ITEM 1.                      DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
 
(a)           Business Development
 
General
 
Our continuing operations consist of franchising, ownership and operation of storefront insurance agencies under the DCAP, Barry Scott, Atlantic Insurance and Accurate Agency brand names.
 
Our discontinued operations consist of premium financing of insurance policies for our DCAP, Barry Scott, Atlantic Insurance and Accurate Agency clients as well as clients of non-affiliated entities. On February 1, 2008, we sold our outstanding premium finance loan portfolio. As a result of the sale, our business of internally financing insurance contracts has been reclassified as discontinued operations and prior periods have been restated.
 
Recent Developments
 
The following developments have occurred since January 1, 2008:
 
·  
On February 1, 2008, our wholly-owned subsidiary, Payments Inc., sold its outstanding premium finance loan portfolio. The purchase price for the net loan portfolio was approximately $11,845,000, of which approximately $268,000 was paid to Payments.  The remainder of the purchase price was satisfied by the assumption of liabilities, including the satisfaction of Payments’ premium finance revolving credit line obligation to Manufacturers and Traders Trust Company (“M&T”). As additional consideration, Payments will be entitled to receive an amount based upon the net earnings generated by the loan portfolio as it is collected. The purchaser of the portfolio also agreed that, during the five year period ending January 31, 2013 (subject to automatic renewal for successive two year terms under certain circumstances), it will purchase, assume and service all eligible premium finance contracts originated by Payments in the states of New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania.  In connection with such purchases, Payments will be entitled to receive a fee generally equal to a percentage of the amount financed.
 
Developments During 2007
 
·  
On February 2, 2007, Robert Wallach resigned as a director.
 
·  
During 2007, the holders of $1,500,000 of the outstanding principal amount of our subordinated debt agreed to extend the maturity date of the debt from September 30, 2007 to September 30, 2008. In consideration for the extension of the due date of the subordinated debt, we extended the expiration date of warrants held by the debtholders for the purchase of 97,500 of our common shares from September 30, 2007 to September 30, 2008.  See Item 12 of this Annual Report.
 
2
 
·  
Effective March 23, 2007, the holder of our Series A preferred shares exchanged such shares for an equal number of Series B preferred shares. The terms of the Series B preferred shares are identical to those of the Series A preferred shares, except that they are mandatorily redeemable on April 30, 2008 (as opposed to April 30, 2007 for the Series A preferred shares).  See Item 12 of this Annual Report.
 
·  
In March 2007, Commercial Mutual Insurance Company’s Board of Directors adopted a resolution to convert Commercial Mutual from an advance premium insurance company to a stock property and casualty insurance company.  We hold surplus notes of Commercial Mutual in the aggregate principal amount of $3,750,000.  In the event the conversion occurs, we may be able to convert such notes into a controlling equity interest in Commercial Mutual.  See Items 1(b), 6 and 12 of this Annual Report.
 
Developments During 2006
 
The following material events occurred during 2006:
 
·  
On January 31, 2006, we purchased from Eagle Insurance Company two surplus notes issued by Commercial Mutual Insurance Company in the aggregate principal amount of $3,750,000 plus accrued interest of $1,794,688. Commercial Mutual is a New York property and casualty insurer. Eagle is a New Jersey property and casualty insurer that is subject to an Order of Liquidation issued by the New Jersey Department of Banking and Insurance (which order has been stayed pending appeal). Eagle owns approximately 10% of our outstanding common shares.  See Items 1(b), 6 and 11 of this Annual Report.
 
·  
On July 28, 2006, we and our premium finance subsidiary, Payments Inc., entered into a new revolving line of credit with M&T which provided for a decrease in the credit line to $20,000,000.  The new revolver bore interest, at our option, at either M&T’s prime lending rate (8.25% at December 31, 2006) or LIBOR (5.35% at December 31, 2006) plus 2.25%, and was scheduled to mature on June 30, 2008.  The line of credit also allowed for a $2,500,000 term loan (of the $20,000,000 credit line availability) to be used to provide liquidity for ongoing working capital purposes.  Any draws against the term line bore interest at LIBOR plus 2.75%.  Concurrently with the obtaining of the new credit line, we borrowed $1,300,000 as a draw against the term line.  See Items 6 and 7 of this Annual Report.
 
Developments During 2005
 
The following material events occurred during 2005:
 
·  
During 2005, we utilized our line of credit with M&T to repay an aggregate of $2,000,000 of our $3,500,000 subordinated debt.
 
3
 
·  
Effective May 25, 2005, the holders of the remaining $1,500,000 outstanding principal amount of our subordinated debt agreed to extend the maturity date of the debt from January 10, 2006 to September 30, 2007.  This extension was given to satisfy a requirement of M&T that arose in connection with the increase in our revolving line of credit to $25,000,000 and the extension of the line to June 30, 2007. In consideration for the extension of the due date of the subordinated debt, we extended the expiration date of warrants held by the debtholders for the purchase of 97,500 of our common shares from January 10, 2006 to September 30, 2007.
 
·  
On November 15, 2005, we entered into an agreement for the acquisition of substantially all of the assets of Accurate Agency, Inc., Louisons Associates Limited and Accurate Agency of Western New York, Inc., insurance brokerage firms with a total of four offices located in and around Rochester, New York that operate under the Accurate Agency brand. The transaction was consummated effective as of January 1, 2006.
 
(b)
Business of Issuer
 
General
 
Our storefront locations serve as insurance agents or brokers and place various types of insurance on behalf of customers.  We focus on automobile, motorcycle and homeowners insurance and our customer base is primarily individuals rather than businesses.
 
Currently there are 69 store locations owned or franchised by us of which 64 are located in New York State.  In the New York metropolitan area, there are 42 DCAP franchises.  There are also 17 Barry Scott locations and five Accurate Agency locations outside the New York metropolitan area (all located in central and western New York State). There are five Atlantic Insurance locations in eastern Pennsylvania.  All of the Barry Scott, Atlantic Insurance and Accurate Agency locations are wholly-owned by us.
 
The stores receive commissions from insurance companies for their services.  We receive fees from the franchised locations in connection with their use of the DCAP name.  Neither we nor the stores currently serve as an insurance company and therefore do not assume underwriting risks; however, as discussed below under “Commercial Mutual Insurance Company”, Commercial Mutual is seeking to convert from an advance premium insurance company to a stock property and casualty insurance company.  In the event of such conversion, the surplus notes issued by Commercial Mutual and held by us may be converted into a controlling equity interest in Commercial Mutual.
 
Through our wholly-owned subsidiary, Payments Inc., until February 1, 2008, we provided insurance premium financing services to our DCAP, Barry Scott, Atlantic Insurance and Accurate Agency locations as well as non-affiliated insurance agencies.  Payments Inc. is licensed as an insurance premium finance agency in the states of New York, Pennsylvania and New Jersey. Effective February 1, 2008, Payments Inc. sold its outstanding finance contracts.  Payments Inc. now receives revenues through placement fees rather than through the internally financing of contracts.
 
4
 
 We also offer automobile club services for roadside emergencies.  Income tax preparation services are also offered in connection with the franchise operation of the DCAP stores.
 
We were incorporated in 1961 and assumed our current name in 1999.
 
Our executive offices are located at 1158 Broadway, Hewlett, New York 11557; our telephone number is (516) 374-7600 and our fax number is (516) 295-7216.
 
Insurance Agencies
 
Insurance Brokerage
 
Our storefront agencies deal primarily with the insurance needs of individuals.  In the states in which we operate, all automobile owners must secure liability insurance coverage.  We provide various choices to the insured depending on market conditions.
 
Our agencies currently operate under the DCAP, Barry Scott, Atlantic Insurance and Accurate Agency brand names.  During 2006, we began the transition, planned to take two to three years, to change all store names to DCAP.
 
During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007, approximately 89% of our revenues were derived from commissions and other fees received in connection with the selling of automobile and other property and casualty insurance policies.
 
In addition to automobile insurance, we offer:
 
·  
property and casualty insurance for motorcycles, boats and livery/taxis
·  
life insurance
·  
business insurance
·  
homeowner’s insurance
·  
excess coverage
 
We have obtained the right to receive calls placed to “1-888-411-DCAP” and “1-800-LOWEST-1” on a nationwide basis as a way to increase our insurance brokerage business.
 
Franchises
 
An important part of our strategy has been to increase our name recognition.  We decided that granting others DCAP franchises is an important step in achieving this goal.
 
Franchisees currently pay us an initial franchise fee of $25,000 to offer insurance products under the DCAP name.  Franchisees are obligated to also pay us monthly fees during the term of the franchise agreement, generally commencing after a six to twelve month period from the date on which the storefront opens for business.  Initial franchise fees and monthly fees payable by franchisees constituted approximately 2% and 8%, respectively, of our revenues during the year ended December 31, 2007.
 
5
 
Automobile Club
 
As a complement to our automobile insurance operations, we offer automobile club services for roadside emergencies.  We offer memberships for such services, and we make arrangements with towing dispatch companies to fulfill service call requirements.
 
During fiscal 2007, fees received in connection with automobile club services constituted approximately 1% of our revenues.
 
Internet
 
During fiscal 2006, we developed a website (www.dcapagents.com), a secure site for use by personnel of our company-owned stores as well as our franchises.  Incorporated within the website are tools for managing the location’s business, including comparative quoting, lead generation and tracking. 
 
Policy placement generates commission revenue.  Since policy sales can be measured as they relate to the number of inquiries or leads, increased marketing  will result in more leads.  During fiscal 2006, we developed a plan to generate more leads by increasing our presence on the Internet through Search Engine Optimization, or SEO, and lead procurement through contracting with third party lead aggregators.  Our websites, including www.dcapinsurance.com, now offer the prospective insured the opportunity to provide us the needed information in the very same manner as provided face to face or over the telephone.  With the information provided, we can give multiple quotes to the prospect as well as track the status of the lead from the moment it is received.   
 
Income Tax Return Preparation
 
A number of our franchise locations provide income tax return preparation services.  The tax return preparation service allows them to offer an additional service to the walk-in customers who comprise the bulk of their customer base, as well as to existing customers.
 
