          In addition to historical information, the following discussion of the Company’s business contains forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. The actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of many factors, including but            not limited to, those discussed in the sections in this Annual Report on Form 10-K entitled “The CreditRiskMonitor Business”, “The Company’s Goals”, “Marketing and Sales”, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations”, and “Risks and Other Considerations”. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which reflect            management’s opinions only as of the date hereof. CreditRiskMonitor.com, Inc. (the “Company” or “CRMZ”) undertakes no obligation to revise or publicly release the results of any revision to these forward-looking statements. Readers should carefully review the risk factors described in this document as well as in other documents the Company files from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q            to be filed by the Company in fiscal year 2009. 

**Overview**

          CRMZ was organized in Nevada in February 1977 and was engaged in the development and sale of nutritional food products from 1982 until October 22, 1993, when it sold substantially all of its assets (the “Asset Sale”), as previously reported. In September 1998, the Company acquired an option (the “Option”) to purchase the assets of            the CreditRisk Monitor credit information service (“CM Service”) from Market Guide Inc. (“MGI”). The Company exercised the Option on December 29, 1998 and completed the purchase of the CM Service assets effective January 19, 1999. The assets included customer contracts, receivables, equipment, software and intangibles. Following the closing of the CM Service purchase, the Company commenced doing business under the name “CreditRiskMonitor.com”.            

**The CreditRiskMonitor Business**

          The overall focus of the Company’s services is on facilitating the extension of trade credit from one business to another. 

          CRMZ (see our website at www.crmz.com) is an Internet-based publisher of financial information, designed to save time for busy corporate credit professionals, which competes with Dun & Bradstreet, Inc. (“D&BTM”). The service publishes comprehensive commercial credit reports covering public companies worldwide and includes            detailed financial statements, ratio analysis and trend reports, peer analyses, Altman Z” default scores, company background information, plus Moody’s Investors Service (“Moody’s”) and Standard & Poor’s (“S&P”) ratings. It also includes trade payment data and public filings (i.e., suits, liens, judgments and bankruptcy information) on millions of U.S. companies. The service also provides continuous filtered news monitoring that            keeps subscribers up to date on events affecting the creditworthiness of companies, including financial statement updates,

SEC filings, Moody’s and S&P rating changes, credit-relevant news stories and press releases. 

          Beginning in 2007, the Company added an interactive service for credit managers to use in managing recommended credit line limits for their customers, in light of changes in the companies’ financial strength. This service monitors daily changes in a customized recommended credit limit for each customer and generates alert messages to subscribers as            requested, so they can take immediate action when a customer’s circumstances change. Mid-year 2007, the Company added its proprietary credit score, the “FRISK2” score, to its Fundamental Service. This new proprietary score predicts corporate default within the next 12 months, and provides clients with a fast, consistent method for identifying those companies at greatest risk of default. The FRISK2 score is updated daily, based on the latest information available to            the Company, and is derived from a statistical model back-tested on 10,000 companies over a multi-year period. 

          In a business-to-business transaction, for example the purchase and sale of $20,000 of merchandise, the seller usually will ship before the buyer pays – this is an extension of trade credit by the seller. The terms of trade credit could be “2%-10 days, net 30” which means the customer is entitled to a 2% deduction from the price if the            customer makes payment within 10 days; but if not, the customer must make payment in full within 30 days. The seller takes a financial risk extending this credit, referred to as “trade credit risk”. The buyer may pay late, causing the seller to incur increased borrowing costs; the seller may incur extra costs in attempting to collect the $20,000; or the buyer may never pay the full $20,000. Amounts unlikely to be repaid are called “bad debt”. If buyers fail            to pay, the seller can suffer substantial losses (e.g., assuming the seller averages a 10% pre-tax margin it will take about $10 of sales to offset each $1 of bad debt). 

          CRMZ’s service is usually purchased by a seller to review the risks of extending trade credit to its customers. CRMZ believes that, with the downsizing of corporations and the related reductions in credit departmental budgets and personnel, corporate credit professionals have to do more with less. It is notable that trade credit decisions are often            made under intense time pressure. Simultaneously, the Company believes, there has been an explosive growth in the volume of data about businesses. Credit professionals are often faced with an overwhelming amount of available data concerning important customers, while the time for research and analysis is severely limited. 

          CRMZ’s service is the result of management’s experience in the commercial credit industry and on-going research with respect to corporate credit department information needs. This has enabled CRMZ to satisfy the credit profession’s need for a timely, efficient, low cost credit information service. CRMZ publishes and sells the following            commercial credit analysis services to corporate credit managers:

|   | only companies of interest to the subscriber. This service is supplemented with trade receivable data contributed mainly by CRMZ’s subscribers, as well as U.S. public-record filing information (i.e., suits, liens, judgments and bankruptcy information) covering millions of public and private U.S. companies. Midyear 2007, the Company added its proprietary FRISK2 score, which saves clients time by                        quickly identifying which companies are at greatest risk of default. At the end of 2008, the Fundamental Service covered over 40,000 public companies worldwide, totaling approximately $43 trillion in corporate revenue and with payables of $6 trillion compared to world GDP of $71 trillion. Subscribers may opt, at lower prices, for limited regional coverage: “North American Service” for coverage of just U.S., Canadian, Mexican and Caribbean companies. In                        addition, the Company sells its Credit Limit Service on an annual subscription basis. This Credit Limit Service is fully integrated with the Fundamental Service, which provides analytical depth to subscribers when questions arise or more analysis is needed. It is only sold in conjunction with the Fundamental Service, for an additional fee. The fee is based, in part, on the number of subject companies evaluated during the annual subscription period, and includes                        monitoring. The Credit Limit Service offers subscribers the ability to calculate and monitor credit line limit recommendations. These calculations are based on a sophisticated proprietary statistical model of default risk.

          There is little hard data on the size of CRMZ’s market. The U.S. National Association of Credit Management has about 30,000 members, but some industry observers believe the number of U.S. credit managers and other personnel performing this function is substantially greater. In addition, there are numerous U.S. based companies that do not have a            full-time credit function but still require credit information. Furthermore, a market exists outside of the U.S. for information on U.S. and foreign companies. Finally, a small fraction of the Company’s customers use the information for purposes outside of the credit function, including procurement and strategic planning/competitive analysis. 

