Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

NOTE 1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation – The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of ZAGG Incorporated (collectively, the “Company” or “ZAGG”) have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).  Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the following disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.  The Company suggests that these condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the  consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company’s 2008 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

These condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) that, in the opinion of management, are necessary to present fairly the financial position and results of operations of the Company for the periods presented.

Operating results for the nine months ended September 30, 2009, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2009.

Nature of Operations The Company designs, manufactures and distributes protective coverings, audio accessories and power solutions for consumer electronic and hand-held devices under the brand names invisibleSHIELD™ and ZAGGaudio™.

Critical Accounting Policies The discussion and analysis of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations are based on the Company’s financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (U.S. GAAP). The preparation of these financial statements requires the Company 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 on-going basis, the Company evaluates its estimates based 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.  Significant estimates include the allowance for doubtful accounts, inventory valuation allowances, sales returns and warranty liability, the useful life of property and equipment and the valuation allowance on deferred tax assets.

Principles of Consolidation  The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of ZAGG Incorporated, and its wholly owned subsidiary ZAGG Europe Ltd.  All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Revenue recognition – The Company records revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists or product delivery has occurred, the sales price to the customer is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured.  The Company’s revenue is derived from sales of its products to retailers, resellers and end consumers and from the fees derived from the sale of exclusive distributor licenses related to the kiosk program.  For sales of product, the Company’s standard shipping terms are FOB shipping point and the Company records revenue when the product is shipped, net of estimated returns and discounts.  For license fees, the Company recognizes revenue on a straight-line basis over the life of the license term.

Any incentives received from vendors are recognized as a reduction of the cost of products. Promotional products given to customers or potential customers are recognized as a cost of sales. Cash incentives provided to our customers are recognized as a reduction of the related sale price, and, therefore, are a reduction in sales.

Reserve for Sales Returns and Warranty Liability – The Company’s return policy generally allows its end users and retailers to return purchased products for refund or in exchange for new products within 30 days of end user purchase.  The Company estimates a reserve for sales returns and records that reserve amount as a reduction of sales and as a sales return reserve liability.  The sales return liability was $335,574 at September 30, 2009 and $291,119 at December 31, 2008.

The Company generally provides the ultimate consumer a warranty with each product and accrues warranty expense at the time of the sale based on the Company’s prior claims history.  Actual warranty costs incurred are charged against the accrual when paid.  During the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, warranty expense and the reserve for warranty liability, respectively, was not material.

Shipping and Handling Costs – Amounts invoiced to customers for shipping and handling are included in sales and were $1,135,934 and $744,293 for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively.  Actual shipping and handling costs to ship products to customers are included in cost of sales and were $3,519,721 and $901,074 for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

Stock-based compensation – As required by generally accepted accounting principles, the Company recognizes the cost resulting from all stock-based payment transactions including shares issued under its stock option plans in the financial statements based upon the fair value of such equity instruments granted.  For the nine months ended September 30, 2009, the Company recognized stock-based compensation expense of $476,084, related to the issuance of common stock and options issued under its stock incentive plan.
 
 
Advertising – Advertising is expensed as incurred. Advertising expenses were $4,168,854 and $2,483,356 for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

Foreign Currency TransactionsThe condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in U.S. Dollars (“USD”).  The company’s primary operations are at the parent level, which uses the USD as its functional currency.

Reclassifications  Certain amounts in the financial statements of the prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation for comparative purposes.
 
Net Income Per Common Share – Basic net income per share is computed by dividing net income by weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during each period.  Diluted net income per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock, common stock equivalents and potentially dilutive securities outstanding during each period.

The calculation above for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008 excludes the exercise of 4,096,953 outstanding warrants and 3,000 outstanding stock options as the exercise of these warrants and stock options would have an antidilutive effect on earnings per share.  The calculation above for the three months ended September 30, 2009 excludes the exercise of 175,000 outstanding warrants and 222,500 outstanding stock options as the exercise of these warrants and stock options would have an anti-dilutive effect on earnings per share.  The calculation above for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 excludes the exercise of 175,000 outstanding warrants and 230,500 outstanding stock options as the exercise of these warrants and stock options would have an antidilutive effect on earnings per share.

