NOTES TO
CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
Note
1. Basis
of Presentation and Management’s Liquidity Plans
Basis of Presentation
- The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements
include the accounts of Andrea Electronics Corporation and its subsidiaries
("Andrea" or the “Company”). All intercompany balances and transactions have
been eliminated in consolidation.
These
unaudited, condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America for interim financial information and with the
instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the
information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for complete financial
statements. In addition, the December 31, 2007 balance sheet data was
derived from the audited consolidated financial statements, but does not include
all disclosures required by GAAP. In the opinion of management, all
adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a
fair presentation have been included. The results of operations of any interim
period are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be
expected for any other interim period or for the fiscal year.
These
unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto
for the year ended December 31, 2007 included in the Company's Form 10-KSB for
the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007, filed on March 31, 2008. The
accounting policies used in preparing these unaudited condensed consolidated
interim financial statements are consistent with those described in the December
31, 2007 audited consolidated financial statements.
Management's Liquidity
Plans - As of September 30, 2008, Andrea had working capital of
$1,993,116 and cash on hand of $1,156,518. Andrea’s income from
operations was $23,258 for the three months ended September 30,
2008. Andrea incurred a loss from operations of $347,760 for the nine
months ended September 30, 2008. Andrea plans to continue to improve
its cash flows during the remainder of 2008 and in 2009 by aggressively pursuing
additional licensing opportunities related to Andrea DSP Audio Software and
increasing its Andrea Anti-Noise Headset Products sales through the introduction
of refreshed product line which was introduced in September 2008 as well as the
increased efforts the Company is dedicating to its sales and marketing
efforts. However, there can be no assurance that Andrea will be able
to successfully execute the aforementioned plans.
As of
November 10, 2008, Andrea has approximately $1,200,000 of cash. Management
projects that Andrea has sufficient liquidity available to operate through at
least September 2009. While Andrea explores opportunities to increase
revenues in new business areas, the Company also continues to examine additional
opportunities for cost reduction and further diversification of its
business. Since the third quarter of 2006, Andrea has had generated
cash from operations. Although these steps are encouraging, if Andrea
fails to develop additional revenues from sales of its products and licensing of
its technology or to generate adequate funding from operations, or if Andrea
fails to obtain additional financing through a capital transaction or other type
of financing, Andrea will be required to continue to significantly reduce its
operating expenses and/or operations or Andrea may have to relinquish its
products, technologies or markets which could have a materially adverse effect
on revenue and operations. Andrea has no commitment for additional financing and
may experience difficulty in obtaining additional financing on favorable terms,
if at all.
Note
2. Summary
of Significant Accounting Policies
Earnings (loss) Per
Share - Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net
income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during
the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share adjusts basic earnings
(loss) per share for the effects of convertible securities, stock options and
other potentially dilutive financial instruments, only in the periods in which
such effect is dilutive. Securities that could potentially dilute
basic earnings (loss) per share (“EPS”) in the future that were not included in
the computation of the diluted EPS because to do so would have been
anti-dilutive for the periods presented, consist of the following:

* Amounts

At
September 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, one supplier accounted for
approximately 73% and 22%, respectively of accounts payable. The
significant amount of purchases from one supplier during the three months ended
September 30, 2008 relates to purchases of inventory relating to our refreshed
product line. Although these products were primarily purchased from
one vendor, this source is a replaceable source.
Allowance for Doubtful
Accounts - The Company performs on-going credit evaluations of its
customers and adjusts credit limits based upon payment history and the
customer’s current credit worthiness, as determined by the review of their
current credit information. Collections and payments from customers
are continuously monitored. The Company maintains an allowance for
doubtful accounts, which is based upon historical experience as well as specific
customer collection issues that have been identified. While such bad
debt expenses have historically been within expectations and allowances
established, the Company cannot guarantee that it will continue to experience
the same credit loss rates that it has in the past. If the financial
condition of customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their
ability to make payments, additional allowances may be required.

Inventories -
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (on a first-in, first-out) or market
basis. The cost elements of inventories include materials, labor and
overhead. Andrea reviews its inventory reserve for obsolescence on a
quarterly basis and establishes reserves on inventories when the cost of the
inventory is not expected to be recovered. Andrea’s policy is to
reserve for inventory that shows slow movement over the preceding six
consecutive quarters. Andrea records charges in inventory reserves as
part of cost of revenues.