          The viability and potential of CRMZ’s business is made possible by the following characteristics:

| •     | **Non-cyclical.** As economic growth slows, general corporate credit risk usually increases and the credit manager’s function rises in importance and complexity. Additionally, products that allow credit managers to perform their jobs more efficiently and cost effectively, compared to competitive services, should gain market share in most business environments and especially during a downturn.                        In a contracting business environment, many companies face increasing price competition which should accelerate their shift to lower cost technologies and providers, such as CRMZ. CRMZ’s business and revenues therefore have continued to grow as world economic growth slows or declines. Over the last ten years the issuance of corporate “junk bonds” and other debt by public companies and public debt by private companies (LBO’s, etc.), and the                        development of credit instruments to hedge default and interest rate risk (i.e., credit derivatives) has increased dramatically. It is difficult to get a complete or totally accurate number of the totals, but it appears the “notional” values of these various derivative instruments may be in the range of $25-30 trillion. To put this in perspective, in 2008 the U.S. Gross Domestic Product (“GDP”) was approximately $15 trillion, and the market value                        of all U.S. public company equity was approximately $17 trillion. Thus, U.S. public companies and private companies with public debt have a looming vulnerability to business cycle contraction and the attendant market risks for interest rates and stock markets. This dramatically increases the exposure and complexity of extending commercial trade credit and puts a premium on the speed and analysis of CRMZ’s service. |

| •     | **Profit multiplier.** Some of the Company’s basic costs are being reduced. On a broad generic basis, the prices of computer hardware, software and telecommunications have been coming down for all buyers, including CRMZ. In addition, CRMZ has automated a significant amount of the processes used to create and deliver its service; therefore, its production costs, apart from the development cost                        of enhancing and upgrading the Company’s website, are relatively stable over a wide range of increasing revenue. Offsetting these cost reductions is the cost of increasing the data content of CRMZ’s services if the Company chooses to increase content and not raise its prices to cover these additional costs.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                     |

| •     | **Self financing.** CRMZ’s business has no inventory, manufacturing or warehouse facilities, and payment for the subscription service is made early in the subscription cycle. Thus, the Company’s business is characterized by low capital-intensity, and yet it is a business capable of generating high margins and sufficient positive cash flow to grow the business organically with little                        need for external capital. In addition, the Company has approximately $4.4 million of net operating loss carryforwards which may offset future tax liability and thus positively impact cash flow.

The Company believes that many potential customers are unaware of its service, while others are aware of but have not evaluated its service.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                 |

Internationally, the Internet provides a mechanism for rapid and inexpensive marketing and distribution of CRMZ’s service.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                             |

| • | **Broaden the services supplied**. Revenue per subscriber should increase over time as the Company adds functionality and content, which for example it did in 2007 with the introduction of its Credit Limit Service and also with an increase in coverage of non-U.S. companies. Also, revenue per client should increase over time as the Company sells additional passwords to existing clients.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                 |

| • | **Lowest cost provider.** CRMZ’s sourcing, analysis and preparation of data into a usable form is highly automated. CRMZ delivers all of its information to customers via the Internet and there is continuous automation between the sourcing of data and delivery of a company credit report to a subscriber. Because of this automation, CRMZ’s production costs are relatively stable over a wide                        range of increasing revenue. Management believes CRMZ’s cost structure is one of the lowest in its industry.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          |

| • | **High margins and return on investment.** The Company foresees declining unit costs in some important expense areas, such as computer and communication costs, which should increase net profits from its subscription income stream. The Company believes that the advent of Internet delivery of telephone calls will further reduce the cost per phone call over the next several years, and computer costs                        per transaction should also continue to decline. The Company has lower sales expenses for customer renewals than for new sales, and the Company expects that its renewal revenue will continue to grow to be a larger share of total revenue each year. All these naturally occurring unit cost reductions will be in addition to the cost reductions achieved through servicing more accounts over the Company’s in-place fixed costs. |

**Marketing and Sales**

          To gain market share for the Company’s service, it will continue to use the Internet (at our website www.crmz.com) as the primary mechanism for demonstrating and distributing its service. To inform potential subscribers about its service, CRMZ uses a combination of telephone sales, Internet demonstration, direct mail, trade show representation and            speaking engagements before credit groups and associations.

**Value Proposition**

          The Company’s fundamental value proposition is that it creates and sells high quality commercial credit reports that save busy credit managers time, at a cost significantly below that of reports from the leading provider (price comparison as of January 30, 2009). Because D&B has the largest share of the commercial credit market, their            flagship product, the Business Information Report (“BIR”), is the standard by which that market measures both quality and price. The Company’s research shows that its customers overwhelmingly agree that CreditRiskMonitor saves them time, helps them to make better credit decisions, and represents a significant value for the price paid compared to competitive services. 

          The operational strategy CRMZ follows to deliver on its value proposition is straightforward. CRMZ became (and remains) one of the industry’s lowest cost producers of high quality commercial credit information by continuously collecting data from a wide variety of sources and employing sophisticated proprietary computer algorithms to process            that data into an extensive database of valuable reports on companies. Highly automated operations add to reliability and consistency, while limiting costs. The Company employs a small number of analysts who selectively review data at critical points in its process to further enhance the quality of its products and their relevance to credit professionals.

          CRMZ employs several different selling strategies to deliver this value to different customer segments:

| • | Credit professionals need to save time, when analyzing their most important customers, and the CRMZ service provides this critical benefit. CRMZ believes that its reports and monitoring of public companies, having aggregate revenues of approximately $43 trillion and payables of $6 trillion, are superior in this way to what is offered by D&B. The CRMZ service provides financial information in                        greater depth and better analytical efficiency. It also includes timely email alerts enabling credit professionals to easily stay on top of financial developments at their customers, without the clutter of non-financial news prevalent at other news services. Finally, the Moody’s and S&P ratings, and the Altman Z” and proprietary FRISK2 scores offered by the service enable further efficiency by focusing attention on only those companies showing financial                        weakness. |

|       | the number of units being purchased upfront, with the resulting price of a domestic U.S. BIR generally ranging between $40 and $60. If a customer has unused units at the end of the year, D&B may allow it to carry a percentage of them forward, if the customer renews for another year for at least the same number of units as the previous year. All other unused units may be forfeited. For these                        customers, CRMZ’s simple unlimited usage fixed price annual subscription represents an opportunity to save money by reducing the customer’s D&B usage. The best practice that CRMZ recommends to its subscription customers is to always search CRMZ’s database first (which does not incur any incremental expense to them) and to save their expensive D&B units for decisions concerning those privately-held businesses where CRMZ may have little or no                        information. According to the Company’s research, the great majority of customers report saving money as a result of using the CRMZ service. In 2005, the Company became aware that D&B had also begun selling some part of its service on a “fixed-price” basis, and in 2006 D&B expanded this practice under the trade name “DNBi”. It appears that these contracts offer a fixed price for usage of D&B information within a wide range of                        amounts, the upper end of which is a multiple of the customer’s current usage. D&B attempts to maintain or increase its total annual charges to each DNBi customer, and these charges are generally many times more than comparable CRMZ fees. At the same time, D&B attempts to bind its customers to multi-year agreements, so as to blunt the customer’s ability to reduce its D&B costs over several years. The Company cannot predict the effectiveness of                        D&B’s strategy much less whether D&B will find this DNBi pricing is even sustainable over multiple years, while attempting to continuously increase its revenues. To date, the tactic has not significantly diminished the Company’s ability to win new customers. |

| •     | The Company estimates that only a small percentage of all credit-related business transactions are currently supported by objective third party credit information. This is not surprising, given the high cost of commercial credit reports from D&B and other vendors. CRMZ breaks that model by eliminating the incremental cost of a credit report.

| **•** | For low-volume customers, CRMZ sells single commercial credit reports for a flat price of $49.95 per report, using credit card transactions via the Internet. Although D&B also sells single reports on the Internet, they impose a complicated pricing schedule, in which the price of a specific company report depends on both the customer’s home country and the home country of the company about                        which they are inquiring. This pricing schedule includes more than 30 different price points for essentially the same D&B Business Information Report alone, ranging from $80 to $570 for this flagship report. This competitor’s approach is apparently designed to protect its legacy revenue streams from the pre-Internet era, when charging large cross-border premiums could be justified to some extent by the increased production costs of producing and delivering                        reports across boundaries. In                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                    |

|        | contrast, CRMZ was designed from the ground up to be a worldwide provider of commercial credit reports over the Internet, and is not similarly constrained by legacy systems. Consequently, CRMZ’s value advantage is even more apparent when customers compare the costs of cross-border report purchases. |

**Net Operating Loss Carryforwards**

          At December 31, 2008, the Company had net operating loss (“NOL”) carryforwards aggregating approximately $4.4 million, expiring in varying amounts over the next eighteen (18) years, which, to the extent available under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), may be used to minimize the Company’s liability            for taxes on future taxable income of the Company, if any. 

