I-SECTOR CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(In thousands, except share and per share amounts)
1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
I-Sector Corporation and subsidiaries (“I-Sector” or the “Company”) are engaged in the sale and support of IP communications solutions, IP communications network infrastructure, proprietary call center computer-telephony software, and centralized management of remote-enabled computer networks and help desks.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited financial data as of September 30, 2005 and for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2004 and 2005 have been prepared by the Company, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The December 31, 2004 Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles in the United States. However, the Company believes the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and the notes thereto, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004.
In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include normal recurring adjustments, except as disclosed herein) necessary to present a fair presentation of financial position as of September 30, 2005, results of operations for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2004 and 2005, cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2004 and 2005, and stockholders’ equity for the nine months ended September 30, 2005, have been included. The results of the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year or any future period.
Revenue Recognition
I-Sector has a number of different revenue components, which vary between its reportable operating segments. Each reportable operating segment has more than one revenue component, and revenue is recognized differently for each component of revenue earned by operating segment. The material revenue earned by I-Sector, some of which is earned by more than one operating segment, and some by only one operating segment, are:
Products Revenue. Each of I-Sector’s operating segments earn revenue from product shipments. I-Sector recognizes revenue from product shipments when the product is shipped or delivered to the customer.
Services Revenue. All of I-Sector’s operating segments earn revenue from providing stand-alone services. This revenue consists of billings for engineering and technician time, programming services, which are provided on either an hourly basis or a flat-fee basis, support contracts and the service component of maintenance and repair service transactions. These services are contracted for separately from any product sale, and are generally completed in less than three months. Service revenues are recognized when the service is performed and when collection is reasonably assured. Two of I-Sector’s segments sometimes earn agency fee revenue from various sources, the primary source of which is referring customers to other organizations for which an agency fee is received. This revenue is recognized at the earlier of when payment is received or when notification of amounts due is received from the entity paying such agency fee and collectibility is reasonably assured.
One of I-Sector’s segments, Internetwork Experts, Inc. (“INX”), has fixed and flat fee services contracts that extend over three months or more, and are accounted for on the percentage of completion method of accounting. The percentage of revenue recognized in any particular period is determined on the basis of the relationship of the actual hours worked to estimated total hours to complete the contract. Revisions of the estimated hours to complete are reflected in the period in which the facts necessitating the revisions become known. When a contract indicates a loss, a provision is made for the total anticipated loss.

Custom Project Revenue. One of I-Sector’s segments, Stratasoft, earns revenue from projects that are recognized using the percentage of completion method of accounting. The majority of Stratasoft’s revenue consists of system sales in which it bundles its proprietary software, along with third-party hardware products and material related software customization services, installation, training services, warranty services and incidental post contract support (“PCS”) together under a single contract with the customer. PCS is insignificant on such contracts for one year or less, and therefore, we have determined that the value of such PCS should not be unbundled from the project revenue as set forth in paragraph 59 of SOP 97-2. Accordingly, such PCS revenue is recognized together with the project revenue, and the estimated cost to provide the PCS is accrued. The value of the PCS is determinable within the contract, which defines the period that the PCS is granted and offers renewals at stated amounts, thereby defining the value of the PCS. The software customization, together with the hardware customization and integration, represent a significant modification, customization and/or production of the product and, therefore, the entire arrangement is required to be accounted for using the percentage of completion method of accounting pursuant to SOP 81-1. The Company follows this method since reasonably dependable estimates of the revenue and costs applicable to various stages of a contract can be made. Revisions of estimates are reflected in the period in which the facts necessitating the revisions become known. When a contract indicates a loss, a provision is made for the total anticipated loss. The percentage-of-completion method relies on estimates of expected contract revenue and costs. Prior to January 1, 2005, the percentage of revenue recognized in any particular period was determined principally on the basis of the relationship of the cost of work performed on the contract compared to the estimated total costs expected to be incurred under the contract. Effective January 1, 2005, the Company changed its method of computing the percentage of completion from total project costs to total labor costs, as further discussed in Note 5. The following reflects the amounts relating to uncompleted contracts:
                 
    December 31,     September 30,  
    2004     2005  
Costs incurred on uncompleted contracts
  $ 1,675     $ 1,748

    4,862       2,996

Billings in excess of cost and estimated earnings
    (63 )     (261 )
 
           
Total
  $ 1,600     $ 758  
 
           
Vendor Incentives
INX participates in a significant vendor incentive program. The incentives are generally earned based on sales volume, sales growth and customer satisfaction levels. The amounts earned under these programs are accrued when realization is deemed probable and can be reasonably measured; otherwise, they are recorded when they are declared by the vendor or the cash is received, whichever is earlier. The incentives are recorded as a reduction of cost of goods and services. Selling, general and administrative expenses are increased for any associated commission expense and payroll tax related to the incentives. When vendor incentives are not recognized until vendor declaration or cash receipt, then their effect on cost of goods can vary significantly among quarterly and annual reporting periods. Vendor incentives of $1,613 and $1,236 were recognized during the three-month periods ended September 30, 2004 and 2005, respectively. Vendor incentives of $2,235 and $2,305 were recognized during the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2004 and 2005, respectively. Vendor incentives of $622 in 2004 related to the six-month measurement period ended January 31, 2004 and vendor incentives of $1,613 related to the seven-month period ended September 1, 2004. Vendor incentives for the 2005 periods are for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2005.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company has elected to account for employee stock-based compensation using the intrinsic value method of accounting in accordance with Accounting Principles Bulletin (“APB”) No. 25 “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees”. Under this method no compensation expense is recognized when the number of shares granted is known and the exercise price of the stock option is equal to or greater than the fair value of the common stock on the grant date. I-Sector and its subsidiaries apply the fair value method as prescribed by SFAS No. 123, as interpreted and amended, for stock and stock options issued to non-employees and during the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2004, recorded $10 expense and a $29 benefit, respectively.
If compensation cost for all option issuances had been determined consistent with the fair value method, I-Sector’s net income (loss) and net income (loss) per share would have increased to the pro-forma amounts indicated below. For purposes of the disclosures below, the fair value of each stock option has been estimated on the grant date with a Black-Scholes option pricing model using the following weighted-average assumptions for the 2004 and 2005 periods; dividend yield of 0% for all periods; expected volatility of

In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123(R), which amends SFAS No. 123 and supersedes APB Opinion No. 25. SFAS No. 123(R) requires compensation expense to be recognized for all share-based payments made to employees based on the fair value of the award at the date of grant, eliminating the intrinsic value alternative allowed by SFAS No. 123. Generally, the approach for determining fair value under the original pronouncement has not changed. However, there are revisions to the accounting guidelines established, such as accounting for forfeitures, that will change the Company’s accounting for stock-based awards in the future.
SFAS No. 123(R) must be adopted in the first annual period beginning after June 15, 2005. The statement allows companies to adopt its provisions using either of the following transition alternatives:
  The modified prospective method, which results in the recognition of compensation expense using SFAS No. 123(R) for all share-based awards granted after the effective date and the recognition of compensation expense using SFAS No. 123 for all previously granted share-based awards that remain unvested at the effective date; or
 
  The modified retrospective method, which results in applying the modified prospective method and restating prior periods by recognizing the financial statement impact of share-based payments in a manner consistent with the pro forma disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 123. The modified retrospective method may be applied to all prior periods presented or previously reported interim periods of the year of adoption.
The Company currently plans to adopt SFAS No. 123(R) on January 1, 2006 using the modified prospective method. This change in accounting is not expected to materially impact the Company’s financial position. However, because the Company currently accounts for share-based payments to employees using the intrinsic value method, the results of operations generally have not included the recognition of compensation expense for the issuance of stock option awards. The Company has not calculated the impact of this statement on our previous or future operating results as it is still determining the appropriate fair value method to be used.
The Company will be required to recognize expense related to stock options and other types of equity-based compensation beginning in 2006 and such cost must be recognized over the period during which the recipient is required to provide service in exchange for the award. The requisite service period is usually the vesting period. The standard also requires the Company to estimate the number of instruments that will ultimately be issued, rather than accounting for forfeitures as they occur. Additionally, the Company may be required to change the method used to determine the fair value of stock options.
3. ACQUISITIONS
The Company completed two acquisitions during May and June, 2005 as detailed below. The acquisitions were consummated to improve the Company’s geographical presence and enhance its technical capabilities.
Network Architects, Corp.
Effective May 26, 2005, the Company acquired the operations and certain assets of Network Architects, Corp. (“Netarch”), a data network and IP telephony systems design, installation and support business with branches in Albuquerque, New Mexico, and El Paso,

