Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(unaudited)
 
 
1. BASIS OF PRESENATION

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements for the three and nine month periods ended September 29, 2007 and 2006 have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the  Securities and Exchange Commission for Form 10-QSB. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in  the United States of America for complete financial statements.

The unaudited financial information included in this report includes all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to reflect a fair statement of the results for the interim periods. The operations for the three and nine month periods ended September 29, 2007 and September 30, 2006 are not necessarily indicative of the results of the full fiscal year.

The condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Registrant's December 31, 2006 Annual Report on Form 10-KSB and subsequent filings on Form 8-K.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Reclassifications - Certain minor reclassifications in prior period amounts have been made to conform to the current period presentation.

Stock Based Compensation - In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No.123 (revised 2004), "Share-Based Payment". SFAS 123(R) will provide investors and other users of financial statements with more complete and neutral financial information by requiring that the compensation cost 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 123(R) 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 123(R) replaces FASB Statement 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) were required to apply SFAS 123(R) as of the first interim or annual reporting period that begins after June 15, 2005. For public entities that file as small business issuers SFAS 123(R) is applicable as of the beginning of the first interim or annual reporting period that begins after December 15, 2005.

Prior to January 1, 2006, the Company accounted for Stock Options and Stock Based Compensation under the recognition and measurement provisions of APB Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees”, and related Interpretations, as permitted by FASB Statement No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation”.  Effective January 1, 2006, the Company adopted the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123(R), Share-Based Payment, using the modified-prospective-transition method. Under that transition method, compensation cost for all share-based payments granted prior to, but not yet vested as of January 1, 2006 are based on (a) the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the original provisions of SFAS No. 123, and (b) compensation cost for all share-based payments granted subsequent to January 1, 2006 are based on the grant-date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No.123(R).  Results for prior periods have not been restated.

2007 Long Term Incentive Plan

On July 1, 2007 the Company established a Long Term Incentive (the “2007 Incentive Plan”) plan for the purposes of advancing the interests of the Company and our shareholders by providing incentives to certain of our employees and other key individuals who perform services for us, including those who contribute significantly to the strategic and long-term performance objectives and growth of the Company.  The 2007 Incentive Plan is administered by a committee (the “Committee”) appointed by the Board of Directors.  Currently, the Committee is comprised of all members of the Board of Directors acting as a group.  The Committee has the power to interpret the 2007 Incentive Plan and to prescribe rules, regulations and procedures in connection with the operations of the 2007 Incentive Plan.  The Committee may delegate administrative responsibilities under the 2007 Incentive Plan to any one or more of its members or other persons, except as may otherwise be required under applicable law or listing standards for an exchange on which the Company’s common stock may be listed.  The 2007 Incentive Plan provides for the granting of several types of awards, including stock options, performance grants and other awards deemed by the Committee to be consistent with the purposes of the 2007 Incentive Plan.  Awards may be granted alone, or in conjunction with one or more other awards, as determined by the Committee.

F-5



The 2007 Incentive Plan was effective as of July 1, 2007, and was approved by the Company’s board of directors.  The Company’s shareholders have not voted on approval of the 2007 Incentive Plan.  A maximum of ONE MILLION EIGHT HUNDRED THOUSAND (1,800,000) shares of common stock has been authorized to be issued under the 2007 Incentive Plan in connection with the grant of awards, subject to adjustment for corporate transactions, including, without limitation, any stock dividend, forward stock split, reverse stock split, merger or recapitalization.  Of this amount, no more than ONE MILLION (1,000,000) shares of common stock may be issued as incentive stock options.  Common stock issued under the 2007 Incentive Plan may be either newly issued shares, treasury shares, reacquired shares or any combination thereof.  If common stock issued as restricted stock, restricted stock units or otherwise subject to repurchase or forfeiture rights is reacquired by us pursuant to such rights, or if any award is cancelled, terminates, or expires unexercised, the common stock which would otherwise have been issuable pursuant to such awards will be available for issuance under new awards.     All awards under the 2007 Incentive Plan shall be granted within 10 years of the date the plan was adopted.

The Committee has exclusive discretion to select to whom awards will be granted; to determine the type, size, terms and conditions of each award; to modify or waive, within certain limits, the terms and conditions of any award; to determine the time when awards will be granted; to establish performance objectives; to prescribe the form of documents representing awards under the 2007 Incentive Plan; and to make all other determinations which it deems necessary, advisable or desirable in the interpretation and administration of the 2007 Incentive Plan.  At the discretion of the Committee, awards may be made under the 2007 Incentive Plan in assumption of, or in substitution for, outstanding awards previously granted by the Company, any predecessor or a company acquired by the Company or with which it combines.  The Committee has the authority to administer and interpret the 2007 Incentive Plan, and its decisions are final, conclusive and binding.  We anticipate that all of our employees and directors will be eligible to participate in the 2007 Incentive Plan.

On July 1, 2007 pursuant to the Long Term Incentive Plan the Company awarded members of the board of directors 350,000 stock options with an exercise price of $1.14 and a term of 10 years.  Additionally, on September 7, 2007 the Company awarded members of the board of directors 350,000 stock options with an exercise price of $1.09 and a term of 10 years. All of the options issued were fully vested on the grant date.  The Company has recognized $119,903 of expense related to issuances in the Consolidated Statement of Operations for the three and nine month periods ended September 29, 2007.

