NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.  Management Opinion

The financial information as of September 30, 2006 and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, in the opinion of management, includes all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, that are considered necessary for fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of Integrated Alarm Services Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries’ (“IASG” or the “Company”) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006 in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The results for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have not been presented herein, in accordance with regulations. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2005 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K. The 2005 year-end balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). Certain prior period revenue and expenses in the consolidated statement of operations have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

2.  Notes Receivable

The Company’s notes receivable consisted of the following:

	December 31, 2005			September 30, 2006
	(in thousands)
Performing loans	$	17,693		$	14,181
Non-performing loans		1,664			1,055
Total Loans		19,357			15,236
Less: Reserves		(246	)		(246	)
Purchase discount		(2,918	)		(1,678	)
Net loans	$	16,193		$	13,312

At December 31, 2005 and September 30, 2006, the Company had non-performing loans aggregating approximately $1,664,000 and $1,055,000, respectively. Currently the cash flow from the underlying collateral supports the carrying value of the loans, therefore no impairment charge was recorded. However, if the cash flow from the underlying collateral deteriorates, it may result in a future charge to earnings.

As part of the acquisitions of National Alarm Computer Center (“NACC”) in 2004 and Financial Security Services, Inc. (“FSS”) in 2005, the Company agreed to assume NACC and FSS’s obligations to provide open lines of credit to Dealers, subject to the terms of the agreements with the Dealers. At December 31, 2005 and September 30, 2006, amounts available to Dealers under these lines of credit were $6,195,000 and $5,640,000, respectively. The Company intends to fund these commitments with available funds and available capacity under the $30.0 million LaSalle Credit Facility.

The purchase discount resulted from the acquisitions of NACC and FSS. Unamortized purchase discount on acquired notes that are prepaid within the first year of acquisition is offset to goodwill.

3.  Goodwill and Intangibles

During the nine months ended September 30, 2006, goodwill decreased by approximately $68,716,000, due primarily to $65,000,000 goodwill impairment charge as a result of the Company’s annual goodwill impairment valuation; the allocation of approximately $2,659,000 to net assets of business transferred in the second quarter of 2006; approximately $839,000 related to FSS purchase price adjustments; $64,000 of direct acquisition costs and, approximately $282,000 of unamortized purchase discount primarily from FSS loans being prepaid during the nine months ended September 30, 2006. In connection with the segment realignment in the third quarter of 2006, the Company reallocated approximately $9,825,000 from the Residential segment to the Commercial segment during the third quarter of 2006 based on the relative fair value of the segments at September 30, 2006. Goodwill from Residential segment of $860,000 and Commercial segment of $340,000 was reclassed to the Wholesale segment at December 31, 2005 to revise a prior misclassification.

Balance at 9/30/2006	$	9,068	$	10,724		$	6,411		$	26,203

The Company accounts for its goodwill under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets (“SFAS No. 142”). Under SFAS No. 142, goodwill is not amortized, but it is tested for impairment at least annually. Each year the Company tests for impairment of goodwill according to a two-step approach. In the first step, the Company tests for impairment of goodwill by estimating the fair values of its reporting units using the present value of future cash flows approach, subject to a comparison for reasonableness to its market capitalization at the date of valuation. If the carrying amount exceeds the fair value, the second step of the goodwill impairment test is performed to measure the amount of the impairment loss, if any. In the second step, the implied fair value of the goodwill is estimated as the fair value of the reporting unit used in the first step less the fair values of all other net tangible and intangible assets of the reporting unit. If the carrying amount of the goodwill exceeds its implied fair market value, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to that excess, not to exceed the carrying amount of the goodwill. In addition, goodwill of a reporting unit is tested for impairment between annual tests if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying value. The Company performs its annual impairment test in the third quarter of each year and previously had not been required to record an impairment charge. During the second quarter of 2004 and continuing through the third quarter of 2006, the common stock of the Company traded below its book value. During the third quarter of 2006, the Company’s Residential and Commercial segments continued to incur operating losses and failed to achieve their respective nine months operating plan. As a result, the Company revised its future operating forecasts and determined that goodwill was impaired at September 30, 2006. Such revised forecasts are also the result of the organizational changes that our new management began to implement in the third quarter of 2006.  A non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $65,000,000 has been recorded in the third quarter of 2006. The impairment reduces the goodwill associated with the Residential segment by $47,430,000 and the Commercial segment by $17,570,000.

Customer Contracts and Dealer Relationships

SFAS No. 144 Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long Lived Assets requires that long-lived assets be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of the assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of the assets with the future net cash flows expected to be generated. Cash flows of dealer relationships and residential customer contracts are analyzed at the same group level (acquisition by acquisition and portfolio grouping, respectively) that they are identified for amortization, the lowest level for which independent cash flows are identifiable. All other long-lived assets are evaluated for impairment at the Company level, using one asset grouping. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. The Company has identified no impairment losses for these assets during the nine months ended September 30, 2005 and 2006.

The Company acquired customer contracts with a $246,000 gross recurring monthly revenue (“RMR”) from CenterPoint Energy Resources Corp on September 29, 2006 for $7,764,000. This purchase is recorded in the existing portfolio grouping below.

Customer contracts at September 30, 2006 consist of the following:

		Existing Portfolio			Dealer Acquired			Contracts assumed from Dealers		Total
	(in thousands)

Customer contracts, net September 30, 2006	$	52,086		$	19,383		$	1,353	$	72,822

Customer contract amortization expense for the three months ended September 30, 2005 and 2006 was $5,906,000 and $5,105,000 respectively. Customer contract amortization expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 and 2006 was $15,789,000 and $15,112,000, respectively. The amortization expense was reduced by approximately $545,000 and $105,000 using attrition reserves from contract purchase transactions for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 and 2006, respectively. The primary increase in gross customer contracts is the result of the purchase of contracts during the third quarter of 2006 offset by the sale of contracts during the second quarter of 2006 more fully described in Note 7.

Dealer relationships consist of the following:

	Cost		Accumulated Amortization		Net
	(in thousands)

Amortization expense for dealer relationships was $1,175,000 and $1,131,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2005 and 2006, respectively. Amortization expense for dealer relationships was $3,438,000 and $3,394,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 and 2006, respectively.

Estimated amortization expense of customer contracts, dealer relationships, other identifiable intangible assets and deferred customer acquisition costs for the years ending December 31, 2006 through 2010 is as follows:

Year		Customer Contracts		Dealer Relationships		Other Identifiable Intangible Assets		Deferred Customer Acquisition Costs		Total
	(in thousands)
2006                          (three months)	$	2,376	$	1,118	$	159	$	519	$	4,172
2007		8,735		4,060		615		1,933		15,343
2008		7,949		3,802		599		1,639		13,989
2009		7,105		3,542		554		1,288		12,489
2010		6,115		3,277		119		907		10,418

Customer contract amortization for existing portfolios acquired subsequent to January 31, 2003 is calculated using an 18 year straight-line rate. No attrition has been recognized in the customer contract amortization projected for future years. The actual amortization expense in future periods will be higher due to the impact of attrition. The net unamortized cost of portfolios subject to variable amortization based upon attrition was approximately $49,001,000 as of September 30, 2006.

4.Stockholders’ Equity

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company’s 2003 Stock Option Plan and 2004 Stock Option Plan, collectively (“SOP”) permit the grant of options which may either be “incentive stock options” (“ISOs”) or “non-qualified stock options: (“NSOs”). The total number of shares of our common stock that may be issued under the SOP may not exceed 1,350,000, subject to possible adjustment in the future as described below. All employees, officers, directors, consultants and independent contractors of the Company, or of any parent, subsidiary or affiliate are eligible to be granted options.

The exercise price of an option granted under the SOP may not be less than 100% of the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant (110% of such fair market value in the case of an ISO granted to an optionee who owns or is deemed to own stock possessing more than 10% of the combined voting power of all classes of our stock).

