Estimates – The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
|
Revenue Recognition – The Company charges fees to its customers in one of two ways as follows:
|
●
|
Compensation costs related to the issuance of stock options
|
●
|
Use of the reserve method of accounting for bad debts
|
●
|
Differences in basis of property and equipment between financial and income tax reporting
|

On, November 30, 2009, Anchor entered into a $7 million senior Accounts Receivable (A/R) Credit Facility with a maximum amount of up to $9 million with lender approval. This funding facility is based upon Anchor's submission and approval of eligible accounts receivable. This facility replaced Anchor’s revolving credit facility from another financial institution. Anchor pays .5% for the first 30 days of the face value for each invoice funded and .016% for each day thereafter until collected. In addition, interest on advances is paid monthly at the Prime Rate plus 2.0%. Anchor pays the financial institution various other monthly fees as defined in the agreement. The agreement requires that Anchor use $1,000,000 of its own funds first to finance its clients. The agreement contains customary representations and warranties, events of default and limitations, among other provisions. The agreement is collateralized by a first lien on all Anchors’ assets. Borrowings on this agreement are partially guaranteed by the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer. The partial guarantee is $250,000 each. On February 10, 2011, Anchor’s agreement with this financial institution was amended such that beginning February 10, 2011 Anchor would no longer pay discount fees and Anchor would pay interest on advances at the Prime Rate plus 8.0% through November 30, 2011 and at the Prime Rate plus 9.0% thereafter. Anchor owed this financial institution $3,845,904 as of September 30, 2011 and $5,607,572 as of December 31, 2010.
|
The agreement automatically renews each year provided that the Company has not provided 60 days notice to the financial institution in advance of the anniversary date.
On September 22, 2011, Anchor gave notice to the financial institution that it was electing not to renew the facility when it expires at the end of its current term on November 30, 2011. On November 8, 2011, Anchor entered into a Rediscount Credit Facility with a Commercial Bank that is effective November 30, 2011 and replaces its existing credit facility. The maximum amount that can be borrowed under the facility is $10 million and the Bank will advance up to 80% of up to 90% of Anchor’s advances to its clients. Anchor will pay interest on advances monthly at the 90 Day Libor Rate plus 6.25%. Anchor will pay the Bank various other monthly fees as defined in the agreement. The agreement requires that Anchor maintain at all times a ratio of debt to tangible net worth of four to one (4:1). The agreement contains customary representations and warranties, events of default and limitations, among other provisions. The agreement is collateralized by a first lien on all Anchors’ assets.

|
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
|
Principles of Consolidation - The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Anchor Funding Services, Inc. and, its wholly owned subsidiary, Anchor Funding Services, LLC (continuing operations). Anchor’s former 80% interest in Brookridge Funding Services, LLC is reflected in the consolidated statements of operations and the consolidated statements of cash flows as discontinued operations for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2011.
|
Estimates – The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
|
Revenue Recognition – The Company charges fees to its customers in one of two ways as follows:
|
●
|
Compensation costs related to the issuance of stock options
|
●
|
Use of the reserve method of accounting for bad debts
|
●
|
Differences in basis of property and equipment between financial and income tax reporting
|
●
|
Net operating loss carryforwards.

Sep. 30, 2011 | ||||||||||||
Accounting Policies [Abstract] | ||||||||||||
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES | 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
1) Fixed Transaction Fee. Fixed transaction fees are a fixed percentage of the purchased invoice and purchase order advance. This percentage does not change from the date the purchased invoice is funded until the date the purchased invoice is collected.
2) Variable Transaction Fee. Variable transaction fees are variable based on the length of time the purchased invoice and purchase order advance is outstanding. As specified in its contract with the client, the Company charges variable increasing percentages of the purchased invoice or purchase order advance as time elapses from the purchase date to the collection date.
For both fixed and variable transaction fees, the Company recognizes revenue by using one of two methods depending on the type of customer. For new customers the Company recognizes revenue using the cost recovery method. For established customers the Company recognizes revenue using the accrual method.
Under the cost recovery method, all revenue is recognized upon collection of the entire amount of purchased accounts receivable.
The Company considers new customers to be accounts whose initial funding has been within the last three months or less. Management believes it needs three months of history to reasonably estimate a customer’s collection period and accrued revenues. If three months of history has a limited number of transactions, the cost recovery method will continue to be used until a reasonable revenue estimate can be made based on additional history. Once the Company obtains sufficient historical experience, it will begin using the accrual method to recognize revenue.
