Halifax Corporation of Virginia
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 periods presented. The results for the nine
months ended December 31, 2007, 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 Corporation of Virginias (the Company) annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended
March 31, 2007 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Note 2 Managements Plans
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a basis which
contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the
normal course of business. As disclosed elsewhere herein, the Company will not have sufficient
cash to repay amounts due under its revolving credit facility on April 30, 2008 absent an equity or
debt financing or entering into a new credit facility with another financial institution or another
financing transaction, which is sufficient to repay the amounts outstanding. Our ability to
continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to become
profitable, generate positive cash flow from operations, obtain new financing to meet obligations
and repay liabilities when they come due. We are seeking to increase profitability, cash flow and
liquidity. Managements plans include securing new customers, reducing overhead costs and seeking
a more competitive capital structure. Although we continue to pursue these plans, there is no
assurance that we will be successful in generating such profitable operations or obtaining new
financing on acceptable terms or at all. The Company has in the past not met the financial
covenants included in its revolving credit facility; the Company did, however, on January 31, 2008,
obtain waivers of all existing defaults and resets of the applicable financial covenants. There
can be no assurances the Company will be able to comply with the financial covenants contained in
the revolving credit facility on March 31, 2008 or thereafter. In the future, the Company may not
be successful in obtaining a waiver of non-compliance with these financial covenants. If the
Company is unable to comply with the financial covenants, absent a waiver, it will be in default of
the revolving credit facility and the financial institution can take any of the actions discussed
below.
These factors raise doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The Company plans to
satisfy our capital needs through any cash we can generate from our operations, new financing in
the form of equity or debt, subject to the approval of our lenders where required. These unaudited
consolidated financial statements included in this report do not include any adjustments to the
amounts and classification of assets and liabilities that may be necessary should the Company be
unable to continue as a going concern.
The Company is exploring a variety of alternative financing options, including a new credit
facility to replace the existing revolving credit facility, sale-leaseback transactions and the
sale of debt or equity. There can be no assurances that the Company will be able to complete an
equity or debt financing, enter into a new large enough credit facility on terms that are favorable
to the Company or at all or a sale-leaseback transaction. The Companys failure to complete a new
financing, enter into a new credit facility or complete a sale-leaseback transaction on unfavorable
terms to the Company would have a material adverse effect on the Companys operations, financial
condition, results of operations and its ability to continue as a going concern. If the Company is
unable to pay its obligations under the revolving credit facility when they become due, the Company
may be forced to restrict its operations and the financial institution has the right, among other
things, to declare an event of default which would enable the financial institution to foreclose on
our assets securing the revolving credit facility.
4
Since January 31, 2008, the Company has received $500,000 from a capitalized lease of equipment
that was previously purchased. The proceeds were used to reduce its auxiliarry line of credit. In addition, the
Company is in discussions with several financial institutions to
replace its existing facility as
well as in discussions to raise additional equity, which management believes it will able to
conclude in order avert any of the aforementioned items.

Note 4 Inventory
Inventory consists principally of spare parts, computers and computer peripherals, hardware and
software. Inventory is recorded net of an allowance for obsolescence of $2.0 million at December
31, 2007 and $1.2 million at March 31, 2007.
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.
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 should remain fully reserved at December 31, 2007.
The Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No. 48 (FIN 48), Accounting
for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, as of April 1, 2007. This standard modifies the previous guidance
provided by Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 5 (FAS 5), Accounting for
Contingencies and Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 109 (FAS 109), Accounting for
Income Taxes for uncertainties related to the companys income tax liabilities. The Company has
analyzed its income tax posture using the criteria required by FIN 48 and concluded that there is a
$20,000 cumulative effect inclusive of penalty and interest allocable to equity or derecognition of
deferred tax assets as a result of adopting this standard. The adjustment is due to potential
exposure arising from increases in state income taxes in higher tax rate states from lower tax rate
states as a result of differing methodologies that may be applied for apportionment.
There is no increase recorded through December 31, 2007 related to material changes to the
measurement of unrecognized tax benefits in various taxing jurisdictions. The Company is
maintaining its historical method of not accruing interest (net of related tax benefits) and
penalties associated with unrecognized income tax benefits as a component of income tax expense.
Interest expense and penalty expense related to income taxes, if any, are included in interest
expense and general and administrative expenses, respectively, in the statements of operations. For
the nine months ended December 31, 2007, the Company has not recorded any material interest or penalty
expense related to income taxes. The total amount of unrecognized tax benefits as of December 31,
2007, if recognized, would have a $20,000 effect on income tax expense and would impact the
effective tax rate.
5
The tax return years from 1999 forward in the Companys major tax jurisdictions are not settled as
of December 31, 2007; no changes in settled tax years have occurred through December 31, 2007. Due
to the existence of tax attribute carryforwards (which are currently offset by a full valuation
allowance), the Company treat certain post-1999 tax positions as unsettled due to the taxing
authorities ability to modify these attributes.
The Company estimates that it is reasonably possible that no reduction in unrecognized tax benefits
may occur in the next twelve months due primarily to the expiration of the statute of limitations
in various state and local jurisdictions. The Company does not currently estimate any additional
material reasonably possible uncertain tax positions occurring within the next twelve-month time
frame.
Note 6 Debt Obligations
On February 5, 2008, Halifax Corporation of Virginia and its subsidiaries (collectively under Note
5, the Company) entered into a Second Amendment and Waiver with Provident Bank (the Bank),
effective January 31, 2008 (the Amendment). The Amendment amends and waives certain provisions
of the Fourth Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement dated as of June 29, 2007 (as
amended by the First Amendment and Waiver dated November 13, 2007 and the Amendment), among the
same parties to the Amendment (Loan Agreement), related to the terms of the line of credit and
auxiliary revolver facility provided by the Bank.
