Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
On June 15, 2011, DecisionPoint Systems, Inc. formerly known as Comamtech, Inc. (the "Company”), entered into a Plan of Arrangement (the “Plan of Arrangement”) and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) among the Company, 2259736 Ontario Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Comamtech which was incorporated under the laws of the Province of Ontario, Canada (the “Purchaser”) and DecisionPoint Systems, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Old DecisionPoint”). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement and Plan of Arrangement under Section 182 of the Ontario Business Corporation Act, on June 15, 2011 (the “Effective Date”), Old DecisionPoint merged (the “Merger”) into the Purchaser becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. In connection with the Merger, the Company changed its name to DecisionPoint Systems, Inc. and the Purchaser changed its name to DecisionPoint Systems International, Inc. (hereinafter referred to as “DecisionPoint Systems International”).
The Company’s common stock is quoted on the OTC Pink Market under the symbol “COMT”. As of June 22, 2011, the Company’s symbol will be "DPSI". The Merger Agreement contains customary terms and conditions for a transaction of this type, including representations, warranties and covenants, as well as provisions describing the Merger consideration, the process of exchanging the consideration and the effect of the Merger.
The Merger Agreement and the transactions set forth therein were approved by each of the respective Boards of Directors and the shareholders of both the Company and Old DecisionPoint and were also approved by the Ontario Superior Court of Justice.

Item 2.01 Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets
Information in response to this Item 2.01 is keyed to the Item numbers of Form 10.
Item 1. Description of Business
As described in Item 1.01 above, on the Effective Date, pursuant to the Plan of Arrangement and Merger Agreement, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Old DecisionPoint from its shareholders in exchange for 4,593,660 shares of the Company's common stock. The Company also acquired all the issued and outstanding Series A cumulative Convertible Preferred Shares and Series B Cumulative Convertible Preferred Shares in exchange for 243,750 and 118,750 Cumulative Convertible Preferred Shares, respectively. After the Merger, there are 6,934,412 shares of the Company's common stock outstanding and 243,750 and 118,750 shares of the Company's Series A Cumulative Convertible Preferred Shares and Series B Cumulative Convertible Preferred Shares outstanding, respectively. Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, the Company assumed all the of DecisionPoint's obligations under their outstanding stock option plans and warrant agreements. As a result of the Merger, Old DecisionPoint merged into the Purchaser and became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. Additionally, as a result of the Merger, Old DecisionPoint’s current management became the management of the Company.
Prior to the Merger, the Company was a “shell company” (as such term is defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended). The acquisition of Old DecisionPoint is treated as a reverse recapitalization and the business of Old DecisionPoint became the business of the Company. At the time of the Merger, the Company was not engaged in any active business. References to “we,” “us,” “our” and similar words refer to Old DecisionPoint and the Company after the Merger.
Summary
We design, implement, and support mobile computing and wireless systems, and supply chain solutions for our customers which they use to deliver improved productivity and better customer service to their customers. We provide systems and solutions that include a) professional services for system and solution design and implementation, and ongoing equipment and system support; b) hardware products, hardware maintenance, software products, and software maintenance sourced from suppliers and wholesale distributors; and c) software and software maintenance developed internally. We provide value to our customers by giving them the capability to make better, faster and more accurate business decisions. It is these mobile computing and wireless systems that empower people with the information to improve the hundreds of individual business decisions they make each day.
We are able to provide our customers with everything they need to bring their ideas to reality by using the specialized skills and knowledge of our staff. The range of our offerings include consulting and design services, technical and programming services, mobile computing, and wireless and RFID hardware, software, and support services to carry it out. Customers are looking for mobile computing and wireless systems, and supply chain solutions that range from the design, implementation and support of hardware, software and professional services. Systems and solutions continue to be developed with an ‘out-of–the box and one-stop shop’ approach to mobile computing and wireless systems. Our core business and experience working with suppliers of equipment, independent software vendors, and developing solutions for our customers has enabled us to continuously expand and broaden our solutions and services for our customers. We continuously look for opportunities to help our customers relating to our core competencies. Our ongoing involvement with technological changes of equipment and software positions us to expand our professional services business and provide solutions for customers to improve their operations.
We are focused on several markets. These include retail, manufacturing, distribution, transportation and logistics. We are also increasingly focused on the markets for these systems in the markets where there are large groups of field services workers. These markets include maintenance and repair, inspections, deliveries, and other specialized business services such as uniform rental. This part of our business did not exist a few years ago. But with the continued growth of the mobile internet, we expect to add resources in this area in order to take advantage of the increasing opportunities. We expect our customers to continue to embrace and deploy new technology to enhance their own customers’ experience with business and improve their own operations to lower their operating costs and better service their customers. Our expertise and understanding of our customers’ operations and operations of businesses in general coupled with our expertise and understanding of new technology for equipment and software offerings enables us to identify new trends and opportunities to implement new solutions to our existing and potential customers.
Our executive officers are located at 19655 Descartes, Foothill Ranch, CA 92610-2609 and our telephone number is (949) 465-0065.
RISK FACTORS
An investment in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. In determining whether to purchase our common stock, an investor should carefully consider all of the material risks described below, together with the other information contained in this report. An investor should only purchase our securities if he or she can afford to suffer the loss of his or her entire investment.
RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESS
The RFID industry is characterized by rapid technological change, and our success depends upon the frequent enhancement of existing products and timely introduction of new products that meet our customers’ needs.
Customer requirements for RFID products are rapidly evolving and technological changes in our industry occur rapidly. To keep up with new customer requirements and distinguish us from our competitors, we must frequently introduce new products and enhancements of existing products. Enhancing existing products and developing new products is a complex and uncertain process. It often requires significant investments in research and development (“R&D”). We may not have adequate resources to invest in R&D that will keep pace with technological changes in our industry. Even if we made adequate investments in R&D, they may not result in products attractive or acceptable to our customers. Furthermore, we may not be able to launch new or improved products before our competition launches comparable products. Any of these factors could cause our business or financial results to suffer.
Our recent acquisition of CMAC Inc., and other future business combinations and acquisition transactions may not succeed in generating the intended benefits and may, therefore, adversely affect shareholder value or our financial results. Integration of new businesses or technologies into our business may have any of the following adverse effects:
|
●
|
we may have difficulty transitioning customers and other business relationships.
|
|
●
|
we may have problems unifying management following a transaction.
|
|
●
|
we may lose key employees from our existing or acquired businesses.
|
|
●
|
we may experience intensified competition from other companies seeking to expand sales and market share during the integration period.
|
|
●
|
our management’s attention may be diverted to the assimilation of the technology and personnel of acquired businesses or new product or service lines.
|
|
●
|
we may experience difficulties in coordinating geographically disparate organizations and corporate cultures and integrating management personnel with different business backgrounds.
|
The inability of our management to successfully integrate acquired businesses, and any related diversion of management’s attention, could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition.
Business combinations and other acquisition transactions may have a direct adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or liquidity, or on our stock price.
To complete acquisitions or other business combinations, we may have to use cash, issue new equity securities with dilutive effects on existing stockholders, take on new debt, assume contingent liabilities or amortize assets or expenses in a manner that might have a material adverse effect on our balance sheet, results of operations or liquidity. We are required to record certain financing and acquisition-related costs and other items as current period expenses, which would have the effect of reducing our reported earnings in the period in which an acquisition is consummated. These and other potential negative effects of an acquisition transaction could prevent us from realizing the benefits of such transactions and have a material adverse impact on our stock price, revenues, revenue growth, balance sheet, results of operations and liquidity.
We expect that we will need to raise additional funds, and these funds may not be available when we need them or the additional funds may not be obtained on favorable terms.
We believe that we will need to raise additional monies in order to fund our growth strategy and implement our business plan. Specifically, we expect that we will need to raise additional funds in order to pursue rapid expansion, develop new or enhanced services and products, and acquire complementary businesses or assets. Additionally, we may need funds to respond to unanticipated events that require us to make additional investments in our business. There can be no assurance that additional financing will be available when needed, on favorable terms, or at all. If these funds are not available when we need them, then we may need to change our business strategy and reduce our rate of growth.
Our competitors may be able to develop their business strategy and grow revenue at a faster pace than us, which could limit our results of operations and may force us to cease or curtail operations.
The wireless mobile solutions marketplace, while highly fragmented, is very competitive and many of our competitors are more established and have greater resources. We expect that competition will intensify in the future. Some of these competitors also have greater market presence, marketing capabilities, technological and personnel resources than our company. As compared with our company therefore, such competitors may:
-
|
develop and expand their infrastructure and service/product offerings more efficiently or more quickly
|
-
|
adapt more swiftly to new or emerging technologies and changes in client requirements
|
-
|
take advantage of acquisition and other opportunities more effectively
|
-
|
devote greater resources to the marketing and sale of their products and services
|
-
|
leverage more effectively, existing relationships with customers and strategic partners or exploit better recognized brand names to market and sell their services.
|
These current and prospective competitors include:
-
|
other wireless mobile solutions companies such as International Business Machines, Accenture, Sedlak, Peak Technologies, Agilysys, Acsis, Stratix, InfoLogix and Catalyst International
|
-
|
in certain areas, our existing hardware suppliers, in particular Motorola but also Intermec, Zebra and others
|
-
|
the in-house IT departments of many of our customers.
|
A significant portion of our revenue is dependent upon a small number of customers and the loss of any one of these customers would negatively impact our revenues and our results of operations.
We derived approximately 26% of our revenues from our two largest customers in 2010. We derived approximately 25% of our revenues from two customers in 2009. Customer mix shifts significantly from year to year, but a concentration of the business with a few large customers is typical in any given year. A decline in our revenues could occur if a customer which has been a significant factor in one financial reporting period gives us significantly less business in the following period.
For the year ended December 31, 2010 we had.one customer in the healthcare industry that generated 16% of our total sales. We had another customer in the transportation/logistic industry that generated 10% of our total sales. Any one of our customers could reduce their orders for our products and services in favor of a more competitive price or different product at any time. The loss of any one of these customers or reduced purchases by them would not have a material adverse effect on our business as we would adjust our personnel staffing levels accordingly.
Our contracts with these customers and our other customers do not include any specific purchase requirements or other requirements outside of the normal course of business. The majority of our customer contracts are on an annual basis. Typical hardware sales are submitted on an estimated order basis with subsequent follow on orders for specific quantities. These sales are ultimately subject to the time that the units are installed at all of the customer locations as per their requirements. Service contracts are purchased on an annual basis generally and are the performance responsibility of the actual service provider as opposed to the Company. Termination provisions are generally standard clauses based upon non-performance, but a customer can cancel with a certain reasonable notice period anywhere from 30 to 90 days. General industry standards for contracts provide ordinary terms and conditions, while actual work and performance aspects are usually dictated by a Statement of Work which outlines what is being ordered, product specifications, delivery, installation and pricing.
Growth of and changes in our revenues and profits depend on the customer, product and geographic mix of our sales. Fluctuations in our sales mix could have an adverse impact on or increase the volatility of our revenues, gross margins and profits.
Sales of our products to large enterprises tend to have lower prices and gross margins than sales to smaller firms. In addition, our gross margins vary depending on the product or service provided. Growth in our revenues and gross margins therefore depends on the customer, geographic, product and professional services mix of our sales. If we are unable to execute a sales strategy that results in a favorable sales mix, our revenues, gross margins and earnings may decline. Further, changes in the mix of our sales from quarter-to-quarter or year-to-year may make our revenues, gross margins and earnings more volatile and difficult to predict.
