|

Effective
March 23, 2007, the holders of approximately $1,385,000 outstanding
principal amount of our subordinated debt agreed to extend the maturity
date of the debt from September 30, 2007 to September 30, 2008. In
consideration for the extension of the due date of the subordinated
debt,
we extended the expiration date of warrants held by the debtholders
for
the purchase of 90,000 of our common shares from September 30, 2007
to
September 30, 2008. See Item 12 of this Annual
Report.
|
· |
Effective
March 23, 2007, the holder of our Series A preferred shares exchanged
such
shares for an equal number of Series B preferred shares. The terms
of the
Series B preferred shares are identical to those of the Series A
preferred
shares, except that they are mandatorily redeemable on April 30,
2008 (as
opposed to April 30, 2007 for the Series A preferred shares). See
Item 12
of this Annual Report.
|
· |
On
February 2, 2007, Robert Wallach resigned as a
director.
|
· |
In
March 2007, Commercial Mutual Insurance Company’s Board of Directors
adopted a resolution to convert Commercial Mutual from an advance
premium
insurance company to a stock property and casualty insurance company.
We
hold surplus notes of Commercial Mutual in the aggregate principal
amount
of $3,750,000. In the event the conversion occurs, we may be able
to
convert such notes into a controlling equity interest in Commercial
Mutual. See Items 1(b) and 6 of this Annual Report.
|
· |
On
January 31, 2006, we purchased from Eagle Insurance Company two surplus
notes issued by Commercial Mutual Insurance Company in the aggregate
principal amount of $3,750,000 plus accrued interest of $1,794,688.
Commercial Mutual is a New York property and casualty insurer. Eagle
is a
New Jersey property and casualty insurer that is being operated by
the New
Jersey Department of Banking and Insurance pursuant to an Order of
Rehabilitation. Eagle owns approximately 10% of our outstanding common
shares. See Items 1(b), 6, 11 and 12 of this Annual
Report.
|
· |
On
July 28, 2006, we and our premium finance subsidiary, Payments Inc.,
entered into a new revolving line of credit with Manufacturers and
Traders
Trust Company (“M&T”), which provides for a decrease in the credit
line to $20,000,000 and the elimination of M&T’s agreement to arrange
an additional $10,000,000 credit facility with other lenders on a
“best
efforts” basis (see “Developments During 2004” below). The new revolver
bears interest, at our option, at either M&T’s prime lending rate
(8.25% at December 31, 2006) or LIBOR (5.35% at December 31, 2006)
plus
2.25%, and matures on June 30, 2008. The line of credit also allows
for a
$2,500,000 term loan (of the $20,000,000 credit line availability)
to be
used to provide liquidity for ongoing working capital purposes. Any
draws
against the term line bear interest at LIBOR plus 2.75%. Concurrently
with
the obtaining of the new credit line, we borrowed $1,300,000 as a
draw
against the term line. See Items 6 and 7 of this Annual Report.
|
· |
During
2005, we utilized our line of credit with M&T to repay an aggregate of
$2,000,000 of our $3,500,000 subordinated
debt.
|
· |
Effective
May 25, 2005, the holders of the remaining $1,500,000 outstanding
principal amount of our subordinated debt agreed to extend the maturity
date of the debt from January 10, 2006 to September 30, 2007. This
extension was given to satisfy a requirement of M&T that arose in
connection with the increase in our revolving line of credit to
$25,000,000 and the extension of the line to June 30, 2007, as described
under “Developments During 2004” below. In consideration for the extension
of the due date of the subordinated debt, we extended the expiration
date
of warrants held by the debtholders for the purchase of 97,500 of
our
common shares from January 10, 2006 to September 30, 2007.
|
· |
On
November 15, 2005, we entered into an agreement for the acquisition
of
substantially all of the assets of Accurate Agency, Inc., Louisons
Associates Limited and Accurate Agency of Western New York, Inc.,
insurance brokerage firms with a total of four offices located in
and
around Rochester, New York that operate under the Accurate Agency
brand.
The transaction was consummated effective as of January 1, 2006.
The
acquisition is part of our strategy to expand our operations into
other
regions of New York State.
|
· |
Effective
August 26, 2004, we effected a one-for-five reverse split of our
common
shares.
|
· |
On
October 7, 2004, our common shares began trading on The NASDAQ Capital
Market (formerly called The NASDAQ Small Cap
Market).
|
· |
In
December 2004, we increased our premium finance line of credit with
M&T from $18,000,000 to $25,000,000 and extended the term of the line
to June 30, 2007. Subject to certain conditions, M&T agreed to arrange
an additional $10,000,000 credit facility with other lenders on a
“best
efforts” basis. The terms of the new line of credit agreement were similar
to our previous line of credit agreement with M&T, except that the
interest rate was reduced from M&T’s prime lending rate plus 1.5% to,
at our option, either (i) M&T’s prime lending rate or (ii) LIBOR plus
2.5%, and the amount that we could borrow was raised from 80% to
85% of
eligible premium finance receivables.

