ORGANIZATION AND OVERVIEW
Segmentz Inc. (Segmentz, the Company,
we, and us), a Delaware corporation, is
a Buchanan, Michigan based company that provides transportation
services to a diverse client base within the United States and
portions of Canada. We originated in 2001 and have primarily
utilized an acquisitive business strategy since that time. Our
intent has been to create a multifaceted transportation
organization offering transportation services that include
expedite, deferred air freight, local cartage, aircraft
charters, dedicated delivery, shipment consolidation, warehouse
management and fulfillment services. We raised capital through a
series of private placements and used this capital to acquire
five transportation companies, as well as to support the
formation of transportation operations. The acquisitions
include: Temple Trucking Services, Inc. (Temple) in October
2004, Express-1, Inc. (Express-1) in August 2004, Dasher
Express, Inc. (Dasher) in December of 2003, Bullet Freight
Systems, Inc. (Bullet), together with its affiliates, in October
2003 and certain assets of Murphy Surf Air Trucking, Inc. in
October 2003. In addition, we purchased certain assets of
Frontline Freight in January 2004 and subsequently disposed of
these assets within 2004. Our physical presence grew to include
locations in twenty (20) cities operating across many
transportation service sectors. We have had a history of
operating losses, primarily attributable to our initial growth
strategy. We were unsuccessful in developing operational
synergies and economies of scale in our diverse operations that
could have helped us become profitable.
In 2004, shortly after the acquisition of Express-1, Inc., our
Board of Directors and management team implemented a
restructuring plan (the Plan) for our Company. The
Plan called for the closing of our unprofitable companies,
operations and locations. It also refocused our Company on our
profitable expedite transportation businesses. Throughout the
fall of 2004, we exited our
airport-to-airport
business and consolidated our Dasher business into our other
expedite operations. Continuing this restructuring activity in
2005, we exited our Tampa brokerage in addition to our Temple
and Bullet operations. We also completed the relocation of our
executive offices from Tampa, Florida to Buchanan, Michigan.
Due to the restructuring, we have been able to eliminate the
need for physical facilities in eighteen (18) locations,
thereby greatly reducing our overhead burden. Headcount was
reduced from a high of 475 in August 2004, to 274 at
December 31, 2004 and was further reduced to 127 employees
as of December 31, 2005. The table below outlines the
timeline and activities involved in the restructuring Plan along
with the restructuring charges associated with each activity. In
addition, a list of the closed locations has been included below.

