NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)

NOTE 1: BASIS OF PRESENTATION

ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements for Stinger Systems, Inc. (the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by United States generally accepted accounting principles for complete consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. All such adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements as of December 31, 2008. Operating results as of June 30, 2009 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 2009.

Management of the Company has determined that the Company’s operations are comprised of one reportable segment as that term is defined by SFAS No. 131 “Disclosures About Enterprise and Related Information ”, and therefore, no separate segment disclosures have been included in the accompanying notes to the financial statements.

All amounts set forth in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q have been adjusted to reflect a 1-for 5 reverse stock split completed on January 17, 2009.

Embedded Derivatives

The conversion feature of the convertible note payable and warrants issued in connection with the convertible note payable issued by the Company in August 2007, February 2008 and September 2009 was accounted for as an embedded derivative and was valued on the transaction date using the Black-Scholes pricing model. At the end of each quarterly reporting date, the value of the derivatives are evaluated and adjusted to current fair value. At June 30, 2009, the Company’s derivative valuation liability totaled $4,560,000.

Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications have been made to the 2008 consolidated financial statements in order to conform to the 2009 presentation.

Loss per Share

Basic loss per share is determined based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period. Diluted loss per share is the same as basic loss per share because all common share equivalents are excluded from the calculation, because their effect is anti-dilutive. The weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the three month period ended June 30, 2009 and June 30, 2008 was 4,523,917 and 3,991,346, respectively. The weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the six month period ended June 30, 2009 and June 30, 2008 was 4,300,166 and 3,866,052, respectively. Options

and warrants to purchase 11,662,486 and 4,107,108 shares of common stock were outstanding at June 30, 2009 and June 30, 2008, respectively, and were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share as the effect of these options and warrants would have been anti-dilutive.

NOTE 2: USE OF ESTIMATES

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts in the consolidated financial statements. Therefore, actual results could differ materially from those estimates used in the preparation of these financial statements.

NOTE 3: REVENUE RECOGNITION

The Company recognizes revenue when delivery of the product has occurred or services have been rendered, title has been transferred, the price is fixed and collectability is reasonably assured. We warrant our products against manufacturing defects for a period of one year. As of June 30, 2009, we had no significant warranty claims on products sold. Once significant amounts of sales of the new model our new stun gun commence, we expect to make an accrual for warranty claims based on our sales.

NOTE 4: INVENTORIES

Inventories are stated at the lower of average cost or market. Inventories consisted of the following at June 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008:


	June 30,		December 31,

NOTE 5: STOCK BASED COMPENSATION

Effective January 1, 2006, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (revised 2004), “ Share-Based Payment ” (SFAS 123(R)) which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all stock-based awards made to employees and directors, including stock option grants, based on estimated fair values. SFAS 123(R) supersedes previous accounting under Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, “ Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees ” (APB 25), for periods beginning in fiscal year 2006.

SFAS 123(R) requires companies to estimate the fair value of stock-based awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model. The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as expense over the requisite service periods in our Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company adopted SFAS 123(R) using the modified prospective transition method which requires the application of the accounting standard starting on January 1, 2006, without restatement of prior years. Stock options were granted at an exercise price equal to the Company’s stock price at the date of grant.

stock options was recognized in the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements as the difference in the exercise price of the option and the Company’s stock price at the date of grant.

The Company has selected the Black-Scholes option-pricing model as the most appropriate method for determining the estimated fair value for stock-based awards.

The fair value of the stock-based awards was estimated using the Black-Scholes model with the following weighted average assumptions:


	Three Months Ended					Six Months Ended
	June 30,					June 30,
	2009		2008			2009		2008

the value of the derivatives are evaluated and adjusted to current fair value. At June 30, 2009, the Company’s derivative valuation liability totaled $4,560,000.

NOTE 9: LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The process of developing and commercializing the Company’s products requires significant research and development, engineering, testing, marketing and sales efforts, and manufacturing capabilities. These activities, together with the Company’s general and administrative expenses, require significant investments and are expected to continue to result in operating losses for the foreseeable future while the Company continues to introduce its Stinger product line to the marketplace. To date, revenues recognized from its current products have not been sufficient for the Company to achieve or sustain profitability. The Company believes it is unlikely that its existing cash resources will be sufficient to fund its operations at its planned levels of research, development and sales and marketing activities. Execution of the Company’s current strategies will require it to raise additional capital through debt or equity transactions in order to finance its operations in the future. The Company believes that additional financing may be available to it, but there can be no guarantee that financing will be available on acceptable terms or at all. If adequate funds are not available, the Company may be required to delay, reduce the scope of or eliminate its research and development programs, reduce its commercialization efforts, or effect changes to its facilities or personnel, and its ability to operate as a going concern may be adversely impacted.

