Effective May 1, 2007, the Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainties in Income Taxes, (“FIN 48”). FIN 48 prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for recognizing tax return positions in the financial statements as those which are “more likely than not” to be sustained upon examination by the taxing authority. FIN 48 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting for income tax uncertainties in interim periods and the level of disclosures associated with any recorded income tax uncertainties. The Company adopted FIN 48 on May 1, 2007, and the adoption of FIN 48 did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.
On May 1, 2006, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (“SFAS”) 123(R), Share-Based Payment (revised 2004). SFAS 123(R) requires that all equity awards to employees be expensed by the Company over the requisite service period. The Company adopted this standard using the modified prospective method. Under this method, the Company records compensation expense for all awards it granted after the date it adopted the standard.
The Company has three outstanding types of equity-based incentive compensation instruments in effect with its employees, non-employee directors, and selected outside consultants: stock options, stock appreciation rights and restricted stock.
For the third quarter and the first nine months ended January 31, 2008, the Company’s net earnings includes $35,749 and $97,210, respectively, of total equity-based compensation expense, and $13,585 and $36,940, respectively, of related income tax benefits. All of these expenses were included in selling,

The Company estimates the fair value of each SARs grant on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The risk free interest rate utilized in the Black-Scholes calculation is the interest rate on the U.S. Treasury Bill having the same maturity as the expected life of the Company’s SARs awards.

Table of Contents

The expected life of the SARs granted was determined by the estimated holding period of the SARs award. The expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of the Company’s stock over the preceding five-year period using the month-end closing stock price.
The SARs granted in the first nine months of fiscal 2008 had the following weighted average assumptions and fair value:
         
Expected life (years)     5  
Dividend yield     3.04 %
Expected stock price volatility     37.58 %
Risk free interest rate     4.42 %
Fair value per SAR granted   $ 1.13  
The Company’s net earnings for the third quarter and the first nine months ended January 31, 2008, includes $32,397 and $89,053, respectively, of equity-based compensation expenses, and income tax benefits of $12,311 and $33,840, respectively, related to the vesting of SARs. All of these expenses were included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of operations for all periods.
The Company’s net earnings for the third quarter and the first nine months ended January 31, 2007, includes $21,149 and $42,316, respectively, of equity-based compensation expenses related to the vesting of SARs. Related income tax benefits were $8,037 and $16,080 for the third quarter and the first nine months ended January 31, 2007, respectively. All of these expenses were included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of operations for all periods.

NOTE 4. RECEIVABLES
All net receivables are expected to be collected within one year.
NOTE 5. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
Sales of Income-Producing Properties
The Company is in the business of creating long-term value by periodically realizing gains through the sale of existing real estate assets, and then redeploying its capital by reinvesting the proceeds from such sales. Effective as of fiscal 2003, the Company adopted SFAS 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, which requires, among other things, that the operating results of certain income-producing assets, sold subsequent to April 30, 2002, be included in discontinued operations in the statements of operations for all periods presented. The Company classifies an asset as held for sale when the asset is under a binding sales contract with minimal contingencies, and the buyer is materially at risk if the buyer fails to complete the transaction. However, each potential transaction is evaluated based on its separate facts and circumstances. Pursuant to this standard, as of January 31, 2008, the Company had no income-producing properties that were classified as held for sale.
On December 13, 2007, the Company sold its owned office park located in Marietta, Georgia, and recognized a pre-tax gain on the sale of approximately $2.085 million. On July 31, 2007, the Company sold its leasehold interest in the land and its owned shopping center building located in Columbus, Georgia, and its owned shopping center located in Orange Park, Florida, and recognized a pre-tax gain on the sales of approximately $1.9 million. On November 1, 2006, the Company sold its leasehold interest in the land and its owned shopping center located in Morton, Illinois, and recognized a pre-tax gain on the sale of approximately $3.48 million. In accordance with SFAS 144, the Company’s historical financial statements have been prepared with the results of operations and cash flows of these sold properties shown as discontinued operations, with the exception of the revenues, backlog, costs and expenses, and cash flows associated with the shopping center located in Orange Park, Florida, for the period between May 1, 2006, and February 12, 2007, which have not been restated as discontinued operations and are still included in continuing operations; the Company acquired the fee interest in the