          Section 382 of the Code provides limits on the amount of a company’s NOL carryforwards which can be applied against its earnings after an “ownership change” occurs. The Company is not aware of any transaction, pending or contemplated, that could constitute an ownership change.

**Employees**

          As of March 6, 2009, the Company had 50 full-time employees. None of the Company’s employees are covered by a collective bargaining agreement. The Company believes its relations with its employees to be satisfactory and has suffered no interruption in operations.

          The Company established a 401(k) Plan covering all employees effective January 1, 2000 that provides for discretionary Company contributions. The Company has no other retirement, pension, profit sharing or similar program in effect for its employees. The Company adopted a stock option plan in 1998 that covers its employees.

| **ITEM 7.** | **MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.** |

**Business Environment**

          The continuing uncertainty in the worldwide financial system has negatively impacted general business conditions. It is possible that a weakening economy could adversely affect our clients’ need for credit information, or even their solvency, but we cannot predict whether or to what extent this will occur. To the contrary, monthly bookings of new            business subscriptions for the fourth quarter of 2008 were the highest in the Company’s history supporting our belief that the need for our credit information appears to be non-cyclical.

          Our strategic priorities and plans for 2009 will continue to build on the improvement initiatives underway to achieve sustainable, profitable growth. Global market conditions, however, may affect the level and timing of resources deployed in pursuit of these initiatives in 2009. 

**Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources**

          At December 31, 2008, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $913,000 compared to $2.97 million at December 31, 2007. This decrease of over $2 million was the result of the Company investing excess cash funds at December 31, 2008 in U.S. Government intermediate bond funds which are classified for financial reporting purposes as trading securities.            The Company had working capital (i.e., total current assets in excess of total current liabilities) of approximately $197,000 at December 31, 2008 compared to approximately $44,000 at December 31, 2007. The Company’s current ratio (which measures a company’s ability to meet its current obligations and is computed by dividing total current assets by total current liabilities) went from 1.01 at December 31, 2007 to 1.04 at December 31, 2008. Additionally, the main            component of current liabilities at December 31, 2008 is deferred revenue of $4.39 million, which should not require significant future cash outlay other than the cost of preparation and delivery of the applicable commercial credit reports which cost much less than the deferred revenue shown. The deferred revenue is recognized as income over the subscription term, which approximates twelve months. The Company has no bank lines of credit or other currently available credit sources.            

          The Company believes that it has sufficient resources to meet its working capital and capital expenditure needs for the foreseeable future. 

          As described more fully in Note 10 of the Notes to Financial Statements, at December 31, 2008 the Company had certain cash obligations, which are due as follows:

          Operating revenues increased 18% for fiscal 2008. This increase was primarily due to an increase in the number of subscribers and increased revenue from existing subscribers to the Company’s Internet subscription service as the market became more aware of the Company’s enhanced service, offset in part by a decrease in the number of            subscribers to the Company’s third-party international credit report subscription service. 

          Data and product costs increased 6% for fiscal 2008. This increase was primarily due to higher salary and related employee benefits, including the hiring of an employee, and the higher cost of third-party content due to price increases. 

           Selling, general and administrative expenses increased 28% for fiscal 2008. This increase was primarily due to higher salary and related employee benefit costs, resulting from an increase in the Company’s sales force during the past 12 months, and higher marketing expenses. New salespeople require a learning curve to understand and sell the            Company’s service. Thus, there is a lag between the increase in the Company’s sales force and anticipated higher sales. 

          Depreciation and amortization increased 24% for fiscal 2008, due to a higher depreciable asset base reflecting the replacement of computer equipment that had been in operation past its depreciable life. 

          Other income increased 53% for fiscal 2008, primarily due to a higher level of funds invested in interest bearing accounts. 

          Interest expense decreased 74% for fiscal 2008, primarily due to the Company prepaying its long-term debt in April 2008, as well as a lower outstanding long-term debt balance during the first quarter of 2008. 

          The Company did not report a provision for Federal income taxes because of the availability of net operating loss carryforwards to offset its current tax liability.

          Operating revenues increased 15% for fiscal 2007. This increase was primarily due to an increase in the number of subscribers and increased revenue from existing subscribers to the Company’s Internet subscription service as the market became more aware of the Company’s enhanced service as well as sales from the Company’s new credit            limit service introduced during the first quarter. 

          Data and product costs increased 18% for fiscal 2007. This increase was primarily due to higher salary and related employee benefits costs including the hiring of additional quality control and IT personnel, as well as the cost of new third-party content added to the Company’s website offset in part by lower consulting fees. 

          Selling, general and administrative expenses increased 4% for fiscal 2007. This increase was primarily due to higher salary and related employee benefit costs due to an increase in the Company’s sales force during the past 12 months and an increase in professional fees, primarily for outside assistance in complying with the requirements of the            Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, partially offset by a decrease in marketing expenses. 

          Depreciation and amortization decreased less than 1% for fiscal 2007, due to a lower depreciable asset base reflecting the continued use of certain items that have been fully depreciated. 

          Other income increased 37% for fiscal 2007, primarily due to a higher level of funds invested in interest bearing accounts as well as a higher interest rate received on such funds during the current period compared to the same period last year. 

          Interest expense decreased 28% for fiscal 2007, due to a lower outstanding promissory note balance. 

          The Company did not report a provision for Federal income taxes because of the availability of net operating loss carryforwards to offset its current tax liability.

Future Operations

          The Company over time intends to expand its operations by expanding the breadth and depth of its product and service offerings and introducing new and complementary products. Gross margins attributable to new business areas may be lower than those associated with the Company’s existing business activities.

          As a result of the Company’s limited operating history and the evolving nature of the markets in which it competes, the Company’s ability to accurately forecast its revenues, gross profits and operating expenses as a percentage of net sales is limited. The Company’s current and future expense levels are based largely on its investment            plans and estimates of future revenues. To a large extent these costs do not vary with revenue. Sales and operating results generally depend on the Company’s ability to attract and retain customers and the volume of and timing of customer subscriptions for the Company’s services, which are difficult to forecast. The Company may be unable to adjust spending in a timely manner to compensate for any unexpected revenue shortfall. Accordingly, any significant shortfall in            revenues in relation to the Company’s planned expenditures would have an immediate adverse effect on the Company’s business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations. Further, as a strategic response to changes in the competitive environment, the Company may from time to time make certain pricing, service, marketing or acquisition decisions that could have a material adverse effect on its business, prospects, financial condition and results of            operations.

