ITEM 1. BUSINESS

GENERAL

En Pointe Technologies, Inc. was originally incorporated in Texas on January 25, 1993 and reincorporated in Delaware on February 6, 1996 and serves as a holding company and a provider of administrative services to its subsidiaries.  We are a national provider of information technology products (hardware and software) and value-added services with a customer base consisting primarily of large and medium sized companies and government entities.  We use proprietary and non-proprietary software and systems to drop-ship information technology products to our customers through an electronically linked network of suppliers that include distributors and certain manufacturers in the United States.  This software allows us to serve as an electronic clearinghouse of computers and computer related products without many of the risks and costs associated with maintaining significant inventory. In addition to seeking efficiencies and growth in our traditional large-enterprise focused core business, we continue to devote resources to the development of our managed and professional services infrastructure.  En Pointe is represented in approximately 17 sales and service markets throughout the United States.  In addition, we maintain a value-added integration center that we recently moved to in October 2006 in Rancho Cucamonga, California that is ISO 9001:2000 certified.

We provide our customers with cost effective electronic commerce tools that help them to maximize their purchasing power when searching for and acquiring computer equipment and other technology products.  One of our available tools, AccessPointe^tm, is a uniquely powerful and flexible Internet procurement system that is electronically linked to the extensive warehousing, purchasing and distribution functions of our suppliers.  AccessPointe^tm provides ease-of-use, real-time accuracy, and the power to control the purchasing process, from paperless requisition creation to line-item detail delivery tracking.  The direct links to our suppliers enhance our capacity to provide our customers with automated direct access to an extensive range of products at competitive prices.

BUSINESS MODEL

Our business model covers hardware and software fulfillment and value-added services.  Hardware fulfillment extends beyond efficient delivery to include pre-deployment services that we perform prior to shipment, including imaging and image management, configurations, asset tagging, inventory management and master packing.  The procurement process is vital to hardware fulfillment and we try to make this process as efficient as possible for our customers.  Value-added services include ongoing managed services such as management of information technology infrastructure as well as professional services that provide specific information technology solutions for our customers. Software fulfillment includes presales consulting, monitoring license compliance and managing software publishers’ relationships.

The hardware fulfillment business relies on our virtual inventory model that has been developed and enhanced over time, but since our inception in 1993, our core concepts have remained the same.  The virtual inventory model’s essential elements are (i) a low cost overhead structure resulting from the automation of many management and operating functions; (ii) effective electronic information systems; and (iii) reduced working capital requirements due to the limited amount of physical inventory that we hold and our allied distributor relationships. Our sophisticated and customized enterprise resource planning system, referred to as SAP, allows us to monitor sales, product returns, inventories, profitability and accounts receivable at the sales representative and customer level.  Additionally, we have integrated product purchasing and customer invoicing into our information systems to expedite procurement and billing. AccessPointe^TM, an eBusiness platform, provides us and our customers with up-to-date product information and streamlines the procurement process.  The completely integrated eBusiness information technology architecture helps us maintain effective online communication links with our sales representatives, selected suppliers, and many of our customers.  AccessPointe^tm is provided free of charge to our customers to better enable them to execute transactions and research their orders online with us.

We continue to focus on cost control and strive to maintain a low-cost overhead structure through the automation of many of our management and operating functions. In fiscal 2003, we introduced another low-cost overhead element to our business model by relocating many of our “back-office” functions to a service provider in Islamabad, Pakistan.  Effective October 1, 2006, we continued our cost control focus by acquiring a 70% ownership interest of that service provider in Pakistan, Ovex Technologies (Private) Limited, or Ovex.

The day-to-day customer support function is shared between a centralized staff at headquarters, back-office contract workers in Pakistan, and local account management.  This helps us improve field response yet maintains direct access to all back-office functions and senior management. Increased local coverage has fueled efforts to identify new opportunities. We believe that time in front of customers is the top priority for all account managers, account executives, and senior management to build long lasting relationships and identify business solutions for existing and new customers.

Our product sales are conducted principally from both traditional branch offices as well as from virtual offices which are located in approximately 15 metropolitan markets in 11 states. Our service business is offered nationally and is managed and staffed by our in-house technicians using, when necessary, limited engagements of contracted third party service providers. We believe in seeking out new markets wherever there is a business case to support the incurring of additional personnel expense or whenever specific account opportunities arise.

We have been and continue to be, since May, 2002, certified as a minority-controlled company by the National Minority Supplier Development Council. The certification is considered valuable because many large buying organizations, private enterprise accounts and state and local government agencies have supplier diversity initiatives that may require certain purchases to be made from certified minority controlled companies.

An integral component of our business model is our ability to access an extensive inventory of information technology products stocked by our suppliers through our integrated supply chain information systems that are key features of AccessPointe^TM.  Additionally, the intelligent purchasing feature of our software allows our purchasing department to place multiple line item orders automatically from multiple sources at the lowest possible price, maximizing the fill rate and increasing the potential profitability on each order.

The data provided by our customized information system allows our sales representatives to design each customer’s orders according to their particular needs. Product can be delivered directly from suppliers to the customer or processed through our configuration facility located in Rancho Cucamonga, California.  We simplify the ordering, staging, and delivery process through supply chain management for any size order.  Our configuration facility is located close to our major suppliers’ warehouse locations for convenient same day pick-up of orders. This provides the configuration facility with the flexibility to meet stringent service level agreements and still function economically by limiting inventory to customer ordered product.  Once our configuration facility tests and loads systems with predefined customer images, systems are then shipped ready-to-install, saving customers money in downstream deployment costs.  Just-in-time configuration is well supported by our information system that identifies which of our suppliers can supply the desired product at the best price when needed from different products offered from multiple suppliers.

A distinct advantage of our business model is the economy achieved by the conservation of working capital through leveraging our virtual inventory model that engages the extensive warehousing, purchasing, distribution, marketing and information-technology functions of our suppliers.  Since inception, we have been an innovator in using the drop shipping capabilities of our suppliers whenever product configuration is not required.  Drop shipping avoids the costs and risks associated with maintaining inventory, enabling us to quickly adapt our product offerings to changing market demands.  As product proliferation has occurred, we believe that our limited inventory position has given us a competitive advantage with respect to price and availability on a broad range of products.  We do, however, still maintain and stage inventory for our customers, as necessary, whenever it’s economical and fulfills a business purpose.  We believe our business model allows us to have the capacity to increase sales with minimal additional capital investment.

Our value-added services business, by offering certain essential and highly individualized services, principally the optimization and management of customer’s information technology infrastructure, caters to multi-year service contracts, which constitutes the majority of our service business.  Our service agreements are designed exclusively for the Windows/Intel/Cisco operating environment, which is the dominant industry platform.  Our services include life cycle management which encompasses hardware configuration, customer customization, deployment, install/move/add/change, maintenance, asset management and help desk.  Our customer base is broad and encompasses both large national accounts as well as small to medium businesses and governmental agencies.  Various service fee arrangements are available from which customers are supported by certified technical engineers that are trained on each customer’s specific requirements.  The fee arrangements range from fixed-price in which our personnel may be shared to cost-plus for dedicated on-site personnel, or a combination of both, depending on the customer’s needs.

We also offer an array of value-added professional services that include needs assessment, design solutions, deployment and post deployment support, and help desk for our customers.  In addition, we provide at our ISO 9001:2000 certified integration facility configuration services, including hardware configuration, software installation and custom imaging services, testing, aggregation, and asset tagging.

Whether customers buy their products from us or others, we can provide them with extensive logistics support. In support of that growing part of our business, during the later half of fiscal 2005, we completed the development of the Logistics Management System, or LMS, software program.  The LMS program is integrated with SAP and allows us to more efficiently work with our customers and common carriers. The LMS program’s single system environment has the capability to manage and track logistic activities, providing customers with detailed asset reporting as well as asset life cycle management.  The LMS program has the following benefits:

•	overall customer project planning;
•	detailed planning and scheduling of customer assets to be serviced;
•	receipt confirmation of customer assets and subsequent tracking ability;
•	periodic detailed customer asset reporting by serial number; and
•	management of customer life cycle process to include:
	–  reconditioning and packaging,
	–  redeployment, and
	–  liquidation, identification of leased assets and compliance with lease terms, and work order history by serial number of each customer asset.

The software licensing business employs highly skilled personnel to provide comprehensive solutions to customers needing software solutions.  This specialized group provides value to customers in their presales consulting, monitoring license compliance and managing software publishers’ relationships.

Although we have been for several years an authorized Microsoft Large Account Reseller as well as an authorized agent for many other software publishers, we had not fully developed the operational and system capabilities to expand sales opportunities. In early fiscal year 2005, recognizing that need, we began the process of enhancing the capabilities of SAP and AccessPointe^TM to improve upon presales consulting, monitoring license compliance and managing software publishers’ relationships.  Upon completion of the software upgrades in June 2005, we now believe that we have a more efficient software selling process that has produced and will continue to produce noticed improvements for our customers’ ordering and maintenance needs.  The program provides the following benefits:

• maintains software agreements for all major software publishers;

• incorporates a dynamic data model that simplifies reporting processes to allow improved identification of customer trends, sales opportunities, and customer milestones;

• provides real-time product configuration that reduces time for sales representatives to identify customer requested software products;

• restricts the data entry to a structured format that ensures adherence to vendor and publisher rules, thereby avoiding the costly retroactive correction of errors in processing;

• manages software agreements to offer customers the ability to purchase software more efficiently by increasing their awareness of software agreement terms, purchasing history, and needs;

• identifies software products for compliance with customer software agreements;

• allows stricter service level agreements to be met by reducing turnaround time for quotes and orders; and

• manages licensing agreements assuring customers are quoted and sold products in accordance with their existing agreements.

EBUSINESS

We offer competitive advantages for our customers through use of modern information technologies, and inventive business processes.  By use of our virtual inventories and online procurement and service solutions we leverage technology to enable our business model.

We begin by employing Enterprise Resource Planning, or ERP, technology via an SAP-based system that maintains our operational and financial processes within a structure that provides for flexibility with full executive control and accountability. This system forms the core of our organization and maintains control over every transaction whether with vendors or customers.  Reporting, decision making support, inventory control, and logistic management are some of the key functions of our ERP system that have been customized to offer a broad range of services including; order processing from our virtual inventory, customized configuration orders, customer logistic and disposal management, software license management as well as back-office accounting for our professional services.

To make business transactions with us easy and intuitive, we have created our online Internet-based application AccessPointe™ dedicated toward advancing our e-business by using solutions that provide for integration with each customer’s applications and unique procurement processes.  AccessPointe™ provides customers with a complete life cycle procurement solution that helps put customers in control of their organization’s spending practices and standardizes their information technology selections.  AccessPointe™ does this by providing customer-based approval workflow as well as allowing customers to encourage or enforce ordering for certain products over others.  AccessPointe™ provides the capability for customers to have highly customized views of our product catalog by restricting products they don’t want to order.  With AccessPointe™, customers can do real-time searches for all products available from En Pointe’s vendors or, in the case of software inquiries, customers can confine their searches to those software products that apply to their specific software license contracts.  Transaction history is also available from AccessPointe™ in customizable reports that can be programmed to generate whenever desired.  AccessPointe™ provides confidence that our customers’ transactions will be secure and private, and can integrate with other information technology online marketplaces.

Our professional and managed service teams employ tools that allow customers to monitor the progress of our service engagements, and to have service dispatch and reports available to other customer systems to ensure the services we provide are coordinated with all other customer processes and departments.  These tools can provide online status of open or scheduled service work, report outstanding items, integrate with customer systems, and allow our customers to partner with us.

In addition to our main systems, we have ancillary systems that automate our internal processing of transactions.  These tools and application solutions allow us to create custom information technology product and service catalogs for our customers and also provide capabilities to integrate with customer order and payment processes within our distributor network.  These solutions are flexible enough to allow us to not only manage content from any number of vendors but to also be able to provide data management services daily to select customers and support custom order integration with customers with complex and unique ordering needs.

MANAGED AND PROFESSIONAL SERVICES

We provide a full range of information technology life-cycle services, including the following:

• needs assessment,

• solution design,

• image development,

• configuration,

• deployment and implementation,

• install/move/add/change,

• system refresh and disposal services,

• post deployment support and training,

• help desk,

• maintenance, and

• asset management

We employ best practices to provide high quality, low cost service solutions that address client information technology infrastructure needs, from the desktop to the wide area network. We do our own technical recruiting for these positions, to better control the quality of our staff and to provide timely and cost competitive alternatives suitable for the varying skill and/or geographic requirements of our customers.  A team dedicated to sales of services complements the larger general sales staff to uncover opportunities within existing accounts and to seek new business.  For the three fiscal years ended in 2007, net sales from services provided 13.8%, 14.5% and 14.9%, respectively, of our total net sales.  Seven large customers accounted for approximately 55.4% of our total service revenues for the 2007 fiscal year as compared to approximately 57.1% and 48.3% for the respective 2006 and 2005 fiscal years.

We have historically focused more on our managed services business than our professional services opportunities because managed services usually involve multi-year desktop and server support contracts for specified periods of time.  These engagements typically result in relatively consistent revenue streams that enable us to make strategic long-term investments to expand our service offerings and organizational infrastructure.  Professional services, on the other hand, tend to require higher levels of investment without the relative predictability of managed services engagements.  Nonetheless, they play a critical role in providing engineering services and skilled resources necessary to fully support the requirements and expectations of a managed service program.

Our enterprise help desk services are offered either on-site at the customer location or through our centralized call center.  We maintain a technically trained staff that resolves problems during the initial phone call, thereby decreasing customer down time and increasing end user productivity.  This also reduces the need to dispatch technicians for on-site visits, which reduces the overall costs of customer support.

Included in our professional service offerings are: desktop and server design; messaging; storage; wireless, broadband and other network support; and security.  With system security being of such concern, we require our engineers and consultants to become security certified.  We plan that service engagements offered by us will include a security focus that will differentiate our professional services offerings from those of our competitors.  While we have not invested significantly in this area relative to our managed services, customer demand for these services appears to be increasing and we will respond to opportunities when we can leverage our existing infrastructure or when it complements an existing customer support agreement.

One area in which we continue to expand is in offerings to customers of “return on investment” consulting.  We assist customers to maximize the return on their information technology investment dollars by moving to new hardware platforms, consolidating servers and storage, and efficiently managing human resources with our expertise in Active Directory, a Microsoft program that allows organizations to manage information about network resources and users.  We also have helped customers implement technologies that allow them to fix end-users’ computers remotely, without having to dispatch an onsite engineer, and compute for our customers the savings they realize by minimizing their down time.

We use Clarify, an industry-leading customer relationship management system, to create and track our service calls and to manage service parts.  This system measures and reports initial response times, on-site arrival times, and call closure or resolution times. From voluminous call ticket data, this system compiles and calculates the corresponding service levels so that we can be measured against industry standards, our company objectives, and customer commitments.  This enables us to improve our processes to achieve greater levels of customer satisfaction.

PRODUCTS

The majority of our sales are information technology products. We currently make available to our customers an extensive selection of products at what we believe to be a competitive combination of price and availability.  We currently offer over 300,000 information technology products from hundreds of manufacturers, including, without limitation, International Business Machines Corporation, or IBM, Hewlett-Packard Company, or HP, Dell Computer Corporation, or Dell, Lenovo, Cisco Systems, Inc., Fujitsu Limited, Apple Inc., 3Com Corporation, Microsoft Corporation, or Microsoft, Toshiba Corporation, Kingston Technology Corporation, Lexmark International, Inc., Sony Corporation, Symantec Corporation, McAfee, Inc., BEA Systems, Inc., Avaya, Inc. and Altiris, Inc.  We are also one of a limited number of Microsoft Certified Large Account Resellers.  We have different levels of certifications on many of these product lines.  Products that we offer include desktop and laptop computers, servers, monitors, memory, peripherals and accessories, operating systems, application software, consumables and supplies.  In fiscal 2007, products manufactured by HP accounted for approximately 20% of our product sales in terms of revenue compared with 22% and 24% for the two consecutive prior fiscal years.

BUSINESS PROCESS OUTSOURCING

Effective October 1, 2006, we acquired 70% of the capital stock of two privately owned Pakistani companies, Ovex Technologies (Private) Limited and Ovex Pakistan (Private) Limited.  Ovex Technologies (Private) Limited was engaged in providing business process outsourcing, or BPO, services exclusively for the Company’s internal needs as well as for the customers of PBPO while Ovex Pakistan (Private) Limited provided services for the BPO market in Pakistan.

Subsequently, on July 7, 2007, the two companies were approved for merger by the Pakistan Court effective October 1, 2006.  The surviving company in the merger was Ovex Technologies (Private) Limited, or Ovex.  Ovex employs approximately 803 people. Since 2003, Ovex has provided us with BPO services for our selling and marketing operations. Commencing with the quarter ended June 30, 2006, Ovex has also assumed the responsibilities for our accounting and finance outsourcing.

With the addition of Ovex to our portfolio, we have continued to recognize the growth opportunities present in BPO services and have committed to its future as a viable segment of our business model. Ovex complements our existing investment in Premier BPO, Inc., or PBPO, a privately-held corporation that promotes and sells BPO services to U.S. businesses.   PBPO also has a wholly-owned Chinese subsidiary, Premier BPO Tianjin Co., LTD, or PBPOChina, that it formed in fiscal 2007 that provides BPO services in China similar to the services provided by Ovex in Pakistan.

