NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE THREE MONTHS AND SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2010 AND 2009

The Consolidated Balance Sheet as of June 30, 2010, the Consolidated Statements of Operations  for the three months and  six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 and the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 have been prepared by us without audit.  In the opinion of Management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly in all material respects our financial position as of June 30, 2010, results of operations for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 and cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 and are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

This report should be read in conjunction with our Form 10-K for our fiscal year ended December 31, 2009.

1.  BACKGROUND AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS:
 
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Anchor Funding Services, Inc. (formerly BTHC XI, Inc.) its wholly owned subsidiary, Anchor Funding Services, LLC (“Anchor”) and its 80% owned subsidiary Brookridge Funding Services, LLC (“Brookridge”, collectively, “the Company”).  In April of 2007, BTHC XI, Inc. changed its name to Anchor Funding Services, Inc.  All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
 
Anchor Funding Services, Inc. is a Delaware corporation.  Anchor Funding Services, Inc. has no operations; substantially all operations of the Company are the responsibility of Anchor Funding Services, LLC and Brookridge Funding Services, LLC.
 
Anchor Funding Services, LLC is a North Carolina limited liability company. Anchor Funding Services, LLC was formed for the purpose of providing factoring and back office services to businesses located throughout the United States of America.
 
On December 7, 2009, Brookridge Funding Services, LLC, the Company’s 80% owned subsidiary, acquired certain assets and accounts of Brookridge Funding, LLC. Brookridge Funding Services, LLC is a North Carolina limited liability company with operations in Danbury, Connecticut. Brookridge Funding Services, LLC provides factoring and purchase order funding to businesses located throughout the United States of America.
 
2.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

 
Principles of Consolidation - The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Anchor Funding Services, Inc., its wholly owned subsidiary, Anchor Funding Services, LLC and its 80% owned subsidiary Brookridge Funding Services, LLC as of June 30, 2010. The consolidated statement of operations for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2010 includes the results of Brookridge Funding Services, LLC, and Anchor Funding Services, LLC.  The consolidated statement of operations for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2009 does not include the results of Brookridge Funding Services, LLC.

 
Estimates – The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 
Revenue Recognition – The Company charges fees to its customers in one of two ways as follows:

1)  
Fixed Transaction Fee. Fixed transaction fees are a fixed percentage of the purchased invoice and purchase order advance.  This percentage does not change from the date the purchased invoice is funded until the date the purchased invoice is collected.
 
 
 
 
8

 

 
 
2)  
Variable Transaction Fee.  Variable transaction fees are variable based on the length of time the purchased invoice and purchase order advance is outstanding.   As specified in its contract with the client, the Company charges variable increasing percentages of the purchased invoice or purchase order advance as time elapses from the purchase date to the collection date.

 
 
For both Fixed and Variable Transaction fees, the Company recognizes revenue by using one of two methods depending on the type of customer.  For new customers the Company recognizes revenue using the cost recovery method.  For established customers the Company recognizes revenue using the accrual method.

 
Under the cost recovery method, all revenue is recognized upon collection of the entire amount of purchased accounts receivable.

 
The Company considers new customers to be accounts whose initial funding has been within the last three months or less.  Management believes it needs three months of history to reasonably estimate a customer’s collection period and accrued revenues.  If three months of history has a limited number of transactions, the cost recovery method will continue to be used until a reasonable revenue estimate can be made based on additional history.  Once the Company obtains sufficient historical experience, it will begin using the accrual method to recognize revenue.

 
For established customers the Company uses the accrual method of accounting.  The Company applies this method by multiplying the historical yield, for each customer, times the amount advanced on each purchased invoice outstanding for that customer, times the portion of a year that the advance is outstanding.  The customers’ historical yield is based on the Company’s last six months of experience with the customer along with the Company’s experience in the customer’s industry, if applicable.

 
The amounts recorded as revenue under the accrual method described above are estimates.  As purchased invoices and purchase order advances are collected, the Company records the appropriate adjustments to record the actual revenue earned on each purchased invoice and purchase order advance. Adjustments from the estimated revenue to the actual revenue have not been material.

 
Retained Interest in Purchased Accounts Receivable – Retained interest in purchased accounts receivable represents the gross amount of invoices purchased and advances on purchase orders from clients less amounts maintained in a reserve account.  For factoring transactions, the Company purchases a customer’s accounts receivable and advances them a percentage of the invoice total.  The difference between the purchase price and amount advanced is maintained in a reserve account.  The reserve account is used to offset any potential losses the Company may have related to the purchased accounts receivable.  For purchase order transactions, the company advances and pays for 100% of the product’s cost.

 
The Company’s factoring and security agreements with their customers include various recourse provisions requiring the customers to repurchase accounts receivable if certain conditions, as defined in the factoring and security agreement, are met.

 
Senior management reviews the status of uncollected purchased accounts receivable and purchase order advances monthly to determine if any are uncollectible.  The Company has a security interest in the accounts receivable and inventory purchased and, on a case-by-case basis, may have additional collateral.  The Company files security interests in the property securing their advances.  Access to this collateral is dependent upon the laws and regulations in each state where the security interest is filed.  Additionally, the Company has varying types of personal guarantees from their customers relating to the purchased accounts receivable and purchase order advances.

 
Management considered approximately $706,000 of their June 30, 2010 and $57,000 of their December 31, 2009 retained interest in purchased accounts receivable to be uncollectible. In April 2010, the Company’s 80% owned subsidiary, Brookridge, incurred a credit loss of approximately $650,000 due to what appears to be a fraud committed by a Brookridge client (See Note 16 , below).

 
Management believes the fair value of the retained interest in purchased accounts receivable approximates its recorded value because of the relatively short term nature of the purchased receivable and the fact that the majority of these invoices have been subsequently collected. As of June 30, 2010, accounts receivable purchased over 90 days old and still accruing fees totaled approximately $392,878.
 
