Overview

The increasing demand for wireless services has become the driving force behind the recent growth in the global communications industry. Wireless technology has advanced substantially to the point where wireless networks have proven to be an effective alternative to land line networks, a key factor in its broad acceptance. The advantages of wireless over land line communication are apparent in the aspects of mobility, capacity, cost, and deployment. The use of dedicated wireless networks for specified applications has improved productivity for individuals and organizations alike. We provide design-build engineering services for specialty communication systems, which are dedicated wireless networks for specified applications and for wireless infrastructure, which encompasses cellular networks for wireless carriers. Our range of services includes site design, spectrum analysis, product integration, structured cabling, electrical work, trenching, construction, testing, project management and maintenance. Because we are technology and vendor independent, we can integrate multiple products and services across a variety of communication requirements. This ability gives our customers the flexibility to obtain the most appropriate solution for their communication needs on a cost effective basis. Our customers include corporations, government entities and educational institutions.

With twelve offices across the United States and one office in China, we provide our services to our customers nationwide and internationally. Our rapid revenue growth since we commenced operations in November 2001 is attributable to a combination of acquisitions and organic growth. For the fiscal year ended April 30, 2007, we generated revenues of approximately $70 million, an increase of 34.2% from the fiscal year ended April 30, 2006. Our backlog at April 30, 2007 was approximately $34.9 million.

Industry Background

Worldwide use of wireless communications has grown rapidly. According to a Telecommunications Industry Association report, in 2006, the domestic corporate, government and education sectors spent an estimated $8.8 billion on the deployment of wireless networks and expenditures are growing at 25% per year. In 2006, the international corporate, government and education sectors spent an estimated $28.1 billion on the deployment of wireless networks and expenditures are growing at 33% per year. According to a report issued by The Cellular Telecommunications & Internet Association (CTIA), wireless carriers spent $33 billion on capital investments and expenditures are growing at 14% per year. The growing numbers of wireless users has fueled the growth of the wireless services industry.

Advantages of Wireless Technology

Various improvements in wireless technologies have resulted in an environment where wireless solutions provide a number of key advantages over traditional land line solutions, including:

 
Mobility. Mobile communications and computing are among the driving forces behind the demand for wireless connectivity. The increased functionality and declining cost of mobile wireless devices has fueled further growth. Mobile connectivity has led to greater productivity as organizations transmit data and gather information from remote staff and locations where land line connectivity is unavailable. Such mobile connectivity has created significant cost savings in data collection, increased responsiveness, enabled greater access to enterprise resources and improved controls.

 
Capacity. Current technology allows wireless transmission with capacity, quality and reliability superior to land line and comparable to fiber. For example, current radio technology is capable of two-way data transfer at rates up to 1 gigabits per second, allowing wireless networks to transmit content as quickly as over fiber in most instances.

 
Cost. Wireless networks cost less than comparable landline networks both to deploy and to operate. Wireless deployment is less expensive because the installation of a landline network is more labor-intensive, requires more time and may involve substantial right-of-way expenditures. We expect the main cost component of wireless networks, equipment, to continue to decline as technology advances and production volumes increase. Operating costs of wireless networks are also lower because landlines require extensive troubleshooting to execute repairs. In addition, wireless networks bypass local service providers, eliminating recurring monthly charges.

 
Deployment. Because enterprise wireless networks do not require negotiating rights of way, substantial infrastructure engineering, time-consuming third party coordination efforts or additional FCC licensing, they can be deployed quickly and less expensively. Rapid deployment allows organizations to install networks more closely in line with immediate needs rather than having to commit to time-consuming engineering projects in anticipation of future growth.

Industry Trends

The demand for wireless networks can be tied to the following key trends:

 
Increased security of wireless data transmission;

 
Introduction of new technologies;

 
Increasing accessibility and affordability of wireless mobile devices; and

 
Increased capacity of wireless networks, making them a legitimate substitute for land line communications.

The advantages gained through wireless communications have expanded the scope of possible applications, creating demand for specialty communication systems.

Business Strategy

Our goal is to become a recognized leader in the design and deployment of wireless networks for specialty communication systems and wireless infrastructure. We have designed and deployed many systems incorporating innovative uses of wireless technology in various vertical markets. Our strategy focuses on both organic growth and the pursuit of acquisitions that add to our engineering capacity and geographic coverage. Specifically, we will endeavor to:

 
5



 
  Provide additional services for our customers. Each acquisition we make expands our customer base. We seek to expand these new customer relationships by making them aware of the diverse products and services we offer. We believe that providing these customers the full range of our services will lead to new projects or revenue opportunities and increased profitability.
     
 
Maintain and expand our focus in vertical markets. We have deployed successful, innovative wireless solutions for multiple customers in a number of vertical markets, such as public safety, healthcare, security and gaming. We will continue to seek additional customers in these targeted vertical markets who can benefit from our expertise and look for new ways in which we can deploy wireless networks to enhance productivity within these markets. We also look to expand our vertical market coverage and include these new markets as appropriate.

 
Strengthen our relationships with technology providers. We will continue to strengthen the relationships we have with technology providers. These companies rely on us to deploy their technology products within their customer base. We have worked with these providers in testing new equipment they develop and our personnel maintain certifications on our technology providers’ products. We also look for innovative products that can be of benefit to our customers, and endeavor to establish similar relationships with new technology providers as part of our commitment to offering the most advanced solutions.

 
Seek strategic acquisitions. We will continue to look for additional acquisitions of compatible businesses that can be assimilated into our organization, expand our geographic coverage and add accretive earnings to our business. Our preferred acquisition candidates will have experience with specialty communication systems. Since April 30, 2007, we have signed letters of intent to acquire Major Electric, Inc. and Max Engineering LLC. We expect these acquisitions to close by August 1, 2007, subject to completion of due diligence and the execution of definitive agreements.

Services

We operate in two segments, specialty communication systems and wireless infrastructure services. Specialty communication systems are wireless networks designed to improve productivity for a specified application by communicating data, voice or video information in situations where land line networks are non-existent, more difficult to deploy or too expensive. Wireless infrastructure services include the engineering, installation, integration and maintenance of wireless carrier equipment. For the fiscal year ended April 30, 2007, specialty communication systems represented approximately 81% of our total revenue, and wireless infrastructure services represented approximately 19% of our total revenue. For the fiscal year ended April 30, 2006, specialty communication systems represented approximately 82% of our total revenue, and wireless infrastructure services represented approximately 18% of our total revenue.

Specialty Communication Systems

The types of specialty communication systems that we implement are used for mobile computing and general wireless connectivity purposes. In mobile computing, the most popular use is the transfer of data, voice or video from a server to a mobile device, which can be achieved through the following applications:

 
Asset tracking, which is a wireless network that monitors the location of mobile assets such as vehicles or stationary assets such as equipment;

 
Telematics, which are instructions sent through a wireless network that controls a device such as a slot machine or traffic signal; and

 
Telemetry, which is the acquisition of data from a measuring device, such as devices used at a water treatment plant to maintain the integrity of drinking water.

In general wireless connectivity, we design and deploy networks that allow entities to reduce their dependence on high cost leased land lines. We have the engineering expertise to utilize any facet of wireless technology or a combination of various wireless technologies to engineer a cost effective network for a customer’s wireless communication requirement. In addition, the design and deployment of a specialty communication system is a comprehensive effort that requires an in-depth knowledge of radio frequency engineering so that the wireless network is free from interference with other signals and amplified sufficiently to carry data, voice or video with speed and accuracy.

We are technology and vendor independent. As wireless networks evolve, customers are increasingly showing a tendency to select independent service providers, allowing our independence to become an important differentiator. As open standards continue to supplant vendor proprietary protocols and products in the marketplace, we believe our independent position will allow us to capture an increasing share of the specialty communication systems market. We believe that the strength of our experience in the design and deployment of these specialty communication systems gives us a competitive advantage and has supported our rapid growth, both organically and through acquisitions.

Wireless Infrastructure Services

We provide wireless infrastructure services to major wireless carriers. Wireless carriers are focused on building and expanding their networks, increasing capacity, upgrading their networks with new technologies and maintaining their existing infrastructure. Our engineers install, test and commission base station equipment at the carrier cell site, including installations of new equipment, technology upgrades, equipment modifications and reconfigurations. These services may also include tower construction. The range of infrastructure services includes the following:

 
Installation, testing and commissioning of base station equipment, which is the installation of radio frequency equipment inside the shelter at a cell site, and testing to ensure that the equipment is operating prior to cell site activation;

 
Equipment modification and reconfiguration, which involves replacing old equipment with new equipment, re-routing cables, and re-locating equipment at the cell site;

 
Network modifications, which refers to work done on existing cell sites to increase capacity or change the direction of sectors or antennas;

 
Sectorization, which is the installation of antennas to existing cell towers to increase the capacity of the cell site; and

 
Maintenance, which includes antenna maintenance to replace damaged antennas, installing tower lighting control panels or sensors, or repairing damaged shelters.

Project Characteristics

Our contracts are service-based projects providing installation and engineering services, which include providing labor, materials and equipment for a complete installation. The projects are generally staffed with a project manager who manages multiple projects and a field supervisor who is responsible for an individual project. Depending on contract scope, project staff size could range from two to four engineers to as high as 25 to 30 engineers. A project may also include subcontracted services along with our direct labor.

The project manager coordinates the daily activities of direct labor and subcontractors and works closely with our field supervisors. Project managers are responsible for job costing, change order tracking, billing, and customer relations. Executive management monitors the performance of all projects regularly through work-in-progress reporting or percentage-of-completion, and reviews this information with each project manager.

Our projects are executed on a contract basis. These contracts can be awarded through a competitive bidding process, an informal bidding process, or a simple quote request. Upon award of a contract, there can often be a delay of several months before work begins. The active work time on our projects can range in duration from a few days up to as long as two years. Once services under the contract commence, our average project length is approximately two months.

Customers

We serve a variety of corporate, government and education customers in various market segments. In our specialty communication systems segment, we believe our design and deployment of innovative wireless networks specific to the needs of customers in certain vertical markets has brought us recognition. In our wireless infrastructure segment, our customers are major wireless carriers.

For the fiscal years ended April 30, 2007 and 2006, we had revenue from a customer, Genentech, of approximately $12.7 million or 18.1% and $7.6 million or 14.5%, respectively. In addition, for the fiscal years ended April 30, 2007 and 2006, we had revenue from a customer, Sprint Nextel, of approximately $8.2 million or 11.7% and $10.8 million or 20.8%, respectively.

Sales and Marketing

We have dedicated sales and marketing resources that develop opportunities within our existing customer base, and identify new customers through our vertical market focus and our relationships with technology providers. In addition, our project managers devote a portion of their time to sales and marketing. When an opportunity is identified, we assess the opportunity to determine our level of interest in participation. After qualifying an opportunity, our sales and marketing resources work with the internal project management teams to prepare a cost estimate and contract proposal for a particular project. We keep track of bids submitted and bids that are awarded. Once a bid is awarded to us, it is assigned to a project management team and included in our backlog.

