NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 2006
(In thousands, except per share data)
ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS
CAM Commerce Solutions, Inc. (the Company) was incorporated in California in 1983, and reincorporated in Delaware in 1987. The Company designs, develops, markets and services highly integrated retailing and payment processing solutions for small to medium size traditional and eCommerce businesses based on its open architecture software. These integrated solutions include inventory management, point of sale, accounting, credit and debit card processing, Internet sales, gift card and customer loyalty programs, and extensive management reporting. Payment processing services are provided on a transaction based business model.
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Presentation of Condensed Financial Statements
The accompanying financial statements of the Company as of and for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005 are unaudited. They have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of such financial statements have been included. Such adjustments consisted only of normal recurring items. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year. The condensed financial statements and notes are presented as permitted by Form 10-Q and, therefore, should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2005.
Cash Equivalents
Cash equivalents represent highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less.
Marketable Securities
All investment securities are considered to be available-for-sale and are carried at fair value. Management determines the classification at the time of purchase and re-evaluates its appropriateness at each balance sheet date. The Company’s marketable securities at June 30, 2006 and September 30, 2005 consisted of debt instruments and certificates of deposit that bear interest at various rates and mature in two years or less. The net unrealized losses on securities available-for-sale at June 30, 2006 and September 30, 2005 were ($12) and ($18), respectively. There were no realized gains (losses) for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005.
Accounts Receivable and Allowance For Doubtful Accounts
The Company has accounts receivable from customers who were given extended payment terms for goods and services rendered. Extended payment terms are generally provided only to established relationship customers in good credit standing, and generally represent net 30 day terms. Payment for goods and services are typically due with an initial deposit payment upon signing the purchase agreement, with the balance due upon the delivery.
Management evaluates accounts receivables that are 30 days past due the payment terms on a regular basis to charge off any accounts deemed uncollectible at the time. An allowance for doubtful accounts is maintained for estimated losses resulting from the inability of customers to make required payments.
Concentrations of Credit Risk
The Company sells its products primarily to small-to-medium size retailers. Credit is extended based on an evaluation of the customer’s financial condition, and collateral is generally not required. Credit losses have traditionally been minimal and such losses have been within management’s expectations.

Revenue Recognition Policy
The Company’s revenue recognition policy is significant because revenue is a key component of results of operations. In addition, revenue recognition determines the timing of certain expenses such as commissions. Specific guidelines are followed to measure revenue, although certain judgments affect the application of our revenue policy. The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Statement of Position 97-2 (SOP 97-2), “Software Revenue Recognition,” as amended and interpreted by Statement of Position 98-9, “Modification of SOP 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition, With Respect to Certain Transactions,” and Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104 (SAB 104), “Revenue Recognition.” SAB 104 provides further interpretive guidance for public companies on the recognition, presentation, and disclosure of revenue in financial statements.
The Company derives revenue from the sale of computer hardware, licensing of computer software, post-contract support (PCS), installation and training services, and payment processing services. System revenue from hardware sales and software licensing is recognized when a system purchase agreement has been signed, the hardware and software has been shipped, there are no uncertainties surrounding product acceptance, the pricing is fixed and determinable, and collection is considered probable. If a sales transaction contains an undelivered element, the vendor-specific objective evidence (VSOE) of fair value of the undelivered element is deferred and the revenue recognized once the element is delivered. The undelivered elements are primarily installation and training services. Revenue related to these services are deferred and recognized when the services have been provided. VSOE of fair value for installation and training services are based upon standard rates charged since those services are always sold as a separate