Determining Fair-Value

 
The Company uses the Black-Scholes option valuation model to determine the fair value of stock options and employee stock purchase plan shares. The determination of the fair value of share-based payment awards on the date of grant using an option-valuation model is affected by the Company’s stock price as well as assumptions regarding a number of complex variables. These variables include the Company’s expected stock price volatility over the term of the awards, projected employee stock option exercise behavior, expected risk-free interest rate and expected dividends.
 
The Company estimates the expected term and volatility of options granted based on values derived from its industry peer group. Our decision to use these measures of expected term and volatility was based upon the lack of availability of actively traded options in the Company’s own common stock and the Company’s assessment that the measure of volatility used is more representative of future stock price trends than the historical volatility of the Company’s common stock. The Company bases the risk-free interest rate for option valuation on Constant Maturity Rates provided by the U.S. Treasury with remaining terms similar to the expected term of the options. The Company does not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future and therefore uses an expected dividend yield of zero in the option valuation model. In addition, SFAS No. 123(R) requires forfeitures of share-based awards to be estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. As this is the Company’s initial issuance and no historical data exists to estimate pre-vesting option forfeitures the Company has recorded stock-based compensation expense for the all the awards vested. The Company uses the straight-line attribution as its expensing method of the value of share-based compensation for options and awards.
 
Under SFAS No. 123(R) Deer Valley uses the Black-Scholes option valuation model to estimate the fair value of the Company’s option awards. The key assumptions used in the model during the three months ended September 29, 2007 are provided below:

Earning (Loss) Per Share - The Company uses SFAS No. 128, “Earnings Per Share” for calculating the basic and diluted loss per share. Basic income/(loss) per share is computed by dividing net income/(loss) and net income/(loss) attributable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted income/(loss) per share is computed similar to basic loss per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential shares had been issued and if the additional shares were dilutive. Common equivalent shares are excluded from the computation of net loss per share if they would be anti-dilutive.

For the periods ended September 29, 2007 diluted weighted average shares outstanding includes all of the Company’s dilutive common stock equivalent shares.  The Company’s dilutive common stock equivalent shares as of September 30, 2007 include all of the Convertible Preferred shares and any incremental shares, as defined by SFAS No. 128, “Earnings Per Share”, associated with the Company’s Class C and D outstanding warrants and stock options.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

FASB Interpretation No 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes -- an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (“FIN 48”), was issued in July 2006. This interpretation clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an entity's financial statements in accordance with SFAS No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes.” It prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for financial statement disclosure of tax positions taken, or expected to be taken, on a tax return. The Company will be required to adopt FIN 48 in the first quarter of fiscal 2008. Management is currently evaluating the requirements of FIN 48 and has not yet determined the impact on the financial statements.
 
In September 2006, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 108 (“SAB No. 108”), Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements When Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements. SAB No. 108 provides guidance to registrants for assessing materiality. SAB No. 108 states that registrants should use both a balance sheet approach and income statement approach when quantifying and evaluating the materiality of a misstatement. SAB No. 108 also provides guidance on correcting errors under the dual approach as well as transition guidance for correcting previously immaterial errors that are now considered material. We adopted SAB No. 108 as of January 1, 2007 without any impact on our financial statements.
 
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurement” (“SFAS 157”), which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about assets and liabilities measured at fair value. The Company will be required to adopt SFAS 157 in the first quarter of fiscal 2009. Management is currently evaluating the requirements of SFAS 157 and has not yet determined the impact on the financial statements.
 
In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. SFAS No. 159 permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. SFAS No. 159 will be effective at the beginning of fiscal year 2008.  We are presently evaluating the impact of the adoption of SFAS No. 159 on our results of operations and financial position.

5. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Litigation- The  Company  in  the  normal  course  of  business  is  subject  to  claims and litigation.  Management  of  the  Company  is  of  the  opinion  that, based  on information available, such  legal matters will not ultimately have a material adverse effect on the financial position or results of operation of the Company.

Reserve for Repurchase Commitments - Deer Valley Homebuilders, Inc. (“DVH”) is contingently liable under the terms of repurchase agreements with financial institutions providing inventory financing for retailers of DVH’s products.  These arrangements, which are customary in the industry, provide for the repurchase of products sold to retailers in the event of default by the retailer.  The risk of loss under these agreements is spread over numerous retailers.  The price DVH is obligated to pay generally declines over the period of the agreement (typically 18 to 24 months) and the risk of loss is further reduced by the sale value of repurchased homes.  The maximum amount for which the Company is contingently liable under repurchase agreements is approximately $18,539,000 at September 29, 2007.  DVH to date has not experienced significant losses under these agreements, and management does not expect any future losses to have a material effect on the accompanying financial statements.

Earnout Agreement -On January 18, 2006, the Company's wholly-owned subsidiary, DeerValley Acquisitions Corp. (dissolved on July 1, 2006), entered into an Earnout Agreement (the "Earnout Agreement"), between Deer Valley Homebuilders, Inc., DeerValley Acquisitions Corp., and the former owners of Deer Valley Homebuilders, Inc.  In connection with the Earnout Agreement additional payments may be paid to the former owners of Deer Valley Homebuilders, Inc. as an earnout based upon the Net Income Before Taxes of Deer Valley Homebuilders, Inc. during the next five (5) years, up to a maximum of $6,000,000.  In any given year during the term of the Earnout Agreement, 50% of the pre-tax profit exceeding $1,000,000 per year will be accrued and become distributable to the prior shareholders.  During the period ending December 31, 2006 the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Deer Valley Homebuilders, Inc., had pre-tax profit in the amount of $4,936,287, of which $3,936,287 was above the Company's earnout threshold of $1,000,000.  The Company accrued 50% of the amount in excess of earnout threshold in the amount of $1,968,143.

On April 12, 2007 the Company made a payment of $1,232,275 pursuant to the Earnout Agreement.  The payment represented the current portion due under the Earnout Agreement.

For the nine month period ending September 29, 2007, Deer Valley Homebuilders, Inc. had a pre-tax profit in the amount of $2,569,362, of which $1,569,362 was above the Company’s earnout threshold of $1,000,000.  The Company accrued 50%, or $784,681, of the amount in excess of earnout threshold. The maximum remaining potential accrual under the Earnout Agreement is $2,750,769.

 Loans and Letter of Credit - On May 26, 2006, DVH entered into a Loan Agreement with Fifth Third Bank (the “Lender”) providing for a loan of Two Million and No/100 Dollars ($2,000,000) (the "Loan") evidenced by a promissory note and secured by a first mortgage on DVH’s properties in Guin, Alabama and Sulligent, Alabama, including the structures and fixtures located thereon, as well as DVH’s interest in any lease thereof. The purpose of the loan is to pay off an existing loan from another bank secured by the Guin property and to reduce the outstanding balance on DVH’s revolving credit facility with the Lender.  The net effect of the reduction in the revolving credit balance is to increase the credit available to the Company for working capital under its revolving facility.  The Loan has a term from May 26, 2006 through June 1, 2011 and has a variable interest rate at 2.25% above LIBOR.  There is no prepayment penalty.  Future advances are available under the Loan Agreement, subject to approval by the Lender.  Also on May 26, 2006, the Company and DVA guaranteed the Loan.  Should Deer Valley default, thereby triggering acceleration of the Loan, the Company would become liable for payment of the Loan.

On April 11, 2007, Deer Valley Corporation entered into a new Loan and Security Agreement providing for a revolving line of credit in an amount not to exceed Two Million Five Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($2,500,000) (the "DV Loan Agreement") evidenced by a revolving credit note and secured by accounts receivable, inventory, equipment and all other tangible and intangible personal property of Deer Valley Corporation and DVH. The purpose of the DV Loan Agreement is to provide a standby source of working capital, letters of credit required by the terms of certain repurchase agreements and performance bonds entered into in the normal course of the Company’s business, and to provide financing for potential acquisition(s) of new manufacturing facilities or subsidiaries. The DV Loan Agreement has a one year term and has a variable interest rate at 2.60% above LIBOR. Upon issuance of a letter of credit, Deer Valley Corporation is charged a letter of credit fee equal to 1.00% of the face amount of the letter of credit. The DV Loan Agreement provides for conditions to meet prior to each advance, including financial ratios.

In addition to the above, on April 11, 2007, DVH renewed its existing Loan and Security Agreement providing for a revolving line of credit in an amount not to exceed Two Million Five Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($2,500,000) (the "DVH Loan agreement") evidenced by a revolving credit note and secured by accounts receivable, inventory, equipment and all other tangible and intangible personal property of DVH and Deer Valley Corporation. The purpose of the DVH Loan is to provide standby working capital and letters of credit required by the terms of certain repurchase agreements and performance bonds entered into in the normal course of DVH’s business. The DVH Loan Agreement has a one year term and has a variable interest rate at 2.60% above LIBOR. Upon issuance of a letter of credit, DVH is charged a letter of credit fee equal to 1.00% of the face amount of the letter of credit. The DVH Loan provides for conditions to meet prior to each advance, including financial ratios.

On August 10, 2007, Deer Valley Homebuilders, Inc. (“DVH”) entered into a Revolving Bridge Loan and Security Agreement with Fifth Third Bank, providing for a line of credit in an amount not to exceed Five Million and No/100 Dollars ($5,000,000), evidenced by a revolving credit note and secured by accounts receivable, inventory, equipment and all other tangible and intangible personal property of DVH. The purpose of the new facility is to provide a standby source of working capital for fulfillment of one or more contracts with the State of Mississippi to construct housing units under the “Mississippi Alternative Pilot Program.” This facility has a six month term and has a variable interest rate at 2.50% above LIBOR.  The Loan and Security Agreement permits acceleration upon certain payment and covenant defaults.

In addition to the revolving line of credit described in the preceding paragraph, DVH, during its normal course of business, is required to issue irrevocable standby letters of credit in the favor of independent third party beneficiaries to cover obligations under repurchase agreements. As of September 30, 2007, no amounts had been drawn on the above irrevocable letters of credit by the beneficiaries.

Dividends Payable-As of September 29, 2007 the total accrued dividend payable to Series A Preferred shareholders was $89,578.

6. EQUITY TRANSACTIONS

Series A Convertible Preferred Stock - During the three month period ending September 29, 2007 certain shareholders converted 1,500 shares of Series A Preferred stock, par value $15,000, into 20,000 shares of the Company’s common stock.

Common Stock Dividends - On August 24, 2007, the Company issued 213,875 shares of the Company’s common stock to Series A Preferred shareholders as payment for $221,239 of dividends.

Series E Convertible Preferred exchange - On July 23, 2007, in exchange for 250,000 shares of outstanding registered common stock, the Company issued 250,000 shares of Series E Convertible Preferred Stock and a warrant exercisable for 250,000 shares of common stock with an exercise price of $2.25 per share.  Subject to certain conditions, each share of Series E Convertible Preferred Stock is convertible into 1 share of common stock.  The securities were offered to a single institutional shareholder of the Company, and the transaction was exempt under Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act, as amended.

