Sales and Marketing

We sell our solutions in the U.S. primarily through our direct field sales team supported by consultants and our sales support group.  Our sales force has significant experience in video solutions and real-time operating systems.  Outside North America, we utilize a direct sales force out of our facilities in France, Germany, Japan, China and the United Kingdom.  Our global sales efforts are augmented by a variety of channel partners (resellers and system integrators).
 
Customers

We derive revenue from a limited number of customers.  Our products are typically assembled and shipped in the same quarter the purchase order is received, and as a result, we typically have minimal backlog.  Our backlog for video solutions products and real-time products at June 30, 2014 totaled $7.7 million, as compared to $9.9 million at June 30, 2013.

We have purchase agreements with many customers, but these agreements typically do not require minimum purchases of our products.  As a result, sales to specific customers tend to, and are expected to continue to, vary from year-to-year, depending on such customers' budgets for capital expenditures and new product introductions.

A significant portion of our video solutions revenue has come from, and is expected to continue to come from sales to service providers.  For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014, Cox Communications, Inc. (“Cox”) and Time Warner Cable Inc. (“TWC”) each represented 13% of our total revenue.  For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013, Cox and TWC each represented 12% of our total revenue.  For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012, Jupiter Telecommunications accounted for 20% of total revenue.  No other customer of our video solutions accounted for more than 10% of our total revenue during the last three fiscal years.
Although we sell our real-time products to large customers, our customer base is generally more diversified than our video solutions business.  For the fiscal years 2014, 2013 and 2012, no single real-time customer accounted for more than 10% of total revenue.

We derive a significant portion of our revenues from the supply of products to U.S. government prime contractors and agencies of the U.S. government.  The supplied systems include RedHawk, iHawk, ImaGen, and other configurations with certain systems incorporating custom enhancements requested by the customer.  We sell these integrated computer systems to prime contractors, including Lockheed Martin Corporation, The Boeing Company, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon Company and other Fortune 500 companies.  We also supply spare parts, upgrades, and engineering consulting services and system maintenance.  For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014, we recorded $10.1 million in revenue to U.S. government prime contractors and agencies of the U.S. government.  For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013, we recorded $9.6 million in revenue to U.S. government prime contractors and agencies of the U.S. government.  These amounts represented 14% and 15% of total revenue in fiscal years 2014 and 2013, respectively.  Government business is subject to many risks, such as delays in funding, reduction or modification of contracts or subcontracts, failure to exercise options, changes in government policies and the imposition of budgetary constraints.

New Product Development

We are committed to the development of new technology and rapid innovation in the evolving markets in which we compete.  Research and development costs are expensed when incurred and aggregated $13.0 million, $11.6 million, and $13.2 million in fiscal years 2014, 2013, and 2012, respectively.  See Part II, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, for explanations of changes in research and development expenses.  The following development strategies are indicative of the general direction of product development activities.  Due to the inherent uncertainty involved with product development, we cannot guarantee the availability of future products and features.

Video Solutions Products.  Our research and development strategies for our video solutions products are based on market demands and are focused on the following:

· Multi-Screen Delivery.  In order to enable our video solutions to reach every screen, we continue to add support for new file formats and delivery methods associated with mobility and online video distribution.  We are also developing products that help our customers launch multi-screen pay video services and reduce the complexities of operating these services.  We are further developing our dynamic HTTP content preparation software as well as on-demand policy control systems that can personalize video content for each user during the streaming process. To ensure compatibility in multi-screen environments, we are integrating our MediaHawk platform with third-party software and infrastructure components that are required to support delivery to connected devices.

· Content Delivery Networks and Architectures.  We believe that demand for on-demand content will continue to increase.  We also believe core TV services will be extended beyond the TV to reach consumers on a wider array of devices.  We continue to enhance our systems to support new screens, and to intelligently manage the distribution, placement, and life-cycle management of stored content across local, regional, national, and global networks to ensure the most efficient use of our customers’ networks.  We believe that with our experience in a variety of open video system architectures we are well positioned to address our customers’ future content strategies.

· Media Data Intelligence.  Video service providers, content owners, advertisers, and ad agencies are interested in data on consumer video-watching behavior and content consumption models.  We are developing our MDI offerings to provide this information at the census level in near real-time on intelligent applications utilizing a variety of technologies and solution architectures, thereby improving upon existing and competitive solutions that estimate or project consumer activity based upon small sample sizes.
· Time-Shifted Video and Network DVR.  Consumers are increasingly interested in watching video on their own schedule.  We believe nDVR and time shifted TV services address consumers’ needs for larger storage capacities and recording capabilities.  We are focused on developing solutions that will enable consumers to record linear broadcast content, user-generated content, Internet and other video content on private storage space hosted in the network.  By storing content in a cloud based personal recording platform, subscribers will be able to access their content from any device over a wide array of networks.

· Unified Transparent Caching Solution.  Concurrent’s transparent caching solution optimizes the online video traffic being delivered over service providers' high speed data networks, while creating new revenue generation opportunities.  Using Concurrent’s system, service providers can analyze Internet traffic in real-time to identify the most popular streaming video content and software downloads, including Apple iOS®, Google Android, and Microsoft Windows® updates. Popular content is cached at the edge of the service provider’s network to enable subsequent consumer requests for the same content to be served locally, resulting in network bandwidth savings, faster data services, improved video quality, and enhanced service consistency.

Real-Time Products.  Our research and development strategies for our real-time products include enhancing our RedHawk Linux real-time operating system to provide increased functionality and determinism for time-critical applications.    We plan to continue to track the latest Linux enhancements and kernel versions, and will maintain compatibility with Red Hat Enterprise Linux and CentOS user environments.  Our strategy also includes enhancing SIMulation Workbench with new features and support for additional I/O cards.  We are planning new NightStar features to improve debugging efficiency and performance in GPU computing applications.  We are also planning new SIGnal Workbench signal conditioning features that improve configuration flexibility and greater ease-of-use.  We have plans to enhance GPU Workbench to support the latest GPUs and CUDA SDK versions to offer low-latency and high-throughput for time-critical GPU applications. We will also continue to develop and expand our own line of I/O cards to meet customer data acquisition requirements.

Competition

Our video solutions and real-time products are sold into highly-competitive environments, driven by rapid technological innovation.  Both product groups compete based upon features, reliability, scalability, service, and price.  Due in part to the range of performance and applications capabilities of our products, we compete in various markets against a number of companies.

The major competitors of our video solutions currently include the following:  Adobe Systems, Inc., Arris Group, Inc., Cisco Systems, Inc., Edgeware AB, Envivio Inc., Fabrix Systems, Harmonic, Inc.,  Broadpeak, and Wowza Media Systems, LLC.  Typically, in opportunities for our MDI products, we also compete against in-house development or customer offerings from some professional services consulting entities.

Our real-time product line competes with a number of companies, including:  (1) companies providing competitive Linux and other real-time operating systems or tools for time-critical systems, including Lynx Software Technologies, Red Hat, Inc. and Wind River Systems, Inc.; (2) companies involved in simulation and data acquisition, including Opal RT Technologies, Inc. and dSpace, GmbH; (3) customers who may choose to integrate their own in-house, real-time products using standard commercial hardware and open-source Linux operating systems and tools; and (4) computer companies that provide solutions for high-performance image generation, including Quantum3D, Inc. and Rockwell Collins, Inc.

Additional competitors with significant market presence and financial resources, including computer hardware and software companies, content providers and television equipment manufacturers, including digital STB manufacturers, may enter our markets, thereby further intensifying competition.  Potential future competitors may also include one or more of the parties with whom we currently have a strategic relationship.  Although we have copyright and other intellectual property rights with respect to much of the technology incorporated in our video solutions and real-time products, our strategic partners have not agreed to refrain from competing against us. Increased competition could result in price reductions that would adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. Many of our current and potential future competitors have significantly greater financial, technical, sales, marketing and other resources than we do, and greater brand name recognition.  In addition, many of our competitors have well-established relationships with our current and potential customers and have extensive knowledge of our markets.
Intellectual Property

We rely on a combination of contracts and copyright, trademark, patent and trade secret laws to establish and protect our proprietary rights in our technology.  We distribute our products under software license agreements that grant customers perpetual or term licenses to our products, which contain various provisions protecting our ownership and confidentiality of the licensed technology.  The source code of our products is protected as a trade secret and as an unpublished copyright work.  However, some of our products utilize open source code that provides limited copyright protection.  In addition, in certain instances, we license our products under licenses that give licensees limited access to the source code of certain of our products, particularly in connection with our strategic alliances.

Despite the precautions we have taken, there can be no assurance that our products or technology will not be copied or otherwise obtained and used without authorization.  In addition, effective copyright and trade secret protection may be unavailable or limited in certain foreign countries and with respect to open source code utilized in certain of our products.  We believe that, due to the rapid pace of innovation within our industry, factors such as the technological and creative skills of our personnel are more important in establishing and maintaining a technology leadership position within the industry than are the various legal protections for our technology.

We own seven U.S. patents:  Nos. 7,877,468, 8,079,052, 8,505,057, 8,522,268, 8,650,601, 8,695,031 and 8,763,044 and have multiple patent applications pending in the U.S.  We have also obtained a patent license to a patent portfolio (13 patents, 29 patent applications, and all additions, divisionals, continuations, continuations-in-part, extensions, reissues, and foreign counterparts thereof) which is now owned by Alcatel-Lucent (the “Patent License”).  These patents cover multiple interactive television, targeted advertising, and on-demand technologies.  The portfolio includes U.S. Patent Nos. 5,623,595 and 5,805,804 (“Subject Patents”).  In addition to our original license, on September 28, 2007, Concurrent obtained a separate Patent License to the Subject Patents from Broadband Royalty Corporation (“BBR”), with assurances from its parent company, C-COR Incorporated.  BBR co-owns the Subject Patents with Alcatel-Lucent.  The Patent License provides a license to the Subject Patents that may be transferred to an acquirer of Concurrent or Concurrent’s video streaming business, so long as the acquirer has not been formally identified as an actual or potential Alcatel-Lucent licensee.

We have entered into licensing agreements with several third-party software developers and suppliers.  Generally, such agreements grant us non-exclusive, worldwide term licenses to distribute software as part of the systems we market.
 
Suppliers

We sometimes purchase product components from a single supplier in order to obtain the required technology and the most favorable price and delivery terms.  These components include systems, system boards, memory, CPUs, mother boards, storage devices, software, and chassis.  We purchase product components from the following single suppliers:  Arrow Electronics, Inc., Avnet, Inc., CSP, Inc., Curtiss-Wright Corporation, Dell, Inc., (“Dell”), Dot Hill Systems Corporation (“Dot Hill”), General Electric, General Standards Corporation, Intel Corporation, Kardios Systems Corporation, KMA Systems, North Atlantic Industries. Inc., Oracle Corporation, Qlogic Corporation, Seagate Technology, LLC, Supermicro Computer, Inc. and Western Digital Technologies, Incorporated.  Comparable products are available from other sources and would conform to our system specifications with moderate engineering effort.  Single-source suppliers accounting for 10% or more of these purchases during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014 were Dot Hill (23%), Dell (18%), and Avnet, Inc. (13%).  During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013, Dot Hill (24%) and Dell (16%) were the only single-source suppliers accounting for 10% or more of these purchases.  During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012, Dot Hill (28%) was the only single-source supplier accounting for 10% or more of these purchases.

Seasonality

We have experienced variations in revenue, expenses and operating results from quarter to quarter, and it is probable that these variations will continue.  We believe that fluctuations in the number of orders for our video solutions being placed from quarter to quarter are principally attributable to the buying patterns and budgeting cycles of our customers.  We believe that orders for real-time products are dictated by buying cycles of the government and large government contractors.  In addition, for both product lines, orders are often not finalized until the end of a quarter.  However, we do not believe seasonality is a significant factor at this time.

Governmental Regulation

We are subject to various international, U.S. federal, state and local laws affecting our business.  Any finding that we have been or are in noncompliance with such laws could result in, among other things, governmental penalties.  Further, changes in existing laws or new laws may adversely affect our business.

In connection with orders from the U.S. federal government and government contractors, we are in some circumstances subject to the U.S. federal government procurement regulations that may provide the buyer with the right to audit and review our performance, as well as our compliance with applicable laws and regulations. In addition, our business is subject to government regulation based on the products we sell that may be subject to government requirements, such as obtaining an export license or an end-use certificate from the buyer, in certain circumstances. In the U.S., these requirements include, among others, the U.S. Export Administration Regulations, International Traffic in Arms Regulations and the economic sanctions and embargo laws enforced by the Office of Foreign Assets Control. If a government audit uncovers improper or illegal activities, or if we are alleged to have violated any laws or regulations governing the products we sell under our government contracts, we may be subject to civil and criminal penalties and administrative sanctions, including termination of contracts, forfeiture of profits, suspension of payments, fines, and suspension or debarment from doing business with U.S. federal government agencies.

Several countries where our systems are shipped have adopted rules and regulations governing the labeling of computer hardware which apply to our products.  Specifically, we must comply with the Waste of Electronic and Electrical Equipment (“WEEE”) and Restriction of Hazardous Substances Directive (“RoHS”) enacted in the European Union and the Ministry of Information Order No. 39 in China.

The television industry is subject to extensive regulation in the U.S. and other countries.  Our video solutions business is dependent upon the continued growth of the digital television industry in the U.S. and internationally.  Broadband companies are subject to extensive government regulation by the Federal Communications Commission (“FCC”) and other federal and state regulatory agencies.  The Cable Communications Policy Act of 1984 (the “1984 Cable Act”), which amended the Communications Act of 1934, established policies in the areas of ownership, channel usage, franchise provisions and renewals, subscriber rates and privacy, obscenity and lockboxes, unauthorized reception of services, equal employment opportunity, and pole attachments. The 1984 Cable Act also defined jurisdictional boundaries among federal, state and local authorities for regulating cable television systems which, among other provisions, allow for expanded regulatory powers when domestic cable penetration exceeds a threshold of 70% of all U.S. households.  Additional regulations could have the effect of limiting capital expenditures by our customers and thus could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.  The enactment by federal, state or international governments of new laws or regulations could adversely affect our customers, and thereby materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Environmental Matters

We purchase, use, and arrange for certified disposal of chemicals used in the assembly process at our Pompano Beach, Florida facility.  As a result, we are subject to federal and state environmental protection and community right-to-know laws.  Additionally, we export our products around the world where there are additional environmental regulations.  These laws could have the effect of limiting our capital expenditures and thus could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.  Violations of such laws can result in the imposition of substantial remediation costs and penalties.  We believe we are in compliance with all material environmental laws and regulations.
Employees

As of June 30, 2014, we had 236 employees and contractors worldwide.  Of these employees and contractors, 183 were located in the U.S. and 53 were located internationally.  Our employees are not unionized.
 
Financial Information About Foreign And Domestic Operations And Export Sales

A summary of net sales (consolidated net sales reflects sales to unaffiliated customers) attributable to our foreign and domestic operations for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2014, 2013, and 2012 is presented in Note 10 to the consolidated financial statements included herein.
 
Item 1A.
Risk Factors.
 
The following are the material risk factors we face.  You should carefully consider each of the following risk factors and all of the other information in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.  If any of the following risks and uncertainties develops into actual events, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.  If that happens, the trading prices of our common stock and other securities we may issue in the future could decline significantly.

The risk factors below contain forward-looking statements regarding Concurrent.  Actual results could differ materially from those set forth in the forward-looking statements.  See “Cautionary Statements Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” on page 39.
 
Risks Related to Our Business

A significant portion of our revenue has been, and is expected to continue to be, concentrated in a small number of customers and our customer base may be subject to further consolidation.  If we are unsuccessful in maintaining and expanding relationships with these customers or lose any of these customers, our business will be adversely affected.

Cox and TWC each accounted for approximately 13% of our fiscal year 2014 total revenue and each accounted for approximately 12% of our fiscal year 2013 total revenue. Cox and TWC also each accounted for approximately 23% our fiscal year 2014 total video solutions revenue and 20% of our fiscal year 2013 total video solutions revenue.  For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012, Jupiter Telecommunications accounted for approximately 20% of our total revenue and approximately 34% of our video solutions revenue.  If we are unsuccessful in maintaining and expanding key relationships with these and other existing customers or if these customers’ purchasing levels are reduced, our business will be materially adversely affected.  Further, if we are unsuccessful in establishing relationships with other large companies or experience problems in any of our systems, our ability to attract new customers and sell additional products to existing customers will be materially adversely affected.

Due to our limited customer base and the relative size of each customer compared to Concurrent, our customers may make extensive demands upon our business.  Such demands may include high levels of contractual service, product-improvement obligations and severe price pressure.  In addition, our failure to adequately perform under these contracts could result in liquidated damages.  The payment of any liquidated damages or failure to meet our customers’ expectations could substantially harm our future business prospects.

