SUNAIR SERVICES CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
1. Basis of Consolidated Financial Statement Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
Sunair Services Corporation and its subsidiaries (the Company), required to be consolidated in
accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). The accompanying unaudited
condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting
policies described in the September 30, 2008 Annual Report on Form 10-K should be read in
conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto.
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the three months ended December 31,
2008 and 2007 included herein have been prepared in accordance with the instructions for Form 10-Q
under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Article 8 of Regulation S-X under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included
in financial statements prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations
relating to interim financial statements.
In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial
statements contain only normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the Companys
financial position as of December 31, 2008, and the results of its operations and cash flows for
the three months ended December 31, 2008 and 2007. Operating results for the three months ended
December 31, 2008 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal
year ending September 30, 2009.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Revenue Recognition
The Companys revenue recognition policies are designed to recognize revenues at the time services
are rendered or when goods change hands.
Lawn and ornamental services are primarily recurring in nature on a bi-monthly basis. In general
lawn and ornamental customers sign an initial one year contract, and revenues are recognized when
services are rendered. The Company offers a discount to those customers who prepay a full year of
services. The Company defers recognition of these advance payments and the related discounts until
the underlying services have been rendered.
Pest control services primarily are billed annually with services being rendered on a semi-annual
basis. In general pest control customers sign an initial one year contract. The Company recognizes
revenue over the life of these contracts in proportion to the direct costs incurred. These costs
have a direct relationship to the fulfillment of the Companys obligations under the contracts and
are representative of the value provided to the customer.
Termite baiting is primarily billed annually with revenues recognized as services are rendered. At
the inception of a new baiting services contract the system is installed. The Company recognizes
revenue for the installation of the monitoring stations, initial directed liquid termiticide
treatment and rendering of the initial monitoring services. The remaining portion of the annual
fees billed are deferred and recognized as the remaining inspection and monitoring services are
rendered over the annual period. Baiting renewal revenue is deferred and recognized over the annual
period when the inspection and monitoring services are actually rendered. Liquid and drywood
termite application revenues, both initial and renewal, are recognized when the services are
rendered.
Reclassification
Certain reclassifications of amounts previously reported have been made to the accompanying
consolidated financial statements in order to maintain consistency and comparability between
periods presented.
In September 2008, the Company sold Telecom FM Ltd. (Telecom FM) For purposes of comparability, the results of the
operations have been reclassified from continuing operations to discontinued operations for the
three months ended December 31, 2007 presented in the accompanying condensed consolidated
statements of operations. See Note 9 Discontinued Operations.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, Fair Value
Measurements (FASB No. 157). FASB No. 157 provides guidance for measuring the fair value of
assets and liabilities and expands related disclosures. FASB No. 157 defines fair value as the
price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (exit price) in the
principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between
market participants at the measurement date. FASB No. 157 establishes market or observable inputs
as the preferred source of values, followed by assumptions based on hypothetical transactions in
the absence of market inputs. Effective October 1, 2008, the Company adopted FASB No. 157 for all
financial instruments accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis. The adoption of FASB No.
157 did not have a material effect on the Companys financial condition or operating results. FASB
No. 157 established a three level fair value hierarchy to classify the inputs used in measuring
fair value as follows:
Level 1: Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.
Level 2: Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for
identical or similar instruments in
markets that are not active; and model-driven valuations whose inputs are observable or
whose significant value
drivers are observable.
Level 3: Significant inputs to the valuation model are unobservable.
In October 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position No. FAS 157-3, Determining the Fair Value of
a Financial Asset in a Market That Is Not Active (FSP 157-3), which clarifies the application of
FASB No. 157 when the market for a financial asset is inactive.
Specifically, FSP 157-3 clarifies how (1) managements internal assumptions should be considered in
measuring fair value when observable data are not present, (2) observable market information from
an inactive market should be taken into account, and (3) the use of broker quotes or pricing
services should be considered in assessing the relevance of observable and unobservable data to
measure fair value. The guidance in FSP 157-3 is effective immediately.
As of December 31, 2008, the Company did not have any financial liabilities or assets that are
measured at fair value as defined under FASB No. 157.
In February 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position (FSP) FAS 157-2 deferring the effective date
of FASB No. 157 for nonfinancial assets and liabilities to fiscal years beginning after November
15, 2008. FSP 157-2 delays the effective date of FASB No. 157 to fiscal years beginning after
November 15, 2008 for all non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities, except for items that
are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis (at
least annually) and will be adopted by the Company beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2010.
Although the Company will continue to evaluate the application of FSP 157-2, management does not
currently believe adoption will have a material impact on the Companys financial condition or
operating results.
The Company also adopted FASB No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial
Liabilitiesincluding an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115 (FASB No. 159), during the first
quarter of fiscal 2009. FASB No. 159 allows companies to choose to measure eligible financial
instruments and certain other items at fair value that are not required to be measured at fair
value. FASB No. 159 requires that unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value
option has been elected be reported in earnings at each reporting date. The Company adopted FASB
No. 159 but has not elected the fair value option for any eligible financial instruments as of
December 31, 2008.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2008, the FASB issued FSP No. EITF 03-6-1, Determining Whether Instruments Granted in
Share-Based Payment Transactions are Participating Securities. This FSP provides that unvested
share-based payment awards that contain nonforfeitable rights to dividends are participating
securities and shall be included in the computation of earnings per share pursuant to the two class
method. This FSP is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 2008 and interim periods within those years. Upon adoption, a company is required to
retrospectively adjust its earnings per share data to conform to the provisions in this FSP. The
provisions of FSP No. EITF 03-6-1 are effective for the Company retroactively in the first quarter
ended December 31, 2009. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of FSP No. EITF
03-6-1 on the calculation and presentation of earnings per share in its consolidated financial
statements.
In April 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position (FSP) No. FAS 142-3, Determination of the
Useful Life of Intangible Assets. FSP No. FAS 142-3 amends the factors that should be considered in
developing renewal or extension assumptions used to determine
10
the useful life of a recognized intangible asset under FASB No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible
Assets. This FSP is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 31, 2008 (fiscal year ended
September 30, 2010 for the Company), and interim periods within those fiscal years (interim period
December 31, 2009 for the Company). Early adoption is prohibited. The Company is currently
assessing the impact that FSP No. FAS 142-3 will have on its financial position, cash flows, and
results of operations.
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141 (revised 2007) Business Combinations (FASB No.
141(R)). FASB No. 141(R) retains the fundamental requirements of the original pronouncement
requiring that the purchase method be used for all business combinations. FASB No. 141(R) defines
the acquirer as the entity that obtains control of one or more businesses in the business
combination, establishes the acquisition date as the date that the acquirer achieves control and
requires the acquirer to recognize the assets acquired, liabilities assumed and any non-controlling
interest at their fair values as of the acquisition date. FASB No. 141(R) also requires that
acquisition-related costs be recognized separately from the acquisition. FASB No. 141(R) is
effective for the Company for fiscal year ended September 30, 2010. The Company is currently assessing the impact of FASB
No. 141(R) on its consolidated financial position and results of operations.
In December 2007, the FASB issued Statement No. 160, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated
Financial Statements an amendment of ARB No. 51 (FASB No. 160). The objective of FASB No. 160
is to improve the relevance, comparability, and transparency of the financial information that a
reporting entity provides in its consolidated financial statements by establishing accounting and
reporting standards for the noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of
a subsidiary. This Statement applies to all entities that prepare consolidated financial
statements, except not-for-profit organizations. FASB No. 160 amends ARB 51 to establish accounting
and reporting standards for the noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation
of a subsidiary. It also amends certain of ARB 51s consolidation procedures for consistency with
the requirements of FASB No. 141 (R). This Statement is effective for fiscal years, and interim
periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2008 (that is, January 1,
2009, for entities with calendar year-ends). Earlier adoption is prohibited. The effective date of
this Statement is the same as that of the related Statement 141(R). FASB No. 160 will be effective
for the Companys fiscal year ended September 30, 2010. This Statement shall be applied prospectively as of the
beginning of the fiscal year in which this Statement is initially applied, except for the
presentation and disclosure requirements. The presentation and disclosure requirements shall be
applied retrospectively for all periods presented. The Company is currently assessing the impact of
FASB No. 160 on its consolidated financial statements.

