EXPLANATORY NOTE
This Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-Q/A (the Amendment) amends the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2005 (the Original Report) of Tri-S Security Corporation (the Company). As reported in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by the Company on November 2, 2005, the Audit Committee of the Companys Board of Directors determined that the Companys consolidated financial statements included in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004, the Companys Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2005 and the Original Report should be restated to account for the Companys 10% equity interest in Army Fleet Support, LLC, a joint venture which provides logistics support for U.S. Army aviation training at Fort Rucker, Alabama, using the equity method, rather than the cost method, of accounting as required by Account Principles Board Opinion No. 18, The Equity Method of Accounting for Investments in Common Stock and Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 94, Consolidation of All Majority-Owned Subsidiaries.
The restated consolidated financial statements for the quarter ended June 30, 2005 included in the Amendment (the Restatement) report net income of $124,000 as opposed to a net loss of $133,000 as reported in the Original Report. See Note 2 of the Notes to Financial Statements included in the Amendment. The Amendment amends and restates Items 1, 2 and 4 of Part I and Item 6 of Part II of the Original Report to the extent necessary to reflect the effects of the Restatement. Except for such amendments, the Amendment continues to describe conditions as of the date of the Original Report, and the Company has not modified or updated other disclosures presented in the Original Report affected by subsequent events. Accordingly, the Amendment should be read in conjunction with the Original Report and the Companys filings made with the Securities and Exchange Commission subsequent to the filing of the Original Report.

3. Income Taxes
We account for our income taxes in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected tax consequences of temporary differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts and for operating loss carry forwards.
4. Initial Public Offering
On February 9, 2005, we commenced an underwritten initial public offering of 1,800,000 units (plus up an additional 270,000 units subject to the exercise of the underwriters over-allotment option), with each unit (a Unit) consisting of one share of our common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the Common Stock), and a warrant to purchase one share of Common Stock, at an initial offering price per Unit of $6.00 (the Initial Public Offering). The Initial Public Offering closed with respect to the initial 1,800,000 Units on February 14, 2005 and with respect to the additional 270,000 Units on March 17, 2005. The aggregate net proceeds to us from the Initial Public Offering were approximately $11,079,000 after underwriting discounts and commissions, offering expenses and consulting fees. As of December 31, 2004, we had accrued or paid $633,000 in aggregate costs for the Initial Public Offering. Since December 31, 2004, we
7
have accrued or paid an additional $165,000 in aggregate costs for the Initial Public Offering.
5. Acquisition of Paragon Systems, Inc.
On February 27, 2004, Tri-S acquired (the Acquisition) all of the outstanding capital stock of Paragon Systems, Inc., an Alabama corporation with offices located in Huntsville, Alabama (Paragon Systems). At the closing of the Acquisition, we: (i) paid $10.0 million, of which $2.3 million was paid in cash and $7.7 million was paid through the issuance of promissory notes (the Paragon Notes), to the former shareholders of Paragon Systems; and (ii) issued 100 shares of our Series C Redeemable Preferred Stock, par value $1.00 per share (the Series C Redeemable Preferred Stock), with an aggregate redemption value of $6.0 million. After the completion of the Initial Public Offering, we repaid the outstanding principal of the Paragon Notes and paid all unpaid, accrued interest thereon. We are obligated to redeem the outstanding shares of the Series C Redeemable Preferred Stock no later than February 27, 2007.
6. Common and Preferred Stock
On February 7, 2005, we effected an exchange and recapitalization (the Exchange and Recapitalization) of all outstanding shares of our Common Stock, Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $1.00 per share (the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock), and Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $1.00 per share (the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock), and all rights to acquire our Common Stock pursuant to an Exchange and Recapitalization Agreement dated November 19, 2004, among the Company and all of the holders of the outstanding Common Stock, Series A Convertible Preferred Stock and Series B Convertible Preferred Stock and the holders of all rights to acquire Common Stock. As a result of the Exchange and Recapitalization, all of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, Series A Convertible Preferred Stock and Series B Convertible Preferred Stock were exchanged for an aggregate of 1,200,000 shares of Common Stock. The Exchange and Recapitalization was given retroactive treatment in the financial statements and related disclosures.