We typically do not have written agreements that require customers to purchase fixed minimum quantities of our products.  Our sales to specific customers tend to, and are expected to continue to, vary from year-to-year, depending on such customers’ budgets for capital expenditures and new product introductions.  Further, such expenditures may be reduced, delayed or cancelled as a result of the continuing global economic slowdown on each of these customers’ businesses.
In North America, video service providers have widely adopted video solutions over the past decade.  Many will be reluctant to change vendors as systems are upgraded, due to the integration into their network.  As a result, future opportunities for new sales of video servers into these markets may be limited.

We depend on a small number of domestic cable multiple system operators (“MSOs”) for a substantial proportion of our domestic revenues.  Any decrease or delay in capital spending for advanced technologies harms our operating results, financial condition and cash flows. 

The capital spending patterns of our existing and potential customers are dependent on a variety of factors, including:

· annual budget cycles;
· technology adoption cycles and network architectures of service providers, and evolving industry standards that may impact them;
· changes in general economic conditions;
· changes in strategic focus;
· competitive pressures, including pricing pressures; and
· discretionary customer spending patterns.

We expect these sales to continue to constitute a significant majority of our revenues for the foreseeable future.  Demand for our products will depend on the magnitude and timing of capital spending by service providers on advanced technologies for constructing and upgrading their network infrastructure.  Continued slowdowns or delays in this spending would likely have a material adverse impact on our quarterly revenues and could result in net losses.

A loss of our government contracts and/or orders would have a material adverse effect on our business.

We derive a significant portion of our revenues from the supply of systems under government contracts and/or orders.  For the fiscal years ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, we recorded $10.1 million and $9.6 million, respectively, in revenue to U.S. government prime contractors and agencies of the U.S. government.  These sales represent approximately 14% and 15% of our total sales in the fiscal years ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.  Government business is subject to many risks, such as delays in funding, reduction or modification of contracts or subcontracts, changes in governmental policies or regulations which could significantly increase the cost of doing business with the government and the imposition of budgetary constraints.  Many governments are struggling to balance their budgets which could further reduce funding for contracts.  A loss of government contract revenues would have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

We depend on U.S. Government customers for a significant portion of our revenue, and sequestration (automatic, across-the-board U.S. Government budgetary spending cuts) currently required under the Budget Control Act of 2011 and the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2013 may have adverse consequences on our future business.

U.S. Government spending priorities and Department of Defense spending levels continue to be uncertain and difficult to predict and may be affected by numerous factors, including whether sequestration currently required under the Budget Control Act of 2011 and the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2013 and their actual impact on the Department of Defense budget and other programs. A shift in U.S. government spending priorities, or a reduction in total U.S. government spending, could have material adverse consequences on our future business.

If the U.S. government budget process results in a prolonged shutdown or prolonged operation under a continuing resolution, we may experience further delayed orders, delayed payments, declines in revenues, profitability and cash flows.

Sales to the U.S. government, prime contractors and agencies of the U.S. government represented between 13% and 15% of our total revenues in each of the past 3 fiscal years and our expected revenue for fiscal year 2015 and beyond depends, in part, on receiving a similar level of new orders from the U.S. government, which remains uncertain and difficult to predict.  If the U.S. government budget process results in a prolonged shutdown or prolonged operation under a continuing resolution, we may experience delayed orders, delayed payments, declines in revenues, profitability and cash flows. All of the aforementioned conditions could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial outlook, our operating results and our financial condition.
If revenues forecasted for a particular period are not realized in such period due to the lengthy, complex and unpredictable sales cycles of our products, our operating results, financial condition and cash flows for that or subsequent periods will be adversely affected.

The sales cycles of our products are typically lengthy, complex and unpredictable and usually involve:

· a significant technical evaluation period;
· a significant commitment of capital and other resources by service providers;
· substantial time required to engineer the deployment of our products;
· substantial time and expense testing and qualifying new technologies; and
· substantial time and expense deploying new technologies into their networks.

For these and other reasons, our sales cycles are generally between 6 and 18 months, but can last longer. If orders forecasted for a specific customer for a particular quarter do not occur in that quarter, our operating results, financial condition and cash flows for that quarter or subsequent quarters could be substantially lower than anticipated. Our quarterly and annual results may fluctuate significantly due to revenue recognition rules and the timing of the receipt of customer orders.  Additionally, service revenues such as installation services associated with product sales are impacted by such delays.

If we fail to develop and market new products and product enhancements in a timely manner, our business could be adversely affected.

Our future success is dependent on our development and marketing of additional products that achieve market acceptance and enhance our current products.  In addition, services, products or technologies developed by others may render one or more of our products or technologies uncompetitive, unmarketable or obsolete.  Our future success will depend on our ability to continue to enhance our existing products, including development of new applications for our technology, and to develop and introduce new products to meet and adapt to changing customer requirements and emerging technologies.  Our failure to respond to rapidly changing technologies could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. Our efforts to trim expenses in research and development could have the unintended consequence of impacting our delivery of new products or enhancements to existing products. Our inability to develop, on a timely basis, new products or enhancements to existing products, or the failure of such new products or enhancements to achieve market acceptance could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.  There can be no assurance that we will be successful in pursuing any new products or enhancements to existing products.

We are adapting our video solutions products to add features allowing deployments to cable, IPTV, and Internet CDN providers to enable multi-screen video delivery.  The changes will require new knowledge sets, especially in research and development, and will require us to develop and sell new products to new customers.  A failure to execute on this transition will adversely affect our business.

Our video expertise for more than ten years has been focused on the VOD market.  Although we have been successful in VOD, we recognize it is a relatively limited market and, as such, we are transitioning the business to serve video to all devices.  In order to accomplish this transformation, we have rolled out a new strategic plan and we are executing against that plan.  We are introducing the products necessary to serve these new markets.  We have also invested in new sales professionals to help us sell our existing and new products to a wider customer set.  We believe that these steps are necessary, but that they will be expensive.  We are making these investments in a challenging macroeconomic environment and may be unable to develop or sell any new marketable products.   In addition, we face robust competition both from internally-developed solutions and from large, well-positioned companies.  If we are not successful in establishing new products and new customers, we will have expended considerable effort and capital to transition the business and will not have received any economic benefit.
We cannot guarantee that our products and services will keep pace with technological developments and emerging industry standards, address the changing needs of our customers or achieve market acceptance, any of which could materially adversely affect our business.

The markets for our products are characterized by rapidly changing technology, evolving industry standards and new product introductions and enhancements.  There can be no assurance that we will be successful in enhancing our current and planned video solutions and real-time products or developing, integrating and marketing new products that satisfy customer needs or achieve market acceptance.  In addition, services, products or technologies developed by others may render one or more of our products or technologies uncompetitive, unmarketable or obsolete.  Future technological advances may result in the availability of new products and services that could compete with our solutions or reduce the cost of existing products or services.  Our future success will depend on our ability to continue to enhance our existing products, including development of new applications for our technology, and to develop and introduce new products to meet and adapt to changing customer requirements and emerging technologies.  Further, announcements of currently planned or other new product offerings by our competitors may cause customers to defer purchase decisions or to fail to purchase our existing solutions.  Our failure to respond to rapidly changing technologies could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

The introduction of broadband Internet video services for televisions may gain traction, thus replacing current VOD services and causing a negative impact on our revenue associated with our video solutions.

A number of well-funded companies such as Amazon, Apple, Hulu, Google, Netflix, and Yahoo are or will be capable of delivering Internet video services for home television viewing.  As these products are developed, successfully deployed and embraced by consumers, our customers may discontinue purchases of our video solutions products.

We have experienced competitive pricing pressure for our products and services and expect to continue to experience this pressure.  As pricing pressures continue, it may impact our revenue and call into question our ability to achieve and maintain profitability.

Over the years, our industry has experienced a decrease in average selling prices. We anticipate that the average selling prices of our products will continue to decrease in the future in response to competitive pricing pressures, increased sales discounts and new product introductions by our competitors. We may experience substantial decreases in future operating results, financial condition and cash flows due to a decrease of our average selling prices. We also anticipate that our gross margins will fluctuate from period to period as a result of the mix of products we sell in any given period. If our sales of lower margin products significantly expand in future quarterly periods, our overall gross margin levels, operating results, financial condition and cash flows would be adversely impacted.

We incurred net losses in the past and may incur further losses in the future.

We incurred net losses of $2.9, $3.3, $1.0, and $14.5 million in fiscal years ended June 30, 2012, 2011, 2010, and 2009, respectively.  Our $14.5 million net loss in fiscal year 2009 included a one-time $17.1 million non-cash impairment of intangibles.  As of June 30, 2014, we had an accumulated deficit of approximately $169.0 million.  We may have difficulty sustaining profitable operations and incur additional net losses in the future.

We have taken and continue to take measures to address the variability in the market for our products and services, which could have long-term negative effects on our business or impact our ability to adequately address an increase in customer demand.

We have taken and continue to take measures to address the variability in the market for our products and services, to increase average revenue per unit of our sales and to reduce our operating expenses, rationalize capital expenditure and minimize customer turnover. We cannot ensure that the measures we have taken will not impair our ability to effectively develop and market products and services, to remain competitive in the industries in which we compete, to operate effectively, to operate profitably during slowdowns or to effectively meet a rapid increase in customer demand. These measures may have long-term negative effects on our business by reducing our pool of technical and operational talent, decreasing or slowing improvements in our products and services, making it more difficult to hire and retain talented individuals and to quickly respond to customers or competitors in an upward cycle.
If we are unable to manage change in our operations effectively, our business may be harmed through a diminished ability to monitor and control effectively our operations, and a decrease in the quality of work and innovation of our employees.

Our ability to successfully offer new products and services and implement our business plan in a rapidly evolving market requires effective planning and management.  In light of the growing complexities in managing our portfolio of products and services, our anticipated future operations may strain our technical, operational and administrative resources.  A failure to manage changes in our volume of business may harm our business through a decreased ability to monitor and control effectively our operations, and a decrease in the quality of products and innovation of our employees upon which our business is dependent.  If we fail to meet customers’ supply expectations, we could incur penalties, our revenue would be adversely affected and we may lose business, which could materially and adversely affect our operating results, financial condition and cash flows.

Any weaknesses identified in our system of internal controls by us or our independent registered public accounting firm pursuant to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 could have an adverse effect on our business.

Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 requires that companies evaluate and report on their systems of internal control over financial reporting. In future periods, we may identify deficiencies in our system of internal controls over financial reporting that may require remediation. There can be no assurances that any such future deficiencies identified may not be significant deficiencies or material weaknesses that would be required to be reported in future periods.

We face risks associated with the trend of increased stockholder activism.

Publicly traded companies have increasingly become subject to campaigns by investors seeking to increase short-term stockholder value by advocating corporate actions such as financial restructuring, increased borrowing, special dividends, stock repurchases or even sales of assets or the entire company. Given our market capitalization and other factors, it is possible that stockholders may in the future attempt to effect such changes or acquire control over us. Responding to proxy contests and other actions by activist stockholders would be costly and time-consuming, disrupt our operations and divert the attention of our Board of Directors and senior management from the pursuit of business strategies, which could adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.

We utilize open source software, which could enable our competitors to gain access to our source code and distribute it without paying any license fee to us.

Key components of both our  video solutions and real time products utilize open source software on Linux platforms.  Some open source software, especially that provided under the GNU Public License, is provided pursuant to licenses that limit the restrictions that may be placed on the distribution and copying of the provided code.  Thus, it is possible that customers or competitors could copy portions of our software and freely distribute it.  This could substantially impact our business and our ability to protect our products and future business.

We rely on a combination of contracts and copyright, trademark, patent and trade secret laws to establish and protect our proprietary rights in our technology.  If we are unable to protect our intellectual property rights, our competitive position could be harmed or we could be required to incur expenses to enforce our rights.  Our business could also be adversely affected if we are found to be infringing on the intellectual property of others.

We typically enter into confidentiality or license agreements with our employees, consultants, customers and vendors, in an effort to control access to and distribution of our proprietary information.  Despite these precautions, it may be possible for a third party to copy or otherwise obtain and use our proprietary technology without authorization.  The steps we take may not prevent misappropriation of our intellectual property, and the agreements we enter into may not be enforceable.  In addition, effective copyright and trade secret protection may be unavailable or limited in some foreign countries.
Our competitors or other companies may currently own or obtain patents or other proprietary rights that might prevent, limit or interfere with our ability to make, use or sell our products.  Further, we have indemnification obligations with numerous customers that could require us to become involved in intellectual property litigation.  As a result, we may be found to be infringing on the intellectual property rights of others.  In the event of a successful claim of infringement against us or against a customer to which we have an indemnification obligation, our business and operating results, financial condition and cash flows could be adversely affected.

Any litigation or claims brought against us, whether or not valid, could result in substantial costs and diversion of our resources.  Intellectual property litigation or claims brought against us could force us to do one or more of the following:

· cease selling, incorporating or using products or services that incorporate the challenged intellectual property;
· obtain a license from the holder of the infringed intellectual property right, which license may not be available on reasonable terms, if at all; and
· redesign products or services that incorporate the disputed technology.

If we are forced to take any of the foregoing actions, we could face substantial costs and our business could be seriously harmed.  Although we carry general liability insurance, our insurance may not cover potential claims of this type or be adequate to indemnify us for all liability that may be imposed.

In addition, we may initiate claims or litigation against third parties in the future for infringement of our proprietary rights or to determine the scope and validity of our proprietary rights or the proprietary rights of competitors.  These claims could result in costly litigation and the diversion of our technical and management personnel and there can be no guarantee of success in any such action.  As a result, our operating results could suffer and our financial condition and cash flows could be harmed.

The markets in which we operate are highly competitive, and we may be unable to compete successfully against our current and future competitors, which would adversely affect our business.

The markets for video solutions and real-time products are extremely competitive.  Our competitors include divisions of larger public companies with an established presence in the industry.  Further, as we expand our product offerings to additional delivery devices, we encounter a different set of competitors.  This intense competition has negatively impacted our video solutions revenues and may severely impact our success and ability to earn additional revenue through expanding our video solutions offerings.

In addition to competing against large, established video delivery product providers, our MDI products are seeing competition by internally-developed solutions.

The market for our real-time products is ever changing.  We face a number of well-funded competitors who could displace us.  As demand shifts, we may be unable to adequately respond to customer demands or technology changes.  There may be new entrants into the real-time market with better, more appropriate products.  We may also experience decreasing prices for our products and services due to competition, the purchasing leverage of our customers and other factors.

A list of the primary competitors we face in both of our markets and a categorization of our competitors is included under the Competition heading in Part I, Item 1., the Business section of this Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2014.
 
Future issuances or repurchases of our equity, or transfers of our equity by third parties, may impair our future ability to use a substantial amount of our existing net operating loss carryforwards.

From time to time we complete an analysis of the ownership changes in our stock pursuant to Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Service tax code.  As of June 30, 2014, the ownership change was 31.8%, compared to 32.6% as of June 30, 2013. Future transactions and the timing of such transactions could cause an additional ownership change for Section 382 income tax purposes. Section 382 limits the ability of a company that undergoes an “ownership change,” which is generally defined as any change in ownership of more than 50% of its common stock over a three-year period, to utilize its net operating loss carryforwards and certain built-in losses or deductions, as of the ownership change date, that are recognized during the five-year period after the ownership change.  Such transactions may include, but are not limited to, additional repurchases or issuances of common stock, or acquisitions or sales of shares of Concurrent stock by certain holders of our shares, including persons who have held, currently hold or may accumulate in the future five percent or more of our outstanding common stock for their own account. Most of these transactions are beyond our control. If an additional ownership change were to occur for purposes of Section 382, we would be required to calculate a new annual restriction on the use of our net operating loss carryforwards to offset future taxable income.  We could lose all or a substantial part of the benefit of our accumulated net operating loss carryforwards.
We have a significant base of deployed video solutions products that our customers, over time, may decide to replace for products from other companies.

A significant number of our on-demand products have been deployed for several years and may be replaced with newer products.  When our customers evaluate replacing those older products, they may choose to try a different vendor.  If that were to occur, we would lose future revenue opportunities from expansion as well as maintenance.

Continuing uncertainties in the domestic and global economies may reduce demand for our products and services.

The ongoing uncertainty in the recovery in the domestic and global economy may negatively affect our operating results, financial condition and operating results.  The uncertainty in economic conditions in many of our markets may impact demand for our products and render budgeting and forecasting difficult. The difficulty in forecasting demand increases the difficulty in anticipating our inventory requirements, which may cause us to over-produce finished goods, resulting in inventory impairments, or under-produce finished goods, affecting our ability to meet customer requirements.

