See notes to consolidated financial statements 6 I-SECTOR CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (In thousands, except share and per share amounts) 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES I-Sector Corporation and subsidiaries ("I-Sector" or the "Company") is engaged in selling and supporting IP telephony solutions as well as related network infrastructure, their proprietary computer-telephony software, and performing remote-enabled managed services for the information and communication technology used by their customers: o Internetwork Experts, Inc. ("INX") is a network professional services and integration organization focused on delivering comprehensive Cisco-centric IP communications solutions to clients ranging from mid-size to large enterprises. IP communications solutions include design and implementation, ongoing support and applications enablement. Supporting practice areas include network architecture, security, and wireless. To provide these services INX employs highly trained IP communications consultants and network engineering staff, who are trained and experienced in both large, complex network infrastructure technology and IP communications technology. o Stratasoft, Inc. ("Stratasoft") creates and markets software related to the integration of computer and telephone technologies. This software is used by professional contact centers and other complex, high-volume telephony environments and is marketed under the trade name "Stratasoft". Stratasoft intends to use its computer telephony software development expertise to create and market new software products that enhance Cisco-centric IP telephony solutions. o Valerent, Inc. ("Valerent") provides information technology solutions that lower its client's expense by utilizing centralized, remote enabled computing management tools which predict, announce and manage service interruptions. Additionally Valerent provides customers with traditional computer services such as on-site and carry-in computer repair, application support, operating system and network migration services, turn-key outsourced IT helpdesk solutions, technical staff augmentation for IT helpdesk operations, and helpdesk solutions consulting services. The condensed consolidated financial statements presented herein as of and for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2003 and 2004 are unaudited; however, all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the periods covered have been made and are of a normal, recurring nature. The results of the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year. The consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2003 is derived from audited consolidated financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Although management believes the disclosures are adequate, certain information and disclosures normally included in the notes to the financial statements have been condensed or omitted as permitted by the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. These interim statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in I-Sector's 2003 Annual Report on Form 10-K. I-Sector's significant accounting policies are as follows: RECLASSIFICATIONS - Certain prior period amounts in the statements of cash flows presented herein have been reclassified to conform to current period presentation. USE OF ESTIMATES - The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted 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 amount of revenue and expense during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates. REVENUE RECOGNITION - I-Sector has a number of different revenue components, which vary between its reportable operating segments. Each reportable operating segment has more than one revenue component, and revenue is recognized differently for each component (or "stream") of revenue earned by operating segment. The material revenue streams earned by I-Sector, some of which are earned by more than one operating segment, and some by only one operating segment, are: Products Revenue. Three of I-Sector's operating segments earn revenue from product shipments. Product shipment revenue occurs when products manufactured by other parties are purchased and resold to a customer and such products are contracted for independently of material services. I-Sector recognizes revenue from product shipments when the product is shipped or delivered to the customer. In all three segments, the four criteria for 7 revenue recognition have been met because: (1) there are written, executed contracts, or in the case of INX and Valerent, in some situations there are binding purchase orders; (2) delivery has occurred or services have been rendered. Stratasoft, however, recognizes revenue on the percentage of completion method, as described below; (3) the price is fixed or determinable, and (4) collectibility is reasonably assured. Each of I-Sector's business segments perform credit research prior to extending credit. In Stratasoft's business segment, a substantial portion of the total contract price is received in cash or letter of credit when the unit is installed. Services Revenue. All of I-Sector's operating segments earn revenue from providing stand-alone services revenue. This revenue consist of billings for engineering and technician time, programming services, which are provided on either a hourly basis or a flat-fee basis, support contracts and the service component of maintenance and repair service ticket transactions. These services are contracted for separately from any product sale, and generally for contracts of short duration are recognized when the service is performed and when collection is reasonably assured. Two of I-Sector's segments sometimes earn agency fee revenue from various sources, the primary source of which is referring customers to other organizations for which an agency fee is received. This revenue is recognized at the earlier of when payment is received or when notification of amounts being due is received from the entity paying such agency fee and collectibility is reasonably assured. One of I-Sector's segments, INX, has certain fixed and flat fee services contracts that extend over three months or more, and are accounted for on the percentage of completion method of method of accounting. The percentage of revenue recognized in any particular period is determined on the basis of the relationship of the actual hours worked to estimated total hours to complete the contract. Revisions of the estimated hours to complete are reflected in the period in which the facts necessitating the revisions become known. When a contract indicates a loss, a provision is made for the total anticipated loss. Custom Project Revenue. One of I-Sector's segments, Stratasoft, earns revenue from projects that are recognized using the percentage of completion method of accounting for such revenue. The majority of Stratasoft's revenue consists of system sales in which it bundles its proprietary software, along with third-party hardware products and material related software customization services, installation, training services, warranty services and incidental post contract support ("PCS") together under a single contract with the customer. PCS is insignificant on such contracts for one year or less, and therefore, we have determined that the value of such PCS should not be unbundled from the project revenue as set forth in paragraph 59 of SOP 97-2. Accordingly, such PCS revenue is recognized together with the project revenue, and the estimated cost to provide the PCS is accrued. The value of the PCS is determinable within the contract, which defines the period that the PCS is granted and offers renewals at stated amounts, thereby defining the value of the PCS. The software customization, together with the hardware customization and integration, represent a significant modification, customization and/or production of the product and, therefore, the entire arrangement is required to be accounted for using the percentage of completion method of accounting pursuant to SOP 81-1. The percentage of revenue recognized in any particular period is determined principally on the basis of the relationship of the cost of work performed on the contract to estimated total costs. The percentage-of-completion method relies on estimates of total expected contract revenue and costs. We follow this method since reasonably dependable estimates of the revenue and costs applicable to various stages of a contract can be made. Revisions of estimates are reflected in the period in which the facts necessitating the revisions become known. When a contract indicates a loss, a provision is made for the total anticipated loss. The following reflects the amounts relating to uncompleted contracts at:
December 31, March 31, 2003 2004 ------------ --------- Costs incurred on uncompleted contracts .............. $ 1,019 $ 1,491 Estimated earnings ................................... 3,117 4,036 ------- ------- 4,136 5,527 Less: Billings to date ............................... 2,946 3,435 ------- ------- Total ................................................ $ 1,190 $ 2,092 ------- ------- Included in accompanying balance sheets under the following captions: Cost and estimated earnings in excess of billings .... $ 1,452 $ 2,204 Billings in excess of cost and estimated earnings .... (262) (112) ------- ------- Total ................................................ $ 1,190 $ 2,092 ------- -------
