PART I
ITEM 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS.
 

ORGANIZATIONAL HISTORY
 


We were formed under the name Science Dynamics Corporation, incorporated in the State of Delaware in May 1973 and began operations in July 1977. We have been developing and delivering secure telecommunication solutions for over 30 years. We changed our name to Lattice Incorporated in February 2007. Lattice incorporated is referred to herein as the “Company,” “we,” “us,” and “our”.
 
The company derives revenue from three primary sources:
 
1.
Providing telecommunications services to correctional facilities and specialized service providers who provide telecommunication services within the industry.
 
2.
Selling or licensing our proprietary technology.
 
3.
Providing highly specialized engineering services to other technology companies and government agencies.
 
At December 31, 2011, the Government Services segment, comprised of SMEI, LGS (formerly RTI) and the CLR Group, which was acquired in May 2011, operated as separate legal entities with regards to our contractual relationships with our government clients.  We plan on merging LGS (formerly RTI), SMEI and CLR into a single legal entity encapsulating all our federal government services with Lattice Government Services (LGS) being the surviving legal entity.  We expect this to be completed in the second quarter of 2012 and may require the novation of some of our federal government contracts into the new entity and to some extent is dependent on our customers approving the contract novation.
 
Telecommunications Group
 
We continue to wholesale call control technology and services to service providers offering communication services to inmates of correctional institutions.  This segment of our revenue historically constituted 95% of our revenues from the Communications Group.  In the second half of 2009 we began offering telecom services directly to correctional facilities and anticipate continued growth in these revenues.  We anticipate direct services to comprise a larger percentage of our revenues from the Communications Group’s revenues moving forward.
 
Our Products and Services
 
Nexus Call Control System
 
 The Nexus Call Control System is built on our proprietary BubbleLink software architecture.  BubbleLink is a versatile and feature rich transaction processing platform that is used to develop and enhance a variety of customizable communications applications.  This open source platform is a combination of integrated computer telephony hardware and software. The Nexus Call Control System is capable of handling thousands of call transactions per hour and provides telecom service providers with effective tools to manage telephone calls. The Nexus Call Control System can manage small to large facilities without sacrificing features or performance.  Nexus  provides technologically advanced call control and management tools targeted at investigation and law enforcement in the inmate telephone control industry. Nexus includes live monitoring, debit, video visitation, kiosk integration, and recording features. The Nexus system can be structured to use pre-paid collect and pre-paid debit cards that support specialized tariffs and call timing. With pre-paid services, Nexus provides complete control and security.  Nexus call control systems are supported by an integrated array of administrative and investigative programs that provide a management solution suite. All programs interact in real-time with Nexus calls and databases via an Ethernet Local Area Network (LAN) or a Wide Area Network (WAN).

Wholesale Services
 
We provide transaction based services to other service providers based on the feature set of the Nexus platform.  Service providers utilize our services to provide telecommunication services to facilities that require a secure call management solution.  The features we offer vary based on the specific needs of the service provider.  With the scalability of the Nexus system we are able to provide services across the country without requiring a large capital deployment for new facilities.  This enables our customers to provide a unique solution with little upfront capital investment.  In addition, customers are able to deploy a reliable and industry proven platform to their customers without having to focus on technology development.

Direct Services
 
Our Nexus platform allows us to provide correctional facilities with a feature rich secure call control service that enables inmates to make phone calls while providing the security and investigative features required in correctional facilities.  In addition to telecommunications services the Nexus based system provides enhanced capabilities to provide services such as video visitation, kiosk management, e-mail, and other advanced inmate services not readily available through less advanced systems.  Traditionally feature rich systems, because of cost, were only available to larger facilities.  With the Nexus based platform, because it is centrally located, we are able to provide a full suite of features to smaller facilities, enabling us to provide services traditionally unavailable to this section of the market.  Our services provide correctional facilities with three unique advantages:
 
 
1.
Increased revenue as a result of a highly reliable system.
 
2.
Operational efficiencies that ease the administrative burden on the correctional facility.
 
3.
Superior investigative tools that also enable information to readily be shared with outside agencies.
 
We continue to enhance our system and service offerings based on our 35 years of industry experience and the unique requirements of our customers.  In addition, we work with other large communications providers to engineer new unique solutions that we are able to integrate back into our product and service offering.
 
Government Services
 
The Government Services Division provides engineering services coupled with advanced technology solutions to agencies of the federal government. We have developed advanced data management applications, Internet server technology, and information systems within federal agencies. Our technology and services helps our customers reduce development time for projects, manage the deployment of applications across the Internet to desktops around the world and implement military grade security on all systems where the applications are deployed.  We have designed, developed and implemented advanced business management applications, integration technologies and enterprise geospatial systems. We currently support several operational systems in all of these categories for major organizations and defense commands using web-based technologies and the consolidation of custom and commercial off-the-shelf software to unite dissimilar applications into integrated systems.  In addition, we provide network engineering, architectural guidance, database management, expert programming, and functional area expert analysis to our Department of Defense clients.  We provide strategic consulting to support business requirements, change management, and financial analysis and metrics for several of our major federal customers.
 
The Government Services division derives approximately 90% of its revenues from the Department of Defense.  Our contracts with the Federal Government are comprised of three contract types; time and materials, fixed price, and cost plus.  These contract types are dependent on the Federal Government and we have little control over the type of contract the Federal Government chooses to operate under.  In addition, we have a mix of prime contracts, where the contract is awarded to us, and subcontracts where we are a sub on another organization’s prime contract.  We currently have approximately 90% of our revenues being generated from prime contracts.  As we expand our business, we anticipate partnering with other organizations and having a more equal split between prime and sub contracts.
 
Virtually all of our Government Services Segment revenues are dependent upon continued funding of the United States government agencies that we serve. The portion of total company revenues contingent on government funding represented approximately 60% of our total revenues for the twelve months ended December 31, 2011 and 93% for the year ended December 31, 2010. Any significant reductions in the budgets of United States government agencies or in the funding of specific programs served by or targeted by our business could have a material adverse affect on our operating results.

U.S. government contracts are subject to termination for convenience by the government, as well as termination, reduction or modification in the event of budgetary constraints or any change in the government’s requirements. In addition, U.S. government contracts are conditioned upon the continuing availability of congressional appropriations. Congress usually appropriates funds on a fiscal year basis even though contract performance may take several years. Consequently, at the outset of a major program, the contract is usually incrementally funded and additional funds are normally committed to the contract by the procuring agency as Congress makes appropriations for future fiscal years. Any failure of such agencies to continue to fund such contracts or failure by Congress to make sufficient appropriations to the relevant agencies could have a material adverse effect on our operating results.
 
Aquifer Software
 
We develop and market the Aquifer Application Services Platform, a proprietary software product embedded in the applications developed for our customers. Aquifer is an out-of-the-box application framework for secure, Web-enabled, multi-platform applications. It implements application and data security that exceeds military and commercial standards. Built on Web services, Aquifer provides developers with a simplified, clear path to implement applications in a Service Oriented Architecture (SOA). New and legacy applications inherit Aquifer’s adaptability and scalability creating immediate value for the end user or client. Using Aquifer, developers accelerate the creation, conversion, deployment, and maintenance of next generation, Internet-ready, multi-tiered business applications. Aquifer’s unique architecture includes the capability to support smart clients, occasionally connected clients, thin clients, and mobile clients tightly integrated with a secure application server, software development kit/migration tool, and Web Service components with the necessary management utilities. It can be used to rapidly re-deploy existing client/server systems and desktop applications as secure Web-enabled smart client systems as well as adapt existing Windows applications to a Web services environment without modifying user interfaces.
 
Aquifer is a .NET application platform built on a service-oriented architecture that delivers scalable and secure Web applications to Windows desktop and Windows CE platforms. Aquifer gives us a competitive advantage with its service bids by: (i) reducing development time and (ii) enabling the management and the deployment of applications across the Internet to desktops around the world. For Secured Cloud Computing, the Aquifer server and client software lets clients host the applications they need to work in a secure web environment. For developers, the Aquifer Software Development Kit (SDK) allows them to build applications that are protected and ready to use in a secure cloud environment. Additionally, the Aquifer suite of tools is DIACAP (defined hereinafter) compliant and allows clients to build, host, and work with tools that are secure and ready to use in the DoD (defined hereinafter) environment. The DoD Information Assurance Certification and Accreditation Process (DIACAP) is the United States Department of Defense (DoD) process to ensure that risk management is applied on information systems. DIACAP defines a DoD-wide standard set of activities, general tasks and a management structure process for the certification and accreditation (C&A) of a DoD information system that will maintain the information assurance (IA) posture throughout the system’s life cycle. Within this secure framework, Aquifer helps organizations solve the following problems:
 
 
Reduction in application development time, cost and risk;
 
Reduction of desktop and PDA application deployment time and cost;
 
Increased richness of user experience;
 
Elimination of security concerns inherent with Web browser vulnerabilities;
 
Decreased server software and hardware costs; and
 
Optimization of network resources for best performance.
 
We market Aquifer as both a productivity tool and a secure application platform. Whether modernizing legacy applications or building new service-oriented, Web based systems, Aquifer is designed to shorten the time it takes to develop and deliver custom solutions in Microsoft .NET environments. Aquifer provides many common service components including:
 
 
Data Access;
 
Role-based User Profiles;
 
Flexible Security Model including strong encryption;
 
Configuration Management;
 
Event Management;
 
Integration Gateways; and
 
Secure Client.

Chemical, Biological, Radiological, Nuclear, and Explosive (CBRNE) Technologies
 
Our Government Services Division also offers two unique technologies for the complete command, control, monitoring, and integration of disparate sensor systems both within and beyond the CBRNE domain. These ruggedized platforms meet all Joint Service specifications for battlefield use, and are small form factor systems for mobile applications. Both systems are currently in use within the DoD and are being integrated into next generation CBRNE platforms for even greater long range protection of our troops in the future.
 
SensorView Software
 
SensorView is a command, control, and monitoring system that provides a Secure Plug and Play (SPnP) backbone for the integration of numerous CBRNE, weather, navigation, video, motion, and other sensor types using a variety of standard wired and wireless interfaces. SensorView is completely flexible, modular, and scalable allowing multi-sensor and multi-site networking and reporting. It can be used with both fixed and mobile units to provide real time monitoring and protection.  The system generates automated and standardized NBC messages that can be used across the entire JPM IS family of platforms. SensorView software is Microsoft Windows and Internet browser based for ease of use with a customizable interface that is easy to learn and modify to the specific display needs of the user. A scalable Graphical Information System (GIS) display shows up to four layered dialog boxes based on mission priorities to keep data clear and uncluttered for the operator at all times. A simulator is also provided with the system to assess new potential sensors before they are integrated with the platform. Complete training materials with on site instruction are also available. SensorView can be used with or without encryption and can be exported for use by Allied Coalition partner nations.
 
The OneVoice System
 
The OneVoice system, also known as the JWARN Component Interface Device (JCID) on a Chip, or JoaC, is a universal network card that allows non-standard CBRNE or other sensor types to communicate with JWARN and other standardized command and control sensor platforms. OneVoice acts as a protocol translator for legacy sensors, allowing connectivity through both the JWARN JCID Interface (JJI) and the Common CBRN Sensor Interface (CCSI). The system can be integrated directly with a sensor, or hung externally as a ‘dongle’ to provide the needed connectivity. It is a flexible system, working with a variety of hardware platforms and operating systems, and can be integrated through standard wired or wireless physical interfaces on the sensors themselves. The OneVoice network card also contains onboard RAM and Flash memory as well as an integrated Global Positioning System (GPS), providing the ability to perform data fusion and computation at the node itself, which delivers added power to mesh network sensor configurations.
 
Sales and Marketing
 
We continue to market all aspects of our Government Services through a direct sales force.  In addition, we have partnered with other government contractors with complimentary services to bid on new contracts.  We will continue this practice and anticipate this aspect of our marketing efforts should add to our subcontract revenues.  This strategy allows us to participate in contracts that under normal circumstances we would be unable to competitively bid for.
 
