NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Nature of Operations

View Systems, Inc. (the “Company”) designs, develops and sells computer software and hardware used in conjunction with surveillance capabilities. The technology utilizes the compression and decompression of digital inputs. In March 2002, the Company acquired Milestone Technology, Inc., which has developed a concealed weapons detection portal. In July 2009, the Company acquired FiberXpress, Inc., which is a company that specializes in developing and selling equipment and components for the fiber optic and communication cable industries.

Basis of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, FiberXpress, Inc. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates

Management uses estimates and assumptions in preparing financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Those estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and the reported revenues and expenses. Actual results could differ from the estimates that were used.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable consists of amounts due from customers. Management periodically reviews the open accounts and makes a determination as to the ultimate collectability of each account. Once it is determined that collection is in doubt the account is written off as a bad debt. In order to provide for accounts that may become uncollectible in the future, the Company has established an allowance for doubtful accounts. The balance of the allowance for doubtful accounts is based on management’s judgment and the Company’s prior experience with managing accounts receivable.

The Company recognized bad debt expense of $0 and $0 for the periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Management’s determination is that the remaining balance is collectible and therefore no allowance for possible uncollectible accounts receivable has been recorded for the period ended June 30, 2014 and for the year ended December 31, 2013.

Revenue Recognition

The Company has three main products, namely the concealed weapons detection system, the visual first responder system and the Viewmaxx digital video system. In all cases revenue is considered earned when the product is shipped to the customer, installed (if necessary) and accepted by the customer as a completed sale. The concealed weapons detection system and the digital video system each require installation and training. The customer can engage us for installation and training, which is a revenue source separate and apart from the sale of the product. In those cases revenue is recognized at the completion of the installation and training and acceptance by the customer. However, the customer can also self-install or can engage another firm to provide installation and training. Each product has an unconditional 30 day warranty, during which time the product can be returned for a complete refund. Customers can purchase extended warranties, which provide for replacement or repair of the unit beyond the period provided by the unconditional warranty. Warranties can be purchased for various periods but generally they are for one year period that begins after any other warranties expire. The revenue from warranties is recognized on a straight line bases over the period covered by the warranty. Prior to the issuance of financial statements management reviews any returns subsequent to the end of the accounting period which are from sales recognized during the accounting period, and makes appropriate adjustments as necessary. Product prices are fixed or determinable and products are only shipped when collectability is reasonably assured.

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

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined by the first-in-first-out method (FIFO). As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 the Company’s inventory consisted of assembled units as well as unassembled parts of products.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment is recorded at cost and depreciated over their useful lives, using the straight-line and accelerated depreciation methods. Upon sale or retirement, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are eliminated from the respective accounts, and the resulting gain or loss is included in the results of operations. The useful lives of property and equipment for purposes of computing depreciation are as follows:

Equipment 5-7 years

Software tools 3 years

Depreciation expense for the periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 amounted to $3,200 and $5,762, respectively.

Stock-Based Compensation

We account for share-based compensation at fair value. Share-based compensation cost for stock options granted to employees, board members and service providers is determined at the grant date using an option pricing model that uses level 3 unobservable inputs. The value of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period.

Income Taxes

Income taxes are recorded under the assets and liabilities method whereby deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences, measured by enacted tax rates, attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss carry forwards. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period the rate change becomes effective. Valuation allowances are recorded for deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that such deferred tax assets will not be realized.

The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdictions, and in various state jurisdictions. The Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal, state and local examinations by tax authorities for years prior to 2009. the company policy is to recognize interest related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. The Company believes that it has appropriate support for the income tax positions it takes and expects to take on its tax returns, and that its accruals for tax liabilities are adequate for all open years based on an assessment of many factors including past experience and interpretations of tax law applied to the facts of each matter.

Net Loss Per Common Share

Basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss available to common stockholder by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares and dilutive potential common share equivalents then outstanding. Potential common shares consist of shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options and warrants in addition to shares that may be issued in the event that convertible debt is exchanged for shares of common stock. The calculation of the net loss per share available to common stockholders for the periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 does not include potential shares of common stock equivalents, as their impact would be antidilutive.

