Notes To Consolidated Financial Statements
Three Months Ended March 31, 2011 and 2010
(Unaudited)

The Consolidated Balance Sheet as of March 31, 2011, the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Consolidated Statements of Stockholders’ Equity for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 and the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 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 March 31, 2011, results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 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, 2010.

1.  BACKGROUND AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS:
 
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Anchor Funding Services, Inc. (formerly BTHC XI, Inc.) and its wholly owned subsidiary, Anchor Funding Services, LLC (“Anchor”).  On October 6, 2010, we completed the rescission of our acquisition of certain assets of Brookridge Funding, LLC that occurred on December 7, 2009. On October 6, 2010, the Minority members of our 80% owned subsidiary Brookridge Funding Services, LLC (“Brookridge”) purchased Anchor’s interest in Brookridge at book value of approximately $783,000. The consolidated statements of operations and the consolidated statements of cash flows  for the three months ended March 31, 2010 reflect the historical operations of Brookridge as discontinued operations. The 2010 consolidated balance sheet contains amounts attributable to Brookridge which are classified as discontinued. Accordingly, we have generally presented the notes to our consolidated financial statements on the basis of continuing operations which has caused certain reclassifications within the financial statements and related footnotes. In addition, unless stated otherwise, any reference to income statement items in these financial statements refers to results from continuing operations.

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.

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.
 
2.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
 
Principles of Consolidation - The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Anchor Funding Services, Inc. and, its wholly owned subsidiary, Anchor Funding Services, LLC (continuing operations). Anchor’s former 80% interest in Brookridge Funding Services, LLC is reflected in the consolidated statements of operations and the consolidated statements of cash flows as discontinued operations for the three months ended March 31, 2010.
 
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.
   
 
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.
 
 
 
 
F-5

 

 
For both Fixed and Variable Transaction fees, the Company recognizes revenue by using one of two methods depending on the type   ofcustomer.  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 up to 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 $80,500 of their March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010 retained interest in purchased accounts receivable to be uncollectible.

 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 March 31, 2011, accounts receivable purchased over 90 days old and still accruing fees totaled approximately $159,000. None of this amount was related to a certain client that seasonally receives payments from its customers from October through January each year.
 
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.

Advertising Costs – The Company charges advertising costs to expense as incurred.  Total advertising costs were approximately $58,000 and $67,000 for the quarters ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, 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.
 
 
 
 
F-6

 

 
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 March 31, 2011 and 2010, 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 quarter ending March 31, 2010 there was a 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 8 for the impact on the operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010.

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.


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 three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010,  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.

ASU 2010-02 addresses implementation issues related to the changes in ownership provisions of the Codification. It establishes the accounting and reporting guidance for noncontrolling interests and changes in ownership interests of a subsidiary. An entity is required to deconsolidate a subsidiary when the entity ceases to have a controlling financial interest in the subsidiary. Upon deconsolidation of a subsidiary, an entity recognizes a gain or loss on the transaction and measures any retained investment in the subsidiary at fair value. The gain or loss includes any gain or loss associated with the difference between the fair value of the retained investment in the subsidiary and its carrying amount at the date the subsidiary is deconsolidated. In contrast, an entity is required to account for a decrease in ownership interest of a subsidiary that does not result in a change of control of the subsidiary as an equity transaction. ASU 2010-02 was effective for us on January 1, 2010. We adopted this guidance during 2010. See also Note 1  to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

In January 2010, the FASB ratified ASU 2010-06 “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures — Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements”. ASU 2010-06 requires new disclosures for significant transfers in and out of Level 1 and 2 of the fair value hierarchy and the level of disaggregation of assets or liabilities and the valuation techniques and inputs used to measure fair value. We adopted the updated guidance, which was effective for our annual reporting period at December 31, 2009, with the exception of new Level 3 activity disclosures, which are effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2010. We do not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on our consolidated results of operations and financial condition.

In February 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-09 “Subsequent Events (Topic 855) Amendments to Certain Recognition and Disclosure Requirements”. ASU 2010-09 amends disclosure requirements so that an entity that is an SEC filer is not required to disclose the date through which subsequent events have been evaluated. This change alleviates potential conflicts between the Codification and the SEC’s requirements. ASU 2010-09 is effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2010. The adoption of ASU 2010-09 did not have a material impact on our consolidated results of operations or financial position.