During March 2004, I-Sector's operating segment Stratasoft deferred $180 of revenue for software products sold on a note that was not due within twelve months of the note origination, and the related revenue was deferred at 8 March 31, 2004. Revenue from this sale will be recognized in the accounting periods that payments from the customer are received. VENDOR INCENTIVES - From time to time, the Company participates in programs provided by suppliers that enable it to earn incentives. These incentives are generally earned based upon sales volume, sales growth and customer satisfaction levels. The amounts earned under these programs are recorded as a reduction of cost of goods when earned and determinable. The amount of vendor incentives recognized can vary significantly between quarterly and annual periods. During the three-month period ended March 31, 2004, the Company recognized $622 in vendor incentives that relate to the six-month measurement period ended January 31, 2004. WARRANTY RESERVE - I-Sector records a warranty reserve related to certain software products sold by its Stratasoft subsidiary. That reserve is classified in accrued expenses and is amortized over the life of the warranty, which is generally twelve months, against actual warranty expenditures. This warranty reserve relates to the estimate of warranty obligations from sales of Stratasoft's call center telephony systems, which consist of Stratasoft's software, configured hardware components as well as telephone support relating to Stratasoft's software products. This liability amount has been consistently recorded within each period as a charge to cost of goods based upon five percent of period revenue. This percentage was based upon a review of the costs of providing the warranty work, which was initially performed in connection with the acquisition of the Stratasoft technology. Stratasoft incurs numerous types of costs related to the warranty work, which includes labor cost of technicians and programmers, hardware cost, the cost of developing and uploading software patches related to "bug fixes", telephone support, and hardware parts cost related to defective hardware sold as a part of a complete Stratasoft system. The majority of these costs are individually insignificant amounts for which the cost/benefit relationship does not warrant tracking, but which we periodically assess and continue to estimate at approximately five percent of Stratasoft sales. As the actual costs are not tracked, Stratasoft amortizes the recorded amounts to cost of goods over the average life of the contractual warranty period as costs are believed to be incurred ratably over the warranty period. The difference between the actual warranty costs incurred and the amount of amortization is not considered to be materially different. The following table depicts the activity in the warranty reserve:
Three Months Ended March 31, ------------------ 2004 ------------------ Balance, beginning of the period ........ $ 302 Additions to reserve .................... 90 Expenses offset against reserve ......... (97) ----- Balance, end of period .................. $ 295 -----
STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION - The Company has elected to account for stock-based compensation using the intrinsic value method of accounting in accordance with Accounting Principles Bulletin ("APB") No. 25 "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees". Under this method no compensation expense is recognized when the number of shares granted is known and the exercise price of the stock option is equal to or greater than the fair value of the common stock on the grant date. The Company has recorded no stock-based compensation associated with stock options granted to employees and directors in its consolidated statement of operations. I-Sector and its subsidiaries apply the fair value method as prescribed by SFAS No. 123, as interpreted and amended, for stock and stock options issued to non-employees and during the three month period ended March 31, 2004, recorded a $63 benefit. If compensation cost for all option issuances had been determined consistent with the fair value method, I-Sector's net income (loss) per share would have increased to the pro-forma amounts indicated below for the three month periods ended March 31, 2003 and 2004. 9
Three Months Ended March 31, ------------------------- 2003 2004 --------- --------- Basic and diluted: Net income (loss) as reported ......... $ (1,091) $ 39 Deduct: Total stock-based employee compensation determined under fair value based method for all awards, net of related tax effects ....................... 10 22 --------- --------- Pro forma net income (loss) ........... $ (1,101) $ 17 --------- --------- Earnings per share: Basic - as reported ................... $ (0.30) $ 0.01 Basic - pro forma ..................... $ (0.30) $ 0.00 Diluted - as reported ................. $ (0.30) $ 0.01 Diluted - pro forma ................... $ (0.30) $ 0.00
EARNINGS PER SHARE - Basic net income per share is computed on the basis of the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the periods. Diluted net income per share is computed based upon the weighted-average number of common shares plus the assumed issuance of common shares for all potentially dilutive securities using the treasury stock method (See Note 4). FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS - I-Sector's financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable for which the carrying values approximate fair values given the short-term maturity of the instruments. The carrying value of the Company's debt instruments approximate their fair value based on estimates of rates offered to the Company for instruments with the same maturity dates and security structures. ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS - In January 2003, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation 46 ("FIN 46"), "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities - An Interpretation of ARB No. 51". FIN 46 addresses consolidation by business enterprises of variable interest entities. This Interpretation applies immediately to variable interest entities created after January 31, 2003, and to variable interest entities in which an enterprise obtains an interest after that date. It applies in the first fiscal year or interim period beginning after June 15, 2003, to variable interest entities in which an enterprise holds a variable interest that it acquired before February 1, 2003. On December 17, 2003, the FASB to issued FIN 46(R), providing a deferral of the application of FIN 46 for interests held by public entities in a variable interest entity or potential variable interest entity until fiscal periods ending after March 15, 2004. The Company has assessed the impact of FIN 46 on its financial statements, particularly its relationship with Allstar Equities, Inc., and adoption of this statement did not have an impact on the Company's financial statements. 2. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS In 1999, I-Sector decided to sell both its computer products reselling business and its PBX telephone systems dealer business. During the periods specified below, I-Sector recognized a gain (loss) on disposal, net of income tax provision, of these two businesses as follows:
March 31, --------------- 2003 2004 ----- ---- Computer Products Division (net of tax benefits of $3 and $4, respectively) .................... $ (5) $ (9) Telecom Division (net of taxes and tax benefits of $2 and $(1), respectively) .................. 5 (3) ----- ---- Net loss on disposal .............................. $ -- $(12) ----- ----
The balance sheet caption "Net liabilities related to discontinued operations" contains $557 and $642 at December 31, 2003 and March 31, 2004, respectively, of estimated future expenses related to the winding up of the Telecom Division and the Computer Products Division, and includes amounts related to settlement of pending litigation and to Telecom warranties. An additional $85 relating to the rebate repayment claims from a former vendor was reclassified from accrued liabilities to net liabilities related to discontinued operations during the three month period ending March 31, 2004. 10 3. SEGMENT INFORMATION I-Sector has four reportable segments: INX, Stratasoft, Valerent and Corporate. Corporate is not a revenue generating operating segment. The accounting policies of the business segments are the same as those for I-Sector. I-Sector evaluates performance of each segment based on operating income. Management views trade accounts receivable and inventory and not total assets in their decision-making. Inter-segment sales and transfers are not significant and are shown in the Eliminations column in the following table. The tables below show the results of the four reportable segments: For the quarter ended March 31, 2004:

International sales accounted for $356 or 3.7% and $654 or 4.6% of consolidated revenues and 21.8% and 30.6% of the Stratasoft segment revenues in the three months ended March 31, 2003 and 2004, respectively. International sales are derived primarily from Canada, the United Kingdom, Germany, Greece, India, Egypt, the Philippines and Granada. 4. EARNINGS PER SHARE Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS is based on the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during each period and the assumed exercise of dilutive stock options and warrants less the number of treasury shares assumed to be purchased from the proceeds using the average market price of the Company's common stock for each of the periods presented. For the quarter ended March 31, 2003, I-Sector's potentially dilutive options of 159,794 were not used in the calculation of diluted earnings since the effect of potentially dilutive securities in computing a loss per share is antidilutive. The potentially dilutive options of the Company's wholly-owned subsidiary, INX, (see Note 9) did not impact the calculation of I-Sector's earnings per share for the three months ended March 31, 2003 since the effect would have been antidilutive. In the three months ended March 31, 2004, net income from continuing operations for purposes of computing the income per share decreased $4 for the assumed exercise of INX options under the treasury method.