option and priced independently. Installation and training services are separately priced, are generally available from other suppliers and are not essential to the functionality of the software products. Payments for the Company’s hardware and software are typically due with an initial deposit payment upon signing the system purchase agreement, with the balance due upon delivery, although established relationship customers in good credit standing receive thirty day payment terms. VSOE of fair value for PCS is the price the customer is required to pay since it is sold as a separate option and priced independently. PCS services are billed on a monthly basis and recorded as revenue in the applicable month, or on an annual basis with the revenue being deferred and recognized ratably over the support period. If an arrangement includes multiple elements, the fees are allocated to the various elements based upon VSOE of fair value, as described above.
The Company recognizes payment processing revenues in the period the service is performed. Revenues are estimated based on the accumulation of sufficient historical information required to analyze trends and formulate a reasonable estimate. The significant historical information required to formulate a reliable estimate are the total dollar volume of credit card transactions processed and the related revenue for these credit card transactions.
Segments
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 131, “Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information” (SFAS 131), established standards for the way that public business enterprises report selected financial information about operating segments in annual and interim financial statements and significant foreign operations. Because the Company operates in one operating segment and has no significant foreign operations, no additional reporting is required under SFAS 131.
Recently Issued Accounting Announcements
On December 16, 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004), “Share-Based Payment” (SFAS 123R) which replaces SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation”, supersedes Accounting Principles Board Opinion (APB) No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” and amends SFAS No. 95, “Statement of Cash Flows”. Generally, the approach in SFAS 123R is similar to the approach described in SFAS 123. However, SFAS 123R requires all share-based payments, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the financial statements based on their fair values (i.e., pro forma disclosure is no longer an alternative to financial statement recognition). As further discussed in the Share-Based Compensation Note, the Company adopted SFAS 123R effective October 1, 2005 using the modified prospective method. The application of this method is described below under the subheading “Share-Based Compensation” in these Notes to Unaudited Condensed Financial Statements.
Intangible Assets
The Company capitalizes costs incurred to develop new marketable software and enhance the Company’s existing systems software. Costs incurred in creating the software are charged to expense when incurred as research and development until technological feasibility has been established through the development of a detailed program design. Once technological feasibility has been established, software production costs are capitalized and reported at the lower of amortized cost or net realizable value.
License agreements and capitalized software costs are amortized on the straight-line method over estimated useful lives ranging from three to five years. Amortization of capitalized software costs commences when the products are available for general release to customers.

Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications have been made to the fiscal 2005 financial statements to conform to the fiscal 2006 presentation.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with United States GAAP requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of net revenue and expenses during the reporting period. The Company regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions related to revenue recognition, receivables and inventory, capitalized software, allowances for doubtful accounts, intangible asset valuations, deferred income tax asset valuation allowances, accounting for share-based compensation related to SFAS123R, and other contingencies. The estimates and assumptions are based on historical experience and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. To the extent there are material differences between the Company’s estimates and the actual results, the Company’s future results of operations will be affected.
Shipping and Handling
Shipping and handling fees and costs are included in the Statement of Income under the line items titled “Net hardware, software and installation revenues” and “Cost of hardware, software and installation revenues.”
Net Income Per Share
Basic net income per share is based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for each period presented. Diluted net income per share is based upon the weighted average number of common shares and common equivalent shares outstanding for each period presented. Common equivalent shares include stock options assuming conversion under the treasury stock method. Common equivalent shares are excluded from diluted net income per share if their effect is anti-dilutive. Options outstanding for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, which were excluded from the diluted net income per share computation because their effect is anti-dilutive, were as follows.