2. GOING CONCERN

The Company has incurred and continues to incur, losses from operations. For the six month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, the Company incurred net losses of $831,510 and $850,625, respectively. In addition, certain notes payable have come due and the Company is in default.

Management is actively working to cure these situations and has implemented major plans for the future growth and development of the Company. Management is in the process of renegotiating more favorable repayment terms on the notes payable and the Company anticipates that these negotiations will result in extended payment plans. In addition, during 2014 and 2013, the Company implemented marketing and information strategies to increase public awareness of its products and thereby sales. It has established new international markets which it believes will be the source for sales growth in the very near future. It also was able to reduce the per-unit cost of manufacturing its products. Additionally, the Company has increased the efficiency of its processes and focused its development efforts on products that appear to have greater sales potential.

Historically, the Company has financed its operations primarily through private financing. It is management’s intention to finance operations during the remainder of 2014 primarily through increased sales although there will still be a need for additional equity financing. In addition, management is actively seeking out mergers and acquisitions which would be beneficial to the future growth of the Company. There can be no assurance, however, that this financing will be successful and the Company may be required to further reduce expenses and scale back operations.

As discussed in Note 4, the Company is currently in default on a $50,000 note payable to a stockholder.

The consolidated financial statements presented above and the accompanying Notes have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and discharge of liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future, and does not include any adjustments to reflect possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets, or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the outcome of any extraordinary regulatory action, which would affect our ability to continue as a going concern.

Due to the conditions and events discussed above, there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

3. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) periodically issues new accounting standards in a continuing effort to improve standards of financial accounting and reporting. The Company has reviewed the recently issued pronouncements and concluded that there are no new accounting standards are applicable to the Company.

In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). This guidance is intended to improve and converge with international standards the financial requirements for revenue from contracts with customers. It will be effective for our first quarter 2017 and early adoption is not permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of adoption of this new accounting pronouncement on our financial statements.

4. NOTES PAYABLE

Notes payable as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 consists of the following:

	June 30, 2014		December 31, 2013

Lafayette Community Bank A term loan secured by a stockholder, payable in monthly installments of $2,587 commencing in December 25, 2009 but refinanced in May 2011. The loan is due in full on May 18, 2016. Interest accrues monthly at 7.5% per annum.		59,595		72,596

Stockholder Demand loan payable with interest at 5% per month. The loan is secured by the Company’s accounts receivable. The note payable matured on December 17, 2009 at which time the debt became due and payable and therefore the loan is currently in default.		50,000		50,000

Investor An unsecured loan from an investor, payable in monthly installments of $5,000 commencing July 1, 2013 until paid in full. The loan bears no interest and is the amount due as a result of a settlement of the stock settlement payable mentioned below.		10,000		45,000

Chase A secured loan to finance the purchase of a truck, payable monthly in installments of $533, which includes interest at 5.34% per annum.		976		4,618

2015	$	88,483
2016		29,643
2017		2,445
Thereafter		0
Total	$	120,571

5. INCOME TAXES

For income tax purposes the Company has net operating loss carry forwards of approximately $26,158,000 as of December 31, 2013 that may be used to offset future taxable income. In the instance of future corporate acquisitions, the net operating losses may be used to offset the future taxable income of a qualifying subsidiary corporation which meets IRS regulations governing such situations. The losses have accumulated since 1998 and they will start to expire in 2018. IRS regulations also provide that significant changes in ownership (greater that 50%) could result in the expiration of some of the net operating loss carry forwards. As of the date of this report the Company has not made an analysis of the changes in ownership to determine if any of these losses have expired. Due to the continuous losses from operations the Company has assigned a full valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets.

6. PREFERRED STOCK

In July 2005 the Company issued 7,171,725 shares of Series A Preferred Stock in payment of services. The issuance had been previously authorized by the Board of Directors. Each share of Series A Preferred Stock has a liquidation preference, in the event of liquidation of the corporation, of $0.001 per share before any payment or distribution is made to the holders of common stock.

