Cautionary Statement Concerning Forward-Looking Statements

Our representatives and we may from time to time make written or oral statements that are "forward-looking," including statements contained in this Annual Report on Form 10-K and other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, reports to our stockholders and news releases. All statements that express expectations, estimates, forecasts or projections are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Act. In addition, other written or oral statements which constitute forward-looking statements may be made by us or on our behalf. Words such as "expects," "anticipates," "intends," "plans," "believes," "seeks," "estimates," "projects," "forecasts," "may," "should," variations of such words and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions which are difficult to predict. These risks may relate to, without limitation:

 
·
if we are not able to continue to successfully recruit and retain our students, we will not be able to sustain our revenue growth rate;
 
·
we are subject to risks relating to tuition pricing, which could have a material adverse affect on our financial results;
 
·
our financial performance depends, in part, on our ability to keep pace with changing market needs and technology; if we fail to keep pace or fail in implementing or adapting to new technologies, our business may be adversely affected;
 
·
we are subject to risks relating to our information technology, system applications and security systems, which could have a material adverse affect on our financial results;
 
·
future acquisitions may have an adverse effect on our ability to manage our business;
 
·
if regulators do not approve our domestic acquisitions, the acquired schools’ state licenses, accreditation, and ability to participate in Title IV programs (if applicable) may be impaired;
 
·
if regulators do not approve or delay their approval of transactions involving a change of control of our company, our state licenses and accreditation may be impaired;
 
·
if any regulatory audit, investigation or other proceeding finds us not in compliance with the numerous laws and regulations applicable to the postsecondary education industry, we may not be able to successfully challenge such finding and our business could suffer;
 
·
if we fail to maintain any of our state authorizations, we would lose our ability to operate in that state;
 
·
government regulations relating to the Internet could increase our cost of doing business, affect our ability to grow or otherwise have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows;
 
·
our success depends on attracting and retaining qualified personnel;
 
·
we may not be able to adequately protect our intellectual property, and we may be exposed to infringement claims by third parties;
 
·
we may be subject to infringement and misappropriation claims in the future, which may cause us to incur significant expenses, pay substantial damages and be prevented from providing our services;
 
·
our limited operating history and the unproven long-term potential of our business model make evaluating our business and prospects difficult;
 
·
we may need additional capital and may not be able to obtain such capital on acceptable terms;
 
·
our business may be adversely affected by a further economic slowdown in the U.S. or abroad or by an economic recovery in the U.S.;
 
·
we may not be able to sustain our recent growth rate or profitability, and we may not be able to manage future growth effectively;
 
·
insiders have substantial control over us, and they could delay or prevent a change in our corporate control even if our other stockholders wanted it to occur;
 
·
there may not be sufficient liquidity in the market for our securities in order for investors to sell their securities;
 
·
the market price of our common stock may be volatile;
 
·
the outstanding convertible securities may adversely affect us in the future and cause dilution to existing shareholders;
 
·
our common stock may be considered a “penny stock” and may be difficult to sell; and
 
·
we have not paid dividends in the past and do not expect to pay dividends in the future, and any return on investment may be limited to the value of our stock.

Therefore, actual outcomes and results may differ materially from what is expressed or forecasted in or suggested by such forward-looking statements. We undertake no obligation to publicly revise these forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances that arise after the date hereof. Readers should carefully review the factors described herein and in other documents we file from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, Annual Reports on Form 10-K, and any Current Reports on Form 8-K filed by us.

Item 1.  Business.

In this report, the “Company,” "we", "us" and "our", refer to Florham Consulting Corp., Educational Investors, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“EII”), Valley Anesthesia, Inc., a Delaware corporation and Valley Anesthesia Educational Programs, Inc., an Iowa corporation (collectively, “Valley”), and Training Direct, LLC, a Connecticut limited liability company (“Training Direct”, and together with EII and Valley, the “EII Group”), unless the context otherwise requires.

Introduction

Prior to the reverse merger, we were a publicly reporting Delaware corporation offering Internet professional services, including providing our clients with an integrated set of strategic creative and technology services that enable such clients to effect and maximize their Internet business.  These services helped our clients create and enhance relationships with their customers, staff, business partners and suppliers.

           Prior to the reverse merger, our strategic services included advising clients on developing business models for their Internet activities, identifying opportunities to improve operational efficiencies through online opportunities and planning for the operations and organization necessary to support an online business. Our creative services included developing graphic designs and Web sites for our clients. Our technology services included recommending and installing appropriate hardware and software networks to enable online sales, support and communication. We also managed the hosting of clients' websites in certain cases.

As a result of the reverse merger, we will carry out the business and operations of the EII Group.

EII

EII was incorporated in the State of Delaware on July 20, 2009 for the purpose of acquiring vocational, training and technical schools, with an initial emphasis on the health care and medical industries. EII’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Valley Anesthesia, Inc., was incorporated on July 15, 2009 in the State of Delaware and has its corporate offices located in New York, New York. Effective August 20, 2009, Valley Anesthesia, Inc. purchased certain assets and assumed certain liabilities and operations of Valley Anesthesia Educational Programs, Inc. for an aggregate purchase price of $3,838,215, plus certain contingent payments which are subject to the achievement of predetermined operating milestones. EII’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Training Direct, LLC, was organized as a limited liability company in the State of Connecticut on January 7, 2004.

Valley

Through Valley, EII provides comprehensive review and update courses and study materials that aid Student Registered Nurse Anesthetists (“SRNA”) and Graduate Registered Nurse Anesthetists (“GRNA”) in preparation for the National Certifying Exam (“NCE”) throughout the continental United States.

Valley’s principal service is a three-day comprehensive review and update course designed to prepare SRNAs for the NCE. Valley also offers a 600-page basic manual. Additionally, Valley offers MemoryMasterTM, which is a collection of approximately 4,000 questions and answers designed to further assist its students in preparation for the NCE. Valley presented 10 courses in 2007, 11 courses in 2008 and 12 courses in 2009. In addition, Valley has 13 courses scheduled for 2010.

Valley’s revenue is currently generated from three sources: (i) seminars, (ii) manuals, and (iii) MemoryMasterTM.  In addition, Valley anticipates that there will be a fourth revenue source beginning in 2010, which is from on-line practice examinations that management expects to launch in the second quarter of 2010.

Training Direct

Through its Training Direct subsidiary, EII provides “distance learning” and “residential training” educational programs for students to become eligible for entry-level employment in a variety of fields and industries. Training Direct strives to assist those who may not have realized their full potential in the workplace by finding such individuals a new career direction and assisting in progressing their learning skills necessary to reach their earning and personal development possibilities and goals. Training Direct maintains licenses from the Connecticut Commissioner of Higher Education, the Connecticut Department of Health Services and the National Health Career Association, and is an Eligible Training Provider under the Workforce Investment Act. Such licenses require that Training Direct have a competent faculty, offer educationally sound and up-to-date courses and course materials, and be subject to inspections and approvals by outside examining committees.

The following diagrams set forth our corporate structure, both before and after giving effect to consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement and the Purchase Agreement described below.


 
(1)  Corporate name will be changed to “Educational Investors Corp.” pursuant to the Merger Agreement.

(2)  Effective August 20, 2009, Valley Anesthesia, Inc. purchased certain assets and assumed certain liabilities and operations of Valley Anesthesia Educational Programs, Inc. for an aggregate purchase price of $3,838,215, plus certain contingent payments which are subject to the achievement of predetermined operating milestones.

Corporate Information

Agreement and Plan of Merger

On December 16, 2009, we executed an agreement and plan of merger with EII Acquisition Corp. (a newly formed acquisition subsidiary of Florham) (“Mergerco”), EII and its security holders, Sanjo Squared, LLC, Kinder Investments, LP, Joseph Bianco and Anil Narang (collectively, the “EII Securityholders”) pursuant to which Mergerco was merged with and into EII, with EII as the surviving corporation of the merger, as a result of which EII became a wholly-owned subsidiary of our company. Under the terms of the merger agreement, the EII Securityholders received (i) an aggregate of 6,000,000 shares of our common stock, (ii) options to acquire 2,558,968 additional shares of our common stock, 50% of which have an initial exercise price of $0.41 per share and 50% of which have an initial exercise price of $0.228 per share, subject to certain performance targets set forth in the merger agreement, and (iii) 250,000 shares of our Series A Preferred Stock, with each share of  Series A Preferred Stock automatically convertible into 49.11333 shares of common stock upon the filing by us of an amendment to our certificate of incorporation which increases the authorized shares of our common stock to at least 50,000,000.
 
Pursuant to the terms of the reverse merger, we agreed to cause (i) the shares of common stock issued and outstanding prior to the effective time of the reverse merger; and (ii) up to 930,000 shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of warrants expiring on June 30, 2016 at an exercise price of $0.05 per share, to be registered for resale under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, as soon as practicable following the effective time of the reverse merger.

The closing of the transactions contemplated by the merger agreement were subject to a number of conditions including, without limitation, completion of due diligence, approval of the merger agreement by the Boards of Directors of EII and our company and the prior or simultaneous closing of the interest purchase agreement (as discussed below). On December 31, 2009, the parties to the merger agreement deemed all closing conditions to be satisfied and accordingly, the reverse merger was consummated. As a result of the reverse merger, we believe we are no longer a shell corporation as that term is defined in Rule 405 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

At the closing of the reverse merger, all of our officers resigned and Joseph Bianco was appointed as our Chief Executive Officer, Anil Narang was appointed as our President and Chief Operating Officer, and Kellis Veach was appointed as our Chief Financial Officer and Secretary. In addition, our sole director resigned and Joseph Bianco, Anil Narang, Dov Perlysky, Howard Spindel and David Cohen were appointed as our directors, with such resignation and appointments effective on January 22, 2010, representing the tenth day after mailing our Schedule 14f-1 Information Statement to our shareholders of record.

We have filed an Information Statement on Schedule 14C under the Exchange Act, and upon the effectiveness of such Information Statement and the expiration of the requisite 20 day period following mailing of such Information Statement to our shareholders, we will amend and restate our certificate of incorporation to, among other things:
 
 
  · 
increase our authorized common stock to 50,000,000 shares; and
 
  ·
change our corporate name to “Educational Investors Corp.”.
 
On December 23, 2009, holders of a majority of our issued and outstanding shares of common stock have consented in writing to approve (i) the merger agreement and the transactions contemplated therein, (ii) our corporate name change; (iii) the increase in our authorized shares of common stock; and (iv) our 2009 Stock Incentive Plan for key employees, directors, consultants and others providing services to us, pursuant to which up to 1,500,000 shares of common stock shall be authorized for issuance thereunder.  Although the Company elected to obtain consents to the merger from holders of a majority of the then outstanding Company shares, the Company believes that under Delaware law, neither such consents nor any other Company shareholder approvals were required as a pre-condition to the valid consummation of the reverse merger, which was structured as a reverse triangular merger.  Subject to approval from the SEC, Kinder Investments, L.P. and Sanjo Squared, LLC, each affiliates of the Company, propose to enter into a new written shareholder consent authorizing each of the name change, the share capital increase and the 2009 Stock Incentive Plan.

Interest Purchase Agreement

In addition to the merger agreement, on December 16, 2009, EII entered into an interest  purchase agreement with the members of Training Direct, and our company, pursuant to which EII acquired all outstanding membership interests, on a fully diluted basis, of Training Direct in exchange for (a) $200,000 cash, (b) shares of our common stock having a deemed value of  $600,000 (the “Acquisition Shares”), with such number of Acquisition Shares to be determined by dividing $600,000 by the “Discounted VWAP” (as defined below) for the 20 “Trading Days” (as defined below) immediately following the consummation of the reverse merger, and (c) shares of our  common stock having a deemed value of $300,000 (the “Escrow Shares”), with such number of Escrow Shares to be determined by dividing $300,000 by the Discounted VWAP for the 20 Trading Days immediately following the consummation of the reverse merger. The Escrow Shares will be held in escrow and released therefrom as provided in the purchase agreement. “Discounted VWAP” is defined in the purchase agreement as 70% of the “VWAP” of our common stock, but in no event less than $0.40 per share. “VWAP” is defined in the purchase agreement as a fraction, the numerator of which is the sum of the product of (i) the closing trading price for our common stock on the applicable national securities exchange on each Trading Day of the 20 Trading Days following the consummation of the reverse merger, and (ii) the volume of our common stock on the applicable national securities exchange for each such day and the denominator of which is the total volume of our common stock on the applicable national securities exchange during such twenty day period, each as reported by Bloomberg Reporting Service or other recognized market price reporting service. “Trading Day” is defined in the purchase agreement as any day on which the New York Stock Exchange or other national securities exchange on which our common stock trades is open for trading.  The Discounted VWAP for the twenty Trading Days after the effective date of the reverse merger was $1.67.  Accordingly, on March 3, 2010 we issued an aggregate of 359,281 Acquisition Shares and 179,641 Escrow Shares.
 