We continue to market our Aquifer Application Services Platform to federal government agencies, systems integrators and, independent software vendors that are building Windows rich Internet applications. Aquifer’s products, training and services are focused on the .NET Windows application development market where enterprise IT organizations and systems integrators are tasked with building and managing applications that run on the Internet using the .NET Framework. We market our CBRNE Technologies to government clients and commercial systems developers who seek the integration of disparate sensor systems both within and beyond the CBRNE domain.
 
 Employees
 
As of December 31, 2011, we had 44 full time employees and no part time employees.  We supplement full time employees with subcontractors and part time individuals, consistent with workload requirements.  None of our employees are covered by a collective bargaining agreement.  We consider relations with our employees to be satisfactory.
 
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
 
There are numerous and varied risks, known and unknown, that may prevent us from achieving our goals. If any of these risks actually occur, our business, financial condition or results of operation may be materially adversely affected. In such case, the trading price of our common stock could decline and investors could lose all or part of their investment.

RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESS
 
Liquidity Risk
 
Our liquidity is highly dependent on our (i) cash reserves (ii) availability on our credit facility and (iii) our ability to achieve our planned operating cashflows. In the event there is an unexpected downturn in our business or we are unable to achieve our operating goals, the Company would need to modify its debt agreements, curtail operations and obtain alternative funding in a challenging credit environment. Since our borrowing capacity is limited by the level of our eligible trade receivables, more reliance will be placed on our ability to achieve planned operating performance to fund our debt payments coming due in the next twelve months. Our liquidity is also dependent upon being able to negotiate time extensions of account payables. We cannot give any assurance that we will be able to achieve our planned operating goals nor give any assurance of our ability to obtain alternative financing.
 
We depend on contracts with the federal government for a substantial amount of our revenue, and our business could be seriously harmed if the government significantly decreased or ceased doing business with us.
 
We derived 60% of our total revenue in FY 2011 from federal government contracts, either as a prime contractor or a subcontractor. If we were suspended or debarred from contracting with the federal government generally, with the General Services Administration, or any significant agency in the intelligence community or the Department of Defense (“DoD”), or if our reputation or relationship with government agencies were to be impaired, or if the government otherwise ceased doing business with us or significantly decreased the amount of business it does with us, our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results could be materially and adversely affected.
 
Because we depend on government contracts for a significant percentage of our revenues, loss of government contracts or a reduction in funding of government contracts could adversely affect our revenues and cash flows.
 
Revenue from contracts with agencies of the United States government either as a prime contractor or a subcontractor accounted for approximately $6,875,000 or 60% of revenues, for the year ended December 31, 2011 as compared to $9,985,000 or 74% of our revenues for the year ended December 31, 2010. Our government contracts are incrementally funded for periods ranging up to twelve months, and the government agencies may require re-bidding before a contract is renewed, with no assurance that we will be awarded an extension of the contract. Further, agencies of the United States government may cancel these contracts at any time without penalty or may change their requirements, programs or contract budget or decline to exercise options. Any such action by the government agencies could result in a material decline in our revenues and cash flows.
 
Because we sell our products and services in highly competitive markets, we may not be able to compete effectively.
 
Competition for our products and services are highly competitive. In offering our services, we compete with a number of companies some of which are considerably larger than we are, including major defense contractors who offer technology services as well as other products to government agencies. In addition, there are numerous smaller companies that offer both general and specialized services to both government agencies and commercial customers. In marketing our technology products, we compete with a number of large companies, including defense contractors, and smaller companies. In selecting vendors, the government agencies consider such factors as whether the product meets the specifications, the price at which the product is sold and the perceived ability of the vendor to deliver the product in a timely manner. Competitors may use our financial condition and history of losses in competing with us.
 
 
5

 

We depend on a limited number of suppliers for certain parts, the loss of which could result in production delays and additional expenses.
 
Although most of the parts used in our products are available from a number of different suppliers on an off-the-shelf basis, certain parts are available from only one supplier, specifically, certain circuit boards from Natural Micro Systems. Although we believe that our technology is adaptable to other suppliers; it would require two to four months of development work that could delay other engineering initiatives, and as a result the added costs and delays could hurt our business.
 
If our products and services fail to perform or perform improperly, revenues and results of operations could be adversely affected and we could be subject to legal action to recover losses incurred by our customers.
 
Products as complex as ours may contain undetected errors or “bugs,” which may result in product failures or security breaches or otherwise fail to perform in accordance with customer expectations. Any failure of our systems could result in a claim for substantial damages against us, regardless of our responsibility for the failure. Although we maintain general liability insurance, including coverage for errors and omissions, we cannot assure you that our existing coverage will continue to be available on reasonable terms or will be sufficient to cover one or more large claims, or that the insurer will not disclaim coverage as to any future claim. The occurrence of errors could result in loss of data to us or our customers which could cause a loss of revenue, failure to achieve acceptance, diversion of development resources, injury to our reputation, or damages to our efforts to build brand awareness, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our market share, revenues and, in turn, our operating results.
 
Changes in technology and our ability to enhance our existing products, including by research and development, will require technical and financial resources, the unavailability of which could hinder sales of our products and result in decreased revenues.
 
The markets for our products, especially the telecommunications industry, change rapidly because of technological innovation, changes in customer requirements, declining prices, and evolving industry standards, among other factors. To be competitive, we must both develop or have access to the most current technology and incorporate this technology in our products in a manner acceptable to our customers. Our failure to offer our customers the most current technology could affect their willingness to purchase our products, which would, in turn, impair our ability to generate revenue.
 
If we lose our security clearance our business could be adversely affected.
 
Certain of our contracts with government agencies require us to maintain security clearances. Although our subsidiaries have the clearances necessary to perform under our current contracts, the federal government could at any time in its discretion remove these security clearances, which could affect our ability to get new contracts.
 
If we make any acquisitions, they may disrupt or have a negative impact on our business.
 
We have recently made acquisitions and we may make additional acquisitions in the future. If we make acquisitions, we could have difficulty integrating the acquired companies’ personnel and operations with our own. In addition, the key personnel of the acquired business may not be willing to work for us. We cannot predict the affect expansion may have on our core business. Regardless of whether we are successful in making an acquisition, the negotiations could disrupt our ongoing business, distract our management and employees and increase our expenses. In addition to the risks described above, acquisitions are accompanied by a number of inherent risks, including, without limitation, the following:
 
the difficulty of integrating acquired products, services or operations;
 
the potential disruption of the ongoing businesses and distraction of our management and the management of acquired companies;
 
the difficulty of incorporating acquired rights or products into our existing business;
 
difficulties in disposing of the excess or idle facilities of an acquired company or business and expenses in maintaining such facilities;
 
difficulties in maintaining uniform standards, controls, procedures and policies;
 
the potential impairment of relationships with employees and customers as a result of any integration of new management personnel;
 
the potential inability or failure to achieve additional sales and enhance our customer base through cross-marketing of the products to new and existing customers;
 
the effect of any government regulations which relate to the business acquired; and
 
potential unknown liabilities associated with acquired businesses or product lines, or the need to spend significant amounts to retool, reposition or modify the marketing and sales of acquired products or the defense of any litigation, whether of not successful, resulting from actions of the acquired company prior to our acquisition.
 
 
6

 
 
Our business could be severely impaired if and to the extent that we are unable to succeed in addressing any of these risks or other problems encountered in connection with these acquisitions, many of which cannot be presently identified, these risks and problems could disrupt our ongoing business, distract our management and employees, increase our expenses and adversely affect our results of operations.
 
We may not be able to enhance our existing products to address the needs of other markets.
 
The first step on realizing our business development strategy requires us to enhance current products so they can meet the needs of other markets. If we are unable to do this, we may not be able to increase our sales and further develop our business.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
 
The information in this annual report contains forward-looking statements. All statements other than statements of historical fact made in this annual report are forward looking. In particular, the statements herein regarding industry prospects and future results of operations or financial position are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements reflect management's current expectations and are inherently uncertain. Our actual results may differ significantly from management's expectations.
 
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements, included herewith. This discussion should not be construed to imply that the results discussed herein will necessarily continue into the future, or that any conclusion reached herein will necessarily be indicative of actual operating results in the future. Such discussion represents only the best present assessment of our management.

Business Overview:

For the twelve months ended December 31, 2011, revenues from our telecom services segment increased to 40% of total revenues up from 26% in 2010 and 7% in 2009.  In 2011 approximately 60% of our revenues were generated from federal government contracts which we act as a prime contractor and indirectly as a subcontractor to Federal Department of Defense agencies reported under our government services segment.  We anticipate the continued growth in the telecom segment to outpace our government services revenue, resulting in an increasing percentage of revenue being generated from our telecom segment.

In the first quarter of 2012 we anticipate our revenues to be above $3,000,000 and the company to return to being EBITDA positive for the first quarter.  We believe we are able to achieve this by reducing our overhead costs, consolidating operations in our Government Services segment, and continuing to expand our sales in the Telecommunications segment.  As we continue to expand we will be looking to fund our capital requirements through increased sales, debt financing, vendor financing, and equity investments.

We operate in two principal business segments: Government Services and Telecom Services. We organize our business segments based on the nature of the services offered and end-user markets served.
  
Telecom Services: 
 
Historically, our revenue from the telecom services has been derived from wholesaling product and services to service providers providing telecom services to inmate facilities.  In the latter part of 2009 we expanded our offering to include direct services to end-user inmate facilities either providing directly to inmate facilities or via a partnering arrangement with other service providers.  This decision was made based on our insight to the growth opportunities with the company’s current customer base and within the inmate telecommunications market.  The transition to the new services model was completed late in 2009 and enabled us to move into a market that has an addressable market of over $1.5 billion per year.  This is based on the size of the inmate population in the United States and the telecommunications traffic derived by this population and does not take into account any additional products we offer or foreign markets we are able to pursue.  With the transition to the direct service based model, our telecom services revenues increased 29% from 2010.   There are risk factors such as contracts being cancelled or a drop in network usage that could cause a decline in our telecom services revenue.  However based on our current operations we do not anticipate any factors that would cause a disruption.

Our technology platform has been expanded to include an integrated kiosk system that enables deposits to be made at facility to an inmate’s account.  In addition, the technology can also be deployed to enable inmates to review the details of their account.  We have also implemented a video visitation technology that enables on-site interaction via video conferencing with inmates and visitors.  Both technologies are fully integrated with our Nexus platform enabling facilities to streamline overhead associated with managing inmate accounts and facilitating the movement of inmates during visiting sessions.  We intend to continue the expansion of our technology platform to include technologies that further enhance the efficiencies of correctional facility operations.

Our technology was tested in Canada and the United Kingdom in 2011.  Both tests have been successfully completed and we anticipate, through local partnerships, to be expanding our technology implementation in these countries.  This has led to other inquiries from international technology companies looking to implement our technology.  We will continue to partner with companies established in international markets to implement our technology and expand our technology footprint.
 
 
11

 
 
We currently operate in 9 states and the number of inmates using our service or are being provided a service by other companies utilizing our technology is now over 50,000 inmates.  We plan to continue this growth by expanding our direct services within the states we serve, expanding to other states, continue to offer our services to other providers on a wholesale basis, and continue to sell our technology to strategic partners both in the U.S. and internationally.  At the end of 2011 our technology was operating in Canada, U.K., and Japan.  We plan on expanding our international footprint in these countries as well as working with strategic partners to expand our international,
 
 Government Services:
 
 Historically, our revenue from government services has been derived from providing architecture and engineering services coupled with advanced technology solutions to agencies of the federal government. The acquisition of CLR, a provider of technology solutions to government agencies in May 2011 added to those services.
 
Based in O’Fallon, IL, CLR has a strong record of delivering technology and systems for the U.S. Military, including the U.S. Transportation Command, NASA, the Air Force Material Command, and the Air Mobility Command. In addition, CLR has a long standing relationship with Siemens that provides technical expertise and installation of telephone switch and trade board systems for the Air Force Reserve Command, Air combat command, Air Mobility Command and the Air National guard.

