DYNAMICS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes

Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
1.
ORGANIZATION,
BUSINESS OVERVIEW, AND GOING CONCERN
Organization
and Business Overview
The
consolidated financial statements presented are those of Remote Dynamics, Inc.
and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, BounceGPS, Inc. (formerly known as Huron
Holdings, Inc.) and HighwayMaster of Canada, LLC.
Remote
Dynamics, Inc., a Delaware Corporation, (“Remote Dynamics”, “Company” and/or
“We”) was originally incorporated on February 3, 1994. We market, sell and
support automatic vehicle location (“AVL”) and mobile resource management
solutions targeting companies that operate private vehicle fleets. Our AVL
solutions are designed for fleets of vehicles or equipment within diverse
industry vertical markets such as construction, field services, distribution,
limousine, electrical, plumbing, waste management, and government. Our core
technology, telematics, combines wireless communications, GPS location
technology, geospatial solutions and vehicle data integration with a
web-accessible application that aids in the optimization of remote business
solutions. We believe our fleet management solution contributes to increased
operator efficiency by improving the productivity of mobile workers through
real-time position reports, route-traveled information, and exception based
reporting designed to highlight mobile workforce inefficiencies. This in-depth
reporting enables our customers to correct those inefficiencies and deliver
cost
savings to their bottom line.
We
commercially introduced our current AVL product, REDIview, in 2005. REDIview
was
designed with a flexible architecture to accommodate expected additional
functional requirements that will be required to effectively compete in the
marketplace.
Our
REDIview product line forms the basis of our current business plan.
We
expect
this product line to provide the foundation for a growth in revenues and, if
our
revenues grow as we anticipate, ultimately profitability.
We do
not expect to achieve profitability or positive cash flow for 2008. Our
plans for 2008 and 2009 include continuing to grow our sales staff as revenues
allow and managing our indirect sales channel partners in an effort to grow
out
recurring revenue. However, there can be no assurance that we will achieve
our
sales targets or our targeted operating levels for 2008 and 2009. Failure
to do so may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition
and results of operations. Moreover, despite actions to increase revenue, reduce
operating costs and to improve profitability and cash flow, our operating losses
and net operating cash outflows will continue into at least the fourth quarter
of 2008.
August
2008 Reverse Stock Split
On
August
13, 2008, we amended our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation
to
(i) effect a one-for-four hundred reverse stock split of our common stock and
(ii) authorize (after giving effect to the reverse stock split) 5,000,000,000
authorized shares of our common stock having a par value of $0.0001 per share.
All equity transactions have been retroactively restated to reflect these
changes.
Share
Exchange Agreement
Huron
Holdings, Inc., a Nevada Corporation, (“HHI”) was originally incorporated on
December 15, 1999. HHI provided local courier delivery services to commercial
and residential locations in the Phoenix area. HHI utilized a fleet of
delivery vans to perform these services on a contract basis for international
based shipping and logistics companies. On June 30, 2006, HHI purchased certain
assets (referred to as “BounceGPS”) from DataLogic International, Inc. On July
17, 2006, HHI changed its name to BounceGPS, Inc. (“BounceGPS”).
On
November 30, 2006, Remote Dynamics entered into a Share Exchange Agreement
with
Bounce Mobile Systems, Inc. (“BMSI”). Pursuant to the Share Exchange Agreement,
Remote Dynamics agreed to acquire from BMSI 100% of the capital stock of
BounceGPS, a provider of mobile asset management solutions, in exchange for
5,000 shares of Remote Dynamics’ newly authorized series C convertible preferred
stock, a Series B Note in the principal amount of $660,000, a Series B OID
Note
in the principal amount of $264,000, an E-7 Warrant to purchase 1,547 shares
of
Remote Dynamics’ common stock, and a F-4 Warrant to purchase 1,547 shares of
Remote Dynamics’ common stock.
As
a
result of the securities issued to BMSI in the Share Exchange Agreement and
Note
and Warrant Purchase Agreement transactions, BMSI obtained and currently has
effective control of Remote Dynamics’ board of directors, management, 98.6% of
the voting power of Remote Dynamics’ common stock outstanding, and beneficial
ownership of approximately 62.2% of Remote Dynamics’ common stock (on a
as-converted, fully diluted basis). Accordingly, the acquisition has been
treated as a reverse merger in accordance with FAS 141 “Accounting for Business
Combinations” with BounceGPS considered the accounting acquirer. Accordingly,
BounceGPS is deemed to be the purchaser and surviving company for accounting
purposes and its net assets are included in the balance sheet at their
historical book values and the results of operations of BounceGPS have been
presented for the comparative prior period.
The
results of operations of Remote Dynamics are included in our financial
statements subsequent to December 4, 2006 with the purchase price allocated
to
the acquired assets and liabilities of Remote Dynamics as of December 4, 2006.
On
December 4, 2006, Remote Dynamics consummated the Share Exchange Agreement
and
acquired
100%
of
the capital stock of BounceGPS commensurate with Remote Dynamics receiving
a
capital infusion from BMSI and other third parties.
Going
Concern
We
have
incurred significant operating losses since our inception, and these losses
will
continue for the near future. We may not ever achieve profitability. Even if
we
do achieve profitability, we may not be able to sustain or increase profits
on a
quarterly or annual basis. For 2007 and 2006, our independent registered public
accounting firm issued an opinion on our financial statements which included
an
explanatory paragraph expressing substantial doubt about our ability to continue
as a going concern.
We
do not
expect to achieve profitability for 2008 and we do not expect to achieve
positive operating cash flow until at least the fourth quarter of 2008.
Our plans for 2008 include increasing our sales staff and sales channel
development in an effort to build recurring revenue and continuing to identify
additional operating cost reductions. However, there can be no assurance that
we
will achieve our sales targets or our targeted operating results for 2008 and
2009. Failure to do so may have a material adverse effect on our business,
financial condition and results of operations. Moreover, despite actions to
increase revenue, to reduce operating costs and to improve profitability and
cash flow, our operating losses and net operating cash outflows will continue
into at least the fourth quarter of 2008.
Critical
success factors in our plans to achieve positive cash flow from operations
include:
·
|
Ability
to increase sales of the REDIview product line.
|
·
|
Significant
market acceptance of our product offerings from new customers, including
our REDIview product line, in the United States.
|
·
|
Maintaining
and expanding our direct sales channel.
|
·
|
Training
and development of new sales staff.
|
There
can
be no assurances that any of these success factors will be realized or
maintained.
We
had a
working capital deficit of $3.1 million, excluding the gross amount of our
outstanding secured convertible notes of $9.7 million, as of September 30,
2008.
We believe that we will have sufficient capital to fund our ongoing operations
through 2009, assuming that we are able to meet our sales targets and operating
cost reduction plans and to negotiate acceptable payment arrangements with
our
senior security holders, vendors and other creditors. The sufficiency of our
cash resources depends to a certain extent on general economic, financial,
competitive or other factors beyond our control.
We
do not
currently have any arrangements for additional financing and we may not be
able
to secure additional debt or equity financing on terms acceptable to us, or
at
all, at the time when we need such financing. Further, our ability to secure
certain types of additional financings is restricted under the terms of our
existing financing arrangements. There can be no assurance that we will be
able
to consummate a transaction for additional capital prior to substantially
depleting our available cash reserves, and our failure to do so may force us
to
restructure, file for bankruptcy, sell assets or cease operations.
As
of
November 14, 2008, approximately $2,205,865 in principal amount of our
outstanding Series A Notes has reached their maturity date and is due and
payable. In February, 2008, holders of $1,492,799 principal amount of the Series
A Notes agreed to extend the principal payment schedule and maturity date of
the
notes until August 31, 2009. As extended, payments under the notes will be
due
on a monthly basis (subject to deferral at the holder’s option) and may be made
in the form of shares of our common stock eligible for resale pursuant to Rule
144 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
We
have
failed to comply with certain of our other obligations relating to our secured
convertible notes, including our failure to make scheduled principal payments
and to register for resale the shares of common stock underlying the notes
and
warrants issued in the related private placements. The notes provide for a
default interest rate of 10% per annum on the outstanding principal amount
of
the notes for periods in which certain specified events of default occur and
are
continuing and for liquidated damages for non-compliance with our registration
obligations. As of September 30, 2008, we have accrued $1,368,320 in default
interest and liquidated damages under our secured convertible notes.
Our
non-compliance with the terms of the notes also exposes us to the risk that
our
note holders could seek to exercise prepayment or other remedies under the
notes. We have received notices of default from two holders of our Series A
Notes. The notices demand immediate payment in cash of
$613,056. To date, we have made no payment in respect of the note holder
demands and they remain outstanding.
In
March,
2008, we resumed making payments to certain of our note holders of amounts
due
under the notes by issuing shares of our common stock under the terms of the
notes. Through the first nine months of 2008, we issued 2,601,864 shares of
common stock as partial principal payments on the Series A Notes in satisfaction
of $495,156 of obligations due under the notes. Additionally, we issued
1,240,060 shares of common stock as partial payments on the Series B Notes
in
satisfaction of $246,897 of obligations due under the notes. We expect to issue
additional shares of our common stock in payment of amounts due under the notes
during the remainder of 2008 and thereafter. In general, the shares issued
are
available for immediate resale by the holders in accordance with Rule 144 under
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
We
do not
currently have the cash on hand to repay amounts due under our secured
convertible notes if the note holders elect to exercise their repayment or
other
remedies. If our efforts to restructure or otherwise satisfy our obligations
under the notes are unsuccessful
,
and
we
are unable to raise enough money to cover the amounts payable under the notes,
we may be forced to restructure, file for bankruptcy, sell assets or cease
operations.

