DIGITAL ANGEL CORPORATION
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
1. Basis of Presentation
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of Digital Angel Corporation and its
subsidiaries (the Company) have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted
accounting principles (GAAP) and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation
S-X under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Accordingly, they do not include all of
the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The interim
financial information in this report has not been audited. In the opinion of the Companys
management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for
fair financial statement presentation have been made. Results of operations reported for interim
periods may not be indicative of the results for the entire year. These condensed consolidated
financial statements and notes should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial
statements and notes included in the 2006 Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended, filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make certain
estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and
accompanying notes. Although these estimates are based on the knowledge of current events and
actions that we may undertake in the future, they may ultimately differ from actual results.
Included in these estimates are assumptions about allowances for inventory obsolescence, bad debt
reserves, lives of long-lived assets and intangible assets, assumptions used in Black-Scholes
valuation models, estimates of the fair value of acquired assets and the determination of whether
any impairment is to be recognized on long-lived and intangible assets, among others.
The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its
wholly-owned and majority-owned subsidiaries from the date of acquisition. All significant
intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company is
engaged in the business of developing and bringing to market proprietary technology used to
identify, locate and monitor people, animals and objects. The Company operates in two business
segments: Animal Applications and GPS and Radio Communications, which are discussed further in Note
10.
As of September 30, 2007, Applied Digital Solutions, Inc. (Applied Digital) owned 25,495,190
shares or approximately 56% of the Companys common stock.
On April 5, 2007, the Company acquired certain assets and customer contracts of McMurdo Limited
(McMurdo), a United Kingdom based subsidiary of Chemring Group Plc (Chemring), and manufacturer
of emergency location beacons. Pursuant to the agreement, Signature Industries Limited
(Signature), the Companys London based subsidiary operating in the GPS and Radio Communication
business segment, acquired certain assets of McMurdos marine electronics business, including fixed
assets, inventory, customer lists, customer and supplier contracts and relations, trade and
business names, and associated assets. For further discussion of the acquisition see Note 4.
On July 2, 2007, the Company completed the sale of its wholly-owned subsidiary, OuterLink
Corporation (OuterLink) to Newcomb Communications, Inc. (Newcomb). OuterLink provides
satellite-based mobile asset tracking and data messaging systems used to manage the deployment of
aircraft and land vehicles. Pursuant to the agreement, the Company sold all of the issued and
outstanding shares of stock of OuterLink. As a result, its operations are included as part of the
Companys discontinued operations for all periods presented. For further discussion of the sale see
Note 5.
2. Merger Agreement
On August 8, 2007, the Company, Applied Digital, and Digital Angel Acquisition Corp., a Delaware
corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Applied Digital entered into an Agreement and Plan of
Reorganization (the Merger Agreement), pursuant to which Digital Angel Acquisition Corp. will be
merged with and into the Company, with the Company surviving and becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary
of Applied Digital (the Merger). Each of the boards of directors of the Company and Applied
Digital unanimously approved the Merger Agreement but the consummation of the Merger remains
subject to customary conditions, including the approval of the issuance of shares in connection
with the Merger by the stockholders of Applied Digital and approval of the Merger Agreement by a
majority of the stockholders of the Company and by a majority of the minority stockholders of the
Company. A special meeting of stockholders of Applied Digital and a special and annual meeting of
the Companys stockholders are scheduled to be held on November 27, 2007 to approve the Merger.
Upon consummation of the Merger, each outstanding share of the Companys common stock not currently
owned by Applied Digital (or its affiliates) will be converted into 1.4 shares of common stock of
Applied Digital. The shares of Applied Digital common stock to be issued to the Companys
stockholders in connection with the Merger are expected to represent approximately 28.7% of the
outstanding shares of Applied Digitals common stock immediately following the
7
DIGITAL ANGEL CORPORATION
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) (continued)
2. Merger Agreement (continued)
consummation of the Merger, based on the number of shares of Applied Digital and Digital Angel
common stock outstanding on November 5, 2007. In addition, each of the Companys stock options and
warrants existing on the effective date of the Merger will be assumed by Applied Digital. This
amount represents a value for the Companys common stock of $.005 par value per share, representing
a premium of approximately 21% over the average closing price of the Companys and Applied
Digitals stock as of the previous twenty trading days ending on August 7, 2007.
3. Recent and Not Yet Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (SFAS 157), which defines fair
value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with GAAP and expands
disclosures about fair value measurements. This statement is effective for financial statements
issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and interim periods within those fiscal
years. Earlier application is encouraged provided that the reporting entity has not yet issued
financial statements for that fiscal year including financial statements for an interim period
within that fiscal year. The Company is currently assessing SFAS 157 and has not yet determined the
impact that the adoption of SFAS 157 will have on the Companys results of operations or financial
position.
In September 2006, FASB issued SFAS No. 158, Employers Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and
Other Postretirement Plans an amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88, 106, and 132(R), (SFAS
158), which requires employers to: (a) recognize in its statement of financial position an asset
for a plans overfunded status or a liability for a plans underfunded status; (b) measure a plans
assets and its obligations that determine its funded status as of the end of the employers fiscal
year; and (c) recognize changes in the funded status of a defined benefit postretirement plan in
the year in which the changes occur. Those changes will be reported in comprehensive income of a
business entity. The requirement to recognize the funded status of a benefit plan and the
disclosure requirements are effective as of the end of the fiscal year ending after December 15,
2006, for entities with publicly traded equity securities. The initial adoption did not have an
impact on the Companys consolidated financial position, results of operations, cash flows or
financial statement disclosures. The requirement to measure plan assets and benefit obligations as
of the date of the employers fiscal year-end statement of financial position is effective for
fiscal years ending after December 15, 2008. The Company has not yet determined the impact that
this requirement will have on the Companys consolidated financial position, results of operations,
cash flows or financial statement disclosures.
In February 2007, FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and
Financial Liabilities including an amendment of FASB Statement 115, (SFAS 159). This statement
provides companies with an option to report selected financial assets and liabilities at fair
value. This statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 with early
adoption permitted. The Company is currently assessing SFAS 159 and has not yet determined the
impact that the adoption of SFAS 159 will have on the Companys results of operations or financial
position.
In June 2007, FASB issued Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) issued Issue No. 07-3 Accounting for
Nonrefundable Advance Payments for Goods or Services Received for Use in Future Research and
Development Activities (EITF 07-3). EITF 07-3 requires that nonrefundable advance payments for
goods or services that will be used or rendered for future research and development activities be
deferred and capitalized. This issue is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15,
2007 and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently assessing EITF 07-3
and has not yet determined the impact that the adoption of EITF 07-3 will have on the Companys
results of operations or financial position.
4. Acquisition
In April 2007, the Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary Signature, acquired certain assets
and customer contracts of McMurdo, a United Kingdom based subsidiary of Chemring and manufacturer
of emergency location beacons. McMurdo develops and manufactures safety equipment technology. Its
products, including the original Emergency Position Indicating Radio Beacon (EPIRB), the first
Global Maritime Distress and Safety System (GMDSS) and the approved Search and Rescue
Transponder, have become standard lifesaving equipment on many recreational, commercial and
military marine vehicles. This acquisition was made to broaden the Companys emergency location
beacon product offering to serve the military and commercial maritime sectors and provide stability
to the Companys revenue base.

DIGITAL ANGEL CORPORATION
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) (continued)
4. Acquisition (continued)
Pursuant to the Asset Sale and Purchase Agreement (the Agreement) entered into in December 2006,
Signature acquired certain assets and customer contracts of McMurdos marine electronics business including fixed assets, inventory, customer lists, customer
and supplier contracts and relations, trade and business names, and associated assets. The assets
excluded certain accrued liabilities and obligations and real property, including the plant
facility, which Signature has a license to occupy for a period of nine months from the Completion
Date (as defined in the Agreement). Signature is currently in the process of formalizing a sublease
with Chemring to extend the lease of the McMurdo facility until 2022 with an opt-out provision
after two or three years. Under the terms of the Agreement, Signature retained McMurdos employees
related to the marine electronics business. In addition, pursuant to the terms
of the Agreement, the Company guaranteed to McMurdo, Signatures obligations and liabilities to
McMurdo under the Guaranteed Agreements (as defined in the Agreement) and Chemring guaranteed to
Signature, McMurdos obligations and liabilities under the Guaranteed Agreements. The Company paid
consideration of approximately $4.7 million in cash, which included a payment of $0.5 million in
the fourth quarter of 2006 and net of a purchase price adjustment of $0.9 million paid by Chemring
in July 2007, and will make one additional purchase price payment of up to $3.0 million during the
fourth quarter of 2007. The purchase price payment will be determined on a threshold basis with a
minimum threshold, calculated on the basis of the invoiced value of specific products sold between
November 1, 2006 and October 31, 2007 and payable when the parties finalize a statement of the
sales. We expect to pay approximately $2.2 million in additional purchase price consideration as
McMurdos revenue is expected to exceed the threshold.
The estimated fair values of assets acquired are as follows:

The required purchase accounting adjustments, including the allocation of the purchase price
based on the fair values of the assets acquired, have been made based upon preliminary valuations
which are still in review and are subject to change. Based upon the Companys final valuation and
review, it may determine that additional tangible assets exist or that their estimated useful lives
require revision. The Company anticipates that it will finalize the purchase price allocation
within the next several months. Any adjustments to the purchase price allocation will be recorded
as an increase or decrease in goodwill. In addition, the purchase price payment of approximately
$2.2 million that we anticipate paying in the fourth quarter of 2007 is expected to be recorded as
additional goodwill or other intangible assets.
The acquisition was accounted for under the purchase method of accounting and, accordingly, the
condensed consolidated financial statements reflect the results of operations of McMurdo from the
date of acquisition. Unaudited pro forma results of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006 are included below. Such pro forma
information assumes that the above acquisition had occurred as of January 1, 2007 and 2006,
respectively, and revenue is presented in accordance with the Companys accounting policies. These
unaudited pro forma statements have been prepared for comparative purposes only and are not
intended to be indicative of what the Companys results would have been had the acquisition
occurred at the beginning of the periods presented or the results which may occur in the future.

