We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Cables Unlimited, Inc.

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 audit.

CABLES UNLIMITED, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1 – Business activities and summary of significant accounting policies
 
Business activities
 
Cables Unlimited, Inc. (the “Company” or “Cables Unlimited”) is an established high quality fiber optic custom cable manufacturer based in Long Island, New York.  The Company is a Corning Cable Systems CAH Connections (SM) Gold Program member, authorized to manufacture optic products that are backed by Corning Cable Systems’ extended warranty.  The products manufactured by Cables Unlimited include custom fiber optic cable assemblies, adapters and electromechanical wiring harnesses for communications, computer, LAN, automotive and medical equipment. The Company also provides installation services of fiber optic cable assemblies, adapters, and electromechanical wiring harnesses.
 
Principles of consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its variable interest entity (“VIE”) K&K Unlimited LLC (“K&K”).  All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Variable interest entity

Management analyzes if the Company has any variable interests in variable interest entities.  This analysis includes a qualitative review based on an evaluation of the design of the entity, its organizational structure, including decision making ability and financial agreements, as well as a quantitative review.  Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require a reporting entity to consolidate a VIE when the reporting entity has a variable interest that provides it with a controlling financial interest in the VIE.  The entity that consolidates a VIE is referred to as the primary beneficiary of the VIE.

Use of estimates
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Actual results may differ from those estimates.
 
Accounts receivable

Accounts receivable are from the sale of high quality fiber optic custom cable and the cable pulling services provided to customers.  The Company provides an allowance for doubtful accounts based upon potential unrecoverable uninsured balances.  The allowance for doubtful accounts is increased monthly based upon historical collection information.  Accounts receivable are due 30 days after issuance of the invoice.  Accounts receivable past due more than 60 days are subjected to a collection process and considered for write-off based on individual credit evaluation and specific circumstances of the customer.

Revenue recognition
 
Four basic criteria must be met before revenue can be recognized: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (2) delivery has occurred or services rendered; (3) the fee is fixed and determinable; and (4) collectability is reasonably assured. The Company recognizes revenue from product sales after purchase orders are received which contain a fixed price and the products are shipped. Most of the Company’s products are sold to continuing customers with established credit histories.  Revenue is recognized under the accrual method, when goods are shipped (FOB-shipping point).

Note 1 – Business activities and summary of significant accounting policies (concluded)

Cash and cash equivalents
 
The Company considers all highly-liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.  At December 31, 2010, cash equivalents consist principally of investments in money market funds.

Inventories
 
Inventories, consisting of raw materials, are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost has been determined using the weighted average cost method. The Company reserves for obsolete inventory based upon their specific identification of inventory items. Inventories consist of raw materials as of December 31, 2010.  The Company does not have a reserve against inventory at December 31, 2010.
 
Property and equipment
 
The Company’s building is recorded at cost and depreciated over its estimated useful life (39 years) using the straight-line method.  Equipment, tooling and furniture are recorded at cost and depreciated over their estimated useful lives (generally 3 to 5 years) using the straight-line method. Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are charged to operations in the period incurred.

Other assets

Represents deferred financing costs of $85,700 incurred by the Company related to the financing of its building acquisition. Such costs are amortized over the term of the related debt or 20 years.  Amortization expense totaled $4,285 during the year ended December 31, 2010.

Long-lived assets
 
The Company assesses potential impairments to its long-lived assets when there is evidence that events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recovered. An impairment loss is recognized when the undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by an asset (or group of assets) is less than its carrying amount. Any required impairment loss is measured as the amount by which the asset’s carrying value exceeds its fair value, and is recorded as a reduction in the carrying value of the related asset and a charge to operations.  Management believes that the carrying values and useful lives continue to be appropriate.
 