          Achieving greater profitability depends on the Company’s ability to generate and sustain increased revenue levels. The Company believes that its success will depend in large part on its ability to (i) increase its brand awareness, (ii) provide its customers with outstanding value, thus encouraging customer renewals, and (iii) achieve sufficient            sales volume to realize economies of scale. Accordingly, the Company intends to continue to increase the size of its sales force, invest in product development, operating infrastructure, marketing and promotion. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to achieve these objectives within a meaningful time frame. 

**Critical Accounting Policies, Estimates and Judgments**

          The Company’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles that are generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements require management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at            the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Management bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience and other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates. Management continually evaluates its estimates and judgments, the most critical of which are those related to:

|--------|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|   | *Income taxes* — The Company provides for deferred income taxes resulting from temporary differences between financial statement and income tax reporting. Temporary differences are differences between the amounts of assets and liabilities reported for financial statement purposes and their tax bases. Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for temporary differences that will be taxable in                        future years’ tax returns. Deferred tax assets are recognized for temporary differences that will be deductible in future years’ tax returns and for operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance if it is deemed more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The Company considers that the cumulative losses incurred in recent years creates a rebuttable presumption                        that a full valuation allowance continues to be required for its deferred tax assets. |

**Federal Tax Considerations**

          The Company has available net operating loss carryforwards (“NOLs”), which may be used to reduce its Federal income tax liability. However, provisions contained in the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), may impose substantial limitations upon the Company’s ability to utilize its NOLs. For example, the            Company may be subject to the “alternative minimum tax” which does not always permit full utilization of NOLs otherwise available.

          Limitations imposed by Section 382 of the Code upon the availability of NOLs would apply if certain changes were to occur in ownership of the Company. Thus, the Company’s utilization of its carryforwards in the future may be deferred and/or reduced if the Company undertakes further equity financings or if certain other changes occur in the            ownership of the Common Stock. See “Business - Net Operating Loss Carryforwards”. 

**Recently Issued Accounting Standards**

          The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) and the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) have issued accounting pronouncements as of December 31, 2008 that will become effective in subsequent periods; however, management does not believe that any of those pronouncements would have significantly affected our            financial

accounting measurements or disclosures had they been in effect during the annual period for which financial statements are included in this annual report, nor does management believe those pronouncements would have a significant effect on our future financial position or results of operations.

**Risks and Other Considerations**

          The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only ones facing the Company. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to the Company or currently deemed immaterial also may impair its business operations. If any of the risks described below actually occur, the Company’s business could be impaired.

          From time to time, information provided by the Company or statements made by its employees, or information provided in its filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission may contain forward-looking information. Any statements contained herein or otherwise made that are not statements of historical fact may be deemed to be forward-looking statements.            Without limiting the foregoing, the words “believes”, “expects”, “anticipates”, “plans” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. The Company’s actual future operating results or short-term or long-term liquidity may differ materially from those projections or statements made in such forward-looking information as a result of various risks and uncertainties, including but not limited to the            following in addition to those set forth elsewhere herein or in other filings made by the Company with the Commission.

**          Limited Operating History of CRMZ; Anticipated Losses and Negative Cash Flow**. The Company has been operating its business since January 1999, when it acquired the assets of the CreditRisk Monitor credit information service. Accordingly, CRMZ has a limited operating history on which to base an evaluation of its business and prospects. The            Company’s prospects must be considered in light of the risks, expenses and difficulties frequently encountered by companies in their early stage of development, particularly companies in new and rapidly evolving markets such as online commerce. Such risks for the Company include, but are not limited to, an evolving and unpredictable business model and the management of growth. To address these risks, the Company among other things, must maintain and increase its customer base,            implement and successfully execute its business and marketing strategy and its expansion into new product markets, effectively integrate acquisitions and other business combinations, continue to develop and upgrade its technology and transaction-processing systems, improve its Web site, provide superior customer service, respond to competitive developments and attract, retain and motivate qualified personnel. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in            addressing such risks, and the failure to do so could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.

          Since inception, CRMZ incurred significant operating losses, and it has been generating operating profits only since 2006. There can be no assurance that the Company may not again incur additional losses and negative cash flow. See “MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.”

**          Unpredictability of Future Revenues and Profits; Potential Fluctuations in Quarterly Operating Results**. As a result of the Company’s limited operating history and the emerging nature of the markets in which it competes, the Company’s ability to accurately forecast its revenues, gross profits and operating expenses as a            percentage of net sales is limited. The Company’s current and future expense levels are based largely on its investment plans and estimates of future revenues and to a large extent are fixed. Sales and operating results generally depend on the Company’s ability to attract and retain customers and the volume of and timing of their subscriptions for the Company’s services, which are difficult to forecast. The Company may be unable to adjust spending in a timely            manner to compensate for any unexpected revenue shortfall. Accordingly, any significant shortfall in revenues in relation to the Company’s planned expenditures would have an immediate adverse effect on the Company’s business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations. Further, as a strategic response to changes in the competitive environment, the Company may from time to time make certain pricing, service, marketing or acquisition decisions that could have            a material adverse effect on its business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.

          Maintaining and improving profitability depends on the Company’s ability to generate and sustain substantially increased revenue levels. The Company believes that its success will depend in large part on its ability to (i) extend its brand position, (ii) provide its customers with outstanding value, and (iii) achieve sufficient sales volume to            realize economies of scale. Accordingly, the Company intends to continue to invest in marketing and promotion, product development and technology and operating infrastructure development. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to achieve these objectives within a meaningful time frame. 

          The Company expects to experience significant fluctuations in its future quarterly operating results due to a variety of factors, some of which are outside the Company’s control. Factors that may adversely affect the Company’s quarterly operating results include, among others, (i) the Company’s ability to retain existing customers,            attract new customers at a steady rate and maintain customer satisfaction, (ii) the Company’s ability to maintain gross margins in its existing business and in future product lines and markets, (iii) the development of new services and products by the Company and its competitors, (iv) price competition, (v) the level of use of the Internet and online services and increasing acceptance of the Internet and other online services for the purchase of products such as those offered            by the Company, (vi) the Company’s ability to upgrade and develop its systems and infrastructure, (vii) the Company’s ability to attract new personnel in a timely and effective manner, (viii) the level of traffic on the Company’s website, (ix) the Company’s ability to manage effectively its development of new business segments and markets, (x) the Company’s ability to successfully manage the integration of operations and technology of acquisitions or            other business combinations, (xi) technical difficulties, system downtime or Internet brownouts, (xii) the amount and timing of operating costs and capital expenditures relating to expansion of the Company’s business, operations and infrastructure, (xiii) governmental regulation and taxation policies, (xiv) disruptions in service by common carriers due to strikes or otherwise, (xv) risks of fire or other casualty, (xvi)

17

----

litigation costs or other unanticipated expenses, (xvii) interest rate risks and inflationary pressures, and (xviii) general economic conditions and economic conditions specific to the Internet and online commerce.

          Due to the foregoing factors and the Company’s limited forecasting abilities, the Company believes that period-to-period comparisons of its revenues and operating results are not necessarily meaningful and should not be relied on as an indication of future performance.