NOTE 10: SUBSEQUENT EVENT

On July 14, 2009, the Company closed two private placement transactions (the “July 2009 Offerings”) with two institutional investors pursuant to which the Company issued and sold to the institutional investors two senior secured convertible note (the “July 2009 Notes”) in an aggregate principal amount of $650,000 and warrants to purchase 4,062,500 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “July 2009 Warrants”). The July 2009 Notes are convertible into 3,250,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at a price of $0.20 per share. Under the terms of the July 2009 Notes, the Company, at its option, may pay any portion of the interest then due in cash or may elect to issue shares of the Company’s common stock. The July 2009 Warrants are exercisable immediately at a price of $0.20 per share. As a result of the issuance of the July 2009 Notes, the August 2007 Note, the September 2008 Note and February 2009 have all had their conversion price along with the conversion price of the warrants associated with these Notes, reset to $0.20 per share.

Neither the shares to be issued upon conversion of the July 2009 Notes nor upon exercise of the July 2009 Warrants have been registered under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”), as amended, and may not be offered or sold in the United States in the absence of an effective registration statement or exemption from the registration requirements. Midtown Partners & Co., LLC (“Midtown”) acted as placement agent for the July 2009 Offering. The Company paid Midtown a cash fee equal to $20,000 and issued to Midtown a warrant to purchase 750,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at a price of $0.20 per share. The July 2009 Notes and the July 2009 Warrants were offered and sold to an “accredited investor” (as defined in section 501(a) of Regulation D) pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act.

Executive Summary

Stinger Systems is in the business of producing and marketing less-lethal electronic restraint products to law enforcement, correctional facilities, professional security and military sectors. The Company’s products include the Ice-Shield electronic immobilization riot shield and the Bandit / REACT system, an electronic immobilizing restraint. The Company’s primary focus is the Stinger S-200 Electronic Immobilization Device (EID) and the Company’s success is largely dependent upon the commercialization of this product.

The Company launched a mass marketing campaign during the fourth quarter of 2007. The Company’s ability to generate future revenues is dependent upon the overall market reception of the Stinger product line and the volume of production and sales that the Company is able to generate. It may be the case that further modifications of the Stinger product line projectile stun gun will be required.

The Company plans to use third parties to manufacture some components for its products. Except for ongoing purchase orders, the Company is under no contractual obligation with these parties. Because the Stinger projectile stun gun is classified as a firearm and subject to various regulations of the U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms (ATF), the Company ships all products from its production and manufacturing facility and maintains proper records. While the Company hopes to manufacture the Stinger and its components in the United States, there can be no assurances that it will continue to do so. The Company believes that electronics are easily sourced throughout the world and the Company will continually seek best pricing and highest quality components for its products. The Company expects to continue handling the shipment of its products.

The Company’s success will be dependent upon its ability to attract high quality distributors to market its products. To date, the Company has been able to attract distributors and manufacturer’s representative groups with a solid track record for selling firearms to the law enforcement, correctional, and/or military community. The Company is unable to provide forecasts as to the number of Stingers it anticipates selling.

At the present time, the Company does not generate sufficient revenues from its operations to pay its operating costs. Management believes that the Company will need additional outside sources of funding in the future to continue the production and promotion of its products.

Results of Operations

Revenues. Revenue decreased $22,548 or 10% to $192,855 for the three months ended June 30, 2009 compared to $215,403 for the three months ended June 30, 2008, and increased $67,905 or 17% to $465,865 for the six months ended June 30, 2009 compared to $397,960 for the six months ended June 30, 2008. The decrease for the three months ended June 30, 2009 to 2008 was due to the Company’s ability to fill orders for the three months ended June 30, 2009. This offset the increase of revenue during the first three months of 2009 as compared to the first three months of 2008.

Cost of Goods Sold. Cost of Goods Sold decreased $52,636 or 22% to $184,910 for the three months ended June 30, 2009 compared to $237,546 for the three months ended June 30, 2008, and increased $54,773 or 13% to $484,235 for the six months ended June 30, 2009 compared to $429,462 for the six months ended June 30, 2008. The decrease for the three months ended June 30, 2009 was due to the decrease in sales and the increase for the six months ended June 30, 2009 was due to increased production and to an inventory write-off for obsolete raw materials in our inventory. The cost of production for the periods ended June 30, 2009 and June 30, 2008, includes manufacturing costs such as materials, labor and identifiable overhead related to finished goods and components.

Gross Margin . Gross margin increased $30,088 to $7,945 for the three months ended June 30, 2009 compared to $(22,143) for the three months ended June 30, 2008 and increased $13,132 to $(18,370) for the six months ended June 30, 2009 compared to $(31,502) for the six months ended June 30, 2008. The increase in gross margin was principally due to reduced costs to produce our product that mitigated the costs of goods sold related to an inventory write-off for obsolete raw materials in our inventory.

Selling Expenses. Selling expenses decreased $84,350 to $49,150 for the three months ended June 30, 2009 compared to $133,500 for the three months ended June 30, 2008 and decreased $166,385 to $124,070 for the six months ended June 30, 2009 compared to $290,455 for the six months ended June 30, 2008. The decrease for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009 was due to the restructuring of our sales model and other related efforts to promote current products and the branding of the Stinger name.

