In the opinion of management, all adjustments consisting of normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair statement of (a) the financial position at June 30, 2004, (b) the results of operations for the three month and six month periods ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, and (c) cash flows for the six month periods ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, have been made.
The unaudited financial statements and notes are presented as permitted by Form 10-QSB. Accordingly, certain information and note disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been omitted. The accompanying financial statements and notes should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes of the Company for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2003. The results of operations for the three month and six month period ended June 30, 2004 are not necessarily indicative of those to be expected for the entire year.

The preceding pro forma results were calculated with the use of the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The following assumptions were used for the three month and the six month periods ended June 30, 2004 (1) risk-free interest rate of 2.80%, (2) no dividend yield, (3) expected lives of between 3.0 and 5.0 years and (4) volatility of between 45% and 85%. Results may vary depending on the assumptions applied within the model. Compensation expense recognized in providing pro forma disclosures may not be representative of the effects on net income for future years.
Use of Estimates
The Company prepares its consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These principles require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The Company reviews its estimates, including but not limited to, recoverability of long-lived assets, recoverability of prepaid expenses, valuation of investments and allowance for doubtful accounts, on a regular basis and makes adjustments based on historical experiences and existing and expected future conditions. These evaluations are performed and adjustments are made as information is available. Management believes that these estimates are reasonable; however, actual results could differ from these estimates.

1. Significant Accounting Principles -continued
Income Taxes
Taxes on income are provided in accordance with SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been reflected in the consolidated financial statements. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the book values and the tax bases of particular assets and liabilities and the tax effects of net operating loss and capital loss carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in the tax rate is recognized as income or expense in the period that included the enactment date. A valuation allowance is provided to offset the net deferred tax assets if, based upon the available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. There is no allowance recorded as of June 30, 2004 on any deferred tax assets.
Earnings Per Share
Earnings per common share are computed in accordance with SFAS No. 128, Earnings Per Share, which requires companies to present basic earnings per share and diluted earnings per share. Basic earnings per share are computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings per common share are computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding and dilutive options outstanding during the year.
Common stock equivalents in the three month and six month periods ended June 30, 2004 was anti-dilutive due to the net losses sustained by the Company during this period. Therefore, the diluted weighted average common shares outstanding in this period is the same as the basic weighted average common shares outstanding.
2. Obligations Due Under Factoring Arrangement
As of January 31, 2004 the Company terminated the factoring agreement and the obligation due under factoring arrangement was fully satisfied.

However, whether actual results or developments will conform with the Companys expectations and predictions is subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, general economic market and business conditions; the business opportunities (or lack thereof) that may be presented to and pursued by the Company; changes in laws or regulation; and other factors, most of which are beyond the control of the Company.
This Form 10-QSB contains statements that constitute forward-looking statements.

The increases in revenue primarily relate to (i) the three recent acquisitions (ii) expansion of the Chicago and Louisville terminal locations, (iii) a dedicated delivery services (DDS) contract to provide staging, processing, delivery and report integration from a regional cross-dock hub facility in Evansville, IN., (iv) cross-selling of expanded company services and points of service throughout the Companys client base, (v) selling of services under the new agency agreement with Temple Trucking Inc., (vi) increased ability to provide expedited service through increases in scheduled services within the Companys freight network and, (vii) general increases resulting from marketing efforts and brand awareness.
Costs of services provided, which consist primarily of payment for trucking services, fuel, insurance, cross dock facilities, equipment costs and payroll expenses increased by approximately $3,834,000, or 161%, to approximately $6,219,000 for the period ended June 30, 2004, as compared to approximately $2,385,000 for the period ended June 30, 2003. As a percentage of revenues cost of services amounted to approximately 82% of related revenues for the period ended June 30, 2004, as compared with approximately 72% for the period ended June 30, 2003. Increased costs of service for the second quarter result primarily from (i) lower freight volume growth than expected, (ii) rental equipment costs and repair costs, related to the short term needs to integrate our time scheduled operations and expedited
12
operating requirements, (iii) managements intentional delay in the total consolidation of operations and call center functions until the completion of expected acquisitions (iv) increased infrastructure costs related to expanded delivery network and (v) a significant increase in depreciation and amortization related to the recent acquisitions, which should reduce as we integrate equipment plans with operational consolidation. The Company anticipates a significant reduction in costs of service as we complete the integration of newly acquired companies, transformation of fleet to an owner operator model, managements reduction of fixed payroll, purchase transportation and equipment costs in line with current freight volumes and higher anticipated freight capacity from the expansion of geographical location through an agency agreement and internal growth.
