Item
1. Business.
General
Table
Trac, Inc. (the “Company” or “Table Trac”) is a Nevada Corporation, formed on
June 27, 1995, with principal offices in Minnetonka, Minnesota.
The
Company has developed and patented (U.S. patent # 5,957,776) a proprietary
information and management system (Table Trac) that automates and monitors the
operations of casino table games. In addition to table games management, Table
Trac has been adding functionality to related casino system modules for guest
rewards and loyalty club, marketing analysis, guest service, promotions
administration / management, vault/cage management and audit / accounting.
Aggregated together, all of these modules have become the “Casino Trac” product,
a full featured Casino Management System (CMS) offering a powerful combination
of value, efficiency and reliability for casinos looking to add or upgrade their
casino systems.
With its
newly developed web services based technology, Table Trac is now offering to its
customers, systems of uncompromising efficiency, reliability and value. Table
Trac is positioned to continue gaining customers while competing for a broad
cross section of casinos that are seeking to reduce the cost of their systems
and improve the reliability and accountability of their operations.
With a
focus on the Company’s expanding marketing efforts and trade show presence, we
are working to expand our name recognition within the gaming segment in order to
capitalize on a rising demand for our affordable solutions.
TABLE TRAC
INSTALLATIONS
Table
Trac currently has systems installed with on-going support and maintenance
contracts at 22 casinos in Minnesota, Wisconsin, Florida, Oklahoma, Central
America, and South America.
AVAILABILITY
OF TABLE TRAC
Table
Trac systems are available for purchase from the Company to any legal gambling
casino in the U.S. and most legal casinos operating outside the U.S. Systems are
purchased, installed and sold with a monthly license and maintenance contract
whereby Table Trac performs required maintenance on its systems to assure
trouble-free operations.
MANUFACTURING
CAPABILITIES
The
Company designs and manufactures its own Table Trac table units and gaming
machine interface boards, using the services of third party electronics assembly
houses. The Company is aware of local electronic manufacturers offering
equivalent manufacturing capability, whose services the Company could readily
hire as needed.
TRADEMARKS AND
PATENTS
The
Company filed for its provisional patent application in August 1995, and filed
for its Final Application in August 1996. This application was approved and
issued on September 28, 2000, as patent number 5,957,776.
The
Company filed to register its trademark (“TABLE TRAC”) in September 1996. The
trademark was issued on September 7, 2000, as trademark number 2,275,137. A
re-application for this mark has been filed.
ENVIRONMENTAL
COMPLIANCE
The
Company believes that it is in compliance with all current federal and state
environmental laws.
EMPLOYEES
As of
December 31, 2009, the Company had 10 full-time employees and engaged the
full-time services of 2.5 contract specialists. As of December 31, 2008, the
Company had 12 full-time employees and engaged the full-time services of 2
contract specialists.
COMPETITION
In many
ways, the woes of the economy caught up to the gaming industry in 2009, and it
did affect all of the systems companies, including Table Trac. The primary
market for Table Trac – small to mid-size casinos – were not immune from the
downturn in the economy as fewer patrons visited casinos all across the country.
More so, many operational and marketing budgets in the gaming industry at the
operations level – of which Table Trac relies on for its system sales – were
constrained in these past 12 months. In one of our jurisdictions, Alabama, all
charity bingo operations in that state were closed down by the Governor, and
with it, our assets in the Bada Bingo Casino. That said, on a comparative basis,
Table Trac survived in much better shape than many of our competitors. One of
our biggest competitors lost their financing arm, and as a result, have been
pushed to “cash only” sales. Table Trac has done an excellent job of managing
its budget and cash, and many new opportunities have surfaced that are in need
of financing, and we are in the enviable position of being able to provide it.
Our systems sales prospects will be discussed in the Recent Developments
section, but what we are now seeing is that which is beginning to provide
separation between Table Trac and its competitors: the internal development of
our technology and our ancillary products which is giving us both a state of the
art reputation as well as an additional revenue source. Table Trac has developed
exciting promotional kiosk products, an upgraded version of its software, new
tiering products for our customers, innovative marketing programs, TT TV
programs, and other creations that are keeping us ahead of the
curve.
BUSINESS
SEGMENTS
The
Company operates as one reporting segment.