Share-Based Compensation
The Company adopted the Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 123 (revised 2004), “Share-Based Payment” (“SFAS 123R”) effective October 1, 2005. Prior to October 1, 2005, the Company followed the disclosure-only provisions of SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” (SFAS 123), as amended by SFAS No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation – Transition and Disclosure,” and, accordingly, accounted for its stock-based compensation plans using the intrinsic value method under Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” (“APB 25”) and related interpretations.
SFAS 123R requires share-based payments, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the Statement of Income as an expense, based on their grant date fair values with such fair values amortized over the estimated service period. The Company elected to utilize the modified prospective method for the transition to SFAS 123R. Under the modified prospective method, SFAS 123R applies to all awards granted or modified after the date of adoption. In addition, under the modified prospective method, compensation expense will be recognized for all stock-based compensation awards granted prior to, but not yet vested as of October 1, 2005, based on grant-date fair values estimated in accordance with the original provisions of SFAS 123.
On November 10, 2005, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued FASB Staff Position No. FAS 123(R)-3, “Transition Election Related to Accounting for the Tax Effects of Share-Based Payment Awards” (the FSP). The FSP provides that companies may elect to use a specified “short-cut” method to calculate the historical pool of windfall tax benefits upon adoption of SFAS 123R. The Company has elected to use this short-cut method to calculate the historical pool of windfall tax benefits, and has elected to use one accounting pool for the windfall tax benefits related to employees and non-employees on a combined basis.
No stock-based employee compensation cost was recognized in the Statement of Income for the year ended September 30, 2005 (including the three-month and nine-month periods ended June 30, 2005), as all options granted under those plans had an exercise price equal to the market value for the underlying common stock on the date of grant. In accordance with the modified prospective method of transition to SFAS 123R, prior periods were not restated to reflect the impact of adopting the new standard.
Under SFAS 123 the Company based its expense calculation for the stock compensation pro forma footnote disclosure on actual forfeitures; however, SFAS 123R requires an estimate of forfeitures be used in the calculation. Upon adoption of SFAS 123R the Company changed its methodology to include an estimate of forfeitures.
Share-based compensation expense included in expenses and the related tax benefits for the three months ended June 30, 2006 were $46 and $18, respectively, and for the nine months ended June 30, 2006 were $126 and $49, respectively. No share-based compensation was capitalized for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005. The impact of share-based compensation on basic and diluted earnings per share for the three months ended June 30, 2006 was $0.01 and $0.01, respectively, and for the nine-month period was $0.02 and $0.02, respectively. In addition, in connection with the adoption of SFAS 123R, net cash provided by operating activities decreased and net cash provided by financing activities increased in the first nine months of fiscal 2006 by $642 related to excess tax benefits from exercise of stock-based awards.
Prior to the adoption of SFAS 123R, the Company presented all tax benefits of deductions resulting from the exercise of stock options as operating cash flows in the Statement of Cash Flows. SFAS 123R requires

the cash flows related to the tax benefits resulting from tax deductions in excess of the compensation cost recognized for those options (excess tax benefits) to be classified as financing cash flows. The $642 excess tax benefit classified as a financing cash inflow would have been classified as an operating cash inflow if the Company had not adopted SFAS 123R.
The following table illustrates the impact of adopting SFAS 123R and the impact of applying the original provisions of SFAS 123 as if the Company were to account for share-based compensation under APB 25:

In 1993, the stockholders of the Company approved the Company’s 1993 Stock Option Plan (the “1993 Plan”) under which nonstatutory options may be granted to key employees and individuals who provide services to the Company, at an exercise price not less than the fair market value of the stock at the date of grant, and expire ten years from the date of grant. The options are exercisable based on vesting periods as determined by the Board of Directors. The 1993 Plan allowed for the issuance of an aggregate of 1,200 shares of the Company’s common stock. The 1993 Plan had a term of ten years. There have been 1,200 options granted under the 1993 Plan as of June 30, 2006. The Company currently has 212 shares reserved for issuance related to the options that remain outstanding under the 1993 Plan.
In April 2000, the Company’s Board of Directors approved the Company’s 2000 Stock Option Plan (the “2000 Plan”) under which nonstatutory options may be granted to key employees and individuals who provide services to the Company, at an exercise price not less than the fair market value of the stock at the

date of grant, and expire ten years from the date of grant. The options are exercisable based on vesting periods as determined by the Board of Directors. The plan allows for the issuance of an aggregate of 750 shares of the Company’s common stock. The term of the plan is unlimited in duration. There have been 545 options granted under the plan as of June 30, 2006. The Company has 519 shares reserved for issuance related to the options that remain outstanding under the 2000 Plan.
Outstanding unvested stock options generally vest ratably over four years based upon continuous service. The Company accounts for these grants as single grants and recognizes share-based compensation cost using the straight-line method.
The Company’s stock option plans provide for accelerated vesting of unvested options in the event of a change in control. A change in control provision meets the criteria of a performance condition under SFAS 123R. All outstanding unvested options at June 30, 2006 are subject to accelerated vesting under this provision.
A summary of changes in the stock option plans for the nine months ended June 30, 2006 is as follows:

For the nine-month period ended June 30, 2006, the amount of cash received from the exercise of stock options was $514 and the related tax benefit was $642.
For options exercised during the nine-month periods ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, newly issued shares were issued.
The Company uses the Black-Scholes-Merton option valuation model to determine the weighted average fair value of options. The Company utilizes assumptions on expected life, risk-free rate, expected volatility, and dividend yield to determine such values. The following assumptions were used to determine the weighted-average fair value for the options granted in the three and nine months ended June 30, 2005;

15

(In thousands, except per share data)
risk-free rate of 4.0%; volatility factor of 0.394; no dividend yield; and a weighted-average life of six years. The Company did not disclose assumptions for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2006 because there were no grants in these periods. If grants were to occur, the expected life of options granted would be derived from historical data on employee exercise and post-vesting termination behavior. The risk-free rate would be based on treasury instruments in effect at the time of grant whose terms are consistent with the expected life of the Company’s stock options. Expected volatility would be based on historical volatility of the Company’s stock. The dividend yield would be based on historical experience and expected future changes.
A summary of the grant-date fair value and intrinsic value information for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005 is as follows:

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
(All dollar amounts in thousands)
CAUTIONARY STATEMENT
You should read the following discussion and analysis with our Unaudited Condensed Financial Statements and related Notes thereto contained elsewhere in this report. We urge you to carefully review and consider the various disclosures made in this report and in our other reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
The section entitled “Forward Looking Statements” set forth below, the section entitled “Rick Factors” in our report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30,2005, and similar discussions in our other SEC filings, discuss some of the important risk factors that may affect our business, results of operations and financial condition. You should carefully consider those risks, in addition to the other information in this report, our 10-K report, and in our other filings with the SEC, before deciding to purchase, hold or sell our common stock.
OVERVIEW
We design, develop, market and service highly integrated retailing and payment processing solutions for small to medium size traditional and eCommerce businesses based on our open architecture software. These integrated solutions include inventory management, point of sale, accounting, credit and debit card processing, Internet sales, gift card and customer loyalty programs, and extensive management reporting. Payment processing services are provided on a transaction based business model.
We offer several turn-key retailing systems that consist of software, hardware, installation, training, technical support services and web hosting services. Our systems, known as CAM32, Profit$, RetailSTAR, Retail ICE and Microbiz offer the ability to obtain: (i) automated pricing of each item; (ii) billing for charge account customers; (iii) printing of a customer invoice; (iv) tracking of inventory count on an item by item basis; (v) computation of gross profit, dollars and/or percentage of each item; and (vi) tracking of sales by clerk and department by day and/or month. In addition, our systems provide full management reporting including zero sales reports, inventory ranking, overstock and understock, sales analysis, inventory valuation (last cost, average cost and retail) and other reports. The systems can also provide integrated or interfaced accounting functions including accounts receivable, accounts payable, and general ledger.
We also provide payment processing services through our X-Charge software and a third party credit card payment processor. X-Charge is a payment processing software program that is integrated with our point of sale software. X-Charge generates revenues for us based on sales transaction payment processing services provided to our customers. Typically, the payments being processed are credit card transactions.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of our financial statements and reported amounts of net revenue and expenses during the reporting period. We regularly evaluate estimates and assumptions related to revenue recognition, receivables and inventory, capitalized software, allowances for doubtful accounts, intangible asset valuations, deferred income tax asset valuation allowances, accounting for share-based compensation related to SFAS123R, and other contingencies. The estimates and assumptions are based on historical experience and on various other factors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. To the extent there are material differences between our estimates and the actual results, our future results of operations will be affected.
We believe the following critical accounting policies require us to make significant judgments and estimates in the preparation of our financial statements:

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
(All dollar amounts in thousands)
Revenue Recognition
We derive revenue from the sale of computer hardware, licensing of computer software, post-contract customer support, installation and training services, and payment processing services. System revenue from hardware sales and software licensing is recognized when a system purchase agreement has been signed, the hardware and software has been shipped, there are no uncertainties surrounding product acceptance, the pricing is fixed and determinable, and collection is considered probable. If a sales transaction contains an undelivered element, the vendor-specific objective evidence (VSOE) of fair value of the undelivered element is deferred and the revenue recognized once the element is delivered. The undelivered elements are primarily installation and training services. Revenue related to these services is deferred and recognized when the services have been provided. VSOE of fair value for installation and training services are based upon standard rates charged since those services are always sold as a separate option and priced independently. Installation and training services are separately priced, are generally available from other suppliers and are not essential to the functionality of the software products. Payments for our hardware and software are typically due with an initial deposit payment upon signing the system purchase agreement, with the balance due upon delivery, although established relationship customers in good credit standing receive thirty day payment terms. VSOE of fair value for post-contract support (PCS) is the price the customer is required to pay since it is sold as a separate option and priced independently. PCS services are billed on a monthly basis and recorded as revenue in the applicable month, or on an annual basis with the revenue being deferred and recognized ratably over the support period. If an arrangement includes multiple elements, the fees are allocated to the various elements based upon VSOE of fair value, as described above.
We recognize payment processing revenues in the period the service is performed. Revenues are estimated based on the accumulation of sufficient historical information required to analyze trends and formulate a reasonable estimate. The significant historical information required to formulate a reliable estimate are the total dollar volume of credit card transactions processed and the related revenue for these credit card transactions.
Receivables
We have accounts receivable from customers who were given extended payment terms for goods and services rendered. Extended payment terms are generally provided only to established relationship customers in good credit standing, and generally represent net 30 day terms. Payment for goods and services are typically due with an initial deposit payment upon signing the purchase agreement, with the balance due upon delivery.
An allowance for doubtful accounts is maintained for estimated losses resulting from the inability of customers to make required payments. If the financial condition of our customers was to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, additional allowances could be required. Actual losses have traditionally been minimal and within our expectations.
Inventory
We write down inventory for estimated obsolescence equal to the difference between the cost of inventory and the estimated realizable value based upon assumptions about future demand and market conditions. If actual market conditions are less favorable than those projected by us, additional inventory write-downs could be required. Historically inventory write-downs have been minimal and within our expectations.
Capitalized Software
We capitalize costs incurred to develop new marketable software and enhance our existing systems software. Costs incurred in creating the software are expensed when incurred as research and development expense until technological feasibility has been established through the development of a detailed program

