NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Use of Estimates

Preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior year financial statements to conform to the current year presentation. These reclassifications had no impact on previously reported net income or retained earnings.

Concentration of Credit Risk

The Company maintains cash accounts with major financial institutions. From time to time, amounts deposited may exceed the FDIC insured limits.

Accounts Receivables

Accounts receivable are carried at estimated net realizable value. The Company has a policy of reserving for uncollectable accounts based on its best estimate of the amount of probable credit losses in its existing accounts receivable. The Company calculates the allowance based on a specific analysis of past due balances. Past due status for a particular customer is based on how recently payments have been received from that customer. Historically, the Company’s actual collection experience has not differed significantly from its estimates, due primarily to credit and collections practices and the financial strength of its customers.

The Company’s practice of reserving for uncollectable citations is based on its best estimate of the amount of probable losses. This estimate accounts for an initial loss in expected receivables from the existing population of uncollected receivables. The Company calculates allowances based on the historical information from similar programs in the industry. Past due status is based on varying client business rules for the extension of time allotted for payment. The Company manages both the issuance and the collection of unpaid fines based on the diverse criteria by each contract. Thus, calculating “outstanding” with respect to a normal 30/60/90 day collections timeline is not an exact science. To be conservative, the percentage of allowance is calculated from the first day of citation issuance, but this percentage may be decreased at a later date to include collections received. Historically, the Company’s actual collection experience has not differed significantly from its estimate, due to its ability to leverage its relationship with state and local governments to secure collection of citations issued, as many states will not renew vehicle registrations with outstanding, unpaid citations.

Inventory

Inventory principally consists of hardware and third-party packaged software that is modified to conform to customer specifications and held temporarily until the completion of a contract. These amounts are stated at lower of first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) cost or market.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation of furniture, vehicles, computer equipment and software and phone equipment is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives (two to ten years), and leasehold improvements are amortized on a straight-line basis over the shorter of their estimated useful lives or the lease term (which is three to five years).

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue when all four of the following basic criteria are met: (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (ii) delivery or installation has been completed; (iii) the customer accepts and verifies receipt; and (iv) collectability is reasonably assured. The Company considers delivery to its customers to have occurred at the time products are delivered and/or installation work is completed and the customer acknowledges its acceptance of the work.

The Company provides its customers with a warranty against defects in the installation of its vehicle upfitting solutions for one year from the date of installation. Warranty claims were $10,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and $4,422 for three months ended March 31, 2011. The Company also performs warranty repair services on behalf of the manufacturers of the equipment it sells. Effective January 2011, the Company offers separately priced extended warranty and product maintenance contracts to its customers on the equipment sold by the Company. Revenues from extended warranty services are apportioned over the period of the extended warranties service contracts. Revenue from extended warranties amounted to $78,915 for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and $44,219 for the three months ended March 31, 2011.

For automatic traffic enforcement revenue, the Company recognizes the revenue on the date that the Company determines a valid violation has occurred. The Company records revenue related to automated traffic violations for the Company’s share of the violation amount.

Share-Based Compensation

The Company accounts for stock incentive plans by measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all share-based awards on estimated fair values, net of estimated and actual forfeitures, on a straight line basis over the period during which the employee is required to provide services in exchange for the award.

Income Taxes

The Company uses the liability method to account for income taxes. Income tax expense includes income taxes currently payable and deferred taxes arising from temporary differences between financial reporting and income tax bases of assets and liabilities. Deferred income taxes are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. Income tax expense, if any, consists of the taxes payable for the current period. Valuation allowances are established when the realization of deferred tax assets are not considered more likely than not.

Earnings per Share

Basic earnings per share are computed by dividing net income available to holders of our common stock (the “Common Stock”) by the weighted average number of shares of Common Stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share are computed by adjusting the denominator of the basic earnings per share computation for the effect of potential dilutive shares of Common Stock outstanding during the period.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheets for cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate their fair values based on the short-term maturity of these instruments. The carrying amount of the Company’s note obligations approximate fair value, as the terms of these notes are consistent with terms available in the market for instruments with similar risk.

Segment Reporting

Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 280, Segment Reporting, requires that an enterprise report selected information about operating segments in its financial reports issued to its shareholders. Based on the analysis performed by the Company, management has determined that the Company only has one operating segment, which is Traffic Safety Solutions. The chief operating decision-makers use combined results to make operating and strategic decisions, and, therefore, the Company believes that it is not required to disclose information for any additional segments.

