You can identify these statements by forward-looking words such as “may,” “will,” “expect,” “intend,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” and “continue” or similar words. Forward-looking statements include information concerning possible or assumed future business success or financial results.

We believe that it is important to communicate future expectations to investors. However, there may be events in the future that we are not able to accurately predict or control. We do not undertake any obligation to update any forward-looking statements for any reason, even if new information becomes available or other events occur in the future.
The forward-looking statements contained herein are based on current expectations that involve a number of risks and uncertainties including those set forth under “Risk Factors” in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, and any other periodic reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, to the extent that this Quarterly Report contains forward-looking statements regarding the financial condition, operating results, business prospects or any other aspect of the Company, please be advised that the Company’s actual financial condition, operating results and business performance may differ materially from that projected or estimated by the Company in its forward-looking statements.

Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements
Note 1 — Nature of Business (continued)
Background/Name Change/Redomestication
Brookside Technology Holdings Corporation was originally incorporated in Texas in September 2005 under the name Cruisestock, Inc., (“Cruisestock”). Brookside Technology Partners, Inc., a Texas Corporation (“BTP”), was incorporated and began operations in the State of Texas. BTP completed a reverse merger transaction on February 21, 2007 with Cruisestock, a public “shell company”. On February 21, 2007, Brookside Technology Holdings Corporation (formerly known as “Cruisestock”), acquired all the outstanding shares of BTP in a reverse merger (the “Merger”). Effective with the merger, the directors and management of BTP thereupon became the directors and management of Brookside Technology Holdings Corporation. BTP has been considered the acquirer in this transaction, accounted for as a recapitalization. The business of BTP is now the sole business of the Company. BTP remains a wholly-owned subsidiary of Brookside Technology Holdings Corporation.
Redomestication
On July 6, 2007, Cruisestock changed its name to Brookside Technology Holdings Corp. and redomesticated in Florida. The name change and redomestication were accomplished by merging Cruisestock into a newly-formed, Florida wholly-owned subsidiary, with the subsidiary being the surviving entity (the “Redomestication”).
The Company’s common stock is quoted on the NASDAQ Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board (OTCBB) under the symbol: “BKSD”.
US Voice & Data, LLC
The Company has a wholly-owned subsidiary, US Voice & Data, LLC, an Indiana Limited Liability Company (“USVD”). USVD, headquartered in Louisville, Kentucky, with offices in Lexington, Kentucky and Indianapolis, Indiana, is a leading regional provider of telecommunication services, including planning, design, installation and maintenance for converged voice and data systems.
Acquisition of Standard Tel Networks, LLC
On September 23, 2008, the Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Standard Tel Acquisitions, Inc. (“Acquisition Sub”), acquired Standard Tel Networks, LLC (“STN”), an independent distributor of high quality, turnkey converged voice and data business communications products and services headquartered in Huntington Beach, CA, and having other California offices in the San Francisco Bay Area, Sacramento, and San Diego. This acquisition was structured as the acquisition of (a) all of the stock of Trans-West Network Solutions, Inc. (“Trans-West”) from the shareholders of Trans-West (the “Trans-West Shareholders”) and (b) all of the membership interest of STN owned by ProLogic Communication, Inc. (“ProLogic” and collectively with the Trans-West Shareholders, the “Seller Parties”). Trans-West, a holding company with no operations, owned eighty percent (80%) of the membership interest of STN and ProLogic owned the other twenty percent (20%), and, accordingly, the Company now controls one hundred percent (100%) of STN. Collectively, the forgoing transactions are referred to in these financial statements as the “STN Acquisition.” Prior to the STN Acquisition, the Company did not have any relationships with the Seller Parties.
Operating results from the acquired business, STN, is included in the condensed consolidated statements of operations from the date of acquisition (September 23, 2008). Accordingly, the first quarter of 2008 has no operation activity related to STN.

Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements
Note 2 — Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company completed the STN acquisition on September 23, 2008. As part of the acquisition, the Company was able to rearrange its debt and equity and obtain more favorable terms. The Company has a $2,000,000 line of credit with $250,000 outstanding and cash and cash equivalents of $1,033,141 at March 31, 2009. The Company is in default in its debt which will limit the Company’s ability to borrow under its line of credit. The Company sustained a loss for the three months ended March 31, 2009 of approximately $1.3 million, sustained losses in 2008 and 2007 and has a retained deficit of approximately $18.4 million. These losses were primarily due to the amortization expense related to the accounting treatment of warrants issued in connection with the debt raised to fund the USVD acquisition. For the three months ended March 31, 2009, the Company had net cash used in operations of $59,417. Historically, the Company has relied on borrowings and equity financings to maintain its operations. The Company believes it has enough cash to operate for the coming year with its cash on hand, cash to be generated from operations and the borrowing availability on its credit lines. However, the recent economic downturn could have a material effect on its business operations.
The Company is in discussions with its senior lender to obtain a waiver of the default as well as in discussions with its senior and subordinated lender regarding obtaining additional financing.
Note 3 — Significant Accounting Policies
The accounting and reporting policies of the Company conform to U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and to the practices within the telecommunications industry. There have been no significant changes in the Company’s significant accounting policies during the three months ended March 31, 2009 compared to what was previously disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Brookside Technology Holdings Corp. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, certain of which are Brookside Technology Partners, Inc., US Voice & Data, LLC, an Indiana Limited Liability Company, Standard Tel Acquisitions, Inc a California Corporation, Trans-West Network Solutions, Inc, a California Corporation and Standard Tel Networks, LLC, a California Limited Liability Company. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Cash Equivalents
For purposes of the statements of cash flows, the Company considers short-term investments, which may be withdrawn at any time without penalty, and restricted cash, which will become available within one year from the date of the consolidated condensed financial statements, to be cash equivalents.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated condensed 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 at the date of the consolidated condensed financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.

Note 3 — Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Financial Instruments and Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to credit risk include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and unbilled receivables from customers. Cash is deposited in demand accounts in federally insured domestic institutions to minimize risk. Accounts receivable and unbilled receivables are generally unsecured. With respect to accounts receivable and unbilled receivables, the Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of customers and generally does not require collateral.
Receivables are concentrated with a small number of customers. The Company maintains reserves for potential credit losses on customer accounts when deemed necessary. There were no allowances for credit losses at March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008.
The amounts reported for cash and cash equivalents, receivables, accounts payable, and accrued liabilities are considered to approximate their market values based on comparable market information available at the respective balance sheet dates and their short-term nature. The Company believes that the notes payable fair values approximate their notional value at March 31, 2009.
Convertible Securities With Beneficial Conversion Features
Under EITF No. 00-27, Application of EITF Issue No. 98-5, ‘Accounting for Convertible Securities with Beneficial Conversion Features or Contingently Adjustable Conversion Rates’, to Certain Convertible Instruments,the Company considered the effect of a beneficial conversion feature of the Series A Stock issued in the December 2007 private placement and subsequently issued to Vicis during 2008. During 2008, the Company has attributed a beneficial conversion feature of $1,983,607 to the Series A Stock based upon the difference between the relative fair value assigned to costs in Series A Stock and the discount assigned to the warrants and zero (minimum basis). The amount attributable to the beneficial conversion feature has been recorded as a dividend to the holders of the Series A Stock during the year ended December 31, 2008. Since the redemption requirement of the Series A Stock is contingent on the occurrence of future events, the Company is not accreting the carrying value of the Series A Stock to redemption value and will not do so until the occurrence of any one of those future events becomes probable.
The Company’s Series A Stock is redeemable under certain conditions, including:
     The Company effecting a merger or consolidation with another entity

Note 3 — Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Goodwill and Intangibles
Goodwill represents the acquisition costs in excess of the fair value of net tangible and intangible assets of the businesses purchased. This premium paid for the acquisitions is based on management’s belief that the acquired technologies, businesses and engineering talent were of strategic importance in the Company’s growth strategy. Intangible assets consist primarily of the value of intellectual property, customer relationships, non-compete agreements, trademarks and goodwill. Goodwill is evaluated annually for impairment, or earlier if indications of impairment exist. The determination as to whether or not goodwill or other intangible assets have become impaired involves a significant level of judgment in the assumptions underlying the approach used to determine the value of the reporting units. Changes in operating strategy and market conditions could significantly impact these judgments and require adjustments to recorded amounts of intangible assets.
