NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 2008 AND 2007
 
 

Note 1 – Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements


The information furnished in this report is unaudited and reflects all adjustments which are normal recurring adjustments and, which in the opinion of management, are necessary to fairly present the operating results for the interim periods. The operating results for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the operating results to be expected for the full fiscal year. The consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007, previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
 

NOTE 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Nature of Business

Multiband Corporation and subsidiaries (the Company) was incorporated in Minnesota in September 1975. The Company provides voice, data and video services to multi-dwelling unit customers and provides video services to single family home customers. The Company's products and services are sold to customers located throughout the United States of America.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern that contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. For the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, the Company incurred net losses of $807,957 and $2,642,374, respectively. At June 30, 2008, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $82,943,200. The Company's ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on it ultimately achieving profitability and/or raising additional capital. Management intends to sell certain assets on a strategic basis for prices agreeable to the Company and/or obtain additional debt or equity capital to meet all of its existing cash obligations and fund commitments on planned Multiband projects; however, there can be no assurance that the sources will be available or available on terms favorable to the Company. Management anticipates that the impact of the actions listed below will generate sufficient cash flows to pay current liabilities, long-term debt and capital and operating lease obligations and fund the Company's future operations through 2008:

1.
Reduction of operating expenses by controlling payroll, professional fees and other general and administrative expenses.
 
2.
Sale of video assets on a strategic basis. The Company, based on recent transactions, believes there is an active market for its video subscriber assets. The Company believes it can sell these assets, under certain circumstances, at prices at or above their current carrying value. However, there is no guarantee these sales will ultimately be favorable to the Company.
 
3.
Solicit additional equity investment in the Company by either issuing preferred or common stock.
 
4.
Continue to market Multiband services and acquire additional multi-dwelling unit customers.
 
5.
Control capital expenditures by contracting Multiband services and equipment through a landlord-owned equipment program.
 
6.
Delivery of video services to residents of single family homes. Effective March 1, 2008, the Company purchased 51% of the outstanding stock of Michigan Microtech, Inc. (MMT), formerly a wholly owned subsidiary of DirecTECH Holding Company Inc. (DTHC) (see Note 4). MMT installs DirecTV video services in single family homes. Historically MMT has been profitable. The Company anticipates that by combining MMT operations with Multiband operations that it will achieve a beneficial impact to its consolidated cash flows and operating results. However, there is no guarantee that these combined results will ultimately be favorable to the Company.
 
7.
Expansion of call center support via sales of call center services to both existing and future system operators and to buyers of the Company’s video subscribers.

The minority interest on the consolidated balance sheet and statement of operations represents the 49% of activity for the period which the Company does not own. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of MMT. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with the Securities Exchange Commission’s Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104 (SAB 104) “Revenue Recognition”, which requires that four basic criteria be met before revenue can be recognized: (i) persuasive evidence of a customer arrangement exists; (ii) the price is fixed or determinable; (iii) collectability is reasonably assured; and (iv) product delivery has occurred or services have been rendered. The Company recognizes revenue as products are shipped based on FOB shipping point terms when title passes to customers.

The Company earns revenues from four sources: 1) Voice, video and data communications products which are sold and installed, 2) Multiband user charges to multiple dwelling units, 3) MDU earns revenue primarily through the activation of and residual fees on video programming services provided to residents of multiple dwelling units; and 4) MMT earns revenue primarily through the installation and service of DirecTV (DTV) video programming for residents of single family houses.

Customers contract for both the purchase and installation of voice and data networking technology products and certain video technologies products. Revenue is recognized when the products are delivered and installed and the customer has accepted and has the ability to fulfill the terms.

Revenue generated from activation of video programming services is earned in the month of activation. According to Multiband's Master System Operator agreement with DirecTV, in the event that a customer cancels within the first 12 months of service, DirecTV has the right to chargeback the Company for a portion of the activation fees received. In accordance with Securities Exchange Commission SAB 104, the Company has estimated the potential charge back of commissions received on activation fees during the past 12 months based on historical percentages of customer cancellations and has included that amount as a reduction of revenue. Residual income is earned as services are provided by DirecTV through its system operators. As a master system operator for DirecTV, the Company earns a fixed percentage based on net cash received by DirecTV for recurring monthly services and a variable amount depending on the number of activations in a given month. The Company’s master system operator contract with DirecTV also permits the Company to earn revenues through its control of other system operators who are unable to provide DirecTV video programming services without the Company’s performance.

MMT has a home services provider (HSP) agreement with DirecTV which allows MMT to install and activate DTV video programming services for residents of single family homes. As a DirecTV HSP, MMT earns revenue for installing and servicing DTV video customers pursuant to predetermined rates set by DirecTV which may vary from time to time. Revenue is recognized upon completion of the delivery and installation of equipment.

The Company reports the aforementioned voice, data, and video revenues on a gross basis based on the following factors: the Company has the primary obligation in the arrangement with its customers; the Company controls the pricing of its services; the Company performs customer service for the agreements; the Company approves customers; and the Company assumes the risk of payment for services provided.

We offer some products and services that are provided by third party vendors. We review the relationship between us, the vendor and the end customer on an individual basis to assess whether revenue should be reported on a gross or net basis. As an example, our resold satellite digital television revenue is reported on a net basis.

The Company has determined that the accounting policies for income recognition described above were in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) Issue No. 99-19, “Reporting Revenue Gross as a Principal versus Net as an Agent”. EITF No. 99-19 employs multi-factor tests to determine whether amounts charged to customers in respect of certain expenses incurred should be included in revenues or netted against such expenses.

In June 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) ratified the consensus of Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 06-3, “How Taxes Collected from Customers and Remitted to Governmental Authorities Should Be Presented in the Income Statement (That Is, Gross versus Net Presentation)” (EITF 06-3). EITF 06-3 concluded that the presentation of taxes imposed on revenue-producing transactions (sales, use, value added and excise taxes) on either a gross (included in revenues and costs) or a net (excluded from revenues) basis is an accounting policy that should be disclosed. The Company’s policy is to present taxes imposed on revenue-producing transactions on a net basis.

Revenue generated by the support center to service third party subscribers by providing billing and call center support services is recognized in the period the related services are provided.

Multiband, Rainbow, MDU and MBUSA user charges are recognized as revenues in the period the related services are provided in accordance with SAB 104. Any amounts billed prior to services being provided are reported as deferred service obligations and revenues. MMT installation and services revenues are recognized in the period the related services are provided in accordance with SAB 104.

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

We periodically evaluate goodwill and other intangible and long-lived assets for potential impairment indicators. Our judgments regarding the existence of impairment indicators are based on legal factors, market conditions and operational performance of our business segments. Future events could cause us to conclude that impairment indicators exist and that goodwill and other intangible and long-lived assets are impaired. Any resulting impairment loss could have a material adverse impact on our financial condition and results of operations. Goodwill was $116,757 and $16,757 at June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, respectively, and is recorded as part of our Multiband Corp. and MCS segments. The increase in goodwill during 2008 is due to the purchase US Install (see Note 4).