6. Note Payable-Related Party
The
Company has a $5,000,000 subordinated note payable, of which
$4,000,000 is payable to a related party, in connection with the
acquisition of Middleton. The related party is Mr. Charles Steinmetz, the former CEO of Middleton
from 1977 through June 2005, who was appointed to serve as CEO of Middleton again effective January
18, 2008 through July 25, 2008. Mr. Steinmetz was the majority owner of Middleton from 1977 until
it was purchased by the Company in June 2005 and has served as a director of the Company since that
time. Interest is paid semi-annually at prime (3.25% as of December 31, 2008). The note payable is
due in full on June 7, 2010. Interest expense related to this note payable amounted to $53,082 and
$108,767 for the three months ended December 31, 2008 and 2007,
respectively, of which $42,466 and $87,014 pertained to Mr. Steinmetz, respectively.
7. Income Taxes
The Company did not have an income tax provision or benefit for the three months ended December 31,
2008 and 2007, respectively, as the Company has $16.3 million of net operating losses carryforwards
which expire in 2027 and which are fully reserved. In addition, the Company does not have any net
operating loss carrybacks. As a result the Company was unable to recognize an income tax benefit
for the three months ended December 31, 2008.
8. Stock Options
At the annual meeting of shareholders held on February 4, 2005, the shareholders approved the
adoption of the Companys 2004 Stock Incentive Plan with an aggregate of 800,000 shares of the
Companys unissued common stock, to replace the Companys 2000 Stock Option Plan, which was
approved by the Companys shareholders at a shareholders meeting held on January 24, 2000. The
800,000 shares authorized under the 2004 Stock Incentive Plan are reserved for issuance to
officers, directors, employees and prospective employees as incentive stock options, non-qualified
stock options, restricted stock awards, other equity awards and performance based stock incentives.