Backlog

As of April 30, 2007, we had a backlog of unfilled orders of approximately $34.9 million compared to approximately $15.9 million at April 30, 2006. We define backlog as the value of work-in-hand to be provided for customers as of a specific date where the following conditions are met (with the exception of engineering change orders): (i) the price of the work to be done is fixed; (ii) the scope of the work to be done is fixed, both in definition and amount; and (iii) there is a written contract, purchase order, agreement or other documentary evidence which represents a firm commitment by the customer to pay us for the work to be performed. These backlog amounts are based on contract values and purchase orders and may not result in actual receipt of revenue in the originally anticipated period or at all. We have experienced variances in the realization of our backlog because of project delays or cancellations resulting from external market factors and economic factors beyond our control and we may experience such delays or cancellations in the future. Backlog does not include new firm commitments that may be awarded to us by our customers from time to time in future periods. These new project awards could be started and completed in this same future period. Accordingly, our backlog does not necessarily represent the total revenue that could be earned by us in future periods.

Competition

We face competition from numerous service organizations, ranging from small independent regional firms to larger firms servicing national markets. We also face competition from existing or prospective customers that employ in-house personnel to perform some of the same types of services that we provide. Historically, there have been relatively few significant barriers to entry into the markets in which we operate, and, as a result, any organization that has adequate financial resources and access to technical expertise may become a competitor. At the present time, we believe that there are no dominant competitors in the specialty communication systems or wireless infrastructure segment but we would classify Tetra Tech Incorporated (NASDAQ-TTEK) and Black Box Corporation (NASDAQ-BBOX) as specialty communication systems competitors and LCC International Incorporated (NASDAQ-LCCI) as a wireless infrastructure services competitor.

The principal competitive advantage in these markets is the ability to deliver results on time and within budget. Other factors of importance include reputation, accountability, staffing capability, project management expertise, industry experience and competitive pricing. In addition, expertise in new and evolving technologies has become increasingly important. We believe that the ability to design, deploy and maintain all facets of wireless technology for various vertical sectors gives us a competitive advantage. We maintain a trained and certified staff of engineers that have developed proven methodologies for the design and deployment of wireless networks, and can provide these services on an international basis. In addition, we offer both a union and non-union workforce that allows us to bid on either labor requirement, creating yet another competitive advantage.

However, our ability to compete effectively also depends on a number of additional factors that are beyond our control. These factors include competitive pricing for similar services, the ability and willingness of the competition to finance projects on favorable terms, the ability of customers to perform the services internally and the responsiveness of our competitors to customer needs.

Employees

As of April 30, 2007, we employed 361 full time employees, of whom 239 are project engineers, 27 are project managers, 89 are in administration and sales and six are executives. A majority of the project engineers are represented by the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers. We also have non-union employees. We believe our relations with all of our employees are good. We have approximately 106 union employees. A contract with 15 union employees expired on May 31, 2007. A new contract with this union has been negotiated and is in the process of completion. A contract with six union employees expires on September 30, 2007. A contract with 85 union employees expires on November 30, 2008.

ITEM 1A - RISK FACTORS

Our success is dependent on growth in the deployment of wireless networks, and to the extent that such growth slows down, our revenues may decrease and our ability to continue operating profitably may be harmed.

Customers are constantly re-evaluating their network deployment plans in response to trends in the capital markets, changing perceptions regarding industry growth, the adoption of new wireless technologies, increasing pricing competition and general economic conditions in the United States and internationally. If the rate of network deployment growth slows and customers reduce their capital investments in wireless technology or fail to expand their networks, our revenues and profits could be reduced.

We have a limited history of profitability which may not continue.

While we had net income of approximately $4.6 million for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2007, we incurred a net loss of approximately $1.6 million for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2006. There can be no assurance that we will sustain profitability or generate positive cash flow from operating activities in the future. If we cannot achieve operating profitability or positive cash flow from operating activities, we may not be able to meet our working capital requirements. If we are unable to meet our working capital requirements, we may need to reduce or cease all or part of our operations.

If we fail to accurately estimate costs associated with our fixed-price contracts using percentage-of-completion, our actual results may vary from our assumptions, which may reduce our profitability or impair our financial performance.

A substantial portion of our revenue is derived from fixed price contracts. Under these contracts, we set the price of our services on an aggregate basis and assume the risk that the costs associated with our performance may be greater than we anticipated. We recognize revenue and profit on these contracts as the work on these projects progresses on a percentage-of-completion basis. Under the percentage-of-completion method, contracts in process are valued at cost plus accrued profits less earned revenues and progress payments on uncompleted contracts.

The percentage-of-completion method therefore relies on estimates of total expected contract costs. These costs may be affected by a variety of factors, such as lower than anticipated productivity, conditions at work sites differing materially from what was anticipated at the time we bid on the contract and higher costs of materials and labor. Contract revenue and total cost estimates are reviewed and revised monthly as the work progresses, such that adjustments to profit resulting from revisions are made cumulative to the date of the revision. Adjustments are reflected in contract revenue for the fiscal period affected by these revised estimates. If estimates of costs to complete long-term contracts indicate a loss, we immediately recognize the full amount of the estimated loss. Such adjustments and accrued losses could result in reduced profitability and liquidity.

Failure to properly manage projects may result in unanticipated costs or claims.

Our wireless network engagements may involve large scale, highly complex projects. The quality of our performance on such projects depends in large part upon our ability to manage the relationship with our customers, and to effectively manage the project and deploy appropriate resources, including third-party contractors and our own personnel, in a timely manner. Any defects or errors or failure to meet customers’ expectations could result in claims for substantial damages against us. Our contracts generally limit our liability for damages that arise from negligent acts, errors, mistakes or omissions in rendering services to our customers. However, we cannot be sure that these contractual provisions will protect us from liability for damages in the event we are sued. In addition, in certain instances, we guarantee customers that we will complete a project by a scheduled date or that the network will achieve certain performance standards. If the project or network experiences a performance problem, we may not be able to recover the additional costs we would incur, which could exceed revenues realized from a project.

The industry in which we operate has relatively low barriers to entry and increased competition could result in margin erosion, which would make profitability even more difficult to sustain.

Other than the technical skills required in our business, the barriers to entry in our business are relatively low. We do not have any intellectual property rights to protect our business methods and business start-up costs do not pose a significant barrier to entry. The success of our business is dependent on our employees, customer relations and the successful performance of our services. If we face increased competition as a result of new entrants in our markets, we could experience reduced operating margins and loss of market share and brand recognition.

Our business depends upon our ability to keep pace with the latest technological changes, and our failure to do so could make us less competitive in our industry.

The market for our services is characterized by rapid change and technological improvements. Failure to respond in a timely and cost-effective way to these technological developments may result in serious harm to our business and operating results. We have derived, and we expect to continue to derive, a substantial portion of our revenues from deploying wireless networks that are based upon today’s leading technologies and that are capable of adapting to future technologies. As a result, our success will depend, in part, on our ability to develop and market service offerings that respond in a timely manner to the technological advances of our customers, evolving industry standards and changing preferences.


 
9


Our failure to attract and retain engineering personnel or maintain appropriate staffing levels could adversely affect our business.

Our success depends upon our attracting and retaining skilled engineering personnel. Competition for such skilled personnel in our industry is high and at times can be extremely intense, especially for engineers and project managers, and we cannot be certain that we will be able to hire sufficiently qualified personnel in adequate numbers to meet the demand for our services. We also believe that our success depends to a significant extent on the ability of our key personnel to operate effectively, both individually and as a group. Additionally, we cannot be certain that we will be able to hire the requisite number of experienced and skilled personnel when necessary in order to service a major contract, particularly if the market for related personnel is competitive. Conversely, if we maintain or increase our staffing levels in anticipation of one or more projects and the projects are delayed, reduced or terminated, we may underutilize the additional personnel, which could reduce our operating margins, reduce our earnings and possibly harm our results of operations. If we are unable to obtain major contracts or effectively complete such contracts due to staffing deficiencies, our revenues may decline and we may experience a drop in net income.

If we are unable to identify and complete future acquisitions, we may be unable to continue our growth.

Since November 1, 2001, we have acquired nine companies and we intend to further expand our operations through targeted strategic acquisitions. However, we may not be able to identify suitable acquisition opportunities. Even if we identify favorable acquisition targets, there is no guarantee that we can acquire them on reasonable terms or at all. If we are unable to complete attractive acquisitions, the growth that we have experienced over the last five fiscal years may decline.

Future acquired companies could be difficult to assimilate, disrupt our business, diminish stockholder value and adversely affect our operating results.

Completing acquisitions may require significant management time and financial resources because we may need to assimilate widely dispersed operations with distinct corporate cultures. Our failure to manage future acquisitions successfully could seriously harm our operating results. Also, acquisitions could cause our quarterly operating results to vary significantly. Furthermore, our stockholders would be diluted if we financed the acquisitions by issuing equity securities. In addition, acquisitions expose us to risks such as undisclosed liabilities, increased indebtedness associated with an acquisition and the potential for cash flow shortages that may occur if anticipated financial performance is not realized or is delayed from such acquired companies.

We derive a significant portion of our revenues from a limited number of customers, the loss of which would significantly reduce our revenues.

We have derived, and believe that we will continue to derive, a significant portion of our revenues from a limited number of customers. To the extent that any significant customer uses less of our services or terminates its relationship with us, our revenues could decline significantly. As a result, the loss of any significant customer could seriously harm our business. For the fiscal year ended April 30, 2007, we had two separate customers which accounted for 18.1% and 11.7% of our revenues. For the fiscal year ended April 30, 2006, we had two separate customers which accounted for 20.8% and 14.5% of our revenues. Other than under existing contractual obligations, none of our customers is obligated to purchase additional services from us. As a result, the volume of work that we perform for a specific customer is likely to vary from period to period, and a significant customer in one period may not use our services in a subsequent period.

Amounts included in our backlog may not result in actual revenue or translate into profits.

As of April 30, 2007, we had a backlog of unfilled orders of approximately $34.9 million. This backlog amount is based on contract values and purchase orders and may not result in actual receipt of revenue in the originally anticipated period or at all. In addition, contracts included in our backlog may not be profitable. We have experienced variances in the realization of our backlog because of project delays or cancellations resulting from external market factors and economic factors beyond our control and we may experience delays or cancellations in the future. If our backlog fails to materialize, we could experience a reduction in revenue, profitability and liquidity.

Our business could be affected by adverse weather conditions, resulting in variable quarterly results.

Adverse weather conditions, particularly during the winter season, could affect our ability to perform outdoor services in certain regions of the United States. As a result, we might experience reduced revenue in the third and fourth quarters of our fiscal year. Natural catastrophes such as the recent hurricanes in the United States could also have a negative impact on the economy overall and on our ability to perform outdoor services in affected regions or utilize equipment and crews stationed in those regions, which in turn could significantly impact the results of any one or more of our reporting periods.

