Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
 
This Form 10-K contains forward-looking statements including statements about the future of iSECUREtrac Corp.’s products and the industry, statements about future business plans and strategies, and most other statements that are not historical in nature.  In this Form 10-K, forward-looking statements are generally identified by the words “believes,” “intends,” “expects,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “plan,” “projected,” “contemplates,” “anticipates,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “potential,” “continue,” or similar terminology.  Readers of this Form 10-K should understand that a number of factors could cause the Company’s actual results to differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements contained herein.  Many of these factors are described in Item 7 Managements’ Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and under the heading “Risk Factors”.  Other factors discussed elsewhere in this report, in filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission or in materials incorporated herein or therein by reference may also affect the Company’s future financial condition and results of operations.
 
Item 1.  Business
 
General
 
As used in this report the terms “we”, “us”, “our”, “iSECUREtrac”, or the “Company” refer to iSECUREtrac Corp., a Delaware corporation that is the successor in interest to a Colorado corporation initially incorporated in 1983.
 
iSECUREtrac develops, markets, leases and services products that assist in “monitoring compliance and modifying behavior” of individuals who are under the supervision of the criminal justice system and social service agencies, primarily in the United States.
 
The Company’s principal sources of revenue are daily leasing of electronic monitoring equipment including access to the corresponding web-based monitoring software, and providing administrative, field and support services, generally charged on a per offender/per day basis.
 
Background
 
For more than a decade, the Company has been engaged in its current business of providing electronic monitoring products and services including its proprietary Global Positioning System (“GPS”) tracking systems and non-proprietary visual breath alcohol testing for individuals under community supervision with the objective of “monitoring compliance and modifying behavior.”
 
 In 1997, the Company introduced its first GPS tracking system -1600 series, followed by the 2000 Series (System 2150 and System 2250) in 2003, and the latest generation system – the System 5000 in the fourth quarter of 2007.
 
In addition, the Company offers products and services through third-party providers.  Automated-Voice-Notification was added in 2006; complementary, non-proprietary, GPS tracking systems were added in 2008; and biometric voice verification was added in 2009.
 
Market Overview
 
According to the Pew Public Safety Performance Project, the incarcerated population in the United States has reached 2.3 million and more than one in every 100 adults is now confined in an American jail or prison.  This growing number of incarcerated offenders is burdening states’ budgets with soaring costs.  Agencies are seeing increases in facilities, health care, geriatrics and overtime costs while at the same time seeing a lag in victim restitution, child support and tax payments as incarcerated persons lose their jobs and become a tax burden.
 
As significant as the incarcerated population may be it is the growth in those being monitored outside of prison by probation and parole departments that has skyrocketed.  Today more than 5 million adults – or one in every 45 adults - are subject to community corrections supervision.
 
1

 
The growth in both populations (incarcerated and community supervised) and the related growth in related costs is unsustainable.   The existing facilities simply can’t house the growing population and agencies at all levels are struggling to find funding as budgets are being cut.  Electronic monitoring systems offered by the Company (e.g. GPS, House Arrest, Voice Verification and Visual Breath Alcohol) are very logical and economical alternatives.
 
Electronic monitoring systems enable an agency to monitor, at a greater level of supervision, the activities of a growing number of probationers and parolees without having to allocate additional labor resources to such monitoring efforts.  Community supervision programs give corrections and law enforcement agencies more flexibility in solving budget-related problems.  Since public safety is maintained or improved by linking alternative sentencing programs with electronic monitoring, programs like work release become viable, cost-effective tools for today’s correctional system.
 
In summary, the use of products and services offered by iSECUREtrac offer four distinct advantages over incarceration:
 
 
(1)
the cost of managing an offender in the community with electronic monitoring is almost 85% less expensive than the cost of incarceration
 
 
(2)
electronic monitoring  reduces the public's tax burden by allowing the offender to work thereby providing the offender the opportunity to meet their financial obligations,
 
 
(3)
electronic monitoring  reduces prison and jail overcrowding
 
 
(4)
electronic monitoring helps to reduce the rate of recidivism (re-offense) when combined with regular rehabilitation/reintegration counseling.
 
Industry/Technology Advancements
 
The electronic monitoring market remains an emerging, early stage industry.   Accordingly, new technology is being developed and introduced at a rapid pace.  In general, the technological advancements of the new products are able to demand a higher price point.  However, the industry has historically demonstrated that in most instances, there remains a steady and consistent demand for the existing technology and products.

GPS Tracking Systems
 
GPS tracking systems enable law enforcement agencies to continuously monitor an individual’s location, and thereby compliance, with pre-determined terms.
 
Operated by the United States Department of Defense and provided free of charge, the Global Positioning System consists of at least 24 operational satellites that orbit the Earth every 12 hours.  Eight to twelve GPS satellites are visible from any point on Earth at any given moment in time.  A position fix can be acquired when a GPS receiver receives signals from at least three of these satellites.
 
Our GPS tracking products use this state-of-the-art positioning technology to monitor the movements of individuals under community supervision to a degree not previously possible or cost efficient.
 
The Company’s Series 2000 (System 2150 and System 2250) and System 5000 GPS systems are manufactured in the United States and consist of:
 
 
·
Personal Tracking Unit (PTU) that is carried by the offender when not in the charging base.  The PTU may include cellular communication capabilities.  The reception of the radio frequency (RF) signal from the ankle cuff indicates the cuff and PTU are in proximity. The absence of that RF signal indicates a possible violation.
 
 
·
An ankle cuff that is worn continuously by the offender. The cuff emits an RF signal to the PTU.
 
 
·
A charging base that re-charges the PTU battery and in some systems contains traditional land line communication capability.
 
Our GPS unit tracks an individual by collecting data points regarding their location and time, at intervals as short as every 10 seconds.   All data processing and compliance assessments take place in the PTU, a capability we call on-board intelligence.  When operating in an “active” mode, this feature provides officers with near real-time compliance reporting and potentially quicker response to violations by high risk offenders.
 
Our GPS systems offer:
 
 
·
Tracking units equipped with on-board intelligence allowing them to compute GPS locations and discern violation status without the assistance of a monitoring center or other secondary sources
 
 
·
Advanced circumvention sub-systems to identify, report and log attempts by the offender to tamper with the equipment or render it inoperable
 
 
·
The latest generation GPS chip sets for greater accuracy and sensitivity in areas that typically have weak GPS signals (e.g., urban canyons, terrain under dense foliage)
 
 
·
Secure, web-based management reporting through any Internet-ready device, anywhere in the world
 
 
·
Geo-fencing to control entrance and/or egress from geographically defined locations (e.g., home, work, spouse’s residence, elementary schools, etc.)
 
 
·
Automated voice notification with escalation to an unlimited number of parties including but not limited to supervising officers, law enforcement officials, judicial personnel and potential victims
 
 
·
Equipment designed and manufactured specifically for the corrections market that is hypoallergenic (ankle bracelet or cuff), tamper and shock resistant and water resistant or water proof (ankle bracelet or cuff)

·
Crime scene analysis (Crime Scene Inquiry) to assist agencies in identifying or eliminating potential suspects based upon their proximity to a specific crime location within a specified time period.
 
All of the Company’s GPS products collect data points regarding the individual’s time and location and provide the individual immediate feedback regarding compliance violations.  Depending on the specifications of the law enforcement or social services agency, the agency or monitoring center is notified of compliance violations based on the modes of operations outlined below:
 
 
·
Active GPS - uses on-board intelligence and a cellular communications network to report locations and violation status in near real time (Series 2000 and System 5000).  In addition, the Company’s System 5000 also offers the capability of reporting locations and violation status via a traditional land-line when the PTU is returned to the charging base.  This service is particularly useful in areas where cellular coverage is weak.
 
 
·
Passive GPS - uses the same on-board intelligence as the Active GPS unit, but reports the locations and violation status via a traditional land-line telephone only when the PTU is returned to the charging base (Series 2000 only)
 
House Arrest
 
House Arrest is a system that enables law enforcement agencies to verify an offender’s presence at a particular location (house, residence, work release facility, etc.).  Equipment and features of the iSECUREtrac House Arrest System include:
 
 
·
The ability to move from House Arrest to Active or Passive GPS remotely with the flip of a switch
 
 
·
A hypoallergenic and water proof ankle bracelet or cuff worn continuously by the offender which is equipped with tamper-detecting sub-systems and a radio frequency (RF) transmitter
 
 
·
A shock resistant monitoring base with enhanced signal reception to ensure superior signal monitoring at a range of distances
 
 
·
Reporting through a single, secure, web-based platform utilizing common management software for monitoring offenders on House Arrest, Active or Passive GPS
 
The agency can set a schedule for each offender corresponding to the rules of release.  For example, the offender must be at home between 6:00 p.m. and 7:00 a.m. every day.  Offender deviation from the schedule results in a violation notification sent to the agency. If the offender takes off the ankle bracelet or tampers with it, it sends out a unique signal alerting the monitoring base of the violation.  The base then communicates with the monitoring center which, in turn, automatically alerts the appropriate authorities.
 
Visual Breath Alcohol Testing
 
Our breath alcohol monitoring system enables an offender’s breath alcohol levels to be tested remotely and at the offender’s residence.  The system calls the offender on a scheduled, random, or on-demand basis, giving him clear instructions.  The offender blows into a drinking straw inserted in the HomeStation while a camera on the unit photographs the offender.  Breath Alcohol Test data and photographs are sent electronically to our data center.  Our personnel confirm the offender’s identity by comparing the event verification photo with original reference picture provided by the agency.  Deviation from program parameters, as defined by the agency, results in monitoring center staff contacting appropriate agency personnel.
 
Advantages of the iSECUREtrac Alcohol Testing System include:
 
 
·
In-home testing of individuals who may not have convenient access to a central testing facility
 
 
·
A proven alcohol testing methodology that yields court admissible evidence
 
4

 
 
·
The ability to customize a testing schedule (fixed, random or on-demand) to fit an individual’s supervision/corrections plan
 
 
·
The use of a time-tested reliable system designed to meet agency program parameters and budget
 
Many agency programs use a combination of iSECUREtrac systems to better monitor compliance and shape more socially responsible behavior.  For example, it is not unusual for individuals accused or convicted of domestic violence to be supervised with both active GPS and remote alcohol monitoring.
 
BioMetric Voice Verification
 
 In 2009, the Company became an independent distributor of the voice biometrics speaker verification technology of ShadowTrack Technologies, Inc. ® ShadowTrack Technologies, Inc offers an interactive voice response system coupled with biometric authentication technology which is integrated into iSECUREtrac’s proprietary web-based platform tracNET24.
 
