VERICHIP CORPORATION
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
1. Business and Basis of Presentation
VeriChip Corporation (the Company, us, we, or our) is a Delaware corporation formed in
November 2001. The Company commenced operations in January 2002. On February 14, 2007, the Company
completed an initial public offering of its common stock, selling 3,100,000 shares of its common
stock at a price of $6.50 per share.
On July 18, 2008, the Company completed the sale of all of the outstanding capital stock of
Xmark Corporation, its wholly-owned Canadian subsidiary (Xmark), to Stanley Canada Corporation
(Stanley) for $47.9 million in cash, which consisted of the $45 million purchase price plus a
balance sheet adjustment of $2.9 million. Under the terms of the stock purchase agreement,
$4.5 million of the proceeds were held in escrow for a period of 12 months to provide for
indemnification obligations under the stock purchase agreement, if any. As a result, the Company
recorded a gain on the sale of Xmark of $6.2 million, with $4.5 million of that gain deferred until
the escrow was settled. The Xmark business included all of the operations of our previously
reported healthcare security and industrial segments. The financial position, results of operations
and cash flows of Xmark for 2008 have been reclassified as a discontinued operation.
During the quarter ended June 30, 2009 the Company finalized the process related to the
indemnification obligations supported by the $4.5 million escrow. On July 20, 2009 the Company
received $4.4 million of the previously escrowed funds, which was net of a $115 thousand payment
to Stanley as the final settlement of the final balance sheet adjustment. As a result, the Company
recognized a $4.4 million previously deferred gain in its statement of operations for the three and
six months ended June 30, 2009.
Following the completion of the sale of Xmark to Stanley, the Company retired all of its
outstanding debt for a combined payment of $13.5 million and settled all contractual payments to
officers and management of the Company and Xmark for $9.1 million. In addition, the Company issued
a special dividend of $15.8 million on August 28, 2008.
The Company has historically developed, marketed, and sold radio frequency identification
(frequently referred to as RFID) systems used for the identification and protection of people in
the healthcare market. The Companys VeriMed Health Link system uses the human-implantable passive
RFID microchip that is used in patient identification applications, securely linking a patient to
their personal health record as maintained in the Companys proprietary database. Each implantable
Health Link microchip contains a unique verification number that is read when it is scanned by the
Companys scanner. In October 2004, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, or FDA, cleared the
Companys VeriMed Health Link system for use in medical applications in the United States.
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company and its
subsidiaries as of June 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008 (the December 31, 2008, financial
information included in this report has been extracted from the Companys audited financial
statements included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended, for the year ended December 31,
2008), and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008 have been prepared in
accordance with United States (U.S.) generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) for
interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of
Regulation S-X under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Accordingly, they do not include all of
the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of
the Companys management, all adjustments (including normal recurring adjustments) considered
necessary to present fairly the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been
made. Certain items in the June 30, 2008 periods have been reclassified for comparative purposes.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure
of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported
amounts of sales and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those
estimates. Included in these estimates are assumptions about
allowances for excess inventory, bad debt reserves, lives of long lived assets, lives of
intangible assets, assumptions used in Black-Scholes valuation models, estimates of the fair value
of acquired assets and assumed liabilities, the determination of whether any impairment is to be
recognized on goodwill or intangibles, among others.

VERICHIP CORPORATION
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
The unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three and six months
ended June 30, 2009 and 2008 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for
the entire year. These statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial
statements and related notes thereto included in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
year ended December 31, 2008.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The carrying values of financial instruments including cash and accounts payable approximate
fair value due to the relatively short term nature of these instruments.
In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 157, Fair Value Measurements. SFAS 157 defines fair
value and establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The
statement also expands the disclosures related to the fair value measurements used to value assets
and liabilities. SFAS 157 was effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and
interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company adopted SFAS 157 on January 1, 2008. SFAS
157 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a
liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. This
standard is now the single source in U.S. GAAP for the definition of fair value, except for the
fair value of leased property as defined in SFAS 13. SFAS 157 establishes a fair value hierarchy
that distinguishes between (1) market participant assumptions developed based on market data
obtained from independent sources (observable inputs), (2) assumptions that are other than quoted
prices which are either directly or indirectly observable for the asset or liability through
correlation with market data and (3) an entitys own assumptions about market participant
assumptions developed based on the best information available in the circumstances (unobservable
inputs). The fair value hierarchy consists of three broad levels, which gives the highest priority
to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the
lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3).
