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

INDEMNIFICATION OF CUSTOMERS |
Our agreements with customers generally require us to indemnify the customer against claims
that our software infringes third party patent, copyright, trademark or other proprietary
rights. Such indemnification obligations are generally limited in a variety of

September 30, 2008 we had not experienced any material losses related to these
indemnification obligations and no material claims with respect thereto were outstanding. We
do not expect significant claims related to these indemnification obligations, and
consequently, we have not established any related reserves.

Overview
Sales for the three months ended September 30, 2008 of $2,724,000 decreased 7% from sales of
$2,928,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2007, but represented a 7% increase from sales
achieved for the second quarter of 2008 of $2,538,000. Sales for the nine months ended September
30, 2008 were $7,934,000, which compares with sales of $9,325,000 for the nine months ended
September 30, 2007.
Veramark incurred a net loss of $36,000, or less than $0.01 per share, for the three months ended
September 30, 2008, an improvement from both the net loss of $260,000, or $0.03 per share, for the
second quarter of 2008, and the net loss of $60,000, or $0.01 per share for the third quarter of
2007. For the nine months ended September 30, 2008, the net loss of $490,000 or $0.05 per share,
compares with a net loss of $263,000, or $0.03 per share for the nine months ended September 30,
2007.
Orders received from customers for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 of $7,828,000 are
virtually identical to orders received of $7,818,000 for the first nine months of 2007. Year to
date orders for VeraSMART have increased 47% from the prior year, while orders for eCAS and other
products have decreased 10% on a year to date basis.
Sales
Sales of VeraSMART products and services for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008
increased 28% and 17%, respectively, from the same three and nine month periods of 2007. During the
third quarter, major installations of VeraSMART were completed at AAA-Florida, The Marine Corp Air
Station-Miramar, Mercy Health Partners, Metro Health Systems, and Toyota. VeraSMART products and
services accounted for 33% of total revenues for the first nine months of 2008, up from 24% of
total sales during the same period in 2007.
Revenues generated from managed service contracts decreased 34% for the three months ended
September 30, 2008 and 36% for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 as compared with results
for the same three and nine month periods of 2007. The decrease in year to date revenues from the
prior periods results from a non-recurring portion of our managed service contract with Sears
Holding Corporation (SHC) recorded in the first quarter of 2007. Recurring revenues from managed
service contracts, exclusive of SHC, increased 26% for the first nine months of 2008 as compared
with the same nine months of 2007.

Sales of the eCAS products and services for the third quarter of 2008 decreased 8% from the third
quarter of 2007, and 12% for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 from the same nine months of
2007. eCAS sales continue to be impacted by a continued slow decline in orders received from the
Companys largest channel of distribution for eCAS, Avaya Inc and Avayas master distribution
partners.
Cost of Sales
As a result of lower sales volumes achieved thus far in 2008 versus 2007, gross margins (defined
as sales minus cost of sales) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008 of
$2,003,000, and $5,790,00 , decreased from gross margins of $2,223,000 and $6,882,000
respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007. As a percentage of sales, the
gross margin for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 represents 73% of sales, which compares
to 74% of sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2007.
Operating Expenses
Engineering and software development expenses, net of software capitalization, of $386,000 for the
three months ended September 30, 2008 and $1,018,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008,
increased 20% and 17% respectively, from expenses levels of $323,000 and $870,000 for the same
three and nine month periods of 2007. During the third quarter, $223,000 of software development
costs were capitalized, up from $178,000 of development costs capitalized in the third quarter of
2007. For the nine months ended September 30, 2008, capitalized development costs totaled $636,000,
a 9% decrease from development costs capitalized during the first nine months of 2007. The chart
below summarizes total costs incurred for engineering and software development, development costs
capitalized, and the resulting expense charged against operations for the three and none months
ended September 30, 2008 and 2007.

