Speedemissions, Inc.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

March 31, 2009

(Unaudited)

Note 1: Basis of Presentation

Speedemissions, Inc. (“the Company”), a Florida corporation, operates vehicle emissions testing and safety inspection centers in four separate markets, greater Atlanta, Georgia; Houston, Texas; St. Louis, Missouri and Salt Lake City, Utah. The Company manages its operations based on these four regions and has one reportable segment. Throughout this report, the terms “we,” “us,” “our,” “Speedemissions,” and “Company” refer to Speedemissions, Inc., including its wholly-owned subsidiaries. As of May 4, 2009, we operated 39 vehicle emissions testing and safety inspection centers in these regions and four mobile units in the Atlanta, Georgia area.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial statements and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments consisting of normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of its financial position and results of operations. Interim results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be achieved for the full year. The financial statements and related notes do not include all information and footnotes required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for annual reports. This quarterly report should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008.

Note 2: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Nature of Operations

Speedemissions performs vehicle emissions testing and safety inspections in certain cities in which vehicle emissions testing is mandated by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). We use computerized emissions testing and safety inspections equipment that test vehicles for compliance with vehicle emissions and safety standards. Our revenues are generated from the test or inspection fee charged to the registered owner of the vehicle. We do not provide automotive repair services.

The Company’s 39 emissions testing and safety inspection stations operate under the trade names Speedemissions (Georgia and Missouri), Mr. Sticker (Texas) and Just Inc. (Utah). At its emissions testing and safety inspection stations, the Company uses computerized emissions testing equipment and safety inspection equipment that test vehicles for compliance with emissions and safety standards. In the emissions testing and safety inspection industry, such stations are known as decentralized facilities. The Company utilizes “basic” testing systems that test a motor vehicle’s emissions while in neutral and “enhanced” testing systems that test a vehicle’s emissions under simulated driving conditions.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue is recognized as the testing services are performed. The cost of emission certificates is shown separately in the accompanying consolidated statements of income.

Under current Georgia, Missouri, Texas, and Utah laws, if a vehicle fails an emissions test or safety inspection, it may be retested at no additional charge during a specified period after the initial test, as long as the subsequent test is performed at the same facility. The costs of such retests and the number of retests are not material. Accordingly, no allowance for retest is recorded by the Company.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS 141R, Business Combinations (SFAS 141R), which changes the way we account for business acquisitions. SFAS 141R requires the acquiring entity in a business combination to recognize all (and only) the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the transaction and establishes the acquisition-date fair value as the measurement objective for all assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a

Table of Contents

business combination. Certain provisions of SFAS 141R will, among other things, impact the determination of acquisition-date fair value of consideration paid in a business combination (including contingent consideration); exclude transaction costs from acquisition accounting; and change accounting practices for acquired contingencies, acquisition-related restructuring costs, in-process research and development, indemnification assets, and tax benefits. SFAS 141R became effective for us on January 1, 2009 and the adoption did not have an impact on our financial statements.

In March 2008, FASB issued SFAS No. 161 “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities-an amendment of FASB statement No. 133” (“SFAS 161”). SFAS 161 requires enhanced disclosures about an entity’s derivative and hedging activities and thereby improves the transparency of financial reporting. SFAS 161 became effective for us on January 1, 2009 and the adoption did not have an impact on our financial statements.

In June 2008, FASB issued FSP Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) Issue No. 03-6-1, “Determining Whether Instruments Granted in Share-Based Payment Transactions Are Participating Securities” (“FSP EITF 03-6-1”). This FSP addresses whether instruments granted in share-based payment transactions are participating securities prior to vesting and, therefore, need to be included in the earnings allocation in computing earnings per share under the two-class method. This FSP affects entities that accrue dividends on share-based payment awards during the awards’ service period when the dividends do not need to be returned if the employees forfeit the award. FSP EITF 03-6-1 became effective for us on January 1, 2009 and the adoption did not have an impact on our financial statements.