RECENT
DEVELOPMENTS
Table
Trac’s new developments in the areas of software development, technology
development, new products, and new marketing promotions and products for
customers have been mentioned in the Competition section. In the last quarter of
2009, Table Trac made many significant advances in its corporate structure. We
began implementation of Sarbanes/Oxley, new policies and procedures manuals, new
company employee handbook, and have added two additional independent Board
members with new committees and responsibilities, to name a few. Most recently,
we created a new set of marketing and sales materials highlighting our product
offerings and the Company. These materials have also been prepared in
Spanish to capitalize on our growing presence and potential opportunities in the
Caribbean and Latin America gaming markets. In August 2009, we presented and
showcased our products and offerings at the Oklahoma Indian Gaming Association
Trade Show. The G2E show was also very successful in regard to establishing new
and valuable contacts in new jurisdictions. Last month, we were represented at
the Caribbean Gaming show, and we are going to have an impressive booth
presentation at the NIGA show in San Diego next month. Last month we announced a
letter of intent for a systems sale in Deadwood, S.D. Our paperwork is awaiting
approval from the South Dakota Gaming Commission. We are very optimistic about
the receptivity to Table Trac from several Tribal casinos in Montana. In Ohio,
we met with state officials to demonstrate and discuss the robustness of our
casino management system as a central monitoring system alternative for that
jurisdictions’ burgeoning racino market. We are in final negotiations with
another customer in Oklahoma, and have recently met with yet another potential
customer there. We do have presentations set with prospects in California, and
have people in place to sell our products in the state of Washington. Perhaps
our biggest potential opportunity is in Alabama, where political unrest has held
off gaming development, but when it does clear up, and we’re told it will, we
have great opportunities with key personnel and contacts. We are even seeing
some interest in Mexico. Where 2009 was a slowdown for Table Trac’s expansion,
we are very excited and optimistic about 2010. A 3 for 1 stock split was
approved at the Shareholder meeting in December 2009, and we have been waiting
for the right time, with the right news to put it into effect. We have been
interviewing Investor Relations firms to provide the strength and support we are
seeking in a post split stock market.
Item
2. Properties.
We lease
office space in Minnetonka, Minnesota, pursuant to a lease that expires in May
2011. We believe our facilities will be sufficient to meet our current
requirements and that additional space at or near the current location will be
available at a reasonable cost if additional space is required in the
future.

7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operation.
The
following discussion should be read in conjunction with our audited financial
statements and related notes that appear elsewhere in this filing.
Cautionary
Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
Some of
the statements made in this section of our report are forward-looking
statements. These forward-looking statements generally relate to and are based
upon our current plans, expectations, assumptions and projections about future
events. Our management currently believes that the various plans, expectations,
and assumptions reflected in or suggested by these forward-looking statements
are reasonable. Nevertheless, all forward-looking statements involve risks and
uncertainties and our actual future results may be materially different from the
plans, objectives or expectations, or our assumptions and projections underlying
our present plans, objectives and expectations, which are expressed in this
section.
In light
of the foregoing, prospective investors are cautioned that the forward-looking
statements included in this filing may ultimately prove to be inaccurate-even
materially inaccurate. Because of the significant uncertainties inherent in such
forward-looking statements, the inclusion of such information should not be
regarded as a representation or warranty by Table Trac, Inc. or any other person
that our objectives, plans, expectations or projections that are contained in
this filing will be achieved in any specified time frame, if ever. We undertake
no obligation to publicly release any revisions to the forward-looking
statements or reflect events or circumstances after the date of this
document.
1.
LIQUIDITY
Management
is not aware of any trends or any known demands, commitments, events or
uncertainties that will result in or that are reasonably likely to result in the
registrant’s liquidity increasing or decreasing in any material way. Management
believes that the Company has adequate cash to meet its obligations and continue
operations for both existing customer contracts and ongoing product development
for the next twelve months.
The
Company’s cash position at December 31, 2009 was $1,320,946, an increase of
$107,993 from $1,212,953 at December 31, 2008.
Net cash
flows provided by operating activities during the year ended December 31, 2009
was $376,878 compared with net cash flows provided by operating activities of
$891,422 for the same period in 2008. This decrease of $514,544 was caused
primarily by fewer completed installations. See item 3 for additional
detail.
Net cash
flows used in investing activities was $267,943 during the year ended December
31, 2009, compared to $35,065 for the same period in 2008. This increase was
primarily due to a $250,000 loan that was made to one of our customers to help
them get their new casino operation started.
Net cash
used in financing activities was $942 during the year ended December 31, 2009,
compared to net cash flows used in financing activities of $253,559 for the same
period in 2008. The change was due to the payment of a shareholder dividend on
April 9, 2008 at $0.05 per share totaling $207,812 and the Company purchased
treasury stock of $45,747 in 2008 compared to only $942 in 2009. No dividend was
paid in 2009.
On
December 31, 2009, total stockholder’s equity was $2,421,048. This compared to a
stockholder’s equity of $2,354,792 in 2008, which is an increase of $66,256 or
3%.
2.
CAPITAL RESOURCES.
The
Company is not capital intensive. The basic product of the Company is computer
software developed by its employees. Most manufacturing is done after the
Company receives an order, so there is little product inventory held by the
Company.
3. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS, YEAR ENDED
DECEMBER 31, 2009 COMPARED TO YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2008.