During 2008 the Board of Directors approved a reverse split of the stock in which one new share of preferred stock was issued in exchange for each 80 shares of stock outstanding. Accordingly, the total issued of preferred stock was adjusted from 7,171,725 shares to 89,647 shares. The par value and the total authorized shares did not change.

Effective in 2010 the initial issuance of preferred of Series A Preferred can be converted into common stock in the ratio of 15:1. During 2011 the Board of Directors authorized the issuance of an additional 1,400,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock in payment of a loan from a shareholder in the amount of $64,000 and also in payment of services in the amount of $34,000. These additional shares can be converted to common stock in 2013. Each share is entitled to fifteen votes and shall be entitled to vote on any matters brought to a vote on the common stock shareholder.

During 2012 the Board of Directors authorized the issuance of an additional 1,500,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock in payment of deferred compensation and current compensation of $161,463.

During 2013 the Board of Directors authorized the issuance of an additional 500,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock in payment of services of $225,000.

During 2014 the Board of Directors authorized the issuance of an additional 2,000,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock in payment of deferred, current and future compensation of $480,000.

7. OPERATING LEASE

The Company leases 3,600 sq. ft. of office and warehouse space at 1550 Caton Center Drive, Suites D and E, Baltimore, Maryland, under a non-cancellable operating lease which expires in December 2014. The original base rent was $3,077 per month with a 3% annual rent escalator clause. The current monthly rent is $3,464. Rent expense, which includes the Caton Center property as well as some other short-term leases, was $20,562 and $24,825 for the periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

8. STOCK BASED COMPENSATION

During the periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 the Company issued stock in payment of services and debts as follows:

For the six month period ended June 30, 2014 the Board authorized the issuance of 15,700,000 shares of common stock in payment of services amounting to $309,500. In addition, 23,631,111 shares were issued during 2014 for stock shown as issuable as of December 31, 2013.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

10. STOCK SETTLEMENT IN PROCESS

During 2006 the Company negotiated a loan from an individual in the amount of $100,000. Under the terms of the loan it was to be repaid in full within one year together with interest at the rate of 15% per annum. The Company was unable to pay the loan when due and under the threat of litigation the note holder was given 3,500,000 shares of common stock. The stock was issued on January 28, 2010. At that time the principal, accrued interest and legal fees amounted to $163,366. Under the terms of a court ordered stipulation agreement if the note holder was unable to liquidate the stock in full payment of the stipulated amount then the Company would be obligated to issue more stock to him to make up for the shortage. As a part of the agreement the note holder is required to account for proceeds realized from the sales of stock.

During the year ended December 31, 2011, $38,788 was levied against the Company’s bank accounts as a result of a legal action brought to force collection of the balance. The note holder’s contention was that stock sales had fallen well short of the balance due and thus he was due to be paid. While the Company had a complaint that they had not been provided with any information regarding sales of stock, management was unable to stave off the forced levy. As a result of the levy the debt balance as of December 31, 2011 was reduced to $124,578.

Subsequent to June 30, 2013, the note holder reported that he had sold all of the 3,500,000 shares of the common stock noted above. After giving effect to those proceeds, and the note holder and the Company agreed to settle the remaining debt for $75,000. As a result, the Company has agreed to make monthly payments of $5,000, commencing in July 2013, until the debt is paid in full. The agreement provides that there is no interest due on this debt. As of June 30, 2014 the balance due on this agreement was $10,000.

11. CHANGE TO PRIOR FINANCIAL STATEMENT

During 2013 it was noticed that the par value of preferred stock had been incorrectly reported as $0.01 per share while the correct par value was $0.001 per share. Accordingly, an adjustment was made to decrease the total par value of preferred stock issued and increase additional paid in capital in the amount of $26,907. This adjustment had no effect on previously reported results of operations and also had no effect on the carrying value or historical costs of any assets or liabilities.