As of December 31, 2007, $5.9 million was outstanding. Prior to the Amendment, amounts outstanding
under the Loan Agreement bore interest at Provident Banks prime rate plus one-quarter percent
(7.5% at December 31, 2007). Under the Amendment, amounts outstanding under the revolving line of
credit will bear interest at Provident Banks prime rate plus one percent (1%) and amounts
outstanding under the auxiliary revolver facility will bear interest at Provident Banks prime rate
plus two percent (2%). 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 will be multiplied by one-quarter percent
(0.25%). This amount will be payable on the last day of each quarter until the Loan Agreement has
been terminated. Additionally, the Company will pay a fee of $1,000 per month. Advances under the
Loan Agreement are collateralized by a first priority security interest on all of the Companys
assets as defined in the Loan Agreement.
Under the Amendment, the auxiliary revolver facility maximum credit amount was reduced to $900,000
from $1.0 million and the maximum line of credit amount was reduced to $6.0 million from
$7.5million. Additionally, the Company cannot request any advance under the line of credit after
April 28, 2008 and all amounts outstanding under the line of credit (including outstanding
principal and accrued and unpaid interest thereon) are due and payable in full on April 30, 2008
unless the Company has received an indefeasible capital infusion of not less than $1.25 million in
the form of either stockholders equity or subordinated debt acceptable to the Bank (Capital
Infusion) by April 15, 2008. If the Company has received such Capital Infusion, the Company will
be permitted to continue to borrow funds under the line of credit until July 29, 2008 and all
amounts outstanding under the line of credit would be due and payable in full on July 31, 2008.
Since January 30, 2008, as the result of a lease of equipment and software which was previously
acquired and/or capitalized, the Company received $500,000, which satisfies a portion of the
$1,250,000 Capital Infusion.
The Amendment also requires that the Company make payments of $25,000 each on the 15th
day of February, March and April 2008 which sums will be applied to the reduction of the principal
amount outstanding under the auxiliary revolver facility and will constitute permanent reductions
to the auxiliary revolver facility maximum credit amount. As of February 1, 2008, the Company
cannot request any advance under the auxiliary revolver facility and all amounts outstanding under
the auxiliary revolver facility (including outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest
thereon) are due and payable in full on April 30, 2008. If, however, the Company provides the Bank
with evidence that the Company has received the Capital Infusion by April 15, 2008, then, upon
notice from the Bank, the Company will be required to make payments of $25,000 each on the
15th day of May, June and July 2008 and all amounts outstanding under the auxiliary
revolver facility will become due and payable in full on July 31, 2008.
6
In the event that the Bank consents to the Companys sale or financing of any of the Companys
assets other than assets sold in the ordinary course of the Companys business, including any
sale/leaseback of certain assets, the proceeds of such sale or financing must be paid directly to
the Bank to be applied to the reduction of the principal balance of the auxiliary revolver
facility. If the Company is in default of the Loan Agreement or Amendment, the payment received by
the Bank from such sale or financing will be applied in the manner determined by the Bank.
The Loan Agreement contained representations, warranties and covenants that are customary in
connection with a transaction of this type including, but not limited to: (i) maintaining the
Companys accounts in a cash collateral account at Provident Bank, the funds in which accounts the
Company may apply in its discretion against its obligations owed to Provident Bank, (ii) notifying
Provident Bank in writing of any cancellation of a contract having annual revenues in excess of
$250,000, (iii) in the event receivables arise out of government contracts, the Company will assign
to Provident Bank all government contracts with amounts payable of $100,000 or greater and in
duration of six 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 the
Company and its subsidiaries or permit the entry by the Company or its subsidiaries into a merger
or consolidation or sell or lease substantially all of the assets of the Company or it
subsidiaries, (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, and (vi) obtaining written consent from Provident Bank prior to entering into
or amending any contract with IBM or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates concerning work
performed for certain entities. The Loan Agreement also contained certain financial covenants
which the Company was required to maintain including, but not limited to, total liabilities to net
worth ratio of not greater than 4.0:1, and a debt service coverage equal to or greater than 1.25:1,
as more fully described in the revolving credit agreement.
The Amendment amended certain financial covenants contained in the Loan Agreement as follows:
(i) The Company shall at all times maintain a minimum Tangible Net Worth plus
Subordinated Debt of not less than $1,000,000 as of March 31, 2008.
(ii) The Company failing to maintain a Current Ratio equal to or greater than 1.0 as of
March 31, 2008.
For purposes of covenant measurements, any capital infusion or issuance of subordinated debt will
be deemed to have occurred after March 31, 2008.
In connection with the Amendment, the Bank also waived the Companys non-compliance with certain
financial and other covenants under the Loan Agreement including: (a) the Company failing to
maintain a minimum tangible net worth plus subordinated debt of not less than $4,000,000 as of
December 31, 2007; (b) the Company failing to maintain a ratio of total liabilities less
subordinated debt to tangible net worth plus subordinated debt of not greater than 4.0:1 as of
December 31, 2007; (c) the Company failing to maintain a current ratio equal to or greater than
1.4:1 as of December 31, 2007; and (d) the Company failing to pay the principal, interest and late
charges owed under the auxiliary revolver facility at the December 31, 2007 maturity thereof. The
failure to comply with these financial and other covenants constituted an event of default under
the Loan Agreement.
There can be no assurances the Company will be able to comply with the financial covenants
contained in the Loan Agreement and Amendment on March 31, 2008 or thereafter. In the future, the
Company may not be successful in obtaining a waiver of non-compliance with these financial
covenants. If the Company is unable to comply with the financial covenants, absent a waiver, it
will be in default of the Loan Agreement and Amendment and the Bank can take any of the actions
discussed above.
Events of default, include, but are not limited to: (i) a determination by Provident Bank that in
its discretion that the financial condition of the Company or any person or entity that generally
is now or hereafter liable, directly, contingently or otherwise obligated to pay Provident Bank
under the revolving credit agreement (Other Obligor) is unsatisfactory, (ii) the Company or an
Other Obligor becomes insolvent or an involuntary petition for bankruptcy filed against it, (iii) a
default under any indebtedness by the Company or any Other Obligor, and (iv) a change in more than
25% of the ownership of the Company without the prior written consent
of Provident Bank.
Provident Bank is also authorized, upon a default, but without prior notice to or demand upon the
Company and without prior opportunity of the Company 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.
