ITEM 1. BUSINESS

Unless otherwise indicated in this registration statement or the context otherwise requires, all references in this registration statement to “Elandia,” the “Company,” “us,” “our” or “we” are to Elandia, Inc., our predecessor company, Centra Industries, Inc., and their respective subsidiaries.

History of the Company

Centra Industries Inc.

The Company was organized on July 27, 2001 as a Delaware corporation under the name Centra Industries, Inc. (“Centra”). Centra served as a holding company for subsidiaries in the communications industry and the underground boring and construction business, including Midwest Cable Communications of Arkansas, Inc. (“Midwest”).

Reorganization

On August 1, 2003, our underground boring and construction business became insolvent. As a result, on August 1, 2003, the Company’s main operating subsidiary filed a voluntary petition for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. In addition, on January 8, 2004, we filed for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Western District of Arkansas. From January 8, 2004 through September 14, 2004, we operated our business and managed our assets in the ordinary course as a debtor-in-possession, and obtained Bankruptcy Court approval for transactions outside the ordinary course of business. On September 14, 2004, the Court confirmed a Joint Plan of Reorganization of the Company and its operating subsidiary. By virtue of the confirmation order, we emerged from bankruptcy and obtained a discharge pursuant to Section 1141 of the Bankruptcy Code. Pursuant to our plan of reorganization, we cancelled all then outstanding shares of our common stock, issued 108,000 new shares of our common stock and paid $110,000 to our unsecured creditors. Also, under our plan of reorganization, Stanford Venture Capital Holdings, Inc., our debtor-in-possession lender, converted approximately $2,600,000 of its secured claims into 2,038,500 shares of our common stock and warrants to purchase 1,876,500 shares of our common stock. These warrants, exercisable at $.001 per share, were all subsequently exercised. Centra was renamed eLandia Solutions, Inc. and then renamed Elandia, Inc.

eLandia Technologies Merger

On December 31, 2004, we merged with eLandia Technologies, Inc. (“Technologies”) through a one-for-one share exchange with the stockholders of Technologies. We issued 446,513 shares of our common stock in connection with this merger. As a result of the merger, Technologies became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.

Sale of Centra Operations

Effective December 15, 2005, the Company sold one hundred percent of the outstanding common stock of its wholly-owned subsidiaries Centra Construction, Inc., Centra Wireless Services, Inc. and Razorback, Inc., to an unrelated foreign national. All three of these subsidiaries were part of the discontinued operations, and were dormant for the year ended December 31, 2005. Under the terms of the sale, the foreign national assumed all liabilities of the subsidiaries which consisted of $464,640 of payroll tax liabilities that arose prior to our filing of bankruptcy in exchange for all the assets of the subsidiaries which consisted of $1,200 of cash. We recorded a gain of $463,440 from discontinued operations as a result of this transaction.

Acquisition of AST Telecom, LLC

Effective January 31, 2006, we acquired AST Telecom, LLC (“AST”), a provider of wireless telephone services in American Samoa. In connection with this acquisition, we issued a total of 4,225,726 shares of our common stock, of which 2,739,008 shares were issued to Stanford International Bank, Ltd. (“Stanford”) (or its designee) for Stanford’s 64.8% ownership interest in AST, and 1,486,718 shares were issued to the other members of AST (or its designee), for the other members’ 35.2% ownership interest in AST.

Datec Merger

On February 1, 2006, we completed an arrangement under the laws of New Brunswick, Canada with Datec Group Ltd, a New Brunswick corporation (“Datec”), pursuant to which we acquired the South Pacific operations of Datec. In connection with the arrangement, we issued 4,085,126 shares of our common stock to the stockholders of Datec.

Reverse Splits

On August 15, 2005, our Board of Directors authorized, and our stockholders approved, a 9-for-10 reverse stock split of our issued and outstanding common stock. This reverse stock split was effective September 14, 2005.

On February 17, 2006, the holders of a majority of our outstanding common stock approved an amendment to our Articles of Incorporation to effect a 3-for-5 reverse stock split of the issued and outstanding common stock, effective March 9, 2006.

The documents that have been filed by us as exhibits that pertain to the transactions set forth below contain pre-reverse split numbers. However, in order to accurately reflect what is held by our stockholders currently, all references to shares, options and warrants hereafter in this registration statement have been adjusted to reflect the post-reverse split amounts.

Current Business

We are a wireless telecommunications service provider and an information solutions and services provider. We offer a wide range of technology products, internet access services, professional services and other solutions to certain islands in the South Pacific, in geographic locations which we believe have traditionally been underserved. The products and services we offer in each of the geographic areas we serve vary depending on the infrastructure, existing telecommunication systems and the needs of the region. In some regions we operate retail stores where our products and services are offered and sold. Generally, our telecommunications operations include long-distance service, wireless coverage and internet access. Our software solutions include Microsoft products, database applications, accounting applications and other system applications. We also offer peripheral products including fax machines, copiers, telephones and general office equipment. Our hardware offerings include PBX hardware, servers, routers and switching systems. In addition, we offer professional services to assist our customers in implementing customized solutions to meet their business needs. These services include application development, systems integration, training, maintenance and support.

Our strategy is to be a one-stop source for technology solutions throughout the regions in which we operate. We believe that we have identified regions that are in the beginning stages of technological development. We believe that as we develop our customer base and as these communities grow and become more technologically advanced, our business will also grow. We also believe that as our business and sales grow in these regions, we will develop a platform that will enable us to expand our operations into other regions.

We currently conduct business operations through several operating subsidiaries in four geographic segments: (1) AST does business in the Samoas, which includes American Samoa and our wireless initiatives in Samoa (formerly Western Samoa); (2) Datec PNG Pty Limited does business in Papua New Guinea; (3) several entities listed on the chart that follows do business in Fiji and Other Pacific Island Nations, which includes New Zealand, Australia, Tonga, Samoa, The Solomon Islands, Vanuatu and Cook Islands; and (4) North America, including the Caribbean, which includes parent company operations and assets held for sale or development by eLandia Technologies, Inc.

Except as otherwise stated, these subsidiaries are wholly-owned, subject to nominal qualifying shares. We hold a 50% ownership interest in Datec PNG Pty Limited through our wholly owned subsidiary Generic Technology Limited. Steamships Trading Company Pty Ltd, a subsidiary of John Swire & Sons (PNG) Ltd., holds the remaining 50% ownership interest in Datec PNG Pty Limited.

The Samoas

Wireless

We conduct our American Samoa operations primarily through our wholly-owned subsidiary AST. As of the date of this registration statement, AST is the only non-government owned provider of mobile services in American Samoa, under the Blue Sky Communications brand (“Blue Sky”), and operates a global system for mobile communications, or GSM, network in the 1900 MHz band. AST has been a provider of mobile services in American Samoa since February 2003. Through AST, we are the dominant provider of wireless services throughout American Samoa, with more than 70% of the market share and over 15,000 subscribers. Our average revenue per user (ARPU) per month for the year ended December 31, 2005 was $33.31 per month. The average rate per minute charged to our customers for the year ended December 31, 2005 was $0.16 per minute.

Table of Contents

In July 2006, American Samoa had 57,794 inhabitants. The number of cellular phones in American Samoa has increased dramatically since the mid-1990’s. We expect this trend to continue and hope to increase our number of subscribers accordingly.

For our wireless operations, we utilize a PCS broadband license for American Samoa granted by the United States Federal Communications Commission (FCC). This license was granted to us on May 23, 2005 and expires on June 23, 2015. We provide wireless services through a Nortel network that we own, which includes 12 cell towers to provide primary wireless coverage across American Samoa and a number of smaller cell sites for coverage in areas of low reception. Commencing in March 2003, AST began upgrading its networks to enhance coverage reliability by relocating fiber optic cable to underground facilities. Our network is designed to be easily expanded with the growth of our customer base and modified to support future products and services, as new telecommunications technology becomes economically viable in American Samoa. We operate both circuit-switched and Voice over Internet Provider (VoIP) circuits for voice transmissions, taking advantage of the latest technology in bandwidth management, compression and quality of service management where appropriate.

Strategy for Wireless Services

Our business strategy in American Samoa is to deliver high-quality and convenient wireless service, while maximizing our network coverage. We attract new customers by offering simple and affordable prepaid wireless services, with coverage anywhere on American Samoa’s main island of Tuitilia. Our commitment to customer service and network reliability provides consumers with a selection of wireless services that exceeds what is customary in the South Pacific region, including Short Message Service (SMS) messaging and a call center with directory assistance available 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Our per-minute, prepaid wireless service enables customers to actively control their wireless usage and appeals to consumers who are otherwise deterred by the price and perceived complexity of traditional wireless services. New prepaid customers may purchase a phone from one of our retail locations in American Samoa or activate an existing phone. With the purchase of a prepaid Subscriber Identity Module (SIM) card, service can be activated and is available for as little as $5 per month. Our customers can replenish their prepaid wireless services by purchasing recharge cards from our Laufou Plaza retail location or from our distribution partners at more than 200 retail locations throughout American Samoa. We also offer more traditional post-paid wireless services, designed for our larger business customers. Our post-paid services differ from those of most other wireless providers as we do not require long-term commitments or contracts. Our billing options and pricing plans are designed to be simple and easy for customers to understand. Monthly rates for our post-paid wireless plans range from $24.95 to $99.95 and do not include long distance charges, which vary by country.

Internet Service

In August 2000, we began offering full-service internet access in American Samoa. For our larger business customers, we are a reseller of high speed, internet access through Digital Subscriber Line (DSL) connection technology, which offers connection speeds significantly faster than a traditional dial-up modem connection. This dedicated always-on internet connectivity does not interfere with wireline telephone service. We also offer standard dial-up and broadband internet access service for smaller businesses and residential customers. We offer wireless internet access service for mobile computer users with wide-area wireless network interface cards, enabling access to local area or world wide networks and providing full access to e-mail, intranet, corporate applications and full web browsing where General Packet Radio Service network service is available. For our residential customers, monthly rates for internet access services are $24.95 for dial-up service and $75.00 for DSL or broadband service. For our business customers, internet access is provided by bandwidth amounts. Monthly rates range from $150.00 for 128 kilobits per second to $800.00 for 1024 kilobits per second.

The convergence of voice and data technology has resulted in lower costs for transmission and backhaul, the process of transmitting data from a remote site to a central site, for our internet access operations. Through wireless technology, many of our remote and indoor cell sites are able to backhaul voice and data services on the same IP network. Our larger cell sites convert signals into an IP format for backhaul on a secure data network. As a result of these two enhancements, we are able to reduce the number of our leased fiber circuits or replace our more expensive fiber circuits with wireless technology.

Strategy for Internet Services

Our market opportunity as an internet service provider (ISP) is linked to growth in the demand for internet service in American Samoa. As the demand for connectivity to the Internet continues to grow and the population recognizes that internet access significantly enhances communication, we will expand our services and product offerings to appeal to consumers. Our ISP operations are based in Laufou Plaza and include a retail location and a direct sales team.

Equal Access Service

In September 2005, Blue Sky became one of two equal access long distance service providers to wireline customers in American Samoa. With equal access long distance, our customers choose Blue Sky as an alternative long distance company by dialing 1 + the area code + the telephone number to place their long distance calls on the Blue Sky network. As of January 1, 2006, Blue Sky managed 434 equal access long distance accounts.

Wireless Business Operations

Market Opportunity. As of July 2006, the estimated population of American Samoa was approximately 57,794. We believe that there were approximately 22,000 wireless subscribers on the island of American Samoa as of January 1, 2006. The majority of existing wireless customers in American Samoa utilize prepaid services. Based on our market penetration and the demographics of American Samoa, we consider the market for wireless services to be mature. We believe that future revenues for our wireless services in American Samoa will increase proportionally with economic improvements in the country. We will expand our wireless products and offerings and differentiate our business by further enhancing our customer service and extending our network. Recognition of the Blue Sky brand and the likelihood of consumers to associate Blue Sky with high quality and value are essential to expanding our presence throughout American Samoa.

Sales and Distribution. Our sales approach is to increase our market penetration in American Samoa, while minimizing expenses associated with sales, distribution and marketing. Approximately 93% of our customers utilize prepaid wireless services. Our customers can activate new service by purchasing SIM cards and replenish their prepaid wireless services by purchasing recharge cards from our retail stores and authorized dealers. We have two retail stores in American Samoa and more than 200 authorized dealer distribution locations. Our post-paid customers, who are primarily long-standing businesses or individual customers, receive service and attention from our direct sales team and are billed each month. Access and use of the Blue Sky wireless services and products, network and services are designed to allow potential customers to make informed decisions with little or no sales assistance.

Marketing and Brand Recognition. We advertise in publications and on the radio in American Samoa and across the South Pacific region. Consumer recognition of our brand benefits from the small size of American Samoa. The success of our future advertising initiatives for new products and services will depend on a favorable consumer response to the Blue Sky brand.

International Network Access. For network access to the United States and other international locations, we own and operate two satellite earth stations with links to Hawaii and California through two downlink sites. To ensure backup capability and flexibility in routing traffic, these downlink sites are tied together by a leased fiber connection. We also offer long distance or international call services through the sale of prepaid long distance cards.

Network Operations. The quality and value of our wireless service reflects our ability to offer customers a reliable, high quality wireless network that provides continuous coverage across American Samoa. In September 2003, AST began upgrading its networks to further enhance the quality of its coverage, in spite of the geographical challenges posed by the terrain of American Samoa. We believe that this strategy enables us to operate superior networks that will support planned customer growth and high usage. In addition, this reduces our need to compete with other providers solely on wireless plan pricing. To increase overall usage of Blue Sky wireless services throughout American Samoa, we plan to attract new customers through the proven quality of our networks and to continue to encourage our existing customers to utilize Blue Sky wireless services for all of their telephone communications.

Competition

We believe that the primary competitive determinants for providers of telecommunications and internet access services in American Samoa include network reliability, high-quality service, effective customer support, competitive pricing, effective marketing, ease of use, and the scope of geographic coverage. We believe that we will be able to adequately address all of these factors for the foreseeable future.

The market for Internet access services in American Samoa is competitive, characterized by ever-increasing access speeds and consistently falling per-user prices. American Samoa Telecommunications Company (ASTCA) is our primary competitor and the only competitor of significant size in the market for wireless telecommunication services. ASTCA is owned and operated by the American Samoa Government and operates a code division multiple access (CDMA) network with approximately 7,000 subscribers and has substantial capital resources, market presence and brand name recognition. We also compete with a few resellers of wireless services on a limited basis. These resellers do not hold wireless licenses or own facilities in American Samoa. Resellers buy wireless telephone capacity from a licensed carrier and then resell services through their own distribution network to customers.

In addition to ASTCA, we believe that there are many early-stage companies that may compete with us on a smaller scale. However, we believe that the early stage of development of the competitors creates a natural barrier to market entry. Additional barriers to entry include access to capital resources, access to the latest technology, limited network capacity for incoming and outgoing communications and the ability to recruit and retain talented local employees. Continuing technological advances in the communications field make it difficult for us to predict the nature and extent of additional future competition. In the future, we may face competition from companies that offer new technologies, such as VoIP, and other services, including cable television access, wireline services and internet access services.

As wireless service becomes a viable alternative to traditional wireline phone service, we are increasingly competing directly with ASTCA. Globally, local and long distance wireline carriers have begun to advertise aggressively in the face of increased competition from wireless carriers and offering unlimited calling plans and bundled services that include wireless and data services. However, as of the date of this registration statement, we have not observed such market activity in American Samoa. Some competitors have announced unlimited service plans at rates similar to our plan rates in markets in which we have launched service. Competition has caused, and may continue to cause, market prices for two–way wireless products and services to decline slightly. Additionally, as a wireless provider we are increasingly competing to provide both voice and non–voice services, including data transmission, text messaging, e–mail and internet access.

While we have observed an increasing trend toward the consolidation of wireless service providers on a global scale, we have not observed this trend in the market for wireless services in American Samoa. If this trend eventually extends to American Samoa, resulting in larger competitors with considerable capital resources and extensive network coverage, we may not be able to successfully compete with these larger companies.

Our ability to compete successfully will depend, in part, on our ability to distinguish the Blue Sky service from competing services through our marketing initiatives and by anticipating and responding to other industry-wide market indicators, including the introduction of new services, changes in consumer preferences, demographic trends, economic conditions, geographic-feasibility of technology, competitors’ discount pricing and bundling strategies. These indicators, combined with our inability to quickly and adequately respond to changes in the market could adversely affect our operating margins, market penetration and our ability to retain customers. Some wireless providers in our market have substantially greater financial resources than we do and may be able to offer prospective customers discounts or equipment subsidies that are substantially greater than we could offer. While we believe that our cost structure and differentiated wireless services provide us with the means to effectively respond to price competition, we cannot predict the effect that market forces or the conduct of other operators may have on our business. We believe that the market for wireless services in American Samoa will likely become more competitive as a result of overall industry changes, a trend toward bundled services and a trend toward price-based competition.

Government Regulation

The licensing, construction, modification, operation, sale, ownership and interconnection arrangements of wireless communications networks are regulated to varying degrees by Congress, the FCC and state, territorial, local governments. Decisions by these bodies could significantly impact the competitive market structure for wireless providers and the relationships between wireless providers and other carriers. Government mandates may impose significant financial obligations upon us and other wireless providers. We are unable to predict the scope, pace or financial impact of legal or policy changes that these agencies or governments could adopt.

Licensing of PCS Systems. We hold a 30 MHZ B-Block broadband PCS license granted by the FCC for our wireless operations in America Samoa. Broadband PCS systems are generally used for two-way voice applications. American Samoa comprises one PCS market.

The FCC generally requires holders of these licenses to meet certain threshold qualifications, based upon financial criteria, for a specified period of time. A failure by an entity to maintain the qualifications to hold such licenses could result in the ineligibility to hold licenses for which the FCC’s minimum coverage requirements have not been met, the triggering of FCC unjust enrichment rules and the acceleration of installment payments owed to the FCC. As of the date of this registration statement, our PCS license is in good standing with the FCC.

All PCS licenses are issued for a 10-year term, at the end of which they must be renewed. Our PCS license was issued in May 2005 and expires in May 2015. Licenses acquired through transfer or assignment or from splitting a license are subject to the original license term. The FCC rules include a formal presumption that a PCS license will be renewed, a “renewal expectancy,” if the PCS licensee (1) has provided substantial service during its past license term, and (2) has substantially complied with applicable FCC rules and policies and the Communications Act of 1934, as amended by the Telecommunications Act of 1996 (the “Communications Act”).

PCS licensees are required to enable regulators to coordinate frequency usage with existing fixed microwave licensees in the 1850 to 1990 MHz band. A PCS licensee may require microwave licensees to return their operating authorizations to the FCC after providing six months written notice of the intent to initiate a PCS system within the interference range of such microwave licensee, absent an agreement from affected broadband PCS entities or an extension from the FCC. To secure a sufficient amount of unencumbered spectrum to operate our PCS systems efficiently, with adequate population coverage and within the appropriate time period, we have relocated one or more of these incumbent fixed microwave licensees and have also been required (and may continue to be required) to participate in the cost sharing related to microwave licenses that have been voluntarily relocated by other PCS licensees or the existing microwave operators.

PCS Construction Requirements. We are subject to construction requirements which require all PCS licensees to satisfy minimum geographic coverage requirements within five years of the license grant date, and 30-MHZ PCS licensees to satisfy additional coverage requirements within ten years of the license grant date. To meet these requirements, we must offer adequate service to at least one-third of the population within five years and two-thirds of the population within ten years following the license grant date. As an alternative to the geographic coverage requirement, we may demonstrate that we are providing “substantial service” within the applicable five or ten-year period. A failure to comply with FCC coverage requirements could cause the revocation of our wireless license.

Transfer and Assignment of PCS Licenses. The Communications Act and FCC rules require prior FCC approval of the assignment or transfer of control of a license for a PCS system, with limited exceptions. The FCC may prohibit or impose conditions on assignments and transfers of control of licenses. Non-controlling interests in an entity that holds a FCC license generally may be bought or sold without FCC approval, but subject to applicable ownership eligibility restrictions. We do not currently have plans to transfer or assign our PCS license for American Samoa.

General FCC Obligations. FCC requirements and proceedings could affect our operations, increase our costs or diminish our revenues. For example, the FCC requires wireless carriers to make emergency call services available to our customers, including a system that provides the caller’s telephone number and detailed location information to emergency responders. The FCC also requires that emergency call services be made available to

users with speech or hearing disabilities. Our obligations to implement these services occur on a market-by-market basis, as emergency service providers request the implementation of enhanced emergency call services. Absent a waiver, our failure to comply with these requirements could subject us to significant penalties.

FCC rules also require that local exchange carriers and most commercial mobile radio service providers, including PCS providers, allow customers to change service providers without changing telephone numbers. For wireless service providers, this mandate is referred to as wireless local number portability, or WLNP. The FCC also has adopted rules governing the porting of wireline telephone numbers to wireless carriers.

The FCC has the authority to order interconnection between commercial mobile radio service operators and incumbent exchange carriers. FCC rules require all local exchange carriers to enter into compensation arrangements with commercial mobile radio service carriers for the exchange of local traffic, whereby each originating carrier compensates the other, terminating carrier, for terminating local traffic originating on the originating carrier’s network. As a commercial mobile radio services provider, we are required to pay the wireline local exchange carrier that transports and terminates a local call that originated on our network. Similarly, we are entitled to receive compensation when we transport and terminate a local call that originated on a wireline local exchange network. We negotiate interconnection arrangements for our network with major incumbent local exchange carriers and other independent telephone companies. If an agreement cannot be reached, under certain circumstances, parties to interconnection negotiations can submit outstanding disputes to state authorities for arbitration. Negotiated interconnection agreements are subject to state approval. The FCC’s interconnection rules and rulings, as well as arbitration proceedings, could directly impact the nature and costs of facilities necessary for the interconnection of our network with other networks. The amount of revenue we receive for terminating calls originating on the networks of local exchange carriers and other carriers. The FCC is currently considering changes to the local exchange-commercial mobile radio service interconnection rules and other intercarrier compensation arrangements. The outcome of these proceedings may affect the manner in which we are charged or compensated for the exchange of traffic.

Country Information

Information concerning the geographic area of our Samoas operations is set forth in Appendix A to this registration statement.

Papua New Guinea, Fiji and Other Pacific Island Nations

An Overview

In Papua New Guinea, Fiji and Other Pacific Island Nations, the current population is estimated to be 26,299,075. A general telephone system supplies communications within the region, including approximately 13,600,000 wireline telephone lines and 19,600,000 mobile telephones in use. Although the region has a relatively advanced telecommunications network, as compared to other developing nations, the density of telephone service or mobile and internet service remains very low. Developed infrastructures for the telecommunications systems is limited to the major urban areas. We see opportunities for improving telecommunication in the major urban areas and expanding coverage to the more rural areas.

In this region, we are an information solutions and services provider, offering technology products, internet access service and professional services. We conduct operations in Fiji and Other Pacific Island Nations through our wholly-owned subsidiaries, Datec Fiji Limited, Generic Technology Limited, Network Services Limited, Datec Vanuatu Limited, Datec Solomon Islands Limited, Datec Tonga Limited, Datec Investments Limited, Mobile Technology Solutions, Datec Samoa Limited and Datec Australia Pty Limited. We conduct operations in Papua New Guinea through our subsidiary, Datec PNG Pty Limited. We hold a 50% ownership interest in Datec PNG Pty Limited. Steamships Trading Company Pty Ltd, a subsidiary of John Swire & Sons (PNG), holds the remaining 50% ownership interest in Datec PNG Pty Limited. We acquired all of these operating subsidiaries pursuant to a plan of arrangement that was consummated on February 1, 2006.

Table of Contents

Our strategy is to differentiate our internet services from those of our competitors by offering a unique combination of high quality service, reliable technical management and available online customer support. We plan to leverage our position in the market along with the emergence of internet-based technology in Papua New Guinea, to provide a large variety of competitively priced internet services throughout the country.

We are a reseller of internet services and purchase our bandwidth in large amounts directly from Telikom PNG, Ltd, our distributor, and offer it to our end-user customers by the megabyte. We invest in our internet services by continuing to upgrade our link to the gateway in Papua New Guinea, which allows us to maintain our position as the ISP with the largest bandwidth for incoming and outgoing data. The market for internet service providers in Papua New Guinea remains largely deregulated and we compete with three other providers of internet access services.

Professional Services

In Papua New Guinea, Fiji and Other Pacific Island Nations, our professional services offer strategic assistance to clients seeking a more comprehensive approach to managing government and business operations in the region. We offer a broad range of professional services to assist our customers in implementing customized business solutions to meet their business needs. Our reputation as a provider of professional services is based on our experience and in-depth understanding of the South Pacific markets. We have significant expertise in multinational operations, regulation and strategy, and have been at the forefront of changes in the South Pacific business markets. Our knowledge and information base covers a broad range of operations and our clients benefit from this detailed understanding of the efficiency challenges in government or business operations. Our professional services are designed to assist clients with innovation, cost reduction and customer relationship management. We have 12 offices in seven countries throughout Papua New Guinea, Fiji and Other Pacific Island Nations. We offer application development, managed services, systems integration, training and maintenance and support.

Strategy for Professional Services

Our objective is to solidify our market position as a major provider of strategic professional services to customers throughout Papua New Guinea, Fiji and Other Pacific Island Nations. In these geographic markets, the professional services sector is dependent upon local relationships throughout the region. We believe that our strong presence in the region gives us a significant advantage over our competitors and positions us for strong penetration of these and other markets. Since 2003, we have developed, maintained and expanded our own strategic relationships through the depth of our professional service offerings to government and business entities. We believe that our experience and continued in-depth understanding of trends in business operations throughout Papua New Guinea, Fiji and Other Pacific Island Nations will enable us to cater to existing clients and develop new strategic relationships. Our customers seek customized professional technology solutions that will enable them to compete in the rapidly changing business, technology and communications markets of the South Pacific. We believe we have established a differentiated market position based on our professional services personnel, who have the market expertise and sophisticated knowledge necessary to tailor our professional services to the specific needs of a client. We intend to continue to direct our efforts toward workforce training to drive the proliferation of our professional services in Papua New Guinea, Fiji and Other Pacific Island Nations.

Application Development. We implement a wide range of enterprise resource planning systems based largely on commercial off-the-shelf software for our customers in Papua New Guinea, Fiji and Other Pacific Island Nations. Enterprise resource planning is an information system or process that integrates all production and related applications across an entire organization. Enterprise resource planning systems provide tools to manage human resources and integrate systems in all areas of production including sales and order processing, accounts receivable, accounts payable, inventory, general ledger and payroll. Our consultants review and analyze these systems for customers and implement a timetable to integrate and implement enterprise resource planning applications into the customer’s operations. Our application development services allow our customers to derive the benefits of sophisticated information systems applications with minimal effort.

Table of Contents

When off-the-shelf enterprise resource planning systems are not available, accessible or suitable for a client, we develop mission-critical applications to meet their needs. Mission-critical applications are those applications essential to the important functions and operations of an entity. We rely primarily upon commercial off-the-shelf software to develop mission-critical applications. We differentiate our mission-critical applications from competing products by combining our knowledge of enterprise applications with an in-depth understanding of the operations and operational priorities of the client.

In Papua New Guinea, Fiji and Other Pacific Island Nations, the internet and its underlying protocols have grown to positions of prominence in interactive communications supporting the daily operations of government entities. We have responded to some requests for proposals from the government of Fiji to develop customized web-based applications enabling the government of Fiji to cost-effectively provide web-based services to constituents and have been awarded projects. As internet computing continues to spread throughout the South Pacific, we believe governments and businesses will increasingly demand web-enabled versions of enterprise applications. Our ability to adapt and adjust to the rapid pace of computer-based technology will differentiate our application development services from those of our competitors.

In Australia, we entered into a contract to develop innovative information technology solutions and services for the utility sector to enable our clients to better compete in a deregulated utilities market. We will continue to offer such development services to accommodate the demand for such solutions in newly deregulated markets.

In 2004, we commenced development of a sophisticated suite of applications for sales force automation and service force automation. Our sales force automation applications offer contact management functionality for the direct sales force needs of an organization, including the automation of mailshots, proposal and quote generation, order-taking facilities, remote configuring of orders, access to corporate data and communications with a remote field sales force. Our service force automation applications offer job management functionality for an organization including dispatching, service tech activities monitoring, job scheduling, service call management, site management and warehouse management. These applications, branded as “e-Breathe”, are designed to operate on the GPS networks of certain wireless providers in the region. We have entered into sales partnership and distribution agreements to offer our e-Breathe applications to channel partners.

Managed Services. We have entered into contracts with certain of our existing customers to provide managed support services for network infrastructure, mission-critical applications and enterprise resource planning applications. Our technology support services include the design, operation and monitoring of networks and equipment. We also offer installation and cabling services. These services enable our business customers to devote more attention and focus to revenue-generating business segments, rather than hire additional staff to perform technology support functions. In January 2001, we entered into an agreement with IBM Global Services Australia to manage, operate and maintain the information technology infrastructure for multinational corporations for an initial five year term. Effective January 8, 2006, we exercised our option to extend the term of this agreement for an additional 12 months. Through this partnership with IBM Global Services Australia, we manage, operate and maintain the information technology infrastructure for multinational corporations in Papua New Guinea, Fiji and Other Pacific Island Nations. Although we have not customarily offered these managed services to new customers, we believe that the demand for a single cost-effective and comprehensive solution for information systems will lead to our increased investment in our managed services operations. For the years ended December 31, 2003, 2004 and 2005, we received revenue of $1,901,471, $2,478,146 and $2,678,425, respectively, from this agreement. For the year ended December 31, 2006, we anticipate revenues of approximately $2,600,000.

In June 2004, we entered into an agreement with Bank of South Pacific Limited to provide operational support for equipment and networks. The initial termination date for agreement was June 16, 2005. On June 16, 2005, we exercised an option to renew this contract for an additional 5 years. For the six months ended December 31, 2004, we received $615,819 in revenues from this agreement. For the year ended December 31, 2005, we received $1,229,705 in revenues. Based on the current form of the agreement, the anticipated annual revenue associated with this agreement is $1,200,000. However, the agreement is subject to review and modification annually.

Systems Integration. Systems integration refers to the implementation, custom development and integration of new technologies and systems with our clients’ existing legacy systems and technology infrastructures. Our systems integration services primarily address issues related to systems architecture and web development. Our systems integration services provide our clients with access to some of the most sophisticated

and innovative technologies in a manner that is relevant and effective to their particular operations. Our services enable clients to link networks, hardware and software to create scaleable systems that will support their business models and strategies. We have recently extended our systems integration services to include voice, data and other telecommunications technologies.

Training. The demand for workforce training in the areas of business and information technology is increasing significantly in response to developments in the business and technology sectors throughout the South Pacific. We offer courses in these areas and have focused our business and information technology program offerings on the skills that we believe will be most marketable and useful in these sectors in the coming years. Our business and information technology programs include software applications technology, network and personal computer systems technology, network systems administration, business administration and project management. We differentiate our training programs from other programs in the region by combining substantial hands-on training with traditional classroom-based training, led by experienced and certified instructors in fully-equipped facilities.

Maintenance and Support Services. Our maintenance and support services provide both product maintenance and technical support services in Papua New Guinea, Fiji and Other Pacific Island Nations for products we supply to customers. Our technical support staff is strategically located in our service centers. These maintenance and support services are typically sold as renewable one-year contracts to our customers but are also available on a “time and materials” basis. We employ 85 experienced hardware engineers to provide certified parts and services and warranty and post warranty support, including Midrange, ATM and Oracle Applications maintenance and UPS Sales Maintenance. We are the only certified service agent in Fiji and Other Pacific Island Nations for IBM, Canon, and Lexmark and one of two certified service agents for Hewlett-Packard and Cisco Systems.

Competition

The market for technology products in Papua New Guinea, Fiji and Other Pacific Island Nations, has few competitors. For many global brands, we are the only licensed reseller of technology products in the region. Moreover, the vast expanses of geography, which have created substantial delays in social and economic development, have also discouraged others from capital expenditures to build networks in these areas. With the prohibitively high costs associated with laying wired infrastructure, the emergence of wireless technology offers alternative opportunities to make internet access, telephone and television services more widely available to the region’s dispersed populations. Current and prospective competitors for internet access and data services include many large, nationally-known companies that possess substantially greater resources, market presence and brand name recognition than we do. The market for residential internet access is highly competitive and characterized by increasing access speeds and consistently falling per-user prices.

