ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF BUSINESS AND UNCERTAINTY
 
Horne International, Inc. (the “Company” or “Horne”), headquartered in Fairfax, Virginia, provides program engineering services in the areas of environment, energy and infrastructure.
 
The Company decided to cease operations in the Spectrum Sciences & Software, Inc. and Coast Engine and Equipment Co. subsidiaries during the first quarter of 2008. These companies represented the entire operations of the Security Solutions and Repair and Overhaul segments, respectively.
 
The Company’s independent accountants stated in their report on the consolidated financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 27, 2009, that the Company has had recurring operating losses that raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. For the six months ended June 27, 2010, the Company incurred a loss from continuing operations of approximately $751,000 and had a stockholder deficit of approximately $707,000 as of June 27, 2010. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recovery and classification of recorded assets, or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary in the event the Company cannot continue as a going concern.
 
The Company is dependent upon available cash and operating cash flow to meet its capital needs. The Company is considering all strategic options to improve its liquidity and provide it with working capital to fund its continuing business operations which include equity offerings, assets sales or debt financing as alternatives to improve its cash requirements.
 
In December 2009, the Company entered into a two-year receivable noncancellable financing agreement with Wells Fargo Bank National Association under which the Company is able to factor certain eligible accounts receivable to a facility maximum of $1,000,000. The agreement calls for a minimum monthly fee of $3,000 for the term of the agreement. The Company is able to receive 85 percent of any invoices factored to the lender.
 
On March 22, 2010, the Company entered into a strategic partnership with Intelligent Decisions, Inc. (“Intelligent”). Intelligent is an information technology product and services company headquartered in Ashburn, Virginia, servicing both commercial and government customers. The partnership will allow the Company to have a cash line of credit in the amount of $250,000 against business/projects jointly developed by Intelligent and the Company. This line of credit will be secured by the Company’s eligible Accounts Receivable on such projects or the Company’s full-time equivalent employees arising after the inception of the partnership that are billed against projects as decided by Intelligent in its sole discretion. No cash will be advanced by Intelligent until Intelligent receives a perfected security interest (i.e., first lien on the orders to be advanced under this cash line of credit).

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation
 
The consolidated financial statements of Horne International, Inc. include accounts of the company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. Intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated in consolidation.
 
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements for the six-month periods ended June 27, 2010, and June 28, 2009, have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission for Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring accruals, considered necessary for a fair presentation of the Company's financial position, results of operations, and cash flows as of and for the periods presented.
 
The results of operations for the period ended June 27, 2010, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year. These interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related footnotes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 27, 2009.

Notes to (Unaudited) Consolidated Financial Statements

Revenue Recognition
 
The Company’s two principal methods of revenue recognition are monthly fixed price contracts in which revenue is recognized ratably over the contract period and time and materials contracts in which revenue is recognized as costs are incurred.
 
Income Taxes
 
The Company accounts for income taxes utilizing the asset and liability method. This approach requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enacted date. Valuation allowances are established when it is necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.
 
The Company currently has a net operating loss carry forward of approximately $55 million at June 27, 2010. The Company has not recorded this federal tax benefit in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, due to the possibility that the net operating loss carry forward may not be utilized, for various reasons, including the potential that the Company might not have sufficient profits to use the carry forward or the carry forward may be limited as a result of changes in the Company’s equity ownership. The Company adopted Accounting Standards Codification topic 740, subtopic 10 on January 1, 2007, which requires financial statement benefits to be recognized for positions taken for tax return purposes when it is more-likely-than-not that the position will be sustained. There has been no change in our financial position and results of operation due to the adoption of this standard.
 
Loss Per Share
 
Basic loss per share is calculated by dividing net loss by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted loss per share is computed in a manner consistent with that of basic loss per share while giving effect to the impact of common stock equivalents. The Company’s common stock equivalents consist of employee, director, and consultant stock options to purchase common stock. Common stock equivalents of 10,544,333 and 365,000 were not included in the computation of diluted loss per share for the six months ended June 27, 2010, and June 28, 2009, respectively, as the inclusion of these common stock equivalents would have been anti-dilutive.
 
Stock-based Compensation
 
The fair values of stock option awards are determined using the Black-Sholes model. The compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period. The Company, beginning in 2006, has included a vesting period for most options granted. See Note 8 for a detailed discussion of the Company’s stock-based compensation plans.
 