Income taxes
 
The Company has elected, and the stockholder has consented, under the applicable provisions of the Internal Revenue and New York State Franchise Tax Codes, to have the Company report its income for Federal Corporation and New York State Franchise tax purposes as an “S” Corporation. K&K is a single member LLC and  is treated as a disregarded entity for Federal and state income tax purposes. The stockholder and member report their respective shares of the net taxable income or loss on their personal tax returns. Therefore, no provision is made for Federal Corporation or state level taxes, except for various state level taxes imposed on “S” Corporations, when applicable.

The Company has no unrecognized tax benefits at December 31, 2010. The Company’s U.S. Federal and state income tax returns for periods through 2007 are open and management continually evaluates expiring statutes of limitations, audits, proposed settlements, changes in tax law and new authoritative rulings. The Company accounts for potential interest and penalties on tax matters as a component of the income tax provision.

Note 2 – Concentration of credit risks
 
Credit risk:
Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable.

 
8

 

The Company maintains its cash and cash equivalents with high-credit quality financial institutions. At December 31, 2010, the Company had cash and cash equivalent balances in excess of Federally insured limits in the amount of approximately $117,000.
 
Customer concentration:
Accounts receivable are financial instruments that also expose the Company to concentration of credit risk. Such exposure is limited by the large number of customers comprising the Company’s customer base and their dispersion across different geographic areas. In addition, the Company routinely assesses the financial strength of its customers and maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts that management believes will adequately provide for credit losses.
 
Sales to one customer represented 11% of total sales and 1% of total accounts receivable in 2010. The Company has a standard written distributor agreement with this customer and, therefore, this customer does not have any minimum purchase obligations and could stop buying the Company’s products at any time. A reduction, delay or cancellation of orders from this customer or the loss of this customer could significantly reduce the Company’s revenues and profits.
 
Supplier concentration:
Purchases of connector products from two major vendors represented 13% and 11% of total inventory purchases in 2010. The Company has arrangements with these vendors to purchase product based on purchase orders periodically issued by the Company.

Note 3 – Variable interest entity

K&K was formed on August 14, 2009 for the purpose of establishing a separation of legal ownership of the building where the Company conducts its operations.  The Company’s sole stockholder is the sole member of K&K. The Company was deemed the primary beneficiary of K&K even though it has no direct ownership in K&K as it has the power to direct the activities of K&K that most significantly impacts its economic performance and provides significant financial support through a lease agreement between the Company and K&K and a guarantee of K&K’s mortgage note payable to Teacher’s Federal Credit Union (“TFCU”) (see Note 5).

As of December 31, 2010 and for the year then ended, K&K had assets of $1,620,541 ($38,401 in cash, $1,500,725 in land and building, net and $81,415 in other assets), liabilities of $1,425,286, revenues of $145,000 and expenses of $150,488.  Included in total consolidated assets are assets totaling $1,539,126 that represent collateral for these obligations.

Note 4 – Line of credit

The Company has a $500,000 line of credit agreement with a bank available for working capital loans, letters of credit and acceptances.  At December 31, 2010, the Company had no outstanding borrowings on the facility.

Borrowings under this credit facility are subject to the requirement that for thirty (30) consecutive days prior to the line’s expiration, there shall be no loans, letters of credit or acceptances outstanding.  Interest is payable at a rate equal to 0.5% above the LIBOR rate.  Borrowings are collateralized by substantially all of the Company’s assets.  This line expires on June 1, 2012 but was terminated by the Company in June 2011.

Note 5 – Long-term debt

In June 2010, Cables Unlimited entered into a promissory note with Capital One, N.A.  (“CAP ONE”) in the amount of $75,000. The note bears interest at a rate per annum of 5.5% with minimum monthly payments due of principal and interest of $3,310 commencing July 1, 2010 through June 2012. Cables Unlimited granted CAP ONE a security interest in substantially all of the assets of Cables Unlimited as security for its obligations under the promissory note.

In January 2010, K&K acquired land and a building for $1,525,000.  The purchase was financed through mortgage notes payable as follow:
