Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Note 2 - Acquisitions
Strategic Security Solutions International Ltd., page F-15
1. We note in your response to comment 2 that most of the
contracts
acquired in connection with the SSSI acquisition were for less
than a
year, and were therefore assigned no value apart from goodwill.
However, it appears that certain customer related intangibles may
have existed at the time of purchase based upon SSSI`s
relationship
with foreign government agencies. Please advise us what
consideration, if any, you gave to EITF 02-17 when considering the
value of SSSI customer related intangibles that may extend past
the
life of the associated contract. If you determine that customer
intangibles existed at the time of the SSSI acquisition, please
quantify for us the fair value of these intangibles and revise
your
financial statements as necessary.
* * * *
As appropriate, please respond to these comments within 10
business days or tell us when you will provide us with a response.
Please furnish a cover letter with your proposed revisions that
keys
your response to our comment and provides any requested
supplemental
information. Detailed cover letters greatly facilitate our
review.
Please understand that we may have additional comments after
reviewing your response to our comment.
We urge all persons who are responsible for the accuracy and
adequacy of the disclosure in the filing to be certain that the
filing includes all information required under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 and that they have provided all information
investors require for an informed decision. Since the company and
its management are in possession of all facts relating to a
company`s
disclosure, they are responsible for the accuracy and adequacy of
the
disclosures they have made.
In connection with responding to our comments, please
provide,
in writing, a statement from the company acknowledging that
* the company is responsible for the adequacy and accuracy of the
disclosure in the filings;
* staff comments or changes to disclosure in response to staff
comments do not foreclose the Commission from taking any action
with
respect to the filings; and
* the company may not assert staff comments as a defense in any
proceeding initiated by the Commission or any person under the
federal securities laws of the United States.
In addition, please be advised that the Division of
Enforcement
has access to all information you provide to the staff of the
Division of Corporation Finance in our review of your filings or
in
response to our comments on your filings.
You may contact Kristi Beshears at (202) 551-3429 or me at
(202) 551-3486 if you have questions.
Sincerely,
Daniel L. Gordon
Branch Chief