Fair Value
On January 1, 2006, the Company adopted the provisions of FASB No. 123R which requires the Company
to recognize expense related to the fair value of stock-based compensation awards. The Company
elected the modified prospective transition method as permitted by FASB No. 123R, under which
stock-based compensation for the three months ended December 31, 2008 and 2007 is based on grant
date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of FASB No. 123R and compensation
expense for all stock-based compensation awards granted subsequent to January 1, 2006, as well as
the unvested portion of previously granted awards that remained outstanding as of January 1, 2006
based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of FASB No. 123R. In
addition, options granted to certain members of the board of directors as payment for Board
services recorded in accordance with FASB No. 123R and the issuance of restricted stock awards and
stock units are also included in stock-based compensation for the three months ended December 31,
2008 and 2007. The Company recognizes compensation expense for restricted stock awards and
restricted stock units on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the award. The
Company recorded
13
$39,449 and $142,012 of stock-based compensation expense which has been classified as selling,
general and administrative expenses for the three months ended December 31, 2008 and 2007,
respectively.
The fair value of stock-based awards was estimated using the Black-Scholes model, on the date of
grant, with the following weighted-average assumptions:

The Companys computation of the expected volatility for the three months ended December 31, 2008
and 2007 is based primarily upon historical volatility and the expected term of the option. The
Company continues to use the simplified method of determining the expected term provided under SAB
110 as sufficient historical data is not available. The interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury
yield in effect at the time of grant for a period commensurate with the estimated expected life.
As of December 31, 2008, approximately $345,672 of total unrecognized compensation costs related to
non-vested stock options is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.81 years.
9. Discontinued Operations
On September 30, 2008, the Company completed the sale of all the issued and outstanding stock of
Telecom FM, which was a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company comprising the Telephone Communications business segment. The
effective date of the sale was September 1, 2008. The aggregate purchase price paid to the Company
for Telecom FM was $3.6 million, which included the payment of outstanding inter-company debt in
the amount of $1.2 million. The aforementioned $3.6 million payment was received in two payments of
$1.8 million, one payment received on September 30, 2008 and reflected as cash on the September 30,
2008 balance sheet and the other payment of $1.8 million, received on October 1, 2008, was
reflected as prepaid and other current assets on the September 30, 2008 balance sheet.
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three months
ended December 31, 2008 and 2007 have been adjusted to classify Telecom FM, Percepia Inc. and Sunair Communications, Inc. as discontinued
operations. Selected statements of operations data for the Companys discontinued operations is as

