NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

September 30, 2006

1. Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of American Access Technologies, Inc. and Subsidiary (“the Company”, “American Access”, “our”, “we”, “us”) at September 30, 2006 have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-QSB and reflect all adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of financial position as of September 30, 2006 and results of operations for the nine and three months ended September 30, 2006 and September 30, 2005, respectively. All adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for a full year. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted. The statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2005 included in the Company’s Form 10-KSB.

Certain amounts in prior year financial statements have been reclassified for comparative purposes to conform with the presentation in the current year financial statements.

2. Net Income (Loss) per Common Share

The Company follows Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 128, “Earnings per Share”, which requires the presentation of both basic and diluted income (loss) per share. In accordance with SFAS Statement No. 128, basic earnings per common share are based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share amounts are based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, plus the incremental shares that would have been outstanding upon the assumed exercise of all potentially dilutive stock options subject to anti-dilution limitations.

Basic net income (loss) per common share has been computed based upon the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and September 30, 2005 and for the three months ended September 30, 2006 and September 30, 2005. Additionally, diluted income (loss) per share has not been presented for these same periods as it would not differ from basic net income.

3. Issuance of Common Stock

During the first quarter of 2006, the Board of Directors approved the terms of agreements with two officers under which all of their unused vacation time accrued for service prior to January 1, 2006 would be paid by issuance of shares of registrant’s common stock valued at $15,000 each

pursuant to the registrant’s 2004 Employee Stock Incentive Plan. Due to this agreement, during the first quarter of 2006, a total of 14,432 shares, valued at $30,000, were issued to these two officers and an additional 3,608 shares, valued at $7,500, were also issued to an employee as compensation for their unused vacation time accrued for service prior to January 1, 2006.

During the second quarter of 2006, an officer of the Company exercised stock options with a strike price of $1.00 per share to purchase with cash 130,000 shares of common stock. Additionally, two officers of the Company exercised a total of 251,666 stock options with a strike price of $1.00 per share as cashless exercises and received a total of 12,582 shares of common stock.

There were no stock transactions during the third quarter.

4. Stock-Based Compensation

Stock Options

There have been no grants of stock options during 2006. However, due to two cashless option exercises, a total of $12,583 in stock-based compensation expense was incurred.

5. Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In September 2006, FASB Statement No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements,” defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This Statement applies under other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements, the Board having previously concluded in those accounting pronouncements that fair value is the relevant measurement attribute. Accordingly, this Statement does not require any new fair value measurements. However, for some entities, the application of this Statement will change current practice.

In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 123-R, a revision of FASB Statement No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation.” This Statement became effective as of the beginning of the first interim or annual reporting period that begins after December 15, 2005. It supersedes APB Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,” and its related implementation guidance and establishes standards for the accounting for transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods or services. It also addresses transactions in which an entity incurs liabilities in exchange for goods or services that are based on the fair value of the entity’s equity instruments or that may be settled by the issuance of those equity instruments.

FAS 123(R) focuses primarily on accounting for transactions in which an entity obtains employee services in share-based payment transactions and requires all forms of share-based payments, including stock options, to be recognized as compensation expense when granted. The compensation expense is the fair value of the awards at the grant date. Further, it requires compensation cost to be recognized over the requisite service period for all awards granted subsequent to adoption.

FAS 123(R) does not change the accounting guidance for share-based payment transactions with parties other than employees provided in SFAS No. 123 as originally issued and EITF Issue No. 96-18, “Accounting for Equity Instruments That Are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling, Goods or Services.” This Statement does not address the accounting for employee share ownership plans, which are subject to AICPA Statement of Position 93-6, “Employers’ Accounting for Employee Stock Ownership Plans.”

Effective January 1, 2006, the Company adopted FAS 123(R) to account for its stock-based compensation plans for officers, employees and directors and will do so using the modified prospective transition method. This will change the Company’s accounting for stock-based compensation related to incentive compensation awards and non-employee directors’ awards. The Company will expense, rather than disclose only, the fair value of these awards based on the Black-Scholes option-pricing model and will utilize the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the awards’ respective measurement dates.