General and administrative expense increased by approximately $1,231,000 or 172% to approximately $1,947,000 for the period ended June 30, 2004 as compared to approximately $716,000 for the period ended June 30, 2003. The increase of general and administrative expenses resulted primarily to (i) expansion of technology, equipment, personnel and infrastructure for increased sales and anticipated increases in the third and fourth quarter, (ii) expansion of facilities in several cities to allow us to meet significant opportunities, (iii) expenses directly related to integration of acquisitions, (iv) additional sales, marketing and branding efforts to introduce our expanded locations, service offerings and brands to our new and expanding client base (v) amortization of intangible assets and (vi) expenses related to prospective acquisitions. The Company had anticipated these increases in general and administrative costs in connection with acquisitions and internally generated growth and believes it will be able to reduce expenses compared to revenue as additional acquisitions are completed, integrated and synergies are capitalized upon.
The Company realized a loss from continuing operations before provisions for income taxes of approximately $609,000 for the period ended June 30, 2004, compared with income from continuing operations before provisions for income taxes of approximately $202,000 for the period ended June 30, 2003.
The income tax benefit was approximately $215,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2004 compared to an income tax provision of $58,800 for the three months ended June 30, 2003. Differences between the effective tax rate used for 2004 and 2003, as compared to the U.S. federal statutory rate, are primarily due to permanent differences and adjustments to the deferred tax asset valuation allowance.
Basic loss per share from continuing operations for the period ended June 30, 2004 was $.02, compared with basic earnings of $.02 for the period ended June 30, 2003. Diluted loss per share from continuing operations for the period ended June 30, 2004 was $.02, compared with diluted earnings per share of $.02 for the period ended June 30, 2003.
For the six months ended June 30, 2004 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2003.
Revenues increased approximately $7,981,000, or 129%, to approximately $14,189,000 for the period ended June 30, 2004, as compared to approximately $6,208,000 for the period ended June 30, 2003. The increases in revenue primarily relate to (i) the three recent acquisitions (ii) expansion of the Chicago and Louisville terminal locations, (iii) a dedicated delivery services (DDS) contract to provide staging, processing, delivery and report integration from a regional cross-dock hub facility in Evansville, IN., (iv) cross-selling of expanded company services and points of service throughout the Companys client base, (v) selling of services under the new agency agreement with Temple Trucking Inc., (vi) increased ability to provide expedited service through increases in scheduled services within the Companys freight network and, (vii) general increases resulting from marketing efforts and brand awareness.
Costs of services provided, which consist primarily of payment for trucking services, fuel, insurance, cross dock facilities, equipment costs and payroll expenses increased by approximately $7,114,000, or 155%, to approximately $11,690,000 for the period ended June 30, 2004, as compared to approximately $4,576,000 for the period ended June 30, 2003. As a percentage of revenues cost of services amounted to approximately 82% of related revenues for the period ended June 30, 2004, as compared with approximately 74% for the period ended June 30, 2003. Increased costs of service for the six-month period resulted primarily from (i)
13
lower freight volume in accordance with historical results and a lower growth rate than expected, (ii) rental equipment costs and repair costs, related to the short term needs to integrate our time scheduled operations and expedited operating requirements, (iii) managements intentional delay in the total consolidation of operations and administrative function until the completion of expected acquisitions and (iv) a significant increase in depreciation and amortization related to the recent acquisitions, which should reduce as we integrate equipment plans with operational consolidation. The Company anticipates a significant reduction in costs of service as we complete the integration of newly acquired companies, transformation of fleet to an owner operator model, managements reduction of fixed payroll, purchase transportation and equipment costs in line with current freight volumes and higher anticipated freight capacity from the expansion of geographical location through an agency agreement and internal growth.
General and administrative expense increased by approximately $2,431,000 or 199% to approximately $3,650,000 for the period ended June 30, 2004 as compared to approximately $1,219,000 for the period ended June 30, 2003. The increase of general and administrative expenses resulted primarily to (i) expansion of technology, equipment, personnel and infrastructure for increased sales, (ii) expansion of facilities in several cities to allow us to meet significant opportunities, (iii) expenses directly related to integration of acquisitions, (iv) additional sales, marketing and branding efforts to introduce our expanded locations, service offerings and brands to our new and expanding client base and (v) expenses related to prospective acquisitions. The Company had anticipated these increases in general and administrative costs in connection with acquisitions and internally generated growth and believes it will be able to reduce expenses compared to revenue as additional acquisitions are completed, integrated and synergies are capitalized upon.