Due to the abandonment of a right of entry intangible asset, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $7,406 and $65,452 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008. This charge was determined based upon the net book value of assets to be abandoned.

Share-Based Compensation

The Company recognizes share-based compensation costs on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the award, which is generally the option vesting term. For the three months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, total share-based compensation expense of $150,548 ($.02 per share) and $157,685 ($.02 per share) was included in selling, general and administrative expenses, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, total share-based compensation expense of $362,126 ($.04 per share) and $391,433 ($.06 per share) was included in selling, general and administrative expenses, respectively. Estimated share based compensation expense for the years ending December 31, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011 and 2012 is $713,026, $95,473, $14,939, $503 and $0, respectively. This is an estimate based on options currently outstanding and therefore this projected expense could be more in the future.

In determining the compensation cost of the options granted during the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, as specified by SFAS No. 123R, the fair value of each option grant has been estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and the weighted average assumptions used in these calculations are summarized as follows:

The Company’s determination of fair value of share-based payment awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model is affected by the Company’s stock price as well as assumptions regarding a number of variables. These variables include, but are not limited to the Company’s expected stock price volatility, and actual and projected stock option exercise behaviors and forfeitures.

The Company issued 22,500 shares of restricted stock in the amount of $23,625 to two officers of the Company. The value of the restricted stock was established by the market price on the date of grant. These restricted shares are immediately vesting and were issued as performance bonuses pursuant to the Company’s Employee Stock Compensation Plan.

Net Income (Loss) per Common Share

Basic net income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing the loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the reporting period. Diluted loss per common share is computed by dividing loss attributable to common stockholders by the sum of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus all additional common stock that would have been outstanding if potentially dilutive common shares related to common share equivalents (stock options, stock warrants, convertible preferred shares, and issued but not outstanding restricted stock) had been issued. All options, warrants, convertible preferred shares, and restricted stock outstanding during the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007 were excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per share as their effects were anti-dilutive due to the Company’s net losses for the periods.

Segment Reporting

A business segment is a distinguishable component of an enterprise that is engaged in providing an individual product or service or a group of related products or services and that is subject to risks and returns that are different from those of other business segments. Management believes that the Company has three operating segments, MCS, where the Company bills voice, data and video subscribers as a principal; MDU where the Company as a master service operator for DirecTV receives net cash payments for managing video subscribers through its network of system operators and HSP (Home Service Provider), where the Company receives net cash payments for the installation and service of DirecTV (DTV) video programming for residents of single family houses. These video subscribers are billed by DirecTV.

NOTE 3 – Sales Transactions

 
Effective March 1, 2007, the Company, pursuant to an asset purchase agreement entered into October 19, 2006 (the “agreement”), completed the sale of substantially all of its video assets located in California to Consolidated Smart Broadband Systems, LLC (CSBS). The purchase price paid by CSBS was $1,214,000 at closing plus an additional $100,000, paid on March 30, 2007 consisting of cash proceeds of $757,731 and direct payments to lenders of $556,269 (including $22,338 of imputed interest).

In accordance with SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets”, the Company classified the assets as held for sale, and recorded an impairment charge for the year ended December 31, 2006, that was determined based upon the excess net book value of assets sold over the known proceeds from the sale. Any consideration received for the assets during future accounting periods based upon the earnout formula will be recognized as a gain on sale of assets in that period. The results of the sale of the California assets resulted in a loss of $40,110, which is included in the selling, general and administrative expenses of the accompanying consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2007.

Effective March 31, 2007, the Company completed the sale of substantially all of its video assets located in Ohio to DirecTECH MDU (Dtech). The purchase price paid by Dtech was $745,790. The purchase price consisted of the assumption of a note payable for the gross value of $329,036 and $416,754 cash paid at closing on April 20, 2007. The sale of the Ohio assets resulted in a gain on sale in the amount of $324,626, which is included in the selling, general and administrative expenses during the three months ended March 31, 2007. The proceeds of $683,897, including assumed liabilities of $267,143, less the net book value of the MCS segment assets sold amounted to a gain on sale of $324,626.

These sales were not reported as a discontinued operation because the assets sold did not constitute a segment or component of the Company’s business, and the Company retained assets and on-going service rights associated with the video subscribers.

NOTE 4 – Business Acquisitions


Effective March 1, 2008, the Company purchased, pursuant to a Supplemental Agreement and Plan of Share Exchange, 51% of the outstanding shares of Michigan Microtech, Inc. (MMT), previously a wholly owned subsidiary of DirecTECH Holding Company, Inc. (DTHC) which equaled 1,020,000 MMT common shares. The consideration paid for the shares was 1,490,000 shares of restricted Multiband common stock valued at $3,854,000 and a promissory note for $2,246,000. The note is secured by the aforementioned MMT common shares, which carries a stated interest rate of 5% per annum and is due February 2013. The Multiband shares, via negotiation and mutual agreement between buyer and seller, were valued at $2.59 per share. The seller received certain piggyback registration rights with regards to the Multiband shares. The note payable was recorded net of a discount for imputed interest of 3% which amortizes monthly as part of interest expense. The total discount for imputed interest amounted to $317,310. The Company purchased MMT to enter the market of installing video services in single family homes. The Company, on a preliminary and unaudited basis, allocated the purchase price to the fair values of MMT assets and liabilities. As part of the acquisition, the Company recognized an intangible asset of $2,849,266 related to MMT’s HSP agreement with DirecTV. The Company will amortize this intangible over the remaining 38 month term of MMT’s home services provided contract with DirecTV. The term of the contract will automatically renew as of April 30, 2011 for additional one year periods unless either MMT or DirecTV gives written notice of termination at least 90 days in advance of expiration of the then current term. Also, all signing parties to the October 31, 2007 Plan of Merger Agreement involving Multiband Corporation and DirecTECH Holding Company, Inc. have agreed to extend the time to reach a definitive agreement in the matter from March 31, 2008 to December 31, 2008. Due to a number of conditions precedent to completion of the merger including, but not limited to, shareholder approval from both parties, Multiband cannot deem it likely as of this date that the merger as originally structured in the 4th quarter of 2007 will be completed.

Effective March 1, 2008, the Company purchased 100% of the assets of US Install LLC in exchange for $95,000 in cash plus 37,879 shares of restricted Multiband common stock valued at $102,516, which is included in accrued liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet and is to be issued in August, 2008. The Company also incurred acquisition expense of $1,000 related to this purchase. In addition, the parties executed employment agreements with US Install’s two principals. The parties also executed noncompetition and nonsolicitation agreements with each principal in exchange for cash consideration of $2,500 per agreement. The Company allocated the purchase price as follows:

Proceeds for the acquisition were obtained via an unsecured promissory note in the amount of $100,000 between Multiband and Bas Mattingly Master, LLC, a trust controlled by J. Bas Mattingly, chairman of DTHC, with DTHC as a 49% owner of MMT. The note carries an interest rate of 7% per annum and is due August 20, 2009. The Company purchased US Install LLC to diversify its revenue sources.