CLR’s technology solutions are primarily in the areas of enterprise architecture, architecture design and analysis, engineering support as well as network support.

In August 2011 we expanded our services offering to include building energy management systems through a trusted teaming arrangement with US Energy Group that makes us their exclusive provider to the federal government and its growing energy needs. US Energy, a New York City based provider of building energy management solutions to more than 3500 buildings in the metro NYC area, providing 15-35% in total energy savings to their customers. The Federal government is under increasing pressure to manage its enormous energy consumption, its single greatest expenditure outside salaries.  With over 1,000,000 building in the Federal portfolio (of which, over 400,000 are under the control of DOD), the established, mandatory metrics for energy reduction are aggressive.  

Those metrics can only be met through a comprehensive combination of capabilities, including energy efficiencies and supplemental energy production through alternative sources like solar panels.  Just as important is the ability to manage energy usage.  The Building Energy Management System allows managers to learn where energy is being used through the use of wireless collection sensors and, matching that usage to mission, make logical use decisions that will keep occupants comfortable and critical equipment cooled while saving money.

 During 2011 we had a number of positive discussions with potential customers including an Energy Pilot with Redstone Arsenal, an Energy Initiative with the Huntsville Hospital Authority and an Energy Initiative with Huntsville City Hall.

There are risk factors such as contracts being cancelled or funding being reduced that could cause a decline in our government services revenue.  However based on our current operations we do not anticipate any factors that would cause a disruption.

Our Government services segment revenues decreased 31% from 2010.  The decrease was mainly due to the termination of our SPAWAR contracts during May 2011.  As a growth strategy, in addition to marketing our services into current agencies we have contracts with, we have entered into a number of teaming agreements with larger government contractors potentially enabling us to provide services on current contracts that they have been awarded.  

We currently operate in 5 states and opened our newest location in Huntsville, Alabama in August 2011.  Huntsville offers a unique combination of rapid growth under the BRAC reorganization combined with its growing prominence as the second largest center for government contracting dollars behind only the Washington DC metro area; this makes it a critical intersection for small business penetration.  As the new headquarters for the Army Materiel Command, the Missile Defense Agency, Installation Management Command, NASA’s Marshall Space Flight Center, and dozens of other major agencies and regional offices, Huntsville either directly or indirectly manages more DOD spending than any other geographical location.  The Redstone Arsenal community continues to push the use of small businesses, setting aside nearly $2 billion for small businesses under all socioeconomic categories.
 
We plan to expand our services within the federal agencies we serve, expanding to other federal agencies outside of the DOD, and continue to sell our technology and services to strategic partners.

REVENUES:

Total revenues were $11,447,000 for the year ended December 31, 2011, compared to $13,538,000 in 2010. This represents a decrease in 2011 of 15.4%. Our Government Services segment which represents revenues from professional engineering services to Federal Government Department of Defense (DoD) agencies accounted for 60% of total revenues compared to 74% in the year ago period. Our telecom revenues increased to 40% of overall revenues compared to 26% in the prior year period.

            Our Government services revenues decreased by $3,110,000 or 31% to $6,875,000 from $9,985,000 in the year ago period. Included in 2011 were revenues of $2,375,000 attributable to the acquisition of Cumming Creek/CLR which closed in May 2011. Excluding CLR, the decrease in revenues adjusts to $5,485,000 or 55%. The baseline decrease was mainly due to contracts ending during 2011, mainly our prime SPAWAR contract vehicles which ended during May 2011.  Revenues under our SPAWAR contract vehicles decreased by $4,083,000 from $6,348,000 in 2010 to $2,265,000 in 2011.

            Our communications segment revenues increased by $1,019,000 or 29% to $4,572,000 from $3,554,000 in the prior year.  Included in the overall  increase was an increase in our recurring service revenues of $1,316,000 or 51% partially offset by a decrease of $297,000 in product sales.  The decrease in product sales is mostly related to the timing of shipments and not indicative of a trend. The increase in recurring service revenues was in line with our growth strategy to continue to expand the number of end-user correctional facilities contracts where we provide direct telecommunication provisioning services.
 
GROSS PROFIT:

For the twelve months ended December 31, 2011, our total gross profit decreased by $1,111,000 or 22% to $3,920,000 from $5,030,000 in 2010.  As a percent of sales, gross profit decreased to 34.2% in 2011 as compared to 37.2% from the prior year.  The decrease of $1,111,000 was comprised of a decrease in gross profit from our Government segment of $1,260,000 or 33% partially offset by an increase in gross profit from our Telecom segment of $149,000 or 12%.

 Our Government segment gross profit includes contribution from the CLR acquisition from May 2011 until December 31, 2011 of $743,000.  Excluding CLR, the decline in gross profit adjusts to $2,003,000 or 52% from the prior year.  The decrease was due to the loss of contracts during 2011, mainly the SPAWAR contract vehicles which ended May 2011. As a percentage of revenue, gross profit decreased to 37% from 40% in the prior year.

Our Telecom gross profit increased by $149,000 or 12% to $1,361,000 from $1,211,000 in the prior year. The gross margin percentage for the telecom segment decreased to 30% in 2011 from 34% prior year. The decrease in percentage was due to the mix of service revenues relative to product revenues. Our product revenues declined due to timing of shipments which carry gross profit margin in the 70% range compared to the gross margin percentage from our recurring direct service revenue which ranges from 20% to 30%.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT:

Research and development expenses increased to $692,000 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011 from $549,000 in the year ended December 31, 2010. Our engineering effort increased in line with our strategy to grow our direct telecom services. Management believes that continual enhancements of the Company's products will be required to enable us to maintain its competitive position. We will have to focus its principal future product development and resources on developing new, innovative, technical products and updating existing products.
 
SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE:
 
Selling, general and administrative expenses ("SG&A") consist primarily of expenses for management, administrative personnel, legal, fringe costs, indirect overhead costs, accounting, consulting fees, sales commissions, non-cash depreciation and amortization expenses, marketing, and facilities costs. For the year ended December 31, 2011, SG&A increased to $5,290,000 from $4,830,000 from the comparable year ended December 31, 2010, representing an increase of $460,000 or 10%. As a percentage of revenues, SG&A costs for 2011 increased to 46.2% from 35.7% for the year ended December 31, 2010. SG&A for 2011included expenses of CLR (acquired May 2011) of $511,000 not present in the year ago period.  Also included in SG&A was non-cash share based compensation of $234,000 compared to $511,000 in 2010. Excluding the effects of CLR and share based compensation, total SGA increased by $277,000 or 5% from prior year. For 2011, SG&A expenses increased in our Telecom segment for developing our intellectual property and investing in selling, marketing and support in line with growing our direct telecom services revenues. Management is focused on reducing costs in response to the decline in revenues and cash flows from our government segment. Accordingly, we have implemented cost saving measures consisting mainly of reductions in general and administrative expenses in the latter part of 2011 and into 2012 totaling approximately $1.4 million annualized.

AMORTIZATION & IMPAIRMENT:

Non-cash amortization expense for 2011 and 2010 related to intangible assets recognized in the purchase accounting of SMEI, LGS and CLR acquired in May 2011 and the IP rights purchased in 2011 amounted to $623,607 and $558,546 respectively.  The increase in 2011 is attributable to the addition of intangible assets recorded as part of the acquisition of Cumming Creek/CLR in May 2011.  For 2011, we recorded a non-cash impairment charge of $3,397,000 related to the carrying value of goodwill and intangible assets arising from acquisitions comprising our Government segment. The decrease was mainly driven by the decrease in revenues and cashflows as a result of losing contracts with Federal DoD agencies, mainly our SPAWAR contract in May 2011.
 
INTEREST EXPENSE:

Interest Expense consists of interest paid and accrued on our notes payable and outstanding balance on our credit facility. Interest expense increased to $457,000 for the year ended December 31, 2011 from $437,000 for the prior year ended December 31, 2010. 

EXTINGUISHMENT LOSS:

In the first quarter of 2010, we recorded $130,000 as a loss on extinguishment for the issuance of 1,400,011 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series A Preferred”) in exchange for cash proceeds of $250,000 and the return and cancellation of 1,955,132 shares of Series A warrants.

NET LOSS:

Our net loss for the year ended December 31, 2011 was $6,061,000 which compared to a net loss of $1,416,000 for the year ended December 31, 2010. Net loss is influenced by the matters discussed in the other sections of this MDA. However, it should be noted that our 2011 net loss included an impairment charge to the carrying value of our Goodwill and intangible assets of $3,397,000.

INCOME APPLICABLE TO COMMON STOCKHOLDERS:

Income applicable to common stock gives effect to our net income, cumulative undeclared dividends on our Series B Preferred Stock and a deemed dividend on the issuance of Series D Preferred during 2011 amounting to $1,089,000 and $25,000 for the year ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Income applicable to common stockholders’ serves as the numerator in our basic earnings per share calculation. We will continue to reflect cumulative preferred stock dividends on Series B Preferred stock until the preferred stock is converted into common, if ever.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Cash and cash equivalents decreased to $192,000 at December 31, 2011 from $324,000 at December 31, 2010.

Net cash used by operating activities was $1,373,000 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2011 compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $777,000 in the corresponding twelve months ended December 31, 2010. Net cash used by operating activities in the current year was mainly driven by the decline in revenues in our Government segment from losing a large contract (SPAWAR) in May 2011.
 
Net cash used in investment activities was $528,000 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2011 compared to $1,358,000 in the corresponding period ended December 31, 2010. Included in 2010 was an investment of $1,300,000 for patent licensing. In 2011 $588,000 was used to purchase property, plant and equipment supporting our direct services growth in our telecom segment which compared to $58,000 in the prior year. With the launch of our direct telecom services product in the latter part of 2009, we expect to continue to have a requirement for capital on a project by project basis as we are awarded service contracts. The $528,000 cash used for investing activities in fiscal year 2011 included the cash acquired as part of the Cummings Creek/CLR acquisition of $59,000. To date, we have financed these equipment purchases with equipment based financing, debt and equity financings.  The capital requirement for our Government services business is not material and is mainly driven by increases in the level of billable staff which requires the purchase of personal computers, in-house servers and network infrastructure.
 
Net cash provided by financing activities was $1,770,000 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2011 compared to net cash provided by financing activities of $692,000 in the corresponding twelve months ended December 31, 2010. The $1,770,000 consisted of, (i) proceeds from financings totaling $2,416,000, (ii) less repayments of short term notes totaling $736,000, (iii) less principal payments on capital leases of $63,000 plus (iv) net borrowings  on our credit facilities of $153,000.  

Going concern considerations:

 At December 31, 2011, our working capital deficiency was $2,643,000 which compared to a working capital deficiency of $1,417,000 at December 31, 2010. Over the last two years we have experienced operating losses and have had negative working capital. These conditions raise doubt regarding our ability to continue as a going concern. Our ability to continue as a going concern is highly dependent upon our ability to improve our operating cashflows over current levels, continued availability under our line of credit financing and the ability to raise alternative financing when needed. There is no assurance that we will be able to raise alternative financing and/or restructure existing debt when and if operating cashflows are not sufficient to pay its current level of indebtedness in the next twelve months. 

The Company did not receive the funding as anticipated for our direct labor staffing under the new subcontract arrangement with the new prime contractor for SPAWAR. Our status as prime contractor with SPAWAR ended May 2011. We have estimated the annualized impact to our revenues and operating cash flows to be approximately $5,000,000 and $800,000 respectively.  Previously, we had estimated the annual savings from restructuring activities undertaken during the latter half of 2011 to offset the loss of operating cashflow from the loss of SPAWAR to yield cost savings of approximately $600,000 annually. Since then, we have taken additional measures to reduce expenses and estimate the annual savings from the 2011 and 2012 cost reduction initiatives to be approximately $1,400,000.  Additionally, we expect continued growth in revenues and cashflows from our telecom business based on recent contract wins and projected wins based on our sales pipeline.

