TABLE OF CONTENTS
PART I
ITEM 1. BUSINESS
Servidyne, Inc. (formerly Abrams Industries, Inc.) (i) provides comprehensive energy,
infrastructure and productivity
management solutions to owners and operators of commercial real estate; and (ii) engages in
commercial real estate
investment and development.
As used herein, the term Company refers to Servidyne, Inc. and its subsidiaries and predecessors,
unless the
context indicates otherwise, and the term Parent or Parent Company refers solely to Servidyne,
Inc.
The Company was organized under Delaware law in 1960 to succeed to the business of A. R. Abrams,
Inc., which was
founded in 1925 by Alfred R. Abrams as a sole proprietorship. In 1984, the Company changed its
state of incorporation
from Delaware to Georgia.
In July 2006, the Company changed its name from Abrams Industries, Inc. to Servidyne, Inc. The name
change was
effected in recognition of the Companys successful repositioning of its operating assets from its
prior low margin,
mature businesses in manufacturing and construction to its current status as a provider of
comprehensive building
performance expert services, which is producing higher profit margins and management believes
offers significant
growth potential. The Companys Energy and Facilities Solutions Segment has conducted business
under the name
Servidyne since the Companys acquisition of the assets of Servidyne Systems, Inc. in May 2001.
Since that time,
the Company has increasingly focused its attention and resources on providing the services offered
by that segment,
and the services offered through the Energy Services Segment, which was established by the
Companys December
2003 acquisition of the assets of The Wheatstone Energy Group, Inc. The Company believes that the
adoption of the
Servidyne name offers an opportunity to create a singular brand that better communicates the
Companys commitment
to its new market direction, and represents an opportunity for the Company to more aggressively
build market
awareness and differentiation than could be achieved with the Companys former name or its other
brands. Consequently,
the Company believes that Servidyne is a more appropriate corporate name at this time. The
Companys Real Estate
Segment will continue to conduct business under the names Abrams Properties, Inc. and AFC Real
Estate, Inc.
Further information on the businesses of the Companys operating segments is discussed below.
Financial information
for the segments is set forth in Note 14 to the consolidated financial statements of the Company.
The Company is
currently in the preliminary stages of combining the operations of the Energy and Facilities
Solutions Segment and the
Energy Services Segment to form a new integrated segment. As of April 30, 2006, however, the
Company is reporting
on the three existing segments, as discussed below.
ENERGY AND FACILITIES SOLUTIONS SEGMENT
The Energy and Facilities Solutions Segment historically has provided energy engineering services
and facility
management software applications to assist customers in optimizing facility performance and
reducing building
operating costs by lowering energy consumption, increasing work efficiency, extending equipment
life and
improving occupant satisfaction. The Companys engineering and analytical consulting services
include LEED®
building certification; energy surveys and audits; design and specification services; MEP due
diligence; energy savings
programs; utility monitoring and analysis; ENERGY STAR® labeling and benchmarking; building
commissioning;
and energy simulations and modeling. The Companys proprietary maintenance and service request
software
offerings include iTendant; WinSCORE®; SCORE®; Servidyne EnergyCheck®;
Servidyne Checkmate®; and Servidyne
Guest Services®.
These products and services have been combined to create a suite of new market based solutions sold
under the
building performance expert (BPE) brand. Within the Energy and Facilities Solutions Segment the
Companys Energy
BPE offering provides a comprehensive solution to help customers reduce energy usage and cost by
conducting
portfolio wide facility assessments, developing a cost reduction plan, implementing the required
saving initiatives,
improving the maintenance of energy consuming equipment and providing ongoing measurement and
program
management. The Company also provides a Productivity BPE offering within this segment that is
designed to help
customers improve the efficiency of their facility related workforce; major elements include an
assessment of the
customers current organization, the implementation of maintenance and service request software and
technical training.
The Energy and Facilities Solutions Segments customers are primarily building owners and operators
and energy
services companies in the hospitality, gaming, corporate commercial office, REIT and industrial
sectors. The primary
geographic focus for the business is the continental United States, although the Company does
business internationally
as well. Contracts for engineering, software and BPE solutions are primarily obtained through
negotiations, but may
also be obtained through competitive bids on larger proposals.
1
ENERGY SERVICES SEGMENT
The Energy Services Segment historically has provided turnkey implementation of energy saving
lighting programs and
other energy-related services that reduce energy consumption and operating costs to commercial,
industrial, retail,
government, education and institutional facilities. As a vendor-neutral company, the Company takes
an unbiased
approach to evaluating and implementing energy saving lighting programs and developing
recommendations of
cost-saving strategies. The Companys new Infrastructure BPE offering expands the scope of its
Energy Services
Segment to include the development of comprehensive capital planning and the execution of projects
to upgrade and
modernize lighting and mechanical systems.
The Energy Services Segment focuses its marketing and sales activities on national accounts, energy
services
companies, facility owners and owners agents throughout the United States. Services are mainly
obtained through
negotiations, but may also be obtained through competitive bids for large contracts.
REAL ESTATE SEGMENT
The Real Estate Segment has engaged in real estate activities since 1960. These activities
primarily involve the
acquisition, development, redevelopment, leasing, asset management, ownership, and sale of shopping
centers and
office buildings in the Southeast and Midwest. The Company uses third-party property managers and
leasing agents
for all of its multi-tenant properties and most of its leaseback properties. The Company conducts
such operations under
the name Abrams Properties, Inc. and AFC Real Estate, Inc.
The Company currently owns four shopping centers, two that it developed and two that it acquired,
including a shopping
center located in Smyrna, Tennessee, which the Company acquired in July 2006. The centers are held
as long-term
investments or will be marketed for sale, as the Company determines is appropriate. See ITEM 2.
PROPERTIESOwned Shopping Centers. The Company is also currently lessee and sublessor of four
Company-developed shopping
centers that were sold by and leased back to the Company, and then subleased to Kmart Corporation.
See ITEM 2.
PROPERTIESLeaseback Shopping Centers. During fiscal 2006, the Company sold its leasehold
interest in one such
property located in Bayonet Point, Florida. In addition, the Company owns two office properties.
See ITEM 2.
PROPERTIESOffice Buildings. In January 2006, the Company sold its professional medical office
building located in
Douglasville, Georgia, which the Company acquired in April 2004. The Company also owns a vacant
former manufacturing
and warehouse facility located in Atlanta, Georgia, and several parcels of vacant land. See ITEM
2. PROPERTIESReal Estate Held for Future Development, Lease, or Sale. In October 2005, the Company sold two
outparcels of land
located in North Fort Myers, Florida, at a gain. In December 2005, the Company sold a 4.7 acre
tract of land located in
Louisville, Kentucky, at a gain. In April 2006, the Company sold a 7.1 acre tract of land located
in North Fort Myers,
Florida, at a gain. In addition, the Company has entered into a contract to sell its former
manufacturing facility located
in Atlanta, Georgia, at a gain. The sale is subject to customary conditions, and there can be no
assurance that the
contract will close.
EMPLOYEES AND EMPLOYEE RELATIONS
At April 30, 2006, the Company employed 75 salaried employees and 4 hourly employees. The Company
believes that
its relations with its employees are good.
SEASONAL NATURE OF BUSINESS
The businesses of the Energy and Facilities Solutions, Energy Services, and Real Estate Segments
generally are not
seasonal. However, certain retail customers of the Energy Services Segment choose to delay energy
efficiency
projects during the peak winter holiday season.
COMPETITION
The industries in which the Company operates are highly competitive. The Energy and Facilities
Solutions Segments
competition is widespread and ranges from multi-national firms to local small businesses.
Competition in the Energy
Services Segment consists primarily of local and regional companies. The Real Estate Segment also
operates in a
competitive environment, with numerous parties competing for available properties, tenants,
financing, and investors.
PRINCIPAL CUSTOMERS
In fiscal 2006, the Company derived approximately 13% ($2,352,691) of its consolidated revenues
from continuing
operations from direct transactions with The Kmart Corporation. These revenues were derived
entirely from the Real
Estate Segment. The Company does not have any other customer that accounted for more than 10% of
the Companys
consolidated revenues and which the loss of would have a material adverse effect on the Company.
See Note 14 to the
consolidated financial statements of the Company for segment information.