For established customers the Company uses the accrual method of accounting. The Company applies this method by multiplying the historical yield, for each customer, times the amount advanced on each purchased invoice outstanding for that customer, times the portion of a year that the advance is outstanding. The customers’ historical yield is based on the Company’s last six months of experience with the customer along with the Company’s experience in the customer’s industry, if applicable.
The amounts recorded as revenue under the accrual method described above are estimates. As purchased invoices and purchase order advances are collected, the Company records the appropriate adjustments to record the actual revenue earned on each purchased invoice and purchase order advance. Adjustments from the estimated revenue to the actual revenue have not been material.
Retained Interest in Purchased Accounts Receivable – Retained interest in purchased accounts receivable represents the gross amount of invoices purchased and advances on purchase orders from clients less amounts maintained in a reserve account. For factoring transactions, the Company purchases a customer’s accounts receivable and advances them a percentage of the invoice total. The difference between the purchase price and amount advanced is maintained in a reserve account. The reserve account is used to offset any potential losses the Company may have related to the purchased accounts receivable. For purchase order transactions, the company advances and pays for up to 100% of the product’s cost.
The Company’s factoring and security agreements with their customers include various recourse provisions requiring the customers to repurchase accounts receivable if certain conditions, as defined in the factoring and security agreement, are met.
Senior management reviews the status of uncollected purchased accounts receivable and purchase order advances monthly to determine if any are uncollectible. The Company has a security interest in the accounts receivable and inventory purchased and, on a case-by-case basis, may have additional collateral. The Company files security interests in the property securing their advances. Access to this collateral is dependent upon the laws and regulations in each state where the security interest is filed. Additionally, the Company has various types of personal guarantees from their customers relating to the purchased accounts receivable and purchase order advances.
Management considered approximately $76,200 of their September 30, 2011 and $80,500 of their December 31, 2010 retained interest in purchased accounts receivable to be uncollectible.
Management believes the fair value of the retained interest in purchased accounts receivable approximates its recorded value because of the relatively short term nature of the purchased receivable and the fact that the majority of these invoices have been subsequently collected. As of September 30, 2011, accounts receivable purchased over 90 days old and still accruing fees totaled approximately $211,800.
Property and Equipment – Property and equipment, consisting of furniture and fixtures and computers and software, are stated at cost. Depreciation is provided over the estimated useful lives of the depreciable assets using the straight-line method. Estimated useful lives range from 2 to 7 years.
Advertising Costs – The Company charges advertising costs to expense as incurred. Total advertising costs were approximately $65,000 and $52,000 for the quarters ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and $179,200 and $194,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and September 30, 2010, respectively.
Earnings per Share – Basic net income per share is computed by dividing the net income for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Dilutive earnings per share include the potential impact of dilutive securities, such as convertible preferred stock, stock options and stock warrants. The dilutive effect of stock options and warrants is computed using the treasury stock method, which assumes the repurchase of common shares at the average market price.
Under the treasury stock method, options and warrants will have a dilutive effect when the average price of common stock during the period exceeds the exercise price of options or warrants.
When there is a year-to-date loss from continuing operations, potential common shares should not be included in the computation of diluted earnings per share, since they would have an anti-dilutive effect.
Stock Based Compensation - The fair value of transactions in which the Company exchanges its equity instruments for employee services (share-based payment transactions) must be recognized as an expense in the financial statements as services are performed.
Compensation expense is determined by reference to the fair value of an award on the date of grant and is amortized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period. We have elected to use the Black-Scholes-Merton (BSM) pricing model to determine the fair value of all stock option awards.
See Note 8 for the impact on operating results for the three month and nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments – The carrying value of cash equivalents, retained interest in purchased accounts receivable, due to financial institution, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximates their fair value.
Cash and Cash Equivalents – Cash and cash equivalents consist primarily of highly liquid cash investment funds with original maturities of three months or less when acquired.
Income Taxes – The Company is a “C” corporation for income tax purposes. In a “C” corporation income taxes are provided for the tax effects of transactions reported in the financial statements plus deferred income taxes related to the differences between financial statement and taxable income.
The primary differences between financial statement and taxable income for the Company are as follows:
The deferred tax asset represents the future tax return consequences of utilizing these items. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation reserve, when management is uncertain if the net deferred tax assets will ever be realized.
