HAUPPAUGE DIGITAL INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes To Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

 

Note 1. Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements for Hauppauge Digital Inc. and subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) included herein have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim period reporting in conjunction with the instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, these statements do not include all of the information required by generally accepted accounting principles for annual financial statements. In the opinion of management, all known adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals and reserves) necessary to present fairly the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows as of and for the interim periods have been included. It is suggested that these interim statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes included in the Company's September 30, 2012 Form 10-K.

 

The operating results for the three months and nine months ended June 30, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2013.

 

The Company’s cash requirements for the next twelve months will include, among other things, the cash to fund its operating and working capital needs. The Company relies exclusively upon cash generated from its operations to fund these needs. The Company does not have a working capital line of credit or other borrowing facility in place to draw upon in the event that cash from its operations are insufficient to fund its capital requirements to sustain its operations. Based on the Company’s current scale of operating expenses and the Company’s new product development schedule, the Company has evaluated that its cash and cash equivalents as of June 30, 2013 and its internally generated cash may not provide sufficient liquidity to meet its capital needs for the next twelve months, and that additional sources of cash may be required to meet its capital needs.

 

The Company has incurred operating losses for the last five fiscal years and in the nine month period ended June 30, 2013. Those losses are primarily attributable to a continuing decline in sales. In the quarter ended June 30, 2013, the Company experienced an unprecedented and precipitous 46% drop in sales from the quarter ended March 31, 2013. The Company believes that its sales have declined for reasons which we described in Item 1A of the Company’s Annual Report on 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2012, including, among other things:

 

·

Reliance on a small number of its product lines being successful, the failure of any one of which could substantially reduce its sales.

·

The Companny’s potential inability to develop new products or services that will meet its customers’ needs or wants.

·

Intense competitive pressures from larger companies that have greater resources than the Company and from new market entrants, stemming from frequent new product introductions, technological advances, and declining sales prices, among other things.

·

The Company’s potential inability to remain ahead of the development of competing technologies, products and services.

·

Lack of market diversification.

·

Heavy reliance on retailers, dealers and PC manufacturers to market, sell and distribute the Company’s products

 

8

 

Since the fourth quarter of fiscal 2011, the Company has been implementing expense reduction initiatives. The Company switched from air to ocean freight to reduce shipping costs, outsourced most of its shipping and logistics to a third party, reduced personel, relocated certain facilities to smaller offices, renogotiated certain exisitng leases to reduce rent and closed certain sales offices. The Company believes that it may be increasingly difficult to make further material reductions in costs and maintain a viable operating plan. Addiitonally, absent a recovery in its business, the Company may be required to reduce its current expectations of future cash flows and pre tax operating results, which, in turn, may result in charges for the impairment of its longed lived assets and/or increase the valuation allowance against its net deferred tax assets. Such charges could be material.

 

The Company is working to develop a strategy to address its continuing operating losses and loss of sales, and the Company has retained Corporate Fuel Advisors, an investment bank and advisory firm, to assist the Company in considering and pursuing strategic alternatives, including possible additional financing to fund its capital needs and the restructuring of its business.

 

The Company cannot assure that it will be able to develop and implement a plan that will enable it to successfully address its business and financial challenges. Among other things:

 

·

If the Company seeks financing, the Company may not be able to obtain funding to address its capital needs on commercially reasonable terms, or at all.

·

The Company may not be able to develop new lines of products or services that will be positively accepted by the marketplace.

·

The Company may not be able to successfully compete with its competitors’ product and service offerings.

·

Customers and consumers may lose confidence in the Company as a result of its financial condition and perfomance, its potential de-listing from Nasdaq, should the Company lose its appeal related to such  de-listing, and their perceptions of the Company’s business prospects and competitive position, and they may cease to do business with us or buy the Company’s products.

 

If any strategic or restructuring plan that the Company’s develops and implements is not successful, there is a substantial risk that that the Company might not be able to sustain its operations at current levels, which would have a material adverse effect on its business, operating results and financial condition.