Supplemental Monitoring Center Services
 
To effect a more seamless integration with agency protocols and programs, iSECUREtrac provides supplemental services.  These optional services include:
 
 
·
Direct Monitoring Center Intervention in which iSECUREtrac will attempt to resolve common compliance issues through direct contact with the monitored individual.  If iSECUREtrac cannot resolve the issue, the situation is escalated in accordance with agency protocols.
 
 
·
Equipment Install and Removal frees agents from the task of fitting their clients and retrieving the equipment at the end of the program.
 
 
·
Automated Voice Notification provides voice alerts to officers in addition to text, pager and email notifications when those individuals under community supervision violate the terms of their release. These automated voice alerts can be customized by offender, violation and content. Voice messages can be automatically and simultaneously sent to a virtually unlimited number of recipients including potential victims.
 
 
·
On-Site Inventory Management provides precise control and safeguarding of equipment.  An on-site iSECUREtrac administrator maintains accurate inventory records including data pertaining to equipment receipt, the movement of equipment within and between locations and inventory assignments that match equipment serial numbers with client case numbers.
 
 
·
Extended Training includes follow-up training and refresher courses to ensure agents, officers and supervisors are comfortable with the operation of the equipment and proficient in reading and interpreting electronic monitoring reports.
 
 
·
Program Development and Consulting can help fine tune protocols and procedures to reduce program “noise”, annoyance alerts and unnecessary data.
 
 
·
Financial Services and Administration provides agencies several options in the financial administration of community supervision programs.  For example, iSECUREtrac provides client billing services in which the offender/client is directly invoiced by iSECUREtrac for the cost of their electronic supervision.
 
 
·
Day Reporting Services includes the provision by iSECUREtrac of a reporting center and staff to effectively supervise release compliance by those individuals under community supervision.
 
Web-Based Software/System Interface (tracNET24)
 
Our web-based software/system interface, known as tracNET24, is provided to end-user agencies through the Internet.  Probation or corrections officers with a secure log-in can access the system and know where his or her clients have been over any given time period.  With GPS monitoring, the officer can create or modify a schedule of locations where the offender must be at certain times of the day, week or month (e.g., a place of work, medical appointments, counseling appointments, meetings with the probation officer, etc.).  He/she merely enters a drop down menu for the schedule and either enters an address or points to a spot on the map and specifies a radius.  He/she thereby creates “inclusion zones” for the offender.  Similarly, the officer can create “exclusion zones” (e.g., schools, home of an ex-spouse, etc.).  Once the parameters are entered, the officer clicks “synchronize with Personal Tracking Unit” which causes the scheduling and zone information to be downloaded to the tracking unit.

Features of iSECUREtrac’s proprietary reporting and management software include but are not limited to:
 
 
·
The ability to establish boundaries or geo-fences via “inclusion” and “exclusion” zones, either for individual clients or entire caseload populations
 
 
·
The flexibility to change the content, delivery method and timing of alert notifications to best fit agency needs
 
 
·
Access to all reports and key events pertaining to monitored individuals through a secure, web-based program
 
 
·
Utilization of Microsoft’s Virtual Earth® as a mapping system overlay as well as recognizable and easy-to-read names of countries, states, counties, cities, municipalities, landmarks, points of interest, and street names
 
 
·
The ability to present mapping and monitoring information for all enrolled clients in the vicinity of a crime at the time the crime was committed, enabling the officer to research multiple clients simultaneously
 
Customers
 
Our principal customers are federal, state, county, and municipal law enforcement and corrections agencies and not-for-profit agencies in the United States.  Our customers also include social service agencies dealing with curbing juvenile delinquency and domestic violence/abuse.
 
Sales and Distribution Channels
 
The Company's markets its products and services through two methods: through direct contracts with state, local and county correction agencies and not-for-profit agencies or through resellers who have direct relationships with those same agencies and other end users of our products who integrate iSECUREtrac’s systems with their own localized install and removal services or case management services.

 
Direct contracts with the state, county or local agencies - These contracts are generally won through the competitive bid processes as required by the particular state, county or local procurement laws.   The length of contracts vary and range from one year to five years, including renewal options and typically include cancellation clauses with 30 to 60 days notice.  In general, contracts do not specify a minimum or maximum number of units.

 
Resellers - These contracts are won through direct solicitation to the reseller.  They generally have no stated expiration or automatically renew on a month to month basis with cancellation clauses of 30 to 60 days notice.
 
Competition
 
The Company competes for GPS-based offender monitoring with a number of different companies, including:
 
 
·
G4S a subsidiary of Group 4 Securicor
 
·
Omnilink Systems
 
·
ProTech Monitoring, Inc.
 
·
BI Incorporated
 
·
Satellite Tracking of People, LLC
 
·
SecureAlert

Neither the Company nor any of these competitors has attained a dominant market position, however, several of the Company’s principal competitors have access to financial, technical, marketing, distribution and procurement resources that are greater than those of the Company.
 
 In addition, there are several other companies that use GPS, electronic mapping and Internet technologies to provide tracking and monitoring products and services.  The markets served by these companies include vehicle and rail car tracking, vehicle fleet management, container tracking as well as cell phones and 911 emergency response services.  While the companies serving these markets do not currently sell products or services to the corrections and social services markets, these companies or others may enter this market in the future.
 
Seasonality
 
The Company has observed that contract awards and the rollout of new programs is noticeably slower in the three months ended June 30th  - which negatively impacts the revenue growth opportunities for the three months ended September 30th.   We believe this slowdown in the award and roll-out of new programs is the result of  uncertainty surrounding agency budgets in the months leading up to the new fiscal year which begins July 1.  In recent years, many agencies have been unable to finalize budgets until well into the new fiscal year.
 
In addition, the lack of availability of program decision makers, judges who sentence offenders, program managers during the traditional United States vacation months of May, June and July and August also impact our customers’ usage of the Company’s equipment and as such also impacts revenue for the three months ended September 30th .
 
Principal Suppliers
 
The Company’s products are manufactured in the United States by Altron Inc. of Anoka, Minnesota, an ISO-9002 qualified electronics manufacturer in accordance with manufacturing specifications set by the Company.
 
Principal Customers
 
For the year ended December 31, 2009, the Company had one customer, the Office of the Commissioner of Probation of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, which accounted for 18.79% of its total revenues for the year.  The receivable balance for this customer at December 31, 2009 was $178,792.

Item 1A.  Risk Factors
 
The Company’s business and financial condition are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond the control of the Company.  These risks and uncertainties include the following:
 
The current economic downturn could adversely impact our future revenue.
 
Our revenues are primarily derived from contracts with state, local and county government agencies in the United States.  The budgets of many of these government agencies have been, or are expected to be, negatively impacted by the current economic downturn.  As a result, the amount spent by the Company’s current clients on equipment and services supplied by the Company may be reduced or grow at rates slower than anticipated and it may be more difficult to attract additional government clients for the Company’s equipment and services.  As a result, our ability to maintain or increase our revenues may be negatively affected.
 
We have incurred significant losses and expect losses to continue.
 
Our revenues have not been sufficient to cover our cost of operations and other expenses, and we have yet to establish profitable operations.  We incurred net losses of $1,923,000 and $4,601,000 for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 respectively.   As a result, on December 31, 2009, the Company is reporting an accumulated deficit of $78,839,000.  There is no assurance that we will be able to increase our revenues or manage our operating expenses so that our revenues will be sufficient to cover our operating expenses or that we will achieve profitability in the future.

We have incurred a substantial amount of secured debt and may not have enough cash to repay it at maturity.
 
We have borrowed a total of $11,877,000 under a Credit and Security Agreement with Crestpark LP, Inc., an affiliate of our controlling shareholder.  The entire principal of this loan, plus an estimated $2,964,000 of accrued interest, will be due and payable on January 1, 2012.  Additional borrowings from Crestpark LP, Inc. include $280,000 under a separate equipment term loan agreement and $350,000 under a separate revolving credit agreement both of which are due and payable January 1, 2012.   The borrowings under these credit facilities , excluding the revolving credit agreement, are secured by a first priority security interest in all of the assets of the Company except that Lender’s security interest in certain monitoring equipment is subordinate to the interest of AHK Leasing LLC.    The borrowings under the revolving credit agreement are unsecured.  To the extent that the Company is not able to retain sufficient cash flow from operations to repay principal and interest on these loans,   we will need to refinance the loans through additional debt or equity financings.  There is no assurance that the Company will be able to generate sufficient cash flow from operations to service these loans and there is no assurance that we will be able to refinance them or otherwise raise capital in order to repay all amounts that will be due and payable on the loans.  If we cannot repay all principal and interest on the loans as due, we will be subject to all of the remedies available to the lender upon default, including foreclosure of virtually all of our assets.  It is unlikely that the holders of our common stock would recover any of their investment if that were to occur.
 
Markets for our products and services may develop slowly.
 
The long-term financial viability of our company depends on our ability to attract additional customers for our GPS tracking system in order to increase revenues.  There are many factors that affect the demand for our products and services that we cannot control.  In particular, we sell our products to governmental agencies, such as state corrections departments.  Accordingly, the acquisition and continued use of our products by these types of customers is generally subject to legislative appropriation of funds which is subject to budgetary and political considerations that change over time.  Adoption of our GPS tracking system may represent a significant expenditure by these types of customers which often face restrictive budgetary constraints.  In addition, contracts with governmental agencies are generally subject to a competitive bid process which is often time consuming and does not assure that we will be successful in selling our products and services or that we will be able to do so at prices that are economically beneficial for us.  In addition, our industry is relatively new and many of our target customers are only now becoming aware of our products and services and the possible advantages they may provide.  As a result, there is often a long sales cycle involved with sales of our products and services.  Due to these market factors, the demand for GPS tracking systems is difficult to forecast and may develop slowly or sporadically.  Accordingly, we may not be able to commercialize our products on the scale necessary to achieve profitability.
 
We face significant competition and this may make it difficult to achieve profitability.
 
We compete with a number of other companies that offer GPS solutions for offender tracking.  In addition, many companies use GPS, electronic mapping and Internet technologies to provide tracking and monitoring products and services in other markets such as vehicle and rail car tracking, vehicle fleet management, container tracking and emergency response services.  Companies serving these other markets may enter the offender tracking market in the future.  Some of the companies with which we currently compete, or may compete against in the future, may have access to greater financial, technical, marketing, distribution and procurement resources than we have.  There can be no assurance that we will be able to continue to successfully compete in our market.  Accordingly, we may not be able to commercialize our products on the scale necessary to achieve profitability.

