NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
1.   BASIS OF PRESENTATION
 
    The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and include all adjustments that, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the results of the periods presented. All such adjustments are considered of a normal recurring nature. Quarterly results of operations are not necessarily indicative of annual results.
 
    Certain financial information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted. These unaudited condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2005 and the notes thereto contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005.
 
2.   REVENUE RECOGNITION
 
    The Company’s revenue is generated from three sources:
    the sale of information systems, which includes software, conversion and installation services, hardware, peripherals, forms and supplies.
 
    the provision of system support services, which includes software application support, hardware maintenance, continuing education, application service provider (“ASP”) products, and internet service provider (“ISP”) products.
 
    the provision of outsourcing services, which includes electronic billing, statement processing, and business office outsourcing.
Depending upon the terms of the contract, revenue is recognized in accordance with SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) No. 101, Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements, as amended by SAB No. 104, Revenue Recognition, and the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants Statement of Position (SOP) 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition, which states that revenue should be recognized when persuasive evidence of an agreement exists, the product or service has been delivered, fees and prices are fixed and determinable, collectibility is probable, and when all other significant obligations have been fulfilled.
License revenue in connection with license agreements for proprietary software is recognized upon delivery of the software, providing collection is considered probable, the fee is fixed or determinable, there is evidence of an arrangement, and vendor specific objective evidence (VSOE) exists with respect to any undelivered elements of the arrangement. For multiple-element arrangements, the Company recognizes revenue under the residual method as permitted by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants Statement of Position (SOP) 98-9, Modification of SOP 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition, with Respect to Certain Transactions, whereby (1) the total fair value of the undelivered elements, as indicated by VSOE, is deferred and subsequently recognized in accordance with SOP 97-2 and (2) the difference between the total arrangement fee and the amount deferred for the undelivered elements is recognized as revenue related to the delivered elements.
Revenue derived from maintenance contracts primarily includes software application support, hardware maintenance, continuing education and related services. Maintenance contracts are typically sold for a separate fee with initial contractual periods ranging from one to three years with renewal for additional periods thereafter. Maintenance revenue is recognized ratably over the term of the maintenance agreement. In situations where all or a portion of the maintenance fee is bundled with the license fee, VSOE for maintenance is determined based on prices when sold separately.
Revenue for hardware is recognized under SAB No. 104. Under SAB No. 104, revenue is recognized provided that persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, the fee is fixed or determinable, and collectibility is reasonably assured. For hardware, delivery is considered to have occurred upon shipment provided that risk of loss has been transferred to the customer.
Revenue for ISP, ASP, and outsourcing services are recognized in the period in which the services are performed.

4.   INVESTMENTS
 
    The Company accounts for investments in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 115, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities. Accordingly, investments are classified as available-for-sale securities and are reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses excluded from earnings and reported in a separate component of shareholder’s equity. The Company’s management determines the appropriate classifications of investments in fixed maturity securities at the time of acquisition and re-evaluates the classifications at each balance sheet date. The Company’s investments in fixed maturity securities are classified as available-for-sale.
 
    Investments are comprised of the following at September 30, 2006:

    The Company presents both basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) amounts. Basic EPS is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period presented. Diluted EPS amounts are based upon the weighted average number of common and common equivalent shares outstanding during the period presented. The difference between basic and diluted EPS is solely attributable to stock options. The Company uses the treasury stock method to calculate the impact of outstanding stock options. For the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2006, these dilutive shares were 72,011 and 83,456 respectively. For the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2005, these dilutive shares were 91,789 and 87,200 respectively.

7.   STOCK BASED COMPENSATION
 
    Effective January 1, 2006, the Company adopted the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (Revised 2004), Share Based Payment (SFAS No. 123R). SFAS No. 123R establishes accounting for stock-based awards exchanged for employee services. Accordingly, stock-based compensation cost is measured at grant date based on the fair value of the award, and is recognized as an expense over the employee’s requisite service period. The Company previously applied Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related Interpretations and provided pro forma disclosures of SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock Based Compensation. The Company elected to adopt the modified prospective application method as provided by SFAS No. 123R, and, accordingly, prior periods are not restated for the effects of SFAS No. 123R. The Company recorded compensation costs as the requisite service rendered for the unvested portion of previously issued awards that remain outstanding at the initial date of adoption and any awards issued, modified, repurchased, or cancelled after the effective date of SFAS 123R.