Selling, general, and administrative (SG&A) expenses of $1,683,000 for the three months ended
September 30, 2008 decreased $297,000, or 15%, from $1,980,000 for the three months ended September
30, 2007. For the nine months ended September 30, 2008, SGA expenses of $5,325,000 decreased 16%
from the $6,319,000 incurred for the first nine months of September 30, 2007, a reduction of
$994,000. The reduction in SG&A expense reflects ongoing restructuring efforts designed not only
to reduce costs, but also to increase and streamline operating efficiencies. Total employment has
been reduced from 2007 levels, which combined with other organizational efforts have reduced
expenses by nearly $1 million, primarily in the form of payroll and administrative costs.
13
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash and short term investments totaled $1,551,000 at September 30, 2008, a decrease of $655,000
from the December 31, 2007 balance of $2,206,000. A third quarter reduction in cash balances was
anticipated in the Companys annual operating plan and is partially attributable to a reduction in
accrued compensation costs at December 31, 2007, which were liquidated in 2008.
Accounts receivable at September 30, 2008 of $1,333,000 increased $30,000 from the December 31,
2007 balance of $1,303,000. The reserve for bad debts of $40,000 at September 30, 2008 increased
from $30,000 at December 31, 2007 due to a receivable from a single customer currently ninety days
past due. Payment on this account is expected during the fourth quarter.
Prepaid expenses and other current assets of $346,000 at September 30, 2008 increased from $254,000
at December 31, 2007. The increase reflects the renewal of key business insurance policies during
the first half of 2008, the economic value of which extend through 2008 and beyond, and an increase
in the utilization of consulting and other professional services to be rendered over future
quarters.
Capital equipment purchases for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 totaled $151,000, which
compares with capital equipment purchases of $80,000 for the first nine months of 2007. Through
September 30, 2008, we have disposed of approximately $2 million of obsolete computer equipment,
office furnishings and furniture, the majority of which had been fully depreciated. The residual
book value of those assets, totaling $18,000, has been charged against current operations. We
expect to invest approximately $200,000 in capital improvements during the fourth quarter of 2008
to update infrastructure.
Software development costs capitalized and included on the balance sheet at September 30, 2008 of
$2,822,000 have been reduced $216,000, or 7% from the December 31, 2007 total of $3,038,000. For
the nine months ended September 30, 2008 developments costs capitalized of $636,000 were $67,000
less than development costs capitalized for the first nine months of 2007. The amortization of
development costs capitalized in prior periods and charged to cost of sales, increased 24%, from
$686,000 for the first nine months of 2007 to $852,000 for the first nine months of 2008.
Pension assets, representing the cash surrender value of company-owned life insurance policies
intended to fund future pension obligations, total $3,206,000 at September 30, 2008 as compared
with $3,210,000 at December 31, 2007. These cash surrender values are also readily available to
fund current operations in the event that is deemed necessary.
Total current liabilities at September 30, 2008 of $5,122,000 decreased 4%, or $209,000, from
$5,331,000 at December 31, 2007, resulting primarily from a $345,000 reduction in accrued
compensation costs. The decrease in accrued compensation includes the settlement of contractual
obligations with the Companys former CEO and a reduction in accrued salary and benefit costs
realized from restructuring and organizational changes undertaken throughout 2008. Accounts
payable and other accrued liabilities as of September 30, 2008 decreased $51,000 and $106,000,
respectively, from December 31, 2007 balances. Offsetting these reductions was an increase in
deferred revenues of $259,000 from $3,369,000 at December 31, 2007 to $3,628,000 at September 30,
2008. Deferred revenues, representing a major component of our current backlog, consist of orders
received from customers for a variety of services, including maintenance, training, and
implementation service, which have not yet been provided, and therefore have not been recognized
as revenue in the Statement of Operations. It is expected that the majority of those services will
be performed during the next twelve months and the associated revenues recorded.
Stockholders Equity of $575,000 at September 30, 2008 compares with equity of $992,000 at December
31, 2007 primarily reflecting the net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 of
$490,000. During 2008, 119,000 stock options were exercised and employees purchased 25,120 shares
of common stock utilizing the Companys employee stock purchase plan. Total proceeds from those
transactions totaled $69,000.
