FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

Statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q which are not historical facts are forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. All statements, other than statements of historical facts regarding Accelerated Building Concepts Corporation’s (the “Company’s”) business strategy, future operations, financial position, estimated revenues or losses, projected costs, prospects, plans and objectives are forward looking statements. These forward-looking statements appear in a number of places and can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “expect,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “predict,” “future,” “intend,” “hopes” or “certain” or the negative of these terms or other variations or comparable terminology.
 

Management cautions that forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those projected in such forward-looking statements including, without limitation, the following: the future prospects for and growth of the Company and the industries in which it operates, the level of the Company’s future sales, customer demand and cost of raw materials, the Company’s ability to maintain its business model; the Company’s ability to retain and recruit key personnel; the Company’s ability to maintain its competitive strengths and to effectively compete against its competitors; the Company’s short-term decisions and long-term strategies for the future and its ability to implement and maintain such decisions and strategies, including its strategies: (i) to focus on manufacturing revenue growth from an increasing base of customers, (ii) to focus on leasing revenue growth from an increasing base of leasable assets, and (iii) to create infrastructure capabilities that can provide prompt and efficient project bidding, expedited manufacturing, and rapid delivery; the demand by the educational market (and the K-12 market in particular) for the Company’s modular products; the effect of delays or interruptions in the passage of statewide and local facility bond measures on the Company’s operations; the effect of changes in applicable law, and policies relating to the use of temporary buildings on the Company’s modular sales and leasing revenues, including with respect to class size and building standards; the effects of changes in the level of state funding to public schools and the use of classrooms that meet the Department of Education requirements; the Company’s ability to maintain and upgrade modular equipment to comply with changes in applicable law and customer preference; the Company’s strategy to effectively implement its expansion into Georgia and other new markets in the U.S.; and the Company’s reliance on its information technology systems; the Company’s engaging in and ability to consummate future acquisitions; manufacturers’ ability to produce products to the Company’s specification on a timely basis; the Company’s ability to maintain good relationships with school districts, other customers, manufacturers, and other suppliers; the impact of debt covenants on the Company’s flexibility in running its business and the effect of an event of default on the Company’s results of operations; the effect of interest rate fluctuations; the Company’s ability to manage its credit risk and accounts receivable; the timing and amounts of future capital expenditures and the Company’s ability to meet its needs for working capital including its ability to negotiate lines of credit; the Company’s ability to track technology trends to make good buy-sell decisions with respect to electronic test equipment; the effect of changes to the Company’s accounting policies and impact of evolving interpretation and implementation of such policies; the risk of litigation and claims against the Company; the impact of a change in the Company’s overall effective tax rate as a result of the Company’s mix of business levels in various tax jurisdictions in which it does business; the adequacy of the Company’s insurance coverage; the impact of a failure by third parties to manufacture our products timely or properly; the level of future warranty costs of modular structures that we sell; the effect of seasonality on the Company’s business; and the Company’s ability to pass on increases in its costs of modular structures, including manufacturing costs, operating expenses and interest expense through increases in rental rates and selling prices. Further, our future business, financial condition and results of operations could differ materially from those anticipated by such forward-looking statements and are subject to risks and uncertainties including the risks set forth above and the “Risk Factors” set forth in this Form 10-Q. Moreover, neither we assume nor any other person assumes responsibility for the accuracy and completeness of the forward-looking statements.

 

Forward-looking statements are made only as of the date of this Form 10-Q and are based on management’s reasonable assumptions, however these assumptions can be wrong or affected by known or unknown risks and uncertainties. No forward-looking statement can be guaranteed and subsequent facts or circumstances may contradict, obviate, undermine or otherwise fail to support or substantiate such statements. Readers should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements and are cautioned that any such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance. We are under no duty to update any of the forward-looking statements after the date of this Form 10-Q to conform such statements to actual results or to changes in our expectations.

[GRAPHIC OMITTED]

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 

Organization and Operation
 

The financial information included herein is unaudited; however, such information reflects all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of results for the interim period. The results of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements and footnotes have been condensed and, therefore, do not contain all required disclosures. Reference should be made to the Company’s annual audited financial statement for the year ended December 31, 2007.
 

Accelerated Building Concepts Corporation (“ABCC” or the “Company”), was formerly known as K2 Digital, Inc., a Delaware corporation formed in 1993. In August 2007, the Board approved a name change. Reference to ABCC will include the period prior to the name change.
 

Through August 2001, ABCC (together with its wholly-owned subsidiary, collectively, the "Company") was a strategic digital services company that provided consulting and development services including analysis, planning, systems design and implementation. In August 2001, the Company completed the sale of fixed and intangible assets essential to its business operations to an unrelated party, Integrated Information Systems, Inc. ("IIS") and effectively became a "shell" company with no revenues and continuing general and administrative expenses.
 

On August 10, 2007, ABCC’s wholly-owned subsidiary, K2 Acquisition Corporation (“K2AC”), merged with New Century Structures, Inc. (“NCSI”), a Florida corporation, with NCSI the surviving entity.
 

NCSI, incorporated in July 2001, provides architectural / engineering, manufacturing and construction services for modular facilities utilizing concrete, steel framed, and structural insulated panels (SIPs) for use in commercial, educational, municipalities and residential developments. The Company utilizes processes that meet the requirements for classrooms as well as several government agencies, including NASA and The Smithsonian.

Basis of Consolidation
 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries and have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
 

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, NCSI and Sustainable Structures Leasing, Inc. (“SSL”). All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Intercompany transactions include the loans from the parent to its subsidiaries.

Net Earnings (Loss) Per Share
 

In accordance with SFAS No. 128, Earnings Per Share, basic net earnings (loss) per common share is computed by dividing the net earnings (loss) for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share was computed using the weighted average number of common and dilutive common stock equivalent shares outstanding during the period. Dilutive common stock equivalent shares consist of stock options which are not utilized when the effect is anti-dilutive.

Segment Information
 

In accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 131, Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information, the Company is required to report financial and descriptive information about its reportable operating segments. The Company identifies its operating segments based on how management internally evaluates separate financial information, business activities and management responsibility. As of June 30, 2008, the Company had two operating segments.

