Teleconnect Inc.
Form 10-Q/A
(Amendment No. 1)
For the Quarterly Period Ended March 31, 2011

Our condensed consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2011 and for the three and six months ended March 31, 2011 and related condensed footnote disclosures in the Amendment No. 1 to the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q/A have been restated in accordance with the changes described below:

On July 20, 2011, management of Teleconnect Inc. (the “Company”) was advised by its independent public accountants that the financial statements filed in the Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended December 31, 2010 and March 31, 2011, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 22, 2011 and May 20, 2011, respectively, contain errors relating to amortization of certain intangibles.  The Company has determined that the amortization of the intangibles related to the HEM purchase was improperly calculated resulting in $303,312 excess amortization being reported in the quarterly condensed consolidated statements ended March 31, 2011.

The condensed consolidated financial statements and other financial information included in the Amendment No. 1 have been restated accordingly.  The public should no longer rely on our previously filed financial statements for the three and six months ended March 31, 2011.  These matters have been discussed by our authorized executive officers and with our independent registered certified public accounting firm.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)

March 31, 2011

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Teleconnect Inc. (the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and six month periods ended March 31, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year.

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Teleconnect Inc. and its subsidiary PhotoWizz BV (“MediaWizz”) for the three and six months ended March 31, 2011 as well as its newly acquired subsidiaries Wilroot B. V. (Wilroot) and Hollandsche Exploitatie Maatschappij (HEM) since October 15, 2010; the date of acquisition. The consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended March 31, 2010 include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiary PhotoWizz BV (“MediaWizz”) as well as those for its discontinued subsidiaries of Teleconnect Spain, Teleconnect Telecom and Recarganet for the two months ended November 25, 2009; date at which they were sold. All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated.

The balance sheet at September 30, 2010 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2010.

Revenue Recognition -

The Company recognizes revenue from the sale of multimedia hardware components in the period in which title has passed and services have been rendered. The Company recognizes revenue from narrowcasting and age validation services when services have been rendered.

2. RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

In January 2010, the FASB issued amendments to existing accounting guidance regarding fair value measurements and disclosures and improvement in the disclosure about fair value measurements. These amendments require additional disclosures regarding significant transfers in and out of Levels 1 and 2 of fair value measurements, including a description of the reasons for the transfers. Further, this amendment requires additional disclosures for the activity in Level 3 fair value measurements, requiring presentation of information about purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements in the reconciliation for fair value measurements. This amendment is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010, and for interim periods within those fiscal years. We are currently evaluating the impact of these amendments; however, we do not expect the adoption of these amendments to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

3 FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT

Fair Value Measurements under GAAP clarifies the principle that fair value should be based on the assumptions market participants would use when pricing an asset or liability and establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the information used to develop those assumptions. Under the standard, fair value measurements are separately disclosed by level within the fair value hierarchy, as follows:

Level 1 - Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 - Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of fair value of assets or liabilities.

 
6

 

To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement is disclosed and is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

The carrying value of the Company’s cash, accounts and other receivables, prepayments, accounts payable, and other current assets and liabilities approximate fair value because of their short-term maturity. All other significant financial assets, financial liabilities and equity instruments of the Company are either recognized or disclosed in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements together with other information relevant for making a reasonable assessment of future cash flows, interest rate risk and credit risk. Where practicable the fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities have been determined and disclosed; otherwise only available information pertinent to fair value has been disclosed.

As of March 31, 2011, there were no financial assets or liabilities that were measured at fair value on a recurring basis.

4. BUSINESS COMBINATION

On October 15, 2010, the Company completed its acquisition of 100% of Wilroot and its wholly owned subsidiary HEM (Wilroot/HEM). Previously Wilroot/HEM and the Company agreed, for the purpose of the transaction, to transfer effective control of Wilroot/HEM to the Company as of October 1, 2010. The Company issued 675,505 shares of its restricted common stock valued at $709,280 along with the assumption of debt and other liabilities of $7,740,102 for a total purchase consideration of $8,449,382.

HEM developed the age validation system “Ageviewers”. The Company’s existing subsidiaries MediaWizz and Giga are important parts of the Ageviewers system supply chain and combining them with Wilroot/HEM allows further integration of the system.