In July 2006, FASB issued guidance which clarifies the accounting for uncertain tax positions. This guidance requires that the Company recognize in its consolidated financial statements, the impact of a tax position, if that position is more likely than not of being sustained on audit, based on the technical merits of the position.
The Company applied this guidance to all its tax positions, including tax positions taken and those expected to be taken, under the transition provision of the interpretation.
For the quarters and nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, the Company recognized no liability for uncertain tax positions.
The Company classifies interest accrued on unrecognized tax benefits with interest expense. Penalties accrued on unrecognized tax benefits are classified with operating expenses.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements –
In July 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-20, “Disclosure about the Credit Quality of Financing Receivables and the Allowance for Credit Losses” which was effective upon issuance. ASU 2010-20 amends Topic 310 to improve the disclosures that an entity provides about the credit quality of its financing receivables and the related allowance for credit losses. As a result of these amendments, an entity is required to disaggregate by portfolio segment or class certain existing disclosures and provide new disclosures about its financing receivables and related allowance for credit losses. These provisions are effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending on or after December 15, 2010. In January 2011, ASU 2011-06, “Receivables (Topic 310): Deferral of the Effective Date of Disclosures about Troubled Debt Restructurings in Update No. 2010-20” is issued to temporarily delay the effective date of the disclosures about troubled debt restructurings for public entities. The delay is intended to allow the FASB time to complete its deliberations on what constitutes a troubled debt restructuring. Accordingly, ASU 2010-20 is changed to be effective for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2011. We assessed that ASU 2010-20 concerns disclosures only and will not have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.
In August 2010, the FASB issued ASU
2010-22, “Accounting for Various Topics—Technical Corrections to SEC Paragraphs”. ASU 2010-22 amends various SEC paragraphs based on external comments received and the issuance of SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) No. 112, which amends or rescinds portions of certain SAB topics. The topics affected include reporting of inventories in financial statements for Form 10-Q, debt issue costs in conjunction with a business combination, sales of stock by subsidiary, gain recognition on sales of business, business combinations prior to an initial public offering, loss contingent and liability assumed in business combination, divestitures, and oil and gas exchange offers. We are currently evaluating the effect of ASU 2010-22 on our financial statements and believe it would not have a material impact on our results of operations.
In September 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-20, Disclosures about the Credit Quality of Financing Receivables and the Allowance for Credit Losses, to enhance the disclosures required for financing receivables (for example, loans, trade accounts receivable, notes receivable, and receivables relating to a lessor’s leveraged, direct financing, and sales-type leases) and allowances for credit losses. The amended disclosures are designed to provide more information to financial statement users regarding the credit quality of a creditor’s financing receivables and the adequacy of its allowance for credit losses. We adopted all of the requirements of the amended guidance on December 31, 2010, its effective date, except for the disclosures regarding the activity during a reporting period which became effective January 1, 2011. Adoption of the pronouncement has not had, and is not expected to have, a significant effect on our consolidated financial statement disclosures.
In April 2011, Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, issued Accounting Standards Update 2011-02 – A Creditor’s Determination of Whether a Restructuring is a Troubled Debt Restructuring, or ASU 2011-02. This standard amends previous guidance provided in Accounting Standards Codification 310-40-Receivables-Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors. ASU 2011-02 provides additional guidance and criteria on how companies should determine whether a restructuring or refinancing of an existing financial receivable represents a troubled debt restructuring. Companies must assess whether the restructuring or refinancing of an existing financial receivable is a troubled debt restructuring in order to determine how to account for the remaining unamortized portion of certain fees, such as origination fees, associated with the original debt investment. ASU-2011-02 is effective for the first interim period beginning on or after June 15, 2011. We adopted this standard beginning with the quarter ended September 30, 2011. Our adoption of this update did not have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations. |

Contingencies
We are not a party to any pending material legal proceedings except as described below. To our knowledge, no governmental authority is contemplating a legal proceeding in which we would be named as a party.
