ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS
CAM Commerce Solutions, Inc. (the Company) was incorporated in California in 1983, and reincorporated in Delaware in 1987. The Companys principal business is to provide total commerce solutions for small-to-medium size, traditional and Web retailers. These solutions are based on the Companys open architecture software products for managing inventory, point of sale, sales transaction processing, accounting, and payment processing. In addition to software, these solutions often include hardware, installation, training, service and credit card processing services provided by the Company. Sales, service, research, and development are located in California and Nevada, while the Companys customers are located throughout the United States.
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Presentation of Condensed Financial Statements
The accompanying financial statements of the Company as of and for the three months ended December 31, 2004 and 2003 are unaudited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of such financial statements have been included. Such adjustments consisted only of normal recurring items. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year. The condensed financial statements and notes are presented as permitted by Form 10-Q and, therefore, should be read in conjunction with the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2004.
Cash Equivalents
Cash equivalents represent highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less.
Marketable Securities
All investment securities are considered to be available-for-sale and are carried at fair value. Management determines the classification at the time of purchase and re-evaluates its appropriateness at each balance sheet date. The Companys marketable securities at December 31, 2004 and September 30, 2004 consisted of debt instruments that bear interest at various rates and mature in two years or less. The gross unrealized gains (losses) on securities available-for-sale at December 31, 2004 and September 30, 2004 were $(7) and $2, respectively. There were no realized gains (losses) for the three months ended December 31, 2004 and 2003.
Accounts Receivable and Allowance For Doubtful Accounts
The Company has accounts receivable from customers who were given extended payment terms for goods and services rendered. Extended payment terms are generally provided only to established relationship customers in good credit standing, and generally represent net 30 day terms. Payment for goods and services are typically due with an initial deposit payment upon signing the purchase agreement, with the balance due upon the delivery.
Management evaluates accounts receivable on a regular basis to charge off any accounts deemed uncollectible at the time. An allowance for doubtful accounts is maintained for estimated losses resulting from the inability of customers to make required payments.
Concentrations of Credit Risk
The Company sells its products primarily to small-to-medium size retailers. Credit is extended based on an evaluation of the customers financial condition, and collateral is generally not required. Credit losses have traditionally been minimal and such losses have been within managements expectations.

Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market determined on a first-in, first-out basis, or net realizable value. Inventories are composed of finished goods, which include electronic point of sale hardware and computer equipment used in the sale and service of the Companys products.
Comprehensive Income