Texas. The consideration paid at closing consisted of cash in the amount of $2,000, common stock valued at $2,000, and payment of a note payable to a bank in the amount of $300. Legal and other costs of $66 were paid in cash in connection with the transaction. The calculation of the 308,166 shares of Company’s common stock issued was determined by dividing $2,000 by the average closing price per share for the Common Stock as reported by AMEX for the five consecutive trading days ending May 20, 2005.
The Company will pay Netarch additional purchase price consideration if certain financial milestones are achieved. To the extent that the operating profit attributable to Netarch’s former Albuquerque, New Mexico, and El Paso, Texas, branches (“Operating Profit”) during the twelve-month period ending May 31, 2006 is positive, the Company will pay Netarch an additional purchase price equal to 75% of Operating Profit during such period. This additional purchase price shall not exceed $525, and at the Company’s option 50% of such additional purchase price may be paid in the form of common stock. In addition, the Company will issue Netarch a maximum of 75,000 shares of common stock following each of the twelve-month periods ending May 31, 2006, 2007 and 2008 if Operating Profit during such periods exceeds $600, $660, and $726, respectively. If Operating Profit is less than the applicable milestone for any of the three years, the number of shares of common stock issuable by the Company shall be equal to 75,000 multiplied the percentage of actual Operating Profit during the period as compared to the applicable milestone. Additional purchase price consideration, if any, will be recorded as goodwill.
InfoGroup Northwest, Inc.
Effective June 29, 2005, the Company acquired the operations and certain assets of the InfoGroup Northwest, Inc. (“InfoGroup”) network solutions business with branches in Seattle, Washington, and Portland and Eugene, Oregon. The consideration paid at closing consisted of cash in the amount of $1,900 and common stock valued at $500. Legal, broker, and other costs of $135 were incurred in connection with the transaction, of which $12 was paid through the issuance of 1,586 shares of common stock and the remainder paid in cash. The calculation of the 63,516 shares of the Company’s common stock issued was determined by dividing $500 by the average closing price per share for the common stock as reported by AMEX for the five consecutive trading days ending June 24, 2005.
The Company will pay InfoGroup additional purchase price consideration if operating profit attributable to InfoGroup’s former Seattle, Washington, and Portland and Eugene, Oregon, branches (“Operating Profit”) during the twelve-month period ending June 30, 2006 is at least $400. 50% of such additional purchase price will be paid in cash and the remaining 50% shall be paid in the form of common stock. The additional purchase price will be $300 if Operating Profit is between $400 and $550; $500 if Operating Profit is between $550 and $650; $900 if Operating Profit is between $650 and $700 and $1,000, plus 50% of the Operating Profit over and above $700 if Operating Profit exceeds $700. Additional purchase price consideration, if any, will be recorded as goodwill.
The following table summarizes the estimated fair values, including professional fees and other related acquisition costs, at the date of acquisition. The Company obtained a preliminary third party valuation estimate of certain tangible and intangible assets, which is subject to refinement.

4. SEGMENT INFORMATION
I-Sector has four reportable segments: INX, Stratasoft, Valerent and Corporate. Corporate is not a revenue generating operating segment. The accounting policies of the business segments are the same as those for I-Sector. I-Sector evaluates performance of each segment based on operating income. Inter-segment sales and transfers are not significant and are shown in the Eliminations column in the following table. The tables below show the results of the four reportable segments:

5. CHANGE IN APPLICATION OF ACCOUNTING METHOD
Prior to 2005, the Stratasoft segment recognized revenue under the percentage of completion method based on the relationship of total cost incurred to total estimated cost over the duration of the project. Effective January 1, 2005, the Stratasoft segment changed its method of applying the percentage of completion accounting method to the relationship of labor cost incurred to total estimated labor

cost over the duration of the project. Management believes the newly adopted method of applying the accounting principle is preferable in Stratasoft’s circumstances because using labor cost as the input measure more accurately reflects the labor intensive customization and modification that now occurs to the Stratasoft hardware and software more evenly over the duration of Stratasoft’s projects. Accordingly, the labor cost input method more appropriately measures the progress towards completion over the duration of Stratasoft’s projects.
The change in accounting method was applied by recording the cumulative effect of the change amounting to $566 in the condensed consolidated statement of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2005. Had the change in accounting method not been made, net loss for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2005 would have decreased by $156 or $0.03 per share (basic and diluted) and increased by $381 or $0.07 per share (basic and diluted), respectively. The pro forma effect has not been presented for prior periods due to the inability to accurately compute the effect of the change prior to December 31, 2004. Due to the Company’s net operating loss carryforward position, there is no income tax effect to the cumulative effect adjustment.
6. EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS is based on the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during each period and the assumed exercise of dilutive stock options and warrants less the number of treasury shares assumed to be purchased from the proceeds using the average market price of the Company’s common stock for each of the periods presented.
In the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2004, net income from continuing operations for purposes of computing the income per share decreased $41 and $32, respectively, for the assumed exercise of INX options under the treasury method. For the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2005, I-Sector’s potentially dilutive options of 1,131,766 and 1,151,825, respectively, were not used in the calculation of diluted earnings since the effect of potentially dilutive securities in computing a loss per share is antidilutive.

7. STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY
Elimination of Minority Interest in INX
On March 18, 2005, the Company acquired all of the INX shares held by a minority shareholder group in exchange for 244,890 shares of I-Sector common stock. The transaction was recorded using the purchase method of accounting, resulting in recognition of goodwill of $1,408 including transaction costs of $180, elimination of $302 in minority interests, and an increase in common stock and additional paid-in-capital of $1,530. In connection with the transaction, INX stock options were exchanged for I-Sector stock options, requiring remeasurement of the stock options as of the date of exchange. The resulting $5,729 charge to earnings was reflected as an increase in selling, general, and administrative expenses with a corresponding increase in additional paid-in-capital and therefore had no impact on total stockholders’ equity.
Common Stock Repurchase Plan
Effective March 31, 2005, the Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to 200,000 shares of the Company’s common stock on or before July 31, 2005. These repurchases were required to be made in open market or privately negotiated transactions in compliance with Rule 10b-18 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, subject to market and business conditions, applicable legal requirements and other factors. The plan did not obligate the Company to purchase any particular amount of common stock, and could be suspended at any time at the Company’s discretion. The plan expired on July 31, 2005 with no common stock repurchased.
Warrants
Included in the units issued by I-Sector in a public offering that closed on May 7, 2004 were 575,000 warrants to purchase common stock at an exercise price of $12.45 per share. These warrants are exercisable through May 7, 2009 and are subject to redemption by I-Sector at a price of $0.25 per warrant upon 30 days notice to the holders; however, the Company may only redeem the warrants if the closing price for the Company’s common stock, as reported on the principal exchange on which such shares trade, for any five consecutive days has equaled or exceeded $16.60.
On May 7, 2004 I-Sector issued warrants to the underwriters to purchase up to 50,000 units at an exercise price equal to $19.92 per unit. These warrants are exercisable during the four-year period beginning May 7, 2005 which is one year from the date of the prospectus. Pursuant to NASD Rule 2710(g), these warrants cannot be sold, transferred, assigned, pledged or hypothecated by any person for a period of one year following the effective date of the offering, except to any NASD member participating in the offering, to bona fide officers, by operation of law or if the Company is reorganized, so long as the securities so transferred remain subject to the same transfer restriction for the remainder of the one-year period. The holder of the representative’s warrant will have, in that capacity, no voting, dividend or other stockholder rights.
8. STOCK OPTION PLANS
Under the 1996 Incentive Stock Plan (the “1996 Incentive Plan”) and the 1996 Non-Employee Director Stock Option Plan (the “Director Plan”) as approved by the shareholders, I-Sector’s Compensation Committee may grant up to 417,500 shares of common stock, which have been reserved for issuance to certain employees of I-Sector. At September 30, 2005, 5,150 shares were available for future grant under the 1996 Incentive Plan. The 1996 Incentive Plan provides for the granting of incentive awards in the form of stock options, restricted stock, phantom stock, stock bonuses and cash bonuses in accordance with the provisions of the plan. Additionally, no shares may be granted after the tenth anniversary of the 1996 Incentive Plan’s adoption. I-Sector has reserved for issuance, under the Director Plan, 100,000 shares of common stock, subject to certain anti-dilution adjustments, of which no shares were available for future grants at September 30, 2005. The Director Plan provides for a one-time grant to newly elected directors to purchase up to 5,000 common shares, after which each director is entitled to receive an option to purchase up to 5,000 common shares upon each date of re-election to I-Sector’s Board of Directors. Options granted under the Director Plan and the 1996 Incentive Plan have an exercise price equal to the fair market value on the date of grant and generally expire ten years after the grant date.
The I-Sector Corporation Incentive Plan provides for the granting of incentive awards in the form of stock-based awards and cash bonuses in accordance with the provisions of the plan. All employees, including officers, and consultants and non-employee directors are eligible to participate in the I-Sector Corporation Incentive Plan. Generally, the Compensation Committee has the discretion to determine the exercise price of each stock option under the I-Sector Corporation Incentive Plan, and they must be exercised within ten