Ovex has an ongoing business relationship with PBPO by virtue of having been the principal provider of BPO services to PBPO’s U.S. customers.  In addition, the approximate 30% owners of Ovex collectively own 16% of the outstanding shares of common stock of PBPO, as well as 50% of the outstanding shares of Series A non-voting convertible preferred stock of PBPO and have a representative on its board of directors. We, in turn, own 30% of the outstanding voting shares of PBPO’s common stock, 50% of the outstanding shares of PBPO’s Series A non-voting convertible preferred stock, have a representative on PBPO’s board of directors and consolidate PBPO in our financial reports as a variable interest entity, or VIE, in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No. 46.

PBPO shares workspace with Ovex in Islamabad for a nominal fee using contracted Ovex workers and, effective September 2005, entered into a five year cost-plus fixed fee service agreement with Ovex to supply contracted employees and an operating facility in Lahore, Pakistan.  In addition, PBPO has agreed to provide certain marketing services for Ovex. The agreements can be terminated with thirty days written notice by PBPO.

COMPETITION

We operate in the highly competitive sales segment of the information technology industry, and compete with a large number and variety of types of resellers of information technology products and services.  Our competition also includes hardware and software manufacturers and national computer retailers that market directly to end-users.  Many of these companies compete principally on the basis of price and may have lower costs than us, allowing them to offer the same products and services for less.  Others have developed highly specialized practices focusing on specific segments such as security, storage, server consolidation, voice-over-internet protocol, etc.  Many of our competitors are of equal size or smaller and sell to regional markets, or are larger, and sell nationally with substantially greater financial, technical, and marketing resources available to them.

7

Some of our larger competitors are MoreDirect, Inc., CompuCom, Inc., Technology Integration Group, Pomeroy IT Solutions, Inc., CDW Corporation, PC Mall, Inc., Zones, Inc. and Insight Enterprises, Inc.  A few of these organizations stock inventory and take advantage of opportunistic seasonal buys which often affords them a pricing advantage.  On the services side, we compete with several large service providers, some of whom provide products and services and others who only provide services.  Those that provide services only include BancTec, Inc., Barrister Global Services Network. and Halifax Corporation.  We also partner with service only providers in several areas including dispatch, install, move, add and change support services.

Dell and Gateway, Inc., or Gateway, initially launched the manufacturer “direct” model and were successful in gaining market share.  Other manufacturers (e.g. IBM and HP) have adopted a direct model to actively market products directly to customers.   Sometimes this is done through an agent referral program by which independent sales agents receive commissions directly from manufacturers.  This has had the effect of reducing the role of distributors and resellers, particularly in the enterprise accounts, which is a large percentage of our traditional target market.  In order to compensate for this potential loss of business, some distributors are now also adopting sales agent programs as an alternative means of directly securing product orders to end user customers.  The “direct” business model can infringe on some value-added resellers, such as us, by taking a slice of those sales that can be resolved through a single vendor solution.

Our business model emphasizes comprehensive solution offerings with services wrapped around hardware and software products, attracting mainly enterprise organizations, government and to a lesser extent, mid-market customers.  With the sales channel continuing to consolidate, absorbing those companies that combine face-to-face direct selling with web-based models, we believe that our business model will succeed, as it embraces both comprehensive and web-based types of selling methods, allowing us to cater to various customer preferences.  We believe that we differentiate ourselves from our competitors through our eBusiness systems, services flexibility, and the scalability of our operations to meet our customers’ needs as well as providing a single point of contact for hardware, software, and services.

GETTING PRODUCT TO THE CUSTOMER

The distribution of information technology products requires considerable investment in inventory, production control systems, and the development and maintenance of distribution channels.  Resellers who assume these functions incur capital costs associated with the warehousing of products, including the costs of leasing warehouse space, maintaining inventory and tracking systems, and employing personnel to perform all the associated tasks.  Furthermore, resellers who stock inventory risk obsolescence costs, which we believe may be significant due to the rapid product innovation that characterizes this market.  These overhead and “touch” costs require expenses that we believe more than offset the lower price advantages offered for purchasing at volume discounts and holding for future sale.

Our business model eliminates many overhead and “touch” costs and substantial risks by leveraging the operational strengths of our suppliers, who have developed extensive warehousing, purchasing and distribution functions.  As a result, our continuing strategy is to limit our product inventory and the associated capital costs, allowing us to accept lower gross profit margins than many of our competitors.

By relying on the processing strengths of our suppliers, we are able to concentrate on developing our information systems and focus on more customer-oriented activities including researching, specifying, and delivering solutions.  After helping a customer select the most appropriate technology, our sales staff use our information systems to determine the best combination of price and availability for a wide variety of information technology products.

Our ability to fill and deliver orders with a high level of speed and accuracy is a key benefit of our business model.  Our sophisticated systems, which include all order processing functions, enable us to review, approve, and electronically transmit orders to the proper supplier(s) within minutes of receiving them from customers.  Most orders for in-stock product are picked, staged, and drop-shipped directly to the customer from the suppliers within 24 hours of receipt of an order, and on the same business day for orders received by 1 p.m. Pacific Time.  We usually electronically obtain order delivery information the day following shipment from our major suppliers.  We then use that information to produce an invoice, which is often sent to the customer electronically.  The standard delivery, based on product availability, is within two to three business days.  Custom configuration usually adds a few more business days to the shipping time.

GETTING PRODUCT FROM THE SUPPLIER

Our staff has the ability to access the current inventory and availability records of our suppliers, so we can quickly determine which supplier can best fill an order at a given price.  Furthermore, if any one supplier is unable to fill all of a customer’s requirements, we are generally able to split the order among multiple sources.  This increases the same-day fill rate, reduces back orders, and shrinks the time to complete an order.  Our suppliers maintain warehouses throughout the country, and their individual stocking levels are updated and readily available through our systems.  This allows our staff to determine where the product is available for shipment, better gauging the delivery time to the customer’s door.

We and our suppliers utilize various carriers, including industry giants United Parcel Service, Inc. and Federal Express Corporation, to deliver product.  Again taking advantage of a vendor’s particular expertise, we integrate the carriers’ tracking system facility into our own systems to closely monitor shipments and provide delivery status for our customers.  This provides an audit trail for the customer to update order status, by tying the customer purchase order to an En Pointe invoice and a subsequent proof of delivery.

We purchase most of our products from major distributors such as SYNNEX Corporation (“SYNNEX”), Tech Data Corporation (“Tech Data”), and Ingram Micro Inc. (“Ingram Micro”), and directly from large manufacturers such as IBM, HP (including the former Compaq), Dell and Microsoft.  These are suppliers who have the requisite system strengths and integration capabilities that enable our automated systems to function efficiently.  We have successfully implemented our business strategy due in large part to these system synergies and to our close relationships with our suppliers.  Equally significant to the success of our supplier relationships has been the volume of business we generate, as this volume has allowed us to negotiate more favorable terms with our suppliers.  See ‘‘Item 1A. Risk Factors — We Risk Depending on a Few Distributors and Manufacturers Who Could Compete With Us or Limit Our Access to Their Product Line.”

INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

Our ability to effectively compete in our market will depend significantly on our ability to protect our intellectual property.  We do not have patents on any of our technology, which we believe to be material to our future success.  We rely primarily on trade secrets, proprietary knowledge and confidentiality agreements to establish and protect our rights in intellectual property, and to maintain our competitive position.  There can be no assurance that others may not independently develop similar or superior intellectual property, gain access to our trade secrets or knowledge, or that any confidentiality agreements between us and our employees will provide meaningful protection for us in the event of any unauthorized use or disclosure of our proprietary information.

SupplyAccess, Inc., a former affiliate of ours, was liquidated in February 2002, and as a result of that liquidation, we acquired the full rights to AccessPointe^tm as well as the intellectual property rights to all of SupplyAccess, Inc’s software, copyrights, trade secrets and other proprietary technology.

We conduct our business under the trademark and service mark ‘‘En Pointe Technologies’’ as well as our logo, ‘‘AccessPointe^tm’’ and other marks.  We have been issued registrations for our ‘‘En Pointe Technologies’’ and ‘‘Building Blocks’’ marks in the United States.  We do not believe that our operations are dependent upon any of our trademarks or service marks.  We also sell products and provide services under various trademarks, service marks, and trade names that are the properties of others.  These owners have reserved all rights with respect to their respective trademarks, service marks, and trade names.

SEGMENT INFORMATION

The provisions of SFAS No. 131, “Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information”, require public companies to report financial and descriptive information about their reportable operating segments.  We identify reportable segments based on how management internally evaluates separate financial information, business activities and management responsibility.  For the year ended September 30, 2007, we operated in three segments, U.S. Sales of Products and Services, Pakistan Business Process Services, and China Business Process Services.  See our Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for disclosures of the amounts reported for the different segments.   En Pointe Technologies, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries combined with PBPO operate in the U.S. Sales of Products and Services segment, while Ovex operates in the Pakistan Business Process Services segment and PBPOChina operates in the China Business Process Services segment.

In the two prior fiscal years, 2006 and 2005, before we had acquired Ovex and before PBPOChina commenced operations we reported in only one segment.

EMPLOYEES

As of September 30, 2007, En Pointe Technologies, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries employed approximately 555 individuals including approximately 136 sales, marketing and related support personnel, 325 service and support personnel, 46 warehousing, manufacturing, and logistic personnel, 21 information technology personnel and 27 employees in administration and finance.  We believe that our ability to recruit and retain highly skilled technical and other management personnel will be critical to our ability to execute our business model and growth strategy. None of our employees are represented by a labor union or are subject to a collective bargaining agreement.  We believe that our relations with our employees are good.

In addition to our U.S. employees, we have foreign employees working for Ovex in Pakistan that provide us with back-office support, provide our affiliate, PBPO, with customer BPO services support, and provide BPO services to a customer in Pakistan.  As of September 30, 2007, Ovex employed approximately 803 people in support of us and PBPO covering  customer support, sales, telemarketing, purchasing, operations, help desk, accounting, and information technology functions.  As of September 30, 2007, PBPO and PBPOChina collectively employed a total of 68 people. 

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

This Annual Report on Form 10-K contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.  In light of the important factors that can materially affect results, including but not limited to those set forth in this paragraph and below, the inclusion of forward-looking information herein should not be regarded as a representation by us or any other person that our objectives or plans will be achieved; we may encounter competitive, technological, financial, economic and business challenges making it more difficult than expected to continue to sell our products and services; we may be unable to retain existing key sales, technical and management personnel; there may be other material adverse changes in the information technology industry or the economy, or in our operations or business; and any or all of these factors may affect our ability to continue our current sales rate or may result in lower sales volume than currently experienced.

Certain important factors affecting the forward-looking statements made herein include, but are not limited to:

• stagnate sales growth in the last five years;

• limited availability of alternative credit facilities;

• low margin products business; and

• concentration of product and service sales in several major customers.

Assumptions relating to budgeting, marketing, and other management decisions are subjective in many respects and thus susceptible to interpretations and periodic revisions based on actual experience and business developments, the impact of which may cause us to alter our marketing, capital expenditure or other budgets, which may in turn affect our business, financial position, results of operations and cash flows.  The reader is therefore cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements contained herein, which speak as of the date of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.  We do not undertake and specifically decline any obligation to update any forward-looking statements or to publicly announce the results of any revisions to any statements to reflect new information or future events or developments.

The reader should carefully consider the following risks.  In addition, keep in mind that the risks described below are not the only risks faced.  The risks described below are only the risks that we currently believe are material to our business.  However, additional risks not presently known, or risks that are currently believed to be immaterial, may also impair business operations.

THERE IS A RISK WE COULD LOSE OUR ASSET BASED FINANCING LINE WITHOUT BEING ABLE TO READILY REPLACE IT

Our business requires significant capital to finance accounts receivable and, to a lesser extent, product inventories.  In order to obtain necessary working capital, we rely primarily on a line of credit that is collateralized by substantially all of our assets.  As a result, the amount of credit available to us may be adversely affected by numerous factors beyond our control, such as delays in collection or deterioration in the quality of our accounts receivable, economic trends in the information technology industry, reduction in interest-free flooring periods provided by various manufacturers and the lending policies of our creditors.  Any decrease or material limitation on the amount of capital available to us under our line of credit and other financing arrangements, particularly our interest-free flooring, may limit our ability to fill existing sales orders or expand our sales levels and, therefore, may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial position, results of operations and cash flows.  We are dependent on the availability of accounts receivable financing on reasonable terms and at levels that are high relative to our equity base in order to maintain and increase our sales.

10

Our financing agreement contains various liquidity debt covenants that must be met each quarter.  There can be no assurance that we will continue to meet those debt covenants and failure to do so would place us under default and could cause us to lose our financing.  There can be no assurance that such financing will continue to be available to us in the future on acceptable terms, as there are a very limited number of asset-based lenders that service our industry.  Our inability to have continuous access to such financing at reasonable costs could materially adversely impact our business, financial position, results of operations and cash flows.  See ‘‘Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Liquidity and Capital Resources.’’

THERE IS RISK THAT WE COULD LOSE A LARGE CUSTOMER WITHOUT BEING ABLE TO FIND A READY REPLACEMENT

For fiscal years 2007, 2006 and 2005, no one customer accounted for 10% or more of our total net sales.  However, our sales do tend to be concentrated in a relatively few accounts with our top five customers in fiscal years 2007, 2006 and 2005 accounting for an aggregate of 38.9%, 27.1% and 31.9%, respectively, of total net sales and our top twenty-five customers representing an aggregate of 63.8%, 59.7% and 63.4%, respectively, of total net sales.

For fiscal years 2007, 2006 and 2005, no one customer accounted for 10% or more of our total product or service sales, however, seven large customers accounted for an aggregate of 47.5%, 57.1% and 50.5%, respectively, of total service sales.  Our contracts for the provision of products or services are generally non-exclusive agreements that are terminable by either party upon 30 days’ notice.  Either the loss of any large customer, or the failure of any large customer to pay its accounts receivable on a timely basis, or a material reduction in the amount of purchases made by any large customer could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

OUR ACQUISITION OF A SUBSTANTIAL INTEREST IN A PAKISTANI CORPORATION EXPOSES US TO FOREIGN OPERATIONAL RISKS

With our acquisition of a majority interest in Ovex, a Pakistani corporation, we are exposed to adverse fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, limitations on asset transfers, changes in foreign regulations and political turmoil, any or all of which could adversely affect our operating results.  In addition, we have relocated many of our “back-office” functions to Ovex including, among others, customer support, purchasing, credit and collections, accounts payable, accounting and other administrative and support functions.  We established both voice and data communications between our corporate headquarters in El Segundo, California and Pakistan.  However, there can be no assurance that these lines of communication will not be interrupted.  Should we have interruptions with our communications to Pakistan, any such interruption could have a material adverse impact on our business, financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

OUR LOW MARGINS EXPOSE US TO RISKS FROM MINOR ADVERSITIES

Our overall gross profit percentages for the past three fiscal years 2007, 2006 and 2005 were 12.5%, 12.2%, and 10.7%, respectively, with gross margin from product sales in such fiscal years being 8.4%, 8.3% and 7.5%, respectively.  Our gross profit margins on product and software sales are low compared to many other resellers of information technology products and have continued to remain low.  Given the significant levels of competition that characterize the reseller market, as well as the lower gross profit margins that we generate as a result of our reliance on purchasing information technology products from our suppliers, it is unlikely that we will be able to increase product gross profit margins appreciably in our core business of reselling information technology products.  Moreover, in order to attract and retain many of our larger customers, we frequently must agree to pricing and maximum allowable mark-downs that serve to limit the profitability of product sales to such customers.  Accordingly, to the extent that our sales to such customers increase, our gross profit margins may be reduced, and therefore any future increases in net income will have to be derived from net sales growth, effective expansion into higher margin business segments or a reduction in operating expenses as a percentage of net sales, none of which can be assured.  Furthermore, low gross profit margins increase the sensitivity of our business to increases in costs of financing, because financing costs to carry a receivable can be relatively high compared to the low dollar amount of gross profit on the sale underlying the receivable itself.  Low gross profit margins also increase the sensitivity of the business to any increase in product returns and bad debt write-offs, as the impact resulting from the inability to collect the full amount for products sold will be relatively high compared to the low amount of gross profit on the sale of such product.  Any failure by us to maintain our gross profit margins and sales levels could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

COSTS AND OTHER FACTORS ASSOCIATED WITH PENDING OR FUTURE LITIGATION COULD MATERIALLY HARM OUR BUSINESS, RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION.

11

We at times receive claims and become subject to litigation, including claims related to customers, stockholders, acquisitions, employment, intellectual property, trade secrets and other commercial litigation related to the conduct of our business. Additionally, we may at times institute legal proceedings against third parties to protect our interests. Any litigation in which we are a named party could be costly and time consuming and could divert our management and key personnel from our business operations. In connection with any such litigation, we may be subject to significant damages or equitable remedies relating to the operation of our business. We cannot determine with any certainty the costs or outcome of pending or future litigation. Any such litigation may materially harm our business, results of operations and financial condition.