As the Company had no unvested remaining compensation expense to recognize as of January 1, 2006 and has not granted any options during 2006, the Company’s results of operations for the nine and three months ended September 30, 2006 do not reflect any expense arising out of the adoption of this Standard. In accordance with the modified prospective transition method, the Company’s consolidated statements of earnings and cash flows for the prior-year quarter have not been restated and do not include the impact of FAS 123(R).

Prior to January 1, 2006, the Company accounted for its stock-based compensation plans under the intrinsic value method prescribed by APB Opinion 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related Interpretations.” As the Company granted stock options to employees, officers and directors with an exercise price equal to or above the market value of the stock on the date of grant, no stock-based compensation cost was recognized in net earnings as reported in the consolidated statements of earnings prior to adopting FAS 123(R).

The following table illustrates the effect on net income (loss) and net income (loss) per share if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation (“FAS 123)” for the nine and three months ended September 30, 2005:


	Nine Months Ended September 30,			Three Months Ended September 30,
	2005			2005
Net Income (Loss):
As reported	$	(61,377	)	$	9,006
Total stock-based compensation expense determined under fair value based methods for all awards		(520,783	)		(496,779	)

Pro forma	$	(582,160	)	$	(487,773	)

Income (Loss) per Share:
Basic:
As reported	$	(0.01	)	$	0.00

Pro forma	$	(0.08	)	$	(0.07	)

The Company used the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to determine the fair value of grants made in the nine and three months ended September 30, 2005. The following assumptions were applied in determining the pro forma compensation cost:


	Nine Months Ended September 30, 2005	Three Months Ended September 30, 2005
Risk Free Interest Rate	4.99%	4.99%
Expected Dividend Yield	—	—
Expected Option Life	1.25 years	1.25 years
Expected Stock Price Volatility	52 – 70%	54%

6. Segment Information

The Company follows SFAS No. 131, “Disclosures About Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information,” which dictates the way the Company reports information about its operating segments.

The Company has two reportable segments, zone cabling products and formed metal products. The Company markets zone cabling products which are manufactured by Omega Metals, a former wholly-owned subsidiary now operating as a division. Omega Metals manufactures formed metal products of varying designs for customers, including the Company.

7. Subsequent Event

On December 15, 2004, the Company filed seven suits in Small Claims Court in Clay County, Florida, related to a customer’s default on a $38,000 account receivable for the ultra-violet light product. The entire past due balance is reflected in the bad debt allowance. The customer, Enhance-It, Inc., subsequently responded by filing a counter-suit claiming breach of contract, negligence, fraud and misrepresentation in the United States District for the District of South Carolina, Beaufort Division. While the Company believes the counter-suit has little merit and is vigorously defending itself, it recently proposed a settlement of this matter. Based on this settlement offer the Company has accrued a loss of $40,000 for settlement of this matter at September 30, 2006 and does not believe that it will be subject to a loss in excess of $100,000 in this matter. The $40,000 amount is included in accrued expenses.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included elsewhere in this Form 10-QSB and our Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2005. Historical results and percentage relationships set forth in the statement of operations, including trends that might appear, are not necessarily indicative of future operations.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Except for historical and factual information, this document contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements include statements that address activities, events or developments that we expect, believe or anticipate will or may occur in the future, such as predictions of future financial performance. All forward-looking statements are based on assumptions made by us based on our experience and perception of historical trends, current conditions, expected future developments and other factors we believe are appropriate under the circumstances. These statements are subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond our control, including our ability to maintain key products’ sales or effectively react to other risks described from time to time in our SEC filings. No forward-looking statement can be guaranteed, and actual results may differ materially from those projected. We undertake no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

BUSINESS

American Access Technologies, Inc. is comprised of two divisions: zone cabling and formed metal. The zone cabling division develops and manufactures patented “zone cabling” and wireless telecommunication enclosures. These enclosures mount in ceilings, walls, raised floors, and certain modular furniture to facilitate the routing of telecommunications network cabling, fiber optics and wireless solutions to the workspace environment. We believe that zone cabling is a superior approach for growing and open office configurations or wherever frequent moves, additions and changes (“MACs”) of telecommunications services are a factor.

