NOTE
1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
|
|||||||||
Business Activity - Metwood, Inc.
("Metwood") was organized under the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia
on April 7, 1993. On June 30, 2000, Metwood entered into an
Agreement and Plan of Reorganization in which the majority of its
outstanding common stock was acquired by a publicly held Nevada shell
corporation. The acquisition was a tax-free exchange for
federal and state income tax purposes and was accounted for as a reverse
merger in accordance with Accounting Principles Board ("APB") Opinion No.
16. Upon acquisition, the name of the shell corporation was
changed to Metwood, Inc., and Metwood, Inc., the Virginia corporation,
became a wholly owned subsidiary of Metwood, Inc., the Nevada
corporation. The publicly traded shell corporation had not had
a material operating history for several years prior to the
merger.
|
|||||||||
Effective
January 1, 2002, Metwood acquired certain assets of Providence
Engineering, PC ("Providence"), a professional engineering firm with
customers in the same proximity as Metwood. The total purchase
price of $350,000 was paid with $60,000 in cash and with 290,000 shares of
the Company's common stock to the two Providence
shareholders. These shares were valued at the closing active
quoted market price of the stock at the effective date of the purchase,
which was $1.00 per share. One of the shareholders of
Providence was also an officer and existing shareholder of Metwood prior
to the acquisition. In 2002 Metwood purchased from that
shareholder and retired 15,000 of the originally issued 290,000 shares for
$15,000 and in 2004 purchased from that shareholder and retired the
remaining 275,000 of the originally issued 290,000 shares for $50,000. The
initial purchase transaction was accounted for under the purchase method
of accounting. The purchase price was allocated as
follows:
|
|||||||||
Accounts
receivable
|
$ 75,000
|
||||||||
Fixed
assets
|
45,000
|
||||||||
Goodwill
|
230,000
|
||||||||
Total
|
$350,000
|
||||||||
During
the year ended June 30, 2003, liabilities assumed at the date of
acquisition were identified and paid. The amount of the
liabilities paid was $23,088, and this amount was added to
goodwill.
|
|||||||||
The
consolidated company ("the Company") provides construction-related
products and engineering services to residential customers and
contractors, commercial contractors, developers and retail enterprises,
primarily in southwestern Virginia.
|
|||||||||
Basis of Presentation - The financial
statements include the accounts of Metwood, Inc. and its wholly owned
subsidiary, Providence Engineering, PC, prepared in accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America
and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission. All significant intercompany balances and
transactions have been eliminated.
|
|||||||||
In
the opinion of management, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial
statements contain all the adjustments necessary in order to make the
financial statements not misleading. The results for the period
ended September 30, 2008 are not necessarily indicative of the results to
be expected for the entire fiscal year ending June 30,
2009.
|
Fair Value of Financial Instruments - For
certain of the Company's financial instruments, none of which are held for
trading, including cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued
expenses, the carrying amounts approximate fair value due to their short
maturities.
|
Management's Use of Estimates - 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, disclosures of contingent
assets and liabilities at the date of consolidated financial statements,
and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting
period. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.
|
Accounts Receivable - The
Company grants credit in the form of unsecured accounts receivable to its
customers based on an evaluation of their financial
condition. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of
its customers. The estimate of the allowance for doubtful
accounts, which is charged off to bad debt expense, is based on
management’s assessment of current economic conditions and historical
collection experience with each customer. At September 30,
2008, the allowance for doubtful accounts was $5,000. Specific
customer receivables are considered past due when they are outstanding
beyond their contractual terms and are charged off to bad debt expense
when determined uncollectible. For the three months ended
September 30, 2008 recovery of bad debts was $520 and for the period ended
September 30, 2007, the amount of bad debts charged off was
$2,554.
|
Inventory - Inventory, consisting of metal
and wood raw materials, is located on the Company's premises and is stated
at the lower of cost or market using the first-in, first-out
method.
|
Property and Equipment - Property and
equipment are recorded at cost and include expenditures for improvements
when they substantially increase the productive lives of existing
assets. Maintenance and repair costs are expensed to operations
as incurred. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line
method over the assets' estimated useful lives, which range from three to
forty years. When a fixed asset is disposed of, its cost and
related accumulated depreciation are removed from the
accounts. The difference between undepreciated cost and the
proceeds is recorded as a gain or loss.