Basis
of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies
Basis
of Presentation
The
unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance
with the instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all
footnote disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in
the
United States of America. These consolidated financial statements should be
read
in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and notes
thereto in our Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31,
2007. The accompanying consolidated financial statements reflect all
adjustments, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair
presentation of our financial position, results of operations and cash flows
for
the interim periods in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States of America. The results for any interim period are not
necessarily indicative of the results for the entire fiscal year. Certain prior
year amounts have been reclassified to conform to current year
presentation.
Principles
of Consolidation
Our
consolidated financial statements include our accounts and those of our wholly
owned subsidiaries. Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated
in consolidation.
Estimates
Inherent in the Preparation of Financial Statements
The
preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts
of
assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at
the
date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of
revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates
include the collectibility of accounts receivable and lease receivables, the
valuation of goodwill and intangibles, the valuation of common and preferred
stock, the valuation of convertible notes payable, and the valuation allowance
of the deferred tax asset. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.

We
recognize revenue when earned in accordance with the applicable accounting
literature including: EITF No. 00-21, “Revenue Arrangements With Multiple
Deliverables”, Statement of Position 97-2, “Software Revenue Recognition”, and
Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101, “Revenue Recognition in Financial
Statements”, as amended by Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104, “Revenue
Recognition in Financial Statements”. Revenue is recognized when the following
criteria are met: there is persuasive evidence that an arrangement exists,
delivery has occurred and all obligations under such arrangement have been
fulfilled, the price is fixed and determinable and collectibility is reasonably
assured.
Initial
sale proceeds received under multiple-element sales arrangements that require
us
to deliver products and services over a period of time and which are not
determined by us to meet certain criteria are deferred. All sales proceeds
related to delivered products are deferred and recognized over the contract
life
that typically ranges from one to five years. Product sales proceeds recognized
under this method are portrayed in the accompanying Consolidated Statement
of
Operations as “Ratable product revenues.” The related deferred revenue is
classified as a current and long term liability in the Consolidated Balance
Sheets under the captions “Deferred product revenues - current portion” and
“Deferred product revenues non-current portion.” If the customer relationship is
terminated prior to the end of the customer contract term, such deferred sales
proceeds are recognized as revenue in the period of termination. Under sales
arrangements, which initially meet the earnings criteria described above,
revenues are recognized upon shipment of the products or upon customer
acceptance of the delivered products if terms of the sales arrangement give
the
customer the right of acceptance.
Service
revenue generally commences upon product installation and customer acceptance
and is billed and recognized during the period such services are
provided.
We
provide lease financing to certain customers of our REDIview and legacy
products. Leases under these arrangements are classified as sales-type leases
or
operating leases. These leases typically have terms of one to five years, and
all sales type leases are discounted at interest rates ranging from 14% to
18%
depending on the customer’s credit risk. The net present value of the lease
payments for sales-type leases is recognized as product revenue and deferred
under our revenue recognition policy described above. Income from operating
leases is recognized ratably over the term of the leases.
Shipping
and Handling Fees and Costs
We
record
amounts billed to customers for shipping and handling and related costs incurred
for shipping and handling as components of “Product revenues” and “Cost of
product revenues” respectively.
Deferred
Product Costs
We
defer
certain product costs (generally consisting of the direct cost of product sold
and installation costs) for our sales contracts determined to require deferral
accounting. The deferred costs are classified as a current and long -term asset
on the balance sheet under the captions “Deferred product costs - current
portion” and “Deferred product costs non-current portion”. Such costs are
recognized over the longer of the term of the service contract or the estimated
life of the customer relationship and are portrayed in the accompanying
Consolidated Statements of Operations as “Ratable product costs.” Such terms
range from one to five years. If the customer relationship is terminated prior
to the end of the estimated customer relationship period, such costs are
recognized in the period of termination.
Financial
Instruments
We
consider all liquid interest-bearing investments with a maturity of ninety
days
or less at the date of purchase to be cash equivalents. Short-term investments
mature between ninety days and one year from the purchase date. The Company
maintains its cash balances at credit-worthy financial institutions that are
insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") up to $250,000.
The
carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, notes
payable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximates fair value
because of their short-term maturity.
Allowance
for Doubtful Accounts
We
use
estimates in determining the allowance for doubtful accounts based on historic
collection experience, current trends and a percentage of the accounts
receivable aging categories. In determining these percentages we review
historical write-offs, including comparisons of write-offs to provisions for
doubtful accounts and as a percentage of revenues and monitor collections
amounts and statistics.