NOTE 2 – RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued authoritative guidance to establish the FASB Accounting Standards Codification TM (Codification) as the source of authoritative accounting principles recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities in the preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) in the United States.  Rules and interpretive releases of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) under authority of federal securities laws are also sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants.  The codification shall be effective for financial statements issued for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009.  The codification is not intended to change or alter existing GAAP and is not expected to result in a change in accounting practice for the Company.

In September 2006, FASB issued an authoritative guidance which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. The guidance related to financial assets and financial liabilities were effective during 2008.  With respect to certain nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities, the guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008, and interim periods within those fiscal years.  The implementation did not cause a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In December 2007, the FASB issued authoritative guidance that requires an acquirer to measure the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed and any non-controlling interest in the acquiree at their fair values on the acquisition date, with goodwill being the excess value over the net identifiable assets acquired. The guidance clarifies that a non-controlling interest in a subsidiary should be reported as equity in the consolidated financial statements, consolidated net income should be adjusted to include the net income attributed to the non-controlling interest and consolidated comprehensive income shall be adjusted to include the comprehensive income attributed to the non-controlling interest. The calculation of earnings per share will continue to be based on income amounts attributable to the parent. The guidance is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008.  The implementation of this standard did not cause a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

The guidance is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008. The implementation did not cause a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In May 2009, the FASB issued authoritative guidance establishing general standards of accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued.  The guidance was effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2009.  The implementation of this standard did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

ITEM 2.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 
Certain statements, other than purely historical information, including estimates, projections, statements relating to our business plans, objectives, and expected operating results, and the assumptions upon which those statements are based, are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.   These forward-looking statements generally are identified by the words “believes,” “project,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “estimates,” “intends,” “strategy,” “plan,” “may,” “will,” “would,” “will be,” “will continue,” “will likely result,” and similar expressions.  We intend such forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe-harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, and are including this statement for purposes of complying with those safe-harbor provisions.  Forward-looking statements are based on current expectations and assumptions that are subject to risks and uncertainties which may cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements. Our ability to predict results or the actual effect of future plans or strategies is inherently uncertain.  Factors which could have a material adverse affect on our operations and future prospects include, but are not limited to: changes in economic conditions, legislative/regulatory changes, availability of capital, interest rates, competition, and generally accepted accounting principles. These risks and uncertainties should also be considered in evaluating forward-looking statements and undue reliance should not be placed on such statements.  We undertake no obligation to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.  Further information concerning our business, including additional factors that could materially affect our financial results, is included herein and in our other filings with the SEC.
 
Our Business

Headquartered in Salt Lake City, Utah, ZAGG Incorporated designs, manufactures and distributes protective coverings, audio accessories and power solutions for consumer electronic and hand-held devices under the brand names invisibleSHIELD™ and ZAGGaudio™.  ZAGG has also introduced beta testing of AppSpace.com, an online destination for the fast-growing mobile app market, combined with the networking power of social media.

Our flagship product, invisibleSHIELD, is made from a protective, film covering that was developed originally to protect the leading edges of rotary blades of military helicopters. We determined that this same film product could be configured to fit onto the surface of electronic devices and marketed to consumers for use in protecting such devices from everyday wear and tear; including scratches, scrapes, debris and other surface blemishes. The film also permits touch sensitivity, meaning it can be used on devices that have a touch-screen interface. The invisibleSHIELD film material is highly reliable and durable since it was originally developed for use in a high friction, high velocity context within the aerospace industry. The film provides long lasting protection for the surface of electronic devices subject to normal wear and tear. The film is a form of polyurethane substance, akin to a very thin, pliable, flexible and durable clear plastic that adheres to the surface and shape of the object it is applied to.