Net
cash used in operating activities during the year ended December
31, 2006
was $315,607 primarily due the following: (i) a decrease in premiums
payable of $1,098,712, the accretion of discount on notes receivable
of
$905,500 and a decrease in income taxes payable of $330,262 offset
by (ii)
our net income for the year of $508,385, our depreciation and amortization
expense of $456,614, an increase in deferred income taxes of $360,000
and
an increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $208,522.
Premiums
payable have declined due to a change in our mix of business. We
finance
premiums for assigned risk plans, where the loan is funded in two
stages,
generally over a 30 day period. We also finance premiums with carriers
where the entire loan is funded at inception. As our mix of business
has
changed to include fewer assigned risk loans and more direct carrier
loans, there has been a reduction in the amount of our premium liability.
The decrease in income taxes payable and increase in deferred income
taxes
is the result of the accretion of the discount on the Commercial
Mutual
note receivable not being currently taxable. The increase in accounts
payable and accrued expenses was attributable to Accurate as well
as our
ability to increase payment terms of certain vendors.
|
· |
Though
fluctuations in our premium finance business impact our cash position
and
daily operations, our cash flows from operating activities do not
reflect
changes in the premium finance contract receivables or borrowing
under our
revolving credit facility associated with that business. Changes
in the
premium finance contract receivables are considered investing activities
as they include the making and collection of loans and borrowings
under
our revolving line of credit are considered financing
activities.
|
· |
Cash
of $2,433,742 was used in investing activities during the year ended
December 31, 2006 primarily due to following: (i) the use of $3,075,141
in
cash to purchase the surplus notes issued by Commercial
Mutual
and the use of $1,000,786 in cash to purchase the Accurate agency
and
other business acquisitions, offset by (ii) a decrease in our net
finance
contracts receivable of $1,737,168. This decrease was the result
of a
reduction in the dollar amount of premium finance contracts entered
into
in 2006.
|
· |
Net
cash provided by financing activities during the year ended December
31,
2006 was $1,984,272 primarily due to the following: (i) proceeds
of
$50,914,830 from our revolving credit line from M&T for premium
finance purposes and $1,300,000 for the purchase of the surplus notes
issued by Commercial
Mutual,
offset by (ii) payments of $49,739,009 on the revolving credit line
and
$593,846 of long-term debt.