5. Discontinued Operations
In May 2007, the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement with Newcomb to sell 100% of the
issued and outstanding shares of stock of OuterLink. OuterLink, which operated in the Companys GPS
and Radio Communications business segment, provides satellite-based mobile asset tracking and data
messaging systems used to manage the deployment of aircraft and land
vehicles. On July 2, 2007, the Company completed the sale of OuterLink. Consideration, which is
subject to certain adjustments based on OuterLinks closing balance sheet, initially consisted of a
cash payment of $800,000 and a promissory note of $200,000 which matures on December 31, 2007. In
connection with the closing, the Company also executed a one-year non-competition agreement with
OuterLink. Mr. Paul F. Newcomb, President of Newcomb, was the founder and President of the
predecessor company to OuterLink, which the Company acquired in January 2004.
In June 2007, in connection with the Companys planned sale of OuterLink, the Company entered into
an amendment of the Securities Purchase Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement between the
Company and Imperium Master Fund, Ltd. (Imperium) and Gemini Master Fund, Ltd. (Gemini, and
together with Imperium, the Investors) and received a waiver letter from the Investors waiving
certain of their rights under the Subsidiary Guaranty executed by OuterLink in favor of the
Investors and the Security Agreement executed by the Company and OuterLink in favor of the
Investors (collectively, the amendments and the waiver letter, the OuterLink Amendments).
Pursuant to the terms of the OuterLink Amendments, the Investors consented to the sale of
OuterLink, waived all existing defaults, if any, released the outstanding shares of OuterLink owned
by the Company from the pledge and security interest granted to the Investors, and released
OuterLink from its obligations arising under the Subsidiary Guaranty. As consideration, the Company
exchanged the 699,600 existing warrants for 841,000 newly issued seven-year warrants with an
exercise price of $1.701. The warrants are more fully discussed in Note 6.
As a result of the sale of OuterLink, its operations are included as part of the Companys
discontinued operations for all periods presented. The following discloses the operating income
(losses) from discontinued operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007

The results above do not include any allocated or common overhead expenses. Included in the
results for the three months ended September 30, 2007 is a $1.7 million gain on the sale of
OuterLink. Given the Companys current tax status, the gain did not result in a provision for
income taxes due to Federal and State net operating losses and carryforwards.

6. Financing Arrangements
On February 6, 2007, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement pursuant to which the
Company sold a 10.25% senior secured debenture (debenture) in the original principal amount of
$6.0 million and issued five-year warrants to purchase 699,600 shares of the Companys common stock
at a per share exercise price of $2.973. Concurrently with the Securities Purchase Agreement, the
Company executed a Registration Rights Agreement (the Registration Agreement), pursuant to which
the Company is obligated to register for resale shares of the Companys common stock sufficient to
cover the shares necessary to pay the principal and interest payments due on the debenture and the
shares underlying the warrants. If the Company does not comply with the registration deadlines set
forth in the Registration Agreement, the Company will be obligated to pay each Investor, pro rata,
a default payment equal to 1% of the aggregate purchase price of the debenture for each month the
registration default is not cured, capped at 9%, and the exercise price is subject to certain reset
provisions. The Registration Agreement has been amended to extend the registration effective
deadline to either: (1) a date no later than 60 days following the earlier of the closing of the
Merger or December 31, 2007, or (2) a date no later than 120 days following the earlier of the
closing of the Merger or December 31, 2007 if the Registration Statement is subject to a full
review by the SEC.
On June 28, 2007, the Company entered into an amendment of the Securities Purchase Agreement in
connection with the planned sale of OuterLink and as consideration, the Company exchanged the
699,600 existing warrants for 841,000 newly issued seven-year warrants with an exercise price of
$1.701.
The warrants contain certain anti-dilution provisions and, accordingly, the Company has accounted
for the fair value of the warrants as a derivative liability subject to SFAS No. 133, Accounting
for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. At issuance, the fair value of the 699,600
warrants, as calculated using the Black-Scholes valuation model, was
$1,254,000 using the following
assumptions; volatility of 83.13%, risk free interest rate of 4.6%, dividend rate of 0.0% and
expected life of 5 years. The fair value of the warrants was recorded as a discount to the
debenture and amortized to interest expense over the life of the debenture, which was repaid on
August 31, 2007 as more fully discussed below. Upon issuance of the 841,000 warrants, the Company
recognized $127,000 of additional interest expense using the following Black-Scholes valuation
assumptions; volatility 73.93%, risk free interest rate of 4.6%, dividend rate of 0.0% and expected
life of 7.0 years. The warrants fair value is required to be revalued at each balance sheet date
using the Black-Scholes valuation model with changes in value recorded in the condensed
consolidated statement of operations as income or expense. At September 30, 2007, the warrants
derivative fair value for the 841,000 warrants outstanding was $717,000
11
DIGITAL ANGEL CORPORATION
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) (continued)
6. Financing Arrangements (continued)
using the following assumptions; volatility of 73.27%, risk free interest rate of 4.4%, dividend
rate of 0.0% and expected life of 6.75 years. Approximately $241,000 and $537,000 of income, net of
the expense related to the exchange of the warrants, is included in the condensed consolidated
statement of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007, respectively, as a
result of the changes in the fair value and replacement of the warrants.
On August 24, 2007, the Company and Imperium agreed to an extension of the repayment date of the
debenture by up to one month, or until September 27, 2007. The debenture was repaid on August 31,
2007.
Effective August 31, 2007, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries, Digital Angel Technology
Corporation, Fearing Manufacturing Co., Inc. and Digital Angel International (collectively
Eligible Subsidiaries) entered into a $6.0 million revolving asset-based financing transaction
with Kallina Corporation (Kallina or the Lender), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Laurus Master
Fund, Ltd., pursuant to the terms of a Security Agreement. Under the terms of the Security
Agreement, the Company may borrow, from time to time, an amount equal to the lesser of the amount
of availability under the borrowing base and $6.0 million, subject to certain reserves that the
Lender is authorized to take in its reasonable commercial judgment (the Revolving Facility). The
borrowing base is calculated as a percentage of the total amount of eligible accounts and inventory
owned by the Company and its Eligible Subsidiaries. The Company had $0.7 million of available funds
under the Revolving Facility at September 30, 2007. Amounts outstanding under the Revolving
Facility accrue interest at a rate per annum equal to the prime rate plus 2.0%, but not less than 10.0% at
any time. The Revolving Facility matures on August 31, 2010. At September 30, 2007, the interest
rate for amounts borrowed on the Revolving Facility was 10.0%. The Company and its Eligible
Subsidiaries have pledged all of their respective assets, excluding the stock of all foreign
subsidiaries other than stock held by the Company in Signature, in support of the obligations under
the Revolving Facility. The Company used a portion of the proceeds from the Revolving Facility to
terminate and pay-off all obligations under the Greater Bay facility. See Note 7 for further
discussion.
In connection with the Revolving Facility, the Company issued warrants to purchase 967,742 shares
of the Companys common stock at a per share exercise price of
$1.69. The warrants can be exercised at any time prior to
August 31, 2014. The warrants are valued at
approximately $1.0 million using the following assumptions; volatility of 73.08%, risk free
interest rate of 4.4%, dividend rate of 0.0% and expected life of seven years. The amount was
recorded as a discount to the Revolving Facility and is being amortized to interest expense over
the life of the Revolving Facility. The Company also entered into a Registration Rights Agreement
with the Lender pursuant to which the Company has agreed to file a registration statement no later
than December 31, 2007 covering the resale by the Lender of those shares received upon exercise of
the warrants.
Effective August 31, 2007, the Company entered into a $7.0 million secured term note (intercompany term
loan) with Applied Digital. The intercompany term loan accrues
interest at a rate per annum equal to the
prime rate plus 3.0%, but no less than 11.0%, and matures on August 31, 2009. At September 30,
2007, the interest rate was 11.0%. The Company is obligated to make monthly interest payments
beginning October 2007 and monthly principal payments of approximately $167,000 beginning March
2008 as well as a final payment of $4.0 million at maturity. As consideration for the intercompany
term loan, the Company issued to Applied Digital 921,402 shares of the Companys common stock. The
Company determined the value of the stock to be approximately $1.4 million, based on the closing
price of the Companys stock on the issuance date, which was recorded as a debt discount. The debt
discount is being amortized to interest expense over the life of the intercompany term loan. In
addition, the Company incurred a total of approximately $0.6 million of financing fees in
connection with the Revolving Facility and intercompany term loan. These fees were recorded as debt
issuance costs and are being amortized to interest expense over the lives of the Revolving Facility
and intercompany term loan. The Company used the proceeds to repay all amounts due under the
debenture.
Based on the Companys election to prepay the debenture, the Company wrote off approximately $1.5
million of deferred financing costs and debt discount associated with the debenture and the Greater
Bay facility in the third quarter of 2007.
Concurrently with the closing of the Revolving Facility, Applied Digital entered into a $7.0
million non-convertible debt financing transaction with the Lender pursuant to the terms of a
Securities Purchase Agreement between Applied Digital and the Lender (the Applied Digital
Financing Transaction). The Company and its Eligible Subsidiaries have guaranteed the obligations
of Applied Digital under the Applied Digital Financing Transaction and Applied Digital has
guaranteed the obligations of the Company and its Eligible Subsidiaries under the Revolving
Facility.