years of the grant date, except those classified as Incentive Stock Option (“ISO”) grants to a 10% or greater stockholder. ISO options grants to a 10% or greater stockholder must be exercised within five years of the grant date. The exercise price of each ISO option grant may not be less than 100% of the fair market value of a share of common stock on the date of grant (110% in the case of a 10% or greater stockholder). At September 30, 2005, 391,000 shares were available for future option grants under the I-Sector Corporation Incentive Plan.
During April 2005, options for 10,000 shares were granted to an employee at an exercise price of $0.01. The difference between the exercise price and fair market value at date of grant of $57 was charged to earnings during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2005, with a corresponding increase in additional paid-in-capital, resulting in no impact on total stockholders’ equity.

9. FLOORPLAN LINE OF CREDIT
On September 30, 2005 the Company and its senior lender signed an amendment to its existing $25 million senior credit facility. The First Amendment Agreement (“Amendment”) was effective September 9, 2005, and includes the following terms:
    Extends the term of the $25 million floorplan line of credit facility to September 9, 2007, unless terminated earlier as provided in the Amendment. Inventory and accounts receivable for the Dallas Independent School District (DISD) are excluded from the availability calculation under the facility except as provided under the multiple advance working capital credit facility.
 
    Provides a working capital revolving line of credit under the above floorplan facility with an aggregate outstanding principal sublimit of $10 million.
 
    Provides a multiple advance working capital credit facility under the floorplan line in the maximum amount of $4 million for a term of 60 days with the outstanding principal balance not to exceed 30% of eligible DISD receivables.
 
    Charges interest payable monthly at the rate of prime plus .5% on revolving credit loans and prime plus 2.5% on multiple advance working capital loans.
 
    Amends certain restrictive covenants.
Total borrowings under the floor plan line of credit facility were $16,024 and $17,973 as of December 31, 2004 and September 30, 2005, respectively, of which $7,902 and $8,970 are non-interest bearing and reflected in accounts payable in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets at December 31, 2004 and September 30, 2005, respectively. Interest bearing borrowings were $8,122 and $9,003 at December 31, 2004 and September 30, 2005, respectively, and reflected in notes payable in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

10. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
Telecom and Computer Products Divisions
During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2005, the Company resolved the collectability of certain accounts receivable and revised the estimated future expenses for pending litigation relative to its discontinued Telecom and Computer Products Divisions, resulting in a gain of $58, net of taxes. The balance sheet caption “Other current liabilities” includes $625 and $571 at December 31, 2004 and September 30, 2005, respectively, for estimated future expenses related to settlement of pending litigation of discontinued operations. Management intends to vigorously contest the claim and believes that any additional liability that may ultimately result from the resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the financial condition or results of operations of the Company.
Stratasoft and Valerent Subsidiaries
On November 3, 2005, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a plan to sell the Stratasoft and Valerent subsidiaries. Raymond James Associates has been engaged as financial advisor in connection with the planned sale of Stratasoft. This action was taken due to continuing losses at Stratasoft and the decision to build value with a focused strategy in the operations at INX. The following pro forma consolidated amounts give effect to the Company’s planned disposal of Stratasoft and Valerent as if they had occurred January 1, 2004. The pro forma consolidated amounts are not necessarily indicative of the operating results that would have been achieved had the transaction been in effect as of the beginning of the periods presented and should not be construed as being representative of future operating results. Subsequent reported operating results will reflect the results of these two businesses as discontinued operations.

General
We are a leading regional provider of IP telephony and other network infrastructure and related implementation and support services. The IP telephony industry is characterized by rapidly evolving and competing technologies. We compete with larger and better financed entities. Our principal offices are currently located in Texas, New Mexico, Oregon, and Washington, and we primarily market to potential customers headquartered in, or making purchasing decisions from, those states. Our long-term goal, however, is to become one of the leading national providers of Cisco-centric network and IP telephony solutions to enterprises.
We begin Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations with an overview of the following:
    Planned sale of two business units
 
    Proposed name change and elimination of holding company structure
 
    Acquisitions completed during the second quarter of 2005
 
    Elimination of minority interest in INX
 
    Change in application of an accounting principle for the Stratasoft business unit that was subsequently discontinued in the fourth quarter of 2005.
Planned Sale of Two Business Units
On November 3, 2005, the Board approved a plan to sell its Stratasoft, Inc. and Valerent, Inc. business units. We have engaged Raymond James Associates as a financial advisor in connection with the sale of Stratasoft. Subsequent reported operating results will reflect the results of these two businesses as discontinued operations.
Because of the continuing losses at Stratasoft, we determined that it would be in the in the best interest of the Company’s stockholders to sell this business unit and build value with a focused strategy in our core operations at INX. Additionally, we have begun to work with a number of brokers and investment bankers on a non-exclusive basis to secure a buyer for our Valerent business. The Valerent