The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under SFAS 157 are described below:
|
|
|
Level 1Unadjusted quoted prices in
active markets that are accessible
at the measurement date for
identical, unrestricted assets or
liabilities.
|
|
|
|
|
Level 2Inputs other than quoted
prices included within Level 1 that
are observable for the asset or
liability, either directly or
indirectly, including quoted prices
for similar assets or liabilities in
active markets; quoted prices for
identical or similar assets or
liabilities in markets that are not
active; inputs other than quoted
prices that are observable for the
asset or liability (e.g., interest
rates); and inputs that are derived
principally from or corroborated by
observable market data by
correlation or other means.
|
|
|
|
|
Level 3Inputs that are both
significant to the fair value
measurement and unobservable.
|
The Companys investment in the common stock purchase warrant to purchase 333 thousand common
shares of Steel Vault Corporation (Steel Vault), as further discussed in Note 4, are classified
as Level 2 under SFAS 157 hierarchy. The warrant investment in the Company is valued monthly using
a black-scholes model with observable market inputs.
Investments are classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy because they trade
infrequently (or not at all) and therefore have little or no readily available pricing.
Unobservable inputs are used to measure fair
value to the extent that observable inputs are not available. The note receivable is
classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.
6
VERICHIP CORPORATION
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
Valuations for Level 3 investments are adjusted when changes to inputs and assumptions are
corroborated by evidence such as transactions in similar instruments, convertible offerings in the
equity or debt, and changes in financial ratios or cash flows of the borrower and the guarantors
financial ability to repay the obligation in the event of a default. The note receivable is
guaranteed by the Companys acting chief financial officer who is the chief executive officer of
Steel Vault, the borrower.
For positions that are not traded in active markets or are subject to transfer restrictions,
valuations are adjusted to reflect illiquidity and/or non-transferability and such adjustments are
generally based on available market information. In the absence of such evidence, managements best
estimate is used.
The values assigned to investments and any unrealized gains or losses reported are based on
available information and do not necessarily represent amounts that might be realized if a ready
market existed and such difference could be material. Furthermore the ultimate realization of such
amounts depends on future events and circumstances and therefore valuation estimates may differ
from the value realized upon disposition of individual positions.
The following table sets forth information about the level within the fair value hierarchy at
which the Companys investments are measured at June 30, 2009 (expressed in thousands):

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In April 2009, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1,
Interim
Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments
(FSP FAS 107-1) and (APB 28-1). FSP FAS
107-1 amends FASB Statement No. 107,
Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments"
, to
require disclosures about fair value of financial instruments in interim as well as in annual
financial statements and amends APB Opinion No. 28
Interim Financial Reporting,
to require those
disclosures in interim financial statements. FSP FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1 were adopted by the Company
on April 1, 2009. These staff positions did not have a material impact on our Condensed
Consolidated Financial Statements.
7
VERICHIP CORPORATION
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
In May 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 165 Subsequent Events (SFAS 165). SFAS 165
establishes general standards of accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the
balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. SFAS
165 sets forth (1) the period after the balance sheet date during which management of a reporting
entity should evaluate events or transactions that may occur for potential recognition or
disclosure in the financial statements, (2) the circumstances under which an entity should
recognize events or transactions occurring after the balance sheet date in its financial statements
and (3) the disclosures that an entity should make about events or transactions that occurred after
the balance sheet date. SFAS 165 was effective for the Companys interim financial periods ending
June 30, 2009. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on our Condensed
Consolidated Financial Statements.
In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 168 The FASB Accounting Standards Codification and the
Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principlesa replacement of FASB Statement No. 162. The
FASB Accounting Standards Codification (Codification) will be the single source of authoritative
nongovernmental U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Rules and interpretive releases of
the SEC under authority of federal securities laws are also sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC
registrants. SFAS 168 is effective for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009.
All existing accounting standards are superseded as described in SFAS 168. All other accounting
literature not included in the Codification is nonauthoritative. The adoption of this standard is
not expected to have a material impact on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Stock-Based Compensation
Effective January 1, 2006, the Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB)
SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004),
Share Based Payment,
or FAS 123R using the modified prospective
transition method. Under this method, stock-based compensation expense is recognized using the
fair-value based method for all awards granted on or after the date of adoption. Compensation
expense for new awards granted after January 1, 2006 is recognized over the requisite service
period based on the grant-date fair value of those options. Prior to adoption, the Company used the
intrinsic value method under Accounting Principles Board 25, and related interpretations and
provided the disclosure-only provisions of FAS 123. Under the intrinsic value method, no
stock-based compensation had been recognized in our consolidated statement of operations for
options granted to the Companys employees and directors because the exercise price of such stock
options equaled or exceeded the fair market value of the underlying stock on the dates of grant.
The Company recorded compensation expense, related to stock options, of approximately
$0.3 million and $0.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009, respectively, and
approximately $0.9 million and $1.8 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008,
respectively.
In December 2008, the Company issued approximately 518 thousand shares of its restricted
common stock to Mr. Caragol, its acting chief financial officer in lieu of salary. The shares vest
according to the following schedule: (i) 20% vested on the grant date, and (ii) 80% shall vest on
January 1, 2010. In the event of a change in control and if Mr. Caragol is terminated without
cause, the shares will immediately vest. The shares are subject to forfeiture in the event
Mr. Caragol is terminated for cause. Compensation expense of approximately $22 thousand and $168
thousand was recorded in the three and six months ended June 30, 2009, respectively, for these
shares.
