This prospectus relates to the resale of up to 17,867,515 shares of our common stock, from time to time, by some of our shareholders who purchased shares of our common stock in private placements that we completed on May 30, 2005 and February 12, 2006, shares issued for the partial conversion of a note, shares issued to our underwriter as well as the shares of our founding shareholders.
These shareholders are referred to throughout this prospectus as the "selling shareholders." The selling shareholders may sell the common stock covered by this prospectus, from time to time, directly or through agents or dealers, on terms to be determined at the time of sale. Because there is currently no market for our common stock, the prices at which the selling shareholder will sell their shares is a fixed price of $0.83 until the securities are quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board and thereafter at prevailing market prices or privately negotiated prices.
The selling shareholders will receive all of the proceeds from any sales of our common stock made pursuant to this prospectus. Accordingly, we will receive no proceeds from sales of our common stock made pursuant to this prospectus. We are paying the expenses of registering the shares covered by this prospectus and preparing this prospectus, but the selling shareholders will pay any selling expenses incurred by them in connection with the shares of common stock covered by this prospectus.

PROSPECTUS SUMMARY
The following summary highlights important information about the offering of common stock covered by this prospectus, but it may not contain all of the information that is important to you. You should read this summary only in conjunction with the more detailed information regarding this offering, our company, our common stock and our financial statements appearing elsewhere in this prospectus, including the section entitled "Risk Factors" beginning on page 5 of this prospectus.
Our Company
We were organized to apply information technology and electronic documentation management to the livestock industry by addressing the growing importance to the industry (producers, processors, and customers) of detailed information regarding identification, traceability, and verification of marketing claims such as: source of origin information, genetic background, animal treatment, animal health history, animal age, animal movements, nutrition, and other credence attributes (those claims made that can not be confirmed by visual inspection once the product reaches the meat case and is marketed to the consumer). To address this demand, we developed a range of proprietary computer software, consulting methodologies, auditing processes, and other services to allow the livestock industry to record, manage, report, and audit this information .
General
Our principal executive offices are located at 601 4th Street, Platte City, Missouri 64079. Our telephone number is (816) 858-4796. Our website address is www.imiglobal.com.
Shares Being Registered
The Private Placements
We completed two private placements of securities on May 30, 2005 and February 12, 2006, respectively in which we sold shares of our common stock. In the May 30, 2005 Private Placement, we sold 928,796 shares of our common stock at $0.91 per share and the founding shareholders and two members of the Company's Board of Directors directly sold 442,860 shares. In the February 12, 2006 Private Placement, we sold 1,585,400 shares of our common stock at $1.25 per share. Simultaneously, the Company purchased 5,500,000 shares, 4,800,000 from the founding shareholders at $0.075 per share and 800,000 from two members of the Board of Directors for $0.75 per share.
We offered and sold the shares in reliance on Section 4(2) of the Securities Act. In connection with the sale, the selling shareholders represented to us that they were "accredited investors" within the meaning of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act.

RISK FACTORS
You should carefully consider the risks described below before purchasing our common stock. The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only ones we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also impair our business or cause the value of our common stock to drop. If any of the following risks actually occur, our business could be adversely affected. In those cases, the trading price of our common stock could decline, and you may lose the value of your investment in our securities.
We have had a history of operating losses, and there is no assurance that we will achieve profitability in the future.
We have a history of operating losses. For our calendar year ended December 31, 2005, we experienced a net loss from continuing operations of $1,027,972 and we were unprofitable during the first quarter of 2006 with a net loss of $401,382. It is uncertain if our future prospects will result in profitable operations and, if we experience future losses, the value of an investment in our common stock could decline significantly.
Market Acceptance of our recently introduced products is uncertain.
Although marketing research indicates that market acceptance of our recently introduced products is likely, market adoption is not certain. The Company can offer investors no assurances that its products will generate sufficient revenues to support a profitable business. If sales are inadequate, revenues may not be sufficient to sustain our business, which may result in cessation of operations.
A significant portion of our projected near-term revenue growth is contingent upon strong sales of USVerified Source and Age Verification System
We are currently benefiting from a slow but growing movement among US beef producers to source verify beef products. The emerging trend is fueled in part by anticipation of the reopening of US beef export trade with Japan and other countries. The Company, however, can offer investors no assurances that trade barriers to US beef exports, especially with respect to Japan, will be lifted nor can the Company estimate the timing of the resumption of US beef export trade with certain countries should it occur. In the event that trade restrictions for meat exports to certain countries are not lifted, we may not be able to achieve revenue growth as planned, thus jeopardizing our viability as a profitable entity.
Unless the Japanese market for US Beef reopens, there is a limited U.S. market for our products.
As a result of mad cow disease in at least one animal in the U.S., the Japanese beef market was closed to U.S. cattle and has been so far a protracted period except for a few weeks in December 2005 and January 2006. Because the Japanese market is the largest beef export market for U.S. producers and because the Japanese market requires verification, it is important to the sale of our products. Because the U.S. market does not mandate verification, there is limited incentive for beef producers to purchase our products. Therefore, unless the Japanese market for U.S. beef reopens, our sales will be significantly impaired and we will be unable to operate at a profit.
In the event that market demand for beef products declines, our customers may not be able to generate sufficient revenues to justify purchase of our verification solutions and consulting services
Public attitudes towards beef may be influenced by claims that beef products are unsafe for consumption or pose unknown health risks. Decreased demand for beef products could have a material adverse affect on the operating results and financial condition of our existing or prospective customers. If operating results are impaired, the resources that our customers can devote to building information systems for tracking cattle and herd management would be reduced which in turn would limit purchases of our verification solutions and consulting services, our ability to generate revenue is subject to risks and uncertainties relating to the financial condition of its customers.
Our future success in part depends upon our ability to establish strategic partnerships and joint ventures for the marketing of its products and services
We can offer investors no assurance that we can successfully establish and maintain long-term strategic relationships with key marketing partners under conditions that are favorable to the Company. Furthermore, collaborative arrangements with third parties may subject us to a number of risks. Agreements with collaborative partners typically allow partners significant discretion in electing whether or not to pursue any of the planned activities. The Company cannot control the amount and timing of resources that its collaborative partners may devote to joint activities. Our partners may not perform their obligations as expected. Business combinations or significant changes in a collaborative partner's business strategy may adversely affect a partner's willingness or ability to perform its obligations under the arrangement.
Moreover, we could become involved in disputes with our partners, which could lead to delays or termination of the collaborations and litigation or arbitration. If collaborative arrangements fail to meet expectations, our chances of successfully commercializing our products may be adversely impacted.
Our future success depends upon our ability to obtain and enforce patents; prevent others from infringing on our patents, trademarks and other intellectual property rights; and operate without infringing upon the patents and proprietary rights of others.
We will be able to protect our intellectual property from unauthorized use of third parties only to the extent that it is covered by valid and enforceable patents and trademarks. Patent protection generally involves complex legal and factual issues and, therefore, the enforceability of patent rights cannot be predicted with certainty. Moreover, the laws of some foreign countries do not protect proprietary rights to the same extent as the laws of the United States. In the event that patents owned by us do not provide adequate protection, we may not able to prevent competitors from offering substantially similar products and services. Failure to protect our proprietary rights could seriously impair our competitive position.
In the event that third parties claim that our current or future products or services infringe upon their intellectual property, we may face litigation and be prevented from selling the products and services at issue. Infringement or other claims could be asserted or prosecuted against us in the future, and it is possible that past or future assertion or prosecutions could harm our business. Litigation either in defense of our intellectual property rights or in response to infringement claims made by others may be expensive and involve substantial costs.
We operate in a highly competitive industry characterized by changing technology, frequent introductions of new products and product enhancements, and evolving industry standards.
We compete with many other vendors of software products and services designed for tracking cattle and for herd management. Our competitors range from small start-up companies to large multi-national firms. A number of existing competitors have significantly greater financial, technical and marketing resources. Competition is likely to intensify as current competitors expand their product offerings and as new companies enter the market. Increasing competition may result in reduced margins and the loss of market share. Our competitors may offer broader product lines or technologies that are more commercially attractive and gain greater market acceptance than our current or future products. Additionally, new technology may render our products obsolete.
Our future success depends to a significant degree upon the continued service of key senior management personnel, in particular, John and Leann Saunders.
Both John and Leann Saunders' reputation and prominence in the field provide the Company with a strong competitive advantage. While they are currently bound by employment agreements, we can offer investors no assurance that John and or Leann Saunders will be able to continue to work for us in the event of an unforeseen accident, severe injury or major disease, or on a long-term basis. The loss of key personnel could have a material adverse effect on our business and operating results.
We may be unable to raise additional capital.
We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the common stock covered by this prospectus. If we are unable to generate sufficient revenue for our planned operations, or if we encounter unforeseen costs, we will need to raise additional capital. We can give no assurances that additional capital will be available to us on favorable terms, or at all. Our inability to obtain additional capital, if and when needed, would have a material adverse effect upon our financial condition and our ability to continue to conduct our operations.
We may not be able to recruit and retain the experienced personnel needed to compete in the industry.
We compete with many other companies for experienced personnel. Management can offer investors no assurance that we will be able to continue to be successful in attracting and retaining qualified personnel.
New corporate governance requirements are likely to increase our costs and make it more difficult to attract qualified directors.
We face new corporate governance requirements under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as well as rules adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission. We expect that these laws, rules and regulations will increase our legal and financial compliance costs and make some activities more difficult, time-consuming and costly. We also expect that these new requirements will make it more difficult and more expensive for us to obtain director and officer liability insurance. We may be required to accept reduced coverage or incur significantly higher costs to obtain coverage. These new requirements are also likely to make it more difficult for us to attract and retain qualified individuals to serve as members of our board of directors or committees of the board.
We are not presently subject to the same corporate governance standards as companies listed on registered stock exchanges or NASDAQ.
Registered stock exchanges and NASDAQ have enhanced corporate governance requirements that apply to issuers that list their securities on those markets. Our common stock is quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board, which does not have comparable requirements. For instance, we are not required to have any independent directors or to adopt a code of ethics. In certain circumstances, management may not have the same interests as the shareholders and conflicts of interest may arise. We do not presently have a policy to resolve conflicts of interest. Notwithstanding the exercise of their fiduciary duties as directors and executive officers and any other duties that they may have to us or our other shareholders in general, these persons may have interests different than yours.
Risks Related to Owning Our Common Stock
There is limited liquidity on the OTC Bulletin Board.
We plan to apply for the listing of our shares on the OTC Bulletin Board. When fewer shares of a security are being traded on the OTC Bulletin Board, price volatility may increase and price movement may outpace the ability of the OTC Bulletin Board to deliver accurate quote information. Due to lower trading volumes in our common stock, there may be a lower likelihood of orders for shares of our common stock being executed, and current prices may differ significantly from prices quoted by the OTC Bulletin Board at the time of order entry.
Our common stock is subject to the penny stock rules.
The term "penny stock" generally refers to low-priced, speculative securities of very small companies. Before a broker-dealer can sell a penny stock, Securities and Exchange Commission rules require the broker-dealer to first approve the customer for the transaction and receive from the customer a written agreement for the transaction. The broker-dealer must furnish the customer with a document describing the risks of investing in penny stocks. The broker-dealer must tell the customer the current market quotation, if any, for the penny stock and the compensation the broker-dealer and its broker will receive for the trade. Finally, the broker-dealer must send monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer's account. These requirements make penny stocks more difficult to trade. Since our common stock is subject to the penny stock rules, the market liquidity of our common stock may be adversely affected.
There may be a greater risk of fraud on the OTC Bulletin Board.
OTC Bulletin Board securities are frequently targets for fraud or market manipulation. Dealers may dominate the market and set prices that are not based on competitive forces. Individuals or groups may create fraudulent markets and control the sudden, sharp increase of price and trading volume and the equally sudden collapse of market prices. If this should occur, the value of an investment in our common stock could decline significantly.
You could suffer substantial dilution and our stock price could decline if we issue additional securities in the future or if current holders of our securities choose to sell a large portion of their holdings at the same time.
Our common stock may not continue to be traded on the OTC Bulletin Board.
We cannot provide any assurance that our common stock will continue to trade on the OTC Bulletin Board. Should our common stock cease to trade on the OTC Bulletin Board and fail to qualify for listing on another stock exchange or trading system, our common stock would be listed for trading only on the "Pink Sheets," which generally provide an even less liquid market than the OTC Bulletin Board. In such event, shareholders may find it more difficult to trade our common stock or to obtain accurate, current information concerning market prices for our common stock.