The number of shares of common stock authorized for issuance under the SOP may be adjusted in the event our shares of common stock are changed into, or exchanged for cash, or securities of another entity through a reorganization, merger, recapitalization, reclassification, stock split, stock dividend, stock consolidation or combination or other similar transaction.

In the event of the occurrence of any of the foregoing, the compensation committee may adjust the number of authorized shares under the SOP, and the options issued under the SOP, as appropriate under the circumstances.

Prior to January 1, 2006, the Company accounted for activity under the employee stock plans using the intrinsic value method prescribed by Accounting Principles Board Opinion (“APB”) No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and had adopted the disclosure-only provisions of SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation as amended by SFAS No. 148, (Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation-Transition and Disclosure). Under APB No. 25, the Company generally recognized no compensation expense with respect to options granted to employees and directors as the option exercise price is generally equal to or greater than the fair value of the Company’s common stock on the date of the grant. The value of stock options granted to non-employees were expensed.

4.Stockholders’ Equity (cont.)

Effective January 1, 2006, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 123 (revised), Share-Based Payment (“FAS 123R”), an amendment of FAS No. 123 (“FAS 123”), Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation. FAS 123R eliminates the ability to account for share-based payments using Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees and instead requires companies to recognize compensation expense using a fair-value based method for costs related to share-based payments including stock options and employee stock purchase plans. The expense will be measured as the fair value of the award at its grant date based on the estimated number of awards that are expected to vest, and recorded over the applicable service period. In the absence of an observable market price for a share-based award, the fair value would be based upon a valuation methodology that takes into consideration various factors, including the exercise price of the award, the expected term of the award, the current price of the underlying shares, the expected volatility of the underlying share price, the expected dividends on the underlying shares and the risk-free interest rate. The standard also provides for different transition methods for past award grants, including the restatement of prior period results. The Company has elected to apply the modified prospective transition method to all past awards outstanding and unvested as of the effective date of January 1, 2006 and is recognizing the associated expense over the remaining vesting period based on the fair values previously determined and disclosed as part of our pro-forma disclosures. The Company will not restate the results of prior periods. Prior to the effective date of FAS 123R, the Company provided the pro-forma disclosures for past award grants as required under FAS 123. As such, the Company has recognized expense for unvested options during the quarter ended September 30, 2005 and 2006 of approximately $0 and $152,000, respectively. The Company has recognized expense for unvested options of $0 and $315,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 and 2006, respectively.

The Company used the Black-Scholes option-pricing model (“Black-Scholes”) as its method of valuation under FAS 123R in fiscal year 2006 and a single option award approach. This fair value is then amortized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service periods of the awards, which is generally the vesting period. Black-Scholes was previously used for the Company’s proforma information required under FAS 123 for periods prior to fiscal year 2006. The fair value of share-based payment awards on the date of grant as determined by the Black-Scholes model is affected by our stock price as well as other assumptions, including, but not limited to the expected volatility over the term of the awards and risk-free interest rate.

The fair value of each option plan option grant was estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option valuation model with the following weighted average assumptions:

	2005	2006
Risk-free interest rate	4.07%	4.56%
Volatility	63%	63%
Expected Term (in years)	5	3
Dividend yield	0%	0%

4.Stockholders’ Equity (cont.)

The following table reflects the proforma information of the Company for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005 as if the compensation cost had been determined in accordance with the fair value-based method prescribed by FAS 123R. 

	Three Months Ended Sept 30, 2005 Proforma			Nine Months Ended Sept 30, 2005 Proforma
	(in thousands, except per share amounts)
Net income (loss), as reported (1)	$	(5,428	)	$	(14,354	)
Less: Stock-based compensation expense, net of tax (2)		(19	)		(100	)

Net income (loss) per share, as reported for the prior period-basic and diluted (1)	$	(0.22	)	$	(0.58	)
Net income (loss) per share-basic and diluted, including the effect of stock-based compensation expense (3)	$	(0.22	)	$	(0.59	)

(1) Net income and net income (loss) per share for periods prior to fiscal year 2006 do not include stock-based compensation expense under FAS 123, because the Company did not adopt the recognition provisions of FAS 123.

(2) Stock-based compensation expense for periods prior to fiscal year 2006 was calculated based on the proforma application of FAS 123. There is no tax benefit associated with the compensation expense due to the full valuation allowance on deferred tax benefits.

(3) Net income (loss) per share for periods prior to fiscal year 2006 represent proforma information based on FAS 123. The Company recognized approximately $152,000 of stock-based compensation expense during the quarter ended September 30, 2006. This expense had $0.01 impact on the net loss per share for the quarter ended September 30, 2006.

The Company recognized approximately $315,000 of stock-based compensation expense in the nine months ended September 30, 2006.  This expense had $0.01 impact on the net loss per share for the period ended September 30, 2006.

As of September 30, 2006, there was approximately $92,000 of unamortized compensation cost related to non-vested stock option awards, which is expected to be recognized over a remaining weighted average vesting period of 0.2 years.

Company stock options outstanding as of September 30, 2006 are as follows: 

	Options				Weighted Average Exercise Price		Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Term (in years)

Dividend payments are restricted by both the revolving credit agreement (no outstanding balance) and the $125 million Senior Secured Notes (“Notes”). The revolving credit agreement does not permit the payment of any dividends. To pay a cumulative dividend in excess of $1.5 million, the Notes would require cumulative net income in excess of $119 million and a fixed charge coverage ratio in excess of 2.5 to 1.0.

5.Income Taxes

A benefit related to the projected losses may not be recognized due to the Company’s continued belief that a full valuation allowance is required as an offset to its deferred tax assets. Deferred tax expense is a result of an increase in deferred tax liabilities. The deferred tax liability represents the state deferred tax liability of IASG which cannot be offset by the state deferred tax asset of its subsidiaries due to the companies being subject to state taxes in different state tax jurisdictions. Prior to the goodwill impairment charge in the third quarter of 2006 the Company also recorded deferred tax liabilities relating to tax goodwill basis differences associated with acquisitions. Current taxes include minimum taxes, capital taxes and state income taxes imposed on companies in separate taxing jurisdictions. As a result of the goodwill impairment charge, those deferred tax liabilities in the amount of $1,087,000 were eliminated, resulting in a tax benefit in the provision for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006.

7. Disposal of Assets

During the second quarter of 2006, the Company sold alarm contracts in Colorado, Idaho and Utah for $7,100,000 and other assets including inventory, vehicles and deposits valued at approximately $224,000. The Company received a cash payment of approximately $762,000 (which has been classified as “Advanced payment”) and the balance of approximately $6,512,000 in the form of a promissory note due December 31, 2006. The Company incurred direct and incremental costs related to the transaction in the aggregate amount of $377,000, which is reflected in the table below as prepaid expenses.  The note bears interest of 12% per annum with interest payable monthly. If no event of default has occurred, the buyer has the option up to December 31, 2006 to pay $1 million on the note to extend its maturity date to July 1, 2007 with interest of 13% per annum. The agreement includes a sales price adjustment for an attrition guarantee for the six months ended November 30, 2006 when the contract attrition is more than 5% of the total recurring monthly revenue acquired. The Total recurring monthly revenue (“RMR”) sold was $212,000. If the buyer incurs attrition in excess of $11,000 of the RMR, the Company will reimburse the buyer for the next approximately $11,000 of RMR that is lost at a rate of $34.773 per $1 of RMR lost, up to a maximum purchase price adjustment of approximately $369,000. The Company will continue to provide the monitoring and billing services until the note is paid. The sale will be recognized when the note is paid in full, the attrition guarantee has been settled, and continuing involvement (monitoring services) has ceased.  The assets and liabilities of the business transferred have been separately segregated on the consolidated balance sheet at September 30, 2006.  The net assets of the business transferred were determined to be impaired; as a result the Company recognized a $500,000 charge to operations during the second quarter of 2006.