In December 2008, the Company issued approximately 602 thousand shares of its restricted
common stock to Mr. Silverman, its executive chairman in lieu of salary. If Mr. Silverman remains
involved in the day-to-day management of the Company, the shares will vest upon the earlier to
occur of: (i) January 1, 2010, or (ii) a change in control of the Company. The shares are subject
to forfeiture in the event that Mr. Silverman fails to remain involved in the day-to-day management
of the Company. Compensation expense of approximately $55 thousand and $110 thousand was recorded
in the three and six months ended June 30, 2009, respectively, for these shares.
In December 2008, the Company issued 400 thousand shares of its restricted common stock to
members of the board of directors, which vest on January 1, 2010. The Company determined the value
of the stock to be approximately $100 thousand based on the value of its common stock on the dates
of grant. The value of the outstanding restricted stock is being amortized as compensation expense
over the vesting period. Compensation expense of approximately $37 thousand and $73 thousand was
recorded in the three and six months ended June 30, 2009, respectively, for these shares.
8
VERICHIP CORPORATION
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
In January and December 2008, the Company issued 25 thousand and 170 thousand options,
respectively, to a director, employees and consultants, which vest on January 18, 2011 and
December 31, 2011, respectively. The Company determined the value of the option to be approximately
$43 thousand based on the value of its common stock on the dates of grant. The value of the
outstanding options is being amortized as compensation expense over the vesting period.
Compensation expense of approximately $2 thousand and $4 thousand was recorded in the three and six
months ended June 30, 2009, respectively, for these options.
Stock-based compensation expense is reflected in the condensed consolidated statement of
operations in selling, general and administrative expense.
The Companys computation of expected life was determined based on the simplified method. The
interest rate was based on the U.S. Treasury Yield curve in effect at the time of grant. The
Companys computation of expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of the Companys
comparable companies average historical volatility.
2. Principles of Consolidation
The financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned
subsidiaries. All significant inter-company transactions and balances had been eliminated in
consolidation.

4. Note Receivable
On June 4, 2009, the Company invested $500 thousand in Steel Vault pursuant to a secured
convertible promissory note (the Note). The two year Note is collectible on demand on or after
June 4, 2010, accrues at a rate of twelve percent and is secured by substantially all of Steel
Vaults assets, including the assets of National Credit Report.com, LLC, a wholly-owned
subsidiary of Steel Vault. The security interest held by the Company on the assets is senior to
any other security interest on the assets pursuant to a Subordination and
Intercreditor Agreement between the Company and Blue Moon Energy Partners LLC, a Florida
limited liability company (Blue Moon). The Note can be prepaid at any time without penalty
and matures on June 4, 2011. The unpaid principal and accrued and unpaid interest under the
Note can be converted at any time into common stock of Steel Vault at a price of $0.30 per
share.
The investment included a common stock purchase warrant given to VeriChip to purchase 333
thousand common shares of the Company at a price of $0.30 per share. The fair market value at
issuance was $34. Interest receivable as of June 30, 2009 was $2.
The Company valued each component of the investment as of the investment period and allocated
the $500 thousand investment proportionately to the Note and common stock purchase warrant based on
their respective fair values on June 4, 2009.
The financing transaction also included a guaranty of collection given by William J. Caragol
for the benefit of the Company. See Note 9 Related Party Transactions.

The Black-Scholes model, which the Company used to determine compensation expense,
required the Company to make several key judgments including:
|
|
|
the value of the Companys common stock;
|
|
|
|
|
the expected life of issued stock options;
|
|
|
|
|
the expected volatility of the Companys stock price;
|
|
|
|
|
the expected dividend yield to be realized over the life of the stock option; and
|
|
|
|
|
the risk-free interest rate over the expected life of the stock options.
|
The Company prepared these estimates based upon its historical experience, the stock price
volatility of comparable publicly-traded companies and its best estimation of future conditions.

These options represent the number outstanding at the end of the respective period. At the point that the exercise price is less than the average market
price, these options have the potential to be dilutive and application of the treasury method would reduce this amount.

7. Income Taxes
The Company had an effective tax rate of nil for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009
and 2008. However, it has not recorded a tax benefit for the resulting U.S. net operating loss
carryforwards, as the Company has determined that a valuation allowance against its net U.S.
deferred tax assets was appropriate based primarily on its historical operating results.
During
the three and six months ended June 30, 2009, the Company
recognized a gain of $4.4 million from the sale of Xmark in
2008. This gain resulted in taxable income in 2008, which resulted in
the Company utilizing a portion of its net operating loss
carryforward through the release of the valuation allowance against
those tax attributes.