 
Property and Equipment – Property and equipment, consisting of furniture and fixtures and computers and software, are stated at cost.  Depreciation is provided over the estimated useful lives of the depreciable assets using the straight-line method.  Estimated useful lives range from 2 to 7 years.

      Goodwill and Intangible Assets – Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of purchased businesses over the   fair value of the net assets acquired.
 
 
The Company tests the goodwill balance for impairment annually and between annual tests if circumstances would require it.  The Company’s goodwill testing is a two-step process with the first step being a test for potential impairment by comparing the fair value of the reporting unit with its carrying amount (including goodwill).  If the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds the carrying amount, then no impairment exists.  If the carrying amount of the reporting unit exceeds the fair value, the Company completes the second step to measure the amount of the impairment, if any.  The Company will complete the annual test for impairment during its fourth quarter in future years.
 
 
Identifiable intangible assets are carried at amortized cost.  Intangible assets with definite lives are amortized over their useful lives and amortization is computed using the straight line method over their expected useful lives.  Long-lived assets are tested for recoverability whenever events of changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable.  Impairment losses are recognized if the carrying amount of a long-lived asset is not recoverable and exceeds its fair value.
 

 
Advertising Costs – The Company charges advertising costs to expense as incurred.  Total advertising costs were approximately $75,000 and $86,000 for the quarters ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively, and $142,000 and $173,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and June 30, 2009, respectively.

 
Earnings per Share – Basic net income per share is computed by dividing the net income for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.  Dilutive earnings per share include the potential impact of dilutive securities, such as convertible preferred stock, stock options and stock warrants.  The dilutive effect of stock options and warrants is computed using the treasury stock method, which assumes the repurchase of common shares at the average market price.

Under the treasury stock method, options and warrants will have dilutive effect when the average price of common stock during the period exceeds the exercise price of options or warrants.  For the quarters ending June 30, 2010 and 2009, the average price of common stock was less than the exercise price of the options and warrants.  

 
Also when there is a year-to-date loss from continuing operations, potential common shares should not be included in the computation of diluted earnings per share, since they would have an anti-dilutive effect.  For the quarters and six months ending June 30, 2010 and 2009, there was a year-to-date loss from continuing operations.  

 
Stock Based Compensation - The fair value of transactions in which the Company exchanges its equity instruments for employee services (share-based payment transactions) must be recognized as an expense in the financial statements as services are performed.

Compensation expense is determined by reference to the fair value of an award on the date of grant and is amortized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period. We have elected to use the Black-Scholes-Merton (BSM) pricing model to determine the fair value of all stock option awards.
 
 
See Note 10 for the impact on the operating results for the quarters and six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009.

 
Fair Value of Financial Instruments – The carrying value of cash equivalents, retained interest in purchased accounts receivable, due to financial institution, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximates their fair value.
 
 
 
 
10

 

 
 
Cash and cash equivalents – Cash and cash equivalents consist primarily of highly liquid cash investment funds with original maturities of three months or less when acquired.

 
Income Taxes –The Company is a “C” corporation for income tax purposes.  In a “C” corporation income taxes are provided for the tax effects of transactions reported in the financial statements plus deferred income taxes related to the differences between financial statement and taxable income.

 
The primary differences between financial statement and taxable income for the Company are as follows:

·  
Compensation costs related to the issuance of stock options
·  
Use of the reserve method of accounting for bad debts
·  
Differences in basis of property and equipment between financial and income tax reporting
·  
Net operating loss carryforwards.

The deferred tax asset represents the future tax return consequences of utilizing these items.   Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation reserve, when management is uncertain if the net deferred tax assets will ever be realized.
 
In July 2006, FASB issued guidance for accounting for uncertainty in income tax positions which clarifies the accounting for uncertain tax positions.  This guidance requires that the Company recognize in its consolidated financial statements, the impact of a tax position, if that position is more likely than not of being sustained on audit, based on the technical merits of the position.
 
The Company applied this guidance to all its tax positions, including tax positions taken and those expected to be taken, under the transition provision of the interpretation.
 
For the quarters and six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, the Company recognized no liability for uncertain tax positions.
 
The Company classifies interest accrued on unrecognized tax benefits with interest expense.  Penalties accrued on unrecognized tax benefits are classified with operating expenses.
 
 
Recent Accounting Pronouncements –

In June 2009, the FASB issued Statement No. 168, The FASB Accounting Standards Codification TM and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“ASC 105,” Generally Accepted Accounting Principles). ASC 105 replaces FASB Statement No. 162.  Under the Statement, The FASB Accounting Standards Codification (Codification) has become the source of authoritative U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities.  Rules and interpretive releases of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) under authority of federal securities laws are also sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants.  On the effect ive date of this Statement, the Codification will supersede all then-existing non-SEC accounting and reporting standards.  All other non-grandfathered non-SEC accounting literature not included in the Codification will become non-authoritative.  This Statement is effective for financial statements issued for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009.  The codification is effective for these third quarter financial statements and the principal impact is limited to disclosures as all future references to authoritative literature will be referenced in accordance with the codification.

In April 2009, the FASB issued FSP SFAS 107-1 and APB 28-1 “Interim Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments” (“ASC 825-10” and “ASC 270-10”, Transition Related to FSP SFAS 107-1 and APB 28-1). ASC 825-10and 270-10 amend the disclosure requirements in ASC 825, “Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments”, and ASC 270, “Interim Financial Reporting,” to require disclosures about the fair value of financial instruments, including disclosure of the method(s) and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value of financial instruments, in interim financial statements as well as in a nnual financial statements.  Previously, these disclosures were required only in annual financial statements.  ASC 825-10and 270-10 are effective and should be applied prospectively for financial statements issued for interim and annual reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009.  In periods after initial adoption, ASC 825-10and 270-10 require comparative disclosures only for periods ending subsequent to initial adoption and does not require earlier periods to be disclosed for comparative purposes at initial adoption.  The Company was not impacted by the adoption of this pronouncement.