 


NOTE 2 – RESTATEMENT OF PRIOR PERIOD CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 

Balance Sheet, Statement of Operations and Statement of Cash Flows
 

In connection with the audit of the Company’s financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2007, certain errors associated with the Company’s recognition of the merger of NCSI with K2AC for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 were required to be restated. The error related to the recording of the entire nine months ended September 30, 2007 for NCSI, not the period August 10, 2007 through September 30, 2007.

The following table presents the impact of the balance sheet misclassification on the Company’s previously reported consolidated balance sheets for the period ended September 30, 2007.

NOTE 3 – ACQUISITIONS, MERGERS AND NEW SUBSIDIARIES FORMED

K2 Acquisition Corp.
 

On January 24, 2006, the Company completed the sale of 1,000,000 shares of its convertible preferred shares to NPOWR at a purchase of $165,000. K2, its wholly-owned subsidiary, K2 Acquisition Corp. ("Merger Sub") and NPOWR intended to enter into a merger agreement whereby Merger Sub would merge with and into NPOWR. In connection with the merger, the shareholders of NPOWR would have acquired a controlling interest in K2. Further, prior to closing of the transaction, K2 was entitled to issue up to 500,000 stock options with an exercise price of $0.11 per share to its officers and directors.
 

On July 27, 2006, the Company and NPOWR determined to abandon the contemplated merger between the parties. Pursuant to the LOI, NPOWR was obligated to pay all expenses of the Company as specified in the LOI to the date of termination. On September 29, 2006, NPOWR executed a promissory note in the amount of $18,253 representing amounts due to the Company under the LOI. The note has been paid in full.
 

On January 29, 2007, the Company signed a letter of intent with NCSI a Florida corporation, whereby NCSI will merge with Merger Sub and NCSI intend to enter into a merger agreement whereby Merger Sub will merge with and into NCSI. In connection with the merger, the shareholders of NCSI will acquire a controlling interest in K2. NCSI's designees will be appointed as directors of K2 and the Board and shareholders will approve a 1 x 10 reverse split of K2 shares such that the current shareholders of K2 own approximately 500,000 post merger shares representing 10% of the post merger shares issued and outstanding. In connection with this transaction, Avante Holding Group, Inc. (“Avante”, see Note 6 - Related Parties) entered into an agreement with NPOWR Digital Media, Inc. to acquire 1,000,000 shares of K2 preferred stock which is convertible into 1,500,000 common shares.
 

On April 27, 2007, the Company signed a Merger Agreement with NCSI, whereby NCSI would merge with Merger Sub. In connection with the merger, the shareholders of NCSI would acquire a controlling interest in K2. NCSI's designees would be appointed as directors of K2 and the Board and shareholders would approve a 1 x 10 reverse split of K2 shares such that the current shareholders of K2 own approximately 500,000 post merger shares representing 10% of the post merger shares issued and outstanding.
 

Under the terms of the termination of the agreement with NPOWR, certain amounts owed to K2 under the LOI were payable in the form of a note. With the acquisition of the NPOWR preferred stock by Avante, $13,500 due under the note was assumed by Avante. The note was paid in full during the quarter ended June 30, 2007.

On August 10, 2007, the merger between Merger Sub and NCSI was completed with NCSI being the surviving company.
 

New Century Structures, Inc.
 

NCSI of Florida was incorporated in May 2001 under the name of M3'T, Inc. In July 2003, the Company changed its name to New Century Structures, Inc.  The Company was originally incorporated as an "S" Corporation. In 2006, the Company filed with the Internal Revenue Service to change its filing status to a "C" Corporation. 

 

Sustainable Structures Leasing, Inc.
 

SSL of Florida, formerly known as Sustainable Structures Leasing, LLC, was incorporated on April 20, 2005. SSL was acquired by the Company on October 15, 2007, for $100.

Depreciation expense was $81,012 and $124,821for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 and the year ended December 31, 2007, respectively.

On September 29, 2008, SSL sold two buildings which were purchased to be leased to a third party under a multi-year lease plan. SSL had previously recorded the asset purchased for $1,150,000 as a fixed asset in 2008. The sale of the asset was for $1,050,000 therefore a loss of $100,000 was recognized on the disposal of an asset. See the discussion on the Gulfstream project in Note 7 – Related Parties. Each building had a projected lease income of $658,770 for a 5 year period and, if the lease was extended for the full 20 years, as expected, the value would have been approximately $1.7 million for each building with the Company retaining ownership of the buildings at the end of the lease and after paying for them with the initial five-year lease.  Due to the lack of adequate funding ultimately causing cost overruns on the first building, and the forced sale of the two buildings, the Company lost approximately $1.0 million up to $2.25 million in lease income.

This lease is being investigated by the Company. The vehicle in question was provided in January 2007 but has not been useable as it was never able to be registered to obtain a license tag as the vehicle title was not available. Therefore, as the Company was not able to use the vehicle, it will address the overbilling for the vehicle in the lawsuit against Avante / Hawkins (see Note 10 – Subsequent Events). The payments for the vehicle have historically been added to the Avante line of credit therefore are considered as paid. The Company is seeking an adjustment to this obligation.


 

NOTE 5 – COMMITMENTS
 

The Company previously utilized the services of Avante Holding Group, Inc. as it’s Administrative Consultant in Melbourne, Florida who occupies a building owned by GAMI, LLC (“GAMI”, see Note 7 - Related Parties). The terms of the agreement were monthly payments of $4,000 expiring May 31, 2012. On September 17, 2008, the Company notified GAMI on the intent to vacate the space and cancel this lease. Upon investigation, the Company has determined that the lease was never executed and seeks an adjustment to this obligation.
 

The Company leases the property where its manufacturing operation is located. The lease expired on December 31, 2007 and is now a month-to-month lease. Monthly lease payments are $4,000.

There are no future minimum obligations.

 

NOTE 6 - BUSINESS SEGMENTS
 

The Company operates primarily in two segments: manufacturing division (NCSI) and leasing division (SSL).
 