shopping center on February 12, 2007, and as a result, the property was re-classified as an Owned Shopping Center rather than a Leaseback Shopping Center. The reader should keep this in mind when analyzing the annual results of operations, backlog and cash flows of the Real Estate Segment. All historical statements have been restated in accordance with SFAS 144. Summarized financial information for discontinued operations for the third quarter and the first nine-month periods ended January 31, 2008, and January 31, 2007, respectively, is as follows:

(1)   The Company is in the business of creating long-term value by periodically realizing gains through the sale of income-producing properties and the sale of real estate held for future development or sale, and therefore, in this presentation the Real Estate Segment’s net earnings includes earnings from discontinued operations, pursuant to SFAS 144, that resulted from the gain on the sales of certain income-producing properties, and earnings included in continuing operations that resulted from the gain on sale of other real estate assets.
The following is a reconciliation of the segment revenues shown in the table above to consolidated revenues shown on the statements of operations for the third quarter and the first nine-month periods ended January 31, 2008, and January 31, 2007, respectively:

NOTE 7. EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE
Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net earnings (loss) by the weighted average shares outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed giving effect to dilutive stock equivalents resulting from outstanding stock options, stock warrants and stock appreciation rights. Because the Company had a loss from continuing operations for all periods presented, all stock equivalents were antidilutive during these periods, and therefore, are excluded when determining the diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding. If the Company had earnings from continuing operations in the periods presented, the dilutive effect on the number of common shares for the third quarter of fiscal 2008 and fiscal 2007 would have been 276,252 and 9,438 shares, respectively, and for the first nine months of fiscal 2008 and fiscal 2007, the dilutive effect on the number of common shares would have been 232,591 and 837 shares, respectively.

The Company performed the annual impairment analysis of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets for the Building Performance Expert Segment during the quarter as required by SFAS 142. As part of the impairment test, the Company used an income approach under a discounted cash flow model to determine its measure of fair value. Additionally, the Company performed a sensitivity analysis assuming the discount rate was higher and the growth rate was lower than the assumptions used in the initial analysis. The annual analysis resulted in a determination of no impairment for fiscal 2008. As of January 31, 2008, the Company does not believe that any of its goodwill or other intangible assets is impaired.
NOTE 9. DISPOSITIONS
On July 31, 2007, the Company sold: its leasehold interest in a shopping center located in Jacksonville, Florida; its leasehold interest in the land and its owned shopping center building located in Columbus, Georgia; and its owned shopping center located in Orange Park, Florida; for a total combined sales price of $6.797 million, resulting in a pre-tax gain on the sales of approximately $3.776 million. After selling expenses, these sales generated net cash proceeds of approximately $6.4 million. In addition, the Company purchased its minority partners’ interests in the Columbus, Georgia, shopping center by utilizing two notes payable totaling approximately $400,000. In December 2007, the Company paid off one of the notes of approximately $160,000 and the other note is recorded on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as current maturities of mortgage notes and long-term debt payable. In accordance with SFAS 144, the sale of the Company’s leasehold interest in the shopping center located in Jacksonville, Florida, is included in rental income on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. The sale of the Company’s leasehold interest in the land and its owned shopping center building located in Columbus, Georgia, and the sale of the Company’s owned shopping center located in Orange Park, Florida, are recorded in discontinued operations in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. The Company’s federal tax liability is approximately $1.5 million related to the sales, which will be offset with the Company’s net operating loss carry-forwards for tax purposes.
On December 13, 2007, the Company sold its owned office park located in Marietta, Georgia, for a sales price of $10.3 million, resulting in a pre-tax gain on the sale of approximately $2.085 million. After selling expenses and repayment of the mortgage loan (see Note 10 — Mortgage Notes Payable) and associated costs, the sale generated cash proceeds of approximately $3.4 million. The Company may use the net proceeds from this sale to acquire an income-producing property, which would qualify the sale and proposed acquisition under Internal Revenue Code Section 1031 for federal income tax deferral, and has placed the proceeds with a qualified third party intermediary in connection therewith. There can be no assurance, however, that the Company will be able to successfully complete such acquisition, in which event the proceeds would be released from the intermediary to the Company, and the Company’s federal tax liability would be approximately $1.8 million of which the majority would be offset by the Company’s net operating loss carry-forwards for tax purposes.
NOTE 10. MORTGAGE NOTES PAYABLE
On June 1, 2007, the Company replaced its interim bank loan of $2.5 million used in the acquisition of its office building located in Newnan, Georgia, with a permanent mortgage in the amount of $3.2 million. The permanent mortgage bears interest at 5.96%, with interest-only payments required for the first twelve months of the mortgage term, after which the mortgage will be amortized using a 30-year amortization schedule until it matures on June 8, 2017.
On August 1, 2007, the Company refinanced its former owned office park located in Marietta, Georgia, with a new mortgage in the amount of $6.65 million. The new mortgage bore interest at the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) +1.75%, with monthly principal and interest payments required, and was

