Spescom Software Inc, formerly Altris Software, Inc., (the “Company”) was founded and incorporated as a California corporation in 1981 and is headquartered in San Diego, California with an international sales and support subsidiary in London, United Kingdom. Our principal executive office is located at 10052 Mesa Ridge Court, Suite 100, San Diego, California, 92121. Our telephone number at that address is (858) 625-3000. Our website address is www.spescomsoftware.com. Our annual reports on Form 10-K, our quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, our current reports on Form 8-K and any amendments to those reports filed or furnished pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 can be accessed, free of charge, at our website as soon as reasonably practicable after they are electronically filed with or furnished to the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The Company develops, markets and supports eB™, its integrated suite of collaborative document, configuration and records management software solutions. The eB suite enables organizations in a broad range of industries to create, capture, store, manage, share and distribute critical business information regarding their customers, products, assets and processes in an efficient manner. The eB suite also enables them to maintain complete, up-to-date information about the configuration of their products, assets and infrastructures so that they can achieve operational excellence and compliance with regulatory requirements. eB provides the capabilities of an Enterprise Content Management (ECM)/Electronic Document Management (EDM) System, but extends these capabilities by also managing the “things’ that the content/documents relate to such as products, assets, functions, processes, requirements, projects, organizations, locations, work orders, etc. As a result, eB can be used to manage the lifecycle of physical items (e.g., products, equipment or assets), and the requirements (e.g., functional, safety, performance, environmental, etc.) that govern them. It enables intelligent relationships to be defined between these items thereby creating an interdependency model. As a result, the effects of any change on requirements, documents and items can be determined and change can be managed to effectively ensure information integrity. In particular, eB eB enables organizations with extensive and complex physical infrastructures to efficiently identify, classify, structure, link, and manage documents, physical items, and requirements throughout their lifecycles and ensure that conformance between these is maintained by means of an automated change process.

eB’s integration of document, configuration and records management functionality onto a single platform is a major differentiator and significant competitive advantage that allows the Company to address the information management needs of an enterprise in a more holistic manner than solutions provided by other vendors. In addition, eB provides interoperability and scalability across and beyond an enterprise, deployment over the web, and quick, cost-effective “out-of-the-box” implementation. Finally, the product’s full

In addition, eB provides interoperability and scalability across and beyond an enterprise, deployment over the web, and quick, cost-effective “out-of-the-box” implementation. Finally, the product’s full functionality is available via a set of application programming interfaces (“API’s”) that enable the rapid definition and deployment of customer specific solutions and integration with other business applications, including enterprise resource planning (“ERP”), maintenance management, and project management products.

History

In the 1980’s, the Company and a handful of other pioneering companies set out to provide a better alternative for managing documents electronically. In the mid 1990’s the Company acquired two of those other companies, Optigraphics Corp., and Trimco Ltd. that were recognized for their product excellence and vision. As a combined entity, the Company became a leading developer of enterprise document management solutions. In 2000, the Company acquired the rights to certain configuration management technology and skills from Spescom Ltd., which at the same time acquired a controlling interest in the Company. Due to this unique combination of document and configuration management technologies and skills, the Company began doing business as Spescom Software Inc. on October 1, 2001.

As of September 30, ~~2005~~2006 Spescom Ltd. ~~owned~~by ~~51%~~virtue of ~~the~~its ~~outstanding~~ownership ~~shares~~ of ~~the~~common ~~Company~~stock onand aSeries ~~fully~~F ~~diluted~~Preferred ~~basis~~Stock ~~including~~controlled ~~the~~56% ~~shares issuable upon conversion~~ of the outstanding voting shares of the Company~~’s Series F Preferred Stock held by Spescom Ltd~~.

A timeline summary of equity transactions between the Company and Spescom Ltd. follows:

1999

The Company sold 3,428,571 shares of its common stock to Spescom Ltd. for $2,300,000 in cash. In addition, the Company sold a 60% interest in ASL, its United Kingdom subsidiary, for an additional $1,000,000. At the end of 1999 Spescom Ltd. purchased the Company’s subordinated debt and Series E Preferred Stock held by a third party. Under the terms of the debt and preferred stock, Spescom Ltd. had the right to convert the debt and preferred stock into common stock at $1.90 per share which equated to 3,226,841 shares of common stock.

2000

In April 2000 the Company sold 5,284,714 shares of its common stock to Spescom Ltd. for $3,700,000. Also, the Company agreed to convert its subordinated debt and Series E Preferred Stock held by Spescom Ltd. into 9,528,096 shares of common stock—an effective conversion rate of $.70 per share. The Company also transferred its remaining interest in ASL to Spescom Ltd. for no consideration. In September 2000 the Company changed its year end from December 31 to September 30 to coincide with Spescom Ltd.’s year end.

2001

In October 2000 Spescom Ltd. contributed certain assets and liabilities of its United Kingdom subsidiary (formerly ASL) to the Company for 550,000 shares of common stock of the Company.

2002

In 2002 Spescom Ltd. loaned working capital to the Company under promissory notes secured by all of the assets of the Company.

2003

In September 2003 the Company agreed to convert $5,292,000 of the $5,791,000 owed to Spescom Ltd. into shares of the Company’s Series F Preferred Stock. The Series F Preferred Stock is convertible into the Company’s common stock based upon a conversion rate of $.45 per share (subject to certain adjustments set forth in the related Certificate of Determination for the Series F Preferred Stock), which equates to 11,757,778 shares of common stock.

2004

In November 2003 the Company issued a note payable to Spescom UK with a principal balance of $600,000 which was repaid in full during fiscal 2004.

2005

In November 2004 the Company completed a financing arrangement whereby the Company issued 2,200 shares of Series G Convertible Preferred Stock along with 2,750,000 common stock warrants for gross proceeds of $2,200,000. During fiscal 2005, 750 shares of this preferred stock was converted into 2,428,000 shares of common stock. Subsequent to the end of fiscal 2005, in October 2005 the Company completed the first closing of another financing whereby the Company issued 1,950 shares of Series H Convertible Preferred Stock in exchange for $500,000 and the remaining 1,450 shares of Series G Convertible Preferred Stock. As a result of these financing activities,

2006

In fiscal 2006, the Company completed two preferred stock financings, the net aggregate result of which was the Company’s issuance of 2,450 shares of Series I Convertible Preferred Stock along with 1,851,852 common stock warrants, its receipt of cash consideration of $1,000,000 and its cancellation of the remaining 1,450 shares of Series G Convertible Preferred Stock. As a result of these financing activities, Spescom Ltd.’s ownership of the Company on a fully diluted basis including the shares issuable upon conversion of the shares of the Company’s Series F Convertible Preferred Stock held by Spescom Ltd is now less than 50%. Spescom Ltd.,

Spescom Ltd.’s ownership of the Company on a fully diluted basis including the shares issuable upon conversion of the shares of the Company’s Series F Convertible Preferred Stock held by Spescom Ltd is now less than 50%. Spescom Ltd., however, by virtue of its ownership of common stock and Series F Convertible Preferred Stock, is currently entitled to 56% of the total number of votes eligible to be cast in the election of directors.

Industry Background

In today’s marketplace, organizations are increasingly looking for better ways to help manage their business information and processes. Most companies are overwhelmed by the amount and variety of information generated by their suppliers, customers, employees and partners and by the rate at which change occurs in their operations. As a result, organizations are seeking computer-based information management solutions that enable them to improve productivity, reduce costs, react quickly to changes in their marketplace, improve customer service or comply with stringent regulatory and quality certification requirements.

Enterprise information can be broadly divided into two categories:

i) Structured information stored in a database regarding, for example, customers, suppliers, products and transactions. This data is readily manipulated by a computer application to achieve a specified business objective, for example, general accounting, manufacturing planning, inventory control, purchasing, asset management, personnel management. Most enterprise software applications including for example, Enterprise Resource Planning (“ERP”), Customer Relationship Management (“CRM”), Supply Chain Management (“SCM”), and Product Lifecycle Management (“PLM”), solely use this category of information.

ii) Unstructured information generated by software for personal computers and workstations, such as word processing documents, spreadsheets and computer-aided design (“CAD”) drawings, as well as other types of information which may or may not be in electronic format, such as manufacturing procedures, maintenance records, training and technical manuals, facility layouts, blueprints, product and parts drawings, specifications, schematics, invoices, checks and other business records, presentation graphics, photos, audio and video clips and facsimile documents. The majority of corporate information is in an unstructured format and is growing at an exponential rate straining an enterprise’s ability to ~~efficiently,~~ efficiently access, process and communicate that information.

Whatever the format and wherever the location, unstructured data represents information that is essential to a company’s business and forms a key part of its intellectual capital. In today’s competitive marketplace, companies need the ability to leverage their intellectual capital; however, limitations on a company’s ability to access, process and communicate this information has restrained the productivity of businesses at both the individual and team levels. Without an effective means of obtaining business information, employees are often forced to re-create information from scratch, duplicating effort and increasing the potential for error. In addition, professionals often spend a significant amount of their time locating information rather than engaging in higher-value activities. Additional complexity results where information must be accessed and revised by collaborative teams dispersed throughout and beyond an enterprise that may operate different desktop software and computers. The lack of effective tools for communicating and sharing information and for automating the business logic makes this process even more time-consuming, inefficient and error-prone.

A further factor that is increasingly impacting business is that of information integrity. Due to the dynamic business environment, enterprises are being stretched to the limit to manage change effectively. The result of rapid change is a reduction in enterprise information integrity and an inevitable decrease in operational efficiency, safety, customer service, regulatory compliance and profitability. Independent research by the Institute of Configuration Management (ICM) based in Phoenix, Arizona has determined that a reduction of only 8% in information integrity results in a 50% reduction in operational effectiveness.

In recent years, enterprises have become keenly aware of the need to secure and protect their corporate information as its loss could threaten the ongoing operations of the business. The need to not only provide secured access to information but also implement effective disaster recovery plans is of utmost importance. Stringent regulatory requirements as a result of the Enron and other financial fiascos have also forced enterprise to re-examine and improve their information and records management policies and systems.

To address some of the above issues, Electronic Document Management Systems (EDMS) were developed in the late 1990’s to enable enterprises to effectively and efficiently manage, share and distribute critical business information contained in documents. An EDMS solution is often viewed by organizations as part of their information systems’ re-engineering, and as a result there are several significant issues they typically consider when evaluating an EDMS solution. Such issues include scalability of the system, the ability to integrate with existing structural databases and applications, deployment over the web, the price of the system, the ability to view multiple document formats, the level and cost of integration services required, the impact of the system on network bandwidth, integration with existing business processes, the ability to control document security, the ability to operate on existing computing infrastructure and with existing applications, the system architecture and the ability to handle large and complex data types and to customize the product to the client’s particular needs. In addition, organizations also consider user related issues such as the ability to search, retrieve, view, and edit data in a controlled manner and associate unstructured and structured data to company assets.

More recently EDMSs have evolved to Enterprise Content Management (ECM) systems that not only capture, manage and deliver document content but manage all types of content within an enterprise including email, web content, digital assets (video, voice, pictures) and forms.

A further category of software used to manage information about an enterprise’s products and/or assets includes Product Data Management (PDM), Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) and Enterprise Asset Management (EAM) applications. These applications typically enable all the component parts comprising a product or an asset/plant and all associated information to be identified, structured and managed throughout their lifecycles. PDM and PLM applications are mainly used to manage information regarding discrete products especially during the design and manufacturing phases. EAM applications typically are used to maintain a complex asset/plant throughout its operational life cycle.

While all of the above categories of products create, organize, and track data, they do little to ensure the integrity or relevance of the information they manage. A new category of products called Enterprise Information Management (EIM) is emerging that add this level knowledge. The Company sees itself as being an early entrant in this category.

The Company’s Strategic Positioning

The Company has leveraged ~~document/content~~its ~~management~~historic ~~technology~~domain knowledge and developed bytechnology built on the ~~Company~~modern Microsoft .NET framework that encompasses many of the features of an ECM and PLM ~~integrated~~system. These features have been uniquely combined and enhanced with the ~~configuration~~ability ~~management~~to ~~technology~~relate ~~developed~~all byrelevant ~~Spescom~~and interdependent ~~Ltd.~~information ~~provides~~ together providing an ~~extremely~~EIM ~~powerful~~solution ideal for maintaining the information integrity necessary for compliance needs across many industries and business needs.

The combined document and configuration management capabilities of the Company’s eB software suite enables it to provide full IDM functionality together with PDM functionality at price points that satisfy a broad range of user needs. It enables the management of all unstructured information (documents/content) as well as structured information (product/asset/process) on a single platform, thereby enabling change to be managed across both environments.

Competition

The market for the Company’s products is intensely competitive, subject to rapid change and significantly affected by new product introductions and other market activities of industry participants. The Company currently encounters competition from a number of public and private companies, including Electronic Document Management Systems/Enterprise Content vendors such as EMC (formerly Documentum), IBM/FileNet, ~~OpenText, Sword~~ and OpenText/Hummingbird; Enterprise Asset ~~Management~~ Management vendors such as Indus and IBM(MRO/Maximo); and to a lesser extent Product ~~Data~~ Data Management/Product Lifecycle Management vendors such as ~~Matrix I~~UGS, PTC and ~~EDS~~Dassault(Matrix One). Many of these direct competitors have significantly greater financial, technical, marketing and other resources than the Company. The Company also expects that direct competition will increase as a result of ~~recent~~ recent consolidation in the software industry.

The Company also faces indirect competition from systems integrators and value added resellers (“VARs”). The Company relies on a number of systems consulting and systems integration firms for implementation and other customer support services, as well as for recommendation of its products to potential purchasers.

The Company believes that the principal competitive factors affecting its market include system features such as scalability of the system, the ability to integrate and compliment existing applications such as other EDMS, EAM and PDM, the ability to provide integrated document, configuration and records management capability, the price of the system, the level and cost of integration required, the impact of the system on network bandwidth, integration with existing business processes, the ability to operate on existing computing infrastructure and with existing applications, the system architecture and the ability to handle large and complex data types and to customize products to the client’s needs. In addition, organizations also consider features such as the ability to search, retrieve, view, annotate and edit data in a controlled manner.