12. CONTINGENT LIABILITY

Effective January 1, 2014 the Board of Directors authorized a new employment contract with Gunther Than, CEO of View Systems, Inc. That employment contract provides that in the event of a change in control of the Board of Directors or a buyout or a takeover or substantial change of management structure Mr. Than will receive a minimum of three year’s salary plus 4.8 million shares of unrestricted stock or the equivalent in cash at Mr. Than’s direction. Mr. Than’s current base salary $240,000 per annum.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

EXECUTIVE OVERVIEW

View Systems, Inc. develops, produces and markets computer software and hardware systems for security and surveillance applications. Our digital video recorder was our first product, which we enhanced by developing interfaces with other various technologies, such as facial recognition, access control cards and control devices such as magnetic locks, alarms and other common security devices. We sold this product to various commercial entities including schools, restaurants, night clubs, car washers and car dealers (license plate recognition was incorporated into these types of installations), ranches and gas stations. We expanded our product line to include a concealed weapons detection system we call ViewScan. We have penetrated four major market segments for this product: correctional facilities, judicial facilities, probation offices and federal facilities in the Mid-Atlantic States, the West Coast and the South. We added a hazardous material first response wireless video transmitting system to our product line we refer to as Visual First Responder. The markets for these units are first responder units for agencies such as the National Guard, Coast Guard, Army, state law enforcement agencies, and fire departments. Both of these technologies were licensed from the U.S. Department of Energy's Idaho National Engineering Laboratory ("INEL"). Until 2005 we assembled all of our products in-house, but we currently contract with third party manufacturers to manufacture some components of our products.

Our strategy for 2013 for ViewScan is to extend our sales and service provisions. To increase sales we offer demonstrations of our products to potential customers in specific geographical areas and at region - specific trade shows, such as sheriff’s conventions, court administrators’ meetings, civil support team, state police and dealer shows. When a demonstration results in a sale of one of our products, then we attempt to expand that market by contacting other potential customers in the area, such as, correctional facilities, courthouses and other municipal buildings.

In the short term, management plans to raise funds through sales of our common stock for fulfillment (manufacturing, packaging and shipment), which will set the stage for future orders becoming self funding. Then the next phase of our business plan will be to raise additional funds through common stock offerings to provide working capital to finance several acquisitions and the integration of new technologies and businesses. We also intend to continue to strengthen our balance sheet by paying off debt either through exchange of equity for cancellation of debt obligations or the payment of debt obligations with cash.

CURRENT PRODUCTS AND SERVICES

ViewScan Concealed Weapons Detection System

ViewScan, which is also sold under the name “Secure Scan”, is a walk-through concealed weapons detector which uses data sensing technology to accurately pinpoint the location, size and number of concealed weapons. This walk-through portal is controlled by a master processing board and a personal computer based unit which receives magnetic and video information and combines it in a manner that allows the suspected location of the weapon to be stored electronically and referenced. Because ViewScan does not produce a graphic anatomical display of a scanned person, the Company does not believe that ViewScan is susceptible to privacy concerns raised about certain personnel scanners produced by other companies.

ViewScan products are distributed in three basic configurations; stand-alone units, portable units and integrated door systems.

Today we sell these units for an average retail price of approximately $9,000 with a one year extended warranty. We feel the new reduced price points and enhanced interface abilities will allow us to be more competitive, along with the advantages of three to four times the throughput rate, non-contact imaging and permanent visual storage, and a log of all individuals scanned. We have been making additional cost reductions through economies of scale and larger scale integration by taking advantage of ongoing computer component improvements.

3D Facial Recognition Technology - Animetrics Inc.

