Item 1. ~~Business~~Description of Business

Overview

Comtex News Network, Inc. (“Comtex” or the “Company”) is a leading ~~wholesaler~~provider of economically useful electronic real-time news, content and ~~related~~SmarTrend® market products. Comtex customers receive select content ~~for~~from ~~major~~key ~~financial~~sources, which is further enhanced with stock tickers and ~~business~~an ~~information~~extended ~~distributors~~lexicon of relevant terms. With a specialization in the financial news and content marketplace, Comtex receives, enhances, combines, filters and distributes news and content received from more than 10,000 national and international news bureaus, agencies and publications., ~~The~~and ~~resulting~~distributes ~~news~~more ~~and content~~than ~~products—with~~one ~~embedded~~million ~~stock~~total ~~tickers,~~stories ~~key~~per ~~words,~~day. ~~standardized~~For ~~metadata,~~more ~~uniform~~than ~~formatting~~two ~~and~~decades, ~~custom~~Comtex ~~filters—are~~has ~~all~~been ~~designed~~a toleader in ~~meet~~ the ~~exacting~~field ~~standards~~of ~~required~~news aggregation by ~~investment~~developing ~~professionals.~~the ~~Comtex~~methods ~~has~~and ~~offices~~technology into ~~Alexandria, Virginia~~meet ~~and~~the ~~New~~rapidly ~~York,~~changing ~~New~~needs ~~York.~~of publishers and clients.

Within the increasingly global economy, information is seen as an asset, and information drives critical decisions. Therefore, delivering unique and relevant high-value information to maximize worth and make content accessible anytime, anywhere, and anyway, has become the key to success in the content industry. Comtex provides content via superior technology platforms, which allow information to be distributed and updated with the lowest latency possible, in a consistent, compatible format. Comtex is also well known for its diligent and excellent record of customer care, and for providing a suite of comprehensive and responsive client services.

Comtex has also developed a line of proprietary stock trend alert products, marketed under the name “SmarTrend,” which are sold directly to consumers as well as through financial distributors. During the 2009 fiscal year, Comtex formed a wholly owned subsidiary, LeGarde Capital Management LLC, which has begun to use the SmarTrend technology for investing capital. Comtex has offices in Alexandria, Virginia; Boston, Massachusetts; and New York, New York.

Market Positioning

Prior to the predominance of the Internet, Comtex was one of the market originators of electronic real-time news. At that time, our client focus was on financial information services, corporate enterprise solution vendors and online consumer services. With the growth of the Internet, we expanded our client base to include consumer and individual investor sites. A vital element of our growth was the distinctive value we added to real-time, public company news by adding stock ticker symbols and filtering the news into specific categories.

The demand for news and content distribution paralleled the tremendous growth of the Internet during the late 1990’s. Similarly, the subsequent collapse of Internet-related businesses resulted in business consolidation and failures, the decline of individual investor web sites, and the erosion of royalties from corporate solution providers. Given these market conditions, it became increasingly important for Comtex to clearly define our role and value to our customers and publisher-partners. We have a strong reputation of adding value to the publishers’ products that we license to distributors, and providing our publisher-partners with incremental revenue and exposure to new markets.

In its dominant customer market, the financial industry, Comtex sells “actionable” news and content. “Actionable” news equates to information, the receipt of which causes one to take some action, e.g., buying or selling a stock. In this market, our clients’ end-users (the ultimate consumers of Comtex information) employ our news and content to stay abreast of the market. The actionable part of the equation also comes into play whenever Comtex information is used either to make money or save money. Such concepts apply equally as well to situations other than buying or selling securities, e.g., information to assist in job performance. Thus, the basic principle of “economically useful information” underpins Comtex’s business strategy.

Comtex’s publishers, newswire services and other content partners supply the information that is the foundation of our product offerings. Each of our suppliers generally offers a unique editorial perspective and area of coverage that we integrate with other suppliers’ content to create our products. Our licensing procedures address content suppliers’ concerns about unauthorized distribution and publishing. These publishers receive royalties in most cases based upon their content’s contribution to our products and the corresponding revenues generated from our customers. In some cases, we are required to pay monthly minimum guarantees for the rights to license the content. ~~Therefore, our distributors receive the benefit of our upfront capital investment and, in turn, also pay us monthly minimums.~~

Technology

Comtex uses a proprietary real-time content processing system designed to process and enhance real-time data. As electronic submissions of news and information are received from our suppliers, our system converts each story into a common data format, applies standardized document coding or metadata, assigns relevant keywords from our proprietary taxonomy, and assigns ticker symbols to each public company mentioned in a story. These metadata enhance the functionality of filters that sort our stories into CustomWires and allow our distributors to accurately and efficiently redirect content to their products and ultimately to their end-users.

Technology infrastructure investments in fiscal ~~2004~~2009 included additional hardware and software development, both of which have continued to improve the reliability of our systems.

As available technology is developed, we continue to evaluate and adopt new approaches to improve reliability, decrease costs and deliver increasingly complex products using simpler methodologies.

SmarTrend dynamically analyzes up to three years of historical stock price data coupled with real-time current-day trading information, and sends resulting alerts indicating that a price trend change has been identified. Hundreds of factors are simultaneously analyzed to result in this unique price trend change notification system. SmarTrend is based upon proprietary automated time-price series pattern recognition technology developed over the past 25 years.

Comtex now distributes unique, premium content generated by the SmarTrend Market Analytics Group, including:


	●	SmarTrend Morning Call – a comprehensive daily market newsletter that examines proprietary SmarTrend market indicators, and reviews stocks whose movements have been directly linked to changes in the market. Morning Call also outlines key economic and business events expected to impact the movement of equity markets and highlights specific company announcements and earnings releases;

	●	SmarTrend Market Commentary – including three daily market commentaries which report the latest happenings throughout the trading day, including: Opening Bell Comments, MidDay Market Recap, and Market Wrap-Up commentary;

	●	SmarTrend Weekly Wrap-Up – every Friday following market close, the SmarTrend Market Analytics Group reports on the week’s market moving events and projected major events for the week ahead;

	●	SmarTrend NewsWatch – articles highlighting major business and economic news throughout the day; and

	●	SmarTrend Spotlights – articles highlighting trading alerts generated by the SmarTrend system.

Product development activities in addition to SmarTrend include quality assurance, content product enhancements and the development of proprietary new products. For the fiscal years ended June 30, 2009 and 2008 our product development costs were approximately $67,000 and $307,000, respectively. Expenses related to the design and development of our content processing systems and marketing tools are not included in these costs.

Competition

Our competition includes integrators and distributors of news and related content, national and international electronic news and information services, and traditional content providers seeking direct relationships with distributors. We differentiate ourselves from our competition by the specific content we offer; the integrated products we create; technology delivery solutions; and other ~~“one stop~~benefits ~~shop”~~provided ~~advantages.~~by our consolidated news and information systems.

Employees

At ~~September~~June 2230, ~~2004~~2009, we had ~~approximately~~26 25 full-time employees. The employees are not members of a union and we believe employee relations are generally good.

Available Information

We file annual, quarterly and special reports, proxy statements and other information with the ~~Securities and Exchange Commission (the “~~SEC”). You may read and copy any document we file at the SEC’s public reference room at ~~450~~100 ~~Fifth~~F Street, NWNE, Washington, D.C. 20549. Please call the SEC at 1-800-SEC-0330 for further information on the public reference rooms.

6An investment in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. The following risk factors should be considered carefully in evaluating Comtex News Network, Inc. and our business. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also impair our business operations. Our financial condition, operating results and the trading price of our common stock could be materially adversely affected due to any of these risks, in which case you could lose all or part of your investment. In assessing these risks, you should also refer to the other information in this and our other public filings, including our financial statements and notes thereto.

We Are Dependent On Cash Reserves.

