MARCH 31, 2005 QUARTERLY REPORT ON FORM 10-Q/A
SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
The matters discussed in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q/A may constitute forward-looking
statements within the meaning of The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These
statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors that may cause our
actual results, activity levels, performance or achievements to be materially different from any
future results, activity levels, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such
forward-looking statements. In some cases, you can identify these statements by forward-looking
words such as could expect estimate may potential will and would or similar words.
You should read statements that contain these words carefully because they discuss our future
expectations, contain projections of our future results of operations or of our financial position,
or state other forward-looking information. We believe it is important to communicate our future
expectations to our investors. However, there may be events in the future that we are not able to
predict or control accurately. The factors listed in the section captioned Risk Factors, as well
as any cautionary language in the Form 10-Q/A, provide examples of risks, uncertainties, and events
that may cause our actual results to differ materially from the expectations we describe in our
forward-looking statements.
Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are
reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, activity levels, performance or achievements. You
should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which apply only as of the
date of the Form 10-Q/A. Subsequent events and developments may cause our views to change.
However, while we may elect to update the forward-looking statements at some point in the future,
we specifically disclaim any obligation to do so.

SPECTRUM SCIENCES & SOFTWARE HOLDINGS CORP.
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements for the three month periods ended
March 31, 2005 and 2004 have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted
accounting principles for interim financial information and pursuant to the rules and regulations
of the Securities and Exchange Commission for Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X.
Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required for complete financial
statements. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial
statements contain all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring accruals, considered
necessary for a fair presentation of the Companys financial position, results of operations, and
cash flows as of and for the periods presented.
The results of operations for the interim periods ended March 31, 2005 and 2004 are not necessarily
indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. These interim consolidated financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the December 31, 2004 consolidated financial
statements and related notes included in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year
ended December 31, 2004, in addition to the interim financial statements, exhibits and related
notes included in the Companys Form 8-Ks filed on February 1,
2005, February 25, 2005, and May 11, 2005, and any amendments thereto.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Organization and Nature of Business
Spectrum Sciences & Software Holdings Corp. (the Company), headquartered in Falls Church,
Virginia, has three reportable segments: Security Solutions, Industrial and Offshore, and Repair
and Overhaul. Security Solutions includes the design and construction of munitions ground support
equipment and containers for the shipping and storage of munitions and software to assist in hazard
management and weapons impact analysis. The Security Solutions segment comprises the previously
reported segments of management services, manufacturing, and engineering and information
technology. Industrial and Offshore operations include the Companys engineering, mechanical
contracting, and steel fabrication operations in the Province of Newfoundland, Canada. The
Companys Repair and Overhaul segment is engaged in providing specialized fabrication and
maintenance for ships, lifeboats, and maritime navigation systems.
The Company acquired M&M Engineering Limited (M&M) and Coast Engine and Equipment Co., Inc.
(CEECO), during the 2005 fiscal year. Details of these acquisitions are included in Note 3.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes utilizing the asset and liability method. This approach
requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax
consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts
of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit
carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected
to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be
recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates
is recognized in income in the period that includes the enacted date. Valuation allowances are
established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.
6
SPECTRUM SCIENCES & SOFTWARE HOLDINGS CORP.
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
The Company currently has a net operating loss carry forward of approximately $9,300,000, which
would equate to a deferred tax asset of approximately $3,000,000 at March 31, 2005. The Company
has not recorded this federal tax benefit in the accompanying consolidated financial statements,
due to the possibility that the net operating loss carryforward may not be utilized, for various
reasons, including the potential that we might not have sufficient profits to use the carryforward
or the carryforward may be limited as a result of changes in our equity ownership.
Earnings (Loss) Per Share
The Company reports its earnings (loss) per share in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards
Board (FASB) Statement No. 128, Earnings Per Share. Statement No. 128 requires the presentation
of basic and diluted loss per share on the face of the statement of operations.
Basic earnings (loss) per share (EPS) is calculated by dividing net income (loss) by the
weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted EPS is
computed in a manner consistent with that of basic EPS while giving effect to the impact of common
stock equivalents. The Companys common stock equivalents consist of employee, director, and
consultant stock options to purchase common stock. Common stock equivalents were not included in
the computation of diluted earnings (loss) per share for the three months ended March 31, 2005 and
2004 as the inclusion of these common stock equivalents would be anti-dilutive as the Company is in
a net loss position and including such shares would reduce the net loss per share.
Financial Instruments
The Company considers all highly liquid, interest-earning investments with a maturity of three
months or less at the date of purchase to be cash equivalents. Short-term investments generally
mature between three months and two years from the purchase date. Investments with maturities
beyond one year may be classified as short-term based on their highly liquid nature and because
such marketable securities represent the investment of cash that is available for current
operations. All short-term investments are classified as available for sale and are recorded at
market value using the specific identification method; unrealized gains and losses are reflected in
Other Comprehensive Income. Investments consist of debt instruments. Debt securities are
classified as available for sale and are recorded at market using the specific identification
method. Unrealized gains and losses (excluding other-than-temporary impairments) are reflected in
Other Comprehensive Income.
Investments are considered to be impaired when a decline in fair value is judged to be other than
temporary. The Company employs a systematic methodology that considers available evidence in
evaluating potential impairment of its investments. If the cost of an investment exceeds its fair
value, the Company evaluates, among other factors, general market conditions, the duration and
extent to which the fair value is less than cost, as well as our intent and ability to hold the
investment. The Company also considers specific adverse conditions related to the financial health
of and business outlook for the investee, including industry and sector performance, changes in
technology, operational and financing cash flow factors, and rating agency actions. Once a decline
in fair value is determined to be other than temporary, an impairment charge is recorded and a new
cost basis for the investment is established.
Foreign Currency Translation
The Companys functional currency is the U.S. dollar, except that the functional currency of M&M is
the Canadian dollar. In the accompanying consolidated financial statements, the monetary assets
and liabilities of M&M were translated to U.S. dollars using the March 31, 2005 exchange rate of
.8267 Canadian dollar to 1.00 U.S. dollar. All monetary consolidated statements of operations
items of M&M were translated at the average exchange rate for the three months ended March 31, 2005
of .8223 Canadian dollar to 1.00 U.S. dollar.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2004, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) 123 (revised
2004), Share-Based Payment (SFAS 123R). SFAS 123R requires measurement of all employee
stock-based compensation awards using a fair-value method and the recording of such expense in the
consolidated financial statements. In addition, the adoption of SFAS 123R requires additional
accounting related to the income tax effects and disclosure regarding the cash flow effects
resulting from share-based payment arrangements. We selected the Black-Scholes option-pricing
model as the most appropriate fair-value method for our awards and will recognize compensation cost
on a straight-line basis over our awards vesting periods, if any. We adopted SFAS 123R in the
first quarter of 2004.
The expected adoption of the following recent accounting pronouncements in the first quarter of
2006 is not expected to have a material impact on our results of operations and financial
condition:
|
|
SFAS No. 151, Inventory CostsAn Amendment of ARB No. 43, Chapter 4 |
|
|
|
SFAS No. 153, Exchanges of Nonmonetary AssetsAn Amendment of APB Opinion No. 29 |
|
|
|
EITF Issue No. 05-06, Determining the Amortization Period for Leasehold Improvements |
In May 2005, the FASB issued SFAS 154, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections (SFAS 154), which
replaces Accounting Principles Board Opinions No. 20 Accounting Changes and SFAS 3, Reporting
Accounting Changes in Interim Financial Statements An Amendment of APB Opinion No. 28. SFAS 154
provides guidance on the accounting for and reporting of accounting changes and error corrections.
It establishes retrospective application, or the earliest practicable date, as the required method
for reporting a change in accounting principle and restatement with respect to the reporting of a
correction of an error. SFAS 154 is effective for accounting changes and corrections of errors made
in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005.
3. ACQUISITIONS
M&M Engineering Limited
On February 1, 2005, the Company acquired M&M for $6,768,202 in cash; a combination of the purchase
of 100% of the common stock of M&M and an issuance of 1,000 preferred shares to the Company. The
purchase price for the common stock of M&M was $5,958,802 in cash. Pursuant to the Purchase
Agreement, M&M redeemed 1,000 of its preferred shares held by EnerNorth Industries Inc. for
$809,400 immediately prior to closing the acquisition and issued the same number of preferred
shares to the Company for $809,400. The total cost of the acquisition includes approximately
$297,000 of acquisition related expenses for a total cost of $7,065,202. The primary purpose of
this acquisition was to diversify the Companys corporate customer base beyond U.S. federal
government contracting and to capitalize on the growth potential in the natural resource sector to
include: the offshore oil and gas industries, the hydroelectric sector, mining and the pulp and
paper industries in Newfoundland and Labrador.
Coast Engine and Equipment
On February 25, 2005, the Company acquired CEECO with an initial cash payment of $300,000 plus an
earn-out over the next three years. Under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the Company will
pay to the former Shareholders of CEECO a total purchase price of up to $900,000 over a three-year
period. The purchase price is payable in cash and common stock of the Company and is subject to
certain adjustments, including, without limitation, adjustments based on CEECOs earnings during
such three-year period. In addition to the $300,000 cash payment for CEECO, there were
approximately $30,000 of acquisition related expenses. Pursuant to a security agreement executed
in connection with the Purchase Agreement, the former Shareholders of CEECO will retain a security
interest in all of the assets of CEECO until the total purchase price has been paid. The Company
has a three-year employment contract with Louis T. Rogers, former owner of CEECO. The CEECO
acquisition allows the Company to exploit other non-government customer bases in the south-central
Florida region. It also provides the opportunity to pursue business opportunities within the U.S. Coast Guard and U.S. Navy by
increasing the Companys presence in that market.