Structure and Operations
 
As stated above, we currently have 69 offices, of which 42 are franchises, and 27 are wholly-owned.  Our franchises consist of both “conversion” and “startup” operations.  In a conversion operation, an existing insurance brokerage with an established business becomes a DCAP office.  In a startup operation, an entrepreneur begins operations as a DCAP office.  Our wholly-owned offices are managed by our employees; each franchise is managed by or under the supervision of the franchisee.
 
In order to promote consistency and efficiency, and as a service to our franchises, we offer training to office managers.  Our training program covers:
 
6

·  
marketing, sales and underwriting
·  
office and logistics
·  
computer information
 
We provide the administrative services and functions of a “central office” to our wholly-owned offices.  The services provided to these storefront offices are:
 
·  
sales training
·  
bookkeeping and accounting
·  
processing services
 
Franchises operate without the assistance of our “central office” services.
 
We also provide support services to stores such as:
 
·  
assistance with regard to the hiring of employees
·  
assistance with regard to the writing of local advertising
·  
advice regarding potential carriers for certain customers
 
We also manage the cooperative advertising program in which all of our offices participate.
 
In addition to the above services, we provide to all of our offices a direct business relationship with nationally-known and local insurance carriers that may otherwise be beyond the reach of small, privately-owned retail insurance operations.
 
In 2007, we obtained and began to utilize a new agency software system, AMS 360, that is used in connection with the management and operations of our stores.  We also intend to offer the new system to our franchisees.
 
Premium Financing
 
Customers who purchase insurance policies are often unable to pay the premium in a lump sum and, therefore, require extended payment terms.  Premium finance involves making a loan to the customer that is secured by the unearned portion of the insurance premiums being financed and held by the insurance carrier.  Our wholly-owned subsidiary, Payments Inc., is licensed as a premium finance agency in the states of New York, Pennsylvania and New Jersey.
 
Prior to February 1, 2008, Payments Inc. provided premium financing in connection with the obtaining of insurance policies.  Effective February 1, 2008, Payments Inc. sold its outstanding premium finance loan portfolio.  The purchaser of the portfolio has agreed that, during the five year period following the closing (subject to automatic renewal for successive two year terms under certain circumstances), it will purchase, assume and service all eligible premium finance contracts originated by Payments in the states of New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania.  In connection with such purchases, Payments will be entitled to receive a fee generally equal to a percentage of the amount financed. Our premium financing business currently consists of the placement fees that Payments will earn from placing contracts.
 
7
 
The regulatory framework under which our premium finance procedures are established is generally set forth in the premium finance statutes of the states in which we operate. Among other restrictions, the interest rate that may be charged the insureds for financing their premiums is limited by these state statutes.  See “Government Regulation.”
 
Commercial Mutual Insurance Company
 
In March 2007, Commercial Mutual Insurance Company’s Board of Directors approved a resolution to convert Commercial Mutual from an advance premium insurance company to a stock property and casualty insurance company pursuant to Section 7307 of the New York Insurance Law. Commercial Mutual has advised us that it has obtained permission from the Superintendent of Insurance of the State of New York to proceed with the conversion process (subject to certain conditions as discussed below).
 
As discussed in Item 1(a) hereof, we hold two surplus notes issued by Commercial Mutual in the aggregate principal amount of $3,750,000.  Previously earned but unpaid interest on the notes as of December 31, 2007 was approximately $2,984,000.  The surplus notes are past due and provide for interest at the prime rate or 8.5% per annum, whichever is less.  Payments of principal and interest on the surplus notes may only be made out of the surplus of Commercial Mutual and require the approval of the Insurance  Department of the State of New York.  As of December 31, 2007, the statutory surplus of Commercial Mutual, as reported to the Insurance Department, was approximately $6,057,000.
 
The conversion by Commercial Mutual to a stock property and casualty insurance company is subject to a number of conditions, including the approval of the plan of conversion by the Superintendent of Insurance and Commercial Mutual’s policyholders.   As part of the approval process, the Superintendent of Insurance has conducted a five year examination of Commercial Mutual as of December 31, 2006 and had an appraisal performed with respect to the fair market value of Commercial Mutual as of such date.  We, as a holder of the Commercial Mutual surplus notes, at our option, would be able to exchange the surplus notes for an equitable share of the securities or other consideration, or both, of the corporation into which Commercial Mutual would be converted.  Based upon the amount payable on the surplus notes and the statutory surplus of Commercial Mutual, we believe that, following any conversion by Commercial Mutual into a stock corporation, we could hold a controlling equity interest in Commercial Mutual.  It is anticipated that the conversion will occur during 2008. No assurances can be given that the conversion will occur.
 
Competition
 
We compete with numerous insurance agents and brokers in our market.  The amount of capital required to commence operations is generally small and the only material barrier to entry is the ability to obtain the required licenses and appointments as a broker or agent for insurance carriers.  There is no price competition between us and other agents and brokers.  All must sell a particular carrier’s policies at exactly the same price.  Because we may be able to offer a different payment plan through the placement of premium financing, we are able to differentiate ourselves.
 
 
8
 
In recent years, extensive competition has come from direct sales entities, such as Progressive Direct, Esurance and GEICO Insurance, who have concentrated their advertising efforts on television and radio.  In addition, the Internet sales effort of some of our competitors has shown promise.  Further, legislation that allows banks to offer insurance to their customers has taken market share from the storefront insurance operators.
 
Government Regulation
 
Our premium finance subsidiary, Payments Inc., is regulated by governmental agencies in the states in which it conducts business.  The regulations, which generally are designed to protect the interests of policyholders who elect to finance their insurance premiums, vary by jurisdiction, but usually, among other matters, involve:
 
·  
regulating the interest rates, fees and service charges we may charge our customers
 
·  
imposing minimum capital requirements for our premium finance subsidiary or requiring surety bonds in addition to or as an alternative to such capital requirements
 
·  
governing the form and content of our financing agreements
 
·  
prescribing minimum notice and cure periods before we may cancel a customer’s policy for non-payment under the terms of the financing agreement
 
·  
prescribing timing and notice procedures for collecting unearned premium from the insurance company, applying the unearned premium to our customer’s premium finance account, and, if applicable, returning any refund due to our customer
 
·  
requiring our premium finance company to qualify for and obtain a license and to renew the license each year
 
·  
conducting periodic financial and market conduct examinations and investigations of our premium finance company and its operations
 
·  
requiring prior notice to the regulating agency of any change of control of our premium finance company

Dividends
 
Holders of our common shares are entitled to dividends when, as and if declared by our Board of Directors out of funds legally available.  Until March 23, 2007, there were also outstanding 780 Series A preferred shares.  These shares were entitled to cumulative aggregate dividends of $39,000 per annum (5% of their liquidation preference of $780,000).  Effective March 23, 2007, the holder of our Series A preferred shares exchanged such shares for an equal number of Series B preferred shares.  The terms of the Series B preferred shares are identical to those of the Series A preferred shares except that they are mandatorily redeemable on April 30, 2008 (as opposed to April 30, 2007 for the Series A preferred shares).  No dividends may be paid on our common shares unless an equivalent pro rata payment is made to the holders of the Series B preferred shares on the accumulated and unpaid dividends payable to such holders at such time.

We have not declared or paid any dividends in the past to the holders of our common shares and do not currently anticipate declaring or paying any dividends in the foreseeable future.  We intend to retain earnings, if any, to finance the development and expansion of our business.  Future dividend policy will be subject to the discretion of our Board of Directors and will be contingent upon future earnings, if any, our financial condition, capital requirements, general business conditions, and other factors.  Therefore, we can give no assurance that any dividends of any kind will ever be paid to holders of our common shares.

ITEM 6.
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION
 
Overview
 
We operate 27 storefronts, including 17 Barry Scott locations, five Atlantic Insurance locations, and five Accurate Agency locations. We also have 42 franchised DCAP locations.
 
Our insurance storefronts serve as insurance agents or brokers and place various types of insurance on behalf of customers.  We focus on automobile, motorcycle and homeowner’s insurance and our customer base is primarily individuals rather than businesses.
 
The stores receive commissions from insurance companies for their services.  We receive fees from the franchised locations in connection with their use of the DCAP name.  Neither we nor the stores currently serve as an insurance company and therefore do not assume underwriting risks; however, as discussed in Item 1(b) of this Annual Report, in March 2007, Commercial Mutual Insurance Company’s Board of Directors adopted a resolution to convert Commercial Mutual from an advance premium insurance company to a stock property and casualty insurance company.  We hold surplus notes of Commercial Mutual in the aggregate principal amount of $3,750,000.  In the event the conversion occurs, we may be able to convert such notes into a controlling equity interest in Commercial Mutual.
 
The stores also offer automobile club services for roadside assistance and some of our franchise locations offer income tax preparation services.
 
Payments Inc., our wholly-owned subsidiary, is an insurance premium finance agency that is licensed within the states of New York, Pennsylvania and New Jersey. Until February 1, 2008, Payments Inc. offered premium financing to clients of DCAP, Barry Scott, Atlantic Insurance and Accurate Agency offices, as well as non-affiliated insurance agencies.  On February 1, 2008, Payments Inc. sold its outstanding premium finance loan portfolio. As a result of the sale, its business of internally financing insurance contracts has been reclassified as discontinued operations and prior periods have been restated. Effective February 1, 2008, revenues from its premium financing business will consist of placement fees based upon premium finance contracts purchased, assumed and serviced by the purchaser of the loan portfolio.

Critical Accounting Policies
 
Our consolidated financial statements include accounts of DCAP Group, Inc. and all majority-owned and controlled subsidiaries. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires our management to make estimates and assumptions in certain circumstances that affect amounts reported in our consolidated financial statements and related notes. In preparing these financial statements, our management has utilized information available including our past history, industry standards and the current economic environment, among other factors, in forming its estimates and judgments of certain amounts included in the consolidated financial statements, giving due consideration to materiality. It is possible that the ultimate outcome as anticipated by our management in formulating its estimates inherent in these financial statements might not materialize. However, application of the critical accounting policies below involves the exercise of judgment and use of assumptions as to future uncertainties and, as a result, actual results could differ from these estimates. In addition, other companies may utilize different estimates, which may impact comparability of our results of operations to those of companies in similar businesses.
 