In May 2009, the FASB issued FASB Statement No. 165, Subsequent Events (“ASC 855”, Subsequent Events), which establishes general standards of and accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued.  This Statement was effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2009.  The Company has complied with the requirements of ASC 855.
 
In August 2009, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2009-05, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820) – Measuring Liabilities at Fair Value. This ASU provides amendments for fair value measurements of liabilities. It provides clarification that in circumstances in which a quoted price in an active market for the identical liability is not available, a reporting entity is required to measure fair value using one or more techniques. ASU 2009-05 also clarifies that when estimating a fair value of a liability, a reporting entity is not required to include a separate input or adjustment to other inputs relating to the existence of a restriction that prevents the transfer of the liability. ASU 2009-05 is effective for the first reporting period (including interim periods) beginning after issuance or fourth quarter 2009. The Company is assessing the impact of ASU 2009-05 on our financial condition, results of operations and disclosures.
 
In March 2008, the FASB issued ASC 815 “Derivatives and Hedging” (Formerly Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 161, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities – an amendment to FASB No. 133” (SFAS 161)).  ASC 815 requires expanded qualitative, quantitative and credit-risk disclosures about derivatives and hedging activities and their effects on the Company’s financial position, financial performance and cash flows.  ASC 815 also clarifies that derivatives are subject to credit risk disclosures as required by SFAS 107, “Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Statements.”  ASC 815 is effective for the year beginning January 1, 2009.  The adoption of ASC 815is not expected to have a material impact on the Com pany’s financial condition and results of operations.

In February 2008, the FASB issued guidance impacting ASC 860, “Transfers and Servicing.” (formerly FASB Staff Position (FSP) No. FAS 140-3, “Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets and Repurchase Financing Transactions.”)  ASC 860requires an initial transfer of a financial asset and a repurchase financing that was entered into contemporaneously or in contemplation of the initial transfer to be evaluated as a linked transaction under SFAS No. 140 unless certain criteria are met, including that the transferred asset must be readily obtainable in the marketplace.  ASC 860is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008, and is applicable to new transactions entered into after the date of adoption.  Early adoption is prohibited.  The adoption of ASC 860 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations.

In December 2007, the FASB issued guidance impacting ASC 805, “Business Combinations” (formerly SFAS No. 141R).  ASC 805 modifies the accounting for business combinations and requires, with limited exceptions, the acquiring entity in a business combination to recognize 100 percent of the assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and any non-controlling interest in the acquiree at the acquisition date fair value.  In addition, ASC 805 limits the recognition of acquisition-related restructuring liabilities and requires the following: the expense of acquisition-related and restructuring costs and the acquirer to record contingent consideration measured at the acquisition date at fair value.  ASC 805 is effective for new acquisitions consummated on or after January 1, 2009.  Early adoption is not permitted.  The Company is currently evaluating the effect of this standard.

In December 2007, the FASB issued guidance impacting ASC 810, Consolidation, which requires all entities to report noncontrolling (minority) interests in subsidiaries as equity in the consolidated financial statements, but separate from the equity of the parent company. The statement further requires that consolidated net income be reported at amounts attributable to the parent and the noncontrolling interest, rather than expensing the income attributable to the minority interest holder. This statement also requires that companies provide sufficient disclosures to clearly identify and distinguish between the interests of the parent company and the interests of the noncontrolling owners, including a disclosure on the face of the consolidated statements for income attributable to the noncontrolling interest holder. Th is new guidance in ASC 810 was effective for the fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2008 SFAS The adoption of ASC 810 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations.

8.  RELATED PARTY TRANSACTION:

 
On December 7, 2009, Brookridge Funding Services, LLC, the Company’s 80% owned subsidiary, acquired certain assets and accounts of Brookridge Funding, LLC. In connection with the closing, Brookridge entered into a credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with MGM Funding, LLC (“MGM”), 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 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. At June 30, 2010, Brookridge owed $146,219 to the Lender.
 
 
 
 
15

 
 
Also in connection with closing, the company received gross proceeds of $500,004 from the sale of 500,004 shares of common stock and ten year warrants to purchase 2,000,016 shares of common stock exercisable at $1.00 per share (the "Equity Investment").  The Equity Investment was purchased one-third by Morry F. Rubin, one-third by George Rubin and one-third by a principal stockholder, each of whom are owners of the Lender.
 
Michael P. Hilton and John A. McNiff III, each co-president of an 80% owned subsidiary, Brookridge, each purchased a ten percent interest in Brookridge at a cost of $150,000 and each agreed to guarantee repayment of the Lender's Credit Facility up to an amount equal to $300,000.  At Closing, the company entered into employment agreements with Messers Hilton and McNiff and granted each of Messrs. Hilton and McNiff's ten year options to purchase 112,500 shares of our common stock at an exercisable price of $1.00 per share.
 
On March 23, 2010, the Board of Directors approved and Anchor entered into a Promissory Note for up to $2 million from MGM Funding, LLC. Morry F. Rubin is the managing member of MGM. The money to be borrowed under the note is subordinate to Anchor’s accounts receivable credit facility. The Promissory Note is to assist Anchor in funding up to 50% of the funds employed for a specific client that Anchor’s senior lender will only fund up to 50% of the funds employed. The senior lender’s limitation is based on the size of the client’s credit facility. The MGM Promissory Note is a demand note.  In addition, when Anchor typically has significant invoice purchase requests from clients, MGM periodically makes short-term loans to Anchor Funding Services, Inc. which then advances the funds to Anchor Funding Serv ices, LLC.  Anchor does not receive same day availability of funds from its senior lender for its daily client invoice purchases requiring it to use its own capital and MGM to meet client demand. These loans are payable on demand and bear interest at 20% per annum. At June 30, 2010, Anchor owed $1,626,986 to MGM.

