General

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany amounts have been eliminated.

In the opinion of management of Chyron Corporation (the "Company" or "Chyron"), the accompanying unaudited consolidated interim financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company as of ~~June~~September 30, 2012 and the consolidated results of its operations, its comprehensive ~~income (loss)~~loss and its cash flows for the periods ended ~~June~~September 30, 2012 and 2011. The results of operations for such interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any other interim period or for the year ending December 31, 2012. In addition, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported and related disclosures. Estimates made by management include inventory valuations, stock and bonus compensation, allowances for doubtful accounts, income taxes, pension assumptions and reserves for warranty and incurred but not reported health insurance claims. Estimates, by their nature, are based on judgment and available information. Also, during interim periods, certain costs and expenses are allocated among periods based on an estimate of time expired, benefit received, or other activity associated with the periods. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates. The Company has not segregated its cost of sales between costs of products and costs of services as it is not practicable to segregate such costs. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. For further information, refer to the audited consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011. The December 31, 2011 figures included herein were derived from such audited consolidated financial statements.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In July 2012, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standard Update No. 2012-02, Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment. This guidance gives companies the option to perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that an asset might be impaired and whether it is necessary to perform a quantitative test. The updated accounting guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012, with early adoption permitted. The Company believes that this guidance will have no impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Earnings (Loss) Per Share

Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is based on the sum of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and common stock equivalents. Potentially dilutive shares are excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share when their effect is anti-dilutive. Shares excluded from the calculation are as follows (in thousands):

	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,				Three Months Ended September 30,				Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2012		2011		2012		2011		2012		2011		2012		2011
Weighted average shares which are not included in the calculation of diluted earnings (loss) per share because their impact is anti-dilutive:
Stock options		3,286		391		3,230		1,881		3,444		2,098		3,301		2,170
Restricted stock units		489		111		523		271		379		1,968		475		1,854
		3,775		502		3,753		2,152		3,823		4,066		3,776		4,024

2. LONG-TERM INCENTIVE PLANS

Pursuant to the 2008 Long-term Incentive Plan (the ~~“Plan”~~"Plan"), the Company may grant stock options (non-qualified or incentive), stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units and other share-based awards to employees, directors and other persons who serve the Company. The Plan is overseen by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors, which approves the timing and circumstances under which share-based awards may be granted. At ~~June~~September 30, 2012, there were ~~0.7~~0.9 million shares available to be granted under the Plan. The Company issues new shares to satisfy the exercise or release of share-based awards. Under the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification Topic ~~for~~718, Stock Compensation, all share-based payments are required to be recognized in the statement of operations based on their fair values at the date of grant.

The fair value of each option award is estimated using a Black-Scholes option valuation model. Expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of the price of the ~~Company’s~~Company's stock. The risk-free interest rate is based on U.S. Treasury issues with a term equal to the expected life of the option. The Company uses historical data to estimate expected dividend yield, expected life and forfeiture rates. Options generally have a life of 10 years and have either time-based or performance-based vesting features. Time-based awards generally vest over a three year period, while the performance-based awards vest upon the achievement of specific performance targets. ~~Included in awards granted during the six months ended June~~At September 30, 2012, ~~are one~~there were 0.9 million options outstanding that will vest upon the achievement of certain financial conditions infor 2013 or will expire if the performance criteria are not met. No expense was recognized for these awards. If in the future it is probable that these awards will be earned, the Company will commence recording an expense for them. The fair values of the options granted during the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2012 and 2011, were estimated based on the following weighted average assumptions:

	Three Months Ended June 30,						Six Months Ended June 30,						Three Months Ended September 30,						Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2012			2011			2012			2011			2012			2011			2012			2011
Expected volatility		68.49	%		71.48	%		69.44	%		71.51	%		73.18	%		70.72	%		71.46	%		71.11	%
Risk-free interest rate		0.94	%		2.17	%		1.32	%		2.18	%		0.52	%		1.42	%		0.56	%		1.79	%
Expected dividend yield		0.00	%		0.00	%		0.00	%		0.00	%		0.00	%		0.00	%		0.00	%		0.00	%
Expected life (in years)		6.0			6.0			6.0			6.0			3.76			6.0			3.23			6.0
Estimated fair value per option granted	$	0.85		$	1.37		$	0.97		$	1.37		$	0.55		$	1.32		$	0.70		$	1.34

