1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
St. Bernard Software, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the Company or St. Bernard), formerly known as Old St. Bernard Software, Inc. is a software development firm specializing in the design and production of innovative network systems management security software. The Company sells its products through distributors, dealers and original equipment manufacturers (OEM), and directly to network managers and administrators worldwide.
Merger and accounting treatment
On October 26, 2005 the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (Merger Agreement), as amended, with Sand Hill IT Security Acquisition Corp. (Sand Hill or Parent), a publicly held Delaware corporation. On July 27, 2006 stockholders of Sand Hill voted to approve the Merger Agreement and the transactions set forth therein (the Merger) in which St. Bernard Software, Inc. became the Parents wholly-owned subsidiary. Sand Hill then changed its name to St. Bernard Software, Inc.
The shares of common stock held by the former stockholders of Old St. Bernard, Inc. were converted into a total of 9,733,771 shares of Sand Hill common stock, or approximately 69.2% of the subsequently outstanding common stock of the combined company.
Upon consummation of the Merger, approximately $22.3 million was released from trust to be used by the combined company. With respect to the business combination, any public stockholder who voted against the Merger could demand that the Company redeem their shares. The per share redemption price was equal to $5.40 per share. After payments of redeemed shares of approximately $4.2 million and costs related to the Merger of approximately $1.3 million, the net proceeds received by the Company was approximately $16.8 million. The costs incurred in connection with the Merger were reflected as a reduction to the proceeds as of the effective date of the Merger.
For accounting purposes the Merger was accounted for as a reverse acquisition. Under this method of accounting, Sand Hill was treated as the acquired company. Accordingly, for accounting purposes, the Merger was treated as the equivalent of St. Bernard issuing stock for the net monetary assets of Sand Hill. The historical financial statements prior to July 27, 2006, are those of St. Bernard Software. All historical share and per share amounts have been retroactively adjusted, using a conversion factor of 0.419612277 to give effect to the reverse acquisition of Sand Hill.
These consolidated financial statements are issued under the name of the Parent, but are a continuation of the financial statements of the Company and the comparative information presented is that of the Company. The assets and liabilities of the Company are recognized and measured in these consolidated financial statements at their pre-combination carrying amounts. The retained earnings and other equity balances recognized are the retained earnings and other equity balances of the Company immediately before the business combination. The amount recognized as issued equity instruments in these consolidated financial statements was determined by adding to the issued equity of the Company immediately before the business combination. However, the equity structure appearing in these consolidated financial statements reflects the equity structure of the Parent, including the equity instruments issued by the legal Parent to affect the combination.
Effective October 17, 2006, the Company acquired AgaveOne, Inc., a Nevada corporation doing business as Singlefin. Singlefin provided on-demand security and business services to small and medium sized companies, including email filtering, web filtering and instant messaging management as a hosted or on demand service. In connection with the Singlefin acquisition, the Company paid Singlefin stockholders and option holders $0.47 million in cash, issued 471,288 shares of common stock and assumed certain stock options granted by Singlefin and converted them into options to acquire 47,423

(Unaudited)
shares of our common stock. During the nine months ended September 30, 2007, the shares issued in conjunction with the purchase were reduced by 66,667 as a result of indemnification claims. The Company also satisfied $5.5 million in Singlefin indebtedness and certain Singlefin employees received bonuses totaling $0.25 million. The aggregate value of the transaction was approximately $8.0 million.
The following pro forma consolidated information is presented as if the October 2006 acquisition of AgaveOne, Inc. occurred on January 1, 2006. The unaudited pro forma consolidated results have been prepared for comparative purposes only and do not purport to be indicative of the results of operations that would have actually resulted had the acquisition been in effect in the periods indicated above, or of the future results of operations.

Basis of presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared by us without audit and reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal and recurring adjustments and accruals) which are, in our opinion, necessary to present a fair statement of the results for the interim periods presented. The consolidated financial statements include our accounts and those of our subsidiary. All inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The statements have been prepared in accordance with the regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, but omit certain information and footnote disclosures necessary to present the statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year. The information included in this form 10-QSB should be read in conjunction with the Companys financial statements and footnotes that are included in the most recent 10-KSB.
Use of estimates
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates used in preparing the consolidated financial statements include those assumed in computing the allowance for uncollectible accounts receivable, the valuation allowance on deferred tax assets, in testing goodwill and other intangible assets for impairment, and assumptions used to determine the fair value of stock options under SFAS 123R.
Liquidity
As of September 30, 2007, the Company had $2.8 million of cash and a working capital deficit of $7.8 million. Operating losses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007 were $5.8 million and $14.9 million, respectively. As of September 30, 2007, we do not expect sufficient cash flows from operations during the next twelve months, along with our available line of credit financing and cash on hand, to cover our anticipated operating expenses plus continued development of our on-demand software as a service solution package. Although the Company had a net income of $2.2 million for the current quarter as a result of the gain from the sale of the assets of Open File Manager on August 14,

St. Bernard Software, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements-(Continued)
(Unaudited)
2007, it has incurred a net loss of $3.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2007. The net cash proceeds from the sale of Open File Manager were $6.2 million. There may be additional cash received by the company for transition services provided to the acquirer and the release of $0.5 million from an indemnification escrow. Billings from our on demand service have been lower than expected due to a several month delay in developing the new product line to effectively compete in the medium and large customer market space. In addition, the Company continued to invest in our on-demand service which includes the staffing of technical support personnel, as well as advertising expenses. If the on-demand business continues to require cash investment and does not begin to meet sales expectations, we may need to raise additional funds on acceptable terms. If we cannot do so, we will not be able to develop or enhance our products, take advantage of future opportunities or respond to competitive pressures or unanticipated requirements. Furthermore, the increased costs associated with being a public company has caused an increase in the use of cash, which includes accounting, legal, and insurance fees; and a combination of SOX 404, Board of Director, and IT consulting fees.
At September 30, 2007, our current liabilities exceeded our current assets by approximately $7.8 million and the Company had a stockholders deficit of approximately $4.0 million. Our expenses consist primarily of variable costs such as payroll and related expenses that can be modified to meet our operating needs. In addition, approximately $9.3 million of the current liability balance at September 30, 2007 consists of deferred revenues, which represents amounts that will be amortized into revenue over time, as they are earned. While there are costs that will be incurred as these revenues are earned, management believes these costs are significantly less than the approximately $9.3 million recorded as a current liability or the approximately $14.9 million recorded as a liability in total.
These circumstances raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern as of September 30, 2007. Consequently, we are actively seeking additional debt and/or equity financing. To the extent we raise additional capital by issuing equity securities, our stockholders may experience substantial dilution. A material shortage of capital will require us to take drastic steps such as reducing our level of operations or seeking an acquisition partner. In addition, the Company anticipates experiencing cash shortages mid-way through the first quarter of 2008 which could result in a breach of the Silicon Valley Bank covenant. If the Company is not able to develop new and enhanced products that achieve widespread market acceptance, it may be unable to recover product development costs, and its earnings and revenue may decline.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements-(Continued)
(Unaudited)
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern.
Cash and cash equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of 90 days or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents.
Research and development and capitalized software costs
The Companys research and development expenses include payroll, employee benefits, stock-based compensation, offshore development and other head-count related costs associated with product development and are expensed as incurred. In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 86, Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software to be Sold, Leased, or Otherwise Marketed, capitalization of costs begins when technological feasibility has been established and ends when the product is available for general release to customers. The Company has determined that technological feasibility for its products is reached after beta testing which is shortly before the products are released to manufacturing/operations. Costs incurred after technological feasibility is established are not material, and accordingly, the Company expenses all research and development costs when incurred. The technological feasibility of significant intellectual property that is purchased has been established prior to the acquisition and therefore the cost is capitalized.
Goodwill
The Company accounts for goodwill in accordance with the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 142. The Company subjects the goodwill to an annual impairment test or when events indicate that an impairment has occurred. The impairment test consists of a comparison of the estimated fair value of the reporting unit to which the goodwill has been assigned to the sum of the carrying value of the assets and liabilities of that reporting unit. The fair value used in this evaluation is based upon discounted future cash flow projections for the reporting unit. As a result of our significant underperformance relative to the expected operating results, we tested our goodwill for impairment as of September 30, 2007. Based upon the results of the impairment test, management of the Company has concluded there was no impairment of goodwill at September 30, 2007. The Company is one reporting unit for purposes of testing goodwill.
Goodwill totaled $7.6 million and $7.7 million at September 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively that arose through business acquisitions made in 2000 and 2006. The decrease in goodwill was equivalent to the fair value of 66,667 shares withheld from a stockholder as a result of indemnification claims in relation to the acquisition of AgaveOne.
Intangible assets
The Company accounts for intangible assets in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS ) No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, management reviews our long-lived asset groups, including property and equipment and other intangibles, for impairment and whenever events indicate that their carrying amount may not be recoverable. When management determines that one or more impairment indicators are present for an asset group, the Company compares the carrying amount of the asset group to net future undiscounted cash flows that
10

