NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Condensed Financial Statements - The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of eRoomSystem Technologies, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (the "Company"). Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. These financial statements are condensed and, therefore, do not include all disclosures normally required by generally accepted accounting principles. These statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's annual financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011 included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K. In particular, the Company's organization, nature of operations and significant accounting principles were presented in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements in that annual report. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation have been included in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and consist of only normal recurring adjustments. The results of operations presented in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2012.

Cash and Cash Equivalents – Cash and cash equivalents include highly-liquid debt investments with original maturities of three months or less, readily convertible to known amounts of cash.

Inventory - The Company maintains an inventory of product that is sold in the refreshment centers in a number of hotels. The Company also maintains an inventory of refreshment centers to be placed in hotels. The inventory is purchased as finished goods and is valued using the first in, first out method.

Net Earnings (Loss) per Common Share - Basic earnings (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss), adjusted to add back interest associated with convertible debt, by the weighted-average number of common shares and dilutive potential common share equivalents outstanding. When dilutive, the incremental potential common shares issuable upon exercise of stock options are determined by the treasury stock method.

The following table is a reconciliation of the numerators and denominators used in the calculation of basic and diluted weighted-average common shares outstanding for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011:

	For The Three Months Ended June 30,						For The Six Months Ended June 30,
	2012			2011			2012			2011
Net loss	$	(91,956	)	$	(12,026	)	$	(157,295	)	$	(1,218	)
Basic weighted-average common shares outstanding		24,020,777			23,949,898			24,001,821			23,928,998
Effect of dilutive securities
Stock options and warrants		-			-			-			-
Diluted weighted-average common shares outstanding		24,020,777			23,949,898			24,001,821			23,928,998
Basic loss per share	$	-		$	-		$	(0.01	)	$	-
Diluted loss per share	$	-		$	-		$	(0.01	)	$	-

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, there were 1,855,803 of potential common stock equivalents from options and warrants that were not included in the computation of diluted loss per share because their effect would have been anti-dilutive. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, there were 2,175,344 of potential common stock equivalents from options and warrants that were not included in the computation of diluted loss per share because their effect would have been anti-dilutive.

NOTE 2 – INVESTMENTS

Investment in Equity Securities Available for Sale – As discussed further in Note 3, the Company was issued 50,000 shares of stock in Blackbird Corporation in July 2008. On June 7, 2010, Blackbird entered into a share exchange with RPID later renamed Spot Mobile International Ltd (“Spot Mobile”). The 50,000 shares of common stock of Blackbird were exchanged for 1,700,000 restricted shares of common stock of Spot Mobile. The Spot Mobile shares were reverse split in October 2010 to 56,667 shares. The Company recorded a $28,333 unrealized loss on the investment in Spot Mobile during the six months ended June 30, 2011. There was no unrealized gain or loss on the investment in Spot Mobile during the six months ended June 30, 2012.

Investments in equity securities as of June 30, 2012 are summarized below:

Equity Securities		Cost Basis				Unrealized Gains				Unrealized Losses				Fair Value
Spot Mobile		$	-			$	1,700			$	-			$	1,700

Investment in Real Property Tax Liens –Total purchases of real property tax liens through June 30, 2012 were $130,300. Through June 30, 2012, the Company collected $101,714 in tax lien settlements. The New Jersey municipal tax liens are receivable from the real property owners and are secured by a first priority lien on the related real property. Upon foreclosure, the Company would obtain ownership of the real property. The tax lien receivables accrue interest up to 18% per annum, accrue penalties at 2% to 6% per annum and are also increased by the amount of any collection expenses incurred. The investment in the real property tax liens are accounted for as an investment in troubled debts and are carried at cost. Collection of interest, penalties and expense reimbursements is not certain and is recognized upon being realized.

NOTE 3 - NOTE RECEIVABLE

On July 24, 2008, the Company loaned $500,000 to BlackBird Corporation (“BlackBird”) under the terms of a 10% senior secured convertible promissory note (the “Secured Note”). The Secured Note bore interest at 10% per annum, payable quarterly, and was due June 30, 2009. In addition, BlackBird issued 50,000 shares of its common stock to the Company. On the date of issuance, the fair value of BlackBird’s common stock was not determinable and the shares were valued at zero. BlackBird further agreed in July 2008, notwithstanding the terms of the note, if the loan was not repaid by January 1, 2009, interest on the note would accrue at 18% per annum starting January 1, 2009. The Secured Note was not paid by January 1, 2009 and it continued to accrue interest at 18% per annum. On April 1, 2011, the Company agreed to extend the due date of the Secured Note to June 30, 2011.

BlackBird did not pay its interest payment for the second quarter of 2011 in a timely fashion. On November 3, 2011, the Company entered into a forbearance agreement with BlackBird to reduce the interest rate on the Secured Note to 10% retroactive to April 1, 2011 and to not foreclose on BlackBird’s assets if BlackBird remains in compliance with the terms of the agreement. As part of this agreement, BlackBird agreed to pay all outstanding interest due on the loan through September 30, 2011 by November 11, 2011. BlackBird also agreed to make monthly interest payments within 10 days after the end of each month. The outstanding accrued interest of $25,609 as of September 30, 2011 was paid in full on November 10, 2011.