Stock Options - On July 1, 2007 pursuant to the Long Term Incentive Plan the Company awarded members of the board of directors 350,000 stock options with an exercise price of $1.14 and a term of 10 years.  Additionally, on September 7, 2007 the Company awarded members of the board of directors 350,000 stock options with an exercise price of $1.09 and a term of 10 years. All of the options issued were fully vested on the grant date.  The Company has recognized $119,903 of expense related to issuances in the Consolidated Statement of Operations for the three and nine month periods ended September 29, 2007.

Item 2.   Management’s Discussion and Analysis

Cautionary Notice Regarding Forward Looking Statements

We desire to take advantage of the “safe harbor” provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.  This filing contains a number of forward-looking statements which reflect management’s current views and expectations with respect to our business, strategies, products, future results and events, and financial performance.  All statements made in this filing other than statements of historical fact, including statements addressing operating performance, events, or developments which management expects or anticipates will or may occur in the future, including statements related to distributor channels, volume growth, revenues, profitability, new products, adequacy of funds from operations, statements expressing general optimism about future operating results, and non-historical information, are forward looking statements.  In particular, the words “believe,” “expect,” “intend,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “may,” variations of such words, and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements, but are not the exclusive means of identifying such statements, and their absence does not mean that the statement is not forward-looking.  These forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties, including those discussed below.  Our actual results, performance or achievements could differ materially from historical results as well as those expressed in, anticipated, or implied by these forward-looking statements.  We do not undertake any obligation to revise these forward-looking statements to reflect any future events or circumstances.

Readers should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which are based on management’s current expectations and projections about future events, are not guarantees of future performance, are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions (including those described below), and apply only as of the date of this filing.  Our actual results, performance or achievements could differ materially from the results expressed in, or implied by, these forward-looking statements.  Factors which could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, risks discussed in our Annual Report on form 10-KSB.  We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.

Overview

The Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Deer Valley Homebuilders, Inc. (“DVH”), an Alabama corporation with its business offices located at 205 Carriage Street, P.O. Box 310, Guin, Alabama 35563, is engaged in the production, sale and marketing of factory-built homes in the southeastern and south central U.S. housing market.  As of the date of this filing, we manufacture all of our factory-built homes in two manufacturing facilities, one located in Guin, Alabama and one located in Sulligent, Alabama.  We rely upon a team of regional sales directors and approximately 80 independent dealers to market our factory-built homes in over 100 retail locations.  As of the date of this filing, we are selling our factory-built homes in 13 states through our network of independent dealers and retail centers.

In recent years, the factory-built housing industry has suffered a downturn in sales as a result of a tightening of credit standards, restricted availability of retail and wholesale financing, and excessive inventory levels.  This industry decline began in 1999, approximately five years before we successfully launched and began to rapidly grow our business in January, 2004.  We have excelled in a tough industry through efficient manufacturing at our production facilities, industry leading products, experienced and capable relations oriented sales and management teams, stringent cost controls, and attention to dealer support, customer satisfaction, and service efforts.

Beginning in the second quarter of calendar year 2007, state and federal agencies, and other government sponsored entities, began distributing Requests for Proposals (RFPs) for housing designed to test and evaluate future disaster recovery housing units for the Gulf Coast region.  These RFPs have presented an opportunity for a near term upswing in production for Deer Valley and other companies in the industry serving the Gulf Coast.

The Company has aggressively sought to take advantage of its Alabama location and reputation in the Gulf Coast area to become a significant participant in the permanent rebuilding of the Gulf Coast region and the production of prototypes for future disaster recovery housing units.  As an immediate result of its efforts, in June 2007 the Company’s plant in Guin, Alabama was selected by the State of Mississippi to produce 50 two-bedroom and 100 three-bedroom cottages as part of a program that is designed to test and evaluate future disaster housing units.  The total combined value of this initial contract pilot phase contract awarded to the Company was $7,535,000.  All units contracted for with the Company under this initial contract were produced and delivered before the end of the third quarter of 2007.

In October 2007, the Company was awarded a contract extension by the State of Mississippi for the production and delivery of an additional 150 two-bedroom cottages as part of the State of Mississippi’s pilot program to test and evaluate future disaster housing units. As with the initial contract, the Company will deliver the units to state designated staging areas located near the Gulf Coast.  Total anticipated proceeds from this contract extension is $7,185,000 which, when combined with the completed contract for the manufacture of 50 two-bedroom and 100 three-bedroom cottages,  brings the combined proceeds of the pilot phase contracts awarded to Deer Valley to a total of $14,720,000.  All of the units to be produced by the Company under the contract extension are scheduled to be delivered prior to March 31, 2008.

To provide increased flexibility to fulfill it government contracts, on August 10, 2007, Deer Valley Homebuilders, Inc. (“DVH”) entered into a Revolving Bridge Loan and Security Agreement with Fifth Third Bank, providing for a line of credit of $5,000,000. This facility has a six month term and has a variable interest rate at 2.50% above LIBOR.  (see paragraph below titled “Liquidity and Capital Resources”).

In addition, as part of its strategic plan to continue its growth in a challenging industry, the Company has increased its involvement in the modular segment of the factory built housing industry.  As its initial entry into the modular segment, the Company is targeting the production of smaller units (less than 3,000 square feet) that are readily produceable, in a cost efficient manner, using the Company’s existing manufacturing capabilities.  The Company intends to sell these models to large tract developers and independent dealers.  Modular homes are typically built in a factory in sections and transported to a site to be joined together on a permanent foundation.  Unlike homes constructed in accordance with the Federal Manufactured Home Construction and Safety Standards (“HUD Code homes”), modular homes generally do not have integrated steel frames and axles.

