NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(in thousands, except per share amounts)

NOTE 1: NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

Wireless Ronin Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”) has prepared the condensed consolidated financial statements included herein, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the United States (“U.S.”) Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The condensed consolidated financial statements include the Company’s one wholly-owned subsidiary. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. However, the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to ensure the information presented is not misleading. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011.

The Company believes that all necessary adjustments, which consist only of normal recurring items, have been included in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements to present fairly the results of the interim periods. The results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the operating results to be expected for any subsequent interim period or for the year ending December 31, 2012.

Nature of Business and Operations

The Company is a Minnesota corporation that provides marketing technology solutions targeting specific food service, automotive and retail markets. The Company provides leading expertise in content and emerging digital media solutions, including dynamic digital signage, interactive kiosk, mobile, social media and web, that enable its customers to transform how they engage with their customers. The Company is able to provide an array of marketing technology solutions through its proprietary suite of software applications marketed as RoninCast®. RoninCast software and associated applications provide an enterprise, web-based or hosted content delivery system that manages, schedules and delivers digital content over wireless or wired networks. Additionally, RoninCast® software’s flexibility allows the Company to develop custom solutions for specific customer applications.

The Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Wireless Ronin Technologies (Canada), Inc., an Ontario, Canada provincial corporation located in Windsor, Ontario, develops “e-learning, e-performance support and e-marketing” solutions for business customers. E-learning solutions are software-based instructional systems developed specifically for customers, primarily in sales force training applications. E-performance support systems are interactive systems produced to increase product literacy of customer sales staff. E-marketing products are developed to increase customer knowledge of and interaction with customer products.

The Company and its subsidiary sell products and services primarily throughout North America.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

A summary of the significant accounting policies consistently applied in the preparation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements follows:

1. Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Wireless Ronin Technologies, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary. All inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(in thousands, except per share amounts)

 

2. Foreign Currency

During the first quarter of 2012, the Company reevaluated the reporting currency and determined that the functional currency for our operations in Canada is the U.S. Dollar. As a result, the Company is no longer recording translation adjustments related to assets and liabilities or income and expense items that are transacted in the local currency as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss in shareholders’ equity. Foreign exchange transaction gains and losses attributable to exchange rate movements related to transactions made in the local currency and on intercompany receivables and payables not deemed to be of a long-term investment nature are recorded in other income (expense).

3. Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue primarily from these sources:

 

   

Software and software license sales

 

   

System hardware sales

 

   

Professional service revenue

 

   

Software design and development services

 

   

Implementation services

 

   

Maintenance and hosting support contracts

The Company applies the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 605-985, Revenue Recognition: Software (or ASC 605-35) to all transactions involving the sale of software licenses. In the event of a multiple element arrangement, the Company evaluates if each element represents a separate unit of accounting, taking into account all factors following the guidelines set forth in “FASB ASC 605-985-25-5.”

The Company recognizes revenue when (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (ii) delivery has occurred, which is when product title transfers to the customer, or services have been rendered; (iii) customer payment is deemed fixed or determinable and free of contingencies and significant uncertainties; and (iv) collection is probable. The Company assesses collectability based on a number of factors, including the customer’s past payment history and its current creditworthiness. If it is determined that collection of a fee is not reasonably assured, the Company defers the revenue and recognizes it at the time collection becomes reasonably assured, which is generally upon receipt of cash payment. If an acceptance period is required, revenue is recognized upon the earlier of customer acceptance or the expiration of the acceptance period. Sales and use taxes are reported on a net basis, excluding them from revenue and cost of revenue.

Multiple-Element Arrangements — The Company enters into arrangements with customers that include a combination of software products, system hardware, maintenance and support, or installation and training services. The Company allocates the total arrangement fee among the various elements of the arrangement based on the relative fair value of each of the undelivered elements determined by vendor-specific objective evidence (VSOE). In software arrangements for which the Company does not have VSOE of fair value for all elements, revenue is deferred until the earlier of when VSOE is determined for the undelivered elements (residual method) or when all elements for which the Company does not have VSOE of fair value have been delivered. The Company has determined VSOE of fair value for each of its products and services.

WIRELESS RONIN TECHNOLOGIES, INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(in thousands, except per share amounts)

 

The VSOE for maintenance and support services is based upon the renewal rate for continued service arrangements. The VSOE for installation and training services is established based upon pricing for the services. The VSOE for software and licenses is based on the normal pricing and discounting for the product when sold separately.

Each element of the Company’s multiple element arrangements qualifies for separate accounting. However, when a sale includes both software and maintenance, the Company defers revenue under the residual method of accounting. Under this method, the undelivered maintenance and support fees included in the price of software is amortized ratably over the period the services are provided. The Company defers maintenance and support fees based upon the customer’s renewal rate for these services.

Software and software license sales

The Company recognizes revenue when a fixed fee order has been received and delivery has occurred to the customer. The Company assesses whether the fee is fixed or determinable and free of contingencies based upon signed agreements received from the customer confirming terms of the transaction. Software is delivered to customers electronically or on a CD-ROM, and license files are delivered electronically.

System hardware sales

The Company recognizes revenue on system hardware sales generally upon shipment of the product or customer acceptance depending upon contractual arrangements with the customer. Shipping charges billed to customers are included in sales and the related shipping costs are included in cost of sales.

Professional service revenue

Included in services and other revenues is revenue derived from implementation, maintenance and support contracts, content development, software development and training. The majority of consulting and implementation services and accompanying agreements qualify for separate accounting. Implementation and content development services are bid either on a fixed-fee basis or on a time-and-materials basis. For time-and-materials contracts, the Company recognizes revenue as services are performed. For fixed-fee contracts, the Company recognizes revenue upon completion of specific contractual milestones or by using the percentage-of-completion method.

Software design and development services

Revenue from contracts for technology integration consulting services where the Company designs/redesigns, builds and implements new or enhanced systems applications and related processes for clients are recognized on the percentage-of-completion method in accordance with “FASB ASC 605-985-25-88 through 107.” Percentage-of-completion accounting involves calculating the percentage of services provided during the reporting period compared to the total estimated services to be provided over the duration of the contract. Estimated revenues from applying the percentage-of-completion method include estimated incentives for which achievement of defined goals is deemed probable. This method is followed where reasonably dependable estimates of revenues and costs can be made. The Company measures its progress for completion based on either the hours worked as a percentage of the total number of hours of the project or by delivery and customer acceptance of specific milestones as outlined per the terms of the agreement with the customer. Estimates of total contract revenue and costs are continuously monitored during the term of the contract, and recorded revenue and costs are subject to revision as the contract progresses. Such revisions may result in increases or decreases to revenue and income and are reflected in the financial statements in the periods in which they are first identified. If estimates indicate that a contract loss will occur, a loss provision is recorded in the period in which the loss first becomes probable and reasonably estimable. Contract losses are determined to be the amount by which the estimated direct and indirect costs of the contract exceed the estimated total revenue that will be generated by the contract and are included in cost of sales and classified in accrued expenses in the balance sheet. The Company’s presentation of revenue recognized on a contract completion basis has been consistently applied for all periods presented.