The acquisition was accounted for as a purchase transaction. As required by the applicable guidance in effect at the time of the acquisition, the Company valued all assets and liabilities acquired at their fair values on the date of acquisition. An independent valuation expert assisted the Company in determining these fair values. Accordingly, the assets and liabilities of the acquired entity were recorded at their estimated fair values at the date of the acquisition. The Company is currently completing its review of the valuation methods and procedures that were used therefore the purchase price allocation is preliminary. The following table presents the preliminary allocation of the purchase price to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, and based on their estimated fair values.

In connection with the acquisition the Company acquired the Ageviewers software and the terminal and kiosk hardware designs. The Company valued the Ageviewers software based on replacement cost of development using current observable market rates for software engineers (level 2 inputs, see Note 3) which resulted in a fair market value of $3,257,659. The terminal and kiosk hardware designs were valued based on replacement cost of development using current observable market rates for engineers (level 2 inputs, see Note 3) which resulted in a fair market value of $690,347. The software and designs will be amortized over a useful life of 5 years.
 
The Company also acquired patents and processes associated with the Ageviewers system as well as its trade name. The patents and processes were valued by the Company using the relief from royalty valuation technique (level 2 inputs, see Note 3) which resulted in a fair market value of $2,003,044. The Ageviewers trade name was valued by the Company using the relief from royalty valuation technique (level 2 inputs, see Note 3) which resulted in a fair market value of $1,082,549. The patents, processes and trade name are being amortized over a 10 year remaining life.

Total amortization of $489,716 was included in the condensed consolidated financial statements for the six months ended March 31, 2011. Amortization expense is expected to be approximately $1,062,000 annually in each of the next five years.
 
The fair value of the net assets acquired was in excess of the consideration paid by the Company, resulting in a "bargain purchase gain." Upon the determination that the Company was going to recognize a gain related to the bargain purchase, the Company reassessed its valuation assumptions utilized as part of the acquisition accounting. No adjustments to the acquisition accounting valuations were identified as a result of management’s reassessment. The bargain purchase gain is included in the other income (expenses) in the condensed consolidated financial statements for the six months ended March 31, 2011. The events and circumstances allowing the Company to acquire Wilroot/HEM at a bargain were related to the ability of Wilroot/HEM to have access to public equity markets to raise funding for the rollout of Ageviewers in The Netherlands and the liquidity provided to the stockholders of Wilroot/HEM by gaining stock in the Company.

There is $17,396 of revenues and $1,624,680 of operating losses from Wilroot/HEM included in the condensed consolidated financial statements for the period October 15, 2010 to March 31, 2011.

Pro-forma financial information

The unaudited pro forma results presented below include the effects of the Company’s October 2010 acquisition of Wilroot/HEM as if the acquisitions and merger had been consummated as of October 1, 2009. The pro-forma earnings/(loss) for the six month periods ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 include the additional depreciation and amortization resulting from the adjustments to the value of property and equipment and intangible assets resulting from purchase accounting and a reduction in the interest expense between the companies. However, the pro forma results do not include any anticipated synergies or other expected benefits of the acquisition. Accordingly, the unaudited pro forma financial information below is not necessarily indicative of either future results of operations or results that might have been achieved had the acquisitions and merger been consummated as of October 1, 2009.

6. LOANS FROM RELATED PARTIES

During the six months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 the Company obtained $1,694,971 and $401,506, respectively, in additional short term loans from related parties, consisting principally of shareholders, net of currency translation adjustments. The Company also assumed $6,969,858 in related party notes from the acquisition of Wilroot/HEM (Note 4).  These loans bear interest between 0% and 8% annually, are unsecured and due upon demand.  The weighted average interest rate of the loans from related parties for the six months ended March 31, 2011 was 0.33%.  During the three months ended March 31, 2011, the Company settled $237,287 (€167,021) of loans from a related party for $7,104 (€5,000) which has been accounting for as a component of stockholders’ deficit in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.

7. EQUITY TRANSACTIONS

On October 15, 2010 the company issued 675,505 shares of restricted common stock valued at $709,280 for the purchase of Wilroot/HEM (Note 3).

On December 2, 2010 the Company agreed with the holder of the loan from related party to issue 250,000 shares of the Company’s restricted common stock for $348,741 in accrued interest.