The following table presents a summary of the Company's stock option activity for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2012:

	Number of Options
Outstanding at January 1, 2012		3,224,879
Granted		~~1,419,500~~1,498,452
Exercised		(1,667	)
Forfeited and cancelled		(~~160,031~~399,339	)
Outstanding at ~~June~~September 30, 2012		~~4,484,348~~4,322,325

The Company also grants restricted stock units, or RSUs, that entitle the holder to a share of Company common stock. The fair value of an RSU is equal to the market value of a share of common stock on the date of grant. All RSUs that are currently outstanding have time-based vesting features over a one to three year period.

The following table presents a summary of the ~~Company’s RSUs~~Company's RSU activity for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2012:

	Shares
Nonvested at January 1, 2012		528,443
Granted		152,328
Vested and settled in shares		(~~278,143~~311,014	)
Forfeited and cancelled		(~~394~~10,394	)
Nonvested at ~~June~~September 30, 2012		~~402,234~~359,363

In addition, the Company also has a 2012 Management Incentive Compensation Plan (“("the 2012 Incentive ~~Plan”~~Plan") that entitles recipients to a combination of cash and equity awards based on achievement of certain performance and service conditions in the fiscal year ending December 31, 2012. No expense was recorded for these awards during the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2012 as it is not yet probable that the performance conditions will be met.

~~The Company amortizes share-based compensation expense over the vesting period on a straight line basis.~~ The impact on the ~~Company’s~~Company's results of operations of recording share-based compensation expense is as follows (in thousands):

~~The~~In August 2012, the Company ~~has~~entered into a ~~credit facility~~loan modification agreement and amended its loan and security agreement (the "Credit Facility") with ~~a U.S. bank which expires on December 29, 2012. The credit facility provides for a $1.5 million~~Silicon Valley Bank to extend the term of the Credit Facility to August 12, 2013, to increase the revolving line of credit ~~(“revolver”~~(the "Revolving Line") ~~with~~from $1.5 million to $3.0 million, and to add a term loan facility that can be used to purchase equipment in an ~~advance rate~~aggregate amount of up to $1.0 million (the "Term Loan").

Advances on the Revolving Line are limited to 80% of eligible accounts receivable. At ~~June~~September 30, 2012 available borrowings were approximately ~~$1.5~~$2.1 million ~~based on this formula~~ and no borrowings were outstanding. The ~~revolver~~Revolving Line continues to bear interest at a floating annual rate equal to Silicon Valley Bank's prime rate ("Prime") +1.75%.

Advances under the ~~credit facility~~Term Loan may be drawn until December 31, 2012 in minimum amounts of $0.25 million. The Term Loan bears interest at Prime ~~+1.75%.~~+2.25% and principal and interest will be repaid over thirty months. At September 30, 2012, no amounts were outstanding; however, on October 17, 2012, the Company took an advance of $0.35 million on the Term Loan.

The ~~credit facility~~Credit Facility is collateralized by the ~~Company’s~~Company's assets, except for (i) its intellectual property rights which are subject to a negative pledge arrangement with the bank, and (ii) any equipment whose purchase is financed by any other lender or lessor, solely to the extent the security agreement with such lender or lessor prohibits junior liens on such equipment, and only until the lien held by such lender or lessor is terminated or released with respect to such equipment. The Company is required to maintain financial covenants based on an adjusted quick ratio of at least 1.2 to 1.0, measured at each ~~month end,~~calendar month-end, and minimum tangible net worth of $18.5 million, increased by 60% of the sum of the gross proceeds received by the Company from any sale of its equity or incurrence of subordinated debt and any positive quarterly net income earned, measured at quarter end (both as defined as per the ~~credit facility)~~Credit Facility). As is usual and customary in such lending agreements, the agreements also contain certain nonfinancial requirements, such as required periodic reporting to the bank and various representations and warranties. The lending agreement also restricts the ~~Company’s~~Company's ability to pay dividends without the ~~bank’s~~bank's consent. The Company has been in compliance with all debt covenants since inception of the ~~credit facility.~~Credit Facility.