SPECTRUM SCIENCES & SOFTWARE HOLDINGS CORP.
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
Each acquisition described above was accounted for under the purchase method of accounting;
accordingly, the purchase price has been allocated to reflect the fair value of assets and
liabilities acquired at the date of acquisition. For the three-month period ended March 31, 2005,
the results of operations reported for the Company includes a full three months of operations for
Spectrum Sciences & Software, Inc. (SSSI), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, two months
of operations for M&M (February 1, 2005 through March 31, 2005) and one month of operations for
CEECO (March 1, 2005 through March 31, 2005), respectively. For the three month periods ended
March 31, 2004, the results of operations represent only those of SSSI.
Pro Forma Results
The results of these acquisitions, had they been consummated at the beginning of each period shown,
are included in the pro forma information below. The historical revenues and earnings of M&M and
CEECO for the three months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004 have been combined with the revenues and
earnings of Spectrum Sciences & Software Holdings Corp. for the three months ended March 31, 2005
and 2004, respectively. This pro forma information does not necessarily reflect the results of
operations that would have occurred had the acquisitions taken place at the beginning of each of
the three month periods represented and is not necessarily indicative of results that may be
obtained in the future.

The decreased revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2005 as compared with the same quarter
in 2004 is the lack of revenue from the Gila Bend contract that ended in late 2004 offset by an
increase in first article production in the manufacturing group. The Gila Bend contract
contributed approximately $2.6 million of revenue during the quarter ended March 2004. In addition
to $0.7 million in stock-based compensation expense and a $95,000 loss for SSSI; the 2005 net loss
reported above was also significantly impacted by merger and acquisition activity during the period
including costs for accounting and legal fees, investor relations and consulting. The loss for the
three months ended March 31, 2004 includes approximately $11.4 million of stock compensation
expense and $2.1 million of investor relations expenses.
4. RECEIVABLES
Receivables primarily comprise amounts due to the Company for work performed on contracts directly
related to commercial and government customers. The Companys Industrial and Offshore major
clients include Exxon Mobil, Petro Canada, Halliburton, Husky Energy, Inco Ltd., Iron Ore Company
of Canada, North Atlantic Refining Ltd., Abitibi Consolidated and Corner Brook Pulp and Paper. The
Companys Repair and Overhaul segments customers include: the U.S. Navy, U.S. Coast Guard, Military

