NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

FOR THE NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2012 AND 2011

 

NOTE 1BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

These statements should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted. The operating results and cash flows for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2012, are not necessarily indicative of the results that will be achieved for the full fiscal year ending December 31, 2012 or for future periods.

 

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared without audit and reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of financial position and the results of operations for the interim periods. Preparing financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses. Estimates are used for, but not limited to, the accounting for the allowance for doubtful accounts, impairment costs, depreciation and amortization, sales returns and discounts, warranty costs, uncertain tax positions and the recoverability of deferred tax assets, stock compensation, contingencies and the fair value of assets and liabilities disclosed. Actual results and outcomes may differ from management’s estimates and assumptions. The statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures, normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP, have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such SEC rules and regulations.

 

The balance sheet at December 31, 2011 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements.

 

Consolidation

 

On April 30, 2011, Iveda Solutions, Inc. (the “Company”) completed its acquisition of Sole Vision Technologies (dba “MegaSys”), a company based in Taiwan. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and MegaSys (from May 1, 2011 through September 30, 2012). All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. See Note 8.

 

Going Concern

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. Since inception, the Company has generated an accumulated deficit from operations of approximately $13.6 million at September 30, 2012 and has used approximately $2.3 million in cash from operations through the current nine months ended September 30, 2012. As a result, a risk exists regarding our ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might result from this uncertainty.

 

7
 

 

A multi-step plan was adopted by management to enable the Company to continue to operate and begin to report operating profits. The highlights of that plan are:

 

  · The Company plans to seek additional equity and/or debt financing.

 

  · The Company shifted from direct to indirect sales channels. The Company has established and implemented a commission-based national manufacturer’s independent representative network in the last quarter. The network is designed to increase sales and marketing activities with minimal cost to the Company. The Company has  engaged with nine representative firms covering 41 U.S. states and the Caribbean. The names of the partner firms that have signed a partner agreement are as follows: Coaxial Systems Associates, Inc., GP Marketing, HMR Associates, IDMC Associates, Intech Sales, Langbaum & Associates, Milsk Company, R.W. Kunz & Associates and Warren & Associates. The representatives will bring  to the Company their network of security integrators and will recruit new integrators that will serve as  salespeople and installers of surveillance cameras.

 

  · In November, the Company hired two channel sales managers to generate leads for the reps and proactively manage the reps and integrators assigned to them.

 

  · In the immediate future, the Company will hire one strategic sales manager to generate large enterprise and government sales and at least one more later.

 

  · The Company will continue to directly service its large national and house accounts such as Pinkerton/Securitas, Telmex, and the Company’s  customers in Mexico.

 

Concentrations

 

Financial instruments, which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk, consist principally of cash and cash equivalents and trade accounts receivable.

 

Substantially all cash is deposited in two financial institutions, one in the United States and one in Taiwan. At times, amounts on deposit in the United States may be in excess of the FDIC insurance limit. Deposits in Taiwan financial institutions are insured by CDIC (Central Deposit Insurance Corporation) with maximum coverage of NTD 3 million. At times, amounts on deposit in Taiwan may be in excess of the CDIC insurance limit.

 

Accounts receivable are unsecured, and the Company is at risk to the extent such amount becomes uncollectible. The Company performs periodic credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition and generally does not require collateral. Revenue from one customer represented approximately 57% of total revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, and approximately 30% of total accounts receivable at September 30, 2012.

 

Intangible Assets and Goodwill

 

Intangible assets consist of trademarks and other intangible assets associated with the purchase price allocation of MegaSys. Such assets are being amortized over their estimated useful lives ranging from six months to ten years. Other Intangible Assets are fully amortized as of September 30, 2012. Future amortization of Intangible Assets is as follows:

 

Trademarks     
2012  $5,000 
2013   20,000 
2014   20,000 
2015   20,000 
Thereafter   106,666 
Total  $ 171, 666 

 

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price of MegaSys over the net assets acquired. Goodwill is tested annually for impairment or more frequently if indicators of impairment exist.