1.
|
Organization
and Nature of Business
|
DCAP
Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries (referred to herein as "we" or "us")
operate
a network of retail offices and franchise operations engaged in the
sale
of retail auto, motorcycle, boat, business, and homeowner's insurance,
and
provide premium financing of insurance policies for customers of
our
offices as well as customers of non-affiliated entities. We also
provide
automobile club services for roadside emergencies and tax preparation
services.
|
|
2.
|
Summary
of Significant Accounting Policies
|
Principles
of consolidation -
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts
of
all subsidiaries and joint ventures in which we have a majority voting
interest or voting control. All significant intercompany accounts
and
transactions have been eliminated.
|
|
Commission
and fee income - We
recognize commission revenue from insurance policies at the beginning
of
the contract period. Refunds of commissions on the cancellation of
insurance policies are reflected at the time of cancellation.
|
|
Franchise
fee revenue on initial franchisee fees is recognized when substantially
all of our contractual requirements under the franchise agreement
are
completed. Franchisees also pay a monthly franchise fee plus an applicable
percentage of advertising expense. We are obligated to provide marketing
and training support to each franchisee. During the years ended December
31, 2006 and 2005, approximately $50,000 and $65,000, respectively,
was
recognized as initial franchise fee income.
|
|
Fees
for income tax preparation are recognized when the services are completed.
Automobile club dues are recognized equally over the contract
period.
|
|
Allowance
for doubtful accounts -
Management must make estimates of the uncollectability of accounts
receivable. Management specifically analyzed accounts receivable
and
analyzes historical bad debts, customer concentrations, customer
credit-worthiness, current economic trends and changes in customer
payment
terms when evaluating the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful
accounts.
|
|
Finance
income, fees and receivables - For
our premium finance operations, we are using the interest method
to
recognize interest income over the life of each loan in accordance
with
Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (“SFAS”) No. 91, "Accounting
for Nonrefundable Fees and Costs Associated with Originating or Acquiring
Loans and Initial Direct Costs of Leases."
|
|
Upon
the establishment of a premium finance contract, we record the gross
loan
payments as a receivable with a corresponding reduction for deferred
interest. The deferred interest is amortized to interest income using
the
interest method over the life of each loan. The weighted average
interest
rate charged with respect to financed insurance policies was approximately
26.49% and 26.55% per annum for the years ended December 31, 2006
and
2005, respectively.
|
Upon
completion of collection efforts, after cancellation of the underlying
insurance policies, any uncollected earned interest or fees are charged
off.
|
|
Allowance
for finance receivable losses
-
Customers who purchase insurance policies are often unable to pay
the
premium in a lump sum and, therefore, require extended payment terms.
Premium finance involves making a loan to the customer that is backed
by
the unearned portion of the insurance premiums being financed. No
credit
checks are made prior to the decision to extend credit to a customer.
Losses on finance receivables include an estimate of future credit
losses
on premium finance accounts. Credit losses on premium finance accounts
occur when the unearned premiums received from the insurer upon
cancellation of a financed policy are inadequate to pay the balance
of the
premium finance account. After collection attempts are exhausted,
the
remaining account balance, including unrealized interest, is written
off.
We review historical trends of such losses relative to finance receivable
balances to develop estimates of future losses. However, actual write-offs
may differ materially from the write-off estimates that we used.
For the
years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, the provision for finance
receivable losses was approximately $650,000 and $900,000 (before
estimated recoveries of approximately $65,000 which reduced the provision
for finance receivable losses), respectively, and actual principal
write-offs for such year, net of actual and anticipated recoveries
of
previous write-offs, were approximately $679,000 and $732,000,
respectively. If our provision for finance receivable losses was
understated by 10% because our actual write-offs were greater than
anticipated, the effect would have been a reduction in our basic
earnings
per share by approximately $0.01 and $0.02 for the years ended December
31, 2006 and 2005, respectively.

Goodwill
and intangible assets
-
Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over fair value
of
identifiable net assets acquired from business acquisitions. In accordance
with SFAS No. 142, “Goodwill
and Other Intangible Assets,” goodwill
is no longer amortized, but is reviewed for impairment on an annual
basis
and between annual tests in certain circumstances. We conduct our
annual
impairment test for goodwill at the beginning of the first quarter.
We
performed the required impairment test for fiscal years 2006 and
2005 and
found no impairment of goodwill. There can be no assurance that future
goodwill impairment tests will not result in a charge to earnings.
|
|
Other
Intangibles
- SFAS
No. 142 requires purchased intangible assets other than goodwill to
be amortized over their useful lives unless those lives are determined
to
be indefinite. Purchased intangible assets are carried at cost less
accumulated amortization. Definite-lived intangible assets, which
include
customer and phone, have been assigned an estimated finite life and
are
amortized on a straight-line basis over periods ranging from 3 to
15
years.
|
|
Property
and equipment
- Property
and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is provided using
the
straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related
assets. Leasehold improvements are being amortized using the straight-line
method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets or the
remaining term of the lease.
|
|
Deferred
loan costs
- Deferred
loan costs are amortized on a straight-line basis over the related
term of
the loan.
|
|
Concentration
of credit risk - We
invest our excess cash in deposits and money market accounts with
major
financial institutions and have not experienced losses related to
these
investments.
|
|
All
finance contracts receivable are repayable in less than one year.
In the
event of a default by the borrower, we are entitled to cancel the
underlying insurance policy financed and receive a refund for the
unused
term of such policy from the insurance carrier. We structure the
repayment
terms in an attempt to minimize principal losses on finance contract
receivables.
|
|
We
perform ongoing credit evaluations and generally do not require
collateral.
|
|
Cash
and cash equivalents -
We
consider all highly liquid debt instruments with a maturity of three
months or less, as well as bank money market accounts, to be cash
equivalents.