Business
and Credit Concentrations
We
continuously monitor collections and payments from our customers and maintain
a
provision for estimated accounts receivable that may eventually become
uncollectible based upon historical experience and specific customer
information. There is no guarantee that we will continue to experience the
same
credit loss history in future periods. If a significant change in the liquidity
or financial condition of a large customer or group of customers were to occur,
it could have a material adverse affect on the collectibility of our accounts
receivable and future operating results.
Inventories
Inventories
consist primarily of component parts and finished products that are valued
at
the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined using the first-in, first-out
(FIFO) method. The Company records a write-down for excess and obsolete
inventory based on usage history and specific identification criteria. There
is
a risk we will forecast demand for our products and market conditions
incorrectly and maintain excess inventories. Therefore, there can be no
assurance that we will not maintain excess inventory and incur inventory lower
or cost or market charges in the future.
Property
and Equipment
Property
and equipment is stated at cost and depreciated on a straight-line basis over
the estimated useful lives of the various classes of assets, which generally
ranged from two to seven years. After the reverse merger transaction and the
associated purchase accounting, the new fair value of Remote Dynamic’s property
and equipment is being depreciated on a straight-line basis over the estimated
applicable remaining useful lives which generally ranged from one to five years.
Maintenance and repairs costs are expensed as incurred.
Valuation
of Long-Lived Assets
We
evaluate the recoverability of our long-lived assets under Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or
Disposal of Long-Lived Assets” (“SFAS 144”). SFAS 144 requires us to review for
impairment of our long-lived assets, whenever events or changes in circumstances
indicate that the carrying amount of an asset might not be recoverable and
exceeds its fair value. Impairment evaluations involve our estimates of asset
useful lives and future cash flows. When such an event occurs, we estimate
the
future cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset and its eventual
disposition. If the undiscounted expected future cash flows are less than the
carrying amount of the asset and the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its
fair value, an impairment loss is recognized. We utilize an expected present
value technique, in which multiple cash flow scenarios that reflect the range
of
possible outcomes and a risk-free rate are used, to estimate fair value of
the
asset.
We
assess
the impairment in value to our long-lived assets whenever events or
circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable.
Significant factors, which would trigger an impairment review, include the
following:
·
|
significant
negative industry trends,
|
·
|
significant
changes in technology,
|
·
|
significant
underutilization of the asset, and
|
·
|
significant
changes in how the asset is used or is planned to be
used.
|
Goodwill
and Other Intangibles
We
test
our goodwill for impairment on an annual basis, or between annual tests if
it is
determined that a significant event or change in circumstances warrants such
testing, in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 142, “Goodwill and Other
Intangible Assets”, (“SFAS 142”) which requires a comparison of the carrying
value of goodwill to the fair value of the reporting unit. If the fair value
of
the reporting unit is less than the carrying value of goodwill, an adjustment
to
the carrying value of goodwill is required. See Note 1 and Note 4 for further
discussion on goodwill and other intangible assets impairment.
Income
Taxes
The
Company accounts for income taxes under the provisions of SFAS No. 109,
Accounting
for Income Taxes
.
Under
SFAS No. 109, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for future
tax
benefits or consequences attributable to temporary differences between the
financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and
their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured
using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in
which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.
A
valuation allowance is provided for significant deferred tax assets when it
is
more likely than not that such assets will not be realized through future
operations.
Stock-Based
Compensation
In
December of 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued FAS
123R, which applies to transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity
instruments for goods or services and also applies to liabilities an entity
may
incur for goods or services that are based on the fair value of those equity
instruments. For any unvested portion of previously issued and outstanding
awards, compensation expense is required to be recorded based on the previously
disclosed FAS 123 methodology and amounts. Prior periods presented are not
required to b
e
restated. We adopted FAS 123R as of January 1, 2006 and applied the standard
using the modified prospective method. Remote Dynamics extinguished all prior
stock options upon emergence from bankruptcy effective July 2, 2004 and have
not
issued any new stock options beyond that date.
Beneficial
Conversion Feature
From
time
to time, the Company has debt with conversion options that provide for a rate
of
conversion that is below market value. This feature is normally characterized
as
a beneficial conversion feature ("BCF"), which is recorded by the Company
pursuant to Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) Issue No. 98-5 ("EITF 98-5"),
Accounting
for Convertible Securities with Beneficial Conversion Features or Contingently
Adjustable Conversion Ratios,
and EITF
Issue No. 00-27,
Application
of EITF Issue No. 98-5 to Certain Convertible Instruments.
If a BCF
exists, the Company records it as a debt discount. Debt discounts are amortized
to interest expense over the life of the debt on a straight-line basis, which
approximates the effective interest method.
Issuance
of Shares for Non-Cash Consideration
The
Company accounts for the issuance of equity instruments to acquire goods and/or
services based on the fair value of the goods and services or the fair value
of
the equity instrument at the time of issuance, whichever is more reliably
determinable. The Company's accounting policy for equity instruments issued
to
consultants and vendors in exchange for goods and services follows the
provisions of EITF Issue No. 96-18,
Accounting
for Equity Instruments That are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring,
or
in Conjunction with Selling, Goods or Services
and EITF
Issue No. 00-18,
Accounting
Recognition for Certain Transactions Involving Equity Instruments Granted to
Other Than Employees.
The
measurement date for the fair value of the equity instruments issued is
determined at the earlier of (i) the date at which a commitment for performance
by the consultant or vendor is reached or (ii) the date at which the consultant
or vendor's performance is complete. In the case of equity instruments issued
to
consultants, the fair value of the equity instrument is recognized over the
term
of the consulting agreement.
Earnings
Per Share
The
Company adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 128,
Earnings
Per Share
("EPS").
SFAS No. 128 provides for the calculation of basic and diluted earnings or
loss
per share. Basic loss per share includes no dilution and is computed by dividing
income or loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number
of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted loss per share reflects
the
potential dilution of securities that could share in the earnings or losses
of
the entity. Such amounts include shares potentially issuable pursuant to the
Notes and the attached warrants and the convertible preferred stock (see Note
6). For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, basic
and
diluted loss per share are the same as the potentially dilutive shares were
excluded from diluted loss per share as their effect would be anti-dilutive
for
the year then ended.
The
securities listed below were not included in the computation of diluted earnings
per share as the effect from their conversion would have been
antidilutive:

Recent
Accounting Pronouncements
Financial
Accounting Standards No. 159 (“FAS 159”)
In
February 2007, the FASB issued FAS 159, The Fair Value Option for
Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities, or FAS 159. FAS 159
permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain
other items at fair value. The objective of the guidance is to improve financial
reporting by providing entities with the opportunity to mitigate volatility
in
reported earnings caused by measuring related assets and liabilities differently
without having to apply complex hedge accounting provisions. FAS 159 is
effective as of the beginning of the first fiscal year that begins after
November 15, 2007. Early adoption is permitted as of the beginning of the
fiscal year beginning on or before November 15, 2007, provided the
provisions of FAS 157 are applied. The adoption of FAS 159 did not have a
material impact on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.
Financial
Accounting Standards No. 141 (R) (“FAS 141”)
In
December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141(R), Business Combinations. SFAS
No.
141(R) establishes principles and requirements for how an acquirer recognizes
and measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets acquired,
the
liabilities assumed, and any non-controlling interest in the acquiree and
recognizes and measures the goodwill acquired in the business combination or
a
gain from a bargain purchase. SFAS No. 141(R) also sets forth the
disclosures required to be made in the financial statements to evaluate the
nature and financial effects of the business combination. SFAS No. 141(R)
applies prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition date
is
on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on
or
after December 15, 2008. Accordingly, the Company will adopt this standard
in
fiscal 2009. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact
of the adoption of SFAS 141(R) on its consolidated financial
statements.
Financial
Accounting Standards No. 160 (“FAS 160”)
In
December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, Non-controlling Interests in
Consolidated Financial Statements, an amendment of ARB No. 51. SFAS 160
will change the accounting and reporting for minority interests, which will
be
recharacterized as non-controlling interests (NCI) and classified as a component
of equity. This new consolidation method will significantly change the
accounting for transactions with minority interest
holders. SFAS 160 requires retroactive adoption of the
presentation and disclosure requirements for existing minority interests. All
other requirements of SFAS 160 shall be applied
prospectively. SFAS 160 is effective for fiscal years beginning
after December 15, 2008 and, as such, the Company will adopt this standard
in fiscal 2009. The Company is currently evaluating the potential
impact of the adoption of SFAS 160 on its consolidated financial
statements.
Financial
Accounting Standards No. 161 (“FAS 161”)
In
March
2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, "Disclosures about Derivative Instruments
and Hedging Activities" ("FAS 161"). FAS 161 is intended to improve financial
reporting about derivative instruments and hedging activities by requiring
enhanced disclosures to enable investors to better understand their effects
on
an entity's financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. The
provisions of FAS 161 are effective for the quarter ending February 28, 2009.
The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the provisions of FAS
161.
Financial
Accounting Standards No. 162 (“FAS 162”)
In
May
2008, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 162,
"The
Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles"
("FAS
162"). FAS 162 is effective 60 days following the SEC's approval of the Public
Company Accounting Oversight Board Auditing amendments to AU Section, 411 The
Meaning of "Present Fairly in Conformity with Generally Accepted Accounting
Principles". The statement is intended to improve financial reporting
by
identifying
a consistent hierarchy for selecting accounting principles to be used in
preparing financial statements that are presented in conformity with U.S.
generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). The Company has not completed
its evaluation of the effects, if any, that FAS 162 may have on its consolidated
financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

