SUNAIR SERVICES CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
1. Basis of Consolidated Financial Statement Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and do not include all the information and footnote disclosures normally included in consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The information furnished in the interim financial statements includes normal recurring adjustments and reflects all adjustments, which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of such financial statements. For further information refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s most recent audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in its September 30, 2007 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Operating results for the three months ended December 31, 2007 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2008.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Principles of consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Sunair Services Corporation and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash and cash equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable consist of balances due from sales. The Company performs periodic credit evaluations of its customers and maintains an allowance for potential credit losses based on historical experience and other information available to management. As of December 31, 2007 and September 30, 2007, the Company established an allowance of $346,559 and $334,419 respectively.
Inventories
Inventories, which consist of raw materials, work-in-process, and finished goods, are stated at the lower of cost or market value, cost being determined using the first in, first out method. The Company records reserves for inventory shrinkage and obsolescence when considered necessary. As of December 31, 2007 and September 30, 2007, the Company established a reserve of $692,330 and $691,954, respectively.

Table of Contents

Property, Plant, and Equipment
Property, plant and equipment are carried at cost. Depreciation is provided over the estimated useful lives of the assets using both the straight-line and accelerated methods. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the life of the lease or the estimated useful life of the leasehold improvement. The estimated useful lives used to compute depreciation are as follows:
     
Leasehold improvements
  3 to 10 years
Machinery and equipment
  4 to 10 years
The cost of maintenance and repairs is charged to expense as incurred; renewals and betterments are capitalized. When properties are retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost of such properties and the related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts.
Software Costs
The Company capitalizes certain costs associated with software development in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 86 (FASB No. 86) “Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software to Be Sold, Leased, or Otherwise Marketed.” The Company amortizes software costs for periods of 5 to 10 years, the estimated useful life of the asset. As of December 31, 2007 and September 30, 2007, the remaining unamortized software costs amounted to $306,714 and $359,375, respectively. During 2007, the Company sold the outstanding shares of Percipia where most of the software costs were incurred.
Customer Lists
Customer lists are stated at fair value based on the discounted cash flows over the estimated life of the customer contracts and relationships. The Company obtained a valuation study at the time of acquisition of Middleton Pest Control, Inc. (“Middleton”) to determine the value and estimated life of customer lists purchased in order to assist management in determining an appropriate method in which to amortize the asset. The amortization life is based on historic analysis of customer relationships combined with estimates of expected future revenues from customer accounts. Middleton has applied the same valuation method on all of the subsequent acquisitions. Customer lists and intangible assets with estimable useful lives are amortized over their respective estimated useful lives to their estimated residual values, and reviewed for impairment in accordance with FASB Statement No. 144, Accounting for Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, (“FASB No. 144”).
The Company previously amortized customer lists on a straight-line basis over the weighted average expected life of the customer of 8 years. In the fourth quarter of 2007, the Company performed an extensive analysis to reassess the expected life of the customer lists and concluded that the expected life of the customer list should be adjusted from 8 years to 5 years. The change in the estimated useful life used to account for customer lists resulted from our ongoing analysis of all pertinent factors, including actual customer attrition data, demand, and competition. The pertinent factors have been influenced by management’s ongoing customer retention programs, as well as tactical and strategic initiatives to improve service delivery, customer satisfaction, and the credit worthiness of the subscriber customer base. In accordance with FASB Statement No. 154, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections, (“FASB No. 154”), the change in estimated useful life of customer lists is accounted for prospectively. Amortization expense for the three months ended December 31, 2007 and 2006 amounted to $933,432, and $412,344 respectively.
Goodwill
Goodwill represents the excess of costs over fair value of net assets of businesses acquired. Pursuant to FASB Statement No. 142 (“FASB No. 142”), Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, goodwill acquired in a purchase business combination and determined to have an indefinite useful life are not amortized, but instead tested for impairment at least annually in accordance with the provisions of FASB No. 142. The Company tests goodwill for impairment as of September 30 of each year and, more frequently, if a triggering event occurs utilizing a valuation study. Recoverability of goodwill is evaluated using a two-step process. The first step involves a comparison of the fair value of the reporting unit with its carrying amount. If a reporting unit’s carrying amount exceeds its fair value, the second step is performed. The second step involves a comparison of the implied fair value and carrying value of that reporting unit’s goodwill. To the extent that a reporting unit’s carrying amount exceeds the implied fair value of its goodwill, an impairment loss is recognized.