During the third quarter of 2005, our Company completed
substantially all of our restructuring activities. Remaining
after the completion of the Plan were our Express-1 expedite
operations located in Buchanan, Michigan and our dedicated
expedite transportation operation located in Evansville,
Indiana. The Express-1 operations have historically been
profitable, while the Evansville operations have become
profitable during 2005. These operations are complimentary and
provide us with a core base of focused transportation services,
on which to build. In conjunction with this restructuring, we
anticipate gaining approval from our shareholders at our next
annual meeting to change our name from Segmentz, Inc. to
Express-1 Expedite Solutions Inc.
EXPEDITE TRANSPORTATION MARKET
The trucking industry in the United States is estimated to
exceed $600 billion in annual revenue and is expected to
grow at a rate parallel to the U.S. economy, according to
the American Trucking Association (ATA). The trucking industry
is comprised of both private fleets and for-hire carriers. The
for-hire market represents approximately 40% of trucking
industry volume, according to the ATA. Within this for-hire
market is a much smaller subset of freight movements that are
time definite and/or time sensitive making up the expedite
transportation market. The expedite market is characterized by
shipments that are typically completed in the same day or are
high priority in nature. The magnitude of the expedite freight
volume in the U.S. has been defined by various sources to
have annual revenues ranging from a few billion dollars to
several times this amount. For purposes of this report, we use
the terms expedite and expedited interchangeably.
The expedite market developed primarily as a result of the shift
towards more tightly managed supply chains, and serves companies
of all sizes, which depend on the delivery of
just-in-time inventory
to help them control costs and compete more efficiently. As
companies manage their inventories, services and production
lines in an increasingly leaner fashion, the need for
specialized transportation services has increased. The expedite
transportation industry has supported this transformation by
helping companies reduce overhead and by streamlining the
materials management process.
3
Expedite transportation providers also service industries where
the products are routinely dated and require tightly staged
delivery schedules, such as within the financial printing and
pharmaceutical industries. In addition, due to the continual
shortages of drivers within the overall transportation industry
and the varying levels of capacity, more industries have begun
to use expedite transportation services to mitigate the
interruptions occasionally caused by other forms of
transportation such as full-truckload and less-than-truckload
services.
We provide expedite services to over 1,000 customers,
specializing in time sensitive transportation and offer a
variety of exclusive use vehicles, providing reliable same day
or high priority service between points within the United States
and parts of Canada. Services include expedite surface
transportation, aircraft charters and dedicated expedite
delivery. Our vehicles include cargo vans, both 12 foot and 24
foot straight trucks and tractor-trailers. Our Company offers an
ISO 9001:2000 certified, twenty-four hour, seven day a week call
center allowing the customer immediate communication and status
of time sensitive shipments in transit. We also provide the
customer with electronic alerts, shipment tracking, proof of
delivery reconciliation, billing status and performance reports.
We are dedicated to providing premium services that are
customized to meet our clients individual needs and
flexible enough to cope with an ever-changing business
environment.
GROWTH STRATEGY
Our current growth strategy is focused on organic initiatives,
which we feel will enhance both our top and bottom lines.
Through organic means, our management team anticipates we will
be able to increase our fleet capacity, expedite market presence
and geographic footprint. Our confidence in this strategy is
based, in part, upon our successful record of organic growth
within our Express-1 expedite operations. Complementing this
internal growth, we plan to entertain selective acquisitions on
occasion, if they compliment our growth strategies as noted
below.
Increase Fleet Capacity We rely
on independent contractors to provide most of our capacity. Most
of our drivers are independent business persons who operate one
or more of their own units on a contract basis with our Company.
These drivers typically sign on with us for periods longer than
thirty days and provide services under our operating authority
and public liability insurance. In addition we supplement our
independent contractor fleet, by obtaining capacity from partner
carriers. Usually, partners consist of trucking companies that
operate under their own operating authority and public liability
insurance contracting with our Company for one or more loads.
Although our operating margin is typically less with our partner
carriers, this network of carriers enables us to handle peak
demands throughout the year.
The use of third parties allows us to maintain a lower level of
capital investment which historically has allowed Express-1 to
grow with less capital investment than carriers which use
company owned equipment. We define this less capital intensive
operating model as asset light. In 2005, we were
successful in growing our fleet of independent contractors and
partner carriers and continue to believe that we will be able to
further increase our fleet in future periods to meet the demands
of our customer base.
Expedite Market Presence Express-1 has an
outstanding reputation for high quality service within the
industry, as evidenced by the numerous service awards we have
received over the years. Some of our most recent awards include
being named as the Expeditor of the Year by Landstar Global
Logistics, and receiving the carrier excellence award from
National Logistics Management. Our Evansville operation was
recently recognized by Fords Customer Service Division and
presented with their inaugural carrier of the quarter award
presented to their premier dedicated delivery service providers.
We continue to promote our name to new and existing industries
by appearances at trade shows as well as promotions utilizing
various other mediums, including a strong external sales force.
Our proposed name change from Segmentz, Inc. to
Express-1 Expedite
Solutions, Inc. is primarily intended to further strengthen our
brand.
Awareness of our company and its services within the expedited
market is further enhanced by our internal sales team who are
focused on resolving issues for our customers. When expedites
are necessary, customers want to make sure their critical calls
go to an organization that understands their urgency and
timeline. They generally want a commitment over the phone or
within a very short timeframe via an electronic medium, such as
the internet. Once the load is committed, our customers want to
receive updates and
4
communications that give them assurance the load will be
delivered on time and as agreed. Our internal sales team is
structured to provide this coverage and comfort to our customers.
Geographic Footprint We have expanded our
geographic footprint within the expedited market, primarily
through the use of external sales personnel. As of
December 31, 2005, we had eight field sales
representatives. Together with our Sales management team and
support staff, our company is continually making new contacts
and turning leads into sales relationships. This structure has
allowed our routine services to expand beyond their Midwest
origins to cover the eastern 30 states in the U.S. as
well as Texas and Ontario over the past few years. Our expedite
movements venture beyond this core region on an irregular basis,
and service shipments in the lower 48 states within the
U.S. and other parts of Canada.
Our geographic footprint is also enhanced by our growing
capacity. As our capacity increases, our opportunities to expand
geographically also increase. Much of the expedite market in the
U.S. is controlled by third party logistics companies.
These companies increasingly award freight movements through
electronic methods, such as
e-mail and via the
internet. Our increases in capacity have allowed our company to
be awarded loads that cover ever broadening geographical areas.
Complement Organic Growth with Acquisitions
We will continue to entertain potential acquisitions to
complement our organic growth and increase our size and expedite
market share. Future acquisitions will be considered to the
extent they compliment our focus on the expedited transportation
market; can be readily assimilated into the overall operations
of the Company; and can become quickly accretive to our
earnings. We were not in discussions with potential acquisition
candidates as of December 31, 2005.
OPERATIONS AND SERVICES
We are an asset light expedite transportation services provider,
specializing in time critical delivery in support of our
customers needs. We are ISO certified and operate a twenty-four
hour seven day a week call center operation for all on demand
capacity needs, including air charters. We offer a variety of
exclusive use vehicles, providing reliable same day or high
priority freight services.
Our Express-1 expedite operations are headquartered in Buchanan,
Michigan and provide approximately 90% of our revenues.
Express-1 uses a fleet of independent contractors to provide
most of its operating capacity. Supplementing this fleet are
partner carriers who provide both dedicated and on-demand
capacity for our customers.
Our Evansville operation provides dedicated expedite services to
a major automotive manufacturer, through a long term contract
with a third party logistics provider. Our operations fulfill
orders between service locations and a major parts distribution
facility in Evansville, Indiana. Our Evansville operation was
recently recognized by Ford as the Top Performing Carrier, as
chosen by their Customer Service Division for the fourth quarter
of 2005. Our initial four-year contract runs through April 2007
and we anticipate seeking renewal prior to that time. Our
management team is hopeful that this relationship will be
extended for many years and is committed to working with our
customer to facilitate this renewal.
INFORMATION SYSTEMS
The transportation industry increasingly relies upon information
technology to link the shipper with its inventory and as an
analytical tool to optimize transportation solutions. We utilize
satellite tracking and communication units on our fleet of
contractors to continually update the position of our equipment.
The equipment also allows us to communicate specifically to an
individual driver or to a larger fleet of drivers. Information
received through our satellite communications system
automatically updates our internal software and provides our
customers with real-time electronic updates. Investment in
technology including satellite communications equipment,
computer networks and the related hardware and software
typically represents our largest single capital expenditure.
5
CUSTOMERS, SALES AND MARKETING
We have many commercial customers ranging from small companies
to Fortune 500 companies.
Express-1 is a leading
expedite transportation supplier which services a diverse client
base representing; commercial printing, consumer staples,
pharmaceuticals, high tech and major domestic automotive
manufacturers. Recently we obtained our hazmat authority to
better meet the service needs of our customers by providing them
a single source for most of their expedite movements. In
addition, we serve third party logistics providers, airfreight
forwarders and integrated air cargo carriers. Our third party
logistics customers vary in size from small, independent, single
facility companies to large, global logistics companies. We
market our services within the United States and portions of
Canada, through the business development staff and regional
outside sales representatives. Our executive management team is
also actively involved in sales and marketing at the national
account level.
COMPETITION AND BUSINESS CONDITIONS
The transportation industry is intensely competitive and should
remain so for the near future. Our competitors include national
and regional expedite transportation companies that specialize
in same day or high priority freight services. In addition, many
larger full truckload and less-than-truckload motor carriers
offer services that compete for our customers time
sensitive transportation needs. To a lesser extent, we compete
with integrated air cargo carriers and passenger and cargo
airlines. Our competitive landscape is characterized on service,
delivery timeframes, flexibility and reliability, as well as
rates. We have historically offered services at rates that are
in-line with those charged by our competitors in the expedite
industry. We believe we have an advantage over many competitors
based upon our reputation for quickly and efficiently covering
loads.
REGULATION
The U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) regulates
our industry. This regulatory authority has broad powers,
generally governing matters such as authority to engage in motor
carrier operations, safety, hazardous materials transportation,
certain mergers, consolidations and acquisitions and periodic
financial reporting. The trucking industry is subject to
regulatory and legislative changes, which can affect the
economics of the industry. We are also regulated by various
state agencies and, in Canada, by other regulatory authorities.
Our safety rating is satisfactory, the highest rating given by
the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA), a
department within the DOT. There are three safety ratings
assigned to motor carriers: satisfactory,
conditional, meaning that there are deficiencies
requiring correction, but not so significant to warrant loss of
carrier authority and unsatisfactory, which is the
result of acute deficiencies leading to the revocation of
carrier authority.
Our operations are also subject to various federal, state and
local environmental laws and regulations dealing with
transportation, storage, presence, use, and the disposal and
handling of hazardous materials. The Code of Federal Regulations
regarding the transportation of hazardous materials, group
hazardous materials into different classes according to risk. We
transport only low to medium risk hazardous material,
representing less than 1% of our total shipments. These
regulations also require us to maintain minimum levels of
insurance.
SEASONALITY
Historically, our revenues and profitability have been subject
to seasonal fluctuations. Our seasonality has changed somewhat
from historical patterns, due to our restructuring efforts.
Future seasonality will more closely reflect the historical
trends of our Express-1 operations. Approximately 45% of our
Express-1 revenue has historically been derived in the first and
second quarters with the remaining 55% coming in the third and
fourth quarters. Income from operations has traditionally
increased quarter by quarter throughout the year, at Express-1,
as freight demands have created tighter capacity and resulted in
increased rates. This pattern has resulted from factors such as
climate, national holidays, customer demand and other economic
conditions. Our
6
Evansville operation has not shown the same degree of seasonal
fluctuation due to the consistency of its dedicated contract.
EMPLOYEES AND INDEPENDENT CONTRACTORS
At December 31, 2005, we had approximately
127 full-time employees. At this time, none of our
employees are covered by a collective bargaining agreement. We
recognize our trained staff of employees as one of our most
critical resources, and recognize that the recruitment, training
and retention of qualified employees is essential to our ongoing
success.
In addition to our employees, we also support our capacity needs
through the use of independent contractors. These individuals
operate their own vehicles and pay for all the operating
expenses of their equipment, including: wages and benefits,
fuel, physical damage insurance, maintenance, highway use taxes,
and other related equipment costs. By utilizing the services of
independent contractors, we have reduced the amount of capital
required for our growth which we feel has lessened our financial
risk.
SEC FILINGS
Since our inception, our status with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (SEC) has been that of a small business
filer. We will become a regular status filer for periodic
reports and other filings submitted to the SEC beginning with
the first reports filed for calendar year 2006. As a result, we
will file forms 10Q and 10K to satisfy our periodic reporting
requirements instead of forms 10QSB and 10KSB. We make available
on our website, located at www.express-1.com, all materials
filed with the SEC.
In addition, our public filings may be either accessed free of
charge on the SECs Edgar website, located at www.sec.gov,
or read and copied at the SECs Public Reference Room at
450 Fifth Street, N.W., Washington, D.C. 20549. You
may obtain information on the operation of the Public Reference
Room by calling the SEC at
1-800-SEC-0330.
Neither the information on our Company website nor the SEC
website is incorporated in this report as a result of these
references.
CORPORATE INFORMATION
Segmentz, Inc. was incorporated in Delaware in 2001. Our
executive offices are located at 429 Post Road, Buchanan,
Michigan 49107. Our telephone number is (269) 695-2700 and
the internet website address is www.express-1.com. Our stock is
listed on the American Stock Exchange (AMEX) under the
symbol SZI. In conjunction with our anticipated name
change after our Annual Meeting of Stockholders, we have
reserved AMEX stock symbol XPO. The information on
our website is not incorporated in this report as a result of
this reference.
RISKS PARTICULAR TO THE COMPANYS BUSINESS
CUSTOMER CONCENTRATION; RELIANCE ON AUTOMOTIVE INDUSTRY
Express-1 obtained approximately 49% of its revenue from our
twenty largest customers in 2005. For 2004, we obtained
approximately 53% of our revenue from our top twenty customers.
While the individual customer rankings between our top customers
often change from
month-to-month, we rely
upon our relationship with each of these customers for a
significant portion of our revenues. Any interruption in the
business volume awarded by these customers could materially
adversely impact our revenues and resulting profitability.
The automotive industry within the U.S. is highly
competitive, with increased competition from foreign-based
companies. These companies produce automobiles in both the
U.S. as well as foreign locations. The Big Three
U.S. automakers have seen declining market shares fueling
concern among the media and numerous financial analysts over
whether they will be able to sufficiently scale their operations
at sustainable levels to improve recent poor operating results.
In addition to the big three automotive manufacturers, our
customers
7
include various automotive industry suppliers that have been and
will continue to be negatively impacted by the changing
landscape in the U.S. automotive market. Continuing
negative trends or a worsening in the financial condition of the
domestic U.S. automotive manufacturers, or within the
associated supplier base, could materially adversely impact our
company, our revenues, and the results of our operations.
LOSSES FROM OPERATIONS; NO ASSURANCES OF PROFITABILITY
We have a history of losses from operations. For the years ended