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements-(Continued)
(Unaudited)
the asset group is expected to generate. If the carrying amount of the asset group is greater than the net future undiscounted cash flows that the asset group is expected to generate, the Company compares the fair value to the book value of the asset group. If the fair value is less than the book value, the Company would recognize an impairment loss. The impairment loss would be the excess of the carrying amount of the asset group over its fair value. As a result of our significant underperformance relative to the expected operating results and current-period operating and cash flow losses coupled with a history of such losses, the Company tested its intangible assets for impairment during the nine months ended September 30, 2007. Based upon the results of the test, management has concluded that the intangible assets related to the acquisition of AgaveOne was impaired at September 30, 2007. Per the analysis, the Company has determined that the carrying value of the long-lived intangible assets exceeded the sum of the undiscounted cash flow, over a five year projection period, expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the asset group. As a result, an impairment charge of $3.3 million was recorded at September 30, 2007 to write-down the intangible asset to zero. See Note 2.
Stock options
Effective January 1, 2006, the Company adopted the fair value recognition provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123R (revised 2004), Share-based Payment, using the modified prospective method and therefore has not restated results for prior periods. Under this transition method, stock-based compensation expense includes compensation expense for all stock-based compensation awards granted prior to, but not yet vested as of January 1, 2006, based upon the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation. Stock-based compensation expense for all stock-based compensation awards granted after January 1, 2006 is based upon the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with SFAS 123R. Prior to the adoption of SFAS 123R on January 1, 2006, the Company recognized stock-based compensation expense in accordance with Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and provided pro forma disclosure amounts in accordance with SFAS No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation-Transition and Disclosure, as if the fair value method defined by SFAS 123 had been applied to its stock-based compensation.
The Company has non-qualified and incentive stock option plans (together, the Plans) providing for the issuance of options to employees, directors, and consultants as deemed appropriate by the Board of Directors. Terms of options issued under the Plans include an exercise price equal to the fair market value at the date of grant, vesting periods generally between three to five years, and expiration dates not to exceed ten years from date of grant. The determination of the fair market value of the Companys stock is derived using the closing sale price on the grant date.
The Company granted options during the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006, therefore all fair value calculations were done using the Black-Sholes model under the guidance of SFAS 123R. The weighted average fair value of options granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively, was calculated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following valuation assumptions:

Total stock-based compensation expense was approximately $260,000 and $487,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively, and $841,000 and $487,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The stock-based compensation expenses were charged to general and administrative expenses. The earnings per share effect as a result of the stock based compensation expense was approximately $0.02 and $0.04 for the three months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively, and $0.06 and $0.05 for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The tax effect was immaterial.

Consistent with the adoption of the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS 123R and based upon the Companys historical experience, the Company has estimated that 231,000 outstanding options under the Plans that are currently unvested will be forfeited.
The aggregate intrinsic value of options outstanding and exercisable at September 30, 2007 was approximately $39,000 and $25,000, respectively. The aggregate intrinsic value represents the total intrinsic value, based upon the stock price of $0.87 at September 30, 2007. The intrinsic value of option exercises for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007 was approximately $0 and $69,000, respectively.
As of September 30, 2007, there was approximately $4.0 million of total unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested share-based compensation arrangements granted under the Plans. The cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.13 years.
Amendment to recent stock option grants
On January 3, 2007, the Board of Directors of St. Bernard approved an amendment to certain stock option grants made by St. Bernard to certain St. Bernard employees and directors between July 14, 2006 and December 4, 2006, reducing the exercise price of the amended option grants to the closing fair market price of St. Bernard common stock on January 11, 2007. The intention of St. Bernards Board of Directors in approving the amendment is to reestablish the incentive and retentive value of the amended stock options for the affected employees and directors, as the relevant options had been left significantly out-of-the-money due to declines in the price of St. Bernard common stock. A substantial majority of the options that were amended were granted to new executives and employees that joined St. Bernard after the merger with Sand Hill IT Security Acquisition Corp. in July 2006. The reason for delaying the determination of the new grant date for the amended option grants until January 11, 2007 was to enable the market to absorb the information before setting the new exercise price. The amendment affects options to purchase a total of up to 1,055,064 shares of the Companys common stock, including options granted to the executive officers and directors of the Company. The Company expects incremental compensation expenses in relation to the amended stock option grants to total approximately $283,000.
The following table represents the St. Bernard Software employees and directors whose option grants were amended:

Employee stock purchase plan
The Companys Employee Stock Purchase Plan, or ESPP, was adopted by our board of directors in December 2006, and approved by our shareholders in June 2007 at the annual shareholders meeting.

The ESPP provides a means by which employees of the Company (and any parent or subsidiary of the Company designated by the Board of Directors to participate in the Purchase Plan) may be given an opportunity to purchase Common Stock of the Company at semi-annual intervals through payroll deductions, to assist the Company in retaining the services of its employees, to secure and retain the services of new employees, and to provide incentives for such persons to exert maximum efforts for the success of the Company. 400,000 shares have been initially reserved for issuance pursuant to purchase rights under the ESPP. A participant may contribute up to 15% of his or her compensation through payroll deductions, and the accumulated deductions will be applied to the purchase of shares on the purchase date, which is the last trading day of the offering period. The purchase price per share will be equal to 85% of the fair market value per share on the start date of the offering period in which the participant is enrolled or, if lower, 85% of the fair market value per share on the purchase date. In addition, the number of shares available for issuance under the Purchase Plan may be increased annually on the first day of each Company fiscal year, beginning in 2008 and ending in (and including) 2016, by an amount equal to the least of: (i) the difference between four hundred thousand (400,000) and the number of shares remaining authorized for issuance after the last purchase of shares, (ii) four hundred thousand (400,000) shares of Common Stock, or (iii) an amount determined by the Board of Directors or a committee of the Board of Directors appointed to administer the Purchase Plan. If rights granted under the Purchase Plan expire, lapse or otherwise terminate without being exercised, the shares of Common Stock not purchased under such rights again become available for issuance under the Purchase Plan.
For the initial offering period of March 1, 2007 to June 30, 2007, $14,540 was withheld from employee earnings for the stock purchases of 17,518 shares of Common Stock. At September 30, 2007, $17,700 has been withheld from employee earnings for stock purchases of Common Stock under the ESPP for the offering period of July 1, 2007 to December 31, 2007. Compensation expense was immaterial for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007.
Shares available for issuance under the Companys Employee Stock Purchase Plan are as follows:

Income/Loss per share
Basic income/loss per share is calculated by dividing net income/loss by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Diluted income/loss per share includes the components of basic
14
St. Bernard Software, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements-(Continued)
(Unaudited)
income/loss per share and also gives effect to dilutive common stock equivalents. Potentially dilutive common stock equivalents include stock options and warrants. A dilutive effect was calculated for the three months ended September 30, 2007 as the Company report a net income. Conversely, there was no dilutive effect calculated for the three months ended September 30, 2006 and for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006, as the Company reported a net loss in each period.
Income taxes
Deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts at each year end based on enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. Income tax expense is the combination of the tax payable for the period and the change during the period in deferred tax assets and liabilities.
New accounting standards
In June 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) ratified the consensus reached by the Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) No. 07-3, Accounting for Nonrefundable Advance Payments for Goods or Services to Be Used in Future Research and Development Activities. EITF 07-3 requires that nonrefundable advance payments for future research and development activities should be deferred and capitalized. Such amounts should be recognized as an expense as the goods are delivered or the related services are performed. It also states that entities should continue to evaluate whether they expect the goods to be delivered or services to be rendered. If an entity does not expect the goods to be delivered or services to be rendered, the capitalized advance payment should be charged to expense. EITF 07-3 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is not permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact, if any, this pronouncement will have on its financial statements.
In June 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) ratified the consensus reached by the Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) No. 06-11, Accounting for Income Tax Benefits of Dividends on Share-Based Payment Awards. EITF 06-11 requires that the tax benefit with respect to dividends or dividend equivalents for non-vested restricted shares or restricted share units that are paid to employees be recorded as an increase to additional paid-in capital. EITF 06-11 is to be applied prospectively for tax benefits on dividends declared in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2007, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact, if any, this pronouncement will have on its financial statements.
On February 15, 2007 the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. SFAS No. 159 permits all entities to choose, at specified election dates, to measure eligible items at fair value (the fair value option). A business entity shall report unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected in earnings (or another performance indicator if the business entity does not report earnings) at each subsequent reporting date. Upfront costs and fees related to items for which the fair value option is elected shall be recognized in earnings as incurred and not deferred. SFAS No. 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating whether SFAS No. 159 will have a material effect on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 157, Fair Value Measurements. This Statement defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This statement applies in those instances where other accounting pronouncements require or permit fair value measurements, the board of directors having previously concluded in those accounting pronouncements that fair value is the relevant measurement attribute. Accordingly, this statement does not require any new fair value measurements. However, for some entities, the application of this Statement will change current practice. The Company is required to adopt SFAS 157 no later than the fiscal year beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company is currently evaluating the impact, if any, this pronouncement will have on its financial statements.
On July 13, 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued FASB Interpretation (FIN) No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxesan interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109. Interpretation 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an entitys financial statements in accordance with Statement 109 and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for financial statement disclosure of tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. Additionally, Interpretation 48 provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. Interpretation 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted Interpretation 48 during fiscal year 2007. The Company did not record, and does not anticipate any adjustments resulting from the adoption of Interpretation 48.
Reclassifications
Certain amounts in the 2006 financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the 2007 classifications. These reclassifications have no effect on reported net income (loss).