The most
significant events that affected the results of operations were the result of
unusual events and significant economic changes that materially affected the
amount of reported income from the year’s operations, and occurred to three of
our existing customers as explained below:
On April
6, 2006, bingo games in Walker County, Alabama were ratified by constitutional
amendment. The operation of bingo games for prizes or money by certain nonprofit
organizations for charitable, educational, or other lawful purposes shall be
legal. On October 26, 2009, the Circuit Court of Walker County issued an order
concluding that electronic bingo in Walker County constituted the operation of
an illegal lottery. This court order affected one of the Company’s customers
causing that customer to discontinue its business operations. Prior to October
2009, the Company loaned this customer $250,000 to help them fund their business
start-up and the Company installed a Table Trac System at the Company’s cost in
return for future revenue based on a participation formula of the casino’s
earnings. Since the agreement between the customer and the Company was a
participation-based contract and the Company owned the casino tracking system
and associated hardware, the Company took immediate action to secure physical
possession of the equipment installed. The result to Table Trac Inc. profits was
a reduction to the profits from operations by $324,380, which included writing
off the $250,000 loan, $45,796 of participation revenue recorded on the accrual
basis and $28,584 of deferred system sales costs. The Company also lost the
opportunity to collect an additional $101,530 in interest earned under the
$250,000 loan agreement then in place before the Walker County judge’s
decision.
The
Company had a participation revenue agreement with another customer who filed
for Chapter 11 bankruptcy, precipitating the write off of $37,934 of accounts
receivable.
The
Company has an installment sale agreement with an international customer that
has been slow to pay and made no installment payments in 2009. The customer
experienced a fire to its property and has asked for time to recover. As such,
due to the uncertainty of collection, the Company recorded an allowance for
doubtful accounts in the 4th quarter
of 2009 in the amount of $182,054 for this customer; however, collection efforts
continue and the customer continues to promise payment.
The
previous three events are unusual to our business, not in our 15 years of
operations has any of our customers been ordered out of business or closed due
to financial difficulties. In the 2009 economy and with new regulatory
opportunities and threats arising, additional scrutiny will be given to credit
and operational worthiness before credit is extended by the Company to our
potential customers.
As a
result, $544,368 was added as operational expense for the year ended December
31, 2009 that are the result of these unusual events, compared to $0 for the
year ended December 31, 2008.
Inflation
for the previous three years ending December 31, 2009 has been negligible having
no effect on the Company’s operations. The outlook for inflation may put the
Company’s cash holdings at risk for a loss of real value. The Company will
evaluate inflation pressure and take steps to place its available cash and cash
equivalents into conservative investment vehicles.
Revenues
decreased from $ 4,621,514 in 2008 to $3,219,263 in 2009. The decrease of
$1,402,251 was due to fewer completed installations. In 2008, we installed eight
systems compared to four in 2009. Ongoing maintenance revenue has increased from
approximately $794,000 in 2008 to approximately $956,000 in 2009, an increase of
approximately $162,000 or 20%.
A
breakout of our revenue by type is as follows:

The
decrease of $1,402,251 was due to fewer completed installations along with extra
equipment and games sales offset by additional maintenance revenues from new
installations. In 2008, we installed eight systems compared to four in 2009. Our
pricing for 2009 remained consistent with 2008.
Cost of
sales decreased to $753,124 in 2009 from $1,105,501 in 2008. The decrease of
$352,377 was primarily due to fewer completed installations.

Deferred
revenues decreased from $389,297 in 2008 to $0 in 2009. The balance represents
down payments received for in-process system installations at year-end. The
deferred revenue is non-refundable and are recognized as revenue when the system
installations are completed. As of December 31, 2009, the Company was not in the
process of installing any new Table Trac systems.
The gross
margin in 2009 was $2,466,139 or 76.6% of sales compared with $3,516,013 for
2008 or 76.1% of sales in 2008. The percentage remained constant.
Total
operating expenses increased from $1,662,479 in 2008 to $2,517,556 in 2009. The
increase of $855,077 was primarily due to a significant increase in bad debt
expense totaling $515,784 as discussed above in detail, along with $85,916 in
wages and $77,590 for contractors to handle the increasing research and
development projects and Sarbanes - Oxley (SOX) 404 compliance
consultancy.
Interest
income has increased in 2009 to a net amount of $75,083 from $73,094 in 2008,
the increase of $1,989 is consistent due to our stable cash reserve balance
earning at a lower rate offset from interest earned on accounts receivable -
financed contracts remained at similar levels or slightly higher levels compared
to 2008. During 2009, the Company accrued $101,530 of interest income recorded
on the $250,000 customer note receivable and then wrote it off due to the
customer filing for bankruptcy.
The
provision for income taxes was $749,000 in 2008, for an effective rate of 38.9%,
compared to a provision for income taxes of $8,100 for an effective rate of
34.2% in 2009. The decrease in rates is primarily due to differing state
rates.
The net
income for 2009 was $15,566 compared to net income for 2008 of $1,177,628. This
was a decrease of $1,162,062.
The basic
earnings per share in 2009 was $0.004 compared to basic earnings per share of
$0.28 in 2008.

5.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates.
The
Company’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of
operations is based upon its financial statements, which have been prepared in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
The preparation of these financial statements requires the Company to make
estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities,
revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and
liabilities. On an on-going basis, the Company evaluates these estimates,
including those related to revenue recognition, bad debts, inventory valuation,
intangible assets, and income taxes. The Company bases these estimates on
historical experience and on various other assumptions that it believes are
reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for
making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are
not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these
estimates under different assumptions or conditions. The estimates and judgments
that the Company believes have the most effect on its reported financial
position and results of operations are as follows:
Revenue
Recognition
The
Company derives revenues from the sales of systems, licenses and maintenance
fees, services and participation-based agreements.
