All material inter-company accounts, transactions and profits have been
eliminated. In the opinion of management, these condensed consolidated financial
statements reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments)
that are necessary for a fair presentation of the results for and as of the
periods shown. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have
been prepared in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting
principles. However, certain information or footnote disclosures normally
included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The results of operations
for such periods are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for 2010
or for any future period. These financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the financial statements and related notes included in our
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009, filed
with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Reclassifications
Certain
amounts from the September 30, 2009 financial statements have been reclassified
to conform to the current year’s presentation.
Liquidity
and going concern
Our
consolidated condensed financial statements were prepared using accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America applicable to a
going concern, which contemplate the realization of assets and liquidation of
liabilities in the normal course of business. We have incurred a loss of
$433,377 for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and have respective
working capital and shareholders' deficits of $8,465,143 and $13,788,171 at
September 30, 2010.
We have
outstanding term loans aggregating $15,790,964, together with common stock
options and warrants, held by Laurus Master Fund, Ltd. (“Laurus”) and its
related entities. We do not currently have the ability to repay the notes in the
event of a demand by the holder. Furthermore, we granted a security interest to
Laurus and its related entities in substantially all of our assets and,
accordingly, in the event of any default under our agreements with Laurus and
its related entities, they could conceivably attempt to foreclose on our assets,
which could cause us to terminate our operations. As of September 30, 2010,
there were 14,688,983 shares of common stock of CVAS issuable upon the exercise
of warrants and 129,155 shares issuable upon the exercise of options which were
issued to Laurus, and its related entities, Erato Corporation, Valens Offshore
Fund, Valens U.S. Fund, LLC and PSource Structured Debt Limited. Additionally,
there were 49 shares of common stock of Cancable Holding issuable upon the
exercise of options and 20 shares of common stock of Iview Holding issuable upon
the exercise of options to Laurus and its related entities.
The
Company has introduced cost cutting initiatives within the Administration,
Project and Selling departments to improve efficiency within the Company and
also improve cash flow. The Company has also increased its rates for services
provided by AC Technical to improve gross margins. This is in line with our
competitors. Finally, the Company also expects to see the benefits of its
research and development efforts within the next 12 months as it starts to
introduce its own line of customized products to the industry. These products
and technologies are expected to improve gross margins. Management plans to seek
additional capital in the future to fund operations, growth and expansion,
including through additional equity or debt financing or credit facilities. The
Company has had early stage discussions with investors about potential
investment in the Company at a future date however no assurance can be made that
such financing would be available, and if available that it would be on terms
acceptable to us. In either case, the financing could have a negative impact on
our financial condition and our shareholders. Despite this, we believe that we
have adequate cash and borrowing capability under our credit facilities to
sustain our operations and continue as a going concern for a reasonable period
of time although there can be no assurance of this.
The
financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible
future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts
and classification of liabilities that may result from the possible inability of
the Company to continue as a going concern.
Inventory
Inventory
consists of materials and supplies and is stated at the lower of cost or market.
Cost is generally determined on the first in, first out basis. The inventory is
net of estimated obsolescence, and excess inventory based upon assumptions about
future demand and market conditions.
Earnings
(loss) per share
Basic
earnings (loss) per share (“EPS”) is computed using the weighted average number
of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS is computed using
the weighted average number of common and dilutive potential common shares
outstanding during the period. Dilutive potential common shares consist of
common stock issuable upon exercise of stock options and warrants and conversion
of debt using the treasury stock method. Adjustments to earnings per share
calculation include reversing interest related to the convertible debts and
changes in derivative instruments. During periods when losses are incurred
dilutive common shares are not considered in the EPS computations as their
effect would be anti-dilutive.
2. Deferred
Financing Costs, Net
Deferred
financing costs, net are associated with the Company’s term notes. For the nine
months ended September 30, 2010, the amortization of deferred financing cost was
approximately $129,295 (2009 - $120,537).

