integration. The Company is headquartered in Alexandria, Virginia and has locations to support its
operations located throughout the United States.
The accompanying financial statements present the Companys financial position, results of
operations, and cash flows on a consolidated basis. The unaudited consolidated financial statements
include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. Wholly-owned subsidiaries
include Halifax Engineering, Inc. and Halifax Realty, Inc. All significant intercompany
transactions are eliminated in consolidation.
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the
rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and in accordance with the
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) for interim
financial reporting. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the annual
financial statements have been omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations.
In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect
all necessary adjustments and reclassifications (all of which are of a normal, recurring nature)
that are necessary for fair presentation for the periods presented. The Accounting Policies
followed by the Company with respect to unaudited interim financial statements are consistent with
those stated in the Companys annual report on Form 10-K. The accompanying March 31, 2008
financial statements were derived from the Companys audited financial statements. The results for
the three and nine months ended December 31, 2008, are not necessarily indicative of the results to
be expected for the full fiscal year. These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be
read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto
included in the Companys annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2008 filed with
the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Managements Plans
The Company is subject to all of the risks inherent in a company that operates in the intensely
competitive enterprise maintenance services and solutions industry. These risks include, but are
not limited to, competitive conditions, customer requirements, technological developments, quality,
pricing, responsiveness and the ability to perform within estimated time and expense guidelines.
The Companys operating results may be materially affected by the foregoing factors.
The Company is continuing to focus on its core high availability logistics and maintenance services
business while at the same time evaluating its future strategic direction. Management must also
continue to emphasize operating efficiencies through cost containment strategies, reengineering
efforts and improved service delivery techniques. The Companys cost containment strategies
included reductions in its workforce, consolidating and reducing its leased facilities,
company-wide salary and wage reduction and reductions of other operating expenses in order to align
expenses as a result of losses in revenue. During the three and nine months ended December 31,
2008, the Company benefited from the cost actions undertaken during the last part of fiscal year
2008. The Company has also began marketing its enterprise logistic service offering and began to
migrate away from contracts where there is a high degree of exposure to inventory obsolescence.
The industry in which the Company operates continues to experience unfavorable economic conditions
and competitive challenges. The Company continues to experience significant price competition and
customer demand for higher service attainment levels. In addition, there is significant price
competition in the market for state and local government contracts as a result of budget issues,
political pressure and other factors beyond the Companys control.

Fair Value Measurements
On April 1 2008, the Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Statement of
Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS) No. 157, Fair Value Measurements, which defines fair
value, establishes guidelines for measuring fair value and expands disclosures regarding fair value
measurements. SFAS No. 157 does not require any new fair value measurements, but rather eliminates
inconsistencies in guidance found in various other accounting pronouncements. The adoption of SFAS
No. 157 did not have a material effect on the Companys financial condition or operating results.
On April 1, 2008, the Company also adopted SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial
Assets and Financial Liabilitiesincluding an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115. SFAS No. 159
allows companies to choose to measure eligible financial instruments and certain other items at
fair value that are not required to be measured at fair value. SFAS No. 159 requires that
unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected be reported
in earnings at each reporting date. The Company adopted SFAS No. 159 but has not elected the fair
value option for any eligible financial instruments as of December 31, 2008.

Note 3 Inventory
Inventory consists principally of spare parts, computers and computer peripherals, hardware and
software. Inventory is recorded net of an allowance for obsolescence of $957,000 at December 31,
2008 and $1.2 million at March 31, 2008.
Note 4 Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
Under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible
Assets (SFAS 142), goodwill is tested for impairment annually, or more frequently, if events or
changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset might be impaired. The
goodwill impairment test is a two-step process which requires the Company to make judgmental
assumptions regarding fair value. Testing is required between annual tests if events occur or
circumstances change that would, more likely than not, reduce the fair value of the reporting unit
below its carrying value. Such an event may occur if, for an extended period of time, the market
value of the Companys common stock were less than the carrying value of the Company.
Management also reviews the Companys financial position quarterly for other triggering events as
described in SFAS No. 142. Should actual results not meet expectations or assumptions change in
future years, the impairment assessment could result in a lower fair value estimate which could
result in an impairment charge that may materially affect the carrying value of the Companys
assets and results from operations.
Impairment is assessed at the reporting unit level by applying a fair value-based test. A
reporting unit is defined as the same as or one level below the operating segment level as
described in SFAS No. 131, Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information.
The Company has one reporting unit, in the test and measurement business, because none of the
components of the Company constitute a business for which discrete financial information is
available and for which Company management regularly reviews the results of operations.
5
The first step is to identify if an impairment of goodwill has occurred by comparing the fair value
of the reporting unit with its carrying amount, including goodwill. If the fair value of the
reporting unit exceeds its carrying amount, goodwill of the reporting unit is not considered
impaired. If the carrying amount of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value, the second step of
the goodwill test is performed to measure the amount of the impairment loss, if any. In this second
step, the implied fair value (as defined in SFAS 142) of the reporting units goodwill is
compared with the carrying amount of the goodwill. If the carrying amount of the reporting units
goodwill exceeds the implied fair value of that goodwill, an impairment loss is recognized in an
amount equal to that excess, not to exceed the carrying amount of the goodwill.
The Company completed the annual impairment test required under SFAS 142 as of December 31, 2008
and determined that the fair value of the reporting unit exceed its carrying amount, including
goodwill. As the Company consists of only one reporting unit, and is publicly traded, management
estimates of the fair value was prepared by weighting three different valuation methods: the
discounted cash flow method, the mergers and acquisition method and an indication to value based on
the quoted market price of the Companys stock. The Company heavily weighted the discounted cash
flow method and the mergers and acquisition method in determining the fair value of the reporting
unit. Due to the lack of an active trading market for the Companys stock, the Companys quoted
market price was not considered as strong an indication of value of the reporting unit.
