  –  Closing of exchange and restructuring of senior secured notes in December 2009 leading to a non-cash loss on extinguishment of debt of ($13,071,000);

  –  Revenues to $4,000,000 during the third quarter of fiscal 2010 in comparison to $5,030,000 during the second quarter of fiscal 2010;

  –  Impairment of goodwill of ($6,348,000) associated with the Career Networks operating segment (6FigureJobs.com and Allen And Associates);

“The Company’s Third Quarter results were reflective of corporate customers hesitating to spend on new capital project while Healthcare and Financial reform continue to point to a jobless recovery, tight credit availability, coupled with our own challenges with our own Note Exchange,” said President and Chief Executive Officer, Michael Mullarkey. “While our own Note Restructuring has placed new hurdles for the company to manage through, Management will not allow the Company to be deterred in its overall focus and plans.”

As mentioned previously, the Company has implemented a new, more targeted approach during the third quarter of fiscal 2010 to grow revenues. Our initiatives have centered on:

  –   further development of our technology to meet customer needs;

  –   focus on existing customer relationships to ensure renewals and identification of potential ‘up sell’ opportunities; and,

  –   targeting Fortune 2000 companies that are currently, or in the near future, implementing a talent management software initiative.

Over the past couple of months, we have seen increased pipeline activity, which we are confident will result in improved financial performance. Furthermore, we will continue to focus on the alignment of our financial position with our operational requirements through the management of our financial resources and seeking funding alternatives to improve our capital structure.”
