Item 9.01 | Financial Statements and Exhibits |
Effective January 12, 2007, UCN, Inc., entered into the Agreement and Plan of Acquisition with BenchmarkPortal, Inc., a California corporation (BMP), and certain controlling stockholders of BMP, as reported by UCN in a report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on January 19, 2007. UCN closed the acquisition of BMP on February 9, 2007, which was reported in a current report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 13, 2007. Through the acquisition UCN acquired a call center survey and analysis business, operated under the name of ECHO. Prior to the closing of the acquisition BMP distributed to its stockholders on a pro rata basis cash and property with a total value of approximately $184,000 and sold certain assets not used in operating the ECHO business at a total purchase price of $91,000, which for accounting purposes represented a discontinued operation of BMP following the acquisition.
In the current report on Form 8-K filed February 13, 2007, UCN presented the following financial information on BMP:
| Balance Sheets as of December 31, 2005 and 2004 (Audited) and September 30, 2006 (Unaudited) |
| Statements of Operations for the Years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 (Audited) and for the Nine-Month Periods ended September 30, 2006 and 2005 (Unaudited) |
| Statements of Stockholders Equity for the Years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 (Audited) and for the Nine-Month Period ended September 30, 2006 (Unaudited) |
| Statements of Cash Flows for the Years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 (Audited) and for the Nine-Month Periods ended September 30, 2006 and 2005 (Unaudited) |
In addition, UCN presented an unaudited proforma combined condensed balance sheet as of September 30, 2006, and unaudited proforma combined condensed statements of operations for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2006 and year ended December 31, 2005, giving effect to the acquisition of BMP and the assets distributed and sold by BMP prior to the acquisition.
UCN is filing this amendment to the Form 8-K originally filed February 13, 2007, for the purpose of updating the financial information presented on BMP and the proforma financial information through the end of 2006. Due to the decision in 2006 to sell the assets disposed of at the beginning of 2007, the disposition and its effects are treated as a discontinued operation for BMP for the 2006 year-end financial statements. Accordingly, certain items in the 2005 financial statements originally filed in February 2005 have been recast to reflect the discontinued operation. We are not including 2004 financial statements for BMP in this amended filing because we are not required to do so under Rule 3-05(b) of Regulation S-X.

This amended report includes the following financial statements of BMP and proforma financial information:

To the Stockholders and Board of Directors of
BenchmarkPortal, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of BenchmarkPortal, Inc. (the Company) as of December 31, 2006 and 2005, and the related statements of operations, stockholders equity, and cash flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Companys management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Companys internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, such financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2006 and 2005, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, in 2006 the Company changed its method of accounting for stock-based compensation to conform to Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123(R), Shared-Based Payment.
As discussed in Note 13 to the financial statements, during the fourth quarter of 2006, the Company entered into an agreement to sell the Portal division in 2007. Accordingly, the financial position and results of operations of the Portal division as of and for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005 are reflected as discontinued operations in the accompanying financial statements.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2006 AND 2005
1. | DESCRIPTION OF THE COMPANY AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
OrganizationBenchmarkPortal, Inc. (the Company), a California corporation, was incorporated in November 1998 and began operations in Santa Maria, California, in January 1999. The Company has been dedicated to providing products, services, consulting and certification to the customer contact center industry, commonly called the call center industry.
The Company has two operating divisions, the Echo Division and the Portal Division. Effective February 9, 2007, the Company was sold to UCN, Inc. (see Note 14). Prior to the sale of the Company to UCN, the Portal Division was discontinued and the assets and liabilities were either sold or distributed to the Companys shareholders (see Note 13). The Portal Division was devoted to benchmarking and related activities for contact centers.
The larger division, Echo, represents the Companys continuing operations. Echo stands for Every Customer Has Opinions. Echo resulted from a specific request from eBay to design, create and deploy a comprehensive customer satisfaction measurement solution for its customer contact centers. As a result of this, Echo provides hosted satisfaction survey products for the customer contact sector, which are used:
a. | To measure customer satisfaction in near-real time, right down to the call center agent level. |
b. | To monitor and coach agents. |
c. | To act as fulcrum for customer recovery systems (i.e. to recoup dissatisfied customers) by pro-actively contacting customers who rate their interaction poorly. |
Basis of PresentationThe accompanying financial statements are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (US GAAP).