If we are unable to retain the services of Messrs. Hidalgo, Schubiger, Heinz, Walker, or Madenford operations could be disrupted.

Our success depends to a significant extent upon the continued services of Mr. Andrew Hidalgo, our Chief Executive Officer and Messrs. Richard Schubiger, James Heinz, Donald Walker, and Charles Madenford, our Executive Vice Presidents. Mr. Hidalgo has overseen our company since inception and provides leadership for our growth and operations strategy. Messrs. Schubiger, Heinz, Walker and Madenford run the day-to-day operations of Quality, Heinz, Walker Comm, and Clayborn respectively. Loss of the services of Messrs. Hidalgo, Schubiger, Heinz, Walker or Madenford could disrupt our operations and harm our growth, revenues, and prospective business. We do not maintain key-man insurance on the lives of Messrs. Hidalgo, Schubiger, Heinz, Walker or Madenford.

Employee strikes and other labor-related disruptions may adversely affect our operations.

Our business is labor intensive, with certain projects requiring large numbers of engineers. Over 29% of our workforce is unionized. Strikes or labor disputes with our unionized employees may adversely affect our ability to conduct our business. If we are unable to reach agreement with any of our unionized work groups on future negotiations regarding the terms of their collective bargaining agreements, or if additional segments of our workforce become unionized, we may be subject to work interruptions or stoppages. Any of these events could be disruptive to our operations and could result in negative publicity, loss of contracts and a decrease in revenues.

We may incur goodwill impairment charges in our reporting entities which could harm our profitability.

In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards, or SFAS, No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets,” we periodically review the carrying values of our goodwill to determine whether such carrying values exceed the fair market value. Eight of our acquired companies, Clayborn, Heinz, Invisinet, Quality, Walker Comm, NECS, SECS and Voacolo, each of which is a reporting unit, are subject to annual review for goodwill impairment. If impairment testing indicates that the carrying value of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, the goodwill of the reporting unit is deemed impaired. Accordingly, an impairment charge would be recognized for that reporting unit in the period identified, which could reduce our profitability.

Our quarterly results fluctuate and may cause our stock price to decline.

Our quarterly operating results have fluctuated in the past and will likely fluctuate in the future. As a result, we believe that period to period comparisons of our results of operations are not a good indication of our future performance. A number of factors, many of which are beyond our control, are likely to cause these fluctuations. Some of these factors include:

 
the timing and size of network deployments and technology upgrades by our customers;

 
fluctuations in demand for outsourced network services;

 
the ability of certain customers to sustain capital resources to pay their trade accounts receivable balances and required changes to our allowance for doubtful accounts based on periodic assessments of the collectibility of our accounts receivable balances;

 
reductions in the prices of services offered by our competitors;

 
our success in bidding on and winning new business; and

 
our sales, marketing and administrative cost structure.

Because our operating results may vary significantly from quarter to quarter, our operating results may not meet the expectations of securities analysts and investors, and our common stock could decline significantly which may expose us to risks of securities litigation, impair our ability to attract and retain qualified individuals using equity incentives and make it more difficult to complete acquisitions using equity as consideration.

Our stock price may be volatile, which may result in lawsuits against us and our officers and directors.

The stock market in general, and the stock prices of technology and telecommunications companies in particular, have experienced volatility that has often been unrelated to or disproportionate to the operating performance of those companies. The market price of our common stock has fluctuated in the past and is likely to fluctuate in the future. Between April 30, 2006 and April 30, 2007, our common stock has traded as low as $6.53 and as high as $13.74 per share, based upon information provided by NASDAQ Capital Market and NASDAQ Global Market. Factors which could have a significant impact on the market price of our common stock include, but are not limited to, the following:

 
11



 
quarterly variations in operating results;

 
announcements of new services by us or our competitors;

 
the gain or loss of significant customers;

 
changes in analysts’ earnings estimates;

 
rumors or dissemination of false information;

 
pricing pressures;

 
short selling of our common stock;

 
impact of litigation;

 
general conditions in the market;

 
changing the exchange or quotation system on which we list our common stock for trading;

 
political and/or military events associated with current worldwide conflicts; and

 
events affecting other companies that investors deem comparable to us.

Companies that have experienced volatility in the market price of their stock have frequently been the object of securities class action litigation. Class action and derivative lawsuits could result in substantial costs to us and a diversion of our management’s attention and resources, which could materially harm our financial condition and results of operations.

Future changes in financial accounting standards may adversely affect our reported results of operations.

A change in accounting standards could have a significant effect on our reported results and may even affect our reporting of transactions completed before the change is effective. For example, in December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 123(R), “Share-Based Payment,” a revision of SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” which requires companies to expense all employee stock options and other share-based payments over the service period. Implementation of this standard as required during the first fiscal quarter of our fiscal year 2007 may impair our ability to use equity compensation to attract and retain skilled personnel. It is likely that we will have to recognize additional compensation expense in the periods after adoption of this standard.

New pronouncements and varying interpretations of pronouncements have occurred and may occur in the future. Changes to existing rules or the questioning of current practices may adversely affect our reported financial results or the way we conduct our business.

Compliance with changing regulation of corporate governance and public disclosure may result in additional expenses.

Changing laws, regulations and standards relating to corporate governance and public disclosure, including the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, newly enacted SEC regulations and NASDAQ Stock Market rules, have created additional burdens for companies such as ours. We are committed to maintaining high standards of corporate governance and public disclosure. As a result, we intend to invest appropriate resources to comply with evolving standards. This investment will result in increased general and administrative costs and a diversion of management time and attention from revenue-generating activities to compliance activities.

We can issue shares of preferred stock without shareholder approval, which could adversely affect the rights of common shareholders.

Our certificate of incorporation permits us to establish the rights, privileges, preferences and restrictions, including voting rights, of future series of our preferred stock and to issue such stock without approval from our stockholders. The rights of holders of our common stock may suffer as a result of the rights granted to holders of preferred stock that we may issue in the future. In addition, we could issue preferred stock to prevent a change in control of our company, depriving common shareholders of an opportunity to sell their stock at a price in excess of the prevailing market price.


 
12


 
There may be an adverse effect on the market price of our shares as a result of shares being available for sale in the future.

As of July 15, 2007, holders of our outstanding options and warrants have the right to acquire 2,454,216 shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of stock options and warrants, at exercise prices ranging from $4.80 to $19.92 per share, with a weighted average exercise price of $7.02. The sale or availability for sale in the market of the shares underlying these options and warrants could depress our stock price. We have registered substantially all of the underlying shares described above for resale. Holders of registered underlying shares may resell the shares immediately upon issuance upon exercise of an option or warrant.

If our stockholders sell substantial amounts of our shares of common stock, including shares issued upon the exercise of outstanding options and warrants, the market price of our common stock may decline. These sales also might make it more difficult for us to sell equity or equity-related securities in the future at a time and price that we deem appropriate.

We are subject to the risks associated with doing business in the People’s Republic of China (PRC).

We conduct certain business in China through our TAGS joint venture, which is organized under the laws of the PRC. Our China operations are directly related to and dependent on the social, economic and political conditions in this country, many of which we have no control over, and are influenced by many factors, including:

 
·
changes in the region’s economic, social and political conditions or government policies;

 
·
changes in trade laws, tariffs and other trade restrictions or licenses;

 
·
changes in foreign exchange regulation in China may limit our ability to freely convert currency to make dividends or other payments in U.S. dollars;

 
·
fluctuation in the value of the RMB ( Chinese Yuan) could adversely affect the value of our investment in China;

 
·
limitations on the repatriation of earnings or assets, including cash;

 
·
adverse changes in tax laws and regulations;

 
·
difficulties in managing or overseeing our China operations, including the need to implement appropriate systems, policies, benefits and compliance programs; and

 
·
different liability standards and less developed legal systems that may be less predictable than those in the United States.

The occurrence or consequences of any of these conditions may restrict our ability to operate and/or decrease the profitability our operations in China.

Factors that could cause differences include, but are not limited to, expected market demand for the Company’s services, fluctuations in pricing for materials, and competition.

Business Overview

The increasing demand for wireless services has become the driving force behind the recent growth in the global communications industry. Wireless technology has advanced substantially to the point where wireless networks have proven to be an effective alternative to land line networks, a key factor in its broad acceptance. The advantages of wireless over land line communication are apparent in the aspects of mobility, capacity, cost, and deployment. The use of dedicated wireless networks for specified applications has improved productivity for individuals and organizations alike. We provide design-build engineering services for specialty communication systems, which are dedicated wireless networks for specified applications and for wireless infrastructure, which encompasses cellular networks for wireless carriers. Our range of services includes site design, spectrum analysis, product integration, structured cabling, electrical work, trenching, construction, testing, project management and maintenance. Because we are technology and vendor independent, we can integrate multiple products and services across a variety of communication requirements. This ability gives our customers the flexibility to obtain the most appropriate solution for their communication needs on a cost effective basis. Our customers include corporations, government entities and educational institutions.

We operate in two segments that we define as specialty communication systems and wireless infrastructure services.

Specialty Communication Systems

We provide specialty communication systems which are wireless networks designed to improve productivity for a specified application by communicating data, voice or video information in situations where land line networks are non-existent, more difficult to deploy or too expensive. The types of specialty communication systems that we implement are used for mobile communication and general wireless connectivity purposes. In mobile communication, the most popular applications include asset tracking, telematics and telemetry.

In general wireless connectivity, we design and deploy networks that allow entities to reduce their dependence on high cost leased land lines. We have the engineering expertise to utilize any facet of wireless technology or a combination of various wireless technologies to engineer a cost effective network for a customer’s wireless communication requirement. In addition, the design and deployment of a specialty communication system is a comprehensive effort that requires an in-depth knowledge of radio frequency engineering so that the wireless network is free from interference with other signals and amplified sufficiently to carry data, voice or video with speed and accuracy. For the year ended April 30, 2007, specialty communication systems represented approximately 81% of our total revenue.

Wireless Infrastructure Services

We provide wireless infrastructure services to major wireless carriers, which are services that include the engineering, installation, integration and maintenance of wireless carrier equipment. Wireless carriers continue to be focused on building and expanding their networks, increasing capacity, upgrading their networks with new technologies and maintaining their existing infrastructure. Our engineers install, test and commission base station equipment at the carrier cell site, including installation of new equipment, technology upgrades, equipment modifications and reconfigurations. These services may also include tower construction.

 
18


 
Major wireless carriers have come to depend on our experience in providing engineering and support services that keep their networks technologically advanced and consistently operational. We have extensive experience in the installation, testing and commissioning of base station equipment. We provide complete services including testing, equipment modification, reconfiguration, structured cabling and relocating equipment at the cell site. In addition, WPCS also performs network modifications, antenna sectorization, electrical work and maintenance. For the year ended April 30, 2007, wireless infrastructure services represented approximately 19% of our total revenue.

