Halifax Corporation
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
Note 1 Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the
rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and in accordance with the
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial
information. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the annual
financial statements have been omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations.
In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect
all necessary adjustments and reclassifications (all of which are of a normal, recurring nature)
that are necessary for fair presentation for the period presented. The results of the three and
nine months ended December 31, 2006, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected
for the full fiscal year. These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in
Halifax Corporations (the Company) annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2006
and 8-K dated January 24, 2007 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The prior
period financial statements have been restated as discussed in Note 2.
Note 2 Sale of Secure Network Services Business
On June 30, 2005, the Company simultaneously entered into and closed on an asset purchase agreement
with INDUS Corporation pursuant to which it sold substantially all of the assets and certain
liabilities of its secure network services business (SNS). The purchase price was approximately
$12.5 million, in addition to adjustments for working capital of approximately of $608,000 for
total consideration approximately $13.1 million. The asset purchase agreement provided that $3.0
million of the purchase price was to be held in escrow to serve as security to obtain certain
consents, novations and indemnification obligations. On July 8, 2005, $1.0 million of the amount
held in escrow to serve as security to obtain certain consents was released to the Company. Certain
other novations and consents required under the asset purchase agreement were received and, on
January 26, 2006, $1.375 million plus accrued interest of $24,000 was paid and released to the
Company. Accordingly, $625,000 of the original escrow amount plus accrued interest remains in
escrow (restricted cash on the accompanying balance sheet) as security for the payment of the
Companys indemnification obligations pursuant to the asset purchase agreement. If there were no
such obligations, these funds would have been released to the Company eighteen (18) months
following the date of closing, or December 31, 2006. However, on December 28, 2006, we received a
Notice of Claim from Indus, pursuant to which Indus alleged various breaches of certain
representations and warranties in the Agreement by us. Indus takes the position that these alleged
breaches entitle Indus to indemnification. As a result, Indus further takes the position that the
entire amount remaining in Escrow which totaled $625,000, plus interest, should be disbursed to
Indus. The Company delivered a Response Notice to the escrow agent and Indus and disputed the
claims of Indus set forth in its Notice of Claim. The Company believes the claim is without merit
and is working vigorously to resolve the matter. Therefore, no adjustments to the accompanying
financial statements have been made relating to this matter.
The asset purchase agreement contains representations, warranties, covenants and related
indemnification provisions, in each case that are customary in connection with a transaction of
this type; however, certain of the representations and warranties required updating to a date which
is the earlier of the contract novation or thirty months from the closing. In addition, survival
periods applicable to such updated warranties may be extended together with related indemnification
periods. As a result of the sale, SNS results of operations and related assets and liabilities have
been classified as discontinued operations for all periods presented.
Subsequent to its year end, the Company identified an inconsistency in our original reporting of
this transaction contained in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2006. In
applying the guidance contained in paragraph 39 of SFAS No. 142 in recording the gain, goodwill
should have been allocated to the basis of SNS based on its relative fair value. The effect of this
adjustment would have been to reduce the loss from
4
operations from approximately $4.7 million ($1.41 per share) to $1.5 million ($.40 per share), as
there would not have been an impairment of goodwill, with an offsetting reduction of the related
gain on sale from approximately $5.7 million ($1.80 per share) to $2.5 million ($.79 per share).
Net income as reported did not change as a result of
this inconsistency. On January 18, 2007, management of the Company completed its review and
determined that a restatement of its annual report filed on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31,
2006 and quarterly reports for the quarters ended June 30, 2005, September 30, 2005 and December
31, 2005 was necessary. The Company is in the process of amending its filings.
The financial information presented for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2005 has been
restated to reflect the correction of the items discussed above. The following table summarizes the
corrections to the financial information for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2005.

Note 4 Inventory
Inventory consists principally of spare parts, computers and computer peripherals, hardware and
software. Inventory is recorded net of allowances for inventory valuation reserve of $827,000 at
December 31, 2006 and March 31, 2006.
Note 5 Tax Matters
Deferred tax assets and liabilities on the balance sheets reflect the net tax effect of temporary
differences between carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial statement purposes and
the amounts used for income tax purposes. The deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified
on the balance sheets as current or non-current based on the classification of the related assets
and liabilities.
5
Management regularly evaluates the realizability of its deferred tax assets given the nature
of its operations and the tax jurisdictions in which it operates. The Company adjusts its
valuation allowance from time to time based on such evaluations. Based upon the Companys
historical taxable income, when adjusted for non-recurring items, net
operating loss carryback potential and estimates of future profitability, management has concluded
that, in its judgment, the deferred tax asset remains fully realizable, and a valuation allowance
need not be established.
Note 6 Debt Obligations
Bank Debt
On July 6, 2006, the Company and its subsidiaries amended and restated the Amended and Restated
Loan and Security Agreement (revolving credit agreement) with Provident Bank. The maturity date
is June 30, 2008. Effective December 27, 2006, the Company reduced its maximum availability under
the agreement from $12.0 million to $10.0 million due to excess borrowing capacity. Such amount may
be restored in the future if required for operations. There was no change to the auxiliary
revolver facility with a maximum borrowing capacity of $1.0 million, which is based upon a
borrowing base of up to 25% of our eligible inventory. The Company is permitted to use the
proceeds of the auxiliary revolver facility for costs related to the commencement of any new
contract.