FASB Interpretation No. 48,
Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes,
(FIN 48) was issued
to clarify the requirements of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109,
Accounting for
Income Taxes
, relating to the recognition of income tax benefits.
FIN 48 provides a two-step approach to recognizing and measuring tax benefits when the
benefits realization is uncertain. The first step is to determine whether the benefit is to be
recognized, and the second step is to determine the amount to be recognized:
|
|
|
income tax benefits should be recognized when, based on
the technical merits of a tax position, the entity
believes that if a dispute arose with the taxing authority
and were taken to a court of last resort, it is more
likely than not (i.e., a probability of greater than
50 percent) that the tax position would be sustained as
filed; and
|
|
|
|
|
if a position is determined to be more likely than not of
being sustained, the reporting enterprise should recognize
the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than
50 percent likely of being realized upon ultimate
settlement with the taxing authority.
|
The implementation of FIN 48 did not result in any adjustment to the Companys beginning tax
positions. The Company continues to fully recognize its tax benefits, which are offset by a
valuation allowance to the extent that it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will
not be realized.
The Company recognizes any interest accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits or exposures
in interest expense and penalties in operating expenses. During the three and six months ended June
30, 2009 and 2008, there was no such interest or penalty.

8. Legal proceedings
The Company is engaged in certain legal actions and management believes that the ultimate
outcome of these actions will not have a material adverse effect on the Companys operating
results, liquidity or financial position.
The Company is a party to various legal actions, as either plaintiff or defendant, including
the matters identified above, arising in the ordinary course of business, none of which is expected
to have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition or results of operations.
However, litigation is inherently unpredictable, and the costs and other effects of pending or
future litigation, governmental investigations, legal and administrative cases and proceedings,
whether civil or criminal, settlements, judgments and investigations, claims or charges in any such
matters, and developments or assertions by or against the Company relating to it or to its
intellectual property rights and intellectual property licenses could have a material adverse
effect on the Companys business, financial condition and operating results.
9. Related Party Transactions
Agreements with Steel Vault
The Company shares a common ownership, or control group, with Steel Vault Corporation (Steel
Vault), a public company formerly known as IFTH Acquisition Corp. R & R Consulting Partners, LLC,
a holding company owned and controlled by Scott R. Silverman, and Mr. Silverman currently own on a
combined basis, approximately 50% of the Companys outstanding common stock. As of July 31, 2009,
Mr. Silverman owned, directly or indirectly, approximately 59% of Steel Vaults outstanding common
stock, including 2,570,000 shares that are directly owned by Blue Moon. Mr. Silverman, the
Companys executive chairman of the board, is a manager and controls a member of Blue Moon (i.e., R
& R Consulting Partners, LLC). William J. Caragol, the Companys acting chief financial officer and
acting treasurer, is also a manager and member of Blue Moon and is the Chief Executive Officer of
Steel Vault.
On October 8, 2008, Steel Vault entered into a sublease with Digital Angel for its corporate
headquarters located in Delray Beach, Florida, consisting approximately 7,911 feet of office space,
which space the Company shares with Steel Vault. The rent for the entire twenty-one-month term of
the sublease is $158,000, which Steel Vault paid in one lump sum upon execution of the sublease.
The Company reimbursed Steel Vault for one-half of the sublease payment, representing the Companys
share of the total cost of the sublease. In addition, in order to account for certain shared
services and resources, the Company and Steel Vault operate under a shared services agreement, in
connection with which Steel Vault currently pays the Company $6,500 a month. During the six and
three months ended June 30, 2009, the Company recorded $45,000 and $21,000, respectively, for
shared services fees from Steel Vault. The Company did not record any payments for shared services
fees from Steel Vault for the six and three months ended June 30, 2008.
As discussed in Note 4 above, on June 4, 2009, the Company closed a debt financing transaction
with Steel Vault for $500 thousand pursuant to a secured convertible promissory note (the Note).
The two year Note is collectible on demand on or after June 4, 2010, accrues at a rate of twelve
percent and is secured by substantially all of Steel Vaults assets, including the assets of
National Credit Report.com, LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Steel Vault. The Note can be prepaid
at any time without penalty and matures on June 4, 2011. The unpaid principal and accrued and
unpaid interest under the Note can be converted at any time into common stock of Steel Vault at a
price of $0.30 per share.
14
VERICHIP CORPORATION
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
The financing transaction included a common stock purchase warrant sold to VeriChip to
purchase 333 thousand common shares of Steel Vault at a price of $0.30 per share. The fair market
value of the warrants at issuance was $34 thousand. Interest accrued as of June 30, 2009 was $2.
The financing transaction also included a guaranty of collection given by William J. Caragol,
the Companys acting chief financial officer, for the benefit of the Company, for which Mr. Caragol
received a common stock purchase warrant from Steel Vault to purchase 500 thousand common shares of
Steel Vault at a price of $0.30 per share. The fair market value at issuance was $45 thousand.