business unit, which accounts for only about five percent of our total revenues, is not strategic to the goal of building a leading national provider of Cisco-centric IP Communications solutions for enterprise organizations.
Proposed Name Change and Elimination of Holding Company Structure
On November 3, 2005, our Board approved the merger of our primary operating subsidiary, InterNetwork Experts, Inc., into I-Sector. Following this transaction, the Company will adopt a new corporate name. The combined entity and name change will more accurately reflect our singular focus on providing enterprise IP Communications solutions and support. The Company anticipates that the merger and name change will be complete before December 31, 2005.
Acquisitions
The Company completed two acquisitions during May and June, 2005 as detailed below. The acquisitions were consummated to improve the Company’s geographical presence and enhance its technical capabilities.
Network Architects, Corp.
Effective May 26, 2005, the Company acquired the operations and certain assets of Network Architects, Corp. (“Netarch”), a data network and IP telephony systems design, installation and support business with branches in Albuquerque, New Mexico, and El Paso, Texas. The consideration paid at closing consisted of cash in the amount of $2,000, restricted common stock valued at $2,000, and payment of a note payable to a bank in the amount of $300. Legal and other costs of $66 were paid in cash in connection with the transaction. The calculation of the 308,166 shares of Company’s common stock issued was determined by dividing $2,000 by the average closing price per share for the Common Stock as reported by AMEX for the five consecutive trading days ending May 20, 2005.
The Company will pay Netarch additional purchase price consideration if certain financial milestones are achieved. To the extent that the operating profit attributable to Netarch’s former Albuquerque, New Mexico, and El Paso, Texas, branches (“Operating Profit”) during the twelve-month period ending May 31, 2006 is positive, the Company will pay Netarch an additional purchase price equal to 75% of Operating Profit over such period. This additional purchase price shall not exceed $525, and at the Company’s option 50% of such additional purchase price may be paid in the form of common stock. In addition, the Company will issue Netarch a maximum of 75,000 shares of common stock following each of the twelve-month periods ending May 31, 2006, 2007 and 2008 if Operating Profit during such periods exceeds $600, $660, and $726, respectively. If Operating Profit is less than the applicable milestone for any of the three years, the number of shares of common stock issuable by the Company shall be equal to 75,000 multiplied the percentage of actual Operating Profit during the period as compared to the applicable milestone. Additional purchase price consideration, if any, will be recorded as goodwill.
InfoGroup Northwest, Inc.
Effective June 29, 2005, the Company acquired the operations and certain assets of the InfoGroup Northwest, Inc. (“InfoGroup”) network solutions business with branches in Seattle, Washington, and Portland and Eugene, Oregon. The consideration paid at closing consisted of cash in the amount of $1,900 and restricted common stock valued at $500. Legal, broker, and other costs of $135 were incurred in connection with the transaction, of which $12 was paid through the issuance of 1,586 shares of common stock and the remainder paid in cash. The calculation of the 63,516 shares of the Company’s common stock issued was determined by dividing $500 by the average closing price per share for the common stock as reported by AMEX for the five consecutive trading days ending June 24, 2005.
The Company will pay InfoGroup additional purchase price consideration if operating profit attributable to InfoGroup’s former Seattle, Washington, and Portland and Eugene, Oregon, branches (“Operating Profit”) during the twelve-month period ending June 30, 2006 is at least $400. 50% of such additional purchase price will be paid in cash and the remaining 50% shall be paid in the form of common stock. The additional purchase price will be $300 if Operating Profit is between $400 and $550; $500 if Operating Profit is between $550 and $650; $900 if Operating Profit is between $650 and $700 and $1,000, plus 50% of the Operating Profit over and above $700 if Operating Profit exceeds $700. Additional purchase price consideration, if any, will be recorded as goodwill.

Elimination of Minority Interest in INX
Between April 2004 and March 18, 2005, our INX subsidiary had a minority interest. The minority interest was eliminated through an exchange of the minority interest for 244,890 shares of I-Sector common stock on March 18, 2005.
Prior to April 2004, INX had been our wholly-owned subsidiary. In April 2004, INX ceased to be a wholly-owned subsidiary as the result of the issuance of INX common stock to the former owners of Digital Precision, Inc., which INX acquired in April 2003. In connection with that acquisition, we agreed to issue to the seller 1,800,000 shares of INX common stock as additional purchase consideration for their business if certain employees remained employed through April 4, 2004, the first anniversary of the acquisition. This condition was met and the INX stock was issued in April 2004. At the time of issuance of that INX common stock, we recognized additional customer list value of $234 as an intangible asset to be amortized over a two year period. When that issuance occurred, our ownership percentage of INX’s common stock declined to approximately 92.4%, and we recognized $162 of minority interest on our balance sheet upon issuance.
On February 1, 2005, we entered into an agreement with the INX minority shareholders to eliminate the minority interest through an exchange of the INX minority shareholders’ interest for a similar interest in I-Sector, contingent upon I-Sector stockholder approval. Upon stockholder approval on March 18, 2005, INX became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. The exchange of the minority interest resulted in a remeasurement of the stock options that were part of the minority interest and such remeasurement resulted in a $5,729 one-time non-cash charge to earnings, which was equal to the intrinsic value of the stock options on March 18, 2005. The charge to earnings was reflected as an increase in selling, general, and administrative expenses with a corresponding increase in additional paid-in-capital. As a result, the exchange of options had no impact on total stockholders’ equity.
The elimination of the minority interest simplifies our capital structure and eliminates the minority interest on our financial statements, but increases the shares used to compute diluted earnings per share due to the shares of our common stock issued in the exchange and because of the increased number of stock options resulting from exchanging INX stock options for our stock options.
Our consolidated financial statements for periods prior to March 18, 2005, the date of the exchange, reflected a minority interest adjustment of the profits and losses of INX attributable to the minority ownership. For 2004, we reported income attributable to minority interest of $117 in our statement of operations and a minority interest balance of $279 in our balance sheet. For the period January 1, 2005 through March 18, 2005 we reported income attributable to minority interest of $23 in our statement of operations. The elimination of the minority interest through the issuance of Company stock was recorded under the purchase method of accounting. Goodwill of $1,400 and the elimination of the $302 minority interest balance were recorded, offset by an increase in common stock and additional paid-in-capital of $1,530.
Change in the Application of Accounting Method for Stratasoft Projects
Effective January 1, 2005 we began accounting for the percentage of completion of our Stratasoft projects based upon the percentage of labor cost incurred as compared to total estimated labor cost rather than total cost incurred compared to total estimated cost. Management believes the newly adopted accounting method is preferable for Stratasoft projects because using labor cost as the input measure more accurately reflects the labor intensive customization and modification that now occurs to the Stratasoft hardware and software more evenly over the duration of a project. Accordingly, the labor cost input method more appropriately measures the progress towards completion over the duration of Stratasoft projects.
The change in accounting method was applied by recording the cumulative effect of the change amounting to $566 in the condensed consolidated statement of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2005. Had the change in accounting method not been made, net loss for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2005 would have decreased by $156 or $0.03 per share (basic and diluted) and increased by $381 or $0.07 per share (basic and diluted), respectively. The pro forma effect has not been presented for prior periods due to the inability to accurately compute the effect of the change prior to December 31, 2004. Due to the Company’s net operating loss carryforward position, there is no income tax effect to the cumulative effect adjustment.
Results Of Operations
Overview
Sources of Revenue. Our revenue is derived from three segments represented by our three operating subsidiaries, INX, Stratasoft and Valerent. During the quarter ended September 30, 2005, INX, Stratasoft and Valerent accounted for 93.1%, 2.2% and 4.7%,