Although we are projecting improvements in our operating cashflows from the cost cutting measures implemented and the revenue growth in our telecom segment, the next 3-6 months will be the most critical as we face continued pressures of negative working capital, additional capital requirement to support the continued expansion of our direct telecom services and payments on debt service which includes a note coming due June 2012 of $982,000.  The note is secured with certain accounts receivable and we are depending on the collection of these receivables to fund the repayment of this note.  During the first quarter of 2012 sales in our telecom group increased which lessens the need for outside financing. If we continue to see sales expansion it will continue to decrease the requirement for outside financing.  Our continued growth in the direct telecom services segment will require additional working capital for new equipment purchases in order to provide these services.  The Company is constant discussion with private investors and investment groups in an attempt to procure additional funding.  These efforts will proceed unabated.  The Company can provide no guarantee that this funding will be realized.
 
Our current cash position, availability on our line of credit and current level of operating cashflows are not adequate to; (i) support our current working capital requirements (ii) support the interest costs and principal payments coming due on debt and (iii) support the increased capital requirements for equipment purchases supporting the growth planned  in our telecommunications segment. In this regard, we are highly dependent on improving our operating cashflows to positive levels, maintaining continued availability on our line of credit facility and being able to raise alternative financing in a challenging credit environment. The alternative financing has not been identified at the time of this filing. There can be no assurances that the Company’s businesses will generate sufficient forward cash flows from operations or that future borrowings under our line of credit facility will be available in an amount sufficient to service our current indebtedness or to fund other liquidity needs. 

Financing activities:

On February 14, 2011, we entered into a securities purchase agreement with Barron Partners LP (“Barron”) pursuant to which Barron purchased 454,546 shares of Series D Convertible Preferred Stock for $1,000,000.    Each Series D Share is convertible into 20 common shares of the Company’s common stock at $0.11 per share, subject to adjustment and limitations.   In advance of the transaction, the Board of Directors approved and the Company filed a certificate of designation for Series D Convertible Preferred Stock.

The Purchase Agreement also contains covenants concerning listing of its common stock, its periodic reporting status and auditors.  Failure by the Company to fulfill these and other covenants could require payment of liquidated damages, payable in Series D Stock or cash, at Purchaser's option.

We incurred approximated $48,000 in costs associated with the February 14, 2011 security purchase agreement.

On March 28, 2011, we entered into a securities purchase agreement with Barron Partners LP pursuant to which Barron purchased an additional 90,910 shares of Series D Convertible Preferred Stock for $200,000.    Each Series D Share is convertible into 20 common shares of Company’s common stock at $0.11 per share, such to adjustment and limitations.   Under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, as approved by the Company’s board of directors, Lattice subsequently filed an amended certificate of designation for Series D Convertible Preferred Stock increasing the authorized amount to 636,400 shares.   The terms and provisions of the March 28, 2011 Purchase Agreement is materially similar or identical of the February 14, 2011 securities purchase agreement with Barron.
 
During March and April 2011, we entered into several stock purchase agreements with investors for private placements of 4,632,727 shares of restricted common stock.   These private placements raised $509,600 from thirteen accredited investors for issuances of restricted common shares at $.11 per share in conjunction with the Barron financings.

On May 16, 2011, we entered into a securities purchase agreement with Barron Partners LP pursuant to which Barron purchased 45,455 shares of Series D Convertible Preferred Stock for $100,000.   Each Series D Share is convertible into 20 common shares of Company’s common stock at $0.11 per share, subject to adjustment and limitations.

On May 16, 2011, we acquired all of the outstanding shares of Cummings Creek Capital for 2,500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock.  Cummings Creek Capital is a holding company and holds 100% of the outstanding shares of CLR Group, a government service contractor.

During October 2011, we entered into a stock purchase agreement with an accredited investor for the private placements of 454,545 shares of restricted common stock at $0.22 per share for $100,000.  

On October 14, 2011, we issued a note with a face value of $168,000 to a Director of which the Company received $151,200 in net proceeds during October 2011. The discount of $16,800 is being amortized to interest expense over the term of the note. The note carries an annual interest rate of 10% payable quarterly at the rate of $4,200 per quarter.  The entire principal on the note of $168,000 is due at maturity on October 14, 2014.
 
On December 13, 2011, we had signed a promissory note with a vendor in exchange for invoices we owe totaling $416,533. The note is payable quarterly over a two year term with principal payments due as follows: December 31, 2011 of $10,000, January 15, 2012 of $50,000, March 31, 2012 of $20,000, June 30, 2012 of 30,000, September 30, 2012 of $30,000, December 31, 2012 of $45,000, March 31, 2012 of $45,000, June 30, 2012 of $55,000, September 30, 2012 of $55,000 and December 31, 2012 of $76,533. The note carries a 12% annual interest rate calculated on outstanding principal balance payable monthly. As of December 31, 2011, the Company owed $406,533.
 
OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS:
 
We do not have any off balance sheet arrangements that are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, revenues, results of operations, liquidity or capital expenditures.
 
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND SENSITIVE ESTIMATES:
 
Use Estimates
 
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (US GAAP). The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the financial statements and accompanying notes. These estimates form the basis for judgments made about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Estimates and judgments are based on historical experience and on various other assumptions that the Company believes are reasonable under the circumstances. However, future events are subject to change and the best estimates and judgments routinely require adjustment. US GAAP requires estimates and judgments in several areas, including those related to impairment of goodwill and equity investments, revenue recognition, recoverability of inventory and receivables, the useful lives long lived assets such as property and equipment, the future realization of deferred income tax benefits and the recording of various accruals. The ultimate outcome and actual results could differ from the estimates and assumptions used.
 
Basis of Financial Statement Presentation
 
At December 31, 2011, we had a working capital deficiency of $2,645,000. During 2010, we had a loss from operations of $6,033,000 which included non-cash items totaling $4,512,000. The non-cash consisting of; an impairment charge of $3,347,000, $754,000 from amortization of intangibles, $234,000 of stock-based compensation and $178,000 of depreciation expense. This condition raises substantial doubt regarding our ability to continue as a going concern. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon management’s continuing and successful execution on its business plan to achieve profitability and increased operating cashflows and the ability to raise additional financing to support working capital deficit and debt coming due in the next twelve months. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
 
 
16

 
 
Principles of Consolidation
 
The consolidated financial statements included the accounts of the Company and all of its subsidiaries in which a controlling interest is maintained. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. For those consolidated subsidiaries where Company ownership is less than 100%, the outside stockholders' interests are shown as minority interests.
 
Derivative Financial Instruments
 
Derivative financial instruments are initially recorded at fair value and subsequently adjusted to fair value at the close of each reporting period. The Company estimates fair values of derivative financial instruments using various techniques (and combinations thereof) that are considered to be consistent with the objective measuring fair values. In selecting the appropriate technique, management considers, among other factors, the nature of the instrument, the market risks that it embodies and the expected means of settlement. For less complex derivative instruments, such as free-standing warrants, the Company generally uses the Black-Scholes-Merton option valuation technique because it embodies all of the requisite assumptions (including trading volatility, estimated terms and risk free rates) necessary to fair value these instruments. For complex derivative instruments, such as embedded conversion options, the Company generally uses the Flexible Monte Carlo valuation technique because it embodies all of the requisite assumptions (including credit risk, interest-rate risk and exercise/conversion behaviors) that are necessary to fair value these more complex instruments. For forward contracts that contingently require net-cash settlement as the principal means of settlement, the Company projects and discounts future cash flows applying probability-weightage to multiple possible outcomes. Estimating fair values of derivative financial instruments requires the development of significant and subjective estimates that may, and are likely to, change over the duration of the instrument with related changes in internal and external market factors. In addition, option-based techniques are highly volatile and sensitive to changes in the trading market price of our common stock, which has a high-historical volatility. Since derivative financial instruments are initially and subsequently carried at fair values, our income (loss) will reflect the volatility in these estimate and assumption changes.
 
Revenue Recognition
 
Revenue is recognized when all significant contractual obligations have been satisfied and collection of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured. Revenue from product sales is recognized when the goods are shipped and title passes to the customer.
 
We apply the guidance of SOP-97.2 with regards to its software products. Under this guidance, we determined that our product sales do not contain multiple deliverables for an extended period beyond delivery where bifurcation of multiple elements is necessary. The software is embedded in the products sold and shipped. Revenue is recognized upon delivery, installation and acceptance by the customer. PCS (post-contract customer support) and upgrades are billed separately and when rendered or delivered and not contained in the original arrangement with the customer. Installation services are included with the original customer arrangement but are rendered at the time of delivery of the product and invoicing.
 
We provide IT and business process outsourcing services under cost reimbursable, time-and-material, fixed-price contracts, which may extend up to 5 years. Services provided over the term of these arrangements may include, network engineering, architectural guidance, database management, expert programming and functional area expert analysis. Revenue is generally recognized when a contract has been executed, the contract price is fixed and determinable, delivery of services or products has occurred, and collectability of the contract price is considered probable and can be reasonably estimated.
 
 
Under cost reimbursable contracts, we are reimbursed for allowable costs, and paid a fee. Revenues on cost reimbursable contracts are recognized as costs incurred plus an estimate of applicable fees earned. We consider fixed fees under cost reimbursable contracts to be earned in proportion of the allowable costs incurred in performance of the contract. Certain costs under government contracts are subject to audit by the government. Indirect costs are charged to contracts using provisional or estimated indirect rates, which are subject to later revisions based on government audits. Management believes that any adjustment by the government will not be material to the financial statements.
 
 
Revenue on time and materials contracts are recognized based on direct labor hours expended at contract billing rates and adding other billable direct costs. For fixed price contracts that are based on unit pricing or level of effort, we recognize revenue for the number of units delivered in any given fiscal period. For fixed price contracts in which we are paid a specific amount to provide a particular service for a stated period of time, revenue is recognized ratably over the service period.
 
 
Our contracts with agencies of the government are subject to periodic funding by the respective contracting agency. Funding for a contract may be provided in full at inception of the contract or ratably throughout the contract as the services are provided. In evaluating the probability of funding for purposes of assessing collectability of the contract price, we consider our previous experiences with its customers, communications with its customers regarding funding status, and our knowledge of available funding for the contract or program. If funding is not assessed as probable, revenue recognition is deferred until realization is deemed probable.
 
 
17

 
 
Impairments of long-lived assets
 
At least annually, we review all long-lived assets with determinate lives for impairment. Long-lived assets subject to this evaluation include property and equipment and intangible assets that amount to $2,948,000 or 49% of total assets at December 31, 2011. We consider the possibility that impairments may be present when indicators of impairment are present. In the event that indicators are identified or, if within management’s normal evaluation cycle, we establish the presence of possible impairment by comparing asset carrying values to undiscounted projected cash flows. The preparation of cash flow projections requires management to develop many, often subjective, estimates about our performance. These estimates include consideration of revenue streams from existing customer bases, the potential increase and decrease in customer sales activity and potential changes in our direct and indirect costs. In addition, if the carry values of long-lived assets exceed undiscounted cash flow, we would estimate the impairment based upon discounted cash flow. The development of discount rates necessary to develop this cash flows information requires additional assumptions including the development of market and risk adjusted rates for discounting cash flows. While management utilizes all available information in developing these estimates, actual results are likely to be different than those estimates.
 
Goodwill represents the difference between the purchase price of an acquired business and the fair value of the net assets of businesses we have acquired. Goodwill is not amortized. Rather, we test goodwill for impairment annually (or in interim periods if events or changes in circumstances indicate that its carrying amount may not be recoverable) by comparing the fair value of each reporting unit, as measured by discounted cash flows, to the carrying value of the reporting unit to determine if there is an indication that potential impairment may exist. One of the most significant assumptions underlying this process is the projection of future sales. We review its assumptions when goodwill is tested for impairment and makes appropriate adjustments, if any, based on facts and circumstances available at that time. While management utilizes all available information in developing these estimates, actual results are likely to be different than those estimates.

