SECUREALERT, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)


(1)
BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial information of SecureAlert, Inc. and subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company” or “SecureAlert”) has been prepared in accordance with the Instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).  Certain information and disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations.  In the opinion of management, the accompanying interim consolidated financial information contains all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position as of December 31, 2011, and results of its operations for the three months ended December 31, 2011 and 2010.  These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the annual consolidated financial statements and notes thereto that are included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2011.  The results of operations for the three months ended December 31, 2011 may not be indicative of the results for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2012.

(2)
GOING CONCERN
 
Although the Company generated positive cash flows from operating activities for the three months ended December 31, 2011, the Company has incurred recurring net losses.  As a result, this factor raises substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.  In order for the Company to achieve successful operations, the Company must consistently generate positive cash flows from operating activities and obtain the necessary funding to meet its projected capital investment requirements.

Management’s plans with respect to this uncertainty include expanding the market for its ReliAlert™ portfolio of products and services, raising additional capital from the issuance of stock and entering into debt financing agreements.  There can be no assurance that revenues will increase rapidly enough to offset operating losses and repay debts.  If the Company is unable to continue generating cash flows from operating activities or obtain additional financing, it will be unable to continue the development of its products and may have to cease operations.
 
(3)         PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION
 
The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of SecureAlert and its subsidiaries. All significant inter-company transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

(4)         RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) or other standard setting bodies, which are adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date. Unless otherwise discussed, the Company believes that the impact of recently issued standards that are not yet effective will not have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations upon adoption.

In September 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-08, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Goodwill for Impairment, an amendment of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. The ASU permits an entity to make a qualitative assessment of whether it is more likely than not that a reporting unit’s fair value is less than its carrying amount before applying the two-step goodwill impairment test. If an entity concludes it is not more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, it does not need to perform the two-step impairment test. The ASU is effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. This guidance is not expected to have a material impact to the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

(5)           IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS
 
The Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the book value of an asset may not be recoverable and in the case of goodwill, at least annually. The Company evaluates whether events and circumstances have occurred which indicate possible impairment as of each balance sheet date. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its fair value, an impairment charge is recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the estimated fair value of the asset.  Impairment of long-lived assets is assessed at the lowest levels for which there is an identifiable fair value that is independent of other groups of assets.  During the three months ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, the Company had no impairments.

(6)           REVENUE RECOGNITION

The Company’s revenue has historically been from two sources: (i) monitoring services; and (ii) product sales.

Monitoring Services
Monitoring services include two components: (a) lease contracts in which the Company provides monitoring services and leases devices to distributors or end users and the Company retains ownership of the leased device; and (b) monitoring services purchased by distributors or end users who have previously purchased monitoring devices and opt to use the Company’s monitoring services.

The Company typically leases its devices under one-year contracts with customers that opt to use the Company’s monitoring services.  However, these contracts may be cancelled by either party at anytime with 30 days notice.  Under the Company’s standard leasing contract, the leased device becomes billable on the date of activation or 7 to 21 days from the date the device is assigned to the lessee, and remains billable until the device is returned to the Company.  The Company recognizes revenue on leased devices at the end of each month that monitoring services have been provided.  In those circumstances in which the Company receives payment in advance, the Company records these payments as deferred revenue.

Product Sales
The Company may sell its monitoring devices in certain situations to its customers. In addition, the Company may sell equipment in connection with the building out and setting up a monitoring center on behalf of its customers. The Company recognizes product sales revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement with the customer exists, title passes to the customer and the customer cannot return the devices or equipment, prices are fixed or determinable (including sales not being made outside the normal payment terms) and collection is reasonably assured. When purchasing products (such as TrackerPAL™ and ReliAlert™ devices) from the Company, customers may, but are not required to, enter into monitoring service contracts with the Company.  The Company recognizes revenue on monitoring services for customers that have previously purchased devices at the end of each month that monitoring services have been provided.

The Company sells and installs standalone tracking and charging systems that may or may not require ongoing monitoring by the Company.  The Company has experience in component installation costs and direct labor hours related to this type of sale and can typically reasonably estimate costs, therefore the Company recognizes revenue over the period in which the installation services are performed using the percentage-of-completion method of accounting for material installations.  The Company typically uses labor hours or costs incurred to date as a percentage of the total estimated labor hours or costs to fulfill the contract as the most reliable and meaningful measure that is available for determining a project’s progress toward completion.  The Company evaluates its estimated labor hours and costs and determines the estimated gross profit or loss on each installation for each reporting period.  If it is determined that total cost estimates are likely to exceed revenues, the Company accrues the estimated losses immediately.
 