Information concerning the revenues and operating income (loss) for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, and the identifiable assets for the two segments in which the Company operates are shown in the following table:

NOTE 7 – RELATED PARTIES

Michael W. Hawkins, formerly was a Director and the Vice President of Finance for NCSI, is also CEO and principal shareholder for Avante Holding Group, Inc (“Avante”) as it is owned by GAMI (GAMI is owned by Mr. Hawkins and his wife) of which he is the Managing Member. Avante and GAMI each own shares of the Company’s common stock. Mr. Hawkins, through his direct and indirect ownership of shares, owned approximately 42.2% of the common stock, 25% of the Series A preferred stock, 100% of the Series B preferred stock, and 28.4% of the Series D preferred stock of NCSI prior to the merger with K2. These preferred shares were converted into common stock at closing.



 

NCSI has contracted with Avante for certain investment banking and consulting services to be provided pursuant to two agreements between NCSI and Avante. These agreements were suspended on September 17, 2008 and discontinued on October 18, 2008. Certain legal remedies for the Company have been addressed in a suit filed on October 28, 2008 (see Note 10 – Subsequent Events). Avante does not recognize the suspension or cancellation of this agreement.
 

NCSI and Avante entered into a Consulting Agreement on January 1, 2006 to provide corporate guidance and financial and accounting services. As compensation, Avante received $10,000 per month and bonus compensation. Under this agreement Avante was to provide a Chief Financial Officer and a Chief Operating Officer. The term of this agreement was for three years with one additional automatic three-year extension. This agreement was suspended on September 17, 2008 and discontinued on October 18, 2008. Certain legal remedies for the Company have been addressed in a suit filed on October 28, 2008 (see Note 10 – Subsequent Events). Avante does not recognize the suspension or cancellation of this agreement.

On May 31, 2005, NCSI and Avante entered into a Revolving Credit Agreement for $500,000. The terms of the Agreement includes interest at the rate of prime plus 4%. The Agreement terminated on May 31, 2006 with an available extension of one year at the discretion of the Lender. On May 31, 2006, Avante renewed the agreement for one year. An Amendment to the Agreement was executed in December 2006 providing an additional $500,000 credit for a total of $1,000,000. As of September 30, 2008, the balance due to Avante under this Agreement was $572,729. In August 2007, a portion of the outstanding balance under the note was converted into 2,000,000 shares of common stock. In February 2008, $135,000 was converted into 300,000 shares of common stock. This agreement was suspended on September 17, 2008 and discontinued on October 18, 2008. Certain legal remedies for the Company have been addressed in a suit filed on October 28, 2008 (see Note 10 – Subsequent Events). The validity of the stock issued in February 2008 is being reviewed by the Board of Directors. The Company is in technical default of this agreement.
 

NCSI and Avante entered into an Exclusive Mergers and Acquisitions Services Agreement on January 1, 2006 to provide merger and acquisition consulting services. The term of the agreement is for three years. Compensation is based upon a double Lehman Formula. This agreement was suspended on September 17, 2008 and discontinued on October 18, 2008. Certain legal remedies for the Company have been addressed in a lawsuit filed on October 28, 2008 (see Note 10 – Subsequent Events). Avante does not recognize the suspension or cancellation of this agreement.
 

Michael W. Hawkins has personally guaranteed several obligations with the primary guarantee to Regions Bank. On September 25, 2008, Regions Bank filed a lawsuit against the Company and certain individuals (see Note 9 - Legal Proceedings) alleging a default under the terms of the loan agreement. The amount claimed is approximately $427,000. The case is being held pending a mediation arbitration.
 
In addition to the various notes identified above, Mr. Hawkins also personally guaranteed the Company note payable balance with Wells Fargo associated with the financing of a cement truck. The cement truck was sold on November 9, 2007.

 

On July 1, 2006, GAMI contracted with Alternative Construction by ProSteel Builders, Inc. (“ACP”, f/k/a ProSteel Builders Corporation) for the construction of a new office building for GAMI located in Melbourne, Florida. ACP subcontracted a portion of the construction to NCSI. The full contract value with ACP was $742,500. The contract, with change orders, between ACP and NCSI was $993,930. All balances due to the Company as of June 30, 2007 were paid in full. The contract and all related activities were done as an arms length transaction.
 

On May 31, 2007, the Company allegedly leased office space for its corporate office from GAMI for $4,000 per month for five years. The lease has two renewable five year periods. The Company is seeking an adjustment and termination of this obligation (see Note 5 – Commitments).
 
SSL, formerly known as Sustainable Structures Leasing, LLC, was incorporated on April 20, 2005, by Joseph J. Sorci and Avante Holding Group, Inc. SSL was acquired by the Company on October 15, 2007, for $100.
 

On January 11, 2008, the Company’s subsidiary Sustainable Structures, Inc. entered into a contract to build and lease two buildings to Gulfstream Aerospace, Inc. (“Gulfstream”). The lease contract with Gulfstream was viewed by the Company as the first of many such contracts with Gulfstream which were expected to yield significant long term revenue to ABCC beyond the first five year lease term. ABCC was unable to finance these contracts through conventional methods. Alternative Construction Technologies, Inc. (“ACT”) a company related to ABCC by common ownership of stock and common management by Michael W. Hawkins who proposed, on a one-time emergency basis, to finance the construction of the buildings utilizing the ACT line of credit. The costs of financing the lease of $1,040,000, plus interest and other consideration of approximately $110,000 would have been borne by ABCC, and ABCC would have recognized a loss of approximately $315,300 on the initial five year lease contract, but would have made a profit from additional lease periods and would have owned the building assets. While the transaction between ACT and ABCC was not entered into at arms length, given the credit worthiness of ABCC’s customer, and the enhancement of a business relationship for ABCC, management of the Company determined that the financing was in the Company’s best, long-term, interest. It was expected that future contracts with this customer would have been financed through conventional sources and would have been profitable. ABCC was not able to financially complete the second building or maintain the leased buildings and was therefore forced to sell the assets and lease agreements to a third party for $1,050,000 on September 29, 2008 to avoid a lawsuit threatened by Gulfstream.


 

Joseph Sorci, the CEO and Chairman for the Company, is also an employee for Florida Architects, Inc. (“FLA”). FLA performs various architectural roles for the Company in conjunction with evaluating, bidding, planning and actual building reviews of the Company’s projects. All transactions are conducted as an arms length transaction. As of September 30, 2008, the balance due FLA was $72,706 (see Note 10 – Subsequent Events).
 
Due to Shareholder consists of the following balances as of September 30, 2008 to the respective related parties: Avante/GAMI/Hawkins, $606,456; Joseph Sorci (includes FLA), $271,994; Thomas G. Amon, $98,209; and Ralph “Hank” Henry, $15,000.