below.
10
SPECTRUM SCIENCES & SOFTWARE HOLDINGS CORP.
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
CIBC Facility
M&M maintains its own revolving line of credit facility with a commercial bank, the Canadian
Imperial Bank of Commerce (CIBC). This credit facility (the CIBC Facility) was initially
entered into in December 1994 and has been amended and renewed from time to time. The CIBC
Facility currently allows the Company to borrow up to the lesser of i) $1.40 million Canadian, or
ii) 75% of receivables from governments or large institutions and 60% of other receivables to
finance working capital requirements on a revolving basis. The CIBC Facility is payable upon
demand and bears interest at prime plus 2.25%. As of March 31, 2005, there was $0 outstanding
under the CIBC Facility.
As security for the CIBC Facility, M&M has provided a first priority lien on i) receivables,
inventory and specific equipment; ii) a second priority lien on land, buildings and immovable
equipment; and iii) an assignment of insurance proceeds. M&M and M&M Offshore Limited, a wholly
owned subsidiary of M&M, have provided cross-guarantees to CIBC in an unlimited amount to secure
each others share of the CIBC Facility. The CIBC Facility also requires M&M to comply with
specified financial covenants, including current ratio, debt/equity ratio and limits on capital
expenditures, dividends and further encumbrances on collateral. As of March 31, 2005, M&M was in
compliance with all of these covenants.
Magna Credit Facility
During 2003, Magna negotiated a credit facility in the amount of $797,871, which is repayable on
demand and bears interest at the banks prime lending rate plus 1.50% per annum. As security, M&M
has provided a $199,468 guarantee plus an agreement to postpone debt of a further $279,255. There
was no outstanding balance of this demand loan as of March 31, 2005. M&M has not been liable for
any guarantees under this credit facility.
8. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Transactions related to BG Capital Group Limited, Endeavor Group, LLC and Related Stockholders
The Company had recorded a receivable from Robert Genovese, a stockholder of the Company, of
$705,126 at December 31, 2004. However, the Company also recorded a payable to one of Mr.
Genoveses companies of $705,126 at December 31, 2004 primarily representing previously disallowed
investor relations expenses, which were subsequently approved on the basis that satisfactory
support for such expenses was provided. These receivables and payables are recorded as related
party amounts in the financial statements. On April 5, 2005 the receivable of $705,126 was paid to
the Company by Mr. Genovese and the payable to one of Mr. Genoveses companies in the same amount
was paid by the Company.

9. STOCK OPTION PLAN
On January 12, 2005, the Company executed stock option agreements with the directors and officers
of the Company, pursuant to the Amended and Restated Number 2 2004 Non-Statutory Stock Option Plan
(the Plan). Pursuant to stock option agreements, the Company granted options to each of Kelvin
D. Armstrong, Karl Heer, William H. Ham, Jr. and Nancy Gontarek to purchase 300,000 shares of the
Companys common stock, $0.0001 par value per share, at an exercise price of $1.65 per share. All
the options become exercisable as of the date on which the Company has consummated, since January
12, 2005, the acquisition of businesses with annual revenues in the aggregate of at least $20
million. The options expire on January 12, 2008. The Company has chosen to implement FASB
Statement No. 123R, Share-Based Payment, which requires options be valued at fair value at the
grant date, effective January 1, 2004. The fair value of the options issued was estimated at the
grant date using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted-average
assumptions: risk-free interest rate of 2.84%; no dividend yields; volatility factors of the
expected market price of our common stock of 0.67; and an expected option life of three years.
This generates a price of $0.63 per option based on an exercise price of $1.65 at the grant date,
January 12, 2005. As a result, $751,662 of compensation expense and additional paid-in capital was
recorded at the grant date.
On February 14, 2005, the Company executed additional stock option agreements with the directors of
the Company pursuant to the Plan. Pursuant to those stock option agreements, the Company granted
options to each of Kelvin D. Armstrong, Karl Heer and William H. Ham, Jr. to purchase 500,000
shares of the Companys common stock, $0.0001 par value per share, at an exercise price of $2.50
per share. All of the options issued to the directors will expire on February 14, 2008. All of
the options become exercisable as of the date on which the Company certifies, based on the
Companys audited financial statements for the 2005 fiscal year as filed in the Companys Annual
Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) for such fiscal
year, that the Company has achieved earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization
of $4 million for the 2005 fiscal year. No compensation expense has been recorded because it
cannot reasonably be determined, at this time, if the exercise contingency associated with these
options will be satisfied.
On April 7, 2005, the Company granted certain employees options to purchase an aggregate of 502,000
shares of the Companys common stock, $0.0001 par value per share, at an exercise price of $1.95,
pursuant to the Plan. All the options issued expire on April 7, 2008. The fair value of the
options issued was estimated at the grant date using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with
the following weighted-average assumptions: risk-free interest rate of 3.02%; no dividend yields;
volatility factors of the expected market price of our common stock of 0.73; and an expected life
of the options of three years. This generates a price of $1.27 per option based on a $1.95 exercise
price at the grant date, April 7, 2005. As a result, $638,901 of compensation expense and additional
paid-in capital was recorded at the grant date.

10. SEGMENT INFORMATION
Segment information has been presented on a basis consistent with how business activities are
reported internally to management. Management evaluates operating profit by segment taking into
account direct costs of each segments products and services as well as an allocation of indirect
corporate overhead costs. Through its three subsidiaries, the Company has three operating
segments. The Security Solutions segment as reported by Spectrum, Inc. includes operations for
management services, manufacturing, and engineering and information technology predominantly in the
munitions and Homeland safety arena. The Industrial and Offshore
segment reported by M&M includes the Companys engineering, mechanical contracting and steel fabrication
in the Province of Newfoundland, Canada. The Repair and Overhaul segment as reported by Coast
Engine and Equipment Company, Inc. is engaged in providing specialized fabrication and maintenance
for ships, lifeboats and maritime navigation systems. The following is a summary of certain
financial information related to the three segments during the three months ended March 31, 2005
and 2004. Results are not reported in 2004 for the Industrial and Offshore segment and the Repair
and Overhaul segment as they were not part of the Companys operations during that time period.
For the three month periods ended March 31, 2005, the segment results reported for the Company
include a full three months of operations for SSSI, two months of operations for M&M (beginning
February 1, 2005) and one months of operations for CEECO (beginning March 1, 2005. For the three
month periods ended March 31, 2004, the segment results represent only those of SSSI. Note that
the previously reported segments of management services, engineering and information technology,
and manufacturing have now been consolidated into the Security Solutions segment consistent with
how the Company is now being managed.

11. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Legal Matters
Harassment Suit
In December 2002, three SSSI employees each filed complaints for violation of civil rights,
discrimination, harassment, hostile work environment and retaliation in the United States District
Court, District of Arizona. The case numbers for these complaints are: CIV 02 2621PHX MHM; CIV
02 2619 PHX DKD; and CIV 02 2620 PHX FJM. In January 2003, SSSI filed answers to all three
complaints, denying all allegations of wrongdoing. The plaintiffs requested the following:
compensatory damages, plus special incidental damages in such a sum as may be proven at trial;
punitive damages in such a sum as may be proven at trial; cost for the suit; cost of attorneys
fees; and such other relief as the court deems just and proper. The case was brought for trial on
January 31, 2005 and the case was adjudicated in favor of the plaintiffs with a total award of
$383,100 plus attorneys fees. The awards were for $300,000, $80,000, and $3,100 respectively for
the three plaintiffs. On March 7, 2005 the plaintiffs lodged a Form of Judgment with the court.
SSSI filed an objection to the Form of Judgment on the basis that the judgment amounts exceed the
statutory limits allowed under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. SSSI asserted that under
42 U.S.C. 1981a(3) the maximum individual award should not exceed $50,000 per plaintiff as the
operations in Arizona did not exceed 100 total employees during the relevant periods for the case.
Upon motion by SSSI, the court reduced the individual $300,000 award down to $100,000 and brought
the total to $183,100. As we believe the ruling was still based on incorrect assumptions, SSSI has
petitioned the court to reconsider and has provided evidence of a $50,000 cap per claimant as the
appropriate form of judgment. The court has not yet ruled on SSSIs request for reconsideration.
Section 16 (b) Claim
In July, 2004, a complaint was filed in the United States District Court, southern District of
Florida by Todd Augenbaum against Robert Genovese (Genovese), Endeavor Capital Group, LLC, BG
Capital Group, Ltd, and SSSI. The suit alleges that Genovese and his affiliated companies
beneficially owned more than 10% of the outstanding common stock of SSSI and that Genovese acted as
an officer and director of the Company. Based on
these assertions, the suit claims that Genovese was a statutory insider of SSSI, and as such, is
presumed to have had access to material non-public information concerning the Companys operations
and future business prospects, and is therefore subject to the provisions of Section 16(b) of the
Exchange Act. The action was brought by Mr. Augenbaum in order to obtain a recovery for the
Company of short-swing profits alleged to have been unlawfully obtained by Genovese through the
purchase and sale of Company securities. The Company is a nominal defendant in the action and has
no liability for the claims asserted therein against the other defendents. The Companys answer to
the complaint was filed in the U.S. District Court, Ft. Lauderdale, FL on August 26, 2004. The
plaintiff filed an Amended Complaint on October 18, 2004 and the Company filed its response as a
nominal defendant November 12, 2004. The defendants filed a motion to dismiss the action and the
court denied the motion on January 6, 2005. The Company cannot currently make a prediction of what
the outcome of the litigation will be.
Claim by the former President of the Company, Mr. Donal R. Myrick
On August 24, 2004, the former President and CEO of the Company, Mr. Donal R. Myrick filed a
complaint for alleged breach of employment contracts and damages associated with a delayed stock
sale. The case was filed in the Circuit Court, First Judicial Circuit in and for Okaloosa County,
Florida under case number 04CA3510. The suit alleges three counts against the Company:
|
|
|
SSSI has breached its obligation under an oral employment agreement for the period
November 2002 to December 2003 by failing and refusing to pay salary or benefits; |
|
|
|
|
SSSI has breached its obligation under a written employment agreement starting December
2003 by failing to fully compensate Mr. Myrick under that agreement up to the time of his
resignation; and |
|
|
|
|
SSSI, by its failure to issue an opinion letter to allow the sale of Mr. Myricks stock
in the open market, is liable for the damages that occurred due to the difference in value
as to the date of the registration of transfer should have occurred and the eventual date
that Mr. Myrick was able to liquidate the stock in the open market. |
14
SPECTRUM SCIENCES & SOFTWARE HOLDINGS CORP.
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
Mr. Myricks suit demands of and from SSSI together with interest and costs and such other and
further relief as the Court deems just and proper. The Company intends to vigorously defend its
position in the case and filed its answer to Mr. Myricks complaint on October 25, 2004. Discovery
is continuing and one deposition has been completed in advance of a court ordered attempt to
mediate the claim. The Company currently does not know what the outcome of this litigation will
be.
Munitions Assembly Conveyor (MAC) Lawsuit
On August 23, 2004, SSSI filed suit against the United States Government in the United States Court
of Federal Claims (case number 04-1366C) based on the Governments actions associated with the
procurement of the improved Munitions assembly Conveyor (MAC). The MAC is a munitions handling
and support equipment system used to build up munitions prior to loading on an aircraft. As a
result of SSSIs experience in both utilizing and producing the MAC, SSSI identified numerous areas
needing improvement and upgrading to this old system. Based on SSSIs work, the Government entered
into a Cooperative Research and Development Agreement (CRADA) for the purpose of improving
munitions support equipment including the MAC. As part of the CRADA negotiation, Sepctrum
identified its prior development and unique modifications and improvements that constituted SSSIs
trade secrets and intellectual property associated with the MAC. Following completion of the CRADA
effort and delivery of the final report, the Government made overtures to purchase SSSIs rights in
the redesigned the MAC, however, the offer was rejected as being inadequate to compensate SSSI for
its efforts in redesigning the MAC and for the potential for further licensing opportunities.
Following the failure of these discussions, SSSI alleges that the Government deliberately breached
its obligation to SSSI under the CRADA to safeguard and protect SSSIs intellectual property and
proprietary information by improperly disclosing and widely disseminating to third parties,
including SSSI competitors, SSSIs proprietary information via a draft Request for Proposal
Solicitation dated May 1, 2004. Based on the Governments actions, SSSI filed suit in the United
States Court of Federal Claims containing three counts alleging:
|
|
|
Breach of Express Contract |
|
|
|
|
Breach of Implied in Fact Contract |
|
|
|
|
Misappropriation of Trade Secrets |
SSSI has requested damages in excess of three and one half million dollars ($3,500,000) and will
request the award of its costs, fees, expenses and attorneys fees associated with this action.
The Department of Justice on behalf of the agency filed its response on December 6, 2004. Based on
discovery to date, SSSI has amended its suit on March 14, 2005. Initial Rule 26 documents have
been exchanged and motions on the pleadings and substantial discovery are ongoing. The Company
cannot predict the outcome of this litigation but is confident of its position as set forth in this
lawsuit.
Garrison Lawsuit
On February 22, 2005, SSSI filed suit against former employees Donald L. Garrison, David M.
Hatfield and their current employer Control Systems Research, Inc. in the Circuit Court of the
First Judicial Circuit in and for Okaloosa County, Florida (case number 2005-CA-000779 S). SSSI
alleges that during their employment at SSSI, Mr. Garrison and Mr. Hatfield were actively involved
with the development and application of the Safe Range project (a proprietary product) and other
non-technical company information such as employee wage data and personnel files, marketing plans,
bidding information, and information about other SSSI contracts and affairs. The suit alleges that
Garrison and Hatfield used SSSIs confidential and proprietary information (in violation of their
signed agreements for Protection of Proprietary Information) to allow their new employer (Control
Systems Research, Inc.) to improperly compete against SSSI with regards to the Safe Range program
and other related government contracts. The five counts identified in the lawsuit include:
|
|
|
Breach of Contract |
|
|
|
|
Violation of Uniform Trade Secrets Act |