Notes
Payable & Securities Purchase Agreements
HFS
Note Payable
In
2004,
Remote Dynamics issued a $2,000,000 convertible promissory note to HFS
Minorplanet Funding LLC (“HFS”). The principal balance is due 36 months from the
date of funding, with an annual interest rate of 12%.
As
described in Note 1, as part of the purchase accounting for the reverse merger
transaction, the debt was adjusted to fair value. Accordingly, the difference
between the estimated fair value of $150,000 and the face amount of the note
payable totaling $2,000,000 is recorded as a debt discount. The debt discount
was accreted to interest expense over the remainder of the term of the
note.
On
May 8,
2007, Remote Dynamics and HFS completed an exchange transaction in which: (a)
the $2,000,000 convertible promissory note originally issued by the Company
to
HFS was cancelled, and (b) Remote Dynamics issued to HFS (i) $1,000,000
principal amount of our series B subordinated secured convertible promissory
notes, (ii) $400,000 principal amount of our original issue discount series
B
subordinated secured convertible promissory notes, (iii) our series E-7 warrants
to purchase 2,344 shares of our common stock and (iv) our series F-4 warrants
to
purchase 2,344 shares of our common stock. We recorded a loss on extinguishment
of debt totaling $107,000 during the second quarter of 2007 in relation to
the
exchange.
DataLogic
Note Payable
On
June
30, 2006, BounceGPS issued a $250,000 note to DataLogic International, Inc.
in
conjunction with the acquisition described in Note 1. The note has a term of
2
years with an annual interest rate of 9%. Principal payments of $31,250 were
scheduled to commence October 1, 2006 and quarterly thereafter. Interest is
payable quarterly. BounceGPS is currently in default as principal and interest
payments have not been made in accordance with the note agreement. The Company
has accrued $60,879 of interest expense as of September 30, 2008. The $250,000
principal balance has been classified as current on the accompanying
consolidated balance sheet due to the default mentioned above. Keith Moore,
Director and Audit Committee Chair of the Company, was previously the CEO and
Chairman of DataLogic International, Inc. See Note 9 for further discussion
on
related party transactions.
Series
A Note Financing
On
February 24, 2006, Remote Dynamics closed a Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement
with certain institutional investors pursuant to which Remote Dynamics sold
$5.75 million of its series A senior secured convertible notes and original
issue discount series A notes (collectively, “Series A Notes”) in a private
placement transaction. In the private placement, Remote Dynamics received
proceeds of approximately $4.1 million in cash (after deducting brokers’
commission but before payment of legal and other professional fees, the 15%
original issue discount of $750,000 and the tendering of 50 shares of their
650
shares Series B preferred convertible stock
with
an
aggregate
face
value of $500,000 by our sole series B preferred convertible
stockholder).
The
Series
A
Notes are secured by substantially all of the Company’s assets. The Series A
Notes mature 24 months from issuance and are convertible at the option of the
holder into our common stock at a conversion price of $0.0051 per share, subject
to adjustment for stock splits and combinations, certain dividends and
distributions, reclassification, exchange or substitution, reorganization,
merger, consolidation or sales of assets; issuances of additional shares of
common stock, and issuances of common stock equivalents. Beginning on September
1, 2006 and continuing thereafter on the first business day of each month,
Remote Dynamics must pay an amount to each holder of a Series A Note equal
to
1/18th of the original principal payment of the note; provided, that if on
any
principal payment date the outstanding principal amount of the note is less
than
such principal installment amount, then Remote Dynamics must pay to the holder
of the note the lesser amount. Remote Dynamics may make such principal
installment amounts in cash or in registered shares of its common stock. If
paid
in common stock, certain conditions must be satisfied, and the number of
registered shares to be paid to the holder must be an amount equal to the
principal installment amount divided by eighty percent (80%) of the average
of
the closing bid price for the ten (10) trading days immediately preceding the
principal payment date.
The
purchasers of the Series A Notes (and the placement agent in the transaction)
received the following common stock purchase warrants:
·
|
Series A-7
warrants to purchase 1,031 shares in the aggregate of common stock
at an
initial exercise price of
$8,000
per share subject to adjustment for stock splits and combinations,
certain
dividends and distributions, reclassification, exchange or substitution,
reorganization, merger, consolidation or sales of assets; issuances
of
additional shares of common stock, and issuances of common stock
equivalents. The exercise price of the series A-7 warrants was $0.0051
as
of September 30, 2008. The series A-7 warrants can be exercised on
a
cashless basis beginning one year after issuance if (i) the per share
market value of a share of our common stock (either the volume the
weighted average price or the fair market value as determined by
an
independent appraiser) is greater than the warrant price; and (ii)
a
registration statement for the warrant stock is not then in effect.
The
series A-7 warrants are exercisable for a seven-year period from
the date
of issuance. 95 of these warrants are exercisable over 5
years.
|
·
|
Series B-4
warrants to purchase 688 shares in the aggregate of common stock
at an
initial exercise price of
$18,000
per share subject to adjustment for stock splits and combinations,
certain
dividends and distributions, reclassification, exchange or substitution,
reorganization, merger, consolidation or sales of assets; issuances
of
additional shares of common stock, and issuances of common stock
equivalents. The exercise price of the series B-4 warrants was $0.0051
as
of September 30, 2008. The series B-4 warrants can be exercised on
a
cashless basis beginning one year after issuance if (i) the per share
market value of a share of our common stock (either the volume the
weighted average price or the fair market value as determined by
an
independent appraiser) is greater than the warrant price; and (ii)
a

Series C-3
warrants to purchase 1,375 shares in the aggregate of common stock
at an
initial exercise price of
$4,200
per share subject to adjustment for stock splits and combinations,
certain
dividends and distributions, reclassification, exchange or substitution,
reorganization, merger, consolidation or sales of assets; issuances
of
additional shares of common stock, and issuances of common stock
equivalents. The exercise price of the series C-3 warrants was $0.0051
as
of September 30, 2008. The series C-3 warrants can be exercised on
a
cashless basis beginning one year after issuance if (i) the per share
market value of a share of our common stock (either the volume the
weighted average price or the fair market value as determined by
an
independent appraiser) is greater than the warrant price; and (ii)
a
registration statement for the warrant stock is not then in effect.

