Basis of presentation
|
|
|
|
These unaudited interim consolidated financial statements
have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information
and with instructions for Form 10-Q and by Article 8-03 of Regulation
S- X. Accordingly, they do not include all information and footnotes required
by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America
for a complete set of annual financial statements. Readers of these statements
should read the audited annual consolidated financial statements of the
Company filed on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008 in conjunction
therewith. Operating results for the periods presented are not necessarily
indicative of the results that will occur for the year ending December
31, 2009 or for any other interim period.
|
|
|
|
The financial information as at September 30, 2009 and
for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2009 and 2008
is unaudited; however, such financial information includes all adjustments,
consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments, which, in the opinion
of management, are necessary for the fair presentation of the financial
information in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States of America. The accompanying consolidated balance
sheet as of December 31, 2008 has been derived from the audited consolidated
balance sheet as of that date included in the Form 10-K.

New accounting pronouncements
|
|
|
|
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141R, Business
Combinations which changes how business acquisitions are accounted.
SFAS 141R, requires the acquiring entity in a business combination to
recognize all (and only) the assets acquired and all liabilities assumed
in the transaction and establishes the acquisition-date fair value as
the measurement objective for all assets acquired and liabilities assumed
in a business combination. Certain, provisions of this standard will,
among other things, impact the determination of acquisition-date fair
value of consideration paid in a business combination (including contingent
considerations); exclude transaction costs from acquisition accounting;
and change accounting practices for acquired contingencies, acquisition-related
restructuring costs, inprocess research and development, indemnification
assets and tax benefits. SFAS No. 141R was effective for business combinations
and adjustments to an acquired entitys deferred tax asset and liability
balances beginning January 1, 2009. Management has determined that the
adoption of SFAS No. 141R did not have an impact on its financial position
and results of operations.
|
|
|
|
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, Noncontrolling
Interests in Consolidated Financial Statement, an amendment of ARB No.
51, which establishes new standards governing the accounting for
and reporting of noncontrolling interests (NCI) in partially owned consolidated
subsidiaries and the loss of control of subsidiaries. Certain provisions
of this standard indicate, among other things, that NCIs (previously referred
to as minority interests) be treated as a separate component of equity,
not as a liability; that increases and decreases in the parents
ownership interest that leave control intact be treated as equity transactions,
rather than as step acquisitions or dilution gains or losses; and that
losses of a partially owned consolidated subsidiary be allocated to the
NCI even when such allocation might result in a deficit balance. This
standard also requires changes to certain presentation and disclosure
requirements. The provisions of the standard are to be applied to all
NCIs prospectively, except for the presentation and disclosure requirements,
which are to be applied retrospectively to all periods presented. SFAS
No. 160 was effective beginning January 1, 2009. Management has determined
that the adoption of SFAS No. 160 did not have an impact on its financial
position and results of operations.

New accounting pronouncements (contd
)
|
|
|
|
In April 2008, the FASB issued FSP No. FAS 142-3,
Determination of the Useful life of Intangible Assets, (FSP
FAS 142-3). FSP FAS 142-3 amends the factors that should be considered
in developing renewal or extension assumptions used to determine the useful
life of a recognized intangible asset under FASB Statement No. 142, Goodwill
and Other Intangible Assets, (SFAS No. 142) in order to improve
the consistency between the useful life of a recognized intangible asset
under SFAS No. 142 and the period of expected cash flows used to measure
the fair value of the asset under SFAS No. 141(R) and other GAAP. FSP
FAS 142-3 was effective beginning January 1, 2009. Management has determined
that the adoption of FSP FAS 142-3 did not have an impact on its financial
position and results of operations.
|
|
|
|
In April 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards
Board (FASB) issued authoritative guidance for estimating
the fair value of assets and liabilities when the volume and level of
activity associated with those assets and liabilities has decreased significantly.