The Company has adopted a policy to review goodwill and indefinite-lived intangibles for impairment using a discounted cash flow approach that uses forward-looking information regarding market share, revenues and costs for the reporting unit as well as appropriate discount rates. As a result, changes in these assumptions could materially change the outcome of the reporting unit’s fair value determination in future periods, which could require a further permanent write-down of goodwill.
Revenue Recognition
The Company derives its revenues primarily from sales of converged VoIP telecommunications equipment and professional services implementation/installation, data and wireless equipment and installation, recurring maintenance/managed service and network service agreements and other services. The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101, “Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements” (“SAB 101”), as amended by SAB No. 104 “Revenue Recognition, Corrected Copy” (“SAB 104”). Under SAB 101 and SAB 104, revenue is recognized when there is persuasive evidence of an arrangement, delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, the sales price is determinable, and collectibility is reasonably assured. Sales are recorded net of discounts, rebates, and returns.
The Company primarily applies the percentage-of-completion method and generally recognizes revenue based on the relationship of total costs incurred to total projected costs. Profits expected to be realized on such contracts are based on total estimated sales for the contract compared to total estimated costs, including warranty costs, at completion of the contract. These estimates are reviewed and revised periodically throughout the lives of the contracts, and adjustments to profits resulting from such revisions are made cumulative to the date of the change. Provision for anticipated losses on uncompleted contracts is made in the period in which such losses become evident.
Revenue from contracts that contain multiple elements that are not accounted for under the percentage-of-completion method are accounted for in accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) Issue No. 00-21, “Accounting for Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables.” Revenue from these contracts is allocated to each respective element based on each element’s relative fair value, if determinable, and is recognized when the respective revenue recognition criteria for each element are fulfilled. The Company recognizes revenue from the equipment sales and installation services using the percentage of completion method. The services for maintaining the systems the Company installs are sold as a stand-alone contract and treated according to the terms of the contractual arrangements then in effect. Revenue from this service is generally recognized over the term of the subscription period or the terms of the contractual arrangements then in effect. A majority of equipment sales and installation services revenues are billed in advance on a monthly basis based upon the fixed price, and are included both accounts receivable and deferred income on the accompanying balance sheets. Direct costs incurred on such contracts are deferred until the related revenue is recognized and are included in deferred contract costs on the accompanying balance sheets. The Company also provides professional services (maintenance/managed services) on a fixed price basis. These services are billed as bundles and or upon completion of the services.

Note 3 — Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Warranty Reserves
Reserves are provided for estimated warranty costs when revenue is recognized. The costs of warranty obligations are estimated based on warranty policy or applicable contractual warranty, historical experience of known product failure rates and use of materials and service delivery charges incurred in correcting product failures. Specific warranty accruals may be made if unforeseen technical problems arise. If actual experience, relative to these factors, adversely differs from these estimates, additional warranty expense may be required. At March 31, 2009 and 2008, the Company has accrued $244,646 and $0, respectively. The Company’s warranty accrual takes into account the telecommunications equipment covered by original equipment manufacturer warranties. Prior to December 31, 2008, warranty costs not covered by the original equipment manufacturer warranty were not considered material to the consolidated financial statements.
Advertising
The Company recognizes advertising expenses as incurred.
Reclassifications
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the 2009 presentation.
Income taxes
Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Accordingly, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. 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 be recovered or settled. In estimating future tax consequences, the Company generally considers all expected future events other than enactments of changes in tax laws or rates. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized as income or expense in the period that includes the enactment date.
The Company records a valuation allowance to reduce its deferred assets when it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will expire before realization of the benefit or that future deductibility is not probable. The ultimate realization of the deferred tax assets depends on the Company’s ability to generate sufficient future taxable income. Accordingly, establishment of the valuation allowance requires the Company’s management to use estimates and make assumptions regarding significant future events.
The Company evaluates its tax positions under FASB Interpretation No. 48 (“FIN 48”), Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes. Accordingly, the Company’s management first determines whether it is more likely than not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination based on the technical merits of the position. Any tax position that meets the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold is measured to determine the amount of benefit to recognize in the consolidated condensed financial statements. Each identified tax position is measured at the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50 percent likely of being realized upon settlement. No such tax positions were identified during the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008.

