NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
---------------------
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Guardian
International, Inc. ("the Company") have been prepared pursuant to the
rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. In the
opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial
statements contain adjustments (consisting only of normal and recurring
adjustments) necessary to present fairly the Company's financial position
and the results of operations for the periods presented and the disclosures
herein are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.
Operating results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the
results that can be expected for a full year. These interim financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited
consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended
December 31, 1999, included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB.
Revenue Recognition
-------------------
Installation Revenue. In 1998, as a result of the acquisition of Mutual
Central Alarm Services, Inc. ("Mutual"), the Company adopted a new
accounting policy related to installation activity due to the nature of the
high-end commercial installations performed by Mutual. The Company defers
the excess of installation revenue over estimated selling costs and
amortizes such difference over the initial term of the non-cancelable
customer monitoring/service contract (generally over five years). Costs
attributed to providing the installations, which include direct labor,
direct materials and direct overhead, are capitalized and amortized over a
five year period. All other costs associated with the installation are
charged to income in the period when the installation occurs.
Monitoring/Service Revenue. Customers are billed for monitoring and
maintenance services primarily on a monthly or quarterly basis in advance
of the period in which such services are provided. Unearned revenues result
from billings in advance of performance of services. Contracts for
monitoring services are generally for an initial non-cancelable term of
three to five years with automatic renewal on an annual basis thereafter,
unless terminated by either party. A substantial number of contracts are on
an automatic renewal basis.
Reclassification
----------------
Certain 1999 amounts in the consolidated financial statements have been
reclassified to conform to the 2000 presentation.
2. PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT, NET
During the six months ended June 30, 2000, the Company expended
approximately $931,000 for the purchase of fixed assets, including
subscriber premises equipment approximating $598,000.

Under the Renewed Credit Facility, borrowings bear interest at floating
rates, either at Prime plus 1 3/4% or, at the Company's election, LIBOR
plus 3 1/2%. At June 30, 2000, the debt was bearing interest at varying
rates.
In June 2000, the Renewed Credit Facility was amended to extend the
expiration date to June 30, 2002 from May 31, 2001, for which the Company
paid a renewal fee of $150,000. Availability under the Renewed Credit
Facility is subject to certain "Borrowing Base" limitations (as defined in
the Renewed Credit Facility). In connection with the June 2000 amendment of
the Renewed Credit Facility, the "Borrowing Base" limitation relating to
earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization ("EBITDA")
was increased to 4.0 times EBITDA from 3.5 times EBITDA. The Renewed Credit
Facility includes customary covenants, including, but not limited to,
restrictions related to the incurrence of other debt, the encumbrance or
sale of the Company's assets and the payment of dividends or making of
other distributions to the Company's shareholders and other financial
performance covenants. The Company believes it was in compliance with all
such covenants as of June 30, 2000. At June 30, 2000, $8.1 million was
available under the Renewed Credit Facility.
7. RECENT PRONOUNCEMENTS
The SEC staff has recently issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101 Revenue
Recognition, which further clarifies existing accounting literature on the
timing and substance of recognizing an organization's revenues. SAB 101 is
required to be adopted by registrants no later than the fourth quarter of
2000. Management believes that based on its understanding of the SEC
staff's current interpretation of SAB 101, that the adoption of the
pronouncement will have an impact on its financial statements and is
currently assessing the dollar amount of such impact.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis
Introductory Note
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS.