12. INVESTMENTS IN JOINT VENTURES
M&M Engineering Limited
M&M conducts a portion of its business through two joint ventures, Newfoundland
Service Alliance, Inc. (NSA) a 20.83% owned joint venture and Magna Services, Inc. (Magna) a
50% owned joint venture. These investments are accounted for using the equity method of
accounting.
NSA, a Newfoundland and Labrador corporation, was incorporated in December 1996 to combine the
expertise of its shareholders in providing comprehensive onshore support services to the
Newfoundland and Labrador oil and gas industry. NSA is jointly owned by M&M Offshore Limited (MMO)
(20.83%), G.J. Cahill & Company (1979) Limited (Cahill) (20.83%), New Valve Services and
Consulting Inc. (20.83%), Peacock Inc. (20.83%), and Siemens Westinghouse Ltd (16.68%).
Magna, a Newfoundland and Labrador corporation, was incorporated in April 1997 to provide offshore
support services to the Newfoundland and Labrador oil and gas industry including the Hibernia and
Terra Nova offshore oil projects. Magna is jointly owned 50% by MMO and 50% by Jendore Limited.
Liannu is a limited partnership formed under the laws of Newfoundland and Labrador in November
2002, for the purpose of providing services in Labrador including industrial mechanical
contracting, structural and steel
fabrication and erection and other services including the Voiseys Bay nickel mine development.
M&M is the general partner of Liannu, and holds a .01% general partners interest and a 48.99%
limited partners interest in the partnership. The remaining 51% limited partnership interests are
held by two individuals unrelated to the Company. As a general partner, M&M charges a management
fee equal to 5% of the contract price for contracts entered into by the partnership.
In addition, Liannu has entered into an informal teaming arrangement with a similar corporation
named Mista-Shipu Constructors Limited (Mista-Shipu). The entity Liannu/Mista-Shipu was
designed to be a 50/50 joint venture for the purpose of fulfilling a $3 million contract in 2004,
regarding the site-wide supply and installation of cladding for the infrastructure buildings at
Voiseys Bay.
During 2004, the Industrial & Offshore segment through Liannu was awarded contracts totaling $7.79
million with Voiseys Bay Nickel Company (VBNC), which produced revenue of $3.80 million during
fiscal 2004. Voiseys Bay is located in Newfoundland and Labrador, and is the site of a large
nickel deposit currently being developed by INCO through its subsidiary, VBNC. The contracts
awarded to Liannu to date include: the fabrication of four concentrate storage tanks; the
fabrication of various pumphouses, including a port fuel unloading/dispensing system; a fire/fresh
water pumphouse, a potable water pumphouse and a mill site fuel dispensing system; and the
fabrication of forty-nine unique tanks to be used for various purposes in the storing and refining
of ore.
As of the period ended March 31, 2005, M&M recorded $469,086 in receivables from these joint
ventures and from a terminated joint venture, North Eastern Constructors Limited. The Company
believes these amounts are fully collectible.

13. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
Horne Engineering, Inc.
On May 11, 2005, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Horne
Engineering, Inc. (Horne), from its shareholders, Darryl K. Horne, Charlene M. Horne and Michael
M. Megless (the Horne Shareholders), pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the Merger
Agreement). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Horne was merged with and into Horne Acquisition
LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. The purchase price for the capital stock of Horne
was $4.5 million in cash and 6.1 million unregistered shares of the Companys common stock (the
Shares). Additional shares of common stock could subsequently become issuable by the Company to
the Horne Shareholders to the extent that the average closing price of the Companys common stock
on NASD OTC Bulletin Board, or other public securities market, for the trading days during the two
month period ending on May 11, 2007 is less than $3.25 per share, subject to Horne (on a stand
alone basis) meeting or exceeding 2005 gross revenues of $75 million with EBITDA (as defined in the
merger agreement) of $3.25 million (the 2005 EBITDA) and EBITDA of not less than $3.25 million in
2006. Pursuant to an Amendment and Waiver Agreement entered into among the parties to the Merger
Agreement on May 11, 2005 (the Amendment), the Company held back 4.0 million of the Shares
payable to the former Horne Shareholders under the Merger Agreement (the Hold Back Shares), with
the disposition of those shares subject to two conditions. First, the Amendment requires the
Company to release 3.0 million of the Hold Back Shares to the former Horne Shareholders promptly
upon receiving certain third party consents relating to certain of Hornes contracts, which are
specified in the Amendment. Second, if Hornes 2005 EBITDA is less than $3.25 million (the EBITDA
Shortfall), the Company will be entitled to recover any remaining Hold Back Shares limited such
that the value of the recovered Hold Back Shares, based on the closing price of the Companys
common stock on May 11, 2005, does not exceed three times the EBITDA Shortfall. As of November 11,
2005, the Company has received the required consents described above and intends to promptly issue
three million of the Holdback shares to Hornes former shareholders. See also subsequent events
described in Note 12.
In connection with the Merger Agreement, the Company and the Horne Shareholders entered into a
Registration Rights Agreement, dated May 11, 2005 (the Rights Agreement), pursuant to which the
Company agreed to prepare and file a registration statement pursuant to Rule 415 under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the Securities Act), covering the resale from time to time of
all of the shares of the Companys common stock issued to the Shareholders pursuant to the Merger
Agreement.
Upon the closing of the Merger Agreement, Messrs. Horne and Megless were appointed to the Companys
Board of Directors. In connection with the Merger Agreement, Messrs. Horne and Megless executed
Employment Agreements with the Company, dated as of May 11, 2005 (the Employment Agreements),
pursuant to which such individuals were appointed Chief Executive Officer (CEO), and Chief
Financial Officer (CFO), respectively. Pursuant to a Stock Option Agreement executed in
connection with the Merger Agreement, Mr. Horne received an option to purchase 1.0 million shares
of the Companys common stock at an exercise price of $1.65 per share, subject to Horne meeting the
revenue and EBITDA targets for 2005 as described above. The Company also reserved 2.0 million
shares of the Companys common stock for the issuance of stock options to be granted to the
employees of Horne at the discretion of Mr. Horne.
Required Consents Received
In connection with the Companys acquisition of Horne Services, Inc. on May 11, 2005, the Company
held back four million shares of the Companys common stock payable to the former shareholders of
Horne pending the receipt of certain third party consents relating to certain of Hornes contracts
and the determination of Hornes 2005 EBITDA, as defined in Note 3 of these financial statements.
As of November 11, 2005, the Company has received each of such required consents and, accordingly,
intends to promptly issue three million shares of the Companys common stock to Hornes former
shareholders. The Company will continue to hold back one million shares of the Companys common
stock that is payable to Hornes former shareholders pending the audited financial results of the
Company and the determination of Hornes 2005 EBITDA. The three million shares of the Companys
common stock held back in connection with the required consents are shown as issued in the
Consolidated Statement of Stockholders Equity for the three months ended March 31, 2005.