Newly Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Management does not believe that any recently issued but not yet effective accounting pronouncements, if adopted, would have a material effect on our financial statements.

NOTE 3 – LINE OF CREDIT AND LETTER OF CREDIT

On November 4, 2010, the Company entered into a $500,000 revolving line of credit agreement with a bank. Under this agreement, the Company may repay principal amounts and re-borrow them during the term of the agreement. Interest is payable at the rate of the BBA LIBOR Daily Floating rate plus 4%. The line of credit is collateralized by all assets of the Company and is personally guaranteed by the two principal officers of the Company. The maturity date for the line of credit agreement has been extended to November 30, 2012. As of March 31, 2012 amounts outstanding under the line of credit were $0.

NOTE 4 – NOTES PAYABLE – STOCKHOLDERS

The Company financed the repurchase of shares of Common Stock and warrants from the proceeds of convertible promissory notes issued on November 9, 2009 by the Company in favor of a lender group that included two directors of the Company, Messrs. C.B. Brechin and Scott Rutherford, and a former director, Mr. Bruce Robinson, in the respective principal amounts of $250,000, $250,000 and $200,000 (each, a “Promissory Note, and together, the “Promissory Notes”). Each Promissory Note bears interest at the rate of 12% per annum and at the time of execution was to be convertible into shares of Common Stock, at the option of each holder, at an original conversion price of $.07 per share. At the time of the execution of the Promissory Notes, the Company agreed to pay the unpaid principal balance of the Promissory Notes and all accrued but unpaid interest on the date that was the earlier of (i) two (2) years from the issue date of the notes, or (ii) ten (10) business days from the date of closing by the Company of any equity financing generating gross proceeds in the aggregate amount of not less than Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000).

On April 1, 2010, the Company and each member of the lender group executed a First Amendment to the Unsecured Promissory Note. Each Promissory Note was amended as described below to:

●

Revise the conversion price in the provision that allows the holder of the Promissory Note to elect to convert any outstanding and unpaid principal portion of the Promissory Note and any accrued but unpaid interest into shares of the Common Stock at a price of fourteen cents ($0.14) per share of Common Stock, and

●

Amend the maturity date provided the Company agrees to pay the unpaid principal balance of the Promissory Note and all accrued but unpaid interest on the date that is the earlier of (i) four (4) years from the issue date of the Promissory Note or (ii) ten (10) business days from the date of closing by the Company of any equity financing generating gross proceeds in the aggregate amount of not less than Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000).

On December 12, 2011, the Promissory Note issued to Mr. Bruce Robinson was repaid in full by converting the outstanding balance into 1,428,572 shares of Common Stock. As of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the amounts outstanding under the Promissory Notes totaled $500,000.

As of March 31, 2012 and 2011, capital lease assets of $1,306,179 and $358,965, respectively, net of accumulated amortization of $224,393 and $47,607, respectively, are included in property and equipment on the balance sheets.

The Company leases approximately 2,500 square feet of office space from a related party. Rent expense amounted to $10,577 and $8,256 for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

NOTE 6 – MAJOR CUSTOMERS AND VENDORS

Major Customers

The Company has several contracts with government agencies, of which sales to three major customers during the first quarter of 2012 represented 20%, 11% and 10%, respectively, of the total net sales for that quarter. Accounts receivable due from these three customers at March 31, 2012 amounted to 27%, 17% and 10%, respectively, of total accounts receivable at that date. Sales to the Company’s three major customers during the first quarter of 2011 represented 36%, 17% and 12%, respectively, of the total net sales for that quarter, and accounts receivable due from two of these customers at March 31, 2011 amounted to 45% and 14%, respectively, of total accounts receivable at that date.

On September 7, 2010, the Company issued a press release announcing that its board of directors authorized a stock repurchase program permitting the Company to repurchase up to $500,000 in shares of its outstanding Common Stock over the next 12 months. The stock repurchase program was subsequently extended for an additional twelve (12) months until September 7, 2012.

Products and Services

Public safety is a major concern for most communities – especially as populations grow, public safety budgets are reduced. One way to help make streets safer while reducing workload is a well-run photo red light or speed enforcement program. The objective of photo enforcement is to help reduce the incidences of aggressive driving through voluntary compliance. Revenue generated from fines routinely goes directly back into supporting other public safety initiatives.