 

8
 

 

Accordingly, the Company has recorded an impairment of $955,710 in the Statement of Operations in the year ended 2011.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

Fair value estimates discussed herein are based upon certain market assumptions and pertinent information available to management as of September 30, 2012. The respective carrying values of certain on-balance-sheet financial instruments approximate their fair values. These financial instruments include cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses, convertible notes and amounts due to related parties. Fair values were assumed to approximate carrying values for these financial instruments because they are short term in nature and their carrying amounts approximate fair values or they are receivable or payable on demand.

 

Segment Information

 

The Company conducts operations in various geographic regions outside the United States. The operations and the customer base conducted in the foreign countries are similar to the United States operations. The net revenues and net assets (liabilities) for other significant geographic regions outside the United States are as follows:

 

   Net Revenues   Net Assets 
         
United States  $401,068   $1,435,146 
Asia  $1,551,263   $566,109 
Mexico  $200,161    - 

 

Furthermore, due to operations in various geographic locations, the Company is susceptible to changes in national, regional and local economic conditions, demographic trends, consumer confidence in the economy and discretionary spending priorities that may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s future operations and results.

 

The Company is required to collect certain taxes and fees from customers on behalf of government agencies and remit these back to the applicable governmental agencies on a periodic basis. These taxes and fees are legal assessments to the customer, for which the Company has a legal obligation to act as a collection agent. Because the Company does not retain these taxes and fees, the Company does not include such amounts in revenue. The Company records a liability when the amounts are collected and relieves the liability when payments are made to the applicable governmental agencies.

 

The Company operates as two reportable business segments in defined in ASC 280, "Segment Reporting." Each company has a chief operating decision maker and management personnel review which review their company’s performance as it relates to revenue, operating profit and operating expenses.

 New Accounting Pronouncements

 

In May 2011, the FASB issued a new accounting standard update, which amends the fair value measurement guidance and includes some enhanced disclosure requirements. The most significant change in disclosures is an expansion of the information required for Level 3 measurements based on unobservable inputs. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. This standard did not have an impact on our consolidated results of operations and financial position when adopted on January 1, 2012.

 

In June 2011, the FASB modified the presentation of comprehensive income in the financia1 statements. The revised standard requires an entity to present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income, and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements and must be applied retrospectively. This standard eliminates the current option to report other comprehensive income and its components in the statement of changes in equity. The revised standard does not change the items that must be reported in other comprehensive income or when an item of other comprehensive income must be reclassified to net income. The modification of the standard did not have an effect on our consolidated results of operations and financial position, when adopted, on December 31, 2011.

 

In September 2011, the FASB issued an amendment to an existing accounting standard, which provides entities an option to perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether further impairment testing on goodwill is necessary. Specifically, an entity has the option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is necessary to perform the current two-step test. If an entity believes, as a result of its qualitative assessment, that it is more-likely-than-not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, the quantitative impairment test is required. Otherwise, no further testing is required. This standard is effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment test performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. Our adoption did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

 

In July 2012, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2012-02, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment. This ASU states that an entity has the option first to assess qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events and circumstances indicates that it is more likely than not that the indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired. If, after assessing the totality of events and circumstances, an entity concludes that it is not more likely than not that the indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired, then the entity is not required to take further action. However, if an entity concludes otherwise, then it is required to determine the fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible asset and perform the quantitative impairment test by comparing the fair value with the carrying amount in accordance with Codification Subtopic 350-30, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other General Intangibles Other than Goodwill. Under the guidance in this ASU,an entity also has the option to bypass the qualitative assessment for any indefinite-lived intangible asset in any period and proceed directly to performing the quantitative impairment test. An entity will be able to resume performing the qualitative assessment in any subsequent period. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual and interim impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012. Early adoption is permitted, including for annual and interim impairment tests performed as of a date before July 27, 2012, if a public entity's financial statements for the most recent annual or interim period have not yet been issued or, for nonpublic entities, have not yet been made available for issuance.

NOTE 7EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE

 

The following table provides a reconciliation of the numerators and denominators reflected in the basic and diluted earnings per share computations.

