The Company’s Internet-based SecureCare.net portal is an electronic document exchange and e-signature workflow solution that was built with Microsoft’s dotNet state-of-the art development tools. The SecureCare.net portal is tailored to the needs of physicians, clinics and home healthcare, hospice and durable medical equipment providers.
The Company markets its services to customers throughout the United States; currently operating from its Austin, Texas-based corporate headquarters.
The Company intends to continue to utilize the Internet to provide browser-initiated healthcare document exchange and e-signature solutions that facilitate the confidential, on-line exchange of healthcare information for many participants in the healthcare industry. Based on the technology and products in place, other applications can and will be developed that will enhance the Company’s position in the physician’s office and in the offices of other providers of healthcare. These services using Internet technology in the healthcare industry are subject to risks, including but not limited to those associated with competition from existing companies offering similar services, rapid technological change, development risks, management of growth and a minimal previous record of operations or earnings.
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, they do not include all of the financial information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2009.
Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to current presentation.
These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008.

GOING CONCERN
The financial statements have been prepared on the assumption that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company sustained a net loss of $944,569 for the nine months ended September 30, 2009. The Company has accumulated losses through September 30, 2009 of $41,302,680 (including a non-recurring loss on early extinguishment of debt totaling $19,030,648 incurred in the fourth quarter of 2006). Cash used in operating activities for the nine month period ended September 30, 2009 aggregated $664,684. Total liabilities at September 30, 2009 of $3,688,600 significantly exceed total assets of $90,035. The Company is unable to meet all of its short-term obligations because of shortages of cash. The Company’s continued existence depends upon the success of management’s efforts to raise additional capital necessary to meet the Company’s obligations as they come due, and to obtain sufficient capital to execute its business plan. The Company intends to obtain capital primarily through issuances of debt or equity. There can be no degree of assurance that the Company will be successful in completing additional financing transactions. Failure to generate additional revenues, raise additional capital or manage discretionary spending could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern and to achieve its intended business objectives. The accompanying unaudited financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or classification of liabilities which may result from the inability of the Company to continue as a going concern.
RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
On July 1, 2009, the GAAP hierarchy was effectively codified under the Accounting Standards Codification (the “Codification” or “ASC”). The Codification is now considered the single source of authoritative U.S. accounting and reporting standards, expect for additional authoritative rules and interpretive releases issued by the SEC. The Codification was developed to provide a logical organization of GAAP pronouncements by topic. It is organized by topic, subtopic, section, and paragraph, each of which is identified by a numerical designation. This Quarterly report on Form 10-Q contains references to the Codification as needed.
In December 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 805 Business Combinations. ASU 805 will significantly change the accounting for business combinations in a number of areas including the treatment of contingent consideration, contingencies, acquisition costs, IPR&D and restructuring costs. In addition, under ASU 805, changes in deferred tax asset valuation allowances and acquired income tax uncertainties in a business combination after the measurement period will impact income tax expense. ASU 805 was effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2009. The provisions of ASU 805 will impact the Company if it is a party to a business combination after the pronouncement is adopted.
In May 2009, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 855 Subsequent Events which establishes general standards of accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date, but before the financial statements are issued or available to be issued (“subsequent events”). ASU 855 requires disclosure of the date through which the entity has evaluated subsequent events and the basis for that date. For public entities, this is the date the financial statements are issued. ASU 855 does not apply to subsequent events or transactions that are within the scope of other GAAP and will not result in significant changes in the subsequent events reported by the Company. ASU 855 is effective for interim or annual periods ending after June 15, 2009. The Company adopted the provisions of ASU 855 during the quarter ended June 30, 2009. The adoption of these provisions did not have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNFICANT ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES
REVENUE RECOGNITION
The Company derives its revenues from the following healthcare provider sources - recurring monthly service fees, one-time training and setup fees and integration and customization services as contracted.
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104, “Revenue Recognition” (“SAB 104”). SAB 104 generally requires that four basic criteria must be met before revenue can be recognized: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (2) delivery has occurred or services have been rendered; (3) the fee is fixed and determinable; and (4) collectability is reasonably assured. Determination of criteria (3) and (4) are based on management’s judgments regarding the fixed nature of the fee charged for services rendered and the collectability of those fees. Should changes in conditions cause management to determine these criteria are not met for certain sales, revenue recognized for any reporting period could be adversely affected. In instances where any one of the four criteria is not met, the Company will either defer recognition of the monthly service fees until the criteria are met or will recognize the recurring monthly service fees on a ratable basis. SAB 104 incorporates Accounting Standards Update 605-25 Revenue Recognition – Multiple Element Arrangements. ASU 605-25 addresses accounting for arrangements that may involve the delivery or performance of multiple products, services and/or rights to use assets. ASU 605-25 addresses determination of whether an arrangement involving more than one deliverable contains more that one unit of accounting and how the arrangement consideration should be measured and allocated to the separate units of accounting. Recognition of revenue resulting from one-time training and set-up fees, which are billed upfront, is deferred and amortized over the life of the corresponding arrangement.