Warrants
issued to the placement agents in the financing to purchase 125 shares
of
common stock at an exercise price per share equal to $0.0051 with
a term

Under
the
Series A Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement, Remote Dynamics made certain
covenants to the investors, including, as long as any notes or warrants remain
outstanding, to have authorized and reserved for issuance 120% of the aggregate
number of shares of the Company’s common stock needed for issuance upon
conversion of the notes and exercise of the warrants. The Company also agreed
to
prepare and file resale registration statements with the SEC for the shares
of
common stock underlying the notes and warrants. If the registration statements
are not filed or declared effective within specified time frames or the Company
fails to meet other specified deadlines, the investors are entitled to monetary
liquidated damages equal to 1.5% of the total amount invested by such investor
in the private placement, plus an additional 1.5% liquidated damages for each
30-day period thereafter. The Company is obligated to maintain the effectiveness
of the registration statements until the earlier of (a) the date when the
underlying securities have been sold or (b) the date on which the underlying
shares of common stock can be sold without restriction under Rule
144(k).
We
have
failed to comply with certain of our other obligations relating to the Series
A
Notes, including our failure to make scheduled principal payments and to
register for resale the shares of common stock underlying the notes and warrants
issued in the Series A private placement. The Series A Notes provide for a
default interest rate of 10% per annum on the outstanding principal amount
of
the notes for periods in which certain specified events of default occur and
are
continuing and liquidated damages for non-compliance with our registration
obligations. As of September 30, 2008, we have accrued $971,220 in default
interest and liquidated damages under the Series A Notes.
Our
non-compliance with the terms of the notes also exposes to the risk that our
note holders could seek to exercise prepayment or other remedies under the
notes. We have received notices of default from two holders of our Series A
Notes. The notices demand immediate payment in cash of
$613,056. To date, we have made no payment in respect of the note holder
demands and they remain outstanding.
In
February, 2008, holders of $1,492,799 principal amount of the Series A Notes
agreed to extend the principal payment schedule and maturity date of the notes
until August 31, 2009. As extended, payments under the notes will be due on
a
monthly basis (subject to deferral at the holder’s option) and may be made in
the form of shares of our common stock eligible for resale pursuant to Rule
144
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
In
March,
2008, we resumed making payments to certain of our note holders of amounts
due
under the notes by issuing shares of our common stock under the terms of the
notes. Through the first nine months of 2008, we issued 2,601,864 shares of
common stock as partial principal payments on the Series A Notes in satisfaction
of $495,156 of obligations due under the notes. We expect to issue additional
shares of our common stock in payment of amounts due under the notes during
the
remainder of 2008 and thereafter. In general, the shares issued are available
for immediate resale by the holders in accordance with Rule 144 under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

Series
B Note Financing
On
November 30, 2006, the Company entered into a Note and Warrant Purchase
Agreement with BMSI and other accredited investors. Pursuant to the Note and
Warrant Purchase Agreement, the Company received $1,691,500 in gross proceeds
from the sale of up to (i) $1,691,500 principal amount of its series B
subordinated secured convertible promissory notes, (ii) $1,278,200 principal
amount of its original issue discount series B subordinated secured convertible
promissory notes, (iii) series E-7 warrants to purchase 306,963 shares of the
Company’s common stock and (iv) series F-4 warrants to purchase 306,963 shares
of the Company’s common stock.
The
series B subordinated secured convertible promissory notes and the series B
original issue discount series B subordinated secured convertible promissory
notes (collectively, the “Series B Notes”) are secured by all of the Company’s
assets, subject to existing liens, are due on dates ranging from December 4,
2009 to May 2011 and began scheduled amortization of principal (in nine
quarterly installments) on dates ranging from August 1, 2007 to December 2008.
The Company may make principal installment payments in cash or in registered
shares of its common stock. If paid in common stock, certain conditions must
be
satisfied, and the number of registered shares to be paid to the holder must
be
an amount equal to the principal installment amount divided by the lesser of
(i)
$1.00 and (ii) 90% of the average of the volume weighted average trading prices
of the common stock for the ten trading days immediately preceding the principal
payment. The Series B Notes are convertible into the Company’s common stock at a
conversion price of $0.0051 per share, subject to adjustment for stock splits
and combinations, certain dividends and distributions, reclassification,
exchange or substitution, reorganization, merger, consolidation or sales of
assets; issuances of additional shares of common stock, and issuances of common
stock equivalents.
Upon
the
occurrence of specified events of default under the Series B Notes, the holders
may (a)
demand
prepayment of the notes as described below, (b) demand that the principal amount
of the notes then outstanding be converted into shares of the Company’s common
stock; and/or (c) exercise any of the holder’s other rights or remedies under
the transaction documents or applicable law.
If
the
holders require the Company to prepay all or a
portion
of the notes, the prepayment price would equal to 120% of the principal amount
of the notes. The holders would also recover all other costs or expenses due
in
respect of the notes and the other transaction documents.
As
part
of the Series B Note financing, the Company agreed:
·
|
pursuant
to the terms of "most favored nations" rights granted to the Series
A note
holders investors, to issue in exchange for $1,013,755 principal
amount of
the Series A Notes, an additional (i) $1,146,755 principal amount
of
Series B Notes, (ii) $458,702 principal amount of Series B OID Notes,
(iii) series E-7 warrants to purchase 3,860 shares of the Company’s common
stock and (iv) series F-4 warrants to purchase 3,860 shares of the
Company’s common stock. The Company has not received and will not receive
any additional proceeds from the exchange. As of December 31, 2007
and
September 30, 2008, the Company had issued (i) $1,003,394 principal
amount
of Series B Notes, (ii) $401,357 principal amount of Series B OID
Notes,
(iii) series E-7 warrants to purchase 2,352 shares of the Company’s common
stock and (iv) series F-4 warrants to purchase 2,352 shares of the
Company’s common stock, in exchange for $901,144 principal amount of the
Series A Notes. The exchange was completed as of December 31,
2007.
|
·
|
to
issue, in exchange for 50 shares of the Company’s Series B convertible
preferred stock with an aggregate face value of $500,000 (held by
SDS) an
additional (i) $700,000 principal amount of Series B Notes, (ii)
series
E-7 warrants to purchase 1,172 shares of the Company’s common stock and
(iii) series F-4 warrants to purchase 1,172 shares of the Company’s common
stock. As of December, 31, 2007, this exchange was completed in its
entirety.
|
·
|
to
pay to the placement agent for the transaction consideration consisting
of
(a) a cash sales commission of $150,480 (b) warrants to purchase
822
shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $0.0086 per
share (as of September 30, 2008) and being exercisable for ten years,
(c)
series E-7 warrants to purchase 617 shares of the Company’s common stock,
and (d) series F-4 warrants to purchase 617 shares of the Company’s common
stock. The Company also paid $60,000 to Strands Management Company,
LLC
for consulting work as well as $59,816 in legal counsel fees as part
of
the private placement.
|
The
Company has failed to comply with certain of its other obligations relating
to
the Series B Notes, including the Company’s failure to make scheduled principal
payments and to register for resale the shares of common stock underlying the
notes and warrants issued in the Series B private placement. The Series B Notes
provide for a default interest rate of 10% per annum on the outstanding
principal amount of the notes for periods in which certain specified events
of
default occur and are continuing and liquidated damages for non-compliance
with
our registration obligations. As of September 30, 2008, the Company has accrued
$397,100 in default interest and liquidated damages under the Series B
Notes.
The
Company’s non-compliance with the terms of the notes also exposes the Company to
the risk that the note holders could exercise their prepayment or other remedies
under the notes.
In
March,
2008, the Company commenced making payments to certain of its Series B note
holders of amounts due under the notes by issuing shares of the Company’s common
stock under the terms of the notes. Through the first nine months of 2008,
the
Company issued 1,240,060 shares of common stock as partial payments on the
Series B Notes in satisfaction of $246,897 of obligations due under the notes.
The Company expects to issue additional shares of its common stock in payment
of
amounts due under the notes during the remainder of 2008 and thereafter.
The
Company does not currently have the cash on hand to repay amounts due under
its
Series B Notes if the note holders elect to exercise their repayment or other
remedies. If the Company’s efforts to restructure or otherwise satisfy its
obligations under the notes are unsuccessful
,
and
the
Company is unable to raise enough money to cover the amounts payable under
the
notes, the Company may be forced to restructure, file for bankruptcy, sell
assets or cease operations.
BounceGPS

November 30, 2006, Remote Dynamics entered into a Share Exchange Agreement
with
BMSI.
Pursuant
to the Share Exchange Agreement, Remote Dynamics agreed to acquire from BMSI
100% of the capital stock of BounceGPS, Inc., a provider of mobile asset
management solutions. As part of the consideration for the acquisition, Remote
Dynamics issued to BMSI a Series B Note in the principal amount of $660,000
and
a Series B OID Note in the principal amount of $264,000.