|
Goodwill - The Company accounts for
goodwill and intangibles under SFAS No. 142, “Goodwill and Other
Intangible Assets.” As such, goodwill is not amortized, but is subject to
annual impairment reviews, or more frequent reviews if events or
circumstances indicate there may be an impairment. The Company performed
its required annual goodwill impairment test as of June 30, 2008 using
discounted cash flow estimates and found that there was no impairment of
goodwill.
|
Patents - The Company has been assigned
several key product patents developed by certain Company
officers. No value has been recorded in the Company's financial
statements because the fair value of the patents was not determinable
within reasonable limits at the date of
assignment.
|
Revenue Recognition - Revenue is recognized
when goods are shipped and earned or when services are performed, provided
collection of the resulting receivable is probable. If any
material contingencies are present, revenue recognition is delayed until
all material contingencies are eliminated. Further, no revenue
is recognized unless collection of the applicable consideration is
probable.
|
|||||||||
Income Taxes - Income taxes are accounted
for in accordance with SFAS No. 109, "Accounting for Income
Taxes." A deferred tax asset or liability is recorded for all
temporary differences between financial and tax reporting and for net
operating loss carryforwards, where applicable. Deferred tax
assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of
management, it is more likely than not that some portion or the entire
deferred tax asset will not be realized. Deferred tax assets
and liabilities are adjusted for the effect of changes in tax laws and
rates on the date of enactment.
|
|||||||||
Research and Development - The Company
performs research and development on its metal/wood products, new product
lines, and new patents. Costs, if any, are expensed as they are
incurred. Research and development costs for the three months
ended September 30, 2008 and 2007 were $4,400 and $7,576,
respectively.
|
|||||||||
Earnings Per Common Share - Basic earnings
per share amounts are based on the weighted average shares of common stock
outstanding. If applicable, diluted earnings per share would
assume the conversion, exercise or issuance of all potential common stock
instruments such as options, warrants and convertible securities, unless
the effect is to reduce a loss or increase earnings per share. This
presentation has been adopted for the quarters presented. There
were no adjustments required to net income for the years presented in the
computation of diluted earnings per share.
|
|||||||||
Recent Accounting Pronouncements - In March 2008, the
Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued SFAS No. 161,
"Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities-an
amendment of FASB Statement No. 133," ("SFAS 161"). SFAS 161
requires enhanced disclosures about an entity's derivative and hedging
activities, including (i) how and why an entity uses derivative
instruments, (ii) how derivative instruments and related hedged items are
accounted for under SFAS 133, and (iii) how derivative instruments and
related hedged items affect an entity's financial position, financial
performance and cash flows. This standard becomes effective for
financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning
after November 15, 2008. As SFAS 161 only requires enhanced
disclosures, this standard will have no impact of the Company's financial
statements.
|
|||||||||
In
December 2007, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accountaing
Standards ("SFAS") No. 141 (revised 2007), "Business Combinations," which
replaces SFAS No. 141. The statement retains the purchase
method of accounting for acquisitions, but requires a number of changes,
including changes in the way assets and liabilities are recognized in the
purchase accounting. It also changes the recognition of assets
acquired and liabilities assumed arising from contingencies, requires the
capitalization of in-process research and development at fair value, and
requires the expensing of acquisition-related costs as
incurred. SFAS No. 141 (revised) is effective for fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 2008 and will apply prospectively to business
combinations completed on or after that date. We are currently
assessing the potential impact that adoption of SFAS No. 141 (revised)
would have on our financial
statements.
|
In
December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, "Noncontrolling Interests in
Consolidated Financial Statements, an amendment of ARB 51," which changes
the accounting and reporting for minority interests. Minority
interests will be recharacterized as noncontrolling interests and will be
reported as a component of equity separate from the parent's equity, and
purchases or sales of equity interests that do not result in a change in
control will be accounted for as equity transactions. In
addition, net income attributable to the noncontrolling interest will be
included in consolidated net income on the face of the income statement
and, upon a loss of control, the interest sold, as well as any interest
retained, will be recorded at fair value with any gain or loss recognized
in earnings. SFAS No. 160 is effective for fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 2008 and will apply prospectively, except for
the presentation and disclosure requirements, which will apply
retrospectively. We are currently assessing the potential
impact that adoption of SFAS No. 160 would have on our financial
statements.