Commission and fee income
 
We recognize commission revenue from insurance policies at the beginning of the contract period.  Refunds of commissions on the cancellation of insurance policies are reflected at the time of cancellation.
 
Franchise fee revenue on initial franchisee fees is recognized when substantially all of our contractual requirements under the franchise agreement are completed.  Franchisees also pay a monthly franchise fee plus a monthly advertising fee.  We are obligated to provide marketing and training support to each franchisee.
 
Franchise fee revenue is recognized when substantially all of our contractual requirements under the franchise agreement are completed.
 
Automobile club dues are recognized equally over the contract period.
 
Finance income, fees and receivables (discontinued operations)
 
For our premium finance operations, we used the interest method to recognize interest income over the life of each loan in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (“SFAS”) No. 91, “Accounting for Nonrefundable Fees and Costs Associated with Originating or Acquiring Loans and Initial Direct Costs of Leases.
 
13
 
Upon the establishment of a premium finance contract, we recorded the gross loan payments as a receivable with a corresponding reduction for deferred interest. The deferred interest was amortized to interest income using the interest method over the life of each loan.  The weighted average interest rate charged with respect to financed insurance policies was approximately 26.37% and 26.49% per annum for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively.
 
Upon completion of collection efforts, after cancellation of the underlying insurance policies, any uncollected earned interest or fees were charged off.
 
Allowance for finance receivable losses (discontinued operations)
 
Customers who purchase insurance policies are often unable to pay the premium in a lump sum and, therefore, require extended payment terms.  Premium finance involves making a loan to the customer that is backed by the unearned portion of the insurance premiums being financed.  No credit checks are made prior to the decision to extend credit to a customer.  Losses on finance receivables include an estimate of future credit losses on premium finance accounts. Credit losses on premium finance accounts occur when the unearned premiums received from the insurer upon cancellation of a financed policy are inadequate to pay the balance of the premium finance account. After collection attempts are exhausted, the remaining account balance, including unrealized interest, is written off.  We review historical trends of such losses relative to finance receivable balances to develop estimates of future losses. However, actual write-offs may differ materially from the write-off estimates that we used.  For the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, the provision for finance receivable losses was approximately $472,000 and $650,000, respectively, and actual principal write-offs for such years, net of actual and anticipated recoveries of previous write-offs, were approximately $522,000 and $679,000, respectively. If our provision for finance receivable losses was understated by 10% because our actual write-offs were greater than anticipated, the effect would have been a reduction in our basic earnings per share by approximately $0.01 and $0.01 for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively.
 
Goodwill
 
The carrying value of goodwill was initially reviewed for impairment as of January 1, 2002, and is reviewed annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount might not be recoverable. If the fair value of the operations to which goodwill relates is less than the carrying amount of those operations, including unamortized goodwill, the carrying amount of goodwill is reduced accordingly with a charge to expense. Based on our most recent analysis, we believe that no impairment of goodwill exists at December 31, 2007.
 
Stock-based compensation
 
Effective January 1, 2006, our plans have been accounted for in accordance with the recognition and measurement provisions of SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004), “Share-Based Payment” (“SFAS 123(R)”), which replaced SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” and supersede APB Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” (“APB 25”) and related interpretations. FAS 123(R) requires compensation costs related to share-based payment transactions, including employee stock options, to be recognized in the financial statements. In addition, we adhere to the guidance set forth within Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 107, which provides the Staff's views regarding the interaction between SFAS 123(R) and certain SEC rules and regulations and provides interpretations with respect to the valuation of share-based payments for public companies.
 
14
 
In adopting SFAS 123(R), we applied the modified prospective approach to transition. Under the modified prospective approach, the provisions of SFAS 123(R) are to be applied to new awards and to awards modified, repurchased, or cancelled after the required effective date. Additionally, compensation cost for the portion of awards for which the requisite service has not been rendered that are outstanding as of the required effective date shall be recognized as the requisite service is rendered on or after the required effective date. The compensation cost for that portion of awards shall be based on the grant-date fair value of those awards as calculated for either recognition or pro-forma disclosures under SFAS 123.
 
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
 
In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued FASB Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes - an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (“FIN 48”), which clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in tax positions. FIN 48 requires that we recognize the impact of a tax position in our financial statements if that position is more likely than not to be sustained on audit, based on the technical merits of the position. The provisions of FIN 48 were effective in the first quarter of  2007, with the cumulative effect of the change in accounting principle, if any, recorded as an adjustment to opening retained earnings. The adoption of FIN 48 did not have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations as of December 31, 2007 or for the year then ended.
 
In September 2006, the SEC released Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 108, “Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements When Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements” (“SAB 108”). SAB 108 provides interpretive guidance on the SEC’s views regarding the process of quantifying the materiality of misstatements in the financial statements. SAB 108 was effective for fiscal years ending after November 15, 2006.  The application of SAB 108 did not have a material effect on our financial position or results of operations as of December 31, 2007 or for the year then ended.
 
In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“SFAS 157”). SFAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework and gives guidance regarding the methods used in measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years. We are currently evaluating the impact of adopting SFAS 157 on our consolidated financial statements.
 
In January 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities - Including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115” (“SFAS 159”). SFAS 159 is intended 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. It also establishes presentation and disclosure requirements designed to facilitate comparisons between entities that choose different measurement attributes for similar types of assets and liabilities. The statement does not affect any existing accounting literature that requires certain assets and liabilities to be carried at fair value, and it does not establish requirements for recognizing dividend income, interest income or interest expense. It also does not eliminate disclosure requirements included in other accounting standards. The provisions of SFAS 159 are effective for the fiscal year beginning after November 15, 2007. We are currently evaluating the impact of the provisions of SFAS 159.
 
15
 
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141(R), “Business Combinations.”  Effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, this statement revises and converge internationally the accounting for business combinations.  The adoption of this statement is not expected to have a material impact on our financial statements.
 
In December 2007, the FASB also issued SFAS No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements.” Effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, this statement revises and converges internationally the reporting of noncontrolling interests in consolidated financial statements. The adoption of this statement is not expected to have a material impact on our financial statements.
 
Results of Operations
 
On February 1, 2008, we sold our outstanding premium finance loan portfolio. As a result of the sale, our premium financing operations have been reclassified as discontinued operations and prior periods have been restated. Separate discussions follow for results of continuing operations and discontinued operations.

During the year ended December 31, 2007 (“2007”), revenues from continuing operations were $5,745,000 as compared to $7,122,000 for the year ended December 31, 2006 (“2006”).  The 19% revenue decrease of $1,377,000 was primarily attributable to the sale of fewer insurance policies in 2007 than in 2006.  Such reduction in sales was generally caused by the continued heightened competition from the voluntary insurance market which is offering lower premium rates to our main customer, the non-standard insured.

Our general and administrative expenses for 2007 were $6,754,000, as compared to $7,269,000 for 2006. The 7% decrease of $515,000 was primarily due to a reduction in fixed and variable compensation paid to employees due to a reduction in policies sold at our stores, and our Compensation Committee determining that no bonus is payable to our Chief Executive Officer in 2007 for 2006 (and accordingly no bonus accrual being provided in 2007; in contrast, a bonus for 2005 was provided during 2006).
 
Impairment of intangibles was $95,000 in 2007 compared to $-0- in 2006. The increase in 2007 was due to the cessation of utilization of the vanity telephone number included in intangible assets, compared to no such impairment charge in 2006.
 
Our interest income – notes receivable for 2007 was $1,288,000 as compared to $1,183,000 for 2006. On January 31, 2006, we purchased $3,750,000 of surplus notes of Commercial Mutual Insurance Company at a price of $3,075,000.  The increase of $105,000 in 2007 was due to the recording of 12 months of interest in 2007 as compared 11 months in 2006.
 
During 2007, we recorded a benefit from income taxes of $227,000 compared to a provision for income taxes of $138,000 in 2006. The decrease of $365,000 is due to an $851,000 decrease in income from continuing operations in 2007 as compared to 2006.
 
Our continuing operations generated a net loss before income taxes of $545,000 in 2007 as compared to a net profit before income taxes of $306,000 in 2006.  This decrease of $851,000 was primarily due to a 19% decrease in revenues of $1,377,000, offset by a reduction in both employee head count and variable compensation paid on commissions generated.

Our premium finance revenues decreased $793,000 in 2007 as compared 2006.  The 20% decrease is a direct result of a general decline in the number of policies available to finance. Such reduction in policies sold was generally caused by the continued heightened competition from the voluntary insurance market which is offering lower premium rates to the non-standard insured.
 
Our general and administrative expenses from discontinued operations decreased $264,000 in 2007 as compared 2006.  The 16% decrease is primarily due to a decrease in third party loan servicing costs as a result of the decrease in our volume.
 
Our provision for finance receivable losses for 2007 was $178,000 less than for 2006.  The 27% decrease is a result of the decrease in the number of policies financed.
 
Our premium finance interest expense for 2007 was $178,000 less than for 2006.  The 22% decrease was due to a decrease in both the average outstanding balance of our revolving credit line and the interest rate in 2007 as compared to 2006.
 
Our discontinued premium finance operations, on a stand-alone basis, generated a net profit before income taxes of $517,000 in 2007 as compared to a net profit before income taxes of $618,000 in 2006.  The 16% decrease of $101,000 was primarily due to a 20% reduction in premium finance revenue in 2007, offset by reductions in personnel, provision for finance receivable losses, fees paid to service our premium finance operations, amortization and premium financing interest expense.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
As of December 31, 2007, we had $1,030,822 in cash and cash equivalents and a working capital deficit of $1,401,539.  As of December 31, 2006, we had $1,196,412 in cash and cash equivalents and working capital of $2,185,076.
 
As discussed below, during 2007, the holders of $1,500,000 outstanding principal amount of subordinated debt agreed to extend the maturity date of the debt from September 30, 2007 to September 30, 2008.  The $1,500,000 principal balance of these notes is included in our December 31, 2007 balance sheet under “Current Liabilities.”  In addition, as discussed below, effective March 23, 2007, the holder of our shares of Series A Preferred Stock (which were mandatorily redeemable on April 30, 2007) exchanged such shares for an equal number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock, which are mandatorily redeemable on April 30, 2008.  The mandatorily redeemable balance of $780,000 is included in our December 31, 2007 balance sheet under “Current Liabilities.”  We plan to seek to either further extend the maturity and redemption dates of these subordinated debt and redeemable Preferred Stock obligations, and/or refinance the obligations.
 