Intangible and Long-Lived
Assets - Andrea accounts for its long-lived assets in accordance with
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 144, “Accounting for
the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets” for purposes of determining and
measuring impairment of its long-lived assets (primarily intangible assets)
other than goodwill. Andrea’s policy is to periodically review the value
assigned to its long-lived assets to determine if they have been permanently
impaired by adverse conditions which may affect Andrea. If Andrea identifies a
permanent impairment such that the carrying amount of Andrea’s long lived assets
are not recoverable using the sum of an undiscounted cash flow projection (gross
margin dollars from product revenues), a new cost basis for the impaired asset
will be established. If required, an impairment charge is recorded based on an
estimate of future discounted cash flows. This new cost basis will be
net of any recorded impairment.
Because
the Andrea DSP Microphone and Audio Software Products business segment was
operating at a loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 and because the
revenues from the Andrea DSP Microphone and Audio Software Products business
segment were lower than expected and this business segment was operating at a
loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2007, management compared the sum
of Andrea’s undiscounted cash flow projections (gross margin dollars from
product sales) of the Andrea DSP Microphone and Audio Software core technology
to the carrying value of that technology. The results of this test
indicated that there was not an impairment. This process utilized
probability weighted undiscounted cash flow projections which include a
significant amount of management’s judgment and estimates as to future
revenue. If these probability weighted projections do not come to
fruition, the Company could be required to record an impairment charge in the
near term and such impairment could be material.
Andrea
amortizes its core technology, patents and trademarks on a straight-line basis
over the estimated useful lives of its intangible assets that range from 15 to
17 years. For the three-month periods ended September 30, 2008 and
2007, amortization expense was $119,487 and $118,130,
respectively. For the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2008 and
2007, amortization expense was $356,978 and $354,127, respectively.
Revenue Recognition –
Non-software related revenue, which is generally comprised of microphones and
microphone connectivity product revenues, is recognized when title and risk of
loss pass to the customer, which is generally upon shipment. With
respect to licensing revenues, Andrea recognizes revenue in accordance with
Statement of Position (“SOP”) 97-2, “Software Revenue Recognition,” as amended,
and Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 13 “Revenue Recognition in Financial
Statements.” License revenue is recognized based on the terms and
conditions of individual contracts (see Note 5). In addition, fee
based services, which are short-term in nature, are generally performed on a
time-and-material basis under separate service arrangements and the
corresponding revenue is generally recognized as the services are
performed.