SPECTRUM SCIENCES & SOFTWARE HOLDINGS CORP.
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
Stock Option Activity
On June 6, 2005, the Company executed stock option agreements with certain employees pursuant to
the Plan. Pursuant to the agreements a total of 13,750 shares of the Companys common stock,
$0.0001 par value per share, at an exercise price of $1.28 per share. All the options issued will
expire on June 6, 2008. The fair value of the options issued was estimated at the grant date using
the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions: risk-free
interest rate of 3.30%; no dividend yields; volatility factors of the expected market price of our
common stock of 0.73; and an expected life of the options of three years. This generates a price
of $0.62 per option based on a strike price of $1.28 at the grant date, which was June 6, 2005. As
a result, $8,462 of compensation expense and additional paid-in capital was recorded at the grant
date.
On June 8, 2005, the Company executed stock option agreements, pursuant to the Plan, with Darryl K.
Horne and Michael M. Megless, who were appointed as directors of the Company on May 11, 2005.
Pursuant to the stock option agreements, the Company granted, to each of Messrs. Horne and Megless,
options to purchase 500,000 shares of the Companys common stock, $0.0001 par value per share, at
an exercise price of $2.50 per share. All of the options issued to Messrs. Horne and Megless will
expire on June 8, 2008. All of the options will become exercisable if and as of the date on which
the Company certifies, based on the Companys audited financial statements for the 2005 fiscal year
as filed in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC for such fiscal year, that
the Company has achieved earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization of $4
million for the 2005 fiscal year. No compensation expense has been recorded because it cannot
reasonably be determined at this time that the exercise contingency associated with these options
will be satisfied.
Legal Update
The Company resolved or received clarification on several open legal issues on November 17, 2005.
The Company has been notified by the Securities and Exchange Commission that the informal
investigation into the Company has been terminated with no resulting enforcement proceedings
against the Company or any current director or officer of the Company. Also on November 17, 2005,
the Company entered into a Stipulation and Agreement of Compromise (the Stipulation) for the
Section 16(b) Augenbaum case. The Defendants agreed to make settlement payments of $3,250,000 with
$975,000 in cash and the remainder in stock. This agreement was approved by the court on December
1, 2005.
In connection with the Stipulation, the Company has agreed to a Settlement and Standstill Agreement
with Robert Genovese and the BG Capital Group, LTD. pursuant to which the Company will receive a
$800,000 cash payment and one million shares of the Company stock. In return, Mr. Genovese and BG
Capital have agreed not to engage in certain actions with respect to the Company until December 31,
2008.
The Company has settled its harassment suit for a total payment of $188,000 during the third
quarter of 2005. The Company also settled its claim with Donal Myrick, the former President and
CEO of the Company. The Company paid Mr. Myrick $155,000 in full settlement.

The new senior management of the Company has begun to integrate the subsidiaries into a cohesive
organization that will capitalize on the strengths of the individual subsidiaries and provide
synergistic and focused solutions for our clients. As part of this effort, the Company has formed
a transition team comprised of members from each organization. Its objective is to identify
synergies in operations, products and services, its clients and administration processes that will
result in a more efficient Company better able to focus on its core strengths by optimizing and
aligning all of its resources. The recommendations of the transition team will be a very important
factor in determining the Companys future direction.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations are based
upon our consolidated financial statements which have been prepared in accordance with United
States generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of these financial statements
requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the
financial statements and determine whether contingent assets and liabilities, if any, are disclosed
in the financial statements. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and assumptions,
including those related to long-term contracts, product returns, bad debts, inventories, fixed
asset lives, income taxes, environmental matters, litigation and other contingencies. We based our
estimates and assumptions on historical experience and on various factors that are believed to be
reasonable under the circumstances, including current and expected economic conditions, the results of which form the basis for making judgments
about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other
sources.
19
Actual results may differ materially from our estimates under different assumptions or
conditions.
We believe that the following critical accounting policies, among others, require us to make
significant estimates and judgments in the preparation of our financial statements:
Revenue Recognition
We recognize revenue and profit on substantially all of our fixed price contracts using the
percentage-of-completion method of accounting, which relies on estimates of total expected contract
revenues and costs. We follow this method since reasonably dependable estimates of the revenues
and costs applicable to various stages of the contracts can be made. Recognized revenues and
profit are subject to revisions as the projects progress to completion. Revisions to the profit
estimates are charged to income in the period in which the facts that give rise to the revisions
become known. Revenue from cost-plus contracts is recognized on the basis of direct costs plus
indirect costs incurred and an allocable portion of the fixed fee. Revenue from time and material
contracts is recognized based on fixed hourly rates for direct labor hours expended. The fixed
rate includes direct labor, indirect expenses and profit. Materials or other specified direct cost
are recorded at actual cost.
Inventory Valuation
We review our inventory balances to determine if inventories can be sold at amounts equal to or
greater than their carrying value. The review includes identification of slow-moving inventories,
obsolete inventories, and discontinued products or lines of products. The identification process
includes analysis of historical performance of the inventory and current operational plans for the
inventory as well as industry and customer-specific trends. If our actual results differ from
management expectations with respect to the selling of our inventories at amounts equal to or
greater than our carrying amounts, we would be required to adjust our inventory values accordingly.
Foreign Currency Translation
The Companys functional currency is the U.S. dollar, except that the functional currency of M&M is
the Canadian dollar. In the accompanying consolidated financial statements, the monetary assets
and liabilities of M&M were translated to U.S. dollars using the March 31, 2005 exchange rate of
.8267 Canadian dollar to 1.00 U.S. dollar. All monetary consolidated statements of operations
items of M&M were translated at the average exchange rate for the three months ended March 31, 2005
of .8233 Canadian dollar to 1.00 U.S. dollar.
Net Operating Loss Carryforwards
We have not recognized the benefit in our financial statements with respect to the approximately
$9,300,000 net operating loss carryforward for federal income tax purposes as of March 31, 2005.
This benefit was not recognized due to the possibility that the net operating loss carryforward
would not be utilized, for various reasons, including the potential that we might not have
sufficient profits to use the carryforward or the carryforward may be limited as a result of
changes in our equity ownership. We intend to use this carryforward to offset our future taxable
income. If we were to use any of this net operating loss carryforward to reduce our future taxable
income and the Internal Revenue Service were to then successfully assert that our carryforward is
subject to limitation as a result of capital transactions occurring in 2002 or otherwise, we may be
liable for back taxes, interest and, possibly, penalties prospectively.
Impairment of Long Lived Assets
We assess the impairment of long-lived assets on an ongoing basis and whenever events or
changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable based upon an
estimate of future discounted cash flows. Factors we consider that could trigger an impairment
review include the following: (i) significant underperformance relative to expected historical or projected future operating results; (ii)
significant changes in the manner of our use of the acquired assets or the strategy for our overall
business; and (iii) significant negative industry or economic trends.
20
When we determine that the
carrying value of any long-lived asset may not be recoverable based upon the existence of one or
more of the above indicators of impairment, we measure impairment based on the difference between
an assets carrying value and an estimate of fair value, which may be determined based upon quotes
or a projected discounted cash flow, using a discount rate determined by our management to be
commensurate with our cost of capital and the risk inherent in our current business model, and
other measures of fair value.
Off Balance Sheet Risk
The Company currently has no off balance sheet arrangements.
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the unaudited financial
statements (and notes thereto) and other financial information of the Company appearing elsewhere
in this report. For the three month periods ended March 31, 2004, the segment results represent
only those of SSSI.