(1) |
|
The increase in backlog is primarily due to a substantial increase in energy engineering
consulting contracts. Backlog includes
contracts that can be cancelled with less than one years notice, with the assumption that such
cancellation provisions will not be
invoked. The cancellation rate for such contracts in the previous twelve months was approximately
9%. |
|
(2) |
|
The decrease in backlog is primarily due to a consulting services contract that was included in
prior year, fiscal 2005. |
|
(3) |
|
The decrease in backlog is primarily due to the absence of rental revenues from the Companys
former leaseback interest in a
shopping center in Bayonet Point, Florida, which interest was sold at a gain in April 2006. |
The Company estimates that most of the backlog at April 30, 2006, will be completed prior to
April 30, 2007. No
assurance can be given as to future backlog levels or whether the Company will realize earnings
from revenues resulting
from the backlog at April 30, 2006.
REGULATION
The Company is subject to the authority of various federal, state and local regulatory agencies
including, among others,
the Occupational Safety and Health Administration and the Environmental Protection Agency. The
Company is also
subject to local zoning regulations and building codes. Management believes that it is in
substantial compliance with
all governmental regulations. Management believes that the Companys compliance with federal, state
and local
provisions, which have been enacted or adopted for regulating the discharge of materials into the
environment, has no
material adverse effect upon the capital expenditures, earnings, or competitive position of the
Company.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
The following factors, together with other matters described in this Annual Report on Form
10-K, should be considered
in evaluating the Company. Any of the following potential risks, if actually realized, could result
in a materially negative
impact to the Companys business and financial results. In such an event, the trading price of the
stock could decline.
The Companys business depends on the success of its relatively new building performance, energy
and
facilities services offerings. If the Company fails to develop these lines of business, its
prospects will be
adversely affected.
In the past several years, the Company has undergone a fundamental change in its primary focus by
transitioning away
from manufacturing and commercial construction to its current position as a provider of energy,
infrastructure and
facility services to commercial real estate owners and operators, through the Energy and Facilities
Solutions and
Energy Services Segments. While the Real Estate Segment is still an important contributor to the
Companys revenues,
earnings and cash flows, it is not a primary element of the Companys growth strategy. The Company
intends to
dedicate most of its future capital resources and management attention to the development of the
Energy and Facilities
Solutions and Energy Services Segments.
These relatively new segments differ in some substantial ways from the Companys now-discontinued
manufacturing
and commercial construction businesses and from the Companys ongoing real estate business. For
instance, several
important offerings of the Energy and Facilities Solutions Segment are information technology
(IT) oriented, which
represents a departure from the Companys legacy businesses.
The Companys ability to implement the growth strategy will depend upon a variety of factors that
are not entirely
within its control, including:
|
|
|
the ability to develop new products and services for the Energy and Facilities Solutions and
Energy Services
Segments, and the ability to keep current products and services competitive; |
|
|
|
|
the ability to make profitable acquisitions and the ability to integrate them into existing
operations; |
|
|
|
|
hiring, training and retention of qualified personnel; |
|
|
|
|
the establishment of new relationships or expansion of existing relationships with customers and
suppliers; and |
|
|
|
|
the availability of capital. |
To date, these new segments have not contributed substantially to the companys net earningsin
fact, the Energy
and Facilities Solutions Segment has yet to achieve and sustain profitability. In the light of the
relative newness of the
Energy and Facilities Solutions and Energy Services Segments to the Company as an institution, and
the absence of a
proven track record of profitability, the Company cannot guarantee that its growth strategy will be
successful. If the
Companys growth strategy were unsuccessful, its revenues, earnings, stock price, and the Company
as a whole could
be adversely affected.
The Company is redeploying a portion of its capital previously invested in the Real Estate Segment
to develop
the Energy and Facilities Solutions and Energy Services Segments. The Company cannot guarantee that
the
return on investing these resources in the new segments, if any, will exceed the return that might
otherwise be
achievable from the Real Estate Segment.
The Company intends to dedicate the majority of its future capital resources to the development of
the Energy and
Facilities Solutions and Energy Services Segments rather than to the Real Estate Segment, which the
Company is not
looking to as a principal source of growth. Over the past several years, the Company has redeployed
capital previously
invested in the Real Estate Segment (primarily through the sale of commercial properties) to the
Energy and Facilities
Solutions and Energy Services Segments.
As noted previously, the new segments do not have a proven track record of profitability, in
contrast to the Real Estate
Segment, which has historically been profitable and has been the primary source of net earnings to
the Company in
recent years. Accordingly, the Company cannot guarantee that the return on its investment in the
new segments, if any,
will compare favorably to the results that might be achievable if the Company were to reinvest its
capital resources
entirely in the Real Estate Segment (or any other line of business).
4
PART I (continued)
If the Companys efforts to grow the Energy and Facilities Solutions and Energy Services
Segments fail, the investment
of these resources could be lost, which could have a material adverse effect on the Companys
financial position.
In recent years, net earnings have been driven significantly by gains from the sale of commercial
properties.
Without such gains, the Company might not be profitable in the
future.
The Companys net earnings in recent years have been driven primarily by significant gains from
sales of commercial
properties. Although some of the proceeds of these sales have been invested in new properties, some
of the net
proceeds from these sales also have been redeployed to the Energy and Facilities Solutions and
Energy Services
Segments. Other proceeds have been distributed to shareholders as dividends. In recent years the
Companys real
estate dispositions have exceeded its acquisitions, and in light of the Companys focus on the
Energy and Facilities
Solutions and Energy Services Segments, the Company anticipates that this trend is likely to
continue. Consequently,
real estate gains cannot be depended upon for the Companys long-term profitability.
Because of these factors, the Companys net earnings in the future, unlike its net earnings over
the past several years,
will likely not result primarily from real estate dispositions. In addition, to the extent that the
proceeds from real estate
dispositions are not redeployed in acquiring new income producing properties, another source of
earningsrental
incomewill be negatively impacted. Accordingly, in order for the Company to maintain or improve
its net earnings
in the future, the Energy and Facilities Solutions and Energy Services Segments will have to be
expanded. There can
be no guarantee, however, that these segments will be able to produce net earnings, if any,
sufficient to match the
contribution to the Companys profitability that have resulted from the real estate gains in the
past several years,
particularly in light of the new segments lack of a consistent track record of sustained
profitability.
If the Company cannot find suitable acquisition candidates, or integrate completed acquisitions
successfully,
its prospects could be adversely affected.
The Companys strategy includes growth by acquisitions. The Companys Energy and Facilities
Solutions and Energy
Services Segments, upon which the Company is dedicating most of its resources and attention, were
both established
by acquisitions within the past several years. The Company may compete for acquisition
opportunities with other
companies that have significantly greater financial resources. Therefore, there is a risk that the
Company may be unable
to complete an acquisition that it believes could be important to its growth strategy, because
another company may be
able to pay more for a potential acquisition candidate or may be able to use its financial
resources to acquire a potential
acquisition candidate before the Company is able to obtain financing.
Even if the Company completes a desirable acquisition on favorable terms, the Company may not be
able to successfully
integrate on a timely basis the newly-acquired companies into existing operations. Integration of a
substantial business
is a challenging, time-consuming and costly process. It is possible that the acquisition itself or
the integration process
could result in the loss of the management of the acquired company or other key employees, the
disruption of the
acquired companys business, or inconsistencies in standards, controls, procedures and policies
that could adversely
affect its ability to maintain relationships with suppliers, customers and employees.
In addition, successful integration of an acquired company requires the dedication of significant
management resources
that may temporarily detract attention from the Companys and the acquired companys day-to-day
business. If
management is not able to integrate the organizations, operations and systems of acquired companies
in a timely and
efficient manner, the anticipated benefits of a completed acquisition may not be fully realized.
The Company may not be able to raise the additional capital necessary to implement its growth
strategy.
In order to develop the new businesses, the Company anticipates having to continue to make
expenditures in
connection with the development of new products and services offered by the Energy and Facilities
Solutions
and Energy Services Segments and in connection with the potential future acquisitions of other
companies. Although
the Company believes it has sufficient resources to finance these expenditures, at some point there
may be a
requirement to seek additional sources of financing. The Company cannot always predict the amount
of its expenditures
in connection with developing its new businesses, because opportunities for implementing it,
particularly in the case of
acquisitions, arise unexpectedly. If a future acquisition opportunity were to arise, the Company
would be required to
evaluate the sources of financing then available, which might be limited on short notice, and the
terms of the financing
available at the time. If the Company could not find financing on acceptable terms, it might be
unable to make such
acquisition. Moreover, the Company cannot guarantee that financing would be available on acceptable
terms, if at all,
if such needs were to arise.
5
If the Company implements its growth strategy, but is unable to manage its growth, the
Companys sales and
profitability might be adversely affected.
The growth of the Energy and Facilities Solutions and Energy Services Segments might place
additional demands on
the Companys administrative, operational and financial resources, and might increase the demands
on the Companys
financial systems and controls. The Companys ability to manage its growth successfully may require
the Company to
continue to improve and expand these resources, systems and controls. If the Company were unable to
efficiently
manage its growth, the Company might not be able to produce optimal financial or operational
results, even if the
Company were successful in growing the Energy and Facilities Solutions and Energy Services
Segments. Difficulties
that can arise when business growth outstrips the ability to manage the business include customer
service or product
delivery delays and resultant loss of customers, higher personnel turnover, the foregoing of
business opportunities due
to lack of resources, and other potential negative effects. Rapidly growing businesses frequently
outpace a companys
ability to optimally manage such growth, due in large part to the reluctance to add the overhead
costs of additional
administrative personnel and resources before meaningful sales growth is achieved.
The Company is dependent upon key personnel, the loss of any of whom could adversely impair the
Companys
ability to conduct its business. In addition, the development of the Companys new businesses will
require the
addition of suitable personnel.
One of the Companys objectives is to develop and maintain a strong management group at all levels.
At any given
time, the Company could lose the services of key executives and other employees. None of the key
executives or other
key employees is currently subject to employment agreements or contracts. The loss of services of
any key employees
could have an adverse impact upon the Companys results of operations, financial condition, and
managements ability
to execute its business strategy. If the Company were to lose a member of its senior management
team, the Company
might be required to incur significant costs in identifying, hiring and retaining a replacement for
the departing executive.
In addition, the growth of the Energy and Facilities Solutions and Energy Services Segments will
require the addition
of qualified personnel. Some of the offerings of these segments, such as energy engineering and the
IT-oriented
products and services, may require personnel with special skills who are in high demand in the
marketplace for human
resources. The Company competes for such personnel with some companies with much greater resources.
Accordingly,
the Company may not be able to attract and hire such personnel, or retain them in the face of
better offers from
larger competitors.
The Company is subject to changing regulations regarding corporate governance and required public
disclosure
that have increased both the costs of compliance and the risks of noncompliance. As a smaller
public company,
these costs of compliance may affect the Company disproportionately as compared with larger
competitors.
As a public company, the Company is subject to rules and regulations by various governing bodies,
including the
Securities and Exchange Commission, NASDAQ and Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, which are
charged
with the protection of investors and the oversight of companies whose securities are publicly
traded. The Companys
efforts to comply with these new regulations, most notably the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, or SOX may
result in increased
general and administrative expenses and a diversion of management time and attention from
revenue-generating
activities to compliance activities.
The Company is required to comply with the SOX requirements involving the assessment of its
internal controls
over financial reporting, and the SOX requirement for the Companys independent public accountants
to audit that
assessment is currently expected to be applicable to the Company for the fiscal year ending April
30, 2008. The efforts
to comply with the SOX requirements will require the commitment of significant financial and
personnel resources.
In addition, because these laws, regulations and standards are subject to varying interpretations,
their application in
practice may evolve over time as new guidance becomes available. This evolution may result in
continuing uncertainty
regarding compliance matters, and additional costs necessitated by ongoing revisions to the
Companys disclosure and
governance practices. If the Company fails to address and comply with these regulations and any
subsequent changes,
the business may be adversely impacted.
Moreover, many of the costs of SOX and similar compliance are not in direct proportion to the size
of a particular
company. As a smaller public company, these costs might consequently affect the Company
disproportionately,
particularly in comparison to its larger public competitors. The Company may also be at a
disadvantage vis-à-vis public
company compliance costs compared with its privately held competitors, who are not subject to such
regulations.