5. DEBT On September 27, 2001, Stratasoft, a subsidiary of I-Sector, signed a note payable to a third party for $725, payable in monthly installments through February 2007. The note does not bear interest and I-Sector has imputed interest at 5.5% to record the debt and related patent license asset and has recorded interest expense of $3 and $5 the three month periods ended March 31, 2003 and 2004, respectively. This note is collateralized by Stratasoft's patent license assets and Stratasoft has granted a security interest in its pending patent application and the next two patent applications filed by Stratasoft. In connection with this note payable, I-Sector has short-term debt maturing within one year of $68 and $71 at 12 December 31, 2003 and March 31, 2004, respectively; and long-term debt of $184 and $165 at December 31, 2003 and March 31, 2004, respectively. In October 2001, I-Sector signed a non-interest bearing note payable for $39 payable in monthly installments through October 2004. In connection with this note payable, I-Sector has short-term debt maturing within one year of $10 and $6 at December 31, 2003 and March 31, 2004, respectively. In December 2003, I-Sector signed a 36-month non-cancelable capital lease for the purchase of equipment. I-Sector imputed interest at 10% to record the debt on which I-Sector has recorded $2 interest expense for the three month period ending March 31, 2004. In connection with this capital lease, I-Sector has recorded short-term debt maturing within one year of $18 and $17 at December 31, 2003 and March 31, 2004, respectively; and long-term debt of $45 and $39 at December 31, 2003 and March 31, 2004, respectively. The borrowing base amount under the Textron facility is generally the sum of 80% of eligible accounts receivable (the "Accounts Advance Amount") plus the lesser of: (a) 90% of eligible inventory purchased by I-Sector from manufactures with whom Textron has acceptable repurchase agreements, plus 40% of other eligible inventory; (b) $4,000,000; or 30% of the Accounts Advance Amount. An account receivable will not qualify as an eligible accounts receivable if, among other things, it is not paid within 90 days after I-Sector's invoice date, the customer has failed to pay more than 25% of all accounts receivable owed by the customer to I-Sector within 90 days after the invoice date, or to the extent that the customer's total accounts receivable exceed 15% of all I-Sector's eligible accounts receivable. In February 2004, the syndication loan documents were executed and the credit line increased from $10,000 to $15,000. Inventory floor plan borrowings are reflected in accounts payable in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, except for $1,688 and $1,204 that is interest bearing and is reflected in short term debt in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets at December 31, 2004 and March 31, 2004, respectively. Borrowings accrue interest at the prime rate (4% at March 31, 2004) plus 2.5% on outstanding balances that extend beyond the vendor approved free interest period. This agreement is collateralized by substantially all of I-Sector's assets except its patent license assets. The loan agreement contains restrictive covenants measured at each quarter end and requires I-Sector to maintain minimum tangible capital funds, maintain minimum debt to tangible capital funds ratio, and achieve a fixed charge coverage ratio. At March 31, 2004, I-Sector was in compliance with those loan covenants effective at that date and anticipates that it will be able to comply with its loan covenants for the next twelve months. In the event I-Sector does not maintain compliance, it would be required to seek waivers from Textron and Silicon Valley Bank for those events, which, if not obtained, could accelerate repayment and require I-Sector to seek other sources of finance. At March 31, 2004, I-Sector had $6,930 outstanding on inventory floor plan finance borrowings, and the remaining credit availability was $8,070, subject to borrowing limitations as described above. 6. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES LITIGATION - In August 2002, Inacom Corp. ("Inacom") filed a lawsuit in the District Court of Douglas County, Nebraska styled Inacom Corp v. I-Sector Corporation, f/k/a Allstar Systems, Inc., claiming that I-Sector owed the sum of approximately $570 to Inacom as a result of Inacom's termination of a Vendor Purchase Agreement between Inacom and I-Sector. I-Sector believes that the claim is without merit and intends to vigorously contest the demand. In March 2003, I-Sector and other parties were notified of a demand for return of payments relating to the business activities of a call center customer. In March 2004, I-Sector was informed by the claimant that claims will not be pursued at this time. I-Sector believes that the claims against it, if re-initiated, are without merit and intends to vigorously contest any demands related to this matter. I-Sector is also party to other litigation and claims which management believes are normal in the course of its operations. While the results of such litigation and claims cannot be predicted with certainty, I-Sector believes the final outcome of such matters will not have a materially adverse effect on its results of operations or financial position. 7. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS The Company leases office space from Allstar Equities, Inc., a Texas corporation ("Equities"), a company wholly owned by I-Sector's Chief Executive Officer. On December 1, 1999 Equities purchased the Company's corporate office building and executed a direct lease with us with an expiration date of December 31, 2004. In conjunction with Equities obtaining new financing on the building, a new lease was executed with the Company on February 1, 2002 with an expiration date of January 31, 2007. The lease has rental rates of $37 per month. From time to time, I-Sector makes short-term loans and travel advances to its non-executive employees. The balance of approximately $16 and $6 relating to these loans and advances is included in the Company's consolidated balance sheets and reported as part of Accounts receivable - other at December 31, 2003 and March 31, 2004. 13 8. INTANGIBLE ASSETS On April 7, 2003, I-Sector's subsidiary, INX, acquired certain assets and liabilities of one of its competitors, Digital Precision, Inc. ("Digital"). Under the terms of the purchase, INX acquired fixed assets valued at $63, inventory valued at $101 and intellectual property, customer lists, trademarks, trade names and service marks, contract rights and other intangibles of Digital valued at $376, as well as assumed certain operating leases of equipment and office space in Austin, Texas and Dallas, Texas with a net future obligation of $548. The office space in Dallas, TX was subleased with future rentals of $234. The intangibles are subject to amortization and have a three year expected life. The purchase price was $540 in cash and, contingent upon the retention of certain key employees, the obligation to issue 1,800,000 shares of INX common stock in April 2004. The contingency was resolved in April 2004, and I-Sector recognized a minority interest related to the issuance of INX's common stock (see Note 9) resulting in additional intangible assets of approximately $300. The results of operations subsequent to April 7, 2003 are included in I-Sector's consolidated statements of operations. 9. STOCK OPTION PLANS The company has three stock-based option plans, the 1996 Incentive Stock Plan, the 1996 Non-Employee Director Stock Option Plan and the Incentive Plan. Under the Incentive Plan, all I-Sector employees, including officers, consultants and non-employees directors are eligible to participate. INX is the only I-Sector subsidiary with an incentive stock option plan in place. All other subsidiary plans except for INX were terminated in December 2003. The INX plan has not been presented to the shareholders of I-Sector for approval. INX has granted incentive awards under its incentive plan, and such awards have been granted to certain employees and to management of INX. Under INX's plan such options vest typically ratably over three to five years. In December 2003, the Company amended option agreements with INX's two most senior executives to convert to a fixed 5-year vesting schedule from one that was determined based on the percentage of attainment of predefined financial goals by INX. No stock-based compensation was recorded as the exercise price equaled or exceeded management's estimated fair value of the INX common stock. Any unvested INX stock options may vest immediately upon the occurrence of a liquidity event for that subsidiary. 5,440,000 of the options contain an exercise restriction which only allows vested options to be exercised upon the occurrence of a liquidity event or one month prior to the option's expiration date. The INX options expire ten years after the grant date if they are not exercised. The INX stock option grants are subject to dilution when I-Sector purchases additional shares of the subsidiary stock in order to keep the subsidiary sufficiently capitalized. INX has 8,274,288 options granted and outstanding, of which 3,395,166 are vested and 805,000 are exercisable at March 31, 2004. The outstanding options have exercise prices ranging from $0.01 to $0.25 per share with a weighted average of $0.17 per share. There are no shares in INX's plan available to be issued at March 31, 2004, and INX's plan has been amended, effective December 31, 2003 so that no further options may be granted under the plan. The tables below reflect the ownership of INX at March 31, 2004 and summarize the potential dilutive effect on I-Sector's ownership in INX if all options granted at March 31, 2004 were fully vested and option grants were exercised, and include the effects of the issuance of stock in 2004 relating to INX's acquisition of certain assets and liabilities of Digital Precision, Inc. The table does not assume any repurchase of shares with proceeds from option exercises.

