Recent Developments.


 

The following are the business developments during the fiscal year that ended March 31, 2010 (FY2010):


We continued to explore potential mergers, acquisitions, and partnerships during FY2010, seeking opportunities and values that would strengthen PCS Edventures and advance shareholder value through improved sales and marketing, development, or operational efficiency.  


We continued to grow our long term relationship with Edison schools in 2010, providing additional customized learning labs for their summer adventures programs as well as supplying them with materials authored and developed in previous years. Edison schools has been the resource of over $1MM in revenue since the inception of the relationship. Edison programs developed by PCS range from primary stage camps in life science and biology to high school age activities in engineering, electronics, and robotics. Development, packaging, fulfillment, and support were further streamlined this year to improve efficiency and the overall customer experience.


Our LabMentors division had revenue growth of 119% during FY2010.  This growth was due to new and enhanced products and relationship strengthening with Cengage and DeVry. These relationships along with other existing customers including community colleges and technical schools continue to grow through the development and implementation of infrastructure expansion. and new products. LabMentors uses a combination of internal and outsourced resources, including offshore outsourcing, to maximize development efficiencies and time to market.    


PCS continues to strengthen and develop the core line of STEM products and services. Our Academy of Robotics was updated and enriched through the development of new curriculum and major technical upgrades. The upgrades included the implementation of cross-platform functionality supporting Linux systems and a functional prototype for the Apple.  The first volume of applied mathematics activities for Algebra 1 was completed. This series was developed by experts in the field of mathematics and in cooperation with the Boise School District.  In addition, extensive curriculum development around PCS early childhood materials and the BrickLab professional development programs were completed.


We were successful in the launch and implementation of pilot programs in Colegio Israelita and Aviation High School in Bisbane, Queensland. These programs were launched with our partners Inteltech, in Mexico and Intellecta Technologies Pty Ltd. in Australia.  In addition, we successfully completed the first phase of a pilot robotics competition program in Cairo, Egypt with our partners Integrated Care Society and Bibliotech Alexandria. The second phase of the pilot program is currently in the planning phase for the Egyptian school year 2010-2011. These programs will help to strengthen and expand our position in the international market.


We to continue to strengthen our relationship with Boise State University through the Idaho SySTEMic Institute.  This partnership provides teacher training and materials to develop and deploy research studies and to document the academic impact of the professional development program. . The Idaho SySTEMic Institute was expanded in the Meridian School District (Idaho).  PCS also received funding through the Idaho National Laboratory to expand the program into twenty classrooms in nearby rural school districts.  The research and results of these programs are used to enhance and improve our elementary product offerings.


Strategy.



 

Our strategy is to continue to design and develop educational products and services to the K-16 market that develop contemporary skills for the 21st century learner, including critical thinking, problem solving, innovation, creativity and communications.

Our strategy consists of:


q

Building strong and reliable relationships with customers

q

The continued offering of updated and contemporary products surrounding the STEM (science, technology, engineering, and math) disciplines



PAGE 5



q

Building PCS brand recognition and market appeal, and

q

Utilizing the Internet to bring our products and services to other areas, persons, and markets to increase market penetration.


Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk.


 

The Company sells many products throughout the international market, as well as having operations in Canada as a result of the acquisition of LabMentors.  As a result, our statement of cash flows and operating results could be affected by changes in foreign currency exchange rates or weak economies of foreign countries. Working capital necessary to continue operating our foreign subsidiary are held in local, Canadian currency, with additional funds utilized through the parent company being held in U.S. dollars. In accordance with SFAS 52, “Foreign Currency Translation,” all assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rate on the balance sheet date and all revenues and expenditures are translated at the average rate for the year. Translation adjustments are reflected as a separate component of stockholders' equity accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and the net change for the year reflected separately in the statements of operations and other comprehensive income (loss). Our subsidiary is not a significant component of our business and as such the risk associated therewith is minimal.


Backlog.


 

Our unearned revenue was $105,669 at the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010. The unearned revenue was $97,603 for the same period ending March 31, 2009. At the end of fiscal year 2010, the entire amount of unearned revenue is expected to be earned during fiscal years 2011 and 2012. All amounts listed in unearned revenue are for license fees paid but that have yet to be fully utilized by our customers. Each month, the license fees are amortized according to the length of the subscription/license.


Seasonality.


 

Our quarterly operating results fluctuate as a result of a number of factors, including, but not limited to, the funding of customers, timing of product development and release, availability and timeliness of items required for assembly of the products, budget cycles, period ending dates, and the general health of the local and national economy.

Markets.


 

The educational market represents significant business opportunities in the US.  There are several segments within the educational market that can benefit from the products and services that PCS provides.  PCS has developed sales and marketing strategies to position the Company and its products to meet the needs of specific segments in the education market.

.

There is increasing focus and importance being placed on the role of technology in both public and private education.  Educators and parents are not only striving to integrate technology into the educational experiences of students, but also needing to increase student’s performance in technology-based subjects such as Engineering, Mathematics and Science.  Public schools are trying to increase their ability to deliver technology education effectively to students.  The increased value being placed on technology in the classroom has also led to an increase in growth for private and charter school alternatives that can offer better programs for Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) education.  Growth of extended learning programs continues as well.  Federally funded programs that include before, after and summer school programs have also remained an important educational focus and are also expected to meet demands for technology.


PCS’ understanding of the complexities of STEM subjects and our progressive methodologies give us a unique ability to deliver solutions for educators to meet the growing demands of teaching STEM and integrating technology into classrooms. As a means of meeting this need, PCS has identified and is targeting three main domestic markets as well as the international market, K6 for the elementary classroom, tech ed for grades 6-12, and afterschool programs, for all ages as relevant.

(vi) In order to facilitate future revenue growth PCS engaged in an in-depth review of our “go to market” strategy, which resulted in a shift to re-focus the delivery of our unique capabilities to meet the needs of the market. We have ceased direct sales based on geographical regions and have moved into four (4) Strategic Business Units (SBUs), in addition to our wholly owned subsidiary LabMentors.  We currently have six (6) in-house sales employees, consisting of three (3) SBU Vice Presidents/Managers, two (2) Jr. Sales Associates, and one (1) telemarketer. In addition there are approximately eight (8) independent sales representatives.  The independent sales representatives are utilized and managed by the SBU Vice Presidents.


To help facilitate the implementation of this strategy we contracted with Mr. Glenn McCandless, of Focus Marketing. Mr. Candless has over 25 years of proven industry experience, including 10 years of education marketing,



PAGE 11



sales, and channel management at Apple and 15 years as President of Focus Marketing, a sales, marketing, and business development consulting firm specializing in the educational market. Mr. McCandless will act as Interim Vice President of Marketing, through FY2011.


The SBUs have been constructed to meet the market needs as follows:

Status of any Publicly Announced New Product or Service.



In August of 2009, PCS successfully completed a new enrichment robotics curriculum and updated Academy of Robotics program using LEGO® components.  


In September of 2009, PCS announced that development integrating PCS robotic control components with the Minds-i system had begun. This integration will enable the control of brushless motors, high torque servos, and ultrasonic ranging devices to meet advanced technical requests from high school and university customers.


In September 2009, PCS developed in conjunction with outside consultants; the Spanish language version of it's 4th Grade BrickLab, Survey curriculum, and multiple activities from its engineering and robotics programs to support the educators in Colegio Israelito. We believe this development will help strengthen relations in the Mexico region and allow for additional growth.


In September 2009, PCS developed a comprehensive technology education solution for educators in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. The solution was implemented into grades 4 and 7 of the al Riyadh schools.  The yearlong curriculum focused on the use of K'NEX materials, PCS BrickLab, and the Academy of Robotics and integrated hands-on, project based learning approaches.


In October 2009, PCS developed a number of K'NEX activities for classroom use that integrate computer control using PCS Robotics products including the PCS Brain and Cortex. These activities will help students and educators in the understanding and implementation of Robotics for the 21st Century.  During the course of this development process new CAD library files and development processes were created contributing to available development resources that will make future development more efficient.


In October of 2009, PCS released a Robotics Educator Pack that includes PCS robotics materials and manipulatives sufficient for a two-student team to participate in robotics activities and competitions.  In January of 2010, PCS completed its first volume of applied mathematics activities that extend upon the Academy of Robotics curriculum. This Algebra I activity series was developed by Idaho Math experts and in cooperation with the Boise School District who were trained on the materials in the Spring 2010 school semester in two junior high schools.


In October 2009, the PCS BrickLab and surrounding professional development program expanded new and enhanced curriculum formats, new lesson plans, and refined training approaches.  A body of research produced by Boise State University in the Idaho SySTEMic Institute has helped to drive the research-based improvements to the overall process and experience for educators.


Competitive Business Conditions and the Small Business Issuer's Competitive Position in the Industry and Methods of Competition.



The education industry is highly competitive and is rapidly evolving around the STEM disciplines. We expected the industry to undergo significant and rapid technology change.  The Nationwide economic difficulties are causing budget deficits, teacher layoffs, and program reductions, which may impede industry growth.  