Total revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2005 decreased compared with the same period in
2004, primarily as a result of the decreased revenue from the Gila Bend contract partially offset
by the acquisition of M&M and CEECO. The revenue associated with the Gila Bend
contract decreased by $2.6 million. Gross profit as a percentage of revenue was 15.5% for the three
months ended March 31, 2005 as compared with 9% for the prior year period. These increased margins
are due primarily to the profitability of the three subsidiaries acquired during 2005 and the
reduction in revenue on the Gila Bend contract that had a 1% gross profit margin during the first
quarter of 2004.

The Security Solutions segment, comprised of manufacturing, software engineering and management
services, had a decrease in revenue due to the loss of the Gila Bend contract that provided
approximately $2.6 million of revenue in the first quarter of 2004. The segment witnessed
continued growth in its manufacturing operations while software engineering had minimal change in
revenue between the periods. Overall, gross margin is up due to the reduction in low margin Gila
Bend revenue when compared to the same quarter in 2004.
The manufacturing group increased their revenue by 106% to $1.3 million for the first quarter of
2005. The work performed for government approved First Article verification has resulted in the
revenue growth for the quarter.
Industrial and Offshore Segment

Revenue was driven by two projects including INCO and NARL, a duct and stacks fabrication project.
Combined these projects contributed approximately 90% of the revenue for the period. The revenue
and gross margins for the quarter are consistent with the segments contributions for this time of
year given the seasonality of the business.
The segment is currently engaged in a substantial contract with INCO to construct an ore-processing
facility in Canada based on an experimental hydromet process. This facility is a prototype, with
plans to construct a larger operation in the near future should the prototype prove economically
feasible.

During the three months ended March 31, 2005, selling, general, and administrative expenses
were significantly less than the expense incurred in the same period ended March 31, 2004. This is
primarily due to $11.4 million of stock-based compensation expense incurred during the second
quarter of 2004. The Company recorded $0.7 million of stock-based compensation during the quarter
ended March 31, 2005 as compared with $11.4 million of stock-based compensation expense for
consulting fees during the quarter ended March 31, 2004. The Company also recorded $2.1 million of
investor relations expenses during the first quarter of 2004 with no comparable expenses during
2005. These reductions in expense are partially offset by the increased expenses associated with
the newly acquired subsidiaries. The quarterly selling, general and administrative expense
associated with the acquired companies including both costs associated with the acquisitions and
the overhead costs associated with these units.
Other Income and Expenses
Non-operating income increased $187,000 from the comparable prior year period as a result of the
joint venture earnings from M&M and a positive change in interest income of approximately $90,000.
The M&M joint ventures provided approximately $87,000 of income that was not present in the prior
period.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Total liquidity, consisting of cash equivalents and short-term investments, decreased by $7.6
million as of March 31, 2005, as compared with December 31, 2004. The majority of the funds
expended were utilized for the acquisitions of M&M and CEECO. At March 31, 2005, cash
and cash equivalents totaled $611,780 as compared with $5,666,910 at December 31, 2004. At
December 31, 2004, the Company had $18,795,143 in money market accounts and short-term
government-backed securities as a result of investing funds received from the exercise of stock
options. The balance in these investments at March 31, 2005 was $15,223,262.
Accounts receivable represent our largest working capital requirement. We bill most of our clients
monthly or at the completion of a milestone. Our overall cash flow is predicated on the timely
collection of our outstanding receivable balances. We have no indication that there will be any
collectability issues regarding our outstanding receivables.
Available cash, cash equivalents and short term investments combined with cash provided by
operations anticipated through December 31, 2005 should provide sufficient operating capital to
fund operations. In addition, available lines of credit currently in place will provide for
additional working capital as necessary.
23
Commitments
The Company, during the normal course of business, enters into agreements with subcontractors and
vendors to provide products and services that we consume in our operations or that are delivered to
our customers. These products and services are not considered unconditional obligations until the
products and services are actually delivered. We do not record a liability until that criterion is
met. The table below summarizes our contractual obligations under operating leases, capital leases
and debt.