The amount outstanding under the revolving credit agreement bears interest at the banks prime rate
plus one-quarter percent (0.25%). The Company will also pay an unused commitment fee on the
difference between the maximum amount it can borrow and the amount advanced, determined by the
average daily amount outstanding during the period. The difference is multiplied by one-quarter
percent (0.25%). The fee is paid on the last day of each quarter. Additionally, the Company pays
a fee of $1,000 per month. Advances under the revolving credit agreement are
collateralized by a first priority security interest on all of its assets as defined in the
revolving credit agreement. As of December 31, 2006, $6.4 million was outstanding and $3.6 million
was available to us. At December 31, 2006, there were no advances on the auxiliary revolver
facility. The interest rate at December 31, 2006 was 8.5%.
The revolving credit agreement contains representations, warranties and covenants that are
customary in connection with a transaction of this type. The revolving credit agreement also
contains certain financial covenants which the Company is required to maintain including, but not
limited to, tangible net worth, current ratio, total liabilities to net worth ratio, debt service
coverage and current ratio, as more fully described in the revolving credit agreement.
At December 31, 2006, the Company was in compliance with the financial covenants contained in its
revolving credit agreement.
For more information on the Companys revolving credit agreement see Managements Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations Liquidity and Capital Resources.
Notes Payable
In conjunction with the September 30, 2004 acquisition of AlphaNational Technology Services, Inc.,
the Company issued notes to the former AlphaNational shareholders in the aggregate amount of
$168,000, with an interest rate of 6%. The notes and accrued interest were paid in full in April
2006.
Subordinated Debt Affiliates
The Arch C. Scurlock Childrens Trust, (the Childrens Trust) and Nancy M. Scurlock each own
392,211 shares of the Companys common stock or 25% in the aggregate of the Companys common stock.
The Arch C. Scurlock Childrens Trust and Nancy M. Scurlock are affiliates of the Company
(Affiliates). Both are greater than 10% shareholders of the Companys common stock. Arch C.
Scurlock, Jr., a beneficiary and trustee of the Childrens Trust, and John H. Grover, a trustee of
the Childrens Trust, are our directors. The holders of the 8% promissory notes are the Childrens
Trust and Nancy M. Scurlock. The Company 8% promissory notes are subordinated to the revolving
credit agreement described above.
With the amendment of its revolving credit agreement with Provident Bank on July 6, 2006, the
Companys 8% promissory notes maturity date was extended to July 1, 2008, which date is the next
day immediately succeeding the expiration of the revolving credit agreement. As of December 31,
2006, the principal balance on the aggregate principal balance of the 8% promissory notes was $1.0
million.
6
The Companys revolving credit agreement requires the lenders approval for the payment of
dividends or distributions as well as the payment of principal or interest on the Companys
outstanding subordinated debt, which is held by the Affiliates. Interest expense on the
subordinated debt owned by Affiliates is accrued on a current basis.
The balance of accrued but unpaid interest due on the notes to the Affiliates was approximately
$122,000 at December 31, 2006.
Note 7 Stock Based Compensation
In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 123 (revised 2004), Share-Based Payments, (SFAS No. 123R) which requires that
compensation costs related to share-based payment transactions be recognized in financial
statements. SFAS No. 123R requires all companies to measure compensation costs for all share-based
payments at fair value, and eliminates the option of using the intrinsic method of accounting
provided for in Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to
Employees, (APB No. 25) which generally resulted in no compensation expense recorded in the
financial statements related to the grant of stock options to employees and directors if certain
conditions were met.
Effective April 1, 2006, the Company adopted SFAS No. 123R using the modified prospective method.
Under this method, compensation costs for all awards granted after the date of adoption and the
unvested portion of previously granted awards outstanding at the date of adoption will be measured
at estimated fair value and included in operating expenses over the vesting period during which an
employee provides service in exchange for the award. Accordingly, prior period amounts presented
herein have not been restated to reflect the adoption of SFAS No. 123R.
Prior to the adoption of SFAS No. 123R, the tax benefits resulting from the exercise of stock
options were immaterial to the financial statements or operating cash flows in the consolidated
statements of cash flows. In accordance with SFAS No. 123R, for the period beginning April 1, 2006,
excess tax benefits from the exercise of stock options are presented as financing cash flows. There
were no options exercised during the nine months ended December 31, 2006 and as a result excess tax
benefits were $0 for the three and nine months then ended.
As a result of adopting SFAS No. 123R, the Company recorded $8,000 and $27,000 of stock-based
compensation expense, in its statement of operations and is included in general and administrative
expenses for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2006. This stock-based compensation
expense did not materially impact basic and diluted earnings per share for the three and nine
months ended December 31, 2006.
Fair Value Determination
The fair value concepts were not changed significantly in SFAS No. 123R; however, in adopting this
Standard, companies must choose among alternative valuation models and amortization assumptions.
The Company has elected to use both the Black-Scholes option pricing model and straight-line
amortization of compensation expense over the requisite service period of the grant. The Company
will reconsider use of the Black-Scholes option pricing model if additional information becomes
available in the future that indicates another model would be more appropriate, or if grants issued
in future periods have characteristics that cannot be reasonably estimated using this model.
There were no options grants during the quarter ended December 31, 2006. During the quarter ended
September 30, 2006, the Company issued 97,300 options. The weighted average grant date fair value
of the options was $1.63. The Companys options expire 10 years after grant date. In calculating
fair value, the following weighted-average assumptions were used for options granted.
Expected Volatility. The expected volatility of the Companys shares was estimated based upon the
historical volatility of the Companys share price over a period of 6.25 years, as being
representative of the price volatility expected in the future. Based on the guidance provided in
SFAS No. 123R the monthly volatility calculated was 48.99%.