On February 25, 2011, the Company issued 112,584 shares of its common stock valued at $67,549 for director’s compensation.

8. INCOME TAXES

The Company recorded $80,000 of tax benefit for the six months ended March 31, 2011 due to the abatement of penalties and interest related to fiscal year 2007. For the six months ended March 31, 2010 income tax expense was offset by the use of net operating losses from prior periods. As of March 31, 2011, the Company continues to record an income tax valuation allowance equal to the benefit of any remaining income tax carry-forwards due to the uncertain nature of its realization.

9. EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE

10. GIGA MATRIX HOLDING

The Company accounts for its investment in Giga Matrix Holding, BV (“Giga”), including amounts due from Giga, under the equity method.  Pursuant to accounting guidance the Company has combined its investment in Giga and amounts due from Giga for purposes of determining the amount of losses to be recognized under the equity method, accordingly, the Company recognized $21,762 and $103,503 in losses on its equity investment during the six months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

The Company has analyzed its investment in Giga and determined that, while Giga is a variable interest entity, the Company is not the primary beneficiary due to the fact that the Company has no further financial obligations to support Giga, and therefore it is not required to be consolidated.

Results of operations of Giga for the six months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 are as follows:

   
2011

12. GOING CONCERN

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.  The Company’s recent losses and cash requirements, among other things, may indicate the Company will be unable to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time.   Management anticipates that it will be able to convert certain outstanding debt into equity and that it will be able to raise additional working capital.   The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company’s ability to attain a satisfactory level of profitability and obtain suitable and adequate financing. There can be no assurance that management's plan will be successful.

INTRODUCTION

The Company’s current business model is based on an innovative age validation system which verifies a consumer’s age when purchasing a product that is restricted for minors, such as alcohol or tobacco. On October 15, 2010, the Company completed its acquisition of 100% of Wilroot B.V. (Wilroot) and its wholly owned subsidiary, Hollandsche Exploitatie Maatschappij (HEM), which developed the age validation system “Ageviewers”. The Company’s existing subsidiary, PhotoWizz BV (MediaWizz), and its investment in Giga Matrix Holding, BV (Giga) are important parts of the Ageviewers system supply chain and combining them with Wilroot/HEM allows further integration of the system.

The idea for Ageviewers was conceived in 2007. During market preparation, the first two and a half years were spent developing the underlying technology. Thereafter, pilots were deployed to supermarkets and liquor stores in the Netherlands in order to publicly demonstrate the effectiveness of the system (refer to: Journal of Adolescent Health, 2009 1-3, for example). In 2009, HEM was awarded subsidies by both the European community and the Dutch government for the social and technical innovation demonstrated with the Ageviewers solution.

Management is currently investing to create an installed base of customers using the system to evidence its acceptance in the marketplace. Our future revenues and operating results will depend upon the success of the four pillars of our business model which are: the manufacturing and leasing of age validation equipment, the performance of age validation transactions, the performance of market surveys and the broadcasting of in-store commercial messages using age validation equipment between age checks.

Since September 2010, and with an endorsement by a Dutch independent liquor store association, the Company has entered into 3-year service contracts with over 100 alcohol outlets in the Netherlands. When installed, the Company would consider this installed base to be a solid point from which to start pursuing international business. The Company intends to realize its domestic and international expansion plans by taking advantage of its experiences in the Netherlands as well as the Company’s access to investment markets.

The rate of adoption of the Company’s age verification solution by retail chains will be influenced over time by government laws relating to the regulation and availability of alcohol and tobacco as well as the enforcement of the associated penalties for those caught infringing the law. Additionally, the Company expects that the current level of social damages, the trend towards stiffer penalties, and the trend toward self-scan checkouts will cause the age verification market to further develop. HEM’s current market, the Netherlands, includes approximately 7,500 stores conducting about 350 million age-restricted transactions per year. The Company estimates the European and US market to be at least 40 times larger and expects it will be able to access a significant portion of those markets.

For further information refer to the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2010.

