Applied Digital Solutions, Inc. ("Applied Digital," "we," "our," or "us") is filing this Current Report on Form 8-K to amend our consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005 and for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004, to reflect our majority-owned subsidiary, Digital Angel Corporation's ("Digital Angel"), former wholly-owned subsidiary, OuterLink Corporation ("OuterLink"), and our majority-owned subsidiary, InfoTech USA, Inc. ("InfoTech"), as discontinued operations and to modify the related disclosures in accordance with the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets."

During the three-months ended June 30, 2007, our board of directors approved the sale of InfoTech. In addition, on July 2, 2007, Digital Angel completed its sale of OuterLink. Pursuant to the terms of a stock purchase agreement, dated May 7, 2007, Digital Angel sold all of the issued and outstanding shares of stock of OuterLink for a purchase price of $1.0 million, subject to certain adjustments, based on OuterLink's closing balance sheet. Consideration consisted of a cash payment of $0.8 million and a promissory note of $0.2 million, which matures on December 31, 2007. The sale of OuterLink is more fully discussed in Digital Angel's Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on July 5, 2007. In our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006, as amended (the "2006 Annual Report"), we reported segment information for InfoTech as a separate segment, and we reported the operations of OuterLink in our GPS and Radio Communications segment. The operating results and financial condition of InfoTech and OuterLink have been included as part of the financial results from discontinued operations in the accompanying consolidated financial statements and, accordingly, our segment information has been modified. Reclassification of discontinued operations has no effect on our reported net (loss) income for any reporting period.

We are presenting the following information as exhibits to this Current Report on Form 8-K, which replaces the corresponding information contained in the 2006 Annual Report:

• Item 6. Selected Financial Data;

• Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations; and

• Item 8. Audited Consolidated Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.

This Current Report on Form 8-K does not reflect events occurring after the filing of the 2006 Annual Report originally filed with the SEC on April 6, 2007, and does not modify or update the disclosures therein in any way, other than as required to reflect the changes in discontinued operations for InfoTech and OuterLink as described above. In particular, this Current Report on Form 8-K does not update the disclosures contained in Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, other than as required to reflect the changes in discontinued operations.

IMPORTANT ADDITIONAL INFORMATION WILL BE FILED WITH THE SEC