design. Once technological feasibility has been established, software development costs are capitalized and reported at the lower of amortized cost or net realizable value.
Impairment of Intangible Assets
The value of our intangible assets could be impacted by future adverse changes such as (i) any future declines in our operating results, and (ii) any failure to meet our future performance projections. An annual impairment review will be performed during the fourth quarter of each fiscal year or more frequently if indicators of impairment exist. In the process of the annual impairment review, we use the income approach methodology of valuation that includes the undiscounted cash flow method to determine the fair value of our assets. Significant management judgment is required in the forecast of future operating results that are used in the discounted cash flow method of valuation. The estimates used are consistent with the plans and estimates that we use to manage our business. It is reasonably possible, however, that certain of our products will not gain or maintain market acceptance, which could result in estimates of anticipated future net revenue differing materially from those used to assess the recoverability of these assets. In that event, revenue and cost forecasts would not be achieved, and we could incur additional impairment charges.
Deferred Taxes
We utilize the liability method of accounting for income taxes as set forth in SFAS No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes.” Prior to fiscal 2004, we recorded a valuation allowance to reduce our deferred tax assets to the amount that we believed was more likely than not to be realized. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2004, the valuation allowance was reversed based on our belief that sufficient future income from operations is expected to be able to recognize the net deferred tax assets. In assessing the need for a valuation allowance, we consider all positive and negative evidence, including projected future taxable income, and recent financial performance.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
(All dollar amounts in thousands, except in reference to the number of X-Charge accounts and resellers)
Significant Trends
Our X-Charge payment processing revenues continue to produce record results. X-Charge payment processing revenues represent our largest revenue source for the third quarter ended June 30, 2006. For the three and nine months ended June 30, 2006, X-Charge payment processing revenues increased 53% and 68%, respectively, compared to the same periods of fiscal 2005. As a result of the increase in the high margin, recurring X-Charge payment processing revenues, net income for the three-month and nine-month periods ended June 30, 2006 increased 36% and 75%, respectively, compared to the corresponding periods of fiscal 2005. During the third quarter of fiscal 2006, we installed a record of 1,036 new processing accounts, an increase of 24%, compared to the same period in fiscal 2005 when we installed 838 new processing accounts. We are getting more processing accounts through our reseller program. Our X-Charge reseller base grew during the third quarter of fiscal 2006 to 256 resellers who had earned residual income from their active X-Charge processing accounts, compared to 239 at the end of the second quarter.
At the same time, the system sales side of our business remains challenging and difficult to predict. System revenues for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2006 decreased 16% and 12%, respectively, compared to the same periods of prior fiscal year. Service revenues increased 2% for the three months ended June 30, 2006, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2005, resulting from an increase in i.Star web hosting service revenue. Service revenues were relatively flat for the nine months ended June 30, 2006, compared to the same period of fiscal 2005.
The results for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2006 included $46 and $126, respectively, in share-based compensation expense related to the adoption of SFAS123R in this fiscal year, which for the same periods of the prior fiscal year, this expense was not reflected on the financial statements but disclosed in the footnotes as required under previous accounting rules.
Revenues
We derive revenues from system sales, consisting of computer hardware, licensing of computer software, installation and training, post contract customer support service, and our payment processing service known as X-Charge. Net revenues, consisting of system revenues, service revenues and payment processing revenues, for the three months ended June 30, 2006 increased 8% to $6,770, from $6,271 for the three months ended June 30, 2005. For the nine months ended June 30, 2006, net revenues increased 10% to $20,239, from $18,323 for the comparable period of fiscal 2005.
System revenues were $2,651 and $8,563 for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2006, respectively, a decrease of 16% and 12%, respectively, from the revenues for the comparable fiscal 2005 periods. The decrease in system revenues was due to a decline in sales to both new and existing customers.
Service revenues increased 2% to $1,327 for the three months ended June 30, 2006 and relatively flat at $3,982 for the nine months ended June 30,2006, compared to the revenues for the same periods ended June 30, 2005. The increase in service revenues was primarily due to an increase in Star support contracts and i.Star web hosting service revenue.
Payment processing revenues increased to $2,792 for the three months ended June 30, 2006 from $1,824 for the three months ended June 30, 2005, an increase of $968, or 53%. Payment processing revenues increased 68%, or by $3,120, to $7,694 for the nine-month period ended June 30, 2006 from $4,574 for the corresponding period of prior fiscal year. The increase was due to the increase in the number of payment processing accounts from the corresponding periods of the prior fiscal year.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
(All dollar amounts in thousands)
Gross Margin
Gross margin on net revenues increased to 68% for the three months ended June 30, 2006 from 64% for the three-month period ended June 30, 2005. Gross margin on net revenues for the nine months ended June 30, 2006 increased to 67% from 62% for the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year. The increase in gross margin was due to the growth in X-Charge payment processing revenues, which have higher margins than system and service revenues.
Gross margin on system revenues decreased 47% for both the three and nine months ended June 30, 2006, compared to 50% and 49% for the same periods of fiscal 2005. The decline was related to a decrease in high margin software revenues. Gross margin on service revenues for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2006 decreased to 52% and 54%, respectively, compared to 55% and 58% for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2005, respectively, related to an increase in salaries expense. Gross margin on payment processing revenues for both the three and nine months ended June 30, 2006 was 95%, compared to 96% and 93% for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2005, respectively. Cost of payment processing revenues primarily consists of salaries, which are partially fixed in relation to payment processing revenues. Gross margin on payment processing revenues fluctuated mainly due to the change in payment processing revenues.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Salaries, sales commissions, marketing expenses, and rent expenses represent the largest components of selling, general and administrative expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $373 to $3,351, or 49% of net revenues, for the quarter ended June 30, 2006, compared to $2,978, or 47% of net revenues, for the three months ended June 30, 2005. For the nine months ended June 30, 2006, these expenses increased $1,160 to $10,010, or 49% of net revenues, compared to $8,850, or 48% of net revenues, for the nine months ended June 30, 2005. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased 13% for both the three and nine months ended June 30, 2006, compared to the corresponding periods of fiscal 2005. This increase was primarily due to the increase in commissions expense related to higher payment processing revenues, higher consulting fees paid for an accounting system upgrade, and higher payroll costs related to an increase in administrative and sales personnel required for X-Charge revenue growth.
Research and Development Expenses
Research and development expenses expressed as a percentage of revenues for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2006 was flat at 6%, compared to the same periods of fiscal 2005. Research and development expenses increased to $385 for the three-month period ended June 30, 2006, compared to $347 for the three months of the prior fiscal year. Research and development expenses were $1,148 for the nine months ended June 30, 2006 compared to $1,064 for the nine months ended June 30, 2005. The increase in expenses for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2006 was due to an increase in salaries. We continue to invest in the enhancements of new features for the existing software products of Retail Star and CAM32.
Income Taxes
Provision for income taxes was $441 for the three-month period and $1,140 for the nine-month period ended June 30, 2006, compared to $341 and $714 for the three-month and nine-month periods of fiscal 2005, respectively. The effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2006 was 39% and 38%, respectively, compared to 40% for both the three and nine months ended June 30, 2005. The effective tax rate for fiscal 2006 was lower due to a decrease in projected state tax rates and the recognition of tax credits. We expect to continue to incur provision for federal and state income taxes for the foreseeable future.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
(All dollar amounts in thousands)
Net Income
Our net income increased to $686 for the three months ended June 30, 2006 from $503 for the three months ended June 30, 2005, an increase of $183 or 36%. Our net income increased to $1,845 for the nine months ended June 30, 2006 from $1,055 for the corresponding period of fiscal 2005, an increase of $790 or 75%. The increase in net income for the three-month and nine-month periods ended June 30, 2006 was due primarily to an increase in payment processing revenues resulting from the addition of new payment processing accounts.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
In the last several years, we have financed our operations almost entirely from the cash flow generated from operations. Our cash and cash equivalents plus marketable securities totaled $22,794 on June 30, 2006, compared to $21,063 on September 30, 2005. The increase resulted primarily from cash provided from operating activities. During the nine months ended June 30, 2006, we generated $2,427 from operations, expended $385 for fixed assets and capitalized software development, used $3,967 for marketable securities investments and $1,475 for dividend payments, and received $2,799 from maturity of investments and $514 from stock options exercised. In the first nine months of fiscal 2005, we generated $2,444 from operations, used $487 for fixed assets and capitalized software development and $2,571 for marketable securities investments, and received $295 from stock options and warrants exercised.
In August 2005, the Board of Directors approved a new dividend policy, which pays stockholders a variable dividend based on the quarterly results. During the nine months ended June 30, 2006, the Board of Directors declared the following dividends:
                                 