Success in the market for professional services and business solutions in Papua New Guinea, Fiji and Other Pacific Island Nations requires an in-depth understanding of the South Pacific markets. We believe that our significant expertise in multinational operations, regulation and strategy has differentiated our services within the South Pacific market. Additionally, consultancy is emerging as a strong industry in the South Pacific market due to significant losses of skilled personnel, from migration, and the inability of local training institutions to adequately meet the demand for skilled personnel. This professional services sector is dependent upon the development of local relationships throughout the region. We believe that our strong presence in the region gives us a significant advantage over our competitors and positions us for strong penetration of these and other markets.

In Papua New Guinea, Fiji and Other Pacific Island Nations our competitors, by geographic location, are as follows:

Government Regulation

General Regulatory Requirements in the Pacific or Product Sales and Services. For our operations in Fiji and Papua New Guinea, we are subject to foreign investment approvals from the Fiji Trade and Investment Bureau and Papua New Guinea Investment Promotion Authority, respectively. These approvals are required for companies with foreign ownership. Similar approvals are required for our operations in Solomon Islands and Vanuatu. The remainder of the jurisdictions in which we conduct operations do not have formalized foreign investment approval regimes. However, approvals from other relevant government authorities or regulators are required to conduct general business activities in these locations. For our operations in Fiji and Papua New Guinea, we must obtain and maintain the approval of the Central Bank to acquire, transfer or otherwise deal in the shares of foreign entities or foreign investments in local companies. We are also subject to the Central Bank approval for certain overseas remittances.

Vanuatu. Under the Telecommunications Act of 1989, a license must be obtained prior to commencing any telecommunications system operations. As of the date of this registration statement, we do not hold such a license or provide telecommunications services in Vanuatu. If we choose to expand our telecommunications services to include Vanuatu, our ability to commence operations would be subject to our approval for this license. Telecom Vanuatu Limited, an entity owned by the Vanuatu Government, Cable and Wireless and Reseau France Outre-Mer, hold the only existing telecommunications licenses in Vanuatu.

Tonga. Under the Business Licenses Act of 2002, we are required to hold licenses for local business activities, including the wholesale and retail sale of computers and related products and services. We have this license. Telecommunications operations in Tonga are subject to the Communications Act of 2000 which requires a licensee to own network facilities, provide network service, provide applications service or provide content applications services. Under the Communications Act, a licensee is also required to install and connect to a network facility or network service, engage in any resale activities, provide Internet access services or engage in or provide any other activity or service determined to be within the license requirements. At this time, we do not provide telecommunications services in Tonga and are not required to have the licenses required under the Communications Act of 2000.

Samoa. In 2003, the Government of Samoa began the Telecommunications and Postal Sector Reform Project, a five year program administered by the Ministry of Communications and Information Technology of the Government of Samoa with assistance from the World Bank. Certain regulatory goals of this project could impact our operations and financial conditions including price reductions for telecommunication services, wider access to telecommunication services and increasing competition among sector participants.

Solomon Islands. At this time, we only sell hardware and software and provide technical support in the Solomon Islands. Telekom Solomons, of which the Government of Solomon Islands is a stockholder, has been granted an exclusive license for cable and wireless services.

Geographical Information

Information concerning the geography of our operations in Papua New Guinea and Fiji and Other Pacific Island Nations is set forth in Appendices B and C to this registration statement.

North America, including The Caribbean

Operations and Licenses

The North America business segment consists of parent company operations and the operations of our wholly-owned subsidiary, eLandia Technologies, Inc. In September 2004, eLandia Technologies, Inc. acquired two wireless telecommunications licenses, issued by the FCC for wireless operations in Bloomington, Illinois, and the U.S. Virgin Islands. As of the date of this registration statement, we do not generate revenue from operations in Bloomington, Illinois, or the U.S. Virgin Islands. However, in the future we may elect to launch commercial operations or commence additional build-out activities in these markets. Alternatively, we may elect to sell these licenses. In this regard, we do occasionally speak to potential buyers.

On February 28, 2006, we entered into an agreement with Tower Top Investments, Inc., a U.S. Virgin Islands corporation (“Tower Top”), for the purchase of certain telecommunications equipment located in the U.S. Virgin Islands. In connection with this purchase agreement, we entered into four license agreements with Tower Top for the right to occupy certain building space and also install telecommunications equipment on four of its towers located in the U.S. Virgin Islands, for the purpose of operating a PCS network. Although we conduct no operations in the U.S. Virgin Islands, this installation of telecommunications equipment was necessary in order to continue to maintain our wireless telecommunications license. As consideration for the favorable terms of the agreement with Tower Top, we agreed to pay a fee to Tower Top in the event we sold our U.S. Virgin Islands wireless telecommunications license, or any portion thereof. This fee would be an amount equal to 10% of the net gain received by us upon such sale. Net gain is defined in the agreement as our net sales receipts from the sale of the wireless telecommunications license less various expenses, including direct expenses from or relating to the ownership and maintenance of the wireless telecommunications license. We also agreed to pay Tower Top a fee if we should commence wireless operations utilizing the wireless telecommunications license. This fee would be an amount equal to 10% of our net income from such operations.

Government Regulation

The licensing, construction, modification, operation, sale, ownership and interconnection arrangements of wireless communications networks are regulated to varying degrees by Congress, the FCC and state/territorial and local governments. The Communications Act and FCC rules require the prior FCC approval of the assignment or transfer of control of a license for a PCS system, with limited exceptions. The FCC may prohibit or impose conditions on assignments and transfers of control of licenses. Non-controlling interests in an entity that holds a FCC license generally may be bought or sold without FCC approval, but subject to applicable ownership eligibility restrictions. Although we cannot assure you that the FCC will approve or act in a timely fashion upon any pending or future requests for approval of assignment or transfer of control applications that we file, in general we believe the FCC will approve or grant such requests or applications in due course. Because an FCC license is necessary to lawfully provide PCS service (other than through resale), if the FCC were to disapprove any such filing, our business plans would be adversely affected.

Seasonality

Our customer activity is influenced by seasonal effects related to traditional retail selling periods and other factors specific to our target customer base. As a result, new sales activity is generally highest in the fourth quarter. However, our business is sensitive to promotional activity and competitive actions, which have the ability to outweigh the effects of seasonality.

Employees

As of August 11, 2006, we had 463 full time employees. We had 64 full time employees for our Samoas operations, including 16 working in network operations, 22 working in marketing, 13 working in customer service and 13 working in general administration. We had approximately 398 full time employees in our Papua New Guinea, Fiji and Other Pacific Island Nations operations, including 70 working in network operations, 62 in sales and marketing, 173 in customer service and 93 in administrative. We had one full-time employee in North America working in general administration.

Available Information

We only recently became subject to the reporting requirements under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Exchange Act”). As a result, we will now file annual reports, quarterly reports, proxy statements and other documents with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) under the Exchange Act. The public may read and copy any materials that we file with the SEC at the SEC’s Public Reference Room at 100 F. Street, N.E., Room 1580, Washington, D.C. 20549. The public may obtain information on the operation of the Public Reference Room by calling the SEC at 1-800-SEC-0330. Also, the SEC maintains a website that contains reports, proxy and information statements, and other information regarding issuers, including the Company, that file electronically with the SEC. The public can obtain any documents that we file with the SEC at http://www.sec.gov.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

You should consider carefully the following information about the risks described below, together with the other information contained in this registration statement. If any of the following risks actually occurs, our business, financial condition, results of operations and future growth prospects would likely be materially and adversely affected. In these circumstances, the market price of our common stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of the money you paid to buy our common stock.

Risks Related to Our Business and Industry

We have only recently merged several disparate businesses together and have no combined operating history. The lack of centralized accounting, financing and other administrative systems will result in inefficiencies and increased costs for operations.

On September 15, 2004, Elandia and Technologies were combined by virtue of a common control merger. On January 31, 2006, Elandia acquired AST. Also on February 1, 2006, Elandia acquired all of the operating subsidiaries of Datec. Prior to February 1, 2006, AST and the Datec operating companies had separate management, business plans and prospects that were unrelated to each other. We may not be able to effectively integrate these businesses and their management structures or derive any benefit from integrating them with Elandia’s management or assets.

Until we establish centralized accounting, finance and other administrative systems, we must rely upon the separate systems of the operating companies. Our success will depend, in part, upon centralizing these functions effectively. Further, we must effectively utilize the technical know-how of the two South Pacific-based operations (the former Datec subsidiaries and AST) in order to realize any benefit from these acquisitions. These organizations have different missions and business plans that will continue to be their priorities. We will also need to integrate such operating companies and any additional businesses we may acquire.

Our management group has been assembled only recently and the management control structure is still in its formative stages. Management may not be able to oversee the combined entity effectively or to implement our operating strategies across business segments. Any failure to do so will result in less efficiency and increased costs. The pro forma combined financial results included in this registration statement cover periods during which Elandia, AST and the Datec operating companies were not under common control or management and may not be indicative of our future financial or operating results.

We may not be able to enhance the operating results of our operating subsidiaries as planned. To the extent that we do not, we will not achieve greater profits.

A key element of our business strategy is to improve the profitability of our operating subsidiaries and any subsequently acquired businesses. Our ability to improve profitability will be affected by various factors including:

 

    our ability to obtain, and the cost of, capital;

 

    our ability to achieve operating efficiencies;

 

    the level of continued demand for the products and services we offer; and

 

    our ability to expand the range of products and services that we offer and our ability to enter new markets successfully.

Many of these factors are beyond our control and our strategies may not be successful. Moreover, we may be unable to generate cash flow adequate to sustain our operations and to support internal growth.

Another key component of our strategy is to operate on a decentralized basis, with local management retaining responsibility for day-to-day operations, profitability and the growth of the business. We cannot assure you that these individuals can operate effectively as the operations grow, face new challenges or endeavor to offer new products and services. Our subsidiaries are operating with management, sales, and support personnel that may be insufficient to support growth in their respective businesses without significant central oversight and coordination. If proper overall business controls are not implemented, our decentralized operating strategy could result in inconsistent operations and financial practices.

In connection with the acquisitions, various key customers or suppliers of the acquired entities may have the right to terminate their agreements with the acquired businesses. For example, various agreements that our newly acquired South Pacific subsidiaries have with their customers require the subsidiaries to provide notice of a change of control and provide the customers or suppliers the right to terminate the agreements if the customer or supplier is displeased with the change in control. As a result, acquisitions pose the risk that revenues of the acquired entities may decline as a result of the combination. As of the date of this registration statement, no key customers or suppliers have requested to terminate their agreements with our newly-acquired South Pacific subsidiaries.

The Datec Group Ltd. subsidiaries acquired by us and AST had working capital deficiencies as of December 31, 2005. These factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

The Datec subsidiaries incurred a net loss of $8,143,745 for the year ended December 31, 2005 and had a working capital deficiency of $613,973. As of December 31, 2005, AST had a working capital deficiency of $1,925,122. These factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to raise additional capital, generate positive operating cash flow through the execution of our business plan and the ability to obtain additional financing.

We may not be able to run our businesses without the continuing efforts of our senior executives and we do not maintain life insurance on any of them.

Our success depends to a significant degree upon the continued contributions of key management as well as selling and marketing, and operations personnel, certain of whom would be difficult to replace. In particular, we believe that our future success is highly dependent on Harry Hobbs, our incoming Chief Executive Officer; Michael Ah Koy, our current acting Chief Executive Officer and Chief Operating Officer; Harley Rollins, our Chief Financial Officer; Michael McCutcheon, our Chief Operating Officer of Datec; and Barry and Fay Rose, senior executives of AST. We do not maintain key man life insurance covering our key management. Our success will depend to a significant extent upon the retention of these executive officers, their successful performance, the ability of these executive officers to integrate themselves into our daily operations, and the ability of all personnel to work effectively together as a team.

We plan to acquire other businesses as a key part of our growth and we do not know if we will be able to successfully integrate any targets into our existing operations. Failure to manage these acquisitions and integrate these operations will result in decreased efficiency and increased costs.

As part of our strategy, we plan to pursue additional acquisitions of complementary businesses in the markets in which we have a presence and in other geographic markets. We also plan to obtain services and technologies that will enhance our existing services, expand our services offerings or enlarge our customer base. If we complete future acquisitions, we may be required to incur or assume additional debt and make capital expenditures which will cause us to be more highly leveraged and to issue additional equity which will dilute our existing stockholders’ ownership interest. Our ability to grow through acquisitions involves a number of additional risks, including the following:

 

    the ability to identify appropriate acquisition candidates;

 

    the possibility that we may not be able to successfully integrate the operations, personnel, technologies, products and services of the acquired companies in a timely and efficient manner;

 

    the diversion of management’s attention from normal daily operations to negotiate acquisitions and integrate acquired businesses;

 

    our failure to generate sufficient revenues to offset significant unforeseen costs and increased expenses associated with the acquisitions;

 

    our entrance into markets in which we have little or no prior experience and where competitors have a stronger market presence;

 

    deferral of purchasing decisions by current and potential customers as they evaluate the likelihood of success of our acquisitions;

 

    incurrence and/or assumption of significant debt, contingent liabilities and amortization expenses; and

 

    loss of key employees of the acquired companies.

We will require substantial amounts of external financing to pursue our long-term business plan. Our business plan includes coupling video, data and long distance with our existing wireless service by acquiring or developing cable systems in each market where we provide wireless services. We currently offer wireless services in American Samoa and are pursuing other wireless licenses in the Pacific. Substantial capital is required to build a wireless network, to provide working capital to maintain the system and operations while endeavoring to grow a subscriber base, and to market the services. We do not expect to generate all of these funds internally.

Further, we may use a significant portion of our resources for acquisitions. The timing, size and success of our acquisition efforts and any associated capital commitments cannot be readily predicted. We currently intend to finance future acquisitions by using shares of our common stock, cash from borrowings or a combination of equity and cash. If our stock does not achieve or maintain a sufficient market value, or if potential acquisition candidates are otherwise unwilling to accept common stock as part or all of the consideration for the sale of their businesses, we may be required to utilize more borrowings, if available, in order to initiate and maintain our acquisition program.

If we do not have sufficient cash resources, our growth could be limited unless we are able to obtain additional capital through debt or equity financings. We may be unable to obtain additional financing on favorable terms, if at all. Any failure by us to do so could limit our ability to develop our long-term business plan. To the extent that we use equity for all or a portion of the consideration to be paid for future acquisitions, existing stockholders may experience dilution.

We are a relatively small company without significant capitalization. As a result, we may not be able to compete successfully against our current and future competitors, which have significantly greater resources. Failure to compete effectively will result in loss of revenue and decreased profitability.

In general, the telecommunications industry is very competitive. Local and long distance carriers compete on rates, features and service plans in addition to the quality of service that is offered. Our operating subsidiaries must be able to favorably differentiate the services that they offer from existing and future competitors. Some of these competitors may be able to provide our target customers with additional benefits, including bundled communication services before we are able to do so, or in a manner that is better than our offering.

Moreover, the industries in which we compete are experiencing rapid technological change, and we may lose customers if we fail to keep up with those changes. Some of our competitors have greater financial resources. As a result, they can invest more capital in technology development. Because of their size and bargaining power, our larger competitors may be able to purchase equipment, supplies and services at lower prices. As consolidation in the industry creates even larger competitors, any purchasing advantages our competitors have may increase.

We compete as a wireless alternative to wireline service providers in the telecommunications industry. Wireline carriers have begun to advertise aggressively in the face of increasing competition from wireless carriers, cable operators and other competitors. Wireline carriers are also offering unlimited calling plans and bundled offerings that include wireless and data services. We may not be successful in our efforts to persuade potential customers to adopt our wireless service in addition to, or in replacement of, their current wireline service.

We derive a significant portion of our managed services revenues and data delivery revenues from one client. A reduction in this client’s demands for our services or the loss of this client would likely result in a significant decline in revenues.

During the year ended December 31, 2005, Datec, an IBM authorized re-seller, derived approximately $2,678,429 or 27.6% of its professional services revenues from our customer IBM Global Services Australia, our referral source. IBM may terminate our agreement under various scenarios. Because we derive a large percentage of our managed services revenues from a single customer, our managed services revenues would significantly decline if we lost this customer or if the amount of business we obtain from this customer were reduced. Since most of the gross profit of the Datec operating subsidiaries is derived from the managed services business, this customer is critical to the viability of the Datec operating subsidiaries.

During the year ended December 31, 2005, our operations in Papua New Guinea derived approximately $970,569 or 20.3% of their data delivery revenues from IBM Global Services Australia, the same customer referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph. Because we derive a large percentage of our data delivery revenues from a single customer, our data delivery revenues would significantly decline if we lost this customer or if the amount of business we obtain from this customer is reduced. Since most of the gross profit of the Papua New Guinea operations is derived from the data delivery business, this customer is critical to the viability of our Papua New Guinea operations. Again, IBM Global Services may terminate our agreement if various events occur.

We may not be successful in increasing our customer base. This would force us to change our business plans which would likely increase our expenses.

We must increase our customer base for wireless services, internet service and data center services to generate the internal funds necessary to support growth. Many factors could prevent us from adding new customers or result in a net loss of customers, including:

 

    seasonal trends in customer activity;

 

    promotional activity by our competitors;

 

    competition in the wireless telecommunications market;

 

18


Table of Contents
    decreases in our level of spending on capital investments and advertising; or

 

    varying national economic conditions.

Our current business plans assume that we will increase our customer base over time, providing us with increased economies of scale. If we are unable to attract and retain a growing customer base, we will be forced to change our current business plans and financial outlook. This will likely increase our expenses and may preclude us from having sufficient funds to support our growth.

If we experience high rates of customer turnover or bad debt, our revenues will decrease and expenses associated with marketing will increase.

Customer turnover, frequently referred to as “churn,” is an important business metric in our wireless and internet services businesses because it can have significant financial effects. Since we do not require wireless and internet services subscribers to sign long-term commitments or pass a credit check, our service is available to a broader customer base than many other wireless providers. As a result, our customers may be more likely to terminate their service or to have their service terminated due to an inability to pay than the average industry customer. In addition, our rate of customer turnover may be affected by other factors, including the size of our calling areas, handset issues, customer care concerns, number portability and other competitive factors. Our strategies to address customer turnover may not be successful. A high rate of customer turnover would reduce revenues and increase the total marketing expenditures required to attract the minimum number of replacement customers required to sustain our business plan, which, in turn, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

Our operating costs could also increase substantially as a result of customer credit card fraud and subscription fraud and dealer fraud. We have implemented a number of strategies and processes to detect and prevent efforts to defraud us, and we believe that our efforts have substantially reduced the types of fraud we have identified. However, if our strategies are not successful in detecting and controlling fraud in the future, it could reduce our operating results.

If we cannot effectively manage international operations, we may experience losses, both from foreign currency exchange rates and otherwise.

At the present time, most of our operations are conducted outside of North America. We anticipate that for the foreseeable future, most of our revenue will be derived from sources outside of North America. We may experience gains and losses resulting from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. The majority of revenues and costs from our international operations are denominated in the Papua New Guinea Kina and the Fijian Dollar. The functional currency of American Samoa is the United States dollar. We have not undertaken foreign exchange hedging transactions and are completely exposed to foreign currency transaction risk for all of our operations outside American Samoa. Our international operations are generally subject to a number of additional risks including:

 

    protectionist laws and business practices favoring our competitors;

 

    greater difficulty or delay in accounts receivable collection;

 

    difficulties in staffing and managing foreign operations;

 

    political and economic instability;

 

    the ability to obtain, transfer, or maintain licenses required by governmental entities with respect to the combined business; and

 

    compliance with evolving governmental regulation, with which we have little experience.

We serve markets that are less developed than North America, lack certain infrastructure and have lower standards of living. We depend upon significant increases in the standard of living in these markets to occur in order to achieve forecasted levels of growth.

We have identified the potential for material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting. If we do not remediate all of these material weaknesses, we will have difficulty obtaining financing and investors may lose confidence in our securities.

A “material weakness” is a control deficiency, or combination of control deficiencies, that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected. In connection with the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as related to the acquisitions consummated on January 31, 2006 and February 1, 2006, we have concluded that the potential for certain material weaknesses in our accounting and financial reporting departments exists with respect to internal control over financial reporting and our ability to issue efficient and effective financial reports, consistent with the requirements of generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (U.S. GAAP). These potential material weaknesses are primarily attributable to the geographic distances between our operating locations, limited staffing levels and our staff’s limited familiarity with reporting requirements under U.S. GAAP. We have adopted the following measures, including (i) reviewing and documenting all financial processes for compliance with U.S. GAAP and (ii) giving our Chief Financial Officer oversight responsibilities. However, the lack of internal auditor (which we are attempting to identify and hire) and the existence of other material weaknesses could result in errors in our financial statements. Addressing these material weaknesses could result in substantial costs and may require us to devote significant resources to rectify any internal control deficiencies. We expect that any potential material weaknesses will be remediated in the second half of 2006. If we cannot produce reliable financial reports, investors could lose confidence in our reported financial information, the market price of our stock could decline significantly and we may be unable to obtain additional financing to operate and expand our business.

We may incur substantial expense ensuring that our internal control over financial reporting complies with the requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.

Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 requires companies to perform a comprehensive evaluation of their internal control over financial reporting. To comply with this statute, we will be required to document and test our internal control over financial reporting; our management will be required to assess and issue a report concerning our internal control over financial reporting; and our independent registered public accounting firm will be required to attest to and report on management’s assessment. Reporting on our compliance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act will first be required in connection with the filing of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2007. We plan to commence a review of our internal control over financial reporting for each acquired entity promptly in order to become compliant with the requirements of Section 404. However, the standards that must be met for management to assess our internal control over financial reporting are new and require significant documentation and testing. Our assessment in the future may identify the need for remediation of our internal control over financial reporting.

Many of our directors and officers reside outside the United States and substantially all of our assets are outside the United States. As a result, you may have difficulty effecting service of process and enforcing judgments against us or our management.

Many of our directors and officers reside outside of the United States. As a result, it may not be possible to effect service on such persons in the United States or to enforce, in foreign courts, judgments against our officers and directors obtained in U.S. courts and predicated on the civil liability provisions of the Federal securities laws of the United States. Furthermore, a large percentage of our directly owned assets are located outside the United States, and, as such, any judgment obtained in the United States against us may not be collectible within the United States. You may also have difficulty enforcing judgments obtained in the United States against us or our management.

Technology products change rapidly. As a result, our inventory might become obsolete which would result in substantial losses.

Our technology products businesses are subject to the risk that the value of our inventory will be affected adversely by suppliers’ price reductions or by product changes affecting the usefulness or desirability of our products. For example, during 2004 and 2005, the Datec operating subsidiaries wrote down an aggregate of $1,098,101 of inventory. This reduced gross margins by 2.0% in the year ended December 31, 2004 and 3.1% in the year ended December 31, 2005.

Any failure of our managed services, which requires us to protect our customers’ infrastructure and equipment, could lead to significant costs and disruptions that could reduce our revenue and harm our business reputation.

Our business depends on providing customers with highly reliable service. In our managed services business we must also protect our customers’ infrastructure and their equipment. The managed services we provide are subject to failure resulting from numerous factors including:

 

    human error;

 

    physical or electronic security breaches;

 

    fire, earthquake, flood and other natural disasters;

 

    water damage;

 

    fiber cuts;

 

    power loss;

 

    sabotage and vandalism; and

 

    failure of business partners who provide our resale products.

Problems at one or more data centers, whether or not within our control, could result in service interruptions or significant equipment damage. We have service level commitment obligations to certain of our customers, including our significant customers. If our customers suffer a loss of service or we fail to meet service level commitment obligations, we will be subject to financial penalties and loss of confidence of our customers which could consequently impair our ability to obtain and retain customers and to generate revenues.

Furthermore, we are dependent upon internet service providers, telecommunications carriers and other website operators in the South Pacific, the United States, Asia and elsewhere, some of which have experienced significant system failures and electrical outages in the past. Users of our services may in the future experience difficulties due to system failures unrelated to our systems and services. If, for any reason, these providers fail to provide the required services, our customers may begin to lack confidence in our services and seek other providers.

There is no known prevention or defense against denial of service attacks. During a prolonged denial of service attack, internet service may not be available for several hours, thus negatively impacting hosted customers’ on-line business transactions. Affected customers might file claims against us under such circumstances. Our property and liability insurance may not be adequate to cover these customer claims.

The geographic regions in which we offer wireless service are susceptible to severe weather and natural disasters. Disruptions to our wireless service may result in significant repair costs and customer dissatisfaction.

Our ability to provide wireless service on a continuous basis is essential to the efficient and profitable operation of our business. We conduct wireless operations in regions that are vulnerable to significant damage or destruction from severe weather or natural disasters, such as tsunamis and hurricanes. Any damage to our wireless networks, equipment or facilities due to natural disaster could interrupt our business operations, impair our ability to serve customers, and result in significant repair costs. Moreover, the recovery time following such natural disaster could be significant due to the lack of services and materials available in the geographic regions we serve.

We operate in areas with a limited experienced workforce. As a result, the loss of key personnel and difficulty attracting and retaining qualified personnel could make it more difficult for us to service our customers.

We believe our success depends heavily on the contributions of our employees and on maintaining an experienced workforce. The uncertainties associated with the recent change of ownership of AST and the Datec operating subsidiaries may have caused employees to consider or pursue alternative employment. We also have key employees on each of the island markets that we service who are part of the local culture and highly trained to perform their technical duties. The loss or unavailability of any of these individuals and particularly the cumulative effect of such losses, may make it more difficult for us to effectively manage and operate our business. However, we do not generally provide employment contracts to our employees.

We may be subject to product liability claims or a loss of revenues generally as a result of the risks associated with wireless handsets and the associated product liability, health and safety issues.

Media reports have suggested that the use of wireless handsets may be linked to various health concerns, including cancer, and may interfere with various electronic medical devices, including hearing aids and pacemakers. Malfunctions have caused at least one major handset manufacturer to recall certain batteries used in its handsets. We do not manufacture handsets or other equipment sold by us and generally rely on our suppliers to provide us with safe equipment. Our suppliers are required by applicable law to manufacture their handsets to meet certain governmentally imposed safety criteria. However, even if the handsets we sell meet the regulatory safety criteria, we could be held liable for products we sell if they are later found to have design or manufacturing defects. We generally have indemnification agreements with the manufacturers who supply us with handsets to protect us from direct losses associated with product liability, but we cannot guarantee that we will be fully protected against all losses associated with a product that is found to be defective.

Concerns over radio frequency emissions and defective products may discourage the use of wireless handsets, which could decrease demand for our services. In addition, if one or more of our customers were harmed by a defective product provided to us by the manufacturer and subsequently sold in connection with our services, the negative public reactions may be difficult for us to add and maintain customers for these or other services.

There also are some safety risks associated with the use of wireless handsets while driving. Concerns over these safety risks and the effect of any legislation that has been and may be adopted in response to these risks could limit our ability to sell our wireless services.

We rely heavily on third parties to provide specialized service. Failure by such parties to provide the agreed services at an acceptable level could limit our ability to provide services and cause customer dissatisfaction, either of which could result in reduced revenues.

We depend heavily on suppliers and contractors with specialized expertise in order for us to efficiently operate our business. In the past, our suppliers, contractors and third-party retailers have not always performed at the levels we expect or at the levels required by their contracts. If key suppliers, contractors or third-party retailers fail to comply with their contracts, fail to meet our performance expectations or refuse to supply us in the future, our business could be severely disrupted. Generally, there are multiple sources for the types of products we purchase. However, some suppliers, including software suppliers, are the exclusive sources of their specific products. Because

of the costs and time lags that can be associated with transitioning from one supplier to another, our business could be substantially disrupted if we were required to replace the products or services of one or more major, specialized suppliers with products or services from another source, especially if the replacement became necessary on short notice. In particular, in connection with our telecommunications and data communications businesses we are materially dependent on satellite companies to provide long distance connections. Our principal managed services customer is under agreement with IBM Global Services Australia, which has subcontracted with us to provide a turn-key service. In connection with our business solutions, we depend upon IBM, Hewlett Packard and Canon.

We may be subject to claims of infringement regarding telecommunications technologies that are protected by patents and other intellectual property rights. These claims would be costly and time consuming to defend.

Telecommunications technologies are protected by a wide array of patents and other intellectual property rights. As a result, third parties may assert infringement claims against us from time to time based on our general business operations or the specific operation of our wireless networks. We generally have indemnification agreements with the manufacturers and suppliers who provide us with the equipment and technology that we use in our business to protect us against possible infringement claims, but we cannot guarantee that we will be fully protected against all losses associated with an infringement claim. Whether or not an infringement claim was valid or successful, it would divert management’s attention away from our business, involving us in costly and time-consuming litigation, requiring us to enter into royalty or licensing agreements (which may not be available on acceptable terms, or at all), or requiring us to redesign our business operations or systems to avoid claims of infringement.

Regulation by government agencies may increase our costs of providing service or require us to change our services which would result in increased costs.

Our operations are subject to varying degrees of regulation by the FCC and local regulatory agencies and legislative bodies. Adverse decisions or regulations of these regulatory bodies could limit our ability to conduct business or increase the costs of doing business. Governmental regulations and orders can significantly increase our costs and affect our competitive position compared to other telecommunications providers. We are unable to predict the scope, pace, or financial impact of regulations and other policy changes that could be adopted by the various governmental entities that oversee portions of our business.

A change in the tax law regarding canneries could impair our operations in American Samoa which could result in a decrease in revenues.

The economic stability of American Samoa’s private sector is heavily dependent upon canneries that operate locally. Net earnings of these cannery operations are subject to judgments and estimates and taxed in part under Service Section 936 of the Internal Revenue Code, which exempts qualified American Samoa earnings from federal income tax. Section 936 limits the amount of qualified earnings for these canneries and expires at the end of fiscal year 2006. A change in the law may affect the tax rate of these canneries and place extreme pressure on American Samoa’s economic stability. A material deterioration in the general economic stability of American Samoa could affect our American Samoa operations.

Future declines in the fair value of our wireless licenses could result in future impairment charges which could reduce our operating income and the value of these assets on our balance sheet.

The market values of wireless licenses granted by the FCC have varied dramatically over the last several years, and may vary significantly in the future. In particular, valuation swings could occur if:

 

    consolidation in the wireless industry allowed or required carriers to sell significant portions of their wireless spectrum holdings;

 

    a sudden large sale of spectrum by one or more wireless providers occurs; or

 

    market prices decline as a result of the bidding activity in recently concluded or upcoming FCC auctions.

 

23


Table of Contents

In addition, the price of wireless licenses could decline as a result of the FCC’s pursuit of policies designed to increase the number of wireless licenses available in our markets. If the market value of our wireless licenses were to decline significantly in the future, we could be subject to non-cash impairment charges. A significant impairment loss could reduce our operating income and the carrying value of our wireless licenses on our balance sheet.

Declines in our operating performance could ultimately result in an impairment of our indefinite-lived assets, including goodwill, or our long-lived assets, including property and equipment, which could reduce our operating results and the value of these assets on our balance sheet.

We assess potential impairments to our long-lived assets, including property and equipment and certain intangible assets, when there is evidence that events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. We assess potential impairments to indefinite-lived intangible assets, including goodwill and wireless licenses, annually and when there is evidence that events or changes in circumstances indicate that an impairment condition may exist. If we do not achieve our planned operating results, this may ultimately result in a non-cash impairment charge related to our long-lived assets and/or our indefinite-lived intangible assets. A significant impairment loss could significantly reduce our operating results and the carrying value of our goodwill or wireless licenses and/or our long-lived assets on our balance sheet.

Because our consolidated financial statements reflect fresh-start accounting adjustments made upon our emergence from bankruptcy, financial information in our current and future financial statements will not be comparable to our financial information from periods prior to our emergence from bankruptcy.

As a result of adopting fresh-start accounting on September 15, 2004, the carrying values of our wireless licenses and our property and equipment, and the related depreciation and amortization expense, among other things, changed considerably from that reflected in our historical consolidated financial statements. Thus, our current and future balance sheets and results of operations will not be comparable in many respects to our balance sheets and consolidated statements of operations data for periods prior to our adoption of fresh-start accounting. You are not able to compare information reflecting our post-emergence financial statements to information for periods prior to our emergence from bankruptcy, without making adjustments for fresh-start accounting.

Risks Related to Ownership of Our Common Stock

Trading prices for securities of telecommunications companies have historically been volatile. As a result, the trading price of our common stock is likely to be subject to wide fluctuations.