(in thousands, except per share amounts)

 

The Company classifies the revenue and associated cost on the “Services and Other” line within the “Sales” and “Cost of Sales” sections of the Consolidated Statement of Operations. In all cases where the Company applies the contract method of accounting, the Company’s only deliverable is professional services, thus, the Company believes presenting the revenue on a single line is appropriate.

Costs and estimated earnings recognized in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts are recorded as unbilled services and are included in other current assets on the balance sheet. Billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings on uncompleted contracts are recorded as deferred revenue until revenue recognition criteria are met.

Uncompleted contracts at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 are as follows:

 

 

     June 30, 2012     December 31, 2011

Implementation services

Implementation services revenue is recognized when installation is completed.

Maintenance and hosting support contracts

Maintenance and hosting support consists of software updates and support. Software updates provide customers with rights to unspecified software product upgrades and maintenance releases and patches released during the term of the support period. Support includes access to technical support personnel for software and hardware issues. The Company also offers a hosting service through its network operations center, or NOC, allowing the ability to monitor and support its customers’ networks 7 days a week, 24 hours a day.

Maintenance and hosting support revenue is recognized ratably over the term of the maintenance contract, which is typically one to three years. Maintenance and support is renewable by the customer. Rates for maintenance and support, including subsequent renewal rates, are typically established based upon a specified percentage of net license fees as set forth in the arrangement. The Company’s hosting support agreement fees are based on the level of service provided to its customers, which can range from monitoring the health of a customer’s network to supporting a sophisticated web-portal.

4. Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash equivalents consist of commercial paper and all other liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less when purchased. As of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the Company had substantially all cash invested in a commercial paper sweep account. The Company maintains the majority of its cash balances in one financial institution located in Chicago.

5. Restricted Cash

In connection with the Company’s bank’s credit card program, the Company is required to maintain a cash balance of $50 at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively.

6. Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable are usually unsecured and stated at net realizable value and bad debts are accounted for using the allowance method. The Company performs credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition on an as-needed basis and generally requires no collateral. Payment is generally due 90 days or less from the invoice date and accounts past due more than 90 days are individually analyzed for collectability. In addition, an allowance is provided for other accounts when a significant pattern of uncollectability has occurred based on historical experience and management’s evaluation of accounts receivable. If all collection efforts have been exhausted, the account is written off against the related allowance. No interest is charged on past due accounts. The allowance for doubtful accounts was $49 and $50 at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively.

7. Inventories

The Company records inventories using the lower of cost or market on a first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. Inventories consist principally of finished goods, product components and software licenses. Inventory reserves are established to reflect slow-moving or obsolete products. The Company had an inventory reserve of $108 and $65 at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively.

8. Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company reviews the carrying value of all long-lived assets, including property and equipment as well as intangible assets with definite lives, for impairment in accordance with “FASB ASC 360-10-05-4,” Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. Under FASB ASC 360-10-05-4, impairment losses are recorded whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable.

If the impairment tests indicate that the carrying value of the asset is greater than the expected undiscounted cash flows to be generated by such asset, an impairment loss would be recognized. The impairment loss is determined by the amount by which the carrying value of such asset exceeds its fair value. We generally measure fair value by considering sale prices for similar assets or by discounting estimated future cash flows from such assets using an appropriate discount rate. Assets to be disposed of are carried at the lower of their carrying value or fair value less costs to sell. Considerable management judgment is necessary to estimate the fair value of assets, and accordingly, actual results could vary significantly from such estimates. There were no impairment losses for long-lived assets recorded for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011.

9. Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation is provided for in amounts sufficient to relate the cost of depreciable assets to operations over the estimated service lives, principally using straight-line methods. Leased equipment is depreciated over the term of the capital lease. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the life of the improvement or the lease term, using the straight-line method.

The estimated useful lives used to compute depreciation and amortization are as follows:

 

 

Equipment

     3 – 5 years   

Demonstration equipment

     3 – 5 years   

Furniture and fixtures

     7 years   

Purchased software

     3 years   

Leased equipment

     3 years   

Leasehold improvements

     Shorter of 5 years or term of lease   

Depreciation and amortization expense was $75 and $155 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively, compared to $122 and $266 for the same periods in the prior year.

10. Comprehensive Loss

Comprehensive loss includes revenues, expenses, gains and losses that are excluded from net loss. Items of comprehensive loss are foreign currency translation adjustments which are added to net income or loss to compute comprehensive income or loss. Total unrealized foreign currency translation losses on the translation of the financial statements of the Company’s foreign subsidiary from its functional currency to the U.S. dollar of $0 were included in comprehensive losses during the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively, compared to $21 and $(1) for the same periods in the prior year.

11. Research and Development and Software Development Costs

Research and development expenses consist primarily of development personnel and non-employee contractor costs related to the development of new products and services, enhancement of existing products and services, quality assurance and testing. “FASB ASC 985-20-25,” Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software to Be Sold, Leased, or Otherwise Marketed, requires certain software development costs to be capitalized upon the establishment of technological feasibility. The establishment of technological feasibility and the ongoing assessment of the recoverability of these costs require considerable judgment by management with respect to certain external factors such as anticipated future revenue, estimated economic life, and changes in software and hardware technologies. Software development costs incurred beyond the establishment of technological feasibility have not been significant. No software development costs were capitalized during the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011. Software development costs have been recorded as research and development expense. The Company incurred research and development expenses of $396 and $955 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively, compared to $620 and $1,193 for the same periods in the prior year.

12. Basic and Diluted Loss per Common Share

Basic and diluted loss per common share for all periods presented is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Basic weighted average shares outstanding include only outstanding common shares. Diluted net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average common and potential dilutive common shares outstanding computed in accordance with the treasury stock method. Shares reserved for outstanding stock warrants and options totaling 2,833 and 3,262, respectively, were excluded from the computation of loss per share as their effect was antidilutive due to the Company’s net loss for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011.