Earnings Per Common Share
Basic and diluted net income per common share is presented in conformity with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, Earnings Per Share (SFAS 128) for all periods presented. Basic earnings per share is based on the weighted effect of all common shares issued and outstanding, and is calculated by dividing net loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing net loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares used in the basic earnings per share calculation plus the number of common shares that would be issued assuming conversion of all potentially dilutive common shares outstanding.
At March 31, 2009, there were potentially dilutive securities outstanding consisting of Series A Stock, warrants, and stock options issued to employees. The potential shares would be anti-dilutive during the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, and as such, have not been considered in the calculation of earnings per share. At March 31, 2009, the number of potentially dilutive shares that are anti-dilutive consisted of 19,200,000 stock option shares, 12,216,716 Series A Stock (exercisable into 407,223,867 common shares), and 544,440,793 common shares purchase warrants (which would be net share settled). At March 31, 2008, there were potentially dilutive securities outstanding consisting of Series A Stock, convertible debt, warrants, and stock options issued to employees of 14,000,000.
Stock Based Compensation
The Company recognizes the compensation cost relating to share-based payment transactions in accordance with provisions of SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004), Share-Based Payment. The cost is measured at the grant date, based on the calculated fair value of the award, and is recognized as an expense over the employee’s requisite service period (generally the vesting period of the equity award). The Company recorded $16,944 and $0 for stock compensation cost for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In February 2008, the FASB issued FSP FAS 157-2, “Effective Date of FASB Statement No 157” (FAP FAS 157-2). FSP FAS 157-2 delayed the effective date for SFAS 157 for certain non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities, including goodwill and other intangible assets. The Company’s adoption of FSP FAS 157-2 in first quarter 2009 did not have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS 141(R), “Business Combinations”, and SFAS 160, “Non-controlling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements”, which affect the accounting for business combinations and the reporting of non-controlling interests in consolidated financial statements. These statements became effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and will principally affect the Company’s accounting relating to future acquisitions. The Company’s adoption of these statements in first quarter 2009 did not have any effect on its consolidated financial statements.
In April 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position No. 142-3, “Determination of the Useful Life of Intangible Assets” (FSP 142-3). FSP 142-3 amends the factors to be considered in developing renewal or extension assumptions used to determine the useful life of intangible assets under SFAS No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.” The intent of FSP 142-3 is to improve the consistency between the useful life of an intangible asset and the period of expected cash flows used to measure its fair value. FSP 142-3 was effective for first quarter 2009. The Company does not expect FSP 142-3 to have a material impact on the accounting for future acquisitions or renewals of intangible assets, but the potential impact is dependent upon the acquisitions of intangible assets in the future.
In April 2009, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position No. 157-4, “Determining Fair Value When the Volume and Level of Activity for the Asset or Liability Have Significantly Decreased and Identifying Transactions That Are Not Orderly” (FSP 157-4). FSP 157-4 provides guidance on (1) estimating the fair value of an asset or liability when the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability have significantly decreased and (2) identifying transactions that are not orderly. FSP 157-4 is effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2009. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of FSP 157-4, but does not expect it to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In April 2009, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position No. 107-1 and APB 28-1, “Interim Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments” (FSP 107-1). FSP 107-1 requires disclosures about the fair value of financial instruments in interim reporting periods of publicly traded companies as well as in annual financial statements. FSP 107-1 is effective for interim periods ending after June 15, 2009. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of FSP 107-1, but does not expect it to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB (including its Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”), the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (“AICPA”), and the SEC did not or are not believed by management to have a material impact on the Company’s present consolidated financial statements.

The Company has warrants, common stock options and Series A Stock that could potentially convert to 1,111,085,033 shares of common stock. Currently, the Company has 1,000,000,000 shares authorized. EITF 00-19: Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to, and Potentially Settled in, a Company’s Own Stock addresses issues relating to financial instruments that must be settled in with the Company’s common stock. In some circumstances if the Company does not have enough authorized shares, outstanding common stock warrants could be classified as liabilities. The Company has classified all warrants as permanent equity since the number of authorized shares is within the Company’s control. The Company can settle all convertible securities by settlement (including net share settlement) within the currently authorized shares. The Company’s Board of Directors may implement a reverse stock split or increase the number of authorized shares. This would require approval of the shareholders of the Company who own a majority of the outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock, and Series A Stock, voting as a single class on a converted basis.