 We believe that, based on our present cash resources and the proceeds from the sale of our premium finance portfolio, and, assuming that our efforts with regard to the subordinated debt and redeemable Preferred Stock obligations, as discussed above, are successful, we will have sufficient cash on a short-term basis and over the next 12 months to fund our working capital needs.
 
Cash and cash equivalents decreased by $166,000 between December 31, 2006 and December 31, 2007 primarily due to the following:
 
·  
Net cash used in operating activities during the year ended December 31, 2007 was $374,000 primarily due to the following:  (i) non-cash charges of $572,000, which include depreciation and amortization, bad debts, deferred income taxes, amortization of warrants, stock-based payments, and the impairment of intangible assets, (ii) a decrease in accounts receivable of $458,000, (iii) a decrease in the operating activities from our discontinued operations of $91,000, which were offset primarily by the accretion of discount on notes receivable of $988,000.  The decrease in accounts receivable is primarily the result of a January 2007 payment of a revenue accrual from an insurance company, which did not continue in 2007, a reduction in the amount of policies sold, and the conversion of certain amounts due from franchisees into notes receivable.
 
19
 
·  
Net cash provided by investing activities during the year ended December 31, 2007 was $2,134,000 primarily due to the decrease in finance contracts receivable from discontinued operations which is a result of the reduction in the amount of policies financed in 2007 as compared to 2006.   Cash provided by investing activities was partially offset by purchases of property and equipment of $213,000, consisting of capitalized website development and enhancement costs, offset by the proceeds received from the sale of one of our stores.
 
·  
Net cash used in financing activities during the year ended December 31, 2007 was $1,925,000 primarily due to: (i) a $1,464,000 reduction in the revolving credit line utilized in discontinued operations and (ii) the scheduled principal reduction of $520,000 on our term loan with Manufacturers and Traders Trust Company (“M&T”).
 
Our discontinued premium finance operations were financed pursuant to a $20,000,000 revolving line of credit from M&T entered into on July 28, 2006.  The line of credit was terminated and paid in full on February 1, 2008 in connection with sale of our premium finance portfolio. The line called for interest at either (i) M&T’s prime rate or (ii) LIBOR plus 2.25%, and was secured by substantially all of our assets.  We were able to borrow against the line to the extent of 85% of eligible premium finance receivables. As of December 31, 2007, $9,488,000 was outstanding under the line. As of December 31, 2007, of the $13,723,000 balance of finance contracts receivable, approximately $11,119,000 represents eligible receivables for purposes of our finance credit agreement. The line of credit also allowed for a $2,500,000 term loan (of the $20,000,000 credit line availability) to be used to provide liquidity for ongoing working capital purposes.  Any draws against this line bear interest at LIBOR plus 2.75%.  As of July 28, 2006, we made our first draw of $1,300,000 against the term line.  The draw is repayable in quarterly principal installments of $130,000 each, commencing September 1, 2006.  The remaining principal balance is payable on June 30, 2008.  Interest is payable monthly.
 
We have no current commitments for capital expenditures.  However, we may, from time to time, consider acquisitions of complementary businesses, products or technologies.
 
In connection with our initial acquisition of the line of credit from M&T, we obtained a $3,500,000 secured subordinated loan to support our premium finance operations.  During 2005, we utilized the M&T line of credit to repay an aggregate of $2,000,000 of the subordinated debt.  The remaining balance of the loan was due in January 2006 and carries interest at the rate of 12-5/8% per annum.  In May 2005, we obtained an extension of the maturity date of the remaining subordinated debt to September 30, 2007.  During 2007, the holders of the $1,500,000 outstanding principal amount of subordinated debt agreed to extend the maturity date of the debt from September 30, 2007 to September 30, 2008.  On February 1, 2008, the M&T credit line was terminated and paid in full, effectively eliminating the subordinated nature of this debt.
 
 
20
Effective March 23, 2007, the holder of our Series A Preferred Stock exchanged such shares for an equal number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock. The Series B Preferred Stock is mandatorily redeemable on April 30, 2008.
 
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
 
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to investors.
 
Factors That May Affect Future Results and Financial Condition
 
Based upon the following factors, as well as other factors affecting our operating results and financial condition, past financial performance should not be considered to be a reliable indicator of future performance, and investors should not use historical trends to anticipate results or trends in future periods.  In addition, such factors, among others, may affect the accuracy of certain forward-looking statements contained in this Annual Report.
 
Because our core product is personal automobile insurance, our business may be adversely affected by negative developments in the conditions in this industry.
 
Approximately 89% of our revenues from continuing operations for 2007 were commissions and fees from the sale of personal automobile and other property and casualty insurance policies. As a result of our concentration in this line of business, negative developments in the economic, competitive or regulatory conditions affecting the personal automobile insurance industry could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.
 
Because substantially all of our insurance-related operations are located in New York and Pennsylvania, our business may be adversely affected by conditions in these states.
 
Substantially all of our insurance-related operations are located in the states of New York and Pennsylvania.  Our revenues and profitability are affected by the prevailing regulatory, economic, demographic, competitive and other conditions in these states.  Changes in any of these conditions could make it more costly or difficult for us to conduct our business. Adverse regulatory developments in New York or Pennsylvania, which could include fundamental changes to the design or implementation of the automobile insurance regulatory framework, could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.
 
If we lose key personnel or are unable to recruit qualified personnel, our ability to implement our business strategies could be delayed or hindered
 
Our future success will depend, in part, upon the efforts of Barry Goldstein, our Chief Executive Officer.  The loss of Mr. Goldstein or other key personnel could prevent us from fully implementing our business strategies and could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.  We have an employment agreement with Mr. Goldstein that expires on June 30, 2009.  As we continue to grow, we will need to recruit and retain additional qualified management personnel, but we may not be able to do so.  Our ability to recruit and retain such personnel will depend upon a number of factors, such as our results of operations and prospects and the level of competition then prevailing in the market for qualified personnel.
 
21
 
Reductions in the New York involuntary automobile insurance market may adversely affect our premium finance revenue.
 
Prior to the sale of our premium finance loan portfolio, our primary source of premium finance loans had been the assigned risk, or involuntary, automobile insurance market.  In New York, since mid-2003, there has been a decline of more than 75% in the number of new applications for coverage at the New York Auto Insurance Plan.  This has led to a reduction in the number of loans where policies of this type are the collateral.  We partially offset the rate of decline by increasing our loan originations at our Barry Scott locations and, effective January 2006, by offering premium financing to our Accurate locations.  In general, these loans are of a smaller average size as upstate New York premiums are generally lower in amount than those for a comparable downstate policy.  Beginning in 2004, we began to finance certain voluntary auto insurance policies.  We are now entitled to a placement fee based upon the amount of new premium finance loans made by the purchaser of our loan portfolio in the states of New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania.  There is no guaranty that the number or size of the loans in the voluntary marketplace will offset the declines experienced in the involuntary market.
 
The volatility of premium pricing and commission rates could adversely affect our operations.
 
We currently derive most of our insurance-related revenues from commissions paid by insurance companies.  The commission is usually a percentage of the premium billed to an insured. Insurance premiums are not determined by us.  Historically, property and casualty premiums have been cyclical in nature and have displayed a high degree of volatility based on economic and competitive conditions.  Because our commission revenue is paid to us based on insurance premiums, a decline in premium levels will have an adverse effect on our business.  In times of expanded underwriting capacity of insurance companies, premium rates have decreased causing a reduction in the commissions payable to us.  In addition, in many cases, insurance companies may seek to reduce their expenses by reducing the commission rates payable to insurance agents or brokers and generally reserve the right to make such reductions.  We cannot predict the timing or extent of future changes in commission rates or premiums and therefore cannot predict the effect, if any, that such changes would have on our operations.
 
We are subject to regulation that may restrict our ability to earn profits.
 
Our premium finance subsidiary is subject to regulation and supervision by the financial institution departments in the states where it offers to finance premiums.  Certain regulatory restrictions, including restrictions on the maximum permissible rates of interest for premium financing, and prior approval requirements may affect its ability to place premium contracts and generate placement fees.
 
22
 
The operations of our storefronts depend on their continued good standing under the licenses and approvals pursuant to which they operate.  Licensing laws and regulations vary from jurisdiction to jurisdiction. Such laws and regulations are subject to amendment or interpretation by regulatory authorities, and generally such authorities are vested with broad discretion as to the granting, suspending, renewing and revoking of licenses and approvals.
 
In addition, there are currently 42 DCAP franchises.  The offering of franchises is regulated by both the federal government and some states, including New York.
 
As a holding company, we are dependent on the results of operations of our operating subsidiaries.
 
We are a holding company and a legal entity separate and distinct from our operating subsidiaries. As a holding company without significant operations of our own, the principal sources of our funds are dividends and other payments from our operating subsidiaries.  Consequently, we must rely on our subsidiaries for our ability to repay debts, pay expenses and pay cash dividends to our shareholders.
 
Our business is highly competitive, which may make it difficult for us to market our core products effectively and profitably.
 
The personal automobile insurance business is highly competitive. We compete with numerous other insurance agents and brokers in our market.  The amount of capital required to commence operations as a broker or agent is generally small and the only material barrier to entry is the ability to obtain the required licenses and appointments as a broker or agent for insurance carriers.  We also compete with insurers, such as Progressive Direct, Esurance and GEICO Insurance, that sell insurance policies directly to consumers by the Internet and telephone, without a broker.
 
Some of our competitors have substantially greater financial and other resources than we have, and they may offer a broader range of products or offer competing products or services at lower prices. Our results of operations and financial condition could be materially and adversely affected by a loss of business to competitors offering similar insurance products or services at lower prices or having other competitive advantages.
 
A decline in the number of insurance companies offering insurance products in our markets would adversely affect our business.
 
Based upon economic conditions and loss history, insurance companies enter and leave our market.  A reduction in the number of available insurance products that we can offer to our customers would adversely affect our business.
 
We may have difficulties in managing our expansion into new geographic markets, and we may not be successful in identifying agency acquisition candidates or integrating their operations.
 