Our enclosures provide state-of-the-art flexible cabling and wireless solutions in the high-speed communication networks found throughout office buildings, hospitals, schools, industrial complexes and government buildings. Our patented product allows users to route cables into specific areas, where they are needed in a streamlined, flexible, and cost effective fashion. With recent standards issued by the Telecommunications Industry Association (“TIA”), our products have gained acceptance by architects, consultants and engineers. Zone cabling greatly facilitates subsequent MACs and upgrades for the network installations of today and tomorrow.

In light of the ever-changing telecommunications demands, we continue to expand our proprietary line of products to address the growing need for a multitude of box sizes, cable configurations and flexible installation and access. We continue to seek additional private labeling agreements with manufacturers for which we can customize our products to their specifications, thus allowing them to serve as an Original Equipment Manufacturer (“OEM”). We can also custom-label our current products to suit the design and development needs of our

OEMs. Many of our products are included in the catalog for government contracts and large private sector jobs with one of the nation’s top distributors of telecommunications systems products. We can also provide manufacturing and assembly services for our OEM partners for their related products.

Omega Metals, Inc. (“Omega Metals”, “Omega”), formerly a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company since 1998, was merged into the Company effective February 3, 2005 and continues to operate as a separate division. The Omega Metals division is a precision sheet metal fabrication and assembly operation. Omega manufactures not only our zone cabling and wireless products, but also provides services such as precision “CNC” stamping, bending, assembling, painting, powder coating and silk screening to a diverse client base including, but not limited to, engineering, technology and electronics companies, primarily in the Southeast. Due to the increased production capabilities gained by the utilization of our state-of-the-art laser cutting FMS and our robotic welder, Omega has been successful in attracting new business, most recently from customers in the telecommunications and medical equipment industries.

The Company operates from a 67,500 sq. ft. manufacturing facility situated on 8 1/2 acres of land which is owned by the Company.

On May 8, 2003 we entered into an agreement with Chatsworth Products, Inc. (“CPI”), Westlake Village, CA establishing a five-year strategic alliance for the manufacture and sales of zone cabling and wireless products developed by American Access. These products, all of which are currently manufactured by American Access, are co-branded with the names of both American Access and CPI and are exclusively sold and distributed by CPI. Under the agreement, American Access will continue to manufacture the products, however, CPI will have manufacturing rights under certain circumstances. In connection with the alliance, CPI purchased 215,517 shares of American Access common stock in a private placement at $1.16 per share.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

We have adopted various accounting policies that govern the application of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America in the preparation of our financial statements. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Although these estimates are based on management’s knowledge of current events and actions it may undertake in the future, they may ultimately differ from actual results.

Our significant accounting policies are more fully described in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements at December 31, 2005, included in the annual report on Form 10-KSB. Certain accounting policies involve significant judgments and assumptions by us that have a material impact on the carrying value of certain assets and liabilities. Management believes the following critical accounting policies reflect its most significant estimates and assumptions used in the presentation of our financial statements. We do not have off-balance sheet arrangements, financings, or other relationships with unconsolidated entities or other persons, also known as “special purpose entities” (“SPE”s), nor do we have any “variable interest entities” (“VIE”s), as defined by FIN 46(R).

Inventory Valuation—Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market, with cost determined using an average cost method. Inventory costs for finished goods and work-in-process include direct material, direct labor, production overhead, and outside services. Production overhead, including indirect labor, is allocated to finished goods and work-in-progress based on material consumption which is an estimate that could be subject to change in the near term.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts—The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of our customers to make required payments. The estimate is based on management’s assessment of the collectibility of specific customer accounts and includes consideration for credit worthiness and financial condition of those specific customers. We also will review historical experience with the customer, the general economic environment and the aging of our receivables. We record an allowance to reduce receivables to the amount that we reasonably believe to be collectible. Those estimates subject to potential change in the near term include allowances for doubtful accounts. Based on our historical collection experience, we currently feel our allowance for doubtful accounts is adequate.

Revenue Recognition—The Company recognizes revenue from product sales at the time the product is shipped and title passes to the customer. The Company believes that recognizing revenue at time of shipment is appropriate because the Company’s sales policies meet the four criteria of SAB 104, which are: (i) persuasive evidence that an arrangement exists, (ii) delivery has occurred, (iii) the seller’s price to the buyer is fixed and determinable, and (iv) collectibility is reasonably assured.