Accounting
for Series B Notes and Warrant Purchase Agreement
In
connection with the convertible Series B Notes and OID Notes, we issued warrants
to the Note holders to purchase approximately 231.9 million shares of our common
stock at exercise prices noted above. The fair value of the warrants was
estimated to be approximately $399,000 using the Black-Scholes pricing model.
The fair value of the warrants allocated to the warrants on a relative fair
value basis was determined to be approximately $262,000 and was recorded as
additional paid-in-capital and a debt discount. The debt discount will be
amortized to interest expense over the terms of the notes.
Additionally,
the Series B Notes and OID Notes were considered to have a beneficial conversion
feature because they permitted the holders to convert their interest in the
Series B Notes and OID Notes into shares of our common stock at a deemed
effective fair value conversion price of $0.70 per share, which on the date
of
issuance, was lower than the price of our common stock of $0.75 per share.
The
total amount of the beneficial conversion feature was approximately $51,000.
This amount was recorded as additional paid-in-capital and will be amortized
to
interest expense from the date of issuance to the earlier of the maturity of
the
Series B Notes or to the date of the conversion.
We
recorded $
264,934
of transaction costs as deferred financing fees. We also recorded $62,169 as
deferred financing fees for the fair value of the placement agent warrants
which
were valued using the Black-Scholes pricing model. The deferred financing fees
will be amortized to interest expense from the date of the Series B Notes to
the
earlier of the maturity of the Series B Notes or the date of conversion. During
the nine months ended September 30, 2008, $80,000 of the deferred financing
fees
was amortized to interest expense.

We
provide a limited warranty on all REDIview product sales, at no additional
cost
to the customer, which provides for replacement of defective parts for one
year
after the product is sold. We provide a limited warranty on all VMI product
sales, at no additional cost to the customer, which provides for replacement

with these products and other similar products. The product warranty liability,
which is included in “Accrued expenses and other current liabilities” and “Other
non-current liabilities” in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets,
totaled approximately $55,000 at September 30, 2008.
Litigation
In
March
2008, Teletouch Communications, Inc. brought a lawsuit against the Company
alleging the Company was liable for payment of a $5.8 million default judgment
obtained by Teletouch against DataLogic International, Inc., based on corporate
alter ego and other claims (Teletouch Communications, Inc. dba Teletouch v.
Remote Dynamics, Inc., Collin County, Texas District Court).
The Company believes that Teletouch’s claims are without
merit.
From
time
to time, we may be subject to legal proceedings and claims that arise in the
ordinary course of business. We do not believe that any claims other than those
described above exist where the outcome of such matters would have a material
adverse affect on our consolidated financial position, operating results or
cash
flows. However, there can be no assurance such legal proceedings will not have
a
material impact on future results.

Executive
Summary
We
market, sell and support automatic vehicle location (“AVL”) and mobile resource
management solutions targeting companies that operate fleets of vehicles and
equipment. Our AVL solutions are designed for fleets within diverse industry
vertical markets such as construction, field services, distribution, limousine,
electrical/plumbing, waste management, and government. Our core technology,
telematics, combines wireless communications, GPS location technology,
geospatial solutions and vehicle data integration with a web-accessible
application that aids in the optimization of remote business solutions. We
believe our fleet management solution contributes to increased operator
efficiency by improving the productivity of mobile workers through real-time
position reports, route-traveled information, and exception based reporting
designed to highlight mobile workforce inefficiencies. This in-depth reporting
enables our customers to correct those inefficiencies and deliver cost savings
to the bottom line.
We
commercially introduced our next generation AVL product, REDIview, in 2005.
REDIview was designed with a flexible architecture to accommodate expected
additional functional requirements that will be required to effectively compete
in the marketplace.
Our
REDIview product line forms the basis of our current business plan for 2008
and
2009. We expect this product line to provide the foundation for a growth in
revenues and, if our revenues grow as we anticipate, ultimately profitability.
In implementing our business plan, we have completed a significant cost and
operational-based restructuring, including rightsizing the workforce. We are
focusing our efforts on enhancing the existing REDIview product line by adding
new functionality in the areas of dispatching, security, and maintenance.
We
expect
2008 net activations to be the same as 2007 or slightly lower. Our 2008 gross
sales are greater than in 2007,, however, we deactivated certain customers
that
were on unprofitable contracts originating in 2005. Accordingly, 2008 will
have
higher average revenue per unit compared to the 2007 period.

Results
of Operations - Three Months Ended September 30, 2008 Compared to Three Months
Ended September 30, 2007
Total
revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2008 was $1.38 million compared
to $1.16 million during the three months ended September 30, 2007. Our revenues
are solely dependent upon sales of our REDIview product line. The 19.3% increase
in revenue from the comparable period in 2007 is primarily attributable to
REDIview unit growth. REDIview unit growth has been 12.8% since December 31,
2007 and 19.1% since September 30, 2007. In accordance with our revenue
recognition policies, we defer and recognize REDIview unit sales and the
associated cost of sales over the customer’s contract life.
Total
gross profit margin was 66% for the three months ended September 30, 2008
compared to 56% for the three months ended September 30, 2007. This increase
is
primarily attributable to reduced costs of airtime and mapping. Of the 66%
gross
profit margin, 4 percentage points or $152,000 represents amortization of the
deferred performance obligation of our installed base related to the reverse
merger transaction on December 4, 2006. We expect gross profit margins of
greater than 55% to continue through 2008, which will include $154,000 of
additional amortization of the deferred performance obligation mentioned above.
This amortization is complete at the end of 2008 and will not be incurred in
2009. Accordingly, we expect our gross profit margins to be in the 53% - 56%
range in 2009.
Total
operating expenses totaled $989,000 for the three months ended September 30,
2008 compared to $904,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2007. This
$85,000 or 9.4% increase is primarily attributable to increased bad debt expense
and payroll expenses.
Interest
expense totaled $0.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2008
compared to $1.4 million for the same period during 2007. The current period
interest expense primarily relates to the accretion of the Series B Notes in
the
amount of $248,000. The $1,099,000 decrease in interest expense since the
comparable period in 2007 can be primarily attributed to the fact that the
Series A Notes were fully accreted in February 2008. The accretion of the Series
A Notes was $0 for the three months ended September 30, 2008 compared to $0.7
million for the three months ended September 30, 2007. Additionally, default
interest and liquidated damages on the Series A and Series B Notes totaled
$513,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2007 versus $50,000 for the
three months ended September 30, 2008.
Adjusted
EBITDA Presentation
EBITDA
represents net income (loss) before interest, taxes, depreciation and
amortization, and in the case of Adjusted EBITDA, before goodwill impairment,
gains or losses on the extinguishment of debt and preferred stock, restructuring
charges and other non-operating costs. EBITDA is not a measurement of
financial performance under GAAP. However, we have included data with respect
to
EBITDA because we evaluate and project the performance of our business using
several measures, including EBITDA. The computations of Adjusted EBITDA for
the quarters ended September 30, 2008 and 2007 were as follows.