Other Matters
The Company considers an arrangement with payment terms longer than the Company’s normal terms not to be fixed or determinable, and revenue is recognized when the fee becomes due.  Normal payment terms for the sale of monitoring services and products are due upon receipt to 30 days.  The Company sells its devices and services directly to end users and to distributors.  Distributors do not have general rights of return.  Also, distributors have no price protection or stock protection rights with respect to devices sold to them by the Company.  Generally, title and risk of loss pass to the buyer upon delivery of the devices.

The Company estimates its product returns based on historical experience and maintains an allowance for estimated returns, which is recorded as a reduction to accounts receivable and revenue.

Shipping and handling fees charged to customers are included as part of net revenues.  The related freight costs and supplies directly associated with shipping products to customers are included as a component of cost of revenues.

 (7)           GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION

During the three months ended December 31, 2011, the Company recognized revenues from international sources from its products and monitoring services.  Revenues are attributed to the geographic areas based on the location of the customers purchasing and leasing the products.  The revenues recognized by geographic area for the three months ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, are as follows:

(8)           NET LOSS PER COMMON SHARE

Basic net loss per common share ("Basic EPS") is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.

Diluted net loss per common share ("Diluted EPS") is computed by dividing net loss attributable to common shareholders by the sum of the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding and the weighted-average dilutive common share equivalents outstanding.  The computation of Diluted EPS does not assume exercise or conversion of securities that would have an anti-dilutive effect.

Common share equivalents consist of shares issuable upon the exercise of common stock options and warrants, and shares issuable upon conversion of preferred stock.  As of December 31, 2011 and 2010, there were 435,502,286 and 264,934,961 outstanding common share equivalents, respectively, that were not included in the computation of Diluted EPS as their effect would be anti-dilutive.  The common stock equivalents outstanding as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, consisted of the following:

The fair value of each stock option and warrant grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The Company granted warrants to purchase 10,900,000 and 0 shares of common stock during the three months ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.  The warrants to purchase common stock granted during the three months ended December 31, 2011 were as follows: warrant for 6,000,000 shares to settle a lawsuit, valued at $253,046; warrants for a total of 3,700,000 shares to current and former directors for compensation as directors, valued at $105,042; and a warrant for 1,200,000 shares granted to a consultant for services, valued at $33,358.  The expected life of stock options (warrants) represents the period of time that the stock options or warrants are expected to be outstanding based on the simplified method allowed under GAAP. The expected volatility is based on the historical price volatility of the Company’s common stock. The risk-free interest rate represents the U.S. Treasury bill rate for the expected life of the related stock options (warrants). The dividend yield represents the Company’s anticipated cash dividends over the expected life of the stock options (warrants). Additionally, the Company recorded $602,475 and $0 of expense for the three months ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, related to the vesting and re-pricing of all stock options and warrants granted in prior years.  Compensation expense associated with unvested stock options and warrants of $2,547,434 will be recognized in future periods through September 30, 2014.  The option and warrant grants for three months ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 were valued using the Black-Scholes model with the following weighted-average assumptions:

 (18)        PREFERRED STOCK

The Company is authorized to issue up to 20,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $0.0001 par value per share. The Company's Board of Directors has the authority to amend the Company's Articles of Incorporation, without further shareholder approval, to designate and determine, in whole or in part, the preferences, limitations and relative rights of the preferred stock before any issuance of the preferred stock and to create one or more series of preferred stock.

Series D Convertible Preferred Stock
On July 27, 2011, the Company amended its Articles of Incorporation and increased the total designated shares of Series D Preferred stock of the Company from 70,000 to 85,000 shares.

During the three months ended December 31, 2011, the Company issued a total of 4,008 shares of Series D Preferred stock in consideration for $1,808,000 in net cash proceeds. As of December 31, 2011 and September 30, 2011, there were 48,853 and 44,845 Series D Preferred shares outstanding, respectively.