For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2009 we had net cash use of $144,000, and our revenue base has been declining. Our ability to meet our liquidity needs on a long-term basis depends on our ability to generate sufficient revenues and cash to cover our current obligations. No assurance may be given that we will be able to maintain the revenue base or the size of profitable operations that may be necessary to achieve our long-term liquidity needs.

We Depend On The Continued Growth In The Use Of The Internet For News and Financial Information.

Our business depends on businesses and individual consumers continuing to increase their use of the Internet for obtaining news and financial information. Internet usage may be inhibited for a number of reasons, including inadequate network infrastructure; security concerns; inconsistent quality of service; and availability of cost-effective, high-speed service. Because the market for our products is consolidating and is in flux, it is difficult to predict with any certainty the growth rate, if any, and the ultimate size of our markets. If the market fails to continue to develop, develops more slowly than expected or becomes saturated with competitors; if our services do not maintain significant market acceptance; if our customers’ business models are not successful; or if pricing becomes subject to considerable competitive pressures; our business operations and financial condition would be materially, adversely affected.

We Face Intense Competition That Could Impede Our Ability To Grow and Maintain Profitability.

The business information services industry is intensely competitive and is characterized by rapid technological change and entry into the field by large and well-capitalized companies. Many of our competitors have substantially greater financial, technical and marketing resources. Our competitors include Internet-focused aggregators and distributors of content, individual national and international electronic news and information services, and traditional content providers seeking new markets for their content or seeking direct relationships with distributors.

We expect competition to continue to increase as the market for content aggregation increases, as current competitors improve their offerings, as new competitors attempt to enter the market, and as traditional content providers seek new markets for their content and direct relationships with distributors. While we believe our continued investment in content, new products and technology, as well as the expansion of our distributor partnerships will continue to favorably position us in the market, it is possible that our competitors may acquire significant market share and we may not be able to retain our customers.

Furthermore, increased competition on the basis of price, delivery systems or otherwise, may require us to implement price reductions or increase our spending on marketing or software development, which could have a material, adverse effect on our business and operating results.

If We Are Unable To Maintain Our Reputation and Expand Our Name Recognition, We May Have Difficulty Attracting New Business and Retaining Current Customers and Employees.

We believe that establishing and maintaining a good reputation and name recognition are critical for attracting and retaining customers and employees. If our reputation is damaged or if potential customers are not familiar with us, we may be unable to attract new, or retain existing customers and employees. Promotion and enhancement of our name will depend largely on our success in continuing to provide effective services. If customers do not perceive our services to be effective or of high quality, our brand name and reputation will suffer.

The Sale of Information Regarding Stock Market Trading Poses Certain Risks.

All software may contain errors and all financial market and similar databases and services, including the data used by the Company, contain inaccuracies and mistakes and are incomplete in certain respects. In our agreements, customers are strongly advised to verify pricing and all other relevant information prior to making any trade or investment.

Furthermore, investments and trading involve risks, including possible loss of principal and other losses. SmarTrend data products are designed, provided and/or presented chiefly to provide a training tool for the understanding of the financial markets. They are licensed to customers with the understanding that neither the Company nor its data suppliers are engaged in rendering any investment, trading or other professional advice. If investment, trading or other professional advice is required, the services of a competent, licensed professional are recommended to customers. No employee, agent or representative of the Company is authorized to provide any such advice of any nature whatever.

Some Customers Pose Credit Risks.

With some customers, we have experienced difficulties collecting accounts receivable. In addition, we lost some customers directly due to the failure of their business models to sustain operations. We may continue to encounter these difficulties in the future. If any significant part of our customer base continues to experience economic difficulties or is unable to pay our fees, for any reason, our business would be materially, adversely affected.

Unauthorized Break-Ins To Our Systems Could Harm Our Business.

Although we have implemented strict security policies and perimeter defenses, our computer and telecommunications systems are vulnerable to computer viruses, physical or electronic break-ins and similar disruptions, which could lead to interruptions in, delays in or loss of data. In addition, unauthorized persons may improperly access our data. Any intrusions may harm us and may be very expensive to remedy, could damage our reputation, and discourage new and existing customers from using our service.

If Equipment Failures Interrupt The Distribution Of Content To Our Customers, We Could Lose Customers and Our Reputation May Be Adversely Affected.

We rely on third-party telecommunications networks for the distribution of our content. Any failure of these networks could interrupt or delay our service, which could lead to customers canceling contracts, could damage our reputation, and impact our ability to attract additional customers.

Substantially all of our computer and communications hardware resides in three locations: Alexandria and Vienna, Virginia and Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Although hardware configurations/locations and software systems are designed to be fault tolerant and to facilitate any disaster recovery, any catastrophic disaster, power outage or system failure that causes interruptions in our ability to provide continuing service to our customers could reduce our revenues due to customer dissatisfaction and impair our ability to attract additional customers.

Losing Major Content Providers May Leave Us With Insufficient Breadth Of Content To Retain and Attract Customers.

We do not generate large quantities of original content and therefore are highly dependent upon third-party content providers. If we were to lose one of our major content providers and were not able to obtain similar content from another source, our services would be less attractive to customers. In addition, we cannot be certain that we will be able to license content from our current or new providers on favorable terms in the future, if at all.

Our Dependence On Key Personnel.

Our future success may depend on the continued services of our senior management and other key personnel. We do not maintain “key person” life insurance for any of our personnel. Our future success will also depend on our ability to attract, retain and motivate other highly skilled employees. Companies in our industry compete intensely to hire and retain qualified personnel and if we are not able to attract the employees we need or retain the services of those we have hired, our business operations could be materially, adversely affected.

Our Common Stock Price Is Volatile, Fluctuates Significantly and Trades on a Sporadic Basis.

The trading price of our Common Stock has been, and probably will continue to be, subject to wide fluctuations and limited trading volume. The shares are traded on the OTCBB. The stock is not followed by any security analysts and has a limited and unpredictable number of market makers. During fiscal year 2009, the closing prices of our Common Stock ranged from $0.05 to $0.35. In addition to the foregoing, the stock price may also fluctuate in response to a number of events and factors, such as the following:

	●	quarterly variations in operating results;
	●	announcements of technological innovations or new products by us or our competitors;
	●	the operating and stock price performance of other companies that investors may deem comparable; and
	●	news reports relating to trends in our markets.

In addition, the stock market in general, and the market prices for Internet-related companies in particular, have experienced extreme volatility that often has been unrelated to the operating performance of such companies.

Potential Acquisitions, Mergers and/or Strategic Investments May Result In Increased Expenses, Difficulties In Integrating Target Companies and Diversion Of Management’s Attention.

We anticipate that from time to time, we may consider acquisitions of assets or businesses that we believe may enable us to obtain complementary skills and capabilities, offer new services, expand our customer base or obtain other competitive advantages. Growth through acquisitions and/or mergers involves potential risks, including, but not limited to, the following:


	●	diversion of management’s attention during the acquisition/merger process;
	●	costs, delays and difficulties of integrating the acquired company’s operations, technology and personnel into our operations;
	●	adverse affect on earnings due to amortizing any intangible assets acquired;
	●	issuance of new equity securities that dilute the holdings of existing stockholders; and
	●	uncertainty of working with new employees and customers.

Our Executive Officers and Directors Significantly Influence All Matters Requiring Stockholder Vote.

Our executive officers and directors, in the aggregate, beneficially own approximately 24% of our outstanding common stock. As a result, our executive officers and directors are able to significantly influence the outcome of all matters requiring approval by our stockholders, including the election of directors and approval of significant transactions. This concentration of ownership could delay, deter or prevent a change of control and could adversely affect the price that investors are willing to pay in the future for shares of our common stock.

We Have No Intention To Pay Dividends.

We have never declared or paid any cash dividends on our common stock. We currently intend to retain any future earnings for funding growth and, therefore, do not expect to pay any cash dividends in the foreseeable future.