Competitors in the STEM marketplace include a variety of publishers, technical education companies, and non-profit solution providers including Ptisco, LabVolt, Pasco, LEGO Education, McGraw Hill, and Project Lead the Way. These companies along with new entrants into the market may develop products and services and technologies superior to our products that may result in our products and services becoming less competitive. Many of the companies that are established or are entering the market have substantially greater financial, manufacturing, marketing, technical resources, and established historical channels than we have and represent significant long-term competition. To the extent that these companies offer comparable products and services at lower prices or higher quality and more cost effective, our business could be adversely affected.



PAGE 13




Potential Competitive Advantages.



We believe that we have certain competitive advantages that we will attempt to maximize in developing and implementing our business strategy.


High barriers exist to entry. PCS' educational programs are innovative, unique and based on over 20 years of experience and product development. Barriers to entry for competitive products that are time tested are extremely high. Early and significant market penetration will guarantee “first and best” name recognition for the types of educational services that PCS will deliver.


Use of  the Internet as a delivery and support mechanism for the programs. By leveraging our extensive expertise in Internet technology, PCS achieves the following significant advantages: (1) a high level of program control; (2) the building of a significant data model regarding program usage; and (3) a direct channel to our users. Each of these advantages provides tangible long-term benefits to the Company.


Organic expansion of program offerings.  After implementing and proving a successful program model, PCS will leverage its high level of customer satisfaction to expand current and additional programs designed to integrate seamlessly into the already deployed sites. This creates a long-term growth strategy that includes new and residual sales to an ever-growing list of customers.


Flexibility of products and staff to align STEM solutions to multiple types of users.  Our in-house intellectual capital has experience in a variety of educational environments and has demonstrated an ability to create highly effective solutions for specific niche markets.  This extensive experience in STEM education provides PCS with an advantage over competitors with less experience in STEM education.


PCS believes the contiguous nature of the PCS System provides a strong competitive advantage over other companies who may have single product offerings or products with no systemic approach or plan.  PCS has created a contiguous STEM solution beginning at the PreK level and extending through high school.  School districts seeking a systemic approach to STEM education will find the PCS approach comprehensive.


Sources and Availability of Raw Materials and the Names of Principal Suppliers.


 

None, not applicable.


Dependence on One or a Few Major Customers.


 

In general, PCS does not rely on one or a few major customers. However, PCS LabMentors has two major customers that make up the majority of its revenue stream, namely Cengage Learning, previously known as Thomson Course Technology, and DeVry University.

Need for any Government Approval of Principal Products or Services.


 

None, not applicable.


Effect of Existing or Probable Governmental Regulations on the Business.



 Exchange Act.


We are subject to the following regulations of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and applicable securities laws, rules and regulations promulgated under the Exchange Act by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).  Compliance with these requirements of the Exchange Act will also substantially increase our legal and accounting costs.


Smaller Reporting Company.


We are subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 of the Exchange Act, and subject to the disclosure requirements of Regulation S-K of the SEC, as a “smaller reporting company.”  That designation will relieve us of some of the informational requirements of Regulation S-K.


Sarbanes-Oxley Act.


Pursuant to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, beginning with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2010, we are required to furnish a report by our management on our internal control over financial reporting. Despite the delay in implementation by the SEC for smaller reporting companies, the Chief Compliance Officer undertook a review of the Company’s internal controls during FY2010 and furnished a copy for review by all directors and management.  This action will allow us to obtain feedback from the auditors, board of directors, and other management to assist in the implementation of additional controls, where needed.


Management acknowledges its responsibility for internal controls over financial reporting and seeks to continually improve those controls, in order to achieve compliance with Section 404. During the fiscal year ending March 31, 2010, our controller along with management have engaged in the process of documenting and evaluating our internal control over financial reporting. In this regard, management is of adopting a detailed work plan to (i) assess and document the adequacy of internal control over financial reporting, (ii) take steps to improve control processes where appropriate, (iii) validate through testing that controls are functioning as documented, and (iv) implement a continuous reporting and improvement process for internal control over financial reporting. Despite our efforts, we can provide no assurance as to our conclusions as of March 31, 2010 with respect to the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting under Section 404. There is a risk that neither our independent auditors nor we will be able to conclude at or around March 31, 2010 that our internal controls over financial reporting are effective as required by Section 404. This could result in an adverse reaction in the financial markets due to a loss of confidence in the reliability of our financial statements. The Controller and management intend to take every step necessary to ensure compliance with Section 404.


“Penny Stock” Designation.

 

Our common stock is “penny stock” as defined in Rule 3a51-1 of the SEC. Penny stocks are stocks:

·

with a price of less than five dollars per share;



PAGE 16



·

that are not traded on a “recognized” national exchange;

·

whose prices are not quoted on the NASDAQ automated quotation system; or

·

within issuers with net tangible assets less than $2,000,000, if the issuer has been in continuous operation for at least three years, or $5,000,000, if in continuous operation for less than three years, or with average revenues of less than $6,000,000 for the last three years.


Section 15(g) of the Exchange Act and Rule 15g-2 of the SEC require broker/dealers dealing in penny stocks to provide potential investors with a document disclosing the risks of penny stocks and to obtain a manually signed and dated written receipt of the document before making any transaction in a penny stock for the investor's account. You are urged to obtain and read this disclosure carefully before purchasing any of our shares. Rule 15g-9 of the SEC requires broker/dealers in penny stocks to approve the account of any investor for transactions in these stocks before selling any penny stock to that investor. This procedure requires the broker/dealer to:


·

get information about the investor's financial situation, investment experience, and investment goals;

·

reasonably determine, based on that information, that transactions in penny stocks are suitable for the investor and that the investor can evaluate the risks of penny stock transactions;

·

provide the investor with a written statement setting forth the basis on which the broker/dealer made his or her determination; and

·

receive a signed and dated copy of the statement from the investor, confirming that it accurately reflects the investor's financial situation, investment experience, and investment goals.


Compliance with these requirements may make it harder for our stockholders to resell their shares.


Reporting Obligations.

 

Section 14(a) of the Exchange Act requires all companies with securities registered pursuant to Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act to comply with the rules and regulations of the SEC  regarding proxy solicitations, as outlined in Regulation 14A. Matters submitted to stockholders of our Company at a special or annual meeting thereof or pursuant to a written consent will require our Company to provide our stockholders with the information outlined in Schedules 14A or 14C of Regulation 14; preliminary copies of this information must be submitted to the SEC at least 10 days prior to the date that definitive copies of this information are forwarded to our stockholders.


Prior to 2008 we were required to file annual reports on Form 10-KSB and quarterly reports on Form 10-QSB. Effective with our 2009 annual report we will report on Form 10-K and quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, with the SEC on a regular basis, and will be required to timely disclose certain material events (e.g., changes in corporate control; acquisitions or dispositions of a significant amount of assets other than in the ordinary course of business; and bankruptcy) in a current report on Form 8-K.


Research and Development Expenses.



PCS LabMentors, Ltd. utilizes the Scientific Research & Experimental Development (“SR&ED“) credits, which can allow for tax credits to Canadian companies. SR&ED is a refundable tax credit program offered by the Canada Revenue Agency (“CRA”) to provide incentive for companies to undertake development activities in Canada. There are stringent reporting criteria to complete the filings to be reimbursed and to apply for these credits.  The Company receives a percentage of the total approved qualifying expenses submitted to Revenue Canada.  The percentage for the period ending March 31 2010 was estimated at approximately 18%.  The Company estimated $14,452 as Other Income for the SR&ED payment received.

Item 3. Legal Proceedings.


(i). PCS Edventures!.com Inc., v. Jackie DeLuna and Infusing Technology K12, (United States District Court for the district of Idaho, Case NO. CV-08-00379-BLW).  The Company initiated this trademark infringement suit against defendants. Defendants asserted counterclaims for trademark and copyright infringement, misappropriation of trade secrets, and breach of contract claims based on alleged underpayment of royalties under two license agreements with the Company and sought an accounting.  The parties settled their dispute pursuant to an agreement that does not involve payment of money by either party.  The Court dismissed the case with prejudice on November 9, 2009.  


(ii)  Status of SEC Proceedings:  As previously reported, the staff of the SEC’s Salt Lake City, Utah, regional  office (“Staff”) has been conducting a non-public investigation to determine whether the Company and/or members of its management or staff violated certain provisions of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 (“Exchange Act”).  Information about the investigation was previously disclosed in Part I Item 3 of PCS’ 10-K Annual Report for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2009, in Part II Item 1 of its 10-Q Quarterly Reports for the quarters ended June 30, 2009 and September 30, 2009, and in footnotes to PCS’ consolidated financial statements contained in those reports.  PCS has cooperated fully in providing information and documentation to the SEC Staff during the SEC’s investigation.


The SEC investigation relates to disclosures made by the Company in its 8-K Current Report dated March 27, 2007 concerning its March 28, 2007 press release that announced a License Agreement with Global Techniques dba PCS Middle East (“PCS ME”).  The investigation has focused on SEC rules promulgated under the Exchange Act respecting book and record-keeping procedures, internal controls, and certain matters related to the Company’s relationships with its prior auditors, all apparently related to the PCS ME disclosures and agreements and the accounting treatment of these matters, and to sales of shares of the Company’s common stock by members of management following the issuance of the press release.  