**          Competition**. The online commerce market, particularly over the Web, is new, rapidly evolving and intensely competitive. The Company’s current or potential competitors include (i) companies now selling or who will be selling credit analysis data, such as D&BTM which currently has the dominant position in the industry and            the financial resources to invest much more than the Company can while withstanding substantial price competition, and (ii) a number of indirect competitors that specialize in online commerce or information or who derive a substantial portion of the revenues from online commerce, advertising or information, and who may offer competing products, and many of which possess significant brand awareness, sales volume and customer bases. The Company believes that the principal competitive            factors in its market are brand recognition, selection, personalized services, convenience, price, accessibility, customer service, quality of search tools, quality of editorial and other site content and reliability and speed of delivery. Many of the Company’s competitors have longer operating histories, larger customer bases, greater brand recognition and significantly greater financial, marketing and other resources than the Company. Certain of the Company’s            competitors may be able to secure data from vendors on more favorable terms, devote greater resources to marketing and promotional campaigns, adopt more aggressive pricing and devote substantially more resources to Web site and systems development than the Company. Increased competition may result in reduced operating margins, loss of market share and a diminished brand franchise. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to compete successfully against current and            future competitors.

          The Company expects that the competition in the Internet and online commerce markets will intensify in the future. For example, as various Internet market segments obtain large, loyal customer bases, participants in those segments may seek to leverage their market power to the detriment of participants in other market segments. In addition, new            technologies and the expansion of existing technologies may increase the competitive pressures on the Company. Competitive pressures created by any one of the Company’s competitors, or by the Company’s competitors collectively, could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations. 

**          Need for Additional Financing; Risks of Default**. The Company’s future liquidity and capital funding requirements will depend on numerous factors, including whether or when the Company will increase its customer base and revenues, and the costs and timing of expansion of sales, control of information costs and other expenses and            competition. There can be no assurance that additional capital, if needed, will be available on terms acceptable to the Company, or at

18

----

all. Furthermore, any additional equity financing may be dilutive to stockholders and may cause a loss or material limitation of the Company’s NOL carryovers, and debt financing, if available, will likely include restrictive covenants, including financial maintenance covenants restricting the Company’s ability to incur additional indebtedness and to pay dividends. The failure of the Company to raise            capital on acceptable terms when needed could have a material adverse effect on the Company.

**          System Development and Operation Risks**. Any system interruptions that result in the unavailability of the Company’s Web site would reduce the attractiveness of the Company’s service offerings. The Company has experienced periodic system interruptions, which it believes will continue to occur from time to time. The Company will            be required to add additional software and hardware and further develop and upgrade its existing technology and network infrastructure to accommodate increased traffic on its Web site resulting from increased sales volume. Any inability to do so may cause unanticipated system disruptions, slower response times, degradation in levels of customer service, impaired quality, or delays in reporting accurate financial information. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to            accurately project the rate or timing of increases, if any, in the use of its Web site or in a timely manner to effectively upgrade and expand its systems or to integrate smoothly any newly developed or purchased modules with its existing systems. Any inability to do so could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.

          The Company’s web servers were located to a secure offsite location during 2004. Its back office computer and communications hardware is located at a single leased facility in Valley Cottage, New York. The Company’s systems and operations are vulnerable to damage or interruption from fire, flood, power loss, telecommunications failure,            break-ins, earthquake and similar events. The Company does not currently have redundant systems or a formal disaster recovery plan and does not have sufficient business interruption insurance to compensate it for losses that may occur. Despite the implementation of network security measures by the Company, its servers are vulnerable to computer viruses, physical or electronic break-ins and similar disruptions, which could lead to interruptions, delays, loss of critical data or the            inability to accept and fulfill customer orders. The occurrence of any of the foregoing events could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.

**          Management of Potential Growth**. To manage the expected growth of its operations and personnel, the Company will be required to improve existing and implement new operational and financial systems, procedures and controls, as well as to expand, train and manage its growing employee base. There can be no assurance that the Company’s            current and planned personnel, systems, procedures and controls will be adequate to support the Company’s future operations, that management will be able to hire, train, retain, motivate and manage required personnel or that Company management will be able to successfully identify, manage and exploit existing and potential market opportunities. If the Company is unable to manage growth effectively, such inability could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s            business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.

19

----

**          Limited Personnel**. The Company currently has limited personnel and other resources to undertake the extensive marketing activities necessary to maintain and grow is revenues. The Company’s ability to generate revenue will be dependent upon, among other things, its ability to manage an effective sales organization. The Company will            need to continue to develop and expand a sales force and a marketing group with technical expertise to coordinate marketing efforts. In addition, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to market its products effectively through an in-house sales force, independent sales representatives, through arrangements with an outside sales force, or through strategic partners.

**          Risks of New Business Areas**. The Company intends to expand its operations by continuing to promote new and complementary products and by expanding the breadth and depth of its product or service offerings. Expansion of the Company’s operations in this manner will require significant additional expense and development, operations and            editorial resources and could strain the Company’s management, financial and operational resources. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to expand its operations in a cost-effective or timely manner. Furthermore, any new business launched by the Company that is not favorably received by customers could damage the Company’s reputation or the CRMZ brand. The lack of market acceptance of such efforts or the Company’s inability to generate            satisfactory revenues from such expanded services or products to offset their cost could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations. Gross margins attributable to new business areas may be lower than those associated with the Company’s existing business activities.

**          Risks of Business Combinations and Strategic Alliances**. The Company may choose to expand its operations or market presence by entering into business combinations, investments, joint venture or other strategic alliances with third parties. Any such transaction will be accompanied by risks commonly encountered in such transactions, which            include, among others, the difficulty of assimilating the operations, technology and personnel of the combined companies, the potential disruption of the Company’s ongoing business, the possible inability to retain key technical and managerial personnel, the potential inability of management to maximize the financial and strategic position of the Company through the successful integration of acquired businesses, additional expenses associated with amortization of purchased            intangible assets, additional operating losses and expenses associated with the activities and expansion of acquired businesses, the maintenance of uniform standards, controls and policies and the possible impairment of relationships with existing employees and customers. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in overcoming these risks or any other problems encountered in connection with such business combinations, investments, joint ventures or other            strategic alliances, or that such transactions will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.

**          Rapid Technological Change**. To remain competitive, the Company must continue to enhance and improve the responsiveness, functionality and features of its services. The Internet and the online commerce

20

----

industry are characterized by rapid technological change, changes in user and customer requirements and preferences, frequent new products and service introductions embodying new technologies and the emergence of new industry standards and practices that could render the Company’s existing website and proprietary technology and systems obsolete. The Company’s success will depend, in part, on its            ability to license leading technologies useful in its business, enhance its existing services, develop new services and technology that address the increasingly sophisticated and varied needs of its prospective customers and respond to technological advances and emerging industry standards and practices on a cost-effective and timely basis. The development of a website and other proprietary technology entails significant technical, financial and business risks. There can be no            assurance that the Company will successfully implement new technologies or adapt its website, proprietary technology and transaction-processing systems to customer requirements or emerging industry standards. If the Company is unable, for technical, legal, financial or other reasons, to adapt in a timely manner in response to changing market conditions or customer requirements, such inability could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, prospects, financial            condition and results of operations.

**          Dependence on Key Personnel**. The Company’s performance is substantially dependent on the continued services and on the performance of its senior management and other key personnel. The Company does not have long-term employment agreements with any of its key personnel and maintains no “key person” life insurance policies.            The loss of the services of its executive officers or other key employees could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations. 