As of June 30, 2005, we are authorized to issue ten million shares of preferred stock, par value $1.00 per share (the Preferred Stock). Our Board of Directors (the Board) is authorized, without further shareholder action, to divide any or all shares of authorized Preferred Stock into series and to fix and determine the designations, preferences and relative participating, optional or other special rights, and qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereon, of any series so established, including voting powers, dividend rights, liquidation preferences, redemption rights and conversion or exchange privileges.
As of December 31, 2004, we had outstanding 100,000 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, 40,000 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock and 100 shares of Series C Redeemable Preferred Stock. In the Exchange and Recapitalization, all of the outstanding shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock and Series B Convertible
8
Preferred Stock were exchanged for an aggregate of 242,718 shares of Common Stock and 129,450 shares of Common Stock, respectively. As of June 30, 2005, we did not have outstanding any shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock or Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, and we had outstanding 100 shares of Series C Redeemable Preferred Stock.
The Series A Convertible Preferred Stock and Series B Convertible Preferred Stock have no voting rights, except as otherwise required by applicable law, and no redemption, preemptive, dividend or sinking fund rights.
The Series C Redeemable Preferred Stock have no voting rights, except as otherwise required by applicable law, and no preemptive, conversion or sinking fund rights. In the event of a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, holders of the Series C Redeemable Preferred Stock are entitled to a liquidation preference, and the holders of shares of Common Stock have a secondary liquidation right to the assets of the Company. The shares of Series C Redeemable Preferred Stock have a redemption value of $60,000 per share. We may redeem the outstanding shares of the Series C Redeemable Preferred Stock at any time, but must redeem all of the outstanding shares of the Series C Redeemable Preferred Stock no later than February 27, 2007. The holders of the Series C Redeemable Preferred Stock are entitled to receive cumulative cash dividends at a rate of 5% of the redemption value per annum (or $3,000 per share per annum).
We are authorized to issue 25 million shares of Common Stock. The holders of Common Stock are entitled to one vote per share on all matters. The Common Stock does not have cumulative voting rights. Each share of Common Stock has an equal and ratable right to receive dividends to be paid from assets legally available when and if declared by the Board. We have never paid any cash dividends on the Common Stock.
On March 3, 2005, we issued 15,000 shares of Common Stock to Douglas Ball pursuant to that certain Letter Agreement between the Company and Mr. Ball dated December 7, 2004.
On April 26, 2005, we issued 8,700 shares of Common Stock to a public relations firm in exchange for services rendered by such firm to the Company.
On April 26, 2005, we issued: (i) an aggregate of 20,000 shares of Common Stock to two former shareholders of Paragon Systems pursuant to that certain Agreement Regarding Notes and Preferred Shares among the Company, Paragon Systems and the former shareholders of Paragon Systems dated as of September 29, 2004 and amended on October 6, 2004; (ii) 10,000 shares of Common Stock to an individual in exchange for services rendered by such individual to the Company; and (iii) a three-year option to purchase 25,000 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $6.00 per share to a public relations firm in exchange for services rendered by such firm to the Company.
9
In connection with the foregoing issuances, we recorded general and administrative expense in the amount of $95,000 which represents the fair market value of the shares of Common Stock on the issue dates thereof.
7. Contingencies
Based on currently known facts, we believe there are no claims or litigation pending against us the disposition of which would materially affect our financial position or future operating results, although we cannot be certain as to the ultimate outcome of any such claim or litigation. In addition, exposure to litigation is inherent in our ongoing business and may harm our business in the future.