Item 2.	Description of Property

We own no real estate. We lease office space at 625 N. Washington Street in Alexandria, Virginia. We currently lease 4,000 square feet at a monthly expense of approximately $8,900, which lease will expire in January 2011. In addition, we sub-lease 3,100 rentable square feet of space in New York, New York, at a cost of approximately $9,800 per month, which lease will expire in March 2014. We also rent a corporate apartment in Old Town Alexandria under a month-to-month lease.


Item 3.	Legal Proceedings

In July 2003, the Company commenced negotiations with its former landlord, Plaza I-A Associates (“Plaza I-A”) regarding the proposed termination of the lease obligation at 4900 Seminary Road, Alexandria, VirginiaNone. As part of the negotiations, on September 3, 2003, Plaza I-A filed a lawsuit in Alexandria General District Court in the Commonwealth of Virginia for approximately $92,000 in unpaid rent and late fees through September 30, 2003.

On December 9, 2003, the Company and Plaza I-A executed a settlement agreement terminating the subject lease and the above lawsuit was dismissed on or about December 17, 2003. The total remaining liability on the lease was approximately $2.6 million prior to the settlement agreement. Pursuant to the terms of the settlement agreement, the Company paid rent and legal fees of approximately $147,000 and entered into a four-year note payable to Plaza I-A for $360,000. Settlement expense with Plaza I-A for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2004 includes the $360,000 expense for the four-year note, approximately $143,000 in commissions and legal fees, as well as an expense related to the forfeiture of the Company’s security deposit in the face amount of approximately $62,000, partially offset by the recovery of deferred rent expense of approximately $87,000.

On April 15, 2004, each of the Company’s former Chairman/CEO and President, who both resigned on February 5, 2004, filed a demand for arbitration against the Company related to the terms of their employment agreements. The demand alleges a breach of the employment agreements and requests payment of approximately $129,000 to the former employees. The Company denies the allegations and intends to vigorously defend this action.

The Company is also involved in routine legal proceedings occurring in the ordinary course of business, which in the aggregate are believed by management to be immaterial to our financial condition.

Item 7.	Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Overview

We generate revenues primarily from charges to distributors for the licensing of enhanced content, including CustomWires, TopNews products and publishers’ full feeds. Distributor licenses typically consist of minimum royalty commitments and fixed fees for communication and support. Royalties are based upon our customers’ business and revenue models such that success in their chosen markets generates increasing revenues for us.

We are based in the United States. A wholly owned subsidiary in Madrid, Spain was formed in the fall of 2001, to expand our operations throughout Europe; however, due to negative cash flow from these operations and the lack of sales in Europe, the subsidiary was shut down in December 2002. Subsequent to June 30, 2004, the Company’s Board of Directors resolved to dispose of the subsidiary since it was no longer active. The transaction had no material affect on the financial condition of the Company in fiscal year 2004 and beyond.

Application of Critical Accounting Policies

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations discusses our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting ~~policies~~principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires us to make 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~~periods. We believe the following critical accounting policies affect significant judgments, estimates and assumptions used in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements.

Revenue

Information services revenues (royalties and fixed fees) are recognized as services ~~are~~ rendered based on contractual terms such as usage, fixed fee, percentage of distributor revenues or other pricing models. Start-up fee revenues, charges for implementation and initial integration support of our products, are recognized over the initial term of the contract pursuant to the SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin 104, Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements. Amounts received in advance of service performance are deferred and recognized over the service period. Certain royalty revenues are estimated based on prior usage reports and adjusted accordingly, based on reporting received from customers.

~~Restructuring Activities~~ 14

InAllowance July 2003, the Company commenced negotiations with its former landlord, Plaza I-A Associates (“Plaza I-A”) regarding the proposed termination of the lease obligation at 4900 Seminary Road, Alexandria, Virginia. On December 9, 2003, the Company and Plaza I-A executed a settlement agreement terminating the subject. The total remaining liability on the lease was approximately $2.6 million prior to the settlement agreement. Pursuant to the terms of the settlement agreement, the Company paid rent and legal fees of approximately $147,000 and entered into a four-year note payable to Plaza I-A for ~~$360,000,~~Doubtful ~~which~~Accounts; isSales secured by a $360,000 certificate-of-deposit-backed standby letter of credit. Settlement expense with Plaza I-A for the year ended June 30, 2004 includes the $360,000 expense for the four-year note, approximately $143,000 in commissions and legal fees, as well as an expense related to the forfeiture of the Company’s security deposit in the face amount of approximately $62,000, partially offset by the recovery of deferred rent expense of approximately $87,000.

These amounts are included in technical operations and support, sales and marketing, and other expense for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2003. All amounts have been paid as of the fiscal year end. Subsequent to June 30, 2004, the Company’s Board of Directors resolved to dispose of nFactory since it was no longer active. The transaction had no material affect on the financial condition of the Company in fiscal year 2004 and beyond.

In October 2002, Comtex vacated leased premises of approximately 7,000 square feet and consolidated employees in the remaining premises. The Company recorded a charge of approximately $126,000 in October 2002, which represented the Company’s remaining lease obligation, offset by any rental income, and was recorded in general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statement of operations. Approximately $10,000 was accrued as of June 30, 2003 and was paid in the first quarter of the fiscal year ending June 30, 2004.

During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2003, the Company implemented reductions in workforce impacting approximately 15 employees. Severance expense of approximately $88,000 in the aggregate was recorded and is reflected in technical operations and support, sales and marketing and general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statement of operations. Approximately $33,500 of this amount was accrued as of June 30, 2003 and was paid in fiscal year 2004.

Long-lived Assets, Including Capitalized Software

We evaluate, on a quarterly basis, our long-lived assets to be held and used, including capitalized software, to determine whether any events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. We base our evaluation on certain impairment indicators, such as the nature of the assets, the future economic benefit of the assets, any historical or future profitability measurements, as well as other external market conditions or factors that may be present. If these impairment indicators are present or other factors exist that indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable, we then use an estimate of the undiscounted value of expected future operating cash flows to determine whether the asset is recoverable and measure the amount of any impairment as the difference between the carrying amount of the asset and its estimated fair value. The fair value is estimated using valuation techniques such as market prices for similar assets or discounted future operating cash flows.

Contingencies

From time to time, we are subject to proceedings, lawsuits and other claims related to labor and other matters. We are required to assess the likelihood of any adverse judgments or outcomes to these contingencies, as well as potential ranges of probable losses and establish reserves accordingly. The amounts of reserve required, if any, may change in future periods due to new developments in each matter or changes in approach to a matter such as a change in settlement strategy.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Comparison of the Fiscal Year ended June 30, ~~2004~~2009 to the Fiscal Year ended June 30, ~~2003~~ 2008

~~Revenues consist primarily of royalty revenues and fees from the licensing of content products to information distributors.~~ During the year ended June 30, ~~2004~~2009, our ~~total~~ revenues were approximately $86,~~165~~402,000, acompared ~~decrease~~with ~~of approximately $1,104,000, or 12%, from total~~ revenues of approximately $97,~~268~~070,000 for the year ended June 30, ~~2003~~2008. ~~The~~Revenues ~~decline~~consisted inprimarily ~~revenues is the direct result~~ of ~~business~~royalty ~~closures~~revenues and ~~consolidation~~fees ~~among~~from ~~customers,~~the ~~primarily~~licensing inof ~~the~~content ~~Internet~~products ~~and~~to ~~personal~~information ~~investor markets~~distributors. ~~One~~Net ofincome for the ~~Company’s~~year ~~customers~~ended ~~accounted~~June ~~for~~30, ~~approximately~~2009 ~~13.3%~~decreased ofto ~~gross~~approximately ~~revenues~~$92,000, ~~for~~from ~~the~~net ~~fiscal~~income ~~year~~of ~~ended~~approximately ~~June 30~~$713,000 ~~2004.~~for ~~For~~ the ~~fiscal~~ year ended June 30, ~~2003~~2008, ~~one~~a decrease of ~~the~~approximately ~~Company’s~~$621,000. ~~customers~~The ~~accounted~~decrease ~~for~~in ~~approximately~~net ~~10.1%~~income ofprimarily ~~gross~~resulted ~~revenues.~~from ~~The~~reductions ~~Company~~in ~~maintains~~revenues ~~reserves~~as onrelated ~~accounts receivable and,~~ to ~~date,~~current ~~credit~~economic ~~losses~~conditions ~~have~~and ~~not~~consolidations ~~exceeded~~of ~~management’s~~our ~~expectations.~~customer base.