Estimates
-
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities
and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the
financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses
during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those
estimates. The most significant estimates include the allowance for
finance receivable losses. It is reasonably possible that events
could
occur during the upcoming year which could change such
estimates.
|
|
Net
income per share -
Basic net income per share is computed by dividing income available
to
common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares
outstanding. Diluted earnings per share reflect, in periods in which
they
have a dilutive effect, the impact of common shares issuable upon
exercise
of stock options and conversion of mandatorily redeemable preferred
stock.

The

Advertising
costs -
Advertising costs are charged to operations when the advertising
first
takes place. Included in general and administrative expenses are
advertising costs approximating $479,000 and $601,000 for the years
ended
December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively.
|
|
Impairment
of long-lived assets -
We
review long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles to
be held
and used for impairment on an annual basis and whenever events or
changes
in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset exceeds
the
fair value of the asset. If other events or changes in circumstances
indicate that the carrying amount of an asset that we expect to hold
and
use may not be recoverable, we will estimate the undiscounted future
cash
flows expected to result from the use of the asset or its eventual
disposition, and recognize an impairment loss. The impairment loss,
if
determined to be necessary, would be measured as the amount by which
the
carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets.
A
similar evaluation is made in relation to goodwill, with any impairment
loss measured as the amount by which the carrying value of such goodwill
exceeds the expected undiscounted future cash
flows.

Income
taxes -
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based upon the
differences between financial reporting and tax bases of assets and
liabilities, and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws
that
will be in effect when the differences are expected to
reverse.
|
|
Share-based
compensation - Prior
to January 1, 2006, we accounted for share-based compensation under
the recognition and measurement principles of Accounting Principles
Board
Opinion No. 25, "Accounting
for Stock Issued to Employees"
("APB 25"). Therefore, we measured compensation expense for our
share-based compensation using the intrinsic value method, that is,
as the
excess, if any, of the fair market value of our stock at the grant
date
over the amount required to be paid to acquire the stock, and provided
the
disclosures required by SFAS 123, "Accounting
for Stock-Based Compensation"
(“SFAS 123”) and SFAS 148, "Accounting
for Stock-Based Compensation-Transition and Disclosure"
(“SFAS 148”).
Effective
January 1, 2006, we began recording compensation expense associated
with stock options and other equity-based compensation in accordance
with
SFAS
No. 123 (revised 2004), “Share-Based
Payment”
(“SFAS 123(R)”) using the modified prospective transition method and
therefore we have not restated results for prior periods. Under the
modified prospective transition method, share-based compensation
expense
for 2006 includes (1) compensation expense for all share-based awards
granted on or after January 1, 2006 as determined based on the
grant-date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions
of
SFAS 123(R) and (2) compensation expense for share-based
compensation awards granted prior to, but not yet vested as of,
January 1, 2006, based on the grant date fair value estimated in
accordance with the original provisions of SFAS 123. We recognize
compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite
service
period of the award.
Pro
forma financial information - For
stock options granted prior to the adoption of SFAS 123(R), the
following table illustrates the pro forma effect on net income and
earnings per common share for the year ended December 31, 2005, as

costs
were incurred during the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005,

Comprehensive
income (loss) -
Comprehensive income (loss) refers to revenue, expenses, gains and
losses
that under generally accepted accounting principles are included
in
comprehensive income but are excluded from net income as these amounts
are
recorded directly as an adjustment to stockholders' equity. At December
31, 2006 and 2005, there were no such adjustments
required.