System
Sales
Revenue
from systems that have been demonstrated to meet customer specifications during
installation is recognized when evidence of an arrangement exists, the product
has been installed, title and risk of loss have transferred to the customer and
collection of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured.
System
sales, which are accounted for as multiple-element arrangements, include
multiple products and/or services. For multiple-element arrangements, the
Company allocates the revenue to each element based on their stand-alone fair
value (or in the absence of fair value, the residual method) and recognizes the
associated revenue when all revenue recognition criteria have been met for each
element.
The
Company does offer its customers contracts with extended payment terms. The
Company has established a history of successfully collecting on these contracts
under the original payment terms without making concessions. Based on past and
current collection history, all sales installment contracts are being recognized
in revenue following the “system sales” policy noted above.
Maintenance
revenue
Maintenance
revenue is recognized ratably over the contract period.
Service
revenue
Service
revenue is recognized after the services are performed and collection of the
resulting receivable is reasonably assured.
Participation
revenue
In 2009,
the Company began offering new customers a participation-based contract.
Revenues were originally determined and billed monthly based on a percentage of
the amount of money processed through the customer’s casino gaming system
utilizing the Table Trac software. After some discussion with the SEC, it was
determined that the Company would change its revenue recognition policy for
these contracts to record revenue at the time of cash collection.
Accounts
Receivable
Accounts
receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount. Any accounts receivable amount
relating to a sales installment contract greater than twelve months beyond the
calendar year end is recorded as a long term asset and is classified as
“accounts receivable, financed contracts - long term”. Management believes that
receivables, net of the allowance for doubtful accounts are fully collectible.
While the ultimate result may differ, management believes that any write off not
allowed for will not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position.
During 2009, a couple of customers declared bankruptcy, which subsequently
resulted in bad debts for the Company. The entire allowance account at December
31, 2009 consists of one international customer’s contract balance. All other
uncollectible accounts have been written-off.
Accounts

2008:

Bad Debt
Expense
Bad debt
expense – for the year ended December 31, 2009 included in selling, general and
administrative expenses was $515,784 compared to $53,648 for the year ended
December 31, 2008. This significant change relates to our write-off of an
uncollectible $250,000 customer note, and certain trade accounts totaling
$265,784 due to customer bankruptcies and past due status of payment
terms.
On
October 26, 2009, the Circuit Court of Walker County, Alabama issued an order
concluding that electronic bingo in Walker County constituted the operation of
an illegal lottery. This court order affected one of the Company’s customers
causing that customer to discontinue its business operations. Since the
agreement between the customer and the Company was a participation-based
contract and the Company owned the casino tracking system and associated
hardware, the Company took immediate action to secure physical possession of the
equipment installed. The Company recorded an impairment charge of approximately
$29,000 against the system, which had a net book value of $69,099, during the
fourth quarter of fiscal 2009. The remaining value of the system totaling
approximately $40,000 will be utilized in another future system
installations.
Inventory
Inventory
comprised of finished goods and work in process is stated at the lower of cost
or market. The first-in, first-out cost method is used to value inventory.
Inventory is reviewed annually for the lower of cost or market and obsolescence.
Any material cost found to be above market value or considered obsolete is
written down accordingly. The Company had no obsolescence reserve at December
31, 2009 and 2008.
Intangible
Asset
In March
1999, the Company received patent number 5,957,776 relating to its table game
control system. Expenses incurred in obtaining this patent are carried at cost
and are being amortized over seventeen years using the straight-line
method.
Long-lived
Assets
The
Company periodically assesses the recoverability of long-lived assets and
certain identifiable intangible assets by reviewing for impairment whenever
events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset
may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured
by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to future un-discounted net
cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered
to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by
which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets.
Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or
fair value less costs to sell.
Payroll
Effective
October 2009, the Company moved its payroll to an outside service with payments
made on 15th and last day of month; thereby eliminating the need for accrued
payroll.
Stock-based
Compensation
The
Company recognizes the cost of stock-based compensation plans and awards in
operations on a straight-line basis over the vesting period of the awards. The
Company measures and recognizes compensation expense for all stock-based payment
awards made to employees and directors. The compensation expense for the
Company’s stock-based payments is based on estimated fair values at the time of
the grant.
Income
Taxes
Income
taxes are provided for using the liability method of accounting. A deferred tax
asset or liability is recorded for all temporary differences between financial
and tax reporting. Temporary differences are the differences between the
reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax basis. Deferred tax
assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management,
it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets
will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the
effect of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.
The
Company accounts for income taxes pursuant to Financial Accounting Standards
Board guidance. This guidance prescribes a recognition threshold and a
measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of
tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits
to be recognized, a tax position must be more-likely-than not to be sustained
upon examination by taxing authorities. The Company believes its income tax
filing positions and deductions will be sustained upon examination and,
accordingly, no reserves, or related accruals for interest and penalties have
been recorded at December 31, 2009 and 2008. In accordance with the guidance,
the Company has adopted a policy under which, if required to be recognized in
the future, interest and penalties related to the underpayment of income taxes
will be classified in operating expenses in the statements of operations. The
Company has three open years of tax returns subject to examination.