  $ 0.02     $ 0.06  
 
           
Prior to adopting SFAS 123R, the Company presented all tax benefits resulting from the exercise of stock options as operating cash flows in the Statement of Cash Flows. SFAS 123R requires cash flows resulting from excess tax benefits to be classified as a part of cash flows from financing activities. Excess tax benefits are realized tax benefits from tax deductions for exercised options in excess of the deferred tax asset attributable to stock compensation costs for such options. As a result of adopting SFAS 123R, $199,756 of excess tax benefits for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 have been classified as a financing cash inflow.
2002 Stock Option Plan
Under the 2002 Stock Option Plan, the Company has authorized the issuance of equity-based awards for up to 865,333 shares of common stock to provide additional incentive to employees and officers. Pursuant to the plan, the Company can grant either incentive or non-qualified stock options. Options to purchase common stock under the 2002 Stock Option Plan have been granted to Company employees with an exercise price equal to the fair market value of the underlying shares on the date of grant.
Stock options granted under the 2002 Stock Option Plan to executive officers of the Company become vested as to all of the shares covered by such grant on the fifth anniversary of the grant date and expire on the seventh anniversary of the grant date. Stock options granted under the 2002 Stock Option Plan to employees other than executive officers become vested as to 50% of the shares covered by the option grant on the third anniversary of the grant date and as to 100% of such shares on the fifth anniversary of the grant date. In addition, options become vested upon termination of employment resulting from death, disability or retirement. Such options expire on the seventh anniversary of the grant date.
Under the methodology of SFAS No. 123, the fair value of the Company’s stock options was estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The multiple option approach was used, with assumptions for expected option life of 5 years and 44% expected volatility for the market price of the Company’s stock in 2002. An estimated dividend yield of 3% was used. The risk-free rate of return was determined to be 2.79% in 2002. No options have been granted in 2006 and no options were granted in 2005, 2004 or 2003.
As required under SFAS 123R, the reported net income and earnings per share for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005 have been presented to reflect the impact had the Company been required to include the amortization of the Black-Scholes option value as an expense. The pro forma amounts are as follows:

The aggregate intrinsic value in the above table represents the total pre-tax intrinsic value (the difference between the Company’s closing stock price on the last trading date of the third quarter of 2006 and the exercise price, multiplied by the number of options.) The amount of aggregate intrinsic value will change based on the fair market value of the Company’s stock.
The aggregate intrinsic value of options exercised during the quarters ended September 30, 2006 and September 30, 2005 was $87,672 and $195,487 respectively. The aggregate intrinsic value of options exercised during the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and September 30, 2005 was $506,865 and $2,255,151 respectively.
As of September 30, 2006, there was $230,410 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested share-based compensation arrangements granted under the existing stock option plan. This cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.0 year.
2005 Restricted Stock Plan
On January 27, 2006, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors approved the grant of 116,498 shares of restricted stock, effective January 30, 2006, to certain executive officers of the Company. The grant date fair value was $42.91 per share. The restricted stock vests in five equal annual installments commencing on the first anniversary of the date of grant.
On May 17, 2006, the Company’s CEO, David A. Dye, resigned his position as CEO. Upon resignation, 23,299 shares of restricted stock which had been granted to him under the 2005 Restricted Stock Plan were forfeited. The forfeiture of theses shares resulted in the reversal of previously recognized stock compensation expense of $51,076.
On May 17, 2006, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors approved the grant of 17,810 shares of restricted stock, effective May 17, 2006, to the Michael Jones, the newly named Chief Operating Officer of the Company.

Deferred Compensation
On May 17, 2002, Kenny Muscat, one of the Company’s directors and a principal stockholder sold 66,667 shares of common stock to J. Boyd Douglas, Jr., one of the Company’s directors and its current Chief Executive Officer (CEO), for a price of $13.20 per share. The share price was determined by an independent valuation of the fair market value of the shares. A promissory note was delivered for the entire purchase price. The promissory note bears interest at the applicable rate for federal income tax purposes, and the entire principal balance is due five years after the date of the stock sale. As a part of the same transaction, Mr. Muscat also transferred to Mr. Douglas 19,333 shares of common stock for $1.00. These shares are subject to a mandatory transfer obligation under which Mr. Douglas will be required to transfer the shares back to Mr. Muscat in the event Mr. Douglas’ employment with the Company terminates for certain reasons prior to the fifth anniversary of the transaction date. The mandatory transfer obligation lapses as to 20% of the shares on each anniversary of the transaction date over the five year restriction period.