Our sales and profitability may be affected by changes in economic, business or industry conditions.
If the economic climate in the U.S. or abroad deteriorates, customers or potential customers could reduce or delay their technology investments. Reduced or delayed technology investments could decrease our sales and profitability. In this environment, our customers may experience financial difficulty, cease operations and fail to budget or reduce budgets for the purchase of our products and professional services. This may lead to longer sales cycles, delays in purchase decisions, payment and collection, and can also result in downward price pressures, causing our sales and profitability to decline. In addition, general economic uncertainty and general declines in capital spending in the information technology sector make it difficult to predict changes in the purchasing requirements of our customers and the markets we serve. There are many other factors which could affect our business, including:
·
|
the introduction and market acceptance of new technologies, products and services;
|
·
|
new competitors and new forms of competition;
|
·
|
the size and timing of customer orders;
|
·
|
the size and timing of capital expenditures by our customers;
|
·
|
adverse changes in the credit quality of our customers and suppliers;
|
·
|
changes in the pricing policies of, or the introduction of, new products and services by us or our competitors;
|
·
|
changes in the terms of our contracts with our customers or suppliers;
|
·
|
the availability of products from our suppliers; and
|
·
|
variations in product costs and the mix of products sold.
|
These trends and factors could adversely affect our business, profitability and financial condition and diminish our ability to achieve our strategic objectives.
Use of third-party suppliers and service providers could adversely affect our product quality, delivery schedules or customer satisfaction, any of which could have an adverse effect on our financial results.
We rely heavily on a number of privileged vendor relationships as a Tier-1, VAR and for the Motorola Solutions PartnerEmpower Program, a manufacturer of bar code scanners and portable data terminals; as an Honors Solutions Provider for Intermec, a manufacturer of bar code scanners and terminals; as a Premier Partner with Zebra, a printer manufacturer, and O’Neil, the leading provider of ‘ruggedized’ handheld mobile printers. The loss of VAR status with any of these manufacturers could have a substantial adverse effect on our business.
We have not sought to protect our proprietary knowledge through patents and, as a result, our sales and profitability could be adversely affected to the extent that competing products/services were to capture a significant portion of our target markets.
We have generally not sought patent protection for our products and services, relying instead on our technical know-how and ability to design solutions tailored to our customers’ needs. Our sales and profitability could be adversely affected to the extent that competing products/services were to capture a significant portion of our target markets. To remain competitive, we must continually improve our existing personnel skill sets and capabilities and the provision of the services related thereto. Our success will also depend, in part, on management’s ability to recognize new technologies and services and make arrangements to license in, or acquire such technologies so as to remain always at the leading edge.
We must effectively manage the growth of our operations, or our company will suffer.
Our ability to successfully implement our business plan requires an effective planning and management process. If funding is available, we intend to increase the scope of our operations and acquire complimentary businesses. Implementing our business plan will require significant additional funding and resources. If we grow our operations, we will need to hire additional employees and make significant capital investments. If we grow our operations, it will place a significant strain on our existing management and resources. If we grow, we will need to improve our financial and managerial controls and reporting systems and procedures, and we will need to expand, train and manage our workforce. Any failure to manage any of the foregoing areas efficiently and effectively would cause our business to suffer.
If we fail to continue to introduce new products that achieve broad market acceptance on a timely basis, we will not be able to compete effectively and we will be unable to increase or maintain sales and profitability.
Our future success depends on our ability to develop and introduce new products and product enhancements that achieve broad market acceptance. If we are unable to develop and introduce new products that respond to emerging technological trends and customers’ mission critical needs, our profitability and market share may suffer. The process of developing new technology is complex and uncertain, and if we fail to accurately predict customers’ changing needs and emerging technological trends, our business could be harmed. We must commit significant resources to developing new products before knowing whether our investments will result in products the market will accept. We may encounter delays in deploying new or improved products.
We are active in the identification and development of new products and technologies and in enhancing our current products. However, in the enterprise mobility solutions industry, such activities are complex and filled with uncertainty. If we expend a significant amount of resources and our efforts do not lead to the successful introduction of new or improved products, there could be a material adverse effect on our business, profitability, financial condition and market share.
We may also encounter delays in the manufacturing and production of new products from our principal OEM vendors. Additionally, new products may not be commercially successful. Demand for existing products may decrease upon the announcement of new or improved products. Further, since products under development are often announced before introduction, these announcements may cause customers to delay purchases of any products, even if newly introduced, until the new or improved versions of those products are available. If customer orders decrease or are delayed during the product transition, we may experience a decline in revenue and have excess inventory on hand which could decrease gross profit margins. Our profitability might decrease if customers, who may otherwise choose to purchase existing products, instead choose to purchase lower priced models of new products. Delays or deficiencies in the development, manufacturing, and delivery of, or demand for, new or improved products could have a negative effect on our business or profitability.
We face competition from numerous sources and competition may increase, leading to a decline in revenues.
We compete primarily with well-established companies, many of which we believe have greater resources than us. We believe that barriers to entry are not significant and start-up costs are relatively low, so our competition may increase in the future. New competitors may be able to launch new businesses similar to ours, and current competitors may replicate our business model, at a relatively low cost. If competitors with significantly greater resources than ours decide to replicate our business model, they may be able to quickly gain recognition and acceptance of their business methods and products through marketing and promotion. We may not have the resources to compete effectively with current or future competitors. If we are unable to effectively compete, we will lose sales to our competitors and our revenues will decline.
We are heavily dependent on our senior management, and a loss of a member of our senior management team could cause our stock price to suffer.
If we lose members of our senior management, we may not be able to find appropriate replacements on a timely basis, and our business could be adversely affected. Our existing operations and continued future development depend to a significant extent upon the performance and active participation of certain key individuals, including our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Senior Vice Presidents and certain other senior management individuals. We cannot guarantee that we will be successful in retaining the services of these or other key personnel. If we were to lose any of these individuals, we may not be able to find appropriate replacements on a timely basis and our financial condition and results of operations could be materially adversely affected.
Our inability to hire, train and retain qualified employees could cause our financial condition to suffer.
The success of our business is highly dependent upon our ability to hire, train and retain qualified employees. We face competition from other employers for people, and the availability of qualified people is limited. We must offer a competitive employment package in order to hire and retain employees, and any increase in competition for people may require us to increase wages and/or benefits in order to maintain a sufficient work force, resulting in higher operation costs. Additionally, we must successfully train our employees in order to provide high quality services. In the event of high turnover or shortage of people, we may experience difficulty in providing consistent high-quality services. These factors could adversely affect our results of operations.
If we do not generate sufficient future taxable income, we may be required to recognize additional deferred tax asset valuation allowances.
The value of our deferred tax assets depends, in part, on our ability to use them to offset taxable income in future years. If we are unable to generate sufficient future taxable income or if there are significant changes in tax laws or the tax rates or the period within which the underlying temporary differences become taxable or deductible, we could be required to increase our valuation allowance against our deferred tax assets. Such an increase would result in an increase in our effective tax rate and have a negative impact on our operating results. If our estimated future taxable income is increased, the valuation allowances for deferred tax assets may be reduced. These changes may also contribute to the volatility of our financial results.
SPECIFIC RISKS RELATING TO OUR COMMON STOCK
We have not paid dividends on our common stock in the past and do not expect to pay dividends in the future. Any return on investment may be limited to the value of our common stock.
We have never paid cash dividends on our common stock and do not anticipate paying cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future. The payment of dividends on our common stock would depend on earnings, financial condition and other business and economic factors affecting it at such time as the Board of Directors may consider relevant. If we do not pay dividends, our common stock may be less valuable because a return on your investment will only occur if its stock price appreciates.
There is a limited market for our common stock which may make it more difficult to dispose of your stock.
Our common stock is currently quoted on the OTC Pink. There is a limited trading market for our common stock. Accordingly, there can be no assurance as to the liquidity of any markets that may develop for our common stock, the ability of holders of our common stock to sell our common stock, or the prices at which holders may be able to sell our common stock.
A sale of a substantial number of shares of our common stock may cause the price of our common stock to decline.
If our stockholders sell substantial amounts of our common stock in the public market, the market price of our common stock could fall. These sales also may make it more difficult for us to sell equity or equity-related securities in the future at a time and price that we deem reasonable or appropriate. Stockholders who have been issued shares in the Acquisition will be able to sell their shares pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, beginning one year after the stockholders acquired their shares.
Our common stock is subject to the "Penny Stock" rules of the SEC and the trading market in our securities is limited, which makes transactions in our stock cumbersome and may reduce the value of an investment in our stock.
The SEC has adopted Rule 3a51-1 which establishes the definition of a "penny stock", for the purposes relevant to us, as any equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share or with an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. For any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, Rule 15g-9 requires:
·
|
that a broker or dealer approve a person's account for transactions in penny stocks; and
|
·
|
that the broker or dealer receives from the investor a written agreement to the transaction, setting forth the identity and quantity of the penny stock to be purchased.
|
In order to approve a person's account for transactions in penny stocks, the broker or dealer must:
·
|
obtain financial information and investment experience and objectives of the person; and
|
·
|
make a reasonable determination that the transactions in penny stocks are suitable for that person and the person has sufficient knowledge and experience in financial matters to be capable of evaluating the risks of transactions in penny stocks.
|
The broker or dealer must also deliver, prior to any transaction in a penny stock, a disclosure schedule prescribed by the SEC relating to the penny stock market, which, in highlight form:
·
|
sets forth the basis on which the broker or dealer made the suitability determination; and
|
·
|
that the broker or dealer received a signed, written agreement from the investor prior to the transaction.
|
Disclosure also has to be made about the risks of investing in penny stocks in both public offerings and in secondary trading and about the commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative, current quotations for the securities and the rights and remedies available to an investor in cases of fraud in penny stock transactions. Finally, monthly statements have to be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stock held in the account and information on the limited market in penny stocks.
Generally, brokers may be less willing to execute transactions in securities subject to the "penny stock" rules. This may make it more difficult for investors to dispose of our common stock and cause a decline in the market value of our stock.
BUSINESS
Background
DecisionPoint, formerly known as Canusa Capital Corp. was incorporated on December 27, 2006, under the laws of the State of Delaware. On June 17, 2009, we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (“Merger Agreement”) among us, DecisionPoint Acquisition, Inc., a Delaware corporation which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub”), and DecisionPoint Systems Holding, Inc., a California corporation (“Holding”). Holding merged with and into Merger Sub with Merger Sub surviving the Merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company under the name DecisionPoint Systems Group, Inc. (“DPS Group”). Prior to the Merger, the Canusa Capital Corp. was a “shell company” (as such term is defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of DPS Group from its shareholders in exchange for 20,000,000 shares of the Company’s shares of common stock and assumed all of DPS Group’s obligations under its outstanding stock options plans and warrant agreements.
As set forth above, on June 15, 2011, DecisionPoint Systems, Inc. formerly known as Comamtech, Inc. (the "Company”), entered into a Plan of Arrangement (the “Plan of Arrangement”) and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) among the Company, 2259736 Ontario Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Comamtech incorporated under the laws of the Province of Ontario, Canada (the “Purchaser”) and DecisionPoint Systems, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Old DecisionPoint”). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement and Plan of Arrangement under Section 182 of the Ontario Business Corporation Act, on June 15, 2011 (the “Effective Date”), Old DecisionPoint merged (the “Merger”) into the Purchaser becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. In connection with the Merger, the Company changed its name to DecisionPoint Systems, Inc. and Purchaser changed its name to DecisionPoint Systems International, Inc.