THERE ARE RISKS IN CONDUCTING OUR DAILY BUSINESS PLANS AND STRATEGY

For our first five full fiscal years since inception, we experienced rapid growth in net sales, employees and branch offices leading to peak net sales of $668.3 million in fiscal year 1999 from a base of $110.0 million in fiscal year 1994.  Since fiscal year 1999 we have experienced a contraction in net sales reaching a low in net sales of $257.0 million in fiscal year 2002, or a compounded annual decline rate of 27% for the three year period.  Since 2002, we have seen a gradual increase in net sales to the $347.1 million reached in fiscal year 2007, which is a compounded annual growth rate of 3.7% over such five-year period.

The effort to increase net sales or to supplement the loss of net sales with higher margin products or services has and will continue to challenge our management, operational and financial resources.  To execute our growth strategy, we expect to require the addition of new management personnel, including sales and technical services personnel, and the development of additional expertise by existing personnel.  Our ability to manage effectively will require us to continue to implement and improve our operational, financial and sales systems at both the national and local level, to develop the skills of our managers and supervisors and to hire, train, motivate, retain and effectively manage our employees.  There can be no assurance that we will be successful in such an effort, and the failure to do so could materially adversely affect our business, financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

WITH OUR FAST CHANGING INDUSTRY EVOLUTION WE RISK BEING OUTMODED OR EXCLUDED FROM THE DISTRIBUTION CHANNEL

The personal computer industry is undergoing significant change.  In addition, a number of alternative cost-effective channels of distribution have developed in the industry, such as the Internet, computer superstores, consumer electronic and office supply superstores, national direct marketers and mass merchants.  Computer resellers are consolidating operations and acquiring or merging with other resellers and/or direct marketers to achieve economies of scale and increased efficiency.  The current industry reconfiguration and the trend towards consolidation could cause the industry to become even more competitive, further increase pricing pressures and make it more difficult for us to maintain our operating margins or to increase or maintain the same level of net sales or gross profit.  Declining prices, resulting in part from technological changes, may require us to sell a greater number of products to achieve the same level of net sales and gross profit.  Such a trend could make it more difficult for us to continue to increase our net sales and earnings growth.  In addition, growth in the personal computer market has slowed.  If the growth rate of the personal computer market were to further decrease, our business, financial condition and operating results could be adversely affected.

The segment of the information technology industry in which we operate is highly competitive.  We compete with a large number and wide variety of resellers and providers of information technology products and services, including:

• traditional personal computer retailers,

• computer superstores,

• consumer electronics and office supply superstores,

• mass merchandisers,

• corporate resellers,

• value-added resellers,

• specialty retailers,

• distributors,

• franchisers,

• mail-order and web-order companies,

• national computer retailers,

• service-only providers, and

• manufacturers that have their own direct marketing operations to end-users.

12

Many of these companies compete principally on the basis of price and may have lower costs than us, which allow them to offer the same products and services at lower prices.  Many of our competitors are larger, have substantially greater financial, technical, marketing and other resources and offer a broader range of value-added services than we do.  We compete with, among others, CompuCom Systems, Inc., Dell, Gateway, Pomeroy IT Solutions, Inc., CDW Corporation, IBM, HP, Insight Enterprises, Inc., PC Mall, Inc., GTSI Corp., Zones, Inc., PC Connection, Inc., and certain distributors.  We expect to face additional competition from new market entrants in the future.

Competitive factors include price, service and support, the variety of products and value-added services offered, and marketing and sales capabilities.  While we believe that we compete successfully with respect to most, if not all of these factors, there can be no assurance that we will continue to do so in the future.  The information technology industry has come to be characterized by aggressive price-cutting and we expect pricing pressures will continue in the foreseeable future.  In addition, the information technology products industry is characterized by abrupt changes in technology and associated inventory and product obsolescence, rapid changes in consumer preferences, short product life cycles and evolving industry standards.  We will need to continue to provide competitive prices, superior product selection and quick delivery response time in addition to developing a core competency in performing value-added services in order to remain competitive.  If we were to fail to compete favorably with respect to any of these factors, our business, financial position, results of operations and cash flows would be materially and adversely affected.  See ‘‘Business—Competition.’’

WE RISK DEPENDING ON A FEW DISTRIBUTORS AND MANUFACTURERS WHO COULD COMPETE WITH US OR LIMIT OUR ACCESS TO THEIR PRODUCT LINE

A key element of our past success and future business strategy involves the maintaining of alliances with certain key suppliers of information technology products and services, including, Tech Data, Microsoft, Ingram Micro, Synnex, and Dell.  These alliances enable us to make available to our customers a wide selection of products without subjecting us to many of the costs and risks associated with maintaining large amounts of inventory.  Products and services purchased from those five suppliers, in fiscal years 2007, 2006 and 2005 accounted for 57%, 67% and 76% of our aggregate purchases.  Furthermore, we compete with certain suppliers for many of the same customers.  Therefore, there can be no assurance that any such allied distributor will not use its position as a key supplier to pressure us from directly competing with them.  Substantially all of our contracts with our suppliers are terminable by either party upon 30 days notice or less and several contain minimum purchase volume requirements as a condition to providing discounts to us.  The termination or interruption of our relationships with any of the suppliers, modification of the terms or discontinuance of agreements with any of the suppliers, failure to meet minimum purchase volume requirements, or the failure to maintain a good working relationship with any significant new distributor of information technology products could materially adversely affect our business, financial position, results of operations and cash flows.  See ‘‘Business—Getting Product to the Customer.’’

Certain of the products we offer are subject to manufacturer allocations, which limit the number of units of such products available to the suppliers, which in turn may limit the number of units available to us for resale to our customers.  Because of these limitations, there can be no assurance that we will be able to offer popular new products or product enhancements to our customers in sufficient quantity or in a timely manner to meet demand.  In order to offer the products of most manufacturers, we are required to obtain authorizations from such manufacturers to act as a reseller of such products, which authorizations may be terminated at the discretion of the suppliers.  As well, certain manufacturers provide us with substantial incentives in the form of allowances, training, financing, rebates, discounts, credits and cooperative advertising, which incentives directly affect our operating income.  There can be no assurance that we will continue to receive such incentives and authorizations in the future and any reduction in these incentives could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial position, results of operations and cash flows.  There can also be no assurance that we will be able to obtain or maintain authorizations to offer products, directly or indirectly, from new or existing manufacturers. Termination of our rights to act as a reseller of the products of one or more significant manufacturers or our failure to gain sufficient access to such new products or product enhancements could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

Evolution of the distribution process in the information technology industry has put pressure on gross profit margins, and has adversely affected a number of distributors of information technology products, including certain suppliers.  There can be no assurance that the continuing evolution of the information technology industry will not further adversely affect our distributors.  Because our overall business strategy depends on our relationships with our suppliers, our business, financial position, results of operations and cash flows would be materially adversely affected in the event that distributors in general and suppliers in particular continue to suffer adverse consequences due to ongoing changes in the information technology industry.  There has been a consolidation trend in the information technology industry, including consolidation among distributors of information technology products.  Because our business model is dependent upon the availability of a number of information technology product distributors, any further consolidation would result in fewer distributors available to supply products to us, which could have a material adverse impact on our business, financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

13

WE HAVE THE RISK OF LOSING OUR SENIOR MANAGEMENT AND OTHER KEY PERSONNEL UPON WHOM WE DEPEND

We believe that our success has been and will continue to be dependent on the services and efforts of our existing senior management and other key personnel.  The loss of the services of one or more of any of our existing senior management and other key personnel would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

Our success and plans for future growth also depend on our ability to attract and retain highly skilled personnel in all areas of our business, including application development, sales and technical services.  Competition for qualified personnel in the information technology industry is intense, and although we believe that we have thus far been successful in attracting and retaining qualified personnel for our business, the inability to attract and retain qualified personnel in the future could have a material adverse effect upon our business, financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

WE RISK FAILURE TO INTEGRATE ACQUISITIONS AND/OR INVESTMENTS INTO OUR BUSINESS THAT COULD CAUSE FUTURE LOSSES

One element of our growth strategy may include continuing to expand our business through strategic acquisitions and investments in complementary businesses.  To date, we have made several such acquisitions and investments.  

However, we do not have significant acquisition or investment experience, and there can be no assurance that we will be able to successfully identify suitable acquisition or investment candidates in the future, complete acquisitions or investments, or successfully integrate acquired businesses into our operations.  Acquisitions and investments involve numerous risks, including but not limited to:

• failure to achieve anticipated operating results,

• difficulties in the assimilation of the operations, services, products, vendor agreements, and personnel of the acquired company,

• the diversion of management’s attention and other resources from other business concerns,

• entry into markets in which we have little or no prior experience, and

• the potential loss of key employees, customers, or contracts of the acquired company.

Acquisitions and investments could also conflict with restrictions in our agreements with existing or future lenders, distributors or manufacturers.  We are unable to predict whether or when any prospective acquisition or investment candidate will become available or the likelihood that any acquisition or investment will be completed or successfully integrated.  Failure to successfully manage potential acquisitions or investments in complementary businesses, or failure of any of our investments that are subject to consolidation, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

WE RISK BUSINESS INTERRUPTION FROM OUR DEPENDENCE ON CENTRALIZED OPERATIONS

We believe that our success to date has been, and future results of operations will be, dependent in large part upon our ability to provide prompt and efficient service to our customers.  As a result, a substantial disruption of our day-to-day operations could have a material adverse effect upon our business, financial position, results of operations and cash flows.  In addition, our success is largely dependent on the accuracy, quality and utilization of the information generated by our information systems, which are primarily based in El Segundo and Rancho Cucamonga, California.  Repairs, replacement, relocation or a substantial interruption in these systems or in our telephone or data communications systems, servers or power could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial position, results of operations and cash flows.  Although we have business interruption insurance, an uninsurable loss could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial position, results of operations and cash flows.  Our current use of a single configuration facility in Rancho Cucamonga, California also makes us more vulnerable to dramatic changes in freight rates than a competitor with multiple, geographically dispersed sites.  Losses in excess of insurance coverage, an uninsurable loss, or change in freight rates could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

14

WITH THE 40% CONCENTRATION OF OWNERSHIP OF OUR STOCK HELD BY A SMALL GROUP OF DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, FAMILY MEMBERS AND AN OUTSIDE PRINCIPAL STOCKHOLDER THERE ARE RISKS THAT THEY CAN EXERT SIGNIFICANT INFLUENCE OVER CORPORATE MATTERS

The directors, executive officers, family members and a significant outside stockholder of En Pointe and their affiliates beneficially own, in the aggregate, approximately 40% of our outstanding common stock as of September 30, 2007.  As a result, these stockholders acting together will be able to exert considerable influence over the election of our directors and the outcome of most corporate actions requiring stockholder approval.  Additionally, the directors and executive officers have significant influence over the policies and operations of our management and the conduct of our business.  Such concentration of ownership may have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change of control of En Pointe and consequently could affect the market price of our common stock.

THERE ARE RISKS THAT OUR QUARTERLY OPERATING RESULTS CAN VARY FROM PAST RESULTS AND BECOME VOLATILE AND UNPREDICTABLE

Our quarterly net sales and operating results may vary significantly as a result of a variety of factors, including:

• the demand for information technology products and value-added services;

• adoption of internet commerce models;

• introduction of new hardware and software technologies;

• introduction of new value-added services by us and our competitors;

• changes in manufacturers’ prices or price protection policies;

• changes in shipping rates;

• disruption of warehousing or shipping channels;

• changes in the level of operating expenses, including costs from turnover of sales personnel;

• the timing of major marketing or other service projects;

• product supply shortages;

• inventory adjustments;

• changes in product mix;

• entry into new geographic markets; 

• the timing and integration of acquisitions or investments;

• difficulty in managing margins;

• the loss of significant customer contracts; 

• the necessity to write-off a significant amount of accounts receivable or inventory; and

• general competitive and economic conditions.

In addition, a substantial portion of our net sales in each quarter results from orders booked in such quarter.  Accordingly, we believe that period-to-period comparisons of our operating results are not necessarily meaningful and should not be relied upon as an indication of future performance.

As has occurred in the past it is possible that in future periods, our operating results may be below the expectations of the public and investors.  In such event, the market price of our common stock would likely be materially adversely affected.  See ‘‘Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.’’

OUR STOCK TENDS TO BE VOLATILE WITH LARGE PERCENTAGE PRICE MOVES WHICH CAN EXPOSE INVESTORS TO UNANTICIPATED LOSSES

Factors such as the announcement of acquisitions by us or our competitors, quarter-to-quarter variations in our operating results, governmental regulatory action, general trends and market conditions in the information technology industry, as well as other factors, may have a significant impact on the market price of our common stock.  Moreover, trading volumes in our common stock has been low historically and could exacerbate price fluctuations in the common stock.  Further, the stock market has recently and in other periods experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations, which have particularly affected the market prices of the equity securities of many companies and which have often been unrelated to the operating performance of such companies.  These broad market fluctuations may materially and adversely affect the market price of our common stock.  See ‘‘Market for Registrant’s Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities.’’

15

IF OUR INTERNAL CONTROLS PROVE TO BE INEFFECTIVE THAT COULD NEGATIVELY IMPACT INVESTORS’ CONFIDENCE IN OUR COMPANY AND CAUSE OUR STOCK PRICE TO DROP

Changing laws, regulations and standards relating to corporate governance and public disclosure, including the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and related regulations implemented by the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, and The Nasdaq Stock Market, or the Nasdaq, are creating uncertainty for public companies, increasing legal and financial compliance costs and making some activities more time consuming.  We are undergoing an evaluation of our internal controls systems to allow management to report on, and our independent auditors to attest to, our internal controls.  We are also in the process of performing the system and process evaluation and testing (and any necessary remediation) required to comply with the management certification and auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.  As a result, we expect to incur substantial additional expenses and diversion of management’s time.  While we anticipate being able to fully implement the requirements relating to internal controls and all other aspects of Section 404 by the extended September 30, 2008 deadline, we cannot be certain as to the timing of completion of our evaluation, testing and remediation actions or the impact of the same on our operations since there is presently no precedent available by which to measure compliance adequacy.  If we are not able to implement the requirements of Section 404 in a timely manner or with adequate compliance, we may not be able to accurately report our financial results or prevent fraud and might be subject to sanctions or investigation by regulatory authorities, such as the SEC or the Nasdaq.  Any such action could harm our business or investors’ confidence in our company, and could cause our stock price to fall.

IF PREFERRED STOCK IS ISSUED AS AN ANTI-TAKEOVER MEASURE, THERE IS A RISK THAT THE PRICE OF OUR COMMON STOCK COULD BE ADVERSELY AFFECTED

Our Board of Directors has the authority to issue up to 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock and to determine the price, rights, preferences, qualifications, limitations and restrictions, including voting rights, of those shares without any further vote or action by the stockholders.  The rights of the holders of common stock will be subject to, and may be adversely affected by, the rights of the holders of any preferred stock that may be issued in the future.  The issuance of preferred stock, while providing desirable flexibility in connection with possible acquisitions and other corporate purposes, could have the effect of delaying or preventing a third party from acquiring a majority of our outstanding voting stock.  Further, Section 203 of the General Corporation Law of Delaware prohibits us from engaging in certain business combinations with interested stockholders.  These provisions may have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control of En Pointe without action by our stockholders, and therefore could adversely affect the market price of our common stock.

THERE ARE RISKS OUTSIDE OF OUR CONTROL OF UNFAVORABLE ECONOMIC CONDITIONS THAT COULD NEGATIVELY IMPACT OUR REVENUES AND PROFITS

Revenue growth depends on the overall demand for information technology spending.  While economy in the United States appears to be stable, there can be no assurance that stability will continue.  Any downturn in the United States’ economy may result in cutbacks by customers in the purchase of information technology products and services, postponed or canceled orders, longer sales cycles and lower average selling prices.  To the extent that a downturn occurs, we believe demand for our products and services, and therefore future revenues, could be further adversely impacted.

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES

During June 2006, we moved from our former headquarters at 100 N. Sepulveda Boulevard in El Segundo, California, where we leased approximately 24,000 square feet of office space to 2381 Rosecrans Avenue in El Segundo, California where we are subleasing approximately 13,000 square feet of office space.  The sublease is for approximately two and a half years, ending on January 31, 2009.  On October 29, 2007, we entered into a seven year lease agreement for 29,032 square feet of office space in Carson, California that was effective November 1, 2007 and relocated our headquarters there in December 2007.  We are seeking to sublease the office space at 2381 Rosecrans Avenue to a third party for the balance of the term.

During October 2006, we also moved from our 126,000 square foot leased facility in Ontario, California, which was used for configuration, maintenance services, and storage for customer products to a 95,090 square foot subleased facility in Rancho Cucamonga, California.  The sublease is for approximately two and a half years, ending on February 15, 2009.

• Walpole, Massachusetts

Our VIE affiliate, PBPO, leases approximately 3,000 square feet for its main offices in Clarksville, Tennessee while the PBPOChina subsidiary that performs the China BPO services segment of our business in Tianjin leases 11,250 square feet of office space.  Ovex, our 70% owned subsidiary that performs the Pakistan BPO services segment of our business, leases office space in Lahore, Islamabad and Karachi, Pakistan, the square footage leased being 32,200, 24,780 and 3,969 respectively.

