EXPLANATORY NOTE
 
US Dataworks, Inc. (the “Company”) is filing this Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-Q/A (this “Amended Report”) to amend its Quarterly Report on Form10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2010 filed with the Commission on November 15, 2010 (the “Original Report”).  The purpose of this Amended Report is to provide the Company's amended and restated financial statements for the quarter ended September 30, 2010 and the comparative period ended September 30, 2009 (the “Restated September 2010 Financial Statements”).
 
On January 21, 2011, the Company's Audit Committee concluded that the Company's previously filed financial statements for the Company's fiscal year ended March 31, 2010 and for the Company's fiscal quarters ended June 30, 2010 and September 30, 2010 could no longer be relied upon because of an error in such financial statements related to the Company's accounting for a software license sold during the quarter ended March 31, 2010 (the "License").
 
The Company recognized all of the license fee revenue associated with the License in March 2010 when the license agreement was executed and the software was provided to the customer. In November 2010, the Company entered into a separate service agreement with the customer. However, the original accounting did not consider the impact of essential services which are common for such software to meet the customer's intended use. Therefore, the Company has determined that the software license fee revenue should have been recognized over the period the professional services are rendered.
 
The Restated September 2010 Financial Statements and other financial information included in this Amended Report have been restated accordingly.  For more information concerning the restatement, see Note 8 to Financial Statements included in this Amended Report.
 
Except for the Restated September 2010 Financial Statements, this Amended Report does not amend the Original Report in any way and does not modify or update any disclosures contained in the Original Report, including disclosures contained in the Restated September 2010 Financial Statements  that were not affected by the error addressed by the restatement.  This Amended Report speaks only as of November 15, 2010 and does not reflect events occurring after such date.  In addition, this Amended Report does not include any items that were not affected by the restatement.  Accordingly, this Amended Report should be read in conjunction with the Original Report.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
1.
Organization and Business
 
General
 
US Dataworks, Inc., a Nevada corporation, (the “Company”), develops, markets, and supports payment processing software for multiple market segments. Its customer base includes some of the largest financial institutions as well as credit card companies, government institutions, banker’s banks and high-volume merchants in the United States. The Company was formerly known as Sonicport, Inc.
 
2.
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
 
Interim Financial Statements
 
The accompanying interim unaudited condensed financial statements included herein have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).  The financial statements reflect all adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary to fairly present such information.  All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature.  Although the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading, certain information and footnote disclosures, including a description of significant accounting policies normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”), have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations.
 
These financial statements should be read in connection with the audited financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K/A (Amendment No. 2) for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010 filed with the Commission on February 22, 2011.  As discussed in Note 8, the financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2010 and the quarters ended June 30, 2010 and September 30, 2010 have been restated.  The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results for any subsequent quarter or the fiscal year ending March 31, 2011.
 
Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenues associated with its software products in accordance with the provisions of the Financial Accounting Standard Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic No. 985 – 605, “Software Revenue Recognition”.
 
The Company licenses its software on a transactional or a subscription fee basis. In these arrangements, the customer is charged a fee based upon the number of items processed by the software and the Company recognizes revenue as these transactions occur. The transaction fee also includes the provision of standard maintenance and support services as well as product upgrades should such upgrades become available.  If professional services that are essential to the functionality of the software are provided in connection with the installation of the software licensed, revenue is recognized when these services have been provided on a percentage of completion basis.
 
 In certain instances, we license our software products under non-exclusive, non-transferable license agreements that involve services essential to the functionality of the software.  License revenue is recognized when services have been provided on the percentage of completion basis.
 
For license agreements that include a separately identifiable fee for contracted maintenance services, such maintenance revenues are recognized on a straight-line basis over the life of the maintenance agreement noted in the agreement, but following any installation period of the software.
 
In certain instances, the Company enters into arrangements that include multiple elements, where fees are allocated to the various elements based on vendor specific objective evidence of fair value.

Goodwill

The goodwill recorded on the Company’s books is from the acquisition of US Dataworks, Inc. in fiscal year 2001 which remains the Company’s single reporting unit. FASB ASC Topic No. 350, “Intangibles – Goodwill and Other Intangibles”), requires goodwill for each reporting unit of an entity be tested for impairment by comparing the fair value of each reporting unit with its carrying value. Fair value is determined using a combination of the discounted cash flow, market multiple and market capitalization valuation approaches. Significant estimates used in the methodologies include estimates of future cash flows, future short-term and long-term growth rates, weighted average cost of capital and estimates of market multiples for each reportable unit. On an ongoing basis, absent any impairment indicators, the Company performs impairment tests annually during the fourth quarter.

FASB ASC Topic No. 350 requires goodwill to be tested annually and between annual tests if events occur or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of the reportable unit below its carrying amount. The Company did not record an impairment of goodwill for either the quarter ended September 30, 2010 or the year ended March 31, 2010.

