EXPLANATORY NOTE
This Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-Q/A is filed to amend the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q of 180 Connect Inc. (the “ Company ”) for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2007 (the “ Initial Filing ”) in order to correct an error in our Consolidated Balance Sheets as of September 30, 2007 and as of December 31, 2006. We determined that the long-term debt for our revolving credit facility should be reclassified as current in accordance with EITF-95-22. These restatements to reclassify certain amounts of long-term debt as current portion of long-term debt had no impact on the amounts of total debt previously reported in the consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, the amount of the net loss and comprehensive income (loss) reported in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) and the statements of shareholders’ equity and cash flows for each of the above noted periods. As a result of these reclassifications, the current portion of long-term debt increased by $17,122,530 and $20,534,422 as of September 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively, with a corresponding decrease of the same amount to long-term debt for each of the respective periods.
     Except as set forth in this Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-Q/A, the other Items in the Initial Filing remain unchanged and are not restated herein. This Amendment No. 1 continues to reflect circumstances as of the date of the Initial Filing and the Company has not updated the disclosures contained therein to reflect events that occurred at a later date, except for the items relating to the restatement.

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
     On August 24, 2007 (the “Effective Date”), the plan of arrangement (the “Arrangement”) pursuant to the arrangement agreement (the “Arrangement Agreement”), dated as of March 13, 2007, as amended, by and among Ad.Venture Partners, Inc. (“AVP”), 180 Connect Exchangeco Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“Purchaser”) and 180 Connect Inc., a corporation incorporated under the laws of Canada (“180 Connect (Canada)”) was consummated pursuant to which the Purchaser (i) acquired all of the outstanding common shares of 180 Connect (Canada) in exchange for either shares of Company common stock, exchangeable shares of Purchaser that are exchangeable into shares of Company common stock at the option of the holder (“exchangeable shares”), or a combination of Company common stock and exchangeable shares of Purchaser, and (ii) outstanding options to purchase 180 Connect (Canada) common shares were exchanged for options to purchase Company common stock. As a result of the closing of the Arrangement, based on an exchange ratio of 0.6, the 180 Connect (Canada) stockholders were issued an aggregate of 13,643,183 shares of Company common stock, and 2,779,260 shares exchangeable into shares of common stock. The AVP shareholders held 9,577,709 of common shares of the Company immediately after the consummation of the Arrangement. Effective upon the consummation of the Arrangement, AVP changed its name to 180 Connect Inc. (the “Company”).
     Because the consummation of the Arrangement resulted in more than 50% of the voting securities of the Company being held by the shareholders of 180 Connect (Canada), the Arrangement has been accounted for under the reverse acquisition application of the equity recapitalization method of accounting in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for accounting and financial reporting purposes. Under this method of accounting, AVP was treated as the “acquired” company for financial reporting purposes. In accordance with guidance applicable to these circumstances, the Arrangement is considered to be a capital transaction in substance. Accordingly, for accounting purposes, the Arrangement was treated as the equivalent of 180 Connect (Canada) issuing stock for the net monetary assets of AVP, accompanied by a recapitalization. The net monetary assets of AVP were recorded at their fair value, essentially equivalent to historical costs, with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded. The accumulated deficit of 180 Connect (Canada) has been carried forward after the closing. Operations prior to the closing for all periods presented are those of 180 Connect (Canada). All common shares, warrants, options and earning per share amounts related to transactions and periods prior to August 24, 2007 have been restated in these financial statements to reflect the 0.6 exchange ratio applied to 180 Connect (Canada)’s equity instruments.
     The interim consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles applicable to interim consolidated financial statements and include 180 Connect Inc. (formerly known as Ad.Venture Partners, Inc.) and its subsidiaries (the “Company”). The notes presented in these interim consolidated financial statements include only significant events and transactions occurring since the Company’s last fiscal year and are not fully inclusive of all matters normally disclosed in the Company’s annual audited consolidated financial statements. As a result, these interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2006, included as an exhibit to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on August 30, 2007.
     The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. 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 consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
     In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments necessary to fairly present the Company’s results for the interim periods presented.

     The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.
      Seasonality
     The Company’s revenue is subject to seasonal fluctuations. Our customers’ subscriber growth, and thus the revenue earned by the Company, trends higher in the third and fourth quarters of the year. While subscriber activity is subject to seasonal fluctuations, it may also be affected by competition and varying amounts of promotional activity undertaken by the Company’s customers.
      Change in Accounting Estimate
     In the first quarter of 2007, the Company changed its depreciation period on its leased vehicles from 48 months to 60 months, resulting in a decrease of approximately $0.7 million and $2.1 million in depreciation expense and an increase of $0.03 and $0.12 in earnings per share for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007, respectively. This change in accounting estimate was adopted to better reflect the useful life of the asset and was applied prospectively from January 1, 2007.
2. IMPACT OF RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
     In February 2006, the FASB issued SFAS 155 — Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial instruments — an amendment of FASB Statements No. 133 and 140 (“SFAS 155”). This Statement:
    Permits fair value remeasurement for any hybrid financial instrument that contains an embedded derivative that otherwise would require bifurcation.
 
    Clarifies which interest-only strips and principal-only strips are not subject to the requirements of Statement 133.
 
    Establishes a requirement to evaluate interests in securitized financial assets to identify interests that are freestanding derivatives or that are hybrid financial instruments that contain an embedded derivative requiring bifurcation.
 
    Clarifies that concentrations of credit risk in the form of subordination are not embedded derivatives.
 
    Amends Statement 140 to eliminate the prohibition on a qualifying special-purpose entity from holding a derivative financial instrument that pertains to a beneficial interest other than another derivative financial instrument.
     SFAS 155 is effective for all financial instruments acquired or issued after the beginning of the Company’s fiscal year that commences on January 1, 2007. The application of this pronouncement had no material impact on the financial position or results of operations of the Company.
     In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“SFAS 157”). SFAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. The provisions of SFAS 157 are effective for the fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company is currently reviewing SFAS 157, but has not yet determined the impact on the consolidated financial statements.
     In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities” (“SFAS 159”) including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115. SFAS 159 permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. The objective is to improve financial reporting by providing entities with the opportunity to mitigate volatility in reported earnings caused by measuring related assets and liabilities differently without having to apply complex hedge accounting provisions.

The provisions of SFAS 159 are effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company is currently reviewing SFAS 159, but has not yet determined the impact on the consolidated financial statements.
     In June 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued FASB Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes” (“FIN 48”). FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in the Company’s financial statements in accordance with FASB Statement No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes”, and prescribes a minimum recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax provision taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The provisions of FIN 48 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006 and were adopted by the Company effective January 1, 2007. The impact of adoption of FIN 48 is disclosed in Note 12.
3. RESTRICTED CASH
     As at September 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, the Company had restricted cash, in the form of term deposits of approximately $11.9 million and $14.5 million, respectively. These term deposits are used to collateralize obligations associated with its insurance program and for contractor licensing surety bonds in several states. Interest earned of 3% to 5% on these funds is received monthly and is not subject to restriction.
     On February 8, 2007, as a result of a reduction in its insurance obligations, the Company negotiated a reduction in its required letter of credit (“LOC”). The LOC requirement, which is collateralized with the Company’s restricted cash, has been reduced by $3.2 million. This reduction in the Company’s restricted cash balance has been offset by a $1.6 million increase in restricted cash as collateral for a $1.6 million bond for the Boise Airport project currently in progress by the Company’s Network Services operation.

At September 30, 2007 the interest rate of the revolving credit facility was 10.75% and with an effective interest rate of 14.15%. At December 31, 2006 the interest rate for the revolving credit facility was 11.25% and the interest rate for the over advance facility was 13.25% with an effective interest rate of 12.21%. Repayment is due on or before July 31, 2009. The credit facility may be borrowed, repaid, and reborrowed in accordance with the terms of the Security Agreement.

     Pursuant to the original terms of the debt agreement with Laurus Master Fund, Ltd (“Laurus”), the Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary 180 Connect, Inc. (“180 Connect Nevada”), had available a maximum amount of $57 million of debt comprising a term facility of $20 million and a combined revolving credit facility and over-advance facility of up to $37 million. The revolving credit facility is subject to the Company’s eligible trade receivables and inventory as per the debt agreement. For the period of August 1, 2006 to July 31, 2007, 180 Connect (Canada) was able to draw in excess of the eligible trade receivables and inventory an over-advance amount up to $9 million but not to exceed an aggregate amount of $37 million. After July 31, 2007, the over advance became part of the revolving facility, this date was further extended to August 24, 2007. The interest rates on the new debt range from prime plus 3% to prime plus 5%, subject to a minimum interest rate of 10% to 12%, and are therefore subject to risk relating to interest rate fluctuations. Monthly term loan repayments commenced February 1, 2007 for $666,667.
     The debt agreement states that there are no financial covenants of the Company with respect to such facilities but includes other covenants and events of default typical for credit facilities of this nature. This facility is collateralized by a security interest in all of the assets of 180 Connect Nevada. 180 Connect Nevada obtained a waiver from Laurus, with regards to the Arrangement, as such transaction may have constituted a change of control as defined in the debt agreement.

