NOTE 2 —LIQUIDITY AND FINANCIAL CONDITION
 
WeFor the six months ended March 31, 2011, we generated net income of $6,257,$4,423, which includes a gain on the deconsolidation of discontinued operations of $7,892 (see Note 4), non-cash expenses for share based compensation of $276,$503, non-cash depreciation and amortization expense of $132,$258, and other non-cash charges of $107.$475.  Cash used forin continuing operations amounted to $556$1,317 for the threesix months ended DecemberMarch 31, 2010.2011.  Our accumulated deficit amounted to $33,473,$35,326, while we had cash of $108$646 and a working capital deficit of $671.$1,881.
 
On August 17, 2010 we entered into a long term line of credit facility with one of our directors for $4,000, the facility has an annual interest rate of 7.73% on any outstanding balance and a facility fee of the greater of $40 or 1% of the unused balance.  Additionally, 15,000 warrants, with a five year term exercisable at $1.00 per share, per month will be paidare being issued for each month the facility is outstanding.  As of DecemberMarch 31, 2010,2011, we have issued 75,000120,000 warrants.  Using the Black Scholes pricing model, we have determined the warrants have a fair value of $30 which has beenthe warrants and recorded as other expense of $30 and $61, respectively for the three and six months ended DecemberMarch 31, 2010.2011.  As of DecemberMarch 31, 2010,2011, we do not have an outstanding balance under this facility.  See Note 6.
 
On November 23, 2010, we initiated a private placement (the “Placement”) of up to $3,000 of 12 month Senior Secured Notes (“Notes”) with warrants to purchase 150 shares of Beacon’s common stock at $0.40 per share for every $1 in principal invested.  The Notesinvested, and bear interest at 9% APR.  The Placement will bewas made on a "best efforts" basis with a Minimum of $600 and a Maximum of $3,000.  Net proceeds have been used to repay and replace an existing Senior Secured Bank Note totaling approximately $300 and will also be used for additionalgeneral working capital.capital purposes.  The Placement will expireexpired on the sooner of (a) March 15,30, 2011, if the Minimum has not been met or (b) the date that the Maximum has beenwas raised,see Note 6.  As of December 31, 2010 we have received with net proceeds received of $1,377$2,667 (gross proceeds of $1,551,$3,000 less offering costs of $174)$333).

On March 25, 2011 Beacon offered in a private placement 350 units (the "Series C-1 Units"), to two existing shareholders, at a purchase price of $2 per Series C-1 Unit.  See Note 9 for more details.  As of March 31, 2011, we completed the sale of 175 Series C-1 Units for an aggregate purchase price of $263 and are obligated to issue 175,000 warrants.

Based on the recent progress we made in the execution of our business plan, we believe that our currently available cash, availability of aforementioned credit line and cash received from the issuance of notes payable, and funds we expect to generate from operations will enable us to operate our business and repay our debt obligations as they become due through JanuaryApril 1, 2012. However, we may require additional capital in order to execute our business plan. If we are unable to raise additional capital, or encounter unforeseen circumstances that place constraints on our capital resources, we will be required to take various measures to conserve liquidity, which could include, but not necessarily be limited to, curtailing our business development activities, suspending the pursuit of our business plan, and controlling overhead expenses. We cannot provide any assurance that we will raise additional capital. We have not secured any commitments for new financing at this time, nor can we provide any assurance that new financing will be available to us on acceptable terms, if at all.

NOTE 3 —NOTE 3 —          SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
Principles of Consolidation
The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Beacon Enterprise Solutions Group, Inc., a Nevada corporation and its wholly-owned subsidiaries including BESG Ireland Ltd. and Beacon Solutions S.R.O., which began operations November 1, 2009 and January 1, 2010, respectively.  Additionally Datacenter Contractors AG (formerly Beacon Solutions AG) acquired on July 29, 2009 and discontinued as of June 30, 2010, has been deconsolidated as of December 31, 2010 due to cessation of controlling financial interest in the subsidiary (see Note 4).  All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
 
Reclassifications

Certain amounts in the prior period financial statement have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

Use of Estimates
 
The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of net sales and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. These estimates and assumptions include valuing equity securities and derivative financial instruments issued as purchase consideration in business combinations and/or in financing transactions and in share based payment arrangements, accounts receivable reserves, inventory reserves, deferred taxes and related valuation allowances, allocating the purchase price to the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in business combinations (including separately identifiable intangible assets and goodwill) and estimating the fair values of long lived assets to assess whether impairment charges may be necessary. Certain of our estimates, including accounts receivable and inventory reserves and the carrying amounts of intangible assets could be affected by external conditions including those unique to our industry and general economic conditions. It is reasonably possible that these external factors could have an effect on our estimates that could cause actual results to differ from our estimates. We re-evaluate all of our accounting estimates at least quarterly based on these conditions and record adjustments, when necessary.