The Company’s Solution

~~Challenges~~The Company’s solutions are for regulated organizations with vast quantities of ~~Document~~interdependent documents that need to be managed and ~~Change~~controlled through their lifecycle. Customers are generally focused on meeting regulatory compliance requirements and reducing business risk while optimizing process efficiency to lower the cost of operations and compliance. The Company’s product “eB” is n Enterprise Information Management solution that vastly improves the integrity, visibility and access to all relevant information at the time it is needed. The eB product is unlike document and records management solutions that collect and archive documents for search and retrieval and lack document control capabilities such as IBM/FileNET or EMC/Documentum. The solution ensures the integrity of the controlled information, and uniquely connects information objects with relevant assets, people, processes, projects and functions to create a framework for rapid access to accurate information in context.

Organizations operating in complex, asset intensive industries — utility, transportation, government and public sector, process manufacturing, pharmaceuticals and telecommunications — are increasingly required to meet the conflicting challenges to:Technology

In addition, these organizations are expected to manage these challenges in an environment of continuous change throughout their asset and process lifecycles.

Current Solutions

To effectively address these challenges, organizations must efficiently manage information and change within their organizations to remain competitive. Consequently, companies have invested in, and in fact, built their organizations and processes on and around “enterprise software platforms”. Solution providers use core functions to build “functional” applications to improve the process of a particular product phase or functional department. For example, PDM solutions focus on the creation of product definition information and include authoring and analysis tools for mechanical, electrical and software design (e.g., CAD/CAM, CAE, EDA, and CASE). ERP solutions traditionally deal with the product/asset production lifecycle. SCM, which is primarily focused on ordering and procurement logistics, begins at the front end of the product/asset lifecycle. Once products are deployed in the field, CRM solutions are used to help manage the customer relationship and EAM solutions are used to maintain the product/asset throughout its operational phase. In addition, EDMSs or ECM systems are deployed to support these applications and manage all documents and content created and used within the enterprise. These various enterprise solutions have become a strategic business initiative and competitive necessity of most businesses.

Limitations of Enterprise Solutions

In spite of these investments, organizations still experience major problems due to the unavailability of quality information. To achieve adequate information quality, organizations need a process that ensures that the correct information is documented and available when and where it is needed, and in the appropriate format and context for the user. The impact of poor information management on operational efficiency is clear.

This lack of quality information and its ensuing detrimental effects are caused primarily by the deployment of solutions that do not adequately relate documentation to the appropriate assets. For instance, organizations deploy document management solutions on the one hand, and product, plant, and process management solutions on the other. However, neither product effectively provides a change management system that links documents, assets, and requirements – capabilities that would enable organizations to effectively manage configurations of equipment and assets in complex, regulated environments.

Existing enterprise systems fail to address the real needs of many organizations for a variety of reasons:

• In general, enterprise applications are all separate, largely independent systems with their own data models and functions. With the cost of integrating and customizing these applications typically exceeding the software license costs by a factor ranging from 3 to 7 times, companies utilizing these systems often fail to achieve the full benefit of their investment.

• A second major issue is that of managing change across the enterprise. Information about a product, asset or process typically resides in a number of applications and data stores. When a change is made to the product, asset or process, it is very difficult if not impossible to predict the impact of this change across all the applications and ensure that the effect of the change is implemented and reflected everywhere throughout the various systems. The result is a reduction in enterprise information integrity and a substantial reduction in resource effectiveness.

• Traditional document (EDMS) and content management solutions (ECM) only address one element of this problem. They do a good job of capturing, managing, storing, distributing and presenting documents/content for enterprise use; however, they do so in isolation as they do not capture or manage requirements nor do they capture and manage data about the assets, products or processes. The context that gives meaning to information is lost as classification and indexing is usually limited to a fixed set of attributes. Also, although they securely store information and provide revision and version control, they do not effectively manage the full effects of change within an enterprise. This results in a significant reduction of information integrity as information no longer accurately reflects the status of the requirements or assets that it relates to.

• Although traditional PDM solutions capture both product/asset data and associated information contained in documents, they tend to focus on the needs of users during the product design and manufacturing phases of a product/asset with limited or no support for the operation and maintenance of the product/asset. Also, incomplete interfaces between PDM environments and other document environments may not reliably reflect changes in the other, particularly if document or product data updates must be performed.

• Maintenance and EAM solutions capture and manage assets and associated information but again do so for the specific purposes of maintenance and inventory control. They do not capture requirements nor do they effectively manage change and ensure the integrity of information. They typically only provide limited document management capabilities.

• Finally, while some ERP solutions offer maintenance management and/or PDM capabilities, these tend to be add-on modules to their core financial, manufacturing and HR functions. They do not manage requirements, do not have a strong document and change management capability, and the linkage between documents and assets/products is limited or non-existent.

Market Opportunity: Information Integration and Synchronization

As enterprise solutions are deployed within a company’s process environment, information tends to become localized within the enterprise platform making it difficult for users to access, obtain and share relevant information across widely distributed functional and geographic boundaries. Ultimately, the enterprise solutions employed by a business fall short of addressing the enterprise’s complete need for close coordination and communication that accurately relate the intellectual assets, physical assets, and resources.

Businesses today need to deploy rational strategies that best harness the capabilities and core functions of each enterprise platform to optimize product development, production and deployment activities. Although solution providers promote communication among the various operating enterprise solutions, their approach is neither comprehensive nor do they adequately address the critical business requirements of configuration management, change management and requirements management. This is the critical market niche that the Company fills with its eB software solution.

The eB Solution

The Company’s eB suite is a set of software technologies that support, improve and enable collaboration among legacy enterprise solutions, and enables the efficient capture, management and distribution of all types of information across an enterprise. This integrated document, configuration and records management suite breaks down information barriers inherent to enterprise solutions and provides users with:

1. Rapid access to information

• Provides availability of information from existing enterprise solutions

2. Accurate information

• Ensures information integrity in a rapidly changing environment

3. Information that is in context to what the user is working on

• Transforms information into knowledge

Differentiators Defining the Niche

Enterprises continue to struggle with the complex business problem of ensuring that conformance is maintained between:

• Design requirements (what is REQUIRED to be there)

• Actual asset configuration (what is ACTUALLY there), and

• Asset configuration information found in documents, drawings, etc. (what the documentation SAYS is there).

To ensure that information integrity is maintained between the requirements for an item/asset, the information about the item/asset (usually contained in a document) and the item/asset itself, it is necessary to first identify the requirements, the information/documents and the item/asset. Then a process must be implemented to ensure that a change to the requirements, the information/document or the item/asset is reflected in all three. The inability to do this using document/content management and/or maintenance management tools is increasingly being realized by leading enterprises as a major cause of operational inefficiency and is creating the opportunity for the Company to penetrate these accounts.

The Company’s Unique Solution Addresses the Niche

The Company’s integrated document, configuration and records management (iDCR) solutions enable all requirements (design, safety, environmental, etc.), all documents, structured and unstructured, within an enterprise (including office documents, emails, CAD drawings, images, voice and computer print outs), and all data on products, assets, processes, projects and people to be captured, identified and inter-linked. This results in a unified and structured view of all enterprise information and promotes rapid access to relevant information by

authorized users in context to their tasks and functions. eB’s collaborative workspace environment provides an automated closed-loop change management process that ensures information integrity throughout the enterprise and compliance with legal, regulatory, corporate, audit and quality requirements.

The Company’s Products

The Company’s flagship product eB is ~~the~~a ~~first~~ fully integrated Enterprise Information Management suite that includes collaborative document, configuration and records management software. ~~suite~~The ~~that~~eB product enables the efficient capture, management and distribution of all types of information across an enterprise.

The functionality of eB consists of a core platform that contains functionality usually provided by multiple applications in a single fully integrated environment. This includes:

•· Document/content management

•· Imaging

•· Workflow

•· ~~Computer~~Item ~~Output to Laser Disc (COLD/ERM)~~management

•· ~~Item~~Requirements management

•· ~~Requirements~~Change management

•· ~~Change~~ Records management

• Records management

• Collaborative workspace management

This core functionality is exposed via a comprehensive set of application program interfaces available as a toolkit to enable rapid application development and easy integration with other software products.

eB provides a collaborative environment for managing both unstructured and structured enterprise information. In addition, it not only provides a hub to connect other applications to each, but also identifies and controls key information with the goal of ensuring its integrity.

eB enables documents/content, as well as physical items (products, equipment or assets) and requirements (e.g., functional, safety, environmental) to be identified, classified, structured, linked and managed throughout their life-cycles. It is designed to ensure that conformance between these is maintained by means of an automated change process.

It provides the capabilities of a document management suite but goes beyond this by also providing the capability to manage items and link documents to items and requirements. It then applies industry standard configuration management rules to control the effects of change on both documents and items in order to achieve information integrity.

The records management functions of eB support the enterprise to achieve compliance with legal, regulatory, corporate, audit and quality requirements regarding declaration, archiving and disposition of enterprise records.

Multiple ways of accessing eB are provided from standard out-of-the-box interfaces as well as integrations with other business applications. Standard integrations with office, email, CAD and Geographic Information Systems (GIS) applications enable users to work from within these desktop environments, yet seamlessly access the full functionality of eB. Full access is also provided over the Internet using standard web browsers enabling global collaboration and access to information anytime, anywhere to authorized users. Any one or all of the components of eB can be deployed, depending on a customer’s specific requirements.

In December 2006, the Company announced the ability of eB to manage the integrity of documents stored in a Microsoft Office 2007 Server (SharePoint), making it even easier to deploy eB solutions within an enterprise.

This integrated solution provides enterprises with many benefits, including:

1. A single system for all document, data, records and process orientated functions across an enterprise that simplifies maintenance for administrators and IT staff.

2. A single point of entry for users, which reduces the cost of training and eliminates the need for users to know or care where documents and other information resides.

3. A broad range of functionality that addresses the needs of many different users throughout an organization, thereby maximizing the investment.

4. Rapid deployment using standard “out-of-the-box” interfaces and applications resulting in a fast return on investment.

5. A single point of contact and support for the technology, which results in potentially fewer problems with software upgrades, than might otherwise be encountered in systems that use products from multiple vendors.

6. Reduced integration effort compared to implementing “best-of-breed” systems using technologies from multiple vendors — an approach that requires learning multiple programming interfaces in an attempt to integrate unrelated products.

7. Rapid application development and simplified integration with other critical systems such as ERP applications using the powerful eB ~~Business~~Software ~~Objects~~Development ~~API toolkit~~Kit.

Strategy

Business Model

The Company is building its business strategies around ~~two~~three core strengths:

~~• First, the~~· Expertise ~~Company’s software~~ and ~~related~~a ~~services~~large ~~solve~~customer ~~critical~~base ~~and recurring problems for companies operating~~ in ~~complex,~~the ~~asset-intensive~~Nuclear ~~industries.~~industry

~~• Second, the~~· A ~~Company’s~~large ~~software~~customer ~~solutions~~base ~~have~~in ~~clear~~applications ~~and~~within ~~significant~~local ~~architectural advantages~~governments ~~that~~— ~~enable~~mainly ~~the Company to offer high value solutions to the Company’s~~where ~~users~~some asform ~~well~~of asregulatory ~~distinguish~~compliance ~~itself~~is ~~from its competitors~~required.

· The inherently broad application set the eB product can handle when combined with the Microsoft SharePoint product.

To capitalize on these strengths, the Company has instituted the strategic initiatives listed below. We believe that these initiatives will enhance the Company’s ability to achieve a defensible, leading market position within its growing market niche.

Strategic Initiatives

• · Continue to Develop and Position eB as a Critical but Complementary Enterprise Platform. Rather than position and market eB as a stand-alone, mutually exclusive enterprise suite, the Company will continue to promote eB as an essential, high value, high functionality niche platform that complements, rather than supplants, existing/legacy solutions. By positioning eB in this less threatening manner, the Company not only minimizes repetitive and costly “head-to-head” evaluations with competitors having significantly greater resources, but also enables the conversion of its “competitors” into “partners”.

• · Continue Investment in the Company’s Direct Sales Force. The Company currently employs a dual sales model comprised of both a direct sales force and select partners and re-sellers. Vertical markets targeted by the Company’s direct sales force are those: (1) in which the Company has market domain expertise, and (2) that have a a limited number of end-user customers that can be effectively penetrated and profitably served by its relatively small sales force. The direct sales force will focus on core market verticals where we can leverage our vertical expertise.

• · Form product strategic partnering agreements to be able to provide more enhanced solutions. The ~~Integration~~Company will continue its efforts to develop integrations/~~interconnection~~interconnections with already established software market leaders.

• · Enter New Markets Through ~~Increased~~ Increased Investment in and Expansion of Strategic Partnerships. To ~~expand~~ expand into new markets, the Company seeks to increase its key strategic ~~relationships~~ relationships with dominant players in market verticals,, system integrators and channel partners having significantly greater resources and immediate access to customers. Because of the Company’s positioning of eB as a complementary rather than replacement or standalone solution, the Company is well positioned to create win-win relationships with its direct/indirect competitors. Ultimately, the end-users benefit with higher value solutions that truly address their critical information requirements. Properly implemented, we believe this strategy affords the Company new, relatively immediate, incremental, high margin revenues with substantially reduced investment. However, for this strategy to be successful, the Company must allocate resources for the additional demands placed on the Company. In particular, the Company must invest in: (1) product development to assure eB integrates easily with those of the expanding partner network, and (2) sales, marketing and customer support resources to train, coordinate, and support a growing partnership network and base of end-users.

• · Outsource Non-Core Operations. The Company plans to continue its program of outsourcing non-core service functions. Services presently outsourced include on-site implementation and integration using partners in selected regions and markets. The Company plans to expand these functions to include other regions and markets.. Through careful partner and supplier selection and program coordination, monitoring and implementation, the Company is better positioned to:

i) Allocate its resources to its critical, core functions,

ii) Focus on the delivery of higher margin services and products such as system design services and solution products, and

108

iii) Leverage these partners market position, thus providing increase sales opportunity and customer penetration.