8.  Litigation

In March 2003, Protection One, a company engaged in the business of providing security and other alarm monitoring services to residential and commercial customers, brought an action against the Company in the Superior Court of New Jersey, Camden County for $1.4 million of unspecified damages in connection with the Company’s purchase of certain alarm monitoring contracts from B&D Advertising Corp. B&D had previously sold alarm monitoring contracts to Protection One. As part of such sales, B&D agreed not to solicit any customers whose contracts had been purchased and to keep certain information confidential. Protection One claims that the Company’s subsequent purchase of contracts from B&D constitutes tortious interference, that the Company utilized confidential information belonging to Protection One and that Protection One had an interest in some of the contracts that the Company purchased from B&D. The Company plans to vigorously defend this claim. The Company believes the resolution of this matter will not have a material adverse effect on its financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

In December of 2005, Ira R. Beer, former president of the Company’s American Home Security, Inc (“AHS”) subsidiary in Las Vegas, brought an action against AHS and the Company in District Court for Clark County, Nevada. Mr. Beer seeks monies allegedly due under a certain Employment Agreement dated November 21, 2003. Mr. Beer’s employment was terminated,for cause, on December 8, 2005. Mr. Beer’s lawsuit alleges that his termination was not for cause and that he is owed unpaid salary through the end of 2006 of some $440,000 and a certain “bonus buy-out” which he asserts to be approximately $2,192,000. He also seeks unspecified punitive damages. The Company has filed a counterclaim against Mr. Beer for derogation of his management duties. Based on the terms of the employment agreement and preliminary settlement negotiations, the Company has recorded a liability totaling $1.75 million for the settlement of this claim at September 30, 2006.

On June 26, 2006, former Company president Thomas J. Few, Sr. initiated litigation against the Company in connection with his termination of employment, seeking a monetary award for amounts allegedly due to him under an employment agreement. The claim was filed in the Superior Court of New Jersey, in the Bergen County Law Division. The principal parties to the suit are Thomas J. Few, Sr. and the Company. Mr. Few alleges that he is owed up to 36 months of pay as well as an amount representing accrued but unused vacation as a result of his resignation following the Company's alleged breach of the employment agreement. Based upon preliminary settlement negotiations, the Company expects to settle this claim for a nominal amount.

The Company is involved in litigation and various legal matters that have arisen in the ordinary course of business. The Company does not believe that the outcome of these matters will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows, although it is possible that an adverse resolution of a number of these matters could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or cash flows in a particular quarter or fiscal year.

9. Segment and Related Information

During the third quarter of 2006, the Company realigned its segments, Prior period segment information has been retroactively adjusted to reflect this realignment. Effective third quarter of 2006, IASG has three reportable segments: alarm-monitoring wholesale services, alarm-monitoring residential services and alarm-monitoring commercial services. The Company has determined its reportable segments based on its method of internal reporting which is used by management for making operational decisions and assessing performance.

The alarm-monitoring wholesale services segment provides monitoring services to a broad range of independent alarm-monitoring dealers. The alarm-monitoring residential services segment provides monitoring services to its end customers, working capital to independent alarm-monitoring dealers and customer service and billing and collection services to our portfolio of accounts. This is accomplished by purchasing alarm monitoring contracts from the dealer or by providing loans using the dealer's alarm monitoring contracts as collateral. IASI provides monitoring services (through IASG and other affiliated and non-affiliated entities) to its customers through the wholesale segment. The alarm-monitoring commercial services segment is a commercial security integrator that provides installation, testing and maintenance for commercial customers as well as monitoring services to its end customers.

Management has determined that an appropriate measure of the performance of its operating segments would be made through an evaluation of each segment's income (loss) before income taxes. The Company does not allocate corporate accounting, legal and other professional fees, corporate salaries, benefits and other compensation, director related expenses and other corporate expenses to the segments because the decision making for the majority of these expenses does not reside within the segments. Interest related charges are allocated to the segments based on inter-company agreements in place during the specific year. Accordingly, the Company's summarized financial information regarding the Company's reportable segments is presented through income (loss) before income taxes for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005 and 2006.

10.  New Accounting Pronouncements

In September 2006, the SEC staff issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 108, “Considering the Effects of Prior year Misstatemetns when Quantifying Misstatements in Current year Financial Statements.” SAB 108 was issued in order to eliminate the diversity of practice surrounding how public companies quantify financial statement misstatements. The Company will be required to apply the guidance contained in SAB 108 beginning with financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2006. The Company believes that adopting SAB 108 will not have any effect on its financial statements.

In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157 Fair Value Measurements. This statement defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This Statement applies under other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements. The Company will be required to adopt this Statement on January 1, 2007 and will apply the requirements prospectively to all transactions after the effective date. The Company has not yet determined the effect that adopting FAS No. 157 will have on its financial statements.

In June 2006, the FASB issued FIN 48 which clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements in accordance with FASB Statement No. 109, Accounting for Income taxes. This Interpretation prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. This Interpretation also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. The Company will be required to adopt this Standard on January 1, 2007 and has not yet determined the effect that adopting FIN 48 will have on the financial statements.

In March 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 156, Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assets, an amendment of FASB Statement No. 140 (“FAS No. 156”). This Standard amends FASB Statement No. 140, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing Assets and Extinguishment of Liabilities, with respect to the accounting for separately recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities. This Standard requires an entity to recognize a servicing asset or servicing liability each time it undertakes an obligation to service a financial asset by entering into a servicing contract when there is a related sale of financial assets, certain transfers, or assumption of an obligation to service a financial asset that does not relate to the financial assets of the servicer. The Company will be required to adopt this Statement on January 1, 2007 and will apply the requirements prospectively to all transactions after the effective date. The Company has not yet determined the effect that adopting FAS No. 156 will have on its financial statements.

In February 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 155, Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial Instruments, an amendment of FASB statements No. 133 and 140 (“FAS No. 155”). This Standard resolves and clarifies the accounting and reporting for certain financial instruments including, hybrid financial instruments with embedded derivatives, interest-only strips, and securitized financial instruments. FAS No. 155 is effective for all financial instruments acquired or issued after the beginning of an entity’s first fiscal year that begins after September 15, 2006. The Company will be required to adopt this Standard on January 1, 2007 and has not yet determined the effect that adopting FAS No. 155 will have on the financial statements.

In May 2005, the FASB issued FAS No. 154, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections — a replacement of APB Opinion No. 20 and FAS Statement No. 3. This Standard requires retrospective application to prior periods’ financial statements of changes in accounting principle, unless it is impracticable to determine either the period-specific effects or the cumulative effect of the change. This Standard also requires that retrospective application of a change in accounting principle be limited to the direct effects of the change. Indirect effects of a change in accounting principle, such as a change in nondiscretionary profit-sharing payments resulting from an accounting change, should be recognized in the period of the accounting change. In addition, this Standard requires that a change in depreciation, amortization, or depletion method for long-lived, non-financial assets be accounted for as a change in accounting estimate affected by a change in accounting principle. The Company adopted the Standard on January 1, 2006 and it did not have any effect on the Company’s financial statements.

In November 2004, the FASB issued FAS No. 151, Inventory Costs, an amendment of ARB No. 43, Chapter 4. This Standard requires that items such as idle facility expense and excess spoilage be recognized as current period charges. Under ARB No. 43, such costs were considered inventoriable costs unless they were considered so abnormal as to require immediate expensing. The Company adopted the Standard on January 1, 2006 and it did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE MONTHS AND NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2006.

Executive Overview

The Company conducts business in the security industry through three segments:

·   Alarm Monitoring Wholesale Services (Wholesale Segment) The alarm-monitoring wholesale services segment provides monitoring services to a broad range of independent alarm-monitoring dealers. This division also offers administrative services such as billing and collection to dealers. Criticom International, our wholesale services also provides monitoring services to our other divisions.