12. Net Income (Loss) Per Share
Basic net income (loss) per share is computed using the weighted average number of shares
outstanding during the period. Due to the Companys losses from continuing operations, dilutive
potential common shares in the form of warrants were excluded from the computation of diluted loss
per share, as inclusion would be anti-dilutive for the periods presented.
13. Related Parties
On January 7, 2008, the Company entered into a management services agreement (Management Services
Agreement or the Amended Management Services
Agreement) with RPC Financial Advisors, LLC, (RPC) a related party, which
supersedes and replaces the management services agreement (the Previous Management Services
Agreement) dated February 8, 2005, as amended, between the Company and RPC. Pursuant to the
Amended Management Services Agreement, the Company provided RPC with notice that the Previous
Management Services Agreement would not be renewed and that the Amended Management Services
Agreement would be effective as of February 8, 2008.
The Amended Management Services Agreement is for a three year term, commenced on February 8, 2008
and expires on February 7, 2011. The Company pays RPC a monthly management fee equal to one (1%) of
the monthly gross revenues of the Company, which are payable monthly based on the average monthly
revenues of the preceding quarter. RPC will also receive a transaction fee of up to 2% of the
Aggregate Consideration received by the Company in a Transaction (as such capitalized terms are
defined in the Management Services Agreement). Pursuant to the Management Services Agreement, RPC
provides the Company with services similar to those provided in the Previous Management Services
Agreement. After the initial term of three years, the Management Services Agreement will
automatically renew for successive one year terms, unless either RPC or the Company terminates the
15
agreement upon 30 days notice. The management fees paid by the Company to RPC, for the three months
ended December 31, 2008 and 2007 totaled $150,104 and $390,625, respectively.
The Company issued a note payable to a related party in connection with the acquisition of
Middleton, as discussed in Note 6-Note
Payable-Related Party.

Company Overview
Sunair Services Corporation (the Company we or us) is a Florida corporation organized in
1956. We changed our corporate name from Sunair Electronics, Inc. to Sunair Services Corporation in
November of 2005. Previously, we operated through two business segments: Telephone Communications
and High Frequency Radio. In June 2005 with the acquisition of Middleton Pest Control, Inc.
(Middleton) we embarked on a new strategy to become a leading regional provider of lawn and pest
control services focusing mainly on residential customers.
We have
completed the execution of our strategy to divest our legacy businesses
(Telephone Communications and High Frequency Radio) and will continue to focus on growing our core business,
Lawn and Pest Control Services.
The acquisitions and divestitures that have taken place since September 30, 2007 are as follows:
Acquisitions:
|
|
|
In October 2007 we acquired substantially all the assets of Marshall Pest Control of SW
FL, Inc. (Marshall). |
Dispositions:

|
|
In September 2008 we sold all the issued and outstanding stock of Telecom FM Limited,
(Telecom FM), a wholly-owned subsidiary operating in our Telephone Communications
business segment. |

Revenue
Revenue from lawn and pest control services is comprised of lawn, pest control and termite
services. Revenue decreased by $0.8 million or 5.6% for the three months ended December 31, 2008 as
compared to the three months ended December 31, 2007. The decrease was the result of a decline in
new sales. All service offerings experienced a reduction in new sales, which was expected
considering the overall economic downturn experienced in the latter part of our fiscal 2008 and
expected to continue into our fiscal 2009.
Cost of Sales
Cost of sales decreased by $0.2 million or 3.6 % to $5.1 million or 39.7% of revenue for the
three months ended December 31, 2008 as compared to $5.2 million or 38.9% of revenue for the three
months ended December 31, 2007 due to the following factors:
|
|
|
Payroll costs decreased $0.1 million for the three months ended December 31, 2008 as
compared to the three months ended December 31, 2007, primarily due to a reduction in new
sales. |
|
|
|
|
Vehicle costs decreased $0.1 million for the three months ended December 31, 2008 as
compared to the three months ended December 31, 2007, primarily
due to lower fuel costs and reduced fleet size. |
Gross Profit
The gross profit of the lawn and pest control services decreased by $0.6 million or 6.9% to
$7.7 million or 60.3% of revenue for three months ended December 31, 2008 as compared to $8.2
million or 61.1% of revenue for the three months ended December 31, 2007.

revenue for the three months ended December 31, 2008 as compared to $10.2 million or 75.3% of
revenue for the three months ended December 31, 2007. Due to the reduction in new sales and the

opportunities to further reduce our operating expenses.
18

advertising. |
|
|
|
|
Sales payroll costs decreased by $0.4 million for the three months ended December 31,
2008 as compared to the same time period in 2007. The reduction in sales payroll costs was
due to a decrease in sales commissions paid as a result of a decrease
in new sales activity. |
General and administrative expenses decreased by $1.3 million or 16.7% to $6.2 million or
49.0% of revenue for three months ended December 31, 2008 as compared to $7.5 million or 55.5% of

months ended December 31, 2008 as compared to the three months ended December 31, 2007.
Management fees decreased by $0.2 million as a result of the Amended Management Services
Agreement between the Company and RPC (a related party) that commenced on February 8, 2008, resulting in lower management fees. Legal
and professional fees decreased by $0.1 million. Stock-based compensation decreased by $0.1
million due to a number of grants that were forfeited during the three months ended December
31, 2008 coupled with a reduction in the average market price from $2.47 for the three
months ended December 31, 2007 to $1.84 for the three months ended December 31, 2008. |