The invisibleSHIELD is designed specifically for iPods®, laptops, cell phones, digital cameras, PDAs, watch faces, GPS systems, gaming devices, and other items.  The product is “cut” to fit specific devices and packaged together with a moisture activating solution which makes the invisibleSHIELD adhere to the surface of the device, literally “like a second skin,” and virtually invisible to the eye.  The patent-pending invisibleSHIELD is the first scratch protection solution of its kind on the market.  The invisibleSHIELD is not ornamental, but rather provides a long lasting barrier to preserve the brand new look of the surface of an electronic device.  Currently, ZAGG offers over 4,000 precision pre-cut designs with a lifetime replacement warranty through online channels, big-box retailers, electronics specialty stores, resellers, college bookstores, Mac stores, and mall kiosks.  We plan to increase our product lines to offer new electronic accessories to our tech-savvy customer base, as well as an expanded array of invisibleSHIELD products for other industries.

The ZAGGaudio line of electronics accessories and products was released in late 2008, and focuses on innovation and superior value.  The flagship product within ZAGGaudio is the award winning, Z.buds™.  Other headphone, speaker and audio products have been released and we will release additional products in the ZAGGaudio line in the coming months and years.

Critical Accounting Policies
 
The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based on our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (U.S. GAAP). 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 on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates based 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. Significant estimates include the allowance for doubtful accounts, inventory valuation allowances, sales returns and warranty liability, the useful life of property and equipment and the valuation allowance on deferred tax assets.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued authoritative guidance to establish the FASB Accounting Standards Codification TM (Codification) as the source of authoritative accounting principles recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities in the preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) in the United States.  Rules and interpretive releases of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) under authority of federal securities laws are also sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants.  The codification shall be effective for financial statements issued for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009.  The codification is not intended to change or alter existing GAAP and is not expected to result in a change in accounting practice for us.

In September 2006, FASB issued an authoritative guidance which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. The guidance related to financial assets and financial liabilities were effective during 2008.  With respect to certain nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities, the guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008, and interim periods within those fiscal years.  The implementation did not cause a
material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In December 2007, the FASB issued authoritative guidance that requires an acquirer to measure the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed and any non-controlling interest in the acquiree at their fair values on the acquisition date, with goodwill being the excess value over the net identifiable assets acquired. The guidance clarifies that a non-controlling interest in a subsidiary should be reported as equity in the consolidated financial statements, consolidated net income should be adjusted to include the net income attributed to the non-controlling interest and consolidated comprehensive income shall be adjusted to include the comprehensive income attributed to the non-controlling interest. The calculation of earnings per share will continue to be based on income amounts attributable to the parent. The guidance is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008.  The implementation of this standard did not cause a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In March 2008, the FASB issued authoritative guidance 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 guidance is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008. The implementation did not cause a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
 
15

 
 
In May 2009, the FASB issued authoritative guidance establishing general standards of accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued.  The guidance was effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2009.  The implementation of this standard did not have a material effect on our financial position or results of operations.

Revenue recognition

We record revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists or product delivery has occurred, the sales price to the customer is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured.  Our revenue is derived from sales of our products to retailers, resellers and end consumers and from the sale of distributor license fees.  For sales of product, our standard shipping terms are FOB shipping point and we record revenue when the product is shipped, net of estimated returns and discounts.  For license fees, we recognize revenue on a straight-line basis over the life of the license term.

Any incentives received from vendors are recognized as a reduction of the cost of products. Promotional products given to customers or potential customers are recognized as a cost of sales. Cash incentives provided to our customers are recognized as a reduction of the related sale price, and, therefore, are a reduction in sales.

Reserve for Sales Returns and Warranty Liability

Our return policy generally allows our end users and retailers to return purchased products for refund or in exchange for new products within 30 days of end user purchase. We estimate a reserve for sales returns and record that reserve amount as a reduction of sales and as a sales return reserve liability.

We generally provide the ultimate consumer a warranty with each product and accrue warranty expense at the time of the sale based on our prior claims history.  Actual warranty costs incurred are charged against the accrual when paid.

