EXPLANATORY NOTE

On December 8, 2009, Anchor Funding Services, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), filed a Current Report on Form 8-K (the “8-K”) to report that the Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Asset Purchase Agreement”) on December 4, 2009 with Brookridge Funding, LLC (“Seller”) , a Delaware Limited Liability Company, providing for the acquisition of certain assets and accounts of Seller’s purchase order finance business (the “Acquired Business”).  The closing of the acquisition took place on December 7, 2009.  In connection with the transaction, the Company and Seller’s principals invested $1.5 million in Brookridge Funding Services, LLC, the Company’s newly formed 80% owned subsidiary which will operate the Acquired Business (“Brookridge”).  The purchase price for the Acquired Business was $2.4 million (the Acquired Business’s outstanding client account balances at closing), plus an earn-out payment based on the Acquired Business’s operating income of up to $800,000.

In connection with closing, Brookridge entered into a credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with MGM Funding, LLC, a limited liability owned and controlled by the Company’s Co-Chairmen, Morry F. Rubin and George Rubin, and an investor (“Lender”), pursuant to which Lender will provide a $3.7 million senior credit facility to Brookridge.  Morry F. Rubin is the managing member of MGM. Loans under the Credit Agreement are secured by all of Brookridge’s assets and will bear interest at a 20% annual rate. The Credit Agreement contains standard representations, covenants and events of default for facilities of this type.  Occurrence of an event of default allows the Lender to accelerate the payment of the loans and/or terminate the commitments to lend, in addition to other legal remedies, including foreclosing on collateral.
 
This amendment is being filed to amend and supplement Item 9.01 of the 8-K to include the financial statements and pro forma financial information required by parts (a) and (b) of Item 9.01 of Form 8-K.

We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Brookridge Funding LLC (a Delaware Limited Liability Company), as of December 31, 2008 and the related statements of income, changes in members’ capital and cash flows for the years then ended.  These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audit 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 examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.  We believe our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Brookridge Funding LLC as of December 31, 2008, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 – NATURE OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Nature of Business

Brookridge Funding LLC (the "Company") was organized in the state of Delaware and began operations on December 22, 2004 for the purpose of investing in secured transactions.  The Company provides commercial accounts receivable factoring and purchase order funding services.  The Company’s clients are located throughout the United States.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the 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, the 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 those estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.  In the normal course of business, the Company may maintain cash held at financial institutions in excess of the insured limit of $100,000.  The Company does not believe it is exposed to any significant credit risk related to cash.

Revenue Recognition

The Company provides factoring of accounts receivable as well as purchase order funding.  The Company receives a fee for providing this service.  Revenue is recognized when the money is advanced to the customer.

The Company also receives a management fee which is recognized when earned.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

Factored accounts receivables and purchase order fundings are carried at original amount less an estimate of allowance for doubtful accounts based on a monthly review of all outstanding amounts.  Management determines the allowance for doubtful accounts by identifying troubled accounts and by using historical experience applied to an aging of accounts.  Factored accounts receivables and purchase order fundings are written off when deemed uncollectible.  Recoveries of receivables and purchase orders previously written off are recorded as income when received.

NOTE 2 – RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Loan receivable – related party is a loan receivable from Fairfield Factors, LLC (“Fairfield”).  Both the Company and Fairfield have a common owner.  The loan is payable by December 31, 2010 with interest at 3% and is unsecured.

The Company has a management agreement with Brookridge Funding Corporation where the Company pays a management fee monthly for services provided by Brookridge Funding Corporation. The Corporation has the same common owners as the Company.

NOTE 4 – FEES RECEIVABLE

Notes to Financial Statements
For the Nine-Month Period Ended September 30, 2009
 
 
Note 1 – Nature of business and summary of significant accounting polities

Nature of Business – Brookridge Funding LLC (the "Company") was organized in the state of Delaware and began operations on December 22, 2004 for the purpose of investing in secured transactions. The Company provides commercial accounts receivable factoring and purchase order funding services. The Company's clients are located throughout the United States.