Goodwill is classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy.
 
Convertible Debt Financing – Derivative Liabilities

The Company reviews the terms of its convertible debt and equity instruments issued to determine whether there are embedded derivative instruments, including embedded conversion options, that are required to be bifurcated and accounted for separately as a derivative financial instrument.  In circumstances where the convertible instrument contains more than one embedded derivative instrument, including the conversion option, that is required to be bifurcated, the bifurcated derivative instruments are accounted for as a single, compound derivative instrument.  Also, in connection with the sale of convertible debt and equity instruments, the Company may issue freestanding options or warrants that may, depending on their terms, be accounted for as derivative instrument liabilities, rather than as equity. As of September 30, 2010 and March 31, 2010, the Company did not have any derivative instrument liabilities.

Stock Options
 
The Company follows the guidance cited in ASC Topic No. 718, “Compensation – Stock Compensation”, to account for its stock options. ASC Topic No. 718 requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all share-based payment awards made to employees and directors, including employee stock options, based on estimated fair values. Stock-based compensation expense recognized under ASC Topic No. 718, which consists of stock-based compensation expense related to employee and director stock options and restricted stock issuances, for the six months ended September 30, 2010 was $72,638 and $101,403 for the six months ended September 30, 2009, which consists of stock-based compensation expense related to employee and director stock options and restricted stock issuances.

ASC Topic No. 718 requires companies to estimate the fair value of share-based payment awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model. The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as expense over the requisite service periods in the Company’s statement of operations. Stock-based compensation expense recognized during the period is based on the value of the portion of share-based payment awards that is ultimately expected to vest during the period. Compensation expense recognized for all employee stock options awards granted is recognized over their respective vesting periods unless the vesting period is graded. As stock-based compensation expense recognized in the Statement of Operations for the six months ended September 30, 2010 and September 30, 2009 is based on awards ultimately expected to vest, it has been reduced for estimated forfeitures as explained below.

Upon adoption of ASC Topic No. 718, the Company continued to use the Black-Scholes option valuation model, which requires management to make certain assumptions for estimating the fair value of employee stock options granted at the date of the grant. In determining the compensation cost of the options granted, as specified by ASC Topic No. 718, the fair value of each option grant has been estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes pricing model. The weighted average assumptions used in the calculations for the options granted in the six months ended September 30, 2009 included a risk-free interest rate of .9%, expected life of options granted  is ten years, expected volatility is 208%, expected dividend yield of zero, and expected forfeiture rate of 30%. There were 25,000 options granted during the six months ended September 30, 2010.  There were 800,000 options granted during the six months ended September 30, 2009. The weighted average assumptions used in the calculations for the options granted in the six months ended September 30, 2010 included a risk-free interest rate of 2.35%, expected life of options granted  is ten years, expected volatility is 117%, expected dividend yield of zero, and expected forfeiture rate of 30%.

As of September 30, 2010, there was approximately $19,212 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested share-based compensation arrangements, which is expected to be recognized over a period of two years.

Income and Loss per Share

The Company calculates income and loss per share in accordance with FASB ASC Topic No. 260 – 10, “Earnings Per Share”. Basic loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted loss per share is computed similar to basic loss per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common stock equivalents had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive.

The following potential common stock equivalents have been excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share for the periods presented because the effect would have been anti-dilutive (options and warrants typically convert on a one-for-one basis, see conversion details of the preferred stock stated below for the common stock shares issuable upon conversion). The weighted-average common stock equivalents as of September 30, 2010 and 2009 are as follows:

   
September 30,
 
   
2010
   
2009
 
             
Options outstanding under the Company’s stock option plans
   
6,571,832
     
7,745,720
 
Options outstanding outside the Company’s stock option plans
   
580,000
     
1,160,000

Concentrations of Credit Risk
 
The Company sells its products throughout the United States and extends credit to its customers. It also performs ongoing credit evaluations of such customers. The Company does not obtain collateral to secure its accounts receivable. The Company evaluates its accounts receivable on a regular basis for collectability and provides for an allowance for potential credit losses as deemed necessary.
 
Three of our customers accounted for 61%, 10% and 9% of our net revenues for the six months ended September 30, 2010. Two of our customers accounted for 59% and 12% of our net revenues for the six months ended September 30, 2009.
 
At September 30, 2010, amounts due from four of our customers accounted for 38%, 19%, 13% and 10% of accounts receivable. At September 30, 2009, amounts due from five of our customers accounted for 36%, 12%, 12%, 12% and 10% of accounts receivable.
 
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
 
There have been no additional accounting pronouncements or changes in accounting pronouncements during the six months ended September 30, 2010, as compared to the recent accounting pronouncements described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010, that are material, or potentially material, to the Company’s financial statements.
 