ITEM 8. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA.
 
All financial information required by this Item is attached hereto at the end of this report beginning on page F-1 and is hereby incorporated by reference.
 
ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE.
 

On January 23, 2012, the Audit Committee appointed and authorized by the Board of Directors of the Company approved the dismissal of Acquavella, Chiarelli, Shuster, Berkower & Co., LLP (“ACSB”) as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm. ACSB was initially engaged by the Company on January 6, 2010, for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2010.

ACSB’s report on the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 contained an explanatory paragraph which noted that there was substantial doubt as to the Company’s going concern due to a deficit in working capital to meet its current liabilities. Other than the foregoing, the report contained no adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and was not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.

During the Company’s most recent fiscal year and the subsequent interim period preceding its dismissal, there were:
(i)
no disagreements with ACSB on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of ACSB, would have caused it to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in its reports on the consolidated financial statements of the Company; and
(ii)
no reportable events as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

On February 23, 2012, ACSB furnished to the Company a letter addressed to the SEC stating that it agrees with the statements made above. A copy of ACSB’s letter dated February 23, 2012 is attached as Exhibit 16.1 to the Form 8-K filed with the SEC on February 24, 2012.

(b)
New independent registered public accounting firm.

On January 18, 2012, the Board approved the engagement of Rosenberg Rich Baker Berman & Company (“RRBB”) as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2011.

During the Company’s two most recent fiscal years and the subsequent interim period preceding its engagement, neither the Company nor anyone on its behalf consulted with RRBB regarding either:

(i)
the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company’s consolidated financial statements, and no written report or oral advice was provided to the Company that RRBB concluded was an important factor considered by us in reaching a decision as to the accounting, auditing or financial reporting issue; or
(ii)
any matter that was the subject of a disagreement or reportable event as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and Item 304(a)(1)(v), respectively.

In approving the selection of RRBB as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, the Board considered any services previously provided by RRBB and concluded that such services would not adversely affect the independence of RRBB.
 
ITEM 9A(T). CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.
 
Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
 
The Company’s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act). The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that:
 
- pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets;
 
 
19

 
 
- provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP, and that receipts and expenditures of our company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors; and
 
- provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
 
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, the Company assessed the effectiveness of the internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2011. In making this assessment, we used the criteria set forth in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on the results of this assessment and on those criteria, the Company concluded that a material weakness exists in the internal controls as of December 31, 2011.
 
A material weakness in the Company’s internal controls exists in that, beyond the Company’s CFO there is a limited financial background amongst other executive officers or the board of directors. This material weakness may affect management’s ability to effectively review and analyze elements of the financial statement closing process and prepare financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP. In making this assessment, our management used the criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). As a result of the material weaknesses described above, our management concluded that as of December 31, 2011, we did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting based on the criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework issued by the COSO.
 
This annual report does not include an attestation report of the company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal controls over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the company to provide only management’s report in this annual report.
 
Changes in internal control
 
There were no changes in the small business issuer’s internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the company evaluation required by paragraph (3) of Rule 13a-15 or Rule 15d-15 under the Exchange Act that occurred during the small business issuer’s fiscal year that has materially affected or is reasonably likely to materially affect the small business issuer’s internal control over financial reporting.

Oversight
 
Although we have not adopted a formal policy on whether the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer positions should be separate or combined, we have traditionally determined that it is in our best interests and our shareholders to combine these roles. Paul Burgess currently serves as Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Company. Due to our small size and limited resources, we believe it is currently most effective to have the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer positions combined.
 
Our Audit Committee is primarily responsible for overseeing our risk management processes on behalf of our board of directors. The Audit Committee receives and reviews periodic reports from management, auditors, legal counsel, and others, as considered appropriate regarding our company’s assessment of risks. In addition, the Audit Committee reports regularly to the full Board of Directors, which also considers our risk profile. The Audit Committee and the full Board of Directors focus on the most significant risks facing our company and our company’s general risk management strategy, and also ensure that risks undertaken by our Company are consistent with the Board’s appetite for risk. While the Board oversees our company’s risk management, management is responsible for day-to-day risk management processes. We believe this division of responsibilities is the most effective approach for addressing the risks facing our company and that our Board leadership structure supports this approach.
 
 
23

 
 
BOARD COMPOSITION
 
At each annual meeting of stockholders, all of our directors are elected to serve from the time of election and qualification until the next annual meeting of stockholders following election. The exact number of directors is to be determined from time to time by resolution of the board of directors.
 
COMMITTEES
 
We have an audit committee. The members of our audit committee are Robert E. Galbraith, chair, and John Boyd both of whom are independent. We do not have an audit committee financial expert, as that term is defined in Item 401 of Regulation S-B, but expect to designate one in the near future. We have not yet adopted an audit committee charter but expect to do so in the near future. 
 
We have a compensation committee. The members of the compensation committee are John Boyd, Mark Rosenker, and Donald Upson.
 
We do not have a nominating committee because of our limited resources. The full board will take part in the consideration of director nominees. The board considers, among other things, the diversity of potential board member’s backgrounds, including their professional experience, education, skills and other individual attributes in assessing their potential appointment to the board.
 
CODE OF ETHICS
 
We have adopted a Code of Ethics and Business Conduct for Officers, Directors and Employees that applies to all of our officers, directors and employees. The Code of Ethics is filed as Exhibit 14.1 to our annual report on Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2003, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 9, 2004. Upon request, we will provide to any person without charge a copy of our Code of Ethics. Any such request should be made to Attn: Paul Burgess, Lattice Incorporated, 7150 N. Park Drive, Suite 500, Pennsauken, N.J. 08109. Our telephone number is (856) 910-1166.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
 
 
 
To the Board of Directors and
Alvin P. Levine, CPA
Stockholders of Lattice Incorporated
Daniel M. Brooks, CPA
 
 
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Lattice Incorporated as of December 31, 2011 and the related consolidated statement of operations, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2011. Lattice Incorporated’s management is responsible for these financial statements. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.
 
 
 
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
 
 
 
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Lattice Incorporated and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2011, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2011 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
 
 
 
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in note 1b to the financial statements, the Company has a history of operating losses, has a working capital deficit and requires additional working capital to meet its current liabilities. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 1b. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
 
 
To The Board of Directors and
Shareholders of Lattice Incorporated
 
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Lattice Incorporated and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2010 and the related consolidated statement of operations, stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the year ended. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audit.
 
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that Lattice Incorporated and Subsidiaries will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1b to the financial statements, the Company requires additional working capital to meet its current liabilities. This condition raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to this matter are more fully described in Note 1b. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

LATTICE INCORPORATED AND SUBSIDIARIES
 NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


Note 1- Organization and summary of significant accounting policies:

a)         Organization
 
Lattice Incorporated (the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Delaware May 1973 and commenced operations in July 1977. The Company began as a provider of specialized solutions to the telecom industry. Throughout its history Lattice has adapted to the changes in this industry by reinventing itself to be more responsive and open to the dynamic pace of change experienced in the broader converged communications industry of today. Currently Lattice provides advanced solutions for several vertical markets. The greatest change in operations is in the shift from being a component manufacturer to a solution provider focused on developing applications through software on its core platform technology. To further its strategy of becoming a solutions provider, the Company acquired a majority interest in Systems Management Engineering, Inc. (“SMEI”) in February 2005. In September 2006 the Company purchased all of the issued and outstanding shares of the common stock of Lattice Government Services, Inc. (“LGS”), (formerly known as Ricciardi Technologies Inc. (“RTI”)). LGS was founded in 1992 and provides software consulting and development services for the command and control of biological sensors and other Department of Defense requirements to United States federal governmental agencies either directly or through prime contractors of such governmental agencies. LGS’s proprietary products include SensorView, which provides clients with the capability to command, control and monitor multiple distributed chemical, biological, nuclear, explosive and hazardous material sensors. On May 16, 2011 we acquired 100% of the shares of Cummings Creek Capital, a holding Company which itself owns 100% of the shares of CLR Group Limited. (“CLR”).  CLR a government contractor compliments our Government Services business by expanding markets and service offerings. Including CLR, our Government services segment, approximately 60% of the Company’s 2011 revenues are derived from government services which compares to 74% in the prior year.  In December 2009 we changed RTI’s name to Lattice Government Services Inc.  In January 2007, we changed our name from Science Dynamics Corporation to Lattice Incorporated.

b)         Basis of Presentation and going concern considerations

At December 31, 2011, the Company has a working capital deficiency of $2,643,000 which compared to a deficiency of $1,417,000 in the prior year.  During 2011, the Company had a loss from operations of $6,083,000 compared to a loss from operations of $907,000 in the prior year.  It should be noted that included in the 2011 net loss was a noncash impairment charge of $3,347,000 related to the carrying value of intangible assets.  The history of operating losses combined with working capital deficits raises substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon management’s continuing and successful execution on its business plan to achieve profitability and to raise additional working capital through alternative financings. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty. 

The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and the requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The financial statements include all normal and recurring adjustments that are necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s financial position and operating results.
 
c)         Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements included the accounts of the Company and all of its subsidiaries in which a controlling interest is maintained. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. For those consolidated subsidiaries where Company ownership is less than 100%, the outside stockholders’ interests are shown as non-controlling interest.
 
 
F-8

 
 
d)         Use of Estimates
 
The preparation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (US GAAP) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the financial statements and accompanying notes. These estimates form the basis for judgments made about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Estimates and judgments are based on historical experience and on various other assumptions that the Company believes are reasonable under the circumstances. However, future events are subject to change and the best estimates and judgments routinely require adjustment. US GAAP requires estimates and judgments in several areas, including those related to impairment of goodwill and equity investments, revenue recognition, recoverability of inventory and receivables, the useful lives long lived assets such as property and equipment, the future realization of deferred income tax benefits and the recording of various accruals. The ultimate outcome and actual results could differ from the estimates and assumptions used.  

e)         Fair Value Disclosures

Management believes that the carrying values of financial instruments, including, cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued liabilities approximate fair value as a result of the short-term maturities of these instruments. As discussed in Note 1(m), below, derivative financial instruments are carried at fair value.
 
The carrying values of the Company’s long term debts and capital lease obligations approximates their fair values based upon a comparison of the interest rates and terms of such debt to the rates and terms of debt currently available to the Company.
 
f)          Cash
 
The Company maintains its cash balances with various financial institutions. Balance at various times during the year may at time exceed Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation limits.

g)         Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market, with cost determined on a first-in, first-out basis.

h)         Income Taxes

Deferred income tax balances reflect the effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases and are state at enacted tax rates expected to be in effect when taxes are actually paid or recovered.  At December 31, 2011 and 2010, deferred tax liabilities were $223,771 and $256,512, respectively.      

ASC 740, Accounting for Income taxes (“ASC 740”), requires that deferred tax assets be evaluated for future realization and reduced by a valuation allowance to the extent we believe a portion more likely than not will not be realized.  We consider many factors when assessing the likelihood of future realization of our deferred tax assets, including our recent cumulative earnings experience and expectations of future taxable income by taxing jurisdictions, the carry-forward periods available to us for tax reporting purposes and other relevant factors.
 
 
F-9

 
 
We account for uncertain tax positions using a two-step process. The first step is to evaluate the tax position for recognition by determining if the weight of available evidence indicates that it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained on audit, including resolution of related appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits. The second step requires us to estimate and measure the tax benefit as the largest amount that is more than 50% likely to be realized upon ultimate settlement. It is inherently difficult and subjective to estimate such amounts, as we have to determine the probability of various possible outcomes. We re-evaluate these uncertain tax positions on a quarterly basis. This evaluation is based on factors including, but not limited to, changes in facts or circumstances, changes in tax law, effectively settled issues under audit, and new audit activity. Such a change in recognition or measurement would result in the recognition of a tax benefit or an additional charge to the tax provision.  We did not recognize any additional tax benefit or additional charges to our tax provision during 2011 and 2010. As of December 31, 2011 and 2010, the Company has not accrued interest or penalties related to uncertain tax position.

i)         Revenue Recognition

Revenue is recognized when all significant contractual obligations have been satisfied and collection of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured. Revenue from product sales is recognized when the goods are shipped and title passes to the customer.