(1) Options granted and outstanding at March 31, 2004 include option grants for 4,100,000 shares of INX granted to the two senior executives of INX and vesting of these option grants was performance-based relating to the percentage of predefined financial goals attained by INX while these two senior executives remain employed. In December 2003, these option agreements were amended to convert to a fixed 5-year vesting schedule. (2) Included in the option grants outstanding at March 31, 2004 are grants for 1,881,692 shares granted to key employees related to the acquisition Digital Precision, Inc. Grants for 500,000 of these shares vested April 2003. 14 The balance of the grants for 1,381,692 shares, which were granted in November 2003, vest over three years, starting in April 2004 (3) During the quarter ended December 31, 2003, INX granted fully vested options to purchase 1,200,000 shares of INX to the CEO and Chairman of the Board of I-Sector Corporation. Such option grant was voluntarily canceled by the CEO and Chairman of the Board of I-Sector Corporation in February, 2004 in connection with the issuance of a warrant for 1.2 million shares to I-Sector on similar terms. During the year ended December 31, 2003, INX granted fully vested options to purchase 300,000 shares to the President and CEO of INX. In addition, INX granted options vesting over three years to various other employees during the year ended December 31, 2003. (4) The remainder of the shares included in INX option grants outstanding at March 31, 2004 vests over either three or five years based upon continued employment by INX of the individuals to whom such grants have been made. All options granted by INX expire in ten years if unexercised. (5) The 1,800,000 shares were issued in April 2004 (See Note 8). 10. SUBSEQUENT EVENT On May 12, 2004 the Company closed a public offering of 500,000 Units. The Units began trading on May 7, 2004, on the American Stock Exchange under the symbol ISR.U. Each Unit consists of two shares of common stock and one warrant to purchase one share of common stock at a price of $12.45. The Units were offered at a public offering price of $16.60 per Unit resulting in $6,500 in estimated net proceeds. The underwriters have an option to purchase up to 75,000 additional Units to cover over-allotments. The Company intends to use the net proceeds of this offering primarily for working capital and to repay interest-bearing debt ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The following discussion is qualified in its entirety by, and should be read in conjunction with, our consolidated financial statements, including the notes thereto included elsewhere in this Form 10-Q/A and our Form 10-K previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. SPECIAL NOTICE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS This quarterly report on Form 10-Q/A contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 relating to future events or our future financial performance including, but not limited to, statements contained in Item 2. - "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations." Readers are cautioned that any statement that is not a statement of historical fact, including but not limited to, statements which may be identified by words including, but not limited to, "anticipate," "appear," "believe," "could," "estimate," "expect," "hope," "indicate," "intend," "likely," "may," "might," "plan," "potential," "seek," "should," "will," "would," and other variations or negative expressions thereof, are predictions or estimations and are subject to known and unknown risks and uncertainties. Numerous factors, including factors that we have little or no control over, may affect the I-Sector's actual results and may cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements contained herein. In evaluating such statements, readers should consider the various factors identified in I-Sector's annual report for 2003 on Form 10-K, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission including the matters set forth in Item 1.- "Factors Which May Affect The Future Results Of Operations," which could cause actual events, performance or results to differ materially from those indicated by such statements. GENERAL We are a leading regional provider of IP telephony and other network infrastructure and related implementation and support services. The IP telephony industry is characterized by rapidly evolving and competing technologies. We compete with larger and better financed entitles. Our three principal offices are located in Texas, and we primarily market to potential customers headquartered in, or making purchasing decisions from, Texas. Our long-term goal, however, is to become one of the leading national providers of Cisco-centric network and IP telephony solutions to enterprises. 15 We begin Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations with an overview of our strategies for achieving this goal and becoming profitable. From a financial perspective, these operating strategies have a number of important implications for our results of operations and financial condition. STRATEGY We plan to become profitable in 2004 by implementing the strategies discussed below. We believe that our strategies will allow us to continue to increase total revenues in 2004. Most importantly, we also believe our strategies will enable us to improve our gross profit in 2004 by improving our gross margins on INX revenue. At the same time, we will seek to contain the relatively fixed components of our selling, general and administrative expenses so that those components become a relatively smaller percentage of total revenues. Although selling expenses can generally be expected to increase as our revenues increase, we believe that if we are successful in implementing strategies, many general and administrative expenses (such as management salaries, administrative wages and professional expenses) will decrease as a percentage of our total revenues. Our key operating strategies are as follows: o seeking larger, full scale IP telephony implementation projects, as opposed to smaller pilot projects; o increasing the gross revenues from our higher gross margin operations, such as INX services and Stratasoft custom projects, as opposed to product sales, which typically produce narrower gross margins; o aligning ourselves with Cisco as our exclusive supplier for the network and IP telephony equipment and technology that we offer; o expanding geographically by acquiring complementary businesses and by opening our own offices; and o developing and marketing our own computer telephony software that operates with and augments Cisco-centric IP telephony products. If we are successful in obtaining larger, full scale IP telephony implementation projects, we expect that our gross revenues from both products and services will increase because these projects, by their nature, typically require a substantially higher level of our services and more products than do smaller projects. Larger projects, however, can strain our financial resources. For example, a potential customer for a major IP telephony project may require that we post a bid bond or performance bond in order for us to be awarded the project. This often occurs on competitive bids. Because of our financial condition, bonding companies typically require that we provide security to collateralize the issuance of its bond. We have been financially unable to provide sufficient collateral in some instances, and as a result have not been able to obtain the bond. We believe we have occasionally lost business that we might have otherwise been awarded because we were unable to obtain the bond required by the potential customer. Increases in the size and volume of IP telephony projects we undertake can also challenge our cash management. For example, larger projects can reduce our available cash by causing us to carry higher levels of inventory. Larger projects can also require us to invest our available cash in labor costs. This is because, in some cases, we do not receive payments from our customers for extended periods of time. Until they pay us, all the cash we previously invested in labor and products on the project remains tied up. We expect that greater amounts of our cash will become invested in accounts receivable in the future if we are successful in growing our business as we intend. To meet our cash requirements to support this growth, we expect to rely on capital provided from our operations and our credit facility, which is collateralized by our accounts receivable and substantially all of our assets. During May 2004 we raised equity capital through a public offering of our equity securities with net proceeds of $6.5 million. We intend to use the net proceeds of this offering primarily for working capital and to repay interest-bearing debt. Although over 75% of our revenue in 2003 was attributable to product sales, the gross profit margins on sales of our services have been substantially higher than those for sales of products, with the exception of sales of our proprietary Stratasoft software products. In 2003, for example, the gross profit margin on sales of products by INX was 12.4%, while the gross profit margin on sales of services by INX for that year was 29.6%. We therefore plan to increase revenue from services, particularly our post-implementation services for IP Telephony. The success of this aspect of our strategy largely depends on our ability to attract and retain highly skilled and experienced employees. For the last three years, the largest component of our total cost of sales and service has been purchases of Cisco-centric IP telephony products by INX. The majority of those purchases were directly from Cisco. We typically purchase from various wholesale distributors only when we cannot timely purchase products directly from Cisco. Our reliance on Cisco as the primary supplier for the network and IP telephony equipment and technology we offer means that our results 16 of operations from period to period depend substantially on the terms that we are able to purchase these product from Cisco and, to a much lesser extent, from wholesale distributors of Cisco's products. Therefore, our ability to manage the largest component of our cost of sales and service is very limited and depends to a large degree on maintaining and growing our relationship with Cisco. Our cost of products purchased from Cisco can be substantially influenced by whether Cisco sponsors sales incentive programs and whether we qualify for the incentives that Cisco offers. We plan to also grow our business in other geographic areas through strategic acquisition of similar businesses or by opening our own offices. This aspect of our strategy can affect our financial condition and results of operations in many ways. The purchase price for business acquisitions and the costs of opening offices may require substantial cash and may require us to incur long term debt. The expenses of a geographic expansion in an area may well exceed the revenues attributable to a new business or office for some time, even if it performs as we expect. Additionally, it is possible that our acquisition activities may require that we record substantial amounts of goodwill if the purchase consideration paid for an acquisition exceeds the estimated fair value of the net identified tangible and intangible assets acquired. To the extent an acquisition results in goodwill, we will reevaluate the realization of that goodwill at least annually and adjust it as appropriate. The resulting adjustment could result in significant charges to earnings in future periods. Developing new or substantially improved computer telephony software products will likely require us to expend cash and record software development expenses. Software development costs will likely be expensed because we expect to incur substantially all costs prior to achieving technological feasibility in developing a new or substantially improved software product. MINORITY INTEREST IN INX Since its formation in 2000, INX has been our wholly-owned subsidiary. In April 2004, INX ceased to be a wholly-owned subsidiary as the result of the issuance of INX common stock to the former owners of Digital Precision, which INX acquired in April 2003. In connection with that acquisition, we agreed to issue to the seller 1.8 million shares of INX common stock as additional purchase consideration for their business if certain employees remain employed through April 4, 2004, the first anniversary of the acquisition. These conditions were met and the INX stock was issued in April 2004. When that occurred, our ownership percentage of INX's common stock declined to approximately 92.4%. INX has also granted stock options to employees of INX to acquire INX common stock pursuant to a stock option plan for INX employees. Additionally, the I-Sector Warrant entitles us to acquire