 

Note 2. Trade Accounts and Other Non-Trade Receivables

Note 3. Inventories

 

Inventories have been valued at the lower of average cost or market on a first in first out basis. The components of inventory consist of:

 

		June 30,				September 30,
		2013				2012
Component parts		$	3,782,816			$	3,412,673

Reserve for anticipated sales returns at cost			1,631,152				2,521,899
Total		$	12,055,389			$	9,497,856

 

Note 4. Net Income (Loss) Per Share

 

Basic net income (loss) per share includes no dilution and is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. Diluted net income (loss) per share reflects, in the periods in which they have a dilutive effect, the dilution which would occur upon the exercise of stock options. A reconciliation of the shares used in calculating basic and diluted net income per share is as follows:

 

		Three months ended								Nine months ended
		June 30								June 30,
		2013				2012				2013				2012
Weighted average shares outstanding-basic			10,122,344				10,122,344				10,122,344				10,122,344
Number of shares issued on the assumed exercise of stock options			-				-				-				-
Weighted average shares outstanding-diluted			10,122,344				10,122,344				10,122,344				10,122,344

 

Options to purchase 1,478,125 and 1,531,567 shares of common stock, at prices from $0.74 to $7.45 and from $0.77 to $7.45, were outstanding for the three months and nine months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, but were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because they were anti-dilutive.

 

Note 5. Product segment and geographic information

 

The Company operates in one business segment, which is the development, marketing and manufacturing of analog and digital video products for the personal computer market and Apple iPad® and iPhone® market. The products are similar in function and share commonality of component parts and manufacturing processes. The Company’s products are either sold, or can be sold, by the same retailers and distributors in the Company’s marketing channel. The Company also sells product directly to PC manufacturers.

The Company’s products fall under three product categories:

 

·

Video recorder products, such as USB-Live2, which allows consumers to record video tapes to DVD disc or to some of the Company’s products, such as the HD PVR and Colossus

·

TV receivers, which include Broadway and the Company’s WinTV and PCTV TV tuner products

·

Non-TV tuner products such as the ImpactVCB, MediaMVP-HD and the Company’s TV applications for the PC and the Apple iPad® and iPhone®

 

The Company’s TV tuner products enable, among other things, a PC user to watch TV in a resizable window on a PC. The Company’s video recorder products allow consumers to record high definition video from a cable TV or satellite set top box or a game console such as a Xbox 360 or Sony Playstation 3. The Company’s other non-TV tuner products enable, among other things, the ability to watch and listen to PC based videos, music and pictures on a TV set through a home network.

 

Sales by functional category are as follows:

 

		Three months ended June 30,								Nine months ended June 30,
Product line sales		2013				2012				2013				2012
Video recorder products		$	2,252,347			$	4,137,859			$	15,437,377			$	19,115,575
TV tuner products			3,076,013				4,629,434				11,781,107				14,747,645
Other video products and software			259,272				448,410				735,461				2,100,698
Total sales		$	5,587,632			$	9,215,703			$	27,953,945			$	35,963,918

 

The Company sells its products through a North American and international network of distributors and retailers. It maintains sales offices in the United States, Europe and Asia. Sales percentages by geographic region are as follows:

 

		Three months ended June 30,								Nine months ended June 30,
Geographic region		2013				2013				2013				2012

Note 6. Tax provision

 

The Company’s tax provision for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 is as follows:

 

		Three months ended June 30,								Nine months ended June 30,
		2013				2012				2013				2012
Current federal tax expense (benefit)		$	(28,850	)		$	-			$	-			$	-
Current state taxes			10,000				10,000				30,000				30,000
Current tax expense on international operations			20,441				25,469				73,024				77,864
Deferred tax (benefit) expense			(157,187	)			(116,627	)			526,129				434,211
Tax (benefit) provision		$	(155,596	)		$	(81,158	)		$	629,153			$	542,075

 

The deferred tax expense was primarily due to the utilization of net operating losses and the utilization of deferred timing differences related to our United States subsidiary.