Accounts receivable

Accounts receivable of $5,128$4,771 and $5,401 as of DecemberMarch 31, 20102011 and September 30, 2010, respectively include customer billings on invoices issued by us after the service is rendered or the sale earned. Credit is extended based on an evaluation of our customer’s financial condition and advance payment for services is generally required for many of our services.
 
We establish an allowance for doubtful accountaccounts based on our best estimate of the amount of potential credit losses based on specific customer information and historical experience. Changes in economic conditions might result in changes to the estimated allowance.  Account balances deemed to be uncollectible are charged to the allowance for doubtful accounts after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote.  We currently believe the majority of our receivables are collectible due to the nature of the industry. The allowance for doubtful accounts amounted to $887$1,026 and $866 as of DecemberMarch 31, 20102011 and September 30, 2010, respectively.

Inventory
 
Inventory consistedconsists of parts and system components of $691$692 and $707 as of DecemberMarch 31, 20102011 and September 30, 2010, respectively, and is stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) or market. In the case of slow moving items, we calculate a reserve for obsolescence to reflect a reduced marketability for the items. The actual percentage reserved will depend on the total quantity on hand, its sales history, and expected near term sales prospects. The reserve for obsolescence amounted to $165$180 and $150 as of DecemberMarch 31, 20102011 and September 30, 2010, respectively.

Net Loss Per Share
 
Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing net income or loss per share available to common stockholders by the weighted average shares of common stock outstanding for the periods presented.  Diluted net income per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other instruments to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock.  Potentially dilutive securities, consisting of options and warrants, are excluded from the calculation of diluted per share data when they have an anti-dilutive effect or their per share exercise price is greater than the average market price of common stock during the periods presented.  The computation of net income (loss) available to common stockholders per share for the three and six months ended DecemberMarch 31, 20102011 and 2009,2010, respectively, excludes potentially dilutive securities because their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.

 
Shares of common stock issuable upon conversion or exercise of potentially dilutive securities at DecemberMarch 31, 20102011 are as follows:

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
       
In January 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU No. 2010-02, “Accounting and Reporting for Decreases in Ownership of a Subsidiary- a Scope Clarificationto address implementation issues related to the changes in ownership provisions in the Consolidation-Overall Subtopic (Subtopic 810-10) of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. Subtopic 810-10 establishes the accounting and reporting guidance for noncontrolling interests and changes in ownership interests of a subsidiary. An entity is required to deconsolidate a subsidiary when the entity ceases to have a controlling financial interest in the subsidiary. Upon deconsolidation of a subsidiary, an entity recognizes a gain or loss on the transaction and measures any retained investment in the subsidiary at fair value. The gain or loss includes any gain or loss associated with the difference between the fair value of the retained investment in the subsidiary and its carrying amount at the date the subsidiary is deconsolidated. In contrast, an entity is required to account for a decrease in its ownership interest of a subsidiary that does not result in a change of control of the subsidiary as an equity transaction. See Note 4 for the impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2011.

Page 9

In December 31,2010 the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2010-28, “Intangibles — Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): When to Perform Step 2 of the Goodwill Impairment Test for Reporting Units with Zero or Negative Carrying Amounts”. ASU 2010-28 modifies Step 1 of the goodwill impairment test for reporting units with zero or negative carrying amounts by requiring an entity to perform Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test if it is more likely than not that a goodwill impairment exists. This update will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010. The adoption of this is not anticipated to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations.
 
Other accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by the FASB and SEC and/or other standards-setting bodies that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements upon adoption.

NOTE 4 —NOTE 4 —          DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

As previously disclosed in the Company’s Current Report on Form 10-Q filed on August 16, 2010, due to a contractual dispute with its one significant customer and the inability to reach a settlement, Datacenter Contractors AG’s (“DC”, formerly known as “Beacon Solutions AG”) Board has elected to discontinue DC’s operations.  As a result, the net sales and expenses associated with DC have been reclassified as discontinued operations for the three months and six months ended DecemberMarch 31, 20092011 and 2010, respectively in the condensed consolidated financial statements.