Table of Contents

In performing this assessment, management uses the income approach and the similar transactions method of the market approach to develop the fair value of the Reporting Unit in order to assess its potential impairment of goodwill. The income approach is based on a discounted cash flow model which relies on a number of factors, including operating results, business plans, economic projections and anticipated future cash flows. Rates used to discount future cash flows are dependent upon interest rates and the cost of capital at a point in time. The similar transactions method is a market approach methodology in which the fair value of a business is estimated by analyzing the prices at which companies similar to the subject, which are used as guidelines, have sold in controlling interest transactions (mergers and acquisitions). Target companies are compared to the subject company, and multiples paid in transactions are analyzed and applied to subject company data, resulting in value indications. Comparability can be affected by, among other things, the product or service produced or sold, geographic markets served, competitive position, profitability, growth expectations, size, risk perception, and capital structure. There are inherent uncertainties related to these factors and management’s judgment in applying them to the analysis of goodwill impairment. It is possible that assumptions underlying the impairment analysis will change in such a manner that impairment in value may occur in the future.
Based upon the most recent assessment as of September 30, 2007, the estimated fair value of the reporting unit exceeded its carrying amount by approximately $4.3 million. As of December 31, 2007, the Company was not aware of any items or events that would cause an adjustment to the recorded value of goodwill for impairment.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed of
The Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to future undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the assets exceed the fair value. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell. No asset impairment occurred during the three months ended December 31, 2007 and 2006.
Income (loss) per share
Basic earnings per share amounts are computed by dividing the net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share amounts are computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock, common stock equivalents, and stock options outstanding during the period. Potential shares of common stock and their effects on income were excluded from the diluted calculations if the effect was anti-dilutive.
Revenue Recognition
Service revenues are recorded and recognized when the service is completed. Sales revenues are recorded when products are shipped and title has passed to unaffiliated customers, and when collectability is reasonably assured. Installation revenues are considered earned at the time the project is completed. Maintenance contracts are recorded as unearned revenues at the time of collection and are recognized as income monthly over the term of the contract. Interest and dividends earned on investments are recorded when earned.

Leases
In accordance with FASB Statement No. 13, Accounting for Leases, (“FASB No. 13”), the Company performs a review of newly acquired leases to determine whether a lease should be treated as a capital or operating lease. Capital lease assets are capitalized and depreciated over the term of the initial lease. A liability equal to the present value of the aggregated lease payments is recorded utilizing the stated lease interest rate. If an interest rate is not stated the Company will determine an estimated cost of capital and utilize that rate to calculate the present value. If the lease has an increasing rate over time and/or is an operating lease, all leasehold incentives, rent holidays, or other incentives will be considered in determining if a deferred rent liability is required. Leasehold incentives are capitalized and depreciated over the initial term of the lease. At December 31, 2007 and September 30, 2007, the outstanding capital lease payable amounted to $15,513 and $16,353 respectively.
Advertising Costs
The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred. Advertising expenses totaled $565,812, and $607,680 for the three months ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The advertising expenditures for the three months ended December 31, 2006 related to Percipia, Inc. (“Percipia”) are included in loss from discontinued operations.
Foreign Currency Translation
Telecom’s functional currency is the British pound sterling, its local currency. Accordingly, balance sheet accounts are translated at exchange rates in effect at the end of the period and income statement accounts are translated at an average exchange rate for the period. Translation gains and losses are included as a separate component of stockholders’ equity as cumulative translation adjustments. Foreign currency transaction gains and losses are included in other income and expenses.
Comprehensive Income
Comprehensive income is comprised of net income and other comprehensive income. Other comprehensive income includes certain changes in equity that are excluded from net income. At December 31, 2007 and September 30, 2007, accumulated other comprehensive income was comprised of cumulative foreign currency translation adjustments.
Fair value of financial instruments
The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, approximate fair value due to the short-term maturities of these assets and liabilities. The fair market value of other financial instruments is provided by the use of quoted market prices and other appropriate valuation techniques, based on information available at year-end.
Concentration of credit risk
The Company at various times during the year maintains cash balances in excess of federally insured (FDIC) limits. The uninsured balances were $1,094,234 and $2,462,838 at December 31, 2007 and September 30, 2007, respectively.
Stock-based Compensation
Effective January 1, 2006, the Company adopted FASB Statement No.123 (revised 2004), “Share-Based Payments” (“FASB No. 123R”). The Company adopted FASB No. 123R using the modified prospective basis. Under this method, compensation costs recognized beginning January 1, 2006 included costs related to 1) all share-based payments granted prior to but not yet vested as of January 1, 2006, based on previously estimated grant-date fair values and 2) all share-based payments granted subsequent to December 31, 2005 based on the grant-date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of FASB No. 123R. The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to estimate the fair value of stock options granted subsequent to the date of adoption of FASB No. 123R. See Note 11 — Stock Options.

