1. ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF BUSINESS AND UNCERTAINTY

Horne International, Inc. (the “Company” or “we”, “us”, “our” or similar terms), headquartered in Fairfax, Virginia, is an engineering services company focused on provision of integrated, systems approach based solutions to the energy and environmental sectors. The Company’s solutions are sustainable, agile, and provide immediate as well as long term results. The Company’s service and product offerings encompass engineering, environment, and energy. We provide products and services to both commercial customers and to the United States Government.

Discontinued operations include the results of our CEECO and Spectrum subsidiaries that were closed in February 2008 and June 2008, respectively.

The Company’s independent registered public accountants stated in their report on the consolidated financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 26, 2010, that the Company has had recurring operating losses that raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. For the three months ended March 27, 2011, the Company incurred a loss from continuing operations of approximately $263,000 and had a stockholders’ deficit of approximately $1,183,000 as of that date. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recovery and classification of recorded assets, or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary in the event the Company cannot continue as a going concern.

The Company is dependent upon available cash and operating cash flow to meet its capital needs. The Company is considering all strategic options to improve its liquidity and provide it with working capital to fund its continuing business operations which include equity offerings, assets sales or debt financing as alternatives to improve its cash requirements.

In December 2009, the Company entered into a two-year receivable noncancellable financing agreement with Wells Fargo Bank National Association under which the Company is able to factor certain eligible accounts receivable. The Company replaced this agreement with a new factoring agreement with United Capital Funding at the end of the first quarter of 2011. The new agreement with United Capital funding allows the Company to factor eligible accounts receivable up to $500,000.

During 2008, the Company entered into a loan agreement with Darryl K. Horne, the Company’s President and Chairman. The loan permitted the Company to borrow up to $525,000 at 8 percent interest. As of March 27, 2011, the outstanding balance is $275,000. On August 6, 2008, the Company entered into a receivables financing agreement with Mr. Horne. Under the terms of the agreement, Mr. Horne agreed to finance specific accounts receivable under a line of credit for up to $790,000 at an interest rate of 8.5 percent. The Company has taken draws of $220,000 as of March 27, 2011. The loan is not convertible into any Company securities.

On March 22, 2010, the Company entered into a strategic partnership with Intelligent Decisions, Inc. (“Intelligent”), an information technology services company headquartered in Ashburn, Virginia, servicing both commercial and government customers. The agreement between the parties provides for a cash line of credit to the Company in the amount of $250,000 for business/projects jointly developed by Intelligent and the Company. This line of credit will be secured by the Company’s eligible Accounts Receivable on such projects or the Company’s full-time equivalent employees arising after the inception of this Agreement that are billed against projects, as decided by Intelligent in its sole discretion. No cash will be advanced by Intelligent until Intelligent receives a perfected security interest (i.e., first lien on the orders to be advanced under this cash line of credit).

In March 2011, the Company entered into a receivables financing agreement with Evan Auld-Susott, the company’s Chief Executive Officer, as agent of the Susott Family Limited Partnership. Under the terms of the agreement, Mr. Auld-Susott agreed to finance specific accounts receivable under a line of credit for up to $500,000 at an interest rate of 13 percent. The Company has taken a draw of $120,000 in the first quarter of 2011. The loan is not convertible into any Company securities.

HORNE INTERNATIONAL, INC.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements of Horne International, Inc. include accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. Intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated in consolidation.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements for the three-month periods ended March 27, 2011, and March 28, 2010 have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission for Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring accruals, considered necessary for a fair presentation of the Company's financial position, results of operations, and cash flows as of and for the periods presented.

The results of operations for the period ended March 27, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year. These interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related footnotes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 26, 2010.

Revenue Recognition

The Company’s two principal methods of revenue recognition are monthly fixed price contracts in which revenue is recognized ratably over the contract period and time and materials contracts in which revenue is recognized as costs are incurred.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes utilizing the asset and liability method. This approach requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carry-forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enacted date. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

The Company currently has a net operating loss carry forward of approximately $55 million at March 27, 2011. The Company has not recorded any related federal tax benefit in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, due to the possibility that the net operating loss carry forward may not be utilized, for various reasons, including the potential that the Company might not have sufficient profits to use the carry forward or the carry forward may be limited as a result of changes in the Company’s equity ownership. The Company adopted Accounting Standards Codification topic 740, subtopic 10 on January 1, 2007, which requires financial statement benefits to be recognized for positions taken for tax return purposes when it is more-likely-than-not that the position will be sustained. There has been no change in our financial position and results of operation due to the adoption of this standard.