A 1999 study using a sample of 4,526 police reports relating to motor vehicle crashes on public roads in four urban areas showed that 22% of these crashes were caused by the driver disobeying a traffic control device. (Synthesis and Evaluation of Red-Light Running Automated Enforcement Programs in the United States. FHWA-IF-00-004, Sep. 1999). The study also showed that motorists are more likely to be injured in crashes involving a failure to obey a traffic control device than in other types of crashes. Forty-five percent of these crashes cause injuries, compared to 30% for other types of crashes.

Speeding and failure to obey traffic control devices are estimated to cause more than 180,000 crashes every year, resulting in approximately 1,000 deaths and 90,000 injuries a year. Although opposition to red light cameras cite the increase in rear end collisions as cause for disapproval of cameras, a recent study conducted by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (Feb. 2008) reported that red-light cameras reduce front-into-side collisions and overall injury crashes. Because the types of crashes prevented by red light cameras tend to be far more severe than rear-end crashes, research has shown there is a positive aggregate benefit. Photo Enforcement solutions can reduce collisions, injuries and deaths by providing a useful tool for municipalities and law enforcement agencies – without unduly taxing drivers who do not break the law. Today, nearly 400 communities across the US operate red light or speed camera enforcement programs.

Brekford’s automated traffic safety enforcement products offer intersection safety (red light), photo speed, work zone and school bus enforcement options by way of a complete suite of solution-based products. By assembling a team of industry professionals with the most experience in this field, we have developed equipment and a full turn-key solution that we believe will ensure the success of any program. Having the advantage of a team with experience, we have created and implemented some of the most cutting-edge features into our design – while constructing end-to-end systems specifically with our clients’ needs in mind.

Automatic Traffic Safety Enforcement - Photo Speed & Red light Enforcement

Automatic traffic enforcement systems are one of a wide range of measures that are effective at reducing vehicle speeds and crashes. The automated speed enforcement (ASE) system is an enforcement technique with one or more motor vehicle sensors producing recorded images of motor vehicles traveling at speeds above a defined threshold. Images captured by the ASE system are processed and reviewed in an office environment and violation notices are mailed to the registered owner of the identified vehicle. ASE, if used, is one technology available to law enforcement as a supplement and not a replacement for traditional enforcement operations. Evaluations of ASE, both internationally and in the United States have identified some advantages over traditional speed enforcement methods. These include:

●	High rate of violation detection. ASE units can detect and record multiple violations per minute. This can provide a strong deterrent effect by increasing drivers’ perceived likelihood of being cited for speeding.

●

Physical safety of ASE operators and motorists. ASE can operate at locations where roadside traffic stops are dangerous or infeasible, and where traffic conditions are unsafe for police vehicles to enter the traffic stream and stop suspected violators. With ASE there is normally no vehicle pursuit or confrontation with motorists. ASE might also reduce the occurrence of traffic congestion due to driver distraction caused by traffic stops on the roadside.

●	Fairness of operation. Violations are recorded for all vehicles traveling in excess of the enforcement speed threshold.

●	Efficient use of resources. ASE can act as a “force multiplier,” enhancing the influence of limited traffic enforcement staff and resources.

Electronic Ticketing System- Slick-Ticket ™

Many of today’s law enforcement agencies are struggling to balance the increasing demand from their citizens for more services with limited and/or declining budgets. One of the easiest and most cost-effective ways agencies can address this issue is by deploying an electronic ticketing, or E-Ticketing solution. Automating the ticket issuing and processing system can significantly decrease cost, increase productivity and improve officer safety.

Brekford offers a unique functionality that streamlines the data entry process even further. Many law enforcement agencies that have deployed a mobile data system run background queries from national (NCIC), state, and local databases and Brekford’s solution captures the data from these mobile query files and auto-populates all of the requisite data into the electronic citation (E-Tix) form on the screen. Brekford’s Slick-Ticket ™ product is a fully portable, over-the-seat organizer for public safety vehicles, specially designed to house a printer and scanner to allow law enforcement officers to quickly access driver's license and registration information as well as issue tickets, warnings and citations.

Rugged Information Technology Solutions –Mobile data & Digital Video

Law enforcement agency, fire department and EMS personnel have unique requirements for fleet vehicle upfitting and IT equipment to include characteristics such as ruggedness and reliability. The equipment must be able to work in extreme environments that include high levels of vibration and shock, wide temperature ranges, varying humidity, electromagnetic interference as well as voltage and current transients. Our rugged and non-rugged IT products and mobile data communication systems provide public safety workers with the unique functionalities necessary to enable effective response to emergency situations.