Our technology may become obsolete which could materially adversely affect our ability to sell our products and services.
 
If our technology, products and services become obsolete, our business operations would be materially adversely affected.  The market in which we compete is characterized by technological change, evolving industry standards, introductions of new products, and changes in customer demands that can render existing products obsolete and unmarketable.  We must continuously improve our product as the market demands smaller, lighter and more versatile PTUs.  Faster and more accurate mapping software may make the mapping software currently used in our tracNET24 application obsolete.  Future releases of Windows may also compel us to upgrade our application software.  Our current application servers will require continuous upgrading with newer and faster models or our technology will become obsolete.  Our future success will depend upon our ability to address the increasingly sophisticated needs of our customers by supporting existing and emerging hardware, software, database, and networking platforms and by developing and introducing enhancements to our existing products and new products on a timely basis that keep pace with technological developments, evolving industry standards, and changing customer requirements.  Accordingly, we have and expect to continue to incur significant research and development expenses in the future.
 
We rely on third party vendors to manufacture our products and if these vendors are unable to timely supply us with required components our business will be materially adversely affected.
 
While we acquire the components used in our products from various vendors, we currently rely on a single electronics manufacturer, Altron, Inc. to manufacture most of our PTUs.  In addition we have only one provider of ankle cuffs for each of the GPS tracking systems we offer.  We have not qualified or contracted with other manufacturers for our PTUs or ankle cuffs.  Accordingly, if our vendors encounter difficulties with meeting our demand, alternative components may not be available quickly enough to avoid delaying production and shipment of customer orders.  Any such delays may hamper our ability to service existing customers or market our products and services to new customers.  Also, if the agreements with our current providers are terminated or expire, our search for additional or replacement providers could result in significant delays, added expense and our inability to maintain or expand our customer base.
 
We face the risk of systems interruptions and capacity constraints, possibly resulting in adverse publicity, revenue loss and erosion of customer trust.
 
The satisfactory performance, reliability and availability of our network infrastructure are critical to our reputation and our ability to attract and retain customers and to maintain adequate customer service levels.  We may experience temporary service interruptions for a variety of reasons, including telecommunications or power failures, fire, water damage, vandalism, computer bugs or viruses or hardware failures.  We may not be able to correct a problem in a timely manner.  Any service interruption that results in the unavailability of our system or reduces its capacity could result in real or perceived public safety issues that may affect customer confidence in our services and result in negative publicity that could cause us to lose customer accounts or fail to obtain new accounts.  Any inability to scale our systems may cause unanticipated system disruptions, slower response times, degradation in levels of customer service, or impaired quality and speed of transaction processing.  We are not certain that we will be able to project the rate or timing of increases, if any, in the use of our services to permit us to upgrade and expand our systems effectively or to integrate smoothly any newly developed or purchased modules with our existing systems.
 
If we were denied access to GPS technology, our business will be materially adversely affected.
 
Our services rely on signals from GPS satellites built and maintained by the U.S. Department of Defense.  GPS satellites and their ground support systems are subject to electronic and mechanical failures and sabotage.  If one or more satellites malfunction, there could be a substantial delay before they are repaired or replaced, if at all, and our services may cease and customer satisfaction would suffer.  In addition, the U.S. government could decide not to continue to operate and maintain Global Positioning System satellites over a long period of time or to charge for the use of the Global Positioning System.  Furthermore, because of increasing commercial applications of the Global Positioning System, other U.S. government agencies may become involved in the administration or the regulation of the use of Global Positioning System signals in the future.  If the foregoing factors affect the availability and pricing of Global Positioning System technology, our business will suffer.  Global Positioning System technology is also dependent on the use of radio frequency spectrum.  An international organization known as the International Telecommunications Union controls the assignment of spectrum.  If the International Telecommunications Union reallocates radio frequency spectrum, our services may become less useful or less reliable.  This would, in turn, harm our business.  In addition, emissions from mobile satellites and other equipment using other frequency bands may adversely affect the utility and reliability of our services.

If we are not able to protect our intellectual property rights, our business may be materially adversely affected.
 
In order to protect the technology and other intellectual property underlying our products and services, we rely on a combination of patents, license agreements, copyrights, trade secrets, and trademarks.  We also rely on confidentiality procedures and contractual provisions to protect our intellectual property rights.  There can be no assurance that any of the measures we take to protect our intellectual property rights will be adequate.  There is a risk that any patents issued to us may be invalidated, circumvented, or challenged; that the rights granted thereunder will not provide competitive advantages to us; or that none of our future patent applications will be issued with the scope of protection sought by us, if at all.  Furthermore, there is a risk that others may develop technologies that are similar or superior to our technology or design around any patents issued to us.  Despite our efforts to protect our intellectual property rights, unauthorized parties may attempt to copy aspects of our products or to obtain and use information that we regard as proprietary.
 
The protection of our intellectual property in foreign countries is uncertain.
 
We have not registered our patents with most foreign countries and may have no legal recourse to proceed against entities in such countries that choose to copy our hardware and/or software.  In addition, the laws of some foreign countries do not protect proprietary information rights as fully as do the laws of the United States.
 
We depend on licensed technologies and may need to obtain additional licenses in the future to remain competitive.
 
We have been granted a nonexclusive software license from a technology company that has designed GPS chip sets and software solutions that allow us to embed GPS technology into our products.  This license has an indefinite term; however, it may be terminated if the licensor loses any of its rights to the software products encompassed therein or by either party upon thirty (30) days written notice in the event of a material breach of the license by the other party.  Termination of this license could have a material adverse effect on our business.  In addition, we may need to obtain licenses to additional technologies in the future in order to keep our products competitive.  If we fail to license or otherwise acquire necessary technologies, we may not be able to develop new products or services needed to remain competitive.
 
Our products could infringe on the intellectual property rights of others.
 
There are other U.S. patents and patent applications submitted for technologies in, or related to, our principal area of business, and it is possible that foreign patents are also in existence or have been applied for by others.  As a result, any application or exploitation of our technology could infringe on patents or proprietary rights of others and any licenses required as a result of such infringement might not be available on commercially reasonable terms, if at all.  This may lead others to assert patent infringement or other intellectual property claims against us.
 
We may not be able to effectively manage the growth of our company.
 
If our business grows in the manner that we currently project, we must continue to implement and improve our operational, financial and management information systems and expand, train and manage our employees.  We may not have made adequate allowances for the costs and risks associated with this expansion, and our systems, procedures or controls may not be adequate to support the growth of our operations.  Our failure to manage growth effectively could cause us to incur substantial additional costs, lose opportunities to generate sales or impair our ability to maintain our customers.

Risks Relating to the Ownership of Our Common Stock
 
The price for our common stock is volatile and may drop.
 
The trading price for our common stock has fluctuated significantly over recent years.  The volatility in the price of our stock is attributable to a number of factors, not all of which relate to our operating results and financial position.  Nevertheless, continued volatility in the market price for our stock should be expected and we cannot assure you that the price of our stock will increase in the future.  Fluctuations or further declines in the price of our stock may affect our ability to sell shares of our stock and to raise capital through future equity financing.
 
We may issue a large number of shares to holders of preferred stock and warrants and the issuance and sale of these shares may depress the market price of our common stock.
 
We currently have warrants outstanding which entitle the holders thereof to acquire 2,227,087 shares of common stock.   An additional 6,287,045 shares of our common stock are issuable upon exercise of warrants to be issued upon exchange of our Series C 8% Exchangeable Preferred Stock (“Series C Preferred Stock”).  In addition, the holder of our Series C Preferred Stock may convert this Series C Preferred Stock into 4,782,609 shares of common stock. In addition 2,188,700 shares of our common stock are issuable at December 31, 2009 in connection with stock options granted to employees. The issuance and sale of these shares is likely to result in substantial dilution to the proportionate equity interest and voting power of holders of our common stock.  The sale of these shares also has potential to cause significant downward pressure on the price of our common stock.  This is particularly the case if the shares being placed into the market exceed the market's ability to absorb the increased stock.  Such an event could place further downward pressure on the price of our common stock.  This presents an opportunity for short sellers to contribute to the further decline of our stock price.  If there are significant short sales of our stock, the price decline that would result from this activity will cause the share price to decline more so, which, in turn, may cause long holders of the stock to sell their shares thereby contributing to sales of stock in the market.
 
In 2005, we issued a significant number of shares of Series C Preferred Stock as part of a refinancing transaction and the holder of these shares has the ability to acquire a majority position in our common stock and appoint a majority of our Board.
 
On June 27, 2005, we issued 1,000,000 shares of our Series C Preferred Stock plus warrants to acquire 3,234,248 shares of the Company’s common stock, of which 2,227,087 are currently outstanding, at exercise prices ranging from $2.30 to $16.50 per share.  The Series C Preferred Stock is exchangeable for 4,782,609 shares of Common Stock and warrants to acquire 6,287,045 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $2.30 per share.  Upon conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock into common stock, and exercise of its warrants, the holder of the Series C Preferred Stock will control a majority of the shares of our common stock.  Prior to that time, the holder of the Series C Preferred Stock has the right to appoint a majority of our Board of Directors.  In addition, each share of Series C Preferred Stock will have 11 votes on all other matters submitted to the vote of the Company’s stockholders.  Accordingly, the holder of our Series C Preferred Stock holds a majority of the voting power held by all stockholders of the Company.  If the holder of the Series C Preferred Stock exchanges its Series C Preferred Stock for shares of the Company’s common stock and exercises all of its warrants, it would own approximately 55% of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock.
 
Our common stock is deemed to be "penny stock," which may make it more difficult for investors to sell their shares due to suitability requirements.
 
The Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted Rule 3a51-1 which establishes the definition of a "penny stock," for the purposes relevant to us, as any equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share or with an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions.  For any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, Rule 15g-9 requires:
 
 
·
that a broker or dealer approve a person's account for transactions in penny stocks; and
 
 
·
that the broker or dealer receives from the investor a written agreement to the transaction, setting forth the identity and quantity of the penny stock to be purchased.
 
12

 
In order to approve a person's account for transactions in penny stocks, the broker or dealer must:
 
 
·
obtain financial information and investment experience objectives of the person; and
 
 
·
make a reasonable determination that the transactions in penny stocks are suitable for that person and the person has sufficient knowledge and experience in financial matters to be capable of evaluating the risks of transactions in penny stocks.
 