straight-line method over a useful life ranging from three to six years. Amortization expense related to capitalized software was approximately $17,000 and $22,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006 and $300,000 and $75,000 for nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. Amortization for the customer related intangible is computed using the straight-line method over a useful life of five years. Amortization expense for the customer related intangible was approximately $0 for the three months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively, and $130,000 and $0 for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively.
At September 30, 2007, the management of the Company tested the intangible assets related to the acquisition of AgaveOne for impairment and concluded that an impairment charge of approximately $3.3 million was necessary per the guidance provided by FAS 144. The impairment charge consisted of approximately $3.8 million in intangible assets, offset by the related amortization of approximately $0.5 million. As a result, the net capitalized software costs and the customer-related intangibles were $2.2 million and $1.1 million, respectively. See Note 1Intangible Assets.

3. Debt
Line of Credit
The Company had a $1,250,000 line of credit with a finance company that automatically renewed every six months. The line of credit provided for advances of up to 80% of eligible accounts receivable. Interest was payable monthly at 1.5% per month (18% per annum). The agreement included a provision for a 1% annual renewal fee and a 1% per annum charge for the average daily unused portion of the line. The agreement allowed for termination without penalty but required thirty days notice. The line of credit was secured by all of the assets of the Company and all assets acquired by the Company during the term of the agreement. The Company was required to deliver all accounts receivable proceeds to the finance company upon receipt by the Company. In May 2007, the Company terminated the above detailed agreement. At September 30, 2007, the balance was zero on the line of credit with this finance company.
On May 15, 2007, the Company (St. Bernard), entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (the Loan Agreement) with Silicon Valley Bank, a California corporation (SVB). Pursuant to the terms of the Loan Agreement, SVB has agreed to provide St. Bernard with a two year revolving line of credit equal to the lesser of (i) $4,000,000 or (ii) the amount of the Borrowing Base, or eligible accounts receivable, as described in the Loan Agreement. The Loan Agreement also provides for term loans up to $2,000,000 pursuant to which St. Bernard may request up to a maximum of six term loan advances, the first of which was made available after May 15, 2007, in the amount of $1,000,000. The Loan Agreement further provides for letters of credit, advances in connection with SVB cash management services and a special reserve for foreign currency exchange contracts with SVB which in the aggregate may not exceed $250,000. The borrowing availability on the revolving line of credit is reduced by the amount of outstanding principal of any term loans, any outstanding letters of credit, any advances in connection with SVB cash management services and the amount of the reserve for foreign currency exchange contracts with SVB and is subject to the other terms and conditions described in the Loan Agreement. Advances under the revolving line of credit and the term loans shall accrue interest at a per annum rate equal to 2% above the greater of (i) SVBs announced prime rate or (ii) 7.50%.
The obligations under the Loan Agreement are secured by substantially all of St. Bernards assets other than certain stock of St. Bernards foreign subsidiary and certain intellectual property rights.
The Loan Agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants and other restrictions. The affirmative covenants include, among others, the delivery of financial statements and accounts receivables schedules to SVB, the maintenance of insurance and the maintenance of a minimum level of
18
St. Bernard Software, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements-(Continued)
(Unaudited)
tangible net worth. St. Bernard has also agreed that without the consent of SVB, it shall refrain from activities such as engaging in a merger or acquisition, incurring indebtedness, paying dividends or making distributions to its stockholders, repurchasing capital stock or making payments on subordinated debt. At September 30, 2007 the Company was in compliance with the above stated covenants and restrictions.
The Loan Agreement states that the Company will pay interest only for the first six months on Term Loan Advances outstanding. Thereafter, each Term Loan Advance will be payable in equal monthly installments of principal, plus interest, based on a 36 month amortization schedule, commencing in November 2007 and continuing on the same date of each month thereafter until the Term Loan Maturity Date of May 2009, on which date all remaining principal and accrued interest shall be paid in full.
Additionally, the Loan Agreement contains customary events of default including the following: nonpayment of principle or interest; the violation of a Loan Agreement covenant; the occurrence of a material adverse change; the attachment of a material portion of St. Bernards assets; insolvency; default by St. Bernard of any third party agreement pursuant to which the acceleration of $50,000 in principal may result; entry of a judgment equal to or greater than $50,000 against St. Bernard; material misrepresentations by St. Bernard; and the default by St. Bernard under any subordinated debt. Upon the occurrence of an event of default by St. Bernard, the applicable interest rate shall become 5% above the rate that would otherwise be applicable.
In connection with the execution of the Loan Agreement, St. Bernard issued warrants to SVB on May 16, 2007, which allows SVB to purchase up to 100,000 shares of St. Bernard common stock at an exercise price of $1.60 per share. The warrants expire on the fifth anniversary of the warrants issue date. Accordingly, the Company recorded prepaid interest expense in the amount of $91,000, based on the estimated fair value allocated to the warrants using the following assumptions; 73.56% volatility, risk free interest rate of 4.71%, an expected life of five years and no dividends. Amortization of the interest expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007 was approximately $2,000 and $7,000, respectively. Furthermore, St. Bernard has agreed to grant SVB certain piggyback registration rights with respect to the shares of common stock underlying the warrants. As of September 30, 2007, the balance on the line of credit with SVB was $1.0 million.
4. Stockholders Deficit
Warrants
As of September 30, 2007 and 2006, a total of 8,750,104 and 8,650,104 shares of common stock, respectively, were reserved for issuance for the exercise of warrants at an exercise price of $1.60, $1.85, $2.98 and $5.00 per share.
5. Related Party Transactions
During July 2007, the chief executive officer loaned the Company $15,000 pursuant to the terms of a promissory note. The note was unsecured, bore no interest, and was repaid in August 2007.
A stockholder and former member of the Board of Directors provides legal services to the Company in the ordinary course of business. Therefore, amounts due to this related partys firm exist throughout the year. Billings from the firm totaled $4,000 and $91,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively, and $641,000 and $659,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006. Amounts due at September 30, 2007 and 2006 were $425,000 and $36,000, respectively.
The Company presently occupies office space provided by an affiliate of certain officers and directors

of the Company. Such affiliate has agreed that it will make such office space, as well as certain office and secretarial services, available to the Company, as may be required by the Company from time to time. The Company has agreed to pay such affiliate $7,500 per month for such services.
6. Commitment and Contingencies
Litigation
In the normal course of business, the Company is occasionally named as a defendant in various lawsuits. On March 14, 2007, Arthur Budman filed an action against the Company in the San Diego Superior Court for the County of San Diego, asserting claims of intentional misrepresentation, negligent misrepresentation, fraudulent concealment, and negligence. A trial date has been scheduled for February 22, 2008. The Company intends to vigorously defend its interests in this matter and expects that the resolution of this matter will not have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. However, due to the uncertainties in litigation, no assurance can be given as to the outcome of these proceedings.
Miscellaneous contingency
In January 2006, an enterprise wide review of job descriptions and employee classifications was conducted by the Company. Based upon current responsibilities, certain exempt/non exempt classifications were updated. Any changes in classifications will be implemented going forward.
As a result of the update in employee classifications, there could be potential assertions from current and former employees that they were entitled to certain benefits under a non exempt classification pursuant to the Fair Labor Standards Act and state law.
In accordance with SFAS No. 5, Accounting for Contingencies, the Company has not recorded a provision since there are no pending claims and it is not probable that a claim will be asserted. The amount of any potential loss cannot be reasonably estimated.

