Halo Technology Holdings, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Note 1. Organization, Merger, Description of Business and Basis of Presentation
Halo Technology Holdings, Inc. (collectively with its subsidiaries, the Company or Halo)
is a Nevada corporation with its principal executive office in Greenwich, Connecticut. The Company
changed its name to Halo Technology Holdings, Inc. from Warp Technology Holdings, Inc, effective
April 2, 2006. As a consequence of the name change, the Companys ticker symbol quoted on the OTC
Bulletin Board changed from WARP to HALO. The new symbol has been effective since the open of
business on Monday, April 3, 2006.
The Company is a holding company whose subsidiaries operate enterprise software and
information technology businesses. In addition to holding its existing subsidiaries, the Companys
strategy is to pursue acquisitions of businesses which either complement the Companys existing
businesses or expand the industries in which the Company operates.
On January 31, 2005, the Company completed the acquisition of Gupta Technologies, LLC
(together with its subsidiaries, Gupta). Gupta is now a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company,
and Guptas wholly owned subsidiaries, Gupta Technologies GmbH, a German corporation, and Gupta
Technologies Ltd., a U.K. company, have become indirect subsidiaries of the Company.
Gupta develops, markets and supports software products that enable software programmers to
create enterprise class applications, operating on either the Microsoft Windows or Linux operating
systems that are used in large and small businesses and governmental entities around the world.
Guptas products include a popular database application and a well-known set of application
development tools. The relational database product allows companies to manage data closer to the
customer, where capturing and organizing information is becoming increasingly critical. This
product is designed for applications being deployed in situations where there are little or no
technical resources to support and administer databases or applications. Gupta recently released
its Linux product line. Compatible with its existing Microsoft Windows-based product line, the
Linux line of products will enable developers to write one application to run in both Microsoft
Windows and Linux operating systems. Gupta has headquarters in California, and has a regional
office in Munich and sales offices in London and Paris.
On September 13, 2006, the Company entered into a Purchase and Exchange Agreement with Unify
Corporation whereby the Company agreed to sell Gupta to Unify in exchange for (i) Unifys risk
management software and solution business as conducted by Unify through its Acuitrek, Inc.
subsidiary (Acuitrek) and its Insurance Risk Management division, including, without limitation,
the Acuitrek business and the NavRisk product (the NavRisk Business), (ii) Unifys ViaMode
software product and related intellectual property rights (the ViaMode Product), (iii) 5,000,000
shares of Unify common stock, (iv) warrants to acquire 750,000 shares of Unify stock, (v)
$5,000,000 in cash, of which Halo has received $500,000 as a deposit (the Deposit), and (vi) the
amount by which the Gupta Net Working Capital exceeds the NavRisk Net Working Capital (as such
terms are defined in the Unify Purchase Agreement, the Working Capital Adjustment). The sale of
Gupta is expected to close in the second quarter of fiscal 2007.
Warp Solutions, Inc. a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, produces a series of
application acceleration products that improve the speed and efficiency of transactions and
information requests that are processed over the internet and intranet network systems. The
subsidiarys suite of software products and technologies are designed to accelerate network
applications, reduce network congestion, and reduce the cost of expensive server deployments for
enterprises engaged in high volume network activities.

the world. RevCasts flagship product, Integrated Merchandising Solution (IMS), is being used today

Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared
in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for
interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-QSB and Article 10 of Regulation
S-X . Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. In
the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered
necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three months ended
September 30, 2006 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the
fiscal year ending June 30, 2007. For further information, refer to the financial statements and
footnotes thereto included in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-KSB/A for the year ended June
30, 2006 filed with the SEC on October 26, 2006.
12
Going Concern
The Company has incurred recurring operating losses since its inception, as of September 30,
2006, had an accumulated deficit of $97,966,309, and, at September 30, 2006, had insufficient
working capital to fund all of its obligations. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the
Companys ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any
adjustments to reflect the possible future effect of the recoverability and classification of
assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result from the outcome of this
uncertainty.
The Companys continuation as a going concern is dependant upon receiving additional
financing. Given the Companys current cash position, and its expectations of cash flows from
operations, the Company anticipates requiring additional working capital of approximately $4 to $6
million for the year ending June 30, 2007, of which we have received $1.5 million in a transaction
completed October 12, 2006, see Subsequent Events Subordinated Debt Financing. The Company
expects to pursue equity or debt financing in order to meet these capital needs. There can be no
assurance that the Company will be successful in such efforts. In the absence of such further
financing, the Company will either be unable to meet its debt obligations or will have to
significantly restructure its operations, or a combination of these two actions. Such actions would
significantly negatively affect the value of Halos common stock.
13
Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Reclassification.
As a result of the agreement to sell the Guptas business (see Note 7), certain
reclassifications have been made to the prior year financial statements to conform to the current
year presentation. Guptas assets and liabilities are shown as Assets held for sale and
liabilities of discontinued operations, respectively, on the Companys Consolidated Balance
Sheet. Similarly, Guptas results of operations are shown as income (loss) from discontinued
operations on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Segment
The Company has reviewed the provisions of SFAS 131, Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise
and Related Information with respect to the criteria necessary to evaluate the number of operating
segments that exist, based on its review the Company has determined that it operates in one
segment.
Income (Loss) Per Share
Basic and diluted net income (loss) per share information for all periods is presented under the
requirements of SFAS No. 128, Earnings Per Share. Basic income (loss) per share is calculated by
dividing the net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average common
shares outstanding during the period. Diluted income (loss) per share is calculated by dividing net
loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average common shares outstanding.
The Company computed its basic and diluted net income (loss) per common share as follows:

The dilutive effect of preferred stock, warrants and options convertible into an aggregate of
approximately 25,711,324 for the three months ended September 30, 2006 are not included as the
inclusion of such would be anti-dilutive.
For the three months ended September 30, 2005, warrants to purchase 169,576 common shares and
stock options to purchase 628,453 common shares were not included in the diluted earnings per share
computation as the exercise prices were above the average market price.

Stock-Based Compensation
Prior to January 1, 2006, the Company used the intrinsic value method to account for
stock-based compensation in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 (ABP 25),
Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and had adopted the disclosure-only provisions of SFAS
No 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, as amended by SFAS No 148, Accounting for
Stock-Based Compensation-Transition and Disclosure.
Effective January 1, 2006, the Company adopted the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS
123(R) (revised 2004), Share-Based Payment (SFAS 123(R)) which eliminates the use of APB 25 and
the intrinsic value method of accounting, and requires entities to recognize the cost of employee
services received in exchange for awards of equity instruments, based on the grant-date fair value
of those awards, in the financial statements. The Company has adopted the modified prospective
method whereby compensation cost is recognized in the financial statements beginning with the
effective date based on the requirements of SFAS 123(R) for all share-based payments granted after
that date and for all unvested awards granted prior to that date. Accordingly the prior period
amounts have not been restated.
The Companys net income would have been decreased for the three months ended September 30,
2005 had compensation costs for the Companys stock option grants been determined based on the fair
value at the date of the grant dates for awards under these plans in accordance with SFAS 123(R).
The proforma amounts have been as follows:

The fair value for these options was estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes
option-pricing model. Option pricing models require the input of highly subjective assumptions.
Because the Companys employee stock has characteristics significantly different from those of
traded options, and because changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the
fair value estimate, in managements opinion, the existing models do not necessarily provide a
reliable single measure of the fair value of its employee stock options.
The company used the following weighted-average assumptions in the three months ended

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123(R), Share-Based Payment, which establishes
standards for transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods or
services. This standard requires an entity to measure the cost of employee services received in
exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant date fair value of the award. This
eliminates the exception to account for such awards using the intrinsic method previously allowable
under APB Opinion No. 25. For the Company, SFAS No. 123 (R) is effective as of January 1, 2006. The
Company did not apply this method to prior periods. The impact on this new standard, if it had been
in effect prior to January 1, 2006 is disclosed above in Note 2 Summary of Significant
Accounting Policies Stock Based Compensation.
On March 29, 2005, the Staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC or the Staff)
issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107, Share-Based Payment (SAB 107). Although not altering
any conclusions reached in SFAS 123(R), SAB 107 provides the views of the Staff regarding the
interaction between SFAS 123(R) and certain SEC rules and regulations and, among other things,
provide the Staffs views regarding the valuation of share-based payment arrangements for public
companies. The Company followed the interpretative guidance on share-based payment set forth in
SAB 107.
In May 2005, the FASB issued SFAS 154, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections, that
applies to all voluntary changes in accounting principle. This statement requires retrospective
application to prior periods financial statements of changes in accounting principle, unless it is
impracticable to determine either the period-specific effects or the cumulative effect of the
change. When it is impracticable to determine the period-specific effects of an accounting change
on one or more individual prior periods presented, this statement requires that the new accounting
principle be applied to the balances of assets and liabilities as of the beginning of the earliest
period for which retrospective application is practicable and that a corresponding adjustment be
made to the opening balance of retained earnings (or other appropriate components of equity or net
assets in the statement of financial position) for that period rather than being reported in an
income statement. When it is impracticable to determine the cumulative effect of applying a change
in accounting principle to all prior periods, this statement requires that the new accounting
principle be applied as if it were adopted prospectively from the earliest date practicable. SFAS
154 will be effective for us for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007. We do not anticipate that the
adoption of SFAS No. 154 will have an impact on our overall results of operations or financial
position.
In February 2006, the FASB issued SFAS 155, Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial
Instrumentsan amendment of FASB Statements No. 133 and 140, that allows a preparer to elect fair
value measurement at acquisition, at issuance, or when a previously recognized financial instrument
is subject to a remeasurement (new basis) event, on an instrument-by-instrument basis, in cases in
which a derivative would otherwise have to be bifurcated. It also eliminates the exemption from
applying Statement 133 to interests in securitized financial assets so that similar instruments are
accounted for similarly regardless of the form of the instruments. This Statement is effective for
all financial instruments acquired or issued after the beginning of an entitys first fiscal year
that begins after September 15, 2006. The Company does not anticipate that the adoption of SFAS No.
155 will have an impact on the Companys overall results of operations or financial position.
In March 2006, the FASB issued SFAS 156, Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assetsan
amendment of FASB Statement No. 140, that applies to the accounting for separately recognized
servicing assets and servicing liabilities. This Statement requires that all separately recognized
servicing assets and servicing liabilities be initially measured at fair value, if practicable. An
entity should adopt this Statement as of the beginning of its first fiscal year that begins after
September 15, 2006. The Company does not anticipate that the adoption of SFAS No. 156 will have an
impact on the Companys overall results of operations or financial position.
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measures (SFAS 157). SFAS 157
defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about
fair value measurements. This statement applies
16
under other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements. However,
it does not apply to SFAS 123(R). This statement shall be effective for financial statements issued
for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years.
Earlier application is encouraged, provided that the reporting entity has not yet issued financial
statements for that fiscal year, including any financial statements for an interim period within
that fiscal year. The provisions of this statement should be applied prospectively as of the
beginning of the fiscal year in which this Statement is initially applied, except in some
circumstances where the statement shall be applied retrospectively. The Company is currently
evaluating the effect, if any, of SFAS 157 on its financial statements.