(2009-$253,238). Amortization for the next three years is expected to total
approximately $112,487.
4. Bank
Indebtedness
In 2008,
the Company established credit facilities with a Canadian chartered bank to
provide for borrowings by its subsidiaries, AC Technical and Cancable Inc. The
credit facilities for AC Technical and Cancable were $500,000 and $3,500,000
respectively and bear interest at the bank’s domestic prime rate plus 1.5% to
3.4% for Canadian dollar amounts. Interest is payable monthly. The facilities
are secured by an assignment of book debts, inventory, certain other assets and
life insurance. As at September 30, 2010, the interest rate of the Canadian
dollar amount was 4.0% to 5.9%. At September 30, 2010, the borrowings
outstanding under both facilities were $1,999,016 and the average borrowing
outstanding during the nine months ended September 30, 2010 was $1,979,500. The
Company banking facility agreements contain financial covenants pertaining to
maintenance of tangible net worth and debt service coverage ratio. In the event
of default, the bank could at its discretion cancel the facilities and demand
immediate repayment of all outstanding amounts.
In
January 2006, concurrently with the closing of the acquisition of Cancable Inc.,
the Company entered into a series of agreements with Laurus whereby Cancable
issued to Laurus a secured term note (the “Cancable Note”) in the amount of
$6,865,000 and Cancable Holding issued to Laurus a related option to purchase up
to 49 shares of common stock of Cancable Holding (up to 49% of the outstanding
shares of Cancable Holding) at a price of $0.01 per share (the “Option”). The
loan is secured by all of the assets of the Company and its
subsidiaries.
The
Cancable Note bears interest at the prime rate plus 1.75% with a minimum rate of
7%, and requires minimum monthly payments of $81,726 until the indebtedness is
paid in full except that the Company is not obligated, except upon an event of
default, to pay more than 25% of the original principal amount prior to December
31, 2011.
In
February 2006, the Company and its subsidiaries, Iview Holding and Iview DSI
entered into a series of agreements with Laurus pursuant to a refinancing
transaction whereby the Company issued to Laurus a secured term note (the
“Company Note”) in the amount of $8,250,000, Iview DSI issued to Laurus a
secured term note (the “Iview Note”) in the amount of $2,000,000, the Company
issued to Laurus a related warrant to purchase up to 2,411,003 shares of common
stock of the Company (up to 7.5% of the outstanding shares of the Company) at a
price of $0.01 per share (the “Warrant”) and Iview Holding issued to Laurus a
related option to purchase up to 20 shares of common stock of Iview Holding (up
to 20% of the outstanding shares of Iview Holding) at a price of $0.01 per share
(the “Option”). The loans are secured by all of the assets of the Company and
its subsidiaries. Simultaneously with the closing of this refinancing
transaction, the Company paid off the entire outstanding principal amount and
all obligations due to Laurus under a Secured Convertible Term Note, a Secured
Convertible Minimum Borrowing Note and a Secured Revolving Note, all dated
September 30, 2004 (collectively, the “2004 Notes”) and such 2004 Notes were
cancelled.
The
options held by Laurus to acquire 49% of Cancable Holding and 20% of Iview
Holding are accounted for as noncontrolling interests. Because the options have
not been exercised and because Cancable Holding and Iview Holding have incurred
losses, no noncontrolling interests have been recognized at September 30,
2010.
The
Company Note bears interest at the prime rate plus 2% with a minimum rate of 7%.
Interest accrued on the term note but was not payable until April 1, 2006.
Interest is calculated on the basis of a 360 day year. The minimum monthly
payment on the term note is $137,500 commencing March 1, 2007 to February 1,
2011, with a balance of $4,950,000 payable on the maturity date. Through
September 30, 2010, the Company has issued warrants to purchase up to 3,888,000
shares of common stock of the Company at prices from $0.05 to $2.84 per share to
defer until maturity the principal repayments that were due from March 1, 2007
to September 1, 2010.
The Iview
Note bears interest at the prime rate plus 2% with a minimum rate of 7%.
Interest is calculated on the basis of a 360 day year. The minimum monthly
payment on the term note is $8,333 through February 1, 2011, with the balance of
$1,600,000 payable on the maturity date. The Company is not obligated, except
upon an event of default, to pay more than 25% of the original principal amount
prior to February 13, 2011.
In June
2008, the Company and its subsidiary,
Cancable Inc., entered
into a financing transaction whereby the Company issued to Valens Offshore SPV
II, Corp. (“Valens Offshore”) and Valens U.S. SPV I, LLC (“Valens U.S.”) secured
term notes in the amount of $1,700,000 and $800,000, respectively (collectively,
the “Company Second Notes”). Valens Offshore and Valens U.S. are entities
related to Laurus. The Company also issued to Valens Offshore and Valens U.S.
warrants to purchase up to 1,333,333 and 627,451 shares, respectively, of common
stock of the Company at a price of $0.01 per share. The loans are secured by all
of the assets of the Company and all its subsidiaries.
Interest
on the term notes for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 was $1,170,575
(2009: $1,096,632).