 

Basic EPS is computed by dividing reported earnings available to stockholders by the weighted average shares outstanding. The Company had net losses for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, and the effect of including dilutive securities in the earnings per common share would have been anti-dilutive. Accordingly, all options and warrants to purchase common shares (totaling 6,500,949 potential shares at September 30, 2012) were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011.

Overview

 

Iveda Solutions, Inc. began operations on January 24, 2005, under the name IntelaSight, Inc., a Washington corporation doing business as Iveda Solutions (“IntelaSight”). On October 15, 2009, IntelaSight became a wholly-owned operating subsidiary of Iveda Corporation (formerly known as Charmed Homes, Inc.), a Nevada corporation, through a merger. All Company operations were conducted through IntelaSight until December 31, 2010, at which time IntelaSight merged with and into Iveda Corporation, which changed its name to Iveda Solutions, Inc.

 

Iveda Solutions is part of the growing $41-billion world video surveillance market. The Company delivers enterprise-class centralized video hosting and real-time video surveillance through cloud computing. The Company installs video surveillance equipment, primarily for security purposes, and provides video hosting, archiving, and real-time remote surveillance services with a proprietary reporting system, DSR™ (Daily Surveillance Report), to a variety of businesses and organizations. By consolidating computer power into a single location at the server level, the Company creates efficiencies due to economies of scale leveraging cloud computing, which offers more features and flexibility compared to traditional box systems. The Company also believes that cloud computing addresses the environmental impact of massive number of servers being used for video surveillance. By hosting and storing its customers’ video in the cloud, customers do not need to purchase and maintain servers, DVRs, and software, thus reducing carbon footprint.

 

The Company’s robust enterprise-class video hosting architecture utilizes data centers that allow scalability and flexibility, as well as centralized video management, access and storage. Iveda Solutions’ open-source technology offers interoperability with existing camera systems and enables multiple, simultaneous access without degradation of video quality. The Company’s video hosting solution enhances the functionality of surveillance cameras through a proactive real-time surveillance service rather than an event or trigger-based service and by utilizing video for operational efficiencies.

 

Iveda Solutions’ current operations generate revenues in the United States, Asia, and Mexico from a client base that includes law enforcement agencies, municipalities, and companies. Iveda Solutions’ growth is dependent upon the continued development of a reliable recurring service-revenue business model.

 

Iveda Solutions has raised approximately $12 million from investors through private placement offerings between 2005 and the present. The Company has used the funds to create a business model based on recurring revenues, build a state-of-the-art “Managed Video as a Service” infrastructure, develop a reseller distribution channel, and build a solid team of professionals. The Company is currently building its U.S. sales organization to support the rep network and in the process of expanding its distribution channel in Asia. The Company is also developing new products to enhance its current offerings and partnering with inter-cloud providers to reduce cost in delivering its services.

 

In April 2009, Iveda Solutions was approved as a Qualified Anti-Terrorism Technology provider under a formal SAFETY Act Designation by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS). Iveda Solutions is the first, and to our knowledge the only, company currently offering real-time IP video hosting and remote surveillance services with a SAFETY Act Designation.

 

In April 2011, Iveda Solutions completed the acquisition of MEGAsys Taiwan. Founded in 1998, MEGAsys designs and assembles electronic security and surveillance products, software, and services. Iveda Solutions leverages MEGAsys’ relationships with manufacturing, development, and distribution entities in Asia, potentially reducing costs and improving services and capabilities. To date, MEGAsys has primarily generated revenue through one-time sales, installation and integration of equipment and hardware to large government projects. In the last year, MEGAsys has been investing in cloud video infrastructure in Taiwan, which management anticpates will allow MEGAsys to begin building a recurring revenue business. MegaSys does not own any proprietary technology or intellectual property other than certain trademarks in Taiwan used in its business.

 

In October 2011, Iveda Solutions signed a strategic collaboration agreement with Telmex, U.S.A., a subsidiary of the Mexico-based Telmex, the 4th largest telecommunications company in the world. Telmex U.S.A. Sales training is underway. At the same time, a homologation process in Telmex Mexico is being conducted. Telmex has presence in the U.S., Latin America, Europe, and Africa.

