These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the following factors, among others, that could affect the outcome of the Company's forward-looking statements: general economic and market conditions; reduced demand for information technology equipment; competitive pricing and difficulty managing product costs; development of new technologies which make the Company's products obsolete; rapid industry changes; failure by the Company's suppliers to meet quality or delivery requirements; the inability to attract, hire and retain key personnel; failure of an acquired business to further the Company's strategies; the difficulty of integrating an acquired business; undetected problems in the Company's products; the failure of the Company's intellectual property to be adequately protected; unforeseen litigation; unfavorable result of current pending litigation; the ability to maintain sufficient liquidity in order to support operations; the ability to maintain satisfactory relationships with lenders and to remain in compliance with financial loan covenants and other requirements under current banking agreements; the ability to maintain satisfactory relationships with suppliers; federal and/or state regulatory and legislative actions; customer preferences and spending patterns; the ability to implement or adjust to new technologies and the ability to secure and maintain key contracts and relationships.  New risk factors emerge from time to time and it is not possible  to accurately predict all such risk factors, nor can we assess the impact of all such risk factors on our business or the extent to which any risk factor, or combination of risk factors, may cause results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. Except as otherwise required by applicable law, we undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements or the risk factors described in this Quarterly Report or in the documents we incorporate by reference, whether as a result of new information, future events, changed circumstances or any other reason after the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

Note A – Basis of Presentation and Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Alanco Technologies, Inc., an Arizona corporation (“Alanco” or “Company”), has in recent years reported three business segments: Data Storage, Wireless Asset Management and RFID Technology.  At June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2010, in compliance with the Company’s plan to divest the Data Storage and RFID Technology segments and invest the proceeds into the Wireless Asset Management segment, the Data Storage and RFID Technology segments had either been sold or were presented as “Assets Held for Sale” and “Liabilities Related to Assets Held for Sale”.  During the quarter ended March 31, 2011, the Company entered into a definitive agreement to sell the remaining segment, Wireless Asset Management, subject to shareholder approval.   The transaction was voted upon at the Company’s annual meeting on May 10, 2011.  Due to the agreement and approval vote, all operating segments were reported as Discontinued Operations for the quarter ended March 31, 2011.   Prior period balances have been reclassified to report all operating segments as discontinued operations for all periods presented.

The Company announced on August 26, 2010 that the Board of Directors had elected to effect a 1 for 8 reverse stock split that was effective on August 27, 2010, when the Company’s common stock began trading on a post split-adjusted basis under the interim trading symbol “ALAND” for a period of 20 days, after which the Company’s trading symbol returned to “ALAN”.  (The Company again began trading under the symbol “ALAN” on September 27, 2010.)  The Company had previously received authority from its shareholder to effect a reverse split at a ratio within a specified range, if and as determined by the Board of Directors, in order to maintain its NASDAQ listing.

As a result of the reverse split, each eight (8) shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock outstanding at the time of the reverse split was automatically reclassified and changed into one share of common stock, and the total number of common shares outstanding was reduced from approximately 41.7 million shares to approximately 5.2 million shares post split.  The reverse stock split resulted in the same adjustment to the Company’s outstanding stock options and securities reserved for issuance under its current incentive plans.  No fractional shares were issued in connection with the reverse stock split.  Upon surrender of their stock certificates, shareholders have received or will receive, cash in lieu of the fractional shares to which they would otherwise be entitled.  All per share amounts and outstanding shares, including all common stock equivalents (stock options, warrants and convertible securities) have been restated in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and the loss per share for all periods presented to reflect the reverse stock split.

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements presented herein have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q.  Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted.  In our opinion, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of such condensed consolidated financial statements.  Such necessary adjustments consist of normal recurring items and the elimination of all significant intercompany balances and transactions.

These interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s June 30, 2010 Annual Report filed on Form 10-K.  Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year.  Certain reclassifications may have been made to conform prior period financials to the presentation in the current reporting period.  The reclassifications had no effect on net loss.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles 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 statement and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Significant estimates include, but are not limited to, the Company’s Wireless Asset Management segment estimates of warranty cost accruals based upon contractual first year warranty obligations.

Actual results could differ from these estimates.  This segment is being sold with certain sales consideration being escrowed pending a review of changes in working capital.  Refer to Note I – Sale of StarTrak.