General and Administrative Expenses. General and Administrative (G&A) expenses decreased $984,931 or 67% to $488,833 for the three months ended June 30, 2009 compared to $1,473,764 for the three months ended June 30, 2008 and decreased $2,653,676 to $1,282,157 for the six months ended June 30, 2009 compared to $3,935,833 for the six months ended June 30, 2008. The decrease in G&A expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009 as compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 is primarily due to the decrease of stock option expense and insurance expense. Additionally, other operating expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2009, include legal and professional fees of $69,726 and other costs in the amount of $106,012, compared to legal and professional fees of $102,637, stock option expense in the amount of $702,274, insurance expense of $43,885 and other costs in the amount of $153,489 for the three months ended June 30, 2008. Other operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2009, include legal and professional fees of $203,715, insurance expense of $1,197, and other costs in the amount of $296,248, compared to legal and professional fees of $221,752, stock option expense in the amount of $2,308,591, insurance expense of $97,054, and other costs in the amount of $360,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2008.

Research and Development Expenses. Research and Development (R&D) expenses decreased $15,601 or 26% to $45,538 for the three months ended June 30, 2009, compared to $61,139 for the three months ended June 30, 2008 and decreased $933 or 1% to $130,301 for the six months ended June 30, 2009 compared to $131,234 for the six months ended June 30, 2008. The Company’s decrease in R&D expense is attributable to costs associated with future generations of the projectile stun gun while the small decrease for the six months ended is due to the advanced stage of development in comparison to last year.

Interest Income. Interest income decreased $1,308 to $0 for the three months ended June 30, 2009, compared to $1,308 for the three months ended June 30, 2008 and increased $1,470 to $5,401 for the six months ended June 30, 2009 compared to $3,932. The decrease for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 to 2009 was due to an decrease in working capital and decrease in cash balances.

Interest Expense. Interest expense increased $69,221 to $273,304 for the three months ended June 30, 2009, compared to $204,083 for the three months ended June 30, 2008 and increased $171,565 to $566,336 for the six months ended June 30, 2009 compared to

$394,771 for the six months ended June 30, 2008. The increase for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 to 2009 was due to financing received on September 15, 2008.

Net Income. Net income increased by $4,949,915 to $2,473,733 or $0.55 per common share for the three months ended June 30, 2009 compared to a net loss of $(2,476,182) or $(0.62) per common share for the three months ended June 30, 2008 and increased $9,534,868 to $832,239 or $0.19 per common share for the six months ended June 30, 2009 compared to a net loss of $(8,702,629) or $(2.25) per common share for the six months ended June 30, 2008. The increase in the net income was due primarily to the change in derivative liability associated with accounting for financing received during the third quarter of 2007 and the first quarter of 2008 and the third quarter of 2009.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The process of developing and commercializing the Company’s products requires significant research and development, engineering, testing, marketing and sales efforts, and manufacturing capabilities. These activities, together with the Company’s general and administrative expenses, require significant investments and are expected to continue to result in operating losses for the foreseeable future while the Company continues to introduce its Stinger product line to the marketplace. To date, revenues recognized from its current products have not been sufficient for the Company to achieve or sustain profitability. The Company believes it is unlikely that its existing cash resources will be sufficient to fund its operations for 2009 at its planned levels of research, development and sales and marketing activities. Thus, execution of our current strategies will require us to raise additional capital through debt or equity transactions in order to finance its operations through 2009. The Company is not certain that additional financing will be available to it, or that financing will be available on acceptable terms. If adequate funds are not available, the Company may be required to delay, reduce the scope of or eliminate its research and development programs, reduce its commercialization efforts, or effect changes to its facilities or personnel, and its ability to operate as a going concern may be adversely impacted.

At June 30, 2009, we had working capital of $(833,406), including a cash balance of $33,633. This represents a decrease in working capital of $1,375,311 from working capital of $541,905 at June 30, 2008 and a cash balance of $699,934. This decrease in working capital is principally due to a decrease in cash. Operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and the six months ended June 30, 2008 used cash of $557,275 and $1,709,677, respectively. The decrease in cash flow from operating activities during the three months ended June 30, 2009, as compared to 2008 was primarily due to the decrease in our derivative liability and the stock option expense as computed for the six months ended June 30, 2009.

The long-term continuation of the Company’s business plans is dependent upon generation of sufficient revenues from its products to offset expenses. In the event that the Company does not generate sufficient revenues, it will be required to obtain additional funding through public or private financing, if available, and/or reduce certain discretionary spending. Management believes certain operating costs could be reduced if working capital decreases significantly and additional funding is not available. Failure to generate sufficient revenues, raise additional capital and/or reduce certain discretionary spending could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s current operations and its ability to achieve its intended long-term business objectives.

Critical Accounting Policies

We have identified the following policies as critical to our business operations and the understanding of our results of operations. The preparation of these financial statements require us to make estimates and assumptions that effect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of our financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. There can be no assurance that actual results will not differ from those estimates. The effect of these policies on our business operations is discussed below where such policies affect our reported and expected financial results.

Revenue Recognition. Our revenue recognition policy is significant because our revenue is a key component of our results of operations. We recognize revenue when delivery of the product has occurred or services have been rendered, title has been transferred, the price is fixed and collectability is reasonably assured. Sales of goods are final, with no right of return.