7
The Company is required to pay the Bank an amendment fee of $34,500. Half of such amount was due
and paid at signing of the Amendment and the other half is due by March 31, 2008. If, however, the
Company fully repays amounts outstanding under the revolving line of credit and the auxiliary
revolver facility by March 31, 2008, no additional amendment fee will be due on March 31, 2008.
As of January 30, 2008, there was outstanding principal of $5,088,450 and accrued and unpaid
interest of $30,880 on the line of credit and outstanding principal of $900,000 and accrued and
unpaid interest of $17,909 on the auxiliary revolver facility. Since January 30, 2008, the Company
has repaid $789,563 on the auxiliary revolver facility, which included the funds the Company
received from the settlement agreement with INDUS Corporation and INDUS Secure Network Solutions,
LLC (collectively, Indus), discussed in Note 9 below.
For more information on the Companys Loan Agreement see, Managements Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations Liquidity and Capital Resources.
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 outstanding
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 outstanding 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 the Companys directors. The holders of the 8%
promissory notes are the Childrens Trust and Nancy M. Scurlock. The Companys 8% promissory notes
are subordinated to the Loan Agreement described above.
The Companys 8% promissory notes maturity date was extended to July 1, 2009. As of December 31,
2007, the aggregate principal balance of the 8% promissory notes was $1.0 million.
The Companys revised Loan 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 the Affiliates is accrued on a current basis.
The balance of accrued but unpaid interest due on the 8% promissory notes to the Affiliates was
approximately $202,000 at December 31, 2007.
Note 7 Stock Based Compensation and Earnings per Share

The intrinsic value of stock options outstanding at December 31, 2007 was approximately
$11,950.
As of December 31, 2007, there was $77,400 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to
nonvested share-based compensation arrangements. This cost is expected to be fully amortized in
five years, with 60% of the total amortization cost being recognized within the next 24 months.
For the three months ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, the Company recorded share based
compensation expense of $6,000 and $14,000, respectively, and for the nine months ended December
31, 2007 and 2006, recorded share based compensation expense of $19,000 and $27,000, respectively.

Note 8 New accounting standards
In December 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No. 141 (revised
2007), Business Combinations (SFAS No. 141R). SFAS No. 141R establishes principles and
requirements for how an acquirer recognizes and measures in its financial statements the
identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree
and the goodwill acquired. SFAS No. 141R also establishes disclosure requirements to enable the
evaluation of the nature and financial effects of the business combination. SFAS No. 141R is
effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and will be adopted by the Company in
the first quarter of fiscal 2010. The Company does not believe the adoption of SFAS No. 141R will
have a material impact on its consolidated results of operations and financial condition.
In February 2007, FASB issued FASB Statement No. 159 (SFAS No. 159), The Fair Value Option for
Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. SFAS No. 159 gives entities the option to report most
financial assets and liabilities at fair value, with changes in fair value recorded in earnings.
This statement, which is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, is not
expected to have a material impact on its financial condition or results of operations.
In September 2006, FASB issued FASB Statement No. 157 (SFAS No. 157), Fair Value Measurements.
SFAS No. 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 No. 157 will be effective for the
Company beginning April 1, 2008. The Company does not believe the adoption of SFAS No.157 will have
a material impact on its financial condition or results of operations.
Note 9 Commitments and Contingencies
On June 30, 2005, the Company simultaneously entered into and closed on an asset purchase agreement
(the Agreement) with Indus, pursuant to which the Company sold substantially all of the assets
and certain liabilities of its secure network business. The purchase price was approximately $12.5
million, subject to adjustments as provided in the Agreement, based on the net assets of the business on the closing date. The
Agreement also provided that $3,000,000 million of the purchase price be held in escrow (the
Escrow).
Pursuant to the Escrow Agreement with Indus, on July 8, 2005, the Company received $1,000,000 and
on January 26, 2006, it received $1,375,000. On or about December 31, 2006, an additional
$625,000, which was being held in escrow as security for the Companys indemnification obligations
under the Agreement, was to be disbursed to the Company. However, on December 28, 2006, the
Company received a Notice of Claim from Indus, pursuant to which Indus alleged various breaches of
certain representations and warranties in the Agreement by the Company. Indus took the position
that these alleged breaches entitled Indus to indemnification. As a result, Indus further took the
position that the entire amount remaining in escrow which totaled $625,000, plus interest of
approximately $71,000, should be disbursed to Indus. The total amount of $696,000 held in escrow
was recorded as restricted cash on the accompanying financial statements. The Company delivered a
Response Notice to the escrow agent and Indus disputing the claims of Indus set forth in its Notice
of Claim.
On June 26, 2007, the Company filed a complaint against Indus in the Circuit Court for the County
of Fairfax in Virginia requesting a declaratory judgment, and other relief, including a demand that
Indus withdraw its claim and disburse the funds in escrow in order to resolve the matter. On
August 1, 2007, Indus answered the Companys complaint and instituted a counterclaim. In the
counterclaim, Indus was seeking, among other things, a declaratory judgment and compensatory
damages in an amount up to $1,000,000, costs and other appropriate relief for breach of contract.
The Company filed a motion to dismiss a portion of the claim, which it won, and on October 19,
2007, Indus amended its counter claim. The Company filed a motion to dismiss a portion of the
counter claim, which it won on December 28, 2007.
On February 4, 2008, the Company entered into a settlement and release agreement (the Settlement
Agreement), with Indus. Under the Settlement Agreement, the Company and Indus agreed to settle
their claims against one another as set forth in the lawsuits. As a result of the settlement, the
Company recorded an expense of $410,000 during the quarter ended December 31, 2007.
Note 10 Transaction Costs
In December 2007, the Company terminated negotiations related to a potential significant
acquisition. As a result, the Company recorded a charge of approximately $458,000 for the three
months ended December 31, 2007 related to accounting, legal, and investment banking fees and other
transaction costs.