10. Events Occurring After Reporting Date
The Company has evaluated events and transactions that occurred between June 30, 2009 and
August 13, 2009, which is the date the financial statements were issued for possible disclosure and
recognition in the financial statements. The Company has determined that there were no such events
or transactions that warrant disclosure and recognition in the financial statements.

Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements, within the meaning of
Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934, as amended, that reflect our current estimates, expectations and projections about our
future results, performance, prospects and opportunities. Forward-looking statements include,
without limitation, statements about our market opportunities, our business and growth strategies,
our projected revenue and expense levels, possible future consolidated results of operations, the
adequacy of our available cash resources, our financing plans, our competitive position and the
effects of competition and the projected growth of the industries in which we operate. This
Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q also contains forward-looking statements attributed to third parties
relating to their estimates regarding the size of the future market for products and systems such
as our products and systems, and the assumptions underlying such estimates. Forward-looking
statements include all statements that are not historical facts and can be identified by
forward-looking statements such as may, might, should, could, will, intends,
estimates, predicts, projects, potential, continue, believes, anticipates, plans,
expects and similar expressions. Forward-looking statements are only predictions based on our
current expectations and projections, or those of third parties, about future events and involve
risks and uncertainties.
Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements
contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are based upon reasonable assumptions, no assurance
can be given that such expectations will be attained or that any deviations will not be material.
In light of these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, the forward-looking statements, events and
circumstances discussed in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q may not occur and actual results
could differ materially and adversely from those anticipated or implied in the forward-looking
statements. Important factors that could cause our actual results, level of performance or
achievements to differ materially from those expressed or forecasted in, or implied by, the
forward-looking statements we make in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are discussed under Item
1A. Risk Factors and elsewhere in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31,
2008, as supplemented by Item 1A. Risk Factors of our Quarterly Reports for the periods ended
March 31, 2009 and June 30, 2009, and include:
|
|
|
our ability to continue listing our common stock on the Nasdaq Stock Market (Nasdaq);
|
|
|
|
|
our ability to successfully consider, review, and if appropriate, implement other strategic opportunities;
|
|
|
|
|
our expectation that we will incur losses, on a consolidated basis, for the foreseeable future;
|
|
|
|
|
our ability to fund our operations;
|
|
|
|
|
we may become subject to costly product liability claims and claims that our products infringe the
intellectual property rights of others;
|
|
|
|
|
our ability to comply with current and future regulations relating to our businesses;
|
|
|
|
|
uncertainty as to whether a market for our VeriMed Heath Link system will develop and whether we will be
able to generate more than a nominal level of revenue from this business;
|
|
|
|
|
the potential for patent infringement claims to be brought against us asserting that we hold no rights
for the use of the implantable microchip technology and that we are violating another partys
intellectual property rights. If such a claim is successful, we could be enjoined from engaging in
activities to market the systems that utilize the implantable microchip and be required to pay
substantial damages;
|
|
|
|
|
market acceptance of our VeriMed Health Link system, which will depend in large part on the future
availability of insurance reimbursement for the VeriMed Health Link system microchip implant procedure
from government and private insurers, and the timing of such reimbursement, if it, in fact, occurs;
|
|
|
|
|
our ability to provide uninterrupted, secure access to the VeriMed database; and
|
|
|
|
|
our ability to establish and maintain proper and effective internal accounting and financial controls.
|
16
You should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements. In addition, past
financial or operating performance is not necessarily a reliable indicator of future performance,
and you should not use our historical performance to anticipate future results or future period
trends. Except as otherwise required by federal securities laws, we disclaim any obligation or
undertaking to disseminate any updates or revisions to any forward-looking statement contained in
this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to reflect any change in our expectations or any change in
events, conditions or circumstances on which any such statement is based. All forward-looking
statements attributable to us, or persons acting on our behalf, are expressly qualified in their
entirety by the cautionary statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and under the
section entitled Risk Factors in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31,
2008, as supplemented by Item 1A. Risk Factors of our Quarterly Reports for the periods ended
March 31, 2009 and June 30, 2009. These are factors that could cause our actual results to differ
materially from expected results. Other factors besides those listed could also adversely affect
us.

notes included in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q as well as our Annual Report on Form
10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008.
The Company historically developed, marketed, and sold radio frequency identification
(frequently referred to as RFID) systems used for the identification and protection of people in
the healthcare market. The Companys VeriMed Health Link system uses the human-implantable passive
RFID microchip that is used in patient identification applications, securely linking a patient to
their personal health record as maintained in the Companys proprietary database. Each implantable
Health Link microchip contains a unique verification number that is read when it is scanned by the
Companys scanner. In October 2004, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, or FDA, cleared our
VeriMed Health Link system for use in medical applications in the United States.