Results of Operations

THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2009 AND 2008

Net sales

Net sales for the quarter ended September 30, 2009 were $9,728,528 as compared to net sales of $6,854,916 for the quarter ended September 30, 2008, an increase of $2,873,612 or 42%.

For the quarter ended September 30, 2009, our sales mix breakdown was 66% through wholesale channels, 20% through our website to retail customers, 10% through our mall cart and kiosk programs and 4% from shipping and handling charges.  Sales of our invisibleSHIELD product continue to represent the majority of our sales.  We are continuing to see increased demand for our invisibleSHIELD product, particularly from our wholesale distribution channel partners including Best Buy and Radio Shack.

Cost of sales

Cost of sales includes raw materials, packing materials, shipping and fulfillment costs. For the quarter ended September 30, 2009, cost of sales amounted to $4,521,555 or approximately 46% of net sales as compared to cost of sales of $2,416,988 or approximately 35% of net sales for quarter ended September 30, 2008.  The increase in cost of sales as a percentage of net revenues for the quarter ended September 30, 2009 as compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2008 is attributable to the overall sales mix shift to wholesale customers which have a lower average selling price than our internet sales and a decrease in overall internet sales for the quarter ended September 30, 2009.
 
Gross profit

Gross profit for the quarter ended September 30, 2009 was $5,206,973 or approximately 54% of net sales as compared to $4,437,928 or approximately 65% of net sales for the quarter ended September 30, 2008. The decrease in gross profit percentage was due to the sales mix shift from higher margin internet sales to wholesale customers which have a lower average selling price and a decrease in internet sales for the quarter ended September 30, 2009 as compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2008.  There are no assurances that we will continue to recognize similar gross profit margins in the future.

Operating expenses

Total operating expenses for the quarter ended September 30, 2009 were $3,735,685, an increase of $668,463 from total operating expenses for the quarter ended September 30, 2008 of $3,067,222. The increases are primarily attributable to the following:

·  
For the quarter ended September 30, 2009, salaries and related taxes increased by $310,798 to $1,077,390 from $766,592 for the quarter ended September 30, 2008.  The increase is due to the increase in our staff as we continue to build the people infrastructure to meet the demand for our product and continue to develop new products and offerings and compensation expense related to our stock based compensation plan of $190,632.

·
For the quarter ended September 30, 2009, marketing, advertising and promotion expenses were $1,327,126, an increase of $158,053 as compared to $1,169,073 for the quarter ended September 30, 2008.  We continue to invest heavily in the development of the invisibleSHIELD brand through internet key word advertising and through traditional print media, television and radio advertising and through the use of coupons.  We expect our marketing and advertising expenses to continue to be a significant expenditure as our revenues increase and expect to spend increased funds on adverting and promotion of our products as well as sales training.  During the fiscal year 2009, we intend to continue to expand our marketing efforts related to our products.

·  
For the quarter ended September 30, 2009, other selling, general and administrative expenses, net of salaries and related taxes described above, were $1,331,169 as compared to $1,131,557 for the quarter ended September 30, 2008. The changes by category are summarized in the table below:

For the nine months ended September 30, 2009, our sales mix breakdown was 56% through wholesale channels, 32% through our website to retail customers, 8% through our mall cart and kiosk programs and 4% from shipping and handling charges.  Sales of our invisibleSHIELD product continue to represent the majority of our sales.  We are continuing to see increased demand for our invisibleSHIELD product, particularly from our wholesale distribution channel partners including Best Buy and Radio Shack.

Cost of sales

Cost of sales includes raw materials, packing materials, shipping and fulfillment costs.  For the nine months ended September 30, 2009, cost of sales amounted to $11,055,903 or approximately 41% of net sales as compared to cost of sales of $3,920,003 or approximately 31% of net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2008.  The increase in cost of sales as a percentage of net revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2008 is attributable to the overall sales mix shift to wholesale customers which have a lower average selling price than our internet sales which have historically represented a larger percentage of the total sales.