Cash Equivalents
 
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
 
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
 
The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, receivables, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximates fair value because of the short-term nature of those instruments. The carrying amount and fair market value of the Company’s short-term investments are the same since short-term investments are recorded at fair value. Debt is recorded at the cash settlement value of the underlying notes and is not revalued.
 
Use of Estimates
 
The preparation of 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 consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Accordingly, results could differ from those estimates and assumptions.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
 
The following accounting pronouncements if implemented would have no effect on the financial statements of the Company.
 
ASU 2010-01, “Equity (Topic 505) — Accounting for Distributions to Shareholders with Components of Stock and Cash.” ASU 2010-01 was issued January 2010 and clarifies that the stock portion of a distribution to shareholders that allows them to elect to receive cash or stock with a potential limitation on the total amount of cash that all shareholders can elect to receive in the aggregate is considered a share issuance that is reflected in earnings per share prospectively and is not a stock dividend. ASU 2010-01 is effective for interim and annual periods ending on or after December 15, 2009, and should be applied on a retrospective basis. ASU 2010-01 had no impact on our consolidated financial statements.
 
ASU 2010-06, “Improving Disclosure about Fair Value Measurements,” was issued January 2010 and requires additional disclosures regarding fair value measurements, amends disclosures about post-retirement benefit plan assets and provides clarification regarding the level of disaggregation of fair value disclosures by investment class. The ASU is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for certain Level 3 activity disclosure requirements that will be effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2010. Adoption of ASU 2010-06 had no material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Darryl Horne Notes
 
On August 6, 2009, Horne International, Inc. entered into an Agreement to Transfer Property with Darryl K. Horne and The Susott Family Limited Partnership and 91 Hill Avenue, LLC. The Agreement provided for the Company’s transfer of the real property located at 91 Hill Avenue, Fort Walton Beach, Florida, to 91 Hill Avenue, LLC. In addition, the Company also issued to 91 Hill Avenue, LLC two million stock options with an exercise price equal to the greater of $0.10 or $0.25 less than the reported stock price one day prior to the exercise of the options. As consideration for the transfer of the real property and the aforementioned stock options, Darryl K. Horne and The Susott Family Limited Partnership each forgave certain secured and unsecured debt owed to each of them by the Company. Darryl K. Horne forgave both secured and unsecured debt owed to him by the Company in the amount of $750,000. The Susott Family Limited Partnership forgave secured debt owed to it by the Company in the amount of $1,000,000.
 
On August 7, 2009, the real property owned by Horne International, Inc. located at 91 Hill Avenue, Fort Walton Beach, Florida, was transferred to 91 Hill Avenue, LLC pursuant to the terms of the Agreement to Transfer Property dated August 6, 2009.
 
During 2008, the Company entered into three separate loan transactions with Darryl K. Horne, the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer. The first loan permitted the Company to borrow up to $525,000 at 8 percent interest rate. The interest is payable quarterly beginning in July 1, 2008, with principal payable upon demand. The note is unsecured and is not convertible into any Company securities. A portion of this loan was settled in connection with the 91 Hill Avenue transaction described above. As of June 27, 2010, the outstanding balance is $275,000 and accrued interest payable is $48,827.
 
In July 2008, the Company entered into a second loan transaction with Mr. Horne, for a working capital loan to the Company. The terms of the loan provide that the Company was able to borrow $500,000 at 8 percent interest, with such interest payable quarterly beginning in October 2008. Principal under the loan was payable in full at the earlier of (a) twelve (12) months from the loan closing date and (b) the sale of the Company's Ft Walton Beach, Florida, commercial property formerly utilized for SSSI's operations (the "SSSI Property"). The maturity date of the loan could be extended for an additional six (6) months under certain conditions, including the payment by the Company of a fee equal to one-half percent of the outstanding principal balance. Mr. Horne's loan was secured by a second deed of trust on the SSSI Property, which was junior in priority and subordinate to a first deed of trust securing the Company's obligations under the Revolving Line of Credit to Evan Auld-Susott, as agent. The loan was not convertible into any Company securities. The terms of the loan were approved by the Company's Board of Directors, including each disinterested director. This loan was discharged in full in connection with the 91 Hill Avenue transaction described above. There were no amounts outstanding under this loan at June 27, 2010.
 