The guidance also requires the disclosure of the inputs and valuation
technique(s) used to measure fair value and a discussion of changes in
valuation techniques and related inputs, if any, during the period. The
adoption of this statement did not have a material impact on the Companys
results of operations and financial position.
|
|
|
|
In June 2009, the FASB issued guidance on Subsequent
Events. This requires companies to recognize in the financial statements
the effects of subsequent events that provide additional evidence about
conditions that existed at the date of the balance sheet, including the
estimates inherent in the process of preparing financial statements. An
entity shall disclose the date through which subsequent events have been
evaluated, as well as whether that date is the date the financial statements
were issued. Companies are not permitted to recognize subsequent events
that provide evidence about conditions that did not exist at the date
of the balance sheet but arose after the balance sheet date and before
financial statements are issued. Some non recognized subsequent events
must be disclosed to keep the financial statements from being misleading.
For such events a company must disclose the nature of the event, an estimate
of its financial effect, or a statement that such an estimate cannot be
made. This Statement applies prospectively for interim or annual financial
periods ending after June 15, 2009. The adoption of FAS 165 did not have
a material impact on the Companys results of operations and financial
position. Please see note 13.

New accounting pronouncements (contd
)
|
|
|
|
In June 2009, the FASB issued The FASB Accounting
Standards Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting
Principles a replacement of FASB Statement No. 168. Upon
its adoption, the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (the Codification)
will become the source of authoritative GAAP recognized by the FASB to
be applied to nongovernmental entities. On the effective date, the Codification
will supersede all then-existing non-SEC accounting and reporting standards.
Following this, the FASB will not issue new accounting standards in the
form of FASB Statements, FASB Staff Positions, or Emerging Issues Task
Force abstracts. This will also modify the existing hierarchy of GAAP
to include only two levels authoritative and non-authoritative.
This is effective for financial statements issued for interim and annual
periods ending after September 15, 2009, and early adoption is not permitted.
The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on its financial
position, results of operations or cash flows.
|
|
|
|
Recent Accounting Guidance Not Yet Adopted
|
|
|
|
In October 2009, the FASB issued authoritative guidance
on revenue recognition that will become effective for us beginning July
1, 2010, with earlier adoption permitted. Under the new guidance on arrangements
that include software elements, tangible products that have software components
that are essential to the functionality of the tangible product will no
longer be within the scope of the software revenue recognition guidance,
and software- enabled products will now be subject to other relevant revenue
recognition guidance. Additionally, the FASB issued authoritative guidance
on revenue arrangements with multiple deliverables that are outside the
scope of the software revenue recognition guidance. Under the new guidance,
when vendor specific objective evidence or third party evidence for deliverables
in an arrangement cannot be determined, a best estimate of the selling
price is required to separate deliverables and allocate arrangement consideration
using the relative selling price method. The new guidance includes new
disclosure requirements on how the application of the relative selling
price method affects the timing and amount of revenue recognition. We
believe adoption of this new guidance will not have a material impact
on our financial statements.
|
|
|
|
In June 2009, the FASB issued authoritative guidance
on the consolidation of variable interest entities, which is effective
for us beginning July 1, 2010. The new guidance requires revised evaluations
of whether entities represent variable interest entities, ongoing assessments
of control over such entities, and additional disclosures for variable
interests. We believe adoption of this new guidance will not have a material
impact on our financial statements.

Bank indebtedness represents cheques written in excess
of funds on deposit of $4,329 (December 31, 2008 - $17,775) and
amounts drawn under a bank credit facility of $150,000 (December 31,
2008 - $40,000) available to a maximum of $500,000. Amounts outstanding
under the bank credit facility bear interest at the banks prime
lending rate plus 1.75% and are repayable on demand. The facility is secured
by substantially all of our assets under a general security agreement
and a pledge of personal property of a significant shareholder. The Company
is required to maintain a current ratio greater than 1.5:1, measured quarterly,
and a debt to tangible net worth ratio less than 1.5:1, measured annually,
under the terms of the demand facility agreement. For purposes of debt
covenant calculations, amounts due to stockholders are considered a component
of equity and not a liability. The Company is also allowed to draw on
the credit facility up to 75% of accounts receivable less than 90 days.
At September 30, 2009, the Company was in compliance with debt covenants.