Other expenses decreased by $0.1 million or 24.6% for the three months ended December 31, 2008
as compared to the three months ended December 31, 2007 primarily related to a decrease in interest
expense. Lower interest rates on the revolving line of credit and note payable related party
resulted in lower interest expense for the three months ended December 31, 2008 as compared to the
three months ended December 31, 2007. The interest rate on the revolving line of credit was 5.44%
at December 31, 2008 compared to 7.10% at December 31, 2007.

The income tax provision from continuing operations for the three months ended December 31,
2008 and 2007 was zero. The Company did not recognize an income tax benefit for the three months
ended December 31, 2008 as the Company has $16.3 million of net operating losses carryforwards
which expire in 2027 and which are fully reserved. In addition, the Company does not have any
operating loss carrybacks. As a result the Company was unable to recognize an income tax benefit
for the quarter ended December 31, 2008 and 2007.

Our significant divestitures have been recorded as discontinued operations:
|
|
|
On September 30, 2008 we completed the sale of all the issued and outstanding stock of
Telecom FM, a wholly owned subsidiary operating in our Telephone Communications business
segment. The effective date of the sale was September 1, 2008. The aggregate purchase
price paid to the Company for Telecom FM was $3.6 million, which included the payment of

|
For the three months ended December 31, 2008 there were some miscellaneous charges
related to our discontinued operations which we continue to classify as discontinued
operations in accordance with FASB No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of
Long-Lived Assets. |
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Generally our working capital needs are funded from operations and advances under our revolving
line of credit. In the lawn care and pest control business customers are billed when service is
rendered and payment is usually received in less than thirty (30) days.
As of December 31, 2008, our liquidity and capital resources included cash and equivalents of $1.7
million, a working capital deficit of $(7.4) million and $0.5 million was available under our
revolving line of credit. As of September 30, 2008, our liquidity and capital resources included
cash and equivalents of $3.0 million, a working capital deficit of $(5.7) million and $1.4 million

operating activities were a decrease in accounts receivable of $0.6 million, a decrease in
inventories of $0.4 million, and a decrease in prepaid and other assets of $2.2 million. During
the three months ended December 31, 2008, we collected the $1.8 million receivable related to the
sale of Telecom FM which took place on September 30, 2008 and which was included in prepaid and
other current assets at September 30, 2008. The primary uses of cash for the three months ended
December 31, 2008 were an increase in other assets of $0.2 million, a decrease in accounts payable
and accrued expenses of $0.7 million, a decrease in unearned revenue of $0.2 million
and a

primary sources of cash were reductions in prepaid expenses of $0.5 million and inventory of $0.2
million.

31, 2007 were an increase in accounts
receivable of $1.9 million, reduction in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $0.8 million,
reduction in customer deposits or $0.3 million, reduction in unearned revenue of $0.2 million and
funding of cash loss of $0.7 million.
Net cash used in investing activities was $0.1 million during the three months ended December 31,
2008 as compared to cash used in investing activities of $1.2 million for the three months ended

business acquisitions and $0.2 million used for capital expenditures.

as compared to net cash provided by financing activities of $3.1 million for the three months ended
December 31, 2007. During the three months ended December 31, 2008 the primary use of cash from
financing activities were the repayment of the revolving line of credit of $2.8 million and the
repayment of notes payable and capital leases of $0.3 million. For the three months ended December
31, 2007, the primary source of cash from financing activities was proceeds from revolving line of
credit of $3.1 million.
Cash flows from discontinued operations for the three months ended December 31, 2008 and 2007 are
minimal and are included in the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows within operating,
investing and financing activities.
Our uses of cash for fiscal 2009 will be principally for working capital needs, capital
expenditures and debt service. We are not anticipating significant acquisition activity in fiscal
2009. We believe that we can fund our planned business activities from a combination of cash flows
from operations and funds available under our revolving line of credit which we amended on January
28, 2009.