We may seek to expand into new markets by acquiring the business and assets of local agencies.  Any such future growth will face risks, including risks associated with our ability to identify agency acquisition candidates or, if acquired, to integrate their operations. In addition, we may acquire businesses in markets in which conditions may not be favorable to us.
 
 
23
Our inability to identify and acquire agency acquisition candidates could hinder our growth by slowing down our ability to expand into new markets. If we do acquire additional agencies, we could suffer increased costs, disruption of our business and distraction of our management if we are unable to integrate the acquired agencies into our operations smoothly. Our geographic expansion will also continue to place significant demands on our management, operations, systems, accounting, internal controls and financial resources. Any failure by us to manage our growth and to respond to changes in our business could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
 
We may seek to expand through acquisitions of complementary businesses or other assets which involve additional risks that may adversely affect us.
 
We continually evaluate the possible expansion of our operations through the acquisition of businesses or other assets which we believe will complement or enhance our business.  We may also acquire or make investments in complementary businesses, products, services or technologies.  In the event we effect any such acquisition, we may not be able to successfully integrate any acquired business, asset, product, service or technology in our operations without substantial costs, delays or other problems or otherwise successfully expand our operations.  In addition, efforts expended in connection with such acquisitions may divert our management’s attention from other business concerns.  We also may have to borrow money to pay for future acquisitions and we may not be able to do so at all or on terms favorable to us. Additional borrowings and liabilities may have a materially adverse effect on our liquidity and capital resources.
 
If we obtain a controlling interest in Commercial Mutual Insurance Company, we will face new risks and uncertainties.
 
As discussed in Item 1 hereof, in March 2007, Commercial Mutual Insurance Company’s Board of Directors adopted a resolution to convert Commercial Mutual from an advance premium insurance company to a stock property and casualty insurance company.  We hold surplus notes of Commercial Mutual in the aggregate principal amount of $3,750,000.  In the event the conversion occurs, we may be able to convert such notes into a controlling equity interest in Commercial Mutual.  We have never operated as an insurance company and would face all of the risks and uncertainties that come with operating such a company, including underwriting risks.
 
We rely on our information technology and telecommunication systems, and the failure of these systems could materially and adversely affect our business.
 
Our business is highly dependent upon the successful and uninterrupted functioning of our information technology and telecommunications systems.  We rely on these systems to support our operations, as well as to process new and renewal business, provide customer service, make claims payments, and facilitate collections and cancellations.  The failure of these systems could interrupt our operations and result in a material adverse effect on our business.
 
 
24
We have incurred, and will continue to incur, increased costs as a result of being an SEC reporting company.
 
The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as well as a variety of related rules implemented by the SEC, have required changes in corporate governance practices and generally increased the disclosure requirements of public companies.  As a reporting company, we incur significant legal, accounting and other expenses in connection with our public disclosure and other obligations.  Based upon SEC regulations currently in effect, we are required to establish, evaluate and report on our internal control over financial reporting commencing with our financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2007, and will be required to have our registered independent public accounting firm issue an attestation as to such reports commencing with our financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2009.  We believe that, based upon SEC regulations currently in effect, our general and administrative expenses, including amounts that will be spent on outside legal counsel, accountants and professionals and other professional assistance, will increase in 2008 over 2007, which could require us to allocate what may be limited cash resources away from our operations and business growth plans.  We also believe that compliance with the myriad of rules and regulations applicable to reporting companies and related compliance issues will divert time and attention of management away from operating and growing our business.
 
The enactment of tort reform could adversely affect our business.
 
Legislation concerning tort reform is from time to time considered in the United States Congress and in several states.  Among the provisions considered for inclusion in such legislation are limitations on damage awards, including punitive damages.  Enactment of these or similar provisions by Congress or by states in which we sell insurance could result in a reduction in the demand for liability insurance policies or a decrease in the limits of such policies, thereby reducing our commission revenues.  We cannot predict whether any such legislation will be enacted or, if enacted, the form such legislation will take, nor can we predict the effect, if any, such legislation would have on our business or results of operations.
 
ITEM 7.                      FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
The financial statements required by this Item 7 are included in this Annual Report following Item 14 hereof.
 
ITEM 8.                      CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND
FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE

25

ITEM 8A.                   CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
 
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
 
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e)) that are designed to assure that information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
 
As required by Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(b), as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report, under the supervision and with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures.  Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of that date.
 
Internal Control over Financial Reporting
 
Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
 
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, and effected by the board of directors, management, and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with US GAAP including those policies and procedures that: (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets, (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with US GAAP and that receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors, and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.  
 
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with policies and procedures may deteriorate.  
 
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. Based on this evaluation, management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of December 31, 2007.
 
26
 
A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Management identified the following material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007:  
 
Financial Reporting of a Subsidiary
 
Payments Inc., our wholly-owned subsidiary, utilized a third party service provider that does not provide a Type II SAS 70 report on its internal control. As a result, we determined that the internal control over financial reporting for Payments Inc. was not effective and was not designed to ensure that all information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act were accurately recorded, processed, summarized and reported. As more fully described in Item 1 of this Annual Report, the assets and liabilities of this subsidiary were sold in February 2008. As a result, the material weakness mentioned above has been remediated.
 
Information Technology Applications and Infrastructure
 
We did not maintain effective controls over financial reporting related to information technology applications and infrastructure. Specifically, the following deficiencies in the aggregate constituted a material weakness:
 
·  
We did not maintain effective design of controls over access to financial reporting applications and data. Controls do not limit access to programs and data to only authorized users. In addition, controls lack the requirement of periodic reviews and monitoring of such access.
 
·  
We did not maintain effective controls to communicate policies and procedures governing information technology security and access. Furthermore, we did not maintain effective logging and monitoring of servers and databases to ensure that access was both appropriate and authorized.
 
·  
We did not maintain effective controls designed to ensure that information technology program and data changes were authorized and properly managed. In addition, our controls did not ensure that the information technology program data changes were adequately tested for accuracy before implementation.
 
 These deficiencies have had a pervasive impact on our information technology control environment. Additionally, these deficiencies could result in a misstatement of account balances or disclosure to substantially all accounts that could result in a material misstatement to the consolidated financial statements that would not be prevented or detected.
 
We are in the process of developing and implementing a remediation plan to address the material weaknesses related to information technology applications and infrastructure. We have hired a consulting firm to advise us in connection with the remediation of the existing deficiencies.
 
27
 
This Annual Report does not include an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting.  Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the SEC that permit us to provide only management’s report in this Annual Report.
 
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
 
There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting during our most recently completed fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

ITEM 12.
CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE
 
Subordinated Debt Financing
 
Effective July 10, 2003, in order to fund our premium finance operations, we obtained $3,500,000 from a private placement of subordinated debt.  The subordinated debt was initially repayable on January 10, 2006 and provides for interest at the rate of 12.625% per annum, payable semi-annually.  Subject to M&T’s consent, we have the right to prepay the subordinated debt.  During 2005, we utilized our M&T line of credit to repay $2,000,000 of the subordinated debt.
 
In consideration of the debt financing, we issued to the lenders warrants for the purchase of an aggregate of 105,000 of our common shares at an exercise price of $6.25 per share.  The warrants were initially scheduled to expire on January 10, 2006.  Effective May 25, 2005, the holders of the remaining $1,500,000 of subordinated debt agreed to extend the maturity date of the debt to September 30, 2007.  The debt extension was given to satisfy a requirement of M&T that arose in connection with the December 2004 increase in M&T’s revolving line of credit to $25,000,000 and the extension of the line to June 30, 2007.  In consideration for the extension of the due date for the subordinated debt, we extended the expiration date of warrants held by the debtholders for the purchase of 97,500 common shares to September 30, 2007.  During 2007, the holders of the $1,500,000 subordinated debt agreed to a further extension of the due date to September 30, 2008.  In consideration for such further extension, we further extended the expiration date of the warrants held by the debtholders for the purchase of 90,000 common shares to September 30, 2008.
 
One of the private placement lenders was a retirement trust established for the benefit of Jack Seibald which loaned us $625,000 and was issued a warrant for the purchase of 18,750 of our common shares.  Mr. Seibald is one of our principal stockholders and, effective September 2004, became one of our directors.  Mr. Seibald’s retirement trust currently holds approximately $288,000 of the subordinated debt and he indirectly owns or controls 48,750 warrants, including those issued at the time of the loan.
 
 
37
In September 2007, a limited liability company of which Mr. Goldstein is a minority member purchased from a debtholder a subordinated note in the approximate principal amount of $115,000 and a warrant for the purchase of 7,500 shares.  In connection with the purchase, the maturity date of the debt and the expiration date of the warrant were extended as discussed above.
 
Commercial Mutual Insurance Company
 
On January 31, 2006, we purchased two surplus notes in the aggregate principal amount of $3,750,000 issued by Commercial Mutual Insurance Company.  Commercial Mutual is a New York property and casualty insurer.
 
Concurrently with the purchase, the new Commercial Mutual Board of Directors elected Barry Goldstein, our President, Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer, as its Chairman. Mr. Goldstein had been elected as a director of Commercial Mutual in December 2005.
 
Reference is made to Item 1(b) of this Annual Report for a discussion of a contemplated conversion of Commerce Mutual from an advance premium insurance company to a stock property and casualty insurance company and the possible conversion by us of our surplus notes into a controlling interest in Commercial Mutual.
 
Exchange of Preferred Stock
 
Effective March 23, 2007, we issued 780 Series B preferred shares to AIA Acquisition Corp. (“AIA”) in exchange for an equal number of our outstanding Series A preferred shares. The terms of the Series B preferred shares are substantially identical to those of the Series A preferred stock, except that they are mandatorily redeemable on April 30, 2008 (as opposed to April 30, 2007 for the Series A preferred shares).  The current aggregate redemption amount for the Series B preferred shares is $780,000, plus accumulated and unpaid dividends.  AIA, as the holder of the Series B preferred shares, is entitled to dividends at the rate of 5% per annum.  The Series B preferred shares are convertible into our common shares at a price of $2.50 per share.  Members of the family of Barry B. Goldstein, our President, Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer, are principal stockholders of AIA.
 