Note 16 — Subsequent Events
The Chatham Credit Agreement contains standard representations, warranties and covenants that require the Company, on a consolidated basis, to maintain at the end of each month: (1) a fixed charge coverage ratio for the 12 months then ended of at least 1.75:1; and (2) a leverage ratio as of the last day of such fiscal month and for the 12 months then ended of not more than 3:1, in each case calculated as set forth in the Credit Agreement. The Company is not in compliance with the leverage ratio nor the fixed charge coverage ratio as of March 31, 2009 and the subsequent reporting period ending April 30, 2009. In accordance with terms of the Chatham Senior Loan credit facility, the Company can only borrow up to three times its trailing twelve months EBITDA, calculated monthly. The Company is in discussions with Chatham to obtain a waiver of the default, as well as discussions with Chatham and Vicis regarding liquidity needs.
In a letter dated May 12, 2009, Michael Fischer and Scott Diamond, the CEO and COO of U.S. Voice and Data, one of the Company’s subsidiaries, informed the Company that it is their position that the Company’s alleged failure to pay to them approximately $280,000 on or before April 30, 2009, which they claim was due to them pursuant to the membership purchase agreement between them and the Company, constitutes a constructive termination of their employment agreements, giving rise to certain rights under their employment agreements, the membership purchase agreement and other related agreements. The Company is assessing its rights and remedies in light of this letter. The Company will continue the operations of U.S. Voice and Data in a consistent manner that is seamless to its employees, vendors and customers.

The information presented in this section should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and related notes for the periods ended December 31, 2008 and 2007 included in our Form 10-K, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, as well as the information contained in the consolidated financial statements, including the notes thereto, appearing in this report. This discussion contains forward-looking statements reflecting our current expectations that involve risks and uncertainties. Actual results and the timing of events may differ materially from those contained in these forward-looking statements due to a number of factors, including those discussed in the section entitled “Risk Factors” of our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008, and elsewhere in this report.
General
Organizational History and Operations
We are the holding company for Brookside Technology Partners, Inc, a Texas corporation (“Brookside Technology Partners”), US Voice & Data, LLC, an Indiana Limited Liability Company (“USVD”), Standard Tel Acquisitions, Inc., a California Corporation (“Acquisition Sub”), Trans-West Network Solutions, Inc., (“Trans-West”), a California Corporation and Standard Tel Networks, LLC, a California Limited Liability Company (“STN”) and all operations are conducted through these (five) wholly owned subsidiaries.
Collectively, the subsidiary companies are providers of converged business communications products and services from Mitel, Inter-tel (owned by Mitel), Nortel and NEC. The Company, is the 2nd largest MITEL dealer in the United States, and is recognized by Mitel as a Diamond Dealer. The Company combines technical expertise in a range of communications products, including IP-enabled platforms, wired and wireless IP and digital endpoints and leading edge communications applications to create converged voice, video and data networks that help businesses increase efficiency and optimize revenue opportunities, critical for success in today’s competitive business environment. Specializing in selling, designing, analyzing and implementing converged Voice over IP (VoIP), data and wireless business communications systems and solutions for commercial and state/government organizations of all types and sizes in the United States, the Company has offices that provide a national footprint. Headquartered in Huntington Beach, California, STN has offices in the San Francisco Bay Area, Sacramento, and San Diego. Headquartered in Austin, Texas, Brookside Technology Partners serves the Texas market. Headquartered in Louisville, Kentucky, USVD serves the Kentucky and Southern Indiana markets, operating out of offices in Louisville, Lexington and Indianapolis. Combined, new implementations represent approximately 50% of the Company’s revenues with the remaining 50% generated by service, support, maintenance and other recurring revenues from our existing customer base.
Background/Name Change/Redomestication
Cruisestock, Inc, (“Cruisestock”) was incorporated in September 2005 under the laws of the State of Texas. Immediately prior to February 21, 2007, it was a shell corporation with no significant operations or assets. On February 21, 2007, Cruisestock acquired all of the stock of Brookside Technology Partners, a Texas corporation, in a transaction where the shareholders of Brookside Technology Partners exchanged all of their shares for shares of common stock of Cruisestock (the “Share Exchange”). As a result, Brookside Technology Partners became a wholly owned subsidiary of Cruisestock. However, from an accounting perspective, Brookside Technology Partners was the acquirer in the Share Exchange.