Income Taxes - The
provision for income taxes is a result of certain licensing revenues that are
subject to withholding of income tax as mandated by the foreign jurisdiction in
which the revenues are earned. For all other income taxes, Andrea
accounts for income taxes in accordance with SFAS No. 109, “Accounting for
Income Taxes” and Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Interpretation
No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes – an interpretation of FASB
Statement No. 109” (“FIN 48”). SFAS No. 109 requires an asset and
liability approach for financial accounting and reporting for income
taxes. FIN 48 establishes for all entities a minimum threshold for
financial statement recognition of the benefit of tax positions, and requires
certain expanded disclosures. Using the guidelines set forth in both
of these statements, the provision for income taxes is based upon income or loss
after adjustment for those permanent items that are not considered in the
determination of taxable income. Deferred income taxes represent the tax effects
of differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of the Company’s
assets and liabilities at the enacted tax rates in effect for the years in which
the differences are expected to reverse. The Company evaluates the
recoverability of deferred tax assets and establishes a valuation allowance when
it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets
will not be realized. Since cumulative losses weigh heavily in the
overall assessment, Andrea provides a full valuation allowance on future tax
benefits until it can sustain a level of profitability that demonstrates its
ability to utilize the assets, or other significant positive evidence arises
that suggests Andrea’s ability to utilize such assets. If it becomes
more likely than not that a tax asset will be used, the related valuation
allowance on such assets would be reversed. Management makes
judgments as to the interpretation of the tax laws that might be challenged upon
an audit and cause changes to previous estimates of tax liability. In
management’s opinion, adequate provisions for income taxes have been made for
all years. If actual taxable income by tax jurisdiction varies from
estimates, additional allowances or reversals of reserves may be
necessary. Income tax expense consists of the tax payable for the
period and the change during the period in deferred tax assets and
liabilities. The Company has identified its federal tax return and
its state tax return in New York as "major" tax jurisdictions, as defined in FIN
48. Based on the Company's evaluation, it has concluded that there
are no significant uncertain tax positions requiring recognition in the
Company's financial statements. The Company's evaluation was
performed for tax years ended 2003 through 2007. The Company believes
that its income tax positions and deductions will be sustained on audit and does
not anticipate any adjustments that will result in a material change to its
financial position.
Stock-Based
Compensation - At September 30, 2008, Andrea had three stock-based
employee compensation plans, which are described more fully in Note
7. Andrea accounts for stock based compensation in accordance with
SFAS No. 123R, “Share-Based Payment.” SFAS No. 123R establishes
accounting for stock-based awards exchanged for employee
services. Under the provisions of SFAS No. 123R, share-based
compensation cost is measured at the grant date, based on the fair value of the
award, and is recognized as expense over the employee’s requisite service period
(generally the vesting period of the equity grant). The fair value of
the Company’s common stock options are estimated using the Black Scholes
option-pricing model with the following assumptions: expected
volatility, dividend rate, risk free interest rate and the expected
life. The Company expenses stock-based compensation by using the
straight-line method. In accordance with SFAS No. 123R, excess tax
benefits realized from the exercise of stock-based awards are classified in cash
flows from financing activities. The future realization of the
reserved deferred tax assets related to these tax benefits associated with the
exercise of stock option will result in a credit to additional paid in capital
if the related tax deduction reduces taxes payable. The Company has
elected the “with and without approach” regarding ordering of windfall tax
benefits to determine whether the windfall tax benefit did reduce taxes payable
in the current year. Under this approach the windfall tax
benefit would be recognized in additional paid-in-capital only if an incremental
tax benefit is realized after considering all other benefits presently
available.
Recently Issued Accounting
Pronouncements
In
December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141R, “Business Combinations” (“SFAS
141R”), which replaces SFAS No. 141, “Business Combinations.” SFAS 141R
establishes principles and requirements for determining how an enterprise
recognizes and measures the fair value of certain assets and liabilities
acquired in a business combination, including noncontrolling interests,
contingent consideration, and certain acquired contingencies. SFAS 141R also
requires acquisition-related transaction expenses and restructuring costs be
expensed as incurred rather than capitalized as a component of the business
combination. SFAS 141R will be applicable to the Company for fiscal 2009. SFAS
141R would have an impact on accounting for any businesses acquired after the
effective date of this pronouncement.
In
December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in
Consolidated Financial Statements – An Amendment of ARB No. 51” (“SFAS 160”).
SFAS 160 establishes accounting and reporting standards for the noncontrolling
interest in a subsidiary (previously referred to as minority interests). SFAS
160 also requires that a retained noncontrolling interest upon the
deconsolidation of a subsidiary be initially measured at its fair value. Upon
adoption of SFAS 160, the Company would be required to report any noncontrolling
interests as a separate component of stockholders’ equity. The
Company would also be required to present any net income allocable to
noncontrolling interests and net income attributable to the stockholders of the
Company separately in its consolidated statements of operations. SFAS 160 is
effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years,
beginning on or after December 15, 2008. SFAS 160 requires retroactive adoption
of the presentation and disclosure requirements for existing minority interests.
All other requirements of SFAS 160 shall be applied prospectively. SFAS 160
would have an impact on the presentation and disclosure of the noncontrolling
interests of any non wholly-owned businesses acquired in the
future.

On
February 12, 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position (FSP) No. SFAS 157-2,
“Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157” (FSP SFAS 157-2). FSP SFAS 157-2
amends SFAS No. 157, to delay the effective date of SFAS 157 for nonfinancial
assets and nonfinancial liabilities, except for the items that are recognized or
disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis. For
items within its scope, FSP SFAS 157-2 defers the effective date of SFAS 157 to
fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008, and interim periods within those
fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting SFAS
157 and FSP SFAS 157-2 on its consolidated financial statements.
In March
2008, the FASB issued SFAS 161, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and
Hedging Activities an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133”, which amends and
expands the disclosure requirements of SFAS 133 to require qualitative
disclosure about objectives and strategies for using derivatives, quantitative
disclosures about fair value amounts of and gains and losses on derivative
instruments, and disclosures about credit-risk-related contingent features in
derivative agreements. This statement will be effective for the Company
beginning on January 1, 2009. The adoption of this statement will change the
disclosures related to derivative instruments that might be held by the
Company.
Reclassifications -
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year
presentation.
Use of Estimates -
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America, requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets,
liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of
the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses
during the reporting period.
Management
bases its estimates on historical experience and on various assumptions that are
believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the
basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities
that are not readily apparent from other sources. The most
significant estimates, among other things, are used in accounting for allowances
for bad debts, inventory valuation and obsolescence, product warranty,
depreciation, deferred income taxes, expected realizable values for assets
(primarily intangible assets), contingencies, revenue recognition as well as the
recording and presentation of the Company’s convertible preferred stock.
Estimates and assumptions are periodically reviewed and the effects of any
material revisions are reflected in the condensed consolidated financial
statements in the period that they are determined to be necessary. Actual
results could differ from those estimates and assumptions.