7
Risk-free Interest Rate. The Company bases the risk-free interest rate used in the Black-Scholes
valuation method on the implied yield available on a U.S. Treasury note on the applicable grant
date, with a term equal to the expected
8
term of the underlying grants. The risk-free interest rates used in valuing options granted during
the three months ended September 30, 2006 were 4.94%
Dividend Yield. The Black-Scholes valuation model calls for a single expected dividend yield as an
input. The Company has not paid dividends in the past nor does it expect to pay dividends in the
future. As such, the Company used a dividend yield percentage of zero.
Expected Term. The expected term used in the Companys Black-Scholes model is 6.25 years.
The contractual term of the options is 10 years.
In prior years, while accounting for stock options under APB No. 25 and disclosing a pro forma
expense calculation under SFAS No. 123, the Company recognized the effect of forfeitures as they
occurred. In accordance with SFAS No. 123R, the Company estimates forfeitures on date of grant and
is recognizing compensation expense only for those share-based awards that are expected to vest.
As of December 31, 2006, there was $155,000 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to
nonvested share-based compensation arrangements. This cost is expected to be fully amortized in
five years, with 40% of the total amortization cost being recognized within the next 24 months.
Stock Option Activity
During the quarter ended December 31, 2006, there were no grants of stock options to purchase
shares of common stock. There were no exercises of or terminations/expirations of options to
purchase shares of common stock.
The following table summarizes the information for options outstanding and exercisable under the
Companys 2005 Stock Option and Incentive Plan at December 31, 2006.

Note 8 New accounting standards
In July 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 48 (FIN No. 48), Accounting for Uncertainty
in Income Taxes, which prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement process for recording in
the financial statements uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return.
Additionally, FIN No. 48 provides guidance on the derecognition, classification, accounting in
interim periods and disclosure requirements for uncertain tax positions. The accounting provisions
of FIN No. 48 will be effective for fiscal year beginning April 1, 2007 and the Company is in the
process of determining the effect, if any, the adoption of FIN No. 48 will have on its financial
condition or results of operations.
In September 2006, the FASB issued FASB Statement No. 157 (SFAS 157), Fair Value Measurements.
SFAS 157 prescribes a single definition of fair value as the price that would be received to sell
an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at
the measurement date. The accounting provisions of SFAS 157 will be effective for the Company
beginning April 1, 2008. The Company does not believe the adoption of SFAS 157 will have a material
impact on its financial condition or results of operations.
In September 2006, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 108 (SAB 108). SAB 108 addresses
how the effects of prior year uncorrected misstatements should be considered when quantifying
misstatements in current year financial statements. SAB 108 requires companies to quantify
misstatements using a balance sheet and income statement approach and to evaluate whether either
approach results in quantifying an error that is material in light of relevant quantitative and
qualitative factors. When the effect of initial adoption is material, companies will record the
effect as a cumulative effect adjustment to beginning of year retained earnings. SAB 108 will be
effective for the Company beginning March 31, 2007. The Company is does not believe that the
adoption of SAB 108 will have a material impact on its financial condition or results of
operations.

Item 2. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Forward-Looking Statements
Certain statements in this document constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of
the Federal Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. While forward-looking statements
sometimes are presented with numerical specificity, they are based on various assumptions made by
management regarding future circumstances over many of which Halifax Corporation (Halifax, we,
our or us) have little or no control. Forward-looking statements may be identified by words
including anticipate, believe, estimate, expect and similar expressions. We caution readers
that forward-looking statements, including without limitation, those relating to future business
prospects, revenues, working capital, liquidity, and income, are subject to certain risks and
uncertainties that would cause actual results to differ materially from those indicated in the
forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause actual results to differ from forward-looking
statements include the concentration of our revenues, risks involved in contracting with our
customers, including the difficulty to accurately estimate costs when bidding on a contract and the
occurrence of start-up costs prior to receiving revenues and contracts with fixed priced
provisions, potential conflicts of interest, difficulties we may have in attracting and retaining
management, professional and administrative staff, fluctuation in quarterly results, risks related
to acquisitions and our acquisition strategy, continued favorable banking relationships, the
availability of capital to finance operations and planned growth and ability to make payments on
outstanding indebtedness, weakened economic conditions, reduced end-user purchases relative to
expectations, pricing pressures, excess and obsolete inventory, acts of terrorism, energy prices,
continued losses, risks related to competition and our ability to continue to perform efficiently
on contracts, and other risks and factors identified from time to time in the reports we file with
the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Should one or more of these risks or
uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may
vary materially from those anticipated, estimated or projected.
Forward-looking statements are intended to apply only at the time they are made. Moreover, whether
or not stated in connection with a forward-looking statement, we undertake no obligation to correct
or update a forward-looking statement should we later become aware that it is not likely to be
achieved. If we were to update or correct a forward-looking statement, investors and others should
not conclude that we will make additional updates or corrections thereafter.
Overview
We are a nationwide high availability, multi-vendor, enterprise maintenance service provider for
enterprises, including businesses, global service providers, governmental agencies and other
organizations. We have undertaken significant changes to our business in recent years. In
September 2004, we completed the acquisition of AlphaNational Technology Services, Inc., in August
2003; we completed the acquisition of Microserv, Inc., and most recently, in December 2005, we
acquired a contract from Technical Service and Support, Inc. (TSSI). These acquisitions
significantly expanded our geographic base, strengthened our nationwide service delivery
capabilities, bolstered management depth, and added several prestigious customers. In June 2005, we
sold substantially all of the assets and certain liabilities of our secure network services
business (SNS). We are continuing to focus on our core high availability maintenance services
business while at the same time evaluating our future strategic direction.