            The closing of the purchase agreement was subject to a number of conditions including, without limitation, approval of the change of ownership of Training Direct by the Connecticut Department of Higher Education, the execution by us, EII and the EII Securityholders of all documents  necessary to affect the reverse merger, approval of the purchase agreement by the Board of Directors of EII and the board of managers of Training Direct and execution of a certain employment agreement and consulting agreement. On December 31, 2009, the parties to the purchase agreement deemed all closing conditions to be satisfied and accordingly, the purchase and sale of the Training Direct membership interests was consummated.

Valley’s Program Offerings

Seminars

Each review and update course includes 26 hours over a three-day time period. The courses are located throughout the United States in areas with high concentrations of nursing programs. Seminars are typically held in hotel conference rooms located close to airports to minimize logistical issues for traveling students.

 
6

 
 
Registration for the seminars can be completed online, by mail or by telephone. Registration for courses for the following year occurs at the end of August. Once the registration period has commenced, there is significant enrollment in the seminars within a couple days. Seminars in Cleveland and Philadelphia have traditionally had the highest student enrollments with two courses in Cleveland that included 217 and 216 students, respectively, and 215 students in Philadelphia in 2007. In 2008, the seminars had enrollments for two courses in Philadelphia of 224 and 220 students, respectively, and in Cleveland for two courses of 219 and 216 students, respectively. In 2009, the seminars had enrollments for two courses in Cleveland of 211 and 209 students, respectively, a course in Philadelphia with enrollment of 218 students and a course in Dallas with enrollment of 217 students.

Manuals

Valley publishes a course manual which is purchased by students enrolled in the seminars and others. The course manual consists of over 600 pages and is printed by a third party. While the volume is fairly substantial, the complexity of the printing is not excessive and the manuals are not bound. Production costs were approximately $175,000 in 2007, $186,000 in 2008 and $182,000 in 2009. The manuals are ordered from the printers each fall after registration has begun for the following year’s courses and correspondingly, the majority of the printing costs are incurred in the fourth quarter.  Since the per unit cost to print 100 manuals is the same as the cost to print one, Valley only orders enough books to meet its known demand. As Valley receives additional orders, it places orders with its vendor to print the required quantity to meet the additional demand.

MemoryMasterTM

Valley offers its MemoryMasterTM study guide collection of approximately 4,000 questions and answers to aid its students in preparation for the NCE by facilitating the memorization and understanding of a large body of anesthesia-related facts, concepts and issues. MemoryMasterTM content is categorized according to the outline provided by the Council on Certification of Nurse Anesthesia, which includes:

 
 ·
basic and related clinical sciences;
 
 ·
equipment, instrumentation and technology;
 
 ·
basic principles of anesthesia;
 
 ·
advanced principles of anesthesia; and
 
 ·
professional issues.

MemoryMasterTM is offered in two forms: (i) a bound, soft covered book, and (ii) flash cards.  The book provides the entire MemoryMasterTM content in a side-by-side format, with questions appearing on the left side of each page and the corresponding answers on the right side.

MemoryMasterTM is printed by the same third party source as the course manuals. MemoryMasterTM can also be ordered from the printers on an as needed basis. Management estimates that MemoryMasterTM accounted for approximately $340,000 of revenue in 2009. Historically, the fourth quarter includes the greatest amount of MemoryMasterTM shipments and related revenue.

On-Line Practice Examinations

Valley anticipates that there will be a fourth revenue source beginning in 2010, which is from on-line practice examinations that management expects to launch in the second quarter of 2010. Valley’s on-line practice examinations will be a test assessment program where students can visit a mock testing center (the “Center”) on-line. Practice examinations and subject-specific quizzes will be available for student practice purposes. Valley believes that this will be a popular addition to its offerings, and that most students who take its courses, and others who do not, will avail themselves of the new test assessment Center. As of the date hereof, pricing for this program has not been finalized but it is expected that the Center will be fully functional during the second quarter of 2010.

Training Direct’s Program Offerings

Distance Learning Programs

Distance learning programs provide an additional opportunity to individuals who may not have acquired all of the education they need and are unable to take advantage of residential training educational opportunities. Distance learning is defined as enrollment and study with an educational institution that provides lesson materials prepared in a sequential and logical order for study by students on their own, allowing students to acquire new professional skills while studying at home at their own pace. In order to help each student in their field of study, Training Direct provides counseling and lesson assistance by telephone and through mail.

Our Industry

General

The domestic non-traditional education sector is a significant and growing component of the postsecondary degree-granting education industry, which was estimated to be a $386 billion industry in 2007, according to the Digest of Education Statistics published in 2009 by the U.S. Department of Education’s National Center for Education Statistics. According to the same study, in 2007, over 6.9 million, or 38%, of all students enrolled in higher education programs were over the age of 24, and enrollment in degree-granting institutions between 2008 and 2017 is expected to increase 19% for students over age 25. These students would not be classified as traditional (i.e., 18 to 24 years of age, living on campus, supported by parents, and not working full-time). The non-traditional students typically are looking to improve their skills and enhance their earnings potential within the context of their careers. We believe that the demand for non-traditional education will continue to increase, reflecting the knowledge-based economy in the U.S.

Many working learners seek accredited degree programs that provide flexibility to accommodate the fixed schedules and time commitments associated with their professional and personal obligations. The education formats offered by our institutions enable working learners to attend classes and complete coursework on a more convenient schedule than traditional universities offer. Although more colleges and universities are beginning to address some of the needs of working learners, many universities and institutions do not effectively address the needs of working learners for the following reasons:
 
 
 ·
Traditional universities and colleges were designed to fulfill the educational needs of conventional, full-time students ages 18 to 24, and that industry sector remains the primary focus of these universities and institutions. This focus has resulted in a capital-intensive teaching/learning model that may be characterized by: (i) a high percentage of full-time, tenured faculty; (ii) physical classrooms, library facilities and related full-time staff; (iii) dormitories, student unions, and other significant physical assets to support the needs of younger students; and (iv) an emphasis on research and related laboratories, staff, and other facilities.
 
 ·
The majority of accredited colleges and universities continue to provide the bulk of their educational programming on an agrarian calendar with time off for traditional breaks. The traditional academic year runs from September to mid-December and from mid-January to May. As a result, most full-time faculty members only teach during that limited period of time. While this structure may serve the needs of the full-time, resident, 18 to 24-year-old student, it limits the educational opportunities for working learners who must delay their education for up to four months during these traditional breaks.
 
 ·
Traditional universities and colleges may also be limited in their ability to provide the necessary customer service for working learners because they lack the necessary administrative and enrollment infrastructure.
 
 
11

 

 
 ·
Diminishing financial support for public colleges and universities has required them to focus more tightly on their existing student populations and missions, which has reduced access to education.

Valley

According to the American Association of Nurse Anesthetists (“AANA”), in the United States there were 118 accredited nurse anesthesia programs in 2010. This number grew from 108 programs in 2006, 2007, 2008 and 2009, and from 95 programs in 2005. Most SRNAs are registered with the AANA.  As set forth in the table below, the number of SRNAs registered with the AANA has increased substantially over the past ten years. Valley has developed strategic relationships with accredited nurse anesthesia programs and with the AANA. Many of the programs have requested that Valley provide courses specifically for their programs, however, Valley currently provides courses for only one school located in Tennessee.

Training Direct

Training Direct is one of the largest schools operating in the state of Connecticut within the Higher Educational Community that offers short term training programs, which lead to numerous employment opportunities within the Health Care Profession.  Our Certified Nurse’s Aide training program as well as Medical Billing and Coding Specialist course are both under four weeks in length and have been very popular among our student population.

Training Direct is also one of the only private schools offering distance learning education programs in the State of Connecticut.  Our distance education programs offer our students the ability to take courses from home without having to attend a classroom setting due to such things as family or transportation constraints.  Training Direct enrollments in our programs have increased 25% from 2008 to 2009.

Our Strategy and Key Corporate Objectives

Our goal is to strengthen and capitalize on our position as a provider of high quality, accessible education for individuals throughout the United States. Our principal focus is to provide high quality educational products and services to our students in order for them to maximize the benefit of their educational experience.

Generally, we intend to use our expertise to enhance the quality, delivery and student outcomes associated with the respective curricula across our entire group of subsidiaries. We believe we can leverage our organizational capabilities to offer innovative products, optimize our cost structure and create new growth opportunities. Finally, we intend to continue to invest in our people, systems and organization, as they are the foundation for our future success. In our opinion, these efforts are the basis for enabling us to meet and exceed our customer’s expectations and further differentiate us from our competition.

Specifically, EII’s key business development objectives over the next three to five years are to seek and consummate potential acquisitions with companies engaged in the business of providing vocational training and test preparation products and services. In addition, management intends to launch and further develop on-line test assessment programs and web-based course offerings.

Management has identified a number of such potential acquisitions within the broad context of vocational training and test preparation, although we have not signed any definitive agreement with respect to any additional acquisitions. Management believes that in addition to the usual advantages of “rolling up” similar companies, such as reduced administrative overhead, vocational schools in particular lend themselves to significant enhancement through synergy among the schools. For example, Training Direct’s licensure in the State of Connecticut can be used to sanction related course offerings currently in place in an acquisition target. Thus by acquisition, Training Direct may be able to significantly expand its course offerings and subject areas, without commensurate increases in overhead. Similarly, Valley, which management believes has a valuable brand name among anesthetists, can acquire a program that actually trains (rather than test-prepares) anesthetists, making profitable use of its reputation that has been established over the course of a decade.

Moreover, management believes that the vocational training space is highly fragmented and offers many opportunities for the acquisition and enhancement of small-niche schools, and we plan to aggressively pursue an acquisition strategy over the course of the next three to five years.

Generally, we believe that because of the small, development-stage nature of many potential acquisition targets that opportunities for synergy, such as those described above for Valley and Training Direct, will provide significant opportunities for revenue-expansion and increased profitability, without significant operational cost increases.

Valley and Training Direct, as well as many potential acquisition targets, have limited or nascent on-line utilities. As with the new Valley test assessment center, we believe that both Valley and Training Direct can expand revenue by offering distance learning and distance practice products related to their existing in-classroom programs. Training Direct believes that its existing distance learning program described above, which involves mailing student work papers back and forth, can be substantially enhanced by use of the Internet, both in terms of enlarging the number of students who can take such courses and by significantly reducing costs.

Valley intends to eventually develop an online course, so that students who cannot travel to a specific classroom seminar can still enroll for a Valley course. Such an online program would also be a useful addition for refresher training for students who have actually attended a seminar. Development of this program has just begun and it is not expected to be available for at least two years.

Our Research and Development

Valley and Training Direct have been developing on-line educational programs, including Valley’s on-line testing examination center. In addition, Valley’s and Training Direct’s programs are continually updated to ensure that students are always current with the most updated practices and procedures. Any major revisions to Training Direct’s curriculum are always reviewed by the Connecticut Department of Higher Education for final approval.  All programs lead to certification from the National Health Career Association or Connecticut State Licensure. To date, the costs of such research and development activities have been immaterial and are not borne by our customers.

Our Customers and Marketing

Valley

Customers

Valley’s customer base consists almost exclusively of SRNAs preparing to take the NCE. It takes considerable commitment by individuals to become a Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist (“CRNA”). The education and experience requirements to become a CRNA include the following:

 
  ·
a Bachelor’s of Science in Nursing or other appropriate baccalaureate degree;
 
  ·
a current license as a registered nurse;
 
  ·
at least one year’s experience in an acute care nursing setting;
 
  ·
graduation from an accredited graduate school of nurse anesthesia;
 
  ·
clinical training in university-based or large community hospitals; and
 
  ·
passing a national certification examination following graduation.

Because there are extensive steps and financial resources required for eligibility to sit for the NCE, SRNAs are highly incented to pass the exam and are typically willing to enroll in courses to obtain any advantage for passing the NCE.  According to the AANA, in 2005 the reported average annual salary for a CRNA was $160,000. The high salaries paid to CRNAs provide further incentive to SRNAs to pass the certification exam on the first or second attempt. Moreover, due to what management believes is a high demand for CRNAs in the industry, students that pass the certifying exam are employed almost immediately.