BALANCE SHEET COMPARISON AT MARCH 31, 2011 AND SEPTEMBER 30, 2010
 
Assets: Total assets at March 31, 2011 increased by $7,559,977 or 390% to $9,496,662 compared to $1,936,685 at September 30, 2010. This increase is due primarily to the addition of property and equipment of nearly $3,514,000 and patents and trade names valued at approximately $3,284,000 associated with our acquisition of Wilroot/HEM during the quarter ended December 31, 2010.

Liabilities: Current liabilities at March 31, 2011 increased by $7,076,075 or 205% to $10,523,240 compared to $3,447,165 at September 30, 2010. This increase is due primarily to the loans from related parties acquired in the Wilroot/HEM acquisition of approximately $5.5 million, net of approximately $1.8 million in loans from HEM to the Company which were eliminated by the acquisition. The Company also received approximately $1.9 million in additional related party loans during the six months ended March 31, 2011 for funding of operations and new contract installations.

COMPARISON OF THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2011 AND 2010 (CONTINUING  OPERATIONS)

We had a net loss of $1,278,380 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 as compared to net loss of $335,712 during the comparable period in 2010. A comparison of revenues and expenses for the two periods is as follows:

REVENUES

Sales for the three months ended March 31, 2011 remained comparable to the quarter ended March 31, 2010 as professional services related to the installations of the age verification equipment remained the only source of revenues. During 2010, management focused on creating an installed base of the age validation system in stores so as to demonstrate its acceptance by store owners as well as by the general public. As such, its priority was not the generation of income but rather building the credibility of the age validation solution.

In order to achieve this in a short period of time, special conditions have been negotiated with the initial 100 stores contracted so far such that the Company anticipates that the revenues from these stores will come from narrowcasting services. Going forward, the Company plans that it will be able to gradually start charging a transaction fee per age check as the number of new contracts increases. These transaction fees and the rental of age validation equipment will eventually become the main sources of revenue for the Company.

At December 31, 2010, the Company had exceeded its objective of at least doubling the number of clients contracted for three-year service agreements from September 30, 2010 (from twenty to fifty). At March 31, 2011, the company had again exceeded its objective of doubling the number of contracts completed (from fifty to one hundred). The installation of age validation equipment in connection to the agreements contracted through March 31, 2011 is currently in process and due to be fulfilled before the end of the fourth fiscal quarter of 2011.

As of March 31, 2011, the age verification system has been installed in 31 stores of which 13 are operational. As of the date of this filing, installation has been completed in 42 stores of which now 25 have put the system into use. The Company plans another 6 installations and 5 activations before the end of May 2011. The Company expects to install and or activate a significant portion of its outstanding orders during its third fiscal quarter. The Company believes it will be able to negotiate an agreement with a major service provider to facilitate the generation of income from future narrowcasting services from the installed base of stores.

COST OF SALES

Cost of sales increased by $57,760 or 419% to $71,533 during the three months ended March 31, 2011 from $13,773 during the same period in 2010. This increase in cost of sales is associated with the installations of the age validation system in new stores.

SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES

Selling, general and administrative expenses have increased by $681,645 or 304% to $905,694 during the three months ended March 31, 2011 as compared to $224,049 for the comparable period in 2010.  This increase in selling, general and administrative expenses is primarily due to the consolidation of the selling, general and administrative expenses recorded in HEM, as well as the additional cost of outside professional services related to the Company’s acquisition of HEM .

 
14

 

COMPARISON OF THE SIX MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2011 AND 2010 (CONTINUING  OPERATIONS)

We had net loss of $773,280 for the six months ended March 31, 2011 as compared to net income of $2,529,858 during the comparable period in 2010. The difference is primarily due to income realized in 2010 from the sale of the discontinued operations. A comparison of revenues and expenses for the two periods is as follows:

REVENUES

Sales for the six months ended March 31, 2011, decreased by $214,596 or nearly 92% to $19,914 from $234,510 for the six months ended March 31, 2010. The decrease in sales is attributed to the fact that the Company redirected its efforts to creating an installed base of age validation terminals in stores. As a result, the Company discontinued sales of calling credit through kiosks early in the quarter ended March 31, 2010.

Revenues during the six months ended March 31, 2011 are derived from the installation of our Ageviewers system while revenues during the comparable period in 2010 was the result of the sale of kiosks and calling credits.