Chairman of the Board, Douglas J Andrea. The effective date of the
employment agreement is August 1, 2008 and expires July 31, 2010 and is subject
to renewal as approved by the Compensation Committee of the Board of
Directors. Pursuant to his employment agreement, Mr. Andrea will
receive an annual base salary of $312,500 through July 31, 2009 and for the
period of August 1, 2009 through July 31, 2010 Mr. Andrea’s will receive an
annual base salary of $325,000. The employment agreement provides for

to exceed $12,500; and annual bonuses equal to 10% of the Company’s annual
pre-bonus net after tax earnings in excess of $300,000. All bonuses
shall be payable as soon as the Company's cash flow permits. All
bonus determinations or any additional bonus in excess of the above will be made
in the sole discretion of the Compensation Committee. On August 8, 2008, the
Board granted Mr. Andrea 2,000,000 stock options and 1,000,000 stock options

three equal annual installments over a three year period commencing August 1,
2009. The 1,000,000 grant vests in three equal annual installments
over a three year period commencing August 1, 2010. All stock options
granted have an exercise price of $0.04 per share, which was fair market value
at the date of grant, and a term of 10 years. Pursuant to the
employment agreement and subject to the approval of the Board, the Compensation

7. Stock
Plans and Stock Based Compensation
In 1991,
the Board of Directors of Andrea (the “Board”) adopted the 1991 Performance
Equity Plan (“1991 Plan”), which was approved by the shareholders. The 1991
Plan, as amended, authorizes the granting of awards, the exercise of which would
allow up to an aggregate of 4,000,000 shares of Andrea’s Common Stock to be
acquired by the holders of those awards. Stock options granted to
employees and directors under the 1991 Plan were granted for terms of up to 10
years at an exercise price equal to the market value at the date of
grant. No further awards will be granted under the 1991
Plan.
In 1998,
the Board adopted the 1998 Stock Option Plan (“1998 Plan”), which was
subsequently approved by the shareholders. The 1998 Plan, as amended, authorizes
the granting of awards, the exercise of which would allow up to an aggregate of
6,375,000 shares of Andrea’s Common Stock to be acquired by the holders of those
awards. The awards can take the form of stock options, stock
appreciation rights, restricted stock, deferred stock, stock reload options or
other stock-based awards. Awards may be granted to key employees, officers,
directors and consultants. No further awards will be granted under
the 1998 Plan..
In October
2006, the Board adopted the Andrea Electronics Corporation 2006 Equity
Compensation Plan (“2006 Plan”), which was subsequently approved by the
shareholders. The 2006 Plan authorizes the granting of awards, the
exercise of which would allow up to an aggregate of 10,000,000 shares of
Andrea’s Common Stock to be acquired by the holders of those
awards. The awards can take the form of stock options, stock
appreciation rights, restricted stock or other stock-based awards. Awards may be
granted to key employees, officers, directors and consultants. At
September 30, 2008, there were 101,345 shares available for further issuance
under the 2006 Plan.
The stock
option awards granted under these plans have been granted with an exercise price
equal to the market price of the Company’s stock at the date of grant; with
vesting periods of up to four years and 10-year contractual terms.
The fair
values of each stock option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the
Black-Scholes option-pricing model that uses the weighted-average assumptions
noted in the following table. Expected volatilities are based on
implied volatilities from historical volatility of the Company’s
stock. The expected term of options granted represents the period of
time that options granted are expected to be outstanding. The
risk-free rate for periods within the contractual life of the option is based on
the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant.
The fair
values of the stock options granted for the three and nine-month periods ended