Use of Estimates – The preparation of the 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, the 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 those estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents·– The Company considers highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company places its cash and cash equivalents on deposit with financial institutions in the United States of America. In October and November 2008, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) temporarily increased coverage to $250,000 for substantially all depository accounts and temporarily provides unlimited coverage for certain qualifying and participating non-interest bearing transaction accounts. The increased coverage is schedule to expire on December 31, 2013, at which time it is anticipated amounts insured by the FDIC will return to $100,000. During the year, the Company from time to time had amounts on deposit in excess of the insured limits.

Revenue Recognition – The Company provides factoring of accounts receivable as well as purchase order funding.  The Company receives a fee for providing this service. Revenue is recognized when the money is advanced to the customer.  The Company also receives a management fee which is recognized when earned.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts – Factored accounts receivables and purchase order fundings are carried at original amount less an estimate of allowance for doubtful accounts based on a monthly review of all outstanding amounts. Management determines the allowance for doubtful accounts by identifying troubled accounts and by using historical experience applied to an aging of accounts. Factored accounts receivables and purchase order fundings are written off when deemed uncollectible. Recoveries of receivables and purchase orders previously written off are recorded as income when received.

Income Taxes – The Company is not a taxpaying entity for federal income tax purposes, and thus no provision for income taxes has been recognized. Income of the Company is taxed to partners in their respective returns.

Members' Capital – The Members' Capital account consists of investments by the members.

ANCHOR FUNDING SERVICES, INC.
 
UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

On December 8, 2009, Anchor Funding Services, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), filed a Current Report on Form 8-K (the “8-K”) to report that the Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Asset Purchase Agreement”) on December 4, 2009 with Brookridge Funding, LLC (“Seller”) , a Delaware Limited Liability Company, providing for the acquisition of certain assets and accounts of Seller’s purchase order finance business (the “Acquired Business”).  The closing of the acquisition took place on December 7, 2009.  In connection with the transaction, the Company and Seller’s principals invested $1.5 million in Brookridge Funding Services, LLC, the Company’s newly formed 80% owned subsidiary which will operate the Acquired Business (“Brookridge”).  The purchase price for the Acquired Business was $2.4 million (the Acquired Business’s outstanding client account balances at closing), plus an earn-out payment based on the Acquired Business’s operating income of up to $800,000.

In connection with closing, Brookridge entered into a credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with MGM Funding, LLC, a limited liability company owned and controlled by the Company’s Co-Chairmen, Morry F. Rubin and George Rubin, and an investor (“Lender”), pursuant to which Lender will provide a $3.7 million senior credit facility to Brookridge.  Morry F. Rubin is the managing member of MGM. Loans under the Credit Agreement are secured by all of Brookridge’s assets and will bear interest at a 20% annual rate. The Credit Agreement contains standard representations, covenants and events of default for facilities of this type.  Occurrence of an event of default allows the Lender to accelerate the payment of the loans and/or terminate the commitments to lend, in addition to other legal remedies, including foreclosing on collateral.
 
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet was prepared by combining the condensed balance sheet of Anchor Funding Services, Inc. and the condensed balance sheet of Brookridge Funding, LLC as of September 30, 2009. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet reflects the gross consideration paid by the Company for the acquisition equal to the Acquired Business’s outstanding client account balances as of September 30, 2009 assuming the transaction had been completed on September 30, 2009.
 
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations was prepared by combining the condensed statement of operations of the Anchor Funding Services, Inc. and the condensed statement of operations of Brookridge Funding, LLC for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and the year ended December 31, 2008 as if the acquisition was effective January 1, 2008.
 
The pro forma condensed combined financial statements should be read in conjunction with the separate financial statements and related notes thereto of Anchor Funding Services, Inc., as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) in its Annual Report on Form 10-K filed March 30, 2009 and in its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed November 16, 2009 and in conjunction with the separate financial statements and related notes thereto of Brookridge Funding, LLC included as Exhibit 99.1 and 99.2 to this Form 8-K/A.
 
These pro forma condensed combined financial statements are not necessarily indicative of the combined results of operations that would have occurred had the acquisition actually taken place at the beginning of the period indicated above or the future results of operations. In the opinion of the Company’s management, all significant adjustments necessary to reflect the effects of the acquisition that can be factually supported within SEC regulations covering the preparation of pro forma financial statements have been made. The pro forma adjustments as presented are based on estimates and certain information that is currently available to the Company’s management. Such pro forma adjustments could change as additional information becomes available, as estimates are refined or as additional events occur.