The Company received a letter of reprimand from Nasdaq on December 28, 2010 concerning Nasdaq’s belief that the Company has failed to maintain a majority of independent directors on its Board of Directors in violation of Nasdaq rule 5605 (b)(1), and had a non-independent director on its Nominating Committee in violation of Nasdaq Rule 5605 (e)(1).    In particular, Nasdaq has determined that Donald E. Anderson, who served as a director from June 2002 until his resignation on October 4, 2010 and was a member of the Company’s Nominating Committee, should not have been classified as an independent director under Nasdaq Rule 5605(a)(2)(d).  The Company relied upon outside counsel who determined that the instrument representing the Company’s obligation to repay a long term loan by a Trust involving Mr. Anderson constituted a security and that the exception provided by Nasdaq Rule 5605(a)(2)(D)(i) applied.  Although there is no Nasdaq Rule or published interpretation to the contrary, Nasdaq staff determined that said obligation of the Company does not constitute a security for purposes of the exemption and Mr. Anderson was therefore not independent.

Nasdaq also found that the Company’s violation did not appear to have been the result of a deliberate intent to avoid compliance and was based upon advice of outside counsel.  Therefore, the appropriate sanction is issuance of the Letter of Reprimand.  The Company was given until its next Annual Meeting of Shareholders scheduled for May 10, 2011 to regain compliance with Nasdaq Rule 5605(b)(1).  The annual meeting was held on the date indicated and a slate of five directors, three of which are independent, were elected to serve for a one-year term expiring at the next Annual Meeting of Shareholders or until their successors have been duly elected and qualified.  Management believe the Company now complies with Nasdaq Rule 5605(b)(1) and is awaiting a Nasdaq confirmation.

Stock-based compensation - The Company has stock-based compensation plans and reports stock-based compensation expense for all stock-based compensation awards based on the estimated grant date fair value.  The value of the compensation cost is amortized at a minimum on a straight-line basis over the requisite service periods of the award (generally the option vesting term).

The Company estimates fair value using the Black-Scholes valuation model.  Assumptions used to estimate compensation expense are determined as follows:

·  
Expected term is determined under the simplified method using an average of the contractual term and vesting period of the award as appropriate statistical data required to properly estimate the expected term was not available;

·  
Expected volatility of award grants made under the Company’s plans is measured using the historical daily changes in the market price of the Company’s common stock over the expected term of the award;

·  
Risk-free interest rate is to approximate the implied yield on zero-coupon U.S. Treasury bonds with a remaining maturity equal to the expected term of the awards; and,

·  
Forfeitures are based on the history of cancellations of awards granted by the Company and management’s analysis of potential future forfeitures.

Long-lived assets and intangible assets – The Company reviews carrying values at least annually or whenever events or circumstances indicate the carrying values may not be recoverable through projected discounted cash flows.

Fair value of financial instruments – The estimated fair values for financial instruments are determined at discrete points in time based on relevant market information.  These estimates involve uncertainties and cannot be determined with precision.  The carrying amounts of accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, and notes payable approximate fair value given their short-term nature.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

With the exception of those discussed below, there have been no recent accounting pronouncements or changes in accounting pronouncements during the nine months ended March 31, 2011, that are of significance, or potential significance, to us.

In April 2011, the FASB issued guidance which addresses agreements that entitle and obligate a transferor to repurchase or redeem financial assets before their maturity.  The guidance is effective for the first interim or annual period on or after December 15, 2011.  The Company is currently assessing the impact of this guidance on its financial position and results of operations.

Note B – Stock-Based Compensation and Warrants

The Company has several employee stock option and officer and director stock option plans that have been approved by the shareholders of the Company.  The plans require that options be granted at a price not less than market on date of grant and are more fully discussed in our Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2010.

The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to estimate fair value of stock-based awards.

Note C – Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations

The Company implemented a plan during fiscal 2009 to divest the operations of its Data Storage segment and reinvest the proceeds into the remaining business segments.  The Company expanded its divestiture plan during the quarter ended September 30, 2009 to include the RFID Technology segment.  The Company executed an agreement, during the quarter ended March 31, 2010, to sell substantially all of the assets and liabilities of its Data Storage segment.

On August 18, 2010, the Company announced the divestiture of Alanco/TSI PRISM, Inc. (“TSI”) operations, the Company’s RFID Technology segment, with the sale of substantially all of the assets and business of TSI to Black Creek Integrated Systems Corp., a private company located in Irondale, Alabama.  The transaction, which closed August 17, 2010, consisted of approximately $2 million in cash, and a potential earn-out that could approach five hundred thousand to one million dollars.  (The earn-out has not been valued in the transaction due to the lack of supportability.)