Warranty Costs. We warrant our products against manufacturing defects for a period of one year. As of June 30, 2009, we have had no significant warranty claims on products sold. Once significant sales of our new model stun gun commence, we expect to make an accrual for warranty claims based on our sales.

Intangible Assets. We have substantial intangible assets. Our estimate of the remaining useful life of these assets and the amortization of these assets will affect our gain from operations. Since we do not have a method of quantifying the estimated number of units that may be sold, we have elected to amortize these intangibles over a seven year period beginning in the first quarter of 2005.

Common Stock Issued for Goods and Services. We have issued our common stock for intangible assets and services received or to be received. The values assigned to such stock issuances effects the amount of recorded assets and the amount of recorded expenses. For stock issued before November 12, 2004 (the Company’s common stock began trading on the Pink Sheets on November 12, 2004), we assigned a value of $0.36 to $0.40 per share, which approximates the cash received per share for shares sold on September 24, 2004. For shares issued after November 12, 2004, we assigned the closing value quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board or on the Pink Sheets as the amount of the recorded asset or expenditure. From May 2005 until November 2005, we incurred $145,000 per month of liquidated damages as part of the registration rights agreement from the December 2004 financing.

Purchase Accounting. Our purchase accounting policy is to record any acquisitions in accordance with current accounting pronouncements and allocate the purchase price to the net assets. We evaluate the fair market values of tangible and intangible assets based on current market conditions, and financial and economic factors. Intangible assets are valued using several cash flow projection models and financial models to establish a baseline for their respective valuations. We valued our acquisition of the stun gun technology based on the competitive advantage the technology provides. These competitive advantages are analyzed in relation to the current market and may include valuation techniques, such as the cost to develop the technology, the cost of designing around the claims of an existing patent held by a third party or technology, comparable transactions of like-kind patents or technology, and discounted cash flows of future incremental profits that may be generated. We valued our intangible assets, including our stun gun technology, utilizing the aforementioned techniques. We valued our stun gun technology by comparing current competitor’s revenue and assumed a 10% market penetration of this revenue. We also assumed a factor for the increase in the general use of this stun gun technology, the estimated economic life of this current technology of approximately seven years, and the anticipated profit margins that we believed was achievable. Our policy is to expense in-process research and development costs at acquisition.

Stock Options. We have a stock option plan under which options to purchase shares of our common stock may be granted to employees, consultants and directors at a price no less than the fair market value on the date of grant. Effective January 1, 2006, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (revised 2004), “Share-Based Payment” (SFAS 123(R)) which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all stock-based awards made to employees and directors, including stock option grants, based on estimated fair values. SFAS 123(R) supersedes previous accounting under Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” (APB 25), for periods beginning in fiscal year 2006.

SFAS 123(R) requires companies to estimate the fair value of stock-based awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model. The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as expense over the requisite service periods in our Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company adopted SFAS 123(R) using the modified prospective transition method that requires the application of the accounting standard starting on January 1, 2006, without restatement of prior years. Stock options were granted at an exercise price equal to the Company’s stock price at the date of grant.

Prior to the adoption of SFAS 123(R), the Company accounted for stock-based awards to employees and directors using the intrinsic value method in accordance with APB 25 as allowed under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” (SFAS 123). Under the intrinsic value based method, stock-based compensation expense for employee stock options was recognized in the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements as the difference in the exercise price of the option and the Company’s stock price at the date of grant.

Embedded Derivatives. Certain features of the convertible notes payable were accounted for as embedded derivatives and were valued on the transaction date using the Black-Scholes pricing model. At the end of each quarterly reporting date, the value of the derivatives are evaluated and adjusted to current fair value. At June 30, 2009, the Company’s derivative valuation liability totaled $4,560,000.

Limited Trading Market. On February 22, 2006, our common stock began trading on the OTC Bulletin Board. An investment in a security quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board is speculative and involves a high degree of risk. Many OTC Bulletin Board securities are relatively illiquid, or “thinly traded,” which tends to increase price volatility. Illiquid securities are often difficult for investors to buy or sell without dramatically affecting the quoted price. In some cases, the liquidation of a position in a OTC Bulletin Board security may not be possible within a reasonable period of time. Reliable information regarding issuers of OTC Bulletin Board securities, their prospects, or the risks associated with the business of any particular issuer or an investment in the issuer’s securities may not be

available. As a result, it may be difficult to properly value an investment in a OTC Bulletin Board security. Prior to February 23, 2006, our stock has been quoted on the Pink Sheets which presented similar risks related to the liquidity of the market for our shares.

ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

Our exposure to market risk is currently confined to our cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash. We currently do not hedge interest rate exposure. We have not used derivative financial instruments for speculation or trading purposes. Because of the short-term maturities of our cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities, we do not believe that an increase in market rates would have any significant impact on the realized value of our investments, but may increase the interest expense associated with any future debt.