In connection with the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1995, the Company is hereby providing cautionary
statements identifying important factors that could cause the Company's actual
results to differ materially from those projected in forward-looking statements
made herein. Any statements that express, or involve discussions as to,
expectations, beliefs, plans, objectives, assumptions or future events or
performance (often, but not always, identified through the use of words or
phrases such as the Company or management "believes," "expects," "anticipates,"
"hopes," words or phrases such as "will result," "are expected to," "will
continue," "is anticipated," "estimated," "projection" and "outlook," and words
of similar import) are not historical facts and may be forward-looking. Such
forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, and, accordingly,
actual results could differ materially from those expressed in the
forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements involve estimates,
assumptions, and uncertainties, and, accordingly, actual results could differ
materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements. Such
uncertainties include, among others, the following: (i) the ability of the
Company to add additional customer accounts to its account base through
acquisitions from third parties, through internal sales efforts and through
strategic alliances; (ii) the level of subscriber attrition; (iii) the
availability of capital to the Company relative to certain larger companies in
the security alarm industry which have significantly greater capital and
resources; (iv) increased false alarm fines and/or the possibility of reduced
public response to alarm signals; (v) changes in local, state and federal
regulations; (vi) availability of qualified personnel; (vii) competitive factors
in the industry, including additional competition from existing competitors or
future entrants to the industry; (viii) social and economic conditions; (ix)
natural disasters; and (x) other risk factors described in the Company's reports
filed with the SEC from time to time.
Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which such
statement is made, and the Company undertakes no obligation to update any
forward-looking statement or statements to reflect events or circumstances after
the date on which such statement is made or to reflect the occurrence of
unanticipated events. New factors emerge from time to time and it is not
possible for management to predict all of such factors, nor can it assess the
impact of each such factor on the business or the extent to which any factor, or
combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those
contained in any forward-looking statements.
Overview
The majority of the Company's revenue is derived from recurring
payments for the monitoring, maintenance and leasing of security and fire
systems, pursuant to contracts with initial terms typically ranging from one to
five years. The remainder of the Company's revenue is derived from the sale and
installation of security and fire systems and the servicing and upgrades of such
installed systems. Monitoring and service revenues are recognized as the service
is provided. On installations for which the Company retains title to the
electronic security systems, the excess of installation revenue over estimated
selling costs is amortized over the initial term of the related
service/monitoring contract (generally five years). All other installation
revenues are recognized in the period in which installation occurs. All direct
installation costs, which include materials, labor and installation overhead are
capitalized and amortized over a five year period. When the Company maintains
ownership of the equipment, the costs of such equipment are capitalized to
property and equipment and amortized over seven years.
8
<PAGE>
The Company has never had any net income and has a history of
consistent and sometimes significant net losses. The Company has two core
strategies: (1) generating monitoring contracts through its own sales and
installation efforts, and (2) acquiring alarm monitoring contracts. The Company
is exploring a third core strategy of direct investments in companies offering
related and unrelated technology and services. The first core strategy requires
a cost infrastructure that results in lower operating margins than are
achievable by companies that only acquire and service alarm monitoring
contracts. In order to pursue the second core strategy of acquiring alarm
monitoring contracts, the Company has chosen to issue yield-bearing instruments
(such as senior debt or preferred stock). The Company's present amortization
policy for those acquired contracts results in significant amortization costs.
The issuance of yield-bearing instruments results in related interest and
dividend expense. The Company believes that these strategies, which emphasize
creating long-term value over short-term net income, will result in the
Company's recording of net losses until such time as (i) the Company's cash flow
from its increased customer base allows it to reduce significantly its
indebtedness and related interest costs; and (ii) the Company's amortization
expense, through the passage of time and recognition of account losses, is
reduced.
Alarm monitoring revenues generate favorable gross margins.
Historically, installation and service activity generated unfavorable gross
margins because such activity was necessary for the generation and retention of
residential and mid-market commercial alarm monitoring customers. With the
February 1998 acquisition of Mutual Central Alarm Services, Inc. ("Mutual"), a
New York City-based provider to high-end commercial customers, however,
approximately 40% of the Company's installation activity now generates favorable
gross margins because competition in the high-end commercial market is based
less on price and more on the ability of competitors to design, deliver and
maintain sophisticated security systems.
The Company's objective is to provide residential and commercial
security services to an increasing number of subscribers. The Company's growth
strategy is to enhance its position in the security alarm monitoring industry in
Florida and in the Metropolitan New York City area by increasing the number and
density of subscribers for whom it provides services. The Company is pursuing
this strategy through a growth plan involving incorporating acquisitions of
portfolios of subscriber accounts in existing and contiguous markets and growth
in the Company's existing markets through referrals and traditional local
marketing. The Company believes that increasing the number and density of its
subscribers will help it to achieve economies of scale and enhance its results
of operations. The Company also regularly reviews opportunities for expanding
its operations into other large metropolitan markets.