If the Companys revenues and cost forecasts are not achieved, the Company fails to have continued
profitability and market acceptance, or the market conditions in the stock market cause the
valuation to decline, the Company may incur charges for impairment of goodwill. A significant
impairment could result in additional charges and have a material adverse impact on the
consolidated financial condition and operating results.
Note 5 Accounts Payable
Accounts payable represents amounts owed to third parties at the end of the period. The Company
included drafts outstanding in accounts payable of approximately $515,000 and $659,000 at December
31, 2008 and March 31, 2008, respectively.
Note 6 Tax Matters
Deferred tax assets and liabilities on the balance sheets reflect the net tax effect of temporary
differences between carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial statement purposes and
the amounts used for income tax purposes. The deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified
on the balance sheets as current or non-current based on the classification of the related assets
and liabilities.
Management regularly evaluates the realizability of its deferred tax assets given the nature of its
operations and the tax jurisdictions in which it operates. The Company adjusts its valuation
allowance from time to time based on such evaluations. Based upon the Companys historical taxable
income, when adjusted for non-recurring items, net
operating loss carryback potential and estimates of future profitability, management has concluded
that, in its judgment, the deferred tax asset should remain fully reserved at December 31, 2008.
The Company adopted FASB Interpretation No. 48 (FIN 48), "Accounting for Uncertainty in Income
Taxes, as of April 1, 2007. This standard modifies the previous guidance provided by FASB
Statement No. 5 (FAS 5), "Accounting for Contingencies and FASB No. 109 (FAS 109), "Accounting
for Income Taxes for uncertainties related to the Companys income tax liabilities. The Company
has analyzed its income tax posture using the criteria required by FIN 48 and concluded that there
is a $20,000 cumulative effect inclusive of penalty and interest allocable to equity or
derecognition of deferred tax assets as a result of adopting this standard. The adjustment was due
to potential exposure arising from increases in state income taxes in higher tax rate states from
lower tax rate states as a result of differing methodologies that may be applied for apportionment.
There was no increase recorded through December 31, 2008 related to material changes to the
measurement of unrecognized tax benefits in various taxing jurisdictions. The Company is
maintaining its historical method of not
accruing interest (net of related tax benefits) and penalties associated with unrecognized income
tax benefits as a component of income tax expense. Interest expense and penalty expense related to
income taxes, if any, are included in interest expense and general and administrative expenses,
respectively, in the consolidated statements of operations. For the three and nine months ended
December 31, 2008, the Company has not recorded any material interest or penalty expense related to
income taxes. The total amount of unrecognized tax benefits as of
December 31, 2008, if recognized, would have a $20,000 effect on income tax expense and would
impact the effective tax rate.
6
The tax return years from 1999 forward in the Companys major tax jurisdictions are not settled as
of December 31, 2008; no changes in settled tax years have occurred through December 31, 2008. Due
to the existence of tax attribute carryforwards (which are currently offset by a full valuation
allowance), the Company treats certain post-1999 tax positions as unsettled due to the taxing
authorities ability to modify these attributes.
The Company estimates that it is reasonably possible that no reduction in unrecognized tax benefits
may occur in the next twelve months due primarily to the expiration of the statute of limitations
in various state and local jurisdictions. The Company does not currently estimate any additional
material reasonably possible uncertain tax positions occurring within the next twelve-month time
frame.
Note 7 Debt Obligations
On July 1, 2008, the Company entered into a Loan and Security Agreement, referred to as the Loan
Agreement, with Textron Financial Corporation. The Loan Agreement replaced the Fourth Amended and
Restated Loan and Security Agreement dated as of June 29, 2007 (as amended by the First Amendment
and Waiver dated November 13, 2007, the Second Amendment and Waiver dated January 31, 2008 and the
Third Amendment and Waiver dated April 30, 2008) with Provident Bank, which terminated on June 30,
2008, referred to as the Old Credit Facility. Generally, under the revolving credit facility of
the Loan Agreement, the Company may borrow an amount equal to the lesser of (a) $4,000,000 or (b)
the sum of (i) up to the eligible accounts advance rate of the aggregate amount of eligible
accounts and (ii) up to the eligible pre-billed accounts rate of the aggregate amount of eligible
pre-billed accounts in an amount not to exceed the eligible pre-billed accounts sublimit. As of
December 31, 2008 the Company had approximately $2.0 million available under its credit facility.
For more information on the Companys Loan Agreement see, Managements Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations Liquidity and Capital Resources.
Subordinated Debt Affiliates
The Arch C. Scurlock Childrens Trust (the Childrens Trust) and Nancy M. Scurlock each own
392,211 shares of the Companys common stock or 25% in the aggregate of the Companys outstanding
common stock. The Arch C. Scurlock Childrens Trust and Nancy M. Scurlock are affiliates of the
Company (Affiliates). Both are greater than 10% shareholders of the Companys outstanding common
stock. Arch C. Scurlock, Jr., a beneficiary and trustee of the Childrens Trust, and John H.
Grover, a trustee of the Childrens Trust, are the Companys directors. The holders of the 8%
promissory notes are the Childrens Trust and Nancy M. Scurlock. The Companys 8% promissory notes
are subordinated to the Loan Agreement described above.
The Companys 8% promissory notes maturity date was extended to July 1, 2009. As of December 31,
2008, the aggregate principal balance of the 8% promissory notes was $1.0 million.
The Companys Loan Agreement requires the lenders approval for the payment of dividends or
distributions as well as the payment of principal or interest on the Companys outstanding
subordinated debt, which is held by the Affiliates. Interest expense on the subordinated debt
owned by the Affiliates is accrued on a current basis.