In 2009, the Company borrowed to finance capital equipment under the then existing credit facility which resulted in a term loan (the "2009 Term Loan") of $977 thousand payable over 36 months in equal monthly installments of principal plus accrued interest. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2012, the Company had repaid all principal and interest and there iswas no outstanding balance ~~under~~on the ~~credit facility.~~2009 Term Loan. Interest expense related to the ~~term loan~~2009 Term Loan was $1 thousand and ~~$11~~$15 thousand for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Interest expense related to the 2009 Term Loan was $0 and $4 thousand for the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

The ~~Company’s~~Company's policy is to fund the minimum contributions required under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA) and, subject to cash flow levels, the Company may choose to make a discretionary contribution to its pension plan to reduce the unfunded liability. In the first quarter of 2012, the Company made an additional contribution of $0.39 million in order to exceed an 80% funding level as measured at January 1, 2012. The Company also made required contributions of ~~$0.1~~$0.5 million in ~~each~~the nine months ended September 30, 2012 for a total of $0.89 million for the ~~first and second quarters in 2012.~~year to date. Based on current assumptions, the Company expects to make required contributions of ~~$0.5~~$0.36 million in the next twelve months.

The Company has ~~adopted~~ a 401(k) Plan exclusively for the benefit of participants and their beneficiaries. All U.S. employees of the Company are eligible to participate in the 401(k) Plan. The Company may make discretionary matching contributions of the compensation contributed by the participant. The Company has the option of making the matching contributions in cash or through shares of Company common stock. During the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2012 and 2011, the Company issued ~~110~~175 thousand and 5791 thousand shares of common stock in connection with the Company match for the ~~Company’s~~Company's 401(k) Plan in lieu of an aggregate cash match of ~~$153~~$220 thousand and ~~$129~~$197 thousand, respectively.

6. PRODUCT WARRANTY

The Company provides product warranties for its various products, typically for one year. Liabilities for the estimated future costs of repair or replacement are established and charged to cost of sales at the time the sale is recognized. The Company established its reserve based on historical data, taking into consideration specific product information. The following table sets forth the movement in the warranty reserve (in thousands):

	Three Months Ended June 30,					Six Months Ended June 30,						Three Months Ended September 30,					Nine Months Ended September 30,

7. INCOME TAXES

The components of deferred income taxes are as follows (in thousands):

	June 30, 2012		December 31, 2011		September 30, 2012		December 31, 2011
Deferred tax assets:

	$	19,122	$	18,502	$	19,428	$	18,502

In accordance with accounting standards, the Company has not recorded a deferred tax asset related to the settlement of share-based awards in the accompanying consolidated financial statements because it will not result in the reduction of income taxes payable, due to the existence of net operating loss carryforwards. The cumulative amount of unrecognized tax benefits ~~at June 30, 2012~~associated with these awards was approximately $0.9 million at September 30, 2012, and if the Company is able to utilize this benefit in the future it would result in a credit to additional paid in capital.

At ~~June~~September 30, 2012, the Company had U.S. federal net operating loss carryforwards ~~(“NOLs”~~("NOLs") of approximately ~~$49.2~~$50 million expiring between the years 2012 through ~~2030.~~2031. Approximately $7.5 million of the NOLs are set to expire in 2012 if not utilized. The remaining amount of NOLs of ~~$41.7~~approximately $42.5 million are not scheduled to expire until 2018 and beyond. Based on ~~management’s~~management's current estimate of book income and the uncertainty of the timing of future taxable income, it was determined that it is more likely than not that the Company will not be able to generate enough taxable income in the respective carry forward periods to realize all of its NOLs. Consequently, in the third quarter of 2011, the Company recorded a $2.7 million valuation allowance related to the $7.5 million of the NOLs that are set to expire in 2012, based on ~~management’s~~management's expectation that the NOLs may not be realized. While the Company believes its estimates and assumptions are reasonable, if the Company does not generate enough taxable income to fully realize the balance of net operating loss carryforwards, additional valuation allowances or tax provisions may be required.