C Stock (Series C Warrants) pursuant to the Subscription Agreement, dated January 31, 2005, have
agreed to amend and exercise their warrants under the cashless exercise provision contained in
Section 1(c) of the Warrants, resulting in a net issuance of shares of Common Stock representing
50% of the shares these stockholders would be entitled to under the Warrants. During the three
months ended September 30, 2006, the holders of 182,494 warrants exercised this right and received
91,247 shares of Common Stock under the net exercise provision ( for additional information, see

ended September 30, 2006.
In accordance with EITF 00-19 Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to, and
Potentially Settled in, a Companys Own Stock, the Company treats warrants with a cashless
exercise feature as a derivative. In addition to recognizing the value of the warrants by
discounting the related debt and amortizing the discount to interest expense over the life of the
debt, the value of the warrants are recognized as liabilities and revalued at the end of each
period. The Company grouped series of warrants that are treated as derivative into three
categories: 1) warrants to acquire common stock issued in connection with the Series C preferred
stock issued by the Company between March and June 2005, 2) warrants issued in connection with
senior and subordinated debt issued by the Company in January 2005, and 3) other warrants issued to
Fortress and others in various time periods, including the warrants issued in the three months
ended September 30, 2006. The following is the summary of the outstanding warrants in each
category as of and for the period ended September 30, 2006:

Note 4. Acquisition of Tenebril, Inc
On August 24, 2006, the Company completed a purchase of Tenebril, Inc.(Tenebril), a
privately held Boston based software company providing award-winning Internet and spyware
protection to consumers and organizations. The companys
SpyCatcher(TM) Enterprise protects
enterprise computers from the most insidious category of evasive threats hyper-mutating and
custom-coded spyware. Tenebrils patent-pending Spyware Profiling Engine(TM) differentiates
SpyCatcher from its competitors by providing continuous protection that defeats these newly
emerging threats.
Under the terms of the purchase agreement, Tenebril shall be merged with and into the Merger
Sub (the Merger) with Tenebril surviving as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. At the
effective time of the Merger, the shares of Target Capital Stock issued and outstanding immediately
prior to the effective time were converted into promissory notes issued by the Company (each, a
Promissory Note and collectively, the Promissory Notes). The aggregate original principal
amount of all Promissory Notes issued by Company was $3,000,000.
The Promissory Notes are due February 15, 2007, and accrue interest at a rate equal to eight
and one-quarter percent (8.25%) per annum. At the Company option, the Company may convert some or
all of the amount due under the Promissory Notes into shares of
18
Common Stock of the Company. The number of shares issued upon conversion will be the total
amount being converted divided by the Conversion Price then in effect. The Conversion Price is 85%
of the Market Price as defined in the Promissory Notes.
At the Closing, the Company also delivered to a certain broker a promissory note (the Target
Broker Promissory Note). The Target Broker Promissory Note was in the original principal amount of
$110,000, plus applicable interest, and is due on February 15, 2007
The Company recorded a total purchase price of $3,639,412, which is calculated by dividing the
principal amount of the notes of $3,000,000 by 85% and adding the $110,000 of the Target Broker
Promissory Note as a transaction cost.
The purchase of Tenebril resulted in approximately $3,439,000 of goodwill. The Company agreed
to a transaction that resulted in a significant amount of goodwill for a number of reasons
including: Tenebrils market position and brand; Tenebrils business model which complements the
business models of certain of the Companys other businesses; and growth opportunities in the
markets in which Tenebril operates. Tenebril was acquired with the plan of merging Tenebril into
Process Software, Inc, one of the Companys existing subsidiaries, with complementary products and
services. The predominant portion of the consideration paid for Tenebril was based on the expected
financial performance of Tenebril and the combined business after the merger. The tax deductibility
of the acquired goodwill is to be determined.

Note 5. Acquisition of RevCast, Inc.
On September 15, 2006, the Company acquired RevCast, Inc., (RevCast). RevCast provides
forecasting and replenishment solutions to some of the largest manufacturers in the world.
RevCasts flagship product, Integrated Merchandising Solution (IMS), is being used today by several
manufacturers that work with Wal-Mart and other major retailers, which share direct POS
information.
The purchase consideration was 350,000 shares of the Halos common stock, as well as the
royalty payments, if and when due under the purchase agreement. The common stock shares were issued
in October 2006. The royalty payments are defined in the purchase agreement as twenty percent (20%)
of revenues generated by the assets of the acquired company. The royalty payments will be paid in
cash quarterly. The maximum royalty payment will be $400,000.
The total purchase price recorded was $248,500 based on the Companys common stock average
price of 2 days prior to and 2 days after the acquisition date. The royalty payments will be added
to the purchase price as they are incurred.
The purchase of RevCast resulted in approximately $261,000 of goodwill. The Company agreed to
this transaction which resulted in a significant amount of goodwill for a number of reasons
including: RevCasts market position and brand; RevCasts business model which complements the
business models of certain of the Companys other businesses; and growth opportunities in the
markets in which RevCast operates. RevCast was acquired with the plan of merging RevCast into the
Companys Kenosia subsidiary since the businesses are related. The predominant portion of the
consideration paid for RevCast was based on the expected financial performance of RevCast and the
combined business after the merger. The tax deductibility of the acquired goodwill is to be
determined.

The Unify Purchase Agreement contains indemnity terms which provide that each party shall

Note 8. Credit Agreement
On August 2, 2005, the Company entered a Credit Agreement (the Credit Agreement),
with Fortress Credit Corp. as original lender (together with any additional lenders, the
Lenders), and Fortress Credit Corp. as Agent (the Agent). In addition, the Company entered into
a $10,000,000 Promissory Note (the Note) with the Lenders, an Intercreditor Agreement with the
Lenders, the Agent and certain subordinated lenders (the Intercreditor Agreement), a security
agreement with the Agent (the Security Agreement), Pledge Agreements with the Lender (the Pledge
Agreements), and a Warrant Agreement with the Agent (the Warrant Agreement).
Collectively the Credit Agreement, such other agreements and the subsidiary security
agreements referenced below are referred to as the Financing Documents.
21
The Credit Agreement and the other Financing Documents have the following material terms:
|
|
Subject to the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement, the Lenders agreed to make
available to the Company a term loan facility in three Tranches, Tranches A, B and C, in an
aggregate amount equal to $50,000,000. |
|
|
|
The maximum amount of loans under Tranche A of the credit facility is $10,000,000. The

|
|
|
Advances under Tranche B and Tranche C must be approved by the Lenders, and are subject
to the satisfaction of all conditions precedent required by the Lenders including the
condition that a default not occur under the loans as a result of the advance. |
|
|
|
The rate of interest (the Interest Rate) payable on the Loan for each calendar month
(an Interest Period) is a floating percentage rate per annum equal to the sum of the
LIBOR for that period plus the Margin. For theses purposes, LIBOR means for any Interest
Period the rate offered in the London interbank market for U.S. Dollar deposits for the
relevant Interest Period; provided, however, that for purposes of calculating the Interest
Rate, LIBOR shall at no time be less than a rate equal to 2.65%. For these purposes,
Margin means 9% per annum. Interest is due and payable monthly in arrears. |
|
|
|
Provided there has been no event of default under the Loan, an amount of interest equal
to 4% per annum that would otherwise be paid in cash instead may be paid in kind (PIK) by
such amount being added to the principal balance of the Loan on the last day of each month.
Such PIK amount will then accrue interest and be due and payable on the same terms and
conditions as the Loan. The Company may, at its option, elect to terminate the PIK interest
arrangement and instead pay such amount in cash. As of September 30, 2006, the Company
accrued and expensed $1,051,399 in relation to the PIK interest. |
|
|
|
If any sum due and payable under the credit facility is not paid on the due date
therefore, the Company shall be liable to pay interest on such overdue amount at a rate
equal to the then current Interest Rate plus 3% per annum. |

|
|
Principal amounts due under the Loans begin to be amortized on August 2, 2006, with the
complete Loan to be repaid in full no later than the Maturity Date which is four years after
the closing. The repayment due within one year is $2,769,189 as of September 30, 2006.
$873,000 for the fair value of the warrants issued in connection of this loan will also be
amortized within one year. Net of these two amounts, $1,896,189, is classified under
Current portion of senior notes payable on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. At September

A mandatory prepayment is required if, prior to the date which is 9 months after the
Closing Date, (i) the Company has not borrowed under Tranche B, and (ii) the Company has not
acquired (without the incurrence of any indebtedness) 100% of the equity interests of any
new subsidiary which at the time of acquisition had a twelve month trailing EBITDA of
greater than $1,000,000. If prepayments are required due to this reason, the amount of the
prepayment is 85% of the Excess Cash Flow which means, cash provided by operations by the
Company and its subsidiaries determined quarterly less capital expenditures for such period,
provided that the Company shall at all times be allowed to retain a minimum of $1,500,000 of
cash for operating purposes. In addition, the Company must prepay the loan in full no later
than the date which is 21 months after the Closing Date. |

The Credit Agreement contains certain financial covenants usual and customary for
facilities and transactions of this type. These financial covenants include Total Debt to
EBITDA, Cash Interest Coverage Ratio, and Fixed Charge Covenant Ratio as defined. In the
event the Company completes further acquisitions, the Company and the Agent and lenders will
agree upon modifications to the financial covenants to reflect the changes to the Companys
consolidated assets, liabilities, and expected results of operations in amounts to be
mutually agreed to by the parties. On October 12, 2006 Company entered into Amendment
Agreement No. 2 (Amendment Agreement No. 2) Pursuant to this Amendment Agreement No. 2,
certain financial covenants were amended or replaced to reflect the changes to the Companys
current consolidated assets, liabilities, and expected results of operations. The Company is
in compliance with all covenants under the Credit Agreement, Amendment Agreement, and
Amendment Agreement No. 2. The Company anticipates that due to recent transactions, certain
of the covenants under the Credit Agreement may have to be further modified in the future in
order for the Company to continue to comply for future periods. The Company has engaged in
discussions with Fortress, and anticipates negotiating appropriate modifications to the
covenants to reflect these changes in the Companys business as they occur. In the event the
Company completes further acquisitions, the Company and the Lenders will be required to
agree upon modifications to the financial covenants to reflect the changes to the Companys
consolidated assets, liabilities, and expected results of operations in amounts to be
mutually agreed to by the parties. If the Company were to fail to comply with the financial
covenants under the Credit Agreement and the Lenders failed to agree to amend or waive
compliance with the covenants that Halo did not meet, Halo would be in default under the
Credit Agreement. Any default under the Credit Agreement would result in a default under
most or all of Halos other financing arrangements. The Lenders could foreclose on all of
Halos assets, including the stock in its subsidiaries, and could cause Halo to cease
operating. |
|
|
|
The Companys obligations are guaranteed by the direct and indirect subsidiaries of the
Company, including, without limitation, Gupta Technologies, LLC, Kenosia Corporation, and
Warp Solutions, Inc. The amendment agreements described below added TAC/Halo, LLC, Process
Software, LLC, David Corporation, Profitkey International, LLC, Empagio, Inc, Tenebril, Inc,
and RevCast, Inc to this guarantee. |
|
|
|
The Company and its subsidiaries granted first priority security interests in their
assets, and pledged the stock or equity interests in their respective subsidiaries, to the
Agent as security for the financial obligations under the Credit Agreement and the Financing
Documents. In addition, the Company has undertaken to complete certain matters, including
the delivery of stock certificates in subsidiaries, and the completion of financing
statements perfecting the security interests granted under the applicable state or foreign
jurisdictions concerning the security interests and rights granted to the Lenders and the
Agent. |
23
|

As additional security for the lenders making the loans under the Credit Agreement,
certain subsidiaries of the Company have entered into Security Agreements with Fortress
Credit. Corp. relating to their assets in the U.K., and have pledged their interests in the
subsidiaries organized under English law, Gupta Technologies Limited and Warp Solutions
Limited, by entering into a Mortgages of Shares with Fortress. Also, the Companys
subsidiary, Gupta Technologies, LLC (Gupta) and its German subsidiary, Gupta Technologies

commitments attributable to Tranche A and Tranche B are cancelled in accordance with the
Credit Agreement, warrants shall be used for the number of shares based on the Pro Rata
Portion of the Total Commitments attributable to Tranche A or Tranche B which are cancelled.