9.   RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
 
    In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, (“FIN 48”). FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in a company’s financial statements in accordance with FASB Statement No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. FIN 48 requires a company to determine whether it is more likely than not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination based upon the technical merits of the position. If the more-likely-than-not threshold is met, a company must measure the tax position to determine the amount to recognize in the financial statements. FIN 48 is effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2007. The Company is currently evaluating FIN 48 and the potential impact on its financial statements has not been determined.
 
    In September 2006, the SEC staff issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 108, Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements (“SAB 108”). SAB 108 was issued to provide consistency between how registrants quantify financial statement misstatements.
 
    Historically, there have been two widely-used methods for quantifying the effects of financial statement misstatements. These methods are referred to as the “roll-over” and “iron curtain” method. The roll-over method quantifies the amount by which the current year income statement is misstated. Exclusive reliance on an income statement approach can result in the accumulation of errors on the balance sheet that may not have been material to any individual income statement, but which may misstate one or more balance sheet accounts. The iron curtain method quantifies the error as the cumulative amount by which the current year balance sheet is misstated. Exclusive reliance on a balance sheet approach can result in disregarding the effects of errors in the current year income statement that results from the correction of an error existing in previously issued financial statements. We currently use the roll-over method for quantifying identified financial statement misstatements.
 
    SAB 108 established an approach that requires quantification of financial statement misstatements based on the effects of the misstatement on each of the company’s financial statements and the related financial statement disclosures. This approach is commonly referred to as the “dual approach” because it requires quantification of errors under both the roll-over and iron curtain methods.
 
    SAB 108 allows registrants to initially apply the dual approach either by (1) retroactively adjusting prior financial statements as if the dual approach had always been used or by (2) recording the cumulative effect of initially applying the dual approach as adjustments to the carrying values of assets and liabilities as of January 1, 2006 with an offsetting adjustment recorded to the opening balance of retained earnings. Use of this “cumulative effect” transition method requires detailed disclosure of the nature and amount of each individual error being corrected through the cumulative adjustment and how and when it arose.
 
    We will initially apply SAB 108 using the cumulative effect transition method in connection with the preparation of our annual financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2006. The Company is currently evaluating SAB 108 and the potential impact on its financial statements has not been determined.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
     You should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations together with the unaudited condensed financial statements and related notes appearing elsewhere herein.
     This discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the “safe harbor” provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements can be identified generally by the use of forward-looking terminology and words such as “expects,” “anticipates,” “estimates,” “believes,” “predicts,” “intends,” “plans,” “potential,” “may,” “continue,” “should,” “will” and words of comparable meaning. Without limiting the generality of the preceding statement, all statements in this report relating to estimated and projected earnings, margins, costs, expenditures, cash flows, growth rates and future financial results are forward-looking statements. We caution investors that any such forward-looking statements are only predictions and are not guarantees of future performance. Certain risks, uncertainties and other factors may cause actual results to differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements. Such factors may include:
    overall business and economic conditions affecting the healthcare industry;
 
    saturation of our target market and hospital consolidations;
 
    changes in customer purchasing priorities and demand for information technology systems;
 
    competition with companies that have greater financial, technical and marketing resources than we have;
 
    failure to develop new technology and products in response to market demands;
 
    fluctuations in quarterly financial performance due to, among other factors, timing of customer installations;
 
    failure of our products to function properly resulting in claims for medical losses;
 
    government regulation of our products and customers, including changes in healthcare policy affecting Medicare reimbursement rates; and
 