Income Taxes
 
Deferred income taxes are provided on a liability method whereby deferred tax assets and liabilities are established for the difference between the financial reporting and income tax basis of assets and liabilities as well as operating loss and tax credit carryforwards.  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. At September 30, 2010 and March 31, 2010, a valuation allowance has been established to fully offset deferred tax assets.
 
The Company has computed the tax provision for the six months ended September 30, 2010 in accordance with the provisions of ASC 740-Income Taxes and ASC 270-Interim Reporting.  The Company has estimated that its effective tax rate for US purposes will be 0% for 2010, and consequently, recorded zero income tax benefit for the six months ended September 30, 2010.
 
At September 30, 2010, the Company had approximately $28 million of net operating loss carryforwards for U.S. purposes.  These loss carryforwards will expire from 2020 through 2030 if not utilized.
 
The Company records expense and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense, and there is no liability accrued for the payment of interest and penalties as of September 30, 2010 and March 31, 2010, respectively. The Company recognized no benefits for uncertain positions during the six months ended September 30, 2010, and there are no unrecognized tax positions that may be recognized in the next twelve months as a result of a lapse of statute of limitations and settlement of ongoing audits.

Revolving Bank Credit Line and Term Loan

On February 9, 2010, the Company entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) with Silicon Valley Bank (“SVB”) and related agreements and documents providing for a senior credit facility comprised of a revolving line of credit and a term loan (the “Credit Facility”). Pursuant to the Loan Agreement, the Company has granted SVB a security interest in all of its assets, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, including but not limited to, all accounts receivable, copyrights, trademarks, licenses, equipment and all proceeds from such collateral. The initial maximum availability under the revolving line of credit (the “Revolver”) was $250,000 and increased to $1,000,000 on July 1, 2010. The maturity date of the Revolver was February 8, 2011. The Revolver accrued interest at an annual rate equal to the higher of (i) 1.25% above SVB’s prime rate or (ii) 5.25% and is payable monthly. No principal payments are due on the Revolver until its maturity date. Subject to the commitment limits described above, the Company could borrow up to eighty percent (80%) of its eligible accounts receivable subject to a number of exceptions. The Company will use the proceeds from the Revolver for general corporate purposes. As of September 30, 2010, the Company had zero borrowings on the revolving line of credit. The amount originally borrowed under the term loan (the “Term Loan”) was $1,000,000 and the amount outstanding was $805,556 at September 30, 2010 and $972,222 at March 31, 2010. The maturity date of the Term Loan was February 9, 2013. The Term Loan accrued interest at the fixed annual rate of 6.50% and is payable monthly. Principal payments on the Term Loan were scheduled to be made in thirty six equal monthly installments. If an event of default occurs and is continuing, the interest rates on the Revolver and the Term Loan will increase by 5.00% on an annualized basis.

The Credit Facility required that the Company comply with financial covenants for an adjusted quick ratio and a fixed charge coverage ratio, as defined. As of September 30, 2010, the Company was not in compliance with its financial covenants and certain other covenants under the Loan Agreement.  The Company entered into a series of forbearance agreements with SVB addressing such non-compliance.  Further, SVB has recently waived the events of default arising out of such non-compliance in connection with entering into an amended and restated loan agreement with the Company (See “Note 8-Subsequent Events”).

Notes Payable – Related Parties

Through a series of negotiated agreements, the Company has executed and delivered, and is currently indebted under, (i) a promissory note (the “Nicholson Refinance Note”) payable to John L. Nicholson, an outside director of the Company, and (ii) a promissory note (the “Ramey Refinance Note”) payable to Charles E. Ramey, the Chairman and CEO of the Company.  The original proceeds from the Nicholson Refinance Note and the Ramey Refinance Note (collectively, the “Refinance Notes”) were used to refinance certain debt of the Company and for other corporate purposes.

The terms of the Nicholson Refinance Note are as follows:

 
·
Current principal balance is $2,295,000.
 
·
The maturity date is January 1, 2014.
 
·
Annual interest rate is twelve percent (12%) but will reduce down to ten percent (10%) if the principal balance is reduced below $1,905,000.
 
·
Interest is payable monthly.
 
·
No principal payments required until the maturity date.

The terms of the Ramey Refinance Note are as follows:

 
·
Current principal balance is $792,245.
 
·
The maturity date is January 1, 2014.
 
·
Annual interest rate is ten percent (10%).
 
·
Interest is payable monthly.
 
·
No principal payments required until the maturity date.

The Refinance Notes are expressly subject to the terms and provisions of the Amended and Restated Subordination Agreement among SVB, Messrs. Nicholson and Ramey, and the Company that was entered into as of October 27, 2010 in connection with closing the New Credit Facility (the “Subordination Agreement”).  The Subordination Agreement provides, among other things, that no payments on the Refinance Notes other than regular scheduled non-default interest payments are permitted without the consent of SVB unless and until the New Credit Facility is paid in full and terminated.