ITEM 2. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
The following discussion and analysis provides information that the Companys management
believes is relevant to an assessment and understanding of the Companys results of operations and
financial condition. This discussion is based on, and should be read together with, the Companys
accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements, and the notes to such financial
statements, which are included in this report, and with the Companys Form 10-KSB/A for the year
ended June 30, 2006, which was filed with the SEC on October 26, 2006.
Description of Business
Halo Technology Holdings, Inc. is a Nevada corporation with its principal executive office in
Greenwich, Connecticut.
The Company is a holding company whose subsidiaries operate enterprise software and
information technology businesses. In addition to holding its existing subsidiaries, the Companys
strategy is to pursue acquisitions of businesses which either complement the Companys existing
businesses or expand the industries in which the Company operates.
Historical Background
Halo Technology Holdings, Inc. (the Company) was incorporated in the State of Nevada on June 26,
2000 under the name Abbott Mines, Ltd. to engage in the acquisition and exploration of mining
properties. The Company obtained an interest in one mining property with mining claims on land
located near Vancouver in British Columbia, Canada. To finance its exploration activities, the
Company completed a public offering of its common stock, par value $.00001 per share, on March 14,
2001 and listed its common stock on the OTC Bulletin Board on July 3, 2001. The Company conducted
its exploration program on the mining property and the results did not warrant further mining
activity. Halo then attempted to locate other properties for exploration but was unable to do so.
The Acquisition of WARP Solutions, Inc.
On May 24, 2002, the Company and WARP Solutions, Inc. (WARP Solutions) closed a share
exchange transaction (the Share Exchange) pursuant to a Share Exchange Agreement (the Exchange
Agreement) dated as of May 16, 2002, by and among the Company, Carlo Civelli, Mike Muzylowski,
WARP Solutions, Karl Douglas, John Gnip and related Sellers. Following the closing of the Share
Exchange, WARP Solutions became a subsidiary of the Company and the operations of WARP Solutions
became the sole operations of the Company.
Subsequent to the closing of the Share Exchange, the Company ceased all mineral exploration
activities and the sole operations of the Company were the operations of its subsidiary, WARP
Solutions.
Name Changes
On August 19, 2002, the Board of Directors of the Company authorized and approved the upstream
merger of WARP Technology Holdings, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company which had no
operations, with and into the Company pursuant to Chapter 92A of the Nevada Revised Statutes (the
Upstream Merger). The Upstream Merger became effective on August 21, 2002, when the Company filed
Articles of Merger with the Nevada Secretary of State. In connection with the Upstream Merger, and
as authorized by Section 92A.180 of the Nevada Revised Statutes, the Company changed its name from
Abbott Mines Ltd. to WARP Technology Holdings, Inc.
In February, 2006, Halos board of directors approved resolutions to change the Companys name
from Warp Technology Holdings, Inc. to Halo Technology Holdings, Inc. by amending our Articles of
Incorporation. We received the consent of holders of a majority of the outstanding votes entitled
to be cast approving the amendment. Accordingly, effective April 2, 2006, our name changed to Halo
Technology Holdings, Inc.
The Acquisition of Spider Software, Inc.
On January 10, 2003, the Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary 6043577 Canada Inc.,
acquired one hundred percent (100%) of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Spider Software,
Inc. (Spider), a privately held Canadian corporation, through a share exchange transaction
pursuant to a Share Exchange Agreement (the Spider Exchange Agreement) dated as of December 13,
2002. Pursuant to the Spider Exchange Agreement the Spider shareholders were issued 1,500,000
shares of the preferred stock of 6043577 Canada Inc., and the Company forgave outstanding Spider
promissory notes of approximately $262,000, all in exchange for
28
one hundred percent (100%) of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Spider. The Company owns
100% of the voting common stock of 6043577 Canada Inc. The preferred stock of 6043577 Canada Inc.
has no voting rights or other preferences but is convertible on a 100 for 1 basis into the common
stock of the Company. As a result, following the closing, Spider became a wholly-owned subsidiary
of 6043577 Canada Inc. and thereby an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.
Acquisition of Gupta Technologies, LLC
On January 31, 2005, the Company completed the acquisition of Gupta Technologies, LLC and its
wholly-owned subsidiaries Gupta Technologies GmbH, a German company, Gupta Technologies Ltd., a
U.K. company, and Gupta Technologies S.A. de C.V., a Mexican company (collectively referred to
herein as Gupta). The acquisition of Gupta (the Gupta Acquisition) was made pursuant to a
Membership Interest Purchase Agreement (as amended, the Gupta Agreement) between the Company and
Gupta Holdings, LLC (the Gupta Seller).
Under the Gupta Agreement, the total purchase price was $21,000,000, excluding transaction
costs, of which the Company delivered $15,750,000 in cash on or before the closing. The remainder
of the purchase price was paid in equity and debt securities issued or provided by the Company with
the terms described herein. As a result, following the closing, Gupta became a wholly-owned
subsidiary of the Company.
On September 13, 2006, the Company entered into a Purchase and Exchange Agreement with Unify
Corporation whereby the Company agreed to sell Gupta to Unify in exchange for (i) Unifys risk
management software and solution business as conducted by Unify through its Acuitrek, Inc.
subsidiary (Acuitrek) and its Insurance Risk Management division, including, without limitation,
the Acuitrek business and the NavRisk product (the NavRisk Business), (ii) Unifys ViaMode
software product and related intellectual property rights (the ViaMode Product), (iii) 5,000,000
shares of Unify common stock, (iv) warrants to acquire 750,000 shares of Unify stock, (v)
$5,000,000 in cash, of which Halo has received $500,000 as a deposit (the Deposit), and (vi) the
amount by which the Gupta Net Working Capital exceeds the NavRisk Net Working Capital (as such
terms are defined in the Unify Purchase Agreement, the Working Capital Adjustment). The sale of
Gupta is expected to close in the second quarter of fiscal 2007.
Acquisition of Kenosia Corporation
On July 6, 2005, the Company completed the acquisition of Kenosia Corporation (Kenosia)
pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement (The Kenosia Agreement) with Bristol Technology, Inc.
(Bristol) and Kenosia. Under the Kenosia Agreement (the Kenosia Agreement) the Company
purchased all of the stock of Kenosia from Bristol for a purchase price of $1,800,000 (net of a
working capital adjustment). Kenosia is now a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, but as it was
acquired after the end of our fiscal year, its results are not included in the financial results
reported herein.
Acquisition of Five Enterprise Software Companies
On October 26, 2005, Halo completed the acquisition of Tesseract and four other companies;
DAVID Corporation, Process Software, ProfitKey International, and Foresight Software, Inc.
(collectively Process and Affiliates). These transactions were related party transactions.
Tesseract, headquartered in San Francisco, is a total HR solutions provider offering an
integrated Web-enabled HRMS suite. Tesseracts Web-based solution suite allows HR users, employees
and external service providers to communicate securely and electronically in real time. The
integrated nature of the system allows for easy access to data and a higher level of accuracy for

corporations operating in a diverse range of industries, including financial services,
transportation, utilities, insurance, manufacturing, petroleum, retail, and pharmaceuticals.
DAVID Corporation is a pioneer in Risk Management Information Systems. DAVID Corporation
offers client/server-based products to companies that provide their own workers compensation and
liability insurance. Many of DAVID Corporations clients have been using its products for 10 years
or longer.
Process Software develops infrastructure software solutions for mission-critical environments,
including industry-leading TCP/IP stacks, an Internet messaging product suite, and an anti-spam
software subscription service to large enterprises worldwide. With a loyal customer base of over
5,000 organizations, including Global 2000 and Fortune 1000 companies, Process Software has earned
a strong reputation for meeting the stringent reliability and performance requirements of