The Company plans to increase the awareness and credibility of the Company and the eB suite within its vertical markets, with its partners, and within the investment and technology analyst communities. To heighten the profile of the Company in its customer markets, the Company has engaged its “Strategic Customer Focus Program” and has plans to engage technology analysts including Gartner and Doculabs to prepare industry reports which provide data on the Company’s position in the market, establish validity of new markets and analyze the Company’s solutions vis-à-vis its competitors. In addition, the Company plans to increase its attendance and participation in industry conferences, trade shows and seminars.by:

• Grow revenues by:

i) Leveraging senior business development executives with extensive market contacts within each of the Company’s targeted vertical markets in the US and UK/Europe. In addition, the Company plans to allocate additional resources to support these key persons with adequate staffs and budgets to leverage their effect in the market.

ii) Leveraging existing user groups to increase the number of licensed seats and/or number of software modules. This is intended to not only increase software sales but also enhance the recurring revenue stream the Company realizes from annual software maintenance contracts. In addition, the Company will target conversion of legacy ~~Altris~~ software seats into eB.

iii) Applying resources to expand horizontally or vertically to new user groups, departments or subsidiaries within existing markets

iv) Leverage partnerships into new markets

Customers

The Company is primarily active in markets characterized by customers that have extensive assets and infrastructures that need to be managed throughout their life cycles. The target markets specifically include:

•· Utilities (power, water and gas)

•· Transportation (air, rail and sea)

•· Public Sector/Local Government

Enterprises within these markets are highly regulated and operate extensive and complex assets and infrastructures that form the foundation for the products and services they provide to their customers and for generating revenues. For example, rail transportation companies operate a complex rail network including tracks, signaling, electrification, etc. and utilities or public sector enterprises operate power, water or gas distribution networks.

The following are examples of customers who are using the Company’s products:

Utilities. Within the utilities industry, countless documents relating to plant management, facility maintenance and support, transmittal processing and tracking and statutory compliance must be current and readily available at all times. Furthermore, with pending deregulation, utilities are under increasing pressure to minimize their costs. The Company has installed information management solutions at utilities around the world and today provides the core Configuration Management product of numerous utilities and has dominated certain applications functions.

Transportation. In the rail transportation segment, countless documents relating to scheduling, structures, track and signaling must be current and readily available at all times. For example, one of the world’s oldest and largest public transportation systems had more than 3,000,000 maintenance and safety documents stored on aperture cards and microfiche, and manual handling processes were straining efficient operation. The Company’s information management solution now enables users quick access to all documents on-line, including the documents described above as well as accounts payable and invoice records, internal letters and memoranda and other business records, with additional search, optical character recognition (“OCR”) and e-mail functionality. Today, the system can be accessed and operated by over 1,500 individual users who can retrieve critical business information whenever necessary on a near-instantaneous basis, thereby enabling this public transportation system to better ensure regulatory compliance.

Public Sector / Local Government. Local authorities constantly face the challenges of complying with safety, environmental and fiscal regulations. Many of these organizations have used eB to control their documents and data needed to support these business processes in a highly efficient manner. As an example, a major US metropolitan utilities district has adopted eB as its standard throughout the city and county, and has made extensive use of the interfaces with its Permit Tracking and Geographical Information Systems (GIS). Geo-spatial data is of utmost importance to the safety and security programs currently being developed by all metropolitan authorities. It allows them to accurately identify buildings, powerplants and other structures of high risk, and integrate all available data (e.g. building and evacuation plans, fire surveys, threat assessments) into police, fire and rapid response systems. eB’s ability to store this information and make it available in context to geographical location, forms a critical components of a solution for safety and security in local government.

A small number of customers has typically accounted for a large percentage of the Company’s annual revenues. In fiscal 2005 Network Rail accounted for 16% of revenues. In fiscal 2004 Network Rail and Constellation Energy Group accounted for 23% and 15%, respectively of revenues while Network Rail accounted for 19% of revenue for fiscal 2003. The Company’s reliance on relatively few customers could have a material adverse effect on the results of its operations on a quarterly basis.9

~~For~~A ~~this~~small ~~reason~~number of ~~alternatives~~customers ~~“to~~has ~~market~~typically ~~avenues”~~accounted ~~are~~for ~~being~~a ~~pursued~~large ~~with~~percentage ~~strategic~~of ~~partners~~the Company’s annual revenues.

For this reason, alternatives “to market avenues” are being pursued with strategic partners. It is a defined objective of the Company to substantially grow our partnering relationships in markets where we are not directly active.

Sales and Marketing

Direct sales

The Company focuses its direct sales force on select vertical markets with compelling business needs for the Company’s information management solutions. The Company has established a strong market presence in those chosen verticals both domestically and internationally. The Company’s strategy is to continue its direct sales and marketing to increase its market penetration in these verticals. As of September 30, 2005, the Company’s sales and marketing organization consisted of 11 employees, 8 based in the U.S. and 3 based in the UK. The Company’s field sales force regularly conducts presentations and demonstrations of the Company’s suite of products to management and users at customer sites as part of the direct sales effort. Sales cycles for the Company’s products generally last from six to twelve months.

Indirect distribution channels

Although the Company has historically generated the majority of its revenues from its direct sales force, the Company has also established a network of third-party VARs, system ~~integrators~~ integrators and OEMs who build and sell systems (with components or complete systems provided by the Company) that address specific customer needs within various vertical markets, including those targeted directly by the Company. Sales through indirect channels amounted to $~~507~~796,000 or 911%, $~~471~~507,000 or 59% and $~~214~~471,000 or 35% of total sales for fiscal years ~~2005~~2006, ~~2004~~ 2005 and ~~2003~~2004, respectively.

The Company’s strategy is to further grow and develop its VAR, systems integrator and OEM channels which are primarily targeted at the industries and geographic regions not covered by its direct sales force in order to reach the broadest customer base. The VARs and systems integrators are an integral part of the Company’s distribution strategy as they are responsible for identifying potential end-users, selling the Company’s products to end-users as part of a complete hardware and software solution, customizing and integrating the Company’s products at the end-user’s site and supporting the end-user following the sale.

The Company is seeking to establish and/or expand its relationships with vendors that supply complimentary technologies, including EAM vendors such as Indus and MRO/Maximo, ECM vendors such as EMC (formerly Documentum), GIS vendors such as ESRI and CAD vendors such as AutoDesk and Bentley as well as large multinationals such as Siemens.

Customers, VARs, systems integrators and OEMs may not continue to purchase the Company’s products. The failure by the Company to maintain its existing relationships, or to establish new relationships in the future, could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition.

Services and Support

The Company believes that a high level of services and support are critical to its performance. As a result, the Company maintains a telephone hotline service to provide technical assistance and software support directly to its end-users on an as-needed basis. The Company also provides technical support, maintenance, training and consulting to its VARs, systems integrators and OEMs, which in turn provide technical support services directly to end-users. These services are designed to increase end-user satisfaction, provide feedback to the Company as to end-users’ demands and requirements and generate recurring revenue. The Company provides much of its maintenance activities through its eSupport website which enables customers and partners to obtain support on a self-service basis. The Company plans to continue to expand its support programs as the depth and breadth of the products offered by the Company increase.

VARs, Systems Integrators and OEM support

The Company employs pre-sales, technical support personnel that work directly with VARs, systems integrators and OEMs to provide responses to technical sales inquiries. The Company also offers educational and training programs, as well as customized consulting services to its VARs, systems integrators and OEMs. Fees for training and consulting services are generally charged on a per diem basis. The Company also provides product information bulletins on an ongoing basis, including bulletins posted through its Internet web site and through periodic informational updates about the products installed. These bulletins generally answer commonly asked questions and provide information about new product features.

Technical Support and Software Maintenance

The Company, in conjunction with its VARs and systems integrators, offers end-users a software maintenance program that includes software updates provided by the Company to end-users and technical support provided by the VARs and systems integrators. ~~Telephone~~ consultation is provided by the Company to VARs and systems integrators in response to end-user questions that VARs and systems integrators are unable to answer. VARs and systems integrators typically charge end-users a fee for maintenance and support of the entire EDMS and imaging system, including software and hardware. In turn, the Company charges VARs and systems integrators an annual fee based upon a percentage of the original purchase price of the licensed software.

In turn, the Company charges VARs and systems integrators an annual fee based upon a percentage of the original purchase price of the licensed software.

The Company generally includes a 90-day limited warranty with software licenses. During the warranty period, end-users are entitled to corrections for documented program errors. The services provided during the warranty period may be extended by the end-user entering into the Company’s software maintenance program.

Product Development

The Company’s product development efforts are focused on providing customers with the most technologically advanced solutions for their document, configuration and records management needs. The Company believes that the marketplace is rapidly moving towards demanding that all corporate information, structured and unstructured, simple and complex, be managed in a consistent and controlled manner. Customers are requiring integrated solutions that address critical information management issues in a holistic manner, that can be implemented quickly and provide a rapid ROI. This trend demands that greater functionality is provided “out-of-the-box” thereby reducing the need for multiple products from different vendors and the associated integration and support costs. It also demands that products work across technology platforms, across the web, business processes and geographic locations to provide real-time information management with integrated document/content, records and configuration management capabilities.

The Company intends to continue to extend its position as a technology leader in developing and marketing EIM solutions that include integrated document, configuration and records management solutions. The Company intends to do this by continuing to enhance the features and functionality of its eB product suite using industry best practices, customer input and feedback and current technologies, including tools to allow users to tailor the look and feel of the product, administrative tools to enable systems operators to easily setup and make changes to the system and add tighter integration with other third party enterprise products. Through this enhanced functionality and integration the Company’s products can provide even faster deployment and greater management control of enterprise information. The Company also plans to introduce new products and product extensions which are complementary to its existing suite of products and which address both existing and emerging market needs.

During ~~2005~~2006, the Company ~~released~~developed a major update to eB 14 which is the Company’s flagship platform based on the Microsoft .NET architecture. This platform has over two years of proven production use in high-volume / high-usage environments. Existing customers continue to migrate to eB Version 14, generating service revenue and new ~~license~~ ~~opportunities. The~~feature ~~Company expects~~set that ~~the~~enable ~~migration~~it ~~of existing customers will take place over the next 12~~ to 24bring ~~months. In~~EIM ~~2005,~~features ~~the eB product was certified by the Institute of Configuration Management,~~ to bean ~~compliant~~existing ~~with~~Microsoft ~~their~~SharePoint ~~CMII standard~~installation. ~~The~~This ~~Company~~technology will continue to ~~enhance~~be ~~its records~~enhanced ~~management~~and ~~capabilities~~refined toduring ~~fully comply with Department of Defense records management standard 5015~~2007.2.

Backlog and Current Contracts

The Company’s contract backlog consists of the aggregate anticipated revenues remaining to be earned at a given time from the uncompleted portions of its existing contracts. It ~~does~~ does not include revenues that may be earned if customers exercise options to ~~make~~ make additional purchases. At September 30, ~~2005~~2006, the Company’s contract backlog was $4,~~355~~244,000, as compared to $24,~~599~~355,000 at September 30, ~~2004~~2005. The Company expects a majority of the September 30, 2006 backlog to be substantially completed in fiscal 2007. The amount of contract backlog is not necessarily indicative of future contract revenues because short-term contracts, modifications to or terminations of present contracts and production delays can provide additional revenues or reduce anticipated revenues. The Company’s backlog is typically subject to large variations from time to time when new contracts are awarded. Consequently, it is difficult to make meaningful comparisons of backlog.

The Company’s backlog is typically subject to large variations from time to time when new contracts are awarded. Consequently, it is difficult to make meaningful comparisons of backlog.

The Company’s contracts with its customers generally contain provisions permitting termination at any time at the convenience of the customer (or the U.S. Government if the Company is awarded a subcontract under a prime contract with the U.S. Government), upon payment of costs incurred plus a reasonable profit on the goods and services provided prior to termination. To the extent the Company deals directly or through prime contractors with the U.S. Government or other governmental sources, it is subject to the business risk of changes in governmental appropriations. In order to reduce the risks inherent in competing for business with the U.S. Government, the Company has directed its government contracts marketing efforts toward teaming with large corporations, who typically have existing government contracts, can alleviate the cash flow burdens often imposed by government contracts and have more extensive experience in and resources for administering government contracts. The Company does not have any contractual arrangements regarding such joint marketing efforts. In the past, such efforts have been pursued when deemed appropriate by the Company and such corporations in response to opportunities for jointly providing systems or services to potential government agency customers.

Patents and Technology

The Company’s success is dependent in part upon proprietary technology. The Company owns certain U.S. and foreign patents covering certain aspects of its document management systems technology, including two patents that enable large format drawings to be rapidly downloaded and viewed over low speed communication links. The Company also owns a patent on technology to allow edit users to make changes to documents without having to specify whether they are working on raster or vector data and a patent for a reviser capability that allows users to modify ~~and~~ and store drawing changes in raster and vector format for subsequent review of ~~the~~ ~~original document and each sequential revision.~~the

original document and each sequential revision.

Employees

As of September 30, ~~2005~~2006, the Company had 3833 full-time employees, of whom 78 were engaged in product development, 1611 in customer support, implementation and application engineering activities, 118 in sales and marketing and 46 in administration. The Company also utilizes consultants for specific projects. None of the Company’s employees is represented by a labor union. The Company has not experienced work stoppages and believes its relationship with its employees is good. Competition for qualified personnel in the industry in which the Company competes is intense and the Company expects that such competition will continue for the foreseeable future. The Company ~~has~~had an incentive stock option plan which expired March 31, 2006 which was used for granting options to ~~employees~~ employees as a means of attracting and keeping key individuals. The Company believes that its future success will depend, in large measure, on its ability to continue to attract, hire and retain qualified employees and consultants.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

Because of the following factors, as well as other variables affecting our operating results and financial condition, past performance may not be a reliable indicator of future performance, and historical trends should not be used to anticipate results or trends in future periods.

The Company has a history of significant losses. If we do not sustain profitability, our financial condition and stock price could suffer.