13. Deferred Income Taxes

Deferred income taxes are recognized in the financial statements for the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts based on enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates. Temporary differences arise from net operating losses, reserves for uncollectible accounts receivables and inventory, differences in depreciation methods, and accrued expenses. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

14. Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with FASB ASC 718-10, which requires the measurements and recognition of compensation expense for all stock-based payments including warrants, stock options, restricted stock grants and stock bonuses based on estimated fair value. For purposes of determining estimated fair value under FASB ASC 718-10-30, the Company computes the estimated fair values of stock options using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The fair value of restricted stock and stock award grants are determined based on the number of shares granted and the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. Compensation expense for all share-based payment awards is recognized using the straight-line amortization method over the vesting period. Stock-based compensation expense of $117 and $278, or a basic and diluted loss per share of $0.01 for both periods, was charged to expense during the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively, compared to stock-based compensation expense of $178 and $523, or a basic and diluted loss per share of $0.01 and $0.03, for the same periods in the prior year. No tax benefit has been recorded due to the full valuation allowance on deferred tax assets that the Company has recorded.

The Company applies the guidance of FASB 718-10-S99-1 for purposes of determining the expected term for stock options. The Company calculates the estimated expected life based upon historical exercise data. The Company uses historical closing stock price volatility for a period equal to the period its common stock has been trading publicly. The dividend yield assumption is based on the Company’s history and expectation of no future dividend payouts.

Stock-based compensation expense is based on awards ultimately expected to vest and is reduced for estimated forfeitures. FASB 718-10-55 requires forfeitures to be estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. The Company applied a pre-vesting forfeiture rate of 18.3% to 24.4% based on upon actual historical experience for all employee option awards. The Company continues to apply a zero forfeiture rate to those options granted to members of its Board of Directors.

The Company accounts for equity instruments issued for services and goods to non-employees under “FASB ASC 505-50-1” Accounting for Equity Instruments that are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling, Goods or Services and “FASB ASC 505-50-25” Accounting Recognition for Certain Transactions Involving Equity Instruments Granted to Other Than Employees. Generally, the equity instruments issued for services and goods are shares of the Company’s common stock, warrants or options to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock. These shares, warrants or options are either fully-vested and exercisable at the date of grant or vest over a certain period during which services are provided. The Company expenses the fair market value of these securities over the period in which the related services are received. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, the Company recognized $15 and $200, or a basic and diluted loss per share of $0.00 and $0.01, of stock-based compensation expense related to the fair market value of stock and a warrant that were issued to outside vendors for professional services and for the stock issued to the Company’s non-employee directors as part of their compensation during the periods, respectively. The Company did not issue equity instruments to non-employees during the three or six months ended June 30, 2011.

See Note 5 for further information regarding stock-based compensation and the assumptions used to calculate the fair value of stock-based compensation.

15. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

“FASB ASC 820-10,” Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, requires disclosure of the estimated fair value of an entity’s financial instruments. Such disclosures, which pertain to the Company’s financial instruments, do not purport to represent the aggregate net fair value of the Company. The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximates fair value because of the short maturity of those instruments. The fair value of capital lease obligations approximates carrying value based on the interest rate in the lease compared to current market interest rates.

16. Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Significant estimates of the Company are the allowance for doubtful accounts, recognition of revenue under fixed price contracts, deferred tax assets, deferred revenue, depreciable lives and methods of property and equipment, valuation of warrants and other stock-based compensation. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

17. Deferred Financing Costs

Amortization expense related to deferred financing costs was $3 for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively, compared to $2 and $10 for the same periods in the prior year. The amortization expense was recorded as a component of interest expense. The balance of deferred finance costs at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 was $0 and $3, respectively.

The Company measures certain financial assets, including cash equivalents, at fair value on a recurring basis. In accordance with FASB ASC 820-10-30, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. As a basis for considering such assumptions, FASB ASC 820-10-35 establishes a three-level hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. The three hierarchy levels are defined as follows:

Level 1 — Valuations based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets. The Level 1 category at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 includes funds held in a commercial paper sweep account totaling $2,806 and $5,316, which are included in cash and cash equivalents in the consolidated balance sheet.

(in thousands, except per share amounts)

 

Level 2 — Valuations based on observable inputs (other than Level 1 prices), such as quoted prices for similar assets at the measurement date; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly. At June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the Company had no Level 2 financial assets on its consolidated balance sheet.

Level 3 — Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable and involve management judgment and the reporting entity’s own assumptions about market participants and pricing. At June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the Company had no Level 3 financial assets on its consolidated balance sheet.

The hierarchy level assigned to each security in the Company’s cash equivalents is based on its assessment of the transparency and reliability of the inputs used in the valuation of such instruments at the measurement date. The Company did not have any financial liabilities that were covered by FASB ASC 820-10-30 as of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011.

NOTE 4: COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Operating Leases

The Company leases approximately 19 square feet of office and warehouse space located at 5929 Baker Road, Minnetonka, Minnesota. In July 2010, the Company entered into an amendment that extended the term of the lease through January 31, 2018. In consideration for this extension, the landlord provided the Company with a leasehold improvement allowance totaling $191 and a reduction in base rent per square foot. The leasehold allowance was recorded as an addition to deferred rent. The Company is recognizing the leasehold improvement allowance on a straight-line basis as a benefit to rent expense over the life of the lease, along with the existing deferred rent credit balance of $60 as of the date of the amendment. In addition, the amendment contains a rent escalation provision, which also is being recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. The Company had drawn upon the entire amount of leasehold improvement allowances during the fourth quarter of 2010. The lease requires the Company to maintain a letter of credit in the amount of $240 as collateral which can, in the discretion of the landlord, be reduced or released. The amount of the letter of credit as of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 was $240 and $300, respectively. In addition, the Company leases office space of approximately 10 square feet to support its Canadian operations at a facility located at 4510 Rhodes Drive, Suite 800, Windsor, Ontario under a lease that, as amended, extends through June 30, 2014.

Rent expense under the operating leases was $94 and $189 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively, compared to $92 and $204 for the same periods in the prior years.

Future minimum lease payments for operating leases are as follows:

Litigation

The Company was not party to any material legal proceedings as of August 9, 2012, and there were no such proceedings pending during the period covered by this report.

Revolving Line-of-Credit

In March 2010, the Company entered into a Loan and Security Agreement with Silicon Valley Bank (the “Loan and Security Agreement”), which was most recently amended effective June 30, 2012. The Loan and Security Agreement provides the Company with a revolving line-of-credit up to $2,500 at an interest rate of prime plus 1.5%. The amount available to the Company at any given time is the lesser of (a) $2,500, or (b) the amount available under the Company’s borrowing base (75% of the Company’s eligible accounts receivable plus 50% of the Company’s eligible inventory) minus (1) the dollar equivalent amount of all outstanding letters of credit, (2) 10% of each outstanding foreign exchange contract, (3) any amounts used for cash management services, and (4) the outstanding principal balance of any advances. In connection with the July 2010 lease amendment for the Company’s corporate offices, Silicon Valley Bank issued a letter of credit which as of June 30, 2012 was in the amount of $240, which effectively reduced the capacity amount under the Loan and Security Agreement to $2,260, subject to the borrowing base availability and continued compliance with restrictive covenants. As of June 30, 2012, the amount available to the Company under the loan and security agreement was $391.