Declaration Date   Per Share Dividend   Record Date     Total Amount   Payment Date  
November 16, 2005
  $ 0.14     January 3, 2006   $ 541     January 12, 2006
February 14, 2006
  $ 0.14     April 4, 2006   $ 549     April 14, 2006
May 2, 2006
  $ 0.14     July 5, 2006   $ 553     July 14, 2006
We did not pay dividends for quarterly results prior to the third quarter of fiscal 2005.
The decision to pay a dividend will be re-evaluated quarterly based on our earnings performance, regulatory limitations and other conditions which may affect our desire to pay dividends in the future and is subject to approval by the Board of Directors. Other than performance, there are no restrictions that currently materially limit or that we reasonably believe are likely to limit materially the future payment of dividends.
At June 30, 2006 cash and cash equivalents plus marketable securities made up 87% of our total current assets. Our current ratio at June 30, 2006 was 7.1. Management believes our existing working capital, coupled with funds generated from our operations will be sufficient to fund our presently anticipated working capital requirements for the foreseeable future.
Inflation has had no significant impact on our operations.
Contracts and Commitments
During the nine-month period ended June 30, 2006, there were no material changes outside of our ordinary business in our capital leases, operating leases, purchase obligations, or other obligations reflected on our balance sheet at June 30, 2006.