We do not plan to pay dividends on our common stock.
We do not anticipate paying cash dividends to the holders of our common stock in the foreseeable future. Accordingly, investors in our common stock must rely upon subsequent sales after price appreciation as the sole method to realize a gain on an investment in our common stock. There are no assurances that the price of our common stock will ever appreciate in value. Investors seeking cash dividends should not buy our common stock.
It can be difficult to edit or cancel orders on the OTC Bulletin Board, which may impair your ability to sell our common stock at a favorable price.
Orders for OTC Bulletin Board securities may be canceled or edited like orders for other securities. All requests to change or cancel an order must be submitted to, received and processed by the OTC Bulletin Board. Due to the manual order processing involved in handling OTC Bulletin Board trades, order processing and reporting may be delayed. As a result, it may not be possible to edit orders. Consequently, it may not be possible to sell our common stock at a favorable price.
Increased dealer compensation could adversely affect the price of our common stock.
The dealer's spread (the difference between the bid and ask prices) may be large and may result in substantial losses to the seller of shares of our common stock on the OTC Bulletin Board if such stock must be sold immediately. Further, purchasers of our shares of common stock may incur an immediate "paper" loss due to the price spread. Moreover, dealers trading on the OTC Bulletin Board may not have a bid price for shares of our common stock on the OTC Bulletin Board. Due to the foregoing, demand for our shares of common stock on the OTC Bulletin Board may be decreased or eliminated.
SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Except for historical facts, the statements in this prospectus are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are merely our current predictions of future events. These statements are inherently uncertain, and actual events could differ materially from our predictions. Important factors that could cause actual events to vary from our predictions include those discussed under the headings "Risk Factors," "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" and "Business." We assume no obligation to update our forward-looking statements to reflect new information or developments. We urge readers to review carefully the risk factors described in this prospectus and the other documents that we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission. You can read these documents at www.sec.gov.
We do not undertake any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, or to reflect any events or circumstances after the date of this prospectus or the date of any applicable prospectus supplement. Although we believe that our plans, intentions and expectations reflected in or suggested by the forward-looking statements made are reasonable, ultimately we may not achieve such plans, fulfill such intentions or meet such expectations.
Use of Proceeds
We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of our common stock covered by this prospectus. The selling shareholders listed on pages 26 through 28 will receive all of the proceeds covered by this Prospectus.
Market for Common Stock and Related Shareholder Matters
There is presently no market for our common stock. None of our common stock is subject to outstanding options or warrants to purchase our shares, except those granted under the 2005 Stock Option Plan (1,462,500), warrants issued to our placement agent (297,810), options issued in connection with our purchase of Cattlefeeding.com (225,000), options to our founders as part of an arrangement whereby they sold 4,800,000 (pre-split) shares to the company for $0.075 per share (6,000,000), and 2006 options granted to the CFO (1,650,000) for a total of 9,635,310 options and warrants. There are 17,867,515 shares of our common stock outstanding, all of which are restricted securities. The restricted securities as defined under Rule 144 of the Securities Act may only be sold under Rule 144 or otherwise under an effective registration statement or an exemption from registration, if available. Rule 144 generally provides that an affiliate, including directors, officers and control shareholders, who have satisfied a one year holding period for the restricted securities may sell, within any three month period subject to certain manner of resale provisions, an amount of restricted securities which does not exceed the greater of 1% of a company's outstanding common stock. Sales under Rule 144 must also be made without violating the manner-of-sale provisions, notice requirements, and the availability of public information about us. A sale of shares by such security holders, whether under Rule 144 or otherwise, may have a depressing effect upon the price of our common stock in any market that might develop.
Penny stock considerations
Our common stock is expected to trade on the over-the-counter electronic bulletin board or on the Pink Sheets and, therefore, is subject to the requirements of certain rules promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, which require additional disclosure by broker-dealers in connection with any trades involving a stock defined as a "penny stock". A penny stock is generally defined as any non-NASDAQ equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions.
Such rules require the delivery, prior to any penny stock transaction, of a disclosure schedule explaining the penny stock market and the risks associated therewith and impose various sales requirements on broker-dealers who sell penny stocks to persons other than established customers and "accredited investors". An accredited investor is generally defined as an investor with a net worth in excess of $1,000,000, or annual income exceeding $200,000 individually or $300,000 together with a spouse.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATION
We are engaged in the business of livestock tracking and herd management verification solutions and consulting services for the livestock and the meat industry, and we maintain an internet portal dedicated to publishing news and trends in the agricultural industry and marketing products to this industry.
The following discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements, which involve risk and uncertainties. Our actual results may differ significantly from the results, expectations and plans discussed in these forward looking statements.
Overview
We were incorporated in 1998 as a Missouri corporation. In March, 2005, we reincorporated in Delaware, and in March 2006, we changed our domicile from Delaware to Colorado.
Until December 31, 2004 we were structured as a Subchapter S corporation, as that term is defined in the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, with all income or loss passed through to the shareholders. Beginning on January 1, 2005 we converted to a Subchapter C corporation and began to be directly subject to income taxation.
On May 12, 2005, we completed an acquisition of the assets and assumed certain liabilities of Cattlefeeding.com, Inc. which owned and operated the Cattlenetwork.com and the Cattlestore.com websites and published an electronic newsletter. The sales, costs, and expenses resulting from this acquisition have been included in our results of operations since the acquisition date. Therefore, approximately 7 1/2 months of the results of operations of these acquired businesses are included in our financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2005.
As set forth in Description of Business-Industry Background, customer demand for our solutions is, to a large extent supported by the U.S. beef industry's voluntary participation in quality verification programs related to the export of beef to international markets, including Japan, Mexico, South Korea, Canada and Europe. Subsequent to the discovery of the first case of mad cow disease in the U.S. in December, 2003, the governments of these and other countries banned the import of beef from the U.S. Since that time, based on increased confidence resulting from implementation of quality verification programs (such as those offered by us), some of these key export markets have reopened, but the Japan market, which has historically been the largest, has remained closed (with the exception of a brief period during December 2005 to January 2006). The opportunity to participate in export markets presents a strong indicator of potential demand for approved verification processes, which have become essential. However, during the time in which the export markets are closed, demand for solutions to comply with these regulatory requirements is constrained.
Results of Operations
Quarter Ended March 31, 2006 compared to the Quarter Ended March 31, 2005
Note: All shares for the quarters ended March 31, 2006 and 2005 reflect the 3 for 2 forward stock split approved by shareholders on February 14, 2006.
Revenues. Revenues are derived from our sales of our USVerified solutions customized product and service offerings, related hardware products, and advertising and subscriptions related to our internet-based online services. Revenues for the quarter ended March 31, 2006 were $340,460, an increase of 164% over the 2005 amount of $128,848. The primary reason for the increase in sales was the mid-2005 launch of our USVerified offerings. In addition, approximately 31% of the first quarter 2006 sales were attributable to revenues from internet-based online services (Cattlenetwork.com and Cattlestore.com), which were acquired on May 12, 2005 and, therefore were not part of the first quarter 2005 results. Sales of our USVerified solutions represented a substantial proportion [43%] of revenues during the first quarter of 2006 and are anticipated to continue to be so in the future. As set forth in Description of Business-Industry Background, we believe that customer demand for our USVerified solutions is substantially dependent upon the reopening of key export markets, principally Japan.
Cost of Sales and Gross Margin. Cost of sales for the quarter ended March 31, 2006 were $151,507, an increase of 135% over the 2005 amount of $64,596. Gross margin increased to 57% of revenues for the first quarter 2006 compared to 50% for the first quarter 2005. The principal reason for the increase in cost of sales and gross margin relates to sales of USVerified solutions and Cattlenetwork.com advertising revenues. We anticipate that in the future, sales of our USVerified solutions and Cattlenetwork.com revenues will constitute an increasing proportion of overall revenue, which will result in maintaining our overall gross margin percentage.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses for the first quarter ended March 31, 2006 were $586,738, an increase of 82% over the 2005 amount of $321,617. The largest component of this increase was salaries, wages, and benefits, resulting from i) a substantial increase in our headcount associated with the launch of the USVerified offering, ii) addition to the headcount related to acquisition and continued growth of our internet-based online services operations (Cattlenetwork.com and Cattlestore.com), and iii) a $90,842 increase in stock-based compensation resulting from our adoption of FAS123(R), Stock-Based Payments. Based on the stock options granted in the first quarter of 2006, stock-based compensation will be $10,422 per quarter for the remainder of 2006. Our expenses for contracted services and travel and entertainment also increased substantially from 2005 to 2006, primarily as a result of the launch of the USVerified offerings. Our general and administrative expenses have increased due to human resource, professional services, and other costs related to our anticipated filing of a Registration Statement.
Other Income (Expense) Net other expense for the quarter ended March 31, 2006 increased to $3,597 compared to $300 for the quarter ended March 31, 2005. The increase during 2006 was primarily attributable to interest paid on the Cattlefeeding.com Note (which was issued in May 2005), off-set by dereased borrowings under our line of credit, and interest income from cash investments.
Net Income (Loss). As a result of the foregoing, the net loss for the quarter ended March 31, 2006 was $401,382 compared to net loss of $257,665 for the quarter ended March 31, 2005.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
March 31, 2006
At March 31,2006, we had cash and cash equivalents of $540,401 and working capital of $415,439 compared to $684,833 of cash and cash equivalents and working capital of $599,322 at December 31, 2005. At December 31, 2005, we had restricted cash of $471,664, including $421,664 held in escrow for the purchase of treasury stock and a $50,000 certificate of deposit held as collateral pursuant to our line of credit. In the first quarter of 2006, the $421,664 held in escrow was released and the company acquired 8,250,000 shares of its common stock for an aggregate purchase price of $885,000 (See "Note 3-Common Stock" to the condensed financial statements for the quarter ended March 31, 2006).
Net cash used by operating activities during the quarter ended March 31, 2006 was $209,977 compared to $148,155 used by operating activities during the quarter ended March 31, 2005. The net cash used by operations was the principal reason for the overall reduction for the quarter in our cash and cash equivalents balance.
Net cash provided by financing activities during the quarter ended March 31, 2006 was $67,218, compared to $231,721 provided by financing activities during the quarter ended March 31, 2005. As further discussed below, the net cash provided by financing activities was related primarily to the completion of a private placement and the acquisition of treasury stock.
Accounts receivable decreased to $145,630 at March 31, 2006, compared to $241,304 at December 31, 2005. The decrease in accounts receivable during the first quarter of 2006 was primarily attributable to the increased level of USVerified revenues during the last two months of 2005 (which had not yet been collected as of December 31, 2005) substantially resulting from the temporary opening of the Japanese beef export market (see "Description of Business-Industry Background"). The majority of these accounts receivable were collected in the first quarter of 2006.
We had no prepaid expenses as of December 31, 2005. As of March 31, 2006, prepaid expenses totaled $18,045 and related primarily to prepaid insurance.
Accounts payable and accrued expenses were $194,502 at March 31, 2006, compared to $190,030 at December 31, 2005. The balances were relatively flat consistent with the level of business activity for the quarter.
Deferred revenue at December 31, 2005 was $46,556, compared to $19,200 at March 31, 2006. The decrease in deferred revenue was attributable to completion of consulting contracts during the first quarter of 2006.
In January 2005, in connection with the conversion from a Subchapter S Corporation to a Subchapter C Corporation under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, and conversion of outstanding principal and interest under a $75,000 Promissory Note, under which interest was payable at 10% per annum, we issued 16,452,000 shares to our founders and 1,417,050 shares to the holders of the Note. Concurrently, the holders of the Note exercised options to purchase an aggregate of 4,117,950 shares of Common Stock from us for $217,855 cash.
In February 2006, the Company completed the private placement offering initiated in October 2005 and issued an additional 712,500 shares of Common Stock for cash at $0.83 per share, which resulted in proceeds of $549,219 net of issuance costs of $44,531. Concurrently, the Company purchased 1,050,000 shares at $0.50 per share from two members of the Company's Board of Directors and 7,200,000 shares at $0.05 per share from the Company's founders for an aggregate purchase price of $885,000. As additional consideration for the purchase of the foregoing shares from the Company's founders, the Company granted options to purchase an aggregate of 6,000,000 shares of Common Stock to the founders. These options vest at 1,500,000 per year over a period beginning January 1, 2007 to January 1, 2010 at exercise prices of $1.67 for the first three million and $2.67 for the remaining three million.