29
ProfitKey International develops and markets integrated manufacturing software and information
control systems for make-to-order and make-to-stock manufacturers. ProfitKeys offering includes a
suite of e-business solutions that includes customer, supplier and sales portals. ProfitKeys
highly integrated system emphasizes online scheduling, capacity management, and cost management.
Foresight Software, Inc., a client/server Enterprise Resource Planning and Customer
Relationship Management software company, was acquired as part of the acquisition of these five
enterprise software companies. Foresight Software, Inc. was sold to a third-party on May 23, 2006
and is no longer a subsidiary of Halo.
The purchase price for the acquisition of DAVID Corporation, Process Software, ProfitKey
International, and Foresight Software was an aggregate of $12,000,000, which Halo paid in cash.
Under the merger agreement for the acquisition of Tesseract (the Tesseract Merger Agreement), the
merger consideration consisted of (i) $4,500,000 in cash which was paid at closing, (ii) 7,045,454
shares of Series D Preferred Stock of Halo, and (iii) $1,750,000 originally due no later than March
31, 2006 and evidenced by a promissory note to Platinum Equity, LLC (the Platinum Note).
Additionally, Halo was required to pay a working capital adjustment of $1,000,000. Since this
amount was not paid by November 30, 2005, Platinum Equity, LLC (Platinum), the seller of
Tesseract, has the option to convert the working capital adjustment into up to 1,818,182 shares of
Series D Preferred Stock. To date, the Platinum has not elected to do so. Furthermore, since the
working capital adjustment was not paid by November 30, 2005, Halo must pay Platinum a monthly
transaction advisory fee of $50,000 per month, commencing December 1, 2005. As of September 30,
2006, Halo has accrued and expensed approximately $500,000 for such fees.
On March 31, 2006, the Company and Platinum entered into an Amendment and Consent (the
Amendment and Consent) to the Platinum Note. Pursuant to the Amendment and Consent, the maturity
of the Platinum Note was modified such that the aggregate principal amount of the Platinum Note and
all accrued interest thereon shall be due and payable as follows: (i) $1,000,000 on March 31, 2006;
and (ii) the remaining $750,000 in principal, plus all accrued but unpaid interest shall be paid on
the earliest of (w) the second business day following the closing of the acquisition of Unify by
the Company, (x) the second business day following termination of the merger agreement pursuant to
which Unify is to be acquired by the Company, (y) the second business day after the Company closes
an equity financing of at least $2.0 million subsequent to the date of the Amendment and Consent or
(z) July 31, 2006. In accordance with the Amendment and Consent, $1,000,000 was paid to Platinum on
March 31, 2006. Since the entire amount of the Platinum Note was not paid on or before March 31,
2006, Platinum retained 909,091 shares of Series D Preferred Stock of the Company, which had been
previously issued to Platinum as part of the consideration under the Tesseract Merger Agreement.
These shares would have been canceled if the Platinum Note had been paid in full by that date.
Subsequently, the parties have engaged in discussions to further modify the terms of the amounts
owed to Platinum. Platinum has indicated it will waive any current breaches of these obligations,
but the parties have not yet entered into any definitive agreement. However, in the event Platinum
does not agree to modify such terms, the Company would be in breach of such agreements.
The Tesseract Merger Agreement further provides that the rights, preferences and privileges of
the Series D Preferred Stock will adjust to equal the rights, preferences and privileges of the
next round of financing if such financing is a Qualified Equity Offering. Under the Tesseract
Merger Agreement, a Qualified Equity Offering is defined as an equity financing (i) greater than
$5,000,000, (ii) not consummated with any affiliate of Halo, and (iii) the securities issued in
such equity financing are equal or senior in liquidation and dividend preference to the Series D
Preferred Stock. If Halos next round of equity financing is not a Qualified Equity Offering, the
shares of the Series D Preferred Stock will convert at the option of Platinum into the terms of the
offering, or maintain the terms of the Series D Preferred Stock. In addition, the Series D Stock
may be converted into common stock at the election of the holder.
On April 3, 2006, the Company filed a Registration Statement on Form SB-2, File No.
333-132962, registering for resale the shares of common stock of the Company issuable upon
conversion of the Series D Preferred Stock issued to Platinum in connection with the Tesseract
Merger and as payment of dividends on such stock. This Registration Statement is currently pending
before the Securities and Exchange Commission and is not yet effective. The Company will not
receive any proceeds from the resale of the shares nor will the Company control the timing, manner
and size of each sale pursuant to this Registration Statement. If this Registration Statement
becomes effective, the holder of the Series D Preferred Stock will be permitted to convert its
shares of Series D Preferred Stock to common stock and to resell such shares of common stock,
subject to securities law restrictions as a result of Platinum being an affiliate of Halo. Since
the average daily trading volume of Halos common stock is relatively low (approximately 11,000
shares per day during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2006), attempts by the holder of the Series D
Preferred Stock to resell any substantial portion of its shares could result in their being more
shares offered for sale than buyers wishing to purchase shares of Halo common stock. This could
limit the ability of shareholders to sell their shares in the manner or at the price that might be
attainable if Halos common stock were more actively traded or if the Series D Preferred Stock was
not able to be resold pursuant to the Registration Statement on Form SB-2, File No. 333-132962.
30
Acquisition of Empagio
Halo entered into a merger agreement dated December 19, 2005, to acquire Empagio. On January
13, 2006, the closing occurred under the merger agreement and Empagio is now a wholly-owned
subsidiary of Halo. The merger consideration consisted of 1,438,455 shares of common stock. Based
on the closing price of Halos Common Stock on the day of the closing, the total purchase price was
$1,869,992, subject to adjustment.
Empagio is a human resources management software company. Its signature product is its
SymphonyHR hosted software solution which automates HR procedures and reduces paperwork, ranging
from payroll to benefits administration. Halo intends to integrate Empagio with additional HR
solutions already within its portfolio to create a premier human resources management solutions
provider. Empagios operations have been consolidated with the operations of Tesseract and the
consolidated entity operates under the name Empagio.
Acquisition of ECI
On January 30, 2006, Halo entered into a merger agreement with ECI (the ECI Merger
Agreement). On March 1, 2006, the closing occurred under the ECI Merger Agreement, and ECI became
a wholly owned subsidiary of Halo. The total merger consideration for all of the equity interests
in ECI was $578,571 in cash and cash equivalents and 330,688 shares of Halos common stock (with a
value of $558,863 at the closing price of Halos common stock), subject to adjustment based on the
Net Working Capital (as defined in the ECI Merger Agreement) on the closing date. The acquisition
of ECIs clients will enhance Empagios human resources software offerings. ECIs operations will
be consolidated with the operations of Empagio.
Foresight Sale
On May 23, 2006, the Company and Foresight Acquisition Company, LLC (Buyer) entered into a
Merger Agreement pursuant to which Buyer acquired 100% of the outstanding common stock of Foresight
Software, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Halo in exchange for a cash payment to Halo. The
Company received $266,402 for this sale, of which $114,500 was applied to the principal of the
outstanding Fortress debt. The Company recorded a gain of $12,072 on this sale.
Acquisition of Tenebril
On August 24, 2006, the Company purchased Tenebril. Tenebril is a Boston-based software
company providing award-winning Internet and spyware protection to consumers and organizations.
Tenebrils SpyCatcher(TM) Enterprise is the first and only spyware solution that protects
enterprise computers from the most insidious category of evasive threats hyper-mutating and
custom-coded spyware. Tenebrils patent-pending Spyware Profiling Engine(TM) differentiates
SpyCatcher from its competitors by providing continuous protection that defeats these newly
emerging threats. The convertible promissory notes of $3,000,000 were issued as the purchase
consideration. Tenebril was acquired with the plan of merging Tenebril into Process Software, Inc,
one of the Companys existing subsidiaries, with complementary products and services.
Acquisition of RevCast
On September 15, 2006 the Company acquired an Illinois-based software company, RevCast.
RevCast provides forecasting and replenishment solutions to some of the largest manufacturers in
the world. RevCasts flagship product, Integrated Merchandising Solution (IMS), is being used today
by several manufacturers that work with Wal-Mart and other major retailers, which share direct POS
information. The purchase consideration was 350,000 shares of the Halos common stock, as well as
the royalty payments, which is twenty percent (20%) of revenues generated by RevCasts assets, will
be paid in cash quarterly, and has a maximum of $400,000. RevCast was acquired with the plan of
merging into the Kenosia subsidiary since the businesses are related.
Business of the Company
Halo is a holding company whose subsidiaries operate enterprise software and information
technology businesses. The following pages describe the business of Halos existing subsidiaries,
Gupta Technologies, LLC, Warp Solutions, Kenosia Corporation, Tesseract Corporation, DAVID
Corporation, Process Software, ProfitKey International, Empagio and ECI. In addition to holding its
31
existing subsidiaries, Halos strategy is to pursue acquisitions of businesses, which either
complement Halos existing businesses or expand the industries in which Halo operates.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123(R), Share-Based Payment, which establishes
standards for transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods or
services. This standard requires an entity to measure the cost of employee services received in
exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant date fair value of the award. This
eliminates the exception to account for such awards using the intrinsic method previously allowable
under APB Opinion No. 25. For the Company, SFAS No. 123 (R) is effective as of January 1, 2006. The
Company did not apply this method to prior periods. The impact on this new standard, if it had been
in effect prior to January 1, 2006 is disclosed above in Note 2 Summary of Significant Accounting
Policies Stock Based Compensation.
On March 29, 2005, the Staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC or the Staff)
issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107, Share-Based Payment (SAB 107). Although not altering
any conclusions reached in SFAS 123(R), SAB 107 provides the views of the Staff regarding the
interaction between SFAS 123(R) and certain SEC rules and regulations and, among other things,
provide the Staffs views regarding the valuation of share-based payment arrangements for public
companies. The Company followed the interpretative guidance on share-based payment set forth in SAB
107.
In May 2005, the FASB issued SFAS 154, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections, that
applies to all voluntary changes in accounting principle. This statement requires retrospective
application to prior periods financial statements of changes in accounting principle, unless it is
impracticable to determine either the period-specific effects or the cumulative effect of the
change. When it is impracticable to determine the period-specific effects of an accounting change
on one or more individual prior periods presented, this statement requires that the new accounting
principle be applied to the balances of assets and liabilities as of the beginning of the earliest
period for which retrospective application is practicable and that a corresponding adjustment be
made to the opening balance of retained earnings (or other appropriate components of equity or net
assets in the statement of financial position) for that period rather than being reported in an
income statement. When it is impracticable to determine the cumulative effect of applying a change
in accounting principle to all prior periods, this statement requires that the new accounting
principle be applied as if it were adopted prospectively from the earliest date practicable. SFAS
154 will be effective for us for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007. We do not anticipate that the
adoption of SFAS No. 154 will have an impact on our overall results of operations or financial
position.
In February 2006, the FASB issued SFAS 155, Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial
Instruments-an amendment of FASB Statements No. 133 and 140, that allows a preparer to elect fair
value measurement at acquisition, at issuance, or when a previously recognized financial instrument
is subject to a remeasurement (new basis) event, on an instrument-by-instrument basis, in cases in
which a derivative would otherwise have to be bifurcated. It also eliminates the exemption from
applying Statement 133 to interests in securitized financial assets so that similar instruments are
accounted for similarly regardless of the form of the instruments. This Statement is effective for
all financial instruments acquired or issued after the beginning of an entitys first fiscal year
that begins after September 15, 2006. The Company does not anticipate that the adoption of SFAS No.
155 will have an impact on the Companys overall results of operations or financial position.
In March 2006, the FASB issued SFAS 156, Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assets-an
amendment of FASB Statement No. 140, that applies to the accounting for separately recognized
servicing assets and servicing liabilities. This Statement requires that all separately recognized
servicing assets and servicing liabilities be initially measured at fair value, if practicable. An
entity should adopt this Statement as of the beginning of its first fiscal year that begins after
September 15, 2006. The Company does not anticipate that the adoption of SFAS No. 156 will have an
impact on the Companys overall results of operations or financial position.
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measures (SFAS 157). SFAS 157
defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about
fair value measurements. This statement applies under other accounting pronouncements that require
or permit fair value measurements. However, it does not apply to SFAS 123(R). This statement shall
be effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007,
and interim periods within those fiscal years. Earlier application is encouraged, provided that the
reporting entity has not yet issued financial statements for that fiscal year, including any
financial statements for an interim period within that fiscal year. The provisions of this
statement should be applied prospectively as of the beginning of the fiscal year in which this
Statement is initially applied, except in some circumstances where the statement shall be applied
retrospectively. The Company is currently evaluating the effect, if any, of SFAS 157 on its
financial statements.