 

Note 7. Accrued expense-fees

 

The Company uses various software and technologies in certain of its products.  In certain cases, the Company purchases or licenses these software and technologies from third parties. The related purchase or license agreements provide for payment of royalty and other fees associated with the Company's sale of the related products. Such fees are estimated and get accrued and reflected as a component of cost of sales when those sales occur.  In certain circumstances, such fees are not specifically covered by contractual arrangements but are nonetheless potentially due to the third party sellers or owners of the software and technologies.  The Company uses all available applicable information in determining these estimates and thus the accrued amounts are subject to change as new information is made available to the Company. Occasionally, third parties audit the Company's historical determination of fees and adjustments are made.  Accrued fees are subject to elimination after three to seven years if not billed by or requested from the third parties.

 

Based on new information obtained during fiscal 2013, including the completion of a significant third party audit, the Company reduced its accrued expenses - fees balance by $2,214,453.  This estimate change resulted in an improved gross margin during fiscal 2013.  As of June 30, 2013 and September 30, 2012, the amount of accrued expense-fees amounted to $12,549,844 and $12,943,022, respectively.

 

Note 8. Accrued Expenses

 

Accrued expenses are for costs incurred for goods and services which are based on estimates, charged as incurred to operations as period costs and for which no invoice has been rendered. Accrued expenses as of June 30, 2013 and September 30, 2012 were $2,771,337 and $3,668,491, respectively. Included in accrued expenses are accruals for product costs, accruals for sales costs relating to sales rebate programs, accruals for freight and duty expenses, accruals for compensation, accruals for warranty repair costs and accruals for advertising and marketing costs. For the nine months ended June 30, 2013, the Company, using the most recent information available, reviewed its estimates for accruals for which no invoice has been rendered. As a result of this review, the Company recorded a change in estimate of $400,697 as a reduction in operating expenses related to unused severance accruals.

Note 9. Fair Value Measurements

 

ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures”, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands the related disclosure requirements. The ASC indicates, among other things, that a fair value measurement assumes a transaction to sell an asset or transfer a liability occurs in the principal market for the asset or liability or, in the absence of a principal market, the most advantageous market for the asset or liability. The Company also follows the provisions of ASC 820-10 with respect to its non-financial assets and liabilities adopted during the first quarter of fiscal 2010. In order to increase consistency and comparability in fair value measurements, ASC 820-10 establishes a hierarchy for observable and unobservable inputs used to measure fair value into three broad Levels, which are described below:

 

• Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for assets or liabilities. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to Level 1 inputs.

• Level 2: Observable prices that are based on inputs not quoted on active markets, but corroborated by market data.

• Level 3: Unobservable inputs are used when little or no market data is available. The fair value hierarchy gives the lowest priority to Level 3 inputs.

 

In determining fair value, the Company utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible as well as considers counterparty credit risk in its assessment of fair value.

 

Additionally, on a nonrecurring basis, the Company uses fair value measures when analyzing asset impairment. Long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangible assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. If it is determined such indicators are present and the review indicates that the assets will not be fully recoverable, based on undiscounted estimated cash flows over the remaining amortization periods, their carrying values are reduced to estimated fair value. Measurements based on undiscounted cash flows are considered to be Level 3 inputs.

 

The carrying amount of cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable and other short-term financial instruments approximate their fair value due to their short-term nature.

Gross profit

 

Gross profit decreased $1,165,122 for the three months ended June 30, 2013 compared to the same quarter in the prior fiscal year. The decrease in gross profit was due to:

 

		Three Months ended
Gross profit in dollars-increase (decrease)		6/30/13
Lower sales		$	(1,498,273	)
Stronger Euro			34,746
Labor related and other costs			378,849
Lower gross profit due to mix of sales			(120,203	)
License fee adjustment			39,759
Total decrease in gross profit		$	(1,165,122	)

 

The decrease in the gross profit percentage was due to:

 

		Three Months ended

Sales mix of lower gross profit sales			(2.39	)%
Stronger Euro			0.39	%
Labor related and other costs			(1.35	)%
License fee adjustment			1.19	%
Total gross profit percentage decrease			(2.16	)%

 

The factors contributing to the gross profit percentage decrease of 2.16% for the three months ended June 30, 2013 were primarily:

 

·

Unfavorable gross profit percentage due to sales mix of lower average sales price product resulted in a decrease of 2.39%.