PART I (continued)
RISKS RELATED TO THE COMPANYS REAL ESTATE SEGMENT
The Companys ownership of commercial real estate involves a number of risks, including general
economic and
market risks, leasing risk, uninsured losses and condemnation costs, environmental issues, and
concentration of real
estate, the effects of which could adversely affect the Companys business.
General economic and market risks. The Companys assets might not generate income sufficient to pay
expenses, service debt and maintain its real estate properties. Several factors may adversely affect the
economic performance
and value of the properties. These factors include, among other things:
|
|
|
Changes in the national, regional and local economic climate; |
|
|
|
|
Local conditions such as an oversupply of properties or a reduction in demand for properties; |
|
|
|
|
The attractiveness of the properties to tenants; |
|
|
|
|
Competition from other available properties; |
|
|
|
|
Changes in market rental rates; and |
|
|
|
|
The need to periodically repair, renovate and re-lease space. |
The Companys performance also depends on the ability to collect rent and expense reimbursements
from tenants and
to pay for adequate maintenance, insurance and other operating costs (including real estate taxes),
which could increase
over time. Also, the expenses of owning and operating a property are not necessarily reduced when
circumstances
such as market factors and competition cause a reduction in income from the property. If a property
is mortgaged and
the Company were unable to meet the mortgage payments, the lender could foreclose on the mortgage
and take the
property. In addition, interest rate levels, the availability of financing, changes in laws and
governmental regulations
(including those governing usage, zoning and taxes), and financial distress or bankruptcies of
tenants could adversely
affect the Companys financial condition.
Leasing risk. Operating revenues in the Real Estate Segment are dependent upon entering into leases
with, and
collecting rents from, tenants. National, regional and local economic conditions might adversely
impact tenants and
potential tenants in the various marketplaces in which the Companys properties are located, and
accordingly, could
affect such tenants ability to continue to pay rents and possibly to continue to operate in their
leased space. Tenants
sometimes experience bankruptcies, and pursuant to the various bankruptcy laws, leases may be
rejected and thereby
terminated. When leases expire or are terminated, replacement tenants may or may not be available
upon acceptable
terms and conditions. In addition, the Companys cash flows and results of operations could be
adversely impacted if
existing leases were to expire or were terminated, and at such time, market rental rates were lower
than the previous
contractual rental rates.
Uninsured losses and condemnation costs. Accidents, flooding and other losses at the Companys
properties could
materially adversely affect the Companys operating results. Casualties may occur that
significantly damage an operating
property, and insurance proceeds may be materially less than the total loss incurred by the
Company. Property
ownership also involves potential liability to third parties for such matters as personal injuries
occurring on the property.
The Company, however, maintains casualty and general liability insurance under policies that
management believes to
be customary and appropriate. In addition to uninsured losses, various government authorities may
condemn all or
parts of operating properties. Such condemnations could adversely affect the commercial viability
of such properties.
Environmental issues. Environmental issues that could arise at the Companys properties could have
an adverse effect
on the Companys financial condition and results of operations. Federal, state and local laws and
regulations relating to
the protection of the environment may require a current or previous owner or operator of real
estate to investigate and
clean up hazardous or toxic substances or petroleum product releases at a property. The property
owner or operator
might have to pay a governmental entity or third parties for property damage, and for investigation
and clean-up costs
incurred by such parties in connection with the contamination. These laws typically impose clean-up
responsibility
and liability without regard to whether the owner or operator previously knew of or caused the
presence of the
contaminants. Even if more than one person might have been responsible for the contamination, each
person covered
by the environmental laws might be held responsible for all of the clean-up costs incurred. In
addition, third parties
might sue the owner or operator of a site for damages and costs resulting from environmental
contamination emanating
from that site. Currently, the Company is not aware of any environmental liabilities at its
properties that it believes
would have a material adverse effect on its business, assets, financial condition or results of
operations. Unidentified
environmental liabilities could arise, however, and could have an adverse effect on the Companys
financial condition
and results of operations.
7
Any failure to sell income-producing properties on a timely basis could adversely affect the
Companys results
of operations.
The Companys Real Estate Segment typically holds real estate assets until such time as it believes
to be optimal to
sell them. Normally, this will be during relatively strong real estate markets. However, factors
beyond the Companys
control could make it necessary for the Company to dispose of real estate properties during weak
markets. Following
a period when the market values of the Companys assets had fallen significantly, the Company could
be required
to sell assets at a time when it may be inopportune to do so. Further, markets for real estate
assets are not usually
highly liquid, which can make it particularly difficult to realize acceptable prices when disposing
of assets during
weak markets.
The Company might not be able to refinance its income-producing properties on a timely basis or on
acceptable terms.
The Company may incur debt from time to time to finance acquisitions, capital expenditures or for
other purposes. A
propertys current leasing status, physical condition or net operating income, global, national,
regional or local economic
conditions, financial market conditions and the level of capital available in real estate markets,
the level of the Companys
total liabilities relative to its equity, the terms and conditions of or status of the Companys
other real estate or corporate
loans, or other prior financial commitments could impair the Companys ability to refinance real
estate properties at the
times when such refinancing might be necessary. Moreover, such refinancing might not be available
upon acceptable
terms, including with respect to interest rates or maturities.
RISKS RELATED TO THE ENERGY AND FACILITIES SOLUTIONS AND ENERGY SERVICES SEGMENTS
Failure
to adequately expand the Companys sales force may impede its growth.
The Energy and Facilities Solutions and Energy Services Segments are dependent on its direct sales
force to obtain
new customers, particularly large enterprise customers, and to manage its customer base. The
Company believes that
there is significant competition for sales personnel with the advanced sales skills and technical
knowledge the Company
needs. The Energy and Facilities Solutions and Energy Services Segments ability to achieve
significant growth in
revenue from building performance services in the future will depend, in large part, on the
Companys success in
recruiting, training and retaining sufficient numbers of sales personnel.
New hires require significant training. The Companys recent hires and planned hires might not turn
out to be as
productive as the Company would like, and the Company might be unable to hire a sufficient number
of qualified
individuals in the future in the markets where the Company conducts or desires to conduct business.
If the Company
were unable to hire and develop a sufficient number of productive sales personnel, sales of the
Energy and Facilities
Solutions and Energy Services Segments building performance services could be adversely impacted,
and as a result,
the Companys growth could be impeded.
As more of the Companys sales efforts are targeted at larger enterprise customers, its sales cycle
may become
more time-consuming and expensive, the Company may encounter pricing pressure and implementation
challenges, and the Company may have to delay revenue recognition on these customers, all of which
could
harm the Companys business.
The Energy and Facilities Solutions and Energy Services Segments are concentrating more regularly
on larger enterprise
customers. As the Company targets more of these customers, the Company anticipates facing greater
selling costs,
longer sales cycles, and less predictability in completing some of its sales. In this market
segment, the customers
decision to use the Companys building performance products and services may be an enterprise-wide
decision, and if
so, these types of sales would require the Company to provide greater levels of education to
prospective customers
regarding the use and benefits of its building performance products and services. In addition,
larger customers may
demand more customization, integration services and features. As a result of these factors, these
sales opportunities
may require the Company to devote greater sales support and professional services resources to
individual customers,
driving up the costs and time required to complete sales and diverting selling and professional
services resources to a
smaller number of larger transactions, while at the same time requiring the Company to delay
revenue recognition
on some of these transactions until the technical or implementation requirements have been met. In
addition, larger
enterprise customers may seek volume discounts and price concessions that could make these
transactions less
profitable. Because of these factors, the risk of not completing a sale to a larger enterprise
customer can be greater
than with smaller customers, and the results of such failure, due to higher costs and fewer overall
ongoing sales
initiatives, can be also be greater. Moreover, the bargaining power of larger enterprise customers
may result in lower
margins on completed sales.
8
PART I (continued)
The value to customers of the various energy efficiency products and services offered by the
Companys Energy
and Facilities Solutions Segment and Energy Services Segment is substantially impacted by the
prevailing
market prices of energy; if these prices were to decline, sales of the Companys energy efficiency
products and
service offerings might not grow, or could even decline.
Many of the product and service offerings of the Companys Energy and Facilities Solutions Segment
and Energy
Services Segment are energy efficiency offerings. The financial value to customers for installing
energy efficiency
products and services is measured by the savings in energy costs to be realized over time.
Accordingly, the return on
the customers investment for installing energy efficient products and services and the time period
necessary for
customers to recoup the initial investment required for these products and services correlate
directly with the prevailing
market prices for energy. If the energy prices were to drop, the customers energy savings and
returns on investment
in energy efficiency products and services would be less, as the time period over which the
investment could be
recovered through savings on energy costs would be extended. If energy prices were to decline,
demand for energy
efficiency products and services could decline as a result, as potential customers are dissuaded
from an upfront
investment that may not produce as attractive a return for some time. Consequently, any decline in
energy prices likely
will translate into fewer sales for the Companys energy efficiency offerings.
The Company may be subject to potential liabilities as a result of construction or design defects,
product
liability, or warranty claims made.
The Companys Energy Services Segment, and engineering services offered by its Energy and
Facilities Solutions
Segment, involve construction and design services. The Company consequently may be subject to
liability for
construction or design defects, product liability and warranty claims arising in the ordinary
course of business. The
costs of insurance offering protection against such claims, if such insurance coverage is available
for purchase, may be
prohibitive, and the amount and scope of such coverage offered by insurance companies, if any, may
be limited.
Uninsured judgments against the Company may negatively affect its financial position. Even if the
Company prevails in
defending construction and design defect claims against the Company, or if successful claims are
covered by insurance,
its reputation may be harmed.
A portion of the Companys revenues are derived from fixed price contracts, which could result in
losses
on contracts.
A substantial portion of the Energy Services Segments revenues and current backlog is based on
fixed price or
fixed unit price contracts that involve risks relating to the Companys potential responsibility
for the increased costs of
performance under such a contract. Generally, under fixed price or fixed unit price contracts, any
increase in the
Companys unit cost not caused by a modification or compensable change to the original contract,
whether due to
inflation, inefficiency, faulty estimates or other factors, is absorbed by the Company. There are a
number of other
factors that could create differences in contract performance, as compared to the original contract
estimate, including,
among other things, differing site conditions, availability of skilled labor in a particular
geographic location, availability of
materials and abnormal weather conditions.
The Company is largely dependent on the continued availability and satisfactory performance of its
subcontractors, whose potential unavailability or unsatisfactory performance could have a material
adverse
effect on the Companys business.
The Company often utilizes unaffiliated third-party subcontractors in order to perform some of its
energy engineering
and consulting services, much of its lighting and mechanical systems maintenance, installation and
retrofit projects,
and most of its other construction-related projects and services. As a consequence, the Company
depends on the
continuing availability of and satisfactory performance by such subcontractors. There may not be
sufficient availability
of such subcontractors in the markets in which the Company operates, or the quality of work by such
subcontractors
may prove to be below acceptable standards. In addition, the subcontractors may be unable to
qualify for payment and
performance bonds to insure their performance, or may be otherwise inadequately capitalized.
Insurance coverage,
if any, available to the subcontractors for construction defects is increasingly expensive and may
become unavailable,
and the scope of such coverage is or may become greatly restricted. If as a result of such
subcontractor problems or
failures, the Company were unable to meet its contractual obligations to its customers or were
unable to successfully
recover sufficient indemnity from its subcontractors or their bond or insurance carriers, the
Company could suffer
losses which could decrease its net income, damage its customer relations, significantly harm its
reputation, and
otherwise have a material adverse effect on its business.
The Company could be exposed to environmental liability related to the disposal of hazardous
materials.
A key service offering of the Companys Energy Services Segment is replacing older existing
lighting systems in
commercial, industrial and other types of facilities with newer energy efficient lighting systems.
The removal of old
lighting systems can often involve the removal, handling and disposal of hazardous materials. As
noted previously,
9
various federal, state and local laws govern the handling of hazardous materials. Compliance
with these regulations can be costly. If the Company were to fail to comply, it could face
liability from government authorities or other third parties. Even in cases where the Company
subcontracts the disposal of such materials, the Company could face exposure. Not only could
judgments, fines or similar penalties for environmental noncompliance negatively affect the
Companys financial position, the reputation of the Energy Services Segment, and the Companys
other businesses, could be harmed as well.
If the Companys new comprehensive energy, infrastructure and productivity management Application
Software Provider (ASP) offerings are not widely accepted, the Companys operating results could
be harmed.
The Energy and Facilities Solutions Segment derives a significant portion of its revenue from
building performance software applications. The latest iterations of its building performance
software are primarily ASP-based solutions, whereby the Company operates the software at its data
center, and customers access their data and reports on the Web. This contrasts with previous
versions of the Companys work order management software, which typically were installed on
customers own computers. Future sales in the Energy and Facilities Solutions Segment may be
substantially dependent on this new product offering.
Factors that might affect market acceptance of the Companys ASP solution include:
|
|
|
reluctance by enterprises to migrate to an ASP product from more traditional products in
which the software and related data is hosted and controlled locally by the customer; |
|
|
|
|
the price and performance
of the Companys ASP offering; |
|
|
|
|
the level of customization the Company can offer; |
|
|
|
|
potential adverse publicity about the Company, its service or the viability, reliability or
security of ASP products generally from third party reviews, industry analyst reports or
adverse statements made by competitors. |
Many of these factors are beyond the Companys control. If the Companys ASP offerings were to fail
to achieve widespread market acceptance, the Companys business could be harmed.
Defects or disruptions in the Companys comprehensive energy, infrastructure and productivity
management software solutions could diminish demand for these offerings and could potentially
subject the Company to substantial liability.
Because the Companys comprehensive energy, infrastructure and productivity management software
solutions, including the new ASP offerings, are complex, and because the Company has incorporated
into these offerings a variety of new computer hardware and software, both developed in-house and
acquired/licensed from third party vendors, the offerings might have errors or defects that users
could identify after they begin using these services, which could result in unanticipated downtime
for the Companys customers and harm to the Companys reputation and business.
The Company has from time to time found previously undetected defects in its software offerings,
and new errors may be detected in existing offerings in the future. In addition, the Companys
customers may use the software solutions in unanticipated ways that may cause a disruption in
service or damage or loss of their data. With respect to the Companys new ASP offerings in
particular, misuse by customers might result in a loss of service for other customers attempting to
access their data. The Companys new ASP solutions are Internet-based, and Internet-based services
frequently contain undetected errors when first introduced or when new versions or enhancements are
released.
Since the Companys customers use the Companys software solutions for important aspects of their
business, any errors, defects, disruptions in service, data loss or other performance problems with
the offerings could hurt the Companys reputation and could damage its customers businesses. In
such an event, customers could elect not to renew, or delay, or withhold payment to the Company,
the Company could lose future sales or customers might make warranty claims against the Company,
which could result in an increase in the provision for doubtful accounts, an increase in collection
cycles for accounts receivable, or the expense and risk of litigation.
If the Company were unable to develop enhancements and new features for the Energy and Facilities
Solutions and Energy Services Segments existing products and services, or were unable to develop
acceptable new products and services that kept pace with technological developments, the Companys
business might be harmed.
The reputations of the Companys relatively new Energy and Facilities Solutions and Energy Services
Segments depend significantly upon the Company maintaining a reputation for technological prowess.
Consequently, the product and service offerings from these segments must continue be up-to-date
technologically. The success of enhancements and new features to existing offerings, and of new
products and services, such as the Companys energy, infrastructure and productivity management ASP
offerings, depends on several factors, including the timely completion, introduction and market
acceptance of the feature or edition. Failure in this regard may significantly impair revenue
growth.
10
PART I (continued)
In addition, because the ASP offerings are designed to operate on a variety of network hardware and
software platforms using a standard browser, the Company will need to continuously modify and
enhance these offerings to keep pace with changes in Internet-related hardware, software,
communication, browser and database technologies. The Company might not be successful in either
developing these modifications and enhancements or in timely bringing them to market. Furthermore,
uncertainties about the timing and nature of new network platforms or technologies, or
modifications to existing platforms or technologies, could increase the Companys research and
development expenses. Any failure of any of the Companys products and services to operate
effectively with future network platforms and technologies could reduce the demand for the
Companys products and services, and result in customer dissatisfaction and harm to the business.
If the Companys security measures are breached and unauthorized access is obtained to a customers
data, the offerings of the Energy and Facilities Solutions and Energy Services Segments may be
perceived as not being secure, customers may curtail or stop using the Companys products and
services, and the Company could incur significant liabilities.
The Companys energy, infrastructure and productivity management software offerings involve the
storage of customers data and information, whether locally on the customers own computers, or on
the Companys computers in the case of the Companys new ASP offerings and one of its older legacy
products, and the transmission of such information in the case of the ASP and legacy products.
Security breaches could expose the Company to a risk of loss of this data and information,
litigation and possible liability. If security measures were breached as a result of third-party
action, employee error, malfeasance or otherwise, during transfer of data and information to data
centers or at any time, and, as a result, someone were to obtain unauthorized access to any
customers data and information, the Companys reputation might be damaged, its business might
suffer and it might incur significant liability. Because techniques used to obtain unauthorized
access or to sabotage systems change frequently and generally are not recognized until launched
against a target, the Company might be unable to anticipate these techniques or to implement
adequate preventative measures. If an actual or perceived breach of the security were to occur, the
market perception of the effectiveness of the Companys security measures could be harmed and the
Company could lose sales and customers.
Any failure to protect the Companys intellectual property rights could impair the Companys
ability to protect proprietary technology and its brand.
If the Company fails to protect its intellectual property rights adequately, particularly for the
Companys software products and services, competitors might gain access to the Companys
technology, and the Companys business could be harmed. In addition, defending the Companys
intellectual property rights might entail significant expense. Any of the Companys intellectual
property rights may be challenged by others or invalidated through administrative process or
litigation.
Currently, the Company has no issued patents and may be unable to obtain patent protection for its
technology. In addition, if any patents were issued in the future, they might not provide the
Company with any competitive advantages, or may be successfully challenged by third parties.
Furthermore, legal standards relating to the validity, enforceability and scope of protection of
intellectual property rights are uncertain.
Effective patent, trademark, copyright and trade secret protection may not be available to the
Company in every country in which its service is available. The laws of some foreign countries may
not be as protective of intellectual property rights as those in the U.S., and mechanisms for
enforcement of intellectual property rights may be inadequate. Accordingly, despite the Companys
efforts, the Company might be unable to prevent third parties from infringing upon or
misappropriating its intellectual property.
The Company might be required to spend significant resources to monitor and protect its
intellectual property rights. The Company might initiate claims or litigation against third parties
for infringement of the Companys proprietary rights or to establish the validity of the Companys
proprietary rights. Any litigation, whether or not it is resolved in the Companys favor, could
result in significant expense to the Company and divert the efforts of the Companys technical and
management personnel.
Because the Company recognizes revenue from its new ASP offerings over the term of customers
subscription agreements, downturns or upturns in sales may not be immediately reflected in the
Companys operating results.
For the Companys new ASP offerings, the Company generally recognizes
revenue from customers ratably over the terms of their subscription agreements, which are typically
12 to 24 months, although terms can range from one to 60 months. As a result, a significant portion
of the revenue the Companys Energy and Facilities Solutions Segment reports in each quarter is
deferred revenue from subscription agreements entered into during previous quarters. Consequently,
a decline in new or renewed subscriptions in any one quarter would not necessarily be fully
reflected in
11
the revenue in that quarter, but could negatively affect revenue in future quarters. In addition,
the Company might be unable to adjust its cost structure to reflect these reduced revenues.
Accordingly, the effect of significant downturns in sales and market acceptance of the Companys
ASP offerings might not be fully reflected in the Companys results of operations until future
periods. The Companys subscription model also makes it difficult to rapidly increase revenue
simply because of additional sales of the Companys ASP offerings in any period, as revenue from
the ASP offerings from new customers must be recognized over the applicable subscription term.
Evolving regulation of the Internet may affect the Company adversely.
As Internet commerce continues to evolve, increasing regulation by federal, state or foreign
agencies becomes more likely. For example, the Company believes increased regulation is likely in
the area of data privacy, and laws and regulations applying to the solicitation, collection,
processing or use of personal or consumer information could affect customers ability to use and
share data, potentially reducing demand for ASP solutions in which data is processed by third
parties, and restricting the Companys ability to store, process and share data with its customers.
In addition, taxation of services provided over the Internet, or other charges imposed by
government agencies or by private organizations for accessing the Internet, might also be imposed.
Any regulation imposing greater fees for Internet use or restricting information exchange over the
Internet could result in a decline in the use of the Internet and the viability of Internet-based
services, which could harm the Companys ASP products and services.
ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS
None.
ITEM 2. PROPERTIES
The Company, through its Real Estate Segment, owns its corporate headquarters building, which
contains approximately 65,880 square feet of leasable office space. The building is located in the

With the exception of the Kmart lease in Columbus, Georgia, and the Harbor Freight Tools lease in
Jacksonville, Florida, all of the anchor tenant leases and some of the small shop leases provide
for contingent rentals if sales generated by the respective tenant in the leased space exceed
specified predetermined amounts. In some cases, contingent rentals are subject to certain rights of
offset for the amounts that ad valorem taxes may exceed specified predetermined amounts. In fiscal
2006, the Company did not recognize any amounts in contingent rent from owned shopping centers.
Typically, tenants are responsible for their pro rata share of ad valorem taxes (subject to the
rights of offset against contingent rents mentioned above), insurance and common area maintenance
costs. Kmart, under its lease, has total responsibility for maintenance, insurance and taxes for
the centers in Morton, Illinois, and Columbus, Georgia.
OWNED OFFICE PROPERTIES