The Refinance Notes were originally issued pursuant to a Note Purchase Agreement between the Company and Messrs. Nicholson and Ramey dated August 13, 2008 that remain in effect.  The Refinance Notes are secured by a Security Agreement, dated August 13, 2008, by and between the Company and Messrs. Nicholson and Ramey, pursuant to which the Company granted Messrs. Nicholson and Ramey a security interest in all its personal property, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, including but not limited to, all accounts receivable, copyrights, trademarks, licenses, equipment and all proceeds as from such collateral.  Pursuant to the Subordination Agreement, this security interest will remain junior to SVB’s security interest under the New Credit Facility as long as such facility remains in place.

       Note Payable Equipment

 In August 2007, the Company entered into a note payable with an equipment vendor to purchase new telephone equipment for $105,835. The note bears a 10.68% per annum interest rate, is secured by the equipment and was due in 36 equal monthly installments of $3,418. As of March 31, 2010, the outstanding balance on this note payable was $17,639, and has been paid in full in FY2011.

6.
Fair Value Measurements
 
On April 1, 2008, the Company adopted SFAS No. 157 “Fair Value Measurements” (“SFAS 157”), which is incorporated in ASC Topic No. 820 - 10, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures”. ASC Topic No. 820 - 10, among other things, defines fair value, establishes a consistent framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure for each major asset and liability category measured at fair value on either a recurring or nonrecurring basis. ASC Topic No. 820 – 10 clarifies that fair value is an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants.  As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.  As a basis for considering such assumptions, ASC Topic No. 820 – 10 establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:

Level 1.
Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
   
Level 2.
Inputs, other than quoted prices included within Level 1, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and
   
Level 3.
Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.

Certain nonfinancial assets and liabilities are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis in accordance with applicable U.S. GAAP.  This includes items such as nonfinancial assets and liabilities initially measured at fair value in a business combination and nonfinancial long-lived asset groups measured at fair value for an impairment assessment.  In general, nonfinancial assets including goodwill and property and equipment are measured at fair value when there is an indication of impairment and are recorded at fair value only when any impairment is recognized.  
 
7.
Liquidity
 
While the Company incurred a moderate increase in its operating expenses to support the growth of the Company, the Company experienced a decrease in revenues caused by a timing difference on the start of a consulting agreement. Due to our prior history of experiencing negative cash flow from operations and the debt financing that we put in place to cover this historical negative cash flow, as of September 30, 2010, we have approximately $3.1 million of debt coming due January 1, 2014 and another $0.8 million of debt callable at the end of the forbearance period.  In connection with entering into an amended and restated loan agreement with SVB, the Company repaid $0.4 million of this debt using its cash on hand and borrowings under a new accounts receivable line of credit, leaving $0.4 million payable ratably through February 2013. (See “Note 8-Subsequent Events”).  While we expect to be able to fund our operations and build enough cash to pay off this debt from our cash flow, if that is not the case, our long term viability will again depend on our ability to obtain adequate sources of debt or equity funding to fund the continuation of our business operations and to ultimately achieve adequate profitability and cash flows to sustain our operations. We will need to increase revenues from transaction and subscription based software license contracts and professional services agreements and software licenses to become profitable.

Restatement of Financial Statements for  Revenue Recognition
 
On January 21, 2011, the Company’s Audit Committee concluded that the Company’s previously filed financial statements for the Company’s fiscal year ended March 31, 2010 and for the Company’s fiscal quarters ended June 30, 2010 and September 30, 2010 could no longer be relied upon because of an error in such financial statements related to the Company’s accounting for a software license sold during the quarter ended March 31, 2010 (the “License”).

The Company recognized all of the license fee revenue associated with the License in March 2010 when the license agreement was executed and the software was provided to the customer.  In November 2010, the Company entered into a separate service agreement with the customer.  However, the original accounting did not consider the impact of essential services from that agreement which are common for such software to meet the customer’s intended use.  Therefore, the Company has determined that the software license fee revenue should have been recognized over the period the professional services are rendered.  As a result, the license fee was fully deferred and will be recognized over the period the professional services are rendered, which commenced in the third quarter of fiscal 2011. 

To correct this error, the Company has restated the affected financial statements as contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K/A (Amendment No. 2) for the year ended March 31, 2010, the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q/A for the quarter ended June 30, 2010 and this Amended Report.  The Company’s restated financial statements are comprised of the following adjustments:

For the year ended March 31, 2010, (i) revenue decreased by $600,000 (the amount of the license fee), (ii) net loss and accumulated deficit increased by $600,000, (iii) net loss per share increased by $0.02 per share and (iv) deferred revenue increased by $600,000.
 
For the quarter ended September 30, 2010, (i) accumulated deficit increased by $600,000 and (ii) deferred revenue increased by $600,000.