 

Joseph Sorci has personally guaranteed multiple obligations. The primary guarantees are with Regions Bank (see Note 9 – Legal Proceedings), Weaver Precast of Florida, LLC, Caterpillar Financing, Bank of America, as well as various vendors.
 
Ralph “Hank” Henry, a Director of the Company, has personally guaranteed several obligations with various vendors. See Note 10 – Subsequent Events.

NOTE 9 – LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
 

On October 2, 2006, NCSI was named in a lawsuit captioned New Millennium Enterprises, LLC and Phoenixsurf.com, LLC v. Michael W. Hawkins, et. al. U.S. District Court, Middle District of Georgia, 3: 06-CV-84 (CDC). The lawsuit alleges violations of the Georgia Securities Act, Georgia Fair Business Practices Act, Federal Securities laws and certain other unspecified laws in connection with the investment by Plaintiffs of $180,000 in NCSI and seeks rescission of this investment. Plaintiffs amended their complaint on April 11, 2007. NCSI filed an answer to the amended complaint denying all essential allegations of the complaint and asserting affirmative defenses showing why the plaintiffs are not entitled to the relief sought. In addition, NCSI filed Counterclaims against the Plaintiffs and Third Party claims against individual officers and directors of Plaintiff, alleging a malicious interference with the NCSI’s business and business relations, conspiracy to interfere with our business, libel and slander, and violation of rights under Title IX of the Organized Crime Control Act of 1970 as amended. The Parties are to establish a consolidated plan of discovery in 2008. The Company believes it has meritorious defenses to the claims and intends to vigorously defend this lawsuit and to pursue its counterclaims. Avante has filed certain actions in Brevard County, FL, not including the parties associated with the potential liability, and has won the lawsuit with a judgment against the parties currently suing NCSI. The Company has requested legal advice as to the legality of Avante, working on behalf of NCSI and causing the legal action against NCSI, not including NCSI as a party to potential recoveries.



 
In 2007, the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) filed notice against NCSI for non-payment of payroll taxes for certain periods in 2006 and 2007. NCSI negotiated a settlement agreement to make payments to rectify the balance over a specified period of time. In the second quarter of 2008, the Company discontinued making the payments. NCSI is renegotiating with the IRS for a new settlement agreement that will finalize the payments by no later than December 2009.
 
The IRS and the State of Florida are currently seeking payment for unpaid unemployment taxes which were the responsibility of Avante to pay under its contract as Administrative Consultant. The unpaid taxes relate to 2007.
 

On September 25, 2008, Regions Bank filed a suit captioned Regions Bank v. New Century Structures, Inc.; Joseph J. Sorci; Michael W. Hawkins; Avante Holding Group, Inc.; Ferguson Enterprises, Inc.; and Cyberfactor, LLC in the Circuit Court of the Eighteenth Judicial Circuit in Brevard County, Florida, alleging a default under the terms of the loan agreement. The amount claimed is approximately $400,000. The case is being held pending a mediation arbitration.

NCSI has been sued by several vendors, each for less than $20,000 and by one for approximately $35,000. The Company believes that each will be settled.

The Company maintains a reserve for legal expenses for some of the cases through trust accounts with the attorneys.
 

NOTE 10 SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On October 28, 2008, the Company filed a suit captioned Accelerated Building Concepts Corp., New Century Structures, Inc., and Sustainable Structures, Inc. v. Avante Holding Group, Inc. and Michael W. Hawkins, in the Circuit Court of the Eighteenth Judicial Circuit, in Brevard County, Florida.
 
On November 6, 2008 a majority of the shareholders filed and delivered to the Company consent to action for the removal of Mr. Sorci, Mr. Henry, and Mr. Johnson from the Board of Directors and the removal of Mr. Sorci as the CEO. The shareholders elected Mr. Hawkins and Mr. Timothy Daley to the Board of Directors. Management has contested this written consent as filed in a lawsuit (see Note 10 – Subsequent Events) and continues to operate the business. While no assurance can be given, the parties hope to settle this matter in the first quarter of 2009.

On November 10, 2008, the Company filed a Plaintiffs’ Verified Emergency Motion For Temporary Injunction (the “Motion”) against Avante Holding Group, Inc. and Michael W. Hawkins in Accelerated Building Concepts Corporation, et al v. Avante Holding Group, Inc. and Michael W. Hawkins, in the Circuit Court of the Eighteenth Judicial Circuit, in Brevard County, Florida.
 

On November 11, 2008, the Board of Directors of the Company filled a vacant position on the Board of Directors, and made modifications to Officer Positions. Sin Li was removed by the Board of Directors from his position of Interim Chief Financial Officer. Bruce Harmon was appointed to the Board and elected to serve as Interim Chief Financial Officer. Mr. Harmon served as the Interim Chief Financial Officer and Director for the Company from August 2007 through May 2008. Thomas G. Amon, Esquire was removed from his positions as Corporate Counsel and Secretary.
 
On November 18, 2009, Mr. Hawkins delivered a letter to the Hernando County School District stating that he was the Chairman of the Company and that all payments regarding the current Filed House Project be sent to him. As a result, the District will not make payments on the project except as agreed upon by Mr. Hawkins’ and Mr. Sorci’s attorneys.
Currently, the project is on hold and may cause a lawsuit by the school district against the Company.

          


 

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2008

The following Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contains forward-looking statements under federal securities laws. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve a number of risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from those indicated by forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including but not limited to those set forth under this Item, as well as those discussed in Part II - Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” and elsewhere in this document and those that may be identified from time to time in our reports and registration statements filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
 

This discussion should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and related Notes included in Part I – Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the Consolidated Financial Statements and related Notes and the Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 14, 2008.

DESCRIPTION OF COMPANY:
 

The Company is a holding company that currently has two operating subsidiaries, New Century Structures, Inc. (“NCSI”), an entity which provides design, manufacturing, and construction services for modular and component building facilities utilizing concrete and steel and structural insulated panels (SIPs) for use by commercial, educational clients and other government agencies, and Sustainable Structures Leasing, Inc. (“SSL”), an entity which provides leasing capabilities to customers of the Company on either a lease or lease-purchase basis.
 