Our operating results, financial condition and cash flows may vary based on changes in our customers’ capital expenditures. We sell our solutions primarily to large organizations whose businesses fluctuate with general economic and business conditions. As a result, decreased demand for our solutions and services caused by a weakening global economy may cause a decline in our revenue. Historically, economic downturns have resulted in overall reductions in corporate spending.  In the future, potential customers may decide to reduce their budgets for capital expenditures by deferring or reconsidering product purchases, which would negatively impact our operating results, financial results and cash flows.

In some cases, we rely on a limited number of suppliers, which entails several risks, including the possibility of defective parts, a shortage of components, an increase in component costs, and reduced control over delivery schedules.

Our reliance on single suppliers entails a number of risks, including the possibility of defective parts, a shortage of components, increase in components costs, and reduced control over delivery schedules.  Any of these events could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition. We estimate that a lead-time of 12-16 weeks may be necessary to switch to an alternative supplier of certain custom application specific integrated circuit and printed circuit assemblies.  A change in the supplier of these components, without the appropriate lead-time, could result in a material delay in shipments by us of certain products.  Where alternative sources are available, qualification of the alternative suppliers and establishment of reliable supplies of components from such sources may also result in delays.  Shipping delays may also result in a delay in revenue recognition, possibly outside the fiscal period originally planned, and, as a result, may adversely affect our financial results for that particular period.  See the Supplier heading in Part I, Item 1., the Business section of this Annual Report on Form 10-K for additional information.

A large number of our maintenance contracts are for legacy systems that are aging and may be replaced.

A large percentage of the services we provide are to customers who run our legacy hardware and systems.  Over time, these systems will be replaced and the customers may not choose to purchase replacement systems from us.   In such a case, our service revenue will be materially negatively impacted.
Sales to international customers accounted for approximately 42%, 39% and 50% of our revenue in fiscal years 2014, 2013, and 2012, respectively.  Accordingly, our business is susceptible to numerous risks associated with international operations.

We are subject to a number of risks associated with international business activities that could increase our costs, lengthen our sales cycle and require significant management attention.  These risks include:

· compliance with, and unexpected changes in, regulatory requirements resulting in unanticipated costs and delays;
· difficulties in compliance with export and re-export regulations governing U.S. goods and goods from our international subsidiaries;
· lack of availability of trained personnel in international locations;
· challenges in dealing with international channel partners;
· tariffs, export controls and other trade barriers;
· longer accounts receivable payment cycles than in the U.S.;
· potential difficulty of enforcing agreements and collecting receivables in some foreign legal systems;
· potential difficulty in enforcing intellectual property rights in certain foreign countries;
· potentially adverse tax consequences, including restrictions on the repatriation of earnings;
· the burdens of complying with a wide variety of foreign laws;
· general economic and political conditions in international markets; and
· currency exchange rate fluctuations.

Our efforts to maintain channels to market and sell our products internationally may not be successful.

Our international sales are supported by a combination of direct sales in certain international locations and indirect channel sales through distributor and reseller arrangements with third parties in others.  We may not be able to maintain productive reseller and/or distribution agreements and/or may not be able to successfully manage these sales channels. In addition, many of our resellers also sell products from other vendors that compete with our products and may choose to focus on products of those vendors.  Additionally, our ability to utilize an indirect sales model in these international markets will depend on our ability to qualify and train those resellers to perform product installations and to provide customer support. If we fail to develop and cultivate relationships with significant resellers, or if these resellers do not succeed in their sales efforts (whether because they are unable to provide support or otherwise), we may be unable to grow or sustain our revenue in international markets.

We are exposed to fluctuations in currency exchange rates that could negatively impact our financial results and cash flows.

To date, most of our revenues have been denominated in U.S. dollars, while a significant portion of our international expenses are incurred in the local currencies of countries in which we operate. Because a portion of our business is conducted outside the U.S., we face exposure to adverse movements in foreign currency exchange rates. These exposures may change over time as business practices evolve, and they could have a material adverse impact on our financial results and cash flows.  An increase in the value of the dollar could increase the real cost to our customers of our products in those markets outside the U.S. where we often sell in dollars, and a weakened dollar could increase local currency operating costs.  In preparing our consolidated financial statements, certain financial information is required to be translated from foreign currencies to the U.S. dollar using either the spot rate or the weighted-average exchange rate. If the U.S. dollar changes relative to applicable local currencies, there is a risk our reported sales, operating expenses, and net income could significantly fluctuate. We are not able to predict the degree of exchange rate fluctuations, nor can we estimate the effect any future fluctuations may have upon our future operations.
 
Product failures or interruptions could cause delays in shipments, require design modifications or field replacement, which may have a negative impact on our business and damage our reputation and customer relationships.

Product failures may adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.  Despite our own testing and additional testing by current and potential customers, all errors or failures may not be found in our products prior to being deployed or, if discovered, successfully corrected in a timely manner. These errors or failures could cause delays in product introductions and shipments or require design modifications that could adversely affect our competitive position.  Further, some errors may not be detected until the systems are deployed.  In such a case, we may have to undertake substantial field replacement programs to correct the problem.  Our reputation may also suffer if our customers view our products as unreliable, whether based on actual or perceived errors or failures in our products.
In addition, a defect, error or performance problem with our video solutions products could cause our customers’ offerings to fail for a period of time or be degraded.  Any such failure would cause customer service and public relations problems for our customers.  As a result, we could experience delayed or lost revenue due to adverse customer reaction, negative publicity regarding us and our products and services and claims for substantial damages against us, regardless of our responsibility for such failure.  Any claim could be expensive and require us to spend a significant amount of resources.  In circumstances where third party technology incorporated with or in our systems includes a defect, error or performance problem or fails for any reason, we may have to replace such third party technology at our expense and be responsible to our customers for their corresponding claims.  Such tasks could be expensive and could require us to spend a significant amount of resources.

Trends in our business may cause our quarterly operating results to fluctuate; therefore, period-to-period comparisons of our operating results may not necessarily be meaningful.

We have experienced significant variations in the revenue, expenses and operating results from quarter to quarter in our business, and it is likely that these variations will continue.  We believe that fluctuations in the number of orders for our products being placed from quarter to quarter are principally attributable to the buying patterns and budgeting cycles of our customers.  In addition, sales cycles associated with the purchase of many of our products are typically lengthy and orders are often not finalized until the end of a quarter.  As a result, our results of operations have fluctuated in the past and will likely continue to fluctuate in accordance with this purchasing activity.  Therefore, period-to-period comparisons of our operating results may not necessarily be meaningful.  In addition, because these factors are difficult for us to forecast, our business, financial condition and results of operations for one quarter or a series of quarters may be adversely affected and below the expectations of securities analysts and investors, which could result in material declines of our stock price.

Our business may be adversely affected if we fail to retain our current key personnel, many of whom would be difficult to replace, or fail to attract additional qualified personnel.

Our future performance depends on the continued service of our senior management and our engineering, sales and marketing and operations personnel.  Competition for qualified personnel is intense, and we may fail to retain our key employees or to attract or retain other highly qualified personnel.  The loss of the services of one or more of our key personnel could seriously impact our business, especially the loss of highly specialized technical personnel.  Our future success also depends on our continuing ability to attract, hire, train and retain highly skilled managerial, technical, sales, marketing and customer support personnel.  In addition, new employees frequently require extensive training before they achieve desired levels of productivity.  We do not carry key person life insurance on any of our employees.

As our products age, we may not be able to purchase necessary parts to support legacy systems currently deployed or to be deployed.

With the passage of time, suppliers of essential parts may stop producing these parts.  In such cases, we may be required to redesign our products to accommodate the obsolescence.  If that occurs, we will have to spend considerable effort in the redesign and, in some cases, may be forced to have the redesigned products requalified.  Requalification may take several months, thereby delaying expected revenue.

We could be exposed to legal liability if our products were used to violate copyright laws.

Our products enable recording, storing, and delivering video over commercial broadband networks.  Thus, our customers could use our products without first obtaining permission from content owners to record and deliver copyrighted video.  In such a situation, we could face liability for claims that our products enabled or assisted in breaching copyright laws.
If content providers, such as movie studios, limit the scope of content licensed for use in the digital video market, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be negatively affected because the potential market for our products would be more limited than we currently believe.

The success of the video market is contingent on content providers, such as movie studios, continuing to permit their content to be licensed for distribution in this market. Content providers may, due to concerns regarding marketing or illegal duplication of the content, limit the extent to which they provide content to the markets served by our customers and potential customers. A limitation of available content would indirectly limit the demand for our video solutions.

Our facilities, especially our Pompano Beach, Florida facility, could be subject to severe weather that could shut down those facilities and halt production.

All of our facilities are, from time to time, subject to severe weather that could result in a temporary shut-down of the impacted facility.  However, our Pompano Beach, Florida facility is located in south Florida where there is a high risk of hurricanes.  A hurricane could shut down the Pompano Beach facility for extended periods thereby making it impossible for us to assemble and ship real-time products.  Further, an extended shut-down could slow the release of software products for our real-time business since most of the developers for those products are located at that facility.

We may engage in future acquisitions that dilute the ownership interest of our stockholders, cause us to incur debt or assume contingent liabilities or present other challenges, such as integration issues, for our business, which if not successfully resolved would adversely affect our business.

As part of our business strategy, we review acquisition prospects that would complement our current product offerings, enhance our technical capabilities or otherwise offer growth opportunities.  We periodically review investments in new businesses, and we may acquire businesses, products or technologies in the future.  In the event of any future acquisitions, we could issue equity securities that would dilute current stockholders’ percentage ownership, incur substantial debt, or assume contingent liabilities.  These actions could materially adversely affect our operating results, financial condition and cash flows.  Acquisitions also entail numerous risks, including:

· difficulties in the assimilation of acquired operations, technologies or services;
· unanticipated costs associated with the acquisition;
· diversion of management’s attention from other business concerns;
· adverse effects on existing business relationships;
· risks associated with entering markets in which we have no or limited prior experience; and
· potential loss of key employees of acquired companies.

We cannot assure that we will be able to successfully integrate any business, products, technologies or personnel that we might acquire in the future.  Our failure to do so could materially adversely affect our business, operating results and financial condition.

Our operating results may be adversely affected by the current sovereign debt crisis and continuing recession in Europe and elsewhere and by related global economic conditions.

The lingering effects of the European debt crisis and related European financial restructuring efforts may cause the value of the European currencies, including the euro, to further deteriorate, thus reducing the purchasing power of our European customers. One potential outcome of the European financial situation is the re-introduction of individual currencies in one or more Eurozone countries or the dissolution of the euro entirely. Should the euro dissolve entirely, the legal and contractual consequences for holders of euro-denominated obligations would be determined by laws in effect at such time. The potential dissolution of the euro, or market perceptions concerning this and related issues, could adversely affect the value of our euro-denominated assets and obligations. In addition, the European crisis has contributed to instability in global credit markets. The world continues to experience a global macroeconomic downturn, and if global economic and market conditions, or economic conditions in Europe, the U.S. or other key markets, remain uncertain, persist, or deteriorate further, consumer purchasing power and demand for our products could decline, and we may experience material adverse impacts on our business, operating results, and financial condition.
We may not be able to adequately protect our intellectual property rights.

Protecting our global intellectual property rights and combating unlicensed copying and use of software and other intellectual property is difficult. While piracy may adversely affect U.S. revenue, the impact on revenue from outside the U.S. is likely to be more significant, particularly in countries where laws are less protective of intellectual property rights.  Our revenues may be impacted if our intellectual property is copied or otherwise misappropriated and we are not able to successfully assert our rights over our intellectual property.  We may be unable to close sales if our intellectual property is copied; we may face increased competition if our trade secrets are disclosed; and our reputation may be negatively impacted if our company or product names are misused.  Similarly, the absence of harmonized patent laws makes it more difficult to ensure consistent respect for patent rights, making enforcement more difficult.  Reductions in the legal protection for software intellectual property rights could adversely affect revenue.

Risks Related to Our Industries

The success of our business is dependent upon the success of our multi-screen strategy and the growth in the video delivery market, which may not grow as we expect.  Any failure by the market to accept and adopt video delivery in a way that aligns with our stated strategy will have a material adverse effect on our business.

We believe that the business model that will support widespread multi-screen adoption of video delivery is still evolving.  The potential size of the market and timing of market development is uncertain.  We believe our success in these new markets will also depend on the adoption of an advertising based business model by key industry participants and our ability to offer the mix of products that allow these participants to introduce offerings which will support that model.

Our business is subject to governmental regulation.  Any finding that we have been or are currently in noncompliance with such laws could result in, among other things, governmental penalties or class action lawsuits.  Further, changes in existing laws or new laws may adversely affect our business.

We are subject to various international, U.S. federal, state and local laws affecting our video solutions and real-time product lines.  The television industry is subject to extensive regulation in the U.S. and other countries.  Our video solutions revenue is dependent upon the continued growth of the digital television industry in the U.S. and internationally.  Broadband companies are subject to extensive government regulation by the FCC and other federal and state regulatory agencies.  The 1984 Cable Act, which amended the Communications Act of 1934, established policies in the areas of ownership, channel usage, franchise provisions and renewals, subscriber rates and privacy, obscenity and lockboxes, unauthorized reception of services, equal employment opportunity, and pole attachments. The 1984 Cable Act also defined jurisdictional boundaries among federal, state and local authorities for regulating cable television systems which, among other provisions, allow for expanded regulatory powers when domestic cable penetration exceeds a threshold of 70% of U.S. households.  Additional regulations could have the effect of limiting capital expenditures by our customers and thus could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.  If we were found to be, or believed to be non-compliant with privacy laws, we could face substantial exposure to government fines or privacy litigation.  This risk is important for our MDI solutions since these products monitor STB functions that could be impacted by privacy law protections. In addition, new ‘net neutrality’ legislation or regulations could be implemented or interpreted in a way that curtails certain of our products’ uses within our customer’s data networks and adversely impacts our customers’ ability to operate its those networks efficiently or profitably.  This could impact our sales of those products.    The enactment by federal, state or international governments of new laws or regulations could adversely affect our customers, and thereby materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.  Our real-time revenue is also subject to strict government regulation as the result of the government work we do.  The regulations deal with security clearances, privacy, employment practices, pricing, purchasing, intellectual property and integrity.  If we were ever found in violation or if out of compliance, our production and resultant revenues could be halted or significantly delayed.

We may be subject to liability if private information supplied to our customers is misused.

Our video solutions allow companies to collect and store data that many viewers may consider confidential.  Unauthorized access or use of this information could result in liability to our customers, and potentially us, and might deter potential on-demand viewers.  We have no control over the policy of our customers with respect to the access to this data and the release of this data to third parties.
Other Risks

Fluctuations in our future effective tax rates could affect our future operating results, financial condition and cash flows.

We are required to periodically review our deferred tax assets and determine whether, based on available evidence, a valuation allowance is necessary. Accordingly, we have performed such evaluation, from time to time, based on historical evidence, trends in profitability, expectations of future taxable income and implemented tax planning strategies. Further, although we benefit from net operating loss carryforwards in the U.S., some of our foreign subsidiaries do not have such net operating losses, exposing us to tax liabilities in various countries.

The calculation of tax liabilities involves dealing with uncertainties in the application of complex global tax regulations. We recognize potential liabilities for anticipated tax audit issues in the U.S. and other tax jurisdictions based on our estimate of whether, and the extent to which, additional taxes will be due. In the event we determine that it is appropriate to create a reserve or increase an existing reserve for any such potential liabilities, the amount of the additional reserve is charged as an expense in the period in which it is determined. If payment of these amounts ultimately proves to be unnecessary, the reversal of the liabilities would result in tax benefits being recognized in the period when we determine the liabilities are no longer necessary. If the estimate of tax liabilities proves to be less than the ultimate tax assessment for the applicable period, a further charge to expense in the period such short fall is determined would result. Such a charge to expense could have a material and adverse effect on our results of operations for the applicable period.

During the fourth quarter of our fiscal year 2014, we released $13.7 million of valuation allowances against our U.S. deferred tax assets.  Positive or negative changes to our business in the future may require either an additional release of our valuation allowances, which would result in additional tax benefits that would improve our net income, or require us to increase our valuation allowance, which would result in additional income tax expense that would negatively impact our net income.  See Note 8 for further discussion.

We have implemented certain anti-takeover provisions that could make it more difficult for a third party to acquire us.

Provisions of Delaware law and our restated certificate of incorporation, and amended and restated bylaws, could make it more difficult for a third party to acquire us, even if doing so would be beneficial to our stockholders.

We are subject to certain Delaware anti-takeover laws regulating corporate takeovers.  These anti-takeover laws prevent a Delaware corporation from engaging in a business combination involving a merger or sale of more than 10% of our assets with any stockholder, including affiliates and associates of the stockholder, who owns 15% or more of the outstanding voting stock, for three years following the date that the stockholder acquired 15% or more of the corporation’s stock except under limited circumstances.

