NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

(1) BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial information of SecureAlert, Inc. and subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company” or “SecureAlert”) has been prepared in accordance with the Instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Certain information and disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. In the opinion of management, the accompanying interim consolidated financial information contains all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position as of December 31, 2013, and results of its operations for the three months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the annual consolidated financial statements and notes thereto that are included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2013. The results of operations for the three months ended December 31, 2013 may not be indicative of the results for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2014.

(2) PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of SecureAlert and its subsidiaries. All significant inter-company transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

(3) RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) or other standard setting bodies, which are adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date. Unless otherwise discussed, the Company believes that the impact of recently issued standards that are not yet effective will not have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations upon adoption.

(4) IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS

The Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the book value of an asset may not be recoverable and in the case of intangibles, at least annually. The Company evaluates whether events and circumstances have occurred which indicate possible impairment as of each balance sheet date. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its fair value, an impairment charge is recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the estimated fair value of the asset. Impairment of long-lived assets is assessed at the lowest levels for which there is an identifiable fair value that is independent of other groups of assets. During the three months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company had no impairments.

(5) GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION

During the three months ended December 31, 2013, the Company recognized revenues from international sources from its products and monitoring services. Revenues are attributed to the geographic areas based on the location of the customers purchasing and leasing the products and services. The revenues recognized by geographic area for the three months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, are as follows:

	December 31, 2013		December 31, 2012
United States of America	$	1,884,164	$	1,768,366
Latin American Countries		-		3,018,477
Caribbean Countries and Commonwealths		756,678		786,530
Other Foreign Countries		18,452		14,699
Total	$	2,659,294	$	5,588,072

The long-lived assets, net of accumulated depreciation, used in the generation of revenues by geographic area as of December 31, 2013 and September 30, 2013, were as follows:

	Net Property and Equipment				Net Monitoring Equipment
	December 31, 2013		September 30, 2013		December 31, 2013		September 30, 2013
United States of America	$	306,579	$	318,201	$	1,437,866	$	878,823

Total	$	333,108	$	318,201	$	1,600,180	$	1,236,696

(6) NET LOSS PER COMMON SHARE

Basic net loss per common share ("Basic EPS") is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.

Diluted net loss per common share ("Diluted EPS") is computed by dividing net loss attributable to common shareholders by the sum of the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding and the weighted-average dilutive common share equivalents outstanding. The computation of Diluted EPS does not assume exercise or conversion of securities that would have an anti-dilutive effect.

Common share equivalents consist of shares issuable upon the exercise of common stock options and warrants, and shares issuable upon conversion of preferred stock. As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, there were 466,094 and 2,547,492 outstanding common share equivalents, respectively, that were not included in the computation of Diluted EPS as their effect would be anti-dilutive. No reconciliation for discontinued operations was provided since the impact was immaterial. The common stock equivalents outstanding as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, consisted of the following:

	December 31, 2013		December 31, 2012
Conversion of debt and accrued interest		-		586,070
Conversion of Series D Preferred stock		24,503		1,462,890
Exercise of outstanding common stock options and warrants		399,591		336,532
Exercise and conversion of outstanding Series D Preferred stock warrants		42,000		162,000
Total common stock equivalents		466,094		2,547,492

(7) PREPAID AND OTHER EXPENSES

The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheets for prepaid and other expenses approximate their fair market value based on the short-term maturity of these instruments. As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, the outstanding balance of prepaid and other expenses was $2,230,328 and $1,783,805, respectively. Of the $2,230,328, was a bond posted for an international customer totaling $1,488,778 which the Company believes will be returned to the Company by March 31, 2014.

(8) INVENTORY

Inventory is valued at the lower of the cost or market. Cost is determined using the first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) method. Market is determined based on the estimated net realizable value, which generally is the item selling price. Inventory is periodically reviewed in order to identify obsolete or damaged items or impaired values.