The balance of accrued but unpaid interest due on the 8% promissory notes to the Affiliates was
approximately $282,000 at December 31, 2008.
Note 8 Stock Based Compensation and Earnings per Share
During the quarter ended December 31, 2008, there were no grants of stock options to purchase
shares of common stock under the Companys 2005 Stock Option and Incentive Plan. There were no

The intrinsic value of stock options outstanding at December 31, 2008 was $0.
As of December 31, 2008, there was $52,500 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to
nonvested share-based compensation arrangements. This cost is expected to be fully amortized in
five years.
For the nine months ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, the Company recorded share based compensation
expense of approximately $21,000 and $19,000, respectively.
Earnings (loss) per common share- The computation of basic earnings (loss) per share is
based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per
share is based on the weighted average number of shares including adjustments to both net income
and shares outstanding when dilutive, including potential common shares from options and warrants
to purchase common stock using the treasury stock method.

Note 9 Recent accounting pronouncements
During the first quarter of fiscal 2009, the Company adopted SFAS No. 157, Fair Value
Measurements, which defines fair value, provides a framework for measuring fair value, and expands
the disclosures required for fair value measurements. In February 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff
Position (FSP) No. FAS 157-2, Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157. FSP 157-2 delays the
effective date of SFAS No. 157 to fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008 for all
non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities, except for items that are recognized or
disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis (at least annually) and
will be adopted by the Company beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2010. Although the Company
will continue to evaluate the application of FSP 157-2, management does not currently believe
adoption will have a material impact on the Companys financial condition or operating results.
In December 2007, FASB issued SFAS No. 141 (revised 2007), Business Combinations, which
establishes principles and requirements for how an acquirer recognizes and measures in its
financial statements the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any
noncontrolling interest in the acquiree in a business combination. SFAS No. 141R also establishes
principles around how goodwill acquired in a business combination or a gain from a bargain purchase
should be recognized and measured, as well as provides guidelines on the disclosure requirements on
the nature and financial impact of the business combination. SFAS No. 141R is effective for fiscal
years beginning on or after December 15, 2008 and will be adopted by the Company beginning in the
first quarter of fiscal 2010. Management does not currently believe adoption will have a material
impact on the Companys financial condition or operating results.
Note 10 Commitments and Contingencies
There are no material pending legal proceedings to which the Company is a party. The Company is
engaged in ordinary routine litigation incidental to the Companys business to which the Company is
a party. While we cannot predict the ultimate outcome of these various legal proceedings, it is
managements opinion that the resolution of these matters should not have a material effect on our
financial position or results of operations.

On May 15, 2008, the NYSE Alternext (Alternext), formerly the American Stock Exchange granted us
an extension until September 14, 2009 to regain compliance with the continued listing standards. As
previously disclosed we had received notice from the Alternext staff indicating that the Company
was below certain of the Exchanges continuing listing standards (losses in three out of four of
its most recent fiscal years with shareholders equity below $4 Million) of the Alternext Company
Guide. We were afforded the opportunity to submit a plan of compliance to the Exchange and on April
14, 2008, presented its plan to Alternext. On May 15, 2008, Alternext notified the Company that it
had accepted the Companys plan of compliance and granted the Company an extension until September
14, 2009 to regain compliance with the continued listing standards. We will be subject to periodic
review by the Exchange Staff during the extension period. Failure to make progress consistent with
the plan or failure to regain compliance with the continued listing standards by the end of the
extension period could result in us being delisted from the NYSE Alternext.
During the three months ended December 31, 2008, we retained an advisor to assist us in our plan to
regain compliance with the continued listing standards of the American Stock exchange. We are
committed to pay $100,000 in fees for advisory services. As of December 31, 2008 we paid $80,000 of
these advisory fees.
During the three months ended December 31, 2008, we entered into non-cancelable leases with
unrelated third parties for software and related maintenance, and hardware. The total fair market
value of this software was approximately $87,000 with a lease term of four years. The total fair
market value of the hardware was approximately $75,000 with a lease term of three years. These
leases were classified as capital lease obligations.

Item 2. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Forward-Looking Statements
Certain statements in this document constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of
the Federal Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. While forward-looking statements
sometimes are presented with numerical specificity, they are based on various assumptions made by
management regarding future circumstances over many of which Halifax Corporation of Virginia
(Halifax, we, our or us) have little or no control. Forward-looking statements may be
identified by words including anticipate, believe, estimate, expect and similar
expressions. We caution readers that forward-looking statements, including without limitation,
those relating to future business prospects, revenues, working capital, liquidity, and income, are
subject to certain risks and uncertainties that would cause actual results to differ materially
from those indicated in the forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause actual results to
differ from forward-looking statements include the concentration of our revenues, risks involved in
contracting with our customers, including the difficulty to accurately estimate costs when bidding
on a contract and the occurrence of start-up costs prior to receiving revenues and contracts with
fixed priced provisions, potential conflicts of interest, difficulties we may have in attracting
and retaining management, professional and administrative staff, fluctuation in quarterly results,
our ability to generate new business, our ability to maintain an effective system of internal
controls, risks related to acquisitions and our acquisition strategy, favorable banking
relationships, the availability of capital to finance operations, ability to obtain a new credit
facility on terms favorable to us, and ability to make payments on outstanding indebtedness,
weakened economic conditions, reduced end-user purchases relative to expectations, pricing
pressures, excess and obsolete inventory, acts of terrorism, energy prices, risks related to
competition and our ability to continue to perform efficiently on contracts, and other risks and
factors identified from time to time in the reports we file with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (SEC). Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should
underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those anticipated,
estimated or projected.