Relationship
 
Certilman Balin Adler & Hyman, LLP, a law firm with which Mr. Certilman is affiliated, serves as our counsel.  It is presently anticipated that such firm will continue to represent us and will receive fees for its services at rates and in amounts not greater than would be paid to unrelated law firms performing similar services.

DCAP Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Hewlett, New York
 
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of DCAP Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2007 and 2006 and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.
 
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, audits of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
 
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of DCAP Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2007 and 2006  and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Notes to Financial Statements
Years Ended December 31, 2007 and 2006
 
1.
Organization and Nature of Business
   
 
DCAP Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries (referred to herein as "we" or "us") operate a network of retail offices and franchise operations engaged in the sale of retail auto, motorcycle, boat, business, and homeowner's insurance, and until February 1, 2008 provided premium financing of insurance policies for customers of our offices as well as customers of non-affiliated entities. On February 1, 2008, we sold our outstanding premium finance loan portfolio (see Notes 17 and 22). As a result of the sale, our premium financing operations have been classified as discontinued operations and prior periods have been restated. The purchaser of the premium finance portfolio has agreed that, during the five year period ending January 31, 2013 (subject to automatic renewal for successive two year terms under certain circumstances), it will purchase, assume and service premium finance contracts originated by us in the states of New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania. In connection with such purchases, we will be entitled to receive a fee generally equal to a percentage of the amount financed.  Our continuing operations of the premium financing business will consist of the revenue earned from placement fees and any related expenses.  We also provide automobile club services for roadside emergencies and tax preparation services.
   
2.
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
   
 
Principles of consolidation - The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of all subsidiaries and joint ventures in which we have a majority voting interest or voting control. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
   
 
Commission and fee income - We recognize commission revenue from insurance policies at the beginning of the contract period. Refunds of commissions on the cancellation of insurance policies are reflected at the time of cancellation.
   
 
Franchise fee revenue on initial franchisee fees is recognized when substantially all of our contractual requirements under the franchise agreement are completed. Franchisees also pay a monthly franchise fee plus an applicable percentage of advertising expense. We are obligated to provide marketing and training support to each franchisee.  During the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, approximately $110,000 and $50,000, respectively, was recognized as initial franchise fee income.
   
 
Fees for income tax preparation are recognized when the services are completed. Automobile club dues are recognized equally over the contract period.
   
 
Allowance for doubtful accounts - Management must make estimates of the uncollectability of accounts receivable. Management specifically analyzed accounts receivable and analyzes historical bad debts, customer concentrations, customer credit-worthiness, current economic trends and changes in customer payment terms when evaluating the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts.

 
Goodwill and intangible assets - Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over fair value of identifiable net assets acquired from business acquisitions. In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (“SFAS”) No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets,” goodwill is no longer amortized, but is reviewed for impairment on an annual basis and between annual tests in certain circumstances. We conduct our annual impairment test for goodwill at the beginning of the first quarter. We performed the required impairment test for fiscal years 2007 and 2006 and found no impairment of goodwill. There can be no assurance that future goodwill impairment tests will not result in a charge to earnings.

Other Intangibles - SFAS No. 142 requires purchased intangible assets other than goodwill to be amortized over their useful lives unless those lives are determined to be indefinite. Purchased intangible assets are carried at cost less accumulated amortization. Definite-lived intangible assets, which include customer and phone, have been assigned an estimated finite life and are amortized on a straight-line basis over periods ranging from 3 to 15 years. If the value of the intangible asset is determined to be impaired, the asset is written down to the current fair value.
   
 
Property and equipment - Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. Leasehold improvements are being amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets or the remaining term of the lease.
   
 
Concentration of credit risk - We invest our excess cash in deposits and money market accounts with major financial institutions and have not experienced losses related to these investments.
   
 
We perform ongoing credit evaluations and generally do not require collateral.
   
 
Cash and cash equivalents - We consider all highly liquid debt instruments with a maturity of three months or less, as well as bank money market accounts, to be cash equivalents.
   
 
Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The most significant estimates include the allowance for finance receivable losses. It is reasonably possible that events could occur during the upcoming year which could change such estimates.
   
 
Net income per share - Basic net income per share is computed by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share reflect, in periods in which they have a dilutive effect, the impact of common shares issuable upon exercise of stock options and conversion of mandatorily redeemable preferred stock. The computation of diluted earnings per share excludes those options and warrants with an exercise price in excess of the average market price of our Common Stock during the periods presented. For the year ended December 31, 2006, the inclusion of 361,124 of options and warrants in the computation of diluted earnings per share would have been anti-dilutive. During the year ended December 31, 2007, we recorded a loss available to common shareholders and, as a result, the weighted average number of shares of Common Stock used in the calculation of basic and diluted loss per share is the same, and have not been adjusted for the effects of 678,124 potential shares of Common Stock from unexercised stock options and warrants, and the conversion of Convertible Preferred Stock, which were anti-dilutive for such period.
   
 
The reconciliation for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006 is as follows:

Years Ended December 31,
2007
   
2006

Advertising costs - Advertising costs are charged to operations when the advertising first takes place. Included in general and administrative expenses are advertising costs approximating $596,000 and $479,000 for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively.
   
 
Impairment of long-lived assets - We review long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles to be held and used for impairment on an annual basis and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. If other events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset that we expect to hold and use may not be recoverable, we will estimate the undiscounted future cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset or its eventual disposition, and recognize an impairment loss. The impairment loss, if determined to be necessary, would be measured as the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. A similar evaluation is made in relation to goodwill, with any impairment loss measured as the amount by which the carrying value of such goodwill exceeds the expected undiscounted future cash flows.
   
 
Income taxes - Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based upon the differences between financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities, and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse.
   
 
Share-based compensation - Prior to January 1, 2006, we accounted for share-based compensation under the recognition and measurement principles of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" ("APB 25"). Therefore, we measured compensation expense for our share-based compensation using the intrinsic value method, that is, as the excess, if any, of the fair market value of our stock at the grant date over the amount required to be paid to acquire the stock, and provided the disclosures required by SFAS 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" (“SFAS 123”) and SFAS 148, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation-Transition and Disclosure" (“SFAS 148”).

Effective January 1, 2006, we began recording compensation expense associated with stock options and other equity-based compensation in accordance with SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004), “Share-Based Payment” (“SFAS 123(R)”) using the modified prospective transition method and therefore we have not restated results for prior periods. Under the modified prospective transition method, share-based compensation expense includes (1) compensation expense for all share-based awards granted on or after January 1, 2006 as determined based on the grant-date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of SFAS 123(R) and (2) compensation expense for share-based compensation awards granted prior to, but not yet vested, as of January 1, 2006, based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the original provisions of SFAS 123. We recognize compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the award

 
Website development costs - Technology and content costs are generally expensed as incurred, except for certain costs relating to the development of internal-use software, including those relating to operating our website, that are capitalized and depreciated over two years. A total of approximately $53,000 and $43,000 in such costs were incurred during the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively.
   
 
Comprehensive income (loss) - Comprehensive income (loss) refers to revenue, expenses, gains and losses that under generally accepted accounting principles are included in comprehensive income but are excluded from net income as these amounts are recorded directly as an adjustment to stockholders' equity. At December 31, 2007 and 2006, there were no such adjustments required.

 
New accounting pronouncements
   
 
In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Financial Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes — an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (“FIN 48”), which clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in tax positions. FIN 48 requires that we recognize the impact of a tax position in our financial statements if that position is more likely than not to be sustained on audit, based on the technical merits of the position. The provisions of FIN 48 are effective in the first quarter of  2007, with the cumulative effect of the change in accounting principle, if any, recorded as an adjustment to opening retained earnings. The adoption of FIN 48 did not have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.
   
 
In September 2006, the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") released Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 108, “Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements When Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements” (“SAB 108”). SAB 108 provides interpretive guidance on the SEC’s views regarding the process of quantifying the materiality of misstatements in the financial statements. SAB 108 is effective for fiscal years ending after November 15, 2006, and early application for the first interim period of the same fiscal year is encouraged. The application of SAB 108 did not have a material effect on our financial position or results of operations.
   
 
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“SFAS 157”). SFAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework and gives guidance regarding the methods used in measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years. We are currently evaluating the impact of adopting SFAS 157 on our consolidated financial statements.

In January 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities — Including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115” (“SFAS No. 159”). SFAS No. 159 is intended 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. It also establishes presentation and disclosure requirements designed to facilitate comparisons between entities that choose different measurement attributes for similar types of assets and liabilities. The statement does not affect any existing accounting literature that requires certain assets and liabilities to be carried at fair value, and it does not establish requirements for recognizing dividend income, interest income or interest expense. It also does not eliminate disclosure requirements included in other accounting standards. The provisions of SFAS 159 are effective for the fiscal year beginning after November 15, 2007. We are currently evaluating the impact of the provisions of SFAS No. 159.
   
 
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141(R), “Business Combinations”.  Effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, this statement revises and converges internationally the accounting for business combinations.  The adoption of this statement is not expected to have a material impact on our financial statements.
   
 
In December 2007, the FASB also issued SFAS No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements.” Effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, this statement revises and converges internationally the reporting of noncontrolling interests in consolidated financial statements. The adoption of this statement is not expected to have a material impact on our financial statements.

3.
Business Acquisitions
   
 
Effective January 1, 2006, we acquired substantially all of the assets of Accurate Agency of Western New York, Inc., Louisons Associates Limited and Accurate Agency, Inc. (collectively, “Accurate”), insurance brokerage firms with a total of four offices located in and around Rochester, New York.
   
 
The aggregate purchase price was $1,600,000, including $800,000 of cash with the balance paid through the issuance of an $800,000 non-interest bearing note payable over 72 months commencing on January 10, 2007.  The note has been recorded at its estimated present value of $612,481.  The purchase price of $1,447,022, including transaction costs of $34,541, was allocated as follows:

Goodwill
  $ 1,157,286  
Intangible Assets
    280,686  
Property and Equipment
    9,050  
Net Assets Acquired
  $ 1,447,022  

 
In January 2006, we purchased the book of business, customer list and certain other assets of  Mid–Hudson Valley Brokerage, LLC (“Mid-Hudson”) located in Poughkeepsie, New York, for $94,505 in cash. The net purchase price of $98,709, including transactions costs of $4,740, was allocated as follows:

Goodwill
  $ 78,420  
Intangible Assets
    20,289  
Net Assets Acquired
  $ 98,709  

 
The aggregate intangible assets acquired have been assigned to customer lists, which is subject to periodic amortization over a weighted average estimated useful life of four years. Our consolidated statement of operations includes the revenue and expenses of Accurate and Mid-Hudson from January 2006.