Inventory consists of raw materials that are used in the manufacturing of TrackerPAL® and ReliAlert™ devices. Completed TrackerPAL® and ReliAlert™ devices are reflected in Monitoring Equipment. As of December 31, 2013 and September 30, 2013, respectively, inventory consisted of the following:

	December 31,			September 30,
	2013			2013
Raw materials	$	892,655		$	615,144
Reserve for damaged or obsolete inventory		(252,114	)		(148,043	)

Depreciation expense for the three months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, was $47,175 and $67,156, respectively. Property and equipment to be disposed of is reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value, less the estimated costs to sell and any gains or losses are included in the results of operations. During the three months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company disposed of property and equipment with a net book value of $0 and $1,365, respectively.

(10) MONITORING EQUIPMENT

Less: accumulated depreciation		(1,238,912	)		(1,183,346	)
Monitoring equipment, net of accumulated depreciation	$	1,600,180		$	1,236,696

All Options and Warrants

The following are the weighted-average assumptions used for options granted during the three months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 using the Black-Scholes model, respectively:

	Three Months Ended December 31,
	2013			2012
Expected cash dividend yield		-			-
Expected stock price volatility		103	%		-
Risk-free interest rate		0.10	%		-
Expected life of options/warrants	1 Year				-

The fair value of each stock option and warrant grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The expected life of stock options and warrants represents the period of time that the stock options or warrants are expected to be outstanding based on the simplified method allowed under GAAP. The expected volatility is based on the historical price volatility of the Company’s common stock. The risk-free interest rate represents the U.S. Treasury bill rate for the expected life of the related stock options and warrants. The dividend yield represents the Company’s anticipated cash dividends over the expected life of the stock option and warrants.

A summary of stock option and warrant activity for the three months ended December 31, 2013 is presented below:

	Shares Under Option/ Warrant			Weighted Average Exercise Price		Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Life	Aggregate Intrinsic Value
Outstanding as of September 30, 2013		427,965		$	16.12

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Forward-looking Statements

This Report contains information that constitutes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Exchange Act”). Generally, the statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that are not purely historical can be considered to be “forward-looking statements.” These statements represent our expectations, hopes, beliefs, anticipations, commitments, intentions, and strategies regarding the future. They may be identified by the use of words or phrases such as “believes,” “expects,” “intends,” “anticipates,” “should,” “plans,” “estimates,” “projects,” “potential,” and “will,” among others. Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements contained in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations regarding our financial performance, revenue, and expense levels in the future and the sufficiency of our existing assets to fund future operations and capital spending needs. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. In addition, forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from our historical experience and our present expectations or projections. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, those described in “Risk Factors” in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, and those described from time to time in our reports filed with the SEC.

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto that are contained in this Report, as well as Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2013, and Current Reports on Form 8-K that have been filed with the SEC through the date of this Report. Except as otherwise indicated, as used in this Report, the terms “the Company,” “SecureAlert,” “we,” “our,” “us,” refer to SecureAlert, Inc., a Utah corporation.

General

We market and deploy offender management programs, combining patented global positioning satellite (“GPS”) tracking technologies, fulltime 24/7/365 intervention-based monitoring capabilities and case management services. Our vision is to be the global market leader for delivering the most reliable offender management solutions, which leverage superior intervention capabilities and integrated communication technologies. We believe that we currently deliver the only offender management technology, which effectively integrates GPS, radio frequency (“RF”) and an interactive three-way voice communication system into a single piece device, deployable worldwide. Through our patented electronic monitoring technologies and services, we empower law enforcement, corrections and rehabilitation professionals with offender, defendant, probationer and parolee programs, which grant convicted criminals and pre-trial suspects an accountable opportunity to be “free from prison”. This provides for greater public safety at a lower cost compared to incarceration or traditional resource-intensive alternatives.

Strategy

Our global growth strategy is to continue to expand offerings which empower professionals in security, law enforcement, corrections and rehabilitation organization worldwide with single-sourced offender management solutions that integrate reliable intervention technologies to support re-socialization and monitoring initiatives. We will accomplish this through an ever increasing portfolio of proprietary and non-proprietary real-time monitoring and intervention products and services. These may include GPS, RF, drug and alcohol testing for not only defendants and offenders, but other individuals and assets in the corrections, law enforcement and rehabilitation arena.