The Company has a history of losses and may incur losses in the foreseeable future. We incurred net losses of $62,~~049~~376,000, $~~223~~6,049,000 and $3223,~~004,~~000 for the fiscal ~~2005~~years 2006, ~~2004~~ 2005 and ~~2003~~2004, respectively. As of September 30, ~~2005~~2006, our ~~accumulated~~ accumulated deficit was $9092,~~291~~313,000. If revenues do not reach the levels the Company anticipates, or if operating expenses exceed the Company’s expectations, the Company may not be able to achieve or sustain profitability in the near future or at all. If the Company is unable to achieve and sustain ~~profitability~~ profitability at satisfactory levels, its financial condition and stock price could be materially adversely affected.

The Company will be controlled by Spescom Ltd. and its subsidiaries as long as they are entitled to a majority of the votes eligible to be cast in the election of directors.

As of ~~January 4~~December 19, ~~2005,~~ 2006, Spescom Ltd. (together with its subsidiaries), by virtue of its ownership of of common stock and Series F Preferred Stock, was entitled to 27,408,249, or or 56%, of the total number of votes eligible to be cast in the election of directors. Spescom Ltd. therefore currently has the ability to elect a majority of the Company’s board of directors and to remove the entire board of directors, with or without cause, without calling a special meeting. Moreover, even if the above-referenced percentage were to drop below 50%, it is likely that Spescom Ltd. would have sufficient votes to retain control of the Company. As a result, Spescom Ltd. will likely continue to control all matters affecting the Company, including, but not limited to:

• · the composition of the Company’s board of directors and, through it, any determination with respect to the Company’s business direction and policies, including the appointment and removal of officers;

14· the allocation of business opportunities that may be suitable for the Company and Spescom Ltd.;

~~• the~~· any ~~allocation~~determinations ofwith ~~business~~respect ~~opportunities~~to ~~that~~mergers ~~may~~or beother ~~suitable~~business ~~for~~combinations ~~the Company and~~or ~~Spescom~~extraordinary ~~Ltd.~~transactions;

~~• any~~· the ~~determinations~~Company’s ~~with~~acquisition ~~respect to mergers~~ or ~~other~~disposition ~~business~~of ~~combinations or extraordinary transactions~~assets; and

• · the Company’s ~~acquisition or disposition of assets; and~~financing.

• the Company’s financing.

Spescom Ltd. is not prohibited from selling a controlling interest in us to a third party.

Notwithstanding the foregoing discussion, if certain affiliates of M.A.G. Capital, LLC become entitled to elect a majority of the authorized directors, as discussed below, Spescom Ltd. would cease to control the Company. Spescom Ltd., however, would continue to exert significant influence over matters other than the election of directors for which shareholder approval is required under applicable law, such as certain types of mergers and other business combinations.

~~One~~Monarch orPointe ~~more~~Fund, ~~affiliates~~Ltd. and its affiliate Mercator ofMomentum ~~M.A.G.~~Fund ~~Capital~~III, ~~LLC,~~ as holders of Series HI Convertible Preferred Stock, may become entitled to elect a majority of the Board of Directors ~~if certain corporate transactions do not occur on or before April 30, 2006~~.

~~Under~~The ~~the~~ Certificate of Determination for the Series H I Convertible Preferred Stock provides that, if the Company has not entered into a binding agreement to consummate a consolidation, merger, or certain other corporate transactions meeting certain requirements on or before April 30, 2006, the holders of Series H I Preferred Stock may, by a two-thirds vote not later than ~~June~~December 3031, 2006, elect to have all of the outstanding Series HI Preferred Stock redeemed by the Company at an amount equal to $1,000 per share plus all declared ~~but unpaid dividends. If such election is made and the Company does~~ ~~not have sufficient funds to carry out the redemption, the holders of Series H Preferred Stock as a class will be entitled to elect a majority of the authorized directors of the Company.~~

There are currently 1,950 shares of Series H Preferred Stock outstanding, all held by Monarch Pointe Fund, Ltd. (“Monarch”), an affiliate of M.A.G. Capital, LLC (“MAG”). Under the terms of the Series H Preferred Stock private placement, the Company has agreed to sell 500 additional shares of Series H Preferred Stock to one or more of Monarch, Mercator Momentum Fund, L.P., or Momentum Fund III, L.P., each an affiliate of MAG, at a second closing to occur on or before January 20, 2006. In the event that a corporate transaction of the variety discussed in the preceding paragraph does not occur on or before April 30, 2006 and an election for redemption by the holders of Series H Preferred Stock is made, the redemption price is anticipated to be $1,950,000 or $2,450,000, depending on whether an additional 500 shares have been issued in the prospective second closing, plus all declared but unpaid dividends. In the event of such an election, unless the Company is able to raise additional debt or equity funds, the Company anticipates that it would not have sufficient funds to carry out the redemption. If the Company were able to raise additional funds, it is likely that existing shareholders would suffer additional substantial dilution. If the election to redeem the Series H Preferred Stock is made and the Company is unable to pay the redemption price, those MAG affiliates holding Series H Preferred Stock would become entitled to elect a majority of the authorized directors of the Company. In this event, those entities, through their majority control of the Board of Directors, would be able to control or (with respect to matters requiring shareholder approval) exert significant influence over all matters affecting the Company, including:12

~~• any~~but ~~determination with~~unpaid ~~respect~~dividends. If tosuch election is made and the Company’s ~~business~~does ~~direction~~not ~~and~~have sufficient ~~policies,~~funds ~~including~~to carry out the redemption, the holders of Series I ~~appointment~~Preferred ~~and~~Stock ~~removal~~as a class will be entitled to elect a majority of ~~officers;~~the authorized directors of the Company.

• There are currently 2,450 shares of Series I Preferred Stock outstanding, which are held by Monarch Pointe Fund, Ltd. (“Monarch”) and its affiliate Mercator Momentum Fund III, L.P. (“MMF”), each an affiliate of M.A.G. Capital, LLC (“MAG”). A corporate transaction of the ~~allocation~~variety discussed in the preceding paragraph did not occur on or before April 30, 2006. Monarch and MMF are therefore entitled to elect to have all of ~~business~~the outstanding Series I Preferred Stock redeemed as ~~opportunities~~discussed ~~that~~in ~~may~~the preceding paragraph. If such election is made prior to December 31, 2006, the redemption price is anticipated to be ~~suitable~~$2,450,000, ~~for~~plus all declared but unpaid dividends. In the event of such election, unless the Company is able to raise additional debt or equity funds, the Company anticipates that it would not have sufficient funds to carry out the redemption. If the Company were able to raise additional funds, it is likely that existing shareholders would suffer additional substantial dilution. If the election to redeem the Series I Preferred Stock is made and ~~Spescom~~the ~~Ltd~~Company is unable to pay the redemption price, Monarch and MMF would become entitled to elect a majority of the authorized directors of the Company.; In this event, those entities, through their majority control of the Board of Directors, would be able to control or (with respect to matters requiring shareholder approval) exert significant influence over all matters affecting the Company, including:

Upon a liquidation of the Company, sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets, or merger of the Company, the Company’s preferred shareholders would be entitled to receive substantial payments prior to any distribution to the common shareholders.

Upon a liquidation of the Company, the holders of Series F Convertible Preferred Stock would be entitled to receive, prior to any distribution to the holders of common stock, an aggregate amount equal to $5,291,000 plus accrued but unpaid dividends per share and interest on all such dividends, which as of November 30, 2006 totaled $943,000. Upon a liquidation of the Company, sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets, or merger of the Company, prior to any distribution or payment of merger consideration to the holders of common stock, the holders of Series I Convertible Preferred Stock would be entitled to receive an aggregate amount equal to the higher of (i) $2,450,000 plus declared but unpaid dividends per share, which as of November 30, 2006 totaled $46,000 and (ii) the amount such holders would be entitled to receive had such holders’ shares of Series I Preferred Stock been converted into shares of common stock immediately prior to the liquidation, sale of assets or merger in accordance with the terms of the Series I Preferred Stock.

The Company has borrowed funds from Spescom Ltd., which debts are secured by all of the Company’s assets, and the Company may become insolvent if repayment of such debt is due prior to the Company’s ability to obtain funds to repay such debt or if the Company fails to restructure such debt.

At September 30, ~~2005,~~ 2006, the Company owed, including accrued but unpaid interest, an aggregate amount of $~~615~~680,000 to Spescom Ltd. Interest accrues on such debt at an ~~annual~~ annual interest rate of 10%, and such debt is secured by a security interest in ~~favor~~ favor of Spescom Ltd. on all of the Company’s assets.

If the Company is unable to generate sufficient cash flow from its operations, secure funds from the capital markets or lenders or restructure its debt to Spescom Ltd., the Company will become insolvent.

15The Company will likely not be able to rely on Spescom Ltd. to fund its future capital requirements, and financing from other sources may not be available on favorable terms or at all.

The Company believes its capital requirements will vary greatly from quarter to quarter, depending on, among other things, capital expenditures, fluctuations in its operating results, financing activities, and investments and third party products and receivables management. The Company’s future liquidity will depend on its ability to generate new system sales of its eB product suite in the near term, which cannot be assured. Failure to generate sufficient system sales to meet the Company’s cash flow needs can be expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, results of operations, and financial condition. Management believes that the Company’s current cash and receivables, as well as additional cash that may be generated from operations, will be sufficient to meet its short-term needs for working capital. However, the Company may not be able to obtain sufficient orders to enable the Company to continue on a cash flow break-even level, which would be necessary to continue operations in the absence of further financing. Future equity financings would be dilutive to the existing holders of the Company’s common stock. Future debt financings could involve restrictive covenants.13

expenditures, fluctuations in its operating results, financing activities, and investments and third party products and receivables management. The Company’s future liquidity will depend on its ability to generate new system sales of its e B product suite in the near term, which cannot be assured. Failure to generate sufficient system sales to meet the Company’s cash flow needs can be expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, results of operations, and financial condition. Management believes that the Company’s current cash and receivables, as well as additional cash that may be generated from operations, will be sufficient to meet its short-term needs for working capital. However, the Company may not be able to obtain sufficient orders to enable the Company to achieve a sustained break-even level of cash flow, which would be necessary to continue operations in the absence of further financing. Future equity financings would be dilutive to the existing holders of the Company’s common stock. Future debt financings could involve restrictive covenants. Moreover, the Company may not be able to attract equity or debt financing at all.

The Company is dependent on sales to a relatively small number of new customers each quarter, so any failure to close a sale to any customer could have a material adverse effect on its quarterly operating results.

A small number of customers has typically accounted, and will continue in the future to account, for a large percentage of the Company’s annual revenues. Constellation Energy Group accounted for 13% of revenue for fiscal 2006. Network Rail accounted 16% of the Company’s revenues in fiscal 2005. Network Rail and Constellation Energy Group accounted for 23% and 15%, respectively, of revenues ~~for fiscal 2004 while~~ ~~Network Rail accounted~~ for ~~19% of revenue for~~ fiscal ~~2003~~2004. Because of the Company’s reliance on sales to relatively few customers, the loss of any sale could have a material adverse effect on the results of its operations on any given quarter. Additionally, a significant portion of the Company’s revenues has historically been, and is expected in the future to be, derived from the sale of systems to new customers. The Company generally incurs significant marketing and sales expense prior to entering into a contract with a new customer that generates revenues. The length of time it takes to establish a new customer ~~relationship~~ relationship typically ranges from 6 to 12 months. As such, the Company may incur significant expenses associated with its sales efforts directed to prospective customers in any particular period before any associated revenues stream begins. If the Company is not successful at obtaining significant new customers or if a small number of customers cancel or delay their orders for its products, then its business and its prospects could be harmed which may cause the price of the Company’s common stock to decline.

The Company has granted a source code license in the eB product suite to Aveva Solutions Limited and could face competition from the offering by that company or one of its sublicensees of products with substantially the same functionality as the eB product suite.

On October 2, 2006, the Company entered into a $2 million licensing contract with an engineering IT solutions and services company, Aveva Solutions Limited (“AVEVA”), by which the Company granted to AVEVA a non-exclusive perpetual license to use and sublicense (subject to certain restrictions described below) the technology underlying the Company’s eB product suite, including the source code of the eB product suite. However, prior to October 2, 2007, AVEVA may not actively offer a product that includes substantial functionality from the eB product suite to specified customers of the Company, which comprise substantially all of the Company’s customers. In addition, prior to March 31, 2008, AVEVA may not (1) sublicense the source code of the eB product suite or any derivative of it (except to third party contractors under limited circumstances) or (2) sublicense the eB product suite or any derivative of it when such technology is not included with other products (except to existing customers of AVEVA’s parent company, Aveva Group plc, and certain of its affiliates). Nevertheless, subject to the foregoing restrictions, AVEVA or a party to whom AVEVA grants a sublicense could offer products using the Company’s source code and providing substantially the same functionality as the eB product suite, which could have a material adverse impact on the Company’s business, results of operations, and financial condition. The Company is not aware, however, that AVEVA has undertaken or intends to undertake any activities using the licensed technology that are in direct competition with the Company’s business. Furthermore, the Company believes, based on communications with AVEVA, that AVEVA intends to use the licensed technology only in products designed for use in and offered to business segments that the Company does not currently serve or intend to serve.

The Company’s operating results are difficult to predict and fluctuate substantially from quarter to quarter and year to year, which may increase the difficulty of financial planning and forecasting and may result in declines in the Company’s stock price.

The Company’s future operating results may vary from the Company’s past operating results, are difficult to predict and may vary from year to year due to a number of factors. Many of these factors are beyond the Company’s control. These factors include:

• · the potential delay in recognizing revenue from license transactions due to revenue recognition rules which the Company must follow;

• · the tendency to realize a substantial amount of revenue in the last weeks, or even days, of each quarter due to the tendency of some of the Company’s customers to wait until quarter or year end in the hope of obtaining more favorable terms;

• · customer decisions to delay implementation of the Company’s products;

• · the size and complexity of the Company’s license transactions;

~~• any seasonality of technology purchases;~~14

~~• demand~~· any ~~for~~seasonality ~~the~~of ~~Company’s~~technology ~~products, which can fluctuate significantly~~purchases;

~~• the~~· demand ~~timing~~for ofthe ~~new~~Company’s ~~product~~products, ~~introductions~~which ~~and~~can ~~product~~fluctuate ~~enhancements by both the Company and its competitors~~significantly;

~~• changes~~· the intiming ~~the~~of new product introductions and product enhancements by both the Company’s ~~pricing~~and ~~policy~~its competitors;

16· changes in the Company’s pricing policy;

• · the publication of opinions concerning us, the Company’s products or technology by ~~industry~~ industry analysts;

• · changes in foreign currency exchange rates; and

• · domestic and international economic and political conditions.