On December 14, 2010, Beacon announced that, as a result of DC’s inability to reach a settlement of unpaid invoices by its largest debtor, the DC Board has filed the relevant statutory notices with the local judge in Switzerland in accordance with its fiduciary obligations under Swiss law.  As a result of this action, Beacon ceases to have a controlling financial interest in DC and therefore, in accordance with ASC 810-10-65, must deconsolidate the subsidiary from the condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended DecemberMarch 31, 2010.2011.  The resultant deconsolidation generated a net income of $0 and $7,892, respectively for the three and six months ended March 31, 2011 which is mainly composed of the elimination of the net liabilities of the discontinued DC operations from Beacon’s operations.

We accounted for the filing under the guidance of ASU No. 2010-02, “Accounting and Reporting for Decreases in Ownership of a Subsidiary-Subsidiary - a Scope Clarification” which requires an entity to deconsolidate a subsidiary when the entity ceases to have a controlling financial interest in the subsidiary.

NOTE 9 —NOTE 9 —          STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY
 
Preferred Stock
On March 25, 2011 Beacon offered in a private placement 350 units (the "Series C-1 Units"), to two existing shareholders, at a purchase price of $2 per Series C-1 Unit.  A Series C-1 Unit comprised of (i) one (1) share of $2 Stated Value Series C-1 Convertible Preferred Stock (with each share having 130% nonparticipating liquidation preference, bearing dividends at a rate of 6% per annum payable quarterly in cash or additional Preferred Stock at the holder’s option and convertible at the holder’s discretion into 2,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock, at a conversion price of $0.75, and (ii) a five (5) year warrant to purchase 1,000 shares of its Common Stock (each, an "Investor Warrant") at a purchase price of $0.75 per share (collectively the "Series C-1 Offering").  As of March 31, 2011, we completed the sale of 175 Series C-1 Units for an aggregate purchase price of $263 and are obligated to issue 175,000 warrants.
 
Each share of Series A, Series A-1, Series B and Series BC-1 preferred stock has voting rights equal to the equivalent number of common shares into which it is convertible. The holders of the Series A and Series A-1 are entitled to receive contractual cumulative dividends in preference to any dividend on the common stock at the rate of 10% per annum on the initial investment amount commencing on the date of issue. The holders of the Series B are entitled to receive contractual cumulative dividends in preference to any dividend on the common stock (but subject to the rights of the Series A and Series A-1) at the rate of 6% per annum on the initial investment amount commencing on the date of issue. The holders of the Series C-1 are entitled to receive contractual cumulative dividends in preference to any dividend on the common stock (but subject to the rights of the Series A, Series A-1, and Series B) at the rate of 6% per annum on the initial investment amount commencing on the date of issue.  Such dividends are payable on January 1, April 1, July 1 and October 1 of each year. Dividends accrued but unpaid as of DecemberMarch 31, 2010,2011, are $45$46 for Series A, $43$50 for Series A-1 and $84$95 for Series B, respectively.  Due to the date of issuance of Series C-1, no dividends were earned or accrued as of March 31, 2011.
 
The Company applies the classification and measurement principles enumerated in ASC 815 with respect to accounting for its issuances of the Series A, A-1, B, and BC-1 preferred stock. The Company is required, under Nevada law, to obtain the approval of its Board of Directors in order to effectuate a merger, consolidation or similar event resulting in a more than 50% change in control or a sale of all or substantially all of its assets.
 
We evaluate convertible preferred stock at each reporting date for appropriate balance sheet classification.

Preferred Stock Dividends
 
 We follow the guidelines of ASC 505 Equity - Dividends and Stock Splits when accounting for pay-in-kind (“PIK”) dividends that are settled in convertible securities with beneficial conversion features. Therefore, we recorded $0 and $25$44 of deemed dividends for the three months ended DecemberMarch 31, 20102011 and 2009,2010, respectively, related to the conversion feature based on the difference between the effective conversion price of the conversion option and the fair value of the common stock on the PIK election dates.  We recorded $0 and $69 of deemed dividends for the six months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, related to the conversion feature based on the difference between the effective conversion price of the conversion option and the fair value of the common stock on the PIK election dates.

Issuance of non-employee compensatory options
 
During the fiscal year ended September 30, 2010, in consideration for services, we granted options to purchase 250,000 shares of Common Stock vesting ratably over a 36 month period.  We calculated the fair value of the options using the Black-Scholes option pricing model resulting in a fair value determination of $188, to be recognized over a 36 month period. For the three and six months ended DecemberMarch 31, 20102011 we recognized share based compensation of $15 and $31, respectively related to these options.
 