We
consider adjusted EBITDA to be an important supplemental indicator of our
operating performance, particularly as compared to the operating performance
of
our competitors, because this measure eliminates many differences among
companies in financial, capitalization and tax structures, capital investment
cycles and ages of related assets, as well as certain recurring non-cash and
non-operating items. We believe that consideration of EBITDA should be
supplemental, because EBITDA has limitations as an analytical financial measure.
These limitations include the following: EBITDA does not reflect our cash
expenditures, or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual
commitments; EBITDA does not reflect the interest expense, or the cash
requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments, on our
indebtedness; although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges,
the
assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the
future, and EBITDA does not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements;
EBITDA does not reflect the effect of earnings or charges resulting from matters
we consider not to be indicative of our ongoing operations; and not all of
the
companies in our industry may calculate EBITDA in the same manner in which
we
calculate EBITDA, which limits its usefulness as a comparative
measure.
Management
compensates for these limitations by relying primarily on its GAAP results
to
evaluate its operating performance and by considering independently the economic
effects of the foregoing items that are not reflected in EBITDA. As a result
of
these limitations, EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to net
income (loss), as calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles, as a measure of operating performance, nor should it be considered
as an alternative to cash flows as a measure of liquidity.
Further,
we realize that effective analysis of our operations with an approach of
comparing results for a current period with the results of a corresponding
prior
period may be difficult due to our December 2006 reverse merger transaction
and
security issuances that we have completed.
Results
of Operations - Nine Months Ended September 30, 2008 Compared to Nine Months
Ended September 30, 2007
Total
revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 was $3.86 million compared
to $3.62 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2007. The 6.6%
increase from the comparable period in 2007 is primarily attributable to a
$615,000 (or 17.1%) increase in REDIview revenue offset by a $328,000 (or 9.1%)
reduction in revenue from our discontinued VMI service offering and a $39,000
(or 1.1%) decrease in revenue from our discontinued BounceGPS product offering.
Total
gross profit margin was 62% for the nine months ended September 30, 2008
compared to 57% for the nine months ended September 30, 2007. This increase
is
primarily attributable to reduced costs of airtime and mapping. Of the 62%
gross
profit margin, 5 percentage points or $434,000 represents amortization of the
deferred performance obligation of our installed base related to the reverse
merger transaction on December 4, 2006.
Total
operating expenses totaled $2.9 million for the nine months ended September
30,
2008 compared to $3.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2007.
This
$0.3 million or 9.4% decrease is attributable to management’s efforts to reduce
general and administrative expenses and other operating expenses.
Interest
expense totaled $1.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2008
compared to $4.2 million for the same period during 2007. The $2.8 million
decrease in interest expense since the comparable period in 2007 can be
primarily attributed to the fact that the Series A Notes were fully accreted
in
February 2008. The accretion of the Series A Notes was $.4 million for the
nine
months ended September 30, 2008 compared to $2.0 million for the nine months
ended September 30, 2007. $460,000 of the decrease in interest expense is due
to
the accretion of the HFS Note which was not included in the prior period as
the
HFS Note was converted to the Series B Notes in May, 2007. Additionally, default
interest and liquidated damages on the Series A and Series B Notes totaled
$1,162,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 versus $254,000 for
the
nine months ended September 30, 2008.
Other
income of $384,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 primarily
relates to the reversal of a $230,000 legal accrual and gains from creditor
resolution settlements of $83,000. We recorded a loss on the extinguishment
of
debt totaling $341,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 for the
exchange of Series A Notes into new Series B Notes. We also recorded a loss
on
the extinguishment of redeemable preferred stock totaling $363,000 for the
nine
months ended September 30, 2007 for the exchange of Series B preferred stock
into Series B Notes.

we realize that effective analysis of our operations with an approach of
comparing results for a current period with the results of a corresponding
prior
period may be difficult due to our December 2006 reverse merger transaction
and
security issuances that we have completed.
Liquidity
and Capital Resources
We
have
incurred significant operating losses since our inception and have limited
financial resources until such time that we are able to generate positive cash
flow from operations. We had cash and cash equivalents of $-0- as of September
30, 2008, compared to $228,000 as of December 31, 2007.
Net
cash
used in operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 was $258,000,
primarily due to a net loss of $1.9 million offset by amortization of
intangibles of $554,000 and accretion of notes payable of $1,074,000. Net cash
used in operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 was $874,000,
primarily due to a net loss of $5.6 million offset by a loss on extinguishment
of debt of $341,000, loss on extinguishment of redeemable preferred stock of
$363,000, accretion of notes payable of $3,057,000, and amortization of
intangibles of $611,000.
Net
cash
provided by financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2008
was $46,000, primarily due to the net proceeds from the Series B debt offering
of $128,000 offset by a re-payment of a line of credit of $69,000. Net cash
provided by financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2007
was $788,000, primarily due to the net proceeds from the Series B debt offering.
We
do not
expect to achieve profitability or positive cash flow in 2008. Key to achieving
profitability is to obtain a REDIview customer base that provides monthly
recurring revenues and corresponding gross margins that exceed operating costs
and expenses to support the REDIview customer base Our plans for 2008 and 2009
include continuing to grow our sales staff as revenues allow and managing our
indirect sales channel partners in an effort to grow recurring
revenue
.
However,
there can be no assurance that we will achieve our sales targets for 2008 or
2009. Failure to do so may have a material adverse effect on our business,
financial condition and results of operations. Moreover, despite actions to
increase revenue, to reduce operating costs and to improve profitability and
cash flow, our operating losses and net operating cash outflows will continue
into at least the fourth quarter of 2008.
We
had a
working capital deficit of $3.1 million, excluding the gross amount of our
outstanding secured convertible notes of $9.7 million, as of September 30,
2008.
We expect that we will have limited availability to working capital (and will
continue to have a working capital deficit) for the foreseeable future. However,
we believe that we will have sufficient capital to fund our ongoing operations
through 2009, assuming that we are able to meet our sales targets and operating
cost reduction plans and to negotiate acceptable payment arrangements with
our
senior security holders, vendors and other creditors. The sufficiency of
our cash resources also depends to a certain extent on general economic,
financial, competitive or other factors beyond our control.
We
have
historically relied on a series of financings and asset sales to fund our
ongoing operations.
In
May,
2008, we closed on the fourth round of our series B secured convertible note
financing, whereby we received gross proceeds of $376,000 of which $200,000
was
already pre-funded by BMSI. The investors agreed to waive the fourth round
closing conditions with respect to the amounts funded in exchange for an
increase in the principal amount of the original issue discount series B secured
convertible note issued to each investor in the fourth closing from 40% of
the
investor’s investment to 200% of the investor’s investment. We issued to the
investors (i) $376,000 principal amount of our series B secured convertible
notes, (ii) $752,000 principal amount of our original issue discount series
B
secured convertible notes, (iii) our series E-7 warrants to purchase 303,897
shares of our common stock and (iv) our series F-4 warrants to purchase 303,897
shares of our common stock.
In
September , 2008, we entered into working capital line of credit promissory
notes with Gary Hallgren, our Chief Executive Officer, and Strands Management
Company, LLC, an entity owned by our directors David Walters and Keith Moore.
Our Board of Directors has authorized borrowings of up to $100,000 under the
terms of the promissory notes to meet our working capital funding needs. The
promissory notes are unsecured, bear interest at an annual rate of 10% and
are
due and payable on demand by the lender. In September 2008, we borrowed a total
of $34,700 under the notes. All amounts borrowed were repaid in September and
we
currently have no outstanding borrowings under the notes.
We
do not
currently have any other arrangements for additional financing and we may not
be
able to secure additional debt or equity financing on terms acceptable to us,
or
at all, at the time when we need such financing. Further, our ability to
secure certain types of additional financings is restricted under the terms
of
our existing financing arrangements. There can be no assurance that we
will be able to consummate a transaction for additional capital prior to
substantially depleting our available cash reserves, and our failure to do
so
may force us to restructure, file for bankruptcy, sell assets or cease
operations.
As
of
November xx, 2008, approximately $2,205,865 in principal amount of our
outstanding Series A Notes have reached their maturity date and are due and
payable. In February, 2008, holders of $1,492,799 principal amount of the Series
A Notes agreed to extend the principal payment schedule and maturity date of
the
notes until August 31, 2009. As extended, payments under the notes will be
due
on a monthly basis (subject to deferral at the holder’s option) and may be made
in the form of shares of our common stock eligible for resale pursuant to Rule
144 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
We
have
failed to comply with certain of our other obligations relating to the notes,
including our failure to make scheduled principal payments and to register
for
resale the shares of common stock underlying the notes and warrants issued
in
the related private placements. The notes provide for a default interest rate
of
10% per annum on the outstanding principal amount of the notes for periods
in
which certain specified events of default occur and are continuing and for
liquidated damages for non-compliance with our registration obligations. As
of
September 30, 2008, we have accrued $1,368,320 in default interest and
liquidated damages under our secured convertible notes.
Our
non-compliance with the terms of the notes also exposes to the risk that our
note holders could seek to exercise prepayment or other remedies under the
notes. We have received notices of default from two holders of our Series A
Notes. The notices demand immediate payment in cash of
$613,056. To date, we have made no payment in respect of the note holder
demands and they remain outstanding.
We
do not
currently have the cash on hand to repay amounts due under our secured
convertible notes if the note holders elect to exercise their repayment or
other
remedies. If our efforts to restructure or otherwise satisfy our obligations
under the notes are unsuccessful
,
and
we
are unable to raise enough money to cover the amounts payable under the notes,
we may be forced to restructure, file for bankruptcy, sell assets or cease
operations.
In
March,
2008, we resumed making payments to certain of our note holders of amounts
due
under the notes by issuing shares of our common stock under the terms of the
notes. Through the first nine months of 2008, we issued 2,601,864 shares of
common stock as partial principal payments on the Series A Notes in satisfaction
of $495,156 of obligations due under the notes. Additionally, we issued
1,240.060 shares of common stock as partial payments on the Series B Notes
in
satisfaction of $246,897 of obligations due under the notes. We expect to issue
additional shares of our common stock in payment of amounts due under the notes
during the remainder of 2008 and thereafter. In general, the shares issued
are
available for immediate resale by the holders in accordance with Rule 144 under
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
In
2008,
we issued a total of 528 shares of our Series C Preferred Stock to BMSI in
satisfaction of our dividend obligations under our outstanding Series C
Preferred Stock for the periods ended August 31, 2007, November 20, 2007,
February 29, 2008, May 31, 2008 and August 31, 2008.
In
August, 2008, we amended our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation
to (i) effect a one-for-four hundred reverse stock split of our common stock
and
(ii) authorize (after giving effect to the reverse stock split) 5,000,000,000
authorized shares of our common stock having a par value of $0.0001 per share.
These actions were required for us to comply with the terms of our existing
financing and other contractual arrangements.
We
expect
to continue to issue additional shares of our common stock in payment of amounts
due under our secured convertible notes and convertible preferred stock during
the remainder of 2008 and thereafter. In general, the shares issued are
available for immediate resale by the holders in accordance with Rule 144 under
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
Critical
Accounting Policies and Estimates
Management’s
discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations are
based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared
in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates
and
judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues
and
expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an
ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to product
returns, bad debts, inventories, income taxes, warranty obligations, maintenance
contracts and contingencies. We base our estimates on historical experience
and
on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the
circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about
the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent
from
other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different
assumptions or conditions.
The
significant accounting policies and estimates, which we believe to be the most
critical to aid in fully understanding and evaluating reported financial
results, are stated in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-KSB
for our fiscal year ended December 31, 2007.