Contingencies—In accordance with SFAS No. 5, “Accounting for Contingencies,” we record an estimated loss from a loss contingency when information indicates that it is probable that an asset has been impaired or a liability has been incurred and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. Contingencies are often resolved over long time periods, are based on unique facts and circumstances, and are inherently uncertain. We regularly evaluate current information available to us to determine whether such accruals should be adjusted or other disclosures related to contingencies are required.

THE NINE MONTHS AND THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2006 COMPARED WITH THE NINE MONTHS AND THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2005

OVERALL RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

For the nine months ended September 30, 2006, we generated net income of $130,450, or $0.02 per share, as compared with the net loss of $61,377, or $0.01 per share over comparative nine months in the prior year.

For the three months ended September 30, 2006, we generated a net loss of $7,162, or $0.0 per share, as compared with the net income of $9,006, or $0.0 per share over comparative three months in the prior year.

These results include a charge of $40,000 in the September 30th quarter related to a litigation matter. Absent this charge, third quarter and nine month net income would have been $32,838 and $170,450, respectively, compared to net income of $9,006 and net loss of $61,377 for the same periods in 2005.

The Company’s goal is to achieve sustained profitability, however, the results for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full fiscal year ending December 31, 2006. There are a number of factors that affect the Company’s business and the results of its operations. Quarter-to-quarter sales and margins rates are subject to fluctuations due to many factors. These factors include general economic and business conditions; the level of acceptance of the Company’s products; and its ability continue the aggressive marketing and sale of its products through a widening base of customers and strategic alliances with OEM’s in order to achieve its goals.

REVENUES

Total sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 of $6,363,325 represent an increase of 1.1% ($69,925) as compared with total sales of $6,293,400 for the nine months ended September 30, 2005.

Total sales for the three months ended September 30, 2006 of $2,063,537 represent a decrease of 12.5% ($294,166) as compared with total sales of $2,357,703 for the three months ended September 30, 2005.

The Omega Metals division formed metal sales of $4,056,863 and $3,939,560 for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively, represent an increase in revenue of 1.9% ($117,303). Formed metal sales of $1,376,730 and $1,645,439 for the three months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively, represent a decrease in revenue of 11.4% ($268,709).

The zone cabling division sales of $2,306,462 and $2,353,840 for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively, represent a decrease in revenue of 0.8% ($47,378). Zone cabling sales of $686,807 and $712,264 for the three months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively, represent a decrease in revenue of 1.1% ($25,457).

We began increasing sales prices on the Omega Metals products during the latter part of 2005. We continue to refine our customer base and product selection, focusing on those products and customers best able to position us to improve our profit margin. The zone cabling division, which operates under contracts ranging from one year to three years with OEMs, has not only been successful in extending the initial contracts with certain OEMs but has also succeeded in negotiating and implementing increased sales prices.

For the nine and three months ended September 30, 2006, sales to two customers, CPI and TYCO Electronics (“TYCO”), each accounted for more than 10% of total sales.

The CPI sales can be attributed to the Company’s marketing and manufacturing agreement with CPI. For the nine and three months ended September 30, 2006, sales of $1,541,905 and $372,020, respectively, to CPI represent 24.3% and 18.0%, respectively, of total sales. Additionally, for the referenced periods, these sales represent 66.9% and 54.2%, respectively, of the zone cabling division sales.

For the nine and three months ended September 30, 2006, sales of $815,314 and $324,749, respectively, to TYCO represent 12.9% and 15.7%, respectively, of total sales. The increase in sales to TYCO can be attributed not only to an increase in orders for fabricated metal parts but also for contracted assembly services.

We have always acknowledged that our zone cabling and wireless products have a longer sales cycle that depends on our products being incorporated into larger projects and, therefore, quarterly sales of these products are not consistent. We anticipate that sales will continue to reflect positive results from the relationships that our sales efforts have nurtured with the OEMs and the relationships that the CPI sales force has developed for these products.