Old DecisionPoint has two wholly owned subsidiaries, DPS Group and CMAC, Inc. (“CMAC”). We acquired CMAC on December 31, 2010. CMAC was founded and incorporated on March 20, 1996. CMAC is a logistics consulting and systems integration provider focused on delivering operational and technical supply chain solutions, headquartered in Alpharetta, Georgia.
DPS Group has two wholly owned subsidiaries. DecisionPoint Systems CA, Inc., formerly known as Creative Concepts Software, Inc. (“CCS”) was founded in 1995 and is a leading provider of Enterprise Mobility Solutions. Enterprise Mobility Solutions are those computer systems that give an enterprise the ability to connect to people, control assets, and transact business from any location by using mobile computers, tablet computers, and smartphones to securely connect the mobile worker to the back office software systems that run the enterprise. Technologies that support Enterprise Mobility Solutions include national wireless carrier networks, Wi-Fi, local area networks, mobile computers, smartphones and tablets, mobile software applications, middleware and device security and management software. DecisionPoint Systems CT, Inc. formerly known as Sentinel Business Systems, Inc. (“SBS”) was founded in 1976 and has developed over time a family of powerful enterprise data collection software solutions, products and services. The combined company is a data collection systems integrator that sells and installs mobile devices, software, and related bar coding equipment, radio frequency identification (“RFID”) systems technology and provides custom solutions and other professional services.
Overview
We deliver to our customers the ability to make better, faster and more accurate business decisions by implementing industry-specific, enterprise wireless and mobile computing systems for their front-line employees, inside and outside of the ‘four-walls’. It is these systems which provide the information to improve the hundreds of individual business decisions made each day. The “productivity paradox” is that the information remains locked away in their organization’s enterprise computing system, accessible only when employees are at their desk. Our solutions solve this productivity issue. As a result our customers are able to move their business decision points closer to their own customers who in turn, drive their own improved productivity and operational efficiencies.
We accomplish this by providing our customers with everything they need through the process of achieving their enterprise mobility goals, starting with the planning of their systems, to the design and build stage, to the deployment and support stage, and finally to achieving their projected Return On Investment (“ROI”). Our business designs, sells, installs and services voice and data communications products and systems for private networks and wireless broadband systems for a wide range of enterprise markets, including retail, transportation and logistics, manufacturing, wholesale and distribution, as well as other commercial customers (which, collectively, are referred to as the “commercial enterprise market”).
We design, implement, and support mobile computing and wireless systems, and supply chain solutions for our customers which they use to deliver improved productivity and better customer service to their customers. We provide systems and solutions that include a) professional services for system and solution design and implementation, and ongoing equipment and system support; b) hardware products, hardware maintenance, software products, and software maintenance sourced from suppliers and wholesale distributors; and c) software and software maintenance developed internally. We provide value to our customers by giving them the capability to make better, faster and more accurate business decisions. It is these mobile computing and wireless systems that empower people with the information to improve the hundreds of individual business decisions they make each day.
We are able to provide our customers with everything they need to bring their ideas to reality by using the specialized skills and knowledge of our staff. The range of our offerings include consulting and design services, technical and programming services, mobile computing, and wireless and RFID hardware, software, and support services to carry it out. Customers are looking for mobile computing and wireless systems, and supply chain solutions that range from the design, implementation and support of hardware, software and professional services. Systems and solutions continue to be developed with an ‘out-of–the box and one-stop shop’ approach to mobile computing and wireless systems. Our core business and experience working with suppliers of equipment, independent software vendors, and developing solutions for our customers has enabled us to continuously expand and broaden our solutions and services for our customers. We continuously look for opportunities to help our customers relating to our core competencies. Our ongoing involvement with technological changes of equipment and software positions us to expand our professional services business and provide solutions for customers to improve their operations.
We are focused on several markets. These include retail, manufacturing, distribution, transportation and logistics. We are also increasingly focused on the markets for these systems in the markets where there are large groups of field services workers. These markets include maintenance and repair, inspections, deliveries, and other specialized business services such as uniform rental. This part of our business did not exist a few years ago. But with the continued growth of the mobile internet, we expect to add resources in this area in order to take advantage of the increasing opportunities. We expect our customers to continue to embrace and deploy new technology to enhance their own customers’ experience with business and improve their own operations to lower their operating costs and better service their customers. Our expertise and understanding of our customers’ operations and operations of businesses in general coupled with our expertise and understanding of new technology for equipment and software offerings enables us to identify new trends and opportunities to implement new solutions to our existing and potential customers.
A graphical view of our business process is presented below:
We deliver a solution that typically consists of a combination of the following:
●
|
specialized mobile computers
|
●
|
a wireless network infrastructure (or the use of a national wireless carrier)
|
●
|
specialized mobile application software
|
●
|
integration software to our customer’s existing enterprise systems, and
|
●
|
a range of professional services needed to make it all ‘work’
|
●
|
industry and/or software specific consulting and integration services.
|
We employ a highly talented and experienced staff of consultants (both in-house and on a contract basis), architects, engineers, and support personnel to guide our customers through this process to success.
During the business cycle our highly experienced professionals will:
●
|
consult with customers about their business needs
|
●
|
design the overall enterprise mobile solution to fit the needs
|
●
|
build or acquire the software needed for the solution
|
●
|
acquire the wireless and mobile computers needed
|
●
|
deliver the services to deploy it all, and
|
●
|
support the system after it has been installed.
|
Bringing mobile computing to the front-line enterprise worker is orders of magnitude more challenging than delivering similar technology to the consumer. Unlike the individual consumer, a business enterprise has significant performance, reliability and security requirements. In addition, any system must be integrated with the complex enterprise systems already in place. Therefore, we must possess the required knowledge and be able to manage a myriad of technical details and nuances to achieve our customer’s desired outcome.
We have developed an ‘ecosystem’ of partners which we bring to every customer situation. The standout partner in this ecosystem is Motorola Solutions, Inc. (“Motorola”) for which we consistently are one of the nation’s top Value Added Resellers (“VAR”) and member of their Partner Pinnacle Club program.
We provide Enterprise Mobility Solutions to our customers that include hardware and software as well as consulting and solution design, technical and programming services, and software and support services. Our hardware suppliers include companies such as Motorola, Zebra Technologies Corporation, Datalogic Scanning, Inc., Intermec Technologies Corporation, and Datamax — O'Neil, a unit of Dover Corporation. Software suppliers include companies such as Airversent, Inc., Antenna Software, GlobalBay Mobile Technologies, Inc., Syclo LLC and Wavelink Corporation. Hardware and software products can be purchased either directly from the supplier or from wholesale distributors of technology products such as Ingram Micro, Inc., ScanSource, Inc. and Blue Star, Inc. Product availability from suppliers and wholesale distributors can be subject to short term delays of 30 to 60 days due to significant demand changes, and at times we may have exposure to potential longer term limited product availability due to product recalls or natural disasters such as the recent tsunami in Japan. Such product availability issues do not generally affect our ability to compete in the marketplace; rather it may affect our ability to deliver our solutions on a timely basis. We purchase most of our hardware from Motorola since they are the industry leader for scanner hardware and related accessories which they manufacture, but we have the ability to purchase hardware from other suppliers such as Intermec. Our agreements with suppliers have different terms than our competitors and as such, we do not want our competitors to have any knowledge of those terms and conditions as it would affect our ability to be competitive in the market.
We do not engage in any research and development activities
Major vendors and other top partners have come to depend on the VAR channel in order to grow their own businesses. This is because they cannot cost-effectively penetrate their target markets alone given the number and variety of ways their product is applied and because of the myriad of complex integration requirements. They have come to view their role as providing the best-of-breed wireless and mobile computing technology to the market and partner with us to extend their business. This applies not only to Motorola with wireless and mobile computing technology, but also to other high tech manufacturers who produce printers, labels, RFID and other technology products.
As our markets have grown and have become more sophisticated, we have grown both in size and in the nature and type of services offered. As our customers come to depend more and more on enterprise wireless and mobile computing to run their businesses, we continue to deliver and expand our services to keep those systems running. We are actively moving into the areas of enterprise managed services, consulting services and software-as-a-service (“SaaS”) to continue to deliver our value and build ongoing revenue streams for the Company.
We have made several investments in SaaS offerings in response to what we believe will be a fundamental shift in our customers’ buying behavior. And we are monitoring the results closely. Customers are fundamentally beginning to realize that they do not have to own the entire end-to-end solution in order to reap its benefits. In fact, there can be major cost savings for them if they choose instead to receive part of the value of what we have to offer in a SaaS model. We are a believer in this theory ourselves, as we are an avid salesforce.com customer. Salesforce.com is one of the world’s largest SaaS companies.
Acquisition of CMAC
On December 31, 2010, we acquired CMAC, a supply chain consulting and systems integration firm focused on delivering operational and technical solutions for enterprises. Both CMAC and DecisionPoint are in the same vertical markets, and the acquisition is intended to broaden our professional services and software integration. Our combined teams will work together to complement each other’s strengths. The acquisition of CMAC also expands our data base of professional services contractors who are available on an as-needed basis, thereby enabling us to be more responsive and act more quickly to assist our customers.
CMAC is committed to improving its clients’ competitive position by developing operational excellence strategies and implementing best-in-class supply chain planning, execution and automated technology solutions. Its focus is on providing integration and implementation services for customer supply chain management applications ranging from Warehouse Management Systems (“WMS”), Enterprise Resource Planning (“ERP”), to Transportation Management Systems (“TMS”) as well as others. CMAC provides highly skilled resources to manage or augment customer project teams during the design, development and/or deployment stages.
CMAC’s professional services can be summarized as follows:
For over 15 years, CMAC’s experienced team has provided cost effective solutions to organizations in various industries and has evolved into a proven market leader. CMAC has standardized processes and procedures that allow for rapid deployment of integration and implementation solutions. This methodology is designed for success and will aid us in managing our customer deployments from the software selection process through the implementation and launch support phases. Together our combined team aims to provide our clients with highly experienced and affordable professionals using proven methodologies designed to achieve a quicker value realization.
CMAC has a Technology Center, located in Alpharetta, Georgia, that will provide our partners and customers with an avenue to perform software solution demos and evaluations, end user training, conference room pilots, hardware and software validation, and device management services. In addition, the Technology Center is equipped with all of the latest wireless network technologies to perform real-time testing and validation of network functionality and infrastructure.
Marketplace
Industry
Over the past five years, the Enterprise Mobile Computing industry has standardized several key technologies. This standardization has enabled the market to grow. Examples of this include the WindowsMobile, Android, RIM and iPhone operating system for mobile devices, 802.11 a/b/g “Wi-Fi” wireless local area networks, and robust nationwide wireless carrier data networks such as AT&T and T-Mobile (HSDPA technology), and Verizon and Sprint (EVDO technology).
This standardization has allowed mobile computing manufacturers to build product to these widely adopted standards, creating the opportunity to automate workers using these standards. These developments have created many opportunities for us to build enterprise wireless and mobile computing solutions for our customers’ needs.