scheduled to be amortized using a 20-year amortization schedule until it matured on July 1, 2010. However, this mortgage was paid off in full on December 13, 2007, in conjunction with the sale of the office park. See Note 9 — Dispositions.
NOTE 11. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
The Company is subject to legal proceedings and other claims that arise in the ordinary course of business. While the resolution of these matters cannot be predicted with certainty, the Company believes that the final outcome of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations. See Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended April 30, 2007.
NOTE 12. SUBSEQUENT EVENT
On February 1, 2008, the Company entered into a contract to sell approximately 1.826 acres of the Company’s land located in Oakwood, Georgia. The contract specifies a closing date in fiscal 2008. The sale is subject to customary conditions, and there can be no assurance that the contract will close.

NOTES TO CHART A
(1)   Building Performance Expert (“BPE”) Segment revenues decreased by approximately $550,000, or 15%, for the third quarter of fiscal 2008, compared to the same period in fiscal 2007, primarily due to:

15


Table of Contents

  (a)   a net decrease in revenues of approximately $847,000, in infrastructure upgrades and energy savings projects revenues, largely as a result of unexpected delays in scheduled project revenues from retail customers partially offset by an increase in projects revenues from industrial and hospitality customers;
 
  this net decrease is partially offset by:
 
  (b)   an increase of approximately $142,000 in energy management services revenues; and
 
  (c)   an increase of approximately $155,000 in building productivity products and services revenues.
    BPE Segment revenues increased by approximately $2,350,000, or 24%, for the first nine months of fiscal 2008, compared to the same period in fiscal 2007, primarily due to:

(2)   Real Estate Segment revenues decreased by approximately $184,000, or 17%, for the third quarter of fiscal 2008, compared to the same period in fiscal 2007, primarily due to:
  (a)   a decrease in leaseback income of approximately $151,000 as a result of the sale of the Company’s leaseback shopping center located in Jacksonville, Florida, which was sold in July 2007, and the sale of the Company’s leaseback shopping center located in Richfield, Minnesota, which was sold in March 2007; and
 
  (b)   a decrease in leaseback income of approximately $66,000 as a result of the sale of the Company’s owned shopping center located in Orange Park, Florida, which was sold in July 2007 (see Note 5 to the consolidated financial statements);
 
  partially offset by:
 
  (c)   an increase in rental revenues of approximately $104,000 from the Company’s owned office building located in Newnan, Georgia, which was acquired in March 2007.
    Real Estate Segment revenues increased by approximately $1,295,000, or 43%, for the first nine months of fiscal 2008, compared to the same period of fiscal 2007, primarily due to:
  (a)   one-time revenues of approximately $1,553,000 related to the sale of the Company’s leaseback shopping center located in Jacksonville, Florida, in July 2007; and
 