The trading prices of the securities of telecommunications companies have been highly volatile. Accordingly, the trading price of our common stock is likely to be subject to wide fluctuations. Factors affecting the trading price of our common stock may include, among other things:

 

    variations in our operating results;

 

    announcements of technological innovations, new services or service enhancements, strategic alliances or significant agreements by us or by our competitors;

 

    recruitment or departure of key personnel;

 

    changes in the estimates of our operating results or changes in recommendations by any securities analysts that elect to follow our common stock; and

 

    market conditions in our industry and the economy as a whole.

The public sale of our common stock by existing stockholders or the exercise of options we have outstanding may result in significant dilution of our stockholders and could depress the market price of our common stock.

As of August 18, 2006, we had a total of 13,114,106 shares issued and outstanding. These shares were issued between September 2004 and February 2006. Of the shares issued and outstanding, 4,023,000 shares were issued in connection with our reorganization and in reliance upon Section 1145 of the Bankruptcy Code. As such, these shares are exempt from registration. However, to the extent that the holders are affiliates, the shares will have to be sold in compliance with Rule 144. The remaining 9,091,106 shares will be subject to Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Rule 144 generally provides that shares of our common stock could be sold beginning one year from the date of issuance, subject to volume limitations, and after two years from the date of issuance, without any limitations. The majority of these shares will became available for sale under Rule 144 beginning in late 2006 and the first quarter of 2007.

The market price of our common stock could decline as a result of market sales by our existing stockholders or the perception that these sales will occur. These sales also might make it difficult for us to sell equity securities in the future at a time and at a price that we deem appropriate. In addition, holders of our outstanding options and warrants may exercise their options or warrants to purchase our common stock, which would increase the number of outstanding shares of common stock eligible for public sale.

We have attempted to alleviate this potential issue by requiring that certain stockholders execute agreements containing restrictions on their ability to sell the shares in the public market. However, we cannot assure you that the public sale of our common stock, as they become available for re-sale, will not depress the market price for the common stock.

Our shares of common stock have not yet begun trading and you may find it difficult to dispose of your shares of our stock, which could cause you to lose all or a portion of your investment in our company.

No trading in shares of our common stock has begun and we expect to have only a limited trading market in the foreseeable future. As a result, you may find it difficult to dispose of shares of our common stock and you may suffer a loss of all or a substantial portion of your investment in our common stock.

Our common stock will be covered by SEC “penny stock” rules which may make it more difficult for you to sell or dispose of our common stock.

Our common stock is covered by an SEC rule that imposes additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell such securities to persons other than established customers and accredited investors, which are generally institutions with assets in excess of $5,000,000, or individuals with net worth in excess of $1,000,000 or annual income exceeding $200,000 or $300,000 jointly with their spouse. For transactions covered by the rule, the broker-dealer must make a special suitability determination for the purchaser and transaction prior to the sale. Consequently, the rule may affect the ability of broker-dealers to sell our securities, and also may affect the ability of purchasers of our stock to sell their shares in the secondary market. It may also diminish the number of broker-dealers that may be willing to make a market in our common stock, and it may affect the level of news coverage we receive.

The interests of our controlling stockholders could conflict with those of our other stockholders resulting in the approval of corporate actions that are not necessarily in the best interest of the other stockholders.

Our principal stockholder, Stanford, owns or controls approximately 42.0% of our common stock. This stockholder is able to influence the outcome of stockholder votes, including votes concerning amendments to our charter and by-laws, and the approval of significant corporate transactions like a merger or sale of our assets. Stanford is able, with another substantial stockholder with whom it has a voting agreement, to control the election of the board of directors.

ITEM 2. FINANCIAL INFORMATION

You should read the following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations in conjunction with the audited financial statements and unaudited financial statements and the notes to those statements included elsewhere in this registration statement. As a result of many factors, such as those set forth under the section entitled “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this registration statement, our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements.

Overview

We are a wireless telecommunications service provider and an information solutions and services provider, offering a wide range of technology products, internet access service, professional services and other solutions to certain islands in the South Pacific, geographic locations which we believe have traditionally been underserved. The products and services we offer in each of the geographic areas we serve vary depending on the regulatory requirements, infrastructure, existing telecommunication systems and the needs of the region. In some regions we operate retail stores where our products and services are offered and sold. Generally, our telecommunications operations include long-distance service, wireless coverage and internet access. Our software solutions include Microsoft products, database applications, accounting applications and other system applications. We also offer peripheral products including fax machines, copiers, telephones and general office equipment. Our hardware offerings include PBX hardware, servers routers and switching systems. In addition, we offer professional services to assist our customers in implementing customized solutions to meet their business needs. These services include application development, systems integration, training and maintenance and support.

We currently conduct business operations through several operating subsidiaries in four geographic segments: (1) AST Telecom LLC does business in The Samoas, which includes American Samoa and our wireless initiatives in Samoa; (2) Datec PNG Pty Limited does business in Papua New Guinea; (3) several entities do business in Fiji and Other Pacific Island Nations, which includes New Zealand, Australia, Tonga, Samoa, The Solomon Islands, Vanuatu and Cook Islands; and (4) North America, including the Caribbean, which includes parent company operations and assets held for sale or development by eLandia Technologies, Inc.

The Samoas business segment consists of the operations of our wholly-owned subsidiary, AST. Through our operations in The Samoas we provide wireless service, international service, internet access service and network operations service.

The Papua New Guinea business segment consists of the operations of our 50% owned subsidiary Datec PNG Pty Limited, which we acquired through an arrangement that was consummated on February 1, 2006. Through our Papua New Guinea operations, we provide technology products, internet access service, and professional services.

The Fiji and Other Pacific Island Nations business segment consists of the operations of our wholly-owned subsidiaries, Datec Fiji Limited, Generic Technology Limited, Network Services Limited, Datec Vanuatu Limited, Datec Solomon Island, Datec Tonga Limited, Datec Samoa Ltd., Datec Investments Limited, Mobile Technology Solutions, Brocker Technology Group NZ Limited, and Datec Australia Pty Limited. Through our operations in Fiji and Other Pacific Island Nations, we provide technology products, support services and professional services.

The North America business segment consists of our wholly-owned subsidiary, eLandia Technologies, Inc. and Elandia, Inc., our holding company operation. In September 2004, eLandia Technologies, Inc. acquired two wireless telecommunications licenses issued by the FCC. Currently, our licenses are currently held for development or sale. We have also entered into an agreement with a cellular service provider to pay a fee to this cellular service provider upon the sale or operation of our U.S. Virgin Island license.

We generate revenue from the sale of long-distance coverage, wireless service and internet access as well as technology products (both software and peripheral products). We also generate revenue from fees providing professional services to assist our customers in implementing customized business solutions. To a lesser extent, we generate reverse toll fees by providing other wireless service providers with the ability to use our network to facilitate calls into the regions we serve that the other wireless service providers do not otherwise serve.

Table of Contents

Our wireless customers are individual subscribers as well as small and medium-sized businesses operating in the regions we serve. Most of our revenues are generated from fees that are paid in advance, such as pre-paid wireless service. Revenues from equipment sales are generated at the point of sale or on account. We also generate some of our revenues from fees which are billed and required to be paid monthly. We have begun to shift certain customers that previously maintained post-paid wireless accounts to pre-paid wireless accounts in order to mitigate our bad debt exposure. Most of the customers that currently pay on a post-paid basis are small and medium sized businesses.

Our professional services customers are generally small and medium-sized business operating in the regions we serve. We also provide services to some of the municipalities. Most of these customers are billed for the services we provide. These clients are billed monthly or as the projects are completed.

Our strategy is to be a one-stop source for technology solutions throughout the regions in which we operate. We believe that we have identified regions that are in the beginning stages of technological development and that as we develop our customer base and these communities grow and become more technologically advanced, our business will grow. We also believe that as our business and sales grow in these regions, we will develop a platform that will enable us to expand our operations into other regions.

In targeting regions at the beginning stages of technological development, we face unique challenges. We must educate the individuals and businesses in the communities we serve about the advances in technology generally and our product offerings specifically. In some of the more remote regions in which we operate, we must develop or expand infrastructures for the telecommunication systems in the more rural areas where we want to expand. We must also educate and train a workforce that may not have significant experience in or knowledge of information technology. Notwithstanding these challenges, management believes that by being involved in the technological development of these regions, we will be able to establish a loyal customer base and be able to capitalize on the additional revenues that can be realized from these rapidly evolving markets.

Trends in Our Industry and Business

A number of trends in our industry and business have a significant effect on our results of operations and are important to an understanding of our financial statements. These trends include:

Technology Adoption

We currently serve regions that are in the beginning stages of technological development because we believe that as these communities grow and our customer base becomes more technologically advanced, our business will grow. The rapid rate of emerging technology in the telecommunications industry and the limited access to technology that many of our customers encounter may require us to educate consumers about our new product offerings. The cost of increasing consumer awareness about emerging technology in our relevant markets, while promoting the awareness of our brand, could result in increased operating costs. Moreover, the communities in which we operate may not advance at the same rate in which we would like our business to grow or need our business to grow in order to support increasing operating expenses.

Changing Competitive Landscape

We face increased competition as a result of existing competitors, many of whom can offer multiple services and have the financial wherewithal to offer them at extremely competitive prices. An increase in competition in our markets could adversely affect our share of those markets, the price at which we are able to sell our services and the time in which we are able to release new product offerings. To remain competitive in the telecommunications market we may choose to invest in the development of new products and services or acquire additional bandwidth and servers to help us enhance our user experience. Our plans to expand our network presence and service offerings may also require substantial investments in sales, marketing and administrative infrastructure.

Increasing Government Regulation

Our business has developed in an environment and in regions with only limited government regulation. However, the U.S. and other countries have begun to take more of an interest in how our industry should be

 

28


Table of Contents

regulated. Changes in U.S. or foreign laws or regulations, or in their interpretations, could result in the loss, or reduction in value, of our licenses, concessions or markets, as well as in an increase in competition. Complying with regulatory developments will impact our business by increasing our operating expenses, including legal fees, requiring us to make significant capital expenditures or increasing the taxes and regulatory fees we pay.

Summary Selected Pro Forma Financial Data

The following table presents selected summary pro forma financial information of our company to give effect to the following two acquisition transactions. On January 31, 2006, we consummated a merger with AST Telecom, LLC (“AST”). On February 1, 2006, we consummated a plan of arrangement under the laws of New Brunswick, Canada, whereby we acquired the South Pacific operations of Datec Group Ltd. (“Datec”). The acquisition of Datec will be accounted for as a purchase business combination and the acquisition of AST will be accounted for as a common control merger for the portion owned by Stanford Venture Capital Holdings, Inc. This information should be read in conjunction with, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to, the financial statements of Elandia, AST and Datec and the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements for the combined entities, and the notes thereto, included elsewhere in this registration statement.

The selected unaudited pro forma financial information is presented on a combined basis and is not necessarily indicative of the combined financial position had the acquisition occurred on January 1, 2005, or the combined results of operations which might have existed for the periods indicated or the results of operations as they may be in the future.

Year Ended December 31, 2005 Compared to the Year Ended December 31, 2004

Revenues. At December 31, 2005, we had approximately 15,780 customers for our wireless telecommunications services compared to approximately 12,814 customers at December 31, 2004. Customer additions during the year ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, were approximately 7,376 and 6,431, respectively. For the year ended December 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004, aggregate revenues from our pre-paid and post-paid wireless services accounted for 73.6% and 79.4%, respectively, of total revenues for these periods. The increase in customers resulted directly from management’s increased marketing activities during this period of time. Moreover, by improving the quality of service and rates, management increased our percentage of customers retained for the year ended December 31, 2005, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2004.

During the year ended December 31, 2005, wireless pre-paid revenues increased by $22,911, or 0.5% compared to the year ended December 31, 2004. During the year ended December 31, 2005, wireless post-paid revenues decreased by $119,383, or 11.0% compared to the year ended December 31, 2004. The decline in wireless post-paid was attributable to reductions in our customer base resulting from changes instituted in our credit and

collection policy and processes. In an effort to control our exposure to bad debt, we terminated certain clients and moved other clients from our post-paid services to our pre-paid services. For this reason, wireless pre-paid revenues increased and wireless post-paid revenues decreased. For the year ended December 31, 2005, we did experience a significant increase in the number of customers and minutes of use. However, these gains were offset by a decrease in the average rate per user.

During the year ended December 31, 2005, equipment sales revenues increased $199,984, or 27.6%, compared to the year ended December 31, 2004. We attribute this increase primarily to the growth in the number of customers for our wireless services between the two periods.

During the year ended December 31, 2005, long-distance reverse toll revenues increased $104,765, or 17.9%, compared to the year ended December 31, 2004. Increase in traffic from foreign destinations to American Samoa that utilize our network caused this increase.

During the year ended December 31, 2005, other revenues increased by $239,657, or 113.2%, compared to the year ended December 31, 2004. The launch of our high speed data internet services in March 2005 and August 2005 pursuant to the E-Rate contract described below drove this increase. In March 2005, we entered into a three year contract with the American Samoan Department of Education (“ASDOE”) to provide discounted, or “E-Rate”, fiber connectivity and internet services to 29 public schools and a public library on the Island of Tutuila. E-Rate is administered by the Universal Service Administrative Company (USAC) under the direction of the FCC and provides discounts to assist most schools and libraries with obtaining affordable access to advanced telecommunications. According to the terms of our agreement, our E-Rate services will generate approximately $21,000 monthly. In February 2005, ASDOE requested additional network capacity to establish a T-1 connection at the University of Hawaii for video teleconferencing and internet access purposes. In response to this request, we constructed a satellite dish and established a satellite link to Hawaii. Service from this new T-1 connection was initiated on August 18, 2005.

Management expects that revenues will increase in 2006, as we continue to increase our number of subscribers, we continue to improve the quality of our services and our rates in order to retain existing customers and the communities in which we operate continue to grow and become more technologically advanced.

Cost of Revenue - Prepaid and Postpaid. During the year ended December 31, 2005, cost of revenue for our prepaid and postpaid services increased $495,547, or 22.9%, compared to the year ended December 31, 2004. The increase in cost of service was primarily attributable to: (i) an increase of $198,028, or 28.3%, for cell site and switching circuits, due to increased capacity on our existing network and the additional satellite circuit required for the E- RATE contract; and (ii) an increase of $201,326, or 38.5%, in payments made to our long distance carriers, due to an increase in the volume of long distance phone calls made by our customers to locations outside of American Samoa.

Cost of Revenue - Equipment Sales and Service. During the year ended December 31, 2005, cost of revenue for equipment sales and service increased $141,196, or 21.1%, compared to the year ended December 31, 2004. This increase corresponds to the increase in equipment revenues. We attribute this increase to an increase in the number of customers subscribing to our wireless services and an increase in equipment sales. We expect that our cost of revenue for equipment sales and service will continue to increase as we continue to increase our customer base.

Sales and Marketing. During the year ended December 31, 2005, sales and marketing expenses increased $98,281, or 20.2%, compared to the year ended December 31, 2004. The increase is attributable to increases in advertising costs, recruiting costs and salary expenses, due to the hiring of additional personnel and increased promotions for the peak periods of Mother’s Day, Father’s Day and the Christmas season. Sales and marketing increased as a percentage of revenue from 6.6% for the year ended December 31, 2004 to 7.4% for the year ended December 31, 2005. For 2006, management anticipates that we will continue to incur a significant amount of sales and marketing costs as we pursue our growth strategy of increasing our revenue and subscriber base.

Customer Service. During the year ended December 31, 2005, customer service costs decreased $8,763, or 2.1%, compared to the year ended December 31, 2004. This decrease was primarily attributed to a $191,762 decrease in our bad debt reserve as we collected amounts that were reserved in a prior period and eliminated certain post-paid accounts of credit risk customers which we shifted to pre-paid accounts. This decrease in customer service was offset in part by an increase of $92,604 in salary expenses due to hiring additional personnel and a $47,003 increase in rent expenses for our new office space at Laufou Plaza.

General and Administrative. During the year ended December 31, 2005, general and administrative costs increased $731,457, or 62.4%, compared to the year ended December 31, 2004. This increase was primarily due to increases of $225,389 in professional fee expenses paid to outside consultants, $252,319 in legal fees, and $29,727 in travel-related expenses. The professional fees, other than legal, are fees paid to outside consultants used to assist in the expansion of our network and a wireless initiative in Samoa. The legal fees were incurred in connection with the merger with Elandia as well as certain FCC related matters. The increase in travel expenses is also related to the merger and our initiatives in Samoa. We anticipate that our general and administrative expenses will continue to increase as we hire additional personnel to address our growing subscriber base and to handle the obligations of a public company.

Depreciation and Amortization. During the year ended December 31, 2005, depreciation and amortization expenses increased $312,905, or 156.8%, compared to the year ended December 31, 2004. We attribute this increase to the construction of a new operations building, leasehold improvements at Laufou Plaza and upgrades to our existing wireless network. Depreciation and amortization includes amounts allocated to cost of revenue—prepaid and postpaid.

Interest Expense. During the year ended December 31, 2005, interest expense increased $57,584, compared to zero for the year ended December 31, 2004. We attribute this increase to the Bank of Hawaii mortgage on our operations building.

Net Income. During the year ended December 31, 2005, our net income decreased $1,374,561, or 60.3%, compared to the year ended December 31, 2004. This decrease is primarily attributable to the increases in general and administrative expenses and the increased cost of our expanded network.

Year Ended December 31, 2004 Compared to the Year Ended December 31, 2003

Revenues. At December 31, 2004, we had 12,354 customers for our services compared to approximately 8,935 customers at December 31, 2003. Customer additions for the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003 were 3,419 and 5,791, respectively. At December 31, 2004, the total potential customer base covered by our networks was approximately 20,000. The increase in the volume of customers has resulted in an overall increase in revenues.

During the year ended December 31, 2004, prepaid revenues increased $1,538,708, or 47.4%, compared to the year ended December 31, 2003. We attribute this increase to our improved network quality and marketing programs and also our efforts to move certain customers from postpaid to prepaid services in order to reduce our exposure to bad debt.

During the year ended December 31, 2004, postpaid revenues decreased $65,478, or 5.7% compared the year ended December 31, 2003. We attribute this decrease to changes in our credit and collection procedures to reduce our exposure to bad debt.

During the year ended December 31, 2004, our other revenue was $211,643. This category includes ISP revenue for which we had none in 2003. The addition of ISP and other revenue resulted primarily from the launch of our ISP services during 2004.

During the year ended December 31, 2004, revenues from reverse tolls increased $273,227, or 87.6%, compared to the year ended December 31, 2003. We attribute this increase to the increase in traffic from foreign destinations to American Samoa that utilize our network.

Cost of Revenue - Prepaid and Postpaid. During the year ended December 31, 2004, cost of revenue for our prepaid and postpaid services services increased $467,584, or 27.6%, compared to the year ended December 31, 2003. The increase in cost of revenue consisted of, among other things, an increase of $32,317 in utility payments for cell site and switching circuits due to increased minute volumes and utility increases. There was an increase of $89,772 in salary expenses as a result of the retention of additional personnel. An increase of $171,599 in payments made to our long distance carriers was due to increased long-distance call volumes. We attribute these increases to the expansion of our network in American Samoa and the corresponding increase in the total number of minutes carried over our network.

Customer Service. During the year ended December 31, 2004, customer service costs increased $169,835, or 66.9%, compared to the year ended December 31, 2003. This increase was primarily attributable to an increase of $96,936 in our bad debt reserve due to an increase in the number of uncollectible accounts. It was a result of these expenses that management began to evaluate its accounts and subsequently began to shift certain higher risk accounts from post-paid accounts to pre-paid accounts. This increase in customer service costs was also the result of $36,574 in miscellaneous expenses from inventory write-downs and $35,828 in salary expense due to our hiring of

additional customer service representatives. The increase in our bad debt reserve was due to the elimination of many post-paid accounts and an analysis of all receivables. We have instituted more aggressive collection procedures and credit controls to reduce our exposure to uncollectible accounts.

General and Administrative. During the year ended December 31, 2004, general and administrative costs increased $312,067, or 36.3%, compared to the year ended December 31, 2003. This increase was primarily attributable to an increase of $116,416 in management fee expenses. Management fees paid in connection with our Samoa operations are fees paid to members of management who are paid as consultants in American Samoa. This is unlike management fees with respect to our operations in Fiji and Other Pacific Island Nations where management fees are fees paid by our operating subsidiary to the parent company as a profit distribution. Also contributing to the increase in general and administrative costs were increases of $57,384 in salary expense for additional personnel, $41,016 in professional fee expenses for outside consultants related to the expansion of our network, $19,370 in building rents for the lease of new office space at Laufou Plaza, $25,643 in insurance expenses due to rate increases, $23,302 in legal fees and $14,634 in miscellaneous expenses for balance sheet write-downs. The expenses increased as a result of a large network expansion undertaken in connection with our Samoa operations.

Depreciation and Amortization. During the year ended December 31, 2004, depreciation and amortization expenses increased $123,246, or 161.6%, compared to the year ended December 31, 2003. This increase was primarily attributable to leasehold improvements for our new office space at Laufou Plaza and the expansion of our telecommunications network. Depreciation and amortization includes amounts allocated to cost of revenue—prepaid and postpaid.

Net Income. During the year ended December 31, 2004, our net income increased $483,713, or 26.9%, compared to the year ended December 31, 2003. This increase is primarily attributable to the increase in total revenue offset by increases in general and administrative expenses and cost of services.

Performance Measures

In managing our operations and assessing our financial performance in The Samoas, management supplements the information provided by financial statement measures with several customer–focused performance metrics that are widely used in the telecommunications industry. These metrics include ARPU, which measures average revenue per customer; MOU, which measures total minutes of use within a given period; and churn, which measures turnover in our customer base.

 

36


Table of Contents

ARPU is an industry metric that measures service revenue divided by the weighted average number of customers, divided by the number of months during the period being measured. Management uses ARPU to identify average revenue per customer, to track changes in average customer revenues over time, to help evaluate how changes in our business, including changes in our service offerings and fees, affect average revenue per customer, and to forecast future service revenue. In addition, ARPU provides management with a useful measure to compare our subscriber revenue to that of other wireless communications providers. We believe investors use ARPU primarily as a tool to track changes in average revenue per customer and to compare per customer service revenues to those of other wireless communications providers.

MOU is a non-GAAP financial measure. A non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of a company’s financial performance or cash flows that (a) excludes amounts, or is subject to adjustments that have the effect of excluding amounts, that are included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP in the consolidated balance sheet, consolidated statement of operations, or consolidated statement of cash flows, or (b) includes amounts, or is subject to adjustments that have the effect of including amounts, that are excluded from the most directly comparable measure so calculated and presented.

Churn, an industry metric that measures customer turnover, is calculated as the number of customers that disconnect from our services divided by the weighted average number of customers divided by the number of months during the period being measured. Management uses churn to measure our retention of customers, to measure changes in customer retention over time, and to help evaluate how changes in our business affect customer retention. In addition, churn provides management with a useful measure to compare our customer turnover activity to that of other wireless communications providers. We believe investors use churn primarily as a tool to track changes in our customer retention over time and to compare our customer retention to that of other wireless communications providers.

Management also measures the performance of operations by analyzing our increase or decrease in the number of customers during any particular period.

Management also reviews the measure of revenue per employee to evaluate the efficiency of our operations. Revenue per employee is calculated by dividing total revenue, less revenue from reverse toll fees, for each quarter by the weighted average headcount.

The following table shows metric information for the periods indicated.

For the year ended December 31, 2005, ARPU decreased by $11.72, or 25.5%, for the year ended December 31, 2004. For the year ended December 31, 2004, ARPU decreased by $1.91, or 4.0%, for the year ended December 31, 2003. These decreases were primarily due to the lowering of rates on our prepaid customers and Tropical Cyclone Olaf which struck the island in February 2005.

MOU for the period ended December 31, 2005, increased 5,275,580 minutes, or 17.4%, for the year ended December 31, 2004. MOU for the period ended December 31, 2004, increased 8,098,011 minutes, or 36.5%, from 22,180,218 for the year ended December 31, 2003. These increases were due to the increase in the number of subscribers and the increase in volume of calls and minutes. Management believes that these increases are the result of us lowering our rates.

Churn for the year ended December 31, 2005 decreased 1.4% from the year ended December 31, 2004. Churn for the year ended December 31, 2004 increased 2.5% from the year ended December 31, 2003. These decreases were due to most existing customers remaining with our service. Management believes this is due to improved quality of service and more competitive rates.

The number of customers for the year ended December 31, 2005 increased 3,426, or 27.7%, for the year ended December 31, 2004. The number of customers for the year ended December 31, 2004 increased 3,419, or 38.3%, for the year ended December 31, 2003. Management believes that these increases result from our increased promotions for the peak periods of Mother’s Day and Father’s Day plus the Christmas season and our lower per minute rates to our prepaid customers.

Revenue per employee for the year ended December 31, 2005 decreased $14,482, or 10.4%, from the year ended December 31, 2004. Revenue per employee for the year ended December 31, 2004 increased $3,975, or 2.9%, from the year ended December 31, 2003. From 2003 to 2004, the number of employees increased from 11 to 49. From 2004 to 2005, the number of employees increased from 49 to 63. The decrease in revenue per employee suggests that we have not yet integrated new employees into our operations in an efficient manner. Management believes that revenue per employee will increase as we begin to more efficiently manage the newly acquired entities.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our principal sources of liquidity are cash generated from operations and cash available from borrowings under our existing financial arrangements.

Cash provided by operating activities was $1,784,002 for the year ended December 31, 2005, compared to cash provided by operating activities of $2,717,006 during the year ended December 31, 2004. This decrease was primarily attributable to increased operating expenses in 2005. This was offset by a decrease in cash used for working capital. Cash provided by operating activities increased by $703,451 to $2,717,006 for the year ended December 31, 2004 as compared to $2,013,555 for the year ended December 31, 2003. This increase was the result of increased revenues and profitability.

Investing Activities. Cash used in investing activities was $1,953,803 during the year ended December 31, 2005, and attributed primarily to capital expenditures made to expand our network presence in American Samoa. Cash used in investing activities was $2,253,020 during the year ended December 31, 2004, and associated with the expansion of our network and product offerings. Cash used in investing activities was $1,384,058 during December 31, 2003 and is primarily attributable to the expansion of network presence in American Samoa.

Financing Activities. Cash used in financing activities during the year ended December 31, 2005 was $331,880 due to our repurchase of ownership interests from members. We financed this repurchase through cash from operations, and $1,440,667 from our revolving loan facility. Cash used in financing activities during the year ended December 31, 2004 was $944,472, consisting of distributions to partners. We had no other financing activity during 2004. Cash provided by financing activities during year ended December 31, 2003 was $666,667. In February 2003, AST received capital contributions from its members in the amount of $1,000,000 and made a distribution to members of $333,333.

The following tables illustrate the principal balance of our contractual obligations and commercial contingent commitments as of December 31, 2005 and include the effects of the transactions and amendments discussed above that occurred during the year ended December 31, 2005.

We obtained a $1,000,000 credit facility from Bank of Hawaii on May 9, 2005, with a 90-day renewable term up to July 2006 bearing a variable interest rate at 0.50% over the bank’s base interest rate (7.25% at December 31, 2005). This credit facility is secured by substantially all of our assets. On November 22, 2005, the maximum borrowing amount was increased to $2,000,000. As of December 31, 2005, $1,440,667 of the $2,000,000 total credit facility was outstanding. This credit line was not repaid on July 1, 2006 and on August 22, 2006, we received an extension letter from the Bank of Hawaii extending the repayment date to November 1, 2006. We are currently seeking alternative sources of financing.

We believe that our existing capital resources, including the cash available from borrowings under our existing financial arrangements, will be sufficient to meet our existing operating and capital requirements for at least the next twelve months, provided we are able to obtain a replacement credit facility on the same or substantially similar terms. Our audited financial statements as of December 31, 2005 and for the year then ended contained a going concern opinion stating that the working capital deficiency factor raises substantial doubt that AST will be able to continue as a going concern.

To properly implement all elements of our business strategy on American Samoa including video services, we believe that we will require an additional $5 million in external financing. If we are successful in entering the wireless market in Samoa, we expect that we will require an additional $11 million to introduce wireless and video services. While we anticipate that these funds will be available from either the equity or debt markets, there can be no assurance that these funds will be available on terms that are acceptable to us.

Product sales revenue refers to all computer hardware, communications hardware, consumables and commercial off-the-shelf software sold through our retail locations or by our direct sales force. For the year ended December 31, 2005, product sales revenue increased $3,311,241, or 28.0%, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2004. This increase can be attributed to (i) an increase in retail activity resulting from the upgrade of our retail facilities, (ii) a major mid-range system upgrade for the largest bank in Papua New Guinea, and (iii) a new agreement to supply computer hardware. We expect that product sales revenues will continue to increase in 2006 as a result of growth in our customer base and customer equipment upgrades.

Professional services refers to support provided to our clients by our hardware engineers, software analysts, architects, developers and staff for new or existing software, hardware, systems, or applications. For the year ended December 31, 2005, professional services revenue increased $628,492, or 12.8%, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2004. We attribute this increase to growth in revenue from our cabling solution services and an increased revenue from our mid-range and ATM-related maintenance services. We expect that professional services revenues will continue to increase in 2006 as we continue to market this service to small to medium sized businesses in Papua New Guinea. In the future, management hopes to increase professional services as a percentage of revenues since we generate higher margins from professional services than we do for product sales.

Data delivery refers to our ISP and data network infrastructure services to customers in Papua New Guinea. For the year ended December 31, 2005, data delivery revenue increased $887,726, or 22.8%, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2004. We attribute this increase to (i) a full year of revenue received for our services under an outsourcing agreement, which commenced mid-year 2004, (ii) growth in our ISP services, and (iii) an increase in the number of leased ATM units. Data delivery represented 11.9% of total revenues in 2003 and has since increased to 18.8%. We expect that data delivery revenue will continue to increase in 2006 as we continue to see growth in our ISP services.

During the year ended December 31, 2004, travel expense increased $79,330 or 68.2%, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2003. This increase was attributed to the increased costs of traveling within Papua New Guinea and internationally.

During the year ended December 31, 2004, legal fees decreased $31,940 or 29.2%, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2003. This decrease was attributed to decreased legal expenses in connection with litigation in Papua New Guinea described in the section “Legal Proceedings”.

During the year ended December 31, 2004, salary expense increased $116,672 or 11.5%, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2003. We attribute this increase to increases in costs of employing current staff and adding additional staff.

During the year ended December 31, 2004, insurance expense increased $60,367 or 23.5%, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2003. This increase is attributed to increased general insurance premiums.

During the year ended December 31, 2004, utility expense increased $43,016 or 50.8%, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2003. This increase is attributed to the increased costs of electricity in Papua New Guinea.

During the year ended December 31, 2004, building rents decreased $37,380 or 47.0%, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2003. We attribute this decrease to the reduction of rental space needed for our corporate operations.

During the year ended December 31, 2004, other general and administrative expense decreased $1,382,560, or 45.9%, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2003. We attribute this decrease to the decrease in bad debt expense in 2004. During 2003, we wrote off a large accounts receivable that had been outstanding for over eighteen months from the Department of Finance in Papau New Guinea. We reserved the entire amount outstanding after the commencement of legal action against the customer which is still continuing.

Depreciation and Amortization. During the year ended December 31, 2004, depreciation and amortization expense increased $418,780, or 90.5%, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2003. This increase was due to the accelerated depreciation of an acquired network, deployed and leased to one of our primary data services customers for a term of five years.

Net Income. During year ended December 31, 2004, our net income increased $261,090, or 195%, compared to the year ended December 31, 2003. This increase is primarily attributable to the increase in total revenue by 19.1% and decreases in general and administrative expenses by 18.7% offset by expense increases in cost of product sales and data delivery by 24.5%.

Performance Measures

In managing our operations and assessing our financial performance in Papua New Guinea, management supplements the information provided by financial statement measures with several customer–focused performance metrics that are internally used to manage our business. These metrics include revenue per employee, which measures total revenue per employee; stable revenue, which measures recurring or contracted revenue as a percentage of total expenses; and PC and server revenue, which tracks the overall trends for PC products versus business solutions.