Determining which enterprise wireless and mobile solutions we deliver to our customers highly depends on several key factors including the customer’s industry. It requires that we possess domain expertise in our customers’ industries. It also requires business application software expertise, general industry and software specific knowledge and mobile computing and wireless networking technical acumen.
The customer’s industry is very important because unlike generic wireless business applications such as email, the applications that we provide involve business processes which are very specific to a vertical market. An example is Proof-of-Delivery (“POD”). In order for a POD application to deliver value it must not only be tailored to a specific industry such as couriers, but it must also be tailored to each specific courier company depending on how they run their business process.
The key to delivering customer solutions profitably is for us to know where standardized system hardware and software components will deliver the required result and where they cannot and therefore, more custom components need to be utilized. This capability comes from our years of experience, our talented professionals and our highly developed ecosystem of partners.
We provide a complete line of consulting, deployment and integration services, including site surveys, equipment configuration and staging, system installation, depot services, software support, training programs and project management.
Current Market Environment
Over the last several years, we have been repositioning ourselves to focus more on providing higher margin consulting services along with customer-driven, mobile wireless and RFID solutions rather than providing simply hardware and customized software as a reseller. This is the key to increasing our profitability and is also a major point of differentiation. The acquisition of CMAC is expected to be instrumental in this repositioning. Small resellers and large catalog resellers simply do not want to, or cannot, provide the types of custom, hands-on services needed to make these systems a success. Our major ecosystem partners, such as Motorola, recognize this and have come to depend more and more on us to deliver the business value that their products enable.
By referring more end-user demand to DecisionPoint, manufacturers can leverage our personnel and skills to provide customers with enhanced personal service. With deep expertise about specific customers’ operations and industry, resellers are very effective in promoting sales of key vendor’s products. Today, a majority of Motorola’s sales of mobile computers are through the sales channel in which we participate.
We benefit from other advantages by participating in this sales channel. The industry leaders have established program rewards, such as favorable pricing structure incentives, for those top-tier VARs, such as DecisionPoint, who invest in their programs and technologies. As a result, we train our personnel, which differentiate us from other potential competitors who may not have the same training as our personnel.
Within our commercial enterprise market, we believe there continues to be long-term opportunity for growth as the global workforce continues to become more mobile and the industries and markets that purchase our products and services continue to expand. The markets in which we compete include mobile computing products and services, enterprise wireless services, bar code scanning, RFID products and services and mobile network management platforms. Organizations looking to increase productivity and derive benefits from mobilizing their applications and workforces are driving adoption in this market.
Our strategy in our target market is to enable our customers to focus on their missions, not the technology. This is accomplished by providing mission-critical systems, seamless connectivity through highly reliable voice and data networks and a suite of advanced and/or custom applications that provide real-time information to end users.
DecisionPoint Target Market(s)
The markets for enterprise wireless and mobile computing are very fragmented while also being extremely complex in nature. But generally they can be characterized by the following attributes:
1.
|
Vertical market industries which require specific domain expertise.
|
2.
|
Industries which track goods or deliver a service in the field (or both).
|
3.
|
Industries which have a significant group of mobile workers, whether they operate primarily in one place or in the field.
|
4.
|
Manufacturing operations where there’s real-time interaction between the shop floor employees and the management decision makers.
|
5.
|
Manufacturing and assembly operations that are moving more and more to a Just-in-Time (“JIT”) operation where accurate data is critical.
|
In the commercial enterprise market, our approach is to deliver products and services that are designed to empower the mobile workforce to increase productivity, drive cost effectiveness and promote faster execution of critical business processes.
Vertical Markets
The attractiveness of any vertical market depends directly on the size and nature of the problems which that market faces that can be addressed by enterprise wireless and mobile computing. Historically, retail, warehousing, and manufacturing were the largest industries. Each typically had large amounts of goods in constant motion which needed to be tracked. In addition, each had a workforce which primarily operated in one place (i.e. a retail store, a distribution center or a factory).
Although these markets are still attractive for us and comprise a significant portion of our business, new markets are emerging which hold as great or even greater promise than our historical markets.
Transportation, logistics and field services such as repair and maintenance, delivery and inspections are now emerging as great new markets. This is primarily due to the arrival of robust, national wireless carrier networks that can reach a field-based mobile worker almost anywhere they are. The general term for this new group of markets is referred to as “Field Mobility”. Although it cuts across multiple industries and business applications, it has one common characteristic: goods are tracked or services are being performed by field-based workforces, not workers operating in a single location under one roof.
Our Field Mobility Practice
We believe that the growth of Field Mobility based markets will be so significant over the next several years, that we have created a dedicated specialty business practice to focus on it. This practice was established in 2008, with the express purpose of replicating our historical success with a new set of customers and challenges together with a new ecosystem of partners which includes the four major wireless carriers of AT&T, Sprint, T-Mobile and Verizon. The carriers not only bring potential new opportunities but also have attractive programs which allow us to earn additional revenue from them when we facilitate service of mobile computers and devices on their networks.
We are not alone in our expectations of growth for Field Mobility. Motorola, and more specifically, the newly split entity, Motorola Solutions, has demonstrated through its strong on-going support, that it’s also counting on significant growth as well. They believe that as wireless carrier networks become ubiquitous, it will increase their market opportunity to put greater numbers of mobile computers into the hands of entire groups of field-based workers who may have never had a mobile computer before.
Products and Services
Mobile Applications
We deploy mobile applications for a wide variety of business processes, depending on the industry. Below is a brief overview of some of those applications by industry:
Retail Store: Stock locator, shelf price marking, markdowns, inventory control, physical inventory, merchandising, customer service and mobile point-of-sale (“POS”).
Warehousing and Distribution: Order shipping, order picking and packing, stock move and replenishments, product receipt and putaway, labeling, physical inventory and cycle counts.
Manufacturing: Production count, work-in-process tracking, raw material consumption, Just-in-Time manufacturing requirements, quality control and assurance, lot/batch/serial number control and scrap reporting.
Transportation and Logistics: Proof-of-delivery, turn-by-turn directions, route optimization, cross-docking, returns and driver logging.
Field Mobility: Field service and repair, enterprise asset management, inspection, preventative maintenance, surveys, rounds and readings.
Software
Unlike the market for standardized business software such as email or accounting, the market for enterprise mobile software is more customized. One size does not fit all. Software for enterprise mobile systems must support the specialized business processes in an industry-specific and sometimes customer-specific way. For this reason, we utilize several avenues to provide the mobile software solutions to meet our customers’ needs depending on their situation and requirements.
●
|
Software sourced from specialized ISV’s. The software produced by key ISVs is designed to fit a need in a particular vertical market and application. Even still, it must be tailored to meet the needs of each customer. Depending on the situation, this tailoring is done by us or by the ISV themselves under contract to us. We have built a network of ISVs in its ecosystem specializing in Field Mobility applications for this purpose.
|
●
|
CASE Tools/Pathfinder™ is our own application development platform. Developed over the past 20 years, it is a stable and capable software platform for many typical application uses but generally not for Field Mobility applications.
|
●
|
Custom software created in-house using standardized programming tools like Microsoft.NET® framework and Java™. These are used by customer demand or when there is simply no other “off-the-shelf” way to meet the customer’s requirements.
|
We have multiple software options available which gives us the ability to meet the customer’s total need at the best value to them. We intentionally have made a point not to be “married” to any single vendor, product offering and/or solution in order to be focused on the customer’s ultimate needs.
Professional Services
Our professional services offerings fall into one of three categories: business consulting, technical consulting and technical development. Business consulting is where we engage with our customer to help them understand the potential ROI of implementing mobile computing, or supply chain services as examples, for a particular business process. Technical consulting services help determine the technology to be used and how it is to be implemented. We utilize our proven evaluation techniques, tools, and experience to recommend the optimal technology solution that provides organizational, operational and system improvements to our customers. We take advantage of our database and assessment methodology to quickly identify viable solutions for client operations. Once the solution is identified and selected, we apply our proven fast track “3D” (Define, Design, Deliver) implementation methodology to insure project success. Technical development includes actual software programming and configuration of the mobile computing, WMS and TMS application solutions as well as interface software needed to connect to our customer’s existing back-office systems.
The Company’s full suite of professional services allow for many “areas of engagement” with our customer base. We can initiate and engage on an opportunity in several areas of the project lifecycle. The professional services listed below allow us to provide value to organizations regardless of where the customer is in their project evaluation/implementation or rollout:

CMAC, along with one of our ISV Partners, offers Near-Shoring services for application development and host application programming. Our partnership allows us to offer extremely competitive resource rates for application development, scripting, code design, and custom application development. This area has significant growth potential as more companies are looking to move application development closer to their operations where the time zones and language barriers are not an issue. We also have Tier 3 WMS ISV partners for traditional WMS turnkey solutions as well as SaaS inventory management hosted solutions.
Rollout, Support and Management Services
These services involve installing a solution into the customer’s computer systems infrastructure (“implementation”) and then replicating that implementation out to all their operating locations (“rollout”). The rollout is critical because unless the mobile computing solution is rolled out across all operating locations, the desired ROI will most likely be limited.
We offer a wide range of services in this category. They include everything from assembling kits of everything needed for the system on a per location basis (“kitting”) to providing logistical services for rollout (“staging”), to advanced exchange services for broken units in the field, to help desk support and to a self-service portal where a customer can check the status of a service case or equipment repair.
For Field Mobility projects, carrier activation is a key service. Activation is where we actually activate mobile computers and/or devices to run on the carrier networks. Not only is this a key service to complete projects, but it is also a source of revenue for us from the carriers when we activate mobile computers and/or devices to operate on the carrier networks.
In addition, we offer staff augmentation services to customers that allow for shorter term projects or implementations, workflow management teams for cyclical business customers, as well as contract-to-hire resources that engage on supply chain projects and can convert to a permanent position at the customer location, which helps significantly with the knowledge transfer as well as capital knowledge base. Contract-to-hire solutions have proven beneficial for customers to overcome workforce issues during hiring freezes by allowing them to deploy solutions and then convert resources to full-time status upon expiration of the hiring freeze.
Finally, we are adding offerings in the managed services and SaaS categories. Increasingly, customers want to outsource various aspects of operating and maintaining their enterprise mobile systems. We are providing various service offerings to remotely manage customers’ mobile computers and wireless networks as well as offer mobile software on a SaaS subscription basis.
Hardware
Our hardware reseller sales strategy is designed to avoid competing for hardware sales based solely on low cost provider status. Throughout the sales cycle, we are diligent to point out to a customer that hardware is only one component of the complete solution they are looking for. By bundling the software and services, mentioned above together with the hardware, we position ourselves as the value-added solution provider. This positioning differentiates us from the low-price, ‘discount’ hardware resellers who do not have this capability.
We offer the following types of enterprise wireless and mobile computing hardware on a cost competitive basis:
·
|
Handheld and vehicle-mounted, ruggedized mobile computers
|
·
|
802.11 a/b/g wireless LAN (“Wi-Fi”) infrastructure
|
·
|
Mesh networking wireless infrastructure, such as the Motorola Canopy product line
|
·
|
RFID tag readers and related infrastructure
|
·
|
GPS receivers
|
·
|
Two-way radios
|
·
|
Handheld bar code scanners
|
·
|
Bar code label and RFID tag printers and encoders
|
·
|
Ruggedized laptops for industrial environments
|
Consumables
We have extensive expertise in bar code and RFID consumables solutions. We offer a full line of high quality labels, RFID tags, and printer ribbons to meet the demands of every printing system. We select the right components from a wide range of products on the market from both independent and original equipment manufacturers of printers and RFID printers/encoders. Matching media to the unique application is what makes the system work. In addition, consumables are essentially a recurring revenue stream once a customer has their system up and running.