At March 31, 2011, the “Assets Held for Sale” and “Liabilities Related to Assets Held for Sale” represent assets retained by seller or receivables resulting from the sales transactions, and liabilities not assumed in the transactions.  The divestiture program significantly improved Alanco’s financial position by reducing secured debt and eliminating the large operating losses associated with the divested businesses.

In February 2011, the Company entered into a definitive agreement to sell the remaining business segment, Wireless Asset Management, subject to shareholder approval.   The transaction was voted upon at the Company’s annual shareholders’ meeting scheduled for May 10, 2011.  Accordingly, at June 30, 2010 and March 31, 2011, all operating segments were reported as “Assets Held for Sale” and “Liabilities Related to Assets Held for Sale”. All operating results for those segments were reclassified to discontinued operations for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010.  The reclassification of those segment assets and liabilities to “Assets Held for Sale” and “Liabilities Related to Assets Held for Sale” does not affect the reported net loss for the periods presented.

During the fourth quarter ended June 30, 2010, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $4.5 million, reducing the RFID Technology segment values in anticipation of a sale.  The impairment charge was made as of June 30, 2010 with knowledge of the RFID Technology transaction sales value as well as knowledge of the segment’s operating results for the period from July 1, 2010 through the August 17, 2010 sale date of ($142,200) on sales of $38,700.  The operating loss had been accrued at June 30, 2010 as it represented the minimum cost to maintain the operation for sale and resulted in no income or loss from discontinued operations for the RFID Technology segment reported for the nine months ending March 31, 2011.  The RFID Technology segment operating loss for the nine months ended March 31, 2010 was $1,153,300, on sales of $674,000.

Note D - Loss Per Share

Basic and diluted loss per share of common stock was computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding.

Diluted earnings per share are computed based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock and dilutive securities outstanding during the period.  Dilutive securities are options, warrants, convertible preferred stock and convertible debt that are freely exercisable into common stock at less than the prevailing market price.  Dilutive securities are not included in the weighted average number of shares when inclusion would increase the earnings per share or decrease the loss per share. As of March 31, 2011, there were zero potentially dilutive securities included in the weighted average shares of common stock outstanding as inclusion of outstanding stock options, warrants, and stock issuable upon conversion of debt or preferred stock would be anti-dilutive.

Note E – Equity

During the nine months ended March 31, 2011, the Company issued a total of 869,000 shares, including a 2,000 treasury share adjustment, of Class A Common Stock.  Included were 3,100 shares issued for services valued at $5,300, 1,100 shares issued for payment of notes and interest valued at $2,100, 256,200 shares issued for exercise of warrants valued at $304,800, 384,300 shares coupled with 95,100 warrants to purchase Class A Common Stock at $2.64 per share, valued at $612,400, net of $55,400 in expenses issued in a private offering to accredited investors, 23,700 common shares issued in payment of certain Series D Preferred Dividend obligations, valued at $37,500, 53,900 common shares issued in payment of certain Series E Preferred Dividend obligations, valued at $83,200, 129,700 shares, valued at $518,900, issued in the conversion of 51,900 Series D Preferred shares to common shares, and 15,000 shares, valued at $45,000, issued in the conversion of 10,000 Series E Preferred shares to common shares.

The Company declared and paid dividends-in-kind on the Company’s Series B Convertible Preferred Stock through the issuance of 8,500 shares of Series B Preferred Stock valued at $85,100.  The Company’s Preferred Stocks are more fully discussed in the Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2010.
 
On September 16, 2010, the Board of Directors approved the immediate re-pricing of certain outstanding stock options (approximately 866,000 shares to forty-nine individuals) held by current Officers, Directors and employees to $1.52 per share, a 7.9% premium to the closing market price on September 15, 2010 of $1.39.  The compensation value created by the re-pricing, as determined under the Black Scholes method, was approximately $298,400 and under current accounting rules results in a non cash expense in current and future periods, not to exceed the vesting periods of the stock options.  The Company elected to expense in the quarter ended December 31, 2010, the entire increase in stock based compensation resulting from the re-pricing.  Accordingly, the value of employee stock-based compensation recognized for the nine months ended March 31, 2011 amounted to $498,600, including the $298,400 discussed above, compared to $341,800 recognized in the comparable nine months of the prior fiscal year.  See Note B – Stock-Based Compensation for additional discussion related to employee stock-based compensation.
 