Risk Factors
The Company is subject to several risk factors that could have a direct and material impact on the
operations of the Company. These risk factors are described below.
We may not receive the full amount of our contract awards.
The Company receives many government contract awards that include both funded and unfunded amounts.
While the Company believes that most contracts will become fully funded and executed, there are
occasions where the final executed amount of the contract may be substantially less than the
contract award. Congress often appropriates funds for our clients on a yearly basis, even though
our contracts may call for services over a number of years. As a result, Congress may elect not to
fund a particular contract in future years. Additionally, the funded amounts on contracts may not
be fully recognized in revenue as the priorities of the contract issuing agencies may change and
funding may be reappropriated for other uses.
We may not be able to integrate our new management and the acquired companies successfully to
achieve the expected benefits of these acquisitions.
In 2005, the Company acquired three new subsidiaries and had a change in executive management. If
we are unable to successfully integrate the existing companies and the new management, our revenue
and operating results could suffer. The difficulties of integration may be increased by the
necessity of coordinating a diverse set of businesses that are both geographically and
operationally disparate. Integrating these operations and related personnel may result in
increased attrition, including but not limited to key employees of acquired companies, that could
adversely affect our future revenue and profitability.
Increased raw material prices may adversely affect contract profitability.
The Company has experienced significant increases in both steel and aluminum raw material prices.
Continued increases in the price of raw materials could have a negative impact on the profitability
of the Company. Many of our contracts in our manufacturing components are fixed price contracts
and are not automatically repriced when raw material costs increase. We aggressively pursue our
contract rights to receive compensation for these increased costs, where available, but not all
contracts have price adjustment clauses that allow the Company to recover those cost increases.
24
Loss of bonding may adversely impact our Canadian operations.
The Company has obtained bonding in Canada through posting a cash deposit with a Canadian surety
company. This was the only vehicle available for securing adequate bonding for M&M to continue its
operations. The loss of such bonding could have a material adverse impact on the revenues and
related profitability of M&M. The Company is currently seeking non-cash secured bonding. Failure
to obtain such bonding could adversely impact the Company through reduced revenue and profit.
Quarterly operating results may fluctuate significantly as a result of factors outside of our
control, which could cause the market price of our common stock to decline.
Revenue and operating results could vary significantly from quarter to quarter. In addition, we
cannot predict with certainty our future revenue or results of operations. As a consequence, our
operating results may fall below the expectations of securities analysts and investors, which could
cause the price of our common stock to decline. Factors that may affect our operating results
include:
|
|
fluctuations in revenue earned on contracts; |
|
|
|
commencement, completion, or termination of contracts during any particular quarter; |
|
|
|
variable purchasing patterns under GSA schedule contracts and agency-specific indefinite delivery/indefinite
quantity contracts; |
|
|
|
providing services under a share-in-savings or performance-based contract; |
|
|
|
additions and departures of key personnel; |
|
|
|
strategic decisions by us or our competitors, such as acquisitions, divestitures, spin-offs, joint ventures,
strategic investments, or changes in business strategy; |
|
|
|
contract mix, the extent of use of subcontractors, and the level of third-party hardware and software purchases
for customers; |
|
|
|
changes in presidential administrations and senior federal government officials that affect the timing of
technology procurement; |
|
|
|
changes in policy or budgetary measures that adversely affect government contracts in general; and |
|
|
|
the seasonality of our business. |
Reductions in revenue in a particular quarter could lead to lower profitability in that quarter
because a relatively large amount of our expenses are fixed in the short-term. We may incur
significant operating expenses during the start-up and early stages of large contracts and may not
receive corresponding payments or revenue in that same quarter. We may also incur significant or
unanticipated expenses when contracts expire or are terminated or are not renewed. In addition,
payments due to us from government agencies may be delayed due to billing cycles or as a result of
failures of governmental budgets to gain Congressional and administration approval in a timely
manner.
Our business commitments require our employees to travel to potentially dangerous places, which
may result in injury to our employees.
Our business involves providing services that require our employees to operate in various countries
around the world, including Iraq. These countries may be experiencing political upheaval or unrest,
and in some cases war or terrorism. Certain senior level employees or executives may, on occasion,
be part of the teams deployed to provide services in these countries. As a result, it is possible
that certain of our employees or executives will suffer injury or bodily harm in the course of
these deployments. It is also possible that we will encounter unexpected costs in connection with
additional risks inherent with sending our employees to dangerous locations, such as increased
insurance costs, as well as the repatriation of our employees or executives for reasons beyond our
control. These problems could cause our actual results to differ materially from those
anticipated.
25
Unfavorable government audit results could force the Company to adjust previously reported
operating results and could subject us to a variety of penalties and sanctions.
A significant portion of our revenue comes from payments made by the U.S. government on prime
contracts and subcontracts. The costs of these contracts are subject to audit by the Defense
Contract Audit Agency (DCAA). Disallowance of these contract costs by DCAA could adversely affect
the Companys financial statements. Management periodically reviews its estimates of allowable and
unallowable costs based on the results of government audits and makes adjustments, if any, as
required.
If the government discovers improper or illegal activities, by the Company or its employees,
the Company may be subject to civil and criminal penalties and administrative sanctions, including
contract termination, forfeiture of profits, suspension of payments, fines, and suspension or
disbarment from conducting future business with the government. In addition, the Company could
suffer serious harm to our reputation if allegations of impropriety were made against it, whether
or not true. The Company is not aware of any instances of improper or illegal activities of its
employees.
26
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Interest Rate Risk
At March 31, 2005, only our M&M subsidiary had no amounts outstanding under a revolving credit
facility. We have not historically mitigated our exposure to fluctuations in interest rates by
entering into interest rate hedge agreements nor do we have any plans to do so in the immediate
future.
Cash and cash equivalents, as of March 31, 2005, were $0.6 million and are primarily invested in
money market interest bearing accounts. A hypothetical 10% adverse change in the average interest
rate on our money market cash investments would have had no material effect on net income for the
three months ended March 31, 2005.
Foreign Exchange Risk
We are exposed to foreign currency risks due to both transactions and translations between
functional and reporting currencies in our Canadian subsidiaries. We are exposed to the impact of
foreign currency fluctuations due to the operations of and net monetary asset and liability
positions in our Canadian subsidiaries.
In addition, we estimate that an immediate 10% change in foreign exchange rates would impact
reported net income or loss by an immaterial amount. We do not currently utilize any derivative
financial instruments to hedge foreign currency risks.
27
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
We evaluated the effectiveness of the Companys disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31,
2005. The term disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)
under the Exchange Act, means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to
ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or
submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time
periods specified in the SECs rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include,
without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be
disclosed in such reports is accumulated and communicated to the companys management, including
its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions
regarding required disclosure. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter
how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives
and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of
possible controls and procedures. Based on the evaluation of the Companys disclosure controls and
procedures as of March 31, 2005, the Companys chief executive officer and chief financial officer
concluded that, as of such date, the Companys disclosure controls and procedures were not
effective for the reasons described in the following paragraph.
We filed our quarterly reports for the quarter ended March 31, 2005 on Form 10-QSB as a small
business issuer. In connection with the preparation of the quarterly report for the quarter ended
September 30, 2005, we determined that pursuant to Item 10(a)(2) of Regulation S-B we ceased to
qualify as a small business issuer as of January 1, 2005 because our public float exceeded $25
million as of the end of the last two years. As a result, we were not eligible to file our 2005
quarterly reports on Form 10-QSB, but were instead required to file them on Form 10-Q.
Consequently, we are amending this quarterly report on Form 10-Q/A to replace our previously filed
Form 10-QSB.
The Companys current chief executive officer and chief financial officer joined the Company in
June 2005. Internal controls and procedures in place during the second quarter 10-Q process
included a Form 10-QSB applicability review by senior management together with outside legal and
accounting professionals. Internal control reviews by senior management and outside consultants
for the third quarter 10-Q process determined that the Company incorrectly filed Form 10-QSB for
the quarters ended March 31 and June 30, 2005. Steps we have taken to enhance our disclosure
controls and procedures include hiring a new controller with SEC reporting experience, appointing a
chairman of the audit committee and hiring an internal general counsel.