We offer a growing list of services to businesses, global service providers, governmental agencies,
and other organizations. Our services are customized to meet each customers needs providing
7x24x365 service, personnel with required security clearances for certain governmental programs,
project management services, depot repair and roll out services. We believe the flexible services
we offer to our customers enable us to tailor a solution to obtain maximum efficiencies within
their budgeting constraints.
When we are awarded a contract to provide services, we may incur expenses before we receive any
contract payments. This may result in a cash short fall that may impact our working capital and
financing. This may also cause fluctuations in operating results as start-up costs are expensed as
incurred.
11
Our goal is to maintain profitable operations, expand our customer base of clients through our
existing global service provider partners, seek new global service provider partners, and enhance
the technology we utilize to deliver cost-effective services to our growing customer base. Our
ability to increase profitability will be impacted by our ability to continue to compete within the
industry, and our ability to replace contracts which were sold in connection with the sale
of the secure network services business. We must also effectively manage expenses in relation to
revenues by directing new business development towards markets that complement or improve our
existing service lines. We must continue to emphasize operating efficiencies through cost
containment strategies, re-engineering efforts and improved service delivery techniques,
particularly within costs of services, selling, marketing and general and administrative expenses.
Our future operating results may be affected by a number of factors including uncertainties
relative to national economic conditions and terrorism, especially as they affect interest rates,
the reduction in revenue as a result of the sale of our secure network services business, industry
factors and our ability to successfully increase our sales of services, accurately estimate costs
when bidding on a contract, and effectively manage expenses.
We have streamlined our service delivery process, expanded our depot repair facility to repair
rather than purchase new component parts and are working with our customers to modify the processes
under which services are rendered to our customers.
The industry in which we operate has experienced unfavorable economic conditions and competitive
challenges. We continue to experience significant price competition and customer demand for higher
service attainment levels. In addition, there is significant price competition in the market for
state and local government contracts as a result of budget issues, political pressure and other
factors beyond our control. It has been our experience that longevity and quality of service may
have little influence in the customer decision making process.
On June 30, 2005, we simultaneously entered into and closed on an asset purchase agreement with
INDUS pursuant to which we sold substantially all of the assets and certain liabilities of our
secure network services business (SNS). The purchase price was approximately $12.5 million, in
addition to adjustments for working capital of approximately of $608,000 for total consideration
approximately $13.1 million. The asset purchase agreement provided that $3.0 million of the
purchase price was to be held in escrow as security to obtain certain consents, novations, and
indemnification obligations. On July 8, 2005, $1.0 million of the amount held in escrow to serve
as security to obtain certain consents was released to us. Certain novations and consents required
under the asset purchase agreement were received and on January 26, 2006, and $1.375 million plus
accrued interest of $24,000 was released to us. Accordingly, $625,000 of the original escrow amount
plus accrued interest remains in escrow as security for the payment of the Companys
indemnification obligations pursuant to the asset purchase agreement.
If there were no such obligations, these funds would have been released to the Company eighteen
(18) months following the date of closing, or December 31, 2006. However, on December 28, 2006, we
received a Notice of Claim from Indus, pursuant to which Indus alleged various breaches of certain
representations and warranties in the Agreement by us. Indus takes the position that these alleged
breaches entitle Indus to indemnification. As a result, Indus further takes the position that the
entire amount remaining in Escrow which totaled $625,000, plus interest, should be disbursed to
Indus. We delivered a Response Notice to the escrow agent and Indus and disputed the claims of
Indus set forth in its Notice of Claim. We believe the claim is without merit and are working
vigorously to resolve the matter. (See Note 2 of the notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
contained in the Companys Form 10-Q for the quarter ended December 31, 2005 for a discussion of
the provisions related to the novations and consents the Company was required to and did obtain.)
The asset purchase agreement contains representations, warranties, covenants and related
indemnification provisions, in each case that are customary in connection with a transaction of
this type; however, certain of the representations and warranties require updating to a date which
is the earlier of the contract novation or thirty months from the closing. In addition, survival
periods applicable to such updated warranties may be extended together with related indemnification
periods.
Subsequent to our year end, we have identified an inconsistency in our original reporting of this
transaction contained in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2006. In
applying the guidance contained in paragraph 39 of SFAS No. 142 in recording the gain, goodwill
should have been allocated to the basis of SNS based on its relative fair value. The effect of this
adjustment would have been a reduction to the loss from operations from approximately $4.7 million
to $1.5 million, as there would not have been an impairment of goodwill,
12
with an offsetting reduction of the related gain on sale from approximately $5.7 million to $2.5
million. Net income as reported did not change as a result of this inconsistency. On January 18,
2007, management of the Company completed its review and determined that a restatement of its
annual report filed on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2006 and quarterly reports for the
quarters ended June 30, 2005, September 30, 2005 and December 31, 2005 was necessary. We are in
the process of amending our filings.
The financial information presented for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2005 has been
restated to reflect the correction of the items discussed above. The following table summarizes the
corrections to the financial information for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2005.

Revenues
Revenues are generated from the sale of high availability enterprise maintenance services and
technology deployment (consisting of professional services, seat management and deployment
services, and product sales). Services revenues include monthly recurring fixed unit-price
contracts as well as time-and-material contracts. Amounts billed in advance of the services period
are recorded as unearned revenues and recognized when earned. The revenues and related expenses
associated with product held for resale are recognized when the products are delivered and accepted
by the customer.