    During October 2010, the Company raised $304,800 through the exercise of 256,200 warrants.  On October 13, 2010, the Company’s Board of Directors approved the re-pricing of certain warrants, held by non officers and directors, to purchase 256,200 shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock.  The warrants, with exercise prices ranging from $4.00 to $14.40 per share, were re-priced to $1.19 per share, reflecting an approximate 15% discount from the then current market, and required the warrants to be exercised through October 21, 2010.  If the warrants were not exercised by the October 21, 2010 date, the exercise price reverted back to the pre-adjusted price.  The warrant re-pricing discount represented the Company’s estimate of market value, net of costs, of a private placement of an equal amount and was completed to raise required working capital for the Company.
 
At June 30, 2010, the Company reported 2,000 treasury shares, valued at $30,000, representing the estimated number of Alanco shares to be distributed upon the liquidation of a private Company in which Alanco had ownership.

    During the quarter ended December 31, 2010, the Company received $18,200 as partial liquidation of its investment.  In January 2011, the Company received another $2,800 as a final distribution and accordingly the Company reduced treasury shares at March 31, 2011 to zero, resulting in a loss of approximately $9,000 for the nine month period, reported in the current quarter as other expense.

Note F – Related Party Transactions

The Company has a line of credit agreement (“Agreement”), more fully discussed in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2010 with a private trust (“Lender”) controlled by Mr. Donald Anderson, a greater than five percent stockholder of the Company.  Mr. Anderson’s investments in the Company are more fully discussed in Note I (below) – Line of Credit and Term Loan and in the Company’s Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010.

At March 31, 2011 the principal balance due under the Agreement was approximately $4.2 million compared to $5.7 million at June 30, 2010.  During the quarter ended September 30, 2010, the Company paid $1.8 million against the credit line from the sale of the net RFID Technology segment assets.  During the quarter ended December 31, 2010, the Company borrowed $300,000 under the Agreement.  See Note G – Line of Credit and Term Loan for additional discussion of the Agreement.

As discussed in the equity footnote above, during the nine months ended March 31, 2011, the Company issued a total of 23,700 shares of Class A Common Stock, valued at $37,500, in payment of Series D Preferred Stock dividends. 7,900 or 33.3% of the Class A Common Stock issued as Series D Preferred Stock dividend payments went to officers and directors of the Company.

On December 16, 2010, the Company issued a $100,000 note payable to an officer and director for an additional $100,000 of working capital provided to the Company.  The note is unsecured, bears interest at a rate of 12% and is payable within thirty (30) days following written demand for such payment by the Holder.

Note G – Line of Credit and Term Loan

On December 16, 2010, the Company and the Anderson Family Trust, a private trust, agreed to an amendment to the Company’s line of credit, entered into in June 2002, which reduced the credit limit on the line to $4.23M from $4.7M, extended the maturity date to January 31, 2011 and decreased the conversion price from $10.00 to $1.37 on the $1 million convertible portion of the debt.  The amendment also restricted the $1 million convertible portion to an event of default and placed restrictions on the Company’s issuance of stock.  In addition, during the quarter ended March 31, 2011, the Line of Credit maturity date was extended several times to allow the Company time to evaluate available strategic alternatives.  The Anderson Family Trust received a $30,000 fee for the amendments, which was added to the loan balance.  Currently, the maturity date has been extended to May 16, 2011 as discussed in Footnote J – Subsequent Events.

At March 31, 2011, the Company had reached the maximum outstanding balance under the Line of Credit of $4,230,000.  Under the Agreement, the Company must maintain a minimum balance due of at least $2.5 million through its maturity date.  Interest is accrued at the prime rate plus 3% (6.25% at March 31, 2011) for any balance up to $2 million and 12% on balances in excess of $2 million.

In addition, ORBCOMM, Inc., an entity that had entered into an agreement to purchase StarTrak Systems, LLC, agreed during the quarter ended March 31, 2011 to loan the Company $300,000, pursuant to a secured promissory note  with interest at the rate of six percent per annum.  The loan is secured by a second lien on all of the assets of Alanco and StarTrak.  See Footnote I – Sale of StarTrak Systems, LLC for additional discussion of the loan.

Note H – Legal

The Company’s subsidiary, StarTrak Systems, has recently been made a defendant concerning certain patent infringement claims as follows:

Arrivalstar S.A, et all. v. StarTrak Systems, LLC, et al.  Case No.: 4:10-CV-0033.  This action was a patent infringement action venued in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Indiana.  StarTrak believes that the plaintiff’s patents are invalid due to prior art, based, in part, upon the substantial commercial activity concerning the patent claims long before the patents were applied for or issued.  However, StarTrak has resolved the action by agreeing to pay $70,000 over a number of monthly payments, thus avoiding substantially greater expenses that would be incurred in defending the action. 