Management believes our headquarters, sales offices, configuration facility, and those offices of our affiliates are adequate to support our current level of operations.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

In July 2006, Church Gardens, LLC, the current owner of our former leased configuration facility in Ontario, California, filed suit against us in San Bernardino County Superior Court, Case No. RCV096518. The complaint centers on certain furniture, fixtures, equipment and leasehold improvements that were sold to, and leased back from us, by plaintiff’s predecessor in 1999 when we still occupied our former leased configuration facility in Ontario, California. The plaintiff alleges, among other things, that a portion of the leased-back property was sold, destroyed, altered, or removed from the premises, and demands both an inspection and an accounting of the property remaining and for the court to provide damages to the extent that we may have breached our contract. We dispute the allegations and believe that any property loss liability under the lease provisions would be limited to the $75,000 that we have already accrued on our financial statements.

In February 2007, we filed a cross-complaint against Church Gardens LLC. The cross-complaint asks that our $90,720 security deposit be returned with interest. In addition, we claim that Church Gardens LLC engaged in unfair business practices in retaining the security deposit and in not allowing the removal of certain personal property that we owned and that Church Gardens LLC engaged in unlawful conversion of certain property belonging to us. We also ask the court to grant declaratory relief as to our actions in our attempts to preserve the disputed property pending a judicial determination of rights. We also seek recovery of possession of our personal property and injunctive relief preventing the plaintiff from liquidating our property.

In January 2007, US Real Estate Consortium, the predecessor owner of our former leased configuration facility in Ontario, California filed suit against the current owner, Church Gardens LLC, in San Bernardino County Superior Court, Case No. RCV100476.

In March 2007, the current owner, Church Gardens LLC, filed a cross-complaint against us and the former owner, US Real Estate Consortium, among others.  On May 31, 2007, we answered and cross-claimed against the current owner, Church Gardens, LLC. On July 25, 2007, Church Gardens, LLC filed its answer to the first amended cross-complaint filed by us.  Both cases (RCV096518 and RCV100476) have now been consolidated for all purposes. 

Although the first case (RCV096518) was originally filed in July 2006, no trial date in the now consolidated case has been set. There has been substantial discovery, and substantial law and motion practice to date. We are contesting the consolidated case vigorously, and intend to continue doing so.

There are various other claims and litigation proceedings in which we are involved in the ordinary course of business.  We accrue for costs related to contingencies when a loss is probable and the amount is reasonably determinable.  While the outcome of the foregoing and other claims and proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, after consulting with legal counsel, management does not believe that it is reasonably possible that any ongoing or pending litigation will result in an unfavorable outcome to us or have a material adverse affect on our business, financial position and results of operations or cash flows.

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

For an understanding of the significant factors that influenced our performance during the past three fiscal years, this financial discussion should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and the Notes thereto presented in this Form 10-K.

EXECUTIVE OVERVIEW

We began operations in March of 1993 as a reseller of information technology products.  In fiscal year 1999, value-added services were added to our customer offerings.  Value-added services represented 13.8%, 14.5% and 14.9% of our net sales in fiscal years 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively.  The gross profit margins on the value-added services that we currently offer are significantly higher than the gross profit margins on our information technology product business, but require additional overhead expense for supervision, idle time, and other expenses related to service offerings that offset a portion of the increased margin.  In October 2003, we made an initial investment in PBPO, a start up company in Tennessee that sells BPO services that carry higher gross profit margins, similar to those found in our value-added services.  Then, in October 2006 we broadened our BPO capability by acquiring a 70% interest in Ovex, a private company in Pakistan that had significant experience and success in providing BPO services for our internal operations as well as for PBPO's customers.

In our initial operating years from fiscal 1994 to fiscal 1999, with the aid of a robust economy and an information technology market that accommodated our business model, our net sales increased at a compounded annual growth rate of 35.1%.  Seasonal trends were never prominent in our business, although March quarters were historically regarded as one of the least promising quarters.

In fiscal 2000 we experienced our first annual net sales decline of 26%, or $173.8 million, from net sales in fiscal 1999 due to a softer information technology market and difficulties in transitioning to a new enterprise resource planning business system.  Net sales continued to decline in subsequent fiscal years reaching a low of $257.0 million in fiscal year 2002, or a compounded annual decline rate of 27% for the three years.  The last five years have seen a compounded annual growth rate of 3.7% in net sales from $289.8 million in fiscal year 2003 to the present $347.1 million in fiscal year 2007.

Net sales increased $23.4 million, or 7.2%, and gross profits increased $3.9 million, or 9.8%, in fiscal year 2007 from fiscal year 2006, driven principally by increased product sales.  Operating expenses, consisting mainly of selling and marketing expenses, increased a total of $3.0 million over fiscal year 2006 results, leaving operating income of $1.1 million in fiscal year 2007, an improvement of $0.9 million over the $0.2 million reported in fiscal year 2006.

Because our business model involves the resale of information technology products held in inventory by certain distributors, we do not maintain significant amounts of inventory on hand for resale.  We typically do not place an order for product purchases from distributors until we have received a customer purchase order.  Inventory is then drop-shipped by the distributor to either the customer or shipped to our configuration center in Rancho Cucamonga, California.  The distributor typically ships products within 24 hours following receipt of a purchase order and, consequently, substantially all of our product net sales in any quarter result from orders received in that quarter.  Although we maintain a relatively small amount of inventory in stock for resale, most of our inventory represents either merchandise being configured for customers’ orders or products purchased from distributors and shipped, but not yet received and accepted by our customers.

Product revenues are generally recognized upon delivery to the customer.  Service revenues are recognized based on contractual hourly rates as services are rendered or upon completion of specified contract services.  Net sales consist of product and service revenues, less discounts.  Cost of sales includes product and service costs and current and estimated allowances for returns of products that are not accepted by our distributors or manufacturers, less any incentive credits.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations require us to make judgments, assumptions, and estimates that affect the amounts reported in our consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes.  Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of this Form 10-K describes the significant accounting policies and methods used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements.  We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities.  We regularly discuss with our audit committee the basis of our estimates.  Actual results may differ from these estimates and such differences may be material.

21

We believe the following critical accounting policies, among others, affect our more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements:

Revenue recognition. Our net sales consist primarily of revenue from the sale of hardware, software, peripherals, and service and support contracts.  We apply the provisions of the SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) No. 104, “Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements,” which provides guidance on the recognition, presentation and disclosure of revenue in financial statements filed with the SEC.  SAB No. 104 outlines the basic criteria that must be met to recognize revenue and provides guidance for disclosure related to revenue recognition policies.  In general, we recognize revenue when (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (ii) delivery of products has occurred or services have been rendered, (iii) the sales price charged is fixed or determinable and (iv) collection is reasonably assured.

Under our standard shipping terms, title passes upon delivery to a common carrier but revenue is not recognized until delivery takes place which is generally two to three days later.  Product is therefore considered received and accepted by the customer only upon the customer’s receipt of the product from the carrier.  Any undelivered product is included in our inventory.

The majority of our sales relate to physical products and are recognized on a gross basis with the selling price to the customer recorded as net sales and the acquisition cost of the product recorded as cost of sales.  However, software maintenance contracts, software agency fees, and extended warranties that we sell in which we are not the primary obligor, are recorded on a net basis in accordance with SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104 “Revenue Recognition” and Emerging Issues Task Force 99-19, “Reporting Revenue Gross as a Principal versus Net as an Agent.” Such net revenues are recognized in full at the time of sale.

We have adopted the provisions of Statement of Position No. 97-2, “Software Revenue Recognition” (SOP 97-2) as amended by SOP No. 98-9, “Modification of SOP 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition with Respect to Certain Transactions” (SOP 98-9) in recognizing revenue from software transactions.  Revenue from software license sales is recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery of the product has been made, and a fixed fee and collectibility has been determined.

Service revenues are recognized based on contracted hourly rates, as services are rendered or upon completion of specified contracted services and acceptance by the customer.  Revenue from customer maintenance support agreements, in which we are not the primary obligor, is reported on a net basis and recognized at the time of the sale. Net sales consist of product and service revenues, less discounts and estimated allowances for sales returns.  Cost of sales include the cost of product and services sold and current and estimated allowances for product returns that will not be accepted by our suppliers, less rebates.

Deferred revenues result from prepaid management services and maintenance contracts.  Many of our management services are pre-billed quarterly and income is recognized as services are performed.  Our maintenance contracts are generally for services that may be performed over a one year period of time.  Income is recognized on such contracts ratably over the period of the contract.

Allowance for doubtful accounts. We estimate our allowance for doubtful accounts related to trade receivables by two methods.  First, we evaluate specific accounts over 90 days outstanding and apply various levels of risk analysis to these accounts to determine a satisfactory risk category to which given percentages are applied to establish a reserve.  Second, a general reserve is established for all other accounts, exclusive of the accounts identified for the specific reserve, in which a percentage is applied that is supportable by historic collection patterns.

Product returns.  We provide an allowance for sales returns, which is based on historical experience.  In general, we follow a strict policy of duplicating the terms of our vendor or manufacturers’ product return policies.  However, in certain cases we must deviate from this policy in order to satisfy the requirements of certain sales contracts and/or to satisfy or maintain customer relations.  To establish a reserve for returns, outstanding Return Merchandise Authorizations, or RMAs, are reviewed.  Those RMAs issued for which the related product has not been returned by the customer are considered future sale reversals and are fully reserved.  In addition, an estimate, based on historical return patterns, is provided for probable future RMAs that relate to past sales.  Generally, customers return goods to our configuration facility in Rancho Cucamonga, California, where they are processed to return to the vendor.

Vendor returns.  After product has been returned to vendors under authenticated RMAs, we review such outstanding receivables from our vendors and establish a reserve on product that will not qualify for refund based on a review of specific vendor receivables.

22

Rebates and Cooperative Marketing Incentives.  We receive incentives from suppliers related to product and volume rebates and cooperative marketing development funds.  These incentives are generally under monthly, quarterly, or annual agreements with the suppliers; however, some of these incentives are product driven or are provided to support specific programs established by the supplier.  Suppliers generally require that we use their cooperative marketing development funds exclusively for advertising or other marketing programs.  As marketing expenses are recognized, these restricted cooperative marketing development funds are recorded as a reduction of the related marketing expense with any excess funding that can not be identified with a specific vendor program reducing cost of goods sold.

As rebates are earned, we record the rebate receivables with a corresponding reduction of cost of goods sold.  Any amounts received from suppliers related to cooperative marketing development funds are deferred until earned.  Incentive programs are subject to audit as to whether the requirements of the incentives were actually met.  We establish reserves to cover any collectibility risks including subsequent supplier audits.

Inventory.  Although we employ a virtual inventory model that generally limits our exposure to inventory losses, with certain large customers we contractually obligate ourselves to product availability terms that require maintaining physical inventory, as well as configured product.  Such inventory is generally confined to a very limited range of product that applies to specific customers or contracts.  Included in our inventory is product that has been returned by customers but is not acceptable as returnable by the vendor.  As a result, we expose ourselves to losses from such inventory that requires reserves for losses to be established.  We record varying reserves based upon the class of inventory (i.e. held for resale or returned from customers) and age of inventory.

COMPARISON OF FISCAL YEARS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2007 AND 2006

NET SALES.   Net sales increased $23.4 million, or 7.2%, to $347.1 million in fiscal year 2007 from $323.7 million in fiscal year 2006.  Our affiliate, PBPO, and subsidiary, Ovex, contributed $3.2 million and $0.9 million, respectively, of the total net sales increase with the remaining $19.3 million increase coming from our core operations of sales and service of information technology products.  While no one customer accounted for 10% or more of total net sales in fiscal years 2007 or 2006, the core operation increase in sales resulted, in fact, from large volume customers who purchased increased amounts of our products and services.   For example, net sales to our top five customers accounted for 39.6% of total net sales in fiscal year 2007.  Net sales to these top five customers increased $53.1 million, or 15.6%, in fiscal year 2007 over the total net sales to these same five customers in the prior fiscal year.

23

Product net sales in fiscal year 2007 increased $22.6 million, or 8.2%, over fiscal year 2006 and were responsible for most of the increase in the total net sales for the year.  Top selling products were software, desktop computers and laptops, respectively, for both fiscal years 2007 and 2006 with software sales being the leading component of the sales mix.  Software agency commissions, a part of product sales, increased for the third consecutive year in fiscal year 2007, to $7.0 million, an increase of $1.5 million, or 21.0% over fiscal 2006 commissions.

Service net sales in fiscal year 2007 increased a marginal $0.8 million, or 1.7% over fiscal year 2006.  Service net sales from our affiliate, PBPO, and our subsidiary, Ovex, that promotes and performs business process outsourcing services, increased $4.1 million to an aggregate of $6.7 million for fiscal year 2007 and were responsible for all of the increase in our service net sales for fiscal year 2007.  Core service net sales in fiscal year 2007, which relate to the service of information technology products and exclude the contributions of PBPO and Ovex, decreased $3.3 million to $41.1 million from $44.4 million in fiscal year 2006.  The decline in core service net sales in fiscal year 2007 was in large part from the conclusion of a substantial municipal services work project that was principally completed in fiscal year 2006 as well as from a decrease of services to a major customer that has been adversely affected by the general slow down in the mortgage industry.

GROSS PROFIT.  Gross profits increased $3.9 million, or 9.8%, to $43.6 million in fiscal year 2007 from $39.7 million for fiscal year 2006.  The bulk of the increase in gross profits, $2.2 million, was from product gross profits, with the remainder $1.7 million attributable to services.  Our affiliate, PBPO, and subsidiary, Ovex, contributed approximately one-third of the gross profits increase, or $1.3 million, on aggregate base sales of $2.1 million for fiscal year 2007.  Overall gross margins improved to 12.5% in fiscal year 2007 from 12.2% in the prior fiscal year.

Product gross profits increased $2.2 million in fiscal year 2007 to $25.2 million from $23.0 million in the prior fiscal year principally from increased sales volume.  Product gross margin percentages improved marginally to 8.4% in fiscal year 2007 from 8.3% in fiscal year 2006.  The slight improvement in margins was attributable to the increase in agency commission fees that bear no associated costs.  Excluding the agency commissions, product gross margins fell to 6.1% in fiscal year 2007 from 6.3% in the prior fiscal year.

Service gross profits increased $1.7 million in fiscal year 2007 to $18.3 million from $16.6 million in the prior fiscal year.  Most of the increase, $1.1 million, was attributable to an increase in service gross profits from our affiliate, PBPO, which operates on an approximate 35% service gross margin.  Our core service gross profits, which relates to the service of information technology products and excludes the contributions of PBPO and Ovex, increased marginally $0.4 million in fiscal year 2007 to $16.2 million from $15.8 million in the prior fiscal year.  Related core service gross margins increased 3.8% to 39.4% from 35.6%.

While core service net sales were down, core service gross profits and margins were up.  Most of the service gross margin improvement can be traced to a major municipal service project that was largely completed in fiscal year 2006 and whose revenues of $4.2 million and service gross margins of 11% adversely impacted fiscal 2006 results causing a 3% drop in overall gross margins for that year.

SELLING AND MARKETING EXPENSES.  Selling and marketing expenses increased $2.2 million, or 7.9%, to $30.5 million in fiscal year 2007, from $28.3 million in fiscal year 2006.  The $2.2 million increase in selling and marketing expenses in fiscal year 2007 was attributable principally to a $1.9 million increase in wages from the hiring of an additional 48 employees, including 40 for the call center in the U.S. and 8 for the recently formed cabling division, and $0.2 million in increased overtime pay.  The remaining $0.1 increase in selling and marketing expenses relates to increases in expenses for our affiliate, PBPO, and subsidiary, Ovex.  Selling and marketing expenses expressed as a percentage of net sales, were flat at 8.8% for fiscal years 2007 and 2006.

GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES.  General and administrative expenses, or G&A, increased $0.8 million, or 7.0%, to $11.9 million in fiscal year 2007 from $11.1 in fiscal year 2006.  All of the increase was attributed to our affiliate, PBPO, and subsidiary, Ovex, with G&A expense for PBPO and Ovex increasing $0.4 million and $0.6 million respectively.  The Ovex increase was due to our acquisition of Ovex stock and Ovex’s merger in fiscal year 2007 with no comparable expense in prior fiscal years.  The majority of the increase for PBPO relates to increases in salary as well as increases in travel and entertainment related costs.  As with selling and marketing expenses, when G&A expenses are expressed as a percentage of net sales, the results are flat at 3.4% for fiscal years 2007 and 2006.

OPERATING INCOME.  Operating income increased $0.9 million in fiscal year 2007 to $1.1 million as compared with $0.2 million in the prior fiscal year.  The increase of $0.9 million in operating income can be attributed to the increase in gross profit of $3.9 million less the $3.0 million increase in operating expenses during fiscal year 2007 as discussed above.

24

INTEREST INCOME, NET. 