We currently produce all of our factory-built homes at two manufacturing facilities in Guin and Sulligent, Alabama.  Our facilities normally function on a single-shift, five-day work week basis.  Our sales backlog, without including the 150 two-bedroom cottages that we are scheduled to manufacture for the State of Mississippi during the fourth quarter of 2007 and first quarter of 2008, is approximately five weeks.  Once the cottages for the State of Mississippi are included, our total sales backlog increases to approximately eight weeks.  During the third quarter of 2007, the Company’s average production rate was 8.4 “floors” produced per day.

While our HUD Code and modular homes are constructed with many of the same components and building materials used in site-built homes, we utilize a cost-efficient assembly line manufacturing process which enables us to produce a quality home at a significantly lower cost per square foot than a traditional, site-built home.  Our homes are built with residential features, including 1/2 inch drywall, thermally sealed double-paned windows from Capitol™, enhanced insulation, oak cabinets, cultured marble vanities, and two inch by six inch exterior wall construction standards.

The extent of customization of our homes varies to a significant degree with the price of the homes.  In the higher price range of the market, the home buyer is often less sensitive to the price increase associated with significant design modifications.  Our experience in producing a customized home on a cost-effective basis has allowed us to offer customized homes, factory-provided trim-out services, and walk-through inspections of homes.

Each of our HUD Code homes is constructed in accordance with the Federal Manufactured Home Construction and Safety Standards promulgated by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, better known as the “HUD Code.”  Our production and marketing efforts have concentrated on multi-section homes.

Our modular homes must be constructed in accordance with the local building codes in effect at the point of delivery.  These codes vary from state to state and also within states.  Such variance in standards is not conducive to standardized factory construction of a quality home.  Accordingly, we build our modular homes to the standards of the International Residential Code (“IRC”), which is generally more stringent than local building codes.  The IRC has been adopted wholesale by several states and by selected localities in many others.

4


Our two and three-bedroom cottages which we have contracted to manufacture for the State of Mississippi are designed and manufactured to meet the requirements of both the HUD Code and the International Residential Code.  As a result, such cottages can either remain on an integrated steel frame and axle or be joined to a permanent foundation.

Because the cost of transporting a factory-built home is significant, substantially all of our homes are sold to dealers within a 500 mile radius of our manufacturing facility.  DVH arranges, at dealers’ expense, for the transportation of finished homes to dealer locations using independent trucking companies.  Customary sales terms are cash­-on-delivery or guaranteed payment from a floor-plan financing source.  Dealers or other independent installers are responsible for placing the home on site and connecting utilities.

When evaluating the Company’s operating performance, the key performance indicators management examines are (1) the Company’s production rate, in “floors” produced per day, (2) the cost of sales, and (3) the size of the Company’s sales backlog.  For more information on these performance indicators, please see the attached financial statements and notes thereto and the section of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-KSB titled “Description of Business.”

Results of Operations

The following discussion examines the results of the Company’s operations for the three and nine month periods ended September 29, 2007.  This discussion of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and notes to the financial statements, included herewith.  This discussion should not be construed to imply that the results discussed herein will necessarily continue into the future, or that any conclusion reached herein will necessarily be indicative of actual operating results in the future.  Such discussion represents only the best present assessment by our management.  It is also imperative that one read our December 31, 2006 Annual Report on Form 10-KSB and subsequent filings on Form 8-K.

HISTORICAL RESULTS - PERIODS ENDED SEPTEMBER 29, 2007 AND SEPTEMBER 30, 2006.

Revenues.  Overall gross revenue for the three and nine month periods ended September 29, 2007 were $18,103,462 and $45,803,829, respectively, compared to $16,901,751 and $48,767,224, respectively, for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2006.  Revenue for the three month period ended September 29, 2007 increased over the same three period in 2006, primarily due to the Company’s fulfillment of its initial contract with the State of Mississippi for the production of 50 two-bedroom and 100 three-bedroom cottages as part of its program that is designed to test and evaluate future disaster housing units.  Revenue for the Company’s nine month period ended September 29, 2007 was less than the same nine period in 2006 primarily due to reduced production schedule during the first quarter reflecting the industry wide softness in demand for HUD Code housing units.
 
Our Cost of Revenues as a percentage of revenue has generally remained the same for the nine month period ending September 29, 2007, when compared to the corresponding period for 2006.  For the three month period ending September 29, 2007, our cost of revenues as a percentage of revenue increased to 16.62%, as compared to 13.09% for the corresponding period for 2006.
 
Selling, General, and Administrative Expenses.   Selling, general and administrative expenses consisted of payroll and related expenses for executive, accounting, and administrative personnel, professional fees, and other general corporate expenses.  Selling, general, and administrative expenses for the three and nine month periods ended September 29, 2007 were $1,881,300 and $5,125,273, respectively, compared to $1,557,614 and $4,520,552, respectively, for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2006.  General and administrative costs increased for the nine month period ending September 29, 2007, in comparison to the corresponding period for 2006, primarily due to increased production capacity, increased trade show participation, increased administration cost associated with the MEMA project, and increased non-cash compensation to members of the Board of Directors.  During the third quarter of 2007, the Company awarded to members of the board of directors, in the aggregate, 350,000 stock options with an exercise price of $1.14 and  350,000 stock options with an exercise price of $1.09.  In connection with such awards, the Company recognized $119,903 of expense related to issuances in the Consolidated Statement of Operations for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2007.

