Stock Exchange Agreement

On October 11, 2007, Location Based Technologies, Corp. effected a stock exchange agreement and plan of reorganization (the “Agreement”) with Springbank Resources, Inc. (“SRI”) whereby SRI acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of Location Based Technologies, Corp. in exchange for shares of SRI’s common stock.

Subject to the terms and conditions of the Agreement, SRI issued, and the stockholders of Location Based Technologies, Corp. accepted 55,153,500 shares of SRI’s common stock in consideration for all of the issued and outstanding shares of Location Based Technologies, Corp. The shares of SRI’s common stock were allocated to the shareholders of Location Based Technologies, Corp. in accordance with the Agreement.

The former shareholders of Location Based Technologies, Corp. acquired control of SRI upon the closing of the stock exchange transaction. The exchange was accounted for as a reverse acquisition. Accordingly, for financial statement purposes, Location Based Technologies, Corp. was considered the accounting acquiror, and the related business combination was considered a recapitalization of Location Based Technologies, Corp. rather than an acquisition by SRI. The historical financial statements prior to the Agreement are those of Location Based Technologies, Corp., and the name of the company was changed to Location Based Technologies, Inc.

Consolidation Policy

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts and operations of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, Location Based Technologies, Ltd. Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Stock Split

All share and per-share amounts in the accompanying financial statements, unless otherwise indicated, have been retroactively restated to reflect a 3 for 1 stock split approved by the Board in October 2008, as if the split had been in effect since inception.

1.             NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
 
Basis of Presentation

The unaudited consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. They do not include all information and notes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. However, except as disclosed herein, there has been no material changes in the information disclosed in the notes to financial statements included in the annual report on Form 10-K of Location Based Technologies, Inc. for the year ended August 31, 2011. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (including normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three months ended November 30, 2011, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any other interim period or the entire year. For further information, these unaudited consolidated financial statements and the related notes should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements for the year ended August 31, 2011, included in the Company’s report on Form 10-K.

Going Concern

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern. The Company has incurred net losses since inception, and as of November 30, 2011, had an accumulated deficit of $39,022,363. These conditions raise substantial doubt as to the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts, or amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
 
Management recognizes that the Company must generate additional resources and/or revenue to enable it to continue operations. Management may need to raise additional financing through debt and equity financing or through other means that it deems necessary, with a view to moving forward and sustaining prolonged growth in its strategy phases. However, no assurance can be given that the Company will be successful in raising additional capital or generating revenue. Further, even if the Company raises additional capital and/or generates additional revenue, there can be no assurance that the Company will achieve profitability or positive cash flow. If management is unable to raise additional capital and expected significant revenues do not result in positive cash flow, the Company will not be able to meet its obligations and may have to cease operations.

1.             NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

Use of Estimates

 
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported periods. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates.

Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications have been made to prior period amounts or balances to conform to the presentation adopted in the current period.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

For purposes of the balance sheets and statements of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Concentration of Credit Risk

Cash and Cash Equivalents – The cash and cash equivalent balances at November 30, 2011 and 2010 were principally held by two institutions which insured our aggregated accounts with the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") up to $250,000 per insured banking institution. At times, the Company has maintained bank balances which have exceeded FDIC limits. The Company has not experienced any losses with respect to its cash balances.

Revenue and Accounts Receivable For the three months ended November 30, 2011, revenue from one of the Company’s customers amounted for $39,941 or 90.5% of total net revenue. Accounts receivable from this customer amounted to $430,121 or 99.8% of total accounts receivable.

1.             NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
 
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

The allowance for doubtful accounts on accounts receivable is charged to operations in amounts sufficient to maintain the allowance for uncollectible accounts at a level management believes is adequate to cover any probable losses. Management determines the adequacy of the allowance based on historical write-off percentages and the current status of accounts receivable. Accounts receivable are charged off against the allowance when collectability is determined to be permanently impaired. As of November 30, 2011 and 2010, the allowance for doubtful accounts amounted to $304,597.
 
Inventory
 
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or market and primarily consisted of packaging supplies, components and finished goods at November 30, 2011.

Net losses on firm purchase commitments for inventory are recognized in accordance with FASB ASC 330 – Inventory, whereby losses arising from firm, uncancelable and unhedged commitments for the future purchase of inventory items are recognized in the current period. For the year ended August 31, 2011, the Company recognized losses and a related liability from inventory purchase commitments totaling $685,500. As of November 30, 2011, the liability from inventory purchase commitments totaled $652,596.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Pursuant to FASB ASC 820 – Fair Value Measurement and Disclosures, the Company is required to estimate the fair value of all financial instruments included on its balance sheet. The carrying value of cash, accounts receivable, inventory, accounts payable and notes payable approximate their fair value due to the short period to maturity of these instruments.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization are calculated using the straight-line method and with useful lives used in computing depreciation ranging from 1 to 5 years. When property and equipment are retired or otherwise disposed of, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the respective accounts, and any gain or loss is included in operations. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred; additions, renewals and betterments are capitalized.

Internal Website Development Costs

Under FASB ASC 350-50 – Intangibles – Goodwill and Other – Website Development Costs, costs and expenses incurred during the planning and operating stages of the Company's web site development are expensed as incurred. Costs incurred in the web site application and infrastructure development stages are capitalized by the Company and amortized to expense over the web site's estimated useful life or period of benefit. As of November 30, 2011 and August 31, 2011, the Company capitalized costs totaling $1,361,959 related to its website development. 