On March 23, 2007, the Company entered into a revolving invoice funding facility (Greater Bay
facility) with Greater Bay Business Funding (Greater Bay), a division of Greater Bay Bank N.A.
The Greater Bay facility provided that the Company sell and assign to Greater Bay, all rights,
title, and interest in the accounts receivable of Digital Angel Technology Corporation. Under the
Greater Bay facility, Greater Bay advanced 80% of the eligible receivables, as defined, not to
exceed a maximum of $5,000,000 at any given time. Greater Bay paid the remainder of the receivable
upon collection and interest was payable on the daily outstanding balance of funds
drawn and was equal to the Greater Bay Bank N.A. prime rate plus 3.00%. On August 31, 2007, the
Company used a portion of the proceeds from the Revolving Facility to
terminate and repurchase the factored receivables under the Greater Bay facility.
Signature has entered into an Invoice Discounting Agreement, (as amended, the RBS Invoice
Discounting Agreement) with The Royal Bank of Scotland Commercial Services Limited (RBS). The
RBS Invoice Discounting Agreement provides for Signature to sell with full title guarantee most of
its receivables, as defined in the RBS Invoice Discounting Agreement. Under the RBS Invoice
Discounting Agreement, RBS prepays 80% of the receivables sold in the United Kingdom and 80% of the
receivables sold in the rest of the world, not to exceed an outstanding balance of £2.0 million
(approximately $4.1 million at September 30, 2007) at any given time. RBS pays Signature the
remainder of the receivable upon collection of the receivable. Receivables which remain outstanding
90 days from the end of the invoice month become ineligible and RBS may require Signature to
repurchase the receivable. The discounting charge accrues at an annual rate of 1.5% above the base
rate as defined in the RBS Invoice Discounting Agreement (5.3% at September 30, 2007). Signature
pays a commission charge to RBS of 0.16% of each receivable balance sold. The RBS Invoice
Discounting Agreement requires a minimum commission charge of £833 (approximately $1,700) per
month. Discounting charges of $28,000 and $78,000 are included in interest expense for the three
and nine months ended September 30, 2007, respectively. As of September 30, 2007, $1.8 million of
receivables were financed under the RBS Invoice Discounting Agreement.

10. Stock Options and Restricted Stock
Stock Option Plans
As of September 30, 2007, the Company maintained the Amended and Restated Digital Angel Corporation
Transition Stock Option Plan (DAC Stock Option Plan), which is described below, and has
outstanding stock options which were issued pursuant to another plan that was terminated on
February 23, 2006. On January 1, 2006, the Company adopted SFAS 123R, Share-Based Payment (SFAS
123R), using the modified prospective transition method. Accordingly, during the nine month period
ended September 30, 2006, the Company recorded stock-based compensation expense for awards granted
in 2006 and awards granted prior to, but not yet vested as of January 1, 2006, as if the fair value
method required for pro forma disclosure under SFAS 123 were in effect for expense recognition
purposes. Upon adoption of SFAS 123R, the Company elected to continue using the Black-Scholes
valuation model and has recognized compensation expense using a straight-line amortization method.
During the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2007, the Company recorded $658,000 and
$1.2 million, respectively, in stock-based employee compensation expense (including compensation
for options granted to non-employees and for restricted stock grants). During the three and nine
month periods ending September 30, 2006, the Company recorded $279,000 and $566,000, respectively,
of stock-based compensation expense.
On January 13, 2004, the Company granted its former Chief Executive Officer a ten-year option to
purchase 1,000,000 shares of the Companys common stock at $3.92 per share. This option was granted
outside the Companys stock plans and approved by the Companys stockholders on May 6, 2004. The
option became exercisable on December 30, 2005 and remains outstanding as of September 30, 2007.
The option will be forfeited in December 2007 unless exercised.
On February 18, 2004, the Company granted its Chairman of the board of directors a ten-year option
to purchase 500,000 shares of the Companys common stock at $3.43 per share. This option was
granted outside the Companys stock plans and approved by the Companys stockholders on May 6,
2004. The option became exercisable on February 18, 2005. As of September 30, 2007, the option
remains outstanding.
Prior to the adoption of SFAS 123R, the Company presented all tax benefits related to stock-based
compensation as an operating cash inflow. SFAS 123R requires the cash flows resulting from tax
deductions in excess of compensation cost recognized for those options (excess tax benefits) to be
classified as financing cash flows. The Company did not record any excess income tax benefits
relating to SFAS 123R during the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006.
As of September 30, 2007, the DAC Stock Option Plan, which is stockholder-approved, has 18,195,312
shares of common stock reserved for issuance, of which 16,845,142 shares have been issued and
1,350,170 remain available for issuance. As of September 30, 2007, awards consisting of options to
purchase 8,638,197 shares were outstanding under the DAC Stock Option Plan and awards consisting of
options to purchase 472,820 shares were outstanding under the Companys terminated stock option
plan. Additionally, restricted stock awards for 545,669 shares of common stock have been granted
under the DAC Stock Option Plan. Option awards are generally granted with exercise prices between
market price and 110% of the market price of the Companys stock at the date of grant; option
awards generally vest over 3 to 9 years and have 10-year contractual terms. Certain option and
share awards provide for accelerated vesting if there is a change in control (as defined in the DAC
Stock Option Plan).
Stock Option Activity
The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes
valuation model. The following assumptions were used for options granted during the nine month
period ended September 30:

10. Stock Options and Restricted Stock (continued)
The Companys computation of expected volatility is determined based on historical volatility.
The computation of expected life is determined based on historical experience of similar awards,
giving consideration to the contractual terms of the stock-based awards, vesting schedules and expectations of future employee behavior. The risk-free interest rate is
based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant.

As of September 30, 2007, there was $3.6 million of total unrecognized compensation cost
related to nonvested share-based compensation arrangements granted under the DAC Stock Option Plan.
That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 5.9 years. As defined in
the DAC Stock Option Plan, a change in control (which would occur upon the consummation of the
Merger between the Company and Applied Digital, see Note 2), would trigger the accelerated vesting of the 2,041,665 unvested
stock options and all unrecognized compensation cost
would be immediately recognized.
Cash received from option exercises under all share-based payment arrangements for the nine month
periods ended September 30, 2007 and 2006, was nil and $563,000, respectively.
Restricted Stock
In August 2007, the Company granted its former CEO 307,143 shares of the Companys restricted
stock. The restricted stock vests 100% on September 7, 2008. The Company determined the value of
the stock to be $430,000 based on the closing price of the Companys stock on August 8, 2007 and
was recorded as compensation expense in the Companys results of operations for the nine months
ended September 30, 2007.