SOFTWARE AND SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT COSTS
The Company capitalizes costs related to computer software developed or obtained for internal use in accordance with Accounting Standards Update 350-40, “Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use” and is depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the software, generally two years. At September 30, 2009, capitalized software development costs of $235,750 were fully amortized and are included in property and equipment in the accompanying balance sheet. No software development costs were incurred or capitalized during the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2009 and 2008.
LONG-LIVED ASSETS
Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to the undiscounted future net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its fair value. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell.
PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT
Property and equipment are recorded at cost. The Company provides for depreciation of property and equipment using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the depreciable assets ranging from two to five years. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Replacements and betterments are capitalized. Depreciation expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008 was $42,028 and $47,563, respectively.
STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
The Company expenses all share-based payments to employees, including the grant of employee stock options, in the income statement based on their fair values less estimated forfeitures. Compensation cost is recognized over the award’s requisite service period (which is generally the vesting term). The Company grants newly issued shares of common stock upon exercise of stock options.
The value of equity instruments issued to non-employees is calculated for all transactions in which goods or services are the consideration received for the issuance of equity instruments and is accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The measurement date of the fair value of the equity instrument issued is the earlier of the date on which the counterparty’s performance is complete or the date on which it is probable that performance will occur.

CONTINGENCIES
On March 7, 2008, the Company received a letter from an attorney for an investor demanding payment on a promissory note issued in 2004 with a principal balance of $63,500. Another party has advised the Company that it is the legal owner of the promissory note. No legal action has been commenced and the Company is attempting to resolve the matter between the parties. As of the date of this filing the matter has not been resolved between the two parties. The promissory note has been carried on the Company’s books as a liability and management does not believe that the outcome of this matter will have a material effect on the Company’s financial position, operating results or cash flows. However, there can be no assurance that any legal proceeding that develops as a result of this matter will not have a material adverse impact on the Company’s liquidity.
On September 2, 2009 the Company received a “Notice of Claim and Conference” (the “Notice”) from the Labor Commissioner, State of California, regarding a wage claim filed by Dennis J. Nasto, plaintiff against SecureCare Technologies, Inc., defendant. Mr. Nasto served as CEO of the Company and a member of the Board of Directors of the Company from October 2006 through June, 2009 when he was terminated. Mr. Nasto filed a wage claim with the State of California for six months of deferred wages, totaling $30,000. In his wage claim, Mr. Nasto also alleges additional wages due as a penalty at the rate of $692 per day until paid, but not to exceed thirty days, for a total of $20,769. The deferred wages of $30,000 for which Mr. Nasto is seeking payment, are fully accrued for and included in accrued payroll in the accompanying balance sheet at September 30, 2009. The additional wages, alleged by Mr. Nasto in his wage claim, due as a penalty, totaling $20,769 have not been accrued for at September 30, 2009. The Company does not believe, after a review of the applicable rules and regulations that it is probable that these additional wages will be awarded to Mr. Nasto. In addition, as of the date of this filing, the Company has received additional written communications from Mr. Nasto to the effect that he is interested in pursing other non-administrative avenues related to the settlement of his wage claim.
USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The Company’s most significant estimates relate to fair value of stock based compensation, software services revenue recognition, capitalization of software development costs and depreciation of fixed assets. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
INCOME TAXES
Deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences of temporary differences by applying enacted statutory tax rates applicable to future years to differences between financial statement carrying amounts and the tax bases of existing assets and liabilities. Under the asset and liability method, the effect on deferred taxes of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. Income tax expense or benefit is the payable or refund for the period plus or minus the change during the period in deferred tax assets and liabilities.
LOSS PER COMMON SHARE
Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares and dilutive common stock equivalents outstanding for the period. Common stock equivalents for the nine month periods ended September 30, 2009 and 2008 totaling 1,160,262 and 1,516,356, respectively, have been excluded from the computation since such inclusion would have an anti-dilutive effect. The following table details the common stock equivalents excluded from the net loss per share computation:

NOTE 3. NOTES PAYABLE (Continued)
Bridge Financing Summary – Notes Payable Issued October 2008 through January 2009
On September 22, 2008 the Board of Directors approved the issuance of a new series of notes payable (the “New Notes”) totaling $500,000 maturing on December 31, 2009, with a stated interest rate of 8% per annum with principal and interest payable at maturity. The New Notes have attached shares of the Company’s common stock in the form of one share of common stock for each $1.00 invested into the offering for a total of up to 500,000 shares to be issued.