The amount due under the License Agreement was not paid when due, as disclosed in the Company’s 8-K/A Current Report dated March 27, 2007 and filed with the SEC on May 17, 2007.  Members of management sold an aggregate of 161,500 shares of the Company’s common stock between April 2, 2007 and May 9, 2007, for total proceeds of $330,460. The License Agreement revenue was never booked in the Company’s public financial statements, as the payment was not received by the time the audit of the Company’s March 31, 2007 fiscal year end financial statements was completed.  


The Company had a prior five year relationship with PCS ME at the time of the announcement of the License Agreement, including implementation of several pilot programs in Saudi Arabia schools in 2005 and 2006 and receipt of a December 27, 2006 letter from the Saudi Ministry of Education to the Ministry of Education Contacting Department supporting PCS proposals advanced by PCS ME.  The Company has continued the licensing of its educational products in the Middle East with PCS ME, having sold additional PCS products to PCS ME for approximately $160,000 since 2007. The Company extended a $250,000 loan jointly to PCS ME and its principal owner, Mohamed Yasser Refai, on or about October 1, 2007, as disclosed in the Company’s 8-K Current Report of that date. The loan was due on the earlier of the payment of the License Agreement or January 31, 2008, and was secured by an Assignment of Equity amounting to a 25% interest in PCS ME. However, that interest was not perfected.  Because the $250,000 loan to PCS ME was not paid when due, it was written off as of December 31, 2007, The Company had and currently has no interest in PCS ME.  The Company and PCS ME continue to work on completing the entire License Agreement disclosed on March 27, 2007 and the over-all project in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia that is tied to that agreement.  


Depositions of certain directors and executive officers were taken by the SEC staff in late June 2009, and focused on what the SEC apparently believes to be discrepancies in the factors upon which the Company relied in forming its reasonable basis for announcing the License Agreement (including that payment under the License PCS Agreement was contingent upon PCS ME obtaining payment from the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia that would become the end-user of the Company’s products, which the Company believed was imminent),  along with auditor and internal control concerns about whether the License Agreement was collectible or bookable, and the sales of shares of the Company’s common stock by certain members of management during this period.


As reported in the Company’s Form 8-K Current Report filed October 19, 2009 and the press release filed as an exhibit to that report,  the Company received a “Wells Notice“ on October 16, 2009  informing PCS of the Staff’s intention to recommend to the Commission that the SEC bring a civil injunctive action against PCS alleging that it



PAGE 19



violated Sections 10(b), 13(a), 13(b)(2)(A) and 13(b)(2)(B) of the Exchange and Rules 10b-5, 12b-20, 13a-1 and 13a-11 thereunder in connection with the disclosures made by the Company in its 8-K Current Report dated March 27, 2007 and in the related Press Release that announced the PCS ME License Agreement, subsequent sales of PCS stock by certain PCS officers and directors, book and record-keeping procedures and internal controls relating to revenue recognition from the License Agreement, and later disclosures concerning the License Agreement.   Wells Notices were also issued to the Chairman of the Board/Chief Executive Officer; the Executive Vice President/Chief Technology Officer; a Director; and a former officer.  


In connection with the contemplated recommendation, the Staff may seek remedies including, among other things, a permanent injunction against future violations of federal securities laws, civil monetary penalties and, in the case of the individual Wells Notice recipients, disgorgement of PCS stock sale proceeds and a bar against continued service as officers or directors of PCS.  

 

Under a process established by the SEC, PCS and each of the other recipients of the Wells Notices had the opportunity to submit any reasons of law, policy or fact why they believe that a civil injunctive action should not be brought (a “Wells Submission“) before the Staff makes its recommendation to the Commission regarding what action, if any, should be brought. PCS and the other Wells Notice recipients made their respective Wells Submissions in December 2009. As of the date of this Annual Report, the Company has not received any communication from the Staff in response to the Wells Submissions.   There can be no assurance that the SEC will not decide to bring an action against PCS and/or the officers and directors who have also received Wells Notices.


Under its bylaws, PCS is obligated, subject to certain exceptions and conditions, to indemnify and advance expenses to current and former officers and directors in connection with the SEC investigation and any subsequent SEC enforcement actions.  The costs incurred by PCS in addressing the SEC investigation and possible enforcement proceedings, including the anticipated costs of indemnification of PCS’ officers and directors, have had, and if the SEC staff recommends commencement of an SEC enforcement action will likely continue to have, a material adverse effect on PCS’ business, financial position, results of operations and cash flows (including its liquidity and its plan of operation as outlined in management’s discussion and analysis in PCS’ most recent 10-K and 10-Q Reports, including this Annual Report).  The investigation and possible enforcement proceedings could result in adverse publicity and divert the efforts and attention of PCS’ executive management team from ordinary business operations.  


PCS’ directors and officers insurance carrier has denied coverage of any claims relating to the SEC investigation, including defense costs, based on its contention that PCS did not give the insurer timely notice of the SEC’s formal non-public order commencing the investigation or the related issuance of subpoenas by the SEC.  PCS disagrees with the carrier’s coverage position and is considering litigation to require the insurer to satisfy its contractual obligations.  There can be no assurance that the insurer will reimburse the legal expenses associated with the SEC investigation or any subsequent enforcement action that may be commenced in the future.

Plan of Operation.


 

PCS researched and studied effective and efficient competitive market strategies and benchmarks during FY2010. As a result of the research PCS has restructured the marketing and sales departments in order to become a more customer and marketing driven company. This will increase our market penetration and allow for stronger and recurring customer relationships.


The restructure was implemented in two phases.  The first phase required the reorganization of the sales department. We have discontinued direct sales based on geographical regions and have moved into four (4) distinct Strategic Business Units (SBUs). The SBUs will target specific markets.  The targeted markets are:


1)

K6 programs for the elementary classroom

2)

Tech Ed programs for grades 6-12

3)

Afterschool programs

4)

International services that provide K-16 educational solutions for the International market.


Under the new structure, PCS will continue with its core strength of STEM (science, technology, education, and math) products. The product offering will be specifically targeted within each SBU to better meet the needs of our customer and to enhance the customer experience, and strengthen customer relations. This will allow for PCS to penetrate additional market space in both the domestic and international markets, and allow for continued revenue growth. The second phase consisted of strengthening the marketing department. This allows for greater customer driven product,



PAGE 26



market benchmarking, and customer relations.  In order to meet this goal, PCS hired Mr. Glenn McCandless to act as Interim Vice President of Marketing, through FY2011. Mr. McCandless has over 25 years of proven industry experience, including 10 years of education marketing, sales, and channel management at Apple and 15 years as President of Focus Marketing, a sales, marketing, and business development consulting firm specializing in the educational market.


Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation.


 

Operating Results - Overview.


Fiscal year ended March 31, 2010 resulted in a net loss of ($1,871,467) as compared to the net loss during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2009 of ($1,957,753). This net loss is a decrease in loss of ($86,286) or approximately percent 4% from the net loss for fiscal year ended March 31, 2009. The Basic Loss per Share for fiscal year 2010 is ($0.05), which is consistent with the loss per share of ($0.05) for fiscal year 2009.  Details of changes in revenues and expenses can be found below.


Operating Results Revenues.



Consolidated revenues for the twelve-month period ended March 31, 2010, decreased to $2,394,406 or by ($466,933) (16%) as compared to $2,861,339 for the twelve-month period ended March 31, 2009. The decrease in revenue is due to a net change whereby PCS experienced a decrease of ($682,469) and LabMentors, our wholly owned subsidiary, had net increase of $215,536, over the same twelve month period for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2009. The losses of the parent company were due to changes in the federal and state funding schedules, hesitation surrounding the general economy, and a decrease in the expenditures of grant monies. LabMentors increase was due to an aggressive marketing strategy, new product development, and strong customer relations.


Operating Results Cost of Goods Sold/Cost of Sales.



Consolidated cost of goods sold for the twelve-month period ended March 31, 2010, decreased by $358,149 (26%) to $1,016,685 as compared to $1,374,834 for the twelve-month period ended March 31, 2009. Included in PCS’ cost of goods sold are variable costs including sales commissions, shipping expenses, and product royalty payments, which have all declined due to the decrease in sales. In addition, LabMentors has minimal variable costs. Due to their revenue increase, as stated above, and low variable costs the increase in COGS is not in the same proportion to the increase in sales.  


Operating Results Operating Expenses.



Operating expenses for the twelve-month period ended March 31, 2010, increased by $89,882 (3%) to $3,291,473 as compared to $3,201,591 for the twelve-month period ended March 31, 2009.

1)

Monthly compensation for the Board of Directors increased by $5,000 per month. Mr. Michael McMurray received additional compensation due to services rendered during Mr. Maher’s medical absence.

2)

Legal expenses increased due to “Wells Notification” and response.

3)

Sales and Marketing expenses decreased due to a concentrated effort on selective trade shows and building in-house customer relations.

4)

The legal settlement is a non-recurring event.

5)

The annual amortization of Option/Warrant expense has deceased due to old options being fully expensed. There were no new options or warrants granted in FY2010.


Liquidity.


 

As of the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010, we had $290,141 in cash, with total current assets of $801,462 and total current liabilities of $432,859. We have an accumulated deficit of ($32,678,949) and shareholder’s equity of $950,711.