Management currently considers the following events, trends and uncertainties to be important in understanding our results of operations and financial condition:

 
·
For the year ended April 30, 2007, the specialty communication systems segment represented approximately 81% of total revenue, and the wireless infrastructure services segment represented approximately 19% of total revenue, which remains consistent with our historical services revenue mix.

 
·
As we continue to search for acquisitions, our primary goal is to identify companies which are performing well financially and are compatible with the services that we perform in the specialty communication systems segment. This trend could lead to a further shift in our revenue composition towards the specialty communication systems segment. We believe that the strength of our experience in the design and deployment of specialty communication systems gives us a competitive advantage.

 
·
We also seek to achieve organic growth in our existing business by maximizing the value of our existing customer base, maintaining and expanding our focus in vertical markets and developing our relationships with technology providers.

 
·
We believe that the emergence of new and improved technologies such as WiMAX will create additional opportunities for us to design and deploy solutions through the use of the latest technologies and assisting existing customers in enhancing the efficiency of their existing wireless networks using new technologies.

 
·
We believe that the wireless carriers will continue to make expenditures to build and upgrade their networks, increase existing capacity, upgrade their networks with new technologies and maintain their existing infrastructure. In response to this trend, we will continue to provide network deployment services that address wireless carrier needs.

In connection with the sale of our common stock and warrants to certain investors during the third quarter ended January 31, 2005, we granted certain registration rights that provided for liquidated damages in the event of failure to timely perform under the agreements. During the third quarter of fiscal 2006, we became aware that the SEC had recently announced its preferred interpretation of the accounting for common stock and warrants with registration rights under Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) 00-19, “Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed To, and Potentially Settled in the Company’s Own Stock,” and EITF 05-04, “The Effect of a Liquidated Damages Clause on a Freestanding Financial Instrument Subject to EITF 00-19.” Although the EITF was still reviewing the guidance in EITF 05-04, the SEC concluded that under EITF 00-19, the common stock and warrants subject to registration rights where significant liquidated damages could be required to be paid to the holder of the instrument in the event the issuer fails to maintain the effectiveness of a registration statement for a preset time period does not meet the tests required for shareholders’ equity classification and accordingly, must be reflected as temporary equity in the balance sheet until the conditions are eliminated. Additionally, the fair value of warrants should be recorded as a liability, with an offsetting reduction to shareholders’ equity, adjusted to market value at the end of each period. In analyzing instruments under EITF 00-19, the SEC concluded that the likelihood or probability related to the failure to maintain an effective registration statement was not a factor at that time. During fiscal 2006, the warrant liability increased by $4,078,494, due to the increase in the market value of our common stock, resulting in a net non-cash loss on fair value of warrants for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2006. The non-cash loss on warrants had no effect on our cash flows or liquidity. On April 11, 2006, we entered into a waiver agreement with the institutional investors related to this private placement. Under the waiver, the parties agreed to modify the registration rights agreement associated with the common stock and warrants issued in November 2004 affected by EITF 00-19, thereby eliminating the penalty provisions that could have resulted from not maintaining an effective registration statement related to these common shares and shares underlying the warrants, and eliminating any similar non-cash charges in subsequent fiscal years.

Cost of Revenue

Cost of revenue consists of direct costs on contracts, materials, direct labor, third party subcontractor services, union benefits and other overhead costs. Our cost of revenue was approximately $47,781,000 or 68.3% of revenue for the year ended April 30, 2007, compared to $38,011,000 or 72.9% for the prior year. The dollar increase in our total cost of revenue is due to the corresponding increase in revenue during the year ended April 30, 2007 as a result of the acquisition of NECS, SECS, Voacolo, TAGS and from organic growth. The decrease in cost of revenue as a percentage of revenue is due primarily to the revenue mix attributable to revenue from Walker, Clayborn, Heinz, Quality and the acquisitions of NECS, SECS, Voacolo and TAGS.

The specialty communication segment cost of revenue and cost of revenue as a percentage of revenue for the years ended April 30, 2007 and 2006 was approximately $38,144,000 and 67.2% and $31,194,000 and 72.8%, respectively.

Depreciation and Amortization

For the years ended April 30, 2007 and 2006, depreciation was approximately $776,000 and $544,000, respectively. The increase in depreciation is due to the purchase of property and equipment and the acquisition of fixed assets from acquiring NECS, SECS, Voacolo and TAGS. The amortization of customer lists and backlog for the year ended April 30, 2007 was $463,000 as compared to $294,000 for the same period of the prior year.

Interest Expense and Interest Income

For the years ended April 30, 2007 and 2006, interest expense was approximately $496,000 and $256,000, respectively. The increase in interest expense is due principally from increased borrowings on the revolving line of credit and the amortization of debt issuance costs under the credit agreement entered into on June 3, 2005.

 
21


   For the years ended April 30, 2007 and 2006, interest income was approximately $526,000 and $122,000, respectively. The increase in interest earned is due principally to the increase in our cash and cash equivalent balance in fiscal 2007 from cash provided by operations and the proceeds received from the issuance of common stock.

Net Income (Loss)

The net income was approximately $4,594,000 for the year ended April 30, 2007. Net income was net of federal and state income tax expense of approximately $3,147,000. The variation in effective tax rates between periods was primarily due to the nondeductible loss on fair value of warrants in fiscal 2006.

The net loss was approximately $1,624,000 for the year ended April 30, 2006. Net loss is net of federal and state income tax expense of approximately $1,516,000.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

For the year ended April 30, 2006, total selling, general and administrative expenses were $9,191,000, or 17.6% of total revenue compared to $7,033,000 or 17.5% of revenue for the prior year.

The amortization of customer lists for the year ended April 30, 2006 was $294,000 as compared to $310,000 for the same period of the prior year. The decrease in amortization is due to the amortization of backlog for Heinz in the prior year, partially offset by an increase in amortization from the acquisition of Quality customer lists. All customer lists are amortized over a period of five to six years from the date of their acquisition. Backlog is amortized over a period of one year from the date of acquisition.

23


Loss (Gain) on Fair Value of Warrants
 
Loss on fair value of warrants for the year ended April 30, 2006 was approximately $4,078,000. The loss in fiscal 2006 was due principally to the increase in the market value of our common stock in fiscal 2006. The loss represents the unrealized non-cash change in the fair value of certain warrants for the year, using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. For the year ended April 30, 2005, the gain on fair value of warrants was approximately $1,414,000, due principally to the decrease in the market value of our common stock. The non-cash loss or gain on fair value of warrants has no impact on our cash flows or liquidity.

Net Income (Loss)

As a result of the above, the net loss was approximately $1,624,000 for the year ended April 30, 2006. Net loss is net of federal and state income tax expense of approximately $1,516,000. The variation in effective tax rates between periods is primarily due to the Quality acquisition and change in fair value of warrants described above.

We recognized net income of approximately $1,329,000 for the year ended April 30, 2005. Income tax of approximately $52,000 was expensed for federal and state income taxes.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At April 30, 2007, we had working capital of approximately $30,320,000, which consisted of current assets of approximately $43,665,000 and current liabilities of $13,345,000.

Operating activities provided approximately $6,169,000 in cash for the year ended April 30, 2007. The sources of cash from operating activities total approximately $9,115,000, comprised of $4,594,000 net income, $1,294,000 in net non-cash charges, a $2,320,000 decrease in accounts receivable, $319,000 decrease in inventory and prepaid expenses, a $329,000 increase in billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings on uncompleted contracts payable, $222,000 increase in deferred revenue and a $37,000 increase in income taxes payable. The uses of cash from operating activities total approximately $2,946,000, comprised of a $421,000 increase in costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts, a $180,000 increase in other assets, and a $2,345,000 decrease in accounts payable and accrued expenses.

Our investing activities utilized approximately $8,632,000 in cash during the year ended April 30, 2007, which consisted of $673,000 paid for property and equipment, and $7,959,000 paid for the acquisitions of NECS, SECS, Voacolo, and TAGS, net of cash acquired of $1,055,000.

Our financing activities provided cash of approximately $11,743,000 during the year ended April 30, 2007. Financing activities include the net proceeds from the exercise of warrants of $198,000, net proceeds from the issuance of common stock of $9,338,000, net proceeds from the exercise of stock options of $1,226,000, borrowings under lines of credit of $1,454,000 and a $258,000 tax benefit from the exercise of stock options, offset by equity issuance costs of $51,000, debt issuance costs of $10,000, net repayments of equipment loans and capital lease obligations of approximately $481,000, and $189,000 to pay amounts due to shareholders.

Our capital requirements depend on numerous factors, including the market for our services, the resources we devote to developing, marketing, selling and supporting our business, the timing and extent of establishing additional markets and other factors.

On April 10, 2007, we entered into a loan agreement with Bank of America, N.A. (BOA). The loan agreement (the Loan Agreement), provides for a revolving line of credit in an amount not to exceed $12,000,000, together with a letter of credit facility not to exceed $2,000,000. We and our subsidiaries also entered into security agreements with BOA, pursuant to which we granted a security interest to BOA in all of our assets. The Loan Agreement contains customary covenants, including but not limited to (i) funded debt to tangible net worth, and (ii) minimum interest coverage ratio. The loan commitment shall expire on April 10, 2010, and we may prepay the loan at any time. Loans under the Loan Agreement bear interest at a rate equal to BOA’s prime rate, minus one percentage point, or we have the option to elect to use the optional interest rate of LIBOR plus one hundred seventy-five basic points (5.32% LIBOR rate plus one and three quarters percent as of April 30, 2007). We used the initial funds provided by the loan, in the gross amount of $4,454,217 to repay the existing credit agreement with Bank Leumi USA, which credit agreement was terminated in connection with the Loan Agreement.

At April 30, 2007, we had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $21,559,000 and working capital of approximately $30,320,000. With the funds available from the recently obtained revolving credit line and internally available funds, we believe that we have sufficient capital to meet our needs through April 30, 2008. Our future operating results may be affected by a number of factors including our success in bidding on future contracts and our continued ability to manage controllable costs effectively. To the extent we grow by future acquisitions that involve consideration other than stock, our cash requirements may increase.

Effective June 1, 2006, we acquired NECS, a Connecticut corporation. The aggregate consideration paid the NECS selling shareholders, including acquisition transaction costs of $69,775, was $4,737,017, of which $4,333,987 was paid at closing. Additional purchase price adjustments of $189,077 were paid in October 2006 to settle working capital adjustments. In March 2007, aggregate additional consideration of $144,178 was paid to the NECS selling shareholders based on the earn out settlement for the calendar year ending December 31, 2006. In connection with the acquisition, NECS entered into employment agreements with two of the shareholders, each for a period of two years and a consulting agreement with one of the shareholders for a period of seven years. A formal purchase price allocation has been completed and the amounts assignable to tangible assets, other intangible assets and goodwill have been determined.
 
The acquisition of NECS provides us with additional project engineering expertise for specialty communication systems, broadens our customer base especially in the public safety and gaming markets, including the Massachusetts State Police, University of Connecticut and Foxwoods Resort Casino, and expands our geographic presence in New England.