NOTE 6 – Securities Available for Sale


As of December 31, 2007, Multiband had the voting rights for and was holding in trust 58,161 common shares of URON for various contingent rights holders whose rights were tied to potential future warrant exercises or preferred stock conversions. As of February 4, 2008, certain aforementioned contingent rights were not exercised by the various holders; therefore Multiband now owns 37,994 shares of URON. As a result, Multiband recorded the fair value of URON shares based on quoted market prices as an unrealized gain.

NOTE 10 – Commitments and Contingencies

Legal proceedings

The Company is subject to legal actions that arise in the ordinary course of its business. The Company accrues for such litigation when a loss is considered probable and the amount of such loss, or a range of loss, can be reasonably estimated.

In July 2008, the Company received a complaint dated May 2008 filed by various individuals against MMT and DTHC alleging violations of state and federal statutory payroll overtime law. The Company believes it pays overtime properly when earned and intends to vigorously defend the allegations. At this time, the Company could not reliably estimate a range of loss, if any, with regards to the matter.

Significant relationship

The Company is a master agent for DirecTV pursuant to a system operator agreement with DirecTV dated August 2005. The initial term of the agreement is for three years and provides for two additional two-year renewals if the Company has a minimum number of paying video subscribers in its system operator network. As of August 2008, the Company believes it has met the requirements for automatic renewal. The Company, via MMT, also has a separate home service provider agreement with DirecTV ending April 30, 2011.  The term of the MMT contract with DirecTV will automatically renew as of May 1, 2011 for additional one year periods unless either MMT or DirecTV gives written notice of termination at least 90 days in advance of expiration of the then current term. Termination of the Company's DirecTV agreements would have a material adverse impact on the Company's on-going operations. Revenues generated from DirecTV were 92.2% and 89.8% of total revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, respectively. Revenues generated from DirecTV for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007 were 64.2% and 60.8% of total revenue, respectively.

Gain on extinguishment of debt

In January 2008, the Company negotiated payment of the remaining balance of the note payable to Vern Swedin by issuing 7,500 shares of common stock at $2.60 per share in settlement of this debt resulting in a gain on extinguishment of debt of $29,965. This modification was accounted for as a gain on extinguishment of debt in accordance with EITF 96-19, “Debtor’s Accounting for a Modification or Exchange of Debt Instruments”. This amount is included in other income on the consolidated statement of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2008.

Current portion of long-term debt

As of June 30, 2008, the Company failed to meet one of the compliance covenants of its lender, Convergent Capital, with respect to having minimum net worth of five million dollars at June 30, 2008. Convergent Capital provided the Company with a waiver for the covenant for the six months ended June 30, 2008. The Company’s management believes it is probable that the violation will not be cured at measurement dates that are within the next twelve months. In accordance with EITF 86-30 “Classification of obligations when a violation is waived by the creditor”, the Company has classified the debt as current as of June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007.

DirecTECH Holding Company Bank Loan
 
In May 2007 (as subsequently amended in June 2007, December 2007 and June 2008), DirecTECH Holding Company (DTHC) and its subsidiaries, including Michigan Microtech, Inc. (MMT) which, prior to March 1, 2008, was 100% owned by DTHC, entered into a loan and security agreement with MB Financial Bank, N.A. (MB Bank). Multiband Corporation, effective March 1, 2008, owns 51% of the common stock of MMT. At the time of Multiband’s purchase of the MMT stock in February 2008, Multiband received a release of the MB Bank’s lien against the MMT stock. However, MMT remains an obligor on the overall MB Bank loan. To date, MMT has not utilized any of the loan proceeds. Based on the Company’s interpretation of Securities Exchange Commission’s Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 5J (SAB 5J), none of the DTHC bank loan debt is reflected in MMT’s financial statements which have been consolidated with Multiband Corporation’s financial statements for the four months ended June 30, 2008.

On May 2, 2008, MB Bank filed a complaint against DTHC and various affiliates in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois, Eastern Division seeking, amongst other things, to recover the amounts due under the notes. At the time of the filing of the complaint, balances due under all facilities totaled $15,340,000, which included a balance due on a revolving loan of $3,500,000. On June 18, 2008, MB Bank and DTHC and various affiliates including MMT, entered into a Forbearance Agreement, which expires on October 10, 2008, which sets forth revised terms and conditions, including the dismissal of the court action without prejudice. Under this Forbearance Agreement, MMT remains an obligor on the overall MB Bank loan. Revised terms include monthly principal payments of $236,667 beginning July 15, 2008. In addition, commencing April 21, 2008, interest on all loans will be calculated using the default rate in the loan agreements (ranges from 9.37-9.62% as of June 18, 2008) and will be payable on a monthly basis beginning on July 15, 2008. The agreement also contains certain reporting requirements and financial covenants that DTHC must adhere to during the period of the agreement. As of June 30, 2008, the total loan balance equals $12,669,564.

Auto leases

The Company leases substantially all of its fleet vehicles under operating leases from one lessor. Each lease commences upon the in-service date of the vehicle and requires scheduled lease payments to be paid monthly for one year. After one year, the Company has the option to renew the open ended lease for one year renewal periods or surrender the leased vehicle to the lessor to be sold. If the net proceeds of such sale exceed the vehicle’s then depreciated value, the lessee receives the benefit of such excess. If there is a deficiency upon such sale, then lessee is required to pay the deficiency as additional rent to lessor. The Company has entered this agreement jointly and severally with various subsidiaries of DTHC. For the four months ended June 30, 2008, the Company’s operating lease expense under the lease totaled approximately $367,000.

Guaranty

On March 1, 2006, Corporate Technologies, LLC (CTLLC), a subsidiary of North Central Equity, LLC, the purchaser of the MBS business segment, signed a lease with Lexstar Tower I Limited Partnership whereby CTLLC assumed the lease obligation for substantially all of the first floor space the Company is renting in Fargo, North Dakota for the period beginning March 1, 2006 to February 28, 2011. Pursuant to the aforementioned lease, the Company entered into a guaranty whereby the Company, in the event of a default or early termination of the lease by CTLLC, is obligated to perform CTLLC’s lease obligation during months 43-60 of the lease. This guaranty has no effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007. However, should Multiband eventually have to perform on the guaranty in the future, it could be liable for up to $348,881 in rent payments plus any associated charges such as property taxes and common area maintenance. The Company has evaluated the accounting guidance of FIN 45 “Guarantor’s Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees” and has determined that it does not apply to this guaranty.

NOTE 11 – Income Taxes

At June 30, 2008, the Company’s federal and state net operating loss carryforwards were estimated to be approximately $46,662,000 and $38,525,000, respectively.

Due to Multiband’s purchase of 51% of MMT’s stock, effective March 1, 2008, MMT will no longer file consolidated tax returns with its former parent DTHC but will file as a single entity as it no longer meets the 80% ownership required for tax consolidation. Therefore, MMT will not be able to utilize the tax loss carryforwards of Multiband Corporation. As of and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, MMT has recorded income tax expense of $434,300 and $462,800, respectively.