(SCM). For the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006, approximately 94% and 99% of the Companys revenue was in North America, the remaining 6% and 1%, respectively, was disbursed over the rest of the world.
8. Asset Sale/Purchase and License Agreements
On January 29, 2007, pursuant to the terms of an Asset Sale and License Agreement signed and effective as of January 4, 2007 (the Agreement), by and between the Company and Shavlik Technologies, LLC ( Shavlik ), St. Bernard assigned and sold to Shavlik St. Bernards UpdateEXPERT and UpdateEXPERT Premium software applications and related customer and end user license agreements, software, programming interfaces and other intellectual property rights and contracts for an aggregate purchase price of $1.2 million plus 45% of any maintenance renewal fees collected by Shavlik in excess of $1.2 million for renewals invoiced by Shavlik between February 1, 2007 and January 31, 2008 (the Asset Sale). As a result of the sale, the Company realized a gain of $3.4 million primarily due to the immediate recognition of deferred revenue offset by uncollectible accounts receivable amounts.
On August 14, 2007, pursuant to the terms of a Purchase Agreement signed and effective as of August 13, 2007 (the Agreement), by and between the Company and EVault, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Seagate Technology, Inc., (EVault), St. Bernard assigned and sold to EVault St. Bernards Open File Manager (the Product) software applications, which include all of the rights, title, and interest worldwide of St. Bernard in and to (i) the Product, (ii) the Assumed Contracts, (iii) the St. Bernard Materials, (iv) all St. Bernard Intellectual Property Rights, (v) all claims of St. Bernard against third parties relating to the Purchased Assets, whether choate or inchoate, known or unknown, contingent or noncontingent, (vi) all data and information that is collected from, or on behalf of, customers of St. Bernard who are party to the Assumed Contracts (the Customer Base), the OEM Partners and any Lead, including to the extent that receipt of such information would not violate any applicable Law, (vii) all routing and billing information and components used in connection with the Assumed Contracts, and (viii) all other tangible or intangible asset of St. Bernard used in the Business and necessary for the operation or use of the Product for an aggregate purchase price of $6.9 million.