Segment information
|
|
|
|
|
(a)
|
Operating segments:
|
|
|
|
|
|
The Company organizes its business into two reportable
segments: manufacturing and servicing. The manufacturing segment designs,
produces and sells intercom and door access control systems that utilize
telecommunications wiring to control access to buildings and other facilities
for security purposes. The servicing segment provides maintenance to these
intercom and other door access control systems.
|
|
|
|
|
|
The segments accounting policies are the same
as those described in Note 2 in the financial statements in the most recent
Form 10-K. Management evaluates performance based on profit or loss from
operations before income taxes not including nonrecurring gains and losses,
if any. Retail prices are used to report intersegment sales.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Information as to these reportable segments for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008 are as follows:

Item 2. Management Discussion
and Analysis or Plan of Operation
Results of Operations
Sales for the three months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008
were $1,478,348 and $1,299,280, respectively, an increase of $179,068 or 13.7% .
Sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008 were $3,838,918 and
$3,942,767, respectively, a decrease of $103,849 or 2.6% . MESH sales for the
three months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008 were $1,024,743 and $632,822,
respectively, an increase of $391,921 or 61.9% . Mesh sales for the nine months
ended September 30, 2009 and 2008 were $2,427,684 and $2,011,597, respectively,
an increase of $416,087 or 20.6% . MESH is a convergent technology developed by
Viscount that increases security at a reduced cost of hardware, cabling and
installation, and with simplified database management. Enterphone 2000 sales for
the three months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008 were $80,156 and $252,610,
respectively, a decrease of $172,454 or 68.2% . Enterphone sales for the nine
months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008 were $318,610 and $735,296, a decrease
of $416,686 or 56.6% . As an old technology, Enterphone sales have been dropping
for several years and negating much of our MESH growth. MESH EPX is the
replacement for our old Enterphone system. MESH EPX is the next generation of
Enterphone systems but with features that are compatible with high speed
internet and other newer technologies. With MESH EPX, we have been recovering
our lost Enterphone revenue while continuing to increase our MESH business.
Management believes that sales of the MESH product will
continue to represent an increasing proportion of total sales relative to sales
of our Enterphone products. For the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and
2008, MESH sales were 63.2% and 51.0%, respectively, of total sales.
We also provide Enterphone support and maintenance services
pursuant to service contracts that were assigned to us from Telus Corporation in
2003. Sales from the 1,587 existing service contracts continue to be steady. On
average, each service contract represents ongoing revenues of approximately $38
per month, inclusive of parts and labor. Typical customers include strata
management and building owners as well as various residential, business and
industrial users of Enterphone access control and security systems. During the
nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, customer service contracts and
new equipment sales generated aggregate sales revenues of $1,232,725 and
$1,291,045, respectively, a decrease of $58,320 or 4.5% . These sales included
MESH sales by the service division.
The intangible assets held by the Company are comprised
primarily of service contracts for our Enterphone 2000 product line. The number
of service agreements held by the Company was 1,587 at September 30, 2009, as
compared to 1,630 and 1,638 at December 31, 2008 and September 30, 2008,
respectively. During the three quarters of 2009, the Company performed a test
for impairment in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets (SFAS 142) and evaluated the
status of service agreements. Management determined that no charge for
impairment was required but the continuing reduction in the number of service
contracts held, indicated that the intangible asset should be deemed to have a
definitive life based on the provisions of SFAS 142. Accordingly, the Company
continued to amortize the cost of the service agreements on a straight-line
basis over an estimated useful life of 10 years, which became effective as of
April 1, 2005. At September 30, 2009, the cost of the service agreements, net of
accumulated amortization, was $114,907.
Cost of sales and services as a percentage of sales was 41.1%
and 46.0% for the three months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively.
Cost of sales and service for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008
was 43.0% and 42.8%, respectively. Cost of sales has increased slightly during
the nine months ended September 30, 2009, as compared to the nine months ended
September 30, 2008, due to the increased cost of materials. Management continues
to focus on controlling the input
3
costs by using multiple suppliers to ensure that the best and
most cost effective raw materials are used in all of our products.
Gross profit for the three months ended September 30, 2009 and
2008 was $870,645 and $701,643, respectively, an increase of $169,002 or 24.0% .
For the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, gross profit was
$2,187,873 and $2,255,987, respectively, a decrease of $68,114 or 3.0% .