The Companys corporate headquarters building of which the Company leases approximately 25,928
square feet. Rental income includes $540,155 of intercompany rent at a competitive rate paid by the
Company and its operating segments. The building was originally developed by third parties in 1974
and acquired and re-developed by the Company in 1997. |
|
(4) |
|
The Company, through a subsidiary of its Real Estate Segment, is the lessee of 5,304 square
feet of space, under a master lease agreement to satisfy a condition required by the lender. As a
result, as of April 30, 2006, rental income includes $27,033 of intercompany rent at a competitive
rate paid by the Real Estate Segment. The office park was originally developed by third parties in
1980 and 1985. |

LEASEBACK SHOPPING CENTERS
The Company, through its Real Estate Segment, has a leasehold interest in four shopping centers
that it developed, sold to unrelated third parties, and leased back from such parties under leases
currently expiring from years 2007 to 2014. Each of the centers is subleased by the Company
entirely to Kmart Corporation. The Kmart subleases each provide for contingent rentals if sales
exceed specified predetermined amounts. The Davenport, Iowa, and Richfield, Minnesota, properties
have nine remaining five-year renewal options, and the Jacksonville, Florida, and Orange Park,
Florida, properties have eight remaining five-year renewal options. The Companys leases with the
fee owners each contain renewal options coextensive with Kmarts renewal options on the subleases.
Kmart, under its sublease, is responsible for insurance and ad valorem taxes, but has the right to
offset against contingent rentals for any ad valorem taxes paid in excess of specified amounts. In
fiscal 2006, the Company recognized $27,235 in contingent rentals, net of offsets, from leaseback
shopping centers, which amounts are included in the aggregate annual rentals set forth below. The
Company is responsible for structural and roof maintenance of the centers. The Company is also
responsible for underground utilities, parking lots and driveways, except for routine upkeep, which
is the responsibility of the subtenant, Kmart. The Companys leases contain exculpatory provisions,
which limit the Companys liability for payments to its interest in the respective leases.
The following chart provides certain information relating to the leaseback shopping centers:

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
INTRODUCTION
The Company is organized into three operating segments: Energy and Facilities Solutions, Energy
Services, and Real Estate. The Company continues to seek to add new service offerings, and is
pursuing this strategy partially through potential acquisitions.
The Company also formerly provided commercial construction services as a general contractor and
reported an additional segment, Construction. The Company made the decision to discontinue its
operations as a general contractor in fiscal 2004. In accordance with Statement of Financial
Accounting Standard (SFAS) 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets,
the Construction Segment has been reclassified as a discontinued operation and is no longer
reported as a separate operating segment. All amounts in this Annual Report on Form 10-K have been
restated so they are consistent with the current presentation.
16
PART II (continued)
In RESULTS OF OPERATIONS below, changes in revenues, costs and expenses, and selling, general and
administrative expenses from period to period are analyzed on a segment basis. For net earnings and
similar profit information on a consolidated basis, please see ITEM 6. SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA or
the Companys consolidated financial statements. Pursuant to SFAS 144, the figures in the following
charts for all periods presented do not include Real Estate Segment revenues, costs and expenses,
and selling, general and administrative expenses generated by certain formerly owned
income-producing properties, which have been sold; such amounts have been reclassified as
discontinued operations (see Critical Accounting PoliciesDiscontinued Operations later in this
discussion and analysis section). In addition, the figures in the following charts do not include
the Real Estate revenues and cost and expenses generated by certain sales of real estate held for
sale or future development, although these sales are included in the results from continuing
operations, and are discussed later in this discussion and analysis section.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
REVENUES
Revenues from continuing operations for fiscal 2006 were $18,689,728, compared to $21,631,570 and
$12,325,556, for fiscal 2005 and fiscal 2004, respectively. This represents a decrease in revenues
of 14% in 2006 and an increase in revenues of 76% in 2005. Revenues include interest income of
$181,984, $79,436, and $8,264, for 2006, 2005, and 2004, respectively, and other income of
$325,289, $79,854, and $122,423, for 2006, 2005, and 2004, respectively. The figures in Chart A
below, however, do not include interest income, other income, intersegment revenues, or proceeds
from sales of real estate assets. If more than one segment is involved, revenues are reported by
the segment that sells the product or service to an unaffiliated purchaser.

In the current year, fiscal 2006, Energy and Facilities Solutions revenues increased
approximately $257,000 or 7%, compared to the same period in fiscal 2005, primarily due to: |
|
a) |
|
an increase in revenues related to energy engineering services of approximately $261,000; and |
|
|
b) |
|
an increase in revenues related to the installation of the Companys new Web/wireless
proprietary facility management software of approximately $96,000; |
|
|
|
|
partially offset by: |
|
|
c) |
|
a net decrease in revenues from legacy proprietary software products of $66,000.
|
|
|
In the prior year, fiscal 2005, Energy and Facilities Solutions revenues increased approximately
$525,000 or 18%, compared to the same period in fiscal 2004,
primarily due to: |
|
a) |
|
an increase in revenues related to energy engineering services and proprietary Web/wireless
software products of approximately $630,000 derived from contributions from the acquired businesses
and assets of iTendant, Inc., and Building Performance Engineers, Inc., respectively, which were
acquired in April 2004 and May 2004, respectively; and |
|
|
b) |
|
a net increase in revenues from existing proprietary software products of approximately $49,000; |
|
|
|
|
partially offset by: |
|
|
c) |
|
a decrease in sales of computer hardware of approximately $154,000. |
(2) |
|
In the current year, fiscal 2006, Energy Services revenues decreased approximately $1,720,000
or 18%, compared to the same period in fiscal 2005, primarily due to: |
|
a) |
|
the revenues from one large contract in the education and government sector and one large
contract in the retail sector being included in the prior year, fiscal 2005; |
|
|
|
|
partially offset by: |
|
|
b) |
|
the recognition of approximately $660,000 in revenues in the first quarter of fiscal 2006 from a
consulting services contract that was substantially performed in prior periods and did not have any
current year associated costs and expenses (See Chart B). |
The Energy Services Segment was formed in December 2003, and therefore, a comparison of the change
in revenues between fiscal 2005 and 2004 would not be meaningful.

(3) |
|
In the current year, fiscal 2006, Real Estate revenues from continuing operations decreased
approximately $1,826,000 or 22%, compared to the same period in fiscal 2005, primarily due to: |
|
a) |
|
one-time revenues of $2,250,000 in prior year (fiscal 2005) from the sale of the Companys
former leaseback interest in a shopping center in Minneapolis, Minnesota, in September 2004; and |
|
|
b) |
|
an associated decrease in leaseback income of approximately $141,000 in the current year (fiscal
2006), related to the leaseback sale mentioned in (a) above; |
|
|
|
|
partially offset by: |
|
|
c) |
|
one-time revenues of $425,000 from the sale of the Companys former leaseback interest in a
shopping center in Bayonet Point, Florida, in April 2006; and |
|
|
d) |
|
an increase in rental income in fiscal 2006 of approximately $179,000 related to increased
occupancy. |
|
|
In the prior year, fiscal 2005, Real Estate revenues from continuing operations increased
approximately $1,766,000 or 27%, compared to the same period in fiscal 2004, primarily due to:
|
|
a) |
|
one-time revenues of $2,250,000 from the sale of the Companys former leaseback interest in a
shopping center in Minneapolis, Minnesota, in September 2004. There were no leaseback sales in
fiscal 2004; |
|
|
|
|
partially offset by: |
|
|
b) |
|
an associated decrease in revenues of approximately $202,000 related to the leaseback sale
mentioned in (a) above; and |
|
|
c) |
|
a decrease in revenues of approximately $128,000 related to another
former leaseback that was assigned by the Company in October 2003 to the fee owner. |
COST AND EXPENSES: APPLICABLE TO REVENUES
As a percentage of total segment revenues (See Chart A), the applicable total segment costs and
expenses applicable to revenues (See Chart B) of $10,670,851 for fiscal 2006, $12,711,851 for
fiscal 2005, and $7,720,445 for fiscal 2004, were 59%, 59%, and 63%, respectively. In reviewing

(1) |
|
In the current year, fiscal 2006, the percentage of costs and expenses applicable to
revenues decreased, compared to the same period of fiscal 2005, primarily due to a better
utilization of capacity in energy engineering services, and for all periods presented this
improvement is a result of a change in the mix of services and products sold during the year. |
|
(2) |
|
In the current year, fiscal 2006, costs and expenses on a dollar basis decreased approximately
$1,690,000 or 26%, compared to the same period of fiscal 2005, primarily the result of a
corresponding decrease in revenues. On a percentage basis, costs and expenses decreased for fiscal
2006, compared to the same period of fiscal 2005, primarily due to: |
|
a) |
|
improved operational efficiencies on lighting installations; and |
|
|
b) |
|
the recognition of revenue from a consulting services contract in the first quarter of fiscal
2006, that had no current year costs and expenses. |
The Energy Services Segment was formed in December 2003, and therefore, a comparison between fiscal
2005 and 2004 would not be meaningful.
(3) |
|
In the current year, fiscal 2006, costs and expenses on a dollar basis from continuing
operations decreased $355,000 or 8%, compared to the same period of fiscal 2005, primarily due to: |
|
a) |
|
the absence of lease costs of $115,000 in fiscal 2006 as the result of the sale of the Companys
former leaseback interest in a shopping center located in Minneapolis, Minnesota, in September
2004; and |
|
|
b) |
|
a decrease in depreciation expense of approximately $150,000 primarily related to one of the
Companys owned shopping centers which was fully depreciated as of fiscal 2006. |
In the current year, fiscal 2006, costs and expenses as a percentage of revenues are higher,
compared to fiscal 2005, primarily due to the absence of the one-time rental revenues of $2,250,000
that were included in fiscal 2005, as a result of the sale of the Companys former leaseback
interest in a shopping center in Minneapolis, Minnesota, in October 2004; the cost of the sale was
$42,115.
18
PART II (continued)
The decrease in the percentage of costs and expenses applicable to Real Estate Segments revenues
for fiscal 2005, compared to the same period of fiscal 2004, was primarily due to the one-time
revenues of $2,250,000 that resulted from the sale of the Companys former leaseback interest in
the shopping center in Minneapolis, Minnesota; the cost of the sale was $42,115.
SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES
For fiscal years 2006, 2005, and 2004, selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses from
continuing operations (see Chart C) were $8,689,500, $9,331,313, and $6,600,411, respectively. As a
percentage of consolidated revenues from continuing operations, these expenses were 48%, 43%, and
54% in 2006, 2005, and 2004, respectively. In reviewing Chart C, the reader should recognize that
the volume of revenues generally affects these amounts and percentages. The percentages in Chart C
are based on expenses as they relate to segment revenues from continuing operations in Chart A,
with the exception that Parent expenses and total expenses relate to consolidated revenues.

(1) |
|
In the prior year, fiscal 2005, compared to the same period in fiscal 2004, SG&A expenses
on a dollar basis and percentage basis, decreased approximately $230,000 or 9%, primarily due to: |
|
a) |
|
a one-time expense of approximately $267,000 in fiscal 2004, related to a change in the
estimated useful life of one of the
Companys proprietary facility management software applications; |
|
|
b) |
|
a decrease in rent expense of
approximately $131,000 related to the Energy Facilities and Solutions Segment moving its main
offices to the Companys corporate headquarters; |
|
|
|
|
partially offset by: |
|
|
c) |
|
an increase in bad debt expense related to one customer of approximately $50,000; and |
|
|
d) |
|
an increase in personnel and personnel related costs of approximately $43,000. |
(2) |
|
The Energy Services Segment was formed in December 2003, and therefore, a comparison between
fiscal 2005 and 2004 would not be meaningful. |
|
(3) |
|
In the current year, fiscal 2006, SG&A expenses on a dollar and percentage basis were $425,000
or 30% lower, compared to the same period of fiscal 2005, primarily due to the legal costs and net
settlement costs that were incurred in fiscal 2005, related to the conclusion of arbitration
proceedings. |
|
|
|
In the prior year, fiscal 2005, compared to the same period in fiscal 2004, SG&A expenses from
continuing operations increased $538,000 or 62%, primarily due to: |
|
a) |
|
an increase in personnel and personnel related costs of $138,000; and |
|
|
b) |
|
an increase of $326,000 related to the legal fees and net settlement costs that resulted from
the conclusion of an arbitration matter involving the Companys former asset manager in December
2004. |
(4) |
|
In the current year, fiscal 2006, SG&A expenses on a dollar basis decreased $219,000 or 6%,
compared to the same period in 2005, primarily due to lower incentive compensation tied to the
achievement of Company-wide earnings and performance goals in fiscal 2006. |
|
|
|
In the prior year, fiscal 2005, SG&A expenses were lower on a percentage basis, compared to the
same period in 2004, primarily due to the increase in consolidated revenues. In the prior year,
fiscal 2005, SG&A expenses on a dollar basis increased $990,000 or 39%, compared to the same period
in 2004, primarily due to: |
|
a) |
|
an increase in incentive compensation of approximately $892,000 tied to the successful
achievement of Company-wide earnings and performance goals; |
19
|
b) |
|
an increase in personnel and other personnel related costs of approximately $107,000; |
|
|
c) |
|
costs of approximately $222,000 that were previously incurred among the operating
segments, but are now aggregated at the Parent as a result of the restructuring in fiscal
2005 of formerly separate accounting functions to a consolidated shared services
accounting platform for all operating segments. The majority of these costs were
previously expensed at the former Construction Segment; and |
|
|
d) |
|
an increase of approximately $94,000 in consulting fees related to
the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002; partially offset by: |
|
|
e) |
|
a decrease in legal and tax professional fees of approximately $111,000. |
GROSS PROFIT MARGIN RECONCILIATION
Management believes that in evaluating the Companys performance that gross profit margin is a
commonly used financial analysis tool for measuring and comparing operating performance. However,
in accordance with SFAS 144, the Company is required, among other things, to present the gains and
losses from the disposition of certain income-producing real estate assets, the related operating
results of those sales, and the operating results of its former Construction and Manufacturing
Segments, as discontinued operations in the financial statements for all periods presented.
Although net earnings is not affected, the Company has reclassified results that were previously
included in continuing operations as discontinued operations for qualifying dispositions under
SFAS 144 with regard to the current period and with regard to historical financial results.
Because of SFAS 144, the Companys financial statements do not reflect the increase in margins in
the past seven years. This presentation makes it difficult to determine and evaluate the Companys
growth strategy of developing a portfolio of products and services with higher margins than its
former Construction and Manufacturing Segments. Management uses this combined information in
evaluating the performance and believes investors may find the information helpful for this
purpose as well. The following information combines revenues and expenses, which are reflected on
the statements of operations as discontinued operations to calculate gross profit margin.