We believe that we have sufficient cash on hand to fund our operations during 2006. However, if the US beef export markets remain closed, particularly that of Japan (see "Description of Business - Industry Background"), we may require additional capital to support our operations during 2006. We may not be successful in our efforts to raise this additional capital. At the present time, we do not have commitments for any such additional capital, and there can be no assurance that, if needed, additional capital will be available to us on commercially acceptable terms, or at all.
Results of Operations
Year Ended December 31, 2005 Compared to Year Ended December 31, 2004
Revenues. Revenues are derived from our sales of our USVerified solutions customized product and service offerings, related hardware products, and advertising and subscriptions related to our internet-based online services. Revenues for the year ended December 31, 2005 were $957,894, an increase of 112% over the 2004 amount of $451,305. The primary reason for the increase in sales was the mid-2005 launch of our USVerified offerings. In addition, approximately 12% of 2005 sales were attributable to revenues from internet-based online services (Cattlenetwork.com and Cattlestore.com), which were acquired on May 12, 2005 and, therefore were not part of 2004 results. Sales of our USVerified solutions represented a substantial proportion [43%] of revenues during 2005 and are anticipated to continue to be so in the future. As set forth in Description of Business--Industry Background, we believe that customer demand for our USVerified solutions is substantially dependent upon the reopening of key export markets.
Cost of Sales and Gross Margin. Cost of sales for the year ended December 31, 2005 were $534,158, an increase of 232% over the 2004 amount of $160,832. Gross margin decreased to 44% of revenues for 2005 compared to 64% for 2004. A principal reason for this increase in cost of sales and corresponding decrease in gross margin percentage was that the 2005 amount includes an allocation for salaries paid to our founders. Prior to our conversion from a Subchapter S corporation to a Subchapter C corporation under the Internal Revenue code on January 1, 2005, these individuals received a substantial portion of their compensation ($120,686 during 2004) as dividends (which are not included in cost of sales) rather than salary. In addition, during 2005 there was a substantial increase in the amount of revenue from sales of hardware, which carries a lower gross margin percentage. We anticipate that in the future, sales of our USVerified solutions will constitute an increasing proportion of overall revenue, which will result in a corresponding increase in overall gross margin percentage due to the comparatively higher margins derived from USVerified relative to our other product and service offerings.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses for the year ended December 31, 2005 were $1,414,007, an increase of 494% over the 2004 amount of $238,061. The largest component of this increase was salaries, wages, and benefits, resulting from i) a substantial increase in our headcount associated with launch of the USVerified offering, ii) addition to the headcount related to acquisition and continued growth of our internet-based online services operations (Cattlenetwork,.com and Cattlestore.com), and iii) allocation of salaries paid to our founders (as described under Cost of Sales above). Our expenses for contracted services and travel & entertainment increased substantially from 2004 to 2005, primarily as a result of the launch of the USVerified offering. Additionally, our general and administrative expenses have increased due to human resource, professional services, and other costs related to our anticipated filing of a Registration Statement.
Other Income (Expense). Net other expense for the year ended December 31, 2005 increased to $37,701 compared to $11,913 for the year ended December 31, 2004. The increase during 2005 was primarily attributable to interest paid on the Promissory Note (which was issued in October 2004 and retired in May 2005), the Cattlefeeding.com Note (which was issued in May 2005), and increased borrowings under our line of credit (see Liquidity and Capital Resources and Notes to Financial Statements - Note 4 Notes payable).
Net Income (Loss). As a result of the foregoing, the net loss for the year ended December 31, 2005 was $1,027,972, compared to net income of $40,499 for the year ended December 31, 2004.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
December 31, 2005
At December 31, 2005, we had cash and cash equivalents of $684,833 and working capital of $599,322 compared to $12 of cash and negative working capital of $67,429 at December 31, 2004. At December 31, 2005 we had restricted cash of $471,664, including $421,664 held in escrow for the purchase of treasury stock and a $50,000 certificate of deposit held as collateral pursuant to our line of credit. We had no restricted cash at December 31, 2004. Net cash used by operating activities during the year ended December 31, 2005 was $869,783 compared to $16,679 provided by operating activities during the year ended December 31, 2004. Net cash used by investing activities during the year ended December 31, 2005 was $156,634, compared to $12,983 during the year ended December 31, 2004. Net cash provided by financing activities during the year ended December 31, 2005 was $1,711,238 compared to $2,960 used by financing activities during the year ended December 31, 2004. As described below, investing activities during 2005 included acquisition of assets and certain liabilities of Cattlefeeding.com. Fiancing activities during 2005 included two private placements of Common Stock and borrowings under our line of credit, which were partially offset by payments under a Promissory Note and purchase of treasury stock.
The principal reason for the change in cash provided by (used in) operating activities was the change in earnings from $40,499 to a loss of $1,027,972. This change was partially offset by an increase of $28,830 in non-cash expenses and changes in the current accounts.
Accounts receivable increased to $241,304 at December 31, 2005, compared to $67,633 at December 31, 2004. Days sales outstanding (DSO) increased to 92 days at December 31, 2005 compared with 55 days at December 31, 2004. The increase in accounts receivable and DSO during 2005 was primarily attributable to the increased level of USVerified revenues during the last two months of 2005 (which had not yet been collected as of December 31, 2005) substantially resulting from the temporary opening of the Japanese beef export market (see "Description of Business - Industry Background").
As of December 31, 2005 we had inventory of $9,950 compared with no inventory as of December 31, 2004. The inventory was acquired in November and December 2005 in anticipation of the opening of the Japanese market to U.S. beef and consists principally of identification tags.
We had no prepaid expenses as of December 31, 2005, but $55,914 as of December 31, 2004. The majority of the prepaid expenses were pre-paid advertising.
Accounts payable and accrued expenses increased to $190,030 at December 31, 2005, compared to $18,318 at December 31, 2004. The increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses was primarily attributable to an increased employee headcount, contracted services, and other expenses resulting from the market introduction of our USVerified solutions.
Deferred revenue at December 31, 2005 was $46,556, compared to $0 at December 31, 2004. The increase in deferred revenue was attributable to payments received under consulting contracts that were in process, but not yet completed, as of December 31, 2005.
Investing activities for the year ended December 31, 2005 included the acquisition of assets and certain liabilities of Cattlefeeding.com for a total purchase price of $515,000 ($150,000 cash plus additional consideration as described below). We do not have any future material commitments for capital expenditures.
Net financing activities for the year ended December 31, 2005 included the partial conversion to equity and partial repayment of a Promissory Note, sale of Common Stock under options related to the Promissory Note, two private placements of Common Stock, and additional borrowings under our line of credit. These transactions are discussed below.
In January 2005, in connection with the conversion from a Subchapter S Corporation to a Subchapter C Corporation under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended and conversion of outstanding principal and interest under the Promissory Note, under which interest was payable at 10% per annum, in the principal amount of $75,000 (75% of the total principal amount of $100,000), we issued 10,968,000 shares to our founders and 944,700 shares to the holders of the Note. Concurrently, the holders of the Note exercised options to purchase an aggregate of 2,745,300 shares of Common Stock from us for $217,855 cash.
In May 2005, in connection with repayment of the remaining $25,000 outstanding principal, interest and options under the Promissory Note, we paid $50,000 and issued 27,473 shares to the holder of the Note.
In May 2005, we completed a private placement offering under which we issued 928,796 shares of Common Stock for cash at $0.91 per share, which resulted in proceeds of $668,423, net of issuance costs of $176,777. The offering also included 442,860 shares which were sold directly by selling shareholders for which we did not receive any proceeds. Additionally, 200,000 shares of Common Stock and warrants to purchase 40,000 shares of Common Stock at $0.91 per share expiring in May 2009 were issued by us to the placement agent in connection with the offering.
In May 2005, in connection with the acquisition of assets and certain liabilities of Cattlefeeding.com we issued a promissory note in the amount of $350,000 payable with interest at a rate of 5% per annum. The note is payable with monthly payments of interest only for thirty-six months. The balance of the note and any unpaid interest will become due 37 months after closing. In addition, we granted 150,000 options to purchase our Common stock, valued pursuant to FAS 123 at $15,000.
In October 2005, we began a second private placement offering to sell a minimum of 800,000 and a maximum of 4,000,000 shares of Common Stock at $1.25 per share with net proceeds to be used for working capital, general corporate purposes and repurchases of Common Stock up to 5,500,000 shares from certain existing, related-party shareholders. Pursuant to this offering, in December 2005, we issued 1,110,400 shares of Common Stock for cash at $1.25 per share, which resulted in proceeds of $1,283,900, net of issuance costs of $104,100. Additionally, warrants to purchase 158,540 shares of Common Stock at $1.25 per share expiring in December 2009 were issued to the placement agent in connection with the offering. This offering was completed in February 2006.
We increased its borrowings under its Line of Credit with Platte Valley Bank to $100,000 at December 31, 2005 from $72,670 at December 31, 2004.
We believe that we have sufficient cash on hand to fund our operations during 2006. However, if the US beef export markets, particularly that of Japan (see "Description of Business - Industry Background"), remain closed we may require additional capital to support our operations during the next 12 months. We may not be successful in our efforts to raise this additional capital. At the present time, we do not have commitments for any such additional capital, and there can be no assurance that, if needed, additional capital will be available to us on commercially acceptable terms, or at all.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported. The estimates that required management's most difficult subjective or complex judgments are described below.
Impairment of Goodwill
We recorded goodwill as a result of the acquisition of Cattlefeeding.com, Inc. Following the end of 2005, an assessment was made whether any of the goodwill recorded had been impaired. After an assessment by us and review by the independent accountants, no impairment charge was taken.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
The allowance for doubtful accounts is based on management's best assessment of our outstanding receivables.
ORGANIZATION WITHIN THE LAST FIVE YEARS
Integrated Management Information, Inc. was incorporated in 1998 as a Missouri corporation. In March, 2005, we reincorporated in Delaware and in April 2006 we redomiciled to Colorado.
Until December 31, 2004 we operated as a Subchapter S corporation under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, with any income or loss passed through to the shareholders for income tax purposes. Beginning January 1, 2005 we converted to a Subchapter C corporation and became subject to income taxation.
Description of Business
Overview and Business Development
We were organized to apply information technology and electronic documentation management to the livestock industry by addressing the growing importance to the industry (producers, processors, and customers) of detailed information regarding identification, traceability, and verification of marketing claims such as: source of origin information, genetic background, animal treatment, animal health history, animal age, animal movements, nutrition, and other credence attributes (those claims made that can not be confirmed by visual inspection once the product reaches the meat case and is marketed to the consumer). To address this demand, we developed a range of proprietary computer software, consulting methodologies, auditing processes, and other services to allow the livestock industry to record, manage, report, and audit this information.
In May 2005, we acquired certain assets and liabilities of Cattlefeeding.com, Inc., an entity which operated Cattenetwork.com, an internet-based online service providing news and information about the North American cattle industry. Cattlenetwork.com contributes revenues from its e-commerce activities (Cattlestore.com), paid subscriptions, and advertising.
Industry Background
As the cattle livestock industry has matured and expanded internationally, there has been an increasing need to record, manage, report and audit information regarding the source, age, genetic background, nutrition, and other credence attributes of livestock for the benefit of producers, processors, distributors, retailers, consumers, and regulators.
Demand for livestock identification, traceability and verification solutions further accelerated in recent years due to industry and consumer concerns regarding bovine spongiform encephalopathy (mad cow disease) governmental and industry regulations regarding recordkeeping for livestock, and technology, and technology advances, including radio frequency ID tags for livestock and web-based systems facilitating real-time data entry and reporting.
Many of the world's largest beef exporting countries, including Brazil, Argentina, and Australia, have established mandatory traceability and verification standards. Other countries have issued voluntary animal identification and traceability standards. The United States lags with regards to meeting this market demand, as the United States government has not to date established voluntary or mandatory traceability and verification standards. Currently, the Agriculture and Plant Health Inspection Services Agency ("APHIS") is working on the development of recommended voluntary animal identification and traceability standards. However, the estimated time for launch is not until January 2009.
To support industry driven marketing programs and to comply with regulations established by international export partners, the United States Department of Agriculture ("USDA"), Agriculture Marketing Service, Audit, Review and Compliance Branch has established the voluntary Quality System Assessment, Non Hormone Treated Cattle, and Process Verified programs based on ISO 9000 Standards. These programs provide guidelines and structure to enable suppliers of agricultural products and services to assure customers of their ability to provide consistent quality products or services by having their processes audited by independent, third-party audits using USDA approved methodologies and standards.