COST OF SALES

Cost of sales decreased by $35,030 or nearly 19% to $148,876 during the six months ended March 31, 2011 from $183,906 during the same period in 2010. This decrease in cost of sales is directly attributable to the fact that for the six month period in 2010, the cost of sales included the cost of providing calling credit traffic while none of this cost is applicable in the same six month period ended March 31, 2011.  This decrease was somewhat offset by an increase in the cost of rendering professional installation services associated with the new contracts as previously mention above.

SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES

Selling, general and administrative expenses have increased by $1,041,011 or nearly 174% to $1,640,660 during the six months ended March 31, 2011 as compared to $599,649 for the comparable period in 2010. This increase in selling, general and administrative expenses is primarily due to the additional cost of outside professional services related to the Company’s acquisition of HEM, as well as the consolidation of the selling, general and administrative expenses recorded in HEM.

COMPARISON OF THE SIX MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2011 AND 2010 (DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS)

The discontinued operations were sold on November 25, 2009 at which time the Company recognized a gain of approximately $3.2 million.
 
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

At March 31, 2011 and September 30, 2010, Teleconnect Inc. had negative working capital of approximately $8,582,000 and $1,942,000, respectively. This decrease of working capital, is a reflection of the increase in loans from related parties as a result of the acquisition of HEM during the six month period ended March 31, 2011. The Company also received approximately $1.9 million in additional related party loans during the six months ended March 31, 2011 for funding of operations and new contract installations.

The ability of the Company to satisfy its obligations and to continue as a going concern will depend upon its ability to raise funds through the sale of additional shares of its Common Stock, increase borrowing, and upon its ability to reach a profitable level of operations. The Company’s financial statements do not reflect adjustments that might result from its inability to continue as a going concern and these adjustments could be material.

The Company’s capital resources have been provided primarily by capital contributions from stockholders, stockholders’ loans, the conversion of outstanding debt into Common Stock of the Company, and services rendered in exchange for Common Stock.

The Company intends to look for additional equity funding to pay debts and for working capital. However, there is no assurance that such capital will be raised, and the Company may seek bank financing and other sources of financing to complete the payment of additional debt. The Company is in the process of preparing a possible private placement offering to European investors.

DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

In March 2009, the Company entered into an agreement to sell ITS Europe, Teleconnect Spain, Teleconnect Telecom and Recarganet to certain employees and officers of Teleconnect Spain with the Company retaining 10% of Teleconnect Spain.  The results of operations of these subsidiaries were reported as “discontinued operations”. The Company will account for of its remaining interest in Teleconnect SA by the cost method.  The sale of Teleconnect Spain, Teleconnect Telecom and Recarganet was completed on November 25, 2009.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

During the period ended March 31, 2011, a related party advanced the Company funds of approximately $1,925,000 to cover normal operating costs in the short term. The advances bear no interest.

On December 2, 2010 the Company agreed to issue 250,000 shares of Company common stock for approximately $349,000 in accrued related party interest.

On December 2, 2010, the Company reached an agreement that advances from a related party who has loaned the Company (including the newly acquired HEM) approximately $6.9 million will bear no interest for the period October 1, 2010 through September 30, 2011.

During March 2011 the Company settled $237,287 (€167,021) related party notes for $7,104 (€5,000).

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

The Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer as of March 31, 2011, after evaluating the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, Rule 13a-14(c)and 15d-14(c)) as of a date within 90 days of the filing date of this report on Form 10-Q for March 31, 2011, have concluded that as of the Evaluation Date, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are not yet sufficiently adequate to completely ensure that material information relating to the Company and the Company’s consolidated subsidiaries would have be made known to them by others within those entities,  during the period in which this quarterly report on Form 10-Q was being prepared. The Company had identified certain weaknesses in its control procedures during 2010 and is in the process of correcting these.

The Company has policies and procedures that require the financial statements and related disclosures be reviewed and that the financial statements are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The Company, in certain circumstances, utilizes a third party consultant to assist with the preparation of the financial statements and related disclosures.

In order to mitigate material weaknesses, management intends to implement further procedures providing for the timely review of all subsidiary supplied financial statements, consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto.

The presence of material weaknesses does not mean that a material misstatement has occurred in our financial statements, but only that our present controls might not be adequate to detect or prevent a material misstatement in a timely manner.