  (b)   an increase in rental revenues of approximately $412,000 from the Company’s owned shopping center located in Smyrna, Tennessee, which was acquired in July 2006, and from the Company’s owned office building located in Newnan, Georgia, which was acquired in March 2007;

(1)   BPE backlog increased by approximately $462,000 or 8%, primarily due to:
  (a)   an increase of approximately $784,000 in energy management services; and
 
  (b)   an increase of approximately $263,000 in building productivity products and services;
 
  partially offset by:
 
  (c)   a decrease of approximately $585,000 in infrastructure upgrade and energy savings projects that is primarily related to customer delays.
    The Company estimates that the BPE backlog at January 31, 2008, will be recognized prior to January 31, 2009, with the exception of approximately $839,000 primarily from energy management services from contracts that extend longer than one year.
 
    Backlog includes some contracts that can be cancelled with less than one year’s notice, and assumes cancellation provisions will not be invoked. The amount of such cancelled contracts included in the prior year’s Backlog was approximately $261,000, or 2.2%.
 
(2)   The decrease in Real Estate backlog of approximately $1,159,000, or 28%, was primarily due to:
  (a)   the inclusion in the fiscal 2007 backlog of rental revenues of approximately $603,000 related to the Company’s former leaseback shopping centers located in Jacksonville, Florida, and Richfield, Minnesota, as both properties were both subsequently sold;
 
  (b)   the inclusion in fiscal 2007 backlog of rental revenues of approximately $264,000 related to the Company’s former leaseback interest in the shopping center located in Orange Park, Florida, which revenues were not reclassified to discontinued operations upon the sale of the shopping center (see Note 5 to the consolidated financial statements); and
 
  (c)   lower rental revenues of approximately $730,000 related to the expiration in January 2008 of a third-party lease at the Company’s headquarters building in Atlanta, Georgia;
 
  partially offset by:
 
  (d)   higher rental revenues of approximately $380,000 related to the Company’s office building located in Newnan, Georgia, which was acquired in March 2007; and
 
  (e)   higher rental revenues of approximately $58,000 related to successful leasing activities at other properties.
(3)   Represents rental income at the Company’s headquarters building to be paid to the Real Estate Segment over the next twelve months by the Parent Company and the BPE Segment.

NOTES TO CHART C
(1)   BPE SG&A expenses as a percentage of revenues for the third quarter of fiscal 2008, compared to the same period of fiscal 2007, were affected by the lower volume of revenues presented in Chart A primarily the result of unexpected customer delays.
 
    BPE SG&A expenses as a percentage of revenues decreased by 3% for the first nine months of fiscal 2008, compared to the same period of fiscal 2007, primarily because the increase in revenues did not cause a proportional increase in SG&A expenses.
 
    On a dollar basis, BPE SG&A expenses for the first nine months of fiscal 2008 increased by approximately $483,000, or 14%, compared to the same period of fiscal 2007, primarily due to higher sales and marketing expenses.
 
(2)   On a dollar basis, Real Estate SG&A expenses in the third quarter of fiscal 2008 increased by approximately $25,000, or 13%, compared to the same period of fiscal 2007, primarily due to an increase in costs related to the potential sale of a portion of the Company’s land located in Oakwood, Georgia.
 
    On a dollar basis, Real Estate SG&A expenses in the first nine months of fiscal 2008 decreased by $36,000, or 6%, compared to the same period of fiscal 2007, primarily for legal and other professional fees related to transaction activity.
 
(3)   On a dollar basis and as a percentage of revenues, Parent SG&A expenses decreased by approximately $275,000, or 25%, in the third quarter of fiscal 2008, compared to the same period of fiscal 2007, primarily due to:
  (a)   a decrease in incentive compensation accruals of approximately $219,000, pursuant to the Company’s cash incentive compensation plan; and
 
  (b)   a decrease in consulting fees of approximately $83,000.
    On a dollar basis and as a percentage of revenues, Parent SG&A expenses decreased by approximately $459,000, or 16%, in the first nine months of fiscal 2008, compared to the same period of fiscal 2007, primarily due to:
  (a)   a decrease in incentive compensation accruals of approximately $239,000, pursuant to the Company’s cash incentive compensation plan; and
 
