Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. Introduction The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our accompanying financial statements and the notes to those financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report. The following discussion includes forward-looking statements that reflect our plans, estimates and beliefs. Our actual results could differ materially from those discussed in these forward- looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed below and elsewhere in this Annual Report. Overview Revenue Recognition. We recognize revenues when survey data is delivered to the client in accordance with the terms of our agreements. Research products are delivered within a short period, generally ranging from a few days to approximately eight weeks. An appropriate deferral is made for direct costs related to contracts in process, and no revenue is recognized until delivery of the data has taken place. Billings rendered in advance of services being performed, as well as customer deposits received in advance, are recorded as a current liability included in deferred revenue. We are required to estimate contract losses, if any, and provide for such losses in the period they are determined and estimable. We do not believe that there are realistic alternatives to our revenue recognition policy given the short period of service delivery and the requirement to deliver completed surveys to our customers. We do not believe there is significant risk of recognizing revenue prematurely since our contracts are standardized, the earnings process is short, and no single project accounts for a significant portion of our revenue.

DATASCENSION INC Files SEC form 8-K, Change in Directors or Principal Officers

Item 5.02 Departure of Director and Officer; Appointment of Officer. On December 31, 2008, Scott Kincer resigned as the CEO, President and a Director of the issuer to pursue other opportunities. Pursuant to a Separation Agreement between the parties which is effective as of December 31, 2008, the issuer is paying Mr. Kincer the sum of $64,750 over a period of five and one half months as well as reimbursing him for accrued and unpaid expenses. The agreement contains other standard terms and provisions as to releases and the like. Also as of December 31, 2008, the issuer's Board of Director's appointed Lou Persico, a member of the issuer's Board of Directors, as the issuer's Chairman, CEO and President. Lou Persico, MBA, CPA has over 25 years of financial and operational experience in private and public corporations. Persico began his career in public accounting and subsequently, he was employed by a series of "Fortune 100 Companies" beginning with American Cyanamid/Wyeth Pharmaceuticals where he held the roles of controller and finance director for almost 10 years operating at overseas locations in Madrid, Spain, San Juan, Puerto Rico and Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Persico continued his tenure with other "Blue Chip" companies in a natural succession of increasingly responsible senior financial positions at The PerkinElmer Co., Pearle Vision, Technicolor, Sara Lee, Cambridge Technology Partners and Arthur D.

However, for the past 7 years Persico's focus has been with venture-backed start-up companies as CFO (the lead investor being Insight Venture Partners, a $3 billion private equity firm). Persico went on to sell one of the early stage companies to Quest Software (QSFT), a publicly traded company, after scaling the business from $1.5M to $20M in 13 months for $61M. At a large public enterprise, Cambridge Technology Partners (CATP), Persico was instrumental in building out the global infrastructure of the company from $200M to nearly $700M in world...