One or more of these factors may cause the Company’s operating expenses to be disproportionately high or the Company’s gross revenues to be disproportionately low during any given period, which could cause the Company’s net revenue and operating results to fluctuate significantly. The Company’s operating results have fluctuated significantly in the past. You should not rely on the Company’s annual operating results to predict its future results because of the significant fluctuations to which the Company’s results are subject.

As a result of these and other factors, operating results for any fiscal year are subject to significant variation, and the Company believes that period-to-period comparisons of its results of operations are not necessarily meaningful in terms of their relation to future performance. You should not rely upon these comparisons as indications of future performance. It is likely that the Company’s future quarterly and annual operating results from time to time will not meet the expectations of public market analysts or investors, which could cause a drop in the price of its common stock.

The Company’s market is subject to rapid technological change and if the Company fails to continually enhance its products and services in a timely manner, its revenue and business would be harmed.

The Company must continue to enhance and improve the performance, functionality and reliability of its products and services in a timely manner. The software industry is characterized by rapid technological change, changes in user requirements and preferences, frequent new product and services introductions embodying new technologies, and the emergence of new industry standards and practices that could render the Company’s products and services obsolete. The Company has experienced product development delays in the past, and may experience delays in the future. The Company’s failure to continually enhance its products and services in a timely manner would adversely impact its business and prospects. In the past, the Company has also discovered that some of its customers desire additional performance and functionality not currently offered by its products. The Company’s success will depend, in part, on its ability to internally develop and license leading technologies to enhance its existing products and services, to develop new products and services that address the increasingly sophisticated and varied needs of its customers, and to respond to technological advances and emerging industry standards and practices on a cost-effective and timely basis. The Company’s product development efforts with respect to its eB product suite are expected to continue to require substantial investments by the Company, and the Company may not have sufficient resources to make the necessary investments. If the Company is unable to adapt its products and services to changing market conditions, customer requirements or emerging industry standards, it may not be able to maintain or increase its revenue and expand its business.

The Company’s lack of product diversification means that any decline in price or demand for its products and services would seriously harm its business.

The eB product suite and related services have accounted for substantially all of the Company’s revenue and this situation is expected to continue for the foreseeable future. Consequently, a decline in the price of, or demand for, the eB product suite or related services, or their failure to achieve broad market acceptance, would seriously harm the Company’s business.

Significant unauthorized use of the Company’s products would result in material loss of potential revenues and the Company’s pursuit of protection for its intellectual property rights could result in substantial costs to it.

The Company’s software is licensed to customers under license agreements containing provisions prohibiting the unauthorized use, copying and transfer of the licensed program. Policing unauthorized use of the Company’s products is difficult and, while the Company is unable to determine the extent to which piracy of its software products exists, any significant piracy of its products could materially and adversely affect the Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition. In addition, the laws of some foreign countries do not protect the Company’s proprietary rights to as great an extent as do the laws of the United States and the Company’s means of protecting its proprietary rights may not be adequate.

The Company relies on third party software products incorporated in its products. Any loss of use to such third party software could result in delays in the Company’s product shipments.

The Company relies on certain software that it licenses from third parties, including software that is integrated with internally developed software and used in the Company’s products to perform key functions. There can be no assurances that the developers of such software will remain in business, that they will continue to support their products, that their products will otherwise continue to be available to the Company on commercially reasonable terms or that their products are free from bugs or defects. The loss of or inability to maintain any of these software licenses could result in delays or reductions in product shipments until equivalent software can be developed, identified, licensed and integrated, which could adversely affect the Company’s business, operating results and financial condition.

If third parties claim that the Company infringes on their patents, trademarks, or other intellectual property rights, it may result in costly litigation or require the Company to make royalty payments.

The Company is not aware that any of its software products infringe the proprietary rights of third parties. There can be no assurance, however, that third parties will not claim infringement by the Company with respect to its current or future products. The Company expects that software product developers will increasingly be subject to infringement claims. Any such claims, with or without merit, could be time-consuming, result in costly litigation, cause product shipment delays, consume significant management time or require the Company to enter into royalty or licensing agreements. Such royalty or licensing agreements, if required, may not be available on terms acceptable to the Company or at all, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition.

The Company may face product liability claims from its customers.

The Company’s license agreements with its customers usually contain provisions designed to limit its exposure to potential product liability claims. It is possible, however, that the limitation of liability provisions contained in the Company’s license agreements may not be effective under the laws of some jurisdictions. A successful product liability claim brought against the Company could result in payment by the Company of substantial damages, which would harm its business, operating results and financial condition and cause the price of its common stock to fall.

If the Company loses key personnel, or is unable to attract and retain additional key personnel, the Company may not be able to successfully grow and manage its business.

The Company believes that its future success will depend upon its ability to attract and retain its key technical and management personnel. These employees are not subject to employment contracts. The Company may not be successful in retaining its key employees in the future or in attracting and assimilating replacement or additional key personnel. Any failure in retaining and attracting management personnel may impair its ability to rapidly grow and manage its business.

The Company faces intense competition from several competitors and may be unable to compete successfully.

The market for the Company’s products is intensely competitive, subject to rapid change and significantly affected by new product introductions and other market activities of industry participants. The Company currently encounters competition from a number of public and private companies, including Electronic Document Management System/Enterprise Content Management vendors such as EMC (formerly Documentum), FileNet, OpenText, Sword and Hummingbird; Enterprise Asset Management vendors such as Indus and MRO/Maximo; and to a lesser extent Product Data Management/Product Lifecycle Management vendors such as Matrix I, PTC and EDS. Many of these direct competitors have significantly greater financial, technical, marketing and other resources than the Company. The Company also expects that direct competition will increase as a result of recent consolidation in the software industry.

The Company also faces indirect competition from systems integrators and VARs. The Company relies on a number of systems consulting and systems integration firms for implementation and other customer support services, as well as for recommendation of its products to potential purchasers. Although the Company seeks to maintain close relationships with these service providers, many of these third parties have similar, and often more established, relationships with the Company’s principal competitors. If the Company were unable to develop and retain effective, long-term relationships with these third parties, the Company’s competitive position would be materially and adversely affected. Further, these third parties may market software products in competition with the Company in the future and may otherwise reduce or discontinue their relationship with, or support of, the Company and its products.

In addition, database vendors, such as Oracle, IBM and Microsoft are potential competitors in the future if they acquire competitive technology or otherwise expand their current product offerings. Like the Company’s current competitors, these companies have longer operating histories, significantly greater financial, technical, marketing and other resources and name recognition and a larger installed base of customers than the Company. Several of these companies, including Oracle, Microsoft, IBM and others, have well-established relationships with the Company’s current and potential customers and strategic partners, as well as extensive resources and knowledge of the enterprise software industry that may enable them to offer a single-vendor solution more ~~easily~~ easily than the Company can. In addition, the Company’s competitors may be able to respond more quickly to new or emerging technologies and changes in ~~customer~~ customer requirements, or to devote greater resources to the development, promotion and sale of their products than the Company can. If the Company ~~cannot~~ cannot respond to its competitors adequately and in a timely manner, then it may be required to reduce prices for its products and could suffer reduced ~~gross~~ gross margins and loss of market share, any of which could harm its business, prospects, financial condition and operating results, causing the price of its common stock to decline. In addition, the Company’s past financial losses and customer uncertainty regarding the Company’s financial condition are likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s ability to sell its products in the future against competitors.

financial condition and operating results, causing the price of its common stock to decline. In addition, the Company’s past financial losses and customer uncertainty regarding the Company’s financial condition are likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s ability to sell its products in the future against competitors.

The Company’s common stock is deemed to be “penny stock,” which may make it more difficult for investors to sell their shares due to suitability requirements.

The Company’s common stock is deemed to be “penny stock” as that term is defined in Rule 3a51-1 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. These requirements may reduce the potential market for the Company’s common stock by reducing the number of potential investors. This may make it more difficult for investors in the Company’s common stock to sell shares to third parties or to otherwise dispose of them. This could cause the Company’s stock price to decline. Penny stock is stock:

• · With a a price of less than $5.00 per share;

• · That is not traded on a “recognized” national exchange;

• · Whose prices are not quoted on the NASDAQ automated quotation system (NASDAQ listed stock must still have a price of not less than $5.00 per share); or

• · In issuers with net tangible assets less than or equal to $2.0 million (if ~~the~~ the issuer has been in continuous operation for at least three years) or $5.0 million (if in continuous operation for less than three years), or with average revenues of less than $6.0 million for the last three years.

Broker/dealers dealing in penny stocks are required to provide potential investors with a document disclosing the risks of penny stock. Moreover, broker/dealers are required to determine whether an investment in a penny stock is a suitable investment for a prospective investor.

The Company’s common stock trades sporadically; the market price of the Company’s common stock may be volatile.

The Company’s common stock currently trades sporadically on the OTC Bulletin Board. The market for the Company’s common stock may continue to be an inactive market, and the market price of the Company’s common stock may experience significant volatility. The Company’s quarterly results, failure to meet analysts’ expectations, announcements by the Company or its competitors regarding acquisitions or dispositions, loss of existing customers, new industry standards or technology, changes in general conditions in the economy, and general market conditions could cause the market price of the common stock to fluctuate substantially. In addition, the stock market has experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that have particularly affected the trading prices of equity securities of many technology companies. These price and volume fluctuations often have been unrelated to the operating performance of the affected companies.

Conversion of the Company’s preferred stock ~~will~~would result in significant dilution to existing shareholders.

In ~~October 2005 the~~a ~~Company~~private placement completed ~~the~~in ~~first~~March 2006, ~~closing~~the ofCompany ~~a private placement to issue~~issued, in addition to certain warrants, ashares of new Series HI Convertible Preferred Stock , which upon conversion into common stock ~~will~~would result in substantial dilution to ~~common~~ common shareholders. ~~Additional~~ ~~Series H Preferred Stock and warrants may be issued at second closing which is anticipated to occur in January 2006.~~ The number of shares of the Company’s common stock into which the shares of Series H I Preferred Stock may be converted varies based on a volume-weighted measure of the market price of the common stock. ~~and~~The ~~based~~range ~~on the trailing revenues of the~~is ~~last~~from ~~four~~11,666,667 ~~fiscal~~common ~~quarters reported by the Company.

On September 30, 2003, the Company issued 5,291 shares of Series F Preferred Stock with a stated value of $1,000 per share in consideration of the cancellation of $5,291,000 of its debt owed to Spescom Ltd. and its subsidiary. The Series F Preferred Stock is convertible into the Company’s common stock at a stated conversion price of $0.45 per share, subject to certain adjustments to prevent dilution, representing a total of 11,757,778 shares of the Company’s common stock. Such conversion may occur at the option of the holder until September 30, 2008. On that date, any outstanding Series F Preferred Stock not previously converted will be converted automatically. Conversion of the Series F Preferred Stock will result in substantial dilution to common shareholders.

Future sales of common stock by the Company’s shareholders, including investors in future offerings and Spescom Ltd., could adversely affect the Company’s stock price.

AsIn ~~part~~connection ofwith the Series H I Convertible Preferred Stock private placement completed in ~~October~~ March ~~2005~~2006, the Company ~~agreed~~filed ~~to file~~ a registration statement for the common stock of the Company issuable upon conversion of such preferred stock. The registration statement was declared effective By the Securities and Exchange Commission on July 10, 2006. Any sales of these shares of common stock or shares of the Company’s common stock issued in any future offering could cause a decline in the price of the Company’s stock. In addition, Spescom Ltd. holds 27,408,249 shares of the Company’s common stock on a fully diluted basis as of ~~September 30,~~December ~~2005~~19, 2006, and if it sells its shares of the Company from time to time in the future, the Company’s stock price may be adversely affected. Spescom Ltd. also has certain demand and piggyback registration rights relating to 11,757,778 of these ~~theses~~ shares.

The exercise of outstanding options and warrants would result in dilution of the Company’s stock.

19As of September 30, 2006, the Company had outstanding stock options to purchase approximately 4,454,750 shares of common stock and warrants to purchase approximately 6,726,852 shares of common stock. If all or a significant number of the options or warrants are exercised, shareholders could suffer significant dilution.

As of September 30, 2005, the Company had outstanding stock options to purchase approximately 4,856,000 shares of common stock and warrants to purchase approximately 5,492,502 shares of common stock. If all or a significant number of the options are exercised, shareholders could suffer significant dilution.

The Company is subject to significant foreign currency fluctuations which may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business and financial results.

Changes in foreign currency rates, the condition of local economies, and the general volatility of software markets may result in a higher or lower proportion of foreign revenues in the future. Although the Company’s operating and pricing strategies take into account changes in exchange rates over time, future fluctuations in the value of foreign currencies may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, operating results and financial condition.

Beginning in fiscal 2006 under SFAS 123R the Company will begin recording compensation expense in connection with the incentive stock options provided to its employees and directors which may have a significant negative impact on future operating results.

In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS 123R which requires companies to measure all employee stock-based compensation awards using a fair value method and record such expense in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The impact of adoption of SFAS 123R cannot be predicted at this time because it will depend on, among other things, levels of share-based payments granted in the future, the market value of the Company’s common stock as well as assumptions regarding a number of complex variables. These variables include, but are not limited to, the Company’s stock price, volatility, and employee stock option exercise behaviors and the related tax impact. However, the expense recorded in future periods may significantly impact future earnings of the Company.

On September 30, ~~2005,~~ 2006, there were approximately ~~900~~800 holders of record of the Company’s Common ~~Stock~~ Stock and the last sale price of the Common Stock as reported on the OTC ~~Bulletin~~ Bulletin Board on September 30, ~~2005~~2006 was $0.1812 per share.