Long-Lived Assets

The Company accounts for its long-lived assets in accordance with FASB ASC 360 – Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets that requires long-lived assets be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the historical cost carrying value of an asset may no longer be appropriate. The Company assesses recoverability of the carrying value of an asset by estimating the future net cash flows expected to result from the asset, including eventual disposition. If the future net cash flows are less than the carrying value of the asset, an impairment loss is recorded equal to the difference between the asset's carrying value and fair value or disposable value. During the year ended August 31, 2010, due to uncertainties related to the recovery of its investment in the PocketFinder® website as a result of generally poor economic conditions and the Company’s history of difficulties in obtaining financing for product launch, the Company recorded a full impairment of its Website Development Costs totaling $1,361,959.

Intangible Assets – Patents and Trademarks

The Company capitalizes internally developed assets related to certain costs associated with patents and trademarks. These costs include legal and registration fees needed to apply for and secure patents. The intangible assets acquired from other enterprises or individuals in an “arms length” transaction are recorded at cost. As of November 30, 2011 and August 31, 2011, the Company capitalized $1,190,343 and $1,184,968, respectively, for patent related expenditures. As of November 30, 2011 and August 31, 2011, the Company capitalized $59,470 for trademark related expenditures.

Earnings/ Loss Per Share

The Company computes basic earnings (loss) per share using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period in accordance with FASB ASC 260 – Earnings Per Share, which specifies the compilation, presentation, and disclosure requirements for income per share for entities with publicly held common stock or instruments which are potentially common stock.

Diluted earnings (loss) per share are computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and the dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period. Dilutive potential common shares primarily consist of stock options and warrants issued by the Company. These potential common shares are excluded from diluted loss per share as their effect would be anti-dilutive.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2010-28, Intangibles — Goodwill and Other, which amends Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 350, Intangibles — Goodwill and Other. ASU 2010-28 modifies Step 1 of the goodwill impairment test for reporting units with zero or negative carrying amounts. For those reporting units, an entity is required to perform Step 2 of the goodwill impairment analysis if it is more likely than not that a goodwill impairment exists based on a qualitative assessment of adverse factors. The Company does not expect the provisions of ASU 2010-28 to have a material impact to the consolidated financial statements.

In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-04, Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs, which amends ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement. The purpose of ASU 2011-04 is to clarify the intent about the application of existing fair value measurement and disclosure requirements and to change a particular principle or requirement for measuring fair value or for disclosing information about fair value measurements. The Company does not expect the provisions of ASU 2011-04 to have a material impact to its consolidated financial statements.

In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-05, Presentation of Comprehensive Income, which amends ASC Topic 220, Comprehensive Income. The objective of ASU 2011-05 is to improve the comparability, consistency and transparency of financial reporting and to increase the prominence of items reported in other comprehensive income. The update will require entities to present items of net income, items of other comprehensive income and total comprehensive income in one continuous statement or two separate consecutive statements, and entities will no longer be allowed to present items of other comprehensive income in the statement of stockholders’ equity. Reclassification adjustments between other comprehensive income and net income will be presented separately on the face of the financial statements. The Company does not expect the provisions of ASU 2011-05 to have a material impact to its consolidated financial statements.

In August 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-08, Intangibles — Goodwill and Other, which amends ASC Topic 350, Intangibles — Goodwill and Other. The purpose of ASU 2011-08 is to simplify how an entity tests goodwill for impairment. Entities will assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that a reporting unit’s fair value is less than its carrying value. In instances where the fair value is determined to be less than the carrying value, entities will perform the two-step quantitative goodwill impairment test. The Company does not expect the provisions of ASU 2011-08 to have a material impact to its consolidated financial statements.

Contingencies

In 2007, the Company sold convertible notes to accredited investors in reliance on an exemption from registration provided by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act and similar state exemptions. Management has been advised by counsel that the availability of those exemptions cannot be determined with legal certainty due to the fact that the Company or its predecessors may not have complied with all of the provisions of exemption safe-harbors for such sales offered by rules promulgated under the Securities Act by the SEC. Thus, it is possible that a right of rescission may exist for shares underlying the convertible notes for which the statute of limitations has not run. From November 2007 through December 2007, all of the convertible notes payable totaling $5,242,000 were converted into 15,726,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, and subsequently, some of the shares were sold in the open market. Management has performed an analysis under FAS 5, Accounting for Contingencies, and concluded that the likelihood of a right of rescission being successfully enforced on the remaining convertible note shares is remote, and consequently, has accounted for these shares in permanent equity in the financial statements.

On April 5, 2011, Gemini Master Fund, Ltd., filed a complaint for breach of contract against Location Based Technologies for non-payment of outstanding loans. The complaint specifies damages totaling $858,292, plus pre-judgment interest, costs of suit and other relief. The entire amount of the loans plus accrued interest, which together approximate the specified damages, are included in the accompanying financial statements. On June 8, 2011, the Location Based Technologies filed a Cross-Complaint against Gemini Master Fund, Ltd. for monetary damages related to the creditor’s disposition of common shares of Location Based Technologies which had been pledged as collateral for the notes.

In addition, the Company’s articles of incorporation were amended to increase its authorized shares in an amount that corresponds to the stock split, thereby increasing the authorized shares of common stock from 100,000,000 to 300,000,000. Unless otherwise indicated, all share and per-share amounts in these financial statements have been retroactively restated to reflect the 3 for 1 stock split as if the split had been in effect since inception.

10.           PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES

Deferred income taxes are reported using the liability method. Deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences arise from the difference between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax basis. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and tax rates on the date of enactment.

The Company did not provide any current or deferred U.S. federal income taxes or benefits for any of the periods presented because the Company has experienced operating losses since inception. The Company provided a full valuation allowance on the net deferred tax asset, consisting of net operating loss carry forwards, because management has determined that it is more likely than not that we will not earn sufficient income to realize the deferred tax assets during the carry forward period.