From October 1, 2008 through December 31, 2008 the Company received a total of $250,000 in gross proceeds from the New Notes. In addition, the Company issued 250,000 shares of common stock to the participating investors. These shares were valued at a range of $0.10 to $0.30 per share based on the fair value of the Company’s common stock on the date of issuance resulting in a total fair value of $285,500. The Company allocated the proceeds received between the notes payable and the shares of common stock issued based on their relative fair values at the date of issuance. Based on the relative fair value calculations, the Company allocated $30,116 of the $250,000 in proceeds to the shares of common stock issued and the remaining $219,884 to the notes payable. The debt discount amount of $30,116 was being amortized as a component of interest expense over the initial life of the notes (eleven to fifteen months).
From January 1, 2009 through January 31, 2009 the Company received a total of $50,000 in gross proceeds from the New Notes. In addition, the Company issued 50,000 shares of common stock to the participating investors. These shares were valued at $0.10 per share based on the fair value of the Company’s common stock on the date of issuance resulting in a total fair value of $55,000. The Company allocated the proceeds received between the notes payable and the shares of common stock issued based on their relative fair values at the date of issuance. Based on the relative fair value calculations, the Company allocated $4,545 of the $50,000 in proceeds to the shares of common stock issued and the remaining $45,455 to the notes payable. The debt discount amount of $4,545 was being amortized as a component of interest expense over the initial life of the notes (eleven months).
Effective February 1, 2009 the Company made an offer to the holders of the New Notes, representing $300,000 in principal amount outstanding, to convert the New Notes to shares of the Company’s common stock at a rate of one share of common stock to be issued for each $0.10 in principal amount converted for a total of up to 3,000,000 shares of common stock to be issued (the “Offer”). On February 1, 2009, the date of the Offer, the holders of the New Notes, twelve note holders in total, owned 59.5% of the outstanding common stock of the Company. As of March 4, 2009, the Company had received signed consents from the twelve New Note holders consenting to the conversion offer representing the entire $300,000 in principal amount outstanding. As of the date of conversion of the individual New Notes, which occurred between February 17, 2009 and March 4, 2009, the Company had accrued interest totaling $5,600. Payment of this accrued interest was waived by the consenting note holders. In addition, the Company had amortized $8,029 of the debt discount on the New Notes which originally totaled $34,661; therefore the unamortized debt discount on the New Notes totaled $26,631 as of the date of the conversion of the individual New Notes. The Company accounted for this conversion of New Notes into 3,000,000 shares of common stock as a capital contribution by the twelve note holders, who owned 59.5% of the outstanding common stock of the Company on the Offer date, February 1, 2009 and who owned 72.1% of the outstanding common stock of the Company on March 31, 2009.
Bridge Financing Summary – Notes Payable Issued June 2007 through July 2008
On June 13, 2007, the Board of Directors approved, effective June 1, 2007, the issuance of a series of Notes Payable (the “Financing”) totaling $1,500,000 maturing on December 31, 2008, with a stated interest rate of 6% per annum, with principal and interest payable at maturity. The Company had the option to extend the maturity date of the notes an additional twelve months. The stated interest rate on these notes during the optional extension period is 9% per annum.
On April 2, 2008, the Board of Directors approved a $500,000 increase (the “Extension”) to the $1,500,000 Financing, initially approved June 13, 2007, to a total of $2,000,000. The Financing and Extension Notes Payable have attached shares of the Company’s stock in the form of one share of common stock for each $2.50 invested into the offering for a total of up to 800,000 shares of common stock to be issued, of which 786,000 shares had been issued as of December 31, 2008.
As of September 30, 2009, the Company had received a total of $1,965,000 in gross proceeds from issuance of notes payable in the Financing and the Extension. These notes payable were issued between June, 2007 and July, 2008 and are still outstanding at September 30, 2009. In addition, the Company has issued 786,000 shares of common stock to the participating investors. These shares were valued at a range of $0.51 to $6.00 per share based on the fair value of the Company’s common stock on the date of issuance resulting in a total fair value of $3,359,636. The Company allocated the proceeds received between the notes payable and the shares of common stock issued based on the relative fair values at the date of issuance. Based on the relative fair value calculations, the Company allocated $693,260 of the $1,965,000 in proceeds to the shares of common stock issued and the remaining $1,271,740 to the notes payable. The debt discount amount of $693,260 has been fully amortized as a component of interest expense over the original life of the notes as of September 30, 2009.

NOTE 3. NOTES PAYABLE (Continued)
In November 2008, the Company notified the holders of the Notes Payable issued in the Financing and the Extension, totaling $1,965,000 in principal amount of the 6% notes payable, initially due December 31, 2008, that it was exercising its option to extend the maturity date one year to December 31, 2009. Effective January 1, 2009, the interest rate on these notes increased to 9% per annum.