Effective July 19, 2006, we acquired SECS of Sarasota, Florida. The aggregate consideration we paid to the SECS selling shareholders, including acquisition transaction costs of $21,833, was $3,482,346, of which $1,620,000 was paid at closing, and we issued 200,288 shares of common stock valued at approximately $1,400,000. Additional purchase price adjustments of $440,513 were paid in November 2006, to settle working capital adjustments. We filed a registration statement with the SEC on August 14, 2006 to register the shares of common stock issued to the former SECS shareholders, which was declared effective by the SEC on August 24, 2006. In connection with the acquisition, SECS entered into employment agreements and a consulting agreement with certain officers or former officers of SECS. A formal purchase price allocation has been completed and the amounts assignable to tangible assets, other intangible assets and goodwill have been determined.

The acquisition of SECS provides us with additional project engineering expertise for wireless infrastructure services, broadens our customer base of corporate, government and educational clients, including the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), Verizon, BellSouth, Comcast, Time Warner, University of Florida and Puerto Rico Telephone, and expands our geographic presence in the Southeastern United States.

Effective March 30, 2007, we acquired Voacolo. The aggregate consideration we paid to the Voacolo selling shareholders, including acquisition transaction costs of $24,288, was $2,461,788 of which $1,187,500 was paid at closing, and we issued 113,534 shares of common stock valued at approximately $1,250,000. The purchase price is subject to adjustment for any excess or shortfall between the net tangible asset value of Voacolo as of the closing date and $1,200,000. In addition, we agreed to pay an additional $2,500,000 in cash or Company common stock if Voacolo’s earnings before interest and taxes for the period ending twelve months from March 30, 2007 shall equal or exceed $1,100,000. In connection with the acquisition, Voacolo entered into employment agreements with the former Voacolo shareholders, each for a period of  two years.

Voacolo is an electrical contractor in the Mid-Atlantic area that specializes in both high and low voltage applications structured cabling and voice/data/video solutions, as well as beginning to expand its operations particularly in wireless video surveillance. The company is headquartered in Trenton, New Jersey and has completed many major projects for commercial and government entities.

Effective April 5, 2007, we acquired a 60% working interest (the Equity Interest) and a 60% profit interest (the Profit Interest and together with the Equity Interest, the Interest) in TAGS, a joint venture enterprise in the City of Taian, Shandong province, the People's Republic of China from American Gas Services, Inc. (AGS) and American Gas Services, Inc. Consultants (AGS Consultants), respectively. The purchase price for the Interest was $800,000 in cash and 61,277 shares of common stock of the Company having a value of $720,000. The purchase price is subject to adjustment in an amount equal to 60% of any shortfall between the net tangible asset value of TAGS as of the closing date and $3,300,000.

Founded in 1997 and headquartered in the Province of Shandong, TAGS is a communications infrastructure engineering company serving the China market. TAGS is certified by the People's Republic of China as both a Construction Enterprise of Reform Development company and a Technically Advanced Construction Enterprise company for the Province of Shandong, which are two of the highest certifications achievable for engineering and construction based businesses in China. TAGS is also licensed in 17 other provinces and has completed projects for a diverse customer base of businesses and government institutions in over 30 cities in China.

We recently announced the signing of letters of intent to acquire two companies. These transactions are expected to close by August 1, 2007, subject to completion of due diligence and the execution of definitive agreements.

We intend to acquire 100% of Major Electric, Inc (Major) for $4 million in cash and stock at closing with additional purchase price to be paid upon the achievement of a certain earnings target for the twelve months ending December 31, 2007. Founded in 1994, Major is headquartered in the Seattle area and is a wireless and electric contractor specializing in direct digital controls, security, wireless supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) applications and wireless infrastructure services. Major has completed major projects for many commercial entities.

We intend to acquire 100% of Max Engineering LLC (Max) for $800,000 in cash and stock at closing with additional purchase price to be paid upon the achievement of a specific two-year earnings goal. Founded in 2000, Max is an engineering firm headquartered in Houston, Texas, specializing in the design of specialty communication systems and wireless infrastructure for telecommunications, oil, gas and wind energy.

Backlog

As of April 30, 2007, we had a backlog of unfilled orders of approximately $34.9 million compared to approximately $15.9 million at April 30, 2006. We define backlog as the value of work-in-hand to be provided for customers as of a specific date where the following conditions are met (with the exception of engineering change orders): (i) the price of the work to be done is fixed; (ii) the scope of the work to be done is fixed, both in definition and amount; and (iii) there is a written contract, purchase order, agreement or other documentary evidence which represents a firm commitment by the customer to pay us for the work to be performed. These backlog amounts are based on contract values and purchase orders and may not result in actual receipt of revenue in the originally anticipated period or at all. We have experienced variances in the realization of our backlog because of project delays or cancellations resulting from external market factors and economic factors beyond our control and we may experience such delays or cancellations in the future. Backlog does not include new firm commitments which may be awarded to us by our customers from time to time in future periods. These new project awards could be started and completed in this same future period. Accordingly, our backlog does not necessarily represent the total revenue that could be earned by us in future periods.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements.

Critical Accounting Policies

Financial Reporting Release No. 60, published by the SEC, recommends that all companies include a discussion of critical accounting policies used in the preparation of their financial statements. While all these significant accounting policies impact our financial condition and results of operations, we view certain of these policies as critical. Policies determined to be critical are those policies that have the most significant impact on our consolidated financial statements and require management to use a greater degree of judgment and estimates. Actual results may differ from those estimates.

We believe that given current facts and circumstances, it is unlikely that applying any other reasonable judgments or estimate methodologies would cause a material effect on our consolidated results of operations, financial position or liquidity for the periods presented in this report.

The accounting policies identified as critical are as follows:

Use of Estimates

In preparing financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and revenue and expenses during the reporting period. The most significant estimates relate to revenue recognition based on the estimation of percentage of completion on uncompleted contracts, valuation of inventory, allowance for doubtful accounts, estimated life of customer lists and estimates of the fair value of reporting units and discounted cash flows used in determining whether goodwill has been impaired. Actual results could differ from those estimates.


Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable are due within contractual payment terms and are stated at amounts due from customers net of an allowance for doubtful accounts. Credit is extended based on evaluation of a customer's financial condition. Accounts outstanding longer than the contractual payment terms are considered past due. The Company determines its allowance by considering a number of factors, including the length of time trade accounts receivable are past due, the Company's previous loss history, the customer's current ability to pay its obligation to the Company, and the condition of the general economy and the industry as a whole. The Company writes off accounts receivable when they become uncollectible, and payment subsequently received on such receivables are credited to the allowance for doubtful accounts.

Goodwill and Other Long-lived Assets

We assess the impairment of long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying value may not be recoverable from the estimated future cash flows expected to result from their use and eventual disposition. Our long-lived assets subject to this evaluation include property and equipment and amortizable intangible assets. We assess the impairment of goodwill annually as of April 30 and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that an impairment loss has been incurred. Intangible assets other than goodwill are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be fully recoverable. We are required to make judgments and assumptions in identifying those events or changes in circumstances that may trigger impairment. Some of the factors we consider include a significant decrease in the market value of an asset, significant changes in the extent or manner for which the asset is being used or in its physical condition, a significant change, delay or departure in our business strategy related to the asset, significant negative changes in the business climate, industry or economic condition, or current period operating losses, or negative cash flow combined with a history of similar losses or a forecast that indicates continuing losses associated with the use of an asset.

Our annual review for goodwill impairment for the fiscal years 2007 and 2006 found that no impairment existed. Our impairment review is based on comparing the fair value to the carrying value of the reporting units with goodwill. The fair value of a reporting unit is measured at the business unit level using a discounted cash flow approach that incorporates our estimates of future revenues and costs for those business units. Reporting units with goodwill include Invisinet and Heinz within our wireless infrastructure segment and Walker, Clayborn and Quality within our specialty communications segment. Our estimates are consistent with the plans and estimates that we are using to manage the underlying businesses. If we fail to deliver products and services for these business units, or market conditions for these businesses fail to improve, our revenue and cost forecasts may not be achieved and we may incur charges for goodwill impairment, which could be significant and could have a material adverse effect on our net equity and results of operations.

Deferred Income Taxes

We determine deferred tax liabilities and assets at the end of each period based on the future tax consequences that can be attributed to net operating loss and credit carryovers and differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases, using the tax rate expected to be in effect when the taxes are actually paid or recovered. The recognition of deferred tax assets is reduced by a valuation allowance if it is more likely than not that the tax benefits will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets depends upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible.

We consider past performance, expected future taxable income and prudent and feasible tax planning strategies in assessing the amount of the valuation allowance. Our forecast of expected future taxable income is based over such future periods that we believe can be reasonably estimated. Changes in market conditions that differ materially from our current expectations and changes in future tax laws in the U.S. may cause us to change our judgments of future taxable income. These changes, if any, may require us to adjust our existing tax valuation allowance higher or lower than the amount we have recorded.

Revenue Recognition

We generate our revenue by providing engineering and deployment services for wireless infrastructure services and specialty communication systems. We provide a range of services including site design, spectrum analysis, product integration, structured cabling, electrical work, trenching, construction, testing, project management and maintenance. Our engineering and deployment services report revenue pursuant to customer contracts that span varying periods of time. We report revenue from contracts when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, fees are fixed or determinable, and collection is reasonably assured.

We record revenue and profit from long-term contracts on a percentage-of-completion basis, measured by the percentage of contract costs incurred to date to the estimated total costs for each contracts. Contracts in process are valued at cost plus accrued profits less earned revenues and progress payments on uncompleted contracts. Contract costs include direct materials, direct labor, third party subcontractor services and those indirect costs related to contract performance. Contracts are generally considered substantially complete when engineering is completed and/or site construction is completed.

We have numerous contracts that are in various stages of completion. Such contracts require estimates to determine the appropriate cost and revenue recognition. Cost estimates are reviewed monthly on a contract-by-contract basis, and are revised periodically throughout the life of the contract such that adjustments to profit resulting from revisions are made cumulative to the date of the revision. Significant management judgments and estimates, including the estimated cost to complete projects, which determines the project’s percent complete, must be made and used in connection with the revenue recognized in the accounting period. Current estimates may be revised as additional information becomes available. If estimates of costs to complete long-term contracts indicate a loss, provision is made currently for the total loss anticipated.

 
27



We also recognize certain revenue from short-term contracts when equipment is delivered or the services have been provided to the customer. For maintenance contracts, revenue is recognized ratably over the service period.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

SFAS 123(R) (revised December 2004), Share-Based Payment, an amendment of SFAS 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, established accounting and disclosure requirements using a fair-value-based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation plans. As a result of the amendments to SFAS 123, we are required to expense the fair value of employee stock options effective May 1, 2006. The revised standard requires us to expense the fair value of employee stock options and other share-based payments over the service period. 