On August 10, 2007, ABCC acquired all of the outstanding common stock of NCSI. For accounting purposes, the acquisition has been treated as a recapitalization of NCSI with NCSI as the acquirer (reverse acquisition). The historical financial statements prior to August 10, 2007 are those of NCSI.

OVERVIEW:
 

The Company is a design, manufacturing, and construction company, engaged in the construction of commercial, government and educational buildings in Florida.
 

Founded in 1993, the Company was originally a digital professional services company that, until August 2001, historically provided consulting and development services, including analysis, planning, systems design, creation and implementation. In August 2001, upon the sale of assets to Integrated Information Systems, Inc., the Company effectively ceased operations.
 

On January 29, 2007, the Company signed a letter of intent with New Century Structures, Inc. ("NCSI") a Florida corporation, whereby NCSI would merge with the Company. K2 Acquisition Corp. ("Merger Sub") and NCSI intend to enter into a merger agreement whereby Merger Sub would merge with and into NCSI. In connection with the merger, the shareholders of NCSI will acquire a controlling interest in K2. NCSI's designees will be appointed as directors of K2 and the Board and shareholders will approve a 1 for 10 reverse split of K2 shares such that the current shareholders of K2 own 540,516 post merger shares representing 10% of the post merger shares issued and outstanding. In connection with this transaction, Avante Holding Group, Inc. entered into an agreement with NPOWR Digital Media, Inc. to acquire 1,000,000 shares of K2 preferred stock which is convertible into 150,000 post merger common shares.
 

On April 27, 2007, the Company signed a Merger Agreement with New Century Structures, Inc. ("NCSI") a Florida corporation, whereby NCSI would merge with the Company. K2 Acquisition Corp. ("Merger Sub"). In connection with the merger, the shareholders of NCSI will acquire a controlling interest in K2. NCSI's designees will be appointed as directors of K2 and the Board and shareholders will approve a 1 x 10 reverse split of K2 shares such that the current shareholders of K2 own approximately 500,000 post merger shares representing 10% of the post merger shares issued and outstanding. In connection with this transaction, Avante Holding Group, Inc., an affiliate of NCSI, has acquired from NPOWR 1,000,000 shares of K2 preferred stock which is convertible into 1,500,000 common shares.
 

Incorporated in Florida in July 2001, NCSI provides architectural/engineering, manufacturing and construction services for modular facilities utilizing concrete and structural insulated panels (SIPS) for use in commercial, educational and municipalities and residential developments. The Company utilizes processes that meet the scrutiny for classrooms as well as several government agencies, including NASA and the Smithsonian.
 

On August 10, 2007, the merger between NCSI and Merger Sub was completed. The former shareholders of NCSI were issued 4,334,429 shares of the Company’s common stock. The Company completed its 1 for 10 reverse split. The Company changed its name from K2 Digital, Inc. to Accelerated Building Concepts Corporation.
 

The following Management Discussion and Analysis should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and accompanying notes included in this Form 10-QSB. 


 

COMPARISON OF THE THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2008 TO THE THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2007

Results of Operations
 

Total revenues increased to $237,771 from $110,972, respectively for the three months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007. The increase of $126,799 (114.3%) resulted primarily from two major contracts issued during the second quarter but could not be built then due to the lack of funding in which to fulfill contractual obligations and the inability to bond work. The Company has three Indefinite Quantity Contracts with various school boards which have not ordered classrooms since 2007, the inception of this agreement. According to the September 2007 McGraw-Hill Construction (not incorporated in this Form 10-Q), the school markets were at a virtue standstill in 2007. The impact of 2007 has continued into 2008 and is expected to continue into 2009.
 

Cost of sales was $747,313 and $265,699, respectively for the three months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007. As a percent of revenue, the cost of sales related to the manufacturing division which was 314.3%. The manufacturing division recorded a loss on the contract with Gulfstream Aerospace (see Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, Note 6 - Related Parties).
 

Gross loss was $509,543 and $154,727, respectively for the three months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007.
 

Total operating expenses increase to $483,876 from $142,504, respectively for the three months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007. This 239.6% increase was mainly attributable to the Company’s cost associated with administrative payroll, rent, insurance, professional fees and payroll taxes.
 

COMPARISON OF THE NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2008 TO THE NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2007

Results of Operations
 

Total revenues decreased to $1,466,740 from $1,760,981, respectively for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007. The decrease of $294,241 (16.7%) resulted primarily from the lack of funding in which to fulfill its contractual obligations and the inability to bond work. The Company has three Indefinite Quantity Contracts with various school boards which have not ordered classrooms. According to the September 2007 McGraw-Hill Construction (not incorporated in this Form 10-Q), the school markets were at a virtue standstill in 2007. The impact of 2007 has continued into 2008 and is expected to continue into 2009. The Company’s only contract is for $7,500,000 in a private school contract that is seeking funding. The Company expects to fulfill these contracts when the owner can obtain financing.
 

Cost of sales was $2,625,134 and $1,314,469, respectively for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007. As a percent of revenue, the cost of sales related to the manufacturing division which was 179.0%. The manufacturing division recorded a loss of approximately $700,000 on the contract with Gulfstream Aerospace (see Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, Note 6 - Related Parties). Without the loss, the cost of sales would have been approximately $1,925,000 or approximately 131% of revenue. The Company’s inability to manufacture product with a profit has led to the Company seeking to outsource the manufacturing of its potential contracts and to cease operations in the manufacturing division.
 

Gross profit (loss) was $(1,158,394) and $446,512, respectively, for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007.
 

Total operating expenses increase to $965,686 from $589,471, respectively for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007. This 63.8% increase was mainly attributable to the Company costs for administrative payroll, rent, insurance, professional fees, and payroll taxes .

Liquidity and Capital Resources
 

As of September 30, 2008, the Company had a working capital surplus of $1,080. Net loss was $2,161,858 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008. The Company generated a positive cash flow from operations of $67,274 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008. The positive cash flow from operating activities for the period is primarily attributable to the increase in accounts receivable ($1,767,908), costs in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts ($359,656), prepaid expenses and other current assets ($20,317) and decrease in deferred revenue ($98,206) and billings in excess of costs on uncompleted contracts ($38,010), offset by an increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses ($3,492,725) and due to shareholder ($939,492). The due to shareholder balance was recorded in notes payable and accounts payable on the December 31, 2008 balance sheet.
 