 

In July 2012, Pinkerton, a leading global provider of security, investigations and risk management services, announced The Vigilance Federation (TVF), which offers an integrated bundled service that brings enterprise-class cloud services to its customers’ security missions. Pinkerton chose Iveda Solutions to provide cloud-based video surveillance services, crucial to TVF’s mission.

 

The Company recently introduced Pinpoint, a global positioning/mapping and video management system consolidation that is used in the Pinkerton-led Vigilance Federation.

 

New Accounting Pronouncements

 

In May 2011, the FASB issued a new accounting standard update, which amends the fair value measurement guidance and includes some enhanced disclosure requirements. The most significant change in disclosures is an expansion of the information required for Level 3 measurements based on unobservable inputs. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. This standard did not have an impact on our consolidated results of operations and financial position when adopted on January 1, 2012.

 

In June 2011, the FASB modified the presentation of comprehensive income in the financial statements. The revised standard requires an entity to present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements and must be applied retrospectively. This standard eliminates the current option to report other comprehensive income and its components in the statement of changes in equity. The revised standard does not change the items that must be reported in other comprehensive income or when an item of other comprehensive income must be reclassified to net income. Our adoption of the revised standard did not have an effect on our consolidated results of operations and financial position.

 

In September 2011, the FASB issued an amendment to an existing accounting standard, which provides entities an option to perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether further impairment testing on goodwill is necessary. Specifically, an entity has the option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is necessary to perform the current two-step test. If an entity believes, as a result of its qualitative assessment, that it is more-likely-than-not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, the quantitative impairment test is required. Otherwise, no further testing is required. This standard is effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment test performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. Our adoption did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In July 2012, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2012-02, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment. This ASU states that an entity has the option first to assess qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events and circumstances indicates that it is more likely than not that the indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired. If, after assessing the totality of events and circumstances, an entity concludes that it is not more likely than not that the indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired, then the entity is not required to take further action. However, if an entity concludes otherwise, then it is required to determine the fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible asset and perform the quantitative impairment test by comparing the fair value with the carrying amount in accordance with Codification Subtopic 350-30, Intagibles-Goodwill and Other, General Intangibles Other than Goodwill. Under the guidance in this ASU,an entity also has the option to bypass the qualitative assessment for any indefinite-lived intangible asset in any period and proceed directly to performing the quantitative impairment test. An entity will be able to resume performing the qualitative assessment in any subsequent period. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual and interim impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012. Early adoption is permitted, including for annual and interim impairment tests performed as of a date before July 27, 2012, if a public entity's financial statements for the most recent annual or interim period have not yet been issued or, for nonpublic entities, have not yet been made available for issuance.

 

Results of Operations

 

Revenue. We recorded revenue of $381,173 for the three months ended September 30, 2012, compared to $589,307 for the three months ended September 30, 2011, a decrease of $208,134 or 35%. In the third fiscal quarter of 2012, our recurring service revenue was $129,329 or 34% of revenue, and our equipment sales and installation revenue was $203,237 or 53% of revenue, compared to recurring service revenue of $219,333 or 34% of revenue, and equipment sales and installation revenue of $319,345 or 54% of revenue for the same period in 2011.

 

The decrease in revenue primarily was due to the Company transition of moving from a direct sales model to an indirect sales channel model. As announced in mid-June of this year, the Company is developing a national network of independent manufacturers’ representatives to market its products and services. For the past eight years, while building its cloud video surveillance infrastructure, the Company has been selling its products and services to end users directly. The Company is now focusing on building a solid indirect sales channel. This development of the national network sales channel was completed during the third quarter, but sales efforts and in turn revenues were impacted as this transition was made.