The Company has a current ratio of 1.85. The current ratio for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2009 was 2.43. The ratio indicates that despite the difficult economic environment, we have effectively managed working capital and debt. We have utilized the current ratio over a quick ratio due to the fact that most items in inventory are easily saleable should the need to liquidate arise.


The Company has working capital of $368,603 at March 31, 2010. The working capital indicates that our ability to pay current debt obligations through our current assets is favorable. The working capital for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2009 was $693,772. This decrease was due primarily to the fiscal year 2010 decrease in sales.


Critical Accounting Policies.


 

Estimates.



Our discussion herein and analysis thereof is based upon our financial statements in Item 7 below, which have been prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principals of the United States (GAAP). The preparation of these statements requires management to make estimates and best judgments that affect the reported amounts. See Note 2 contained in Item 7 for additional discussions of these and other accounting policies and disclosures required by GAAP.


Concentration of Credit Risks and Significant Customers.



The Company maintains cash in bank deposit accounts, which, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes it is not exposed to any significant credit risk on cash and cash equivalents.


Financial instruments, which potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk, consist primarily of trade receivables. In the normal course of business, the Company provides credit terms to its customers. Accordingly, the Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and maintains allowances for possible losses which when realized have been within the range of management's expectations. The Company does not require collateral from its customers.


During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010, the Company had sales to two major customers that accounted for 14% and 11% of total revenue. See note 2 to the financial statements for additional information.



PAGE 28




Fair Value of Financial Instruments.

 

The Company includes fair value information in the notes to financial statements when the fair value of its financial instruments is different from the book value.  When the book value approximates fair value, no additional disclosure is made.


Foreign Currency Translation.



The functional currency of the Company is the U.S. dollar. The Company’s financial statements include translations for the LabMentors subsidiary, which are maintained in Canadian dollars. All assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rate on the balance sheet date and all revenues and expenditures are translated at the average rate for the period. Translation adjustments are reflected as a separate component of stockholders' equity, accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), and the net change for the year reflected separately in the statements of operations and other comprehensive income (loss).


In accordance with the financial accounting standard pertaining to the “Statement of Cash Flows,” the cash flows of the Company are translated using the weighted average exchange rates during the respective period. As a result, amounts in the statement of cash flows related to changes in assets and liabilities will not necessarily agree with the changes in the corresponding balances on the balance sheet that were translated at the exchange rate at the end of the period.


Educational Software.



The Company's inventory consists partially of internally developed education computer programs and exercises to be accessed on the Internet. In accordance with the financial accounting standard pertaining to internally developed software, the costs associated with research and initial feasibility of the programs and exercises are expensed as incurred. Once economic feasibility has been determined, the costs to develop the programs and exercises are capitalized until they are ready for sale and access and are reported at the lower of unamortized cost or net realizable value. Capitalized program and exercise inventory are amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the program or exercise, generally 24 to 48 months.


Intellectual Property.



The Company's intellectual property consists of capitalized costs associated with the development of the Internet software and delivery platform developed by the Company to enable access to the various educational programs and exercises developed by the Company. In accordance with generally accepted accounting principles as discussed previously regarding inventory, the initial costs associated with researching the delivery platform and methods were expensed until economic feasibility and acceptance were determined. Thereafter, costs incurred to develop the Internet online delivery platform and related environments were capitalized until ready for use and able to deliver and access the Company's educational programs and exercises. Costs incurred thereafter to maintain the delivery and access platform are expensed as incurred. These capitalized costs were  amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the Company’s delivery and access platform that was  determined to be 60 months. As of March 31, 2010 Intellectual Property was fully amortized.


Property and Equipment.



Property and equipment are recorded at cost and are being depreciated for financial accounting purposes on the straight-line method over their respective estimated useful lives ranging from three to seven years. Upon retirement or other disposition of these assets, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and the resulting gains or losses are reflected in the results of operations.



PAGE 29




Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to operations. Renewals and betterments are capitalized.


Goodwill and Intangible Assets.



We recorded our acquisition of LabMentors in accordance with the financial accounting standards issued by the FASB.  We allocate the cost of acquired companies to the tangible and identified intangible assets and liabilities acquired with the remaining amount being recorded as goodwill. Certain intangible assets, such as acquired technology, are amortized (see Intellectual Property above).


The most recent acquisition did not have significant tangible assets, and, as a result, the majority of the purchase price was allocated to goodwill, which increases the potential for impairment charges that we may incur in the future.


We account for goodwill and other intangible assets in accordance with  the financial accounting standards issued by the FASB pertaining to “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.” Under this standard, goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives are not amortized to expense and must be reviewed for impairment annually, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that impairment might have occurred. The first step used to identify potential impairment is the comparison of the fair value of the item with its carrying amount, including goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives. We operate as one company, and, therefore, compare our book value to market value, which management must determine upon review based on similar transactions. If our fair value exceeds our book value, our goodwill is considered not impaired. If the book value exceeds the fair value, the goodwill is considered impaired and management must measure the amount of impairment loss, if any. For the measurement step, if the carrying amount of the goodwill exceeds the estimated fair value of the goodwill, an impairment loss would be recognized in an amount equal to that excess. The fair value estimate requires that future cash flows relating to the acquisition, in this case, be forecasted. These forecasts require management to make assumptions on the future sale of current and future products and services, future market conditions, technological advances, future growth rates, and discount rates utilized. Any loss recognized cannot exceed the carrying amount of the goodwill. After an impairment loss is recognized, the adjusted carrying amount of goodwill is its new accounting basis.


We hired an outside independent accounting firm specializing in fair value evaluations to analyze and perform the impairment review. After reviewing current operating losses and future growth potential of the subsidiary, the Company determined that an impairment was not required..


Options/Warrants and Shares Issued for Services.



On January 1, 2006, the Company adopted the accounting standard pertaining to “Accounting for Stock Based Compensation,” which establishes accounting for stock-based payment transactions for employee services and goods and services received from non-employees. The Company is required to recognize expense of options or similar equity instruments issued to employees using the fair-value-based method of accounting for stock-based payments.  This standard covers a wide range of share-based compensation arrangements including share options, restricted share plans, performance-based awards, share appreciation rights, and employee share purchase plans. Application of this pronouncement requires significant judgment regarding the assumptions used in the selected option pricing model, including stock price volatility and employee exercise behavior. Most of these inputs are either highly dependent on the current economic environment at the date of grant or forward-looking over the expected term of the award.


The Company accounts for shares issued to employees and others based upon the closing price of our common stock as of the grant date.


Acquisitions.



Our acquisition strategy is to acquire companies and/or assets that continue to increase our product depth, market penetration, and synergies within the Company. The Company has made one asset purchase acquisition over the

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM


To the Board of Directors

PCS Edventures!.com, Inc. and Subsidiary

Boise, Idaho



We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of PCS Edventures!.com, Inc. and Subsidiary (the “Company”) as of March 31, 2010 and 2009 and the related statements of operations, shareholders' equity and cash flows for the twelve month periods 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 audit.


We conducted our audit in accordance with 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. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. 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 significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.


In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of PCS Edventures!.com, Inc. and Subsidiary as of March 31, 2010 and 2009 and the results of its operations and cash flows for the periods described above in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.


The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 15 to the financial statements, the Company has suffered reoccurring losses and negative cash flow from operations, both of which raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.  Management’s plans regarding those matters also are described in Note 15.  The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

March 31, 2010 and 2009


NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS



The consolidated financial statements presented are those of PCS Edventures!.com, Inc., an Idaho Corporation, and its wholly owned subsidiary, PCS LabMentors, Ltd., a Canadian company (collectively, “the Company”).


On August 3, 1994, PCS Edventures!.com, Inc. was incorporated under the laws of Idaho to engage in web-based and site-licensable educational products.


In October 1994, an agreement was authorized allowing the Company to exchange, on a one-for-one basis, common stock for stock of PCS Schools, Inc. As a result of this agreement, PCS Schools, Inc. became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.  In the late 1990s, the Company divested the stand-alone learning labs to focus more on a hands-on module coupled with web-based technology for use in the classroom.


On March 27, 2000, the Company changed its name from PCS Education Systems, Inc. to PCS Edventures!.com, Inc.


On November 30, 2005, the Company entered into an agreement with 511092 N.B. LTD. dba LabMentors to exchange PCS stock for stock of 511092 N.B. LTD. as disclosed in the 8-K as filed with the SEC on December 9, 2005 and amended on February 15, 2006.  As a result of the Share Exchange Agreement, 511092 N.B. LTD. became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.  In December 2005, the name of this subsidiary was formally changed to PCS LabMentors, Ltd. It remained a Canadian corporation.


NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES



a. Accounting Method


The Company's consolidated financial statements are prepared using the accrual method of accounting. The Company has elected a March 31 year-end.


b. Estimates


The preparation of financial statements in conformity with Generally Accepted Accounting Principals requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.


c. Concentration of Credit Risks and Significant Customers


The Company maintains cash in bank deposit accounts, which, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes it is not exposed to any significant credit risk on cash and cash equivalents.


Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consist primarily of trade receivables. In the normal course of business, the Company provides credit terms to its customers. Accordingly, the



PAGE 40

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

March 31, 2010 and 2009


c. Concentration of Credit Risks and Significant Customers (continued)


Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and maintains allowances for possible losses which when realized have been within the range of management's expectations. The Company does not require collateral from its customers. The Company has established an allowance for doubtful accounts of $4,271and $1,573 for the years ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.