Cash flows provided by investing activities of $76,459 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 related to the construction-in-progress of modular buildings to be leased by SSL.



 

Cash flows used in financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 was $142,653 primarily due to the repayment of notes payable ($402,653), an increase in due to shareholder ($939,492) and receipts of a subscription stock receivable ($100,000).
 

The Company had a net increase in cash of $1,080 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 compared to a decrease of $454,878 for the nine months ended September 30, 2007.
 

For the next twelve months, the Company intends to fund its operations through private debt and equity financing and revenues from operations. The current economic downturn has adversely affected the Company’s prospective business, and has severely impacted the Company’s ability to obtain financing. The Company cannot predict when the environment for obtaining financing will become more favorable. If we are not successful in generating sufficient liquidity from operations or in raising sufficient capital resources, on terms acceptable to us, this could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, liquidity and financial condition. The Company’s decision to become a public entity was directly related to the need for operating capital. The Company will be forced to consider drastic measures to include the potential bankruptcy of its various subsidiaries, and/or the redirection of business operations outside the construction industry, The Company continues to seek financing opportunities that may arise from time-to-time. With the impending foreclosure action by Region’s Bank and Avante placing its Line of Credit in default the Company’s financial stability is at best uncertain.

The effect of inflation on the Company's revenue and operating results was not significant. The Company's operations are located primarily in Florida. As the school markets have been the primary source of income for the Company, our ability to generate revenue is seasonal during their contract award times, which begin in January requiring fulfillment prior to August of the same year.

 

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
 

There have been no material changes in the Company’s market risk exposures from those reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year December 31, 2007.
 

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
 

The Company’s management, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (the “CEO”) and Interim Chief Financial Officer (the “CFO”), performed an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design, maintenance and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures of September 30, 2008. Based on that evaluation, the CEO and CFO concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective. There have been significant changes in the Company’s internal controls due to the current legal situation between Avante and the Company (see Item 1 Legal Proceedings). Management has performed its best effort in determining the actual financial position of the Company but, cannot assure complete accuracy and disclosure.The Company is not in possession of its accounting and adminstrative records.   Management has accrued for unknown expenses which should be more representative of the situation. Potentially, the accrual may be excessive and may be adjusted accordingly in future filings .

PART II.  OTHER INFORMATION
 

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
 

On October 2, 2006, NCSI was named in a lawsuit captioned New Millennium Enterprises, LLC and Phoenixsurf.com, LLC v. Michael W. Hawkins, et. al. U.S. District Court, Middle District of Georgia, 3: 06-CV-84 (CDC). The lawsuit alleges violations of the Georgia Securities Act, Georgia Fair Business Practices Act, Federal Securities laws and certain other unspecified laws in connection with the investment by Plaintiffs of $180,000 in NCSI in April 2006 and seeks rescission of this investment. Plaintiffs amended their complaint on April 11, 2007. NCSI filed an answer to the amended complaint denying all essential allegations of the complaint and asserting affirmative defenses showing why the plaintiffs are not entitled to the relief sought. In addition, NCSI filed Counterclaims against the Plaintiffs and Third Party claims against individual officers and directors of Plaintiff, alleging a malicious interference with the Company’s business and business relations, conspiracy to interfere with our business, libel and slander, and violation of rights under Title IX of the Organized Crime Control Act of 1970 as amended. The Parties are to establish a consolidated plan of discovery in 2008. The Company believes it has meritorious defenses to the claims and intends to vigorously defend this lawsuit and to pursue its counterclaims.
 
On October 29, 2007, the Company issued 250,000 common shares for $225,000 net of fees in a private placement. On December 31, 2007, the $225,000 was a subscription receivable. Subsequent to December 31, 2007, the Company has received only $100,000 of the funds purchased. The Company has filed a lawsuit against the individual to collect the balance of these outstanding funds
and is attempting to settle the claim.
 

On September 25, 2008, Regions Bank filed a suit captioned Regions Bank v. New Century Structures, Inc.; Joseph J. Sorci; Michael W. Hawkins; Avante Holding Group, Inc.; Ferguson Enterprises, Inc.; and Cyberfactor, LLC in the Circuit Court of the Eighteenth Judicial Circuit in Brevard County, Florida alleging a default under the term loan agreement. The amount claimed is approximately $427,000. The case is being held pending a mediation arbitration.



 
On October 28, 2008, the Company filed a suit captioned Accelerated Building Concepts Corp., New Century Structures, Inc., and Sustainable Structures, Inc. v. Avante Holding Group, Inc. and Michael W. Hawkins, in the Circuit Court of the Eighteenth Judicial Circuit, in Brevard County, Florida.

 
On November 10, 2008, the Registrant filed a Plaintiffs’ Verified Emergency Motion For Temporary Injunction (the “Motion”) against Avante Holding Group, Inc. (“Avante”) and Michael W. Hawkins (“Hawkins”) in Accelerated Building Concepts Corporation, et al v. Avante Holding Group, Inc. and Michael W. Hawkins, the Defendants, Brevard County, Florida (Case Number 05-2008-CA-057989).

ABCC has requested of the court to issue a Temporary Injunction against Hawkins to assert any claim of a hostile takeover or removal of Joseph J. Sorci as the Chief Executive Officer and Chairman, and entered a Writ of Replevin pursuant to the Motion concerning the documents, stock transfer ledgers, stock certificates and other related business and financial records.

The Company also has several pending lawsuits, each for less than $20,000, and one for approximately $35,000, with vendors and suppliers.
 

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
 

You should carefully consider the following discussion of various risks and uncertainties. We believe these risk factors are the most relevant to our business and could cause our results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements made by us. The following risk factors are not the only risk factors facing our Company. Additional risks that we do not consider material, or of which we are not currently aware, may also have an adverse impact on us. Our business, financial condition, and result of operations could be seriously harmed if any of these risks or uncertainties actually occurs or materializes. In that event, the market price for our common stock could decline, and you may lose all of part of your investment.
 

If we do not receive additional financing immediately to meet sales growth and cash flow needs, the Company will not be able to support ongoing operations and cash flow needs.
 