There are provisions in our restated certificate of incorporation and our amended and restated bylaws that also may delay, deter or impede hostile takeovers or changes of control.

Our stock price has been volatile in the past and may be volatile in the future.

Our common stock is traded on the NASDAQ Global Market.  For the 12 months ended June 30, 2014, the high and low prices reported on the NASDAQ Global Market were $8.88 and $6.78, respectively.  Further, as of August 22, 2014, the closing price as reported on the NASDAQ Global Market was $7.27.  The market price of our common stock may fluctuate significantly in the future in response to various factors, some of which are beyond our control, including, among others:

· variations in our quarterly operating results;
· changes in securities analysts’ estimates of our financial performance;
· the development of the multi-screen video market in general;
· changes in market valuations of similar companies;
· announcement by us or our competitors of significant contracts, acquisitions, strategic partnerships, joint ventures or capital commitments;
· loss of a major customer or failure to complete significant transactions;
· Consolidation of companies that comprise our target market;
· suspension, reduction or cancellation of the quarterly dividend; and
· additions or departures of key personnel.

In addition, in recent years, the stock market in general, and the NASDAQ Global Market and the market for technology companies in particular, have experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations.  In some cases, these fluctuations have been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of these companies.  These market and industry factors may materially and adversely affect our stock price, regardless of our operating performance.

In the past, class action litigation often has been brought against companies following periods of volatility in the market price of those companies’ common stock.  We may become involved in this type of litigation in the future.  Litigation is often expensive and diverts management’s attention and resources, which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

A sustained period of low stock price brings with it a risk that our stock will not comply with the minimum trading-price rules of the NASDAQ Global Market, and may be subject to delisting, thus significantly impacting the liquidity of our stock and our access to public capital.

On August 22, 2014, the last reported sale price of our common stock on NASDAQ was $7.27 per share.  As of August 22, 2014, there were 801 registered holders of record  of our common stock.

Until July 2, 2012, we had never declared or paid any cash dividends on our capital stock.  On July 2, 2012, our Board of Directors approved the payment of quarterly cash dividends per share of common stock, excluding treasury and restricted stock.  We paid four quarterly cash dividends, each for $0.12 per share, during our fiscal year 2014.  During our fiscal year 2013, we paid four $0.06 per share cash dividends, one $0.12 per share cash dividend, and a $0.50 per share special cash dividend.  We intend to pay a regular quarterly cash dividend on our common shares subject to, among other things, our results of operations, cash balances, future cash requirements, financial condition, statutory requirements of Delaware law, and other factors that the Board of Directors may deem relevant.  We believe that a portion of our dividends may be treated as a return of capital to stockholders, rather than dividend income, as we believe dividend payments may exceed our cumulative earnings and profits.

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

The following Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and the related Notes thereto, which appear elsewhere herein.  Except for the historical financial information, many of the matters discussed in this Item 7 may be considered “forward-looking” statements that reflect our plans, estimates and beliefs.  Actual results could differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements.  Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed below, elsewhere herein, including in Item 1A. Risk Factors, and in other filings made with the SEC.

Overview

We provide software, hardware and professional services for the video market and the high-performance, real-time market.  Our business is comprised of two operating segments for financial reporting purposes, products and services, which we provide for each of these markets.

Our video solutions consist of software, hardware, and services for intelligently streaming video and collecting and analyzing media data.  Our video solutions and services are deployed by video service providers for distribution of video to consumers and collection of media data intelligence to manage their video business and operations.
Our real-time products consist of real-time Linux operating systems, development tools and other system software combined, in most cases, with computer platforms and services.  These products are sold to a wide variety of companies seeking high-performance, real-time computer solutions in the military, aerospace, financial and automotive markets around the world.

Application of Critical Accounting Policies

The SEC defines “critical accounting policies” as those that require application of management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain and may change in subsequent periods.

The following is not intended to be a comprehensive list of all of our accounting policies.  Our significant accounting policies are more fully described in Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.  In many cases, the accounting treatment of a particular transaction is specifically dictated by accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S., with no need for management’s judgment in their application.  There are also areas in which management’s judgment in selecting an available alternative would not produce a materially different result.

We have identified the following as accounting policies critical to us:

Revenue Recognition and Related Matters

As described in footnotes 2 of our consolidated financial statements, in September 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2009-13, Multiple Deliverable Revenue Arrangements – A Consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force (“ASU 2009-13”). This guidance pertains to revenue arrangements with multiple deliverables, and accounting guidance on all tangible products containing both software and non-software components that function together to deliver the product’s essential functionality.  We adopted these new accounting standards on July 1, 2010, and we elected to apply the guidance on a prospective basis.

We generate revenue from the sale of products and services. We commence revenue recognition when all of the following conditions are met:

· persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists,
· the system has been delivered or the services have been performed,
· the fee is fixed or determinable, and
· collection of the fee is probable.

Determination of criteria 3 and 4 above are based on our judgments regarding the fixed nature of the fee charged for products and services delivered and the collectability of those fees.

Our standard multiple-element contractual arrangements with our customers generally include the delivery of systems with multiple components of hardware and software, certain professional services that typically involve installation and consulting, and ongoing system maintenance.  Product revenue is generally recognized when the product is delivered.  Professional services that are of a consultative nature may take place prior to, or after, delivery of the system, and installation services typically occur within 90 days after delivery of the system.  Professional services revenue is typically recognized as the service is performed.  Initial warranty begins after delivery of the system and typically is provided for 90 days to three years after delivery. Maintenance revenue, where applicable, will be recognized ratably over the maintenance period. Our product sales are predominantly system sales whereby software and equipment function together to deliver the essential functionality of the combined product.  Upon our adoption of ASU 2009-14 on July 1, 2010, we determined sales of these systems were typically outside of the scope of the software revenue guidance in Topic 985 (previously included in SOP 97-2) and should be accounted for under ASU 2009-13.
Our sales model for MDI products includes the option for customers to purchase a perpetual license, a term license, or software as a service. Customers also have the option to purchase maintenance or managed services with their license.  Revenue from these sales generally is recognized over the term of the various customer arrangements.  Professional services attributable to implementation of our MDI products or managed services are essential to the customers’ use of these products and services.  We defer commencement of revenue recognition for the entire arrangement until we have delivered the essential professional services or have made a determination that the remaining professional services are no longer essential to the customer.  We recognize revenue for managed services and software-as-a-service arrangements once we commence providing the managed or software services and recognize the service revenue ratably over the term of the various customer contracts.  In circumstances whereby we sell a term or perpetual license and maintenance or managed services, we commence revenue recognition after both the software and service are made available to the customer and recognize the revenue from the entire arrangement ratably over the longer of the term license or service period, because we do not have vendor specific objective evidence (“VSOE”) for either our term licenses or our maintenance and managed services for MDI solutions.

We evaluate each element in a multiple-element arrangement to determine whether it represents a separate unit of accounting.  An element constitutes a separate unit of accounting when the delivered item has standalone value and delivery of the undelivered element is probable and within our control.  Our various systems have standalone value because we have either routinely sold them on a standalone basis or we believe that our customers could resell the delivered system on a standalone basis.  Professional services have standalone value because we have routinely sold them on a standalone basis, there are similar third-party vendors that routinely provide similar professional services, and certain customers perform the installation themselves.  Our maintenance has standalone value because we have routinely sold maintenance separately.

In October 2009, the FASB amended the accounting standards for multiple-element revenue arrangements under ASU 2009-13 to:

· provide updated guidance on whether multiple deliverables exist, how the elements in an arrangement should be separated, and how the consideration should be allocated;
· require an entity to allocate revenue in an arrangement using estimated selling price (“ESP”) of each element if a vendor does not have VSOE or third party evidence (“TPE”); and
· eliminate the use of the residual method and require a vendor to allocate revenue using the relative selling price method.

As a result of the adoption of ASU 2009-13, we allocate revenue to each element in an arrangement based on the following selling price hierarchy: the selling price for a deliverable is based on its VSOE, if available, TPE, if VSOE is not available, or ESP, if neither VSOE nor TPE is available. We have typically been able to establish VSOE of fair value for our maintenance and services. We determine VSOE of fair value for professional services and maintenance by examining the population of selling price for the same or similar services when sold separately and on a standalone basis, and determining that the pricing population for each VSOE classification is within a very narrow range of the median selling price.  For each element, we evaluate at least annually whether or not we have maintained VSOE of fair value based on our review of the actual selling price of each element over the previous 12 month period.

Our product deliverables are typically comprised of complete systems with numerous hardware and software components that operate together to provide essential functionality, and we are typically unable to establish VSOE or TPE of fair value for our products.  Due to the custom nature of our products, we must determine ESP at the individual component level whereby our estimated selling price for the total system is determined based on the sum of the individual components.  ESP for components of our real-time products is typically based upon list price, which is representative of our actual selling price.  ESP for components of our video solutions products are based upon our most frequent selling price (“mode”) of standalone and bundled sales, based upon a 12 month historical analysis.  If a mode selling price is not available, then ESP will be the median selling price of all such component sales based upon a 12 month historical analysis, unless facts and circumstances indicate that another selling price, other than the mode or median selling price, is more representative of our estimated selling price.  Our methodology for determining estimated selling price requires judgment, and any changes to pricing practices, the costs incurred to integrate products, the nature of our relationships with our customers, and market trends could cause variability in our estimated selling prices or cause us to re-evaluate our methodology for determining estimated selling price.  We update our analysis of mode and median selling price at least annually, unless facts and circumstances indicate that more frequent analysis is required.
Occasionally, we sell software under multiple element arrangements that do not include hardware. Under these software arrangements, we allocate revenue to the various elements based on VSOE of fair value.  Our VSOE of fair value is determined based on the price charged when the same element is sold separately.  If VSOE of fair value does not exist for all elements in a multiple element arrangement, but does exist for undelivered elements, we recognize revenue using the residual method.  Under the residual method, the fair value of the undelivered elements is deferred and the remaining portion of the arrangement is recognized as revenue.  Where fair value of undelivered elements has not been established, the total arrangement is recognized over the period during which the services are performed.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

The allowance for doubtful accounts receivable is based on an analysis of our historical charge-off ratio, our aging of accounts receivable and our assessment of the collectability of our receivables.  If there is a deterioration of one of our major customer’s credit worthiness or actual account defaults are higher than our historical trends, our reserve estimates could be adversely impacted.

Inventory Valuation

We provide for inventory obsolescence based upon assumptions about future demand, market conditions and anticipated timing of the release of next generation products.  If actual market conditions or future demand are less favorable than those projected, or if next generation products are released earlier than anticipated, additional inventory write-downs may be required.  We also review, on a quarterly basis, the value of inventory on hand for which a newer and more advanced technology or product is currently, or will soon be, available.  When we believe that we will not be able to sell the products in inventory at or above cost, we mark the inventory down to market value.

Income Taxes

As part of the process of preparing our consolidated financial statements, we are required to estimate income taxes in each of the jurisdictions in which we operate.  The provision for income taxes is determined using the asset and liability approach for accounting for income taxes.  A current liability is recognized for the estimated taxes payable for the current year.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the timing differences are expected to be recovered or settled.  The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of changes in tax rates or tax laws are recognized in the provision for income taxes in the period that includes the enactment date.

Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount more-likely-than-not to be realized.  To the extent we establish or change the valuation allowance in a period, the tax effect will generally flow through the statement of operations.  In the case of an acquired or merged entity, we will record any valuation allowance on a deferred tax asset established through purchase accounting procedures as an adjustment to goodwill at the acquisition date.   Any subsequent change to a valuation allowance established during purchase accounting that occurs within the measurement period of the acquisition (a period not to exceed 12 months) will also be recorded as an adjustment to goodwill, provided that such a change relates to new information about the facts and circumstances that existed on the acquisition date.   All other changes to a valuation allowance established during purchase accounting will flow through the statement of operations.

The determination of our provision for income taxes requires significant judgment, the use of estimates and the interpretation and application of complex tax laws.  We are subject to income taxes in the U.S. and numerous foreign jurisdictions.  Significant judgment is required in determining our worldwide provision for income taxes and recording the related tax assets and liabilities.  In the ordinary course of our business, there are transactions and calculations for which the ultimate tax determination is uncertain.  In spite of our belief that we have appropriate support for all the positions taken on our tax returns, we acknowledge that certain positions may be successfully challenged by the taxing authorities.  Therefore, an accrual for uncertain tax positions is provided for, when necessary.  In the event that we have accruals for uncertain tax positions, these accruals are reviewed quarterly and reversed upon being sustained under audit, the expiration of the statute of limitations, new information, or other determination by the taxing authorities.  The provision for income taxes includes the impact of changes in uncertain tax positions.  Although we believe our recorded tax assets and liabilities are reasonable, tax laws and regulations are subject to interpretation and inherent uncertainty; therefore our assessments can involve both a series of complex judgments about future events and rely on estimates and assumptions.  Although we believe these estimates and assumptions are reasonable, the final determination could be materially different than that which is reflected in our provision for income taxes and recorded tax assets and liabilities.
In the calculation of our quarterly provision for income taxes, we use an annual effective rate based on expected annual income and statutory tax rates, which may require judgments and estimates.  The tax (or benefit) applicable to significant unused or infrequently occurring items, discontinued operations or extraordinary items are separately recognized in the income tax provision in the quarter in which they occur.

In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, we consider whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of our deferred tax assets will not be realized.  In determining whether or not a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets is needed, we evaluate all available evidence, both positive and negative, including: trends in operating income or losses; currently available information about future years; future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences; future taxable income exclusive of reversing temporary differences and carryforwards; taxable income in prior carryback years if carryback is permitted under the tax law; and tax planning strategies that would accelerate taxable amounts to utilize expiring carryforwards, change the character of taxable and deductible amounts from ordinary income or loss to capital gain or loss, or switch from tax-exempt to taxable investments.  The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible.  As of June 30, 2014, we maintain a full valuation allowance on our net deferred tax assets in all jurisdictions except Japan, the U.K., and the U.S.  We believe that it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will not be realized in the jurisdictions in which we maintain a full valuation allowance.  In Japan and the U.K., we believe that it is more likely than not that we will realize our entire deferred tax inventory, and no valuation allowance is needed.  We evaluated the recent trend of positive operating results in the U.S. and concluded during the fourth quarter of our fiscal year 2014 that it is now more likely than not that we will realize a portion of our U.S. deferred tax asset due to the historical trend of positive operating income and expectations of future income.  Based upon our estimate of future U.S. earnings, $13.7 million of our valuation allowance is being realized during the fourth quarter of our fiscal year 2014.  We will continue to evaluate our assumptions each quarter regarding the need for a valuation allowance for all jurisdictions and will make appropriate adjustments as necessary.  See Note 8 for more information.

Indemnifications and Warranties

We recognize the fair value of guarantee and indemnification arrangements issued or modified by us, if these arrangements are within the scope of the interpretation.  In addition, we must continue to monitor the conditions that are subject to the indemnifications, as required under previously existing GAAP, in order to identify if a loss has occurred.  If we determine that it is probable that a loss has occurred, then any such estimable loss would be recognized under those indemnifications.  Under our standard software license, services and maintenance agreement, we often agree to indemnify, defend and hold harmless our licensees from and against certain losses, damages and costs arising from claims alleging the licensees’ use of our software infringes the intellectual property rights of a third party.  Historically, we have not been required to pay material amounts in connection with claims asserted under these provisions and, accordingly, we have not recorded a liability relating to such provisions.

Under our software licenses, services and maintenance agreements, we also represent and warrant to licensees that our software products will operate substantially in accordance with our published specifications regarding the product, and that the services we perform will be undertaken by qualified personnel in a professional manner conforming to generally accepted industry standards and practices.  Historically, only minimal costs have been incurred relating to the satisfaction of product warranty claims.

Other potential obligations could arise from promises to indemnify, defend and hold harmless each of our executive officers, non-employee directors and certain key employees from and against losses, damages and costs incurred by each such individual in administrative, legal or investigative proceedings arising from alleged wrongdoing by the individual while acting in good faith within the scope of his or her job duties on our behalf.  Historically, minimal costs have been incurred relating to such indemnifications and, as such, no amount has been accrued for these types of potential obligations.

Stock-Based Compensation

We account for stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718-10, which requires that the cost resulting from all share-based payment transactions be recognized in the financial statements and requires application of a fair-value-based measurement method in accounting for share-based payment transactions with employees.  Assumptions used to estimate compensation expense from issuance of share-based compensation are based, to some extent, on historical experience and expectation of future conditions.  To the extent we issue additional share-based compensation, or assumptions regarding previously issued share-based compensation change, our future share-based compensation expense may be positively or negatively impacted.