Bridge Financing Summary – Notes Payable Issued December 2006 through May 2007
At September 30, 2009, the Company has $638,000 in outstanding two year 6% convertible bridge notes payable (convertible to common stock at a rate of $2.50 per share for a total of up to 255,200 shares to be issued) , for which the Company has issued 255,200 warrants to purchase common stock at $5.00 per share. These notes payable were issued between December, 2006 and May, 2007. The warrants were valued at a range of $5.91 to $29.91 per warrant resulting in a total fair value of $3,249,819. The Company allocated the proceeds received between the notes payable and the detachable warrants based on the relative fair values at the date of issuance. Based on the relative fair value calculations, the Company allocated $512,817 of the $638,000 in proceeds to the detachable warrants and the remaining $125,183 to the notes payable. The notes also contained a conversion feature allowing the note holders to convert the notes into common shares at a conversion price of $2.50 per share. The Company calculated a beneficial conversion feature in the amount of $3,146,817; however, the value of the beneficial conversion feature may not exceed the proceeds allocated to the notes payable under the relative fair value calculations. As a result, the value of the beneficial conversion feature is limited to $125,183, the amount of the proceeds allocated to notes payable. The debt discount amount of $638,000 ($512,817 related to the fair value of the warrants and $125,183 related to the beneficial conversion feature) was being amortized as a component of interest expense over the original life of the notes (twenty-four months).
On August 6, 2008, the Board of Directors approved a Note Extension Terms and Conditions Offer (the “Offer”), to the note holders who have invested in this financing, totaling $638,000 in principal amounts between December 2006 and May 2007 (the “Notes”). The Notes and the related accrued interest originally matured between December 2008 and May 2009; however, the Offer included a one-year extension of the maturity date of the Notes. In exchange for agreeing to the one-year extension, the Note holders were offered an increased interest rate from 6% to 7.5% during the extension period, a re-pricing of the stock purchase warrants sold in connection with the Notes from $5.00 per share to $2.50 per share, and the Offer granted the Note holders the right, exercisable at their sole discretion, to receive common stock at a price of $1.50 per share in lieu of accrued interest at the extended maturity date (representing a total of up to 67,420 shares of common stock to be issued). An analysis of the fair value of the warrants after the Offer consideration resulted in immaterial changes to the original fair value calculation; therefore, no accounting adjustment has been made, with the exception of the debt discount amortization, which the remaining amount is now being amortized over the 12 month extension period.
As of September 30, 2008 the Company had received written consents to the Offer from Note holders representing the entire $638,000 principal amount of notes outstanding.

NOTE 6. SHAREHOLDERS’ DEFICIT
During the nine months ended September 30, 2009, in conjunction with $50,000 in gross proceeds from issuance of notes payable (the “New Notes”), the Company issued 50,000 shares of common stock to the participating investors (see Note 3 for additional information).
Effective February 1, 2009 the Company made an offer to the holders of the New Notes, representing $300,000 in principal amount outstanding, to convert the New Notes to shares of the Company’s common stock at a rate of one share of common stock to be issued for each $0.10 in principal amount converted for a total of up to 3,000,000 shares of common stock to be issued (the “Offer”). On February 1, 2009, the date of the Offer, the holders of the New Notes, twelve note holders in total, owned 59.5% of the outstanding common stock of the Company. As of March 4, 2009, the Company had received signed consents from the twelve New Note holders consenting to the conversion offer representing the entire $300,000 in principal amount outstanding and waiving the accrued interest on the New Notes, through the conversion dates that totaled $5,600. The Company accounted for this conversion of New Notes into 3,000,000 shares of common stock as a capital contribution by the twelve note holders, who owned 59.5% of the outstanding common stock of the Company on the Offer date, February 1, 2009 and who owned 72.1% of the outstanding common stock of the Company on March 31, 2009 (see Note 3 for additional information). The net carrying amount of the debt plus accrued interest on the date of conversion totaled $278,969 and approximated the fair value of the 3,000,000 shares issued in conversion of the New Notes, based on the closing market price of the stock issued on the date of conversion.
Effective February 1, 2009 the Company commenced a $400,000 fund raise (the “Fund Raise”) to provide the Company with additional working capital through an offering of its common stock to qualified investors, at a price of $0.10 per share for up to 4,000,000 shares of common stock to be issued if the entire $400,000 in funds is raised. From February 1, 2009 through September 30, 2009, the Company raised a total of $353,426 in funds from its Fund Raise and has $1,421 recorded as a stock subscription receivable due from a related party. The Company issued 3,548,474 shares of common stock to the participating investors. Of the 3,548,474 shares issued in the Fund Raise, 3,233,474 shares were issued to investors who owned shares of common stock of the Company prior to the Fund Raise and 315,000 shares were issued to four investors who were not owners of common stock of the Company prior to the Fund Raise.
