Information Analysis Incorporated (“IAI”, or the “Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia in 1979 to develop and market computer applications software systems, programming services, and related software products and automation systems.  The Company provides services to customers throughout the United States, with a concentration in the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area.

 

The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions for Form 10-Q and Article 8-03 of Regulation S-X.  Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities Exchange Commission.  In the opinion of management, the unaudited financial statements include all adjustments necessary (which are of a normal and recurring nature) for the fair and not misleading presentation of the results of the interim periods presented.  These unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2012 included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 29, 2013 (the “Annual Report”).  The accompanying December 31, 2012 financial information was derived from our audited financial statements included in the Annual Report.  The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for any other interim period or for a full fiscal year.

 

The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and amounts included in other current assets and current liabilities that meet the definition of a financial instrument approximate fair value because of the short-term nature of these amounts.  The carrying amount of notes receivable approximate fair value based on interest rates currently available.

 

Company sales to departments or agencies of the U.S. federal government are subject to audit by the Defense Contract Audit Agency (“DCAA”), which could result in the renegotiation of amounts previously billed.  Because the Company has not entered into any cost plus fixed fee contracts since 1997, management believes there is minimal risk of an audit by DCAA resulting in a material misstatement of previously reported financial statements.

 

Certain prior period balances have been reclassified to conform to the presentation of the current period.