In addition, our product and service offerings will expand upon our exception-based reporting, analytical capabilities and behavioral-monitoring knowledge. These customizable solutions will be available through Web portals and mobile device platforms, in addition to traditional desktops, to leverage our real-time monitoring data, best-practice monitoring, and interaction protocols and analytics capabilities. Customer insights will be further increased by aggregating real-time data from additional monitoring device types and technologies, regardless of manufacturer, as well as other critical data sources.

In summary, we are committed to delivering a superior proprietary and non-proprietary portfolio of reliable, intervention monitoring products and services for the global offender management marketplace. We are currently targeting pilot and operational deployments worldwide. We will continue to work with agencies to increase public safety and officer productivity, mitigate budgetary constraints through cost-effective monitoring alternatives, increase early-release compliance and improve monitoring program success rates, all while offering defendants and offenders opportunities for accountable freedom instead of incarceration.

Critical Accounting Policies

In Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2013 included in our Form 10-K, we discuss those accounting policies that are considered to be significant in determining our results of operations and financial position.

The preparation of financial statements requires management to make significant estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. By their nature, these judgments are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty. We assess the reasonableness of our estimates, including those related to bad debts, inventories, intangible assets, warranty obligations, product liability, revenue, and income taxes. We base our estimates on historical experience as well as available current information on a regular basis. Management uses this information to form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Results of Operations

Continuing Operations - Three months ended December 31, 2013, compared to three months ended December 31, 2012

Revenues

For the three months ended December 31, 2013, we had revenues from operations of $2,659,294, compared to $5,588,072 for the three months ended December 31, 2012, a decrease of $2,928,778 (52%). Of these revenues, $2,593,683 and $4,375,575 were from monitoring and other related services for the three months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, a decrease of $1,781,892 (41%). For the three months ended December 31, 2013, international revenue was $775,130, compared to $3,819,706 for the three months ended December 31, 2012, a decrease of $3,044,576 (80%); this decrease resulted from the completion of a contract with an international contract. Product revenues decreased from $1,212,497 for the three months ended December 31, 2012, compared to $65,611 for the three months ended December 31, 2013, a decrease of $1,146,886 (95%). Product revenues decreased primarily from the completion of an international contract.

Cost of Revenues

During the three months ended December 31, 2013, cost of revenues totaled $1,398,829, compared to cost of revenues during the three months ended December 31, 2012 of $2,978,518, a decrease of $1,579,689. The decrease in cost of revenues in 2013 resulted primarily from a decrease of $1,029,684 in royalties and the cost of equipment of $468,362 related to international sales.

Depreciation for the three months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 totaled $190,992 and $322,580, respectively. Depreciation costs are based on a three-year useful life for TrackerPAL® and ReliAlert™ devices. Devices that are leased or retained by us for future deployment or sale are depreciated over three years. We believe this three-year life is appropriate due to rapid changes in electronic monitoring technology and the corresponding potential for obsolescence. Management periodically assesses the useful life of the devices for appropriateness.

We expect the cost of revenues as a percentage of revenues to decrease in the foreseeable future due to (a) economies of scale realized through projected increases in revenues, and (b) further development of our proprietary software, enabling each operator to monitor more devices resulting in lower monitoring center costs.

Gross Profit and Margin

During the three months ended December 31, 2013, gross profit totaled $1,260,465, or 47 percent of net revenues, compared to $2,609,554, or 47 percent of net revenues during the three months ended December 31, 2012. Despite the completion of an international contract yielding higher margins, gross margin remained stable due to the repurchase of a royalty agreement entered into during fiscal year 2013.

Research and Development Expenses

During the three months ended December 31, 2013, we incurred research and development expenses of $319,570 compared to research and development expenses for the three months ended December 31, 2012 totaling $201,594. These research and development costs were incurred to improve efficiency in the software, firmware and hardware of our products and services including the development of our upcoming 3G electronic monitoring device.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

During the three months ended December 31, 2013, our selling, general and administrative expenses totaled $2,171,447, compared to $2,038,022 for the three months ended December 31, 2012. The increase of $133,425 is primarily the result of an increase in travel of ($153,489), amortization of ($157,696), consulting of ($115,627), legal fees of ($76,764), offset by a reduction in payroll ($408,007). The increase in selling, general, and administrative expense also resulted from preliminary work and preparation associated with a large international contract.

