The accompanying notes are an integral part of the consolidated financial statements. 5 INTEGRATED SECURITY SYSTEMS, INC. Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) Six Months Ended December 31, 2003 and 2002 Note 1 - Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (all of which are normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2004. The accompanying financial statements include the accounts of Integrated Security Systems, Inc. and both of its subsidiaries, B&B ARMR Corporation and Intelli-Site, Inc., with all intercompany accounts and transactions eliminated. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's fiscal 2003 Annual Report on Form 10-KSB filed on October 14, 2003 with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Note 2 - Reclassification Certain reclassifications of prior year amounts have been made to conform to the current period presentation. Note 3 - Accounts Receivable The majority of the Company's accounts receivable are due from companies in the perimeter security and road and bridge industries. Credit is extended based on evaluation of a customers' financial condition and credit history and, generally, collateral is not required. Accounts receivable are due within 30 days and are stated at amounts due from customers net of an allowance for doubtful accounts. Accounts outstanding longer than the contractual payment terms are considered past due. The Company determines its allowance by considering a number of factors, including the length of time trade accounts receivable are past due, the Company's previous loss history, the customer's current ability to pay its obligation to the Company, and the condition of the general economy and the industry as a whole. The Company writes-off accounts receivable when they become uncollectible, and payments subsequently received on such receivables are credited to the allowance for doubtful accounts. December 31, --------------------------- 2003 2002 ----------- ----------- Accounts receivable: Trade receivables $ 2,531,372 $ 956,992 Less: allowance for doubtful receivables (104,417) (65,641) ----------- ----------- $ 2,426,955 $ 891,351 =========== =========== Allowance for doubtful receivables: Beginning Balance $ 64,183 $ 100,692 Bad debt expense (credit) 15,500 (30,000) Accounts written-off (28,827) (5,051) ARMR Services Corporation merger 53,561 -- ----------- ----------- Ending Balance $ 104,417 $ 65,641 =========== =========== 6 Note 4 - Software Development Costs We account for software developments costs in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 86, "Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software to be Sold, Leased, or Otherwise Marketed." Accordingly, qualifying costs that are deemed to be recoverable are capitalized and amortized using the greater of the revenue method or the straight-line method over five years. At December 31, 2003 and June 30, 2003, software development costs had not been capitalized because of uncertainty regarding their recoverability. Capitalized software development costs of $224,900 at December 31, 2002 were expensed during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2003 due to the unrecoverability and resulting impairment of these costs. Note 5 - Product Warranties The Company offers one-year, two-year and five-year warranties on products it manufactures. The length of the warranty is dictated by competition. The Company provides for repair or replacement of components and/or products that contain defects of material or workmanship. When the Company uses other manufacturers' components, the warranties of the other manufacturers are passed to the dealers and end users. The Company records a liability for an estimate of costs that it expects to incur under its basic limited warranty when product revenue is recognized. Factors affecting the Company's warranty liability include the number of units sold and historical and anticipated rates of claims and costs per claim. The Company periodically assesses the adequacy of its warranty liability based on changes in these factors. The changes in the Company's product warranty liability are as follows: December 31, ----------------------- 2003 2002 --------- --------- Liability, beginning of year $ 135,471 $ 97,095 Expense for new warranties issued 30,000 39,000 Warranty Claims (55,853) (74,872) --------- --------- Liability, end of period $ 109,618 $ 61,223 ========= ========= 7 Note 6 - Stock Options The Company accounts for stock-based compensation to employees using the intrinsic value method. Accordingly, compensation cost for stock options granted to employees is measured as the excess, if any, of the quoted market price of the Company's common stock at the date of the grant over the amount an employee must pay to acquire the stock. If the Company recognized compensation expense as recommended under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 ("SFAS 123"), based on the fair value at the grant dates, the Company's pro forma net loss and net loss per share would have been as follows:

The fair value of these options was estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Sholes option pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions used for grants in fiscal 2004 and 2003, respectively: no dividend yield, expected lives of three and five years with expected volatility and risk-free interest rates as outlined in the following table:

8 Note 7 - Preferred Stock Conversion During the first quarter of fiscal 2004, all of the holders of the Company's Series F and Series G Preferred Stock converted all of these shares at a rate of 125 shares of Common Stock for each share of the Preferred Stock and all of the related accrued dividends at a rate of $0.20 into the Company's $0.01 par value common stock. These conversions are detailed in the following tables. Convertible Preferred Stock -------------------------------------------------------------------- Preferred Stock Number of Number of Series Preferred Shares Common Shares ------------------- -------------------- ----------------- Series F 60,595 7,574,375 Series G 299,802 37,475,250 Convertible Preferred Stock Accrued Dividends -------------------------------------------------------------------- Preferred Stock Amount of Number of Series Accrued Dividends Common Shares ------------------- -------------------- ----------------- Series F $175,350 876,750 Series G 868,480 4,342,400 Note 8 - Preferred Stock Dividend Arrearage At December 31, 2003, the Company had dividends in arrears in the amount of $265,913 related to its outstanding Series A and D preferred stock, which consists of the following: ---------------------------- Shares Dividends Outstanding In Arrears ----------- ----------- Series A $20 9,500 $ -- Series D $20 91,250 265,913 ----------- ----------- 100,750 $ 265,913 =========== =========== Note 9 - Acquisition of Assets On September 5, 2003, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of ARMR Services Corporation ("ARMR"), a manufacturing company that engineers and manufactures high security crash rated barriers, parking control equipment and other security systems for business and government use, in a merger transaction. In exchange for all the outstanding shares of ARMR, the Company paid the selling stockholders approximately $3.8 million in common stock (10 million shares) of the Company and $500,000 in cash, which had been obtained through the issuance of a $500,000 convertible promissory note in September 2003. In addition, the Company and the sellers executed an earn-out agreement for maximum additional payments of approximately $2.2 million based on sales over the next three years. Any additional consideration will increase the recorded goodwill. The Company entered into this merger transaction seeing it as an opportunistic acquisition that would allow it to expand its product offering and customer base in conjunction with the Company's strategic growth plans. The acquisition and merger of ARMR was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting. As such, the assets and liabilities of ARMR were recorded at their estimated fair value and the results of operations have been included in the Company's consolidated results of operations from the date of acquisition. The purchase price in excess of the book value of the net assets acquired has been allocated to goodwill. The Company is in the process of allocating the purchase price to the assets acquired. Any adjustment resulting from this allocation will reduce the amount of goodwill and any required amortization will be recorded. It is expected this allocation will be completed by the end of fiscal 2004. The table below summarizes the current allocation of the purchase price based on the estimated fair values of the assets acquired: 9 Estimated Values ---------------- Cash and cash equivalents $ 29,000 Accounts receivable 1,088,000 Inventory 348,000 Property and equipment 116,000 Other assets 19,000 Accounts payable (940,000) Accrued liabilities (400,000) Current debt (337,000) Long-term debt (63,000) Goodwill 4,440,000 ---------------- Purchase price $ 4,300,000 ================ The following unaudited pro forma consolidated statements of operations have been prepared as if the acquisition discussed above had occurred at the beginning of each period presented.

Note 10 - Net Loss Per Share The Company computes basic loss per common share using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. At December 31, 2003 and 2002, 26,998,622 and 63,996,275 potentially dilutive common shares outstanding were not included in the computation of diluted loss per share because their effect is antidilutive due to the net loss for the period. At January 31, 2004, the Company had approximately 100,903,941 shares of common and common stock equivalents outstanding, which is in excess of the authorized shares of 75,000,000. The Company will be seeking shareholder approval for an increase in the number of authorized shares, in order to accommodate for this excess, at the next annual shareholders' meeting. Note 11 - Financing In exchange for an aggregate of $400,000 cash investment, the Company issued a promissory note to each of Frost National Bank FBO Renaissance Capital Growth & Income Fund III, Inc. and Frost National Bank FBO Renaissance US Growth Investment Trust PLC on October 1, 2003. Each of the two promissory notes is in the original principal amount of $200,000 and has an annual interest rate of 7%. The promissory notes, plus interest, are due on April 1, 2004. Interest is payable in monthly installments on the first day of each month. As a part of this transaction, on October 1, 2003, the Company issued a stock purchase warrant to each of Frost National Bank FBO Renaissance Capital Growth & Income Fund III, Inc. and Frost National Bank FBO Renaissance US Growth Investment Trust PLC. Each of the two stock purchase warrants entitles the Renaissance entities to purchase from the Company 250,000 fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock, $0.01 par value, of the Company for $0.40 per share.The value assigned to these warrants of $145,450 is being amortized as additional interest expense over the terms of the notes. 10 Note 12 - Business Segments Information for the Company's reportable segments at December 31, 2003 and June 30, 2003 is as follows: December 31, June 30, 2003 2003 ------------ ------------ Assets B&B ARMR Corporation $ 8,620,033 $ 1,720,137 Intelli-Site, Inc. 75,434 51,754 Corporate 38,936 148,209 ------------ ------------ $ 8,734,403 $ 1,920,100 ============ ============ Information for the Company's reportable segments for the three and six months ended December 31, 2003 and 2002 is as follows:

Results of Operations Three Months Ended December 31, 2003 Compared to Three Months Ended December 31, 2002 Sales. The Company's total sales increased by $1.8 million, or 121%, to $3.4 million during the quarter ended December 31, 2003 from $1.5 million during the quarter ended December 31, 2002. This increase is due to the inclusion of the sales of ARMR Services Corporation, as a result of the merger of ARMR with the Company's B&B Electromatic, Inc. subsidiary into B&B ARMR Corporation on September 5, 2003. Gross Margin. Gross margin increased by $0.6 million, or 120%, to $1.1 million during the quarter ending December 31, 2003 from $0.5 million during the quarter ending December 31, 2002. This increase is due to inclusion of ARMR Services Corporation as a result of the merger of B&B Electromatic, Inc. and ARMR Services Corporation. Gross margin as a percentage of sales remained comparable for the three months ended December 31, 2003 and 2002. Selling, General and Administrative. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by approximately $477,000 or 89% during the quarter ended December 31, 2003 compared to the quarter ended December 31, 2002. This increase is primarily due to the inclusion of ARMR Services Corporation as a result of the merger of B&B Electromatic, Inc. and ARMR Services Corporation. 12 Research and Product Development. Research and product development expenses increased by approximately $127,000 during the quarter ended December 31, 2003 compared to the quarter ended December 31, 2002. This increase is primarily due to approximately $87,000 in software development costs in the current quarter compared to the capitalization of approximately $96,000 in software development costs at the Company's Intelli-Site, Inc. subsidiary during the same quarter a year ago. Research and development expenditures increased approximately $40,000 related to the Company's B&B ARMR subsidiary. Interest Expense. Interest expense increased by approximately $337,000 during the quarter ended December 31, 2003 compared to the quarter ended December 31, 2002 due to the amortization of the value of warrants issued in conjunction with securing additional debt and the interest on debt that was obtained to meet working capital needs coupled with additional debt financing subsequent to the quarter ending December 31, 2002. Six Months Ended December 31, 2003 Compared to Six months Ended December 31, 2002 Sales. The Company's total sales increased by $2.2 million, or 73%, to $5.1 million during the six months ended December 31, 2003 from $2.9 million during the six months ended December 31, 2002. This increase is due to the inclusion of the sales of ARMR Services Corporation, as a result of the merger of ARMR with the Company's B&B Electromatic, Inc. subsidiary into B&B ARMR Corporation on September 5, 2003. Gross Margin. Gross margin increased by $0.7 million, or 62%, to $1.8 million during the six months ending December 31, 2003 from $1.1 million during the six months ending December 31, 2002.

The cash that the Company receives from the accounts receivable factoring facilities is utilized to support Company-wide operations. The Company's working capital requirements will depend upon many factors, including future sales of the Company's products, the Company's operating results, the status of competitive products, and actual profits compared to the Company's business plan. The Company is currently experiencing declining liquidity, which makes it difficult for the Company to meet its current cash requirements and may jeopardize the Company's ability to continue as a going concern and the Company's auditor issued a going concern modification in their auditors' report for our year ended June 30, 2003. The Company intends to address its liquidity problems by controlling costs, seeking additional funding and maintaining focus on revenues and collections. At the present time and in the foreseeable future, the Company will need to obtain additional financing either through equity placement or additional debt. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to secure such financing. If the Company's liquidity does not improve, it may have to seek a merger partner, limit its operations or seek protection under the federal bankruptcy laws. Any of the foregoing options may be on terms that are unfavorable to the Company or disadvantageous to the Company's stockholders. The Company's backlog is calculated as the aggregate sales prices of firm orders received from customers less revenue recognized. At January 31, 2004, the Company's backlog was approximately $6.5 million. The Company expects that it will fill the majority of this backlog by March 31, 2005. 14 Item 3.