Discontinued OperationsThe Company accounts for discontinued operations under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets (SFAS 144). SFAS 144 requires that a component of an entity that has been disposed of or is classified as held for sale and has operations and cash flows that can be clearly distinguished from the rest of the entity be reported as discontinued operations. Accordingly, in conjunction with the decision in the fourth quarter of 2006 to sell the Portal Division, the Company has reported in its 2006 and 2005 financial statements the Portal Division as discontinued operations (see Note 13).
Use of Estimates in Preparation of Financial StatementsThe 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 financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
- 10 -
Cash and Cash EquivalentsFor purposes of the statements of cash flows, all highly liquid assets with an original maturity at date of purchase of three months or less are considered to be cash equivalents.
The Company maintains its cash in bank deposit accounts which, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes it is not exposed to any significant credit risk on cash and cash equivalents. (Note 13)
Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful AccountsAccounts receivable is comprised of amounts billed to customers, net of an allowance for uncollectible amounts. The allowance represents estimated losses resulting from customers failure to make required payments. The allowance for doubtful accounts is determined by management based on specific identification and a percentage of the aged receivables. Accounts receivable are written off against the allowance when the related customers are no longer making required payments and all other methods of collection have been exhausted.
Barter CreditsThe Company receives barter credits in the form of airline dollars as payment for goods and services from a major airline customer. Revenue from barter credits was $120,000 and $80,000, respectively, for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005. Such barter credits are recorded in the financial statements at fair value based on the goods or services provided in exchange for the credits. All revenues earned by the Company whether paid for through barter credits or other monetary consideration are recognized in accordance with the Companys established revenue recognition policies.
The Company evaluates the carrying value of barter credits whenever events or circumstances indicate the existence of a possible impairment and recognizes impairment when the fair value of barter credits is less than carrying value or it is probable that the Company will not be able to use all of the remaining barter credits. Management believes the carrying value of barter credits is recoverable because airline dollars can be redeemed for any purpose (business travel, bonus compensation to employees, etc.) against the airlines published airfares, there are no blackout periods or other significant restrictions on the use of the credits and historically the Company has been able to use these credits to compensate employees.
Property and EquipmentProperty and equipment is stated at cost. Major additions and improvements are capitalized, while minor repairs and maintenance costs are expensed when incurred. Depreciation and amortization are computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets as follows:
Office equipment |
2 to 5 years | |
Computer hardware and purchased software |
2 to 4 years | |
Computer software (developed internally) |
3 years | |
Interactive voice response equipment installed on customer sites |
Shorter of lease term or 4 years | |
Furniture and fixtures |
5 years |
In accordance with Statement of Position 98-1, Accounting for Costs of Computer Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use, the Company has capitalized certain costs incurred for the development of internal use software. These costs include the costs associated with coding and software configuration. During the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, the Company did not capitalize any internal use software development costs.
Accounts PayableAccounts payable consist of normal trade payables.
- 11 -
Net Income (Loss) Per Common ShareBasic net income (loss) per common share (Basic EPS) excludes dilution and is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year. Diluted net income (loss) per common share (Diluted EPS) reflects the potential dilution that could occur if stock options or other common stock equivalents were exercised or converted into common stock. Common stock equivalents were not included in Diluted EPS from discontinued operations for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005 (see Note 7).
Stock-Based CompensationThe Company maintains a 2000 Stock Incentive Plan (the Plan) for the benefit of certain employees under which 3,500,000 shares of common stock may be issued. Both incentive and nonqualified stock options may be issued under the Plan. Nonqualified stock options, incentive stock options, and stock options granted to holders of 10% or more of the combined voting power of the Companys stock shall not have an exercise price that is less than 85%, 100%, and 110% of the fair value of the Companys shares of common stock on the date of grant, respectively. Each option shall become fully exercisable no later than four years from the date of grant. While stock options may be granted with varying expiration dates, stock options shall not have an expiration date that exceeds ten years from the date of grant.
In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123(R), Share-Based Payment, which amended SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock Based Compensation, which the Company adopted on January 1, 2006. This amendment requires the Company to recognize as compensation expense the fair value of stock options granted for compensation to employees (fair value method). Prior to this amendment and in accordance with SFAS No. 123, the Company elected to recognize as compensation expense the intrinsic value of stock options granted as compensation to employees (intrinsic value method), and to disclose as pro forma compensation the fair value of those stock options. The Company recognizes as compensation expense the fair value of stock options granted as compensation to nonemployees.