Revenue per employee is a metric that takes the total revenue for a period divided by the total number of employees in the business. Management uses revenue per employee as an efficiency and growth gauge across diverse geographic areas with differing economic conditions. Monthly changes to revenue per employee also gives insight into total staffing requirements for any particular country in which we operate.

Stable revenue is a metric which calculates stable revenue as a percentage of total cost excluding product cost. Stable revenue consists of all sources of revenue excluding product revenue. The basis for this measurement is that product revenues are seasonal and variable whereas service revenues are more consistent as they are based on contracted revenue streams such as ISP revenues, services projects and maintenance and support to customers. Stable revenue is an important measure in determining the amount of non-contract or non-recurring revenue that must be sold to achieve profitability.

PC and server revenue is a series of measurements which tracks the total amount of PC and server based sales for a particular period and as a total percentage of product sales. This metric is used to pinpoint overall trends in our product sales business from consumer purchases to business or government based purchases. Due to the increasing pressure on our operating margins from competition, this metric is useful in determining how resources will be allocated among our product sale vendors and our internal support staff.

The following table shows metric information for the periods indicated.

Operating Activities. Cash provided by operating activities increased $1,628,029, or 81.0%, during the year ended December 31, 2005, compared to cash provided by operating activities during the year ended December 31, 2004. This increase was attributed to a 36% increase in the volume of sales and prepayments made for the Papua New Guinea Department of Education. This major aid project involved implementation of a new IT infra-structure.

Investing Activities. During the year ended December 31, 2005, cash used in investing activities decreased $5,398,285, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2004. This decrease is attributed to the reduction in the purchase of capital equipment for a major data services customer and the proceeds from the sale of property in 2005.

Historically, we have and continue to consider acquisitions and business development opportunities that require additional sources of capital. If we are successful in obtaining a wireless license in Papua New Guinea and implement a video strategy on Papua New Guinea, we believe that we will require up to $40 million to properly provide all services under our business strategy. Due to the continued improvement in the results of our operations in Papua New Guinea, we believe that these funds, if required, will be readily available from the debt markets. In addition, we believe that the financial ability of our joint venture capital in Papua New Guinea as well as our ability to access the equity markets in the United States will provide equity financing as required. There can be no assurance that these funds will be available on terms that are acceptable to us.

Results of Operations, Fiji and Other Pacific Island Nations

Our operations in Fiji and the Other Pacific Island Nations (particularly Fiji) have underperformed for the past two years resulting in losses from operations. In Fiji, we operate in an increasingly competitive, low margin environment for peripheral equipment and have experienced significant challenges in this region. During 2003, significant resources were spent in acquiring Certus Consulting, a former New Zealand operating subsidiary. However, shortly after acquiring this company, management realized that the operation was losing significantly more money than originally anticipated and, contrary to our expectations, would continue to lose money for the foreseeable future. As a result, in 2004, significant resources were spent divesting this business. Moreover, in prior periods, we acquired significant levels of inventory which we were subsequently not able to sell before new, more advanced models were introduced into the marketplace. As a result, we were forced to incur an inventory write-down when the inventory became obsolete. Since we had significant capital committed to the obsolete inventory, we did not have sufficient capital resources to acquire and deliver on other sales that would have produced higher margins. Finally, when several new competitors entered the market, management did not respond quickly by adjusting its mix of business and pricing model and immediately reducing its overall cost structure when there was increasing pressure on profit margins.

Management has taken steps to address the issues that contributed to the significant losses on its operations in Fiji and Other Pacific Island Nations. We sold the interest in Certus Consulting. We have shifted to more just-in-time fulfillment for those items in inventory that are subject to rapid obsolescence. We are in the process of changing the mix of business from product sales to professional services which produce higher margins. In addition, approximately $1 million from other operations have already been advanced to Fiji and Other Pacific Island Nations and management intends to advance an additional $1.5 million to support our higher margin integration business. Management believes that these amounts will be sufficient to acquire the product necessary to support higher margin projects and to increase our professional services revenue. Moreover, we have elevated Michael McCutcheon, who previously oversaw the development of operations in Papua New Guinea, to Chief Operating Officer of the Datec Group so that he can specifically address the operational issues in Fiji, including staffing levels. However, we expect that the results of these changes will not be reflected in our financial results of operations until the last quarter of 2006.

What follows are the financial results for our operating subsidiaries, Datec Fiji Limited, Generic Technology Limited, Network Services Limited, Datec Vanuatu Limited, Datec Solomon Island, Datec Tonga Limited, Datec Samoa Limited, Datec Investments Limited, Mobile Technology Solutions, Brocker Technology Group NZ Limited, and Datec Australia Pty Limited for the periods indicated.

Product sales revenue refers to all computer hardware, communications hardware, consumables and commercial off-the-shelf software sold though our retail locations or by our direct sales forces. During the year ended December 31, 2005, product sales revenues decreased by $3,365,361, or 30.4%, compared to the year ended December 31, 2004. Of this decrease, $1,661,236 was attributed to ceased operations of a former New Zealand subsidiary. The remaining decrease related to reduced sales in the Pacific Island Nations due to increased competition in the market and our failure to adjust by shifting our focus to higher margin products and professional services which also provide us with greater margins.

Professional service refers to the support provided to our clients by our hardware engineers, software analysts, architects, developers and staff for new or existing software, hardware, systems or applications. During the year ended December 31, 2005, professional services revenues decreased by $1,806,364, or 29.0%, compared to the year ended December 31, 2004. Of this decrease, $2,594,678 resulted from the ceased operations of a former New Zealand subsidiary. Professional services revenue not attributed to the ceased operations of the former subsidiary increased by $788,134 as a result of our expansion in Other Pacific Island Nations.

Cost of Product Sales. Cost of product sales refers to the cost of all products sold through retail outlets or the direct sales force. During the year ended December 31, 2005, cost of product sales decreased $2,545,952, or 25.9%, compared to the year ended December 31, 2004. Cost of product sold resulted from a significant decrease in the amount of products sold. This resulted from the cessation of operations of our former New Zealand subsidiary, significantly more competition in the area of product sales and our failure to respond quickly to increased competition by adjusting our mix of business and pricing model.

Decreases in the number of product units sold are attributed to the decrease in product costs and the ceased operations of a former New Zealand subsidiary company.

Performance Measures

In managing our operations and assessing our financial performance in Fiji and the Other Pacific Island Nations, management supplements the information provided by financial statement measures with several customer–focused performance metrics that are internally used to manage our business. These metrics include revenue per employee, which measures total revenue per employee; stable revenue, which measures recurring or contracted revenue as a percentage of total expenses; and PC and server revenue, which tracks the overall trends for PC products vs. business solutions.

Revenue per employee is a metric that takes the total revenue for a period divided by the total number of employees in the business. Management uses revenue per employee as an efficiency and growth gauge across diverse geographic areas with differing economic conditions. Monthly changes to revenue per employee also gives insight into total staffing requirements for any particular country in which we operate.

Stable revenue is a metric which calculates stable revenue as a percentage of total cost excluding product cost. Stable revenue consists of all sources of revenue excluding product revenue. The basis for this measurement is that product revenues are seasonal and variable whereas service revenues are more consistent as it is based on contracted revenue streams such as ISP revenues, services projects and maintenance and support to customers. Stable revenue is an important measure in determining the amount of non-contract or non-recurring revenue that must be sold to achieve profitability.

PC and server revenue is a series of measurements which tracks the total amount of PC and server based sales for a particular period and as a total percentage of product sales. This metric is used to pinpoint overall trends in our product sales business from consumer purchases to business or government based purchases. Due to the increasing pressure on our operating margins from competition, this metric is useful in determining how resources will be allocated among our product sale vendors and our internal support staff.

The following table shows metric information for the periods indicated.

For the year ended December 31, 2005, revenue per employee decreased $4,655, or 6.3%, compared to the year ended December 31, 2004. This decrease was attributed to a decrease in product sales of $3,365,361 or 30.4% and a decrease in services of $1,806,364 or 29%. Included in the decrease in sales was the cessation of the New Zealand operations which decreased product revenues by $1,210,964 or one third of the total product revenue decrease and decreased services revenue by $2,594,678. Excluding Certus, services revenues increased $788,315 due to expansion in the Other Pacific Island Nations. Staff numbers decreased by 52 people from 226 in 2004 to 174 in 2005 or 30%. The sale of the Certus operation accounted for a decrease of 37 employees.

For the year ended December 31, 2004, revenue per employee decreased $3,416 or 4.4% compared to the year ended December 31, 2003. This decrease was attributed to a decrease of $1,674,211 or 13.1% in product sales and an increase in staff from 221 to 226 or 2.2%.

For the year ended December 31, 2005, stable revenue decreased by 58% from 65%. This decrease was attributed to the decrease in service revenue from the divestment of the Certus acquisition. For the year ended December 31, 2004, stable revenue remained unchanged at 65%.

For the year ended December 31, 2005, PC (including Laptop) revenue decreased $1,875,289 or 60.5% compared to the year ended December 31, 2004.

This decrease in revenue was attributed to increased competition in the market reducing average prices and the loss of some key distributors in Fiji.

For the year ended December 31, 2004 PC (including Laptop) revenue increased $439,395 or 16.5% compared to the year ended December 31, 2003. For the same period quantities sold increased by 36%. This increase in revenue was attributed to several large orders placed during 2004 and expansion in the Other Pacific Island Nations. Average prices for PC products fell by 14% in 2004 as compared to 2003 due to volume discounts and increased competition.

For the year ended December 31, 2005 server revenue increased $46,536 or 4.9% compared to the year ended December 31, 2004. The total number of units sold during the periods increased from 102 to 153 or 50%. The low increase in revenue compared to the higher increase in quantities sold for the same period was attributed to the sale of several high value servers in 2004 that were not present in 2005, a reduction in overall server costs and a change in marketing strategy from low cost PC’s to higher margin servers.

For the year ended December 31, 2004, server sales increased $502,441 or 114.7% compared to the year ended December 31, 2003.

We have taken steps to improve our operating results but estimate that the additional working capital required to bring Fiji and the Other Pacific Island Nations to profitability is approximately $1.5 million. We believe that the cash generated from our combined operations and cash available from our existing external financing

arrangements are sufficient to meet our existing operating and capital requirements, but we will need additional debt or equity financing to expand our business in Fiji and the Other Pacific Island Nations or to seek out additional development opportunities. There can be no assurance that these funds will be available on terms that are acceptable to the Company.

Results of Operations, North America, including The Caribbean

On August 1, 2003, our underground boring and construction business became insolvent. As a result, on August 1, 2005, our main operating subsidiary filed a voluntary petition for reorganization. In addition, on January 8, 2004, we also filed a voluntary petition for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Western District of Arkansas. From January 8, 2004 through September 14, 2004, we operated our business and managed our assets in the ordinary course as a debtor-in-possession, and obtained Bankruptcy Court approval for transactions outside the ordinary course of business. On September 14, 2004, the Court confirmed a Joint Plan of Reorganization for our company and our operating subsidiary. By virtue of the confirmation order, we emerged from bankruptcy and obtained a discharge pursuant to Section 1141 of the Bankruptcy Code. Our Plan of Reorganization implemented a comprehensive financial reorganization that significantly reduced our outstanding indebtedness. Due to our emergence from bankruptcy we have implemented the “fresh start” accounting provisions of AICPA Statement of Position 90-7, “Financial Reporting by Entities in Reorganization under the Bankruptcy Code,” (“SOP 90-7”) to our financial statements.

As a result of our emergence from bankruptcy and the application of fresh-start accounting, our consolidated financial statements for the periods commencing on September 15, 2004 are referred to as the “Successor Company” and will not be comparable with any periods prior to September 15, 2004, which are referred to as the “Predecessor Company” in this registration statement. All references to the periods ended December 31, 2005 and the period from September 15, 2004 to December 31, 2004 are to the Successor Company. All references to the period ended September 14, 2004, are to the Predecessor Company.

Prior to January 2005, we were involved in other activities including: (i) setting up wireless internet capabilities in major hotels and apartment complexes, (ii) providing end-to-end infrastructure solutions for the wireless communication and cable television industries, which was comprised primarily of maintaining and constructing cell towers and (iii) providing underground horizontal directional boring technology and related underground construction services to telecommunication and cable television providers, water and sewer systems, and natural gas pipelines. During the first quarter of 2005, we implemented a plan to discontinue substantially all of our current operations. As of December 31, 2005, our primary assets were personal communication services licenses. We plan to generate future revenue by utilizing our remaining assets, consisting primarily of personal communication services licenses, and by acquiring various telecom and technology companies.

For the period from January 1, 2004 to September 14, 2004 (Predecessor Company) interest expense was $341,668. The increase was due to the increased amount of debt incurred by us to fund our operations in 2005.

for general working capital purposes. On July 24, 2006, we entered into a First Amendment to the Note Purchase Agreement increasing the principal amount to $3,300,000.

The principal amount of the note, together with any unpaid interest, is due in a single payment on December 31, 2007 or upon the occurrence of an equity or debt financing in excess of $8,000,000.

The following table illustrates the principal balance of our contractual obligations and commercial contingent commitments as of December 31, 2005 and include the effects of the transactions and amendments discussed above that occurred during the year ended December 31, 2005.

Future Capital Needs. Our ability to meet our debt and working capital obligations will depend upon the future performance of our operating subsidiaries which will be affected by many factors, some of which are beyond our control. Based on our current level of operations, we anticipate that our operating cash flows and available credit facilities will be sufficient to fund our anticipated operational needs for at least the next twelve months. We anticipate securing additional credit facilities to fund network and operational expansion in several of the markets in which we operate. However, if we are unable to service our debt requirements as they become due or are unable to maintain ongoing compliance with restrictive covenants, we may be forced to adopt alternative strategies that may include reducing or delaying capital expenditures, selling assets, restructuring or refinancing indebtedness or seeking additional equity capital. There can be no assurances that any of these strategies could be effected on satisfactory terms, if at all.

Revenues. During the year ended December 31, 2005, revenues decreased $344,230, or 0.9%, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2004. Our revenue is derived from product sales, professional services and data delivery as set forth in the following table for the periods indicated.

During the year ended December 31, 2005, product sales decreased $54,120, or 0.2%, compared to the year ended December 31, 2004. Product sales revenue refers to all computer hardware, communications hardware, consumables and commercial off-the-shelf software sold through our retail locations or by our direct sales force. There were increases in product sales revenue in terms of number of customers and increased purchases at our retail locations in Papua New Guinea despite the ceased operations of a former New Zealand subsidiary company.

During the year ended December 31, 2005, professional services decreased $1,177,872, or 10.6%, compared to the year ended December 31, 2004.

The decrease was attributed to decreased sales in Fiji and the ceased operations of a former New Zealand subsidiary company.

During the year ended December 31, 2005, data delivery revenue increased $887,726 or 22.8%, compared to the year ended December 31, 2004. Data delivery refers to our ISP and data network infrastructure services to customers in Papua New Guinea. We attribute this increase to an increase in the number of customers utilizing our data delivery services.

Our operating expenses, including amounts for cost of sales, network operations, sales and marketing, maintenance and support, general and administrative and depreciation and amortization, are set forth in the following table for the periods indicated.

Total

   $ 20,484,291    $ 20,046,685
             

During the year ended December 31, 2005, cost of product sales increased $215,131, or 1.1%, compared to the year ended December 31, 2004. Cost of product sales refers to the cost of all products sold through retail outlets or the direct sales force. One-time stock write-downs of $411,285 in the year ended December 31, 2004 and $628,068 in the year ended December 31, 2005 in Fiji contributed to the increase in cost of sales.

During the year ended December 31, 2005, cost of data delivery increased $222,475, or 24.2%, compared to the year ended December 31, 2004. Cost of data delivery refers to ISP and data network infrastructure services to customers in Papua New Guinea.

During the year ended December 31, 2004, legal fees decreased $79,001, or 44.5%, compared to the year ended December 31, 2003. This decrease was attributed to a decrease in legal expenses for litigation in Papua New Guinea and the discontinued operations of a subsidiary company.

During the year ended December 31, 2004, salaries increased $164,690, or 7.8%, compared to the year ended December 31, 2003. We attribute this increase to an increase in the costs associated with the employment of existing employees and the hiring of additional employees.

During the year ended December 31, 2004, insurance increased $35,835, or 9.6%, compared to the year ended December 31, 2003. This increase is attributed to an overall increase in general insurance premiums.

During the year ended December 31, 2004, utilities increased $98,153, or 92.0%, compared to the year ended December 31, 2003. This increase is attributed to the increased cost of electricity in Papua New Guinea and our expansion into Other Pacific Island Nations.

During the year ended December 31, 2004, audit fees decreased $55,950, or 35.8%, compared to the year ended December 31, 2003. This decrease is attributed to increased efficiency in our internal accounting procedures and the selection of a new auditor.

During the year ended December 31, 2004, telephone and tolls increased $27,903, or 7.5%, compared to the year ended December 31, 2003. This increase is attributed to the increased use of wireless communication throughout Papua New Guinea and our expansion into Other Pacific Island Nations, including the formation of a new subsidiary in New Zealand.

During the year ended December 31, 2004, networking costs increased $160,547, or 71.2%, compared to the year ended December 31, 2003. This increase is attributed to an increase in the general and administrative expenses related to our networking operations.

During the year ended December 31, 2004, motor vehicle expense increased $25,546, or 17.8%, compared to the year ended December 31, 2003. This increase is the result of increased cost of maintenance.

During the year ended December 31, 2004, building rents increased $30,704, or 5.8%, compared to the year ended December 31, 2003. This increase is the result of an overall increase in our need for office space, including but not limited to our new operations in New Zealand.

During the year ended December 31, 2004, other general and administrative expense decreased $300,969, or 9.4%, compared to the year ended December 31, 2003. We attribute this decrease to the absence of a one-time provision for bad debt expense, made for a major customer in 2003.

Depreciation and Amortization. During the year ended December 31, 2004, depreciation and amortization expense increased $463,849, or 45.8%, compared to the year ended December 31, 2003. This increase was due to the accelerated depreciation of an acquired network, which we deployed and leased to one of our primary data services customers in Papua New Guinea, expanded operations in New Zealand and our acquisition of an entity in New Zealand.

Interest Expense. During the year ended December 31, 2004, interest expense decreased $199,381, or 36.8%, compared to the year ended December 31, 2003. This decrease is attributed to the improved collection of accounts receivable and cash management.

Corporate Allocation. During the year ended December 31, 2004, corporate allocation expense decreased $89,204, or 27.4%, compared to the year ended December 31, 2003. This decrease is attributed to reduced fees for marketing fees and audits.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

In Papua New Guinea our principal sources of liquidity are cash generated from operations and cash from external financing arrangements. We believe that our existing capital resources will be sufficient to meet our operating and capital requirements through at least the next 12 months. However, we may seek additional debt or equity financing to fund future development activities and to insure liquidity.

Operating Activities. Cash provided by operating activities decreased $2,755,887 or 160.4%, for the year ended December 31, 2005 compared to the year ended December 31,2004. We attribute this decrease to the increase in expenses associated with the sales and marketing division. Due to reduced product margins the business model has been restructured to focus on service maintenance contracts, expansion of training facilities and professional services offerings. One-time stock write-downs of $411,285 in 2004 and $628,068 in 2005 in Fiji also contributed to the poor operating performance. No further major stock write-off’s are expected in the future.

Cash provided by operating activities increased $1,780,756, for the year ended December 31, 2004 compared to the year ended December 31, 2003. This increase was attributed to the Certus acquisition in New Zealand and increased operating activities in Papua New Guinea.

Investing Activities. During the year ended December 31, 2005, cash used in investing activities increased $7,330,486, or 229.0%, compared to the year ended December 31, 2004. This increase was attributed to the Pacific Islands.

During the year ended December 31, 2004, cash used in investing activities decreased $1,700,143, or 113.2%, compared to the year ended December 31, 2003. This decrease was attributed primarily to our expansion into other Pacific markets.

Financing Activities. During the year ended December 31, 2005, cash provided by financing activities decreased $868,339, or 207.2%, compared to the year ended December 31, 2004. This decrease was attributed to the proceeds from mortgage financing raised and equity raising in 2004 and repayment of mortgage financing in 2005.

During the year ended December 31, 2004, cash provided by financing activities decreased $681,972, or 61.9%, compared to the year ended December 31, 2003. This decrease was attributed to the proceeds from mortgage financing raised in 2003.

Fiji and the Pacific Islands will require additional working capital to meet our operating and capital requirements through at least the next 12 months. However, dividends receivable from Papua New Guinea, an extended credit line and inter-company borrowings will enable us to fund future development activities and ensure liquidity. There can be no assurance that our other operating subsidiaries will generate sufficient working capital since Datec as a company has received a going concern opinion for 2005.

Disclosure About Operational Risks, All Geographic Segments

Due to the expected expansion of our networks and increased acquisitions, we depend on management to accurately assess the costs of these transactions or projects and to properly evaluate our ability to generate cash from these operations within a defined period of time. We operate primarily in emerging markets, which offer little economic history as a basis for making such assessments.

As a result of price-based competition in our relevant markets, management must continue to monitor the prices of our competitors and costs associated with long haul satellite charges. We rely upon IBM Global Services to negotiate on our behalf with our largest single data center tenant. Therefore, the pricing structure for data center services in Papua New Guinea and Fiji is not wholly controlled by management.

Recurring indicators and risks that could materially affect the results of our operations in any period, include:

 

    unpredictable economic and business conditions and industry trends

 

    changes in currency markets and international currency exchanges

 

    changes in consumer disposable income and consumer spending levels

 

    the acceptance by consumers of existing service offerings and new technology

 

    our ability to adjust to advances in technology and to quickly incorporate new technology into our existing products and services

 

    changes in the regulatory environment in which we operate

 

    increased competition in our operating markets

 

    our ability to develop programs to support new technologies in television and telecommunications

 

    the ability of our suppliers and vendors to deliver products, equipment software and services

 

    the outcome of any pending or threatened litigation

 

    the availability of qualified personnel

 

    our ability to comply with existing or new laws and regulations

 

    changes in our strategic partner relationships and relationships with our investment partners, and

 

    increased terrorism and political unrest in certain regions of the world.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We utilize certain financial measures that are not calculated based on GAAP to assess our financial performance. Certain of these financial measures are considered non-GAAP financial measures within the meaning of Item 10 of Regulation S-K promulgated by the SEC. The discussion of each non-GAAP financial measure we use in this report appears above for each segment in which we use it under “Performance Measures”. A brief description of the calculation of each measure is included where the particular measure is first discussed. Our method of computation may or may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. The following tables reconcile our non-GAAP financial measures with our financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP:

Average Revenue Per User (“ARPU”)

We believe ARPU, which calculates the average revenue used or billed to an individual subscriber, is a useful measure to evaluate our wireless revenue from period to period and assist in forecasting our future wireless revenue. ARPU is computed by combining all revenue billed to our postpaid customers and minutes utilized by our prepaid customers and dividing the total revenue amount by the average number of subscribers outstanding for the respective period.

ARPU

   $ 34.21    $ 45.93    $ 47.84

Stable Revenue

We believe that the percentage of stable revenue is a useful measure that quantifies the amount of recurring or contracted revenue in relation to our overall cost structure. The percentage of stable revenue is computed by taking total contracted or recurring revenue streams and dividing by total costs less the cost of product sales. Stable revenue is an important measure in determining the amount of non-contract or non-recurring revenue that must be sold to achieve profitability.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2005, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 154, “Accounting Changes and Error Corrections – a replacement of APB Opinion No. 20 and FASB Statement No . 3”. This Statement replaces APB Opinion No. 20, “Accounting Changes”, and FASB Statement No. 3, “Reporting Accounting Changes in Interim Financial Statements”, and changes the requirements for the accounting for and reporting of a change in accounting principle. This Statement requires retrospective application to prior periods’ financial statements of changes in accounting principle, unless it is impracticable to determine either the period-specific effects or the cumulative effect of the change. When it is impracticable to determine the period-specific effects of an accounting change on one or more individual prior periods presented, this Statement requires that the new accounting principle be applied to the balance of the assets and liabilities as of the beginning of the earliest period for which retrospective application is practicable and that a corresponding adjustment be made to the opening balance of retained earnings for that period rather than being reported in an income statement. When it is impracticable to determine the cumulative effect of applying a change in accounting principle to all prior periods, this Statement requires that the new accounting principle be applied as if it were adopted prospectively from the earliest date practicable. This Statement shall be effective for accounting changes and corrections of errors made in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005. Early adoption is permitted for accounting changes and corrections made after the date this Statement is issued. We are in the process of assessing the effect of SFAS 154 and do not expect its adoption will have a material effect on our financial position or results of operations.

In March 2005, the FASB issued Financial Interpretation No. 47, “Accounting for Conditional Asset Retirement Obligations – an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 143”. This Interpretation clarifies that the term “conditional asset retirement obligation” as used in FASB Statement No. 143 refers to a legal obligation to perform

Table of Contents

an asset retirement activity in which the timing and (or) method of settlement are conditional on a future event that may or may not be within the control of the entity. An entity is required to recognize a liability for the fair value of a conditional asset retirement obligation if the fair value of the liability can be reasonably estimated. The fair value of a liability should be recognized when incurred. Uncertainty about the timing and (or) method of settlement of a conditional asset retirement obligation should be factored into the measurement of the liability when sufficient information exists. This Interpretation also clarifies when an entity would have sufficient information to reasonably estimate the fair value of an asset retirement obligation. We do not expect to be impacted by the adoption of FIN 47, which will be effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2005.

On December 16, 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued SFAS No. 123R (revised 2004), “Share Based Payment,” which is a revision of SFAS No. 123. SFAS No. 123R also supersedes APB 25 and amends SFAS No. 95, “Statement of Cash Flows.” SFAS No. 123R differs from SFAS No. 123, by requiring all entities to measure liabilities incurred in stock based payment transactions at fair value rather than measuring the liability at its intrinsic value. SFAS No. 123R requires entities to estimate the number of instruments for which the requisite service period is expected to be rendered rather than accounting for forfeitures as they occur. Under SFAS No. 123R, modifications to the terms or conditions of an award are measured by comparing the fair value of the modified award with the fair value of the award immediately before the modification, as opposed to measuring the effects of a modification as the difference between the fair value of the modified award at the date it is granted and the awards value immediately before the modification. SFAS No. 123R will also clarify and expand current guidance under SFAS No. 123 including the measurement of fair value, classifying an award as either equity or as a liability and attributing compensation cost to reporting periods. SFAS No. 123R amends SFAS No. 95 requiring that the excess tax benefits be reported as a financing cash inflow rather than as a reduction of taxes paid. The statement is effective in the first annual reporting period beginning after June 15, 2005.

SFAS No. 123R provides two alternatives for adoption: (1) a “modified prospective” method in which compensation cost is recognized for all awards granted subsequent to the effective date of this statement as well as for the unvested portion of awards outstanding as of the effective date and (2) a “modified retrospective” method which follows the approach in the “modified prospective” method, but also permits entities to restate prior periods to reflect compensation cost calculated under SFAS No. 123 for pro forma amounts disclosure. We plan to adopt SFAS No. 123R using the modified prospective method. As the Company currently accounts for share based payments to employees in accordance with the fair value method under SFAS No. 123, the adoption of SFAS No. 123R is not expected to have a significant impact on our results of operations or financial position.

In January 2003, the FASB issued Financial Interpretation No. (“FIN”) 46 “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities” which was amended by FIN 46R in December, 2003. A variable interest entity is a corporation, partnership, trust or any other legal structure used for business purposes that either (a) does not have equity investors with voting rights, or (b) has equity investors that do not provide sufficient financial resources for the entity to support its activities. Historically, entities generally were not consolidated unless the entity was controlled through voting interests. FIN 46R changes that by requiring a variable interest entity to be consolidated by a company if that company is subject to a majority of the risk of loss from the variable interest entity’s activities or entitled to receive a majority of the entity’s residual returns or both. A company that consolidates a variable interest entity is called the “primary beneficiary” of that entity. The consolidation requirements of FIN 46R have been adopted. FIN 46R did not have any impact on our consolidated financial statements since we currently have no variable interest entities.

In June 2006, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes,” an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes” (FIN 48), which clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes. FIN 48 prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The Interpretation requires that the Company recognize in the financial statements the impact of a tax position, if that position is more likely than not of being sustained on audit, based on the technical merits of the position. FIN 48 also provides a guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods and disclosure. The provisions of FIN 48 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006 with the cumulative effect of the change in accounting principle recorded as an adjustment to opening retained earnings. The Company has not yet evaluated whether this statement is expected to have a material impact on the Company’s combined financial position or results of operations.

Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements if currently adopted would have a material effect on the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

ITEM 8. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

Amalgamated Telikom Holdings PNG Pty Limited

Datec PNG Pty Ltd, our subsidiary, is party to an action as a 50% partner in Amalgamated Telikom Holdings PNG Pty Limited. Amalgamated Telikom Holdings PNG Pty Ltd. was created as a joint venture between Amalgamated Telecom Holdings Limited of Fiji and Datec PNG Pty Ltd. Amalgamated Telikom Holdings PNG Pty Ltd has initiated an action in the National Court of Justice at Waigani Papua New Guinea for damages against the State of Papua New Guinea and the Independent Public Business Corporation of Papua New Guinea for their breach of a Share Acquisition Agreement, dated July 31, 2002, in connection with Amalgamated Telikom Holdings PNG Pty Ltd’s successful bid to acquire 51% of the outstanding shares of Telikom PNG Pty Ltd. Telikom PNG Pty Ltd is a wholly-owned limited liability company, with a monopoly in the provision of fixed and mobile telephone services in Papua New Guinea. Amalgamated Telikom Holdings PNG Pty Ltd. is seeking damages in this proceeding for expenditures incurred in the bidding process, lost profits and revenue and efforts and funds expended for the sole benefit of Telikom PNG Pty Ltd. No court appointment to try this case has been determined.

Cornerstone Businesses Inc.

On February 6, 2006, we were sued in the Sixth Judicial Circuit Court in Pasco County, Florida by Cornerstone Businesses, Inc. in a complaint related to a subcontractor agreement between Cornerstone Businesses, Inc. and Midwest Cable Communications of Arkansas, Inc. Cornerstone Businesses, Inc. seeks relief based upon claims of breach of contract, tortious interference with a contractual right, tortious interference with a business relationship and fraud and negligent misrepresentation. The complaint seeks unspecified monetary damages, including pre-judgment interest and costs. We believe that the claims alleged in the complaint are without merit and we intend to vigorously defend against this complaint.

Bid Protest

On February 10, 2006, we applied for a new wireless telecommunications license for our operations on the island of Samoa, a jurisdiction separate and apart from American Samoa. In March 2006, the Samoa Government announced the award of the license to another company. On March 16, 2006, we filed a notice of dispute with the Ministry of Communications and Information Technology in Samoa regarding this award. Although we believe that our protest claim is meritorious, we cannot predict the likelihood of success on this matter.

ITEM 12. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS

Our certificate of incorporation and bylaws contain provisions that limit the liability of our directors, officers and certain persons serving at our request for monetary damages to the fullest extent authorized by Delaware law.

Our bylaws also provide that we shall advance expenses incurred by such director, officer, employee or agent in defending a civil or criminal action, suit, or proceeding in advance of the final disposition of any action or proceeding, and permit us to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any officer, director, employee or other agent for any liability arising out of his or her actions in that capacity, regardless of whether our bylaws would otherwise permit indemnification.

We have entered into and expect to continue to enter into agreements to indemnify our directors, officers and other employees as determined by our Board of Directors. These agreements provide for indemnification for related expenses including attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines and settlement amounts incurred by any of these individuals in any action or proceeding. We believe that these bylaw provisions and indemnification agreements are necessary to attract and retain qualified persons as directors and officers. We have secured and maintain directors’ and officers’ liability insurance.

Consequently, our directors and officers will not be personally liable to us or our stockholders for any liability arising out of their actions or breach of fiduciary duties in such capacity, except liability for the following:

 

    Any proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by a director or officer not first authorized by our board of directors.

 

    Any breach of their duty of loyalty to us or our stockholders;

 

    Any conduct adjudged to have been a failure of such director or officer to act in good faith and in a manner reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of our company;

 

    Any transaction from which the director or officer derived an improper personal benefit.

 

    Unlawful payments of dividends or unlawful stock repurchases or redemptions as provided in Section 174 of the Delaware General Corporation Law.

 

    Any conduct adjudged to have been intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of the law.