Among other requirements, the broker or dealer must also deliver, prior to any transaction in a penny stock, a written statement, which:
 
 
·
sets forth the basis on which the broker or dealer made the suitability determination;
 
 
·
states, in a highlighted format, that it is unlawful for the broker or dealer to effect a transaction in a penny stock unless the broker or dealer has received a signed, written agreement from the investor prior to the transaction; and
 
 
·
states, in a highlighted format immediately preceding the customer signature line, that the broker or dealer is required to provide the person with the written statement and that the investor should not sign and return the written statement to the broker or dealer if it does not accurately reflect the person’s financial situation, investment experience, and investment objectives.
 
Generally, brokers may be less willing to execute transactions in securities subject to the "penny stock" rules.  This may make it more difficult for investors to dispose of our common stock and cause a decline in the market value of our stock.
 
Disclosure also has to be made about the risks of investing in penny stocks in both public offerings and in secondary trading and about the commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative, current quotations for the securities and the rights and remedies available to an investor in cases of fraud in penny stock transactions.  Finally, monthly statements have to be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stock held in the account and information on the limited market in penny stocks.
 
Item 2.  Properties
 
The Company leases approximately 11,477 square feet of office space located at 5078 South 111th Street, Omaha, Nebraska where most of the Company’s administrative, service, and other business operations are conducted.  The lease was amended on December 14, 2009 to extend the term of the lease to December 31, 2014.  The base rent for this property was $7,265 per month for 2009.  In addition to base rent, the Company pays a pro rata share of the operating expenses of the building.  The Company’s pro rata share of operating expenses on the leased premises is $2,986 per month.
 
The Company also leases approximately 1,800 square feet of office space located at 11132 Q Street, Omaha, Nebraska where its monitoring center is located.  The lease term commenced on January 1, 2007, and ended on December 31, 2009.  For the year ended December 31, 2009, the base rent for this property was $1,125 per month.  In addition to base rent, the Company pays a pro rata share of the operating expenses of the building.  The Company’s pro rata share of operating expenses on the leased premises is $391 per month.  The lease on 11132 Q Street was not extended and the Company is in the process of relocating its monitoring center to 5078 South 111th Street. During this relocation, the Company is renting the facility on a month to month basis.  In the opinion of management, the 5078 South 111th Street facility is adequate for the Company’s current and reasonably foreseeable needs.    The Company does not own any real property.

Highlights of 2009 Operations

Increased Revenue and Reduced Operating Loss
As highlighted in its quarterly reports, the Company has continued to report significant increases in year over year revenue as well as similarly significant decreases in operating losses.  For the year ended December 31, 2009, in comparison to the year ended December 31, 2008, the Company reported a $2,637,000 increase in revenue and a decrease in operating loss of $2,812,000.

Positive Cash Flow from Operations
For the first time in the Company's history, the Company's annual cash flow from operations was positive. For the year ended December 31, 2009 the Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities was $2,240,000, an improvement of $4,876,000 over the Net Cash Used in Operating Activities for the year ended December 31, 2008 of $2,636,000.  The improvement in Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities from 2008 to 2009 was the result of increasing revenues as well as the cost reductions and cost control plans implemented in 2008 and 2009.

In addition, the Company’s operations generated $537,000 in excess of required principal payments on long-term debt related to capital leases.   It is important to note that, based on borrowings outstanding at December 31, 2009, the cash required to cover the principal payments on these borrowings for 2010 is slightly less than 2009, but will decrease approximately $600,000 in 2011.

System Infrastructure and Service Delivery Systems
During 2009, the Company has continued to invest in the Company’s core infrastructure – tracNet24.  The improvements in 2009 significantly improved the speed and capacity of the tracNet24 system which positions us well for growth in terms of additional equipment under lease but also the expansion of services.   In addition, during the latter half of 2009 the Company invested in the development of a Salesforce.com (“SFDC”) platform which, when completed, will enhance the Company’s service delivery capabilities.  The development of the SFDC platform is expected to continue through 2010 and into 2011.

Outlook for 2010
The decline in equipment leasing revenue in the fourth quarter of 2009 has created some short-term challenges in terms of cash flow which will impact 2010.  Management has already taken steps to mitigate the impact of the decrease in revenue and related cash flow.

Despite recent signs of economic recovery, we expect that the ongoing difficult economic situation in the United States will continue to make it difficult for many state, county and local governments to accurately budget their tax revenues and costs.  As a result, we expect that many of the corrections agencies and other target customers for our offender tracking equipment and services will continue to evaluate expenditures carefully.  However, we believe that the value proposition that the Company provides to these target customers along with a recovering economy will result in the number of contracts being awarded beginning to increase slowly in the early part of 2010 and then accelerate in the later part of the year.

Total Revenues
For the year ended December 31, 2009, the Company had total revenue of $12,339,000, an increase of 27.2% over the total revenue of $9,702,000 recorded for the year ended December 31, 2008.

Equipment Revenue and Service Revenue
The Company’s principal sources of revenue (daily leasing of electronic monitoring equipment and administrative, field and support services) grew 25.8% over 2008. The increase in revenue over the prior year is the result of a net increase in the number of units under lease (equipment leasing) and the  number of units utilizing the Company’s monitoring center services (administrative field & support service revenues) net of several downward price adjustments as described below.

On a quarterly basis, the Company reported increasing levels of revenue from equipment leasing for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and June 20, 2009 as a result of increasing amounts of equipment under lease.

For the three months ended September 30, 2009 the Company experienced a slight decrease in equipment leasing revenue of which approximately $25,000 is attributable to a reduction in units deployed by existing customers, as opposed to the loss of customers.  The remaining decrease is attributable to a reduction of the overall daily price of a contract which occurred due to the customer exercising the renewal options extending the contract to June of 2010.
 
18

 
For the three months ended December 31, 2009, equipment leasing revenue decreased approximately $323,000.  Of that approximately $200,000 was attributed to a reduction in the overall daily price of a contract which occurred due to the customer exercising renewal options extending the contract to January 2012.  The remaining decrease in revenue was attributable to a reduction in units deployed by existing customers, as opposed to the loss of a customer.

Royalty Revenue
The Company earns royalty revenues under a Patent License Agreement with Satellite Tracking of People, L.L.C. (STOP) which grants STOP a license to utilize specific technology that is patented by the Company.  The Company earns a royalty equal to 2.5% of STOP’s revenue utilizing this technology.  Royalty revenue increased $262,000 from $492,000 in 2008 to $754,000 for the year ended December 31, 2009.  Revenue recognized under the STOP Patent License Agreement is based on estimates of STOP’s revenue and fluctuates accordingly.  The maximum amount of royalties that the Company can earn under the STOP Patent License Agreement is $1,500,000.  Through December 31, 2009 the Company had earned $1,250,000, leaving $250,000 which is expected to be recognized in the first six months of 2010.

Cost of Revenues
Cost of Revenues represents all direct costs related to delivery of monitoring equipment including amortization of the acquisition costs, repairs and maintenance of the monitoring equipment, transportation costs, communication costs associated with the equipment, as well as costs to upgrade existing units for advancements in technology.  Cost of revenues for the year ended December 31, 2009 were $4,525,000, an increase of $657,000 from $3,868,000 reported in 2008.   The increase in cost of revenues is outlined below
 
·
$229,000 related to communication costs of the Company's GPS equipment.  The increase is due to both an increase in the number of units deployed as well as an increase in the daily charge from the Company's cellular provider.
 
·
$171,000 related to royalty expenses outlined further below.
 
·
$125,000 related to the costs of sub-contracted services and equipment which are revenue producing to the Company.
 
·
$132,000 related to increases in amortization, repairs and supplies related to increased units deployed.

On November 27, 2007, the Company and Pro Tech Monitoring, Inc. (“Pro Tech”) entered into a Confidential Settlement Agreement (“Settlement Agreement”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to make a modification to its GPS tracking equipment to eliminate or disable a component that allegedly infringed on a U.S. patent held by Pro Tech.  On January 27, 2008, the Company became subject to royalty payments, which escalated over time, on unmodified equipment generating revenue.

In December 2009 the Company and Pro Tech reached substantial agreement over a Confidential Patent License Agreement ("Patent License Agreement") under which the Company was granted a limited license to provide the applicable technology to specific customers.  In addition, the Patent License Agreement fixed the amount of all royalties due Pro Tech for the limited license under the Patent License Agreement and all royalties due under the Settlement Agreement at $650,000, of which, approximately $142,000 was paid prior to December 31, 2009 with the balance being reflected in Accrued Expenses on the balance sheet of the Company at December 31, 2009.  The Patent License Agreement was entered into effective  March 1, 2010 on substantially the same terms as agreed upon in December, 2009 with the final payment being made to Pro Tech on March 4, 2010.

Royalty expense for 2009 and 2008 was   $411,000 and $239,000, respectively.   As a result of entering into this agreement, the Company will have no future royalty expenses in connection with this alleged infringement.

Gross Profit Margin
The net effect of the $2,637,000 increase in revenues offset by the $657,000 increase in cost of revenues is an increase in the Company’s gross profit margin of $1,980,000.  Gross profit margin, as a percentage of total revenue, improved to 63.3% in 2009 from 60.1% in 2008.

Research and Development Expenses
Research and Development (R&D) expenses represent the on-going direct costs associated with the development of the Company’s proprietary hardware and software including  staffing expenses for the Company’s own engineers and software developers, the cost of outside contracted engineering and design, and the actual costs of components, prototypes, and testing equipment and services used in the product development functions.

Research and Development expenses for 2009 were $1,263,000, an increase of $23,000 over the $1,240,000 expensed in 2008.

The Company is currently in the process of redesigning several major software systems and, in accordance with Statement of Position (SOP) 98-1, has capitalized certain payroll and related costs associated with the development of the applications.  For the year ended December 31, 2009, the capitalized expenses which would have otherwise been reported as R&D expenses totaled approximately $146,000.  $114,000 associated with this redesign was capitalized during the year ended December 31, 2008.

In addition, $75,000 was capitalized during the year ended December 31, 2009 related to improvements in the System 5000 equipment. No amounts were capitalized related to the System 5000 during the year ended December 31, 2008.

R&D expenses fluctuate as a result of open positions and subsequent staffing as well the amount of capitalization of certain payroll costs in connection with the software redesign noted above.

Sales, General and Administrative Expenses
Sales, General and Administrative (SG&A) expenses are all the expenses associated with the operations of the Company, other than the expenses described above.  These expenses include payroll, taxes and benefits and related travel for executive, sales, administrative, customer support and accounting staff.  In addition these costs include rent on property, corporate communications, office leases and supplies, marketing, advertising, trade shows, recruiting and training expenses, professional fees and bad debt expense.