The components of the Company’s deferred tax asset as of November 30, 2011, are as follows:
 
Net operating loss carry forward and deductible temporary differences
  $ 11,416,000  
Valuation allowance     (11,416,000 )
         
Net deferred tax asset
  $ -  

A reconciliation of the combined federal and state statutory income taxes rate and the effective rate is as follows:  
 
Federal tax at statutory rate   $ 34.00 %
State income tax net of federal benefit      5.83 %
Valuation allowance
    (39.83 %)
         
    $ -  

The Company’s valuation allowance increased by $264,000 for the three months ended November 30, 2011.

10.           PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES (Continued)

As of November 30, 2011, the Company had federal and state net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $28,663,000 which can be used to offset future federal income tax. The federal and state net operating loss carryforwards expire at various dates through 2031.  Deferred tax assets resulting from the net operating losses are reduced by a valuation allowance, when, in the opinion of management, utilization is not reasonably assured. These carryforwards may be limited upon a change in ownership or consummation of a business combination under IRC Sections 381 and 382.

As of November 30, 2011 and August 31, 2011, no accrued interest and penalties are recorded relating to uncertain tax positions. Any such interest and penalties would be included in interest expense as a component of pre-tax net income or loss. The Company's tax filings are no longer open to examination by the Internal Revenue Service for tax years prior to 2007, and by state taxing authorities for tax years prior to 2006.

Overview.  We were incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada in April 2006 as Springbank Resources, Inc. (“SRI”).  SRI was formed to engage in the exploration and development of oil and gas, and by 2007 had disposed of all of its assets and satisfied its liabilities.  In October 2007, SRI acquired all of the outstanding stock of Location Based Technologies, Corp. (“Old LBT”), following which SRI merged Old LBT into itself and, in the process, SRI’s name was changed to Location Based Technologies, Inc.  Old LBT was incorporated in September 2005 by David Morse, Joseph Scalisi and Desiree Mejia, who became our officers and directors, in order to develop the PocketFinder personal locators.
 
Our principal executive offices are located at 49 Discovery, Suite 260, Irvine, California 92618, and our telephone number is 888-600-1044.
 
Our shares of common stock are currently traded in the over-the-counter market and our stock price is reported on the OTC Bulletin Board under the symbol “LBAS.”

Unless otherwise stated, all references to “we,” “us,” “our,” the “company” and similar designations refer to Location Based Technologies, Inc.
 
Location Based Technologies®, PocketFinder® and PocketFinder Pets® are registered trademarks, and PocketFinder Network™, PocketFinder People™, PocketFinder Vehicle™, PocketFinder Luggage™, PocketFinder Mobile™ and VehicleFleetFinder™ are trademarks, of the company.  With respect to this report, we reserve all rights to the foregoing trademarks regardless of whether they carry the “®” or “™” designation.
 
Our Business.  We design, develop, and sell leading-edge personal locator devices and services. Our devices utilize Global Positioning System (“GPS”) and General Packet Radio Service (“GPRS”) technologies in conjunction with our patented, proprietary hardware and software to allow users to locate their devices in real time.  Our flagship product, the PocketFinder, is a small, completely wireless, location device that enables users to locate a person, pet, vehicle or other valuable item at any time from almost anywhere.  The device location can be obtained by logging on to our website (www.pocketfinder.com) or by using the PocketFinder iPhone, iPod touch, or iPad App.  Customers may also access the website from their Android, Windows Mobile, or BlackBerry smartphones. The PocketFinder can also push near real time location information to users via email or SMS Text Message.

In addition to the PocketFinder, we also developed several other related products which include: PocketFinder People, PocketFinder Pets, PocketFinder Vehicles, PocketFinder Mobile, PocketFinder XL and VehicleFleetFinder devices.  These products are all based on the PocketFinder technology and will be utilized to serve strategic vertical markets.  Over the course of the last several months it has become clear to us that our business will include both consumer and commercial applications for our products.  It has also become clear that the opportunity in the commercial market segment is at least as robust as the opportunity in the consumer market segment.

Sales of both the PocketFinder Vehicle device and the PocketFinder device through the Online Apple Store began in the middle of October 2011 with the sales in Apple Retail Stores beginning incrementally throughout the months of October and November 2011.  Devices are now available for purchase throughout the U.S. and Canada exclusively at Apple Retail Stores, the Online Apple Store and will soon be available for purchase through our own website.  Although it is very early in our initial sales cycle, we have seen a steady increase in the number of device activations week over week during the last six weeks of 2011.
 
Recently developed and released new feature rich Apps for the iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad, to which customer response has been overwhelmingly positive.  These Apps allow users to maximize the functionality and benefits of their various PocketFinder devices.  The new iPhone and the native iPad Apps are free downloads and available through the iTunes Store.  They deliver the ability to set up and manage PocketFinder devices while the user is on the go throughout the day or night and from virtually anywhere in the world that the user’s phone has connectivity.  Android, BlackBerry, and Windows Mobile Professional 6.0 Operating Systems are able to access the existing www.pocketfinder.com website to manage and set up accounts.  We plan to continue to update our SmartPhone Apps that turn a GPS enabled SmartPhone into a “PocketFinder” like device so that its location is visible to other members in a user’s account without the necessity of buying additional PocketFinder devices.  These GPS mobile applications interact with our easy to use web-based interface from any telecom GSM or Code Division Multiple Access (“CDMA”) network.
 