    interruptions in our power supply and/or telecommunications capabilities.
     Additional information concerning these and other factors which could cause differences between forward-looking statements and future actual results is discussed under the heading “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Overview
     We are a healthcare information technology company that designs, develops, markets, installs and supports computerized information technology systems to meet the unique demands of small and midsize hospitals. Our target market includes acute care community hospitals with 300 or fewer beds and small specialty hospitals. We are a single-source vendor providing comprehensive software and hardware products, complemented by data conversion, complete installation and extensive support. Our fully integrated, enterprise-wide system automates the management of clinical and financial data across the primary functional areas of a hospital. In addition, we provide services that enable our customers to outsource certain data-related business processes which we can perform more efficiently. We believe our products and services enhance hospital performance in the critical areas of clinical care, revenue cycle management, cost control and regulatory compliance. From our initial hospital installation in 1981, we have grown to serve more than 600 hospital customers across 46 states and the District of Columbia. In the three months ended September 30, 2006, we generated revenues of $27.3 million from the sale of our products and services.
Results of Operations
Three Months Ended September 30, 2006 Compared with Three Months Ended September 30, 2005
     Revenues. Total revenues increased by 1.0%, or $0.3 million, to $27.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2006, from $27.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2005.
     System sales revenues decreased by 12.5%, or $1.6 million, to $10.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2006, from $12.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2005. This decrease was primarily due to a decrease in sales of systems to new customers.
     Support and maintenance revenues increased by 7.1%, or $0.7 million, to $11.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2006, from $11.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2005. This increase was attributable to an increase in recurring revenues as a result of a larger customer base.
     Outsourcing revenues increased by 29.7%, or $1.1 million, to $4.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2006, from $3.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2005. We experienced an increase in outsourcing revenues as a result of continued growth in existing customer demand for electronic billing and business office outsourcing services. We were providing business office outsourcing services to forty-five customers at September 30, 2006 and twenty customers at September 30, 2005.

     Costs of Sales. Total costs of sales increased by 2.5%, or $0.4 million, to $16.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2006, from $15.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2005. As a percentage of total revenues, costs of sales increased to 58.4% for the three months ended September 30, 2006 from 57.6% for the three months ended September 30, 2005.
     Cost of system sales decreased by 1.3%, or $0.1 million, to $8.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2006, from $8.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2005. The gross margin on system sales decreased to 23.0% for the three months ended September 30, 2006, from 31.8% for the three months ended September 30, 2005. The decrease in sales of new systems resulted in the decreased gross margin percentage since many of the expenses are fixed in nature.
     Cost of support and maintenance increased by 2.0%, or $0.1 million, to $5.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2006, from $4.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2005. This increase was caused primarily by an increase in payroll related expenses as a result of salary increases and an increase in the number of employees. The gross margin on support and maintenance revenues increased to 57.8% for the three months ended September 30, 2006, compared to 55.7% for the three months ended September 30, 2005. The increase in gross margin was primarily due to the addition of new customers coupled with a proportionately smaller increase in support personnel.
     Our costs associated with outsourcing services increased by 18.4%, or $0.4 million, to $2.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2006, from $2.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2005. This increase was caused primarily by an increase of $0.3 million in payroll related expenses as a result of an increase in the number of employees needed to support our growing business office outsourcing operations and electronic billing operations. Postage expense related to our statement outsourcing business also increased $0.1 million due to an increase in volume.
     Sales and Marketing Expenses. Sales and marketing expenses increased by 13.3%, or $0.3 million, to $2.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2006, from $1.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2005. The increase was attributable to an increase in salary expense of $0.3 million as a result of an increase in the number of personnel in sales and marketing.
     General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses increased by 10.0%, or $0.4 million, to $4.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2006, from $3.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2005. Stock compensation expense which resulted from the adoption of SFAS 123R was $0.2 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2006 as compared to $0.0 in the prior year period. Group health insurance expense increased $0.2 million due to an increase in the number of covered employees.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
     At September 30, 2006, we had cash and cash equivalents of $9.1 million, compared with $10.6 million at September 30, 2005. Net cash provided by operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 was $10.3 million, compared to $11.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2005. The decrease was primarily due to an increase in accounts receivable, financing receivables and provision for bad debt. The temporary suspension of reimbursement to hospitals by Medicare in September 2006 resulted in a decrease in collections from our customers.
     Net cash used in investing activities totaled $1.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006, compared to $10.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2005. We used cash primarily for the purchase of property and equipment. In 2005, we used cash primarily for the purchase of $8.3 million in investments which are classified as available for sale.
     Net cash used in financing activities totaled $11.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006, compared to $5.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2005. We paid dividends of $11.6 million to our shareholders in the nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared to $6.9 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2005.
     We currently do not have a bank line of credit or other credit facility in place. Our future capital requirements will depend upon a number of factors, including the rate of growth of our sales, cash collections from our customers and our future investments in fixed assets. We believe that our available cash and cash equivalents and anticipated cash generated from operations will be sufficient to meet our operating requirements for the next 12 months.