OVERVIEW
Our Business
We design, develop, and market secure content management (SCM) and policy compliance solutions to medium and enterprise class customers. These SCM solutions enable our customers to efficiently filter and manage their employee usage policy for the internet, e-mail and instant messaging (IM). We also provide an on-demand archiving solution for internet usage, e-mail and IM that supports our customers policy requirements for message retention and discovery. Our solutions are delivered as appliances and as on-demand software as a service (SaaS).
Our customers include more than 5,000 business, education, and government institutions. Our customers purchase our solutions directly from us, through our 1-tier and 2-tier reseller network, and through, original equipment manufacturers, (OEMs). Appliance purchases consist of an initial hardware purchase and software subscription, with recurring fees for data and maintenance. SaaS purchases consist of a single or multi-year subscription to the hosted services. Our primary customers are IT managers, directors, and administrators.
We invested significantly in research and development activities and for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006 we spent $4.9 million and $4.6 million, respectively, on research and development. Our research and development efforts have been focused on network based secure content management solutions and expanding our product portfolio into new delivery models, such as SaaS, and additional secure content management markets, such as messaging security.
Our Strategy
During the quarter ended December 31, 2006, we announced a strategy that focused on the secure content management (SCM) market. We implemented a significant transformation that includes the divestiture of two legacy product lines, capacity expansion of our LivePrism SaaS business, and numerous cost reduction initiatives to deliver this strategy. With most of the needed transformation complete, we announced in October 2007 our intent to deliver a hybrid secure content management product family during the first half of 2008. We believe that this hybrid product strategy will differentiate the company and enable us to grow faster than our competition. We have also commenced to realign our sales and marketing efforts to allow us to better serve medium and enterprise class customers in conjunction with the above mentioned product strategy. As we move through 2008, we will finalize the companys transformation and continue to expand our product portfolio to create additional leverage across our customer base.
Our Business Growth
We have historically grown internally and through acquisitions. On October 26, 2005 we entered into a merger agreement with Sand Hill IT Security Acquisition Corp., Sand Hill or Parent, a publicly held Delaware corporation. On July 27, 2006 stockholders of Sand Hill voted to approve the merger agreement and the transactions set forth therein in which we became the Parents wholly-owned subsidiary. Sand Hill then changed its name to St. Bernard Software, Inc.
22
The shares of common stock held by the former stockholders of the private company in the merger were converted into a total of 9,733,771 shares of our stock, or approximately 69.2% of our outstanding common stock following the merger.
Upon consummation of the merger, approximately $22.3 million was released from trust to be used by the combined company. With respect to the business combination, any public stockholder who voted against the merger could demand that we redeem their shares. The per share redemption price was equal to $5.40 per share. After payments of redeemed shares of approximately $4.2 million and costs related to the merger of approximately $1.3 million the net proceeds received by us were approximately $16.8 million. The costs incurred in connection with the merger were reflected as a reduction to the proceeds as of the effective date of the merger.
For accounting purposes the merger was accounted for as a reverse acquisition. Under this method of accounting, Sand Hill was treated as the acquired company. Accordingly, for accounting purposes, the merger was treated as the equivalent of the private company in the merger issuing stock for the net monetary assets of Sand Hill. Our historical financial statements prior to July 27, 2006, are those of the private company in the merger. All historical share and per share amounts have been retroactively adjusted, using a conversion factor of 0.419612277 to give effect to the reverse acquisition of Sand Hill.
Effective October 17, 2006, we acquired AgaveOne, Inc., a Nevada corporation doing business as Singlefin. Singlefin provided on-demand security and business services to small and medium sized companies, including email filtering, web filtering and instant messaging management as a hosted or on demand service. In connection with the Singlefin acquisition, we paid Singlefin stockholders and option holders $0.47 million in cash, issued 471,288 shares of common stock and assumed certain stock options granted by Singlefin and converted them into options to acquire 47,423 shares of our common stock. During the nine months ended September 30, 2007, the shares issued in conjunction with the purchase were reduced by 66,667 as a result of indemnification claims. We also satisfied $5.5 million in Singlefin indebtedness and certain Singlefin employees received bonuses totaling $0.25 million. The aggregate value of the transaction was approximately $8.0 million.
Our Financial Results
For the quarter ended September 30, 2007, net revenue was $4.5 million, a decrease of 21.1% over the same period in 2006. The net income for the quarter ended September 30, 2007 was $2.2 million, an increase from the third quarter of 2006 of 344.4%. Basic and diluted net income per share was $0.15 for the three months ended September 30, 2007, an increase of $0.23 from a net loss per share of $0.08 reported in the same period in 2006. The increase primarily resulted from an $8.0 million gain on the sale of our Open File Manager product line to EVault, Inc. in August 2007, offset by an increase in net operating expenses of $2.7 million. The increase in net operating expenses consisted of an impairment charge related to the intangible assets in connection with the acquisition of AgaveOne of approximately $3.3 million, offset by a decrease of $0.4 million, or 25.0%, in research and development expenses due to a decrease in payroll related expenses, resulting from the sale of the UpdateEXPERT and Open File Manager product lines. Also, there was a decrease of $0.5 million, or 22.7% for general and administrative expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2007 over the same period in 2006 largely due to decreases in legal and accounting costs, bonuses, and FAS 123R expenses. Sales and marketing expenses increased $0.2 million, or 7.7%, due to an increase in advertising expenses related to additional marketing for the LivePrism on-demand service for the quarter ended September 30, 2007 as compared to the same period in 2006. In addition, there was an increase of $0.1 million in other operating expenses.
We reported revenues of $14.9 million for the first nine months of 2007 compared to $16.5 million in the same period last year, a decrease of 9.7%; a net loss for the first nine months of 2007 of $3.5 million, compared to a net loss of $3.3 million in the same period last year; net basic and diluted loss per share for the first nine months of 2007 was $0.24, compared to $0.31 reported in the same period last year. The decrease in the basic and diluted loss per share was attributable to the $11.4 million gain from the sale of the UpdateEXPERT in January 2007 and Open File Manager in August 2007.
Cash used in operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 was $9.7 million compared to cash used during the nine months ended September 30, 2006 of $3.5 million. The increased use of cash was
23
due primarily to an increased investment in sales and marketing of $2.5 million, an increased investment in general and administrative expenses due to being a public company of $2.4 million, a reduction of accounts payable of $1.4 million, an increased investment in research and development of $0.3 million, and a decrease of $0.4 million in other operating expenses. Research, development, software license, and technical support costs for the on-demand service product group totaled $2.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2007. These costs did not exist during the nine months ended September 30, 2006.
We utilize cash in ways that management believes provide an optimal return on investment. Principal uses of our cash for investing and financing activities include new product development, acquisition of technologies, and purchases of property and equipment.
On May 15, 2007, we established a line of credit with Silicon Valley Bank, terminating our line of credit with Camel Financial. See section titled, Credit Facility for the terms of the agreement with Silicon Valley Bank. The balance on the line of credit with SVB was $1.0 million as of September 30, 2007.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2007, we continued to invest in product development. Two product extension efforts were underway during the quarter to enhance the features of iPrism version 5.0 and LivePrism.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
There are several accounting policies that are critical to understanding our historical and future performance, because these policies affect the reported amounts of revenue and other significant areas in our reported financial statements and involve managements judgments and estimates. These critical accounting policies and estimates include:
| revenue recognition; |
| allowance for doubtful accounts; |
| impairment of goodwill and long-lived assets; |
| accounting for income taxes; and |
| accounting for stock options. |
These policies and estimates and our procedures related to these policies and estimates are described in detail below and under specific areas within the discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations. Please refer to Note 1, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements of St. Bernard for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 included herein for further discussion of our accounting policies and estimates. There have been no material changes to these accounting policies during the nine months ended September 30, 2007.
Revenue Recognition
We make significant judgments related to revenue recognition. For each arrangement, we make significant judgments regarding the fair value of multiple elements contained in our arrangements, judgments regarding whether our fees are fixed or determinable and judgments regarding whether collection is probable. We also make significant judgments when accounting for potential product returns. These judgments, and their effect on revenue recognition, are discussed below.
Multiple Element Arrangements
We typically enter into arrangements with customers that include perpetual software licenses, database subscriptions, hardware appliances, maintenance and technical support. Software licenses are on a per copy basis. Per copy licenses give customers the right to use a single copy of licensed software. We make judgments regarding the fair value of each element in the arrangement and generally account for each element separately.
Assuming all other revenue recognition criteria are met, license and appliance and product revenue is recognized upon delivery in accordance with Statement of Position, or SOP, 97-2 Software Revenue
24
Recognition. Under 97-2, we have established vendor specific objective evidence, or VSOE, on each element of multiple element arrangements using the price charged when the same element is sold separately. Undelivered elements typically include subscription, maintenance and technical support and are recognized ratably over the term.
If we cannot establish fair value for any undelivered element, we would be required to recognize revenue for the whole arrangement at the time revenue recognition criteria for the undelivered element is met using Statement of Position (SOP) No. 98-9, Modification of SOP No. 97-2 Software Revenue Recognition, with respect to certain transactions.
The Fee is Fixed or Determinable
Management makes judgments, at the outset of an arrangement, regarding whether the fees are fixed or determinable. Our customary payment terms generally require payment within 30 days after the invoice date. Arrangements with payment terms extending beyond 120 days after the effective date of the license agreement are not considered to be fixed or determinable, in which case revenue is recognized as the fees become due and payable.
Collection is Probable
Management also makes judgments at the outset of an arrangement regarding whether collection is probable. Probability of collection is assessed on a customer-by-customer basis. We typically sell to customers with whom we have a history of successful collections. New customers can be subjected to a credit review process to evaluate the customers financial position and ability to pay. If it is determined at the outset of an arrangement that collection is not probable, then revenue is recognized upon receipt of payment.
Indirect Channel Sales
We generally recognize revenue from licensing of software products through our indirect sales channel upon sell-through or when evidence of an end-user exists. For certain types of customers, such as distributors, we recognize revenue upon receipt of a point of sales report, which is our evidence that the products have been sold through to an end-user. For resellers, we recognize revenue when we obtain evidence that an end-user exists, which is usually when the software is delivered. For licensing of our software to original equipment manufacturers, or OEMs, royalty revenue is recognized when the OEM reports the sale of software to an end-user customer, in some instances, on a quarterly basis.
Delivery of Software Products
Our software may be physically delivered to our customers with title transferred upon shipment to the customer. We primarily deliver our software electronically, by making it available for download by our customers or by installation at the customer site. Delivery is considered complete when the software products have been shipped and the customer has access to license keys. If an arrangement includes an acceptance provision, we generally defer the revenue and recognize it upon the earlier of receipt of written customer acceptance or expiration of the acceptance period.
Product Returns and Exchanges
Our license arrangements do not typically provide customers a contractual right of return. Some of our sales programs allow customers limited product exchange rights. Management estimates potential future product returns and exchanges and reduces current period product revenue in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 48, Revenue Recognition When Right of Return Exists. The estimate is based on an analysis of historical returns and exchanges. Actual returns may vary from estimates if we experience a change in actual sales, returns or exchange patterns due to unanticipated changes in products, competitive or economic conditions.
25
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
Management estimates potential future uncollectible accounts and recognizes expense as appropriate. The estimate is based on an analysis of historical uncollectible accounts and on a review of all significant outstanding invoices. Actual bad debts may vary from estimates if we experience a change in actual sales, returns or exchange patterns due to unanticipated changes in products, competitive or economic conditions.
Impairment of Goodwill and Long-Lived Assets
In accordance with the Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, management tests our goodwill for impairment annually and whenever events or changes in circumstances suggest that the carrying amount may not be recoverable.
We compare the implied fair value of our reporting units goodwill to its carrying amount. If the carrying amount of our reporting units goodwill exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss will be recognized in an amount equal to that excess.
Goodwill arose through business acquisitions made in 2000 and 2006. We completed the test for the goodwill that arose in 2000 during the fourth quarter of 2006, and we were not required to record an impairment loss on that goodwill. As a result of our significant underperformance relative to the expected operating results, we tested our goodwill that arose in 2006 for impairment at September 30, 2007 in accordance with SFAS No. 142. We were not required to record an impairment loss on that goodwill. The Company is one reporting unit for purposes of testing goodwill.
In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS ) No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, management reviews our long-lived asset groups, including property and equipment and other intangibles, for impairment and whenever events indicate that their carrying amount may not be recoverable. When management determines that one or more impairment indicators are present for an asset group, we compare the carrying amount of the asset group to net future undiscounted cash flows that the asset group is expected to generate. If the carrying amount of the asset group is greater than the net future undiscounted cash flows that the asset group is expected to generate, we compare the fair value to the book value of the asset group. If the fair value is less than the book value, we would recognize an impairment loss. The impairment loss would be the excess of the carrying amount of the asset group over its fair value. As a result of our significant underperformance relative to the expected operating results and current-period operating and cash flow losses coupled with the operating history of such losses, the Company tested its intangible assets for impairment during the nine months ended September 30, 2007. Based upon the results of the test, management has concluded that the intangible assets related to the acquisition of AgaveOne were impaired at September 30, 2007. Per the analysis, the Company has determined that the carrying value of the long-lived intangible assets exceeded the sum of the undiscounted cash flow, over a five year projection period, expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the asset group. As a result, an impairment charge of $3.3 million was recorded at September 30, 2007 to write-down the intangible asset to zero. See Notes 1 and 2.
Some of the events that we consider as impairment indicators for our long-lived assets, including goodwill, are:
| our significant underperformance relative to expected operating results; |
| significant adverse change in legal factors or in the business climate; |
| an adverse action or assessment by a regulator; |
| unanticipated competition; |
| a loss of key personnel; |
| significant decrease in the market value of a long-lived asset; and |
| significant adverse change in the extent or manner in which a long-lived asset is being used or its physical condition. |
26
Significant assumptions and estimates are made when determining if our goodwill or other long-lived assets have been impaired or if there are indicators of impairment. Management bases its estimates on assumptions that it believes to be reasonable, but actual future results may differ from those estimates as our assumptions are inherently unpredictable and uncertain. Managements estimates include estimates of future market growth and trends, forecasted revenue and costs, expected periods of asset utilization, appropriate discount rates and other variables.
Accounting for Income Taxes
We are required to estimate our income taxes in each federal, state and international jurisdiction in which we operate. This process requires that management estimate the current tax exposure as well as assess temporary differences between the accounting and tax treatment of assets and liabilities, including items such as accruals and allowances not currently deductible for tax purposes. The income tax effects of the differences identified are classified as current or long-term deferred tax assets and liabilities in our consolidated balance sheets. Managements judgments, assumptions and estimates relative to the current provision for income tax take into account current tax laws, our interpretation of current tax laws and possible outcomes of current and future audits conducted by foreign and domestic tax authorities. Changes in tax laws or managements interpretation of tax laws, including the provisions of the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004, and the resolution of current and future tax audits could significantly impact the amounts provided for income taxes in our balance sheet and results of operations. We must also assess the likelihood that deferred tax assets will be realized from future taxable income and, based on this assessment, establish a valuation allowance if required. As of September 30, 2007, the deferred tax assets were fully reserved. The deferred tax assets include net operating losses and may be subject to significant annual limitation under certain provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Managements determination of valuation allowance is based upon a number of assumptions, judgments and estimates, including forecasted earnings, future taxable income and the relative proportions of revenue and income before taxes in the various domestic and international jurisdictions in which we operate.
Commitments and Contingencies
Effective October 1, 2006, we adopted the provisions of FASB Staff Position (FSP) Emerging Issue Task Force (EITF) 00-19-2, Accounting for Registration Payment Arrangements. As a result we changed the manner in which we account for the warrants that were issued subject to a registration payment arrangement by Sand Hill during 2004. Pursuant to the FSP which was posted December 21, 2006, we now account for the registration rights contained in the warrants separately and measures the liability under FASB SFAS No. 5, Accounting for Contingencies and FASB Interpretation (FIN) No. 14, Reasonable Estimation of the Amount of a Loss. As a result of the application of transition guidance in the FSP, we reported a change in accounting principle through a cumulative-effect adjustment. The warrant liability originally recorded of approximately $8.1 million was transferred to additional paid in capital and retained earnings was adjusted for approximately $2.6 million, which is the difference in the carrying amount of the instrument recorded as a liability immediately prior to the adoption of the FSP and the amount reclassified to equity. We have chosen early adoption of this FSP. Pursuant to FASB SFAS No. 5, a loss contingency is to be accrued only if it is probable and can be reasonably estimated. We have determined that a loss contingency related to the registration requirements in the warrants is not probable.
In January 2006, we conducted an enterprise wide review of job descriptions and employee classifications. Based upon current responsibilities, certain exempt/nonexempt classifications were updated. Changes in classifications were implemented going forward.
As a result of the update in employee classifications, there could be potential assertions from current and former employees that they were entitled to certain benefits under a non exempt classification pursuant to the Fair Labor Standards Act and state law.
In accordance with SFAS No. 5, Accounting for Contingencies, we have not recorded a provision since there are no pending claims and it is not probable that a claim will be asserted. The amount of any potential loss cannot be reasonably estimated.
27
In the normal course of business, the Company is occasionally named as a defendant in various lawsuits. On March 14, 2007, Arthur Budman filed an action against the Company in the San Diego Superior Court for the County of San Diego, asserting claims of intentional misrepresentation, negligent misrepresentation, fraudulent concealment, and negligence. A trial date has been scheduled for February 22, 2008. The Company intends to vigorously defend its interests in this matter and expects that the resolution of this matter will not have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. However, due to the uncertainties in litigation, no assurance can be given as to the outcome of these proceedings.