Sales and Marketing
Customer Base
Our historical success has largely followed the broad adoption of enterprise wireless and mobile computing technology industry by industry. As mentioned above, this adoption pattern started with retail stores and moved backward through the retail supply chain into distribution and then manufacturing. It also spread horizontally from the retail supply chain into the supply chain of industrial goods as well. Our roots of DecisionPoint go back to the mid 1970’s, our customer base mirrors this fact as well. Our products and services are sold nationwide to a diverse set of customers such as retail, utility, transportation and logistics, manufacturing, wholesale and distribution and other commercial customers.
A cross-section of our customers includes:
·
|
Retailers in various categories and sizes, including “Tier-1” companies such as J. Crew Group, Inc., Liz Claiborne, Inc., PETCO Animal Supplies, Inc., Nike, Inc., Nordstrom, Inc., and Grocery Outlet (Canned Foods, Inc.).
|
·
|
Manufacturing companies such as Dade Behring (Division of Siemens), Mercedes Benz US International, Inc., BMW Manufacturing Company, KIA Motors Manufacturing Georgia, Inc., Sargent Manufacturing Co. (Division of ASSA Abloy), BASF Corp, Sanmina-SCI Corp, Orica USA, Inc., Timken Corp., Swiss Army Brands, Smith & Wesson and pharmaceutical companies such as Pfizer, Inc., and Celgene Corp.
|
·
|
Transportation, warehousing and distribution, including logistics companies such as Golden State Overnight Delivery Service, Inc., Ryder System, Inc., Exel, DHL Global Mail, Inc., SAIA, Inc. and Frontier Logistics LP.
|
Now that the Field Mobility marketplace is starting to grow significantly, we are working with customers such as Wackenhut Corp., for security services for their patrol officers, Scientific Games Corp., for their field service technicians, and Mobile Mini, Inc., a provider of mobile temporary storage facilities.
Go-To-Market Model
We aim to deliver the ‘whole solution’ to a customer, from solution design through support. Our objective is to target markets that will permit the delivery of as many of these products and services as possible, so as to maximize the profit opportunity while minimizing the costs of sale and delivery.
Thus, we seek to classify the type of end-user that it targets in order to quickly and cost-effectively put the right amount of resources on each sales opportunity. The three main end-user classifications are:
·
|
Full Solution Customer - This is a customer that wants us to provide not only the entire solution from initial consultation and design, but also the ongoing support of the system. Such an end-user views the entire system as critical to its business and wants to outsource it to industry professionals. This is the ideal customer for us, one that understands and values the cost effectiveness of the entire solution and ongoing support of the system.
|
·
|
Customer as their own integrator - The end-user sources all the parts and pieces of the system, programs it, installs it, commissions it and supports it. In effect, the customer is their own integrator, and wants to buy products and services only in a transactional relationship. DecisionPoint limits its resources to provide these customers with competitive product and service pricing.
|
·
|
Hybrid Customer - Such customers have some systems integration capability themselves but have also recognized that “they know what they don’t know” and are willing to contract for certain services as part of an enhanced transactional relationship. A Hybrid Customer is attractive on a case-by-case basis depending on the circumstances of the situation.
|
In each of the three scenarios above, we strive to position our professional services as a core value-added component to the customer. Our ability to reliably test, configure, kit, stage, and deploy large rollouts of mobile computers for specialized applications is a key service offering that enables our customers to realize the ROI they were expecting on mobile computing in the first place.
Sales and Sales Support
We support our go-to-market model using field-based teams of seasoned account executives with both pre- and post- sale systems architects who are experienced in all areas of enterprise mobile computing. Their focus is to develop customers’ enterprise wireless and mobile computing requirements in order to develop solutions for them and ultimately close business for our product and service set that fulfills those requirements.
We fulfill the need for application software both in-house and through ISVs depending on specific customer need. ISVs like this model because they are generally looking for sales, marketing and integration partners like us to expand their own reach.
We currently employ 65 people in our marketing, sales and professional services operation. We have 3 marketing people and 21 sales people, all of whom are qualified in system technology design, installation and integration. They receive substantial technical support and assistance from 28 systems engineers and technicians and 6 software engineers. Supporting the sales effort are 7 sales administrators, who are responsible for the detailed order entry and for the inputting of the related data into our accounting system.
Additionally we have access to an in-house database along several thousand contractors and resumes.
Geographically, the sales team is spread throughout the United States and can handle projects on a national and international basis from its East and West coast facilities. When a situation dictates, we may utilize independent contractors.
Sales System Support: salesforce.com
We make extensive use of the salesforce.com customer relationship management (“CRM”) system to support our sales and marketing operations.

Marketing Activities
We address our target markets through a combination of our own marketing activities, relationship selling and vendor-supplied leads. The common aim is to establish our credibility in the space, and then definitively demonstrate to the potential customer that we can tailor solutions to that customer’s needs.
Our seasoned sales team also provides many sales opportunities through past relationships and detailed domain knowledge of the operations of the top companies in the target market space. Given that enterprise wireless and mobile computing systems are a complex sale, it is very beneficial to have knowledge of how individual companies actually operate, how they address IT systems issues, and how they buy and manage complex technology. Our sales teams use such information to their advantage against some of the commodity-type resellers in the space.
Vendor-supplied leads play a part in our success as well, in that vendors see it to their advantage to funnel sales opportunities to us thereby minimizing their selling costs. They are also willing to spend a sizeable portion of their discretionary marketing development budget for demand generation activities.
Our investment in our Field Mobility practice is paying off in the form of wireless carrier sales. We established key wireless carrier relationships in 2008, and are now seeing the fruit of our labor. The carriers in many areas of the country have DecisionPoint as ‘top-of-mind’ when it comes to bringing specialized mobile applications to their existing customers.
In early 2009, we added an internal sales development function. Currently staffed by a seasoned industry veteran, this function is to continually cull all sources of leads and nurture them to the qualification stage where it makes economic sense for one of our account executives to get involved.
Realizing that statistics show that the vast majority of B2B activity today starts with an Internet search, we have invested in some forward-thinking tools and technologies to help meet our future customers there. In 2009, we performed a major revamp of our website, www.decisionpt.com, and we also now pilot online, closed-loop demand generation technologies and programs in order to productively increase the sales pipeline. The contents of our website are not incorporated into this Report. This includes email marketing with closed-loop feedback as well as email campaigns that track recipient behavior after their receipt in real time. This allows us to convert them into active prospects at the exact time they are investigating solutions for their particular problem.
Competition
The business in which we operate is highly competitive. Continued evolution in the industry, as well as technological migration, is opening up the market to increased competition. Other key competitive factors include: technology offered; price; availability of financing; product and system performance; product features, quality, availability and warranty; the quality and availability of service; company reputation; relationship with key customers and time-to-market. We believe we are uniquely positioned in the industry due to our strong customer and vendor relationships, our consultative and technological leadership and capabilities and our comprehensive range of offerings.
We compete with other VAR’s and System Integrators/engineering organizations (“SI’s”) in system design, integration and maintenance arenas. However, as a Tier-1 reseller for major equipment vendors including Motorola and Zebra, we encounter fewer than ten competitive Tier-1 VARs and SIs representing these manufacturers in the marketplace.
We typically win business from such competitors based on our turnkey software engineering skills and one-stop-shop technical capabilities. Recognizing us as a significant VAR within its universe of Tier-1 partners, Motorola has granted us variable pricing applicable to specific major customers. These price discounts give us an edge in the marketplace through greater margin flexibility. As a result, we do not typically lose contracts due to price sensitivity.
Large system integrators are seeking to move further into the segment in which we compete. Competitors in this segment, including us, may also serve as subcontractors to large system integrators and are selected based on a number of competitive factors and customer requirements. Where favorable to us, we may partner with other system integrators to make available our portfolio of advanced mission-critical services, applications and devices. We have identified the following eleven (11) companies as primary competitors in the VAR and SI spaces:

Other Competitors in the U.S. - Certain ‘catalog and online’ AIDC equipment resellers offer end-users deeply discounted, commodity oriented products; however, they typically offer limited or no maintenance support beyond the manufacturer’s warranty (which generally results in slower repair turnaround time). More importantly, as end users have become increasingly dependent on VARs and SIs to provide platform design, integration and maintenance, end users typically do not place major purchase orders with such resellers.

Employees
As June 15, 2011, we have a total of 78 full time and 2 part time employees. We have not experienced any work disruptions or stoppages and we consider relations with our employees to be good.

We provide value to our customers by giving them the capability to make better, faster and more accurate business decisions. It is these mobile computing and wireless systems that empower people with the information to improve the hundreds of individual business decisions they make each day.
We are able to provide our customers with everything they need to bring their ideas to reality by using the specialized skills and knowledge of our staff. The range of our offerings include consulting and design services, technical and programming services, mobile computing, and wireless and RFID hardware, software, and support services to carry it out. Customers are looking for mobile computing and wireless systems, and supply chain solutions that range from the design, implementation and support of hardware, software and professional services. Systems and solutions continue to be developed with an ‘out-of–the box and one-stop shop’ approach to mobile computing and wireless systems. Our core business and experience working with suppliers of equipment, independent software vendors, and developing solutions for our customers has enabled us to continuously expand and broaden our solutions and services for our customers. We continuously look for opportunities to help our customers relating to our core competencies. Our ongoing involvement with technological changes of equipment and software positions us to expand our professional services business and provide solutions for customers to improve their operations.
We have developed an ‘ecosystem’ of partners which we bring to every customer situation. The standout partner in this ecosystem is the Motorola Enterprise Mobility Division (“Motorola”), for whom we consistently are rated one of Motorola’s top Value Added Resellers. We also partner with other top equipment and software suppliers such as Zebra Technologies Corporation, Datamax - O’Neil — a unit of the Dover Corporation, in addition to a host of specialized independent software vendors such as AirVersent, Antenna Software, GlobalBay, Mobileframe, Syclo and Wavelink.
We are focused on several markets. These include retail, manufacturing, distribution, transportation and logistics. We are also increasingly focused on the markets for these systems in the markets where there are large groups of field services workers. These markets include maintenance and repair, inspections, deliveries, and other specialized business services such as uniform rental. This part of our business did not exist a few years ago. But with the continued growth of the mobile internet, we expect to add resources in this area in order to take advantage of the increasing opportunities. We expect our customers to continue to embrace and deploy new technology to enhance their own customers’ experience with business and improve their own operations to lower their operating costs and better service their customers. Our expertise and understanding of our customers’ operations and business operations in general, coupled with our expertise and understanding of new technology for equipment and software offerings enables us to identify new trends and opportunities to implement new solutions to our existing and potential customers.
Business Combination
On December 31, 2010, we acquired CMAC, a supply chain consulting and systems integration firm focused on delivering operational and technical solutions for the enterprise. The purchase price of $3,150,000 consisted of $2,205,000 in cash and 3,269,896 unregistered shares of our common stock, valued at $945,000. The value of the shares was based on the average daily closing price per share of our common stock for the ten consecutive trading days ending on December 29, 2010. The CMAC acquisition will enable us to increase our professional services and software revenue by enhancing our ability to deliver operational and technical supply chain solutions. We anticipate that CMAC will improve our overall gross margin through its professional services revenue, as well as provide us with additional resources to grow our current professional services revenue through its experienced staff of in-house consultants and data base of contract professional services consultants.