On August 6, 2008, the Company entered into a receivables financing agreement with Mr. Horne. Under the terms of the agreement, Mr. Horne agreed to finance specific accounts receivable under a line of credit for up to $790,000 at an interest rate of 8.5 percent. The Company has taken draws of $220,000 and has accrued interest payable of $19,933 as of June 27, 2010. The loan is not convertible into any Company securities.
 
Evan Auld-Susott Mortgage Note
 
On April 10, 2008, the Company entered into a binding term sheet with Evan Auld-Susott as agent for The Susott FLP for the provision to the Company of a revolving line of credit. Evan Auld-Susott is a member of the Company's Board of Directors. Under the line of credit, the Company was able to borrow $1,000,000 at 12.5 percent interest upon the Company's certification to the lenders that the Company had fully exhausted all funds available to the Company pursuant to the $500,000 working capital loan from Darryl K. Horne, described above. Interest on the line of credit was payable quarterly beginning in October 2008 with principal payable in full at the earlier of (a) twelve (12) months from the line of credit closing date or (b) the sale of the SSSI Property. The maturity date of the line of credit could be extended for an additional six (6) months under certain conditions, including the payment by the Company of a fee equal to the greater of (i) $2,500 and (ii) one-half percent of the outstanding principal balance. The lender had a first deed of trust on the SSSI Property, which was senior in priority and superior to the second deed of trust in favor of Darryl K. Horne with respect to the working capital loan described above. The loan was not convertible into any Company securities. The terms of the line of credit were approved by the Company's Board of Directors, including each disinterested director.

Notes to (Unaudited) Consolidated Financial Statements

In July 2009, the Company deeded the SSSI property against 91 Hill Avenue, LLC, a limited liability company established by Darryl K. Horne and Evan Auld-Susott to take title to the property. In return for the property, Evan Auld-Susott released in full the $1,000,000 debt due under the April 10, 2008, revolving line of credit.
 
6.
LINES OF CREDIT
 
In December 2009, the Company entered into a two-year receivable noncancellable financing agreement with Wells Fargo Bank National Association under which the Company is able to factor certain eligible accounts receivable. The agreement calls for a minimum monthly fee of $3,000 for the term of the agreement. The Company is able to receive 85 percent of any invoices factored to the lender. As of June 27, 2010, the line of credit balance is $217,156.
 
7.
STOCK TRANSACTIONS
 
On March 23, 2010, the Company entered into a strategic partnership with Intelligent Decisions, Inc. (“Intelligent”). In connection with this partnership, the Company granted Intelligent options to purchase 8,333,333 shares of Company common stock as well as up to 12,500,000 restricted stock units. One half of these options (4,166,667 options) were exercisable immediately upon grant and the remaining 4,166,666 options are exercisable when the share price of Horne’s stock reaches $0.50 or the Company achieves annual revenue in the amount of $15,000,000, whichever is earlier. The options have an exercise price of $0.09 per share, the fair market value of the Company common stock on the date of grant. The restricted stock units will be issued in exchange for business support services.
 
For the six months ended June 27, 2010, the Company recorded stock option expense of $515,885 for the first half of the options. The remaining options will be expensed if and when it becomes probable that the Company is on track to meeting either performance condition. As of June 27, 2010, the Company has determined that it is not probable that Horne will meet the performance conditions. The Company will reassess the probability of whether the terms of the agreement are attainable on a quarterly basis. The Company will start to recognize expense when achievement of a performance condition becomes probable.
 
Under the terms of the CEECO acquisition agreement from 2005, the 913,242 shares of stock that were issued to Lou and Marilyn Rogers in March 2008 were subject to a share price guarantee. Those shares were issued at $0.219 per share. The average share price, calculated as the ten-day average closing share price centered on February 28, 2009, was $.0755. As a result the Company recorded a payable to the Rogers of $131,050 and reduced additional paid in capital by that same amount. A payable of $8,550 is outstanding at June 27, 2010.
 
8.
STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
 
The Company has a stock option plan available to compensate employees and directors as deemed appropriate by senior management. During the first six months of 2010, the Company granted no new stock options to employees.
 
The fair values of stock option awards are determined using the Black-Sholes model. The compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period. The Company, beginning in 2006, has included a vesting period for most options granted.

DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
 
The Company made the strategic decision to close the operations of its Spectrum Sciences and Software, Inc. subsidiary and Coast Engine & Equipment subsidiary in early 2008. Accordingly, the operating results of these two entities are included in discontinued operations for all years presented.
 