In addition, as of January 2007, we no longer marketed our Open File Manager product line, causing the subscription revenue for that product to decline in the three months ended September 30, 2007, as compared to the same period on 2006. More marketing efforts were concentrated towards the iPrism and LivePrism product lines. Renewal rates for our products range from 75% to 95%.

For the three months ended September 30, 2007, the sales and marketing expenses increased 11.5%, or $0.3 million, over the same period in 2006. The increase was primarily due to an increase in advertising expenses related to the on-demand product line of $0.2 million in the three months ended September 30, 2007. In addition, management made the decision to hire additional channel sales staff as part of the expansion of the channel sales program in order to reach a broader customer base. This decision resulted in increased channel salary expenses of $0.06 million, attributed to higher base salaries. In addition, there was an increase in consulting expenses of $0.04 million due to the reorganization of our EMEA office. Sales and marketing expenses are incurred to generate billings, which are deferred and recognized according to Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP).

Research and development expense consists primarily of salaries, related benefits, third-party consultant fees and other engineering related costs. The decrease of $0.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2007 compared to the same period in 2006 was primarily due to a decrease of $0.3 million in compensation costs for the UpdateEXPERT and Open File Manager staff as a result of the sale of those product lines in January and August 2007, respectively. In addition, there was a decrease of $0.1 million in other research and development expenses. Management believes that a significant level of research and development investment is required to remain competitive and we expect to continue to invest in research and development activities.
We believe that the present level of research and development costs in the third quarter of 2007 will be sufficient in the future to keep the existing products competitive, however, additional development staff and other development resources will be required if a new product development effort is undertaken.

As a result of our significant underperformance relative to the expected operating results and current-period operating and cash flow losses coupled with the operating history of such losses, the Company tested its intangible assets for impairment during the three months ended September 30, 2007. Based upon the results of the test, management has concluded that the intangible assets related to the acquisition of AgaveOne was impaired at September 30, 2007. Per the analysis, the Company has determined that the

In addition, as of January 2007, we no longer marketed our Open File Manager product line, causing the subscription revenue for that product to decline in the nine months ended September 30, 2007, as compared to the same period on 2006.

Due to the sale of UpdateEXPERT and Open File Manager in January and August 2007, respectively, costs related to these two product lines decreased. This decrease was offset by payroll and other direct expenses related to LivePrism, a subscription only product which was launched in the first quarter of 2007. This resulted in the total costs for the two periods to remain consistent. The decrease in gross margin was due to the increased costs to support our subscription services, mostly attributable to our LivePrism product line.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) ratified the consensus reached by the Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) No. 07-3, Accounting for Nonrefundable Advance Payments for Goods or Services to Be Used in Future Research and Development Activities. EITF 07-3 requires that nonrefundable advance payments for future research and development activities should be deferred and capitalized. Such amounts should be recognized as an expense as the goods are delivered or the related services are performed. It also states that entities should continue to evaluate whether they expect the goods to be delivered or services to be rendered. If an entity does not expect the goods to be delivered or services to be rendered, the capitalized advance payment should be charged to expense. EITF 07-3 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is not permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact, if any, this pronouncement will have on its financial statements.
In June 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) ratified the consensus reached by the Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) No. 06-11, Accounting for Income Tax Benefits of Dividends on Share-Based Payment Awards. EITF 06-11 requires that the tax benefit with respect to dividends or dividend equivalents for non-vested restricted shares or restricted share units that are paid to employees be recorded as an increase to additional paid-in capital. EITF 06-11 is to be applied prospectively for tax benefits on dividends declared in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2007, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact, if any, this pronouncement will have on its financial statements.