Effective September 1, 2009 the Company commenced a $100,000 fund raise (the “New Fund Raise”) to provide the Company with additional working capital through an offering of its common stock to qualified investors to purchase up to 1,250,000 shares of common stock at $0.08 per share through September 21, 2009; thereafter the price would be $0.10 per share. Subsequent to September 1, 2009, when the New Fund Raise commenced, the Board of Directors of the Company approved an initial extension to October 9, 2009 and a further extension to October 31, 2009 to purchase shares of common stock at $0.08 per share; after October 31, 2009 the price will be $0.10 per share. From September 1, 2009 through September 30, 2009, the Company raised a total of $59,757 in funds from its New Fund Raise and the Company issued 746,963 shares of common stock to the participating investors. All 746,963 shares issued in the New Fund Raise were issued to investors who owned shares of common stock of the Company prior to the New Fund Raise.
On September 21, 2009, a related-party note holder exchanged $25,000 in principal amount of outstanding notes payable for shares of common stock. One share of common stock was issued for each $0.08 in principal amount converted for a total of 312,500 shares of common stock issued. The related-party note holder is a member of the Board of Directors of the Company and owns 15.48 percent of the outstanding shares of common stock of the Company at September 30, 2009.

Based on the technology and products in place, other applications can and will be developed that will enhance the Company’s position in the physician’s office and in the offices of other providers of healthcare. These services using Internet technology in the healthcare industry are subject to risks, including but not limited to those associated with competition from existing companies offering similar services, rapid technological change, development risks, management of growth and a minimal previous record of operations or earnings.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND USE OF ESTIMATES
The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based on our unaudited financial statements, which have been prepared according to U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. In preparing these financial statements, we are required to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. We evaluate these estimates on an on-going basis. We base these estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. We consider the following accounting policies to be the most important to the portrayal of our financial condition and that require the most subjective judgment.

REVENUE RECOGNITION
The Company derives its revenues from the following healthcare provider sources - recurring monthly service fees, one-time training and setup fees and integration and customization services as contracted.
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104, “Revenue Recognition” (“SAB 104”). SAB 104 generally requires that four basic criteria must be met before revenue can be recognized: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (2) delivery has occurred or services have been rendered; (3) the fee is fixed and determinable; and (4) collectability is reasonably assured. Determination of criteria (3) and (4) are based on management’s judgments regarding the fixed nature of the fee charged for services rendered and the collectability of those fees. Should changes in conditions cause management to determine these criteria are not met for certain sales, revenue recognized for any reporting period could be adversely affected. In instances where any one of the four criteria is not met, the Company will either defer recognition of the monthly service fees until the criteria are met or will recognize the recurring monthly service fees on a ratable basis. SAB 104 incorporates Accounting Standards Update 605-25 Revenue Recognition – Multiple Element Arrangements. ASU 605-25 addresses accounting for arrangements that may involve the delivery or performance of multiple products, services and/or rights to use assets. ASU 605-25 addresses determination of whether an arrangement involving more than one deliverable contains more that one unit of accounting and how the arrangement consideration should be measured and allocated to the separate units of accounting. Recognition of revenue resulting from one-time training and set-up fees, which are billed upfront, is deferred and amortized over the life of the corresponding arrangement.
SOFTWARE AND SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT COSTS
The Company capitalizes costs related to computer software developed or obtained for internal use in accordance with Accounting Standards Update 350-40, “Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use” and is depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the software, generally two years. ASU 350-40 provides guidance on determining whether computer software is internal-use software and guidance on accounting for proceeds of computer software originally developed or obtained for internal use and then subsequently sold to the public. It also provides guidance on capitalization of the costs incurred for computer software developed or obtained for internal use.
LONG-LIVED ASSETS
Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to the undiscounted future net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its fair value. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell.
STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
The Company expenses all share-based payments to employees, including the grant of employee stock options, in the income statement based on their fair values less estimated forfeitures. Compensation cost is recognized over the award’s requisite service period (which is generally the vesting term). The Company grants newly issued shares of common stock upon exercise of stock options.