Income taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes using FASB Statement No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes (“FASB No. 109”), which requires recognition of deferred tax liabilities and assets for expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax liabilities and assets are determined based on the difference between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. A valuation allowance is recorded for deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. In July 2006, the FASB issued Interpretation No. (FIN) 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes” and FSP FIN 48-1, which amended certain provisions of FIN 48. FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in financial statements in accordance with FASB No. 109. FIN 48 prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. FIN 48 requires that the Company determine whether the benefits of the Company’s tax positions are more likely than not of being sustained upon audit based on the technical merits of the tax position. The provisions of FIN 48 also provide guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods and disclosure. The provisions of FIN 48 are effective as of the beginning of the 2008 calendar year, with the cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle recorded as an adjustment to opening retained earnings. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of FIN 48 will have on its future results of operations and financial position.
Reclassification
Certain reclassifications of amounts previously reported have been made to the accompanying consolidated financial statements in order to maintain consistency and comparability between periods presented.
In August 2007, the Company sold Percipia. For purposes of comparability, the results of these operations have been reclassified from continuing operations to discontinued operations for the three months ended December 31, 2006 presented in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations. See Note 12- Discontinued Operations.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141 (revised 2007) “Business Combinations” (“FASB No. 141(R)”). FASB No. 141(R) retains the fundamental requirements of the original pronouncement requiring that the purchase method be used for all business combinations. FASB No. 141(R) defines the acquirer as the entity that obtains control of one or more businesses in the business combination, establishes the acquisition date as the date that the acquirer achieves control and requires the acquirer to recognize the assets acquired, liabilities assumed and any non-controlling interest at their fair values as of the acquisition date. FASB No. 141(R) also requires that acquisition-related costs be recognized separately from the acquisition. FASB No. 141(R) is effective for the Company for fiscal 2010. The Company is currently assessing the impact of FASB No. 141(R) on its consolidated financial position and results of operations.
In December 2007, the FASB issued Statement No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements — an amendment of ARB No. 51 (“FASB No. 160”).” The objective of FASB No. 160 is to improve the relevance, comparability, and transparency of the financial information that a reporting entity provides in its consolidated financial statements by establishing accounting and reporting standards for the noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. This Statement applies to all entities that prepare consolidated financial statements, except not-for-profit organizations. FASB No. 160 amends ARB 51 to establish accounting and reporting standards for the noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. It also amends certain of ARB 51’s consolidation procedures for consistency with the requirements of FASB No. 141 (R). This Statement is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2008 (that is, January 1, 2009, for entities with calendar year-ends). Earlier adoption is prohibited. The effective date of this Statement is the same as that of the related Statement 141(R). FASB No. 160 will be effective for the Company’s fiscal 2010. This Statement shall be applied prospectively as of the beginning of the fiscal year in which this Statement is initially applied, except for the presentation and disclosure requirements. The presentation and disclosure requirements shall be applied retrospectively for all periods presented. The Company is currently assessing the impact of FASB No. 160 as its consolidated financial statements.