During the year ended December 31, 2006, the Company recognized employee compensation expense of $3,432 and $380 in nonemployee compensation expense under the fair value method as required by SFAS No. 123(R).
During the year ended December 31, 2005, the Company recognized $75 in employee compensation expense under the intrinsic value method and $211 in nonemployee compensation expense under the fair value method. Had the Company elected to recognize employee compensation expense using the fair value method, the Companys net income and income per share would have been as follows for the year ended December 31, 2005 (in thousands, except share data):

As of December 31, 2006, the Company has unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested stock options of approximately $11,000. The Company expects to recognize this compensation cost over a weighted-average period of 2.9 years.
The Company granted stock options during the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005. The Company has estimated the fair value of options granted using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The weighted average fair value of the options granted and the assumptions used to estimate fair value are as follows:

Income TaxesThe Company recognizes a liability or asset for the deferred income tax consequences of all temporary differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts in the financial statements that will result in taxable or deductible amounts in future years when the reported amounts of the assets and liabilities are recovered or settled. These deferred income tax assets or liabilities are measured using the enacted tax rates that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. Recognition of deferred tax assets is limited to amounts considered by management to be more likely than not of realization in future periods.
Revenue RecognitionRevenue is recognized once persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the Companys fee is fixed or determinable, and collection is probable. The Company offers the following products and services:
| The Company offers ECHO model, a customer satisfaction survey tool to call centers that collects, analyzes and reports real-time customer feedback. ECHO model is offered via one-year contracts that include an initial setup fee and monthly usage fees. These contracts automatically renew annually until terminated by either party to the contract. Revenue associated with the setup fees is recognized ratably over the expected life of the contract. In addition, usage fees are recognized monthly as earned. |
| The Company offers long-term consulting and research project services to call centers, typically for a fixed fee that is set in advance of the engagement. Revenues from these fixed-fee consulting engagements are deferred and recognized over the engagement period on a percentage of completion basis. |
| The Company offers various reporting tools to call centers that collect, analyze and report call center statistics for peer group benchmarking and best-practice development. These reports are offered via individual purchases or via annual subscription. Revenues from individual purchases are recognized upon delivery of the reports. Revenues from subscriptions are recognized ratably over the subscription periods. |
| The Company offers various reporting tools to call centers that collect, analyze and report call center statistics for peer group benchmarking and best-practice development. These reports are offered via individual purchases or via annual subscription. Revenues from individual purchases are recognized upon delivery of the reports. Revenues from subscriptions are recognized ratably over the subscription periods. |
| The Company offers various other products and services, including evaluation and certification of call center operations, training and certification of call center personnel, a call center agent satisfaction survey tool (FairCompare), short-term consulting, speech events and workshops, and books and publications. Revenues from these products and services are recognized upon shipment of the product or completion of the service. |
Long-Lived AssetsIn accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, the Company evaluates the carrying value of long-lived assets when events or circumstances indicate the existence of a possible impairment, based on projected undiscounted cash flows, and recognizes impairment when such cash flows will be less than the carrying values. Measurement of the amounts of impairments, if any, is based upon the difference between carrying value and fair value. Management believes the net carrying amount of long-lived assets will be recovered by future cash flows generated from its products and services.

Recent Accounting PronouncementsIn September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements, which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in US GAAP and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This Statement will be effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the requirements of this new standard and has not concluded its analysis on the impact to the Companys financial position or results of operations.
In June 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, (FIN 48) an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. FIN 48 prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The interpretation requires that the Company recognize in the financial statements, the impact of a tax position, if that position is more likely than not of being sustained on audit, based on the technical merits of the position. FIN 48 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods and disclosure. The provisions of FIN 48 are effective beginning January 1, 2007 with the cumulative effect of the change in accounting principle recorded as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings. FIN 48 will be adopted in 2007 and it is not expected to have a material impact on the Companys financial statements.
Fair Value of Financial InstrumentsThe carrying amounts reported in the accompanying balance sheets for cash, receivables, and accounts payable approximate fair values because of the immediate or short-term maturities of these financial instruments. The fair value of the Companys capital lease obligation also approximates fair value based on current rates for similar debt.