On August 9, 2012, we entered into a partnership with Animetrics Inc. ("Animetrics"), a leading developer of advanced 3D facial recognition and identify management solutions (the "Animetrics Agreement"). In accordance with the terms and provisions of the Animetrics Agreement, we will integrate Animetrics' next-generation 3D facial recognition technology into its concealed weapons detection systems used for security screening at correctional facilities, stadiums, courthouses, schools and other public facilities. Our ViewScan Concealed Weapons Detector is a walk-through portal which uses advanced magnetics technology to accurately pinpoint threat objects on a visual image of the subject. The system is sensitive enough to locate items such as hidden razor blades and cellular phones but will ignore common objects such as coins, keys and belt buckles. The initial objective is to integrate Animetrics' facial identify management software, the FaceR identity management solution (FIMS) onto our ViewScan, incorporating next generation facial recognition and investigative face biometric capabilities into the weapons detection and identification system. We also plan to utilize Animetrics' cloud-based FaceR FIMS and its suite of FaceR facial biometric identify and screening applications, including FaceR Mobile ID, FaceR Credential Me and ForensicaGPS across its entire portfolio of security and surveillance systems and applications.

The FIMS is deployed either via Web server or in a clod-based architecture system. Both configurations provide centralized and scalable management of highly distributed :one-to-many" identity searched in the field. FIMS utilized Animetrics' FACEngine biometric facial recognition technology that converts 2D images to accurate 3D geometrics for enhanced biometric templates. FIMS makes these 3D facial "signatures" for identification purposes available to credentialized users via any mobile or fixed digital device with internet connectivity. This powerful combination with the ViewScan delivers most advanced facial-recognition and comparison technology to personnel in the field providing accurate and fast results.

National Security Resources

On February 9, 2012, we entered into a partnership (the "Partnership") with National Security Resources, Inc., a facial recognition company ("National Security Resources"). In accordance with the Partnership, we will work together with National Security Resources to develop and deliver an integrated solution for a combined technology line. We intend to integrate National Security Resources' advanced "scan and match facial recognition" ability into our concealed weapons detection ViewScan.

Multi-Mission Mobil Video

The Multi-Mission Mobil Video (MMV) is a lightweight, wireless camera system housed in a tough, waterproof body. The camera system sends back real-time images to a computer or video monitor at the command post located outside the exclusion zone or containment area. The MMV is able to transmit high quality video in the most difficult environments. The image is received from the MMV and displayed on a monitor and can be easily recorded using a common camcorder or VCR with video input. The camera can be completely submerged for fast and easy decontamination.

The MMV also uses an Extension Link which is a separate transmitter and receiving system that increases the operating range of the MMV. The Extension Link has field-selectable channels to avoid interference at longer distances. We have also incorporated a video encryption feature that allows first responders to transmit on-scene video to the command post without the data being intercepted by unwanted parties.

The complete MMV is fully deployed by one person in a stand-alone configuration in less than 10 minutes. The system is battery operated and can operate for eight continuous hours using one set of spare camera batteries. We sell this base product for approximately $9,000 retail, but the cost can be as high as $18,500 depending on additional special features such as the extension link and encryption capabilities.

This product allows hands-free operation of the unit because it allows the person to wear the unit with a helmet mounted monocle.

ViewMaxx Digital Video System

ViewMaxx is a high-resolution, digital video recording and real-time monitoring system. This system can be scaled to meet a specific customer's needs by using anywhere from one camera up to 32 surveillance cameras per each ViewMaxx unit. The system uses a video capture card recording which translates closed-circuit television analog video data (a format normally used by broadcasters for national television programs) to a computer readable digital format to be stored on direct access digital disk devices rather than the conventional television format of video tape.

ViewMaxx offers programmable recording features that can eliminate the unnecessary storage of non-critical image data. This ability allows the user to utilize the digital disk storage more efficiently. The ViewMaxx system can be programmed to satisfy each customer's special requirements, be it coverage which is continuous, or only when events are detected. For example, it can be programmed to begin recording when motion is detected in a surveillance area, or a smaller field of interest within the surveillance area, and can be programmed to notify the user with an alarm or message.

Viewing of the stored digital images can be performed locally on the computer's video display unit or remotely through the customer's existing telecom systems or data network. It also uses a multi-mode search tool to quickly play back files with simple point and click operations. The search mode parameters can be set according to a specific monitoring need, such as: certain times of day, selected areas of interest in the field of view or breaches of limit areas. These features and abilities avoid the need to review an entire, or many, VCR tapes for a critical event.