The USDA's Quality System Assessment (QSA) program is a documented quality management system and verification trail that can support specific product claims or customer requirements, as well as confirm compliance with export standards. The approved QSA must show that characteristics of the product are being monitored and measured accurately. Approved QSA programs are audited by the USDA at least twice per year.
The USDA's Process Verified Program ("PVP") is similar to the QSA program, but broader in scope. Like the QSA, PVP ensures that companies deliver products that meet stated product claims. In addition, it provides beef suppliers with a verifiable marketing tool. Once marketing claims are verified by the USDA, the company may use the "USDA Process Verified" shield on its marketing materials.
Both Quality Systems Assessment and Process Verification Programs are applicable to a company's entire program or certain portions of its programs where specified producer or product requirements are supported by a document quality management system and the documented delivery processes are verified through an independent, third party audit. To operate an approved program, suppliers must submit a documented quality management system to the Audit Review and Compliance Branch of the USDA Livestock and Seed Program and successfully pass a document review and an on-site audit.
Within the United States, these USDA programs are voluntary and are primarily useful in providing the industry with a process for demonstrating source, age, and quality attributes as the product moves through the supply chain. In addition, compliance with the programs allows producers to verify claims such as "all natural," "non-hormone treated," or "guaranteed tender."
To market beef products outside of the United States, suppliers must comply with the QSA and PVP policies and procedures and address the specified product requirements addressed in the USDA Export Verification ("EV") Program specific to each country. Regardless of final export destination or specific Export Verification program requirements, US suppliers seeking to sell beef products must participate in a pre-approved Quality System Assessment so as to have an approved means of verifying source, age, and other specific product requirements. Therefore, though the program is voluntary, it is mandatory to gain access to export markets.
To market beef products in Japan, Mexico, South Korea, Canada and Europe, the world's largest export markets, beef is required to be sourced from cattle that are of a certain maximum age at the time of slaughter. The USDA QSA program is the standard mechanism for verifying source and age for these export markets and, therefore, is a mandatory requirement for producers, packers, and distributors to sell beef products for export to these key markets.
These export markets represent a significant opportunity for the US cattle industry. Prior to the discovery of the first case of mad cow disease in the US in December 2003, the USDA estimated that the industry exported approximately $2.8B to Japan, Mexico, South Korea, and Canada. The governments of these and other countries responded to the discovery by forbidding import of beef from the US, and exports to these countries fell to approximately $0.4B during 2004. In large part because of implementation of the USDA QSA initiatives export partners' confidence in the US cattle supply increased, and many key export markets reopened, including Mexico, Hong Kong, Singapore, and Taiwan. In December 2005, Japan lifted its ban on imported US beef, but reinstated it in January 2006 after an inspection revealed a case of non-compliance with the Japanese import regulations. Current beef consumption within the US has not changed over the past 20 years, while the productivity of the US beef industry continues to improve. Therefore, international market access and growth is critical for the US beef industry. Future growth opportunities for US protein lie in consumption growth internationally, as only 2% of the world's population resides in the US.
The opportunity to participate in export markets presents a strong indicator of potential demand for approved verification processes, which have become essential. However, during the time in which the export markets are closed, demand for solutions to comply with these regulatory requirements is constrained.
The Business
To address the livestock industry's requirements to deploy and maintain identification, traceability, and verification systems and to facilitate participation in and compliance with the USDA's Quality System Assessment, Process Verification, and Beef Export Verification Programs, we have developed and offer a balanced portfolio of products and services. These solutions address specific requirements at each level of the livestock supply chain. In addition, we offer customized solutions to address unique customer requirements. We complement these products and services with our Cattlenetwork.com and Cattlestore.com industry information services and internet portals.
Our product and services offerings are described in further detail below.
USVerified
We offer a range of products and services under our USVerified brand to track, record, manage, report, and audit key data regarding livestock. Our offerings address the needs of each industry segment, and our customers span the supply chain from birth through the various stages of feeding and raising the livestock, to packing and distribution.
Our USVerified products and services offerings are tailored to the needs of each level of the beef supply chain in support of USDA programs:
Suppliers
SupplyVerified is a consulting and auditing service offered to cattle suppliers that allows them to demonstrate their ability to efficiently and accurately track key data related to the source and age of cattle. Our SupplyVerified program was the industry's first USDA approved offsite evaluation process for cattle suppliers to meet requirements under the USDA's Quality Systems Assessment (QSA) program.
Under the SupplyVerified program, suppliers provide documentation to us about their processes for compliance with the QSA program. This documentation is evaluated and audited by us and, if warranted, we provide a certificate that the producer meets the requirements of source and age verification. We charge each cattle supplier a fixed annual fee for performing the audit and providing the certification. In order to maintain QSA certification, a supplier must participate in the annual audits.
We estimate that there are approximately 850,000 independent suppliers of cattle in the United States, of which approximately 5,000 have herds of at least 500 head.
Feed Yards
We offer solutions to enable feed yards to comply with USDA's QSA requirements. Initially, we work with the feed yard to implement the required systems and procedures to track key data regarding the cattle that move through the operation, including source and age as well as additional health and nutritional information. This service is provided and priced to feed yards on a packaged basis, which includes a license to our proprietary software and processes, implementation services, and initial training. In addition, we provide hosting services under which we maintain and manage the data created by these systems on a monthly basis.
We estimate that there are approximately 5,000 independent feed yards in the United States.
Packers
We offer solutions to meat packers, processors and distributors to demonstrate that their products comply with USDA's QSA requirements, Export Verification ("EV") requirements as well as the USDA's Process Verified Program ("PVP"), which is broader in scope than the QSA program. Suppliers with approved USDA Process Verified Programs are able to make marketing claims associated with their process verified points -- such as age, source, feeding practices, or other raising and processing claims -- and market themselves as "USDA Process Verified." This service is provided and priced to meat packers on a packaged basis, which includes a license to our proprietary software and processes, implementation services, and initial training. In addition, we provide hosting services under which we maintain and manage the data created by these systems on a monthly basis.
We estimate that there are approximately 50 independent beef packers in the United States, of which five packers constitute the majority of volume.
Consulting
In addition to our standard product offerings, we offer consulting and licenses its proprietary software and processes on a customized basis to meet special customer requirements.
Hardware
In support of these proprietary product and service offerings, we offer hardware products (primarily radio frequency identification cattle tags) to our customers. While these hardware products have lower profit margins compared with our proprietary offerings, they allow us to offer our customers a comprehensive solution.
Internet-Based Online Services
We own and operate Cattlenetwork.com, an internet-based online service providing news and information about the North American cattle industry and Cattlestore.com, an e-commerce site for customers to purchase a wide range of products and supplies related to cattle production.
We believe that Cattlenetwork.com is the largest online source of news and information regarding the North American cattle industry. In addition, Cattlenetwork publishes a biweekly newsletter that is distributed to subscribers via email. Subscriptions to our Cattlenetwork information services and newsletter are sold directly to customers on the Cattlenetwork website. Web-based and newsletter advertisements are sold directly to advertisers.
We derive revenue from our internet-based online service offerings through a combination of i) advertising sales to companies seeking to reach Cattlenetwork's unique base of readers and subscribers, ii) sales of products through Cattlestore.com, and iii) customer subscriptions. Although basic access to Cattlenetwork.com is available without charge, we offer paid subscriptions to Cattlenetwork's premium content ("Gold" and "Platinum" level subscriptions). Cattlenetwork's premium content includes more extensive coverage of news events, delayed, as well as real-time quotes and charts for commodities and related financial markets, USDA and weather reports, and articles written by a network of industry experts.

Our Articles of Incorporation authorize us to issue up to 95,000,000 common shares, $0.001 par value per share and 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $0.001 par value. As of April 15, 2006, we had 17,867,515 shares of common stock outstanding held by our stockholders. No shares of preferred stock have been issued.
Liquidation Rights
Upon liquidation or dissolution, each outstanding common share will be entitled to share equally in our assets legally available for distribution to stockholders after the payment of all debts and other liabilities.
Dividend Rights
There are no limitations or restrictions upon the rights of our Board of Directors to declare dividends, and we may pay dividends on our shares in cash, property, or our own shares, except when we are insolvent or when the payment thereof would render us insolvent subject to the provisions of the Delaware Statutes. We have not paid dividends in the past and it is not anticipated that any dividends will be paid in the foreseeable future.
Voting Rights
Holders of our common shares are entitled to cast one vote for each share held at all stockholders meetings for all purposes. There are no cumulative voting rights.
Other Rights
Our common shares are not redeemable, have no conversion rights and carry no preemptive or other rights to subscribe to, or purchase, additional common shares in the event of a subsequent offering. There are no other material rights of the common stockholders not included herein. There is no provision in our charter or by-laws that would delay, defer or prevent a change in control of IMI Global. We have not issued any debt securities. Each stockholder of IMI Global will receive an annual report, including audited financial statements. Although IMI Global is not currently a reporting company, upon approval of this registration statement, it will begin filing quarterly reports on Form 10-QSB and annual reports on Form 10-KSB.
INDEMNIFICATION FOR SECURITIES ACT LIABILITIES
Our charter provides that we will indemnify our current and former directors, officers and employees against expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement arising out of their services as directors, officers or employees of the company. Section 7 of the Colorado Business Corporation Act states that we have the power to indemnify any person made a party to any lawsuit by reason of being our director or officer against expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful.
Our employment agreements with our officers contain provisions requiring us to indemnify them to the fullest extent permitted by Colorado law. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and persons controlling the company pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, we have been advised that, in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
The selling shareholders, and any of their pledges, assignees and successors-in-interest may, from time to time, sell any or all of their shares of our common stock on any stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the shares are traded. They may also sell the shares in private transactions in accordance with applicable law. Because there is currently no market for our common stock the prices at which the selling shareholder will sell their shares is a fixed price of $0.83 until the Securities are quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board and thereafter at prevailing market prices or privately negotiated prices. The selling shareholders may use any one or more of the following methods when selling shares:
o ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers;
o block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the shares as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;
o purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account;
o privately negotiated transactions;
o broker-dealers may agree with the selling shareholders to sell a specified number of such shares at a stipulated price per share;
o a combination of any such methods of sale; or
o any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.
The selling shareholders may also sell shares of our common stock under Rule 144 under the Securities Act, if available, rather than under this prospectus.
Broker-dealers engaged by the selling shareholders may arrange for other broker-dealers to participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive commissions or discounts from the selling shareholders (or, if any broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of shares, from the purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated.
The selling shareholders and any broker-dealers or agents that are involved in selling the shares may be deemed to be "underwriters" within the meaning of the Securities Act in connection with such sales. In such event, any commissions received by such broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the resale of the shares purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act. The selling shareholders have informed us that they do not have any agreement or understanding, directly or indirectly, with any person to distribute our common stock.
We are required to pay certain fees and expenses incurred by us incidental to the registration of the shares of our common stock.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
Board of Directors
Integrated Management Information, Inc.
I have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Integrated Management Information, Inc. as of December 31, 2005 and 2004, and the related statements of operations, changes in stockholders' equity (deficit) and cash flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. My responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on my audits.
I conducted my audits in accordance with standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that I plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. 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. I believe that my audits provide a reasonable basis for my opinion.
In my opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly in all material respects, the financial position of Integrated Management Information, Inc. as of December 31, 2005 and 2004 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
As discussed in Note 14 to the financial statements, the Company has restated its financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2005 in order to correctly reflect intangible assets and goodwill.

Note 1 - Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Organization
Integrated Management Information, Inc. ("IMI Global," "IMI," or the "Company") was incorporated in 1998 as a Missouri corporation. In March 2005, IMI was reincorporated in Delaware. The Company provides livestock tracking and herd management software database applications, consulting services, verification solutions for the livestock and meat industry and maintains an internet portal dedicated to news, trends, and products in the agricultural industry.
IMI Global stands at the forefront of a rapidly evolving movement to track cattle and verify sources of beef products. In the aftermath of the discovery of the first case of mad cow disease in the United States in December, 2003, many of the largest U.S. beef export markets were closed resulting in significant losses to the industry.
In response to the crisis, several initiatives are being enacted to facilitate the reopening of key export markets. Most notably, U.S. suppliers seeking to sell beef and beef products to other countries must participate in a pre-approved Quality System Assessment Program so as to have an approved means of verifying specific product requirements. With the introduction of the USVerified Source and Age Verification system last year, IMI Global was the first to develop a USDA Quality System Assessment document management system for auditing the tracking systems used by beef producers to verify source and age.