|
|||||||||||
In
May 2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued SFAS
No. 162, "The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles,"
("SFAS No. 162"). SFAS No. 162 identifies the sources of accounting
principles and the framework for selecting the principles used in the
preparation of financial statements of nongovernmental entities that are
presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles
(GAAP) in the United States (the GAAP hierarchy). SFAS No. 162 will be
effective 60 days following the SEC's approval of the Public Company
Accounting Oversight Board's amendments to AU Section 411, "The Meaning of
Present Fairly in Conformity With Generally Accepted Accounting
Principles." The FASB has stated that it does not expect SFAS No. 162 will
result in a change in current practice. The application of SFAS No. 162
will have no effect on the Company's financial position, results of
operations or cash flows.
|
|||||||||||
In
May 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 163, "Accounting for Financial
Guarantee Insurance Contracts--an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 60"
("SFAS No. 163"). SFAS No. 163 interprets Statement 60 and amends existing
accounting pronouncements to clarify their application to the financial
guarantee insurance contracts included within the scope of that Statement.
SFAS No. 163 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 2008, and all interim periods within those
fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of
SFAS No. 163 on its financial statements but does not expect it to have an
effect on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash
flows.
|
|||||||||||
In
May 2008, the FASB issued FSP APB 14-1, "Accounting for Convertible Debt
Instruments that may be Settled in Cash upon Conversion (Including Partial Cash
Settlement)"
("FSP APB 14-1"). FSP APB 14-1 applies to convertible debt securities
that, upon conversion, may be settled by the issuer fully or partially in
cash. FSP APB 14-1 specifies that issuers of such instruments should
separately account for the liability and equity components in a manner
that will reflect the entity's nonconvertible debt borrowing rate when
interest cost is recognized in subsequent periods. FSP APB 14-1 is
effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years after December
15, 2008, and must be applied on a retrospective basis. Early
adoption is not permitted. The Company is assessing the potential impact
of this FSP on the convertible debt
issuances.
|
|||||||||||
In
June 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position ("FSP") EITF 03-6-1, "Determining Whether
Instruments Granted in Share-Based Payment Transactions Are Participating
Securities" ("FSP
EITF 03-6-1"). FSP EITF 03-6-1 addresses whether instruments granted in
share-based payment transactions are participating securities prior to
vesting, and therefore need to be included in the earnings allocation in
computing earnings per share under the two-class method as described in
SFAS No. 128, Earnings per Share. Under the guidance of FSP EITF 03-6-1,
unvested share-based payment awards that contain nonforfeitable rights to
dividends or dividend equivalents (whether paid or unpaid) are
participating securities and shall be included in the computation of
earnings-per-share pursuant to the two-class method. FSP EITF 03-6-1 is
effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 2008 and all prior-period earnings per share data presented

In
June 2008, the FASB ratified EITF No. 07-5, "Determining Whether an
Instrument (or an Embedded Feature) is Indexed to an Entity's Own Stock"
("EITF 07-5"). EITF 07-5 provides that an entity should use a two-step
approach to evaluate whether an equity-linked financial instrument (or
embedded feature) is indexed to its own stock, including evaluating the
instrument's contingent exercise and settlement provisions. EITF 07-5 is
effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 2008. Early application is not permitted. The Company is
assessing the potential impact of this EITF 07-5 on the financial
condition and results of operations.