The company applies the guidance of SOP-97-2 with regards to its software products sold. Under this guidance, the Company determined that its product sales do not contain multiple deliverables for an extended period beyond delivery where bifurcation of multiple elements is necessary. The software is embedded in the products sold and shipped. Revenue is recognized upon delivery, installation and acceptance by the customer. PCS (post-contract support) and upgrades are billed separately and when rendered or delivered and not contained in the original arrangement with the customer. Installation services are included with the original customer arrangement but are rendered at the time of delivery of the product and invoicing.
 
In our Government Services segment, our revenues are derived from IT and business process outsourcing services under cost-plus, time-and-material, and fixed-price contracts, which may extend up to 5 years. Under our fixed-price contracts, revenues are generally recorded as delivery is made. For time-and-material contracts, revenues are computed by multiplying the number of direct labor-hours expended in the performance of the contract by the contract billing rates and adding other billable direct costs. Under cost-plus contracts, revenues are recognized as costs are incurred and include an estimate of applicable fees earned. Services provided over the term of these arrangements may include, network engineering, architectural guidance, database management, expert programming and functional area expert analysis   Revenue is generally recognized when the service is provided and the amount earned is not contingent upon any further event.
 
Our fixed price contracts are primarily based on unit pricing (labor hours) or level of effort. The Company recognizes revenue for the number of units delivered in any given fiscal period. Accordingly, these contracts do not fall within the scope of SOP 81-1, Accounting for Performance of Construction-Type and Certain Production-Type Contracts, where revenue is recognized on the percentage-of-completion method using costs incurred in relation to total estimated costs.

Under cost reimbursable contracts, the Company is reimbursed for allowable costs, and paid a fee, which may be fixed or performance-based. Revenues on cost reimbursable contracts are recognized as costs are incurred plus an estimate of applicable fees earned. The Company considers fixed fees under cost reimbursable contracts to be earned in proportion of the allowable costs incurred in performance of the contract. For cost reimbursable contracts that include performance based fee incentives, the Company recognizes the relevant portion of the expected fee to be awarded by the customer at the time such fee can be reasonably estimated, based on factors such as the Company’s prior award experience and communications with the customer regarding performance.
 
 
F-10

 
 
The allow ability of certain costs under government contracts is subject to audit by the government.  Certain indirect costs are charged to contracts using provisional or estimated indirect rates, which are subject to later revision based on government audits of those costs.  Management is of the opinion that costs subsequently disallowed, if any, would not be significant.

Revenues related to collect and prepaid calling services generated by the communication services  segment are recognized during the period in which the calls are made. In addition, during the same period, the Company records the related telecommunication costs for validating, transmitting, billing and collection, and line and long distance charges, along with commissions payable to the facilities and allowances for uncollectible calls, based on historical experience.

Government claims: Unapproved claims relate to contracts where costs have exceeded the customer’s funded value of the task ordered on our cost reimbursement type contract vehicles. The unapproved claims are considered to be probable of collection and have been recognized as revenue. Unapproved claims included as a component of our Accounts Receivable totaled approximately $1,555,000 and $1,525,000 as of December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. Consistent with industry practice, we classify assets and liabilities related to these claims as current, even though some of these amounts are not expected to be realized within one year.

 j)         Share-based payments

The Company adopted the provisions of ASC Topic 718, Share-Based Payment (“ASC 718”), beginning January 1, 2006,   using the modified prospective transition method.  ASC 718 requires the Company to measure the cost of employee services in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant-date fair value of the award and to recognize cost over the requisite service period.  Under the modified prospective transition method, financial statements for periods prior to the date of adoption are not adjusted for the change in accounting.  However, compensation expense is recognized for (a) all share-based payments granted after the effective date under ASC 718, and (b) all awards granted under ASC 718 to employees prior to the effective date that remain unvested on the effective date.  The Company recognizes compensation expense on fixed awards with pro rata vesting on a straight-line basis over the service period.
 
For purposes of estimating fair value of stock options, we use the Black-Scholes-Merton valuation technique. For the twelve months ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, there was approximately $15,932 and $228,185 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested share-based compensation awards granted under the equity compensation plans which does not include the effect of future grants of equity compensation, if any. The $15,932 will be amortized over the weighted average remaining service period.

k)        Depreciation, amortization and long-lived assets:

Long-lived assets include:

Property, plant and equipment - These assets are recorded at original cost. The Company depreciates the cost evenly over the assets’ estimated useful lives. For tax purposes, accelerated depreciation methods are used as allowed by tax laws.

Goodwill- Goodwill represents the difference between the purchase price of an acquired business and the fair value of the net assets acquired and the liabilities assumed at the date of acquisition. Goodwill is not amortized. The Company tests goodwill for impairment annually ( or in interim periods if events or changes in circumstances indicate that its carrying amount may not be recoverable) by comparing the fair value of each reporting unit, as measured by discounted cash flows, to the carrying value to determine if there is an indication that potential impairment may exist. Absent an indication of fair value from a potential buyer or similar specific transactions, the Company believes that the use of this income approach method provides reasonable estimates of the reporting unit’s fair value. Fair value computed by this method is arrived at using a number of factors, including projected future operating results, economic projections and anticipated future cash flows. The Company reviews its assumptions each time goodwill is tested for impairment and makes appropriate adjustments, if any, based on facts and circumstances available at that time. There are inherent uncertainties, however, related to these factors and to management’s judgment in applying them to this analysis. Nonetheless, management believes that this method provides a reasonable approach to estimate the fair value of the Company’s reporting units.
 
The income approach, which is used for the goodwill impairment testing, is based on projected future debt-free cash flow that is discounted to present value using factors that consider the timing and risk of the future cash flows. Management believes that this approach is appropriate because it provides a fair value estimate based upon the reporting unit’s expected long-term operating and cash flow performance. This approach also mitigates most of the impact of cyclical downturns that occur in the reporting unit’s industry. The income approach is based on a reporting unit’s five year projection of operating results and cash flows that is discounted using a build up approach. The projection is based upon management’s best estimates of projected economic and market conditions over the related period including growth rates, estimates of future expected changes in operating margins and cash expenditures. Other significant estimates and assumptions include terminal value growth rates, future capital expenditures and changes in future working capital requirements based on management projections.
 
 
F-11

 
 
Identifiable intangible assets - The Company amortizes the cost of other intangibles over their useful lives unless such lives are deemed indefinite. Amortizable intangible assets are tested for impairment based on undiscounted cash flows and, if impaired, written down to fair value based on either discounted cash flows or appraised values. Intangible assets with indefinite lives are not amortized; however, they are tested annually for impairment and written down to fair value as required.

At least annually, The Company reviews all long-lived assets for impairment. When necessary, charges are recorded for impairments of long-lived assets for the amount by which the fair value is less than the carrying value of these assets. (See Note 8 for 2011 impairment charges)

l)         Fair Value of Financial Instruments 
 
In accordance with FASB ASC 820, fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (i.e., the “exit price”) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.

In determining fair value, the Company uses various valuation approaches.  In accordance with GAAP, a fair value hierarchy for inputs is used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available.  Observable inputs are those that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Fund.  Unobservable inputs reflect the Fund’s assumptions about the inputs market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances.  The fair value hierarchy is categorized into three levels based on the inputs as follows:

 
Level 1 — inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or  liabilities in active markets.

 
Level 2 — inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the assets or liability, either directly or indirectly, for  substantially the full term of the financial instruments.

 
Level 3 — inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value.

As of December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the derivative liabilities amounted to $96,396 and $228,108.  In accordance with the accounting standards the Company determined that the carrying value of these derivatives approximated the fair value using the level 3 inputs.

 m)       Derivative Financial Instruments and Registration Payment Arrangements

Derivative financial instruments, as defined in Financial Accounting Standard, consist of financial instruments or other contracts that contain a notional amount and one or more underlying (e.g. interest rate, security price or other variable), require no initial net investment and permit net settlement. Derivative financial instruments may be free-standing or embedded in other financial instruments. Further, derivative financial instruments are initially, and subsequently, measured at fair value and recorded as liabilities or, in rare instances, assets. The Company generally does not use derivative financial instruments to hedge exposures to cash-flow, market or foreign-currency risks. However, the Company has entered into various types of financing arrangements to fund its business capital requirements, including convertible debt and other financial instruments indexed to the Company’s own stock. These contracts require careful evaluation to determine whether derivative features embedded in host contracts require bifurcation and fair value measurement or, in the case of freestanding derivatives (principally warrants) whether certain conditions for equity classification have been achieved. In instances where derivative financial instruments require liability classification, the Company is required to initially and subsequently measure such instruments at fair value. Accordingly, the Company adjusts the fair value of these derivative components at each reporting period through a charge to income until such time as the instruments acquire classification in stockholders’ equity. See Note 13 for additional information.
 
 
F-12

 
 
As previously stated, derivative financial instruments are initially recorded at fair value and subsequently adjusted to fair value at the close of each reporting period. The Company estimates fair values of derivative financial instruments using various techniques (and combinations thereof) that are considered to be consistent with the objective measuring fair values. In selecting the appropriate technique, management considers, among other factors, the nature of the instrument, the market risks that it embodies and the expected means of settlement. For less complex derivative instruments, such as free-standing warrants, the Company generally uses the Black-Scholes-Merton option valuation technique because it embodies all of the requisite assumptions (including trading volatility, dividend yield, estimated terms and risk free rates) necessary to fair value these instruments. For complex derivative instruments, such as embedded conversion options, the Company generally uses the Flexible Monte Carlo valuation technique because it embodies all of the requisite assumptions (including credit risk, interest-rate risk and exercise/conversion behaviors) that are necessary to fair value these more complex instruments. For forward contracts that contingently require net-cash settlement as the principal means of settlement, the Company projects and discounts future cash flows applying probability-weightage to multiple possible outcomes. Estimating fair values of derivative financial instruments requires the development of significant and subjective estimates that may, and are likely to, change over the duration of the instrument with related changes in internal and external market factors. In addition, option-based techniques are highly volatile and sensitive to changes in the trading market price of our common stock, which has a high-historical volatility. Since derivative financial instruments are initially and subsequently carried at fair values, our income (loss) will reflect the volatility in these estimate and assumption changes.

n)        Segment Reporting

FASB ASC 280-10-50, “Disclosure about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information” requires use of the “management approach” model for segment reporting.  The management approach model is based on the way a company’s management organizes segments within the company for making operating decisions and assessing performance.  Reportable segments are based on products and services, geography, legal structure, management structure, or any other manner in which management disaggregates a company.  The Company operates in two segments during the year ended December 31, 2011(Government services and Telecom services).

o)        Basic and diluted income (loss) per common share:

The Company calculates income (loss) per common share in accordance with Statements on Financial Accounting Standards ASC Topic 260, Earnings Per Share (“ASC 260”). Basic and diluted income (loss) per common share is computed based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Common share equivalents (which consist of convertible preferred stock,  options and warrants) are excluded from the computation of diluted loss per share since the effect would be anti-dilutive. Common share equivalents which could potentially dilute basic earnings per share in the future, and which were excluded from the computation of diluted loss per share, totaled approximately 83 million shares and 77 million shares at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

p)        Recent accounting pronouncements

In May 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Update No. 2011-04, Fair Value Measurements (Topic 820): Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRS (“ASU No. 2011-04”).  ASU No. 2011-04 provides a uniform framework for fair value measurements and related disclosures between GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) and requires additional disclosures, including: (i) quantitative information about unobservable inputs used, a description of the valuation processes used, and a qualitative discussion about the sensitivity of the measurements to changes in the unobservable inputs, for Level 3 fair value measurements; (ii) fair value of financial instruments not measured at fair value but for which disclosure of fair value is required, based on their levels in the fair value hierarchy; and (iii) transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.  ASU No. 2011-04 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2011.  The adoption of this update on January 1, 2012 is not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In June 2011, the FASB issued Update No. 2011-05, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Presentation of Comprehensive Income (“ASU No. 2011-05”).  ASU No. 2011-05 requires the presentation of net income and other comprehensive income in one continuous statement or in two separate but consecutive statements.  ASU No. 2011-05 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2011, with early adoption permitted.  The Company will adopt this guidance January 1, 2012 and is not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

(a) Bank Line-of-Credit
 
On July 17, 2009, the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Lattice Government Services (formally “RTI”), entered into a Financing and Security Agreement (the “Action Agreement”) with Action Capital Corporation (“Action Capital”). 
 