6.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements.
On
September 15, 2009, the Company adopted new accounting guidance on codification
referencing that encourages the use of plain English to describe broad
accounting topic areas in an attempt to make financial statements more useful to
users and more clearly explain accounting concepts.
In
October 2009, the FASB issued an update to existing guidance on revenue
recognition for arrangements with multiple deliverables and deliverables that
include software elements effective for fiscal years beginning on or after June
15, 2010. This update will allow companies to allocate consideration received
for qualified separate deliverables using estimated selling prices for both
delivered and undelivered items when vendor-specific objective evidence or
third-party evidence is unavailable. Additional disclosures discussing the
nature of multiple element arrangements, the types of deliverables under the
arrangements, the general timing of their delivery, and significant factors and
estimates used to determine estimated selling prices are required. We will adopt
this update for new revenue arrangements entered into or materially modified
beginning January 1, 2011. The Company is currently assessing the impact on our
financial statements.
Item
7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
Our
financial instruments consist almost entirely of cash. Our only risk is the
fluctuations in interest rates which is not considered significant.
The
Company does not hold foreign currency since we do not transact business in
foreign currencies, and therefore have no currency exposure. We do not enter
into futures or forward commodity contracts since we have no market risk
exposure with respect to commodity prices.
Item 8. Financial
Statements and Supplementary Data.
REPORT
OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the
Board of Directors and Stockholders of Table Trac, Inc.
We have
audited the accompanying balance sheets of Table Trac, Inc. as of December 31,
2009 and 2008, and the related statements of income, stockholders’ equity and
cash flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We
conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Accounting
Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and
perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to
have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over
financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over
financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are
appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an
opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial
reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes
examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in
the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our
opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of Table Trac, Inc. as of December 31,
2009 and 2008, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the
years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in
the United States of America.

NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT
ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Company
Table
Trac, Inc. (the Company) was formed under the laws of the State of Nevada in
June 1995. The Company has its offices in Minnetonka, Minnesota. The Company has
developed and sells an information and management system that automates various
aspects of the operations of casino table games, Table Trac™.
The
Company provides system sales and technical support to casinos. System sales
include installation, custom casino system configuration and training. In
addition, license and technical support are provided under an annual license and
service contract.
Use of
Estimates
The
preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted
accounting principles 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 period.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Concentrations of
Risk
Cash Deposits in Excess of
Federally Insured Limits
The
Company maintains its cash balances at two financial institutions. Accounts are
insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to $250,000. The Company
had approximately $738,000 of uninsured cash balances at December 31,
2009.

Revenue
Recognition
The
Company derives revenues from the sales of systems, licenses and maintenance
fees, services and participation-based agreements.
System Sales
Revenue
from systems that have been demonstrated to meet customer specifications during
installation is recognized when evidence of an arrangement exists, the product
has been installed, title and risk of loss have transferred to the customer and
collection of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured.
System
sales, which are accounted for as multiple-element arrangements, include
multiple products and/or services. For multiple-element arrangements, the
Company allocates the revenue to each element based on their stand-alone fair
value (or in the absence of fair value, the residual method) and recognizes the
associated revenue when all revenue recognition criteria have been met for each
element.
In 2005,
the Company began offering its customers contracts with extended payment terms.
The Company has established a history of successfully collecting on these
contracts under the original payment terms without making concessions. Based on
past and current collection history, all sales installment contracts are being
recognized in revenue following the “system sales” policy noted
above.
Maintenance
revenue
Maintenance
revenue is recognized ratably over the contract period.
Service revenue
Service
revenue is recognized after the services are performed and collection of the
resulting receivable is reasonably assured.
Participation
revenue
In 2009,
the Company began offering new customers a participation-based contract.
Revenues were determined and billed monthly based on a percentage of the amount
of money processed through the customer’s casino gaming system utilizing the
Table Trac software. However, due to collectability not being reasonably
assured, participation revenue is not recognized until the cash is
collected.
Fair Value of Financial
Instruments
The
Company’s financial instruments consist of cash, accounts receivable, accounts
payable and accrued expenses. Fair value estimates are at a specific point in
time, based on relevant market information about the financial instrument. These
estimates are subjective in nature and matters of significant judgment and
therefore cannot be determined with precision. The Company considers the
carrying values of its financial instruments to approximate fair value due to
their short-term nature.
Cash and Cash
Equivalents
For
purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid
investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be
cash equivalents.
Accounts Receivable /
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
Accounts
receivable includes regular customer receivables for systems sales and on-going
monthly license and maintenance billings which is typically due within 30 days
of invoicing. The Company also, at times, depending on the customer’s credit,
has systems sales that are financed over a period of 24 to 30 months. Our
accounts receivable includes regular customer receivables and amounts from
financed contracts due within 12 months. Amounts from these contracts coming due
beyond 12 months are recorded as “Accounts receivable financed contracts –
long-term.” Our practice for systems sales is to require a down payment, with a
portion paid at the time a contract is signed and the remainder either paid 30
days after the system installation is completed or financed generally over a
period of either 24 - 30 months. Interest on the financed balance is invoiced
monthly. Payments received are applied first against unpaid interest with the
remainder applied to unpaid principal.