this report are "forward-looking" statements that involve risks and
uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from
projected results. Such "forward-looking" statements include, but are
not necessarily limited to, statements regarding anticipated levels of
future revenues and earnings from operations of the Company. Readers
of this report are cautioned not to put undue reliance on
"forward-looking" statements, which are by their nature, uncertain as
reliable indicators of future
performance.
|
Description
of Business
|
|||||||
Background
|
|||||||
As
discussed in detail in Note 1, the Company was incorporated under the laws
of the Commonwealth of Virginia on April 7, 1993 and, on June 30, 2000,
entered into a reverse merger in which it became the wholly owned
subsidiary of a public Nevada shell corporation, renamed Metwood,
Inc. Effective January 1, 2002, Metwood acquired certain assets
of Providence Engineering, PC in a transaction accounted for under the
purchase method of accounting.
|
|||||||
Principal Products/Services and
Markets
|
|||||||
Metwood
|
|||||||
Residential
builders are aware of the superiority of steel framing vs. wood framing,
insofar as steel framing is lighter; stronger; termite, pest, rot and fire
resistant; and dimensionally more stable in withstanding induced
loads. Although use of steel framing in residential
construction has generally increased each year since 1980, many
residential builders have been hesitant to utilize steel due to the need
to retrain framers and subcontractors who are accustomed to a
"stick-built" construction method where components are laid out and
assembled with nails and screws. The Company's founders, Robert
("Mike") Callahan and Ronald Shiflett, saw the need to combine the
strength and durability of steel with the convenience and familiarity of
wood and wood fasteners.
|
|||||||
Metwood
manufactures light-gage steel construction materials, usually combined
with wood or wood fasteners, for use in residential and commercial
applications in place of more conventional wood products, which are
inferior in terms of strength and durability. The steel and
steel/wood products allow structures to be built with increased load
strength and structural integrity and fewer support beams or support
configurations, thereby allowing for structural designs that are not
possible with wood-only products.
|
|||||||
Metwood's
primary products and services are:
|
|||||||
· Girders
and headers
|
· Garage,
deck and porch concrete pour-over systems
|
||||||
· Floor
joists
|
· Garage
and post-and-beam buildings
|
||||||
· Floor
joist reinforcers
|
· Engineering,
design and custom building services
|
||||||
· Roof
and floor trusses
|
|||||||
Providence
|
|||||||
Providence
is extensively involved in ongoing product research and development for
Metwood. Additionally, Providence offers its customers civil
engineering capabilities which include rezoning and special use
submissions; erosion and sediment control and storm-water management
design; residential, commercial, and religious facility site development
design; and utility design, including water, sewer and onsite treatment
systems. Providence's staff is familiar with construction
practices and has been actively involved in construction administration
and inspection on multiple
projects.
|
Providence
also performs a variety of structural design and analysis work,
successfully providing solutions for many projects, including retaining
walls, residential framing, commercial building framing, light-gage steel
fabrication drawings, metal building retrofits and additions, mezzanines,
and seismic anchors and restraints.
|
|||||||||
Providence
has designed numerous foundations for a variety of
structures. Its foundation design expertise includes metal
building foundations, traditional building construction foundations,
atypical foundations for residential structures, tower foundations, and
sign foundations for a variety of uses and
applications.
|
|||||||||
Providence
has also designed and drafted full building plans for several
applications. When subcontracting with local professional
firms, Providence has the ability to provide basic architectural,
mechanical, electrical, and detailed civil and structural design services
for these facilities.
|
|||||||||
Providence
has reviewed designs by manufacturers for a variety of structures and
structural components, including retaining walls, radio towers, tower
foundations, sign foundations, timber trusses, light-gage steel trusses,
and light-gage steel beams. This service enables clients to
take generic designs and have them certified and approved for construction
in the desired locality.
|
|||||||||
Distribution Methods of Products and
Services
|
|||||||||
The
Company's sales are primarily retail, directly to contractors and
do-it-yourself homeowners in Virginia and North
Carolina. Approximately 90% of the Company's sales are
wholesale to lumberyards, home improvement stores, hardware stores, and
plumbing and electrical suppliers in Virginia and North Carolina,
including Lowe's and 84 Lumber. Metwood relies primarily on its
own sales force to generate sales; additionally, however, the Company has
distributors in Virginia, New York, Oklahoma, Arizona, Colorado and
Pennsylvania and also utilizes the salespeople of wholesale yards stocking
the Company's products as an additional sales force. Metwood
intends to continue expanding the wholesale marketing of its unique
products to retailers and to license the Company's technology and products
to increase its distribution outside of Virginia, North Carolina and the
South.
|
|||||||||
Status of Publicly Announced New Products or
Services
|
|||||||||
The
Company has acquired four new patents through assignment from Robert M.