Gross profit

Gross profit for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 was $15,908,256 or approximately 59% of net sales as compared to $8,540,809 or approximately 69% of net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2008. The decrease in gross profit percentage was primarily due to the sales mix shift from higher margin internet sales to wholesale customers which have a lower average selling price.  There are no assurances that we will continue to recognize similar gross profit margins in the future.

Operating expenses

Total operating expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 were $10,969,966, an increase of $3,771,072 from total operating expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 of $7,198,894.  The increases are primarily attributable to the following:

·  
For the nine months ended September 30, 2009, salaries and related taxes increased by $550,714 to $2,998,223 from $2,136,712 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008.  The increase is due to the increase in our staff as we continue to build the people infrastructure to meet the demand for our product and continue to develop new products and offerings and compensation expense related to our stock based compensation plan of $498,781.

·  
For the nine months ended September 30, 2009, marketing, advertising and promotion expenses were $4,168,854, an increase of $1,685,498 as compared to $2,483,356 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008.  We continue to invest heavily in the development of the invisibleSHIELD brand through internet key word advertising and through traditional print media, television and radio advertising and through the use of coupons.  We expect our marketing and advertising expenses to continue to be a significant expenditure as our revenues increase and expect to spend increased funds on adverting and promotion of our products as well as sales training.  During the fiscal year 2009, we intend to continue to expand our marketing efforts related to our products.

The changes by category are summarized in the table below:

Income from operations

We reported income from operations of $4,938,290 for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 as compared to income from operations of $1,341,915 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008, an increase of $3,596,375.  The increase in income from operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2008 is primarily attributable to our overall increased revenue growth due to increased market penetration and product offerings and the continued expansion of our distribution channels to include additional retail outlets.

Other income

For the nine months ended September 30, 2009, total other income was $76,727 as compared to other income of $174,599 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008.  The decrease is primarily attributed to increased interest expense from our credit facility and decreased interest income related to short-term loans and interest earned on our bank balances.

Net income

As a result of these factors, we reported net income of $3,130,585 or $0.15 per share on a fully diluted basis for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 as compared to net income of $950,278 or $0.05 per share on a fully diluted basis for the nine months ended September 30, 2008.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity is the ability of a company to generate funds to support its current and future operations, satisfy its liabilities and otherwise operate on an ongoing basis.

This increase in working capital is primarily attributable to the overall increase in current assets of $8,144,590 due to increased cash balance of $1,037,127 from increased sales and proceeds from the exercise of options and warrants, increased inventories of $1,575,053, increased accounts receivable of $2,284,525 from increased sales on account to wholesale customers, increased prepaid expenses and other current assets of $3,329,548 from deposits for inventory and our contribution to HzO, decreased deferred revenue of $96,853, decreased accrued liabilities of $76,109 and decreased notes payable of $20,223, partially offset by increased deferred tax liabilities of $1,235,948, increased accounts payable of $847,445, and increased sales return liability of $44,445, increased accrued wages and wage related expenses of $29,974 and decreased deferred tax assets of $81,663.

Net cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 was $2,862,559 attributable to proceeds from the exercise of options and warrants of $2,882,782, partially offset by payments on short-term debt of $20,223.

We reported a net increase in cash for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 of $1,037,127.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of September 30, 2009, there were no off balance sheet arrangements.

Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

A smaller reporting company is not required to provide the information required by this Item.

Item 4T.  Controls and Procedures

As of the date of this report, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15b under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.  Based on their review of our disclosure controls and procedures, they have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely alerting him to material information relating to us that is required to be included in our periodic SEC filings. Further, there were no significant changes in the internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect these disclosure controls after the evaluation date and the date of this report. Nor were there any significant deficiencies or material weaknesses in such disclosure controls and procedures requiring corrective actions. As a result, no corrective actions were taken.  We have made no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting in the most recent quarterly reporting period that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

Limitations on the Effectiveness of Internal Controls

Our management does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting will necessarily prevent all fraud and material error. An internal control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the internal control. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Over time, control may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