As a result of the strong demand for CRNAs and the benefits associated with passing the exam, annual enrollment in Valley’s courses has increased since 1998:

Our Competition and Competitive Advantages
 
Valley

Valley recognizes few if any direct competitors. There are a limited number of companies publishing manuals designed to help students prepare for the NCE, including, without limitation, Concepts Anesthesia Review, and Board Stiff Live. However, these competitors are not providing an exam review course. Management believes that this enables Valley to take advantage of potential growth opportunities within its market with limited price or other competition.  Within the past 30 to 60 days, Dannemiller, a company engaged in the continuing medical education business, announced that it will be offering a review course for the NCE.

Training Direct

Training Direct has very limited competition in Connecticut. Both the Nurse’s Aide Training and Medical Billing and Coding courses are very much in demand because Training Direct is located in an area which has a very high concentration of hospitals and medical facilities. 

Our Regulatory Environment

Our operations are subject to significant regulations. New or revised interpretations of regulatory requirements could have a material adverse effect on us. In addition, changes in existing or new interpretations of applicable laws, rules, or regulations could have a material adverse effect on our accreditation, authorization to operate in various states, permissible activities, and operating costs. The failure to maintain or renew any required regulatory approvals, accreditation, or state authorizations could have a material adverse effect on us.

Training Direct’s operations are regulated by the Department of Higher Education of the State of Connecticut (the “DHE”) from which Training Direct received its initial approval and license in 2004. The DHE seeks to promote a postsecondary system of distinctive strengths which, through overall coordination and focused investment, assures state citizens access to high quality educational opportunities, responsiveness to individual and State needs, and efficiency and effectiveness in the use of resources. The Board of Governors for Higher Education is the statewide coordinating and planning authority for Connecticut's public and independent colleges and universities.  The Board makes higher education policy, reviews public college and university missions and budgets, recommends system-wide budgets to the Governor and State General Assembly, licenses and accredits academic programs and institutions (both public and independent), evaluates institutional effectiveness and coordinates programs and services between the public and independent sectors. Under the Board’s supervision, the DHE carries out Board policy, administers statewide student financial aid programs, oversees private occupational schools and conducts research and analysis on issues important to legislators and the public.

The DHE maintains and ensures that the approved occupational schools offer programs and courses that have proper organization and structure that meet their stated objectives.  Also, the DHE maintains and ensures that approved occupational schools under their licensure follow all state statutes and regulations.

Seasonality
 
Our cash receipts fluctuate primarily as a result of the pattern of student enrollments.  Generally, the schools’ highest enrollment and cash receipts typically occur in the fall, which corresponds to the third and fourth quarters our fiscal year. Enrollment is slightly lower in the spring, and the lowest enrollment generally occurs during the summer months.  Our operating costs are relatively fixed and do not fluctuate as significantly on a quarterly basis.  Our variable expenses fluctuate in accordance with course offerings and include course materials, salaries and (for Valley) facility costs.

Employees

After the reverse merger and the acquisition of Training Direct, we have 3 executive officers. Valley has a total of 4 full-time employees. Training Direct has a total of 6 full-time employees and 10 part-time employees. Over the next 12 months, we do not expect to add significant personnel. None of our employees are covered by collective bargaining agreements. We believe that our relations with our employees are good.

Item 1A.  Risk Factors.

You should carefully consider the risks described below in conjunction with our forward looking statement related risks as set forth in the beginning of this report, as well as the other information in this report, when evaluating our business and future prospects. Should any of the following risks actually occur, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be seriously harmed. In that event, the market price of our common stock could decline and investors could lose all or a portion of the value of their investment in our common stock.

Risks Related to Our Business and Industry in Which We Operate

We are subject to risks relating to enrollment of students.  If we are not able to continue to successfully recruit and retain our students, we will not be able to sustain our revenue growth rate.

Building awareness of our schools and the programs we offer is critical to our ability to attract prospective students. If our schools are unable to successfully market and advertise their educational programs, our schools’ ability to attract and enroll prospective students in such programs could be adversely affected, and, consequently, our ability to increase revenue or maintain profitability could be impaired. It is also critical to our success that we convert these prospective students to enrolled students in a cost-effective manner and that these enrolled students remain active in our programs. Some of the factors that could prevent us from successfully enrolling and retaining students in our programs include:

 
 ·
the emergence of more attractive competitors;
 
 ·
factors related to our marketing, including the cost and effectiveness of Internet advertising and broad-based branding campaigns;
 
 ·
inability to expand program content and develop new programs in a timely and cost-effective manner;
 
 ·
performance problems with, or capacity constraints of, our online education delivery systems;
 
 ·
failure to maintain accreditation;
 
 ·
inability to continue to recruit, train and retain quality faculty;
 
 ·
student or employer dissatisfaction with the quality of our services and programs;
 
 ·
student financial, personal or family constraints;
 
 ·
adverse publicity regarding us, our competitors or online or for-profit education generally;
 
 ·
tuition rate reductions by competitors that we are unwilling or unable to match;
 
 ·
a decline in the acceptance of online education;
 
 ·
increased regulation of online education, including in states in which we do not have a physical presence;
 
 ·
a decrease in the perceived or actual economic benefits that students derive from our programs or education in general; and
 
 ·
litigation or regulatory investigations that may damage our reputation.
 
In addition, our educational programs are concentrated in selected areas of healthcare, law and business. If applicant career interests shift away from these fields, and we do not anticipate or adequately respond to that trend, future enrollment and revenue may decline.  If employment opportunities for our graduates in fields related to their educational programs decline, future enrollment and revenue may decline as potential applicants choose to enroll at other educational institutions offering different courses of study.

We are subject to risks relating to tuition pricing, which could have a material adverse affect on our financial results.

If other educational institutions reduce their price of tuition, our educational programs could become less attractive to prospective students. In addition, we may be unable, for competitive reasons, to maintain and increase tuition rates in the future, thereby adversely affecting future revenues and earnings.

Our financial performance depends, in part, on our ability to keep pace with changing market needs and technology; if we fail to keep pace or fail in implementing or adapting to new technologies, our business may be adversely affected.
 
Increasingly, prospective employers of students who graduate from our schools demand that their new employees possess appropriate technological skills and also appropriate “soft” skills, such as communication, critical thinking and teamwork skills. These skills can evolve rapidly in a changing economic and technological environment. Accordingly, it is important for our schools’ educational programs to evolve in response to these economic and technological changes. The expansion of existing programs and the development of new programs may not be accepted by current or prospective students or the employers of our graduates. Even if our schools are able to develop acceptable new programs, our schools may not be able to begin offering those new programs as quickly as required by prospective employers or as quickly as our competitors offer similar programs. In addition, we may be unable to obtain specialized accreditations or licensures that may make certain programs desirable to students. To offer a new academic program, we may be required to obtain federal, state and accrediting agency approvals, which may be conditioned or delayed in a manner that could significantly affect our growth plans. If we are unable to adequately respond to changes in market requirements due to regulatory or financial constraints, unusually rapid technological changes, or other factors, our ability to attract and retain students could be impaired, the rates at which our graduates obtain jobs involving their fields of study could suffer, and our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows could be adversely affected.

Establishing new academic programs or modifying existing programs requires us to make investments in management and capital expenditures, incur marketing expenses and reallocate other resources. We may have limited experience with the courses in new areas and may need to modify our systems and strategy or enter into arrangements with other educational institutions to provide new programs effectively and profitably. If we are unable to increase the number of students or offer new programs in a cost-effective manner, or are otherwise unable to manage effectively the operations of newly established academic programs, our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows could be adversely affected.
 
We have invested and continue to invest significant resources in information technology, which is a key element of our business strategy. Our information technology systems and tools could become impaired or obsolete due to our action or failure to act. For instance, we could install new information technology without accurately assessing its costs or benefits, or we could experience delayed or ineffective implementation of new information technology. Similarly, we could fail to respond in a timely or sufficiently competitive way to future technological developments in our industry. Should our action or failure to act impair or otherwise render our information technology less effective, this could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

We are subject to risks relating to our information technology, system applications and security systems, which could have a material adverse affect on our financial results.

The performance and reliability of our computer networks and system applications, especially our online educational platforms and student operational and financial packaging applications, are critical to our reputation and ability to attract and retain students.  System errors and/or failures could adversely impact our delivery of educational content to our online students.  In addition, system errors could result in delays and/or errors in processing student financial payment and related disbursements. Major risks involved in such network infrastructure include any break-downs or system failures resulting in a sustained shutdown of all or a material portion of our servers, including failures which may be attributable to sustained power shutdowns, or efforts to gain unauthorized access to our systems causing loss or corruption of data or malfunctions of software or hardware.  Security breaches of our information systems can also create unauthorized disclosure of confidential information, such as the personal information of our students or credit card information.  If we are unable to prevent such security breaches, our operations could be disrupted, our students could suffer financial loss or become the victims of identity theft, or we may suffer reputational damage and/or financial loss because of lost or misappropriated information.

Our network systems are also vulnerable to damage from fire, flood, power loss, telecommunications failures, computer viruses, hacking and similar events. Any network interruption, virus or other inadequacy that causes interruptions in the availability of the online educational programs or deterioration in the quality of access to the online educational platforms could reduce our student’s satisfaction and ultimately harm our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, any security breach caused by hackings, which involve efforts to gain unauthorized access to information or systems, or to cause intentional malfunctions or loss or corruption of data, software, hardware or other computer equipment, and the inadvertent transmission of computer viruses could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. We do not maintain insurance policies covering losses relating to our network systems and we do not have business interruption insurance.

Future acquisitions may have an adverse effect on our ability to manage our business.

Selective acquisitions form part of our strategy to expand our business. We have limited prior experience integrating any new companies into ours, and we believe that integration of a new company’s operation and personnel will require significant management attention. The diversion of our management’s attention from our business and any difficulties encountered in the integration process could have an adverse effect on our ability to manage our business.

We may pursue acquisitions of companies, technologies and personnel that are complementary to our existing business. However, our ability to grow through future acquisitions or investments or hiring will depend on the availability of suitable acquisition and investment candidates at an acceptable cost, our ability to compete effectively to attract these candidates, and the availability of financing to complete larger acquisitions. We may face significant competition in executing our growth strategy. Future acquisitions or investments could result in potential dilutive issuances of equity securities or incurrence of debt, contingent liabilities or impairment of goodwill and other intangible assets, any of which could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations. The benefits of an acquisition or investment may also take considerable time to develop and any particular acquisition or investment may not produce the intended benefits.

 
17

 

Future acquisitions would also expose us to potential risks, including risks associated with the assimilation of new operations, technologies and personnel, unforeseen or hidden liabilities, the diversion of resources from our existing businesses, educational programs and technologies, the inability to generate sufficient revenue to offset the costs and expenses of acquisitions, and potential loss of, or harm to, our relationships with employees and students as a result of the integration of new businesses.

If regulators do not approve our domestic acquisitions, the acquired schools’ state licenses, accreditation, and ability to participate in Title IV programs (if applicable) may be impaired.
 
When we acquire an institution, we must seek approval from the U.S. Department of Education if the acquired institution participates in Title IV programs, and from most applicable state agencies and accrediting agencies because an acquisition is considered a change of ownership or control of the acquired institution under applicable regulatory standards. A change of ownership or control of an institution under the U.S. Department of Education standards can result in the temporary suspension of the institution’s participation in the Title IV programs unless a timely and materially complete application for recertification is filed with the U.S. Department of Education and it issues a temporary provisional certification. If we are unable to obtain approvals from the state agencies, accrediting agencies or U.S. Department of Education for any institution we may acquire in the future, depending on the size of that acquisition, such a failure to obtain approval could have a material adverse effect on our business.
 
If regulators do not approve or delay their approval of transactions involving a change of control of our company, our state licenses and accreditation may be impaired.
 
A change of ownership or control of EII, depending on the type of change, may have significant regulatory consequences for Training Direct. State licensing agencies, including the Connecticut Department of Higher Education (“DHE”), have adopted the change of ownership and control standards. Such a change of ownership or control could require recertification and reauthorization by state licensing agencies, including the DHE. There can be no assurances that such recertification would be obtained on a timely basis. In addition, some states where Training Direct is presently licensed have requirements governing change of ownership or control that require approval of the change to remain authorized to operate in those states. If regulators do not approve or delay their approval of transactions involving a change of control of our company, our state licenses and accreditation may be impaired.

If any regulatory audit, investigation or other proceeding finds us not in compliance with the numerous laws and regulations applicable to the postsecondary education industry, we may not be able to successfully challenge such finding and our business could suffer.
 