Stock Options and Other Equity Compensation Plans
 
During the three months ended December 31, 2010, our Board of Directors authorized the Company to grant two tranches of employee stock options to purchase 140,000 and 585,115an aggregate of 725,115 shares of common stock.

Overview
 
Beacon was formed for the purpose of acquiring and consolidating regional telecom businesses and service platforms into an integrated, national provider of high quality voice, data and VOIP communications to small and medium-sized business enterprises (the “SME Market”). The Company was originally formed to acquire companies that would allow it to serve the SME Market on an integrated, turn-key basis from system design, procurement and installation through all aspects of providing network service and designing and hosting network applications. In response to identification of a significant under-served market, our business strategy has shifted to become a leading provider of global, international and regional telecommunications and technology systems infrastructure services, encompassing a comprehensive suite of consulting, design, installation, and infrastructure management offerings, while continuing to provide managed information technology and telecommunications services in selected local markets.
 
Organic Growth Strategy
 
With respect to our plans to increase net sales organically, we have identified, and are currently pursuing, several significant strategies including:
 
 ·Strengthening existing customer relationships to ensure we are their partner for all design, implementation and management of ITS infrastructure solutions.
 
 ·Add additional major account sales resources to facilitate the introduction of Fortune 1000, Global 2000 and qualifying multi-national firms. We refer to these current and future clients as Fortune 10000.
 
 ·Continued expansion of the a la carte services offered to existing major national, multi-national and global clients who have not already signed an infrastructure managed services agreement.

Cost of goodsservices sold increased for the three and six months ended DecemberMarch 31, 2011 compared to the same period in 2010 and 2009 amountedas a result of a shift in our business model whereby we utilize subcontractors to $1,755 and $1,424, and consistedperform a larger portion of $276 and $483our service delivery as opposed to internal resources.  This change in business model was also the source of material costs, $454 and $570 ofthe reduction in direct labor $112expenses in 2011 compared to the same period in 2010.  In addition, sales in all periods in 2011 reflect a sales mix weighted toward our infrastructure management services business versus design and $142 of direct project related costs, and $913 and $229 ofengineering services.  This resulting product mix for the period contributed to an increase in subcontractor fees incurredexpenses in providing services.  The shift2011 compared to the same periods in cost of goods sold from materials to services reflects our maturation into a professional services firm whereby Beacon is using more subcontractors for installation services, and they bear the material costs.2010.

On August 17, 2010 we entered into a long term line of credit facility with one of our directors for $4,000, the facility has an annual interest rate of 7.73% on any outstanding balance and a facility fee of the greater of $40 or 1% of the unused balance.  Additionally, 15,000 warrants, with a five year term at $1.00 per share, per month will be paid for each month the facility is outstanding.  As of DecemberMarch 31, 2010,2011, we have issued 75,000120,000 warrants.  Using the Black Scholes pricing model, we have determined the warrants have a fair value of $30 which has beenthe warrants and recorded as other expense of $30 and $61, respectively for the three and six months ended DecemberMarch 31, 2010.2011.  As of DecemberMarch 31, 2010,2011, we do not have an outstanding balance under this facility.  See Note 6.
 
On November 23, 2010, we initiated a private placement (the “Placement”) of up to $3,000 of 12 month Senior Secured Notes (“Notes”) with warrants to purchase 150 shares of Beacon’s common stock at $0.40 per share for every $1 in principal invested.  The Notesinvested, and bear interest at 9% APR.  The Placement will be made on a "best efforts" basis with a Minimum of $600 and a Maximum of $3,000.  Net proceeds have been used to repay and replace an existing Senior Secured Bank Note totaling approximately $300 and will also be used for additional working capital.  The Placement will expireexpired on the sooner of (a) March 15,30, 2011, if the Minimum has not been met or (b) the date that the Maximum has been raised.  As of December 31, 2010 we have receivedwas raised, with net proceeds received of $1,377$2,667 (gross proceeds of $1,551,$3,000 less offering costs of $174)$333).
On March 25, 2011 Beacon offered in a private placement 350 units (the "Series C-1 Units"), to two existing shareholders, at a purchase price of $2 per Series C-1 Unit. A Series C-1 Unit comprised of (i) one (1) share of $2 Stated Value Series C-1 Convertible Preferred Stock (with each share having 130% nonparticipating liquidation preference, bearing dividends at a rate of 6% per annum payable quarterly in cash or additional Preferred Stock at the holder’s option and convertible at the holder’s discretion into 2,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock, and (ii) a five (5) year warrant to purchase 1,000 shares of its Common Stock (each, an "Investor Warrant") at a purchase price of $0.75 per share (collectively the "Series C-1 Offering").  As of March 31, 2011, we completed the sale of 175 Series C-1Units for an aggregate purchase price of $263 and issued 175,000 warrants.