The operating results of CMAC are included in our results of operations beginning January 1, 2011.
Financing
On May 19, 2011 (the “Issuance Date”), we entered into a Note Purchase Agreement (”Purchase Agreement”), pursuant to which we issued $4,000,000 in Senior Subordinated Secured Notes. Principal and interest at a rate of 12% are due and payable on August 31, 2011. Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, on the Effective Date of the Merger, the maturity date of the Purchase Agreement was extended to May 31, 2012, and the interest rate was increased to 24% (or, if lower, the maximum amount allowable by law) retroactive to the Issuance Date.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE QUARTER ENDED MARCH 31, 2011
The following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon the unaudited results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2011, as compared to the same period ended March 31, 2010. These should be read in conjunction with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained elsewhere in this Form 8-K along with our Form 10-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 16, 2011.
Comparison of the Quarters Ended March 31, 2011 and March 31, 2010
Net sales were $12.8 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2011, compared to $11.1 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2010, an increase of $1.7 million or 15.6%. The increase in revenue in the current quarter was primarily due to the revenues earned by CMAC, which was acquired on December 31, 2010.
Cost of sales was $10.5 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2011, compared to $9.0 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2010, an increase of $1.4 million or 15.8%, in line with the increase in net sales. Our gross profit was $2.3 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2011, compared to $2.0 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2010. Although we continue to implement increased cost control of the products and services which we resell, our professional services costs were negatively impacted by our lower utilization associated with lower recognized revenue from these services in the current quarter and therefore, we did not realize the higher margins we had expected on those services. We have made some personnel reductions in the first quarter that will be fully realized in the second quarter of 2011.
Selling, general and administrative expenses were $3.5 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2011, compared to $2.4 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2010, an increase of $1.1 million or 43.4%. The increase in the current quarter was the result of additional costs related to the acquisition of CMAC. Additional costs incurred were approximately $0.2 million for investor relations and other non-cash compensation costs including employee stock based compensation of $0.1 million.
Other expenses were $0.4 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2011 compared to $0.8 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2010. Other expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, consists primarily of interest expense, which is related to our line of credit and term loan, and was $0.3 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2011, compared to $0.5 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2010. The decrease in interest expense was the result of the repayment of our subordinated notes in December 2010.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash and cash flow
As of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, we had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $0.4 million and $0.2 million, respectively. We have used, and plan to use, such cash for general corporate purposes, including working capital. As a matter of course, we do not maintain significant cash balances on hand since we are financed by a line of credit. Typically, any excess cash is automatically applied to the then outstanding line of credit balance. As such, we anticipate that we will have more than sufficient borrowing capacity to continue our operations in the normal course of business unless unforeseeable material economic events occur that are beyond our control.
As of March 31, 2011, we have negative working capital of $12.3 million and total stockholders’ deficit of $4.4 million. Included in current liabilities is unearned revenue of $6.7 million, which reflects services that are to be performed in future periods but that have been paid and/or accrued for and therefore, do not generally represent additional future cash outlay requirements. Included in current assets are deferred costs of $3.5 million which reflect costs paid for third party extended maintenance services that are being amortized over their respective service periods. The net change in the unearned revenue, offset by the deferred costs, will provide a benefit in future periods as the amounts convert to realized revenue.
In December 2010, our credit facility was increased to a total of $10.0 million, in order to provide funding for the acquisition of CMAC, Inc. In February 2011, our bank renewed our credit line for two years while increasing the total facility to $13.0 million. Our line of credit provides for borrowings based upon eligible accounts receivable. Interest accrues at prime plus 3.5%. The amounts outstanding under the line of credit at March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, were approximately $4.9 million with interest accruing at 7.5%, and $4.4 million with interest accruing at 8.0%, respectively. Availability under this line of credit was approximately $2.4 million and $2.6 million as of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively.
We also have a $3.0 million term loan payable with the same lender in 36 equal monthly installments of principal plus interest beginning on February 1, 2011, and accruing interest at a fixed rate equal to 9% per annum. The term loan is included in the overall credit facility with the financial institution of $13.0 million. The term loan is secured by substantially all of our assets. The term loan agreement includes various customary covenants, limitations and events of default. Under the term loan agreement, we must maintain a minimum fixed charge ratio increasing from at least 1.10 to 1.00 in the first quarter of 2011 to a minimum fixed charge ratio at least 1.50 to 1.00 over the life of the term loan. The term loan agreement also maintains certain additional affirmative and negative covenants, including limitations on incurring additional indebtedness. As of March 31, 2011, we were not in compliance with the fixed charge ratio covenant in the agreement. On May 20, 2011, the lender issued a waiver in regards to the non-compliance with such covenant and has amended the Loan Agreement for an additional charge of $62,500, payable immediately. Absent a modification to the existing loan covenants, it is probable that we will not be in compliance with certain covenants in the subsequent interim period. We are working with our lender in the second quarter to renegotiate such covenants.
On May 19, 2011 (the “Issuance Date”), we entered into a Note Purchase Agreement (”Purchase Agreement”) with Sigma Opportunity Fund II, LLC (“Sigma”), pursuant to which we issued $4,000,000 in Senior Subordinated Secured Notes. Principal and interest at a rate of 12% are due and payable on August 31, 2011. Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, on the Effective Date of the Merger, the maturity date of the Purchase Agreement was extended to May 31, 2012 and the interest rate was increased to 24% (or, if lower, the maximum amount allowable by law) retroactive to the Issuance Date. Total cash received under the purchase agreement was approximately $3,600,000, net of fees.
We believe that cash on hand, plus amounts anticipated to be generated from operations and from other contemplated financing transactions, whether from issuing additional long term debt or the sale of equity securities through a private placement, as well as borrowings available under our line of credit, will be sufficient to support our operations through March 31, 2012. If we are not able to raise funds through private placements, we may choose to modify our growth plans to the extent of available funding, if any, and further reduce our selling, general and administrative expenses.
For the three months ended March 31, 2011, net cash provided by operating activities was $2.0 million, primarily due to a $3.2 million decrease in accounts receivable, which was offset by a $0.3 million reduction in accrued expenses, a reduction in accounts payable of $0.5 million and net change in our unearned revenue of an additional $0.8 million. All of these have offset our net loss of $1.6 million in the current quarter. Net cash used in financing activities was $2.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011, due to the cash paid for the purchase of CMAC during the quarter. Net cash provided by financing activities was $0.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011, primarily from the net drawdown on our credit line facility.
For the three months ended March 31, 2010, net cash provided by operating activities was $0.5 million, primarily due to a $3.1 million decrease in accounts receivable, which was offset by net increase in inventory of $1.0 million, a $0.9 million reduction in accrued expenses, an increase in accounts payable of $0.6 million and net change in our unearned revenue of an additional $0.9 million. All of these have offset our net loss of $1.2 million during the three months ended March 31, 2010. Net cash used in financing activities was $0.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010, primarily from the payments of subordinated debt and financing costs.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2010 AND DECEMBER 31, 2009
For comparison purposes, all dollar amounts have been rounded to nearest million while all percentages are actual.
Revenues were $56.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2010, compared to $48.3 million for the same period ended December 31, 2009, an increase of $7.9 million or 16.4%. The increase in revenue was primarily due to the improved product availability from our principal vendor and the improved economic conditions in the U.S. which had begun in the first half of 2010, and continued throughout 2010. We have experienced increases in traditional mobility solutions revenue which has historically generated lower gross margins, while our professional services including software have continued to grow.
Cost of sales were $45.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2010, compared to $38.6 million for the same period ended December 31, 2009, an increase of $6.8 million or 17.7%.
Our gross profit was $10.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2010, compared to $9.7 million for the same period ended December 31, 2009, an increase of $1.1 million or 11.4%. Although the actual dollar amount of gross profit is higher in 2010, our realized gross margin has decreased to 19.3% in 2010, from 20.2% in the comparable period of 2009. This reduction in gross margin is directly due to the reduced gross margin of hardware product sales that were partially offset by improved gross margin of professional services and software through increased emphasis on cost control and improved utilization and efficiency of our professional services personnel and related costs.
Selling, general and administrative expenses were $9.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2010, compared to $8.0 million for the same period ended December 31, 2009, an increase of $1.6 million or 20.6%. The increase in the year ended December 31, 2010, was the result of increased commission expense associated with increased revenues and additional salaries of approximately $0.3 million. Finance and administration expenses were higher due primarily to increased professional fees and investor relations expenses associated with being a public company for an entire year of approximately $1.3 million.
Interest expense, which is related to our line of credit and subordinated debt, was $2.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2010, compared to $1.1 million for the same period ended December 31, 2009. The $1.2 million increase in interest expense was the result of higher associated interest rates and charges related to our subordinated debt and an increase in the amount of borrowings under our debt agreements including prepayment fees of $124,000 and $682,000 of acceleration of deferred financing costs and warrant expense. Our subordinated debt was fully repaid during 2010, and we ended the year with a line of credit and new term loan with a financial institution that will result in significantly lower interest charges and other costs of financing going forward. We estimate this savings to be approximately $1.0 million during 2011.
The change in other expense to $1.1 million from $0.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively, consists primarily of expenses related to a potential Merger transaction of approximately $0.3 million and an additional $0.7 million we incurred relating to an acquisition that did not materialize.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash and cash flow
We have seen our revenue increase approximately 16.4%, due to the improved economic conditions in the U.S. Our lower gross margins and increased selling, general and administrative expenses due to increased selling expenses related to increased revenues, professional expenses related to being a public company for a full year and investor relations expenses resulted in lower operating income. We believe that our strategic shift to higher margin solutions with additional software and professional service revenues will improve our results through this economically improving period. As a matter of course, we do not maintain significant cash balances on hand since we are financed by a line of credit. Typically, any excess cash is automatically applied to the then outstanding line of credit balance. As long as we continue to generate revenues, we are permitted to draw down on our line of credit to fund our normal working capital needs. As such, we anticipate that we will have more than sufficient borrowing capacity to continue our operations in the normal course of business unless unforeseeable material economic events occur that are beyond our control.
As of December 31, 2010 and 2009, we had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $0.3 million and $0.1 million, respectively. We have used, and plan to use, such cash for general corporate purposes, including working capital.
As of December 31, 2010, we have negative working capital of $8.9 million and total stockholders’ deficit of $2.9 million. As of December 31, 2009, we had negative working capital of $6.5 million and total stockholders’ deficit of $3.5 million. Included in current liabilities is unearned revenue of $5.7 million, which reflects services that are to be performed in future periods but that have been paid and/or accrued for and therefore, do not generally represent additional future cash outflow requirements. Included in current assets are deferred costs of $3.6 million which reflect costs paid for third party extended maintenance services that are being amortized over their respective service periods. The increase in the unearned revenue, offset by the deferred costs, will provide a benefit in future periods as the amounts convert to realized revenue.
In December 2010, in conjunction with our acquisition of CMAC, we issued approximately3.3 million shares of common stock valued at $945,000 to the selling shareholders of CMAC. We also sold $380,000 of Series B Preferred Stock in December 2010. Both of these contributed to the reduction of our stockholders’ deficit.