     In connection with the debt agreement, in August, 2006 the Company issued warrants to Laurus to purchase up to 1,200,000 common shares for nominal consideration of Canadian $0.01 per share, having a term of seven years. Laurus agreed not to sell any common shares of the Company issuable upon exercise of the warrants for a period of 12 months following the date of issuance of the warrants. Thereafter, Laurus may, at its option and assuming exercise of the warrants, sell up to 150,000 common shares of the Company per calendar quarter (on a cumulative basis) over each of the following eight quarters. On April 2, 2007, Laurus exercised its right under the warrants to purchase the 1,200,000 common shares (Note 8).
     The common stock purchase warrants were valued at $3,286,967, net of issuance costs of $299,165, using the Black-Scholes option pricing model using the following variables: volatility of 76.64%, expected life of seven years, a risk free interest rate of 4.5% and a dividend of nil. The fair value of the loan was measured using a three-year maturity and the present value of the cash payments of interest and principal due under the terms of the debt agreement discounted at a rate of 17.5% which approximates a similar non-convertible financial instrument with comparable terms and risk. Under Emerging Issues Task Force No.00-19 and APB Opinion No.14, the fair value of warrants issued in connection with the stock purchase warrants would be recorded as a reduction to the proceeds from the issuance of long-term debt, with the offset to additional paid-in capital. At September 30, 2007, the Company had recorded $1,635,511 of accretion expense in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). The Company paid $3,515,471 of issuance costs to complete the long-term debt financing, these costs are in other assets and are being amortized over the three-year period to maturity of the debt agreement with Laurus.
     On July 2, 2007, 180 Connect (Canada) entered into an amendment agreement with Laurus securing additional interim financing to fund working capital until August 24, 2007.
     Pursuant to the terms of the amendment agreement, Laurus agreed to provide an additional $8.0 million to 180 Connect (Canada) as an increase to the $37.0 million revolving loan, for a total revolving loan of $45.0 million. As part of this arrangement, Laurus also agreed to extend the maturity of the existing $9.0 million over-advance on the revolving loan from July 31, 2007 until August 24, 2007.
     Certain shareholders of AVP (“the AVP Shareholders”) agreed to provide a limited recourse guaranty for the additional financing Laurus provided to 180 Connect (Canada) by placing $7.0 million in a brokerage account pledged to Laurus which was to be used solely to purchase shares of common stock of AVP. As consideration for the guaranty and pledge, 180 Connect agreed to reimburse the AVP Shareholders up to $150,000 for their fees and expenses in connection with the guaranty and pledge.
     On July 2, 2007 in connection with the amendment agreement, 180 Connect (Canada) issued Laurus warrants to purchase 600,000 common shares of 180 Connect (Canada) with a five-year term, exercisable at $4.35 per share, the adjusted market price of 180 Connect (Canada)’s common stock at the time of issue, with the shares issuable thereunder subject to a one-year lock-up. The common stock purchase warrants were valued at $1,525,639, using the Black-Scholes option pricing model using the following variables: volatility of 61%, expected life of five years, a risk free interest rate of 4.25% and a dividend of nil. On August 24, 2007 the Company issued an additional 250,000 warrants exercisable at $4.01, the closing price on the first date after consummation of the Arrangement, which were valued at $558,258 using the same pricing model and variables as the 600,000 warrants described above. At September 30, 2007, the Company had recorded an expense in interest and loan fees in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) for $2,083,897 and a credit to paid in capital, respectively, as the bridge financing loans have expired.
     During the third quarter of 2007, the Company and Laurus entered into a settlement with regard to a dispute over an alleged misrepresentation and event of default under the provisions of the Laurus debt agreements that Laurus alleged occurred as a result of the repayment of the convertible debentures after consummation of the Arrangement. Under the settlement, the Company agreed to reduce the exercise price of the 850,000 warrants that Laurus holds in the Company. Of the original 600,000 warrants issued to Laurus on July 2, 2007, 450,000 warrants were re-priced with the exercise prices reduced from $4.35 to $0.01 and 150,000 warrants were re-priced with the exercise prices reduced from $4.35 to $3.00. The 250,000 warrants issued on August 24, 2007 were re-priced with the exercise price reduced from $4.01 to $3.00. The common stock purchase warrants were re-valued immediately before and after the re-pricing, using the Black-Scholes option pricing model using the following variables:

10


Table of Contents

volatility of 61%, expected life of five years, a risk free interest rate of 4.25% and a dividend of nil. The re-pricing of the warrants increased the fair value of warrants by an additional $1,003,763 and is recorded as an expense in interest and loan fees in the consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss) and a credit to paid-in capital.
     Laurus also received a 2.5% management fee on the $8.0 million increase to the revolver or $200,000 and a $1.4 million commitment fee which was paid on August 27, 2007, and expensed in interest and loan fees in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss).
     Upon consummation of the Arrangement, the Company had no outstanding balance on the additional $8.0 million revolving loan or the existing $9.0 million over-advance facility. Additionally, the Company paid down $5.0 million of principal on its term loan. For the three months ended September 30, 2007 the Company repaid a total of $7.0 million of term debt, $10.4 million of convertible debt and a portion of the Company’s revolving credit facility, which may be re-borrowed subject to the provisions of the debt agreement.
     Subsequent to the issuance of the Company’s audited and unaudited consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2006, and as of and for the nine months ended September 30, 2007, respectively, the Company’s management determined that an error existed in previously issued consolidated balance sheets. The Company determined that the long-term debt for the Revolver credit facility should be classified as current in accordance with EITF-95-22, “ Balance Sheet Classification of Borrowings Outstanding under Revolving Credit Agreements that Include Both a Subjective Acceleration Clause and a Lockbox Arrangement” (“EITF 95-22”) . As a result, the accompanying balance sheets as of December 31, 2006 and September 30, 2007 have been restated from amounts previously reported in Form 8-K dated August 24, 2007 and in the Form 10-Q dated November 14, 2007, respectively. The restatement had no impact on the previously reported consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss), shareholders’ equity or cash flows. A summary of the effects of these restatements are as follows:
                 
    Previously Reported     As restated  
    September 30, 2007     September 30, 2007  
Current portion of long-term debt
  $ 6,817,352     $ 23,939,882  
 
           
Long-term debt
    18,667,844       1,545,314  
 
           
                 
    Previously Reported     As restated  
    December 31, 2006     December 31, 2006  
Current portion of long-term debt
  $ 5,967,674     $ 26,502,096  
Long-term debt
    32,799,043       12,264,621  
     The Company’s revolving credit facility (the ‘Revolver”) requires a lockbox arrangement, which provides for all receipts to be swept daily to reduce borrowings outstanding under the credit facility. This arrangement, combined with the existence of a subjective acceleration clause in the revolving credit facility, requires that the borrowings under the Revolver be classified as a current liability on the balance sheet in accordance with EITF 95-22. The acceleration clause could allow the Company’s lender to forego additional advances should they determine there has been a material adverse change in the Company’s financial position or prospects reasonably likely to result in a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, condition (financial or otherwise), operations, performance or properties. The Company believes that no such material adverse change has occurred; further, as of March 27, 2008, the Company’s lender had not informed the Company that any such event had occurred.
6. CONVERTIBLE DEBENTURES
     On March 22, 2006, the Company completed a private placement with a group of qualified, accredited institutional investors of $10,686,101 of convertible debentures and warrants (Note 7). During the second quarter of 2007, one of the convertible debentures holders exercised its option to convert in total $2,024,785 of principal under the convertible debentures into 510,000 common shares.

11


Table of Contents

     The consummation of the Arrangement constituted an event of default under 180 Connect (Canada)’s convertible debentures. In the third quarter of 2007, the convertible debenture holders exercised their right to redeem the convertible debentures in full. The Company paid the holders of the convertible debentures $10,393,577 which included outstanding principal and a 20% redemption premium, excluding accrued but unpaid interest.
7. WARRANTS AND DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
     The warrants issued in connection with the Company’s March 22, 2006 private placement (“the PIPE Warrants”) are presented as a liability because they do not meet the criteria of EITF 00-19, Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to, and Potentially Settled in, a Company’s Own Stock, for equity classification. Subsequent changes in fair value are recorded in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). The PIPE Warrants, which have a four-year term, are exercisable into 942,060 common shares of the Company at an exercise price of $4.3311 per share.
     The Company determined the fair value of the PIPE Warrants at September 30, 2007 using a Black-Scholes pricing model. The following assumptions were used for the Black-Scholes pricing model: an expected life of 2.5 years, volatility of 61% and a risk-free rate of 4.25%.
     Each of the publicly traded warrants issued in connection with the initial public offering of AVP (the “public warrants”) and the unit purchase option issued to the underwriters in connection with such initial public offering, were classified as a derivative liability, as required under EITF No. 00-19, because in the absence of explicit provisions to the contrary in the warrant and purchase option agreement, the Company must assume that it could be required to settle the warrants and the unit purchase option on a net-cash basis, thereby necessitating the treatment of the potential settlement obligation as a liability. Subsequent to September 30, 2007, the Company entered into a Warrant Clarification Agreement which amended the warrant agreement governing the public warrants to clarify that no obligation exists for cash settlement of the public warrants; a similar amendment was entered into with respect to the unit purchase option (Note 19).
     Under the provisions of EITF No. 00-19, a contract designated as an asset or a liability must be carried at fair value on a company’s balance sheet, with any changes in fair value recorded in the company’s results of operations. The fair value of the public warrants and the unit purchase option are shown on the Company’s balance sheet as fair value of derivative financial instruments and the changes in the fair values of these derivatives are shown in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations as “Gain (loss) on change in fair value of derivative liabilities.” Since the public warrants are quoted on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board, the fair value of the public warrants was determined based on the market price of the warrants at the end of each period. To the extent that the market price increases or decreases, the Company’s derivative liability will also increase or decrease, impacting the Company’s consolidated statement of operations. As of September 30, 2007, the closing sale price for the warrants was $0.40, resulting in a total warrant liability of $7,200,000.
     The Company determined the fair value of the unit purchase option at September 30, 2007 using a Black- Scholes pricing model adjusted to include a separate valuation of the embedded warrants. The following assumptions were used for the Black Scholes pricing model: an expected life of 2.9 years, volatility of 62% and a risk-free rate of 4.02%. Valuations derived from this model are subject to ongoing internal and external verification and review. Selection of these inputs involves management’s judgment and may impact net income (loss). The volatility factor used in the Black-Scholes model has a significant effect on the resulting valuation of the derivative liabilities on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet. For the embedded warrants, the Company based the valuation on the closing sale price for the public warrants as of September 30, 2007 adjusted by the percentage difference between the valuations obtained using a Black-Scholes pricing model (with the same assumptions) for the public warrants and the embedded warrants.
     The Company determined the fair value of the unit purchase option at August 24, 2007 using a Black-Scholes pricing model adjusted to include a separate valuation of the embedded warrants. The following assumptions were used for the Black-Scholes pricing model: an expected life of 3.01 years, volatility of 63% and a risk-free rate of 4.31% resulting in a valuation of $636,225. As of August 24, 2007, the closing sale price for the public warrants was $0.35, resulting in a total warrant liability of $6,300,000. The fair market value of the total derivative of $6,936,225 was recorded as a credit to the fair value of derivative financial instruments and a debit to paid-in capital, as it represents the fair market value of the derivative liability just prior to the Arrangement.