In response to specific customer demand for a small location device that delivered as much as 30 days of battery life for asset tracking and, more specifically, the shipping of high value parts and/or products, we developed PocketFinder XL, an extended battery life product.  We are currently testing the pilot run of PocketFinder XL units.  Once we are satisfied with their performance quality, we will deliver the beta units to select companies and governmental organizations for review and testing in order to generate purchase orders. We anticipate delivering the devices to our potential customers in 2012.
 
Through our Professional Services Agreement with Loadrack.com, LLC, we developed a robust User Interface designed for the trucking and freight monitoring industry.  We assisted LoadRack.com in building a dynamic, near real time, Internet-based system that will increase the efficiency of moving produce and refrigerated items, ensure the safety of temperature controlled foods during transport, and increase on-time deliveries of foods and perishable products.  LoadRackTracker (“LRT”) is positioning to be the premier provider of truck and load matching with this industry first near real time asset tracking application.  Their advanced application allows shippers, carriers, and truck brokers to optimize resources and coordination by procuring available trucks and loads while ensuring load integrity across the supply chain.  Accessed via the Internet, the system allows users to determine load location and status, view zones, monitor load temperatures, facilitate route changes, and effectively manage equipment problems and delays.  This opportunity represents a way to leverage a vast vertical market by applying the company’s cutting edge PocketFinder Network with its smartphone and hardware applications to enhance the way commerce is moved, contain costs, and facilitate the delivery of goods to stores cheaper, better and faster throughout the United States.
 
We have begun to sell devices to LRT and anticipate increased sales in 2012.  We plan to work closely with LRT to grow their customer base which will also allow both companies to achieve significant cash flow benefits.  . 
 
Our associated VehicleFleetFinder devices use similar advanced technology to help businesses optimize their mobile resources (vehicles, equipment, sales forces, etc.) by providing location, direction, speed and other information that enables enhanced coordination and leveraging of assets. For businesses that employ this technology they will be able to know “where” key resources (people or assets) are located at a glance so that they will then be able to answer a customer’s question of “when.”

In some measure, due to the dramatic downturn in the economy, we see evidence of market demand for location-based services that allow business that are seeking tighter cost controls to better manage key assets and families, who are more mobile than ever, access to a solution that helps them to keep in touch with one another in an increasingly busy and highly mobile world.  In July 2010, Frost & Sullivan projected growth of location based services (“LBS”) for wireless carriers to be $1.58 billion in 2015.  In their study they stated, “In tandem with smartphone advances, carriers are making their networks and locating capability more accessible to LBS application developers.”  We are well positioned for this movement and working closely to utilize carrier based location information to enhance the in-door performance of the PocketFinder family of products.

Strategy Analytic’s Nitesh Patel released the “The $10 B Rule: Location, Location, Location” study in May 2011.  Mr. Patel believes that the evolution of location based services has momentum of its own sufficient to further evolve and develop the market to a point where it is projected to be valued at $10B by 2016.  He further states that “Consumers are increasingly demanding services such as search, maps, or navigation, for which location information is either fundamental to or provides greater context, utility and therefore appeal.”

We are aggressively moving the PocketFinder family of products web-based features and functionality onto more functional mobile platforms to better meet the needs of our highly mobile society.  We are seeing similar demands and requirements in families and in businesses.  By taking advantage of the latest in GPS, GSM, and Internet technology, small and medium sized businesses will be able to more effectively and efficiently manage their mobile assets and key human resources as well as to carefully monitor the shipping and delivery of high value assets.  Although we are only selling devices in the US and Canada, we find that many people have purchased our devices while visiting the US and then returned home to activate.  Global usage now comprises much of Europe, Russia, Romania, Ukraine, Mexico, China, Hong Kong, Australia, many countries in South America, and more are added each week.
  
In addition, vertical applications we receive customer feedback from include: outdoor enthusiasts, adult children of the elderly, elder care providers of patients with Alzheimer’s and dementia, special needs providers for those with disabilities, pet owners, and for the tracking and recovery of valuable property and luggage while traveling.  Our device is only fifty millimeters in diameter (about 2 inches).  It fits easily into a child’s pocket, into a backpack, or onto a belt.  The PocketFinder People and PocketFinder Pets devices will come with a form-fitting silicone pouch that can easily slide onto a belt or a pet’s collar.
 
We continue to tightly control our overhead and ensure that we have the right resources in place at the right time.   We have a very talented senior management team that brings the right knowledge, skills and abilities to deliver world-class products and services.  Distribution opportunities are being negotiated as we carefully analyze each market opportunity against the cost of entry, potential growth, economic value, and support capability metrics.   We are developing a business model for international market opportunities and are in discussions with wireless carriers and/or distributors in multiple countries at this time.  Key personnel have been brought in as independent contractors to supplement our existing team with customer, sales and business development skills.
 
Our Personal Locator Services.

Our Intellectual Property Investment.  We continue to invest in intellectual property that consists of apparatus patents and applications and system and method patents and applications.  We have filed claims that cover many aspects of the PocketFinder, its operating system and user interface.  We have expanded and filed additional claims this fiscal year that cover new aspects of the PocketFinder People device, its operating system and user interface.  Our intellectual property portfolio includes 28 issued US patents, 10 pending US patents, 7 pending foreign patents, 6 PCT filings, 17 registered trademarks and 4 Madrid protocol trademark cases.

We own the Internet domain name www.pocketfinder.com as well as the names of numerous other related domains that could have use in future business and vertical marketing initiatives and for Internet marketing purposes.  Under current domain name registration practices, no one else can obtain an identical domain name, but someone might obtain a similar name, or the identical name with a different suffix, such as “.org,” or with a country designation.  The regulation of domain names in the United States and in foreign countries is subject to change, and we could be unable to prevent third parties from acquiring domain names that infringe or otherwise decrease the value of our domain names.