On February 15, 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities . SFAS No. 159 permits all entities to choose, at specified election dates, to measure eligible items at fair value (the fair value option). A business entity shall report unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected in earnings, or another performance indicator if the business entity does not report earnings, at each subsequent reporting date. Upfront costs and fees related to items for which the fair value option is elected shall be recognized in earnings as incurred and not deferred. SFAS No. 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating whether SFAS No. 159 will have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 157, Fair Value Measurements. This Statement defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This Statement applies in those instances where other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements, the board of directors having previously concluded in those accounting pronouncements that fair value is the relevant measurement attribute. Accordingly, this statement does not require any new fair value measurements. However, for some entities, the application of this Statement will change current practice. We are required to adopt SFAS 157 no later than the fiscal year beginning after November 15, 2007. We are currently evaluating the impact, if any, this pronouncement will have on the financial statements.
On July 13, 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued FASB Interpretation (FIN) No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxesan interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109. Interpretation 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an entitys financial statements in accordance with Statement 109 and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for financial statement disclosure of tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. Additionally, Interpretation 48 provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. Interpretation 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006, with early adoption permitted. We adopted Interpretation 48 during fiscal year 2007. We did not record, and do not anticipate any adjustments resulting from the adoption of Interpretation 48.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash Flows
Our largest source of operating cash flows is cash collections from our customers for purchases of products and subscription, maintenance and technical support. Our standard payment terms for both license and support invoices are net 30 days from the date of invoice. The recurring revenue subscription portion of our business is a mainstay of the cash flow we generate. Our primary uses of cash for operating activities include personnel and facilities related expenditures and technology costs, as well as costs associated with outside support and services.
Cash used in operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 was $9.7 million compared to cash used during the nine months ended September 30, 2006 of $3.5 million. The increased use of cash was due primarily to an increased investment in sales and marketing of $2.5 million, an increased investment in general and administrative expenses due to being a public company of $2.4 million, a reduction of accounts payable of $1.4 million, an increased investment in research and development of $0.3 million, and a decrease of $0.4 million in other operating expenses. Research, development, software license, and technical support costs for the on-demand service product group totaled $2.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2007. These costs did not exist during the nine months ended September 30, 2006.
Cash flows provided by investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 was $7.0 million and cash used for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 was $91,000, respectively. The cash
39
provided by investing activities was primarily due to the net proceeds from the sale of UpdateEXPERT for $1.2 million and the sale of Open File Manager for $6.2 million, offset by purchases of fixed assets for $0.3 million, and additional costs related to the purchase of Singlefin for $0.1 million.
Cash flows provided by financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006 was $0.7 million and $16.6 million, respectively. The cash provided by financing activities was due primarily to an increase in the line of credit of $0.7 million and a decrease in principal payments on capitalized lease obligations of $0.1 million.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2007, the net decrease in cash was $2.0 million compared to a net increase in cash of approximately $13.0 million for the comparable period in 2006.
Credit Facility
During 2001, we entered into a short-term credit facility with Camel Financial, Inc. in the amount of $0.5 million. During 2003, the short-term credit facility was renewed and increased to $1.3 million. The credit facility automatically renewed every six months. The line of credit provided for advances of up to 80% of eligible accounts receivable. Eligible accounts receivable were determined solely by the finance company. Interest was payable monthly at 1.5% per month (18% per annum). The agreement included a provision for a 1% annual renewal fee and a 1% per annum charge for the daily average unused portion of the line. The agreement allowed for termination without penalty but required thirty days prior notice for cancellation. The line of credit was secured by all of our assets and all of the assets acquired during the term of the agreement. We were required to deliver all accounts receivable proceeds against the outstanding line of credit balance upon receipt. In May 2007, we terminated the above detailed agreement. At September 30, 2007, the balance was zero on the line of credit with this finance company.
On May 15, 2007, the Company entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (the Loan Agreement) with Silicon Valley Bank, a California corporation (SVB). Pursuant to the terms of the Loan Agreement, SVB has agreed to provide St. Bernard with a two year revolving line of credit equal to the lesser of (i) $4,000,000 or (ii) the amount of the Borrowing Base, or eligible accounts receivable, as described in the Loan Agreement. The Loan Agreement also provides for term loans up to $2,000,000 pursuant to which St. Bernard may request up to a maximum of six term loan advances, the first of which was made available after May 15, 2007, in the amount of $1,000,000. The Loan Agreement further provides for letters of credit, advances in connection with SVB cash management services and a special reserve for foreign currency exchange contracts with SVB which in the aggregate may not exceed $250,000. The borrowing availability on the revolving line of credit is reduced by the amount of outstanding principal of any term loans, any outstanding letters of credit, any advances in connection with SVB cash management services and the amount of the reserve for foreign currency exchange contracts with SVB and is subject to the other terms and conditions described in the Loan Agreement. Advances under the revolving line of credit and the term loans shall accrue interest at a per annum rate equal to 2% above the greater of (i) SVBs announced prime rate or (ii) 7.50%.
The obligations under the Loan Agreement are secured by substantially all of St. Bernards assets other than certain stock of St. Bernards foreign subsidiary and certain intellectual property rights.
The Loan Agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants and other restrictions. The affirmative covenants include, among others, the delivery of financial statements and accounts receivables schedules to SVB, the maintenance of insurance and the maintenance of a minimum level of tangible net worth. St. Bernard has also agreed that without the consent of SVB, it shall refrain from activities such as engaging in a merger or acquisition, incurring indebtedness, paying dividends or making distributions to its stockholders, repurchasing capital stock or making payments on subordinated debt. At September 30, 2007 we were in compliance with the above stated covenants and restrictions.
The Loan Agreement states that the Company will pay interest only for the first six months on Term Loan Advances outstanding. Thereafter, each Term Loan Advance will be payable in equal monthly installments of principal, plus interest, based on a 36 month amortization schedule, commencing in November 2007 and continuing on the same date of each month thereafter until the Term Loan Maturity Date of May 2009, on which date all remaining principal and accrued interest shall be paid in full.
40
Additionally, the Loan Agreement contains customary events of default including the following: nonpayment of principle or interest; the violation of a Loan Agreement covenant; the occurrence of a material adverse change; the attachment of a material portion of St. Bernards assets; insolvency; default by St. Bernard of any third party agreement pursuant to which the acceleration of $50,000 in principal may result; entry of a judgment equal to or greater than $50,000 against St. Bernard; material misrepresentations by St. Bernard; and the default by St. Bernard under any subordinated debt. Upon the occurrence of an event of default by St. Bernard, the applicable interest rate shall become 5% above the rate that would otherwise be applicable.
In connection with the execution of the Loan Agreement, St. Bernard issued warrants to SVB on May 16, 2007, which allows SVB to purchase up to 100,000 shares of St. Bernard common stock at an exercise price of $1.60 per share. The warrants expire on the fifth anniversary of the warrants issue date. Accordingly, the Company recorded prepaid interest expense in the amount of $91,000, based on the estimated fair value allocated to the warrants using the following assumptions; 73.56% volatility, risk free interest rate of 4.71%, an expected life of five years and no dividends. Amortization of the interest expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007 was approximately $2,000 and $7,000, respectively. Furthermore, St. Bernard has agreed to grant SVB certain piggyback registration rights with respect to the shares of common stock underlying the warrants. As of September 30, 2007, the balance on the line of credit with SVB was approximately $1.0 million.
Liquidity
As of September 30, 2007, the Company had $2.8 million of cash and a working capital deficit of $7.8 million. Operating losses for three and nine months ended September 30, 2007 were $5.8 million and $14.9 million, respectively. As of September 30, 2007, we do not expect sufficient cash flows from operations during the next twelve months, along with our available line of credit financing and cash on hand, to cover our anticipated operating expenses plus continued development of our on-demand software as a service solution package. Although the Company had net income of $2.2 million for the current quarter as a result of the gain from the sale of the assets of Open File Manager on August 14, 2007, it has incurred a net loss of $3.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2007. The net cash proceeds from the sale of Open File Manager were $6.2 million. There may be additional cash received by the company for transition services provided to the acquirer and the release of $0.5 million from an indemnification escrow. Billings from our on demand service have been lower than expected due to a several month delay in developing the new product line to effectively compete in the medium and large customer market space. In addition, the Company continued to invest in our on-demand service which includes the staffing of technical support personnel, as well as advertising expenses. If the on-demand business continues to require cash investment and does not begin to meet sales expectations, we may need to raise additional funds on acceptable terms. If we cannot do so, we will not be able to develop or enhance our products, take advantage of future opportunities or respond to competitive pressures or unanticipated requirements. Furthermore, the increased costs associated with being a public company has caused an increase in the use of cash, which includes accounting, legal, and insurance fees; and a combination of SOX 404, Board of Director, and IT consulting fees.
These circumstances raised substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern as of September 30, 2007. Consequently, we are actively seeking additional debt and/or equity financing. To the extent we raise additional capital by issuing equity securities, our stockholders may experience substantial dilution. A material shortage of capital will require us to take drastic steps such as reducing our level of operations or seeking an acquisition partner. In addition, the Company anticipates experiencing cash shortages mid-way through the first quarter of 2008 which could result in a breach of the Silicon Valley Bank covenant. If the Company is not able to develop new and enhanced products that achieve widespread market acceptance, it may be unable to recover product development costs, and its earnings and revenue may decline.
41
