquired and are being amortized over five years.

Table of Contents

Revenue Recognition. Revenue is recognized when it has persuasive evidence of an arrangement, the fee is fixed and determinable, performance of service has occurred and collection is reasonably assured. Revenue is recognized in the period the services are provided.

Software Development Costs. Software development costs related to architecting, developing and testing large scale software platforms are capitalized. The capitalized costs are depreciated when these platforms begin delivering meaningful revenues.

Based on such evaluation, the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, respectively, have concluded that, as of the end of such period, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective.

Changes in internal control over financial reporting. There has been no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the 1934 Act) during the third quarter of fiscal 2014 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