In April 2010, Brookridge incurred a credit loss of approximately $650,000 due to what appears to be a fraud committed by a Brookridge client (hereinafter referred to as a "Sherburne Account" client). Anchor’s interest in this loss is 80% or approximately $520,000 and was included in discontinued operations for the year ended December 31, 2010. Brookridge financed inventory purchased by this client who sold the inventory for the benefit of another company not funded by Brookridge resulting in the loss of Brookridge’s collateral rights in the inventory. As a result, Brookridge recorded a charge of $650,000 for credit losses in April, 2010. As of May 12, 2011, the Company has recouped a total of $177,000 of the $650,000 credit loss. Anchor is currently pursuing all collection remedies and on October 22, 2010 filed a complaint in the Superior Court of Stamford/Norwalk, Connecticut against the Administrators of the Estate of David Harvey (“Harvey”). Harvey was the owner of Sherburne and the Company is pursuing its rights under the personal guarantee that Harvey provided. The complaint is demanding principal of approximately $485,000 plus interest and damages. |

RELATED PARTY TRANSACTION | 7. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTION:
On December 7, 2009, Brookridge Funding Services, LLC, the Company’s 80% owned subsidiary, acquired certain assets and accounts of Brookridge Funding, LLC. In connection with the closing, Brookridge entered into a credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with MGM Funding, LLC (“MGM”), a limited liability company owned and controlled by the Company’s Co-Chairmen, Morry F. Rubin and George Rubin, and an investor (“Lender”), pursuant to which Lender provided a $3.7 million senior credit facility to Brookridge. Morry F. Rubin is the managing member of MGM. Loans under the Credit Agreement were secured by all of Brookridge’s assets and were charged interest at a 20% annual rate. The Credit Agreement contained standard representations, covenants and events of default for facilities of this type. Occurrence of an event of default allowed the Lender to accelerate the payment of the loans and/or terminate the commitments to lend, in addition to other legal remedies, including foreclosing on collateral. On October 6, 2010, in connection with Anchor’s rescission of its purchase of certain assets of Brookridge Funding, MGM terminated the Credit Agreement. See Note 14 “Acquisition and Discontinued Operations.”
Also in connection with closing, the company received gross proceeds of $500,002 from the sale of 500,002 shares of common stock and ten year warrants to purchase 2,000,004 shares of common stock exercisable at $1.00 per share (the "Equity Investment"). The Equity Investment was purchased one-third by Morry F. Rubin, one-third by George Rubin and one-third by a principal stockholder, each of whom are owners of the Lender.
Michael P. Hilton and John A. McNiff III, co-presidents of Brookridge, each purchased a ten percent interest in Brookridge at a cost of $150,000 and each agreed to guarantee repayment of the Lender's Credit Facility up to an amount equal to $300,000. At Closing, the company entered into employment agreements with Hilton and McNiff and granted each ten year options to purchase 112,500 shares of our common stock at an exercisable price of $1.00 per share. On October 6, 2010, in connection with Anchor’s rescission of its purchase of certain assets of Brookridge Funding, the employment agreements with Hilton and McNiff and their options were terminated. See Note 14 “Acquisition and Discontinued Operations.”
On March 23, 2010, upon approval of the Board of Directors (the “Board”) Anchor entered into a Promissory Note for up to $2 million from MGM Funding, LLC. Morry F. Rubin is the managing member of MGM. The money to be borrowed under the note was subordinate to Anchor’s accounts receivable credit facility. The Promissory Note was to assist Anchor in funding up to 50% of the funds employed for a specific client that Anchor’s senior lender will only fund up to 50% of the funds employed. The senior lender’s limitation is based on the size of the client’s credit facility. The MGM Promissory Note is a demand note. In addition, when Anchor typically has significant invoice purchase requests from clients, MGM periodically makes short-term loans to Anchor Funding Services, Inc. which then advances the funds to Anchor Funding Services, LLC. Anchor does not receive same day availability of funds from its senior lender for its daily client invoice purchases requiring it to use its own capital and MGM to meet client demand. These loans were payable on demand and accrued interest at 20% per annum. This note was subsequently replaced by the Promissory Note described below.