**          Reliance on Certain Suppliers**. The Company purchases its data and/or credit reports from a limited number of vendors under agreements having terms of 24 months or less. The Company has no longer-term contracts or arrangements with any vendor of data that guarantee the availability of data, the continuation of particular payment terms or the            extension of credit. Nevertheless, the Company believes that it would be able to obtain the necessary data from other sources, at competitive prices, should it become necessary or advisable to do so. There can be no assurance, however, that the Company’s vendors will continue to supply data to the Company on current terms or that the Company will be able to establish new or extend current vendor relationships to ensure acquisition of information in a timely and efficient            manner and on acceptable commercial terms. If the Company were unable to maintain or develop relationships with vendors that would allow it to obtain sufficient quantities of reliable information on acceptable commercial terms, such inability could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.

**          Risk of Expansion and Implementation of Growth Strategy**. The Company’s growth and expansion have placed, and may continue to place, a strain on the Company’s management, administrative, operational, financial and technical resources and increased demands on its systems and controls. Demands on the Company’s network            resources and technical staff and resources have grown rapidly with the Company’s expanding customer bases. A failure to effectively provide customer and technical support services will adversely affect the Company’s ability

21

----

to attract and maintain its customer base. The Company expects to experience continued strain on its operational systems as it develops, operates and maintains its network. Expected increases in the Company’s Internet client base will produce increased demands on sales, marketing and administrative resources, its engineering and technical resources, and its customer and technical support resources. The            Company believes that it will need, both in the short-term and the long-term, to hire additional sales and marketing and technical personnel as well as qualified administrative and management personnel in the accounting and finance areas to manage its financial control systems. In addition, the Company will need to hire or to train managerial and support personnel. Although the Company has hired additional personnel and upgraded certain of its systems, there can be no assurance that            the Company’s administrative, operating and financial control systems, infrastructure, personnel and facilities will be adequate to support the Company’s future operations or maintain and effectively adapt to future growth.

          There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to build its infrastructure, add services, expand its customer bases or implement the other features of its business strategy at the rate or to the extent presently planned, or that its business strategy will be successful. The Company’s ability to continue to grow may be affected by various            factors, many of which are not within the Company’s control, including U.S. and foreign regulation of the Internet industry, competition and technological developments. The inability to continue to upgrade the networking systems or the operating and financial control systems, the inability to recruit and hire necessary personnel or the emergence of unexpected expansion difficulties could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, prospects, financial            condition and results of operations.

**          Risks of Network Failure**. The success of the Company is largely dependent on its ability to deliver high quality, uninterrupted access to its product over the Internet. Any system or network failure that causes interruptions in the Company’s Internet operations could have a material adverse effect on the business, financial condition            or results of operations of the Company. The Company’s operations are dependent on its ability to successfully expand its network and integrate new and emerging technologies and equipment into its network, which are likely to increase the risk of system failure and cause unforeseen strain upon the network. The Company’s operations also are dependent on the Company’s protection of its hardware and other equipment from damage from natural disasters such as fires,            floods, hurricanes, and earthquakes, or other sources of power loss, telecommunications failures or similar occurrences.

          Significant or prolonged system failures could damage the reputation of the Company and result in the loss of customers. Such damage or losses could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s ability to obtain new subscribers and customers, and on the Company’s business, prospects, financial condition and results of            operations.

**          Security Risks**. Despite the implementation of network security measures by the Company, such as limiting physical and network access to its routers, its Internet access systems and information services are vulnerable to computer viruses, break-ins and similar disruptive problems caused by its customers or other Internet users.            Such

22

----

problems caused by third parties could lead to interruption, delays or cessation in service to the Company’s Internet customers. Furthermore, such inappropriate use of the Internet by third parties could also potentially jeopardize the security of confidential information stored in the computer systems of the Company’s customers and other parties connected to the Internet, which may deter potential            subscribers. Persistent security problems continue to plague public and private data networks. Recent break-ins, “worms” and “viruses” reported in the press and otherwise have reached computers connected to the Internet at major corporations and Internet access providers and have involve the theft of information, including incidents in which hackers bypassed firewalls by posing as trusted computers. Alleviating problems caused by computer viruses, worms,            break-ins or other problems caused by third parties may require significant expenditures of capital and resources by the Company, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company. Until more comprehensive security technologies are developed, the security and privacy concerns of existing and potential customers may inhibit the growth of the Internet service industry in general and the Company’s customer base and revenues in particular. Moreover, if the Company            experiences a breach of network security or privacy, there can be no assurance that the Company’s customers will not assert or threaten claims against the Company based on or arising out of such breach, or that any such claims will not be upheld, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.

**          Risks Associated with Domain Names**. The Company currently utilizes its domain names “CreditRiskMonitor.com” and “crmz.com” in its business. The acquisition and maintenance of domain names generally is regulated by governmental agencies and their designees. For example, in the United States, the National Science            Foundation has appointed Network Solutions, Inc. as the exclusive registrar for the “.com”, “.net” and “.org” generic top-level domains. The regulation of domain names in the United States and in foreign countries is subject to change. Governing bodies may establish additional top-level domains, appoint additional domain name registrars or modify the requirements for holding domain names. As a result, there can be no assurance that the Company            will be able to acquire or maintain relevant domain names in the United States and all other countries in which it may conduct business. Furthermore, the relationship between regulations governing domain names and laws protecting trademarks and similar proprietary rights is unclear. The Company, therefore, may be unable to prevent third parties from acquiring domain names that are similar to, infringe upon or otherwise decrease the value of its trademarks and other proprietary            rights. Any such inability could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.

**          Governmental Regulation and Legal Uncertainties**. The Company is not currently subject to direct regulation by any domestic or foreign governmental agency, other than regulations applicable to businesses generally and laws or regulations directly applicable to access to online commerce. However, due to the increasing popularity and use of            the Internet and other online services, it is possible that a number of laws and regulations may be adopted with respect to the Internet or other online services covering issues such as user privacy, pricing, content, copyrights, distribution and characteristics and quality of

23

----

products and services. Furthermore, the growth and development of the market for online commerce may prompt calls for more stringent consumer protection laws that may impose additional burdens on those companies conducting business online. The adoption of any additional laws or regulations may decrease the growth of the Internet or other online services, which could, in turn, decrease the demand for the            Company’s products and services and increase the Company’s cost of doing business, or otherwise have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations. Moreover, the applicability to the Internet and other online services of existing laws in various jurisdictions governing issues such as property ownership, sales and other taxes, libel and personal privacy is uncertain and may take years to resolve. Any            such new legislation or regulation, the application of laws and regulations from jurisdictions whose laws do not currently apply to the Company’s business, or the application of existing laws and regulations to the Internet and other online services could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.

**          Proprietary Rights**. The Company relies and expects to continue to rely on a combination of copyright, trademark and trade secret laws and contractual restrictions to establish and protect its technology. The Company does not currently have any issued patents or registered copyrights.

          The Company has a policy to require employees and consultants to execute confidentiality and technology ownership agreements upon the commencement of their relationships with the Company. There can be no assurance that the steps taken by the Company will be adequate to prevent misappropriation of its technology or other proprietary rights, or that the            Company’s competitors will not independently develop technologies that are substantially equivalent or superior to the Company’s technology. There can be no assurance that the Company’s trademark applications will result in any trademark registrations, or that, if registered, any registered trademark will be held valid and enforceable if challenged.