December 31, 2005 and 2004, our operating losses were
approximately $5,815,000 and $3,238,000, respectively. There can
be no assurance that we will not incur additional losses in the
future, or that our restructuring plan will position our Company
in the manner necessary to create sustainable operating profits
in the future. There is no assurance that we will be able to
generate sufficient revenue to meet our operating expenditures
or to operate profitably.
ECONOMIC RISKS; RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH THE BUSINESS OF
TRANSPORTATION AND LOGISTICS MANAGEMENT
Our business is dependent upon a number of factors, over which
we have little or no control that may have a materially adverse
effect on our results of operations. These factors include:
capacity swings in the trucking industry, significant increases
or rapid fluctuations in fuel prices, interest rates, fuel
taxes, government regulations, governmental and law enforcement
anti-terrorism actions, tolls, license and registration fees,
insurance premiums and labor costs. It is difficult at times to
attract and retain qualified drivers and independent contract
drivers. Operations also are affected by recessionary economic
cycles and downturns in customers business cycles,
particularly in market segments and industries (such as
manufacturing, retail and commercial printing) in which we have
a significant concentration of customers. Seasonal factors could
also adversely affect us. Customers tend to reduce shipments
after the winter holiday season and operating expenses tend to
be higher in the winter months primarily due to increased
operating costs in colder weather and higher fuel consumption as
a result of increased idle time. Regional or nationwide fuel
shortages could also have adverse effects.
DEPENDENCE ON EQUIPMENT PROVIDED BY THIRD PARTIES; RELIANCE
ON INDEPENDENT CONTRACTORS
The trucking industry is dependent upon transportation equipment
oftentimes provided by independent third parties. Periods of
equipment shortages have occurred periodically in the
transportation industry, particularly during a strong economy.
If we cannot secure sufficient transportation equipment or
transportation services from these third parties to meet our
customers needs, our business, results of operations and
financial position could be materially adversely affected and
our customers could seek to have their transportation needs met
by other parties on a temporary or permanent basis.
NEW TRENDS AND TECHNOLOGY; CONSOLIDATION AMONG CUSTOMERS
If, for any reason, the Companys business of providing
services ceases to be a preferred method of obtaining these
services by our customers, or if new supply chain or
technological methods become available and widely utilized to
reduce the need for expedite transportation services, our
business could be adversely affected. Moreover, increasing
consolidation among customers and the resulting ability of such
customers to utilize their size to negotiate lower outsourcing
costs has, and may continue in the future to have, a depressing
effect on the pricing of third-party logistic services.
Consolidation is not limited to traditional customers such as
manufacturers, but also includes consolidation of expedite
volume by third party logistics companies, which increasingly
control more of the expedite market and influence prices of
expedite services through the use of technology such as internet
auctions.
8
INTERRUPTION OF BUSINESS DUE TO INCREASED SECURITY MEASURES
IN RESPONSE TO TERRORISM
The continued threat of terrorism within the United States and
the ongoing military action and heightened security measures in
response to such threat has and may cause significant disruption
to commerce. Our business depends on the free flow of products
and services through these channels of commerce. In response to
terrorists activities and threats aimed at the United
States, transportation and other services have been slowed or
stopped altogether. Further delays or stoppages in
transportation or other services could have a materially adverse
effect on our business, results of operations and financial
condition. Furthermore, we may experience an increase in
operating costs, such as costs for transportation, insurance and
security as a result of the activities and potential activities.
We may also face interruption of services due to increased
security measures in response to terrorism. The
U.S. economy in general can be adversely affected by
terrorist activities and potential activities. Any economic
downturn could adversely impact our results of operations or
otherwise adversely affect our ability to grow our business. It
is impossible to predict how this may affect our business or the
economy in the U.S. and in the world, generally. In the event of
further threats or acts of terrorism, our business and
operations may be severely and adversely affected or destroyed.
COMPETITION
The transportation and logistics services industry is heavily
fragmented and intensely competitive and includes numerous
regional, inter-regional and national competitors, none of which
dominates the market. There are several larger transportation
providers with significantly higher capital resources, which
could allow that competitor to position their company as a low
cost provider. This could greatly affect our margins and our
ability to sustain or grow our revenues.
REGULATION
Our operations are regulated and licensed by various U.S. and
Canadian agencies. Our drivers and independent contractors also
must comply with the safety and fitness regulations of the
United States Department of Transportation, or DOT, including
those relating to drug and alcohol testing and
hours-of-service. Such
matters as weight and equipment dimensions are also subject to
U.S. and Canadian regulations. We also may become subject to new
or more restrictive regulations relating to fuel emissions,
drivers
hours-of-service,
ergonomics, or other matters affecting safety or operating
methods. Future laws and regulations may be more stringent and
require changes in our operating practices, influence the demand
for transportation services, or require us to incur significant
additional costs. Higher costs incurred by us or by our
suppliers who pass the costs onto us through higher prices would
adversely affect our results of operations.
The FMCSA revised their
Hours-of-Service
(HOS) regulations effective January 2004 to increase
the maximum daily drive time from 10 to 11 hours, but no
longer allowed for breaks in the on-duty period. We believe that
these changes may have caused productivity to decline due to
unavoidable wait time incurred while our equipment is loaded,
unloaded or otherwise detained which cannot be recovered with
additional drive time. In such situations, we have worked with
our shippers to try to minimize the loss of productivity. When
necessary, we have also billed our shippers for excess wait
time. Due to the time sensitive nature of expedite shipments in
general, the impact of detention on our business, especially at
the receiving end of a shipment is typically lower than the
trucking industry at large. Shippers and receivers typically
need their expedited goods promptly and usually do not want to
contribute to delays sometimes experienced in the truckload
industry.
The FMCSA further amended the new HOS regulations effective
October 2005. In general, the regulations did not reduce the
amount of available driving hours, but restricted the sleeper
berth provision. The new sleeper berth provision allows the
drivers required rest period of 10 hours to be split
into two parts, but requires one period to be at least 8
consecutive hours. These changes could impact the flexibility of
solo and team drivers to effectively manage their available work
hours. If we are unsuccessful in working with customers on the
timing of pick-ups and deliveries or in working with contractors
to optimize their available driving hours, the changes could
result in a loss of productivity.
9
REVENUE GROWTH
We have achieved significant revenue growth on a historical
basis within our Express-1 operations. Our Evansville operation
is relatively flat from a revenue growth standpoint and cannot
be viewed as a significant source of future company growth.
There is no assurance that our revenue growth rate will continue
at previous historical levels or that we can effectively adapt
our management, administrative, and operating systems to respond
to any future growth. Our operating margins could be adversely
affected by future changes in and expansion of our business or
by changes in economic conditions. Slower or less profitable
growth could adversely affect our stock price.
SUBSTANTIAL ALTERATION OF THE COMPANYS CURRENT BUSINESS
AND REVENUE MODEL
Our strategy for increasing our revenue and profitability
includes continued focus on the expedite transportation market
and cultivation of organic growth opportunities. We may
experience difficulties and higher than expected expenses in
executing our expedite model and developing new business.
Our present business and revenue model represents the current
view of the optimal business and revenue structure, which is to
derive revenues and achieve profitability in the shortest
period. There can be no assurance that current models will not
be altered significantly or replaced with an alternative model
that is driven by motivations other than near-term revenues and
profitability. Any such alteration or replacement of the
business and revenue model may ultimately result in the deferral
of revenue and associated profits in favor of other factors. We
cannot assure that any adjustment or change in the business and
revenue model will prove to be successful.
ACQUISITIONS
We have made five acquisitions since our inception in 2001. In
addition, we purchased certain assets of another company, which
were later disposed within the same year. Accordingly,
acquisitions have provided a substantial portion of our growth.
There is no assurance that we will be successful in identifying,
negotiating, or consummating any future acquisitions. If we fail
to make any future acquisitions, our growth rate could be
materially and adversely affected.
Any acquisitions we undertake could involve the dilutive
issuance of equity securities and/or incurring indebtedness. In
addition, acquisitions involve numerous risks, including
difficulties in assimilating the acquired companys
operations, the diversion of our managements attention
from other business concerns, risks of entering into markets in
which we have had no or only limited direct experience, and the
potential loss of customers, key employees, and drivers of the
acquired company, all of which could have a materially adverse
effect on our business and operating results. Most of our
historical acquisitions have not been successful. If we make
acquisitions in the future, there is no assurance that we will
be able to negotiate favorable terms or successfully integrate
the acquired companies or assets into our business. If we fail
to do so, or we experience other risks associated with
acquisitions, our financial condition and results of operations
could be materially and adversely affected.
INABILITY TO MANAGE GROWTH AND INTERNAL EXPANSION
Our inability to manage anticipated future growth could hurt the
results of operations. Expansion of operations will be required
to address anticipated growth of our customer base and market
opportunities. Expansion will place a significant strain on our
management, operational and financial resources. Currently, we
have a limited number of employees. We will need to continually
improve existing procedures and controls as well as implement
new transaction processing, operational and financial systems,
procedures and controls to expand, train and manage our employee
base. Failure to manage growth effectively could have a damaging
effect on our business, results of operations and financial
condition.
10
DEPENDENCE ON DRIVERS
Our driving force is primarily made up of independent contractor
drivers, as opposed to company employee drivers. At times we
experienced substantial difficulty in attracting and retaining
sufficient numbers of qualified drivers, including independent
contractors. In addition, due in part to current economic
conditions, including the higher cost of fuel, insurance, and
equipment, the available pool of independent contract drivers
has been declining. This decline is especially apparent within
the fleet of straight trucks, which serve many of the critical
needs of the expedite industry. Because of the shortage of
qualified drivers, the availability of alternative jobs due to
current economic conditions, and intense competition for drivers
from other trucking companies, we expect to continue to face
difficulty increasing the number of contract drivers, who are
our principal source of planned fleet expansion and resulting
growth. In addition, our industry as a whole suffers from high
turnover rates of drivers. This turnover rate requires us to
continually recruit a substantial number of drivers in order to
maintain our existing fleet. If we are unable to continue to
attract a sufficient number of drivers, including independent
contractors, we could be required to adjust our compensation
packages or operate with fewer pieces of equipment and face
difficulty meeting shipper demands, all of which would adversely
affect our growth and profitability. In addition, the
compensation we offer our drivers and independent contractors is
subject to market forces, and we may find it necessary to
continue to increase their compensation in future periods. Any
increase in our operating costs would adversely affect our
growth and profitability.
DEPENDENCE ON KEY MANAGEMENT; LOSS OF KEY MANAGEMENT COULD
HAVE A MATERIAL ADVERSE EFFECT ON OPERATIONS
We believe that the attraction and retention of qualified
personnel is critical to our success. If we lose key personnel
or are unable to recruit qualified personnel, the ability to
manage the day-to-day
aspects of the business will be weakened. Our operations and
prospects depend in large part on the performance of the senior
management team. The loss of the services of one or more members
of the senior management team could have a materially adverse
effect on the business, financial condition and results of
operations. Because the senior management team has extensive
experience within the transportation industry, it would be
difficult to replace them without adversely effecting our
business operations. In addition to their unique experience, our
management team has fostered key relationships with our
suppliers. These relationships are especially important to our
Company and the loss of these relationships could have a
materially adverse effect on our profitability.
INSURANCE AND CLAIMS EXPENSE
Our future insurance and claims expenses may exceed historical
levels, which could reduce our earnings. We maintain general
liability, auto liability, cargo, physical damage, trailer
interchange, inland marine, contents, workers
compensation, excess auto, general liability and directors
and officers insurance policies for certain types of
risks. Some of these policies are written with deductibles of up
to $25,000 per occurrence. We currently reserve for
anticipated losses and expenses and regularly evaluate and
adjust our claims reserves to reflect actual experience.
However, ultimate results may differ from our estimates, which
could result in losses above reserved amounts. Because of our
deductibles, we have significant exposure to fluctuations in the
number and severity of claims. Our operating results will be
adversely affected if we experience an increase in the frequency
and severity of claims for which we maintain higher deductible
policies, accruals of significant amounts within a given period,
or claims proving to be more severe than originally assessed.
We maintain coverage with insurance carriers that we believe are
financially sound. Although we believe our aggregate insurance
limits are sufficient to cover reasonably expected claims, it is
possible that one or more claims could exceed those limits.
Insurance carriers recently have been raising premiums for many
businesses, including transportation companies. As a result, our
insurance and claims expense could increase, or we could find it
necessary to raise our deductibles or decrease our aggregate
coverage limits when our policies are renewed or replaced. Our
operating results and financial condition may be adversely
affected if these expenses increase, if we experience a claim in
excess of our coverage limits, or if we experience a claim for
which we do not have coverage.
11
FLUCTUATIONS IN THE PRICE OR AVAILABILITY OF FUEL
We require large amounts of fuel to operate our fleet, and fuel
is one of our contractors largest operating expenses. Fuel
prices fluctuate greatly, and prices and availability of all
petroleum products are subject to economic, political, and other
market factors beyond our control. Most of our customer
contracts contain fuel surcharge provisions to mitigate the
effect of price increases over base amounts set in the contract.
Significant changes in the price or availability of fuel in
future periods or significant changes in our ability to mitigate
fuel price increases with the establishment of fuel surcharges,
could materially adversely impact our operations, fleet capacity
and ability to generate both revenues and profits.
NEED FOR SUBSTANTIAL, ADDITIONAL FINANCING
There is no guarantee that we will be able to obtain financing
if required to expand our business or that the present funding
sources will continue to extend terms under which we can operate
efficiently. If we are unable to secure financing under
favorable terms, our Company may be materially adversely
affected. We currently use a line of credit secured by trade
account receivables. There is no assurance that we will continue
to be able to maintain financing on acceptable terms.
VOLATILITY OF THE MARKET PRICE OF THE COMPANYS STOCK
The market price of our common stock may be volatile, which
could cause the value of your investment to decline. Any of the
following factors could affect the market price of our common
stock:
|
|
|
|
|
Changes in earnings estimates and outlook by financial analysts; |
|
|
|
Our failure to meet financial analysts and investors
performance expectations; |
|
|
|
Changes in market valuations of other transportation and
logistics companies; |
|
|
|
General market and economic conditions; or |
|
|
|
Lower daily trading volume associated with a less followed
stock, and the resulting impact on a stocks liquidity. |
In addition, many of the risks described elsewhere in this
Risks Particular to the Companys business
section could adversely affect the stock price. The stock
markets have experienced price and volume volatility that have
affected many companies stock prices. Stock prices for
many companies have experienced wide fluctuations that have
often been unrelated to the operating performance of those
companies. These types of fluctuations may affect the market
price of our common stock.
NO DIVIDENDS ANTICIPATED
We have no immediate plans to pay dividends. Our current
intention is to retain all future earnings and cash flows for
use in the development of our business and enhancing shareholder
value through growth and continued focus on increasing
profitability. Accordingly, we do not anticipate paying any cash
dividends on our Common Stock in the near future.
Our executive offices are located in our 20,000 square feet
call center located at 429 Post Road, Buchanan, Michigan 49107.
The Buchanan facility is owned by our company, and is financed
through an existing mortgage note. In conjunction with our new
credit facility, we anticipate moving the mortgage in the first
quarter of 2006.