Interest income is net of interest expense and consisted of the following components for the last two fiscal years (in thousands):

	Year Ended September 30,
	2007			2006
Interest income	$	615		$	263
Interest expense		(318	)		(82	)
Net interest income	$	297		$	181

Net interest income increased $0.1 million in fiscal year 2007 to $0.3 million from $0.2 million in fiscal year 2006.  Interest income in both fiscal years resulted from our short term cash investments.   Interest expense increased $0.2 million in fiscal year 2007 to $0.3 million from $0.1 million in fiscal year 2006.  The increase was principally from the acquisition of Ovex in fiscal year 2007 and the related interest expense that was not present in the prior fiscal year.  The Ovex interest expense includes $0.1 million related to short-term borrowings under an export finance program.  In addition, consolidated interest expense includes approximately $0.1 million related to capitalized leases.  The interest expense in fiscal years 2007 and 2006 from our lending facility with GE Commercial Distribution Finance Corporation was approximately $11,000 and $14,000 respectively, which is customarily low due to our interest-free borrowing periods allowed under the financing.

OTHER INCOME.  Other income increased a marginal $43,000 in fiscal year 2007 as compared with fiscal year 2006 but was not a significant factor for either fiscal year.

INCOME TAX (BENEFIT) PROVISION.  A $203,000 tax benefit was provided for fiscal year 2007, which arose principally from a $400,000 decrease to our valuation allowance for deferred tax benefits related to net operating loss tax benefits.  The decrease of $400,000 represented our estimate of the federal and state taxes at a combined rate of 40% that would be incurred in future periods and for which the tax benefit of the deferred net operating loss deduction would be available.  Only $263,000 of the $400,000 decrease was available for the reduction of deferred taxes since the balance, $137,000, relates to net operating losses arising from stock options and are considered an adjustment of equity.  As a result of the use of the deferred net operating loss of $263,000, future provisions for taxes, for financial statement purposes, will not benefit from the net operating loss deduction and will be computed at the full statutory rates.

We file a consolidated federal income tax return, while for many of our state tax returns we file separately under the name of our wholly-owned sales subsidiary, En Pointe Technologies Sales, Inc., that is qualified to do business in all fifty states.  Our consolidated return excludes both PBPO and Ovex because in the case of PBPO, our investment is less than the required 80% to consolidate under  federal tax law.  In the case of Ovex, we are not taxed on foreign income until it is distributed.

As of September 30, 2007 we had $5.3 million of  federal NOL carry-forwards, which at 35% federal tax rates would reduce future federal taxes by $1.9 million.  In addition, there are $0.1 million of alternative minimum tax credits carry-forwards that bring the total future benefit to $2.0 million, of which $0.4 million was recognized in fiscal year 2007.  The NOL carry-forwards are scheduled to expire at various dates through fiscal year 2023.  Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code could limit the future use of some or all of the NOL carry-forwards if the ownership of our common stock changes by more than 50 percentage points in certain circumstances over a three year testing period.  

MINORITY INTEREST.  Under FIN 46 and other recent changes in consolidation principles, certain minority interests are required to be consolidated.  We own an approximate 30% voting interest in PBPO and under FIN 46 are required to consolidate PBPO’s financial results in our financial statements.  As a result, we allocate certain losses to the other stockholders of PBPO who collectively own approximately 70% of PBPO. Losses so allocated to the “minority interest” are not based upon the percentage of ownership, but upon the “at risk” capital of those owners.  Once the “minority interest at risk” capital has been absorbed by losses, all remaining losses are allocated to us, without regard for the amount of capital that we hold “at risk”.

25

Ovex, on the other hand, was acquired in fiscal year 2007 and we own a majority 70% interest in that company.  Thus, we allocate 30% of the net income of Ovex to its minority shareholders.  The allocations to the minority interest (in thousands) for the last two fiscal years was as follows:

	Year Ended September 30,
	2007			2006
Ovex profit		(186	)		--
PBPO loss	$	118		$	121
(Profit)/loss allocations	$	(68	)	$	121

NET INCOME.  Net income increased $1.1 million to $1.6 million in fiscal year 2007 from $0.5 million in fiscal year 2006.  The principal reasons for the $1.1 million increase in net income was from the $0.9 million increase in operating income and the $0.2 million decrease in income taxes.

COMPARISON OF FISCAL YEARS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2006 AND 2005

NET SALES.  Net sales decreased $4.6 million, or 1.4%, to $323.7 million in fiscal year 2006 from $328.3 million in fiscal year 2005.  Moderating the net sales decrease was the business of Software Medium, Inc., that we acquired in January 2006 and that contributed $3.9 million in net sales for fiscal year 2006 and PBPO, our variable interest entity affiliate, whose sales increased $1.7 million.  No one customer accounted for 10% or more of total net sales in fiscal year 2006 or 2005.  However, sales do tend to be concentrated in a relatively few accounts as evidenced in fiscal years 2006 and 2005 when our top five customers made up 27.1% and 31.9%, respectively, of total net sales and our top twenty-five customers contributed 59.7% and 63.4%, respectively, of total net sales.

On a quarterly seasonal basis, our June quarter, helped by software agency commissions of $1.1 million, was the strongest net sales quarter of the fiscal year for the third consecutive year with the June 2006 fiscal quarter coming in at $95.6 million compared with $92.6 million in prior fiscal year period.  On the other hand, the March quarter of fiscal 2006 continued to be the weakest net sales quarter of the fiscal year for the third consecutive year.

Product sales in fiscal year 2006 decreased $2.6 million, or 0.9%, to $276.7 million from $279.3 million reported in fiscal year 2005, reflecting a decline in overall net sales from a few of our major customers.  Service revenues in fiscal year 2006 decreased year-over-year $2.0 million, a lesser decline than reported in product sales, but at a higher rate of 4.1%, to $47.0 million from the $49.0 million reported in the prior fiscal year.

GROSS PROFIT.  Gross profits increased $4.6 million, or 13.1%, to $39.7 million in fiscal year 2006 from $35.1 million for fiscal year 2005. Services contributed $2.5 million of the gross profits increase, with products responsible for remaining $2.1 million.  With declining net sales, the increase in gross profits came solely from improvements in gross margin percentages which improved for both product and services to a combined 12.2% from 10.7% in fiscal year 2005.  Product gross margin percentages improved by 0.9% to 8.3% in fiscal year 2006 while service improved by 6.4% to 35.5%.

Most of the $2.1 million increase in product gross profits came from agency commission fees of $1.8 million which in turn originated primarily from increased Microsoft software commission fees.  The service gross profits increase of $2.5 million was from a combination of factors, however. PBPO, our consolidated affiliate, contributed $0.8 million of the increase in service gross profits for fiscal year 2006 over fiscal year 2005.  Two large logistic and asset management customers contributed the majority of the remaining $1.7 million increase in service gross profits.  These were high volume projects in which processing costs were successfully contained.  Other factors explaining the increase include the reaching of certain contractual milestones with our municipal service contracts that allowed us to recognize higher service margins as well as our acquisition in January 2006 of a security services business that traditionally earns above average gross profit margins.

SELLING AND MARKETING EXPENSES.  Selling and marketing expenses increased $2.5 million, or 9.9%, to $28.3 million in fiscal year 2006, from $25.8 million in fiscal year 2005.  The $2.5 million increase is inclusive of a decrease in PBPO’s selling and marketing expenses of $0.3 million.  Excluding the decrease in PBPO’s selling and marketing expense, our core selling and marketing expenses increased by $2.8 million.  The increase in selling and marketing expenses in fiscal year 2006 resulted primarily from $2.7 million of wage related expenses consisting of $1.4 million in commissions, mainly from increased software sales and draws, $0.9 million in wages, and $0.4 million in employee benefits and reimbursements.

26

We also experienced a $0.8 million increase in our business process outsourcing expenses from increased use of employees offshore and from costs related to software programming in India.

However, those costs were largely offset by $0.9 million from increased co-op funds and from a favorable settlement of disputed balances with creditors. When selling and marketing expenses are expressed as a percentage of net sales, there was an increase of 0.9% to 8.8% in fiscal year 2006 from 7.9% in fiscal year 2005.

GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES.  General and administrative expenses, or G&A, increased $1.0 million, or 9.4%, to $11.1 million in fiscal year 2006 from $10.1 in fiscal year 2005.  The increase in G&A was principally the result of higher legal expenses of $0.7 million due to the three legal suits that we defended and to $0.3 million in the settlement of the First Union securities matter dating back to 2000.

When G&A expenses are expressed as a percentage of net sales, there was an increase of 0.3% to 3.4% in fiscal year 2006 from 3.1% in fiscal year 2005.

OPERATING INCOME (LOSS).  Operating income of $0.2 million was realized in fiscal year 2006 compared with $0.9 million of operating loss in the prior fiscal year.  The increase of $1.1 million in operating income can be attributed to the increase in gross profit of $4.6 million less the $3.5 million increase in operating expenses during fiscal year 2006 as discussed above.

INTEREST (INCOME) EXPENSE, NET.  Interest income of $0.2 million in fiscal year 2006 is net of interest expense of $0.1 million.  Interest income resulted from our short term cash investments while most of interest expense in fiscal year 2006 was related to capitalized leases for computer equipment acquired.  The interest expense in fiscal year 2006 from our lending facility with GE Commercial Distribution Finance Corporation was approximately $14,000 which is customarily low or non-existent due to our interest-free borrowing periods allowed under the financing.

Net interest income increased $0.2 million in fiscal year 2006 compared with the prior fiscal year.  Most of the increase can be attributed to the inclusion in fiscal year 2005 of $0.2 million of interest expense related to the Ontario configuration facility that was not present in the fiscal year 2006 due to the Ontario lease converting from a financing lease to an operating lease in which rentexpense replaces interest expense as a major expense item.

OTHER INCOME.  Other income decreased $0.6 million in fiscal year 2006 from that of fiscal year 2005.  The decrease in other income was due to the inclusion in fiscal year 2005 of insurance recovery from prior year losses and rental income which did not repeat in fiscal year 2006.

PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES.  We provided a $42,000 tax provision for fiscal year 2006, an increase of $21,000 from that provided in the prior fiscal year.  While we are not subject to the regular 34% corporate federal income tax rates because of the tax benefit derived from our past net operating losses, or NOLs, that can be carried forward, we are nevertheless subject to the federal alternative minimum tax.  The alternative minimum tax limits NOL carryforwards that can be applied in any one year to 90% of the current year’s taxable income and imposes a 20% tax on the remaining 10% of taxable income. 

We file a consolidated federal income tax return, while for many of our state tax returns we file separately under the name of our wholly-owned sales subsidiary, En Pointe Technologies Sales, Inc., that is qualified to do business in all fifty states.  Our consolidated return excludes PBPO because our investment is less than the required 80% to consolidate under federal tax law.  Thus, none of the losses generated by PBPO are available for the reduction of income taxes.

As of September 30, 2006 we had $6.9 million of NOL carry-forwards for which a 100% valuation allowance has been provided.  The NOL carry-forwards are scheduled to expire at various dates through fiscal year 2023.  Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code could limit the future use of some or all of the NOL carry-forwards if the ownership of our common stock changes by more than 50 percentage points in certain circumstances over a three year testing period.  Of the $6.9 million NOL carry-forwards, $4.7 million will be considered an adjustment to additional paid-in capital and will not benefit future earnings, since those losses were attributable to the exercise of employee stock options, which had been recognized as expense for tax purposes but not for financial statement purposes.

27

MINORITY INTEREST.  Under FIN 46 and other recent changes in consolidation principles, certain minority interests are required to be consolidated.  We own an approximate 31% voting interest in PBPO and under FIN 46 are required to consolidate PBPO’s financial results in our financial statements.  As a result, we allocate certain losses to the other stockholders of PBPO who collectively own approximately 69% of PBPO.  Losses so allocated to the “minority interest” are not based upon the percentage of ownership, but upon the “at risk” capital of those owners.  Once the “minority interest at risk” capital has been absorbed by losses, all remaining losses are allocated to us, without regard for the amount of capital that we hold “at risk”.

NET INCOME.  Net income increased $0.4 million to $0.5 million in fiscal year 2006 from $0.1 million in fiscal year 2005.  The principal reason for the $0.4 million increase in net income was from the $1.1 million increase in operating income less $0.7 million of reductions in non-operating income, principally other income and income from recognizing the minority interest in our affiliate’s loss.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Our sources of liquidity include cash and cash equivalents, cash flow from operations, and amounts available under our GE financing facility.  These sources have been adequate for day-to-day operations and for capital expenditures.  Although we can not provide any assurance, we believe that our remaining cash balances, cash flows from operations, and availability of funds under our financing facility will be sufficient to satisfy our operating requirements for the next fiscal year.

Cash flows from operating activities:

During fiscal 2007, our operating activities used cash totaling $15.3 million as compared with $5.5 million that was provided by operating activities in the prior fiscal year.  The lead contributors to the $20.8 million net decrease in cash from operating activities were increases in inventory and accounts receivable that together increased $19.5 million from fiscal year 2006.

Our accounts receivable balance, net of allowances for returns and doubtful accounts, at September 30, 2007 and 2006, was $61.4 million and $46.4 million, respectively, an increase of $15.0 million in fiscal year 2007.   The accounts receivable increase was principally from a $15.0 million sale made to the U.S. government a few days prior to the end of fiscal year 2007.  The $15.0 million sale was also responsible for the increase in the number of days’ sales outstanding in accounts receivable to 65 days from 52 days, as of September 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

Inventory, net of allowance, increased $4.6 million in fiscal year 2007 to $8.8 million from the $4.2 million reported at the end of the prior fiscal year.  The majority of the increase resulted from increases in physical inventory purchased for specific customer orders and to a lesser extent to an increase in inventory in transit at 2007 fiscal year end.

Cash flows from investing activities:

Investing activities used cash totaling $5.2 million for fiscal year 2007, an increase of $3.7 million from the prior fiscal year.  The $3.7 million increase resulted from increased acquisition costs of $0.8 million, increased purchases of property and equipment of $1.9 million, and a $1.0 million short-term cash investment. 

Cash flows from financing activities:

Financing activities provided net cash totaling $16.2 million in fiscal 2007, $16.9 million more than the $0.7 million of net cash that was used in fiscal 2006.  Most of the $16.2 million increase in cash provided in fiscal 2007 was from an increase of $15.8 million in net borrowings under our line of credit.  In addition, our subsidiary, Ovex borrowed $1.9 million under a government sponsored export finance borrowing program that carries annual interest rates of 6.5%. 

Credit facility:

As of September 30, 2007, we had approximately $6.0 million in cash and working capital of $16.4 million.  

28

Our two primary information technology sales subsidiaries, En Pointe Technologies Sales, Inc. and En Pointe Gov, Inc., and GE Commercial Distribution Finance Corporation (“GE”) are parties to that certain Business Financing Agreement and that certain Agreement for Wholesale Financing dated June 25, 2004, as amended to date (collectively, the Agreements”).  We are the guarantor of the obligations under the Agreements.  Under the flooring arrangement, the two subsidiaries may purchase and finance information technology products from GE-approved vendors on terms that depend upon certain variable factors.  The two subsidiaries may borrow up to 85% of their collective eligible accounts receivable at an interest rate of prime plus 1.0% per annum, subject to a minimum rate of 5.0%.  Such purchases from GE-approved vendors have historically been on terms that allow interest-free flooring.  The original Agreements provided for a $30.0 million accounts receivable and flooring facility and expired on June 25, 2007, but were extended on June 13, 2007 to July 31, 2007 via a temporary overline letter agreement.

Effective July 25, 2007, the facility was increased to $45.0 million and certain financial covenants were revised pursuant to an addendum executed among the parties.  The addendum also provided an extension of the term of the facility for a period of three years from August 1, 2007 and for successive one-year renewal periods thereafter, subject to termination at the end of any such period on at least sixty days prior written notice by any party to the other parties.

Effective September 25, 2007, we entered into an amendment to delete all prior financial covenants contained in the Agreements and to restate them effective for the last day of each calendar quarter as follows (as such terms are defined in the Agreements):

• Tangible Net Worth and Subordinated Debt in the combined amount of not less than $12,750,000.

• Total Funded Indebtedness to EBITDA for the preceding four fiscal quarters then ended, shall be no more than 3.00:1.00.

We were in compliance with all of our debt covenants as of September 30, 2007.

The GE facility is collateralized by accounts receivable, inventory and substantially all of our other assets.  As of September 30, 2007, approximately $30.3 million in borrowings were outstanding under the $45.0 million financing facility.  At September 30, 2007, there were additional borrowings available of approximately $14.7 million after taking into consideration the borrowing limitations under the Agreements, as amended to date.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

Accounting pronouncements adopted:

In September 2006, the SEC released Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 108, Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements ("SAB 108").  We adopted SAB 108 in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2007. SAB 108 requires registrants to use both a balance sheet approach and an income statement approach when quantifying and evaluating the materiality of a misstatement and to adjust the financial statements if either approach results in quantifying a misstatement that is material.

In adopting the requirements of SAB 108, we determined that previously accrued taxes that were overstated by $0.2 million and immaterial to the balance sheet, could be considered material to the income statement, if adjusted.  The accrued tax overstatement resulted from an under accrual of an income tax refund in years prior to 2002, which had been evaluated as being immaterial under the reversing (rollover) method at that time.  We reported the cumulative effect of the initial application of SAB 108 by adjusting accumulated deficit as of September 30, 2006 with a credit of $0.2 million.