In February 2007, the FASB issued Statement No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities — including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115 (“FASB No. 159”). FASB No. 159 gives the Company the irrevocable option to carry most financial assets and liabilities at fair value, with changes in fair value recognized in earnings. FASB No. 159 is effective for the Company’s 2009 fiscal year, although early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact of FASB No. 159 on its consolidated financial statements.
In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (“FASB No. 157”). FASB No. 157 provides a common definition of fair value and establishes a framework to make the measurement of fair value in generally accepted accounting principles more consistent and comparable. FASB No. 157 also requires expanded disclosures to provide information about the extent to which fair value is used to measure assets and liabilities, the methods and assumptions used to measure fair value, and the effect of fair value measures on earnings. On December 14, 2007, the FASB issued proposed FASB Staff Position No. FAS 157-b, Effective Date of FASB No. 157 (“Proposed FSP). The Proposed FSP would amend FASB No. 157, to delay the effective date of FASB No. 157 for all nonfinanical assets and nonfinancial liabilities, except those that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis (that is, at least annually). The Proposed FSP defers the effective date of FASB No. 157 to fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008, and interim periods within those fiscal years for items within the scope of the Proposed FSP. FASB No. 157 will be effective for the Company’s 2010 fiscal year, although early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently assessing the potential effect of FASB No. 157 on its consolidated financial statements.

Fair Value
On January 1, 2006, the Company adopted the provisions of FASB No. 123R which requires the Company to recognize expense related to the fair value of stock-based compensation awards. The Company elected the modified prospective transition method as permitted by FASB No. 123R, under which stock-based compensation for the three months ended December 31, 2007 and 2006 is based on grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of FASB No. 123R and compensation expense for all stock-based compensation awards granted subsequent to January 1, 2006, as well as the unvested portion of previously granted awards that remained outstanding as of January 1, 2006 based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of FASB No. 123R. In addition, options granted to certain members of the board of directors as payment for Board Services recorded in accordance with FASB No. 123R and the issuance of restricted stock awards and stock units are also included in stock-based compensation for the three months ended December 31, 2007 and 2006. The Company recognizes compensation expense for restricted stock awards and restricted stock units on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the award. For the three months ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively, the Company recorded $142,012 and $216,984 of stock-based compensation expense which has been classified as selling, general and administrative expenses.

The fair value of stock-based awards was estimated using the Black-Scholes model, on the date of grant, with the following weighted-average assumptions:
         
    For the Three Months Ended December 31,
    2007   2006
Expected dividend yield
   
Expected price volatility
  61.75-70.07%   65.21-70.07%
Risk-free interest rate
  3.76-4.76%   3.76-4.61%
Expected life of options
  5-8.25 years   5-8.25 years
The Company’s computation of the expected volatility for the three months ended December 31, 2007 and 2006 is based primarily upon historical volatility and the expected term of the option. The expected term is based on the historical exercise experience under the share-based plans of the underlying award (including post-vesting employment termination behavior) and represents the period of time the share-based awards are expected to be outstanding. The interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield in effect at the time of grant for a period commensurate with the estimated expected life.
As of December 31, 2007, approximately $683,291 of total unrecognized compensation costs related to non-vested stock options is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.21 years.
12. Discontinued Operations
On August 1, 2007, the Companysold all the outstanding shares of Percipia, a wholly-owned subsidiary, in our Telephone Communications segment for approximately $4.0 million in cash, of which $750,000 was placed in an escrow account pending the resolution of certain tax matters.
On November 20, 2006, the Company closed a transaction to sell the real estate property associated with the previously sold high frequency radio business for $2.7 million in cash and a recognized gain in the amount of $2.2 million, $1.4 million net of income taxes.

14. Commitments and Contingencies
The Company leases office space under operating leases expiring in various years through 2012, and vehicles under operating leases expiring in various years through 2014. Certain leases provide for renewal options for periods from one to five years at their fair rental value at the time of renewal. In the normal course of business, operating leases are generally renewed or replaced by other leases. Rent expense and vehicle lease expense was $837,367 and $818,516 for the three months ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively.
Litigation
We are involved in litigation from time to time in the ordinary course of our business. Except for the litigation described below, we do not believe that any litigation in which we are currently involved, individually or in the aggregate, is material to our financial condition or results of operations.
In October 2007, the Company filed a lawsuit in the Circuit Court for the Ninth Judicial Circuit in the State of Florida against a number of former employees of Middleton for violation of their non-compete agreements. In addition, certain of these former employees pursued and hired away employees of Middleton which is also a violation of the existing employee non-compete agreements. The Company is seeking injunctive relief and damages. In October 2007, the Company also filed a lawsuit against a competitor for tortious interference as they hired these former employees knowing that they were in violation of the Company’s non-compete agreement. The lawsuits were recently filed and are in discovery stages. At this time it is too early to tell what the likelihood of the outcome will be as well as the amount of damages that the Company may be entitled to.