In December 2006, pursuant to a Loan and Security Agreement (“Loan Agreement”), we obtained a $6.5 million line of credit, which provides for borrowings based upon eligible accounts receivable. In March 2009, pursuant to an Amendment to the Loan Agreement (“First Amendment”), the line of credit was renewed through March 2011, and the amount available for borrowing was increased to $8.5 million. We paid an annual renewal fee of $85,000. Pursuant to the First Amendment, the rate at which interest accrues is prime plus 4%, with a potential interest rate reduction of 0.50% based on future profitability.
In December 2010, the line of credit was temporarily reduced to $7.0 million in conjunction with a new Term Loan of $3.0 million with our existing financial institution that increased the Company’s overall credit facility with the financial institution to $10.0 million. The Term Loan was used to acquire CMAC and repay all of our remaining subordinated debt. We will pay a $60,000 commitment fee over the first six quarters of the loan and will pay a final payment of $60,000, or 2% of the principal amount borrowed, at the earlier of the maturity date or date of prepayment of the Term Loan. There are no other pre-payment charges. The Term Loan accrues interest at a fixed rate of 9% and $3.0 million was outstanding at December 31, 2010. The amounts outstanding under the line of credit at December 31, 2010 and 2009, were approximately $4.4 million and $2.6 million with interest accruing at 7.5% and 8%, respectively. Availability under this line of credit was approximately $2.6 million (subject to the temporary reduction in the credit line as described above) and $4.3 million as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.
In February 2011, pursuant to a Second Amendment to the Loan Agreement (“Second Amendment”) the line of credit was renewed for an additional two year period and the amount available for borrowing was increased to $10.0 million. We paid an annual renewal fee of $100,000. The overall credit facility with our financial institution is $13.0 million.
We believe that cash on hand, plus amounts anticipated to be generated from operations and from other contemplated financing transactions, whether from issuing additional long term debt or from the sale of equity securities through a private placement, as well as borrowings available under our line of credit, will be sufficient to support our operations through December 2011. If we are not able to raise funds through private placements, we may choose to modify our growth plans to the extent of available funding, if any, and further reduce our selling, general and administrative expenses.
For the year ended December 31, 2010, net cash used in operating activities was $2.5 million, primarily due to a $2.1 million increase in accounts receivable associated with increased revenues, a decrease in inventory of $0.3 million related directly with project delivery, an increase in prepaid expenses and other current assets of $0.4 million, a $1.8 million decrease in accrued expenses, an increase in accounts payable of $2.3 million associated with increased revenues and the change in our unearned revenue, net of deferred costs, of $0.6 million associated with increased revenues. All of these offset our net loss of $2.2 million and $2.0 million non-cash expenses in the current year.
During the year ended December 31, 2009, net cash provided by operating activities was $1.4 million, primarily due to a $0.8 million increase in accounts receivable, a decrease in inventory of $1.4 million, a $0.5 million reduction in accrued expenses, a reduction in accounts payable of $0.5 million and net change in our unearned revenue of an additional $0.5 million. All of these offset our net income of $0.3 million for the year. Net cash provided by financing activities was $0.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2009, primarily from the sale of $2.5 million of debt in December 2009.
For the year ended December 31, 2010, net cash provided by financing activities was $2.6 million, primarily due to $3.0 million of borrowings under long term debt related to acquisition CMAC, $1.8 million of net borrowings from line of credit for operations, $0.6 million from exercise of employee stock options, $0.4 million from issuance of convertible preferred stock, repayment of $2.8 million of subordinated debt and $0.4 million of financing costs.
During the year ended December 31, 2009, net cash provided by financing activities was $0.6 million, primarily due to $2.5 million from sale of subordinated debt, $1.4 million of debt repayment, $0.8 million of net repayments of line of credit from operations, $0.8 million from issuance of convertible preferred stock and sale of convertible note and $0.5 million of financing costs and Holding Share liability payments.
Critical Accounting Policies
Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, which require us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Critical accounting policies are those that require the application of management’s most difficult, subjective, or complex judgments, often because of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain and that may change in subsequent periods. In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management has utilized available information, including our past history, industry standards and the current economic environment, among other factors, in forming its estimates and judgments, giving due consideration to materiality. Actual results may differ from these estimates. In addition, other companies may utilize different estimates, which may impact the comparability of our results of operations to those of companies in similar businesses. We believe that the following critical accounting policies involve a high degree of judgment and estimation:
Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
We have policies and procedures for reviewing and granting credit to all customer accounts, including:
•
|
Credit reviews of all new customer accounts,
|
•
|
Ongoing credit evaluations of current customers,
|
•
|
Credit limits and payment terms based on available credit information,
|
•
|
Adjustments to credit limits based upon payment history and the customer’s current credit worthiness, and
|
•
|
An active collection effort by regional credit functions, reporting directly to the corporate financial officers.
|
We maintain allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of our customers to make required payments. These allowances are based on both recent trends of certain customers estimated to be a greater credit risk, as well as historical trends of the entire customer pool. If the financial condition of our customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, additional allowances may be required. To mitigate this credit risk we perform periodic credit evaluations of our customers.
Inventory
Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined under the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. We periodically review our inventories and make provisions as necessary for estimated obsolete and slow-moving goods. We mark down inventory to an amount equal to the difference between cost of inventory and the estimated market value based upon assumptions about future demands, selling prices and market conditions. The creation of such provisions results in a write-down of inventory to net realizable value and a charge to cost of sales.
Goodwill and Long-Lived Assets
Goodwill represents the excess purchase price paid over the fair value of the net assets of acquired companies. Goodwill is subject to impairment testing at least annually. Goodwill is also subject to testing as necessary, if changes in circumstances or the occurrence of certain events indicate potential impairment. In assessing the recoverability of our goodwill, identified intangibles, and other long-lived assets, significant assumptions regarding the estimated future cash flows and other factors to determine the fair value of the respective assets must be made, as well as the related estimated useful lives. The fair value of goodwill and long-lived assets is estimated using a discounted cash flow valuation model and observed earnings and revenue trading multiples of identified peer companies. If these estimates or their related assumptions change in the future as a result of changes in strategy or market conditions, we may be required to record impairment charges for these assets in the period such determination was made.
Income Taxes
Income tax expense is based on reported income before income taxes. Deferred income taxes reflect the effect of temporary differences between assets and liabilities that are recognized for financial reporting purposes and the amounts that are recognized for income tax purposes. The carrying value of our deferred tax assets is dependent upon our ability to generate sufficient future taxable income in certain tax jurisdictions. Should we determine that it is not able to realize all or part of our deferred tax assets in the future, an adjustment to the deferred tax assets is expensed in the period such determination is made to an amount that is more likely than not to be realized. We presently record a valuation allowance to reduce our deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized. While we have considered future taxable income and ongoing prudent and feasible tax planning strategies in assessing the need for the valuation allowance, in the event that we were to determine that we would be able to realize our deferred tax assets in the future in excess of our net recorded amount (including valuation allowance), an adjustment to the tax valuation allowance would decrease tax expense in the period such determination was made.
Warrant Liability
We accounted for a warrant issued pursuant to the June 2009 subordinated convertible debt in accordance with the guidance on Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity, which provides that we classify the warrant instrument as a liability at its fair value and adjust the instrument to fair value at each reporting period. This liability was subject to re-measurement at each balance sheet date until exercised, and any change in fair value is recognized as a component of other income or expense. The fair value of our warrants issued in connection with private placements of securities has been estimated by management in the absence of a readily ascertainable market value using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. Because of the inherent uncertainty of valuation, the estimated value may differ significantly from the fair value that would have been used had a ready market for the warrants existed, and the difference could be material.
Revenue recognition
Revenues are generated through product sales, warranty and maintenance agreements, software customization, and professional services. Product sales are recognized when the following criteria are met (1) there is persuasive evidence that an arrangement exists; (2) delivery has occurred and title has passed to the customer, which generally happens at the point of shipment provided that no significant obligations remain; (3) the price is fixed and determinable; and (4) collectability is reasonably assured. We generate revenues from the sale of extended warranties on wireless and mobile hardware and systems. Revenue related to extended warranty and service contracts is recorded as unearned revenue and is recognized over the life of the contract and we may be liable to refund a customer for amounts paid in certain circumstances. This has not been an issue for us historically.
We also generate revenue from software customization and professional services on either a fee-for-service or fixed fee basis. Revenue from software customization and professional services that is contracted as fee-for-service, also referred to as per-diem billing, is recognized in the period in which the services are performed or delivered. Adjustments to contract price and estimated labor costs are made periodically, and losses expected to be incurred on contracts in progress are charged to operations in the period such losses are determined.
Stock-based compensation
We record the fair value of stock-based payments as an expense in our consolidated financial statements. When more precise pricing data is unavailable, we determine the fair value of stock options using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. This valuation model requires us to make assumptions and judgments about the variables used in the calculation. These variables and assumptions include the weighted-average period of time that the options granted are expected to be outstanding, the volatility of our common stock, the risk-free interest rate and the estimated rate of forfeitures of unvested stock options. Additional information on the variables and assumptions used in our stock-based compensation are described in Note 13 of the accompanying notes to our consolidated financial statements.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
There were no off-balance sheet arrangements as of June 15, 2011.
Item 3. Properties
Our corporate headquarters and sales operations, including sales administration, software development, depot operation and our financial management of DecisionPoint, are located in Foothill Ranch, California where we lease 7,500 square feet of office space. The lease expires in July 2011 and we are in process of extending it.

(*) Mr. Chaiken was appointed to the Director in October 2010.
Item 7. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence.
The Company purchases and sells certain products and services from iTEK Services, Inc. (“iTEK”), a privately held company owned by an unrelated ESOP. iTEK is affiliated with the Company through limited overlapping management and Board representation by the Company's Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”). Sales to iTEK during the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 were at no incremental margin over the Company’s actual cost. Purchases from iTEK are on similar terms that the Company would have received from an unrelated third party
The following table summarizes the transactions with iTEK for the following periods:

Additionally, through July 2010, the Company had sub-leased its facility in Foothill Ranch, CA from iTEK at a monthly rental expense of $11,763, at which time we entered into a new lease with the building’s landlord (an unrelated third party) under the same terms and conditions for a one year period expiring in July 2011. We will enter into another one year lease expiring July 2012
Included in the Company’s accounts payable are amount due to its CEO and CFO, of approximately $1,223,000 and $1,118,000 at March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. The accounts payable balance consists of purchases of products and services made on behalf of the Company and unreimbursed company travel expenses. The outstanding balance accrues interest at 25% per annum. As of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, included in the Company’s accrued expenses is interest of approximately $186,000 and $105,000, respectively.
As of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, included in the Company’s accrued expenses is deferred compensation payable to its CEO and CFO of $50,000 and $-0-, respectively.
As of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the Company has accrued interest payable to David M. Rifkin, a Director of the Company, of approximately $301,000 and $284,000, respectively, from a prior debt issuance which principal has been previously paid.