8. Investment in Unconsolidated Affiliate
In conjunction with the Paragon Systems, Inc. acquisition on February 27, 2004, the Company acquired a 10% interest in the Army Fleet Service Joint Venture. The value of the investment in the joint venture at the acquition date was $8,102 as established through an independent appraisal. The Company amortizes the cost of its investment in the joint venture using a 10 year life which approximates the anticipated life of the joint venture.
The Company accounts for its investment in the joint venture using the equity method. Accordingly, the investment in the joint venture is increased by the Companys share of the joint ventures earnings and reduced by the amortization of the investment in the joint venture and the cash received from the joint venture.
The investment in the joint venture was effected by the following transactions for the three months ended June 30, 2005 and June 30, 2004:

9. Debt and Other Obligations
On April 20, 2005, Paragon Systems entered into a new Factoring and Security Agreement with LSQ Funding Group, L.L.C. (LSQ) which amends Paragon Systems existing factoring agreement with LSQ to increase Paragon Systems available credit line to $6.5 million and to decrease the effective borrowing rate on such credit line.
Item 2. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
Certain information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q/A for the quarter ended June 30, 2005 (the Quarterly Report) contains, and other reports or materials we have filed or will file with the SEC (as well as information included in oral statements or other written statements made or to be made by us) contain or will contain, forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 221E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act), Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the Securities Act), and pursuant to the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (the PSLRA). Such forward-looking statements may relate to financial results and plans for future business activities, and are thus prospective. Such forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties, and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from future results expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Among the important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those indicated by such forward-looking statements
10
include, without limitation, the loss of existing customers, failure of customers to renew or extend existing contracts for security guard services and the other risk factors detailed from time to time in our periodic reports and registration statements filed with the SEC. All forward-looking statements are made pursuant to the PSLRA and as such speak only as of the date made.
The results of operations presented or discussed below are based on historical results for the Company. Historical amounts for the six months ended June 30, 2004 and the period January 1, 2004 to February 27, 2004 for Paragon Systems prior to the Acquisition are combined for presentation and discussion purposes.
Paragon Systems was formerly a subchapter S corporation and, consequently, pro forma income tax expense and pro forma net income are presented on the face of the historical statements for the period January 1, 2004 to February 27, 2004. The adjustments include only taxes at a statutory rate of 38%.
Overview
We provide contract guard services to various Federal government agencies. These guard services include providing uniformed and armed guards for access control, personnel protection, plant security, theft prevention, surveillance, vehicular and foot patrol, crowd control and prevention of sabotage, terrorist and criminal activities. In connection with providing these services, we assume responsibility for a variety of functions, including recruiting, hiring, training and supervising security guards deployed to the Federal agencies we serve as well as paying all guards and providing them with uniforms, employee benefits and workers compensation insurance. We are responsible for preventing the interruption of guard services as a consequence of illness, vacations or resignations.
Three Months Ended June 30, 2005 Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 2004.
Revenue increased $277,000 to $7.7 million, or 3.7%, for the three months ended June 30, 2005 compared to revenue of $7.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004. The increase in revenue was generated primarily: (i) one new contract which commenced operations on October 1, 2004 which generated revenue of $65,000; (ii) additional services we provided as requested by the Federal Emergency Management Agency under a contract that we manage for the Department of Homeland Security which generated revenue of $67,000; and (iii) permitted additional costs increases under current contracts resulting from additional services we provided which generated revenue of $293,000.
These increases were partially offset by a reduction in services we provided under current contracts with the Corps of Engineers and a subsidiary of BAE Systems PLC (BAE). We provide guard service on a dredge operated by the Corps of Engineers when the dredge is in operation. When the dredge is not in operation, we do not provide any guard services. During the three months ended June 30, 2005, the dredge was not in operation for as many hours as it was in operation for the three months ended June 30, 2004. We provide subcontract services to BAE on an as-requested basis. BAE provides military logistics support services to the US Army
11
Space and Missile Defense Command. BAE requested fewer services from us in the three months ended June 30, 2005 than in the three months ended June 30, 2004.