The Company maintains reserves on accounts receivable and to date for fiscal years ended June 30, 2009 and 2008 credit losses have not exceeded management’s expectations.

10Cost of revenues consisted primarily of content licensing fees and royalties to content providers, depreciation expense on production software, and data communication costs for the delivery of products to customers. The cost of revenues for the year ended June 30, 2009 was approximately $2,292,000, a decrease of approximately $318,000, or 12.2%, from the cost of revenues for the year ended June 30, 2008. This decrease was primarily due to decreased revenues and a decrease in royalty usage fees, renegotiation of fixed costs associated with certain content providers, and a decrease in software amortization expense.

to customers. The cost of revenues for the year ended June 30, 2004 was approximately $3,608,000, a decrease of approximately $279,000, or 7%, from the cost of revenues for the year ended June 30, 2003. The decrease in cost is due to a decrease in content royalties of approximately $160,000, based on our decreased revenues for the period and negotiated reductions in license fees to information providers; a decrease of approximately $108,000 in data communication costs to receive and distribute content; and a decrease of approximately $64,000 in depreciation and amortization expense based on the write-off of a product offering during fiscal year 2003; partially offset by an increase of approximately $53,000 in expenses related to an offsite, hosted data facility. The decrease in content royalties is limited by minimum fees required to be paid to certain information providers and therefore does not directly track the decrease in gross revenues.

The gross profit for the year ended June 30, 2004 was approximately $4,557,000, a decrease of approximately $824,000, or 15%, from the prior year. The gross margin percentage decreased for the year ended June 30, 2004, to approximately 56% from approximately 58% in the prior year. The decline is based on the decrease in revenues without a corresponding decrease in content royalties as discussed above.

Total operating expenses for the year ended June 30, 2004 were approximately $5,642,000, representing an approximate $951,000 or 14% decrease in operating expenses from the year ended June 30, 2003. This decrease in expenses resulted primarily from decreases in sales and marketing expenses, general and administrative expenses, and depreciation and amortization expenses. These decreases were partially offset by increases in settlement expenses related to a lease termination with a former landlord, and stock-based compensation expenses.

Technical operations and support expenses during the year ended June 30, 2004 decreased approximately $34,000, or 2%, from these expenses in the year ended June 30, 2003. This decrease resulted from a restructuring of technical operations.

Sales and marketing expenses decreased by approximately $425,000 or 42% for year ended June 30, 2004 compared to the prior year. The decrease is the result of decreases in sales and marketing personnel and related expenses, compared to the prior year, as well as the shutdown of sales operations in Spain as of December 31, 2002.

General and administrative expenses for the year ended June 30, 2004 decreased approximately $552,000 or 24%, compared to the prior year. The decrease in expenses is due to decreases in general and administrative personnel and related expenses, as well as a decrease in rent expense as a result of a reduction in leased office space. This decrease was partially offset by the recovery of accrued contingent expenses of approximately $394,000 related to a favorable litigation settlement in December 2002. The recovery of those legal fees reduced the expenses in the prior year in comparison to the year ended June 30, 2004. Excluding this $394,000 recovery, general and administrative expenses for the year ended June 30, 2004 decreased by approximately $946,000 or 35% compared to the prior year. During the year ended June 30, 2004, the Company reduced its leased office space from one location of approximately 17,000 square feet to two locations totaling approximately 5,000 square feet, thereby reducing its monthly expense for leased office space to approximately $11,000 from approximately $40,000.

The settlement with former landlord, Plaza I-A Associates, related to the termination of an approximate $2.6 million remaining liability on our office lease (including back rent and future lease obligations) during the year ended June 30, 2004. This settlement expense included $360,000 for a four-year note payable (which is secured by a $360,000 certificate-of-deposit-backed standby letter of credit), approximately $143,000 in commissions and legal fees, as well as an expense related to the forfeiture of the Company’s security deposit in the face amount of approximately $62,000, partially offset by the reversal of deferred rent expense of approximately $87,000. In conjunction with the termination of the office lease discussed above, the Company moved its offices and data center. The loss on disposal of assets of approximately $300,000, resulted from the sale of excess furniture and computer equipment, partially offset by the proceeds from the sale.

Stock-based compensation of approximately $68,000 consisted of approximately $20,000 due to the conversion of an incentive stock option to a non-qualified stock option to a member of the Board of Directors and $48,000 for the vesting of warrants granted to a consultant during the year ended June 30, 2004. The grant of a non-qualified stock option to a consultant in December 2002 resulted in stock-based compensation of approximately $2,000 during the prior year.

An impairment charge of approximately $499,000 was recorded to reflect the write-off of the carrying value of assets related to our hosting service, News Solutions, and other software, which were determined to be impaired as of June 30, 2003. No such impairment was recorded in the year ended June 30, 2004.

Depreciation and amortization expense for the year ended June 30, 2004 was approximately $466,000 or 38% lower than the expense during the prior year period. The decrease was due to the disposal of two asset groups that were determined to be impaired in the fourth quarter of the fiscal year ended June 30, 2003, as well as the disposal of assets related to the office move and the move of our data center to an offsite, hosted facility.

Net interest expense for the year ended June 30, 2004 increased approximately $21,000, or 22%, due to an increase in interest expense on the bank financing agreement (entered during December 2003) and an increase in interest on capital leases.

Other expense, net of other income, decreased approximately $20,000 primarily due to the disposal of assets and the shutdown of nFactory, our subsidiary in Spain, in December 2002.

Comparison of the Fiscal Year ended June 30, 2003 to the Fiscal Year ended June 30, 2002

Revenues consist primarily of royalty revenues and fees from the licensing of content products to information distributors. During the year ended June 30, 2003, our total revenues were approximately $9,268,000, a decrease of approximately $2,979,000, or 24%, from total revenues of approximately $12,248,000 for the year ended June 30, 2002. One customer contributed approximately 10.1% of the total revenues for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2003. No one customer accounted for more than 10% of our revenues in the prior fiscal year. The decline in revenues is the direct result of business closures and consolidation among customers, primarily in the Internet and personal investor markets.

Our cost of revenues consists primarily of content licensing fees and royalties to content providers, depreciation expense on our production software, and data communication costs for the delivery of our products to customers. The cost of revenues for the year ended June 30, 2003 was approximately $3,887,000, a decrease of approximately $587,000, or 13%, from the cost of revenues for the year ended June 30, 2002. The decrease in cost is primarily due to the decrease in content royalties, approximately $560,000, as a result of decreased revenues for the period, as well as savings in the cost of data communications to receive and distribute content of approximately $73,000. The decrease in content royalties is limited by required minimum fees paid to certain information providers and, therefore, does not directly track the decrease in revenues. The decrease was partially offset by an increase in depreciation expense of approximately $46,000.

The gross profit for the year ended June 30, 2003 was approximately $5,381,000, a decrease of approximately $2,393,000, or 31%, from the prior year. The gross margin percentage declined for the year ended June 30, 2003, to approximately 58% from approximately 63% in the prior year. The decline is based on the decrease in revenues without a corresponding decrease in content royalties as discussed above.

Total operating expenses for the year ended June 30, 2003 were approximately $6,592,000, a decrease of approximately $2,458,000, or 27%, from the operating expenses for the year ended June 30, 2002. The decrease in operating expenses resulted from decreases in technical operations and support, sales and marketing, and general and administrative expenses, partially offset by an increase in depreciation and amortization expense and the impairment charge related to the disposal of software.

Technical operations and support expenses during the year ended June 30, 2003 decreased approximately $591,000, or 23%, from these expenses in the year ended June 30, 2002. This decrease resulted from a decrease in personnel and computer related expenses.