Other Income and Expense

For the three months ended December 31, 2013, interest expense was $43,918, compared to $843,224 for the three months ended December 31, 2012. The decrease in interest expense resulted primarily from a reduction in debt and the acceleration of a beneficial conversion feature from the conversion of debt into common stock.

Net Loss

We had a net loss from continuing operations for the three months ended December 31, 2013 totaling $1,270,193, compared to a net loss of $562,043 for the three months ended December 31, 2012, an increase of $708,150. This increase primarily resulted from the reduction of gross profit generated from monitoring services in connection with an international customer. Additionally, the increase in net loss resulted from preliminary work and preparation in connection with a large international contract and the development of our 3G electronic monitoring device.

Discontinued Operations - Three months ended December 31, 2013, compared to three months ended December 31, 2012

SecureAlert, Inc. entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement to sell to a former principal all of the issued and outstanding stock of Court Programs Inc. (“Court Programs”), effective January 1, 2013. Court Programs was a component of the Company’s consolidated entity, and as such requires discontinued operations reporting treatment.

A summary of the operating results of discontinued operations for the three months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 is as follows:

	December 31,		December 31,

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We were unable to finance our business solely from cash flows from operating activities. During the three months ended December 31, 2013, we supplemented cash flows to finance our business from the issuance of debt securities, providing net cash proceeds from financing activities of $2,623,664.

As of December 31, 2013, we had unrestricted cash of $1,326,278 and a working capital surplus of $2,218,469, compared to unrestricted cash of $3,382,428 and a working capital surplus of $6,836,442 as of September 30, 2013. For the three months ended December 31, 2013, our operating activities used cash of $520,921 compared to $1,044,446 of cash provided in operating activities for the three months ended December 31, 2012.

We used cash of $4,158,893 for investing activities during the three months ended December 31, 2013, compared to $232,826 of cash used in investing activities in the three months ended December 31, 2012. Of the $4,158,893 of cash used for investing activities, $3,346,622 was cash deposited and held in escrow to secure a contract with an international customer.

Financing activities for the three months ended December 31, 2013, provided cash of $2,623,664, compared to $1,612,053 for the three months ended December 31, 2012. For the three months ended December 31, 2013, we received proceeds of $2,700,000 from the issuances of notes payable from a significant shareholder and $8,000 from the exercise of warrants. Cash decreased by $24,336 due to principal payments made on notes payable and $60,000 was paid to pay off a related-party note payable. Cash provided by financing activities was used to support operating activities.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Our business is extending to several countries outside the United States, and we intend to continue to expand our foreign operations. As a result, our revenues and results of operations are affected by fluctuations in currency exchange rates, interest rates, and other uncertainties inherent in doing business in more than one currency. In addition, our operations are exposed to risks that are associated with changes in social, political, and economic conditions in the foreign countries in which we operate, including changes in the laws and policies that govern foreign investment, as well as, to a lesser extent, changes in United States laws and regulations relating to foreign trade and investment.

Foreign Currency Risks. We had $775,130 and $3,819,706 in revenues from sources outside the United States for the three months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Although we normally transact the sale of monitoring equipment and services in U.S. Dollars, we received some payments in an equivalent value of foreign currencies which resulted in a foreign exchange loss of $7,035 and $8,204 during the three months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. We occasionally purchase goods and services in foreign currencies which did not result in any currency exchange rate losses during the three months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012. Changes in currency exchange rates affect the relative prices at which we sell our products and purchase goods and services. Given the uncertainty of exchange rate fluctuations, we cannot estimate the effect of these fluctuations on our future business, product pricing, results of operations, or financial condition.

We do not use foreign currency exchange contracts or derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes. To the extent foreign sales become a more significant part of our business in the future, we may seek to implement strategies which make use of these or other instruments in order to minimize the effects of foreign currency exchange on our business.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures to ensure that information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) rules and forms and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the members of our Executive Committee (our acting principal executive officers) and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