COSTS AND EXPENSES

Cost of Sales

Direct and indirect costs incurred by the Company to have its products manufactured and assembled of $4,793,920 for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 represent 75.3% as a percentage of revenues. This is a decrease of 5.0% as a percentage of revenues as compared with expenses of $5,056,086, which represent 80.3% as a percentage of revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2005.

Direct and indirect costs incurred by the Company to have its products manufactured and assembled of $1,580,873 for the three months ended September 30, 2006 represent 76.6% as a percentage of revenues. This is a decrease of 1.7% as a percentage of revenue as compared with expenses of $1,845,718, which represent 78.3% as a percentage of revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2005.

Material expense of $1,538,716 and $1,623,718 for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively, represents a decrease of 1.6 % as a percentage of revenues. For the three months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, expense of $526,767 and $576,493, respectively, represents a decrease of 1.6% as a percentage of revenues.

Labor and related expense of $1,846,586 and $2,202,073 for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively, represents a decrease of 6.0% as a percentage of revenues. For the three months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, expense of $532,733 and $784,610, respectively, represents a decrease of 6.5% as a percentage of revenues.

During the latter months of 2005 and continuing through 2006, a variety of changes, which have had positive effects to varying extents on the profit margins of the two divisions, were initiated throughout the production cycle, the results of which are becoming evident with an improving gross profit margin:

•

we successfully negotiated two price increases with CPI; one which became effective January 1, 2006 and the second which became effective July 1, 2006;

•

new pricing procedures were implemented for the formed metal products which enabled an improved and more timely absorption of changes in metal prices, energy and transportation costs;

•

standard costs and margins were analyzed by both customer and product which resulted in an improved and more timely ability to identify and reduce production of lower-margin products, thus allowing us to focus on the higher-margin products;

•

the Company continues to move toward its goal of lean manufacturing by implementing process changes which have reduced variable costs, improved the production flow, and reduced the length of time to produce a product, thereby enabling more orders to be completed and shipped;

•

we are becoming more efficient with both labor and material costs as we become more skilled with the engineering and utilization of our state-of-the-art laser-cutter and the robotic welder; and,

•

improvements in quality control processes have reduced the quantity and cost of rework.

Margins will be affected quarter to quarter, perhaps significantly, by price adjustments, cost of sales, inventory obsolescence, the introduction of new products and the sales mix between the two divisions.

All other manufacturing expenses total $1,408,618 and $1,229,694 for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively, represent an increase of 2.7 % as a percentage of revenues. For the three months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, expenses of $521,373 and $484,615 respectively, represent an increase of 4.6% as a percentage of revenues.

Depreciation expense has increased as a result of an increased investment in capitalized equipment. Building maintenance and taxes have increased slightly.

The increase in the inventory allowance for the nine and three months ended September 30, 2006 of $62,000 and $37,000, respectively, represents increases of 1.0% and 1.8%, respectively, as a percentage of revenues for 2006. Inventory reserves are increasing as the limited life of certain products becomes evident.

The following table summarizes the primary components of Cost of Sales for the nine and three months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005:

Selling, General and Administrative Expense

Selling, general and administrative expense of $581,894 and $583,509 for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively, represents a decrease of 0.2% as a percentage of revenues. For the three months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, expense of $229,653 and $241,906, respectively, represents an increase of 0.8% as a percentage of revenues.

•

Sales commission expense has decreased as certain customer accounts are no longer included in the sales base used to calculate commissions for our external salesmen;

•

Bad debt expense represents net adjustments to the allowance for doubtful accounts. No bad debt expense was recognized for the nine and three months ended September 30, 2005.

•

Professional services expense represents costs for accounting, legal and other consulting services. Also included is a charge recorded in September of $40,000 due to discussions subsequent to quarter-end related to a litigation matter. We anticipate consulting costs may increase as the Company continues to evaluate, document and test internal controls over financial reporting pursuant to Sarbanes-Oxley regulations.