In July 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-20, “Disclosure about the Credit Quality of Financing Receivables and the Allowance for Credit Losse” which was effective upon issuance. ASU 2010-20 amends Topic 310 to improve the disclosures that an entity provides about the credit quality of its financing receivables and the related allowance for credit losses. As a result of these amendments, an entity is required to disaggregate by portfolio segment or class certain existing disclosures and provide new disclosures about its financing receivables and related allowance for credit losses. These provisions are effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending on or after December 15, 2010. In January 2011, ASU 2011-06, “Receivables (Topic 310): Deferral of the Effective Date of Disclosures about Troubled Debt Restructurings in Update No. 2010-20” is issued to temporarily delay the effective date of the disclosures about troubled debt restructurings for public entities. The delay is intended to allow the FASB time to complete its deliberations on what constitutes a troubled debt restructuring. Accordingly, ASU 2010-20 is changed to be effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2011. We assessed that ASU 2010-20 concerns disclosures only and will not have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.

In August 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-22, “Accounting for Various Topics—Technical Corrections to SEC Paragraphs”. ASU 2010-22 amends various SEC paragraphs based on external comments received and the issuance of SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) No. 112, which amends or rescinds portions of certain SAB topics. The topics affected include reporting of inventories in financial statements for Form 10-Q, debt issue costs in conjunction with a business combination, sales of stock by subsidiary, gain recognition on sales of business, business combinations prior to an initial public offering, loss contingent and liability assumed in business combination, divestitures, and oil and gas exchange offers. We are currently evaluating the effect of ASU 2010-22 on our financial statements and believe it would not have a material impact on our results of operations.

In September 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-20, Disclosures about the Credit Quality of Financing Receivables and the Allowance for Credit Losses, to enhance the disclosures required for financing receivables (for example, loans, trade accounts receivable, notes receivable, and receivables relating to a lessor’s leveraged, direct financing, and sales-type leases) and allowances for credit losses. The amended disclosures are designed to provide more information to financial statement users regarding the credit quality of a creditor’s financing receivables and the adequacy of its allowance for credit losses. We adopted all of the requirements of the amended guidance on December 31, 2010, its effective date, except for the disclosures regarding the activity during a reporting period which  became effective January 1, 2011. Adoption of the pronouncement has not had, and is not expected to have, a significant effect on our consolidated financial statement disclosures.

5.  DUE TO FINANCIAL INSTITUTION:

On, November 30, 2009, Anchor Funding Services, LLC, entered into a $7 million senior Accounts Receivable (A/R) Credit Facility with a maximum amount of up to $9 million with lender approval.  This funding facility is based upon Anchor's submission and approval of eligible accounts receivable. This facility replaced Anchor’s revolving credit facility from another financial institution.  Anchor pays .5% for the first 30 days of the face value for each invoice funded and .016% for each day thereafter until collected. In addition, interest on advances is paid monthly at the Prime Rate plus 2.0%.  Anchor pays the financial institution various other monthly fees as defined in the agreement. The agreement requires that Anchor use $1,000,000 of its own funds first to finance its clients.  The agreement contains customary representations and warranties, events of default and limitations, among other provisions. The agreement is collateralized by a first lien on all Anchors’ assets.  Borrowings on this agreement are partially guaranteed by the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer.  The partial guarantee is $250,000 each.  On February 10, 2011, Anchor’s agreement with this financial institution was amended such that beginning February 10, 2011 Anchor would no longer pay discount fees and Anchor would pay interest on advances at the Prime Rate plus 8.0%  through November 30, 2011 and at the Prime Rate plus 9.0% thereafter. Anchor owed this financial institution $5,469,636 as of March 31, 2011 and $5,607,572 as of December 31, 2010.
 
The agreement automatically renews each year for an additional year provided that the Company has not provided 60 days notice to the financial institution in advance of the anniversary date. The agreement will expire November 30, 2011.
   