          In addition, to the extent the Company becomes involved in litigation to enforce or defend its intellectual property rights, such litigation can be a lengthy and costly process causing diversion of effort and resources by the Company and its management with no guarantee of success.

**          Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002**. Beginning with the enactment of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, a significant number of new corporate governance requirements have been adopted or proposed by the SEC. Although we currently comply with all current requirements, we may not be successful in complying with these requirements in the future. In            addition, certain of these requirements may require us to make changes to our corporate governance.

**CREDITRISKMONITOR.COM, INC.NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**

**NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS**

CreditRiskMonitor.com, Inc. (also referred to as the “Company” or “CRMZ”) provides a totally interactive business-to-business Internet-based service designed specifically for corporate credit professionals. This service is sold predominantly to corporations located in the United States. In addition, the Company is a re-distributor of international credit reports in the United States. 

**NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES**

**Use of Estimates**

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the            reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates. 

**Cash and Cash Equivalents**

The Company has invested some of its excess cash in debt instruments of the United States Government. All highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less are considered cash equivalents. 

**Property and Equipment**

Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation is provided on the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the asset. Assets under capital leases are recorded at the lower of the fair market value of the asset or the present value of future minimum lease payments. Assets under capital leases are amortized on the straight-line method over their primary term. Estimated useful lives are generally as            follows: fixtures, equipment and software—3 to 6 years; capitalized leases—3 to 5 years; and leasehold improvements—lower of life or term of lease. 

**Goodwill**

In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets”, goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets are no longer amortized, but are reviewed for impairment at least annually and if a triggering event were to occur in an interim period. Goodwill impairment is determined using a two-step process. The first step of the impairment            test is used to identify potential impairment by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit to the book value, including goodwill. If the fair value of a reporting unit exceeds its book value, goodwill of the reporting unit is not considered impaired and the second step of

**CREDITRISKMONITOR.COM, INC.            NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**

the impairment test is not required. If the book value of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, the second step of the impairment test is performed to measure the amount of impairment loss, if any. The second step of the impairment test compares the implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill with the book value of that goodwill. If the book value of the reporting unit’s goodwill exceeds the implied fair            value of that goodwill, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to that excess. The implied fair value of goodwill is determined in the same manner as the amount of goodwill recognized in a business combination. The Company completed its annual goodwill impairment tests for 2008 and 2007 during the fourth quarter of each year and determined there was no impairment of existing goodwill. 

**Long-Lived Assets**

The Company reviews its long-lived amortizable assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable in accordance with SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets”. Recoverability of assets held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to undiscounted pre-tax future net            cash flows expected to be generated by that asset. An impairment loss is recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. As of December 31, 2008, management believes no impairment of long-lived assets has occurred. 

**Income Taxes**

The Company provides for deferred income taxes resulting from temporary differences between financial statement and income tax reporting. Temporary differences are differences between the amounts of assets and liabilities reported for financial statement purposes and their tax bases. Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for temporary differences that will be taxable in future years’ tax returns. Deferred tax assets are            recognized for temporary differences that will be deductible in future years’ tax returns and for operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance if it is deemed more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. 

**Revenue Recognition**

CRMZ’s North American and worldwide service is sold on a subscription basis pursuant to customer contracts that span varying periods of time, but are generally for a period of one year. The Company initially records amounts billed as accounts receivable and defers the related revenue until persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, fees are fixed or determinable, and collection is reasonably assured. Revenues are            recognized ratably over the related subscription period. Revenue from the Company’s third-party international credit report service is recognized as information is delivered and products and services are used by customers.

**Income Per Share**

Income per share is computed under the provisions of SFAS No. 128, “Earnings Per Share”. Amounts reported as basic and diluted net income per share for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2008 reflect the net income for the year divided by the weighted average of common shares outstanding during the year and the weighted average of common shares outstanding adjusted for the effects of potentially            dilutive securities (see Note 11). 

**Fair Value of Financial Instruments**

The Company follows the provisions of SFAS No. 107, “Disclosure about Fair Value of Financial Instruments”. This pronouncement requires that the Company calculate the fair value of financial instruments and include this additional information in the notes to the financial statements when the fair value is different than the book value of those financial instruments. The Company believes the recorded value of cash and            cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and accounts payable and other liabilities approximates fair value because of the short maturity of these financial instruments. The Company’s promissory note was originally discounted, as appropriate, to bear an interest rate that represents the cost of borrowings with third-party lenders. Management believes that the carrying value of the note approximates its fair value at December 31, 2007. 

**Comprehensive Income**

The Company adheres to the provisions of SFAS No. 130, “Reporting Comprehensive Income”. This pronouncement establishes standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income or loss and its components (revenues, expenses, gains, and losses). The statement requires that all items that are required to be recognized under accounting standards as components of comprehensive income be classified by their nature.            Furthermore, the Company is required to display the accumulated balances of other comprehensive income separately from retained earnings and additional paid-in capital in the equity section of the balance sheet. For the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, there were no items that gave rise to other comprehensive income or loss and net income equaled comprehensive income. 

**Segment Information**

The Company follows the provisions of SFAS No. 131, “Disclosures About Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information”. This pronouncement establishes standards for the way public business enterprises report information about operating segments in annual financial statements and requires that those enterprises report selected information about operating segments in interim financial reports issued to shareholders.            The pronouncement also establishes standards for related disclosure about products and services, geographic areas and major customers. The Company currently believes it operates in one segment.

**Stock-Based Compensation**

The Company adopted SFAS No. 123R “Share-Based Payment” (“SFAS 123R”) at the beginning of fiscal 2006 utilizing the modified prospective method, which does not require restatement of prior periods. The modified prospective method requires that compensation expense be recorded for all unvested stock options and restricted stock awards over the requisite service period (generally the vesting schedule).            

See Note 6 for more information regarding the Company’s stock compensation plan. 

**Fair Value Measurements**

In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“SFAS 157”). This statement defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. The fair value hierarchy is broken down into three levels based on the source of            inputs as follows: (a) Level 1 – valuations based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities; (b) Level 2 – valuations based on quoted prices in markets that are not active, or financial instruments for which all significant inputs are observable; either directly or indirectly; and (c) Level 3 – valuations based on prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that            are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable; thus, reflecting assumptions about the market participants. The statement was effective in the fiscal first quarter of 2008 except for non-financial assets and liabilities recognized or disclosed at fair value on a recurring basis, for which the effective date is for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008. The Company adopted SFAS 157 in the fiscal first quarter of 2008. The adoption of the pronouncement            did not have a material impact on the Company’s 2008 financial statements and the Company does not believe that the SFAS 157 requirements which were effective for the Company on January 1, 2009 will have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations and financial position. 

**Recently Issued Accounting Standards**

The FASB and the SEC had issued certain accounting pronouncements as of December 31, 2008 that will become effective in subsequent periods; however, management does not believe that any of those pronouncements would have significantly affected our financial accounting measurements or disclosures had they been in effect during the interim periods for which financial statements are included in this annual report, nor does            management believe those pronouncements would have a significant effect on our future financial position or results of operations.

