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 Company’s 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 Company’s proprietary database. Each implantable Health Link microchip contains a unique verification number that is read when it is scanned by the Company’s scanner. In October 2004, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, or FDA, cleared the Company’s 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 Company’s 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 Company’s 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.

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 Company’s 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 entity’s 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 1—Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities.
 
   
Level 2—Inputs 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 3—Inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable.
The Company’s 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.

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 guarantor’s financial ability to repay the obligation in the event of a default. The note receivable is guaranteed by the Company’s 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, management’s 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 Company’s 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.

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 Company’s 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 Principles—a 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 Company’s 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.

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 Company’s 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 Company’s computation of expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of the Company’s comparable companies’ average historical volatility.

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 Vault’s 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 Company’s common stock;
 
    the expected life of issued stock options;
 
    the expected volatility of the Company’s 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.

(1)   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 Company’s 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 Company’s 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 Company’s 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 Company’s outstanding common stock. As of July 31, 2009, Mr. Silverman owned, directly or indirectly, approximately 59% of Steel Vault’s outstanding common stock, including 2,570,000 shares that are directly owned by Blue Moon. Mr. Silverman, the Company’s 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 Company’s 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 Company’s 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 Vault’s 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.

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 party’s 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.

The following discussion and analysis of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the accompanying financial statements and related 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 Company’s 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 Company’s proprietary database. Each implantable Health Link microchip contains a unique verification number that is read when it is scanned by the Company’s 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 Company’s request to remain listed on The Nasdaq Stock Market and the Company’s 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.

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 Company’s 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 parent’s 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 Company’s 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 Principles—a 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.

Item 3.   Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
As a “Smaller Reporting Company,” we are not required to provide the information required by this item.
Item 4T.   Controls and Procedures.
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 SEC’s 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.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION
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.
Item 1A.   Risk Factors.
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 Nasdaq’s 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 staff’s 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 staff’s 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.