Cost of revenue decreased $154,000 to $7.0 million, or 2.2%, for the three months ended June 30, 2005, compared to cost of revenue of $7.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004. The new contract which commenced operations on October 1, 2004 accounted for an increase in cost of $54,000 and two contracts with the Department of Homeland Security accounted for an increase in cost of $85,000. These cost increases were primarily labor-related. Costs associated with our contract with the Social Security Administration decreased $107,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2005 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2004 primarily due to reductions in overtime and in overhead expenses of the contract. Costs related to our contract with the Corps of Engineers decreased $54,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2005 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2004 because we did not provide as many guard hours to the Corps of Engineers relating to the dredging operation during the three months ended June 30, 2005. Costs related to our subcontract with BAE decreased $93,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2005 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2004 primarily because BAE requested fewer of our services during the three months ended June 30, 2005. All other costs decreased $39,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2005 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2004.
Our gross profit increased by $431,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2005 to $753,000 compared to gross profit for the three months ended June 30, 2004 of $322,000. This increase is primarily attributable to two of our contracts under which we were permitted to invoice approximately $300,000 in contract cost increases. In addition, we were able to reduce the cost of operations of our contract with the Social Security Administration by approximately $90,000.
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $339,000 to $793,000, or 75%, for the three months ended June 30, 2005 compared to $454,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2004. The increase in costs for 2005 is attributable primarily to costs associated with the corporate office of Tri-S, which includes staff costs and legal, accounting and other professional fees associated with being a public company. There were no similar costs incurred for the three months ended June 30, 2004. Selling, general and administrative expense for the three months ended June 30, 2005 also includes $95,000 which represents the fair market value of the shares of Common Stock issued in exchange for services rendered to the Company.
We have signed a non-binding letter of intent to acquire a security services firm that provides a full range of security and investigative services. We believe that if this acquisition is completed, then our profits will increase.
Income from the Army Fleet Support increased $309,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2005 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2004. For the three months ended June 30, 2005, we recognized $620,000 of net earnings from the joint venture less $206,000 of amortization expense related to the joint venture, for a net result of $414,000 of income from joint venture. For the three months ended June 30, 2004, we recognized $105,000 of net income from joint venture, which was comprised of $311,000 net earnings from joint venture and $206,000 of amortization expense.
Net interest expense decreased $345,000 to $174,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2005 compared to net interest expense of $519,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2004. Interest expense of $108,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2005 represents the cost of providing working capital to Paragon Systems. Net interest expense of $317,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2004 relates to the cost of providing working capital to Paragon Systems and the cost of the Acquisition. In connection with the Acquisition, Paragon Systems entered into a
12
factoring agreement with LSQ to finance a portion of the purchase price of the Acquisition. Interest expense of $127,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2004 is the interest costs with respect to the Paragon Notes. In February 2005, the Company completed its Initial Public Offering and received proceeds from the offering before expenses of the offering of $11.1 million. The Company used the proceeds from the Initial Public Offering to repay the Paragon Notes and to pay down Paragon Systems liability to LSQ. Repayment of the Paragon Notes and the reduction of the obligation to LSQ significantly reduced interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2005. Interest expense relating to the Series C Redeemable Preferred Stock was $75,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2005 and for the three months ended June 30, 2004. Interest expense relating to the Series C Redeemable Preferred Stock will continue to accrue interest at the rate of $25,000 per month.
Income taxes are provided at 38% of income (loss) before income taxes. The 38% rate equals federal income taxes at 34% plus 4% for state income taxes net of the Federal effect. Even though the Company has a net operating loss carry forward of approximately $1.1 million, the Company has recognized a deferred income tax benefit for the net operating loss carry forward because the Company anticipates reporting income before income taxes in future periods. In addition, the Company is taxed with respect to its shares of taxable earnings by Army Fleet Support.