an additional 1.2 million shares of INX common stock. The exercise prices for the INX options and the I-Sector Warrant range from $0.01 to $0.25 with a weighted average of $0.17. We estimate that I-Sector's ownership in INX could be reduced to 69.5%, assuming that all of the INX options are exercised, we exercise the I-Sector Warrant and there are no other changes in INX's equity. While the existence of the unexercised INX options and the contingent obligation to issue INX stock does not result in a minority interest for accounting purposes through March 2004, the actual issuance of INX stock in April 2004 did result in a minority interest. Because I-Sector will own less than all of INX's stock, its interest in INX's future profits and losses will be reduced. Under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, I-Sector's consolidated financial statements in future periods will reflect a minority interest adjustment of the otherwise reportable profits and losses of INX by the percentage of minority ownership in INX. I-Sector's percentage share of any cash dividends or other distributions paid by INX to its stockholders will likewise be reduced by the percentage of minority ownership in INX. Additionally, if the percentage of minority ownership of INX's stock grows as a result of future exercises of INX options, that increase will cause a corresponding decrease in the reportable share of INX's profits and losses included in our consolidated financial statements, and our share of cash dividends and other distributions from INX. Unlike the boards of directors of our wholly-owned subsidiaries, the board of directors of INX will be required to be mindful of the interests of INX's minority stockholders, in addition to our interests, when considering whether to approve business and financing transactions involving INX. For example, we may be unable to cause the assets of INX to be pledged as collateral security for indebtedness if the proceeds of that indebtedness disproportionately benefit us or our wholly-owned subsidiaries in relation to INX. Conflicts of interest may reduce our flexibility in structuring business and financing transactions beneficial to us and our wholly-owned subsidiaries. Contributions of capital to INX by us, in the form of stock purchases, which may be necessary to fund INX's growth, could increase our percentage ownership of INX, but would use capital. Because of the potential minority interest in INX, we will be required to make capital contributions to INX on a basis that is, in the good faith judgment of our board of directors, fair to us and the holders of the minority interest. 17 Minority stock ownership in INX could also subject us to lawsuits from its minority stockholders complaining of our actions with respect to INX and its minority stockholders, even if the actions complained of are ultimately determined to have been proper. For example, if we choose to cause INX to merge with, or sell all or substantially all of its assets to, another entity, the minority stockholders of INX may bring lawsuits seeking to block the transaction or seeking to exercise statutory dissenters' rights with respect to the transaction. Whether or not successful, any such actions would cause us to incur litigation costs and potentially reduce the benefit of any such transaction to us. The stock of INX is not publicly-traded. Accordingly, any shares of INX stock issued, including those issued to the former owners of Digital Precision upon exercise of INX options, are, and will be for the foreseeable future, relatively illiquid. For this reason, and to eliminate the other consequences of having a minority interest in a subsidiary, we believe that in the future we will offer to exchange INX stock and stock options for common stock or stock options to acquire our common stock. If we conclude such a transaction, the aggregate ownership percentage of our common stock by our stockholders immediately before the conversion or exchange transaction will be reduced by the percentage of post-transaction ownership acquired by the former minority stockholders of INX. Their post-transaction ownership may be further reduced by subsequent exercises of I-Sector stock options that we may choose to exchange for INX stock options. We cannot predict the percentage of ownership reduction to our stockholders that may result from any future exchange or conversion of INX stock and INX options. The ownership reduction resulting from any such transaction may, however, be significant. We believe this may be the case principally because: o we expect that the total number of shares of our common stock that we would be required to issue in any such transaction would be approximately equivalent in value, as determined at a future date, to the value of the INX stock and INX options to be exchanged at the same future date; o the historical financial effect of INX on our business is significant, as compared with our other subsidiaries; and o we expect INX will continue to generate most of our revenue. If in the future we propose to exchange or convert INX stock and INX options into I-Sector common stock or options, we intend to appoint a special committee of our independent directors to negotiate any exchange ratio for the transaction with the principal INX minority stockholders and option holders. The facts and circumstances that the special committee may choose to consider and the relative weights to be accorded them in negotiating the relative values of our common stock and INX stock and in negotiating the exchange ratio for any future transaction are matters that we intend to delegate to the discretion of the special committee. Accordingly, presently we cannot quantify the amount of any future ownership reduction that our stockholders may experience in an exchange transaction with INX stockholders and option holders. Under some circumstances, we may be required by United States generally accepted accounting principles to record substantial non-cash expenses if we choose to exchange INX stock or INX options into our common stock or options. We are not now able to determine the amount or timing of any such charges. This is because those matters will largely depend upon the timing and terms on which any future exchange would occur, particularly the exchange ratio negotiated at the time. Because most of our revenues in 2003 were generated by INX and our expectation is that this will continue for the foreseeable future, we believe that any resulting non-cash expense charges could be substantial. Any such future non-cash expenses charges could materially and adversely affect our financial results of operations. If we determine to undertake a transaction to exchange INX stock or INX options into our common stock or stock options, we also plan to submit any such transaction to our stockholders for their approval, even if not required by Delaware law or the rules of the American Stock Exchange. Even if we believe that such transaction is in our best interest, our stockholders may refuse to approve it. If that were to occur, it could disappoint the expectations of those INX minority stockholders and INX option holders in favor of the transaction, some of who are currently, and are expected to remain, key employees. This could cause employee morale and retention problems for us. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Overview Sources of Revenue. Our revenue is derived from three segments represented by our three operating subsidiaries, INX, Stratasoft and Valerent. During the quarter ended March 31, 2004, INX, Stratasoft and Valerent accounted for 76.9%, 15.0% and 9.6%, respectively, of total consolidated revenue, and (1.5)% of subsidiary revenue was eliminated in consolidation due to inter-company transactions. 18 INX revenue consists of product and service revenue. Product revenue consists of reselling Cisco products and limited amounts of complementary products by other manufacturers. Service revenue is generated by fees from a variety of implementation and support services. Product prices for INX are set by the market for Cisco products, and provide our lowest gross margins. Service revenue for INX has recently provided a higher gross margin that has generally improved over the past several years as the cost of INX's technical resources, which are reflected as a cost of service, has decreased as a percentage of services revenue. Also, certain fixed and flat fee service contracts that extend over three months or more are accounted for on the percentage of completion method of accounting. Historically, the majority of INX's services revenue has been generated from implementation services, which is project oriented and tends to be volatile as projects are completed and new projects commence. As the number, frequency and size of INX projects has grown, INX has achieved better utilization of its engineering resources resulting in improved services gross margins. The normal sales cycles for corporate customers typically ranges from three to six months depending on the nature, scope and size of the deal involved. But our direct experience with school districts involved in eRate funding (a governmental funding program for schools) indicates that the sales lead time is generally about six to twelve months. In mid-2003, INX introduced Netsurant, its branded support service that consists primarily of customer service personnel and a support center that we believe could further improve overall services gross margins. Through March 31, 2004, Netsurant service revenue was not significant. Stratasoft revenue consists primarily of custom project revenue from the sale of proprietary computer-telephony software. Our Stratasoft revenue is reported as custom project revenue in our financial statements, because it consists of product and services which cannot be accounted for separately. Stratasoft has traditionally provided our highest gross margin since it is primarily sales of our proprietary computer-telephony software. Our cost of goods sold for Stratasoft's custom project revenue includes the costs of developing our computer-telephony software products, installation costs, and the cost of hardware and other equipment bundled with our software applications and included in a sale to a customer. Stratasoft revenue also includes sales to resellers. The sales to resellers are recorded when the sale becomes fixed or determinable; otherwise revenue from resellers is recorded when payments become due. Valerent revenue consists of both product revenue and services revenue. Product revenue consists of reselling primarily software products, and to a lesser degree, hardware products, that facilitate Valerent's managed services, including remote management software products from Altiris, Inc., and security software products from Network Associates, Inc. Product sales prices for Valerent are set by the market for these products, and Valerent's product sales have typically provided lower gross profit margins than its services revenue. Valerent's services revenue consists of remote and onsite technical assistance to its customers. Valerent's gross margin on service revenue, much like INX's implementation services revenue, is subject to variability based upon the utilization of Valerent's billable technical resources. Recurring service agreements exist with some customers, but usually with varying terms and conditions that conform to their year over year business changes and their specific needs, and while these agreements provide