Callahan and Ronald B. Shiflett, the patent holders. All four
patents reflect various modifications to the Company's Joist Reinforcing
Bracket which will make it even easier for tradesmen to insert utility
conduits through wood joists.
|
|||||||||
Seasonality of Market
|
|||||||||
The
Company's sales can be subject to seasonal impacts, as its products are
used in residential and commercial construction projects which tend to be
at peak levels in Virginia and North Carolina between the months of March
and October. Accordingly, the Company's sales tend to be
greater in its fourth and first fiscal quarters. However, the
Company is expanding into less weather-sensitive markets, such as Florida,
Georgia, Arizona, South Carolina and Alabama in order to ameliorate
seasonality factors. The Company builds an inventory of its
products throughout the winter and spring to support its sales
season.
|
Competition
|
Nationally,
there are over one hundred manufacturers of the types of products produced
by the Company. However, the majority of these manufacturers
are using wood-only products or products without metal
reinforcement. Metwood has identified only one other
manufacturer in the United States that manufactures a wood-metal floor
truss similar to that of the Company. However, Metwood has
often found that its products are the only ones that will work within many
customers' design specs.
|
Sources and Availability of Raw Materials and the
Names of Principal Suppliers
|
All
of the raw materials used by the Company are readily available on the
market from numerous suppliers. The light-gage metal used by
the Company is supplied primarily by Marino-Ware, Telling Industries and
Wheeling Corrugating Company. The Company's main sources of
lumber are BlueLinx and The Contractor Yard. Gerdau Amersteel,
Descosteel and Adelphia Metals provide the majority of the Company's
rebar. Because of the number of suppliers available to the
Company, its decisions in purchasing materials are dictated primarily by
price and secondarily by availability. The Company does not
anticipate a lack of supply to affect its production; however, a shortage
might cause the Company to pass on higher materials prices to its
buyers.
|
Dependence on One or a Few Major
Customers
|
Presently
the Company does not have any one customer whose loss would have a
substantial impact on the Company's operations.
|
Patents
|
The
Company has eight U.S. Patents:
|
U.S.
Patent No. 5,519,977, "Joist Reinforcing Bracket," a bracket that
reinforces wooden joists with a hole for the passage of a utility
conduit. The Company refers to this as its floor joist patch
kit.
|
U.S.
Patent No. 5,625,997, "Composite Beam," a composite beam that includes an
elongated metal shell and a pierceable insert for receiving nails, screws
or other penetrating fasteners.
|
U.S.
Patent No. 5,832,691, "Composite Beam," a composite beam that includes an
elongated metal shell and a pierceable insert for receiving nails, screws
or other penetrating fasteners. This is a continuation-in-part
of U.S. Patent No. 5,625,997.
|
U.S.
Patent No. 5,921,053, "Internally Reinforced Girder with Pierceable
Nonmetal Components," a girder that includes a pair of c-shaped members
secured together so as to form a hollow box, which permits the girder to
be secured within a building structure with conventional fasteners such as
nails, screws and staples.
|
U.S.
Patent Nos. D472,791S, D472,792S, D472,793S, and D477,210S, all
modifications of Metwood's Reinforcing Bracket, which will be used for
repairs of wood I-joists.
|
Each
of these patents was originally issued to the inventors and Company
founders, Robert Callahan and Ronald B. Shiflett, who licensed these
patents to the Company.
|
Need for Government Approval of Principal
Products
|
The
Company's products must either be sold with an engineer's seal or
applicable building code approval. Once that approval is
obtained, the products can be used in all fifty states. The
Company's Floor Joist Reinforcer received Bureau Officials Code
Association ("BOCA") approval in April 2001. Currently, the
Company's chief engineer has obtained professional licensure in several
states which permit products not building code approved to be sold and
used with his seal. The Company expects his licensure in
a growing number of states to greatly assist in the uniform acceptability
of its products as it expands to new markets.
|
Time Spent During the Last Two Fiscal Years on
Research and Development Activities
|
Approximately
fifteen percent of the Company's time and resources have been spent during
the last two fiscal years researching and developing its metal/wood
products, new product lines, and new patents.