8. | CAPITAL STOCK |
The Board of Directors is authorized to issue no par common and preferred stock. The number of authorized common shares is 25,000,000. The number of authorized preferred shares is 5,822,000 of which 1,280,000 shares are designated Series A Convertible Preferred Stock and 4,542,000 shares are designated Series B Convertible Preferred Stock. The significant rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions of the common and preferred stock are set forth below:
| Each Series A and B Convertible Preferred share is entitled to that number of votes equal to the number of whole shares of Common Stock into which such shares are then convertible. |
| In the event of a voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, all assets and funds of the corporation shall be distributed first ratably to the Series A and B Convertible Preferred shareholders up to their respective preferential amounts of $.50 and $.15 plus all accrued but unpaid dividends thereon per share, respectively. The sale discussed in Note 14 qualifies as a voluntary liquidation. |
- 18 -
| Each share of Series A and B Convertible Preferred Stock is convertible, without the payment of any additional consideration, by the holder thereof and at the option of the holder thereof, at any time after the date of issuance of such share, into that number of shares of Common Stock as is determined by dividing the Conversion Price ($.50 and $.15 at December 31, 2006 in the case of the Series A and Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, respectively) by $.50, in the case of the Series A Convertible Preferred stock and $.15, in the case of the Series B Convertible Preferred stock. Series A and B Convertible Preferred Stock automatically converts into Common Stock upon the closing of a firm commitment underwritten public offering pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended covering the offer and sale of the Companys Common stock if the per share price is not less than $1.25 (as adjusted for stock dividends, stock splits and similar capital modifications) and the aggregate purchase price of the Common Stock sold, before expenses, pursuant to the registration equals or exceeds $15,000,000. Automatic conversion shall also occur upon the affirmative vote of a majority of the aggregate number of shares of a particular preferred stock series. |

14. | SUBSEQUENT EVENTS |
The following actions were taken by the Company with regard to the termination and transfer of the Portal Division prior to sale of the Company to UCN:
| The license with the Purdue Research Foundation (PRF) covering the use of the name Center for Customer-Driven Quality, as well as inbound call center benchmarking surveys and benchmarking data was cancelled. |
| The intellectual property of the Portal Division was sold (Asset Sale) to a new company (New Company) formed by certain of the current shareholders; the Asset Sale was priced to reflect the third party valuation performed by an independent third party valuation firm, which resulted in a value of $91,000. This sale was evidenced by a note (the Note) for $91,000 payable on a quarterly basis over three years, starting April 30, 2008 and bearing 6% interest; |
| Approximately 15 customer contracts and the associated accounts receivable and deferred revenue of the Portal Division were transferred to the New Company, including in-depth Reality Check Surveys, Call Center Certification, custom consulting and research studies / best practices studies; |
| Certain fixed assets with a book value of $7,000 associated with Portal Division operations were transferred to the New Company. |
| The Company distributed to the stockholders on a pro rata basis cash, receivables, payables and property. The cash distribution of $184,000 was transferred into a shareholder representative account to satisfy all remaining liabilities of the stockholders. After all liabilities are satisfied under the acquisition agreement, the shareholder representative will distribute any remaining funds to stockholders on a pro rata basis. |
On February 9, 2007, the Company was sold to UCN, Inc. The terms of the sale are as follows:
| $500,000 paid in cash |
| Issuance of 1,535,836 shares of UCN, Inc. restricted common stock valued at $4,500,000. |
| UCN agreed to pay the former BenchmarkPortal shareholders (the Shareholders) $2,000,000 due in 36 equal monthly installments of $55,556, subject to adjustment, if monthly recurring revenue from the sale of ECHO services to customers of the ECHO services as of the date of the closing |
- 22 -
falls, after closing, below $265,766 per month (as adjusted down over the payment period based on a 2% annual attrition rate) the monthly payment will be adjusted down, dollar for dollar, for each monthly shortfall during the first two years of the payment period and 50 cents for each dollar of monthly shortfall in the last year. However, for any months during the payment period that the monthly recurring revenue from the ECHO legacy customers exceeds the required amount, the excess will be accumulated and applied to reduce a monthly shortfall before any reduction in the monthly payment and will also be applied to recoup the portion of any payments in prior months not made because of a shortfall. Payment of the $2,000,000 (or lesser adjusted amount) is secured by the ECHO software acquired by Echo Metrics through the merger. |
| UCN also agreed to pay to the former BenchmarkPortal shareholders a contingent quarterly earnout based on monthly recurring revenue from the sale of ECHO services during the four-year period after closing. If only monthly recurring revenue for each calendar quarter after closing exceeds a base amount of $900,000, UCN will pay to the Shareholders 15% of the revenue in excess of the base for the first year, 16% of the revenue in excess of the base for the second year, 18% of the revenue in excess of the base for the third year, and 20% of the revenue in excess of the base for the last year. The aggregate amount of the contingent quarterly payments cannot exceed $7.0 million. |
If after giving effect to the distribution of the contingent quarterly payment for a given quarter the total value of the UCN stock issued to Shareholders is less than 40% of the total consideration paid to date, then the payment for that quarter will be made in shares of common stock of UCN (based on market value at the time of payment) to the extent necessary so that the total consideration paid to the Shareholders is 40% common stock of UCN.