Six Months Ended June 30, 2005 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2004.
Revenue increased $973,000 to $15.7 million, or 6.6%, for the six months ended June 30, 2005 compared to revenue of $14.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004. The increase in revenue was generated primarily from: (i) one new contract which commenced operations on October 1, 2004 which generated revenue of $130,000; (ii) additional services we provided as requested by the Federal Emergency Management Agency under a contract that we manage for the Department of Homeland Security which generated revenue of $240,000; and (iii) permitted additional cost increases under current contracts resulting from additional services we provided which generated revenue of $750,000.
These increases were partially offset by a reduction in services we provided under current contracts with the Corps of Engineers. We provide guard service on a dredge operated by the Corps of Engineers when the dredge is in operation. When the dredge is not in operation, we do not provide any guard services. During the six months ended June 30, 2005, the dredge was not in operation for as many hours as it was in operation during the six months ended June 30, 2004. Most of this reduction occurred in the three months ended June 30, 2005.
Cost of revenue increased $759,000 to $14.6 million, or 5.5%, for the six months ended June 30, 2005 compared to cost of revenue of $13.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004. Amortization of our investment in government contracts accounted for $65,000 of the increase and the new contract which commenced operations on October 1, 2004 accounted for another $110,000 of the increase. The remaining $584,000 of increased cost of managing our
13
government contracts relates to previously existing contracts. Costs related to our two contracts with the Department of Homeland Security increased $560,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2005 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2004 primarily due to labor-related costs increases during the six months ended June 30, 2005 that we did not incur during the six months ended June 30, 2004. Cost associated with our contract with the Social Security Administration increased $102,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2005 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2004 primarily due to labor-related cost increases. Cost related to our contract with the Corps of Engineers decreased $92,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2005 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2004 because we did not provide as many guard hours to the Corps of Engineers relating to the dredging operation. Cost related to our contract with BAE decreased $40,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2005 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2004 because BAE requested fewer of our services during the three months ended June 30, 2005. All other costs increased $54,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2005 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2004.
Our gross profit increased by $214,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2005 to $1.1 million compared to the gross profit for six months ended June 30, 2004 of $887,000. This increase is primarily attributable to one of our contracts under which we were permitted to invoice approximately $200,000 in contract cost increases in the three months ended June 30, 2005. In addition, we were able to reduce the cost of operations of our contract with the Social Security Administration by approximately $90,000. Our gross profit was reduced by $65,000 in the six months ended June 30, 2005 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2004 because the six months ended June 30, 2005 included six months of amortization and the six months ended June 30, 2004 included four months of amortization.
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $574,000 to $1.5 million, or 64%, for the six months ended June 30, 2005 compared to $897,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2004. The increase in costs for 2005 is attributable primarily to costs associated with the corporate office of Tri-S, which includes staff costs and legal, accounting and other professional fees associated with being a public company. There were no similar costs incurred for the six months ended June 30, 2004. Selling, general and administrative expense for the six months ended June 30, 2005 also includes $95,000 which represents the fair market value of the shares of Common Stock issued in exchange for services rendered to the Company.
We have signed a non-binding letter of intent to acquire a security services firm that provides a full range of security services. We believe that if this acquisition is completed, then our profits will increase.
Income from the Army Fleet Support increased $953,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2005 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2004. For the six months ended June 30, 2005, we recognized $1,460,000 of net earnings from the joint venture less $412,000 of amortization expense related to the joint venture, for a net result of $1,048,000 of income from joint venture. For the six months ended June 30, 2004, we recognized $95,000 of net income from joint venture, which was comprised of $370,000 net earnings from joint venture and $275,000 of amortization expense.