The Company realized a loss from continuing operations before provisions for income taxes of approximately $1,233,000 for the period ended June 30, 2004, compared with income from continuing operations before provisions for income taxes of approximately $386,000 for the period ended June 30, 2003.
The income tax benefit was approximately $435,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2004 compared to a provision of $112,300 for the six months ended June 30, 2003. Differences between the effective tax rate used for 2004 and 2003, as compared to the U.S. federal statutory rate, are primarily due to permanent differences and adjustments to the deferred tax asset valuation allowance.
Basic loss per share from continuing operations for the period ended June 30, 2004 was $.04, compared with basic earnings of $.04 for the period ended June 30, 2003. Diluted loss per share from continuing operations for the period ended June 30, 2004 was $.04, compared with diluted earnings per share of $.03 for the period ended June 30, 2003.
Critical Accounting Policies
Principals of Consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and all of its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.
Operating Revenues
Operating revenues for transportation services are recognized on the date the freight is delivered. Related costs of delivery of shipments in transit are accrued as incurred. Revenues from warehousing and other services are recognized as the services are performed.
Accounts Receivable
The Company extends credit to its various customers based on evaluation of the customers financial condition and ability to pay the Company in accordance with the payment terms. The Company provides for estimated losses on accounts receivable considering a number of factors, including the overall aging of accounts
14
receivables, customers payment history and the customers current ability to pay its obligation. Based on managements review of accounts receivable and other receivables, an allowance for doubtful accounts of approximately $1,001,000 as of June 30, 2004 is deemed adequate. Although Management believes that account receivables are recorded at their net realizable value, a 10% decline in historical collection rate would increase the current bad debt expense by approximately $70,000. The Company does not accrue interest on past due receivables.
Use of Estimates
The Company prepares its consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These principles require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The Company reviews its estimates, including but not limited to, recoverability of long-lived assets, recoverability of prepaid expenses, valuation of investments and allowance for doubtful accounts, on a regular basis and makes adjustments based on historical experiences and existing and expected future conditions. These evaluations are performed and adjustments are made as information is available. Management believes that these estimates are reasonable; however, actual results could differ from these estimates.
Contingent Liabilities
The Company is party to a number of legal actions, which are not material to operations pursuant to Item 301 of Regulation S-B.
EBITDA
EBITDA for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2004 was approximately $(309,000) and $(622,000) compared to approximately $233,000 and $449,000 in the comparable period of the prior year, respectively. The Company defines EBITDA as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization costs. The Company also excludes the cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle, discontinued operations, and the impact of restructuring and other charges from the computation. The Company believes EBITDA is a useful measure of operating performance before the impact of investing and financing transactions, making comparisons between companies earnings power more meaningful and providing consistent comparisons of the Companys performance. In order to provide consistent comparisons of year-over-year EBITDA, the following reconciliation is provided.

USE OF GAAP AND NON-GAAP MEASURES
In addition to results presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), the Company has included in this report earnings EBITDA with EBITDA being defined by the Company as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. The Company also excludes the cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle, discontinued operations, and the impact of restructuring and other charges from the computation of EBITDA. For each non-GAAP financial measure, the Company has presented the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure and has reconciled the non-GAAP financial measure with such comparable GAAP financial measure.
These non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors to assist in understanding the underlying operational performance of the Company. Specifically, EBITDA is useful measures of operating performance before the impact of investing and financing transactions, making comparisons between companies earnings power more meaningful and providing consistent period-over-period comparisons of the Companys performance. In addition, the Company uses these non-GAAP financial measures internally to measure its on-going business performance and in reports to bankers to permit monitoring of the Companys ability to pay outstanding liabilities.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of June 30, 2004 the Company has approximately $14,000,000 of working capital and has cash and cash equivalents of approximately $9,240,000, compared with approximately $4,000 of cash and cash equivalents at June 30, 2003. This increase was primarily a result of the Companys capital transactions during the year ended December 31, 2003 and the six months ended June 30, 2004.
During the six months ended June 30, 2004 cash has increased by approximately $7,200,000. During the six month period ended June 30, 2004 the approximate $11,400,000 of proceeds from issuance of equity was primarily decreased by: (i) the elimination of approximately $1,700,000 of debt; (ii) the net operating loss before tax of approximately $1,200,000; (iii) a $750,000 decrease in accounts payables; and (iv) a $500,000 increase in accounts receivable.
In January of 2004, the Company received approximately $1,737,500 in gross proceeds from a private placement offering of the Companys stock that was made in accordance with exemption under Regulation D, Rule 506 of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1933, as amended, in which the Company sold approximately 400,000 units to accredited investors at a price of $2.00 per unit, each unit consisting of two shares of common stock and one warrant to purchase a share of common stock of the Company at an exercise price of $1.50 per share, and two investor exercised purchase rights under the terms of options issued in connection with this placement, buying 625,000 shares for $1.50 per share.