·

An increase in the USD to Euro exchange rate from $1.2833 for the three months ended June 30, 2012 to $1.13069 for the three months ended June 30, 2013 resulted in a gross profit increase of 0.39%.

·

Selling, general and administrative expense for the third quarter of fiscal 2013 decreased $285,195 from the prior year’s third fiscal quarter as follows:

 

Sales and marketing expenses decreased $246,197, driven primarily by $207,792 in lower commission and co-operative advertising expense, which declined due to lower sales, and $36,661 in lower sales office expense due to reduction in personnel.

 

The decrease in technical support of $1,911 was primarily due to lower personnel expenses. The decrease in general and administrative expenses of $35,242 was due mainly to lower depreciation expense and lower credit card processing fees due to the issuing of credit lines to certain customers who previously purchased product with credit cards. The decrease in stock compensation expense was due to fewer non vested options outstanding issued at a lower fair value price.

 

Research and development expenses

 

Research and development expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2013 increased slightly by $3,223 from the same quarter in the prior fiscal year. The increase was mainly due to lower compensation and compensation related expenses offset by higher product development costs. The decrease in stock compensation expense was due to fewer non vested options outstanding issued at a lower fair value price.

Tax provision

 

Our tax provision for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 is as follows:

 

		Three months ended June 30,
		2013				2012
Current federal tax expense (benefit)		$	(28,850	)		$	-
Current state taxes			10,000				10,000
Current tax expense on international operations			20,441				25,469
Deferred tax benefit			(157,187	)			(116,627	)
Tax benefit		$	(155,596	)		$	(81,158	)

 

Deferred tax benefit for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 was primarily due to increases in net operating losses.

 

Summary of operations

 

We recorded a net loss of $1,800,398 for the three months ended June 30, 2013, which resulted in basic and diluted net loss per share of $0.18 on weighted average basic and diluted shares of 10,122,344, compared to a net loss of $1,026,983 for the three months ended June 30, 2012, which resulted in basic and diluted net loss per share of $0.10 on weighted average basic and diluted shares of 10,122,344.

 

Options to purchase 1,478,125 and 1,531,567 shares of common stock, at prices from $0.74 to $7.45 and from $0.77 to $7.45, were outstanding for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, but were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because they were anti-dilutive.

Increased competition, tepid economic conditions in Europe and a greater sales decline in our seasonally slow third fiscal quarter had a negative impact on sales. In addition, fiscal 2012 included the product rollouts of the DCR-2650 cable card, the Broadway, the HD-PVR gaming unit and the MY TV 2 Go TV application for the PC, Apple iPad® and iPhone® product. The rollout of these products resulted in a concentration of sales for fiscal 2012, which did not repeat in fiscal 2013.

Selling, general and administrative expense for the nine months ended June 30, 2013 decreased $681,633 from same period in the prior fiscal year as follows:

 

Sales and marketing expenses decreased $557,379, driven primarily by $412,461 in lower commission and co-operative advertising expense, which declined due to lower sales, and a reduction in expenses of $213,783 for a change in estimate for unused severance liabilities. The decrease in expenses was offset somewhat by $83,586 in higher compensation expenses related to the addition of sales and marketing resources.

 

The decrease in technical support of $23,931 was primarily due to lower personnel expenses. The decrease in general and administrative expenses of $93,162 was due primarily to decreases in rent and utilities due to the relocation of offices to smaller spaces, lower credit card processing fees due to the issuing lines of credit to certain customers who previously purchased product with credit cards, lower bad debt expense and lower depreciation. This was offset by to higher legal fees for consultation required during fiscal 2013. The decrease in stock compensation expense was due to fewer non vested options outstanding issued at a lower fair value price.