Net Income.  The net income for the three and nine month periods ended September 29, 2007 was $750,872 and $1,116,159, respectively, compared to $404,536 and $1,860,840, respectively, for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2006.  After accounting for the stock dividend payable to preferred stockholders and the deemed dividend to preferred stockholders on beneficial conversion features, the net income to common stockholders for the three month and nine month periods ended September 29, 2007 was $661,295 and $805,343, respectively, compared to net losses of $4,916,715 and $7,272,925, respectively, for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2006.  The significant increases in net income to common stockholders for the three and nine month periods ended September 29, 2007 versus those same periods ended September 30, 2006 are primarily attributable to the elimination of an $8.78 million non-recurring, non-cash, deemed dividend to preferred stockholders on beneficial conversion features that burdened the reported earnings attributable to common shareholders for the first three fiscal quarters of 2006.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Management believes that the Company currently has sufficient cash flow from operations, available bank borrowings, cash, and cash equivalents to meet its short-term working capital requirements.  The Company had $5,521,043 in cash and cash equivalents as of September 29, 2007, compared to $4,304,911 in cash and cash equivalents as of September 30, 2006.  Should our costs and expenses prove to be greater than we currently anticipate, or should we change our current business plan in a manner which will increase or accelerate our anticipated costs or capital demand, such as through the acquisition of new products, our working capital could be depleted at an accelerated rate.

The net cash used in operating activities for the nine month period ended September 29, 2007 was $6,326,953.  The net cash provided from operating activities for the nine month period ended September 30, 2006 was $633,146.  The reduction of cash provided by operating activities for the first nine months of 2007, in comparison to the same period from the Company’s prior fiscal year, is attributable primarily to a temporary increase in receivables at the end of the third quarter related to the Company’s fulfillment of  its initial contact with the State of Mississippi to produce 50 two-bedroom and 100 three-bedroom cottages.  During October 2007, the Company received payment from the State of Mississippi for a significant portion of such initial contract, and repaid all borrowings under its Revolving Bridge Loan with Fifth Third Bank. The Company anticipates receiving all remaining payment from the State of Mississippi for such initial contract during the fourth quarter of 2007. The Company’s account receivable as of September 29, 2007 was $9,870,432, as compared to $3,468,853 as of September 30, 2006.

The net cash used in investing activities for the nine month period ending September 29, 2007 was $116,910, which primarily reflects purchases of equipment.  The net cash provided from financing activities for the nine month period ending September 29, 2007 was $4,533,755, which primarily relates to the Company’s borrowings under its line of credit with its senior lender.  The Company anticipates receiving payments during the fourth quarter of 2007 in connection with governmental contracts which were completed during the third quarter, thereby reducing its accounts receivable and its borrowings under its line of credit with its senior lender.

On August 10, 2007, Deer Valley Homebuilders, Inc. (“DVH”) entered into a Revolving Bridge Loan and Security Agreement with Fifth Third Bank, providing for a line of credit in an amount not to exceed Five Million and No/100 Dollars ($5,000,000), evidenced by a revolving credit note and secured by accounts receivable, inventory, equipment and all other tangible and intangible personal property of DVH.  The purpose of the new facility is to provide a standby source of working capital for fulfillment of one or more contracts with the State of Mississippi to construct housing units under the “Mississippi Alternative Pilot Program.”  This facility has a six month term and has a variable interest rate at 2.50% above LIBOR.

On April 11, 2007, Deer Valley Corporation entered into a Loan and Security Agreement providing for a revolving line of credit in an amount not to exceed Two Million Five Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($2,500,000) (the "DV Loan Agreement") evidenced by a revolving credit note and secured by accounts receivable, inventory, equipment and all other tangible and intangible personal property of Deer Valley Corporation and DVH.  The purpose of the DV Loan Agreement is to provide a standby source of working capital, letters of credit required by the terms of certain repurchase agreements and performance bonds entered into in the normal course of the Company’s business, to provide financing for potential acquisition(s) of new manufacturing facilities or subsidiaries, and to provide funding for the Company’s entry into the modular home market.  The DV Loan Agreement has a one year term and has a variable interest rate at 2.60% above LIBOR.  Upon issuance of a letter of credit, Deer Valley Corporation is charged a letter of credit fee equal to 1.00% of the face amount of the letter of credit.

In addition to the above, on April 11, 2007, Deer Valley Homebuilders, Inc. renewed its existing Loan and Security Agreement providing for a revolving line of credit in an amount not to exceed Two Million Five Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($2,500,000.00) (the "DVH Loan agreement") evidenced by a revolving credit note and secured by accounts receivable, inventory, equipment and all other tangible and intangible personal property of DVH and Deer Valley Corporation.  The purpose of the DVH Loan is to provide standby working capital and letters of credit required by the terms of certain repurchase agreements and performance bonds entered into in the normal course of DVH’s business.  The DVH Loan Agreement has a one year term and has a variable interest rate at 2.60% above LIBOR.  Upon issuance of a letter of credit, DVH is charged a letter of credit fee equal to 1.00% of the face amount of the letter of credit.

We are contingently liable under the terms of repurchase agreements with financial institutions providing inventory financing for retailers of our products.  For more information on the repurchase agreements, including the Company’s contingent liability thereunder, please see “Reserve for Repurchase Commitments” below.

Recent Developments

In October 2007, the Company was awarded a contract extension by the State of Mississippi for the production and delivery of an additional 150 two-bedroom cottages as part of the State of Mississippi’s program designed to test and evaluate future disaster housing units. Total anticipated proceeds from the contract extension is $7,185,000 which would bring the combined proceeds of the pilot phase contracts awarded to Deer Valley to a total of $14,720,000.  All of the units to be produced by the Company under the contract extension are scheduled to be delivered prior to March 31, 2008.