  (b)   a decrease in consulting fees of approximately $259,000.
Gain on sale of asset
On August 29, 2006, the Company sold its former manufacturing and warehouse facility located in downtown Atlanta, Georgia, for a sale price of $2,050,000, resulting in a pre-tax gain on the sale of approximately $1,545,000. After selling expenses, the sale generated cash proceeds of approximately $1,867,000. This sale is recorded in continuing operations on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations as gain on sale of real estate, net of the costs of sale.

Liquidity and capital resources
Between April 30, 2007, and January 31, 2008, working capital increased by approximately $4,999,000.
Operating activities used cash of approximately $1,331,000, primarily due to:
  (a)   a net increase in BPE Segment accounts receivable and costs and earnings in excess of billings of approximately $2,037,000, primarily due to the higher level of revenues, the timing of billings, and the receipt of payments;
 
  partially offset by:
 
  (b)   a decrease in other current assets of approximately $283,000, primarily related to the payment of the cash surrender value of a life insurance policy of a former executive officer of the Company; and
 
  (c)   a net increase in BPE trade accounts payable, accrued expenses, other liabilities and billings in excess of costs and earnings of approximately $252,000, due to the timing and submission of payments.
Investing activities used cash of approximately $7,358,000, primarily due to:
  (a)   the deposit with a qualified intermediary of cash proceeds of approximately $3,436,000 from the sale described in Note 9 to the consolidated financial statements in order to qualify the sale for potential federal income tax deferral under Internal Revenue Code Section 1031;
 
  (b)   the purchase of an available-for-sale security of approximately $2,900,000, which was subsequently sold and converted to cash and cash equivalents;

  (a)   scheduled principal payments on mortgage notes and other long-term mortgages of approximately $480,000;
 
  (b)   costs of approximately $57,000 related to the refinancing of long-term mortgages in the Real Estate Segment; and
 
  (c)   payments of regular quarterly cash dividends to shareholders of approximately $382,000;
 
  offset by:
 
  (d)   net proceeds of approximately $700,000 from the permanent mortgage loan of $3,200,000 on the Company’s office building located in Newnan, Georgia, which replaced the interim loan of $2,500,000; and
 
  (e)   proceeds of $51,000 from the exercise of stock options.

Table of Contents

Discontinued operations provided cash of approximately $8,748,000, primarily from the sales of the Company’s leasehold interest in the land and its owned shopping center building located in Columbus, Georgia; the sale of the Company’s owned shopping center located in Orange Park, Florida; and the sale of the Company’s owned office park located in Marietta, Georgia (see Note 9 — Dispositions).
In March 2008, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to 50,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock in the twelve-month period beginning March 8, 2008, and ending on March 7, 2009. Any such purchases, if made, could be made in the open market at prevailing prices or in privately negotiated transactions. The Company has not repurchased any shares in the period from May 1, 2007, and January 31, 2008.
The Company anticipates that its existing cash balances, equity, potential proceeds from sales of real estate, potential cash flows provided by financing or refinancing of debt obligations, potential cash flows from the exercise of stock options, and cash flows generated from operations will, for the foreseeable future, provide adequate liquidity and financial flexibility to meet the Company’s needs to fund working capital, capital expenditures, debt service, and investment activities.
Critical Accounting Policies
A critical accounting policy is one which is both important to the portrayal of the Company’s financial position and results of operations, and requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions in certain circumstances that affect amounts reported in the accompanying consolidated financial statements and related notes. In preparing these financial statements, the Company has made its best estimates and used its best judgments regarding certain amounts included in the financial statements, giving due consideration to materiality. The application of these accounting policies involves the exercise of judgment and the use of assumptions regarding future uncertainties, and as a result, actual results could differ from those estimates. Management believes that the Company’s most critical accounting policies include:
Revenue Recognition
Revenues derived from implementation, training, support and base service license fees from customers accessing the Company’s proprietary building productivity software solutions on an application service provider (ASP) basis follow the provisions of Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) 104, “Revenue Recognition” and Emerging Issues Task Force, or EITF, Issue No. 00-21, “Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables.” For these sources of revenues, the Company recognizes revenue when all of the following conditions are met: there is persuasive evidence of an arrangement; service has been provided to the customer; the collection of fees is probable; and the amount of fees to be paid by the customer is fixed and determinable. The Company’s license arrangements do not include general rights of return. Revenues are recognized ratably over the contract terms beginning on the commencement date of each contract. Amounts that have been invoiced are recorded in accounts receivable and in revenue or deferred revenue, depending on the timing of when the revenue recognition criteria have been met. Additionally, the Company defers such direct costs and amortizes them over the same time period as the revenue is recognized.
Energy management and consulting services are accounted for separately and are recognized as the services are rendered in accordance with SAB 104. Productivity products are recognized when sold.
Energy savings and infrastructure upgrade projects revenues are reported on the percentage-of-completion method, using costs incurred to date in relation to the estimated total costs of the contracts to measure the stage of completion. Original contract prices are adjusted for change orders in the amounts