Critical Accounting Policies
The discussion and analysis of the Companys financial condition and results of operations is
based on the Companys consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these
financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported
amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses and disclosure of contingent liabilities.
On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to revenue
recognition and accounting for intangible assets. We base our estimates on historical experience
and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual
results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
We have identified the accounting policies below as the policies critical to the Companys
business operations and the understanding of the Companys results of operations. We believe the
following critical accounting policies and the related judgments and estimates affect the
preparation of the Companys consolidated financial statements:
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with the American Institute of Certified Public
Accountants Statement of Position (SOP) 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition.
Revenues are derived from the licensing of software, maintenance contracts, training, and
other consulting services.
In arrangements that include rights to multiple software products and/or services, the Company
allocates and defers revenue for the undelivered items, based on vendor-specific objective evidence
of fair value, and recognizes the difference between the total arrangement fee and the amount
deferred for the undelivered items as revenue. Vendor specific objective evidence of fair value for
undelivered elements of an arrangement is based upon the normal pricing and discounting practices
for those products and services when sold separately and for maintenance contracts, is additionally
measured by the renewal rate offered to the customer. In arrangements in which the Company does not
have vendor-specific objective evidence of fair value of maintenance, and maintenance is the only
undelivered item, the Company recognizes the total arrangement fee ratably over the contractual
maintenance term.
Software license revenues are recognized upon receipt of a purchase order and delivery of
software, provided that the license fee is fixed or determinable; no significant production,
modification, or customization of the software is required; and collection is considered probable
by management. For licensing of Companys software through its indirect sales channel, revenue is
recognized when the distributor sells the software to its end-users, including value-added
resellers. For licensing of software to independent software vendors, revenue is recognized upon
shipment to the independent software vendors.
Service revenue for maintenance contracts is deferred and recognized ratably over the term of
the agreement. Revenue from training and other consulting services is recognized as the related
services are performed.
Business Combinations and Deferred Revenue.
In accordance with business combination accounting, we allocate the purchase price of acquired
companies to the tangible and intangible assets acquired, and liabilities assumed, based on their
estimated fair values. We engage third-party appraisal firms to assist management in determining
the fair values of certain assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Such a valuation requires
management to make significant estimates and assumptions, especially with respect to intangible
assets and deferred revenue.
Management makes estimates of fair value based upon assumptions believed to be reasonable.
These estimates are based on historical experience and information obtained from the management of
the acquired companies and are inherently uncertain. Critical estimates in valuing certain of the
intangible assets include but are not limited to: future expected cash flows from license sales,
maintenance agreements, consulting contracts, customer contracts and acquired developed
technologies and patents; the acquired companys brand awareness and market position, as well as
assumptions about the period of time the acquired brand will continue to be used in the combined
companys product portfolio; and discount rates. Unanticipated events and circumstances may occur
which may affect the accuracy or validity of such assumptions, estimates or actual results.
We have acquired several software companies in fiscal 2006, and we plan to make more acquisitions
in the future. Acquired deferred revenue is recognized at fair value to the extent it represents a
legal obligation assumed by us in accordance with EITF 01-03, Accounting in a Business Combination
for Deferred Revenue of an Acquiree. Under this guidance, the Company estimates fair values of
acquired deferred revenue by adding an approximated normal profit margin to the estimated cost
required to fulfill the
33
obligation underlying the deferred revenue. As a result of this valuation, the deferred revenues of
the acquired companies normally decrease substantially. In the enterprise software industry, this
reduction averages between forty to sixty percent of the original balance. The reduction of the
deferred revenue has a negative effect on the recognized revenue until the deferred revenue balance
builds up to a normal level of the acquired business. The length of this effect depends on
contracts underlying the deferred revenue. As the Company continues to acquire more businesses in
the enterprise software industry, the effect of this deferred revenue valuation will have
significant effect on the Companys results of operations.
Product Development Costs
Product development costs incurred in the process of developing product improvements and
enhancements or new products are charged to expense as incurred. Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards (SFAS) No. 86, Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software to be Sold, Leased or
Otherwise Marketed, requires capitalization of certain software development costs subsequent to the
establishment of technological feasibility. Based on the Companys product development process,
technological feasibility is established upon the completion of a working model. Costs incurred by
the Company between the completion of the working model and the point at which the product is ready
for general release has been insignificant.
Intangible assets and Goodwill
Intangible assets are primarily comprised of customer relationships, developed technology,
trade names and contracts. Goodwill represents acquisition costs in excess of the net assets of
businesses acquired. In accordance with SFAS 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets goodwill
is no longer amortized; instead goodwill is tested for impairment on an annual basis. We assess the
impairment of identifiable intangibles and goodwill whenever events or changes in circumstances
indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. Factors we consider to be important which
could trigger an impairment review include the following:
|
|
|
Significant underperformance relative to expected historical or projected future operating results; |
|
|
|
|
Significant changes in the manner of use of the acquired assets or the strategy for the overall business; and |
|
|
|
|
Significant negative industry or economic trends. |
When we determine that the carrying value of intangibles and other long-lived assets may not
be recoverable based upon the existence of one or more of the above indicators of impairment and
the carrying value of the asset cannot be recovered from projected undiscounted cash flows, we
record an impairment charge. We measure any impairment based on a projected discounted cash flow
method using a discount rate determined by management to be commensurate with the risk inherent in
the current business model. Significant management judgment is required in determining whether an
indicator of impairment exists and in projecting cash flows. Trade names are considered to have
indefinite life. All other intangibles are being amortized over their estimated useful life of
three to ten years.
We have recorded a significant amount of goodwill on our balance sheet. As of September 30,
2006, goodwill was approximately $30 million, representing approximately 48% of our total assets
and approximately 72% of our long-lived assets subject to depreciation, amortization and
impairment. In the future, goodwill may increase as a result of additional acquisitions we will
make. Goodwill is recorded on the date of acquisition and is reviewed at least annually for
impairment. Impairment may result from, among other things, deterioration in the performance of our
business, adverse market conditions and a variety of other circumstances. Any future determination
requiring the write-off of a significant portion of the goodwill recorded on our balance sheet
could have an adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.
Stock-Based Compensation
Prior to January 1, 2006, the Company used the intrinsic value method to account for stock-based
compensation in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 (APB 25), Accounting
for Stock Issued to Employees, and had adopted the disclosure-only provisions of SFAS No. 123,
Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, as amended by SFAS No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation Ì Transition and Disclosure. Effective January 1, 2006, the Company adopted the fair
value recognition provisions of SFAS 123(R), Share-Based Payment (SFAS 123(R)). SFAS 123(R)
requires entities to recognize the cost of employee services received in exchange for awards of
equity instruments based on the grant-date fair value of those awards (with limited exceptions). As
a result, compensation cost of the Company for the year ended September 30, 2006 includes
compensation expense for unvested portion of all the stock options outstanding and all the stock
options granted after the effective date. No restatement has been made to prior periods. We had
applied APB 25s intrinsic value method up to December 31, 2005, and
34
presented pro forma income statements in the footnote to show the effect of FAS123(R) as if it had
been implemented in the prior periods.

Revenue
Revenue is derived from the licensing of software, maintenance contracts, training, and other
consulting services. License revenue is derived from licensing of our software and third-party
software products. Services revenue results from consulting and education services, and
maintaining, supporting and providing periodic unspecified upgrades for previously licensed
products.
Total revenue increased by $6.2 million to $6.5 million for the three months ended September 30,
2006 from $288,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2005. This increase was primarily due
to the acquisitions of Empagio, $2.9 million, Process and Affiliates, $2.9 million and Tenebril,
$97,000. In addition, there was a net increase in Kenosia of $243,000 of which approximately
$166,000 was due to increase in consulting revenue and $122,000 was due to more deferred revenue
purchase accounting adjustments recognized in fiscal year 2005. Kenosias increase was partially
offset by a decrease in the license revenue.
License revenue increased by $552,000 to $637,000 for the three months ended September 30,
2006 from $85,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2005. This increase was primarily due to
the acquisitions of Empagio, $38,000, Process and Affiliates, $560,000 and the increase was
partially offset by a decrease in Kenosia of $45,000.
Services revenue increased $5.7 million to $5.9 million for the three months ended September
30, 2006 from $203,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2005. This increase was primarily
due to the acquisitions of Empagio, $2.9 million, Process and Affiliates, $2.4 million and
Tenebril, $97,000. In addition, there was a net increase in Kenosia of $288,000 of which
approximately $166,000 was due to increase in consulting revenue and $122,000 was due to more
deferred revenue purchase accounting in fiscal year 2005.
Because of the reduction of deferred revenue after an acquisition under generally accepted
accounting principles, which has the effect of reducing the amount of revenue recognized in a given
period from what would have been recognized had the acquisition not occurred, past reported periods
should not be relied upon as predictive of future performance. Additionally, the Companys
operating strategy is to continue to acquire technology companies. Each of such transactions will
cause a change to our future financial results.
Cost of Revenue
Total cost of revenue increased by $1.6 million to $1.7 million for the three months ended
September 30, 2006 from $64,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2005. This increase was
primarily due to the acquisitions of Empagio, $993,000, Process and Affiliates, $582,000 and
Tenebril, $69,000.
35
The principal components of cost of license fees are manufacturing costs, shipping costs,
royalties paid to third-party software vendors, and amortization of acquired technologies. Cost of
license revenue increased by $205,000 to $212,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2006
from $7,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2005. This increase was primarily due to the
acquisitions of Empagio, $69,000 and Process and Affiliates, $137,000.
The principal components of cost of services are salaries paid to our customer support
personnel and professional services personnel, amounts paid for contracted professional services
personnel and third-party resellers, maintenance royalties paid to third-party software vendors and
hardware costs. Cost of services revenue increased by $1.4 million to $1.5 million for the three
months ended September 30, 2006 from $58,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2005. This
increase was primarily a result of an increase in employee compensation directly related to
additional headcounts added in conjunction with the acquisitions of Empagio, $924,000, Process and
Affiliates, $445,000 and Tenebril $69,000.
Gross profit margins were 74% for the three months ended September 30, 2006, compared to 78%
for the three months ended September 30, 2005. The gross margin decrease was mainly due to the
change in the product mix (increase in the proportion of maintenance and services revenue) the
Company sells from the new subsidiaries.
36
Operating Expenses
Research and Development
Research and development expense consists primarily of salaries and other personnel-related
expenses for engineering personnel, expensable hardware and software costs, overhead costs and
costs of contractors. Research and development expenses increased by approximately $1.1 million to
$1.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2006 from $86,000 for the three months ended
September 30, 2005. This increase primarily resulted from the acquisitions of Empagio, $425,000,
Process and Affiliates, $561,000, and Tenebril, $117,000. To date, all software development costs
have been expensed as incurred.
Sales and Marketing
Selling and marketing expenses consist primarily of salaries, commissions, benefits,
advertising, tradeshows, travel and overhead costs for the Companys sales, marketing, and business
development personnel. Sales and marketing expenses increased by approximately $890,000 to $1
million for the three months ended September 30, 2006 from $130,000 for the three months ended
September 30, 2005. This increase was primarily attributable to the acquisitions of Empagio,
$351,000, Process and Affiliates, $315,000 and Tenebril, $42,000. There was also an increase of
$187,000 in corporate headcount to manage the increasing size and complexity of the Companys
operation.
General and Administrative
General and administrative costs include salaries and other direct employment expenses of our
administrative and management employees, as well as legal, accounting and consulting fees and bad
debt expense. General and administrative expenses increased by approximately $3 million to $3.7
million for the three months ended September 30, 2006 from $634,000 for the three months ended
September 30, 2005. This increase was primarily attributable to the acquisitions of Empagio, $1
million, Process and Affiliates, $907,000 and Tenebril, $74,000. There was also an increase of
approximately $1.1 million in corporate headcount to manage the increasing size and complexity of
the Companys operations, as the Company has acquired new subsidiaries, as well as professional
services fees associated with the acquisitions, securities laws, and tax compliance.
Fair Value Gain on Warrants
Certain warrants the Company issued as part of its financing activities have features that
require them to be treated as a derivative in accordance with EITF 00-19, Accounting for
Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to, and Potentially Settled in, a Companys Owned Stock.
In addition to recognizing the value of the warrants by discounting the related debt and amortizing
the discount to interest expense over the life of the debt, the value of the warrants are
recognized as liabilities and revalued at the end of each period. The fair values of these warrants
are determined based on the Black-Scholes model, Changes in fair values are charged to the
Statements of Operations. Generally, if the Companys stock price increases, the fair value of the
warrants increases, causing the liability to increase and resulting in loss, and vice versa.
Fair value gain on warrants revaluation was approximately $2.7 million and $23.8 million for
the three months ended September 30, 2006 and September 30, 2005, respectively. The gains were
results of the stock price decrease. These gains relate to the change in the fair value of the
warrants relating to the Series C Preferred Stock, Senior Notes, Subordinated Notes, Fortress, DCI
Master LDC and notes issued to other investors.
Interest Expense
Interest expense increased by $2.7 million to $4.8 million for the three months ended
September 30, 2006 from $2.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2005. The increase
was primarily due to the beneficial conversion of convertible notes of $1.5 million, cash and
accrued interest of $927,000, amortization of warrants of $257,000. The increase was partially
offset by the decrease in amortization of deferred financing costs of $74,000.
Results of Discontinued Operations
On September 13, 2006, the Company entered into an agreement to sell its subsidiary, Gupta
Technologies, LLC, to Unify Corporation in exchange for Unifys two business units and other
considerations. Pursuant to Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144 Accounting for the
Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets (SFAS 144), Guptas results of operations
37
are shown as income (loss) from discontinued operations on the Consolidated Statements of
Operations. Condensed financial information related to these discontinued operations is as