The
allowance for doubtful accounts is the Company’s best estimate of the amount of
probable credit losses in the Company’s existing accounts
receivable. The Company determines the allowance based on historical
write-off experience and current knowledge of specific customer matters. The
Company reviews its allowance for doubtful accounts monthly. Individual accounts
with past due balances over 90 days are specifically reviewed for
collectability. All other balances are reviewed on a pooled
basis. Account balances are charged off against accounts receivable,
as bad debts, after all means of collection have been exhausted and the
potential for recovery is considered remote.
Inventory
Inventory,
comprised of finished goods and work in process, is stated at the lower of cost
or market. The first-in, first-out cost method is used to value inventory.
Inventory is reviewed annually for the lower of cost or market and obsolescence.
Any material cost found to be above market value or considered obsolete is
written down accordingly. The Company has no obsolescence reserve at December
31, 2009 and 2008.
Property and
Equipment
Property
and equipment are stated at cost and are depreciated using the straight-line
method over the estimated useful lives of the assets which range from two to
five years. Repair and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred; major
renewals and improvements are capitalized. As items of property or equipment are
sold or retired, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from
the accounts and any gain or loss is included in operating income.
Intangible
Asset
In March
1999, the Company received patent number 5,957,776 relating to its table game
control system. Expenses incurred in obtaining this patent are carried at cost
and are being amortized over seventeen years using the straight-line
method.
Long-lived
Assets
The
Company periodically assesses the recoverability of long-lived assets and
certain identifiable intangible assets by reviewing for potential impairment
whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of
an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is
measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to future
undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such
assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is
measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the
fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of
the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell.
Income
Taxes
Income
taxes are provided for using the liability method of accounting. A deferred tax
asset or liability is recorded for all temporary differences between financial
and tax reporting. Temporary differences are the differences between the
reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax basis. Deferred tax
assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management,
it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets
will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the
effect of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.
The
Company accounts for income taxes pursuant to Financial Accounting Standards
Board guidance. This guidance prescribes a recognition threshold and a
measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of
tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits
to be recognized, a tax position must be more-likely-than not to be sustained
upon examination by taxing authorities. The Company believes its income tax
filing positions and deductions will be sustained upon examination and,
accordingly, no reserves, or related accruals for interest and penalties have
been recorded at December 31, 2009 and 2008. In accordance with the guidance,
the Company has adopted a policy under which, if required to be recognized in
the future, interest and penalties related to the underpayment of income taxes
will be classified in operating expenses in the statements of operations. The
Company has three open years of tax returns subject to examination.
Stock-based
Compensation
The
Company recognizes the cost of stock-based compensation plans and awards in
operations on a straight-line basis over the vesting period of the awards. The
Company measures and recognizes compensation expense for all stock-based payment
awards made to employees and directors. The compensation expense for the
Company’s stock-based payments is based on estimated fair values at the time of
the grant.
The
Company estimates the fair value of stock-based payment awards on the date of
grant using an option pricing model. These option pricing models involve a
number of assumptions, including the expected lives of stock options, the
volatility of the public market price for the Company’s common stock and
interest rates. The Company is using the Black-Scholes option pricing model.
Stock-based compensation expense recognized during the period is based on the
value of the portion of stock-based payment awards that are ultimately expected
to vest.
Segment
Reporting
The
Company operates as one reporting segment.
Comprehensive Income
(Loss)
Comprehensive
income (loss) includes net income (loss) and items defined as other
comprehensive income (loss). Items defined as other comprehensive income (loss)
include such items as foreign currency translation adjustments and unrealized
gains (losses) on certain marketable securities. For the year ended December 31,
2009 and 2008, the Company had no items defined as other comprehensive income
(loss).
Basic and Diluted Earnings
Per Share
Basic
earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average
shares outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted earnings per share is
computed similar to basic earnings per share except that the weighted average
shares outstanding are increased to include additional shares from the assumed
exercise of stock options or warrants, if dilutive. The number of additional
shares is calculated by assuming that outstanding stock options or warrants were
exercised and that the proceeds from the exercise were used to acquire shares of
common stock at the average market price during the reporting
period.
Recent Accounting
Pronouncements
On
September 15, 2009, the Company adopted new accounting guidance on codification
referencing that encourages the use of plain English to describe broad
accounting topic areas in an attempt to make financial statements more useful to
users and more clearly explain accounting concepts.
In
October 2009, the FASB issued an update to existing guidance on revenue
recognition for arrangements with multiple deliverables and deliverables that
include software elements effective for fiscal years beginning on or after June
15, 2010. This update will allow companies to allocate consideration received
for qualified separate deliverables using estimated selling price for both
delivered and undelivered items when vendor-specific objective evidence or
third-party evidence is unavailable. Additional disclosures discussing the
nature of multiple element arrangements, the types of deliverables under the
arrangements, the general timing of their delivery, and significant factors and
estimates used to determine estimated selling prices are required. We will adopt
this update for new revenue arrangements entered into or materially modified
beginning January 1, 2011. The Company is currently assessing the impact on our
financial statements.