The Company has never paid a dividend on its Common Stock, and the current policy of its Board of Directors is to retain all earnings to provide funds for the operation and expansion of the Company’s business. Consequently, the Company does not anticipate that it will pay cash dividends on its Common Stock in the foreseeable future.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Overview

The Company develops, markets and supports eB, its integrated suite of collaborative document, configuration and records management software solutions. The eB suite enables organizations in a broad range of industries to create, capture, store, manage, share and distribute critical business information regarding their customers, products, assets and processes in an efficient manner. The eB suite also enables them to maintain complete, up-to-date information about the configuration of their products, assets and infrastructures so that they can achieve operational excellence and compliance with regulatory requirements. eB provides the capabilities of an Enterprise Content Management (ECM)/Electronic Document Management (EDM) System, but extends these capabilities by also managing the “things’ that the content/documents relate to such as products, assets , functions, processes, requirements, projects, organizations, locations, work orders, etc. As a result, eB can be used to manage the lifecycle of physical items (e.g. products, equipment or assets), and the requirements (e.g. functional, safety, performance, environmental, etc.) that govern them. It enables intelligent relationships to be defined between these items thereby creating an interdependency model. As a result, the effects of any change on requirements, documents and items can be determined and change can be managed to effectively ensure information integrity. In particular, eB enables organizations with extensive and complex physical infrastructures to efficiently identify, classify, structure, link, and manage documents, physical items, and requirements throughout their lifecycles and ensure that conformance between these is maintained by means of an automated change process.

We develop, market and support eB, our integrated suite of collaborative document, configuration and records management software solutions. Our revenues in the fiscal year ended September 30, ~~2005~~2006 ~~decreased~~increased by 3520% from the prior fiscal year asprimarily wedue ~~experience~~to ~~delays~~increased ~~in customer~~ license sales ~~orders~~for both ~~from~~ new ~~customer~~ and ~~expansion of systems by~~ existing customers.

Our revenues are derived from licenses of our software to our customers, services that we provide under ~~maintenance~~ maintenance support contracts and our non-maintenance services, consisting primarily of design studies, system implementation and training. Of our total revenues in fiscal ~~2005~~2006, license revenues accounted for 1325%, maintenance services revenues accounted for 5244% and non-maintenance services represented 35 31%.

Many of our customers are located outside the United States, with foreign-originated revenues accounting for 4935% and 4649% of fiscal ~~2005~~2006 and ~~2004~~2005 revenues, respectively. Revenue in fiscal ~~2005~~2006 reflected a foreign currency gain of $7510,000 due to the declining value of the dollar during the year.

While revenues ~~decreased~~increased, our cost of revenues ~~declined~~increased by ~~only 3~~11% in fiscal ~~2005~~2006 compared to fiscal 2005 ~~2004,~~primarily because ~~the~~of higher cost of ~~services~~sales ~~revenue~~for ~~remained relatively unchanged~~licenses. Our ~~gross~~ gross profit ~~decreased~~increased from 7258% to 5862% of revenues in fiscal ~~2005~~2006 due to the ~~decrease~~ increase in high margin software sales. Operating expenses ~~increased~~decreased by 523% primarily as a result of ~~our~~decreased ~~decision to~~marketing ~~expand~~and ~~the~~sales ~~Company’s~~efforts ~~marketing~~in fiscal 2006 and ~~sales~~a reduction ~~efforts~~in personnel in September 2005.

At September 30, ~~2005,~~ 2006, our principal sources of liquidity consisted of $~~285~~95,000 of cash and cash equivalents, compared to $~~109~~285,000 at September 30, ~~2004~~2005. On October 25 31, 2005 and March 10, we2006 we completed a two private placement of preferred stock which resulted in aggregate gross proceeds of $1,000,000. Subsequent to fiscal 2006, we received an initial payment of $~~500~~1,200,000 relating to a large license sale in October 2006, in connection with which the Company expects to receive an additional license and development fee of $800,000. (See Note 13 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further information regarding that license sale.)

This Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation summarizes the significant factors affecting our consolidated operating results, financial condition, liquidity and cash flow during the three-year period ended September 30, ~~2005~~2006, each year therein being referred to as fiscal ~~2005~~2006, fiscal ~~2004~~2005 and fiscal ~~2003~~2004. Unless otherwise indicated, references to any year in this discussion refer to the applicable fiscal year ended September 30. This discussion and analysis should be read ~~with~~ with the consolidated financial statements and financial statement footnotes included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

This discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements due to many factors, including but not limited to those set forth under the headings “Risk Factors” and “Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.”

Critical Accounting Policies

The consolidated financial statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. As such, management is required to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The significant accounting policies which are most critical to aid in fully understanding and evaluating reported financial results include the following:

2321

Revenue Recognition

The Company’s ~~enters into~~revenues ~~contractual~~are ~~arrangements~~derived ~~with~~from ~~end-users~~sales ~~that~~of ~~may~~its ~~include~~document ~~licensing~~and ofconfiguration ~~the~~management systems ~~Company’s~~that ~~software~~are ~~products,~~primarily ~~product~~composed ~~support~~of software and ~~maintenance~~ services, ~~consulting~~ ~~services~~including ormaintenance, training ~~various~~and ~~combinations~~consulting ~~thereof~~services, ~~including~~and ~~the~~third ~~sale~~party ofsoftware ~~such products~~and ~~or services separately~~hardware. ~~The~~ The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Statement of Position (“SOP”) 97-2 “Software Revenue Recognition,” ~~and~~ SOP 98-9, “Modification of SOP 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition, with Respect to Certain Transactions”, ~~and~~ Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 101, updated by SAB’s 103 and 104 “Update of Codification of Staff Accounting Bulletins,” and Emerging Issues Task Force No. 00-21 (“EITF 00-21”) “Accounting for Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables.” Revenue through the Company’s Value Added Resellers (“VARS”) are net of any VAR discount in accordance with EITF 99-19 “Reporting Revenue Gross as a Principal versus Net as an Agent.”

Software license and third party product revenues are recognized upon shipment of the product if no significant vendor obligations remain and collection is probable. In cases where a significant vendor obligation exists, revenue recognition is delayed until such obligation has been satisfied. For new software products where a historical record has not yet been demonstrated that acceptance is perfunctory, the Company defers recognition of revenue until acceptance has occurred. If an undelivered element of the arrangement exists under the license arrangement, a portion of revenue is deferred based on vendor-specific objective evidence (VSOE) of the fair value of the undelivered element until delivery occurs. If VSOE does not exist for all undelivered elements, all revenue is deferred until sufficient evidence exists or all elements have been delivered. Annual maintenance revenues, which consist of ongoing support and product updates, are recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the contract. Payments received in advance of performance of the related service for maintenance contracts are recorded as deferred revenue. Revenues from training and consulting services are recognized when the services are performed and adequate evidence of providing such services is available. Contract revenues for long-term contracts or programs requiring specialized systems are recognized using the percentage-of-completion method of accounting, primarily based on contract labor hours incurred to date compared with total estimated labor hours at completion. Provisions for anticipated contract losses are recognized at the time they become known.

Contracts are billed based on the terms of the contract. There are no retentions in billed contract receivables. Unbilled contract receivables relate to revenues earned but not billed at the end of the period.

The Company considers many factors when applying accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America related to revenue recognition. These factors include, but are not limited to:

• · The actual contractual terms, such as payment terms, delivery dates, and pricing of the various product and service elements of a contract

•· Availability of of products to be delivered

•· Time period over which services are to be performed

•· Creditworthiness of of the customer

•· The complexity of customizations to the Company’s software required by service contracts

•· The sales channel through which the sale is made (direct, VAR, distributor, etc.)

•· Discounts given for each element of a contract

•· Any commitments made as to installation or implementation of “go live” dates.

Each of the relevant factors is analyzed to determine its impact, individually and collectively with other factors, on the revenue to be recognized for any particular contract with a customer. Management is required to make judgments regarding the significance of each factor in applying the revenue recognition standards, as well as whether or not each factor complies with such standards. Any misjudgment or error by management in its evaluation of the factors and the application of the standards, especially with respect to complex or new types of transactions, could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s future operating results.

Software Development Costs and Purchased Software

Software development costs and purchased software are capitalized when technological feasibility and marketability of the related product have been established. Software ~~development~~ development costs incurred solely in connection with a specific contract are charged to cost of revenues. Capitalized software costs are amortized on a product-by-product basis, beginning when the product is available for general release to customers. In 2006 and 2005, the Company capitalized $35,000 and $514,000, respectively, of internal software developments costs. The capitalized software costs relate primary to the eB version 14 product release completed in November 2005 and is the core base product of the Company going forward. Annual amortization expense is calculated using the greater of the ratio of each product’s current gross revenues to the total of current and expected gross revenues or the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of three to ~~four~~five years.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

The Company sells its products directly to end-users, generally requiring a significant up-front payment and remaining terms appropriate for the creditworthiness of the customer. The Company also sells its products to VARs and other software distributors generally under terms appropriate for the creditworthiness of the VAR or distributor. The Company retains no continuing obligations on sales to VARs. Management believes that no significant concentrations of credit risk existed at September 30, 2005. Receivables from customers are generally unsecured. The Company continuously monitors its customer account balances and actively pursues collections on past due

~~balances~~appropriate for the creditworthiness of the customer. The Company also sells its products to VARs and other software distributors generally under terms appropriate for the creditworthiness of the VAR or distributor. The Company retains no continuing obligations on sales to VARs. Management believes that no significant concentrations of credit risk existed at September 30, 2006. Receivables from customers are generally unsecured. The Company continuously monitors its customer account balances and actively pursues collections on past due balances. The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts which is comprised of a general reserve based on historical collections performance plus a specific reserve for certain known customer collections issues. If actual bad debts are greater than the reserves calculated based on historical trends and known customer issues, the Company may be required to book additional bad debt expense which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition for the periods in which such additional expense occurs.

25Share-Based Payments

In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) revised Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (FAS 123R), “Share-Based Payment,” which establishes accounting for share-based awards exchanged for employee services and requires companies to expense the estimated fair value of these awards over the requisite employee service period. On April 14, 2005, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission adopted a new rule amending the effective dates for FAS 123R. In accordance with the new rule, the accounting provisions of FAS 123R were effective for the Company beginning in the quarter ended December 31, 2005.

Under FAS 123R, share-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date, based on the estimated fair value of the award, and is recognized as expense over the employee’s requisite service period. The Company has no awards with market or performance conditions. The Company adopted the provisions of FAS 123R on October 1, 2005, the first day of the Company’s fiscal year 2006, using a modified prospective application, which provides for certain changes to the method for valuing share-based compensation. Under the modified prospective application, prior periods are not revised for comparative purposes. The valuation provisions of FAS 123R apply to new awards and to awards that are outstanding on the effective date and subsequently modified or cancelled. Estimated compensation expense for awards outstanding at the effective date will be recognized over the remaining service period using the compensation cost calculated for pro forma disclosure purposes under FASB Statement No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” (FAS 123).

On November 10, 2005, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position No. FAS 123(R)-3, “Transition Election Related to Accounting for Tax Effects of Share-Based Payment Awards.” The Company has elected to adopt the alternative transition method provided in this FASB Staff Position for calculating the tax effects of share-based compensation pursuant to FAS 123R. The alternative transition method includes a simplified method to establish the beginning balance of the additional paid-in capital pool (APIC pool) related to the tax effects of employee share-based compensation, which is available to absorb tax deficiencies recognized subsequent to the adoption of FAS 123R.

License revenues increased ~~decreased~~by $1.0 million, or 141%, to $1.8 in fiscal 2006 million from $737,000 in fiscal 2005. The increase is due to (1) new customers ordering software systems such as Florida Power and Light for $269,000 and Defense Threat Reduction Agency (a part of the United States Defense Department) for $140,000 and (2) current customers expanding their systems such as Constellation Energy Group who placed sales for $282,000 and JEA for $275,000. License revenues decreased by $3.2 million, or 81%, to $737,000 in fiscal 2005 from $3.9 ~~million~~ in ~~fiscal~~ fiscal 2004. WeThis ~~believe that this~~ decrease is was due to delays in new customers ordering software and current customers expanding their existing systems. We believe these delays were the result of customer concerns regarding budgets and ~~availability~~ availability of internal customer resources. ~~Fiscal~~In fiscal 2004 the Company benefited from three large license sales of which one was to an existing customer, Network Rail, for $1.5 million and two new customers, Constellation Energy Group for $750,000 and City of Las Vegas for $546,000. ~~These large license orders in fiscal 2004 also resulted in an increase of $1,844,000 or 89% in license revenues from $2.1 million to $3.9 million in fiscal 2004 as compared to fiscal 2003.~~

~~Despite~~The ~~the~~Company ~~relatively~~was ~~weak~~successful ~~license~~in ~~revenues~~capitalizing on its pipeline of sales opportunities in ~~fiscal~~2006 resulting ~~2005,~~in wea ~~believe~~substantial ~~that~~increase in license revenues ~~will~~compared to relatively ~~increase~~weak aslicense sales in fiscal 2005. While the Company’s ~~customers~~pipeline ~~move~~of ~~forward~~sales ~~with~~opportunities ~~license~~continues ~~purchases~~to ~~that were~~be ~~delayed~~strong infor ~~fiscal 2005. However~~2007, we ~~expect~~the Company’s license revenues ~~will~~can ~~continue to~~ fluctuate from quarter to quarter, based on the timing of customers orders due to the long sales cycle and changes in in customers’ internal plans for the rollout of software licenses. The length of time it takes to establish new customer relationships typically ranges from 6 to 12 months and as such the ~~timing~~ timing of sales can fluctuate significantly.

26A small number of customers has typically accounted for a large percentage of the Company’s total annual revenues. Constellation Energy Group accounted for 13% of 2006 revenue and Network Rail accounted for 16% of fiscal 2005 revenue, while Network Rail and Constellation Energy Group accounted for 23% and 15%, respectively, of revenues for fiscal 2004. The Company’s reliance on relatively few customers could have a material adverse effect on the results of its operations on a quarterly basis. In an effort to decrease the Company’s dependence on large license orders from individual customers, the Company is focusing on building its network of software resellers to increase its channels to market. In fiscal 2006 revenue through resellers totaled $796,000 or 11% of total revenue versus $507,000 or 9% in fiscal 2005 and $471,000 or 5% in fiscal 2004.