Product development expenses decreased approximately $91,000, or 25%, for the year ended June 30, 2003 compared to the year ended June 30, 2002. This decrease is the result of personnel reductions in this department. Product development activities include quality assurance, enhancements to our products and the development of proprietary news products.

Sales and marketing expenses decreased approximately $450,000, or 31%, for the year ended June 30, 2003 compared to the year ended June 30, 2002. This decrease is the result of a reduction in personnel and sales commission expense as a result of the decrease in revenues.

General and administrative expenses for the year ended June 30, 2003 decreased approximately $1,965,000, or 46%, compared to the year ended June 30, 2002. This decrease in expenses resulted from the recovery of approximately $394,000 in accrued costs at June 30, 2002 in settlement of the Infospace lawsuit, as well as reduced legal (approximately $362,000) and accounting costs (approximately $72,000) related to the case. In addition, the decrease is the result of reductions in consulting costs related to business development opportunities of approximately $317,000, and a reduction in bad debt expense of approximately $359,000 due to more successful collection efforts and reduced revenues.

Stock-based compensation of approximately $2,000 for the year ended June 30, 2003 represents options granted to a consultant for services rendered during the period. In connection with the transfer of stock options from a member of the Board of Directors to certain employees, we recorded stock-based compensation of approximately $7,000 during the year ended June 30, 2002.

Depreciation and amortization expenses not included in the cost of revenues for the year ended June 30, 2003 were approximately $54,000, or 8%, higher than these expenses during the prior year. The increase was due to additional capital expenditures related to increasing the capacity and redundancy of the production systems over the past twelve months.

Net interest expense increased approximately $12,000, or 14%, due to interest on capital leases, partially offset by a decrease in interest resulting from principal payments made on the AMASYS note.

Other expense, net of other income, increased approximately $29,000 primarily due to the disposal of assets and the shutdown of nFactory.

FINANCIAL CONDITION, LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

For the year ended June 30, 2004, we incurred an operating loss of approximately $1,085,000 and a net loss of approximately $1,212,000. At June 30, 2004, we had a working capital deficit of approximately $495,000, compared with a working capital deficit of approximately $399,000 at June 30, 2003. The increased deficit was primarily due to an increase in amounts due under the Company’s bank financing agreement and current portion of notes payable of approximately $262,000 offset by a net decrease in accrued expenses of approximately $142,000, and other net changes in current assets and liabilities of approximately $23,000. We had a net stockholders’ deficiency of approximately $323,000 at June 30, 2004, compared to net stockholders’ equity at June 30, 2003 of approximately $786,000. The decrease in stockholders’ equity is primarily due to the net loss incurred during the year ended June 30, 2004, partially offset by the exercise of stock options and stock-based compensation.

We had cash of approximately $461,000 at June 30, 2004, compared to approximately $465,000 at June 30, 2003. For the year ended June 30, 2004, operating activities generated approximately $220,000 in cash. Investing activities included capital expenditures of approximately $90,000 during the year ended June 30, 2004, primarily for the migration of our production data center to an offsite, hosted facility, and the receipt of approximately $54,000 in proceeds from the sale of fixed assets. Further, we deposited $360,000 in a certificate of deposit to secure a letter of credit from the Bank (see “Settlement Agreement and Restructuring Activities” in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements). Financing activities generated approximately $173,000 in cash from the exercise of stock options and funding from the Bank under the Financing Agreement, entered in December 2003 (see “Amount Due Under Bank Financing Agreement” in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, above), partially offset by payments made on capital leases.

The Company’s future contractual obligations and commitments as of June 30, 2004 were as follows:

	Amounts Due by Period:
	2005		2006		2007		2008		2009 andthereafter
Operating Leases	$	98,380	$	80,731	$	23,865	$	—	$	—

Total	$	203,417	$	220,950	$	150,698	$	60,000	$	856,954

Currently we are dependent on our cash reserves and accounts receivable financing through the Bank to fund operations. We incurred net losses for the years ended June 30, 2004, 2003 and 2002 and our revenue base has declined and continues to decline. Assuming no immediate increase in revenue or an infusion of capital, the Company is at risk of being unable to generate sufficient liquidity to meet its obligations. The Company utilized and continues to utilize its Financing Agreement to meet its liquidity needs. Further corporate consolidation or market deterioration affecting our customers could impair our ability to generate such revenues. No assurance may be given that we will be able to maintain the revenue base or the profitable operations that may be necessary to achieve our liquidity needs.

EBITDA, as defined below, was approximately $(153,000) for the year ended June 30, 2004, compared to EBITDA of approximately $504,000 for the year ended June 30, 2003 and $(156,000) for the year ended June 30, 2002. The decrease for the current year is the result of a decrease in operating and depreciation expenses, current year charges related to the negotiated termination of an operating lease and the related loss on disposal of assets, and an increase in stock-based compensation as well as the effect of an impairment charge which occurred in the prior year.

The table below shows the reconciliation between net loss and EBITDA.

EBITDA consists of earnings before interest expense, interest and other income, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. EBITDA does not represent funds available for management’s discretionary use and is not intended to represent cash flow from operations. EBITDA should also not be construed as a substitute for operating income or a better measure of liquidity than cash flow from operating activities, which are determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. EBITDA excludes components that are significant in understanding and assessing our results of operations and cash flows. In addition, EBITDA is not a term defined by generally accepted accounting principles, and as a result, our measure of EBITDA might not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.

However, we believe that EBITDA is relevant and useful information, which is often reported and widely used by analysts, investors and other interested parties in our industry. Accordingly, we are disclosing this information to permit a more comprehensive analysis of our operating performance, as an additional meaningful measure of performance and liquidity, and to provide additional information with respect to our ability to meet future debt service, capital expenditure and working capital requirements. See the audited financial statements and notes thereto contained elsewhere in this report for more detailed information.

RISK FACTORS THAT MAY AFFECT FUTURE RESULTS

An investment in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. The following risk factors should be considered carefully in evaluating Comtex News Network and our business. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also impair our business operations. Our financial condition, operating results and the trading price of our common stock could be materially, adversely affected due to any of these risks, in which case you could lose all or part of your investment. In assessing these risks, you should also refer to the other information in this and our other public filings, including our financial statements and notes thereto.

We Are Dependent On Cash Reserves and a Bank Financing Agreement and Have Experienced A Declining Cash Balance

Currently we are dependent on our cash reserves to fund operations, and during fiscal 2004 we entered into a limited accounts receivable financing facility with Silicon Valley Bank. However, we have incurred net losses for the years ended June 30, 2003 and 2004 and our revenue base has been declining. Our ability to meet our liquidity needs on a long-term basis depends on our ability to generate sufficient revenues and cash to cover our current obligations and to pay down our long-term obligations. No assurance may be given that we will be able to maintain the revenue base or the size of profitable operations that may be necessary to achieve our short-term or long-term liquidity needs.

The trading price of our Common Stock has been, and probably will continue to be, subject to wide fluctuations and limited trading volume. The shares are traded on the OTCBB. The stock is not followed by any security analysts and has a limited and unpredictable number of market makers. During fiscal year 2004, the closing prices of our Common Stock ranged from $.14 to $.35. In addition to the foregoing, the stock price may also fluctuate in response to a number of events and factors, such as the following:

• quarterly variations in operating results

• announcements of technological innovations or new products by us or our competitors

• the operating and stock price performance of other companies that investors may deem comparable

• news reports relating to trends in our markets.

Potential Acquisitions, Mergers and/or Strategic Investments May Result In Increased Expenses, Difficulties In Integrating Target Companies and Diversion Of Management’s Attention

• diversion of management’s attention during the acquisition/merger process

• costs, delays and difficulties of integrating the acquired company’s operations, technology and personnel into our operations

• adverse affect on earnings due to amortizing any intangible assets acquired

• issuance of new equity securities that dilute the holdings of existing stockholders

• uncertainty of working with new employees and customers.