In March
2009, the Company provided a $250,000 loan to a customer to help them get their
casino business started. The loan bore interest at an annual rate of 80% and was
due September 13, 2009. Beginning September 13, 2009, a $90 per day late fee was
assessed for each day the loan remained unpaid. As of September 30, 2009, the
Company had accrued interest receivable and late fees of $101,530. During the
4th
quarter of 2009, the Company wrote-off the note and interest receivable because
the casino customer had been shut down as a result of a court order reversing or
re-interpreting the constitutional amendment of 2006 providing for the legality
of bingo in the Alabama county where the customer conducted business. In
connection with this customer, the Company had also wrote-off $45,800 for past
due accounts receivable related to participation revenue earned and unreimbursed
expenses.

NOTE 7. STOCKHOLDERS’
EQUITY
In 2008,
the Company repurchased 32,200 shares of its common stock for at total purchase
cost of $45,747. In January 2009, the Company repurchased 625 additional shares
of its common stock for a total purchase cost of $942. On April 14, 2009, the
Company issued 31,825 shares of its repurchased stock to its employees through
its employee bonus program. The issuance of the 31,825 shares of treasury stock
was valued at the trading value of the Company’s common stock at the date of
issuance of $1.60 per share or $50,920 in total. The total cost of $51,632,
which includes transaction costs of $712, was recognized as stock compensation
expense in the Company’s statement of income. The difference between the initial
cost of purchase of the treasury stock and the trading value of the reissued
treasury stock of $6,365 was recorded as a credit to additional paid-in-capital
in the Company’s balance sheet. As of December 31, 2009, the Company holds 1,000
common stock shares in treasury at a total cost of $1,422 for future employee
issuances under the bonus program.
In May
2008, the Company issued 6,000 common restricted shares for consultant services
with a fair value of $15,750.
Stock
Options
In
October 2001, the Company implemented an Employee Stock Incentive Plan. This
plan provides for the issuance of options to employees to purchase shares of the
Company’s common stock at an exercise price at least equal to the fair value of
the Company’s common stock at the grant date. These options are exercisable for
a period of seven years from the date of grant. The Company has reserved
1,000,000 shares of its common stock for potential issuance under this plan. As
of December 31, 2009, 370,000 stock options were available for
grants.

10. EARNINGS PER SHARE
Earnings
per share is computed under two different methods, basic and diluted, and is
presented for all periods in which statements of operations are presented. Basic
earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average
number of shares of common stock outstanding. Diluted earnings per share is
computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of
common stock and common stock equivalents outstanding.
The
following table provides a reconciliation of the numerators and denominators
used in calculating basic and diluted earnings per share for the three and nine

The
Company sells its technologies and services to casinos in the United States, and
countries in both Central and South America. For 2009 and 2008, 90% and 64% of
the Company’s revenues were from the United States, 8% and 27% from Central
America, and 2% and 9% from South America, respectively.
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 our management, including our chief
executive officer/chief financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of the
effectiveness, as of December 31, 2009, of our disclosure controls and
procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act. The purpose of this
evaluation was to determine whether as of the evaluation date our disclosure
controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that the
information we are required to disclose in our filings with the Securities and
Exchange Commission, or SEC, under the Exchange Act (i) is recorded, processed,
summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and
forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our
chief executive officer/chief financial officer (CEO/CFO), as appropriate to
allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on this evaluation,
our management has concluded, as discussed below, that material weaknesses
existed in our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2009
and as a result, our disclosure controls and procedures were not
effective.
Notwithstanding
the material weaknesses that existed as of December 31, 2009, our CEO/ CFO has
concluded that the financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form
10-K present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position, results
of operations and cash flows of the Company in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America
(“GAAP”).
Report
of Management on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Our
management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal
control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(f) of
the Exchange Act. We have designed our internal controls to provide reasonable,
but not absolute, assurance that our financial statements are prepared in
accordance with U.S. GAAP. We assess the effectiveness of our internal controls
based on the criteria set forth in the Internal Control - Integrated Framework
developed by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway
Commission.
Because
of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not
prevent or detect misstatements. It should be noted that any system of internal
control, however well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, and
not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the system will be met. Also,
projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to
the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions,
or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may
deteriorate.
A
material weakness is a control deficiency, or combination of control
deficiencies, that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material
misstatement of annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or
detected.
In
performing the assessment, our management identified the following material
weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting as of December 31,
2009:
The
Company was not adequately monitoring sales cut-off to ensure revenue was
recorded in the proper period.
Management’s
internal control system is dependent entirely on the founder and a few key
employees. As such it has the inherent flaws of lack of segregation of duties
and being subject to time constraints of an ever expanding set of demands that
are part of growing a business. Consequently, management did not maintain
effective control relating to individual monthly closings and monthly financial
reporting process in adequately preparing account reconciliations and properly
evidencing journal entries. The Company only closes and reports
quarterly.