 

We recorded revenue of $2,152,492 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, compared to $1,449,025 for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, an increase of $703,467 or 49%. In the first nine months of 2012, our recurring service revenue was $476,391 or 22% of revenue, and our equipment sales and installation revenue was $1,561,238 or 73% of revenue, compared to recurring service revenue of $454,863 or 31% of revenue, and equipment sales and installation revenue of $914,057 or 63% of revenue for the same fiscal period in 2011. The increase in equipment sales and installation revenue was due to a large water project awarded to our subsidiary in Taiwan.

 

Cost of Revenue. Total cost of revenue was $322,824 (85% of revenues; gross margin of 15%) for the three months ended September 30, 2012, compared to $472,211 (80% of revenue; gross margin of 20%) for the three months ended September 30, 2011, a decrease of $149,387 or 32%. The decrease of cost of revenue and decrease of gross margin was primarily due to the decrease of equipment sales and installation revenue, which is Megasys’ primary source of revenue. Equipment sales and installation normally garner lower gross margin compared to recurring service revenues.

  

Total cost of revenue was $1,729,001 (80% of revenues; gross margin of 20%) for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, compared to $1,110,875 (77% of revenues; gross margin of 23%) for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, an increase of $618,126 or 56%. The slight decrease in gross margin for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 was due to a 127% increase in product sales from MegaSys. These product sales carry a lower gross margin rate resulting in a lower gross margin on a consolidated basis.

 

Operating Expenses. Operating expenses were $867,958 for the three months ended September 30, 2012, compared to $778,287 for the three months ended September 30, 2011, an increase of $89,671 or 12%.

 

Operating expenses were $2,854,794 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, compared to $2,611,916 for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, an increase of $242,878 or 9%. The slight increase in operating expenses in 2012 is consistent with 2011 and is favorable considering revenue increased 49%.

 

The increase in operating expenses both in Q3 2012 and YTD 2012 over comparable periods in 2011 was primarily related to increased depreciation expenses and increased sales/marketing expenses, both of which are the result of increased investment in the company to spur and support further growth in the company’s future. These strategic investments were in both top-line revenue growth as well as internal infrastructure and are required to meet the Company’s long-term corporate goals.

Loss from Operations. As a result of the decreases in revenues, the loss from operations increased to $809,609 for the three months ended September 30, 2012, compared to $661,191 for the three months ended September 30, 2011, an increase in loss of $148,418 or 22%.

 

As a result of the overall decrease in revenue and in turn gross margins, the loss from operations increased to $2,431,303 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, compared to $2,273,766 for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, an increase in loss of $157,537 or 7%.

 

Other Expense-Net. Other expense-net was $24,495 for the three months ended September 30, 2012, compared to $1,463 for the three months ended September 30, 2011, an increase of $23,032 or 1,574%. This is due to increased interest expenses.

 

Other expense-net was $46,280 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, compared to $21,283 for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, an increase of $24,997 or 117%. This is due to increased interest expenses. 

 

Net Loss. The increase of $171,450 or 26% in the net loss to $834,104 for the three months ended September 30, 2012, from $662,654 for the three months ended September 30, 2011, was primarily the effect of reduced revenue and increased operating expenses in 2012.

 

The increase of $187,421 or 8% in the net loss to $2,477,583 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, from $2,290,162 for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, was primarily the effect of reduced gross profit and increase in operating expenses.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

We had cash and cash equivalents of $575,296 on September 30, 2012 in our foreign business and $170,391 in our domestic business. The decrease in cash from $850,364 as of December 31, 2011 was due to approximately $2.3 million used in operations, $387,000 spent towards capital expenditures to expand our infrastructure for a major customer, offset by $2.5 million raised in debt and equity. There are no legal or economic factors that materially impact our ability to transfer funds between our domestic and foreign businesses.

 

Net cash used in operating activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2012, and for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, was $2,260,455 and $1,878,531 respectively. Cash used in operating activities for those periods consisted primarily of the net loss from operations.

 

Net cash used in and provided by investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, and the nine months ended September 30, 2011, was $387,064 and $688,692 respectively. The large use of cash in investing activities in 2012 was due to increased capital expenditures to expand our infrastructure for a new major customer.