Net interest expense decreased $176,000 to $552,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2005 compared to net interest expense of $728,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2004. Interest expense of $339,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2005 is the cost of providing working capital to Paragon Systems. Interest expense of $453,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2004 relates to the cost of providing working capital to Paragon Systems and to the costs of the Acquisition. Interest expense of $80,000 and $173,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively, is the interest costs with respect to the Paragon Notes. In February 2005,
14
the Company completed its Initial Public Offering and received proceeds from the offering before expenses of the offering of $11.1 million. The Company used the proceeds from the Initial Public Offering to repay the Paragon Notes and to pay down Paragon Systems liability to LSQ. Repayment of the Paragon Notes and the reduction of Paragon Systems obligation to LSQ significantly reduced interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2005 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2004. Interest expense relating to the Series C Redeemable Preferred Stock was $150,000 and $102,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2005 and June 30, 2004, respectively. Interest expense relating to the Series C Redeemable Preferred Stock will continue to accrue interest at the rate of $25,000 per month.
Income taxes are provided at 38% of income (loss) before income taxes. The 38% rate equals Federal income taxes at 34% plus 4% for state income taxes net of the Federal effect. Paragon Systems used the cash basis of accounting for income taxes prior to the Acquisition. Pro forma income tax benefit at 38% is presented for comparative purposes. Even though Tri-S has a net operating loss carry forward of approximately $1.1 million, the Company has recognized a deferred income tax benefit for the net operating loss carry forward because the Company anticipates reporting income before income taxes in future periods. The Company is taxed based on its shares of the taxable earnings of Army Fleet Services JV.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our current financial condition has been significantly influenced by the following factors: (i) completion of the Initial Public Offering; (ii) repayment of the Paragon Notes; and (iii) receipt of cash distributions with respect to the Companys equity interest in Army Fleet Support. Our current financial condition has also been influenced by improved margins in the later part of the six months ended June 30, 2005.
On February 9, 2005, we completed the Initial Public Offering, realizing proceeds of $11.1 million. After repayment of the Paragon Notes totaling $7.7 million, paying $165,000 in additional costs of the Initial Public Offering and paying down Paragon Systems obligation to LSQ, we retained approximately $1.8 million in the business to fund working capital, to pay down other debt obligations, to expand our operations and for general corporate purposes.
We received $400,000, $309,000 and $146,000 in cash distributions with respect to our equity investment in Army Fleet Support in January, April and June 2005, respectively. We anticipate receiving larger distributions from Army Fleet Support over the next six months. We intend to use these cash distributions to make acquisitions, to meet our income tax obligations resulting from the conversion of Paragon Systems from an S corporation to a C corporation for income tax purposes and for other general corporate purposes.
Cash out flow from operating activities was $1.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2005. This resulted primarily from two factors: (i) payments for interest of $1.0 million; and (ii)
15
operating losses for the six months ended June 30, 2005 of $370,000. On April 20, 2005, Paragon Systems amended its factoring facility with LSQ, which significantly reduced the cost of funds provided by LSQ for working capital purposes. We also repaid the Paragon Notes totaling $7.7 million on February 15, 2005. As a result, net interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2005 was $345,000 less than interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2004. We also anticipate that interest expense for the six months ending December 31, 2005 will be substantially less than interest expense for the six months ended December 31, 2004.
Item 4: Controls and Procedures
In the Original Report, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by the Quarterly Report, our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act) were effective. This conclusion was reached after our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer evaluated our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by the Quarterly Report, as required by paragraph (b) of Rules 13a-15 or 15d-15 of the Exchange Act.
In connection with preparing the restated consolidated financial statements included in the Amendment, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer further evaluated our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by the Quarterly Report and concluded that such disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective because in the Original Report we accounted for our 10% equity interest in Army Fleet Support in accordance with cost method of accounting rather than the equity method of accounting.
During the quarter ended June 30, 2005, there was not any change in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Rules 13a-15 or 15d-15 of the Exchange Act that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
16
litigation. In addition, exposure to litigation is inherent in our ongoing business and may harm our business in the future.
The exhibits required to be filed with this Quarterly Report are set forth on the Exhibit Index attached hereto.