During the last two fiscal years ending March 31, 2010 and March 31, 2009, there were two major customer that exceeded 10% of revenue:

                             -   


d. Foreign Currency Translation


The functional currency of our subsidiary is considered the local currency. Our PCS LabMentors' subsidiary has a functional currency in Canadian dollars ($CDN). The subsidiary’s financial statements have been translated into US dollars in accordance with generally accepted accounting principals regarding foreign currency translation All assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rate on the balance sheet date and all revenues and expenditures are translated at the average rate for the year. Translation adjustments are reflected as a separate component of stockholders' equity, accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and the net change for the year reflected separately in the statements of operations and other comprehensive income (loss). Through this, all of the Company’s financial documents are stated within the functional currency of the parent company, which is the United States dollar ($USD).


In accordance with generally accepted accounting principals regarding the presentation of the “Statement of Cash Flows,” the cash flows of the subsidiary are translated using the weighted average exchange rates during the respective period. As a result, amounts in the statement of cash flows related to changes in assets and liabilities will not necessarily agree with the changes in the corresponding balances on the balance sheet that was translated at the exchange rate at the end of the period.


e. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The Company adopted the standard issued by the FASB, which clarifies the definition of fair value, prescribes methods for measuring fair value, and establishes a fair value hierarchy to classify the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:



PAGE 41



PCS EDVENTURES!.COM, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

March 31, 2010 and 2009


e. Fair Value of Financial Instruments (continued)


Level 1-Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities available at the measurement date.


Level 2-Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other then quoted prices that are observable, and inputs derived from or corroborated by observable market data.


Level 3-Inputs are unobservable inputs which reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions on what assumptions the market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on the best available information.


The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheets for cash, accounts receivable, loans payable, and accounts payable and accrued expenses, approximate their fair market value based on the short-term maturity of these instruments.


The following table presents assets and liabilities that are measured and recognized at fair value as of March 31, 2010 on a non-recurring basis:

$                   -


The standard issued by the FASB concerning the fair value option for financial assets and liabilities, became effective for the Company on January 1, 2008. The standard establishes a fair value option that permits entities to choose to measure eligible financial instruments and certain other items at fair value at specified election dates. A business entity shall report unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value options have been elected in earnings at each subsequent reporting date. For the periods ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 there were no applicable items on which the fair value option was elected.


f. Revenue Recognition


PCS recognizes revenue for its three (3) revenue streams: Product (Learning Labs)and Licensing in accordance with generally accepted accounting standards pertaining to revenue recognition of single unit and/or multiple deliverables.


Effective April 1, 2009, the Company changed its revenue recognition policy to recognize product revenue in accordance with generally accepted accounting standards,  in which revenue is recognized when it is realizable and when earned. We believe this change to be more conservative and will not create a material effect on our financial statements. In addition, it will allow for revenue to be uniformly applied Company wide and allow for greater transparency to users of the financial statements, in that it is less complicated and a more commonly used manner of recognition.


Licensing Revenue is in relation to the sales of the learning labs. This revenue is based on a contractual term of 1 year, which begins when the physical lab is delivered to the customer. Should the customer terminate the licensing prior to the expiration of the contract, PCS does not have an obligation to refund any portion of the fees. As such, revenue is amortized and recorded over the life of the contractual license, in accordance with generally accepted accounting standards


g. Goodwill


Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of PCS LabMentors' acquisition over the net of the amounts assigned to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The Company accounts for its goodwill in accordance with generally




PAGE 42



PCS EDVENTURES!.COM, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

March 31, 2010 and 2009


accepted accounting standards, which requires the Company to test goodwill for impairment annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable, rather than amortize.


The entire goodwill balance of $202,688 at March 31, 2010, which is not deductible for tax purposes due to the purchase being completed through the exchange of stock, is related to the Company's acquisition of PCS LabMentors in November 2005.  With the acquisition of PCS LabMentors the Company gained LabMentors' significant interest in the technical college market and increased the products available to educational outlets. The Company also obtained the information technology and programming expertise of LabMentors' workforce, gained additional cost optimization, and gained greater market flexibility in optimizing market information and access to collegiate level sales.


Generally accepted accounting standards require that a two-step impairment test be performed annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. The first step of the test for impairment compares the book value of the Company to its estimated fair value. The second step of the goodwill impairment test, which is only required when the net book value of the item exceeds the fair value, compares the implied fair value of goodwill to its book value to determine if an impairment is required.


The Company tested for impairment of our goodwill at March 31, 2010 and 2009 and determined that an impairment was not necessary at March 31, 2010 and an impairment loss in the amount of $282,550 at March 31, 2009.


h. Business Combinations


There were no business combinations during the fiscal years ended March 31, 2010 and 2009.


i. Principles of Consolidation


The accompanying consolidated financial statements consolidate the accounts of the parent company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated through consolidation.


j. Provision for Income Taxes


Deferred income taxes are provided using the liability method whereby 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 the changes in tax laws and rates as of the date of enactment.

 

Net deferred tax liabilities consist of the following components as of March 31, 2010 and 2009:

j. Provision for Income Taxes (Continued)


The income tax provision differs from the amount of income tax determined by applying the U.S. federal income tax rate to pretax income from continuing operations as detailed in the following table for the years ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 due to the following:

At March 31, 2010 the Company had net operating loss carry forward of approximately $10,982,772 that may be offset against future taxable income from the year 2009 through 2029. No tax benefit has been reported in the March 31, 2010 consolidated financial statements since the potential tax benefit is offset by a valuation allowance of the same amount.


Due to the change in ownership provisions of the Tax Reform Act of 1986, net operating loss carry forwards for Federal income tax reporting purposes are subject to annual limitations. Should a change in ownership occur, net operating loss carry forwards may be limited as to use in future years.


The Company and its subsidiary file income tax returns in the United States, Canada and the state of Idaho.  With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal, state and local, or non-U.S. income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2006. The Company does not have any unrecognized tax benefits to report in the current period.


On January 1, 2007 the Company adopted the provisions of generally accepted accounting standards for Uncertainty in Income Taxes.  The Company has no uncertain tax positions to disclose.  


The Company’s policy is to recognize interest accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits in interest expense and penalties in operating expenses.


Canadian tax laws allow a company to recoup a significant amount of research and development costs. As a result, the Company will continue to conduct its research and development within Fredericton, New Brunswick and continue to apply for such tax incentives. In addition, income taxes are/will be prepared in accordance with Revenue Canada guidelines so as to maximize additional incentives, when available.

l. Newly Issued Accounting Pronouncements


During the year ended March 31, 2010, the Company adopted the following:


In April 2008, the FASB issued ASC 350-10, "Determination of the Useful Life of Intangible Assets." ASC 350-10 amends the factors that should be considered in developing renewal or extension assumptions used to determine the useful life of a recognized intangible asset under ASC 350-10, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets." ASC No. 350-10 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. The adoption of this ASC did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.


In April 2009, the FASB issued ASC 805-10, "Accounting for Assets Acquired and Liabilities assumed in a Business Combination That Arise from Contingencies—an amendment of FASB Statement No. 141 (Revised December 2007), Business Combinations". ASC 805-10 addresses application issues raised by preparers, auditors and members of the legal profession on initial recognition and measurement, subsequent measurement and accounting and disclosure of assets and liabilities arising from contingencies in a business combination. ASC 805-10 is effective for assets or liabilities arising from contingencies in business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2008. ASC 805-10 will have an impact on our accounting for any future acquisitions and its consolidated financial statements.


In May 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 165, "Subsequent Events", which is included in ASC Topic 855, Subsequent Events. ASC Topic 855 established principles and requirements for evaluating and reporting subsequent events and distinguishes which subsequent events should be recognized in the financial statements versus which subsequent events should be disclosed in the financial statements. ASC Topic 855 also requires disclosure of the date through which subsequent events are evaluated by management. ASC Topic 855 was effective for interim periods ending after June 15, 2009 and applies prospectively. Because ASC Topic 855 impacts the disclosure requirements, and not the accounting treatment for subsequent events, the adoption of ASC Topic 855 did not impact our consolidated results of operations or financial condition. See Note 10 for disclosures regarding our subsequent events.


On July 1, 2009, the Company adopted ASU No. 2009-05, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820) (ASU 2009-05). ASU 2009-05 provided amendments to ASC 820-10, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures – Overall, for the fair value measurement of liabilities. ASU 2009-05 provides clarification that in circumstances in which a quoted price in an active market for the identical liability is not available, a reporting entity is required to measure fair value using certain techniques. ASU 2009-05 also clarifies that when estimating the fair value of a liability, a reporting




PAGE 45



PCS EDVENTURES!.COM, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

March 31, 2010 and 2009


entity is not required to include a separate input or adjustment to other inputs relating to the existence of a restriction that prevents the transfer of a liability. ASU 2009-05 also clarifies that both a quoted price in an active market for the identical liability at the measurement date and the quoted price for the identical liability when traded as an asset in an active market when no adjustments to the quoted price of the asset are required are Level 1 fair value measurements. The adoption of ASU 2009-05 did not have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations or financial condition.