For more than a decade, Brekford has been a distributor for most major brands in the mobile technology arena. We handle everything from Panasonic Toughbooks® and Arbitrator® digital video systems to emergency lighting systems and wireless technology. We believe that we have all of the high-end products our customers need to handle their day-to-day operations and protect the public they serve. Every product we sell is tested by highly trained technicians and guaranteed to work in even the most extreme conditions. We specialize in seamlessly incorporating custom built solutions within existing networks. We deliver our end-to-end solutions with service programs that work for agencies large and small, from turn-key drop shipping to municipal leases. Our commitment is to design and deliver solutions that meet or exceed industry standards for safety, ergonomics, reliability, serviceability and uniformity.

We develop integrated, interoperable, feature-rich mobile systems that enable first responders, such as police, fire and EMS, to obtain and exchange information in real time. The rapid dissemination of real time information is critical to determine and assure timely and precise resource allocation by public sector decision makers. As a premiere Panasonic Toughbook partner, we augment these rugged laptops by designing and manufacturing vehicle mounting systems and docking stations for in-vehicle communications equipment. From rugged laptop computers, tablets and hand-helds, GPS terminals, two-way radios, and full console systems, we provide ergonomically sound mounting products with full port replication.

Toughbook Arbitrator is a rugged revolution in law enforcement video capture. The fully integrated system offers unparalleled video capture (up to 360 degrees), storage and transfer, and is designed to work with back-end software for seamless video management, including archiving and retrieving. Brekford augments this solution with an Automatic License Plate Reader (ALPR / LPR), an image-processing technology used to identify vehicles by their license plates. License Plate Readers (LPRs) can record plates at about one per second at speeds of up to 70 MPH and they often utilize infrared cameras for clarity and to facilitate reading at any time of day or night. The data collected can either be processed in real-time, at the site of the read, or it can be transmitted to remote centers and processed at a later time.

Net Income

Net income for the three months ended March 31, 2012 amounted to $123,310 compared to $112,952 for the three months ended March 31, 2011, an increase of $10,358 or 9.17%.

Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources

At March 31, 2012, we had total current assets of $5.5 million and current liabilities of $2.6 million resulting in a working capital surplus of $2.9 million.

The Company reported net income of $123,310 for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and its accumulated deficit reduced to $6,258,996 at March 31, 2012. Cash flows provided by operations for the three months ended March 31, 2012 were $958,260.

Management believes that the Company’s current level of working capital combined with funds that it expects to generate in its operations during the next twelve months and available from its $500,000 revolving line of credit facility will be sufficient to sustain the business through at least April 1, 2013. While the Company has taken certain measures to conserve its capital and maintain its liquidity as it continues the effort to pursue its business initiatives, there can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in its efforts to expand its operations or that the expansion of its operations will improve its operating results. The Company also cannot provide any assurance that unforeseen circumstances, such as the current economic crisis, will not have a material adverse effect on the business that could require it to raise additional capital or take other measures to sustain operations in the event that outside sources of capital are not available. Although the Company has no specific indication that its business will be affected by the current weakened economic conditions or at a level beyond management’s ability to manage this risk, this matter is an uncertainty that is under continuous review by management. The weakened economy could also have an effect on the Company’s ability to obtain external funding if needed. If the Company encounters unforeseen circumstances it may need to curtail certain of its operations. Although management believes the Company has access to adequate capital resources, it has not secured any commitments for new financing at this time nor can it provide any assurance that new capital will be available to it on acceptable terms, if at all.

Management expects to incur a substantial increase in initial working capital requirement for the Company’s expansion into the automated traffic enforcement business but expects to cover the requirements of this expansion with funds it anticipates to generate in its operations. In addition, the Company is also negotiating for extended payment terms from suppliers of the equipment.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future material effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

In our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2012, our most critical accounting policies and estimates upon which our fiscal status depends were identified as those relating to accounts receivables allowances, revenue recognition, warrants and other derivative financial instruments and income taxes. We have reviewed our polices and determined that those policies remain our most critical accounting policies for the three months ended March 31, 2012.

ITEM 4.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company is required to maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), such as this Quarterly Report, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the periods specified by or pursuant to the Exchange Act, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal accounting officer (collectively, the “CEO”), as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the control. The design of any system of controls is also based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

An evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls as of March 31, 2012 was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the CEO. Based on that evaluation, management, including the CEO, has concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are, in fact, effective at the reasonable assurance level.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

During the quarter ended March 31, 2012, there was no change in our internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