Dividends
The Series D Preferred stock is entitled to dividends at the rate equal to eight percent (8%) per annum calculated on the purchase amount actually paid for the shares or amount of debt converted.  The dividend is payable in cash or shares of common stock at the sole discretion of the Board of Directors. If a dividend is paid in shares of common stock of the Company, the number of shares to be issued is based on the average per share market price of the common stock for the 14-day period immediately preceding the applicable accrual date (i.e., March 31, June 30, September 30, or December 31, as the case may be).  Dividends are payable quarterly, no later than 30 days following the end of the accrual period.  During the three months ended December 31, 2011, the Company issued 5,376,499 shares of common stock to pay $541,797 of accrued dividends on the Series D Preferred stock earned during the three months ended September 30, 2011.  Subsequent to December 31, 2011, the Company issued 8,390,477 shares of common stock to pay $601,862 of accrued dividends on Series D Preferred stock earned during the three months ended December 31, 2011.

Convertibility
Each share of Series D Preferred stock may be converted into 6,000 shares of common stock, commencing after ninety days from the date of issue.  During the three months ended December 31, 2011, no shares of Series D Preferred stock were converted into common stock. On December 31, 2011, the Company obtained forbearance agreements from investors deferring the holders' ability to convert 6,450 shares of Series D Preferred stock into common stock to avoid reporting a derivative liability at December 31, 2011, since 1,522 shares would be over the 85,000 shares designated for the series if all outstanding Series D Preferred stock warrants were exercised for the purchase of 5,200 shares.

Voting Rights and Liquidation Preference
The holders of the Series D Preferred stock may vote their shares on an as-converted basis on any issue presented for a vote of the shareholders, including the election of directors and the approval of certain transactions such as a merger or other business combination of the Company.  As of December 31, 2011 and September 30, 2011, there were 48,853 and 44,845 shares of Series D Preferred stock outstanding with voting rights equivalent to 293,118,000 and 269,070,000 shares of common stock, respectively.

Additionally, the holders are entitled to a liquidation preference equal to their original investment amount. In the event of the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Company (including in connection with a permitted sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets), whether voluntary or involuntary, the holders of shares of Series D Preferred Stock then outstanding will be entitled to receive, out of the assets of the Company available for distribution to its shareholders, an amount per share equal to original issue price, as adjusted to reflect any stock split, stock dividend, combination, recapitalization and the like with respect to the Series D Preferred Stock.

Series D Preferred Stock Purchase Warrants
During the fiscal year ended September 30, 2011, the Company issued and fully vested warrants to purchase a total of 1,400 shares of Series D Preferred stock at an exercise price of $500 per share.  The warrants were valued using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model as if the shares were converted into common stock.  The related value associated with these four-year warrants was $554,564 based upon the following inputs:  volatility of 108.05%, risk-free rate of 0.50%, exercise price of $0.0833, and market price on grant date of $0.09.  The warrants were issued in connection with a subscription to purchase Series D Preferred stock.

As of December 31, 2011 and September 30, 2011, the Company had warrants outstanding for the purchase of 5,400 shares of Series D Preferred stock.

SecureAlert Monitoring, Inc. Series A Preferred Shares
During the fiscal year ended September 30, 2007, and pursuant to Board of Directors approval, the Company amended the articles of incorporation of its subsidiary, SecureAlert Monitoring, Inc. (“SMI”) to designate  3,590,000 shares of preferred stock as Series A Convertible Redeemable Non-Voting Preferred stock (“SMI Series A Preferred stock”).

On March 24, 2008, SMI redeemed all outstanding shares of SMI Series A. The former SMI Series A shareholders were entitled to receive quarterly contingent payments through March 23, 2011, based on a rate of $1.54 per day times the number of parolee contracts calculated in days during the quarter, payable in either cash or common stock at the Company’s option. The Company was required to make quarterly adjustments as necessary to reflect the difference between the estimated and actual contingency payments to the former SMI Series A shareholders. During the three months ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, the Company recorded income of $0 and $15,176, respectively, to reflect the change between the estimated and actual contingency payments.  The Company no longer has any obligation for contingent or other payments to the former holders of the SMI Series A.

Item 2.                      Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Forward-looking Statements

This Report contains information that constitutes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Exchange Act”).  Generally, the statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that are not purely historical can be considered to be “forward-looking statements.”  These statements represent our expectations, hopes, beliefs, anticipations, commitments, intentions, and strategies regarding the future.  They may be identified by the use of words or phrases such as “believes,” “expects,” “intends,” “anticipates,” “should,” “plans,” “estimates,” “projects,” “potential,” and “will,” among others.  Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements contained in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations regarding our financial performance, revenue, and expense levels in the future and the sufficiency of our existing assets to fund future operations and capital spending needs.  We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.  In addition, forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from our historical experience and our present expectations or projections.  These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, those described in “Risk Factors” in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, and those described from time to time in our reports filed with the SEC.