•

General office expense includes the cost of processing fees to an external payroll service provider under contract effective January 1, 2006. Resources have been allocated to improve the functionality and security systems of our computer network.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company’s operating activities provided cash of $403,546 and utilized cash of $91,150 during the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and September 30, 2005, respectively. Net cash consumed by operating activities consisted of increases in inventories and prepaid expenses and other current assets. The cash increase from operations is in part attributable to a decrease in accounts receivable and increases in depreciation, amortization, the allowance for obsolete inventory, accounts payable and accrued expenses and expense related to cashless stock transactions.

Net cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 was $66,603 as compared with a utilization of $465,584 for the nine months ended September 30, 2005.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2006, the net cash provided by financing activities was $130,000 as compared with $92,660 for the nine months ended September 30, 2005. The Company received $130,000 from the exercise of stock options for the nine months ended September 30, 2006.

We believe that we can acquire additional working capital, if required, through the sale of additional securities, including the potential exercise of outstanding options, a private placement, or borrowings, including bank borrowing and private equity lines. Since our 67,500 sq. ft. plant is unencumbered, we also have the potential to mortgage it to raise capital. However, there are no assurances that we would be able to obtain such financing or, if obtained, that it would be on terms advantageous to the Company.

RISK FACTORS THAT COULD AFFECT FUTURE RESULTS

Our business is subject to a number of risks, some of which are discussed below. Other risks are presented elsewhere in this document and in the information incorporated by reference into this document. Before deciding to invest in our Company or to maintain or increase your investment, you should carefully consider the risks described below, in addition to the other information contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-KSB, our Quarterly Reports on 10-QSB; and in our other filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), including any subsequent reports filed on Forms 10-KSB, 10-QSB and 8-K. The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only ones that we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also affect our business and results of operations. If any of these risks actually occur, our business, financial condition or results of operations could be seriously harmed. In that event, the market price for our common stock could decline and you may lose all or part of your investment.

Because of the following factors, as well as other variables affecting our operating results, past financial performance may not be a reliable indicator of future performance, and historical trends should not be used to anticipate results or trends in future periods.

We have a history of operating losses.

We have experienced fluctuations in our revenues and this may continue in the future.

Telecommunications networking products are subject to rapid technological change and to compete, we must offer products that achieve market acceptance.

Economic weakness has affected the Company adversely in the past and the return of such weakness could adversely affect our revenue, gross margin and expenses in the future.

We depend significantly on one distributor for the sales of our zone cabling and wireless products.

Our failure to adequately protect our proprietary rights could adversely affect our ability to compete effectively.

Decreased effectiveness of equity compensation could adversely affect our ability to attract and retain employees, and changes in accounting for equity compensation could adversely affect earnings.

The exercise of our outstanding stock options could adversely affect our outstanding common stock. Our stock option plans are an important component of our compensation program for our employees and directors. As of November 13, 2006, we have issued and outstanding options to purchase 3,878,700 shares of common stock with exercise prices ranging from $0.78 to $2.30 per share. The existence of such rights to acquire common stock at fixed prices may prove a hindrance to our efforts to raise future funding by the sale of equity. The exercise of such options may dilute the percentage ownership interest of our existing stockholders and may dilute the value of their ownership. The possible future sale of shares issuable on the exercise of outstanding options could adversely affect the prevailing market price for our common stock. Further, the holders of the outstanding rights may exercise them at a time when we would otherwise be able to obtain additional equity capital on terms more favorable to us.

ITEM 3. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Under the direction of our President and Chief Financial Officer, we evaluated our disclosure controls and procedures and concluded that (i) our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of September 30, 2006; and (ii) no change in internal control over financial reporting occurred during the quarter ended September 30, 2006 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, such internal control over financial reporting.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting.

There have been no other changes in our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended September 30, 2006.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

On December 15, 2004, the Company filed seven suits in Small Claims Court in Clay County, Florida, related to a customer’s default on a $38,000 account receivable for the ultra-violet light product. The entire past due balance is reflected in the bad debt allowance. The customer, Enhance-It, Inc., subsequently responded by filing a counter-suit claiming breach of contract, negligence, fraud and misrepresentation in the United States District for the District of South Carolina, Beaufort Division. In November 2006 the Company filed a motion for summary judgment on a substantial portion of the customers counter-suit and the Company’s counsel and counsel for the customer initiated settlement discussions.