Due to the highly regulated nature of the postsecondary education industry, we are subject to audits, compliance reviews, inquiries, complaints, investigations, claims of non-compliance and lawsuits by state governmental agencies, regulatory agencies, accrediting agencies, present and former students and employees, shareholders and other third parties, any of whom may allege violations of any of the regulatory requirements applicable to us. If the results of any such claims or actions are unfavorable to us, we may be required to pay monetary fines or penalties, be required to repay funds received under state financial aid programs, have restrictions placed on or terminate our schools’ or programs’ eligibility to participate in state or federal financial aid programs, have limitations placed on or terminate our schools’ operations or ability to grant degrees and certificates, have our schools’ accreditations restricted or revoked, or be subject to civil or criminal penalties. Any one of these sanctions could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows and result in the imposition of significant restrictions on us and our ability to operate.
 
If we fail to maintain any of our state authorizations, we would lose our ability to operate in that state.
 
Training Direct is authorized to operate and to grant certificates by the applicable state agency of each state where such authorization is required and where we maintain a campus. The loss of such authorization in one or more states could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. Loss of authorization in one or more states could increase the likelihood of additional scrutiny and potential loss of operating and/or degree granting authority in other states in which we operate, which would further impact our business.

Government regulations relating to the Internet could increase our cost of doing business, affect our ability to grow or otherwise have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
 
The increasing popularity and use of the Internet and other online services has led and may lead to further adoption of new laws and regulatory practices in the U.S. or foreign countries and to new interpretations of existing laws and regulations. These new laws and interpretations may relate to issues such as online privacy, copyrights, trademarks and service marks, sales taxes, value-added taxes, withholding taxes, allocation and apportionment of income amongst various state, local and foreign jurisdictions, fair business practices and the requirement that online education institutions qualify to do business as foreign corporations or be licensed in one or more jurisdictions where they have no physical location or other presence. New laws, regulations or interpretations related to doing business over the Internet could increase our costs and materially and adversely affect our enrollments, which could have a material adverse affect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

 
18

 
 
Our success depends on attracting and retaining qualified personnel.
 
We depend on a core management and key executives.  In particular, we rely on the expertise and experience of our senior officers and key employees in our business operations and their personal relationships with our other significant shareholders, employees, the regulatory authorities, and our students. If any of them become unable or unwilling to continue in their present positions, or if they join a competitor or form a competing company in contravention of their employment agreements, we may not be able to identify a replacement easily, our business may be significantly disrupted and our financial condition and results of operations may be materially adversely affected. We currently maintain key-man life insurance in the amount of $2.5 million for Anil Narang, our President and Chief Operating Officer.  We do not currently maintain key-man life insurance for any of our other key personnel.
 
We may not be able to adequately protect our intellectual property, and we may be exposed to infringement claims by third parties.

We believe the copyrights, service marks, trademarks, trade secrets and other intellectual property we use are important to our business, and any unauthorized use of such intellectual property by third parties may adversely affect our business and reputation. We rely on the intellectual property laws and contractual arrangements with our employees, clients, business partners and others to protect such intellectual property rights. Third parties may be able to obtain and use such intellectual property without authorization. Moreover, litigation may be necessary in the future to enforce our intellectual property rights, which could result in substantial costs and diversion of our resources, and have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We may be subject to infringement and misappropriation claims in the future, which may cause us to incur significant expenses, pay substantial damages and be prevented from providing our services.

Our success depends, in part, on our ability to carry out our business without infringing the intellectual property rights of third parties. We may be subject to litigation involving claims of patent, copyright or trademark infringement, or other violations of intellectual property rights of third parties. Future litigation may cause us to incur significant expenses, and third-party claims, if successfully asserted against us, may cause us to pay substantial damages, seek licenses from third parties, pay ongoing royalties, redesign our services or technologies, or prevent us from providing services or technologies subject to these claims. Even if we were to prevail, any litigation would likely be costly and time-consuming and divert the attention of our management and key personnel from our business operations.

Risks Related to Our Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Our limited operating history and the unproven long-term potential of our business model make evaluating our business and prospects difficult.

We were incorporated on February 9, 2005 in the State of Delaware, EII was incorporated on July 20, 2009 in the State of Delaware, Training Direct was formed on January 7, 2004 in the State of Connecticut and Valley Anesthesia Educational Programs, Inc., from which we purchased certain assets and assumed certain liabilities in August 2009, was incorporated on March 10, 1993 in the State of Iowa. As our operating history is limited, the revenue and income potential of our business and markets are yet to be fully proven. In addition, we are exposed to risks, uncertainties, expenses and difficulties frequently encountered by companies at an early stage of development. Some of these risks and uncertainties relate to our ability to:

 
  ·
increase our student enrollment by expanding the type, scope and technical sophistication of the educational services we offer;
 
  ·
respond effectively to competitive pressures;
 
  ·
respond in a timely manner to technological changes or resolve unexpected network interruptions;
 
  ·
comply with changes to regulatory requirements;
 
  ·
maintain adequate control of our costs and expenses;
 
  ·
increase awareness of our educational programs; and
 
  ·
attract and retain qualified management and employees.

We cannot predict whether we will meet internal or external expectations of our future performance. If we are not successful in addressing these risks and uncertainties, our business, financial condition and results of operations may be materially adversely affected.
 
 
19

 

We may need additional capital and may not be able to obtain such capital on acceptable terms.
 
Capital requirements are difficult to plan in our industry. We currently expect that we will need capital to fund our future acquisitions, educational program development, technological infrastructure and sales and marketing activities.

Our ability to obtain additional capital on acceptable terms is subject to a variety of uncertainties, including:

 
  ·
 investors’ perceptions of, and demand for, securities of vocational, training and technical schools;
 
  ·
 conditions of the United States and other capital markets in which we may seek to raise funds;
 
  ·
 our future results of operations, financial condition and cash flows;
 
  ·
 governmental regulation of educational program providers; and
 
  ·
 economic, political and other conditions in United States.

Any failure by us to raise additional funds on terms favorable to us, or at all, may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. For example, we may not be able to carry out parts of our growth strategy to acquire vocational, training and/or technical schools that are complementary to our existing business or necessary to maintain our growth and competitiveness.

Our business may be adversely affected by a further economic slowdown in the U.S. or abroad or by an economic recovery in the U.S.
 
The U.S and much of the world economy are in the midst of an economic downturn. We believe the current economic downturn has contributed to a portion of our recent enrollment growth as an increased number of working learners seek to advance their education to improve job security or reemployment prospects. This effect cannot be quantified. However, to the extent that the economic downturn has increased demand for our programs, a subsequent economic recovery may eliminate this effect and reduce such demand as fewer potential students seek to advance their education. This reduction could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. A worsening of the economic downturn may reduce the demand for our programs among students and the willingness of employers to sponsor educational opportunities for their employees, either of which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
 
We may not be able to sustain our recent growth rate or profitability, and we may not be able to manage future growth effectively.
 
Our ability to sustain our current rate of growth or profitability depends on a number of factors, including our ability to obtain and maintain regulatory approvals, our ability to attract and retain students, our ability to maintain operating margins, our ability to recruit and retain high quality academic and administrative personnel and competitive factors. In addition, growth may place a significant strain on our resources and increase demands on our management information and reporting systems, financial management controls, and personnel. Although we have made a substantial investment in augmenting our financial and management information systems and other resources to support future growth, we cannot assure you that we will have adequate capacity to accommodate substantial growth or that we will be able to manage further growth effectively. Failure to do so could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Risks Relating to Our Securities

Insiders have substantial control over us, and they could delay or prevent a change in our corporate control even if our other stockholders wanted it to occur.
 
Our executive officers and directors hold approximately 320% (see Item 12 herein) of our outstanding common stock, which includes (i) shares owned by our officers and/or directors, (ii) shares attributable to certain entities in which our officers and directors share beneficial ownership, (iii) shares underlying our Series A Preferred Stock that will be converted into shares of Florham Common Stock upon the filing of our amended and restated certificate of incorporation for purposes of increasing our authorized shares to 50,000,000, and (iv) shares issuable upon exercise of stock options which have vested as of the date of this report.  Accordingly, these stockholders are able to control all matters requiring stockholder approval, including the election of directors and approval of significant corporate transactions.  This could delay or prevent an outside party from acquiring or merging with us even if our other stockholders wanted it to occur. 

There may not be sufficient liquidity in the market for our securities in order for investors to sell their securities.

Our common stock is quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board under the current symbol "FHMS". There is a limited trading market for our common stock. Accordingly, there can be no assurance as to the liquidity of any markets that may develop for our common stock, the ability of holders of our common stock to sell our common stock, or the prices at which holders may be able to sell our common stock.

 
20

 

The market price of our common stock may be volatile.

     The market price of our common stock has been and will likely continue to be highly volatile, as is the stock market in general, and the market for OTC Bulletin Board quoted stocks in particular. Some of the factors that may materially affect the market price of our common stock are beyond our control, such as changes in financial estimates by industry and securities analysts, conditions or trends in the industry in which we operate or sales of our common stock.  These factors may materially adversely affect the market price of our common stock, regardless of our performance.  In addition, the public stock markets have experienced extreme price and trading volume volatility.  This volatility has significantly affected the market prices of securities of many companies for reasons frequently unrelated to the operating performance of the specific companies.  These broad market fluctuations may adversely affect the market price of our common stock.

The outstanding convertible securities may adversely affect us in the future and cause dilution to existing shareholders.

As of March 30, 2010, we had 6,705,622 shares of Common Stock outstanding, of which 179,741 are held in escrow and are subject to earnout provisions, and 250,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock outstanding, each of which shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall be converted, on the basis of 49.11333 shares of Florham Common Stock for each share of Series A Preferred Stock (an aggregate of 12,278,333 shares of Florham Common Stock) automatically upon the filing by the Company of an amendment to its certificate of incorporation increasing its authorized shares of Florham Common Stock to not less than 50,000,000 shares. In addition, there are outstanding 5-year options to purchase an aggregate of 3,436,328 shares of Common Stock and outstanding warrants to purchase 930,000 shares of Common Stock expiring on June 30, 2016 at an exercise price of $0.05 per share. The conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock and the exercise of options and warrants will cause dilution in the interests of other shareholders as a result of the additional common stock that would be issued upon conversion and/or exercise. Moreover, subject to any applicable lock-up restrictions, sales of the shares of our outstanding common stock, shares issuable upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock, and shares issuable upon exercise of the options and warrants could have a depressive effect on the price of our stock, particularly if there is not a coinciding increase in demand by purchasers of our common stock.  Further, the terms on which we may obtain additional financing during the period any of such securities remain outstanding may be adversely affected by the existence of these securities as well.

Our common stock may be considered a “penny stock” and may be difficult to sell.

     The SEC has adopted regulations which generally define a “penny stock” to be an equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share or an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to specific exemptions. The market price of our common stock is less than $5.00 per share and, therefore, it may be designated as a “penny stock” according to SEC rules.  This designation requires any broker or dealer selling these securities to disclose certain information concerning the transaction, obtain a written agreement from the purchaser and determine that the purchaser is reasonably suitable to purchase the securities.  These rules may restrict the ability of brokers or dealers to sell our common stock and may affect the ability of investors to sell their shares.

The market for penny stocks has experienced numerous frauds and abuses which could adversely impact investors in our stock.

OTCBB securities are frequent targets of fraud or market manipulation, both because of their generally low prices and because OTCBB reporting requirements are less stringent than those of the stock exchanges.

Patterns of fraud and abuse include:

 
(a)
Control of the market for the security by one or a few broker-dealers that are often related to the promoter or issuer;
 
(b)
Manipulation of prices through prearranged matching of purchases and sales and false and misleading press releases;
 
(c)
“Boiler room" practices involving high pressure sales tactics and unrealistic price projections by inexperienced sales persons;
 
(d)
Excessive and undisclosed bid-ask differentials and markups by selling broker-dealers; and
 
(e)
Wholesale dumping of the same securities by promoters and broker-dealers after prices have been manipulated to a desired level, along with the inevitable collapse of those prices with consequent investor losses.
 
Our management is aware of the abuses that have occurred historically in the penny stock market.

We have not paid dividends in the past and do not expect to pay dividends in the future, and any return on investment may be limited to the value of our stock.

We have never paid any cash dividends on our common stock and do not anticipate paying any cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future and any return on investment may be limited to the value of our stock.  We plan to retain any future earnings to finance growth.

Item 1B. Unresolved Staff Comments.

Not applicable.

Item 2. Properties.