In June 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes - an interpretation of FAS No. 109 (FIN 48), which clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes is subject to significant and varied interpretations that have resulted in diverse and inconsistent accounting practices and measurements. Addressing such diversity, FIN 48 prescribes a consistent recognition threshold and measurement attribute, as well as clear criteria for subsequently recognizing, derecognizing and measuring changes in such tax positions for financial statement purposes. FIN 48 also requires expanded disclosure with respect to the uncertainty in income taxes. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. We have not yet determined the impact of FIN 48 on our consolidated financial position, results of operations, cash flows or financial statement disclosures.

On September 15, 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (SFAS 157), which is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and for interim periods within those years. SFAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands the related disclosure requirements. We are currently evaluating the potential impact, if any, of the adoption of SFAS 157 on our consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows or financial statement disclosures.

In September 2006, the SEC issued SAB No. 108 Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements When Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements(SAB 108), which is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2006 provides interpretive guidance on how registrants should quantify financial statement misstatements. Under SAB 108 registrants are required to consider both a “rollover” method, which focuses primarily on the income statement impact of misstatements, and the “iron curtain” method, which focuses primarily on the balance sheet impact of misstatements. The effects of prior year uncorrected errors include the potential accumulation of improper amounts that may result in a material misstatement on the balance sheet or the reversal of prior period errors in the current period that result in a material misstatement of the current period income statement amounts. Adjustments to current or prior period financial statements would be required in the event that after application of various approaches for assessing materiality of a misstatement in current period financial statements and consideration of all relevant quantitative factors, a misstatement is determined to be material. We are currently evaluating the potential impact, if any, of the adoption of SAB 108 on our consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows or financial statement disclosures.

In February, 2007, the FASB issued FASB Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities (SFAS 159), which permits entities to choose to measure many financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected are reported in earnings. SFAS 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. We have not yet determined the impact SFAS 159 may have on our results of operations or financial position.

No other recently issued accounting pronouncement issued or effective after the end of the fiscal year is expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

ITEM 7A - QUANTITIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Interest Rate Risk

Interest rate risk represents the potential loss from adverse changes in market interest rates. We are subject to interest rate risk with respect to amounts borrowed under our credit facility because such amounts bear interest at a variable rate. The interest rate is equal to the BOA’s prime rate minus one percent, or LIBOR plus one and three-quarters (1.75%) percent, as we may request (5.32% LIBOR rate plus one and three-quarters percent as of April 30, 2007). At April 30, 2007, we had approximately $4,454,000 of indebtedness outstanding under our revolving credit facility. A 1.0% increase in interest rates on un-hedged variable rate borrowings of $4.4 million at April 30, 2007 would result in additional interest expense of approximately $44,000 for twelve months ended April 30, 2007.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

A summary of significant accounting policies consistently applied in the preparation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements follows:

Principles of Consolidation

All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in these consolidated financial statements.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include all cash and highly-liquid investments with an original maturity at time of purchase of three months or less.

Concentrations of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable. The Company reduces credit risk by placing its temporary cash and investments with major financial institutions with high credit ratings. At times, such amounts may exceed federally insured limits. The Company reduces credit risk related to accounts receivable by routinely assessing the financial strength of its customers and maintaining an appropriate allowance for doubtful accounts based on its history of write-offs, current economic conditions and an evaluation of the credit risk related to specific customers.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable are due within contractual payment terms and are stated at amounts due from customers net of an allowance for doubtful accounts. Credit is extended based on evaluation of a customer's financial condition. Accounts outstanding longer than the contractual payment terms are considered past due. The Company determines its allowance by considering a number of factors, including the length of time trade accounts receivable are past due, the Company's previous loss history, the customer's current ability to pay its obligation to the Company, and the condition of the general economy and the industry as a whole. The Company writes off accounts receivable when they become uncollectible, and payments subsequently received on such receivables are credited to the allowance for doubtful accounts. Included in the accounts receivable is retainage receivable of $750,249 and $895,368 at April 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively, which is expected to be collected within one year.

Inventory

Inventory consists of materials, parts and supplies principally valued at the lower of cost using the first-in-first-out (FIFO) method, or market.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation and amortization are provided for, using straight-line methods, in amounts sufficient to charge the cost of depreciable assets to operations over their estimated service lives. Repairs and maintenance costs are charged to operations as incurred.

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

In accordance with Statement of Financial Standards (“SFAS”) No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets,” goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets are no longer amortized but are assessed for impairment on at least an annual basis. SFAS No. 142 also requires that intangible assets with definite useful lives be amortized over their respective estimated useful lives to their estimated residual values, and reviewed for impairment.

SFAS No. 142 requires that goodwill be tested at least annually, utilizing a two-step methodology. The initial step requires the Company to determine the fair value of the business acquired (reporting unit) and compare it to the carrying value, including goodwill, of such business (reporting unit). If the fair value exceeds the carrying value, no impairment loss is recognized. However, if the carrying value of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value, the goodwill of the unit may be impaired. The amount, if any, of the impairment is then measured in the second step, based on the excess, if any, of the reporting unit’s carrying value of goodwill over its implied value.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


The Company determines the fair value of the businesses acquired (reporting units) for purposes of this test primarily by using a discounted cash flow valuation technique. Significant estimates used in the valuation include estimates of future cash flows, both future short-term and long-term growth rates, and estimated cost of capital for purposes of arriving at a discount factor. The fair value of the Company’s reporting units derived using discounted cash flow models exceeded the carrying values of the reporting units at April 30, 2007 and 2006. Accordingly, step two was unnecessary and no impairment charge was recognized in the consolidated statement of operations for the years ended April 30, 2007, 2006 and 2005. On an ongoing basis, the Company expects to perform its annual impairment test at April 30 absent any interim impairment indicators.

Goodwill through the years ended April 30, 2007 and 2006 consisted of the following:

Revenue Recognition

The Company generates its revenue by providing engineering and deployment services for wireless infrastructure services and specialty communication systems. The Company provides a range of services including site design, spectrum analysis, product integration, structured cabling, electrical work, trenching, construction, testing, project management and maintenance. The Company’s engineering and deployment services report revenue pursuant to customer contracts that span varying periods of time. The Company reports revenue from contracts when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, fees are fixed or determinable, and collection is reasonably assured.

The Company records revenue and profit from long-term contracts on a percentage-of-completion basis, measured by the percentage of contract costs incurred to date to the estimated total costs for each contract. Contracts in process are valued at cost plus accrued profits less earned revenues and progress payments on uncompleted contracts. Contract costs include direct materials, direct labor, third party subcontractor services and those indirect costs related to contract performance. Contracts are generally considered substantially complete when engineering is completed and/or site construction is completed.

The Company has numerous contracts that are in various stages of completion. Such contracts require estimates to determine the appropriate cost and revenue recognition. Cost estimates are reviewed monthly on a contract-by-contract basis, and are revised periodically throughout the life of the contract such that adjustments to profit resulting from revisions are made cumulative to the date of the revision. Significant management judgments and estimates, including the estimated cost to complete projects, which determines the project’s percent complete, must be made and used in connection with the revenue recognized in the accounting period. Current estimates may be revised as additional information becomes available. If estimates of costs to complete long-term contracts indicate a loss, provision is made currently for the total loss anticipated.

The Company also recognizes certain revenue from short-term contracts when equipment is delivered or the services have been provided to the customer. For maintenance contracts, revenue is recognized ratably over the service period.

Other Concentrations

For the year ended April 30, 2007, the Company had two separate customers totaling approximately $12.7 million and $8.2 million, which comprised 18.1% and 11.7% of total revenue. For the year ended April 30, 2006, the Company had revenue from two separate customers totaling approximately $10.8 million and $7.6 million, which comprised 20.8% and 14.5% of total revenue, respectively. For the fiscal year ended April 30, 2005, the Company had revenue from one customer totaling $6.2 million, which comprised 15.5% of total revenue. Management believes there is no significant business vulnerability regarding the concentration of revenue due to the Company’s strong relationship with these customers and their financial strength.

The Company has approximately 106 union employees. A contract with 15 union employees expires on May 31, 2007. A new contract with this union has been negotiated and is in the process of completion. A contract with six union employees expired on September 30, 2007. A contract with 85 union employees expires on November 30, 2008. At April 30, 2007, 29% of the Company’s labor force is subject to collective bargaining agreements, of which 6% will expire within one year.

Income Taxes

Income taxes are accounted for in accordance with SFAS No. 109, "Accounting of Income Taxes." Under SFAS No. 109, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Under SFAS No. 109, the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. The recognition of deferred tax assets is reduced by a valuation allowance if it is more likely than not that the tax benefits will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets depends upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible.

Earnings (Loss) Per Share

Earnings (loss) per common share is computed pursuant to SFAS No. 128, "Earnings Per Share" (“EPS”). Basic income (loss) per common share is computed as net income (loss) divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur from common stock issuable through stock options and warrants.
 
At April 30, 2007, the Company had 560,834 stock options and 1,883,796 warrants outstanding which are potentially dilutive securities. For the year ended April 30, 2007, 91,791 options were not included in the computation of fully diluted earnings per common share, because the stock option exercise price exceeded the market price of common stock and, therefore, the effects would be antidilutive. The assumed conversion of the remaining 469,043 stock options and 1,883,796 warrants resulted in a 636,910 share increase in weighted average shares for fully diluted earnings per common share.

At April 30, 2006, 786,432 stock options and 2,017,453 warrants were not included in the computation of fully diluted earnings per share because the Company had a net loss and, therefore, the effects would be antidilutive.

At April 30, 2005, 188,340 stock options and 2,572,171 warrants were not included in the computation of fully diluted earnings per share, because the stock option and warrant exercise prices exceeded the market price of the common stock and, therefore, the effects would be antidilutive. The assumed conversion of the remaining 266,556 stock options resulted in a 50,337 share increase in weighted average shares for fully diluted earnings per share in fiscal 2005.

Stock-Based Compensation Plans

Prior to May 1, 2006, the Company accounted for stock-based employee compensation under the recognition provisions of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 (“APB 25”), Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees and related interpretations.

Effective May 1, 2006, the Company adopted the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS 123(R) (revised December 2004), Share-Based Payment, an amendment of SFAS 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, for stock-based employee compensation, using the modified prospective transition method. In March 2005, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107 (SAB 107), to provide guidance regarding the adoption of SFAS 123(R), and then amended the compliance date for SFAS 123R to begin with the first fiscal year beginning on or after December 15, 2005. Under SFAS 123(R), the Company is required to recognize compensation cost for share-based compensation issued to employees, net of estimated forfeitures, under share-based compensation plans using a fair value method. Using the modified prospective transition method, compensation expense recognized for the year ended April 30, 2007 includes (a) compensation cost for all share-based payments granted subsequent to May 1, 2006, based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of SFAS 123(R) and (b) compensation cost for all share-based payments granted prior to, but not yet vested as of, May 1, 2006, based on the intrinsic value method. Results for prior periods have not been restated.