·   Alarm Monitoring Residential Services (Residential Segment) The alarm-monitoring retail services segment provides monitoring services to its end customers, working capital to independent alarm-monitoring dealers and customer service and billing and collection services to our portfolio of accounts. This is accomplished by purchasing alarm monitoring contracts from the dealer or by providing loans using the dealer's alarm monitoring contracts as collateral. The monitoring of the customer’s system is performed primarily by Criticom International.

·   Alarm Monitoring Commercial Services (Commercial Segment) The alarm-monitoring commercial services segment is a commercial security integrator that provides installation, testing and maintenance for commercial customers as well as monitoring services to its end customers. Growth in this segment is accomplished by purchasing alarm monitoring contracts from dealers or by installing monitoring systems for new commercial customers. The monitoring of the customer’s system is performed exclusively by Criticom International.

Management’s approach to each of its security businesses is similar, with a focus on quality service, risk management and a patient and disciplined approach to markets. Management believes each business is a premium provider of services in the markets that it serves. The Company’s marketing and sales efforts are enhanced by its brands so the Company seeks to protect their value. Since the Company’s services focus on protecting people and valuables, its employees strive to understand and manage risk. Overlaying management’s approach is an understanding that the Company must be disciplined and patient enough to charge fair prices that reflect the value provided, the risk assumed and the need for an appropriate return on invested capital.

The business environments in which the Company’s security businesses operate throughout the United States are constantly changing. Management continually adapts to changes in the competitive landscapes, economic conditions in different parts of the country and each customer’s level of business. As a result, the Company operates largely on a decentralized basis so local management can adjust operations to its unique circumstances.

19

For the same reasons that the Company operates on a decentralized basis, short-term forecasts of performance are difficult to make with precision. As a result, the Company does not provide detailed earnings forecasts.

The Company measures financial performance on a long-term basis. The key financial factors on which it focuses are:

·   Growth in revenues and earnings

·   Attrition minimization

·   Generation of cash flow

·   Creation of value through portfolio growth

These and similar measures are critical components of the Company’s employee performance evaluations.

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the accompanying Financial Statements and Notes thereto.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our discussion and analysis of results of operations, financial condition and cash flows are based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. These estimates are evaluated on an on-going basis, including those related to revenue recognition and allowance for doubtful accounts, valuation to allocate the purchase price for a business combination, notes receivable reserve and fair value of customer contracts on foreclosed loans, fair value and forecasted data to assess recoverability of intangible assets and goodwill, income taxes, and contingencies and litigation. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Revenue Recognition and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

All revenue is recognized on an accrual basis. Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest. Credit is extended based upon an evaluation of the customer’s financial condition and history. The allowance for doubtful accounts is our best estimate of the amount of probable credit losses in our existing accounts receivable. We review our allowance for doubtful accounts monthly. Customer accounts, including accounts with balances over 90 days from the invoice date are reserved based on historical trends. Account balances are charged-off against the allowance when we feel it is probable the receivable will not be recovered. We do not have any off-balance-sheet credit exposure related to our customers.

Revenue from providing monitoring only service to the customers of our dealers and our residential owned customer contracts is recognized as the monitoring service (including contracts acquired from dealer, other third parties, in business acquisitions or under foreclosure) is provided over the term of the contract. Certain owned customer contracts are being monitored by third party monitoring service providers. We recognize revenue from these contracts as the monitoring service is being provided.

Revenue from sales of installed equipment without monitoring is recognized upon the completed installation of the equipment.

We sell bundled arrangements to our commercial and residential customers which consist of equipment, installation services and ongoing monitoring services generally under three to five year contracted terms. These bundled arrangements generally require an upfront payment and recurring monthly revenue (“RMR”) payments over the term of the contract. Amounts assigned to each component are based on the component’s objectively determined fair value. If fair value can not be determined for a sale involving multiple elements, upfront non-refundable deposits are deferred and recognized over the expected life of the customer relationship. The RMR is recognized monthly over the term of the contract.

Notes Receivable Reserve and Fair Value of Customer Contracts on Foreclosed Loans

We make loans to Dealers, which are collateralized by the Dealers’ portfolio of end-user alarm monitoring contracts. Loans to Dealers are carried at the lower of the principal amount outstanding or if non-performing, the net realizable value of the portfolio underlying the loan. Loans are generally considered non-performing if they are 120 days in arrears of contractual terms.

Management periodically evaluates the loan portfolio to assess the collectibility of Dealer notes and adequacy of allowance for loan losses. Management reviews certain criteria in assessing the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses, including our past loan loss experience, known and inherent risks in the portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrower's ability to repay, the estimated value of any underlying collateral and current economic conditions. Loan impairment is identified when a portfolio's cash flow is materially below the minimum necessary to service the loan. In most cases, loans will be foreclosed and valued at the lower of cost (loan carrying value) or fair value of end-user contracts using recent transaction prices and industry benchmarks.

20

Unearned discount on acquired notes that are prepaid within the first year of acquisition is offset to goodwill.

Notes receivable consists primarily of loans to Dealers which are collateralized by a portfolio of individual end-user monitoring contracts. When a Dealer becomes delinquent, we generally foreclose on and take ownership of, the portfolio of customer’s monitoring contracts resulting in an increase in customer contracts and a decrease in notes receivable.

At September 30, 2006, we had non-performing loans to Dealers aggregating approximately $1,055,000. Currently, the cash flows from the underlying collateral support the carrying value of the loans. However, if the cash flow from the underlying collateral deteriorates, it may result in a future charge to earnings.

Deferred customer acquisition costs, net

The direct incremental costs associated with obtaining a new customer including the installation of the monitoring systems, to the extent of deferred revenue (upfront non-refundable deposits), are capitalized and amortized over the expected life of the customer relationship. Excess direct incremental costs over deferred revenue (upfront non-refundable deposits) are being amortized over the term of the contract. Direct incremental cost associated with contracts in which there is no associated upfront installation revenue are amortized over the life of the contract.

Debt Issuance Costs

Debt issuance costs represents direct costs incurred in connection with obtaining financing with related parties, banks and other lenders. Debt issuance costs are being amortized over the life of the related obligations using the effective interest method.

Intangible Assets and Goodwill

Alarm monitoring services for Dealers’ end-users are outsourced to us. We acquire such Dealer relationships from our internally generated sales efforts and from other monitoring companies. Acquired Dealer relationships are recorded at cost, which management believes approximates fair value. End-user alarm monitoring contracts are acquired from the Dealers’ pre-existing portfolios of contracts or assumed upon the foreclosure on Dealers’ loans.

Acquired end-user alarm monitoring contracts are recorded at cost which management believes approximates fair value. End-user alarm monitoring contracts assumed as a result of foreclosure on dealer loans are recorded at the lower of cost (loan carrying value) or the fair value of such contracts using recent transaction prices and industry benchmarks at the time of foreclosure.

End-user alarm monitoring contracts are amortized over the term that such end-users are expected to remain as our customer. We, on an ongoing basis, conduct comprehensive reviews of our amortization policy for end-user contracts and, when deemed appropriate, use an independent appraisal firm to assist in performing an attrition study.

Dealer relationships and end-user contracts are amortized using methods and lives which are management’s estimates, based upon all information available (including industry data, attrition studies, current portfolio trends), of the life (attrition pattern) of the underlying contracts and relationships. If actual results vary negatively (primarily attrition) from management assumptions, amortization will be accelerated, which will negatively impact results from operations. If amortization is not accelerated or conditions deteriorate dramatically, the asset could become impaired. For existing portfolio accounts purchased subsequent to January 31, 2003, we amortize such accounts using the straight-line method over an 18-year period plus actual attrition. This methodology may cause significant variations in amortization expense in future periods.

Dealer relationships and end-user alarm monitoring contracts are tested for impairment on a periodic basis or as circumstances warrant. Recoverability of Dealer relationship costs and end-user alarm monitoring contracts are highly dependent on our ability to maintain our Dealers. Factors we consider important that could trigger an impairment review include higher levels of attrition of Dealers and/or end-user alarm monitoring contracts and continuing recurring losses.

SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, requires that the assets be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of the assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of the assets with the future net cash flows expected to be generated. Cash flows of Dealer relationships and residential customer contracts are analyzed at the same group level (acquisition by acquisition and portfolio grouping, respectively) that they are identified for amortization, the lowest level for which independent cash flows are identifiable. All other long-lived assets are evaluated for impairment at the company level, using one asset grouping. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. As of September 30, 2006, our long-lived assets aggregate approximately $121,160,000.

21

We account for goodwill under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets (“SFAS No. 142”). Under SFAS No. 142, goodwill is not amortized, but it is tested for impairment at least annually. Each year we test for impairment of goodwill according to a two-step approach. In the first step, we test for impairment of goodwill by estimating the fair values of our reporting units using the present value of future cash flows approach, subject to a comparison for reasonableness to our market capitalization at the date of valuation. If the carrying amount exceeds the fair value, the second step of the goodwill impairment test is performed to measure the amount of the impairment loss, if any. In the second step the implied fair value of the goodwill is estimated as the fair value of the reporting unit used in the first step less the fair values of all other net tangible and intangible assets of the reporting unit. If the carrying amount of the goodwill exceeds its implied fair market value, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to that excess, not to exceed the carrying amount of the goodwill. If a goodwill impairment change is required we would be required to assess whether our long-lived assets are impaired.  In addition, goodwill of a reporting unit is tested for impairment between annual tests if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying value. We perform our annual impairment test in the third quarter of each year and previously had not been required to record an impairment charge. During the second quarter of 2004 and continuing through the third quarter of 2006, our common stock traded below its book value. After evaluating current financial forecasts and operating trends, Management determined that goodwill was impaired at September 30, 2006.   A non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $65,000,000 has been recorded in the third quarter of 2006. Our goodwill balance at September 30, 2006 is approximately $26,203,000.

Stock-Based Compensation

Prior to January 1, 2006, we accounted for activity under the employee stock plans using the intrinsic value method prescribed by Accounting Principles Board Opinion (“APB”) No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and had adopted the disclosure-only provisions of SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation as amended by SFAS No. 148, (Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation-Transition and Disclosure). Under APB No. 25, we generally recognized no compensation expense with respect to options granted to employees and directors as the option exercise price is generally equal to or greater than the fair value of the our common stock on the date of the grant. The value of stock options granted to non-employees were expensed.

Effective January 1, 2006, we adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 123 (revised), Share-Based Payment (“FAS 123R”), an amendment of FAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation. FAS 123R eliminates the ability to account for share-based payments using Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees and instead requires companies to recognize compensation expense using a fair-value based method for costs related to share-based payments including stock options and employee stock purchase plans. The expense will be measured as the fair value of the award at its grant date based on the estimated number of awards that are expected to vest, and recorded over the applicable service period. In the absence of an observable market price for a share-based award, the fair value would be based upon a valuation methodology that takes into consideration various factors, including the exercise price of the award, the expected term of the award, the current price of the underlying shares, the expected volatility of the underlying share price, the expected dividends on the underlying shares and the risk-free interest rate. The standard also provides for different transition methods for past award grants, including the restatement of prior period results. We have elected to apply the modified prospective transition method to all past awards outstanding and unvested as of the effective date of January 1, 2006 and are recognizing the associated expense over the remaining vesting period based on the fair values previously determined and disclosed as part of our pro-forma disclosures. We will not restate the results of prior periods. Prior to the effective date of FAS 123R, we provided the pro-forma disclosures for past award grants as required under FAS 123. As such, we have recognized expense for unvested options during the quarter ended September 30, 2006 of approximately $152,000 and during

the nine months ended September 30, 2006 of approximately $315,000.

We used the Black-Scholes option-pricing model (“Black-Scholes”) as its method of valuation under FAS 123R in fiscal year 2006 and a single option award approach. This fair value is then amortized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service periods of the awards, which is generally the vesting period. Black-Scholes was previously used for our proforma information required under FAS 123 for periods prior to fiscal year 2006. The fair value of share-based payment awards on the date of grant as determined by the Black-Scholes model is affected by our stock price as well as other assumption, including, but not limited to the expected volatility over the term of the awards and risk-free interest rate.

Income taxes

As part of the process of preparing our financial statements, we are required to estimate our income taxes in each of the jurisdictions in which we operate. This process will involve estimates of our actual current tax exposure together with assessing temporary differences resulting from differing treatment of items, such as depreciation and amortization, for tax and accounting purposes. A tax valuation allowance is established, as needed, to reduce net deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. In the event it becomes more than likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax asset valuation allowance will not be needed, the valuation allowance will be adjusted.

22

Contingencies and litigation

In March 2003, Protection One, a company engaged in the business of providing security and other alarm monitoring services to residential and commercial customers, brought an action against us in the Superior Court of New Jersey, Camden County for $1.4 million of unspecified damages in connection with our purchase of certain alarm monitoring contracts from B&D Advertising Corp. B&D had previously sold alarm monitoring contracts to Protection One. As part of such sales, B&D agreed not to solicit any customers whose contracts had been purchased and to keep certain information confidential. Protection One claims that our subsequent purchase of contracts from B&D constitutes tortious interference, that we utilized confidential information belonging to Protection One and that Protection One had an interest in some of the contracts that we purchased from B&D. We plan to vigorously defend this claim. We believe the resolution of this matter will not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

In December of 2005, Ira R. Beer, former president of our American Home Security, Inc (“AHS”) subsidiary in Las Vegas, brought an action against AHS and us in District Court for Clark County, Nevada. Mr. Beer seeks monies allegedly due under a certain Employment Agreement dated November 21, 2003. Mr. Beer’s employment was terminated, for cause, on December 8, 2005. Mr. Beer’s lawsuit alleges that his termination was not for cause and that he is owed unpaid salary through the end of 2006 of some $440,000 and a certain “bonus buy-out” which he asserts to be approximately $2,192,000. He also seeks unspecified punitive damages. We have filed a counterclaim against Mr. Beer for derogation of his management duties. Based on the terms of the employment agreement and preliminary settlement negotiations, we have recorded a liability totaling $1.75 million for the settlement of this claim at September 30, 2006.

On June 26, 2006, our former president Thomas J. Few, Sr. initiated litigation against us in connection with his termination of employment, seeking a monetary award for amounts allegedly due to him under an employment agreement. The claim was filed in the Superior Court of New Jersey, in the Bergen County Law Division. The principal parties to the suit are Thomas J. Few, Sr. and us. Mr. Few alleges that he is owed up to 36 months of pay as well as an amount representing accrued but unused vacation as a result of his resignation following the our alleged breach of the employment agreement. Based upon preliminary settlement negotiations, we expect to settle this claim for a nominal amount.

We are involved in litigation and various legal matters that have arisen in the ordinary course of business. We do not believe that the outcome of these matters will have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows, although it is possible that an adverse resolution of a number of these matters could have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations, or cash flows in a particular quarter or fiscal year.

Revenue

Total consolidated revenue decreased approximately $1,450,000. This decrease was due to decreases of approximately $1,646,000 and $319,000 in the residential and commercial segments, respectively, offset, in part, by an increase in revenue in wholesale segment of approximately $487,000 addressed in the individual segment discussions below. Additionally, eliminated in the consolidated statement of operations is an increase of approximately $28,000 in inter-segment revenue.

Cost of Revenue (excluding Depreciation and Amortization)

Total consolidated cost of revenue decreased approximately $1,555,000. This decrease was primarily due to a decrease of approximately $824,000, $122,000 and $637,000 in the wholesale, residential and commercial segments, respectively, offset by an increase of approximately $28,000 in inter-segment cost of revenue.

Operating Expenses

Total consolidated operating expenses increased approximately $65,439,000. This increase was primarily due to increases of approximately $142,000, $46,211,000, $17,516,000 and $1,570,000 in the wholesale, residential, commercial segments and corporate expenses, respectively.