     In connection with the Arrangement, two unrelated third parties agreed with180 Connect (Canada) to purchase 400,000 and 100,000 shares, respectively, of common stock of AVP and to vote these shares in favor of the Arrangement at the August 24, 2007 AVP shareholders meeting. 180 Connect (Canada) agreed to a make whole formula with these individuals to be settled within 30 days of consummation of the Arrangement. One of the individuals also received an option to acquire 16,000 AVP shares for $0.01 per share from Messrs. Balter and Slasky (initial stockholders and officers and directors of AVP and, after consummation of the Arrangement, directors of the Company).
     At the maturity date of this arrangement, which was the 30 th day following consummation of the Arrangement, the Company’s make whole liability was $2.8 million, and the Company agreed with each of such parties, in lieu of satisfaction of the make whole arrangement, to repurchase the shares and the option held by such parties for $3.0 million. The transaction resulted in a loss of $2.8 million on the settlement of derivative liabilities and $0.2 million has been recorded as a stock repurchase. The option remains outstanding.

     On April 2, 2007, Laurus exercised its right under the warrants held by it to purchase 1,200,000 common shares for $17,260, resulting in a debit to cash for $17,260, and a credit to paid-in capital of $17,260. During the second quarter of 2007, one of the holders of the convertible debentures and PIPE warrants exercised its option to convert in total $2,024,785 of principal under the 9.33% convertible debentures into 510,000 common shares. This was recorded as a debit to convertible debt and embedded derivative liabilities and a credit to paid-in capital of $2,452,205. In addition, $158,975 of the associated issuance costs were reclassified from other assets to paid-in capital.
     On August 24, 2007, the Arrangement was consummated. The Arrangement is accounted for under the reverse acquisition application of the equity recapitalization method of accounting in accordance with U.S. GAAP for accounting and financial reporting purposes. As a result of the transaction, the Company received $37,933,165 in proceeds net of AVP’s transaction costs related to the Arrangement and incurred $6,976,440 in issuance costs attributed to equity. The acquisition of the net assets of AVP reduced paid-in capital by $6,797,958 primarily for the net fair value of derivative financial instruments associated with the public warrants that existed before the Arrangement (Note 7).
     In the third quarter, the Company re-purchased 500,000 shares of common stock resulting in a charge to equity of $224,019 (Note 7), and issued a total of 850,000 warrants to Laurus for $3,087,660 (Note 5). The Company also recorded non-cash stock-based compensation expense of $227,019 upon approval of the Long-Term Share Compensation Plan (Note 9).

9. STOCK -BASED COMPENSATION
     During 2007, the Company established the Long-Term Share Compensation Plan (the “LTIP”) for the benefit of executive officers and key employees. The LTIP was approved by the shareholders in conjunction with the consummation of the transaction with AVP. Outside directors of the Company and consultants to the Company are not entitled to participate in the LTIP. The LTIP was designed to strengthen the ability of the Company to attract and retain qualified officers and employees which the Company and its affiliates require; encourage the acquisition of a proprietary interest in the Company by such officers and employees, thereby aligning their interests with the interests of the Company’s shareholders; and focus management of the Company and its affiliates on operating and financial performance and total long-term shareholder return by providing an increased incentive to contribute to the Company’s growth and profitability. Pursuant to the LTIP, the Board of Directors may grant options to purchase common shares, share appreciation rights and restricted stock units up to 2,000,000 shares, of which 1,980,000 were granted during the three months ended September 30, 2007.
     In addition to the LTIP, during the fourth quarter of 2006, 180 Connect (Canada)’s Board of Directors granted 167,999 share appreciation rights to several of the Company’s officers and senior management. The share appreciation rights have an exercise price of $2.50, expire December 6, 2011 and are settleable in common shares of the Company. The fair value of the share appreciation rights is measured at the date of approval and compensation expense is recorded in the period. The share appreciation rights were measured at August 24, 2007 (the date of approval) and vest over a four-year term ending December 6, 2010. 180 Connect (Canada) had previously issued stock options or other stock-based compensation which was assumed by the Company pursuant to the terms of the Arrangement.
     The Company used the Black-Scholes option pricing model to estimate the fair value of stock options, restricted stock units, and share appreciation rights and used the ratable method to amortize compensation expense over the vesting period of the grant. Pursuant to the LTIP certain senior executives were granted accelerated stock options and restricted stock units on September 5, 2007 that vest over a three-year term. The remaining stock options and restricted stock units also granted on September 5, 2007 vest over a four-year term.
     Total non-cash stock compensation expense recorded as operating expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007 was $227,019.

     In connection with the 2003 acquisition of the remaining 7% interest in Cable Play Inc., the Company exchanged 2,726,592 of its options for 3,181,922 options of those previously granted by Cable Play Inc. The Company applied FASB interpretation No.44 (“FIN44”), “Accounting for Certain Transactions Involving Stock Compensation.” The fair value of the unvested options granted at the date of acquisition of $4,126,541 was recognized as compensation cost over the remaining vesting periods and the Company recorded compensation expense of nil and $91,214, for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively.
     As at September 30, 2007, the Company had 2,471,478 total options, restricted stock units and share appreciation rights outstanding to employees and directors of the Company (as of December 31, 2006 the Company has 349,946 stock options outstanding) to purchase an equal amount of common shares. The options have a life of up to 10 years from the date of grant. Vesting terms and conditions are determined by the Board of Directors at the time of grant and vesting terms range from three to five years. On October 2, 2007, 20,000 stock options granted as part of the Cable Play acquisition were exercised.

     The Company recorded a current income tax expense of $0.1 million and a $0.1 million recovery for the three months ended September 30, 2007 and September 30, 2006 respectively, and a $0.4 million tax expense and a $0.06 million recovery for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and September 30, 2006, respectively.
     The adoption of FIN 48 effective January 1, 2007 resulted in an increase of tax liabilities of $387,212 and a corresponding decrease of the valuation allowance of $276,608 and an income tax expense of $110,604 as at January 1, 2007.
     As of the date of adoption, the Company’s total gross unrecognized benefit is $1,153,269 of which $110,604, if recognized, would impact the effective tax rate. There are no material changes to the total gross unrecognized tax benefits during the nine months ended September 30, 2007. The Company recognizes potential accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. The Company is not subject to, and therefore, has not accrued an amount in respect of interest and penalties.
     As of the date of adoption of FIN 48, tax years 2004 through 2007 remain subject to examination in the U.S. and tax years 2001 through 2006 remain subject to examination in Canada. The Company does not currently anticipate that its unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change within the next 12 months. Therefore, the FIN 48 liability is recognized as a non-current liability on the consolidated balance sheets.

     Basic net income (loss) per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss) per share is derived by using the weighted average number of common shares during the period plus the effect of dilutive stock options and warrants using the treasury stock method. For the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and September 30, 2006, respectively, the diluted net income (loss) per share is equivalent to basic net income (loss) per share as the outstanding options, and warrants are anti-dilutive. The potential dilution of warrants, employee stock options, restricted stock units and share appreciation rights could result in an additional 23.6 million common shares of the Company outstanding.

17. CONTINGENCIES
     The Company and its subsidiaries Ironwood Communications, Inc. and Mountain Center, Inc. are party to three class action lawsuits in federal court in Washington, California and Oregon brought by current and former employees alleging violations of state wage and hour laws and a class action suit alleging violations of state paycheck laws in federal court in California. The Company has established a reserve for estimated costs of $2.5 million for the Washington class action, of which $1.5 million was remaining as of September 30, 2007.
     In September 2007, the Company was named as a defendant in a purported class action lawsuit in federal court in Orlando, Florida. The claims relate to alleged violations of the federal Fair Labor Standards Act. The purported class action period relates back to September 2004 and seeks to certify a nationwide class of similarly situated employees.

     In October 2007, our subsidiary, Ironwood Communications, Inc., was named as a defendant in a purported class action lawsuit in state court in Los Angeles, California brought by current and former employees. The claims relate to alleged violations of California wage and hour laws. The purported class action period allegedly relates back to October 2003, although the class period may be limited to after June 30, 2004 by virtue of settlement of previous wage and hour class action litigation in California.
     The Company intends to vigorously contest each of these claims. Other than with respect to the Washington class action, no reserves have been recorded for these cases as the Company is unable to estimate the amounts of probable and reasonably estimable losses.
     In addition to the foregoing, the Company is subject to a number of individual employment-related lawsuits. No reserve has been recorded for these cases as the Company is unable to estimate the amount of probable and reasonably estimable loss. These lawsuits are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or liquidity.
18. SEGMENT INFORMATION
     The Company provides installation, integration and fulfillment services to the home entertainment, communications and home integration service industries. As such the revenue derived from this business is part of an integrated service offering provided to the Company’s customers and thus is reported as one operating segment.

19. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
     On August 20, 2007, 180 Connect (Canada) offered to pay Magnetar $800,000 in connection with Magnetar’s support of 180 Connect (Canada)’s proposed Arrangement and, as a shareholder of AVP, for Magnetar to agree to vote the shares it held in AVP in favor of the Arrangement at the August 24, 2007 AVP shareholders meeting. On August 23, 2007, Messrs. Balter and Slasky (initial stockholders and officers and directors of AVP and, after consummation of the Arrangement, directors of the Company) agreed to issue to Magnetar an option to acquire 160,000 shares of AVP for $0.01per share in satisfaction of 180 Connect (Canada)’s agreement with Magnetar and 180 Connect (Canada) agreed to reimburse Messrs. Balter and Slasky for such issuance, but such option was never issued. On November 9, 2007, the Company issued Magnetar a warrant exercisable for 356,952 shares of common stock of the Company in full satisfaction of amounts owing by the Company to Magnetar. Such warrant was valued at $800,000 on November 9, 2007. In connection with such issuance, the Company withheld 90,559 of the shares underlying the warrant in order to satisfy U.S. tax withholding requirements and remitted $202,961 to the Internal Revenue Service on behalf of Magnetar. Accordingly, the warrant will only be exercisable for 266,393 shares.
     Subsequent to September 30, 2007, the Company entered into a Warrant Clarification Agreement which amended the warrant agreement governing the public warrants to clarify that the Company will have no obligation, under any circumstance, to pay the registered holder of a public warrant any cash or other consideration or otherwise “net cash settle” any public warrant. A similar amendment was entered into with respect to the unit purchase option issued to the underwriters in connection with AVP’s initial public offering.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
     This Management’s Discussion and Analysis (“MD&A”’) of 180 Connect Inc. (the “Company”’) is prepared as of November 9, 2007 and should be read in conjunction with the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements and related notes for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007 and the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2006 and the related notes thereto. You should read the following discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations in conjunction with the Company’s selected consolidated historical financial information and its audited consolidated financial statements and the related notes included as an exhibit to the Company’s current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on August 30, 2007.
     Certain information included herein is forward-looking and based upon assumptions and anticipated results that are subject to risks and uncertainties. Should one or more of these uncertainties materialize or should the underlying assumptions and estimates prove incorrect, actual results may vary significantly from those expected. Reference should be made to the section entitled “Forward-Looking Statements”. Reference should also be made to the section 1A “Risk Factors” of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
     The Company provides installation, integration and fulfillment service to the home entertainment, communications and home integration services industries. Our customers include providers of satellite, cable and broadband media services as well as home builders, developers and municipalities.
     180 Connect generates substantially all of its revenue in the United States (“U.S.”) for which it receives payment in U.S. dollars. 180 Connect prepares its interim consolidated financial statements in U.S. dollars and in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial statements. Unless otherwise indicated, all dollar amounts in this MD&A are expressed in U.S. dollars. References to “$” and “US$” are to U.S. dollars.
     As used in this section, “we,” “us,” “our,” “180 Connect Inc.,” the “Company” and words of similar import refer to the consolidated business of 180 Connect Inc. (formerly known as Ad.Venture Partners, Inc.).
     Certain amounts have been reclassified from the consolidated financial statements previously presented to account for discontinued operations.
Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation
     The accompanying interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with U.S. GAAP and include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All inter-company items and transactions have been eliminated on consolidation.
     The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP 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 interim consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
     In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments necessary to fairly present the Company’s results for the interim periods presented. These unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared by management using the same accounting policies and methods of application as the most recent annual consolidated financial statements of the Company.

     On August 24, 2007 (the “Effective Date”), the Arrangement was consummated pursuant to which the Purchaser (i) acquired all of the outstanding common shares of 180 Connect (Canada) in exchange for either shares of Company common stock, exchangeable shares of Purchaser that are exchangeable into shares of Company common stock at the option of the holder, or a combination of Company common stock and exchangeable shares of Purchaser, and (ii) outstanding options to purchase 180 Connect (Canada) common shares were exchanged for options to purchase Company common stock. As a result of the closing of the Arrangement, based on an exchange ratio of 0.6, the 180 Connect (Canada) stockholders were issued an aggregate of 13,643,183 shares of Company common stock and 2,779,260 exchangeable shares. The AVP shareholders held 9,577,709 of common shares of the Company immediately after the consummation of the Arrangement. Effective upon the consummation of the Arrangement, AVP changed its name to 180 Connect Inc.
     Because the consummation of the Arrangement resulted in more than 50% of the voting securities of the Company being held by the shareholders of 180 Connect (Canada), the Arrangement has been accounted for under the reverse acquisition application of the equity recapitalization method of accounting in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for accounting and financial reporting purposes. Under this method of accounting, AVP was treated as the “acquired” company for financial reporting purposes. In accordance with guidance applicable to these circumstances, the Arrangement is considered to be a capital transaction in substance. Accordingly, for accounting purposes, the Arrangement was treated as the equivalent of 180 Connect (Canada) issuing stock for the net monetary assets of AVP, accompanied by a recapitalization. The net monetary assets of AVP were recorded at their fair value, essentially equivalent to historical costs, with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded. The accumulated deficit of 180 Connect (Canada) has been carried forward after the Closing. Operations prior to the Closing for all periods presented are those of 180 Connect (Canada). All common shares, warrants, options and earning per share amounts related to transactions and periods prior to August 24, 2007 and have been restated in these financial statements to reflect the 0.6 exchange ratio applied to 180 Connect (Canada’s) equity instruments.
     The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.
Seasonality
     The Company’s revenue is subject to seasonal fluctuations. Our customers’ subscriber growth, and thus the revenue earned by the Company, trends higher in the third and fourth quarters of the year. While subscriber activity is subject to seasonal fluctuations, it may also be affected by competition and varying amounts of promotional activity undertaken by the Company’s customers.
Selected Financial Highlights — Third Quarter Ended September 30, 2007
     For the three months ended September 30, 2007 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2006:
           Third Quarter Highlights
    Revenue grew to $102.5 million, an increase of $12.6 million, or 14.0%, compared to revenue of $89.9 million in 2006.
 
    EBITDA from continuing operations (1) was $8.4 million, an increase of $1.9 million or 29.5% compared to $6.5 million in 2006.
 
    Total cash provided by operating activities was $0.8 million, an increase of $7.1 million from the cash used by operating activities of $6.3 million in 2006.
 
    Loss from continuing operations was $8.8 million, a decrease of $13.8 million compared to income from continuing operations of $5.0 million in 2006.
 
    Net loss was $8.8 million, a decrease of $13.3 million compared to net income of $4.5 million in 2006.

Table of Contents

    Net income (loss) per share for the three months ended September 30, 2007 and September 30, 2006, respectively, is as follows:
    Net income (loss) from continuing operations, was a loss of $(0.44) per share basic and diluted compared to net income from continuing operations of $0.34 basic and $0.33 diluted per share, respectively, in 2006.
 
    Net income (loss), was a loss of $(0.44) per share basic and diluted compared to net income of $0.30 per share basic and $0.29 diluted per share, respectively, in 2006.
(1) EBITDA from continuing operations excludes depreciation, amortization of customer contracts, interest, and loan fees, (gain) loss on fair market value of derivatives, gain on the extinguishment of debt, (gain) loss on sale of investments and assets, other expense and income tax expense (recovery). EBITDA from continuing operations is a non-GAAP measure and does not have a standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP. Therefore, EBITDA from continuing operations is not likely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. See “Non-GAAP Measures.” Management believes that this term provides a better assessment of cash flow from the Company’s operations by eliminating the charges for depreciation and amortization, which are non-cash expense items, (gain) loss on sale of investments and assets, (gain) loss on fair market value of derivatives, gain on the extinguishment of debt, and other expense which is not considered to be in the normal course of operating activity. The comparative GAAP measure is income (loss) from continuing operations. A reconciliation of EBITDA from continuing operations to income (loss) from continuing operations is contained in this MD&A under “EBITDA from continuing operations”.
Comparison of Quarters Ended September 30, 2007 and September 30, 2006
Selected Financial Information
     The following is a summary of the Company’s selected consolidated financial and operating information for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006 and should be read in conjunction with the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements and related notes for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007. The amounts presented below have been reclassified to reflect the adjustments associated with the discontinued operations of the Company.

(1)   DCM consists of revenue less direct expenses and excludes general and administrative expense, foreign exchange gain, non-cash stock-based compensation, depreciation, amortization of customer contracts, interest and loan fees, (gain) loss on sale of investments and assets, other expense, gain (loss) on fair market value of derivatives, gain on extinguishment of debt, and income tax expense (recovery). DCM is a non-GAAP measure. The comparative GAAP measure is income (loss) from continuing operations. For a reconciliation of DCM to income (loss) from continuing operations, see “Direct Contribution Margin”.
Revenue
     Revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2007 increased to $102.5 million from $89.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2006. This 14.0% increase reflects continued growth in revenue resulting from DIRECTV’s initiatives to promote high definition products sales and upgrades as well as growth in our Canadian cable operations, 180 Home and Network Services businesses. Work order volume from DIRECTV for the three months ended September 30, 2007, increased by 13.9% from the three months ended September 30, 2006. In addition to the benefits of this increase in volume, there was also a rate benefit realized in the quarter due to the rate increases initiated in the second quarter of 2007. Different rates are earned for each type of service completed and the mix of services (installations, upgrades and service) impact both the revenue per call and number of service calls that may be completed.