On July 18, 2008, the Company completed the sale of all of the outstanding capital stock of
Xmark to Stanley for $47.9 million in cash, which consisted of the $45 million purchase price plus
a balance sheet adjustment of $2.9 million. The Xmark business included all of the operations of
our previously reported healthcare security and industrial segments. The financial position,
results of operations and cash flows of Xmark for 2008 have been reclassified as a discontinued
operation.
Recent Developments
On May 6, 2009, the Company and its development partner Receptors LLC, announced plans to
develop surveillance and point-of-care sensor systems that will efficiently detect and identify the
presence of a particular biological threat such as influenza virus, Methicillin-resistant
Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) or other illnesses.
On May 12, 2009, the Company completed the development of a new, smaller human-implantable
RFID microchip measuring approximately 8 millimeters by 1 millimeter.
On May 27, 2009, that the Nasdaq Hearings Panel granted the Companys request to remain listed
on The Nasdaq Stock Market and the Companys request to transfer to The Nasdaq Capital Market,
effective May 29, 2009. On July 24, 2009, the Company received a letter from the Nasdaq advising
that the Company is in compliance with all applicable continued listing standards. For more
information, see Item 1A. Risk Factors.
On June 4, 2009, the Company closed a debt financing transaction with Steel Vault for $500
thousand pursuant to a secured convertible promissory note. See Note 4 Note Receivable, for more
information.
The Company continues to focus on both its healthcare business including its VeriMed Health
Link business, and the possible development of the glucose sensing microchip, and strategic
opportunities in the healthcare, identification and clean and alternative energy sectors.
Results of Operations
Through June 30, 2009, the Company has recorded nominal revenue from sales of its VeriMed
Health Link system.
During the six months ended June 30, 2009, the Company focused its resources on the process of
evaluating the timing and nature of its future investments and expenditures related to its VeriMed
Health Link, VeriTrace and VeriGreen businesses. During this time the Company has undertaken a cost
reduction program to maximize the amount of capital that it will have available to pursue business
opportunities in the healthcare and energy sectors.

Selling, general and administrative expense decreased $2.6 million to $0.9 million for the
three months ended June 30, 2009 as compared to $3.5 million for the three months ended June 30,
2008. The decrease was a result of staff reductions and reduction in other overhead costs most
significantly in the areas of sales and marketing as the Company continues to evaluate strategic
growth opportunities.

respectively. The interest expense in 2008 was a result of loan agreements in 2008 which were
retired upon the sale of Xmark.
Gain on Sale
During the three months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively, there was a gain on sale
of $4.4 million and nil. The gain in 2009 was a result of the recognition of previously deferred
gain from the sale of Xmark.

incurred $0.3 million related to legal settlements and $0.2 million related to transactional costs
related to the evaluation of several strategic opportunities.
During the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, the Company incurred stock-based
compensation expense of $0.4 million and $1.8 million, respectively.
19
Interest Expense
Interest expense was nil and $0.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008,
respectively. The interest expense in 2008 was a result of loan agreements in 2008 which were
retired upon the sale of Xmark.
Gain on Sale
During the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively, there was a gain on sale of
$4.4 million and nil. The gain in 2009 was a result of the recognition of previously deferred gain
from the sale of Xmark.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of June 30, 2009, cash totaled $1.2 million compared to unrestricted cash of approximately
$3.2 million at December 31, 2008.
Cash Flows Used in Operating Activities
Net cash used in operating activities totaled $1.6 million and $3.8 million during the six
months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively. For each of the periods presented, cash was used
primarily to fund operating losses, and payments of accounts payable and accrued expenses, as well
as cash used to fund discontinued operations in 2008.
Cash Flows from Investing Activities
Investing activities used cash of $504 thousand and $70 thousand during the six months ended
June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively. In the six months ended June 2009, cash was primarily used
to purchase a $0.5 million secured convertible promissory note from Steel Vault. In the six months
ended June 30 2008, cash was used to purchase equipment, partially offset by cash inflows related
to discontinued operations investing activity.
Cash Flows from Financing Activities
Financing activities used cash of nil and provided cash of $0.4 million during the six months
ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively. In the six months ended June 30, 2008, cash of $6.5
million was provided from net borrowings, primarily from an $8.0 million financing, offset by
$1.5 million used to pay debt for its discontinued operations. Cash of $5.6 million, net of
borrowings of $1.3 million, was paid to Digital Angel in the six months ended June 30, 2008 to
repay long term debt.
Financial Condition
As of June 30, 2009, the Company had working capital of approximately $4.6 million and an
accumulated deficit of approximately $39.9 million compared to a working capital of approximately
$2.4 million and an accumulated deficit of approximately $42.1 million as of December 31, 2008. The
increase in working capital was primarily due to the release of $4.4 million from the escrow
agreement between the Company and Stanley, stemming from the Companys sale of Xmark, offset by
operating losses, described above.