Forward-looking statements are intended to apply only at the time they are made. Moreover, whether
or not stated in connection with a forward-looking statement, we undertake no obligation to correct
or update a forward-looking statement should we later become aware that it is not likely to be
achieved. If we were to update or correct a forward-looking statement, investors and others should
not conclude that we will make additional updates or corrections thereafter.
Overview
Halifax delivers enterprise logistics and supply chain solutions from front-office customer
interaction to back-office reverse logistics. We deliver comprehensive, fully integrated services
including end-to-end customer support and fulfillment, critical inventory optimization and
management, web-based customized reporting, onsite repair services, as well as depot repair and
warranty management. We also provide nationwide high availability, multi-vendor, enterprise
maintenance service provider for enterprises, including businesses, global service providers,
governmental agencies and other organizations. We have undertaken significant changes to our
business in recent years.
We offer a growing list of services to businesses, global service providers, governmental agencies,
and other organizations. Our services are customized to meet each customers needs providing
7x24x365 service, personnel with required security clearances for certain governmental programs,
project management services, depot repair and roll out services. We believe the flexible services
we offer to our customers enable us to tailor a solution to obtain maximum efficiencies within
their budgeting constraints.
When we are awarded a contract to provide services, we may incur expenses before we receive any
contract payments. This may result in a cash short fall that may impact our working capital and
financing. This may also cause fluctuations in operating results as start-up costs are expensed as
incurred.
Our goal is to maintain profitable operations, expand our customer base of clients through our
existing global service provider partners, seek new global service provider partners and enhance
the technology we utilize to deliver cost-effective services to our growing customer base. We must
also effectively manage expenses in relation to revenues by directing new business development
towards markets that complement or improve our existing service lines. We must continue to
emphasize operating efficiencies through cost containment strategies, re-engineering efforts and
improved service delivery techniques, particularly within costs of services, selling, marketing and
general and administrative expenses.
11
Managements Plans
We are continuing to focus on our core high availability logistics and maintenance services
business while at the same time evaluating our future strategic direction. Management must also
continue to emphasize operating efficiencies through cost containment strategies, reengineering
efforts and improved service delivery techniques. Our cost containment strategies included
reductions in force, consolidating and reducing our leased facilities, company-wide salary and wage
reduction and reductions of other operating expenses in order to align expenses as a result of
losses in revenue. During the three and months nine ended December 31, 2008, we benefited from the
cost actions undertaken during the last part of fiscal year 2008. We also began marketing our
enterprise logistic service offering and began to migrate away from contracts where there is a high
degree of exposure to inventory obsolescence.
The industry in which we operate continues to experience unfavorable economic conditions and
competitive challenges. We continue to experience significant price competition and customer
demand for higher service attainment levels. In addition, there is significant price competition
in the market for state and local government contracts as a result of budget issues, political
pressure and other factors beyond our control.

Results of Operations
The following discussion and analysis provides information management believes is relevant to an
assessment and understanding of our consolidated results of operations for the three and nine
months ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively, and should be read in conjunction with the
unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto.

Revenues
Revenues are generated from the sale of enterprise logistic services, high availability enterprise
maintenance services and technology deployment (consisting of professional services, seat
management and deployment services, and product sales). Services revenues include monthly
recurring fixed unit-price contracts as well as time-and-material contracts. Amounts billed in
advance of the services period are recorded as unearned revenues and recognized when earned. The
revenues and related expenses associated with product held for resale are recognized when the
products are delivered and accepted by the customer.

Revenues from services for the three months ended December 31, 2008 decreased 20%, or $2.0
million, to $7.9 million from $9.9 million. For the nine months ended December 31, 2008 revenues
from services decreased $7.9 million, or 24% from $33.0 million to $25.1 million. The decrease
in services revenues was attributable to the termination of certain large nation-wide enterprise
maintenance contracts, including the loss of a large aeronautic manufacturing customer, partially
offset by new higher margin business.
For the three months ended December 31, 2008, product held for resale decreased $389,000, or 66%,
from $587,000 to $198,000. For the nine months ended December 31, 2008 product held for resale
decreased 52% or $1,869,000 to $893,000. The decrease was attributable to several large one-time
orders last year which did not reoccur during the three and nine months ended December 31, 2008.
We continue to de-emphasize product sales and intend to focus on our recurring services revenue
model. As a result, we do not expect to see any material increases in product sales in future
periods.
Revenues for the three months ended December 31, 2008 decreased 23%, or $2.4 million, to $8.1
million from $10.5 million. Revenues for the nine months ended December 31, 2008 decreased $8.8
million or 25% from $34.8 million compared to $26.0 for 2008. The decrease in revenues was the
result of the termination of several contracts and the de-emphasis on product sales, partially
offset by new higher margin business.
Operating costs and expenses
Included within operating costs and expenses are direct costs, including fringe benefits, product
and part costs, and other costs.
A large part of our service costs are support costs and expenses that include direct labor and
infrastructure costs to support our service offerings. We continue to aggressively pursue cost
containment strategies and augment our service delivery process with automation tools.
On long-term fixed unit-price contracts, part costs vary depending upon the call volume received
from customers during the period. Many of these costs are volume driven and as volumes increase,
these costs as a percentage of revenues increase, negatively impacting profit margins.
The variable components of costs associated with fixed price contracts are part costs, overtime,
subcontracted labor, mileage reimbursed, and freight. Parts costs are highly variable and
dependent on several factors, based on the types of equipment serviced, equipment age and usage,
and environment. On long-term fixed unit-price contracts, parts and peripherals are consumed on
service calls.