For the year ended December 31, 2009, SG&A expenses decreased $855,000 to $7,262,000 from $8,117,000 incurred in 2008.  Significant components of the decrease in SG&A expense from 2008 to 2009 are highlighted below:
 
·
$560,000 reduction in personnel related expenses including salaries, benefits, recruiting, and travel  due to the decrease in staffing levels related to sales, administrative,  customer support and the monitoring center.
 
 
·
$120,000 reduction in bad debt expense
 
 
·
$75,000 reduction in stock option expense
 
 
·
$59,000 reduction in office and computer supplies due to implemented cost control measures and the reduction in the Company's overall headcount
 
 
·
$41,000 reduction in corporate insurance expense
 
Looking forward, management expects Operating Expenses which include SG&A and R&D to continue at, or slightly below the levels as incurred in the second half of 2009.

 
20

 
 
Interest Expense, Net
Net interest expense represents the total interest expense incurred by the Company  in connection with its borrowings from Crestpark, LP Inc. (“Crestpark”) and AHK Leasing LLC (“AHK”) reduced by the interest income earned by the Company during the year.  The net interest expense increased $134,000 from $1,078,000 in 2008 to $1,212,000 in 2009.  The increase is attributable to the increase in equipment purchased under capital leases, as well as the additional borrowings under the credit facilities with Crestpark.

Until such time as the Company is able to finance equipment purchases from cash flow generated by operations, we expect to see net interest expense continue at or above the current levels.

Net Loss
The Company’s net loss for 2009 was $1,923,000 a decrease of $2,678,000 from the $4,601,000, reported in 2008 for the reasons described herein.

Preferred Stock Dividends and Accretion
For the year ended December 31, 2009, preferred stock dividends and accretion totaled $1,347,000 as compared to $1,224,000 for 2008.  This increase was due to compounding interest on accrued but unpaid dividends on our Series C Preferred Stock.  The Series C Exchangeable Preferred Stock accrues interest at a cumulative compounded rate of 8.0% per annum.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
For the year ended December 31, 2009, the Company generated $2,240,000 of cash in operating activities, used $2,322,000 in investing activities, and generated $378,000 in cash from financing activities.  The total of all cash flow activities resulted in an increase of $296,000 in the balance of cash for the year ended December 31, 2009. 
 
For the year ended December 31, 2008, the Company used $2,636,000 of cash in operating activities, used $2,433,000 in investing activities and generated $2,049,000 in cash from financing activities.  The total of all cash flow activities in 2008 resulted in a decrease in the balance of cash of $3,019,000.

In addition to cash generated by operations, the Company has access to credit facilities under lending agreements with AHK to finance the acquisition of tracking equipment and Crestpark to meet its other working capital needs as follows:

AHK:

AHK, a company controlled by three stockholders, one of which is a current director has indicated that they expect to continue to provide lease financing for our monitoring equipment purchases during 2010.  Through sale-leaseback arrangements, the Company sells the inventory to AHK and then leases the equipment back.  All capital leases are treated as financing transactions with interest rates ranging from 10.00% to 12.50% per annum.  Maturity dates on these capital leases run from September 2010 to December 2012.  As of December 31, 2009, the aggregate balance on the capital leases totaled $2,923,532, of which $1,674,221 is current and the balance of $1,249,311 is classified as long-term debt. The Company made principal payments on capital leases with AHK totaling $1,702,000 and $1,151,000 during 2009 and 2008, respectively.  

To the extent that AHK is unable to provide lease financing, the Company intends to utilize the Equipment Term Loan under the November 2008 loan agreement with Crestpark.

 
21

 

Crestpark:

Revolving Line of Credit - The Company has a $750,000 Revolving Line Credit with Crestpark for its working capital needs.  The Revolving Line of Credit has a term ending on January 1, 2012, is unsecured and bears interest at a fixed noncompounded rate of 12% per annum.  The Company is also required to pay Crestpark a fee of 0.25% per annum on the average daily unused amount of the Revolving Line of Credit. The Company had a net decrease in borrowings on the Revolving Line of Credit of $150,000 in 2009 in comparison to a net increase in borrowings on the same line in 2008.  As of December 31, 2009, the Company had $350,000 outstanding under the Revolving Line of Credit and $400,000 available.

Equipment Term Loan - The Company has a $1,750,000 Equipment Term Loan with Crestpark which it has used to purchase GPS-based offender tracking and monitoring equipment.  At Crestpark’s discretion, any borrowings under the Equipment Term Loan that remain outstanding more than 30 days can be converted into separate 36 Month Notes, which are notes payable over 36 month terms.  The Equipment Term Loan has a term ending January 1, 2012, bears interest at a fixed rate of 12% per annum and is secured by the monitoring equipment purchased with the proceeds of the Equipment Term Loan.  The Company is also required to pay Crestpark a fee of 0.25% per annum on the average daily unused amount of the Equipment Term Loan.  The Company had a net increase in borrowings on the Equipment Term Loan of $230,000 and $50,000 for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. The amount available to be drawn under the Equipment Term Loan at December 31, 2009 is $1,338,000, of which approximately $508,000 was drawn on February 24, 2010, leaving $830,000 available to be drawn.

By the end of 2009, the Company was incurring approximately $350,000 in recurring monthly costs of revenues and $630,000 in recurring monthly operating expenses, excluding non-cash expenses such as the provision for doubtful accounts, depreciation and amortization of stock options.  The majority of the recurring monthly operating expenses consisted of salaries, wages, payroll taxes, health insurance and other employee benefits.  In addition to these recurring monthly operating expenses, the Company’s other principal uses of cash are the payment of other recurring monthly operating expenses, the acquisition of monitoring equipment and the changes in working capital.  In general, the Company meets its liquidity needs from its current revenues, existing cash and cash equivalents (including the proceeds of the additional borrowings from Crestpark, as described above), and through capital leasing arrangements.  As of December 31, 2009, the Company had $720,000 in cash and cash equivalents.

The Company believes that its current working capital combined with the expected amounts available for additional working capital via the Revolving Line of Credit with Crestpark and through lease financing for its monitoring equipment through AHK and/or Crestpark are sufficient to meet its liquidity needs through 2010.  
 
Critical Accounting Policies
 
The Company prepares its consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”).  This requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect reported amounts and related disclosures.  Actual amounts will differ from those estimates.  The significant accounting policies are described in Note 1 to the audited Consolidated Financial Statements.  Of those policies, the following have been identified as the most critical because they are the most important to the portrayal of the Company’s results of operations and financial condition and they require subjective or complex management judgments:
 
Revenue recognition and deferred revenue
The Company derives revenue from equipment leasing and services and patent royalties.

 
22

 

Equipment leasing and services – the Company charges a daily rate for equipment leasing and service revenue (e.g. per day/per individual being monitored) and recognizes revenue as equipment leasing and services are provided. The majority of the Company’s contracts are billed on a monthly basis in arrears. However, in some instances customers are billed in advance, in which case, those billings are reflected as deferred revenue and recognized as equipment leasing and services are provided.
 
Royalty revenue – the Company earns royalty revenues on a patent license agreement under which it licenses its patented technology to a competitor. Prior to and during the quarter ended September 30, 2008, the Company accounted for these royalty revenues on a cash basis. Beginning in the quarter ended December 31, 2008, the Company accounted for these royalty revenues on an accrual basis as the amounts were then estimable and probable of collection.

Stock–based compensation
 
The Company accounts for its stock-based compensation in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC)” 718, “Compensation-Stock Compensation”, which requires that the compensation cost relating to share-based payment transactions, including grants of employee stock options, be recognized in the financial statements based on the fair value of the equity or liability instruments issued. ASC 718 covers a wide range of share-based compensation arrangements including stock options, restricted share plans, performance-based awards, share appreciation rights, and employee share purchase plans. Under ASC 718, the Company is required to measure the cost of its employee services received in exchange for stock options based on the grant-date fair value of the award, and to recognize the cost over the period the employee is required to provide services for the award.

Research and Development Expenses
The Company expenses research and development expenses as incurred.  For the year ended December 31, 2009, the Company incurred $1,263,000 in research and development expenses, net of $146,000 capitalized in connection with the redesign of major software systems and $75,000 capitalized in connection with System 5000 improvements.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
The Company evaluates goodwill for impairment on an annual basis.  The Company assesses the recoverability of long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.  These computations utilize judgments and assumptions inherent in management’s estimate of future undiscounted and discounted cash flows to determine recoverability of these assets.  If management’s assumptions about these assets were to change as a result of events or circumstances, the Company may be required to record an impairment loss.  The Company recorded no impairment charges for the years ended December 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
 
The Company has no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future material effect on its financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors
iSECUREtrac Corp.
Omaha, Nebraska

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of iSECUREtrac Corp. and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2009 and 2008, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ deficit, and cash flows for the years then ended.  These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and the significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.  We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of iSECUREtrac Corp. and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2009 and 2008, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

We were not engaged to examine management’s assessment of the effectiveness of iSECUREtrac Corp. and Subsidiaries' internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2009 included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K and, accordingly, we do not express an opinion thereon.

iSECUREtrac CORP AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1.  Nature of Business and Significant Accounting Policies

Nature of Business

iSECUREtrac develops, markets, leases and services products that assist in “monitoring compliance and modifying behavior” of individuals who are under the supervision of the criminal justice system and social service agencies, primarily in the United States.  The Company’s suite of services  (e.g. Global Positioning System (“GPS”)  tracking systems, house arrest, visual breath alcohol monitoring and supplemental monitoring services) are designed to offer an alternative to incarceration thereby reducing  the overall cost associated with individuals under correctional or community supervision.

The Company deploys equipment and services through two methods: through direct contracts with state, local and county agencies or through resellers who have contracts with state, local and county agencies. The actual number of units deployed by the Company's customers will vary from month to month and the Company's revenue will vary accordingly. Therefore, in the absence of new contracts won, the Company's revenue may increase and in the absence of contracts lost, the Company's revenue may decrease.

 
Direct contracts with the state, county or local agencies - These contracts are generally won through the competitive bid processes as required by the particular state, county or local procurement laws.   The length of contracts vary and range from one year to five years, including renewal options and typically include cancellation clauses with 30 to 60 days notice.  In general, contracts do not specify a minimum or maximum number of units.

 
Resellers - These contracts are won through direct solicitation to the reseller.  They generally have no stated expiration or automatically renew on a month to month basis with cancellation clauses of 30 to 60 days notice.