|
Costs and Effects of Compliance with Environmental
Laws
|
The
Company does not incur any costs to comply with environmental
laws. It is an environmentally friendly business in that its
products are fabricated from recycled steel.
|
Number of Total Employees and Number of Full-Time
Employees
|
The
Company had thirty employees at September 30, 2008, twenty-nine of whom
were full time.
|
Results
of Operations
|
Net Income
|
The
Company had net income of $121,611 for the three months ended September
30, 2008, versus $54,559 for the three months ended September 30, 2007, an
increase of $67,052. The increase in net income for the three
months ended September 30, 2008 compared to 2007 was attributable
primarily to lower materials costs in the construction area as a
percentage of gross sales (64% in 2007 versus 49% in
2008). Construction area sales decreased 12% comparing 2008 to
2007, but that decrease was offset by the lowered costs of goods
sold. Some savings also occurred in insurance cost
decreases (new carrier and better workers compensation experience
ratings); lower repairs and maintenance expense; and payroll cost
decreases. Less job installs cut down on the amount of overtime
required, and some exployees volunteered to take time
off.
|
Sales
|
Revenues
were $1,062,347for the
three months ended September 30, 2008 compared to $1,210,168 for the same
period in 2007, a decrease of $147,821, or 12%. The sales
decline for the three-month period in 2008 versus 2007 reflects a general
downtown in the building industry. Although the Company has
sold product in over twenty-five states since July 2007, our local market
is down 20%. Nonetheless, truss sales have increased over 2007, and the
commercial market has overcome some of the residential
downturn. The potential for increased sales volume as the
Company goes forward is enhanced by the fact that we are now an authorized
fabricator for the Dynatruss light-gauge steel truss system, begun in
March 2008.
|
Expenses
|
Total
administrative expenses were $334,651 for the three months ended September
30, 2008, versus $350,616 for the three months ended September 30, 2007, a
decrease of $15,965 (5%). For the three months ended September
30, 2008 versus 2007, insurance costs declined 12%; office expense
decreased 51%; and travel costs declined 54% due to elimination of shows;
however, the savings in these areas was partially offset by increases in
internet costs, repairs and maintenance, and other
expenses.
|
Liquidity and Capital
Reserves
|
On
September 30, 2008, the Company had cash of $58,262 and working capital of
$1,806,386. Net cash provided by operating activities was
$170,835 for the three months ended September, 2008 compared to $83,363
for the three months ended September 30, 2007. The higher
provision of cash from operating activities in the current year resulted
primarily from the decrease in accounts receivable partially offset by a
paydown of accounts payable.
|
Cash
used in investing activities was $30,453 for the three months ended
September 30, 2008, compared to cash used of $104,024 during the same
period in the prior year. Cash flows used in investing
activities for the current period were for shop equipment $452); computers
and peripherals and furniture and fixtures ($8,400); and leasehold and
land improvements ($21,601).
|
Cash
used in financing activities was $150,000 for the three months ended
September 30, 2008 compared to cash provided of $24,814 for the period
ended September 30, 2007. The cash used in 2008 was to pay off
the Company's credit line
balance.

ITEM
4 - CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
|
(a)
Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures.
|
Our
management, with the participation of our chief executive officer and
chief financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure
controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15 under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly
Report on Form 10-Q. In designing and evaluating the disclosure
controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and
procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only
reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In
addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect
the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is
required to apply its judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible
controls and procedures relative to their costs.
|
Based
on our evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial
officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are designed
at a reasonable assurance level and are effective to provide reasonable
assurance that information we are required to disclose in reports that we
file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized
and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange
Commission rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and
communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and
chief financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions
regarding required disclosure.
|
(b)
Changes in internal control over financial reporting.
|
We
regularly review our system of internal control over financial reporting
to ensure we maintain an effective internal control environment. As we
grow geographically and with new product offerings, we continue to create
new processes and controls as well as improve our existing environment to
increase efficiencies. Improvements may include such activities as
implementing new, more efficient systems, consolidating activities, and
migrating processes.
|
There
were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that
occurred during the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q
that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially
affect, our internal control over financial
reporting.