Our most liquid assets are cash and cash equivalents. Because of their liquidity, these assets are not directly affected by inflation. We also believe that we have intangible assets in the value of our intellectual property. In accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles, we have not capitalized the value of this intellectual property on our balance sheet. Due to the nature of this intellectual property, we believe that these intangible assets are not affected by inflation. Because we intend to retain and continue to use our equipment, furniture and fixtures and leasehold improvements, we believe that the incremental inflation related to replacement costs of such items will not materially affect our operations. However, the rate of inflation affects our expenses, such as those for employee compensation and contract services, which could increase our level of expenses and the rate at which we use our resources.

ITEM 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of June 30, 2009. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed in this report on Form 10-Q has been appropriately recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, to allow timely decisions regarding disclosures. Based on that evaluation, our principal executive and principal financial officers have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective at the reasonable assurance level.

Changes in Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting

Our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officer, has evaluated any changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the period covered by this report and have concluded that there was no change that occurred during the period covered by this report that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. Legal Proceedings

On August 4, 2008, John Ward filed an eight-count complaint against Dennis Kaufman, Frances J. Reimer, the Company, John Doe 1 and John Doe 2 based, essentially, on a loan agreement entered into in 1992, whereby Mr. Ward loaned $30,000 to Stun Tech, Inc. Mr. Ward seeks payment of a promissory note which was the security for the loan, from all the defendants, and punitive damages against Dennis Kaufman and Frances Reimer. The Company is a defendant to the breach of contract, unjust enrichment and constructive trust counts of the complaint. Mr. Ward alleges liability against the Company based on a successor liability theory, claiming that the Company is the successor entity of Electronic Defense Technology LLC and, ultimately, of Stun Tech, Inc., the obligor of the promissory note. Mr. Ward alleges damages in the amount of $232,630 from the Company, comprising the principal of the note and interest from 1992. On September 18, 2008, the Company filed its answer and affirmative defenses. Discovery is on-going. The deposition of the Company’s corporate representative was held on April 23, 2009, after which, the Companyfiled for summary judgment based on its affirmative defenses. This case is set for trial for September 16, 2009.

On January 9, 2007, Taser International, Inc. filed a complaint against Stinger Systems, Inc. that alleges patent infringement, false advertising, and patent false marking in its case, Taser International, Inc. v. Stinger Systems, Inc., in United States District Court for the District of Arizona, Case CV-07-0042-PHX-DGC. Discovery in this case is closed. Expert depositions are completed. The Court’s full Rule 16 Scheduling Order dated May 2, 2007 is available on line at PACER, the official web site of the U.S. Courts. All dates are subject to modification. The case is also seeking an unspecified amount of punitive damages. Absent modification or other unexpected event, the Company will incur no legal fees for its defense in this case as the Company’s attorney has agreed upon entry of appearance to act as its attorney in the case without fee. However, out of state attorney’s fees will occur for representing in the state of Arizona where the case was filed. An adverse outcome in this action may have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations. The company has filed for summary judgment.

The Company has been responding to an investigation by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), which commenced in December 2004. In connection with the investigation, the Company received a “Wells Notice” from the SEC indicating that the staff intends to recommend that the SEC institute an action against the Company, alleging that the Company violated Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 10b-5 thereunder and Sections 5(a), 5(c), and 17(a) of the securities Act of 1933. The proposed allegations relate to purported representations that the Company made about one of the Company’s products regarding when the Company would be shipping the product, the product’s status with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms, the performance of the product, and where the Company’s stock was trading. The allegations further related to the lack of registration for sales of stock in late 2004, made by three individuals who were not officers, directors, or employees of the Company. Under the Wells process established by the SEC, the Company has been provided an opportunity to respond in writing before the staff makes a formal recommendation to the SEC regarding any action. On May 1, 2008, the SEC announced that the Honorable Willis B. Hunt, United States District Judge for the Northern District of Georgia, entered a Final Judgment as to Defendant Stinger Systems, Inc. The Company was enjoined from future violations of Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 10b-5 thereunder. The Company consented to the entry of the final judgment without admitting or denying any of the allegations of the Commission’s Complaint. The Complaint, filed on January 28, 2008, alleged that from October 2004 through March 2005, the Company and its president, Robert F. Gruder, made a series of fraudulent material misrepresentations and omissions regarding the Company’s “flagship” stun gun product. According to the Complaint, the misrepresentations consisted of press releases and direct mailings to thousands of law enforcement officers and agencies, suggesting that Stinger was manufacturing, selling and shipping its stun gun. In fact, the product was still in the development phase. The Complaint further alleged that the misrepresentations consisted of statements on the Company’s website and/or in industry publications that indicated the Company’s stock was trading on NASDAQ, when in fact it was not. The Complaint also alleged that the Company and Mr. Gruder misrepresented that the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms (“ATF”) certified the Company’s stun gun, even though the ATF offered no such certification. According to the Complaint, these misrepresentations caused a spike in the trading volume and price for the Company’s shares once it began publicly trading in November 2004. The charges in the Complaint against Mr. Gruder have not been settled and a judgment adverse to Mr. Gruder could jeopardize our business operations and exhaust the Company’s cash reserve, which may result in investors losing their entire investment.