22


Table of Contents

respectively, of total consolidated revenue. During the nine months ended September 30, 2005, INX, Stratasoft and Valerent accounted for 90.8%, 4.2% and 5.0%, respectively, of total consolidated revenue.
INX revenue consists of product and service revenue. Product revenue consists of reselling Cisco products and limited amounts of complementary products by other manufacturers. Service revenue is generated by fees from a variety of implementation and support services. Product prices for INX are set by the market for Cisco products, and provide our lowest gross margins. Service revenue for INX has recently provided a higher gross margin that has generally increased over the past several years as the cost of INX’s technical resources, which are reflected as a cost of service, has decreased as a percentage of services revenue. Also, fixed and flat fee service contracts that extend over three months or more are accounted for using the percentage of completion method of accounting. Historically, the majority of INX’s services revenue has been generated from implementation services, which is project oriented and tends to be volatile. As the number, frequency and size of INX projects has grown, INX has achieved better utilization of its engineering resources resulting in improved gross margins on services. The normal sales cycles for corporate customers typically ranges from three to six months depending on the nature, scope and size of the deal involved. However, our direct experience with school districts involved in E-Rate funding (a governmental funding program for schools) indicates that the sales lead time is generally about six to twelve months.
As previously reported, during late 2004 and during mid 2005, we experienced significant payment delays related to receivables owed to the Company related to a project for the Dallas Independent School District (“DISD”) that is partially funded by DISD and partially funded by the Schools and Libraries Division (the “SLD”) of the Universal Services Administration Company, an organization under the Federal Communications Commission that administers the E-Rate program, a Federally funded program that partially funds network and connectivity technology infrastructure for schools. The DISD project is performed by a consortium of vendors, including the Company, and administered by one of the consortium members that has been appointed to act as the lead consortium member. In August 2005, we learned through communication with DISD and other consortium members that SLD had placed on hold payment of all outstanding DISD project receivables pending completion of its inquiry into information that appeared in the press concerning the lead consortium member. The SLD inquiry was completed in late September and payments to the Company and other consortium members resumed. At September 30, 2005, we had approximately $12.4 million in receivables outstanding under the SLD-funded DISD project and have received $7.9 million in payments after September 30, 2005.
In mid-2003, INX introduced Netsurant, its branded support service that consists primarily of customer service personnel and a support center, and such new support service offering required an upfront fixed cost to operate a network operations center to monitor customer’s systems. This initially created negative gross margins from this new Netsurant service offering. Netsurant services gross margin turned positive in the first quarter of 2005 and has improved in subsequent quarters as Netsurant support services revenue grows compared to the fixed cost of operating the network operations center. We anticipate that the Netsurant support offering could further improve overall services gross margins. Through September 30, 2005, Netsurant service revenue was not material.
Stratasoft revenue consists primarily of custom project revenue from the sale of proprietary computer-telephony software. Our Stratasoft revenue is reported as custom project revenue in our financial statements, because it consists of products and services which cannot be accounted for separately. Stratasoft has traditionally provided our highest gross margin since it is primarily sales of our proprietary computer-telephony software. Our cost of goods sold for Stratasoft’s custom project revenue includes the costs of developing our computer-telephony software products, installation costs, and the cost of hardware and other equipment bundled with our software applications and included in a sale to a customer. Stratasoft revenue also includes sales to resellers. The sales to resellers are recorded when the sale becomes fixed or determinable; otherwise revenue from resellers is recorded when payments become due.
Valerent revenue consists of both product revenue and services revenue. Product revenue consists of reselling primarily software products, and to a lesser degree, hardware products, that facilitate Valerent’s managed services, including remote management software products from Altiris, Inc., and security software products from Network Associates, Inc. Product sales prices for Valerent are set by the market for these products, and Valerent’s product sales have typically provided lower gross profit margins than its services revenue. Valerent’s services revenue consists of remote and onsite technical assistance to its customers. Valerent’s gross margin on service revenue, much like INX’s implementation services revenue, is subject to variability based upon the utilization of Valerent’s billable technical resources. Recurring service agreements exist with some customers, but usually with varying terms and conditions that conform to their year over year business changes and their specific needs, and while these agreements provide somewhat predictable and stable sources of revenue, the loss of a recurring agreement could disrupt the stability of that revenue component for Valerent.
Gross Profit and Gross Profit Margin. The mix of our various revenue components, each of which has substantially different levels of gross margin, materially influences our overall gross profit and gross margin in any particular quarter. In periods in which service revenue or Stratasoft custom project revenue are high, as compared to INX and Valerent product sales, our gross margin generally improves as compared to periods in which we have higher levels of product sales. Our gross margin for product sales also varies

23


Table of Contents

depending on the type of product sold, the mix of large revenue product contracts, which typically have lower gross margin, as compared to smaller revenue product contracts, which typically have higher gross margin.
In addition, our quarterly gross profit and gross margin can be materially affected by vendor incentives received in certain quarterly periods, most of which are Cisco incentives received by INX. The incentive programs sponsored by Cisco currently enable us to qualify for cash rebates or product pricing discounts. These incentives are generally earned based on sales volume, sales growth and customer satisfaction levels. The amounts earned under these programs are recorded as a reduction of cost of goods and can vary significantly between periods. Currently, incentives by Cisco are paid semiannually, and are typically paid in the first and third quarters of each calendar year. Incentives are recognized when we receive payment from the supplier or when we have earned and can reasonably estimate the amount due from the supplier. During the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2005, we recognized $1,236 and $2,305, respectively, in vendor incentives, and we accrued $233 and $478, respectively, in commission expense related to the vendor incentives earned by sales personnel in association with this vendor incentive program.
A significant portion of our cost of services for each of our service businesses is comprised of labor. Labor cost related to permanent employees is generally fixed in the short-term so that higher levels of service revenue produce higher gross margins while lower levels of service revenue produce lower gross margins. Our gross margin on services revenue fluctuates from period to period depending not only upon the prices charged to customers for our services, but also upon the level of utilization of our technical staff. Management of labor cost is therefore important in order to maximize gross margin. Our gross margin is also impacted by such factors as contract size, time and material pricing versus fixed fee pricing, discounting, vendor incentives and other business and marketing factors normally incurred during the conduct of business.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Our selling, general and administrative expenses include both fixed and variable expenses. Relatively fixed expenses in selling, general and administrative expenses include rent, utilities, promotion and advertising, and administrative wages. Variable expenses in selling, general and administrative expenses include sales commissions and travel, which will usually vary based on our sales and gross profit. Selling, general and administrative expenses also include expenses which vary significantly from period to period but not in proportion to sales or gross profit. These include legal expenses and bad debt expense both of which vary based on factors that are difficult to predict.
A significant portion of our selling, general and administrative expenses relate to personnel costs, some of which are variable and others that are relatively fixed. Our variable personnel costs consist primarily of sales commissions. Sales commissions are typically calculated based upon our gross profit on a particular sales transaction and thus generally fluctuate because of the size of the deal and the mix of associated products and services with our overall gross profit. Bad debt expense generally fluctuates somewhat in proportion to sales levels, although not always in the same periods as increases or decreases in sales. Legal expense varies based on legal issue activity, which can vary substantially from period to period. The remainder of selling, general and administrative expenses are relatively fixed and do not vary in direct proportion to increases in revenue.
Tax Loss Carryforward. Because of our prior operating losses we have accumulated a net operating loss carryforward for federal income tax purposes that, as of September 30, 2005, was approximately $2.2 million and is available to offset future federal taxable income. This carryforward expires during the period 2023 through 2025. In addition to potential expiration, there are several factors that could limit or eliminate our ability to use these carryforwards. For example, under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, use of prior net operating loss carryforwards is limited after an ownership change. If we achieve sustained profitability, which may not happen, the use of net operating loss carryforwards would reduce our tax liability and increase our net income and available cash resources. When all operating loss carryforwards have been used or have expired, we would again be subject to increased tax expense and reduced earnings due to such tax expense.
Period Comparisons. The following tables set forth, for the periods indicated, certain financial data derived from our consolidated statements of operations. Percentages shown in the table below are percentages of total revenue, except for each individual segment’s cost of sales and services, gross profit, selling, general and administrative expenses, and operating income, which are percentages of the respective segment’s revenue, and the product and service components of the INX and Valerent segments’ cost of goods sold and gross profit, which are percentages of such segment’s respective product and service revenue.

Three Months Ended September 30, 2004 Compared To the Three Months Ended September 30, 2005
Revenue. Our total revenue increased by $6,545, or 20.1%, from $32,612 to $39,157.
INX revenue increased by $7,774, or 27.1%, from $28,695 to $36,469. As a percentage of total revenue, INX revenue increased from 87.9% to 93.1%. INX product revenue increased $5,049, or 18.6% from $27,179 to $32,228. The increase in product revenue is primarily due to the revenue contribution from the Netarch and InfoGroup acquisitions.
INX service revenue increased $2,725 or 179.7% from $1,516 to $4,241. The increase in services is due to the revenue contribution from the Netarch and InfoGroup acquisitions, a Federal government contract for network services in Iraq, and design and installation services performed in conjunction with product sales.
Stratasoft revenue decreased by $1,671, or 66.0%, from $2,531 to $860. As a percentage of total revenue, Stratasoft revenue decreased from 7.8% to 2.2%. The decrease in Stratasoft revenue was substantially attributable to decreased contract bookings in the quarter, which were below our expectations and which we attribute to turmoil created by recent Stratasoft management changes.