Effective July 1, 2009, we adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 105-10, Generally Accepted Accounting Principles—Overall ("ASC 105-10"). ASC 105-10 establishes the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (the "Codification") as the source of authoritative accounting principles recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities in the preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP. Rules and interpretive releases of the SEC under authority of federal securities laws are also sources of authoritative U.S. GAAP for SEC registrants. All guidance contained in the Codification carries an equal level of authority. The Codification superseded all existing non-SEC accounting and reporting standards. All other non-grandfathered, non-SEC accounting literature not included in the Codification is non-authoritative. The FASB will not issue new standards in the form of Statements, FASB Staff Positions or Emerging Issues Task Force Abstracts. Instead, it will issue Accounting Standards Updates ("ASUs"). The FASB will not consider ASUs as authoritative in their own right. ASUs will serve only to update the Codification, provide background information about the guidance and provide the bases for conclusions on the change(s) in the Codification. References made to FASB guidance throughout these consolidated financials have been updated for the Codification.


In August 2009, the FASB issued ASU No. 2009-05, Measuring Liabilities at Fair Value, which provides additional guidance on how companies should measure liabilities at fair value under ASC 820. The ASU clarifies that the quoted price for an identical liability should be used. However, if such information is not available, an entity may use the quoted price of an identical liability when traded as an asset, quoted prices for similar liabilities or similar liabilities traded as assets, or another valuation technique (such as the market or income approach). The ASU also indicates that the fair value of a liability is not adjusted to reflect the impact of contractual restrictions that prevent its transfer and indicates circumstances in which quoted prices for an identical liability or quoted price for an identical liability traded as an asset may be considered level 1 fair value measurements. This ASU is effective October 1, 2009. The adoption of this ASU did not impact our consolidated results of operations or financial condition.


k. Educational Software


The Company's inventory consists of internally developed education computer programs and exercises to be accessed on the Internet. In accordance with generally accepted accounting standards, the costs associated with research and initial feasibility of the programs and exercises are expensed as incurred. Once economic feasibility has been determined, the costs to develop the programs and exercises are capitalized until they are ready for sale and access and are reported at the lower of unamortized cost or net realizable value. Capitalized program and exercise inventory are amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the program or exercise, generally 24 to 48 months.


n. Intellectual Property


               The Company's intellectual property consists of capitalized costs associated with the development of the Internet software and delivery platform developed by the Company to enable access to the various educational programs and exercises developed by the Company. In accordance generally accepted accounting standards as discussed previously regarding inventory, the initial costs associated with researching the delivery platform and methods were expensed until economic feasibility and acceptance were determined. Thereafter, costs incurred to develop the Internet online delivery platform and related environments were capitalized until ready for use and able to deliver and access the Company's educational programs and exercises. Costs incurred thereafter to maintain the delivery and access platform are expensed as incurred. These capitalized costs are being amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the Company’s delivery and access platform, which has been determined to be 60 months.

March 31, 2010 and 2009


o. Property and Equipment


Property and equipment are recorded at cost and are being depreciated for financial accounting purposes on the straight-line method over their respective estimated useful lives ranging from three to seven years. Upon retirement or other disposition of these assets, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and the resulting gains or losses are reflected in the results of operations.


Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to operating expense. Renewals and betterments are capitalized.


 p. Finished Goods Inventory


Finished goods inventory is composed of items produced in-house, as well as items from outside suppliers. These items include, but are not limited to, K’NEX® manipulatives, fischertechnik® manipulatives, Eduwise manipulatives, LEGO® manipulatives, digital media equipment, furniture units, curriculum, blocks, PCS Academy of Science® science kits, poster packs, and other miscellaneous items used in our various labs.  Our inventory is carried at the lower of cost or market and valued using the average cost method for each item.


q. Stock Options and stock grants


Effective January 1, 2006, the Company accounts for stock issued for employee services and goods and services received from non-employees in accordance with generally accepted accounting standards. The Company is required to recognize expense of options or similar equity instruments including restricted share plans, performance-based awards, share appreciation rights, and employee share purchase plans. Application of this standard requires significant judgment regarding the assumptions used in the selected option-pricing model, including stock price volatility and employee exercise behavior.


Most of these inputs are either highly dependent on the current economic environment at the date of grant or forward-looking over the expected term of the award.


The Company accounts for shares issued to employees and others based upon the closing price of our common stock at the grant date.


The Company has granted options and warrants to purchase PCS Edventures!.com common stock.  These instruments have been valued using the Black-Scholes model and are fully detailed in Note 11.

b. Litigation


(i). PCS Edventures!.com Inc., v. Jackie DeLuna and Infusing Technology K12, (United States District Court for the district of Idaho, Case NO. CV-08-00379-BLW).  The Company initiated this trademark infringement suit against defendants. Defendants asserted counterclaims for trademark and copyright infringement, misappropriation of trade secrets, and breach of contract claims based on alleged underpayment of royalties under two license agreements with the Company and sought an accounting.  The parties settled their dispute pursuant to an agreement that does not involve payment of money by either party.  The Court dismissed the case with prejudice on November 9, 2009.  


 (ii)  Status of SEC Proceedings:  As previously reported, the staff of the SEC’s Salt Lake City, Utah, regional office (“Staff”) has been conducting a non-public investigation to determine whether the Company and/or members of its management or staff violated certain provisions of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 (“Exchange Act”).  Information about the investigation was previously disclosed in Part I Item 3 of PCS’ 10-K Annual Report for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2009, in Part II Item 1 of its 10-Q Quarterly Reports for the quarters ended June 30, 2009 and September 30, 2009, and in footnotes to PCS’ consolidated financial statements contained in those reports.  PCS has cooperated fully in providing information and documentation to the SEC Staff during the SEC’s investigation.


The SEC investigation relates to disclosures made by the Company in its 8-K Current Report dated March 27, 2007 concerning its March 28, 2007 press release that announced a License Agreement with Global Techniques dba PCS Middle East (“PCS ME”).  The investigation has focused on SEC rules promulgated under the Exchange Act respecting

book and record-keeping procedures, internal controls, and certain matters related to the Company’s relationships with its prior auditors, all apparently related to the PCS ME disclosures and agreements and the accounting treatment of these matters, and to sales of shares of the Company’s common stock by members of management following the issuance of the press release.  


The amount due under the License Agreement was not paid when due, as disclosed in the Company’s 8-K/A Current Report dated March 27, 2007 and filed with the SEC on May 17, 2007.  Members of management sold an aggregate of 161,500 shares of the Company’s common stock between April 2, 2007 and May 9, 2007, for total proceeds of $330,460. The License Agreement revenue was never booked in the Company’s public financial statements, as the payment was not received by the time the audit of the Company’s March 31, 2007 fiscal year end financial statements was completed.  


The Company had a prior five year relationship with PCS ME at the time of the announcement of the License Agreement, including implementation of several pilot programs in Saudi Arabia schools in 2005 and 2006 and receipt of a

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

March 31, 2010 and 2009


December 27, 2006 letter from the Saudi Ministry of Education to the Ministry of Education Contacting Department supporting PCS proposals advanced by PCS ME.  The Company has continued the licensing of its educational products in the Middle East with PCS ME, having sold additional PCS products to PCS ME for approximately $160,000 since 2007. The Company extended a $250,000 loan jointly to PCS ME and its principal owner, Mohamed Yasser Refai, on or about October 1, 2007, as disclosed in the Company’s 8-K Current Report of that date. The loan was due on the earlier of the payment of the License Agreement or January 31, 2008, and was secured by an Assignment of Equity amounting to a 25% interest in PCS ME. However, that interest was not perfected.  Because the $250,000 loan to PCS ME was not paid when due, it was written off as of December 31, 2007, The Company had and currently has no interest in PCS ME.  The Company and PCS ME continue to work on completing the entire License Agreement disclosed on March 27, 2007 and the over-all project in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia that is tied to that agreement.  


Depositions of certain directors and executive officers were taken by the SEC staff in late June 2009, and focused on what the SEC apparently believes to be discrepancies in the factors upon which the Company relied in forming its reasonable basis for announcing the License Agreement (including that payment under the License PCS Agreement was contingent upon PCS ME obtaining payment from the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia that would become the end-user of the Company’s products, which the Company believed was imminent),  along with auditor and internal control concerns about whether the License Agreement was collectible or bookable, and the sales of shares of the Company’s common stock by certain members of management during this period.


As reported in the Company’s Form 8-K Current Report filed October 19, 2009 and the press release filed as an exhibit to that report.  The Company received a “Wells Notice” on October 16, 2009 informing PCS of the Staff’s intention to recommend to the Commission that the SEC bring a civil injunctive action against PCS alleging that it violated Sections 10(b), 13(a), 13(b)(2)(A) and 13(b)(2)(B) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rules 10b-5, 12b-20, 13a-1 and 13a-11 thereunder in connection with the disclosures made by the Company in its 8-K Current Report dated March 27, 2007 and in the related Press Release that announced the PCS ME License Agreement, subsequent sales of PCS stock by certain PCS officers and directors, book and record-keeping procedures and internal controls relating to revenue recognition from the License Agreement, and later disclosures concerning the License Agreement.   Wells Notices were also issued to the Chairman of the Board/Chief Executive Officer; the Executive Vice President/Chief Technology Officer; a Director; and a former officer.  