EII’s and Valley’s principal executive offices are located at 845 Third Avenue, 6th Floor, New York, New York 10022. Valley rents office space from one of its officers under a lease expiring August 20, 2010 and pays $725 per month. EII also reimburses another officer $2,992 per month for rent of office space on a month-to-month basis. Valley’s principal operating office is located at 1995 Country Club Blvd, Clive, Iowa 50325. Training Direct’s principal executive offices are located at 3885 Main Street, 2nd Floor, Bridgeport, Connecticut 06606, which also houses the company’s classrooms, and offices for administration, admissions, and student services, in approximately 6,000 square feet. Such premises are leased with a rental payment of $5,850 per month, plus annual increases of 3% or the CPI annual increase, if greater, and expires in October 2019.

We believe that our facilities are adequate to meet our current needs. Our offices are in good condition and are sufficient to conduct our operations. We do not intend to renovate, improve, or develop properties. We are not subject to competitive conditions for property and currently have no property to insure. We have no policy with respect to investments in real estate or interests in real estate and no policy with respect to investments in real estate mortgages. Further, we have no policy with respect to investments in securities of or interests in persons primarily engaged in real estate activities.

Item 3. Legal Proceedings.

Neither we nor any of our direct or indirect subsidiaries is a party to, nor is any of our property the subject of, any legal proceedings other than ordinary routine litigation incidental to their respective businesses.  There are no proceedings pending in which any of our officers, directors or 5% shareholders are adverse to us or any of our subsidiaries or in which they are taking a position or have a material interest that is adverse to us or any of our subsidiaries.

Neither we nor any of our subsidiaries is a party to any administrative or judicial proceeding arising under federal, state or local environmental laws.

From time to time, we may be involved in litigation relating to claims arising out of our operations in the normal course of business.

Item 4.  Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.

On December 23, 2009, holders of a majority of our issued and outstanding shares of common stock have consented in writing to approve (i) the merger agreement and the transactions contemplated therein, (ii) our corporate name change; (iii) the increase in our authorized shares of common stock to 50,000,000 shares; and (iv) our 2009 Stock Incentive Plan for key employees, directors, consultants and others providing services to us, pursuant to which up to 1,500,000 shares of common stock shall be authorized for issuance thereunder. Although the Company elected to obtain consents to the merger from holders of a majority of the then outstanding Company shares, the Company believes that under Delaware law, neither such consents nor any other Company shareholder approvals were required as a pre-condition to the valid consummation of the reverse merger, which was structured as a reverse triangular merger.  Subject to approval from the SEC, Kinder Investments, L.P. and Sanjo Squared, LLC, each affiliates of the Company, propose to enter into a new written shareholder consent authorizing each of the name change, the share capital increase and the 2009 Stock Incentive Plan.

The shares quoted are subject to the provisions of Section 15(g) and Rule 15g-9 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act"), commonly referred to as the "penny stock" rule. Section 15(g) sets forth certain requirements for transactions in penny stocks and Rule 15g-9(d)(1) incorporates the definition of penny stock as that used in Rule 3a51-1 of the Exchange Act.
 
The Commission generally defines penny stock to be any equity security that has a market price less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. Rule 3a51-1 provides that any equity security is considered to be a penny stock unless that security is: registered and traded on a national securities exchange meeting specified criteria set by the Commission; authorized for quotation on The NASDAQ Stock Market; issued by a registered investment company; excluded from the definition on the basis of price (at least $5.00 per share) or the registrant's net tangible assets; or exempted from the definition by the Commission. Trading in the shares is subject to additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell penny stocks to persons other than established customers and accredited investors, generally persons with assets in excess of $1,000,000 or annual income exceeding $200,000, or $300,000 together with their spouse.
 
For transactions covered by these rules, broker-dealers must make a special suitability determination for the purchase of such securities and must have received the purchaser's written consent to the transaction prior to the purchase. Additionally, for any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the rules require the delivery, prior to the first transaction, of a risk disclosure document relating to the penny stock market. A broker-dealer also must disclose the commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative, and current quotations for the securities. Finally, the monthly statements must be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stocks held in the account and information on the limited market in penny stocks. Consequently, these rules may restrict the ability of broker dealers to trade and/or maintain a market in the company’s common stock and may affect the ability of shareholders to sell their shares.

Number of Shareholders

As of March 30, 2010, there were 6,705,622 shares of our common stock issued and outstanding, of which 179,741 shares are held in escrow and are subject to earnout provisions, and approximately 117 holders of record of our common stock. This number excludes any estimate by us of the number of beneficial owners of shares held in street name, the accuracy of which cannot be guaranteed.  The transfer agent for our common stock is American Stock Transfer & Trust Co. LLC, 59 Maiden Lane, New York, N.Y. 10038.

Dividends

We have never declared or paid dividends on our common stock.  We intend to retain earnings, if any, to support the development of our business and therefore do not anticipate paying cash dividends for the foreseeable future.  Payment of future dividends, if any, will be at the discretion of our board of directors after taking into account various factors, including current financial condition, operating results and current and anticipated cash needs.

(1)  On December 23, 2009, our board of directors and holders of a majority of our issued and outstanding shares of common stock have consented in writing to approve our 2009 Stock Incentive Plan for key employees, directors, consultants and others providing services to us, pursuant to which up to 1,500,000 shares of common stock shall be authorized for issuance thereunder.  Subject to approval from the SEC, Kinder Investments, L.P. and Sanjo Squared, LLC, each affiliates of the Company, propose to enter into a new written shareholder consent authorizing each of the name change, the share capital increase and the 2009 Stock Incentive Plan.

Other than as set forth above, we do not have any stock option, bonus, profit sharing, pension or similar plan.

The above table does not include the following stock option grants which were made outside of the 2009 Stock Incentive Plan:

On August 20, 2009, Joseph Bianco purchased options to purchase 1,166,667 (the “Bianco EII Stock Options”) shares of EII common stock at an exercise price equal to $0.25 per share with respect to 583,334 options and $0.45 per share with respect to 583,333 options in exchange for a $10,000 principal amount promissory note from Mr. Bianco, as compensation for services performed on behalf of EII in his capacity as Chief Executive Officer.

            Under the merger agreement, the Bianco EII Stock Options were converted into 5-year options to purchase an aggregate of 1,279,484 shares of our common stock at an exercise price equal to $0.228 per share with respect to 639,742 options (the “Bianco Tier I Options”) and $0.41 per share with respect to 639,742 options (the “Bianco Tier II Options”). The Bianco Tier I Options shall be exercisable only if the EBTDA Per Share for the applicable Measuring Period exceeds the Base Tier I EBTDA Per Share and the Bianco Tier II Options shall be exercisable only if the EBTDA Per Share for the applicable Measuring Period exceeds the Base Tier II EBTDA. The Bianco Tier I and Tier II Options shall be deemed vested as of the date of grant.

Base Tier I EBTDA Per Share means: (1) $0.036 for the Measuring Year ending December 31, 2010, (2) $0.055 for the Measuring Year ending December 31, 2011, (3) $0.091 for the Measuring Year ending December 31, 2012, (4) $0.109 for the Measuring Year ending December 31, 2013, and (5) $0.137 for the Measuring Year ending December 31, 2014. Base Tier II EBTDA Per Share means: (1) $0.055 for the Measuring Year ending December 31, 2010, (2) $0.091 for the Measuring Year ending December 31, 2011, (3) $0.137 for the Measuring Year ending December 31, 2012, (4) $0.164 for the Measuring Year ending December 31, 2013, and (5) $0.191 for the Measuring Year ending December 31, 2014. EBTDA Per Share means (1) the net income after taxes (exclusive of any non-recurring or extraordinary items paid or accrued) of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries (if any) in the applicable Measuring Year, plus (A) federal and state income taxes paid or accrued in such Measuring Year, (B) amounts paid or accrued in such Measuring Year in respect of depreciation of tangible assets, and (C) amounts paid or accrued in such Measuring Year in respect of amortization of intangible assets, including goodwill, all as set forth on the audited consolidated statements of income or operations of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries (if any) in the applicable Measuring Year and as determined in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP") by the Company’s independent accountants, divided by (2) the weighted average of the outstanding common stock, measured on a fully diluted basis.

On August 20, 2009, Anil Narang purchased options to purchase 1,166,667 (the “Narang EII Stock Options”) shares of EII common stock at an exercise price equal to $0.25 per share with respect to 583,334 options and $0.45 per share with respect to 583,333 options in exchange for a $10,000 principal amount promissory note from Mr. Narang, as compensation for services performed on behalf of EII in his capacity as President and Chief Operating Officer.

Under the merger agreement, the Narang EII Stock Options were converted into 5-year options to purchase an aggregate of 1,279,484 shares of our common stock at an exercise price equal to $0.228 per share with respect to 639,742 options (the “Narang Tier I Options”) and $0.41 per share with respect to 639,742 options (the “Narang Tier II Options”). The Narang Tier I Options shall be exercisable only if the EBTDA Per Share for the applicable Measuring Period exceeds the Base Tier I EBTDA Per Share and the Narang Tier II Options shall be exercisable only if the EBTDA Per Share for the applicable Measuring Period exceeds the Base Tier II EBTDA. The Narang Tier I and Tier II Options shall be deemed vested as of the date of grant.  Base Tier I EBTDA Per Share and EBTDA Per Share have the same meanings set forth above.

There were no purchases or repurchases of our equity securities by the Company or any affiliated purchasers.

Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

During the fourth quarter of 2009, we issued (or contracting to issue) equity securities without registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, as follows:

On December 16, 2009, we executed an agreement and plan of merger with EII Acquisition Corp. (a newly formed acquisition subsidiary of Florham) (“Mergerco”), EII and its security holders, Sanjo Squared, LLC, Kinder Investments, LP, Joseph Bianco and Anil Narang (collectively, the “EII Securityholders”) pursuant to which Mergerco was merged with and into EII, with EII as the surviving corporation of the merger, as a result of which EII became a wholly-owned subsidiary of our company. Under the terms of the merger agreement, the EII Securityholders received (i) an aggregate of 6,000,000 shares of our common stock, (ii) options to acquire 2,558,968 additional shares of our common stock, 50% of which have an initial exercise price of $0.41 per share and 50% of which have an initial exercise price of $0.228 per share, subject to certain performance targets set forth in the merger agreement, and (iii) 250,000 shares of our Series A Preferred Stock, with each share of Series A Preferred Stock automatically convertible into 49.11333 shares of common stock upon the filing by us of an amendment to our certificate of incorporation which increases the authorized shares of our common stock to at least 50,000,000.

In addition to the merger agreement, on December 16, 2009, EII entered into an interest purchase agreement with the members of Training Direct, and our company, pursuant to which EII acquired all outstanding membership interests, on a fully diluted basis, of Training Direct in exchange for (a) $200,000 cash, (b) shares of our common stock having a deemed value of $600,000 (the “Acquisition Shares”), with such number of Acquisition Shares to be determined by dividing $600,000 by the “Discounted VWAP” (as defined below) for the 20 “Trading Days” (as defined below) immediately following the consummation of the reverse merger, and (c) shares of our common stock having a deemed value of $300,000 (the “Escrow Shares”), with such number of Escrow Shares to be determined by dividing $300,000 by the Discounted VWAP for the 20 Trading Days immediately following the consummation of the reverse merger. The Escrow Shares will be held in escrow and released therefrom as provided in the purchase agreement. “Discounted VWAP” is defined in the purchase agreement as 70% of the “VWAP” of our common stock, but in no event less than $0.40 per share. “VWAP” is defined in the purchase agreement as a fraction, the numerator of which is the sum of the product of (i) the closing trading price for our common stock on the applicable national securities exchange on each Trading Day of the 20 Trading Days following the consummation of the reverse merger, and (ii) the volume of our common stock on the applicable national securities exchange for each such day and the denominator of which is the total volume of our common stock on the applicable national securities exchange during such twenty day period, each as reported by Bloomberg Reporting Service or other recognized market price reporting service. “Trading Day” is defined in the purchase agreement as any day on which the New York Stock Exchange or other national securities exchange on which our common stock trades is open for trading. The Discounted VWAP for the twenty Trading Days after the effective date of the reverse merger was $1.67.  Accordingly, on March 3, 2010 we issued an aggregate of 359,281 Acquisition Shares and 179,641 Escrow Shares.

On August 20, 2009, Joseph Bianco purchased options to purchase 1,166,667 (the “Bianco EII Stock Options”) shares of EII common stock at an exercise price equal to $0.25 per share with respect to 583,334 options and $0.45 per share with respect to 583,333 options in exchange for a $10,000 principal amount promissory note from Mr. Bianco, as compensation for services performed on behalf of EII in his capacity as Chief Executive Officer.