Defined Benefit Pension Plan

We maintain defined benefit pension plans (the “Pension Plan”) for a number of former employees of our German subsidiary (“participants”).  In 1998 the Pension Plan was closed to new employees and no existing employees are eligible to participate, as all eligible participants are no longer employed by Concurrent. The Pension Plan provides benefits to be paid to all participants at retirement based primarily on years of service with Concurrent and compensation rates in effect near retirement. Our policy is to fund benefits attributed to participants’ services to date as well as service expected to be earned in the future.  The determination of our Pension Plan benefit obligation and expense is dependent on our selection of certain assumptions used by actuaries in calculating such amounts.  Those assumptions include, among others, the weighted average discount rate, the weighted average expected rate of return on plan assets and the weighted average rate of compensation increase.  To the extent that these assumptions change, our future benefit obligation and net periodic pension expense may be positively or negatively impacted.

Results of Operations

We recognize revenue for product sales in accordance with the appropriate accounting guidance as described in our critical accounting policies.  We recognize revenue from customer service plans ratably over the term of each plan, which are typically between one and three years.  Our business is comprised of two operating segments for financial reporting purposes, products and services, which we provide for each of these markets.

Custom engineering services are often completed within 90 days from receipt of an order.  Revenues from these services are recognized upon completion and delivery of the product to the customer.  In certain instances, our customers require significant customization of both the software and hardware products.  In these situations, the services are considered essential to the functionality of the software and, therefore, the revenue from the arrangement, with the exception of maintenance, is recognized in conformity with accounting standards governing long term construction-type contracts and performance of construction-type and certain production-type contracts.  If we are able to determine reasonable estimates of the cost of the arrangement, we record the value of the entire arrangement (excluding maintenance) as the project progresses based on actual costs incurred compared to the total costs expected to be incurred through completion.  If we are unable to reasonably estimate the costs to complete the arrangement, all revenue is deferred until the contract is completed.

Cost of sales consists of the cost of the computer systems sold, including amortization of software development costs, depreciation, labor, material, overhead and third party product costs.  Cost of sales also includes the salaries, benefits and other costs of the maintenance, service and help desk personnel associated with product installation and support activities.

Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of the salaries, benefits, overhead, and travel expenses of employees responsible for acquiring new business and maintaining existing customer relationships, as well as marketing expenses related to trade publications, advertisements, trade shows and depreciation costs of demo equipment.

Research and development expenses are comprised of salaries, benefits, overhead, and travel expenses of employees involved in hardware and software product enhancement and development, cost of outside contractors engaged to perform quality assurance, hardware and software product enhancement and development.  Development costs are expensed as incurred.

General and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries, benefits, overhead, and travel expenses of management and administrative personnel, human resources, information systems, insurance, investor relations, accounting and fees for legal, board of director expenses, and other professional services.

Product Revenue.  Total product revenue for fiscal year 2014 was $47.9 million, an increase of $9.5 million, or 24.7%, from approximately $38.4 million in fiscal year 2013. The increase in product revenue resulted from the $6.3 million, or 30.2%, increase in video solutions product revenue in fiscal year 2014, compared to the prior year. We experienced year-over-year video solutions product revenue growth in all of our traditional geographic regions in fiscal year 2014 as follows:

· European video solutions revenue increased $3.3 million, or 192.4%, due to the timing of purchases from two multiple system operators in fiscal year 2014. One of the two customers was an existing customer that expanded its video system and storage capacity, and the second was a relatively new European video customer deploying video systems and storage for the first time.
· North American video solutions revenue increased $2.0 million, or 12.2%, in fiscal year 2014 primarily due to our year-over-year increase in the sales volume of our MDI reporting products.
· Asia-Pacific video solutions revenue increased $1.0 million, or 36.4%, in fiscal year 2014 due to existing customers’ expanding their existing video systems and storage capacity.

Fluctuation in video solutions product revenue is often due to the fact that we have a small number of customers making periodic large purchases that account for a significant percentage of revenue.  Our video solutions product revenue is also subject to customers’ capital spending cycles and may be impacted in the future by consolidation of the industry in which our customers operate.
The increase in product revenue also resulted from the $3.2 million, or 18.1%, increase in real-time product revenue for fiscal year 2014, compared to the prior year.  We experienced year-over-year real-time product revenue growth in all of our traditional geographic regions in fiscal year 2014 as follows:

· European real-time product revenue increased $1.6 million, or 162.9%, due to higher sales volume of our iHawk systems and SIMulation Workbench to European defense contractors and automotive customers.
· Asia-Pacific real-time product revenue increased $1.1 million, or 16.3%, in fiscal year 2014 due to higher sales volume of our iHawk systems to Japanese defense contractors.
· North American real-time product revenue increased $0.5 million, or 4.1%, in fiscal year 2014 due to higher sales volume of our iHawk systems to commercial technology companies and the U.S. government.

Revenue from defense contractors and the government tend to vary by quarter and year, and are dependent upon government initiatives and funding availability.

Service Revenue.  Total service revenue for fiscal year 2014 was $23.3 million, a decrease of approximately $1.7 million, or 7.0%, from  $25.0 million in fiscal year 2013.  Video solutions service revenue decreased by $1.9 million, or 12.0%, in fiscal year 2014, compared to the prior fiscal year.  This decrease was partly due to the completion of a MDI managed service contract that we completed during mid-year of our fiscal year 2014 and that was not renewed, resulting in a $0.7 million decrease in video solutions services revenue.  Also, during our fiscal year 2014, our video solutions maintenance revenue decreased by $1.0 million, compared to our fiscal year 2013.  During our fiscal year 2014, a customer that accounted for approximately 5.4% and 6.4% of our service revenues during the current and prior fiscal years, respectively, indicated that it was winding down its purchase of maintenance services from us.  Our loss of maintenance revenue from this customer accounted for $0.4 million of the decrease in maintenance service revenue in our fiscal year 2014, compared to our fiscal year 2013.  In the event that we are not able to replace this revenue with new customer revenue and other service revenues going forward, our service revenue will be impacted in the future.  The remaining decrease in maintenance revenue was primarily attributable to a large customer transitioning to a lower level of maintenance for which we charge a lower rate.

Offsetting the decrease in video solutions service revenue, real-time service revenue for fiscal year 2014 increased by $0.2 million, or 2.1%, compared to the prior fiscal year. This increase resulted from new maintenance contracts on new product sales increasing at a higher rate than our declining maintenance revenue from real-time legacy systems that customers are removing from service after many years of operation.

Product Gross Margin.  Product gross margin was $27.5 million in fiscal year 2014, an increase of approximately $5.5 million, or 24.7%, from $22.0 million in fiscal year 2013.  Product gross margin was 57.4% of product revenue for both fiscal years 2014 and 2013.   Product margins increased in terms of dollars due to the increase in revenue in fiscal year 2014, as compared to our fiscal year 2013.  Product margins remained consistent during fiscal year 2014, compared to the prior fiscal year, despite a change in the geographic mix of customers.  We typically experience lower product margins in our European market and we generated 15.9% of our product revenue from customers in Europe during fiscal year 2014, compared with 7.0% of our product revenue in the prior fiscal year.   However, our mix of product sales in North America was more heavily weighted to higher margin custom products in fiscal year 2014, relative to fiscal year 2013, offsetting our lower product margins in Europe.
 
Service Gross Margin.  Service gross margin was $12.9 million in fiscal year 2014, a decrease of approximately $1.9 million, or 12.7%, from $14.8 million in fiscal year 2013.  Gross margin on service revenue decreased to 55.5% of service revenue for fiscal year 2014 from 59.1% of service revenue for fiscal year 2013.   The decrease in service margin as a percentage of service revenue was primarily due to the $0.1 million, or 1.2% increase in service cost of sales in fiscal year 2014, compared to the prior fiscal year, while generating $1.9 million less service revenue.  The increase in service cost of sales resulted from additional personnel costs in fiscal year 2014 to support 1) our focus on generating additional professional services revenue, and 2) the change in our customer geography and mix requiring additional support.
Sales and Marketing. Sales and marketing expenses remained flat at $14.4 million for both fiscal years 2014 and 2013.  During our fiscal year 2014, we incurred an additional $0.2 million of commission expense from higher year over year revenue. We also incurred an additional $0.2 million in sales personnel costs in fiscal year 2014, compared to the prior fiscal year, due to the increase in our sales and sales support presence in Europe.  The offsetting decrease was due to a $0.3 million reduction in overseas expenses resulting from the declining value of foreign currencies on our overseas sales expenses and a $0.1 million decrease in corporate overseas travel expenses, partly due to having a greater local presence in Europe.
 
Research and Development.  Research and development expenses increased $1.4 million, or 12.2%, to $13.0 million in fiscal year 2014, from approximately $11.6 million in fiscal year 2013.  This increase was due to a $1.1 million increase in personnel costs in fiscal year 2014 resulting from an increase in development personnel to support product and strategic growth initiatives.  Additionally, our research and development expenses increased due to approximately a $0.2 million increase in incentive compensation, as additional development personnel became eligible for incentive compensation that is tied to achievement of certain performance objectives.

General and Administrative.  General and administrative expenses decreased approximately $0.5 million, or 5.9%, to $7.7 million in fiscal year 2014 from $8.2 million in fiscal year 2013.  This decrease was primarily due to a $0.3 million decrease in severance expense from a prior fiscal year reduction in force. This decrease was also due to a $0.2 million reduction in legal and accounting fees in fiscal year 2014, compared to the same period in the prior year.

Gain on Sale of Intellectual Property, Net. In the fourth quarter of our fiscal year 2013, we entered into an agreement to sell certain non-strategic patents and patent applications (collectively known as “intellectual property”) that Concurrent originally acquired in the purchase of Everstream, Inc. (“Everstream”).  We had not and did not expect to use the technology associated with this intellectual property as part of our ongoing or planned operations.  This intellectual property was originally valued at $0 upon our acquisition of Everstream, as there was no identifiable use for these patents at the time of purchase.  On June 28, 2013, we closed on this agreement with the purchaser and the purchaser transferred $2.8 million of cash to us as payment in full for this intellectual property.  As part of the execution of this agreement, we incurred approximately $0.4 million of transaction costs that we have netted against the $2.8 million of gross proceeds in our fiscal year 2013, as these expenses were incurred as a result of the sale, and would not have been incurred otherwise.

Other expense, net.  In fiscal year 2014, we incurred approximately $0.2 million of realized currency translation losses.  In fiscal year 2013, we incurred approximately $0.3 million of realized currency translation losses.  These losses resulted from the impact of the decreasing value of the euro and Japanese yen in both periods, relative to the U.S. dollar, on foreign currency transactions related to short-term intercompany accounts which are settled in the normal course of business by our European and Japanese subsidiaries for which the euro and yen are the respective functional currencies.

Provision for Income Taxes.  We recorded a $13.4 million income tax benefit in fiscal year 2014, compared to a $0.4 million income tax provision in fiscal year 2013.  We have been monitoring our recent trend of positive operating results in the U.S. and concluded during the fourth quarter of our fiscal year 2014 that it is now more likely than not that we will realize a portion of our U.S. deferred tax asset.  As a result, we realized a $13.7 million tax benefit related to the release of a portion of our valuation allowance that represents the amount of our U.S. deferred tax asset that we expect to realize in future years. This release is based upon our estimate of U.S. future taxable earnings.  We will continue to evaluate our assumptions each quarter regarding the need for a valuation allowance and will make appropriate adjustments as necessary. See Note 8 for more information.  In the recent past, our U.S. tax provision expense has been limited to the alternative minimum tax amount for federal tax purposes, which approximates 2% of earnings before income taxes, and state taxes in various jurisdictions.  However, as a result of our non-cash valuation allowance release during our fiscal year ended June 30, 2014, we expect our U.S. tax provision expense in future periods to be at a higher effective tax rate, which will reduce our net income (or loss) and earnings (or loss) per share, by a greater amount than it has in the past.  The higher effective tax rates and tax provisions will result in non-cash income tax expense in the future, as we will be able to utilize net operating losses to offset future cash taxes into the foreseeable future.

During the first half of our fiscal year 2014, a change in U.K. tax law relative to treatment of research and development expenses allowed us to release $0.2 million of valuation allowances against deferred tax assets that we believe are now realizable as a result of the current period tax law change.  We believe that in light of this law change, we will now generate sufficient taxable income to fully utilize our net deferred tax assets in the U.K.
We have net operating loss carryforwards available to offset taxable income in the U.S. and in many of the foreign locations in which we operate, but do not have net operating loss carryforwards available to offset taxable income in Japan.  Our deferred tax benefit recorded during our fiscal year 2014 was partially offset by $0.5 million of current tax provisions recorded primarily in the U.S. and Japan during our fiscal year 2014.  Tax provisions recorded in the U.S. and Japan during both fiscal year ends was attributable to alternative minimum tax recorded in the U.S. and income tax provision recorded by our subsidiary in Japan as a result of its pretax income recorded during the period.
 
Net Income (Loss).  Net income for fiscal year 2014 was $18.5 million, or $2.08 per basic and $2.04 per diluted share, compared to a net income for fiscal year 2013 of $4.2 million, or $0.49 per basic and $0.48 per diluted share.

Product Revenue.  Total product revenue for fiscal year 2013 was approximately $38.4 million, an increase of approximately $3.4 million, or 9.8%, from approximately $35.0 million in fiscal year 2012.  The increase in product revenue resulted primarily from the $2.5 million, or 17.1%, increase in real-time product revenue in fiscal year 2013, compared to the prior year. The increase in real-time product revenue resulted from our increasing volume of both iHawk and ImaGen system sales to defense contractors and the U.S. government during fiscal year 2013.  Real-time product orders from defense contractors and the government tend to vary by quarter and year, and are dependent upon government initiatives and funding availability.
Additionally, video solutions product revenue increased $0.9 million, or 4.4%, during fiscal year 2013, compared to the prior fiscal year.  This increase in video solutions product revenue was primarily due to resumption of spending by our two largest U.S. video customers, who made minimal purchases from us in fiscal year 2012, due to irregular spending patterns, coupled with the economic slowdown. This resumption of U.S. customer spending, coupled with increased video system and storage sales volume to customers in Canada that expanded and in some cases replaced existing video systems, resulted in an $8.1 million increase in North American video solutions revenue during fiscal year 2013, compared to the prior fiscal year.  The increase in North American video solutions revenue was mostly offset by a year over year decrease in video solutions revenue from our Asia-Pacific market.  Fiscal year 2013 video solutions product revenue declined by $7.3 million in our Asia-Pacific market primarily due to prior year video system and storage sales to our largest Japanese video solutions customer that did not recur in fiscal year 2013.  This Japanese video solutions customer represented 49.4% of total video solutions product revenue during the fiscal year 2012.  Fluctuation in video solutions product revenue is often due to the fact that we have a small number of customers making periodic large purchases that account for a significant percentage of our revenue.
 
Service Revenue.  Total service revenue for fiscal year 2013 was $25.0 million, a decrease of $0.3 million, or 1.1%, from approximately $25.3 million in fiscal year 2012.  Video solutions service revenue increased by $0.3 million in fiscal year 2013, compared to the prior fiscal year due to additional professional services revenue in fiscal year 2013.  Offsetting the increase in video solutions service revenue, real-time service revenue for fiscal year 2013 decreased by $0.6 million, compared to the prior fiscal year. We have experienced a decline in real-time service revenues over the past few years, as our legacy products have been removed from service and, to a lesser extent, from customers purchasing our new products that produce less service revenue.
 
Product Gross Margin.  Product gross margin was $22.0 million in fiscal year 2013, an increase of approximately $0.8 million, or 3.6%, from $21.3 million in fiscal year 2012.  Product margin increased in terms of dollars primarily due to higher product revenue during fiscal year 2013, compared to the prior fiscal year.  Product gross margin as a percentage of product revenue decreased to 57.4% for fiscal year 2013 from 60.8% in the prior fiscal year.   Product margins decreased as a percentage of revenue during fiscal year 2013, compared to the prior fiscal year, primarily due to the mix of customers and secondarily due to the mix of products sold during fiscal year 2013.

Service Gross Margin.  Service gross margin was $14.8 million in fiscal year 2013, an increase of approximately $1.3 million, or 9.9%, from $13.5 in fiscal year 2012.  Gross margin on service revenue increased to 59.1% of service revenue for fiscal year 2013 from 53.2% of service revenue for fiscal year 2012.  The increase in service margin as a percentage of service revenue was primarily due to a $1.6 million, or 13.7% decrease in service costs during fiscal year 2013.  Decreasing service costs resulted from the $1.0 million decrease in support personnel costs and $0.4 million severance charges resulting from our prior year actions to lower personnel costs to the level that we believe is appropriate for current business volumes.
 