In April 2009, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position No. 107-1 (FSP FAS 107-1) and APB 28-1 (APB 28-1), which amends FASB Statement No. 107, Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments and APB Opinion No. 28, Interim Financial Reporting, to require disclosures about the fair value of financial instruments for interim reporting periods. FSP FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1 will be effective for interim reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009. We are currently evaluating the future impacts and disclosures of this staff position.

Note 3: Discontinued Operations

Discontinued operations include results attributable to 12 emissions testing and safety inspection centers that were located within Sears Auto Centers in the Dallas, Texas area. Eight of these stores were closed in July 2008 and the remaining four were closed on January 5, 2009. Loss from discontinued operations includes the historical loss from these operations.

Note 7: Net Income (loss) Per Common Share

Net income (loss) per share has been computed according to SFAS No. 128, “Earnings per Share,” which requires a dual presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”). Basic EPS represents net income (loss) divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during a reported period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock, including stock options, warrants, and contingently issuable shares such as the Company’s Series A and Series B preferred stock (commonly and hereinafter referred to as “Common Stock Equivalents”), were exercised or converted into common stock.

The following table sets forth the computation for basic and diluted net income (loss) per share for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively:

(1) Because their effects are anti-dilutive, Common Stock Equivalents of 21,153,345 issuable under stock option plans and stock warrants whose grant price is greater than the average market price of Common Shares outstanding at the end of the relevant period have been excluded from the computation of weighted average common shares diluted for the three months ended March 31, 2009.
(2) As a result of the Company’s net loss in the three months ended March 31, 2008, aggregate Common Stock Equivalents of 17,835,512 issuable under stock option plans and stock warrants that were potentially dilutive securities are anti-dilutive and have been excluded from the computation of weighted average common shares diluted for the three months ended March 31, 2008. These Common Stock Equivalents could be dilutive in future periods.
(3) As a result of the Company’s net loss in the three months ended March 31, 2008, aggregate Common Stock Equivalents of 4,277,498 issuable under Series A convertible, redeemable preferred stock that were potentially dilutive securities are anti-dilutive and have been excluded from the computation of weighted average common shares diluted for the three months ended March 31, 2008. The Company reported net income in the three months ended March 31, 2009 and as a result, the 4,277,498 Common Stock Equivalents were dilutive in the three months ended March 31, 2009. These Common Stock Equivalents could be dilutive in future periods.
(4) Series B convertible preferred stock held by Barron Partners, LP (“Barron”) do not have voting rights and are subject to a maximum ownership percentage by Barron at any time of 4.9% of the Company’s outstanding common stock. As a result, Common Share Equivalents of the Series B convertible preferred stock of 18,760,000 are anti-dilutive and have been excluded from the weighted average common shares diluted calculation for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008.

Note 8: Preferred Stock

Preferred Stock

There were 5,133 shares of Series A convertible redeemable preferred stock issued and outstanding as of March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008. For financial statement purposes, the Series A convertible redeemable preferred stock has been presented outside of stockholders’ equity on the Company’s balance sheets as a result of certain conditions that are outside the control of the Company that could trigger redemption of the securities.

There were 2,481,482 shares Series B convertible preferred stock issued and outstanding as of March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008.

Note 9: Share-Based Compensation

The Company estimates the fair value of stock options using the Black-Scholes valuation model, and determines the fair value of restricted stock units based on the number of shares granted and the quoted price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. Such value is recognized as expense over the requisite service period, net of estimated forfeitures, using the straight-line attribution method. The estimate of awards that will ultimately vest requires significant judgment, and to the extent actual results or updated estimates differ from the Company’s current estimates, such amounts will be recorded as a cumulative adjustment in the period estimates are revised. The Company considers many factors when estimating expected forfeitures, including types of awards, employee class and historical employee attrition rates. Actual results, and future changes in estimates, may differ substantially from the Company’s current estimates.