Notes Receivable
   
 
Purchase of Notes Receivable
 
On January 31, 2006, we purchased from Eagle Insurance Company (“Eagle”) two surplus notes issued by Commercial Mutual Insurance Company (“CMIC”) in the aggregate principal amount of $3,750,000 (the “Surplus Notes”), plus accrued interest of $1,794,688. The aggregate purchase price for the Surplus Notes was $3,075,141, of which $1,303,434 was paid to Eagle by delivery of a six month promissory note which provided for interest at the rate of 7.5% per annum.  The promissory note was paid in full on July 28, 2006.  CMIC is a New York property and casualty insurer. Eagle is a New Jersey property and casualty insurer that is subject to an Order of Liquidation issued by the New Jersey Department of Banking and Insurance (which order has been stayed pending appeal).  Eagle owns approximately 10% of our outstanding common stock.  The Surplus Notes acquired by us are past due and provide for interest at the prime rate or 8.5% per annum, whichever is less.  Payments of principal and interest on the Surplus Notes may only be made out of the surplus of CMIC and require the approval of the New York State Department of Insurance.  During the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, interest payments totaling $125,000 and $250,000, respectively, were received.  The discount on the Surplus Notes and the accrued interest at the time of acquisition are being accreted over a 30 month period, the estimated period to collect such amounts.  Such accretion amount, together with interest on the Surplus Notes for the periods ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, are included in our consolidated statement of operations as “Interest income-notes receivable.”
 
Possible Future Conversion of Notes Receivable
 
In March 2007, CMIC's Board of Directors adopted a resolution to convert CMIC from an advance premium cooperative insurance company to a stock property and casualty  insurance company.  CMIC has advised us that it has obtained permission from the Superintendent of Insurance of the State of New York to proceed with the conversion process (subject to certain conditions as discussed below).
 
The conversion by CMIC to a stock property and casualty insurance company is subject to a number of conditions, including the approval of the plan of conversion by the Superintendent of Insurance and CMIC’s policyholders.  As part of the approval process, the Superintendent of Insurance had an appraisal performed with respect to the fair market value of CMIC as of December 31, 2006.  In addition, the Insurance Department conducted a five year examination of CMIC as of December 31, 2006. We, as a holder of the CMIC surplus notes, at our option, would be able to exchange the surplus notes for an equitable share of the securities or other consideration, or both, of the corporation into which CMIC would be converted.  Based upon the amount payable on the surplus notes and the statutory surplus of CMIC, we believe that, following any conversion by CMIC into a stock corporation, we could hold a controlling equity interest in CMIC.  It is anticipated that the conversion will be completed within the next twelve months.  No assurances can be given that the conversion will occur.
 
Our Chairman is also Chairman of CMIC and one of our other directors and our Chief Accounting Officer are also directors of CMIC.

Subordinated loan, which bears interest at 12.625% per annum, payable semi-annually. The principal balance is due and payable on September 30, 2008. The loan was subordinate to the revolving credit facility included in discontinued operations, and was secured by a security interest in the assets of our premium finance subsidiary and a pledge of our subsidiary's stock. Effective February 1, 2008, upon the sale of the premium finance portfolio, the loan is no longer subordinated to the revolving credit facility and there is no longer a security interest in the assets of our premium financing subsidiary; however, the loan is still subordinated to the above term loan from Manufacturers and Traders Trust Company.

In consideration for the extension of the due date of the subordinated debt, we extended the expiration date of warrants held by the debtholders for the purchase of 97,500 of our shares of Common Stock from September 30, 2007 to September 30, 2008. The holder of the $115,000 of subordinated debt is a limited liability company in which our President, Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer owns a minority interest.

At December 31, 2007, we had net operating loss carryforwards for tax purposes, which expire at various dates through 2019, of approximately $1,589,000. These net operating loss carryforwards are subject to Internal Revenue Code Section 382, which places a limitation on the utilization of the federal net operating loss to approximately $10,000 per year, as a result of a greater than 50% ownership change of DCAP Group, Inc. in 1999. We did not utilize any net operating loss carryforwards during the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006 to offset current taxable income. Our taxable loss for the year ended December 31, 2007 is approximately $1,132,000. This loss will either be carried back or will be available for future years, expiring through December 31, 2027.

Mandatorily Redeemable Preferred Stock
   
 
On May 8, 2003, we issued 904 shares of $.01 par value 5.0% Series A Preferred Stock in connection with the acquisition of substantially all of the assets of AIA.  The Series A Preferred Stock has a liquidation preference of $1,000 per share. Dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock are cumulative and are payable in cash.
   
 
Each share of the Series A Preferred Stock is convertible at the option of the holder at any time into shares of our Common Stock at a conversion rate of $2.50 per share.
   
 
On January 15, 2005, the preferred stockholder converted 124 shares of Series A Preferred Stock into 49,600 shares of our Common Stock.
   
 
Subject to legal availability of funds, the Series A Preferred Stock was mandatorily redeemable by us for cash at its liquidation preference on April 30, 2007 (unless previously converted into our Common Stock). Effective March 23, 2007, the holder of the Series A Preferred Stock agreed to exchange the Series A Preferred Stock for a new Series B Preferred Stock that is mandatorily redeemable by us for cash at its liquidation preference on April 30, 2008 (unless previously converted into our Common Stock).  Redemption of the Series B Preferred Stock can occur prior to April 30, 2008 upon a substantial sale by us, as defined.  The terms of the Series B Preferred Stock are the same as the Series A Preferred Stock with the exception of the redemption date.
   
 
In accordance with SFAS No. 150, "Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity", the Series A Preferred Stock and the Series B Preferred Stock have been reported as a liability, and the preferred dividends have been classified as interest expense.

Treasury Stock - In June 2007, a shareholder tendered 4,500 shares of Common Stock to us to settle an obligation due us of approximately $7,200. The tendered shares were recorded as an increase in treasury stock, valued at the balance of the obligation.
   
 
Warrants - On July 10, 2003, in connection with the issuance of the subordinated debt, we issued warrants to purchase 105,000 shares of our Common Stock at an exercise price of $6.25 per share (the "Warrants"). The Warrants were valued at $147,000 and were being amortized as additional interest expense over the term of the associated debt. The Warrants were scheduled to expire on January 10, 2006. Effective May 25, 2005, the holders of $1,500,000 outstanding principal amount of our subordinated debt agreed to extend the maturity date of the debt from January 10, 2006 to September 30, 2007. This extension was given to satisfy a requirement of our premium finance lender that arose in connection with the increase in our revolving line of credit to $25,000,000 and the extension of the line to June 30, 2007. In consideration for the extension of the due date of our subordinated debt, we extended the expiration date of Warrants held by the debt holders for the purchase of 97,500 shares of our Common Stock from January 10, 2006 to September 30, 2007. The extension of the Warrants was valued at approximately $148,000 and is being amortized as additional interest expense over the extension period.  In March 2007 and September 2007, holders of approximately $1,385,000 and $115,000, respectively, of the principal amount of the subordinated loan agreed to extend the maturity date of this loan from September 30, 2007 to September 30, 2008.  In consideration for the extension of the due date of our subordinated debt, we extended the expiration date of Warrants held by the debt holders for the purchase of 97,500 shares of our Common Stock from September 30, 2007 to September 30, 2008.
   
 
Stock Options - In November 1998, we adopted the 1998 Stock Option Plan (the “1998 Plan”), which provides for the issuance of incentive stock options and non-statutory stock options. Under this plan, options to purchase not more than 400,000 shares of our Common Stock were permitted to be granted, at a price to be determined by our Board of Directors or the Stock Option Committee at the time of grant. During 2002, we increased the number of shares of Common Stock authorized to be issued pursuant to the 1998 Plan to 750,000. Incentive stock options granted under this plan expire no later than ten years from date of grant (except no later than five years for a grant to a 10% stockholder). Our Board of Directors or the Stock Option Committee will determine the expiration date with respect to non-statutory options granted under this plan.
   
 
In December 2005, our shareholders ratified the adoption of the 2005 Equity Participation Plan (together with the 1998 Plan, the “Plans”), which provides for the issuance of incentive stock options, non-statutory stock options and restricted stock. Under this plan, a maximum of 300,000 shares of Common Stock may be issued pursuant to options granted and restricted stock issued. Incentive stock options granted under this plan expire no later than ten years from date of grant (except no later than five years for a grant to a 10% stockholder). Our Board of Directors or the Stock Option Committee will determine the expiration date with respect to non-statutory options, and the vesting provisions for restricted stock, granted under this plan.
   
 
Effective January 1, 2006, our plans are accounted for in accordance with the recognition and measurement provisions of SFAS No. 123(R), which replace SFAS No. 123 and supersede APB 25, and related interpretations. FAS 123(R) requires compensation costs related to share-based payment transactions, including employee stock options, to be recognized in the financial statements. In addition, we adhere to the guidance set forth within SEC SAB No. 107, which provides the Staff's views regarding the interaction between SFAS 123(R) and certain SEC rules and regulations and provides interpretations with respect to the valuation of share-based payments for public companies.
   
 
Prior to January 1, 2006, we accounted for similar transactions in accordance with APB 25 which employed the intrinsic value method of measuring compensation cost. Accordingly, compensation expense was not recognized for fixed stock options if the exercise price of the option equaled or exceeded the fair value of the underlying stock at the grant date.

While SFAS 123 encouraged recognition of the fair value of all stock-based awards on the date of grant as an expense over the vesting period, companies were permitted to continue to apply the intrinsic value-based method of accounting prescribed by APB 25 and disclose certain pro forma amounts as if the fair value approach of SFAS 123 had been applied.  In December 2002, SFAS No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation-Transition and Disclosure,” an amendment of SFAS 123, was issued, which, in addition to providing alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation, required more prominent pro forma disclosures in both the annual and interim financial statements. We complied with these disclosure requirements for all applicable periods prior to January 1, 2006.
   