Valerent revenue increased by $232, or 14.5%, from $1,598 to $1,830. As a percentage of total revenue, Valerent revenue decreased from 4.9% to 4.7%. The increase in Valerent revenue was primarily attributable to increased product revenue of $288, partially offset by a decrease in service revenue $56.
Gross Profit. Our total gross profit increased by $192, or 3.1%, from $6,109 to $6,301. Gross margin decreased from 18.7% to 16.1% due to changes in the gross margin of our INX, Stratasoft and Valerent subsidiaries as discussed below, as well as an increase, as a percentage of total revenue, of product sales revenue as compared to (i) service revenue and (ii) custom project revenue, each of which generate higher gross margins than product sales.
INX gross profit increased $1,110, or 25.5%, from $4,345 to $5,455. INX’s gross margin decreased from 15.1% to 15.0% . INX’s gross profit on its product sales component increased $178 or 4.5%, from $3,928 to $4,106 due to increased product sales revenue primarily attributable to the revenue contribution of acquisitions. INX’s gross profit on its service revenue component increased $932 or 223.5% from $417 to $1,349 and gross margin on INX service revenue increased from 27.5% to 31.8%. This increase in service gross margin was the result of the margin contribution of acquisitions, improved utilization of our engineering and technical staff on projects, as well as higher recurring post-sales support services revenues, which were generated with a somewhat more fixed cost of sales component, and which therefore resulted in increased gross margin on such revenues.
Stratasoft gross profit decreased by $874, or 72.4%, from $1,208 to $334. Stratasoft’s gross margin decreased from 47.7% to 38.8%. Stratasoft gross margin declined primarily due to reduced revenue combined with a fixed component of cost of sales in the form of software development programmer costs and installation and support technician costs, which do not decline during periods of reduced revenue. Gross profit declined because of the reduced revenue and the reduced gross margin on revenue.
Valerent gross profit decreased by $44, or 7.9%, from $556 to $512. Valerent’s gross margin decreased from 34.8% to 28.0%. The mix of product to services revenue contributed to the reduced gross margin.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $865, or 15.9% from $5,456 to $6,321. As a percentage of total revenue, these expenses decreased from 16.7% to 16.1%. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses is due to $1,002 in additional expenses from the Netarch and InfoGroup acquisitions partially offset by recoveries of doubtful accounts in the Stratasoft subsidiary.
We expect our future selling, general and administrative expenses to increase as we continue expenditures for compliance with the provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 as well as our continued ramp up for anticipated revenue growth. However, we do expect to be able to limit the increase of selling, general and administrative expenses such that these operating expenses grow at a lesser rate than expected revenue increases because we expect to be able to leverage certain categories of our operating expenses as we grow in the future.
Operating Profit (Loss). Operating profit decreased $673 from a profit of $653 to a loss of $20, due to the operating losses in the Stratasoft and Valerent subsidiaries. INX’s operating profit increased $116 from $1,013 to $1,129. Stratasoft’s operating profit decreased $679 from a loss of $211 to a loss of $890. Valerent’s operating profit decreased $74, from a profit of $34 to a loss of $40. The operating loss for the Corporate Segment increased $36, from a loss of $183 to a loss of $219.
Interest and Other Income (Expense), Net. Interest and other income (expense), net, changed by $197 from income of $17 to expense of $180 due to the increase in interest expense on increased borrowings under the Textron credit facility.
Loss on disposal of discontinued operations, net of tax. Loss on disposal of discontinued operations increased from $0 to $6, due to attorneys’ fees on collection and litigation matters.
Net income (loss). Net income decreased $853 from a profit of $618 to a loss of $235. Income tax expense for the period increased from $2 to $29, and there is a net operating tax loss carryforward of approximately $2.2 million as of September 30, 2005. Net deferred tax assets were fully offset by a valuation allowance at September 30, 2005.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2004 Compared To the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2005
Revenue. Our total revenue increased by $32,499, or 47.3%, from $68,774 to $101,273.
INX revenue increased by $34,299, or 59.5%, from $57,648 to $91,947. As a percentage of total revenue, INX revenue increased from 83.8% to 90.8%. INX product revenue increased $29,782, or 55.6% from $53,594 to $83,376. The increase in product revenue is due to increased numbers of sales account managers and general industry growth, as well as revenue contribution of four months from the Netarch acquisition and three months from the InfoGroup acquisition. INX service revenue increased $4,517 or 111.4% from $4,054 to $8,571. The increase in services is due to the revenue contribution from the Netarch and InfoGroup acquisitions, a Federal government contract for network services in Iraq, and design and installation services performed in conjunction with product sales.
Stratasoft revenue decreased by $2,593, or 37.9%, from $6,837 to $4,244. As a percentage of total revenue, Stratasoft revenue decreased from 9.9% to 4.2%. The decrease in Stratasoft revenue was substantially attributable to decreased contract bookings, which were below our expectations.

Table of Contents

Valerent revenue increased by $154, or 3.1%, from $4,952 to $5,106. As a percentage of total revenue, Valerent revenue decreased from 7.2% to 5.0%. The increase in Valerent revenue was primarily attributable to increased product revenue of $249, partially offset by a decrease in service revenue $95.
Gross Profit. Our total gross profit increased by $3,129, or 22.4%, from $13,944 to $17,073. Gross margin decreased from 20.3% to 16.9% due to changes in the gross margin of our INX and Stratasoft subsidiaries as discussed below, as well as an increase, as a percentage of total revenue of product sales revenue as compared to (i) service revenue and (ii) custom project revenue, each of which generate higher gross margins than product sales.
INX gross profit increased $4,830, or 55.3%, from $8,742 to $13,572. INX’s gross margin decreased from 15.2% to 14.8%. INX’s gross profit on its product sales component increased $3,402 or 45.2%, from $7,521 to $10,923 due to increased product sales revenue attributable to the increased quantities of contracts and the margin contribution of acquisitions.. However, gross margin on its product sales decreased from 14.0% to 13.1%, which was primarily attributable to lower vendor incentives as a percentage of sales, decreasing from 4.2% to 2.9%. INX’s gross profit on its service revenue component increased $1,428 or 117.0% from $1,221 to $2,649 and gross margin on INX service revenue increased from 30.1% to 30.9%. This increase in service gross margin dollars was substantially the result of the increased service revenue, partially due to the margin contribution of acquisitions, and the increased services gross margin was primarily attributable to higher utilization rates for engineering and technical staff.
Stratasoft gross profit decreased by $1,669, or 45.5%, from $3,666 to $1,997. Stratasoft’s gross margin decreased from 53.6% to 47.1%. Stratasoft gross margin percentage declined primarily due to reduced revenue combined with a fixed component of cost of sales in the form of software development programmer costs and installation and support technician costs, which do not decline during periods of reduced revenue. Gross profit dollars declined because of the reduced revenue and the reduced gross margin on revenue.
Valerent gross profit decreased by $32, or 2.1%, from $1,536 to $1,504. Valerent’s gross margin decreased from 31.0% to 29.5%. The decrease in Valerent’s gross margin percentage was due to the increase in proportion of product revenue.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $10,261, or 77.8% from $13,191 to $23,452. As a percentage of total revenue, these expenses increased from 19.2% to 23.2%.
These expenses were primarily increased by the following:
    Selling, general, and administrative expenses of locations acquired in the second quarter of 2005 were $1,226 and primarily consisted of sales and administrative wages, commissions, and related payroll taxes.
 
    Management and administrative compensation expense increased $6,682 exclusive of expenses at acquired locations due to the one-time noncash charge of $5,729 related to option remeasurement associated with the INX minority interest exchange, increased administrative and management salaries and wages of $890 related primarily to hiring additional personnel, acquisition related bonuses of $60, and nonqualified stock option expense of $57.
 
    Sales compensation increased $1,017 exclusive of expenses at acquired locations due to increased commissions generated from the increased gross profit dollars and additional personnel hired to generate continued revenue growth.
 
    General office expenses increased $384 exclusive of expenses at acquired locations due to increased printing, advertising, and office supplies costs directly related to the generally increased size of the organization.
 