The Company currently has a working capital deficit. The current cash available will not meet the current liabilities outstanding. In addition, the Company’s current accounts payable exceed 60 days. NCSI, the primary operating entity, has experienced a lull in sales since 2006, due to the virtual stoppage of all its educational contracts in 2007 and 2008. This has created a net loss in operations and has strained the Company’s ability to move forward. In addition, the Company is dependent on purchasing materials from outside vendors to manufacture its products. Cash flow has not been sufficient to support these relationships, in addition to financing not being available, the Company is virtually insolvent and it cannot support ongoing operational expenses associated with the Company's business. There is no guarantee that we will succeed in obtaining additional financing, or if available, that it will be on terms favorable to us.
 

If the current management is not able to prevail in the shareholder action (see Item 1 – Legal Proceedings; ABCC v Avante and Hawkins), the future of the Company’s operation could be jeopardized.
 

The shareholders have attempted to replace the current management of the Company and is based on their desire to radically alter the ongoing operations of the Company and to close its current subsidiaries. The current lawsuit by the Company, as discussed previously, were filed to protect the Company and its operations. Management has been working with potential funding sources which will not move forward until this situation has been rectified. Management believes that with the proper funding, strategic alliances, and bonding power, the Company has the potential to turnaround the current financial situation. There is no guarantee that the current management of the Company will prevail in the lawsuit.

If the price of raw and/or component materials increases or their availability decreases, it may create a reduction in our capability to produce our product.

The key components to our product are concrete and steel. Steel is a commodity product therefore the Company continues to seek various suppliers, to provide sufficient source and pricing to meet our development schedule and pricing points. In the current market for concrete and steel, key ingredients to our product rise and fall in cost, which could affect our abilities to procure enough raw materials based on cash and credit availability to produce enough products to meet demand and sell finished products at a profit. With an increase in raw material pricing, which often fluctuates due to availability, natural disasters, and force majures, the Company may not maintain adequate cash to procure raw materials to meet current demand and expanded growth. As additional funding is required in the future, obtaining such financing is at the sole discretion of numerous third party financial institutions. Therefore, the Company cannot predict its ability to obtain future financing or the specific terms associated with such agreements. As such, the Company would be required to adjust production schedules based on cash availability and market pricing for its finished products which could therefore reduce production and limit its sales growth potential.
 

In the event the Company is unable to pay off existing debt holders all of our assets are collateral and would cause a closure of our operations.
 

Regions Bank holds a note in the principal amount of $500,000 (with a current pay-off amount of approximately $427,000) secured by all of our assets. The note originally existed as a revolving credit agreement but was converted into a five-year term note on July 1, 2007. The maturity date of the note is July 30, 2012. The note bears an interest rate equal to the prime rate and contains no prepayment penalty clause. The Company is in default of the payment terms and other provisions of the note, and there is no assurance that we will be able to successfully negotiate new terms favorable to us. Regions Bank has filed a lawsuit against the Company and the personal guarantees of this note alleging a default under the terms of the loan agreement (see Item 1 – Legal Proceedings). The amount claimed is approximately $400,000. The case is being held pending a mediation arbitration.


 

 

With only an outdoor manufacturing facility leased on a month-by-month basis, the Company could lose substantial revenue due to down time due to inclement weather and/or having to relocate to an alternate facility.

The Company currently builds in an open field with elongated concrete pads. While this meets requirements for building modular facilities, work must be stopped, or temporarily delayed when weather conditions are unfavorable. The Company maintains three modular units on site for administrative use, tool storage and security, and employee break rooms. The land consists of 4.3 acres and is currently on a month-by-month lease basis. In the event the company is required to vacate the premises, the Company would lose significant time and resources relocating to an alternate site. There is no guarantee the company will find adequate facilities in an appropriate time frame in order not to disrupt its current operations.
 

Our corporate office in Florida is located in an area subject to hurricanes and other tropical storms. We believe our insurance policies are adequate with the appropriate limits and deductibles to mitigate the potential loss exposure of our business. We do not have financial reserves for policy deductibles and we do have exclusions under our insurance policies that are customary for our industry, including earthquakes, flood and terrorism. If any of our facilities or a significant amount of our manufacturing equipment were to experience a catastrophic loss, it could disrupt our operations, delay orders, shipments and revenue recognition resulting in expenses to repair or replace the damaged manufacturing equipment and facility not covered by insurance.
 

We may be required to indemnify our Directors and Officers at a high cost to the Company.
 

We have authority under Section 607.0850 of the Florida Business Corporation Act and Delaware law to indemnify our directors and officers to the extent provided in that statute. Our Articles of Incorporation require the Company to indemnify each of our directors and officers against liabilities imposed upon them (including reasonable amounts paid in settlement) and expenses incurred by them in connection with any claim made against them or any action, suit or proceeding to which they may be a party by reason of their being or having been a director or officer of the company. Our officer's and director's liability insurance coverage was terminated due to non-payment. We have entered into indemnification agreements with each of our officers and directors containing provisions that may require us, among other things, to indemnify our officers and directors against certain liabilities that may arise by reason of their status or service as officers or directors (other than liabilities arising from willful misconduct of a culpable nature) and to advance their expenses incurred as a result of any proceeding against them as to which they could be indemnified. Management believes that such indemnification provisions and agreements are necessary to attract and retain qualified persons as directors and executive officers.

Future changes in financial accounting standards and the applicable regulations by the various governmental regulatory agencies may cause lower than expected operating results and affect our reported results of operations.
 

Changes in accounting standards and their application may have a significant effect on our reported results on a going forward basis and may also affect the recording and disclosure of previously reported transactions. New standards have occurred and will continue to occur in the future. For example, in December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004), as amended, “Share Based Payment” (“SFAS No. 123R”), which requires us to expense stock options at fair value effective January 1, 2006. Under SFAS No. 123R, the recognition of compensation expense for the fair value of stock options reduces our reported net income and net income per share subsequent to implementation, however, this accounting change will not have any impact on the cash flows of our business. Under the prior rules, expensing of stock options was not required and therefore, no compensation expense for stock options was included in reported net income and net income per share.

The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and various new rules subsequently implemented by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and the NASDAQ National Market have imposed additional reporting and corporate governance practices on public companies. Since adoption of these regulations, our legal, accounting and financial compliance costs have increased and a significant portion of management’s time has been diverted to comply with these rules. We expect these additional costs and the diversion of management’s time to continue and to the extent additional rules and regulations are adopted, the diversion of resources may potentially increase over time, with respect to these legal initiatives.
 