Subsequent to the Share Exchange, on July 6, 2007 (the “Effective Time”), Cruisestock changed its name to Brookside Technology Holdings Corp. and redomesticated in Florida. The name change and redomestication were accomplished by merging Cruisestock into a newly-formed, Florida wholly-owned subsidiary, with the subsidiary being the surviving entity (the “Redomestication”).
The Company’s common stock is quoted on the Over the Counter Bulletin Board (OTCBB) under the symbol: BKSD.

Acquisition of USVD
On September 26, 2007, the Company acquired all of the membership interest of US Voice & Data, LLC, an Indiana Limited Liability Company (“USVD”). USVD, headquartered in Louisville, Kentucky, with offices in Lexington, Kentucky and Indianapolis, Indiana, is a leading regional provider of telecommunication services, including planning, design, installation and maintenance for converged voice and data systems.
Increase in Authorized Shares
On August 4, 2008, the Company filed Articles of Amendment to its Articles of Incorporation (the “Amendment”) with the Florida Department of State increasing the number of shares of common stock that the Company has the authority to issue from Two Hundred and Fifty Million (250,000,000) shares to One Billion (1,000,000,000) shares.
Vicis Equity Infusion
On July 3, 2008, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Vicis Agreement”) with Vicis Capital Master Fund, a sub-trust of Vicis Capital Series Master Trust (“Vicis”), pursuant to which Vicis acquired (a) 2,500,000 shares of Series A Stock; and (b) a warrant (the “Warrant”) to purchase 250,000,000 shares of common stock of the Company at $0.03 per share (the “Exercise Price”), for an aggregate purchase price of $2,500,000 (“Vicis Equity Infusion”). Furthermore, pursuant to the Vicis Agreement, all of the 3,000,000 shares outstanding of the Company’s Series B Stock) previously owned by Vicis were converted into 3,000,000 shares of Series A Stock. Accordingly, the Company no longer has any outstanding shares of Series B Stock. The Exercise Price is subject to a price adjustment from time to time upon the occurrence of certain events set forth in the Warrant.
The Company accounted for these two transactions as one event for accounting purposes. The $5,500,000 ($2,500,000 in cash and $3,000,000 of principal of Series B Stock) was considered for investment in 5,500,000 shares of Series A Stock and 250,000,000 warrants to purchase common stock. Initially the $5,500,000 was allocated based on the relative fair value of the Series A Stock and the warrants issued. The value assigned to the Series A Stock was reduced to zero as a result of a beneficial conversion feature.
Vicis also purchased and assumed from Hilco Financial, LLC (“Hilco”), and Hilco assigned to Vicis, all credit agreements, loans and promissory notes under which Hilco had loaned money to the Company. The Company consented to such assignments. In connection with such assignments, Hilco transferred to Vicis its warrants to purchase 61,273,835 shares of common stock of the Company. In addition, Vicis purchased and assumed from Dynamic Decisions (“DD”), and DD assigned to Vicis, all credit agreements, loans and promissory notes under which DD had loaned money to the Company. The Company consented to such assignments.
All Warrants and Series A Stock each contain provisions that limit their holders ability to exercise and convert, as applicable, the Warrant and Series A Stock to the extent that, after such conversion/exercise, the sum of the number of shares of common stock beneficially owned by the holder would result in beneficial ownership by any holder and its affiliates of more than 4.99% of the outstanding shares of common stock.
As a result of Vicis equity infusion described above, the exercise price of all of the Company’s outstanding warrants, including the warrants transferred to Vicis from Hilco, has been reset to $0.03 pursuant to the price protection provisions of those warrants. Additionally, the conversion price of all outstanding shares of Series A Stock, including those previously owned by Vicis, has been reset to $0.03 pursuant to the price protection provisions of the Series A Stock.