ITEM 1.A. RISK FACTORS

Investing in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described below in addition to the other information contained in this annual report. If any of the following risks actually occur, our business, financial condition or operating results could be harmed. In that case, the trading price of our common stock could decline and investors may lose part or all of your investment. In the opinion of management, the risks discussed below represent the material risks known to the company. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also impair our business operations and adversely affect the market price of our common stock.

We have a history of operating losses and anticipate future operating losses until such time as we can generate additional sales.

Since beginning operations in September 2004, we have sustained substantial operating losses. At the present time, we do not generate sufficient revenues to support our operating expenses. We expect to have ongoing costs associated with the process of developing and commercializing the Company’s products, including significant research and development, engineering, testing, marketing and sales efforts, and manufacturing capabilities. These activities, together with the Company’s general and administrative expenses, require significant investments and are expected to continue to result in operating losses for the foreseeable future while the Company introduces its Stinger product line to the marketplace. If adequate funds are not available to fund these activities, the Company may be required to delay, reduce the scope of or eliminate its research and development programs, reduce its commercialization efforts, or effect changes to its facilities or personnel, and its ability to operate as a going concern may be adversely impacted.

If we do not obtain additional funding as needed, we may be unable to fund our engineering, marketing and production activities and to adequately pursue our business plan.

Our business plan requires significant ongoing expenditures for product engineering, testing and marketing of our products. It is likely that we will need additional outside funding sources in the future to continue the production and the promotion of our products. If we are not successful in obtaining additional funding for operations, if and when needed, we may have to discontinue some or all of our business activities and our stockholders might lose all of their investment.

Our failure to properly design the Stinger projectile stun gun would have a material adverse effect on our operations.

We will be devoting our capital and management efforts to the design, production and marketing of the Stinger S-200 EID. There is no assurance that our current design will meet our targeted specifications and tolerances, or that we will be able to manufacture the Stinger EID on a timely basis at a competitive price. Additionally, both the original mold for the Stinger stun gun and the mold for the ammunition needed to be redesigned to provide better fit and allow for mass production on an economical basis. Any failure to timely resolve these issues will delay the production of the Stinger EID. Failure to introduce the Stinger EID on a timely basis would have a material adverse effect on us and investors could lose their entire investment.

If we fail to convince the market place that we have competitive products, we will not be commercially successful.

Even if we are successful in designing products competitive to those of our competitors, it will be necessary for us to educate and convince the market place of that competitiveness. If we are unable to do so, we will not be able to achieve the market penetration necessary to become commercially successful and our investors may lose their investments.

If third party manufacturers do not perform in a commercially reasonable manner, we may not be successful.

We rely primarily on third parties to manufacture our products. We do not have long-term supply contracts with these third party manufacturers and instead work on an order-by-order basis. By not having long-term supply contracts, we run the risk that our current suppliers will opt to discontinue their relationship with us thereby interrupting the flow of products and significantly limiting our ability to operate our business. If alternative third party manufacturers could not be located in a timely manner, we would go out of business and investors would lose their entire investment. We own all of the rights, drawings, and intellectual property regarding schematics of the electronics of our products. Circuit board manufacturing and transformer winding companies are a common business throughout the world. We continually are examining alternative sourcing and may have multiple suppliers providing transformers and circuit boards when economies of scale merit such sourcing. We do not anticipate any business interruption if any of our suppliers could no longer supply or work with us on our terms.

Our primary competitor, Taser International Inc., has an established name in the marketplace with both distributors and the end-users of stun products.

Taser International, Inc. is the dominant player in our industry. Taser has been able to successfully launch its products, and penetrate the marketplace. While we hope to design a product that is competitive with those offered by Taser, there is no assurance that we will be able to do so or that we will be able to successfully market such products if we are successful in designing them. Unless we are able to persuade distributors or manufacturer’s representatives and end-users of the competitiveness of our products, we will be unable to generate sufficient sales of our products to become viable. Further, Taser already has contracts with a number of distributors and end-users, who may be unwilling or unable to distribute or purchase our products, respectively.

Negative publicity about less-than-lethal stun weapons may negatively impact sales of our products.

There have been a number of negative articles about the use and abuse of less-than-lethal weapons by law enforcement and correctional officers. There have also been accusations that stun guns have caused the deaths of subjects who have been stunned. The safety of such less-than-lethal weapons has become a matter of some controversy and continued negative publicity about the use of less-than-lethal stun devices may negatively impact the sale of our products.

The sale and use of our products may result in claims against us.

As noted above, the use of stun weapons has been associated with injuries, some serious and permanent, including death. While we are attempting to design the Stinger projectile stun gun to diminish the risk of injury, there can be no assurance that injuries will not occur from the use of the product. Such injuries could result in claims against us. Although we intend to maintain liability insurance for our products, there can be no assurance that the coverage limits of our insurance policies will be adequate. Claims brought against us, whether fully covered by insurance or not, will likely have a material adverse effect upon us.

We have been sued by Taser International, Inc. which could result in a judgment against us that could negatively impact our operations.