     Revenue from the majority of our customers is recognized when work orders are closed. Our contracts with our customers also include mechanisms whereby we are not paid for certain work that is not completed within the specifications of the contract. Based upon historical payments, the Company calculates and estimates a reserve against revenue each month. For the three months ended September 30, 2007, $1.2 million (1.1% of revenue) was recorded as a deduction to revenue as compared to $1.2 million (1.4% of revenue) for the three months ended September 30, 2006.
     For the three months ended September 30, 2007, cable operations continued to grow, particularly in Rogers Communications which experienced an increase of 61%, partially offset by a reduction in revenue at certain other cable operations. Overall Cable revenues grew by $0.9 million or 6%, over the prior year. Revenue for our Network Services business increased by 37% over the prior year primarily due to our municipal fiber projects in Boise, Idaho, Ontario, and Santa Clara and Shafter, California. Revenue in our 180 Home business grew by 58% over the comparable period last year.
Direct Contribution Margin
     DCM, defined as revenue less direct operating expenses, increased by $1.4 million, or 12.6%, from $11.2 million in the quarter ended September 30, 2006 to $12.6 million in the quarter ended September 30, 2007. The increase in DCM is primarily due to revenue growth discussed above and a reduction in insurance expense which was partially offset by increased training and recruiting costs required to meet volume demands and by higher support costs associated with our customer satisfaction initiatives. DCM, as a percentage of revenue, decreased in the quarter to 12.3% in 2007 from 12.5% in 2006.
     DCM is a non-GAAP measure. The comparable GAAP measure is income (loss) from continuing operations. Loss from continuing operations of $8.8 million in the quarter ended September 30, 2007 decreased by $13.8 million compared to income from continuing operations of $5.0 million in the quarter ended September 30, 2006.

General and Administrative Expenses and Non-Cash Stock-Based Compensation
     General and administrative expenses were $4.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2007, a decrease of $0.7 million or 14.0% from the three months ended September 30, 2006. General and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue decreased to 4.0% for the three months ended September 30, 2007 from 5.2% for the three months ended September 30, 2006. The decrease in general and administrative expenses is primarily due to a decrease in consulting expense.
     Non-cash stock-based compensation was $0.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2007, as a result of the grant of employee stock options, restricted stock units, and share appreciation rights during the quarter. There was no stock-based compensation for the comparable period last year.
EBITDA from Continuing Operations
     EBITDA for the three months ended September 30, 2007 from continuing operations for the quarter ended September 30, 2007 increased to $8.4 million from $6.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2006 an increase of $1.9 million or 29.5%, primarily attributed to an increase in direct contribution margin discussed above and a decrease in general and administrative expenses. For the three months ended September 30, 2007, EBITDA includes $0.2 million in non-cash compensation expense related to the Company’s Long-Term Share Compensation Plan. Excluding this non-cash charge, EBITDA would have been $8.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2007.
     EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure. The comparable GAAP measure is income (loss) from continuing operations. Loss from continuing operations of $8.8 million in the quarter ended September 30, 2007 decreased by $13.8 million compared to income from continuing operations of $5.0 million in the quarter ended September 30, 2006, respectively.

Depreciation and Amortization of Customer Contracts
     During the three months ended September 30, 2007, depreciation expense of $3.1 million represents a decrease of $0.4 million from the three months ended September 30, 2006. This decrease is primarily attributable to the change in the estimated useful life of the Company’s vehicles from 48 months in 2006 to 60 months in 2007 in order to better reflect the useful life of the asset. Amortization of customer contracts of $0.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2007 was unchanged from the three months ended September 30, 2006.

Other Income and Expense
     Interest and loan fees were $7.8 million in the three months ended September 30, 2007 and represent an increase of $4.9 million from the three months ended September 30, 2006. This increase is due in part to a $1.4 million commitment fee and $0.2 million management fee paid to Laurus for the amendment agreement to secure additional financing to fund working capital prior to the consummation of the Arrangement. The amortization of deferred financing costs, the re-pricing of warrants, and the accretion attributed to the warrants associated with the convertible debentures and Laurus long-term debt financing also increased interest and bank charges by approximately $3.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2007.
     During the three months ended September 30, 2006, the Company recognized a gain of $1.2 million on the extinguishment of debt that it had with a previous lender. The gain was a result of the Company’s negotiations with its prior lender reducing the amount of its final payment including any accrued interest to an agreed upon amount below what had previously been recorded by the Company.
     The loss on fair value of derivative liabilities was $0.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2007; a decrease of $5.5 million compared to a gain of $4.6 million from the three months ended September 30, 2006. In the three months ended September 30, 2007, the convertible debt holders redeemed their notes for cash resulting in a gain on the fair market value of the embedded derivatives of $0.7 million, compared to a gain on the embedded derivatives of $3.4 million in the three months ended September 30, 2006. The gain on the fair value of the convertible debt warrants was $1.7 million and $1.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2007, and September 30, 2006, respectively. For the three months ended September 30, 2007 the loss on the fair value of the warrants in connection with AVP’s initial public offering was $0.6 million as compared to nil for the three months ended September 30, 2006. In connection with the Arrangement, two unrelated third parties agreed with 180 Connect (Canada) to purchase 400,000 and 100,000 shares, respectively, of AVP and to vote these shares in favor of the Arrangement at the August 24, 2007 AVP shareholders meeting. 180 Connect (Canada) agreed to a make whole formula with these individuals to be settled within 30 days of consummation of the Arrangement. The consummation of the Arrangement resulted in a $2.8 loss on the fair value of derivative liabilities for the three months ended September 30, 2007 compared to nil for the three months ended September 30, 2006.
     For the three months ended September 30, 2007 the Company had $4.4 million in other expense, primarily attributed to bonuses of $3.6 million earned by certain of the Company’s directors and employees as a result of the closing of the Arrangement and $0.8 million related to third-party support of 180 Connect (Canada)’s proposed Arrangement.
Income Tax Expense (Recovery)
     The Company recorded a current income tax expense of $0.1 million and $0.1 million recovery for the three months ended September 30, 2007 and September 30, 2006, respectively.
Income (loss) from Continuing Operations
     Loss from continuing operations for the three months ended September 30, 2007 was $8.8 million compared to income from continuing operations of $5.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2006.
Loss from Discontinued Operations
     Loss from discontinued operations for the quarter ended September 30, 2007 was nil compared to a loss from discontinued operations of $0.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2006 related to the closure of operations at certain non-profitable branches as well as certain operations where the contracts with the customers were not renewed. The revenue and expenses of these locations have been reclassified as discontinued operations for all periods presented.
Net Income (loss)
     Net loss for the quarter ended September 30, 2007 was $8.8 million compared to net income of $4.5 million for the comparable period of 2006.

Revenue
     Revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 increased to $283.6 million from $239.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006. This 18.6% increase reflects continued growth in revenue resulting from DIRECTV channeling more work through their home services provider network and increased customer demand resulting from DIRECTV’s initiatives to promote high definition products sales and upgrades as well as growth in our Canadian cable operations, 180 Home and Network Services businesses. Work order volume from DIRECTV for the nine months ended September 30, 2007, increased by 18.1% from the nine months ended September 30, 2006. In addition to the benefits of this increase in volume, there was also a rate benefit realized in the quarter due to the rate increases initiated in the second quarter of 2007. Different rates are earned for each type of service completed and the mix of services (installations, upgrades and service) impacts both the revenue per call and number of service calls that may be completed.

     Revenue from the majority of our customers is recognized when work orders are closed. Our contracts with our customers also include mechanisms whereby we are not paid for certain work that is not completed within the specifications of the contract. Based upon historical payments, the Company calculates and estimates a reserve against revenue each month. For the nine months ended September 30, 2007, $2.6 million (0.9% of revenue) was recorded as a deduction to revenue as compared to $3.1 million (1.3% of revenue) for the nine months ended September 30, 2006.
     For the nine months ended September 30, 2007, cable operations continued to grow, particularly in Rogers Communications and Time Warner which experienced increases of 69% and 41%, respectively, partially offset by a reduction in revenue at certain other cable operations. Overall Cable revenues grew by 10% year over year. Revenue for our Network Services business increased by 68% over the prior year primarily due to our municipal fiber projects in Boise, Idaho, Ontario and Santa Clara and Shafter, California and revenue of our 180 Home business grew by 178% off a relatively small base.
Direct Contribution Margin
     DCM, defined as revenue less direct operating expenses, increased by $5.6 million, or 24.2%, from $23.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 to $28.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2007. The increase in DCM is primarily due to the revenue growth discussed above and reductions in insurance expense, partially offset by an increase in fuel prices. DCM, as a percentage of revenue, increased in the period to 10.1% in 2007 from 9.7% in 2006.
     DCM is a non-GAAP measure. The comparable GAAP measure is loss from continuing operations. Loss from continuing operations of $21.6 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2007 increased by $16.4 million compared to loss from continuing operations of $5.2 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2006.