10. Stock Options and Restricted Stock (continued)
In August 2007, the Company granted its Chairman of the board of directors 25,000 shares of the
Companys restricted stock. The restricted stock vested 100% on October 15, 2007. The Company
determined the value of the stock to be $39,000 based on the closing price of the Companys stock
on the date of the grant. The value of the restricted stock was recorded as compensation expense.
In the nine months ended September 30, 2007, $29,000 was recognized as compensation expense in the
Companys results of operations related to the restricted stock.
In March 2005, the Company granted its Chairman of the board of directors 100,000 shares of the
Companys restricted stock. The restricted stock vested 50% on March 7, 2006 and 50% on March 7,
2007. The Company determined the value of the stock to be $506,000 based on the closing price of
the Companys stock on the date of grant. The value of the restricted stock was recorded as
deferred compensation and was amortized to compensation expense over the two-year vesting period.
In the nine month periods ended September 30, 2007 and 2006, $42,000 and $190,000, respectively,
was recognized as compensation expense in the Companys results of operations related to the
restricted stock.
In February 2005, the Company granted an employee 54,230 shares of the Companys restricted stock.
The restricted stock vested 30% on February 25, 2006, 30% on February 25, 2007 and will vest 40% on
February 25, 2008. The Company determined the value of the stock to be $250,000 based on the
closing price of the Companys stock on the date of grant. The value of the restricted stock has
been recorded as deferred compensation and is being amortized to compensation expense over the
vesting period. In the nine month periods ended September 30, 2007 and 2006, $69,000 and $56,000,
respectively, was recognized as compensation expense in the Companys results of operations related
to the restricted stock.
11. Segment Information
The Company develops and deploys sensor and communication technologies that enable rapid and
accurate identification, location tracking and condition monitoring of high-value assets. The
Companys two operating segments are Animal Applications and GPS and Radio Communications.
Previously, the Company combined its Corporate functions with its Animal Applications segment.
Beginning April 1, 2007, Corporate has been reclassified and presented separately. Prior period
results have also been reclassified for consistency.
Animal ApplicationsDevelops, manufactures, and markets visual and electronic identification tags
and radio frequency identification microchips, primarily for identification, tracking and location
of companion pets, horses, livestock, fish and wildlife worldwide, and more recently, for animal
bio-sensing applications, such as temperature reading for companion pet, horse and livestock
applications. The Animal Applications segment consists of operations located in Minnesota, DSD
Holding A/S and its wholly and majority-owned subsidiaries located in Denmark and Poland, and
Digital Angel International, Inc. and its subsidiaries located in Argentina, Brazil, Chile,
Paraguay and Uruguay.
The Animal Applications segments radio frequency identification products consist of miniature
electronic microchips, scanners, and for some applications, injection systems. The Company holds
patents on its syringe-injectable microchip, which is encased in a glass or glass-like material
capsule and incorporates an antenna and a microchip with a unique permanent identification code.
The microchip is typically injected under the skin using a hypodermic syringe, without requiring
surgery. An associated scanner device uses radio frequency to interrogate the microchip and read
the code.
The Animal Applications segments companion pet identification system involves the insertion of a
microchip with identifying information into the animal. Scanners at animal shelters, veterinary
clinics and other locations can read the microchips unique identification number. Through the use
of a database, the unique identification number identifies the animal, the animals owner and other
information. This pet identification system is marketed in the United States by Schering-Plough
Animal Health Corporation under the brand name Home Again, pursuant to a multi-year exclusive
license, in Europe by Merial Pharmaceutical, and in Japan by Dainippon Pharmaceutical. The Company
has distribution agreements with a variety of other companies outside the United States to market
its products.
The Animal Applications segments miniature electronic microchips are also used for the tagging of
fish, especially salmon, for identification in migratory studies and other purposes. The electronic
microchips are accepted as a safe, reliable alternative to traditional identification methods
because the fish, once implanted, can be identified without being captured or sacrificed.
16
DIGITAL ANGEL CORPORATION
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) (continued)
11. Segment Information (continued)
In addition to pursuing the market for permanent identification of companion animals and tracking
microchips for fish, the Animal Applications segment also produces visual and electronic
identification products for livestock producers. Visual identification products for livestock are
typically numbered ear tags, which the Company has marketed since the 1940s. Currently, sales of
visual products represent a substantial percentage of the Companys sales to livestock producers.
The Companys implantable radio frequency microchip was cleared by the U.S. Food and Drug
Administration for medical applications in humans in the United States in October 2004. The Company
has a long-term exclusive Distribution and Licensing Agreement with VeriChip Corporation
(VeriChip), an affiliated, majority-owned subsidiary of Applied Digital, covering the
manufacturing, purchasing and distribution of the human implantable microchip, which is more fully
described in Note 13.
GPS and Radio CommunicationsDesigns, manufactures and markets global positioning systems (GPS)
enabled equipment used for location tracking and message monitoring of vehicles, aircraft and
people in remote locations. This segments principal products are GPS-enabled search and rescue
equipment and intelligent communications products and services for telemetry, mobile data and radio
communications applications, including Digital Angels SARBE brand, which serve commercial and
military markets, as well as alarm sounders for industrial use and other electronic components. The
GPS and Radio Communications segment consists of the operations of the Companys subsidiary,
Signature (90.9% owned), and includes the operations of the McMurdo business acquired in
April 2007, both of which are located in the United Kingdom.
The GPS and Radio Communications segments personal locator beacons (PLBs), which are sold under
the SARBE brand name, are used by military air crew in the event of an ejection or other event
requiring emergency evacuation of an aircraft in a remote, possibly hostile location. Even if
aircrew are unconscious or injured, the SARBE transmission will be initiated immediately as no
human intervention is required, reducing the time it takes to initiate a search.
The Company is also a distributor of two-way communications equipment in the United Kingdom. Its
products range from conventional radio systems for the majority of radio users, construction and
manufacturing industries, intrinsically safe radio equipment for use in hazardous environments,
trunked radio systems for large scale users and marine radios, ariband radios and inmarsat
communication equipment for use on a global basis.
The GPS and Radio Communications segment also manufactures electronic alarm sounders under the
Clifford & Snell name. These products are used to provide audible and/or visual signals, which
alert personnel in hazardous areas, including the oil and petrochemical industry and in the fire
and security market.
The Corporate category includes general and administrative expenses, interest expense and income
and other expenses associated with corporate activities and functions. Included in Corporate for
the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007 is approximately $0.6 million and $0.8 million,
respectively, for costs associated with the Merger between the Company and Applied Digital.
It is on this basis that the Companys management utilizes the financial information to assist in
making internal operating decisions. The Company evaluates performance based on stand-alone segment
operating performance as presented below.

13. Income Taxes
Effective January 1, 2007, the Company adopted FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for
Uncertainties in Income Taxes an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109 (FIN 48). FIN 48
clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in accordance with FASB
Statement No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. FIN 48 prescribes a recognition threshold and
measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position
taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. FIN 48 also provides guidance on derecognition,
classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition.
The impact of adoption was immaterial to the Companys condensed consolidated results of operations
and financial position and therefore, no FIN 48 liability was recorded. In addition, the Company
did not record any liability for income tax-related interest and penalties. Any future expense for
income tax-related interest and penalties will be classified as a component of income taxes.
The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and various state and foreign
jurisdictions in which the Company operates. In general, the Company is no longer subject to U.S.
federal, state or local income tax examinations for years ended before December 31, 2002. DSD
Holding is no longer subject to non-U.S. income tax examinations for years ended before December
31, 2002 and Signature is no longer subject to non-U.S. income tax examinations for years ended
before December 31, 2004. We do not currently have any examinations ongoing.
14. Related Party Activity
On August 31, 2007, the Company entered into a $7.0 million intercompany loan with Applied Digital
and issued to Applied Digital 921,402 shares of the Companys common stock as consideration. See Note
6 for further discussion.
The Company has a Distribution and Licensing Agreement dated March 4, 2002, amended December 28,
2005 and May 9, 2007, with VeriChip, a majority owned subsidiary of Applied Digital at September
30, 2007, covering the manufacturing, purchasing and distribution of the Companys implantable
microchip and the maintenance of the VeriChip Registry by us (the Distribution and Licensing
Agreement). The Distribution and Licensing Agreement contains, among other things, minimum
purchase requirements in order to maintain exclusivity, whereby VeriChip is required to purchase
$0, $875,000, $1,750,000 and $2,500,000 for each of 2007, 2008, 2009 and 2010, respectively, and
$3,750,000 for 2011 and each year thereafter. As of September 30, 2007, VeriChip has purchased
approximately $0.4 million of the minimum purchase requirement for 2008. The Distribution and
Licensing Agreement continues until March 2014 and, as long as VeriChip continues to meet the
minimum purchase requirements, will automatically renew annually under its terms. The Distribution
and Licensing agreement includes a license for the use of the Companys technology in VeriChips
identified markets. Under the Distribution and Licensing Agreement, the Company is the sole
manufacturer and supplier to VeriChip. The existing terms with the Companys sole supplier of
implantable microchips, Raytheon Microelectronics España, SA, expire on June 30, 2010.
Revenue recognized under the Distribution and Licensing Agreement was nil and $21,000 for the three
months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively, and $39,000 and $194,000 for the nine
months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. Amounts due from VeriChip as of September
30, 2007 and December 31, 2006 were nil and $425,000, respectively.
Laurus Capital Management, LLC or its affiliates beneficially owned approximately 10% of the
Companys common stock at August 31, 2007. The Company has entered into financing arrangements with
Kallina, an affiliate of Laurus, in the ordinary course of business.
The Companys subsidiary, DSD Holding A/S (DSD), leases a 13,600 square foot building located in
Hvidovre, Denmark. The building is occupied by DSDs administrative and production operations. The
lease agreement has no expiration, but includes a three-month termination notice requirement that
can be utilized by the owner or DSD. DSD leases the building from LANO Holding ApS, which is
100%-owned by Lasse Nordfjeld, president of the Companys Animal Applications Group. For nine months ended September 30, 2007, DSD paid to LANO Holding ApS the aggregate amount of DKK
544,000 (approximately $98,000 at September 30, 2007) for lease
payments.