Stock-based compensation expense was $11,837 and $27,106 during the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. In the Company’s Statement of Cash Flows, the $11,837 and $27,106 in share-based compensation expense was shown as a non-cash expense in the reconciliation of net cash provided by operating activities in the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

Stock Incentive Plans

The Company has granted options to employees and directors to purchase the Company’s common stock under various stock incentive plans. Under the plans, employees and non-employee directors are eligible to receive awards of various forms of equity-based incentive compensation, including stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units and performance awards, among others. The plans are administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors, which determines the terms of the awards granted. Stock options are generally granted with an exercise price equal to the market value of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant, have a term of ten years or less, and generally vest over three years from the date of grant.

The following table sets forth the options granted under the Company’s Stock Option Plans during the three-month period ended March 31, 2009:

   3,508,059     $ 0.49   
           

The aggregate intrinsic value of options outstanding and exercisable at March 31, 2009 was $0. Intrinsic value is the amount by which the fair value of the underlying stock exceeds the exercise price of the options.

The fair value for stock options was estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, which requires management to make certain assumptions. Expected volatility was based on the comparable company data. The Company based the risk-free interest rate on U.S. Treasury note rates. The expected term is based on the vesting period and an expected exercise term. The Company does not anticipate paying cash dividends in the foreseeable future and therefore use an expected dividend yield of 0%. The Company used the following assumptions in using the Black-Scholes option pricing model for the January 30, 2009 grant of 13,000 stock options:

 

Risk free interest rate

   1.27 %

Expected term of stock awards

   2 years  

Expected volatility in stock price

   45.00 %

Expected dividend yield

   None  

As of March 31, 2009, there was $49,598 of unrecognized stock-based compensation expense related to non-vested stock options. This amount is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of fifteen months. There were 4,333 and 0 shares that vested during the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

There were 5,721,058 and 5,721,058 shares issued and outstanding under the Company’s SKTF, Inc. 2001 Stock Option Plan, the 2005 Omnibus Stock Grant and Option Plan, Speedemissions’ Inc. 2006 Stock Grant and Option Plan and 2008 Stock Grant and Option Plan as of March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively. There were 13,000 options

Forward-looking statements are, by their very nature, uncertain and risky. These risks and uncertainties include international, national and local general economic and market conditions; demographic changes; our ability to sustain, manage, or forecast growth; our ability to successfully make and integrate acquisitions; new product development and introduction; existing government regulations and changes in, or the failure to comply with, government regulations; adverse publicity; competition; the loss of significant store leases, customers or suppliers; fluctuations and difficulty in forecasting operating results; changes in business strategy or development plans; business disruptions; the ability to attract and retain qualified personnel; the ability to protect technology; and other risks that might be detailed from time to time in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Although the forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report reflect the good faith judgment of our management, such statements can only be based on facts and factors currently known by them.

Our revenue, cost of emission certificates, store operating expenses, general and administrative expenses and operating income (loss) for the three months ended March 31, 2009 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2008 were as follows:

 

     Three Months Ended

Revenue. Revenue increased $42,188 or 1.7% to $2,471,942 in the three–month period ended March 31, 2009 compared to $2,429,754 in the three–month period ended March 31, 2008. The increase in revenue over the comparable period was primarily due to an increase of $61,414 from new stores that were not open for the entire comparable period in the prior year and an increase in same store sales of $51,435 or 2.2%, offset by a decrease of $70,660 from a store closed in September 2008. The increase in same store sales is mainly attributable to revenue growth from our newer stores that have been open for less than two years in Houston and St. Louis.

Cost of emission certificates. Cost of emission certificates increased $23,788 or 4.5% in the three-month period ended March 31, 2009 and was $548,577 or 22.2% of revenues, compared to $524,789 or 21.6% of revenues in the three-month period ended March 31, 2008. The increase in the cost of emission certificates was primarily due to a $25,961 increase in same store certificate costs and additional certificates issued in the amount of $12,276 at our new stores, offset by a decrease of $14,449 in the cost of emission certificates from a store closed in September 2008.