Acquisition of Standard Tel Networks, LLC
On September 23, 2008, Brookside Technology Holdings Corp. (the “Company), through its wholly owned subsidiary, Standard Tel Acquisitions, Inc. (“Acquisition Sub”), acquired Standard Tel Networks, LLC (“STN”), an independent distributor of high quality, turnkey converged voice and data business communications products and services with California offices in the San Francisco Bay Area, Sacramento, San Diego and headquartered in Huntington Beach. The acquisition was conducted pursuant to a previously-disclosed Stock and Membership Interest Purchase Agreement dated July 17, 2008, and was structured as the acquisition of (a) all of the stock of Trans-West Network Solutions, Inc. (“Trans-West”) from the

shareholders of Trans-West (the “Trans-West Shareholders”) and (b) all of the membership interest of STN owned by ProLogic Communication, Inc. (“ProLogic” and collectively with the Trans-West Shareholders, the “Seller Parties”). As previously reported, Trans-West, a holding company with no operations, owns eighty percent (80%) of the membership interest of STN and ProLogic owned the other twenty percent (20%), and, accordingly, the Company now owns (directly, in part, and indirectly through Trans West, in other part) one hundred percent (100%) of STN.
Results of Operations
The following discussion of the financial condition and results of operations of the Company should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements included herewith. This discussion should not be construed to imply that the results discussed herein will necessarily continue into the future, or that any conclusion reached herein will necessarily be indicative of actual operating results in the future.

Revenues, Cost of Sales and Gross Margins
Total revenues from operations for the quarter ended March 31, 2009 were $5,001,299 compared to $4,208,066 reported for the same period in 2008, representing an increase of $793,233 or 19%. This increase in revenues is primarily due to acquisition of STN, which accounted for $2,185,939 of the increase. This increase was partially offset by the decrease in revenues from USVD and Brookside Technology Partners which experienced decreased revenues in 2009 of $1,125,844 and $266,862, respectively. This decrease is primarily due to companies not fully committing to capital purchases due to market uncertainty. In addition, the Kentucky region experienced ice storms and other harsh weather in the first quarter of 2008 which caused power outages for two weeks, which resulted in much less business activity for USVD.
Cost of sales was $2,276,180 for the quarter ended March 31, 2009 compared to $2,229,881 for the quarter ended March 31, 2008, an increase of $46,299 or 2%. This increase in cost of sales is in conjunction with the increase in revenues due to the acquisition of STN, which accounted for $813,726 of the increase. This increase was partially offset by the decrease in cost of sales at USVD and Brookside Technology Partners which experienced decreased cost of sales in 2009 of $550,557 and $216,870, respectively. These decreases were due to less cost of sales associated with the decrease in revenues for USVD and Brookside Technology Partners discussed above. As a percentage of sales, cost of sales was 46% and 53% for the quarters ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. This decrease was primarily due to increased profit margin realized on sales consummated in the first quarter 2009 versus the comparative period in 2008. This improvement in cost of sales as a percentage of sales is primarily attributable to the Company’s universal focus on higher margin, application specific value added sales approach.
Our gross margin was 54% for the quarter ended March 31, 2009 compared to 47% for the quarter ended March 31, 2008. The increase in gross margin percentage is due primarily to the Company’s universal focus on higher margin, application specific value added sales approach.
General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative expenses were $3,110,097 and $1,744,490 for the quarters ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. This represented an increase of $1,365,607 or 78%. This increase in general and administrative expenses in 2009 was due primarily to the acquisition of STN, which accounted for $1,210,152 of the increase.
Amortization Expense
The Company recognized $476,674, and $1,322,324 of amortization expense for the quarters ending March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively, related to the accounting treatment of the warrants issued and amortization of intangible assets associated with the USVD and STN acquisitions. The decrease in amortization expense of $845,650 for the quarter ending March 31, 2009 versus the comparable period in 2008, is primarily due to the amortization of the warrants issued in conjunction with the USVD acquisition being fully amortized as of September 26, 2008.
Interest Expense
Interest expense was $432,809 and $675,453 for the quarters ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. The decrease is due primarily to the restructure of the debt incurred with the USVD acquisition to Series A Stock. This decrease was partially offset by the additional debt incurred with the acquisition of STN.