In light of the Companys total cash and investment position, combined with current operating
expense levels and the absence of debt, it is managements opinion that more than sufficient
resources exist to fund operations and carry out strategic initiatives for the next twelve months
and beyond.

16
Critical Accounting Policies
The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions
that affect amounts reported therein. The most significant of these involving difficult or complex
judgments include:
|
|
|
Capitalization of software development costs |
|
|
|
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts |
In each situation, management is required to make estimates about the effects of matters or
future events that are inherently uncertain.
The Companys revenue consists of revenues from the licensing of software to resellers and end
user customers; fees for services rendered to include installation, training, implementation, and
customer maintenance contracts; and the outsourcing or hosting of services.
The Company recognizes software license revenue under Statement of Position No 97-2 Software
Revenue Recognition as amended by Statement of Position No. 98-9, Software Revenue Recognition
With Respect to Certain Transactions, Emerging Issues Task Force 00-21, Revenue Arrangements with
Multiple Deliverables, and related interpretations.
Sales of licensed software sold directly to an end user customer are recognized as revenue
upon delivery and installation of the software at the customer site. Sales of licensed software to
a reseller are recognized as revenue when delivery is made to the reseller. Regardless of the form
of sale no revenue is recognized without persuasive evidence of an arrangement existing. Persuasive
evidence is determined to be a signed purchase order received from the customer or an equivalent
form for those customers lacking a formalized purchase order system. In the case of VeraSMART
sales, a software license agreement signed by both parties is often required in addition to a
purchase order or equivalent. Additionally, revenue is only recognized when a selling price is
fixed or determinable and collectability of the receivable is deemed to be probable.
Service revenues such as training, installation and implementation are recognized when the
service is complete and acknowledged by the customer, regardless as to whether the sale is on a
direct basis or through a reseller arrangement.
Fees charged to customers for post-contract Customer Support are recognized ratably over the
term of the contract. Costs related to maintenance obligations are expensed as incurred.
Sales which constitute a multiple-element arrangement are accounted for by determining if the
elements can be accounted for as separate accounting units, and if so, by applying values to those
units for which there is vendor specific objective evidence of their fair value. We use the
residual method to apply any remaining balance to the remaining elements of the arrangement. More
specifically, this methodology applies when there is embedded maintenance (post-contract customer
support) involved in the sale of a software license, or when the sale of a software license is made
in conjunction with installation services. In the latter case, the recognition of the software
license is deferred until installation is completed.
17
The Companys revenues generated through hosting solutions are recognized using the
proportional performance method. Revenues are recognized in the month services are rendered and
earned under service agreements with clients where service fees are fixed or determinable.
Contracts can be terminated with 90 days written notice. All services provided by us through the
date of cancellation are due and payable under the contract terms.
The Company believes its revenue recognition policies are appropriate, in all circumstances,
and that its policies are reflective of complexities arising from customer arrangements involving
such features as maintenance, warranty agreements, license agreements, and other normal course of
business arrangements.
The Company capitalizes software development costs when technological feasibility has been
established for the software in accordance with SFAS No. 86, Accounting for the Costs of Computer
Software to be Sold, Leased, or Otherwise Marketed. Such capitalized costs are amortized on a
product-by-product basis over their economic life or the ratio of current revenues to current and
anticipated revenues from such software, whichever provides the greater amortization. The Company
periodically reviews the carrying value of capitalized software development costs and impairments
are recognized in the results of operations when the expected future undiscounted operating cash
flow derived from the capitalized software is less than its carrying value. Should the Company
inaccurately determine when a product reaches technological feasibility or the economic life of a
product, results could differ materially from those reported. Veramark uses what it believes are
reasonable assumptions and where applicable, established valuation techniques in making its
estimates.
The Company maintains allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the
potential inability of its customers to make required payments. Management specifically analyzes
accounts receivable, historical bad debts, credit concentrations and customer payment terms when
evaluating the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts.
The Company sponsors an unfunded Supplemental Executive Retirement Program (SERP), which is a
nonqualified plan that provides certain key employees a defined pension benefit. In order to
properly record the net present value of future pension obligations a number of assumptions are
required to be made by Companys management. These assumptions include years of service, life
expectancies, and projected future salary increases for each participant. In addition, management
must make assumptions with regard to the proper long-term interest and liability discount rates to
be applied to these future obligations.