predictable and stable sources of revenue, the loss of a recurring agreement could disrupt the stability of that revenue stream for Valerent. Gross Profit and Gross Profit Margin. The mix of our various revenue components, each of which has substantially different levels of gross margin, materially influences our overall gross profit and gross margin in any particular quarter. In periods in which service revenue or Stratasoft custom project revenue are high, as compared to INX and Valerent product sales, our gross margin generally improves as compared to periods in which we have higher levels of product sales. Our gross margin for product sales also varies depending on the type of product sold, the mix of large revenue product contracts, which typically have lower gross margin, as compared to smaller revenue product contacts, which typically have higher gross margin. In addition, our quarterly gross profit and gross margin can be materially affected by vendor incentives received in certain quarterly periods, most of which are Cisco incentives received by INX. The incentive programs sponsored by Cisco currently enable us to qualify for cash rebates or product pricing discounts. These incentives are generally earned based on sales volume, sales growth and, customer satisfaction levels. The amounts earned under these programs are recorded as a reduction of cost of goods and can vary significantly between periods. Currently, incentives by Cisco are paid semiannually, and are typically paid in the first and third quarters of each calendar year. Incentives are recognized when we receive payment from the supplier or when we have earned and can reasonably estimate the amount due from the supplier. During the three months ended March 31, 2004 we recognized $622,000 in vendor incentives, and we accrued approximately $100,000 in commission expense earned by sales personnel in association with this vendor incentive program. Expenses. A significant portion of our cost of services for each of our service businesses is comprised of labor. Labor cost related to permanent employees is generally fixed in the short-term so that higher levels of service revenue produce higher gross margins while lower levels of service revenue produce lower gross margins. Our gross margin on services revenue fluctuates from period to period depending not only upon the prices charged to customers for our services, but also upon the level of utilization of our technical staff. Management of labor cost is therefore important in order to 19 prevent erosion of gross margin. Our gross margin is also impacted by such factors as contract size, time and material pricing versus fixed fee pricing, discounting, vendor incentives and other business and marketing factors normally incurred during the conduct of business. Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Our selling, general and administrative expenses include both fixed and variable expenses. Relatively fixed expenses in selling, general and administrative expenses include rent, utilities, promotion and advertising, and administrative wages. Variable expenses in selling, general and administrative expenses include sales commissions and travel, which will usually vary based on our sales and gross profit. Selling general and administrative expenses also include expenses which vary significantly from period to period but not in proportion to sales or gross profit. These include legal expenses and bad debt expense both of which vary based on factors that are difficult to predict. A significant portion of our selling, general and administrative expenses relate to personnel costs, some of which are variable and others that are relatively fixed. Our variable personnel costs consist primarily of sales commissions. Sales commissions are typically calculated based upon our gross profit on a particular sales transaction and thus generally fluctuate because of the size of the deal and the mix of associated products and services with our overall gross profit. Bad debt expense generally fluctuates somewhat in proportion to sales levels, although not always in the same periods as increases or decreases in sales. Legal expense varies based on legal issue activity, which can vary substantially from period to period. The remainder of selling, general and administrative expenses are relatively fixed and do not vary in direct proportion to increases in revenue. Acquisition and Disposition. In the second quarter of 2003, INX acquired the fixed assets, inventory, intellectual property, customer lists, trademarks, trade names service marks, contract rights and other intangibles of Digital Precision. In connection with that acquisition we also assumed leases for equipment and office space. Our results of operations include those attributable to Digital Precision on and after April 7, 2003. The purchase price for Digital Precision was $540,000 in cash and 1.8 million shares of INX common stock which we agreed to issue if certain employees remain employed through April 4, 2004, the first anniversary of the acquisition. We did not recognize goodwill at the time of the acquisition of Digital Precision, however, we will record approximately $300,000 in intangible assets in connection with the 1.8 million shares of INX stock we issued in April 2004. The sale of our computer reselling and PBX telephone systems reselling business in early 2000 and the sale of our IT Staffing business in 2001 resulted in a gain on disposal. Since the sale of these businesses, we have realized, in various periods, income and expense from discontinued operations that has been primarily a result of litigation expenses and settlement of litigation related to our discontinued operations. We expect the income and expense from discontinued operations to decrease over time and to eventually be eliminated after these matters are fully resolved. Tax Loss Carryforward. Because of our operating losses in 2003, we have accumulated a net operating loss carryforward for federal income tax purposes that, as of March 31, 2004, was approximately $2.4 million and is available to offset future federal and state taxable income. This carryforward expires in 2023. In addition to potential expiration, there are several factors that could limit or eliminate our ability to use these carryforwards. For example, under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, use of prior net operating loss carryforwards is limited after an ownership change. This type of change could result from the offering we completed during May 2004, either alone or in combination with other prior or subsequent offerings of equity securities. If we achieve sustained profitability, which may not happen, the use of net operating loss carryforwards would reduce our tax liability and increase our net income and available cash resources. When all operating loss carryforwards have been used or have expired, we would again be subject to increased tax expense and reduced earnings due to such tax expense. Period Comparisons. The following table sets forth, for the periods indicated, certain financial data derived from our consolidated statements of operations. Percentages shown in the table below are percentages of total revenue, except for each individual segment's cost of sales and services, gross profit, selling, general and administrative expenses, and operating income, which are percentages of the respective segment's revenue, and the product and service components of the INX and Valerent segments' cost of goods sold and gross profit, which are percentages of such segment's respective product and service revenue. 20

21 QUARTER ENDED MARCH 31, 2003 COMPARED TO QUARTER ENDED MARCH 31, 2004 Total Revenue. Our total revenue, net of intercompany eliminations, increased by $4.2 million, or 41.6%, from $10.1 million to $14.3 million. INX revenue increased by $3.9 million, or 53.7%, from $7.1 million to $11.0 million. As a percentage of total revenue, INX revenue increased from 70.8% to 76.9%. Product revenue increased $3.4 million, or 51.0% from $6.7 million to $10.1 million. INX service revenue increased $436,000, or 91.4% from $477,000 to $913,000. The increase in services is attributed to an increase in the number of IP Telephony projects which have higher service content than traditional network infrastructure projects, as well as the IP telephony service contract in Iraq. The increase in product sales is attributed to the adoption of IP telephony technology by our customers requiring equipment upgrades for implementation, and the addition of the Austin, Texas office resulting from the Digital Precision acquisition of April 2003. Stratasoft revenue increased by $68,000, or 3.3%. As a percentage of total revenue, Stratasoft revenue decreased from 20.5% to 15.0%. Stratasoft's international sales accounted for 30.6% of Stratasoft's revenue as compared to 21.8% in 2003. Stratasoft has its own internally managed sales force, but it also utilizes dealer agreements from time to time with certain established resellers in domestic and international markets that do not require the continued involvement of our personnel. Stratasoft derived $132,000 or 6.2% of its revenue from sales to resellers during the quarter which compares with $124,000 or 6.0% of its revenue in 2003. Sales to resellers are included in revenue when the fees are fixed and determinable; otherwise revenue from resellers is deferred and recognized when the payment becomes due. Valerent revenue increased by $360,000, or 35.8%, from $1.0 million to $1.4 million. As a percentage of total revenue, Valerent revenue decreased from 10.0% to 9.6%. The increase in Valerent revenue was primarily attributable to increased service revenue of $219,000 and increased product sales of $141,000. The increase in service revenue is primarily attributable to development of remote services for clients to operate themselves, the sale of the underlying technology to support remote management, and Valerent delivered remote managed services on behalf of clients, which was primarily related to Valerent making changes to its business model so that it no longer pursued certain non-strategic sources of services revenue. Valerent's business model now focuses on identifying and developing markets with enterprise customers. Gross Profit. Our total gross profit increased by $1.2 million, or 55.4%, from $2.3 million to $3.5 million. Gross margin increased from 22.6% to 24.8%, primarily because of the increase in gross margin in our INX subsidiary discussed below. INX gross profit increased $1.2 million, or 157.5%, from $778,000 to $2.0 million. INX's gross margin increased from 10.9% to 18.3%. INX's gross profit on its product sales component increased $862,000 or 105.5%, from $817,000 to $1.7 million due to increased product sales revenue and a vendor rebate of $622,000. INX's gross profit on its service component increased $363,000, from ($39,000) to $324,000, and service gross margin improved from (8.2%) to 35.5%, as a result of increased service revenue of $436,000 with a somewhat fixed cost of service component due to improved utilization of technical personnel. Stratasoft gross profit decreased by $93,000, or 7.3%, from $1.3 million to $1.2 million. Stratasoft's gross margin decreased from 61.3% to 55.0%. Stratasoft gross profit was impacted by the mix of sales between "systems sales", which include a hardware component, as compared to "software only" sales, which do not have a hardware component. Stratasoft's decreased gross profit is primarily due to a decreased "software only" component relative to the "systems sales" component of total Stratasoft sales. Software only sales include sales to reseller customers and do not require the continuing involvement of our personnel. Valerent gross profit increased by $129,000, or 56.3%, from $229,000 to $358,000. Valerent's gross margin increased from 22.8% to 26.2%. Valerent's cost of service consists primarily of fixed labor cost that does not fluctuate directly with changes in revenue. Valerent improved its utilization of its labor pool by reducing the number of technicians employed, relative to revenue, and lowered its fixed cost, which contributed to improved gross profits. 