INTEREST COSTS
Interest costs expensed of $1,589,144, $1,812,494, and $2,262,116, in fiscal years 2006, 2005, and
2004, respectively,
are primarily related to mortgages on real estate. There was no capitalized interest in any of the
years presented.
GAIN ON SALE OF REAL ESTATE HELD FOR SALE OR FUTURE DEVELOPMENT
Fiscal
2006
On April 28, 2006, the Company closed on the sale of a 7.1 acre tract of land in North Fort
Myers, Florida, for a sales price of approximately $2.4 million, resulting in a pre-tax gain of
approximately $1.2 million. After selling expenses, the sale generated cash proceeds of
approximately $2.36 million.
On December 22, 2005, the Company closed on the sale of a 4.7 acre tract of land in Louisville,
Kentucky, for a sales price of approximately $270,000, resulting in a pre-tax gain of
approximately $184,000. After selling expenses, the sale generated cash proceeds of approximately
$265,000.
On October 28, 2005, the Company closed on the sale of one of its former outlots located in North
Fort Myers, Florida, for a sales price of $625,000, resulting in a pre-tax gain of approximately
$296,000. After selling expenses, the sale generated proceeds of approximately $576,000, of which
$450,000 was recorded as a note receivable, bearing interest at an annual rate of 7.25%, commencing
on December 1, 2005, with interest only payments due monthly until the note matured on April 28,
2006. On May 12, 2006, the note receivable was paid in full.
On October 21, 2005, the Company closed on the sale of one of its former outlots located in North
Fort Myers, Florida, for a sales price of approximately $529,000, resulting in a pre-tax gain of
approximately $246,000. After selling expenses, the sale generated cash proceeds of approximately
$490,000.
Fiscal 2005
On January 31, 2005, the Company closed on the sale of one of its former outlots located in
North Fort Myers, Florida, for a sales price of $515,000, resulting in a pre-tax gain of
approximately $191,000. After selling expenses, the sale generated net cash proceeds of
approximately $468,000.
Fiscal 2004
There were no sales of real estate held for sale or future development in fiscal 2004.
DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
Fiscal 2006
On January 30, 2006, the Company closed on the sale of its former medical office building in
Douglasville, Georgia, which it had acquired in April 2004, for a sales price of $5.5 million,
resulting in a pre-tax gain of approximately $1.38 million. After selling expenses and the
repayment of the mortgage note payable, the sale generated proceeds of approximately $2.5 million.
The Company provided short-term financing at closing for a portion of the transaction, and
initially recorded a note receivable in the amount of $3.3 million, bearing interest at an annual
rate of 5.5%, commencing on March 1, 2006, with interest only payments due monthly until paid at
maturity on May 31, 2006. On April 12, 2006, the note was paid in full and the proceeds were
assigned to and are being held by a qualified third party intermediary. The Company currently
intends to use the net proceeds from this sale in a tax-deferred exchange to acquire an income
producing property, which would qualify the sale for federal income tax deferral under Internal
Revenue Code Section 1031.
Fiscal 2005
On April 18, 2005, the Company closed on the sale of its former shopping center located in
Jackson, Michigan, for a sales price of $7.4 million, resulting in a pre-tax gain of approximately
$4.1 million. After selling expenses, repayment of the mortgage note payable of approximately $2.4
million, and other associated costs, the sale generated net cash proceeds of approximately $4.78
million. At the time of the sale, the Company had intended to use the net proceeds from this sale
to acquire an additional income-producing property, in order to qualify the sale for federal income
tax deferral under the Internal Revenue Code Section 1031. Accordingly, at closing, the cash
proceeds were placed with a qualified third party intermediary. In July 2005, the Company elected
not to acquire a replacement income-producing property. The proceeds of $4.78 million were included
in restricted cash at April 30, 2005, and subsequently in October 2005, the cash proceeds were
transferred to the Company. The Companys federal tax liability of approximately $1.5 million
related to the sale was offset with the Companys net operating loss carryforwards for tax
purposes.
On February 9, 2005, the Company closed on the sale of its former shopping center located in
Cincinnati, Ohio, for a sales price of $3.6 million, resulting in a pre-tax gain of approximately
$850,000. After selling expenses, the sale generated net cash proceeds of $3.45 million. At the
time of the sale, the Company had intended to use the net proceeds from this sale to acquire an
additional income-producing property in order to qualify for Section 1031 federal
21
income tax deferral. Accordingly, at closing, the cash proceeds were placed with a qualified third
party intermediary; subsequently, however, the Company did not consummate an acquisition of a
replacement income-producing property, and the proceeds of approximately $3.49 million were
released to the Company in May 2005. The Companys federal tax liability of approximately $1.5
million related to the sale was offset with the Companys net operating loss carryforwards for tax
purposes.
Fiscal 2004
On March 12, 2004, the Company closed on the sale of its former shopping center in North
Fort Myers, Florida, for a sales price of $21.8 million, resulting in a pre-tax gain of
approximately $4.0 million. After repayment of the loan secured by the shopping center
(approximately $10.5 million) and other expenses, the sale generated net cash proceeds of
approximately $10.6 million.
During fiscal 2004, the Company made the decision to discontinue its operations as a general
contractor, and pursuant to this decision, all general contracting operating activities ceased.
As a result of these transactions, the Companys financial statements have been prepared with the
assets, liabilities, results of operations, cash flows, and the gains on the sales of these
properties shown as discontinued operations for all periods presented.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Working capital was $8,652,086 at April 30, 2006, compared to $10,450,202 at April 30, 2005, a
decline of 17%.
Operating activities used cash of $2,132,811 primarily due for:
|
a) |
|
an increase in note receivables of approximately $510,000 largely related to services
performed on a consulting contract; |
|
|
b) |
|
cash payments of approximately $1,089,000 during fiscal 2006 related to the incentive
compensation generated by the successful achievement of fiscal 2005 Company-wide earnings
and performance goals in fiscal 2005; and |
|
|
c) |
|
current year losses from continuing operations of approximately $206,000. |
Investing activities provided cash of approximately $7,764,094, primarily from:
|
a) |
|
the release of approximately $8,272,000 in sales proceeds previously held in escrow for
the intended purpose of purchasing replacement properties to qualify the sales as Internal
Revenue Code Section 1031 federal tax deferred exchanges for the Companys former shopping
center located in Cincinnati, Ohio, which was sold in February 2005, and for the Companys
former shopping center located in Jackson, Michigan, which was sold in April 2005. The
Company ultimately did not purchase replacement properties with these proceeds; |
|
|
b) |
|
total proceeds of approximately $3,246,000 from three sales (two outlots in October
2005 and one 7.1 acre tract of land in April 2006) all located in North Fort Myers,
Florida, that were each sold at gains, and the sale of a 4.7 acre tract of land located in
Louisville, Kentucky, that was sold at a gain in December 2005; |
|
|
c) |
|
the proceeds from the maturity of a held-to-maturity
investment of $2,000,000; |
|
partially offset by: |
|
|
d) |
|
the deposit with a qualified intermediary of cash proceeds of approximately $3,660,000
from sales of real estate in order to qualify the sales for federal income tax deferrals
under the Internal Revenue Code Section 1031. In May 2006, the Company elected not to use a
portion of these proceeds related to the sale of the Companys former interest in a
leaseback property located in Bayonet Point, Florida, to purchase an income-producing
property, and as a result, approximately $419,000 in proceeds were released to the Company; |
|
|
e) |
|
additions to income-producing properties of approximately $724,000, primarily related
to tenant and building improvements; and |
|
|
f) |
|
additions to intangibles of approximately $867,000, primarily related to the software
development costs for one of the Companys new proprietary software solutions. |
Financing activities used cash of $1,631,530 for scheduled principal payments of mortgage notes
and other long-term debt as well as for regular quarterly dividends.
Discontinued operations provided cash of $1,927,407, almost entirely from the sale of a
professional medical office building in Douglasville, Georgia.
The Company anticipates that its existing cash balances, equity, proceeds from potential sales of
real estate, cash flow provided by potential financing or refinancing of debt obligations, and cash
flow generated from operations will, for the foreseeable future, provide adequate liquidity and
financial flexibility for the Company to meet its needs for working capital, capital expenditures,
and investment activities.
22
PART
II (continued)
Secured Letter of Credit
In conjunction with terms of the mortgage on the office building, the Company is required to
provide for potential future tenant improvement costs and lease commissions at that property
through additional collateral, in the form of a letter of credit in the amount of $150,000 from
July 17, 2002, through July 16, 2005, $300,000 from July 17, 2005, through July 16, 2008, and
$450,000 from July 17, 2008, through August 1, 2012. The letter of credit is secured by a
certificate of deposit, which is recorded on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of
April 30, 2006, as restricted cash.
Repurchases of Common Stock
In March 2006, the Companys Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to 50,000
shares of the Companys common stock in the twelve-month period beginning March 6, 2006, and
ending on March 5, 2007. Any such purchases, if made, could be made in the open market at
prevailing prices or in privately negotiated transactions. The Company did not repurchase any of
its shares in the period between May 1, 2005, and June 30, 2006.
Other Commitments and Contingencies
The Companys other commitments are largely comprised of operating leases for its leaseback
shopping centers, as described in ITEM 2. PROPERTIES. The Company has no long-term commitments
to purchase building materials or other supplies.
Effective April 30, 2003, the Company terminated an employment agreement and entered into a new
retirement agreement with a former officer and director of the Company. Beginning, May 1, 2003,
the new agreement required the Company to make weekly payments that totaled approximately $87,000
through August 19, 2003, and then approximately $100,000 per year thereafter, for a term of four
years ending on August 19, 2007. In addition, the Company continues to provide certain medical
insurance benefits through the term of the retirement agreement. The new retirement agreement
would terminate early in the event of the death of the retiree.
On June 28, 2006, the Company received a letter disputing a portion of the amounts the Company is
owed in conjunction with a signed letter agreement and promissory note receivable. The Company
believes that the terms of the note are unambiguous and intends to vigorously assert its claims.
In the unlikely event the Company was unable to recover the full amount of the note, the Company
could incur a pre-tax bad debt loss of up to $67,000 as a result.