Examples of forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements concerning trends, projected revenue, expenses, gross profit, gross margin and income, our accounting estimates, assumptions and judgments, the impact of our adoption of new rules on accounting for goodwill and other intangible assets, and our future capital requirements. These forward-looking statements are based on our current expectation, estimates and projections about our industry, management’s beliefs, and certain assumptions made by us. Forward-looking statements can often be identified by words such as “anticipates,” “expects,” “intends,” “plans,” “predicts,” “believes,” “seeks,” “estimates,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “would,” “potential,” “continue,” “feels,” “outlook,” “forecast,” “optimistic,” and other similar expressions, including variations or negatives of these words.
In addition, any statements that refer to expectations, projections or other characterizations of future events or circumstances, including any underlying assumptions, are forward-looking statements. These statements speak only as of the date of this report and are based upon the information available to us at this time. Such information is subject to change. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict. Actual results could differ materially and adversely from those expressed in any forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including that our recent growth has been due primarily to the addition of new customers for our X Charge payment processing services and not increases in revenues from existing customers of those services; our original core business of computer system sales is in decline; the population of our target customers is declining; our stock is thinly traded; we face intense competition in the retail point of sale industry; availability and pricing of competing products; effectiveness of expense and cost control efforts; the ability to develop and deliver software products in a timely manner; the rate at which customers adopt our new products and services; the effect of new and emerging technologies; the ability to retain and hire key personnel needed to implement business and product plans; the level or orders received that can be shipped in any quarter; and other risks and factors detailed in our Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2005, filed with the SEC. Undue reliance should not be placed on these forward-looking statements, which are current only as of the date of this report. We undertake no obligation to revise or update publicly any forward-looking statement for any reason.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Market risk refers to the risk that a change in the level of one or more market factors such as interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, or equity prices will result in losses for a certain financial instrument or group of instruments. We are principally exposed to interest rate and credit risks. We are not exposed to foreign currency exchange rate risk. We do not use derivative instruments.
Interest Rate Risk
We maintain a portfolio of cash equivalents with original maturities of three months or less. Our investment securities portfolio consists of debt instruments and certificates of deposits all with current maturities of two years or less. Both portfolios are for investment, not trading purposes. Fluctuations in interest rates will have an impact on the market value of these investments. If interest rates were to decrease by 10%, the interest income would have decreased by $25. This risk is managed by investing in short term instruments of investment grade quality credit issuers and limiting the amount of investment in any one issuer. We have no current or long term debt or outstanding lines of credit.
Credit Risk
We are currently exposed to credit risk on credit extended to customers, which are mostly small-to-medium-size retailers. We actively monitor this risk through a variety of control procedures involving senior management. Historically, credit losses have been small and within our expectations.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
As of the end of the period covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)). Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of the end of such period, our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our most recently completed fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