Overview

Florham Consulting Corp. ("Florham Consulting" or the "Company" or "we") was formed on February 9, 2005 as a Delaware corporation.  We have included elsewhere herein the financial statements of Florham Consulting Corp. and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2009 and 2008 and for the years then ended. On December 31, 2009, Florham Consulting completed a reverse merger with Educational Investors, Inc.  (“EII”) whereby EII became the continuing operation and Florham Consulting discontinued its consulting operations.

EII was incorporated on July 20, 2009.  EII through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Valley Anesthesia, Inc. (“Valley”), purchased certain assets and assumed certain liabilities of Valley Anesthesia Educational Programs, Inc. (“VAEP”) effective August 20, 2009. EII acquired the Membership Interest in Training Direct LLC (“Training Direct”) effective December 31, 2009.

The following discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations relates to the operations and financial condition reported in the financial statements of Florham Consulting Corp. and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2009 and 2008 and should be read in conjunction with such financial statements and related notes included herein.

Florham Consulting Corp. was an Internet professional services firm.  We provided our clients with an integrated set of strategic, creative and technology-based consulting services that enable them to effect and maximize their internet business.  As described elsewhere herein, on December 31, 2009, the Company completed a reverse merger with EII in a transaction whereby EII became the continuing entity and the Company discontinued its consulting operations.  Accordingly, we had no continuing consulting operations at December 31, 2009.    Our current and future business is described in the following narrative.

EII was incorporated for the purpose of acquiring vocational, training and technical schools, with an initial emphasis on the health care and medical industries.  Through its Valley Anesthesia, Inc. subsidiary, EII provides comprehensive review and update courses and study materials that aid Student Registered Nurse Anesthetists (“SRNA”) and Graduate Registered Nurse Anesthetists (“GRNA”) in preparation for the National Certifying Exam (“NCE”) throughout the continental United States.  Through its Training Direct subsidiary, EII provides “distance learning” and “residential training” educational programs for students to become eligible for entry-level employment in a variety of fields and industries. The company strives to assist those who may not have realized their full potential in the workplace in finding a new career direction and progressing in learning skills necessary to reach their earning and personal development possibilities and goals. Training Direct maintains approvals from the Connecticut Commissioner of Higher Education, the Connecticut Department of Health Services and the National Health Career Association, and is an Eligible Training Provider under the Workforce Investment Act. Such approvals require that the company have a competent faculty, offer educationally sound and up to date courses and course materials, and be subject to inspections and approvals by outside examining committees.

Acquisitions

Effective August 20, 2009, Valley purchased certain assets and assumed certain liabilities of Valley Anesthesia Educational Programs, Inc. for $3,838,215.  The purchase price included $2,000,000 cash, a promissory note at fair value of $1,702,883, the present value of an earnout of $79,990 and net liabilities assumed of $55,342. The purchase method of accounting was used for this transaction and the purchase price was allocated to the fair value of financial assets, liabilities, tradename/trademark/content, group and non-group registrations, website, review manuals and covenant not-to compete aggregating $3,654,658, and the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the identifiable assets was realized as goodwill. 

On December 16, 2009, EII entered into an Interest  Purchase Agreement ("TDI Agreement") with Training Direct LLC ("TDI") and its members and the Company pursuant to which EII acquired all outstanding membership interests, on a fully diluted basis, of TDI in exchange for (a) $200,000 cash, (b) shares of the Company's Common Stock having a deemed value of $600,000 (the "Acquisition Shares"), with such number of Acquisition Shares to be determined by dividing $600,000 by the "Discounted VWAP" (as defined below) for the twenty (20) "Trading Days" (as defined below) immediately following the consummation of the Reverse Merger and (c) shares of the Company's Common Stock having a deemed value of $300,000 (the "Escrow Shares"), with such number of Escrow Shares to be determined by dividing $300,000 by the Discounted VWAP for the twenty (20) Trading Days immediately following the consummation of the Reverse Merger. The Escrow Shares will be held in escrow and released therefrom as provided in the TDI Agreement. The closing of the TDI Agreement occurred on December 31, 2009. "Discounted VWAP" is defined in the TDI Agreement as seventy percent (70%) of the "VWAP" of the Company's Common Stock, but is in no event less than $0.40 per share. "VWAP" is defined in the TDI Agreement as a fraction, the numerator of which is the sum of the product of (i) the closing trading price for the Company's Common Stock on the applicable national securities exchange on each Trading Day of the twenty (20) Trading Days following the consummation of the Reverse Merger and (ii) the volume of the Company's  Common Stock on the applicable national securities exchange for each such day and the denominator of which is the total volume of the Company's Common Stock on the applicable national securities exchange during such twenty day period, each as reported by Bloomberg Reporting Service or other recognized market price reporting service. "Trading Day" is defined in the TDI Agreement as any day on which the New York Stock Exchange or other national securities exchange on which the Company's Common Stock trades is open for trading. The Discounted VWAP for the twenty Trading Days after the effective date of the Reverse Merger was $1.67.  Accordingly, an aggregate of 359,281 Acquisition Shares and 179,641 Escrow Shares have been issued.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of December 31, 2009, we had a deficit in working capital of approximately $164,000.  Included in working capital is deferred revenue of approximately $709,000, which will be earned during fiscal year 2010.
 
Net cash provided by operating activities was approximately $304,000, which is primarily for the period from the inception (July 20, 2009) of EII through December 31, 2009.

Net cash used in investing activities was primarily for the period from the inception of EII (July 20, 2009) through December 31, 2009 and was approximately $2,377,000.  This primarily related to the cash used for  purchase of certain assets of Valley Anesthesia Educational Programs, Inc. in the amount of $2,000,000, the acquisition of Training Direct in the amount of $200,000 and the purchase of fixed assets, the website for online testing and other assets in the approximate amount of approximately $101,000.

Net cash provided by financing activities was primarily related for the period from inception of EII (July 20, 2009) through December 31, 2009 was approximately $2,450,000.  This amount was from the net proceeds from the sale of common stock and options.

Although we expect that our available funds and funds generated from our operations will be sufficient to meet our anticipated needs for 12 months, we may need to obtain additional capital to continue to grow our business. Our cash requirements may vary materially from those currently anticipated due to changes in our operations, including the timing of our receipt of revenues.  Our ability to obtain additional financing in the future will depend in part upon the prevailing capital market conditions, as well as our business performance.  There can be no assurance that we will be successful in our efforts to arrange additional financing on terms satisfactory to us or at all.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our financial information has been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, which requires us to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect (1) the reported amounts of our assets and liabilities, (2) the disclosure of our contingent assets and liabilities at the end of each fiscal period and (3) the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during each fiscal period.  We continually evaluate these estimates based on our own historical experience, knowledge and assessment of current business and other conditions, our expectations regarding the future based on available information and reasonable assumptions, which together form our basis for making judgments about matters that are not readily apparent from other sources.  Since the use of estimates is an integral component of the financial reporting process, our actual results could differ from those estimates.  Some of our accounting policies require a higher degree of judgment than others in their application.

When reviewing our financial statements, you should consider (1) our selection of critical accounting policies, (2) the judgment and other uncertainties affecting the application of those policies, and (3) the sensitivity of reported results to changes in conditions and assumptions.  We believe the following accounting policies involve the most significant judgment and estimates used in the preparation of our financial statements.

Use of estimates in the preparation of financial statements

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results may differ from those estimates.  Estimates are used in accounting for, among other things, useful lives for depreciation and amortization, estimates of fair value when recording share based compensation, future cash flows associated with impairment testing for long-lived assets, deferred tax assets and the related valuation allowances and contingencies, including going concern assessments.

Cash

The Company maintains cash and cash equivalents with financial institutions which may at times exceed federally insured limits.

Property and equipment
 
Property and equipment are recorded at cost.  Depreciation is provided in amounts sufficient to amortize the cost of the related assets over their useful lives using the straight line method.  
 
Maintenance, repairs and minor renewals are charged to expense when incurred.  Replacements and major renewals are capitalized.
 
Impairment of long-lived assets
 
In the event that facts and circumstances indicate that the cost of an asset may be impaired, an evaluation of recoverability would be performed.  If an evaluation is required, the estimated future undiscounted cash flows associated with the asset would be compared to the asset’s carrying amount to determine if a write-down to market value is required. 

Website – Online Testing
 
Purchased computer software is capitalized and amortized over its estimated useful life starting when it is placed in service.

Income taxes
 
The Company utilizes the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes.  The asset and liability method requires that the current or deferred tax consequences of all events recognized in the financial statements are measured by applying the provisions of enacted tax laws to determine the amount of taxes payable or refundable currently or in future years.  An allowance against deferred tax assets is recognized when it is more likely than not that such tax benefits will not be realized.  Adjustment to the deferred tax assets and liabilities balances are recognized in income as they occur.
 
 
29

 

 Revenue Recognition

            The Company derives its revenue substantially from fees and tuition charged for courses and manuals.  The fees are recognized as revenue at the time of the attendance at the course and when the manual is shipped to customers.  The Company recognizes revenue from the sale of study guides when the study guides are shipped to customers. Fees for courses and study guides are paid in advance and the Company refunds only a portion of the fee upon cancellation. Deferred revenue is recorded when course fees are received in advance of the time of the attendance at the course and when the manual and study guides are shipped. Deferred revenue is also recorded for undelivered course hours in excess of tuition billed.  Tuition billed to students is recognized as revenue, determined by the percentage of completion method. The Company does not accept returns of manuals and study guides.  Therefore, the principals of revenue recognition are considered and applied in the Company’s recognition of revenue.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company, through its bank, issued an irrevocable letter of credit to the State of Connecticut Department of Higher Education in the amount of $40,000, as required.  This letter of credit may not be extended beyond December 31, 2021. As collateral for the letter of credit, the Company purchased a Certificate of Deposit with the bank in the amount of $40,000 which is included in Other Assets in the accompanying financial statements.

The Company conducts its operations from leased facilities.

The Company does not have any other off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors.
 
Results of Operations
 
The following table shows the results of our business.  All references to the results for the year ended December 31, 2009 include the results of operations of EII from July 20, 2009, the date of inception, and results of operations of VAI from August 20, 2009, the date of purchase of certain assets and operations of Valley Anesthesia Educational Programs, Inc., thorough December 31, 2009.  The results of Florham have been included as discontinued operations, as with the Reverse Merger, Florham discontinued its consulting operations and EII became the continuing operation.

Revenue.  Net revenue for the year ended December 31, 2009 was approximately $850,000, which was primarily the revenue of VAI. The Company conducted 3 courses during the period and fees for these courses accounted for approximately 41% of revenue.  Beginning in September, the Company began shipping the 2010 manuals and Memory Master study guides, which accounted for approximately 59% of revenue. 

Cost of Revenue.  Cost of revenue was approximately $221,000, which included the cost of conference facilities at hotels (19%), the cost of printing and shipping manuals and study guides (55%) and other costs (26%).

Selling and Administrative Expenses.  Selling and administrative expenses were approximately $378,000, and include salaries, payroll taxes and benefits in the approximate amount of $260,000, professional fees of approximately $110,000 primarily related to costs of the Reverse Merger and other costs of approximately $8,000.

Acquisition Costs.  The Company incurred approximately $343,000 of costs related to the purchase of certain assets and assumption of certain liabilities of Valley Anesthesia Educational Programs, Inc. and approximately $50,000 of costs related to the acquisition of Training Direct.

Stock Based Compensation.  The Company recorded stock based compensation in the amount of approximately $755,000 primarily as the result of the Company granting 548,350 options to directors and consultants, which were exercisable as of December 31, 2009.  The fair value of the options was determined by the Black-Scholes option pricing model.  At December 31, 2009, there was approximately $460,000 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested stock option awards which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2 years.

Depreciation and Amortization.  Depreciation and amortization was approximately $140,000.  This amount is substantially attributable to the amortization of intangible assets allocated in the purchase of certain assets and assumption of certain liabilities from Valley Anesthesia Educational Programs, Inc.

Interest expense. Interest expense in the amount of approximately $38,000 relates to the note issued to sellers in connection with the purchase of certain assets and assumption of certain liabilities from Valley Anesthesia Educational Programs, Inc.