 

Research and development expenses

 

Research and development expenses for the nine months ended June 30, 2013 decreased $118,533 from the same period in the prior fiscal year. The decrease was mainly due to lower compensation expenses of $199,112, primarily due to a change in estimate for unused severance liabilities, offset by $81,314 in higher product development related expenses. The decrease in stock compensation expense was due to fewer non vested options outstanding issued at a lower fair value price.

We recorded a net loss of $1,043,704 for the nine months ended June 30, 2013, which resulted in basic and diluted net loss per share of $0.10 on weighted average basic and diluted shares of 10,122,344, compared to a net loss of $930,231 for the nine months ended June 30, 2012, which resulted in basic and diluted net loss per share of $0.09 on weighted average basic and diluted shares of 10,122,344.

 

Options to purchase 1,478,125 and 1,531,567 shares of common stock, at prices from $0.74 to $7.45 and from $0.77 to $7.45, were outstanding for the nine months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, but were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because they were anti-dilutive.

 

Seasonality

 

As our sales are primarily to the consumer market, we have experienced certain seasonal revenue trends. Historically, our peak sales quarter due to holiday season sales is our first fiscal quarter (October to December), followed by our second fiscal quarter (January to March). In addition, our international sales, mostly in the European market, were 44% of sales for fiscal year ended September 30, 2012 and 41% for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2011. Part of our third and fourth quarters (April through June and July to September) can be potentially impacted by the reduction of activity experienced in Europe during the summer holiday period.

 

We target a wide range of customer types to attempt to moderate the seasonal nature of our retail sales.

 

Liquidity and capital resources

 

The Company had cash and cash equivalents as of June 30, 2013 of $2,254,689, a decrease of $2,841,164 from September 30, 2012.

Net cash decrease		$	(2,819,615	)		$	(30,002	)		$	0			$	(2,841,164	)

 

Cash used in operating activities of $2,819,615 was due to an increase in inventory of $3,618,079, a decrease in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $760,106 and an increase in prepaid expenses and other current assets of $154,464. Sources of cash came from the net loss adjusted for non cash items of $35,234 and a decrease in accounts receivable of $1,677,800. The increase in inventory was due to a change in the delivery method of product from air shipments to boat shipments and a higher seasonal decline in sales than forecasted. We believe the change in delivery method from air to ocean will save on freight costs but require an additional investment in inventory in recognition of the anticipated four to five week transit time. The decrease in accounts payable and accrued expenses was due to the timing of payment to suppliers. The decrease in accounts receivable was due to cash collections coupled with lower sales in the third fiscal quarter compared to the previous two fiscal quarters. Cash of $30,002 was used to purchase capital equipment. We had a working capital deficit of $1,873,043 as of June 30, 2013 compared to a working capital deficit of $1,433,704 as of September 30, 2012.

 

Our cash requirements for the next twelve months will include, among other things, the cash to fund our operating and working capital needs. We rely exclusively upon cash generated from our operations to fund these needs. We do not have a working capital line of credit or other borrowing facility in place to draw upon in the event that cash from our operations is insufficient to fund our capital requirements to sustain our operations. Based on our current scale of operating expenses and our new product development schedule, we have evaluated that our cash and cash equivalents as of June 30, 2013 and our internally generated cash may not provide sufficient liquidity to meet our capital needs for the next twelve months, and that additional sources of cash may be required to meet our capital needs.

 

We have incurred operating losses for the last five fiscal years and in the nine month period ended June 30, 2013. Those losses are primarily attributable to a continuing decline in sales. In the quarter ended June 30, 2013, we experienced an unprecedented and precipitous 46% drop in sales from the quarter ended March 31, 2013. We believe that our sales have declined for reasons which we described in Item 1A of our Annual Report on 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2012, including, among other things:

 

22

 

·

Reliance on a small number of our product lines being successful, the failure of any one of which could substantially reduce our sales.

·

Our potential inability to develop new products or services that will meet our customers’ needs or wants.