 

We have experienced significant operating losses since our inception. At December 31, 2011, we had approximately $8.5 million in net operating loss carry forwards available for federal and state income tax purposes. We did not recognize any benefit from these operating loss carry forwards for the year ended 2011 or through the third quarter of 2012. Our operating loss carry forwards expire starting in 2025 and continuing through 2031.

Our capital expenditures and working capital requirements could increase depending on our operating results and other adjustments to our operating plan as may be needed to respond to competition or unexpected events. We believe that our cash on hand as of September 30, 2012 is insufficient to meet our anticipated cash needs for working capital and capital expenditures for the short term. We continually evaluate our working capital needs, and we are seeking to obtain additional working capital through debt and equity offerings. There can be no assurance that additional funds will be available on acceptable terms. In the event that additional funds are not available on acceptable terms, we may be required to reduce the scope of, or cease, operations.

 

If we are unable to quickly increase our sales, we will need to raise additional capital during the year and may be required to reduce labor expenses to maintain our existing operations.

 

Revenue from one customer represented approximately 57% of total revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, and approximately 30% of total accounts receivable at September 30, 2012. No other customers represented greater than 10% of total revenues in the nine months ended September 30, 2012. There are some customer receivables that have aged over 120 days. These customers have been identified and an adequate allowance for doubtful accounts has been set up to offset the risk of uncollectible accounts.

 

Our U.S. operation has one customer receivable aged over 120 days totaling $13,654. The terms for payment for our U.S. operations are “due upon receipt”. Therefore, an allowance for doubtful accounts for this receivable was recorded with respect to our U.S. operations.

 

Our Taiwan operations through MegaSys have 65% of gross accounts receivables aged over 120 days as of September 30, 2012. The payment terms vary based on the timing of the completion of the entire project. MegaSys generally does not control the time of payment because MegaSys is only one of many companies involved in these projects. In general, payment takes place within one year of commencing the project, except that 5% of the total payment is retained and released one year after the completion of the project. Excluding such retained amounts, MegaSys provides an allowance for doubtful accounts for any receivables that will not be paid within one year. Management has set up a 14%, or $103,979, allowance for doubtful accounts as of the quarter ended September 30, 2012. Management deems the rest to be collectible based on the nature of the customer contracts and past experience with similar customers.

 

Substantially all cash is deposited in two financial institutions, one in the United States and one in Taiwan. At times, amounts on deposit in the United States may be in excess of the FDIC insurance limit. Deposits in Taiwan financial institutions are insured by CDIC (Central Deposit Insurance Corporation) with maximum coverage of NTD 3 million. At times, amounts on deposit in Taiwan may be in excess of the CDIC insurance limit.

 

Recent Developments

 

In October 2012, the Company sold 75,000 shares of Company Common Stock at a purchase price of $1.00 per share in four private placement transactions from four individual investors.

 

These issuances were made pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, Regulation D, and Rule 506 promulgated thereunder. The facts relied upon by the Company to use this exemption were the following: (a) the Company did not use general solicitation or advertising to market the securities; (b) the issuances were only made to accredited investors; and (c) the Company informed the investors that they would receive “restricted” securities.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements. During the reporting period, the Company had no off-balance sheet arrangements, as such term is defined in Item 303(a)(4) of Regulation S-K.

 

ITEM 3.QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

 

As a smaller reporting company, the Company is not required to provide Part I, Item 3 disclosures in this Quarterly Report.

 

ITEM 4.CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), as of September 30, 2012. Based on our evaluation, our management has concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report were effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and that the information required to be disclosed by us in such reports is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

In August 2012, we hired a CFO who has experience in SEC reporting and disclosures. The Company now has two employees knowledgeable in SEC accounting and reporting, which permits the proper segregation of duties necessary for accurate and timely financial reporting. The Company is in the process of implementing additional controls and processes involving both of our financial personnel in order to ensure all transactions are accounted for and disclosed in an accurate and a timely manner. There have not been any other changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during the most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting for our business operations.

  

Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls

 

Our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and internal controls will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within Iveda have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of a 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 or Board override of the control.

 

22
 

 

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, controls 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.
