 12.  Financial Instruments and Risk Management


a)

Fair Value of Financial Instruments


The Company’s financial instruments consist of receivables, bank demand loan, accounts payable, long-term debt, and amounts due to shareholders.  Except as noted below, it is management’s opinion that the Company is not exposed to significant interest, currency or credit risks arising from the financial instruments.  The fair value of these financial instruments approximates their carrying value due to their short-term maturity or capacity of prompt liquidation.


b)

Credit Risk


The Company is subject to credit risk.  To mitigate this, the Company actively manages and monitors its receivables and obtains security where warranted.


c)

Foreign Exchange Risk


The Company purchases goods for resale that are denominated in U.S. dollars and it earns its revenues in Canadian dollars.  As such, it is subject to risk due to fluctuations in the U.S./Canadian exchange rate.  The Company does not enter into derivative financial instruments to mitigate its exposure to foreign currency risk.


d)

Interest Rate Risk


Interest on the Company's bank indebtedness and long-term debt is variable based on the lenders' prime rates.  This exposes the Company to the risk of changing interest rates that may have an effect on its earnings in future periods.  The Company does not use derivative instruments to reduce its exposure to interest rate risk.


e)

Market Risk


The Company received a cease trade order from the British Columbia Securities Commission on July 10, 2006 as a result of the Company’s auditors not providing their audit opinion letter on the audit of the February 28, 2006 year end financial statements.  The Company has since retained new auditors and is in the process of filing the requisite documentation to have the cease trade order removed.  As for the Company’s OTCBB listing, the year end audited financial statements and the Form 20F annual report were both filed on time.




13.  Economic dependence


Approximately 89% (February 28, 2006 - 86%) of sales are from products provided by the Company's largest supplier with the balance being comprised of other products, patient monitoring services and sales from the Company’s first retail store in Bellevue, WA.

(Note 8)


e)

Management’s Discussion and Analysis


DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS (continued)


In order to improve competitiveness in the field of nursing call and emergency alert systems, the Company has announced the signing of an agreement to acquire the distribution rights to Ultra Wideband (UWB) technology.  In addition to UWB technology, the Company also announced the signing an exclusive licensing agreement with V, L.L.C. to apply Nemesysco’s Layered Voice Analysis (LVA) software technology into the North American residential and residential care security market.  LVA is a computer software-based technology that analyzes the frequencies of the sound waves of a human voice and provides an emotional/psychological analysis of the speaker.  As part of this development program, the Company intends to develop a proprietary hardware telecommunications device with a voice component to incorporate the LVA technology within its existing Integrated Emergency Response (IER) monitoring system and within a general home security system.  The Company will combine the LVA software technology with its hardware platform development efforts to enable a fully integrated telecommunications-based security product for both commercial senior care facility and home residential security applications.


In order to achieve these goals, the Company is attempting to complete financings previously announced and negotiate additional financings.  The Company trades on the OTC Bulletin Board under the symbol (AHCKF).


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION


Results of Operations


Sales for the reporting period ended August 31, 2006 consisted of scooters, power chairs, scooter accessories, daily living aids, cushions, disposables, and IER monitoring services.  Sales of scooters and scooter accessories are seasonal with the peak season running from May to September.  Sales for the six months ended August 31, 2006 increased by 13% to $4,817,477 as compared to $4,237,478 for the same period in the previous year.  Sales for the three months ended August 31, 2006 also increased by 13% to $2,529,421 as compared to $2,220,403 for the same period in the previous year.  This increase is a result of higher volume of existing products and sales from the IER monitoring services.  Sales from the Company’s retail store were negligible for the reporting period.  For the six months ended August 31, 2006, 89% of the total sales were from scooters, power chairs and scooter accessories.   


Gross profit increased by 6% from $1,013,483 from $950,940 for the three months ended August 31, 2006 and by 11% from $1,821,592 to $2,032,363 for the six months ended August 31, 2006 as compared to similar periods in the previous year.  Gross profit as a percentage of sales was 42% for the six months ended August 31, 2006 as compared to 43% for the same period last year.  For the three months ended August 31, 2006, gross profit as a percentage of sales was 40% as compared to the same period in the previous year.  The decline in gross profit as a percentage of sales is due competitive pricing offered to customers in order to increase volume during the peak season of May to September.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis



Results of Operations (continued)


Selling expenses as a percentage of net sales for the three and six months ended August 31, 2006 was 12% and 13%, respectively, compared to 11% and 12% in the same periods last year.  The overall dollar amount increased by $52,879 for the quarter and $101,108 for the year to date compared to the same periods a year ago.  The year to date increase is comprised of higher advertising, delivery and salaries costs and if off-set by lower travel and communication costs.  Advertising and salaries costs are higher due to the addition of the retail store in Bellevue, WA that opened in November 2005.  