During 2009, the Company deeded one of the two real property sites to creditors who are affiliated parties in return for the release of $1.75 million of debt owed to the creditors by the Company. In February 2010, the Company, by Quitclaim Deed returned the second of the two real property sites to the mortgagors in return for a release of all obligations and claims under the Contract for Deed. As of June 27, 2010, the Company has no assets in discontinued operations.
 
The liabilities of discontinued operations at June 27, 2010, primarily consist of accrued liabilities and a residual debt. The interest rate on the residual debt is 7.1 percent.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 
ITEM 2.    MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 
The following discussion provides information which management believes is relevant to an assessment and an understanding of the Company’s operations and financial condition. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the attached unaudited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes as well as our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 27, 2009.
 
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
 
The matters discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K may constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors that may cause our actual results, activity levels, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, activity levels, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. In some cases, you can identify these statements by forward-looking words such as “could”, “expect”, “estimate”, “may”, “potential”, “will”, and “would”, or similar words. You should read statements that contain these words carefully because they discuss our future expectations, contain projections of our future results of operations or of our financial position, or state other forward-looking information. We believe it is important to communicate our future expectations to our investors. However, there may be events in the future that we are not able to predict or control accurately. The factors listed in the section captioned “Risk Factors,” contained in our Annual Report of Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 27, 2009, as well as any cautionary language in the Form 10-Q, provide examples of risks, uncertainties, and events that may cause our actual results to differ materially from the expectations we describe in our forward-looking statements.
 
Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, activity levels, performance or achievements. You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which apply only as of the date of this Form 10-Q. Subsequent events and developments may cause our views to change. While we may elect to update the forward-looking statements at some point in the future, we specifically disclaim any obligation to do so.
 
DESCRIPTION OF THE COMPANY
 
The Company provides a variety of services through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Horne Engineering Services, LLC. The Company focuses on providing program engineering, occupational safety and health, environmental sciences, acquisition and procurement, business process engineering, and public outreach. Our primary customer in this segment is the U.S. Government, with specific focus within the Departments of Homeland Security, Defense, and Transportation.
 
The Company has devoted a significant amount of resources to its partnership with Intelligent. The companies are currently exploring and developing numerous business opportunities. A principal purpose of the partnership has been the development of an information technology capability related to the Company’s core competencies. The Company expects this capability to enable it to further its goal of being a total solutions provider to its customers. The Company has recently entered into reseller agreements with Ingram Micro, Juniper, Cisco, and Lenovo related to the IT capability. The Company is pursuing similar agreements with IT product and equipment companies.
 
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
 
In our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 28, 2009, our most critical accounting policies and estimates upon which our financial status depends were identified as those relating to revenue recognition; stock-based compensation; net operating losses and tax credit carryforwards; and impairment of long-lived assets. We reviewed our policies and determined that those policies remain our most critical accounting policies for the six months ended June 27, 2010.
 
COMPARISON OF THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 27, 2010, AND JUNE 28, 2009
 
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the unaudited financial statements (and notes thereto) and other financial information of the Company appearing elsewhere in this report.

HORNE INTERNATIONAL, INC.
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 
Consolidated Overview (000’s)
 
   
Three months ended June,
 
   
2010
   
2009
 
Total revenue
  $ 850       100.0 %   $ 1,273       100.0 %
Gross profit
    175       20.5 %     364       28.6 %
Operating loss
    (133 )     -15.8 %   $ (11 )     -0.9 %
 
Revenue for the quarter ended June 27, 2010, decreased on a year-over-year basis by $423 or 33%. The main driver of the revenue decrease was $247 of second quarter 2009 real estate services revenue that was not repeated in the second quarter of 2010, a reduction of $66 in our homeland security work revenue, and a decrease of $55 in our Afghanistan contract revenue due to staffing reductions. Gross margin as a percentage of sales decreased from 2010 due to the lack of pure profit real estate services revenue in 2009.
 
Revenue for the third quarter of 2010 is expected to be approximately 15 percent higher than the second quarter of 2010. The primary reason for the expected increase is the Company’s receipt of an additional task order, its Blanket Purchase Agreement with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers in the Ft. Worth District. Gross margin is expected to increase slightly due to contract cost mix.
 
The overall operating loss increased in the second quarter of 2010 compared to the second quarter of 2009, primarily due to our real estate services contract that was terminated in October 2008. We received residual payments under that contract through June 2009.
 