    Rent, insurance, other occupancy costs, and telecommunications costs increased $252 exclusive of expenses at acquired locations primarily due to the relocation of our Dallas, Texas office facility and the addition of the San Antonio, Texas office in mid-2004 and INX growth.
 
    Bad debt expense increased $224 primarily due to an increase in the allowance in the Stratasoft segment.
 
    Professional fees increased $166 due to Sarbanes-Oxley consulting services.
 
    Travel increased $112 primarily due to increased INX travel related to acquisitions activity.

We expect our future selling, general and administrative expenses to increase as we continue expenditures for compliance with the provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 as well as our continued ramp up for anticipated revenue growth. However, we do expect to be able to limit the increase of selling, general and administrative expenses such that these operating expenses grow at a lesser rate than expected revenue increases because we expect to be able to leverage certain categories of our operating expenses as we grow in the future.
Operating Profit (Loss). Operating profit decreased $7,132 from a profit of $753 to a loss of $6,379, primarily due to one-time noncash compensation charge of $5,729 related to the exchange of the INX minority interest and operating losses in the Stratasoft and Valerent subsidiaries. INX’s operating profit increased $1,427, or 118.1% from $1,208 to $2,635. Stratasoft’s operating profit decreased $2,280 from a profit of $96 to a loss of $2,184. Valerent’s operating profit decreased $306, from a profit of $138 to a loss of $168. The operating loss for the Corporate Segment, which included the one-time noncash compensation charge of $5,729 related to the exchange of the INX minority interest and $166 for Sarbanes Oxley consulting, increased $5,973, from a loss of $689 to a loss of $6,662.
Interest and Other Income (Expense), Net. Interest and other income (expense), net, changed by $265 from income of $10 to expense of $255 due to the increase in interest expense on increased borrowings under the Textron credit facility.
Minority interest. Expense attributable to minority interest decreased from $56 to $23. The minority interest shares in INX were exchanged for shares of I-Sector Common Stock on March 18, 2005, eliminating the minority interest.
Gain on disposal of discontinued operations, net of tax. Gain on disposal of discontinued operations increased from $1 to $58, primarily due to a $43 recovery of an account previously fully reserved and $54 resulting from the revision of estimated future expenses, reduced by the related tax effect.
Cumulative Effect of Change in Accounting Method. As discussed in detail above, effective January 1, 2005 we began accounting for the percentage of completion of our Stratasoft projects based upon the percentage of labor cost incurred as compared to total estimated labor cost rather than total cost incurred compared to total estimated cost. The change in accounting method was applied by recording the cumulative effect of the change amounting to $566 in the condensed consolidated statement of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2005. Had the change in accounting method not been made, net loss for the nine month period ended September 30, 2005 would have increased by $381.
Net income (loss). Net income decreased $7,869 from a profit of $708 to a loss of $7,161. Income tax benefit for the period was $4, and there is a net operating tax loss carryforward of approximately $2.2 million as of September 30, 2005. Net deferred tax assets were fully offset by a valuation allowance at September 30, 2005.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Sources of Liquidity
Our principal sources of liquidity are cash flow from operations and our credit facility with Textron Financial Corporation (the “Textron Facility”). We use the Textron Facility to finance the majority of our purchases of inventory, and to provide working capital when our cash flow from operations is insufficient. Our working capital was $13,143 and $7,906 at December 31, 2004 and September 30, 2005, respectively.
Accounts and Notes Receivable. The timing of our collection of accounts and notes receivable and payments of our accounts payable is one of the principal influences on our cash flow from operations. We typically sell our products and services on short-term credit terms. We try to minimize our credit risk by performing credit checks, obtaining letters of credit in certain instances, and conducting our own collection efforts. Amounts receivable related to sales to government and educational customers typically take longer to collect than accounts receivables from corporate customers. We have experienced significant delays in collections of amounts due from the Schools and Libraries Division of the Universal Services Administration Company under the E-Rate program, a program that provides funding for network infrastructure for educational organizations, with collections from the E-Rate program having taken between 120 days to as long as approximately seven months over the past year.
The balance of trade accounts receivable, net of allowance for doubtful accounts, was $28,855 and $36,821 at December 31, 2004 and September 30, 2005, respectively. The current portion of notes receivable were $1,231 and $247 and the noncurrent portion of notes receivable were $207 and $56, net of allowances, at December 31, 2004 and September 30, 2005, respectively.

As previously reported, during late 2004 and during mid 2005, we experienced significant payment delays related to receivables owed to the Company related to a project for the Dallas Independent School District (“DISD”) that is partially funded by DISD and partially funded by the Schools and Libraries Division (the “SLD”) of the Universal Services Administration Company, an organization under the Federal Communications Commission that administers the E-Rate program, a Federally funded program that partially funds network and connectivity technology infrastructure for schools. The DISD project is performed by a consortium of vendors, including the Company, and administered by one of the consortium members that has been appointed to act as the lead consortium member. In August 2005, we learned through communication with DISD and other consortium members that SLD had placed on hold payment of all outstanding DISD project receivables pending completion of its inquiry into information that appeared in the press concerning the lead consortium member. The SLD inquiry was completed in late September and payments to the Company and other consortium members resumed. At September 30, 2005, we have approximately $12.4 million in receivables outstanding with DISD under the SLD-funded project and have received $7.9 million in payments after September 30, 2005, substantially all of which was used to reduce the outstanding balance under the Textron Facility.
Inventory. We had inventory of $1,159 and $879 at December 31, 2004 and September 30, 2005, respectively. We try to minimize the amount of inventory on hand to reduce the risk that the inventory will become obsolete or decline in value. We are able to do this by relying on the ready availability of products from our principal suppliers. As noted below, we rely principally on our Textron Facility to finance our inventory purchases.
Contractual Obligations
The following table summarizes certain of our contractual cash obligations and related payments due as of September 30, 2005:
                                 
    Payments Due by Period  
            Less              
            Than     1—3     4—5

Other debt obligations
    132       91       41        
 
                       
Total contractual cash obligations
  $ 2,193     $ 981     $ 1,035     $ 177  
 
                       
We do not have any material contractual purchase obligations. We typically purchase inventory primarily to fulfill in-hand orders from customers and we try to minimize the amount of inventory on hand to reduce risk that the inventory will become obsolete or decline in value. We are able to do this by relying on the ready availability of products from our principal suppliers.
We expect to be able to meet our contractual cash payment obligations by their due dates through cash generated from operations, augmented, if needed, by borrowings under the Textron Facility, and with the proceeds of our recent public offering.
Textron Facility. We use the Textron Facility to finance purchases of Cisco products from Cisco and from certain wholesale distributors. Cisco provides 60-day terms, and other wholesale distributors typically provide 30-day terms. Balances under the Textron Facility that are within those respective 60-day and 30-day periods (the “Free Finance Period”) do not accrue interest and are classified as accounts payable in our balance sheet. We refer to non-interest bearing balances as “inventory floor plan borrowings”.
To the extent that we have credit availability under the Textron Facility, it gives us the ability to extend the payment terms past the Free Finance Period. Amounts extended past the Free Finance Period accrue interest and are classified as notes payable on our balance sheet. These extended payment balances under the Textron Facility accrue interest at the prime rate (5.25% at December 31, 2004, and 6.75% at September 30, 2005) plus 0.5%.
On September 30, 2005 the Company and Textron signed an amendment to its existing $25 million senior credit facility. The First Amendment Agreement (“Amendment”) was effective September 9, 2005, and includes the following terms:
    Extends the term of the $25 million floorplan line of credit facility to September 9, 2007, unless terminated earlier as provided in the Amendment. Inventory and accounts receivable for the Dallas Independent School District (DISD) are excluded from the availability calculation under the facility except as provided under the multiple advance working capital credit facility.
 
    Provides a working capital revolving line of credit under the above floorplan facility with an aggregate outstanding principal sublimit of $10 million.

30


Table of Contents

    Provides a multiple advance working capital credit facility under the floorplan line in the maximum amount of $4 million for a term of 60 days with the outstanding principal balance not to exceed 30% of eligible DISD receivables.
 