Our Executive Officers, Directors And 5% Or Greater Stockholders Significantly Influence All Matters Requiring Stockholder Vote

Item 14. Principal Accountant Fees and Services

Our Audit Committee is responsible for appointment of the Company’s independent auditors. During the year ended June 30, 2004 the Company engaged Goldstein Golub Kessler LLP and ceased using Ernst & Young LLP to conduct its annual audit and quarterly reviews of the financial statements and to provide services in connection with the SEC proxy statement filing. Additionally, the Company engaged the services of Envision Business Solutions LLC to perform its tax compliance work for the years ended June 30, 2004 and 2003.

The following table sets forth the aggregate fees billed to the Company by its principal accountants for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2004 and 2003.

	Fiscal Year Ended June 30,
	2004		2003
Audit Fees	$	53,500	$	85,139
Tax Compliance Fees		8,037		7,838
Total Fees	$	61,537	$	92,976

The Audit Committee’s policy is to pre-approve all audit and non-audit services provided by the independent auditors, either by approving an engagement prior to the engagement or pursuant to a pre-approval policy with respect to particular services. These services may include audit services, review services, and other services. The independent auditors and management are required to periodically report to the full Audit Committee regarding the extent of services provided by the independent auditors in accordance with the pre-approval, and the fees for the services performed to date.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that Comtex News Network, Inc. will continue as a going concern. As more fully described in Note 2, the Company has incurred recurring operating losses and has a working capital deficiency. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 2. The financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

1.	THE COMPANY

Comtex News Network, Inc. (the “Company” or “Comtex”), ~~based in the United States,~~ is a leading wholesaler of electronic real-time news and content to major financial and business information distributors. Comtex enhances and standardizes news and other content received from newswire services and publishers in order to provide editorially superior and technically uniform products to its customers. The customers then package, integrate and distribute these products to their end-users. Comtex processes unique real-time news stories each day. Processing includes adding stock ticker symbols, indexing by keyword and category, and converting the diverse publisher materials and formats received into XML, the industry standard delivery format.

Consistent with standard practice in the information aggregation industry, the Company generally has renewable long-term contractual relationships with those information providers and information distributors with which it does business. The Company generates revenues primarily from charges to distributors for the licensing of enhanced content, including CustomWires, TopNews products and publishers’ full feeds. Distributor licenses typically consist of minimum royalty commitments and fixed fees for data communications and support. Royalties are based upon ~~our~~the customers’ business and revenue models such that success in their chosen markets generates increasing revenues for the Company. Fees and royalties from information distributors comprise the majority of the Company’s revenues. Fees and royalties due to information providers, along with telecommunications costs and employee payroll costs, comprise the majority of the Company’s costs and expenses. During the 2009 fiscal year, Comtex formed a wholly owned subsidiary, LeGarde Capital Management LLC, whose financial results were not material to the Company’s fiscal 2009 financial performance. Intercompany transactions have been eliminated. The Company operates and reports in one segment, information services.

~~AMASYS Corporation, (“AMASYS”) (the successor corporation to Infotechnology, Inc., “Infotech”), a Delaware corporation, legally or beneficially controls~~ 2~~,153,437 (approximately 16%) of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company~~. InSUMMARY ~~February~~OF ~~2002,~~SIGNIFICANT ~~C.W.~~ACCOUNTING Gilluly, Ed.D., the Chairman of the Board of Directors of both the Company and AMASYS, and his spouse, (the “Gillulys”) exercised an option to acquire 2,130,503 shares owned by AMASYS and exercised an option to acquire an additional 2,192,503 shares from the Company. POLICIES

2. GOING CONCERN

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As shown in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, the Company has incurred recurring net losses for the years ended June 30, 2004, 2003 and 2002 and a continued decline in its revenue base. In addition, the Company has a working capital deficit of approximately $495,000 and $399,000 at June 30, 2004 and 2003, respectively, and a stockholders’ deficiency of approximately $323,000 at June 30, 2004. The future operation of the Company is dependent upon its ability to generate positive cash flows from operations to cover its current and long-term obligations.

During the year ended June 30, 2004, management continued to implemented major cost reductions. Additionally, management intends to focus on aggressively producing new and revised products that are economically useful in the marketplace in order to support a stable pricing environment and market demand. No assurance may be given that Comtex will be able to maintain the revenue base or the size of profitable operations that may be necessary to continue as a going concern.

The financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the general accounts of ~~Comtex~~the ~~News~~Company ~~Network, Inc.~~ and its wholly owned subsidiary ~~nFactory Comtex~~, ~~S.L. (“nFactory”).~~LeGarde ~~All~~Capital ~~significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

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 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.

Revenue Recognition

~~Information~~The ~~services revenues are recognized as services are rendered based on contractual terms such as usage, fixed fee, percentage of distributor revenues or other pricing models. Effective April 1, 2001, the~~ Company ~~changed~~recognizes ~~its method of accounting for~~ revenue ~~recognition~~ in accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) ~~101 and SAB~~ 104, Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements. ~~Previously,~~Information ~~the~~services ~~Company~~revenues are recognized ~~revenue~~as ~~for~~services ~~start-up~~are ~~fees~~rendered ~~upon~~based ~~execution~~on ofcontractual aterms ~~contract~~such ~~for~~as ~~content~~usage, ~~services.~~fixed ~~The~~fee, ~~Company~~percentage ~~routinely completed implementation~~ of ~~its~~distributor ~~content~~revenues ~~feed~~or toother ~~the~~pricing ~~customer at the time of execution~~models. The Company ~~now~~ defers start-up fee revenues and recognizes revenue over the initial term of contracts for content services. ~~The cumulative effect of the change was not material to the financial statements of the Company.~~ Amounts received in advance are deferred and recognized over the service period.

Cash Credit Risk

The Company maintains ~~cash~~deposits in ~~bank~~several ~~deposit~~financial institutions. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation provides coverage for accounts ~~which~~of up to $250,000 atthrough ~~times~~December 31, ~~exceed~~2013. ~~federally~~In addition certain funds are held in brokerage accounts which are insured ~~limits~~by SIPC and additional private coverage totaling $1 million. ~~The~~At ~~Company~~June ~~has~~30, ~~not~~2009, ~~experienced~~approximately $393,000 ~~any~~of ~~losses~~the onCompany’s ~~these~~cash ~~accounts.~~was in excess of insured limits.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable are reported at their outstanding unpaid principal balances reduced by an allowance for doubtful accounts. The Company estimates doubtful accounts based on historical bad debts, factors related to specific customers’ ability to pay and current economic trends. The Company writes off accounts receivable against the allowance when a balance is determined to be uncollectible.

Foreign Currency Translation

The Company has designated the Euro as the functional currency of its wholly-owned subsidiary in Spain. Accordingly, assets and liabilities are translated from the Euro into U.S. dollars at the end of period exchange rate, and revenues and expenses are translated at average monthly exchange rates. Foreign currency translation gains and losses were accumulated in stockholders’ equity and reflected as a component of other comprehensive income or loss. Due to the termination of nFactory’s operations on December 31, 2002, the foreign currency translation adjustment balance was removed from stockholders’ equity and reported as a loss in the consolidated statement of operations. Total comprehensive loss for the years ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 was approximately $1,334,000 and $1,364,000, respectively.

Research and Development

The Company conducts ongoing research and development in the areas of product enhancement and quality assurance. Such costs are expensed as incurred. Product development costs for the fiscal years ended June 30, ~~2004,~~2009 ~~2003~~ and ~~2002~~2008 were approximately $~~215~~67,000, ~~$272,000,~~ and $~~363~~307,000, respectively, and are included in technical operations and support in the ~~consolidated~~ ~~statement~~consolidated statements of operations.