8.
Shareholders’
(Deficit)
Options
In
conjunction with the issuance of the Cancable Note and Iview Notes in 2006, the
Company had granted Laurus options to purchase up to 49% of Cancable Holding
Corp. and 20% of Iview Holding Corp. The financial statements of Cancable
Holding Corp. and Iview Holding Corp. have negative equity on a stand alone
basis. At such time when these entities have positive equity and
generate net income, the Company will account for the options granted to Laurus
as non-controlling interests.
The
Company’s Stock Option Plan is intended to provide incentives for key employees,
directors, consultants and other individuals providing services to the Company
by encouraging their ownership of the common stock of the Company and to aid the
Company in retaining such key employees, directors, consultants and other
individuals upon whose efforts the Company’s success and future growth depends
and in attracting other such employees, directors, consultants and
individuals.
The Plan
is administered by the Board of Directors, or its Compensation
Committee. Under the Plan, options on a total of 4,000,000 shares of
common stock may be issued. Shares of common stock covered by options
which have terminated or expired prior to exercise are available for further
options under the Plan. The maximum aggregate number of
shares of Stock that may be issued under the Plan as “incentive stock options”
is 3,500,000 shares. No options may be granted under the Plan after
June 30, 2011; provided, however, that the Board of Directors may at any time
prior to that date amend the Plan.
Options
under the Plan may be granted to key employees of the Company, including
officers or directors of the Company, and to consultants and other individuals
providing services to the Company. Options may be granted to eligible
individuals whether or not they hold or have held options previously granted
under the Plan or otherwise granted or assumed by the Company. In
selecting individuals for options, the Committee may take into consideration any
factors it may deem relevant, including its estimate of the individual’s present
and potential contributions to the success of the Company.
The
Committee may, in its discretion, prescribe the terms and conditions of the
options to be granted under the Plan, which terms and conditions need not be the
same in each case, subject to the following:
a.
|
Option
Price. The price at which each share of common stock covered by
an option granted under the Plan may not be less than the market value per
share of the common stock on the date of grant of the
option. The date of the grant of an option shall be the date
specified by the Committee in its grant of the option, which date will
normally be the date the Committee determines to make such
grant.
|
b.
|
Option
Period. The period for exercise of an option shall in no event
be more than five years from the date of grant. Options may, in
the discretion of the Committee, be made exercisable in installments
during the option period.
|
c.
|
Exercise
of Options. For the purpose of assisting an Optionee to
exercise an option, the Company may make loans to the Optionee or
guarantee loans made by third parties to the Optionee, on such terms and
conditions as the Board of Directors may
authorize.
|
d.
|
Lock-Up
Period. Without the consent of the Company, an Optionee may not
sell more than fifty percent of the shares issued under the Plan for a
period of two years from the date that the Optionee exercises the option.
The Committee may also impose other terms and conditions, not inconsistent
with the terms of the Plan, on the grant or exercise of options, as it
deems advisable.
|
The fair
value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using the
Black-Scholes option valuation model, using the assumptions noted in the
following table. Expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of
the Company’s stock, and other factors. The Company uses historical data to
estimate employee termination within the valuation model. The Company has
assumed that the life of the options will be equal to one-half of the combined
vesting period and contractual life (i.e., that employees will exercise the
options at the midpoint between the vesting and expiry date of the options). The
risk-free rates used to value the options are based on the U.S. Treasury yield
curve in effect at the time of grant.
At
September 30, 2010, options to purchase 1,605,000 shares of common stock were
outstanding. These options vest ratably in annual installments, over the four
year period from the date of grant. As of September 30, 2010, there was $28,275
of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested share-based
compensation arrangements granted under the Plan. That cost is expected to be
recognized over a remaining weighted average period of 1.29 years. At September
30, 2010, 1,387,500 options were vested. The cost recognized for the nine months
period ended September 30, 2010 was $50,900 (2009: $10,813) which was recorded
as general and administrative expenses.