Loss Per Share

Basic loss per share is calculated by dividing net loss by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted loss per share is computed in a manner consistent with that of basic loss per share while giving effect to the impact of common stock equivalents. The Company’s common stock equivalents consist of employee, director, and consultant stock options to purchase common stock. Common stock equivalents of 10,593,333 and 10,544,333 were not included in the computation of diluted loss per share for the three months ended March 27, 2011, and March 28, 2010, respectively, as the inclusion of these common stock equivalents would have been anti-dilutive.

HORNE INTERNATIONAL, INC.

Stock-based Compensation

The fair values of stock option awards are determined using the Black-Sholes option pricing model. The compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period. The Company, beginning in 2006, has included a vesting period for most options granted. See Note 7 for a detailed discussion of the Company’s stock option plan.

Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, receivables, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximates fair value because of the short-term nature of those instruments. The carrying amount and fair market value of the Company’s short-term investments are the same since short-term investments are recorded at fair value. Debt is recorded at the cash settlement value of the underlying notes and is not revalued.

Use of Estimates

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

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In October 2009, the FASB issued ASU 2009-13, Multiple Deliverable Revenue Arrangements, (“ASU 2009-13”), which applies to all deliverables in contractual arrangements in which a vendor will perform multiple revenue-generating activities. In April 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-17, Revenue Recognition—Milestone Method, (“ASU 2010-17”), which defines a milestone and determines when it may be appropriate to apply the milestone method of revenue recognition for research or development transactions. These pronouncements are codified in ASC Topic 605, Revenue Recognition, and will be effective for our fiscal year that begins January 1, 2011. These pronouncements may be applied prospectively or retrospectively, and early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this standard did not have a material effect on our financial statements.

ASU 2010-06, “Improving Disclosure about Fair Value Measurements,” was issued January 2010 and requires additional disclosures regarding fair value measurements, amends disclosures about post-retirement benefit plan assets and provides clarification regarding the level of disaggregation of fair value disclosures by investment class. The ASU is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for certain Level 3 activity disclosure requirements that will be effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2010. Adoption of ASU 2010-06 had no material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

3. RECEIVABLES (000’s)

Receivables primarily comprise of amounts due to the Company for work performed on contracts directly related to commercial and government customers. The Company has a nominal bad debt reserve as most of our contracts are with governmental entities.

The agreement with United Capital funding allows the Company to factor eligible accounts receivable up to $500,000. The outstanding amounts under lines of credit were approximately $0 and $140,000 as of March 27, 2011 and December 26, 2010, respectively.

HORNE INTERNATIONAL, INC.

7. STOCK OPTION PLAN

On March 22, 2010, the Company entered into a strategic partnership with Intelligent Decisions, Inc. (“Intelligent”). Intelligent is an information technology services company headquartered in Ashburn, Virginia, servicing both commercial and government customers. The agreement between the parties provides for Intelligent to provide business support services to the Company. In return for business support services, the Company awarded to Intelligent 8,333,333 options to purchase common stock and will award up to 12,500,000 restricted stock units. During 2010, the Company awarded Intelligent 290,569 restricted stock units in exchange for business support services and recorded $515,884 of stock-based compensation expense related to options. The Company did not award any restricted stock units during the first quarter of 2011.

The Company has a stock option plan available to eligible employees, non-employee directors, consultants and advisors to acquire proprietary interests in the Company by providing eligible persons an additional incentive to promote the success of the Company as deemed appropriate by senior management. This is accomplished by providing for the granting of Non-Statutory Stock Options to employees, non-employee directors, consultants and advisors. During the first three months of 2011, the Company granted 225,000 shares of stock options to three members of the Advisory Board. These stock options shall vest over time and under certain conditions.

The Company signed a reseller agreement with the IT product and professional services company ThoughtWorks, Inc., a global leader in Lean and Agile products and training. The Company expects this capability to enable it to further its goal of being a total solutions provider to its customers.

Additionally, the Company entered into reseller agreements with Ingram Micro, Juniper, Cisco, Lenovo, IBM, EMC2, and Dell related to the IT capability. The aforementioned agreements were entered into to support the Company’s acceleration of the go-to-market strategy with its partnership Intelligent Decisions.