Reclassifications
-
|
|
Certain
reclassifications (including the reclassification of the premium
finance
revenue (interest and late fees) write-offs from the “Provision for
finance receivable losses” to “Premium finance revenue” (see below)) have
been made to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended
December 31, 2005 to conform to the classifications used for the
year
ended December 31, 2006. Beginning in 2005, we were able to obtain
a
complete detail of the interest and fee write-offs for the premium
finance
receivables. Effective January 1, 2006, we began reporting the
premium finance revenue, net of the interest and fee write-offs as
illustrated below.

accounting pronouncements
|
|
In
July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Financial Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting
for Uncertainty in Income Taxes — an interpretation of FASB Statement No.
109”
(“FIN 48”), which clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in tax
positions. FIN 48 requires that we recognize the impact of a tax
position
in our financial statements if that position is more likely than
not to be
sustained on audit, based on the technical merits of the position.
The
provisions of FIN 48 are effective in the first quarter of 2007,
with the
cumulative effect of the change in accounting principle, if any,
recorded
as an adjustment to opening retained earnings. We are currently evaluating
the impact of adopting FIN 48 on our consolidated financial
statements.
|
|
In
September 2006, the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") released
Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 108, “Considering
the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements When Quantifying Misstatements
in
Current Year Financial Statements”
(“SAB 108”). SAB 108 provides interpretive guidance on the SEC’s views
regarding the process of quantifying the materiality of misstatements
in
the financial statements. SAB 108 is effective for fiscal years ending
after November 15, 2006, and early application for the first interim
period of the same fiscal year is encouraged. The application of
SAB 108
did not have a material effect on our financial position or results
of
operations as of December 31, 2006 or for the year then ended.
|
|
In
September 2006, the FASB issued Statement No. 157, “Fair
Value Measurements”
(“SFAS 157”). SFAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework and
gives guidance regarding the methods used in measuring fair value,
and
expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS 157 is effective
for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after
November
15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years. We are currently
evaluating the impact of adopting SFAS 157 on our consolidated financial
statements.

In
September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 158, “Employers'
Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement
Plans”
("SFAS
158"). SFAS 158 requires an employer to recognize the over-funded or
underfunded status of a defined benefit post-retirement plan as an
asset
or liability in its balance sheet and to recognize changes in funded
status in the year in which the changes occur through comprehensive
income. SFAS 158 will have no impact on our financial position or
results
of operations.
|
|
In
January 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, “The
Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities
—
Including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115”
(“SFAS No. 159”). SFAS No. 159 is intended 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. It also establishes presentation and disclosure requirements
designed to facilitate comparisons between entities that choose different
measurement attributes for similar types of assets and liabilities.
The
statement does not affect any existing accounting literature that
requires
certain assets and liabilities to be carried at fair value, and it
does
not establish requirements for recognizing dividend income, interest
income or interest expense. It also does not eliminate disclosure
requirements included in other accounting standards. The provisions
of
SFAS 159 are effective for the fiscal year beginning after
November 15, 2007. We are currently evaluating the impact of the
provisions of SFAS No. 159.

Business
Acquisitions
|
Effective
January 1, 2006, we acquired substantially all of the assets of Accurate
Agency of Western New York, Inc., Louisons Associates Limited and
Accurate
Agency, Inc. (collectively, “Accurate”), insurance brokerage firms with a
total of four offices located in and around Rochester, New York.
The
acquisition allows for the expansion of our geographical
footprint.
|
|
The
aggregate purchase price was $1,600,000, including $800,000 of cash
with
the balance paid through the issuance of an $800,000 non-interest
bearing
note payable over 72 months commencing on January 10, 2007. The note
has
been recorded at its estimated present value of $612,481. The purchase
price of $1,447,022, including transaction costs of $34,541, was

over
a weighted average estimated useful life of four years. Our consolidated
statement of income for the year ended December 31, 2006 includes
the
revenue and expenses of Accurate and Mid-Hudson from January 2006.
Had the