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto that are contained in this Report, as well as Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2011, and Current Reports on Form 8-K that have been filed with the SEC through the date of this Report. Except as otherwise indicated, as used in this Report, the terms “the Company,” “SecureAlert,” “we,” “our,” “us,” refer to SecureAlert, Inc., a Utah corporation.

General

We market and deploy offender management programs, combining patented GPS tracking technologies, fulltime 24/7/365 intervention-based monitoring capabilities and case management services.  Our vision is to be the global market leader for delivering the most reliable offender management solutions, which leverage superior intervention capabilities and integrated communication technologies.  We believe that we currently deliver the only offender management technology, which effectively integrates GPS, RF and an interactive 3-way voice communication system into a single piece device, deployable worldwide.  Through our patented electronic monitoring technologies and services, we empower law enforcement, corrections and rehabilitation professionals with offender, defendant, probationer and parolee programs, which grant convicted criminals and pre-trial suspects an accountable opportunity to be “free from prison”.  This provides for greater public safety at a lower cost compared to incarceration or traditional resource-intensive alternatives.

Strategy

Our global growth strategy is to empower worldwide national security officials, law enforcement, corrections departments and rehabilitation professionals with sole-sourced offender management solutions, which integrate reliable intervention technologies in support of re-socialization or mandated monitoring initiatives.  The use of our interactive services and intervention products is intended to provide law enforcement and judiciaries alike, with the ability to provide offenders a level of unmatched “real-time” accountability, while preserving public safety costs that are lower than those associated with traditional incarceration or other transitional service offerings.

We intend to accomplish our global strategy through the “value-driven” yet profitable deployment of a portfolio of proprietary and non-proprietary GPS/RF real-time monitoring and intervention products and services, which can also include alcohol and drug tracking and testing on behalf of corrections, probation, law enforcement and rehabilitation personnel worldwide, all in support of offender reformation, re-socialization and recidivism reduction initiatives.
 

 
21

 
 
Our exclusive portfolio of products and services balances the need to dynamically track and monitor offenders with the opportunity to positively encourage and transform offenders, with the aim of reducing recidivism rates through our proprietary C.A.R.E (Correction, Accountability, Rehabilitation, Empowerment) programs and client-adapted initiatives.

We will continue to innovate, develop and deploy adaptive, cost-effective and reliable interactive technologies, which meet the ever-changing needs of our global clients, while providing value-driven and enhanced public safety services.  Our goal is to continue to manufacture proprietary technologies, while also procuring complementary, best-in-class technologies through world-class companies such as Alcohol Monitoring Services (AMS), which markets SCRAM continuous alcohol monitoring devices and/or 3M, which markets the E3 Presence Monitoring, MEMS Alcohol Monitoring and TRaCE Inmate Tracking products.

In summary, SecureAlert is committed to delivering a superior proprietary and non-proprietary portfolio of reliable, intervention monitoring products and services for the global offender management marketplace, where we are currently targeting pilots and deployments throughout the world in various regions (North America, Latin America and Caribbean, Australasia, Africa and Eastern and Western Europe).  We have shown meaningful international growth during fiscal year 2011, which we anticipate to continue during fiscal year 2012 and which will remain a concerted focus for the Company.

Critical Accounting Policies

In Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2011 included in our Form 10-K, we discuss those accounting policies that are considered to be significant in determining our results of operations and financial position.

The preparation of financial statements requires management to make significant estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. By their nature, these judgments are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty. We assess the reasonableness of our estimates, including those related to bad debts, inventories, intangible assets, warranty obligations, product liability, revenue, and income taxes. We base our estimates on historical experience as well as available current information on a regular basis.  Management uses this information to form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities.  Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Results of Operations

Three months ended December 31, 2011, compared to three months ended December 31, 2010

Revenues

For the three months ended December 31, 2011, we had revenues from operations of $5,554,704, compared to $3,676,964 for the three months ended December 31, 2010, an increase of $1,877,740 (51%).  Of these revenues, $4,290,035 and $3,420,350 were from monitoring and other related services for the three months ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, an increase of $869,685 (25%).  The increase of $869,685 was primarily attributed to an increase in international monitoring and other related services of $672,949 (369%) for the three months ended December 2011, compared to the same period ended in 2010. Additionally, domestic revenues increased $196,736 (6%) for the three months ended December 31, 2011, compared to the same period ended in 2010.