6.  CAPITAL STRUCTURE:
 
The Company’s capital structure consists of preferred and common stock as described below:
   
 
 
Preferred Stock – The Company is authorized to issue 10,000,000 shares of $.001 par value preferred stock.  The Company’s Board of Directors determines the rights and preferences of its preferred stock.
 
   
 
On January 31, 2007, the Company filed a Certificate of Designation with the Secretary of State of Delaware.  Effective with this filing, 2,000,000 preferred shares became Series 1 Convertible Preferred Stock.  Series 1 Convertible Preferred Stock will rank senior to Common Stock.
   
 
Series 1 Convertible Preferred Stock is convertible into five shares of the Company’s Common Stock.  The holder of the Series 1 Convertible Preferred Stock has the option to convert the shares to Common Stock at any time.  Upon conversion all accumulated and unpaid dividends will be paid as additional shares of Common Stock.

The dividend rate on Series 1 Convertible Preferred Stock is 8%.  Dividends are paid annually on December 31st in the form of additional Series 1 Convertible Preferred Stock unless the Board of Directors approves a cash dividend.  Dividends on Series 1 Convertible Preferred Stock ceased to accrue on the earlier of December 31, 2009, or on the date they are converted to Common Shares.  Thereafter, the holders of Series 1 Convertible Preferred Stock have the same dividend rights as holders of Common Stock, as if the Series 1 Convertible Preferred Stock had been converted to Common Stock.
 
Common Stock – The Company is authorized to issue 65,000,000 shares of $.0001 par value Common Stock.  Each share of Common Stock entitles the holder to one vote at all stockholder meetings.  Dividends on Common Stock will be determined annually by the Company’s Board of Directors.

7. 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  provided a $3.7 million senior credit facility to Brookridge.  Morry F. Rubin is the managing member of MGM. Loans under the Credit Agreement were secured by all of Brookridge’s assets and were charged interest at a 20% annual rate. The Credit Agreement contained standard representations, covenants and events of default for facilities of this type.  Occurrence of an event of default allowed 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 December 31, 2009, $164,899 was due from the Lender because collections in excess of the loan balance swept to the Lender account for payment. This amount was subsequently paid.  On October 6, 2010, in connection with Anchor’s rescission of its purchase of certain assets of Brookridge Funding, MGM terminated the Credit Agreement. For the period from January 1, 2010 through October 5, 2010, Brookridge paid $206,582 of interest to MGM. See Note 15 “Acquisition and Discontinued Operations.”
 
 
 
F-10

 
 
 Also in connection with closing, the company received gross proceeds of $500,002 from the sale of 500,002 shares of common stock and ten year warrants to purchase 2,000,004 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 Hilton and McNiff and granted each ten year options to purchase 112,500 shares of our common stock at an exercisable price of $1.00 per share. On October 6, 2010, in connection with Anchor’s rescission of its purchase of certain assets of Brookridge Funding, the employment agreements with Hilton and McNiff and their options were terminated. See Note 14 “Acquisition and Discontinued Operations.”

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 was subordinate to Anchor’s accounts receivable credit facility. The Promissory Note was 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 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 were payable on demand and accrued interest at 20% per annum. This note was subsequently replaced by the Promissory Note described below.

On April 26, 2011, the Board of Directors approved and Anchor Funding Services, Inc. ("Anchor") entered into a Promissory Note for up to $2 million from MGM Funding, LLC. The money to be borrowed under the note is subordinate to Anchor’s accounts receivable credit facility with a senior lender, which requires funds employed to be no less than $5,000,000 before Anchor may borrow funds from MGM. The Promissory Note is to assist Anchor in providing factoring and purchase order funding facilities to some of its clients and it replaces an earlier agreement between the parties, described above.. This facility will supplement Anchor's $7 Million (which is expandable to $9 Million) credit line with a senior lender. The MGM Promissory Note is a demand note payable together with interest at the rate of 11% per annum.  If mutually agreed upon in writing by Anchor and MGM, and Anchor's purchase order fundings exceed $1 Million, then interest may accrue on the portion of the unpaid balance of this Note that is funding purchase order advances that are in excess of $1 Million at a rate equal to twenty percent (20.0%) per annum. Anchor owed $240,000 and $290,000 to MGM as of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. Anchor paid $2,240 and $1,926 of interest to MGM for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.