COMPARISON OF SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 27, 2010, AND JUNE 28, 2009
 
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the unaudited financial statements (and notes thereto) and other financial information of the Company appearing elsewhere in this report.
 
Consolidated Overview (000’s)
 
   
Six months ended June,
 
   
2010
   
2009
 
Total revenue
  $ 1,842       100.0 %     2,224       100.0 %
Gross profit
    471       25.6 %     693       31.2 %
Operating loss
    (699 )     -34.9 %     (144 )     -6.5 %

Revenue for the six months ended June 27, 2010, decreased on a year-over-year basis by $382 or 17%. The main driver of the revenue decrease was $247 in 2009 real estate services revenue that was not repeated in 2010, a reduction of $66 in our homeland security work revenue, and a decrease of $55 in our Afghanistan contract revenue due to staffing reductions. Gross margin as a percentage of sales decreased in 2010 due to the lack of pure profit real estate services revenue in 2009.
 
The overall operating loss increased in the first six months of 2010 compared to the first six months of 2009 primarily due to the termination of our real estate services contract in October 2008. We received residual payments under that contract through June 2009.
 
Discontinued Operations
 
During the first quarter of 2008, the Company made the decision to close two of its operating subsidiaries, Spectrum Sciences and Software, Inc. and Coast Engine & Equipment Co. Spectrum operations ceased in May 2008 and CEECO ceased operations in February 2008. The 2010 discontinued operations activity relates to legal costs incurred with respect to our ongoing litigation issues described in our 2009 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
 
Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
Cash and cash equivalents totaled approximately $47,000 at June 27, 2010. Our cash position has improved during the quarter due to the proceeds of $271,000 from the Wells Fargo line of credit described below.

HORNE INTERNATIONAL, INC.
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 
In December 2009, the Company entered into a two-year receivable noncancellable financing agreement with Wells Fargo Bank National Association under which the Company is able to factor certain eligible accounts receivable. The agreement calls for a minimum monthly fee of $3,000 for the term of the agreement. The Company is able to receive 85 percent of any invoices factored to the lender. As of June 27, 2010, the line of credit balance is $217,156.
 
On March 22, 2010, the Company entered into a strategic partnership with Intelligent. The partnership will allow the Company to have a cash line of credit in the amount of $250,000 against business/projects jointly developed by Intelligent and the Company. This line of credit will be secured by the Company’s eligible Accounts Receivable on such projects or the Company’s full-time equivalent employees arising after the inception of the partnership that are billed against projects as decided by Intelligent in its sole discretion. No cash will be advanced by Intelligent until Intelligent receives a perfected security interest (i.e., first lien on the orders to be advanced under this cash line of credit). As of June 27, 2010, no funds have been advanced to the Company under this line of credit.
 
As discussed in our 2009 Form 10-K, the Company has substantial liquidity challenges. While we continue to work towards profitability, there is a significant uncertainty that the Company will have sufficient cash flow to sustain its operations.
 
The Company continues to pursue additional funding sources in the event that funds from operations and financing are not sufficient to provide for our operations. These funding sources would primarily be in the form of bank credit lines. Given our past financial performance, the costs and fees associated with funding sources may be more expensive than the Company has historically paid. The Company can not determine if the funds available from operations will be sufficient for any acquisitions or facility expansions that may be undertaken during the year. Should the Company make any acquisitions or expansions, other sources of financing may be required.
 
ITEM 3.     QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
 
In addition to the risks inherent in our operations, we are exposed to financial, market, political and economic risks. The following discussion provides additional detail regarding our exposure to interest rates and foreign exchange rates.
 
Interest Rate Risk
 
At June 27, 2010, the Company had a revolving credit facility. We have not historically mitigated our exposure to fluctuations in interest rates by entering into interest rate hedge agreements, nor do we have any plans to do so in the immediate future.
 
Foreign Exchange Risk
 
We currently do not have any foreign currency risk and accordingly, estimate that an immediate 10 percent change in foreign exchange rates would have no impact on our reported net loss. We do not currently utilize any derivative financial instruments to hedge foreign currency risks.
 
ITEM 4.      CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
 
Based on management’s evaluation (with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Interim Chief Financial Officer (CFO)), as of the end of the period covered by this report, our CEO and CFO have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act)), are effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and is accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