15. Legal Proceedings
Digital Angel Corporation v. Datamars, Inc., Datamars, S.A., The Crystal Import Corporation and
Medical Management International, Inc.
On October 20, 2004, the Company commenced an action in the United States District Court for the
District of Minnesota against Datamars, Inc., Datamars, S.A., The Crystal Import Corporation,
(Crystal), and Medical Management International, Inc. The suit claimed that the defendants were
marketing and selling syringe implantable identification transponders manufactured by Datamars that
infringed the Companys 1993 patent for syringe implantable identification transponders previously
found by the United States District Court for the District of Colorado to be enforceable. The suit
sought, among other things, an adjudication of infringement, injunctive relief, and actual and
punitive damages. On February 28, 2006, the Court conducted a hearing (the Markman Hearing) in
which each of the parties presented the Court with their views regarding the scope of the claims
set forth in the subject patent. On May 22, 2006, the Court issued its order on the Markman
Hearing, largely adopting the Companys views on the scope of the claims in the subject patent.
The Crystal Import Corporation v. Digital Angel, et al.
On or about December 29, 2004, Crystal filed an action against AVID Identification Systems, Inc.
and the Company in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Alabama. Crystals
complaint primarily asserted federal and state antitrust and related claims against AVID, though it
also asserted similar claims against the Company. On October 12, 2005, the Alabama Court
transferred the action to Minnesota. Following the docketing of the action in Minnesota, the
Company and AVID filed a motion seeking to stay the case until the corresponding patent
infringement actions have been resolved.
Datamars and Crystal Import Settlements
On August 27, 2007, pursuant to the Courts settlement conference procedures, the parties in
the above-described legal proceedings finalized a global settlement. Under the terms of the
settlement agreement, Datamars made a lump-sum payment to the Company, the parties granted mutual
releases, the Company dismissed the infringement claims against Datamars, and the Company was
dismissed from the antitrust litigation. The Company also granted a non-exclusive license to
Datamars for syringe-implantable identification transponders that could reasonably be alleged to be
covered by the patent at issue in the infringement litigation. The financial terms of the
settlement have not been disclosed.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should
be read in conjunction with the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and
related notes thereto.
We consist of Digital Angel Corporation and our subsidiaries Digital Angel Technology
Corporation (DATC), Fearing Manufacturing Co., Inc., Timely Technology Corp., Signature
Industries Limited, (Signature) (90.9% owned subsidiary), DSD Holding A/S and its subsidiaries
Daploma International A/S (DSD Holding), Daploma Polska (70% owned subsidiary), and Digitag A/S,
Digital Angel Holdings, LLC and Digital Angel International, Inc. and its subsidiaries Digital
Angel S.A. (99.58% owned subsidiary), Digital Angel do Brasil Produtos de Informatica LTDA, Digital
Angel Chile S.A., Digital Angel Paraguay S.A. and Digital Angel Uruguay S.A.
Overview
We develop and deploy sensor and communication technologies that enable rapid and accurate
identification, location tracking and condition monitoring of high value assets. We operate in two
business segments: Animal Applications and GPS and Radio Communications. Previously, we combined
our Corporate functions with our Animal Applications segment. Beginning April 1, 2007, Corporate
has been reclassified and presented separately. Prior period results have also been reclassified
for consistency.
Animal Applications Develops, manufactures and markets visual and electronic identification tags
and radio frequency identification (RFID) microchips, primarily for identification, tracking and
location of companion pets, horses, livestock, fish and wildlife worldwide, and more recently, for
animal bio-sensing applications, such as temperature reading for companion pet, horse and livestock
applications. The Animal Applications segment consists of our operations located in Minnesota, DSD
Holding A/S and its wholly- and majority-owned subsidiaries located in Denmark and Poland, and
Digital Angel International, Inc. and its subsidiaries located in Argentina, Brazil, Chile,
Paraguay and Uruguay. The positive identification and tracking of livestock and fish are crucial
for asset management and for disease control and food safety. In addition to the visual ear tags
which have been sold by us since the late 1940s, the Animal Applications segment utilizes RFID
technologies in its electronic ear tags and implantable microchips.
GPS and Radio Communications Designs, manufactures and markets global positioning systems
(GPS) enabled equipment used for location tracking and message monitoring of marine vehicles,
aircraft and people in remote locations. This segments principal products are GPS-enabled search
and rescue equipment and intelligent communications products and services for telemetry, mobile
data and radio communications applications, including Digital Angels SARBE brand, which serve
commercial and military markets, as well as alarm sounders for industrial use and other electronic
components. The GPS and Radio Communications segment consists of the operations of our subsidiary,
Signature, and includes the operations of the McMurdo business acquired in April 2007, both of
which are located in the United Kingdom.
Our business segments are more fully discussed in Note 10 to our accompanying condensed
consolidated financial statements.
Significant Factors Affecting our Results of Operations and Financial Condition
On April 5, 2007, our subsidiary, Signature acquired certain assets of McMurdos marine electronics
business, including fixed assets, inventory, customer lists, customer and supplier contracts and
relations, trade and business names and associated assets.
On July 2, 2007, we completed the sale of our wholly-owned subsidiary, OuterLink to Newcomb.
OuterLink provides satellite-based mobile asset tracking and data messaging systems used to manage
the deployment of aircraft and land vehicles. Pursuant to the agreement, we sold all of the issued
and outstanding shares of stock of OuterLink. As a result of the sale of OuterLink, its operations
are included as part of our discontinued operations for all periods presented.
On August 8, 2007, we entered
into a Merger Agreement with Applied Digital Solutions, Inc. The
Merger Agreement has been approved by the boards of both companies, but consummation of the
transactions remains subject to customary conditions.
On August 31, 2007, we closed a $6.0 million revolving asset-based financing transaction with
Kallina Corporation and entered into a $7.0 million intercompany secured term note with Applied
Digital.
21
Each of these factors is more fully discussed in the notes to the accompanying condensed
consolidated financial statements.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
For information regarding recent and not yet adopted accounting pronouncements and their expected
impact on our future consolidated results of operations or financial condition, see Note 3 to our
condensed consolidated financial statements.
Revenue Recognition for the McMurdo Business
Consistent with our existing policy, we recognize revenue for the McMurdo operations at the time
product is shipped and title has transferred, provided that a purchase order has been received or a
contract has been executed, there are no uncertainties regarding customer acceptance, the sales
price is fixed and determinable and collectability is deemed probable. If uncertainties regarding
customer acceptance exist, revenue is recognized when such uncertainties are resolved. There are no
significant post-contract support obligations at the time of revenue recognition. Our accounting
policy regarding vendor and post-contract support is that revenue is recognized upon
occurrence of the post-contract support. Costs of products sold and services provided are recorded
as the related revenue is recognized. We offer a warranty on our products. For non-fixed and fixed
fee jobs, service revenue is recognized based on the actual direct labor hours in the job
multiplied by the standard billing rate and adjusted to net realizable value, if necessary. Other
revenue is recognized at the time service or goods are provided. It is our policy to record
contract losses in their entirety in the period in which such losses are foreseeable.
Our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006 contains further information
regarding other critical accounting policies.

Revenues
Our Animal Applications segments revenue increased approximately $2.1 million for the three months
ended September 30, 2007 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2006. The increase was
principally due to an increase in microchip sales of approximately $2.6 million to Schering-Plough,
our exclusive distributor in the U.S. of our companion pet implantable microchips. This increase
was partially offset by a decrease of electronic identification and visual product sales to
livestock customers of $0.4 million as a result of increased competition.
Gross Profit and Gross Profit Margin
Our Animal Applications segments gross profit increased approximately $0.1 million in the three
months ended September 30, 2007 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2006. The gross
profit margin decreased to 31.1% in the three months ended September 30, 2007 as compared to 37.6%
in the three months ended September 30, 2006. We attribute the increase in gross profit to
increased sales in the current period as well as a decrease in gross profit margin primarily due to
a decrease in the average selling price for companion pet product sold in the U.S., higher freight
costs for air shipments and increased depreciation expense on new machinery.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Our Animal Applications segments selling, general and administrative expenses increased $0.3
million in the three months ended September 30, 2007 compared to the three months ended September
30, 2006. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses is primarily the result of
higher compensation expense for additional personnel, an increase in marketing related expense for
livestock products as well as one-time relocation expenses. Selling, general and administrative
expenses as a percentage of revenue decreased from 32.5% to 28.7% primarily due to the increase in
sales.
Research and Development Expenses
Our Animal Applications segments research and development remained relatively constant in the
three months ended September 30, 2007 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2006.
Research and development expenses relate to new product development associated with RFID microchips
and related scanners.