Revenues of the discontinued operations decreased by $200,000 to $2.7 million for the three months
ended September 30, 2006 from $2.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2005. This
decrease was primarily due to the lower billing of the license sale in the anticipation of a new
version release of Guptas main product lines.
Income before taxes from the discontinued operations increased by $789,000 to $157,000 for the
three months ended September 30, 2006 from a loss of $632,000 for the three months ended September
30, 2005. This increase was primarily due to the lower cost structure from a reduction in force
Gupta executed in April 2006. The increase was partially offset by the lower revenues described
above.
Net Operating Loss Carryforwards
The Company has a U.S. Federal net operating loss carryforward of approximately $54,625,000 as
of September 30, 2006, which may be used to reduce taxable income in future years through the year
2026. The deferred tax asset primarily resulting from net operating losses was approximately
$21,782,000. Due to uncertainty surrounding the realization of the favorable tax attributes in
future tax returns, the Company has placed a full valuation allowance against its net deferred tax
asset. At such time as it is determined that it is more likely than not that the deferred tax asset
is realizable, the valuation allowance will be reduced. Furthermore, the net operating loss
carryforward may be subject to further limitation pursuant to Section 382 of the Internal Revenue
Code
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Halo has three primary cash needs. These are (1) operations, (2) acquisitions and (3) debt
service and repayment. Halo has financed a significant component of its cash needs through the sale
of equity securities and debt.
For the three months ended September 30, 2006, cash used in continuing operations was
approximately $1.4 million. Our net loss $3.1 million was offset by gain on warrants revaluation of
$2.7 million and decrease in deferred revenue of $1.1million. In addition, components of cash used
for operating activities included non-cash interest expense of $3.5 million, depreciation and
amortization expense of $404,000, and non-cash compensation expense of $558,000, and increase in
accounts payable and accrued expenses of $1 million. The Company acquired cash of $623,000 through
the acquisition of Tenebril. The Company also received $500,000 as a deposit for the anticipated
sale of Gupta. $270,000 was used to repay the principal portion of the outstanding debt. $390,000
was also provided by Guptas operations, which were classified as discontinuing operations, pending
the sale of the business.
On January 31, 2005, Halo issued $2,500,000 principal amount of subordinated convertible
promissory notes (the Subordinated Notes). The Subordinated Notes bear interest at 10%, payable
in common stock or cash, and mature January 31, 2007. The Subordinated Notes are convertible at any
time into shares of Halo common stock at $1.00 per share, which conversion rate is subject to
certain anti-dilution adjustments. The common stock issuable upon conversion of the Subordinated
Notes has certain registration rights.
Halo entered into a $50,000,000 credit facility with Fortress Credit
Opportunities I LP and Fortress Credit Corp. on August 2, 2005 (the Credit Agreement). Subject to
the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement, the lenders thereunder (the Lenders)
38
agreed to make available to Halo a term loan facility in three Tranches, Tranches A, B and C, in an
aggregate amount equal to $50,000,000 (the Loan). In connection with entering into the Credit
Agreement, Halo borrowed $10,000,000 under Tranche A to repay its then-existing senior
indebtedness, as well as certain existing subordinated indebtedness and to pay certain closing
costs. On October 26, 2005, in connection with the closings of the acquisition of Tesseract, DAVID
Corporation, Process Software, ProfitKey International and Foresight Software, Inc., Halo entered
into Amendment Agreement No. 1 (Amendment Agreement) to the Credit Agreement under which the
Lenders made an additional loan of $15,000,000 under Tranche B of the credit facility under the
Credit Agreement. The rate of interest payable on the amounts borrowed under the Loan is a floating
percentage rate per annum equal to the sum of the LIBOR for that period plus the Margin. For
theses purposes, LIBOR means the rate offered in the London interbank market or U.S. Dollar
deposits for the relevant period but no less than 2.65%. For these purposes, Margin means 9% per
annum. Interest is due and payable monthly in arrears.
The Credit Agreement contains certain financial covenants usual and customary for facilities
and transactions of this type. These financial covenants include Total Debt to EBITDA, Cash
Interest Coverage Ratio, and Fixed Charge Covenant Ratio as defined. As of September 30, 2006, the
Company is in compliance with these financial covenants. The Company anticipates that due to recent
transactions, certain of the covenants under the Credit Agreement may have to be modified in the
future in order for the Company to continue to comply for future periods. The Company has engaged
in discussions with Fortress, and anticipates negotiating appropriate modifications to the
covenants to reflect these changes in the Companys business as they occur. In the event the
Company completes further acquisitions, the Company and the Lenders will be required to agree upon
modifications to the financial covenants to reflect the changes to the Companys consolidated
assets, liabilities, and expected results of operations in amounts to be mutually agreed to by the
parties. If the Company were to fail to comply with the financial covenants under the Credit
Agreement and the Lenders failed to agree to amend or waive compliance with the covenants that Halo
did not meet, Halo would be in default under the Credit Agreement. Any default under the Credit
Agreement would result in a default under most or all of Halos other financing arrangements. The
Lenders could foreclose on all of Halos assets, including the stock in its subsidiaries, and could
cause Halo to cease operating.
In addition, the Credit Agreement provides that in the event of certain changes of control,
including (i) a reduction in the equity ownership in Halo of Ron Bienvenu or his immediate family
members below 90% of such equity interests on the date of the Credit Agreement, or (ii) Ron
Bienvenu ceases to perform his current management functions and is not replaced within 90 days by a
person satisfactory to Fortress, all amounts due may be declared immediately due and payable.
The Credit Agreement contains specific events of default, including failure to make a payment,
the breach of certain representations and warranties, and insolvency events. There is also a
cross-default provision that provides that certain events of default under certain contracts
between Halo or its subsidiaries and third parties will constitute an event of default under the
Credit Agreement.
Halos obligations under the Credit Agreement are guaranteed by the direct and indirect
subsidiaries of Halo, and any new subsidiaries of Halo are obligated to become guarantors. Halo and
its subsidiaries granted first priority security interests in their assets, and pledged the stock
or equity interests in their respective subsidiaries, as collateral for the Loans. In addition,
Halo has undertaken to complete certain matters, including the delivery of stock certificates in
subsidiaries, and the completion of financing statements perfecting the security interests granted
under the applicable state or foreign jurisdictions concerning the security interests and rights
granted to the Lenders. Any new subsidiary of Halo will become subject to the same provisions.
On October 26, 2005, as part of the acquisition of Tesseract, Halo issued to Platinum Equity,
LLC, a promissory note in the amount of $1,750,000 (the Platinum Note). The Platinum Note was
issued in a related party transaction. The principal under the Platinum Note accrues interest at a
rate of 9.0% per annum. The principal and accrued interest under the Platinum Note was originally
due on March 31, 2006. Interest is payable in registered shares of common stock of Halo, provided
that until such shares are registered, interest shall be paid in cash. The Platinum Note contains
certain negative covenants including that Halo will not incur additional indebtedness, other than
permitted indebtedness under the Platinum Note. Under the Platinum Note, the following constitute
an event of default: (a) Halo shall fail to pay the principal and interest when due and payable:
(b) Halo fails to pay any other amount under the Platinum Note when due and payable: (c) any
representation or warranty of Halo was untrue or misleading in any material respect when made; (d)
there shall have occurred an acceleration of the state maturity of any indebtedness for borrowed
money of Halo or any Halo subsidiary of $50,000 or more in aggregate principal amount; (e) Halo
shall sell, transfer, lease or otherwise dispose of all or any substantial portion of its assets in
one transaction or a series of related transactions, participate in any share exchange, consummate
any recapitalization, reclassification, reorganization or other business combination transaction or
adopt a plan of liquidation or dissolution or agree to do any of the foregoing; (f) one or more
judgments in an aggregate amount in excess of $50,000 shall have been rendered against Halo or any
Halo subsidiary; (g) Halo breaches certain of its covenants set forth in the Platinum Note; or (h)
an
39
Insolvency Event (as defined in the Platinum Note) occurs with respect to Halo or a Halo
subsidiary. Upon such an event of default, the holder may, at its option, declare all amounts owed
under the Platinum Note to be due and payable.
Additionally, under the Tesseract Merger Agreement, Halo was required to pay Platinum a
working capital adjustment of $1,000,000. Since this amount was not paid by November 30, 2005,
Platinum has the option to convert the working capital adjustment into up to 1,818,182 shares of
Series D Preferred Stock. To date, the Platinum has not elected to do so. Furthermore, since the
working capital adjustment was not paid by November 30, 2005, Halo must pay Platinum a monthly
transaction advisory fee of $50,000 per month, commencing December 1, 2005. As of September 30,
2006, Halo has accrued and expensed approximately $500,000 for such fees.
On March 31, 2006, the Company and Platinum entered into an Amendment and Consent (the
Amendment and Consent) to the Platinum Note. Pursuant to the Amendment and Consent, the maturity
of the Platinum Note was modified such that the aggregate principal amount of the Platinum Note and
all accrued interest thereon shall be due and payable as follows: (i) $1,000,000 on March 31, 2006;
and (ii) the remaining $750,000 in principal, plus all accrued but unpaid interest shall be paid on
the earliest of (w) the second business day following the closing of the acquisition of Unify by
the Company, (x) the second business day following termination of the merger agreement pursuant to
which Unify is to be acquired by the Company, (y) the second business day after the Company closes
an equity financing of at least $2.0 million subsequent to the date of the Amendment and Consent or
(z) July 31, 2006. In accordance with the Amendment and Consent, $1,000,000 was paid to Platinum on
March 31, 2006. Since the entire amount of the Platinum Note was not paid on or before March 31,
2006, Platinum retained 909,091 shares of Series D Preferred Stock of the Company, which had been
previously issued to Platinum as part of the consideration under the Tesseract Merger Agreement.
These shares would have been canceled if the Platinum Note had been paid in full by that date.
Subsequently, the parties have engaged in discussions to further modify the terms of the amounts
owed to Platinum. Platinum has indicated it will waive any current breaches of these obligations,
but the parties have not yet entered into any definitive agreement. However, in the event Platinum
does not agree to modify such terms, the Company would be in breach of such agreements.
Conversion of Notes Payable into Common Stock and Warrants
On July 21, 2006, Halo issued an aggregate of 2,732,392 shares of common stock in conversion
of (1) an aggregate of $1,850,000 of convertible promissory notes previously issued by the Company
in September 2005, October 2005, and January 2006 (and $126,041.67 of interest on such amount) as
described in the Halos Current Report on Form 8-K filed January 18, 2006, and (2) an aggregate of
$1,375,000 (and $64,444.44 of interest on such amount) previously issued by the Company in January
2006 as described in the Halos Current Report on Form 8-K filed February 2, 2006. In addition, the