The Company believes that with the cash we have on hand and the restricted cash, it will have
sufficient funds available to cover our cash requirements through the next twelve months.

Impact of Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In December 2007, FASB issued SFAS No. 160, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial
Statements an amendment of ARB No. 51 (SFAS 160). This statement amends ARB 51 to establish
accounting and reporting standards for the noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary and for the
deconsolidation of a subsidiary. It clarifies that a noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary is an
ownership interest in the consolidated entity that should be reported as equity in the consolidated
financial statements. In addition, SFAS 160 changes the way the consolidated income statement is
presented by requiring consolidated net income to be reported at amounts that include the amounts
attributable to both the parent and the noncontrolling interest. This statement also establishes a
single method of accounting for changes in a parents ownership interest in a subsidiary that do
not result in
deconsolidation and requires that a parent recognize a gain or loss in net income when a
subsidiary is deconsolidated. This statement is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods
within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2008 and earlier adoption is
prohibited. SFAS 160 shall be applied prospectively as of the beginning of the fiscal year in which
this statement is initially applied, except for the presentation and disclosure requirement which
shall be applied retrospectively for all periods presented. The adoption of SFAS 160 had no impact
on the Companys condensed financial position, results of operations, cash flows or financial
statement disclosures.
In December 2007, FASB issued SFAS No. 141R, Business Combinations (SFAS 141R). SFAS 141R
replaces SFAS Statement No. 141 Business Combinations but retains the fundamental requirements in
FASB 141. This statement defines the acquirer as the entity that obtains control of one or more
businesses in the business combination and establishes the acquisition date as the date that the
acquirer achieves control. SFAS 141R also requires that an acquirer recognized the assets acquired,
the liabilities assumed and any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree at the acquisition date,
measured at their fair values as of that date. In addition, this statement requires that the
acquirer in a business combination achieved in stages to recognize the identifiable assets and
liabilities, as well as the noncontrolling interest in the acquiree, at the full amounts of their
fair values. SFAS 141R is applied prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition
date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after
December 15, 2008. An entity may not apply the standard before that date. SFAS 141R will be applied
prospectively for acquisitions beginning in 2009 or thereafter. The Company expensed $0.2 million
of due diligence costs relating to a potential acquisition target during the period ended June 30,
2009.
In May 2008, FASB issued Statement 163, Accounting for Financial Guarantee Insurance
Contracts. This new standard clarifies how FAS Statement No. 60,
Accounting and Reporting by
Insurance Enterprises
, applies to financial guarantee insurance contracts issued by insurance
enterprises, including the recognition and measurement of premium revenue and claim liabilities. It
also requires expanded disclosures about financial guarantee insurance contracts. The statement is
effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. The
adoption of SFAS 163 did not have any impact on our consolidated financial position or results of
operations.
In April 2009, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1,
Interim
Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments
(FSP FAS 107-1) and (APB 28-1). FSP FAS
107-1 amends FASB Statement No. 107,
Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments"
, to
require disclosures about fair value of financial instruments in interim as well as in annual
financial statements and amends APB Opinion No. 28
Interim Financial Reporting,
to require those
disclosures in interim financial statements. FSP FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1 were adopted by the Company
on April 1, 2009. These staff positions did not have a material impact on our Condensed
Consolidated Financial Statements.
In May 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 165 Subsequent Events (SFAS 165). SFAS 165
establishes general standards of accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the
balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. SFAS
165 sets forth (1) the period after the balance sheet date during which management of a reporting
entity should evaluate events or transactions that may occur for potential recognition or
disclosure in the financial statements, (2) the circumstances under which an entity should
recognize events or transactions occurring after the balance sheet date in its financial statements
and (3) the disclosures that an entity should make about events or transactions that occurred after
the balance sheet date. SFAS 165 is effective for interim or annual financial periods ending after
June 15, 2009. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on our Condensed
Consolidated Financial Statements.
In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 168 The FASB Accounting Standards Codification and the
Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principlesa replacement of FASB Statement No. 162. The
FASB Accounting Standards Codification (Codification) will be the single source of authoritative
nongovernmental U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Rules and interpretive releases of
the SEC under authority of federal securities laws are also sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC
registrants. SFAS 168 is effective for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009.
All existing accounting standards are superseded as described in SFAS 168. All other accounting
literature not included in the Codification is nonauthoritative. The adoption of this standard is
not expected to have a material impact on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls
. We evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation
of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act) as of June 30, 2009. This evaluation (the
disclosure controls evaluation) was done under the supervision and with the participation of
management, including the person(s) performing the function of our acting chief executive officer
(CEO) and acting chief financial officer (CFO). Rules adopted by the SEC require that in this
section of our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q we present the conclusions of the CEO and CFO about
the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2009 based on the
disclosure controls evaluation.