4T:
CONTROLS
AND PROCEDURES
We
maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that
information required to be disclosed in our reports
made
pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange
Act”).
is
recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the timelines specified
in
the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and that such
information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our
Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, as appropriate, to
allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and
evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that
any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can
only
provide reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and
in
reaching a reasonable level of assurance, management necessarily was required
to
apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible
controls and procedures.
As
required by Rule 13a-15(b) under the Exchange Act, we carried out an
evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management,
including our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, of the
effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and
procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on the
foregoing, our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer concluded
that our disclosure controls and procedures were
effective
as of the end of period covered by this report in timely alerting them to
material information relating to Remote Dynamics, Inc. required to be disclosed
in our periodic reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
There
were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting (as such
term
is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during
the quarter ended September 30, 2008, that have materially affected, or are
reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial
reporting.

RECENT
SALES OF UNREGISTERED SECURITIES
In
the
third quarter of 2008, we made payments to certain holders of our secured
convertible notes of amounts due under the notes by issuing shares of our common
stock under the terms of the notes. These payments were in the form of 3,091,440
shares of the Company’s common stock in satisfaction of $112,389 of obligations
due under the notes. These represent issuance prices ranging from $0.0051 to
$0.1056 per share (for the Series A Notes) and $0.01256 to $0.1024 per share
(for the Series B Notes). We believe the issuance of the shares was exempt
from
registration under Sections 3(a)(9) and 4(2) of the Securities Act and pursuant
to Regulation D under the Securities Act. All of the persons receiving shares
were accredited investors.
On
September 1, 2008, we issued 106 shares of series C convertible preferred stock
to BMSI in satisfaction of our dividend obligations under our outstanding series
C convertible preferred stock for the period ended August 31, 2008. We believe
the issuance of the shares was exempt from registration under Section 4(2)
of
the Securities Act and pursuant to Regulation D under the Securities Act. The
entity receiving shares was an accredited investor.

DEFAULTS
UPON SENIOR SECURITIES
As
of
November 14, 2008, approximately $2,205,865 in principal amount of our
outstanding Series A Notes have reached their maturity date and are due and
payable. We have also failed to comply with certain of our other obligations
relating to our secured convertible notes, including our failure to make
scheduled principal payments and to register for resale the shares of common
stock underlying the notes and warrants issued in the related private
placements. The notes provide for a default interest rate of 10% per annum
on
the outstanding principal amount of the notes for periods in which certain
specified events of default occur and are continuing and for liquidated damages
for non-compliance with our registration obligations. As of September 30, 2008,
we have accrued $1,368,320 in default interest and liquidated damages under
our
secured convertible notes.
Our
non-compliance with the terms of the notes also exposes to the risk that our
note holders could seek to exercise prepayment or other remedies under the
notes. We have received notices of default from two holders of our Series A
Notes. The notices demand immediate payment in cash of
$613,056. To date, we have made no payment in respect of the note holder
demands and they remain outstanding.
We
do not
currently have the cash on hand to repay amounts due under our secured
convertible notes if the note holders elect to exercise their repayment or
other
remedies. If our efforts to restructure or otherwise satisfy our obligations
under the notes are unsuccessful
,
and
we
are unable to raise enough money to cover the amounts payable under the notes,
we may be forced to restructure, file for bankruptcy, sell assets or cease
operations.
ITEM
4: SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS
On
August
6, 2008, our majority stockholder gave its signed written consent to action
without a meeting (i) to approve an amendment to our Amended and Restated
Certificate of Incorporation to authorize (after giving effect to the reverse
stock split described below) 5,000,000,000 authorized shares of our common
stock
having a par value of $0.0001 per share and (ii) to approve a one-for-four
hundred reverse stock split of our common stock. These matters are described
in
our definitive Information Statement on Schedule 14C filed with the Securities
and Exchange Commission on August 6, 2008.