The amendment which became effective June 30, 2012 decreased the tangible net worth minimum to $3,000 through September 30, 2012 and to $2,500 beginning October 1, 2012. This tangible net worth minimum increases (a) quarterly by 75% of the Company’s net income for each fiscal quarter starting with the third quarter of 2012 and (b) by 75% of the proceeds from future issuances of equity and/or the principal amount of subordinated debt; provided, however, the foregoing adjustment excludes proceeds of up to $2,000 received by the Company from the issuance of equity from July 31, 2012 through August 31, 2012. The Company must comply with this tangible net worth minimum in order to draw on such line of credit and also while there are outstanding credit extensions (other than the Company’s existing lease letter of credit). The March 2012 amendment also reduced the maximum permitted amount of outstanding letters of credit to $300.

Under the Loan and Security Agreement, the Company is generally required to obtain the prior written consent of Silicon Valley Bank to, among other things, (a) dispose of assets, (b) change its business, (c) liquidate or dissolve, (d) change CEO or COO (replacements must be satisfactory to the lender), (e) enter into any transaction in which the Company’s shareholders who were not shareholders immediately prior to such transaction own more than 40% of the Company’s voting stock (subject to limited exceptions) after the transaction, (f) merge or consolidate with any other person, (g) acquire all or substantially all of the capital stock or property of another person, or (h) become liable for any indebtedness (other than permitted indebtedness). The line of credit is secured by all assets of the Company. The Loan and Security Agreement matures on March 13, 2013.

NOTE 5: STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION AND BENEFIT PLANS

Stock Compensation Expense Information

FASB ASC 718-10 requires measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all stock-based payments including warrants, stock options, restricted stock grants and stock bonuses based on estimated fair values. The number of shares reserved under the Amended and Restated 2006 Equity Incentive Plan and the Amended and Restated 2006 Non-Employee Director Stock Option Plan as of June 30, 2012 was 3,600 and 1,000, respectively. Compensation expense recognized for the issuance of warrants, stock options, restricted stock grants and stock bonuses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 was as follows:

Valuation Information for Stock-Based Compensation

For purposes of determining estimated fair value under FASB ASC 718-10, the Company computed the estimated fair values of stock options using the Black-Scholes model. The Company did not issue any stock options during the three months ended June 30, 2012. The weighted average estimated fair value of stock options granted during the first quarter of 2012 was $0.71 per share compared to $0.79 and $0.75 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011. The values set forth above were calculated using the following weighted average assumptions:

 

     Three Months Ended
June 30,
    Six Months Ended
June  30,
 
     2012      2011     2012     2011  

Expected life

     n/a         4.03 years        4.18 years        3.82 to 4.03 years   

Dividend yield

     n/a         0     0     0

Expected volatility

     n/a         88.7     87.4     88.7 to 90.6

Risk-free interest rate

     n/a         1.3     0.5 to 0.8     1.3 to 1.8

The Company calculates the estimated expected life based upon historical exercise data. The risk-free interest rate assumption is based on observed interest rates appropriate for the term of the Company’s stock options. The Company uses historical closing stock price volatility for a period equal to the expected life of the respective award. The dividend yield assumption is based on the Company’s history and expectation of no future dividend payouts.

Stock-based compensation expense is based on awards ultimately expected to vest and is reduced for estimated forfeitures. FASB 718-10-55 requires forfeitures to be estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. The Company applied a pre-vesting forfeiture rate of 18.3% to 24.4% based on upon actual historical experience for all employee option awards. The Company continues to apply a zero forfeiture rate to those options granted to members of its Board of Directors.

(in thousands, except per share amounts)

 

In February 2012 and March 2011, the Company granted stock options for the purchase of an aggregate of 305 and 250 shares to two executive officers and certain key employees, respectively. In addition, each of the Company’s six non-employee board members received stock options to purchase 33 and 20 shares of the Company’s stock in February 2012 and March 2011. In June 2011, the Company granted stock options for the purchase of an aggregate of 45 shares to two key employees.

The Company issued 30 shares of restricted stock awards to a key employee in February 2012. The shares require both continued employment and achievement of certain performance targets to be achieved by June 30, 2012. As of June 30, 2012, the performance targets had been achieved and the shares were issued to the employee. The weighted average fair value of the shares was based on the closing market price on the date of grant of $1.07. The fair market value of the grants totaled $32 and was recognized as stock compensation expense on a straight-line basis through June 30, 2012.

In February 2012, the Company issued 106 unregistered shares of its common stock to a vendor in exchange for executive search services. The fair value of the shares was based on the closing price on the date issued, which totaled $114 and was recognized as compensation expense during the three months ended March 31, 2012. In addition, the Company issued a three-year warrant for the purchase of 150 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $1.75 to another vendor in exchange for public relation services. The fair value of the warrants was $0.47 per share based on the Black-Scholes model using an expected term of three years, a risk-free interest rate of 0.51% and a volatility rate of 87.4%. The total fair value of $71 was recognized as compensation expense during the three months ended June 30, 2012 as the warrant was 100% exercisable upon issuance.

In April 2012, the Company issued an aggregate of 15 shares of common stock to its six non-employee board members and an aggregate of 30 shares of common stock to two key sales employees in June 2012. The shares were issued to the six non-employee board members as part of their compensation for board service during the first quarter of 2012. The shares were issued to the two key sales employees as a result of their achievement of certain performance goals outlined within the annual sales compensation plan. The weighted average fair value of the shares was based on the closing market price on the date of grant of $0.74. The fair value of the stock totaled $34 and was recognized as compensation expense during the first half of 2012.

Stock options and warrants for the purchase of 192 shares were cancelled or expired during the first half of 2012.

2007 Associate Stock Purchase Plan

In November 2007, the Company’s shareholders approved the 2007 Associate Stock Purchase Plan, under which 300 shares were originally reserved for purchase by the Company’s associates (employees). In June 2010, the Company’s shareholders approved an amendment to increase the number of shares reserved for issuance to 400. In June 2011, the Company’s shareholders approved an amendment to increase the number of shares reserved for issuance from 400 to 600. The purchase price of the shares under the plan is the lesser of 85% of the fair market value on the first or last day of the offering period. Offering periods are every six months ending on June 30 and December 31. Associates may designate up to ten percent of their compensation for the purchase of shares under the plan. Total shares purchased by associates under the plan were 358, leaving 242 remaining shares available to be issued under the plan, as of June 30, 2012.