valuing the options issued, the following assumptions were used

As of
September 30, 2010
, the aggregate intrinsic value of all
stock options outstanding and expected to vest was approximately $
0.00
and the aggregate intrinsic value of
currently exercisable stock options was approximately $
0.00
. The
i
ntrinsic value of each option is the
difference between the fair market value of
the
common stock and the exercise price of
such option to the extent it is “in-the-money”. Aggregate
i
ntrinsic value represents the value that
would have been received by the holders of in-the-money options had they
exercised their options on the last trading day of the year and sold the
underlying shares at the closing stock price on such day. The
intrinsic value calculation is based on the $0.

closing stock price of
the
c

re were no

Since there were no options exercised
during the year ended December 31, 2009 or the nine months ended

Warrants
The
Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to value warrants issued to
non-employees, based on the market price of our common stock at the time the
warrants are issued. All outstanding warrants may be exercised by the holder at
any time. During the nine months ended September 30, 2010, in connection with
financing, the Company issued warrants to purchase 972,000 shares of common
stock. The fair value of the warrants of $84,934 was measured using the
Black-Scholes option pricing model using the following assumptions: risk free
interest rate of 1.08% to 2.20%, expected dividend yield of 0%, volatility of
140% to 150%, exercise prices of $0.05 to $0.12 and the life of the warrants 4
years.
As of
September 30, 2010, we had the following common stock warrants
outstanding:

of Operations
Comparison
of Three Month Period Ended September 30, 2010
to
Three Month Period Ended September 30, 2009
For
purposes of the following section, we compared the three month period ended
September 30, 2010 to the comparable period in 2009.
Sales
: Sales for the three months
ended September 30, 2010 decreased 1.5% to $11,157,000 from $11,322,400 for the
three months ended September 30, 2009. The decrease in revenue was
primarily due to the decrease in contract revenue of the AC Technical Segment to
$1,471,700 for the three month period ended September 30, 2010 from $2,039,600
for the corresponding period in 2009. The decrease was offset by the
increase in service revenue of the Cancable Segment to $9,393,300 for the three
month period ended September 30, 2010 from $8,889,600 for the corresponding
period in 2009.
(a)
Cancable Segment – This segment
includes, but is not
limited to, Cancable Inc., XL Digital Services, Inc. and 2141306 Ontario Inc.
(collectively, the “Cancable Group”). The
principal activity is provisioning the
deployment and servicing of broadband technologies in both residential and
commercial markets. The
services offered by the
Cancable Group
(e.g. n
etwork deployment, IT integration, and
support services
)
enable the cable television and
telecommunications industries to deliver a high quality broadband experience to
their customers. The total revenue from the Cancable segment was
$
9,393,300
for the three months ended
September
30, 2010, compared to $
8,889,600
for same period in 2009, representing
an increase of $
503,700
or
5.7
%. The increase in revenue was primarily
related to the increase in revenue generated from our customer Rogers Cable Inc.
Rogers Cable Inc. is Cancable Group’s largest customer and the revenue from this
customer for the three months ended
September
30, 2010 was $
6,441,900
or 68.
6
% of total Cancable revenue compared to
$
5,371,300
or
60.4
% for same period in 2009. Total revenue
generated in the United States for the three months ended
September
30, 2010 was $
1,776,459
compared to $
1,702,800
for same period in
2009.
(b) AC
Technical segment - Total revenue of
the
AC Technical segment was $
1,753,500
for the three months ended
September
30, 2010 compared to $
2,401,900
for the corresponding period in 2009.
The
de
crease in revenue primarily resulted
from the
de
crease in contract revenue to
$
1,471,700
for the three months ended
September
30, 2010 compared to $
2,039,600
for same period in 2009. The
service revenue was $
291,400
for the three months ended
September
30, 2010, compared to $
391,500
for same period in
2009.
Cost of
sales
: Cost of sales for the three months ended September 30,
2010 was $8,191,100 or 73.4% of revenues compared to $8,187,500 or 72.3% of
revenues for same period in 2009.
(a) Cancable
Segment – Cost of sales of this segment were $7,016,100 for the three months
ended September 30, 2010, compared to $6,920,200 for corresponding period in
2009, representing an increase of $95,900 or 1.4%. The balance is comprised
principally of labor expenses of $5,525,600, vehicle expenses of $617,800 and
material cost of $408,700. For the three months ended September 30,
2009, cost of sales was comprised principally of labor expenses of $5,390,900,
vehicle expenses of $504,200 and material cost of $516,700. The increase in cost
of sales was primarily due to the increase in revenue.
(b) AC
Technical Segment – Cost of sales of this segment were $1,155,700. The material
cost was $794,600 or 45.3% of the AC Technical revenue for the three months
ended September 30, 2010 compared to $873,200 or 36.4% of revenues in the same
period of fiscal 2009. The increase in percentage of material costs was
primarily a result of some contracts needing more material needs. The dollar
decrease is primarily attributable to the decrease in revenue.
On the other hand, the labor and
subcontractor cost
in
creased to $
344,900
or
19.7
% of AC Technical revenues for the three
months ended
September
30
, 20
10
compared to
$
347,000
or
14.4
% of AC Technical revenues for the
corresponding
period of fiscal 200
9
. The
dec
rease in labor and subcontractor cost
resulted primarily from the
decrease in revenue.
Project expenses

of fiscal 2010. Salaries and benefits to administrative staff were $532,800 for
the third quarter of fiscal 2010 compared to $784,700 for the corresponding
period of 2009. The decrease in general and administrative expenses was
primarily the result of cost reduction initiatives.
Depreciation
: Total
depreciation of property plant and equipment was $536,900 for the third quarter
of fiscal 2010 compared to $657,000 for the same period in 2009. The
decrease in the balance was primarily due to the disposals of property, plant
and equipment in 2009.
Amortization of intangible
assets
: Amortization of customer relationships and trade name was $57,700
for the three months ended September 30, 2010 compared to $86,500 for the same
period of fiscal 2009. The decrease was mainly due to the trade name
related to the acquisition in 2006 and 2007 being fully amortized.
Interest and other expenses
(income)

ended September 30, 2010 were $405,500 or 3.6% of revenues compared to interest
and other income of $134,200 or 1.2% of revenues for the same period in

comprised of net financing expenses of $560,000 or 5.0% of revenues compared to
$585,700 or 5.2% of revenues for the same period of 2009. The
interest due with respect to the Company’s credit facilities was $398,900 for
the three months ended September 30, 2010 compared to $376,300 for the same
period in 2009. Additionally, the foreign currency translation gain
for the quarter ended September 30, 2010 was $197,400 compared to a foreign
currency translation gain of $760,900 for the same period of 2009. The
fluctuation, which was related to foreign currency translation of term notes,
resulted because the Canadian dollar traded higher than the U.S. dollar in the
three months ended September 30, 2010 as compared to the same period of
2009.
Income
taxes
: No income taxes were paid and/or owed during the three
months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, which was mainly due to the Company’s
losses carried forward to offset all income generated by the Company. Because of
this and because we have fully reserved substantially all of our deferred income
tax assets, there was no provision and/or benefit for income taxes.
Net
Income/Loss
: Net income for the third quarter of fiscal 2010
was $633,300 compared to a net income of $720,400 for the same period in 2009.
The Company’s operating income was $1,038,900 for the three months ended
September 30, 2010 compared to $586,200 for the corresponding period of
2009. The increase in operating income for the third quarter of
fiscal 2010 was primarily attributable to the result of cost reduction
initiatives.