8. EMPLOYMENT AND STOCK OPTION AGREEMENTS:

On January 31, 2007, the Board adopted our 2007 Omnibus Equity Compensation Plan (the “Plan”), with 2,100,000 common shares authorized for issuance under the Plan.  In October 2009 the Company's stockholders approved an increase in the number of shares covered by the Plan to 4,200,000 shares.

At closing of the exchange transaction described above, M. Rubin and Brad Bernstein (“B. Bernstein”), the President of the Company, entered into employment contracts and stock option agreements.  Additionally, at closing two non-employee directors entered into stock option agreements.

We are not a party to any pending material legal proceedings except as described below. To our knowledge, no governmental authority is contemplating commencing a legal proceeding in which we would be named as a party.

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 (hereinafter referred to as a "Sherburne Account" client). Anchor’s interest in this loss is 80% or approximately $520,000 and was included in discontinued operations for the year ended December 31, 2010. 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. As of May12, 2011, the Company has recouped a total of $177,000 of the $650,000 of credit losses. Anchor is currently pursuing all collection remedies and on October 22, 2010 filed a complaint in the Superior Court of Stamford/Norwalk, Connecticut against the Administrators of the Estate of David Harvey (“Harvey”). Harvey was the owner of Sherburne and the Company is pursuing its rights under the personal guarantee that Harvey provided.  The Complaint is demanding principal of approximately $485,000 plus interest and damages.
  
14. ACQUSITION AND DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS:

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 operated 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 were 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 recorded $480,000 of Goodwill and Intangibles and a corresponding liability in connection with contingent payments due to the Sellers.

On October 6, 2010, Anchor Funding Services, Inc. entered into a Rescission Agreement with the Minority Members, namely, John A. McNiff, III and Michael P. Hilton (collectively the "Buyers") of Brookridge Funding Services, LLC ("Brookridge"). Our Brookridge operations have been reclassified as discontinued operations in Consolidated Financial Statements for three months ended March 31, 2010. The following is a summary of the operating results of our discontinued operations:

Under the terms of the Agreement, the Buyers of Brookridge purchased Anchor's interest in Brookridge at book value of approximately $783,000.
 
At closing, the Company delivered an Assignment of its Membership Interests of Brookridge to the Buyers. The Company executed a Confidentiality Agreement agreeing to keep confidential and not to use certain information concerning Brookridge. The Buyers executed the Confidentiality Agreement agreeing to keep confidential certain information concerning the Company and the parties executed a Mutual Release Agreement. The Termination Agreement provides that the Company during a Restricted Period of two years may not directly or indirectly call upon, contact, solicit, divulge, encourage or appropriate or attempt to call upon, contact, solicit, diverge, encourage or approach any customer or interfere with the business relationship between customer and Brookridge. The Company is not prohibited from competing with Brookridge or engaging in the business conducted by Brookridge.
 
Separately from the Rescission Agreement, Brookridge and MGM Funding LLC, a company controlled by our Chief Executive Officer and a director, Morry F. Rubin, by our director, George Rubin, and by a principal stockholder of the Company, agreed to terminate their Credit Agreement. At closing, no monies were owed by Brookridge to MGM.
 
 Effective as of immediately prior to the Closing and in consideration for the sale of the Purchased Interest, Buyers and Brookridge agree to assign their rights and interest in the following assets to the Company:
 
(a)  
Brookridge’s current website (not including any rights or interest with respect to the Brookridge name, web address or domain name); and (b) the Sherburne Account
 
The Agreement provides that the Company shall control collection and recovery efforts under the Sherburne Account and shall keep Buyers reasonably informed concerning substantive developments pertaining thereto. The Buyers and the Company in connection with such collection and recovery efforts shall share all out-of-pocket costs and expenses, as well as all collections, in the proportion of eighty percent (80%) by the Company and ten percent (10%) by each Buyer.  The Company shall pay to Buyers their share of any collections promptly after receipt of same and shall, from time to time, provide each Buyer with copies of any and all invoices related to the shared costs and expenses, proof of payment therefor and invoice for such expenses as they are incurred, which such invoices shall be payable by each Buyer within twenty (20) days after delivery.  In the event Buyers shall fail to make any payment due in accordance with the foregoing within ten (10) days after receiving notice concerning a failure to pay any such invoice, they shall forfeit any and all rights to share in collections.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