Our Target Markets and Marketing Strategy.  We provide wireless location based solutions for global positioning products and with its proprietary “friendly user interface” software system.  Our PocketFinder family of products delivers rugged, compact products with near real time location-based information over its proprietary server architecture.  Our products optimize the way families stay connected with one another, for pet owners to know where their pets are on demand, and provide solutions for asset tracking – such as shipping of high value assets or LoadRackTracker’s trucking solution for controlled temperature environments.  We have the ability to provide platform support for the integration of other location-based GPS services within our applications in order to simplify the customers need to manage all location-based devices in one easy tool.
 
We recently launched the PocketFinder and PocketFinder Vehicle in the United States and in Canada through the Apple Online Store and Apple Retail Stores. We anticipate that PocketFinder Pets will be available for purchase on our website sometime in the first quarter of 2012. We are also working on several “white label” marketing opportunities.  In addition, licensing opportunities are being explored on the international front.
 
Our marketing initiatives will include:

 
Licensing opportunities for the products in international areas or regions;
 
Self-branded or “white label” opportunities for niche market or vertical market sales;
 
Affinity group marketing and outreach opportunities;
 
Utilization of direct response sales due to public relations outreach in special interest magazines and newsletters; and
 
Retail distribution initiatives.

Our Revenue Sources.  We expect our revenues to be derived from the following sources:
 
 
Potential licensing fees;
 
Organizations that will self-brand the PocketFinder for specialized niche markets (“white label”);
 
Personal Locator device sales to retailers;
 
Personal Locator device sales through affinity groups and through our website;
 
Personal Locator device accessory sales; and
 
Monthly recurring service fees.
 
Our Growth Strategy.  Our objective is to become a premier provider of personal and asset location services in the Location Based Services market.  Our strategy is to provide high quality devices that meet the market’s requirements whether it is for their children, their pets, or asset tracking (luggage, vehicles, boats, etc.).  Key elements of our strategy include:
 
 
A mass market retail price of under $150.00 for Personal Location devices (customized trucking solutions with additional features and capabilities will be sold at a higher cost);
 
A basic monthly service fee in the U.S. for Personal Locator devices of $12.95 with multiple convenient access points (Smartphone and/or via the Internet);
 
Ease of use at the location interface point as well as with the device; and
 
Rugged design that meets the rigors of an active child or pet.
 
 
37

 
 
Our Competition.  Personal location and property tracking devices are beginning to significantly penetrate the marketplace.  We believe this condition represents a tremendous opportunity as customers will be attracted in large numbers once the intrinsic value of such devices is recognized and mass market adoption begins.
 
Our competitors include, but are not limited to: Geospatial Platform Providers, Application Developers, Zoombak, Garmin’s GTU-10, Qualcomm’s Tagg, Lo-Jack, and SpotLight.  These competitors may be better financed, or have greater marketing and scientific resources than we do.
 
In related markets, GPS devices have become widely used for automotive and marine applications where line-of-sight to GPS satellites is not a significant issue.  Manufacturers such as Garmin, Navman, Magellan, TomTom, Pharos, NovAtel and DeLorne are finding a market interested in using these products for both business and leisure purposes.  As a result, use of GPS technology in devices such as chart plotters, fitness and training devices, fish finders, laptop computers, and personal digital assistant (“PDA”) location devices are gaining significant market acceptance and commercialization.  Prices range from $100.00 to several thousand dollars.  We expect that increasing consumer demand in these markets will drive additional applications and lower price points.
 
Government Regulation.  We are subject to federal, state and local laws and regulations applied to businesses generally as well as Federal Communications Commission, Internationale Canada (“IC”) and CE (European Economic Area) wireless device regulations and controls.  We believe that we are in conformity with all applicable laws in all relevant jurisdictions.  We are currently seeking NOM and NYCE certifications in order to begin sales in Mexico.  We do not believe that we are subject to any environmental laws and regulations of the United States and the states in which we operate.
 
Our Research and Development.  As cash becomes available we will continue to invest in ongoing research and development to enhance the size and performance of our existing products as well as to customize products to better fit specific vertical market needs and requirements.  We will continue to work with our manufacturer and several other entities that are conducting research on key aspects of the device itself (including expanded antennae capability, battery capacity, Iridium Satellite connectivity, and enhanced location reliability and accuracy) in an ongoing effort to provide the best quality product at the very best size and value in the market.  We anticipate ongoing involvement with some level of developmental activity throughout the foreseeable future.
  
Employees and Outsourced Assistance.  We have limited our use of contracted professionals who have been engaged in hardware and software development, early marketing and sales preparation, and preparation for customer service support.  Mr. Scalisi, our Co-President and Chief Development Officer, Mr. Morse, our Co-President and Chief Executive Officer, and Mrs. Mejia, our Chief Operating Officer, and Mr. Gregory Gaines, our Chief Marketing and Sales Officer, currently devote 100% of their business time to our operations.  In addition to our new Board members, we have added several key contractors with customer service, business development, and sales leadership experience.  Remaining true to our “outsourced” model for growth and expansion, any large personnel increase will be accomplished through sales and customer support outsourced organizations contracted to provide respective services.  The company will remain focused on our core competency of providing location devices and services.

Our Website.  Our corporate website, www.locationbasedtech.com, provides a description of our corporate business along with our contact information including address, telephone number and e-mail address.  Our website also provides prospective customers with relevant information about our products, pricing and payment options, pre-ordering capability, frequently asked questions and access to corporate investor relations information.  Information contained on our website is not a part of this report.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 
For the three months ended November 30, 2011 as compared to the three months ended November 30, 2010.
 