On April 26, 2011, upon approval of the Board, Anchor entered into a Promissory Note for up to $2 million from MGM. The money to be borrowed under the note is subordinate to Anchor’s accounts receivable credit facility with a senior lender, which requires funds employed to be no less than $5,000,000 before Anchor may borrow funds from MGM. The Promissory Note is to assist Anchor in providing factoring and purchase order funding facilities to some of its clients and it replaces an earlier agreement between the parties, described above. This facility will supplement Anchor's $7 Million (which is expandable to $9 Million) credit line with a senior lender. The MGM Promissory Note is a demand note payable together with interest at the rate of 11% per annum. If mutually agreed upon in writing by Anchor and MGM, and Anchor's purchase order fundings exceed $1 Million, then interest may accrue on the portion of the unpaid balance of this Note that is funding purchase order advances that are in excess of $1 Million at a rate equal to twenty percent (20.0%) per annum. Anchor owed $0 and $290,000 to MGM as of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. Anchor paid $0 and $67,971 of interest to MGM for the three months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and $16,669 and $120,192 of interest for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. |

The agreement requires that Anchor maintain at all times a ratio of debt to tangible net worth of four to one (4:1). The agreement contains customary representations and warranties, events of default and limitations, among other provisions. The agreement is collateralized by a first lien on all Anchors’ assets.

ACQUSITION AND DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS | 14. ACQUSITION AND DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS:
On December 4, 2009, the Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Asset Purchase Agreement”) with Brookridge Funding, LLC (the “Seller”) providing for the acquisition of certain assets and accounts of Seller’s purchase order finance business (the “Acquired Business”). The closing of the acquisition took place on December 7, 2009. In connection with the transaction, the Company and Seller’s principals invested $1.5 million in Brookridge which operated the Acquired Business. The purchase price for the Acquired Business was $2,389,824 representing the fair market value of the Acquired Business’s purchased accounts receivable and purchase order advances.
Since the purchase price equaled the fair market value of the net assets acquired, no Goodwill was recorded for the initial transaction.
For five years, the Seller was to receive 20% of Brookridge’s net operating income, paid quarterly, up to a total of $800,000. Based on discounted cash flow and net present value analyses, the Company recorded $480,000 of Goodwill and Intangibles and a corresponding liability in connection with contingent payments due to the Seller.
On October 6, 2010, Anchor Funding Services, Inc. entered into a Rescission Agreement with the Minority Members, namely, John A. McNiff, III and Michael P. Hilton (collectively the "Buyers") of Brookridge Funding Services, LLC ("Brookridge"). Our Brookridge operations have been reclassified as discontinued operations in Consolidated Financial Statements for three months and nine months ended September 30, 2011. The following is a summary of the operating results of our discontinued operations:
Under the terms of the Agreement, the Buyers of Brookridge purchased Anchor's interest in Brookridge at book value of approximately $783,000.
At closing, the Company delivered an Assignment of its Membership Interests of Brookridge to the Buyers. The Company executed a Confidentiality Agreement agreeing to keep confidential and not to use certain information concerning Brookridge. The Buyers executed the Confidentiality Agreement agreeing to keep confidential certain information concerning the Company and the parties executed a Mutual Release Agreement. The Termination Agreement provides that the Company during a Restricted Period of two years may not directly or indirectly call upon, contact, solicit, divulge, encourage or appropriate or attempt to call upon, contact, solicit, diverge, encourage or approach any customer or interfere with the business relationship between customer and Brookridge. The Company is not prohibited from competing with Brookridge or engaging in the business conducted by Brookridge.
Separately from the Rescission Agreement, Brookridge and MGM Funding LLC, a company controlled by our Chief Executive Officer and a director, Morry F. Rubin, by our director, George Rubin, and by a principal stockholder of the Company, agreed to terminate their Credit Agreement. At closing, no monies were owed by Brookridge to MGM.
Effective as of immediately prior to the Closing and in consideration for the sale of the Purchased Interest, Buyers and Brookridge agree to assign their rights and interest in the following assets to the Company:
The Agreement provides that the Company shall control
collection and recovery efforts under the Sherburne Account and shall keep Buyers reasonably informed concerning substantive developments pertaining thereto. The Buyers and the Company in connection with such collection and recovery efforts shall share all out-of-pocket costs and expenses, as well as all collections, in the proportion of eighty percent (80%) by the Company and ten percent (10%) by each Buyer. The Company shall pay to Buyers their share of any collections promptly after receipt of same and shall, from time to time, provide each Buyer with copies of any and all invoices related to the shared costs and expenses, proof of payment therefor and invoice for such expenses as they are incurred, which such invoices shall be payable by each Buyer within twenty (20) days after delivery. In the event Buyers shall fail to make any payment due in accordance with the foregoing within ten (10) days after receiving notice concerning a failure to pay any such invoice, they shall forfeit any and all rights to share in collections. |