General and administrative costs as a percentage of net sales for the three and six months ended August 31, 2006 were 19% and 18%, respectively, compared to 18% and 17% in the same periods a year ago.  The overall dollar amount increased by $78,820 for the quarter and $156,193 for the year to date compared to the same periods a year ago.  The increase in insurance, office, and occupancy costs of $35,668 for the six months ended August 31, 2006 are due to the opening of the retail outlet in the United States.  Interest and bank charges increased by $61,047 for the six months ended August 31, 2006.  Of this increase, $24,984 is interest paid on additional long-term debt funds totaling $500,000 received in November 2005 from the Business Development Bank of Canada.  The balance of the increase is due to the increase in the existing bank credit facility with the Royal Bank of Canada.  Salaries and consulting costs increased by $35,589 year to date as a result of additional programming staff hired for the development of the Layered Voice Analysis (“LVA”) technology and the integration of this technology with the Company’s existing IER monitoring system.  Public company related costs of transfer agent and regulatory and travel costs increased by $29,395 for the six months ended August 31, 2006 as compared to the same period last year as the Company focused its efforts in attracting investor interest.


Operating income decreased by $69,156 for the quarter ended August 31, 2006 to $223,347 compared to $292,503 for the same quarter last year.  Year to date operating income decreased by $46,530 to $545,575 as compared to $592,105 for the same period last year.  The quarter to date and year to date increase is decrease is primarily attributable to the higher salaries, office, and occupancy costs of the Company’s retail store in Bellevue, WA.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis



Financial Condition


The company continued to finance its operations principally through cash generated by the business, credit facility from a Canadian chartered bank, shareholder advances and funds obtained from the Term debt.  The company’s bank borrowings and the Term debt contain certain covenants with respect to tangible net worth, ratio of tangible net worth, working capital, and ratio of current assets to current liabilities.  As of August 31, 2006, the company was in compliance with all covenant requirements.  The Company is continuing to attempt to recover from the damages that it experienced as a result of the unnecessary and improper delays in the completion of the Reverse Takeover, amongst other damages, instigated by the TSX Venture Exchange and the corresponding lawsuit..  To this end, the company is actively pursuing other subordinate debt and equity financing arrangements.  


As at August 31, 2006, total working capital for the Company was $1,574,195 compared to $715,511 as at February 28, 2006, representing an increase of $858,684.  The increase in accounts receivable of $781,169 is a reflection of higher sales during the reporting.  The increase in accounts receivable was off-set by a decrease in payables and accruals.


Year to date operating activities resulted in cash outflows of $455,712 compared to outflows of $104,324 for the same period last year.  This increase in cash outflows is attributable to changes in working capital accounts of accounts receivable, inventory, prepaids, and accounts payable.


Year to date cash flows utilized by investing activities were $25,642 compared to $16,754 for the same period in the previous year.  This increase is comprised primarily of investment in store fixtures for the retail outlet and the investment in the further software development of the IER monitoring system.


Year to date cash flows from financing activities were $481,354 compared to $121,078 for the same period last year.  These cash flows were comprised of proceeds from the bank credit facility and advances from the shareholders of $375,000 and were offset by the principal repayment of the long-term debt.

Consolidated Financial Statements for the Six Months Ended August 31, 2006

Management’s Discussion and Analysis



Risk Management


The Company is exposed to a variety of risk areas.  These include market conditions, financing costs, competition and the ability to expand.


The sale of certain products is subject to reimbursement polices by various government agencies such as ADP in Ontario and AADL in the Alberta.  While the total sales in these regions are not significant in comparison to sales in other provinces, there is a risk that changes in reimbursement policies could affect future growth in sales.  The Company purchases goods for resale that are denominated in U.S. dollars and it earns its revenues in Canadian dollars.  As such, it is subject to risk due to fluctuations in the U.S./Canadian exchange rate.  The Company does not enter into derivative financial instruments to mitigate its exposure to foreign currency risk.


Interest on the Company’s bank indebtedness and long-term debt is variable based on the lenders’ prime rates.  This exposes the Company to the risk of changing interest rages that may have an effect on its earnings in future periods.  The Company does not use derivative instruments to reduce its exposure to interest rate risk.


The Company faces risk from its competition.  In order to mitigate this risk, the Company is attempting to diversify its product and service offerings, maintaining and strengthening its long-term relationships with new and existing customers.  


The Company’s future growth is dependent on its ability to secure additional financing.  Although management is actively pursuing other financing arrangements, there is no assurance that the Company will be able to close these financing deals.


The Company received a cease trade order from the British Columbia Securities Commission on July 10, 2006 as a result of the Company’s auditors not providing their audit opinion letter on the February 28, 2006 financial statements.  The Company has since retained new auditors and is in the process of filing the requisite documentation to have the cease trade order removed.  As for the Company’s OTCBB listing, the year end audited statements and the Form 20F annual report were both filed on time.