Advertising

The Company engages in advertising and promotional activities to promote its products and services. Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising costs for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2009 and 2008 were approximately $2319,000, and $1630,000, respectively and ~~$60,000~~are ~~for~~included ~~the~~in ~~fiscal~~sales ~~years~~and ~~ended~~marketing ~~June~~in ~~30,~~the ~~2004,~~consolidated ~~2003~~statements ~~and~~of ~~2002, respectively~~operations.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred and the cost of renewals and betterments are capitalized.

Depreciation and ~~amortization,~~ ~~which includes the~~ amortization ~~of assets under capital leases,~~ are computed using the straight-line method over the estimated lives of the related assets— - five years for furniture and fixtures, computer equipment and software development and three years for purchased software. Leasehold improvements are amortized using the straight-line method over the lesser of the lease term or the estimated useful lives of the related assets.

Other Investments

In general, investments in which the Company owns less than 20% are accounted for on a cost basis, and investments in which the Company owns 20% to 50% of the voting stock or otherwise exercises significant influence over the investee would be accounted for using the equity method of accounting. During the year ended June 30, 2009, the Company purchased 500,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock (the “Preferred Stock”) of PastFuture, Inc. (“PFI”), a privately held company which developed and maintains an advertising-based internet ‘social gadget’ website for individuals to post their evaluation and experience with new electronic devices. The shares of Preferred Stock purchased by the Company are convertible, and have a non-cumulative dividend rate of 8% calculated on the invested dollar amount. The shares represent approximately 18% of the total shares of Series A Preferred, and vote on a one to one basis with the common stockholders. The Company’s Series A shares represent approximately 4.5% of the total voting shares of PFI. In addition, a combination of the common stockholders and the Series A Preferred stockholders were granted the right to elect two directors out of a total of five. The Company’s President and CEO, Chip Brian, was elected to serve as one of these two directors. Management does not believe the Company has the ability to exercise significant influence over PFI and has accounted for its investment in the Series A Preferred shares at cost.

Software for Internal Use

The Company capitalizes certain costs incurred in the development of internal use software pursuant to the provisions of AICPA Statement of Position No. 98-1 (“SOP 98-1”), Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software for Internal Use. In accordance with SOP 98-1, the Company capitalizes internal software development costs incurred during the application development stage. Software development costs incurred prior to or subsequent to the application development stage are expensed as incurred.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company evaluates, on a quarterly basis, long-lived assets to be held and used, including capitalized software, for impairment in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. The evaluation is based on certain impairment indicators, such as the nature of the assets, the future economic benefit of the assets, any historical or future profitability measurements, as well as other external market conditions or factors that may be present. If these impairment indicators are present or other factors exist that indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable, then an estimate of the ~~undiscounted~~discounted value of expected future operating cash flows is used to determine whether the asset is recoverable and the amount of any impairment is measured as the difference between the carrying amount of the asset and its estimated fair value. The fair value is estimated using valuation techniques such as market prices for similar assets or discounted future operating cash flows.

During fiscal year 2003, the Company determined that two asset groups were impaired and the Company recorded an impairment charge of approximately $499,000 in the consolidated statement of operations. Discounted future operating cash flows were used in estimating the fair value of the asset groups.

Restructuring Activities

Restructuring activities are accounted for in accordance with SFAS No. 146, Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities. SFAS 146 specifies that a liability for a cost associated with an exit or disposal activity is incurred when the definition of a liability in Concepts Statement 6, Elements of Financial Statements, is met. The Company implemented SFAS 146 in October 2002 related to the termination of nFactory’s operations, as discussed in Note 8.

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. Under this method, deferred tax liabilities and assets are determined based on the difference between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities using the enacted tax rates in effect for the period in which the differences are expected to reverse. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when the Company cannot make the determination that it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the related tax asset will be realized. The effective tax rate for year ended June 30, 2009 is higher than the anticipated statutory rate because the Company records state income taxes on a cash basis.

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:

	Fiscal Year Ended June 30,
	2004	2003	2002
Risk free rate of interest	3.56% to 4.71%	3.25% to 4.82%	4.09% to 4.82%

Expected Volatility	1.50	1.10 to 1.23	1.10 to 1.23

The Company accounts for non-employee stock-based awards in which goods or services are the consideration received for the equity instruments based on the fair value of the equity instruments issued, based on the fair value of the equity instruments issued in accordance with the Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF), EITF Issue 96-18, Accounting for Equity Instruments That Are Issued To Other Than Employees For Acquiring, or in Conjunction With Selling Goods or Services.

Risks and Uncertainties

Financial instruments, which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk, consist principally of accounts receivable. The Company periodically performs credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition and generally does not require collateral on accounts receivable. For the fiscal year ended June 30, ~~2004~~2009, two ~~one~~ of the Company’s customers accounted for approximately 1315.32% and 15.1% of gross revenues. ~~For~~and ~~the~~as ~~fiscal~~of ~~year ended~~ June 30, ~~2003~~2009, ~~one~~the ofaccounts ~~the~~receivable ~~Company’s~~from these customers accounted for ~~approximately~~20.5% 10and 19.12% of gross ~~revenues~~accounts receivable.

The Company maintains reserves on accounts receivable and, to date, credit losses have not exceeded management’s expectations.

Earnings per Common Share

~~Basic~~Earnings ~~earnings~~ per common share ~~(“EPS”)~~ is presented in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 128, “Earnings ~~per~~Per Share” (“EPS”). Basic EPS excludes dilution for potentially dilutive securities and is computed by dividing ~~net~~ income ~~(loss)~~available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock and resulted in the issuance of common stock.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Accounts receivable, accounts payable and other accrued expenses and other current assets and liabilities are carried at amounts which reasonably approximate their fair values because of the relatively short maturity of those instruments. It is not practical to estimate the fair value of the Company’s Long-term Note Payable to Affiliate due to its unique nature. The fair value of the Company’s other long-term debt approximates its financial statement carrying amount based on interest rates for similar borrowings.

~~F-11~~Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Statement No. 157, Fair Value Measurements, establishes a framework for measuring fair value. That framework provides a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under FASB Statement No. 157 are described as follows:

COMTEX NEWS NETWORK, INC.


Level 1	Inputs to the valuation methodology are unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the Company has the ability to access.

Level 2	Inputs to the valuation methodology include:

	-	quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets;

	-	quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets;

	-	inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability;

	-	inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.

	If the asset or liability has a specified (contractual) term, the Level 2 input must be observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.

Level 3	Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.

~~NOTES~~The TOasset ~~CONSOLIDATED~~or ~~FINANCIAL~~liability’s ~~STATEMENTS—(Continued)~~fair value measurement level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Valuation techniques used need to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs.

~~JUNE~~Following ~~30,~~is ~~2004~~a description of the valuation methodologies used for Company assets measured at fair value.

~~Recent~~Cash ~~Pronouncements~~and cash equivalents: Cash and cash equivalents are stated at cost plus accrued interest, which approximate fair value. Cash equivalents are high-quality, short-term money market instruments with an original maturity of three months or less and consist of time deposits with U.S. commercial banks and money market fund investments.

In December 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued interpretation No. 46 (“FIN 46”), (revised December 2003), Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, originally issued in January 2003. FIN 46 expanded the criteria for consolidation in determining whether a variable interest entity should be consolidated by a business entity, and requires existing unconsolidated variable interest entities (which include, but are not limited to, Special Purpose Entities, or SPEs) to be consolidated by their primary beneficiaries if the entities do not effectively disperse risks among the parties involved. The interpretation applies immediately to variable interest entities created after January 31, 2003 and applied in the fiscal year or interim period beginning after December 31, 2003, to variable interest entities in which an enterprise holds a variable interest that is acquired before February 1, 2003. The adoption of FIN 46 does not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations. 29

10The Company is using the modified prospective transition method. ~~STOCK~~Under ~~OPTION~~this ~~PLANS~~method, compensation cost recognized for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2009 and 2008 includes: (a) compensation costs for all share based payments granted prior to, but not yet vested as of July 1, 2005, based on grant-date fair value estimated in accordance with the original provisions of Statement 123, and (b) compensation cost for all share-based payments granted subsequent to July 1, 2005, based on the grant-date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of 123(R). Results for prior periods have not been restated. As a result of adopting Statement 123(R) on July 1, 2005, the Company’s income before income taxes and net income for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2009 and 2008 was $0 and $3,297, respectively, lower than if it had continued to account for share-based compensation under APB Opinion 25. Basic earnings per share would have been $0.01 and $0.05 for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, had the Company not adopted SFAS 123(R) compared to $0.01 and $0.05, respectively, for basic income per share with the adoption. The adoption of Statement 123(R) had no effect on cash flow from operations and cash flow from financing activities for the years ended June 30, 2009 and 2008.