Revenues
Our GPS and Radio Communications segments revenue increased approximately $5.8 million in the
three months ended September 30, 2007 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2006. The
increase in revenue was principally due to an increase in sales of SARBE products of $0.8 million,
an increase in sales of alarm products of $0.2 million and the inclusion of $4.4 million of sales
from our McMurdo division which was acquired on April 5, 2007. We believe that McMurdo will provide
us with more predictable revenue in our search and rescue beacon business going forward.
Gross Profit and Gross Profit Margin
Our GPS and Radio Communications segments gross profit increased approximately $2.9 million in the
three months ended September 30, 2007 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2006. Of
this increase, $1.9 million is attributable to McMurdo, which was acquired in April 2007, with the
remaining increase due to increased SARBE and alarm product sales. Third quarter gross profit
margin was 50.3% in the three month period ended September 30, 2007 as compared to 51.8% in the
three months ended September 30, 2006. The decrease in gross profit margin relates primarily to the
addition of the McMurdo operations as currently, we earn lower margins at our McMurdo division than
we do at our existing business lines. Excluding McMurdo, Signatures gross profit margin increased
due to the increase in sales and favorable product mix.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Our GPS and Radio Communications segments selling, general and administrative expenses increased
approximately $1.5 million in the three months ended September 30, 2007 compared to the three
months ended September 30, 2006. This increase in selling, general and administrative expenses
relates primarily to the addition of McMurdo which had expenses of $0.8 million in the third
quarter. The remaining $0.7 million is due to an increase in compensation expense due to additional
bonus accruals and commission expense relating to the increased sales. As a percentage of revenue,
selling, general and administrative expenses decreased to 38.0% in the three months ended September
30, 2007 from 54.7% in the three months ended September 30, 2006. The decrease in selling, general
and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue resulted primarily from the increase in
revenue and lower selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue at
McMurdo.
Research and Development Expenses
Our GPS and Radio Communications segments research and development expenses remained relatively
constant in the three months ended September 30, 2007 as compared to the three months ended
September 30, 2006. The expense includes an increase of $0.2 million of additional McMurdo research
and development expense and decreased expenses of $0.2 million at Signature. This decrease is due
to the substantial completion of the development of a new search and rescue beacon for the U.S.
Airforce. The development of the new pilot location beacon was our first contract with a branch of
the U.S. Military as previous sales of our location beacons have
been to foreign governments. Revenue from the contract, totaling approximately $0.9 million, is
expected to be earned in the three months ended December 31, 2007.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Our Corporate segments selling, general and administrative expenses increased $1.1 million for the
three month period ended September 30, 2007 compared to the three month period ended September 30,
2006. The increase is primarily due to $0.8 million of severance expense for our former CEO, $0.1
million for an executive search for a new CEO and increased compensation expense.
Merger Expenses
Our Corporate segments Merger expenses of $0.6 million for the three months ended September 30,
2007 consist of primarily legal, investment banker and board of directors fees incurred in
connection with the Merger Agreement between us and Applied Digital.
Consolidated
Interest Expense
Interest expense was $2.3 million and $0.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2007
and 2006, respectively. The increase in interest expense relates primarily to interest payments on
higher debt balances, debt discount and deferred debt cost amortization, and the write off of $1.5
million of deferred financing and debt discount costs associated with the early payoff of our
debenture and Greater Bay facility.
Derivative Warrant Liability
Income recognized from the change in the fair value of the derivative warrant liability was $0.2
million for the three months ended September 30, 2007. The income is attributed to the change in
the fair value of the warrant liability associated with the warrants issued in connection with the
debenture and subsequent amendment. As the warrants contain certain anti-dilution and cash
settlement provisions, we have accounted for the fair value of the warrants as a liability. At each
balance sheet date, the warrants fair value is revalued using the Black-Scholes valuation model
with changes in value recorded in the statement of operations as income or expense.
Other
Income
The increase in other income relates primarily to the settlement of a legal
matter during the three-months ended September 30, 2007 that we
initiated to protect certain of our intellectual property.
Income Taxes
We had
income tax expense of approximately $359,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2007 compared to
$4,000 in the same period of 2006 related to our foreign operations. We account
for income taxes under the asset and liability approach. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are
recognized for the expected future tax consequences attributed to differences between the financial
statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using
the enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary
differences are expected to reverse. A valuation allowance is provided against net deferred tax
assets when it is more likely than not that a tax benefit will not be realized. Due to our current
tax position, we have recorded a valuation allowance to fully reserve our U.S. net deferred tax
asset.
25
Net Loss from Continuing Operations
Our net
loss from continuing operations increased $2.1 million to $3.3 million for the three months
ended September 30, 2007 compared to a loss of $1.2 million for the three months ended September
30, 2006. These results were primarily driven by increase in corporate expenses as well as interest
expense in the third quarter and income tax provision from foreign
operations, slightly offset by the income generated at Signature and the income
recognized from the change in the derivative warrant liability.

# Variance not meaningful
Revenues
Our Animal Applications segments revenue increased approximately $3.5 million in the nine months
ended September 30, 2007 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2006. The increase was
principally due to the aforementioned increase in microchip sales of approximately $5.6 million to
Schering-Plough, our exclusive distributor in the U.S. of our companion pet, implantable
microchips. Partially offsetting the increase was a decrease of electronic identification and
visual product sales to livestock customers of $1.3 million. The decrease in e-tag sales in the
U.S. is primarily due to the U.S. Department of Agricultures decision to continue the national
identification system as voluntary. We also experienced a decrease in sales to fish and wildlife
customers of $0.5 million, due to decreased service revenue, and a decrease in sales to VeriChip of
$0.2 million.
Gross Profit and Gross Profit Margin
Our Animal Applications segments gross profit decreased approximately $0.6 million in the nine
months ended September 30, 2007 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2006. The gross
margin was 31.6% in the nine months ended September 30, 2007 compared to 37.5% in the nine months
ended September 30, 2006. We attribute the decrease in the gross profit and gross profit margin in
the nine months ended September 30, 2007 to a decrease in high margin engineering service revenue,
a decrease in the average selling price for companion pet products in the U.S., higher material and
freight costs associated with fulfilling demand for companion pet products in the U.S., warranty
costs for e-tags shipped to Canada and increased overhead costs related to the startup of molding
operations in our St. Paul facility, which we have begun to offset by a decrease in the visual
product material cost.
26
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Our Animal Applications segments selling, general and administrative expenses increased
approximately $1.9 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2007 compared to the nine months
ended September 30, 2006. This was attributable to an increase of $1.0 million in legal expenses
related to the maintenance and protection of our intellectual property, an increase of $0.3 million
related to consulting and severance expenses and an increase related to salary expense for the
addition of new personnel. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue
increased to 32.6% from 30.1% in the same respective periods as a result of the increase in
expenses. We have reached a settlement in the lawsuit that we initiated to protect our intellectual
property and as a result, we expect that our legal expenses will decrease going forward.
Research and Development Expenses
Our Animal Applications segments research and development expenses decreased approximately $0.2
million in the nine months ended September 30, 2007 compared to the nine months ended September 30,
2006. The decrease is primarily due to the completion of a large scale RFID antenna project in
2006. Research and development expenses relate to new product development associated with RFID
microchips and related scanners.

# Variance not meaningful
Revenues
Our GPS and Radio Communications segments revenue increased approximately $11.5 million in the
nine months ended September 30, 2007 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2006. The
increase in revenue was due to an increase in sales of SARBE products of $1.6 million, an increase
in sales of alarm products of $0.7 million, an increase in Radio Hire division sales of $0.7
million and the inclusion of $8.2 million of sales from our McMurdo division, which was acquired on
April 5, 2007.
Gross Profit and Gross Profit Margin
Our GPS and Radio Communications segments gross profit increased approximately $5.4 million in the
nine months ended September 30, 2007 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2006. The
increase in gross profit relates to the previously mentioned increase in sales from our existing
businesses and the inclusion of approximately $3.5 million of gross profit from McMurdo. The gross
profit margin decreased to 49.1% in the nine months ended September 30, 2007 compared to 51.3% in
the nine months ended September 30, 2006. The decrease primarily relates to the inclusion of
McMurdo as currently, we earn lower margins at our McMurdo division than we do for our existing
business lines. Excluding McMurdo, Signatures gross profit margin increased slightly due to the
increased sales and favorable product mix.
27
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Our GPS and Radio Communications segments selling, general and administrative expenses increased
approximately $3.2 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2007 compared to the nine months
ended September 30, 2006. Excluding the $1.6 million of expenses related to McMurdo, the remaining
increase is due primarily to an increase in exhibition and advertising expenses, increased overseas
travel related to SARBE sales, increased bonus and commission expenses, an increase in
compensation expense associated with the addition of new personnel and general salary increases. As
a percentage of revenue, selling, general and administrative expenses decreased to 42.0% in the
nine months ended September 30, 2007 from 55.2% in the nine months ended September 30, 2006. The
decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue resulted
primarily from the increase in sales and lower selling, general and administrative expenses as a
percentage of revenue at McMurdo.
Research and Development Expenses
Our GPS and Radio Communications segments research and development expenses increased
approximately $1.6 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2007 compared to the nine months
ended September 30, 2006. This increase was driven by the addition of $1.1 million of development
costs for the development of a new search and rescue beacon. The development of the new pilot
location beacon is more fully discussed in the comparison of our GPS and Radio Communications
segments results of operations for the three months ended September 30, 2007. In addition, we
incurred approximately $0.5 million in research and development expense related to the acquisition
of McMurdo, which was acquired on April 5, 2007.