Net Profit/Net Loss from Operations
We realized a net loss from operations of $1,327,978 for the quarter ended March 31, 2009 compared to a net loss from operations of $1,798,087 for the quarter ended March 31, 2008. This decrease in net loss from operations is primarily due to the decrease in amortization expense of $845,650, the increase in gross profit of $746,934 and the decrease in interest expense, partially offset by the increase in general and administrative expense of $1,365,607.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company completed the STN acquisition on September 23, 2008. As part of the acquisition, the Company was able to rearrange its debt and equity and obtain more favorable terms. The Company has a $2,000,000 line of credit with $250,000 outstanding and cash and cash equivalents of $1,033,141 at March 31, 2009. The Company is in technical default on its debt. This will have an impact on its ability to borrow on the line of credit. The Company sustained a loss for the three months ended March 31, 2009 of approximately $1.3 million, sustained losses in 2008 and 2007 and has a retained deficit of approximately $18.4 million. These losses were primarily due to the amortization expense related to the accounting treatment of warrants issued in connection with the debt raised to fund the USVD acquisition. For the three months ended March 31, 2009, the Company had net cash used in operations of $59,417. Historically, the Company has relied on borrowings and equity financings to maintain its operations. The Company believes it has enough cash to operate for the coming year with its cash on hand, cash to be generated from operations and the borrowing availability on its credit lines. However, the recent economic downturn could have a material effect on its business operations.
The Company intends to acquire other similar companies and will require additional funds either through borrowings or by raising additional equity.
Critical Accounting Policies
Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. For a description of those estimates, see Note 3, Significant Accounting Policies, contained in the explanatory notes to our consolidated financial statements contained in this Report. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to reserves, deferred tax assets and valuation allowance, and impairment of long-lived assets. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions; however, we believe that our estimates, including those for the above described items, are reasonable.
Revenue Recognition
The Company derives its revenues primarily from sales of converged VOIP telecommunications equipment and professional services implementation/installation, data and wireless equipment and installation, recurring maintenance/managed service and network service agreements and other services. The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101, “Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements” (“SAB 101”), as amended by SAB No. 104 “Revenue Recognition, Corrected Copy” (“SAB 104”). Under SAB 101 and SAB 104, revenue is recognized when there is persuasive evidence of an arrangement, delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, the sales price is determinable, and collectibility is reasonably assured. Sales are recorded net of discounts, rebates, and returns.
The Company primarily applies the percentage-of-completion method and generally recognizes revenue based on the relationship of total costs incurred to total projected costs. Profits expected to be realized on such contracts are based on total estimated sales for the contract compared to total estimated costs, including warranty costs, at completion of the contract. These estimates are reviewed and revised periodically throughout the lives of the contracts, and adjustments to profits resulting from such revisions are made cumulative to the date of the change. Provision for anticipated losses on uncompleted contracts is made in the period in which such losses become evident.
Revenue from contracts that contain multiple elements that are not accounted for under the percentage-of-completion method are accounted for in accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) Issue No. 00-21, “Accounting for Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables.” Revenue from these contracts is allocated to each respective element based on each element’s relative fair value, if determinable, and is recognized when the respective revenue recognition criteria for each element are fulfilled. The Company’s recognizes revenue from the equipment sales and installation services using the percentage of completion method. The services for maintaining the systems we install are sold as a stand-alone contract and treated according to the terms of the contractual arrangements then in effect. Revenue from this service is generally recognized over the term of the subscription period or the terms of the contractual arrangements then in effect. A majority of equipment

sales and installation services revenues are billed in advance on a monthly basis based upon the fixed price, and are included both accounts receivable and deferred income on the accompanying balance sheets. Direct costs incurred on such contracts are deferred until the related revenue is recognized and are included in deferred contract costs on the accompanying balance sheets. The Company also provides professional services (maintenance/managed services) on a fixed price basis. These services are billed as bundles and or upon completion of the services.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
As a Smaller Reporting Company as defined Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act and in item 10(f)(1) of Regulation S-K, we are electing scaled disclosure reporting obligations and therefore are not required to provide the information requested by this Item 3.
Item 4T. Controls and Procedures
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer (our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer), has evaluated our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended), as of the period ended March 31, 2009, the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based upon that evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of March 31, 2009 to ensure the timely collection, evaluation and disclosure of information relating to our company that would potentially be subject to disclosure under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
During the most recent quarter ended March 31, 2009, the Company hired accounting consultants to augment its accounting staff and accounting and reporting capabilities. Management believes these are material changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act).