predominately by the continued growth in service revenue of the Cancable segment
to $25,326,400 for the nine month period ended 2010 from $24,038,100 for the
same period in 2009.
(a) Cancable

$173,300 for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 compared to $253,200 for
the same period of fiscal 2009. The decrease was mainly due to the
trade name acquired in 2006 and 2007 being fully amortized.
Interest and other expenses
(income)
: Interest and net other expenses for the nine months

for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 was $104,800 compared to a foreign
currency translation gain of $1,274,600 for the same period of 2009. The
fluctuation, which was related to foreign currency translation of term notes,
resulted because the Canadian dollar traded higher than the U.S. dollar in the
nine months ended September 30, 2010 as compared to the same period of
2009.
Income
taxes
: No income taxes were paid and/or owed during the nine
months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, which was mainly due to the Company’s
losses carried forward to offset all income generated by the Company.
Because
of this and because we have fully reserved substantially all of our deferred
income tax assets, there was no
provision and/or benefit for income
taxes.
Net
Income/Loss

2010 was $433,400 compared to a net loss of $883,300 for the same period in

September 30, 2010 compared to an operating loss of $270,900 for the same period
of 2009. This growth in operating income was primarily the result of cost
reduction initiatives.
Liquidity
and Capital Resources
Since our
inception, we have financed our operations through bank debt, loans and equity
from our principals, loans from third parties and funds generated by our
business. At September 30, 2010, we had $2,822,684 in cash. We believe that cash
from operations and our credit facilities with our banks will continue to be
adequate to satisfy our working capital needs for the next year as we do not
expect Laurus to demand acceleration of their loans. During the remaining
portion of fiscal year 2010, our primary objectives in managing liquidity and
cash flows will be to ensure financial flexibility to support growth and entry
into new markets by improving inventory management and accelerating the
collection of accounts receivable.
In
addition, we have introduced cost cutting initiatives within the Administration,
Project and Selling departments to improve efficiency and also to improve cash
flow. We have also increased our rates for services provided by AC
Technical to improve gross margins. This is in line with our competitors.
Finally, we expect to realize additional benefits from our research and
development efforts within the next 12 months as we start to introduce our own
line of customized products to the industry. These products and technologies are
expected to improve gross margins. We plan to seek additional capital
in the future to fund operations, growth and expansion including through
additional equity or debt financing or credit facilities. We have had early
stage discussions with investors about potential investment in our company at a
future date however no assurance can be made that such financing would be
available, and if available that it would be on terms acceptable to
us.
Net Cash Provided by
Operating Activities
. Net cash provided by operating
activities amounted to $1,694.000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2010.

$451,400, which included a $722,000 increase in accounts receivable, a $163,500
decrease in inventory, a $60,200 decrease in prepaid expenses, a $71,000
decrease in accounts payable, a $86,200 decrease in income tax receivable and a

Comparison of the
balance sheet as at September 30, 2010 to December 31, 2009
Accounts
Receivable
Our
accounts receivable decreased by approximately $94,400 compared to the balance
as at December 31, 2009. Accounts receivable of the Cancable segment was
$3,026,100 as at September 30, 2010 compared to $2,959,800 as at December 31,
2009. Accounts receivable of the AC Technical segment was $1,150,400
as at September 30, 2010 compared to $1,088,800 as at December 31,
2009. The fluctuation in balance was mainly due to the timing of
payments from our customers.
Inventory
Inventory
at September 30, 2010 was $639,500 compared to $789,000 as at December 31, 2009.
The inventory of the Cancable segment as at September 30, 2010 was $218,400
compared to $261,200 as at December 31, 2009. The inventory of
the AC Technical segment as at September 30, 2010 was $380,300 compared to