A stockholder’s investment may be adversely affected to the extent that we pay the costs of settlement and damage awards against directors and officers as required by these indemnification provisions. At present, there is no pending litigation or proceeding involving any of our directors, officers, employees or agents, regarding which indemnification is sought, and we are not aware of any threatened litigation that may result in claims for indemnification.

ITEM 14. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS OR ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE

In 2005, we dismissed KingBetham & Company, the certified public accountants previously engaged as the principal auditors to audit the financial statements of AST in 2004. KingBetham’s independent auditors’ report on the AST financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2004 did not contain any adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and was not otherwise qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles. The decision to dismiss KingBetham & Company was approved by our audit committee. During the 2004 fiscal year and the subsequent interim period preceding KingBetham’s dismissal, there were no reportable events or disagreements with KingBetham on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of KingBetham, would have caused it to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in connection with its report.

In 2005, we dismissed King Accountancy Corporation (“King”), the certified public accountants previously engaged as the principal auditors to audit the financial statements of AST in 2003. King’s independent auditors’ report on the AST financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2003 did not contain any adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and was not otherwise qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles. The decision to dismiss King was approved by our audit committee. During the 2003 fiscal year and the subsequent interim period preceding King’s dismissal, there were no reportable events or disagreements with King on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of King, would have caused it to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in connection with its report.

In 2005, Kingston Ross & Pasnak LLP (“Kingston”), the certified public accountants previously engaged as the principal auditors to audit the financial statements of Datec, declined to stand for re-election. Kingston’s independent auditors’ report on the Datec financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003 did not contain any adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and was not otherwise qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles. During the 2003 and 2004 fiscal year and the subsequent interim period preceding Kingston’s dismissal, there were no reportable events or disagreements with Kingston on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Kingston, would have caused it to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in connection with its report.

The Company will provide the former accountants with a copy of the disclosures it is providing herein. The Company will request that the former accountants furnish the Company with a letter addressed to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission confirming whether it agrees with the statements made by the Company and, if not stating the respects in which the accountant does not agree.

Following the dismissal of KingBetham and Kingston, we engaged Marcum and Kliegman LLP as the independent registered public accounting firm for AST and Datec effective February 14, 2006 to audit the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2005. Our audit committee authorized and approved the engagement of Marcum and Kliegman LLP. During the 2005 fiscal year, and the subsequent interim period prior to engaging Marcum and Kliegman LLP, neither we nor anyone on our behalf consulted Marcum and Kliegman LLP regarding either (1) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction regarding us, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on AST or Datec’s financial statements, or (2) any matter regarding AST or Datec that was a reportable event. However, Marcum and Kliegman LLP has been the auditors for Elandia, Inc since February 4, 2005, and in this regard it has issued registered public accounting firm report dated May 20, 2005 for the 2004 audit.

ELANDIA, INC.

INTRODUCTION TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(In Thousands)

The accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements give effect to the following two acquisition transactions, which form part of a Plan of Arrangement.

 

  i) On January 31, 2006, Elandia, Inc., a non-public Delaware corporation (“Elandia”), consummated the acquisition of 100% of the membership interest of AST Telecom, LLC (“AST”). AST is headquartered in Pago Pago, American Samoa, and operates under the brand name of Blue Sky Communications. AST is a provider of wireless telephone services in American Samoa via its wireless network. AST is majority owned (approximately 65%) by Stanford International Bank, Ltd. (“SIBL”) and its affiliates. SIBL, through its affiliates, is a majority stockholder of Elandia, and owned approximately 83% of the outstanding common stock of Elandia immediately before the consummation of the acquisition.

 

  ii) On February 1, 2006, Elandia consummated the acquisition of certain operating subsidiaries of Datec Group Ltd. (“Datec”), a publicly traded company on the Toronto Stock Exchange (“TSX Exchange”). Datec is a provider of information technology and services in Australia, Fiji, New Zealand, Papua New Guinea, Samoa, the Solomon Islands, Tonga, and Vanuatu.

Prior to the Plan of Arrangement, SIBL contributed approximately $13,234 of debt and related interest into equity of Elandia.

The acquisition of Datec will be accounted for under the purchase method of accounting whereas the acquisition of AST will be accounted for as a common control merger (historical cost basis) for the portion owned by SIBL (approximately 65%), and purchase accounting will be used to account for the acquisition of the minority owned interest (35%).

The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2005 combines Elandia, Datec and AST as if the two acquisitions were consummated on December 31, 2005. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statements of operations combine the results of operations of Elandia, Datec and AST for the year ended December 31, 2005 as if the acquisition of Datec and AST were consummated effective January 1, 2005.

The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared from information derived from, and should be read in conjunction with, the audited historical financial statements of Elandia, Datec and AST for the year ended December 31, 2005 included elsewhere in this registration statement. This pro forma financial information is being provided solely for information purposes and is not necessarily indicative of the consolidated financial position, or the consolidated results of operations, which might have existed for the period indicated or the results of operations as they may be in the future. The acquisition of Datec and the minority interest of AST will be accounted for under the purchase method of accounting; accordingly, the assets and liabilities have been restated at their fair value with any excess assigned to identifiable intangible assets with any remaining amount attributed to goodwill.

The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements reflect that Elandia, Inc. is the accounting acquirer and the acquisitions (except for the majority membership interest in AST) are accounted for under the purchase method of accounting in accordance with Statement of Financial Standards (“SFAS”) No. 141 “Business Combinations.” Accordingly, the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements reflect that the purchase price of each acquisition is preliminarily allocated to the acquired assets and assumed liabilities using our good faith estimate of fair values. The estimated fair values for the tangible assets and liabilities were equal to the historical carrying values at December 31, 2005. The excess of the purchase price above the net tangible assets was allocated to intangible assets as follows:

Intangible assets:

  

Customer lists – amortizable

   $ 4,515

Customer rights – amortizable

     4,515

Goodwill

     19,542
      

Total

   $ 28,572
      

We used amortizable lives of 5 and 7 years to calculate the pro forma amortization expense based on the contractual life of the contact rights and estimated economic life of the customer lists, respectively.

After the consummation of each acquisition, Elandia intends to retain an appraisal firm to complete a valuation in accordance with SFAS No. 141. Accordingly, the purchase price adjustments made in connection with the development of the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements are preliminary and have been made solely for the purposes of developing such pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements. Although we have made a good faith attempt to allocate the purchase price of each acquisition to the acquired assets, it is possible that the final fair values could be materially different. In addition, the final amortizable periods may also be different from our good faith estimates of 5 and 7 years.

We anticipate incurring increased expenses related to our expected new corporate management, increased costs associated with being a public company, and increased expenses in connection with coordinating the integration of the entities acquired. We also expect to put in place certain cost cutting programs which may offset some of these additional costs. We have not yet quantified these costs and savings since the acquisitions have just recently closed. Accordingly, these savings and associated costs have not been included in the unaudited pro forma financial information.

The pro forma financial statements have not been audited or reviewed by any of the Independent Registered Public Accounting firms of companies which are parties to the transaction.

PRO FORMA ADJUSTMENTS

Balance Sheet – December 31, 2005

 

a. Derived from the audited consolidated balance sheet of Elandia as of December 31, 2005.

 

b. Derived from the audited balance sheet of AST as of December 31, 2005.

 

c. Derived from the audited combined balance sheet of Datec Group Ltd. Subsidiaries to be Acquired by Elandia Inc. as of December 31, 2005 (in Canadian dollars).

 

d. In accordance with the Plan of Arrangement, Elandia’s related party debt and accrued interest owed to SIBL and its affiliates were contributed to capital on January 31, 2006. As of December 31, 2005, this debt consisted of accrued interest in the amount of $1,934, a secured revolver note in the amount of $2,500, a revolver facility in the amount of $8,500 and a secured note in the amount of $300. Accordingly, at December 31, 2005, the pro forma adjustment reflects the contribution of principal and accrued interest to capital amounting to $13,234.

 

e. The completion of the Plan of Arrangement resulted in the issuance of 4,085 shares of common stock to the existing stockholders of Datec with a fair value of $15,250, as consideration for the ownership of certain of Datec’s operating subsidiaries. The fair value of the Datec Group, Inc.’s subsidiaries was determined through arms-length negotiations between Elandia and Datec Group, Inc. An independent third party has reviewed the transaction and consideration paid by Elandia, and determined it to be fair, from a financial point of view. In connection with the issuance of the shares, Elandia expects to allocate the excess value of the shares issued to goodwill in the amount of $7,134, customer list in the amount of $3,389, and contract rights in the amount of $3,389. The amount allocated to these intangibles has been estimated by management based on information available and is subject to change based on an independent appraisal.

 

e-1. In connection with the Plan of Arrangement, the amount due to parent company was contributed into capital by Datec Group, Ltd.

The total cost of the acquisition is allocated as follows:

 

Current assets

   $ 12,729  

Property, plant & equipment

     3,628  

Customer list

     3,389  

Contract rights

     3,389  

Goodwill

     7,134  

Current liabilities

     (13,256 )

Long term liabilities

     (1,097 )

Minority interest

     (666 )
        

Total fair value of acquisition

   $ 15,250  
        

 

f.

The completion of the Plan of Arrangement resulted in the issuance of 4,226 shares of common stock to the members of AST as consideration for 100% of their membership interest. The acquisition of AST is accounted for as a common control merger (similar to pooling) for the interest owned by SIBL. SIBL is a majority stockholder of Elandia (approximately 83%) and it owns a majority interest in AST (approximately 65%). The acquisition of the minority interest (approximately 35%) is accounted for by the purchase method of accounting, and, accordingly, the assets and liabilities are restated at their fair value with any excess assigned to

identifiable intangible assets with any remaining amount attributed to goodwill. The fair value of the stock issued to the minority stockholders is based on arms-length negotiations between Elandia and the minority Stockholders of AST. An independent third party has reviewed the transaction and consideration paid by Elandia, and determined it to be fair, from a financial point of view. The remainder of the consideration for the 65% interest has been recorded at historical basis of the net assets acquired, similar to pooling of interest. As a result, the purchase is calculated as follows:

 

Fair value of 4,226 shares issued

     $ 15,840  

Portion attributable to minority interest

       35 %
          

Fair value of minority interest acquired

       5,543  

Historical cost basis of net assets acquired

   $ 2,967    

Portion attributable to SIBL

     65 %  
          

Historical cost basis of majority interest

       1,929  
          

Total cost of acquisition

       7,472  
          

Elandia expects to allocate the excess value of the shares issued to goodwill in the amount of $2,254, customer list in the amount of $1,126, and contract rights in the amount of $1,126. The amount allocated to the intangibles has been estimated by management based on information available and are subject to change based on an independent appraisal.

The total cost of the acquisition is allocated as follows:

 

Current assets

   $ 1,109  

Property, plant & equipment

     5,653  

Customer list

     1,126  

Contract rights

     1,126  

Goodwill

     2,254  

Current liabilities

     (3,036 )

Long term liabilities

     (760 )
        

Total acquisition allocation

   $ 7,472  
        

 

g. To give effect to a long term deferred tax liability related to the basis differences for the amortizable intangibles. The goodwill will not be amortizable for income tax purposes. The tax effect has been calculated utilizing Elandia’s blended statutory rate of 40%.

 

h. To capitalize acquisition costs incurred by Elandia for the Datec acquisition.

 

i. To eliminate Datec’s accumulated deficit against additional paid-in capital.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Board of Directors and Stockholders of

eLandia Technologies, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of eLandia Technologies, Inc and Subsidiary (the “Company”) as of September 14, 2004, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ deficiency, and cash flows from October 1, 2003 (date of inception) to September 14, 2004. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of eLandia Technologies, Inc and Subsidiary as of September 14, 2004, and the results of their operations and their cash flows from October 1, 2003 (date of inception) to September 14, 2004, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 - Organization and Business

Company

eLandia Technologies, Inc., (“Technologies”) was incorporated in the State of Delaware on September 12, 2003 under the name of eLandia Solutions Incorporated. On January 26, 2005, Technologies changed its name to eLandia Technologies, Inc. Technologies was formed to set up wireless internet capabilities in major hotels and apartment complexes for which it commenced October 1, 2003. On March 1, 2004, Technologies acquired a 100% interest in Roughwaters, L.L.C. (“Roughwaters”) collectively (the “Company”).

Effective December 31, 2004, the Company became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Elandia Inc., formerly known as eLandia Solutions, Inc. (“Solutions”) and further formerly known as Centra Industries, Inc. (see Note 12). Effective September 15, 2004, upon Solutions’ emergence from bankruptcy, Solutions and the Company were commonly controlled by the Stanford Financial Group.

Nature of Business

The Company, headquartered in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, currently owns Personal Communications Services (“PCS”) licenses in Bloomington, Illinois and in the US Virgin Islands. The Company’s licenses grant access to a 30 MegaHertz C-block, which can supply wireless broadband services for the transmission of voice, data and video entertainment.

The Company’s wholly owned subsidiary Roughwaters provides end-to-end infrastructure solutions, which is comprised primarily of constructing and maintaining cell towers. These services are primarily rendered to wireless communications and cable television companies.

Commencing during the first quarter of 2005, the Company committed to a plan for disposing of all installation of wireless internet capabilities in major hotels and apartment complexes along with disposing Roughwaters’ business of end-to-end infrastructure solutions. The Company’s future plans are to generate revenue by utilizing its remaining assets primarily comprised of the PCS licenses.

NOTE 2 - Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

Fiscal Year

The Company has elected to end its fiscal year as of September 14, 2004 in order to coincide with the date that the Company will become included in the consolidated financial statements of Solutions. (see Notes 1 and 12).

NOTE 2 - Significant Accounting Policies, continued

 

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary Roughwaters, effective March 1, 2004. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates made by management in preparing the consolidated financial statements include the allowance for doubtful accounts and the recoverable value assigned to the PCS licenses.

Fair Values

The Company has determined the estimated fair value amounts presented in these consolidated financial statements using available market information and appropriate methodologies. However, considerable judgment is required in interpreting market data to develop the estimates of fair value. The estimates presented in these consolidated financial statements are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that the Company could realize in a current market exchange. The use of different market assumptions and/or estimation methodologies may have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts. The Company has based these fair value estimates on pertinent information available to it as of September 14, 2004. As of September 14, 2004, the carrying value of all financial instruments approximates fair value.

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

The Company’s accounts receivables are stated at outstanding principal balance, net of allowance for doubtful accounts. Allowances for doubtful accounts are estimated based on the current aging of accounts receivables, prior collection experience and future expectations of conditions that might impact recoverability.

Furniture and Equipment

Furniture and equipment are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation. Major renewals and improvements are capitalized, while maintenance and repair costs that do not significantly improve the related asset or extend its useful life are charged to expense as incurred. For financial reporting purposes, furniture and equipment are depreciated by the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives which generally range between 5 and 7 years. Depreciation expense from October 1, 2003 (date of inception) to September 14, 2004 was $11,198.

NOTE 2 - Significant Accounting Policies, continued

 

Intangible Assets

Intangible assets consist of the original costs to acquire the PCS wireless licenses along with the long term maintenance costs necessary to maintain the active licenses. The costs to acquire the wireless licenses as well as the legal and other non-equipment related expenses necessary to activate the wireless licenses are capitalized and amortized over the period in which the Company expects to derive benefits, which is principally five or ten years. As of September 14, 2004, the Company has not amortized these licenses since they have not been placed in service.

Concentrations of Credit Risk

The Company’s financial instruments that are exposed to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of trade receivables. As of September 14, 2004, four customers accounted for 13%, 14%, 14% and 22%, of the Company’s accounts receivable as reflected on the consolidated balance sheet. From October 1, 2003 (date of inception) to September 14, 2004, four customers accounted for 13%, 14%, 28% and 13%, respectively, of the Company’s revenue.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes,” which requires the use of the “liability method” of accounting for income taxes. Accordingly, deferred tax liabilities and assets are determined based on the difference between the financial statement and income tax bases of assets and liabilities, using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. A valuation allowance is required if, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Management concluded that a full valuation allowance was appropriate at September 14, 2004 due to operating losses incurred. Current income taxes are based on the respective periods’ taxable income for federal and state income tax reporting purposes.

At September 14, 2004, the Company has net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $3,550,000 which expire through 2024.

Significant items and temporary differences between reported financial statements and income tax basis that give rise to deferred tax assets are as follows:

 

Net operating loss carryforwards

   $ 1,325,000  

Accrued expenses

     55,000  
        
     1,380,000

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue only when realized or realizable and earned. The Company recognizes revenue when all of the following are present:

 

    Persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists between the Company and its customers;

 

    Delivery has occurred or the services have been rendered;

 

    The price for the service is fixed or determinable; and

 

    Collectibility is reasonably assured.

The Company recognizes revenue based upon the work performed, which is specifically identified and pursuant to the terms of contracts. Cost of revenue includes direct material and labor costs and those indirect costs related to contract performance, such as indirect labor, supplies, tools, repairs and depreciation.

Stock-Based Compensation Plans

The Company adopted the disclosure provisions of SFAS No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation-Transition and Disclosure”, which amends SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation.” SFAS No. 148 provides alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation, which was originally provided under SFAS No. 123. The Statement also improves the timeliness of disclosures by requiring the information be included in interim, as well as annual, financial statements. SFAS No. 123 encourages, but does not require companies to record compensation cost for stock-based employee compensation plans at fair value. The Company will account for stock-based compensation using the intrinsic value method prescribed in Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees”, and related Interpretations. Accordingly, compensation cost for stock options will be measured as the excess, if any, of the quoted market price of the Company’s stock at the date of the grant over the amount an employee must pay to acquire the stock. The Company did not grant any stock options as of September 14, 2004.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

On December 16, 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004), Share Based Payment, which is a revision of SFAS No. 123. SFAS No. 123R also supersedes APB 25 and amends SFAS No. 95, Statement of Cash Flows. SFAS No. 123R differs from SFAS No. 123, by requiring all entities to measure liabilities incurred in stock based payment transactions at fair value rather than measuring the liability at its intrinsic value. SFAS No. 123R requires entities to estimate the number of instruments for which the requisite service period is expected to be rendered rather than accounting for forfeitures as they occur. Under SFAS No. 123R, modifications to the terms or conditions

of an award are measured by comparing the fair value of the modified award with the fair value of the award immediately before the modification, as opposed to measuring the effects of a modification as the difference between the fair value of the modified award at the date it is granted and the awards value immediately before the modification. SFAS No. 123R will also clarify and expand current guidance under SFAS No. 123 including the measurement of fair value, classifying an award as either equity or as a liability and attributing compensation cost to reporting periods. SFAS No. 123R amends SFAS No. 95 requiring that the excess tax benefits be reported as a financing cash inflow rather than as a reduction of taxes paid. The statement is effective in the first annual reporting period beginning after June 15, 2005.

SFAS No. 123R provides two alternatives for adoption: (1) a “modified prospective” method in which compensation cost is recognized for all awards granted subsequent to the effective date of this Statement as well as for the unvested portion of awards outstanding as of the effective date and (2) a “modified retrospective” method which follows the approach in the “modified prospective” method, but also permits entities to restate prior periods to reflect compensation cost calculated under SFAS No. 123 for pro forma amounts disclosure. The Company plans to adopt SFAS No. 123R using the modified prospective method. The adoption of SFAS No. 123R is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s results of operations or financial position.

In January 2003, the FASB issued Financial Interpretation No. (“FIN”) 46 “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities” which was amended by FIN 46R in December, 2003. A variable interest entity is a corporation, partnership, trust or any other legal structure used for business purposes that either (a) does not have equity investors with voting rights, or (b) has equity investors that do not provide sufficient financial resources for the entity to support its activities. Historically, entities generally were not consolidated unless the entity was controlled through voting interests. FIN 46R changes that by requiring a variable interest entity to be consolidated by a company if that company is subject to a majority of the risk of loss from the variable interest entity’s activities or entitled to receive a majority of the entity’s residual returns or both. A company that consolidates a variable interest entity is called the “primary beneficiary” of that entity. FIN 46R also requires disclosures about variable interest entities that a company is not required to consolidate but in which it has a significant variable interest. The consolidation requirements of FIN 46R have been adopted by the Company. FIN 46R did not have any impact on the consolidated financial statements of the Company since it currently has no variable interest entities.

NOTE 7 - Promissory Note-Related Party

On September 1, 2004, the Company issued a promissory note (“Promissory Note”) to an affiliate of the Stanford Financial Group (“SFG”) (its controlling stockholder) in the amount of $300,000 for PCS licenses in the United States Virgin Islands and Bloomington, Illinois. The Promissory Note accrues interest at the rate of 8% per annum, requires quarterly interest payments and it matures on August 31, 2007. The Company has not made any of the required quarterly interest payments subsequent to September 14, 2004. As of September 14, 2004, the Company accrued $2,860 of interest which has been included in accounts payable and accrued expenses in the accompanying balance sheet. During May 2005, the Company received a modification and extension letter stipulating that SFG will convert such debt and accrued interest into equity in connection with the pending acquisitions discussed in Note 12. In the event the pending acquisitions are not consummated, SFG has agreed not to demand repayment prior to the due date.

The Company has classified the promissory note as current since it’s expected to be repaid or converted into equity during 2005.

NOTE 8 - Revolver Facility-Related Party

On May 20, 2004, the Company entered into a one year Loan and Security Agreement (“L&S Agreement”) with Stanford Venture Capital Holdings, Inc. (“SVCH”) an affiliate of SFG (its controlling stockholder). The L&S Agreement is collateralized by all of the Company’s assets. The maximum amount available is $5,000,000 and bears interest at the rate of 8% per annum on the outstanding balance. Principal and any accrued interest are required to be paid whenever any collateral is sold. Amounts may be repaid and re-borrowed anytime before May 19, 2005, the maturity date.

The L&S Agreement contains restrictions and other financial covenants relating to, among other things, limitations on the incurrence of additional indebtedness and liens, asset sales, and capital expenditures. At September 14, 2004, the outstanding borrowings under the L&S Agreement amounted to $3,000,000. The Company accrued interest of $56,425, which has been included in the accounts payable and accrued expenses in the accompanying balance sheet.

On November 24, 2004, the L&S Agreement was amended by increasing the amount available from $5,000,000 to $8,500,000. All other terms and conditions remained the same.

The Company was unable to repay the amount outstanding on the maturity date, May 19, 2005. During May 2005, the Company received a modification and extension letter stipulating that SVCH will convert the debt and related accrued interest into equity in connection with the pending acquisitions discussed in Note 12. In the event the acquisitions are not consummated, SVCH has agreed not to demand repayment until May 2006.

NOTE 9 - Stockholders’ Deficiency

Common Stock

The Company has 20,000,000 shares of authorized common stock, par value $0.001 per share. At inception, the Company issued an aggregate of 826,875 shares of common stock to its founders. The Company also issued 562,500 shares of common stock to its Chief Executive Officer and placed them in escrow (not reflected as outstanding) for future release based on his performance. The shares will be released to its Chief Executive Officer subject to the Company reaching not less than $50 million of consolidated revenue and not less than $5 million of consolidated pre-tax income, for a calendar year ending on or prior to December 31, 2006. The Company will record a charge to its operations based on the fair market value of the shares on the date the performance conditions are attained.

The Company had issued 860,625 shares of its common stock pursuant to performance conditions by certain other officers which were not met. Accordingly, such shares were forfeited and were never deemed outstanding.

Convertible Preferred Stock

The Company has 2,250,000 shares of authorized preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share. During October of 2003, the Company entered into an agreement to sell 2,250,000 shares of its Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (“Preferred Stock”). Under the terms of the agreement SVCH purchased 2,250,000 shares of Preferred Stock for an aggregate $1,600,000. In addition, SVCH received assignable warrants to purchase 2,250,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $0.001 at any time prior to December 31, 2010. The terms of the Preferred Stock include an optional conversion by the holder at any time into shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion rate of the stated value of the preferred stock divided by $0.71 subject to certain standard adjustments. In addition, the terms of the Preferred Stock call for an automatic conversion into shares of the Company’s common stock at the earlier of a) a vote of at least two-thirds of the then outstanding shares of the Preferred Stock or b) the closing of a qualified public offering, as defined. The preferred stockholders shall be entitled to vote at any meetings of stockholders. Each share of preferred stock shall be entitled to one vote for each share of common stock such shares of preferred stock would be convertible into and has a $1,600,000 liquidation preference. The preferred stockholders are not entitled to receive dividends.

The Company valued the warrant issued to SVCH at $800,000 using the Black-Scholes pricing model, thereby allocating a portion of the proceeds from the Preferred Stock to the warrant using the relative fair value of the Preferred Stock and warrant to the actual proceeds from the Preferred Stock.

In connection with the sale and issuance of the Preferred Stock, the Company reported $787,500 as a deemed dividend to the preferred stockholders representing the beneficial conversion value of the underlying common stock. The beneficial conversion value represents the difference between the fair value of the underlying common stock on the date the Preferred Stock was sold and the price at which the Preferred Stock could be converted into common stock. The beneficial conversion value is treated as a deemed dividend and it is presented on the statement of operations as a reduction of net loss or loss applicable to common stockholders.

NOTE 10 - Commitments and Contingencies

Operating Leases

The Company leases certain plant, office and warehouse space as well as machinery, vehicles, data processing and other equipment. Certain of these operating leases have renewal options at reduced rates and provisions requiring the Company to pay maintenance, property taxes and insurance. Total rental expense under operating leases, excluding maintenance, taxes and insurance amounted to $136,525 from October 1, 2003 (date of inception) to September 14, 2004.

At September 14, 2004, the future payments for all operating leases with remaining lease terms in excess of one year, excluding maintenance, taxes and insurance were as follows:

The agreements are for five years with two successive renewal options of two years each. The agreements cover various performance and other employment matters and include an annual base salary of $250,000 per individual. Subsequent to September 14, 2004, the Company’s Chief Operating Officer was terminated for reasons other than cause thereby canceling the related employment agreement.

Write-Off of Advance to Affiliate

As of September 14, 2004, the Company wrote-off advances to affiliated companies as a result of the affiliated companies filing for bankruptcy.

As of September 14, 2004, the Company had advanced $38,984 to its Chief Operating Officer as part of a moving expense allowance pursuant to an employment agreement.

NOTE 12 - Subsequent Events

Effective December 31, 2004, the Company legally merged with Solutions by virtue of SVCH (controlling stockholder) canceling its Preferred Stock and warrants and by allowing the remaining stockholders of the Company to exchange their 826,875 shares of common stock for 826,875 (pre-split) shares of Solutions common stock. Accordingly, on December 31, 2004, the Company became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Solutions. Additionally, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer received rights to convert 562,500 shares of the Company’s unvested common stock into 562,500 shares of Solutions’ common stock upon meeting certain performance provisions as outlined in Note 9.

On July 22, 2005, the Company’s parent, Solutions, entered into an agreement to purchase 100% of the partnership interests of AST Telecom, LLC (AST). AST is headquartered in Pago Pago, American Samoa and operates under the brand name of Blue Sky Communications. AST is a provider of wireless telephone services in American Samoa via its wireless network. AST is majority owned (approximately 70%) by SVCH.

On July 22, 2005, the Company’s parent, Solutions, executed a merger agreement with Datec Group Ltd, (“Datec”) a New Brunswick, Canada, corporation, and its subsidiaries. Datec is a publicly-traded company on the Toronto Stock Exchange. Datec is a provider of information technology and services in Australia, Fiji, New Zealand, Papua New Guinea, Samoa, the Solomon Islands, Tonga, and Vanuatu.

Closing of the above acquisitions are subject to due diligence, and stockholder and various regulatory approvals. There can be no assurances that the acquisitions will be consummated.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors of

Elandia, Inc. and Subsidiaries

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Elandia, Inc. and Subsidiaries, (formally known as eLandia Solutions, Inc. and Subsidiaries) (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2005, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ deficiency and cash flows for the year then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Elandia, Inc. and Subsidiaries, formally known as eLandia Solutions, Inc. and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2005, and the results of its operations, and its cash flows for the year then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 - Organization and Business

Company

Elandia, Inc. formerly known as eLandia Solutions, Inc. and Subsidiaries (the “Company” or the “Successor Company”) was known as Centra Industries, Inc. prior to its merger with eLandia Technologies, Inc. (“Technologies”) on December 31, 2004.

On August 1, 2003, the Company’s main operating subsidiary, eLandia Infrastructure, Inc. (“Infrastructure”), formerly known as Midwest Cable Communications of Arkansas, Inc. filed a voluntary petition for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code (“Bankruptcy Code”) in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Western District of Arkansas (the “Bankruptcy Court”).

On January 8, 2004, the Company also filed a voluntary petition for reorganization under the Bankruptcy Code in the Bankruptcy Court. The Company operated its business and managed its assets in the ordinary course effectively from August 1, 2003 to September 14, 2004 as debtor-in-possession, and obtained Bankruptcy Court approval for transactions outside the ordinary course of business.

By order dated September 14, 2004, (the “Confirmation Date”) the Bankruptcy Court confirmed the Joint Plan of Reorganization (the “POR”) of the Company and Infrastructure. Accordingly, on September 14, 2004, the Company emerged from reorganization under Chapter 11 of The United States Bankruptcy Code.

Pursuant to the POR, all of the outstanding common stock of the Company was cancelled on September 14, 2004, and new issuances were made to the holders of allowed pre-petition claims against the Company and for the conversion of certain debtor-in-possession financing (“DIP Financing”) provided by Stanford Venture Capital Holdings (“SVCH”).

On the Confirmation Date, the Company issued 108,000 shares of newly authorized common stock to the holders of allowed pre-petition claims for the settlement of such claims and the equivalent of 3,915,000 shares of newly authorized common stock to SVCH for the conversion of certain DIP Financing and other secured claims which amounted to $2,576,682. The Company’s POR also provided that the Company pay $110,000 to holders of allowed pre-petition claims.

During February 2006, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a 3 for 5 reverse stock split for the outstanding shares of common stock. All share and per share information in these consolidated financial statements have been adjusted retroactively to reflect this reverse stock split.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

NOTE 1 - Organization and Business, continued

Business

Commencing during the first quarter of 2005, the Company committed to a plan for disposing substantially all of its operations. The Company’s future plans are to generate revenue by utilizing its remaining assets comprised primarily of Personal Communication Services (“PCS”) licenses and acquire existing operating providers of wireless telephone services and providers of information technology and services.

Prior to January 2005, the Company was involved in: i) setting up wireless internet capabilities in major hotel and apartment complexes, ii) provided end-to-end infrastructure solutions for the wireless communication and cable television industries, which was comprised primarily of maintaining and constructing cell towers and iii) provided underground horizontal directional boring technology and related underground construction services to telecommunication and cable television providers, water and sewer systems, and natural gas pipelines. As of December 31, 2005, the Company’s main remaining assets (other than assets from discontinued operations) are the PCS licenses.

The above operations were conducted through the Company’s wholly owned subsidiaries as follows:

 

Technologies (legally merged with the Company on December 31, 2004)    Owns PCS licenses
Roughwaters, LLC (“Roughwaters”)    A subsidiary of Technologies, which maintained and constructed cell towers
Infrastructure    Provided construction services primarily composed of underground boring for cable and telephone companies

As of December 31, 2005, the Company’s three remaining subsidiaries, Centra Construction, Inc., Centra Wireless Solutions, Inc., and Razorback, Inc., which were inactive, were sold to an unrelated foreign national. (Note 5).

NOTE 2 - Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

NOTE 2 - Significant Accounting Policies, continued

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Such estimates and assumptions impact, among others, the following: the amount to be realized upon the sale of assets held for sale and the settlement of liabilities of discontinued operations, the amount to be paid for tax liabilities and the amount of costs capitalized in connection with the wireless licenses. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Furniture and Equipment

Furniture and equipment has been recorded at cost. Expenditures for major improvements are capitalized, while maintenance and repair costs that do not significantly improve the related asset or extend its useful life are charged to expense as incurred. For financial reporting purposes, furniture and equipment are depreciated primarily by the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets which generally range between five to seven years.

Wireless Licenses

Wireless licenses consist of the original costs to acquire the PCS wireless licenses along with the long term maintenance costs necessary to maintain the licenses active. The costs to acquire the wireless licenses as well as the legal and other non-equipment related costs necessary to activate the wireless licenses are capitalized and amortized over the period in which the Company expects to derive benefits, which is principally five or ten years. As of December 31, 2005, the Company has not amortized these licenses since they have not been placed in service.

