Going Concern Note	Note 2 – Going Concern A fundamental principle of the preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America is the assumption that an entity will continue in existence as a going concern, which contemplates continuity of operations and the realization of assets and settlement of liabilities occurring in the ordinary course of business. This principle is applicable to all entities except for entities in liquidation or entities for which liquidation appears imminent. In accordance with this requirement, the Company has prepared its condensed consolidated financial statements on a going concern basis. The Company has incurred significant recurring losses from continuing operations and has a significant working capital deficiency. The Company incurred a net loss from continuing operations of $3.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and has a working capital deficiency of $18.8 million as of June 30, 2011. As further discussed in Note 6 – Long-Term Debt, the Company has not remitted the December 1, 2009 and 2010 required sinking fund payments of $105,700 each and has not remitted the June 1, 2010 and 2011 and December 1, 2010 interest payments of $50,200 each on its 9½% Subordinated debentures due 2012 (the “Debentures”). In addition, the Company has not remitted the March 1, 2010 and 2011 and September 1, 2010 interest payments of $417,800 each on its 8¼% Limited convertible senior subordinated notes due 2012 (the “Notes”). Under the terms of the Indenture that govern the Debentures and the Notes, the non-payments constitute events of default; accordingly, the trustees or the holders of 25% of the outstanding Debentures and Notes have the right to declare the outstanding principal and interest due and payable immediately. In the event that the Company receives such notice, the senior lender under the Company’s bank credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) has the right to demand payment on outstanding amounts under the Credit Agreement. The outstanding Debentures, Notes and Credit Agreement debt are classified as Current portion of long-term debt in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. In May 2011, the senior lender extended the maturity date of the Credit Agreement to November 1, 2011, removed the senior debt coverage ratio covenant for the March 31, 2011 and June 30, 2011 periods and waived the December 31, 2010 non-compliance of the senior debt coverage ratio. The senior lender has retained the right to call the Credit Agreement in the event that the holders of the Debentures or the Notes demand payment. In 2010, the senior lender modified the monthly principal payments, modified the maturity of the Credit Agreement and reduced the availability under the revolving loan from $5.0 million to $4.3 million. In June 2011, the Company entered into a subscription agreement for a private placement consisting of $650,000 of 4.00% secured notes of the Company pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Rule 506 promulgated thereunder. In connection with the purchase of these notes, the subscriber received a five-year warrant (the “Warrant”) to purchase 1,000,000 shares of Common Stock of the Company at an exercise price of $1.00, subject to adjustment as provided in the Warrant. The financing is collateralized by the land held for sale located in Silver City, New Mexico. The Company also refinanced its mortgage on its Des Moines, Iowa facility in March 2010, which provided an additional $260,000 for working capital. The Company continues to be involved in discussions with various entities to obtain additional debt and/or equity financing including amounts that could be used to settle the Debentures and the Notes, however there can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in obtaining such financing and, even if it obtains such financing, how the terms of such financing will affect the Company. The Company’s Board of Directors recently approved a proposed comprehensive restructuring package which includes an offer to the holders of the (i) Notes - $225 plus 250 shares of the Company’s Common Stock for each $1,000 Note offered and (ii) Debentures - $100 for each $1,000 Debenture offered. The Debentures are subordinate to the claims of the holders of the Notes and the Company’s senior lender under the Credit Agreement, among other senior claims. Both offers will expire on August 31, 2011 and there can be no assurance that any or all of the holders of the Notes and Debentures will participate. The Common Stock offered in exchange for the Notes will not and have not been registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1933, as amended, and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from registration requirements. The Company continues to manage a plan to improve operating results. The plan includes a joint venture agreement with a People’s Republic of China company to establish a cooperative venture limited liability company in the People’s Republic of China to engage in research, engineering, development, manufacturing, sale and distribution of LED lamps, LED digital signage and LED lighting or similar products. The Company is pursuing new business opportunities in the LED lighting market with energy-saving lighting solutions and supplementing our established digital display and signage businesses with a highly flexible, cost-efficient and creative means for facilities to enhance their environments with LED lighting. The Company intends to feature a comprehensive offering of the latest LED lighting technologies that provide facilities and public infrastructure with “green” lighting solutions that emit less heat, save energy and enable creative designs. The Company continues to seek ways to reduce costs of components used in its products and other expenses to improve sales margins, and continues to look at ways to lower overhead costs, such as compensation and benefits and has outsourced the human resources department in the second quarter. The plan includes partnering with an LED supplier and offering several new high resolution LED large screen systems. There can be no assurance that the Company will achieve higher sales, improved margins or lower costs. Because the Credit Agreement is secured by substantially all of the Company’s eligible accounts receivable, inventory and other assets, management cannot provide any assurance that the Company would have sufficient cash and liquid assets to fund normal operations during the period of time when it is required to repay amounts outstanding under the Credit Agreement. Further, if the Company is unable to obtain waivers or cure the defaults on the Debentures and the Notes, the Debentures and the Notes could be called and be immediately due. Such notice would trigger a default under the Credit Agreement. If the Credit Agreement, Debentures and Notes are called, the Company would need to obtain new financing; there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to do so and, even if it obtains such financing, how the terms of such financing will affect the Company. If the debt is called and new financing cannot be arranged, it is unlikely the Company will be able to continue as a going concern. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of asset carrying amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty. See Note 6 – Long-Term Debt for further details.