Accounts Payable and Accrued
Liabilities
Accounts
payable decreased by a minor amount to approximately $4,068,500 as at September
30, 2010 from $4,555,300 as at December 31, 2009.
Deferred
Income
Deferred
income increased to $99,800 as at September 30, 2010 compared to $84,500 as at
December 31, 2009. Deferred income primarily relates to payments associated with
contracts in which revenue is recognized on a percentage of completion
basis.
Net Cash Provided By (Used
in) Investing Activities
. Net cash used in investing
activities was $69,500 for the nine months ended September 30, 2010, compared to
net cash provided by investing activities of $134,900 for the nine months ended
September 30, 2009. The change was mainly due to a decline in proceeds received
from the sale of property and equipment of approximately $202,500 in 2009
compared to approximately $11,600 in 2010.
Net Cash Provided By
Financing Activities
. Net cash used in financing activities was
$1,204,200 for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 compared to $1,029,200
for the nine months ended September 30, 2009. The change was mainly because we
borrowed approximately $507,800 during the nine months ended September 30, 2009
under our line of credit and had net outflows of approximately $2,200 for
payments of such indebtedness in 2010. In addition, our capital lease repayments
during the nine months ended September 30, 2010 declined by approximately
$197,500 as payments under certain leases were completed by the end of the first
quarter of 2009.

To the
extent appropriate, the guidance in the above “Accounting Standards Codification
Updates” are already reflected in our condensed consolidated financial
statements and management does not anticipate that these accounting
pronouncements will have any future effect on our condensed consolidated
financial statements.
There
were no other accounting standards and interpretations recently issued by the
FASB, which are expected to a have a material impact on the Company's financial
position, results of operations or cash flows.

DISCUSSION
OF CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES
Critical
accounting estimates are those that management deems to be most important to the
portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations, and that require
management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, due to the need to
make estimates about the effects of matters that are inherently uncertain. We
have identified the following critical accounting estimates: accounts receivable
allowances, revenue, inventory, and financial instruments. See our Form 10-K for
the year ended December 31, 2009 for a discussion of our critical accounting
estimates.
CAUTIONARY
NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This
quarterly report contains forward-looking statements about our company that are
not historical facts but, rather, are statements about future expectations. When
used in this document, the words “anticipates,” “believes,” “expects,”
“intends,” “should” and similar expressions as they relate to us, or to our
management, are intended to identify forward-looking statements. However,
forward-looking statements in this document are based on management’s current
views and assumptions and may be influenced by factors that could cause actual
results, performance or events to be materially different from those projected.
These forward-looking statements are subject to numerous risks and
uncertainties. Important factors, some of which are beyond our control, could
cause actual results, performance or events to differ materially from those in
the forward-looking statements. These factors include impact of general economic
conditions in North America, changes in laws and regulations, fluctuation in
interest rates and access to capital markets.
Our
actual results or performance could differ materially from those expressed in,
or implied by, these forward-looking statements and, accordingly, we cannot
predict whether any of the events anticipated by the forward-looking statements
will transpire or occur, or if any of them do, what impact they will have on our
results of operations and financial condition.
For
further information about these and other risks, uncertainties and factors,
please review the disclosure included in Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year
ended December 31, 2009 under the caption “Risk Factors.”
You
should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements. Except as
otherwise required by federal securities laws, we undertake no obligation to
publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements or risk factors,
whether as a result of new information, future events, changed circumstances or
any other reason after the date of this quarterly report.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and
Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures
that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our
filings under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded,
processed, summarized and reported within the periods specified in the rules and
forms of the SEC. This information is accumulated to allow timely decisions
regarding required disclosure. As of September 30, 2010, the end of the period
covered by this quarterly report on Form 10Q, our management, including our
Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, assessed the effectiveness
of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such terms are defined under
rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934, as amended. Based on this assessment, our management concluded that our
disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end period covered
by this quarterly report.
Changes in Internal Control Over
Financial Reporting
There has not been any change in our
internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in
Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during our third
fiscal quarter of 2010 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to
materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