Liquidity
As shown in the accompanying financial statements, the Company has incurred a loss from operations and negative cash flows from operations. During 2005, the Company's growth was funded through a combination of convertible debt from private investors and private placement offerings. The Company expects that it may need to raise additional capital to accomplish its business objectives. The Company will continually evaluate all funding options including additional offerings of its securities to private, public and institutional investors and other credit facilities as they become available. There can be no assurance as to the availability or terms upon which financing alternatives might be available.
Basis of presentation
All Common Stock shares are presented to reflect a 12 for 1 split approved by the shareholders on March 4, 2005.
The Company accounts for acquired businesses using the purchase method of
accounting which requires that the assets acquired and liabilities assumed be
recorded at the date of acquisition at their respective fair values. The
Company's financial statements reflect an acquired business after the completion
of the acquisition and are not restated. The cost to acquire a business,
including transaction costs, is allocated to the underlying net assets of the
acquired businesses in proportion to their respective fair values. Any excess of
the purchase price over the estimated fair values of the net assets acquired is
recorded as goodwill.
On May 12, 2005, IMI completed an acquisition of Cattlefeeding.com, Inc.'s net assets which has been accounted for under the purchase method of accounting. Starting at the date of acquisition, the assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recorded at their respective fair values and the Company's results of operations included Cattlefeeding.com's advertising revenues, product sales, costs and expenses from the acquisition date. Therefore, approximately 7 1/2 months of results of operations of Cattlefeeding.com's operations are included in the Company's financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2005.
Estimates and assumptions
In preparing financial statements, the Company uses certain estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts and disclosures. For example, estimates are used when accounting for depreciation, amortization, contingencies and asset and liability valuations. Estimates are often based on complex judgments, probabilities and assumptions that the Company believes to be reasonable but that are inherently uncertain and unpredictable. Assumptions may be incomplete or inaccurate and unanticipated events and circumstances may occur. It is also possible that other professionals, applying reasonable judgment to the same facts and circumstance, could develop and support a range of alternative estimated amounts. The Company is also subject to risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ from estimated amounts, such as changes in the administrative directives, rules and regulations of federal, state and local regulatory agencies, including but not limited to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, or the Agricultural Marketing Service and the Food Safety Inspection Service.
Revenue recognition
Revenues are recognized only when realized / realizable and earned in accordance with generally acceptable accounting principles.
* Revenue from product sales are recognized when the goods are shipped and title passes to the customer.
* Revenue from contracts for consulting and website development are recognized on the percentage of completion method.
* Advertising revenues earned by Cattlefeeding.com are recognized when the underlying advertisements are published.
* Revenue derived from IMI's US Verified program is recognized ratably over the contract term. Contracts are cancelable only for non-performance, and the billable revenue of these contracts at December 31, 2005 was $106,000.
Cash and cash equivalents
All cash and short-term investments with original maturities of three months or less are considered cash and cash equivalents, since they are readily convertible to cash. These short-term investments are stated at cost, which approximates fair value.
Restricted cash
Pursuant to the terms of the Company's line of credit with the Platte Valley Bank, a $50,000 certificate of deposit is restricted to collateralize the line of credit.
An escrow account has been created to hold the funding for stock that was resold in the private offering. These funds totaling $421,664 were paid out in January, 2006.
Research and development and software development costs
Research and development costs are charged to operations as incurred. SFAS No. 86, "Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software to Be Sold, Leased or Otherwise Marketed," requires the capitalization of certain computer software development costs incurred upon the establishment of technological feasibility. The Company's current process for developing software is essentially completed concurrently with the establishment of technological feasibility; therefore, no costs have been capitalized in 2005 or 2004.
Stock-based compensation
SFAS No. 123 "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," established and encourages the use of the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based compensation arrangements under which compensation cost is determined using the fair value of stock-based compensation determined as of the date of the grant and is recognized over the periods in which the related services are rendered. The statement also permits companies to elect to continue using the current intrinsic value accounting method specified in Accounting Principles Board ("APB") Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees", to account for stock-based compensation. The Company has elected to use the intrinsic value based method and has disclosed the pro forma effect of using the fair value based method to account for its stock-based compensation issued to employees (see Note 7 - Stock-based compensation). For options granted to employees where the exercise price is less than the fair value of the stock at the date of grant, the Company recognizes an expense in accordance with APB 25. For non-employee stock-based compensation the Company recognizes an expense in accordance with SFAS No. 123 and values the equity securities based on the fair value of the security on the date of grant.
Amortization of intangible assets, depreciation and certain long-lived assets
Long-lived assets include:
* Goodwill - Goodwill represents the difference between the purchase price of a business acquisition and the fair value of its net assets. Goodwill is not amortized.
* Property, plant and equipment - These assets are recorded at original cost and increased by the cost of any significant improvements made after purchase, The Company depreciates the cost over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets using straight line depreciation.
* Intangible assets- Intangibles resulted from the allocation of the estimated fair values of intangibles acquired in connection with the acquisition of Cattlefeeding.com, Inc. The company amortizes these assets on a straight line basis over their estimated useful lives.
The Company reviews all of its long-lived assets, including goodwill and other intangible assets, for impairment at least annually. The Company records changes for impairments of long-lived assets for the amount by which the present value of future cash flows, or some other fair value measure, is less than the carrying value of these assets.
Advertising expenses
Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. The total advertising expenses included in the Statement of Operations for the year ended December 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004 were $48,429 and $5,336, respectively.
Fair value of financial instruments
For certain of the Company's financial instruments, including cash, accounts payable and accrued interest, the carrying amounts approximate fair value due to their short maturities. The amounts shown for notes payable also approximate fair value because current interest rates and terms offered to the Company for similar debt are substantially the same.
Income (Loss) per share
In accordance with SFAS No. 128, "Earnings Per Share," the basic income / (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income / (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted income per common share is computed similar to basic income per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common shares had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive.
Concentration of credit risk
Financial instruments, which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk, consist of cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable. The Company places its cash with high quality financial institutions and at times may exceed the FDIC $100,000 insurance limit. The Company extends credit based on an evaluation of the customer's financial condition, generally without collateral. Exposure to losses on receivables is principally dependent on each customer's financial condition. The Company monitors its exposure for credit losses and maintains allowances for anticipated losses, as required. Accounts are "written-off" when deemed uncollectible.
Note 2 - Acquisitions
On May 12, 2005, IMI Global, Inc. acquired the net assets of Cattlefeeding.com, Inc. (a/k/a CattleNetwork.com) as a vehicle to market the Company's products and expand the reach and profile of the Company in the livestock industry. Cattlefeeding.com, Inc. owned and operated the internet domain names known as CattleNetwork.com and CattleStore.com and all of the intellectual and personal property located at or related to the businesses. The purchase price was $500,000 plus options for 150,000 shares of IMI Global, Inc. Common Stock exercisable at $0.91 per share for a three year period from closing.
The $500,000 purchase price consisted of $150,000 cash at closing, plus a note in the amount of $350,000 payable with interest at a rate of 5% per annum (the "Cattlefeeding.com Note"). The note is payable with monthly payments of interest only for thirty-six months. The balance of the note and any unpaid interest is due on June 12, 2008. The 150,000 options were valued pursuant to FAS 123 at $15,000.
The following table summarizes the components of the purchase price:

The Company maintains a $100,000 line of credit with Platte Valley Bank. The line of credit is secured by a $50,000 certificate of deposit and the personal guarantee of the two founding shareholders. Interest, which is payable monthly, was at an annual rate of 5% during 2005 and can be increased annually to 2% above the bank's certificate of deposit rate.
On October 12, 2004, the Company issued a note in the principal amount of $100,000 to two related parties (50% and 25%, respectively) and a non-related investor (25%) (the "Promissory Note"). Terms of the notes provided for annual interest of 10% payable on a monthly basis, conversion at the option of the lenders into an aggregate of 7% of the Company's outstanding Common Stock (with anti-dilution provisions and a further option to purchase an additional 7% of the Company's outstanding Common Stock for an additional $100,000) and final repayment of outstanding interest and principal on October 13, 2007. In January 2005, $75,000 principal amount of the note (the portion held by the two related parties) was converted to Common Stock. In May 2005, the remaining $25,000 principal amount under the note (held by the non-related investor) was exchanged by the Company for $50,000 cash and 27,473 shares of Common Stock in satisfaction of all obligations under the Promissory Note. Further details regarding these transactions are provided in Note 8 - Common Stock.
On May 12, 2005, in connection with the acquisition of Cattlefeeding.com, Inc.'s net assets (see Note 2 - Acquisitions), the Company issued a Note Payable to Cattlefeeding.com, Inc. in the amount of $350,000. Under the Note, interest in the amount of 5% of outstanding principal is payable on a monthly basis, with all outstanding principal and interest payable on June 12, 2008.
Note 5 - Income taxes
Until December 31, 2004, the Company was structured as a Subchapter S corporation under the Internal Revenue Code, with any income or loss passed through to shareholders for tax purposes. Beginning January 1, 2005, the Company converted to a Subchapter C and began to be subject to income taxation under the Code.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities have been determined based upon the differences between the financial statement amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities as measured by enacted tax rates expected to be in effect when these differences are expected to reverse. In assessing the reliability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the realization of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers past history, the scheduled reversal of taxable temporary differences, projected future taxable income, and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. As of December 31, 2005 and 2004, management believes it is more likely than not that the Company's net deferred tax asset will not be realized and accordingly has recorded a valuation allowance against the deferred tax assets.
Significant components of the Company's deferred income tax assets and liabilities are as follows:
Deferred income tax asset $ 343,400
Valuation allowance $ (343,400)
The Company has available as of December 31, 2005 for federal income tax
|
purposes, unused net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $1,010,000 which may be applied against future taxable income and expire in years beginning in 2020. Utilization of net operating losses may be limited in the event of an ownership change under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code.
Note 6 - Common Stock
As of December 31, 2005, the Company had 50,000,000 authorized shares of $0.01 par value Common Stock with 16,936,669 shares outstanding. As of December 31, 2004, the Company had 100,000 authorized shares of $1.00 par value Common Stock with 12,000 shares outstanding.
In January 2005, in connection with the conversion of the Company from a
Subchapter S Corporation to a Subchapter C Corporation under the Internal
Revenue Code and conversion of outstanding principal and interest under the
Promissory Note in the principal amount of $75,000 (75% of the total principal
amount of $100,000), the Company issued 10,968,000 shares to its founders and
944,700 shares to the holders of the Promissory Note. Concurrently, the holders
of the Promissory Note exercised options to purchase an aggregate of 2,745,300
shares of Common Stock from the Company for $217,855 cash. Pursuant to the
transaction, the two former holders of the Promissory Note were appointed to the
Company's Board of Directors.
In addition, the Company committed to use its best efforts to develop a strategy of liquidity including, but not limited to: a sale of the Company, a merger with a public company, or an initial public offering. If such an event of liquidity has not occurred by January 5, 2006, the Company agreed to pay annual dividends to the Common shareholders representing 75% of each year's earnings before depreciation, amortization and other non-cash expenses payable by March 15 of the succeeding year. The Company is preparing the initial public offering document, and anticipates filing it during the second quarter of 2006. The Company did not have earnings for the year ending December 31, 2005, and therefore does not owe dividends to shareholders for the current year.
In May 2005, the Company settled the remaining $25,000 principal amount of the Promissory Note, including the related interest and the option to purchase Common Stock, by paying $50,000 cash and issuing 27,473 shares of Common Stock to the remaining holder of the Promissory Note.
In May 2005, the Company issued 928,796 shares of Common Stock for cash at $0.91 per share, which resulted in proceeds of $668,423, net of issuance costs of $176,777. The offering also included 442,860 shares which were sold directly by selling shareholders for which the company did not receive any proceeds. Additionally, 200,000 shares of Common Stock and warrants to purchase 40,000 shares of Common Stock at $0.91 per share expiring in May 2009 were issued by the Company to the placement agent in connection with the offering.
In October 2005, the Company began a private placement offering to sell a
minimum of 800,000 and a maximum of 4,000,000 shares of Common Stock at $1.25
per share with net proceeds to be used for working capital, general corporate
purposes and repurchase of Common Stock up to 5,500,000 shares from certain
existing, related-party shareholders. Pursuant to this offering, in December
2005, the Company issued 1,110,400 shares of Common Stock for cash at $1.25 per
share, which resulted in proceeds of $1,283,900, net of issuance costs of
$104,100. Additionally, warrants to purchase 158,540 shares of Common Stock at
$1.25 per share expiring in December 2009 were issued to the placement agent in
connection with the offering. The offering continued into January 2006 (see Note
12 - Subsequent Events).