In connection with the contemplated recommendation, the Staff may seek remedies including, among other things, a permanent injunction against future violations of federal securities laws, civil monetary penalties and, in the case of the individual Wells Notice recipients, disgorgement of PCS stock sale proceeds and a bar against continued service as officers or directors of PCS.  

 

Under a process established by the SEC, PCS and each of the other recipients of the Wells Notices had the opportunity to submit any reasons of law, policy or fact why they believe that a civil injunctive action should not be brought (a “Wells Submission”) before the Staff makes its recommendation to the Commission regarding what action, if any, should be brought. PCS and the other Wells Notice recipients made their respective Wells Submissions in December 2009. As of the date of this Annual Report, the Company has not received any communication from the Staff in response to the Wells Submissions.   There can be no assurance that the SEC will not decide to bring an action against PCS and/or the officers and directors who have also received Wells Notices.  


Under its bylaws, PCS is obligated, subject to certain exceptions and conditions, to indemnify and advance expenses to current and former officers and directors in connection with the SEC investigation and any subsequent SEC enforcement actions.  The costs incurred by PCS in addressing the SEC investigation and possible enforcement proceedings, including the anticipated costs of indemnification of PCS’ officers and directors, have had, and if the SEC staff recommends commencement of an SEC enforcement action will likely continue to have, a material adverse effect on PCS’ business, financial position, results of operations and cash flows (including its liquidity and its plan of operation as outlined in management’s discussion and analysis in PCS’ most recent 10-K and 10-Q Reports, including this Annual Report).  The investigation and possible enforcement proceedings could result in adverse publicity and divert the efforts and attention of PCS’ executive management team from ordinary business operations.

PCS’ directors and officers insurance carrier has denied coverage of any claims relating to the SEC investigation, including defense costs, based on its contention that PCS did not give the insurer timely notice of the SEC’s formal non-public order commencing the investigation or the related issuance of subpoenas by the SEC.  PCS disagrees with the carrier’s coverage position and is considering litigation to require the insurer to satisfy its contractual obligations.  There can be no assurance that the insurer will reimburse the legal expenses associated with the SEC investigation or any subsequent enforcement action that may be commenced in the future. (See Note 18-Subsequent Events)


NOTE 7 - EDUCATIONAL SOFTWARE



Educational software was purchased by the Company as a part of the acquisition of 511092 N.B. LTD. and consists of internally developed education computer programs and exercises to be accessed on the Internet. In accordance with financial accounting standard pertaining to internally developed software, the costs associated with research and initial feasibility of the programs and exercises are expensed as incurred. Once economic feasibility has been determined, the costs to develop the programs and exercises are capitalized until they are ready for sale and access and are reported at the lower of unamortized cost or net realizable value. Capitalized program and exercise inventory are amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimate useful life of the program or exercise, generally 24 to 48 months. This educational software had a carrying value of $161,610 at March 31, 2009.  During 2010 there were $81,458 of additional inventory and related costs incurred, with a total of $28,312 of related depreciation recognized. This resulted in a current book value of $214,756.


NOTE 8 - INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY



Intellectual property consists of capitalized costs associated with the development of the Internet software and delivery platform developed by PCS LabMentors to enable access to the various educational programs and exercises developed by the Company, as well as the PCS STEPS program. In accordance with FAS 86 as discussed previously regarding Educational Software, the initial costs associated with researching the delivery platform and methods were expensed until economic feasibility and acceptance were determined. Thereafter, costs incurred to develop the Internet online delivery platform and related environments were capitalized until ready for use and able to deliver and access the Company's educational programs and exercises. Costs incurred thereafter to maintain the delivery and access platform are expensed as incurred. These capitalized costs are being amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the Company’s delivery and access platform, which has been determined to be 60 months. This intellectual property had a carrying value of $37,500 at March 31, 2009. Amortization recognized for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010 was $37,500, with a resulting carrying value of $0 at March 31, 2010.  


NOTE 9 - GOODWILL



The entire goodwill balance of $202,688 at March 31, 2010 and 2009, which is not deductible for tax purposes due to the purchase being completed through the exchange of stock, is related to the Company's acquisition of PCS LabMentors in November 2005. Included within this amount of goodwill are capital costs associated with the acquisition. The capitalized costs are for accounting, consulting, and legal fees associated with the transaction. With the acquisition of PCS LabMentors, the Company gained LabMentors' significant interest in the technical college market and increased the products available to educational outlets. The Company also obtained the information technology and programming expertise of LabMentors' workforce, gained additional cost optimization, and gained greater market flexibility in optimizing market information and access to collegiate level sales

NOTE 9 – GOODWILL (continued)



Generally accepted accounting standards require that a two-step impairment test be performed annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. The first step of the test for impairment compares the book value of the Company to its estimated fair value.


We undertook an impairment review at the end of the current fiscal year end. After reviewing current operating losses and future growth potential of the subsidiary, the Company determined that an impairment was not necessary.

NOTE 11 - DILUTIVE INSTRUMENTS



Stock Options and Warrants


The Company is required to recognize expense of options or similar equity instruments issued to employees using the fair-value-based method of accounting for stock-based payments in compliance with the financial accounting standard pertaining to share-based payments. This standard covers a wide range of share-based compensation arrangements including share options, restricted share plans, performance-based awards, share appreciation rights, and employee share purchase plans. Application of this pronouncement requires significant judgment regarding the assumptions used in the selected option pricing model, including stock price volatility and employee exercise behavior. Most of these inputs are either highly dependent on the current economic environment at the date of grant or forward-looking over the expected term of the award.

NOTE 13 – ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE



The Company’s concentration of credit risk consists primarily of trade receivables. In the normal course of business, the Company provides credit terms to its customers, which generally range from net 30 to 45 days. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and maintains allowances for possible losses, which, when realized, have been within the range of management's expectations. The allowance is based on the prior three-year historical uncollectable accounts as a percentage of sales. As of March 31, 2010, the historical gross sales were $8,480,564 with a bad debt allowance equivalent to 0.541%, for a bad debt allowance of $4,271. The bad debt allowance as of March 31, 2009 was $1,573. The bad debt expense for the year ending March 31, 2010 and 2009 was $4,649 and $6,229, respectively.


NOTE 14 – OTHER ASSET


During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2009, the Company contracted and produced a hard plastic covering for the third generation electronic controller, The Brain. The controller is incorporated into the AORC and AOR products.  The cost of the Mold was $28,426. The cost is amortized on a per unit basis with a total estimated 10,000 units. As of March 31, 2010, the Company amortized 1,332 units.


NOTE 15 - GOING CONCERN

 

 

                The Company’s consolidated financial statements are prepared using Generally Accepted Accounting Principals applicable to a going concern that contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The established source of revenues is not sufficient to cover its operating cost. Although the Company has positive working capital, it has accumulated significant losses and a deficit in stockholders’ equity. The combination of these items raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans with respect to alleviating this adverse position, that caused the Company to express doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, are as follows:

 

                 During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010, The Company continued to strengthen its strategic alliances with K’NEX, Science Demo, fischertechnik, MR Block, Integrating Technology, Minds I, Follette, Whole School, and Eduwise for further product development and enhancement. The Company had strong sales in Academy of Robotics Lab and continues to see strong sales in the Digital Media Lab and Edison. The Company studied and reviewed its marketing and sales team strategies, which resulted in a re-organization. The Company ceased direct sales based on geographical regions and has moved into four (4) Strategic Business Units (SBUs). This change will allow for a more focused marketing strategy directed at our target markets and allow for greater emphasis on our product’s ability to fill the needs of our customers, allowing for greater market penetration. In addition it will allow our sales team to build stronger relationships with key customers strengthening our product branding and enhance the positive reputation of our products and name. To help facilitate the implementation PCS contracted with Mr. Glenn McCandless, of Focus Marketing. Mr. McCandless has over 25 years of proven industry experience, including 10 years of education marketing, sales, and channel management at Apple and 15 years as President of Focus Marketing, a sales, marketing, and business development consulting firm specializing in the educational market. Mr. McCandless will act as Interim Vice President of Marketing, through FY2011.

                NOTE 15 - GOING CONCERN (continued)


In addition, on February 23, 2010 Robert O. Grover was promoted to the positions of President, Chief Operating Officer, and Chief Technology Officer of PCS Edventures!.com.  Mr. Anthony A. Maher retains the positions of Chief Executive Officer and Director. The consolidation of operations under Mr. Grover allows Mr. Maher to focus his attention as CEO on long-term strategic initiatives, the evaluation of acquisition opportunities, financial planning and the expansion of relationships within the investment community, while allowing Mr. Grover to help facilitate and effectively address the evolving nature of the education markets, both domestic and international.


The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to successfully accomplish the plan described in the preceding paragraph and eventually attain profitable operations. The accompanying

consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.


NOTE 16 – CHANGE IN ACCOUNTING POLICY



Effective April 1, 2009, the Company changed its revenue recognition policy to recognize product revenue when the weighted average cost of goods reached 100% shipped.  This change created an immaterial increased loss of ($43,498) which was treated retrospectively.  We believe this change to be more conservative and will not create a material effect on our financial statements.  In addition, it will allow for revenue to be uniformly applied Company wide and allow for greater transparency to users of the financial statements, in that it is less complicated and a more commonly used manner of recognition.