None.

13.  INCOME TAXES:

As of December 31, 2009, the Company had approximately $3.9 million of net operating loss carryforwards (“NOL”) for income tax purposes.   The NOL’s expire in various years from 2021 through 2024.  The Company’s use of operating loss carryforwards is subject to limitations imposed by the Internal Revenue Code.  Management believes that the deferred tax assets as of June 30, 2010 do not satisfy the realization criteria and has recorded a valuation allowance for the entire net tax asset.  By recording a valuation allowance for the entire amount of future tax benefits, the Company has not recognized a deferred tax benefit for income taxes in its statements of operations.

14. FACILITY LEASES:

The Company has lease agreements for office space in Charlotte, NC, Boca Raton, FL and Danbury, CT.  All lease agreements are with unrelated parties.

The Charlotte lease is effective on August 15, 2007, is for a twenty-four month term and includes an option to renew for an additional three year term at substantially the same terms.  On November 1, 2007, the Company entered into a lease for additional space adjoining its Charlotte office.  In May 2010, the Company extended these leases through May 30, 2011.  The monthly rent for the combined space is approximately $2,340.

Beginning November 1, 2009, the company entered into a 24 month lease for office space in Boca Raton, FL. The monthly rental is approximately $1,300.

In connection with Brookridge’s acquisition of a purchase order finance company, Brookridge assumed the seller’s lease for office space in Danbury, CT. The lease is for a monthly rental of $3,585 and expires on September 30, 2014.

The rental expense for the quarters ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 was approximately $21,714 and $34,574, respectively.

The rental expense for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 was approximately $43,427 and $69,154, respectively.

15. ACQUSITIONS:

On December 4, 2009, the Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Asset Purchase Agreement”) with Brookridge Funding, LLC (“Seller”) 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 operates the Acquired Business.  The purchase price for the Acquired Business was $2,389,824 million representing the fair market value of the Acquired Business’s purchased accounts receivable and purchase order advances.

 
Since the purchase price equaled the fair market value of the net assets acquired, no Goodwill was recorded for the initial transaction.
 
For five years, the Sellers are to receive 20% of Brookridge’s net operating income, paid quarterly, up to a total of $800,000. Based on discounted cash flow and net present value analyses, the Company has recorded $480,000 of Goodwill and Intangibles and a corresponding liability in connection with contingent payments due to the Sellers. The estimated fair values are subject to change pending a final analysis of the total purchase price and the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Goodwill from this transaction will be deductible.
 
16. BROOKRIDGE CREDIT LOSS:
 
In April 2010, the Company’s 80% owned subsidiary, Brookridge, incurred a credit loss of approximately $650,000 due to what appears to be a fraud committed by a Brookridge client. Anchor’s interest in this loss is 80% or approximately $520,000. Brookridge financed inventory purchased by this client who sold the inventory for the benefit of another company not funded by Brookridge resulting in the loss of Brookridge’s collateral rights in the inventory. As a result, Brookridge recorded a charge of $650,000 for credit losses in April, 2010. Brookridge is pursuing all collection remedies available to it under its purchase order and factoring agreements, including enforcement of its rights under a personal guaranty by the client’s principal. 
 
  17. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS:

On July 13, 2010, Anchor Funding Services, Inc. (the "Company") entered into a Memorandum Of Understanding (the "Agreement) with the Minority Members of its 80% owned subsidiary, Brookridge Funding Services, LLC ("Brookridge"). The purpose of this Agreement is to rescind the Company's acquisition of certain assets of Brookridge Funding, LLC that occurred on December 7, 2009.
 
Under the terms of the Agreement, the Minority Members of Brookridge have until October 7, 2010 to purchase Anchor's interest in Brookridge at book value and retire Brookridge's debt with its lender, MGM Funding, LLC. If this does not occur by October 7, 2010, then the Company has until October 12, 2010 to purchase the Minority Members interest at book value.
 
At the Closing of either of these transactions the parties will sign Mutual Releases and the party not purchasing the other party's interests will enter into a non-solicitation agreement preventing it from soliciting Brookridge customers for two years.

In April 2010, Brookridge incurred a credit loss of approximately $650,000 as described in Note 16. The Agreement provides for 80% of any recovery of the credit loss to benefit the Company and the remaining 20% to benefit the Minority Members.

Brookridge’s operations are in Danbury, Connecticut and we maintain an executive office in Boca Raton, Florida which includes the Company’s sales and marketing functions.
 
Summary of Critical Accounting Policies

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations discusses our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period.  On an on-going basis, management evaluates its estimates and judgments, including those related to credit provisions, intangible assets, contingencies, litigation and income taxes.  Management bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience as w ell as various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. Management believes the following critical accounting policies, among others, reflect the more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our financial statements.

Summary of Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 
Principles of Consolidation - The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Anchor Funding Services, Inc., its wholly owned subsidiary, Anchor Funding Services, LLC and its 80% owned subsidiary Brookridge Funding Services, LLC as of June 30, 2010. The consolidated statement of operations for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2010 includes the results of Brookridge Funding Services, LLC, and Anchor Funding Services, LLC.  The consolidated statement of operations for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2009 does not include the results of Brookridge Funding Services, LLC.

 
Estimates – The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 
Revenue Recognition – The Company charges fees to its customers in one of two ways as follows:

3)  
Fixed Transaction Fee. Fixed transaction fees are a fixed percentage of the purchased invoice and purchase order advance.  This percentage does not change from the date the purchased invoice is funded until the date the purchased invoice is collected.
 
4)  
Variable Transaction Fee.  Variable transaction fees are variable based on the length of time the purchased invoice and purchase order advance is outstanding.   As specified in its contract with the client, the Company charges variable increasing percentages of the purchased invoice or purchase order advance as time elapses from the purchase date to the collection date.
 