**Concentrations of Credit Risk**

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk principally consist of cash, cash equivalents and accounts receivable. The Company maintains its cash and cash equivalents in bank deposit and other accounts, the balances of which, at times, may exceed Federally insured limits. Exposure to credit risk is reduced by placing such deposits in high credit quality financial institutions.            

The Company closely monitors the extension of credit to its customers. The Company’s accounts receivable balance is net of an allowance for doubtful accounts. The Company does not require collateral or other security to support credit sales, but provides an allowance for doubtful accounts based on historical experience and specifically identified risks.

| **NOTE 5** | ** –  INCOME TAXES** |

The Company has generated net operating loss (“NOL”) carryforwards for income tax purposes, which are available for carryforward against future taxable income. At December 31, 2008, the Company had Federal NOL carryforwards of approximately $4,398,000, which expire through 2026. 

The actual tax expense for 2008 and 2007 differs from the “expected” tax expense for those years (computed by applying the applicable United States federal corporate tax rate to income before income taxes) as follows:

**CREDITRISKMONITOR.COM, INC.            NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**

Prior to 2005 the Company had never reported income from operations. Although the Company was profitable for the last 3 years the current economic climate creates major uncertainty that the Company will continue to be profitable thus creating the rebuttable presumption that a full valuation allowance continues to be required for its deferred tax assets. Therefore, no deferred tax benefit has been recorded and a full valuation            allowance has been charged against the related deferred tax assets because the Company does not consider it more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will be realized. 

The net change in the total valuation allowance for the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007 was a decrease of $210,493 and $302,033, respectively. 

|       |                                                                        |

| **NOTE 6** | **– COMMON STOCK, STOCK OPTIONS, AND STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS** |

**Common Stock**

At December 31, 2008, 675,500 shares of the Company’s authorized common stock were reserved for issuance upon exercise of outstanding options under its stock option plan. 

**Preferred Stock**

The Company’s Articles of Incorporation provide that the Board of Directors has the authority, without further action by the holders of the outstanding common stock, to issue up to five million shares of preferred stock from time to time in one or more series. The Board of Directors shall fix the consideration to be paid, but not less than par value thereof, and to fix the terms of any such series, including dividend            rights, dividend rates, conversion or exchange rights, voting rights, rights and terms of redemption (including sinking fund provisions), the redemption price and the liquidation preference of such series. As of December 31, 2008, the Company does not have any preferred stock outstanding. 

**Stock Options and Stock Appreciation Rights**

At December 31, 2008, the Company has one stock option plan: the 1998 Long-Term Incentive Plan. 

The 1998 Long-Term Incentive Plan authorizes the grant of incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options, stock appreciation rights (SARs), restricted stock, bonus stock, and performance shares to employees, consultants, and non-employee directors of the Company. The exercise price of each option shall not be less than the fair market value of the common stock at the date of grant. The total number of the Company’s            shares that may be awarded under this plan is 1,500,000 shares of common stock. At December 31, 2008, there were options outstanding for 582,500 shares of common stock under this plan. 

Options expire on the date determined, but not more than ten years from the date of grant. The plan terminates ten years from the date of stockholder approval. All of the options granted may be exercised

The fair value of each option is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model that uses the weighted average assumptions noted in the following table. Expected volatilities are based on historical volatility of our stock through the date of grant. The Company uses the simplified method under Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107, “Valuation of Share-Based Payment Arrangements for Public            Companies”, to estimate the options’ expected term. The risk-free interest rate used is based on the U.S. Treasury constant maturities at the time of grant having a term that approximates the expected life of the option.

The aggregate intrinsic value represents the total pretax intrinsic value, based on options with an exercise price less than the Company’s closing stock price of $0.83 as of December 31, 2008, which would have been received by the option holders had those option holders exercised their options as of that date. The aggregate intrinsic value of options outstanding and exercisable as of December 31, 2008 and 2007 was $-0- and            $1,079,610, respectively. 

As of December 31, 2008, the total compensation cost related to unvested stock-based awards granted to employees under the Company’s stock option plan but not yet recognized was $263,000. This cost will be amortized on a straight-line basis over a weighted average term of 3.97 years and will be adjusted for subsequent changes in estimated forfeitures.

Based on that evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of the end of such period, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective. 

          There have not been any changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) during its fiscal fourth quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal            control over financial reporting. 

**Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting**

          The Company’s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer,            the Company conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of its internal control over financial reporting based on criteria established in the framework in *Internal Control — Integrated Framework* issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on this evaluation, the Company’s management concluded that its internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2008. 

          Internal controls over financial reporting, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, internal control over financial reporting determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and may not prevent or detect all misstatements. Moreover, projections of any evaluation            of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. 

          This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission

|               |                                                                                                                                                        |
|--------------------|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|   • | Appoint, evaluate, compensate, oversee the work of, and if appropriate terminate, the independent auditor, who shall report directly to the Committee.      |
|               |                                                                                                                                                        |
|   • | Approve in advance all audit engagement fees and terms of engagement as well as all audit and non-audit services to be provided by the independent auditor. |

          In performing these functions, the Audit Committee meets periodically with the independent auditors and management to review their work and confirm that they are properly discharging their respective responsibilities.

(1) The amounts in this column reflect bonuses awarded for the fiscal year shown but paid in the subsequent fiscal year.

(2) Represents the compensation costs of stock option awards for financial reporting purposes for the year under SFAS 123R, rather than an amount paid to or realized by the Named Executive Officer. See Note 6 of the Notes to Financial Statements for a discussion of the assumptions used in calculating the aggregate grant date fair value computed in accordance with SFAS 123R. The SFAS 123R value as of            the grant date for stock options is spread over the number of months of service required for the grant to become non-forfeitable. There can be no assurance that the SFAS 123R amounts will ever by realized. 

(3) Beginning January 20, 1999 and continuing through June 30, 2003, in order to conserve the Company’s cash during this start-up period, Mr. Flum agreed to defer a portion of his annual salary. As of June 30, 2003, the cumulative non-interest bearing amount deferred was $238,750.

In July 2004, the Company’s Board of Directors agreed to issue 200,000 shares of the Company’s common stock with a fair value of $90,000 as partial payment of this liability as well as paying, in cash, the balance to the Chief Executive Officer, representing the tax “gross-up” on this stock award, thereby reducing the cumulative deferred amount by approximately $150,000 to $88,890. In            December 2006, the Company’s Board of Directors agreed to allow Mr. Flum to exercise stock options for 15,000 shares of the Company’s common stock with an exercise price of $15,000 as partial payment of this liability as well as paying, in cash, $15,000 to Mr. Flum, representing the tax “gross-up” on this stock issuance. This transaction reduced the cumulative deferred amount still payable to $58,890. In April 2008, the Company paid in full the remaining            deferred compensation of $58,890 owed to Mr. Flum. 

(4) In August 2008, Mr. Fensterstock exercised non-qualified stock options pursuant to which the Company reported $149,985 as ordinary income to Mr. Fensterstock, representing the difference of the then fair market value of the shares and the exercise price.

          All of the options granted may be exercised after three years from the date of grant in installments upon the Company attaining certain specified gross revenue and pre-tax profit margin objectives as set forth in the table below, unless such objectives are modified in the sole discretion of the Board of Directors. In order to achieve the vesting of the            applicable percentage of options at each level, both the minimum sales amount and the pre-tax operating margin tests for that level must be met.