Total consolidated selling and marketing expenses increased approximately $43,000. This increase was primarily due to increases of approximately $55,000 and $16,000 in the wholesale and commercial segments, respectively, offset, in part, by a decrease in the residential segment of approximately $28,000.

Total consolidated depreciation and amortization expenses decreased approximately $554,000. This decrease was primarily due to a decrease of approximately $714,000 in the residential segment, offset, in part, by increases of approximately $48,000, $105,000, $7,000 in the commercial segment , wholesale segment and corporate, respectively.

Loss on sale or disposal of assets in 2005 of approximately $333,000 compared to a gain in 2006 of approximately $76,000. Most of the loss in 2005 was attributable to the closure of certain dealer care centers and a monitoring station in the wholesale segment. 

24

Total consolidated general and administrative expenses increased approximately $1,359,000. This increase was primarily due to increases of approximately $193,000 and $1,563,000 in the wholesale segment and corporate expenses, respectively, offset, in part, by decreases of approximately $322,000 and $75,000 in the residential and commercial segments, respectively.

A non-cash goodwill impairment charge of approximately $65,000,000 was recorded in the quarter ended September 30, 2006 based upon the annual impairment test conducted as of September 30, 2006.

Amortization of Debt Issuance Costs

The decrease in amortization of debt issuance costs was due primarily to the decrease in amortization of certain debt issuance costs that became fully amortized by late 2005.

Interest Expense

The decrease in interest expense was due primarily to retirement of debt during 2005 offset, in part, by an increase in the expense related to the $125,000,000 debt placement as a result of it not being registered with the SEC.

Interest Income

Total consolidated interest income increased by approximately $92,000. This increase was primarily due to an increase in the residential segment of approximately $118,000, offset, in part, by a decrease of approximately $26,000 at corporate.

Taxes

The decrease in income tax expense is primarily due to the adjustment to deferred tax liabilities of $1,198,000 as a result of the goodwill impairment charge offset by an increase in current state income tax expense due to an increase of state taxes in separate taxing jurisdictions.

Results of Operations by Segment

The comparable financial results for the Company’s three segments: Wholesale Services, Residential Services and Commercial Services, as well as Corporate related income and expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2006 compared with the three months ended September 30, 2005 are discussed below.

The following charts and discussions include inter-segment revenue and cost of revenue that are eliminated in the consolidated financial statements. These amounts for the quarter ended September 30, 2006 and 2005 are approximately $1,131,000 and $1,159,000, respectively. The Residential and Commercial segments incur expense for the monitoring services provided by the wholesale segment. The inclusion of inter-segment activity provides a more realistic presentation of how these segments would operate on a stand alone basis.

25

Revenue from the wholesale segment increased approximately $487,000. This is primarily due to the increase in revenue of $1,121,000 from the acquisition of FSS in the fourth quarter of 2005. This increase was offset by a decrease of approximately $466,000 as a result of a decrease in the average number of contracts per month of approximately 33,000. An additional decrease of approximately $120,000 was due to a decrease in the average revenue per contract per month of approximately $0.08. Additional decreases of approximately $28,000 and approximately $20,000 were due to inter-segment and other revenues, respectively.

Cost of revenue for the wholesale segment decreased by approximately $824,000. This decrease was primarily due to reductions in rent expense of approximately $692,000 as a result of facility closures made during 2005 and telephone expense of approximately $131,000.

Operating expenses for the wholesale segment increased by approximately $142,000.

Revenue

Total consolidated revenue decreased approximately $3,378,000. This decrease was primarily due to decreases of approximately $2,625,000 and $1,082,000 in the residential and commercial segments, respectively, offset, in part, by an increase in revenue in wholesale segment of approximately $244,000 addressed in the individual segment discussions below. Additionally, eliminated in the consolidated statement of operations is a decrease of approximately $85,000 in inter-segment of revenue.

Cost of Revenue (excluding Depreciation and Amortization)

Total consolidated cost of revenue decreased approximately $3,101,000. This decrease was primarily due to a decrease of approximately $2,664,000 and $1,462,000 in the wholesale and commercial segments, respectively, offset by an increase of approximately $940,000 in the residential segment and approximately $85,000 of inter-segment cost of revenue.

Operating Expenses

Total consolidated operating expenses increased approximately $65,910,000. This increase was primarily due to increases of approximately $48,584,000, 16,671,000 and $1,792,000 in the residential segment, commercial segment and corporate expenses, respectively, offset, in part, by a decrease of approximately $1,137,000 in the wholesale segment.

Total consolidated selling and marketing expenses increased approximately $201,000. This increase is primarily attributable to increases of approximately $52,000 and $154,000 in the wholesale and commercial segments, respectively, offset, in part, by a decrease in the residential segment of approximately $5,000.

Total consolidated depreciation and amortization expenses decreased approximately $16,000. This decrease was primarily due to a decrease of $506,000 in the commercial segment, offset, in part, by increases of approximately $103,000, $377,000 and $10,000 in the wholesale segment, residential segment and corporate, respectively.

Total consolidated loss on sale of assets in 2005 of approximately $775,000 compared to a gain of approximately $105,000 in 2006.

Most of the loss in 2005 was attributable to the closure of certain dealer care centers and a monitoring station in the wholesale segment and the gain in 2006 is primarily attributable to the sale of the alarm contracts in the residential segment. 

The loss of business transferred of $500,000 is due to the sale of alarm contracts and other assets after recognizing an allocation of approximately $2,659,000 of goodwill.

Total consolidated general and administrative expenses increased approximately $1,105,000. This increase was primarily due to increases of approximately $459,000 and $1,782,000 in the residential segment and corporate, respectively, offset, in part, by decreases of approximately $647,000 and $489,000 in the wholesale and commercial segments, respectively.

A non-cash goodwill impairment charge of approximately $65,000,000 was recorded in the quarter ended September 30, 2006 based upon the annual impairment test conducted as of September 30, 2006.

Amortization of Debt Issuance Costs

Total consolidated amortization of debt issuance costs decreased approximately $110,000. This decrease was primarily due to the decrease in amortization of certain debt issuance costs that became fully amortized by late 2005.

Interest Expense

Total consolidated interest expense decreased approximately $313,000. This decrease was primarily due to the retirement of debt during 2005.

Interest Income

Total consolidated interest income decreased by approximately $216,000. This decrease was primarily due to a decrease of approximately $204,000 in the residential segment as a result of reduced loan balances in 2006 and by a decrease of approximately $12,000 at corporate.

Taxes

The decrease in income tax expense is primarily due to the adjustment to deferred tax liabilities of $1,198,000 as a result of the goodwill impairment charge offset by an increase in current state income tax expense primarily due to an increase of state taxes in separate taxing jurisdictions.

Income (loss) before income taxes	$	(19,937	)	$	(21,309	)	$	(1,372	)	6.9	%

The increase in the loss from operations of approximately $1,792,000 was due primarily to an increase in general and administrative expenses.  These increases included: salary, benefits and payroll taxes of approximately $958,000 due to allocation changes between the wholesale segment and corporate expenses and an increase in corporate headcount; approximately $1,340,000 of expense associated with the preliminary settlement of certain legal proceedings; stock based compensation of approximately $315,000; payroll processing fees of approximately $182,000; bank service charges of approximately $175,000; and travel and entertainment of approximately $135,000.  These increases were offset, in part, by a reduction in professional fess of approximately $1,387,000.

The increase in the loss before income taxes of approximately $1,372,000 was primarily due to the aforementioned increase in the loss from operations of approximately $1,792,000 in addition to a decrease to interest income of approximately $12,000. These decreases were partially offset, by reductions to interest expense and amortization of debt issuance costs resulting from retirement of debt during 2005 of approximately $322,000 and $110,000.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Net cash provided by operating activities was approximately $8,769,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared to approximately $7,160,000 provided by operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2005, an increase of approximately $1,609,000. The increase is primarily the result of an increase in the accounts payable and accrued expenses of approximately $3,175,000 and a decrease in the amount of deferred customer acquisition costs of approximately $1,681,000. These cash flows provided by operations were offset, in part, by a decrease in the net loss of approximately ($153,000) (exclusive of the impact of the non-cash impairment of goodwill); a decrease in deferred revenue - bundled arrangements of approximately ($715,000); and, the impact of reductions in non-cash bad debt and interest expenses of approximately ($640,000) and ($571,000), respectively.