Product revenues increased from $256,614 for the three months ended December 31, 2010, compared to $1,264,669 for the three months ended December 31, 2011, an increase of $1,008,055 (393%).  The increase was attributed to one-time revenues recognized in connection with the development of a charging solution for an international customer for $1,071,983.

For the three months ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, domestic revenues from one-piece activated GPS tracking devices supported entirely about a single limb of the monitored person totaled $1,512,065 and $1,362,425 respectively.

 
22

 
 
Cost of Revenues

During the three months ended December 31, 2011, cost of revenues totaled $2,829,020, compared to cost of revenues during the three months ended December 31, 2010 of $1,863,250, an increase of $965,770.  The increase in cost of revenues in 2011 resulted primarily from increases of $290,059 in royalties related to international sales, $232,278 in amortization expense, and $150,734 in alcohol monitoring bracelet costs.

Amortization for the three months ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 totaled $449,532 and $217,254, respectively. Amortization costs are based on a three-year useful life for TrackerPAL™ and ReliAlert™ devices.  Devices that are leased or retained by us for future deployment or sale are amortized over three years.  We believe this three-year life is appropriate due to rapid changes in electronic monitoring technology and the corresponding potential for obsolescence.  Management periodically assesses the useful life of the devices for appropriateness.

We expect the cost of revenues as a percentage of revenues to decrease in the foreseeable future due to (a) economies of scale realized through projected increases in revenues, and (b) further development of our proprietary software, enabling each operator to monitor more devices resulting in lower monitoring center costs.

Gross Profit and Margin

During the three months ended December 31, 2011, gross profit totaled $2,725,684, or 49 percent of net revenues, compared to $1,813,714, or 49 percent of net revenues during the three months ended December 31, 2010, an improvement of $911,970, due to higher net revenues during the 2011 quarter.

Research and Development Expenses

During the three months ended December 31, 2011, we incurred research and development expenses of $331,634 compared to similar expenses recognized during the three months ended December 31, 2010 totaling $330,828.  These research and development costs were incurred to improve efficiency in the software, firmware and hardware of our products and services.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

During the three months ended December 31, 2011, our selling, general and administrative expenses totaled $3,770,169, compared to $3,411,089 for the three months ended December 31, 2010.  The increase of $359,080 is the result of increases in non-cash compensation ($699,194) less decreases in travel ($53,779), insurance ($44,314), legal and professional fees ($35,883), taxes ($23,871), and other various expenses ($182,267).  Increase in non-cash compensation expense of $699,194 related to the vesting of options and warrants issued to employees.

Other Income and Expense
 
For the three months ended December 31, 2011, interest expense was $251,978, compared to $154,149 for the three months ended December 31, 2010. This amount includes non-cash interest expense of $58,259 related to debt discount amortization in connection with previously acquired entity and re-pricing of warrants related to debt instruments.

Net Loss

We had a net loss for the three months ended December 31, 2011 totaling $1,618,821, compared to a net loss of $2,069,733 for the three months ended December 31, 2010.  This decrease of $450,912 in net loss is due primarily to increases in gross profit.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We are currently unable to finance our business solely from cash flows from operating activities. During the three months ended December 31, 2011, we supplemented cash flows to finance our business from the sale and issuance of debt and equity securities, providing net cash proceeds from financing activities of $1,027,089.

 
23

 
 
As of December 31, 2011, we had unrestricted cash of $1,815,461 and a working capital deficit of $492,341, compared to unrestricted cash of $949,749 and a working capital deficit of $1,201,955 as of September 30, 2011.  For the three months ended December 31, 2011, our operating activities provided cash of $868,339 compared to $2,205,727 of cash used in operating activities for the three months ended December 31, 2010.

We used cash of $1,029,716 for investing activities during the three months ended December 31, 2011, compared to $471,497 of cash used in investing activities in the three months ended December 31, 2010.

Financing activities for the three months ended December 31, 2011, provided cash of $1,027,089, compared to $2,211,576 for the three months ended December 31, 2010. For the three months ended December 31, 2011, we received net proceeds of $1,808,000 from the sale and issuance of shares of Series D Convertible Preferred stock, proceeds of $1,300,000 from the issuance of related-party debt and $923 from the issuance of notes payable.  Cash decreased by $1,885,760 due to payments on related-party notes payable and $196,074 due to payments on notes payable.  Cash provided by financing activities was used to purchase monitoring equipment.