Revenues for the three months ended December 31, 2006 decreased 6%, or $787 thousand, to
$12.6 million from $13.4 million for the three months ended December 31, 2005. For the nine
months ended December 31, 2006, revenues decreased 10%, or $4.3 million, from $42 million to $37.7
million. Revenues from services for the three months ended December 31, 2006 decreased 4%, or
$507,000, to $12.1 million from $12.6 million for the three
months ended December 31, 2005. For the nine months ended December 31, 2006, services revenues
decreased 8%, or $3.3 million, to $35.6 million from $38.9 million for the comparable period ended
December 31, 2005. The decrease in revenues for the three and nine month periods was attributable
to our resignation from a large, nationwide enterprise maintenance contract, partially offset by
new, more profitable business.
For the three months ended December 31, 2006, product held for resale decreased $280,000, or 34%,
from $831,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2005 to $551,000 for the three months ended
December 31, 2006. For the nine months ended December 31, 2006, product held for resale decreased
34%, or $1.0 million, from $3.1 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2005 to $2.0 million
for the three months ended December 31, 2006. The decrease in product held for resale was the
absence of several large one time orders during the three and nine months ended December 31, 2006.
We have de-emphasized product sales and intend to focus on our recurring services revenue model for
enterprise maintenance solutions. As a result, we do not expect to see any material increases in
product sales in future periods.
Costs
Included within costs are direct costs, including fringe benefits, product and part costs, and
other costs.
A large part of our service costs are support costs and expenses that include direct labor and
infrastructure costs to support our service offerings. As we continue to expand our service
offerings, we anticipate that the direct costs to
support these service offerings will continue to increase in relation to the growth in revenues,
however, our overall costs as a percent of revenue are expected to decrease as on-going cost
containment efforts continue. We continue to aggressively pursue cost containment strategies and
augment our service delivery process with automation tools.
On long-term fixed unit-price contracts, part costs vary depending upon the call volume received
from customers during the period. Many of these costs are volume driven and as volumes increase,
these costs as a percentage of revenues increase, negatively impacting profit margins.
The variable components of costs associated with fixed price contracts are part costs, overtime,
subcontracted labor, mileage reimbursed, and freight. Part costs are highly variable and dependent
on several factors, based on the types of equipment serviced, equipment age and usage, and
environment. On long-term fixed unit-price contracts, parts and peripherals are consumed on
service calls.
For installation services and seat management services, product may consist of hardware, software,
cabling and other materials that are components of the service performed. Product held for resale
consists of hardware and software.

Total costs for the three months ended December 31, 2006 decreased $1.9 million, to $11.2
million, or 14%, from $13.1 million for the same period in 2005. For the nine months ended
December 31, 2006, total costs decreased $5.9 million, or 15%, to $33.5 million compared to $39.4
million for the comparable period in 2005. As discussed above, the decease in service costs was
primarily related to our resignation from a large, nationwide, loss generating enterprise
maintenance contract. In addition, initial start-up costs related to the start of certain new
contracts had a negative impact on our third quarter results. For the three and nine months ended
December 31, 2006, product costs decreased as a result of decreased revenues.
Gross Margin
As a percentage of revenues, gross margin was 11% for the three months ended December 31, 2006
compared to 2% the same three month period ended December 31, 2005. The gross margin percentage
was 11% for the nine months ended December 31, 2006 and 6% for the nine months ended December 31,
2005, respectively. For the three months ended December 31, 2006, our gross margins improved 346%
growing to $1.4 million, from $314,000 in the same period ended December 31, 2005. For the nine months ended December 31, 2006, gross margin
increased 62% from $2.6 million in fiscal year 2005 to $4.2 million. As discussed above, the
improvement in our gross margin was the result of our resignation from a large, nationwide, loss
generating enterprise maintenance contract, and increases in new, more profitable business.
Selling and Marketing Expense
Selling and marketing expense consists primarily of salaries, commissions, travel costs and related
expenses.
Selling and marketing expense was $243,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2006 compared to
$346,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2005, a decrease of $103,000, or 30%. For the
nine months ended December 31, 2006, selling and marketing expense decreased from $785,000 to $1.1
million a 29% decrease for the nine months ended December 31, 2005. The decrease in selling and
marketing expense was the result of reduced personnel costs.
General and Administrative
Our general and administrative expenses consist primarily of non-allocated overhead costs. These
costs include executive salaries, accounting, contract administration, professional services such
as legal and audit, business insurance, occupancy and other costs.
For the three months ended December 31, 2006, general and administrative expenses decreased from
$913,000 to $847,000 compared to the three months ended December 31, 2005, a decrease of 7%. For
the nine months ended December 31, 2006, general and administrative expenses decreased from $2.7
million for the nine months ended December 31, 2005 to $2.6 million for the nine months ended
December 31, 2006, a decrease of approximately $141,000. The primary reason for the decrease in
general and administrative expenses was decreases in personnel costs and depreciation expense.
Various factors such as changes in the insurance markets and related costs associated with
complying with new Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) regulations and American Stock
Exchange requirements, and amending our SEC filings will increase general and administrative
expenses and will have a negative impact on our earnings in future periods.
We account for stock-based compensation in accordance with SFAS 123(R), Share-Based Payments.
Under the fair value recognition provisions of this statement, share-based compensation cost is
measured at the grant date based on the value of the award and recognized as expense over the
vesting period. Determining the fair value of the share-based awards at the grant date requires
judgment, including estimated volatility, dividend yield, expected term and
16
estimated forfeitures of the options granted and are included in general and administrative
expense. For the three and nine months ended December 31, 2006, we reported of compensation
expense of approximately $8,000 and $27,000, respectively. There was no compensation expense
related to stock options for the comparable period last year.
Interest Expense
Interest expense for the three months ended December 31, 2006 was $171,000 compared to $135,000 for
the same period in 2005. For the nine months ended December 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005,
interest expense was $492,000 and $458,000, respectively. The primary reason for the increase in
interest expense during the three months ended December 31, 2006 was higher interest rates and
increased borrowings when compared to the three and nine months ended December 31, 2005.