Significant Accounting Policies

Principles of consolidation:  The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of iSECUREtrac and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, iSt Services, Inc., formed September 25, 2002, and Tracking Systems Corporation (“TSC”), acquired on August 28, 2003.  All material intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
 
Accounting estimates and assumptions:  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 amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
Cash and cash equivalents:  For financial statement purposes, the Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.  The carrying value of these investments approximates fair value due to the nature of the maturity period.
 
Trade accounts receivable:  Trade accounts receivable are carried at original invoice amount less an estimate made for doubtful receivables based on a review of all outstanding amounts on a monthly basis.  Management determines the allowance for doubtful receivables by regularly evaluating individual customer receivables and considering a customer’s financial condition, credit history and current economic conditions.  Trade accounts receivable are written off when deemed uncollectible.  Recoveries of trade accounts receivable previously written off are recorded when received.  The Company offers credit terms to select customers of up to 45 days.  Additionally, the Company reserves the right to assess finance charges on delinquent accounts where such charges are permitted.  Accounts are considered delinquent after 45 days.  There was $223,856 of bad debt expenses for 2009 and $343,761 for 2008.

 
30

 
 
Inventories:  Inventories consist of repair parts or components that will be used in the production of new revenue producing equipment.  Inventories are reviewed for obsolescence on a quarterly basis.
 
Leasehold improvement and equipment:  Leasehold improvements and equipment are recorded at cost.  Equipment, including monitoring equipment, is depreciated on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets ranging from 3 to 10 years.  The cost of leasehold improvements is amortized over the lesser of the estimated lives of the assets or the lease term.  Amortization of assets acquired under capital leases is included with depreciation expense on the owned assets.
 
The Company assesses the recoverability of long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.  These computations utilize judgments and assumptions inherent in management’s estimate of future undiscounted and discounted cash flows to determine recoverability of these assets.  If management’s assumptions about these assets were to change as a result of events or circumstances, the Company may be required to record an impairment loss.  With respect to the Company’s long lived assets, the Company recorded no impairment charges for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008.
 
Product development:  The Company capitalizes software and hardware development costs when a product's technological feasibility has been established and ends when the product is available for general release to customers.  All software and hardware development costs are amortized on a straight-line basis over 36 months.   As of December 31, 2009, the Company had capitalized development costs of $315,937 related to the System 5000 and $259,977 related to the improvements in the functionality of our web-based software and customer-facing interfaces.  Of these amounts, $259,662 and $0, respectively, had been amortized through December 31, 2009.  The net value of these capitalized software and hardware development costs are included in the Leasehold improvements and equipment line of the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
 
Research and development expenses:  Research and development cost of $1,263,148 and $1,240,382 were charged to operations for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively.
 
Goodwill:  Goodwill represents the excess of purchase price paid over the net identifiable assets of the acquired business.  It is subject to annual tests for impairment.  The Company has recorded no impairment charges related to goodwill for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008.
 
Intangibles, subject to amortization:  Amortizable intangibles represent the value assigned to the future net income stream attributable to customer monitoring contracts assumed by the Company in a prior acquisition based on their capacity to generate such income.  The intangible asset was amortized over seven years, the estimated life of the monitoring contracts to which they relate.  Amortization was based on the ratio of projected annual revenue streams to total projected revenue per existing customer monitoring contracts.  All intangibles were fully amortized as of December 31, 2009.
 
Earnings (loss) per share:  Basic Earnings (Loss) Per Common Share is computed by dividing income (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.  Diluted Earnings (Loss) Per Common Share shall be computed by including contingently issuable shares with the weighted average shares outstanding during the period.  When inclusion of the contingently issuable shares would have an antidilutive effect upon earnings per share, no diluted earnings (loss) per share shall be presented.  The following potentially dilutive shares were not included in diluted earnings (loss) per common share as they would have an antidilutive effect upon earnings (loss) per share:

Common stock warrants outstanding
    2,227,074       3,544,535  
 
Revenue recognition and deferred revenue:   The Company derives revenue from equipment leasing and services and patent royalties.

Equipment leasing and services – the Company charges a daily rate for equipment leasing and service revenue (e.g. per day/per individual being monitored) and recognizes revenue as equipment leasing and services are provided. The majority of the Company’s contracts are billed on a monthly basis in arrears. However, in some instances customers are billed in advance, in which case, those billings are reflected as deferred revenue and recognized as equipment leasing and services are provided.

Royalty revenue – the Company entered into a Patent License Agreement in 2005 with Satellite Tracking of People, L.L.C. (STOP) which grants STOP a license to utilize specific technology that is patented by the Company. In exchange for that license the Company is entitled to receive a royalty payment from STOP equal to 2.5% of the revenue utilizing such technology, due annually by March 31 of each year. Prior to and during the quarter ended September 30, 2008, the Company accounted for royalty revenue on a cash basis. During the three months ended December 31, 2008, the Company began accounting for these revenues on an accrual basis as the amounts were then estimable and probable of collection. The maximum that can be earned under this agreement is $1,500,000. Through December 31, 2009 the Company has earned $1,250,000, leaving $250,000 which is expected to be recognized in the first six months of 2010.
 
Income taxes: Deferred taxes are provided for by the liability method wherein deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.
 
Stock–based compensation: The Company accounts for its stock-based compensation in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 718, “Compensation-Stock Compensation”, which requires that the compensation cost relating to share-based payment transactions, including grants of employee stock options, be recognized in the financial statements based on the fair value of the equity or liability instruments issued. ASC 718 covers a wide range of share-based compensation arrangements including stock options, restricted share plans, performance-based awards, share appreciation rights, and employee share purchase plans. Under ASC 718, the Company is required to measure the cost of its employee services received in exchange for stock options based on the grant-date fair value of the award, and to recognize the cost over the period the employee is required to provide services for the award.
 
The Company adopted the requirements of ASC 718 using the modified prospective transition method for valuing stock options. Under this method, stock based compensation expense is recognized using the fair-value based accounting method for all employee awards granted, modified, or settled during a period.

 
32

 
 
The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions:  The significant assumptions used in the Black Scholes model to estimate compensation expense are as follows:
 
   
2009
   
2008
 
Risk free interest rate
    3.60 %     3.79 %
                 
Expected volatility factor
    81.50 %     82.84 %
                 
Expected option term in years
 
3.5 to 6.5
   
3.5 to 6.5
 
             
Dividends
  $ 0.00     $ 0.00  
                 
Forfeitures for senior executives
    35 %     23 %
                 
Forfeitures for non-senior
    24 %     24 %
 
The risk-free interest rate is determined on the date the grant is issued. This rate is equal to the rates based on yields from U.S. Treasury zero-coupon issues with maturity of 3.5 years to 6.5 years. Expected volatilities are based upon looking back at historical stock prices since the date of adoption of the plan.
 
The Company is required to estimate forfeitures. The forfeiture rate is the rate at which options are expected to be forfeited prior to full vesting. The forfeiture rate is determined based on actual forfeiture rate experience as follows: For each historical year of option issuance, the total options issued for the year is compared to the options forfeited prior to having vested. For option years in which the two year vesting period has not passed, past experience is used to project future forfeitures. The total of pro forma forfeitures is then compared to total options awarded and the resultant percentage is used as the forfeiture rate. This forfeiture rate is recalculated on an annual basis.
 
The annual rate of quarterly dividends is 0% since iSECUREtrac has historically not paid dividends on its common stock and does not anticipate paying dividends on its common stock in the future.
 
The Company recorded pre-tax compensation expense for stock options issued to its employees of $331,175 and $406,024 for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. The Company has recorded a full valuation allowance on deferred tax assets and, therefore, no tax benefit is recognized.
 
The fair value of stock warrants issued to non-employees is also accounted for using ASC 718. Related compensation expense is charged to income when incurred.

Advertising costs: Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising expense for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, was $13,355 and $35,310, respectively.

Uncertain Tax Positions. The Company accounts for all income taxes in accordance with ASC 740 – Income Taxes which 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. It requires that we recognize in our consolidated financial statements, only those tax positions that are “more-likely-than-not” of being sustained as of the adoption date, based on the technical merits of the position. There are no unrecognized tax benefits in the Company’s financial statements as of December 31, 2009 and 2008.

 
33

 

The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in general and administrative expense. As of December 31, 2009, the Company has not recorded any provisions for accrued interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements:
 
In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 105, Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“ASC 105”). ASC 105 establishes the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“Codification”) as the source of authoritative accounting principles recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernment entities in the preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP. Rules and interpretive releases of the SEC under authority of federal securities law are also sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants. The Company adopted ASC 105 in three months ended September 30, 2009. References to FASB guidance throughout this document have been updated for the Codification.
 
The Company adopted an update to ASC 820 – “Fair Value Measurement and Derivatives” (“ASC 820”) (formerly SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements”) on January 1, 2009. ASC 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurement. ASC 820 also emphasizes that fair value is a market-based measurement, not an entity-specific measurement, and sets out a fair value hierarchy with the highest priority being quoted prices in active markets. Under ASC 820, fair value measurements are disclosed by level within that hierarchy. The Company adopted ASC 820 for the fiscal year beginning January 1, 2008, except for nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a nonrecurring basis for which delayed application is permitted until fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008. Under the elected deferral, the following are assets and liabilities recognized or disclosed at fair value for which the Company has not yet applied the provisions of ASC 820; (non financial assets and liabilities in business combinations, reporting units measured at fair value in goodwill testing, indefinite lived intangibles measured at fair value for impairment testing, long lived assets measured at fair value for impairment, asset retirement obligations and liabilities for exit or disposal activities.) The Company adopted the remaining provisions of ASC 820 on January 1, 2009. The adoption of the remaining provisions of ASC 820 and the update had no material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
 
The Company adopted an update to ASC 810 – “Consolidation” (“ASC 810”) (formerly SFAS No. 160 “Noncontrolling Interest in Consolidated Financial Statements”) on January 1, 2009, " This statement requires that noncontrolling or minority interests in subsidiaries be presented in the consolidated statement of financial position within equity, but separate from the parents' equity, and that the amount of the consolidated net income attributable to the parent and to the noncontrolling interest be clearly identified and presented on the face of the consolidated statement of income. ASC 810 is effective for the fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2008. The update had no material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
 
The Company adopted an update to ASC 805 – Business Combinations (“ASC 805”) (formerly SFAS No. 141 (Revised) “Business Combinations” on January 1, 2009. ASC 805 establishes principles and requirements for how the acquirer of a business recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree. The statement also provides guidance for recognizing and measuring the goodwill acquired in the business combination and determines what information to disclose to enable users of the financial statements to evaluate the nature and financial effects of the business combination. This update had no material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows but will have an impact on any future acquisitions.
 