Purchase
of Notes Receivable

On
January 31, 2006, we purchased from Eagle Insurance Company (“Eagle”) two
surplus notes issued by Commercial Mutual Insurance Company (“CMIC”) in
the aggregate principal amount of $3,750,000 (the “Surplus Notes”), plus
accrued interest of $1,794,688. The aggregate purchase price for
the
Surplus Notes was $3,075,141, of which $1,303,434 was paid to Eagle
by
delivery of a six month promissory note which provided for interest
at the
rate of 7.5% per annum. The promissory note was paid in full on July
28,
2006. CMIC is a New York property and casualty insurer. Eagle is
a New
Jersey property and casualty insurer whose business is being conducted
by
the Commissioner of the New Jersey Department of Banking and Insurance
under an Order of Rehabilitation. Eagle owns approximately 10% of
our
outstanding common stock. The Surplus Notes acquired by us are past
due
and provide for interest at the prime rate or 8.5% per annum, whichever
is
less. Payments of principal and interest on the Surplus Notes may
only be
made out of the surplus of CMIC and require the approval of the New
York
State Department of Insurance. During the year ended December 31,
2006,
interest payments totaling $250,000 were received. The discount on
the
Surplus Notes and the accrued interest at the time of acquisition
are
being accreted over a 30 month period, the estimated period to collect
such amounts. Such accretion amount, together with interest on the
Surplus
Notes for the period ended December 31, 2006, is included in our
Statement
of Income as “Interest income-notes receivable.”
In
March 2007, CMIC’s Board of Directors adopted a resolution to convert CMIC
from an advance premium insurance company to a stock property and
casualty
insurance company. In the event the conversion occurs, we may be
able to
convert our notes into a controlling equity interest in
CMIC.

Revolving
Credit Facility
|
On
December 27, 2004, we entered into a revolving line of credit (the
“Old
Revolver”) with Manufacturers and Traders Trust Co. (the “Bank”), which
provided for an increase in the credit line to $25,000,000. Subject
to
certain conditions, the Bank had agreed to arrange an additional
$10,000,000 credit facility with other lenders on a "best efforts"
basis.
The Old Revolver bore interest, at our option, at either (i) the
Bank's
prime lending rate (7.25% at December 31, 2005) or (ii) LIBOR (4.34%
at
December 31, 2005) plus 2.5%, and was to mature on June 30, 2007.
We could
borrow against the line to the extent of 85% of eligible premium
finance
receivables. As
of December 31, 2005, $9,776,524 was outstanding under the Old Revolver.
|
|
On
July 28, 2006, we and our premium finance subsidiary, Payments, Inc.,
entered into a new revolving line of credit (the “New Revolver”) with the
Bank, which provides for a decrease in the credit line to $20,000,000
and
the elimination of the Bank’s agreement to arrange an additional
$10,000,000 credit facility with other lenders on a “best efforts” basis.
The New Revolver bears interest, at our option, at either the Bank’s prime
lending rate (8.25% at December 31, 2006) or LIBOR (5.35% at December
31,
2006) plus 2.25%, and matures on June 30, 2008. The line of credit
also
allows for a $2,500,000 term loan (of the $20,000,000 credit line
availability) to be used to provide liquidity for ongoing working
capital
purposes. Any draws against the term line bear interest at LIBOR
plus
2.75%. As of July 28, 2006, we made our first draw against the term
line
of $1,300,000. The draw is repayable in quarterly principal installments
of $130,000 each, commencing September 1, 2006. The remaining principal
balance is payable on June 30, 2008. Interest is payable monthly.
The New
Revolver eliminates the personal guaranty required of our CEO of
$1,250,000 but continues his obligation on an unlimited wind-down
guaranty
and his personal guaranty as to misrepresentations that relate to
dishonest or fraudulent acts committed by him or known but not timely
reported by him. The New Revolver also allows for a reduction of
life
insurance coverage on the life of our CEO from $4,000,000 to
$1,500,000.

The
New Revolver is secured by substantially all of the assets of our
premium
finance subsidiary, Payments, Inc., and is guaranteed by DCAP Group,

insurance policy. Under our revolving line of credit entered into
in July
2006, our Chairman and CEO is obligated on a unlimited wind-down