In addition, if we do not adequately comply with or implement the requirements of Section 404 in a timely manner, we may not be able to accurately report our financial results or prevent fraud, which may result in sanctions or investigation by regulatory authorities, such as the SEC. Any such action could harm our business, financial results or investors’ confidence in our company, and could cause our stock price to fall.
 

The nature of our businesses exposes us to the risk of litigation and liability under environmental, health and safety and products liability laws that could have a negative impact on the financial performance of the Company.



 

Certain aspects of our businesses involve risks of liability. In general, litigation in our industry, including class actions that seek substantial damages, arises with increasing frequency. Claims may be asserted under environmental, labor, health and safety or product liability laws. Litigation is invariably expensive, regardless of the merit of the plaintiffs’ claims. We may be named as a defendant in the future, and there can be no assurance that regardless of the merit of such claims, we will not be required to make substantial settlement payments in the future.
 

Conducting our routine businesses exposes us to risk of litigation from employees, vendors and other third parties.
 

We are subject to claims arising from disputes with employees, vendors and other third parties in the normal course of business; these risks may be difficult to assess or quantify and their existence and magnitude may remain unknown for substantial periods of time. If the plaintiffs in any suits against us were to successfully prosecute their claims, or if we were to settle such suits by making significant payments to the plaintiffs, our operating results and financial condition would be harmed.
 

Our credit availability, accounts receivable, and available cash is minimal therefore, without these, they could have a material adverse effect on our operating results.
 

We generally sell to customers on a 30-day payment term; however, our average collection time is 60 days. We individually perform credit evaluation procedures on our customers on each transaction and will require security deposits or other forms of security from our customers when a significant credit risk is identified. Our accounts payable exceed sixty days on average therefore many of our vendors have placed the Company on a cash only basis.
 

Failure by third parties to supply our raw materials to our specifications or on a timely basis may harm our reputation and financial condition.
 

We are dependent on third parties to provide steel, concrete, and other building materials/components even though we are able to purchase products from a variety of third-party suppliers. In the future, we may be limited as to the number of third-party suppliers for some of our products. Currently, we do not have any long-term purchase contracts with any third-party supplier, and are mostly a cash only customer with our vendors. In the future, we may not be able to negotiate arrangements with these third parties on acceptable terms, if at all. If we cannot negotiate arrangements with these third parties to produce our products or the third parties fail to produce our products to our specifications or in a timely manner, our reputation and financial condition could be harmed.
 

A significant reduction of construction due to economic downturns, population growth variations and/or other definable effects on the construction industry could cause the demand for our product to decline, which has resulted in a reduction in our revenues and profitability, and will continue for the foreseeable future.
 

Sales of modular portable classrooms for the Florida public school districts for use as portable classrooms, restroom buildings, and administrative offices for kindergarten through grade twelve declined in 2007. Funding for public school facilities is derived from a variety of sources including the passage of both statewide and local facility bond measures, developer fees and various taxes levied to support school operating budgets. Many of these funding sources are subject to financial and political considerations, which vary from district to district, and are not necessarily tied to demand. Historically, we have benefited from the passage of facility bond measures and believe these are essential to our business. Forecast reports believe 2008 and 2009 to be less than substantial years in the school facility market. There is no guarantee that this business sector will return to its historical 2005 levels during this period.

 

To the extent public school districts’ funding is reduced for the rental and purchase of modular facilities, our business could be harmed and our results of operations negatively impacted. We believe that interruptions or delays in the passage of facility bond measures, changes in legislative or educational policies at either the state or local level, including the contraction or elimination of class size reduction programs, a lack or insufficient amount of fiscal funding, a significant reduction of funding to public schools, or changes negatively impacting enrollment, may reduce the rental and sale demand for our educational products thereby resulting in lower revenues and related profitability.
 

Public policies that create demand for our products and services may change, stall in Congress or State Legislation creating a downturn in sales.
 

Florida has passed legislation to limit the number of students that may be grouped in a single classroom for certain grade levels. School districts with class sizes in excess of these limits have been and continue to be a significant source of demand for modular classrooms. The educational priorities and policies were stalled in 2007, therefore demand for our products and services declined. While legislation still dictates the need for additional modular classrooms, we may not experience the growth levels witnessed in 2005 and 2006, therefore, we may not grow as quickly as or reach the levels that we anticipate.
 

Similar to conventionally constructed buildings, the modular building industry, including the manufacturers and lessors of portable classrooms, are subject to evolving regulations by multiple governmental agencies at the federal, state and local level. This oversight includes but is not limited to governing code bodies, environmental, health, safety and transportation. Failure by our customers to comply with these laws or regulations could impact our business. Compliance with building codes and regulations have always entailed a certain amount of risk as municipalities do not necessarily interpret these building codes and regulations in a consistent manner, particularly where applicable regulations may be unclear and subject to interpretation. Many aspects of the construction and modular industry have developed “best practices” which are constantly evolving.



 

Our warranty costs may increase reducing our gross profit margin.
 

Sales of modular buildings constructed of concrete and/or structural insulated panels are typically covered by warranties. The Company provides a one year warranty on our facilities. Historically, our warranty costs have not been significant, and we monitor the quality of our products closely. If a defect were to arise in the manufacturing of our modular buildings at our facility, we may experience increased warranty claims. Such claims could disrupt our sales operations, damage our reputation and require costly repairs or other remedies, negatively impacting revenues and operating income.

 Economics and cyclical downturns in the construction industry has resulted in periods of low demand for our services resulting in the reduction of our operating results and cash flows, and without any foreseeable reversal in sight, we may not be able to overcome this economic crisis.
 

The severity and length of any downturn on the construction industry has also affected overall access to capital, which could adversely affect our customers. During periods of reduced and declining demand for construction material, we are exposed to additional risk from reduced revenue and may need to rapidly align our cost structure with prevailing market conditions while at the same time motivating and retaining key employees. No assurance can be given regarding the length or extent of the recovery, and no assurance can be given that our rates, operating results and cash flows will not be adversely impacted by the reversal of any current trends or any future downturns or slowdowns in the rate of capital investment in this industry.