During October 2007, the Company received payment from the State of Mississippi for a significant portion of amounts due in connection with its initial contact with the State of Mississippi for the production of 50 two-bedroom and 100 three-bedroom cottages, and repaid all borrowings under its Revolving Bridge Loan with Fifth Third Bank. The total combined value of this initial pilot phase contract awarded to the Company was $7,535,000. The Company expects to receive all remaining payment from the State of Mississippi for such initial contract during the fourth quarter of 2007.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.  The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments which affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities.  For a description of those estimates, see Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, contained in the explanatory notes to the Company’s financial statements for the quarter ended September 29, 2007, contained in this filing.  On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to reserves, deferred tax assets, valuation allowances, impairment of long-lived assets, fair value of equity instruments issued to consultants for services, and estimates of costs to complete contracts.  We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions which we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities which are not readily apparent from other sources.  Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.  However, we believe that our estimates, including those for the above-described items, are reasonable.

Critical Accounting Estimates

Management is aware that certain changes in accounting estimates employed in generating financial statements can have the effect of making the Company look more or less profitable than it actually is.  Management does not believe that either the Company or its auditors have made any such changes in accounting estimates.  A summary of the most critical accounting estimates employed by the Company in generating financial statements follows below.

Warranties

We provide our retail buyers with a one-year limited warranty covering defects in material or workmanship, including plumbing and electrical systems.  We record a liability for estimated future warranty costs relating to homes sold, based upon our assessment of historical experience and industry trends.  In making this estimate, we evaluate historical sales amounts, warranty costs related to homes sold and timing in which any work orders are completed.  The Company has accrued a warranty liability reserve of $2,100,000 on its balance sheet as of September 29, 2007.  Although we maintain reserves for such claims, there can be no assurance that warranty expense levels will remain at current levels or that the reserves that we have set aside will continue to be adequate.  A large number of warranty claims which exceed our current warranty expense levels could have a material adverse affect upon our results of operations.

Volume Incentives Payable

We have relied upon volume incentive payments to our independent dealers who retail our products.  These volume incentive payments are accounted for as a reduction to gross sales, and are estimated and accrued when sales of our factory-built homes are made to our independent dealers.  Volume incentive reserves are recorded based upon the annualized purchases of our independent dealers who purchase a qualifying amount of home products from us.  We accrue a liability to our dealers, based upon estimates derived from historical payout rates.  Volume incentive costs represent a significant expense to us, and any significant changes in actual payouts could have an adverse affect on our financial performance.  We had a reserve for volume incentives payable of $689,400 as of September 29, 2007, as compared to $685,559 as of September 30, 2006.

Reserve for Repurchase Commitments

Most of our independent dealers finance their purchases under a wholesale floor plan financing arrangement under which a financial institution provides the dealer with a loan for the purchase price of the home and maintains a security interest in the home as collateral.  When entering into a floor plan arrangement, the financial institution routinely requires that we enter into a separate repurchase agreement with the lender, under which we are obligated, upon default by the independent dealer, to repurchase the factory-built home at our original invoice price less the cost of administrative and shipping expenses.  Our potential loss under a repurchase obligation depends upon the estimated net resale value of the home, as compared to the repurchase price that we are obligated to pay.  This amount generally declines on a predetermined schedule over a period that usually does not exceed 24 months.

The risk of loss that we face under these repurchase agreements is lessened by several factors, including the following:

(i)
the sales of our products are spread over a number of independent dealers,
(ii)
we have had only isolated instances where we have incurred a repurchase obligation,
(iii)
the price we are obligated to pay under such repurchase agreements declines based upon a predetermined amount over a period which usually does not exceed 24 months, and
(iv)
we have been able to resell homes repurchased from lenders at current market prices, although there is no guarantee that we will continue to be able to do so.

The maximum amount for which the Company is contingently liable under such agreements amounted to approximately $18,539,000 as of September 29, 2007, as compared to $15,375,000 as of September 30, 2006.  As of September 29, 2007 and September 30, 2006, we had reserves of $140,000 and $67,325, respectively, established for future repurchase commitments, based upon our prior experience and evaluation of our independent dealers’ financial conditions. Because Deer Valley to date has not experienced any significant losses under these agreements, management does not expect any future losses to have a material effect on our accompanying financial statements.

Revenue Recognition
Revenue for our products sold to independent dealers are generally recorded when all of the following conditions have been met:  (i) an order for the home has been received from the dealer, (ii) an agreement with respect to payment terms has been received, and (iii) the home has been shipped and risk of loss has passed to the dealer.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
 
FASB Interpretation No 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes -- an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (“FIN 48”), was issued in July 2006.  This interpretation clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an entity's financial statements in accordance with SFAS No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes.”  It prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for financial statement disclosure of tax positions taken, or expected to be taken, on a tax return.  The Company will be required to adopt FIN 48 in the first quarter of fiscal 2008.  Management is currently evaluating the requirements of FIN 48 and has not yet determined the impact on the financial statements.

In September 2006, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 108 (“SAB No. 108”), Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements When Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements. SAB No. 108 provides guidance to registrants for assessing materiality.  SAB No. 108 states that registrants should use both a balance sheet approach and income statement approach when quantifying and evaluating the materiality of a misstatement.  SAB No. 108 also provides guidance on correcting errors under the dual approach as well as transition guidance for correcting previously immaterial errors that are now considered material.  We adopted SAB No. 108 as of January 1, 2007 without any impact on our financial statements.