We have been the subject of SEC Enforcement action

On May 1, 2008, the SEC announced that the Honorable Willis B. Hunt, United States District Judge for the Northern District of Georgia, entered a Final Judgment as to Defendant Stinger Systems, Inc. The Company was enjoined from future violations of Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 10b-5 thereunder. The Company consented to the entry of the final judgment without admitting or denying any of the allegations of the Commission’s Complaint.

The Complaint, filed on January 28, 2008, alleged that from October 2004 through March 2005, the Company and its president, Robert F. Gruder, made a series of fraudulent material misrepresentations and omissions regarding the Company’s “flagship” stun gun product. According to the Complaint, the misrepresentations consisted of press releases and direct mailings to thousands of law enforcement officers and agencies, suggesting that Stinger was manufacturing, selling and shipping its stun gun. In fact, the product was still in the development phase. The Complaint further alleged that the misrepresentations consisted of statements on the Company’s website and/or in industry publications that indicated the Company’s stock was trading on NASDAQ, when in fact it was not. The Complaint also alleged that the Company and Mr. Gruder misrepresented that the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms (“ATF”) certified the Company’s stun gun, even though the ATF offered no such certification. According to the Complaint, these misrepresentations caused a spike in the trading volume and price for the Company’s shares once it began publicly trading in November 2004.

The charges in the Complaint against Mr. Gruder have not been settled and a judgment adverse to Mr. Gruder could jeopardize our business operations and exhaust the Company’s cash reserve, which may result in investors losing their entire investment.

Claims by others that our products infringed their patents or other intellectual property rights could adversely affect our financial condition.

Any claim of patent or other proprietary right infringement brought against us would be time consuming to defend and would likely result in costly litigation, diverting the time and attention of our management. Moreover, an adverse determination in a judicial or administrative proceeding could prevent us from developing, manufacturing and/or selling some of our products, which could harm our business, financial condition and operating results. Claims against our patents may cost us significant expenses to defend and if our patents are not upheld, we may not be able to continue operations and investors may lose their entire investment.

We may not be able to protect our patent rights, trademarks, and other proprietary rights.

We believe that our patent rights, trademarks, and other proprietary rights are important to our success and our competitive position. While we have patents and licenses with respect to certain of our products, there is no assurance that they are adequate to protect our proprietary rights. Accordingly, we plan to devote substantial resources to the establishment and maintenance of these rights. However, the actions taken by us may be inadequate to prevent others from infringing upon our rights which could compromise any competitive position we may develop in the marketplace.

Law enforcement, correction and military operations are government agencies which are subject to budgetary constraints, which may inhibit sales.

Government agencies are generally subject to budgets which limit the amount of money that they can spend on weapons procurement. It may be that although a government agency is interested in acquiring our products, it will be unable to purchase our products because of budgetary constraints. Further, the lead time for an agency acquiring new weapons and receiving approval to acquire them may delay sales to such agencies. Any such delay will have an adverse effect upon our revenues.

There exist some state, local and international regulations and/or prohibitions on less-than-lethal weapon systems which will make it more difficult or impossible to market our products in those jurisdictions thereby limiting potential revenues.

Some states prohibit the sale of less-than-lethal weapon systems. Additional negative publicity with respect to less-than-lethal weapon systems may cause other jurisdictions to ban or restrict the sale of our products. Internationally, there are some countries which restrict and/or prohibit the sale of less-than-lethal weapon systems. Further, the export of our less-than-lethal weapon systems is regulated. Export licenses must be obtained from the Department of Commerce for all shipments to foreign countries. To the extent that states, local governments or other countries impose restrictions or prohibitions on the sale and use of our products or to the extent we are unable to obtain export licenses for the sales of our weapons to international customers, our sales could be materially adversely impacted.

If we cannot retain or hire qualified personnel, our programs could be delayed.

Our business is a technical and highly specialized area of the firearms industry. We are dependent on the principal members of the management and technical staff. The loss of key employees could disrupt our research and development and product promotion activities. We believe that our future success will depend in large part upon our ability to attract and retain highly skilled, scientific and managerial personnel. We face intense competition for these kinds of personnel from other companies and organizations. We might not be successful in hiring or retaining the personnel needed for our company to be successful.

Because our common stock is quoted only on the OTC Bulletin Board and the Pink Sheets, your ability to sell your shares in the secondary trading market may be limited.

Our common stock is traded only on the OTC Bulletin Board and the Pink Sheets. Consequently, the liquidity of our common stock is impaired, not only in the number of shares that are bought and sold, but also through delays in the timing of transactions, and coverage by security analysts and the news media, if any, of our company. As a result, prices for shares of our common stock may be different than might otherwise prevail if our common stock was quoted or traded on a national securities exchange such as the New York Stock Exchange, NASDAQ or the NYSE Amex Equities.

Our stock price has been volatile and your investment in our common stock could suffer a decline in value.