|
On
May 8, 2003, we issued 904 shares of $.01 par value 5.0% Series A
Preferred Stock in connection with the acquisition of substantially
all of
the assets of AIA. The Series A Preferred Stock has a liquidation
preference of $1,000 per share. Dividends on the Series A Preferred
Stock
are cumulative and are payable in cash.
|
|
Each
share of the Series A Preferred Stock is convertible at the option
of the
holder at any time into shares of our Common Stock, par value $.01
per
share, at a conversion rate of $2.50 per share.
|
|
On
January 15, 2005, the preferred stockholder converted 124 shares
of Series
A Preferred Stock into 49,600 shares of our Common
Stock.
|
|
Subject
to legal availability of funds, the Series A Preferred Stock was
mandatorily redeemable by us for cash at its liquidation preference
on
April 30, 2007 (unless previously converted into our Common Stock).
In
March 2007, the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock agreed to
exchange
the Series A Preferred Stock for a new Series B Preferred Stock that
is
mandatorily redeemable by us for cash at its liquidation preference
on
April 30, 2008 (unless previously converted into our Common Stock).
Redemption of the Series B Preferred Stock can occur prior to April
30,
2008 upon a substantial sale by us, as defined. The terms of the
Series B
Preferred Stock are the same as the Series A Preferred Stock with
the
exception of the redemption date.
|

In
accordance with SFAS No. 150, "Accounting

Warrants
- On
July 10, 2003, in connection with the issuance of the subordinated
debt,
we issued warrants to purchase 105,000 shares of our Common Stock
at an
exercise price of $6.25 per share (the "Warrants"). The Warrants
were
valued at $147,000 and were being amortized as additional interest
expense
over the term of the associated debt. The Warrants were scheduled
to
expire on January 10, 2006. Effective May 25, 2005, the holders of
$1,500,000 outstanding principal amount of our subordinated debt
agreed to
extend the maturity date of the debt from January 10, 2006 to September
30, 2007. This extension was given to satisfy a requirement of our
premium
finance lender that arose in connection with the increase in our
revolving
line of credit to $25,000,000 and the extension of the line to June
30,
2007. In consideration for the extension of the due date of our
subordinated debt, we extended the expiration date of Warrants held
by the
debt holders for the purchase of 97,500 shares of our Common Stock
from
January 10, 2006 to September 30, 2007. The extension of the Warrants
was
valued at approximately $148,000 and is being amortized as additional
interest expense over the extension period. In March 2007, holders
of
approximately $1,385,000 of the principal amount of the subordinated
loan
agreed to extend the maturity date of this loan from September 30,
2007 to
September 30, 2008. In consideration for the extension of the due
date of
our subordinated debt, we extended the expiration date of Warrants
held by
the debt holders for the purchase of 90,000 shares of our common
stock
from September 30, 2007 to September 30,

Stock
Options -
In
November 1998, we adopted the 1998 Stock Option Plan, which provides
for
the issuance of incentive stock options and non-statutory stock options.
Under this plan, options to purchase not more than 400,000 shares
of our
Common Stock were permitted to be granted, at a price to be determined
by
our Board of Directors or the Stock Option Committee at the time
of grant.
During 2002, we increased the number of shares of Common Stock authorized
to be issued pursuant to the 1998 Stock Option Plan to 750,000. Incentive
stock options granted under this plan expire no later than ten years
from
date of grant (except no later than five years for a grant to a 10%
stockholder). Our Board of Directors or the Stock Option Committee
will
determine the expiration date with respect to non-statutory options
granted under this plan.
|
|
In
December 2005, our shareholders ratified the adoption of the 2005
Equity
Participation Plan, which provides for the issuance of incentive
stock
options, non-statutory stock options and restricted stock. Under
this
plan, a maximum of 300,000 shares of Common Stock may be issued pursuant
to options granted and restricted stock issued. Incentive stock options
granted under this plan expire no later than ten years from date
of grant
(except no later than five years for a grant to a 10% stockholder).
Our
Board of Directors or the Stock Option Committee will determine the
expiration date with respect to non-statutory options, and the vesting
provisions for restricted stock, granted under this
plan.
|
|
Effective
January 1, 2006, our plans are accounted for in accordance with the
recognition and measurement provisions of SFAS No. 123(R), which
replaces
SFAS No. 123 and supersedes APB 25, and related interpretations.
FAS
123(R) requires compensation costs related to share-based payment
transactions, including employee stock options, to be recognized
in the
financial statements. In addition, we adhere to the guidance set
forth
within SEC SAB No. 107, which provides the Staff's views regarding
the
interaction between SFAS 123(R) and certain SEC rules and regulations
and
provides interpretations with respect to the valuation of share-based
payments for public companies.
|
|
Prior
to January 1, 2006, we accounted for similar transactions in accordance
with APB 25 which employed the intrinsic value method of measuring
compensation cost. Accordingly, compensation expense was not recognized
for fixed stock options if the exercise price of the option equaled
or
exceeded the fair value of the underlying stock at the grant
date.
|
|
While
SFAS 123 encouraged recognition of the fair value of all stock-based
awards on the date of grant as an expense over the vesting period,
companies were permitted to continue to apply the intrinsic value-based
method of accounting prescribed by APB 25 and disclose certain pro
forma
amounts as if the fair value approach of SFAS 123 had been applied.
In
December 2002, SFAS No. 148, “Accounting
for Stock-Based Compensation-Transition and Disclosure,”
an amendment of SFAS 123, was issued, which, in addition to providing
alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair
value
method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation, required
more
prominent pro forma disclosures in both the annual and interim financial
statements. We complied with these disclosure requirements for all
applicable periods prior to January 1, 2006.