For installation services and seat management services, product may consist of hardware, software,
cabling and other materials that are components of the service performed. Product held for resale
consists of hardware and software.

Total operating costs and expenses for the three months ended December 31, 2008 decreased $3.3
million, to $6.8 million, or 39%, from $10.1 million for the same period in 2007. Total operating
costs and expenses for the nine months ended December 31, 2008 decreased $9.7 million, or 31% from
$31.5 million to $21.8 million. The reduction in costs was related to the corresponding reduction
in revenue, as well as cost containment efforts, and a shift away from contracts with a high degree
of inventory risk. In addition, due to several contract losses last year, we incurred a $1.0
million charge for obsolete inventory for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2007.
We continue to expand the use of automation tools introduced earlier in the year, which we believe,
in conjunction with our on-going cost containment efforts, will reduce our cost to deliver services
to our customers. We believe these tools will enable us to enter new markets which will positively
affect our gross margins going forward.
Costs for product held for resale have decreased $333,000, from $515,000 for the three months ended
December 31, 2007 to $182,000. For the nine months ended December 31, 2008 product held for resale
decreased 52%, or $885,000 to $814,000. The decrease in costs for products held for resale was
commensurate with the reductions in revenue.
Gross Margin
For the three months ended December 31, 2008, our gross margins increased 332%, or $995,000, from
$299,000 for the period ended December 31, 2008 to $1.3 million. For the nine months ended
December 31, 2008 gross margin increased approximately $900,000 or 26% from $3.3 million to $4.2
million. As a percentage of revenue, gross margins improve to 16% for the three and nine months
ended December 31, 2008 compared to 3% and 10% for the respective periods last year. As discussed
above the improvement in gross margins was attributable to a shift in our business model away from
high concentrations in part costs and its associated inventory obsolescence risk, the introduction
of our enterprise solution offering, cost containment strategies, and a onetime charge to increase
the inventory obsolescence during last fiscal that did not reoccur this year.
Selling and Marketing Expense
Selling and marketing expense consists primarily of salaries, commissions, travel costs and related
expenses.
Selling and marketing expense was $183,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2008 compared to
$211,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2007, a decrease of $28,000, or 13%. For the nine
months ended December 31, 2008 selling and marketing decreased $94,000 from $681,000 to $587,000, a
decrease of 14%. The decrease in selling and marketing expense was the result of reduced personnel
costs and lower commission expense.
General and Administrative Expense
Our general and administrative expenses consist primarily of non-allocated overhead costs. These
costs include executive salaries, accounting, contract administration, professional services such
as legal and audit, business insurance, occupancy and other costs.
For the three months ended December 31, 2008, general and administrative expenses decreased
$110,000 to $793,000 compared to $903,000, a decrease of 12% for the same period last year. For
the nine months ended December 31, 2008, general and administrative expenses decreased
approximately $100,000 to $2.6 million compared to $2.7 million for the nine months ended December
31, 2007. For the three months and nine months ended December 31, 2008, the decrease in general
and administrative expense when compared to last year was attributable to decreases in professional
fees related to compliance with Sarbanes-Oxley and SEC reporting last year and reductions in
occupancy costs offset by increased bank fees associated with obtaining new financing and higher
15
depreciation expense related to the automation tools discussed above when compared to the same
period last year. Various factors such as changes in the markets due to economic conditions,
employee costs and benefits, and costs associated with complying with existing Securities and
Exchange Commission regulations related to SOX and American Stock Exchange requirements may
increase general and administrative expenses and have a negative impact on our earnings in future
periods.
We account for stock-based compensation in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards 123(R) (SFAS 123(R)), Share-Based Payments. Under the fair value recognition provisions
of this statement, share-based
compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the value of the award and recognized as
expense over the
vesting period. Determining the fair value of the share-based awards at the grant date requires
judgment, including estimated volatility, dividend yield, expected term and estimated forfeitures
of the options granted and are included
in general and administrative expense. For each of the three months ended December 31, 2008 and
2007, we reported compensation expense of approximately $8,000 and $7,500 and $21,000 and $19,000
of expense for the nine months ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively.
Litigation Expense
In order to avoid the ongoing cost of litigation, on February 4, 2008, we settled the outstanding
lawsuit with Indus. As a result of recognizing the gain on the sale of our Secure Network Services
division during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2007, we incurred a charge for $410,000, resulting
in a charge to operations during the three and nine months ended December 31, 2007.
Transaction costs
In early 2007, we indentified a potential acquisition opportunity and coupled with an equity
investment which would have increased our size to better enable us to compete in the enterprise
maintenance market. Due to changes in market and valuation issues, we determined not to pursue
this target in December 2007. As a result, we recorded a charge to operations of $458,000 for
transaction related costs.
Interest Expense
Interest expense for the three months ended December 31, 2008 was $80,000 compared to $115,000 for
the same period in 2007. Interest for the nine months ended December 31, 2008 decreased $278,000
from $534,000 to $256,000 compared to the nine months ended December 31, 2007. The primary reason
for the decrease in interest expense during the three and nine months ended December 31, 2008 was
the result of decreases in the amount of borrowings during the current period when compared to the
same periods last year.
Income Tax Expense
For the three months ended December 31, 2008, we recorded income tax expense of $7,000 compared to
$5,000 for the same period in 2007. For the nine months ended December 31, 2008, $66,000 was
recorded compared to $30,000 the nine months ended December 31, 2007. Our income tax expense
consists primarily of state taxes. The Company has a net operating loss carry forward of
approximately $5.6 million which expires from 2019 through 2027.