On January 1, 2007, we had cash on hand of approximately $4.8 million. During the three quarters, we utilized that cash plus, plus cash we received from the sale of UpdateEXPERT and Open File Manager, and additional debt from our credit facility to develop our on-demand services. This resulted in cash on hand of $2.8 million at September 30, 2007. Continued development of our on-demand services may require a larger cash investment than we currently anticipate. The market for St. Bernards products is intensely competitive and is likely to become even more so in the future. St. Bernard also faces increasing competition from security solutions providers who may add security modules or features to their product offerings. In addition, pricing pressures and increased competition generally could result in reduced sales, reduced margins or the failure of St. Bernards products to achieve or maintain more widespread market acceptance, any of which could have a material adverse effect on its business, results of operations and financial condition.
We have a history of losses and have not been able to achieve profitability. Our cumulative net loss was approximately $43.2 million and $39.7 million as of September 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively. There can be no assurances that we will become or remain profitable or that losses and negative cash flows will not continue to occur.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
Except for the commitments arising from our operating lease arrangements, we have no other off-balance sheet arrangements that are reasonably likely to have a material effect on our financial statements.
Adoption of Employee Stock Purchase Plan
The Companys Employee Stock Purchase Plan, or ESPP, was adopted by our board of directors in December 2006 and approved by our shareholders in June 2007 at the annual shareholders meeting. The ESPP provides a means by which employees of the Company (and any parent or subsidiary of the Company designated by the Board of Directors to participate in the Purchase Plan) may be given an opportunity to purchase Common Stock of the Company at semi-annual intervals through payroll deductions, to assist the Company in retaining the services of its employees, to secure and retain the services of new employees, and to provide incentives for such persons to exert maximum efforts for the success of the Company 400,000 shares have been initially reserved for issuance pursuant to purchase rights under the ESPP. A participant may contribute up to 15% of his or her compensation through payroll deductions, and the accumulated deductions will be applied to the purchase of shares on the purchase date, which is the last trading day of the offering period. The purchase price per share will be equal to 85% of the fair market value per share on the start date of the offering period in which the participant is enrolled or, if lower, 85% of the fair market value per share on the purchase date. In addition, the number of shares available for issuance under the Purchase Plan may be increased annually on the first day of each Company fiscal year, beginning in 2008 and ending in (and including) 2016, by an amount equal to the least of: (i) the difference between four hundred thousand (400,000) and the number of shares remaining authorized for issuance after the last purchase of shares, (ii) four hundred thousand (400,000) shares of Common Stock, or (iii) an amount determined by the Board of Directors or a committee of the Board of Directors appointed to administer the Purchase Plan. If rights granted under the Purchase Plan expire, lapse or otherwise terminate without being exercised, the shares of Common Stock not purchased under such rights again become available for issuance under the Purchase Plan.
For the initial offering period of March 1, 2007 to June 30, 2007, $14,540 was withheld from employee earnings for the stock purchases of 17,518 shares of Common Stock. At September 30, 2007, $17,700 has been withheld from employee earnings for stock purchases of Common Stock under the ESPP for the offering period of July 1, 2007 to December 31, 2007. Compensation expense was immaterial for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007.
Asset Sale/Purchase and License Agreements
On January 29, 2007, pursuant to the terms of an Asset Sale and License Agreement signed and effective as of January 4, 2007 (the Agreement), by and between the Company and Shavlik Technologies, LLC ( Shavlik ), St. Bernard assigned and sold to Shavlik St. Bernards UpdateEXPERT and UpdateEXPERT Premium software applications and related customer and end user license agreements,
42
software, programming interfaces and other intellectual property rights and contracts for an aggregate purchase price of $1.2 million plus 45% of any maintenance renewal fees collected by Shavlik in excess of $1.2 million for renewals invoiced by Shavlik between February 1, 2007 and January 31, 2008 (the Asset Sale). As a result of the sale, the Company realized a gain of $3.4 million primarily due to the immediate recognition of deferred revenue offset by uncollectible accounts receivable amounts.
On August 14, 2007, pursuant to the terms of an Asset Purchase Agreement signed and effective as of August 13, 2007 (the Agreement), by and between the Company and EVault, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Seagate Technology, Inc., (EVault), St. Bernard assigned and sold to EVault St. Bernards Open File Manager (the Product) software applications, which include all of the rights, title, and interest worldwide of St. Bernard in and to (i) the Product, (ii) the Assumed Contracts, (iii) the St. Bernard Materials, (iv) all St. Bernard Intellectual Property Rights, (v) all claims of St. Bernard against third parties relating to the Purchased Assets, whether choate or inchoate, known or unknown, contingent or noncontingent, (vi) all data and information that is collected from, or on behalf of, customers of St. Bernard who are party to the Assumed Contracts (the Customer Base), the OEM Partners and any Lead, including to the extent that receipt of such information would not violate any applicable Law, (vii) all routing and billing information and components used in connection with the Assumed Contracts, and (viii) all other tangible or intangible asset of St. Bernard used in the Business and necessary for the operation or use of the Product for an aggregate purchase price of $6.9 million. As a result of the sale, the Company realized a gain of approximately $8.0 million in August 2007, primarily due to the cash received and the immediate recognition of previously unrecognized deferred revenue.
Forward-Looking Statements
We believe it is important to communicate our expectations to our stockholders. However, there may be events in the future that we are not able to predict accurately or over which we have no control.
Certain statements contained in this report that are not historical facts, including, but not limited to, statements that can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as may, expect, anticipate, predict, believe, plan, estimate or continue or the negative thereof or other variations thereon or comparable terminology, are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, and involve a number of risks and uncertainties. The actual results of the future events described in the forward-looking statements in this interim report could differ materially from those stated in the forward-looking statements due to various factors, including but not limited to, the fact that we derive a majority of our license revenue from sales of a few product lines, our ability to manage our direct sales and OEM distribution channels effectively, risks associated with the our international sales and operations, our ability to successfully promote awareness of the need for our products and of our brand, risks associated with the IT security industry and those other risks and uncertainties detailed in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, including our Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2006 filed on April 2, 2007. In addition, there is the risk that we may not be successful in our efforts to integrate our acquisitions. Our failure to manage risks associated with our acquisitions could harm our business. A component of our business strategy is to enter new markets and to expand our presence in existing markets by acquiring complementary technologies that allow us to increase our product offerings, augment our distribution channels, expand our market opportunities or broaden our customer base. For example, we acquired Singlefin in October 2006. Acquisitions involve a number of risks, including:
| diversion of managements attention; |
| difficulty in integrating and absorbing the acquired business and its employees, corporate culture, managerial systems and processes, technology, products and services; |
| failure to retain key personnel and employee turnover; |
| challenges in retaining customers of the acquired business, and customer dissatisfaction or performance problems with the acquired firm; |
| inability to develop products or services that meet our customers needs; |
| assumption of unknown liabilities; |
43
| dilutive issuances of securities or use of debt or limited cash; |
| incremental amortization expenses related to acquired intangible assets, as well as potential future impairment charges to goodwill or intangible assets; and |
| other unanticipated events or circumstances. |
The foregoing discussion should be read in conjunction with our Financial Statements and related Notes thereto included elsewhere in this report.
You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this Report.
All forward-looking statements included herein attributable to any of us, or any person acting on our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements contained or referred to in this section. Except to the extent required by applicable laws and regulations, we undertake no obligations to update these forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this document or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.
Item 3. | Controls and Procedures |
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls
Under the supervision of and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as of September 30, 2007, the Company carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act). During the course of our evaluation, we have identified the following material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting. A material weakness is a control deficiency, or combination of control deficiencies, that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement to the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected.
Control Environment. We have not adequately maintained an effective control environment as we have not maintained a sufficient level of communication among certain members of senior management. During October 2007, we engaged outside counsel to conduct an independent investigation which was initiated to review our control over certain aspects of our information systems and allegations as to the possible unauthorized use by employees and third parties of certain of our data servers. Although the allegations proved false, management determined that there was a breakdown in communications among the CFO, the IT department, and the CEO. While we concluded that there was no fraud, no improper use of our assets and no material misstatement of our financial statements, we concluded it was reasonably possible that this control deficiency could have resulted in a misstatement to our financial statement accounts and/or disclosures that could be material to the annual or interim financial statements that would not be prevented or detected in a timely manner. Accordingly, management has concluded that this control deficiency constitutes a material weakness.
Based on the evaluation of this material weakness, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of September 30, 2007, to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SECs rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Plan for Remediation of the Material Weakness in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
During the fourth quarter 2007, management has begun reviewing its communication processes as they relate to certain internal agreements, arrangements, and transactions between its employees and third
44
parties. Management intends to educate and train its employees regarding established and new polices pertaining to arrangements, agreements, and transactions that require recording in the financial records and disclosure in its financial statements to prevent or detect in a timely manner such occurrences in the future.
Internal Control over Financial Reporting
During the period covered by this report, there have been no changes in the Companys internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect the Companys internal control over financial reporting.
Item 1. | Legal Proceedings |
In the normal course of business, the Company is occasionally named as a defendant in various lawsuits. On March 14, 2007, Arthur Budman filed an action against the Company in the San Diego Superior Court for the County of San Diego, asserting claims of intentional misrepresentation, negligent misrepresentation, fraudulent concealment, and negligence. A trial date has been scheduled for February 22, 2008. The Company intends to vigorously defend its interests in this matter and expects that the resolution of this matter will not have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. However, due to the uncertainties in litigation, no assurance can be given as to the outcome of these proceedings.