The Company’s 2003 Incentive Stock Plan (the “2003 Plan”) and 1995 Stock Option Plan (the “1995 Plan”) provide for both incentive stock options within the meaning of Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and non-qualified stock options to purchase shares by key employees, consultants and directors of the Company.

The exercise price of an incentive stock option is required to be at least equal to 100% of the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant (110% of the fair market value in the case of options granted to employees who are 10% shareholders). The exercise price of a non-qualified stock option is required to be not less than the par value, nor greater than the fair market value, of a share of the Company’s common stock on the date of the grant.

Item 9.	Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure

None.


Item 9A.	Controls and Procedures

Under the supervision, and with the participation of management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Corporate Controller, we evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) at the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Corporate Controller concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that the Company files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. There has been no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the Company’s fourth quarter of fiscal year 2009 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Our system of internal control is designed under the supervision of management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Accounting Officer, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of our financial reporting and the preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements for external reporting purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”).

Our internal control over financial reporting includes policies and procedures that pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect transactions and dispositions of assets; provide reasonable assurances that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP, and that receipts and expenditures are made only in accordance with the authorization of management and the Board of Directors of the Company and provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on our financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that the controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or that the degree of compliance with policies and procedures may deteriorate.

As of June 30, 2009, management assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based upon the framework established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Based upon its assessment, management believes that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2009 is effective using these criteria.

This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management’s report in this annual report.

The Board of Directors held a total of seven meetings during the Company’s fiscal year ended June 30, 2009. Each director attended in person or telephonically at least 80% of the meetings held.

Committees of the Board of Directors

The Audit Committee

The Audit Committee, which held five meetings during fiscal year 2009, is comprised of Messrs. Lynch, Howard and VanBennekom. The Audit Committee selects and engages our independent registered public accounting firm, reviews and evaluates our audit and control functions, reviews the results and scope of the audit and other services provided by our independent registered public accounting firm, and performs such other duties as may from time to time be determined by the Board of Directors.

We have reviewed and discussed with management the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2009;

We have discussed with the independent registered public accounting firm the matters required to be discussed by Statement on Auditing Standards No. 61; and

We have received the written disclosures and the letter from the independent registered public accounting firm required by Independence Standards Board Standard No. 1, “Independence Discussions with Audit Committees,” and have discussed with the registered public accounting firm their independence.

Based on the review and discussions referred to above, we recommend to the Board of Directors that the audited consolidated financial statements be included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2009.


	Submitted by the Audit Committee
	Robert J. Lynch, Jr., Chairman
	William J. Howard
	Pieter VanBennekom

The preceding report on Audit Committee procedures shall not be deemed incorporated by reference into any of our previous filings under the Securities Act of 1933 or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 which might incorporate filings made by us under those acts, nor will such report be incorporated by reference into any future filings made by us under those acts, except to the extent that we specifically incorporate this information by reference.

The Compensation Committee

The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors, which held five meetings during fiscal year 2009, is comprised of Messrs. Howard, Hendricks, Lynch, and VanBennekom. The Compensation Committee evaluates management’s recommendations and makes its own recommendations to the Board of Directors concerning the compensation of the Company’s executive officers. It is also responsible for the formulation of the Company’s executive compensation policy and the research, analysis and subsequent recommendation regarding the administration of the Company’s 1995 Stock Option Plan, which expired in October 2005, and the 2003 Stock Incentive Plan.

Compliance with Internal Revenue Code Section 162(M)

Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code disallows a tax deduction to publicly held companies for compensation paid to certain of their executive officers, to the extent that compensation, whether payable in cash or stock, exceeds $1 million per covered officer in any fiscal year. The limitation applies only to compensation that is not considered to be performance-based. Non-performance-based compensation paid to our executive officers for the 2009 fiscal year did not exceed the $1 million limit per officer, and the Compensation Committee does not anticipate that any non-performance-based compensation payable to the executive officers for the 2009 fiscal year will exceed that limit. Because it is unlikely that the actual compensation payable to any of our executive officers in the foreseeable future will approach the $1 million limit, the Compensation Committee has decided at this time not to take any action to limit or restructure the elements of cash compensation payable to the executive officers. The Compensation Committee shall reconsider this decision should the individual cash compensation of any executive officer ever approach the $1 million level.

The preceding report on executive compensation shall not be deemed incorporated by reference into any of our previous filings under the Securities Act of 1933 or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 which might incorporate filings made by us under those acts, nor will such report be incorporated by reference into any future filings made by us under those acts, except to the extent that we specifically incorporate this information by reference.

The Executive Committee

The Executive Committee of the Board of Directors, which held no meetings during fiscal year 2009, is comprised of Messrs. VanBennekom, Hendricks and Lynch. The Executive Committee is chartered to act in place of the full Board between Board meetings, if actions are required, and to fulfill the function of reviewing any initial merger and acquisition and/or partnering proposals.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Board of Directors, which held no meetings during fiscal year 2009, is comprised of Messrs. Hendricks, Howard and VanBennekom. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee meets in order to evaluate and nominate candidates for membership in the Board of Directors and to serve as officers of the Company.

Attendance at Annual Meetings of Stockholders

The Company does not have a policy regarding director attendance at annual meetings of stockholders.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

The Common Stock of the Company is registered with the SEC pursuant to Section 12(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”). The officers and directors of the Company and beneficial owners of greater than 10% of the Company’s Common Stock are required to file reports on Forms 3, 4 and 5 with the SEC disclosing beneficial ownership and changes in beneficial ownership of the Common Stock. SEC rules require disclosure in the Company’s Proxy Statement or Annual Report on Form 10-K of the failure of an officer, director or 10% beneficial owner of the Company’s Common Stock to file a Form 3, 4, or 5 on a timely basis. Based on the Company’s review of such ownership reports, the Company believes that no officer, director or 10% beneficial owner of the Company failed to file such ownership reports on a timely basis for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2009.

Code of Ethics

The Company has adopted a Code of Ethics (the “Code”) that is applicable to the officers, directors and employees of the Company, including the Company’s principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller, or persons performing similar functions. The Code is available on our website and amendments to and waivers from the Code will also be disclosed on the Company’s website.

Stock Option Plans

In October 1995, the Board of Directors approved the Comtex News Network, Inc. 1995 Stock Option Plan, which was approved by stockholders in December 1995. In July 2003, the Board of Directors approved the Comtex News Network, Inc. 2003 Incentive Stock Plan, which was approved by stockholders in October 2003.

On December 10, 2002, Comtex and Infospace entered into an agreement settling the pending litigation between them, resulting in a payment of $200,000 to Infospace. Pursuant to this agreement, the parties entered into mutual releases and each party denied liability to the other party. Based on this settlement, the Company reversed $394,000 in accrued costs at June 30, 2002 as a reduction in general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statement of operations for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2003. 50

On April 15, 2004, each of the Company’s former Chairman/CEO and President, both of whom resigned on February 5, 2004, filed demands for arbitration against the Company related to the terms of their employment agreements. The demands allege a breach of the employment agreements and request payment of approximately $129,000 to the former employees. The Company denies the allegations and intends to vigorously defend this action.

The Company is also involved in routine legal proceedings occurring in the ordinary course of business, which in the aggregate are believed by management to be immaterial to the Company’s financial condition.