Key Operating Measures
The Company believes that EBITDA, MRR, and MRR attrition are key
measurements of performance in the security monitoring industry.
EBITDA. Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization
("EBITDA") does not represent cash flow from operations as defined by generally
accepted accounting principles, should not be construed as an alternative to
operating income and is indicative neither of operating performance nor of cash
flows available to fund the cash needs of the Company. Items excluded from
EBITDA are significant components in understanding and assessing the financial
performance of the Company. The Company believes presentation of EBITDA enhances
an understanding of financial condition, results of operations and cash flows
because EBITDA is used by the Company to satisfy its debt service obligations
and its capital expenditure and other operational needs, as well as to provide
funds for growth. In addition, EBITDA is used by senior lenders and the
investment community to determine the current borrowing capacity and to estimate
the long-term value of companies with recurring cash flows

from operations. The Company's computation of EBITDA may not be comparable to
other similarly titled measures of other companies. The following table provides
a calculation of EBITDA for the three and six months ended June 30, 2000 and
1999:

</TABLE>
Monthly Recurring Revenue ("MRR"). MRR is revenue that the Company is
entitled to receive for a month of service under monitoring and service
contracts in effect at the end of the period. Because the Company has grown
rapidly, often by acquiring security alarm companies and portfolios of customer
accounts which are included in revenues only from the date of acquisition, the
Company's revenues are not proportional to the level of its investment of
capital reported to the end of the period upon which a return must be earned.
Management believes MRR enhances an investor's understanding of the Company's
financial condition, results of operations and cash flows because it provides a
measure of the Company's revenue that can be used to derive estimated annual
revenues acquired in acquisitions for a full year of operations. As a result,
MRR can be compared to the level of investment in the statement of financial
condition at the end of the period. By comparing MRR to cash, debt and equity
balances at the end of a period, an investor can assess the Company's investment
track record. Further, management believes an investor's consideration of MRR
relative to the Company's customer base helps identify trends in MRR per
customer. MRR does not measure profitability or performance, and does not
include any allowance for future losses of customers or allowance for doubtful
accounts. The Company does not have sufficient information as to the losses of
acquired customers' accounts to predict with absolute certainty the amount of
acquired MRR that will be realized in future periods or the impact of the loss
of acquired accounts on our overall rate of customer loss. Our computation of
MRR may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies
and MRR should not be viewed by investors as an alternative to actual monthly
revenue as determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles. MRR at June 30, 2000 and 1999 was approximately $1,080,000 and
$961,000, respectively.
MRR Attrition. The Company experiences customer cancellations, i.e.,
attrition, of monitoring and related services as a result of subscriber
relocation, the cancellation of acquired accounts during the process of
integrating such accounts into the Company's operations, unfavorable economic
conditions and other reasons. This attrition is offset to a certain extent by
revenues from the sale of additional services to existing subscribers, the
reconnection of premises previously occupied by subscribers, the conversion of
accounts previously monitored by other alarm companies and guarantees provided
by the sellers of such accounts. The Company defines attrition numerically for a
particular period as a quotient, the numerator of which is equal to the
difference between gross MRR lost as the result of canceled subscriber accounts
and MRR lost that was replaced pursuant to guarantees from sellers of accounts
purchased by the Company, and the denominator of which is the expected month-end
MRR calculated at the end of such period. Net MRR attrition of the Company's
customers during the twelve months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999 was less than
10%, on an annualized basis.

</TABLE>
Six months Ended June 30, 2000 Compared to Six months Ended June 30, 1999
Revenue. Total revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2000
increased 12% to approximately $9.9 million from approximately $8.9 million
during the corresponding period in the prior year. Monitoring revenues for the
six months ended June 30, 2000 increased to approximately $6.3 million, or 12%,
from approximately $5.6 million during the corresponding period of the prior
year. Installation and service revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2000
increased by 12% to approximately $3.6 million, compared to approximately $3.2
million during the corresponding period of the prior year. Total retail
subscribers approximated 26,400 at June 30, 2000, compared to 23,400 at June 30,
1999, a net increase of 13%. The increase in monitoring revenues and number of
subscribers in the first half of 2000 from the first half of 1999 is
attributable to the Company's installation activity and to the purchase of
accounts in the latter part of 1999. The increase in installation and service
revenues in the first six months of 2000 compared to the prior year's period is
a result of the Company's increased efforts in internal installation activity.