General and Administrative Expenses, Restructuring Costs and Non-Cash Stock-Based Compensation
     General and administrative expenses were $13.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2007, a decrease of $0.1 million from the nine months ended September 30, 2006. General and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue decreased to 4.9% for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 from 5.8% for the nine months ended September 30, 2006.
     In addition to the general and administrative expenses above there was a restructuring charge of approximately $0.3 million and $0.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and September 30, 2006 respectively, due to the completion of the Company’s relocation of its corporate offices to Denver, Colorado.
     Non-cash stock-based compensation was $0.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2007, as a result of the grant of employee stock options, restricted stock units, and share appreciation rights compared to $0.1 million for the comparable period last year.
Depreciation and Amortization of Customer Contracts
     For the nine months ended September 30, 2007, depreciation expense of $8.6 million represents a decrease of $1.4 million from nine months ended September 30, 2006. This decrease is primarily attributable to the change in useful life of the vehicles from 48 months in 2006 to 60 months in 2007 in order to better reflect the useful life of the asset. Amortization of customer contracts was $2.8 million and $2.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and September 30, 2006, respectively.
EBITDA from Continuing Operations
     EBITDA from continuing operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 increased to $14.6 million from $8.7 million in 2006, an increase of $5.8 million or 66.8% is primarily attributed to an increase in direct contribution margin discussed above. For the nine months ended September 30, 2007, EBITDA includes $0.2 million in non-cash compensation expense related to the Company’s Long-Term Share Compensation Plan. Excluding this non-cash charge as well as restructuring and US listing costs incurred prior to the AVP merger, EBITDA would have been $15.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2007.
     EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure. The comparable GAAP measure is loss from continuing operations. Loss from continuing operations was $21.6 million and $5.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and September 30, 2006, respectively.

Other Income and Expense
     Interest and loan fees were $14.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and represent an increase of $7.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006. This increase is due in part to a $1.4 million commitment fee and $0.2 million management fee paid to Laurus for the amendment agreement to secure additional financing to fund working capital prior to the merger. The amortization of deferred financing costs, re-pricing of warrants, accretion attributed to the warrants associated with the convertible debentures and Laurus long-term debt financing also increased interest and loan fees by approximately $6.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2007.
     During the third quarter of 2006, the Company recognized a gain of $1.2 million on the extinguishment of debt that it had with a previous lender. The gain was a result of the Company’s negotiations with its prior lender reducing the amount of its final payment including any accrued interest to an agreed upon amount below what had previously been recorded by the Company.
     The (gain) loss on sale of investments and assets reflects a $1.6 million increase to the loss from continuing operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 as compared to the same period last year. In the first quarter of 2006, we sold our interest in Control F-1 Corporation (“Control F-1”) to Computer Associates International, Inc. and Computer Associates Canada Company for net proceeds of $1.3 million, which was recognized as a pre-tax gain of $1.3 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2006. The investment had been previously written down to nil in 2004 due to prevailing market conditions. In addition, the Company had a loss on the disposal of assets of $0.5 million and $0.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and September 30, 2006, respectively.
     The loss on fair value of derivative liabilities was $5.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2007, compared to a gain on fair value of derivative liabilities of $3.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006. In the third quarter of 2007, the convertible debt holders redeemed the convertible debt for cash. The loss on the fair market value of the embedded derivatives for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 was $2.6 million, compared to a gain on the embedded derivatives of $2.8 million in the comparable period in 2006. The gain on the fair value of the convertible debt warrants was $0.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 compared to a gain of $0.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006. For the nine months ended September 30, 2007, the loss on the fair value of the public warrants was $0.6 million as compared to nil for the nine months ended September 30, 2006. In connection with the Arrangement, two unrelated third parties agreed with180 Connect (Canada) to purchase 400,000 and 100,000 shares, respectively, of AVP and to vote these shares in favor of the Arrangement at the August 24, 2007 AVP shareholders meeting. 180 Connect (Canada) agreed to a make whole formula with these individuals to be settled within 30 days of consummation of the Arrangement. The consummation of the Arrangement resulted in a $2.8 loss on the fair value of derivative liabilities for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 compared to nil for the nine months ended September 30, 2006.

Table of Contents

     For the three months ended September 30, 2007 the Company had $4.4 million in other expense, primarily attributed to bonuses of $3.6 million earned by certain of the Company’s directors and employees as a result of the closing of the Arrangement and $0.8 million related to third-party support of 180 Connect (Canada)’s proposed Arrangement.
Income Tax Expense (Recovery)
     The Company recorded a current income tax expense of $0.4 million and $0.1 million recovery for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and September 30, 2006 respectively.
Loss from Continuing Operations
     Loss from continuing operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 was $21.6 million compared to loss from continuing operations of $5.2 million for the comparable period of 2006.
Loss from Discontinued Operations
     Loss from discontinued operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 was $0.1 million compared to loss from discontinued operations of $1.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 related to the closure of operations at certain non-profitable branches as well as certain operations where the contracts with the customers were not renewed. The revenue and expenses of these locations have been reclassified as discontinued operations for all periods presented.
Net Loss
     Net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 was $21.7 million compared to a net loss of $7.0 million for the comparable period of 2006.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
     The Company’s primary sources of liquidity are its total cash provided by its operating activities and its borrowings under its credit facilities. Cash provided by continuing operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007 was $5.3 million and $4.3 million, respectively.
     On March 13, 2007, we entered into the Arrangement Agreement with AVP. On August 24, 2007, the Arrangement was consummated and as a result, 180 Connect (Canada) became an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of AVP, which was re-named “180 Connect Inc.”. The Company has applied for listing on the American Stock Exchange.
     As a result of the transaction, the Company received $37.9 million in proceeds and incurred $7.0 million in issuance costs. The consummation of the Arrangement constituted an event of default under 180 Connect (Canada)’s convertible debentures. In the third quarter of 2007, the holders of the convertible debentures exercised their right to redeem the convertible debentures in full. The Company paid the holders of the convertible debentures $10,393,577, which included outstanding principal, and a 20% redemption premium excluding accrued but unpaid interest. On August 24, 2007, 180 Connect (Canada) paid Laurus $5.0 million principal on the term note upon the consummation of the Arrangement. The Company also used $0.2 million of the merger proceeds to purchase 500,000 shares of treasury stock and $2.8 million in settlement of derivative liabilities. The remaining proceeds will be used to fund working capital and corporate expenses.

Table of Contents

     On August 1, 2006, 180 Connect (Canada), through its wholly-owned subsidiary 180 Connect, Inc. (“180 Connect Nevada”), entered into a Security and Purchase Agreement with Laurus for the refinancing of its long-term debt. The original agreement provided up to $57 million of debt comprised of a $37 million revolving credit and over-advance facility and a $20 million term facility, with an interest rate of prime plus 3% on the revolving credit facility, subject to a minimum interest rate of 10%, an interest rate of prime plus 5% on any over-advance under the revolving credit facility, subject to a minimum interest rate of 11% and an interest rate of prime plus 5% on the term facility, subject to a minimum interest rate of 12%. For the period from August 1, 2006 to July 31, 2007, 180 Connect (Canada) was able to draw in excess of the eligible trade receivables and inventory an over advance amount up to $9 million but not to exceed an aggregate amount of $37 million. Availability under the revolving facility fluctuates daily based on receivables and inventory. After July 31, 2007, the over-advance became part of the revolving facility and this date was further extended to August 24, 2007. As of November 2, 2007, 180 Connect (Canada) had availability of $5.1 million under the revolving facility, and the total balance outstanding was $21.7 million. Monthly repayments on the term loan of $666,667 commenced February 1, 2007. Repayment of 180 Connect (Canada)’s indebtedness to Laurus is secured by all of the assets of 180 Connect Nevada.
     180 Connect (Canada) is not subject to any financial covenants with respect to the credit facilities but is subject to other covenants including certain restrictions on its subsidiaries on assuming or guaranteeing additional indebtedness, forgiving any indebtedness, issuing any preferred stock, purchasing stock (other than of a subsidiary), making loans other than loans to employees or to its subsidiaries, entering into a merger, consolidation or reorganization, materially changing the nature of its business, changing its accounting practices and disposing of its assets. In addition, the failure to make required payments under the facilities or other indebtedness, the failure to adhere to a covenant or the occurrence of material adverse changes to its business, bankruptcy, certain changes to its ownership or Board of Directors, among other events, could result in an event of default under the facilities. The Company’s revolving credit facility (the ‘Revolver”) requires a lockbox arrangement, which provides for all receipts to be swept daily to reduce borrowings outstanding under the credit facility. This arrangement, combined with the existence of a subjective acceleration clause in the revolving credit facility, requires that the borrowings under the Revolver be classified as a current liability on the balance sheet in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 95-22, “Balance Sheet Classification of Borrowings Outstanding under Revolving Credit Agreements that Include Both a Subjective Acceleration Clause and a Lock-Box Arrangement” (“EITF 95-22”). The amount outstanding under the Revolver was previously classified as long-term debt as of September 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006 and the balance sheets have been restated to correct the classification of the amounts due under the Revolver to current portion of long-term debt as of September 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006 increasing the current portion of long-term debt by $17,122,530 and $20,534,422 respectively to $23,939,882 and $26,502,096 respectively from the amount previously reported amounts of $6,817,35 and $5,967,674 respectively. These restatements had no impact on the previously reported consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss), shareholders’ equity, or cash flows for the period and year ended September 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006 respectively.
     The acceleration clause could allow the lender to forego additional advances should they determine there has been a material adverse change in the Company’s financial position or prospects reasonably likely to result in a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, condition (financial or otherwise), operations, performance or properties. The Company believes that no such material adverse change has occurred; further, as of March 27, 2008, the Company’s lender had not informed the Company that any such event had occurred.
     As of September 30, 2007, 180 Connect (Canada) was in compliance with the covenants of its credit facilities. 180 Connect (Canada) obtained a waiver from Laurus with regards to the Arrangement as it may have constituted a change of control as defined in section 19(1) of the Security and Purchase Agreement.
     In addition, in August, 2006, 180 Connect (Canada) issued a warrant to Laurus to purchase up to 1,200,000 common shares for nominal consideration of CDN$0.01 per share, having a term of seven years. On April 2, 2007, Laurus exercised its right under the warrant to purchase the 1,200,000 common shares. Laurus agreed not to sell any common shares issued upon exercise of the warrant until July 31, 2007. Thereafter, Laurus may, at its election and assuming exercise of the warrant, sell up to 150,000 common shares per calendar quarter (on a cumulative basis) over each of the following eight quarters, subject to applicable securities laws restrictions and limitations.