Company Overview
Sunair Services Corporation is a Florida corporation organized in 1956. We changed our corporate name from Sunair Electronics, Inc. to Sunair Services Corporation in November of 2005. Previously, we operated through two business segments: Telephone Communications and High Frequency Radio. In June 2005 with the acquisition of Middleton Pest Control, Inc. (“Middleton”) we embarked on a new strategy to become a leading regional provider of lawn and pest control services focusing mainly on residential customers.
In order to execute our strategy, we shifted our focus to the Lawn and Pest Control Services business segment, which resulted in a series of acquisitions and divestitures planned to enable us to shed our legacy businesses (Telephone Communications and High Frequency Radio) and grow our core business, lawn and pest control. We intend to divest ourselves of our remaining telecommunications subsidiary, Telecom FM Limited (“Telecom FM”), as soon as is practicable. However, we cannot assure you of the timing of such disposition, or the amount of net proceeds we will receive upon such disposition.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Generally our working capital needs are funded from operations and advances under our revolving line of credit. In the lawn care and pest control business segment customers are billed when service is rendered and payment is usually received in less than thirty (30) days. In the telecommunication business segment customers are billed when orders are shipped and payment is usually received in sixty (60) to one hundred twenty (120) days from the billing date. Materials related to telecommunications equipment production must be purchased significantly in advance of the billing date and payment terms with vendors generally range between thirty (30) and sixty (60) days.
As of December 31, 2007, our liquidity and capital resources included cash and equivalents of $1.4 million, a working capital deficit of less than $(0.1) million and $1.4 million was available under our revolving line of credit. As of September 30, 2007, our liquidity and capital resources included cash and equivalents of $2.8 million, a working capital deficit of $(0.9) million and $9.0 million available under our revolving line of credit.
Cash used in operating activities was $3.2 million for the three months ended December 31, 2007 as compared to cash used in operating activities of $1.3 million for the three months ended December 31, 2006. During the three months ended December 31, 2007 the primary sources of cash from operating activities were reductions in prepaid expenses of $0.5 million and inventory of $0.2 million. The primary uses of cash from operating activities for the three months ended December 31, 2007 were increase in accounts receivable of $1.9 million, reduction in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $0.8 million, reduction in customer deposits of $0.3 million, reduction in unearned revenue of $0.2 million and funding of cash loss of $0.8 million.
Net cash used in investing activities was $1.2 million during the three months ended December 31, 2007 as compared to cash provided by investing activities of $0.8 million for the three months ended December 31, 2006. During the three months ended December 31, 2007 the primary uses of cash from investing activities during the three months ended December 31, 2007 were cash paid for business acquisitions of $1.0 million and the purchase of property, plant and equipment of $0.2 million.
Net cash provided by financing activities was $3.1 million for the three months ended December 31, 2007 as compared to $0.4 million for the three months ended December 31, 2006. During the three months ended December 31, 2007 the primary source of cash from financing activities was proceeds from revolving line of credit of $3.1 million.
Cash flows from discontinued operations are included in the consolidated statement of cash flows within operating, investing and financing activities for the three months ended December 31, 2006.
Our uses of cash for fiscal 2008 will be principally for working capital needs, capital expenditures and debt service. We are not anticipating significant acquisition activity in fiscal 2008. We believe that we can fund our planned business activities from a combination of cash flows from operations and funds available under our revolving line of credit. On February 12, 2008, we amended our revolving line of credit terms and conditions (“the Second Amendment”) which included an extension of the maturity date to January 7, 2009 from October 1, 2008, reduced the capacity under the credit agreement from $16.0 million to $13.5 million effective February 12, 2008, to $12.75 million as of June 30, 2008 and to $11.75 million as of September 30, 2008. The Second Amendment also modified the financial covenants relating to consolidated EBITDA, the leverage ratio and the fixed charge coverage ratio, which amendments are effective as of December 31, 2007. Based on the revised financial covenants included in the Second Amendment, we were in compliance with the financial covenants in its revolving line of credit at December 31, 2007.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
See Note 2, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for a discussion of recent accounting pronouncements and their effect, if any, on the Company.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Market risk represents the risk of loss that may impact our financial position, results of operations or cash flows due to adverse changes in financial and commodity market prices and rates. We are exposed to market risk in the areas of changes in United States and international borrowing rates and changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Historically and as of December 31, 2007, we have not used derivative instruments or engaged in hedging activities to minimize market risk.
Interest Rate Risk