The
Company did not have an audit committee with a financial expert that was
actively involved with the financial reporting process during 2009 and 2008;
therefore, the Company lacks the board oversight role within the financial
reporting process. In December 2009, the Company’s shareholder voted in board
member Scott Smith, who serves as the audit committee chairman and financial
expert. During 2009, the Company formed an audit committee consisting of three
independent directors including a financial expert. The audit committee’s first
meeting was in January 2010; however, they were only active in the 2009 10-K
reporting process.
Due to
these material weaknesses, management has concluded that our internal control
over financial reporting was not effective as of December 31, 2009.
Notwithstanding the material weaknesses that existed as of December 31, 2009,
our Chief Executive Officer/Chief Financial Officer has concluded that the
financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K present fairly,
in all material respects, the financial position, results of operations and cash
flows of the Company in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States of America (“GAAP”).
Changes
in Internal Controls
Management
has made the following steps to help improve the Company’s control
structure:
In 2009,
the Company engaged the services of Internal Control and Anti-Fraud Experts
(ICAFE) to perform a formal risk assessment and design procedures and controls,
and policies along with a plan to remediate the control deficiencies that
represent material weaknesses. In addition, ICAFE provided assistance in many of
the daily accounting tasks to provide proper separation of duties. Our contract
with ICAFE ended in January 2010
In
February 2010, the Company engaged KMAS Consulting LLC. (KMAS), who is providing
a permanent part time CPA to perform the daily accounting tasks and to insure
proper separation of duties and procedures are carried out as we implement
remediation of areas that represent material weaknesses. The majority of the
preparation of the financial statements was carried out by the KMAS CPA along
with the Company’s CEO/CFO. The KMAS CPA prepared routine and non-routine
journal entries, processed certain transactions, prepared certain account
reconciliations, and prepared interim and annual financial statements (including
report combinations and footnote disclosures) in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles with review and approval by the CEO/CFO and with
financial expertise oversight of the Company’s new audit committee chairman,
Scott Smith. The Company believes it has sufficient personnel resources and
technical accounting and reporting expertise within the Company’s financial
closing and reporting functions at the time of the preparation of this form
10-K, however the Company has not had the full benefit of this expertise for the
full year of operations ended December 31, 2009.
During
the fiscal year covered by this report, we developed and began implementing our
remediation plans to address the material weaknesses in internal control over
financial reporting described in 2008 and 2009. To date, we have made progress
towards remediation, including taking steps to:
|
·
|
add
a financial expert to our board of
directors;
|
|
·
|
establish
committees of our board of directors, including an audit
committee, responsible for oversight of our internal controls
and accounting transactions;
|
|
·
|
increase
the frequency of our board of directors meetings and actively engage our
directors in the provision of oversight of our internal controls and the
review of complex or unusual accounting transactions until an audit
committee has been
established;
|
|
·
|
provide
a mechanism for the submission of anonymous reports, relating to
accounting or audit irregularities, directly to our independent director
and legal counsel;
|
|
·
|
provide
our internal audit consultant with direct access to our independent
directors and legal counsel;
|
|
·
|
included
our internal audit consultant in quarterly meetings of our board of
directors to provide a status update on our remediation plan development
and implementation as well as the effectiveness of our internal
controls;
|
|
·
|
execute
timely preparation of balance sheet account reconciliations accompanied by
sufficient supporting documentation and review and approval for validity,
completeness and accuracy performed by a competent accounting
professional;
|
|
·
|
formalize
journal entry preparation and review process to include sufficient
supporting documentation and proper review and approval prior to
recording; and
|
|
·
|
implement
a formal financial reporting process that includes review of the financial
statements by the full board of directors prior to filing with the
SEC.
|
We were
unable to conclude that the material weaknesses described in our Annual Report
on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008 and 2009 were effectively
remediated as of December 31, 2009 due to the fact that (i) less than the entire
remediation plan has been developed and implemented and (ii) an insufficient
period of time has passed for management to test and document the effectiveness
of those controls which have been newly created as part of the remediation plan
(as summarized above).
Attestation
Report
This
annual report does not include an attestation report of our independent
registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial
reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s
independent registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the
Securities and Exchange Commission that permit us to provide only management’s
report in this annual report.

Item 13. - CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND
RELATED TRANSACTIONS.
None.
BENEFICIAL
OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE
Section
16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires the Company’s officers and
directors, and persons who own more than ten percent of any registered class of
the Company’s equity securities (in our case, our common stock), to file reports
of ownership and changes in ownership with the SEC. Officers, directors and
greater-than-ten-percent stockholders are required by SEC regulations to furnish
the Company with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file.
Based
solely on review of the copies of the Forms 3, 4 and 5 (and amendments thereto)
that we received or are aware of with respect to transactions during fiscal
2008, we believe that the Company’s officers, directors and
greater-than-ten-percent beneficial owners complied with all applicable Section
16(a) filing requirements.

During
2008, the Company did not have an audit committee. During 2009, the shareholders
voted 2 additional board members and the Company now has an audit committee
composed of 3 independent directors. Our board of directors evaluates the scope
and cost of the engagement of an auditor before the auditor renders audit and
non-audit services. As a result, we do not rely on established pre-approval
policies and procedures.