Innovative Global Systems LLC v. StarTrak Systems, LLC, et al.  Case No.: 6:10-CV-00327.  This action is another patent infringement action venued in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas.  Again, StarTrak believes that the plaintiff’s patents are invalid due to prior art, based, in part, upon the substantial commercial activity concerning the patent claims long before the patents were applied for or issued. Similarly, StarTrak is in discussions with the plaintiff in cooperation with other defendants to resolve the matter by paying a sum substantially less than would be incurred in defending the action.   This lawsuit is quite early in the discovery stage and StarTrak’s counsel has not formed an opinion concerning the likely outcome.  However, the Company’s management believes that the suit is without merit and the Company will continue to vigorously defend itself in the matter if it is not soon resolved.

On February 11, 2011, the Company received claims and threatened litigation from Tim Slifkin (“Slifkin”) and Tom Robinson (“Robinson”), a director and executive officer, respectively, (both employees of StarTrak) alleging that the Company had not recorded a total of approximately $630,000 of salaries, finder's fees and commissions allegedly earned by Slifkin and Robinson and payable at December 31, 2010.  In addition, Slifkin and Robinson claimed that upon the completion of future anticipated transactions they will be owed an additional $335,000 each for a total additional liability of $770,000.
 
 
However, in connection with the ORBCOMM acquisition of the StarTrak assets (which was approved by the Company’s shareholders at its annual meeting of shareholders held May 10, 2011), the Company entered into a Settlement Agreement and Mutual Release, signed on February 22, 2011 but not effective until signatures were released on February 24, 2011, with Slifkin and Robinson.  The agreement provides incentive compensation to Slifkin and Robinson in cash and ORBCOMM stock a total of approximately $85,000 each, upon the successful completion of the sale of StarTrak to ORBCOMM, Inc.  In addition, Slifkin and Robinson will receive up to approximately 3.2%, each, of the future potential earn out based upon reported sales for the period March 1, 2011 to February 28, 2012 as discussed in Note I – Sale of StarTrak Systems, LLC, below.

StarTrak has recently been served with a Third-Party Complaint by Great American Lines, Inc. and related parties in a lawsuit against them by certain freight shippers in the US District Court for the District of New Jersey, being Case No. 3:10-ev-02023-JAP-TJB.  The main case against Great American Lines involves allegations concerning a lost or stolen trailer containing freight owned by the plaintiffs.  Great American Lines has brought its Third-Party Complaint against StarTrak alleging that StarTrak breached its contract with Great American Lines to allow Great American Lines to track its trailer and for indemnity.  StarTrak has tendered its defense in the lawsuit to its insurance company, but counsel has not yet formed an opinion on the likely outcome. However, the Company’s management believes that the suit is without merit and the Company will vigorously defend itself in the matter.

The Company may also, from time to time, be involved in litigation arising from the normal course of business.  As of March 31, 2011 there was no other such litigation pending deemed material by the Company.

Note I – Sale of StarTrak Systems, LLC

On February 23, 2011, Alanco Technologies, Inc. Alanco’s wholly-owned subsidiary, StarTrak Systems, LLC ("StarTrak") and ORBCOMM Inc.

Total transaction consideration payable at close, including escrowed amounts as required by the agreement, for substantially all of the assets of StarTrak is equal to an aggregate face amount of approximately $18.2 million in cash, stock and assumption of debt.  Consideration consists of the following:

9.

The parties have also agreed to compensate the other for changes in working capital between November 30, 2010 and the effective date.  If working capital, defined as current assets minus current liabilities minus long-term deferred revenue, increases over the period, ORBCOMM will pay the value of that increase in cash or additional ORBCOMM Stock under number 8 above.  If the defined working capital decreases during the period, ORBCOMM will deduct that amount from ORBCOMM Stock issued under number 8 above.

In addition to the Closing Consideration discussed above, up to an additional gross amount of approximately $1.17 million in contingent payments (the “Earn Out Amount”) is payable to Alanco by ORBCOMM if certain revenue milestones of the StarTrak business are achieved for the 2011 calendar year (the “Earn-Out Period”), ranging from approximately $194,000 in payout for total revenue of $20 million in the Earn-Out Period to approximately $1.17 million from total revenue of $24 million in the Earn-Out Period.

ORBCOMM, Alanco and StarTrak also entered into a Secured Promissory Note, approved by the Anderson Family Trust, pursuant to which ORBCOMM loaned $300,000 to Alanco and StarTrak payable, together with interest at the rate of six percent per annum, on the closing date of the Asset Purchase Agreement, or ten days following the termination thereof.  The loan is secured by a second lien on all of the assets of Alanco and StarTrak.