9.  Subsequent Event

Effective as of October 27, 2010, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement (the “New Loan Agreement”) with SVB and related agreements and documents providing for a senior credit facility comprised of an asset-based accounts receivable line of credit (the “A/R Line of Credit”) and a term loan (the “New Credit Facility”).  The New Loan Agreement amends and restates the Loan Agreement (also referred to herein as the “Prior Loan Agreement”) in its entirety.

In connection with the closing of the New Loan Agreement, the Company repaid $402,750 of the outstanding principal amount of the term loan provided by SVB under the Prior Loan Agreement (the “Prior Term Loan”), leaving a principal balance of $402,750 on such term loan that is provided under and governed by the New Loan Agreement (the “Refinanced Term Loan”).  The maturity date of the Refinanced Term Loan is February 1, 2013.  The Refinanced Term Loan accrues interest at the fixed annual rate of 7.00% and is payable monthly.  Principal payments on the Refinanced Term Loan will be made in twenty eight (28) equal monthly installments beginning on November 1, 2010.  The Company used its cash on hand and borrowings under the A/R Line of Credit to fund the partial repayment of the Prior Term Loan.

The maximum availability under the A/R Line of Credit is $1,000,000.  The maturity date of the A/R Line of Credit is February 8, 2011.  The following finance charges and handling fees apply to the A/R Line of Credit:

 
·
A finance charge equal to 1.25% above SVB’s prime rate will be applied to the full face amount of the financed receivables.

An additional collateral handling fee equal to 0.25% per month will applied to the full face amount of the financed receivables.  This collateral handling fee will reduce to 0.10% per month if the Company’s “adjusted quick ratio” is greater than 1.30 at all times during an applicable testing month, with such reduction being effective for the calendar month which is two months after such testing month and where the “adjusted quick ratio” equals (A) cash on hand plus the amount of all eligible accounts divided by (B) current liabilities minus deferred revenue minus the portion of subordinated debt that constitutes current liabilities.

For periods where the Company’s adjusted quick ratio is less than 1.30, it will be subject to the higher collateral handling fee, yielding an indicative annual interest rate on the A/R Line of Credit of approximately 10.31% based on the current SVB prime rate.  For periods where the collateral handling fee is reduced as discussed above, the Company’s indicative annual interest rate on the A/R Line of Credit would be approximately 8.06% based on the current SVB prime rate.  The finance charges and collateral handling fees for a particular financed receivable are due when the advance made on such financed receivable becomes due (as discussed below).

An advance for a particular financed receivable under the A/R Line of Credit is required to be repaid on the earlier to occur of (i) the date on which payment is received on such financed receivable, (ii) the date on which such financed receivable is no longer an eligible account, (iii) the date on which any adjustment is asserted to such financed receivable (but only to the extent of the adjustment if such financed receivable remains otherwise an eligible account), (iv) the date on which there is a breach of certain warranties or representations set forth in the New Loan Agreement related to such financed receivable, or (v) the maturity date of the A/R Line of Credit.

Subject to the commitment limits described above, the Company can borrow up to eighty percent (80%) of its eligible accounts receivable subject to a number of exceptions that include, but are not limited to, receivables that remain unpaid more than 90 days from the invoice date and receivables for work performed that have not yet been invoiced.  Under certain circumstances, SVB can, in its discretion, decrease the 80% cap, adjust the eligibility criteria to be more stringent and/or elect not to make an advance on a particular receivable.  The Company will use the proceeds from the A/R Line of Credit for general corporate purposes.

The New Credit Facility requires that the Company comply with one financial covenant.  That covenant requires that the Company meets the following minimum EBITDA requirements (where “EBITDA” is defined as earnings before expenses relating to interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization in accordance with GAAP, plus equity-based compensation expense):

 
·
The Company’s EBITDA for the month ending August 31, 2010 shall be at least one hundred twenty five percent (125%) of the Company’s projected performance for such month as outlined in the Company’s business plan submitted to SVB (the “Company Plan”).
 
 
18

 

 
·
For the two months ended September 30, 2010, the Company’s EBITDA shall be at least seventy five percent (75%) of the Company’s projected performance for such two (2) month period as outlined in the Company Plan.

 
·
As of each subsequent month beginning with the month ending October 31, 2010, the Company’s EBITDA for the three (3) months ending on such measurement date shall be at least seventy five percent (75%) of the Company’s projected performance for such three (3) month period as outlined in the Company Plan. The indebtedness owed under the New Credit Facility will be fully secured by a perfected first priority security interest in favor of SVB in all of the Company’s assets, including its cash, accounts receivable, inventory, equipment, intellectual property rights and contract rights.
 