The value of equity instruments issued to non-employees is calculated for all transactions in which goods or services are the consideration received for the issuance of equity instruments and is accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The measurement date of the fair value of the equity instrument issued is the earlier of the date on which the counterparty’s performance is complete or the date on which it is probable that performance will occur.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Three months ended September 30, 2009 compared to three months ended September 30, 2008:
Revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2009 were $82,115 compared to $48,505 for the three months ended September 30, 2008. This 69% increase in sales is primarily attributed to revenue from the Company’s new flagship product, Sfax™. The Company launched Sfax, with its initial functionality in October of 2007. The Company completed significant functionality upgrades in February of 2008 with the addition of the Digital Signature and annotation features. In March of 2008 the Company completed development of its web service integration tools to provide its channel partners, health care information technology (HIT) companies and software vendors, with a simple, rapid and cost-effective method of integrating Sfax into any application architecture.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued)
Costs of revenues were $44,529 for the three months ended September 30, 2009 compared to $31,710 for the three months ended September 30, 2008. This 40% increase is primarily attributable to higher Telco infrastructure and related costs associated with growth in the Company’s Sfax product of $12,843 and higher contract developer costs of $6,982 partially offset by lower depreciation expense of $5,648 and lower hardware support fees of $1,359.
Selling, general and administrative expenses were $205,253 for the three months ended September 30, 2009 compared to $560,668 for the three months ended September 30, 2008. This 63% decrease in expense was largely attributable to a series of cost reduction actions the Company instituted in mid-2008 that focused on conserving its available cash without sacrificing its revenue growth-related investments. People and people-related expenses decreased $103,053 primarily due to lower salaries and wages of $89,545 and lower employee medical insurance costs of $7,128 resulting from fewer employees in 2009. Stock compensation expense was $232,100 lower in 2009 due to fewer stock options vesting in 2009 coupled with the fact that a significant portion of the stock options granted in 2008 vested immediately, requiring 100% of the stock compensation to be booked on the day the grants were made. Penalties and interest on employment taxes owed were $6,752 lower in 2009 due to expense accruals made in 2008. Audit and taxation services expenses decreased $11,300 in 2009 due to a reduction in the amount of required taxation services. Investor relations expenses decreased $5,071 in 2009 as a result of the Company terminating these services in mid-2008. All other corporate G&A expenses were $5,799 lower in 2009. Partially offsetting these lower expenses were higher marketing consulting costs of $8,784 in 2009.
Other income was $23,359 for the three months ended September 30, 2009 compared to $552 for the three months ended September 30, 2008. In 2009, the Company had a non-recurring credit of $23,359 for statutory accounts payable adjustments that were made in accordance with the four year statute of limitations allowed for under the state of Texas Civil Practices and Remedies Code (Section 16.004 (a)(3)).
Interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2009 was $90,306 compared to $250,146 for the same period in 2008. Debt discount amortization in 2009 was $177,362 lower than 2008 as the majority of the debt discount associated with the issuance of notes payable from December 2006 through December 2008 has been amortized, in accordance with the life of the notes. The issuance of notes payable in 2008 and 2009 coupled with an increase in the stated interest rate on certain portions of the Company’s outstanding debt contributed to an increase in interest expense in 2009 of $18,613 (see Note 3 for additional information).
Nine months ended September 30, 2009 compared to nine months ended September 30, 2008:
Revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 were $217,490 compared to $124,323 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008. This 75% increase in sales is primarily attributed to revenue from the Company’s new flagship product, Sfax™. The Company launched Sfax, with its initial functionality in October of 2007. The Company completed significant functionality upgrades in February of 2008 with the addition of the Digital Signature and annotation features. In March of 2008 the Company completed development of its web service integration tools to provide its channel partners, health care information technology (HIT) companies and software vendors, with a simple, rapid and cost-effective method of integrating Sfax into any application architecture.
Costs of revenues were $112,198 for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 compared to $86,919 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008. This 29% increase is primarily attributable to Telco infrastructure and related costs associated with growth in the Company’s Sfax product of $30,518 and higher contract developer costs of $4,982 partially offset by lower hardware support fees of $4,259 and lower depreciation expense of $5,962.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Continued)
Selling, general and administrative expenses were $809,397 for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 compared to $1,415,500 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008. This 43% decrease in expense was largely attributable to a series of cost reduction actions the Company instituted in mid-2008 that focused on conserving its available cash without sacrificing its revenue growth-related investments. People and people-related expenses decreased approximately $271,400 primarily due to lower salaries and wages of $183,663, lower employee medical insurance costs of $18,430 and lower travel and entertainment expenses of $19,895 resulting from fewer employees in 2009. Human resource consulting fees were $26,350 lower in 2009 due to placement fees paid in 2008 for new employees hired. Penalties and interest on employment taxes owed were $37,236 lower in 2009 due to expense accruals made in 2008. Partially offsetting these lower expenses were increased employment-related tax expense of $14,142, resulting from an accrual in 2009 for additional social security taxes owed primarily for years 2007 and 2008. Stock compensation expense was $216,573 lower in 2009 due to fewer stock options vesting in 2009 coupled with the fact that a significant portion of the stock options granted in 2008 vested immediately, requiring 100% of the stock compensation to be booked on the day the grants were made. Investor and public relations expenses decreased $51,574 in 2009 as a result of the Company terminating these services in mid-2008. Audit and taxation services expenses decreased $34,939 due to a reduction in the amount of required taxation services and lower costs in 2009 associated with the audit firm’s initial review in 2008 of the SOX 404 internal control compliance documentation. Occupancy costs were $15,712 lower in 2009 resulting from lower property taxes paid after the Company was successful in getting the assessed value of the Company’s property tax base lowered by the property tax authorities. SOX compliance consulting services were $6,923 lower in 2009 due to the non-recurring SOX 404 internal control compliance documentation and related costs incurred in the first quarter of 2008. All other corporate general and administrative expenses were $18,666 lower in 2009. Partially offsetting these lower expenses were higher penalties and interest on sales taxes of $3,600 in 2009 due to a non-recurring credit of $3,500 in the second quarter of 2008 resulting from the refund of a previously required cash payment bond and higher marketing and marketing consulting expenses of $6,116 in 2009.