Selling, General and Administrative Expense
Our Corporate segments selling, general and administrative expenses increased approximately $1.4
million in the nine months ended September 30, 2007 compared to the nine months ended September 30,
2006. This was primarily attributable to $0.8 million of severance expense for our former CEO, $0.1
million related to the executive search for a new CEO and an increase in compensation expense.
Merger Expenses
Our Corporate segments Merger expenses of $0.8 million for the three months ended September 30,
2007 consist of primarily legal, investment banker and board of directors fees incurred in
connection with the Merger Agreement between us and Applied Digital.
28
Consolidated
Interest Expense
Interest expense was $3.3 million and $0.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and
2006, respectively. The increase in interest expense relates primarily to interest payments on
higher debt balances, debt discount and deferred debt cost amortization and the write off of $1.5
million of deferred financing and debt discount costs associated with the early payoff of our
debenture and Greater Bay facility.
Derivative Warrant Liability
Income from the change in the fair value of the derivative warrant liability was $0.5 million for
the nine months ended September 30, 2007. This income is attributed to the change in the fair value
of the warrant liability associated with the warrants issued in connection with the debenture and
subsequent amendment. As the warrants contain certain anti-dilution and cash settlement provisions,
we have accounted for the fair value of the warrants as a liability. At each balance sheet date,
the warrants fair value is revalued using the Black-Scholes valuation model with changes in value
recorded in the statement of operations as income or expense.
Other Income
The
increase in other income relates primarily to the settlement of a
legal matter during the nine months ended September 30, 2007
that we initiated to protect certain of our intellectual property.
Income Taxes
We had
income tax expense of approximately $397,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 versus an income
tax benefit of $68,000 in the same period of 2006 related to our foreign operations. We account for
income taxes under the asset and liability approach. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are
recognized for the expected future tax consequences attributed to differences between the financial
statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the enacted tax rates expected to apply to
taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to reverse. A
valuation allowance is provided against net deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not
that a tax benefit will not be realized. Due to our current tax position, we have recorded a
valuation allowance to fully reserve our U.S. net deferred tax asset.
Net Loss from Continuing Operations
Our net
loss from continuing operations increased $5.9 million to $8.7 million for the nine months
ended September 30, 2007 compared to a loss of $2.8 million for the nine months ended September 30,
2006. These results were primarily driven by the decrease in the Animal Applications segments
gross profit margin percentage, accompanied by increased legal fees associated with the maintenance
and protection of our intellectual property, primarily driven by the Datamars litigation, an
increase in research and development expenses at Signature, the
Merger related fees, an increase
in interest expense and an increase in the income tax provision from
foreign operations. These increases were offset slightly by income from the reduction in the
derivative warrant liability.
Liquidity and Capital Resources From Continuing Operations
Our principal use of liquidity is for operating cash requirements, capital needs, debt repayments
and acquisitions. Our primary sources of liquidity have been from operating cash flow and proceeds
from investing and financing activities. We expect to generate cash from operations and from
financing activities in amounts sufficient to fund the operations of our business over the next
twelve months.
However, if our operating cash flow is less than expected or we are unable to obtain the financing
necessary to fund our current level of operations, we will be required to implement cost
reductions, which may limit our growth and negatively impact our future results of operations. Our
historical sources of liquidity have included proceeds from the sale of common stock, proceeds from
the issuance of debt, proceeds from the sale of one of our businesses, proceeds from the sale of
shares of Applied Digitals common stock under share exchange agreements, and proceeds from the
exercise of stock options and warrants. In addition to these sources, our other sources of
liquidity include borrowings from Applied Digital or the forebearance
by Applied Digital of amounts due to them, the raising of capital through private
placements or public offerings of debt or equity securities and proceeds from the sale of
additional businesses.
Cash Flows
Cash was $1.5 million at September 30, 2007 and at December 31, 2006. During the nine months ended
September 30, 2007, $3.7 million of net cash was used in operating activities, compared to $3.9
million in the same period in 2006.
29
In 2007, the cash used in operating activities was due to an increase in accounts receivable of
$2.7 million primarily from the acquisition of McMurdo, the loss
incurred of $7.8 million and an
increase in inventory of $1.8 million as a result of a buildup of e-tag inventory and SARBE
products to meet demand. Offsetting these amounts were an increase in accounts payable and accrued
expenses of $4.7 million due to an increase in payables in connection with increased manufacturing
activity as well as $2.8 million associated with McMurdo operations, the write-off of $1.5 million
of deferred financing and debt discount costs, non-cash charges of $1.2 million for equity based
compensation and $1.8 million for depreciation and amortization and a credit of $0.5 million for
the reduction of the derivative warrant liability.
Net cash used in investing activities totaled $5.6 million in the nine months ended September 30,
2007 compared to net cash used in investing activities of $2.9 million in the nine months ended
September 30, 2006. The principal uses of cash from investing activities in the nine months ended
September 30, 2007 were payments for acquisition costs of $4.3 million and property and equipment
expenditures of $1.5 million.
Net cash provided by financing activities totaled $9.2 million in the nine months ended September
30, 2007 compared to net cash provided by financing activities of $0.7 million in the nine months
ended September 30, 2006. In the nine months ended September 30, 2007, cash provided by financing
activities consisted of net cash borrowed on the Revolving Facility of $4.5 million and proceeds of
$7.0 million on an intercompany term loan with Applied Digital partially offset by payments on
notes payable and long term debt of $1.0 million and debt issuance costs of $1.2 million related to
the Revolving Facility and intercompany term loan.
Financing and Liquidity
In the nine months ended September 30, 2007, we obtained approximately $10.5 million in cash and
increased our total amount of debt from $8.2 million as of December 31, 2006 to $18.9 million as of
September 30, 2007. The primary reason for the increase in debt relates to the funding of the
McMurdo acquisition, working capital to fund the operations of McMurdo, payments for property and
equipment and general working capital purposes. The proceeds of the debenture were used primarily
to fund the McMurdo acquisition.
The $19.9 million of debt outstanding, excluding $2.4 million of debt discounts, at September 30,
2007 is comprised of the following (in thousands):