Net income (loss)
For the three months ended December 31, 2008, the net income was $232,000 compared to a net loss of
$1.8million for the comparable period in 2007. For the nine months ended December 31, 2008, net
income was $662,000 compared to a net loss of 1.5 million for the nine month period ended December
31, 2007, an increase of $2.1million. As discussed above, the improvement in our operating results,
were the result of reduced operating costs related to cost containment strategies affording us
higher margins, and non- recurring charges last year for inventory obsolescence, transaction costs
and litigation.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of December 31, 2008, we had approximately $846,000 of cash on hand. Sources of our cash for
the three and nine months ended December 31, 2008 have been from operations and our revolving
credit facility.
We anticipate that our primary sources of liquidity will be cash generated from operating income
and cash available under our new loan agreement with Textron Financial Corporation (see below).
16
Cash generated from operations may be affected by a number of factors. See Item 1A. and Risk
Factors in our Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2008.
On July 1, 2008, we entered into a new Loan Agreement with Textron Financial Corporation. The Loan
Agreement replaced the Old Credit Facility which terminated on June 30, 2008.
The Loan Agreement has a term of three years (this three year term is referred to as the initial
term) and will automatically renew after the completion of the initial term for additional one year
terms unless terminated by the lender or us. We may terminate the Loan Agreement by giving written
notice of termination to the Lender at least 90 days prior to the end of the relevant term. The
Lender may terminate the Loan Agreement at the expiration of the initial term or any renewal term
by giving written notice of termination at least 60 days prior to the effective date of the
termination and at any time during the existence of an event of default. We may terminate the Loan
Agreement early upon payment in full of the principal amount outstanding and any other obligations
we owe to the Lender provided that we pay an early termination fee of 2% of the credit limit if we
terminate the Loan Agreement within the first year of the Loan Agreement (if termination is caused by a change in control, the percentage will be reduced to 1%) and such
termination fee is reduced to 1% of the credit limit if terminated after the first year of the
Loan Agreement. The lender is also entitled to the early termination fee upon an occurrence of an
event of default relating to our becoming insolvent or bankrupt, even if the lender does not
exercise its right of termination.
Under the revolving credit facility of the Loan Agreement, we may borrow an amount equal to the
lesser of (a) $4,000,000 or (b) the sum of (i) up to the eligible accounts advance rate of the
aggregate amount of eligible accounts and (ii) up to the eligible pre-billed accounts rate of the
aggregate amount of eligible pre-billed accounts in an amount not to exceed the eligible pre-billed
accounts sublimit. The lender may establish reserves against the amount we may borrow as it
determines in its sole discretion are necessary to reflect events, conditions, contingencies or
risks which may affect the collateral securing the revolving credit facility or our financial
condition. The lender may also reduce the eligible accounts advance rate to a lesser amount the
lender determine in its sole credit discretion if our borrowers dilution at any time exceeds the
maximum dilution percentage. The eligible accounts advance rate, eligible pre-billed accounts,
eligible pre-billed accounts sublimit, eligible accounts, collateral, dilution and maximum dilution
are defined in the Loan Agreement. Advances under the Loan Agreement are collateralized by a first
priority security interest on all of our personal property as set forth in the Loan Agreement.
Each of Halifax Engineering, Inc., Halifax Realty, Inc. and Halifax Alphanational Acquisition, Inc.
are guarantors under the Loan Agreement. Additionally, Charles McNew, the Companys President and
Chief Executive Officer and Joseph Sciacca, the Companys Vice President, Finance and Chief
Financial Officer, have limited personal guarantees under the Loan Agreement. As of December 31,
2008, our outstanding balance under the loan agreement was $1.9 million and we had availability
approximately $2.0million.
Interest accrues on the outstanding balance at a variable rate, adjusted daily, equal to prime plus
2.75%. The prime rate generally means the greater of (a) 5% or (b) the prime commercial rate of
interest per annum as announced from time to time on-line by the Wall Street Journal. All interest
accrued on the outstanding principal balance will be calculated on the basis of a year of 360 days
and the actual number of days elapsed in each month. Upon an event of default, the interest rate
on the unpaid balance will immediately be increased by 3%. We must pay accrued interest monthly,
in arrears. Accrued interest and fees will be added to the unpaid principal amount on the day such
amounts are due, unless the lender elects to invoice us for such amounts. At December 31, 2008,
the interest rate was 7.75%.
We are required to pay to the lender a monthly servicing fee of $2,500. We are also required to
pay a credit facility fee in the amount of 1.0% of the credit limit, which was due on the effective
date of the Loan Agreement and 0.5% on each anniversary of the effective date of the Loan
Agreement. We will also be required to pay a field examination fee for each fee examination
performed by the lender.
We must pay to the lender all cash receipts received by us. Following credit for collected funds,
the lender has 3 business days as float days for which it may not apply such funds against the
principal outstanding. The lender is entitled to charge us for the float days at the interest rate
on all collections received. We must maintain a lock-box for collection of accounts at a bank
designated by the lender. The lender may charge our accounts or advance funds under the revolving
credit facility to make any payments of principal, interest, fees, costs or expenses required to be
made by us under the Loan Agreement.
Events of default, include, but are not limited to: (i) our failure to make a payment on any
obligation of borrowed money or other indebtedness or observe a convent which results in the
payment of such obligation to be due before its stated maturity, (ii) the lender determining that
an adverse change has occurred in our financial condition or business prospects
17
or the prospect for payment or performance of any covenant, agreement or obligation under the Loan
Agreement is impaired, (iii) bankruptcy, reorganization or insolvency proceedings are instituted by
or against us, (iv) a settlement,
judgment or order for the payment of money by us in excess of $100,000, (v) any loss, theft, damage
or destruction of any item or items of collateral or our other property which materially and
adversely affects the property, business, operations, prospects, or condition of us, (vi) an over
advance arises which was not approved by lender, and (vii) we move any collateral to, or stores or
maintains any collateral at, any location other than as stated in the Loan Agreement.