investors received warrants to acquire an aggregate of 2,049,296 shares of common stock of the
Company. The warrants have an exercise price of $1.25 per share, are exercisable over a five year
term and subject to certain adjustments as set forth in the warrant. A copy of the form of the
warrant is attached as Exhibit 10.126 to the Companys Current Report on Form 8-K filed July 27,
2006, and is incorporated herein by reference. In addition, 54,000 shares of common stock and
warrants to acquire 40,500 shares of common stock were issued in payment of $67,500 in advisory
fees.
Working Capital Requirements
Halos future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including cash
flow from operations, continued progress in research and development programs, competing
technological and market developments, and Halos ability to maintain its current customers and
successfully market its products, as well as any future acquisitions it undertakes. Halo intends to
meet its cash needs, as in the past, through cash generated from operations, the proceeds of
privately placed equity issuances and debt. Even without further acquisitions, in order to meet its
financial obligations including repayment of outstanding debt obligations, Halo will have to issue
further equity and engage in further debt transactions. There can be no guarantee that Halo will be
successful in such efforts. In the absence of such further financing, Halo will either be unable to
meet its debt obligations or with have to significantly restructure its operations, or a
combination of these two actions. Such actions would significantly negatively affect the value of
Halos common stock.
Halos working capital requirements as of September 30, 2006 was a deficit of approximately
$10.2 million, comprised primarily of accounts payable and accrued expenses, $8.3 million, deferred
revenue, $8.8 million, short-term debt, $8.6 million, and liabilities of discontinued operations of
$5.3 million which was partially offset by cash $510,000, accounts receivable, $2.3 million,
prepaid expenses and other current assets, $1 million, and assets held for sale, $17.4 million.
Halos working capital requirements as of June 30, 2006 was a deficit of approximately $7.8
million, comprised primarily of accounts payable and accrued expenses, $6.7 million, deferred
revenue, $9.5 million, short-term debt, $7.6 million, and liabilities of discontinued operations of
$5.9 million
40
which was partially offset by cash $854,000, accounts receivable, $2 million, prepaid expenses
and other current assets, $315,000, and assets held for sale, $18.3 million.
The increase in our capital requirements for the three months ended September 30, 2006 is primarily
due to the issuance of the promissory note in the principal amount of $3,000,000 to the sellers of
Tenebril, Inc.. This note is convertible into Halos Common stock at the option of Halo. It is
probable that this conversion will take place and the liability will be removed by the issuance of
the equity. The Company recorded $3.5 million in liability for this note to adjust for the
conversion terms. The Company also experienced an increase of $1.6 million in accounts payable and
accrued expenses, reflecting temporary shortage of cash. The increase in the capital requirements
is mainly offset by the conversion of the short-term notes. As described in Conversion of Notes
Payable into Common Stock and Warrants, the Company converted approximately $3.6 million of its
convertible notes and accrued interest into the Common Stock and warrants.
The Company expects its spending on research and development in the current fiscal year to
remain consistent with the level of such expenditures in the fiscal year ended June 30, 2006,
subject to changes in operations due to acquisitions or sales of subsidiary companies.
The Company anticipates further material increases in its operating costs for the current
fiscal year ending June 30, 2007. We expect substantially increasing operating expenses in
connection with the growth of our operations, the development of our enterprise technologies, the
expansion of our services operations and our acquisition activity. Our capital requirements during
the year ending June 30, 2007 will depend on numerous factors including the amount of resources we
devote to:
|
|
|
Funding the continued development of our products; |
|
|
|
|
Sales and marketing efforts; |
|
|
|
|
improving and extending our services and the technologies used to deliver these services to our customers; |
|
|
|
|
pursuing other strategic acquisitions and alliances; and |
|
|
|
|
making possible investments in businesses, products and technologies. |
The Company has incurred recurring operating losses since its inception, as of September 30,
2006, had an accumulated deficit of $97,966,309, and, at September 30, 2006, had
insufficient working capital to fund all of its obligations. These conditions raise substantial
doubt about the Companys ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not
include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effect of the recoverability and
classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result from the
outcome of this uncertainty.
The Companys continuation as a going concern is dependant upon receiving additional
financing. Given our current cash position, and our expectations of cash flows from operations, we
anticipate requiring additional working capital of approximately $4 to $6 million for the year
ending June 30, 2007 of which we have received $1.5 million in a transaction completed October 12,
2006, see Subsequent Events Subordinated Debt Financing. We expect to pursue equity or debt
financing in order to meet these capital needs. There can be no assurance that we will be
successful in such efforts. In the absence of such further financing, Halo will either be unable to
meet its debt obligations or will have to significantly restructure its operations, or a
combination of these two actions. Such actions would significantly negatively affect the value of
Halos common stock.
Investing Activities and Current Debt
As of September 30, 2006, the Company had debt that matures in the next 12 months in the
amount of approximately $8,923,000. This consists of $1,750,000 payable to Platinum Equity, LLC
(seller of Tesseract, Process, David, Profitkey, and Foresight), $2,769,189 as current portion of
Fortress debt, $1,243,885 due to ISIS, $3,000,0000 payable to Tenebril seller, and $160,000 notes
payable to other investors. $1,000,000 was paid to Platinum Equity, LLC on March 31, 2006 to reduce
the note to the current balance. On July 21, 2006, the Company converted $3,225,000 of notes
payables into equity securities in the quarter ended September 30, 2006. See Conversion of Notes
Payable into Common Stock and Warrants above. In addition, the principal amounts due under the
Credit Agreement with Fortress begin to amortize on August 2, 2006. The Company paid $270,000 to
Fortress in the three months ended September 30, 2006.
41
Halo continues to evaluate strategic alternatives, including opportunities to strategically
grow the business, enter into strategic relationships, make acquisitions or enter into business
combinations. Halo can provide no assurance that any such strategic alternatives will come to
fruition and may elect to terminate such evaluations at any time.
Subsequent Events
Restatement of Financial Results
In the course of responding to comments received from the SEC in connection with the Companys
registration statement on Form S-4 filed April 5, 2006, and amended on June 1, 2006, the Company
identified errors resulting from the improper treatment of certain warrants to acquire common stock
of the Company in accordance with EITF 00-19, Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments
Indexed to, and Potentially Settled in, a Companys Own Stock .. The Company had treated the
warrants as equity, but the warrants should have been treated as liabilities.
Accordingly, on September 1, 2006, the Companys Board of Directors determined that investors
should not rely on the Companys (a) consolidated financial statements for the period ended June
30, 2005 and the report thereon of the Companys independent registered public accountants,
included in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-KSB filed with the SEC on September 28. 2005,
(b) condensed consolidated financial statements for the period ended September 30, 2005, included
in the Companys Quarterly Report on Form 10-QSB filed with the SEC on November 14, 2005, (c)
condensed consolidated financial statements for the period ended December 31, 2005, included in the
Companys Quarterly Report on Form 10-QSB filed with the SEC on February 15, 2006, and (d)
condensed consolidated financial statements for the period ended March 31, 2006, included in the
Companys Quarterly Report on Form 10-QSB filed with the SEC on May 15, 2006. On October 10,
2006, the Board of Directors subsequently determined that investors should not rely on the
Companys condensed consolidated financial statements for the period ended March 31, 2005, included
in the Companys Quarterly Report on Form 10-QSB filed with the SEC on May 20, 2005.
As a result of these determinations, the Company has amended its Annual Report for the year
ended June 30, 2005 and its Quarterly Reports for the interim periods ended March 31, 2006,
December 31, 2005, September 30, 2005, and March 31, 2005. The amended Annual Report and the
amended Quarterly Reports were filed with the SEC on October 11, 2006. The Companys Board of
Directors have discussed these matters with the Companys independent registered public accounting
firm.
Subordinated Debt Financing
On October 12, 2006, the Company entered into that certain Subscription Agreement (the
Subscription Agreement) for the sale of the certain convertible promissory notes (each a Note
and collectively, the Notes) and warrants (the Warrants) to acquire common stock in the
Company. In connection with these transactions, the Company and the investors entered into certain
subordination agreements concerning the priority of the Companys debt, and certain ancillary
agreements, which are all described below.
The Company sold Notes in the aggregate principal amount of One Million Five Hundred Thousand
Dollars ($1,500,000) under the Subscription Agreement. The Company received $1,500,000 in cash from
the Investor. The Notes are convertible into common stock at any time at the option of the holder.
The maturity date of the Notes is three years after the date of issuance. In the event that the
Notes are not converted by the maturity dates of the Notes, any principal outstanding will then be
due and payable. Interest on outstanding principal amounts accrues at the rate of ten percent (10%)
per annum and is payable in shares of the Companys common stock. The Company may prepay the amount
due under the Notes at any time, provided that the Company make a proportional prepayment on any
other Notes sold under the Subscription Agreement. If the holder of the Notes elects to convert the
Note into common stock, the holder will receive a number of shares equal to the amount of principal
being converted, divided by the conversion price, which is $0.68, subject to change as provided in
the Note. In addition, the Company issued Notes in the aggregate principal amount of One Million
Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($1,250,000) under the Subscription Agreement in exchange for
1,000,000 shares of the Companys common stock previously held by the investor.
Pursuant to the Subscription Agreement the Company issued Warrants to purchase a number of
shares of the Companys common stock equal to 50% of the number of shares which would be issued
upon conversion of the Notes. Accordingly, the Company issued warrants to acquire 1,102,942 shares
of common stock in connection with the issuance of Notes in the aggregate principal amount of
$1,500,000. The warrants have a conversion price of $.80 per share (subject to certain
anti-dilution adjustments as provided in the
42
Warrant) and are exercisable for a period of 5 years. The Company did not issue warrants in
connection with the issuance of the $1,250,000 Note.
The material terms of the Subscription Agreements are as follows. The Company and the
investors (the Investors) under the Subscription Agreements made certain representations and
warranties customary in private financings, including representations from the Investors that they
are accredited investors as defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D ( Regulation D )
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
The Company undertakes to register the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the
Notes, and upon conversion of the Warrants (together, the Registrable Shares ) via a
suitable registration statement pursuant to the registration rights set forth in the Subscription