Borrowing under the A/R Line of Credit will be conditioned on (i) all representations and warranties contained in the New Loan Agreement being true as of the date of the borrowing request and (ii) no “event of default” having occurred and be continuing or resulting from the requested advance.  The New Loan Agreement contains a number of representations and warranties, including, but not limited to, those pertaining to due organization and existence, collateral, accounts receivable, litigation, the Company’s financial statements, solvency, regulatory compliance, investments, taxes and use of proceeds.  The New Loan Agreement also contains a number of affirmative covenants, including, but not limited to, those pertaining to due organization and existence, government approvals, delivery of financial statements and other certificates, reports and other information, insurance, bank accounts, intellectual property rights, litigation and audit rights.  The New Loan Agreement also contains a number of negative covenants, including, but not limited to, those pertaining to disposition of assets, changes in business and senior management, mergers and acquisitions, cash dividends, investments, transactions with affiliates, subordinated debt and regulatory compliance.

The New Loan Agreement specifies a number of “events of default,” including, but not limited to, payment defaults, the occurrence of a material adverse change, legal attachment to collateral, insolvency, cross-defaults with other agreements, judgments, misrepresentations, and the occurrence or assertion that the New Credit Facility is not senior to any subordinated debt.  In addition, a breach of any of the covenants, representations and warranties, or other provisions of the New Loan Agreement will constitute an event of default, with some of such breaches having a 10-30 day cure period and other breaches (including the financial covenant, the negative covenants and affirmative covenants relating to taxes, insurance, bank accounts and financial statement and other information delivery requirements) having no cure period.  As long as an event of default occurs and is continuing, the interest rates on the A/R Line of Credit and the Refinanced Term Loan will increase by 5.00%.

In addition, pursuant to the New Loan Agreement, SVB waived the following events of default under the Prior Loan Agreement: (i) the Company’s violation of Section 6.7(a) of the Prior Loan Agreement for the April 2010, May 2010, June 2010, July 2010 and August 2010 measuring periods, (ii) the Company’s violation of Section 6.7(b) of the Prior Loan Agreement for the May 2010, June 2010, July 2010 and August 2010 measuring periods, and (iii) the Company’s violations of Section 7.9 and 8.9 of the Prior Loan Agreement and Section 3 of the subordination agreement (entered into in connection with the Prior Loan Agreement), for making interest payments to its subordinated creditors during the period in which the events of default described in clauses (i) and (ii) of this Section 12.13 had occurred and were continuing, through the effective date of the New Loan Agreement.

In consideration of the New Credit Facility, the Company has paid or agreed to pay the following fees to SVB: (1) an upfront cash fee of $2,500 payable at the closing plus (2) an early termination fee of $14,027.50 if the New Loan Agreement is terminated by the Company prior to February 8, 2011 (or if SVB terminates the New Loan Agreement before such date after the occurrence of an event of default).

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
 
The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the unaudited condensed financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K/A (Amendment No. 2) for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010.
 
C$Money Transaction
 
During the quarter ended September 30, 2010, the Company concluded that it would not be able to record the effects of the transactions contemplated by the Strategic Alliance Agreement with C$ cMoney, Inc. (“C$Money”) discussed in Item 7 of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K/A (Amendment No. 2) for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010 in fiscal 2011 or at any time thereafter.  The Company and C$ Money have since rescinded the Strategic Alliance Agreement and other agreements entered into in connection therewith.
 
Critical Accounting Policies
 
The following discussion and analysis of our unaudited condensed financial condition and results of operations is based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, we evaluate these estimates, including those related to revenue recognition and concentration of credit risk. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
 
We believe that of the significant accounting policies used in the preparation of our unaudited condensed financial statements (see Note 2 to the Financial Statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K/A (Amendment No. 2) for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010), the following are critical accounting policies, which may involve a higher degree of judgment, complexity and estimates.
 
Revenue Recognition
 
The Company recognizes revenues associated with its software products in accordance with the provisions of the Financial Accounting Standard Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic No. 985 – 605, “Software Revenue Recognition”.
 
The Company licenses its software on a transactional or a subscription fee basis. In these arrangements, the customer is charged a fee based upon the number of items processed by the software and the Company recognizes revenue as these transactions occur. The transaction fee also includes the provision of standard maintenance and support services as well as product upgrades should such upgrades become available.  If professional services that are essential to the functionality of the software are provided in connection with the installation of the software licensed, revenue is recognized when these services have been provided on a percentage of completion basis.
 
 In certain instances, we license our software products under non-exclusive, non-transferable license agreements that involve services essential to the functionality of the software.  License revenue is recognized when services have been provided on the percentage of completion basis.
 
For license agreements that include a separately identifiable fee for contracted maintenance services, such maintenance revenues are recognized on a straight-line basis over the life of the maintenance agreement noted in the agreement, but following any installation period of the software.
 
In certain instances, the Company enters into arrangements that include multiple elements, where fees are allocated to the various elements based on vendor specific objective evidence of fair value.

