Independent Auditors’ Report
 
The Board of Directors
EnVision Systems, Inc.:
 
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of EnVision Systems, Inc. and subsidiary as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the years then ended. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.
 
We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
 
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of EnVision Systems, Inc. and subsidiary as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the results of  their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

ENVISION SYSTEMS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2010 and 2009
 
 
(1)  
Nature of Business
 
EnVision Systems, Inc. (EnVision or the Company) was founded in 1991 and is headquartered in Madison, New Jersey. The Company provides consulting services for proprietary software in the petrochemical industry in the Pacific Basin, United States of America, Europe, and the Middle East. EnVision’s tutorials and simulation models serve the rapidly growing entry-level training market for the oil & gas, refining, and specialty chemicals industries. EnVision’s products provide a foundation in process fundamentals, and plant operations and interaction. EnVision has an installed base of more than 750 systems in over 28 countries, and its approximately 130 clients include Shell Oil Company, British Petroleum, Total, and Chevron.
 
(2)  
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
 
(a)  
Basis of Accounting
 
This discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its majority-owned subsidiary.
 
(b)  
Principles of Consolidation
 
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include our accounts and those of our majority-owned subsidiary, EnVision Systems India Pvt. Ltd. (ESIP) located in Chennai, India. Noncontrolling interest represents a minority owner’s proportionate share of the equity in our consolidated entities. All significant intercompany transactions and account balances have been eliminated in consolidation. ESIP provides engineering support to EnVision US and has no third-party customers.
 
(c)  
Accounting Estimates
 
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles 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 consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The Company’s most significant estimate relates to revenue recognition, collectability of contract receivables and pre-contract costs. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
(d)  
Revenue Recognition
 
The majority of the Company’s revenue is derived through the sale of uniquely designed systems containing computer software under fixed price contracts. In accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, the revenue under these fixed-price contracts is accounted for on the percentage-of-completion method. This methodology recognizes revenue and earnings as work progresses on the contract and is based on an estimate of the revenue and earnings earned to date, less amounts recognized in prior periods. The Company bases its estimate of the degree of completion of the contract by reviewing the relationship of costs incurred to date to the expected total costs that will be incurred on the project. Estimated contract earnings are reviewed and revised periodically as the work progresses, and the cumulative effect of any change in estimate is recognized in the period in which the change is identified. Estimated losses are charged against earnings in the period such losses are identified. The Company recognizes revenue arising from contract claims either as income or as an offset against a potential loss only when the amount of the claim can be estimated reliably and realization is probable and there is a legal basis of the claim.

The Company typically includes one year of free maintenance support within its system design contracts. This support may include software upgrades, software enhancements, or telephone support. The Company accounts for this maintenance support by deferring a portion of the contract value until completion and acceptance of the product by the end customer. The Company then recognizes this deferred portion on a monthly basis over the 12-month period subsequent to the product’s acceptance. In addition, the Company also sells maintenance contracts to its customers once the one-year initial maintenance period-ends. Maintenance and support fees are billed based on a percentage of the total cost of the installed software multiplied by an annual escalation of CPI-U or 5%, whichever is less. The maintenance revenue is recognized on a monthly basis over the term of the maintenance period.
 
Revenue from the sale of software licenses that do not require significant modifications or customization for the Company's tutorials and simulator models are recognized when the license agreement is signed, the license fee is fixed and determinable, delivery has occurred, and collection is considered probable.
 
Revenues from certain consulting or training contracts are recognized on a time-and-material basis. For time-and-material type contracts, revenue is recognized based on hours incurred at a contracted labor rate plus expenses.
 
(e)  
Cash and Cash Equivalents
 
For purposes of reporting cash flows, the Company considers all cash accounts that are not subject to withdrawal restrictions or penalties and certificates of deposit with original maturities of 90 days or less to be cash or cash equivalents.
 
The Company had $553,414 and $913,377 in cash and cash equivalents as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.
 