The components of the provision for income tax ~~benefit~~ (expense) ~~for the periods ended~~benefit are as follows (in thousands):

Income tax (expense) benefit													$	302		$	(2,604	)	$	899		$	(2,322	)

The difference between the ~~Company’s~~Company's effective income tax rate and the federal statutory rate is primarily due to the amount of expense associated with its share-based payment arrangements and the portion thereof that will give rise to tax deductions.

The Company files U.S. federal income tax returns as well as income tax returns in various states and one foreign jurisdiction. The Company may be subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service ~~(“IRS”~~("IRS") for calendar years ~~2008~~2009 through 2011 under the normal statute of limitations. Additionally, any net operating losses that were generated in prior years and utilized in these years may also be subject to examination by the IRS. Generally, for state tax purposes, the ~~Company’s 2007~~Company's 2008 through 2011 tax years remain open for examination by tax authorities under four year statutes of limitations, however, certain state statutes of limitations may remain open for six to ten years.

8. CONTINGENCIES

The Company is subject to litigation and other claims that arise in the ordinary course of business. While the ultimate result of the ~~Company’s~~Company's outstanding legal matter described under ~~“Legal Proceedings”~~"Legal Proceedings" in the ~~Company’s~~Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011 cannot presently be determined, the Company does not expect that the ultimate disposition will have a material adverse effect on its results of operations or financial condition. However, legal matters are inherently unpredictable and subject to significant uncertainties, some of which are beyond the ~~Company’s~~Company's control. As such, there can be no assurance that the final outcome will not have a material adverse effect upon the ~~Company’s~~Company's financial condition or results of operations.

Overview

We currently exist in a worldwide TV market that continues to be persistently price competitive, and where customer demand for purchases of new graphics systems, products and services remains subdued. While our customers are experiencing some degree of recovery in their advertising revenues, they continue to emphasize cost containment and this is reflected in their capital spending.

The overall economic recovery is still tenuous, and our professional media customers continue to face fiscal challenges. These customers are in the process of transforming their businesses to address new opportunities and threats. To help our customers transition their business models we have developed workflow solutions for them that we believe will bring cost advantages over traditional processes. These solutions are designed to help our media clients do more with less. By leveraging our Cloud-based technologies to deliver low-cost, scalable, collaborative applications and services, we aim to help our customers transform their high fixed-cost business models to lower, variable and more flexible cost models. We have no intention of diminishing our product business. Rather, we are finding that adoption of our service offerings results in new product and systems sales and vice versa.

Net ~~Sales.~~sales. Revenues for the quarter ended ~~June~~September 30, 2012 were ~~$7.7~~$7.2 million, a decrease of ~~$1.7~~$0.3 million, or ~~19%~~3%, from the ~~$9.4~~$7.5 million reported in the quarter ended ~~June~~September 30, 2011. Of these amounts, North American revenues were $5.2 million in the quarter ended ~~June~~September 30, 2012 and ~~$7.1~~$5.9 million in the quarter ended ~~June~~September 30, 2011. Revenues derived from other international regions were ~~$2.5~~$2.0 million in the quarter ended ~~June~~September 30, 2012 as compared to ~~$2.3~~$1.6 million in the quarter ended ~~June~~September 30, 2011.

Revenues for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2012 were ~~$15.6~~$22.8 million, a decrease of ~~$0.4~~$0.6 million, or 3%, from the ~~$16.0~~$23.4 million in the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2011.

We have experienced a slowdown in our product revenue stream as a result of delays in spending as broadcasters emphasize cost control and reschedule their capital expenditures. This decline was experienced in North America and more markedly in Europe where the economy has stalled. This was offset by improvements in our Asian and Latin American markets from several major program upgrades.