Pursuant to the terms of the Action Agreement, Action Capital agreed to provide the Company with advances of up to 90% of the net amount of certain acceptable account receivables of the Company (the “Acceptable Accounts”).  The maximum amount eligible to be advanced to the Company by Action Capital under the Action Agreement is $3,000,000.  The Company will pay Action Capital interest on the advances outstanding under the Action Agreement equal to the prime rate of Wachovia Bank, N.A. in effect on the last business day of the prior month plus 1%.  In addition, the Company will pay a monthly fee to Action Capital equal to 0.75% of the total outstanding balance at the end of each month.
 
In addition, pursuant to the Action Agreement, the Company granted Action Capital a security interest in certain assets of the Company including all, accounts receivable, contract rights, rebates and books and records pertaining to the foregoing (the “Action Lien”). On June 11, 2010, Action Capital and an accredited investor entered into an agreement under which $1,250,000 of the collateral otherwise securing advances covered by the Action Agreement are subordinated to a new security interest securing an additional loan from the accredited investor. During November 2011, $268,345 of the collateral was collected by Action, escrowed and paid directly to the accredited investor reducing the collateral and outstanding balance on the loan to $981,655 at December 31, 2011.
 
 
F-16

 
 
The outstanding balance owed on the line at December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010  was $412,770 and $259,826 respectively.  At December 31, 2011 our interest rate was approximately 13.25%.
    
(b) Note Payable

In  February 2010 (“effective date”) the former RTI shareholders  assigned their interest in the note to a third party, at which time the Company amended  the terms of the note  to pay interest only and extend the maturity for 18 months with a balloon payment on August 19, 2012. The holder has a call option on the principal balance of $531,000 which includes $31,000 in deferred financing fees after twelve months from the effective date upon written notification 45 days in advance. The call option was exercised and the note was paid in full during the quarter ended March 31, 2011. The balance at December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010 was $0 and  $531,000 respectively.

(c) Notes Payable Stockholders/Director
 
The first note bears interest at 21.5% per annum. During December 2010, the note was amended to flat monthly payments of $6,000 until maturity, December 31, 2013, at which time any remaining interest and or principal will be paid. This note has an outstanding balance of $123,551 and $159,260 as of December 31, 2011 and 2010 respectively.

The second note dated October 14, 2011 has a face value of $168,000 of which the Company received $151,200 in net proceeds during October 2011. The discount of $16,800 is being amortized to interest expense over the term of the note. The note carries an annual interest rate of 10% payable quarterly at the rate of $4,200 per quarter.  The entire principal on the note of $168,000 is due at maturity on October 14, 2014.
 
(d) Capital Lease Payable
 
On June 16, 2009 Lattice entered an equipment lease financing agreement with Royal Bank America Leasing  to purchase approximately $130,000 in equipment for our communication services. The terms of which included monthly payments of $5,196 per month over 32 months and a  $1.00 buy-out at end of the lease term. On July 15, 2011 we signed an addendum to this lease and received additional equipment financing for $58,122 payable over 30 months at $2,211 per month. As of December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the outstanding balance was $47,679 and $53,054, respectively.

(e) Note Payable
 
On June 11, 2010, Lattice closed on a Note Payable for $1,250,000.  The net proceeds to the Company were $1,100,000. The $150,000 is being amortized over the life of the note as additional interest expense. The note matures June 30, 2012 and payment of principal will be due at that time in the lump sum value of $981,655 including any unpaid interest. Until maturity, Lattice is required to make quarterly interest payments (calculated in arrears)  at 12% stated interest with the first quarter interest payment of $37,500 due September 30, 2010 and $37,500 due each quarter end thereafter until the final payment comes due June 30, 2012 totaling $1,019,155 including the final interest payment. The note is secured by certain receivables totaling $981,655. Concurrent with the note, an intercreditor agreement was signed between Action Capital and Holder where Action Capital has agreed to subordinate the Action Lien on certain government contracts, task orders and accounts receivable totaling $981,655. During November 2011, $268,345 of the original $1,250,000 accounts receivable securing the note was collected, escrowed and paid directly to the note holder by Action Capital thereby reducing the outstanding balance on the note and the collateral to $981,655 at December 31, 2011. As of the date of this filing, the Company is current with all interest payments.

During the quarter ended June 30, 2011, we issued a two year promissory note payable for $200,000 to a shareholder of the Company.  The Note bear s interest of 12% per year.  The Company is required to pay interest quarterly on a calendar basis starting with a pro-rata interest payment on June 30, 2011. On May 15, 2013 the maturity date, the principal amount of $200,000 will be due along with any unpaid and accrued interest.

During the current quarter ended September 30, 2011, we issued a two year promissory note payable for $227,272 to an investor.  The Note bears  interest of 12% per year. The Company is required to pay interest quarterly on a calendar basis starting with a pro-rata interest payment on September 30, 2011. On August 3, 2013 the maturity date, the principal amount of the note will be due along with any unpaid and accrued interest.
 
On December 13, 2011, we converted outstanding invoices that we owed a vendor by converting the liability to a promissory note in the amount of $416,533. The note is payable quarterly over a two year term with principal payments due as follows: December 31, 2011 of $10,000, January 15, 2012 of $50,000, March 31, 2012 of $20,000, June 30, 2012 of $30,000, September 30, 2012 of $30,000, December 31, 2012 of $45,000, March 31, 2012 of $45,000, June 30, 2012 of $55,000, September 30, 2012 of $55,000 and December 31, 2013 of $76,533. The note carries a 12% annual interest rate calculated on the outstanding principal balance payable monthly. As of December 31, 2011, the outstanding balance of the note is $406,533. As of the date of this filing, the Company is current with principal and interest payments.
 
(f)  Notes payable Cummings Creek / CLR
 
In conjunction with the Cumming Creek Capital / CLR acquisition, Lattice assumed notes totaling $676,925 comprised of three notes each with the former principles of CLR Group.   The notes bear interest on the unpaid principal amount until paid in full, at a rate of four percent (4.0%) per annum payable quarterly.   The Company will pay the unpaid principal amount as follows: beginning on May 31, 2011,  the Company will make equal payments of principal  on the first day of each calendar quarter  totaling $58,275 (i.e., February 28, May 31, August 30 and November 30), until February 15, 2014. The unpaid balance of the notes totaled $507,868  at December 31, 2011.

Each Series D Preferred share is convertible into 20 common shares of the Company’s common stock at a price of $0.11 per share. The conversion price is subject to anti-dilution protection for (i) traditional capital restructurings, such as splits, stock dividends and reorganizations and (ii) anti-dilution for sales of common shares and common linked contracts below the initial conversion price.

Holders of the Company’s Series D Preferred are not entitled to dividends and the Holder has no voting rights. However, so long as any shares of Series D Preferred Stock are outstanding, the Company is subject to limitations on certain actions unless pre-approved by holders of 75% of the shares of the Series D Preferred stock then outstanding. Upon liquidation, dissolution or windup, each share of Series D Preferred Stock shall entitle its holder to receive $2.20 out of the assets of the Company, prior to any distribution to any class of junior securities.

We evaluated the Series D Preferred for classification. The Preferred Stock is redeemable, at the holder’s option, upon a liquidation event. The redemption features do not rise to the level of “unconditionally” redeemable for purposes of liability classification.

In considering the application of ASC 815, we identified those specific terms and features embedded in the contract that possess the characteristics of derivative financial instruments. Those features included the conversion option, anti-dilution protection, and buy-in and non-delivery puts.  Generally, embedded terms and features that both (i) meet the definition of derivatives and (ii) are clearly and closely related to the host contract in terms of risks, do not require bifurcation and separate measurement. In order to develop these conclusions, we first evaluated the Preferred Stock to determine if the hybrid contract, with all features included, was more akin to an equity instrument or a debt instrument. Significant indicators of equity were the non-existence of a fixed and determinable redemption provision and the non-existence of any dividend feature. The preponderance and weight of these indicators led us to the conclusion that the hybrid contract was more akin to an equity instrument. Accordingly, the conversion option does not require bifurcation because its risks and the risks of the hybrid are clearly and closely related. The non-delivery and buy-in put, conversely, do require bifurcation because their risks and the risks of the host are not clearly and closely related. The value of these puts was deminimus at inception but will be re-evaluated each reporting period.

Further consideration of the classification of the Series D Preferred as either equity or mezzanine was required. Generally, redeemable instruments, where redemption is either stated or outside the control of management, require classification outside of stockholders’ equity. The Series D Preferred is classified as equity because it is redeemable only upon ordinary liquidation events and the occurrence of events that are solely within management’s control.

ASC 470-20-25 provides that embedded beneficial conversion features present in convertible securities (including preferred stock) should be valued separately at issuance. The conversion price of the Preferred Stock is $0.11 which gave rise to a beneficial conversion feature. The beneficial conversion feature, which is recorded a component of paid-in capital, was calculated by multiplying the linked common shares (11,818,182 common shares) times the spread between the trading market price of $0.20 and the conversion price of $0.11, or $1,063,636.

ASC 470 provides for preferred stock to be accreted to its redemption value over the longer of the term to maturity, which is not present in the Series D Preferred, or the date of the first conversion. Since the Series D Preferred is convertible on the issuance date, a day-one deemed dividend of $1,063,636 was recorded as a deemed dividend in the consolidated statement of operations.

The Company incurred approximately $20,000 in cost associated with the sale of the preferred stock for net proceeds of approximately $1,280,000.

 
b)
Sale of Common Stock:

  During March and April 2011, the Company entered into several stock purchase agreements with investors for private placements of 3,955,454 shares of restricted common stock.   These private placements raised $336,361 net of legal expenses of $48,740 from thirteen accredited investors for issuances of restricted common shares at $.11 per share.

  During October 2011, we entered into a stock purchase agreements with an accredited investor for the private placements of 454,545 shares of restricted common stock at $0.22 per share for $100,000.  
 
In July 2011, the Company received $1,600 in cash and issued 20,000 shares of restricted common stock for an exercise of employee options.

Warrants:
  
     During March, April and May  2011 Laurus and/or its affiliated funds exercised 700,000 cashless warrants for 433,618 shares of the Company’s common stock. For the year ended December 31, 2011.
 
Note 7 - Cummings Creek/ CLR Acquisitions

On May 16, 2011, we entered into a Contribution and Exchange Agreement (“Contribution Agreement”) with Ralph Alexander (“Alexander”) pursuant to which Alexander, as sole stockholder, contributed all the outstanding shares of Cummings Creek Capital, Inc. (“Cummings Creek”), a Delaware corporation, to Lattice in exchange for 2,500,000 shares of restricted common stock and the Company’s assumption of certain promissory notes with a face value of $700,000. Cummings Creek holds 100% of the outstanding shares of CLR Group Ltd., (“CLR Group”) a government service contractor, with a principal place of business located in OFallon, Illinois.

Lattice Government Services (“LGS”), entered into an Employment Agreement with Alexander. Alexander will serve as chief executive officer of LGS for initial annual compensation of $210,000, as well as other benefits. He may be entitled to additional bonus compensation based upon performance.