Operating Expenses. Total operating expenses, excluding depreciation
and amortization, for the six months ended June 30, 2000 increased 11% to
approximately $4.0 million, compared to approximately $3.5 million during the
corresponding period in the prior year. Monitoring expenses decreased 3% to
approximately $1.0 million compared to the corresponding period in the prior
year. As a percentage of monitoring revenues during the six months ended June
30, 2000, monitoring expenses were 16%, compared to 18% during the corresponding
period in the prior year. The decrease in monitoring costs was a result of cost
efficiencies which included the transfer of outside monitored
11
<PAGE>
accounts to the Company's monitoring facilities. Installation and service costs
during the six months ended June 30, 2000 increased by 17% to approximately $3.0
million, compared to approximately $2.5 million during the corresponding period
in the prior year. Installation and service costs were 82% of related revenues
during the six months ended June 30, 2000, compared to 78% during the
corresponding period in the prior year, because the Company derived a larger
percentage of sales from lower revenue / higher cost sales to homeowners and
builders in the six months ended June 30, 2000 compared to the six months ended
June 30, 1999.
Gross Profit. Total gross profit, defined as total revenues less
monitoring and installation and service costs, increased by 12% to approximately
$6.0 million during the six months ended June 30, 2000, compared to
approximately $5.3 million during the corresponding period in the prior year.
Gross profit from monitoring revenues increased by 15% to approximately $5.3
million during the six months ended June 30, 2000, compared to approximately
$4.6 million during the corresponding period in the prior year. The increase in
gross profit from monitoring revenues is primarily attributable to the Company's
1999 acquisitions of monitored accounts for which the incremental costs to
monitor are lower than the Company's average cost in 1999, as well as more
efficient operations. Gross profit from installation and service activities
decreased to approximately $670,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2000,
from approximately $725,000 during the corresponding period in the prior year,
partly due to the costs associated with the increased efforts in the Company's
internal installations operations.
Selling, General and Administrative. Selling, general and
administrative costs ("SG&A") increased by 3% to approximately $3.7 million
during the six months ended June 30, 2000, compared to approximately $3.6
million during the corresponding period in the prior year.
Amortization of Customer Contracts. Amortization of customer contracts
increased approximately 2%, to approximately $2.5 million during the six months
ended June 30, 2000, compared to $2.4 million the corresponding period in the
prior year. This steady amortization expense can be mostly attributed to the
fact that account portfolio purchases have been in proportion to account
write-offs. Costs of acquired contracts are amortized over 10 years, unless a
contract is canceled and not replaced by the corresponding independent alarm
company, in which case the remaining unamortized balance is written off as a
charge to amortization expense.
Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization increased
by 46% to approximately $542,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2000,
compared to approximately $372,000 during the corresponding period in the prior
year. Such costs include depreciation of property and equipment (the gross
balance of which increased to approximately $6.3 million at June 30, 2000 from
approximately $4.1 million at June 30, 1999) and the amortization of certain
other intangible assets.
Interest Expense and Other. Interest expense and other increased 16% to
approximately $598,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2000, compared to
approximately $516,000 during the corresponding period in the prior year. The
increase in interest expense resulted from increased borrowings under the
Renewed Credit Facility. Total borrowings under the Renewed Credit Facility
increased to approximately $10.5 million at June 30, 2000 from approximately
$6.8 million at June 30, 1999.
Net Loss. Net loss applicable to common stock for the six months ended
June 30, 2000 was approximately $(2.2) million, or $(0.25) per share, compared
to a net loss of approximately $(2.4) million, or $(0.26) per share, during the
corresponding period of the prior year.