As a result of adopting SFAS 123(R) on May 1, 2006, the Company’s income before income taxes and net income for the year ended April 30, 2007 were each approximately $38,000 lower than if it had continued to account for share-based compensation under APB 25. At April 30, 2007, the total compensation cost related to unvested stock options granted to employees under the Company’s stock option plans but not yet recognized was approximately $61,000 and is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 0.98 years. For the year ended April 30, 2007 and 2006, the weighted average fair value of stock options granted was $3.86 and $2.15, respectively.

The Company estimates the fair value of stock options granted using the Black-Scholes-Merton option-pricing model. Compensation cost is then recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting or service period and is net of estimated forfeitures. The following assumptions were used to compute the fair value of stock options granted during the year ended April 30, 2007:

4.73% to 4.96%
Expected volatility
61.0% to 62.4%
Expected dividend yield
0.0%
Expected term ( in years)

The risk-free rate is based on the rate of U.S. Treasury zero-coupon issues with a remaining term equal to the expected term of the option grants. Expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of the Company’s common stock using the weekly closing price of the Company’s common stock, pursuant to SAB 107. The expected dividend yield is zero based on the fact that the Company has never paid cash dividends and has no present intention to pay cash dividends. The expected term represents the period that the
Company’s stock-based awards are expected to be outstanding and was calculated using the simplified method pursuant to SAB 107.

Prior to May 1, 2006, the Company applied the intrinsic value method in accounting for its stock-based compensation plan. Had the Company measured compensation under the fair value-based method for stock options granted and amortized the cost over the related vesting period, the Company’s net income and net income per share would have been as follows:

The Company has elected to adopt the shortcut method provided in Staff Position No. FAS 123(R)-3, “Transition Election Related to Accounting for the Tax Effects of Share-Based Payment Awards,” for determining the initial pool of excess tax benefits available to absorb tax deficiencies related to stock-based compensation subsequent to the adoption of SFAS No. 123R. The shortcut method includes simplified procedures for establishing the beginning balance of the pool of excess tax benefits (the APIC Tax Pool) and for determining the subsequent effect on the APIC Tax Pool and the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows of the tax effects of share-based compensation awards. SFAS No. 123R requires that excess tax benefits related to share-based compensation be reflected as financing cash inflows.

Use of Estimates

In preparing financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The most significant estimates relate to the calculation of percentage of completion on uncompleted contracts, allowance for doubtful accounts, valuation of inventory, life of customer lists, and estimates of the fair value of reporting units and discounted cash flows used in determining whether goodwill has been impaired. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes - an interpretation of FAS No. 109 (FIN 48), which clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes is subject to significant and varied interpretations that have resulted in diverse and inconsistent accounting practices and measurements. Addressing such diversity, FIN 48 prescribes a consistent recognition threshold and measurement attribute, as well as clear criteria for

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 

subsequently recognizing, derecognizing and measuring changes in such tax positions for financial statement purposes. FIN 48 also requires expanded disclosure with respect to the uncertainty in income taxes. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. The Company has not yet determined the impact of FIN 48 on its consolidated financial position, results of operations, cash flows or financial statement disclosures.

On September 15, 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (SFAS 157), which is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and for interim periods within those years. SFAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands the related disclosure requirements. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact, if any, of the adoption of SFAS 157 on its consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows or financial statement disclosures.

In September 2006, the SEC issued SAB No. 108 Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements When Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements(SAB 108), which is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2006 provides interpretive guidance on how registrants should quantify financial statement misstatements. Under SAB 108 registrants are required to consider both a “rollover” method, which focuses primarily on the income statement impact of misstatements, and the “iron curtain” method, which focuses primarily on the balance sheet impact of misstatements. The effects of prior year uncorrected errors include the potential accumulation of improper amounts that may result in a material misstatement on the balance sheet or the reversal of prior period errors in the current period that result in a material misstatement of the current period income statement amounts. Adjustments to current or prior period financial statements would be required in the event that after application of various approaches for assessing materiality of a misstatement in current period financial statements and consideration of all relevant quantitative factors, a misstatement is determined to be material. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact, if any, of the adoption of SAB 108 on its consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows or financial statement disclosures.

In February, 2007, the FASB issued FASB Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities (SFAS 159), which permits entities to choose to measure many financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected are reported in earnings. SFAS 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company has not yet determined the impact SFAS 159 may have on our results of operations or financial position.

No other recently issued accounting pronouncement issued or effective after the end of the fiscal year is expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 3 - ACQUISITIONS

In accordance with SFAS No. 141, “Business Combinations,” acquisitions are accounted for under the purchase method of accounting. Under the purchase method of accounting, assets acquired and liabilities assumed are recorded at their estimated fair values. Goodwill is recorded to the extent the purchase price consideration, including certain acquisition and closing costs, exceeds the fair value of the net identifiable assets acquired at the date of the acquisition.

NECS

Effective June 1, 2006, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding common stock of NECS. The aggregate consideration paid by the Company to the NECS selling shareholders, including acquisition transaction costs of $69,775, was $4,737,017, of which $4,333,987 was paid at closing. Additional purchase price adjustments of $189,077 were paid in October 2006 to settle working capital adjustments. In March 2007, aggregate additional consideration of $144,178 was paid to the NECS selling shareholders based on the earnout settlement for the calendar year ending December 31, 2006. In connection with the acquisition, NECS entered into employment agreements with two of the shareholders, each for a period of two years and a consulting agreement with one of the shareholders for a period of seven years.

The acquisition of NECS provides the Company with additional project engineering expertise for specialty communication systems, broadens the Company’s customer base especially in the public safety and gaming markets, including the Massachusetts State Police, University of Connecticut and Foxwoods Resort Casino, and expands the Company’s geographic presence in New England.

A valuation of certain assets was completed, including property and equipment, list of major customers, and the Company internally determined the fair value of other assets and liabilities. In determining the fair value of acquired assets, standard valuation techniques were used including the market and income approach.

SECS

Effective July 19, 2006, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding common stock of SECS. The aggregate consideration paid by the Company to the SECS selling shareholders, including acquisition transaction costs of $21,833, was $3,482,346, of which $1,620,000 was paid at closing, and the Company issued 200,288 shares of common stock valued at approximately $1,400,000. Additional purchase price adjustments of $440,513 were paid in November 2006, to settle working capital adjustments. The Company filed a registration statement with the SEC on August 14, 2006 to register the shares of common stock issued to the former SECS shareholders, which was declared effective by the SEC on August 24, 2006.

NOTE 11 - SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY

Common Stock Issuance

On January 30, 2007, the Company sold an aggregate of 1,109,023 shares of the Company’s common stock (Common Stock) to twelve investors for aggregate proceeds of $10,092,109. The Company paid the placement agents of the offering a cash fee of 7% of the proceeds of the offering. The Company has received net proceeds of $9,337,891 from the offering.

The Common Stock was issued in a private placement transaction pursuant to Section 4(2) under the Securities Act of 1933. Pursuant to the terms of sale, the Company agreed to cause a resale registration statement covering the Common Stock to be filed no later than 30 days after the closing and declared effective no later than 120 days after the closing. If the Company failed to comply with the registration statement filing or effective date requirements, it would have been required to pay the investors a fee equal to 2% of the aggregate amount invested by the purchasers per each 30 day period of delay, not to exceed 10%. The Company accounts for such penalties as contingent liabilities, applying the accounting guidance of SFAS No. 5, “Accounting for Contingencies” (“FAS 5”). This accounting is consistent with views established by the Emerging Issues Task Force in its consensus set forth in EITF 05-04 and FASB Staff Positions FSP EITF 00-19-2 “Accounting for Registration Payment Arrangements”, which was issued December 21, 2006. Accordingly, the Company recognizes damages when it becomes probable that they will be incurred and amounts are reasonably estimable. The Company filed a resale registration statement on February 9, 2007 covering the Common Stock, which was declared effective by the SEC on March 2, 2007, which was within the agreed upon timeframe under the terms of sale. 

On April 12, 2006, the Company closed a purchase agreement with four selected institutional investors for the registered direct sale of 876,931 shares of common stock at an offering price of $7.00 per share. The Company paid the placement agent of the offering a cash fee of 6.5% of the proceeds of the offering. The Company received net proceeds of $5,528,166 from this offering. The Company made the sale pursuant to a registration statement declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 11, 2006.

On November 16, 2004, the Company completed a private placement with certain investors for an aggregate of 2,083,887 shares of its common stock and 2,083,887 common stock purchase warrants for $10,000,000. Under the terms of the sale, the investors were granted certain registration rights that provided for liquidated damages in the event the Company failed to timely perform under the registration rights agreements.
 
During the third quarter of fiscal 2006, the Company became aware that the SEC had recently announced its preferred interpretation of the accounting for common stock and warrants with registration rights under Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) 00-19, “Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed To, and Potentially Settled in the Company’s Own Stock,” and EITF 05-04,

 
F-27

WPCS INTERNATIONAL INCORPORATED AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 

 
“The Effect of a Liquidated Damages Clause on a Freestanding Financial Instrument Subject to EITF 00-19.” Although the EITF was still reviewing the guidance in EITF 05-04, the SEC concluded that under EITF 00-19, the common stock and warrants subject to registration rights where significant liquidated damages could be required to be paid to the holder of the instrument in the event the issuer fails to maintain the effectiveness of a registration statement for a preset time period does not meet the tests required for shareholders’ equity classification and, accordingly, must be reflected as temporary equity in the balance sheet until the conditions are eliminated. Additionally, the fair value of warrants should be recorded as a liability, with an offsetting reduction to shareholders’ equity, adjusted to market value at the end of each period. In analyzing instruments under EITF 00-19, the SEC concluded that the likelihood or probability related to the failure to maintain an effective registration statement was not a factor at that time.

During fiscal 2006, the warrant liability increased by $4,078,494, due to the increase in the market value of our common stock, resulting in us recording a net non-cash loss on fair value of warrants for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2006. The non-cash loss on warrants had no effect on our cash flows or liquidity.

On April 11, 2006, the Company entered into a waiver agreement with the institutional investors related to this private placement. Under the waiver, the parties agreed to modify the registration rights agreement associated with the common stock and warrants issued in November 2004 affected by EITF 00-19, thereby eliminating the penalty provisions that could have resulted from not maintaining an effective registration statement related to these common shares and shares underlying the warrants, and eliminating any similar non-cash charges in subsequent fiscal years and reclassified the amounts to permanent equity.