 
 
 
22

 

 
 
 
For both Fixed and Variable Transaction fees, the Company recognizes revenue by using one of two methods depending on the type of customer.  For new customers the Company recognizes revenue using the cost recovery method.  For established customers the Company recognizes revenue using the accrual method.

 
Under the cost recovery method, all revenue is recognized upon collection of the entire amount of purchased accounts receivable.

 
The Company considers new customers to be accounts whose initial funding has been within the last three months or less.  Management believes it needs three months of history to reasonably estimate a customer’s collection period and accrued revenues.  If three months of history has a limited number of transactions, the cost recovery method will continue to be used until a reasonable revenue estimate can be made based on additional history.  Once the Company obtains sufficient historical experience, it will begin using the accrual method to recognize revenue.

 
For established customers the Company uses the accrual method of accounting.  The Company applies this method by multiplying the historical yield, for each customer, times the amount advanced on each purchased invoice outstanding for that customer, times the portion of a year that the advance is outstanding.  The customers’ historical yield is based on the Company’s last six months of experience with the customer along with the Company’s experience in the customer’s industry, if applicable.

 
The amounts recorded as revenue under the accrual method described above are estimates.  As purchased invoices and purchase order advances are collected, the Company records the appropriate adjustments to record the actual revenue earned on each purchased invoice and purchase order advance. Adjustments from the estimated revenue to the actual revenue have not been material.

 
Retained Interest in Purchased Accounts Receivable – Retained interest in purchased accounts receivable represents the gross amount of invoices purchased and advances on purchase orders from clients less amounts maintained in a reserve account.  For factoring transactions, the Company purchases a customer’s accounts receivable and advances them a percentage of the invoice total.  The difference between the purchase price and amount advanced is maintained in a reserve account.  The reserve account is used to offset any potential losses the Company may have related to the purchased accounts receivable.  For purchase order transactions the company advances and pays for 100% of the product’s cost.

 
The Company’s factoring and security agreements with their customers include various recourse provisions requiring the customers to repurchase accounts receivable if certain conditions, as defined in the factoring and security agreement, are met.

 
Senior management reviews the status of uncollected purchased accounts receivable and purchase order advances monthly to determine if any are uncollectible.  The Company has a security interest in the accounts receivable and inventory purchased and, on a case-by-case basis, may have additional collateral.  The Company files security interests in the property securing their advances.  Access to this collateral is dependent upon the laws and regulations in each state where the security interest is filed.  Additionally, the Company has varying types of personal guarantees from their customers relating to the purchased accounts receivable and purchase order advances.

 
Management considered approximately $706,000 of their June 30, 2010 and $57,000 of their December 31, 2009 retained interest in purchased accounts receivable to be uncollectible (See Note 16 , above).

 
Management believes the fair value of the retained interest in purchased accounts receivable approximates its recorded value because of the relatively short term nature of the purchased receivable and the fact that the majority of these invoices have been subsequently collected. As of June 30, 2010, accounts receivable purchased over 90 days old and still accruing fees totaled approximately $392,878.

 
Property and Equipment – Property and equipment, consisting of furniture and fixtures and computers and software, are stated at cost.  Depreciation is provided over the estimated useful lives of the depreciable assets using the straight-line method.  Estimated useful lives range from 2 to 7 years.
 
 
 
 
23

 

 
 
  Goodwill and Intangible Assets – Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of purchased businesses over the  fair value of the net assets acquired.
 
 
The Company tests the goodwill balance for impairment annually and between annual tests if circumstances would require it.  The Company’s goodwill testing is a two-step process with the first step being a test for potential impairment by comparing the fair value of the reporting unit with its carrying amount (including goodwill).  If the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds the carrying amount, then no impairment exists.  If the carrying amount of the reporting unit exceeds the fair value, the Company completes the second step to measure the amount of the impairment, if any.  The Company will complete the annual test for impairment during its fourth quarter in future years
 
 
Identifiable intangible assets are carried at amortized cost.  Intangible assets with definite lives are amortized over their useful lives and amortization is computed using the straight line method over their expected useful lives.  Long-lived assets are tested for recoverability whenever events of changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable.  Impairment losses are recognized if the carrying amount of a long-lived asset is not recoverable and exceeds its fair value.
 

 
Advertising Costs – The Company charges advertising costs to expense as incurred.  Total advertising costs were approximately $75,000 and $86,000 for the quarters ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The Company charges advertising costs to expense as incurred.  Total advertising costs were approximately $142,000 and $173,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.


 
Earnings per Share – Basic net income per share is computed by dividing the net income for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.  Dilutive earnings per share include the potential impact of dilutive securities, such as convertible preferred stock, stock options and stock warrants.  The dilutive effect of stock options and warrants is computed using the treasury stock method, which assumes the repurchase of common shares at the average market price.

Under the treasury stock method, options and warrants will have dilutive effect when the average price of common stock during the period exceeds the exercise price of options or warrants.  For the quarters ending June 30, 2010 and 2009, the average price of common stock was less than the exercise price of the options and warrants.  For the six months ending June 30, 2010 and 2009, the average price of common stock was less than the exercise price of the options and warrants.  

 
Also when there is a year-to-date loss from continuing operations, potential common shares should not be included in the computation of diluted earnings per share, since they would have an anti-dilutive effect.  For the quarters ending June 30, 2010 and 2009, there was a year-to-date loss from continuing operations.  For the six months ending June 30, 2010 and 2009, there was a year-to-date loss from continuing operations.  

 
Stock Based Compensation - The fair value of transactions in which the Company exchanges its equity instruments for employee services (share-based payment transactions) must be recognized as an expense in the financial statements as services are performed.

Compensation expense is determined by reference to the fair value of an award on the date of grant and is amortized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period. We have elected to use the Black-Scholes-Merton (BSM) pricing model to determine the fair value of all stock option awards.
 