Three months Ended June 30, 2000 Compared to Three months Ended June 30, 1999
Revenue. Total revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2000
increased 10% to approximately $5.0 million from approximately $4.5 million
during the corresponding period in the prior year. Monitoring revenues for the
three months ended June 30, 2000 increased to approximately $3.2 million, or
11%, from approximately $2.9 million during the corresponding period of the
prior year. Installation and service revenues for the three months ended
June 30, 2000 increased by 8% to approximately $1.8 million, compared to
approximately $1.7 million during the corresponding period of the prior year.
Total retail subscribers approximated 26,400 at June 30, 2000, compared to
23,400 at June 30, 1999, a net increase of 13%. The increase in monitoring
revenues and number of subscribers in the second quarter of 2000 from the second
quarter of 1999 is attributable to the Company's installation activity and to
the purchase of accounts in the latter part of 1999. The increase in
installation and service revenues in the second quarter of 2000 compared to the
prior year's period is a result of the Company's increased efforts in internal
installation activity.
Operating Expenses. Total operating expenses, excluding depreciation
and amortization, for the three months ended June 30, 2000 increased 9% to
approximately $2.0 million, compared to approximately $1.8 million during the
corresponding period in the prior year. Monitoring expenses decreased 2% to
approximately $488,000 compared to the corresponding period in the prior year.
As a percentage of monitoring revenues during the three months ended
June 30, 2000, monitoring expenses were 15%, compared to 17% during the
corresponding period in the prior year. The decrease in monitoring costs was a
result of cost efficiencies which included the transfer of outside monitored
accounts to the Company's monitoring facilities. Installation and service costs
during the three months ended June 30, 2000 increased by 14% to approximately
$1.5 million, compared to approximately $1.3 million during the corresponding
period in the prior year. Installation and service costs were 82% of related
revenues during the three months ended June 30, 2000, compared to 78% during the
corresponding period in the prior year, because the Company derived a larger
percentage of sales from lower revenue / higher cost sales to homeowners and
builders in the three months ended June 30, 2000 compared to the three months
ended June 30, 1999.
Gross Profit. Total gross profit, defined as total revenues less
monitoring and installation and service costs, increased by 10% to approximately
$3.0 million during the three months ended June 30, 2000, compared to
approximately $2.7 million during the corresponding period in the prior year.
Gross profit from monitoring revenues increased by 14% to approximately $2.7
million during the three months ended June 30, 2000, compared to approximately
$2.4 million during the corresponding period in the prior year. The increase in
gross profit from monitoring revenues is primarily attributable to the Company's
1999 acquisitions of monitored accounts for which the incremental costs to
monitor are lower than the Company's average cost in 1999, as well as more
efficient operations. Gross profit from installation and service activities
decreased to approximately $330,000 during the three months ended June 30, 2000,
from approximately $375,000 during the corresponding period in the prior year,
partly due to the costs associated with the increased efforts in the Company's
internal installations operations.
Selling, General and Administrative. Selling, general and
administrative costs ("SG&A") remained steady at approximately $1.9 million
during the three months ended June 30, 2000.
Amortization of Customer Contracts. Amortization of customer contracts
remained steady at approximately $1.2 million during the three months ended June
30, 2000, compared to the corresponding period in the prior year. This steady
amortization expense can be mostly attributed to the fact that account portfolio
purchases have been in proportion to account write-offs. Costs of acquired
contracts are amortized over 10 years, unless a contract is canceled and not
replaced by the corresponding independent alarm company, in which case the
remaining unamortized balance is written off as a charge to amortization
expense.

Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization increased
by 72% to approximately $312,000 during the three months ended June 30, 2000,
compared to approximately $181,000 during the corresponding period in the prior
year. Such costs include depreciation of property and equipment (the gross
balance of which increased to approximately $6.3 million at June 30, 2000 from
approximately $4.1 million at June 30, 1999) and the amortization of certain
other intangible assets.
Interest Expense and Other. Interest expense and other increased 16% to
approximately $302,000 during the three months ended June 30, 2000, compared to
approximately $261,000 during the corresponding period in the prior year. The
increase in interest expense resulted from increased borrowings under the
Renewed Credit Facility. Total borrowings under the Renewed Credit Facility
increased to approximately $10.5 million at June 30, 2000 from approximately
$6.8 million at June 30, 1999.