Sales and Marketing. Sales and marketing expenses decreased $1.9 million, or 11.7%, to $14.4 million in fiscal year 2013 from $16.3 million in fiscal year 2012.  Sales and marketing expenses decreased $1.9 million due to lower personnel costs and $0.2 million due to lower severance charges during fiscal year 2013, compared to the prior fiscal year.  Salaries, benefits and severance charges decreased due to reductions in our international workforce and reorganization of our domestic workforce in the latter half of our prior fiscal year to create greater efficiency.  Additionally, we experienced a $0.3 million reduction in costs resulting from the impact of the declining Japanese yen on service costs incurred in Japan in fiscal year 2013, compared to fiscal year 2012.  Partially offsetting these decreasing expenses, we incurred an additional $0.3 million of commission expense in fiscal year 2013 due to higher revenue in the year, and an additional $0.2 million in incentive compensation in fiscal year 2013 due to higher revenue and profitability in the year.
 
Research and Development.  Research and development expenses decreased $1.6 million, or 11.8%, to $11.6 million in fiscal year 2013, from approximately $13.2 million in fiscal year 2012 due to a $1.6 million reduction in personnel costs and $0.2 million reduction in severance costs during fiscal year 2013 resulting from reductions in force during the latter half of our prior fiscal year, enabled by our recent changes to our research and development group.  Partially offsetting these decreasing expenses, we incurred an additional $0.3 million of incentive compensation expense in fiscal year 2013, compared to the prior fiscal year, due to higher revenue and profitability in the current year.
General and Administrative.  General and administrative expenses increased approximately $0.8 million, or 11.6%, to $8.2 million in fiscal year 2013 from $7.4 million in fiscal year 2012.  We incurred an additional $0.9 million of incentive compensation expense in fiscal year 2013, compared to fiscal year 2012, due to higher revenue and profitability in fiscal year 2013. Additionally, we incurred an additional $0.3 million in severance from a reduction in force.  Partially offsetting the increase in incentive compensation and severance, we incurred $0.4 million less in salaries, wages and benefits due to a year over year decrease in general and administrative personnel.

Gain on Sale of Intellectual Property, Net. In the fourth quarter of our fiscal year 2013, we entered into an agreement to sell certain non-strategic patents and patent applications (collectively known as “intellectual property”) that Concurrent originally acquired in the purchase of Everstream.  We had not and did not expect to use the technology associated with this intellectual property as part of our ongoing or planned operations.  This intellectual property was originally valued at $0 upon our acquisition of Everstream, as there was no identifiable use for these patents at the time of purchase.  On June 28, 2013, we closed on this agreement with the purchaser and the purchaser transferred $2.8 million of cash to us as payment in full for this intellectual property.  As part of the execution of this agreement, we incurred approximately $0.4 million of transaction costs that we have netted against the $2.8 million of gross proceeds, as these expenses were incurred as a result of the sale, and would not have been incurred otherwise.

Other expense, net.  In fiscal year 2013, we incurred $0.3 million of realized currency translation losses.  In fiscal year 2012, we incurred approximately $0.1 million of realized currency translation losses.  These losses resulted from the impact of the decrease of the Japanese yen in fiscal year 2013 and both the Japanese yen and euro in fiscal year 2012, relative to the U.S. dollar, on short-term intercompany accounts which are settled in U.S. dollars in the normal course of business by our subsidiaries for which the euro and Japanese yen are the functional currency.

Provision for Income Taxes.  We recorded a $0.4 million income tax provision in fiscal year 2013, compared to $0.7 million in fiscal year 2012.  We have net operating loss carryforwards available to offset taxable income in the U.S. and in many of the foreign locations in which we operate, but do not have net operating loss carryforwards available to offset taxable income in Japan.  Our tax provision recorded in fiscal year 2013 was attributable to alternative minimum tax and state taxes recorded in the U.S. and income tax provision recorded by our subsidiary in Japan as a result of its pretax income recorded during the year.  Our tax provision recorded during the prior fiscal year was primarily attributable to the income tax provision recorded by our subsidiary in Japan as a result of its pretax income recorded during the prior year. As of June 30, 2013, we had established a full valuation allowance for deferred tax assets attributable to our net operating loss carryforwards, as we determined that it was more likely than not that such deferred tax assets will not be realized as of that date.

Net Income (Loss).  Net income for fiscal year 2013 was $4.2 million, or $0.49 per basic and $0.48 per diluted share, compared to a net loss for fiscal year 2012 of ($2.9) million, or ($0.34) per basic and diluted share.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our liquidity is dependent upon many factors, including sales volume, product and service costs, operating results and the efficiency of asset use and turnover.  Our future liquidity will be affected by, among other things:

· our reliance on a small customer base, typically represented by a small number of large, concentrated orders (three customers accounted for 32% of our fiscal year 2014 revenue, and three customers accounted for 31% of our fiscal year 2013 revenue);
· our video solutions product revenue is subject to customers’ capital spending cycles and may be impacted in the future by consolidation of the industry in which our customers operate;
· the rate of growth or decline or change in market, if any, of video solutions market expansions and the pace that video service companies implement, upgrade or replace video solutions technology;
· the impact of the global economic conditions on our business and our customers, including European Union austerity measures;
· our ability to renew maintenance and support service agreements with customers and retain existing customers;
· the impact of U.S. government sequestration on our business and our customers;
· the rate of growth or decline, if any, of deployment of our real-time products;
· the actual versus anticipated decline in revenue from maintenance and product sales of real-time proprietary systems;
· our future access to capital;
· our ability to manage expenses consistent with the rate of growth or decline in our markets;
· ongoing cost control actions and expenses, including capital expenditures;
· the margins on our product and service sales;
· timing of product shipments, which typically occur during the last month of the quarter;
· the impact of delays of product acceptance from our customers;
· the percentage of sales derived from outside the U.S. where there are generally longer accounts receivable collection cycles;
· the number of countries in which we operate, which may require maintenance of minimum cash levels in each country and, in certain cases, may restrict the repatriation of cash, by requiring us to maintain levels of capital;
· the rate of growth or decline, if any, of sales to the government and government related entities; and
· the use of cash to pay quarterly and special dividends.

Uses and Sources of Cash

We generated $6.8 million of cash from operating activities during fiscal year 2014 compared to generating $4.9 million of cash during fiscal year 2013.  We used $1.6 million of cash during fiscal year 2012.  Operating cash flows in both fiscal years 2014 and 2013 were primarily generated by operating profits during the period.  Operating cash outflow in fiscal year 2012 was primarily attributable to the timing of payment of our outstanding trade payables.

In our fiscal year 2013, we entered into an agreement to sell certain non-strategic patents and patent applications that we originally acquired in the purchase of Everstream.  We had not and did not expect to use the technology associated with this intellectual property as part of our ongoing or planned operations.  This intellectual property was originally valued at $0 upon our acquisition of Everstream.  On June 28, 2013, we closed on this agreement with the purchaser and the purchaser transferred $2.8 million of cash to us as payment in full for this intellectual property.  As part of the execution of this agreement, we incurred approximately $0.4 million of commissions and legal fees that we have netted against the gross proceeds, as these expenses were incurred as a result of the sale, and would not have been incurred otherwise.

We invested $1.9 million in property, plant and equipment during fiscal year 2014 compared to $1.4 million and $2.0 million in fiscal years 2013 and 2012, respectively.  Capital additions during each of these periods were primarily related to: 1) development and test equipment for our development group, 2) demonstration systems used by our sales and marketing group, and 3) facilities improvements.

We paid four quarterly cash dividends, each for $0.12 per share, during our fiscal year 2014.  During our fiscal year 2013, we paid four $0.06 per share cash dividends, one $0.12 per share cash dividend, and a $0.50 per share special dividend.  We intend to pay a regular quarterly cash dividend on our common shares subject to, among other things, our results of operations, cash balances, future cash requirements, financial condition, statutory requirements of Delaware law, and other factors that the Board of Directors may deem relevant.  We believe that a portion of our dividends may be treated as a return of capital to stockholders, rather than dividend income, as we believe dividend payments may exceed our cumulative earnings and profits.

We paid $0.1 million for the repurchase and retirement of shares to settle minimum tax withholdings for employees whose restricted stock awards released during our fiscal year 2014.  The tax settlement method was limited to a short period of time and we do not anticipate any additional repurchases of stock for this purpose.
Our credit line with Silicon Valley Bank expired on December 31, 2013.  We did not draw against the Revolver in the past three years and therefore allowed it to expire. We are currently evaluating whether or not to enter into a new credit arrangement, but based upon our existing cash balances, historical cash usage, and anticipated operating cash flow in the near term, we believe that existing cash balances will be sufficient to meet our anticipated working capital, capital expenditure requirements and any dividend payments for at least the next twelve months.  We are no longer subject to any covenants.

At June 30, 2014, we had working capital (current assets less current liabilities) of $29.9 million, including cash and cash equivalents of approximately $28.1 million, and had no material commitments for capital expenditures.  At June 30, 2013, we had working capital of $27.7 million, including cash and cash equivalents of approximately $27.9 million.  At June 30, 2012, we had working capital of $29.4 million, including cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments of approximately $29.6 million.  As of June 30, 2014, approximately $2.7 million, or 9.5% of our cash is in foreign accounts and there is no expectation that any foreign cash would need to be transferred from these foreign accounts to cover operations in the next 12 months.  Based upon our existing cash balances and short-term investments, historical cash usage, and anticipated operating cash flow in the current fiscal year, we believe that existing cash balances will be sufficient to meet our anticipated working capital, dividend payments and capital expenditure requirements for at least the next 12 months.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We enter into agreements in the ordinary course of business with customers, resellers, distributors, integrators and suppliers that often require us to defend and/or indemnify the other party against intellectual property infringement claims brought by a third party with respect to our products.  We evaluate estimated losses for such indemnifications under ASC 460-20 and ASC 460-10-25.  We consider factors such as the degree of probability of an unfavorable outcome and the ability to make a reasonable estimate of the amount of loss. To date, we have not encountered material costs as a result of such obligations and have not accrued any material liabilities related to such indemnifications in our financial statements.  See footnote 17 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the additional disclosures regarding indemnification.

Recent Accounting Guidance

Recently Adopted Accounting Guidance

In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-2, Comprehensive Income: Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income, providing on disclosure requirements for items reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”).  This new guidance requires entities to present (either on the face of the income statement or in the notes) the effects on the line items of the income statement for amounts reclassified out of AOCI. The new guidance was effective for us beginning July 1, 2013. Other than requiring additional disclosures, this guidance did not have a material impact on our financial statements.
 
Recent Accounting Guidance Not Yet Adopted
 
In March 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-05, Foreign Currency Matters (Topic 830) which provides guidance on a parent’s accounting for the cumulative translation adjustment upon derecognition of a subsidiary or group of assets within a foreign entity. This new guidance requires that the parent release any related cumulative translation adjustment into net income only if the sale or transfer results in the complete or substantially complete liquidation of the foreign entity in which the subsidiary or group of assets had resided. The new guidance was effective for us beginning July 1, 2014 and will not have a material impact on our financial statements.
In July 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-11, Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists. This amendment requires entities to present an unrecognized tax benefit, or a portion of an unrecognized tax benefit, as a reduction to a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss carryforward or a similar tax loss or a tax credit carryforward, unless certain conditions exist. This guidance is effective prospectively for annual reporting periods (and the interim periods within) beginning after December 15, 2013. Early adoption and retrospective application are permitted. The new guidance was effective for us beginning July 1, 2014 and will not have a material impact on our financial statements.
 
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, as part of its ongoing efforts to assist in the convergence of U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards, the FASB issued a new standard related to revenue recognition. Under the new standard, recognition of revenue occurs when a customer obtains control of promised goods or services in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. In addition, the standard requires disclosure of the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. The new standard will be effective for us beginning July 1, 2017 and early adoption is not permitted. We anticipate this standard may have a material impact, and we are currently evaluating the impact this standard will have on our consolidated financial statements.

In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-12, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Accounting for Share-Based Payments When the Terms of an Award Provide that a Performance Target Could Be Achieved After the Requisite Service Period. This update affects reporting entities that grant their employees share-based payments in which the terms of the award stipulate that a performance target that affects vesting could be achieved after the requisite service period.  The new standard requires that a performance target that affects vesting and that could be achieved after the requisite service period be treated as a performance condition.  The new standard will be effective for us for us beginning July 1, 2015, and early adoption is permitted.  We expect adoption will not have a material impact on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Controls and Procedures

We conducted an evaluation as of June 30, 2014, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures are effective as of the end of the period covered by this report.
 
Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
 
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting.  Pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC, internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, our principal executive and principal financial officers to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and includes those policies and procedures that:
· pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of Concurrent;
· provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of Concurrent are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of Concurrent; and
· provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of Concurrent’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
 
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on criteria established in “Internal Control—Integrated Framework” issued in 1992 by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Our management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of June 30, 2014.
 
This Annual Report on Form 10-K does not include an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our independent registered public accounting firm in accordance with recent amendments to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 pursuant to Section 989G of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act that permit us to provide only management’s report in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Remediation of Previously Reported Material Weakness
 
A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. For the year ended June 30, 2013, it was concluded that a material weakness existed in our internal control over financial reporting related to the preparation and review of our consolidated statements of cash flows.  Specifically, we initially had an error related to our determination of the cash flow classification of the proceeds from the one-time intellectual property sale that occurred in June 2013.  As the error was corrected prior to any public disclosure or filing of our results for the year ended June 30, 2013, there was no misstatement in our financial statements that were included in our previously filed Form 10-K.  In response to the material weakness in internal controls described above, during the twelve months ended June 30, 2014, we began to include as part of our financial reporting review process, a more thorough examination of the financial reporting impact of new and unusual transactions or accounting issues on all of our financial statements, as well as implementing additional review procedures over our statements of cash flows.  Based on the measures taken and implemented, management has tested the newly implemented control activities and found them to be effective and has concluded that the material weakness described above has been remediated as of June 30, 2014.

Changes in Internal Control

There were no changes to our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2014 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

Item 8
Consolidated Financial Statements and Supplementary Data
Year Ended June 30, 2014
REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
 
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
Concurrent Computer Corporation:
 
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Concurrent Computer Corporation and subsidiaries (the "Company") as of June 30, 2014 and 2013, and the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income (loss), stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended June 30, 2014.  Our audits also included the financial statement schedule listed in the Index at Item 15 (a)(2).  These financial statements and financial statement schedule are the responsibility of the Company's management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the financial statements and financial statement schedule based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement.  The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting.  Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting.  Accordingly, we express no such opinion.  An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.  We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, such consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Concurrent Computer Corporation and subsidiaries as of June 30, 2014 and 2013, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended June 30, 2014, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.  Also, in our opinion, such financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic consolidated financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly in all material respects the information set forth therein.

CONCURRENT COMPUTER CORPORATION

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
1. Overview of the Business

We provide software, hardware and professional services for the video solutions market and the high-performance, real-time market.  Our business is comprised of two segments for financial reporting purposes, products and services, which we provide for each of these markets.

Our video solutions consist of software, hardware, and services for intelligently streaming video and collecting and analyzing media data.  Our video solutions and services are deployed by video service providers for distribution of video to consumers and collection of media data intelligence to manage their video business and operations.

Our real-time products consist of real-time Linux operating system versions, development tools and other system software combined, in most cases, with computer platforms and services.  These products are sold to a wide variety of companies seeking high-performance, real-time computer solutions in the military, aerospace, financial and automotive markets around the world.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Concurrent and all wholly-owned domestic and foreign subsidiaries.  All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

Smaller Reporting Company

We meet the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (“SEC’s”) definition of a “Smaller Reporting Company,”  and therefore qualify for the SEC’s reduced disclosure requirements for smaller reporting companies.

Foreign Currency

The functional currency of all of our foreign subsidiaries is the applicable local currency.  The translation of the applicable foreign currencies into U.S. dollars is performed for balance sheet accounts using current exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date and for revenue and expense accounts using average rates of exchange prevailing during the fiscal year.  Adjustments resulting from the translation of foreign currency financial statements are accumulated in a separate component of stockholders’ equity.  Gains or losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are included in the Consolidated Statements of Operations, except for those relating to intercompany transactions of a long-term investment nature, which are accumulated in a separate component of stockholders’ equity.

Losses on foreign currency transactions of $257,000, $348,000, and $116,000 for the years ended June 30, 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively, are included in “Other expense, net” in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash balances and short-term investments with original maturities of 90 days or less at the date of purchase are considered cash equivalents.  Cash equivalents are stated at cost plus accrued interest, which approximates market value, and represent cash and cash invested in money market funds.

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market, with cost determined on a first-in, first-out basis.  We reduce the recorded value of excess and obsolete inventory to its market value based upon historical and anticipated usage.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at acquired cost less accumulated depreciation.  Depreciation is provided on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of assets ranging from one to five years.  Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the useful lives of the improvements or the terms of the related lease.  Gains and losses resulting from the disposition of property, plant and equipment are included in operations.  Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are charged to operations as incurred and expenditures for major renewals and betterments are capitalized.