Note 7 - Employee stock options
On March 12, 2005 the Company's Board of Directors granted options to acquire
Common Stock to certain employees and advisors. These stock options have a term
of three years and a vesting period of one year from the date the option is
granted.
A summary of stock option transactions for the year ended December 31, 2005 follows:
Options Weighted Average Exercise Price
----------------- ----------------
Balance Outstanding December 31, 2004 0
Granted 1,125,000 $0.91
Exercised 0 $0.91
Cancelled (150,000) $0.91
----------------- ----------------
Balance Outstanding December 31, 2005 975,000 $0.91
================= ================
|
As of December 31, 2005, there were 975,000 options outstanding with exercise price of $0.91 and weighted-average remaining contractual life of 2.2 years. None of these options were exercisable as of December 31, 2005.
Note 8 - Stock-based compensation
The Company uses the intrinsic-value method of accounting to measure compensation expense associated with grants of stock options and other stock-based awards to employees and directors. As permitted under SFAS No. 148, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation - Transition and Disclosure," which amended SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," the Company has elected to continue to follow the intrinsic-value method in accounting for its stock-based employee compensation arrangements as defined by Accounting Principles Board ("APB") Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," and related interpretations including Financial Interpretation Number ("FIN") 44, "Accounting for Certain Transactions Involving Stock Compensation," an interpretation of APB No. 25.
No stock-based employee compensation cost is reflected in net loss, as all options granted under those plans had an exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of the grant. Had the Company recognized compensation for its stock options and other awards based on the fair-value method of accounting for awards under those plans, pro-forma net income would have been as follows:

Pro forma net income (loss) $ (1,061,482) $ 40,499

The fair values used to compute pro-forma net loss were estimated on the grant

assumptions:

The Company uses the intrinsic-value method of accounting to measure compensation expense associated with grants of stock options and other stock-based awards to consultants and other nonemployees. The Company records the fair value of stock options and warrants granted to nonemployees in exchange for services under the fair-value method in accordance with SFAS No. 123 and Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 96-18, "Accounting for Equity Instruments That Are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling, Goods or Services," in the statements of operations. Under this method, the resulting compensation is measured at the fair value of the equity instrument on the date of vesting and recognized as a charge to operations over the service period, which is usually the vesting period.
Note 9 - Basic and diluted net income (loss) per share
Net loss per share is calculated in accordance with the Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128 (SOFAS No. 128), "Earnings per Share". Basic net loss per share is based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted net loss per share is based on the assumption that all dilutive convertible shares and stock options were converted or exercised. Dilution is computed by applying the treasury stock method. Under this method, options and warrants are assumed to be exercised at the beginning of the period (or at the time of issuance, if later), and as if funds obtained thereby were used to purchase Common Stock at the average market price during the period.
Weighted average number of shares used to compute basic and diluted loss per share is the same in these financial statements since the effect of dilutive securities is anti-dilutive.
Note 10 - Related party transactions
In 2004, the Company recorded $24,065 in sales from a related party (father of Leann Saunders, a founding shareholder) and had an account receivable outstanding at December 31, 2004 in the amount of $21,585. The sales occurred in the normal course of business, and the account receivable was subsequently paid in December 2005.
In 2005, the Company recorded $8,005 in sales from a related party (father of
Leann Saunders, a founding shareholder) and the amount was outstanding at
December 31, 2005.
In 2005, the Company paid two members of its Board of Directors a total of $110,000 for advisory and business development services.
At December 31, 2005 and 2004, advances of $1,900 and $22,197 were outstanding from the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board. The amount of $22,197 was repaid during the year 2005, and $1,900 was repaid in February, 2006.
Note 11 - Commitments In February 2005, the Company entered into agreements with two members of its Board of Directors to provide business development and investor relations |
advisory services. The agreements were amended in October 2005 and will terminate one year from the date the Company realizes an event of liquidity. The fees for these services are $8,500 per month, plus reimbursement of related expenses.
The Company leases office space and office furniture for use in its operations. In addition to rent, the leases may require the Company to pay directly for taxes, insurance , maintenance and other operating expenses, or to pay higher rent when operating expenses increase. Rental expense was $38,273 for the year ended December 31, 2005. The current lease is for the term beginning July 15, 2005 and ending July 15, 2006, with automatic renewal unless one party to the agreement gives the other party at least ninety days notice prior to the expiration of the then term of the lease. The remaining lease commitment for the period January 1, 2006 through July 15, 2006 is in the monthly amount of $3,589, resulting in a total minimum lease commitment at December 31, 2005 of $23,328.
Note 12 - Subsequent events
In February 2006, the Company completed the private placement offering initiated in October 2005 (see Note 8 - Common Stock) and issued an additional 475,000 shares of Common Stock for cash at $1.25 per share, which resulted in proceeds of $549,219, net of issuance costs of $44,531. Concurrently, the Company purchased 700,000 shares at $0.75 per share from two members of the Company's Board of Directors and 4,800,000 shares at $0.075 per share from the Company's founders for an aggregate purchase price of $885,000. As additional consideration for the purchase of the foregoing shares from the Company's founders, the Company granted options to purchase an aggregate of 4,000,000 shares of Common Stock to the founders. These options vest at 1,000,000 per year over a period beginning January 1, 2007 to January 1, 2010 at exercise prices of $2.50 for the first two million and $4.00 for the remaining two million.
In February 2006, pursuant to an employment agreement with the Company's Chief Financial Officer, the Company granted an aggregate of 1,100,000 options to purchase Common Stock at exercise prices of $1.25 - $1.75. These options have a term of three years and vest over a period beginning at the time of grant and ending in July 2007.
In February 2006 at a special meeting of shareholders, Company's shareholders
approved a resolution to move the Company's state of incorporation from Delaware
to Colorado. The Shareholders also approved a three for two stock split,
effective as of February 14, 2006.
Note 13 - Recent accounting pronouncements
In March, 2004, the FASB approved the consensus reached on the Emerging Issues Task Forces (EITF) Issue No. 03-1, "The Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment and Its Application to Certain Investments." The objective of this Issue is to provide guidance for identifying impaired investments. EITF 03-1 also provides new disclosure requirements for investments which are deemed to be temporarily impaired. In September 2004, the FASB issued a FASB Staff Position (FSP) EITF 03-1-1 that delays the effective date of the measurement and recognition are effective only for annual periods ending after June15, 2004. The Company has evaluated the impact of the adoption of the disclosure requirements of EITF 03-1 and does not believe it will have an impact to the Company's overall combined results of operations or combined financial position. Once the FASB reaches a final decision on the measurement and recognition provisions, the Company will evaluate the impact of the adoption of EITF 03-1.
In November 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 151 "Inventory Costs", an amendment of ARB No. 43, Chapter 4 ("SFAS No. 151"). The amendments made by SFAS 151 clarify that abnormal amount of idle facility expense, freight, handling costs, and wasted materials (spoilage) should be recognized as current-period charges and require the allocation of fixed production overheads to inventory based on the normal capacity of the production facilities. The guidance is effective for inventory costs incurred during fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005. Earlier application is permitted for inventory costs incurred during fiscal years beginning after November 23, 2004. The Company has evaluated the impact of the adoption of SFAS 151, and does not believe the impact will be significant to the Company's overall results of operations or financial position.
In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 153, "Exchanges of Nonmonetary Asset,
an amendment of APB Opinion No. 29, Accounting for Nonmonetary Transactions."
The amendments made by SFAS 153 are based on the principle that exchanges of
nonmonetary assets should be measured based on the fair value of the assets
exchanged. Further, the amendments eliminate the narrow exception for
nonmonetary exchanges of similar productive assets and replace it with a broader
exception for exchanges of nonmonetary assets that do not have commercial
substance. Previously, Opinion 29 required that the accounting for an exchange
of a productive asset for a similar productive asset or an equivalent interest
in the same or similar productive asset should be based on the recorded amount
of the asset relinquished. Opinion 29 provided an exception to its basis
measurement principle (fair value) for exchanges of similar productive assets.
That exception required that some nonmonetary exchanges, although commercially
substantive, to be recorded on a carryover basis. By focusing the exception on
exchanges that lack commercial substance, the FASB believes SFAS No. 153 is
effective for nonmonetary asset exchanges occurring in fiscal periods beginning
after June 15, 2005. Earlier application is permitted for nonmonetary asset
exchanges occurring in fiscal periods beginning after the date of issuance. The
provisions of SFAS No. 153 shall be applied prospectively. The Company has
evaluated the impact of the adoption of SFAS 153, and does not believe there
will be any impact to the Company, as no transactions of this type are currently
contemplated.
In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004), "Share-Based Payment" ("SFAS 123R"). SFAS 123R will provide investors and other users of financial statements with more complete and neutral financial information by requiring that the compensation costs relating to share-based payment transactions be recognized in financial statements. That cost will be measured based on the fair value of the equity or liability instruments issued. SFAS 123R covers a wide range of share-based compensation arrangements including share options, restricted share plans, performance-based awards, share appreciation rights and employee share purchase plans. SFAS 123R replaces SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation", and supersedes APB Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees". SFAS 123, as originally issued in 1995, established as preferable a fair-value-based method of accounting for share-based payment transactions with employees. However, that statement permitted entities the option of continuing to apply the guidance in Opinion 25, as long as the footnotes to financial statements disclosed what net income would have been had the preferable fair-value based method been used. Public entities (other than those filing as small business issuers) will be required to apply SFAS 123R as of the first interim or annual reporting period that begins after June 15, 2005. The Company has evaluated the impact of the adoption of SFAS 123R and believes the impact could be significant to the Company's overall results of operations to the extent it issues stock options.
Note 14 - Restatement
Subsequent to issuing the Company's December 31, 2005 financial statements, the Company discovered an error in the accounting treatment of the assets acquired from Cattlefeeding.com, Inc. At the time of the acquisition, Cattlefeeding.com, Inc. had not been profitable and had minimal third party revenues. Accordingly, no intangibles were separately identified and valued so the excess purchase price, calculated as the total purchase price, less the cost allocated to furniture, fixtures and equipment, was assigned to goodwill in the amount of $509,108.
The Company has subsequently determined that it can exploit the acquired website through its leadership in the livestock / cattle industry and IT expertise, and has determined that there are values to the intangible assets acquired. A summary of the allocation of the excess purchase price is as follows:

Integrated Management Information, Inc. Notes to Condensed Financial Statements Quarter Ended March 31, 2006 and 2005
(Unaudited)
Note 1- Basis of presentation
All Common Stock shares are presented to reflect a 3 for 2 stock split approved by the shareholders on February 14, 2006.
We reorganized our corporate structure on March 20, 2006 to change the Company's State of Incorporation from Delaware to Colorado. Common stock authorized was increased to 95,000,000 common shares, $.001 par value, from 50,000,000 shares of common stock, $.01 par value. Additionally 5,000,000 preferred shares, $.001 par value, were authorized. Our shareholders' equity accounts have been restated to reflect the change in par value.
The accompanying condensed financial statements of the Company (other than the December 31, 2005 balance sheet, which has been derived from audited financial statements) are unaudited and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. The Company has continued to follow the accounting policies set forth in the audited financial statements included here-in. In the opinion of management, the interim financial information provided herein reflects all adjustments (consisting of normal and recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the Company's financial position as of March 31, 2006, and the results of operations and cash flows for the three month period ended March 31, 2006 and 2005. The results of operations for three months ended March 31, 2006 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2006.
These condensed financial statements and footnotes should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2005, included here-in.
Restricted cash
An escrow account was created in November, 2005 for proceeds from stock sales in connection with a private offering. These funds totaling $421,664 were paid out in January 2006.
Note 2-Stock-Based compensation
Effective January 1, 2006, the Company prospectively adopted FAS 123 (R), Stock-Based Payments, and related Securities and Exchange Commission rules included in Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107. Under this method, compensation cost recognized beginning January 1, 2006 will include costs related to all share-based payments granted subsequent to December 31, 2005 based on the grant-date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of FAS 123 (R). Compensation cost for stock options granted to employees is recognized ratably over the vesting period.
Fair values for the first quarter of 2006 were estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, based on the following assumptions:
Dividend yield 0% Expected volatility 35.9% Risk-free interest rate 4.7% Expected term of options (in years)1.5-2.3 |
Dividend yield is based on the Company's historical and anticipated policy of not paying cash dividends. Expected volatility is based on the "calculated value" method set forth in FAS 123 (R) (based on historical volatilities of appropriate industry sector indices) because the Company's stock did not have historic share price data available as its stock is not publicly traded. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant for periods corresponding with the expected term of the options. The expected term of options represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding giving consideration to vesting schedules.
