NET INCOME (LOSS) PER SHARE (EPS) |
|
|
ASC 260-10 (SFAS 128) Earnings Per Share as amended in September 2009, requires the Company
to calculate net income (loss) per share based on basic and diluted net income (loss) per
share, as defined. Basic EPS excludes dilution and is computed by dividing net income (loss)
by the weighted average number of shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS reflects the
potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock
were exercised or converted into common stock. The dilutive effect of outstanding options
issued by the Company are reflected in diluted EPS using the treasury stock method. Under the
treasury stock method, options will only have a dilutive
effect when the average market price of common stock during the period exceeds the exercise
price of the options. |

September 30, 2009 we had not experienced any material losses related to these
indemnification obligations and no material claims with respect thereto were outstanding. We
do not expect significant claims related to these indemnification obligations, and
consequently, we have not established any related reserves. |

Overview
Revenues of $2,511,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2009 decreased 8% from revenues of
$2,724,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2008. For the nine months ended September 30,
2009, revenues of $7,513,000 decreased 5% from revenues of $7,934,000 for the first nine months of
2008. The net loss of $350,000, or $0.04 per share, for the three months ended September 30, 2009,
and $1,072,000, or $0.11 per share, for the nine months ended September 30, 2009, compare with
losses of $36,000, or $0.00 per share, and $490,000, or $0.05 per share, for the same three and
nine month periods of 2008. The third quarter 2009 loss of $350,000 was an improvement from the
loss of $542,000 incurred for the second quarter of the year.
Orders booked for the quarter ended September 30, 2009 of $2,794,000 increased 19% from orders
booked of $2,340,000 in the second quarter of 2009. For the nine months ended September 30, 2009,
orders booked of $8,525,000 increased 9% from orders booked for the first nine months of 2008,
including a 269% increase in orders for Telecom Expense Management (TEM), Business Process
Outsourcing (BPO), and SaaS (Software as a Service) offerings. As a result, the value of embedded
revenues has grown 15% from approximately $6.4 million at the end of 2008 to over $7.4 million at
September 30, 2009. Embedded revenues represent the value of orders received for services to be
performed in future periods, at which time the associated revenue will be recognized in the
Companys Statement of Operations. Embedded revenues consist of TEM, BPO, and SaaS services
provided on a monthly basis pursuant to multi-year contracts, in addition to maintenance, training
and installation services provided in conjunction with the direct sale of software products.
Revenues
Revenues from managed service contracts for TEM, BPO, and SaaS services increased 78% and 35%
respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009 as compared with the same
three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2008. Revenues from the sales of premise based
software products and services, the segment of the market most impacted by current economic
conditions, decreased 22% for the three months ended September 30, 2009 and 13% for the nine months
ended September 30, 2009 from the same three and nine months periods of 2008.
Gross Margin
Gross margin (sales less cost of sales) of $1,790,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2009
decreased 11% from the gross margin of $2,003,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2008.
For the nine months
ended September 30, 2009 gross margin of $5,471,000 decreased 6% from the margin of $5,790,000
earned for the first nine months of 2008. For both nine month periods ended September 30, 2009 and
2008, as a percentage of revenues, gross margins remained stable at 73%.

Operating Expenses
Net engineering and software development expenses of $221,000 for the three months ended September
30, 2009 and $794,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 decreased 43% and 22%,
respectively, from the same three and nine month periods of 2008. The reduction in expense levels
result from a higher percentage of software development costs capitalized in 2009 than occurred in
2008. For the first nine months of 2009 we capitalized $1,040,000 of software developments costs
versus $636,000 of software developments costs for the first nine months of 2008. The chart below
summarizes gross expenses for engineering and software developments costs, costs capitalized, and
the resulting net engineering and software developments costs included in the Statement of
Operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008.

Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses of $1,937,000 for the three months ended
September 30, 2009 increased 15% from the same quarter of 2008. SG&A expenses of $5,759,000 for the
nine months ended September 30, 2009, increased 8% from the same period of 2008. A major factor in
the increased SG&A expenses, for both periods of 2009 as compared with the prior year, was a major
realignment of our direct sales force to better position ourselves in the TEM/BPO/SaaS marketplace.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our total cash position (cash plus short term investments) was $1,057,000 at September 30, 2009,
which compares with $1,378,000 at June 30, 2009 and $1,997,000 at December 31, 2008. In addition to
the cash availability referenced above, the Company maintains a line of credit arrangement with a
local bank for up to $400,000, as well as access to approximately $2.9 million of cash surrender
values associated with Company-owned life insurance contracts available to augment cash flows
should that become necessary. We do not anticipate a requirement to access either the credit line
or cash surrender values during the fourth quarter of 2009.
Accounts receivable at September 30, 2009 were $1,148,000, net of a reserve for bad debts of
$21,000. At December 31, 2008, accounts receivables totaled $1,047,000, net of a reserve for bad
debts of $30,000. The reduction in bad debt reserve, despite the increase in total receivables,
reflects the payment record of our customer base.
13
Prepaid expenses and other current assets of $438,000 at September 30, 2009 increased from $244,000
at December 31, 2008. The increase results primarily from an increase in prepaid commissions paid
our direct sales force on long term managed service contracts, the revenues and commissions costs
of which will be recognized in future periods.
Property and equipment, net of depreciation at September 30, 2009 was $358,000, down 21% from the
December 31, 2008 balance of $456,000. During the first nine months of 2009, we purchased $137,000
of new capital equipment which compares with $151,000 of capital purchases for the first nine
months of 2008. $465,000 of obsolete and outdated assets have been retired in 2009, virtually all
of which had been fully depreciated.
Capitalized development costs at September 30, 2009 of $2,897,000, increased 7% from the December
31, 2008 total of $2,720,000. Software development costs capitalized in 2009 were $403,000 for the
three months ended September 30, 2009 and $1,040,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2009.
Capitalized development costs for the same three and nine months periods of 2008 were $223,000 and
$636,000, respectively. Amortization expenses associated with completed development projects are
charged to cost of sales in the Companys statement of operations. Amortization expenses totaled
$263,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2009 and $863,000 for the nine months ended
September 30, 2009. For 2008, amortization expenses were $302,000 and $852,000 for the same thee
and nine month periods.
Pension assets consist of the cash surrender values on a series of company-owned life insurance
policies. The cash surrender values, which total $2,876,000 at September 30, 2009, along with the
associated death benefit of those policies, are designed fund future pension obligations. The death
benefits attached to those policies totals $10.2 million and are not included on the Companys
balance sheets. As referenced above, the cash surrender values are available to fund current or
future operations, if management and the Board of Directors deems appropriate.
Current liabilities of $5,225,000 at September 30, 2009 increased 3%, or $161,000 from the December
31, 2008 total of $5,064,000, as a result of a $197,000 increase in accounts payable and an $88,000
increase in accrued compensation. The increase in accounts payable includes telecom bills to be
paid in the fourth quarter on behalf of one of our BPO clients. The increase in accrued
compensation is due to the timing of the Companys bi-weekly payroll.
As a result of the operating losses incurred for the first thee quarters of 2009, stockholders
equity at September 30, 2009 declined to a negative $230,000, from a positive $502,000 at December
31, 2008.
Despite the decrease in equity, it is managements opinion that given the Companys total cash
position, projected operating expense levels, and the absence of debt, sufficient resources exist
to fund operations and strategic objectives for the next twelve months and beyond.

|
In June 2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASC 260-10, formerly FASB
Staff Position (FSP) EITF 03-6-1, Determining Whether Instruments Granted in Share-Based
Payment Transactions are Participating Securities. ASC 260-10 clarifies that share-based
payment awards that entitle their holders to receive nonforfeitable dividends or dividend
equivalents before vesting should be considered participating securities. We have granted
and expect to continue to grant restricted stock that contain non-forfeitable rights to
dividends and will be considered participating securities upon adoption of ASC 260-10. As
participating securities, we will be required to include these instruments in the
calculation of our basic earnings per share (EPS), and we will need to calculate basic
EPS using the two-class method. Restricted stock is currently included in our dilutive
EPS calculation using the treasury stock method. The two-class method of computing EPS is
an earnings allocation formula that determines EPS for each class of common stock and
participating security according to dividends declared (or accumulated) and participation
rights in undistributed earnings. ASC 260-10 is effective for financial statements issued
for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and all interim periods within those
fiscal years. As such, the Company adopted these provisions at the beginning of the fiscal