Equipment Loans-DSD Holding
DSD Holding is party to equipment loans which are collateralized by production equipment. Principal
and interest payments totaling approximately DKK 0.3 million ($66,000 at September 30, 2007) are
payable quarterly. Payments are due through July 2010. The interest rate on the loans is variable
and range from 6.0% to 7.1% as of September 30, 2007.
Line of Credit-DSD Holding
DSD Holding and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Daploma International A/S, are party to a credit
agreement with Danske Bank (the Credit Facility). On June 1, 2006, DSD Holding and Daploma
International A/S amended the borrowing availability from DKK 12.0 million (approximately $2.3
million at September 30, 2007) to DKK 18.0 million (approximately $3.4 million at September 30,
2007). In connection with the amendment, we executed a Letter of Support which confirms that we
will maintain our holding of 100% of the share capital of Daploma, and that we will neither sell,
nor pledge, nor in any way dispose of any part of Daploma or otherwise reduce our influence on
Daploma without the prior consent of Danske Bank. Interest is determined quarterly and is based on
the international rates Danske Bank can establish on a loan in the same currency on the
international market plus 2.0%. At September 30, 2007, the annual interest rate on the Credit
Facility was 6.6%. Borrowing availability under the Credit Facility considers guarantees
outstanding. At September 30, 2007, the borrowing availability on the Credit Facility was DKK 0.3
million (approximately $58,000 at September
30, 2007). The Credit Facility will remain effective until further notice. DSD Holding can
terminate the Credit Facility and pay the outstanding balance, or Danske Bank may demand the credit
line be settled immediately at any given time, without prior notice.
30
Note Payable-DSD Holding
As of September 30, 2007, DSD Holding is party to a note payable with Danske Bank. Principal and
interest payments of DKK 0.3 million ($57,000 at September 30, 2007) plus interest are payable
quarterly through December 15, 2008. The interest rate on the note is calculated based on the
international rates Danske Bank can establish on a loan in DKK in the international market plus
2.0%. The interest rate on the note payable was 5.5% at September 30, 2007.
Invoice Discounting Agreement
Signature has entered into an Invoice Discounting Agreement, (as amended, the RBS Invoice
Discounting Agreement) with The Royal Bank of Scotland Commercial Services Limited (RBS). The
RBS Invoice Discounting Agreement provides for Signature to sell with full title guarantee most of
its receivables, as defined in the RBS Invoice Discounting Agreement. Under the RBS Invoice
Discounting agreement, RBS prepays 80% of the receivables sold in the United Kingdom and 80% of the
receivables sold in the rest of the world, not to exceed an outstanding balance of £2.0 million
(approximately $4.1 million at September 30, 2007) at any given time. RBS pays Signature the
remainder of the receivable upon collection of the receivable. Receivables which remain outstanding
90 days from the end of the invoice month become ineligible and RBS may require Signature to
repurchase the receivable. The discounting charge accrues at an annual rate of 1.5% above the base
rate as defined in the RBS Invoice Discounting Agreement (5.3% at September 30, 2007). Signature
pays a commission charge to RBS of 0.16% of each receivable balance sold. The RBS Invoice
Discounting Agreement requires a minimum commission charge of £833 (approximately $1,700) per
month. Discounting charges of $28,000 and $78,000 are included in interest expense for the three
and nine months ended September 30, 2007, respectively. As of September 30, 2007, $1.8 million of
receivables were financed under the RBS Invoice Discounting Agreement.
Revolving Facility
Effective August 31, 2007, we and certain of our subsidiaries, Digital Angel Technology Corporation,
Fearing Manufacturing Co., Inc. and Digital Angel International (collectively Eligible
Subsidiaries) entered into a $6.0 million revolving asset-based financing transaction with Kallina
Corporation (Kallina or the Lender), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Laurus Master Fund, Ltd.,
pursuant to the terms of a Security Agreement. Under the terms of the Security Agreement, we may
borrow, from time to time, an amount equal to the lesser of the amount of availability under the
borrowing base and $6.0 million, subject to certain reserves that the Lender is authorized to take
in its reasonable commercial judgment (the Revolving Facility). The borrowing base is calculated
as a percentage of the total amount of eligible accounts and inventory owned by us and our Eligible
Subsidiaries. We had $0.7 million of available funds under the Revolving Facility at September 30,
2007. Amounts outstanding under the Revolving Facility accrue
interest at a rate per annum equal to the prime
rate plus 2.0%, but not less than 10.0% at any time. The Revolving Facility matures on August 31,
2010. At September 30, 2007, the interest rate for amounts borrowed on the Revolving Facility was
10.0%. We and our Eligible Subsidiaries have pledged all of our respective assets, excluding the
stock of all foreign subsidiaries other than stock held by us in Signature, in support of the
obligations under the Revolving Facility. We used a portion of the proceeds from the Revolving
Facility to terminate and pay-off all obligations under the Greater Bay facility.
In connection with the Revolving Facility, we issued warrants to purchase 967,742 shares of our
common stock at a per share exercise price of $1.69. The warrants can be exercised at
any time prior to August 31, 2014. The warrants are valued at approximately $1.0 million
using the following assumptions; volatility of 73.08%, risk free interest rate of 4.4%, dividend
rate of 0.0% and expected life of seven years. The amount was recorded as a discount to the Revolving Facility and
is being amortized to interest expense over the life of the Revolving Facility. We also
entered into a Registration Rights Agreement with the Lender pursuant to which we have
agreed to file a registration statement no later than December 31, 2007 covering the resale
by the Lender of those shares received upon exercise of the
warrants.
Intercompany Term Loan
Effective August 31, 2007, we entered into a $7.0 million secured term note (intercompany term loan)
with Applied Digital. The intercompany term loan accrues interest at
a rate per annum equal to the prime rate
plus 3.0%, but no less than 11.0%, and matures on August 31, 2009. At September 30, 2007, the
interest rate was 11.0%. We are obligated to make monthly interest payments beginning October 2007
and monthly principal payments of approximately $167,000 beginning March 2008 as well as a final payment of $4.0
million at maturity. As consideration for the intercompany term loan, we issued Applied Digital
921,402 shares of our common stock. We determined the value of the
stock to be approximately $1.4 million, based
on the closing price of our stock on the issuance date, which was recorded as a debt discount. The
debt discount is being amortized to interest expense over the life of
the intercompany term loan. In addition, we incurred a
total of approximately $0.6 million of financing fees in connection with the
Revolving Facility and intercompany term loan. These fees were recorded as debt
issuance costs and are being amortized to interest expense over the lives of the
Revolving Facility and intercompany term loan. We used the proceeds to repay all amounts due under the debenture.
Based on our election to prepay the debenture, we wrote off approximately $1.5 million of deferred financing costs and debt discount associated with the debenture and the Greater Bay facility in the third quarter of 2007.
31
10.25% Senior Secured Debenture
On
February 6, 2007, we entered into a Securities Purchase
Agreement pursuant to which we sold a 10.25% senior secured debenture (debenture) in the original principal amount of
$6.0 million and issued five-year warrants to purchase 699,600
shares of our common stock
at a per share exercise price of $2.973. Concurrently with the
Securities Purchase Agreement, we executed a Registration Rights Agreement (the
Registration Agreement), pursuant to which we are
obligated to register for resale shares of our common stock sufficient to
cover the shares necessary to pay the principal and interest payments due on the debenture and the
shares underlying the warrants. If we do not comply with the registration deadlines set
forth in the Registration Agreement, we will be obligated to pay each Investor, pro rata,
a default payment equal to 1% of the aggregate purchase price of the debenture for each month the
registration default is not cured, capped at 9%, and the exercise price is subject to certain reset
provisions. The Registration Agreement has been amended to extend the
registration effective deadline to
either: (1) a date no later than 60 days following the earlier of the closing of the Merger or December 31,
2007, or (2) a date no later than 120 days following the earlier of the closing of the Merger or December
31, 2007 if the Registration Statement is subject to a full review by the SEC.
On
June 28, 2007, we entered into an amendment of the Securities Purchase Agreement in
connection with the planned sale of OuterLink and as consideration,
we exchanged the
699,600 existing warrants for 841,000 newly issued seven-year warrants with an exercise price of
$1.701.
The
warrants contain certain anti-dilution provisions and, accordingly,
we have accounted
for the fair value of the warrants as a derivative liability subject to SFAS No. 133, Accounting
for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. At issuance, the fair value of the 699,600
warrants, as calculated using the Black-Scholes valuation model, was
$1,254,000 using the following
assumptions; volatility of 83.13%, risk free interest rate of 4.6%, dividend rate of 0.0% and
expected life of 5 years. The fair value of the warrants was recorded as a discount to the
debenture and amortized to interest expense over the life of the debenture, which was repaid on
August 31, 2007 as more fully discussed below. Upon issuance of
the 841,000 warrants, we recognized $127,000 of additional interest expense using the following Black-Scholes valuation
assumptions; volatility 73.93%, risk free interest rate of 4.6%, dividend rate of 0.0% and expected
life of 7.0 years. The warrants fair value is required to be revalued at each balance sheet date
using the Black-Scholes valuation model with changes in value recorded in the condensed
consolidated statement of operations as income or expense. At September 30, 2007, the warrants
derivative fair value for the 841,000 warrants outstanding was $717,000 using the following
assumptions; volatility of 73.27%, risk free interest rate of 4.4%, dividend rate of 0.0% and
expected life of 6.75 years. Approximately $241,000 and $537,000 of income, net of the expense
related to the exchange of the warrants, is included in the condensed consolidated statement of
operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007, respectively, as a result of the
changes in the fair value and replacement of the warrants.
32
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
We have operations and sales in various regions of the world. See Item 1, Business-Financial
Information About Geographic Areas in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended, for the fiscal
year ended December 31, 2006. Additionally, we export to and import from other countries. Our
operations may, therefore, be subject to volatility because of currency fluctuations, inflation and
changes in political and economic conditions in these countries. Sales and expenses may be
denominated in local currencies and may be affected as currency fluctuations affect our product
prices and operating costs or those of our competitors. We have incurred $0.3 million in net
foreign currency gains during the nine months ended September 30, 2007.
We are exposed to certain market risks that are inherent in our financial instruments. These
instruments arise from transactions entered into in the normal course of business. While we cannot
predict or manage our ability to refinance existing debt or the impact interest rate movements will
have on our existing debt, we continue to evaluate our financial position on an ongoing basis.
Our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006 contains further information
regarding our market risk.

PART II OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
The information set forth in Note 14 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I,
Item I is incorporated herein by reference.
ITEM 1.A RISK FACTORS
Our stock price and business
may be adversely affected if the Merger is not completed.
If the Merger is not completed, the market price of our common stock may decline. If the Merger is
not completed, we will still be required to pay significant costs incurred in connection with the
Merger, including legal, accounting, and financial advisory fees. Additionally, if the Merger is
not completed, we will have incurred significant costs, including the diversion of management
resources, for which we will have received little or no benefit.
ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS
As part of the consideration for the intercompany term loan, the terms of which are more fully
described in Note 6 to our condensed consolidated financial statements, we issued Applied Digital
856,886 shares of our common stock and agreed to pay Applied Digital a structuring fee of $100,000, which we paid by issuing to Applied Digital 64,516 shares of our common stock. Thus, the total
number of shares of our common stock received in connection with the intercompany term loan was
921,402. These securities were issued without registration in reliance upon the exemption provided
by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated
thereunder.