In March 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued FAS 156, Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assets - an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 140.  This standard clarifies when to separately account for servicing rights, requires servicing rights to be separately recognized initially at fair value, and provides the option of subsequently accounting for servicing rights at either fair value or under the amortization method.  The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2006 but can be adopted early as long as financial statements for the fiscal year in which early adoption is elected, including interim statements, have not yet been issued.  We adopted this accounting pronouncement effective October 1, 2006 and the adoption has not had a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

29

In February 2006, the FASB issued FAS 155, Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial Instruments - an Amendment of FASB Statements No. 133 and 140.  This statement permits fair value remeasurement for any hybrid financial instrument that contains an embedded derivative that would otherwise have to be accounted for separately.  The new statement also requires companies to identify interests in securitized financial assets that are freestanding derivatives or contain embedded derivatives that would have to be accounted for separately, clarifies which interest-and principal-only strips are subject to Statement No. 133, and amends Statement No. 140 to revise the conditions of a qualifying special purpose entity due to the new requirement to identify whether interests in securitized financial assets are freestanding derivatives or contain embedded derivates.  This statement is effective for all financial instruments acquired or issued after the beginning of an entity's first fiscal year that begins after September 15, 2006.  We adopted this accounting pronouncement effective October 1, 2006 and the adoption has not had a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

Accounting pronouncements pending adoption:

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities-Including an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 115, which is effective for the Company in fiscal years beginning July 1, 2008.  This statement permits an entity to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value at specified election dates.  Subsequent unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected will be reported in earnings.  We are currently evaluating the potential impact, if any, that the adoption of SFAS 159 will have on our consolidated financial statements.

In September 2006, the FASB issued FAS 157, Fair Value Measurements.  This standard defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.  This statement is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. We do not anticipate that the adoption of this accounting pronouncement will have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

In July 2006, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes ("FIN No. 48").  This interpretation requires recognition and measurement of uncertain income tax positions using a "more-likely-than-not" approach.  The provisions of FIN No. 48 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006.  We do not anticipate that the adoption of this accounting pronouncement will have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

We do not currently have any off-balance sheet arrangements within the meaning of Item 303(a)(4) of Regulation S-K.

OBLIGATIONS AND COMMITMENTS

As of September 30, 2007, we had the following obligations and commitments to make future payments, contracts, contractual obligations and commercial commitments:

	Payments Due by Period (In Thousands)
				Less Than
Contractual Cash Obligations	Total			1 Year		1-3 Years		4-5 Years		After 5 Years

Impact of Inflation

We do not believe that inflation has had or will have a material effect on our net sales or results of operations.

ITEM 7A.  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK

The primary objective of our investment activities is to preserve principal while at the same time maximizing the income we receive from our investments without significantly increasing risk.  Some of the securities that we invest in may have market risk.  This means that a change in prevailing interest rates may cause the principal amount of the investment to fluctuate.  For example, if we hold a security that was issued with a fixed interest rate at the then-prevailing rate and the prevailing interest rate later rises, the principal amount of our investment will probably decline.  Seeking to minimize this risk, we maintain our portfolio of cash equivalents and short-term investments in a variety of securities, including commercial paper, money market funds, government and non-government debt securities.  The average duration of all of our investments in fiscal year 2007 was less than one year.  Due to the short-term nature of these investments, we believe we have no material exposure to interest rate risk arising from our investments.  A hypothetical 10% adverse move in interest rates along the entire interest rate yield curve would not materially affect the fair market value of our interest sensitive financial investments.  Declines in interest rates over time will, however, reduce our investment income, while increases in interest rates over time will increase our interest expense.  Historically, and as of September 30, 2007, we have not used derivative instruments or engaged in hedging activities.

We presently have limited exposure to market risk from changes in interest rates from borrowings under our line of credit with GE.  While GE’s lending agreements provide for interest at 1% over prime per annum with a minimum rate of 5.0%, effectively with the interest-free flooring that has been made available, we incur little or no interest expense.  Therefore, a hypothetical 10% increase in the interest rate from the levels as of September 30, 2007 would not have a material impact on our financial position, consolidated results of operations or cash flows.

We are exposed to foreign currency risk and exchange rate differences to the extent of our investment in Ovex in Pakistan since such operations incur local operating costs and generate third party revenues in currencies other than the U.S. dollar..  To date we have not entered into any hedging transactions or market sensitive instruments to attempt to reduce our exposure to foreign currency exchange risks.  However, we may decide in the future to implement an active hedging program utilizing derivative instruments to assist in managing our foreign currency exchange risk.  Based on our overall foreign exchange rate exposure at September 30, 2007, a 10% change in the Rupee would not have a material effect on our financial position, consolidated results of operations or cash flows.

We are also committed to certain off-balance sheet obligations represented by operating leases for office facilities and various types of office equipment which are fully disclosed in the financial statement footnotes.  We have no commercial paper, derivatives, swaps, hedges, joint ventures and/or partnerships, or currency fluctuation to disclose and evaluate for market risks.

ITEM 9A.  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15(d)-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act) that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

An evaluation as of the end of the period covered by this annual report was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation our “disclosure controls and procedures,” as such term is defined under Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d -15(e) promulgated under the Exchange Act.  Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

31

Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, have evaluated any changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarterly period covered by this report, and have concluded that there was no change during the fourth quarter of our 2007 fiscal year that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders

En Pointe Technologies, Inc.

El Segundo, California

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of En Pointe Technologies, Inc. and subsidiaries (the "Company") as of September 30, 2007 and 2006, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the years then ended.  In connection with our audits of the consolidated financial statements, we have also audited Schedule II (Valuation and qualifying accounts).  These consolidated financial statements and schedule are the responsibility of the Company’s management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements and schedule based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards established by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement.  The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting.  Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.  Accordingly, we express no such opinion.  An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.  We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of En Pointe Technologies, Inc. and subsidiaries as of September 30, 2007 and 2006, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.  Also in our opinion, the related schedule, when considered in relation to the basic consolidated financial statements taken as a whole, present fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth therein.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1 ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

ORGANIZATION

The Company is a reseller of information technology products and a provider of value-added services to large and medium sized companies and government entities with sales and service personnel in 17 markets located throughout the United States. The Company is headquartered in El Segundo, California and was originally incorporated in Texas in 1993 and reincorporated in Delaware in 1996.  The parent company, En Pointe Technologies, Inc., is a holding company and provides administrative services to its subsidiaries.  All sales are conducted through subsidiaries.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

As of September 30, 2007, the Company had approximately $6.0 million in cash and working capital of $16.4 million.  As discussed in Note 3, in July 2007, the Company entered into an Addendum to its original replacement working capital financing facility with GE Commercial Distribution Finance Corporation (“GE”).  Under terms of the Addendum the Company’s two wholly-owned subsidiaries engaged in information technology hardware and software selling may borrow up to $45.0 million.  The term of the facility is for a period of three years, except that either party may terminate the agreement upon 60 days’ prior written notice to the other party.  As of September 30, 2007, credit line borrowings amounted to $30.3 million with additional borrowings available of approximately $14.7 million after taking into consideration the available collateral and borrowing limitations under its agreements.  Borrowings under the line of credit agreement are collateralized by substantially all of the Company’s assets.  The financing agreements contain various liquidity financial debt covenants as explained in Note 3.  The Company was in compliance with all of its debt covenants as of September 30, 2007.

PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

The consolidated financial statements include the Company’s accounts and those of its wholly-owned and majority-owned subsidiaries as well its affiliate, Premier BPO, Inc. (formerly known as En Pointe Global Services, Inc., “PBPO”), an approximate 30% voting interest owned Variable Interest Entity.  All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidated financial statements.  Since there are other stockholders of PBPO who collectively represent approximately 69% voting interest, both their majority ownership interest and their entitlement to share in losses is reflected in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet and statement of operations as “minority interest”.  Losses allocated to the 69% owners of PBPO are not based upon the percentage of ownership, but upon the “at risk” capital of each of those owners.  Losses in excess of their “at risk” capital are allocated to the Company without regard for the Company’s capital at risk.  To date, such losses absorbed amounted to $2.4 million and exceed the Company’s invested capital of $1.4 million by $1.0 million.

INVESTMENT IN VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITY (“VIE”) - PREMIER PBO, INC. (“PBPO”)

The Company has, in a series of investments, invested through September 30, 2007, the cumulative amount of $759,000 (representing an approximate 30% voting interest) in the common stock of PBPO, in the privately-held corporation.  PBPO is a business process outsourcing company formed in October 2003 and headquartered in Clarksville, Tennessee.

In addition to the Company’s common stock investment in PBPO, the Company invested $600,000 in PBPO in the form of a five-year 6% interest-bearing note that subsequently was converted into Series A non-voting convertible preferred stock of PBPO in October 2004.  The preferred stock may not be converted to common stock until the earlier of five years from the issuance date of the preferred stock or the effective date of an initial public offering.  The conversion price is set as the greater of $100 per share or the fair market value, as determined under the preferred stock agreement.  En Pointe’s approximate 30% voting interest in PBPO referenced above excludes the Series A non-voting convertible preferred stock that it holds.

PBPO is considered a related party because of the Company’s equity interest in PBPO as well as the interrelationship of several of the investors with the Company.  One of the Company’s board members, Mark Briggs, owns approximately 17% of PBPO and also serves as its Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer.  Further, the Company’s CEO, Bob Din, represents En Pointe’s interest as a member of the board of directors of PBPO.  In addition, the owners of Ovex Technologies (Private) Limited (“Ovex”), the Pakistani company that performs the operational and accounting side of the Company’s outsourcing under a cost plus fixed agreement that may be cancelled upon written notice, owns collectively approximately 16% of PBPO.  Omar and Arif Saeed, who as of October 1, 2006 were collectively approximate 30% owners of Ovex also hold shares of Series A non-voting convertible preferred stock of PBPO that they received in October 2004 in exchange for the conversion of their five-year notes that aggregated $603,000 in principal and interest.  The preferred shares held by the Saeeds are a component of the PBPO minority interest and as such are not subject to the allocation of PBPO losses.

      

                  F - 8               

    

Because of the substantial investment that the Company made in PBPO, the related party nature of the investment, as well as other factors, when the Company’s acquired interest in PBPO was evaluated, it was determined that PBPO met the tests of a Variable Interest Entity under Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Interpretation No. 46 (“FIN 46”) and PBPO’s financial results have thus been consolidated with the Company’s financial statements since PBPO’s inception.

PBPO, has contracted with Ovex in Pakistan and has employees in China to provide its workforces for back-office support.  PBPO shares workspace with the Company in Islamabad for a nominal fee using contracted Ovex workers and contracts directly with Ovex for workspace and workers in Lahore.

USE OF ESTIMATES

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

REVENUE RECOGNITION

Net sales consist primarily of revenue from the sale of hardware, software, peripherals, and service and support contracts.  The Company applies the provisions of the SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) No. 104, “Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements,” which provides guidance on the recognition, presentation and disclosure of revenue in financial statements filed with the SEC.  SAB No 104 outlines the basic criteria that must be met to recognize revenue and provides guidance for disclosure related to revenue recognition policies. In general, the Company recognizes revenue when (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (ii) delivery of products has occurred or services have been rendered, (iii) the sales price charged is fixed or determinable and (iv) collection is reasonably assured.

Under our standard shipping terms title passes upon delivery to a common carrier but revenue is not recognized until delivery takes place which is generally two to three days later.  Product is therefore considered received and accepted by the customer only upon the customer’s receipt of the product from the carrier.  Any undelivered product is included in our inventory.

The majority of the Company’s sales relate to physical products and are recognized on a gross basis with the selling price to the customer recorded as net sales and the acquisition cost of the product recorded as cost of sales.  However, software maintenance contracts, software agency fees, and extended warranties that are sold in which the Company is not the primary obligor, are recorded on a net basis in accordance with SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104 “Revenue Recognition” and Emerging Issues Task Force 99-19, “Reporting Revenue Gross as a Principal versus Net as an Agent.”  Such net revenues are recognized in full at the time of sale.

The Company has adopted the provisions of Statement of Position No. 97-2, “Software Revenue Recognition” (SOP 97-2) as amended by SOP No. 98-9, “Modification of SOP 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition with Respect to Certain Transactions” (SOP 98-9) in recognizing revenue from software transactions.  Revenue from software license sales is recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery of the product has been made, and a fixed fee and collectibility has been determined.

Service revenues are recognized based on contracted hourly rates, as services are rendered or upon completion of specified contracted services and acceptance by the customer.  Revenue from customer maintenance support agreements, in which the Company is not the primary obligor, is reported on a net basis and recognized at the time of the sale. Net sales consist of product and service revenues, less discounts and estimated allowances for sales returns.  Cost of sales include the cost of product and services sold and current and estimated allowances for product returns that will not be accepted by our suppliers, less rebates.

Deferred revenues result from prepaid management services and maintenance contracts.  Many management services are pre-billed quarterly and income is recognized as services are performed.  The Company’s maintenance contracts are generally for services that may be performed over a one year period of time.  Income is recognized on such contracts ratably over the period of the contract.

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all time deposits and highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.  The Company has bank balances, including cash equivalents, which typically exceed federally insured limits.

      

                  F - 9              

    

RESTRICTED CASH

Restricted cash at September 30, 2007 and 2006 represents deposits maintained for certain government tax agencies.

INVENTORIES

Inventories consist principally of merchandise being configured for customer orders and merchandise purchased by the Company that has been drop shipped, but not yet received and accepted by the customer and are stated at the lower of cost (specific identification method) or market.  On an ongoing basis, inventories are reviewed and written down for estimated obsolescence or unmarketable inventories equal to the difference between the cost of inventories and the estimated net realizable value.  Changes to increase inventory reserves are recorded as an increase in cost of goods sold.

PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

Property and equipment are stated at cost and are depreciated using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives of three to seven years.  Assets acquired under capital lease arrangements are recorded at the present value of the minimum lease payments and are amortized using the straight-line method over the life of the asset or term of the lease, whichever is shorter.  Such amortization expense is included in depreciation expense.  Leasehold improvements are amortized using the straight-line method over the shorter of the lease terms or the useful lives of the improvements.  Expenses for repairs and maintenance are charged to expense as incurred, while renewals and betterments are capitalized.  Gains or losses on the sale or disposal of property and equipment are reflected in operating income.

The Company accounts for computer software costs developed for internal use in accordance with Statement of Position 98-1 (SOP 98-1), “Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use,” which requires companies to capitalize certain qualifying costs during the application development stage of the related software development project and to exclude the initial planning phase that determines performance requirements, most data conversion, general and administrative costs related to payroll and training costs incurred.  Whenever a software program is considered operational, the Company considers the project to be completed and places it into service and commences amortization of the development cost in the succeeding month.

In fiscal year 2005 the Company concluded the development of three internal-use software programs that are being amortized on a straight-line basis over the economic lives of each of the software products that is estimated to be four years.  Costs capitalized include internal payroll and direct fringe benefits and external direct project costs, including labor and travel.  The Company began amortizing its first internal-use programs in May and the remaining two in October 2005.  The Company’s property and equipment (see Note 2), as of September 30, 2007, 2006, and 2005 included $948,000, $781,000 and $781,000 respectively of capitalized software development costs included in computer equipment and software in addition to the software under-development.

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The carrying amounts of financial instruments including cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable and payable, accrued and other current liabilities and current maturities of long-term debt approximate fair value due to their short maturity.  The carrying amount of the Company’s long-term liabilities also approximates fair value based on interest rates currently available to us for debt of similar terms and remaining maturities.

IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS

The Company assesses the potential impairments of its long-lived assets in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-lived Assets”.  An impairment review is performed whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the assets may not be recoverable.  Factors the Company considers include, but are not limited to, significant underperformance relative to expected historical or projected future operating results; significant changes in the manner of use of the acquired assets or the strategy for the overall business; and significant negative industry or economic trends.  When the carrying value of a long-lived asset may not be recoverable based upon the existence of one or more of the above indicators of impairment, the Company estimates the future undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition.  If the sum of the expected future undiscounted cash flows and eventual disposition is less than the carrying amount of the asset, the Company recognizes an impairment loss.  An impairment loss is reflected as the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset, based on the fair market value if available, or discounted cash flows, if not.  To date, the Company has not recognized an impairment charge related to the write-down of long-lived assets.

      

                  F - 10              

    

GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS

The Company accounts for its goodwill and intangible assets in accordance with the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS) No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets”, which requires, among other things, that purchased goodwill and certain intangibles not be amortized.  Under a nonamortization approach, goodwill and intangibles having an indefinite life are not amortized, but instead will be reviewed for impairment at least annually or if an event occurs or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may be impaired.  Events or circumstances which could indicate an impairment include a significant change in the business climate, economic and industry trends, legal factors, negative operating performance indicators, significant competition, changes in strategy or disposition of a reporting unit or a portion thereof.  Goodwill impairment testing is performed at the reporting unit level.