Services and other revenues are comprised of maintenance and non-maintenance services. Non-maintenance services typically relate to design studies, implementation of systems and training which vary with the level of license revenues while maintenance revenue is primarily dependent on customers renewing their annual maintenance support contracts.

~~Service~~Services and other revenues ~~were~~increased ~~relatively~~$143,000 ~~unchanged~~or 3% from $5.1 million in fiscal ~~2004~~2005 to $5.2 million in fiscal ~~2005~~2006.

Non-maintenance services increased ~~slightly~~ as customers continued to utilize the Company’s resources to assist in implementing their systems in new business areas within their company and upgrading from older legacy systems to the current versions of eB. ~~The decrease in maintenance revenue is primarily the result of customers which had been acquired by another entity and therefore did not renew their maintenance.~~

We anticipate that service and other revenue will fluctuate primarily due to fluctuations in sales to new customers, which require more services that typically include a business process study, integration with other business systems and training. In addition, we expect that service and other revenues will continue to fluctuate from quarter to quarter based on the timing of customer orders.

Cost of licenses revenues consists of costs associated with reselling third-party products and amortization of internal software development costs.

Cost of license revenues ~~decreased in absolute dollars but~~ increased ~~as a percentage of license revenues in fiscal 2005 compared to fiscal 2004. The~~ $54118,000, or 2157% ~~decrease was comprised of a $32,000 decrease~~ in ~~software~~ ~~amortization expense as a result of certain software having been fully amortized by~~ fiscal ~~2005~~2006 ~~and a $22,000 decrease in third party software costs due to fewer third party product sales in fiscal 2005 as~~ compared to fiscal ~~2004.

Cost of license revenues decreased in absolute dollars and as a percentage of license revenues in fiscal 2004 compared to fiscal 2003. The $430,000, or 62% decrease was due to a decrease of $374,000 in amortization expense of capitalized software costs as a result of a majority24

27amortization totaling $87,000 and an increase in third party software costs of $31,000 for one customer. However, the gross profit percentage of license revenue increased to 82% in fiscal 2006 from 72% in fiscal 2005 primarily due to the substantial increase in the sales of the Company’s proprietary software during fiscal 2006 while the related costs was only the amortization of the Company’s capitalized software development costs.

This decrease was due to ~~66%~~the infact that fiscal ~~2003~~2005 had a higher portion of third party license revenues to total license revenues.

We expect the cost of license revenues to fluctuate based on customer requirements for third-party software products since these costs have the largest impact on cost of license revenues. We expect the gross profit percentage from license revenues to improve as sales of the Company’s proprietary software ~~are~~become a greater portion of total license revenues in future years.

30In fiscal 2006 the Company received net proceeds totaling $716,000 after offering costs from two preferred stock offerings. On October 25, 2005, the Company entered into a definitive agreement relating to a private placement with Monarch Pointe Fund, Ltd. (“Monarch”) and M.A.G. Capital, LLC (“MAG”). Pursuant to the agreement, on October 25, 2005, the Company issued (1) 1,950 shares of Series H Convertible Preferred Stock to Monarch and (2) warrants, which expire October 25, 2008, to purchase an aggregate of 925,926 shares of common stock at $0.27 per share to Monarch and MAG. The aggregate consideration received by the Company for the Series H Convertible Preferred Stock and warrants consisted of $500,000 and the remaining 1,450 shares of the Series G Convertible Preferred Stock, which were cancelled by the Company. The agreement contemplated the issuance by the Company at a second closing of 500 shares of Series H Convertible Preferred Stock and warrants, expiring on the third anniversary of the second closing, to purchase 925,926 shares of common stock at $0.27 per share, in exchange for aggregate consideration of $500,000. The obligations of the investors to consummate that second closing were subject to certain conditions, including that the closing price of the Company’s common stock would be $0.16 or greater for 20 consecutive trading days. This stock price condition was not satisfied and the second closing was not completed.

The first closing of the transaction took place on October 25, 2005. At the first closing, the Company issued 1,950 shares of Series H Preferred Stock, and warrants, expiring October 25, 2008, to purchase 925,926 shares of common stock at $0.27 per share. The preferred stock issued at the first closing is convertible into up to 26,896,552 shares of common stock. In connection with the first closing, Monarch transferred 1,450 shares of the Company’s Series G Convertible Preferred Stock to the Company for cancellation. The aggregate consideration paid by the investors for the preferred stock and warrants issued at the first closing was $500,000, in addition to the 1,450 shares of Series G Convertible Preferred Stock transferred by Monarch. As part of the financing the Company has agreed to use commercially reasonable efforts to register by December 31, 2005 the common shares issuable under the Series H Preferred Stock and related warrants.28

Upon such election, the Company would be obligated to redeem the Series H I Preferred Stock at an amount equal to $1,000 per share plus all declared but unpaid dividends. InIf ~~the~~such ~~event that~~election ~~the~~is ~~holders~~made ofand ~~Series H Preferred Stock exercise their redemption right but~~ the Company does not have sufficient funds available to redeem the Series H I Preferred Stock in accordance with applicable law, the holders of Series H I Preferred Stock as a class will be entitled to elect the smallest number of directors of the Company constituting a majority of the authorized number of directors.

In fiscal 2005 cash provided by financing activities totaled $1,747,000 primarily generated from the Series G Convertible Preferred Stock private placement the Company completed in November 2004 which provided net gross proceeds of $2,200,000.

The Company believes its capital requirements will continue to vary greatly from quarter to quarter, depending on, among other things, capital expenditures, fluctuations in its operating results, financing activities, and investments and third party products and receivables management. The Company’s future liquidity will depend on its ability to generate new system sales of its eB product suite in the near term, which cannot be assured. Management believes that the Company’s current cash and receivables and cash that may be generated from operations, will be sufficient to meet its short-term needs for working capital for at least the next year. However, the Company may not be able to obtain sufficient orders to enable the Company to continue on a cash flow break-even level, which would be necessary to continue operations in the absence of further financing. Future equity financings, if available to the Company, would be dilutive to the existing holders of the Company’s common stock. Future debt financings, if available to the Company, would likely involve restrictive covenants.

Net Operating Loss Tax Carryforwards

As of September 30, ~~2005~~2006, the Company had a net operating loss carryforward (“NOL”) for federal income tax purposes of $3332,~~637~~993,000, which expires over the years ~~2006~~2007 through ~~2023~~2024. The Company also had a NOL carryforward for state income tax purposes of $45,~~988~~765,000, which expires over the years ~~2005~~2007 through ~~2011~~2012. In addition, the Company generated but has not used research and investment tax credits for federal income tax purposes of approximately $274,000, which will substantially expire in the

3129

~~federal income tax purposes of approximately $274,000, which will substantially expire in the~~ years ~~2006~~2007 through ~~2011~~2012. Under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), the Company generally would be entitled to reduce its future Federal income tax liabilities by carrying unused NOL forward for a period of 20 years to offset future taxable income earned, and by carrying unused tax credits forward for a period of 20 years to offset future income taxes. As a result of the issuances of shares to Spescom Ltd. in the past, an additional ownership change occurred in April 2000. The Company’s ability to utilize the consolidated NOL in future years will be limited pursuant to Code Section 382. The annual limitation is approximately $1,159,000.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

At September 30, ~~2005~~ 2006 and ~~2004~~2005, we did not have any relationships with unconsolidated entities or or financial partnerships, including entities often referred to as structured finance or special purpose entities that would have been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements or other contractually narrow or limited purposes. Therefore, we are not materially exposed to any financing, liquidity, market or credit risk that could arise if we were engaged in such relationships.

Foreign Currency

The Company’s geographic markets are primarily in the United States and Europe, with some sales in other parts of the world. In fiscal ~~2005 and 2004~~2006, revenues recorded in the United States were 5465% of total ~~revenues,~~revenue and revenues from Europe and other locations were 4635% of total ~~revenues~~revenue. For ~~for~~fiscal ~~both~~2005 ~~years. In~~and ~~fiscal~~2004 ~~2003~~combined, revenues recorded in the United States were 5854% of total revenues, and revenues from Europe and other locations were 4246% of total revenues.

Revenues from our United Kingdom subsidiary can fluctuate from quarter to quarter based on the timing of customer orders. Revenue in fiscal 2006 and fiscal 2005 ~~was~~were improved by a foreign currency gain of $10,000 and $75,000 respectively, in each case due to a weakened dollar value compared to the pound sterling. Changes in foreign currency rates, the condition of local economies, and the general volatility of software markets may result in a higher or lower proportion of foreign revenues in the future. Although the Company’s operating and pricing strategies take into account changes in exchange rates over time, future fluctuations in the value of foreign currencies may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, operating results and financial condition.

Inflation

The Company believes that inflation has not had a material effect on its operations to date. Although the Company enters into fixed-price contracts, management does not believe that inflation will have an adverse material impact on its operations for the foreseeable future, as the Company takes into account expected inflation in its contract proposals and is generally able to project its costs based on forecasted contract requirements.

ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Interest Rate Risk

The Company’s exposure to market rate risk for changes in interest rates relates primarily to the Company’s investment portfolio. The Company does not use derivative financial instruments in its investment portfolio. The Company places its investment with high quality issuers and follows internally developed guidelines to limit the amount of credit exposure to any one issuer. Additionally, in an attempt to limit interest rate risk, the Company follows guidelines to limit the average and longest single maturity dates. The Company is adverse to principal loss and ensures the safety and preservation of its invested funds by limiting default, market and reinvestment risk. As of September 30, 2006, 2005 and 2004 the Company did not have any investments in money market accounts.

SPESCOM SOFTWARE INC.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements – September 30, ~~2005~~2006, ~~2004~~2005 and ~~2003~~2004

Note 1—The Company and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The Company

The Company develops markets and supports a suite of integrated document, configuration and records management software products. These products were developed to enable customers in a broad range of industries, including utilities, transportation and state and local governments among others to effectively and efficiently manage, share and distribute critical business information, expertise and other intellectual capital. The Company is headquartered in San Diego, California with an international sales and support subsidiary in London, UK.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements are prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned United Kingdom subsidiary, Spescom Software Ltd. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

Foreign Currency

The functional currency of the Company’s United Kingdom subsidiary is the pound sterling. Assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at end-of-period exchange rates. Revenues and expenses are translated at average exchange rates in effect for the period. Net currency exchange gains or losses resulting from such translations are excluded from net income and are accumulated in a separate component of shareholders’ deficit as accumulated other comprehensive income(loss). Gains and losses resulting from foreign currency transactions, which are not significant, are included in the consolidated statements of operations.

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 and also requires disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates made by management include revenue recognition estimates, the viability of recognizing deferred income tax assets, capitalized software costs and the valuation of equity instruments, and the allowance for doubtful accounts.

Revenue Recognition

Contracts are billed based on the terms of the contract. There are no retentions in billed contract receivables. Unbilled contract ~~receivables relate to revenues earned but not billed at the end of the period.~~

4138

receivables relate to revenues earned but not billed at the end of the period.

The Company considers many factors when applying U.S. generally accepted accounting principles related to revenue recognition. These factors include, but are not limited to:

•· The actual contractual terms, such as payment terms, delivery dates, and pricing of the various product and service elements of a contract

•· Availability of products to be delivered

•· Time period over which services are to be performed

•· Creditworthiness of the customer

•· The complexity of customizations to the Company’s software required by service contracts

•· The sales channel through which the sale is made (direct, VAR, distributor, etc.)

•· Discounts given for each element of a contract

•· Any commitments made as to installation or implementation of “go live” dates

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 107, “Disclosures About Fair Value of Financial Instruments”, requires management to disclose the estimated fair value of certain assets and liabilities defined by SFAS No. 107 as cash or a contractual obligation that both conveys to one entity a right to receive cash or other financial instruments from another entity, and imposes on the other entity the obligation to deliver cash or other financial instruments to the first entity. At September 30, 2005 and 2004, management believes that the carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, accounts receivable and accounts payable, and accrued expenses approximate fair value because of the short maturity of these financial instruments. The Company believes that the carrying value of its loans, leases and lines of credit approximate their fair values based on current market rates of interest.

Concentration of Credit Risk

The Company provides products and services to customers in a variety of industries worldwide, including local governments, petrochemicals, utilities, manufacturing and transportation. Concentration of credit risk with respect to trade receivables is limited due to the geographic and industry dispersion of the Company’s customer base. The Company has not experienced significant credit losses on its customer accounts.

A small number of customers has typically accounted for a large percentage of the Company’s annual revenues. ~~Network~~Constellation ~~Rail~~Energy Group accounted for 1613% of revenues for fiscal ~~2005~~ 2006, while Network Rail ~~and Constellation Energy Group~~ accounted for 2316% ~~and 15%, respectively~~ of revenues for fiscal ~~2004~~ 2005. Network Rail and Constellation Energy Group accounted for 1923% and 15%, respectively, of revenues for fiscal ~~2003~~2004.

Property, Equipment and ~~Equipment~~Purchased Software

Property and equipment is recorded at cost and depreciated using the straight-line method over useful lives of two to seven years. Purchased software is recorded at cost and amortized using the straight-line method over the useful lives of one to five years. Leasehold improvements are amortized on a straight-line basis over the shorter of their useful life or the term of the related lease.

Accumulated depreciation and amortization of property, equipment and ~~equipment~~purchase software was $1,~~094~~400,000 and $1,~~256~~392,000 at September 30, ~~2005~~ 2006 and ~~2004~~2005, respectively. The ~~related~~ related depreciation expense was $5779,000, $~~125~~83,000 and $~~123~~183,000 for the years ended September 30, ~~2005~~ 2006, ~~2004~~2005 and ~~2003~~2004 respectively. Expenditures for ordinary repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred while major additions and improvements are capitalized.