Revenue Recognition Policy
The Companys revenue recognition policy is significant because revenue is a key component of results of operations. In addition, revenue recognition determines the timing of certain expenses such as commissions. Specific guidelines are followed to measure revenue, although certain judgments affect the application of our revenue policy. The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Statement of Position 97-2 (SOP 97-2), Software Revenue Recognition, as amended and interpreted by Statement of Position 98-9, Modification of SOP 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition, With Respect to Certain Transactions, and Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104 (SAB 104), Revenue Recognition. SAB 104 provides further interpretive guidance for public companies on the recognition, presentation, and disclosure of revenue in financial statements.
The Company derives revenue from the sale of computer hardware, licensing of computer software, post contract support (PCS), installation and training services, and payment processing services. System revenue from hardware sales and software licensing is recognized when a system purchase agreement has been signed, the hardware and software has been shipped, there are no uncertainties surrounding product acceptance, the pricing is fixed and determinable, and collection is considered probable. If a sales transaction contains an undelivered element, the vendor-specific objective evidence (VSOE) of fair value of the undelivered element is deferred and the revenue recognized once the element is delivered. The undelivered elements are primarily installation and training services. Revenue related to these services are deferred and recognized when the services have been provided. VSOE of fair value for installation and training services are based upon standard rates charged since those services are always sold as a separate option and priced independently. Installation and training services are separately priced, are generally available from other suppliers and not essential to the functionality of the software products. Payments for the Companys hardware and software are typically due with an initial deposit payment upon signing the system purchase agreement, with the balance due upon delivery, although established relationship customers in good credit standing receive thirty day payment terms. VSOE of fair value for PCS is the price the customer is required to pay since it is sold as a separate option and priced independently.
PCS services are billed on a monthly basis and recorded as revenue in the applicable month, or on an annual basis with the revenue being deferred and recognized ratably over the support period. If an arrangement includes multiple elements, the fees are allocated to the various elements based upon VSOE of fair value, as described above.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2004
(In thousands, except per share data)
The Company recognizes payment processing revenues in the period the service is performed. Revenues are estimated based on the accumulation of sufficient historical information required to analyze trends and formulate a reasonable estimate. The significant historical information required to formulate a reliable estimate are the total dollar volume of credit card transactions processed and the related revenue for these credit card transactions.
Segments
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 131, Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information (SFAS 131), established standards for the way that public business enterprises report selected financial information about operating segments in annual and interim financial statements and significant foreign operations. Because the Company operates in one business segment and has no significant foreign operations, no additional reporting is required under SFAS 131.
Recently Issued Accounting Announcements
On December 16, 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004), Share-Based Payment (SFAS 123R) which replaces SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, supersedes Accounting Principles Board Opinion (APB) No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees and amends SFAS No. 95, Statement of Cash Flows. Generally, the approach in SFAS 123R is similar to the approach described in SFAS 123. However, SFAS 123R requires all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the financial statements based on their fair values (i.e., pro forma disclosure is no longer an alternative to financial statement recognition). SFAS 123R is effective for the Company beginning on July 1, 2005. The Company is currently assessing the impact of SFAS 123R. As of the date of this filing, no decisions have been made as to whether the Company will apply the modified prospective or retrospective transition method of application.
Intangible Assets
The Company capitalizes costs incurred to develop new marketable software and enhance the Companys existing systems software. Costs incurred in creating the software are charged to expense when incurred as research and development until technological feasibility has been established through the development of a detailed program design. Once technological feasibility has been established, software production costs are capitalized and reported at the lower of amortized cost or net realizable value.
License agreements and capitalized software costs are amortized on the straight-line method over estimated useful lives ranging from three to five years. Amortization of capitalized software costs commences when the products are available for general release to customers.
Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications have been made to the fiscal 2004 financial statements to conform to the fiscal 2005 presentation.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of net revenue and expenses during the reporting period. The Company regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions related to revenue recognition, receivables and inventory, capitalized software, allowances for doubtful accounts, intangible asset valuations, deferred income tax asset valuation allowances, and other contingencies. The estimates and assumptions are based on historical experience and on 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 values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. To the extent

there are material differences between the Companys estimates and the actual results, the Companys future results of operations will be affected.
Shipping and Handling
Shipping and handling fees and costs are included in the statement of operations under the line items titled Net hardware, software and installation revenues and Cost of hardware, software and installation revenues.
Net Income Per Share
Basic net income per share is based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for each period presented. Diluted net income per share is based upon the weighted average number of common shares and common equivalent shares outstanding for each period presented. Common equivalent shares include stock options and warrants assuming conversion under the treasury stock method. Common equivalent shares are excluded from diluted net income per share if their effect is anti-dilutive. Options and warrants outstanding for the three months ended December 31, 2004 and 2003, which were excluded from the diluted net income per share computation because their effect is anti-dilutive, were as follows:

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT
You should read the following discussion and analysis with our Unaudited Condensed Financial Statements and related Notes thereto contained elsewhere in this report. We urge you to carefully review and consider the various disclosures made in this report and in our other reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
The section entitled Risk Factors set forth below, and similar discussions in our other SEC filings, discuss some of the important risk factors that may affect our business, results of operations and financial condition. You should carefully consider those risks, in addition to the other information in this report and in our other filings with the SEC, before deciding to purchase, hold or sell our common stock.
OVERVIEW
We offer several turn-key retailing systems that consist of software, hardware, installation, training, technical support services and web hosting services. Our systems, known as CAM32, Profit$, RetailSTAR, RetailICE and Microbiz offer the ability to obtain: (i) automated pricing of each item; (ii) billing for charge account customers; (iii) printing of a customer invoice; (iv) tracking of inventory count on an item by item basis; (v) computation of gross profit, dollars and/or percentage of each item; and (vi) tracking of sales by clerk and department by day and/or month. In addition, our systems provide full management reporting including zero sales reports, inventory ranking, overstock and understock, sales analysis, inventory valuation (last cost, average cost and retail) and other reports. The systems can also provide integrated or interfaced accounting functions including accounts receivable, accounts payable, and general ledger.
We also provide payment processing services through our X-Charge software and a third party credit card payment processor. X-Charge is a payment processing software program that is integrated with our point of sale software. X-Charge generates revenues for us based on sales transaction payment processing services provided to our customers. Typically, the payments being processed are credit card transactions.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of our financial statements and reported amounts of net revenue and expenses during the reporting period. We regularly evaluate estimates and assumptions related to revenue recognition, receivables and inventory, capitalized software, allowances for doubtful accounts, intangible asset valuations, deferred income tax asset valuation allowances, and other contingencies. The estimates and assumptions are based on historical experience and on various other factors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. To the extent there are material differences between our estimates and the actual results, our future results of operations will be affected.
We believe the following critical accounting policies require us to make significant judgments and estimates in the preparation of our financial statements:

Revenue Recognition
We derive revenue from the sale of computer hardware, licensing of computer software, post contract customer support, installation and training services, and payment processing services. System revenue from hardware sales and software licensing is recognized when a system purchase agreement has been signed, the hardware and software has been shipped, there are no uncertainties surrounding product acceptance, the pricing is fixed and determinable, and collection is considered probable. If a sales transaction contains an undelivered element, the vendor-specific objective evidence (VSOE) of fair value of the undelivered element is deferred and the revenue recognized once the element is delivered. The undelivered elements are primarily installation and training services. Revenue related to these services is deferred and recognized when the services have been provided. VSOE of fair value for installation and training services are based upon standard rates charged since those services are always sold as a separate option and priced independently. Installation and training services are separately priced, are generally available from other suppliers and not essential to the functionality of the software products. Payments for our hardware and software are typically due with an initial deposit payment upon signing the system purchase agreement, with the balance due upon delivery, although established relationship customers in good credit standing receive thirty day payment terms. VSOE of fair value for post-contract support (PCS) is the price the customer is required to pay since it is sold as a separate option and priced independently. PCS services are billed on a monthly basis and recorded as revenue in the applicable month, or on an annual basis with the revenue being deferred and recognized ratably over the support period. If an arrangement includes multiple elements, the fees are allocated to the various elements based upon VSOE of fair value, as described above.
We recognize payment processing revenues in the period the service is performed. Revenues are estimated based on the accumulation of sufficient historical information required to analyze trends and formulate a reasonable estimate. The significant historical information required to formulate a reliable estimate are the total dollar volume of credit card transactions processed and the related revenue for these credit card transactions.
Receivables and Inventory
We have accounts receivable from customers who were given extended payment terms for goods and services rendered. Extended payment terms are generally provided only to established relationship customers in good credit standing, and generally represent net 30 day terms. Payment for goods and services are typically due with an initial deposit payment upon signing the purchase agreement, with the balance due upon delivery.
An allowance for doubtful accounts is maintained for estimated losses resulting from the inability of customers to make required payments. If the financial condition of our customers was to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, additional allowances could be required. Actual losses have traditionally been minimal and within our expectations.
We write down inventory for estimated obsolescence equal to the difference between the cost of inventory and the estimated realizable value based upon assumptions about future demand and market conditions. If actual market conditions are less favorable than those projected by us, additional inventory write-downs could be required. Historically inventory write-downs have been minimal and within our expectations.

Capitalized Software
We capitalize costs incurred to develop new marketable software and enhance our existing systems software. Costs incurred in creating the software are expensed when incurred as research and development expense until technological feasibility has been established through the development of a detailed program design. Once technological feasibility has been established, software development costs are capitalized and reported at the lower of amortized cost or net realizable value.
Impairment of Intangible Assets
The value of our intangible assets could be impacted by future adverse changes such as (i) any future declines in our operating results, and (ii) any failure to meet our future performance projections. An annual impairment review will be performed during the fourth quarter of each fiscal year or more frequently if indicators of impairment exist. In the process of the annual impairment review, we use the income approach methodology of valuation that includes the discounted cash flow method to determine the fair value of our assets. Significant management judgment is required in the forecast of future operating results that are used in the discounted cash flow method of valuation. The estimates used are consistent with the plans and estimates that we use to manage our business. It is reasonably possible, however, that certain of our products will not gain or maintain market acceptance, which could result in estimates of anticipated future net revenue differing materially from those used to assess the recoverability of these assets. In that event, revenue and cost forecasts would not be achieved, and we could incur additional impairment charges.
Deferred Taxes
We utilize the liability method of accounting for income taxes as set forth in SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. Prior to fiscal 2004, we recorded a valuation allowance to reduce our deferred tax assets to the amount that we believed was more likely than not to be realized. During fiscal 2004, the valuation allowance was reversed based on our belief that sufficient future income from operations is expected to be able to recognize the net deferred tax assets. In assessing the need for a valuation allowance, we consider all positive and negative evidence, including projected future taxable income, and recent financial performance.