 
See Note 10 for the impact on the operating results for the quarters and six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009.

 
Fair Value of Financial Instruments – The carrying value of cash equivalents, retained interest in purchased accounts receivable, due to financial institution, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximates their fair value.

 
Cash and cash equivalents – Cash and cash equivalents consist primarily of highly liquid cash investment funds with original maturities of three months or less when acquired.

 
Income Taxes –The Company is a “C” corporation for income tax purposes.  In a “C” corporation income taxes are provided for the tax effects of transactions reported in the financial statements plus deferred income taxes related to the differences between financial statement and taxable income.
 
 
 
 
24

 

 
 
The primary differences between financial statement and taxable income for the Company are as follows:

·  
Compensation costs related to the issuance of stock options
·  
Use of the reserve method of accounting for bad debts
·  
Differences in bases of property and equipment between financial and income tax reporting
·  
Net operating loss carryforwards.

The deferred tax asset represents the future tax return consequences of utilizing these items.   Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation reserve, when management is uncertain if the net deferred tax assets will ever be realized.

Prior to January 31, 2007, Anchor Funding Services, LLC was treated as a partnership for Federal and state income tax purposes.  Its earnings and losses were included in the personal tax returns of its members; therefore, no provision or benefit from income taxes has been included in those financial statements.

In July 2006, FASB issued guidance for accounting for uncertainty in income tax positions which clarifies the accounting for uncertain tax positions.  This FASB requires that the Company recognize in its consolidated financial statements, the impact of a tax position, if that position is more likely than not of being sustained on audit, based on the technical merits of the position.

The Company applied this guidance to all its tax positions, including tax positions taken and those expected to be taken, under the transition provision of the interpretation.
 
For the quarters ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, the Company recognized no liability for uncertain tax positions.
 
The Company classifies interest accrued on unrecognized tax benefits with interest expense.  Penalties accrued on unrecognized tax benefits are classified with operating expenses.

Recent Developments

On July 13, 2010, Anchor Funding Services, Inc. (the "Company") entered into a Memorandum Of Understanding (the "Agreement) with the Minority Members of its 80% owned subsidiary, Brookridge Funding Services, LLC ("Brookridge"). The purpose of this Agreement is to rescind the Company's acquisition of certain assets of Brookridge Funding, LLC that occurred on December 7, 2009.
 
Under the terms of the Agreement, the Minority Members of Brookridge have until October 7, 2010 to purchase Anchor's interest in Brookridge at book value and retire Brookridge's debt with its lender, MGM Funding, LLC. If this does not occur by October 7, 2010, then the Company has until October 12, 2010 to purchase the Minority Members interest at book value.
 
At the Closing of either of these transactions the parties will sign Mutual Releases and the party not purchasing the other party's interests will enter into a non-solicitation agreement preventing it from soliciting Brookridge customers for two years.

As of June 30, 2010, Anchor’s interest at book value in Brookridge was approximately $686,000. If under the terms of the Agreement, the Minority Members buy Anchor’s interest, then Anchor will use this cash to pay its debt with lenders. This would result in interest savings of approximately $137,000 per annum if the Minority Members’ payment was $686,000.

If the Minority Members do not buy Anchor’s interest in Brookridge by October 7th, then Anchor will buy the Minority Members’ interest, which was $171,502 as of June 30, 2010. Anchor anticipates it would then assimilate Brookridge’s accounts into it’s Charlotte, NC operations and completely wind down Brookridge’s Connecticut operations. Anchor believes that this plan would add to earnings as long as the Brookridge accounts were retained.

Results of Operations
 
Three Months Ended June 30, 2010 vs. Three Months Ended June 30, 2009.

Finance revenues increased appproximately 115% for the three months ended June 30, 2010 to $844,801 compared to $393,202 for the comparable period of the prior year.   The change in revenue was due to additional revenues of approximately $196,571 from Anchor’s new Brookridge subsidiary, $150,000 from a new major customer and the balance from an overall increase in Anchor’s invoice purchases from existing and new clients, compared to the same period last year.  In addition, as of June 30, 2010, the Company had 135 active clients compared to 103 active clients as of June 30, 2009. 

The Company had net interest and commission expense of $288,511 for the three months ended June 30, 2010 compared to interest expense of $20,718 for the three months ended June 30, 2009. This change is primarily the result of the increase in cost of funds under Anchor’s senior credit facility and the additional interest expense totaling $97,570 incurred by Anchor and Brookridge for their funding transactions from an affiliated party. See "Note 8."
 
The Company had a provision for credit losses of $650,485 for the three months ended June 30, 2010 compared to $21,646 for the three months ended June 30, 2009. In April 2010, the Company’s 80% owned subsidiary, Brookridge, incurred a credit loss of approximately $650,000 due to what appears to be a fraud committed by a Brookridge client. Anchor’s interest in this loss is 80% or approximately $520,000. Brookridge financed inventory purchased by this client who sold the inventory for the benefit of another company not funded by Brookridge resulting in the loss of Brookridge’s collateral rights in the inventory. As a result, Brookridge recorded a charge of $650,000 for credit losses in April, 2010. Brookridge is pursuing all collection remedies available to it under its purchase order and factoring agreements, including enforcement of its rights under a personal guaranty by the client’s principal.  
 
Operating expenses for three months ended June 30, 2010 were $605,793 compared to $698,610 for the three months ended June 30, 2009, a 13.3% decrease.  Anchor’s cost saving measures starting in the fourth quarter of 2009, resulted in a decrease of approximately $255,000 of operating expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2010. This decrease was offset by Brookridge’s operating expenses of approximately $162,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2010.
 