Revenue Recognition Policy

We generate revenue from the sale of products and services. We commence revenue recognition when all of the following conditions are met:

· persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists,
· the system has been delivered or the services have been performed,
· the fee is fixed or determinable, and
· collectability of the fee is probable.

Our standard multiple-element contractual arrangements with our customers generally include the delivery of systems with multiple components of hardware and software, certain professional services that typically involve installation and consulting, and ongoing systems maintenance.  Product revenue is generally recognized when the product is delivered.  Professional services that are of a consultative nature may take place before, or after, delivery of the system, and installation services typically occur within 90 days after delivery of the system.  Professional services revenue is typically recognized as the services are performed.  Initial maintenance begins after delivery of the system and typically is provided for one to three years after delivery. Maintenance revenue is recognized ratably over the maintenance period. Our product sales are predominantly system sales whereby software and hardware function together to deliver the essential functionality of the combined product.  Upon our adoption of ASU 2009-14 on July 1, 2010, sales of these systems were determined to typically be outside of the scope of the software revenue guidance in Topic 985 (previously included in SOP 97-2) and are accounted for under ASU 2009-13.

Our sales model for media data intelligence (“MDI”) products includes the option for customers to purchase a perpetual license, a term license, or software as a service. Customers also have the option to purchase maintenance or managed services with their license.  Revenue from these sales generally is recognized over the term of the various customer arrangements.  Professional services attributable to implementation of our MDI products or managed services are essential to the customers’ use of these products and services.  We defer commencement of revenue recognition for the entire arrangement until we have delivered the essential professional services or have made a determination that the remaining professional services are no longer essential to the customer.  We recognize revenue for managed services and software-as-a-service arrangements once we commence providing the managed or software services and recognize the service revenue ratably over the term of the various customer contracts.  In circumstances whereby we sell a term or perpetual license and maintenance or managed services, we commence revenue recognition after both the software and service are made available to the customer and recognize the revenue from the entire arrangement ratably over the longer of the term license or service period, because we do not have vendor specific objective evidence (“VSOE”) for our term licenses, maintenance, or managed services for MDI solutions.

We evaluate each element in a multiple-element arrangement to determine whether it represents a separate unit of accounting.  An element constitutes a separate unit of accounting when the delivered item has standalone value and delivery of the undelivered element is probable and within our control.  Our various systems have standalone value because we have either routinely sold them on a standalone basis or we believe that our customers could resell the delivered system on a standalone basis.  Professional services have standalone value because we have routinely sold them on a standalone basis, there are similar third party vendors that routinely provide similar professional services, and certain customers perform the installation themselves.  Our maintenance has standalone value because we have routinely sold maintenance separately.

As a result of the adoption of ASU 2009-13, we allocate revenue to each element in an arrangement based on a selling price hierarchy. The selling price for a deliverable is based on its VSOE, if available, third party evidence (“TPE”), if VSOE is not available, or estimated selling price (“ESP”), if neither VSOE nor TPE is available. We have typically been able to establish VSOE of fair value for our maintenance and services. We determine VSOE of fair value for professional services and maintenance by examining the population of selling prices for the same or similar services when sold separately, and determining that the pricing population for each VSOE classification is within a very narrow range of the median selling price.  For each element, we evaluate at least annually whether or not we have maintained VSOE of fair value based on our review of the actual selling price of each element over the previous 12 month period.
CONCURRENT COMPUTER CORPORATION

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - continued
 
Our product deliverables are typically complete systems comprised of numerous hardware and software components that operate together to provide essential functionality, and we are typically unable to establish VSOE or TPE of fair value for our products.  Due to the custom nature of our products, we must determine ESP at the individual component level whereby our ESP for the total system is determined based on the sum of the individual components.  ESP for components of our real-time products is typically based upon list price, which is representative of our actual selling price.  ESP for components of our video solutions products is based upon our most frequent selling price (“mode”) of standalone and bundled sales, based upon a 12 month historical analysis.  If a mode selling price is not available, then ESP will be the median selling price of all such component sales based upon a 12 month historical analysis, unless facts and circumstances indicate that another selling price, other than the mode or median selling price, is more representative of our ESP.  Our methodology for determining ESP requires judgment, and any changes to pricing practices, the costs incurred to integrate products, the nature of our relationships with our customers, and market trends could cause variability in our ESP or cause us to re-evaluate our methodology for determining ESP.  We update our analysis of mode and median selling price at least annually, unless facts and circumstances indicate that more frequent analysis is required.

Occasionally, we sell software under multiple element arrangements that do not include hardware. Under these software arrangements, we allocate revenue to the various elements based on VSOE of fair value.  Our VSOE of fair value is determined based on the price charged when the same element is sold separately.  If VSOE of fair value does not exist for all elements in a multiple element arrangement, but does exist for undelivered elements, we recognize revenue using the residual method.  Under the residual method, the fair value of the undelivered elements is deferred and the remaining portion of the arrangement is recognized as revenue.  Where fair value of undelivered elements has not been established, the total arrangement is recognized over the period during which the services are performed.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

The allowance for doubtful accounts receivable is based on an analysis of our historical charge-off ratio, our aging of accounts receivable and our assessment of the collectability of our receivables.  If there is a deterioration of one of our major customer’s credit worthiness or actual account defaults are higher than our historical trends, our reserve estimates could be adversely impacted.

Deferred Revenue

Deferred revenue consists of billings for maintenance contracts and for products that are pending completion of the revenue recognition process.  Maintenance revenue, whether bundled with the product or priced separately, is recognized ratably over the maintenance period.  For contracts extending beyond one year, deferred revenue related to the contract period extending beyond 12 months is classified among long-term liabilities.

Defined Benefit Pension Plan

We maintain defined benefit pension plans (the “Pension Plan”) for a number of former employees (“participants”) of our German subsidiary.  In 1998 the pension plan was closed to new employees and no existing employees are eligible to participate, as all eligible participants are no longer employed by Concurrent.  The Pension Plan provides benefits to be paid to all participants at retirement based primarily on years of service with Concurrent and compensation rates in effect near retirement. Our policy is to fund benefits attributed to participants’ services to date as well as service expected to be earned in the future.  The determination of our Pension Plan benefit obligation and expense is dependent on our selection of certain assumptions used by actuaries in calculating such amounts.  Those assumptions include, among others, the weighted average discount rate, the weighted average expected rate of return on plan assets and the weighted average rate of compensation increase.  To the extent that these assumptions change, our future benefit obligation and net periodic pension expense may be positively or negatively impacted.

Capitalized Software

We account for software development costs in accordance with ASC 985-20.  Under ASC 985-20, the costs associated with software development are required to be capitalized after technological feasibility has been established.  We cease capitalization upon the achievement of customer availability.  Costs incurred by us between technological feasibility and the point at which the products are ready for market are generally insignificant and as a result we had minimal software development costs capitalized at June 30, 2014 and 2013.

Research and Development

Research and development expenditures are expensed as incurred.

Basic and Diluted Net (Loss) Income per Share

Basic net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each year.  Diluted net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares including dilutive common share equivalents.  Under the treasury stock method, incremental shares representing the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the dilutive potential common shares had been issued are included in the computation.  Common share equivalents of 111,000, 232,000, and 502,000 for the years ended June 30, 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively, were excluded from the calculation as their effect was anti-dilutive.

Valuation of Long-Lived Assets

We evaluate the recoverability of long-lived assets, other than indefinite lived intangible assets, for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.  Conditions that would necessitate an impairment assessment include a significant decline in the observable market value of an asset, a significant change in the extent or manner in which an asset is used, or a significant adverse change that would indicate that the carrying amount of an asset or group of assets is not recoverable.  For long-lived assets to be held and used, we recognize an impairment loss only if its carrying amount is not recoverable through its undiscounted cash flows and measure the impairment loss based on the difference between the carrying amount and fair value based on discounted cash flows.  As a result of these evaluations, we have not recorded any impairment losses related to long-lived assets, for any of the years ending June 30, 2014, 2013 and 2012.

Fair Value Measurements

The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) requires certain disclosures around fair value and establishes a fair value hierarchy for valuation inputs.  The hierarchy prioritizes the inputs into three levels based on the extent to which inputs used in measuring fair value are observable in the market.  Each fair value measurement is reported in one of the three levels which are determined by the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.  These levels are:
 
Level 1
Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
 
Level 2
Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are either directly or indirectly observable; and
 
Level 3
Assets or liabilities for which fair value is based on valuation models with significant unobservable pricing inputs and which result in the use of management estimates.
 
Our financial assets that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2014 are as follows (in thousands):

Income Taxes

Concurrent and its domestic subsidiaries file a consolidated federal income tax return.  All foreign subsidiaries file individual or consolidated tax returns pursuant to local tax laws.  We follow the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes.  Under the asset and liability method, a deferred tax asset or liability is recognized for temporary differences between financial reporting and income tax basis of assets and liabilities, tax credit carryforwards and operating loss carryforwards.  A valuation allowance is established to reduce deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not that such deferred tax assets will not be realized.
 
Share-Based Compensation

We account for share-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718-10, which requires the recognition of the fair value of stock compensation in the Statement of Operations.  We recognize stock compensation expense over the requisite service period of the individual grantees, which generally equals the vesting period.  All of our stock compensation is accounted for as equity instruments.
CONCURRENT COMPUTER CORPORATION

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - continued
 
Refer to Note 11 for assumptions used in calculation of fair value.  Total compensation cost of restricted stock awards issued, but not yet vested as of June 30, 2014 is $668,762, which is expected to be recognized over the weighted average period of 1.5 years.

Comprehensive Income (Loss)

Comprehensive income (loss) is a more inclusive financial reporting methodology that includes disclosure of certain financial information that historically has not been recognized in the calculation of net income (loss).  Comprehensive income (loss) is defined as a change in equity during the financial reporting period of a business enterprise resulting from non-owner sources.  Components of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) are disclosed in the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss).

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“U.S. GAAP”) 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 period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

3. Recent Accounting Guidance

Recently Adopted Accounting Guidance

In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-2, Comprehensive Income: Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income, providing on disclosure requirements for items reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”).  This new guidance requires entities to present (either on the face of the income statement or in the notes) the effects on the line items of the income statement for amounts reclassified out of AOCI. The new guidance was effective for us beginning July 1, 2013. Other than requiring additional disclosures, this guidance did not have a material impact on our financial statements.

Recent Accounting Guidance Not Yet Adopted
 
In March 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-05, Foreign Currency Matters (Topic 830) which provides guidance on a parent’s accounting for the cumulative translation adjustment upon derecognition of a subsidiary or group of assets within a foreign entity. This new guidance requires that the parent release any related cumulative translation adjustment into net income only if the sale or transfer results in the complete or substantially complete liquidation of the foreign entity in which the subsidiary or group of assets had resided. The new guidance was effective for us beginning July 1, 2014 and will not have a material impact on our financial statements.
 
In July 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-11, Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists. This amendment requires entities to present an unrecognized tax benefit, or a portion of an unrecognized tax benefit, as a reduction to a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss carryforward or a similar tax loss or a tax credit carryforward, unless certain conditions exist. This guidance is effective prospectively for annual reporting periods (and the interim periods within) beginning after December 15, 2013. Early adoption and retrospective application are permitted. The new guidance was effective for us beginning July 1, 2014 and will not have a material impact on our financial statements.
CONCURRENT COMPUTER CORPORATION

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - continued
 
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, as part of its ongoing efforts to assist in the convergence of U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards, the FASB issued a new standard related to revenue recognition. Under the new standard, recognition of revenue occurs when a customer obtains control of promised goods or services in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. In addition, the standard requires disclosure of the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. The new standard will be effective for us beginning July 1, 2017 and early adoption is not permitted. We anticipate this standard may have a material impact, and we are currently evaluating the impact this standard will have on our consolidated financial statements.

In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-12, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Accounting for Share-Based Payments When the Terms of an Award Provide that a Performance Target Could Be Achieved After the Requisite Service Period. This update affects reporting entities that grant their employees share-based payments in which the terms of the award stipulate that a performance target that affects vesting could be achieved after the requisite service period.  The new standard requires that a performance target that affects vesting and that could be achieved after the requisite service period be treated as a performance condition.  The new standard will be effective for us for us beginning July 1, 2015, and early adoption is permitted.  We expect adoption will not have a material impact on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

The net deferred income tax asset of $14,689,000 is comprised of $1,458,000 of current deferred tax assets, net, and $13,231,000 of non-current deferred tax assets, net.  As of June 30, 2014, we have U.S. federal net operating loss carryforwards (NOLs) of approximately $94,323,000 for income tax purposes, of which none expire in fiscal year 2014, and the remainder expires at various dates through fiscal year 2032.  We completed an evaluation of the potential effect of Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code on our ability to utilize these NOLs.  The study concluded that we have not had an ownership change in the past three years, and previous studies confirmed that there have been no ownership changes since July 22, 1993.  Therefore, the U.S. federal NOLs will not be subject to limitation under Section 382.

As of June 30, 2014, we have state NOLs of approximately $54,339,000 and foreign NOLs of approximately $32,661,000.  The state NOLs expire between fiscal year 2014 and fiscal year 2032.  The foreign NOLs expire according to the rules of each country, and with the exception of Spain, all have an indefinite carryforward period.  Spanish NOLs will expire between fiscal year 2015 through fiscal year 2023.

We have evaluated our ability to generate future taxable income in all jurisdictions that would allow it to realize the benefit associated with these NOLs.  Based on our best estimate of future taxable income, we do not expect to fully realize the benefit of these NOLs. We expect a significant amount of the U.S. losses to expire without utilization, resulting in a valuation allowance in the U.S. on this portion of the deferred tax assets.  We expect the U.K. losses to be fully realized based on a fiscal year 2014 tax law change regarding the treatment of research and development benefits, so we have fully released the valuation allowance placed on these losses in prior periods.  We do not expect to realize the benefit of our NOLs in other international jurisdictions due to cumulative accounting losses, our long history of taxable losses and our uncertainty with respect to generating future taxable income in the near term given our recently completed projections and other inherent uncertainties in our business.  We continue to maintain a full valuation allowance on losses in these other international jurisdictions.

We also have an alternative minimum tax credit for federal purposes of $377,000, which has an indefinite life, and a research and development credit carryforward for federal purposes of $140,000, which has a carryforward period of 20 years and will expire in fiscal years 2025 and 2026.  We do not expect to be able to realize the benefit of the research and development credit carryforward before its expiration, and we maintain a full valuation allowance on this item.

Of the $94,323,000 of aforementioned U.S. federal tax NOLs, $11,000,000 represents acquired NOLs from the Everstream acquisition.  Additionally, we acquired the aforementioned $140,000 in research and development credits in the transaction.  The benefits associated with these Everstream losses and tax credits will likely be limited under Sections 382 and 383 of the Internal Revenue Code as of the date of acquisition.  We have fully offset the deferred tax assets related to these losses and credits with a valuation allowance.  However as the alternative minimum tax credit has an indefinite life, we have released the valuation allowance on this item.

Deferred income taxes have not been provided for undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries because of our intent to reinvest them indefinitely in active foreign operations.  Because of the availability of significant U.S. net operating losses, it is not practicable to determine the U.S. income tax liability that would be payable if such earnings were not reinvested indefinitely.  Deferred taxes are provided for the earnings of foreign subsidiaries when it becomes evident that we do not plan to permanently reinvest the earnings into active foreign operations.  As of June 30, 2014, $2,670,000 of the $28,074,000 (on the consolidated balance sheet) of cash and cash equivalents was held by foreign subsidiaries.  As of June 30, 2014, we have both the intent and the ability to permanently reinvest our foreign earnings in our foreign subsidiaries.

The valuation allowances for deferred tax assets as of June 30, 2014 and 2013 were approximately $33,851,000 and $49,119,000, respectively.  The change in the valuation allowance for the year ended June 30, 2014 was a decrease of approximately $15,268,000.  This change was primarily due to a $13,913,000 decrease related to the release of our valuation allowances in both the U.S. and the U.K.  In the U.S. we concluded during our fourth quarter of fiscal year 2014 that it is more likely than not that we will utilize a portion of our domestic deferred tax assets, and released $13,699,000 of our U.S. valuation allowance based on our best estimate of the realizability of those assets.  In the U.K., we released $214,000 of valuation allowance based on a change in U.K. tax law related to research and development benefits that will allow us to fully utilize our deferred tax inventory in the U.K.  This change also resulted from a $1,766,000 decrease due to the use of deferred tax assets during fiscal year 2014, and a $201,000 decrease due to miscellaneous true-ups of prior year deferred tax amounts.  Additionally, there was a $590,000 increase due to exchange rate changes and the effect of unrealized gains/losses, the effect of which was a component of equity, and a $22,000 increase due to a change in foreign tax rates.