Revenue.  For the three months ended November 30, 2011, we generated $44,116 of net revenue as compared to $1,972 of net revenue for the three months ended November 30, 2010.  Net revenue for the three months ended November 30, 2011, consisted of $32,899 from the sales of PocketFinder People devices, $8,952 from the sales of PocketFinder Vehicle devices and $2,225 from monthly subscription service income.  

Cost of Revenue.  For the three months ended November 30, 2011, cost of revenue totaled $254,727 resulting in a negative gross margin as compared to $4,806 for the three months ended November 30, 2010.  The cost of revenue was significantly higher than net revenue during the three months ended November 30, 2011, as we incurred labor and cost overages to accelerate our initial production run to meet our distributor delivery deadlines.  In addition, certain fixed overhead charges contributed to the negative gross margin.

Operating Expenses.  For the three months ended November 30, 2011, our total operating expenses were $1,723,763 as compared to total operating expenses of $451,491 for the three months ended November 30, 2010.  Operating expenses increased by $1,272,272 or 282% in 2011 from 2010.  The increase in operating expenses is primarily attributed to the following:

 
·
A $345,214 increase in general and administrative expenses to $448,514 for the three months ended November 30, 2011, as compared to $103,300 for the three months ended November 30, 2010.  The increase in general and administrative expenses in 2011 as compared to 2010 is due to the following:

 
o
Increase in advertising fees to market our products;
 
o
Increase in insurance costs as a result of increasing our product liability coverage;
 
o
Increase in computer expenses related to our website and development of the PocketFinder apps;
 
o
Recognition of board of directors fees upon the establishment of the board in October 2011.

 
·
A $640,686 increase in professional fees to $764,747 for the three months ended November 30, 2011, as compared to $124,061 for the three months ended November 30, 2010.  The increase in professional fees is primarily attributed to a significant increase in legal fees to prepare the filing of our registration statement on Form S-1.  In addition, professional fees increased due to the addition of seven consultants specializing in sales and marketing, business development, financial services, technology, and customer service.  Professional fees totaling $158,500 accrued at November 30, 2011were settled with the issuance of common stock in December 2011;

 
·
A $309,973 increase in research and development costs to $356,299 for the three months ended November 30, 2011, as compared to $46,326 for the three months ended November 30, 2010, as we increased R&D activities related to our PocketFinder XL device; and

 
·
The increases above were offset by a $23,601 decrease in rent to $19,203 for the three months ended November 30, 2011, as compared to $46,326 for the three months ended November 30, 2010, due to moving to smaller office space in Irvine.

Other Expenses.  For the three months ended November 30, 2011, we reported other expenses consisting of net interest expense, financing costs, amortization of deferred financing costs and foreign currency gains totaling $35,559 as compared to $421,112 for the three months ended November 30, 2010.  The decrease in other expenses is due to a reduction in interest expense as a majority of our convertibles notes payable were converted in July and August 2011.  In addition, there was a significant reduction in finder’s fees and financing activities following the private placement in July 2011.

Net Loss.  For the three months ended November 30, 2011, we reported a net loss of $1,970,733 as compared to a net loss of $876,237 for the three months ended November 30, 2010, primarily due to increases in operating and other expenses as previously discussed.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

We had cash and cash equivalents of $920,168 as of November 30, 2011, as compared to $3,619,576 as of August 31, 2010.  The decrease in cash as of November 30, 2011, as compared to August 31, 2011 is attributed to the purchase of device components and the production of PocketFinder devices.

Inventory totaled $5,007,508 as of November 30, 2011, as compared to $24,809 as of August 31, 2011 and consisted of $81,894 of packaging supplies, $2,308,786 of device components and $2,616,828 of finished goods.

Prepaid expenses totaled $85,486 as of November 30, 2011, as compared to $1,502,838 as of August 31, 2011 and primarily consisted of prepaid insurance and commissions.  The decrease in prepaid expenses as of November 30, 2011 from August 31, 2011 is the result of recognizing approximately $1.4 million in prepaid manufacturing costs at August 31, 2011; whereby, there were no such costs at November 30, 2011.

Manufacturing deposits totaled $51,570 as of November 30, 2011, as compared to $2,800,000 as of August 31, 2011.  The decrease is the result of using deposits to purchase inventory components and manufacture PocketFinder devices from August 31, 2011 to November 30, 2011.

As of November 30, 2011, the total of our property and equipment, less accumulated depreciation, was a net value of $368,369, compared to the net value of $191,855 for our property and equipment, less accumulated depreciation, as of August 31, 2011.  The increase is primarily due to the development of more robust PocketFinder apps and the purchase of tooling and equipment for device production.
 
Other assets, consisted of patents and trademarks, net of amortization, and deposits.  Deposits consisted of the security deposit for our office lease and amounted to $30,000 as of November 30, 2011 and August 31, 2011.  Patents and trademarks, net of amortization, amounted to $1,228,846 as of November 30, 2011, as compared to $1,231,084 as of August 31, 2011.  We periodically assess our patents and intellectual property for impairment and none has been recorded to date.
 
Our total assets as of November 30, 2011, were $8,123,112 as compared to our total assets as of August 31, 2011, which were $9,400,162.  The decrease in our total assets between the two periods was primarily due to a decrease in cash that was offset by an increase in inventory as previously discussed.
 
As of November 30, 2011, our accounts payable and accrued expenses were $1,458,796 as compared to $1,329,689 as of August 31, 2011.  
 
As of November 30, 2011, accrued officer compensation was $911,082 as compared to $914,765 as of August 31, 2011.  
 
There were no outstanding advances from officers or related accrued interest as of November 30, 2011, as compared to $9,462 as of August 31, 2011.  Advances from officers and accrued interest at August 31, 2011 were paid off in September 2011.    
 