 
34

 
 
The Company adopted an update to ASC 825 – “Financial Instruments” (“ASC 825”) (formerly Financial Staff Position 107-1, “Interim Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments” on April 1, 2009. ASC 825 requires disclosures about the fair value of financial instruments for interim reporting periods of publicly traded companies as well as in annual financial statements and also requires those disclosures in summarized financial information at interim reporting periods A publicly traded company includes any company whose securities trade in a public market on either a stock exchange or in the over-the-counter market, or any company that is a conduit bond obligor. Additionally, when a company makes a filing with a regulatory agency in preparation for sale of its securities in a public market it is considered a publicly traded company for this purpose. The update had no material impact on the financial statements. Additional disclosures have been provided where applicable.

The Company adopted an update to ASC 855 – “Subsequent Events” (“ASC 855”) (formerly SFAS No. 165, “Subsequent Events”) on April 1, 2009. ASC 855 provides guidance on when a subsequent event should be recognized in the financial statements. Subsequent events that provide additional evidence about conditions that existed at the date of the balance sheet should be recognized at the balance sheet date. Subsequent events that provide evidence about conditions that arose after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued, or are available to be issued, are not required to be recognized. The date through which subsequent events have been evaluated must be disclosed as well as whether it is the date the financial statements were issued or the date the financial statements were available to be issued. For nonrecognized subsequent events which should be disclosed to keep the financial statements from being misleading, the nature of the event and an estimate of its financial effect, or a statement that such an estimate cannot be made, should be disclosed. The standard is effective for interim or annual periods ending after June 15, 2009. See Note 9 for Management’s evaluation of subsequent events.

In June 2009, the FASB issued updates to ASC 405 – “Liabilities” and ASC 860 – “Transfers and Servicing” (“updates”) (formerly SFAS No. 166, “Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets – an amendment of FASB Statement No. 140”). These updates improve the relevance, representational faithfulness, and comparability of the information that a reporting entity provides in its financial statements about a transfer of financial assets; the effects of a transfer on its financial position, financial performance, and cash flows; and a transferor’s continuing involvement, if any, in transferred financial assets. The updates shall be effective as of the first annual reporting period that begins after November 15, 2009, for interim periods within that first annual reporting period, and for interim and annual reporting periods thereafter. Earlier application is prohibited. Our adoption of these updates to ASC 405 and ASC 860 will not have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

In June 2009, the FASB issued revised authoritative guidance related to variable interest entities, which requires entities to perform a qualitative analysis to determine whether a variable interest gives the entity a controlling financial interest in a variable interest entity. The guidance also requires an ongoing reassessment of variable interests and eliminates the quantitative approach previously required for determining whether an entity is the primary beneficiary. This guidance, which will be incorporated into ASC Topic 810, “Consolidation,” will be effective as of the beginning of an entity’s first annual reporting period that begins after November 15, 2009 (January 1, 2010 for the Company). Our adoption of the update will not have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

In October 2009, the FASB issued ASU No. 2009-13, Revenue Recognition (ASC 605): Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force); effective for years beginning after June 15, 2010. Vendors often provide multiple products and/or services to their customers as part of a single arrangement. These deliverables may be provided at different points in time or over different time periods. The existing guidance regarding how and whether to separate these deliverables and how to allocate the overall arrangement consideration to each was originally captured in EITF Issue No. 00-21, Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables, which is now codified at ASC 605-25, Revenue Recognition - Multiple-Element Arrangements. The issuance of ASU 2009-13 amends ASC 605-25 and represents a significant shift from the existing guidance that was considered abuse-preventative and heavily geared toward ensuring that revenue recognition was not accelerated. The application of this new guidance is expected to result in accounting for multiple-deliverable revenue arrangements that better reflects their economics as more arrangements will be separated into individual units of accounting. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of adopting ASU No. 2009-13.

In October 2009, the FASB issued ASU No. 2009-14, Software (ASC 985): Certain Revenue Arrangements That Include Software Elements (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force); effective for years beginning after June 15, 2010.  ASU 2009-14 modifies the existing scope guidance in ASC 985-605, Software Revenue Recognition, for revenue arrangements with tangible products that include software elements.  This modification was made primarily due to the changes in ASC 605-25 noted previously, which further differentiated the separation and allocation guidance applicable to non-software arrangements as compared to software arrangements.  Prior to the modification of ASC 605-25, the separation and allocation guidance for software and non-software arrangements was more similar.  Under ASC 985-605, which was originally issued as AICPA Statement of Position 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition, an arrangement to sell a tangible product along with software was considered to be in its scope if the software was more than incidental to the product as a whole.  The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of adopting ASU No. 2009-14.

Note 3.  Goodwill and Intangibles, Subject to Amortization
 
Goodwill is the excess of the cash paid over the net fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in an acquisition, less the amount of identifiable intangible assets.  Goodwill is not amortized, but is tested for impairment on an annual basis at the end of each calendar year.  The Company has determined that there is no impairment of goodwill as of December 31, 2009 and 2008.
 
The Company also separately records other intangible assets that can be identified and assigned a value.  At December 31, 2009, such intangible assets consisted solely of customer monitoring contracts assumed in a prior acquisition.  The Company amortizes the initial carrying value attributable to these monitoring contracts based on the projected revenue stream of the monitoring contracts.  This amortization expense is included in sales, general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations and was $19,394 in 2009 and $41,961 in 2008.  These intangible assets were previously tested for impairment on an annual basis.   As of December 31, 2009, the intangibles were fully amortized.

Note 4. Credit Agreements
 
On November 10, 2008, the Company entered into a loan agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) with Crestpark LP, Inc. (“Crestpark”) and in connection with the Loan Agreement executed two separate promissory notes.  The first note is for $750,000 for working capital via a Revolving Credit Commitment and the second note is for $1,750,000 for equipment financing via an Equipment Term Loan.  The Loan Agreement, when executed in 2008 had a maturity date of July 1, 2010.  On November 4, 2009, the parties executed an amendment to the Loan Agreement extending the maturity date to January 1, 2012.  All other terms remain unchanged.
 
Revolving Credit Commitment - The proceeds of the Revolving Credit Commitment of $750,000 are to be used for working capital needs and are anticipated to be repaid from cash flow generated by the operations of the Company.  The Revolving Credit Commitment has a term ending on January 1, 2012, is unsecured and bears interest at a fixed noncompounded rate of 12% per annum.  The Company is also required to pay Crestpark an unused fee of 0.25% per annum on the average daily unused amount of the Revolving Credit Commitment.  Interest expense to Crestpark in 2009 and 2008 was $70,468 and $2,682, respectively.  As of December 31, 2009, the Company had $350,000 outstanding under the Revolving Credit Commitment and $400,000 available, compared with $500,000 outstanding and $250,000 available as of December 31, 2008.  Amounts borrowed and repaid remain available under the Revolving Credit Commitment.
 
Equipment Term Loan - The proceeds of the $1,750,000 Equipment Term Loan are to be used to purchase GPS-based offender tracking and monitoring equipment that is leased or sold by the Company to its clients.  It is anticipated that borrowings under the Equipment Term Loan will be repaid from permanent equipment financing secured by the Company from time to time.  At Crestpark’s discretion, any borrowings under the Equipment Term Loan that remain outstanding more than 30 days can be converted into separate 36 Month Notes, which are notes payable over 36 month terms.  The Equipment Term Loan has a term ending January 1, 2012, bears interest at a fixed rate of 12% per annum and is secured by the monitoring equipment purchased with the proceeds of the Equipment Term Loan.  The Company is also required to pay Crestpark an unused fee of 0.25% per annum on the average daily unused amount of the Equipment Term Loan.  Interest expense to Crestpark in 2009 and 2008 was $13,033 and $784 respectively.  As of December 31, 2009, the Company had $280,000 outstanding under the Equipment Term Loan and $1,337,593 available, compared with $50,000 outstanding and $1,700,000 available as of December 31, 2008.  Amounts borrowed and repaid are no longer available under the Equipment Term Loan.

Crestpark LP, Inc.
The Company has outstanding a Note Payable (“Note”) with Crestpark LP, Inc (“Crestpark”),   for $11,877,475 under a Credit and Security Agreement originally dated December 18, 2007.  Outstanding borrowings are due and payable on the earlier of (i) January 1, 2012 or (ii) the first date on which the Company either issues equity securities or arranges for additional indebtedness (other than trade indebtedness incurred in the ordinary course of its business) in a transaction or series of transactions which generates aggregate net proceeds to the Company of not less than the then current principal amount outstanding under this Note, plus all accrued but unpaid interest.  The Company may prepay the Note at any time without premium or penalty.  The Note provides, among other things, that $6,455,250 (the “Fixed Tranche”) of the borrowings thereunder shall bear interest at 9.0% per annum and that such interest will be due and payable at maturity of the Note.  The remaining $5,422,225 of borrowings (the “Floating Tranche”) under the Note will bear interest at a floating rate equal to 2% over the prime rate (the “Base Rate”).  The portion of the interest on the Floating Tranche determined by the Base Rate will be payable at maturity, but the remaining portion of the interest representing the 2% premium over the Base Rate will be payable monthly.

The Credit and Security Agreement, when originally executed had a maturity date of July 1, 2010.  On November 4, 2009, the parties executed an amendment to the Credit and Security Agreement extending the maturity date to January 1, 2012.  All other terms of the Credit and Security Agreement remain unchanged except the interest rate on the Fixed Tranche which was increased from 7% to 9%.

Accrued interest on the secured note payable at December 31, 2009 equaled $1,428,778.

The borrowings under the Note are secured by a first priority security interest in all of the assets of the Company except that Crestpark’s security interest in certain monitoring equipment is subordinate to the interest of AHK Leasing LLC under its sale leaseback arrangements.

Common Stock
 
In 2009 and 2008, the Company issued 17,010 and 19,410 shares of common stock, respectively, to non-management directors in lieu of director fees.  The number of shares of common stock issued in each case was based on the fair value of the Company’s common stock as of the date of the meetings to which such fees related.  Expense related to these director’s fees totaled $8,000 for each of the years ended December 31, 2009, and 2008.