Should the Company need to alter any of these assumptions, there is the potential for
significant adjustments to future projected pension liabilities.
18
Issues and Risks
The following factors, among others discussed herein and in the Companys filings under the
Act, could cause actual results and future events to differ materially from those set forth
or contemplated in the forward-looking statements: economic, competitive, governmental and
technological factors, increased operating costs, failure to obtain necessary outside
financing, risks related to natural disasters and financial market fluctuations. Such
factors also include:
Intellectual Property Rights
Veramark regards its software as proprietary and attempts to protect it with a combination of
copyright, trademark and trade secret protections, employee and third-party non-disclosure
agreements and other
methods of protection. Despite those precautions, it may be possible for unauthorized third
parties to copy certain portions of Veramarks products, reverse engineer or obtain and use
information that Veramark regards as proprietary. The laws of some foreign countries do not
protect Veramarks proprietary rights to the same extent as the laws of the United States.
Any misappropriation of Veramarks intellectual property could have a material adverse effect
on its business and results of operations. Furthermore, although Veramark take steps to
prevent unlawful infringement of others intellectual property, there can be no assurance
that third parties will not assert infringement claims against Veramark in the future with
respect to current or future products. Any such assertion could require Veramark to enter
into royalty arrangements or result in costly litigation.
New Products and Services
Veramark has made significant investments in research, development and marketing for new
products, services and technologies, including the VeraSMART® software offering and its
service bureau outsourced solutions. Significant revenue from new product and service
investments may not be achieved for a number of years, if at all. Moreover, if such
products or services are profitable, operating margins may not be as high as the
margins historically experienced by Veramark.
Declines in Demand for Software
If overall market demand for software and computer devices generally, as well as call
accounting software or enterprise level products specifically, declines, or corporate
spending for such products declines, Veramarks revenue will be adversely affected.
Additionally, Veramarks revenues would be unfavorably impacted if customers reduce their
purchases of new software products or upgrades to existing products.
Product Development Schedule
The development of software products is a complex and time-consuming process. New products
and enhancements to existing products can require long development and testing periods.
Significant delays in new product releases or significant problems in creating new products,
particularly any delays in future releases of the VeraSMART® suite of products, could
adversely affect Veramark revenues.
Competition
Veramark experiences intensive competition across all markets for its products and services.
Some competing firms have greater name recognition and more financial, marketing and
technological resources than Veramark. These competitive pressures may result in decreased
sales volumes, price reductions, and/or increased operating costs, such as for marketing and
sales incentives, resulting in lower revenues, gross margins and operating income.
Marketing and Sales
Veramarks marketing and distribution strategy is founded on building mutually beneficial
relationships with companies that have established distribution networks. Some sell
privately labeled, customized products developed and manufactured by Veramark to their
specific specifications, while others resell Veramarks products. Any loss of the continued
availability of those relationships could have a material adverse effect on Veramarks
business and results of operations.
19
Item 3 Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
The Company has no long-term bank debt obligations. The Company has no foreign currency
exchange risk and has no foreign currency exchange contracts.
Item 4 Controls and Procedures
Based upon an evaluation as of the end of the period covered by this report, the Companys
Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Companys disclosure
controls and procedures are effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to
be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934 is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified
in the SECs rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to the Companys management,
including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar
functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. There have been
no changes in the Companys internal controls over financial reporting, that occurred during the
period covered by this report, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to
materially affect the Companys internal controls over financial reporting.
The Companys disclosure controls and procedures and internal controls over financial
reporting provide reasonable, but not absolute, assurance that all deficiencies in design or
operation of those control systems, or all instances of errors or fraud, will be prevented or
detected. Those control systems are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving the goals
of those systems in light of the Companys resources and nature of the Companys business
operations. The Companys disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial
reporting remain subject to risks of human error and the risk that controls can be circumvented for
wrongful purposes by one or more individuals in management or non-management positions.