Common Stock Purchase Warrants

The Company sold an aggregate of 2,083,887 shares of common stock and 2,083,887 common stock purchase warrants on November 16, 2004, as discussed above. Each of these warrants is exercisable for a period of five years and was original issued at an exercise price of $8.40 per share. The exercise price of the warrants is subject to adjustment for subsequent lower price issuances by the Company, as well as customary adjustment provisions for stock splits, combinations, dividends and the like. As a result of the issuance of common stock at $6.99 per share to the selling shareholders of SECS, discussed above, the exercise price of 1,592,781 common stock purchase warrants were adjusted to $6.99 per share, and 320,741 additional warrants were issued under the “make-whole” provisions of the warrant agreement. The warrants are callable by the Company, upon 30 days notice, should the common stock trade at or above $25.20 per share for 25 out of 30 consecutive trading days. A maximum of 20% of the warrants may be called in any three-month period.

All unexercised warrants issued in connection with the company’s June 2003 private placement of common stock expired during fiscal year 2007.

ITEM 9 - CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE.

ITEM 9A - CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

(a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures.

Our management, with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as of April 30, 2007. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.

Based on our evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were designed at a reasonable assurance level and were effective as of April 30, 2007 to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act was recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms, and that such information was accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

(b) Changes in internal control over financial reporting.

We regularly review our system of internal control over financial reporting and make changes to our processes and systems to improve controls and increase efficiency, while ensuring that we maintain an effective internal control environment. Changes may include such activities as implementing new, more efficient systems, consolidating activities, and migrating processes.

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this Annual Report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (CD&A)
 
The following discussion and analysis of compensation arrangements of our named executive officers for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2007 should be read together with the compensation tables and related disclosures set forth below.
 
Compensation Philosophy and Objectives

We believe our success depends on the continued contributions of our named executive officers. Our named executive officers are primarily responsible for our growth and operations strategy, and the management of the day-to-day operations of our subsidiaries. Therefore, it is important to our success that we retain the services of these individuals to ensure our future success and prevent them from competing with us should their employment with us terminate.

Our overall compensation philosophy is to provide an executive compensation package that enables us to attract, retain and motivate executive officers to achieve our short-term and long-term business goals. We strive to apply a uniform philosophy regarding compensation of all employees, including members of senior management. This philosophy is based upon the premise that the achievements of the company result from the combined and coordinated efforts of all employees working toward common goals and objectives in a competitive, evolving market place. The goals of our compensation program are to align remuneration with business objectives and performance and to enable us to retain and competitively reward executive officers and employees who contribute to our long-term success. In making executive compensation and other employment compensation decisions, the Executive Committee considers achievement of certain criteria, some of which relate to our performance and others of which relate to the performance of the individual employee.
 
The Executive Committee will evaluate our compensation policies on an ongoing basis to determine whether they enable us to attract, retain and motivate key personnel. To meet these objectives, the Executive Committee may from time to time increase salaries, award additional stock options or provide other short and long-term incentive compensation to executive officers and other employees.

Compensation Program & Forms of Compensation

We provide our executive officers with a compensation package consisting of base salary and participation in benefit plans generally available to other employees. In setting total compensation, the Executive Committee considers individual and company performance, as well as market information regarding compensation paid by other companies in our industry.

In order to achieve the above goals, our total compensation packages include base salary, annual bonus, as well as long-term compensation in the form of stock options.

Base Salary. Salaries for our executive officers are initially set based on negotiation with individual executive officers at the time of recruitment and with reference to salaries for comparable positions in the industry for individuals of similar education and background to the executive officers being recruited. We also consider the individual’s experience, and expected contributions to our company. Base salary is continuously evaluated by competitive pay and individual job performance. Base salaries for executives are reviewed annually or more frequently should there be significant changes in responsibilities. In each case, we take into account the results achieved by the executive, his or her future potential, scope of responsibilities and experience, and competitive salary practices.

 
34


Bonus. A component of each executive officer’s potential annual compensation may take the form of a performance-based bonus. Contractually, our Executive Vice Presidents are entitled to receive an annual bonus equal to 3% of the annual profit before interest and taxes of the designated subsidiaries assigned to the him. Our CEO and CFO are entitled to an annual bonus, to be determined at the discretion of the Executive Committee, based on our financial performance and the achievement of the officer’s individual performance objectives.

Long-Term Incentives. Longer-term incentives are provided through stock options, which reward executives and other employees through the growth in value of our stock. The Executive Committee believes that employee equity ownership provides an incentive for employees to build stockholder value and serves to align the interests of employees with those of our stockholders. Grants of stock options to executive officers are based upon each officer’s relative position, responsibilities and contributions, with primary weight given to the executive officers’ relative rank and responsibilities. Initial stock option grants designed to recruit an executive officer may be based on negotiations with the officer and with reference to historical option grants to existing officers. Stock options are generally granted at an exercise price equal to the market price of our common stock on the date of grant and will provide value to the executive officers only when the price of our common stock increases over the exercise price.  Although the expenses of stock options affect our financial statements negatively, we continue to believe that this is a strong element of compensation that focuses the employees on financial and operational performance to create value for the long-term.

With regard to our option grant practice, the Executive Committee has the responsibility of approving stock option grants to all employees. Stock option grants for plan participants are generally determined within ranges established for each job level. These ranges are established based on our desired pay positioning relative to the competitive market. Specific recruitment needs are taken into account for establishing the levels of initial option grants. Annual option grants take into consideration a number of factors, including performance of the individual, job level, prior grants and competitive external levels. The goals of option grant guidelines are to ensure future grants remain competitive from a grant value perspective and to ensure option usage consistent with option pool forecasts. Based on the definition of fair market value in our stock option plan, options are granted at 100% of the closing sales price of our stock on the last market trading date prior to the grant date. We do not time the granting of our options with any favorable or unfavorable news released by us. Proximity of any awards to an earnings announcement or other market events is coincidental.

Executive Equity Ownership

We encourage our executives to hold an equity interest in our company. However, we do not have specific share retention and ownership guidelines for our executives.

Performance-Based Compensation and Financial Restatement

We have not considered or implemented a policy regarding retroactive adjustments to any cash or equity-based incentive compensation paid to our executives and other employees where such payments were predicated upon the achievement of certain financial results that were subsequently the subject of a financial restatement.

Tax and Accounting Considerations

Compliance with Internal Revenue Code Section 162(m). Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, restricts deductibility of executive compensation paid to our Chief Executive Officer and each of the four other most highly compensated executive officers holding office at the end of any year to the extent such compensation exceeds $1,000,000 for any of such officers in any year and does not qualify for an exception under Section 162(m) or related regulations. The Executive Committee’s policy is to qualify its executive compensation for deductibility under applicable tax laws to the extent practicable. Income related to stock options granted under our 2002 Stock Option Plan, the 2006 Incentive Stock Plan, and the 2007 Incentive Stock Plan, generally qualify for an exemption from these restrictions imposed by Section 162(m). In the future, the Executive Committee will continue to evaluate the advisability of qualifying its executive compensation for full deductibility.

Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation. Effective May 1, 2006, we adopted the fair value recognition provisions of FASB Statement 123(R) for stock-based compensation.

ITEM 13 - CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE

At the time of the following transactions, there were no affiliations between us and the other parties. As a result of these transactions, the other parties became affiliates. The obligations resulting from these transactions were ongoing after the close, resulting in payoffs to the other parties who became affiliates.

In connection with the acquisition of Walker Comm, we assumed a lease with a living trust established by Gary Walker, one of our Directors, who is the trustee and whose heirs are the beneficiaries of the trust. The lease is for a building and land located in Fairfield, California, which is occupied by our Walker Comm subsidiary. The lease calls for monthly rental payments of $4,642, with annual increases, calculated using the San Francisco-Oakland-San Jose Consolidated Metropolitan Statistical Area Consumer Price Index. For each of the fiscal years ended April 30, 2007, 2006, and 2005, the rent paid for this lease was $88,000. We believe the terms of this lease are no less favorable than those which could have been obtained between unrelated parties for similar transactions acting at arm’s length.

On August 22, 2003, we acquired all of the outstanding shares of Clayborn, our wholly owned subsidiary, in exchange for an aggregate $900,000 cash consideration and 68,871 newly issued shares of our common stock. The Clayborn stockholders consisted of David Gove, the former President of Clayborn, and his spouse. An additional $1,100,000 is due by September 30, 2007, payable in quarterly distributions, by payment to the Clayborn stockholders of 50% of the quarterly post tax profits, as defined, of Clayborn and a final payment of any remaining balance on that date. Through April 30, 2007, payments of $393,000 have been made to the former Clayborn stockholders and the total remaining due is $707,000.

On April 2, 2004, we acquired all of the issued and outstanding common stock of Heinz. We acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of Heinz from James Heinz, our Executive Vice President, for $1,000,000, as follows: (1) $700,000 of our common stock, based on the closing price of our common stock on March 30, 2004 of $11.76 per share, for an aggregate of 59,524 newly issued shares of our common stock and (2) $300,000 total cash consideration, of which $100,000 was paid at closing and a $200,000 non-interest bearing promissory note was issued. Of the $200,000, $75,000 was paid in April 2005, $75,000 was paid in April 2006 and $50,000 was paid in April 2007.

On November 24, 2004, we acquired all of the issued and outstanding common stock of Quality, of which Richard Schubiger, our Executive Vice President, owned 33.33%. The aggregate consideration we paid to the Quality selling stockholders, net of acquisition transaction costs, was $7,457,913, of which $6,700,000 was paid pro rata to the Quality stockholders at closing. Additional purchase price adjustments of $757,913 were paid in June 2005 to settle working capital adjustments and income tax reimbursements related to our Internal Revenue Code Section 338(h)(10) election. For income tax purposes, this election results in a stepped up basis of assets and liabilities and will result in future income tax deductions.

On July 19, 2006, we acquired SECS and we lease our Sarasota, Florida location from a trust, of which one of the former shareholders of SECS, is the trustee. For the year ended April 30, 2007, the rent paid for this lease was $40,315.

On March 30, 2007, we lease our Trenton, New Jersey location from Voacolo Properties LLC, of which the former shareholders of Voacolo, are the members. For the year ended April 30, 2007, the rent paid for this lease was $4,500.

ITEM 14 - PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTANT FEES AND SERVICES

Audit Fees. The aggregate fees billed by our independent auditors, for professional services rendered for the audit of our annual financial statements for the years ended April 30, 2007 and 2006, and for the reviews of the financial statements included in our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q or 10-QSB during the fiscal year were $278,471 and $250,161, respectively.

Audit Related Fees. We incurred fees to our independent auditors of $14,400 and $57,150, respectively, for audit related fees during the fiscal years ended April 30, 2007 and 2006. These fees were primarily related to the review of our registration statements prior to filing with the SEC.

Tax and Other Fees. We did not incur fees to our independent auditors for tax compliance services during the fiscal years ended April 30, 2007 and 2006.

Consistent with SEC policies and guidelines regarding audit independence, the Audit Committee is responsible for the pre-approval of all audit and permissible non-audit services provided by our principal accountants on a case-by-case basis. Our Audit Committee has established a policy regarding approval of all audit and permissible non-audit services provided by our principal accountants. Our Audit Committee pre-approves these services by category and service. Our Audit Committee has pre-approved all of the services provided by our principal accountants.