     On March 22, 2006, 180 Connect (Canada) completed a private placement to a group of institutional investors. For an aggregate purchase price of $10.7 million, the investors purchased convertible debentures and warrants to purchase 942,060 common shares. The convertible debentures accrued interest at a rate of 9.33% per annum, payable quarterly, in arrears, based on a 360-day year. The debentures were to mature on March 22, 2011. In addition, the debentures were to accelerate to maturity upon the occurrence of a default on the debentures by 180 Connect (Canada). The terms of the debentures allowed the investors, at their discretion, to convert all or part of the debentures into its common shares. The aggregate number of common shares to be delivered upon such conversion was approximately 2.7 million shares, subject to adjustment in accordance with the terms of the debentures and subject to additional contractual limitations as described in the debentures. During the second quarter of 2007, one of the institutional investors of the convertible debentures and warrants exercised its option to convert in total $2,024,785 of principal under the 9.33% convertible debentures into 510,000 common shares. The consummation of the Arrangement constituted an event of default under 180 Connect (Canada)’s convertible debentures. In the third quarter of 2007, the lenders exercised their right to redeem the convertible debentures in full. The Company paid the holders of the convertible debentures $10,393,577, which included outstanding principal, and a 20% redemption premium excluding accrued but unpaid interest.
     The warrants to purchase 942,060 common shares issued to the investors in the private placement are exercisable until March 21, 2010. The exercise price of the warrants is $4.331 subject to adjustment in accordance with the terms of the warrants (which adjustment is limited and capped as described in the warrants). The warrants may be exercised through a cashless exercise if there is no effective registration statement covering the resale of the underlying shares.
     180 Connect (Canada) entered into agreements with third party leasing companies to lease approximately 2,600 vehicles pursuant to its fleet expansion program. Under these agreements, 180 Connect (Canada)’s lease payment obligations amounted to $43.7 million for the periods of 2005 through 2009. As at September 30, 2007, 180 Connect (Canada) had a remaining contractual capital obligation of $25.6 million. These vehicles have been recorded as capital leases.
     On July 2, 2007, 180 Connect (Canada) entered into an amendment agreement with Laurus securing additional interim financing to fund working capital until August 24, 2007. Pursuant to the terms of the agreement, Laurus agreed to provide an additional $8.0 million to 180 Connect (Canada) as an increase to the current $37.0 million revolving loan, for a total revolving loan of $45.0 million. As part of this arrangement, Laurus also agreed to extend the maturity of the existing $9.0 million over-advance letter on a revolving loan from July 31, 2007 until August 24, 2007. At August 24, 2007, 180 Connect (Canada) had no outstanding borrowings under either the additional $8.0 million revolving loan or the existing $9.0 million over-advance facility.
     In connection with the amendment agreement certain AVP shareholders agreed to provide a limited recourse guaranty for the additional financing Laurus provided to 180 Connect (Canada) by placing $7.0 million in a brokerage account pledged to Laurus which may be used solely to purchase AVP shares.
     Laurus also agreed to loan $10.0 million to a special purpose corporation for the purpose of purchasing shares of AVP common stock. The special purpose corporation is a third-party arms-length corporation to both 180 Connect (Canada) and AVP. Neither the special purpose corporation nor Laurus agreed to make any specific amount of purchases or to vote any shares purchased in any specific manner in connection with the Arrangement.
     As consideration for the guaranty and pledge, 180 Connect (Canada) agreed to reimburse such AVP Shareholders up to $150,000 for their fees and expenses in connection with the guaranty and pledge.
     On July 2, 2007 in connection with the amendment, Laurus received warrants to purchase 600,000 common shares of the Company with a five-year term, exercisable at $4.35 per share, the adjusted market price at the time of issue, with the shares issuable thereunder, subject to a one-year lock-up. On August 24, 2007 an additional 250,000 AVP warrants were issued to Laurus upon consummation of the Arrangement. Laurus received a 2.5% management fee on the $8.0 million increase to the revolver or $200,000 and a $1.4 million commitment fee in the third quarter of 2007.
     During the third quarter of 2007, the Company and Laurus entered into a settlement with regard to a dispute over an alleged misrepresentation and event of default under the provisions of the Laurus debt agreements that Laurus alleged occurred as a result of the repayment of the convertible dentures after consummation of the Arrangement Agreement.

Table of Contents

     Under the settlement, the Company agreed to reduce the exercise price of the 850,000 warrants that Laurus holds in the Company. Of the original 600,000 warrants issued to Laurus on July 2, 2007, 450,000 warrants were re-priced with the exercise prices reduced from $4.35 to $0.01 and 150,000 warrants were re-priced with the exercise prices reduced from $4.35 to $3.00. Laurus has agreed not to sell any common shares of the Company issuable upon exercise of the 600,000 warrants for a period of twelve months following the date of issuance of the warrants. The 250,000 AVP warrants issued on August 24, 2007 were re-priced with an exercise price reduced from $4.01 to $3.00.
Cash Flow from Operating Activities
     For the three months ended September 30, 2007 and September 30, 2006, cash provided by (used in) operating activities was $0.8 million and $(6.3) million, respectively. In the third quarter of 2007, accounts payable and accrued liabilities increased by $19.9 primarily due to a seasonal increase in the equipment payable with DIRECTV. Accounts receivable increased by $11.0 million primarily due to an increase in the trade and equipment receivable with DIRECTV primarily attributed to higher revenue, and inventory increased by $3.6 million primarily attributed to more advanced equipment on hand. Insurance premium deposits were increased by approximately $3.3 million due to the Company’s payment arrangement with its insurance carrier. The loss on the settlement of derivative liabilities of $2.8 million was related to the re-purchase of common shares in connection with the agreements to have two third-parties vote their AVP shares in favor of the Arrangement at the August 24, 2007 AVP shareholders meeting. Other changes in non-cash working capital balances related to operations attributed to the remainder of the increase.
     In the third quarter of 2006, accounts receivable increased $13.9 million as a result of increased revenues, and inventory increased $5.0 million as a result of higher penetrations of advanced equipment partially offset by an increase in accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $9.5 million related to the Company’s payment terms.
     For the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and September 30, 2006, cash provided by (used in) operating activities was $(0.1) million and $0.2 million, respectively. In 2007, accounts payable and accrued liabilities increased by $2.6 primarily due to an increase in the equipment payable with DIRECTV. Restricted cash requirements were reduced by $2.6 million, primarily as a result of the reduction in the insurance collateral requirements due to the Company’s continued satisfaction of its insurance obligations. Insurance premium deposits were reduced by approximately $1.3 million due to the Company’s payment arrangement with its insurance carrier. These increases in operating cash flow were offset by an increase of $2.5 million in inventory primarily attributed to more advanced equipment on hand. Accounts receivable increased by $3.1 million primarily due to higher revenue at the end of the quarter. The loss on settlement of derivative liabilities of $2.8 million was related to the re-purchase of common shares in connection with the agreements to have two third-parties vote their AVP shares in favor of the Arrangement at the August 24, 2007 AVP shareholders meeting. Other changes in non-cash working capital balances related to operations attributed to the remainder of the increase.
     In 2006, accounts receivable decreased by $4.3 million as a result of a new bi-weekly payment program with DIRECTV. Additionally, inventory decreased by $2.5 million as a result of improved inventory management and reduction in equipment cost. These increases were more than offset by a decrease in accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $6.2 million related to the Company’s payment terms and an increase in insurance premium deposits of $2.8 million due to the Company’s payment arrangement with its insurance carrier.
Cash Flow from Investing Activities
     Our historical investing activities consisted primarily of the purchase of property, plant and equipment and business acquisitions and divestments.
     For the quarter ended September 30, 2007 and September 30, 2006, cash used in investing activities was $0.4 million and $0.6 million, respectively, from the purchase of property, plant, and equipment. For the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and September 30, 2006 cash used in investing activities were $2.1 million and $0.8 million, respectively. In the nine months ended September 30, 2006, the Company realized net proceeds of $1.3 million for the sale of our remaining interest in Control F-1 which was offset by the purchase of property, plant and equipment of $2.1 million.