Controlling interest share of the net loss for the three months ended June 30, 2010 was $(563,246) compared to $(347,772) for the three months ended June 30, 2009. Our second quarter operations were adversely effected by the credit loss of $520,000 as described above. Net loss attributable to common shareholder by operating entity was as follows for the three months ended June 30, 2010:

       
Anchor Funding Services, Inc and Anchor Funding Services, LLC
  $ (20,303 )

Six Months Ended June 30, 2010 versus Six Months Ended June 30, 2009

Finance revenues increased approximately 107% for the six months ended June 30, 2010 to $1,646,820 compared to $797,480 for the comparable period of the prior year.   The change in revenue was primarily due to additional revenues of approximately $545,238 from Anchor’s new Brookridge subsidiary and the balance from an increase in Anchor’s invoice purchases from existing and new clients, compared to the same period last year. In addition, as of June 30, 2010, the Company had 135 active clients compared to 103 active clients as of June 30, 2009. 

The Company had net interest and commissions expense of $534,253 for the six months ended June 30, 2010 compared to interest expense of $33,617 for the six months ended June 30, 2009. This change is primarily the result of the increase in cost of funds under Anchor’s senior credit facility and the additional interest expense totaling $191,303 incurred by Anchor and Brookridge for their funding transactions from an affiliated party. See "Note 8." to the quarterly financial statements.

The Company had a provision for credit losses of $649,187 for the six months ended June 30, 2010 compared to $27,709 for the six months ended June 30, 2009.In April 2010, the Company’s 80% owned subsidiary, Brookridge, incurred a credit loss of approximately $650,000 due to what appears to be a fraud committed by a Brookridge client. Anchor’s interest in this loss is 80% or approximately $520,000. Brookridge financed inventory purchased by this client who sold the inventory for the benefit of another company not funded by Brookridge resulting in the loss of Brookridge’s collateral rights in the inventory. As a result, Brookridge recorded a charge of $650,000 for credit losses in April, 2010. Brookridge is pursuing all collection remedies available to it under its purchase order and factoring agreements, including enfo rcement of its rights under a personal guaranty by the client’s principal.  
 
Operating expenses for six months ended June 30, 2010 were $1,237,886 compared to $1,409,807 for the six months ended June 30, 2009, a 12.2% decrease.  Anchor’s cost saving measures starting in the fourth quarter of 2009, resulted in a decrease of approximately $481,000 of operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2010. This decrease was offset by Brookridge’s operating expenses of approximately $306,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2010.
 
 
Controlling interest share of the net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2010 was $(654,857) compared to $(673,653) for the six months ended June 30, 2009. Our operations were adversely effected by the credit loss of $520,000 as described above.
 
Net loss attributable to common shareholder by operating entity was as follows for the six months ended June 30, 2010:

Cash Flow Summary

Cash Flows from Operating Activities
 
Net cash used by operating activities was $3,940,498 for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and was primarily due to our net loss for the period and cash used in acquiring operating assets, primarily to purchase accounts receivable. The increase in retained interest in purchased accounts receivable was $4,071,697.  Increases and decreases in prepaid expenses, accounts payable, accrued payroll and accrued expenses were primarily the result of timing of payments and receipts.

Net cash used by operating activities was $792,667 for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and was primarily due to our net loss for the period and cash used in acquiring operating assets, primarily to purchase accounts receivable.  Increases and decreases in prepaid expenses, accounts payable, accrued payroll and accrued expenses were primarily the result of timing of payments and receipts.

2007 Financing

Between January 31, 2007 and April 5, 2007, we raised $6,712,500 in gross proceeds from the sale of 1,342,500 shares of our Series 1 Convertible Preferred Stock to expand our operations both internally and through possible acquisitions as more fully described under “Description of Business.”
 
 Capital Resources We have the availability of a $7 million (expandable to $9 million) senior accounts receivable facility through November 2010 with an institutional asset based lender which advances funds against up to 90% of “eligible net factored accounts receivable” (minus client reserves as lender may establish in good faith) as defined in Anchor’s agreement with its institutional lender. This facility is secured by our assets, and contains certain standard covenants, representations and warranties for loans of this type.  In the event that we fail to comply with the covenant(s) and the lender does not waive such non-compliance, we could be in default of our credit facility, which could subject us to penalty rates of interest and accelerate the maturity of the outstanding balances.  We also have entered into a Senior Credit Agreement with MGM Funding, LLC, an affiliated entity owned by the co-chairmen of the Company and an outside investor, to provide loans directly to the operations of our Brookridge subsidiary.  Loans made by this facility bear interest at the rate of 20% per annum and cannot exceed a maximum of $3.7 million dollars.  The obligations to MGM are secured by the assets of Brookridge.  The Credit Agreement contains standard representations, warranties and events of default for facilities of this type.  Occurrences of an event of default under either one of our credit facilities allows the lender to accelerate the payment of the loans and/or terminate the commitments to lend, in addition to other legal remedies, including foreclosure on collateral.  In the event we are not able to maintain adequate credit facilities for our factoring, purchase order financing and acquisition needs on commercially reasonable terms, our ability to operate our business and complete one or more acquisitions would be significantly impacted and our financial condition and results of operations could suffer.  We can provide no assurances that replacement facilities will be obtained by us on terms satisfactory to us, if at all.
 
On March 23, 2010, the Board of Directors approved and Anchor entered into a Promissory Note for up to $2 million from MGM Funding, LLC. Morry F. Rubin is the managing member of MGM. The money to be borrowed under the note is subordinate to Anchor’s accounts receivable credit facility. The Promissory Note is to assist Anchor in funding up to 50% of the funds employed for a specific client that Anchor’s senior lender will only fund up to 50% of the funds employed. The senior lender’s limitation is based on the size of the client’s credit facility. The MGM Promissory Note is a demand note.  In addition, when Anchor typically has significant invoice purchase requests from clients, MGM periodically makes short-term loans to Anchor Funding Services, Inc. whic h then advances the funds to Anchor Funding Services, LLC.  Anchor does not receive same day availability of funds from its senior lender for its daily client invoice purchases requiring it to use its own capital and MGM to meet client demand. These loans are payable on demand and bear interest at 20% per annum. At June 30, 2010, Anchor owed $1,626,986 to MGM.
 