Compensation costs related to stock options for the quarter ended March 31, 2006 totaled $120,842, and are included in the Statement of Operations.
Prior to January 1, 2006, the Company measured compensation cost for stock-based employee compensation plans using the intrinsic value method of accounting as prescribed in Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related interpretations. For non-employee stock-based compensations, the Company recognized expense in accordance with FAS 123 and valued the equity securities based on the fair value of the security on the date of grant. For the quarter ended March 31, 2005, stock-based compensation totaled $30,000.
Note 3- Common stock
In February 2006, the Company completed the private placement offering initiated in October 2005 and issued an additional 712,500 shares of Common Stock for cash at $0.83 per share, which resulted in proceeds of $549,219 net of issuance costs of $44,531. Concurrently, the Company purchased 1,050,000 shares at $0.50 per share from two members of the Company's Board of Directors and 7,200,000 shares at $0.05 per share from the Company's founders for an aggregate purchase price of $885,000. As additional consideration for the purchase of the foregoing shares from the Company's founders, the Company granted options to purchase an aggregate of 6,000,000 shares of Common Stock to the founders. These options vest at 1,500,000 per year over a period beginning January 1, 2007 to January 1, 2010 at exercise prices of $1.67 for the first three million and $2.67 for the remaining three million.
Note 4 - Related party transactions
In the first quarter of 2006, the company recorded $1,850 in sales from a related party (father of Leann Saunders, a founding shareholder) and had an account receivable outstanding at March 31, 2006 in the amount of $1,140. There were no related party transactions in the first quarter of 2005.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
TO THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND STOCKHOLDERS OF
CATTLENETWORK.COM, INC.
I have audited the accompanying balance sheet of CattleNetwork.com, Inc. as of December 31, 2004, and the related statements of operations, stockholders' equity and cash flows for the year then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. My responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on my audits.
I conducted my audit in accordance with standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that I plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. 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. I believe that my audit provides a reasonable basis for my opinion.
In my opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of CattleNetwork.com, Inc. as of December 31, 2004 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the
Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the
accompanying financial statements, the Company has no established source of
revenue, which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going
concern. Management's plan in regard to these matters is also discussed in Note
1. These financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result
from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Note 1 - Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Organization
Cattlenetwork.com, Inc. was originally incorporated on July 17, 2001 as a Kansas corporation named Cattlefeeding.com, Inc. On September 16, 2002, the Company filed an amendment to the original articles of incorporation to change the name of the Company to Cattlenetwork.com, Inc.
The Company provides an online source of news and information on the North American cattle industry.
Basis of presentation
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which contemplate a continuation of the Company as a going concern. The Company incurred a net loss for the period July 17, 2001 through December 31, 2004 of $254,955. This condition raises substantial doubt as to the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. These financial state- ments do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts, or amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
Estimates and assumptions
In preparing financial statements, the Company uses certain estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts and disclosures. For example, estimates are used when accounting for depreciation, amortization, contingencies and asset and liability valuations. Estimates are often based on complex judgments, probabilities and assumptions that the Company believes to be reasonable but that are inherently uncertain and unpredictable. Assumptions may be incomplete or inaccurate and unanticipated events and circumstances may occur. It is also possible that other professionals, applying reasonable judgment to the same facts and circumstance, could develop and support a range of alternative estimated amounts. The Company is also subject to risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ from estimated amounts, such as changes in the administrative directives, rules and regulations of federal, state and local regulatory agencies.
Revenue recognition
Revenues are recognized only when realized / realizable and earned in accordance with generally acceptable accounting principles.
Cash and cash equivalents
All cash and short-term investments with original maturities of three months or less are considered cash and cash equivalents, since they are readily convertible to cash. These short-term investments are stated at cost, which approximates fair value.
Research and development and software development costs
Research and development costs are charged to operations as incurred. SFAS No. 86, "Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software to Be Sold, Leased or Otherwise Marketed," requires the capitalization of certain computer software development costs incurred upon the establishment of technological feasibility. The Company's current process for developing software is essentially completed concurrently with the establishment of technological feasibility; therefore, no costs have been capitalized in 2004.
Property and equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost. Costs of replacements and major improvements are capitalized, and maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred. Depreciation expense is provided primarily by the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets.
Amortization of intangible assets, depreciation and certain long-lived assets
The Company reviews all of its long-lived assets, including goodwill and other intangible assets, for impairment at least annually and whenever events or circumstances present an indication of impairment. When necessary, the Company records changes for impairments of long-lived assets for the amount by which the present value of future cash flows, or some other fair value measure, is less than the carrying value of these assets.
Advertising expenses
Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. The total advertising expenses included in the Statement of Operations for the year ended December 31, 2004 was $21,810.
Fair value of financial instruments
For certain of the Company's financial instruments, including cash, accounts payable and accrued interest, the carrying amounts approximate fair value due to their short maturities. The amounts shown for notes payable also approximate fair value because current interest rates and terms offered to the Company for similar debt are substantially the same.
Income (Loss) per share
In accordance with SFAS No. 128, "Earnings Per Share," the basic income / (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income / (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding.
Concentration of credit risk
Financial instruments, which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk, consist of cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable. The Company places its cash with high quality financial institutions and at times may exceed the FDIC $100,000 insurance limit. The Company extends credit based on an evaluation of the customer's financial condition, generally without collateral. Exposure to losses on receivables is principally dependent on each customer's financial condition. The Company monitors its exposure for credit losses and maintains allowances for anticipated losses, as required. Accounts are "written-off" when deemed uncollectible.
Note 2 - Property and equipment
The major categories of property and equipment are as follows at December 31, 2004:
Machinery and equipment $ 4,895
Furniture and office equipment 2,452
-------------
7,347
Less - Accumulated depreciation (3,901)
-------------
Net property and equipment $ 3,446
=============
|
Depreciation expense for the year ended December 31, 2004 was $2,710.
Note 3 - Income taxes
Deferred tax assets and liabilities have been determined based upon the differences between the financial statement amounts and the tax basis of assets and liabilities as measured by enacted tax rates expected to be in effect when these differences are expected to reverse. In assessing the reliability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the realization of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers past history, the scheduled reversal of taxable temporary differences, projected future taxable income, and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. As of December 31, 2004, management believes it is more likely than not that the Company's net deferred tax asset will not be realized and accordingly has recorded a valuation allowance against the deferred tax assets.
Significant components of the Company's deferred income tax assets and liabilities are as follows:
Deferred income tax asset $ 89,003
Valuation allowance $ (89,003)
The Company has available as of December 31, 2004 for federal income tax
|
purposes, unused net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $216,561 which may be applied against future taxable income and expire in years beginning in 2016. Utilization of net operating losses may be limited in the event of an ownership change under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code.
Note 4 - Common Stock
As of December 31, 2004, the Company had 10,000 authorized shares of $1.00 par value Common Stock with 1,997 shares outstanding.
Note 5 - Net earnings (loss) per share
Net loss per share is calculated in accordance with the Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128 (SOFAS No. 128), "Earnings per Share". Basic net loss per share is based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding.
Note 6 - Related party transactions
In 2004, the Company recorded $125,981 in sales from related parties, the stockholders of the Company. The sales occurred in the normal course of business.
Note 7 - Commitments
The Company leases office space for use in its operations. Rental expense was $13,500 for the year ended December 31, 2004. The current lease was for the twelve month period beginning January 1, 2004 and ending December 31, 2004. In the normal course of business, leases that expire are generally replaced by leases on similar property.
Note 8 - Subsequent events On May 12, 2005, the Company negotiated with Integrated Management Information, Inc. (IMI) to sell all of the personal property and intellectual property and the internet domain name CattleNetwork.com. The sale price was $500,000, |
consisting of cash in the amount of $150,000 and a note payable in the amount of $350,000 bearing interest at 5% with monthly payments through June 12, 2008. As additional compensation the Company received options to purchase 150,000 shares of Integrated Management Information, Inc. common stock exercisable at $.91 per share for a three year period from the closing date.
IMI will use the internet site - CattleNetwork.com to market its products and expand its reach and profile in the livestock / cattle industry.
Note 9 - Recent accounting pronouncements
In March, 2004, the FASB approved the consensus reached on the Emerging Issues Task Forces (EITF) Issue No. 03-1, "The Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment and Its Application to Certain Investments." The objective of this Issue is to provide guidance for identifying impaired investments. EITF 03-1 also provides new disclosure requirements for investments which are deemed to be temporarily impaired. In September 2004, the FASB issued a FASB Staff Position (FSP) EITF 03-1-1 that delays the effective date of the measurement and recognition are effective only for annual periods ending after June15, 2004. The Company has evaluated the impact of the adoption of the disclosure requirements of EITF 03-1 and does not believe it will have an impact to the Company's overall combined results of operations or combined financial position. Once the FASB reaches a final decision on the measurement and recognition provisions, the Company will evaluate the impact of the adoption of EITF 03-1.
In November 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 151 "Inventory Costs", an amendment of ARB No. 43, Chapter 4 ("SFAS No. 151"). The amendments made by SFAS 151 clarify that abnormal amount of idle facility expense, freight, handling costs, and wasted materials (spoilage) should be recognized as current-period charges and require the allocation of fixed production overheads to inventory based on the normal capacity of the production facilities. The guidance is effective for inventory costs incurred during fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005. Earlier application is permitted for inventory costs incurred during fiscal years beginning after November 23, 2004. The Company has evaluated the impact of the adoption of SFAS 151, and does not believe the impact will be significant to the Company's overall results of operations or financial position.
In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 153, "Exchanges of Nonmonetary Asset, an amendment of APB Opinion No. 29, Accounting for Nonmonetary Transactions." The amendments made by SFAS 153 are based on the principle that exchanges of nonmonetary assets should be measured based on the fair value of the assets exchanged. Further, the amendments eliminate the narrow exception for nonmonetary exchanges of similar productive assets and replace it with a broader exception for exchanges of nonmonetary assets that do not have commercial substance. Previously, Opinion 29 required that the accounting for an exchange of a productive asset for a similar productive asset or an equivalent interest in the same or similar productive asset should be based on the recorded amount of the asset relinquished. Opinion 29 provided an exception to its basis measurement principle (fair value) for exchanges of similar productive assets. That exception required that some nonmonetary exchanges, although commercially substantive, to be recorded on a carryover basis. By focusing the exception on exchanges that lack commercial substance, the FASB believes SFAS No. 153 is effective for nonmonetary asset exchanges occurring in fiscal periods beginning after June 15, 2005. Earlier application is permitted for nonmonetary asset exchanges occurring in fiscal periods beginning after the date of issuance. The provisions of SFAS No. 153 shall be applied prospectively. The Company has evaluated the impact of the adoption of SFAS 153, and does not believe there will be any impact to the Company, as no transactions of this type are currently contemplated.
In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004), "Share-Based Payment" ("SFAS 123R"). SFAS 123R will provide investors and other users of financial statements with more complete and neutral financial information by requiring that the compensation costs relating to share-based payment transactions be recognized in financial statements. That cost will be measured based on the fair value of the equity or liability instruments issued. SFAS 123R covers a wide range of share-based compensation arrangements including share options, restricted share plans, performance-based awards, share appreciation rights and employee share purchase plans. SFAS 123R replaces SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation", and supercedes APB Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees". SFAS 123, as originally issued in 1995, established as preferable a fair-value-based method of accounting for share-based payment transactions with employees. However, that statement permitted entities the option of continuing to apply the guidance in Opinion 25, as long as the footnotes to financial statements disclosed what net income would have been had the preferable fair-value based method been used. Public entities (other than those filing as small business issuers) will be required to apply SFAS 123R as of the first interim or annual reporting period that begins after June 15, 2005. The Company has evaluated the impact of the adoption of SFAS 123R and does not believe the impact could be significant to the Company's overall results of operations.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to our directors, officers or persons in control pursuant to the foregoing provisions or otherwise, we have been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.
Our charter limits the liability of current and former directors for monetary damages if they have acted in good faith and conformed to a standard of reasonable care. Furthermore, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in our charter or bylaws, Section 7 of the Colorado Revised Statutes Act limits the liability of directors for monetary damages for any statement, vote, decision or failure to act relating to management or policy of the corporation unless he or she breached or failed to perform her duties as a director, and the breach or failure constitutes: (a) a violation of criminal law, unless the director had reasonable cause to believe the conduct was lawful or had no reasonable cause to believe it was unlawful; (b) a transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit; (c) an unlawful distribution; (d) in a proceeding by or in the right of the corporation or one or more of our shareholders, conscious disregard for our best interests or willful misconduct; or (e) in a proceeding brought by someone other than the corporation or one or more of our shareholders, recklessness or an act or omission committed in bad faith, with malicious purpose, or in a manner exhibiting willful disregard of human rights, safety or property.