Agreement. If a registration statement covering the Registrable Shares has not been declared
effective no later than 120 days from the closing, the Investors will receive certain penalties
either in cash or in additional shares of common stock as set forth in the Subscription Agreement.
The Investors will also have rights to participate in up to $5,000,000 of any future equity or
convertible debt offerings by the Company.
On October 12, 2006, the Company entered into that a letter agreement (the Vision Agreement)
with Vision Opportunity Master Fund, Ltd. (Vision). In consideration for Visions entering into
the Subscription Agreement and acting as lead investor, in addition to the Notes and Warrants that
issued pursuant to the Subscription Agreement, the Company also issued to Vision warrants to
purchase a number of shares of the Companys common stock equal to 50% of the number of shares
which would be issued upon conversion of the Notes purchased by Vision. Accordingly, the Company
issued to Vision additional warrants (the Additional Warrants) to acquire 1,102,942 shares of
common stock in connection with the issuance of Notes in the aggregate principal amount of
$1,500,000.
Furthermore, the Company agreed that, for as long as Vision is a holder of at least 25% of the
Notes or Warrants purchased under the Subscription Agreement (or the shares of Common Stock
issuable upon the conversion or exercise thereof), Vision will have the right to nominate one
director to the Companys board of directors. The Company shall recommend that its shareholders
approve such nomination at any shareholders meeting for the election of directors or in connection
with any written consent of shareholders of the election of directors.
Under the Vision Agreement, the Company agreed to reduce its parent company overhead by a
minimum of 25% within six (6) months of the Closing and represented that it shall use at least $5
million of the estimated $6 million in proceeds from the sale of its Gupta subsidiary to reduce the
amount of its indebtedness to Fortress Credit Corp.
On October 12, 2006 the Company entered into that certain Subordination Agreement (the
Subordination Agreement) with the Investor under the Subscription Agreement and Fortress Credit
Corp. (Fortress), Halos senior creditor pursuant to which the Investor agreed that the Notes are
expressly subordinate and junior in right of payment to all senior obligations owed by the Company
to Fortress or another senior lender under Halos existing senior credit facility with Fortress.
Also under this Subordination Agreement, Fortress consented to the issuance of the Notes and the
other transactions set forth in the Subscription Agreement.
On October 12, 2006 the Company entered into that certain Intercreditor and Subordination
Agreement (the Intercreditor Agreement) with the Investor under the Subscription Agreement and
Halos existing subordinated debt lenders (the Existing Lenders), Crestview Capital Master, LLC
(Crestview) and CAMOFI Master LDC (CAMOFI). Under the Intercreditor Agreement the Investor
agreed that the Notes are expressly subordinate and junior in right of payment to all senior
obligations owed by the Company to the Existing Lenders under Halos existing subordinated notes
purchased by the Existing Lenders under that certain Subordinated Note and Warrant Purchase
Agreement dated January 31, 2005.
On October 12, 2006 the Company, the Investor, the Existing Lenders, and Fortress entered into
a letter agreement (the Fortress Letter Agreement) whereby the parties agreed not to amend or
modify the Intercreditor Agreement without the prior written consent of Fortress.
On October 12, 2006 the Company, Crestview and CAMOFI entered into a Consent Agreement (the
Consent) whereby Crestview and CAMOFI consented to the transactions contemplated by the
Subscription Agreement in consideration of: (i) the Company adjusting the Conversion Price set
forth in the Subordinated Notes held by Crestview and CAMOFI to be modified from $1.00 to $0.68,
and (ii) the Warrant Price set forth in the existing warrants held by those entities to be
modified from $1.25 to $0.68.
Amendment No. 2 to Fortress Credit Agreement
43
On October 12, 2006 Company entered into Amendment Agreement No. 2 (Amendment Agreement)
between the Company and Fortress relating to the Credit Agreement dated August 2, 2005 between the
Company, the Subsidiaries of the Company listed in Schedule 1 thereto (the Subsidiaries),
Fortress Credit Corp., as original lender (together with any additional lenders, the Original
Lenders), and the Agent. Pursuant to this Amendment Agreement, certain covenants were amended.
The covenants amended related to the financial ratios between the earnings of the Companys
operating subsidiaries and the Companys debt, to reflect the changes to the Company since the
first amendment to the Credit Agreement, in October of 2005, primarily the addition of Empagio,
Tenebril and RevCast as subsidiaries of the Company, the sale of Foresight, and the impending sale
of Gupta.
Resignation of Director
Effective October 20, 2006, John L. Kelly resigned from the board of directors of the Company
due to other commitments. Mr. Kellys resignation is not attributable to any disagreement with the
Company on any matter relating to the Companys operations, policies or practices.
Decision
not to Stand for Re-election.
Effective October 27, 2006, John A. Boehmer has determined not to stand for re-election to the
board of directors of the Company at the Companys next Annual Meeting of Stockholders. Mr.
Boehmers decision not to stand for re-election is not attributable to any disagreement with the
Company on any matter relating to the Companys operations, policies or practices.
CAUTIONARY LANGUAGE CONCERNING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-QSB contains forward-looking statements within the meaning
of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (the Reform Act). Forward-looking
statements include, without limitation, any statement that may predict, forecast, indicate or imply
future results, performance or achievements, and may contain the words believe, anticipate,
expect, estimate, intend, project, plan, will be, will likely continue, will likely
result, or words or phrases with similar meaning. All of these forward-looking statements are
based on estimates and assumptions made by our management that, although we believe to be
reasonable, are inherently uncertain. Forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties,
including, but not limited to, economic, competitive, governmental and technological factors
outside of our control, that may cause our business, strategy or actual results to differ
materially from the forward-looking statements. We operate in a changing environment in which new
risks can emerge from time to time. It is not possible for management to predict all of these
risks, nor can it assess the extent to which any factor, or a combination of factors, may cause our
business, strategy or actual results to differ materially from those contained in forward-looking
statements. Factors you should consider that could cause these differences include, among other
things: general economic and business conditions, including exchange rate fluctuations; our ability
to identify acquisition opportunities and effectively and cost-efficiently integrate acquisitions
that we consummate; our ability to maintain effective internal control over financial reporting;
our ability to attract and retain personnel, including key personnel; our success in developing and
introducing new services and products; and, competition in the software industry, as it relates to
both our existing and potential new customers. These forward-looking statements are made only as of
the date hereof, and we undertake no obligation to update or revise the forward-looking statements,
whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. The safe harbors for
forward-looking statements provided by the Reform Act are unavailable to issuers of penny stock.
Our shares may be considered a penny stock and, as a result, the safe harbors may not be available
to us.
ITEM 3. Controls And Procedures
As of September 30, 2006, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the
supervision and with the participation of the Companys management, including Rodney A. Bienvenu,
Jr., the Companys principal executive officer, and Mark Finkel, the Companys principal financial
officer, of the effectiveness of the Companys disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is
defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15(d)-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the
Exchange Act) pursuant to Rule 13a-15(d) and 15(e) of the Exchange Act. Based upon that
evaluation, Messrs. Bienvenu and Finkel have each concluded that, as of September 30, 2006, the
Companys disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to
be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files, furnishes or submits under the Exchange Act
is recorded, processed, summarized and reported on a timely basis except as follows:
44
A material control weakness is a significant deficiency or a combination of significant
deficiencies that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement in
financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by employees in the normal
course of their work. As stated in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-KSB/A for the year ended
June 30, 2006 filed with the SEC on October 26, 2006, the management identified that one of the
Companys subsidiaries, Process Software, LLC (Process), had a material control weakness in its
revenue recognition process.
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with the American Institute of Certified Public
Accountants Statement of Position (SOP) 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition. Under SOP 97-2,
service revenue for maintenance contracts is deferred and recognized ratably over the term of the
agreement. Process sometimes started this ratable recognition earlier or later than the actual
contract date while it recognized the revenue over a shorter or longer period on other occasions.
These resulted in improper revenue recognition, either understating or overstating the revenue and
earnings. Process also demonstrated inconsistency in recording accounts receivable. The Company
usually invoices its customers either on receipt of a purchase order or on signing of a contract.
The invoiced amount is recorded as accounts receivable as of the invoice date. Process sometimes
recorded accounts receivable earlier or later than the actual invoice date, resulting in over or
understatement of accounts receivable. Process lacked the discipline and training of the personnel
who record its sales transactions. It also lacked the monitoring process to mitigate these
weaknesses.
These material weaknesses impacted our ability to properly record and report the financial
results during the fiscal year 2006. However, the Companys management is actively engaged in
remediation efforts to address this material weaknesses identified in our internal control over
financial reporting. The Company has transitioned sales invoicing responsibilities from
non-accounting personnel to accounting personnel better trained to process such documents. The
Company is also in the process of implementing a new accounting system, which the Company
anticipates will enable the Company to monitor ongoing activities without increasing staff level.
In the transition, the Company is performing additional revenue testing to identify
inconsistencies. As a result of our review, the Company has not yet resolved the revenue
recognition issues noted above. The total net adjustments as a result of this weakness was less
than $25,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2006.
There were no other significant changes in our internal control subsequent to the date of the
evaluation that are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial
reporting.
The Companys management believes that the Company will be able to improve our disclosure
controls and procedures and remedy the identified material weaknesses. 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, will be or have been detected. These inherent
limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that
breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented
by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management
override of the control. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain
assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design
will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions; over time,
control may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with
the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective
control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.