Cash Flow from Financing Activities
     Our financing activities have historically consisted primarily of the use of revolving lines of credit, term loans, debentures, capital leases and the issuance of equity. For the three months ended September 30, 2007 and September 30, 2006, cash provided by financing activities was $0.2 million and $3.4 million, respectively. As a result of the merger with AVP, the Company received $37.9 million in proceeds and incurred $7.0 million of issuance costs. The consummation of the Arrangement constituted an event of default under 180 Connect (Canada)’s convertible debentures. In the third quarter of 2007, the lenders exercised their right to redeem the convertible debentures in full. The Company paid the holders of the convertible debentures $10,393,577, which included outstanding principal, and a 20% redemption premium excluding accrued but unpaid interest. On August 24, 2007, the Company paid Laurus $5.0 million principal on the term note upon the consummation of the Arrangement. In the third quarter of 2007, the Company reduced its long-term debt by an additional $13.4 million, of which $2.0 million were scheduled term payments. The Company also purchased 500,000 shares of treasury stock for $0.2 million and made $1.8 million in scheduled vehicle lease payments.
     In the third quarter of 2006, the refinancing of the Company’s long term debt provided $42.1 million which was used to extinguish its previous debt of $32.9 million plus the issuance costs of $3.4 million. $3.5 million was used for the payment of capital leases for the Company’s new fleet.
     For the nine months ended September 30, 2007, and September 30, 2006, cash provided by (used in) financing activities was $0.3 million and $(2.3) million, respectively. As a result of the merger with AVP, the Company received $37.9 million in proceeds and incurred $7.0 million in issuance costs. In the third quarter of 2007, the convertible debt was redeemed in full at an amount of 120% of the outstanding principal in the amount of $10.4 million, excluding any accrued interest. On August 24, 2007, the Company paid Laurus $5.0 million principal on the term note upon the consummation of the Arrangement. For the nine months ended September 30, 2007 the Company has repaid $10.3 million in term debt and $4.0 million in other long-term debt. The Company also purchased 500,000 shares of treasury stock at cost of $0.2 million and made $9.2 million in scheduled vehicle lease payments. The refinancing of approximately 1,020 vehicles with a third-party leasing company under a capital lease resulted in net proceeds of approximately $3.5 million.
     During the nine months ended September 30, 2006, the refinancing of the long term debt provided $42.1 million used to extinguish its previous debt of $32.9 million plus the issuance costs of $3.4 million. In 2006, the Company completed a private placement of $10.7 million of convertible debentures and warrants. This was offset by the payment of $11.4 million for capital lease obligations primarily related to the Company’s new fleet and the repayment of a portion of the Company’s long-term debt pursuant to agreements with the Company’s lenders.
     As of September 30, 2007, the Company does not have any restricted cash invested in asset backed commercial paper. An assumed one percentage point increase or decrease in interest rates would have the effect of increasing or decreasing interest expense by approximately $0.1 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2007.
     The working capital deficiency at September 30, 2007 was due, primarily, to the 30-45 day payment terms for inventory purchased from DIRECTV and the approximately 20-day receivable terms from DIRECTV for that inventory when it is installed in the consumer’s home.
     We believe that cash flow from continuing operations and availability under existing credit facilities will be sufficient to meet our short-term and long-term requirements for ongoing operations and planned growth. However, we derive a significant portion of our revenue from a limited number of customers. See “Risk Factors” in section 1A of this Report Form 10-Q. A decision by a major customer to discontinue, in whole or in part, use of the Company’s services in the future may adversely affect the Company’s capital resources.

The Company estimated interest expense based on current interest rates, current balances and scheduled repayments. The amounts due have been restated from the amounts previously presented as a result of the reclassification of balances due under the Laurus Revolver facility being reclassified to current.
 
(2)   Capital lease obligations include interest in the table above.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
     There were no off-balance sheet transactions entered into during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007. Off-balance sheet arrangements include any contractual arrangement with an entity not reported on a consolidated basis with us. We did not have any obligations under guaranteed contracts for financing instruments, a retained or contingent interest in assets transferred to an unconsolidated entity, any obligations under derivative interests or any special purpose entity transactions.
Transactions with Related Parties
     During the second quarter of 2006, the Company entered into a one-year arrangement with a then member of its Board of Directors for professional services to be provided in connection with the Company’s long-term debt refinancing and strategic alternatives process. The agreement provides for maximum base compensation of $300,000. During 2006, in addition to base salary payments, the director earned and was paid $240,000 in connection with the Company’s debt refinancing and a $210,000 discretionary bonus, of which $60,000 was paid in 2006 and $150,000 was paid in the first quarter of 2007 and $185,000 was paid in the third quarter of 2007.
Forward-Looking Statements
     This MD&A contains forward-looking statements which reflect management’s expectations regarding the Company’s future growth, results of operations, performance and business prospects and opportunities. Statements about the Company’s future plans and intentions, results, levels of activity, performance, goals or achievements or other future events constitute forward-looking statements. Wherever possible, words such as “may”, “should”, “could”, “expect”, “plan”, “intend”, “anticipate”, “believe”, “estimate”, “predict” or “potential” or the negative or other variations of these words, or other similar words or phrases, have been used to identify these forward-looking statements. These statements reflect management’s current beliefs and are based on information currently available to management. Forward-looking statements involve significant risk, uncertainties and assumptions. Many factors, including those discussed under section 1A “Risk Factors” of this Report Form 10-Q could cause actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from the results discussed or implied in the forward-looking statements. These factors should be considered carefully and prospective investors should not place undue reliance on the forward-looking statements. Although the forward-looking statements contained in this MD&A are based upon what management believes to be reasonable assumptions, the Company cannot assure investors that actual results will be consistent with these forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are made as of the date of this MD&A, and the Company assumes no obligation to update or revise them to reflect new events or circumstances, except as required by law.

Non-GAAP Measures
     The term “Direct Contribution Margin” (“DCM”) consists of revenue less direct expense and excludes general and administrative expense, foreign exchange loss (gain), non-cash stock-based compensation, (gain) loss in sale of investments and assets, depreciation, amortization of customer contracts, interest and loan fees, (gain) loss on fair market value of derivatives, gain on extinguishment of debt, other expense, and income tax expense (recovery). DCM, as referred to in this discussion and analysis, is a non-GAAP measure which does not have any standardized meaning prescribed by U.S. GAAP and is therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. We believe that this term provides a better assessment of the contribution of the field operations dealing directly with our customers’ subscribers by eliminating: (1) the general and administrative costs that are not part of the direct costs of generating revenue; (2) the charge for customer contracts and depreciation which are non-cash expense items; and (3) (gain) loss on sale of assets, (gain) loss on fair market value of derivatives, gain on extinguishment of debt, and other expense, which are not considered to be in the normal course of operating activity. Investors should be cautioned, however, that DCM should not be construed as an alternative to income (loss) from continuing operations determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP as an indicator of our performance. For a reconciliation of DCM to the comparable U.S. GAAP measure, loss from continuing operations, see “Direct Contribution Margin”.
     The term “EBITDA from continuing operations’’ refers to income from continuing operations before deducting depreciation, amortization of customer contracts, (gain) loss in sale of investments and assets, interest and loan fees, (gain) loss on fair market value of derivatives, gain on extinguishment of debt, other expense, and income tax expense (recovery). EBITDA from continuing operations, as referred to in this MD&A, is a non-GAAP measure which does not have any standardized meaning prescribed by U.S. GAAP and is therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. Management believes that EBITDA from continuing operations provides a better assessment of cash flow from the Company’s operations by eliminating: (1) the charge for depreciation, and amortization of customer contracts which are non-cash expense items and (2) (gain) loss on sale of assets, (gain) loss on fair market value of derivatives, gain on extinguishment of debt, and other expense, which are not considered to be in the normal course of operating activity. In addition, financial analysts and investors use a multiple of EBITDA from continuing operations for valuing companies within the same sector, in order to eliminate the differences in accounting treatment from one company to the next. Given that the Company is in a growth stage, we believe the focus on EBITDA from continuing operations gives the investor or reader of the Company’s consolidated financial statements and MD&A more insight into the operating capabilities of management and its utilization of the Company’s operating assets. Management further believes that EBITDA from continuing operations is also the best metric for measuring the Company’s valuation. Investors should be cautioned, however, that EBITDA from continuing operations should not be construed as an alternative to income (loss) from continuing operations determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP as an indicator of the Company’s performance. For a reconciliation of EBITDA from continuing operations to the comparable GAAP measure, being income (loss) from continuing operations, see “EBITDA from Continuing Operations”.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
     The Company is exposed to market risk related to changes in interest rates and fluctuations in foreign currency rates. The Company’s long-term debt is a variable rate credit facility that exposes the Company to interest rate risk. The interest rates on the Company’s long-term debt range from prime plus 3% to prime plus 5%, subject to a minimum interest rate of 10% to 12%, and are therefore subject to risk relating to interest rate fluctuations. An assumed one percentage point increase in interest rates would have the effect of increasing interest expense by approximately $0.1 million. The company has Canadian subsidiaries included in its consolidated statements of operations and consolidated balance sheets and is subject to fluctuations in the exchange rate of the Canadian dollar to the U.S. dollar.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
     Our management carried out an evaluation, with the participation of our chief executive officer and principal financial and accounting officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2007. Based upon that evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial and accounting officer initially concluded that as of September 30, 2007, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

Table of Contents

     Subsequently, due to the existence of a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting related to the proper classification of our debt, as discussed in the following paragraph, our management carried out an additional evaluation, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2007. Based upon that evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of September 30, 2007.
     Our management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in, Internal Control-Integrated Framework, issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. This assessment identified a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting related to the lack of appropriate review in determining the proper classification of our debt. Specifically, we failed to identify and properly apply the requirements of Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 95-22, “Balance Sheet Classification of Borrowings Outstanding under Revolving Credit Agreements that Include Both a Subjective Acceleration Clause and a Lock-Box Arrangement” (“EITF 95-22”). Based on this assessment, management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was ineffective as December 31, 2007.
Change in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
     On August 24, 2007, we completed a plan of arrangement, at which time 180 Connect (Canada) became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. We are currently in the process of assessing and integrating 180 Connect (Canada)’s internal control over financial reporting into our internal control over financial reporting. Other than with respect to such integration and the issue noted above, there has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended September 30, 2007 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, internal control over financial reporting.