Net Loss. Net loss applicable to common stock for the three months
ended June 30, 2000 was approximately $(1.1) million, or $(0.13) per share,
compared to a net loss of approximately $(1.2) million, or $(0.13) per share,
during the corresponding period of the prior year.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of June 30, 2000, the Company believes it will maintain the ability
to generate sufficient cash to fund future operations of the business.
Generally, cash flow will be generated from a combination of (1) the Company's
existing $20.0 million Renewed Credit Facility with Heller, subject to
compliance with the provisions of the debt covenants in the Renewed Credit
Facility, and (2) recurring revenue from its security monitoring customer base,
which generated $2.3 million of EBITDA in the six months ended June 30, 2000. At
June 30, 2000, there was $8.1 million of availability under the Renewed Credit
Facility. Cash flow from operating activities was $2.7 million for the six
months ended June 30, 2000.
Capital Resources. In June, 2000, the expiration date of the Renewed
Credit Facility was extended to June 30, 2002 from May 2001. Availability under
the Renewed Credit Facility is subject to certain "Borrowing Base" limitations
(as defined in the Renewed Credit Facility). In connection with the June 2000
amendment of the Renewed Credit Facility, the "Borrowing Base" limitation
relating to EBITDA was increased to 4.0 times EBITDA from 3.5 times EBITDA. The
Renewed Credit Facility includes customary covenants, including, but not limited
to, restrictions related to the incurrence of other debt, the encumbrance or
sale of the Company's assets, and the payment of dividends or making of other
distributions to the Company's shareholders and other financial performance
covenants. The Company believes it was in compliance with all such covenants as
of June 30, 2000.
The Renewed Credit Facility is used primarily for acquisitions of
subscriber accounts and to finance the Company's internal account creation
efforts. The Company's continued plan of growth through acquisitions of
subscriber accounts is contingent upon its ability to borrow under the Renewed
Credit Facility.
Liquidity. Net cash provided by operating activities during the six
months ended June 30, 2000 was approximately $2.7 million. The Company incurred
a net loss of approximately $1.3 million during such period; however, included
in such loss was non-cash depreciation and amortization expense, amortization of
customer contracts expense, amortization of capitalized installation costs and
amortization of deferred financing costs totaling approximately $3.7 million and
a bad debt provision of approximately $290,000. Other operating cash flows
included cash inflows of approximately $421,000 related to decreases in accounts
receivable and cash outflows of approximately $334,000 related to other assets
and net decreases in liabilities.
14
<PAGE>
Net cash used in investing activities was approximately $2.0 million
during the six months ended June 30, 2000 and was comprised of approximately
$1.0 million used in the purchase and placement of customer accounts and the
purchases of fixed assets of approximately $931,000 which includes equipment
under lease at customer premises of approximately $598,000.
Net cash used in financing activities was approximately $902,000 during
the six months ended June 30, 2000, consisting primarily of repayments to Heller
and other debt obligations of approximately $1.9 million, payment of cash
dividends on preferred stock of approximately $574,000, payment for purchase and
retirement of treasury shares of approximately $206,000, and costs related to
the issuance of equity securities of approximately $7,000. These payments were
offset by proceeds under borrowings from Heller of approximately $1.8 million.
The Company's cash balance was $429,188 as of June 30, 2000.
Total shareholders' equity was $2,359,403 at June 30, 2000, decreasing
by a net amount of $1,815,586 during the six months ended June 30, 2000. The net
decrease resulted from the payment and accrual of dividends on the Company's
preferred stock of approximately $900,000 and the net loss of approximately $1.3
million.
Affiliation with Western Resources, Inc. As discussed in the Company's
1999 Form 10-KSB, in Part I, Item I "1999 Developments", Western Resources, Inc.
indirectly holds a significant investment in the Company.
The Company does not currently have any significant commitments for
capital outlays.
Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to
concentrations of credit risk consist principally of trade receivables from a
large number of customers, including both residential and commercial customers.
The Company extends credit to its customers in the normal course of business,
performs periodic credit evaluations and maintains allowances for potential
credit losses.