Employee Benefit Plan

In 2007, the Company began to offer a defined contribution 401(k) retirement plan for eligible associates. Associates may contribute up to 15% of their pretax compensation to the plan. There is currently no plan for an employer contribution match.

Item  2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion contains various forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 21E of the Exchange Act. Although we believe that, in making any such statement, our expectations are based on reasonable assumptions, any such statement may be influenced by factors that could cause actual outcomes and results to be materially different from those projected. When used in the following discussion, the words “anticipates,” “believes,” “expects,” “intends,” “plans,” “estimates” and similar expressions, as they relate to us or our management, are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are subject to numerous risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated, certain of which are beyond our control, are set forth in Item 1A under the caption “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011.

Our actual results, performance or achievements could differ materially from those expressed in, or implied by, forward-looking statements. Accordingly, we cannot be certain that any of the events anticipated by forward-looking statements will occur or, if any of them do occur, what impact they will have on us. We caution you to keep in mind the cautions and risks described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011 and to refrain from attributing undue certainty to any forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of the document in which they appear. We do not undertake to update any forward-looking statement.

Overview

We provide marketing technology solutions, which include digital signage, interactive kiosks, mobile messaging, social networking and web development solutions, to customers who use our products and services in certain retail and service markets. Through our proprietary RoninCast®X software, we provide enterprise, web-based and hosted content delivery systems that manage, schedule and deliver digital content over wireless and wired networks. We also provide custom interactive software solutions, content engineering and creative services to our customers.

While our marketing technology solutions have application in a wide variety of industries, we focus on three primary markets: (1) automotive, (2) food service (including quick serve restaurants (QSR), fast casual and managed food services markets), and (3) retail. The industries in which we sell goods and services are not new but their application of marketing technology solutions is relatively new (within the last five years) and these industries have not widely accepted or adopted these types of technologies as part of their marketing strategies. As a result, we remain an early stage company without an established history of profitability, or substantial or steady revenue. We believe this characterization applies to our competitors as well, which are working to promote broader adoption of marketing technology solutions and to develop profitable, substantial and steady sources of revenue.

We believe that the adoption of marketing technology solutions will increase substantially in years to come both in industries on which we currently focus and in other industries. We also believe that adoption of our marketing technology solutions, which includes digital signage, depends not only upon the software and services that we provide but upon the cost of hardware used to process and display content in digital signage systems. Digital media players and flat panel displays constitute a large portion of the expenditure customers make relative to the entire cost of digital signage systems. Costs of these digital media players and flat panel displays have historically decreased and we believe will continue to do so, though we do not manufacture either product and do not substantially affect the overall markets for these products. If prices continue to decline for this hardware, we believe that adoption of digital signage and other marketing technology solutions are likely to increase, though we cannot predict a precise rate at which adoption will occur.

Management focuses on a wide variety of financial measurements to assess our financial health and prospects but principally upon (1) sales, to measure the adoption of our marketing technology solutions by our customers, (2) cost of sales and gross profit, particularly expressed as gross profit percentage, to determine if sales have been made at levels of profit necessary to cover operating expenses on a long-term basis (based upon assumptions regarding adoption), (3) sales of hardware relative to software and services, understanding that hardware typically provides a lower gross profit margin than do software license fees and services, (4) operating expenses so that management can appropriately match those expenses with sales, and (5) current assets, especially cash and cash equivalents used to fund operating losses thus far incurred.

Sales

Our sales during the three months ended June 30, 2012 decreased 49% or $1,497 to $1,557, compared to the same period in the prior year. The majority of this decrease was attributable to lower orders of the iShowroom-branded tower application received from Chrysler LLC. During the second quarter of 2011, we received a $1.8 million purchase order from Chrysler LLC for the iShowroom branded towers to be installed at 400 Chrysler dealerships. We have not received any additional iShowroom branded tower orders from Chrysler since the second quarter of 2011 as Chrysler continues to consume and deploy inventory from the purchase made in May 2011. During the second quarter of 2012, we received a total of 25 individual Fiat dealership orders compared to 22 for the same period in the prior year. We believe Chrysler will continue to rollout iShowroom-branded tower application with further dealership adoption and depletion of the existing inventory purchased back in May 2011. Additionally, Chrysler has required that all Fiat Dealerships adopt the iShowroom interactive application, which is being featured in the Fiat Style Center of the new Fiat Studio Facilities. However, since we do not have a contract with Chrysler requiring it to source all the various components of these solutions through us, and the purchase of the iShowroom branded towers remains within the discretion of the individual dealerships, we are unable to predict or forecast the timing or value of any future orders. As of June 30, 2012, we had received purchase orders for 400 dealers from Chrysler for the Branded Tower Salons and 225 Fiat orders from individual dealerships. Partially offsetting the decline in sales of interactive iShowroom kiosks during the second quarter of 2012 when compared to the same period a year ago was an increase in development and content orders from Chrysler. Chrysler has continued to invest in additional ways of extending the iShowroom interactive application including the ability to render the content to various devices such as tablets and smartphones. We believe this enhancement shows Chrysler’s continued commitment to the iShowroom program as we continue to receive additional orders for further enhancements to the platform.

Sales to ARAMARK were up slightly during the second quarter of 2012 when compared to the same period in the prior year due to additional deployments of our digital menu board solutions within ARAMARK’s food service locations. The total number of locations we manage for ARAMARK through our network operations center was approximately 250 as of June 30, 2012.

Table of Contents

Our revenue for the first half of 2012 totaled $3,330 compared to $5,451 for the same period in the prior year, a decrease of $2,121 or 39%. The decrease in revenue when comparing the first half of 2012 to 2011 was due primarily to the $1.8 million purchase order we received in May 2011 from Chrysler LLC for the iShowroom branded towers representing 400 dealerships. During the first half of 2012, we generated $1,482 from this customer, compared to $2,494 for the same period in the prior year. Additionally, we received $842 fewer orders from individual Fiat dealerships for the interactive kiosks featuring iShowroom when comparing the first half of 2012 to the first half of 2011. Our revenue from ARAMARK during the first half of 2012 was also lower by $526 when compared to the same period in the prior year with fewer deployments of digital menu boards and interactive ordering kiosks to colleges and universities located throughout the U.S. Partially offsetting these decreases was an increase in revenue generated during the first half of 2012 with a new customer, Buffalo Wild Wings, for an initial five store deployment of our marketing technology solutions. This particular solution has an emphasis on creating a new guest experience through the interaction of a touchscreen photo booth application, which displays both consumer generated and client branded content. Additionally, the solution uses unique QR codes and email to allow customers to share their photos with their social networks, extending the content beyond the restaurant’s locations to further promote its brand. We believe this implementation validates our capabilities beyond traditional digital menu boards and has the ability to generate additional revenue for us in the future.