We have purchased insurance with respect to, among other things, the liabilities that may arise under the statutory provisions referred to above. Our directors and officers are also insured against certain liabilities, including certain liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933, which might be incurred by them in such capacities and against which they are not indemnified by us.

Item 28. Undertakings.
(a) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes to:
(1) File, during any period in which it offers or sells securities , a post-effective amendment to this registration statement to:
(i) Include any prospectus required by section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;
(ii) Reflect in the prospectus any facts or events which, individually or together, represent a fundamental change in the information in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective registration statement; and
(iii) Include any additional or changed material information on the plan of distribution.
(2) For determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933, treat each post-effective amendment as a new registration statement of the securities offered, and the offering of the securities at that time to be the initial bona fide offering.
(3) File a post-effective amendment to remove from registration any of the securities that remain unsold at the end of the offering.
(4) For determining liability of the undersigned small business issuer under the Securities Act to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities, the undersigned small business issuer undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned small business issuer pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned small business issuer will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:
(i) Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned small business issuer relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424.
(ii) Any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned small business issuer or used or referred to by the undersigned small business issuer;
(iii) The portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned small business issuer or its securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned small business issuer; and
(iv) Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned small business issuer to the purchaser.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Act") may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the small business issuer pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the small business issuer has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable."
In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the small business issuer of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the small business issuer in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the small business issuer will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropritate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
In accordance with the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, the registrant certifies that it has reasonable grounds to believe that it meets all of the requirements of filing a registration statement on Form SB-2 and authorized this registration statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, in Platte City, State of Missouri, on June 20, 2006.

None of the options issued to employees pursuant to the Plan may constitute incentive stock options within the meaning of Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code. Options issued pursuant to the Plan shall constitute non-qualified options.
I.2 Purpose. The purpose of this Plan is to provide a means of compensation to John and Leanne Saunders for their willingness to have 4,800,000 shares of their common stock in the company redeemed at $0.075 per share or well below its fair value.

TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT OR SERVICES
IX.1 Death. If an Optionee's employment in the case of an Employee, or provision of services as a Consultant in the case of a Consultant, terminates by reason of death, the Option may thereafter be exercised at any time prior to the expiration date of the Option or within 12 months after the date of such death, whichever period is the shorter, by the person or persons entitled to do so under the Optionee's will or, if the Optionee shall fail to make a testamentary disposition of an Option or shall die intestate, the Optionee's legal representative or representatives. The Option shall be exercisable only to the extent that such Option was exercisable as of the date of death.
IX.2 Termination other than for Cause or Due to Death. In the event of an Optionee's termination of employment in the case of an Employee, or termination of the provision of services as a Consultant in the case of a Consultant, other than by reason of death, the Optionee may exercise such portion of his Option as was exercisable by him at the date of such termination (the "Termination Date") at any time within three months of the Termination Date; provided, however, that where the Optionee is an Employee, and is terminated due to disability within the meaning of Code ss. 422, he may exercise such portion of his Option as was exercisable by him on his Termination Date within one year of his Termination Date. In any event, the Option cannot be exercised after the expiration of the term of the Option. Options not exercised within the applicable period specified above shall terminate.
IX.3 Termination for Cause. In the event of an Optionee's termination of employment in the case of an Employee, or termination of the provision of services as a Consultant in the case of a Consultant, which termination is by the Company or a Subsidiary Corporation for cause, any Option or Options held by him under the Plan, to the extent not exercised before such termination, shall terminate upon notice of termination for cause.
ARTICLE X
RIGHTS OF OPTIONEES
X.1 Service. Nothing in this Plan shall interfere with or limit in any way the right of the Company or a Subsidiary Corporation to terminate any Employee's employment, or any Consultant's services, at any time, nor confer upon any Employee any right to continue in the employ of the Company or a Subsidiary Corporation, or upon any Consultant any right to continue to provide services to the Company or a Subsidiary Corporation.
X.2 Non-transferability. All Options granted under this Plan shall be nontransferable by the Optionee, other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution, and shall be exercisable during the Optionee's lifetime only by the Optionee.
ARTICLE XI
OPTIONEE-EMPLOYEE'S TRANSFER
OR LEAVE OF ABSENCE
XI.1 Optionee-Employee's Transfer or Leave of Absence. For purposes of this Plan:
(a) A transfer of an Optionee who is an Employee from the Company to a Subsidiary Corporation or Parent Corporation, or from one such Corporation to another, or
(b) A leave of absence for such an Optionee which is duly authorized in writing by the Company or a Subsidiary Corporation shall not be deemed a termination of employment. However, under no circumstances may an Optioned exercise an Option during any leave of absence, unless authorized by the Board.
ARTICLE XII
AMENDMENT, MODIFICATION, AND
TERMINATION OF THE PLAN
XII.1 Amendment, Modification, and Termination of the Plan.
(a) The Board may at any time terminate, and from time to time may amend or modify the Plan, provided, however, that no such action of the Board, without approval of the shareholders, may:
(i) increase the total amount of Stock which may be purchased through Options granted under the Plan, except as provided in Article V;
(ii) change the class of Employees or Consultants eligible to receive Options;
(b) No amendment, modification, or termination of the Plan shall in any manner adversely affect any outstanding Option under the Plan without the consent of the Optionee holding the Option.
ARTICLE XIII ACQUISITION,
MERGER OR LIQUIDATION
XIII.1Acquisition.
(a) In the event that an Acquisition occurs with respect to the Company, the Company shall have the option, but not the obligation, to cancel Options outstanding as of the effective date of Acquisition, whether or not such Options are then exercisable, in return for payment to the Optionees of an amount equal to a reasonable estimate of an amount (hereinafter the "Spread") equal to the difference between the net amount per share payable in the Acquisition or as a result of the Acquisition, less the exercise price of the Option. In estimating the Spread, appropriate adjustments to give effect to the existence of the Options shall be made, such as deeming the Options to have been exercised, with the Company receiving the exercise price payable thereunder, and treating the shares receivable upon exercise of the Options as being outstanding in determining the net amount per share.
(b) For purposes of this section, an "Acquisition" shall mean any transaction in which substantially all of the Company's assets are acquired or in which a controlling amount of the Company's outstanding shares are acquired, in each case by a single person or entity or an affiliated group of persons and entities. For purposes of this section, a controlling amount shall mean more than 50% of the issued and outstanding shares of stock of the Company. The Company shall have such an option regardless of how the Acquisition is effectuated, whether by direct purchase, through a merger or similar corporate transaction, or otherwise. In cases where the acquisition consists of the acquisition of assets of the Company, the net amount per share shall be calculated on the basis of the net amount receivable with respect to shares upon a distribution and liquidation by the Company after giving effect to expenses and charges, including but not limited to taxes, payable by the Company before the liquidation can be completed.
(c) Where the Company does not exercise its option under this Section XIII.1 the remaining provisions of this Article XIII shall apply, to the extent applicable.
XIII.2Merger or Consolidation. Subject to any required action by the shareholders, if the Company shall be the surviving corporation in any merger or consolidation, any Option granted hereunder shall pertain to and apply to the securities to which a holder of the number of shares of Stock subject to the Option would have been entitled in such merger or consolidation.
XIII.3Other Transactions. A dissolution or a liquidation of the Company or a merger and consolidation in which the Company is not the surviving corporation shall cause every Option outstanding hereunder to terminate as of the effective date of such dissolution, liquidation, merger or consolidation. However, the Optionee either (i) shall be offered a firm commitment whereby the resulting or surviving corporation in a merger or consolidation will tender to the Optionee an option (the "Substitute Option") to purchase its shares on terms and conditions both as to number of shares and otherwise, which will substantially preserve to the Optionee the rights and benefits of the Option outstanding hereunder granted by the Company, or (ii) shall have the right immediately prior to such dissolution, liquidation, merger, or consolidation to exercise any unexercised Options whether or not then exercisable, subject to the provisions of this Plan. The Board shall have absolute and uncontrolled discretion to determine whether the Optionee has been offered a firm commitment and whether the tendered Substitute Option will substantially preserve to the Optionee the rights and benefits of the Option outstanding hereunder. In any event, any Substitute Option for an Incentive Stock Option shall comply with the requirements of Code Section 424(a).
ARTICLE XIV
SECURITIES REGISTRATION
XIV.1 Securities Registration. In the event that the Company shall deem it necessary or desirable to register under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or any other applicable statute, any Options or any Stock with respect to which an Option may be or shall have been granted or exercised, or to qualify any such Options or Stock under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or any other statute, then the Optionee shall cooperate with the Company and take such action as is necessary to permit registration or qualification of such Options or Stock.
XIV.2 Representations. Unless the Company has determined that the following
representation is unnecessary, each person exercising an Option under the Plan
may be required by the Company, as a condition to the issuance of the shares
pursuant to exercise of the Option, to make a representation in writing (i) that
he is acquiring such shares for his own account for investment and not with a
view to, or for sale in connection with, the distribution of any part thereof,
(ii) that before any transfer in connection with the resale of such shares, he
will obtain the written opinion of counsel for the Company, or other counsel
acceptable to the Company, that such shares may be transferred. The Company may
also require that the certificates representing such shares contain legends
reflecting the foregoing.
ARTICLE XV
TAX WITHHOLDING
XV.1 Tax Withholding. Whenever shares of Stock are to be issued in satisfaction of Options exercised under this Plan, the Company shall have the power to require the recipient of the Stock to remit to the Company an amount sufficient to satisfy federal, state, and local withholding tax requirements.
ARTICLE XVI
INDEMNIFICATION
XVI.1 Indemnification. To the extent permitted by law, each person who is or shall have been a member of the Board shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Company against and from any loss, cost, liability, or expense that may be imposed upon or reasonably incurred by him in connection with or resulting from any claim, action, suit, or proceeding to which he may be a party or in which he may be involved by reason of any action taken or failure to act under the Plan and against and from any and all amounts paid by him in settlement thereof, with the Company's approval, or paid by him in satisfaction of judgment in any such action, suit, or proceeding against him, provided he shall give the Company an opportunity, at its own expense, to handle and defend the same before he undertakes to handle and defend it on his own behalf. The foregoing right of indemnification shall not be exclusive of any other rights of indemnification to which such persons may be entitled under the Company's articles of incorporation or bylaws, as a matter of law, or otherwise, or any power that the Company or any Subsidiary Corporation may have to indemnify them or hold them harmless.
ARTICLE XVII
REQUIREMENTS OF LAW
XVII.1Requirements of Law. The granting of Options and the issuance of shares of Stock upon the exercise of an Option shall be subject to all applicable laws, rules, and regulations, and to such approvals by any governmental agencies or national securities exchanges as may be required.

You have requested that we furnished you our legal opinion with respect to the legality of the following described securities of Integrated Management Information, Inc. (the "Company") covered by a Form SB-2 Registration Statement, (the "Registration Statement"), initially filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (File No. 333-133624) by the Company on April 27, 2006 for the purpose of registering such securities under the Securities Act of 1933:
1. 17,867,515 shares of common stock, $.001 par value currently held by existing shareholders being registred by the Company (the "Registered Securities").
In connection with this opinion, we have examined the corporate records of the Company, including the Company's Amended Articles of Incorporation, Bylaws, and the Minutes of its Board of Directors and Shareholders meetings, the Registration Statement, and such other documents and records as we deemed relevant in order to render this opinion. Based on the foregoing, it is our opinion that, after the Registration Statement becomes effective and the Shares have been issued and delivered as described therein, the Shares will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.
In giving the opinions expressed above, we advise that our opinions herein are with respect to federal law and the law of the States of Nevada and Texas only and that, to the extent such opinions are derived from laws of other jurisdictions, such statements are based upon an examination of relevant authorities and are believed to be correct, but we have obtained no legal opinions as to such matters from attorneys licensed to practice in such other jurisdictions.
We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion with the Securities and Exchange Commission as an exhibit to the Registration Statement and further consent to statements made therein regarding our firm and use of our name under the heading "Legal Matters" in the Prospectus constituting a part of such Registration Statement.
Sincerely,
VANDERKAM & ASSOCIATES