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 of Virginia
(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,
our ability to generate new business, our ability to maintain an effective system of internal
controls, risks related to acquisitions and our acquisition strategy, favorable banking
relationships, the availability of capital to finance operations, ability to obtain a new credit
facility on terms favorable to us, 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, 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. We
completed the following acquisitions: in September 2004, we completed the acquisition of
AlphaNational Technology Services, Inc.; in August 2003, we completed the acquisition of Microserv,
Inc.; and in December 2005, we acquired a contract from Technical Service and Support, Inc. 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. 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 return to 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. 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.
Managements Plans
Our future operating results may be affected by a number of factors including uncertainties
relative to our ability to maintain compliance with the financial and other covenants in our
Amendment to the Loan Agreement (as defined below), to national economic conditions and terrorism,
especially as they affect interest rates, industry factors and our ability to successfully increase
our sales of services, accurately estimate costs when bidding on a contract, our ability to obtain
alternative financing to replace our existing credit facility, and effectively manage expenses.
As disclosed elsewhere herein, the Company will not have sufficient cash to repay amounts due under
the Loan Agreement and Amendment on April 30, 2008 absent an equity or debt financing or entering
into a new credit facility with another financial institution or another financing transaction,
which is sufficient to repay the amount outstanding to the Bank. The Company is exploring a
variety of alternative financing options, including a new credit facility to replace the facility
currently provided by the Bank, sale-leaseback transactions and the sale of debt or equity to
satisfy the Capital Infusion requirements set forth in the Amendment.
We are seeking to increase profitability, cash flow and liquidity. Managements plans include
securing new customers, reducing overhead costs and seeking a more competitive capital structure.
Although we continue to pursue these plans, there is no assurance that we will be successful in
generating such profitable operations or obtaining new financing on acceptable terms or at all. The
Company has in the past not met the financial covenants included in its revolving credit facility;
the Company did, however, on January 31, 2008, obtain waivers of all existing defaults and resets
of the applicable financial covenants. There can be no assurances the Company will be able to
comply with the financial covenants contained in the revolving credit facility on March 31, 2008 or
thereafter. In the future, the Company may not be successful in obtaining a waiver of
non-compliance with these financial covenants. If the Company is unable to comply with the
financial covenants, absent a waiver, it will be in default of the revolving credit facility and
the financial institution can take any of the actions discussed below.
There can be no assurances that the Company will be able to complete an equity or debt financing,
enter into a new credit facility with sufficient capacity on terms that are favorable to the Company or at all
or a sale-leaseback transaction. The Companys failure to complete a new financing, enter into a
new credit facility or complete a sale-leaseback transaction on unfavorable terms to the Company
would have a material adverse effect on the Companys operations, financial condition, results of
operations and its ability to continue as a going concern. If the Company is unable to complete a
Capital Infusion by April 15, 2008, or obtain a new credit facility, the Company will be unable to
meet its debt obligations to the Bank. If the Company is unable to pay its obligations to the Bank
when they become due, the Company may be forced to restrict its operations and the Bank has the
right, among other things, to declare an event of default which would enable the Bank to foreclose
on our assets securing the Loan Agreement.
We plan to effectively manage expenses in relation to revenues by directing new business
development towards markets that complement or improve our existing service lines. Management must
continue to emphasize operating efficiencies through cost containment strategies, reengineering
efforts and improved service delivery techniques.
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.
12
In early 2007, we indentified a potential acquisition opportunity, coupled with an equity
investment which would have increased our size to better enable us to compete in the enterprise
maintenance market. Due to changes in the market
and valuation issues, we determined not to pursue this target in December 2007. As a result, we
recorded a charge to operations of $458,000 for transaction related costs.
On October 10, 2007, we announced the loss of a major contract valued at approximately $3.5 million
per year. The contract was terminated pursuant to its terms upon 30 days notice to us. The reason
for such termination was based strictly on price of services provided. We believe our service level
performance on this account has been above expectations. The contract work involved site based
maintenance services for an aeronautics company with locations throughout the U.S. which ended in
November 2007. We have provided services to this aeronautics company since 2006.We have taken
appropriate cost reduction actions to mimimize the impact of this contract loss.
On June 30, 2005, we simultaneously entered into and closed on an asset purchase agreement (the
Agreement) with INDUS Corporation and INDUS Secure Network Solutions, LLC ( collectively,
Indus), pursuant to which we sold substantially all of the assets and certain liabilities of our
secure network business. The Agreement provided that $3.0 million of the purchase price be held in
escrow (the Escrow).
On July 8, 2005, we received $1,000,000 and on January 26, 2006, we received $1,375,000 from the
Escrow. On or about December 31, 2006, an additional $625,000, which was being held in Escrow, was
to be disbursed to us. 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 took the position that these alleged breaches entitled Indus to
indemnification. As a result, Indus further took the position that the entire amount remaining in
escrow which totaled $625,000, plus interest of approximately $71,000, should be disbursed to
Indus. The total amount of $696,000 held in escrow was recorded as restricted cash on the
accompanying financial statements. The Company delivered a Response Notice to the escrow agent and
Indus disputing the claims of Indus set forth in its Notice of Claim. On June 26, 2007 we filed a
complaint against Indus in the Circuit Court for Fairfax County in Virginia requesting a
declaratory judgment, and other relief, including a demand that Indus withdraw its claim and
disburse the funds in escrow in order to resolve the matter. On August 1, 2007, Indus answered our
complaint and instituted a counterclaim. In the counterclaim, Indus was seeking among other
things, a declaratory judgment and compensatory damages in an amount up to $1,000,000, costs and
other appropriate relief for breach of contract. We filed a motion to dismiss a portion of the
claim, which we won, and on October 19, 2007, Indus amended its counter claim. We filed a motion
to dismiss the counter claim and on December 31, 2007, which we won.
Because of the ongoing cost of protracted lawsuit, on February 4, 2008, we announced the settlement
of the matter for $410,000. See Item I. Legal Proceedings in Part II of this Form 10-Q.
Since January 31, 2008, we received $500,000 from a lease of equipment and software that was
previously purchased and/or capitalized. In addition, we are in discussions with several financial
institutions to replace our existing facility as well as in discussions to raise additional equity,
which management believes it will able to conclude in order avert any of the aforementioned items.