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurement” (“SFAS 157”), which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about assets and liabilities measured at fair value.  The Company will be required to adopt SFAS 157 in the first quarter of fiscal 2009.  Management is currently evaluating the requirements of SFAS 157 and has not yet determined the impact on the financial statements.

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities.  SFAS No. 159 permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value.  SFAS No. 159 will be effective at the beginning of fiscal year 2008.  We are presently evaluating the impact of the adoption of SFAS No. 159 on our results of operations and financial position.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

In connection with the Capital Stock Purchase Agreement, the Company entered into the Earnout Agreement, pursuant to which additional payments may be paid to the former owners of DVH, as an earnout, based upon the Net Income Before Taxes of DVH during the next five (5) years, up to a maximum of $6,000,000.  The business purpose of executing the Earnout Agreement was to set the purchase price of Deer Valley Homebuilders, Inc. by an objective standard, given that the owners of DVH and the Company could not agree on an outright purchase price.  The Company’s obligations under the Earnout Agreement could negatively affect liquidity, capital resources, market risk, and credit risk.

During the term of the Earnout Agreement, 50% of the pre-tax profit exceeding $1,000,000 per year will be accrued and become distributable to the former owners of DVH.  During the nine month period ending September 29, 2007, Deer Valley Homebuilders, Inc. had pre-tax profit in the amount of $2,569,362, of which $1,569,362 was above the Company’s earnout threshold.  The Company accrued 50% of the amount in excess of the earnout threshold in the amount of $784,681.  The maximum remaining potential accrual under the Earnout Agreement is $2,750,769.

Item 3.   Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company’s Chief Executive Officer and acting Chief Financial Officer has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the fiscal period ending September 29, 2007 covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-QSB.  Based upon such evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and acting Chief Financial Officer has concluded that, as of the end of such period, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as required under Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act.  
 
Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting
 
Beginning with the Company’s first fiscal year ending after December 15, 2007, Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 will require us to include management's report on our internal control over financial reporting in our Annual Report on Form 10-K.  The internal control report must contain (1) a statement of management's responsibility for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over our financial reporting, (2) a statement identifying the framework used by management to conduct the required evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, (3) management's assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of the end of our most recent fiscal year, including a statement as to whether or not our internal control over financial reporting is effective, and (4) a statement that our registered independent public accounting firm has issued an attestation report on management's assessment of our internal control over financial reporting.
 
In order to achieve compliance with Section 404 within the prescribed period, management is planning to commence a Section 404 compliance project to assess the adequacy of our internal control over financial reporting, remediate any control deficiencies that may be identified, validate through testing that controls are functioning as documented, and implement a continuous reporting and improvement process for internal control over financial reporting.  At this time, management is assessing the proper parameters of a Section 404 compliance project in light of emerging guidance from the SEC on such parameters.
 
Except as described above, during the quarter ended September 29, 2007, there have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
 
Inherent Limitations of the Effectiveness of Internal Control
 
A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the internal control system are met.  Because of the inherent limitations of any internal control system, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues, if any, within a company have been detected.

PART II                      OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.   Legal Proceedings

Although the Company in the normal course of business is subject to claims and litigation, the Company is not a party to any material legal proceeding nor is the Company aware of any circumstance which may reasonably lead a third party to initiate legal proceeding against the Company.

As of the date of this filing, there are no material pending legal or governmental proceedings relating to our Company or properties to which we are a party, and to our knowledge there are no material proceedings to which any of our directors, executive officers, or affiliates are a party adverse to us or which have a material interest adverse to us.

Item 2.   Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

Option Plan; Option Grants - On September 7, 2007, the Company’s Board of Directors ratified the Company’s 2007 Long Term Incentive Plan (the “2007 Incentive Plan”).  The 2007 Incentive Plan was effective as of July 1, 2007.  A maximum of 1,800,000 shares of common stock has been authorized to be issued under the 2007 Incentive Plan in connection with the grant of awards, subject to adjustment for corporate transactions, including, without limitation, any stock dividend, forward stock split, reverse stock split, merger or recapitalization.  Of this amount, no more than 1,000,000 shares of common stock may be issued as incentive stock options.

Pursuant to the 2007 Incentive Plan, each of the seven members of the Board of Directors were issued an option exercisable for 50,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, at an exercise price of $1.14.  Such options were approved at a meeting of the Board of Directors in March 2007 and were effective as of July 1, 2007.  In addition, under  the 2007 Incentive Plan, each of the seven members of the Board of Directors were issued an option exercisable for 50,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, at an exercise price of $1.09.  Such options were approved at a meeting of the Board of Directors on September 7, 2007 and were effective as of September 7, 2007.  The issuance of such options were effected in reliance on the exemptions for sales of securities not involving a public offering, as set forth in Rule 506 promulgated under the Securities Act and in Section 4(2) of the Securities Act, based on the following: (a) the investors confirmed to us that they were either “accredited investors,” as defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act; (b) there was no public offering or general solicitation with respect to the offering; (c) the investors acknowledged that all securities being purchased were “restricted securities” for purposes of the Securities Act, and agreed to transfer such securities only in a transaction registered under the Securities Act or exempt from registration under the Securities Act; and (d) a legend was placed on the certificates reflecting such restrictions.

Series A Convertible Preferred Stock - During the three month period ending September 30, 2007 certain shareholders converted 1,500 shares of Series A Preferred stock, par value $15,000, into 20,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. The securities were issued to existing shareholders, and the transaction was exempt under Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act, as amended.

Common Stock Dividends - On August 24, 2007, the Company issued 213,875 shares of the Company’s common stock to Series A Preferred shareholders as payment for $221,239 of dividends.