Income Tax Expense (Benefit)
For the three months ended December 31, 2006, we recorded an income tax expense of $97,000 compared
to an income tax benefit of $441,000 for the comparable period in 2005. For the nine months ended
December 31, 2006, we recorded an income tax expense of $197,000 compared to an income tax benefit
of $665,000 for the nine months ended December 31, 2005. The effective tax rate for the three and
nine months ended December 31, 2006 was approximately 55% compared to (36) % for the same periods
last year. The increase in the tax provision is attributable to the return to profitability. The
change in the effective rate from fiscal year 2006 to fiscal year 2007 was attributable to
recording a tax benefit due to the losses from continuing operations in fiscal year 2006 compared
to tax expense in during fiscal year 2007. The effective tax rate of 55% was a result of
increasing income per books for items which are not deductible for tax purposes, including such
items as amortization of intangibles and other non deductible items.
Income from discontinued operations
For the nine months ended December 31, 2005, income from discontinued operations was $310,000, net
of income taxes of $164,000.
Net income
For the three months ended December 31, 2006, the net income was $51,000 compared to net income of
$1.4 million for the comparable period in 2005. For the nine months ended December 31, 2006, we
recorded net income of $157,000 compared to net income of $1.4 million for the nine months ended
December 31, 2005. As discussed above, the reasons for the improvement in our operating results
for the three and nine month periods ended December 31, 2006, was new, profitable business awarded
this fiscal year and our resignation from a large, nationwide, loss generating enterprise
maintenance contract. During the quarter ended December 31, 2005, we recorded a gain on the sale
of SNS of $2.2 million, resulting in net income for the three and none months ended of $1.4 million
and $1.3 million, respectively.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of December 31, 2006, we had approximately $112,000 of cash on hand. Sources of our cash for
the three months ended December 31, 2006 have been from earnings from operations and our revolving
credit facility.
We anticipate that our primary sources of liquidity in the fourth fiscal quarter will be cash on
hand, cash generated from operating income and the cash available to us under our revolving credit
agreement.
Cash generated from operations may be affected by a number of factors. See Item 1A. and Risk
Factors in our Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2006 for a discussion of the factors that
can negatively impact the amount of cash we generate from our operations.
In July 2006, we signed multiple new enterprise maintenance solutions contracts and service
agreements with various partners. The annual value of the contracts, in total, was approximately
$6.2 million. The Company commenced services under all the contracts/agreements in July 2006. The
contracts are expected to generate revenues of approximately $3.0 million over the next twelve
months. With the commencement of these new engagements, we also amended and restated our credit
and security agreement to provide for an auxiliary revolver facility with a
17
maximum borrowing capacity of $1.0 million, to provide additional working capital for the start-up
costs related to new contracts, should the need arise. There were no advances under the auxiliary
revolver facility during the quarter ended December 31, 2006.
Although we have no current plans to undertake any future debt or equity financing, we will pursue
all potential funding alternatives in the event we need additional capital. Among the
possibilities for raising additional funds are issuances of debt or equity securities, and other
borrowings under secured or unsecured loan arrangements. There can be no assurances that additional
funds will be available to us on acceptable terms or in a timely manner.
Our future financial performance will depend on our ability to continue to reduce and manage
operating expenses, as well as our ability to grow revenues through obtaining new contracts and
replacing the revenue from contracts sold in connection with the sale of the secure networks
services business. Our revenues will continue to be impacted by the loss of customers due to price
competition and technological advances. Our future financial performance could be negatively
affected by unforeseen factors and unplanned expenses. See Item 1A and Risk Factors in our Form
10-K for the year ended March 31, 2006.
In furtherance of our business strategy, transactions we may enter into could increase or decrease
our liquidity at any point in time. If we were to obtain a significant contract or make contract
modifications, we may be required to expend our cash or incur debt, which will decrease our
liquidity. Conversely, if we dispose of assets, we may receive proceeds from such sales which
could increase our liquidity. From time to time, we may entertain discussions concerning
acquisitions and dispositions which, if consummated, could impact our liquidity, perhaps
significantly.
We expect to continue to require funds to meet remaining interest and principal payment
obligations, capital expenditures and other non-operating expenses. Our future capital
requirements will depend on many factors, including revenue growth, expansion of our service
offerings and business strategy. We believe that our earnings from operations, available funds,
together with our existing revolving credit facility, will be adequate to satisfy our current and
planned operations for at least the next 12 months.
At December 31, 2006 and March 31, 2006 we had working capital of $9.7 million. The current ratio
was 2.05 at December 31, 2006 compared to 1.87 at March 31, 2006.
Capital expenditures for the nine months ended December 31, 2006 were $246,000 as compared to
$248,000 for the same period in 2005. We anticipate fiscal year 2007 technology requirements to
result in capital expenditures totaling approximately $500,000. We continue to sublease a portion
of our headquarters building which reduces our rent expense by approximately $400,000 annually.