Significant Trends
System sales for the quarter ended December 31, 2004 increased slightly, while our payment processing revenues from our X-Charge business increased 104%, in comparison to the same quarter of prior year. We continued to have an increase in our X-Charge revenues as a result of continued addition of new processing accounts. Because of the higher margins on our X-Charge revenues, our pre-tax income for the three months ended December 31, 2004 increased 67% on a 16% overall revenue increase. Gross profit margin for the quarter ended December 31, 2004 increased over the same quarter of last year as a result of recurring revenues from X-Charge business.

Revenues
We derive revenues from system sales, consisting of computer hardware, licensing of computer software, installation and training, post contract customer support service, and payment processing service (X-Charge). Net revenues for the three months ended December 31, 2004 increased 16% to $6,150, consisting of a 3% increase in system revenues, a 2% increase in service revenues, and a 104% increase in payment processing revenues, compared to the three months ended December 31, 2003. System revenues for the quarter ended December 31, 2004 increased slightly over the same quarter of last year due to higher hardware sales to existing customers. Service revenues for the three months ended December 31, 2004 was relatively flat, as compared to the three months ended December 31, 2003, as a result of no significant changes in the number of new contracts sold and contract cancellations. Payment processing revenues for the three months ended December 31, 2004 increased significantly due to a higher number of X-Charge processing accounts added over the prior year, which generate recurring revenues.
Gross Margin
Gross margin for the three months ended December 31, 2004 was 62%, compared to 59% for the three months ended December 31, 2003. Gross margin on system revenues and service revenues was relatively flat at 50% and 64%, respectively, for the three months ended December 31, 2004, compared to 49% and 63% for the same quarter of last year. Gross margin for payment processing revenues was 90% for the quarter ended December 31, 2004, compared to 94% for the same quarter of prior year. Gross margin for payment processing revenues decreased as a result of higher payroll costs, related to the increase in personnel needed to support the growth in customer base processing with X-Charge.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Salaries, sales commissions, marketing expenses, and rent expenses represent the largest expenses of selling, general and administrative expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses expressed as a percentage of net revenues was 47% for the three months ended December 31, 2004, compared to 46% for the same period of fiscal 2004. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased 19% for the three months ended December 31, 2004, compared to the same period ended December 31, 2003. This increase was primarily due to the increase in sales commissions expense related to higher payment processing revenues, higher payroll costs related to an increase in administrative and sales personnel needed for X-Charge business growth, and higher expenses related to Sarbanes Oxley compliance work.
Research and Development Expenses
Research and development expenses expressed as a percentage of revenues was 6% for the three months ended December 31, 2004, compared to 7% for the three months ended December 31, 2003. Research and development expenses for the three months ended December 31, 2004 was flat, as compared to the three months ended December 31, 2003. We continue to invest in the enhancements of new features for the existing software products of Retail Star and CAM32.
Income Taxes
Provision for income taxes for the three months ended December 31, 2004 was $271, compared to $29 for the three months ended December 31, 2003. Provision for income taxes for the quarter ended December 31, 2003 was related to estimated tax expense for various states. There was no provision made for federal income taxes for the three months ended December 31, 2003 due to the utilization of net operating loss

carryforwards and the reversal of our valuation allowance on deferred taxes. In fiscal 2005, provision was made for both state and federal income taxes for the three months ended December 31, 2004. We expect to continue to incur provision for federal and state income taxes for the foreseeable future.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Our cash and cash equivalents plus marketable securities totaled $16,245 on December 31, 2004 compared to $16,591 on September 30, 2004. The decrease resulted from cash used for investing activities. We generated $324 from operations, expended $143 for fixed assets and capitalized software development, used $694 for marketable securities investment, and received $173 from the proceeds of stock options exercised during the three months ended December 31, 2004, compared to $749 generated from operations, $119 used for fixed assets and capitalized software development, and $284 received from the exercise of stock options for the three months ended December 31, 2003. Cash flow generated from operations decreased for the three months ended December 31, 2004, compared to the same period of last year, primarily due to slower turnover of accounts receivable and a higher pay out of accrued compensation and related expense. This trend of declining cash flows from operations is not expected to continue for the remainder of fiscal 2005.
At December 31, 2004 cash and cash equivalents plus marketable securities made up 81% of our total current assets. Our current ratio at December 31, 2004 was 6.8. Management believes our existing working capital, coupled with funds generated from our operations will be sufficient to fund our presently anticipated working capital requirements for the foreseeable future.
Inflation has had no significant impact on our operations.
Contracts and Commitments
During the three month period ended December 31, 2004, there were no material changes outside of our ordinary business in our long term debt, capital leases, operating leases, purchase obligations, or other long term obligations reflected on our balance sheet at December 31, 2004.

FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
All statements included or incorporated by reference in this report, other than statements of historical fact or explanatory statements, are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Examples of forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements concerning trends, projected revenue, expenses, gross profit, gross margin and income, our accounting estimates, assumptions and judgments, the impact of our adoption of new rules on accounting for goodwill and other intangible assets, and our future capital requirements. These forward-looking statements are based on our current expectation, estimates and projections about our industry, managements beliefs, and certain assumptions made by us. Forward-looking statements can often be identified by words such as anticipates, expects, intends, plans, predicts, believes, seeks, estimates, may, will, should, would, potential, continue, feels, outlook, forecast, optimistic, and other similar expressions, including variations or negatives of these words.
In addition, any statements that refer to expectations, projections or other characterizations of future events or circumstances, including any underlying assumptions, are forward-looking statements. These statements speak only as of the date of this report and are based upon the information available to us at this time. Such information is subject to change. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict. Actual results could differ materially and adversely from those expressed in any forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, some of which are set forth below. We undertake no obligation to revise or update publicly any forward-looking statement for any reason.
RISK FACTORS
The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only ones we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known or that are currently deemed immaterial may also affect our business. If any of these known or unknown risks or uncertainties actually occurs, they could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. In that event, the market price for our common stock could decline and you may lose all or part of your investment.
We face intense competition in the retail point of sale industry, which could reduce our market share.
Intuit and Microsoft both offer competing point of sale software products. These products were either acquired or licensed from our competitors. Although we have successfully competed against these products in the past, both Intuit and Microsoft have significant financial resources to market and modify their products, and, therefore, we may not be able to continue to successfully compete against them in the future.
Our stock is thinly traded. Accordingly, you may not be able to resell your shares of common stock at or above the price you paid for them.
Our common stock has historically maintained a low trading volume of shares per day. This trend is likely to continue.
The population of our target customers is declining.
Our target customers are small-to-medium size retailers. These target customers are under intense competitive pressure from large retail chains such as Wal-Mart and others. These large retailers are gaining market share at the expense of our target customers and each other. This intense competition causes some small retailers to go out of business, and others to consolidate with other small regional retail chains. This results in a shrinking population of our target customers. This also causes our target customers to be more cautious about capital spending for their retail business. These factors can cause substantial fluctuations in

our revenues and in our results of operations. This current trend in the retail industry may exist indefinitely and could seriously impact our revenue and harm our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Other factors which may affect quarterly results include:
- | the availability and pricing of competing products and the resulting effects on sales; | |
- | the effectiveness of expense and cost control efforts; | |
- | the ability to develop and deliver software products to market in a timely manner; | |
- | the rate at which present and future customers adopt our new products and services in our target markets; | |
- | the effects of new and emerging technologies; | |
- | the ability to retain and hire key executives, management, technical personnel and other employees that are needed to implement business and product plans; | |
- | the level of orders received that can be shipped in a fiscal quarter. |
Due to all of the foregoing factors, and the other risks discussed in this report and our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including our reports on Forms 10-K and 8-K, you should not rely on quarter to quarter comparisons of our operating results as an indication of future performance.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCOLSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Market risk refers to the risk that a change in the level of one or more market factors such as interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, or equity prices will result in losses for a certain financial instrument or group of instruments. We are principally exposed to interest rate and credit risks. We are not exposed to foreign currency exchange rate risk. We do not use derivative instruments.
Interest Rate Risk
We maintain a portfolio of cash equivalents with original maturities of three months or less. Our investment securities portfolio consists solely of debt instruments all with current maturities of two years or less. Both portfolios are for investment, not trading purposes. Fluctuations in interest rates will have an impact on the market value of these investments. This risk is managed by investing in short term instruments of high quality credit issuers and limiting the amount of investment in any one issuer. We have no current or long term debt or outstanding lines of credit.
Credit Risk
We are currently exposed to credit risk on credit extended to customers which are mostly small-to-medium-size retailers. We actively monitor this risk through a variety of control procedures involving senior management. Historically, credit losses have been small and within our expectations.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
As of the end of the period covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commissions rules and forms. There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our most recently completed fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