Objective of Controls.
Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed so that information
required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act, such as this Quarterly Report
on Form 10-Q, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in
the SECs rules and forms. Our disclosure controls and procedures are also intended to ensure that
such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the CEO and CFO, as
appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. There are inherent limitations
to the effectiveness of any system of disclosure controls and procedures, including the possibility
of human error and the circumvention or overriding of the controls and procedures. Accordingly,
even effective disclosure controls and procedures can only provide reasonable assurance of
achieving their control objectives, and management necessarily is required to use its judgment in
evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible disclosure controls and procedures.
Conclusion
. Based upon the disclosure controls evaluation, our CEO and CFO have concluded
that, as of June 30, 2009, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide
reasonable assurance that the foregoing objectives are achieved.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in
connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Rule 13a-15 under the Exchange Act that
occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2009 that have materially affected, or are reasonably
likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Item 1.
|
|
Legal Proceedings.
|
The
information set forth in Note 8 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in
Part I, Item 1 is incorporated herein by reference.
We have failed to meet applicable Nasdaq Stock Market requirements. As a result, our stock could be
delisted by the Nasdaq Stock Market. If delisting occurs, it would adversely affect the market
liquidity of our common stock and harm our businesses.
On October 21, 2008, we received a letter from Nasdaq indicating that we are not in compliance
with the Nasdaqs requirements for continued listing because, for the 30 consecutive business days
prior to October 16, 2008, the bid price of our common stock closed below the minimum $1.00 per
share price requirement for continued listing under Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 5450 (the Rule) and,
our common stock had not maintained a minimum market value of publicly held shares (MVPHS) of
$5 million as required for continued inclusion by the Rule. On November 17, 2008, we received a
notice from Nasdaq indicating that our stockholders equity at September 30, 2008 was less than the
$10 million in stockholders equity required for continued listing on The Nasdaq Global Market
under Marketplace Rule 5450(b)(1)(A). In its notice, Nasdaq requested that we provide our plan to
achieve and sustain compliance with the continued listing requirements of The Nasdaq Global Market,
including the minimum stockholders equity requirement, before December 2, 2008, which we complied
with. On February 27, 2009, we filed an application to transfer the listing of our common stock
from the Nasdaq Global Market to the Nasdaq Capital Market.
On March 5, 2009, we received a notice from Nasdaq indicating that we had not evidenced
compliance with the $10 million in stockholders equity requirement for continued listing on the
Nasdaq Global Market under Marketplace Rule 5450(b)(1)(A), and that we did not meet the
requirements for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market because our stockholders equity at
December 31, 2008 of $2.4 million was below the $2.5 million requirement under Marketplace Rule
5550(b). As a result, our securities are subject to delisting. We appealed the Nasdaq staffs
determination and requested an oral hearing before a Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Panel, which
took place on April 23, 2009 and temporarily stayed the delisting of our common stock. On May 27,
2009, the Nasdaq Hearings Panel granted our request to remain listed on The Nasdaq Stock Market and
our request to transfer to The Nasdaq Capital Market, effective May 29, 2009. On July 24, 2009,
we received a letter from Nasdaq advising that we are in compliance with all applicable continued
listing standards, which is due to the release of the $4.4 million from the Stanley escrow.
Additionally, we currently meet The Nasdaq Capital Market MVPHS requirement of $1 million, but we
have not achieved compliance with the bid price requirement of $1.00 per share.
Given the current market conditions, Nasdaq suspended enforcement of the bid price requirement
for all companies listed on Nasdaq through and including July 31, 2009. Following the reinstatement
of these rules, and in accordance with Marketplace Rule 5810(c)(3), we have 180 calendar days from
Monday, August 3, 2009, or until January 29, 2010, to regain compliance with the bid price
requirement.
If, at anytime before January 29, 2010, including during the suspension period, the bid price
of our common stock closes at $1.00 per share or more for a minimum of ten (10) consecutive
business days, the Nasdaq staff will provide written notification that we have achieved compliance
with the Rule. However, if we do not regain compliance with the Rule by January 29, 2010, the
Nasdaq staff will provide written notification that our securities will be delisted. At that time,
we may appeal the Nasdaq staffs determination to delist our securities to a Listing Qualifications
Panel.
If our common stock is delisted from the Nasdaq Stock Market, trading of our common stock most
likely will be conducted in the over-the-counter market on an electronic bulletin board established
for unlisted
securities, such as the OTC Bulletin Board. Delisting would adversely affect the market
liquidity of our common stock and harm our business and may hinder or delay our ability to
consummate potential strategic transactions or investments. Such delisting could also adversely
affect our ability to obtain financing for the continuation of our operations and could result in
the loss of confidence by investors, suppliers and employees.
We have listed the exhibits by numbers corresponding to the Exhibit Table of Item 601 in
Regulation S-K on the Exhibit list attached to this report.