The concession granted to BlackBird on November 3, 2011 constituted a troubled debt restructuring under current accounting guidance. As a result, the note was classified as a long-term asset. Interest income under the terms of the Secured Note is no longer being recognized until the carrying value has been recovered, and payments received are recognized as a reduction of the carrying value of the note. After the receipt of the $25,069 payments during the six months ended June 30, 2012, the carrying value of the note receivable was $474,931 at June 30, 2012.

The note receivable was evaluated for impairment and the Company determined that it is likely that estimated future payments from BlackBird or the cash flows from BlackBird’s operations and the value of the underlying collateral is sufficient that upon foreclosure the Company would be able to realize the carrying value of the note. If BlackBird fails to comply with the terms of the agreement dated November 3, 2011, the Company plans on foreclosing on the underlying collateral to collect on the note. Therefore no impairment was recognized during the six months ended June 30, 2012.

Table of Contents

The note receivable is assessed for impairment on a quarterly basis. If projections were to indicate that the carrying value of the promissory note was not recoverable, the carrying value would be reduced by the estimated excess of the carrying value over the projected discounted cash flows. The evaluations are based on the estimated projected discounted cash flows from BlackBird and from the liquidation value of the underlying collateral.

Management has estimated that the fair value of the note receivable at June 30, 2012 was approximately $414,000.

NOTE 4 - FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Generally accepted accounting principles define fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. To measure fair value, a hierarchy has been established which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. This hierarchy uses three levels of inputs to measure the fair value of assets and liabilities as follows:

Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 – Observable inputs other than Level 1 including quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in less active markets, or other observable inputs that can be corroborated by observable market data.

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs supported by little or no market activity for financial instruments whose value is determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation.

The Company uses fair value to measure certain assets and liabilities on a recurring basis when fair value is the primary measure for accounting. Fair value is also used on a nonrecurring basis to measure certain assets when applying lower of cost or market accounting or when adjusting carrying values. Fair value is also used when evaluating impairment on certain assets, including goodwill, intangibles, and long-lived assets.

Following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for assets measured at fair value. There have been no changes in the methodologies used at June 30, 2012.

Investment in Equity Securities Available for Sale – The investment in equity securities available for sale is based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets.

The methods described above may produce a fair value calculation that may not be indicative of net realizable value or reflective of future fair values. Furthermore, while the Company believes its valuation methods are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different fair value measurement at the reporting date.

The following tables set forth by level, within the fair value hierarchy, the estimated fair values of the Company’s financial assets measured on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2012:

	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total
Investment in Equity Securities
Available for Sale	$	1,700	$	-	$	-	$	1,700

NOTE 5 - STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

During the six months ended June 30, 2012, the Company granted options to purchase 25,000 shares of common stock to an employee for services rendered. These options, which vested immediately, have an exercise price of $0.10 per share and are exercisable through February 22, 2017. These options were valued at approximately $0.08 per share, or $1,987, using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions: risk free interest rate of 1.41%, dividend yield of 0.0%, volatility of 111% and expected life of 5 years. No options to purchase shares of common stock were issued in 2011.

During the six months ended June 30, 2012, 13,643 options to purchase shares of common stock expired.

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

As used in this Form 10-Q, references to the "Company," "we," “our” or "us" refer to eRoomSystem Technologies, Inc. and subsidiaries, unless the context otherwise indicates.

This Management’s Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operations (“MD&A”) section of our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q discusses our results of operations, liquidity and financial condition, and certain factors that may affect our future results. You should read this MD&A in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in this Quarterly Report.

Forward-Looking Statements

This discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of various factors discussed elsewhere in this report.

Certain information included herein contains statements that may be considered forward-looking statements, such as statements relating to our anticipated revenues, and operating results, future performance and operations, plans for future expansion, capital spending, sources of liquidity and financing sources. Such forward-looking information involves important risks and uncertainties that could significantly affect anticipated results in the future, and accordingly, such results may differ from those expressed in any forward-looking statements made herein. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, those relating to our liquidity requirements, the continued growth of the lodging industry, the success of our product-development, marketing and sales activities, vigorous competition in the lodging industry, dependence on existing management, leverage and debt service (including sensitivity to fluctuations in interest rates), domestic or global economic conditions, the inherent uncertainty and costs of prolonged arbitration or litigation, and changes in federal or state tax laws or the administration of such laws.

Overview

Our core business is the development and installation of an intelligent, in-room computer platform and communications network, or the eRoomSystem, for the lodging industry. The eRoomSystem is a computerized platform and processor-based system designed to collect and control data. The eRoomSystem supports our fully automated and interactive eRoomServ refreshment centers, eRoomSafes, eRoomEnergy products, and the eRoomTray. In 2005, we commenced our diversification strategy of investing in third party emerging growth companies. In 2009, we purchased Kooltech refreshment centers that were installed in various hotels from CPC. We may make additional investments in promising emerging growth companies, and potentially acquire an operating company if the opportunity arises.