You should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations together with our consolidated financial statements and the related notes appearing at the end of our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010. Some of the information contained in this discussion and analysis or set forth elsewhere in this form 10-Q, including information with respect to our plans and strategy for our business and related financing, includes forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. You should review the “Risk Factors” section of our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010 for a discussion of important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the results described in or implied by the forward-looking statements contained in the following discussion and analysis.
 
Executive Overview

Our business objective is to create a well-recognized, national financial services firm for small businesses providing accounts receivable funding (factoring), outsourcing of accounts receivable management including collections and the risk of customer default and other specialty finance products including, but not limited to purchase order funding and government contract funding. For certain service businesses, Anchor also provides back office support including payroll, payroll tax compliance and invoice processing services. We provide our services to clients nationwide and may expand our services internationally in the future. We plan to achieve our growth objectives as described below through a combination of strategic and add-on acquisitions of other factoring and related specialty finance firms that serve small businesses in the United States and Canada and internal growth through mass media marketing initiatives. Our principal operations for Anchor are located in Charlotte, North Carolina. 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 well 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. and, its wholly owned subsidiary, Anchor Funding Services, LLC (continuing operations). Anchor’s former 80% interest in Brookridge Funding Services, LLC is reflected in the consolidated statements of operations and the consolidated statements of cash flows as discontinued operations for the three months ended March 31, 2010.
 
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.
   
 
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 ofcustomer.  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 up to 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 $80,500 of their March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010 retained interest in purchased accounts receivable to be uncollectible.

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 March 31, 2011, accounts receivable purchased over 90 days old and still accruing fees totaled approximately $159,000. None of this amount was related to a certain client that seasonally receives payments from its customers from October through January each year.

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.

Advertising Costs – The Company charges advertising costs to expense as incurred.  Total advertising costs were approximately $58,000 and $67,000 for the quarters ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, 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 March 31, 2011 and 2010, 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 quarter ending March 31, 2010 there was a 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 8 for the impact on the operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010.

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.
 
 
 
 
 
6

 

 
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 three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, 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.

Results of Operations

Three Months Ended March 31, 2011 vs. Three Months Ended March 31, 2010

Finance revenues from continuing operations increased 29.5% for the three months ended March 31, 2011 to $587,292 compared to $453,352 for the comparable period of the prior year.   The change in revenue was primarily due to an increase in business from existing clients and new clients. 
 
 
The Company had interest expense from continuing operations of $150,834 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to interest expense of $125,028 for the three months ended March 31, 2010. This change is primarily the result of the Company’s using its cash and borrowing more on its line of credit to fund its purchasing of clients’ accounts receivable.

Operating expenses from continuing operations for the three months ended March 31, 2011 were $415,453 compared to $443,694 for the three months ended March 31, 2010, a 6.4% decrease.  This decrease is attributable to a decrease in various expenses for the quarter ending March 31, 2011.

The combination of reduced operating expenses and increased finance revenues resulted in net income from continuing operations for the three months ended March 31, 2011 of $21,037 compared to a net loss of $(114,072) for the three months ended March 31, 2010.

Capital Resources

We have the availability of a $7 million (expandable to $9 million) senior accounts receivable facility 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. The agreement’s anniversary date is November 30, 2010 amd automatically renews each year for an additional year provided that the Company has not provided 60 days notice to the financial institution in advance of the anniversary date. The Company did not provide notice and the agreement will expire November 30, 2011.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.  The Credit Agreement contains standard representations, warranties and events of default for facilities of this type.  Occurrences of an event of default under our credit facility 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 was subordinate to Anchor’s accounts receivable credit facility. The Promissory Note was 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 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 were payable on demand and accrued interest at 20% per annum. This note was subsequently replaced by the Promissory Note described below.