22


Table of Contents

that are reasonably estimated based on the Company’s historical experience. The cumulative effects of changes in estimated total contract costs and revenues (change orders) are recorded in the period in which the facts requiring such revisions become known, and are accounted for using the percentage-of-completion method. At the time it is determined that a contract is expected to result in a loss, the entire estimated loss is recorded.
The Company leases space in its income-producing properties to tenants and recognizes minimum base rentals as revenue on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The lease term usually begins when the tenant takes possession of, or controls the physical use of, the leased asset. Generally, this occurs on the lease commencement date. In determining what constitutes the leased asset, the Company evaluates whether the Company or the tenant is the owner of the improvements. If the Company is the owner of the improvements, then the leased asset is the finished space. In such instances, revenue recognition begins when the tenant takes possession of the finished space, typically when the improvements are substantially complete. If the Company determines that the improvements belong to the tenant, then the leased asset is the unimproved space, and any improvement allowances funded by the Company under the lease are treated as lease incentives that reduce the revenue recognized over the term of the lease. In these circumstances, the Company begins revenue recognition when the tenant takes possession of the unimproved space. The Company considers a number of different factors in order to determine whether the Company or the tenant owns the improvements. These factors include: (1) whether the lease stipulates the terms and conditions of how an improvement allowance may be spent; (2) whether the tenant or the Company retains legal title to the improvements; (3) the uniqueness of the improvements; (4) the expected economic life of the improvements relative to the length of the lease; and (5) who constructs or directs the construction of the improvements. The determination of who owns the improvements is subject to significant judgment. In making the determination, the Company considers all of the above factors; however, no one factor is determinative in reaching a conclusion. Certain leases may also require tenants to pay additional rental amounts as partial reimbursements for their share of property operating and common area expenses, real estate taxes, and insurance, which are recognized when earned. In addition, certain leases require retail tenants to pay incremental rental amounts, which are contingent upon their store sales. These percentage rents are recognized only if and when earned and are not recognized on a straight-line basis.
Revenue from the sale of real estate assets is recognized when all of the following has occurred: (a) the property is transferred from the Company to the buyer; (b) the buyer’s initial and continuing investment is adequate to demonstrate a commitment to pay for the property; and (c) the buyer has assumed all future ownership risks of the property. Costs of sales related to real estate assets are based on the specific property sold. If a portion or unit of a property is sold, a proportionate share of the total cost of the development or acquisition is charged to cost of sales.
Income-Producing Properties and Property and Equipment
Income-producing properties are stated at historical cost and are depreciated for financial reporting purposes using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Significant additions that extend asset lives are capitalized and are depreciated over their respective estimated useful lives. Normal maintenance and repair costs are expensed as incurred. Interest and other carrying costs related to real estate assets under active development are capitalized. Other costs of development and construction of real estate assets are also capitalized. Capitalization of interest and other carrying costs is discontinued when a project is substantially completed or if active development ceases. The Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.