SFAS 142 requires that goodwill be tested annually for impairment using a two-step process.  If an event occurs that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying amount, then goodwill shall be tested at that time.  The first step of the goodwill impairment test, used to identify potential impairment, compares the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount, including goodwill.  If the fair value of a reporting unit exceeds its carrying amount, goodwill of the reporting unit is not considered to be impaired and the second step of the impairment test is unnecessary.  If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, the second step of the goodwill impairment test must be performed to measure the amount of impairment loss, if any.  The second step of the goodwill impairment test compares the implied fair value of reporting unit goodwill with the carrying amount of that goodwill.  The implied fair value of goodwill is determined in the same manner as the amount of goodwill recognized in a business combination.  If the carrying amount of the reporting unit goodwill exceeds the implied fair value of that goodwill, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to that excess.

Application of the goodwill impairment test requires judgment, including the identification of reporting units, assignment of assets and liabilities to reporting units, assignment of goodwill to reporting units, and determination of the fair value of each reporting unit.  The fair value of each reporting unit is estimated using a discounted cash flow methodology.  This requires significant judgments including estimation of future cash flows, which is dependent on internal forecasts, estimation of the long-term rate of growth for the

Company’s business, the useful life over which cash flows will occur, and determination of the weighted average cost of capital.  Changes in these estimates and assumptions could materially affect the determination of fair value and/or goodwill impairment for each reporting unit.

In accordance with SFAS 142, the Company selected September 30 as the date on which to perform its annual goodwill impairment test.  Based on its valuation of goodwill, no impairment charges related to the write-down of goodwill were recognized for the years ended September 30, 2007, 2006 and 2005.

In connection with the Company’s acquisitions, the Company has applied the provisions of SFAS No. 141 “Business Combinations”, using the purchase method of accounting.  The assets and liabilities assumed were recorded at their estimated fair values as determined by management and were based on information currently available and current assumptions as to future operations.  The excess purchase price over those fair values was recorded as goodwill.  The Company’s goodwill balance during the years ended September 30, 2007 and 2006 was $1,080,000 and $623,000, respectively, and was included in other assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

Separable intangible assets that have finite useful lives are amortized over their useful lives.  An impaired asset is written down to fair value.  Intangible assets with finite useful lives consist of customer relationships and non-compete agreements and are amortized over the expected benefit period using the straight-line and sum-of-the-years-digits methods.  At September 30, 2007 and 2006, such intangible assets amounted to $705,000 (net of $1,096,000 of accumulated amortization) and $609,000 (net of $674,000 of accumulated amortization), respectively, and are included in other assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

ADVERTISING AND SHIPPING AND HANDLING COSTS

The Company reports the costs of all advertising in the periods in which those costs are incurred.  For the fiscal years ended September 30, 2007, 2006, and 2005 advertising expense was approximately $403,000, $346,000 and $224,000 respectively.  Shipping and handling costs incurred by the Company are included in cost of sales.

INCOME TAXES

The Company accounts for income taxes under the liability method.  Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws which will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse.  Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amounts more likely than not to be realized.  Income tax expense represents the tax payable for the period and the change during the period in deferred tax assets and liabilities.

CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK AND MAJOR CUSTOMERS AND VENDORS

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk consists principally of cash deposits and trade accounts receivable. The Company’s cash deposits are placed with a few financial institutions. The combined account balances at one or more institutions typically exceed the $100,000 Federal Depository Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") insurance coverage, and, as a result, there is a concentration of credit risk related to amounts on deposit in excess of FDIC insurance coverage. The Company believes that the risk is not significant, as the Company does not anticipate the financial institutions' non-performance.

The Company had one large customer that accounted for 24% of its total accounts receivable at the end of fiscal year 2007.  That customer subsequently timely paid the balance owed to the Company in full.  Other than that one customer, no other one customer accounted for more than 10% of net sales or outstanding accounts receivable at fiscal year end for the past three fiscal years.

The Company performs periodic credit evaluations of the financial condition of its customers, monitors collections and payments from customers, and generally does not require collateral.  Receivables are generally due within 45 days.  The Company provides for the possible inability to collect accounts receivable by recording an allowance for doubtful accounts.  The Company writes off an account when it is considered to be uncollectible.  The Company estimates its allowance for doubtful accounts based on historical experience, aging of accounts receivable, and information regarding the creditworthiness of its customers.  To date, losses have been within the range of management’s expectations.

The Company contracts with various suppliers.  Although there are a limited number of suppliers capable of supplying its inventory needs, the Company believes that any shortfalls from existing suppliers would be absorbed from other suppliers on comparable terms.  However, a change in suppliers could cause a delay in sales and adversely effect results.

Purchases from the Company’s three largest vendors during the years ended September 30, 2007, 2006, and 2005, comprised, 49%, 51%, and 54%, respectively, of its total purchases of product.

TREASURY STOCK

The Company uses the specific identification method for accounting for treasury stock.  During the 2004 fiscal year, the Company issued 1,000 additional shares for employee stock benefit plans with a cost basis of $2,000.  At September 30, 2007 and 2006, there remained approximately 1,000 treasury shares, with a cost of $1,000.

STOCK BASED COMPENSATION

Prior to October 1, 2005, the Company accounted for grants of options to employees to purchase its common stock using the intrinsic value method in accordance with Accounting Principle Board (“APB”) Opinion No. 25 and FASB Interpretation No. 44 (“FIN No. 44”), “Accounting for Certain Transactions Involving Stock Compensation”.  As permitted by SFAS No. 123 and as amended by SFAS No. 148, the Company had chosen to continue to account for such option grants under APB Opinion No. 25 and provide the expanded disclosures specified in SFAS No. 123, as amended by SFAS No. 148.  Beginning October 1, 2005, the Company adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 123(R) using the prospective method.

      

                  F - 12               

    

On July 19, 2005, the Board of Directors and Compensation Committee approved accelerating the exercisability of 316,106 unvested stock options outstanding under the Company’s 1996 stock incentive plan effective as of July 20, 2005.  The options are held by employees, including executive officers, and directors, and have a range of exercise prices of $1.25 to $3.38 per share and a weighted average exercise price of $2.03 per share.  The closing price per share of the Company’s common stock on July 19, 2005, the last trading day before effectiveness of the acceleration, was $3.21.  Of the total number of options accelerated, executive officers and directors of the Company hold options to purchase an aggregate of 202,906 shares of common stock.  In order to prevent unintended personal benefits, shares of the Company’s common stock received upon exercise of an accelerated option remain subject to the original vesting period with respect to transferability of such shares and, consequently, may not be sold or otherwise transferred prior to the earlier of termination of continuous service with the Company or expiration of such original vesting period.

The purpose of accelerating vesting was to minimize the Company’s recognition of compensation expense associated with these options upon adoption of SFAS No. 123(R) in the first quarter of fiscal 2006.  The maximum aggregate pre-tax expense associated with the accelerated options that would have been reflected in the Company’s consolidated financial statements in future fiscal years is estimated to be approximately $581,000.  The accelerated exercisability of options created an additional compensation expense to provide for an estimate of the benefit that would be received by future terminating employees who exercise options prior to the term of their respective original vesting periods.  The compensation expense was based an estimate of the future turnover percentage times the intrinsic value of the accelerated stock options on July 20, 2005 and amounted to additional compensation expense of approximately $68,000, all of which was recognized in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2005.  However, to the extent that any accelerated options are exercised prior to the term of their respective original vesting periods and the estimated compensation expense proves insufficient, the Company may incur additional compensation expense under SFAS No. 123(R).  The Company’s full Board of Directors ratified the acceleration to the extent affected options were held by members of the Compensation Committee.

Had the option grants and the acceleration of option grants been determined based on their fair value at the grant date for awards consistent with the provisions of SFAS No. 123, the effect on the compensation cost for the Company’s net income (loss) and net income (loss) per share would have been reduced to the pro forma amounts indicated below (in thousands, except per share amounts):

	Fiscal Year Ended September 30,
	2007		2006		2005

 VENDOR PROGRAMS

The Company receives incentives from suppliers related to product and volume rebates and cooperative marketing development funds.  These incentives are generally under monthly, quarterly, or annual agreements with the suppliers; however, some of these incentives are product driven or are provided to support specific programs established by the supplier.  Suppliers generally require that the Company uses their cooperative marketing development funds exclusively for advertising or other marketing programs.  These restricted cooperative marketing development funds are generally recognized as a reduction of operating expense or in some cases, when funds are in excess of their targeted marketing program, a reduction of cost of goods sold in accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 02-16, “Accounting by a Customer (Including a Reseller) for Certain Consideration Received from a Vendor”, as the related marketing expenses are recognized.

As rebates are earned, the Company records the income as a reduction of cost of goods sold.  Any amounts received from suppliers related to cooperative marketing development funds, are deferred until earned.  Incentive programs are subject to audit as to whether the requirements of the incentives were actually met.  The Company establishes reserves to cover any collectibility risks including subsequent supplier audits.

EARNINGS PER SHARE

The Company accounts for earnings per common share in accordance with SFAS 128 “Earnings per Share”.  Basic net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.  Diluted net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) for the period by the weighted average number of common shares and common share equivalents outstanding during the period.  Common share equivalents, consisting of stock options, are not included in the calculation to the extent they are antidilutive.

COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

SFAS No. 130, ‘‘Reporting Comprehensive Income.’’ establishes standards for reporting and displaying comprehensive income and its components in financial statements. SFAS No. 130 requires that all items that are required to be reported under accounting standards as components of comprehensive income be reported in a financial statement that is displayed with the same prominence as other financial statements.  The Company has reported comprehensive income for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2007, but did not have any components of comprehensive income for fiscal years ended September 30, 2006 and 2005.

SEGMENT REPORTING

The provisions of SFAS No. 131, “Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information”, require public companies to report financial and descriptive information about their reportable operating segments.  The Company identifies reportable segments based on how management internally evaluates separate financial information, business activities and management responsibility.  For the years ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, the Company operated in only one segment.  In fiscal year ended September 30, 2007, the Company began operating in three segments as follows: 

	As of and for the Year Ended September 30, 2007
	US		Pakistan		China
	Sales of Product		Business Process		Business Process			Intersegment			Consolidated
In Thousands	and Services		Services		Services			Eliminations			Total
Sales from non affiliated customers	$	346,237	$	884	$	5		$	--		$	347,126
Intersegment sales	$	--	$	7,827	$	218		$	(8,045	)	$	0
Depreciation and amortization	$	1,920	$	378	$	22		$	--		$	2,320
Segment profit (loss)	$	1,140	$	649	$	(96	)	$	(67	)	$	1,626
Segment assets	$	87,887	$	4,232	$	170		$	(6,283	)	$	86,006

The Company recognizes revenues in geographic areas based on the location to which the product was shipped or services have been rendered.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

Accounting pronouncements adopted:

In September 2006, the SEC released Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 108, Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements ("SAB 108").  The Company adopted SAB 108 in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2007. SAB 108 requires registrants to use both a balance sheet approach and an income statement approach when quantifying and evaluating the materiality of a misstatement and to adjust the financial statements if either approach results in quantifying a misstatement that is material.

In adopting the requirements of SAB 108, the Company determined that previously accrued taxes that were overstated by $0.2 million and immaterial to the balance sheet, could be considered material to the income statement, if adjusted.  The accrued tax overstatement resulted from an under accrual of an income tax refund in years prior to 2002, which had been evaluated as being immaterial under the reversing (rollover) method at that time.  The Company reported the cumulative effect of the initial application of SAB 108 by adjusting accumulated deficit as of September 30, 2006 with a credit of $0.2 million.

In March 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued FAS 156, Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assets - an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 140. This standard clarifies when to separately account for servicing rights, requires servicing rights to be separately recognized initially at fair value, and provides the option of subsequently accounting for servicing rights at either fair value or under the amortization method.  The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2006 but can be adopted early as long as financial statements for the fiscal year in which early adoption is elected, including interim statements, have not yet been issued.  The Company adopted this accounting pronouncement effective October 1, 2006 and the adoption has not had a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

In February 2006, the FASB issued FAS 155, Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial Instruments - an Amendment of FASB Statements No. 133 and 140.  This statement permits fair value remeasurement for any hybrid financial instrument that contains an embedded derivative that would otherwise have to be accounted for separately.  The new statement also requires companies to identify interests in securitized financial assets that are freestanding derivatives or contain embedded derivatives that would have to be

accounted for separately, clarifies which interest-and principal-only strips are subject to Statement No. 133, and amends Statement No. 140 to revise the conditions of a qualifying special purpose entity due to the new requirement to identify whether interests in securitized financial assets are freestanding derivatives or contain embedded derivates.  This statement is effective for all financial instruments acquired or issued after the beginning of an entity's first fiscal year that begins after September 15, 2006.  The Company adopted this accounting pronouncement effective October 1, 2006 and the adoption has not had a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

Accounting pronouncements pending adoption:

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities-Including an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 115, which is effective for the Company in fiscal years beginning July 1, 2008.  This statement permits an entity to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value at specified election dates.  Subsequent unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected will be reported in earnings.  The Company does not anticipate that the adoption of this accounting pronouncement will have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements

      

                  F - 15             

    

In September 2006, the FASB issued FAS 157, Fair Value Measurements.  This standard defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.  This statement is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007.  The Company does not anticipate that the adoption of this accounting pronouncement will have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

In July 2006, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes ("FIN No. 48").  This interpretation requires recognition and measurement of uncertain income tax positions using a "more-likely-than-not" approach.  The provisions of FIN No. 48 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006.  The Company does not anticipate that the adoption of this accounting pronouncement will have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

PRIOR YEAR BALANCE SHEET RECLASSIFICATION

In the September 30, 2006 financial statements, current maturities of long-term debt of $346,000 was included with Accrued Taxes and Other Liabilities in the balance sheet presentation.  For fiscal year 2007 the current maturities of long-term debt were reclassified for both 2007 and 2006 fiscal years and included with Short-Term Borrowings and Current Maturities of Long-Term Debt.

2 PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

Property and equipment consist of the following (in thousands):

	September 30,
	2007			2006
Software under development	$	344		$	197
Computer equipment and software		12,925			9,519
Office equipment and other		1,075			1,006
Warehouse equipment		116			151
Leasehold improvements		812			561
Capitalized leases (see Note 7)		1,938			1,211
		17,210			12,644
Less: Accumulated depreciation and amortization		(12,188	)		(9,879	)
	$	5,022		$	2,765

Depreciation and amortization expense was $2,320,000, $1,491,000 and $1,110,000 for the years ended September 30, 2007, 2006, and 2005, respectively.  Assets fully depreciated were $8,380,000 and $8,328,000 for the years ended September 30, 2007, and 2006, respectively.  Accumulated amortization on capitalized leases was $849,000 and $433,000 at September 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

3 LINES OF CREDIT

The Company’s two primary information technology sales subsidiaries, En Pointe Technologies Sales, Inc. and En Pointe Gov, Inc., and GE Commercial Distribution Finance Corporation (“GE”) are parties to that certain Business Financing Agreement and that certain Agreement for Wholesale Financing dated June 25, 2004, as amended to date (collectively, the “Agreements”).  The Company is the guarantor of the obligations under the Agreements.  Under the flooring arrangement, the two subsidiaries may purchase and finance information technology products from GE-approved vendors on terms that depend upon certain variable factors.  The two subsidiaries may borrow up to 85% of the Company’s collective eligible accounts receivable at an interest rate of prime plus 1.0% per annum, subject to a minimum rate of 5.0%.  Such purchases from GE-approved vendors have historically been on terms that allow interest-free flooring.  The original Agreements provided for a $30.0 million accounts receivable and flooring facility and expired on June 25, 2007, but were extended on June 13, 2007 to July 31, 2007 via a temporary overline letter agreement.

      

                  F -  16            

    

Effective July 25, 2007, the facility was increased to $45.0 million and certain financial covenants were revised pursuant to an addendum executed among the parties.  The addendum also provided an extension of the term of the facility for a period of three years from August 1, 2007 and for successive one-year renewal periods thereafter, subject to termination at the end of any such period on at least sixty days prior written notice by any party to the other parties.

Effective September 25, 2007, the parties entered into an amendment to delete all prior financial covenants contained in the Agreements and to restate them effective for the last day of each calendar quarter as follows (as such terms are defined in the Agreements):

• Tangible Net Worth and Subordinated Debt in the combined amount of not less than $12,750,000.

• Total Funded Indebtedness to EBITDA for the preceding four fiscal quarters then ended, shall be no more than 3.00:1.00.

The GE facility is collateralized by accounts receivable, inventory and substantially all of our other assets.  As of September 30, 2007, approximately $30.3 million in borrowings were outstanding under the $45.0 million financing facility.  At September 30, 2007, there were additional borrowings available of approximately $14.7 million after taking into consideration the borrowing limitations under the Agreements, as amended to date.

Since the Company replaced its working capital financing facility in June 2004, minimal interest expense has been incurred on borrowings under the line of credit because of the extended interest-free period under the flooring plan.  In fiscal years 2007, 2006 and 2005 such interest expense amounted to $11,000, $14,000 and $3,000 respectively.  Total interest expense, the majority of which in fiscal years 2007 and 2006 applied to capitalized leases and in the 2005 fiscal year related principally to the Ontario facility lease, for the years ended September 30, 2007, 2006 and 2005 was $318,000, $82,000 and $233,000 respectively.

4 OTHER INCOME

Other income consisted chiefly of insurance recovery from prior year losses, rental income, and early payment discounts from state sales tax authorities.