Our common stock is quoted for trading only on the OTC Bulletin Board and the Pink Sheets. The market price of our common stock may fluctuate significantly in response to a number of factors, some of which are beyond our control. These factors include:

	•		sales of the Stinger projectile stun gun;

	•		announcements of technological innovations or new products by us or our competitors;

	•		government regulatory action affecting our products or our competitors’ products;

	•		developments or disputes concerning patent or proprietary rights;

	•		actual or anticipated fluctuations in our operating results;

	•		changes in our financial estimates by securities analysts;

	•		broad market fluctuations; and

	•		economic conditions in the United States.

During 2008, the split-adjusted closing sales price of our stock ranged from $0.55 to $7.60. Our stock closed on June 30, 2009 at $0.60 per share. All amounts set forth in this Form 10-Q have been adjusted to reflect a 1-for 5 reverse stock split affected on January 17, 2009.

Trading of our stock may be restricted by the SEC’s penny stock regulations, which may limit a stockholder’s ability to buy and sell our stock.

The SEC has adopted regulations which generally define “penny stock” to be any equity security that has a market price (as defined) less than $5.00 per share or an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. Our securities are covered by the penny stock rules, which impose additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell to persons other than established customers and “accredited investors”. The term “accredited investor” refers generally to institutions with assets in excess of $5,000,000 or individuals with a net worth in excess of $1,000,000 or annual income exceeding $200,000 or $300,000 jointly with their spouse. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document in a form prepared by the SEC which provides information about penny stocks and the nature and level of risks in the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction and

monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer’s account. The bid and offer quotations, and the broker-dealer and salesperson compensation information, must be given to the customer orally or in writing prior to effecting the transaction and must be given to the customer in writing before or with the customer’s confirmation. In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from these rules, the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written agreement to the transaction. These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in the secondary market for the stock that is subject to these penny stock rules. Consequently, these penny stock rules may affect the ability of broker-dealers to trade our securities. We believe that the penny stock rules discourage investor interest in and limit the marketability of our common stock.

FINRA sales practice requirements may also limit a stockholder’s ability to buy and sell our stock.

In addition to the penny stock rules described above, FINRA (Financial Industry Regulatory Authority) has adopted rules that require that in recommending an investment to a customer, a broker-dealer must have reasonable grounds for believing that the investment is suitable for that customer. Prior to recommending speculative, low priced securities to their non-institutional customers, broker-dealers must make reasonable efforts to obtain information about the customer’s financial status, tax status, investment objectives and other information. Under interpretations of these rules, FINRA believes that there is a high probability that speculative, low priced securities will not be suitable for at least some customers. FINRA requirements make it more difficult for broker-dealers to recommend that their customers buy our common stock, which may limit your ability to buy and sell our stock and have an adverse effect on the market for its shares.

Sales of a substantial number of shares of our common stock in the public market could lower our stock price and impair our ability to raise funds in stock offerings and impair the ability of stockholders to receive a return on their investment in Stinger Systems.

Future sales of a substantial number of shares of our common stock in the public market, or the perception that such sales could occur, could adversely affect the prevailing market price of our common stock and could make it more difficult for us to raise additional capital through the sale of equity securities and reduce the chances of persons who have invested in us of receiving a return on their investment. In addition, substantially all of the outstanding shares of our common stock are freely tradable or eligible for sale under Rule 144, subject to certain conditions of that rule.

Exercise of outstanding options, warrants and convertible securities will dilute existing shareholders and could decrease the market price of our common stock.

All amounts set forth in this Quarterly Report Form 10-Q have been adjusted to reflect a 1-for 5 reverse stock split affected on January 17, 2009. As of June 30, 2009, we had 4,697,945 shares issued and outstanding, 27,135,427 shares of common stock that could be issued upon the exercise of options, warrants, grants and convertible securities, of which 1,244,900 shares could be issued pursuant to the exercise of options outstanding under the Stinger Systems, Inc. Employee Stock Option & Stock Bonus Plan. There can be no guarantee that any or all of the warrants, grants, options or convertible securities will be exercised or converted. To the extent these underlying shares are ultimately issued, there will be further dilution to investors. The existence or exercise of the outstanding options, grants, warrants or convertible notes may adversely affect the market price of our common stock and the terms under which we could obtain additional equity capital.

We likely will issue additional equity securities which will dilute your share ownership.

We likely will issue additional equity securities through the exercise of options, grants, convertible notes, or warrants that are outstanding or may be outstanding, and possibly to raise capital. These additional issuances will dilute your share ownership.

Any short selling of our stock could depress the stock’s price and have a negative impact on the investments in us by our stockholders.

Downward pressure on our stock price could result from the occurrence of any of the risk factors set forth herein as well as from other factors that relate generally to stocks that trade in the securities markets. Downward pressure on our stock could result in short sales of stock that could further depress the price. The further depression of the stock price could then encourage additional short selling with the end result being a downward spiral of our stock price. If short selling of our stock should commence in the market, the net effect could be an overall drop in share price thereby having a negative effect on any person owning shares of our stock.

We do not intend to pay any cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future and, therefore, any return on your investment in our common stock must come from increases in the fair market value and trading price of our common stock.

We have never paid a cash dividend on our common stock. We do not intend to pay cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future and, therefore, any return on your investment in our common stock must come from increases in the fair market value and trading price of our common stock.