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 from services for the three months ended December 31, 2007 decreased 18%, or $2.1
million, to $9.9 million from $12.1 million for the three months ended December 31, 2006. For the
nine months ended December 31, 2007, revenues from services decreased 7%, or $2.7 million to $33.0
million from $35.7 million for the comparable period ended December 31, 2006. For the three and
nine months ended December 31, 2007, the decrease in services revenues was the result of the
cessation of certain contracts including one large contract which represented $300,000 per month
in revenue.
For the three months ended December 31, 2007, product held for resale increased $36,000, or 7%,
from $551,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2006 to $587,000. The increase in product
held for resale was related to a large one time order during the three months ended December 31,
2007. For the nine months ended December 31, 2007, product held for resale decreased 9%, or
$175,000, for the nine months ended December 31, 2007 from $2.0 million for the nine months ended
December 31, 2006 to $1.9 million. The decrease in product held for resale was due to the absence
of several large one time orders during the nine months ended December 31, 2007. We have
de-emphasized product sales and intend to focus on our recurring services revenue model. As a
result, we do not expect to see any material increases in product sales in future periods.
Revenues for the three months ended December 31, 2007 decreased 17%, or $2.1 million, to $10.5
million from $12.6 million for the three months ended December 31, 2006. For the nine months ended
December 31, 2007, revenues decreased 8%, or $2.8 million, from $37.7 million for the nine months
ended December 31, 2006 to $34.9 million.
Operating costs and expenses
Included within operating costs and expenses 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. 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, 2007 decreased $1.0 million, to $10.2 million,
or 9%, from $11.2 million for the same period in 2006. For the nine months ended December 31,
2007, total costs decreased $2.0 million, or 6%, to $31.5 million compared to $33.5 million for the
comparable period in 2006. The reduction in costs was related to the reduction in revenue, offset
by a $1.0 million charge for obsolete inventory during the quarter ended December 31, 2007. There
has been a shift in our business to labor only services, causing an excess in the amounts of
inventory required to support our existing customers, resulting in this charge.
We continue to expand the use of automation tools introduced earlier in the year, which we believe,
in conjunction with our on-going cost containment efforts, will reduce our cost to deliver services
to our customers. We believe these tools will enable us to enter a new market which will to
positively affect our gross margins going forward.
Costs for product held for resale have decreased commensurate with the reductions in revenue.
Gross Margin
For the three months ended December 31, 2007, our gross margins decreased 79%, or $1.1 million,
from $1.4 million to $300,000. For the nine months ended December 31, 2007, gross margin decreased
21% from $4.2 million in for the nine months ended December 31, 2006 to $3.3 million. As discussed
above, the reduction in gross margins were the result of a charge for obsolete inventory, somewhat
offset by, on-going cost containment efforts, and efficiencies gained through the introduction of
new back office automation tools.
Selling and Marketing Expense
Selling and marketing expense consists primarily of salaries, commissions, travel costs and related
expenses.
Selling and marketing expense was $211,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2007 compared to
$243,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2006, a decrease of $32,000, or 13%. For the
nine months ended December 31, 2007, selling and marketing expense was $681,000 compared to
$785,000, a 13% decrease from the nine months ended December 31, 2006. 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, 2007, general and administrative expenses increased $56,000
to $903,000 compared to $847,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2006, an increase of 7%.
General and administrative expenses increased from $2.6 million for the nine months ended December
31, 2006 to $2.7 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2007, an increase of approximately
$153,000, or 6%. The primary reasons for the increase in general and administrative expense was
increases in professional fees related to compliance with Sarbanes-Oxley, increased bank fees and
higher depreciation expense related to the automation tools discussed above. Various factors such
as changes in the insurance markets and related costs associated with complying with new Securities
and Exchange Commission regulations and American Stock Exchange requirements may increase general
and administrative expenses and have a negative impact on our earnings in future periods.

We account for stock-based compensation in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards 123(R) (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 estimated forfeitures
of the options granted and are included
in general and administrative expense. For the three and nine months ended December 31, 2007, we
reported compensation expense of approximately $6,000 and $19,000, respectively, compared to
$14,000 and $27,000 for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2006, respectively.
Litigation Expense
In order to avoid the ongoing cost of litigation, on February 4, 2008, we settled the outstanding
lawsuit with Indus. As a result of recognizing the gain on the sale of our Secure Network Services
division during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2007, we incurred a charge for $410,000, resulting
in a charge to operations during the three and nine months ended December 31, 2007. In reviewing
this transaction, the original sales price was $12.5 million and with the settlement of $410,000
the adjusted sales price would have been $12.1 million, thus we realized 97% of the selling price,
and the resultant gain recorded during the year ended March 31, 2006 would have been reduced from
$2.5 million to $2.1 million.
Transaction costs
In early 2007, we indentified a potential acquisition opportunity and coupled with an equity
investment which would have increased our size to better enable us to compete in the enterprise
maintenance market. Due to changes in market and valuation issues, we determined not to pursue
this target in December 2007. As a result, we recorded a charge to operations of $458,000 for
transaction related costs.
Interest Expense
Interest expense for the three months ended December 31, 2007 was $155,000 compared to $171,000 for
the same period in 2006. For the nine months ended December 31, 2007 interest expense was $534,000
as compared to $492,000 for the same period ended December 31, 2006. The primary reason for the
decrease in interest expense during the three and nine months ended December 31, 2007 was lower
interest rates and decreased borrowings when compared to the same periods last year.
Income Tax Expense
For the three months ended December 31, 2007 we recorded income tax expense of $5,000 compared to
$97,000 for the same period in 2006. For the nine months ended December 31, 2007, we recorded
income tax expense of $30,000 compared to $197,000 for the nine months ended December 31, 2006. As
a result of recording a full valuation allowance on our deferred tax asset at March 31, 2006, our
income tax expense consists primarily of minimum state taxes. The Company has a net operating loss
carry forward of approximately $2.9 million which expires from 2019 through 2027.