~~While our~~Our services ~~revenue was fairly flat~~revenues have grown 13% in the ~~second quarter~~three and nine months periods of 2012 as compared to ~~2011, our year to date services revenues in 2012 have grown 12% over the same period in the prior year.~~2011. This growth is primarily attributable to increased sales of software and hardware maintenance contracts for our broadcast graphics products and increases in revenue from Axis.

Gross ~~Profit~~profit. Gross margins for the quarters ended ~~June~~September 30, 2012 and 2011 were 68% and 69%, respectively. Gross margins for the nine month periods ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 were 69% and 70%, respectively. ~~Gross margins for~~The decline in gross margin of 1% in each of the ~~six~~quarterly and nine month periods ~~ended June 30,~~in 2012 as compared to the prior year, is attributable to the decline in product revenues, and ~~2011 were 70%.

Selling, ~~General~~general and ~~Administrative Expenses~~administrative expenses. Selling, general and administrative (“("SG&A) expenses are as follows (in thousands):

The decrease in sales and marketing expenses in the third quarter of 2012, compared to the same period in 2011, is primarily a result of lower commissions earned on lower revenues. The increase in spending in sales and marketing expenses in ~~all periods~~the nine months ended September 30, 2012 is due to additional compensation and related direct costs of increasing our senior sales, marketing and support staff. As planned, we made strategic hires in key sales positions and expanded our sales and marketing efforts overseas. In addition, key positions were filled in professional services as we increase our emphasis on services that complement our products business.

The decrease in general and administrative expenses in the third quarter of 2012, compared to the same period in 2011, is a result of lower travel expenses and reduced consulting costs. The general and administrative expenses for the ~~three and six~~nine month ~~periods~~period in 2011 ~~include~~includes higher legal and lawsuit settlement costs of approximately $0.3 million relating to a lawsuit that was settled in 2011. In addition, the ~~three and six~~nine month ~~periods~~period in 2011 ~~include~~includes recruiting and executive search costs of $0.1 million and compensation related costs of $0.1 million for an executive position that was vacated. Since these costs did not recur in 2012, we experienced a modest decline in ~~all periods presented. We expect that SG&A expenses will not increase for the remainder of~~our year to date 2012 ~~as we focus on cost control.~~expenses.

Research and ~~Development Expenses~~development expenses. Research and development ("R&D") expenses were ~~$1.9 million and $1.6~~$1.8 million in the ~~quarters~~three month periods ended ~~June~~September 30, 2012 and ~~2011, respectively.~~2011. In the nine month period ended September 30, 2012 R&D ~~expenses were $3.9~~costs increased to $5.7 million ~~and $3.3~~compared to $5.0 million in the ~~six month periods~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, ~~2012 and 2011, respectively.~~2011. The majority of the increase in R&D spending in ~~all periods presented~~this period has resulted from our focus on integrating Axis with our graphics products and systems and future product introductions.

Interest expense. Interest expense declined slightly in the three and ~~six~~nine month periods ended ~~June~~September 30, 2012 as compared to the ~~comparable~~same periods in ~~2011, as we continued~~2011. This decrease was attributable to ~~make monthly principal payments~~declining outstanding balances on our term loan ~~and the outstanding principal balance was reduced.~~from 2009. We made the final payment on this term loan in May 2012.

We continue to be exposed to foreign currency and exchange risk in the normal course of business due to our revenues that are negotiated in British Pounds Sterling. However, we believe that it is not material to our near-term financial position or results of operations.

Income tax benefit (expense), net. In the ~~second~~third quarter of 2012 and 2011, we recorded an income tax benefit of ~~$0.5~~$0.3 million and an expense of ~~$0.1~~$2.6 million, respectively. In the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2012 and 2011 we recorded aan income tax benefit of ~~$0.6~~$0.9 million and ~~$0.3~~an expense of $2.3 million, respectively. In the third quarter of 2011, it was determined, based on management's estimate of book income and the uncertainty of the timing of future taxable income, that it was more likely than not that we would not realize a portion of our net operating loss carryforwards and, therefore, recorded a charge of $2.7 million. The difference between our effective income tax rate and the federal statutory rate is primarily due to the amount of expense associated with our share-based payment arrangements and the portion thereof that will give rise to tax deductions. Furthermore, share-based payments may result in tax deductions that do not result in a tax benefit in the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements because it will not result in the reduction of income taxes payable, due to the existence of net operating loss carryforwards.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At ~~June~~September 30, 2012, we had cash and cash equivalents on hand of ~~$2.8~~$2.2 million and working capital of ~~$6.2~~$5.4 million. In the first ~~six~~nine months of 2012 we used approximately ~~$1.0~~$1.4 million in cash for operations primarily due to the net loss that was incurred.