The Loan Agreement provides that upon the occurrence of an event of default, the lender may,
without notice, (i) discontinue making any further advances under the revolving credit facility,
(ii) terminate the Loan Agreement, (iii)declare all our obligations under the Loan Agreement,
including principal amount outstanding and accrued interest, to be immediately due and payable,
(iv) take possession of all or any portion of the collateral, (v) use, without charge, any of our
patents, copyrights, trade names, trade secrets, trademarks, advertising materials or any license
therefore or any property of a similar nature, in advertising for sale and selling any of the
collateral, (vi) renew, modify or extend any
account, grant waivers or indulgences with respect to any account, accept partial payments on any
account, release, surrender or substitute any security for payment of any account or compromise
with, or release, any person liable on any account in such a manner as lender may, in its sole
discretion deem advisable, all without affecting or diminishing our obligations; and (vii) obtain
the appointment of a receiver, trustee, or similar official over us to effect all of the
transactions contemplated by the Loan Agreement or as is otherwise necessary to perform the Loan
Agreement. Additionally, the Loan Agreement provides that upon the occurrence of an event of
default, the lender may, with notice, sell or otherwise dispose of all or any portion of the
collateral at public or private sale for cash or credit.
The Loan Agreement contains representations, warranties and covenants that are customary in
connection with a transaction of this type. The Loan Agreement contains certain covenants
including, but not limited to: (i) notifying the lender of any amounts due and owing in excess of
$50,000 that are in dispute by any account debtor on an eligible account or eligible pre-billed
account, (ii) the immediate payment of any excess amount above the credit limit plus accrued
interest and other charges owed with respect to such excess amount, (iii) in the event accounts
arise out of government contracts, we will assign to the lender all amounts due under government
contracts, (iv) we may not make a change in management, enter into any merger or consolidation, or
liquidate, wind up or dissolve , or convey, lease, sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any
substantial portion of our business or property or acquire all or substantially all of the assets
or business of any other company, person or entity, (v) without lenders prior written consent, we
may not encumber the collateral in favor of any person other than lender, other than (a) the
permitted prior encumbrances on equipment; or (b) liens permitted under the terms of any
intercreditor agreements, (vi) without lenders prior written consent, we may not sell, consign,
lease, license or remove from our business locations any of our assets except that, so long as no
event of default has occurred, we may sell inventory in the ordinary course of our business (any
sale or exchange of inventory in satisfaction of our indebtedness will not be a sale of inventory
in the ordinary course of business) and may sell or dispose of obsolete assets which we have
determined, in good faith, not to be useful in the conduct of our business and which, in any fiscal
year, do not have an aggregate fair market value in excess of the $100,000, (vii) we may not make
any loan or contribute money, goods or services to any person, or borrow money or incur any
indebtedness from any person, or guaranty or agree to become liable for any obligation of, any
person, other than: (a) loans to our employees for reimbursable expenses incurred by such employees
in the normal course of our business; (b) extensions of credit in the ordinary course of business
to our customers; (c) purchase money indebtedness incurred solely for the purchase of equipment;
and (d) indebtedness identified in the Loan Agreement, (viii) we may not make capital expenditures
of any kind or nature, including leases of property which are required to be capitalized on our
balance sheet, in an aggregate amount in excess of the $250,000 in any fiscal year, (ix) we may not
declare or pay any dividend upon, make any distribution with respect to, or purchase, redeem or
otherwise acquire any of our capital stock or increase, whether by election, promotion or
otherwise, the aggregate salaries and other compensation paid to our officers by more than 10% in
any fiscal year, (x) we may not cause, permit, or suffer, directly or indirectly a change in
control (as defined in the Loan Agreement), (xi) we may not enter into or be a party to certain
agreements and transactions with an interested party (as defined in the Loan Agreement) or borrower
affiliate (as defined in the Loan Agreement), and (xii) we may not make any payment with respect to
indebtedness that is subordinate to our obligations under the Loan Agreement except as specifically
provided for in an intercreditor agreement. The Loan Agreement also contains certain financial
covenants which we are required to maintain including, but not limited to, maintaining an adjusted
tangible net worth that is not less than $0 and not permit our accounts receivable turnover days to
exceed 75 days.
We were in compliance with the covenants of our Loan Agreement at December 31, 2008. There can be
no assurances we will be able to comply with the covenants or other terms contained in the Loan
Agreement. We may not be
18
successful in obtaining a waiver of non-compliance with these financial covenants. If we are
unable to comply with the covenants or other terms of the Loan Agreement, absent a waiver, we will
be in default of the Loan Agreement and the lender can take any of the actions discussed above.
Our revenues will continue to be impacted by the loss of customers due to price competition and
technological advances. Our future financial performance could be negatively affected by
unforeseen factors and unplanned expenses. See Item 1A. and Risk Factors in our Form 10-K for
the year ended March 31, 2008.
In furtherance of our business strategy, transactions we may enter into could increase or decrease
our liquidity at any point in time. If we were to obtain a significant contract or make contract
modifications, we may be required to expend our cash or incur debt, which will decrease our
liquidity. Conversely, if we dispose of assets, we may receive proceeds from such sales which
could increase our liquidity. From time to time, we may entertain discussions concerning
acquisitions and dispositions which, if consummated, could impact our liquidity, perhaps
significantly.
We expect to continue to require funds to meet remaining interest and principal payment
obligations, capital expenditures and other non-operating expenses. Our future capital
requirements will depend on many factors, including revenue growth, expansion of our service
offerings and business strategy.