The Company has adopted FASB Interpretation 48 (FIN 48), “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes” to address the non-comparability in reporting tax assets and liabilities resulting from a lack of specific guidance in FASB Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109 (SFAS 109), “Accounting for Income Taxes” on the uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements. Specifically, FIN 48 prescribes (a) a consistent recognition threshold and (b) a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return, and provides related guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting interim periods, disclosure and transition. To the extent interest and penalties would be assessed by taxing authorities on any underpayment of income taxes, such amounts would be accrued and classified as a component of income tax expenses on the consolidated statement of operations. There was no impact on the consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007 related to FIN 48. The Company’s federal and state tax returns are potentially open to examinations for fiscal years 2004-2006. The Company has no significant unrecognized tax benefits as of June 30, 2008 that would reasonably be expected to affect our effective tax rate during the next twelve months.


NOTE 12 – Related Party Transactions

Proceeds for the acquisition of US Install Inc. by the Company completed in February, 2008 were obtained via an unsecured promissory note in the amount of $100,000 between Multiband and Bas Mattingly Master, LLC, a trust controlled by J. Bas Mattingly, chairman of DTHC, which is a 49% owner of MMT. The note carries an interest rate of 7% per annum and is due August 20, 2009.

MMT leases office space from two individuals that have ownership via related trusts in DTHC. DTHC owns 49% of MMT as a minority interest shareholder (see Note 4). Lease payments amount to $3,300 per month plus expenses, expiring in April 2009.

Multiband and its subsidiaries lease principal offices located at 2000 44th Street SW, Fargo, ND 58013. The Fargo base rate ranges from $7,621 to $8,466 per month. The Fargo property is owned in part by David Ekman, Chief Information Officer, Multiband.

Bernard Schafer is a director of both DTHC and Multiband. DTHC is the minority shareholder of MMT (see Note 4).

Multiband and DTHC perform certain management and information systems functions for one another pursuant to management and employee leasing agreements. DTHC is the minority shareholder of MMT (see Note 4).

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

From time to time, the Company may publish forward-looking statements relating to such matters as anticipated financial performance, business prospects, product pricing, management for growth, integration of acquisitions, technological developments, new products, and similar matters. Words such as “anticipates”, “may”, “will”, “should”, “believes”, “estimates”, “expects”, “intends”, “plans”, “predicts”, “will likely result”, “will continue”, or similar expressions identify forward-looking statements. The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides a safe harbor for forward-looking statements including those made in this statement. In order to comply with the terms of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act, the Company notes that a variety of factors could cause the Company's actual results and experience to differ materially from the anticipated results or Company's forward-looking statements.

The risks and uncertainties that may affect the operations, performance, developments and results of the Company's business include the following: national and regional economic conditions; pending and future legislation affecting IT and telecommunications industries; market acceptance of the Company's products and services; the Company's products and services; the Company's continued ability to provide integrated communication solutions for customers in a dynamic industry; the Company’s ability to successfully integrate and operate recently acquired operations, and other competitive factors.

Because these and other factors could affect the Company's operating results, past financial performance should not necessarily be considered as a reliable indicator of future performance and anticipated future period results.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATION
 
OUR COMPANY

Multiband Corporation (the Company), is a Minnesota corporation formed in September 1975. The Company has three operating segments: 1) Multiband Consumer Services (MCS, legally known as Multiband Subscriber Services, Inc.), which encompasses the subsidiary corporations, Multiband USA, Inc., and Rainbow Satellite Group, LLC, 2) Multi-Dwelling Unit (MDU, legally known as Minnesota Digital Universe, Inc.); and 3) Home Service Provider (HSP, legally known as Michigan Microtech, Inc (MMT)).

The Company completed an initial public offering in June 1984. In November 1992, the Company became a non-reporting company under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. In July 2000, the Company regained its reporting company status. In December 2000, The Company stock began trading on the NASDAQ stock exchange under the symbol VICM. In July 2004, the symbol was changed to MBND concurrent with the Company’s name change from Vicom, Incorporated to Multiband Corporation.

The Company’s website is located at: www.multibandusa.com.

From its inception until December 31, 1998, the Company operated as a telephone interconnect company only. Effective December 31, 1998, the Company acquired the assets of the Midwest region of Enstar Networking Corporation (ENC), a data cabling and networking company. In late 1999, in the context of a forward triangular merger, the Company, to expand its range of computer products and related services, purchased the stock of Ekman, Inc. d/b/a Corporate Technologies, and merged Ekman, Inc. into the newly formed surviving corporation, Corporate Technologies USA, Inc. (MBS). MBS provided voice, data and video systems and services to business and government. The MBS business segment was sold effective April 1, 2005. The Company’s MCS segment began in February 2000. MCS, the Company’s continuing operating division, provides voice, data and video services to multiple dwelling units (MDU), including apartment buildings, condominiums and time share resorts. During 2004, the Company purchased video subscribers in a number of separate transactions, the largest one being Rainbow Satellite Group, LLC. During 2004, the Company also purchased the stock of Minnesota Digital Universe, Inc., (MDU segment) which made the Company the largest master service operator in MDU’s for DirecTV satellite television in the United States. Effective March 1, 2008, the Company purchased 51% of the outstanding stock of MMT. MMT installs DTV video services in single family homes. At July 25, 2008, the Company had approximately 96,569 owned and managed subscriptions with an additional 20,220 subscribers supported by the call center.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Revenues

Total revenues increased 175.5% to $10,805,707 for the quarter ended June 30, 2008 as compared to $3,921,726 for the quarter ended June 30, 2007. Revenues for the six month period ended June 30, 2008 increased 98.9% to $16,519,936 from $8,306,681 for the same period in 2007. This overall increase in revenues is primarily due to the purchase of MMT in March 2008, with revenues for the three and four month periods ended June 30, 2008 of $6,604,545 and $8,584,501, respectively, offset by sales of approximately 13,000 owned subscriptions which occurred throughout the first six months of 2007 in efforts to strategically sell unprofitable owned assets as prudent and redeploy the proceeds from those assets into facilitating growth in the Company’s managed subscriber services including our support center and our master system operator program.

Revenues in the second quarter of 2008, for the MCS segment, decreased 40.2% to $840,466 as compared to $1,404,398 in the second quarter of 2007. Revenues for the six month period ended June 30, 2008, for the MCS segment, decreased 48.1% to $1,689,028 from $3,256,478 for the same period in 2007. These decreases were primarily due to the aforementioned sales of owned subscriptions offset by an increase in call center revenue. In 2008, the Company expects MCS revenues to remain relatively constant throughout the balance of the year.