On July 6, 2006, we and our subsidiaries amended and restated our Second Amended and Restated Loan
and Security Agreement with Provident Bank to extend the maturity date under the agreement to June
30, 2008. We also amended and restated the agreement to provide for an auxiliary revolver facility
with a maximum borrowing capacity of $1.0 million, which is based upon a borrowing base of up to
25% of our eligible inventory. The aggregate amount available to us under the agreement was
reduced to $10.0 million effective December 27, 2006, due to excess borrowing capacity. Such amount
may be restored in the future if required for operations. We are permitted to use the proceeds of
the auxiliary revolver facility for costs related to the commencement of any new contract. The
amount outstanding under the agreement bears interest at the banks prime rate plus one-quarter
percent (0.25%). We will also pay an unused commitment fee on the difference between the maximum
amount we can borrow and the amount advanced, determined by the average daily amount outstanding
during the period. The difference is multiplied by one-quarter percent (0.25%). This amount is
payable on December 31, 2006 and on the last day of each quarter until the agreement has been
terminated. Additionally, we will pay a fee of $1,000 per month. Advances under the agreement are
collateralized by a first priority security interest on all of our assets as defined in the
agreement. As of December 31, 2006, $6.4 million was outstanding and $3.6 million was available to
us. At December 31, 2006, there were no advances under the auxiliary revolver facility. The
interest rate at December 31, 2006 was 8.5%.
The agreement contains representations, warranties and covenants that are that are customary in
connection with a transaction of this type. The agreement contains certain covenants including,
but not limited to: (i) maintaining our accounts in a cash collateral account at Provident Bank,
the funds in which accounts we may apply in our discretion against our obligations owed to
Provident Bank, (ii) notifying Provident Bank in writing of any cancellation of a contract
18
having annual revenues in excess of $250,000, (iii) in the event receivables arise out of
government contracts, we will assign to Provident Bank all government contracts with amounts
payable of $100,000 or greater and in duration of nine
months or longer, (iv) obtaining written consent from Provident Bank prior to permitting a change
in ownership of more than 25% of the stock or other equity interests of us and our subsidiaries or
permit us or any of such entities to enter into any merger or consolidation or sell or lease substantially all of our or its assets, and (v)
obtaining prior written consent of Provident Bank, subject to exceptions, to make payments of debt
to any person or entity or making any distributions of any kind to any officers, employees or
members. The agreement also contains certain financial covenants which we are required to maintain
including, but not limited to tangible net worth, current ratio, total liabilities to net worth
ratio, debt service coverage and current ratio, as more fully described in the agreement.
Events of default, include, but are not limited to: (i) a determination by Provident Bank that the
financial condition of us or any person or entity that generally is now or hereafter liable,
directly, contingently or otherwise obligated to pay Provident Bank under the agreement (Other
Obligor) is unsatisfactory, (ii) we or an Other Obligor becomes insolvent,
(iii) the suspension of business, or commission of an act amounting to business failure by us or
any Other Obligor, (iv) a change in more than 25% of the ownership of us without the prior written
consent of Provident Bank, and (v) the occurrence of an event which is, or with the passage of time
or the giving of notice or both, a default under any indebtedness in excess of $100,000 of us or
any Other Obligor. Upon an event of default, our lender may (i) accelerate and call immediately
due and payable all of the unpaid principal, accrued interest and other sums due as of the date of
default, (ii) impose the default rate of interest with or without acceleration, (iii) file suit
against us or any Other Obligor, (iv) seek specific performance or injunctive relief to enforce
performance of our obligations (v) exercise any rights of a secured creditor under the Uniform
Commercial Code, (vi) cease making advances or extending credit to us and stop and retract the
making of any advances which we may have requested, and (vii) reduce the maximum amount we are
permitted to borrow under the agreement. We have also authorized Provident Bank, upon a default,
but without prior notice to or demand upon us and without prior opportunity of us to be heard, to
institute an action for replevin, with or without bond as Provident Bank may elect to obtain
possession of any of the collateral.
At December 31, 2006, we were in compliance with the financial covenants contained in our revolving
credit agreement.
If our customer base were to remain constant, we expect to have approximately $3.0 million
available on our revolving credit agreement through the next twelve months. If we were to obtain a
significant new contract or make contract modifications, we will generally be required to invest
significant initial start-up funds which are subsequently billed to customers and as a result may
be required to draw down on our credit facility.
The revolving credit agreement prohibits the payment of dividends or distributions as well as
limits the payment of principal or interest on our subordinated debt, which is not paid until we
obtain a waiver from the bank.
In conjunction with the acquisition of AlphaNational, we issued notes to the former AlphaNational
shareholders in the aggregate amount of $168,000, with an interest rate of 6% per annum. The notes
and accrued interest were paid in full in April 2006.
Our subordinated debt agreements with Nancy Scurlock and the Arch C. Scurlock Childrens Trust,
which are affiliates, totaled $1.0 million at December 31, 2006. Pursuant to a subordination
agreement between our lender and the subordinated debt holders, principal repayment and interest
payable on the subordinated debt agreements may not be paid without the consent of the bank. On
December 31, 2006, the affiliates held in the aggregate $500,000 and $500,000 face amounts of our
8% promissory notes, with an aggregate outstanding principal balance of $1.0 million. Interest
payable to the affiliates was approximately $122,000 at December 31, 2006.
With the amendment and restatement of our Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement with
Provident Bank, the maturity date of our 8% promissory notes with these affiliates was extended to
July 1, 2008, which is the next day immediately succeeding the expiration of the revolving credit
agreement.
Off Balance Sheet Arrangements
In conjunction with a government contract, we act as a conduit in a financing transaction on behalf
of a third party. We routinely transfer receivables to a third party in connection with equipment
sold to end users. The credit risk passes to the third party at the point of sale of the
receivables. Under the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
19
No. 140, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishment of
Liabilities, transfers were accounted for as sales, and as a result, the related receivables have
been excluded from the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The amount paid to us for the
receivables by the transferee is equal to our carrying value and therefore
there is no gain or loss recognized. The end user remits its monthly payments directly to an escrow
account held by a third party from which payments are made to the transferee and us, for various
services provided to the end users. We
provide limited monthly servicing whereby we invoice the end user on behalf of the transferee.