16
Critical Accounting Policies
The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions
that affect amounts reported therein. The most significant of these involving difficult or complex
judgments include:
|
|
|
Revenue recognition |
|
|
|
|
Capitalization of software development costs |
|
|
|
|
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts |
|
|
|
|
Pension liability |
In each situation, management is required to make estimates about the effects of matters or
future events that are inherently uncertain.
The Companys revenue consists of revenues from the licensing of software to resellers and end
user customers; fees for services rendered to include installation, training, implementation, and
customer maintenance contracts; and the outsourcing or hosting of services.
The Company recognizes software license revenue under ASC 985-605, formerly Statement of
Position No 97-2 Software Revenue Recognition as amended by Statement of Position No. 98-9,
Software Revenue Recognition With Respect to Certain Transactions, and under ASC 605-25, formerly
Emerging Issues Task Force 00-21, Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables, and related
interpretations.
Sales of licensed software sold directly to an end user customer are recognized as revenue
upon delivery and installation of the software at the customer site. Sales of licensed software to
a reseller are recognized as revenue when delivery is made to the reseller. Regardless of the form
of sale no revenue is recognized without persuasive evidence of an arrangement existing. Persuasive
evidence is determined to be a signed purchase order received from the customer or an equivalent
form for those customers lacking a formalized purchase order system. In the case of VeraSMART
sales, a software license agreement signed by both parties is often required in addition to a
purchase order or equivalent. Additionally, revenue is only recognized when a selling price is
fixed or determinable and collectability of the receivable is deemed to be probable.
Service revenues such as training, installation and implementation are recognized when the
service is complete and acknowledged by the customer, regardless as to whether the sale is on a
direct basis or through a reseller arrangement.
Fees charged to customers for post-contract Customer Support are recognized ratably over the
term of the contract. Costs related to maintenance obligations are expensed as incurred.
Sales which constitute a multiple-element arrangement are accounted for by determining if the
elements can be accounted for as separate accounting units, and if so, by applying values to those
units for which there is vendor specific objective evidence of their fair value. We use the
residual method to apply any remaining balance to the remaining elements of the arrangement. More
specifically, this methodology applies when there is embedded maintenance (post-contract customer
support) involved in the sale of a software license, or when the sale of a software license is made
in conjunction with installation services. In the latter case, the recognition of the software
license is deferred until installation is completed.
17
The Companys revenues generated through hosting solutions are recognized using the
proportional performance method. Revenues are recognized in the month services are rendered and
earned under service
agreements with clients where service fees are fixed or determinable. Contracts can be
terminated with 90 days written notice. All services provided by us through the date of
cancellation are due and payable under the contract terms.
The Company believes its revenue recognition policies are appropriate, in all circumstances,
and that its policies are reflective of complexities arising from customer arrangements involving
such features as maintenance, warranty agreements, license agreements, and other normal course of
business arrangements.
The Company capitalizes software development costs when technological feasibility has been
established for the software in accordance with ASC 985-20, formerly SFAS No. 86, Accounting for
the Costs of Computer Software to be Sold, Leased, or Otherwise Marketed. Such capitalized costs
are amortized on a product-by-product basis over their economic life or the ratio of current
revenues to current and anticipated revenues from such software, whichever provides the greater
amortization. The Company periodically reviews the carrying value of capitalized software
development costs and impairments are recognized in the results of operations when the expected
future undiscounted operating cash flow derived from the capitalized software is less than its
carrying value. Should the Company inaccurately determine when a product reaches technological
feasibility or the economic life of a product, results could differ materially from those reported.
Veramark uses what it believes are reasonable assumptions and where applicable, established
valuation techniques in making its estimates.
The Company maintains allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the
potential inability of its customers to make required payments. Management specifically analyzes
accounts receivable, historical bad debts, credit concentrations and customer payment terms when
evaluating the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts.
The Company sponsors an unfunded Supplemental Executive Retirement Program (SERP), which is a
nonqualified plan that provides certain key employees a defined pension benefit. In order to
properly record the net present value of future pension obligations a number of assumptions are
required to be made by Companys management. These assumptions include years of service, life
expectancies, and projected future salary increases for each participant. In addition, management
must make assumptions with regard to the proper long-term interest and liability discount rates to
be applied to these future obligations.
Should the Company need to alter any of these assumptions, there is the potential for
significant adjustments to future projected pension liabilities.
18
Risk Factors
The following factors, among others discussed herein and in the Companys filings under the Act,
could cause actual results and future events to differ materially from those set forth or
contemplated in this report: economic, competitive, governmental and technological factors,
increased operating costs, failure to obtain necessary financing, risks related to natural
disasters and financial market fluctuations. Such factors also include:
Intellectual Property Rights
Veramark regards its products as proprietary and attempts to protect them with a combination of
copyright, trademark and trade secret protections, employee and third-party non-disclosure