On April 26, 2011, the Board of Directors approved and Anchor Funding Services, Inc. ("Anchor") entered into a Promissory Note for up to $2 million from MGM Funding, LLC. The money to be borrowed under the note is subordinate to Anchor’s accounts receivable credit facility with a senior lender, which requires funds employed to be no less than $5,000,000 before Anchor may borrow funds from MGM. The Promissory Note is to assist Anchor in providing factoring and purchase order funding facilities to some of its clients and it replaces an earlier agreement between the parties, described above.. This facility will supplement Anchor's $7 Million (which is expandable to $9 Million) credit line with a senior lender. The MGM Promissory Note is a demand note payable together with interest at the rate of 11% per annum.  If mutually agreed upon in writing by Anchor and MGM, and Anchor's purchase order fundings exceed $1 Million, then interest may accrue on the portion of the unpaid balance of this Note that is funding purchase order advances that are in excess of $1 Million at a rate equal to twenty percent (20.0%) per annum. At March 31, 2011, Anchor owed $240,000 to MGM and $290,000 to MGM as of December 31, 2010. Anchor paid $2,240 of interest to MGM for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and $1,926 of interest to MGM for the three months ended March 31, 2010.
 
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 objectives, 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.

There were no changes in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting during the most recently completed fiscal quarter that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
 
ITEM 1.
LEGAL PROCEEDINGS:
 
We are not a party to any pending material legal proceedings except as described below. To our knowledge, no governmental authority is contemplating commencing a legal proceeding in which we would be named as a party.

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 (hereinafter referred to as a "Sherburne Account" client). Anchor’s interest in this loss is 80% or approximately $520,000 and is included in discontinued operations. 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. As of May 12, 2011, the Company has recouped a total of $177,000 of the $650,000 of credit losses. Anchor is currently pursuing all collection remedies and on October 22, 2010 filed a complaint in the Superior Court of Stamford/Norwalk, Connecticut against the Administrators of the Estate of David Harvey (“Harvey”). Harvey was the owner of Sherburne and the Company is pursuing its rights under the personal guarantee that Harvey provided.  The Complaint is demanding principal of approximately $485,000 plus interest and damages.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE – May 16, 2011

Anchor Funding Services, Inc. reports its third consecutive profitable quarter from continuing operations as a result of a 29.5% increase in revenues

Boca Raton, Fl. (PR Newswire) May 16, 2011– Anchor Funding Services, Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board Symbol “AFNG.OB”) announced today its results of operations for the quarter ended March 31, 2011. The company reported first quarter 2011 finance revenues of $587,292 as compared to $453,352 for the comparable period of the prior year. The company had net income of $17,037 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 as compared to a net loss of $(91,611) for the comparable period of the prior year.  The increase in finance revenues is attributable to the company’s investments in its sales initiatives and growth among certain Anchor portfolio clients.

Anchor continues to experience demand for its financing product services. As a result, Anchor has enjoyed continued growth in its accounts receivable portfolio for the current quarter ended March 31, 2011 having purchased approximately $20,574,194 of invoices during this period compared to approximately $17,288,547 for the comparable period of the prior year.

As previously reported, Anchor continues to benefit from tight credit conditions impacting small business lending. Banks face continued pressure to exit troubled loans and rebuild their balance sheets.   As a result, meeting stringent lending criteria remains difficult for small businesses seeking working capital.  Through our sales and marketing efforts, we are implementing various ways to obtain business opportunities from bank rejections.  Anchor is often able to provide working capital to small businesses when banks cannot.

Morry F. Rubin, CEO, stated "We are excited about our third consecutive quarter of profitable results from continuing operations. Since having completed our private placement of convertible preferred securities in April 2007, we have organically grown the portfolio from less than a dozen clients in a few states to servicing more than 120 companies in more than 30 states so far in 2011. We are focused on adding additional credit worthy clients to our national portfolio and  seeking acquisition opportunities while remaining vigilant in securing opportunities to reduce our internal cost of funds.
 
We are excited about our future expansion opportunities and will continue to communicate important developments as they occur.

About Anchor

Anchor provides innovative accounts receivable funding, purchase order financing, inventory funding and credit management services to small and mid-size U.S. businesses. Our funding program which is based upon creditworthiness of accounts receivable, provides rapid and flexible financing to support small businesses’ daily working capital needs.