The off-balance sheet transactions had no impact on our liquidity or capital resources. We are not
aware of any event, demand or uncertainty that would likely terminate the agreement or have an
adverse affect on our operations.
New Accounting Standards
In July 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 48 (FIN No. 48), Accounting for Uncertainty
in Income Taxes, which prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement process for recording in
the financial statements uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return.
Additionally, FIN No. 48 provides guidance on the derecognition, classification, accounting in
interim periods and disclosure requirements for uncertain tax positions. The accounting provisions
of FIN No. 48 will be effective for us beginning April 1, 2007 and we are in the process of
determining the effect, if any, the adoption of FIN No. 48 will have on our financial condition or
results of operations.
In September 2006, the FASB issued FASB Statement No. 157 (SFAS 157), Fair Value Measurements.
SFAS 157 proscribes a single definition of fair value as the price that would be received to sell
an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at
the measurement date. The accounting provisions of SFAS 157 will be effective for us beginning
April 1, 2008. We do not believe the adoption of SFAS 157 will have a material impact on our
financial condition or results of operations.
In September 2006, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 108 (SAB 108). SAB 108 addresses
how the effects of prior year uncorrected misstatements should be considered when quantifying
misstatements in current year financial statements. SAB 108 requires companies to quantify
misstatements using a balance sheet and income statement approach and to evaluate whether either
approach results in quantifying an error that is material in light of relevant quantitative and
qualitative factors. When the effect of initial adoption is material, companies will record the
effect as a cumulative effect adjustment to beginning of year retained earnings. SAB 108 will be
effective for us beginning March 31, 2007. We do not believe the initial adoption will have a
material impact on our financial condition.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
We are exposed to changes in interest rates, primarily as a result of using bank debt to finance
our business. The floating interest debt exposes us to interest rate risk, with the primary
interest rate exposure resulting from changes in the prime rate. It is assumed in the table below
that the prime rate will remain constant in the future. Adverse changes in the interest rates or
our inability to refinance our long-term obligations may have a material negative impact on our
results of operations and financial condition.
The definitive extent of the interest rate risk is not quantifiable or predictable because of the
variability of future interest rates and business financing requirements. We do not customarily
use derivative instruments to adjust our interest rate risk profile.
The information below summarizes our sensitivity to market risks as of December 31, 2006. The
table presents principal cash flows and related interest rates by year of maturity of our funded
debt. The carrying value of our debt approximately equals the fair value of the debt. Note 6 to
the consolidated financial statements in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended March
31, 2006 contains descriptions of funded debt and should be read in conjunction with the table
below.

At December 31, 2006, we had $7.6 million of debt outstanding of which $1.2 million bears fixed
interest rates. If the interest rates charged to us on our variable rate debt were to increase
significantly, the effect could be materially adverse to our future operations.
We conduct a limited amount of business overseas, principally in Western Europe. At the present,
all transactions are billed and denominated in U.S. dollars and consequently, we do not currently
have any material exposure to foreign exchange rate fluctuation risk.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Quarterly Evaluation of the Companys Disclosure Controls and Internal Controls. The
Company evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure controls and
procedures as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the
Act), as of the end of the period covered by this Form 10-Q (Disclosure Controls). This
evaluation (Disclosure Controls Evaluation) was done under the supervision and with the
participation of management, including the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Chief Financial
Officer (CFO).
The Companys management, with the participation of the CEO and CFO, also conducted an evaluation
of the Companys internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the
Act, to determine whether any changes occurred during the period ended December 31, 2006 that have
materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Companys internal control
over financial reporting (Internal Controls Evaluation).
During fiscal year 2005, we began to evaluate our internal controls over financial reporting in
order to satisfy the requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, which requires annual
management assessments of the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting and a
report by our independent auditors addressing these assessments beginning in fiscal year ending
March 31, 2008. In this regard, management will be required to dedicate
21
internal resources to (i) assess and document the adequacy of internal controls over financial
reporting, and (ii) take steps to improve control processes, where appropriate. If we fail to
correct any issues in the design or operating effectiveness of internal controls over financial
reporting or fail to prevent fraud, current and potential stockholders and customers could lose
confidence in our financial reporting, which could harm our business, the trading price of our
stock and our ability to retain our current customers and obtain new customers.
Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls. Control systems, no matter how well
conceived and operated, are designed to provide a reasonable, but not an absolute, level of
assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control
system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must
be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems,
no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of
fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. Because of the inherent limitations in a
cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.
The Company conducts periodic evaluation of its internal controls to enhance, where necessary, its
procedures and controls.
Conclusions. Based upon the Disclosure Controls Evaluation, the CEO and CFO have concluded
that the Disclosure Controls are effective in reaching a reasonable level of assurance that (i)
information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under
the Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the
Securities and Exchange Commissions rules and forms and (ii) information required to be disclosed
by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Act is accumulated and
communicated to the Companys management, including its principal executive and principal financial
officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions
regarding required disclosure.
There were no changes in internal controls over financial reporting as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of
the Act that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect internal
controls over the Companys internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
Except as discussed below, there are no material pending legal proceedings to which we are
a party. From time to time, we are engaged in ordinary routine litigation incidental to
our business. While we cannot predict the ultimate outcome of these matters, or other
routine litigation matters, it is managements opinion that the resolution of these
matters should not have a material effect on our financial position or results of
operations.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully
consider the factors discussed in Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors in our Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2006, which could materially affect our business,
financial condition or future results. The risk factors in our Annual Report on Form 10-K
have not materially changed. The risks described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K are not
the only risks facing our Company. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known
to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our
business, financial condition and/or operating results.