Based on the recent progress we made in the execution of our business plan, we believe that our currently available cash, availability of aforementioned credit line and cash received from the issuance of notes payable, Series C-1 Units and funds we expect to generate from operations will enable us to operate our business and repay our debt obligations as they become due through JanuaryApril 1, 2012. However, we may require additional capital in order to execute our business plan. If we are unable to raise additional capital, or encounter unforeseen circumstances that place constraints on our capital resources, we will be required to take various measures to conserve liquidity, which could include, but not necessarily be limited to, curtailing our business development activities, suspending the pursuit of our business plan, and controlling overhead expenses. We cannot provide any assurance that we will raise additional capital. We have not secured any commitments for new financing at this time, nor can we provide any assurance that new financing will be available to us on acceptable terms, if at all.
 
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
 
We have four operating lease commitments for real estate used for office space and production facilities.

We currently anticipate the cash requirements for capital expenditures, operating lease commitments and working capital will likely be funded with our existing fund sources and cash provided from operating activities. In the aggregate, total capital expenditures are not expected to be significant for the year ended September 30, 2011 and could be curtailed should we experience a shortfall in expected financing.

Customer Concentration
 
For the three months and six months ended DecemberMarch 31, 20102011 our largest customer accounted for approximately 61%73% and 72% of total sales. Although we expect to have a high degree of customer concentration, our customer engagements are typically covered by multi-year contracts or master service agreements under which we have been operating for a number of years. In addition, current economic conditions could harm the liquidity of and/or financial position of our customers or suppliers, which could in turn cause such parties to fail to meet their contractual or other obligations to us.

Filing Status
 
Beacon Enterprise Solutions Group, Inc., a Nevada corporation has in the past filed reports with the SEC and will continue to do so as Beacon. You can read and copy any materials we file with the SEC at its Public Reference Room at 450 Fifth Street, NW, Washington, DC 20549. You can obtain additional information about the operation of the Public Reference Room by calling the SEC at 1-800-SEC-0330. In addition, the SEC maintains an Internet site (www.sec.gov) that contains reports, proxy and information statements, and other information regarding issuers that file electronically with the Commission, including us.
 
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
 
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our filings under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC. This information is accumulated and communicated to our executive officers to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. As of DecemberMarch 31, 2010,2011, our Chief Executive Officer, who acts in the capacity of principal executive officer and our Chief Financial Officer who acts in the capacity of principal financial officer, have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of DecemberMarch 31, 2010,2011, based on their evaluation of these controls and procedures required by paragraph (b) of Exchange Act Rules 13a-15 or 15d-15.
 
DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND INTERNAL CONTROLS
 
Disclosure controls are designed with the objective of ensuring that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Internal controls are procedures which are designed with the objective of providing reasonable assurance that our transactions are properly authorized, recorded and reported and our assets are safeguarded against unauthorized or improper use, to permit the preparation of our financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, including all applicable SEC regulations.

Page 19

 
As of September 30, 2010, management of our Company had reported at previous dates of assessment that we identified various deficiencies in our accounting processes and procedures that constitute material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting and disclosure controls.  During the year ended September 30, 2010, we took certain steps in an effort to correct these material weaknesses, including hiring a Chief Financial Officer and Corporate Controller, both whom have significant experience with publicly held companies.  The addition of the Corporate Controller has allowed us to implement more complete segregation of duties while also dedicating a resource solely to financial and SEC reporting.

Page 21


Although we believe that these steps have enabled us to improve our internal controls, additional time is still required to fully document our systems, implement control procedures and test their operating effectiveness before we can definitively conclude that we have remediated our deficiencies.
 
We believe that our internal control risks are sufficiently mitigated by the fact that our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer review and approve substantially all of our major transactions and we have, when needed, hired outside experts to assist us with implementing complex accounting principles. Additionally, we believe the addition of the aforementioned Chief Financial Officer and Corporate Controller will enable us to continue implementing the proper controls and making the necessary changes until these material weaknesses are remediated.
 
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
 
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during our last fiscal quarter that materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.