 
In adopting SFAS 123(R), we applied the modified prospective approach to transition. Under the modified prospective approach, the provisions of SFAS 123(R) are to be applied to new awards and to awards modified, repurchased, or cancelled after the required effective date. Additionally, compensation cost for the portion of awards for which the requisite service has not been rendered that are outstanding as of the required effective date shall be recognized as the requisite service is rendered on or after the required effective date. The compensation cost for that portion of awards shall be based on the grant-date fair value of those awards as calculated for either recognition or pro-forma disclosures under SFAS 123.
   
 
As a result of the adoption of SFAS 123(R), our results for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006 include share-based compensation expense totaling approximately $97,000 and $30,000, respectively, and a tax benefit of approximately $43,000 and $13,500, respectively.  Such amounts have been included in the Consolidated Statement of Income within general and administrative expenses.
 
Stock option compensation expense in 2007 and 2006 is the estimated fair value of options granted amortized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period for entire portion of the award less an estimate for anticipated forfeitures.
   
 
The weighted average estimated fair value of stock options granted in the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006 was $1.22 and $1.46, respectively, per share.  The fair value of options at the date of grant was estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. During 2007 and 2006, we took into consideration the guidance under SFAS 123(R) and SAB No. 107 when reviewing and updating assumptions. The expected volatility is based upon historical volatility of our stock and other contributing factors. The expected term is based upon observation of actual time elapsed between date of grant and exercise of options for all employees. Previously such assumptions were determined based on historical data.

 
The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The following weighted average assumptions were used for grants during the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006:

The Black-Scholes option valuation model was developed for use in estimating the fair value of traded options, which have no vesting restrictions and are fully transferable. In addition, option valuation models require the input of highly subjective assumptions including the expected stock price volatility. Because our stock options have characteristics significantly different from those of traded options, and because changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate, in management's opinion, the existing models do not necessarily provide a reliable single measure of the fair value of our stock options.

The aggregate intrinsic value of options outstanding and options exercisable at December 31, 2007 is calculated as the difference between the exercise price of the underlying options and the market price of our Common Stock for the shares that had exercise prices, that were lower than the $1.67 closing price of our Common Stock on December 31, 2007. The total intrinsic value of options exercised in the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006 was $96,750 and $135,150, respectively, determined as of the date of exercise. We received cash proceeds from options exercised in the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006 of approximately $112,000 and $191,000, respectively.
 
A summary of the status of our non-vested options as of December 31, 2007 and the changes during the year ended December 31, 2007, is as follows:

Discontinued Operations
 
On February 1, 2008, we sold our outstanding premium finance loan portfolio. Under the terms of the sale, the purchaser of the premium finance portfolio has agreed that, during the five year period ending January 31, 2013 (subject to automatic renewal for successive two year terms under certain circumstances), it will purchase, assume and service all eligible premium finance contracts originated by us in the states of New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania.  In connection with such purchases, we will be entitled to receive a fee generally equal to a percentage of the amount financed. As a result of the sale of the premium finance portfolio on February 1, 2008, the operating results of the premium financing operations for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006 have been presented as discontinued operations.  Net assets and liabilities to be disposed of or liquidated, at their book value, have been separately classified in the accompanying balance sheets at December 31, 2007 and 2006. Continuing operations of our premium financing operations will only consist of placement fee revenue and any related expenses.

Finance income, fees and receivables - For our premium finance operations, we are using the interest method to recognize interest income over the life of each loan in accordance with SFAS No. 91, "Accounting for Nonrefundable Fees and Costs Associated with Originating or Acquiring Loans and Initial Direct Costs of Leases."
   
 
Upon the establishment of a premium finance contract, we record the gross loan payments as a receivable with a corresponding reduction for deferred interest. The deferred interest is amortized to interest income using the interest method over the life of each loan. The weighted average interest rate charged with respect to financed insurance policies was approximately 26.37% and 26.49% per annum for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

 
Upon completion of collection efforts, after cancellation of the underlying insurance policies, any uncollected earned interest or fees are charged off.

Allowance for finance receivable losses - Customers who purchase insurance policies are often unable to pay the premium in a lump sum and, therefore, require extended payment terms. Premium finance involves making a loan to the customer that is backed by the unearned portion of the insurance premiums being financed. No credit checks are made prior to the decision to extend credit to a customer. Losses on finance receivables include an estimate of future credit losses on premium finance accounts. Credit losses on premium finance accounts occur when the unearned premiums received from the insurer upon cancellation of a financed policy are inadequate to pay the balance of the premium finance account. After collection attempts are exhausted, the remaining account balance, including unrealized interest, is written off. We review historical trends of such losses relative to finance receivable balances to develop estimates of future losses. However, actual write-offs may differ materially from the write-off estimates that we used. For the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, the provision for finance receivable losses was approximately $472,000 and $650,000, respectively, and actual principal write-offs for such years, net of actual and anticipated recoveries of previous write-offs, were approximately $522,000 and $679,000, respectively. If our provision for finance receivable losses was understated by 10% because our actual write-offs were greater than anticipated, the effect would have been a reduction in our basic earnings per share by approximately $0.01 and $0.01 for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

 
Deferred loan costs - Deferred loan costs are amortized on a straight-line basis over the related term of the loan.

 
Concentration of credit risk –All finance contracts receivable are repayable in less than one year. In the event of a default by the borrower, we are entitled to cancel the underlying insurance policy financed and receive a refund for the unused term of such policy from the insurance carrier. We structure the repayment terms in an attempt to minimize principal losses on finance contract receivables.

 
Finance Contract Receivables  - A summary of the changes of the allowance for finance receivable losses is as follows:

December 31,
 
2007
   
2006
 
             
 Balance, beginning of year
  $ 205,269     $ 234,029  
 Provision for finance receivable losses
    472,266       650,005  
 Charge-offs
    (503,923 )     (678,765 )
 Balance, end of year
  $ 173,612     $ 205,269  

 
Finance receivables are collateralized by the unearned premiums of the related insurance policies. These finance receivables have an average remaining contractual maturity of approximately four months, with the longest contractual maturity being approximately ten months.

 
Revolving Credit Facility - On December 27, 2004, we entered into a revolving line of credit (the “Old Revolver”) with Manufacturers and Traders Trust Company (the “Bank”), which provided for an increase in the credit line to $25,000,000. Subject to certain conditions, the Bank had agreed to arrange an additional $10,000,000 credit facility with other lenders on a "best efforts" basis. The Old Revolver bore interest, at our option, at either (i) the Bank's prime lending rate (7.25% at December 31, 2005) or (ii) LIBOR (4.34% at December 31, 2005) plus 2.5%, and was scheduled to mature on June 30, 2007. We could borrow against the line to the extent of 85% of eligible premium finance receivables.

On July 28, 2006, we and our premium finance subsidiary, Payments, Inc., entered into a new revolving line of credit (the “New Revolver”) with the Bank, which provided for a decrease in the credit line to $20,000,000 and the elimination of the Bank’s agreement to arrange an additional $10,000,000 credit facility with other lenders on a “best efforts” basis.  The New Revolver bore interest, at our option, at either the Bank’s prime lending rate (7.25% at December 31, 2007) or LIBOR (5.24% at December 31, 2007) plus 2.25%, and was scheduled to mature on June 30, 2008.  The line of credit also allows for a $2,500,000 term loan (of the $20,000,000 credit line availability) to be used to provide liquidity for ongoing working capital purposes.  Any draws against the term line bear interest at LIBOR plus 2.75%.  As of July 28, 2006, we made our first draw against the term line of $1,300,000.  The draw is repayable in quarterly principal installments of $130,000 each, commencing September 1, 2006.  The remaining principal balance is payable on June 30, 2008.  Interest is payable monthly.  The New Revolver eliminated the personal guaranty required of our CEO of $1,250,000 but continued his obligation on an unlimited wind-down guaranty and his personal guaranty as to misrepresentations that relate to dishonest or fraudulent acts committed by him or known but not timely reported by him.  The New Revolver also allowed for a reduction of life insurance coverage on the life of our CEO from $4,000,000 to $1,500,000.
   
 
The New Revolver was secured by substantially all of the assets of our premium finance subsidiary, Payments, Inc., and was guaranteed by DCAP Group, Inc. and its subsidiaries. The New Revolver was paid in full and terminated on February 1, 2008 upon the closing of the sale of our premium finance loan portfolio (see Note 22).

Fair Value of Financial Instruments
   
 
The methods and assumptions used to estimate the fair value of the following classes of financial instruments were:
   
 
Current Assets and Current Liabilities: The carrying values of cash, accounts receivables, finance contract receivables and payables and certain other short-term financial instruments approximate their fair value.
   
 
Long-Term Debt: The fair value of our long-term debt, including the current portion, was estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis, based on our assumed incremental borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements. The carrying amount of variable and fixed rate debt at December 31, 2007 and 2006 approximates fair value.

Subsequent Event
   
 
On February 1, 2008, our wholly-owned subsidiary, Payments Inc. (“Payments”), sold its outstanding premium finance loan portfolio to Premium Financing Specialists, Inc. (“PFS”). The purchase price for the acquired net loan portfolio was approximately $11,845,000, of which approximately $268,000 was paid to Payments, and the remainder of the purchase price was satisfied by the assumption of liabilities, including the satisfaction of our premium finance revolving credit line obligation to Manufacturers and Traders Trust Company. As additional consideration, Payments will be entitled to receive an amount based upon the net earnings generated by the acquired loan portfolio as it is collected.
 
PFS has agreed that, during the five year period ending January 31, 2013 (subject to automatic renewal for successive two year terms under certain circumstances), it will purchase, assume and service all eligible premium finance contracts originated by Payments in the states of New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania.  In connection with such purchases, PFS shall be obligated to pay to Payments a fee generally equal to a percentage of the amount financed.
 
As a result of the sale of the premium finance portfolio on February 1, 2008, our premium financing operations have been presented as discontinued operations. After February 1, 2008, premium financing operations will only consist of placement fee revenue and any related expenses.
 
Simultaneously with the closing, our revolving line of credit with Manufacturers and Traders Trust Company was terminated.