The Company was awarded a five-year GSA Schedule 70 contract effective April 15th, 2011. This contract allows the Company to provide federal customers with high-value Lean and Agile software development process solutions.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

In our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 26, 2010, our most critical accounting policies and estimates upon which our financial status depends were identified as those relating to revenue recognition, stock-based compensation, net operating losses and tax credit carryforwards, and impairment of long-lived assets. We reviewed our policies and determined that those policies remain our most critical accounting policies for the three months ended March 27, 2011.

HORNE INTERNATIONAL, INC.

COMPARISON OF THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 27, 2011, AND MARCH 28, 2010

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the unaudited financial statements (and notes thereto) and other financial information of the Company appearing elsewhere in this report.

Consolidated Overview (000’s)

	Three months ended
	March 27, 2011					March 28, 2010
Total revenue	$	1,041		100.0	%	$	994		100.0	%
Gross profit		164		15.8	%		298		29.8	%
Operating loss		(238	)	-22.9	%		(564	)	-56.9	%

Revenue for the quarter ended March 27, 2011, increased slightly, as compared to the quarter ended March 28, 2010. Gross profit as a percentage of revenue declined due to the significant amount of low-margin revenues. The overall operating loss decreased in the first quarter of 2011 compared to the first quarter of 2010 primarily due to the stock option expense of $515,885 in the first quarter of 2010.

Revenue and gross profit for the second quarter of 2011 is expected to be consistent with the first quarter of 2011.

Discontinued Operations

Discontinued operations include the result of Spectrum subsidiary that was closed in June 2008. The liabilities of discontinued operations at March 27, 2011, primarily consist of legal cost and other administrative expenses.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash and cash equivalents totaled approximately $48,000 at March 27, 2011. Our overall cash position has decreased by approximately $14,000 since year-end primarily due to our operating losses. We have been able to offset some of the cash impact of our losses through several receivables financing agreements.

In March 2011, the Company entered into a financing agreement with United Capital Funding Corporation under which the Company is able to factor certain eligible accounts receivable up to $500,000. The agreement calls for a fee of .425 percent of the factored amount for each 5 day period that the amount is outstanding. The Company is able to receive 80 percent of any invoices factored to the lender. As of March 27, 2011, there is no balance outstanding.

On March 22, 2010, the Company entered into a strategic partnership with Intelligent. The partnership provides for the Company to have a cash line of credit in the amount of $250,000 against business/projects jointly developed by Intelligent and the Company. This line of credit will be secured by the Company’s eligible Accounts Receivable on such projects or on the receivables from the Company’s full-time equivalent employees arising after the inception of the partnership that are billed against projects as decided by Intelligent in its sole discretion. No cash will be advanced by Intelligent until Intelligent receives a perfected security interest (i.e., first lien on the orders to be advanced under this cash line of credit). As of March 27, 2011, no funds have been advanced to the Company under this line of credit.

As discussed in our 2010 Form 10-K, the Company has substantial liquidity challenges. While we continue to work towards profitability, there is a significant uncertainty that the Company will have sufficient cash flow to sustain its operations.

The Company continues to pursue additional funding sources in the event that funds from operations and financing are not sufficient to provide for our operations. These funding sources would primarily be in the form of bank credit lines. Given our past financial performance, the costs and fees associated with funding sources may be more expensive than the Company has historically paid. The Company can not determine if the funds available from operations will be sufficient for any acquisitions or facility expansions that may be undertaken during the year. Should the Company make any acquisitions or expansions, other sources of financing may be required.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

In addition to the risks inherent in our operations, we are exposed to financial, market, political and economic risks. The following discussion provides additional detail regarding our exposure to interest rates and foreign exchange rates.

Interest Rate Risk

At March 27, 2011, the Company had a revolving credit facility. We have not historically mitigated our exposure to fluctuations in interest rates by entering into interest rate hedge agreements, nor do we have any plans to do so in the immediate future.

Foreign Exchange Risk

We currently do not have any foreign currency risk and accordingly, estimate that an immediate 10 percent change in foreign exchange rates would have no impact on our reported net loss. We do not currently utilize any derivative financial instruments to hedge foreign currency risks.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Based on management’s evaluation (with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Chief Financial Officer (CFO)), as of the end of the period covered by this report, our CEO and CFO have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act)), are effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and is accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