Convertible notes payable and related accrued interest totaled $919,158 as of November 30, 2011, as compared to $918,534 as of August 31, 2011.  The $750,000 in convertible promissory notes are short term, to be repaid out of future operating cash flow.
The outstanding balance on our line of credit and accrued interest totaled $1,000,000 and $5,417, respectively, as of November 30, 2011.  
 
On January 5, 2011, we entered into a Loan and Security Agreement with Silicon Valley Bank for a $1,000,000 line of credit originally expiring January 5, 2012.  On August 24, 2011, the Loan and Security Agreement was amended by a First Amendment to Loan and Security Agreement to waive existing and pending defaults on loan covenants.  On January 9, 2012, the Company received verbal approval from Silicon Valley Bank that the credit line would be extended for 90 days and due on April 4, 2012.  In addition, all the debt covenants were waived. All other terms and conditions will remain unchanged.  The outstanding balance and accrued interest due on the line of credit totaled $1,005,417 as of November 30, 2011.  Silicon Valley Bank was granted a security interest in all of our personal property.  Prior to its First Amendment, the Loan and Security Agreement contained certain financial covenants including minimum levels of accounts receivable and a specific amount of outside financing to be attained by certain dates.  We did not meet the financial covenants as they came due, but under the First Amendment to Loan and Security Agreement the defaults were waived and the financial covenants were adjusted.

Commitments as of November 30, 2011, amounted to $652,596 as compared to $685,500 as of August 31, 2011, and consisted of the liability on losses from inventory purchase commitments recognized in August 2011.

On December 1, 2010, in anticipation of entering into the Loan and Security Agreement with Silicon Valley Bank and in connection with loans that he had made to us, we entered into a Financing Agreement with Greggory S. Haugen under which, among other things, Mr. Haugen agreed to personally guaranty our obligations under the Loan and Security Agreement with Silicon Valley Bank.  We are obligated to reimburse Mr. Haugen for any amounts, including interest, he pays under the guaranty.  To compensate Mr. Haugen for his guaranty, we issued a warrant to him to purchase 3,600,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $0.20 per share and we agreed to pay him $5,000 per month for so long as he has any obligation under the guaranty or he has not been reimbursed by us for any amounts paid by him under the guaranty.  Currently the $5,000 monthly fee is payable in cash or shares of our common stock at Mr. Haugen’s option.  Under the Financing Agreement, we granted Mr. Haugen board observation rights, certain registration rights, and the right to approve our use of funds drawn under the Loan and Security Agreement.  We also agreed to grant Mr. Haugen a security interest in all of our assets, junior only to the security interest of Silicon Valley Bank.  In the event of an “Actionable Violation,” which is defined to include, among other things, our failure to maintain certain minimum net income levels, our failure to maintain a specified minimum account balance, or our failure to make any payment required under the Financing Agreement or any other agreement between Mr. Haugen and us, Mr. Haugen may, among other things, market our assets (including our intellectual property) and require us to sell such assets (subject to the approval of Silicon Valley Bank) with the proceeds to be applied to all amounts then due to Silicon Valley Bank and thereafter to any amounts due by us to Mr. Haugen under the Financing Agreement or any other agreement or instrument.  In January 2011, we entered into the following agreements with Mr. Haugen: (i) a Security Agreement granting him a security interest in all of our assets to secure the reimbursement obligation under the Financing Agreement and every other debt, liability or obligation that we currently or at any time in the future owe to him and (ii) a related Intellectual Property Security Agreement granting him a security interest in all of our intellectual property.  
 
In 2007, we sold $5,242,000 in convertible notes that were subsequently converted into 5,242,000 shares of common stock.  The notes were sold to accredited investors.  We made these sales in reliance on an exemption from registration provided by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act and similar state exemptions.  Our counsel has advised us that the availability of those exemptions cannot be determined with legal certainty due to the fact that we may not have complied with all of the form filings or other notice filing provisions of safe-harbor exemptions for such sales offered by rules promulgated under the Securities Act by the SEC and applicable state laws.  Thus, it is possible that the sale of the convertible notes may have violated the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state laws.  As to those sales, a right of rescission may exist on which the statute of limitations has not run.  We performed an analysis under FAS 5, Accounting for Contingencies, and concluded that the likelihood of a right of rescission being successfully enforced on the convertible note sales is remote.

CASH REQUIREMENTS
 
We are an early stage wireless technology company focused on the marketing and sales of the PocketFinder family of products for retail distribution.  Since our inception, we have generated significant losses.  As of November 30, 2011, we had an accumulated deficit of $39,022,363 and we expect to incur continual losses until sometime in calendar year 2013.
 
We have a limited history of operations.  To date, we have funded our operations primarily through personal loans by the founders and the private placement of our common stock and convertible notes.
 
As of November 30, 2011, we had $920,168 in cash and cash-equivalents.  Over the next several quarters we expect to invest significant amounts of funds to develop our sales and marketing programs associated with the commercialization and launch of the PocketFinder family of products.  We also expect to fund additional inventory and any necessary general overhead requirements.
 
 
41

 
 
We expect to have to obtain additional financing in the coming months to purchase and maintain inventory and for related purposes such as packaging, shipping, and direct sales and marketing costs.  We are not able to estimate the amount of funds necessary as it will be determined by the volume represented by purchase orders from targeted retailers who desire to sell our product.
 
Our funding requirements will depend on numerous factors, including:
 
 
·
Costs involved in production and manufacturing to fill purchase orders, software and interface customization for OEM partners, and the network necessary to commence the commercialization of the PocketFinder People and PocketFinder Pets devices;
 
·
The costs of outsourced manufacturing;
 
·
The costs of commercialization activities, including product marketing, sales and distribution, and customer service and support; and
 
·
Our revenues, if any, from successful commercialization of the PocketFinder devices and the PocketFinder Network platform services.
 