Net cash used in investing activities was approximately ($8,550,000) for the first nine months of 2006 compared to approximately ($31,004,000) for the same period of 2005, a decrease in net cash used of approximately $22,454,000. The decrease in net cash used in investing activities was primarily due to deposit on an acquisition in the 2005 period of approximately $22,683,000; an increase in dealer loan repayments of approximately $1,777,000; and, a reduction to the acquisition of customer contracts and dealer relationships of approximately $744,000. These decreases in net cash used in investing activities were partially offset by an increase in new dealer loans of approximately $(2,650,000).

Net cash used in financing activities was approximately ($277,000) for the first nine months of 2006 compared to net cash from financing activities in the same period of 2005 of $1,415,000, a change of approximately ($1,439,000). The increase in cash used in financing activities was due primarily from the absence of any borrowing on the line of credit in 2006 compared to the ($3,000,000) borrowing in 2005. This increase in net cash used was offset, in part, by a decrease to repayment of long-term debt of approximately $950,000, a reduction in payments of obligations under capital leases of approximately $67,000 and a decrease in debt issuance costs of approximately $291,000. 

The balance sheet at September 30, 2006 reflects working capital of approximately $5,230,000.  As of September 30, 2006, we had recurring monthly revenue (“RMR”) of approximately $3,515,000 in our residential monitoring segment, $912,000 in our Commercial monitoring segment and approximately $2,525,000 in our wholesale monitoring segment.

33

Our capital expenditures anticipated over the next twelve months include leasehold improvements, equipment and software of approximately $5.2 million.  In addition, our strategy calls for us to purchase monitoring contracts at an aggregate cost of approximately $4,500,000.

As part of the NACC and FSS Acquisitions, we agreed to assume obligations to provide open lines of credit to Dealers, subject to the terms of the agreements with the Dealers as of the date of purchase. At September 30, 2006, open lines of credit to these Dealers were approximately $5,640,000. We intend to fund these commitments with available funds and available capacity under the $30.0 million LaSalle Credit Facility.

We believe that our existing cash, cash equivalents, LaSalle Credit Facility and RMR are adequate to fund our operations for at least the next twelve months.

New Accounting Pronouncements

In September 2006, the SEC staff issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 108, “Considering the Effects of Prior year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current year Financial Statements.” SAB 108 was issued in order to eliminate the diversity of practice surrounding how public companies quantify financial statement misstatements. The Company will be required to apply the guidance contained in SAB 108 beginning with financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2006. The Company believes that adopting SAB 108 will not have any effect on its financial statements.

In September, 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157 Fair Value Measurements. This statement defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This Statement applies under other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements. The Company will be required to adopt this Statement on January 1, 2007 and will apply the requirements prospectively to all transactions after the effective date. The Company has not yet determined the effect that adopting FAS No. 157 will have on its financial statements.

In July, 2006, the Securities and Exchange Commission adopted amendments to the disclosure requirement for executive and director compensation, related person transactions, director independence and other corporate governance matters and security ownership of officers and directors. These amendments apply to disclosure in proxy and information statements, periodic reports, current reports and other filings under the Securities Act of 1934 and to registration statements under the Exchange Act and the Securities Act of 1933. The amendments are intended to make proxy and information statements, reports and registration statement easier to understand and provide investors with a clearer and more complete picture of the compensation earned by a company’s principal executive officer, principal financial officer and highest paid executive officers and members of its board of directors. In addition, they are intended to provide better information about key financial relationships among companies and their executive officers, directors, significant shareholders and their respective immediate family members. The Company will be required to comply with these disclosure requirements in Forms 8-K for triggering events that occur on or after November 7, 2006 and in Forms 10-K for fiscal years ending on or after December 15, 2006. This disclosure requirement will have no impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In June 2006, the FASB issued FIN 48 which clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements in accordance with FASB Statement No. 109, Accounting for Income taxes. This Interpretation prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. This Interpretation also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. We will be required to adopt this Standard on January 1, 2007 and have not yet determined the effect that adopting FIN 48 will have on the financial statements.

In March 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 156, Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assets, an amendment of FASB Statement No. 140 (“FAS No. 156”). This Standard amends FASB Statement No. 140, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing Assets and Extinguishment of Liabilities, with respect to the accounting for separately recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities. This Standard requires an entity to recognize a servicing asset or servicing liability each time it undertakes an obligation to service a financial asset by entering into a servicing contract when there is a related sale of financial assets, certain transfers, or assumption of an obligation to service a financial asset that does not relate to the financial assets of the servicer.

We will be required to adopt this Statement on January 1, 2007 and will apply the requirements prospectively to all transactions after the effective date. We have not yet determined the effect that adopting FAS No. 156 will have our financial statements.

In February 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 155, Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial Instruments, an amendment of FASB statements No. 133 and 140 (“FAS No. 155”). This Standard resolves and clarifies the accounting and reporting for certain financial instruments including, hybrid financial instruments with embedded derivatives, interest-only strips, and securitized financial instruments. FAS No. 155 is effective for all financial instruments acquired or issued after the beginning of an entity’s first fiscal year that begins after September 15, 2006. We will be required to adopt this Standard on January 1, 2007 and have not yet determined the effect that adopting FAS No. 155 will have on the financial statements.

34

In May 2005, the FASB issued FAS No. 154, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections — a replacement of APB Opinion No. 20 and FAS Statement No. 3. This Standard requires retrospective application to prior periods’ financial statements of changes in accounting principle, unless it is impracticable to determine either the period-specific effects or the cumulative effect of the change. This Standard also requires that retrospective application of a change in accounting principle be limited to the direct effects of the change. Indirect effects of a change in accounting principle, such as a change in nondiscretionary profit-sharing payments resulting from an accounting change, should be recognized in the period of the accounting change. In addition, this Standard requires that a change in depreciation, amortization, or depletion method for long-lived, non-financial assets be accounted for as a change in accounting estimate affected by a change in accounting principle. We adopted the Standard on January 1, 2006 and it did not have any effect on our financial statements.

In November 2004, the FASB issued FAS No. 151, “Inventory costs, an amendment of ARB No. 43, Chapter 4.” This Standard requires that items such as idle facility expense and excess spoilage be recognized as current period charges. Under ARB No. 43, such costs were considered inventoriable costs unless they were considered so abnormal as to require immediate expensing. We adopted the Standard on January 1, 2006 and it did not have any effect on our financial statements.

Contractual Obligations and Commercial Commitments

The Company’s significant contractual obligations as of September 30, 2006 are for approximately $211,873,000. Debt by year of maturity and future rental payments under operating lease agreements are presented below. The Company has not engaged in off-balance sheet financing or commodity contract trading.

Contractual Obligations		Payments due by Period
		Total		less than 1 year		1-3 years		4-5 years		After 5 years
		(in thousands)
Long-term debt	$	125,000	$	-	$	-	$	-	$	125,000
Capital leases		685		263		391		31		-

* Consists primarily of annual interest payments of $15 million on $125 million of senior secured notes bearing interest at 12%. Interest rate premium of 1% in effect due to not registering the notes with the Securities and Exchange Commission is projected to continue for six months.