Approximately $212,000 of the above facility commitments are for
facilities that have been closed in our restructuring
activities. These costs have been accrued as liabilities as of
December 31, 2005, and represent our net cost after
anticipated sublease revenues.
Our Company continues to have leases for these closed locations
on which we have negotiated sub-lease agreements. We continue to
explore early termination options on these facilities.

We currently serve all our customers through three locations.
Our Buchanan facility serves as our primary administrative
offices and call center for our Express-1 operations. Our
Swanton, Ohio location supports the Express-1 operations by
serving as a recruiting center as well as a centrally located
cross-dock facility for much of our Midwest operations. Our
Evansville location serves as the primary cross-dock location as
well as housing the administrative offices for our Evansville
dedicated service operation. We believe the facilities are the
correct size and adequately provide for our immediate and
foreseeable needs in the future. In the opinion of management,
these properties are adequately insured, in good condition and
are suitable for our anticipated future use. The addresses of

There are approximately 600 holders of record of the
Companys common stock. The Company has never paid cash
dividends on its common stock. The Company intends to keep
future earnings, if any, to finance the expansion of its
business, and accordingly the Company does not anticipate that
any cash dividends will be paid in the near future. The
Companys future payment of dividends will depend on its
earnings, capital requirements, expansion plans, financial
condition and other relevant factors.

Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations |
This discussion is intended to further the readers
understanding of our Companys financial condition and
results of operations and should be read in conjunction with our
consolidated financial statements and related notes included
elsewhere herein. This discussion also contains forward-looking
statements. Our actual results could differ materially from
those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a
result of the risks and uncertainties set forth elsewhere in
this Annual Report and in our other SEC filings. Readers are
cautioned not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking
statements, which speak only as of the date hereof. We are not a
party to any transactions that would be considered off
balance sheet pursuant to disclosure requirements under
ITEM 303(c).
14
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
|
|
|
Principles of Consolidation |
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the
accounts of Segmentz, Inc. and all of its wholly-owned
subsidiaries. All significant inter-company balances and
transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Our Company
does not have any variable interest entities whose financial
results are not included in the consolidated financial
statements.
We prepare our consolidated financial statements in conformity
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States of America. These principles require 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 consolidated financial statements
and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Our management reviews these estimates,
including but not limited to, purchased transportation,
recoverability of long-lived assets, recoverability of prepaid
expenses, valuation of investments, valuation allowances for
deferred taxes, and allowance for doubtful accounts, on a
regular basis and makes adjustments based on historical
experiences and existing and expected future conditions. These
evaluations are performed and adjustments are made as
information is available. Our management believes that these
estimates are reasonable and have been discussed with our audit
committee; however, actual results could differ from these
estimates.
Financial instruments, which potentially subject us to
concentrations of credit risk, are cash and cash equivalents and
accounts receivables.
The majority of cash is maintained with a Michigan financial
institution. Deposits with this bank may exceed the amount of
insurance provided on such deposits. Generally, these deposits
may be redeemed upon demand, and, therefore, bear minimal risk.
Concentration of credit risk with respect to trade receivables
is limited due to our large number of customers and wide range
of industries and locations served. No customer comprised more
than ten percent of the December 31, 2005 or 2004 customer
accounts receivable balance.
We receive a significant portion of our revenue from the
customers who operate within the U.S. domestic automotive
industry. Accordingly, our accounts receivable are comprised of
a large aggregate concentration of accounts from within this
industry. Recently, the U.S. automotive industry has been
in decline according to reports in various media sources. In the
event of further financial erosion by any of the Big
Three domestic automotive manufacturers, the effect on our
Company could be materially adverse. Further, the weakening of
any of the domestic automotive manufacturers can have an adverse
effect on a significant portion of our customer base which is
comprised in large part by manufacturers and suppliers for the
automotive industry.
We extend credit to various customers based on an evaluation of
the customers financial condition and their ability to pay
in accordance with our payment terms. We provide for estimated
losses on accounts receivable considering a number of factors,
including the overall aging of accounts receivables, customers
payment history and the customers current ability to pay
its obligation. Based upon our managements review of
accounts receivable and other receivables, an allowance for
doubtful accounts of approximately $732,000 and $966,000 is
considered necessary as of December 31, 2005 and 2004,
respectively. Although we believe our account receivables are
recorded at their net realizable value, a decline in our
historical collection rate could have a materially adverse
effect on our operations and net income. We do not accrue
interest on past due receivables.