Net (loss) income
For the three months ended December 31, 2007, the net loss was $1.8 million compared to net income
of $51,000 for the comparable period in 2006. For the nine months ended December 31, 2007, we
recorded a net loss of $1.5 million compared to net income of $157,000 for the nine months ended
December 31, 2006.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of December 31, 2007, we had approximately $1.2 million of cash on hand. Sources of our cash
for the nine months ended December 31, 2007 have been from operations and our revolving credit
facility which teminates on April 30, 2008.
We anticipate that our primary sources of liquidity will be cash generated from operating income or
alternative financing solutions, and cash on hand.
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, 2007 and Item 1A. Risk Factors contained
in Part II of this form 10-Q for a discussion of the factors that can negatively impact the amount
of cash we generate from our operations.
17
We are in process of exploring alternative sources of financing, including the sale of equity or
debt, sale-leaseback transactions and a new credit facility to replace our existing credit facility
with Provident Bank. We were unable to repay the auxiliary line of credit which matured on
December 31, 2007 and were in not in compliance with the terms of our revolving line of credit. As
discussed below, we entered into a Second Amendment and Waiver Agreement to the Loan Agreement.
The revolving line of credit and auxiliary revolver facility have a maturity date of April 30,
2008.
Our future financial performance will depend on our ability to obtain an alternative financing
source on terms acceptable to us to replace our existing credit facility, continue to reduce and
manage operating expenses, as well as our ability to grow revenues through obtaining new contracts.
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, 2007 and Item 1A. Risk Factors included in Part II of this Form 10-Q.
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. If we are unable to obtain a large enough new credit facility or
complete alternative financing arrangements such as sale of equity or debt or sale-leaseback
transaction, we do not believe that our earnings from operations will be adequate to satisfy our
current and planned operations for at least the next 12 months.
At December 31, 2007 and March 31, 2007, we had working capital of $20,000 and $1.3 million,
respectively. The current ratio was 1.0 at December 31, 2007 compared to 1.07 at March 31, 2007.
Capital expenditures for the nine months ended December 31, 2007 were $353,000 as compared to
$246,000 for the same period in 2006. We anticipate fiscal year 2008 technology requirements to
result in capital expenditures totaling approximately $400,000. We continue to sublease a portion
of our headquarters building which reduces our rent expense by approximately $400,000 annually.
On February 5, 2008, we and our subsidiaries entered into a Second Amendment and Waiver with
Provident Bank (the Bank), effective January 31, 2008 (the Amendment). The Amendment amends
and waives certain provisions of the Fourth Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement dated
as of June 29, 2007 (as amended by the First Amendment and Waiver dated November 13, 2007 and the
Amendment), among the same parties to the Amendment (Loan Agreement), related to the terms of the
line of credit and auxiliary revolver facility provided by the Bank.
As of December 31, 2007, $5.9 million was outstanding. Prior to the Amendment, amounts outstanding
under the Loan Agreement bore interest at Provident Banks prime rate plus one-quarter percent
(0.25%). Under the Amendment, amounts outstanding under the revolving line of credit will bear
interest at Provident Banks prime rate plus one percent (1%) and amounts outstanding under the
auxiliary revolver facility will bear interest at Provident Banks prime rate plus two percent
(2%). We 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%). This amount is payable on
the last day of each quarter until the Loan Agreement has been terminated. Additionally, we pay a
fee of $1,000 per month. Advances under the Loan Agreement are collateralized by a first priority
security interest on all of the Companys assets as defined in the Loan Agreement. The interest
rate at December 31, 2007 was 7.5%.
18
Under the Amendment, the auxiliary revolver facility maximum credit amount was reduced to $900,000
from $1.million and the maximum line of credit amount was reduced to $6.million from $7.5million.
Additionally, we cannot request any advance under the line of credit after April 28, 2008 and all
amounts outstanding under the line of
credit (including outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest thereon) are due and
payable in full on April 30, 2008 unless we have received an indefeasible capital infusion of not
less than $1.25 million in the form of either stockholders equity or subordinated debt acceptable
to the Bank (Capital Infusion) by April 15, 2008. If we have received such Capital Infusion, we
will be permitted to continue to borrow funds under the line of credit until July 29, 2008 and all
amounts outstanding under the line of credit would be due and payable in full on July 31, 2008.
Since January 30, 2008, as the result of a lease of equipment which was previously capitalized, the
Company received $500,000, which satisfies a portion of the $1,250,000 capital infusion described
above.
The Amendment also requires that we make payments of $25,000 each on the 15th day of
February, March and April 2008 which sums will be applied to the reduction of the principal amount
outstanding under the auxiliary revolver facility and will constitute permanent reductions to the
auxiliary revolver facility maximum credit amount. As of February 1, 2008, we cannot request any
advance under the auxiliary revolver facility and all amounts outstanding under the auxiliary
revolver facility (including outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest thereon) are due
and payable in full on April 30, 2008. If, however, we provide the Bank with evidence that we have
received the Capital Infusion by April 15, 2008, then, upon notice from the Bank, we will be
required to make payments of $25,000 each on the 15th day of May, June and July 2008 and
all amounts outstanding under the auxiliary revolver facility will become due and payable in full
on July 31, 2008.
As of January 30, 2008, there was outstanding principal of $5,088,450 and accrued and unpaid
interest of $30,880 on the line of credit and outstanding principal of $900,000 and accrued and
unpaid interest of $17,909 on the auxiliary revolver facility. Since January 30, 2008, we have
repaid $789,563 on the auxiliary revolver facility, which included the funds we received from the
settlement agreement. See Item 1. Legal Proceedings contained in Part II of this Form 10-Q.