Revenues in the second quarter of 2008 for the MDU segment increased 33.5% to $3,360,696 as compared to $2,517,328 in the second quarter of 2007. Revenues for the six month period ended June 30, 2008, for the MDU segment, increased 23.7% to $6,246,407 from $5,050,203 for the same period in 2007. These increases are primarily due to the DTV subsidies for property equipment upgrades and increased activity from a large system operator. The Company believes it can ultimately increase revenues by selling its support center services to its network of system operators and by providing ancillary programs for voice and data services to that same network. Due to demand for high definition television services and the aforementioned DTV subsidies for high definition upgrades MDU revenues are expected to remain above 2007 levels for the balance of 2008.

Page 20

 
Revenues for the three month period ended June 30, 2008 for the HSP segment, was $6,604,545 in comparison to $0 for the same period in 2007. Revenues for the six month period ended June 30, 2008, for the HSP segment (acquired March 1, 2008), were $8,584,501 from $0 for the same period in 2007. This increase is due to the purchase of MMT (see Note 4). The Company expects that revenues in the HSP segment will continue at a rate consistent with the three months ended June 30, 2008 throughout the balance of 2008.

Cost of Products and Services (Exclusive of depreciation and amortization)

The Company's cost of products and services, increased by 241.7% to $6,393,571 for the quarter ended June 30, 2008, as compared to $1,871,238 for the similar quarter last year. For the six months ended June 30, 2008, cost of products and services were $10,213,769 compared to $4,049,284 in the prior year, a 152.2% increase. Overall cost of products and services as a percentage of revenue did increase due, in part, to the purchase of MMT with costs for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2008 of $4,299,560 and $5,737,141, respectively. Other factors affecting costs included specific vendor price increases without a corresponding increase in price to customers, certain commission payments, and allocation of certain support center costs to cost of products and services. These increases were offset by a decrease in costs related to a decrease in programming and circuit charges due to a decreased subscriber number.

Cost of products and services for the MCS segment for the quarter were $591,570 compared to $1,059,799 in the same quarter last year, a 44.2% decrease. For the six months ended June 30, 2008, cost of products and services were $1,195,879 for the MCS segment, compared to $2,092,188 in the prior year, a 42.8% decrease. In 2008, the decrease in cost of products and services in the MCS segment is directly related to a decrease in programming and circuit charges between the comparable periods due to sales of approximately 13,000 owned subscriptions which occurred throughout the first six months of 2007.

Cost of products and services for the MDU segment for the quarter were $1,502,441 compared to $811,439 in the same quarter last year, an 85.2% increase. For the six months ended June 30, 2008, cost of products and services were $3,280,749 for the MDU segment, compared to $1,957,096 in the prior year, a 67.6% increase. The increase in cost of products and services in the MDU segment is primarily related to an increase in revenue generated by the system operators along with a change in revenue mix and certain commission payments offset by a reduction in accrued liabilities for vendor chargebacks of $630,800 during the quarter ended June 30, 2008 versus a reduction of $472,614 in the same quarter last year. In 2008, the Company expects MDU cost of products and services to increase slightly throughout the balance of the year due to certain commission payments.

Cost of products and services for the HSP segment for the quarter were $4,299,560 compared to $0 in the same quarter last year. For the six months ended June 30, 2008, cost of products and services were $5,737,141 for the HSP segment (acquired March 1, 2008), compared to the $0 in the prior year. This increase is due to the purchase of MMT (see Note 4). Gross margin on the HSP business is 33.2% which the Company expects to continue through the end of 2008.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased 10.9% to $2,560,755 in the quarter ended June 30, 2008, compared to $2,308,426 in the prior year’s quarter due primarily to the addition of the HSP segment which did not operate during the comparable period in 2007. Selling, general and administrative expenses were, as a percentage of revenues, 23.7% for the quarter ended June 30, 2008 and 58.8% for the similar period a year ago. This percentage decrease is primarily due to decreases in payroll and employee expenses, property maintenance expenses, and outside service expenses between the comparable periods due to the sale of subscribers. The Company anticipates that for the remainder of 2008, selling, general and administrative expenses will remain consistent with second quarter levels.

For the six months ended June 30, 2008, selling, general and administrative expenses decreased 6.0% to $4,416,038 compared to $4,697,682 for the six months ended June 30, 2007. This decrease is due to the reduction in payroll and employee expenses, property maintenance expenses, and outside service expenses offset by the additional four months of the newly acquired HSP segment. As a percentage of revenue, selling general and administrative expenses were 26.7% for the six months ended June 30, 2008, compared to 56.5% for the same period in 2007. This percentage decrease is primarily due to the decreases in payroll and employee expenses, property maintenance expenses and outside service expenses between the comparable periods.

Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation and amortization expense decreased 11.7% to $879,055 for the quarter ended June 30, 2008 compared to $995,068 in the prior year’s quarter. For the six months ended June 30, 2008, depreciation and amortization expense decreased 20.9% to $1,616,762 compared to $2,044,766 for the six months ended June 30, 2007. This decrease in depreciation and amortization is due to the sale of tangible and intangible assets in various states (Note 3). Depreciation and amortization expense is expected to remain comparable to second quarter through the remainder 2008.

Loss from Operations

The Company, in the second quarter of 2008, earned income from operations for its combined operating business segments of $964,920 versus a loss of $1,253,006 during the prior year’s period. Income from operations from said segments was $207,915 during the first six months of 2008, compared to a loss of $2,485,051 during the first half of 2007. The MDU segment showed a profit from operations of $1,308,043 and $1,862,868 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 compared to profits of $1,180,906 and $2,047,340 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007. For the second quarter of 2008, the MCS segment showed a loss from operations of $656,619 compared to a loss of $1,361,089 for the same quarter last year. For the six months ended June 30, 2008, the MCS segment showed a loss from operations of $1,200,791 compared to a loss of $2,350,643 for the same period in 2007. The Multiband Corporation segment, which has no revenues, showed a loss from operations of $914,961 for the three months ended June 30, 2008 and $1,743,185 for the six months ended June 30, 2008 compared to losses of $1,072,823 and $2,181,748 for the same periods last year. For the second quarter of 2008, the HSP segment showed a profit from operations of $1,228,457, compared to $0 in the same period last year. For the six months ended June 30, 2008, profit was $1,289,023 for the HSP segment, compared to the $0 in the prior year. The HSP segment did not exist in 2007 so there is no comparable (Note 4). The Multiband Corporation loss is expected to continue in future periods as corporate overhead is expected to remain consistent with current levels. The Company expects the MDU segment profitability in future periods to stabilize as the year to date reduction in profits for this segment has been significantly impacted by agent fees paid for owned subscriber sales. These sales have now been completed. In addition to the sale of subscribers, the Company hopes that it can continue to mitigate its loss in the MCS segment by reducing related payroll expenses. At the same time, the Company will look to add subscribers in its MDU division since the on-going selling, general and administrative expenses to service those subscribers is more variable than fixed.

Interest Expense

Interest expense was $113,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2008, versus $168,010 for the similar period a year ago. Amortization of original issue discount was $0 and $8,295 for the three months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007. Interest expense was $213,659 for the six months ended June 30, 2008 and $321,417 for the same period last year, primarily reflecting a decrease in the Company’s average interest rate and original issue discount expense. Amortization of original issue discount was $0 for the six months ended June 30, 2008 and $16,589 for the same period last year.