Based on our current cash position and our Credit Facilities, we believe can meet our cash needs for the next 12 to 15 months and support our anticipated organic growth. In the event we acquire another company, we may need additional equity or subordinated debt financing and/or a new credit facility to complete the transaction and our daily cash needs and liquidity could change based on the needs of the combined companies.  At that time, in the event we are not able to obtain adequate new facilities and/or financing to complete the acquisition (if needed) and to operate the combined companies financing needs on commercially reasonable terms, our ability to operate and expand our business would be significantly impacted and our financial condition and results of operations could suffer.

ITEM 3.
QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
 
Market risk is the risk of loss arising from adverse changes in market rates and prices, such as interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates and commodity prices. Our primary exposure to market risk is interest rate risk associated with our short term money market investments. The Company does not have any financial instruments held for trading or other speculative purposes and does not invest in derivative financial instruments, interest rate swaps or other investments that alter interest rate exposure. The Company does not have any credit facilities with variable interest rates.

ITEM 4.
CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Company's Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company's management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure based closely on the definition of "disclosure controls and procedures" in Rule 13a-15(e). In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objective s, and management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. The Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company's management, including the Company's Chief Executive Officer and the Company's Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures. Based on the foregoing, the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level at the end of our most recent quarter. There have been no changes in the Company's disclosure controls and procedures or in other factors that could affect the disclosure controls subsequent to the date the Company completed its evaluation. Therefore, no corrective actions were taken.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE – August 16, 2010

Anchor Funding Services, Inc. reports second quarter and six months fiscal 2010 results.

Boca Raton, Fl. (PR Newswire) August 16, 2010– Anchor Funding Services, Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board Symbol “AFNG.OB”) announced today its results of operations for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2010. The company reported second quarter 2010 finance revenues of $844,801 as compared to $393,202 for the comparable period of the prior year. The company reported a controlling interest share of net loss of $563,246 for the three months ended June 30, 2010 as compared to a controlling interest share of net loss of $347,772 for the comparable period of the prior year. The company reported finance rev enues for the six months ended June 30, 2010 of $1,646,820 compared to $797,480 for the comparable period of the prior year. The Company reported a controlling interest share of net loss of $654,857 for the six months ended June 30, 2010 compared to a controlling interest share of net loss of $673,653 for the comparable period of the prior year. The increase in revenues is attributable to the increase in Anchor's base business and contribution from its 80% owned subsidiary. The increase in net loss is attributable to a credit loss described below.

We continue to experience demand from small businesses seeking credit and accounts receivable financing. As a result, Anchor has enjoyed continued growth in its accounts receivable portfolio in the second quarter of 2010 having achieved its highest accounts receivable purchase quarter, exceeding $28 million, as compared to approximately $ 13 million for the comparable period of the prior year.

As indicated in the chart below for the three months ended June 30, 2010, Anchor, excluding its Brookridge ownership interest, had a net loss of $20,303 as compared to a net loss of $347,772 before preferred stock dividends for the comparable period of the prior year. This marks a major improvement in Anchor's operating performance of its base business as the company has increased its invoice purchases and lowered its operating overhead.

Consolidated net loss attributable to common shareholder
  $ (563,246 )

In April 2010, Brookridge incurred a credit loss of approximately $650,000 due to what appears to be a fraud committed by a Brookridge client. Anchor’s interest in this loss is 80% or approximately $520,000. Brookridge financed inventory purchased by this client who sold the inventory for the benefit of another company not funded by Brookridge resulting in the loss of Brookridge’s collateral rights in the inventory. As a result, Brookridge is recording a charge of $650,000 for credit losses in April, 2010. Brookridge’s March 31, 2010 outstanding advances to this client were subsequently paid; the charge, which is fully recorded in this period, relates to advances made in April 2010. Brookridge is pursuing all collection remedies available to it under its purchase order and factoring agreements, including enforcement o f its rights under a personal guaranty by the client’s principal. 

In July 2010, we entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (the "Agreement) with the Minority Members of our 80% owned subsidiary, Brookridge Funding Services, LLC ("Brookridge"). The purpose of this Agreement is to rescind the Company's acquisition of certain assets of Brookridge Funding, LLC that occurred on December 7, 2009. Under the terms of the Agreement, the Minority Members of Brookridge have until October 7, 2010 to purchase Anchor's interest in Brookridge at book value and retire Brookridge's debt with its lender, MGM Funding, LLC. If this does not occur by October 7, 2010, then the Company has until October 12, 2010 to purchase the Minority Members interest at book value. At the Closing of either of these transactions the parties will sign Mutual Releases and the party not purchasing the other party's interests will en ter into a non-solicitation agreement preventing it from soliciting Brookridge customers for two years. The Agreement provides for 80% of any recovery of the credit loss to benefit the Company and the remaining 20% to benefit the Minority Members.

As of June 30, 2010, Anchor’s interest at book value in Brookridge was approximately $686,000. If under the terms of the Agreement, the Minority Members buy Anchor’s interest, then Anchor will use this cash to pay its debt with lenders. This would result in interest savings of approximately $137,000 per annum if the Minority Members’ payment was $686,000.

If the Minority Members do not buy Anchor’s interest in Brookridge by October 7th, then Anchor will buy the Minority Members’ interest, which was $171,502 as of June 30, 2010. Anchor anticipates it would then assimilate Brookridge’s accounts into its Charlotte, NC operations and completely wind down Brookridge’s Connecticut operations. Anchor believes that this plan would add to earnings as long as the Brookridge accounts were retained.

Based upon anticipated continued growth and success with our marketing programs, we expect Anchor, excluding Brookridge, to show continued improvement in its operating performance. We are excited about our future expansion opportunities and will continue to communicate important developments as they occur.