In March 2002, the Company issued 350,000 warrants to purchase common stock in the Company for between $1.01 and $1.15 in connection with a term note that has been repaid. In February of 2004 the company received approximately $367,500 related to these warrants being exercised.
In January of 2004, the Company entered into a term credit facility with Merrill Lynch Business Financial Services (MLBFS) with a stated credit limit of $1.75 million. This facility is a revolving facility that provides for advances against the Companys eligible accounts receivable balances. The facility bears interest at London InterBank Over the Counter Rate (LIBOR) plus 275 basis points. The LIBOR rate at June 30, 2004 was 1.36%. As of June 30, 2004, the Company had approximately $1,750,000 available under this credit facility.
In April 2004, the Company received approximately $10,672,500 in gross proceeds from a private placement offering of the Companys stock that was made in accordance with exemption under regulation D, Rule 506 of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1933, as amended, in which the Company sold 6,098,571 units to accredited investors (each of which was a qualified institutional buyer) at a price of $1.75 per unit, each unit consisting of one share of common stock and two tenths of a warrant to purchase a share of common stock for an exercise price of $2.20 per share. The Company incurred offering costs of approximately $1,250,000.
16
The Company incurred total offering costs of approximately $1,420,000 during the six month period ended June 30, 2004.
The Company may receive proceeds in the future from the exercise of warrants and options outstanding as of June 30, 2004 in accordance with the following schedule:

The Company has embarked on upgrades to technology and support infrastructure that it believes will enhance cash flows by providing customers and customer service representatives with access to delivery information and documentation that will enable efficient collections of accounts receivable from customers. There is no assurance that we will be able to obtain financing on terms favorable to the Company or successfully implement infrastructure upgrades pursuant to our plans.
Our strategy is to continue to expand through acquisitions and internal development. We intend to seek, on a selective basis, acquisition of businesses that have product lines or services which complement and expand our existing services and product lines, and provide us with strategic distribution locations or attractive customer bases. Our ability to implement our growth will depend on a number of things, which may be beyond our control. Successful deployment of this strategy will be dependent on our ability to identify, consummate and assimilate such acquisitions on desirable economic terms. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in implementing our growth strategy. Our ability to implement our growth strategy will also be dependent upon obtaining adequate financing. We may not be able to obtain financing on favorable terms.
Item 3. Controls and Procedures.
Definition of Controls
Management of the Company, including the Companys Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has designed, or caused to be designed, and maintained disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 (the Disclosure Controls and Procedures), to reasonably assure that material information is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the SECs rules and forms and to reasonably assure that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Companys Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, in a timely manner to allow for appropriate decisions regarding required disclosures. Management has also designed internal controls, including internal controls over financial reporting (the Internal Controls), to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of the Companys financial reporting and the preparation of the Companys financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP).
17
Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls
As more fully discussed in the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) auditing standards pronouncement Consideration Of Internal Control in a Financial Statement Audit, AU Section 319, paragraphs .21 to .24, an internal control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control objectives will be met. Limitations inherent in any system of internal controls might include, among other things, (i) faulty human judgment and simple errors or mistakes, (ii) collusion of two or more people or inappropriate management override of procedures, (iii) imprecision in estimating and judging cost-benefit relationships in designing controls and (iv) reductions in the effectiveness of one deterring component (such as a strong cultural and governance environment) by a conflicting component (such as may be found in certain management incentive plans). Because of such inherent limitations in any system of internal controls, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all weaknesses or instances of fraud, if any, have been detected.
The Company, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, believes that the aforementioned limitations apply to any applicable system of internal controls, including the Disclosure Controls and Procedures and Internal Controls. The Company will continue the process of identifying and implementing corrective actions where required to improve the effectiveness of its Disclosure Controls and Procedures and Internal Controls. Significant supplemental resources may continue to be required to prepare the required financial and other information during this ongoing process.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The Companys Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer are responsible for designing, establishing, maintaining and reviewing the Companys Disclosure Controls and Procedures. As of the end of the period covered by this report, the Companys Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer evaluated the Companys Disclosure Controls and Procedures. The Companys Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded, subject to the limitations noted above, that the Disclosure Controls and Procedures are effective based on such evaluation.
Changes in Internal Controls
There were no significant changes in the Companys Internal Controls or in other factors that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to affect, Internal Controls over financial reporting during the most recent fiscal quarter.