(f)  
Contract Receivables
 
Contract receivables include billed receivables that are recorded at invoiced amounts, and recoverable costs and accrued profit not billed, which represents revenue recognized in excess of amounts billed. The liability “Billings in excess of revenue earned” represents billings in excess of revenue recognized.
 
(g)  
Property, Plant, and Equipment, Net
 
Property, plant, and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the respective classes of property. Maintenance and repairs, including replacement of minor items of physical properties, are charged to expense.
 
Major classes and estimated useful lives of property, plant, and equipment are as follows:
 
(i) Computers - (3 years);
 
(ii) Furniture and Office Equipment (5-7 years); and
 
(iii) Vehicles (3-4 years).

(h)  
Pre-contract Costs
 
Development expenditures incurred to meet customer specifications under contracts are charged to contract costs. Company-sponsored development expenditures and costs incurred for products awaiting a signed contract are included in pre-contract costs. The expenditures included in pre-contract costs were $18,316 and $208,286 as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.
 
(i)  
Income Taxes
 
Income taxes are provided under the asset and liability method. Under this method, deferred income taxes are determined based on the differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amounts expected to be realized. Provision is made for the Company’s current liability for federal, state, and foreign income taxes and the change in the Company’s deferred income tax assets and liabilities.
 
The Company recognizes the effect of income tax positions only if those positions are more likely than not of being sustained. Recognized income tax positions are measured at the largest amount that is greater than 50% likely of being realized. Changes in recognition or measurement are reflected in the period in which the change in judgment occurs. The Company records interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense.
 
(j)  
 Noncontrolling Interest
 
On January 1, 2009, the Company adopted Statement 160, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements – an amendment of ARB No. 51 (codified in FASB ASC Subtopic 810-10, Consolidation—Overall), which requires certain changes to the presentation of the financial statements. This guidance requires noncontrolling interests (previously referred to as minority interest) to be classified in the consolidated statements of operations as part of consolidated net earnings and to include the accumulated amount of noncontrolling interests in the consolidated balance sheets as part of shareholders’ equity. If a change in ownership of a consolidated subsidiary results in loss of control and deconsolidation, any retained ownership interests are remeasured with the gain or loss reported in net earnings.  At of January 1, 2009 the accumulated amount of noncontrolling interest in the consolidated balance sheet equaled $61,853.
 
(3)  
Contract Receivables
 
Contract receivables represent balances due from both domestic and international customers. All contract receivables are considered to be collectible within 12 months. Recoverable costs and accrued profit not billed represent costs incurred and associated profit accrued on contracts that will become billable upon future milestones or completion of contracts. The components of contract receivables are as follows:
 


   
2010
   
2009
 
Billed receivables

Investment in Envision Systems (India) Private, Limited
 
In 1993, the Company invested as a majority stockholder (50.9%) in the establishment of a software developer corporation (Envision Systems India Private, Ltd., ESIP) in Chennai, India. Contracts with customers are entered into by the Company, while development work is carried out by ESIP under an annual transfer pricing agreement between the entities. ESIP does not own any Intellectual Property rights to the products developed for the Company. The Company consolidates their investment of ESIP. The remaining 49.1% is noncontrolling interest and represents the minority owners' proportionate shares of the equity.
 
On December 31, 2010, the Company purchased 48.9% of the outstanding shares of ESIP from the noncontrolling shareholders for $289,490. This transaction increased the Company’s ownership of EnVision India to 99.8%.  An additional shareholder owns the remaining 0.2% of ESIP.
 
(7)  
Provision for Income Taxes
 
The Company is organized as a C corporation and is a cash basis taxpayer.  However, the Company’s financial statements are recorded on the accrual basis of accounting.  The temporary timing differences between the two methods resulted in deferred tax liabilities of $420,491 and $303,307 at December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

As of December 31, 2010, the Company had $17,626 of accrued interest related to these tax positions.