40

 

2001 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan
 
In June 2001, the stockholders of iSECUREtrac approved the 2001 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan (the “2001 Plan”).  As of May 31, 2006, the Company’s 2001 Plan expired.  The 2001 Plan provided for the granting of stock options and other equity incentives for up to 100,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock to the Company’s officers, directors, and consultants who provided services to the Company and key employees at an exercise price 85% of the average daily closing price of the Company’s common stock for the week prior to when the options were granted.  The options are to vest on a monthly basis over a one month to a 36-month period of time from the date of grant.  As of January 1 of each year, commencing with the year 2002, the aggregate number of options that were awarded under the 2001 Plan was automatically increased by a number equal to the lesser of 1% of the total number of Common Shares then outstanding or 20,000.
 
2006 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan
 
On May 4, 2006, at the Company’s annual meeting of stockholders, the stockholders approved the adoption of the Company’s newly created 2006 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan (the “2006 Plan”).  The 2006 Plan became effective on May 31, 2006.  The 2006 Plan provides for the granting of stock options and other equity incentives to the Company’s officers, employees, directors and consultants who provide services to the Company.  The 2006 Plan has a term of ten years unless terminated by the board of directors.  Stock options are granted with an exercise price not less than fair market value of the common stock on the date of the grant.  Vesting schedules and expiration dates for the grants issued under this plan are specified at the time of grant.
 
Non-Plan Stock Options
 
The Company has granted options to purchase common stock outside of the 2001 Plan and 2006 Plan to various executive officers pursuant to the terms of their employment agreements.  These options have exercise prices ranging from $2.01 to $4.90 per share and have terms expiring through April 30, 2014.  These options vest on a monthly basis over two year periods from their grant date.

Benefit Plan

The “iSECUREtrac Corporation Retirement Plan” offers all regular full-time employees, 21 years of age and older, to participate in a 401k savings plan.  The plan offers either a pre-tax contribution option or the Roth, after-tax contribution option.   iSECUREtrac provides a match of 25% up to 10% of the employee’s contribution, with a maximum match of $2,500.  The employer contribution vests over a 4-year graded schedule.  The total expense related to the plan was $39,192 and $38,589 for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively.
 
Note 8.  Convertible Preferred Stock

The Company is authorized to issue up to 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock from time to time with such rights and privileges as the Board of Directors may determine.  The Company has issued the following shares of preferred stock:

 
43

 

Series C Exchangeable Preferred Stock

On June 27, 2005, the Company issued 1,000,000 shares of its $0.01 par value Series C 8% Cumulative Compounding Exchangeable Preferred Stock (the “Series C Preferred Stock”). The Series C Preferred Stock is exchangeable for 4,782,609 shares of Common Stock and warrants to acquire 6,287,045 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $2.30 per share.
 
If, after June 27, 2010, the closing price of the common stock exceeds $20.00 per share for at least 120 consecutive trading days, the Company can require the conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock into Common Stock in accordance with the above exchange provisions.
 
The Series C Preferred Stock is redeemable on the tenth anniversary of the original issue date.  The redemption price per share of the Series C Preferred Stock will equal the per share original issue price ($11.00 per share) plus an amount equal to all accrued but unpaid dividends thereon (and any interest payable thereon).  The interest method will be utilized to accrete the carrying amount of the Series C Preferred Stock over the ten year period to the earliest redemption date so that the carrying amount will equal the redemption amount at the earliest possible redemption date.  Due to the accumulated deficit position of the Company, the periodic accretion is charged to Additional Paid-In Capital.

As of December 31, 2009, the Company had accrued Series C Preferred Stock dividends totaling $4,581,555 and accretion to redemption value of the Series C Preferred Stock totaling $852,592.  Of these amounts, $1,154,189 and $192,632, respectively, were the amounts accrued and accreted in 2009.

Upon any liquidation of the Company, no distribution shall be made to the holders of shares of Common Stock or other stock ranking junior to the Series C Preferred Stock unless, prior thereto, the holders of shares of Series C Preferred Stock shall have received an amount per share equal to the per share Original Issue Price plus an amount equal to accrued and unpaid dividends and distributions thereon, whether or not declared, to the date of such payment, multiplied by a factor of 105%.
 
Except as otherwise required by law, the holders of shares of Series C Preferred Stock vote together with the holders of shares of the Common Stock of the Company on all matters submitted to the stockholders of the Company and not as a separate class, and each share of Series C Preferred Stock entitles the holder thereof to 11 votes or the equivalent amount of voting power thereof as determined by the Board of Directors.  In addition, until such time that less than 500,000 shares of Series C Preferred Stock are outstanding, the Series C Preferred Stock holders have the ability to appoint a majority of the Company’s directors.
 
Note 9.  Income Taxes
 
Net deferred tax asset includes the following components as of December 31, 2009 and 2008:
 
 
44

 

 
   
2009
   
2008
 
Deferred tax assets (liabilities):
           
Net operating loss carryforward
  $ 27,157,000     $ 26,571,000  
Allowance for doubtful accounts
    267,000       185,000  
Stock option expense
    592,000       460,000  
Accrued expenses
    141,000       110,000  
Deferred revenue
    39,000       120,000  
Subtotal
    28,196,000       27,446,000  
Valuation Allowance
    (28,196,000 )     (27,446,000 )
    $ -     $ -  
 
The income tax provision differs from the amount of income tax determined by applying the statutory federal income tax rate to pretax loss for the years ended December 31, 2009, and 2008 due to the following:
 
   
2009
   
2008
 
Computed Federal "expected" tax benefit
  $ (655,000 )   $ (1,564,000 )
Increase (decrease) in income taxes resulting from:
               
Benefit from state taxes
    (115,000 )     (276,000 )
Nondeductible expenses
    20,000       67,000  
Expiration of net operating loss carryforwards
    -       1,980,000  
Other timing differences
    -       (113,000 )
Increase (decrease) in valuation allowance
    750,000       (94,000 )
    $ -     $ -  
 
As of December 31, 2009, the Company had available federal net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $67,500,000 for future tax purposes that expire from 2010 to 2027.  The Company believes that Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code and the associated U.S. Treasury regulations will significantly limit the amount of net operating loss carryforward that the Company will be able to utilize in any tax year.  All losses incurred prior to the Company’s change of ownership event on June 27, 2005 totaled approximately $48,000,000.  The utilization of these losses is limited (by Internal Revenue Code Section 382) to approximately $950,000 per year through 2025.
 
A valuation allowance was established due to the uncertainty relating to the future utilization of net operating loss carryforwards.  The amount of the deferred tax assets considered realizable could be adjusted in the future based upon changes in circumstances that result in a change in our assessment of our ability to realize those deferred tax assets through the generation of taxable income or other tax events.
 
The Company accounts for all income taxes in accordance ASC 740 – Income Taxes which 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.  It requires that we recognize in our consolidated financial statements, only those tax positions that are “more-likely-than-not” of being sustained as of the adoption date, based on the technical merits of the position.  There are no unrecognized tax benefits in the Company’s financial statements as of December 31, 2009 and 2008.
 
The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and various state and local jurisdictions. As the Company has a federal Net Operating Loss carryforward from the year ended December 31, 1995 forward, all tax years from 1995 forward are subject to examination. As states have varying carryforward periods, and the Company has recently entered into additional states, the states are generally subject to examination for the previous 15 years or less.

 
45

 

The Company recognizes interest accrued, net of tax and penalties, related to unrecognized tax benefits as components of income tax provision as applicable. As of December 31, 2009, the Company did not have any accrued interest or penalties.
 
Note 10.  Related Party Transactions

The Company has incurred debt with related parties through several lending arrangements as further described in Note 4 Credit Agreements and Note 5 Long Term Debt.

Note 11.  Concentrations

The Company maintains cash in excess of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation limit of $250,000.  The Company has not experienced and does not anticipate such losses in these accounts.

For the year ended December 31, 2009, the Company had one customer which accounted for 18.79% of its total revenues for the year.  The receivable balance for this customer at December 31, 2009 was $178,792.  The Company had no customers which accounted for more than 10% of total revenues for the year ended December 31, 2008.

Note 12.  Legal Proceedings

The Company was not involved in any legal proceedings other than those involved in the ordinary course of business.

Note 13. Subsequent Events

The Company and Pro Tech Monitoring Inc. (“Pro Tech”) entered into a Confidential Patent License Agreement ("Patent License Agreement"), effective March 1, 2010, under which the Company was granted a limited license to provide certain technology to specific customers as agreed with Pro Tech. In addition, the Patent License Agreement  fixed the amount of  all royalties due Pro Tech for the limited license under the Patent License Agreement and all royalties due  under the November 27, 2007 Confidential  Settlement Agreement  at $650,000.

On February 24, 2010, the Company drew down $507,790 on the Equipment Term Loan with Crestpark LP, Inc.  After this draw, the outstanding balance on the Equipment Term Loan is $787,790 and the amount available to be drawn is $829,803.

The Company evaluates all subsequent events and transactions for potential recognition or disclosure in our financial statements.  Besides those noted above, there are no additional matters which require disclosure.
 
Note 14.  Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate fair value of each class of financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate that value:

Accounts receivable:  The carrying amount approximates fair value.

Long-term debt:  Based on the borrowing rates available to the Company for bank loans with similar terms and maturities, the carrying value approximates fair value due to the short maturity dates.

 
46

 

Accounts payable and accrued expenses:  The carrying amount approximates fair value.

Redeemable Exchangeable Series C Preferred Stock:  The Company estimates the fair value of this instrument to be approximately $17,700,000 at December 31, 2009 using a discount rate of 5%.
 
Item 9.  Changes In and Disagreements With Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure.
 
None.
 
Item 9A(T).  Controls and Procedures.
 
The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure that the information the Company must disclose in its filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission is recorded, processed, summarized and reported on a timely basis.  The Company's chief executive officer and chief financial officer have reviewed and evaluated the Company's disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act") as of the end of the period covered by this report (the "Evaluation Date").  Based upon that evaluation, the chief executive officer and the chief financial officer concluded that, as of the Evaluation Date, the Company's disclosure, controls and procedures are effective, providing them with information relating to the Company as required to be disclosed in the reports the Company files or submits under the Exchange Act on a timely basis.

Management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting.  Internal control over financial reporting is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the Company’s principal executive and principal financial officers and effected by the Company’s Board, management and other personnel to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with Accounting Principles Generally Accepted in the U.S. and includes those policies and procedures that:

·
pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company;
 
·
provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and Directors of the Company; and
 
·
provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
 
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements.  Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risks that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
 
The Company’s management assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2009.  In making this assessment, the Company’s management used criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework.  Based on its assessment, the Company’s management believes that, as of December 31, 2009, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was effective based on that criteria.

 
47

 
 
This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management’s report in this annual report.
 
There have not been any changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f)) that occurred during the Company's most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.