5 EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLAN

The Company has an employee savings plan (the ‘‘401(k) Plan’’) that covers substantially all full-time employees who are twenty-one years of age or older.  The Company’s contributions to the 401(k) Plan are at the discretion of the Board of Directors and vest over seven years of service.  To date the Company has made no contributions to the 401(k) Plan.

6 INCOME TAXES

The components of the income tax (benefit) provision are as follows (in thousands):

	Year Ended September 30,
	2007		2006		2005
Current:
Federal	$	28	$	20	$	13
State		32		22		8

		(263	)		--		--
	$	(203	)	$	--	$	--

      

                  F - 17               

    

The provision for income taxes differs from the amount computed by applying the federal statutory rate to income before provision for income taxes as follows:

	Year Ended September 30,
	2007				2006				2005
Federal statutory rate		35		%		35		%		35		%
State taxes, net of federal benefits		1				2				5
Expenses not deductible		5				8				23
Affiliate (earnings) losses not taxable		(11	)			35				312
Minority interest		2				(8	)			(83	)
Net operating loss carryforward		(50	)			(82	)			(123	)
Valuation allowances		8				18				(156	)
		(14	)	%		8		%		13		%

The Company’s consolidated return excludes two affiliates (see “Affilate (earnings) losses not taxable” in table above), PBPO and Ovex.  PBPO is excluded because the Company’s investment is less than the required 80% ownership required to consolidate under federal tax law and Ovex is excluded because foreign income is not subject to U.S. tax until distributed.

Deferred income taxes reflect the tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes.  Due to the uncertainty surrounding the realization of a portion of the net deferred tax asset of $4.9 million, management has provided a valuation allowance.  Significant components of deferred taxes are as follows (in thousands):

	September 30,
	2007			2006
Deferred tax assets:
Accounts receivable and other allowances	$	533		$	628
Expenses not currently deductible		1,170			883
Depreciation		295			250
Federal net operating loss and alternative minimum tax credits		2,001			2,436
State net operating loss		933			1,800
		4,931			5,996
Deferred tax liabilities		--			--
Net deferred tax asset		4,931			5,996
Valuation allowance		(4,531	)		(5,996	)
Deferred tax asset	$	400		$	--

Portion allocated to income	$	263
Portion allocated to equity related to stock options		137
Total deferred tax asset	$	400

The Company had the following Federal net operating losses (‘‘NOL’’) available:

Year NOL Incurred	NOL Amount		Expiration Date
2000	$	31	2020
2002		3,458	2022
2003		1,832	2023
	$	5,321

The above $5.3 million NOL carry forward will not benefit earnings, as it was attributable to the exercise of stock options and will be considered an adjustment to additional paid-in capital.

7 LONG-TERM LIABILITIES AND COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

The Company leases office facilities and various types of office equipment.  These leases vary in duration and many contain renewal options and/or escalation clauses.  Estimated future minimum lease payments under leases having initial or remaining non-cancelable lease terms in excess of one year at September 30, 2007 were approximately as follows (in thousands):

		Minimum Lease		Capitalized
		Payments		Leases
Fiscal year 2008	$	1,769	$	593
Fiscal year 2009		1,107		305
Fiscal year 2010		737		141
Fiscal year 2011		637		38
Fiscal year 2012		653
Thereafter		1,424
Total minimum lease payments	$	6,327		1,077
Less amount representing interest				(111	)
Principal amount			$	966
Current				519
Long-term				447
Total			$	966

In June 1999, the Company entered into a sale-leaseback arrangement for a 126,000 square foot configuration facility in Ontario, California.  Under SFAS No. 98, because of a sublease that was for more than 10% of the total leased premises, the Company was required to account for its lease, which would have otherwise been considered an operating lease, as a financing transaction.  The Company recorded lease payments as a reduction of its obligation to the lessor and as interest expense on such obligation, as well as depreciation expense on the capitalized property.

Upon termination of the sublease and conclusion that the Company no longer has a continuing interest in its Ontario facility in March 2005, the Company, in accordance with SFAS No. 98, removed the leased assets and liability accounts from its balance sheet.  However, over approximately six years, the capitalized leased assets had been depreciated more rapidly than the liability to the lessor was being amortized, resulting in the liability to the lessor exceeding the net book value of the capitalized lease property by $0.7 million at the date immediately preceding the termination of the sublease.

The $0.7 million gain was deferred and amortized on a straight-line basis over approximately sixteen months, which represented the conclusion of the seventh year of the fifteen year lease and the first date on which the Company could terminate the lease without cost or penalty.  During the years ended September 30, 2007, 2006 and 2005, the Company amortized into earnings $30,000, $387,000, and $330,000 respectively, of deferred gain.

For the years ended September 30, 2005 and 2004, Ontario facility rent expense, which was characterized as a financing lease under SFAS No. 98 until March 2005 and reported as interest expense, was approximately $218,000 and $534,000, respectively.

On August 26, 2005 the Company gave notification to the lessor of the Ontario facility of its intention to terminate the lease and its notification was acknowledged on September 14, 2005.  On March 30, 2006, the Company amended the lease agreement to extend the lease that was due to terminate on May 31, 2006 until October 31, 2006.  In August 2006, the Company found the alternative location for its configuration center that it was seeking and entered into a sublease agreement for approximately 95,090 square feet at Rancho Cucamonga, California.  The sublease is for approximately two and a half years, ending on February 15, 2009.

During June 2006, the Company moved its headquarters in El Segundo, California, where it leased approximately 24,000 square feet of office space, to an alternative El Segundo location where approximately 13,000 square feet of office space was subleased.  The sublease is for approximately two and a half years, ending on January 31, 2009.

Rent expense for the years ended September 30, 2007, 2006, and 2005 under all operating leases was approximately $1,292,000, $1,812,000 and $1,820,000, respectively.

Under an amendment to the employment agreement of the Company’s CEO entered into on October 1, 2004 and effective October 15, 2004, there is provision that in the event of termination of employment, under certain circumstances following an unapproved change in control of the Company, a severance payout equal to four times annual base salary in a single lump-sum payment will be made

Basic income per share	$	0.23	$	0.07	$	0.02
Diluted income per share	$	0.22	$	0.07	$	0.02

The Company has an anti-takeover provision in its Certificate of Incorporation, as amended to date, that grants its Board of Directors the authority to issue up to 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock and to determine the price, rights, preferences, qualifications, limitations and restrictions, including voting rights, of those shares without any further vote or action by the stockholders.  The rights of the holders of common stock will be subject to, and may be adversely affected by, the rights of the holders of any preferred stock that may be issued in the future.  The issuance of preferred stock, while providing desirable flexibility in connection with possible acquisitions and other corporate purposes, could have the effect of delaying or preventing a third party from acquiring a majority of the Company’s outstanding voting stock.  Further, Section 203 of the General Corporation Law of Delaware prohibits the Company from engaging in certain business combinations with interested stockholders.  These provisions may have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in the Company’s control without action by the stockholders, and therefore could adversely affect the market price of its common stock.

9 STOCK OPTIONS

In March 1996, the Company instituted a qualified and non-qualified stock option plan which provides currently that options for a maximum of 2,760,000 shares of common stock may be granted to directors, officers, and key employees with an exercise period not to exceed ten years.  The stock options are generally exercisable at fair market value at the date of grant and generally vest on a pro-rata basis ending on the third, ninth and twenty-seventh months following the grant date or 25% in six months with the remaining 75% vesting quarterly over three and one half years.  However, in anticipation of the adverse effects that adoption of SFAS No. 123(R) would have, the Compensation Committee and Board of Directors approved and made effective July 20, 2005 the acceleration of all unvested stock options.  In March 2006, under its terms, the the stock option plan terminated and no further shares are available for grant under the plan.

No options have been granted since the fiscal year ended September 30, 2005, when the Company granted options to purchase 275,000 shares of common stock to a director and an employee with exercise prices ranging from $2.00 to $2.10 per share.  The options granted were accelerated so as to be fully vested as of July 20, 2005 and will expire ten years from the date of grant unless earlier exercised or terminated.  A compensation charge was not recorded in connection with the issuance of such options as the exercise price of the stock options granted was not less than the fair market value of the Company’s stock price as of the date of grant.

10 ACQUISITION OF BUSINESSES

On September 19, 2006, the Company entered into a Share Purchase Agreement with Omar Saeed and Arif Saeed (the "Saeeds"), effective October 1, 2006, to acquire 70% of the capital stock of two privately owned Pakistani companies, Ovex Technologies (Private) Limited and Ovex Pakistan (Private) Limited. Subsequently, on July 7, 2007, the two companies were approved for merger by the Pakistan Court effective October 1, 2006.  The surviving company in the merger was Ovex Technologies (Private) Limited (“Ovex”).  

Both companies are engaged in providing business process outsourcing ("BPO") services and were wholly-owned by the Saeeds. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company paid the Saeeds a total of $1,680,000 in exchange for 70% of the capital stock of each of the two companies. The form of the consideration paid consisted of $240,000 in cash, $240,000 in unregistered shares of Company common stock, and a promissory note in the principal amount of $1,200,000, which promissory note was repaid in full in November 2006.  Additionally, the board of directors of Ovex consists of five members; one designated by the Company (Edward O. Hunter, a director of the Company, serves as the Company’s designee), one of the Saeeds and three designated mutually by the two designees.

The Company allocated the $1,680,000 purchase price to the tangible and intangible assets acquired, based on their estimated fair values. The excess purchase price over those fair values was recorded as goodwill. The fair value assigned to the intangible assets acquired was based on valuations estimated by management with the assistance of an independent appraisal firm.  In accordance with SFAS No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets”, goodwill and purchased intangibles with indefinite lives are not amortized but will be reviewed periodically for impairment. Of the purchase price, approximately $98,000 was allocated to amortizable (over five years using sum of the year’s digits method) customer relationships and approximately $420,000 was allocated to amortizable (over five years on a straight-line basis) non-competition agreements.  The allocation of the purchase price (in thousands) was as follows:

Tangible assets acquired	$	704
Excess purchase price over net assets acquired		976
Purchase price	$	1,680
Intangible assets:
Goodwill		458
Covenant not to compete		420
Customer relationships		98
Total intangibles	$	976

On January 18, 2006, pursuant to an Asset Purchase Agreement with Software Medium, Inc., a Texas corporation (“SMI”), and Veridyn, LLC, a Texas limited liability company and a wholly-owned subsidiary of SMI (“Veridyn,” and collectively with SMI, the “Sellers”), the Company acquired certain depreciable and intangible assets and assumed certain liabilities, including a short-term lease commitment for office facilities.  On closing, $550,000 in cash was paid to the Sellers.  Two of Sellers’ officers entered into employment agreements with the Company.  One of the officers was guaranteed a $250,000 bonus that will be payable over two years, subject to continued employment and is considered part of the purchase price.  The other Sellers’ officer’s employment agreement contains a performance-based bonus provision that is based on the percentage of Earnings before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (“EBITDA”) on sales of security services.  The bonus is payable over three years on a quarterly basis, subject to continued employment, and approximates 25% of such EBITDA per year, subject to a maximum annual aggregate bonus payment of $400,000.  Additional fees payable and estimated to be payable for professional services directly related to the acquisition total $175,000.

The Company allocated the $975,000 purchase price to the tangible and intangible assets acquired, based on their estimated fair values.  The excess purchase price over those fair values was recorded as goodwill.  The fair value assigned to the intangible assets acquired was based on valuations estimated by management with the assistance of an independent appraisal firm.  In accordance with SFAS No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets”, goodwill and purchased intangibles with indefinite lives acquired after June 30, 2001 are not amortized but will be reviewed periodically for impairment.  Of the purchase price, approximately $154,000 was allocated to amortizable (over five years using sum of the year’s digits method) customer relationships and approximately $460,000 was allocated to amortizable (over three years on a straight-line basis) non-competition agreements.  The allocation of the purchase

price (in thousands) was as follows:

Depreciable assets acquired	$	57
Excess purchase price over net assets acquired		918
Purchase price	$	975
Intangible assets:
Customer relationships		154
Goodwill		304
Covenant not to compete		460
Total intangibles	$	918

Management considers that sum-of-the-years digits best reflects the pattern in which the economic benefits of SMI and Viablelinks (as defined below) customer relationships will be realized.  At September 30, 2005, the Company increased its amortization of the Tabin (as defined below) customer relationships $50,000 in recognition of impairment of certain customer relationships.

      

                  F - 22              

    

In prior fiscal years, in addition to the transactions described above, the Company made the following acquisitions:

October 11, 2002	Tabin Corporation ("Tabin")
October 01, 2004	Viablelinks, Inc. ("Viablelinks")

At September 30, 2007, amortization of customer relationships for current and future years is as follows (in thousands):

	Tabin		Viablelinks		SMI		Ovex		Total

The following unaudited pro forma consolidated financial information reflects the results of operations for the two years ended September 30, 2006 as if the acquisitions of Ovex and SMI had occurred on October 1, 2004   Pro form results for the year ended September 30, 2007 is not presented because both companies were fully integrated with the Company’s operations during that period.  (In thousands, except per share data):

11 LITIGATION

In January 2007, in order to avoid the cost of ongoing litigation, the Company reached a settlement agreement with Softchoice Corporation (“Softchoice”) relating to an action that was brought against the Company in January 2006 in the Los Angeles County Superior Court, Case No. SC088295, seeking general and special damages of an unspecified amount as well as punitive damages from the economic harm caused by the hiring of five former employees of Softchoice.   Terms of the settlement agreement stipulate that a payment to Softchoice of $212,500 be made.   The full amount of the settlement payment was recognized in the March 2007 quarterly financial statements.   The settlement was a business decision and in entering into the settlement, the Company made no admission of liability

In January 2007, in order to avoid the cost of ongoing litigation, the Company negotiated a settlement agreement with Websense, Inc., a former supplier to Software Medium, Inc. (“SMI”) relating to an action that was brought against the Company in February 2006 in the San Diego County Superior Court, Case No. GIC859375.  Websense, Inc. ("Websense") was the holder of a SMI secured promissory note and alleged that in the Company’s acquisition of the assets of SMI and its subsidiary, Veridyn LLC, via an asset purchase agreement, that the Company was liable for the debts of SMI as a successor.    Under the settlement agreement, the Company will pay Websense, Inc. the sum of one dollar ($1) and in addition has agreed to purchase one hundred thousand dollars ($100,000) of software published by Websense, Inc. and will become an authorized vendor of its products.  The settlement was a business decision and in entering into the settlement, the Company made no admission of liability

In July 2006, Church Gardens, LLC, the current owner of the Company's formerly leased configuration facility in Ontario, California, filed suit against the Company in San Bernardino County Superior Court, Case No. RCV096518.  The complaint centers on certain furniture, fixtures, equipment and leasehold improvements that were sold to, and leased back from the Company , by plaintiff’s predecessor in 1999 when the Company still occupied its former leased configuration facility in Ontario, California. The plaintiff alleges, among other things, that a portion of the leased-back property was sold, destroyed, altered, or removed from the premises, and demands both an inspection and an accounting of the property remaining and for the court to provide damages to the extent that the Company may have breached its contract.  The Company disputes the allegations and believes that any property loss liability under the lease provisions would be limited to the $75,000 that has already been accrued in the financial statements.

In February 2007, the Company filed a cross-complaint against Church Gardens LLC. The cross-complaint asks that the Company's $90,720 security deposit be returned with interest.  In addition, the Company claims that Church Gardens LLC engaged in unfair business practices in retaining the security deposit and in not allowing the removal of certain personal property that the Company owned and that Church Gardens LLC engaged in unlawful conversion of certain property belonging to the Company.  The Company also asks the court to grant declaratory relief as to the Company's  actions in its attempts to preserve the disputed property pending a judicial determination of rights.  The Company also seeks recovery of possession of its personal property and injunctive relief preventing the plaintiff from liquidating its property.

In January 2007, US Real Estate Consortium, the predecessor owner of the Company's former leased configuration facility in Ontario, California filed suit against the current owner, Church Gardens LLC, in San Bernardino County Superior Court, Case No. RCV100476.

In March 2007, the current owner, Church Gardens LLC, filed a cross-complaint against the Company and the former owner, US Real Estate Consortium, among others.  On May 31, 2007, the Company answered and cross-claimed against the current owner, Church Gardens, LLC.  On July 25, 2007, Church Gardens, LLC filed its answer to the first amended cross-complaint filed by us.  Both cases (RCV096518 and RCV100476) have now been consolidated for all purposes. 

Although the first case (RCV096518) was originally filed in July 2006, no trial date in the now consolidated case has been set. There has been substantial discovery, and substantial law and motion practice to date.  The Company is contesting the consolidated case vigorously, and intends to continue doing so.

There are various other claims and litigation proceedings in which the Company is involved in the ordinary course of business.  The Company accrues for costs related to contingencies when a loss is probable and the amount is reasonably determinable.  While the outcome of the foregoing and other claims and proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, after consulting with legal counsel, management does not believe that it is reasonably possible that any ongoing or pending litigation will result in an unfavorable outcome to the Company or have a material adverse affect on the Company’s business, financial position and results of operations or cash flows.

The lessor of the leased corporate headquarters, Dominguez Channel, LLC, is 85% owned by the Chief Executive Officer of the Company and four members of his immediate family, two of whom are employees and another a director of the Company.