Upon closing of the sale, UCN, Inc. engaged the services of a former shareholder of the Company as a consultant under a 12 month agreement that provides for payment of a monthly retainer of $8,000 to be applied to work performed at the rate of $250 per hour. In addition, the former shareholder will also receive a warrant that vests in equal monthly installments over the first six months of the consulting agreement and is exercisable over a term of three years to buy a total of 60,000 shares of UCN, Inc. common stock at an exercise price of $2.98 per share. The consulting agreement may be terminated by either party on 30 days advance notice.
In addition, UCN, Inc. has entered into employment agreements with two former officers and directors of the Company. One will be responsible for promoting ECHO service sales and be paid an annual salary of $130,000 and receive a commission on sales. The other will work in ECHO service development and be paid an annual salary of $110,000. Each will be employed on a full-time basis for one and two year terms, respectively.
The Company had an outstanding warrant granted in November 2000, which allowed the holder to purchase up to 100,000 shares of the Companys common stock at an exercise price of $.05 per share. Prior to the sale of the Company, the warrant was exercised in a cashless transaction and the holder received 82,876 shares of common stock.

Under the agreement, UCN paid form BMP shareholders $500,000 in cash and issued 1,535,836 shares of UCN common stock at $2.93 per share for a total initial purchase price of $5.0 million.
UCN also agreed to pay BMP stockholders $2.0 million of additional cash in 36 equal monthly installments of $55,556, subject to adjustment under certain circumstances. Specifically, if monthly recurring revenue from the sale of ECHO services to customers of the ECHO services as of the date of closing falls, after closing, below $265,766 per month (as adjusted down over the payment period based on a 2% annual attrition rate) the monthly payment will be adjusted down dollar for dollar for each monthly shortfall during the first two years of the payment period and 50 cents for each dollar of monthly shortfall in the last year. However, for any months during the payment period that the monthly recurring revenue from the ECHO legacy customers exceeds the required amount, the excess will be accumulated and applied to reduce a monthly shortfall before any reduction in the monthly payment and will also be applied to recoup the portion of any payments in prior months not made because of a shortfall. Payment of the $2.0 million (or lesser adjusted amount) is secured by the ECHO software acquired by Echo Metrics through the merger.
In addition to the $2.0 million cash payments, UCN agreed to pay to the BMP stockholders a contingent quarterly earn out based on monthly recurring revenue from the sale of ECHO services during the four-year period after closing. If only monthly recurring revenue for each calendar quarter after closing exceeds a base amount of $900,000, UCN will pay to the Security Holders 15% of the revenue in excess of the base for the first year, 16% of the revenue in excess of the base for the second year, 18% of the revenue in excess of the base for the third year, and 20% of the revenue in excess of the base for the last year. The aggregate amount of the contingent quarterly payments cannot exceed $7.0 million. If after giving effect to the distribution of the contingent quarterly payment for a given quarter the total value of the UCN stock issued to the Security Holders is less than 40% of the total consideration paid to date, then the payment for that quarter will be made in shares of common stock of UCN (based on market value at the time of payment) to the extent necessary so that the total consideration paid to the Security Holders is 40% common stock of UCN.