Item 9. Changes In and Disagreements With Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure

 

None, not applicable


Item 9(A)T. Controls and Procedures.



Evaluation of Disclosure Controls


We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our chief executive officer of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)).  Based upon that evaluation, our chief executive officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered in this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the required time periods and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure


Our management, including our chief executive officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal controls will prevent all error or fraud.  A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met.  Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs.  Due to the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected. Management believes that the financial statements included in this report fairly present in all material respects our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.


Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting.


Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act, as amended.  Our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2010. In making this assessment, our management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework.  

 



PAGE 60



Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting (continued)


Management has concluded that the Company maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2010, based on the criteria established in “Internal Control-Integrated Framework” issued by the COSO.


Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting.   


  No change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting occurred during the year ended March 31, 2010, that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.


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 SEC.


Item 9(B). Other Information.



(i) During the year ended March 31, 2010 the Company’s Controller, Management, Audit Committee, Board of Directors, and legal counsel reviewed, and updated the following governing policies:


1.

Audit Committee Charter,

2.

Disclosure Policy,

3.

Code of Ethics for Senior Financial Officers,

4.

Insider Trading Policy, and

5.

Employee Handbook.


The review was in response to the October 19, 2009 “Wells Notice” and management’s desire and responsibility to establish and maintain adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act, as amended, and management’s responsibility to evaluate the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)).


(ii) Adoption of PCS Edventures!.com, In., 2009 Equity Incentive Plan On August 27, 2009, the Board of Directors adopted and the shareholder’s approved the PCS Edventures!.com, Inc. 2009 Equity Incentive Plan (“ 2009 Plan”). The 2009 Plan was designed to replace the existing 2004 Nonqualified Stock Option Plan (“2004 Plan”). The 2009 Plan provides for the grant of various types of equity instruments, including grants of restricted and unrestricted PCS common stock as well as options and other types of awards. The 2009 Plan was implemented to align the interests of the Company’s employees with those if the shareholders and to motivate, attract, and retain its employees and provide an incentive for outstanding performance.


(iii) Material Event in Management  On November 30, 2009 the Company announced that Anthony A. Maher, its CEO, Acting CFO, and a director suffered a heart attack.  Following insertion of a stent to clear a blockage, Mr. Maher returned home.  Mr. Maher has made a full recovery and has resumed his full time duties as the Company’s CEO, Acting CFO, and a director.


On February 23, 2010 Robert O. Grover was promoted to the positions of President, Chief Operating Officer, and Chief Technology Officer of PCS Edventures!.com.  Mr. Anthony A. Maher retains the positions of Chief Executive Officer and Acting Financial Officer of PCS Edventures!.com, Inc.  The change was made to help facilitate and effectively address the evolving nature of the education markets, both domestic and international. The consolidation of operations under Mr. Grover allows Mr. Maher to focus his attention as CEO on long-term strategic initiatives, the evaluation of acquisition opportunities, financial planning and the expansion of relationships within the investment community.

Item 9(B). Other Information (continued)


 (iv) Stock Issued as Compensation   As a cost-cutting measure and to avoid layoffs of employees, the Company reduced the salaries of the Company’s officers and its other employees (collectively, “Employees”) by 20% and 10%, respectively, beginning in May 2009 and continuing to date.


To motivate such officers and Employees to continue to work for the Company and to continue to work efficiently and productively, the Company offered to issue to each such Employee, for each payroll period, PCS common stock with a current fair market value corresponding to the amount of the Employee’s salary reduction, and to allow each such Employee to elect to receive either “free trading” PCS common stock at then current market value or restricted PCS common stock at a 20% discount to then current market value.  The Company’s management erroneously believed that the Company could issue “free trading” stock pursuant to the Company’s Form S-8 registration statement as filed with the SEC on May 21, 2004 and amended by Form S-8A filed January 4, 2008 (the “2004 Form S-8 Registration Statement”).  


In early October, management became aware that this belief was incorrect.  Management immediately imposed a blackout on Employee sales of the unlegended shares and conducted an investigation to determine whether any of those shares had been sold by Employees.  The investigation revealed that two Employees sold a total of 4380 shares of PCS common stock issued by the Company under the mistaken belief that such shares were “free trading” shares.


In conjunction with its investigation, management reported to the Board of Directors that the Company had issued unlegended certificates representing a total of 222,815 shares of Company common stock to employees and independent contractors in other instances during the period from August 2006 through April 2009 in the belief that such shares could be issued as “free trading” shares under the 2004 Form S-8 Registration Statement. Of those shares, 33,673 shares (issued in 2007) were held by the recipients for less than six months, 75,000 shares (issued in 2009) were held by a non-affiliate for more than six months, and the remaining shares were held more than one year or continue to be held by the recipients as of September 30, 2009. The 33,673 shares issued in 2007 were transferred more than one year prior to the date of this Quarterly Report; and the Company is advised by counsel that rescission claims by the transferees based on the sale of unregistered securities are barred by applicable federal and state statutes of limitation.  Civil penalties could be assessed by the SEC in connection with such resales if they did not comply with Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933 or were not otherwise exempt pursuant to Section 4(1) of the Securities Act of 1933.  


At the annual meeting of the Company’s shareholders on August 27, 2009, the shareholders approved the PCS Edventures!.com, Inc. 2009 Equity Incentive Plan (“2009 Plan”), which authorizes the board of directors to grant stock, awards purely as a “bonus” and not subject to any restrictions or conditions.  The Company filed a Form S-8 Registration Statement on November 19, 2009 registering the shares of PCS common stock issued or issuable pursuant to the 2009 Equity Incentive Plan.  


The unsold shares of PCS common stock issued to Employees as “free trading” shares to offset salary reductions are being cancelled and the Company is replacing those shares with shares of PCS common stock issued under the 2009 Plan and registered under the new S-8 Registration Statement in those amounts. The Company is also issuing shares of PCS common stock issued under the 2009 Plan and registered under the new S-8 Registration Statement to those Employees who elected to receive free trading shares to offset their salary reduction.   


The Board of Directors has reaffirmed and directed that all commitments and recommendations to issue Company’s common stock must be pre-approved by the Board.  The Board also directed the Company (i) to use reasonable best efforts to identify the purchasers of the 4380 shares of PCS stock that were designated “free trading” shares and that were previously sold by Employees during 2009 and (ii) if such purchasers can be identified without undue cost or diversion of Company’s employees from their regular duties, to offer to repurchase those shares from each such purchaser for the amount paid by such purchaser if the purchaser still owns the stock or, if the purchaser no longer owns the stock, the difference between the amount paid by the purchaser and the amount received upon resale.


The Board of Directors has authorized the continuation of management’s plan to avoid layoffs of the Employees by offering to offset salary reductions by issuing Company stock pursuant to the 2009 Plan in order to retain such Employees and reward them for continued efforts on behalf of the Company.

Audit Committee Financial Expert.



We chartered an audit committee in 2001 for the purpose of engaging accounting firm(s), which is currently M&K CPAs, PLLC, for the annual audit. The audit committee currently consists of Board members Michael K. McMurray and Dehryl A. Dennis. . Mr. McMurray is considered an audit committee financial expert based on his previous work experience and the definition contained in Reg. 228.401 Instructions to paragraph (e)(1) of Item 401 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. The audit committee continued to implement the formal policy regarding the scope, responsibilities

As of March 31, 2010 the Company had accrued  $17,500 of director fees. The current CEO is excluded from receiving additional compensation as a Board member beginning the second fiscal quarter of 2006 by unanimous consent of the Board and his own request.


The Board of Directors granted additional compensation to Michael K. McMurray for his additional work on behalf of the Company during the absence of Mr. Anthony A. Maher, CEO and Acting Chief Financial Officer.

compensation for board or board committee service;


(ii)

compensation paid to a Family Member who is an employee (other than an Executive Officer) of the Company; or


(iii)

benefits under a tax-qualified retirement plan, or non-discretionary compensation.



PAGE 73




Provided, however, that in addition to the requirements contained in this paragraph (B), audit committee members are also subject to additional, more stringent requirements under Rule 5605(c)(2).


(C) a director who is a Family Member of an individual who is, or at any time during the past three years was, employed by the company as an Executive Officer;


(D) a director who is, or has a Family Member who is, a partner in, or a controlling Shareholder or an Executive Officer of, any organization to which the Company made, or from which the Company received, payments for property or services in the current or any of the past three fiscal years that exceed 5% of the recipient’s consolidated gross revenues for that year, or $200,000, whichever is more, other than the following:

payments arising solely from investments in the Company’s securities; or


(ii)

payments under non-discretionary charitable contribution matching programs.


(E) a director of the Company who is, or has a Family Member who is, employed as an Executive Officer of another entity where at any time during the past three years any of the Executive Officers of the Company serve on the compensation committee of such other entity; or


(F) a director who is, or has a Family Member who is, a current partner of the Company’s outside auditor, or was a partner or employee of the Company’s outside auditor who worked on the Company’s audit at any time during any of the past three years.


(G) in the case of an investment company, in lieu of paragraphs (A)-(F), a director who is an “interested person” of the Company as defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, other than in his or her capacity as a member of the board of directors or any board committee.