Store operating expenses. Store operating expenses increased $85,761 or 5.8% in the three-month period ended March 31, 2009 and was $1,572,829 or 63.6% of revenues, compared to $1,487,068 or 61.2% of revenues in the three-month period ended March 31, 2008. The increase was mainly attributable to an increase of $73,147 in same store operating expenses and from $36,848 in new store operating expenses. The increase was offset by a decrease of $27,627 from a store closed in September 2008.

General and administrative expenses. Our general and administrative expenses decreased $184,080 or 37.9% to $301,366 in the three-month period ended March 31, 2009 from $485,446 in the three-month period ended March 31, 2008. The decrease in general and administrative expenses was primarily due to decreases in legal and accounting fees and lower personnel costs.

Operating income (loss) Our operating income increased $116,719 in the three-month period ended March 31, 2009 and was $49,170 compared to a loss of $67,549 in the three-month period ended March 31, 2008.

Interest income, interest expense, ,income( loss) from continuing operations and basic and diluted earnings per share. Our interest income, interest expense, income (loss) from continuing operations and basic and diluted earnings per share for the three–month period ended March 31, 2009 as compared to the three–month period ended March 31, 2008 is as follows:

Income (loss) from discontinued operations and loss per share from discontinued operations. On December 31, 2008, we decided to close our last 4 vehicle emissions testing and safety inspection stations located within Sears Auto Centers in the Dallas-Ft. Worth, Texas trade area. These stores were closed on January 5, 2009. We had previously announced the closing of 8 similar stores in the Dallas-Ft. Worth, Texas trade area on July 18, 2008. Discontinued operations for the three-month period ended March 31, 2009 and 2008 consists of the operating results for these 12 stores. Revenue in the three-month period ended March 31, 2009 and 2008 from these stores was $0 and $53,665, respectively. Income (loss) from discontinued operations was $0 and ($99,413) in the three-month period ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. Basic and diluted income (loss) per share from discontinued operations was $0.00 and ($0.02) in the three-month period ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Introduction

Our net cash position increased by $30,277 during the three months ended March 31, 2009 primarily from cash provided by operations. We anticipate an increase in our net operating cash flow on a long-term basis, but we may not achieve positive operating cash flows on a consistent basis during 2009. The Company has funded operations and our investment in new stores primarily through the issuance of equity securities, equipment leases and cash provided by operations. In the future, we may raise additional capital by issuing our equity securities to fund expansion and working capital needs. If we are unsuccessful in obtaining additional sources of debt or capital and if the new stores do not reach sufficient levels of tests to achieve profitability in the short-term, we may have to curtail our growth strategy. We continually assess store profitability and may close non-profitable or poor performing stores.

Cash Requirements

For the three months ended March 31, 2009, our net cash provided by operating activities was $50,705 compared to net cash used in operations of $173,901 in the three months ended March 31, 2008. Positive operating cash flows during the three months ended March 31, 2009 were primarily created by net income of $42,152, depreciation and amortization of $79,800, share-based compensation expenses of $11,837 and a decrease in other assets of $3,000, offset by a decrease of $77,109 in accounts payable and accrued liabilities, an increase in other assets of $7,837, a decrease in other liabilities of $1,138.

Negative operating cash flows during the three months ended March 31, 2008 were primarily created by a net loss of $175,632, a decrease of $108,390 in accounts payable and accrued liabilities, a increase in other assets of $750 and a decrease in other liabilities of $2,581, offset by a decrease in other current assets of $868, depreciation and amortization of $85,478, and share-based compensation expenses of $27,106.

Critical Accounting Policies

The discussion and analysis of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations are based upon its consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires the Company to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. In consultation with our Board of Directors, the Company has identified accounting policies related to valuation of our common stock and for assessing whether any value should be assigned to a warrant that we believe are key to an understanding of its financial statements. Additionally, the Company has identified accounting policies related to the valuation of goodwill, created as the result of business acquisitions, as key to an understanding of its financial statements. These are important accounting policies that require management’s most difficult, subjective judgments.