Regularly scheduled principal amortization and interest payments and final payments due upon maturity. In
computing interest expense, the Company used the applicable contractual rate. All of the mortgage notes payable are
fixed rate debt instruments. The Companys liability for repayment of each of these mortgages is limited to its
interest in the respective mortgaged properties by exculpatory provisions. |
|
(2) |
|
Future minimum rental payments on
leaseback shopping centers and ground leases. The Companys liability for payment under each of the leases is
limited to its interest in the perspective leasebacks and ground leases. |
|
(3) |
|
In computing interest expense related
to variable rate debt, a coupon rate of 9.25% (prime rate at April 30, 2006, plus 1.5%) was used for all periods,
and for fixed rate debt, the applicable contractual rate was used for all periods. |
EFFECTS OF INFLATION ON REVENUES AND OPERATING PROFITS
The effects of inflation upon the Companys operating results are varied. Inflation in recent years
has been modest and
has had minimal effect on the Company.
The Energy and Facilities Solutions Segment generally has contracts that are renewed on an annual
basis. At the time of renewal, contract fees may be increased, subject to customer approval. As
inflation affects the Companys costs, primarily labor, the Company could seek a price increase
for its contracts in order to protect its profit margin.
23
The Energy Services Segment typically engages in contracts of short duration with fixed prices,
which normally will minimize any erosion of its profit margin due to inflation. As inflation
affects the Companys costs, primarily labor and materials, the Company could seek a price
increase for subsequent contracts to protect its profit margin.
In the Real Estate Segment, many of the anchor retail tenant leases are long-term (original terms
over 20 years), with fixed rents, and some of the non-anchor retail leases have contingent rent
provisions by which the Company may earn additional rent as a result of increases in tenants sales
in excess of specified predetermined targets. In many cases, however, the contingent rent
provisions permit the tenant to offset against contingent rents any portion of the tenants share
of ad valorem taxes that is above a specified predetermined amount. If inflation were to rise, the
tenants sales could increase, potentially generating contingent rent, but ad valorem taxes would
probably increase as well, which, in turn, could cause a decrease in the contingent rents.
Furthermore, the Company has certain repair obligations, and the costs of repairs generally
increase with inflation.
Inflation causes interest rates to rise, which has a positive effect on investment income, but
could have a negative effect on profit margins, because of the increased costs of contracts and
the increase in interest expense for variable rate loans.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
A critical accounting policy is one which is both important to the portrayal of a Companys
financial position and results of operations, and requires the Company to make estimates and
assumptions in certain circumstances that affect amounts reported in the accompanying consolidated
financial statements and related notes. In preparing these financial statements, the Company has
made its best estimates and used its best judgments regarding certain amounts included in the
financial statements, giving due consideration to materiality. The application of these accounting
policies involves the exercise of judgment and the use of assumptions regarding future
uncertainties, and as a result, actual results could differ from those estimates. Management
believes that the Companys most critical accounting policies are discussed and described in Note 2
to the consolidated financial statements, and include:
REVENUE RECOGNITION
The Energy and Facilities Solutions Segment derives its revenues primarily from three sources:
(1) implementation, training, support and base service fees from customers accessing its on-demand
facility management application; (2) sales of proprietary computer solutions and hardware; and (3)
energy engineering and consulting services. Since the Company provides its proprietary facility
management software applications as a service, the Company follows the provisions of Securities
and Exchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) 104, Revenue Recognition. The Company
recognizes revenue when all of the following conditions are met: there is persuasive evidence of
an arrangement; service has been provided to the customer; the collection of fees is probable; and
the amount of fees to be paid by the customer is fixed and determinable. The Companys sale
arrangements do not include general rights of return. Revenues are recognized ratably over the
contract terms beginning on the commencement date of each contract. Amounts that have been
invoiced are recorded in accounts receivable and in revenue or deferred revenue, depending on
whether or not the revenue recognition criteria have been met. Additionally, the Company defers
such direct costs and amortizes those costs over the same time period as the revenue is
recognized. Energy engineering and consulting services are accounted for separately and are
recognized as the services are rendered in accordance with SAB 104. Sales of proprietary computer
solutions and hardware are recognized when products are sold.
Energy Services Segment revenues are reported on the percentage-of-completion method, using costs
incurred to date in relation to estimated total costs of the contracts to measure the stage of
completion. Original contract prices are adjusted for change orders in the amounts that are
reasonably estimated based on the Companys historical experience. The cumulative effects of
changes in estimated total contract costs and revenues (change orders) are recorded in the period
in which the facts requiring such revisions become known, and are accounted for using the
percentage-of-completion method. At the time it is determined that a contract is expected to result
in a loss, the entire estimated loss is recorded.
24
PART II (continued)
The Company leases space in its income-producing properties to tenants and recognizes minimum
base rentals as revenue on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The lease term usually begins
when the tenant takes possession of or controls the physical use of the leased asset. Generally,
this occurs on the lease commencement date. In determining what constitutes the leased asset, the
Company evaluates whether the Company or the tenant is the owner of the improvements. If the
Company is the owner of the improvements, then the leased asset is the finished space. In such
instances, revenue recognition begins when the tenant takes possession of the finished space,
typically when the improvements are substantially complete. If the Company concludes that the
improvements belong to the tenant, then the leased asset is the unimproved space and any
improvement allowances funded under the lease are treated as lease incentives that reduce the
revenue recognized over the term of the lease. In these circumstances, the Company begins revenue
recognition when the tenant takes possession of the unimproved space. The Company considers a
number of different factors in order to evaluate who owns the improvements. These factors include
(1) whether the lease stipulates how and on what an improvement allowance may be spent; (2) whether
the tenant or the Company retains legal title to the improvements; (3) the uniqueness of the
improvements; (4) the expected economic life of the improvements relative to the length of the
lease; and (5) who constructs or directs the construction of the improvements. The determination of
who owns the improvement is subject to significant judgment. In making the determination, the
Company considers all of the above factors; however, no one factor is determinative in reaching a
conclusion. Tenants may also be required to pay additional rental amounts as partial reimbursements
for their share of property operating and common area expenses, real estate taxes, and insurance,
which are recognized when earned. In addition, certain retail tenants are required to pay
incremental rental amounts, which are contingent upon their store sales. These percentage rents are
recognized only if and when earned.
Revenue from the sale of real estate is recognized when all of the following has occurred: (a) the
property is transferred from the Company to the buyer; (b) the buyers initial and continuing
investment is adequate to demonstrate a commitment to pay for the property; and (c) the buyer has
assumed all future ownership risks of the property. Costs of sales related to real estate are
based on the specific property sold. If a portion or unit of a development property is sold, a
proportionate share of the total cost of the development is charged to cost of sales.
INCOME-PRODUCING PROPERTIES AND PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT
Income-producing properties are stated at historical cost, and are depreciated for financial
reporting purposes using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets.
Significant additions that extend asset lives are capitalized and are depreciated over their
respective estimated useful lives. Normal maintenance and repair costs are expensed as incurred.
Interest and other carrying costs related to real estate assets under active development are
capitalized. Other costs of development and construction of real estate assets are also
capitalized. Capitalization of interest and other carrying costs is discontinued when a project is
substantially completed or if active development ceases. The Company reviews its long-lived assets
for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an
asset may not be recoverable.
Property and equipment are recorded at historical cost, and are depreciated for financial reporting
purposes using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets.
VALUATION OF GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS
Goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives are reviewed for impairment on an annual
basis or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset
may not be recoverable. The recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a
comparison of the carrying amount of the asset to the future net discounted cash flows expected to
be generated by the asset. If an asset is determined to be impaired, the impairment to be
recognized is determined by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the
assets estimated fair value. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of their carrying
amount or estimated fair value less estimated costs to sell. The most significant assumptions in
the impairment analysis are estimated future revenue growth, estimated future profit margins and
discount rate. The Company estimates future revenue growth by utilizing several factors, which
include revenue currently in backlog, commitments from long standing customers, targeted revenue
from qualified prospects, and revenues expected to be generated from new sales or marketing
initiatives. The discount rate is determined by an average cost of the Companys equity and debt.
The Company performed the annual impairment analysis of goodwill and indefinite lived intangible
assets for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2006, on December 19, 2005, for the Energy Services
Segment, and on April 30, 2006, for the Energy Facilities and Solutions Segment. Additionally, the
Company performed a sensitivity analysis assuming the discount rate was 100 basis points higher and
the growth rate was 30% lower than those used in the initial analysis. The analyses did not result
in an impairment for fiscal 2006. As of April 30, 2006, the Company does not believe that any of
its goodwill or other intangible assets are impaired.
25
INCOME TAXES
Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets
and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences
between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their
respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax
rates expected to be applied to taxable income in the years in which those temporary
differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect of a change in tax rates on
deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in income in the period that includes the
enactment date.
DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
The Company adopted SFAS 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived
Assets, effective in fiscal 2003, which requires, among other things, that the gains and
losses from the disposition of certain income-producing real estate assets, and associated
liabilities, operating results, and cash flows be reflected as discontinued operations in the
financial statements for all periods presented. Although net earnings is not affected, the
Company has reclassified results that were previously included in continuing operations as
discontinued operations for qualifying dispositions under SFAS 144.
RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In December 2004, the FASB issued Statement SFAS 123(R) which replaces SFAS 123,
Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, and supersedes Accounting Principles Board Opinion
25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees. SFAS 123(R) applies to all transactions
involving the issuance by the Company of its own equity securities (stock, stock options,
stock appreciation rights or other equity instruments) in exchange for goods or services,
including employee services. SFAS 123(R) requires that all such equity awards to employees be
expensed by the Company over any related vesting period. The Company adopted this standard
using the modified prospective method. Under this method, the Company records compensation
expense for all awards it has or will grant after the date it adopted the standard. In
addition, as of the effective date, the Company is required to record compensation expense
for any unvested portion of the previously granted awards that remain outstanding at the date
of adoption. SFAS 123(R) became effective for the Company as of May 1, 2006. All outstanding
stock options were vested as of May 1, 2006, and therefore, the adoption of this statement
will not have an impact on the Companys financial position or results of operations,
excluding the effect of any future equity grants issued hereinafter.
CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION
Certain statements contained or incorporated by reference in this Annual Report on Form 10-K,
including without limitation, statements containing the words believes, anticipates,
estimates, expects, plans, and words of similar import, are forward-looking statements
within the meaning of the federal securities laws. Such forward-looking statements involve
known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other matters which may cause the actual past
results, performance, or achievements of the Company to be materially different from any
future results, performance, or uncertainties expressed or implied by such forward-looking
statements.
The factors set forth in ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS could cause actual results to differ
materially from those predicted in the Companys forward-looking statements. In addition,
factors relating to general global, national, regional, and local economic conditions,
including international political stability, national defense, homeland security, natural
disasters, terrorism, employment levels, wage and salary levels, consumer confidence,
availability of credit, taxation policies, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, SEC reporting
requirements, fees paid to vendors in order to remain in compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley
Act and SEC requirements, interest rates, capital spending, and inflation could positively or
negatively impact the Company and its customers, suppliers, and sources of capital. Any
significant negative impact from these factors could result in material adverse effects on
the Companys results of operations and financial condition.
The Company is also at risk for many other matters beyond its control, including, but not
limited to: the possible impact, if any, on revenues due to the ultimate disposition of legal
proceedings in which the Company may be involved; the potential loss of significant
customers; the Companys future ability to sell or refinance its real estate; the possibility
of not achieving projected backlog revenues or not realizing earnings from such revenues; the
cost and availability of insurance; the ability of the Company to attract and retain key
personnel; weather conditions; changes in laws and regulations, including changes in
accounting standards, generally accepted accounting principles, and regulatory requirements
of the SEC and NASDAQ; overall vacancy rates in the markets where the Company leases retail
and office space; overall capital spending trends in the economy; the timing and amount of
earnings recognition related to the possible sale of real estate properties held for sale;
delays in or cancellations of customers orders; inflation; the level and volatility of
energy prices; the level and volatility of interest rates; the failure of a subcontractor to
perform; and the deterioration in the financial stability of an anchor tenant, other
significant customer, or subcontractor.

PART

ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
The Companys major market risk exposure arises from future changes in interest rates and the
resulting potential impact on variable rate debt instruments. The Company at April 30, 2006, had
variable rate debt of $930,000. In addition, the Company has interest rate risk associated with
fixed rate debt. The Companys objectives in interest rate risk management are to limit the
potential negative impact of interest rates on earnings and cash flows and to lower overall
borrowing costs. To achieve these objectives, the Company borrows at fixed rates when it believes
it is in its best interests to do so, and may enter into derivative financial instruments, such as
interest rate swaps and caps, in order to limit its exposure to interest rate fluctuations. The
Company does not enter into derivative or interest rate transactions for speculative purposes.
There were no derivative contracts in effect at April 30, 2006, or April 30, 2005.
The following table summarizes information related to the Companys market risk sensitive debt
instruments as of April 30, 2006:

Interest on variable rate debt is based on prime rate plus 1.5%. |
The estimated fair value of the Companys debt, as of April 30, 2006, is determined by a
discounted cash flow analysis using current borrowing rates for debt with similar terms and
remaining maturities. Such fair value is subject to future changes in interest rates. Generally,
the fair value will increase as interest rates fall and decrease as interest rates rise.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
The Board
of Directors and Shareholders
Servidyne, Inc,:
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Servidyne, Inc. and
subsidiaries (the Company) as of April 30, 2006 and 2005, and the related consolidated
statements of operations, shareholders equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in
the period ended April 30, 2006. Our audits also included the financial statement schedule
listed in the Index at Item 15. These financial statements and financial statement schedule
are the responsibility of the Companys management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these consolidated financial statements and financial statement schedule based on
our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting
Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit
to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit
of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of
internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are
appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the
effectiveness of the Companys internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we
express no opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles
used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for
our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of Servidyne, Inc. and subsidiaries as of April
30, 2006, and 2005, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the
three years in the period ended April 30, 2006, in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America. Also, in our opinion, such financial
statement schedule for 2006, 2005, and 2004 when considered in relation to the basic
consolidated financial statements taken as a whole, present fairly, in all material respects,
the information set forth herein.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
APRIL 30, 2006, 2005, AND 2004
1. ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS
Servidyne, Inc. (formerly Abrams Industries, Inc.) and subsidiaries (the Company) was organized
under Delaware law in 1960. In 1984, the Company changed its state of incorporation from Delaware
to Georgia. In July 2006, the Company changed its name to Servidyne, Inc. from Abrams Industries,
Inc. The Company (i) provides energy engineering and analytical consulting services and develops,
implements and supports facility management software applications; (ii) implements energy savings
lighting programs and provides other energy services including facility related improvements that
reduce energy and operating costs; and (iii) engages in real estate investment and development. The
Company also formerly provided commercial construction services as a general contractor. The
Companys wholly-owned subsidiaries include Servidyne Systems, LLC, (the Energy and Facilities
Solutions Segment); The Wheatstone Energy Group, LLC (the Energy Services Segment); and Abrams
Properties, Inc. and subsidiaries, and AFC Real Estate, Inc. and its subsidiary (the Real Estate
Segment).
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(A) PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Servidyne, Inc., its wholly-owned
subsidiaries, and its 80% investment in Abrams-Columbus Limited Partnership. All significant
intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
The Company has made reclassifications related to certain income-producing properties that have
been sold in accordance with the provisions of SFAS 144. Additionally, one immaterial outparcel
sale that was previously classified in gross revenues from continuing operations in fiscal 2005, is
now being presented as a net gain on sale of real estate on the accompanying consolidated
statements of operations to conform with the current year presentation.
(B) USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States of America requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect
the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at
the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
(C) REVENUE RECOGNITION
The Energy and Facilities Solutions Segment derives its revenues primarily from three sources: (1)
implementation, training, support and base service fees from customers accessing its on-demand
facility management application; (2) sales of proprietary computer solutions and hardware; and (3)
energy engineering and consulting services. Since the Company provides its proprietary facility
management software applications as a service, the Company follows the provisions of Securities and
Exchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) 104, Revenue Recognition. The Company
recognizes revenue when all of the following conditions are met: there is persuasive evidence of an
arrangement; service has been provided to the customer; the collection of fees is probable; and the
amount of fees to be paid by the customer is fixed and determinable. The Companys sale
arrangements do not include general rights of return. Revenues are recognized ratably over the
contract terms beginning on the commencement date of each contract. Amounts that have been invoiced
are recorded in accounts receivable and in revenue or deferred revenue, depending on whether or not
the revenue recognition criteria have been met. Additionally, the Company defers such direct costs
and amortizes those costs over the same time period as the revenue is recognized. Energy
engineering and consulting services are accounted for separately and are recognized as the services
are rendered in accordance with SAB 104. Sales of proprietary computer solutions and hardware are
recognized when products are sold.
Energy Services Segment revenues are reported on the percentage-of-completion method, using costs
incurred to date in relation to estimated total costs of the contracts to measure the stage of
completion. Original contract prices are adjusted for change orders in the amounts that are
reasonably estimated based on the Companys historical experience. The cumulative effects of
changes in estimated total contract costs and revenues (change orders) are recorded in the period
in which the facts requiring such revisions become known, and are accounted for using the
percentage-of-completion method. At the time it is determined that a contract is expected to result
in a loss, the entire estimated loss is recorded.
The Company leases space in its income-producing properties to tenants and recognizes minimum base
rentals as revenue on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The lease term usually begins when
the tenant takes possession of or controls the physical use of the leased asset. Generally, this
occurs on the lease commencement date. In determining what constitutes the leased asset, the
Company evaluates whether the Company or the tenant is the owner of the improvements. If the
Company is the owner of the improvements, then the leased asset is the finished
33
space. In such instances, revenue recognition begins when the tenant takes possession of the
finished space, typically when the improvements are substantially complete. If the Company
concludes that the improvements belong to the tenant, then the leased asset is the unimproved space
and any improvement allowances funded under the lease are treated as lease incentives that reduce
the revenue recognized over the term of the lease. In these circumstances, the Company begins
revenue recognition when the tenant takes possession of the unimproved space. The Company considers
a number of different factors in order to evaluate who owns the improvements. These factors include
(1) whether the lease stipulates how and on what an improvement allowance may be spent; (2) whether
the tenant or the Company retains legal title to the improvements; (3) the uniqueness of the
improvements; (4) the expected economic life of the improvements relative to the length of the
lease; and (5) who constructs or directs the construction of the improvements. The determination of
who owns the improvement is subject to significant judgment. In making the determination, the
Company considers all of the above factors; however, no one factor is determinative in reaching a
conclusion. Tenants may also be required to pay additional rental amounts as partial reimbursements
for their share of property operating and common area expenses, real estate taxes, and insurance,
which are recognized when earned. In addition, certain retail tenants are required to pay
incremental rental amounts, which are contingent upon their store sales. These percentage rents are
recognized only if and when earned.
Revenue from the sale of real estate is recognized when all of the following has occurred: (a) the
property is transferred from the Company to the buyer; (b) the buyers initial and continuing
investment is adequate to demonstrate a commitment to pay for the property; and (c) the buyer has
assumed all future ownership risks of the property. Costs of sales related to real estate are based
on the specific property sold. If a portion or unit of a development property is sold, a
proportionate share of the total cost of the development is charged to cost of sales.
(D) CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS AND SHORT-TERM INVESTMENTS
Cash and cash equivalents include money market funds and other highly liquid financial instruments,
but excludes restricted cash (current and long-term). The Company considers all highly liquid
financial instruments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The
Company considers financial instruments with original maturities of three months to one year to be
short-term investments. The Company has classified all short-term investments as held to maturity.
(E) RESTRICTED CASH
Restricted cash includes funds that are temporarily held in escrow (current and long-term)
resulting from proceeds of sales of real estate that the Company elects to be deposited into an
escrow account with a qualified third-party intermediary in order to fund potential acquisitions of
income-producing properties through a tax deferred Internal Revenue Code Section 1031 exchange. If
the Company elects or is unable to complete such acquisitions, then the proceeds are distributed to
the Company and thus converted to cash and cash equivalents. In addition, restricted cash also
includes a short-term investment that is restricted in order to secure a letter of credit.
(F) INCOME-PRODUCING PROPERTIES AND PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT
Income-producing properties are stated at historical cost, and are depreciated for financial
reporting purposes using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets.
Significant additions that extend asset lives are capitalized and are depreciated over their
respective estimated useful lives. Normal maintenance and repair costs are expensed as incurred.
Interest and other carrying costs related to real estate assets under active development are
capitalized. Other costs of development and construction of real estate assets are also
capitalized. Capitalization of interest and other carrying costs is discontinued when a project is
substantially completed or if active development ceases.
Property and equipment are recorded at historical cost, and are depreciated for financial reporting
purposes using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets.
(G) REAL ESTATE HELD FOR FUTURE DEVELOPMENT OR SALE
Real estate held for future development or sale is carried at the lower of historical cost or fair
value less estimated
costs to sell.
(H) DEFERRED LOAN COSTS
Costs incurred to obtain loans have been deferred and are being amortized over the terms of the
related loans.
(I) IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS AND ASSETS TO BE DISPOSED OF
The Company reviews its tong-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in
circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. The
recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of
the asset to the future net undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If an
asset is determined to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is determined by the amount by
34
NOTES
TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
APRIL 30, 2006, 2005, AND 2004
which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the assets fair value. Assets to be disposed of are
reported at the lower of their carrying amounts or fair value less estimated costs to sell. As of
April 30, 2006, the Company does not believe any of its long-lived assets are impaired.
(J) INCOME TAXES
Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and
liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the
financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax
bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to be
applied to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be
recovered or settled. The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities is
recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
(K) CAPITALIZED COMPUTER SOFTWARE
Software development is accounted for in accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) 00-3
that sets forth the accounting of software in a Web hosting arrangement. As such, the Company
follows the guidance set forth in Statement of Position (SOP) 98-1, Accounting for the Costs of
Computer Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use, in accounting for the development of its
on-demand application services. SOP 98-1 requires that costs that are incurred in the preliminary
project stage should be expensed as incurred. Costs that are incurred during the application
development stage are capitalized and reported at the lower of unamortized cost or net realizable
value. Capitalization ceases when the computer software development project is substantially
complete, including testing of the computer software, and the software product is ready for its
intended use. Capitalized costs are amortized based on current and future estimated revenue for
each product with an annual minimum equal to the straight-line amortization over the remaining
estimated economic life of the product.
(L) GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS
Intangible assets primarily consist of trademarks, computer software, customer relationships,
proprietary facility management software applications, lease costs, and deferred loan costs. The
trademarks are unamortized intangible assets as they have indefinite lives. However, the computer
software, proprietary facility management software applications, lease costs, and deferred loan
costs are amortized using the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives:
|
|
|
|
|
Computer software |
|
3 years |
Proprietary facility management software applications |
|
5 years |
Customer relationships |
|
5 years |
Lease costs |
|
Over the term of the lease |
Loan costs |
|
Over the term of the loan |
The Company tested goodwill and other intangibles assets, related to its Energy and Facilities
Solutions Segment and its Energy Services Segment, with indefinite useful lives for impairment, as
required by Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS) 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible
Assets, issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Accounting Board (FASB), utilizing expected
present value of estimated future cash flows. The analysis did not result in an impairment for
fiscal 2006. As of April 30, 2006, the Company does not believe any of its goodwill or other
intangible assets are impaired.
(M) DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES
The Company accounts for derivative and hedging activities, if any, in accordance with SFAS 133,
Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, as amended. Under SFAS 133,
derivative instruments are recognized in the balance sheet at fair value, and changes in the fair
value of such instruments are recognized currently in earnings unless specific hedge accounting
criteria are met. At April 30, 2006, and April 30, 2005, the Company had no derivative instruments.
(N) DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
The Company adopted SFAS 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets,
effective if fiscal 2003, which requires, among other things, that the gains and losses from the
disposition of certain income-producing real estate assets, and associated liabilities, operating
results, and cash flows be reflected as discontinued operations in the financial statements for all
periods presented. Although net earnings is not affected, the Company has reclassified results that
were previously included in continuing operations as discontinued operations for qualifying
dispositions under SFAS 144.

(Q) RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENT
In December 2004, the FASB issued Statement SFAS 123(R) which replaces SFAS 123, Accounting for
Stock-Based Compensation, and supersedes Accounting Principles Board Opinion 25, Accounting for
Stock Issued to Employees. SFAS 123(R) applies to all transactions involving the issuance by the
Company of its own equity securities (stock, stock options, stock appreciation rights or other
equity instruments) in exchange for goods or services, including employee services. SFAS 123(R)
requires that all such equity awards to employees be expensed by the Company over any related
vesting period. The Company adopted this standard using the modified prospective method. Under this
method, the Company records compensation expense for all awards it has or will grant after the date
it adopted the standard. In addition, as of the effective date, the Company is required to record
compensation expense for any unvested portion of the previously granted awards that remain
outstanding at the date of adoption. SFAS 123(R) became effective for the Company as of May 1,
2006. All outstanding stock options were vested as of May 1, 2006, and therefore, the adoption of
this statement will not have an impact on the Companys financial position or results of
operations, excluding the effect of any future equity grants issued hereinafter.
(R) STOCK COMPENSATION
For purposes of the pro forma disclosures required by SFAS 123, the Company has computed the value
of all stock and
stock option awards granted during fiscal 2006, 2005, and 2004, using the Black-Scholes option
pricing model.
If the Company had accounted for its stock-based compensation awards in accordance with SFAS 123,
results would have been as follows for the years ended April 30:

The Company adjusted the stock options previously awarded for the 10% stock dividend declared and
distributed during the quarter ended October 31, 2005 (See Note 13Net Earnings (Loss) Per
Share). All stock option amounts have been adjusted retroactively to increase the number of stock
options outstanding, to account for the stock dividend for all periods presented.

In April 2006, the Company accelerated the vesting of 39,050 outstanding stock options, which were
the only unvested, outstanding stock options. Accordingly, at April 30, 2006, all outstanding stock
options were fully vested. There was no additional compensation expense as a result, because at the
time of vesting, none of the unvested, outstanding stock options were in-the-money.
As of April 30, 2006, 4,029 of the outstanding and vested stock options were in-the-money and
exercisable. None of the vested stock options were in-the-money as of April 30, 2005, and April
30, 2004.

RESTRICTED CASH
Restricted cash includes funds that are temporarily held in escrow (current and long-term)
resulting from proceeds of sales of real estate that the Company elects to be deposited into an
escrow account with a qualified third-party intermediary in order to fund potential acquisitions of
income-producing properties through a tax deferred Internal Revenue Code Section 1031 exchange. If
the Company elects or is unable to complete such acquisitions, then the proceeds are distributed to
the Company and thus converted to cash and cash equivalents. In addition, restricted cash also
includes a short-term investment that is restricted in order to secure a letter of credit.

4.
DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
The Company is in the business of creating long-term value by periodically realizing gains through
the sales of existing real estate assets, and then redeploying its capital by reinvesting the
proceeds from such sales. SFAS 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets,
requires, among other things, that the operating results of certain income-producing assets, which
have been sold, be included in discontinued operations in the statements of operations for all
periods presented. The Company classifies an asset as a current asset held for sale when the asset
is under a binding sales contract with minimal contingencies, and the buyer is materially at risk
if the buyer fails to complete the transaction. However, in determining such classification, each
potential transaction is evaluated based on its separate facts and circumstances. Pursuant to this
standard, as of April 30, 2006, the Company had no current assets that were classified as held for
disposition or sale.
Interest expense specifically related to mortgage debt on income-producing properties that have
been sold is allocated to the results of discontinued operations in accordance with EITF 87-24,
Allocation of Interest to Discontinued Operations. The Company has elected not to allocate to
discontinued operations other consolidated interest that is not directly attributable to or related
to other operations of the Company.
CONSTRUCTION SEGMENT
During its fiscal year ended April 30, 2004, the Company made the decision to discontinue its
operations as a general contractor, and pursuant this decision, all general contracting operating
activities ceased. The former Construction Segment is classified as a discontinued operation.
REAL ESTATE SALES OF INCOME-PRODUCING PROPERTIES
On January 30, 2006, the Company sold its former professional medical office building located in
Douglasville, Georgia, which the Company had acquired in April 2004, and recognized a pre-tax gain
on the sale of approximately $1.38 million. On April 18, 2005, the Company sold its former shopping
center located in Jackson, Michigan, and recognized a pre-tax gain of approximately $4.1 million.
On February 9, 2005, the Company sold its former shopping center located in Cincinnati, Ohio, and
recognized a pretax gain of approximately $850,000. On March 12, 2004, the Company sold its former
shopping center located in North Fort Myers, Florida, and recognized a pre-tax gain of
approximately $4.0 million.
As a result of these transactions, the Companys financial statements have been prepared with the
assets, liabilities, results of operations, cash flows, and the gains from the sales reclassified
as discontinued operations. All historical statements have been restated in accordance with SFAS
144. Summarized financial information for discontinued operations for
the fiscal years ended April

MORTGAGE NOTES PAYABLE AND LEASES
As of April 30, 2006, the Company owned three shopping centers, one office building, an office
park, and a former manufacturing and warehouse facility. Of the owned properties, all of the
shopping centers and office properties were pledged as collateral on related mortgage notes
payable. Exculpatory provisions of each of the mortgage notes limit the Companys liability for
repayment to its interest in the respective mortgaged properties.
As of April 30, 2006, Kmart was a tenant in two of the three Company-owned shopping centers. The
owned shopping centers are leased to tenants for terms expiring on various dates from fiscal years
2007 to 2017, while leases on the office properties expire from fiscal years 2007 to 2013. The
Company also leases four shopping centers under leaseback arrangements expiring on various dates
between fiscal years 2008 to 2015. Each of the Companys leases contains exculpatory provisions
that limit the Companys liability for payment to its interest in the respective leases. All of the
leaseback shopping centers are subleased to the Kmart Corporation. The terms of the subleases
either are the same as, or may be extended to correspond to, the leaseback periods.
All leases are operating leases. The owned shopping center leases typically require that the
tenants make fixed rental payments over a five to 25 year period, and may provide for renewal
options, and contingent rentals if the tenants sales volume in the leased space exceeds a
predetermined amount. In most cases, the shopping center leases provide that the tenant bear its
defined share of the cost of insurance, repairs, maintenance, and taxes.
Base rental revenues recognized from owned shopping centers and office properties in 2006, 2005,
and 2004, were approximately $4,299,000, $4,151,000, and $4,254,000, respectively. Base rental
revenues recognized from leaseback shopping centers in 2006, 2005, and 2004, were approximately
$1,421,000, $1,574,000, and $1,904,000, respectively. In addition, the Company recognized one-time
revenues from the sales of two of its leaseback interests of $425,000 in 2006, $2,250,000 in 2005,
and $0 in 2004. Contingent rental revenues on all shopping centers in 2006, 2005, and 2004, were
approximately $27,000, $54,000, and $138,000, respectively.
Approximate future minimum annual rental receipts from all rental properties are as follows:

NOTES
TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
APRIL 30, 2006, 2005, AND 2004
SECURED LETTER OF CREDIT
In conjunction with terms of the mortgage on the office building, the Company is required to
provide for potential future tenant improvement costs and lease commissions at that property
through additional collateral, in the form of a letter of credit in the amount of $150,000 from
July 17, 2002, through July 16, 2005, $300,000 from July 17, 2005, through July 16, 2008, and
$450,000 from July 17, 2008, through August 1, 2012. The letter of credit is secured by a
certificate of deposit, which is recorded on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of
April 30, 2006, as restricted cash.
DEBT RESTRUCTURING IN FISCAL 2005
In July 2004, the Company restructured the loan on the Companys owned shopping center in
Jacksonville, Florida. The Company paid the lender $1.5 million as payment in full of the
Additional Interest Agreement, which was then terminated. The loan principal amount was reduced by
$474,042. The restructured loan principal amount was $7.8 million; the loan bears interest at
6,125% and the loan principal amount is scheduled to be fully amortized at its maturity on July 1,
2029, although the loan may be called by the lender for early repayment any time after July 1,
2011, upon thirteen months prior notice.
Management has determined that the restructuring of the loan mentioned above was a material
modification of the original loan, and as a result, the Company recognized an expense relating to
the early extinguishment of debt in the amount of $218,071, as shown on the accompanying statement
of operations. In conjunction with the restructured loan, the Company recorded $50,000 in deferred
loan costs to be amortized over the estimated life of the restructured loan.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
APRIL 30, 2006, 2005, AND 2004
11. 401 (K) PLAN
The Company has a 401 (k) plan (the Plan), which covers the majority of its employees. Pursuant
to the provisions of the Plan, eligible employees may elect to make salary deferral (before tax)
contributions of up to 100% of their total compensation per plan year, not to exceed a specified
maximum annual contribution as determined by the Internal Revenue Service. The Plan also includes
provisions that authorize the Company to make discretionary contributions. Such contributions, if
made, are allocated among all eligible employees as determined under the Plan. The trustee under
the Plan invests the assets of each participants account, as directed by the participant. The Plan
assets currently do not include any stock of the Company. Funded employer matching contributions to
the Plan for 2006, 2005, and 2004, were approximately $63,000, $49,000, and $54,000, respectively.
The net assets in the Plan, which is administered by an independent trustee, were approximately
$5,875,000, $4,755,000, and $5,060,000, at April 30, 2006, 2005, and 2004, respectively. In
conjunction with the acquisition of the assets of Servidyne Systems, Inc. in fiscal 2002, the
Company assumed a 401 (k) plan (the Servidyne Plan), which covered substantially all employees of
the Energy and Facilities Solutions Segment at that time. Under the provisions of the Servidyne
Plan, participants could contribute up to 100% of their compensation per plan year, not to exceed a
specified maximum contribution, as determined by the Internal Revenue Service. The Servidyne Plan
was frozen as of January 1, 2003, and no more employee or employer contributions were permitted
after that date. All employees of the Energy and Facilities Solutions Segment are eligible to
participate in the Companys deferred profit-sharing and 401 (k) plan, as described above.
12. SHAREHOLDERS EQUITY
In August 2000, the shareholders approved the 2000 Stock Award Plan (the 2000 Award Plan).
The 2000 Award Plan permits the grant of incentive and non-qualified stock options, non-restricted,
restricted and performance stock awards, and stock appreciation rights to directors, employees,
independent contractors, advisors, or consultants to the Company, as determined by the Compensation
Committee of the Board of Directors. The term and vesting requirements for each award are
determined by the Compensation Committee, but in no event may the term exceed ten years from the
date of grant. Incentive Stock Options under the Award Plan provide for the purchase of the
Companys common stock at not less than fair market value on the date the option is issued. The
total number of shares originally available for grant under the 2000 Award Plan was 1,100,000
shares (share amount adjusted for stock dividend). During fiscal 2006,
2005, and 2004, the Company granted restricted stock awards totaling 1,890 shares, 10,120 shares
and 11,000 shares, respectively. The weighted average fair value of the restricted stock awards
granted was $4.71, $4.54, and $4.17 in
2006, 2005, and 2004, respectively.
During fiscal years 2006, 2005, and 2004, forfeitures of restricted shares, which were not vested,
totaled 430 shares, 1,200 shares, and 1,400 shares, respectively.
The Company recognizes compensation expense ratably over the vesting periods. Stock award
compensation expense for the years ended April 30, 2006, April 30, 2005, and April 30, 2004, was
$16,331, $46,709, and $25,607, respectively. As of April 30, 2006, after forfeitures during the
year, there were 3,430 shares outstanding under restricted stock award grants that were not yet
fully vested.
The Company issued 55,000 stock warrants (amount adjusted for stock dividend), with an exercise
price of $4.64 (adjusted for stock dividend), to unrelated third parties in December 2003, of which
none have been exercised as of April 30, 2006.
In March 2006, the Companys Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to 50,000 shares of
The Companys Common Stock during the twelve-month period commencing on March 4, 2006, and ending
on March 3, 2007. In February 2005, the Companys Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of
up to 50,000 shares of Common Stock during the ensuing twelve-month period. In March 2004, the
Companys Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to 200,000 shares of Common Stock
during the ensuing twelve-month period. There were no shares repurchased during fiscal 2006, 2005,
or 2004.
13. NET EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE
Earnings per share are calculated in accordance with SFAS 128, Earnings Per Share, which requires
dual presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share on the face of the income statement for
all entities with complex capital structures. Basic and diluted weighted-average share differences
result solely from dilutive common stock options and stock warrants. Basic earnings per share are
computed by dividing net earnings by the weighted average shares outstanding during the reporting
period. Dilutive potential common shares are calculated in accordance with the treasury stock
method, which assumes that the proceeds from the exercise of all options would be used to
repurchase common shares at the current market value. The number of shares remaining after the
exercise proceeds were
43
exhausted represents the potentially dilutive effect of the options. The dilutive number of
common shares was 37,140 in fiscal 2006, 557 in fiscal 2005, and 0 in fiscal 2004. Since the
Company had losses from continuing operations for all periods presented, all stock equivalents were
antidilutive during these periods, and are therefore excluded from weighted average shares
outstanding.
On
August 25, 2005, the Company awarded a stock dividend of ten percent (10%) to all shareholders
of record on September 27, 2005. On October 11, 2005, the Company issued 335,203 shares of stock
pursuant to the stock dividend. Earnings (loss) per share have been adjusted retroactively to
present the shares issued, including the shares pursuant to the stock dividend, as outstanding for
all periods presented.

14. OPERATING SEGMENTS
The Company had three operating segments at April 30, 2006: Energy and Facilities Solutions,
Energy Services, and Real Estate. The Energy and Facilities Solutions Segment provides energy
engineering services and facility management software applications to assist customers in
optimizing facility performance and reducing building operating costs by lowering energy
consumption, increasing work efficiency, extending equipment life and improving occupant
satisfaction. The Companys engineering and analytical consulting services include LEED® building
certification; energy surveys and audits; design and specification services; MEP due diligence;
energy savings programs; utility monitoring and analysis; ENERGY STAR® labeling and benchmarking;
building commissioning; and energy simulations and modeling. The Companys proprietary maintenance
and service request software offerings include iTendant; WinSCORE®; SCORE®; Servidyne EnergyCheck®;
Servidyne Checkmate®; and Servidyne Guest Services®. The primary geographic focus for the Energy
and Facilities Solutions Segment is the continental United States, although it transacts business
internationally as well. The Energy Services Segment provides turnkey implementation of energy
saving lighting programs and other energy-related services that reduce energy consumption and
operating costs to commercial, industrial, retail, government, education, and institutional
facilities. The primary geographic focus for the Energy Services Segment is the continental United
States. The Real Estate Segment is involved in the investment, development, and re-development of
shopping centers and office properties in the Southeast and Midwest.
The operating segments have been managed separately and have maintained separate personnel, due to
the differing services historically offered by each segment, except for a shared services
accounting and information technology platform. Management of each of the segments has evaluated
and monitored the performance of the respective segment primarily based on the earnings or losses
consistent with the Companys long-term strategic objectives. The significant accounting policies
utilized by the operating segments are the same as those summarized in Note 2.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
APRIL 30, 2006, 2005, AND 2004
Total revenue by operating segment includes both revenues from unaffiliated customers, as reported
in the Companys consolidated statements of operations, and intersegment revenues, which are
generally at prices negotiated between segments.
The Company derived revenues from direct transactions with customers aggregating more than 10% of
consolidated revenues from continuing operations as follows:

Revenues from The Kmart Corporation were generated entirely from the Real Estate Segment and
revenues from Customer 2 and 3 were generated entirely from the Energy Services Segment. Revenues
from Customer 2 and 3 were less than 10% of consolidated revenues in 2006 and 2004.
Net earnings (loss) represent total revenues less operating expenses, including depreciation and
interest expense, income taxes, and earnings from discontinued operations. Selling, general and
administrative costs, and interest costs, deducted in the computation of net earnings (loss) of
each segment, represent the actual costs incurred by each respective segment.
Segment assets are those that are used in the operations of each segment, including intersegment
receivables due from other segments and assets from discontinued operations. The Parent Companys
assets are primarily its investments in subsidiaries, cash and cash equivalents, the cash surrender
value of life insurance, receivables, and assets related to deferred compensation plans. Liquid
assets attributable to the Companys former Construction Segments discontinued operations are also
included in the Parent Companys assets in 2006, 2005, and 2004.

Company elected not to use the proceeds to purchase an additional income-producing property, and
the proceeds were released to the Company. The sale is recorded in rental income on the
accompanying consolidated statements of operations.
On January 30, 2006, the Company closed on the sale of its former medical office building in

assigned to and are being held by a qualified third party intermediary. The Company currently
intends to use the net proceeds from this sale in a tax-deferred exchange to acquire an income
producing property, which would qualify the sale for federal income tax deferral under Internal
Revenue Code Section 1031. The sale is recorded in gain on sale of income-producing real estate in
discontinued operations on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.
On December 22, 2005, the Company closed on the sale of a 4.7 acre tract of land in Louisville,

On April 18, 2005, the Company closed on the sale of its former shopping center located in
Jackson, Michigan, for a sales price of $7.4 million, resulting in a pre-tax gain of approximately
$4.1 million. After selling expenses, repayment of the mortgage note payable of approximately $2.4
million, and other associated costs, the sale generated net cash proceeds of approximately $4.78
million. At the time of the sale, the Company had intended to use the net proceeds from this sale
to acquire an additional income-producing property, in order to qualify the sale for federal income
tax deferral under the Internal Revenue Code Section 1031. Accordingly, at closing, the cash
proceeds were placed with a qualified third party intermediary. In July 2005, the Company elected
not to acquire a replacement income-producing property. The proceeds of $4.78 million were included
in restricted cash at April 30, 2005, and subsequently in October 2005, the cash proceeds were

time of the sale, the Company had intended to use the net proceeds from this sale to acquire an
additional income-producing property in order to qualify for Internal Revenue Code Section 1031
federal income tax deferral. Accordingly, at closing, the cash proceeds were placed with a
qualified third party intermediary; subsequently, however, the Company did not consummate an
acquisition of a replacement income-producing property, and the proceeds of approximately $3.49
million were released to the Company in May 2005. This sale is recorded in gain on sale of

In fiscal 2004, the Company changed the estimated useful life of one of its proprietary
facility management software applications, resulting in a charge to earnings of approximately
$267,000. This expense is recorded in selling, general and administrative expenses in the
accompanying statement of operations for the Energy and Facilities Solutions Segment for that
fiscal year.

The Energy and Facilities Solutions Segment has capitalized $687,969, $403,995, and $9,212
for the development of proprietary facility management software in fiscal 2006, 2005, and 2004,
respectively.

Goodwill increased $460,475 from April 30, 2004, to April 30, 2005, due to: (1) $313,035 from
the acquisition of Building Performance Engineers, Inc. (see Note 14. Acquisitions); and (2)
$147,440 in purchase price adjustments from prior acquisitions.
18. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
The Company is subject to various legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary
course of business. While the resolution of such matters cannot be predicted with certainty, the
Company believes that the final outcome of such matters will not have a material adverse effect on
the Companys financial position or results of operations.
Effective April 30, 2003, the Company terminated an employment agreement and entered into a new
retirement agreement with a former officer and director of the Company. Beginning May 1, 2003, the
new agreement required the Company to pay a retirement benefit of approximately $87,000 through
August 19, 2003, and approximately $100,000 per year thereafter for a term of four years ending on
August 19, 2007. In addition, the Company continues to provide certain medical insurance benefits
through the term of the retirement agreement. The new agreement would terminate early in the event
of the death of the retiree.
On June 28, 2006, the Company received a letter disputing a portion of the amounts the Company is
owed in conjunction with a signed letter agreement and promissory note receivable. The Company
believes that the terms of the note are unambiguous and intends to vigorously assert its claims. In
the unlikely event the Company was unable to recover the full amount of the note, the Company could
incur a pre-tax bad debt loss of up to $67,000 as a result.

20. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
On July 14, 2006, Stewartsboro Crossing, LLC, a newly-formed wholly-owned subsidiary of the
Company, acquired a shopping center located in Smyrna, Tennessee. The Company used the net cash
proceeds from the sale of its former medical office building, which proceeds had been held in
escrow by a qualified third party intermediary, as well as bank financing to purchase the asset for
approximately $5.2 million, excluding the costs associated with completing the transaction, in
order to qualify the sale and acquisition as a tax-free exchange under Internal Revenue Code
Section 1031.
The Company has entered into a contract to sell the Companys former manufacturing facility located
in Atlanta, Georgia, at a gain. The asset is classified in real estate held for sale for future
development or sale in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The contract specifies a
closing date in fiscal 2007. The sale is subject to customary conditions, and there can be no
assurance that the contract will close.

ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING
AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE
None.
ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Management has evaluated the Companys disclosure and controls and procedures as defined by
Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, as of the end
of the period covered by this report. This evaluation was carried out with the participation of the
Companys Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer. No system of controls, no matter how
well designed and operated, can provide absolute assurance that the objectives of the system of
controls are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that the system of
controls has operated effectively in all cases. The Companys disclosure controls and procedures,
however, are designed to provide reasonable assurance that the objectives of disclosure controls
and procedures are met.
Based on managements evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded
that the Companys disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period
covered by this report to provide reasonable assurance that the objectives of disclosure controls
and procedures are met.
There was no change in the Companys internal control over financial reporting that occurred during
the Companys fourth fiscal quarter for its fiscal year ended April 30, 2006, which has materially
affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Companys internal control over
financial reporting.
ITEM 9B. OTHER INFORMATION
None.