Attrition

Alarm-Monitoring Wholesale Services

End-user attrition has a direct impact on our results of operations since it affects our revenues, amortization expense and cash flow. We define attrition in the wholesale alarm monitoring business as the number of end-user accounts lost, expressed as a percentage, for a given period. In some instances, we use estimates to derive attrition data. We monitor end-user attrition each month, each quarter and each year. In periods of end-user account growth, end-user attrition may be understated and in periods of end-user account decline, end-user attrition may be overstated. Our actual attrition experience shows that the relationship period with any individual Dealer or end-user can vary significantly. Dealers discontinue service with us for a variety of reasons, including but not limited to, the sale of their alarm monitoring contracts, performance issues and receipt of lower pricing from competitors. End-users may discontinue service with the Dealer and therefore with us for a variety of reasons, including, but not limited to, relocation, service issues and cost. A portion of Dealer and end-user relationships, whether acquired or originated via our sales force, can be expected to discontinue service every year. Any significant change in the pattern of our historical attrition experience would have a material effect on our results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

35

For the quarters ended September 30, 2005 and 2006, our annualized end-user account growth rates in the wholesale monitoring segment, excluding acquisitions were (16.6%) and (5.6%), respectively. For the quarters September 30, 2005 and 2006, our annualized end-user attrition rates in the wholesale monitoring segment, calculated as end-user losses divided by the sum of beginning end-users, end- users added and end-users acquired, was 29.4% and 33.4%, respectively.  End-users acquired includes accounts purchased by the wholesale segment and customers acquired by the retail segment.  The number of end-users included in the total that are owned by us are 147,578, the remainders are third party owned.

Following is a summary of our end-user accounts:

	Period Ended September 30,
	Three Months						Nine Months
	2005			2006			2005		2006
		(in thousands)
Beginning balance		715,081			745,976			719,881		728,223
End-users added, excluding acquisitions		25,111			57,484			87,989		153,335
End-user losses		(54,834	)		(67,942	)		(137,626)		(149,192)
End-user acquired		6,860			10,959			21,974		14,111
Ending balance		692,218			746,477			692,218		746,477

Alarm-Monitoring Residential and Commercial Services (formerly reported combined as “retail services”)

The annualized attrition rates, based upon customer accounts cancelled or becoming significantly delinquent, during the periods presented are as follows:

	December 31, 2005			March 31, 2006		June 30, 2006		September 30, 2006		Annualized attrition for the four quarters ended September 30, 2006
Legacy and flow		18.30	%	12.12	%	11.83	%	16.33	%	13.87	%
Residential since IPO		17.54	%	12.07	%	11.91	%	20.99	%	14.75	%
Total Residential		17.74	%	12.08	%	11.88	%	19.58	%	14.48	%
Commercial since IPO		6.16	%	5.30	%	12.50	%	11.10	%	8.49	%
Total Retail		15.25	%	10.60	%	12.02	%	17.57	%	13.17	%

The attrition for a given period is calculated as the quotient of (i) the sum of (a) cancelled RMR plus (b) the increase (or minus the decrease) in "disqualified RMR" (i.e., RMR with related account receivable balances over 90 days from invoice date) minus (c) "replacement RMR" (i.e., cancelled or disqualified RMR that has been replaced by the selling Dealer with new RMR as required by the original sales contract with the Dealer); divided by (ii) average "qualified RMR" (i.e., RMR with no related account receivable balances over 90 days from invoice date).  When calculating annual attrition (rolling four quarter), account losses for the period are added to the average qualified RMR.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Our exposure to market risk is limited to interest income and expense sensitivity, which is affected by changes in the general level of interest rates. The primary objective of our investment activities is to preserve principal while at the same time maximizing the income we receive without significantly increasing risk. To minimize risk, we maintain our portfolio of cash, cash equivalents and short-term and restricted investments in a variety of interest-bearing instruments, including United States government and agency securities, high-grade United States corporate bonds, municipal bonds, mortgage-backed securities, commercial paper and money market accounts at established financial institutions. Due to the nature of our short-term and restricted investments, we believe that we are not subject to any material market risk exposure. We do not have any foreign currency risk. At September 30, 2006, we had no short-term investments and our cash and cash equivalents are invested in money market accounts. 

ITEM 4.  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this Form 10-Q, the Company’s management, with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934). Based on that evaluation, the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of the end of the period covered by this report.

This conclusion was based on the fact that the material weakness that existed at December 31, 2005 disclosed in our Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on March 16, 2006 was still present at September 30, 2006. The material weakness related to the Company not maintaining effective controls over accounts receivable, revenue, and deferred revenue accounts. In light of the material weakness, the Company performed additional post closing procedures to ensure its consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Accordingly, management believes that the financial statements presented in Item 1 of this Form 10-Q fairly present, in all material respects, the Company's financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.

36

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended September 30, 2006, except as noted in the following paragraph that have materially effected, or are reasonably likely to materially effect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Plan for Remediation of Material Weaknesses

Our plan to remediate the above material weakness remains unchanged from that which was disclosed in our Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 16, 2006. As of the date of this filing, the remediation initiatives management has implemented and will continue to implement include:

The Company completed the realigning of the billing and cancellation processes related to the retail revenue system to the retail accounting group as of the end of the first quarter 2006. The Company has completed the formal documentation of processing and review controls for these functions and has implemented, but not tested these controls as of the end of the third quarter 2006.

The Company has completed the reorganization of the customer service and collection groups during the first quarter of 2006.

The Company is developing a conversion plan for the remaining two revenue platforms over to the Corporate revenue system. The Company completed converting one of the remaining systems at the beginning of the fourth quarter 2006. The remaining two systems will be converted during 2007.

As the Company continues to take the steps to remediate the identified material weakness, in accordance with SEC and PCAOB guidance, management does not believe that it will fully be able to demonstrate that such material weakness has been remediated until the Company and its independent registered public accounting firm conduct their December 31, 2006 fiscal year-end assessment and audit of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting, respectively.

37

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

In March 2003, Protection One, a company engaged in the business of providing security and other alarm monitoring services to residential and commercial customers, brought an action against us in the Superior Court of New Jersey, Camden County for $1.4 million damages in connection with our purchase of certain alarm monitoring contracts from B&D Advertising Corp. B&D had previously sold alarm monitoring contracts to Protection One. As part of such sales, B&D agreed not to solicit any customers whose contracts had been purchased and to keep certain information confidential. Protection One claims that our subsequent purchase of contracts from B&D constitutes tortious interference, that we utilized confidential information belonging to Protection One and that Protection One had an interest in some of the contracts that we purchased from B&D. We plan to vigorously defend this claim. We believe the resolution of this matter will not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

In December of 2005, Ira R. Beer, former president of our American Home Security, Inc (“AHS”) subsidiary in Las Vegas, brought an action against AHS and us in District Court for Clark County, Nevada. Mr. Beer seeks monies allegedly due under a certain Employment Agreement dated November 21, 2003. Mr. Beer’s employment was terminated, for cause, on December 8, 2005. Mr. Beer’s lawsuit alleges that his termination was not for cause and that he is owed unpaid salary through the end of 2006 of some $440,000 and a certain “bonus buy-out” which he asserts to be approximately $2,192,000. He also seeks unspecified punitive damages. We have filed a counterclaim against Mr. Beer for derogation of his management duties. Based on the terms of the employment agreement and preliminary settlement negotiations, we have recorded a liability totaling $1.75 million for the settlement of this claim at September 30, 2006.

On June 26, 2006, our former president Thomas J. Few, Sr. initiated litigation against us in connection with his termination of employment, seeking a monetary award for amounts allegedly due to him under an employment agreement. The claim was filed in the Superior Court of New Jersey, in the Bergen County Law Division. The principal parties to the suit are Thomas J. Few, Sr. and us. Mr. Few alleges that he is owed up to 36 months of pay as well as an amount representing accrued but unused vacation as a result of his resignation following the our alleged breach of the employment agreement. Based upon preliminary settlement negotiations, we expect to settle this claim for a nominal amount.

We are involved in litigation and various legal matters that have arisen in the ordinary course of business. We do not believe that the outcome of these matters will have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows, although it is possible that an adverse resolution of a number of these matters could have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations, or cash flows in a particular quarter or fiscal year.