Other income was $34,017 for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 compared to $11,358 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008. In both periods, the Company had a non-recurring credit for statutory accounts payable adjustments that were made in accordance with the four year statute of limitations allowed for under the state of Texas Civil Practices and Remedies Code (Section 16.004 (a)(3)) totaling $34,017 in 2009 and $10,525 in 2008.
Interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 was $274,481 compared to $709,309 for the same period in 2008. Debt discount amortization in 2009 was $506,112 lower than 2008 as the majority of the debt discount associated with the issuance of notes payable from December 2006 through December 2008 has been amortized, in accordance with the life of the notes. The issuance of notes payable in 2008 and in 2009 coupled with an increase in the stated interest rate on certain portions of the Company’s outstanding debt contributed to an increase in interest expense in 2009 of $73,232 (see Note 3 for additional information).
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Net cash flows used in operating activities for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2009 totaled $664,684. Net cash flows used in operating activities for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2008 was $1,130,375. The decrease was primarily attributable to a series of cost reduction actions the Company instituted in mid-2008 that focused on conserving its available cash without sacrificing its revenue growth-related investments, coupled with the favorable effect of an increase in accrued liabilities.
Cash flows used in investing activities totaled $10,450 and $31,037 for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively, and consisted entirely of capitalized expenditures.
Net cash provided by financing activities was $648,186 for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and consisted of proceeds from the issuance of notes payable, proceeds from related-party advances and proceeds from the sale of the Company’s common stock, partially offset by a partial repayment of a related-party advance. Net cash provided by financing activities was $1,033,500 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 and consisted entirely of proceeds from the issuance of notes payable partially offset by repayment of a note payable.
The Company has limited cash resources and intends to raise additional capital through the issuance of debt or equity in order to sustain operations. The Company believes the additional capital will allow it to continue its marketing efforts in its core products and develop and add new functional enhancements to the browser-based versions of its products. The availability of cash through such resources is not assured and if the Company is not able to raise enough cash, the Company might be forced to limit its operations and marketing activities, or ultimately cease operations.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES (Continued)
The financial statements have been prepared on the assumption that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company sustained a net loss of $944,569 for the nine months ended September 30, 2009. The Company has accumulated losses through September 30, 2009 of $41,302,680 (including a non-recurring loss on early extinguishment of debt totaling $19,030,648 incurred in the fourth quarter of 2006). Cash used in operating activities for the period ended September 30, 2009 aggregated $664,684. Total liabilities at September 30, 2009 of $3,688,600 significantly exceed total assets of $90,035. The Company is unable to meet all of its short-term obligations because of shortages of cash. The Company’s continued existence depends upon the success of management’s efforts to raise additional capital necessary to meet the Company’s obligations as they come due, and to obtain sufficient capital to execute its business plan. The Company intends to obtain capital primarily through issuances of debt or equity. There can be no degree of assurance that the Company will be successful in completing additional financing transactions. Failure to generate additional revenues, raise additional capital or manage discretionary spending could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern and to achieve its intended business objectives. The accompanying unaudited financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or classification of liabilities which may result from the inability of the Company to continue as a going concern.
CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS
From October 1, 2008 through January 31, 2009 the Company issued $200,000 in 8% related-party notes payable initially due December 31, 2009 and these notes had attached shares of the Company’s common stock totaling 200,000 shares in accordance with the terms and conditions of the New Notes (see Note 3 for additional information related to the New Notes).