Goodwill
 
The goodwill recorded on the Company’s books is from the acquisition of US Dataworks, Inc. in fiscal year 2001 which remains the Company’s single reporting unit. FASB ASC Topic No. 350, “Intangibles – Goodwill and Other Intangibles”, requires goodwill for each reporting unit of an entity be tested for impairment by comparing the fair value of each reporting unit with its carrying value. Fair value is determined using a combination of the discounted cash flow, market multiple and market capitalization valuation approaches. Significant estimates used in the methodologies include estimates of future cash flows, future short-term and long-term growth rates, weighted average cost of capital and estimates of market multiples for each reportable unit. On an ongoing basis, absent any impairment indicators, the Company performs impairment tests annually during the fourth quarter.

FASB ASC Topic No. 350 requires goodwill to be tested annually and between annual tests if events occur or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of the reportable unit below its carrying amount. The Company did not record an impairment of goodwill for either the six months ended September 30, 2010 or the year ended March 31, 2010.
 
Goodwill is classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy.
 
Concentrations of Credit Risk
 
We extend credit to our customers and perform ongoing credit evaluations of our customers. We do not obtain collateral from our customers to secure our accounts receivables. We evaluate our accounts receivable on a regular basis for collectability and provide for an allowance for potential credit losses as deemed necessary.
 
Three of our customers accounted for 61%, 10% and 9% of our net revenues for the six months ended September 30, 2010. Two of our customers accounted for 59% and 12% of our net revenues for the six months ended September 30, 2009.
 
At September 30, 2010, amounts due from four of our customers accounted for 38%, 19%, 13% and 10% of accounts receivable. At September 30, 2009, amounts due from five of our customers accounted for 36%, 12%, 12%, 12% and 10% of accounts receivable
 
Results of Operations
 
The results of operations reflected in this discussion include our operations for the three and six month periods ended September 30, 2010 and 2009.

We generate revenues from (a) licensing and supporting software with fees due on a transactional or subscription basis (b) licensing software with fees due on the grant of the license and delivery of the software, (c) providing maintenance, enhancement and support for previously licensed products, and (d) providing professional services.
 
Revenues decreased for the three and six months ended September 30, 2010, by 18% and 25%, respectively, as compared to the same periods ended September 30, 2009.  For the three and six months ended September 30, 2010, (i) professional services revenue decreased by 28% and 35%, respectively, primarily due to the timing of the completion of certain professional services contracts and the start of new contracts, (ii) software maintenance revenues decreased 32% and 32%, respectively, due to the non-renewal of certain maintenance agreements, (iii)  software transactional and subscription revenue increased by 13% and 4%, respectively, due to the addition three new customers and increased transactions of larger customer, all as compared to the same periods ended September 30, 2009.  We expect our transactional revenue to grow as more of our current customers, along with new customers, begin to run more of their business through our software products.

Cost of Revenues
 
Costs of revenues include the cost of other third party software resold in connection with our software and personnel costs associated with our software, maintenance, support, training and installation services. Cost of revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2010 decreased by $84,052, or 13%, to $586,266 as compared to $670,318 for the prior period.  Cost of revenues for the six month ended September 30, 2010 decreased by $154,166, or 11.4%, to $1,192,523 as compared to $1,346,689 for the prior year period. This decrease was primarily due to a decrease of $22,000 and $70,000 in the cost of third party software purchased for resale for the three and six months ended September 30, 2010, respectively, and a decrease of $40,000 and $102,000 in outside consulting labor costs for the three and six months ended September 30, 2010, respectively, due to reduction in professional services performed.
 
Operating Expenses
 
Total operating expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2010, increased by $20,580, or 2%, to $1,307,638 as compared to $1,287,058 for the prior year period. Total operating expenses for the six months ended September 30, 2010 increased by $219,010, or 9%, to $2,596,592 as compared to $2,377,582 for the prior year period.
 
General and administrative expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2010 increased by $4,189, or 1%, as compared to prior year period due to an $80,000 increase in payroll due to salary increase, overlap of positions and a severance payment, partially offset by a $38,000 decrease in bonus and accounting accruals and a $34,000 decrease in stock-based compensation.  General and administrative expenses for the six months ended September 30, 2010 increased by $177,411, or 13%, as compared to the prior year period primarily attributable to a $101,000 increase in general and administrative personnel expenses, a $93,000 increase in legal expense associated with the Company’s delisting issues, a $40,000 increase in outside consultant expense, partially offset by a $29,000 decrease in stock-based compensation expense.
 
Research and development expenses for the three and six months ended September 30, 2010 increased by $35,512 and $65,082, respectively, as compared to the prior year periods due to increases in personnel and outside services.  Sales and marketing expenses for the three and six months ending September 30, 2010 decreased by $26,425 and $16,398, respectively, as compared to prior year periods due to a decrease in salary expenses.

 
22

 

In our effort to promote our brand name, increase our client base and expand our relationship with existing clients, we expect our operating expenses in both research and development and sales and marketing to increase.
 