Software Development Costs ~~and Purchased Software~~

Software development costs ~~and purchased software~~ are capitalized when technological feasibility and marketability of the related product have been established. Software development costs incurred solely in connection with a specific contract are charged to cost of revenues. Capitalized software costs are amortized on a product-by-product basis, beginning when the product is available for general release to customers. In fiscal ~~2005~~2006 the Company capitalized $~~514~~35,000 of internal software ~~developments~~ development costs~~. Annual~~, ~~amortization~~while ~~expense is calculated using~~ the ~~greater~~Company of the ratio of each product’s current gross revenues to the total of current and expected gross revenues or the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of three to four years. Accumulated amortization of capitalized ~~software costs was~~ $~~299~~514,000 ~~and~~of ~~$272,000~~internal atsoftware ~~September 30, 2005~~developments ~~and~~costs ~~2004,~~in ~~respectively.~~fiscal ~~The related amortization expense was $27,000, $58,000, and $368,000 for the years ended September 30,~~ 2005~~, 2004 and 2003, respectively~~. InAnnual ~~2005,~~amortization ~~the~~expense ~~Company~~is ~~determined~~calculated ~~that~~using ~~certain of its capitalized software development cost had been impaired in accordance with SFAS No. 86, “Accounting for~~ the ~~Costs of Computer Software to Be Sold, Leased,~~ orgreater ~~Otherwise Marketed.” Based on the expectation that future net cash flows would be less than the carrying amount~~ of the ~~asset, the~~

~~Company~~ratio ~~wrote~~of ~~down~~each product’s current gross revenues to the total of current and expected gross revenues or the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of three to four years. Accumulated amortization of capitalized software bycosts was $3688,000 toand ~~its~~$1,000 at ~~net~~September 30, ~~realizable~~2006 ~~value~~and 2005, respectively. The ~~associated~~related amortization expense iswas ~~included~~$87,000 ~~in general~~ and ~~administrative~~$1,000 ~~expense~~ for the ~~year~~years ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively. The Company has determined that none of its capitalized development costs has been impaired as of September 30, 2006 in accordance with SFAS No. 86 “Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software to Be Sold, Leased, or Otherwise Marketed.”

Long-lived Assets

The Company assesses potential impairments to its long-lived assets when there is evidence that events or changes in circumstances have made recovery of the asset’s carrying value unlikely. An impairment loss would be recognized when the sum of the expected future net cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset. The Company concluded in fiscal ~~2005~~2006 and ~~2004~~2005 that there were no events or changes in circumstances that would indicate that the carrying amounts of long-lived assets were impaired.

~~Derivatives~~Share-Based Payments

The option vesting period under the plan is determined by the Board of Directors or a Stock Option Committee and usually provides that 25% of the options granted can be exercised 90 days from the date of grant, and thereafter, those options vest and become exercisable in additional cumulative annual installments of 25% commencing on the first anniversary of the date of grant. Options granted are generally due to expire upon the sooner of ten years from date of grant, thirty days after termination of services other than by reason of convenience of the Company, three months after disability, or one year after the date of the option holder’s death. The option exercise price is equal to the fair market value of the common stock on the date of grant. Options granted to employees under the 1996 Plan were either incentive stock options or nonqualified options. Only nonqualified options were granted to non-~~Based~~employee ~~Compensation~~directors.

The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions used for grants:

	For the year ended
	September 30,
	2006
Dividend Yield	0	%
Expected Volatility	391	%
Risk free interest rate	4.7	%
Expected lives	10

The weighted-average estimated fair value of employee stock options granted during fiscal 2006 using the Black-Scholes model were as follows:

	For the three months ended September 30,		For the year ended September 30,
	2006		2006

The weighted-average grant-date fair values of options granted during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2006 were $0.12 per share. There were no options exercised for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2006.

Stock-Based Compensation under FAS 123 for Periods Prior to Fiscal 2006

The Company measures compensation expense for its stock-based employee compensation plans using the intrinsic value method and provides pro forma disclosures of net loss and basic and diluted net loss per share as if the fair value-based method had been applied in measuring compensation expense. The Company applies SFAS No.123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation and Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 and related Interpretations in accounting for its employee stock-based compensation plan.

No compensation cost was recognized for employee stock option grants during 2005, 2004 or 2003 based upon the intrinsic value method, which were fixed in nature, as the options were granted at exercise prices equal to fair market value on the date of grant. Had compensation cost for the Company’s employee stock-based compensation plan been determined based on the fair value at the grant dates the disclosure requirements of SFAS 148, which amends the disclosure requirements of FAS 123, would have been as follows:41

Income Taxes

Current income tax expense is the amount of income taxes expected to be payable for the current year. A deferred income tax asset or liability is established for the expected future consequences resulting from the differences in the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities. Deferred income tax expense (benefit) is the change during the year in the deferred income tax asset or liability. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be “more likely than not” realized in the future based on the Company’s current and expected operating results.

Net Loss per Common Share

Basic net loss per common share is computed as net loss divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year. Diluted net loss per common share is computed as net loss divided by the weighted average number of common shares and potential common shares, using the treasury stock method, outstanding during the year and assumes conversion into common stock at the beginning of each period of all outstanding shares of convertible preferred stock, stock options, warrants and other potential common stock. Computations of diluted net loss per share do not give effect to individual potential common stock for any period in which their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.

Note 2—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS 123R which requires companies to measure all employee stock-based compensation awards using a fair value method and record such expense in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The provisions of SFAS 123R are effective for the first annual reporting period that begins after June 15, 2005. The Company ~~will~~adopted ~~adopt~~ this standard at ~~the~~ the beginning of fiscal 2006 ~~and~~under ~~will elect~~ the modified-prospective transition method. Under the modified-prospective method, awards that are granted, modified, repurchased or cancelled after the date of adoption should be measured and accounted for in accordance with SFAS 123R. Awards that are granted prior to the effective date should continue to be accounted for in accordance with SFAS 123 except that stock option expense for unvested options must be recognized in the income statement. ~~The~~Had ~~impact of adoption of SFAS 123R cannot be predicted at this time because it will depend on, among other things, levels of share-based payments granted in~~ the ~~future, the market value of the~~ Company’s common stock as well as assumptions regarding a number of complex variables. These variables include, but are not limited to, the Company’s stock price, volatility, and employee stock option exercise behaviors and the related tax impact. However, had the Company adopted SFAS 123R in prior periods, the Company believes the impact of that standard would have approximated the impact of SFAS 123 as described in the above “Stock Based Employee Compensation” disclosure of pro forma net income and earnings per share.

In May 2005, the FASB issued SFAS No. 154, “Accounting Changes and Error Corrections” (SFAS 154), which replaces Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 20 “Accounting Changes” and FASB Statement No. 3, “Reporting Accounting Changes in Interim Financial Statements”. SFAS 154 is effective for accounting changes and correction of errors made in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005 and requires retrospective application to prior period financial statements of voluntary changes in accounting principle, unless it is impractical to determine either the period-specific effects or the cumulative effect of the change. The consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows will only be impacted by SFAS 154 if the Company implements a voluntary change in accounting principle or correct accounting errors in future periods.

In March 2005, ~~the~~ the FASB issued Interpretation No. 47, “Accounting for Conditional Asset Retirement Obligations” (FIN 47) which is effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2005 and is an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 143, “Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations”. FIN 47 requires recognition of a liability for the fair value of a conditional asset retirement obligation when incurred if the fair value of the liability can be reasonably estimated. The Company does not expect the adoption of FIN 47 to have a material impact on the consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

incurred if the fair value of the liability can be reasonably estimated. The Company does not expect the adoption of FIN 47 to have a material impact on the consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 153, “Exchanges of Nonmonetary Assets, an amendment of APB Opinion No. 29, Accounting for Nonmonetary Transactions” (SFAS 153), as part of its short-term international convergence project with the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB). Under SFAS 153, nonmonetary exchanges are required to be accounted for at fair value, recognizing any gains or losses, if their fair value is determinable within reasonable limits and the transaction has commercial substance. SFAS 153 is effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005. The Company does not expect the adoption of SFAS 153 to have a material impact on the consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In November 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 151, “Inventory Costs, an amendment of ARB No. 43, Chapter 4” (SFAS 151), which adopts wording from the IASB’s International Accounting Standard, “Inventories,” in an effort to improve the comparability of cross-border financial reporting. The new standard indicates that abnormal freight, handling costs and wasted materials are required to be treated as current period charges rather than as a portion of inventory costs. Additionally, the standard clarifies that fixed production overhead should be allocated based on the normal capacity of a production facility. SFAS 151 is effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005. The Company does not expect the adoption of SFAS 151 to have a material impact on the consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

~~Note~~In 3February –2006, the ~~Spescom~~FASB ~~Ltd~~issued FAS 155, “Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial Instruments,” an amendment of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, ~~Transaction~~“Accounting for Derivative Instruments and ~~Related~~Hedging ~~Parties~~Activities” (“FAS 133”) and Financial

In September 2003, $5,291,000 of debt owed to Spescom Ltd. and its wholly owed subsidiary, Spescom UK was converted into preferred stock. The debt converted was comprised of the outstanding principal balance of promissory notes plus accrued but unpaid interest as well as accounts payable due to Spescom UK in the amount of $492,000. On September 30, 2003, the Company issued 5,291 Series F Convertible Preferred Stock which has a stated value of $1,000 per share. The Series F Convertible Preferred Stock is convertible into common stock based on a conversion price of $0.45 per share subject to certain adjustments. The conversion is at the option of Spescom Ltd. through September 30, 2008.43

Accounting Standards No. 140, “Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities” (“FAS 140”). With respect to FAS 133, FAS 155 simplifies accounting for certain hybrid financial instruments by permitting fair value remeasurement for any hybrid financial instrument that contains an embedded derivative that otherwise would require bifurcation and eliminates the interim guidance in Statement 133 Implementation Issue No. D1, “Application of Statement 133 to Beneficial Interests in Securitized Financial Assets,” which provided that beneficial interests in securitized financial assets are not subject to the provision of FAS 133. With respect to FAS 140, FAS 155 eliminates a restriction on the passive derivative instruments that a qualifying special-purpose entity may hold. FAS 155 is effective for all financial instruments acquired or issued after the beginning of an entity’s first fiscal year that begins after September 15, 2006. We do not expect the adoption of FAS 155 to significantly affect our financial condition or results of operations.

In July 2006, the FASB issued FIN 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes” which prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement process for recording in the financial statements uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. Additionally, FIN 48 provides guidance on derecognition, classification, accounting in interim periods and disclosure requirements for uncertain tax positions. The accounting provisions of FIN 48 will be effective for us beginning October 1, 2007. We are in the process of determining the effect, if any, the adoption of FIN 48 will have on our financial statements.

In September 2006, the FASB issued FAS 157, “Fair Value Measurements.” FAS 157 defines fair value, established a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. FAS 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. We do not expect the adoption of FAS 157 to significantly affect our financial condition or results of operations.

In September 2006, the FASB issued FAS 158, “Employers’ Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans-an Amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88, 106 and 132(R).” FAS 158 requires an employer to recognize the overfunded or underfunded status of a defined benefit postretirement plan (other than a multiemployer plan) as an asset or liability in its statement of financial position and to recognize the changes in that funded status in the year in which the changes occur through comprehensive income of a business entity or changes in unrestricted net assets of a not-for-profit organization. FAS 158 is effective for us as of the end of the fiscal year ending after December 15, 2006. We do not expect the adoption of FAS 158 to significantly affect our financial condition or results of operations.

In September 2006, the SEC released SAB 108 to address diversity in practice regarding consideration of the effects of prior year errors when quantifying misstatements in current year financial statements. The SEC staff concluded that registrants should quantify financial statement errors using both a balance sheet approach and an income statement approach and evaluate whether either approach results in quantifying a misstatement that, when all relevant quantitative and qualitative factors are considered, is material. SAB 108 states that if correcting an error in the current year materially affects the current year’s income statement, the prior period financial statements must be restated. SAB 108 is effective for fiscal years ending after November 15, 2006. We do not expect the adoption of SAB 108 to significantly affect our financial condition or results of operations.

In October 2006, the FASB issued FAS 123R-5, “Amendment of FASB Staff Position FAS 123R-1,” to address whether a modification of an instrument in connection with an equity restructuring should be considered a modification for purposes of applying FAS 123R-1, “Classification and Measurement of Freestanding Financial Instruments Originally Issued in Exchange for Employee Services under FASB Statement No. FAS 123(R).” The provisions in FAS 123R-5 are effective for us in the quarter beginning January 1, 2007. We do not expect the adoption of FAS 123R-5 to significantly affect our financial condition or results of operations.

Note 5 – Reconciliation of Net Loss and Shares Used in Per Share Computations:

Basic earnings per share is computed on the basis of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share is computed on the basis of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus the effect of outstanding stock options, stock awards and shared performance stock awards using the “treasury stock” method. The components of basic and diluted earnings per share were as follows:

~~than June~~Note ~~30, 2006~~12—Quarterly ofResults ~~at least two-thirds~~ of ~~the~~Operations then-outstanding shares, elect to have all of the outstanding shares of Series H Preferred Stock redeemed by the Company. Upon such election, the Company would be obligated to redeem the Series H Preferred Stock at an amount equal to $1,000 per share plus all declared but unpaid dividends. In the event that the holders of Series H Preferred Stock exercise their redemption right but the Company does not have sufficient funds available to redeem the Series H Preferred Stock in accordance with applicable law, the holders of Series H Preferred Stock as a class will be entitled to elect the smallest number of directors of the Company constituting a majority of the authorized number of directors.(Unaudited)

The Series H Preferred Stock shares issued at the first closing and those subject to issuance at the second closing are convertible into common stock at the conversion rate in effect at the time of conversion. The conversion price per share of the Series H Preferred Stock is equal to 85% of the market price (the volume weighted average price of the Company’s common stock during the 5 immediately preceding trading days, subject to adjustment), provided that in no event shall the conversion price exceed a ceiling price of $0.40 per share (the “Ceiling Price”), or be less than a floor price which varies with the aggregate gross revenues of the Company during the last four fiscal quarters for which revenues have been reported by the Company prior to such time, but which will not be lower than $0.0725 per share and not higher than $0.16 per share. The conversion price is subject to adjustment in the case of any stock split, combination, capital reorganization, reclassification, consolidation or merger, and certain dividends. Subject to certain exceptions, the conversion price is also subject to weighted average anti-dilution adjustment in the case of an issuance of shares of common stock or securities exercisable for or convertible into common stock, at a per share price, exercise price or conversion price less than the conversion price then in effect.