Minority Interest

Effective March 1, 2008, the Company purchased 51% of the stock of MMT. The minority interest on the statement of operations for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2008 of $393,586 and $412,003, respectively, represents 49% of the activity in MMT not owned by the Company. MMT currently makes up 100% of the HSP segment.

Income taxes

Due to Multiband’s purchase of 51% of MMT’s stock, effective March 1, 2008, MMT will no longer file consolidated tax returns with its former parent DTHC but will file as a single entity as it no longer meets the 80% ownership required for tax consolidation. Therefore, MMT will not be able to utilize the tax loss carryforwards of Multiband Corporation since Multiband owns less than 80% of MMT. As of and for the three and four month periods ended June 30, 2008, MMT has recorded income tax expense of $434,300 and $462,800, respectively. MMT currently makes up 100% of the HSP segment.

Net Loss

In the second quarter of fiscal 2008, the Company reported a net income of $56,441 compared to a net loss of $1,279,979 for the second fiscal quarter of 2007. For the six months ended June 30, 2008, the Company recorded a net loss of $807,957 compared to $2,642,374 for the six months ended June 30, 2007.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

During the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, the Company recorded a net loss of $807,957 and $2,642,374 respectively. Net cash from operations during the six months ended June 30, 2008 was $929,232 as compared to the net cash used by operations during the six months ended June 30, 2007 of $623,675. Principal payments on current long-term debt over the next 12 months are expected to total $1,543,361. As of June 30, 2008, the Company failed to meet one the compliance covenants of its lender, Convergent Capital, with respect to having minimum net worth of five million dollars as of the quarter ended June 30, 2008. Convergent Capital provided the Company with a waiver for the said covenant as of the quarter ended June 30, 2008. The Company’s management believes it is probable that the violation will not be cured at measurement dates that are within the next twelve months. In accordance with EITF 86-30 “Classification of obligations when a violation is waived by the creditor”, the Company has classified the debt as current as of June 30, 2008.

Cash and cash equivalents totaled $8,350,877 at June 30, 2008 versus $944,456 at December 31, 2007. Working capital at June 30, 2008 was $1,915,680 as compared to a working capital deficit of $5,018,177 at December 31, 2007, primarily due to the acquisition of MMT. Total debt and capital lease obligations increased by $1,923,562 in the six months ended June 30, 2008 due to the addition of notes payable in order to purchase MMT and US Installs. The Company had a material increase in accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities for the period ended June 30, 2008 verses the period ended December 31, 2007 due to the acquisition of MMT. Net cash from investing activities totaled $6,698,566 for the period ended June 30, 2008, compared to $637,536 for the period ended December 31, 2007, due to the acquisition of MMT. MMT is an obligor in loans entered into by DTHC and subsidiaries in May 2007 (as subsequently amended in June 2007, December 2007 and June 2008) with MB Financial, N.A. (MB Bank) (see Note 10). In the event that DTHC and its various subsidiaries other than MMT could not retire the loan then MMT’s cash or other assets may have to be utilized to retire the loan which would adversely affect MMT’s working capital.

The Company experienced a material increase in revenues between the quarter ended June 30, 2008 and the quarter ended June 30, 2007. The revenue increase, as stated previously, is a result of the additional revenue obtained from the purchase of MMT offset by the reduction of revenue resulting from the sale of unprofitable assets. In 2008, the Company intends to focus on facilitating growth of its HSP business segment and its managed subscriber services including its support center and its master system operator program. The Company believes it can increase revenues by selling its support center services to its network of system operators and by providing ancillary programs for voice and data services to that same network.

The Company used $65,976 for capital expenditures during the six months ended June 30, 2008, as compared to $240,881 in the similar period last year. Capital expenditures consisted of project build-outs and equipment acquired for internal use. This decrease was related to a reduction of company funded video and internet service build outs to MDU properties made during 2008. Capital expenditures in 2008 are expected to be below the 2007 levels.

Management anticipates that the impact of the actions listed below will generate sufficient cash flows to pay current liabilities, long-term debt and capital and operating lease obligations and fund the Company's operations through 2008:

1.
Reduction of operating expenses by controlling payroll, professional fees and other general and administrative expenses.
 
2.
Sale of video assets on a strategic basis. The Company, based on recent transactions, believes there is an active market for its video subscriber assets. The Company believes it can sell these assets, under certain circumstances, at prices at or above their current carrying value. However, there is no guarantee these sales will ultimately be favorable to the Company.
 
3.
Solicit additional equity investment in the Company by either issuing preferred or common stock.
 
4.
Continue to market Multiband services and acquire additional multi-dwelling unit customers.
 
Page 23

 
5.
Control capital expenditures by contracting Multiband services and equipment through a landlord-owned equipment program.
 
6.
Delivery of video services to residents of single family homes. Effective March 1, 2008 the Company purchased 51% of the outstanding stock of Michigan Microtech, Inc. (MMT), formerly a wholly owned subsidiary of DTHC. MMT installs DirecTV video services in single family homes. Historically MMT has been profitable. The Company anticipates that by combining MMT operations with Multiband operations that it will achieve a beneficial impact to its consolidated cash flows and operating results. However, there is no guarantee that these combined results will ultimately be favorable to the Company.
 
7.
Expansion of call center support via sales of call center services to both existing and future system operators and to buyers of the Company’s video subscribers.

Management of Multiband believes that the cash on hand, combined with capital resources and the potential ability to monetize intangible subscriber assets, as was done in the sale of assets to MDUC, is adequate to meet the anticipated liquidity and capital resource requirements for the next 12 months.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets 

The Company’s long-lived assets include property, equipment and leasehold improvement. At June 30, 2008, the Company had net property and equipment of $1,444,117, which represents approximately 6.3% of the Company’s total assets. The estimated fair value of these assets is dependent on the Company’s future performance. In assessing for potential impairment for these assets, the Company considers future performance. If these forecasts are not met, the Company may have to record an impairment charge, which may be material. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, the Company did not record any impairment losses related to long-lived assets.

Impairment of Goodwill 

At year end, we test goodwill for impairment. If indicators of impairment are determined to exist, we test goodwill for impairment quarterly. Our judgments regarding the existence of impairment indicators are based on legal factors, market conditions and operational performance of our operating segments. Future events could cause us to conclude that impairment indicators exist and that goodwill associated with our operating segments which amounts to $116,757 as of June 30, 2008, may be impaired. Any resulting impairment loss could have a material adverse impact on our financial condition and results of operations. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, the Company did not record any impairment losses related to goodwill.

Impairment of Intangible Assets

The intangible assets consist of rights of entry contracts, contracts with DirecTV, customer cable lists, debt issuance costs, domain name, access contracts and customer contracts. These intangibles are being amortized over their estimated useful lives ranging from 12 to 108 months. If significant changes would occur to the estimated future cash flows associated with these intangibles, the Company would determine if there is impairment and reduce the value of intangibles based on the discounted present value of such cash flows. At June 30, 2008, the Company had net intangibles of $5,775,699 which represented approximately 25.1% of the Company’s total assets. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, the Company recorded an impairment charge to intangible assets of $7,406 and $65,452, respectively (see Note 2). The Company did not record any impairment losses related to intangible assets during the three and six months ended June 30, 2007.