Our depreciation and amortization expense for the three months ended September 30, 2010 increased by $7,304, or 18.7%, as compared to the prior year period due to the purchase of additional equipment and from the correction of lives of leasehold improvements.  Depreciation and amortization for the six months ended September 30, 2010 decreased by $6,545, or 7.9%, due to a number of our property and equipment items attaining a fully depreciated state during the fiscal year.
 
Other Expenses
 
Other expenses, including interest expense and financing costs, for the three months ended September 30, 2010 decreased by $199,303, or 70%, to $85,260 as compared to $284,563 for the prior year period.  Other expenses, including interest expense and financing costs, for the six months ended September 30, 2010 decreased by $320,501, or 58.3%, to $229,541 as compared to $550,042 for the prior year period. The decrease was primarily due to the effects of the restructuring of the related party notes on interest expense and the release of a $60,000 accrual of interest associated with debt.
 
Net Loss
 
Net loss for the months ended September 30, 2010 increased by $119,516 to a net loss of $274,266 as compared $154,750 for the prior year period.  Net loss for the six months ended September 30, 2010 increased by $768,757, to a net loss of $947,420 as compared to a net loss of $178,663.  For details related to this loss see the preceding discussions related to revenues, cost of revenues, operating expenses and other income sections above.
 
Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
While the Company incurred a moderate increase in its operating expenses to support the growth of the Company, the Company experienced a decrease in revenues caused by a timing difference on the start of a consulting agreement. Due to our prior history of experiencing negative cash flow from operations and the debt financing that we put in place to cover this historical negative cash flow, as of September 30, 2010, we have approximately $3.1 million of debt coming due January 1, 2014 and another $0.8 million of debt callable at the end of the forbearance period.  In connection with entering into an amended and restated loan agreement with SVB, the Company repaid $0.4 million of this debt using its cash on hand and borrowings under a new accounts receivable line of credit, leaving $0.4 million payable ratably through February 2013. (See “Note 8-Subsequent Events”).
 
While we expect to be able to fund our operations and build enough cash to pay off this debt from our cash flow, if that is not the case, our long term viability will again depend on our ability to obtain adequate sources of debt or equity funding to fund the continuation of our business operations and to ultimately achieve adequate profitability and cash flows to sustain our operations. We will need to increase revenues from transaction and subscription based software license contracts and professional services agreements and software licenses to become profitable.
 
Cash and cash equivalents decreased by $198,829 to $308,418 at September 30, 2010 from $507,247 at June 30, 2010.  Cash provided by operating activities was $137,025 for the six months ended September 30, 2010 compared to $123,293 used by operating activities for the same period in the prior fiscal year.
 
Investing activities used $88,844 in the six months ended September 30, 2010 compared to no cash used by investing activities for the same period in the prior fiscal year.
 
Financing activities used cash of $184,305 in the six months ended September 30, 2010 as compared to $128,743 of cash used by financing activities in the six months ended September 30, 2009.

We believe we currently have adequate capital resources to fund our anticipated cash needs through March 31, 2011. However, an adverse business or legal development could require us to raise additional financing sooner than anticipated. We recognize that we may be required to raise such additional capital, at times and in amounts, which are uncertain, especially under the current capital market conditions. If we are unable to raise additional capital or are required to raise it on terms that are less satisfactory than we desire, it may have a material adverse effect on our financial condition. In the event we raise additional equity, these financings may result in dilution to existing shareholders.

Item 4.   Controls and Procedures 
 
(a)  Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures. We maintain “disclosure controls and procedures,” as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, or the Exchange Act, that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures are met. Our disclosure controls and procedures have been designed to meet reasonable assurance standards. Additionally, in designing disclosure controls and procedures, our management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible disclosure controls and procedures. The design of any disclosure controls and procedures also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.
 
Based on their evaluation as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q/A, management has identified a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting, which is an integral component of our disclosure controls and procedures.  As a result of this material weakness, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of September 30, 2010. 
  
As stated in our Annual Report on Form 10-K/A (Amendment No. 2) for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010, management identified a material weakness in our internal control over revenue recognition of license fee revenue, which is an integral component of our disclosure controls and procedures.  Specifically our management concluded that at March 31, 2010, there was an error regarding the recognition of license revenue at time of delivery as opposed to percentage of completion over the term of professional services are rendered.  Our management concluded that there was a material weakness in the application of the accounting treatment regarding the determination of revenue recognition for software provided to customers where professional services are essential to the functionality of the software.  This material weakness resulted in an error in the Company’s accounting and disclosures for revenue, net loss, and shareholders’ equity and resulted in the restatement of the financial statements for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010  and for the quarter ended September 30, 2010.  As of the date of filing of this Amended Report, we have since developed and implemented new procedures to remediate this material weakness. Specifically, all future licenses will be reviewed to ensure appropriate consideration of undelivered services on the accounting treatment. These procedures will be documented internal controls and will be reviewed annually.
 
(b)  Changes in internal control over financial reporting. There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) identified in connection with management’s evaluation during our last fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