 Net loss from continuing operations.  The Company incurred a net loss from continuing operations of approximately $1,074,000 for the year ended December 31, 2009.  The Company’s loss for the year ended December 31, 2008 has been restated as the result of the discontinued operations of the consulting operations of Florham Consulting.  The Company’s fiscal 2009 revenue less related cost of revenue and selling and administrative expenses resulted in income of approximately $252,000 prior to acquisition related costs of approximately $393,000, stock based compensation costs of approximately $755,000, depreciation and amortization attributable primarily to the amortization of intangible assets allocated in the purchase of certain assets and assumption of certain liabilities from Valley Anesthesia Educational Programs, Inc. in the approximate amount of $140,000, and interest on notes issued to sellers in connection with the purchase of certain assets and assumption of certain liabilities from Valley Anesthesia Educational Programs, Inc. in the approximate amount of $37,000.  This resulted in a loss from continuing operations of approximately $1,074,000.

Income taxes. The Company’s current income tax expense related to Federal and state income taxes was approximately $19,000 and.   a deferred income tax benefit has been reflected in the amount of $19,000.   Due to the uncertainty of the Company’s ability to utilize net operating loss carryforwards in the future, the Company has provided a valuation allowance in the amount of approximately $454,000 on the deferred tax asset in the approximate amount of $473,000.

Discontinued operations.  The Company had losses of approximately $22,000 and $16,000 for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively, from its discontinued operations.  Consulting revenue for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 were approximately $16,000 and $14,000, respectively.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
Florham Consulting Corp. and Subsidiaries
 
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Florham Consulting Corp. and Subsidiaries (the "Company"), as of December 31, 2009 and 2008, and the related consolidated statements of operations, change in shareholders' equity, and cash flows for the years then ended. The Company's management is responsible for these consolidated financial statements.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

 
We conducted our audits in accordance with standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement.  The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing auditing procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.  We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2009 and 2008 and the results of its consolidated operations and its cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

FLORHAM CONSULTING CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2009 and 2008
 

 
1 -  ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF BUSINESS

Florham Consulting Corp. (“Florham”) was formed on February 9, 2005, as a Delaware Corporation and has its corporate offices located in New York, NY. On December 31, 2009, Florham completed a reverse merger with Educational Investors, Inc. (“EII”). Under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, the share exchange is considered to be an in substance capital transaction, as opposed to a business combination.  Accordingly, the share exchange is equivalent to the issuance of stock by Florham for the net monetary assets of EII, accompanied by a recapitalization, and is accounted for as a change in capital structure.  Accordingly, the accounting for the share exchange is identical to that resulting from a reverse acquisition, with no goodwill being recorded.  Under reverse takeover accounting, the post reverse acquisition fiscal 2009 historical financial statements of the legal acquirer, Florham, are those of the legal acquiree which is considered to be the accounting acquirer, EII.  Shares and per share amounts reported have been adjusted to reflect the recapitalization resulting from the reverse merger. Included in our financial statements are Florham’s consulting operations, which are shown as discontinued effectively as of January 1, 2008.

Educational Investors, Inc. was incorporated on July 20, 2009 in Delaware and has its corporate offices located in New York, NY.  The Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Valley Anesthesia, Inc. (“Valley”), was incorporated in Delaware and has its corporate offices located in New York, NY. EII’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Training Direct, LLC (“Training Direct”) was formed as a limited liability company in Connecticut on January 7, 2004 and has its corporate offices located in Bridgeport, CT.  The above entities are collectively referred to as Florham Consulting Corp. and Subsidiaries (collectively the “Company”).

Effective August 20, 2009, Valley purchased certain assets and assumed certain liabilities and operations of Valley Anesthesia Educational Programs, Inc. The Company through Valley provides comprehensive review and update courses and study materials to Student Registered Nurse Anesthetists in preparation for the National Certifying Exam throughout the continental United States.

Effective December 31, 2009, EII acquired all of the membership interest in Training Direct.  The Company through Training Direct, a state licensed vocational training school, provides “distance learning” and “residential training” educational programs for students to become eligible for entry-level employment in a variety of fields and industries.

2 -   SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

This summary of significant accounting policies of the Company is presented to assist in understanding the Company’s consolidated financial statements.  The consolidated financial statements and notes are representations of the Company’s management who are responsible for their integrity and objectivity.  These accounting policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the financial statements.

a. Principles of Consolidation - The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Florham Consulting Corp. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries.  All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

b. Cash and Cash Equivalents - The Company considers all short-term investments, with an original maturity of three months or less, to be cash equivalents.  Accounts at banking institutions may at times exceed federally insured limits.  As of December 31, 2009 and 2008, the Company had $331,818 and $0 over such limits, respectively.

c. Earnings Per Share - Basic earnings per share is computed using the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding.  For purposes of calculation basic earnings per share, awards of nonvested stock that are subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions are excluded from the weighted average number of common shares outstanding until all necessary conditions have been satisfied.  Diluted earnings per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares and potentially dilutive common equivalent shares outstanding, including non vested stock.

d. Revenue Recognition - The Company derives its revenue substantially from fees and tuition charged for courses and manuals.  The fees are recognized as revenue at the time of the attendance at the course and when the manual is shipped to customers.  The Company recognizes revenue from the sale of study guides when the study guides are shipped to customers. Fees for courses and study guides are paid in advance and the Company refunds only a portion of the fee upon cancellation. Deferred revenue is recorded when course fees are received in advance of the time of the attendance at the course and when the manual and study guides are shipped. Deferred revenue is also recorded for undelivered course hours in excess of tuition billed.  Tuition billed to students is recognized as revenue, determined by the percentage of completion method. The Company does not accept returns of manuals and study guides.

e. Cost of Revenue – Cost of revenue includes costs of printing and shipping of course materials, costs of facilities used for presentation of courses, preparation of course materials, and other operating costs.

f. Acquisition-Related Cost – Costs incurred in the formation of the Company and in the acquisition of operating assets and business operations are expensed as incurred.

g. Accounts Receivable – Accounts receivable are recorded net of an allowance for uncollectible amounts.  On a periodic basis, the Company evaluates its accounts receivable and establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts based on a history of past write-offs and collections as well as current conditions.  As of December 31, 2009, the Company recorded an allowance of $12,688.
 
F-6

 
h. Inventory - The Company generally does not maintain an inventory of manuals and study guides.  These materials are ordered from the printing company as customer orders are received.  Manuals received and not yet shipped are carried at cost computed on a first-in, first-out basis.
 
i. Fixed Assets - Fixed assets are carried at cost.  Depreciation of furniture and equipment is calculated using the straight line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets ranging from three to seven years. Leasehold improvements are amortized using the straight line method over the term of the lease. Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are charged to expense as incurred.

j. Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results may differ from those estimates.  Estimates are used in accounting for, among other things, useful lives for depreciation and amortization, recording fair value of share based compensation, future cash flows associated with impairment testing for long-lived assets, deferred tax assets and the related valuation allowances and contingencies, including going concern assessments.

k. Fair Value of Financial Instruments - The Company’s financial instruments consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and deferred revenue which approximate fair value because of their short maturities.  The Company’s notes payable (or long-term debt) approximates the fair value of such instruments based upon management’s best estimate of interest rates that would be available to the Company for similar financial arrangements at December 31, 2009.

l. Goodwill - The Company has adopted Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 350 which eliminated the amortization of goodwill and substituted an annual review of the asset for possible impairment, requiring the comparison of fair market value to carrying value.  Fair market value is estimated using the present value of expected future cash flows and other internally calculated measures.  The Company has completed the required testing of goodwill for impairment and has determined that none of its goodwill is impaired.

m. Impairment of Long-Lived Assets - In the event that facts and circumstances indicate that the cost of an asset may be impaired, an evaluation of recoverability would be performed.  If an evaluation is required, the estimated future undiscounted cash flows associated with the asset would be compared to the asset’s carrying amount to determine if a write-down to market value is required.  At December 31, 2009, the Company does not believe that any impairment has occurred.

F-7

 
n. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements - In September 2009, the Company implemented the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”).  All of the content included in the Codification is considered authoritative.  The Codification is not intended to amend GAAP, but codifies previous accounting literature.  The Company has changed the referencing of authoritative accounting literature to conform to the Codification.
 
The Company adopted ASC 855-10 “Subsequent Events”.  The Codification does not require significant changes regarding recognition or disclosure of subsequent events, but does require disclosure of the date through which subsequent events have been evaluated for disclosure and recognition.  The ASC is effective for financial statements issued after June 15, 2009.  The adoption did not have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

The Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2009-13, “Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force”.  This ASU establishes a selling price hierarchy for determining the selling price of a deliverable, inclusive of an estimated selling price if neither vendor specific objective evidence nor third party evidence is available.

Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective accounting pronouncements, if adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanying financial statements.

o. Income Taxes - The Company utilizes the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes.  The asset and liability method requires that the current or deferred tax consequences of all events recognized in the financial statements are measured by applying the provisions of enacted tax laws to determine the amount of taxes payable or refundable currently or in future years.  An allowance against deferred tax assets is recognized when it is more likely than not that such tax benefits will not be realized.  Adjustment to the deferred tax assets and liabilities balances are recognized in income as they occur. The Company has determined that there are no uncertain tax positions pursuant to ASC 740 and does not expect this to change over the next twelve months.  The Company may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities based on the technical merits of the position.  The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties associated with uncertain tax positions as part of the income tax provision.
 
In addition to its Federal income tax return, the Company and its subsidiaries are obligated to file tax returns in various states.  All periods within the applicable jurisdictions’ statute of limitations remain open to government audit.

p. Stock Based Compensation - The Company recognizes the cost of directors, consultants and employee services received in exchange for awards of equity instruments, such as stock options, based on the fair value of those awards at the date of grant over the requisite service period.  The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to determine the fair value of stock-option awards.  Stock-based compensation plans, related expenses and assumptions used in the Black-Scholes option pricing model are more fully described in Note 10.

q. Industry Segment Information - The Company has determined that it operates under one segment, and is not required to report on its operations by segment.

15 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Subsequent events have been evaluated for disclosure and recognition through the time of filing our annual report on Form 10-K.
 
F-20

 
 Item 9.   Changes in and Disagreements With Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure.

We have had no disagreements with our independent registered public accountants with respect to accounting practices or procedures or financial disclosure.

Item 9A.   Controls and Procedures.

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. Under Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, management is required to assess the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of the end of each fiscal year and report, based on that assessment, whether the Company’s internal control over financial reporting is effective.

Management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting.  The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance as to the reliability of the Company’s financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

Internal control over financial reporting, no matter how well designed, has inherent limitations.  Therefore, internal control over financial reporting determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and may not prevent or detect all misstatements. Moreover, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

The Company’s management has assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2009.  In making this assessment, the Company used the criteria established by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in “Internal Control-Integrated Framework.” These criteria are in the areas of control environment, risk assessment, control activities, information and communication, and monitoring. 

Based on the Company’s processes and assessment, as described above, management has concluded that, as of December 31, 2009, the Company’s internal control over accounts receivable and assessment of allowances for doubtful accounts was not effective.

Upon identification of the weakness in measuring and assessing accounts receivable, management has evaluated remedial measures consisting principally of upgrading of automated systems and procedures.

Although this material weakness over preparation of the financial statements and related disclosures existed at year end, the consolidated financial statements in this Annual Report on Form 10-K fairly present, in all material respects, our financial condition as of December 31, 2009 and 2008, and our results from operations for the years then ended, in conformity with GAAP.

While appropriate steps to remediate the material weakness described above are being evaluated, additional measures may be required. The effectiveness of our internal controls following our remediation efforts will not be known until we further test those controls in connection with management’s tests of internal control over financial reporting.

This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Such report is not required by the Company’s registered public accounting firm.
 
(b) Changes in internal controls. During the year ended December 31, 2009, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Rule 13a-15 or Rule 15d-15 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting  

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting for our company in accordance with as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Our internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the (i) effectiveness and efficiency of operations, (ii) reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and (iii) compliance with applicable laws and regulations. Our internal controls framework is based on the criteria set forth in the Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).

 
33

 
 
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Management’s assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting is as of the year ended December 31, 2009. We believe that internal control over financial reporting is effective.  We have not identified any material weaknesses considering the nature and extent of our current operations or any risks or errors in financial reporting under current operations.

This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission
 
Item 9B. Other Information.

We do not have any information required to be disclosed in a report on Form 8-K during the fourth quarter of 2009 that was not reported.

Board of Directors

All directors will hold office until the next annual meeting of shareholders and until their successors have been duly elected and qualified. Officers are elected by and serve at the discretion of the Board of Directors.