For purposes of this table and Managements Discussion and
Analysis, interest expense and other income and expense has been
included within this caption, Sales, general and
administrative expenses. Interest expense for 2005 was
approximately $187,000, while interest expense for 2004 was
approximately $126,000. Other income in 2004 was approximately
$88,000. This presentation differs slightly from our financial
statement presentation. |
Revenues decreased approximately $2,633,000, or 6%, to
approximately $39,848,000 for the year ended December 31,
2005, as compared to approximately $42,481,000 for the year
ended December 31, 2004. The decrease in revenue primarily
relates to the disposal of certain unprofitable operations
during 2005, in conjunction our continued restructuring
activities. During 2005, we disposed of our Temple and Bullet
operations, as well as ceased activity at our unprofitable Tampa
brokerage. During 2005, we closed or otherwise disposed of
businesses which contributed approximately $4,715,000 in revenue
to our combined operations during the year ended
December 31, 2005. We anticipate mitigating this loss in
revenue through growth in our remaining Express-1 and Evansville
operations in future years.
Operating expenses, which consist primarily of payment for
trucking services, independent contractors, fuel, insurance,
cross dock facilities, equipment costs and payroll expenses
decreased by approximately $3,468,000, or 10%, to approximately
$30,852,000 for the year ended December 31, 2005, as
compared to approximately $34,320,000 for the period ended
December 31, 2004. As a percentage of revenues, operating
expenses amounted to approximately 77% of related revenues for
the year ended December 31, 2005, as compared with
approximately 81% for the year ended December 31, 2004.
Decreased operating expenses for the year resulted primarily
from the cessation of our unprofitable businesses associated
with our restructuring plan during 2005. During 2005, we
experienced a decrease in operating expenses within our
Express-1 operations, due to a shift in business away from our
carrier partners and an increase in the volume of freight
handled by our independent contractors. These decreases in
operating expenses were offset somewhat by an increase in costs
within our Express-1 operation, due to higher fuel costs in 2005
versus 2004. Within the Express-1 operation, fuel costs are
offset by fuel surcharges charged to customers. The fuel
surcharges are passed to the contractors through accessorial
payments at a rate close to 100% of the amount charged. We
anticipate continuing to decrease our operating expenses in
future periods as we focus on expedite transportation services
and continue to build our own capacity as opposed to purchasing
transportation services from third party carriers.
16
Total sales, general and administrative expense increased by
approximately $1,491,000 or 11% to approximately $14,811,000 for
the year ended December 31, 2005 as compared to
approximately $13,320,000 for the year ended December 31,
2004. The increase of general and administrative expenses
resulted primarily from our increase in restructuring charges of
approximately $1,880,000 to $4,448,000 for the year ended
December 31, 2005 from $2,568,000 for the year ended
December 31, 2004. As we continued with our restructuring
activities, the costs associated with exiting facilities,
reducing headcount and the disposal of assets became
increasingly larger. We anticipate further significant
reductions in selling, general and administrative expenses in
future periods as we have eliminated unnecessary costs and have
refocused our efforts on expedite transportation services. We do
not anticipate future charges associated with our restructuring
plan, at this time.
We realized a loss from operations before provisions for income
taxes of approximately $5,815,000 for the year ended
December 31, 2005, compared with a loss from operations
before provisions for income taxes of approximately $5,159,000
for the year ended December 31, 2004.
An income tax benefit was not recorded for 2005, due to our
Companys history of losses. An income tax benefit of
approximately $1,921,000 was recorded for the year ended
December 31, 2004. Differences between the effective tax
rate used for 2005 and 2004, as compared to the
U.S. federal statutory rate, are primarily due to permanent
differences and adjustments to the deferred tax asset valuation
allowance. As of December 31, 2005 we had federal and state
net operating loss carry-forwards totaling approximately
$8,752,000, which will begin to expire in 2021. In addition, we
have the potential to record approximately $2,073,000 in tax
assets related to the net loss from operations before tax for
2005. The amount and timing of any potential recovery will
depend upon our future profitability.
Basic loss per share from continuing operations for the year
ended December 31, 2005 was $.22, compared with a basic
loss of $.14 for the year ended December 31, 2004. Diluted
loss per share from continuing operations for the year ended
December 31, 2005 was $.22, compared with diluted earnings
per share of $.14 for the year ended December 31, 2004. For
purposes of calculating earnings per share data, diluted shares
are excluded from the calculation, as the effect of their
inclusion would be anti-dilutive on the measurement of earnings
per share.

Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and
Amortization |
EBITDA for the three months ended December 31, 2005 was
positive $910,000 compared to negative $440,000 in the
comparable period of the prior year. EBITDA for the twelve
months ended December 31, 2005 was positive $255,000
compared negative EBITDA of $1,211,000 in the comparable period
of the prior year. We define EBITDA as earnings before interest,
taxes, depreciation and amortization. In addition, we exclude
from our EBITDA calculation the cumulative effect of a change in
accounting principle, discontinued operations, and the impact of
restructuring and certain other charges, and include in the
EBITDA calculation selected financial data related to various
Company acquisitions. A reconciliation of EBITDA to the most
directly comparable GAAP financial measure is set forth herein.

The following selected data represents reporting
units within the Company and is primarily allocated based
on acquisitions, which is the basis for their respective
earn-out provisions. The subtotal entitled Core
Business represents the operations remaining after the
completion of the restructuring plan, and is intended only to
give the reader the ability to view what are now our ongoing
operations, exclusive of the closed operations. The columns
entitled Bullet and Temple and Other
represent services or location revenue and expenses that has
primarily been eliminated based on the restructuring plan
implemented in the fourth quarter of 2004. Neither
Evansville Dedicated, Bullet and Temple,
or Other met the quantitative criteria in 2004 or
2005 required for segment reporting.

Use of GAAP and Non-GAAP Measures |
In addition to results presented in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles (GAAP), we have
included in this report EBITDA with EBITDA being
defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and
amortization and excluding the cumulative effect of a change in
accounting principle, discontinued operations, and the impact of
restructuring and other charges. We have also included some
selected financial data related to the various acquisitions and
operating locations. For each non-GAAP financial measure, we
have presented the most directly comparable GAAP financial
measure and reconciled the non-GAAP financial measure with such
comparable GAAP financial measure.
These non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to
investors to assist in understanding the underlying operational
performance of our company. Specifically, EBITDA is a useful
measure of operating performance before the impact of investing
and financing transactions, making comparisons between
companies earnings power more meaningful and providing
consistent period-over-period comparisons of our Companys
performance. In addition, we use these non-GAAP financial
measures internally to measure our on-going business performance
and in reports to bankers to permit monitoring of our ability to
pay outstanding liabilities.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
As of December 31, 2005, the Company has approximately
$1,342,000 of working capital and had cash and cash equivalents
of approximately $386,000, compared with approximately $854,000
of cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 2004.
In conjunction with the preparation of these statements and to
further analyze the ability of our operations to generate future
operating cash flow, we evaluated our historical performance, as
well as our expected performance for the full year of 2006, as a
basis for determining whether our Company should be considered
to have operational, liquidity and other concerns that might
raise doubts about our continuance and ability to meet future
financial obligations. Among the items considered in this
analysis were the historical losses, the profitability of our
operations within the last quarter of 2005, the significance of
the restructuring charges, the completeness of the
restructuring, the historical performance of our expedited
(Express-1) and
dedicated operations and the availability and adequacy of our
liquidity and capital resources. In the opinion of our
management, based upon the above analysis, our Company should be
considered as a going concern.
During the year ended December 31, 2005, cash decreased by
approximately $468,000. During this same time we completed
payments related to previous acquisitions of approximately
$1,602,000, reduced indebtedness by approximately $499,000 and
reduced the balance owed by us to outside parties for accounts
payable and other accrued expenses by approximately $1,713,000.
For 2005, we generated operational losses which were primarily
offset by: (i) the significant decrease in the accounts
receivable associated with our restructuring of approximately
$3,118,000; (ii) the sale of the Lexington facility;
(iii) the $3,958,000 of non-cash impairments recorded
during the period and (iv) the extension of credit
facilities to the buyers of our pickup and delivery operations
of approximately $400,000. We anticipate funding future revenue
growth primarily through operations and the line of credit.
To ensure that our Company has adequate near-term liquidity, our
wholly owned operating subsidiary, Express-1, Inc. (Express-1)
entered into new agreements in November 2005 with a Michigan
banking corporation (the Bank), under which the Bank
extended an asset-based line of credit to Express-1 with
Segmentz acting as guarantor. Under the loan documents,
Express-1 may draw down under the line of credit the lesser of
$6,000,000 or 80% of the eligible accounts receivable of
Express-1, plus $800,000. The additional $800,000 is available
based upon the granting of a security interest in our Buchanan,
Michigan facility and further subject to the retirement of the
existing mortgage on this same facility. All obligations of
Express-1 under the agreements are secured by the accounts
receivable of Express-1, Inc. Segmentz entered into agreements
providing for a guaranty of the obligations of Express-1 under
the loan documents. All advances under the agreement are subject
to interest at the rate of the Banks prime plus an
applicable margin that ranges from negative 0.50% to positive
0.25% based upon the performance of Segmentz in the preceding
quarter. Interest is payable monthly. The maturity date of the
loan is November 15, 2007. The line contains various
covenants pertaining to the maintenance of certain financial
ratios. As of December 31, 2005, we have available
borrowing capacity of approximately $1.4 million, and an
effective interest rate of 7.00%. We were in compliance with all
terms and conditions of the Bank agreement, as of
December 31, 2005.