·

Intense competitive pressures from larger companies that have greater resources than we do and from new market entrants, stemming from frequent new product introductions, technological advances, and declining sales prices, among other things.

·

Our potential inability to remain ahead of the development of competing technologies, products and services.

·

Lack of market diversification.

·

Heavy reliance on retailers, dealers and PC manufacturers to market, sell and distribute our products.

 

Since the fourth quarter of fiscal 2011, we have been implementing expense reduction initiatives. We switched from air to ocean freight to reduce shipping costs, outsourced most of our shipping and logistics to a third party, reduced personel, relocated certain facilities to smaller offices, renegotiated certain existing leases to reduce rent and closed certain sales offices. We believe that it may be increasingly difficult to make further material reductions in costs and maintain a viable operating plan. Additionally , absent a recovery in our business, we may be required to reduce our current expectations of future cash flows and pre-tax operating results, which, in turn, may result in charges for the impairment of our longed lived assets and/or  increase the valuation allowance against our net deferred tax assets. Such charges could be material. 

 

We are working to develop a strategy to address our continuing operating losses and loss of sales, and we have retained Corporate Fuel Advisors, an investment bank and advisory firm, to assist us in considering and pursuing strategic alternatives, including possible additional financing to fund our capital needs and the restructuring of our business.

 

We cannot assure that we will be able to develop and implement a plan that will enable us to successfully address our business and financial challenges. Among other things:

 

·

If we seek financing, we may not be able to obtain funding to address our capital needs on commercially reasonable terms, or at all.

·

We may not be able to develop new lines of products or services that will be positively accepted by the marketplace.

·

We may not be able to successfully compete with our competitors’ product and service offerings.

·

Customers and consumers may lose confidence in us as a result of our financial condition and performance, our potential de-listing from Nasdaq, should we lose our appeal related to such  de-listing, and their perceptions of our business prospects and competitive position, and they may cease to do business with us or buy our products.

 

If any strategic or restructuring plan that we develop and implement is not successful, there is a substantial risk that that we might not be able to sustain our operations at current levels, which would have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition.

Future contractual obligations

 

The following table shows our contractual obligations related to lease obligations as of June 30, 2013:

 

		Payments due by period
		Total				Less than 1 year				1-3 years				3 to 5 years
Operating lease obligations		$	1,444,818			$	601,667			$	843,151			$	0

 

Inflation

 

While inflation has not had a material effect on our operations in the past, there can be no assurance that we will be able to continue to offset the effects of inflation on the costs of our products or services through price increases to our customers without experiencing a reduction in the demand for our products; or that inflation will not have an overall effect on the computer equipment market that would have a material effect on us.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In October 2012, the FASB issued ASU 2012-04, “Technical Corrections and Improvements.” ASU 2012-04 contains amendments to clarify the ASC, correct unintended application of guidance, or make minor improvements to the ASC that are not expected to have a significant effect on current accounting practice or create a significant administrative cost to most entities. Additionally, the amendments are intended to make the ASC easier to understand and the fair value measurement guidance easier to apply by eliminating inconsistencies and providing needed clarifications. The amendments that do not have transition guidance were effective upon issuance. The amendments that are subject to the transition guidance will be effective for fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2012. The adoption of ASU 2012-04 is not anticipated to have a material impact on our results of operations or our financial position.

 

In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-02, “Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income.” ASU 2013-02 requires an entity to report the effect of significant reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income on the respective line items in net income if the amount being reclassified is required to be reclassified in its entirety to net income. For other amounts that are not required to be reclassified in their entirety to net income in the same reporting period, an entity is required to cross-reference other disclosures that provide additional detail about these amounts. The amendments do not change the current requirements for reporting net income or other comprehensive income in financial statements. For public entities, the amendments are effective prospectively for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2012. Early adoption is permitted.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e)) that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure .

 

As required by Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(b), as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2013.

 

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting , identified in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Rule 13a-15 of the Exchange Act, that occurred during our most recently completed fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