Also, during the ~~six~~nine month period ended ~~June~~September 30, 2012, we made contributions to our pension plan totaling ~~$0.6~~$0.89 million, including a $0.39 million contribution in order to exceed an 80% funding level, measured at January 1, 2012. Based on current assumptions, we expect to make contributions to our pension plan of ~~$0.5~~$0.36 million over the next twelve months as required under ERISA. Our pension plan assets were valued at ~~$4.9~~$5.3 million and $4.1 million at ~~June~~September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. Our investment strategy remains the same and we believe that the pension ~~plan’s~~plan's assets are more than adequate to meet pension plan obligations for the next twelve months.

During the remainder of 2012, we plan to expend approximately ~~$0.8~~$0.3 million ~~to make~~for our continuing efforts of making improvements to our existing U.S. based Axis co-location facility, and for another disaster recovery and backup co-location for our Axis services that will be funded from aadvances on our existing term loan ~~that we intend to enter into~~under our credit facility with ~~our U.S. bank.~~Silicon Valley Bank, as described below.

~~We have~~In August 2012, we entered into a ~~credit facility~~loan modification agreement and amended our loan and security agreement (the "Credit Facility") with ~~a U.S. bank which expires on December 29, 2012. The credit facility provides for a $1.5 million~~Silicon Valley Bank to extend the term of the Credit Facility to August 12, 2013, to increase the revolving line of credit ~~(“revolver”~~(the "Revolving Line")~~, with an advance rate of~~ from $1.5 million to $3.0 million, and to add a term loan facility that can be used to purchase equipment up to $1.0 million (the "Term Loan"). Advances on the Revolving Line are limited to 80% of eligible accounts receivable. At ~~June~~September 30, 2012, available borrowings were approximately ~~$1.5~~$2.1 million ~~based on this formula but~~and no borrowings were ~~outstanding~~outstanding. The Revolving Line bears interest at a floating annual rate equal to Silicon Valley Bank's prime rate ("Prime") +1.75%. Advances under the ~~revolver.~~ Term Loan may be drawn until December 31, 2012 in minimum amounts of $0.25 million. The Term Loan bears interest at Prime +2.25% and principal will be repaid over thirty months. At September 30, 2012, no amounts were outstanding; however, on October 17, 2012 we took an advance of $0.35 million on the Term Loan.

Pursuant to the ~~credit agreement,~~Credit Facility, we are required to maintain financial covenants based on an adjusted quick ratio of at least 1.2 to 1.0, measured at each calendar month-end, and minimum tangible net worth of $18.5 million, increased by 60% of the sum of the gross proceeds received by us from any sale of our equity or incurrence of subordinated debt and any positive quarterly net income earned, measured at quarter-end (both as defined in the ~~credit facility)~~Credit Facility). As is usual and customary in such lending agreements, the agreements also contain certain non-financial requirements, such as required periodic reporting to the bank and various representations and warranties. The lending agreement also restricts our ability to pay dividends without the ~~bank’s~~bank's consent. We have been and currently are in compliance with all debt covenants under the ~~credit facility.~~Credit Facility.

Our long-term success will depend on our ability to achieve and sustain profitable operating results and our ability to raise additional capital on acceptable terms should such additional capital be required. In the event that we are unable to achieve expected goals of profitability or raise sufficient additional capital, if needed, we may have to scale back or eliminate certain parts of our operations.