We may receive proceeds in the future from the exercise of
warrants and options outstanding as of December 31, 2005 in

Our strategy is to continue to expand organically through our
Express-1 and Evansville operations. To compliment this organic
growth, we will consider acquisitions, on occasion. Potential
acquisitions will be considered to the extent they compliment
our focus on expedited operations and can become immediately
accretive to our earnings. Our ability to implement our growth
strategy will depend on a number of things, which may be beyond
our control and there can be no assurance we will be successful
in producing growth. Our ability to continue to grow may depend
somewhat on our ability to obtain adequate financing. We may not
be able to obtain financing on favorable terms.

Payments are listed in the year they would be paid and some
portions of the payments can be paid in cash or stock. |
As of December 31, 2005, we accrued $1,710,000 related to
the above contingent consideration as the contractual contingent
criteria was achieved, during 2005.
We will be required to make significant payments in the future
if the contingent consideration installments under our various
acquisitions become due. While we believe that a significant
portion of the required payments will be generated by the
acquired subsidiaries, we may have to secure additional sources
of capital to fund some portion of the contingent consideration
payments as they become due. This presents us with certain
business risks relative to the availability and pricing of
future fund raising, as well as the potential dilution to our
stockholders if the fund raising involves the sale of equity.
These contingent consideration amounts are tied directly to the
operational performance of Express-1, mitigating some of the
risks that might exist for contingent payments tied to other
performance indicators. We will examine the annual benchmarks
for each contingent consideration payment and will reserve any
potential funds due under these agreements at the end of each
period when the pro-rated annual benchmark is achieved for that
period.
NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board
(FASB) issued FASB Statement No. 123 (revised 2004),
Share-Based Payment, which is a revision of FASB Statement
No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation.
Statement 123(R) supersedes APB Opinion No. 25,
Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and amends FASB
Statement No. 95, Statement of Cash Flows. Generally, the
approach in Statement 123(R) is similar to the approach
described in Statement 123. However, State-
21
ment 123(R) requires all share-based payments to employees,
including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in
the income statement based on their fair values. Pro forma
disclosure is no longer an alternative.
As permitted by Statement 123, prior to January 1,
2006 we accounted for share-based payments to employees using
Opinion 25s intrinsic value method and, as such,
recognized no compensation cost for employee stock options. Had
we adopted Statement 123(R) in prior periods, the impact of
that standard would have approximated the impact of
Statement 123 as described in the notes to the consolidated
financial statements in prior periods.
We will adopt Statement 123(R) effective January 1,
2006 using the modified prospective method.
Statement 123(R) also requires the benefits of tax
deductions in excess of recognized compensation cost to be
reported as a financing cash flow, rather than as an operating
cash flow as required under the current literature. This
requirement will reduce net operating cash flow and increase net
financing cash flows in periods after adoption. We cannot
reasonably estimate what those amounts will be in the future
(because they depend on, among other things, when employees
exercise stock options).

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
Board of Directors
Segmentz, Inc.
Tampa, Florida
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of
Segmentz, Inc as of December 31, 2005 and 2004 and the
related consolidated statements of operations, changes in
stockholders equity, and cash flows for the years, then
ended. These consolidated financial statements are the
responsibility of the management of Segmentz, Inc. 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 audits 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 Companys 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 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
consolidated financial position of Segmentz, Inc. as of
December 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004 and the
results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then
ended in conformity with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America.

Segmentz, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004
|

1. |
Significant Accounting Principles |
Basis of Presentation
Segmentz, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries (the
Company) provide transportation and logistics services to
over 1,000 active customers, specializing in time definite
transportation and offer a variety of exclusive use vehicles,
providing reliable same day or high priority service to
customers within the United States and portions of Canada.
Services include expedited surface transportation, aircraft
charters and dedicated expedite delivery.
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the
accounts of Segmentz, Inc. and all of its wholly owned
subsidiaries. All significant inter-company balances and
transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company
does not have any variable interest entities whose financial
results are not included in the consolidated financial
statements.
Use of Estimates
The Company prepares its consolidated financial statements in
conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America. These principles require management to
make estimates and assumptions that impact the reported amounts
of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets
and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses
during the reporting period. The Company reviews its estimates,
including but not limited to, purchased transportation,
recoverability of long-lived assets, recoverability of prepaid
expenses, valuation allowances for deferred taxes, valuation of
investments and allowance for doubtful accounts, on a regular
basis and makes adjustments based on historical experiences and
existing and expected future conditions. These evaluations are
performed and adjustments are made as information is available.
Management believes that these estimates are reasonable and have
been discussed with the audit committee; however, actual results
could differ from these estimates.
Reclassifications
Certain prior year amounts shown in the accompanying
consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to
conform to the 2005 presentation. In addition, adjustments to
estimates and purchase price allocations related to business
acquisitions in 2004 have been reclassified for comparable
presentation. These reclassifications did not have any effect on
total assets, total liabilities, total stockholders equity
or net income.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and, on occasion,
short term investments. The Company considers all highly liquid
instruments purchased with a remaining maturity of less than
three months at the time of purchase as cash equivalents.
Concentration of Risk
Financial instruments, which potentially subject the Company to
concentrations of credit risk, are cash and cash equivalents and
accounts receivables.
The majority of cash is maintained with a financial institution
located within in the United States. Deposits with this bank may
exceed the amount of insurance provided on such deposits.
Generally, these deposits may be redeemed upon demand, and,
therefore, bear minimal risk.
F-7
Segmentz, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial
Statements (Continued)
Concentration of credit risk with respect to trade receivables
from any one customer is limited due to the Companys large
number of customers and wide range of industries and locations
served. One of its customers, a domestic automotive
manufacturer, accounted for approximately 16% of the
Companys revenues in fiscal 2005. The Company has a
significant concentration of credit risk associated with its
aggregate of customer account receivables originating from the
domestic automotive industry. For the year ended
December 31, 2005, the Company generated approximately 27%
of its consolidated revenue from the Big Three
U.S. automotive manufacturers. The concentration is
comprised not only of domestic automotive manufacturers (the
U.S. Big Three), but also extends to major automotive
industry suppliers.
The Company extends credit to its various customers based on
evaluation of the customers financial condition and
ability to pay the Company in accordance with the payment terms.
The Company provides for estimated losses on accounts receivable
considering a number of factors, including the overall aging of
accounts receivables, customers payment history and the
customers current ability to pay its obligation. Based on
managements review of accounts receivable and other
receivables, an allowance for doubtful accounts of approximately
$732,000 and $966,000 is considered necessary as of
December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. We do not accrue
interest on past due receivables.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost. Expenditures for
maintenance and repair costs are expensed as incurred. Major
improvements that increase the estimated useful life of an asset
are capitalized. When property and equipment are sold or
otherwise disposed of, the asset account and related accumulated
depreciation account are relieved, and any gain or loss is
included in the results of operations. Depreciation is
calculated by the straight-line method over the following
estimated useful lives of the related assets:

Goodwill
Goodwill consists of the excess of cost over the fair value of
net assets acquired in business combinations. The Company
follows the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards (SFAS) No. 142, Goodwill and Other
Intangible Assets. SFAS No. 142 requires an annual
impairment test for goodwill and intangible assets with
indefinite lives. Under the provisions of
SFAS No. 142, the first step of the impairment test
requires that the Company determine the fair value of each
reporting unit, and compare the fair value to the reporting
units carrying amount. To the extent a reporting
units carrying amount exceeds its fair value, an
indication exists that the reporting units goodwill may be
impaired and the Company must perform a second more detailed
impairment assessment. The second impairment assessment involves
allocating the reporting units fair value to all of its
recognized and unrecognized assets and liabilities in order to
determine the implied fair value of the reporting units
goodwill as of the assessment date. The implied fair value of
the reporting units goodwill is then compared to the
carrying amount of goodwill to quantify an impairment charge as
of the assessment date. For the year December 31, 2004, the
Company recognized impairments of approximately $85,000, for
goodwill related to activities of its Frontline operation. For
the year ended December 31, 2005, the Company wrote-off
approximately $922,000 of goodwill in conjunction with its
restructuring activities. There
F-8
Segmentz, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial
Statements (Continued)
was no impairment of goodwill associated with the Companys
remaining operations, for the year ended December 31, 2005.
In the future, the Company will perform the annual test during
its fiscal third quarter unless events or circumstances indicate
impairment of the goodwill may have occurred before that time.
Identified Intangible Assets
The Company follows the provisions of SFAS No. 144,
Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived
Assets, which establishes accounting standards for the
impairment of long-lived assets such as property, plant and
equipment and intangible assets subject to amortization. The
Company reviews long-lived assets to be held-and-used for
impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate
that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable.
If the sum of the undiscounted expected future cash flows over
the remaining useful life of a long-lived asset is less than its
carrying amount, the asset is considered to be impaired.
Impairment losses are measured as the amount by which the
carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the
asset. When fair values are not available, the Company estimates
fair value using the expected future cash flows discounted at a
rate commensurate with the risks associated with the recovery of
the asset. For the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004
there were impairments of identified intangible assets of
approximately $1,088,000 and $365,000 respectively, primarily
related to the Companys restructuring plan.
Other Long-Term Assets
Other long-term assets primarily consist of balances
representing various deposits, costs associated with the
set-up of the
Companys Evansville operations and the long-term portion
of the Companys non-qualified deferred compensation plan.
Estimated Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The aggregated net fair value estimates discussed herein are
based upon certain market assumptions and pertinent information
available to management. The respective carrying value of
certain on-balance-sheet financial instruments approximated
their fair values. These financial instruments include cash and
cash equivalents, receivables, payables, accrued expenses and
short-term borrowings. Fair values were assumed to approximate
carrying values for these financial instruments since they are
short-term in nature and their carrying amounts approximate fair
values or they are receivable or payable on demand. The fair
value of the Companys debt is estimated based upon the
quoted market prices for the same or similar issues or on the
current rates offered to the Company for debt of similar
maturities.
Revenue Recognition
Operating revenues for the Company are recognized on the date
the freight is delivered or the services are performed. Related
costs of delivery of shipments are accrued as incurred and
expensed when the revenue is recognized.
Income Taxes
Taxes on income are provided in accordance with
SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes.
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for
the expected future tax consequences of events that have been
reflected in the consolidated financial statements. Deferred tax
assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences
between the book values and the tax basis of particular assets
and liabilities in addition to the tax effects of net operating
loss and capital loss carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and
liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to
apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary
differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect
on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in the tax
rate is recognized as income or expense in the period that
included the
F-9
Segmentz, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial
Statements (Continued)
enactment date. A valuation allowance is provided to offset the
net deferred tax assets if, based upon the available evidence,
it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax
assets will not be realized. During the year ended
December 31, 2005, the Company elected not to record an
increase in its deferred tax asset related its results of
operations in 2005. This decision was based upon the
Companys historical lack of profitability. In the event
the Company is successful in its restructuring efforts and is
profitable in 2006, the potential to record an additional
deferred tax asset related to the Companys Net Loss in
2005, will be re-evaluated. The valuation allowance related to
the 2005 net operating loss is approximately $2,073,000. In
the event it is realized at a future date, it will be treated as
an increase in deferred tax assets and an increase in income.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company accounts for stock based compensation under the
intrinsic value method of accounting for stock based
compensation and has disclosed pro forma net income and earnings
per share amounts using the fair value based method prescribed
by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
(SFAS) No. 123, Accounting for Stock Based
Compensation. The Company has implemented the disclosure
provisions of SFAS No. 148, Accounting for
Stock-Based Compensation Transition and
Disclosure.

The preceding pro forma results were calculated with the use of
the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The following
assumptions were used for the years ended December 31, 2005
and 2004: (1) risk-free interest rates ranging from 2.80%
to 4.35%, (2) no dividend yield (3) expected lives of
between 3.0 and 5.0 years (4) volatility of 35% to
85%. Results may vary depending on the assumptions applied
within the model. Compensation expense recognized in providing
pro forma disclosures may not be representative of the effects
on net income for future years.
Earnings per Share
Earnings per common share are computed in accordance with
SFAS No. 128, Earnings Per Share, which
requires companies to present basic earnings per share and
diluted earnings per share. Basic earnings per share are
computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number
of shares of common stock
F-10
Segmentz, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial
Statements (Continued)
outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings per common share
are computed by dividing net income by the weighted average
number of shares of common stock outstanding and dilutive
options outstanding during the year. The weighted average number
of shares was 26,523,650 and 23,935,768 for the years ended
December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. The diluted
weighted average number of shares was 26,536,412 and 24,730,411
for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004,
respectively.
Common stock equivalents for the years ended December 31,
2005 and 2004 were anti-dilutive due to the net losses sustained
by the Company during these periods. Therefore, the diluted
weighted average common shares outstanding for the dilutive
weighted average share calculation in this period excludes
approximately 12,762 and 794,643 shares for 2005 and 2004
respectively, that could dilute earnings per share in future
periods.
Recently Issued Financial Accounting Standards
In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board
(FASB) issued FASB Statement No. 123 (revised 2004),
Share-Based Payment, which is a revision of FASB Statement
No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation.
Statement 123(R) supersedes APB Opinion No. 25,
Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and amends FASB
Statement No. 95, Statement of Cash Flows. Generally, the
approach in Statement 123(R) is similar to the approach
described in Statement 123. However, Statement 123(R)
requires all share-based payments to employees, including grants
of employee stock options, to be recognized in the income
statement based on their fair values. Pro forma disclosure is no
longer an alternative.
As permitted by Statement 123, prior to January 1,
2006 the Company accounted for share-based payments to employees
using Opinion 25s intrinsic value method and, as such,
recognized no compensation cost for employee stock options. Had
the Company adopted Statement 123(R) in prior periods, the
impact of that standard would have approximated the impact of
Statement 123 as described in the notes to the consolidated
financial statements in prior periods.
The Company will adopt Statement 123(R) effective
January 1, 2006 using the modified prospective method.
Statement 123(R) also requires the benefits of tax
deductions in excess of recognized compensation cost to be
reported as a financing cash flow, rather than as an operating
cash flow as required under the current literature. This
requirement will reduce net operating cash flow and increase net
financing cash flows in periods after adoption. The Company
cannot reasonably estimate what those amounts will be in the
future (because they depend on, among other things, when
employees exercise stock options).
In the third quarter of 2004, shortly after the acquisition of
Express-1, Inc., the Companys Board of Directors and
management team initiated a restructuring plan (the
Plan), with the intent of creating a sustainable
operating model. The Plan called for the closing of the
Companys unprofitable companies, operations and locations.
It also refocused the Company on its profitable expedited
transportation businesses. Throughout the fall of 2004, the
Company exited its
airport-to-airport
business and consolidated its Dasher operations into its other
expedite operations. Continuing this restructuring activity in
2005, the Company exited its Tampa brokerage activities in
addition to its Temple and Bullet operations. The Company also
relocated its executive offices from Tampa, Florida to Buchanan,
Michigan. The table below outlines the timeline and activities
involved in the Plan.

The Company accounted for its restructuring activities in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and
accordingly recognized impairment for assets and leases no
longer used in its operations. The Company recorded impairments
and subsequent write-offs for goodwill and intangibles as well
as established reserves for account receivables that became
doubtful in conjunction with the ceased operations. The Company
also recorded severance expenses related to payments to
employees for positions that were eliminated due to the
restructuring.
Net lease payments associated with closed locations over the
next four years related to the Plan will be approximately
$70,000, $53,000, $56,000 and $33,000 for 2006, 2007, 2008 and
2009, respectively. The Company has accrued the rental payments
for these leases, less the amount of any sublease rental
payments it expects to receive.
During the third quarter of 2005, the Company completed
substantially all of its restructuring initiatives. Remaining
after the completion of the Plan were its Express-1 expedite
transportation operations headquartered in Buchanan, Michigan
and its dedicated expedited transportation operation located in
Evansville, Indiana. These operations are complimentary and
provide the Company with a core base of focused transportation
services.

Depreciation and amortization expense of property and equipment
totaled approximately $933,000 and $822,000 for 2005 and 2004,
respectively.
Included within the captions labeled Revenue
equipment, Warehouse equipment and
Computer software are capitalized leases with gross
amounts of approximately $575,000, $27,000 and $93,000 and
accumulated amortization, through the year ended
December 31, 2005, of approximately $188,000, $9,000 and
$81,000, respectively.
Advances primarily relate to loans made to certain employees and
former employees of the Company, which were satisfied in 2005.
In conjunction with its restructuring activities and the related
disposal of its Temple and Bullet operations, the Company
entered into loans with the buyers of each of these operations.
The Temple operations were sold to Temple Trucking Services, Inc
(TTSI) and the operations of Bullet were sold to Bullet
Freight Systems (BFS). Both TTSI and BFS were companies newly
formed by unrelated third parties specifically to facilitate
their individual purchases of our operations. The Company
provided the buyers of each of the two disposed companies with a
line of credit, and a loan to finance their purchase of the
assets.
In July 2005, the Company provided TTSI with a $250,000 line of
credit facility bearing interest at the rate of 6% per
annum payable in sixty equal monthly payments of principal and
interest commencing in July 2006. Draws upon this line by TTSI
must be made before June 30, 2006. The Company also sold
certain of its operational assets to TTSI in exchange for a
$105,000 note with a term of sixty months bearing interest at
the rate of 6% per annum. The $105,000 equipment note was
satisfied by TTSI, prior to December 31, 2005. The company
recognized a loss of approximately $32,000 associated with the
satisfaction of this loan.
In August 2005, the Company provided BFS with a $200,000 line of
credit bearing interest at the rate of 6% per annum payable
in sixty equal monthly payments of principal and interest
commencing in August 2007. Draws upon this line by BFS must be
made before July 31, 2006. The Company also sold a portion
of its pickup and delivery assets to BFS in exchange for a
$33,000 note with a term of sixty months bearing interest at the
rate of 6% per annum. On March 27, 2006, the Company
executed a settlement agreement with BFS and its owners whereby
the Company accepted $150,000 in cash as payment in full on the
BFS note and credit facility.