At December 31, 2008 we had working capital of $437,000 and at March 31, 2008, we had a deficit in
working capital of $510,000, respectively. The current ratio was 1.05 at December 31, 2008 compared
to .96 at March 31, 2008.
Capital expenditures for the nine months ended December 31, 2008 were $81,000 as compared to
$353,000 for the same period in 2007. We anticipate fiscal year 2009 technology requirements to
result in capital expenditures totaling approximately $250,000. We continue to sublease a portion
of our headquarters building which reduces our rent expense by approximately $400,000 annually.
Our subordinated debt agreements with Nancy Scurlock and the Arch C. Scurlock Childrens Trust,
which are referred to as affiliates, totaled $1.0 million at December 31, 2008. Pursuant to a
subordination agreement between Textron Financial Corporation and the subordinated debt holders,
principal repayment and interest payable on the subordinated debt agreements may not be paid
without the consent of Textron Financial Corporation. On December 31, 2008, each of the affiliates
referred to above, held $500,000 face amounts of our 8% promissory notes, with an aggregate
outstanding principal balance of $1.0 million. Interest payable to the affiliates was
approximately $282,000 at December 31, 2008. The 8% promissory notes mature on July 1, 2009.
If any act of default occurs, the principal and interest due under the 8% promissory notes issued
under the subordinated debt agreement will be due and payable immediately without any action on
behalf of the note holders and if not cured, could trigger cross default provisions under our loan
agreement with Textron Financial Corporation If we do not make a payment of any installment of
interest or principal when it becomes due and payable, we are in default. If we breach or default
in the performance of any covenants contained in the notes and continuance of such breach or
default for a period of 30 days after the notice to us by the note holders or breach or default in
any of the terms of borrowings by us constituting superior indebtedness, unless waived in writing
by the holder of such superior indebtedness within the period provided in such indebtedness not to
exceed 30 days, we would be in default on the 8% promissory notes.
Off Balance Sheet Arrangements
In conjunction with a government contract, we act as a conduit in a financing transaction on behalf
of a third party. We routinely transfer receivables to a third party in connection with equipment
sold to end users. The credit risk passes to the third party at the point of sale of the
receivables. Under the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 140,
Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishment of Liabilities,
transfers were accounted for as sales, and as a result, the related receivables have been excluded
from the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The amount paid to us for the receivables by
the transferee is equal to our carrying value and therefore there is no gain or loss recognized.
The end user remits its monthly payments directly to an escrow account held by a third party from
which payments are made to the transferee and us, for various services provided to the end users.
We provide limited monthly servicing whereby we invoice the end user on behalf of the transferee.
The off-balance sheet transactions had no impact on our liquidity or capital resources. We are not
aware of any event, demand or uncertainty that would likely terminate the agreement or have an
adverse affect on our operations.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
We are exposed to changes in interest rates, primarily as a result of using bank debt to finance
our business. The floating interest debt exposes us to interest rate risk, with the primary
interest rate exposure resulting from changes in the prime rate. It is assumed in the table below
that the prime rate will remain constant in the future. Adverse changes in the interest rates or
our inability to refinance our long-term obligations may have a material negative impact on our
results of operations and financial condition.
The definitive extent of the interest rate risk is not quantifiable or predictable because of the
variability of future interest rates and business financing requirements. We do not customarily
use derivative instruments to adjust our interest rate risk profile.
The information below summarizes our sensitivity to market risks as of December 31, 2008. The
table presents principal cash flows and related interest rates by year of maturity of our funded
debt. The carrying value of our debt approximately equals the fair value of the debt. Note 6 to
the consolidated financial statements in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended March
31, 2008 contains descriptions of funded debt and should be read in conjunction with the table
below.

At December 31, 2008, we had approximately $3.5 million of debt outstanding of which $1.5 million
bore fixed interest rates. If the interest rates charged to us on our variable rate debt were to
increase significantly, the effect could be materially adverse to our current and future
operations.
We conduct a limited amount of business overseas, principally in Western Europe. At the present,
all transactions are billed and denominated in U.S. dollars and consequently, we do not currently
have any material exposure to foreign exchange rate fluctuation risk.
Item 4T. Controls and Procedures
Quarterly Evaluation of the Companys Disclosure Controls and Internal Controls. The
Company evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure controls and
procedures as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the
Act), as of the end of the period covered by this Form 10-Q (Disclosure Controls). This
evaluation (Disclosure Controls Evaluation) was done under the supervision and with the
participation of management, including the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Chief Financial
Officer (CFO).
The Companys management, with the participation of the CEO and CFO, also conducted an evaluation
of the Companys internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the
Act, to determine whether any changes occurred during the period ended December 31, 2008 that have
materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Companys internal control
over financial reporting (Internal Controls Evaluation).
20
Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls. Control systems, no matter how well
conceived and operated, are designed to provide a reasonable, but not an absolute, level of
assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control
system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must
be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems,
no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of
fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. Because of the inherent limitations in a
cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.
The Company conducts periodic evaluation of its internal controls to enhance, where necessary, its
procedures and controls.
Conclusions. The Companys CEO and CFO concluded that the Companys disclosure controls and
procedures were not effective as of December 31, 2008 in reaching a reasonable level of assurance
that (i) information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or
submits under the Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods
specified in the Securities and Exchange Commissions rules and forms and (ii) information required
to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Act is accumulated
and communicated to the Companys management, including its principal executive and principal
financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely
decisions regarding required disclosure. The company previously reported on Form 10K for the year
ended March 31, 2008 there were two material weaknesses in our internal controls over financial
reporting. The Company is in the process of remediating these weaknesses.
There were no changes in internal controls over financial reporting as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of
the Act that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect internal
controls over the Companys internal control over financial reporting.