We will not have sufficient cash to repay amounts due under the Loan Agreement and Amendment on
April 30, 2008 absent an equity or debt financing or entering into a new credit facility with
another financial institution or another financing transaction, which is sufficient to repay the
amount outstanding to the Bank. We are exploring a variety of alternative financing options,
including a new credit facility to replace the facility currently provided by the Bank,
sale-leaseback transactions and the sale of debt or equity to satisfy the Capital Infusion
requirements set forth in the Amendment. There can be no assurances that we will be able to
complete an equity or debt financing, enter into a new large enough credit facility on terms that
are favorable to us or at all or a sale-leaseback transaction. Our failure to complete a new
financing, enter into a new credit facility or complete a sale-leaseback transaction on unfavorable
terms to us would have a material adverse effect on our operations, financial condition, results of
operations and its ability to continue as a going concern. If we are unable to complete a Capital
Infusion by April 15, 2008, or obtain a new credit facility, we will be unable to meet our debt
obligations to the Bank. If we are unable to pay our obligations to the Bank when they become due,
we may be forced to restrict our operations and the Bank has the right, among other things, to
declare an event of default which would enable the Bank to foreclose on our assets securing the
Loan Agreement.
The Loan Agreement contains representations, warranties and covenants that are customary in
connection with a transaction of this type. The Loan 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 its discretion against our obligations
owed to Provident Bank, (ii) notifying Provident Bank in writing of any cancellation of a contract
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 six 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 the entry by us or our subsidiaries
into a merger or consolidation or sell or lease substantially all of our assets or the assets of
our subsidiaries, (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, and (vi) obtaining written consent from Provident Bank prior to
entering into or amending any contract with IBM or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates concerning
work performed for certain entities. The Loan Agreement also contains certain financial
covenants which we are required to maintain including, but not limited to, total liabilities to net
worth ratio of not greater than 4.0:1, and a debt service coverage equal to or greater than 1.25:1,
as more fully described in Loan Agreement.
19
The Amendment also amended certain financial covenants contained in the Loan Agreement as follows:
(i) We shall at all times maintain a minimum Tangible Net Worth plus Subordinated Debt
of not less than $1,000,000 as of March 31, 2008.
(ii) We fail to maintain a Current Ratio equal to or greater than 1.0 as of March 31,
2008.
For purposes of covenant measurements, any capital infusion or issuance of subordinated debt shall
be deemed to have occurred after March 31, 2008.
In connection with the Amendment, the Bank also waived our non-compliance with certain financial
and other covenants under the Loan Agreement including: (a) our failing to maintain a minimum
tangible net worth plus subordinated debt of not less than $4,000,000 as of December 31, 2007; (b)
our failing to maintain a ratio of total liabilities less subordinated debt to tangible net worth
plus subordinated debt of not greater than 4.0:1 as of December 31, 2007; (c) our failing to
maintain a current ratio equal to or greater than 1.4:1 as of December 31, 2007; and (d) our
failing to pay the principal, interest and late charges owed under the auxiliary revolver facility
at the December 31, 2007 maturity thereof. The failure to comply with these financial and other
covenants constituted an event of default under the Loan Agreement.
There can be no assurances we will be able to comply with the financial covenants contained in the
Loan Agreement and Amendment on March 31, 2008 or thereafter. In the future, we may not be
successful in obtaining a waiver of non-compliance with these financial covenants. If we are
unable to comply with the financial covenants, absent a waiver, it will be in default of the Loan
Agreement and Amendment and the Bank can take any of the actions discussed above.
Events of default, include, but are not limited to: (i) a determination by Provident Bank that in
its discretion that the financial condition of the Company or any person or entity that generally
is now or hereafter liable, directly, contingently or otherwise obligated to pay Provident Bank
under the Loan agreement (Other Obligor) is unsatisfactory, (ii) we or an Other Obligor becomes
insolvent or an involuntary petition for bankruptcy filed against us or it, (iii) a default under
any indebtedness by us or any Other Obligor, and (iv) a change in more than 25% of the ownership of
us without the prior written consent of Provident Bank.
We are required to pay the Bank an amendment fee of $34,500. Half of such amount was due and paid
at signing of the Amendment and the other half is due by March 31, 2008. If, however, we fully
repay amounts outstanding under the revolving line of credit and the auxiliary revolver facility by
March 31, 2008, no additional amendment fee will be due on March 31, 2008.
If we were to obtain a significant new contract or make contract modifications, we would 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 Loan 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.
Our subordinated debt agreements with Nancy Scurlock and the Arch C. Scurlock Childrens Trust,
which are referred to as affiliates, totaled $1.0 million at December 31, 2007. 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, 2007, each of the affiliates referred to above, held $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 $202,000 at December 31, 2007.
20
If any act of default occurs, the principal and interest due under the 8% promissory notes issued
under the subordinated debt agreement will be due and payable immediately without any action on
behalf of the note holders and if not cured, could trigger cross default provisions under our loan
agreement with Provident Bank. If we do not make a payment of any installment of interest or
principal when it becomes due and payable, we are in default. If we breach or default in the
performance of any covenants contained in the notes and continuance of such breach or default for a
period of 30
days after the notice to us by the note holders or breach or default in any of the terms of
borrowings by us constituting superior indebtedness, unless waived in writing by the holder of such
superior indebtedness within the period provided in such indebtedness not to exceed 30 days, we
would be in default on the 8% promissory notes.
Our 8% promissory notes mature on July 1, 2009.
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 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 December 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No. 141 (revised
2007), Business Combinations (SFAS No. 141R). SFAS No. 141R establishes principles and
requirements for how an acquirer recognizes and measures in its financial statements the
identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree
and the goodwill acquired. SFAS No. 141R also establishes disclosure requirements to enable the
evaluation of the nature and financial effects of the business combination. SFAS No. 141R is
effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and will be adopted by the Company in
the first quarter of fiscal 2010. The Company does not believe the adoption of SFAS No. 141R will
have a material impact on its consolidated results of operations and financial condition.
In February 2007, FASB issued FASB Statement No. 159 (SFAS No. 159), The Fair Value Option for
Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. SFAS No. 159 gives entities the option to report most
financial assets and liabilities at fair value, with changes in fair value recorded in earnings.
This statement, which is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, is not
expected to have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations.
In September 2006, FASB issued FASB Statement No. 157 (SFAS No. 157), Fair Value Measurements.
SFAS No. 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.
21
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, 2007. 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, 2007 contains descriptions of funded debt and should be read in conjunction with the table
below.