We incurred a net loss of $1,618,821 for the three months ended December 31, 2011, and a loss from operations of $1,376,119.  In addition, we had an accumulated deficit of $230,674,340 as of December 31, 2011.  These factors, as well as the risk factors set out in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2011, raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.  The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty.  Our plans with respect to this uncertainty include raising additional capital from the sale and issuance of equity securities, entering into debt financing agreements and additional borrowings, and expanding our market for our ReliAlert™ portfolio of product and monitoring services.  There can be no assurance that revenues will increase rapidly enough to deliver profitable operating results and pay our debts as they come due.  Likewise, there can be no assurance that we will be successful in raising additional capital from the sale of equity or debt securities.  If we are unable to increase cash flows from operating activities or obtain additional financing, we will be unable to continue the development of our business and may have to cease operations.

Item 3.    Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Our business is extending to several countries outside the United States, and we intend to continue to expand our foreign operations.  As a result, our revenues and results of operations are affected by fluctuations in currency exchange rates, interest rates, and other uncertainties inherent in doing business in more than one currency.  In addition, our operations are exposed to risks that are associated with changes in social, political, and economic conditions in the foreign countries in which we operate, including changes in the laws and policies that govern foreign investment, as well as, to a lesser extent, changes in United States laws and regulations relating to foreign trade and investment.

Foreign Currency Risks.  We had $1,936,446 and $362,524 in revenues from sources outside the United States for the three months ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.  Although we normally transact the sale of monitoring equipment and services in U.S. Dollars, we received some payments in an equivalent value of foreign currencies which resulted in a foreign exchange loss of $65,666 and $97 during the three months ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.  We occasionally purchase goods and services in foreign currencies which did not result in any currency exchange rate losses during the three months ended December 31, 2011 and 2010.  Changes in currency exchange rates affect the relative prices at which we sell our products and purchase goods and services.  Given the uncertainty of exchange rate fluctuations, we cannot estimate the effect of these fluctuations on our future business, product pricing, results of operations, or financial condition.

We do not use foreign currency exchange contracts or derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes.  To the extent foreign sales become a more significant part of our business in the future, we may seek to implement strategies which make use of these or other instruments in order to minimize the effects of foreign currency exchange on our business.

Item 4.     Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures to ensure that information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.  Our management evaluated, with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.  Based on this evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of December 31, 2011.

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting during our quarter ended December 31, 2011 that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II.   OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1.    Legal Proceedings

We are party to the following legal proceedings:

RACO Wireless LLC v SecureAlert, Inc. On October 12, 2010, RACO Wireless, LLC (“RACO”) filed a complaint alleging that the Company breached a contract by failing to place a sufficient number of RACO SIM chips in its new activations of monitoring devices.  The Company denied these allegations and filed a counterclaim against RACO.  During the fiscal year ended September 30, 2011, the parties agreed to settle this litigation. As part of the settlement agreement, the Company granted RACO warrants to purchase 6,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $0.098 per share, valued at $253,046 using the Black-Scholes valuation model during the quarter ended December 31, 2011.

Aculis, Inc. v. SecureAlert, Inc.  Aculis, Inc. filed a complaint in the Fourth District Court in and for Utah County, Utah, on June 7, 2010, alleging breach of contract, unjust enrichment, and a claim for $208,889 in unpaid products and services, incremental to the $4,840,891 that the Company had already paid to Aculis.  The Company filed a counterclaim seeking rescission of the contract and refund of all amounts paid to Aculis.  The parties entered into a settlement agreement on December 16, 2011, and both lawsuits were dismissed with prejudice.

ArrivalStar S.A. and Melvino Technologies Ltd. v. SecureAlert, Inc.  ArrivalStar S.A. and Melvino Technologies Ltd., filed a complaint in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Illinois claiming patent infringement of U.S. Patent No. 6,741,927.  The Company denies these allegations and intends to vigorously defend against this complaint.  The Company has not accrued any potential loss as the probability of incurring a material loss is deemed remote by management, after consultation with legal counsel.

Damita Lasso v. Court Programs, Inc. and SecureAlert, Inc.  On October 13, 2011, Ms. Lasso filed a complaint in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Mississippi Southern Division alleging sexual harassment and a harassment and hostile work environment created by a co-worker.  The Company believes it acted appropriately and is vigorously defending against these allegations.