Role of the Board of Directors

Pursuant to Delaware law, our business, property and affairs are managed under the direction of the Company’s board of directors. The board has responsibility for establishing broad corporate policies and for the overall performance and direction of the Company, but is not involved in day-to-day operations. Members of the board keep informed of the Company’s business by participating in board meetings, by reviewing analyses and reports sent to them regularly, and through discussions with its executive officers.

Board Committees

We have not established an audit committee, compensation committee, nominating committee or other committee of our board of directors. However, we intend to establish an audit committee, compensation committee, nominating committee or other committee of our board of directors which complies with the independence and other rules of the NYSE Amex Stock Exchange.
 
Advisory Board 
 
We do not currently have an advisory board.

Compensation of the Board of Directors

Directors who are also our employees do not receive additional compensation for serving on the Board. Non-employee directors are not paid any annual cash fee. In addition, directors are entitled to receive options under our stock option plan. All directors are reimbursed for their reasonable expenses incurred in attending Board meetings.
 
Director Independence 
 
Presently, we are not required to comply with the director independence requirements of any securities exchange.  In determining whether our directors are independent, however, we intend to comply with the rules of the NYSE Amex Stock Exchange.  The board of directors also will consult with counsel to ensure that the board of directors’ determinations are consistent with those rules and all relevant securities and other laws and regulations regarding the independence of directors, including those adopted under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 with respect to the independence of future audit committee members.  The NYSE Amex listing standards define an “independent director” generally as a person, other than an officer of a company, who does not have a relationship with the company that would interfere with the director’s exercise of independent judgment.
 
Currently we do not satisfy the “independent director” requirements of the NYSE Amex Stock Exchange, which requires that a majority of a company’s directors be independent.  Our board of directors intends to appoint additional members, each of whom will satisfy such independence requirements.

Family Relationships 
 
Anil Narang, our President, Chief Operating Officer and Director, and Ashok Narang, the Vice President and Director of Training Direct, are brothers. Except as set forth in the precedent sentence, there are no family relationships among directors and executive officers.
 
Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings.  

None of our officers or directors have, during the last five years: (i) been convicted in or is currently subject to a pending a criminal proceeding; (ii) been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of such proceeding was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to any federal or state securities or banking laws including, without limitation, in any way limiting involvement in any business activity, or finding any violation with respect to such law, nor (iii) has any bankruptcy petition been filed by or against the business of which such person was an executive officer or a general partner, whether at the time of the bankruptcy of for the two years prior thereto.

Executive officers, directors and greater-than-10% shareholders are required by SEC regulations to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) reports they file. Based solely on review of the copies of such reports furnished to us for the year ended December 31, 2009, the Section 16(a) reports required to be filed by our executive officers, directors and greater-than-10% shareholders were filed on a timely basis.

Code of Ethics

As of the date of this prospectus, we have not adopted a Code of Ethics applicable to all of our employees, officers and directors, wherever they are located and whether they work for the Company on a full or part-time basis.  The Company intends to adopt a Code of Ethics in the near future so that it complies with the NYSE Amex rules and regulations. The Code will provide rules and procedures to help the Company’s employees, officers and directors recognize and respond to situations that present ethical issues.   Compliance with this code will be mandatory and those who violate the standards in this Code will be subject to disciplinary action.

Stock Incentive Plan

We had no stock incentive plans as of the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008.

On December 23, 2009, our board of directors and holders of a majority of our issued and outstanding shares of common stock have consented in writing to approve our 2009 Stock Incentive Plan for key employees, directors, consultants and others providing services to us, pursuant to which up to 1,500,000 shares of common stock shall be authorized for issuance thereunder. Kinder Investments, L.P. and Sanjo Squared, LLC, each affiliates of the Company, propose to enter into a new written shareholder consent authorizing each of the name change, the share capital increase and the 2009 Stock Incentive Plan.  The following paragraphs describe the principal terms of the 2009 Plan.

Purpose. The purpose of the 2009 Plan is to provide the Company with a means to assist in recruiting, retaining and rewarding certain employees, directors and consultants and to motivate such individuals to exert their best efforts on behalf of the Company by providing incentives through the granting of awards. By granting awards to such individuals, the Company expects that the interests of the recipients will be better aligned with the interests of the Company.

Stock Subject to the 2009 Plan. Currently a total of 1,500,000 shares of Common Stock may be issued under the 2009 Plan, subject to adjustments. The Company may use shares held in treasury in lieu of authorized but unissued shares. If any award expires or terminates, the shares subject to such award shall again be available for purposes of the 2009 Plan. Any shares used by the participant as payment to satisfy a purchase price related to an award, and any shares withheld by the Company to satisfy an applicable tax-withholding obligation, shall again be available for purposes of the 2009 Plan.

Administration of the 2009 Plan. The 2009 Plan is administered by the board of directors. The board of directors has sole discretion over determining individuals eligible to participate in the 2009 Plan and the time or times at which awards will be granted and the number of shares, if applicable, which will be granted under an award. Subject to certain limitations, the board of directors’ power and authority includes, but is not limited to, the ability to interpret the 2009 Plan, to establish rules and regulations for carrying out the 2009 Plan and to amend or rescind any rules previously established, to determine the terms and provisions of the award agreements and to make all other determinations necessary or advisable for the administration of the 2009 Plan.

Eligible Persons. Any employee or director, as well as consultant to the Company, who is selected by the board of directors is eligible to receive awards. The board of directors will consider such factors as it deems pertinent in selecting participants and in determining the type and amount of their respective awards, provided that incentive stock options may only be granted to employees.

Grant of Awards. The types of awards that may be granted under the 2009 Plan are stock options (either incentive stock options or non-qualified stock options), stock appreciation rights, performance-based awards, as well as other stock-based awards and cash-based awards. Awards are evidenced by an agreement and an award recipient has no rights as a stockholder with respect to any securities covered by an award until the date the recipient becomes a holder of record of the Common Stock.

On the date of the grant, the exercise price must equal at least 100% of the fair market value in the case of incentive stock options, or 110% of the fair market value with respect to optionees who own at least 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock. The fair market value is determined by computing the arithmetic mean of the high and low stock prices on a given determination date. The exercise price on the date of grant is determined by the board of directors in the case of non-qualified stock options.

Stock appreciation rights granted under the 2009 Plan are subject to the same terms and restrictions as the option grants and may be granted independent of, or in connection with, the grant of options. The board of directors determines the exercise price of stock appreciation rights. A stock appreciation right granted independent of an option entitles the participant to payment in an amount equal to the excess of the fair market value of a share of the Common Stock on the exercise date over the exercise price per share, times the number of stock appreciation rights exercised. A stock appreciation right granted in connection with an option entitles the participant to surrender an unexercised option and to receive in exchange an amount equal to the excess of the fair market value of a share of the Common Stock over the exercise price per share for the option, times the number of shares covered by the option which is surrendered. Fair market value is determined in the same manner as it is determined for options.

The board of directors may also grant awards of stock, restricted stock and other awards valued in whole or in part by reference to the fair market value of the Common Stock. These stock-based awards, in the discretion of the board of directors, may be, among other things, subject to completion of a specified period of service, the occurrence of an event or the attainment of performance objectives. Additionally, the board of directors may grant awards of cash, in values to be determined by the board of directors. If any awards are in excess of $1,000,000 such that Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code applies, the board may, in its discretion, alter its compensation practices to ensure that compensation deductions are permitted.
 
Awards granted under the 2009 Plan are generally not transferable by the participant except by will or the laws of descent and distribution, and each award is exercisable, during the lifetime of the participant, only by the participant or his or her guardian or legal representative, unless permitted by the committee.

Limitation on Liability and Indemnification of Directors and Officers

Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law provides that a corporation may indemnify directors and officers as well as other employees and individuals against expenses including attorneys' fees, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement in connection with various actions, suits or proceedings, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative other than an action by or in the right of the corporation, a derivative action, if they acted in good faith and in a manner they reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, if they had no reasonable cause to believe their conduct was unlawful. A similar standard is applicable in the case of derivative actions, except that indemnification only extends to expenses including attorneys' fees incurred in connection with the defense or settlement of such actions, and the statute requires court approval before there can be any indemnification where the person seeking indemnification has been found liable to the corporation. The statute provides that it is not exclusive of other indemnification that may be granted by a corporation's certificate of incorporation, bylaws, agreement, and a vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise.

Our certificate of incorporation provides that we will indemnify and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, as amended from time to time, each person that such section grants us the power to indemnify.

The Delaware General Corporation Law permits a corporation to provide in its certificate of incorporation that a director of the corporation shall not be personally liable to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except for liability for any breach of the director's duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders; acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law; payments of unlawful dividends or unlawful stock repurchases or redemptions, or any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit.

Our certificate of incorporation provides that, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, none of our directors will be personally liable to us or our stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers or controlling persons of the Company, pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Company has been advised that, in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act, and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Company of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Company in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered hereunder, the Company will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

Acquisition and Escrow Shares under the Interest Purchase Agreement

On December 16, 2009, EII entered into an interest  purchase agreement with the members of Training Direct, and our company, pursuant to which EII acquired all outstanding membership interests, on a fully diluted basis, of Training Direct in exchange for (a) $200,000 cash, (b) shares of our common stock having a deemed value of  $600,000 (the “Acquisition Shares”), with such number of Acquisition Shares to be determined by dividing $600,000 by the “Discounted VWAP” (as defined below) for the 20 “Trading Days” (as defined below) immediately following the consummation of the reverse merger, and (c) shares of our  common stock having a deemed value of $300,000 (the “Escrow Shares”), with such number of Escrow Shares to be determined by dividing $300,000 by the Discounted VWAP for the 20 Trading Days immediately following the consummation of the reverse merger. The Escrow Shares will be held in escrow and released therefrom as provided in the purchase agreement. “Discounted VWAP” is defined in the purchase agreement as 70% of the “VWAP” of our common stock, but in no event less than $0.40 per share. “VWAP” is defined in the purchase agreement as a fraction, the numerator of which is the sum of the product of (i) the closing trading price for our common stock on the applicable national securities exchange on each Trading Day of the 20 Trading Days following the consummation of the reverse merger, and (ii) the volume of our common stock on the applicable national securities exchange for each such day and the denominator of which is the total volume of our common stock on the applicable national securities exchange during such twenty day period, each as reported by Bloomberg Reporting Service or other recognized market price reporting service. “Trading Day” is defined in the purchase agreement as any day on which the New York Stock Exchange or other national securities exchange on which our common stock trades is open for trading.  

The Discounted VWAP for the twenty Trading Days after the effective date of the reverse merger was $1.67.  Accordingly, on March 3, 2010 we issued an aggregate of 359,281 Acquisition Shares and 179,641 Escrow Shares, of which an aggregate of 161,676 Acquisition Shares and 80,838 Escrow Shares were issued to Joseph Bianco and Anil Narang.

 Review, Approval and Ratification of Related Party Transactions
 
Given our small size and limited financial resources, we had not adopted prior to the reverse merger formal policies and procedures for the review, approval or ratification of transactions, such as those described above, with our executive officers, directors and significant shareholders.  However, we intend that such transactions will, on a going-forward basis, be subject to the review, approval or ratification of our board of directors, or an appropriate committee thereof.
 
Director Independence
 
Presently, we are not required to comply with the director independence requirements of any securities exchange.  In determining whether our directors are independent, however, we intend to comply with the rules of the NYSE Amex Stock Exchange.  The board of directors also will consult with counsel to ensure that the board of directors’ determinations are consistent with those rules and all relevant securities and other laws and regulations regarding the independence of directors, including those adopted under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 with respect to the independence of future audit committee members.  The NYSE Amex listing standards define an “independent director” generally as a person, other than an officer of a company, who does not have a relationship with the company that would interfere with the director’s exercise of independent judgment.
 
Currently we do not satisfy the “independent director” requirements of the NYSE Amex Stock Exchange, which requires that a majority of a company’s directors be independent.  Our board of directors intends to appoint additional members, each of whom will satisfy such independence requirements.

Conflicts of Interest 
 
Certain potential conflicts of interest are inherent in the relationships between our officers and directors of and us.
 
Conflicts Relating to Officers and Directors  
 
To date, we do not believe that there are any conflicts of interest involving our officers or directors.
 
With respect to transactions involving real or apparent conflicts of interest, we have adopted policies and procedures which require that: (i) the fact of the relationship or interest giving rise to the potential conflict be disclosed or known to the directors who authorize or approve the transaction prior to such authorization or approval, (ii) the transaction be approved by a majority of our disinterested outside directors, and (iii) the transaction be fair and reasonable to us at the time it is authorized or approved by our directors.
