Organization
and Nature of Business
|
Newport
Telecommunications Co. (the “Company”), is a general partnership formed on
January 15, 1986 owned by Newport Associates Development Co. (“Newport
Assoc.”) and Newport Telecommunications, Inc. (“Telecommunications, Inc.”)
organized in the state of New Jersey. Both Newport Assoc. and
Telecommunications, Inc. are owned through various entities by Newport
Associates Development Company (“NADC”).
The
Company provides telephone and internet services primarily to residential
and small business customers located in section of Jersey City, New
Jersey
known as Newport.
|
2.
|
Summary
of Significant Accounting Policies
|
Revenue
Recognition
Revenues
consist of telephone and internet service revenues and customer equipment
revenues. Revenues are derived from tenants of buildings controlled
by
affiliates of the Company or other affiliated entities.
The
Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin
No. 104, Revenue
Recognition (“SAB104”), which superceded Staff Accounting Bulletin
No. 101, Revenue
Recognition in Financial Statements (“SAB101”). SAB 101 requires
that four basic criteria must be met before revenue can be recognized:
(1)
persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (2) delivery has occurred;
(3) the selling price is fixed and determinable; and (4) collectibility
is
reasonably assured. Determination of criteria (3) and (4) are based
on
management’s judgments regarding the fixed nature of the selling prices of
the products delivered and the collectibility of those
amounts.
The
Company accounts for revenue, costs and expense related to residential
cable services (including video, voice, data and other services)
as the
related services are performed in accordance with SFAS No. 51, “Financial
Reporting by Cable Television Companies.” Installation revenue for
residential cable services is recognized to the extent of direct
selling
costs incurred. Credit risk is managed by disconnecting services
to
customers who are delinquent.

|
Credit
Risk
Financial
instruments and related items which potentially subject the Company
to
concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash, cash equivalents
and trade receivables. The Company places its cash and temporary
cash
investments with credit quality institutions. At times, such investments
may be in excess of the FDIC insurance limit. The Company’s accounts
receivable potentially subject the Company to credit risk, as collateral
is generally not required. The Company’s risk of loss is limited due to
advance billings to customers for services and the ability to terminate
access on delinquent accounts. The potential for material credit
loss is
mitigated by the number of customers with relatively small receivable
balances. The carrying amounts of the Company’s receivables approximate
their fair values.
|
|||
Partners’
Compensation/Distributions
Partners
received no distributions, guaranteed payments or other salaries
or
compensation during the year ended December 31, 2006 and for the
six
months ended June 30, 2007.
|
|||
Depreciation
|
|||
Depreciation
is provided by the straight-line method over the estimated useful
lives of
the assets, principally five to seven years for building improvements
and
five to ten years for equipment.
|
|||
Long-Lived
Assets
|
|||
Pursuant
to SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for
the Impairment
or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets,” the recoverability of real
estate investments are evaluated whenever events or changes in
circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the equipment may
not be
recoverable. When such conditions exist, management performs an analysis
to determine if the estimated undiscounted future cash flows from
operations and the proceeds from the ultimate disposition of a property
exceed its carrying value. If the estimated undiscounted future cash
flows
are less than the carrying amount of a property, an adjustment to
reduce
the carrying amount to the property’s estimated fair market value is
recorded and an impairment loss is recognized. Through June 30, 2007,
no
impairment losses have been
recorded.

|
Income
Tax
No
income tax provision has been included in the financial statements
since
income or loss of the Partnership is required to be reported by the
respective partners on their income tax returns.
|
|||
Cash
Equivalents
|
|||
The
Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of
Six
Months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.
|
|||
Use
of Estimates
|
|||
The
preparation of financial statements requires 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
financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses
during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.

Contingencies:
Comcast
of Jersey City LLC has petitioned the City of Jersey City Board of
Public
Utilities (“BPU”) for access to certain buildings that currently receive
telephone and internet services from the Company. In prior years,
BPU has
adopted decisions granting such access to various buildings served
by the
Company. NADC has appealed these decisions, however, Comcast has
been a
second supplier of internet service in certain buildings since 2003.
In
March 2007, BPU in two separate decisions, granted Comast access
to two
additional buildings know as Pacific and Abraham
Lincoln.
|
|||
The
owners of other buildings served by the Company have received written
requests from Comcast for access to said buildings to construct and
install facilities to serve the residents therein.
The
Company is subject of other litigation in the normal course of business.
Management does not believe these matters will have a material effect
on
the financial position or results of
operations.

|
Subsequent
Events
|
On
July 18, 2007, the Company sold the operations and substantially all
of the assets of the Company for $2,550,000 to Microwave Satellite
Technologies, Inc. The total consideration paid in the Acquisition
was
$2,550,000, consisting of (i) 866,856 unregistered shares of
Telkonet, Inc. (a Parent Company of Microwave Satellite Technologies,
Inc.), equal to $1,530,000 (based on the average closing prices for
Telkonet Common Stock for the ten trading days immediately prior
to the
closing date), and (ii) $1,020,000 in cash, subject to adjustments.
The
total consideration will be increased or decreased depending on the
number
of subscriber accounts acquired in the Acquisition that were in good
standing at that time. The number will be determined within 120 days
of
the closing of the Acquisition. The stock certificates representing
the
Telkonet Common Stock, and $510,000 of the cash consideration were
paid to
U.S. Bank National Association, as escrow agent, to be released after
the
final determination of the number of subscriber accounts in good
standing
acquired in the Acquisition.
|
|
On
July 16, 2007, the Company entered into a Master Communications Access
and
Service Agreement relating to the buildings controlled by affiliates
of
the Company or other affiliated entities which expires or is otherwise
terminated in accordance with the terms of Conduit License and Right
to
Entry Agreement dated January 1,
2007.
