Financial Results for the Third Quarter of 2011 compared to the Third Quarter of 2010

On October 31, 2011, the Company effected a one-for-ten reverse split to shareholders of record as of October 31, 2011. All share and per share information has been retroactively adjusted to reflect the stock split.

Revenues for the quarter ended September 30, 2011 increased 121% to $891,576 as compared to $403,991 in the same period in fiscal 2010. Gross profit was $512,219, or 58% of revenues for the quarter ended September 30, 2011 as compared to $212,933, or 53% of revenues, for same period in fiscal 2010.

"The quarter ended September 30, 2011 proved to be the best third quarter in our history, stated Brian Balbirnie, Chief Executive Officer. "Not only did we increase our compliance and reporting business by over 350%, we also continued our path to improved margins and increased market share."

During the quarter the Company launched its Cloud-based compliance workflow system to the reseller community. Mr. Balbirnie went on to say, "Our Cloud-based workflow business is off to a tremendous start, we have a great group of filing agents, and resellers committed to our Cloud-based platform that will ultimately foster the growth in our back-office business to the corporate issuers."

The Company reported net income of $71,081, or $0.04 per share, during the third quarter of 2011 as compared to a loss of $40,772, or ($0.02) per share during the same period of fiscal 2010. The Company reported net income of $345,517, or $0.20 per share, during the nine month period ended September 30, 2011 as compared to $222,735, or $0.13 per share, during the same period of fiscal 2010.

During the first nine months of 2011, the Company began performing XBRL tagging services to corporate issuers. Furthermore, a large portion of the Company's clients are small reporting companies, who were required by the Securities and Exchange Commission to begin filing quarterly and annual reports in XBRL for all periods ending on or after June 15, 2011. Therefore, XRBL services contributed significantly to an increase in compliance and reporting revenue of 356% during the third quarter of 2011 as compared to the same period of 2010. The Company continued to achieve improvement in gross margin during the first nine of 2011 due largely to these services. "We are extremely pleased with the progression of our XBRL service offerings, and anticipate that we will continue to experience significant revenue growth and strong margins from this revenue source," said Wes Pollard, Chief Financial Officer.

The Company reported non-GAAP net income during the three months ended September 30, 2011 of $156,325, or $0.09 per share, as compared to non-GAAP net income of $10,311, or $0.01 per share, during the same period of 2010.