Our exposure to market risk resulting from changes in interest rates results from the variable rate of our credit facility with Wachovia Bank, National Association. An increase in interest rates would result in lower earnings and increased cash outflow and lower borrowing capacity. The interest rate on our credit facility is compounded daily based upon the LIBOR rate, plus a variable percentage based on our leverage ratio. The effect of each 1% increase in the LIBOR rate on our credit facility would result in an annual increase in interest expense of less than $0.1 million. We do not believe that near-term changes in the interest rates, if any, will result in a material effect on our financial condition or results of operation.
Exchange Rate Risk
We generally conduct business in U.S. dollars, and as a result, we have limited foreign currency exchange rate risk. However, we are exposed to foreign currency risk through our operations in the Telephone Communications business. Foreign currency risk arises from transactions denominated in a currency other than our functional currency and from foreign denominated revenue and profit translated into U.S. dollars. The primary foreign currency to which we are exposed is the British pound sterling, Telecom FM’s functional local currency. We do not currently use forward exchange contracts to limit potential losses in earnings or cash flows from foreign currency exchange rate movements. Our condensed consolidated balance sheets are translated at exchange rates in effect as of the balance sheet date and income statement accounts are translated at average exchange rates for the period of the income statement. Translation gains and losses are included as a separate component of stockholders’ equity as cumulative translation adjustments. Foreign currency transaction gains and losses are included in other income and expenses. The effect of an immediate change in foreign exchange rates would not have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures
(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As of the end of the period covered by this report, we conducted an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Interim Chief Financial Officer of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act). Based upon this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Interim Chief Financial Officer concluded that, at December 31, 2007, our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms.
(b) Changes in Internal Controls
There was no change in our internal controls or in other factors that could affect these controls during the quarter ended December 31, 2007 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
PART II
OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
We are involved in litigation from time to time in the ordinary course of our business. Except for the litigation described below, we do not believe that any litigation in which we are currently involved, individually or in the aggregate, is material to our financial condition or results of operations.
In October 2007, we filed a lawsuit in the Circuit Court for the Ninth Judicial Circuit in the State of Florida against a number of former employees of Middleton for violation of their non-compete agreements. In addition, certain of these former employees pursued and hired away employees of Middleton which is also a violation of the existing employee non-compete agreements. The Company is seeking injunctive relief and damages. In October 2007, we also filed a lawsuit against one of our competitors for tortuous interference as they hired these former employees knowing that they were in violation of our non-compete agreement. The lawsuits were recently filed and are in discovery stages. At this time it is too early to tell what the likelihood of the outcome will be as well as the amount of damages that we may be entitled to.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
You should refer to Item 1A, Risk Factors included in the September 30, 2007 Annual Report on Form 10-K for a comprehensive list of our risk factors. The following risk factor was included in this section as a recent change in the risk factor materialized. If the following risk factor or those incorporated by reference into this report materialize, our financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected and the value of our stock could decline. The risks and uncertainties described below and incorporated by reference into this report are those that we currently believe may materially affect us. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially and adversely affect our business operations.
Our shareholders may incur substantial dilution.
Our shareholders may incur substantial dilution of their percentage of ownership interests if our warrant holders exercise their warrants. As of February 11, 2008, we have warrants outstanding to purchase (i) 5 million shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $7.00 per share, will expire on February 7, 2010 and (ii) 1 million shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $6.30 per share, which will expire on January 27, 2011. Upon exercise of the warrants, up to an additional 6,000,000 shares of our common stock would be outstanding. In addition, the warrants issued to our warrant holders contain certain anti-dilution provisions that if triggered, would cause a decrease in the exercise price of the warrants and would result in more shares of common stock being issuable upon exercise of the warrants. The warrants also provide for other customary anti-dilution adjustments to the exercise price in the event of stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalizations, reorganizations, reclassifications, distributions and business combinations, as well as adjustments in the event of cash dividends and other specified distributions. Adjustments to the warrants pursuant to these provisions may result in significant dilution to the ownership interests of our existing shareholders and may adversely affect the market price of our common stock. The anti-dilution provisions may also limit our ability to obtain additional financing on terms favorable to us. On February 8, 2008, 5 million warrants to purchase 5 million shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $6.00 per share expired.