Deferred Tax Assets and Related Valuation Allowances

Realization of our deferred tax assets is dependent primarily on the generation of future taxable income. In considering the need for a valuation allowance we consider our historical and future projected operations along with other positive and negative evidence in assessing if sufficient future taxable income will be generated to use the existing deferred tax assets.  The following summarizes our conclusions on the need for a valuation allowance in each jurisdiction as of June 30, 2014:

U.S.:  As of June 30, 2014, we have realized a three-year cumulative accounting profit in the U.S. adjusted for permanent differences and other non-recurring events, including the 2013 gain on the sale of certain patents, and adjusting for the loss of a long time customer. This three-year period is the standard period by which we initially assess each jurisdiction and is strong objective evidence, whether positive or negative, to be considered in the release or recording of any valuation allowance.  In determining whether or not to release valuation allowance for the U.S. jurisdiction we considered positive evidence including the three year cumulative accounting profit, current projections of future profitability, lack of any significant claims or loss contingencies, and positive cash from operations.  Negative evidence considered includes significant volatility in our operations, history of NOLs expiring unused, concentration of our customer base including the risk that global consolidation in the cable industry, and the loss of a long-time customer in the current year.  Based on our analysis of both positive and negative evidence, we have concluded during fourth quarter of our fiscal year 2014 that it is now more likely than not that we will realize a portion of our U.S. deferred tax asset as the positive objective evidence, including the three-year cumulative accounting gain, outweighed the negative subjective evidence of customer concentration and volatility in our business.  As a result we realized a $13,699,000 tax benefit related to the release of a portion of our valuation allowance against federal and state net operating losses as well as on the aforementioned deferred tax asset related to AMT credit as it has an indefinite life. We did not release the valuation allowance against our research and development credit as it is expected to expire in future years in which we already expect an expiration of federal NOLs.  The amount of valuation allowance released against our net deferred tax assets is based upon our best estimate of future earnings including consideration of a combination of a past historical operating income and future projected income scheduled against the future expected expiration of federal and state NOLs.  We did not perform a full release of valuation allowance as there are still significant NOLs that will expire unused based upon our expectations of future earnings. Before consideration of future earnings, there are $25,570,000 and $18,954,000 of federal NOLs scheduled to expire in 2020 and 2021 respectively in addition to other years through 2032 mentioned above.  Results materially different from our current expectations on an ongoing basis, or significant events such as the acquisition or loss of a major customer, or the change in buying habits of our customers, could result in future additional change in the valuation allowance. We will continue to evaluate our assumptions each quarter regarding the need for a valuation allowance and will make appropriate adjustments as necessary.

In the recent past, our U.S. tax provision expense has been limited to the alternative minimum tax amount for federal tax purposes, which approximates 2% of earnings before income taxes, and state taxes in various jurisdictions.  However, as a result of our non-cash valuation allowance release during our fiscal year ended June 30, 2014, we expect our U.S. tax provision expense in future periods to be at a higher effective tax rate, which will reduce our net income (or loss) and earnings (or loss) per share, by a greater amount than it has in the past.  The higher effective tax rates and tax provisions will result in non-cash income tax expense in the future, as we will be able to utilize net operating losses to offset future cash taxes into the foreseeable future.

U.K. - During our fiscal year 2014, a change in U.K. tax law relative to treatment of research and development expenses allowed us to release $214,000 of valuation allowances against deferred tax assets that we believe are now realizable as a result of the current period tax law change.  We believe that in light of this law change, we will now generate sufficient taxable income to fully utilize our net deferred tax assets in the U.K.

Japan – Our subsidiary in Japan has a long history of profitable operations, and we continue to project profitability in Japan for the foreseeable future.  Therefore, we continue to believe that we will fully realize the net deferred tax assets in Japan, and no valuation allowance is needed.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - continued
 
Other Foreign Jurisdictions - We also evaluated the need for a continued full valuation allowance against our foreign deferred tax assets in other jurisdictions.  We concluded that a full valuation allowance against our deferred tax assets for other foreign jurisdictions was warranted due to, among other reasons, (i) the realized cumulative accounting losses, (ii) our long history of taxable losses and (iii) our uncertainty with respect to generating future taxable income in the near term given our recently completed projections and other inherent uncertainties in our business.

Each quarter, we assess the total weight of positive and negative evidence and evaluate whether release of all or any portion of the valuation allowance is appropriate. Should we come to the conclusion that a release of our valuation allowances is required, or that additional valuation allowance is required, there could be a significant increase or decrease in net income and earnings per share in the period of release, or the additional valuation allowance, due to the impact on the tax rate.

The amount of gross tax effected unrecognized tax benefits as of June 30, 2014 was approximately $297,000 of which approximately $248,000, if recognized, would affect the effective tax rate.  During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014, we recognized approximately $21,000 of interest and no penalties.  We had approximately $236,000 and $215,000 of accrued interest at June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.  We had approximately $88,000 of accrued penalties as of both June 30, 2014 and 2013.  We recognize potential interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as a component of income tax expense.  We believe that the amount of uncertain tax positions will not change by a significant amount within the next 12 months.

9. Pensions and Other Postretirement Benefits

We maintain a retirement savings plan (the “Plan”), available to U.S. employees, that qualifies as a defined contribution plan under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code.  From July 1, 2012 through August 20, 2013, the Company was matching 25% of the first 5% of the participants’ compensation.   Effective August 21, 2013, the Company matches 50% of the first 5% of the participants’ compensation.  For fiscal years 2014, 2013 and 2012, we made matching contributions of $388,000, $183,000 and $0, respectively.

We also maintain a defined contribution plan (the “Stakeholder Plan”) for our U.K. based employees.  The Stakeholder Plan provides for discretionary matching contributions of between 4% and 7% of the employee’s salary.  For fiscal years 2014, 2013 and 2012, we made total contributions to the Stakeholder Plan of $70,000, $60,000 and $63,000, respectively.

As of June 30, 2014, we maintained defined benefit pension plans covering former employees in Germany.  The measurement date used to determine fiscal years’ 2014 and 2013 benefit information for the plans was June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.  Our German defined benefit plans have been closed to new employees since 1998 and no employees have been added to the plan since this time.

Pension assets utilizing Level 1 inputs include fair values of equity investments and debt securities, and related dividends, which were determined by closing prices for those securities traded actively on national stock exchanges.   All cash equivalents are carried at cost, which approximates fair value.  Level 2 assets include fair values of equity investments and debt securities with limited trading activity and related dividends that were determined by closing prices for those securities traded on national stock exchanges and cash surrender life insurance contracts that are valued based on contractually stated settlement value.  In estimating the expected return on plan assets, we consider past performance and future expectations for the fund.  Plan assets are heavily weighted toward equity investments that yield consistent, dependable dividends.

Our investment strategy with respect to pension assets is to invest the assets in accordance with applicable laws and regulations.  The long-term primary objectives for our pension assets are to:  (1) provide for a reasonable amount of long-term growth of capital, with prudent exposure to risk and protect the assets from erosion of purchasing power; (2) provide investment results that meet or exceed the plans’ actuarially assumed long-term rate of return; and (3) match the duration of the liabilities and assets of the plans to reduce the potential risk of large employer contributions being necessary in the future.

Contributions

We expect to contribute $24,000 to our defined benefit pension plans in fiscal year 2015.

11. Share-Based Compensation

We have Stock Incentive Plans providing for the grant of incentive stock options to employees and non-qualified stock options to employees and directors.  The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (“Compensation Committee”) administers the Stock Incentive Plans.  Under the plans, the Compensation Committee may award stock options and shares of Common Stock on a restricted basis.  The plans also specifically provide for stock appreciation rights and authorize the Compensation Committee to provide, either at the time of the grant of an option or otherwise, that the option may be cashed out upon terms and conditions to be determined by the Compensation Committee or the Board of Directors.

Option awards are granted with an exercise price equal to the market price of our stock at the date of grant.  We recognize stock compensation expense in accordance with ASC 718-10 over the requisite service period of the individual grantees, which generally equals the vesting period.  All of our stock compensation is accounted for as equity instruments.

Our 2011 Stock Incentive Plan became effective November 1, 2011 and replaced the 2001 Stock Option Plan that expired on October 31, 2011.  The 2011 Stock Incentive Plan terminates on October 31, 2021.  Stockholders have authorized the issuance of up to 500,000 shares under this plan, and at June 30, 2014, there were 108,535 shares available for future grants.

We recorded share-based compensation related to issuance of stock options and restricted stock to employees, board members, and non-employees, as follows (amounts in thousands of dollars):

Based on historical experience of restricted stock and option pre-vesting cancellations, we estimated an annualized forfeiture rate of 9.0% for unvested restricted stock awards and stock options outstanding as of June 30, 2014.  We estimated a 10.0% annualized forfeiture rate for unvested restricted stock awards and stock options outstanding as of June 30, 2013.  We update our expectation of forfeiture rates quarterly and under the true-up provisions of ASC 718-10, we will record additional expense if the actual forfeiture rate is lower than estimated, and will record a recovery of prior expense if the actual forfeiture is higher than estimated.

We have not received any cash from option exercises under any share-based payment arrangements for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2014, 2013 and 2012.

During fiscal year 2014, we issued 125,000 shares of restricted stock and there are 299,546 total restricted shares outstanding as of June 30, 2014.  85,000 of these restricted shares were issued in fiscal year 2014 to employees and board members that vest over a four year period for the employees and a three year graded vesting period for board members.  Vesting is based solely on a service condition, and restrictions generally release ratably over the service period.  A summary of the activity of our service condition restricted shares during our fiscal year 2014 is presented below:

During fiscal years 2011, 2013 and 2014, we issued performance-based restricted shares (“PSAs”) to senior and executive management and board members.  The PSA’s issued in fiscal year 2011 will be released only if either company performance criteria or market condition criteria are achieved over a three year performance period.  The performance criteria are determined each year and require us to achieve certain annual revenue and operating income goals.  To the extent that these annual goals are met, a portion of the shares will vest and be released. The market condition requires our stock to reach a certain closing share price at the end of three years. Provided that the market condition is met, any remaining shares that did not vest based on the performance condition will become fully vested at the end of the three years.  The PSA’s issued in fiscal years 2013 and 2014 will be released only if company performance criteria are achieved over a three year performance period.  The performance criteria are determined each year and require us to achieve certain financial goals.

During our fiscal year 2014 we released 92,166 PSAs based on meeting performance conditions related to our fiscal year 2013 financial results. Additionally we cancelled 62,934 PSAs in fiscal year 2014.  The cancelled PSAs were granted in fiscal year 2011 to executive management and were forfeited during the period because neither 100% of the performance criteria for our fiscal years 2011 and 2012 financial results were met, nor was the market condition (achievement of certain share price) which ended in 2014, met.  The weighted average grant-date fair-value for our performance shares with both performance and market conditions was based upon a Geometric Brownian Motion model and Monte Carlo simulation.  A summary of the activity of our PSAs during fiscal year 2014 is presented below:

We use the Black-Scholes valuation model to estimate the fair value of each option award on: 1) the date of  grant for grants to employees, and 2) each reporting period-end date for grants to non-employees, until the non- employee shares have vested, at which point the vest date becomes the final measurement date for non-employee grants.  We did not grant any stock options in fiscal years 2014, 2013 and 2012, and there were no unvested options granted to non-employees as of June 30, 2014.  During the third quarter of our fiscal year 2013 our Board of Directors approved a $0.50 reduction in the exercise price of outstanding stock options for existing employees and board members as an equitable adjustment for the $0.50 special dividend declared and paid during the second quarter of our fiscal year 2013.  We accounted for this equitable adjustment to exercise price as a modification on the date of approval.  This modification resulted in less than $1,000 of additional expense as most option exercise prices remain above our stock’s trading price after the equitable adjustment.  We use the Black-Scholes valuation model to estimate the fair value of each option award under modification accounting.

12. Revolving Credit Facility

We had a $10,000,000 credit line with Silicon Valley Bank that matured on December 31, 2013.  We had not drawn against the credit line in the past three years and allowed it to expire on December 31, 2013.    We are currently evaluating whether or not to enter into a new credit arrangement, but based upon our existing cash balances, historical cash usage, and anticipated operating cash flow in the near term, we believe that existing cash balances will be sufficient to meet our anticipated working capital, capital expenditure requirements and any dividend payments for at least the next twelve months. We are no longer subject to any covenants.

13. Gain on Sale of Intellectual Property, net

In the fourth quarter of our fiscal year 2013, we entered into an agreement to sell certain non-strategic patents and patent applications (collectively known as “intellectual property”) that Concurrent originally acquired in the purchase of Everstream, Inc. (“Everstream”).  We had not and did not expect to use the technology associated with this intellectual property as part of our ongoing or planned operations.  This intellectual property was originally valued at $0 upon our acquisition of Everstream.  On June 28, 2013 we closed on this agreement with the purchaser and the purchaser transferred $2,750,000 of cash to us as payment in full for this intellectual property.  As part of the execution of this agreement, we incurred approximately $369,000 of commissions and legal fees that we have netted against the gross proceeds, as these expenses were incurred as a result of the sale, and would not have been incurred otherwise.

14. Concentration of Risk

Sales to unaffiliated customers outside the U.S. were $30,178,000, $24,474,000 and $30,093,000 for the years ended June 30, 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively, which amounts represented 42%, 39% and 50% of total sales for the respective fiscal years.

Sales to the U.S. government, prime contractors and agencies of the U.S. government amounted to approximately $10,072,000, $9,573,000 and $8,060,000 for the years ended June 30, 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively, which amounts represented 14%, 15% and 13%, respectively, of total sales for each of the fiscal years.

As of June 30, 2014, we have recorded $285,000 of dividends payable to holders of restricted common stock who held restricted shares at the time of dividend record dates and still hold those restricted shares as of June 30, 2014.  Such dividends will be paid when the restrictions on a holder’s restricted common shares lapse.  This dividend payable is divided between current payable and non-current payable in the amounts of $67,000 and $218,000, respectively, based upon the expected vest date of the underlying shares. These holders of restricted common stock will receive the dividend payments as long as they remain eligible at the vest date of the shares. As of June 30, 2014, $63,000 of dividends payable were forfeited and returned to capital for restricted shares that were forfeited prior to meeting vesting requirements.  Because the participants are not entitled to these dividends unless they complete the requisite service period for the shares to vest, they are not participating dividends as defined under ASC 260-10.

17. Commitments and Contingencies
 
We lease certain office space, warehousing, and equipment under various operating leases.  The leases expire at various dates through 2018 and generally provide for the payment of taxes, insurance and maintenance costs.  Additionally, certain leases contain escalation clauses that provide for increased rents resulting from the pass through of increases in operating costs, property taxes and consumer price indexes.

From time to time, we are involved in litigation incidental to the conduct of our business.  We believe that such pending litigation will not have a material adverse effect on our results of operations or financial condition.
 
We enter into agreements in the ordinary course of business with customers that often require us to defend and/or indemnify the customer against intellectual property infringement claims brought by a third party with respect to our products.  For example, we were notified that certain of our customers have settled with or been sued by the following companies, in the noted jurisdictions, regarding the listed patents:

We continue to review our potential obligations under our indemnification agreements with these customers and the indemnity obligations to these customers from other vendors that also provided systems and services to these customers.  From time to time, we also indemnify customers and business partners for damages, losses and liabilities they may suffer or incur relating to personal injury, personal property damage, product liability, and environmental claims relating to the use of our products and services or resulting from our acts or omissions, our employees, authorized agents or subcontractors.  We have not accrued any material liabilities related to such indemnifications in our financial statements and do not expect any other material costs as a result of such obligations.  The maximum potential amount of future payments that we could be required to make is unlimited, and we are unable to estimate any possible loss or range of possible loss.

Pursuant to the terms of the employment agreements with our executive officers and certain other employees, employment may be terminated by either the respective executive officer or us at any time.  In the event the employee voluntarily resigns (except as described below) or is terminated for cause, compensation under the employment agreement will end.  In the event an agreement is terminated by us without cause or in certain circumstances constructively by us, the terminated employee will receive severance compensation for a period from 6 to 12 months, depending on the officer, in an annualized amount equal to the respective employee's base salary then in effect.  In the event our CEO resigns within three months of a change in control or the CEO’s agreement is terminated by us within one year of a change of control other than for due cause, disability or non-renewal by our CEO, our CEO will be entitled to severance compensation multiplied by two.  Additionally, if terminated, our CEO and CFO may be entitled to bonuses during the severance period.  At June 30, 2014, the maximum contingent liability under these agreements is $3,050,000.  Our employment agreements with certain of our employees contain certain offset provisions, as defined in their respective agreements.