Depending on the features of a particular system the retail price including installation can range from approximately $5,000 up to $50,000.

Additional Applications and Integration of ViewScan and ViewMaxx

We also offer integration of other products with ViewScan or ViewMaxx. Biometric verification is a system for recognizing faces and comparing them to known individuals, such as employees or individuals wanted by law enforcement agencies. This product can be interfaced with ViewScan and/or ViewMaxx to limit individual access to an area. ViewScan and/or ViewMaxx can be coupled with magnetic door locks to restrict access to a particular area. We also offer a central monitoring or video command center for ViewScan or ViewMaxx products.

The MINI

The MINI (Mobile Intelligent Network Informer) is a portable, wireless watchdog communication device that checks for intrusion into uninhabited areas such as foreclosed houses, storage spaces and vacation homes. The MINI senses motion and sends text messages to a user's cell phone. Property and remote assets may be guarded by this innovative device that requires no plug-in electricity, no physical phone line and no monitoring service. The MINI runs on batteries and one configuration of the system can even send a photo of the intruder to the user's cell phone. Camera settings can be controlled and changed via SMS commands.

We license the MINI from its manufacturer and act as a distributor. The Company established a dedicated e-commerce platform for the direct sale of this innovative product, which went online in February 2010. We are marketing the MINI to large potential users, such as real property managers, as well as retail customers through the www.minicamsim.com website. We have had non-material amounts of revenue from MINI sales thus far, which we attribute to a lack of advertising funds and market awareness.

The increase in liabilities during the six month period ended June 30, 2014 from fiscal year ended December 31, 2013 was primarily due to the increase in accounts payable and loans from stockholders.

Stockholders’ deficit increased from ($1,296,106) for fiscal year ended December 31, 2013 to ($1,303,116) for the six month period ended June 30, 2014.

PLAN OF OPERATION AND FUNDING

We have incurred losses for the past two fiscal years and had a net loss of $831,510 at June 30, 2014 and $850,625 at June 30, 2013. Our revenues from several product sales have been decreasing and some others increasing but are not sufficient to cover all of our operating expenses. Our auditors have expressed substantial doubt that we can continue as a going concern. We are continuing to push sales and control costs.

Management intends to finance our 2014 operations primarily with the revenue from product sales and any cash short falls will be addressed through equity or debt financing, if available. Management expects revenues will continue to increase but not to the point of profitability in the short term. We will need to continue to raise additional capital, both internally and externally, to cover cash shortfalls and to compete in our markets. At our current revenue levels management believes we will require an additional $1,200,000 in equity financing during the next 12 months to satisfy our cash requirements of approximately $100,000 per month for operations and to facilitate our business plan.

These operating costs include cost of sales, general and administrative expenses, salaries and benefits and professional fees related to contracting engineers. We have insufficient financing commitments in place to meet our expected cash requirements for 2014 and we cannot assure you that we will be able to obtain financing on favorable terms. If we cannot obtain financing to fund our operations in 2013, then we may be required to reduce our expenses and scale back our operations.

Going Concern

If the market price of our common stock falls below the fixed price of our registered stock offering, as in prior years we may again have insufficient financing commitments in place to meet our expected cash requirements for 2014. We cannot assure you that we will be able to obtain financing on favorable terms. If we cannot obtain financing to fund our operations in 2014, then we may be required to reduce our expenses and scale back our operations. These factors raise substantial doubt of our ability to continue as a going concern. Footnote 2 to our financial statements provides additional explanation of Management’s views on our status as a going concern. The audited financial statements contained in this Annual Report do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability of assets or the amounts of liabilities that may result should we be unable to continue as a going concern.

Our independent registered accounting firm included an explanatory paragraph December 31, 2013, in their reports on the accompanying financial statements for December 31, 2013 regarding concerns about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our financial statements contain additional note disclosures describing the circumstances that lead to this disclosure by our independent auditors.