Reorganization Value

On September 14, 2004, in connection with the application of fresh-start accounting, the Company recorded $4,626,730 of reorganization value representing the excess value of the Successor Company’s enterprise value over the aggregate fair value of the Successor Company’s tangible and identifiable assets and liabilities at the Confirmation Date. Reorganization value is not amortized but is reviewed annually or more frequently under certain conditions for impairment in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Statement No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets” (Note 4). The reorganization value has been allocated entirely to the “assets from discontinued operations held for sale”.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue based upon the work performed, which is specifically identified and pursuant to the terms of contracts. Cost of revenue includes direct material and labor costs and those indirect costs related to contract performance, such as indirect labor, supplies, tools, repairs and depreciation.

The Company recognizes revenue when all of the following are present:

Persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists between the Company and its customers;

Delivery has occurred or the services have been rendered;

The price for the service is fixed or determinable; and

Collectibility is reasonably assured.

Fair Values

The Company has determined the estimated fair value amounts presented in these consolidated financial statements using available market information and appropriate methodologies. However, considerable judgment is required in interpreting market data to develop the estimates of fair value. The estimates presented in these consolidated financial statements are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that the Company could realize in a current market exchange. The use of different market assumptions and/or estimation methodologies may have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts. The Company has based these fair value estimates on pertinent information available to it as of December 31, 2005. As of December 31, 2005, the carrying value of all financial instruments approximates fair value.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes,” which requires the use of the “liability method” of accounting for income taxes. Accordingly, deferred tax liabilities and assets are determined based on the difference between the financial statement and income tax bases of assets and liabilities, using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. A valuation allowance is required if, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Management concluded a full valuation allowance was appropriate at December 31, 2005 due to operating losses incurred. Current income taxes are based on the respective periods’ taxable income for federal and state income tax reporting purposes.

Stock-Based Compensation Plans

The Company adopted the disclosure provisions of SFAS No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation-Transition and Disclosure”, which amends SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation.” SFAS No. 148 provides alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation, which was originally provided under SFAS No. 123. The Statement also improves the timeliness of disclosures by requiring the information be included in interim, as well as annual, financial statements. SFAS No. 123 encourages, but does not require companies to record compensation cost for stock-based employee compensation plans at fair value. The Company accounts for stock-based compensation using the intrinsic value method prescribed in Accounting Principles Board Opinion (“APB”) No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees”, and related Interpretations. Accordingly, compensation cost for stock options is measured as the excess, if any, of the quoted market price of the Company’s stock at the date of the grant over the amount an employee must pay to acquire the stock. The Company did not grant any stock options as of December 31, 2005.

Loss Per Share

The Company presents both basic and diluted loss from continuing and discontinued operations per share and net loss per share on the face of the statement of operations. As provided by SFAS 128, “Earnings per Share,” basic loss from continuing and discontinued operations and net loss per share is calculated as the loss attributable to common stockholders divided by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period.

NOTE 2 - Significant Accounting Policies Loss Per Share, continued

Loss Per Share, continued

Diluted loss per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur from common shares issuable through stock options, warrants and convertible preferred stock. As of December 31, 2005, there were no outstanding stock options, warrants or convertible preferred stock instruments to be included in the diluted loss per share computation. However, there were 357,751 shares of unvested common stock not included in either the common shares outstanding or the basic or diluted loss per share calculations since the result would be antidilutive.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

On December 16, 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued SFAS No. 123R (revised 2004), Share Based Payment, which is a revision of SFAS No. 123. SFAS No. 123R also supersedes APB 25 and amends SFAS No. 95, Statement of Cash Flows. SFAS No. 123R differs from SFAS No. 123, by requiring all entities to measure liabilities incurred in stock based payment transactions at fair value rather than measuring the liability at its intrinsic value. SFAS No. 123R requires entities to estimate the number of instruments for which the requisite service period is expected to be rendered rather than accounting for forfeitures as they occur. SFAS No. 123R amends SFAS No. 95 requiring that the excess tax benefits be reported as a financing cash inflow rather than as a reduction of taxes paid. The statement is effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2006. As the Company currently has no stock options outstanding, the adoption of SFAS No. 123R is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s results of operations or financial position.

In January 2003, the FASB issued Financial Interpretation No. (“FIN”) 46 “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities” which was amended by FIN 46R in December, 2003. A variable interest entity is a corporation, partnership, trust or any other legal structure used for business purposes that either (a) does not have equity investors with voting rights, or (b) has equity investors that do not provide sufficient financial resources for the entity to support its activities. Historically, entities generally were not consolidated unless the entity was controlled through voting interests. FIN 46R changes that by requiring a variable interest entity to be consolidated by a company if that company is subject to a majority of the risk of loss from the variable interest entity’s activities or entitled to receive a majority of the entity’s residual returns or both. A company that consolidates a variable interest entity is called the “primary beneficiary” of that entity. The consolidation requirements of FIN 46R have been adopted. FIN 46R did not have any impact on the consolidated financial statements of the Company since it currently has no variable interest entities.

NOTE 2 - Significant Accounting Policies, continued

Recent Accounting Pronouncements, continued

In May 2005, the FASB issued SFAS No. 154, “Accounting Changes and Error Corrections.” This statement applies to all voluntary changes in accounting principle and requires retrospective application to prior periods’ financial statement of changes in accounting principle, unless this would be impracticable. This statement also makes a distinction between “retrospective application” of an accounting principle and the “restatement” of financial statements to reflect the correction of an error. This statement is effective for accounting changes and corrections of errors made in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005. The Company is evaluating the effect the adoption of this interpretation will have on its financial position, cash flows and results of operations.

In June 2006, FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes- an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (“FIN 48”). This Interpretation clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements in accordance with FASB Statement No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. This Interpretation prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. This Interpretation also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition. The evaluation of a tax position in accordance with this Interpretation is a two-step process with the first step being recognition and the second step measurement. Differences between tax positions taken in a tax return and amounts recognized in the financial statement will generally result in one of the following: (a) an increase in a liability for income taxes payable or a reduction of an income tax refund receivable; (b) a reduction in a deferred tax asset or an increase in a deferred tax liability. This Interpretation is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. The Company has not yet adopted FIN 48 and does not expect the adoption to have a material impact on its financial condition or results of operations.

NOTE 3 - Management Plans

As of December 31, 2005, the Company had a working capital deficiency of $1,880,981 and incurred a net loss of $11,362,831 for the year then ended. As part of the Company’s merger with the operating subsidiaries of Datec Group Ltd. (“Datec”) and AST Telecom, LLC (“AST”) (Note 12), $13,234,663 (representing principal and accrued interest) comprised of the Company’s Secured Revolver Note, Promissory Note and Revolver Facility were contributed to capital by SVCH. Additionally, during February 2006, the

Company was able to secure a debt facility in the amount of $2,300,000 (increased to $3,300,000 on July 24, 2006) for working capital from an affiliate of its majority stockholder. The Company has also reduced its administrative overhead expenses where necessary and feasible as part of the sale of discontinued operations. Management believes that with the closing of its mergers and the reduction of expenses, the combined companies will begin to generate positive cash flows from operations. There can be no assurance that the plans and actions taken by management will be successful and the Company may have to secure additional funding sources in the future.

NOTE 4 - Discontinued Operations

During January 2005, the Company committed to a plan to discontinue its business related to the installation of wireless internet capabilities in hotels and apartment complexes, the end-to-end infrastructure wireless solutions provided through its wholly-owned subsidiary Roughwaters and its construction services relating to underground boring for cable and telephone companies. Accordingly, all those operations have been presented as discontinued.

In connection with the Company discontinuing its operations, it recorded i) an impairment charge for its reorganization value associated with the equipment used amounting to $4,626,730, ii) a gain on sale of subsidiaries amounting to $463,440 (Note 5), iii) a gain on settlement of notes payable on equipment sold and settlement of various accounts payables aggregating to $501,874 (Note 10) and, iv) a loss on machinery and equipment sold as a part of the discontinued operations amounting to $1,859,507. Accordingly, the total loss from discontinued operations amounted $6,884,217.

NOTE 5 - Sale of Subsidiaries

During December 2005, the Company sold all of the common stock of its inactive subsidiaries, Centra Wireless Solutions, Inc., Centra Construction, Inc. and Razorback, Inc. (collectively Subsidiaries) to an unrelated foreign national (“Foreign National”). All three of these Subsidiaries were part of the discontinued operations, and were dormant for the year ended December 31, 2005. Under the terms of the sale, the Foreign National assumed all liabilities of the Subsidiaries which consisted of $464,640 of payroll tax liabilities that arose prior to the filing of bankruptcy by the Company in exchange for all the assets of the Subsidiaries which consisted of $1,200 of cash. As a result of the sale, the Company was released as the obligor of the payroll tax liabilities. However, no assurance can be given that either the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) or a “responsible person” under the IRS rules will not initiate an action against the Company for these tax liabilities. The Company recorded a gain of $463,440 from discontinued operations as a result of this transaction.

NOTE 7 - Secured Revolver Note - Related Party

Pursuant to a Debtor-in-Possession Financing Agreement (“DIP Financing”) executed on September 15, 2003, SVCH loaned the Company $2,000,000 in a form of a secured, super priority line of credit which bore interest at 8% per annum and due on April 16, 2004. On October 25, 2004, SVCH loaned an additional $2,500,000 to the Company under a supplemental super priority line of credit. On September 14, 2004, $2,000,000 of obligations relating to the initial DIP Financing along with other secured claims and accrued interest amounting to $576,682 were converted into common stock as part of the POR. On October 25, 2004, $2,500,000 of obligation relating to the Company’s supplemental DIP Financing was converted to a secured revolver note (“Secured Revolver Note”) with SVCH. The Secured Revolver Note was due on October 24, 2005 and bore interest at the rate of 8% per annum. Substantially all of the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries were pledged as collateral under the secured revolver note agreement.

The Secured Revolver Note contained restrictions and financial covenants relating to, among other things, limitations on the incurrence of additional indebtedness and liens, asset sales, and capital expenditures. As of December 31, 2005, the Company was not in compliance with such financial covenants. As of December 31, 2005, accrued interest amounted to $305,157. Interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2005 amounted to $200,000.

During May 2005, the Company received a modification and extension letter stipulating that SVCH would contribute the debt and related accrued interest into equity in connection with the acquisitions discussed in Note 12. The debt and accrued interest was contributed into equity on January 31, 2006 and accordingly, the secured revolver note and related accrued interest is presented as a long term liability as of December 31, 2005, in accordance with SFAS No. 6.

NOTE 8 - Promissory Note - Related Party

On September 1, 2004, Technologies had issued a promissory note (“Promissory Note”) to Stanford Financial Group (“SFG”), an affiliate of SVCH (its majority stockholder) in the amount of $300,000 for the acquisition of PCS wireless licenses in the United States Virgin Islands and Bloomington, IL. The Promissory Note was assumed by the Company as part of its merger with Technologies (Note 1). The Promissory Note accrued interest at the rate of 8% per annum, required quarterly interest payments and was to mature on August 31, 2007. The Company had not made any of the required quarterly interest payments as of December 31, 2005. Accordingly, such Promissory Note was deemed to be in default. As of December 31, 2005, the Company accrued $47,934 as interest expense. Interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2005 amounted to $36,000.

The promissory note and related accrued interest was contributed into equity on January 31, 2006 and accordingly, both principal and accrued interest has been classified as long term as of December 31, 2005 in accordance with SFAS No. 6.

NOTE 9 - Revolver Facility - Related Party

On May 20, 2004, Technologies entered into a one year Loan and Security Agreement (“L&S Agreement”) with SVCH. The L&S Agreement is collateralized by all of Technologies’ assets. The maximum amount available was $5,000,000 which bore interest at the rate of 8% per annum on the outstanding balance. Principal and any accrued interest were required to be paid whenever any collateral is sold. Amounts were to be repaid and re-borrowed any time before May 19, 2005, the maturity date.

The L&S Agreement contained restrictions and other financial covenants relating to, among other things, limitations on the incurrence of additional indebtedness and liens, asset sales, and capital expenditures. As of December 31, 2005, the Company was not in compliance with such financial covenants.

The L&S Agreement, which had a balance of $3,000,000 on September 15, 2005, was assumed by the Company as part of its merger with Technologies. On November 24, 2004 the L&S Agreement was amended by increasing the amount available from $5,000,000 to $8,500,000. All other terms and conditions remained the same. At December 31, 2005, the outstanding borrowings under the L&S Agreement amounted to $8,500,000. As a result of the default, interest had been accrued at the default rate of 15%. As of December 31, 2005, the Company accrued $1,580,632 as interest expense. Interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2005 amounted to $1,409,207.

During May 2005, the Company received a modification and extension letter stipulating that SVCH will contribute the debt and related accrued interest into equity in connection with the acquisitions discussed in Note 12. The revolver facility and related accrued interest was contributed into equity on January 31, 2006 and accordingly, both principal and accrued interest has been classified as long term as of December 31, 2005 in accordance with SFAS No. 6.

Settlement Agreement

On August 18, 2004, the Company entered into a settlement agreement (“the Agreement”) and release with various management members who operated the Company prior to its bankruptcy filing. As part of the agreement, the Company agreed to pay a total of $250,000 to prior management in exchange for a full and final settlement of all ownership and other compensation claims that existed as a result of the bankruptcy or subsequent to the bankruptcy. In return, the Company’s former management agreed to be governed by certain terms in the agreement including confidentiality requirements and a non-compete agreement with the Company. Pursuant to the settlement agreement, if there are any breaches by the former management, the Company is no longer liable for any outstanding balance at the time of default. During 2005, the former management defaulted under the agreement. Accordingly, the Company recognized a gain on debt discharge in the amount of approximately $147,000, which has been included in gain on sale of subsidiaries and debt discharge.

Operating Lease

The Company leased certain plant, office and warehouse space as well as machinery, vehicles, data processing and other equipment. Certain leases had renewal options at reduced rates and provisions requiring the Company to pay maintenance, property taxes and insurance. Generally, all rental payments are fixed. The Company’s assets and obligations under capital lease arrangements are not significant and are included in the assets and liabilities of discontinued operations, respectively.

Total rental expense under operating leases, excluding maintenance, taxes and insurance, was $89,606 for the year ended December 31, 2005, and are included in discontinued operations.

At December 31, 2005, the future payments for all operating leases with remaining lease terms in excess of one year, and excluding maintenance, taxes and insurance were as follows:

Employment Agreements

The Company was a party to three separate executive employment agreements, one with its Chief Executive Officer, one with its Chief Operating Officer and one with its Chief Financial Officer. The agreements with its Chief Executive Officer (see Note 13d) and Chief Operating Officer each had an effective date of April 1, 2004, were for five years with two successive renewal options of two years each. The agreements covered various performance and other employment matters and included an annual base salary of $250,000 each.

The Company’s agreement with its Chief Financial Officer had an effective date of July 1, 2005 (further amended by the Board on February 17, 2006) for five years with two successive renewal options of two years each. The agreement covers various performance and other employment matters and includes an annual base salary of $200,000. In connection with the employment, the Company entered into a stock subscription agreement with its Chief Financial Officer for the purchase of 54,001 shares of the Company’s common stock for an aggregate purchase price of $100. Accordingly, in connection with the issuance of such shares, the Company recorded compensation expense amounting to $225,005 for the year ended December 31, 2005. In addition, pursuant to the stock subscription agreement, the Chief Financial Officer was also granted an additional 54,001 shares of the Company’s common stock. The ownership of the additional 54,001 shares of common stock are subject to repurchase rights by the Company and are not deemed to be outstanding until such time they are earned. The Company has not recorded any expenses in connection with these shares since they are expected to be earned upon the Company reaching certain market capitalization and certain revenue levels. The Company has estimated that it is not probable that the shares will vest. As of December 31, 2005, 108,002 shares are deemed to be issued, but only 54,001 are deemed outstanding.

The above agreements have a change in control clause. If a change in control occurs, the executives have a right to terminate their agreements and receive a one-year severance.

During July 2005, the Company’s Chief Operating Officer was terminated for reasons other than cause thereby canceling the related employment agreement. As of December 31, 2005, the Company has accrued $104,167 in connection with the balance of a one year severance provision.

Pending Legal Matters

From time to time, the Company is involved in various legal matters. At December 31, 2005, management does not believe that any pending matters are material to the financial statements.

NOTE 11 - Stockholders’ Deficiency

In connection with the shares issued for the Technologies merger on December 31, 2004, a majority stockholder of Technologies received rights to receive 303,750 shares of the Company’s common stock if the Company reached no less than $50 million of consolidated revenue and not less than $5 million of pre-tax income prior to December 31, 2006. The shares are reflected as issued but not outstanding at December 31, 2005. The Company will record a charge to its operations based on the fair market value of the shares on the date the performance conditions are met (see Note 13).

On September 14, 2005, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a 9 for 10 reverse stock split of the outstanding shares of common stock. During February 2006, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a 3 for 5 reverse stock split for the outstanding shares of common stock. All share and per share information in these consolidated financial statements have been adjusted retroactively to reflect the reverse stock splits.

During the year ended December 31, 2005, the Company issued 255,740 shares (including the 54,001 issued to its Chief Financial Officer, Note 10) of its common stock to its officers and other consultants in exchange for services. The shares were valued at their estimated fair value resulting in a non-cash compensation expense to the Company of $1,065,591.

Subsequent to year-end, the Company issued 24,000 shares of common stock pursuant to a Director Compensation Plan adopted by the Board of Directors during December 2005. Such shares are in lieu of compensation for service in 2006 for the four board members and the related sub-committees. The Company will record a compensation expense based on the fair market value at the time the shares are earned.

NOTE 12 - Acquisitions

 

  a. AST Telecom LLC

On July 22, 2005, the Company entered into an agreement to purchase 100% of the membership interests of AST. AST is headquartered in Pago Pago, American Samoa and operates under the brand name of Blue Sky Communications. AST is a provider of wireless telephone services in American Samoa via its wireless network. AST is majority owned (approximately 65%) by SVCH. On the effective date of the acquisition, January 31, 2006, the Company issued a total of 4,225,726 shares of its common stock of which 2,739,008 was issued to SVCH, AST’s majority interest owner and 1,486,718 to AST’s minority interest owners. The acquisition of AST is accounted for as a common control merger (similar to pooling) for the majority membership interest owned by SVCH. The 35% minority interest is recorded at fair value. The total cost of the AST acquisition is estimated at approximately $7,473,000. The Company intends to retain an independent appraisal firm to complete a valuation of the consideration paid and the minority interest purchase price allocation in accordance with SFAS No. 141. The Company has made a good faith estimate to allocate the purchase price of AST.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Board of Directors and Stockholders of

eLandia Solutions, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of eLandia Solutions, Inc. (formerly Centra Industries, Inc.) and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2004 (Successor), and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ deficiency, and cash flows from January 1, 2004 to September 14, 2004 (Predecessor) and from September 15, 2004 to December 31, 2004 (Successor). These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of eLandia Solutions, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2004 (Successor), and the results of their operations and their cash flows from January 1, 2004 to September 14, 2004 (Predecessor) and from September 15, 2004 to December 31, 2004 (Successor), in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Table of Contents

As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, effective September 14, 2004, the Company emerged from bankruptcy and applied fresh-start accounting commencing September 15, 2004. As a result, the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2004 and the related statements of operations and cash flows of the successor company from September 15, 2004 to December 31, 2004 are presented on a different basis of accounting than that of the predecessor company for the periods before fresh-start and, therefore, are not comparable.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 - Organization and Business

Company

eLandia Solutions Inc. (the “Company” or the “Successor Company”) was known as Centra Industries, Inc. prior to its merger with eLandia Technologies, Inc. (“Technologies”) on December 31, 2004. (Note 5)

On August 1, 2003, the Company’s main operating subsidiary, eLandia Infrastructure, Inc. (“Infrastructure”), formerly known as Midwest Cable Communications of Arkansas, Inc. filed a voluntary petition for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code (“Bankruptcy Code”) in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Western District of Arkansas (the “Bankruptcy Court”).

On January 8, 2004, the Company also filed a voluntary petition for reorganization under the Bankruptcy Code in the Bankruptcy Court. The Company operated its business and managed its assets in the ordinary course effectively from August 1, 2003 to September 14, 2004 as debtor-in-possession, and obtained Bankruptcy Court approval for transactions outside the ordinary course of business.

By order dated September 14, 2004, (the “Confirmation Date”) the Bankruptcy Court confirmed the Joint Plan of Reorganization (the “POR”) of the Company and Infrastructure. Accordingly, on September 14, 2004, the Company emerged from reorganization under Chapter 11 of The United States Bankruptcy Code.

Pursuant to the POR, all of the outstanding common stock of the Company was cancelled on September 14, 2004, and new issuances were made to the holders of allowed pre-petition claims against the Company and for the conversion of certain debtor-in-possession financing (“DIP Financing”) provided by Stanford Venture Capital Holdings (“SVCH”).

On the Confirmation Date, the Company issued 108,000 shares of newly authorized common stock to the holders of allowed pre-petition claims for the settlement of such claims and the equivalent of 3,915,000 shares of newly authorized common stock to SVCH for the conversion of certain DIP Financing and other secured claims which amounted to $2,576,682. The Company’s POR also provided that the Company pay $110,000 to holders of allowed pre-petition claims.

During February 2006, the Board of Directors approved a 3 for 5 reverse stock split of the outstanding shares of common stock. All share and per share information in these consolidated financial statements have been adjusted to reflect this reverse stock split.

The Company operated its business as a debtor-in-possession subject to the jurisdiction of the Bankruptcy Court during the period from August 1, 2003 until September 14, 2004, the Confirmation Date. Accordingly, the Company’s consolidated financial statements for periods prior to its emergence from Chapter 11 reorganization were prepared in accordance with the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants Statement of Position 90-7, 11 “Financial Reporting by Entities in Reorganization Under the Bankruptcy Code 11” (“SOP 90-7”). In addition, the Company adopted fresh-start reporting upon its emergence from Chapter 11 reorganization in accordance with SOP 90-7. For financial reporting purposes, the effects of the consummation of the POR as well as adjustments for fresh-start reporting have been recorded in the accompanying consolidated financial statements as of September 14, 2004 and from January 1, 2004 to September 14, 2004 (Predecessor Company financial statements).

Pursuant to fresh-start reporting, a new entity was deemed created for financial reporting purposes and the carrying values of assets and liabilities were adjusted. The carrying values of assets were adjusted to their reorganization values that are equivalent to their estimated fair values. The carrying values of liabilities were adjusted to their present values.

The reorganization value was determined using various valuation methods including, (i) reviewing historical financial information, (ii) comparing the Company and its projected performance to the market values of comparable companies, (iii) performing industry precedent transaction analysis, and (iv) considering certain economic and industry information relevant to the operating business. While the discounted cash flow approach was one of the three approaches used to determine reorganization value, it was not the sole method used in the determination. This use of multiple approaches is consistent with methods used to determine value in most purchase business combinations.

The following table describes the periods presented in the consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto:

Adjustments reflected in the reorganized condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 14, 2004 are as follows:

 

  a. Liabilities subject to compromise have been adjusted to reflect the settlement of the claims for cash and/or issuance of common shares in the reorganized Company.

 

  b. The Successor Company has recorded excess of reorganization value over the fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities in accordance with SFAS No. 141.

 

  c. Upon emergence from Chapter 11 Bankruptcy, SVCH converted approximately $2,600,000 of DIP Financing into 2,038,500 shares of common stock and 3,127,500 warrants exercisable at $.00001 per share.

 

  d. Upon emergence from Chapter 11 Bankruptcy, the Company issued 108,000 shares of common stock to holders of allowed pre-petition claims. The $71,081 value assigned to the 108,000 shares represents the stockholders’ deficiency immediately after the fresh-start adjustment.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The consolidated statements of operations and cash flows include the operations of Technologies from September 15, 2004. (Note 5)

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Such estimates and assumptions impact, among others, the following: the amounts of uncollectible accounts receivable, the amount to be realized upon the sale of assets held for sale and the settlement of liabilities of discontinued operations, the amount to be paid for tax liabilities and the amount of costs capitalized in connection with the wireless licenses. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

The Company’s accounts receivables are stated at outstanding principal balance, net of allowance for doubtful accounts. Allowances for doubtful accounts are estimated based on the current aging of accounts receivables, prior collection experience and future expectations of conditions that might impact recoverability. The allowance for doubtful accounts amounted to $378,793 at December 31, 2004 and was included in “assets from discontinued operations held for sale”.

Furniture and Equipment

Furniture and equipment has been recorded at cost. Expenditures for major improvements are capitalized, while maintenance and repair costs that do not significantly improve the related asset or extend its useful life are charged to expense as incurred. For financial reporting purposes, furniture and equipment are depreciated primarily by the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets which generally range between five to seven years.

Intangible Assets

Intangible assets consist of the original costs to acquire the PCS wireless licenses along with the long term maintenance costs necessary to maintain the licenses active. The costs to acquire the wireless licenses as well as the legal and other non-equipment related costs necessary to activate the wireless licenses are capitalized and amortized over the period in which the Company expects to derive benefits, which is principally five or ten years. As of December 31, 2004, the Company has not amortized these licenses since they have not been placed in service.

Reorganization Value

On September 14, 2004, in connection with the application of fresh-start accounting, the Company recorded $4,631,022 of reorganization value representing the excess value of the Successor Company’s enterprise value over the aggregate fair value of the Successor Company’s tangible and identifiable assets and liabilities at the Confirmation Date. Reorganization value is not amortized but will be reviewed annually or more frequently under certain conditions for impairment in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Statement No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets”. The reorganization value has been allocated entirely to the “assets from discontinued operations held for sale”.

Concentrations of Credit Risk- Significant Customers of Discontinued Operations

The Company’s financial instruments that are exposed to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of trade receivables. As of December 31, 2004, three customers accounted for 24%, 18%, and 14% of the Company’s accounts receivable and from September 15, 2004 to December 31, 2004, the same three customers accounted for 29%, 20%, and 16%, respectively, of the Company’s revenue.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue based upon the work performed, which is specifically identified and pursuant to the terms of contracts. Cost of revenue includes direct material and labor costs and those indirect costs related to contract performance, such as indirect labor, supplies, tools, repairs and depreciation.

Revenue Recognition, continued

 

The Company recognizes revenue when all of the following are present:

 

    Persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists between the Company and its customers;

 

    Delivery has occurred or the services have been rendered;

 

    The price for the service is fixed or determinable; and

 

    Collectibility is reasonably assured.

Fair Values

The Company has determined the estimated fair value amounts presented in these consolidated financial statements using available market information and appropriate methodologies. However, considerable judgment is required in interpreting market data to develop the estimates of fair value. The estimates presented in these consolidated financial statements are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that the Company could realize in a current market exchange. The use of different market assumptions and/or estimation methodologies may have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts. The Company has based these fair value estimates on pertinent information available to it as of December 31, 2004. As of December 31, 2004, the carrying value of all financial instruments approximates fair value.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes,” which requires the use of the “liability method” of accounting for income taxes. Accordingly, deferred tax liabilities and assets are determined based on the difference between the financial statement and income tax bases of assets and liabilities, using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. A valuation allowance is required if, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Management concluded a full valuation allowance was appropriate at December 31, 2004 due to operating losses incurred. Current income taxes are based on the respective periods’ taxable income for federal and state income tax reporting purposes.

At December 31, 2004, the Company has net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $9,352,000 which expire through 2024. A portion of the losses are subject to the separate return limitation year rules governed by Internal Revenue Code Section 1503.

Stock-Based Compensation Plans

The Company adopted the disclosure provisions of SFAS No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation-Transition and Disclosure”, which amends SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation.” SFAS No. 148 provides alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation, which was originally provided under SFAS No. 123. The Statement also improves the timeliness of disclosures by requiring the information be included in interim, as well as annual, financial statements. SFAS No. 123 encourages, but does not require companies to record compensation costs for stock-based employee compensation plans at fair value. The Company will account for stock-based compensation using the intrinsic value method prescribed in Accounting Principles Board Opinion (“APB”) No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees”, and related Interpretations. Accordingly, compensation cost for stock options will be measured as the excess, if any, of the quoted market price of the Company’s stock at the date of the grant over the amount an employee must pay to acquire the stock. The Company did not grant any stock options as of December 31, 2004.

Loss Per Share

The Company presents both basic and diluted loss from continuing and discontinued operations per share and net loss per share on the face of the statements of operations. As provided by SFAS 128, “Earnings per Share,” basic loss from continuing and discontinued operations and net loss per share is calculated as the loss attributable to common stockholders divided by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. The 446,513 shares issued on December 31, 2004 in connection with the common control merger are reflected in the basic loss per share calculation retroactively to

NOTE 2 - Significant Accounting Policies, continued

Loss Per Share, continued

 

September 15, 2004, since the operations of Technologies are included in the consolidated results of operations commencing that same date (see Note 5). The 3,127,500 warrants issued to SVCH are reflected in the basic loss per share calculation retroactively to September 15, 2004, since the underlying shares of common stock were immediately exercisable for nominal consideration. Diluted loss per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur from common shares issuable through stock options, warrants and convertible preferred stock. As of December 31, 2004, there were no outstanding stock options, warrants or convertible preferred stock instruments to be included in the diluted loss per share computation. However, there were 303,750 shares of unvested common stock not included in either the common shares outstanding or the basic or diluted loss per share calculations since the result would be antidilutive (see Note 10).

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

On December 16, 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued SFAS No. 123R (revised 2004), Share Based Payment, which is a revision of SFAS No. 123. SFAS No. 123R also supersedes APB 25 and amends SFAS No. 95, Statement of Cash Flows. SFAS No. 123R differs from SFAS No. 123, by requiring all entities to measure liabilities incurred in stock based payment transactions at fair value rather than measuring the liability at its intrinsic value. SFAS No. 123R requires entities to estimate the number of instruments for which the requisite service period is expected to be rendered rather than accounting for forfeitures as they occur. Under SFAS No. 123R, modifications to the terms or conditions of an award are measured by comparing the fair value of the modified award with the fair value of the award immediately before the modification, as opposed to measuring the effects of a modification as the difference between the fair value of the modified award at the date it is granted and the awards value immediately before the modification. SFAS No. 123R will also clarify and expand current guidance under SFAS No. 123 including the measurement of fair value, classifying an award as either equity or as a liability and attributing compensation cost to reporting periods. SFAS No. 123R amends SFAS No. 95 requiring that the excess tax benefits be reported as a financing cash inflow rather than as a reduction of taxes paid. The statement is effective in the first annual reporting period beginning after June 15, 2005.

SFAS No. 123R provides two alternatives for adoption: (1) a “modified prospective” method in which compensation cost is recognized for all awards granted subsequent to the effective date of this statement as well as for the unvested portion of awards outstanding as of the effective date and (2) a “modified retrospective” method which follows the approach in the “modified prospective” method, but also permits entities to restate prior periods to reflect compensation cost calculated under SFAS No. 123 for pro forma amounts disclosure. The Company plans to adopt SFAS No. 123R using the modified prospective method. As the Company currently accounts for share based payments to employees in accordance with the fair value method under SFAS No. 123, the adoption of SFAS No. 123R is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s results of operations or financial position.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements, continued

 

In January 2003, the FASB issued Financial Interpretation No. (“FIN”) 46 “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities” which was amended by FIN 46R in December, 2003. A variable interest entity is a corporation, partnership, trust or any other legal structure used for business purposes that either (a) does not have equity investors with voting rights, or (b) has equity investors that do not provide sufficient financial resources for the entity to support its activities. Historically, entities generally were not consolidated unless the entity was controlled through voting interests. FIN 46R changes that by requiring a variable interest entity to be consolidated by a company if that company is subject to a majority of the risk of loss from the variable interest entity’s activities or entitled to receive a majority of the entity’s residual returns or both. A company that consolidates a variable interest entity is called the “primary beneficiary” of that entity. The consolidation requirements of FIN 46R have been adopted. FIN 46R did not have any impact on the consolidated financial statements of the Company since it currently has no variable interest entities.

NOTE 3 - Discontinued Operations

During January 2005, the Company committed to a plan to discontinue its business related to the installation of wireless internet capabilities in hotels and apartment complexes, the end-to-end infrastructure wireless solutions provided through its wholly-owned subsidiary Roughwaters and its construction services relating to underground boring for cable and telephone companies.

NOTE 5 - Merger with Technologies

Pursuant to a Merger Agreement dated May 20, 2004 with Technologies, the Company legally merged on December 31, 2004 by virtue of issuing 446,513 shares of its common stock to the stockholders of Technologies on a one-for-one exchange for their shares in Technologies. Accordingly, on December 31, 2004, Technologies became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.