We are continuing to step-up our focus on the research and development of new products. Our new products incorporate cutting edge wireless technology utilizing micro-controllers that can detect information about products placed on our proprietary sensors. A cloud based system allows interaction with the data collected by the micro-controllers and sensors from any web enabled browser, which is collected by our current server software and utilized. There is no assurance that the products we are working on will be successfully completed or deployed.

Our existing products interface with the hotel's property management system through our eRoomSystem communications network. The hotel's property management system posts usage of our products directly to the hotel guest's room account. The solutions offered by our eRoomSystem and related products have allowed us to install our products and services in several premier hotel chains, including Marriott International, Hilton Hotels and Carlson Hospitality Worldwide, in the United States and internationally.

One of the byproducts of our technology is the information we have collected since our first product installation. To date, we have collected several million room-nights of data. Through our eRoomSystem, we are able to collect information regarding the usage of our products on a real-time basis. We use this information to help our customers increase their operating efficiencies.

On July 24, 2008, we provided a secured loan of $500,000 to BlackBird Corporation, a Florida corporation (“BlackBird”), an unrelated entity. The funding of the loan took place on completion of a transaction by BlackBird to acquire an unrelated company, USA Datanet Corporation. The acquisition took place on July 24, 2008. The loan is evidenced by a 10% senior secured convertible promissory note, made by BlackBird (the “Secured Note”). The Secured Note matured on June 30, 2009 and the interest rate increased to 18% annually as of January 1, 2009, with interest payable quarterly on the last business day of each quarter. An extension to the note was provided through June 30, 2011 at an interest rate of 18%. Blackbird is presently in default of its obligations under the note due to non-payment. In light of BlackBird’s inability to make payments as due, the Company agreed to lower the interest rate on the Secured Note to 10%. BlackBird is current with their interest payments as of August 13, 2012.

Results of Operations

Description of Revenues

Historically, we have received most of our revenues from the sale or placement under a revenue-sharing program of our products in hotels. More recently we have purchased minibars and baskets already placed in hotels and setup a turnkey solution at these hotels. In these hotels we receive most of the revenues for the product sold in the minibars and baskets. We provide 3-5% of revenues to some of the hotels. We expect that these revenues will account for a substantial majority of our revenues for the foreseeable future. We also generate revenues from maintenance and support services relating to our existing installed products.

Our dependence on the lodging industry, including its guests, makes us extremely vulnerable to downturns in the lodging industry caused by the general economic environment. Such a downturn could result in fewer purchases by hotel guests of goods and services from our products installed in hotels, and accordingly lower revenues where our products are placed pursuant to a turnkey agreement. Time spent by individuals on travel and leisure is often discretionary for consumers and may be particularly affected by adverse trends in the general economy. The success of our operations depends, in part, upon discretionary consumer spending and economic conditions affecting disposable consumer income such as employment, wages and salaries, business conditions, interest rates, and availability of credit and taxation.

We continuously explore opportunities and perform due diligence on third parties with respect to potential investments. At this time, we have not reached a definitive agreement to make further investments. In addition, we may acquire an operating company in the future if the opportunity arises. The timing and return on such investments, however, cannot be assured.

Revenue Recognition

Equipment sales revenue from our products is recognized upon completion of installation and acceptance by the customer. Sales revenue for product in the minibars that we sell under a turnkey solution is recognized upon completion of the sale.

We have entered into installation, maintenance and license agreements with most of our existing hotel customers. Installation, maintenance and license revenues are recognized as the services are performed or pro rata over the service period. We defer all revenue paid in advance relating to future services and products not yet installed and accepted by our customers.

Our installation, maintenance and license agreements stipulate that we collect a maintenance fee per eRoomServ refreshment center per day, payable on a monthly basis. Our objective is to generate gross profit margins of approximately 50% from our maintenance-related revenues. We base this objective on our historical cost of maintenance of approximately $0.04 per unit per day and, pursuant to our maintenance agreements, our projected receipt of generally not less than $0.08 per unit per day. There can be no assurance that such costs will not increase and that our objective will be met.

Description of Expenses

Cost of product sales consists primarily of cost of goods and labor as well as remaining basis on the sale of old refreshment centers. We capitalize the production, shipping, installation and sales commissions related to the eRoomServ refreshment centers, eRoomSafes, eRoomTrays and eRoomEnergy management products placed under revenue-sharing agreements. Cost of maintenance fee revenues primarily consists of expenses related to customer support and maintenance.

Selling, general and administrative expenses primarily consist of general and administrative expenses including professional fees, salaries and related costs for accounting, administration, finance, human resources, information systems and legal personnel.

Research and development expenses consist of payroll and related costs for hardware and software engineers, quality assurance specialists, management personnel, and the costs of materials used by our consultants in the maintenance of our existing installed products as well as research and development for new products. Research and development expenses in the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 were $86,685 and $47,235, respectively.

In accordance with generally accepted accounting principles development costs incurred in the research and development of new software products to be sold, leased or otherwise marketed are expensed as incurred until technological feasibility in the form of a working model has been established. Internally generated capitalizable software development costs have not been material to date. We have charged our software development costs to research and development expense in our condensed consolidated statements of operations.