As noted above, we will need to obtain additional financing during the next three months to finance the inventory necessary to meet current and anticipated demand and to support related marketing, sales, and distribution expenses.  The sale of additional equity securities may result in additional dilution to our stockholders.  Sale of debt securities could involve substantial operational and financial covenants that might inhibit our ability to follow our business plan.  Additional financing may not be available in amounts or on terms acceptable to us or at all.  If we are unable to obtain additional financing, we may be required to reduce the scope of, delay or eliminate some or all of our planned commercialization activities, which could adversely affect our financial conditions and operating results.
 
In order to facilitate the testing of devices as they come off of the production line, we purchased test equipment which enables our manufacturer to determine each device’s fidelity. The test equipment is currently being used at Jabil’s San Jose facility, where the first 50,000 devices are being produced. If we move to another Jabil facility for further production, we might be required to purchase additional test equipment.

Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization are calculated using the straight-line method and with useful lives used in computing depreciation ranging from 1 to 5 years. When property and equipment are retired or otherwise disposed of, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the respective accounts, and any gain or loss is included in operations. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred; additions, renewals and betterments are capitalized.

We currently have five employees and we anticipate adding up to 10 more full time employees within the next 12 months.
 
Product Research and Development
 
We plan to continue to develop new product enhancements to our existing product on the market including PocketFinder People and PocketFinder Vehicles.  We are currently in the final process of testing the PocketFinder XL (“extended life”) devices.
 

Plant and Equipment, Employees
 
We do not plan to purchase or sell any significant equipment, plant or properties during the foreseeable future.  Our business operations are based on a strategic outsourcing model, thereby negating the need for additional plant and equipment, or significant numbers of employees.  Thus, we do not anticipate hiring any significant number of additional employees during the next 12 months but will add a few selected and strategic employees.
 
 
42

 
 
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
 
As of November 30, 2011, we had no off-balance sheet arrangements.

ITEM 4T.  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures  

Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms.  Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by our company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.  Our management carried out an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 ("Exchange Act").  Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of November 30, 2011, due to the material weaknesses resulting from a lack of segregation of duties in our accounting department, and a limited corporate governance structure.
 
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
 
There were no changes in internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the three months ended November 30, 2011, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
 
Gemini Master Fund, Ltd. alleged that we were in default in the payment of the principal and unpaid accrued interest under two senior secured promissory notes in its favor in the original principal amounts of $625,000 and $100,000.  These notes were secured by a pledge of 5,600,000 shares of our common stock personally owned by one of our officers.  On or about February 1, 2010, Gemini seized all of the pledged shares and sold them to itself for a total of $10,000 at what it designated as an auction.  It is our position that, at the time of the purported auction, the shares had a fair market value that exceeded the amount of the claimed obligation.  In April 2011, Gemini filed a complaint against us for breach of contract for non-payment of amounts due under the two senior secured promissory notes.  The complaint specifies damages totaling $858,292, plus pre-judgment interest, costs of suit and other relief.  In June 2011, we filed a cross-complaint against Gemini for monetary damages related to Gemini’s disposition of the pledged shares.  It is Gemini’s position that we remain obligated to pay Gemini the $858,292 in claimed damages plus pre-judgment interest, costs of suit and other relief, less the $10,000 that Gemini claims was derived from the sale of the pledged shares.  It is our position, expressed in our cross-complaint, that Gemini’s disposition of the pledged shares failed to comply with the law and that the pledged shares had a fair market value that exceeded the debt for which they were sold, such that Gemini’s claimed obligation has been paid in full, and we are entitled to certain damages and related relief.

Exemption From Registration. The shares of Common Stock referenced in Part II, Item 2 above were issued in reliance upon the exemption from securities registration afforded by the provisions of Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, (“Securities Act”), and/or Regulation D, as promulgated by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act, based upon the following: (a) each of the persons to whom the shares of Common Stock were issued (each such person, an “Investor”) confirmed to the Company that it or he is an “accredited investor,” as defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act and has such background, education and experience in financial and business matters as to be able to evaluate the merits and risks of an investment in the securities, (b) there was no public offering or general solicitation with respect to the offering of such shares, (c) each Investor was provided with certain disclosure materials and all other information requested with respect to the Company, (d) each Investor acknowledged that all securities being purchased were being purchased for investment intent and were “restricted securities” for purposes of the Securities Act, and agreed to transfer such securities only in a transaction registered under the Securities Act or exempt from registration under the Securities Act and (e) a legend has been, or will be, placed on the certificates representing each such security stating that it was restricted and could only be transferred if subsequently registered under the Securities Act or transferred in a transaction exempt from registration under the Securities Act.
 
ITEM 3.  DEFAULTS UPON SENIOR SECURITIES
 
 On November 18, 2008, the Company entered into a senior secured promissory note agreement for $625,000.  Under the terms of the promissory note agreement, principal and any unpaid interest shall be repaid by the due date, or upon a minimum of $1,500,000 being raised by the Company.  The note bears interest at 12% per annum and may be repaid at any time before the repayment date, in part or in full, without penalty, and is secured by common stock personally owned by an officer of the Company.  The outstanding principal and unpaid accrued interest may be converted, at any time, in whole or in part, into shares of the Company’s common stock on the basis of $0.65 per share.  The Third Extension due date of November 18, 2009 was not extended further, and therefore, the Company is in default in the payment of the principal and unpaid accrued interest.  In connection with the default, shares from a company officer which had been pledged as collateral for the note were surrendered to the creditor.