Inventories

We value our inventories at the lower of the actual cost or the current estimated market value of the inventories. We regularly review inventory quantities on hand and record a provision for excess and obsolete inventories. Rapid technological change, frequent new product development, and rapid product obsolescence that could result in an increase in the amount of obsolete inventory quantities on hand characterize our industry.

Page 24


Share-Based Payments

The Company accounts for its stock options in compliance with the Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 123 (revised 2004), Share-Based Payment (SFAS 123(R)), which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all share-based payment awards made to employees and directors including employee stock options based on fair values. The Company’s determination of fair value of share-based payment awards is based on the date of grant using an option-pricing model which incorporates a number of highly complex and subjective variables. These variables include, but are not limited to, the Company’s expected stock price volatility and estimates regarding projected employee stock option exercise behaviors and forfeitures. The Company recognizes the expense related to the fair value of the award straight-line over the vesting period.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with the Securities Exchange Commission’s Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104 (SAB 104) “Revenue Recognition”, which requires that four basic criteria be met before revenue can be recognized: (i) persuasive evidence of a customer arrangement exists; (ii) the price is fixed or determinable; (iii) collectability is reasonably assured; and (iv) product delivery has occurred or services have been rendered. The Company recognizes revenue as products are shipped based on FOB shipping point terms when title passes to customers.

The Company earns revenues from four sources: 1) Voice, video and data communications products which are sold and installed, 2) Multiband user charges to multiple dwelling units, 3) MDU earns revenue primarily through the activation of and residual fees on video programming services provided to residents of multiple dwelling units; and 4) MMT earns revenue primarily through the installation and service of DirecTV (DTV) video programming services for residents of single family houses.

Customers contract for both the purchase and installation of voice and data networking technology products and certain video technologies products. Revenue is recognized when the products are delivered and installed and the customer has accepted and has the ability to fulfill the terms.

Revenue generated from activation of video programming services is earned in the month of activation. According to Multiband's Master System Operator agreement with DirecTV, in the event that a customer cancels within the first 12 months of service, DirecTV has the right to chargeback the Company for a portion of the activation fees received. In accordance with Securities Exchange Commission SAB 104, the Company has estimated the potential charge back of commissions received on activation fees during the past 12 months based on historical percentages of customer cancellations and has included that amount as a reduction of revenue. Residual income is earned as services are provided by DirecTV through its system operators. As a master system operator for DirecTV, the Company earns a fixed percentage based on net cash received by DirecTV for recurring monthly services and a variable amount depending on the number of activations in a given month. The Company’s master system operator contract with DirecTV also permits the Company to earn revenues through its control of other system operators who are unable to provide DirecTV video programming services without the Company’s performance.

MMT has a home services provider (HSP) agreement with DirecTV which allows MMT to install and activate DTV video programming services for residents of single family homes. As a DirecTV HSP, MMT earns revenue for installing and servicing DTV video customers pursuant to predetermined rates set by DirecTV which may vary from time to time. Revenue is recognized upon completion of the delivery and installation of equipment.

The Company reports the aforementioned voice, data, and video revenues on a gross basis based on the following factors: the Company has the primary obligation in the arrangement with its customers; the Company controls the pricing of its services; the Company performs customer service for the agreements; the Company approves customers; and the Company assumes the risk of payment for services provided.

We offer some products and services that are provided by third party vendors. We review the relationship between us, the vendor and the end customer on an individual basis to assess whether revenue should be reported on a gross or net basis. As an example, our resold satellite digital television revenue is reported on a net basis.

Page 25

 
The Company has determined that the accounting policies for income recognition described above were in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) Issue No. 99-19, “Reporting Revenue Gross as a Principal versus Net as an Agent”. EITF No. 99-19 employs multi-factor tests to determine whether amounts charged to customers in respect of certain expenses incurred should be included in revenues or netted against such expenses.

In June 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) ratified the consensus of Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 06-3, “How Taxes Collected from Customers and Remitted to Governmental Authorities Should Be Presented in the Income Statement (That Is, Gross versus Net Presentation)” (EITF 06-3). EITF 06-3 concluded that the presentation of taxes imposed on revenue-producing transactions (sales, use, value added and excise taxes) on either a gross (included in revenues and costs) or a net (excluded from revenues) basis is an accounting policy that should be disclosed. The Company’s policy is to present taxes imposed on revenue-producing transactions on a net basis.

Revenue generated by the support center to service third party subscribers by providing billing and call center support services is recognized in the period the related services are provided.

Multiband, Rainbow, MDU and MBUSA user charges are recognized as revenues in the period the related services are provided in accordance with SAB 104. Any amounts billed prior to services being provided are reported as deferred service obligations and revenues. MMT installation and services revenues are recognized in the period the related services are provided in accordance with SAB 104.

ITEM 3. QUANTITIVE AND QUALITIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK

The Company is not subject to any material interest rate risk as any current lending agreements are at a fixed rate of interest except for the Convergent Capital note of $1,487,500, which varies from 11% to 14%, dependent on the Company’s common stock price. Each 1% change in interest impacts the statement of operations by approximately $15,000 annually.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

As of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-14(c) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Based upon that evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective in alerting them in a timely basis to material information relating to the Company required to be disclosed in the Company’s periodic SEC reports. There have been no significant changes in the Company’s internal controls or in other factors which could significantly affect internal controls subsequent to the date the Company carried out its evaluation. There was no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the Company’s most recently completed fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. An exception to the aforementioned conclusions is hereby made specifically with regards to the Company’s home service provider business segment. As of June 30, 2008, the Company has not tested the effectiveness of any controls or procedures with regards to MMT due to the recent acquisition of 51% of MMT. The Company does intend to perform such testing prior to December 31, 2008.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

The Company is subject to legal actions that arise in the ordinary course of its business. The Company accrues for such litigation when a loss is considered probable and the amount of such loss, or a range of loss, can be reasonably estimated.

The Company, in July 2008, received a complaint dated May 2008 filed by various individuals against MMT and DTHC alleging violations of state and federal statutory payroll overtime law. The Company believes it pays overtime properly when earned and intends to vigorously defend the allegations. At this time, the Company could not reliably estimate a range of loss, if any, with regards to the matter.

Page 26


ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

Our operations and our securities are subject to a number of risks, including but not limited to those described below. If any of the following risks actually occur, the business, financial condition or operating results of Multiband and the trading price or value of our common stock could be materially adversely affected.

General

Multiband, since 1998, has taken several significant steps to reinvent and reposition itself to take advantage of opportunities presented by a shifting economy and industry environment.