agreements and other methods
of protection. Despite those precautions, it may be possible for unauthorized third parties to copy
certain portions of Veramarks products, reverse engineer or obtain and use information that
Veramark regards as proprietary. The laws of some foreign countries do not protect Veramarks
proprietary rights to the same extent as the laws of the United States. Any misappropriation of
Veramarks intellectual property could have a material adverse effect on its business and results
of operations. Furthermore, although Veramark take steps to prevent unlawful infringement of
others intellectual property, there can be no assurance that third parties will not assert
infringement claims against Veramark in the future with respect to current or future products. Any
such assertion could require Veramark to enter into royalty arrangements or result in costly
litigation.
Existing Customer Base
We derive an increasingly significant portion of our revenues from multi- year managed service
contracts. As a result, if we lose a major customer, or if a managed service contract is delayed,
reduced, or cancelled, our revenues could be adversely affected. In addition, customers who have
accounted for significant revenues in the past may not generate the same amount of revenues in
future periods.
Product Development
Veramark has made significant investments in research, development and marketing for new products,
services and technologies, including the VeraSMART software offering and its hosted or managed
solutions. Significant revenue from new product and service investments may not be achieved for a
number of years, if at all. Moreover, if such products or services are profitable, operating
margins may not be as high as the margins historically experienced by Veramark. The development of
software products is a complex and time-consuming process. New products and enhancements to
existing products can require long development and testing periods. Significant delays in new
product releases or significant problems in creating new products, particularly any delays in
future releases of the VeraSMART suite of products or services, could adversely affect Veramark
revenues.
Declines in Demand for Software
If overall market demands for software and computer devices generally, as well as call accounting
software or enterprise level products and services specifically, declines, or corporate spending
for such products declines, Veramarks revenue will be adversely affected. Additionally, Veramarks
revenues would be unfavorably impacted if customers reduce their purchases of new software products
or upgrades to existing products.
New Products and Services
Veramark is in the process of transforming its business model from a company selling largely
premise based software products and services, to one offering hosted solutions providing a wide
variety of TEM/BPO processes, such as wireless management, invoice processing and payment, and
expanded reporting capabilities. These services are generally provided under multi-year
arrangements, and revenues are generally recognized over the life of the arrangements.
Consequently, such sales are expected to result in less revenue being recognized at the beginning
of a multi-year arrangement than would be recognized with a one-time sale of software.
19
Competition
Veramark experiences intense competition across all markets for its products and services. Some
competing firms have greater name recognition and more financial, marketing and technological
resources than Veramark. These competitive pressures may result in decreased sales volumes, price
reductions, and/or increased operating costs, such as for marketing and sales incentives, resulting
in lower revenues, gross margins and operating income.
Marketing and Sales
Veramarks marketing and distribution strategy is founded on building mutually beneficial
relationships with companies that have established distribution networks. Some sell privately
labeled, customized products developed and manufactured by Veramark to their specific
specifications, while others resell Veramarks products. Any loss of the continued availability of
those relationships could have a material adverse effect on Veramarks business and results of
operations.
Security and Privacy Breaches in our Systems May Damage Client Relations and Inhibit our Growth
The uninterrupted operation of our hosted solutions and the confidentiality of third party
information that resides on our systems is critical to our business. We have what we believe to be
sufficient security in place to prevent major interruptions in service and to prevent unauthorized
access. Any failure in our security and privacy measures could have a material adverse impact on
our financial position and results of operations.

Item 4 |
|
Controls and Procedures |
Our management evaluated, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief
Financial Officer, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the
period covered by this Form 10-Q. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief
Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules
13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act)),
as of the end of such period, are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by
us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and
reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms.
There have been no significant changes in the Companys internal controls over financial reporting,
that occurred during the period covered by this report, that have materially affected, or are
reasonably likely to materially affect the Companys internal controls over financial reporting.
The Companys disclosure controls and procedures and internal controls over financial
reporting provide reasonable, but not absolute, assurance that all deficiencies in design or
operation of those control systems, or all instances of errors or fraud, will be prevented or
detected. Those control systems are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving the goals
of those systems in light of the Companys resources and nature of the Companys business
operations. The Companys disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial
reporting remain subject to risks of human error and the risk that controls can be circumvented for
wrongful purposes by one or more individuals in management or non-management positions.
This Quarterly Report does not include an attestation report of the Companys registered
public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Managements report was
not subject to attestation by the Companys registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary
rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only
managements report in the Quarterly Report.