SVCH was the majority stockholder of Technologies and became the majority stockholder of the Company upon emergence from bankruptcy on September 15, 2004. As companies under common control, the Company has consolidated the operations of Technologies retroactively to September 15, 2004 in a manner similar to pooling of interests.

NOTE 6 - Secured Revolver Note - Related Party

Pursuant to a Debtor-in-Possession Financing Agreement (“DIP Financing”) executed on September 15, 2003, SVCH loaned the Company $2,000,000 in the form of a secured, super priority line of credit bearing interest at 8% per annum and due on April 16, 2004. On October 25, 2004, SVCH loaned an additional $2,500,000 to the Company under a supplemental super priority line of credit. On September 14, 2004, $2,000,000 of obligations relating to the initial DIP Financing along with other secured claims and accrued interest amounting to $576,682 were converted into common stock as part of the POR. On October 25, 2004, $2,500,000 of obligation relating to the Company’s supplemental DIP Financing was converted to a secured revolver note with SVCH. The secured revolver note is due on October 24, 2005 and bears interest at the rate of 8% per annum. Substantially all of the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries are pledged as collateral under the secured revolver note agreement. During May 2005, the Company received a modification and extension letter stipulating that SVCH will forgive the debt and related accrued interest in connection with the pending acquisitions discussed in Note 12. In the event the acquisitions are not consummated, SVCH has agreed not to demand repayment until May 2006.

The secured revolver note contains restrictions and financial covenants relating to, among other things, limitations on the incurrence of additional indebtedness and liens, asset sales, and capital expenditures. As of December 31, 2004, accrued interest amounted to $105,157 which has been included in accounts payable and accrued expenses in the accompanying balance sheet.

NOTE 7 - Promissory Note - Related Party

On September 1, 2004, Technologies had issued a promissory note (“Promissory Note”) to Stanford Financial Group (“SFG”), an affiliate of SVCH (its majority stockholder) in the amount of $300,000 for the acquisition of PCS wireless licenses in the United States Virgin Islands and Bloomington, IL. The Promissory Note was assumed by the Company as part of the common control merger (see Note 5). The Promissory Note accrues interest at the rate of 8% per annum, requires quarterly interest payments and it matures on August 31, 2007. The Company has not made any of the required quarterly interest payments subsequent to December 31, 2004. Accordingly, the Company classified the Promissory Note as current since it’s deemed to be in default. As of December 31, 2004, the Company accrued $11,934 as interest expense which has been included in accounts payable and accrued expenses in the accompanying balance sheet. During May 2005, Technologies received a modification and extension letter stipulating that SFG will forgive such debt and accrued interest in connection with the pending acquisitions discussed in Note 12. In the event the pending acquisitions are not consummated, SFG has agreed not to demand repayment prior to the due date.

NOTE 8 - Revolver Facility – Related Party

On May 20, 2004, Technologies entered into a one year Loan and Security Agreement (“L&S Agreement”) with SVCH. The L&S Agreement is collateralized by all of Technologies’ assets. The maximum amount available was $5,000,000 and bears interest at the rate of 8% per annum on the outstanding balance. Principal and any accrued interest are required to be paid whenever any collateral is sold. Amounts may be repaid and re-borrowed any time before May 19, 2005, the maturity date.

The L&S Agreement contains restrictions and other financial covenants relating to, among other things, limitations on the incurrence of additional indebtedness and liens, asset sales, and capital expenditures.

The L&S Agreement, which had a balance of $3,000,000 on September 15, 2005, was assumed by the Company as part of the common control merger (see Note 5). On November 24, 2004 the L&S Agreement was amended by increasing the amount available from $5,000,000 to $8,500,000. All other terms and conditions remained the same. At December 31, 2004, the outstanding borrowings under the L&S Agreement amounted to $7,300,000, whereas accrued interest, which is included in accounts payable and accrued expenses in the accompanying balance sheet amounted to $171,425. The Company was unable to repay the amount outstanding on the May 19, 2005 maturity date.

During May 2005, the Company received a modification and extension letter stipulating that SVCH will forgive the debt and related accrued interest into equity in connection with the pending acquisitions discussed in Note 12. In the event the acquisitions are not consummated, SVCH has agreed not to demand repayment until May 2006.

NOTE 9 - Commitments and Contingencies

Settlement Agreement

On August 18, 2004, the Company entered into a settlement agreement and release with various management members who operated the Company prior to its bankruptcy filing. As part of the agreement, the Company agreed to pay a total of $250,000 to prior management in exchange for a full and final settlement of all ownership and other compensation claims that existed as a result of the bankruptcy or subsequent to the bankruptcy. In return, the Company’s former management agreed to be governed by certain terms in the agreement including confidentiality requirements and a non-compete agreement with the Company. The Company ceased making payments under this agreement on October 8, 2004, as it was determined that the terms of the settlement agreement had been breached by prior management. At December 31, 2004, the amount outstanding amounted to $197,607 and has been included in liabilities of discontinued operations.

NOTE 10 - Stockholders’ Deficiency

Common Stock and Warrants

On September 14, 2004, in accordance with the POR, all former outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock were cancelled with new shares to be issued in accordance with the POR to SVCH and to some of its former unsecured creditors. Accordingly, on September 15, 2004, the Company issued 2,038,500 shares of its common stock and 1,876,500 warrants to SVCH and 108,000 shares of its common stock to holders of allowed pre-petition claims. All of the warrants were subsequently exercised.

On December 31, 2004, the Company issued 446,513 shares of common stock to the stockholders of Technologies in exchange for Technologies’ shares in connection with the common control merger effected on December 31, 2004 (Note 5). Additionally, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, previously a Technologies stockholder, also received rights to exchange 303,750 shares of Technologies’ unvested common stock into 303,750 shares of the Company’s common stock upon the Company reaching not less than $50 million of consolidated revenue and not less than $5 million of pre-tax income, for a calendar year ending on or prior to December 31, 2006. These shares are recorded as issued but not outstanding. The Company will record a charge to its operations based on the fair market value of the shares on the date the performance conditions are met.

NOTE 11 - Employment Agreements

The Company is party to two separate executive employment agreements, one with its Chief Executive Officer and the other with its Chief Operating Officer. The agreements are for five years with two successive renewal options of two years each. The agreements cover various performance and other employment matters and include an annual base salary of $250,000 per individual. Subsequent to December 31, 2004, the Company’s Chief Operating Officer was terminated for reasons other than cause thereby canceling the related employment agreement.

NOTE 12 - Subsequent Events

 

  a. On July 22, 2005, the Company entered into an agreement to purchase 100% of the partnership interests of American Samoa Telecom, LLC (AST). AST is headquartered in Pago Pago, American Samoa and operates under the brand name of Blue Sky Communications. AST is a provider of wireless telephone services in American Samoa via its wireless network. AST is majority owned (approximately 70%) by SVCH. The Company expects to issue a total of 4,225,726 shares of its common stock of which 2,739,008 will be issued to SVCH, AST’s majority interest owner and 1,486,718 to AST’s minority interest owners. Additionally, SVCH and SFG have agreed to forgive all of the debt owed to them by the Company.

On July 22, 2005, the Company executed a merger with Datec Group Ltd, (“Datec”) a New Brunswick, Canada corporation, and its subsidiaries. Datec is a publicly-traded company on the Toronto Stock Exchange. Datec is a provider of information technology and services in Australia, Fiji, New Zealand, Papua New Guinea, Samoa, the Solomon Islands, Tonga, and Vanuatu. In connection with the acquisition of certain operating assets of Datec, the Company expects to issue 4,085,126 shares of common stock. The merger of Datec is subject to the Company consummating the AST acquisition and having SVCH and SFG forgive all outstanding debt owed to them.

Closing of the above-acquisitions is subject to due diligence and stockholder and various regulatory approvals. There can be no assurances that the acquisitions will be consummated.

 

  b. On August 15, 2005, our Board of Directors approved a 9 for 10 reverse stock split of our outstanding shares of common stock. The reverse stock split was effective on September 14, 2005.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

Board Members

AST Telecom, LLC

Pago Pago, American Samoa

We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of AST Telecom, LLC (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2005, and the related statements of income and members’ equity and cash flows for the year then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of AST Telecom, LLC as of December 31, 2005, and the results of its operations, and its cash flows for the year then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying financial statements referred to above have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As of December 31, 2005, the Company had a working capital deficiency of $1,925,122. This factor raises a substantial doubt that the Company will be able to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 - Organization

AST Telecom, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Company”), was organized on July 15, 2002 and registered as a foreign entity with a permit to transact business in the Territory of American Samoa. The Company’s primary business activity is the provision of wireless telephone and internet services and sales of related equipment. The Company’s headquarters are in Nuu’uli, American Samoa.

NOTE 2 - Significant Accounting Policies

Method of Accounting

The financial statements of the Company are prepared using the accrual basis of accounting in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Reclassification

Certain reclassifications have been made to prior year’s financial statements to conform to classifications used in the current year. These reclassifications have no effect on previously recorded net income.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Revised Interpretation No. 46, “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities” (“FIN 46R”), which requires the consolidation of variable interest entities. FIN 46R, as revised, was applicable to financial statements of companies that had interests in “special purpose entities” during 2003. Effective as of the first quarter of 2004, FIN 46R is applicable to financial statements of companies that have interests in all other types of entities. Adoption of FIN 46R had no effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In December 2004, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 123 (revised 2004), “Share-Based Payment” (SFAS 123(R)), which is a revision of SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” (SFAS 123). SFAS 123(R) supersedes Accounting Principle Opinion Board (“APB”) No 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,” and amends SFAS No. 95, “Statement of Cash Flows.” SFAS 123(R) requires all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized at the date of grant in the income statement based on their fair values. Pro forma disclosure is no longer an alternative. SFAS 123(R) is effective at the beginning of the first annual period beginning after December 15, 2005. SFAS 123(R) is not expected to have any impact on the Company’s operations upon adoption, as the Company has no options or warrants issued or outstanding.

NOTE 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, continued

Recent Accounting Pronouncements, continued

In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS 153, “Exchanges of Nonmonetary Assets.” This Statement amends APB No. Opinion 29 to eliminate the exception for nonmonetary exchanges of similar productive assets and replaces it with a general exception for exchanges of nonmonetary assets that do not have commercial substance. A nonmonetary exchange has commercial substance if the future cash flows of the entity are expected to change significantly as a result of the exchange. The provisions of SFAS 153 are effective for nonmonetary asset exchanges occurring in fiscal periods beginning after June 15, 2005. Earlier application is permitted for nonmonetary asset exchanges occurring in fiscal periods beginning after December 16, 2004. The provisions of SFAS 153 should be applied prospectively. The adoption of this pronouncement did not have any effect on the Company’s financial statements.

In June 2005, the FASB issued SFAS 154, “Accounting Changes and Errors Corrections, a replacement of APB Opinion No. 20 and SFAS 3.” SFAS 154 applies to all voluntary changes in accounting principle, and changes the requirements for accounting for and reporting of a change in accounting principle. SFAS 154 requires retrospective application to prior periods’ financial statements of a voluntary change in accounting principle unless it is impractical. APB Opinion No. 20 previously required that most voluntary changes in accounting principle to be recognized by including in net income of the period of the change the cumulative effect of changing to the new accounting principle. SFAS 154 improves the financial reporting because its requirements enhance the consistency of the financial reporting between periods. During the reporting period, the Company did not have any accounting changes or error corrections.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

All highly liquid investments with a maturity of 90 days or less when purchased are considered to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents are stated at cost, which approximates market value.

The Company has cash balances in banks in excess of the maximum amount insured by the FDIC as of December 31, 2005.

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

The Company’s accounts receivables are stated at outstanding principal balance, net of allowance for doubtful accounts. Allowances for doubtful accounts are estimated based on current aging of accounts receivables, prior collection experience and future expectations of conditions that might impact recoverability. The allowance for doubtful accounts amounted to approximately $113,000 and $343,000 at December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively.

Inventory

Inventory composed of cellular phones and related accessories are carried at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost is based on the first-in-first-out method. All expenditures incurred in acquiring inventory including transportation and custom duties are included in inventory.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue when all of the following are present:

 

    Persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists between the Company and its customers;

 

    Delivery has occurred or the services have been rendered;

 

    The price for the service is fixed or determinable; and

 

    Collectibility is reasonably assured.

The Company’s primary source of revenue is the sale of prepaid and postpaid phone cards for its wireless telephone services. Prepaid phone revenue represent phone cards which are paid up front by a subscriber and revenue is recognized as deferred until such time the minutes are used by such subscriber. Postpaid revenue is also recognized as minutes are used, however, it is billed to the subscriber on a monthly basis.

Long distance reverse tolls represent revenue earned by charging an access fee to phone carriers outside of the Company’s network. Such revenue is earned as the network is accessed.

The Company also sells and repairs equipment related to its wireless and internet services such as personal computers and related equipment. Revenue generated from repairs is recognized as the services are rendered. The Company does not usually sell any of its products bundled with any services.

Lastly, the Company is also an internet service provider for which it recognizes revenue on a monthly basis as services are provided.

Revenue generated from servicing and repairing of equipment and from as an internet service provider is included in other income.

Advertising Costs

Advertising costs are expensed as they are incurred. Advertising expense for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 was approximately $214,000 and $63,000, respectively.

Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost and depreciated using the straight line method over their useful lives as follows:

 

Leasehold improvements (shorter of the useful life or the lease term)

   3 to 7 years

Furniture and fixtures

  

7 years

Cellular equipment

  

7 years

Data handling equipment

  

7 years

7 years

Towers and antennas

  

7 years

Office equipment and software

  

3 to 5 years

When property, plant and equipment are retired, or otherwise disposed of, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts, and the resulting gain or loss is credited or charged to operations. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred, while replacements and betterments that extend estimated useful lives are capitalized.

In accordance with SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets” (“SFAS No. 144”), the Company assesses the impairment of property, plant and equipment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying value may not be recoverable. If the Company determines that the carrying value of property, plant and equipment may not be recoverable, we compare the carrying values of our property, plant and equipment to the undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the asset group. If the carrying value exceeds the undiscounted cash flows, an impairment charge may be recorded. An impairment charge is recognized to the extent that the carrying amount of property, plant and equipment is in excess of their determined fair value.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Such estimates and assumptions impact, among others, the amounts of uncollectible accounts receivable. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Fair Values

The Company has determined the estimated fair value amounts presented in these financial statements using available market information and appropriate methodologies. However, considerable judgment is required in interpreting market data to develop the estimates of fair value. The estimates presented in these financial statements are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that the Company could realize in a current market exchange.

NOTE 2 – Significant Accounting Policies, continued

The use of different market assumptions and/or estimation methodologies may have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts. The Company based these fair value estimates on pertinent information available to it as of December 31, 2005 and 2004. As of December 31, 2005 and 2004, the carrying value of all financial instruments approximates fair value.

Income Tax and Income Tax Exemption

As a Limited Liability Company taxed as a partnership, the Company pays no income tax. Taxable income and the resulting tax liability is reported by the members of the Company. There was no difference between tax and financial bases of assets and liabilities.

In addition, the American Samoa Government, effective January 1, 2004, approved a ten year tax exemption for the members of the Company for all income taxes and, for the Company, all excise taxes incurred within the Territory of American Samoa. The exemption is for the purpose of promoting economic activity and employment within the Territory of American Samoa. The Company must meet certain investment requirements for the exemption to continue.

Independent Auditor’s Report

Board of Members

AST Telecom. LLC.

Pago Pago, American Samoa

We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of AST Telecom, LLC, as of December 31, 2003, and the related statements of income, members’ equity, and cash flows for the year ending December 31, 2003. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Out responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatements. An audit includes consideration of internal control on financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of AST Telecom, LLC, as of December 31, 2003, the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2003

Note 1. Organization

AST Telecom, LLC. is a Delaware limited liability company, organized on July 15, 2002 and registered as a foreign entity with a permit to transact business in the Territory of American Samoa. The Company’s primary business activity is the provision of wireless telephone and internet services and sales of related items. Company headquarters are in Tafuna, American Samoa. On February 14, 2003, the Company began operations by purchasing the assets and assuming certain liabilities of American Samoa Telecom, LLC.

Note 2. Significant Accounting Policies

Method of Accounting

The financial statements of the Company are prepared using the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles.

Reclassification

Certain reclassifications have been made to the financial statements to conform to classifications used in subsequent years. These reclassifications have no effect on previously recorded net income.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

There are no recent accounting pronouncements that would have a significant impact on the Company’s results of operations or financial position.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

All highly liquid investments with a maturity of 90 days or less when purchased are considered to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents are stated at cost, which approximates market value.

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

The Company’s accounts receivables are stated at outstanding principal balance, net of allowance for doubtful accounts. Allowances for doubtful accounts are estimated based on current aging of accounts receivables, prior collection experience and future expectations of conditions that might impact recoverability. The allowance for doubtful accounts amounted to $146,210 at December 31, 2003.

Inventories

Inventories are carried at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost is based on the the first-in-first-out principle. All expenditures incurred in acquiring the inventories including transportation and custom duties are included in inventory.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue when all of the following are present:

 

    Persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists between the Company and its customers;

 

    Delivery has occurred or the services have been rendered;

 

    The price for the service is fixed or determinable; and

 

    Collectibility is reasonably assured.

The Company’s primary source of revenue is the sale of prepaid phone cards for its wireless telephone services. When the phone cards are initially sold, revenue is recognized as deferred until such time the minutes are used. The Company is also an internet service provider for which it recognizes revenue on a monthly basis as services are provided.

Lastly, the Company sells and repairs equipment related to its wireless and internet services such as personal computers and related equipment.

Foreign Currency

Unless otherwise stated, all amounts are expressed in US dollars. Transactions in foreign currencies have been converted to US dollars at rates approximating those at the dates of the transactions. Exchange gains and losses are brought into the accounts in determining the profit for the year.

Operating Lease

Leases where a significant portion of the risks and rewards of ownership are not retained by AST Telecom, LLC are classified as operating leases. Payments made under operating leases are charged to the income statement on a straight-line basis over the period of the lease.

The Company has entered into lease agreements for several locations in American Samoa for cell towers, satellite and networking site, and sales and administrative offices with lease terms of one to thirty years. Note 10 shows the future commitments of the lease obligations.

Property, Plant and Equipment

Fixed assets are stated at cost and depreciated using the straight-line method over their useful lives as follows:

 

Leasehold lmprovements (life of initial lease term)

   3 to 7 years

Furniture & Fixtures

   7 years

Cellular Equipment

   7 years

Data Handling Equipment

   7 years

Microwave Equipment

   7 years

Towers & Antennas

   7 years

Office Equipment & Software

   3 to 5 years

Switch Hardware & Software and others

   5 to 7 years

When property, plant and equipment are retired, or otherwise disposed of, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts, and the resulting gain or loss is credited or charged to operations. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred, while replacements and betterments that extend estimated useful lives are capitalized.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Such estimates and assumptions impact, among others, the amounts of uncollectible accounts receivable. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Fair Values

The Company has determined the estimated fair value amounts presented in these financial statements using available market information and appropriate methodologies. However, considerable judgment is required in interpreting market data to develop the estimates of fair value. The estimates presented in these financial statements are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that the Company could realize in a current market exchange. The use of different market assumptions and/or estimation methodologies may have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts. The Company based these fair value estimates on pertinent information available to it as of December 31, 2003. As of December 31, 2003, the carrying value of all financial instruments approximates fair value.

Comprehensive Income

The Company had no comprehensive income components for the year ended December 31, 2003. Therefore, comprehensive income is the same as net income.

Income Tax and Income Tax Exemption

As a Limited Liability Company taxed as a partnership, the Company pays no income tax. Taxable income and the resulting tax liability is reported by the members of the Company. There was no difference between tax and financial bases of assets and liabilities.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors of

Datec Group Ltd.

We have audited the accompanying combined balance sheet of Datec Group Ltd. Subsidiaries to be acquired by Elandia, Inc. (the “Company”) as listed in Note 3 of these combined financial statements as of December 31, 2005, and the related combined statements of operations, shareholders’ equity and cash flows for the year then ended. These combined financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these combined financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the combined financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the combined financial position of Datec Group Ltd. Subsidiaries to be acquired by Elandia, Inc. as of December 31, 2005, and the results of its combined operations, and its combined cash flows for the year then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

F-108


Table of Contents

The accompanying combined financial statements referred to above have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company incurred a net loss of $8,143,745 for the year ended December 31, 2005 and had a working capital deficiency of $613,973. These factors raise substantial doubt that the Company will be able to continue as a going concern. Management plans are also described in Note 2. The combined financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

As discussed in Note 1, the 2005 combined financial statements have been presented on a combined basis whereas in prior years they have been presented on a consolidated basis. Accordingly, there has been a change in reporting entity since these combined financial statements do not include the Company’s parent.

NOTE 1- Basis of Presentation

General

Datec Group Ltd. Subsidiaries to be acquired by Elandia, Inc. (the “Company”) conducts operations in the South Pacific focusing on the marketing and distribution of information technology products, software and services. The Company principally operates through divisions as follows:

 

    Distribution and sale of computer and telecommunications hardware and software;

 

    The hosting of client hardware and software services including providing of technical support and services for the technology industry;

 

    Software application design and development; and

 

    Provision of professional consulting services.

The combined financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The Company’s previous financial statements were prepared in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles. The differences between United States and Canadian accounting principles were not material.

The Company had reported as a consolidated entity with its parent company in the prior years. The current year financial statements have been prepared on a combined basis without the parent company. The parent company is a holding company with no material operations other than corporate overhead costs, which were entirely allocated to the Company. Reconciliation to prior year’s statement of shareholder’s equity has been provided in the combined statement of shareholders’ equity. The combined statements of shareholders’ equity reflects the removal of the parent company’s net assets at December 31, 2004 amounting to $5,775,828, which is primarily composed of due from subsidiaries.

Effective February 1, 2006, pursuant to a Plan of Arrangement (Plan of Arrangement) with Elandia, Inc. (“Elandia”), the Company was acquired by Elandia and accordingly, it became a wholly-owned subsidiary.

NOTE 2 - Going Concern

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern. The Company has incurred a net loss of $8,143,745 for the year ended December 31, 2005 and has a working capital deficiency of $613,973. These factors raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern.

The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

NOTE 3 - Significant Accounting Policies

Revenue Recognition

The Company generates a majority of its revenue by providing comprehensive information technology services and related products to large corporate organizations such as financial institutions, government agencies, resorts and the like. The Company provides a substantial portion of these services and products as an authorized re-seller. Included in products revenue is also the Company’s retail stores located in Fiji and Papua New Guinea, which operate under the name Datec. The Company’s revenue can be generally segregated as follows:

 

    Off-the-shelf software and hardware products

 

    Software maintenance and information technology support services

 

    Software development and systems integration services

 

    Data services

 

  a. Off-The-Shelf Software and Hardware Products

Revenue from the sale of products are recorded when the products are shipped. Product sales are comprised of hardware and off-the-shelf software such as Microsoft Products, Oracle, ACCPAC, Etc.

In accordance with the provisions of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountant’s Statement of Position 97-2 “Software Revenue Recognition,” as amended by SOP 98-9 “Software Revenue Recognition with Respect to Certain Arrangements” revenue from software license sales is recognized once delivery has occurred, evidence of an arrangement exists, the fee is fixed and determined and collection of the fee is probable, provided there are no significant vendor obligations remaining. For multiple element arrangements, where Vendor Specific Objective Evidence (“VSOE”) of fair value is available for all elements, the contract value is allocated to each element proportionately based upon relative VSOE of fair value and revenue is recognized separately for each element. Where VSOE of fair value is available for all undelivered elements, the residual method is used to value the delivered elements. Where VSOE of fair value is not available for all undeliverable element all revenue for the arrangement is deferred until the earlier of the point at which VSOE does exist or all elements of the arrangement have been delivered.

Revenue is recognized over the period of each implementation using the percentage-of-completion method. Labor hours incurred is used as the measure of progress towards completion, and management believes its estimates to completion are reasonably dependable. Management regularly reviews underlying estimates of project profitability. Revisions to estimates are reflected in the Statement of Operations in the period in which the facts that give rise to the revision become known. Provisions for estimated losses, if any, are recognized in the period in which the loss is determined.

NOTE 3 - Significant Accounting Policies, continued

Basis of Combination, continued

In accordance with Financial Accounting Standard Board (“FASB”) Interpretation No. 46(R), “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities” (“FIN 46R”), as revised, the Company combines entities which lack characteristics of an operating entity or business for which the Company is the primary beneficiary. Under FIN 46R, the primary beneficiary is the party that absorbs a majority of the entity’s expected losses, receives a majority of its expected residual returns, or both, as a result of holding variable interests, direct or implied.

The Company holds 50% interest in Datec Papua New Guinea Limited (“Datec Papua”) for which it has significant management influence over the entity and guarantees a portion of their debt. Datec Papua provides technology products, internet access services and professional services to large corporate organizations. Datec Papua has an overdraft facility account with a maximum borrowing limit of $1,900,000 dollars. This overdraft facility account is secured by the directors of Generic Technology Group Limited. Accordingly, the Company is expected to absorb a majority of the expected losses and therefore it has been combined under the FIN 46R model.

For the year ended December 31, 2005, Datec Papua comprised of the following amounts:

 

Revenues

   $ 30,841,509

Net income

     2,218,582

Total assets

     18,606,932

Total liabilities

NOTE 3 - Significant Accounting Policies, continued

Goodwill

Goodwill, which represents the excess of acquisition cost over the fair value of net assets of acquired companies, has not been amortized since the Company adopted SFAS 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets,” on January 1, 2002. The goodwill balance of each reporting unit, as defined by SFAS 142 is evaluated for potential impairment at the end of the year or when events occur or circumstances change that could cause the balance to be impaired. Reporting units for purposes of this test are identical to our operating segments (grouped by geographical region), which are further discussed in Note 11. The evaluation of impairment involves comparing the current fair value of the reporting unit to the recorded value, including goodwill. In step one, if the carrying value amount of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value, the step two analysis is prepared to compare the implied value of goodwill to its carrying value. We utilize earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) multiples to determine the fair value of the business. Based on the evaluation performed for the year ended December 31, 2005, it was determined that the goodwill under the reporting unit of Fiji and Pacific Islands was impaired in the amount of $4,370,151.

Software Development Costs

Capitalization of software development costs begins upon the establishment of technological feasibility. Technological feasibility for the Company’s computer products is generally based upon achievement of a detail program design free of high risk development issues and the completion of research and development on the product hardware in which it is to be used. The establishment of technological feasibility and the ongoing assessment of recoverability of capitalized computer software development costs require considerable judgment by management with respect to certain external factors, including, but not limited to, technological feasibility, anticipated future gross revenue, estimated economic life and changes in software and hardware technology.

Amortization of capitalized software development costs commences when the related products become available for general release to customers. Amortization is provided on a product by product basis over the shorter of the useful life or three (3) years. The amortization expense for the year ended December 31, 2005 is $357,648 and it’s included in cost of goods sold.

Deferred Income Taxes

Deferred income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Under this method, future 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 bases. Future tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply when the asset is realized or the liability settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in operations in the period that enactment occurs.

NOTE 3 - Significant Accounting Policies, continued

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash on hand and balances with banks and investments in money market instruments. For the purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all short term investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents included in the cash flow statement are comprised solely of balances with banks.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Fair Values

The fair values of the Company’s cash accounts, accounts receivable, other receivables, tax receivables, bank indebtedness and accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate the carrying values given their short-term nature.

Advertising Costs

Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising costs amounted to $106,441 for the year ended December 31, 2005 and are included in other operating expenses.

Accounts Receivable

The Company’s accounts receivable are stated at outstanding principal balance, net of allowance for doubtful accounts. Allowances for doubtful accounts are estimated based on the current aging of accounts receivables, prior collection experience and future expectations of conditions that might impact recoverability. The allowance for doubtful accounts amounted to $799,867 at December 31, 2005.

Foreign Currency Translation

Financial statements of the Company’s foreign divisions are valued in foreign currencies, referred to as the functional currency. Under SFAS No. 52, “Foreign Currency Translation” functional currency assets and liabilities are translated into the reporting currency, Canadian dollars, using period end rates of exchange and the related translation adjustments are recorded as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income. Functional statement of operations amounts expressed in functional currencies are translated using average exchange rates. Gains and losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are recorded in net realized gains (losses).

Recent Accounting Pronouncement

In June 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes,” an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes” (FIN 48), which clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes. FIN 48 prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The Interpretation requires that the Company recognize in the financial statements the impact of a tax position, if that position is more likely than not of being sustained on audit, based on the technical merits of the position. FIN 48 also provides a guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods and disclosure. The provisions of FIN 48 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006 with the cumulative effect of the change in accounting principle recorded as an adjustment to opening retained earnings. The Company has not yet evaluated whether this Statement is expected to have a material impact on the Company’s combined financial position or results of operations.

Bank Overdraft

The Company has amounts overdrawn with various banks in the amount of $623,902.

The bank overdraft incurs interest at rates ranging from 6.70% to 14.75%. It is a revolving facility with no fixed repayment date, no expiration date and is secured by the following:

 

    equitable mortgage over the assets and liabilities of Datec Fiji Limited and Datec Papua New Guinea Limited;

 

    unlimited Company guarantee by Generic Technology Group Limited;

 

    unlimited joint and several debt and interest guarantee by the Directors of Generic Technology Group Limited;

The maximum overdraft available to the Company is $3,000,000.

NOTE 7 - Income Taxes

The components of the income tax provisions are as follows:

Deferred portion of provision

     (260,535 )
        
   $ 1,975,454  
        

The Company operates in different countries and therefore it does not file consolidated tax returns. Accordingly, the net operating losses of certain entities cannot offset profits in different jurisdictions. Having global operations, the Company is required to calculate and provide for income taxes in each of the numerous jurisdictions where it operates. This involves making judgments regarding the recoverability of deferred tax assets which can affect the overall effective tax rate. In addition, changes in the geographic mix or estimated level of pre-tax income can affect the overall effective tax rate.

NOTE 7 - Income Taxes, continued

The tax effects of temporary differences that give rise to significant portions of the deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities at December 31, 2005 are presented below.

 

Deferred tax assets:

  

Accounts receivable principally due to allowance for doubtful accounts

   $ 249,792  

Inventories, principally due to write-downs not currently deductible

     271,665  

Compensated absences, principally due to accrual for financial reporting purposes

     235,445  

Other

     89,529  

Net operating losses available for future use (subject to possible limitations based on change of control)

     1,421,985  
        
     2,268,416  

Less valuation allowance related to net operating losses

     (1,421,985 )
        

Deferred tax assets

   $ 846,431  
        

Deferred tax liabilities:

  

Property, plant and equipment due to differences in Depreciation

   $ 52,906  
        

Deferred tax liabilities

   $ 52,906  
        

In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible.

Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected deferred taxable income, and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. In order to fully realize the deferred tax asset, the Company will need to generate future taxable income. Based upon the level of historical taxable income and projections for future taxable income over the periods that the deferred tax assets are deductible, management believes it is more than not likely the Company will realize the benefits of these deductible assets.

NOTE 9 - Related Party Transactions

During the year ended December 31, 2005, interest paid to related parties amounted to $32,346.

As of December 31, 2005, the combined entities owed Datec, the parent company, $7,494,752. Such amount was a non interest bearing loan and the amount was due on demand. These transactions were in the normal course of operations and were measured at the exchange amount, which was the amount of consideration established and agreed to between the related parties. Such amount was contributed to shareholders’ equity subsequent to year end in connection with the sale of the Company to Elandia (Note 14).

During March 2005, one of the combining entities sold its building for approximately $2,000,000 to Kelton Investments Ltd. (“Kelton”) (an entity controlled by a director of the Company). The purchase price paid by Kelton approximated market value of the property. The Company’s Acting Chief Executive Officer and Chief Operating Officer are related to the director and controlling stockholder of Kelton. Simultaneously with the sale of the building to Kelton, the Company entered into a lease agreement with Kelton to rent such building for a period of three years with certain renewal options. (See Notes 10 and 13).