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three
months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008 were $650,826 and $636,574,
respectively, an increase of $14,252 or 2.2% . Selling, general and
administrative expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008
were $1,771,724 and $2,092,984 respectively, a decrease of $321,260 or 15.3% .
The decrease during these two comparative periods was due to decreases in
variable costs such as advertising, tradeshow and various office expenses. For
the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, selling, general and
administrative expenses, as a percentage of sales, were 46.1% and 52.5%,
respectively.
Research and development costs for the three months ended
September 30, 2009 and 2008 were $71,854 and $78,994, respectively, a decrease
of $7,140 or 9.0% . Research and development costs for the nine months ended
September 30, 2009 and 2008 were $177,719 and $251,811, respectively, a decrease
of $74,092 or 29.4% . Research and development costs have decreased during these
two comparative periods, as more MESH project phases have been completed.
Net profit for the quarter ended September 30, 2009 was
$135,682 and net loss for the quarter ended September 30, 2008 was $29,308, an
increase in profitability of $164,990. Net profit for the nine months ended
September 30, 2009 was $194,506 and net loss for the nine months ended September
30, 2008 was $132,086, an increase in profitability of $326,592. The increase in
profitability during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009 was the
result of decreased variable costs such as tradeshow, traveling, and various
office expenses.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash as of September 30, 2009, as compared to December 31, 2008
was $246,414 and $255,172, respectively. Cash as of September 30, 2008 was
$124,773. We have a bank credit facility available for an operating loan of up
to a maximum of $500,000 at the prime lending rate plus 1.75% . Amounts drawn
are repayable on demand. At September 30, 2009, $154,329 was drawn on this
facility. The facility is secured by substantially all of our assets under a
general security agreement.
At September 30, 2009, working capital was $527,245, as
compared to a working capital of $301,036 at December 31, 2008. Working capital
has increased by $226,209. The current ratio at September 30, 2009 was 1.49 to
1.0, as compared with 1.28 to 1.0 at December 31, 2008.
The accounts receivable turnover ratio at September 30, 2009
was 51 days, as compared 61 days at December 31, 2008 and September 30, 2008.
The accounts receivable reserve was $334,838 at September 30, 2009, as compared
to $336,776 at December 31, 2008. The accounts receivable reserve has decreased
by $1,938 or 0.5%, since the year ended December 31, 2008. These two comparative
periods were consistent. Management continues to follow-up on customer accounts
to improve cash flow and to minimize bad debts. There had been no significant or
material business conditions that would warrant further increases to the reserve
at this time.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2009, there were
minimal capital expenditures.
4
To date, we have not invested in derivative securities or any
other financial instruments that involve a high level of complexity or risk. We
expect that in the future, any excess cash will continue to be invested in high
credit quality, interest-bearing securities.
We will likely require additional funds to support the
development and marketing of our new MESH product. There can be no assurance
that additional financing will be available on acceptable terms, if at all. If
adequate funds are not available, we may be unable to develop or enhance our
products, take advantage of future opportunities, respond to competitive
pressures, and may have to curtail operations.
There are no legal or practical restrictions on the ability to
transfer funds between parent and subsidiary companies.
We do not have any material commitments for capital
expenditures as of September 30, 2009.
There are no known trends or uncertainties that will have a
material impact on revenues.
Related Party Transactions
In February of 2008, Stephen Pineau, president of Viscount,
loaned the Company $100,000, of which $27,000 remains outstanding. The loan
bears interest at 9.5% per annum, is unsecured and has no fixed terms of
repayment.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
There were no new accounting standards issued during this
period ended September 30, 2009.
Item 4(T). Controls and Procedures
EVALUATION OF DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Our management, including our principal executive officer and
principal financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure
controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e)) as of
September 30, 2009. Based on that evaluation, our principal executive officer
and principal financial officer have concluded that as of September 30, 2009, we
have maintained effective disclosure controls and procedures in all material
respects, including those necessary to ensure that information required to be
disclosed in reports filed or submitted with the SEC (i) is recorded, processed,
and reported within the time periods specified by the SEC, and (ii) is
accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive
officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow for timely
decision regarding required disclosure.
There have been no changes in our internal control over
financial reporting that occurred during the last fiscal quarter that have
materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal
control over financial reporting.