22 Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $123,000, or 3.6% from $3.4 million to $3.5 million. As a percentage of total revenue, these expenses decreased 9.0%, from 33.5% to 24.5%. Sales compensation increased $461,000 due to additional personnel as the result of the Digital Precision acquisition in April 2003 and increased commissions generated from the increase in gross profit, and it also includes approximately $100,000 in earned commissions by sales personnel in association with the Cisco vendor incentive program. Bad debt expense decreased $664,000 due to recoveries of bad debt and decreases in allowances based on the aging of receivables and credit worthiness of customers. Legal and professional fees increased $88,000 primarily from the amortizaion of prepaid consultant expenses of $91,000, which was offset by a $20,000 decrease resulting from the revaluation of a non-employee stock option compensation for a different consultant in addition to a $3,000 decrease in various attorney fees for collection matters for a total net increase of $68,000. Administrative compensation expense increased $168,000 due to hiring additional INX and Stratasoft personnel in Houston, Texas, Dallas, Texas, Canada, India and the addition of Austin, Texas office resulting from the Digital Precision acquisition of April 2003. Payroll tax expense increased $34,000 in line with the increase in compensation expenses. Employee benefits increased $39,000 as a result of additional personnel and policy rate changes. Contract labor expense decreased $46,000 primarily from Stratasoft terminating contract labor in India. Travel expense decreased $14,000 due to reduced Stratasoft international travel and INX travel for technical staff and management. General office expenses increased $48,000 due to increased printing and general Company growth. Insurance expense decreased $50,000 because of policy and rate changes. Shareholer relations expense increased $56,000, due to employing a shareholder relations firm, attending investor conferences and visiting investor groups, however this expense was partially offset by a $43,000 reduction related to the revaluation of the non-employee stock option compensation for the investor relation consultant for an overall net increase of $13,000. Depreciation expense increased $36,000 due to asset additions and the Digital Precision acquisition in April 2003. Rents increased $51,000 due to additional office space in Austin, Texas and Dallas, Texas resulting from the Digital Precision acquisition in April 2003. Advertising and promotion decreased $23,000 because Stratasoft decreased its promotion expense. Other corporate expenses increased $2,000 due to company growth. Operating Profit. Operating profit increased $1.1 million, or 103.4% from a $1.1 million loss to a $37,000 profit, primarily due to the $1.2 million increase in gross profit being offset by the $123,000 increase in selling, general and administrative expenses. INX's operating profit increased $286,000, or 171.3% from a loss of $167,000 to a profit of $119,000. Stratasoft's operating profit increased $483,000, or 147.3% from a loss of $328,000 to a profit of $155,000. Valerent's operating loss decreased $299,000 or 90.3%, from $331,000 to $32,000. The operating loss for the Corporate Segment decreased $70,000, from a loss of $275,000 to a loss of $205,000. Interest and Other Income, Net. Interest and other income, net, increased by $9,000, from $10,000 to $19,000, primarily due to an increase in interest income of $50,000 from $ - to $50,000 on notes receivables and a foreign transaction gain increase $18,000 from $0 to a gain of $18,000 which was offset by a loss of $22,000 on the disposal of fixed assets resulting from the downsizing of Stratasoft's operations in India and an increase in interest expense of $22,000 from $5,000 to $27,000 due to increased borrowings used to finance inventory purchases related to increased business activity. Our borrowings under the Textron credit facility decreased from $7.6 million to $6.9 million while the interest bearing portion of our borrowings decreased from $1.7 million at December 31, 2003 to $1.2 million at March 31, 2003. Net income. Net income increased $1.1 million, or 103.6% from a $1.1 million net loss to a $39,000 net income. The income tax expense for the period was $5,000, and there is a net operating tax loss carryforward of approximately $2.4 million as of March 31, 2004 Discontinued Operations. During 1999, we discontinued our Telecom Systems business. On March 16, 2000, we entered into an agreement to sell certain assets of, and the ongoing operation of, our Computer Products Division. The sale transaction closed on May 19, 2000. On December 31, 2000, we sold our IT Staffing business. As a consequence of these events, the operations of these businesses are reported as discontinued operations. For the quarter ended March 31, 2003, the gain (loss) on disposal related to these three businesses was ($5,000), $5,000 and $0, net of taxes and tax benefits of ($3,000), $2,000 and $0, for a net total of $0. For the quarter ended March 31, 2004 the loss on disposal related to these three businesses was $3,000, $9,000 and $0, net of tax benefits of $1,000, $4,000 and $0, for a total loss of $12,000. The gains and/or losses on disposal in 2003 related to these discontinued operations are primarily related to collections of accounts receivables retained when these businesses were sold. The expense in 2004 relates to legal expenses associated with pending litigation. 23 LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES Sources of Liquidity Our principal sources of liquidity are collections from our accounts and notes receivable, and our credit facility with Textron Financial Corporation (the "Textron Facility"). We use the Textron Facility to finance the majority of our purchases of inventory, and to provide working capital when our cash flow from operations is insufficient. During the three month period ending March 31, 2004, we experienced positive cash flow from operating activities of $142,000 as compared to negative cash flow of $1.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2003. Our working capital was $3.7 million and $3.5 million at December 31, 2003 and March 31, 2004, respectively. Accounts and Notes Receivable. The timing of our collection of accounts and notes receivable and payments of our accounts payable is one of the principal influences on our cash flow from operations. We typically sell our products and services on short-term credit terms. We try to minimize our credit risk by performing credit checks, obtaining letters of credit in certain instances, and conducting our own collection efforts. We had accounts receivable, net of allowance for doubtful accounts, of $9.8 million and $9.4 million at December 31, 2003 and March 31, 2004, respectively. Our Stratasoft subsidiary has accepted customer notes receivable as part of its consideration for certain of its custom projects sales. At December 31, 2003 and March 31, 2004, Stratasoft had net notes receivable of $928,000 and $1.2 million, respectively. The following table shows the breakdown of the total notes receivable:
DECEMBER 31 MARCH 31 2003 2004 ----------- -------- (DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS) Current portion of notes receivable, gross .. $ 1,049 $ 1,404 Allowance for doubtful notes ................

(250) (250) ------- ------- Long-term portion of notes receivable, net .. 252 125 ------- ------- Total notes receivable, net ................. $ 928 $ 1,187 ------- -------
Alternatively, our Stratasoft subsidiary also has other sales that require payment to occur after more than 90 days but less than twelve months from the date of the sale. Those outstanding balances are classified as accounts receivable on the accompanying balance sheets. Inventory. We had inventory of $1.0 million and $1.3 million at December 31, 2003 and March 31, 2004, respectively. We try to minimize the amount of inventory on hand to reduce the risk that the inventory will become obsolete or decline in value. We have been able to do this by relying on the ready availability of products from our principal suppliers. As noted above, we rely principally on our Textron Facility to finance our inventory purchases. Textron Facility. On January 31, 2002, we entered into the Textron Facility to provide financing for our inventory purchases. The total credit available under the Textron facility, as amended, is $15 million and it is collateralized by substantially all of our assets other than our patent licenses. As of March 31, 2004, we owed $6.9 million under the Textron Facility and had an additional $8.1 million available subject to borrowing base restrictions. The borrowing base amount under the Textron facility is generally the sum of 80% of eligible accounts receivable (the "Accounts Advance Amount") plus the lesser of: (a) 90% of eligible inventory purchased by us from manufactures with whom Textron has acceptable repurchase agreements, plus 40% of other eligible inventory; (b) $4,000,000; or 30% of the Accounts Advance Amount. An account receivable will not qualify as an eligible accounts receivable if, among other things, it is not paid within 90 days after our invoice date, the customer has failed to pay more than 25% of all accounts receivable owed by the customer to us within 90 days after the invoice date, or to the extent that the customer's total accounts receivable exceed 15% of all of our eligible accounts receivable. We use the Textron Facility to finance purchases of Cisco products from Cisco and from certain wholesale distributors. Cisco provides 60-day terms, and other wholesale distributors typically provide 30-day terms. Balances under the Textron Facility that are within those respective 60- and 30-day periods (the "Free Finance Period") do not accrue interest and are classified as accounts payable in our balance sheet. We refer to non-interest bearing balances as "inventory floor plan borrowings." 