In
adopting SFAS 123(R), we applied the modified prospective approach
to
transition. Under the modified prospective approach, the provisions
of
SFAS 123(R) are to be applied to new awards and to awards modified,
repurchased, or cancelled after the required effective date. Additionally,
compensation cost for the portion of awards for which the requisite
service has not been rendered that are outstanding as of the required
effective date shall be recognized as the requisite service is rendered
on
or after the required effective date. The compensation cost for that
portion of awards shall be based on the grant-date fair value of
those
awards as calculated for either recognition or pro-forma disclosures
under
SFAS 123.
|
|
As
a result of the adoption of SFAS 123(R), our results for the year
ended
December 31, 2006 include share-based compensation expense totaling
approximately $30,000 and a tax benefit of approximately $13,500.
Such
amounts have been included in the Consolidated Statement of Income
within
general and administrative expenses. Stock compensation expense and
tax
benefit recorded under APB 25 in the Consolidated Statements of Income
for
the year ended December 31, 2005 was $0.
Stock
option compensation expense in 2006 is the estimated fair value of
options
granted amortized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service
period for entire portion of the award less an estimate for anticipated
forfeitures.
|
|
The
weighted average estimated fair value of stock options granted in
the
years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005 was $1.46 and 1.85, respectively,
per share. The fair value of options at the date of grant was estimated
using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. During 2006, we took
into
consideration the guidance under SFAS 123(R) and SAB No. 107 when
reviewing and updating assumptions. The expected volatility is based
upon
historical volatility of our stock and other contributing factors.
The
expected term is based upon observation of actual time elapsed between
date of grant and exercise of options for all employees. Previously
such
assumptions were determined based on historical
data.
|
The
fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant
using
the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The following weighted
average
assumptions were used for grants during the years ended December 31,
2006 and 2005:

The
Black-Scholes option valuation model was developed for use in estimating
the fair value of traded options, which have no vesting restrictions
and
are fully transferable. In addition, option valuation models require
the
input of highly subjective assumptions including the expected stock
price
volatility. Because our stock options have characteristics significantly
different from those of traded options, and because changes in the
subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value
estimate, in management's opinion, the existing models do not necessarily
provide a reliable single measure of the fair value of our stock
options.

The
aggregate intrinsic value of options outstanding and options exercisable
at December 31, 2006 is calculated as the difference between the
exercise
price of the underlying options and the market price of our common
stock
for the shares that had exercise prices, that were lower than the
$3.06
closing price of our common stock on December 29, 2006. The total
intrinsic value of options exercised in the years ended December
31, 2006
and 2005 was $135,150 and $126,265, respectively, determined as of
the
date of exercise. We received cash proceeds from options exercised
in the
years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005 of approximately $191,000
and
$60,000, respectively.

Fair
Value of Financial Instruments
|
The
methods and assumptions used to estimate the fair value of the following
classes of financial instruments were:
|
|
Current
Assets and Current Liabilities:
The carrying values of cash, accounts receivables, finance contract
receivables and payables and certain other short-term financial
instruments approximate their fair value.
|
|
Long-Term
Debt:
The fair value of our long-term debt, including the current portion,
was
estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis, based on our assumed
incremental borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements.
The carrying amount of variable and fixed rate debt at December 31,
2006
approximates fair value.