Revolving Credit Facilities |
In November 2005, the Company entered into an agreement with a
Michigan banking corporation (the Bank), under which
the Bank extended an asset-based line of credit to the Company,
through its wholly owned subsidiary, Express-1, Inc with
Segmentz acting as guarantor. Under the terms of the agreement,
the Company may draw down amounts under the facility not to
exceed $6.0 million in the aggregate, at interest rates
that are based upon the Banks prime lending rate. The
amount that may be drawn at any time is limited to the lesser of
the $6.0 million limit or 80% of eligible accounts
receivable, plus $800,000. Segmentz assets pledged as collateral
for the borrowing base include trade accounts receivable and the
real property located at 429 Post Road in Buchanan, Michigan. As
of December 31, 2005, availability under the facility was
approximately $1.4 million. The rate of interest charged on
this facility as of December 31, 2005 was 7.0%,
F-15
Segmentz, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial
Statements (Continued)
based upon the Companys financial results. The new
facility matures on November 15, 2007. The Company was in
compliance with all terms and conditions of the facility, as of
December 31, 2005.
The Companys former line of credit, which was retired in
November 2005, upon the execution of the new line of credit, was
with a Michigan banking corporation. The agreement provided for
the extension of an asset-based line of credit to the Company.
Under the Loan Documents, the Company could draw down under the
line of credit the lesser of $3,500,000 or 80% of its eligible
accounts receivable. All obligations of the Company under the
agreements were secured by the accounts receivable of the
Company and its subsidiary Express-1 which entered into
agreements providing for a guaranty of the obligations of the
Company under the Loan Documents, which guaranty was secured by
the accounts receivable of Express-1, Inc. All advances under
the Loan Documents were subject to interest at the rate of the
one-month LIBOR plus 3.0%, payable monthly. The maturity date of
the loan was July 1, 2005, which was extended through
December 31, 2005. The facility contained various covenants
pertaining to the maintenance of certain financial ratios. For
some of 2005, the Company was not in compliance with two of
these ratios.

Lease Commitments
The following is a schedule by year of future minimum payments
required under operating leases that have an initial or
remaining non-cancelable lease term in excess of one year as of
December 31, 2005. The leases have been further classified
into categories depending upon whether the lease is for a
location currently used within the Companys operations or
is for closed locations. The future minimum lease payments for
all closed locations have been recorded as a liability on the
Companys balance sheet as of December 31, 2005. The
amount has been recorded net of anticipated sublease revenue the
Company expects to receive over the remaining lease terms.

preferred stock convertible at the time of such vote.
In the event of any distribution or liquidation event, the
holders of the then outstanding Series A Preferred Stock
shall receive a pro-rata distribution to be determined by
performing a fictional conversion into common stock, and
determining the pro-rata distribution of such proceeds on the
basis as-if
converted which is subordinate in classification to any
debt classes which may be outstanding at the time of such
events. No shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock
were outstanding as of December 31, 2005 and 2004.
Series B Convertible Preferred Stock
Each share of Series B Preferred Stock is convertible, at

addition the holder has voting rights and preferred liquidation
rights. No shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock
were outstanding as of December 31, 2005 and 2004.

Segmentz, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial
Statements (Continued)
The Company has completed five business acquisitions since its
inception. In addition, in January 2004, the Company purchased
certain assets of Frontline Freight and subsequently disposed of
these assets prior to the end of 2004. These acquisitions have
been completed through various terms and arrangements and
represent both stock purchases as well as asset purchases.
In September 2004, the Company amended the Dasher purchase
agreement to alter the tax treatment and align the conditional
consideration payments with the recently purchased Express-1,
Incs conditional consideration payments. The Company paid
approximately $265,000 to the former owners of Dasher Express
Inc. and incurred approximately $35,000 of additional
acquisition costs. The total purchase price includes acquisition
costs of approximately $85,000, but excludes the contingent
consideration, which was $2,350,000. The table following in this
footnote summarizes the allocation of the approximate purchase
price based on managements estimate of the fair value of
assets acquired and liabilities assumed.
In August 2004, the Company acquired all of the issued and
outstanding stock of Express-1, Inc. (Express-1), a privately
owned provider of expedited transportation services. The stock
of Express-1, Inc. was acquired from 5 nonaffiliated individual
shareholders. Prior to the closing of the transaction, the
Company had no material relationship with any of the selling
shareholders.
The purchase price for the stock of Express-1, Inc., included a
$6,000,000 cash payment, the issuance of 50,000 shares of
restricted common stock of the Company, and the issuance of
warrants to purchase 500,000 shares of common stock of
the Company at an exercise price of $1.75 per share and
2,428,571 warrants at an exercise price of $1.75 per share
and becoming exercisable during various periods over the
subsequent four years. The consideration also included a
provision under which the Company could be required to make
conditional payments of up to an additional $6,500,000 in cash
and restricted common stock to the selling shareholders over the
following 3 years, depending on the performance of the
acquired company. The estimated purchase price was approximately
$6,713,000, which includes acquisition costs of approximately
$378,000 and additional tax payments to the former owners of
approximately $200,000 but excludes the contingent
consideration. The table following in this footnote summarizes
the allocation of the approximate purchase price based on
managements estimate of the fair value of assets acquired
and liabilities assumed.
In October 2004, the Company purchased certain assets and
assumed certain liabilities of Temple Trucking, Inc., a
privately owned provider of third party logistics services. The
purchase price of Temple Trucking Inc. included the issuance of
295,000 common shares of restricted common stock of the Company
and the assumption of $820,000 of debt owed to the Company. The
consideration also included contingent consideration provisions
under which the Company could pay up to an additional $500,000
in cash or restricted common stock over the following
3 years, depending on the performance of the acquired
company. The table following in this footnote summarizes the
allocation of the approximate purchase price based on
managements estimate of the fair value of assets acquired
and liabilities assumed.

A valuation allowance is provided when it is more likely than
not that some portion of the deferred tax asset will not be
realized. Since we have had cumulative losses in recent years,
the guidance suggests that we should not look to future earnings
to support the realization of the net deferred tax asset.
Accordingly, a valuation allowance of $2,073,000 was considered
necessary at December 31, 2005.
As of December 31, 2005, the Company had federal and state
net operating loss carry-forwards totaling approximately
$8,752,000 which begin expiring in 2021.

Related Party Transactions |
In August of 2004, the Company acquired Express-1, Inc. and
agreed to purchase the building located at 429 Post Road,
Buchanan, Michigan for $850,000 in cash or through the
assumption of the current mortgage and cash. The Company also
agreed to rent the building on a
month-to-month basis,
for monthly rental payments of ten thousand ($10,000) dollars on
a triple net basis until the purchase is completed. For the
years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 rent in the
amounts of approximately $40,000 and $50,000 respectively was
paid as rent for the building, to the former owners of
Express-1, including certain officers of the Company. In May of
2005, the Company purchased the Buchanan facility, located at
429 Post Road, for approximately $850,000.
During 2005, the Company transferred ownership in stock and
marketable securities valued at $200,000 to its former CEO as

Employee Benefit Plans |
The Company has a defined contribution 401(k) salary reduction
plan intended to qualify under section 401(a) of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (Salary Savings Plan).
The Salary Savings Plan allows eligible employees, as defined in
the plan document, to defer up to fifteen percent of their
eligible compensation, with the Company contributing an amount
determined at the discretion of the Companys Board of
Directors. The Company contributed approximately $27,000 and
$127,000 to the Salary Savings Plan for the year ended
December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively.
The Company also maintains a Non-qualified Deferred Compensation
Plan for certain employees. This plan allows participants to
defer a portion of their salary on a pretax basis and accumulate
tax-deferred earnings plus interest. The Company provides a
matching contribution of 25 percent of the employee
contribution, subject to a maximum Company contribution of
$2,500 per employee. These deferrals are in addition to
those allowed in the Companys 401(k) plans. The
Companys matching contribution expense from continuing
operations for such plans was approximately $5,000 and $4,000
for the year ended December 31, 2005 and 2004. In addition
the Company contributed $120,000 to the plan to fulfill
contractual obligations to executives.
In 2004, the Company established an Employee Stock Ownership
Plan (ESOP) for all employees. The plan only allows
employer contributions, which is at the sole discretion of the
board of directors. To be eligible to receive contributions the
employee must complete one year of full time service and be
employed on the last day of the year. Contributions to the plan
vest over a five-year period. The Company recognized
compensation expense related to the ESOP of approximately
$30,000 based on shares allocated to employees (the shares
allocated method) for the year ended December 31,
2004. In December 2005, the Companys Board of Directors
approved a contribution to the ESOP plan of 50,000 shares
of the Companys stock, to be effectuated as soon as
practical. Accordingly, the Company has accrued approximately
$37,000 at December 31, 2005 to cover this commitment.

Employment Agreements |
The Company has in place with certain of its executives
employment agreements calling for payments totaling $804,000,
$562,000, and $295,000 for the years ending December 31,
2006, 2007,and 2008. These contracts vary in length and terms,
but provide for continuity of employment pending termination
for cause for the covered employees.
In March 2006, the Company entered into a settlement agreement
with the buyers (BFS) of the Companys former Bullet
operations whereby the Company agreed to accept the amount of
$150,000 in cash from BFS as full settlement of the notes
between the Company, BFS and the individual stockholders of BFS.
The Company had a balance of approximately $235,000 recorded as
a receivable on December 31, 2005 for these obligations.
In March 2006, the Company paid to the former owners of Dasher
and Express-1 cash of $1,460,000 and issued 258,799 shares
of stock as settlement of its contingent consideration payments
on these two acquisitions. On December 31, 2005, the
Company had recorded a liability of $1,710,000 in anticipation
of this payment.