Recognizing that voice, data and video technologies in the late twentieth century were beginning to systematically integrate as industry manufacturers were evolving technological standards from "closed" proprietary networking architectures to a more "open" flexible and integrated approach, Multiband, between 1998 and 2001, purchased three competitors which, in the aggregate, possessed expertise in data networking, voice and data cabling and video distribution technologies.

In early 2000, Multiband created its MCS division, employing the aforementioned expertise, to provide communications and entertainment services (local dial tone, long distance, high-speed internet and expanded satellite television services) to residents in MDUs on one billing platform, which the Company developed internally.

Net Losses

The Company had net losses of $807,957 for the six months ended June 30, 2008, $6,088,353 for the year ended December 31, 2007, and $10,183,723 for the year ended December 31, 2006. The Company may never be profitable.
 
The prolonged effects of generating losses without additional funding may restrict our ability to pursue our business strategy. Unless our business plan is successful, an investment in our common stock may result in a complete loss of an investor's capital.

If we cannot achieve profitability from operating activities, we may not be able to meet:
 
o
our capital expenditure objectives;
o
our debt service obligations; or
o
our working capital needs.

Goodwill

In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets" which changed the amortization rules on recorded goodwill from a monthly amortization to an annual test of "impairment" for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. As of June 30, 2008, the Company had goodwill of $116,757 primarily related to the purchase of US Installs. At June 30, 2008 the Company did not note any indications of impairment related to goodwill.

Deregulation

Several regulatory and judicial proceedings have recently concluded, are underway or may soon be commenced that address issues affecting operations and those of our competitors, which may cause significant changes to our industry. We cannot predict the outcome of these developments, nor can we assure you that these changes will not have a material adverse effect on us. Historically, we have been a reseller of products and services, not a manufacturer or carrier requiring regulation of its activities. Pursuant to Minnesota statutes, our Multiband activity is specifically exempt from the need to tariff our services in MDU's. However, the Telecommunications Act of 1996 provides for significant deregulation of the telecommunications industry, including the local telecommunications and long-distance industries. This federal statute and the related regulations remain subject to judicial review and additional rule-makings of the Federal Communications Commission, making it difficult to predict what effect the legislation will have on us, our operations, and our competitors.

Page 27


Dependence on Strategic Alliances

Several suppliers or potential suppliers of Multiband, such as McLeod, WorldCom, WS Net, XO Communications and others have filed for bankruptcy in recent years. While the financial distress of its suppliers or potential suppliers could have a material adverse effect on Multiband's business, Multiband believes that enough alternate suppliers exist to allow the Company to execute its business plans. The Company is also highly dependent on its Master System Operator agreement with DirecTV. The initial term of the agreement expires in August 2008, and provides for two additional two-year renewals if the Company has a minimum number of paying video subscribers in its system operator network. Although an alternate provider of satellite television services, Echostar, exists, the termination of its agreements with DirecTV could have a material adverse effect on Multiband's business.

Changes in Technology

A portion of our projected future revenue is dependent on public acceptance of broadband and expanded satellite television services. Acceptance of these services is partially dependent on the infrastructure of the internet and satellite television which is beyond Multiband's control. In addition, newer technologies, such as video-on-demand, are being developed which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's competitiveness in the marketplace if Multiband is unable to adopt or deploy such technologies.

Attraction and Retention of Employees

Multiband's success depends on the continued employment of certain key personnel, including executive officers. If Multiband were unable to continue to attract and retain a sufficient number of qualified key personnel, its business, operating results and financial condition could be materially and adversely affected. In addition, Multiband's success depends on its ability to attract, develop, motivate and retain highly skilled and educated professionals with a wide variety of management, marketing, selling and technical capabilities. Competition for such personnel is intense and is expected to increase in the future.

Intellectual Property Rights

Multiband relies on a combination of trade secret, copyright and trademark laws, license agreements, and contractual arrangements with certain key employees to protect its proprietary rights and the proprietary rights of third parties from which Multiband licenses intellectual property. Multiband also relies on agreements with owners of MDUs which grant the Company rights of access for a specific period to MDU premises whereby Multiband is allowed to offer its voice, data, and video services to individual residents of the MDUs. If it was determined that Multiband infringed the intellectual property rights of others, it could be required to pay substantial damages or stop selling products and services that contain the infringing intellectual property, which could have a material adverse effect on Multiband's business, financial condition and results of operations. Also, there can be no assurance that Multiband would be able to develop non-infringing technology or that it could obtain a license on commercially reasonable terms, or at all. Multiband's success depends in part on its ability to protect the proprietary and confidential aspects of its technology and the products and services it sells. There can be no assurance that the legal protections afforded to Multiband or the steps taken by Multiband will be adequate to prevent misappropriation of Multiband's intellectual property.

Variability of Quarterly Operating Results

Variations in Multiband's revenues and operating results occur from quarter to quarter as a result of a number of factors, including customer engagements commenced and completed during a quarter, the number of business days in a quarter, employee hiring and utilization rates, the ability of customers to terminate engagements without penalty, the size and scope of assignments and general economic conditions. Because a significant portion of Multiband's expenses are relatively fixed, a variation in the number of customer projects or the timing of the initiation or completion of projects could cause significant fluctuations in operating results from quarter to quarter.

Certain Anti-Takeover Effects

Multiband is subject to Minnesota statutes regulating business combinations and restricting voting rights of certain persons acquiring shares of Multiband. These anti-takeover statutes may render more difficult or tend to discourage a merger, tender offer or proxy contest, the assumption of control by a holder of a large block of Multiband's securities, or the removal of incumbent management.

Page 28


Volatility of Multiband's Common Stock

The trading price of our common stock has been and is likely to be volatile. The stock market has experienced extreme volatility, and this volatility has often been unrelated to the operating performance of particular companies. Investors may not be able to sell the common stock at or above the price they paid for their common stock, or at all. Prices for the common stock will be determined in the marketplace and may be influenced by many factors, including variations in our financial results, changes in earnings estimates by industry research analysts, investors' perceptions of us and general economic, industry and market conditions.

Future Sales of Our Common Stock May Lower Our Stock Price

If our existing shareholders sell a large number of shares of our common stock, the market price of the common stock could decline significantly. The perception in the public market that our existing shareholders might sell shares of common stock could depress our market price.

Competition

We face competition from others who are competing for a share of the MDU market, including other satellite companies, cable companies and telephone companies. Some of these companies have significantly greater assets and resources than we do.

Uncertain Effects Of The Merger

During the fourth quarter of 2007, the Company announced its intent to merge with DirecTECH Holding Company, Inc. (DTHC) pursuant to a signed merger agreement. The announcement of the merger may produce an uncertain effect on Multiband’s and DTHC’s business relationships, operating results and business generally, including their ability to retain key employees, suppliers and customers. Even if the Merger is consummated, the DTHC business as merged into the Multiband business may not achieve the operating results and growth anticipated by management in structuring the transaction. As of this date, the merger has not been completed. Due to a number of conditions precedent to completion of the merger including, but not limited to, shareholder approval from both parties, Multiband cannot deem it likely as of this date that the merger as originally structured in the 4th quarter of 2007 will be completed.