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES

We lease 3,600 sq. ft. of office and warehouse space at 1550 Caton Center Drive, Suites D and E, Baltimore, Maryland. The base rent had been $3,077 per month with an annual rent escalator of 3%. Under the current renewal the current monthly lease payment is $3,464.

Our total current liabilities increased to $1,517,110 at the six month period ended June 30, 2014 compared to $1,419,772 at fiscal year ended December 31, 2013. As of June 30, 2014, our short and long term notes payable consist of the following:

•		We are in default of a September 18, 2009 demand loan payable to an investor which was due December 17, 2009 in the amount of $50,000. Interest has accrued at 5% per month since December 17, 2009. The loan is secured by our accounts receivable. Effective July 1, 2012 the accrual of interest was halted by agreement with the lender.
•		A term loan secured by a shareholder payable in monthly installments of $2,587 commencing December 25, 2009 but re-financed in May 2011. The loan is due in full on May 18, 2016 and interest accrued monthly at 7.5% per annum.

These operating costs include cost of sales, general and administrative expenses, salaries and benefits and professional fees related to contracting engineers. We have insufficient financing commitments in place to meet our expected cash requirements for 2013 and we cannot assure you that we will be able to obtain financing on favorable terms. If we cannot obtain financing to fund our operations in 2014, then we may be required to reduce our expenses and scale back our operations.

CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS

As a “smaller reporting company” as defined by Item 10 of Regulation S-K, we are not required to provide this information.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

We have three main products, namely the concealed weapons detection system, the visual first responder system and the Viewmaxx digital video system. In all cases revenue is considered earned when the product is shipped to the customer, installed (if necessary) and accepted by the customer as a completed sale. The concealed weapons detection system and the digital video system each require installation and training. The customer can engage us for installation and training, which is a revenue source separate and apart from the sale of the product. In those cases revenue is recognized at the completion of the installation and training and acceptance by the customer. However, the customer can also self-install or can engage another firm to provide installation and training. Each product has an unconditional 30 day warranty, during which time the product can be returned for a complete refund. Customers can purchase extended warranties, which provide for replacement or repair of the unit beyond the period provided by the unconditional warranty. Warranties can be purchased for various periods but generally they are for one year period that begins after any other warranties expire. The revenue from warranties is recognized on a straight line bases over the period covered by the warranty. Prior to the issuance of financial statements management reviews any returns subsequent to the end of the accounting period which are from sales recognized during the accounting period, and makes appropriate adjustments as necessary. Product prices are fixed or determinable and products are only shipped when collectability is reasonably assured.

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining internal control over financial reporting for our internal control system was designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Internal control over our financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that:

(1)	pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairy reflect our transactions .

(2)

provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorization of our management and directors; and

(3)	provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on our financial statements.

All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations, including the possibility of human error or circumvention through collusion of improper overriding of controls. Therefore, even those internal control systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation. Further, because of changes in conditions, the effectiveness of internal control may vary over time.

Our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2014. In making its assessment of internal control over financial reporting, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSD) in Internal-Control-Integrated Framework and implemented a process to monitor and assess both the design and operating effectiveness of our internal controls. Based on this assessment, management believes that as of June 30, 2014, our internal control over financial reporting was not effective.

We have instituted a remediation plan which involves reeducating our management, the accounting staff, and the administrative staff as to the elements of a completed sale. We increased the oversight of the process by increasing the frequency of involvement of outside accounting consultants. Internal systems are being put into place to track and document significant dates, such as delivery, installation and customer acceptance. In addition, the bookkeeping system has been modified so that all sales of extended warranties are automatically recorded as deferred revenue and that the amount of revenue that is ultimately recognized as warranty revenue is as the result of an analysis of the significant aspects of the warranty such as coverage and period.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Our management has evaluated, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer/Chief Financial Officer, changes in our internal controls over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during the first quarter of 2014. In connection with such evaluation, there have been no changes to our internal control over financial reporting that occurred since the beginning of our first quarter of 2014 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting. While there have been no changes, we have assessed our internal controls as being deficient and we have been taking steps beginning in 2014 to remedy such deficiencies.