We also generated additional revenue related to our recurring hosting revenue, which totaled approximately $940 during the first half of 2012, an 18% increase from $800 recognized during the same period in the prior year, as our installation base continues to grow. Due to the current economic environment and the lengthy sales cycle associated with deploying large scale marketing technology solutions, we are not able to predict or forecast our future revenue with any degree of precision at this time.

Cost of Sales

Our cost of sales declined 63% or $1,050 to $612 for the second quarter of 2012 compared to the same period in the prior year. On a year-to-date basis, our cost of sales declined 52% or $1,530 to $1,436 when comparing the first half of 2012 to the same period in the prior year. Both decreases were due primarily to the decline in hardware sales to Chrysler and fewer orders received from individual Fiat dealerships for the interactive kiosks featuring iShowroom. On a percentage basis, our overall gross margin improved to 61% for the second quarter of 2012, compared to 46% for the same period in 2011. Our gross margin on a percentage basis for the first half of 2012 was 57% compared to 46% for the same period in the prior year. The year over year improvement in our gross margin on a percentage basis for the periods presented was primarily due to a higher percentage of our revenue coming from development and professional service fees related to the sale of our new marketing technology offerings compared to higher level of hardware sales in 2011 associated with kiosks sold to Chrysler and individual Fiat dealerships. Also, we continue to see an improvement to our gross margin on a dollar and percentage basis related to our recurring hosting revenue as our installed basis continues to grow. Our ability to maintain these levels of gross margin on a percentage basis can be impacted in any given quarter by shifts in our sales mix. However, we believe that, over the long-term, our gross margin on a percentage basis will continue to increase as our recurring revenue grows.

Operating Expenses

Our operating expenses decreased 24% or $673 to $2,151 for the three months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the same period in the prior year. Total operating costs for the first half of 2012 totaled $4,924 compared to $6,174 for the same period in the prior year.

Sales and marketing expenses include the salaries, employee benefits, commissions, stock compensation expense, travel and overhead costs of our sales and marketing personnel, as well as tradeshow activities and other marketing costs. Total sales and marketing expenses decreased 22% or $114 to $400 for the three months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the same period in the prior year. Total sales and marketing costs for the first half of 2012 totaled $858 compared to $1,277 for the same period in the prior year. The decrease in sales and marketing expense when comparing the second quarter of 2012 to 2011 was primarily due a decrease in employee compensation expenses associated with the lower levels of sales during the periods presented and also a decrease in tradeshow and other marketing advertising expenses. The decrease in the first half of 2012 when compared to the same period in 2011 was also due to lower levels of compensation and employee related expenses of $215 attributable to the lower level of sales and other personnel changes made during first quarter of 2012. We also incurred a reduction in tradeshow costs of $110 during the first half of

2012 compared to the same period in 2011 as a result of concentrating our marketing dollars on more forums and user groups instead of the larger national tradeshows such as Digital Signage Expo. Lastly, our stock compensation expense was lower by $37 when comparing the first half of 2012, to the same period in 2011. Total stock compensation expense included in sales and marketing was $30 and $41 during the second quarter and first half of 2012, compared to $31 and $78 for the same periods in the prior year, respectively. We continue to focus our efforts to maximize the return on investment by attending select industry digital signage tradeshows, as we believe our presence is necessary to attract and retain new customers. We traditionally incur higher levels of tradeshow expenditures in the first quarter of our fiscal year compared to the remaining three quarters. Any significant increase in our sales and marketing expenses for the full year 2012 relative to 2011 would be the result of higher levels of commission expense resulting from an increase in our revenue, as we do not anticipate higher costs associated with tradeshows or marketing initiatives.

Research and development expenses include salaries, employee benefits, stock compensation expense, related overhead costs and consulting fees associated with product development, enhancements, upgrades, testing, quality assurance and documentation. Total research and development expenses for the second quarter of 2012 decreased 36% or approximately $224 to $396 when compared to the same period in the prior year. Total research and development expense during the first half of 2012 totaled $955 compared to $1,193 for the same period in the prior year. The decreases were primarily related to a higher level of costs being allocated to cost of goods sold related to billable development work performed for our customers and other personnel changes made during the first quarter of 2012, which resulted in a reduction in employee compensation expense. Additionally, we experienced lower levels of consulting expense during the second quarter and first half of 2012 when compared to the same periods in the prior year. We currently believe the level of expenditure in research and development for the two remaining quarters of 2012 will be at a similar level to that experienced during the second quarter of 2012. It continues to be critical for our success that we are able to further enhance our RoninCast®X software as the need for a more sophisticated dynamic digital signage platform continues to evolve. Included in research and development expense was stock compensation expense of $26 and $39 during the second quarter and first half of 2012 compared to $11 and $24 for the same periods in the prior year, respectively.

General and administrative expenses include the salaries, employee benefits, stock compensation expense and related overhead cost of our finance, information technology, human resources and administrative employees, as well as legal and accounting expenses, consulting and contractor fees and bad debt expense. Total general and administrative expenses decreased 18% or $288 and 14% or $482 for the second quarter and first half of 2012, respectively, when compared to the same periods in the prior year. The decrease when comparing the first half of 2012 to 2011 was the result of lower employee-related stock compensation expense of $218, a reduction in employee compensation and related travel expenses of $156, and a decline in fees paid for professional services and other public company related expenses of $155 and $51, respectively. Partially offsetting these declines was a $200 increase in stock compensation expense associated with the fair market value of the stock and warrants issued to outside vendors for professional services and for common stock issued to our six non-employee board members as part of their compensation for board service during the first half of 2012. Total stock compensation expense for the second quarter and first half of 2012 totaled $59 and $194 compared to $131 and $412 for the same periods in the prior year. Included in general and administrative expenses was $15 and $200 of stock compensation expense for common stock and warrants issued to outside vendors for professional services and common stock issued to our six non-employee board members during the second quarter and first half of 2012. We currently believe our general and administrative costs will remain a similar level to that experienced during the second quarter of 2012 for the remaining two quarters of 2012.

Depreciation and amortization expense, which consists primarily of depreciation of computer equipment and office furniture and the amortization of purchased software and leasehold improvements made to our leased facilities, was lower by $47 and $111 when comparing the second quarter and first half of 2012 to the prior year periods. These decreases were primarily the result of minimal capital expenditures being made during the past twelve months.