For the year ended December 31, 2005, the Company’s parent, provided certain corporate and administrative services to the Company, particularly in the area of director’s fees and other regulatory related expenses associated with the Company’s listing and trading on the Toronto Stock Exchange. For the year ended December 31, 2005, Datec allocated $991,769 of corporate related expenses to the Company. In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS 123(R), “Share-Based Payment,” to expand and clarify SFAS 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” in several areas. SFAS 123(R) requires companies to measure the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of any equity instrument based on the grant-date fair value of the award. The cost is recognized over the requisite service period (usually the vesting period) for the estimated number of instruments where service is expected to be rendered. SFAS 123(R) was adopted in the first quarter of fiscal 2006. The Company’s parent, Datec, began expensing stock-based compensation using the fair value based method of accounting as permitted under SFAS 123 on January 1, 2005. For the year ended December 31, 2005, Datec expensed options granted to directors for services received amounting to approximately $100,000. The weighted average fair value, as defined by SFAS No. 123, of options granted during 2005 was calculated using the Black-Scholes option valuation model.

Foreign Currency

The Company uses a very limited number of forward exchange contracts and currency options to hedge purchases of inventory in foreign currencies. The Company’s exchange rate commitments are intended to minimize the exposure to exchange rate movement risk on the cost of the Company’s products and on the price it is able to sell those products to its customers. The Company does not use foreign exchange instruments for trading or any other purpose.

No forward exchange contracts were entered into during the year ended December 31, 2005.

Interest Rate Risk

The Company has adopted a policy of ensuring that its exposure to changes in interest rates is on a fixed rate basis. The Company does not hedge against interest rate fluctuations.

AUDITORS’ REPORT

  

March 30, 2005 (except as to Note 20 which is as of January 30, 2006

and except as to Note 21 which is as of August 10, 2006)

Edmonton, Alberta, Canada

To the shareholders of Datec Group Ltd.:

We have audited the consolidated balance sheets of Datec Group Ltd. as at December 31, 2004 and 2003 and the consolidated statements of earnings (loss), deficit, and cash flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform an audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.

In our opinion, these consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as at December 31, 2004 and 2003 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles.

Comments by Auditors for U.S readers on Canadian – U.S. Reporting Differences

In the United States, reporting standards for auditors require the addition of an explanatory paragraph when the consolidated financial statements are affected by conditions and events that cast substantial doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, such as those described in note 2 to the consolidated financial statements. Our report to the shareholders dated March 30, 2005, except for note 20 which is as of January 30, 2006, is expressed in accordance with Canadian reporting standards, which do not permit a reference to such events and conditions in the auditors’ report when these are adequately disclosed in the financial statements.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2004

AND THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2003

 

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

General

Datec Group Ltd., (the Company), was incorporated under the Business Corporations Act (Alberta) on November 25, 1993, and obtained its listing on the Alberta Stock Exchange on April 14, 1994. The Company changed its name from Brocker Technology Limited to Datec Group Ltd. during 2003.

On February 28, 1998, the Company transferred its listing to the Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX).

The Company has operations in the South Pacific focussed on the marketing and distribution of information technology products, software and services. The Company principally operates in four industry segments, being the divisions by which the Company is managed, as follows:

 

    Distribution and sale of computer and telecommunications hardware and software;

 

    The hosting of client hardware and software services including the provision of technical support and services for the Technology Industry;

 

    Software application design and development; and

 

    Provision of professional consulting services.

These financial statements are presented in Canadian dollars and have been prepared by management in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles. Differences between Canadian and United States accounting principles are described in Note 20.

 

2. GOING CONCERN

While the financial statements have been prepared on the basis of accounting principles applicable to a going concern, several conditions and events cast substantial doubt upon the validity of this assumption. The Company incurred significant operating losses in the current fiscal year and in 2000 and 2001. Although the company achieved profitable operations in 2002 and 2003, it is still in a significant deficit position. If the going concern assumption were not appropriate for these financial statements, then adjustments would be necessary in the carrying values of assets and liabilities, the reported net earnings and the balance sheet classifications used.

FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2004

AND THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2003

 

3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

  a) Revenue recognition

The Company generates revenue principally through the provision of IT Services. The IT Services comprise the following:

 

    Sale of product and services

 

    Outsourcing

 

    Maintenance

 

    Systems integration

Revenue from the sale of products is recorded when the products are shipped or services rendered. Product sales are represented by hardware and software.

Revenue from software products is recognized in accordance with the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants Statement of Position (SOP) No. 97-2, “Software Revenue Recognition”. Fees from software products are recognized as revenue upon shipment, provided the fees are fixed and determinable and collection is probable. Fees from software products sold together with consulting services are generally recognized upon shipment provided that the above criteria have been met, payment of the license fee is not dependent upon the performance of the consulting services and the consulting services are not essential to the functionality of the licensed software.

Service revenue relating to outsourcing arrangements is recognized on a monthly basis over the term of the contract. Revenue from time and materials is recognized as the services are provided.

Revenue from maintenance services is recognized on a monthly basis over the term of the contract. Revenue billed in advance is recorded as deferred revenue and recognized on a monthly basis over the term of the contract.

Service revenue related to systems integration under time and material contracts is recognized as services are rendered. For certain contracts which involve significant implementation or other services which are essential to the functionality of the software and which are reasonably estimable, the license and implementation services revenue is recognized using contract accounting, as prescribed by SOP 81-1, Accounting for Performance of Construction-Type and Certain Production-Type Contracts. Revenue is recognized over the period of each implementation using the percentage-of-completion method. Labour hours incurred is used as the measure of progress towards completion, and management believes its estimates to completion are reasonably dependable. A provision for estimated losses on engagements is made in the period in which the losses become probable and can be reasonably estimated. Management regularly reviews underlying estimates of project profitability. Revisions to estimates are reflected in the Statement of Earnings in the period in which the facts that give rise to the revision become known. Provisions for estimated losses, if any, are recognized in the period in which the loss is determined. Contract losses are measured as the amount by which the estimated costs of the contract exceed the estimated total revenue from the contract.

Reimbursements, including those relating to travel and other out-of-pocket expenses, and other similar third party costs are included in revenue and the corresponding expense included in cost of sales.

The Company recognises a provision for warranties at the time the underlying products are sold. The provision is based on historical warranty data. Certain products sold are backed by manufacturers warranties in which case no provision is made.

The Company’s equipment is sometimes sold with other elements, such as installation and training, included in the overall purchase price. Each element has a separate price book amount.

AND THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2003

 

In situations where there are multiple elements included in the overall sale price, the Company recognizes revenue equal to the fair value of the equipment at the time of shipment, which is when the elements meet the following criteria as specified in Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 00-21, “Accounting for Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables.”

 

    The equipment the Company sells has value on a stand-alone basis. The Company’s customers may resell equipment on a stand-alone basis and there is an observable market for the equipment. The Company also may sell the equipment without installation and training. In these cases, the overall purchase price is lower by an amount equal to the fair value of the installation and training.

 

    There is objective and reliable evidence of the fair value of the installation and training elements. The Company calculates the fair value of these elements based on the same, or similar, installation and training services provided to customers on a stand-alone basis.

 

    There are no general rights of return relating to the equipment. The Company has no obligation to accept the return of products sold other than for repair or replacement of defective products, which must be authorized in advance.

All revenue is recognized net of discounts and allowances.

 

  b) Basis of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements follow the Statement on Financial Accounting Standards, issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board in the United States, SFAS 141, Business Combinations, and SFAS 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. SFAS 141 specifies the types of acquired intangible assets that are required to be recognized and reported separately from goodwill. Under SFAS 142, goodwill and other tangible assets are not amortized but are tested for impairment at least annually.

  e) Goodwill

The Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement on Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.” The Company follows SFAS 142 to account for goodwill. Under SFAS 142 goodwill is initially recognised and carried at cost. Goodwill is not amortized, but is reviewed annually for impairment, using undiscounted cash flows to estimate future cash flows, or when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the asset may not be recoverable. When such review indicates that the estimated future cash flows or benefits associated with these assets would not be sufficient to recover their carrying value, the excess of carrying value over fair value will be recognised as an impairment loss and charged to expense in the period that impairment has been determined. The Company completed its impairment testing of goodwill which indicated that the fair value of goodwill exceeded its carrying value and did not require an adjustment.

 

  f) Research and development expenditures

Research costs, other than capital expenditures, are expensed as incurred. Development costs are expensed as incurred unless they meet the criteria under generally accepted accounting principles for deferral and amortization. Deferred development costs are amortized over the expected life of the developed product, currently a maximum of three years. Amortization commences upon commercial production of the product or process.

 

  g) Future income taxes

Future income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Under this method, future 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 bases. Future tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted or substantively enacted tax rates expected to apply when the asset is realized or the liability settled. The effect on future tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that substantive enactment occurs.

Withholding taxes payable on repatriation of earnings of foreign operations are not provided, as it is not expected that those earnings will be repatriated in the foreseeable future.

 

  h) Earnings per share

Basic earnings per common share are calculated using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year. Interest, carrying costs, and accretion charges associated with convertible debentures are deducted from net earnings for the purpose of calculating earnings per share available to common shareholders.

Diluted earnings per share is calculated on the basis of the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period, plus the additional common shares that would have been outstanding if potentially dilutive common shares issuable under stock options and warrants had been issued using the treasury stock method. The calculation of diluted earnings per share also applies the “if converted” method for convertible debentures, which assumes conversion into common shares outstanding since the beginning of the period.

  i) Stock-based compensation

Effective January 1, 2004 the Company prospectively adopted the new standard with respect to accounting for stock based compensation arrangements relating to stock options granted to employees and directors. Stock options granted to employees and directors on or after January 1, 2004 are accounted for using the fair value method. Under this method, compensation expense related to these programs is recorded in the statement of loss and deficit with a corresponding increase to contributed surplus. The fair value of options granted are determined at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes valuation model.

Options granted to employees and directors after December 31, 2001 and prior to January 1, 2004 are accounted for using the intrinsic value method whereby the excess of the stock price on the date of grant over the exercise price of the option is recorded as compensation expense. For options granted where the stock price does not exceed the exercise price at the date of the grant, the company was required to disclose pro forma net income and earnings per share information as if the fair value method had been used.

Options granted to non-employees on or after January 1, 2003 are accounted for using the fair value method.

Consideration paid on the exercise of stock options is credited to share capital, along with the fair value of the options originally recorded to contributed surplus. The Company does not incorporate an estimated forfeiture rate for stock options that will not vest, but accounts for forfeitures as they occur.

 

  j) Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash on hand and balances with banks, short term bank indebtedness and investments in money market instruments. Cash and cash equivalents included in the cash flow statement are comprised solely of balances with banks.

 

  k) Leases

Leases are classified as capital or operating leases. A lease that transfers substantially all of the benefits and risks incidental to the ownership of property is classified as a capital lease. All other leases are accounted for as operating leases, wherein rental payments are expensed as incurred.

 

  l) Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Estimates have been used when accounting for items such as revenue recognition, allowances for uncollectible accounts receivable and inventory obsolescence, product warranty provisions, impairment assessments, deferred product development costs, amortization rates, stock-based compensation and contingencies and commitments.

 

  m) Statement of cash flow

The Company is using the direct method in its presentation of the statement of cash flow.

 

  n) Foreign currency translation

Revenue and expense transactions denominated in foreign currencies are translated into Canadian dollars at the average exchange rates in effect at the time of such transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities are translated at current rates at the balance sheet date. Gains or losses resulting from these translation adjustments are included in other income.

The operations of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries are considered to be self-sustaining foreign operations and accordingly, are converted to Canadian dollars using the current method. Under this method, foreign exchange gains and losses arising from the translation of the foreign subsidiaries’ accounts into Canadian dollars are deferred and reported as cumulative foreign currency translation adjustment as a separate component of shareholders’ equity. Upon the disposal of a self-sustaining subsidiary, any unrealized gains or losses relating to this subsidiary are included in income in the period of disposal.

These warrants were conditional upon regulatory and shareholder approval. These approvals were not obtained in 2004 and, accordingly, these warrants have been cancelled.

 

  (5) The Company issued 264,000 warrants in connection with convertible loans in 2002. These warrants have an exercise price of $0.375 per common share and an expiry date of January 21, 2006.

  (iii) Shares to be issued

At December 31, 2003, there were 750,000 shares in Datec Group Ltd. and 293,003 shares in Datec New Zealand Limited due to be issued in relation to the purchase of Certus Consulting Note 4(c). These shares were valued at $0.375 and $0.85 respectively, for an aggregate value of $520,463. This share value was a component of the purchase price equation and recorded as share capital. The shares were not initially issued at the time of the acquisition pending the negotiation and resolution of various post-closing matters, some of which never were successfully resolved. Accordingly, as these shares had not been issued by the time that Certus Consulting was sold in 2004 (refer Note 4(b)), they were cancelled as part of the sale process. As at December 31, 2004, no future obligation remains with respect to these shares.

The Company has recorded stock based compensation in the amount of $175,000 (2003 – nil) with respect to the 350,000 (2003 – 375,000) stock options granted during the year as an expense in the statement of loss and deficit and an increase to contributed surplus. Compensation expense has been determined based on the fair value of the options at the grant date and does not include any options issued prior to January 1, 2004. The fair value of $0.50 per stock option is estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions:

 

Dividend rate

   0 %

Annualized volatility

   117.42 %

Risk-free rate

   4.67 %

Expected life of options in years

   5.0  

With respect to the previous fiscal year, pro forma net earnings and earnings per share reflecting the impact of stock-based compensation using the fair value method arising from options granted to directors and employees during 2003, is not required as the fair value was determined to be not material. For pro forma disclosure purposes, the Company used the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to value the options at each grant date, under the following weighted average assumptions:

 

Dividend rate

   0 %

Annualized volatility

   121.33 %

Risk-free interest rate

   4.82 %

Expected life of options in years

   2.1  

The compensation expense recorded in the current year and the pro forma amount disclosed for the previous year, according to the Black-Scholes option pricing model, may not be indicative of the actual values realized upon the exercise of these options by the holders.

In assessing the realizability of future tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the future tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of future tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible.

Management considers the scheduled reversal of future tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. In order to fully realize the future tax asset, the Company will need to generate future taxable income. Based upon the level of historical taxable income and projections for future taxable income over the periods that the future tax assets are deductible, management believes it is more than not likely the Company will realize the benefits of these deductible assets. The amount of the future tax asset considered realizable has been reduced to reflect this change in classification. The majority of these tax losses relate to the Company’s Fiji subsidiaries and are not transferable to other companies within the group.

14. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The nature of activities and management policies with respect to financial instruments are as follows:

 

  a) Foreign currency

The Company uses a very limited number of forward exchange contracts and currency options to hedge purchases of inventory in foreign currencies. The Company’s exchange rate commitments are intended to minimise the exposure to exchange rate movement risk on the cost of the Company’s products and on the price it is able to sell those products to its customers. The Company does not use foreign exchange instruments for trading or any other purpose.

No forward exchange contracts were entered into during the year ended December 31, 2004 or the year ended December 31, 2003.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2004

AND THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2003

 

  b) Concentration of credit risk

In the normal course of business, the Company incurs credit risk from accounts receivable and transactions with financial institutions. The Company has a credit policy, which is used to manage the risk. As part of this policy, limits on exposure with counterparties have been set and are monitored on a regular basis. Anticipated bad debt losses have been provided for in the allowance for doubtful accounts.

The Company has no significant concentrations of credit risk. The Company does not consider that it requires any collateral or security to support financial instruments due to the quality of financial institutions and trade debtors.

 

  c) Interest rate risk

The Company has adopted a policy of ensuring that its exposure to changes in interest rates is on a fixed rate basis. The Company does not hedge against interest rate fluctuations.

 

  d) Fair values

The fair values of the Company’s cash accounts, accounts receivable and other receivables, bank, indebtedness, accounts payable, accrued liabilities and lease obligations approximate the carrying values given their short-term nature. The carrying value of the debenture, capital leases and other long term debts, as disclosed in note 7, also approximate their fair value.

 

15. COMMITMENTS

There were no material or unusual commitments at December 31, 2004.

 

16. CONTINGENCIES

There were no material or unusual contingent liabilities or guarantees at December 31, 2004.

On December 21, 2001 the Company was awarded $101,495 plus interest and costs from Jonathan Hugh Barker relating to Acquisitions of Easy PC Computer Rentals Limited. These funds have not yet been received and therefore no income has been recognised in the period.

 

17. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 

  a) In January 2005 the Company closed a private placement financing of 115,000 units at a price of $0.60 per unit for total proceeds of $69,000. Each unit represents one common share and one warrant. Each warrant entitles the holder to purchase one additional common share at a price of $1.00 per share for a period of two years.

 

  b) In March 2005, the Company agreed to dispose of several properties for proceeds of approximately $2,000,000, resulting in a gain on sale of approximately $300,000. The properties are being sold to a company controlled by a director and officer with the sale price supported by appraised values. Certain of these properties are to be leased back from the purchaser.

20. RECONCILIATION OF GENERALLY ACCEPTED ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES

These consolidated financial statements of the company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in Canada, which conform in all material respects with United States generally accepted accounting principles.

Under United States securities requirements, the Company is required to provide a reconciliation setting out differences between accounting principles generally accepted in Canada and the United States.

Based upon the standards in effect during the periods ended December 31, 2004 and December 31, 2003, there were no material differences between the Company’s consolidated financial statements as prepared under Canadian and United States generally accepted accounting principles for the years ended December 31, 2004 and December 31, 2003.

Comprehensive income or loss

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130 (SFAS 130), “Reporting Comprehensive Income”, establishes standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income or loss and its components in the financial statements. Under U.S. GAAP, there are no other material components of comprehensive income for 2003 and 2004 other than net income or loss as reported.

Recently issued accounting standards

The following standards were recently issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board:

SFAS No. 151 - “Inventory Costs, an Amendment of ARB No. 43, Chapter 4.” SFAS No. 151 retains the general principle of ARB No. 43, Chapter 4, “Inventory Pricing,” that inventories are presumed to be stated at cost; however, it amends ARB No. 43 to clarify that abnormal amounts of idle facilities, freight, handling costs and spoilage should be recognized as current period expenses. Also, SFAS No. 151 requires fixed overhead costs be allocated to inventories based on normal production capacity. The guidance in SAFS No. 151 is effective for inventory costs incurred during fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005.

SFAS 123 (Revised) - “Share Based Payment,” which will require the Company to measure the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant-date fair value of the award. That cost will be recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award—the requisite service period. No compensation cost is recognized for equity instruments for which employees do not render the requisite service. The grant-date fair value of employee share options and similar instruments will be estimated using option-pricing models adjusted for the unique characteristics of those instruments. SFAS No. 123 (Revised) eliminates the use of APB Opinion No. 25. SFAS No. 123 (Revised) is effective for the first interim or annual reporting period that begins after December 15, 2005. Early adoption for interim or annual periods for which financial statements or interim reports have not been issued is encouraged.

SFAS 152 - In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 152 “Accounting for Real Estate TimeSharing Transactions - an amendment of FASB Statements No. 66 and 67” (“SFAS 152”). This statement amends FASB Statement No. 66 “Accounting for Sales of Real Estate” to reference the financial accounting and reporting guidance for real estate time-sharing transactions that is provided in AICPA Statement of Position 04-2 “Accounting for Real Estate Time-Sharing Transactions” (“SOP 04-2”). SFAS 152 also amends FASB Statement No. 67 “Accounting for Costs and Initial Rental Operations of Real Estate Projects” to state that the guidance for incidental operations and costs incurred to sell real estate projects does not apply to real estate time-sharing transactions, with the accounting for those operations and costs being subject to the guidance in SOP 04-2. The provisions of SFAS 152 are effective in fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005.

SFAS 153 - In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 153 “Exchanges of Non-monetary Assets - an amendment of APB Opinion No. 29” (“SFAS 153”). SFAS 153 replaces the exception from fair value measurement in APB Opinion No. 29 for non-monetary exchanges of similar productive assets with a general exception from fair value measurement for exchanges of non-monetary assets that do not have commercial substance. A non-monetary exchange has commercial substance if the future cash flows of the entity are expected to change significantly as a result of the exchange. SFAS 153 is effective for all interim periods beginning after June 15, 2005.

SFAS 154- In May 2005, the FASB issued SFAS 154 “Accounting Changes and Error Corrections”. The statement replaces APB Opinion No. 20, Accounting Changes and SFAS No. 3, Reporting Accounting Changes in Interim Financial Statements. SFAS 154 requires companies to apply voluntary changes in principles retrospectively whenever practicable. SFAS 154 is effective for accounting changes and correction of errors made in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005.

The company believes that the above standards would not have a material impact on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows as it relates to the reconciliation of Canadian and United States accounting policy differences.

Country Description

American Samoa

History and Politics

Settled as early as 1000 B.C., and later occupied by European explorers in the 18th century, the territory of American Samoa (“American Samoa”) developed as a result of many international rivalries, finally resolved by a treaty in 1899 between the United States, Great Britain, and Germany, dividing the archipelago, and granting the United States of America control of all Samoan islands east of 171°W. The United States of America began to formally occupy American Samoa in 1900.

American Samoa remained under the jurisdiction of the U.S. Navy Department until 1951, when administration was transferred to the Department of the Interior and a governor was appointed. In 1978, the first popularly elected Samoan governor was inaugurated. The government of American Samoa is comprised of a bicameral legislature, consisting of a Senate and a House of Representative, and an independent judicial branch, consisting of a High Court. The Chief Justice and Associate Justices are appointed by the U.S. Secretary of Interior. America Samoa is represented in the United States Congress by one non-voting delegate. Togiola Tulafona is the current governor of American Samoa.

The Land

American Samoa comprises the eastern half of the Samoan island chain in the South Pacific. The group consists of several major islands: Tutuila, the Manu’a group (Ta’u, Ofu, and Olosega), Rose and Sand Islands, and Swains Island. Pago Pago, the capital, is on the island of Tutuila. Most of the islands are mountainous, heavily wooded, and surrounded by coral reefs. Nearly all of the land of American Samoa is owned by the native inhabitants.

The People

As of November 2005, American Samoa had 57,881 inhabitants. The Polynesian people account for a large majority of the population. Christian Congregationalism and other Protestant denominations are practiced by over half of the people. 20% of the population identify themselves as Roman Catholic. Most of the inhabitants of American Samoa are bilingual, speaking the native Polynesian tongue and English. American Samoans are considered nationals, rather than citizens of the United States.

The Economy

American Samoa is a traditional Polynesian economy in which more than 90% of the land is communally owned. Economic activity is closely tied to the United States of America, the primary foreign trading partner of American Samoa. Tuna fishing and tuna processing plants are the strongest contributors to the private sector, with canned tuna serving as the primary export. Economic transfers from the United States government contribute to the economic stability of the country. However, further attempts by the American Samoan government to develop a broader and more diverse economy are often restrained by the remote location, limited transportation, and devastating hurricanes.

As of 2000, the Gross Domestic Product (“GDP”) of American Samoa was approximately $500 million, with an annual per capita income of $8,000.

COMMUNICATIONS

The telecommunications in American Samoa include telefax, facsimile and cellular telephone services. The country supports a domestic satellite system with one Comcast earth station.

Table of Contents

The Cellular Market Area (“CMA”) was created from the 1980 Metropolitan Statistical Areas and defined by the Office of Management and Budget to include the Gulf of Mexico (306), and the Rural Service Area (“RSA”). RSAs do not cross state borders and include Puerto Rico (723-729), U.S. Virgin Islands (730-731), Guam (732), Northern Mariana Islands (734) and American Samoa (733). The number of cellular phones in use in American Samoa has increased dramatically since the mid-1990s. As of 1999, there were an estimated 2,377 mobile telephone users in American Samoa.

Country Description

Papua New Guinea

Land, History and Politics

The Independent State of Papua New Guinea is located in the southwest region of the Pacific Ocean and includes the eastern half of the island of New Guinea, the Bismarck Archipelago, the Trobriand Islands, Samarai Island, Woodlark Island, D’Entrecasteaux Islands, the Louisiade Archipelago, and the northernmost Solomon Islands of Buka and Bougainville. Papua New Guinea is a wild, rugged region, divided into 20 provinces.

The southern section of the country, formerly-named Papua was annexed by Queensland in 1883 and became a British protectorate, British New Guinea, in 1884. It was later declared part of Australia in 1905 as the Territory of Papua.

The northern section of the country, New Guinea, was occupied by Germany from 1884 to 1914 and renamed Kaiser-Wilhelmsland during the occupation. While occupied by Australian forces during World War I and under a mandate from the League of Nations, the northern section of the country became the Territory of New Guinea of Australia in 1920. The United Nations confirmed Australian rule of the territory in 1947.

In 1949 the territories of Papua and New Guinea were merged administratively, but remained constitutionally distinct. In 1973 both territories were united as the self-governing country of Papua New Guinea with full independence following in 1975. In the late 1980s a violent secessionist movement broke out on the island of Bougainville. A cease-fire was declared in 1998 and a peace accord granted the island broad autonomy three years later.

Government

The executive branch includes a Chief of State, Head of Government and Cabinet. Members of the Cabinet and National Executive Council are appointed by the governor general at the recommendation of the prime minister. The governor general is appointed by the National Executive Council. A monarch remains in place in the country.

The legislative branch includes a unicameral National Parliament, often referred to as the House of Assembly. There are 109 seats, including 89 elected seats from open electorates and 20 elected seats from provincial electorates. Members serve for a term of five years.

The judicial branch includes the Supreme Court, with the chief justice appointed by the governor general at the proposal of the National Executive Council. Other judges are appointed by the Judicial and Legal Services Commission.

The People

The current population of the region is 5,545,268 inhabitants. The native population is Melanesian. Although some 700 different languages are spoken in the region, Pidgin is the primary language.

ECONOMY

As of 2004, Papua New Guinea’s GDP was $11.99 billion with a per capita income of $2,200.

Table of Contents

Domestic agricultural production sustains most of the population of Papua New Guinea, with sweet potatoes as the primary food crop. Notable agricultural exports include coconut products, rubber, coffee, cocoa, tea, and refined palm oil products. The agriculture sector sustains most of the population of Papua New Guinea, with sweet potatoes as the primary food crop. Notable agricultural exports include coconut products, rubber, coffee, cocoa, tea, and refined palm oil products. Pearl-shell and tortoise fisheries are commonly found along the coastline of the country. Mineral deposits account for 72% of all export earnings. Silver, copper, and gold are all mined in the country. Oil production began in 1992 and some natural gas reserves remain undeveloped. Timber from rain forests also provide an important source of revenue. Although logging efforts by foreign companies began to raise environmental concerns in the 1990’s, exploitation of Papua New Guinea’s natural resources has been hampered by the rugged terrain and high cost of developing infrastructure within the country.

After a prolonged period of instability, economic forecasts for the country are now improving. Efforts by Prime Minister Sir Michael Somore to restore integrity to state institutions, stabilize the local currency, establish a national budget and encourage privatization of public have contributed in this regard. Papua New Guinea receives $240 million in aid from Australia, accounting for 20% of the national budget. The country also seeks to increase investor confidence, bolster efforts to privatize government assets, and balance relations with Australia.

COMMUNICATIONS

A general telephone system supplies communications within the region, including 62,000 main lines and 15,000 mobile telephone lines.

Although the country has a relatively advanced telecom network, as compared to other developing nations, the density of telephone service or mobile and internet services remains very low. Strong infrastructure for the telecommunications system is limited to the major urban centers of Port Moresby, Lae and Mt Hagen.

The Privatization of Telikom, the domestic communications service, was first attempted in 2001 and then again July 2004, when an agreement was reached to sell a majority of the company to Amalgamated Telecom Holdings PNG Pty Ltd. and then to Econet Wireless (a South Africa-based company). In December 2004, however, the government of Papua New Guinea government rejected the bid from Econet Wireless, stating the need to re-examine other options in 2006. In September 2005, Telikom signed an agreement with NewSat to supply satellite communication services through a range of co-branded services including high-speed internet, web browsing, data transfer, video streaming and multicasting services.

APPENDIX C

Country Description

Fiji

History and Politics

Fiji was discovered in 1643 by Dutch explorer, Abel Tasman but was first settled about 3,500 years ago. In 1822, the first European settlement in Fiji was established at Levuka, which in 1871 became the seat of the first national government, the Kingdom of Fiji. Great Britain annexed the islands in 1874 and declared it a British colony. In 1882, the capital was moved from Levuka to Suva.

In 1970, Fiji gained independence as a member of the British Commonwealth with Ratu Sir Kamisese Marass prime minister. In 1987, Colonel Sitiveni Rabuka led two coups that took control of the government from the Fiji Labor Party dominated by the Indian population. Fiji was then declared a republic and ceased to be a part of the British Commonwealth.

The Government of Fiji is divided into four divisions, which are further subdivided into fourteen provinces. Each division is headed by a Commissioner, appointed by the Fijian government. The President of Fiji is elected by the Great Council of Chiefs and serves for a term of five years. The President also appoints the Prime Minister. Although the role of the President is largely honorary and modelled after that of the British monarchy, the President has reserved constitutional powers that may be used in the event of a national crisis. The president also serves as Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces. The Great Council of Chiefs recognizes Queen Elizabeth II as its Paramount Chief.

The bicameral Parliament consists of the Senate and the House of Representatives. The House of Representatives has 25 open seats which may be occupied by any citizen satisfying requirements established by law. Each representative serves for a term of five years.

Cabinet members, selected from members of Parliament, are appointed by the Prime Minister and responsible to Parliament. The Presidential Council and the Great Council of Chiefs, including of the highest ranking members of the traditional chief system, advises the President on matter of national importance

Judicial power is vested in three courts; the High Court, Court of Appeal, and Supreme Court, established by the Constitution, which also makes provision for other courts to be set up by Parliament.

The Land

The Republic of the Fiji Islands is a Melanesian island group, comprised of 320 islands, 105 of which are inhabited. Viti Levu, the largest island, comprises half of Fiji’s land area.

Fiji’s climate is warm and humid. Dense tropical forests are found on the windward sides of the islands; grassy plains and clumps of casuarina and pandanus grow on the leeward sides and mangrove forests and hot springs are abundant in the mountain regions.

The People

As of July 2005, Fiji had 893,354 inhabitants, of which 75% resided on the island of Viti Levu. The majority of the indigenous population of the eastern islands is Polynesian. Origins of the Indian population can be traced to a period from 1879 to 1916, when many people came to Fiji from India to serve as indentured workers in the sugar industry established by the British Government through the Colonial Sugar Refining company in Fiji. Much of this Indian population left Fiji after the 1987 coup and today comprise 44% of the total population. Europeans, Pacific Islanders, Chinese and other ethnicities comprise approximately 5% of the population.

 

C-1


Table of Contents

The native Fijians are predominantly Christian; the Indians are about three quarters Hindu and one quarter Muslim. The official language of Fiji is Fijian, but English and Hindi are also spoken. English is recognized as the official language of Fiji.

ECONOMY

The seaports often denote the most important cities in Fiji, including Suva and Lautoka and Levuka. With ample forests, minerals, and fishing resources, Fiji’s economy is one of the most developed in the Pacific island region. Fiji’s economy is also largely agrarian, with sugar exports serving as a major source of foreign trade. Sugar processing comprises one-third of all industrial activity, but remains largely inefficient. Long-term economic challenges include low investment, uncertain land ownership rights, and the government’s inability to manage the budget. Short-run economic forecasts are favorable but are subject to the risk of erupting tensions between native Fijians and Indo-Fijians.

As of 2005, the GDP, by official exchange rate, of Fiji was approximately $5.4 billion. In 2005, GDP, per capita, by purchasing power parity, was $6,000. Overseas money transfers into Fiji have increased significantly, as the result of many Fijians working in Kuwait and Iraq.

COMMUNICATIONS

The telephone service in Fiji include modern local, interisland and international (wire/radio integrated) public and special-purpose telephone, teleprinter facilities and a regional radio communications center. As of 2003, there were 102,000 land lines and 109,900 mobile telephones in use.

Fiji’s telecom system is reliable and efficient with access to the Southern Cross cable that connects New Zealand, Australia and North America. The country’s telecom industry is comprised primarily of three major monopolies, the services of which are all protected through exclusivity licenses. Telecom Fiji Ltd has the exclusive license to provide domestic voice and data services; Vodafone Fiji Ltd is the sole provider of mobile services; and Fiji International Telecommunications Ltd (Fintel) has the monopoly on the supply of international voice and data services. Fiji’s broadband services are among the most expensive in the world, essentially due to little competition in the local market. In October 2005, Unwired Fiji launched the country’s first privately owned broadband wireless network.