Effective February 1, 2009 the Company made an offer to the holders of the New Notes, representing a total of $300,000 in principal amount outstanding, including $200,000 to related parties, to convert the New Notes to shares of the Company’s common stock at a rate of one share of common stock to be issued for each $0.10 in principal amount converted for a total of up to 3,000,000 shares of common stock to be issued, including 2,000,000 to be issued to the related parties (the “Offer”). On February 1, 2009, the date of the Offer, the holders of the New Notes, twelve note holders in total, of whom six were classified as related parties (on February 1, 2009), owned 59.5% of the outstanding common stock of the Company. As of March 4, 2009, the Company had received signed consents from the twelve New Note holders consenting to the conversion offer representing the entire $300,000 in principal amount outstanding (including $200,000 to related parties). The Company accounted for this conversion of New Notes into 3,000,000 shares of common stock (2,000,000 shares issued to related parties) as a capital contribution by the twelve note holders, who owned 59.5% of the outstanding common stock of the Company on the Offer date, February 1, 2009 and who owned 72.1% of the outstanding common stock of the Company on March 31, 2009.

The Notes and the related accrued interest originally matured between December 2008 and May 2009; however, the Offer included a one-year extension of the maturity date of the Notes. In exchange for agreeing to the one-year extension the Note holders were offered an increased interest rate from 6% to 7.5% during the extension period, a re-pricing of the stock purchase warrants sold in connection with the Notes from $5.00 per share to $2.50 per share, and the Offer granted the Note holders the right, exercisable at their sole discretion, to receive common stock at a price of $1.50 per share in lieu of accrued interest at the extended maturity date (representing a total of up to 26,380 related party shares of common stock to be issued). As of September 30, 2008 the Company had received written consents to the Offer from Note holders representing the entire $638,000 in principal amount ($262,000 to related parties) of notes outstanding.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PRODCECURES
(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our Securities Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, as ours are designed to do, and management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.
As of September 30, 2009, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Principal Financial Officer, who as of June 5, 2009 is also serving as our Interim Principal Executive Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Based upon that evaluation, our Principal Financial Officer who is also serving as our Interim Principal Executive Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective in enabling us to record, process, summarize and report information required to be included in our periodic SEC filings within the required time period.
(b) Changes in Internal Controls
On June 8, 2009 the Company filed a current report on Form 8-K, dated June 5, 2009, that it had terminated its Chief Executive Officer, who was also a member of the Board of Directors. Concurrent with the termination, the Chief Executive Officer immediately resigned as a member of the Board of Directors. Upon termination of its Chief Executive Officer, the Board of Directors immediately appointed its Chief Financial Officer to serve in the additional capacity of interim Chief Executive Officer. We believe that the termination of our Chief Executive Officer and the resulting appointment of our Chief Financial Officer as our interim Chief Executive Officer resulted in no material changes in internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. We continue to rely on the members of the Board of Directors to provide assurance that our entity-level controls remain effective and we believe that in light of the departure of our Chief Executive Officer our process-level controls remain effective.

On March 7, 2008, the Company received a letter from an attorney for an investor demanding payment on a promissory note issued in 2004 with a principal balance of $63,500. Another party has advised the Company that it is the legal owner of the promissory note. No legal action has been commenced and the Company is attempting to resolve the matter between the parties. As of the date of this filing the matter has not been resolved between the two parties. The promissory note has been carried on the Company’s books as a liability and management does not believe that the outcome of this matter will have a material effect on the Company’s financial position, operating results or cash flows. However, there can be no assurance that any legal proceeding that develops as a result of this matter will not have a material adverse impact on the Company’s liquidity.
On September 2, 2009 the Company received a “Notice of Claim and Conference” (the “Notice”) from the Labor Commissioner, State of California, regarding a wage claim filed by Dennis J. Nasto, plaintiff against SecureCare Technologies, Inc., defendant. Mr. Nasto served as CEO of the Company and a member of the Board of Directors of the Company from October 2006 through June, 2009 when he was terminated. Mr. Nasto filed a wage claim with the State of California for six months of deferred wages, totaling $30,000. In his wage claim, Mr. Nasto also alleges additional wages due as a penalty at the rate of $692 per day until paid, but not to exceed thirty days, for a total of $20,769. The deferred wages of $30,000 for which Mr. Nasto is seeking payment, are fully accrued for and included in accrued payroll in the accompanying balance sheet at September 30, 2009. The additional wages, alleged by Mr. Nasto in his wage claim, due as a penalty, totaling $20,769 have not been accrued for at September 30, 2009. The Company does not believe, after a review of the applicable rules and regulations that it is probable that these additional wages will be awarded to Mr. Nasto. In addition, as of the date of this filing, the Company has received additional written communications from Mr. Nasto to the effect that he is interested in pursing other non-administrative avenues related to the settlement of his wage claim.