    Charges interest payable monthly at the rate of prime plus .5% on revolving credit loans and prime plus 2.5% on multiple advance working capital loans.
 
    Amends certain restrictive covenants.
Total borrowings under the floorplan line of credit facility were $17,973 as of September 30, 2005, of which $8,970 were non-interest bearing inventory floor plan borrowings and reflected in accounts payable in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet at September 30, 2005. Interest bearing borrowings under the working capital revolving line of credit and multiple advance working capital credit facility were $9,003 at September 30, 2005, and reflected in notes payable in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
Advances under the Textron Facility are subject to borrowing base restrictions and are collateralized by substantially all of our assets other than our patent licenses. As of September 30, 2005, there was no unused borrowing base availability under the Textron Facility. “Unused availability” is the amount not borrowed, but eligible to be borrowed based on available collateral. The borrowing base restrictions generally restrict our borrowings under the Textron Facility to 80% of the eligible receivables and 90% of our Floorplanned inventory (as defined in the Facility) which cannot exceed the lesser of 35% of our eligible accounts receivable or $10.0 million.
As defined in the Textron Facility there are restrictive covenants that are measured at each quarter and year end. These covenants require us to:
    maintain Minimum Tangible Capital Funds of $10.5 million, which is defined to be the sum of cash, receivables, inventory and fixed net assets, minus total liabilities, with total liabilities being defined as accounts payable, accrued expenses and short- and long-term notes payable;
 
    maintain a maximum Debt to Tangible Capital Funds ratio of 4.0 to 1;
 
    maintain Minimum Working Capital of not less than $8.0 million;
 
    maintain a Current Ratio at September 30, 2005 of not less than 1.15 to 1.0 and not less than 1.25 to 1.0 thereafter; and
 
    achieve Earnings before Interest Expense, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (EBITDA) exceeding $100,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2005 and exceeding $300,000 quarterly thereafter.
At September 30, 2005 we were in compliance with the above covenants. The decision to sell the Stratasoft and Valerent subsidiaries may adversely impact their operations and result in the future violation of one or more of the above covenants. If we violate any of the loan covenants in the future, we would be required to seek waivers from Textron for those non-compliance events. If Textron refused to provide waivers, the amount due under the Textron Facility could be accelerated and we could be required to seek other sources of financing.
Cash Flows. During the nine months ended September 30, 2005, our cash decreased by $3,682. Operating activities provided cash of $293, investing activities including two acquisitions used $4,621, and financing activities provided $646.
Operating Activities. Operating activities provided $293 in the nine months ended September 30, 2005 as compared to using cash of $8,816 in the comparable 2004 period.
Changes in asset and liability accounts provided $430. The most significant sources of working capital related to:
    Increase in accounts payable of $5,359 and decrease in inventory of $280, which related primarily to increased purchases of Cisco products for sales by INX, was offset by the $7,339 increase in accounts receivable. Although overall receivables increased due to increased sales, the days in sales outstanding decreased by 20 days from 108 days at December 31, 2004 (using the exhaustive method of calculation) to 88 days at September 30, 2005 primarily due to collections of amounts related to an INX E-Rate program funded project relating to a school district.

Table of Contents

    Contracts in progress which, decreased $842 due to a $644 decrease in the cost and estimated earnings in excess of billings and an $198 increase in billings in excess of cost and estimated earnings, which was primarily due to the lower Stratasoft revenues discussed above .
 
    The $1,337 increase in accrued expense is primarily related to accruing for sales commissions, wages and bonuses; third party commissions and professional fees, which increased consistent with the increase in sales.
Investing Activities. Investing activities used $4,621 in the nine months ended September 30, 2005 compared to a use of $912 for the comparable period in 2004. Our 2005 investing activities related to acquisitions, using cash of $4,200, and capital expenditures, which used cash of $421. Capital expenditures in both years were primarily related to purchases of computer equipment and software, and to a lesser degree, leasehold improvements. During the next twelve months, we do not expect to incur significant capital expenditures requiring cash, except for acquisitions, of which we cannot predict the certainty or magnitude.
Financing Activities. Financing activities provided $646 in the nine months ended September 30, 2005 as compared to providing $11,980 in the comparable period in 2004. During the nine months ended September 30, 2004, the company closed a public offering resulting in net proceeds of $7,632.
Related Party Transactions
We lease office space from Allstar Equities, Inc., a Texas corporation (“Equities”), a company wholly owned by James H. Long, our Chief Executive Officer. On December 1, 1999 Equities purchased our corporate office building and executed a direct lease with us with an expiration date of December 31, 2004. In conjunction with Equities obtaining new financing on the building, a new lease was executed with us on February 1, 2002 with an expiration date of January 31, 2007. The current lease has a rental rate of $37 per month.
From time to time we make short-term loans and travel advances to our employees. The balance of approximately $17 and $18 relating to these loans and advances is included in the Company’s balance sheet and reported as part of Accounts Receivable at December 31, 2004 and September 30, 2005, respectively.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
We incur certain market risks related to interest rate variations because we hold floating rate debt. Based upon the average amount of debt outstanding during the three months ended September 30, 2005, a one-percent increase in interest rates paid by us on our floating rate debt would have resulted in an $20 increase in interest for the period.
Our business depends upon our ability to obtain an adequate supply of products and parts at competitive prices and on reasonable terms. Our suppliers are not obligated to have product on hand for timely delivery to us nor can they guarantee product availability in sufficient quantities to meet our demands. INX’s business is Cisco centric. Any material disruption in our supply of products could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Under the supervision and with the participation of certain members of our management, including our Chairman of the Board, Chief Executive Officer and principal financial officer, we completed an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)). Based on that evaluation, we and our management have concluded that, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at September 30, 2005 because of the effect of a material weakness identified and more fully discussed below.
Grant Thornton LLP (“Grant Thornton”), our independent accountants, and management identified and reported to the audit committee of the board of directors an internal control deficiency that Grant Thornton considers to be a material weakness under the standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants and the SEC. A material weakness is a control deficiency, or combination of control deficiencies, that results in a more than remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected. The identified internal control deficiency relates to a material weakness involving the accrual of outside contractor project costs at the end of a period.
We have initiated corrective action to address this internal control deficiency by implementing the following measures:

    Performed a review at September 30, 2005 and will review at the end of each future accounting period all open projects to ensure all significant contractor liabilities are accrued.
 
    Modified our timekeeping system procedures to input time of all individual outside contractors paid based on time.
 
    Modified our purchase order procedures to input outside contractor commitments paid based on fixed rates.
We will consider further actions and continue to evaluate the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and internal controls and procedures on an ongoing basis, taking corrective action as appropriate. Our management does not expect that disclosure controls and procedures or internal controls can prevent all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable and not absolute assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. While our management believes that its disclosure controls and procedures provide reasonable assurance that fraud can be detected and prevented, because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected.
In the first nine months of 2005, there has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to affect, our internal control over financial reporting, except as noted above.
The certifications of I-Sector’s Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer attached as Exhibits 31.1 and 31.2 to this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q include, in paragraph 4 of such certifications, information concerning I-Sector’s disclosure controls and procedures and internal controls over financial reporting. Such certifications should be read in conjunction with the information contained in this Item 4 for a more complete understanding of the matters covered by such certifications.
PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
In August 2002, Inacom Corp. (“Inacom”) filed a lawsuit in the District Court of Douglas County, Nebraska styled Inacom Corp v. I-Sector Corporation, f/k/a Allstar Systems, Inc., claiming that I-Sector owed the sum of approximately $570 to Inacom as a result of Inacom’s termination of a Vendor Purchase Agreement between Inacom and I-Sector. I-Sector believes that the claim is without merit and intends to vigorously contest the demand.
I-Sector is also party to other litigation and claims which management believes are normal in the course of its operations. While the results of such litigation and claims cannot be predicted with certainty, I-Sector believes the final outcome of such matters will not have a materially adverse effect on its results of operations or financial position.