Property and equipment are recorded at historical cost and are depreciated for financial reporting purposes using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets.
Valuation of Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
Goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives are reviewed for impairment on an annual basis or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying basis of an asset may not be recoverable. The recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying basis of the asset to the future net discounted cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If an asset is determined to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is determined by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the asset’s estimated fair value. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of their carrying basis or their estimated fair value less the estimated costs to sell. The most significant assumptions in the impairment analysis are estimated future revenue growth, estimated future profit margins and discount rate. The Company estimates future revenue growth by utilizing several factors, which include revenue currently in backlog, commitments from long standing customers, targeted revenue from qualified prospects, and revenues expected to be generated from new sales or marketing initiatives. The discount rate is determined by an average cost of the Company’s equity and debt. The Company performed the annual impairment analysis of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets for the Building Performance Expert Segment during the quarter as required by SFAS 142. As part of the impairment test, the Company used an income approach under a discounted cash flow model to determine its measure of fair value. Additionally, the Company performed a sensitivity analysis assuming the discount rate was higher and the growth rate was lower than the assumptions used in the initial analysis. The annual analysis resulted in a determination of no impairment for fiscal 2008. As of January 31, 2008, the Company does not believe that any of its goodwill or other intangible assets is impaired.
Income Taxes
Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to be applied to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
Discontinued Operations
The Company adopted SFAS 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, effective in fiscal 2003, which requires, among other things, that the gains and losses from the disposition of certain income-producing real estate assets and associated liabilities, operating results, and cash flows be reflected as discontinued operations in the financial statements for all periods presented. Although net earnings are not affected, the Company has reclassified results that were previously included in continuing operations as discontinued operations for qualifying dispositions under SFAS 144.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
There have been no material changes in the Company’s market risk since April 30, 2007. Refer to the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2007, for detailed disclosures about quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Management has evaluated the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as defined by Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, as of the end of the period covered by this report. This evaluation was carried out with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer. No system of controls, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide absolute assurance that the objectives of the system of controls are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that the system of controls has operated effectively in all cases. The Company’s disclosure controls and procedures, however, are designed to provide a reasonable assurance that the objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures are met.
Based on management’s evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective, as of the end of the period covered by this report, to provide reasonable assurance that the objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures were met.
There was no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this quarterly report on Form 10-Q that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
In addition to the other information set forth in this report, the reader should carefully consider the factors discussed in Part I, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2007, which could materially affect the business, financial condition or future operating results of the Company. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to the Company, or that the Company currently deems to be immaterial, also could materially affect the Company’s business, financial condition, and/or operating results.
ITEM 5. OTHER INFORMATION
On December 13, 2007, the Company sold its owned office park located in Marietta, Georgia, for a sales price of $10.3 million, resulting in a pre-tax gain on the sale of approximately $2.085 million. After selling expenses and repayment of the mortgage loan (see Note 10 — Mortgage Notes Payable) and associated costs, the sale generated cash proceeds of approximately $3.4 million (See Notes 5 and 9 to the condensed consolidated financial statements). The Company currently intends to use the net proceeds from this sale to acquire an additional income-producing property, which would qualify the sale and proposed acquisition under Internal Revenue Code Section 1031 for federal income tax deferral, and has placed the proceeds with a qualified third party intermediary in connection therewith. There can be no assurance, however, that the Company will be able to successfully complete such acquisition, in which event the net proceeds would be released from the intermediary to the Company, and the Company’s federal tax liability from the gain on sale would be approximately $1.8 million of which approximately $1.6 million would be offset by the Company’s net operating loss carry-forwards for tax purposes.
The purchaser of the Company’s owned office park is unaffiliated with the Company, and the transaction was negotiated at arms-length. In negotiating the sales price, the Company considered, among other factors: the office park’s historical and anticipated cash flows; the tenant in the office park and their respective remaining lease terms; the condition and location of the office park; and current overall market conditions for the real estate industry.