We believe that cash on hand, net cash to be generated in the business, and availability of funding under our ~~credit facilities,~~Credit Facility, will be sufficient to meet our cash needs for at least the next twelve months if we are able to achieve our planned results of operations and retain the availability of credit under our ~~lending agreement.~~Credit Facility.

If these sources of funds are not sufficient, we may need to reduce, delay or terminate our existing or planned products and services. We may also need to raise additional funds through one or more capital financings. To the extent that we raise additional capital through the sale of equity or convertible debt securities, the ownership interest of our existing stockholders will be diluted, and the terms may include liquidation or other preferences that adversely affect the rights of our stockholders. Debt financing, if available, may involve agreements that include covenants limiting or restricting our ability to take specific actions, such as incurring debt, making capital expenditures or declaring dividends. If we raise additional funds through collaborations, strategic alliances and licensing arrangements with third parties, we may have to relinquish valuable rights to our technologies or products, or grant licenses on terms that are not favorable to us.

There can be no assurance that additional funds will be available when we need them on terms that are acceptable to us, or at all. If adequate funds are not available to us on a timely basis, we may be required to delay, limit, reduce or terminate development activities for one or more of our products or services; or delay, limit, reduce or terminate our sales and marketing capabilities or other activities that may be necessary to commercialize one or more of our products or services.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, after evaluating the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in ~~paragraph (e)~~Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of ~~Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under~~ the Exchange ~~Act)~~ as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, have concluded that, based on such evaluation, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure, particularly during the period in which this ~~Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q~~report was being prepared.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting, identified in connection with the evaluation of such internal control, that occurred during our most recent completed quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

There have been no material changes to our legal proceedings as previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

~~As a smaller reporting company, we~~In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in Part I, Item 1A, "Risk Factors" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011, which could materially affect our business, financial condition or results of operations. The risks described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K and this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are not ~~required~~the only risks that we face. In addition, risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and/or results of operations. Other than the addition of the following risk factor, there have been no material changes in or additions to the risk factors included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011.

If we fail to continue to meet all applicable NASDAQ Global Market requirements and The NASDAQ Stock Market determines to delist our common stock, the delisting could adversely affect the market liquidity of our common stock, impair the value of your investment, and harm our business.

Our common stock is currently listed on the NASDAQ Global Market. In order to maintain that listing, we must satisfy minimum financial and other requirements. On November 7, 2012, we received notice from the Listing Qualifications Department of the NASDAQ Stock Market, or NASDAQ, that our common stock had not met the $1.00 per share minimum bid price requirement for the last 30 consecutive business days pursuant to NASDAQ Listing Rule 5450(a)(1) and that, if we were unable to demonstrate compliance with this requirement during the applicable grace periods, our common stock would be delisted after that time. The notification letter stated that pursuant to NASDAQ Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A) we would be afforded 180 calendar days, or until May 6, 2013, to regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement. In order to regain compliance, shares of our common stock must maintain a minimum closing bid price of at least $1.00 per share for a minimum of ten consecutive business days. If we do not regain compliance by May 6, 2013, NASDAQ will provide ~~information required by this Item.~~written notification to us that our common stock will be delisted. At that time, we may appeal NASDAQ's delisting determination to a NASDAQ Listing Qualifications Panel. Alternatively, we may be eligible for an additional 180 day grace period if we satisfy all of the requirements, other than the minimum bid price requirement, for listing on the NASDAQ Capital Market set forth in NASDAQ Listing Rule 5505. The closing bid price of our common stock on the NASDAQ Global Market was $0.55 on November 12, 2012.

While we intend to engage in efforts to regain compliance, and thus maintain our listing, there can be no assurance that we will be able to regain compliance during the applicable time periods set forth above. If we fail to continue to meet all applicable NASDAQ Global Market requirements in the future and NASDAQ determines to delist our common stock, the delisting could substantially decrease trading in our common stock and adversely affect the market liquidity of our common stock; adversely affect our ability to obtain financing on acceptable terms, if at all, for the continuation of our operations; and harm our business. Additionally, the market price of our common stock may decline further and stockholders may lose some or all of their investment.