At December 31, 2007, we had approximately $7.9 million of debt outstanding of which $1.1 million
bore 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 current and future
operations.
Effective January 31, 2008 as a result if our execution of the Amendment and Waiver Agreement to
the Fourth Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement the maximum availability of our
revolving line of credit was reduced to $6.0 million with interest at the banks prime rate of
interest plus 1%. The terms of our auxiliary line of credit were modified requiring payments of
$25,000 per month beginning February 15, 2008 with interest at the banks prime rate of interest
plus 2%. .
We were unable to repay the auxiliary line of credit which matured on December 31, 2007 and
were not in compliance with the terms of our revolving line of credit. On January 31, 2008 we
entered into a Second Amendment and Waiver Agreement to the Fourth Amended and Restated Loan and
Security Agreement. The revolving line of credit and auxiliary line of credit have a maturity date
of April 30, 2008. The balance of the auxiliary line of credit at February 6, 2008 was $110,437.
22
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 4T. 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, 2007 that have
materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Companys internal control
over financial reporting (Internal Controls Evaluation).
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. The Companys CEO and CFO concluded that the Companys disclosure controls and
procedures were effective as of December 31, 2007 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
On June 30, 2005, the Company simultaneously entered into and closed on an asset purchase agreement
(the Agreement) with INDUS Corporation (Indus), pursuant to which we sold substantially all of
the assets and certain liabilities of our secure network business. The purchase price was
approximately $12.5 million, subject to adjustments as provided in the Agreement, based on the net
assets of the business on the closing date. The Agreement also provided that $3.0 million of the
purchase price was held in escrow (the Escrow). The terms of the Agreement, including the Escrow,
are as set forth in the Form 8-K filed with the SEC on July 1, 2005, as amended on Form 8-K/A, on
July 7, 2005.
Pursuant to the Escrow Agreement, on July 8, 2005, the Company received $1,000,000 and on January
26, 2006, it received $1,375,000. On or about December 31, 2006, an additional $625,000, which was
being held in escrow as security for our indemnification obligations under the Agreement, was to be
disbursed to the Company. However, on December 28, 2006, the Company 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 of approximately $71,000, should be
disbursed to Indus. The total amount of $696,000 held in escrow was recorded as restricted cash on
the accompanying financial statements. The Company delivered a Response Notice to the escrow agent
and Indus disputing the claims of Indus set forth in its Notice of Claim. On June 26, 2007 the
Company filed a complaint against Indus in the Virginia Circuit Court requesting a declaratory
judgment, and other relief, including a demand that Indus withdraw its claim and disburse the funds
in escrow in order to resolve the matter. On August 1, 2007, Indus answered the Companys
complaint and instituted a counterclaim. In the counterclaim, Indus is among other things, a
declaratory judgment and compensatory damages in an amount up to $1,000,000, costs and other
appropriate relief for breach of contract. The Company filed a motion to dismiss a portion of the
claim, which it won, and on October 19, 2007, Indus amended its counter claim. The Company filed a
motion to dismiss a portion of the amended claim, which it won on December 28, 2007.
On February 4, 2008, the Company entered into a settlement and release agreement (the Settlement
Agreement), with Indus. Under the Settlement Agreement, the Company and Indus agreed to settle
their claims against one another as set forth in the lawsuits.
Pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, Indus and the Company agreed to release each other from all
claims, damages, suits, losses, actions, demands, judgments, awards, liabilities and causes of
action related to the Asset Purchase Agreement dated June 30, 2005, by and among the Company and
Indus. Under the Settlement Agreement, Indus is to receive $410,000 from the escrow fund and the
Company is to receive $215,000 in principal plus any interest earned since the date of the initial
deposit in the escrow fund and remaining in the escrow fund at the time of disbursement and any
remaining funds contained in the escrow fund less any costs, fees or expenses due and payable to
the escrow agent. All amounts due to the Company as a result of this settlement were paid to
Provident Bank to partially repay the Companys outstanding balance on its auxiliary revolver
facility.
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, 2007, 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
other than those risks described below. The risks described below and 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.
24
We will not have sufficient cash to repay amounts due under the loan agreement on April 30, 2008
absent an equity or debt financing or entering into a new credit facility with another financial
institution or another financing transaction. If we are unsuccessful in completing a new financing
or entering into a new credit facility on favorable terms to us or at all, our financial condition
and operations will be materially adversely affected.
We are exploring a variety of alternative financing options, including a new credit facility to
replace the facility currently provided by Provident Bank, sale-leaseback transactions and the sale
of debt or equity to satisfy the capital infusion requirements set forth in the amendment to the
loan agreement. There can be no assurances that we will be able to complete an equity or debt
financing or enter into a new credit facility on terms that are favorable to us or at all. If we
are unable to complete a Capital Infusion by April 15, 2008, or obtain a new credit facility, we
will be unable to meet our debt obligations to the Bank. If we cannot complete a new financing or
enter into a new credit facility or complete a financing or close on a new credit facility on
favorable terms to us, we may have to significantly curtail our operations, our ability to continue
as a going concern may be jeopardized or we may be forced into a bankruptcy proceeding by the bank.
If we fail to meet our financial and other covenants under our loan agreement with Provident Bank,
absent a waiver, we will be in default of the loan agreement and Provident Bank can take actions
that would adversely affect our business.
Since March 31, 2007, we have been out of compliance with certain financial and other covenants
contained in the loan agreement with Provident Bank and we have obtained a waiver from Provident
Bank for our noncompliance. There can be no assurances that we will be able to maintain compliance
with the financial and other covenants in our loan agreement. In the event we are unable to comply
with these covenants during future periods, it is uncertain whether Provident Bank will continue to
grant waivers for our non-compliance. As a result of recent amendments to our loan agreement, if
there is an event of default by us under the loan agreement, we fail to comply with our covenant
regarding the cash collateral account or we fail to make any payment under the loan agreement or
amendment when due, the Provident Bank has the option to, among other things, accelerate any and
all of our obligations under the loan agreement, foreclose on our assets securing the loan
agreement, and any of these actions would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial
condition and results of operations.