24 To the extent that we can borrow under the Textron Facility, it gives us the ability to extend the payment terms past the Free Finance Period. Amounts extended past the Free Finance Period accrue interest and are classified as notes payable on our balance sheet. These extended payment balances under the Textron Facility accrue interest at the prime rate (4.0% at March 31, 2004) plus 2.5%. Working capital advances under the Textron Facility accrue interest at the same rate as extended payment balances. Because payment cycles of sales to school districts under the eRate program extend beyond 60 days, we expect we will continue to carry extended payment balances under the Textron Facility during 2004. The total outstanding balance under the Textron Facility at March 31, 2004 was $6.9 million. Approximately, $5.7 million of that was within the Free Finance Period and therefore is reflected as accounts payable on our balance sheet at March 31, 2004 and approximately $1.2 million consisted of extended payment balances that bear interest and therefore is reflected as notes payable on our balance sheet at March 31, 2004. The Textron Facility contains restrictive covenants that are measured at each quarter end. These covenants require us to: o maintain Minimum Tangible Capital Funds of $2.2 million, which is defined to be the sum of cash, trade accounts receivable, inventory and fixed net assets, minus subordinated liabilities minus total liabilities, with total liabilities being defined as accounts payable, accrued expenses and short- and long-term notes payable; o maintain a maximum Debt to Tangible Capital Funds ratio of 6.0 to 1; and o to achieve a fixed charge coverage ratio of no less than 1.1 to 1.0, the fixed charge coverage ratio being defined as (a) quarterly net income plus interest expense, taxes, and lease and rental expense divided by (b) [the sum of] (1) quarterly interest expense, lease and rental expense, and (2) quarterly current maturities of long-term debt divided by 1-tax rate. At March 31, 2004, we were in compliance with the loan covenants, and we anticipate that we will be able to comply with the loan covenants during the next twelve months. If we violate any of the loan covenants, we would be required to seek waivers from Textron and Silicon Valley Bank for those non-compliance events. If Textron or Silicon Valley Bank refused to provide waivers, the amount due under the Textron Facility could be accelerated and we could be required to seek other sources of financing. Contractual Obligations The following table summarizes certain of our contractual cash obligations and related payments due as of March 31, 2004:

During the second quarter of 2004 the INX and Valerent Dallas offices will occupy new office space under a six year lease obligation. Expected payments for base lease obligation are approximately $ - for 2004, $157,000 for 2005, $205,000 for 2006, $241,000 for 2007, $255,000 for 2008, $264,000 for 2009 and $110,000 for 2010. The approximate previous annual lease payment for the INX was $108,000. We do not have any material contractual purchase obligations. We purchase inventory to fulfill in-hand orders from customers and we try to minimize the amount of inventory on hand to reduce risk that the inventory will become obsolete or decline in value. We are able to do this by relying on the ready availability of products from our principal suppliers. We expect to be able to meet our contractual cash payment obligations by their due dates through cash generated from operations, augmented, if needed, by borrowings under the Textron Facility, and through the proceeds from this offering. Cash Flows. During the first quarter of 2004, our cash decreased by $448,000. Operating activities provided $142,000, investing activities used $139,000 and financing activities used $451,000. 25 Operating Activities. Operating activities provided $142,000 in the first quarter of 2004 as compared to using cash of $1.3 million in 2003. The cash provided in 2004 was primarily related to the net income of $39,000. Adjustments to the net income for non-cash expenses included a reduction of bad debt expense of $182,000, which was attributable to recovery of bad debt and decreases in allowances for notes receivable and the allowance for doubtful accounts receivable due to the shorter aging periods. Changes in asset and liability accounts used $19,000. The most significant use related to an increase in net working capital used for contracts in progress which increased $902,000 due to an increase in cost and estimated earnings in excess of billings of $752,000, which was primarily related to an increase in the Stratasoft custom projects in process at quarter-end. Inventory increased $277,000 primarily due INX staging Cisco products for upcoming projects. Accrued expenses increased primarily for accrued sales commissions and other payroll related costs. These uses of cash were partially offset by an increase in accounts payable of $618,000, which related primarily to increased purchases of Cisco products for sales by INX. The decrease in other current assets of $245,000 primarily related to the return of bid deposits for INX bids on school projects. The decrease in accounts receivable of $431,000 was partially related a $91,000 reclassification of an INX account receivable to a note receivable and partially related to improved collections during March 2004. Days sales outstanding increased by 3 days from December 31, 2003 to 60 days at March 31, 2004. In addition, deferred revenue increased $180,000 for software products sold on a note that was not due within twelve months of the note origination. Revenue from this sale will be recognized in the accounting periods that payments from the customer are received. Investing Activities. Investing activities used $139,000 in 2004 compared to a use of $173,000 for 2003. Our investing activities related to capital expenditures in both periods were primarily related to purchases of computer equipment and software, and to a lesser degree, leasehold improvements. During the next twelve months, we do not expect to incur significant capital expenditures requiring cash, except possibly for acquisitions, of which we cannot predict the certainty or magnitude. Financing Activities. Financing activities used $451,000 in 2004 as compared to using $67,000 in 2003. In 2003, our stock price increased substantially, resulting in stock option holders exercising stock options, which provided $59,000. During January 2004, the company repaid $1.7 million of interest-bearing debt under the Textron Facility, however, at March 31, 2004, $1.2 million of debt under the Textron Facility was interest-bearing and was classified as notes payable rather than accounts payable. On May 12, 2004 we closed a public offering of 500,000 Units. The Units began trading on May 7, 2004, on the American Stock Exchange under the symbol ISR.U. Each Unit consists of two shares of common stock and one warrant to purchase one share of common stock at a price of $12.45. The Units were offered at a public offering price of $16.60 per Unit resulting in $6.5 million in estimated net proceeds. The underwriters have an option to purchase up to 75,000 additional Units to cover over-allotments. We intend to use the net proceeds of this offering primarily for working capital and to repay interest-bearing debt RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS We lease office space from Allstar Equities, Inc., a Texas corporation ("Equities"), a company wholly owned by James H. Long, our chief executive officer. On December 1, 1999 Equities purchased our corporate office building and executed a direct lease with us with an expiration date of December 31, 2004. In conjunction with Equities obtaining new financing on the building, a new lease was executed with us on February 1, 2002 with an expiration date of January 31, 2007. The new lease has a rental rate of $37,192 per month. From time to time we make short-term loans and travel advances to our employees. The balance of approximately $16,000 and $6,000 relating to these loans and advances is included in the Company's balance sheet and reported as part of Accounts receivable - affiliates at December 31, 2003 and March 31, 2004, respectively. 26 ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK We incur certain market risks related to interest rate variations because we hold floating rate debt. Based upon the average amount of debt outstanding during the three months ended March 31, 2004, a one-percent increase in interest rates paid by us on our floating rate debt would not have resulted in an increase in interest for the period. Our business depends upon our ability to obtain an adequate supply of products and parts at competitive prices and on reasonable terms. Our suppliers are not obligated to have product on hand for timely delivery to us nor can they guarantee product availability in sufficient quantities to meet our demands. INX's business is Cisco centric. Any material disruption in our supply of products could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES Under the supervision and with the participation of certain members of our management, including our Chairman of the Board, Chief Executive Officer and principal financial officer, we completed an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act")). Based on that evaluation, we and our management have concluded that, except as discussed in the following paragraph, our disclosure controls and procedures at the end of the period covered by this report were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC, and are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in these reports is accumulated and communicated to our management, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. Grant Thornton LLP ("Grant Thornton"), our independent accountants, identified and reported to the audit committee of the board of directors certain internal control deficiencies that Grant Thornton considered to be significant deficiencies under the standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants and the SEC. The identified internal control deficiencies relate to (i) a material weakness involving contemporaneous documentation of all terms related to revenue transactions and conclusions regarding customer creditworthiness and (ii) a significant deficiency with respect to the review of significant agreements by our accounting personnel in order to monitor compliance with their terms. We took corrective actions to address these internal control deficiencies, by implementing the following measures: o established improved procedures for the review of revenue recognition policies and contract management polices and procedures; o held formalized training of finance and sales staff; and o hired an additional person in our accounting department. In the first quarter of 2004, there have been no other changes in our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are likely to affect, our internal control over financial reporting. PART II. OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS In August 2002, Inacom Corp. ("Inacom") filed a lawsuit in the District Court of Douglas County, Nebraska styled Inacom Corp v. I-Sector Corporation, f/k/a Allstar Systems, Inc., claiming that I-Sector owed the sum of approximately $570 to Inacom as a result of Inacom's termination of a Vendor Purchase Agreement between Inacom and I-Sector. I-Sector believes that the claim is without merit and intends to vigorously contest the demand. 27 In March 2003, I-Sector and other parties were notified of a demand for return of payments relating to the business activities of a call center customer. In March 2004, I-Sector was informed by the claimant that claims will not be pursued at this time. I-Sector believes that the claims against it, if re-initiated, are without merit and intends to vigorously contest any demands related to this matter. I-Sector is also party to other litigation and claims which management believes are normal in the course of its operations. While the results of such litigation and claims cannot be predicted with certainty, I-Sector believes the final outcome of such matters will not have a materially adverse effect on its results of operations or financial position.