Interest Expense

Interest expense during the first half of 2012 totaled $6 compared to $18 for the same period in 2011. Included in interest expense for the first half of 2012 and 2011 was $3 and $5, respectively, associated with the capital lease that we entered into in July 2010 and paid off in June 2012. The remaining amount was the result of the expense recognized related to the fair value of the warrant issued to Silicon Valley Bank as additional consideration for the $2,500 loan and security agreement we entered into in March 2010 and most recently modified effective June 30, 2012. The warrant vested 100% on date of grant and we are recognizing the fair value, as determined using the Black-Scholes model, of $66 over the one-year life of the agreement on a straight-line basis. The loan and security agreement modification in January 2011 included a provision to reduce the exercise price associated with the warrant resulting in an incremental increase in fair value of $0.20 per share. The fair value remaining as of the date of the modification totaled $19 and was amortized on a straight-line basis through March 2012.

Interest Income

Interest income was lower by $2 during the first half of 2012 when compared to the same period in the prior year. The decrease in interest income was primarily due to a lower average cash balance during the first quarter of 2012 compared to the same period in the prior year.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of June 30, 2012, we had $3,097 of cash and cash equivalents, including restricted cash, and working capital of $2,658. As of June 30, 2012, we did not have any debt. We plan to use our available cash and available line of credit to fund operations, including the continued development of our products and attraction of new customers through sales and marketing initiatives.

In March 2010, we entered into a Loan and Security Agreement with Silicon Valley Bank, which was most recently amended effective June 30, 2012 (as amended, the “Loan and Security Agreement”). The Loan and Security Agreement provides us with a revolving line-of-credit up to $2,500 at an interest rate of prime plus 1.5%. The amount available to us at any given time is the lesser of (a) $2,500, or (b) the amount available under our borrowing base (75% of our eligible accounts receivable plus 50% of our eligible inventory) minus (1) the dollar equivalent amount of all outstanding letters of credit, (2) 10% of each outstanding foreign exchange contract, (3) any amounts used for cash management services, and (4) the outstanding principal balance of any advances. In connection with the July 2010 lease amendment for our corporate offices, Silicon Valley Bank issued a letter of credit which as of June 30, 2012 was in the amount of $240, which effectively reduced the capacity amount under the Loan and Security Agreement to $2,260, subject to the borrowing base availability and continued compliance with restrictive covenants. As of June 30, 2012, the amount available to us under the loan and security agreement was $391.

The amendment which became effective June 30, 2012 decreased the tangible net worth to $3,000 through September 30, 2012 and to $2,500 beginning October 1, 2012. This tangible net worth minimum increases (a) quarterly by 75% of our net income for each fiscal quarter starting with the third quarter of 2012 and (b) by 75% of the proceeds from future issuances of equity and/or the principal amount of subordinated debt; provided, however, the foregoing adjustment excludes proceeds of up to $2,000 received by our company from the issuance of equity from July 31, 2012 through August 31, 2012. We must comply with this tangible net worth minimum in order to draw on such line of credit and while there are outstanding credit extensions (other than our existing lease letter of credit). The March 2012 amendment also reduced the maximum permitted amount of outstanding letters of credit to $300.

Under the Loan and Security Agreement, we are generally required to obtain the prior written consent of Silicon Valley Bank to, among other things, (a) dispose of assets, (b) change its business, (c) liquidate or dissolve, (d) change CEO or COO (replacements must be satisfactory to the lender), (e) enter into any transaction in which our shareholders who were not shareholders immediately prior to such transaction own more than 40% of our voting stock (subject to limited exceptions) after the transaction, (f) merge or consolidate with any other person, (g) acquire all or substantially all of the capital stock or property of another person, or (h) become liable for any indebtedness (other than permitted indebtedness). The line of credit is secured by all assets of our company. The Loan and Security Agreement matures on March 13, 2013.

Operating Activities

We do not currently generate positive cash flow. Our investments in infrastructure have been greater than sales generated to date. As of June 30, 2012, we had an accumulated deficit of $92,051. The cash flow used in operating activities was $2,409 and $3,697 for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The majority of the cash consumed from operations for both periods was attributed to our net losses of $3,035 and $3,704 for the half of 2012 and 2011, respectively. Included in our net losses were non-cash charges consisting of depreciation, stock compensation expense and amortization of warrants issued for debt issuance costs totaling $636 and $799 for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Additionally, cash consumed from

changes in our working capital accounts for both periods totaled $9 and $807 for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The related fluctuations in our working capital accounts for the six months ended June 30, 2012, resulting in a decrease in receivables, was primarily due to Chrysler allowing us to submit progressive billings on the majority of the development and content projects at the end of each month, instead of at the time we complete the project. We believe we will be able to continue to submit progressive billings to Chrysler for all current and future related projects. The primary reason for the increase in our working capital accounts for the six months ended June 30, 2011 was due to the timing and collection of the large order we received from Chrysler during the second quarter of 2011 and the fourth quarter of 2010. During the fourth quarter of 2010, we received a $1.1 million purchase order from Chrysler for 100 iShowroom branded tower applications, which we were able to bill and collect prior to December 31, 2010. During the second quarter of 2011, we received and billed a similar order from Chrysler for 400 dealerships totaling $1.8 million which payment was not received until the third quarter of 2011, resulting in a significant increase in accounts receivable when comparing the same period balances. Our accrued liabilities increased $19 and $141 during the first half of 2012 and 2011, respectively, when compared to the prior year end balances as a result of an accrual for payroll to our employees and also a general increase in other employee compensation related account balances. Partially offsetting these declines in our working capital was a decline in accounts payable balances of $313 and $338 at the end of the second quarter of 2012 and 2011, respectively, when compared to the prior year end balances. The decrease in accounts payable for the six month period ended June 30, 2012 was the result of a higher percentage of our revenue being delivered through internal resources for content and development projects versus orders received for hardware sales fulfilled through third party vendors. The primary reason for the $338 decline in accounts payable during the first half of 2011 was the result of a larger percentage of vendor purchases, including the $1.8 million purchase order from Chrysler in May 2011, being made earlier in the second quarter of 2011, when compared to the same period in the prior year. The decline in deferred revenue for the six month period ended June 30, 2012 was primarily due to a larger concentration of our annual hosting and support billing being made at the end of 2011 for the 2012 renewal year. The increase in deferred revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2011 was primarily due to the deferral of undelivered services associated with the $1.8 million purchase order we received from Chrysler during the second quarter of 2011. The decrease in inventory of $48 during the first half of 2012 was due again to lower level of hardware sales during the second quarter of 2012 compared to the fourth quarter of 2011. The increase in inventory of $57 during the first half of 2011 when compared to the prior year balances was primarily the result of additional inventory secured for the Chrysler iShowroom implementations mentioned above. Based on our current expense levels, we anticipate that our cash and cash equivalents, and the availability of our line of credit, will be adequate to fund our operations through December 31, 2012.

Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2012 was $10 compared to $107 during the same period in the prior year. The decrease in cash used in investing activities was entirely due to fewer equipment purchases made during the first half of 2012 when compared to the same period of 2011. Our capital expenditures during the first half of 2011 were primarily related to information technology software for managing our backup and recovery capabilities. We believe further capital equipment investments for the remainder of 2012 will not be significant as our current infrastructure has the capacity to service additional deployments based on our current forecast.

Financing Activities

Net cash provided by/(used in) financing activities during the first half of 2012 and 2011 was ($9) and $635, respectively. During the first half of 2012, we received proceeds totaling $32 from the issuance of shares under our associate stock purchase plan, compared to $37 during the same period in 2011. Additionally, we received $116 of proceeds from stock option exercises during the six months ended June 30, 2011. Cash provided by financing activities also included a $500 draw on our line of credit with Silicon Valley Bank in the six months ended June 30, 2011. These cash inflows from financing activities were offset by $41 and $18 of principal payments made on a capital lease we entered into in July 2010.

Disruptions in the economy and constraints in the credit markets have caused companies to reduce or delay capital investment. Some of our prospective customers may cancel or delay spending on the development or roll-out of capital and technology projects with us due to continuing economic uncertainty. Difficult economic conditions have adversely affected certain industries in particular, including the automotive and restaurant industries, in which we have major customers. We could also experience lower than anticipated order levels from current customers, cancellations of existing but unfulfilled orders, and extended payment or delivery terms. Economic conditions could also materially impact us through insolvency of our suppliers or current customers. While we have

down-sized our operations to reflect the decrease in demand, we may not be successful in mirroring current demand. If customer demand were to decline further, we might be unable to adjust expense levels rapidly enough in response to falling demand or without changing the way in which we operate. If revenue were to decrease further and we are unable to adequately reduce expense levels, we might incur significant losses that could adversely affect our overall financial performance and the market price of our common stock.

As of June 30, 2012, Chrysler accounted for 40.1% of our total receivables. In the case of insolvency by one of our significant customers, accounts receivable with respect to that customer might not be collectible, might not be fully collectible, or might be collectible over longer than normal terms, each of which could adversely affect our financial position. In one case in the past, we converted a customer’s accounts receivable into a secured note receivable then into the underlying collateral, which we ultimately wrote off. In the future, if we convert other accounts receivable into notes receivable or obtain the collateral underlying note receivable, we may not be able to fully recover the amount due, which could adversely affect our financial position. Furthermore, the value of the collateral which serves to secure any such obligation is likely to deteriorate over time due to obsolescence caused by new product introductions and due to wear and tear suffered by those portions of the collateral installed and in use. There can be no assurance that we will not suffer credit losses in the future.

We have historically financed our operations primarily through sales of common stock, exercise of warrants, and the issuance of notes payable to vendors, shareholders and investors. Based on our current and anticipated expense levels and our existing capital resources, we anticipate that our cash balance, including the net proceeds of the registered direct common stock offering we completed in December 2011, and the availability of our line of credit, are adequate to fund our operations through December 31, 2012.

To assist us as we assess how to improve our liquidity, increase our capital resources, and consider strategic options, we have engaged Roth Capital Partners, LLC to render financial advisory and investment banking services to our company in connection with our general financial strategy and planning, including an evaluation of strategic and financial alternatives. We anticipate that we will be required to raise additional capital through the sale of equity securities. Such financing would be dilutive to existing shareholders and may be completed at a discount to market price. There can be no assurance we will successfully complete such an equity financing.

Our long-range capital requirements will depend on many factors, including our ability to successfully address our short-term liquidity and capital resource needs, market and sell our products and services, develop new products and services and establish and leverage our strategic partnerships and business alliance relationships. In order to meet our future needs should we not become cash flow positive or should we be unable to sustain positive cash flow, we may be required to raise additional funding through public or private financings, including equity financings. Any additional equity financings may be dilutive to shareholders and may be completed at a discount to market price. Debt financing, if available, would likely involve restrictive covenants similar to or more restrictive than those contained in the security and loan agreement we currently have with Silicon Valley Bank. Those covenants include maintaining minimum tangible net worth. There can be no assurance we will successfully complete any future equity or debt financing.

Adequate funds for our operations, whether from financial markets, collaborative or other arrangements, may not be available when needed or on terms attractive to us, especially from markets which continue to be risk averse. If adequate funds are not available, our plans to operate our business may be adversely affected and we could be required to curtail our activities significantly and/or cease operating.

Contractual Obligations

Although we have no material commitments for capital expenditures, we anticipate levels of capital expenditures consistent with our levels of operations, infrastructure and personnel for the remainder of 2012.

Operating and Capital Leases

At June 30, 2012, our principal commitments consisted of long-term obligations under operating leases. We conduct our U.S. operations from a leased facility located at 5929 Baker Road in Minnetonka, Minnesota. We lease approximately 19,000 square feet of office and warehouse space under a lease that extends through January 31, 2018. In addition, we lease office space of approximately 10,000 square feet to support our Canadian operations at a facility located at 4510 Rhodes Drive, Suite 800, Windsor, Ontario, Canada under a lease, as amended, that extends through June 30, 2014.

Our internal source of liquidity solely consists of our cash balance, which as of June 30, 2012 was $3.1 million. Of this amount, $2.8 million is invested in a daily sweep commercial paper account with Silicon Valley Bank. We continuously monitor the credit rating of this financial institution and have determined there is a low level of risk of the funds not settling on a daily basis. Additionally, we have no limits or restrictions on our ability to use or access these funds for operating our business. Our external sources of liquidity include a line of credit with Silicon Valley Bank. As of June 30, 2012, the amount available to us under this line of credit was $391.

Based on our working capital position at June 30, 2012, we believe we have sufficient working capital to meet our current obligations through December  31, 2012.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject us to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, and accounts receivables. We maintain our accounts for cash and cash equivalents principally at one major bank. As of June 30, 2012, our cash was primarily invested in a commercial paper sweep account as the interest rate yield was more favorable than those of United States government securities and money market funds. We have not experienced any significant losses on our deposits of our cash and cash equivalents.

We do not believe our operations are currently subject to significant market risks for interest rates or other relevant market price risks of a material nature.

Foreign exchange rate fluctuations may adversely impact our consolidated financial position as well as our consolidated results of operations. Foreign exchange rate fluctuations may adversely impact our financial position as the assets and liabilities of our Canadian operations are translated into U.S. dollars in preparing our consolidated balance sheet. These gains or losses are recognized as an adjustment to shareholders’ equity through accumulated other comprehensive loss. The impact of foreign exchange rate fluctuations on our condensed consolidated statement of operations was immaterial in the first half of 2012 and 2011.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain a system of disclosure controls and procedures that is designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we conducted an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)). Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of June 30, 2012, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the three months ended June 30, 2012, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