The following pro-forma information for the year end December 31, 2011 is presented as if the acquisition took place as of January 1, 2011:

Under the acquisition method, the total purchase price was allocated to Cummings Creek’s net tangible and intangible assets based upon their estimated fair values as of May 16, 2011. The excess purchase price over the value of the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets was recorded as goodwill. The factors that contributed to the recognition of goodwill included past performance and relationship in the industry, an experienced management team and acquiring a technically talented workforce.
 
The total purchase price for Cummings Creek was approximately $1.4 million which included a contingent liability of $167,300, representing the estimated fair value of contingent consideration we currently expect to pay to the former shareholder of CLR Group upon the achievement of certain revenue targets and future contract renewals.  The potential undiscounted amount of all future payments that we could be required to make under the contingent consideration arrangement is between $0 and $400,000 through February 2013.  The  amount of contingent consideration to be paid in the future was estimated by probability-weighting the payments to be made based on management’s best estimates of the occurrence of reaching future revenue targets and obtaining contract renewals.  These estimated payments were then discounted to present value using risk adjusted discount rates.

The fair value of the 2,500,000 common shares issued as part of the consideration paid was determined on the basis of the closing market price of Lattice’s common shares on the acquisition date.

The assumed promissory notes have a face value of $676,915 and bear interest at 4% per year.  The Company is required to pay principal and interest payments quarterly starting on May 31, 2011 until February 15, 2014 when any unpaid principal and interest remaining on the notes will be due.  The fair value of the notes was estimated based on a discounted cash flow approach using risk adjusted discount rates ranging from 7.43% to 8.29%.

The Company believes that CLR’s service offerings, markets covered and technical competencies affords it an opportunity for synergy, thus justifying the amount of goodwill attributed to the acquisition of Cummings Creek.
 
We believe that the estimated intangible asset values so determined represent the fair value at the date of acquisition. We used the income approach, specifically the discounted cash flow method, to derive the fair value of the amortizable intangible assets.  The estimated cash flows associated with the specific intangibles were discounted to present value over the intangible asset’s estimated useful life using a weighted average cost of capital derived from comparable companies and management’s estimates of the risk associated with each intangible asset.  The discount rates used in the fair value calculations as of the date of acquisition ranged from 23.72%- 24.72% These fair value measurements are based on significant unobservable inputs, including management estimates and assumptions and, accordingly, are classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy prescribed by Topic 820.
 
Note 8 - Goodwill and other intangible assets:
 
In accordance with the Goodwill and Other Intangibles Topic of the ASC, goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets are tested for impairment annually, and interim impairment tests are performed whenever an event occurs or circumstances change that indicate that it is more likely than not that an impairment has occurred. December 31 has been established for the annual impairment review. Goodwill is tested for impairment at the reporting unit level. As of December 31, 2011 and 2010, all goodwill was allocated to the Government Services Sector which was considered one reporting unit.
 
 
F-21

 
 
In May 2011 the Company determined that the loss of prime status on the SPAWAR government contract coupled with the curtailment of funding of the direct labor going forward may have an impact on the carrying amount of goodwill and other intangibles. Accordingly, the Company performed an interim impairment review of its goodwill and other intangibles and determined that goodwill was impaired and recorded an impairment loss during the second quarter of $1,575,000.
 
The annual impairment review performed as of December 31, 2011 resulted in an additional impairment of goodwill of approximately $1,686,000 due primarily to the loss of additional contracts and continued curtailment of direct labor funding.  A discounted cash flow model was used to estimate the value of the reporting unit, which considers forecasted cash flows discounted at an estimated weighted average cost of capital.  The Company selected the discounted cash flow methodology as it believes that it is comparable to what would be used by market participants.  The forecasted cash flows are based on the Companys long-term operating plan, and a terminal value is used to estimate the operating segments cash flows beyond the period covered by the operating plan. The weighted-average cost of capital is an estimate of the overall after-tax rate of return required by equity and debt market participants of a business enterprise. These analyses require the exercise of significant judgments, including judgments about appropriate discount rates, perpetual growth rates and the timing of expected future cash flows. Discount rate assumptions are based on an assessment of the risk inherent in the future cash flows of the respective reporting unit. Impairments of goodwill have been reported as a separate line in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
 
Determining the fair value of a reporting unit is judgmental in nature and requires the use of significant estimates and assumptions including, but not limited to, revenue growth rates, future market conditions and strategic plans. The Company cannot predict the occurrence of certain events or changes in circumstances that might adversely affect the carrying value of goodwill. Such events may include, but are not limited to, the impact of the economic environment, a material negative change in relationships with significant customers; or strategic decisions made in response to economic and competitive conditions.

Note 9 - Recurring Fair Value Measurements

On a recurring basis, we measure certain financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value based upon quoted market prices, where available. Where quoted market prices or other observable inputs are not available, we apply valuation techniques to estimate fair value. Topic 820 establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosure of fair value measurements. The categorization of financial assets and financial liabilities within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the measurement of fair value. The three levels of the hierarchy are defined as follows:
   
Level 1 – Inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted market prices for identical assets or liabilities.
   
Level 2 – Inputs to the valuation methodology are other observable inputs, including quoted market prices for similar assets or liabilities and market-corroborated inputs.
   
Level 3 – Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable inputs based on management’s best estimate of inputs market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date, including assumptions about risk.
 
In connection with the CLR Group acquisition, we have a contingent obligation, to be paid in cash, to the former shareholder of CLR Group based on future revenue and contract renewal targets.  The fair value of the contingent consideration liability associated with the $400,000 of potential payments was estimated by discounting, to present value, the contingent payments expected to be made based on our estimates of expected revenues and contract renewals. Since the factors used to value the contingent consideration liability were derived from management’s estimates of the probability of payment, they were considered Level 3 inputs within the fair value hierarchy.
 
As of the date of acquisition, we used risk adjusted discount rates ranging from 7.43%- 7.70% to reflect market risks, which we believe is appropriate and representative of market participant assumptions. In accordance with ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations, we will re-measure this liability each reporting period and record changes in the fair value through a separate line item within our statement of operations.  Increases or decreases in the fair value of the contingent consideration liability can result from changes in discount periods and rates, as well as changes in the timing and amount of revenue and contract renewal estimates. During the fourth quarter of 2011, we recorded $89,600 in the accompanying statements of operations representing the decrease in fair value of this obligation between the acquisition date and December 31, 2011 due primarily to a reduction in the probability of certain targets being met.  As of December 31, 2011, we used risk adjusted discount rates ranging from 7.37%-8.75% to reflect market risks.
 
The fair value Changes in the fair value of recurring fair value measurements using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3), relate solely to our contingent consideration liability , as follows:

Note 10 - Litigation
 
From time to time, lawsuits are threatened or filed against us in the ordinary course of business. Such lawsuits typically involve claims from customers, former or current employees, and vendors related to issues common to our industry. Such threatened or pending litigation also can involve claims by third-parties, either against customers or ourselves, involving intellectual property, including patents. A number of such claims may exist at any given time. In certain cases, derivative claims may be asserted against us for indemnification or contribution in lawsuits alleging use of our intellectual property, as licensed to customers, infringes upon intellectual property of a third-party. Although there can be no assurance as to the ultimate disposition of these matters, it is our management’s opinion, based upon the information available at this time, that the expected outcome of these matters, individually and in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on the results of operations, liquidity or financial condition of our company. There were no liabilities of this type at December 31, 2011.
 
Note 11 – Patent Licensing Agreement 

On January 4, 2010 the Company entered into a Patent Licensing agreement supporting its communication services products.  In conjunction with the agreement the Company paid  $1,300,000 as follows;  $50,000 on the first of each month starting on January 1, 2010 and ending June 1, 2010 and a lump sum payment due of $1,000,000  on June 30, 2010. The $1,300,000 was paid in full pursuant to the licensing agreement as of June 30, 2010. The $1,300,000 was accounted for as intangible property and is being amortized over 120 months. Accordingly $130,000 of amortization expense was included as a component of the communication segment’s cost of sales for the years ended December 31, 2011and December 31, 2010 respectively.

Note 12 – Exchange of Series A Preferred Stock for cancellation of Series A Warrants

On February 1, 2010, we received cash proceeds of $250,000 from Barron Partners L.P. in exchange for the issuance of 1,400,011 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series A Preferred”) and the return and cancellation of 1,955,132 shares of Series A warrants which were originally issued in conjunction with the September 19, 2006 Barron financing.  The exchange was effective February 19, 2010.

The Series A warrants did not meet all the conditions of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 815 Derivatives and Hedging for equity classification so they had been recorded as derivative liabilities since inception. The fair value of the Series A warrants on the transaction date was determined to be $87,785 using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Significant assumptions used in the Black Scholes model as of the date of the exchange included a strike price of $0.283; a historical volatility factor of 181% based upon forward terms of instruments; a remaining term of 1.58 years; and a risk free rate of 0.95%.

The Series A Preferred was designated on August 28, 2006. The Series A Preferred has a par value of $0.01 and as of the date of the exchange, each share of preferred stock is convertible into 3.5714 shares of the Company’s common stock and would be automatically converted into common stock upon a change in control, liquidation, at an amount equal to $.575 per share.  The conversion price is subject to anti-dilution protection for (i) traditional capital restructurings, such as splits, stock dividends and reorganizations and (ii) sales or issuances of common shares or contracts to which common shares are indexed at less than the stated conversion prices.  Holders of the Company’s Series A Preferred are not entitled to dividends and the Holder has no voting rights.
 
Note 13 - Derivative financial instruments:

The balance sheet caption derivative liabilities consist of Warrants, issued in connection with the 2005 Laurus Financing Arrangement, and the 2006 Omnibus Amendment and Waiver Agreement with Laurus. These derivative financial instruments are indexed to an aggregate of 1,658,333 and 2,358,333 shares of the Company’s common stock as of December 31, 2011 and  2010 and are carried at fair value. The balance at December 31, 2011 and, 2010 was $96,367 and $228,108 respectively.
 
The valuation of the derivative warrant liabilities is determined using a Black Scholes Merton Model. Freestanding derivative instruments, consisting of warrants and options that arose from the Laurus financing are valued using the Black-Scholes-Merton valuation methodology because that model embodies all of the relevant assumptions that address the features underlying these instruments. Significant assumptions used in the Black Scholes models as of December 31, 2011 and 2010 included conversion or strike prices ranging from $0.10 - $1.10; historical volatility factors ranging from 123.01% - 183.73% based upon forward terms of instruments; terms-remaining term for all instruments; and a risk free rate ranging from 0.27% - 3.36%.
 
Note 14 - Dividends
 
The Company accrued and recorded dividends payable on the 520,160 shares of 5% Series B Preferred Stock for the period ended December 31, 2011 and 2010. Dividends have not been declared and cannot be paid as long as the Company has an outstanding balance on its revolving line of credit.

ASC 470 provides for preferred stock to be accreted to its redemption value over the longer of the term to maturity, which is not present in the Series D Preferred, or the date of the first conversion. Since the Series D Preferred is convertible on the issuance date, a day-one deemed dividend of $1,063,636 was recorded to accrete the Series D Preferred to its redemption value (See Note 6).

The Company operates in multiple state tax jurisdictions.  Tax positions are evaluated and liabilities are established for uncertain tax positions that may be challenged by local authorities and may not be supportable under examination.  Tax positions and liabilities are established in accordance with applicable accounting guidance on uncertainty in income taxes in light of changing facts and circumstances.  Based on current available information, the Company believes that a reasonable estimate cannot be made if challenged and not sustained.  Accordingly no provision has been made for the period ended December 31, 2011.

Note 20 - Adjustments and Reclassification
 
During 2011 the Company issued 2011 quarterly financial statements reflecting recording the purchase of preferred Class D stock (see note 6 above), the Company has reviewed this transaction and realized that the beneficial conversion feature was not properly recorded (omitted) in the Statement of Consolidated Operation and the Consolidated Balance Sheet for each of the quarters filed in 2011. The Company evaluated the errors under SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin 108 and concluded the errors were not material to cause amendment to previous filings and therefore correct the errors in this filing.