On May 19, 2011 (the “Issuance Date”), we entered into a Note Purchase Agreement (”Purchase Agreement”) with Sigma, pursuant to which we issued $4,000,000 in Senior Subordinated Secured Notes (the "Notes"). We received $3,600,000 after transaction costs upon the closing of the transaction. As of the Issuance Date, we had paid $65,000 for Sigma’s reasonable fees and expenses incurred in connection with the purchase of the Notes. In addition, $250,000 (the “Additional Fee Amount”) was withheld from the purchase price of the Notes for application towards Sigma’s fees and expenses in excess of $65,000. Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, we entered into an Advisory Services Agreement with Sigma Capital Advisors, LLC (”Sigma Capital”). Pursuant to this Agreement, Sigma Capital will provide us with business finance and organizational strategy advisory consulting and other services related to our business. Under this Agreement, we paid Sigma Capital $150,000 and will pay the Sigma Capital an additional $80,000 in cash as a result of the closing of the Merger. Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, our Board of Directors shall be comprised of 8 directors and Sigma is entitled to nominate two directors. In accordance with this provision Sigma has nominated Maydan Rothblum and as of May 20, 2011, Mr. Rothblum has been appointed to our Board of Directors. Mr. Rothblum is a Managing Director at Sigma Capital Partners, a multi-strategy, active, long-term, strategic private equity firm. Sigma Capital Advisors, LLC is the managing member of Sigma Opportunity Fund II LLC. Sigma Capital Partners owns Sigma Capital Advisors LLC.
Director Independence
The Board of Directors has determined that Messrs. Rifkin, Sheehy and Chaiken are each independent directors as this term is defined under the NASDAQ Marketplace Rules.
Item 8. Legal Proceedings
From time to time, we may become involved in various lawsuits and legal proceedings, which arise in the ordinary course of business. However, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and an adverse result in these or other matters may arise from time to time that may harm our business. We are not currently aware of any such legal proceedings or claims that we believe will have, individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or operating results.
Item 9. Market Price of and Dividends on the Registrant’s Common Equity and Related Stockholder Matters
Our common stock is currently quoted on the OTC Pink Market under the symbol “COMT”. As of June 22, 2011, our symbol will be "DPSI". The table below presents the high and low bid for our common stock for each quarter from January 1, 2009 through June 17, 2011.
Number of Stockholders
As of June 15, 2011, there were approximately 1000 holders of record of our common stock.
Dividend Policy
Common Stock – The holders of our common stock are entitled to receive dividends if and when declared by our Board of Directors out of funds legally available for distribution. Any such dividends may be paid in cash, property or shares of our common stock.
Preferred Stock - The holders of the Series A and Series B Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive, when, as and if declared by the Board of Directors, dividends at an annual rate of 8% of the stated value. Dividends shall be cumulative and shall accrue on each share of the outstanding Series A and B Preferred Stock from the date of its issue.
We have not paid any dividends since our inception, and it is not likely that any dividends on our common stock will be declared in the foreseeable future. Any dividends will be subject to the discretion of our Board of Directors, and will depend upon, among other things, our operating and financial condition and our capital requirements and general business conditions.
Securities Authorized for Issuance under Equity Compensation Plans
In January 2004, we established the 2004 Incentive and Non-Incentive Stock Option Plan (“2004 Plan”) which was originally adopted by the Board of Directors of DPS Group and was assumed by us on June 18, 2009, in connection with the Merger. The 2004 Plan authorizes 824,122 shares of common stock for issuance. Under the 2004 Plan, common stock incentives may be granted to officers, employees, directors, consultants, and advisors. Incentives under the Plan may be granted in any one or a combination of the following forms: (a) incentive stock options and non-statutory stock options; (b) stock appreciation rights (c) stock awards; (d) restricted stock and (e) performance shares.
In June 2009, we established the DecisionPoint Systems, Inc. Incentive Stock Plan ("2009 Plan") to retain directors, executives and selected employees and consultants and reward them for making contributions to our success. These objectives are accomplished by making long-term incentive awards under the 2009 Plan in the form of options, stock awards and restricted stock purchase offers. The total number of common shares which may be purchased or granted under the 2009 Plan shall not exceed 125,000.
Upon the closing of the Merger, the Company granted 125,000 options under 2009 Plan and 31,250 options under the 2004 plan.
In connection with the Merger on June 15, 2011, the 2004 and 2009 Plans, (collectively, the “Plans”) were assumed by the Company and are administered by the Board of Directors, or a committee appointed by the Board of Directors, which determines recipients and types of awards to be granted, including the number of shares subject to the awards, the exercise price and the vesting schedule. The total number of shares authorized under the Plans is 949,122. The term of stock options granted under the Plans cannot exceed ten years. Options shall not have an exercise price less than 100% of the fair market value of our common stock on the grant date, and generally vest over a period of five years. If the individual possesses more than ten percent of the combined voting power of all classes of our stock, the exercise price shall not be less than 110% of the fair market of a share of common stock on the date of grant.
Provided below is information regarding our equity compensation plans under which our equity securities are authorized for issuance as of December 31, 2010, subject to our available authorized shares.

On the Effective Date of the Merger, the Company has granted to certain of its employees and directors, 156,250 options at an exercise price of $2.40 per share based on the last trading day’s closing share price immediately before the Merger on June 15, 2011.
Item 10. Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities
None other than those more fully described in Item 1.01
Item 11. Description of Registrant’s Securities to be Registered
The total number of shares which the Company has the authority to issue is one hundred ten million (110,000,000), consisting of one hundred million (100,000,000) shares of common stock, par value of $0.001 per share and ten million (10,000,000) shares of preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share. Holders of the Company’s common stock are entitled to one vote for each share on all matters submitted to a stockholder vote. Holders of the Company’s common stock are entitled to share in all dividends that the Board of Directors, at its discretion, declares from legally available funds.
The Board of Directors has authorized the designation of 500,000 shares of the Company’s preferred Stock as Series A Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock and 500,000 shares of Series B Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock. The Certificates of Designations for the Company’s' Series A and B Preferred Stock that are being filed with the State of Delaware will be in substantially the same as the DecisionPoint Systems Series A and B certificates of Designation which existed at the time of the Merger.
Item 12. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
The Company’s certificates of incorporation contain certain provisions permitted under Delaware General Corporation law relating to liability of directors. Directors have no liability to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director except in certain circumstances where such liability may not be eliminated under applicable law.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling us pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Company has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is, therefore, unenforceable.

The Company formerly known as Comamtech, Inc.
On June 21, 2011, the Company dismissed Raymond Chabot Grant Thornton (“Raymond”) as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm. The dismissal was be approved by the Company’s Board of Directors on June 21, 2011.
During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, Raymond’s reports on the Company’s financial statements did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, and was not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.
During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009 and the subsequent interim period through June 21, 2011, (i) there were no disagreements between the Company and Raymond on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure which, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Raymond, would have caused Raymond to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in connection with its reports on the Company’s financial statements; and (ii) there were no reportable events as described in paragraph (a)(1)(v) of Item 304 of Regulation S-K.
On June 21, 2011, the Company provided Raymond with a copy of the disclosures it is making in response to Item 4.01 on this Form 8-K, and has requested that Raymond furnish it with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether it agrees with the above statements. A copy of this letter is filed as Exhibit 16.1 to this amended 8-K.
On June 21, 2011, the Company’s Board of Directors approved the engagement of BDO USA, LLP as its independent registered public accounting firm for the Company’s fiscal year ending December 31, 2011.
During the years ended December 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, and the subsequent interim period through June 21, 2011, the Company did not consult with BDO USA, LLP regarding either (i) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company’s financial statements; or (ii) any matter that was either the subject of a disagreement (as defined in paragraph (a)(1)(iv) of Item 304 of Regulation S-K and the related instructions thereto) or a reportable event (as described in paragraph (a)(1)(v) of Item 304 of Regulation S-K).
DecisionPoint Systems, Inc.
On March 28, 2011, the previous corporate entity of DecisionPoint Systems, Inc. dismissed Crowe Horwath LLP as its independent registered public accounting firm. On March 28, 2011, we engaged BDO USA, LLP (“BDO”) as our new independent registered public accounting firm. Our Board of Directors and audit committee has approved the dismissal of Crowe Horwath LLP and the appointment of BDO as our new independent registered public accounting firm.
During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the subsequent interim periods through March 28, 2011, there were no disagreements between our company and Crowe Horwath LLP on any matter listed under Item 304 Section (a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K, including accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure which, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Crowe Horwath LLP would have caused Crowe Horwath LLP to make reference to the matter in its reports on our financial statements. For the fiscal years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, the reports of Crowe Horwath LLP on our financial statements for those fiscal years then ended did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, nor were they qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principle.
During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the subsequent periods through March 28, 2011, prior to engaging BDO, we did not consult BDO regarding either:
1. the application of accounting principles to any specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on our financial statements, and neither a written report was provided to our company nor oral advice was provided that BDO concluded was an important factor considered by our company in reaching a decision as to the accounting, auditing or financial reporting issue; or
2. any matter that was either subject of disagreement or event, as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instruction to Item 304 of Regulation S-K, or a reportable event, as that term is explained in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K.
We provided Crowe Horwath LLP with a copy on Form 8-K on March 28, 2011, prior to its filing with the SEC, and requested that they furnish us with a letter addressed to the SEC stating whether they agree with the statements made in this Current Report on Form 8-K, and if not, stating the aspects with which they do not agree.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1 - DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
Description of Business
DecisionPoint Systems, Inc., (“DecisionPoint”, “Company”) is an enterprise mobility systems integrator that sells and installs mobile computing and wireless systems that are used both within a company’s facilities in conjunction with wireless networks and in the field using carrier-based wireless networks. These systems generally include mobile computers, mobile application software, and related data capture equipment including bar code scanners and radio frequency identification (“RFID”) readers. The Company also provides professional services including consulting, proprietary and third party software and software customization as an integral part of its customized solutions for its customers.
DecisionPoint Systems, Inc., formerly known as Canusa Capital Corp. (“Canusa”) was incorporated on December 27, 2006, under the laws of the State of Delaware. On June 18, 2009, the Company completed a merger transaction (the “Merger”) whereby DecisionPoint Systems Holding, Inc., a California corporation (“Holding”) merged with and into DecisionPoint Acquisition, Inc., a Delaware corporation which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Canusa (“Merger Sub”), with Merger Sub surviving the Merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Canusa under the name DecisionPoint Systems Group, Inc. (“DPS Group”). This transaction was treated as a stock split for accounting purposes. Following the Merger, the business conducted by the Company is now the business conducted by DPS Group prior to the Merger. In addition, the directors and officers of the Company were replaced by the directors and officers of DPS Group.
NOTE 2 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION, SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND RESTATEMENT
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the annual consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of the Company’s management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all of the adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals and adjustments) necessary to present fairly the consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the Company at the dates and for the periods indicated. The interim results for the period ended March 31, 2011, are not necessarily indicative of results for the full 2011 fiscal year or any other future interim periods.
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, DPS Group and CMAC, Inc. (“CMAC”). CMAC was acquired by the Company on December 31, 2010, and as such, the operating results of CMAC are included in the Company’s consolidated results of operations beginning on January 1, 2011. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company operates in only one business segment. The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the recorded amounts reported therein. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Certain accounting policies involve judgments and uncertainties to such an extent that there is reasonable likelihood that materially different amounts could have been reported under different conditions, or if different assumptions had been used. The Company evaluates its estimates and assumptions on a regular basis. The Company uses historical experience and various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances to form the basis for making judgments about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates and assumptions used in preparation of the consolidated financial statements.
These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by management and should be read in conjunction with the audit