MANAGEMENT’S
DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDIDTION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS
|
Overview
Our
mission is to provide the emerging “voice interface” markets with
state-of-the-art communications products that facilitate natural language,
human/machine interfaces.
Examples
of the applications and interfaces for which Andrea DSP Microphone and Audio
Software Products and Andrea Anti-Noise Products provide benefit include:
Internet and other computer-based speech; telephony communications; multi-point
conferencing; speech recognition; multimedia; multi-player Internet and CD ROM
interactive games; and other applications and interfaces that incorporate
natural language processing. We believe that end users of these applications and
interfaces will require high quality microphone and earphone products that
enhance voice transmission, particularly in noisy environments, for use with
personal computers, mobile personal computing devises, cellular and other
wireless communication devices and automotive communication systems. Our Andrea
DSP Microphone and Audio Software Products use “far-field” digital signal
processing technology to provide high quality transmission of voice where the
user is at a distance from the microphone. High quality audio communication
technologies will be required for emerging far-field voice applications, ranging
from continuous speech dictation, to Internet telephony and multiparty video
teleconferencing and collaboration, to natural language-driven interfaces for
automobiles, home and office automation and other machines and devices into
which voice-controlled microprocessors are expected to be introduced during the
next several years.
We
outsource to Asia high volume assembly for most of our products from purchased
components. We assemble some low volume Andrea DSP Microphone and
Audio Software Products from purchased components. As sales of any particular
Andrea DSP Microphone and Audio Software Product increases, assembly operations
are transferred to a subcontractor in Asia.
Our
Critical Accounting Policies
Our
unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the notes to our
unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain information that
is pertinent to management's discussion and analysis. The preparation
of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. Management bases
its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are
believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the
basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities
that are not readily apparent from other sources. On a continual
basis, management reviews its estimates utilizing currently available
information, changes in facts and circumstances, historical experience and
reasonable assumptions. After such reviews, and if deemed
appropriate, those estimates are adjusted accordingly. Actual results
may vary from these estimates and assumptions under different and/or future
circumstances. Our significant accounting policies are described in
Note 2 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Annual
Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2007. A
discussion of our critical accounting policies and estimates are included in
Management’s Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation in our Annual Report
on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2007. Management has discussed
the development and selection of these policies with the Audit Committee of the
Company’s Board of Directors, and the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors
has reviewed the Company’s disclosures of these policies. There have
been no material changes to the critical accounting policies or estimates
reported in the Management’s Discussion and Analysis section of the 10-KSB for
the year ended December 31, 2007 as filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission.
Cautionary
Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This
report contains forward-looking statements that are based on assumptions and may
describe future plans, strategies and expectations of the
Company. These forward-looking statements are generally identified by
use of the words “believe”, “expect”, “intend”, “anticipate”, “estimate”,
“project” or similar expressions. The Company’s ability to predict
results or the actual effect of future plans or strategies is inherently
uncertain. Factors which could have a material adverse effect on the operations
of the Company and its subsidiaries include, but are not limited to, changes in
economic, competitive, governmental, technological and other factors that may
affect our business and prospects. Additional factors are discussed
below under “Risk Factors” and in Part II, “Item 6. Management’s Discussion and
Analysis or Plan of Operation—Risk Factors” in the Company’s Annual
Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2007. These
risks and uncertainties should be considered in evaluating forward-looking
statements and undue reliance should not be placed on such
statements. Except as required by applicable law or regulation, the
Company does not undertake, and specifically disclaims any obligation, to
release publicly the result of any revisions that may be made to any
forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of
the statements or to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated
events.
16
Risk
Factors
Our
operating results are subject to significant fluctuation, period-to-period
comparisons of our operating results may not necessarily be meaningful and you
should not rely on them as indications of our future performance.
Our
results of operations have historically been and are subject to continued
substantial annual and quarterly fluctuations. The causes of these fluctuations
include, among other things:
|
–
|
the
volume of sales of our products under our collaborative marketing
arrangements;
|
|
–
|
the
cost of development of our
products;
|
|
–
|
the
mix of products we sell;
|
|
–
|
the
mix of distribution channels we
use;
|
|
–
|
the
timing of our new product releases and those of our
competitors;
|
|
–
|
fluctuations
in the computer and communications hardware and software
marketplace;
|
|
–
|
general
economic conditions.
|
We cannot
assure that the level of revenues and gross profit, if any, that we achieve in
any particular fiscal period will not be significantly lower than in other
fiscal periods. Our net revenues for the three months ended September
30, 2008 were $1,283,957 versus $1,049,915 for the three months ended September
30, 2007. Net income for the three months ended September 30, 2008
was $25,289, or $0.00 income per share on a basic and diluted basis, versus net
loss of $194,569, or $0.00 loss per share on a basic and diluted basis for the
three months ended September 30, 2008. Our revenues for the nine months ended
September 30, 2008 were $3,417,848 versus $3,624,931 for the nine months ended
September 30, 2007. Net loss for the nine months ended September 30,
2008 was $344,874 or $.01 loss per share on a basic and diluted basis, versus
net loss of $313,214, or $.01 loss per share on a basic and diluted basis for
the nine months ended September 30, 2007. We continue to explore opportunities
to grow sales in other business areas; we are also examining additional
opportunities for cost reduction, production efficiencies and further
diversification of our business. Although we have improved cash flows
by reducing overall expenses, if our revenues decline we may not continue to
generate positive cash flows and our operating results may be
affected.
If
we fail to obtain additional capital or maintain access to funds sufficient to
meet our operating needs, we may be required to significantly reduce, sell, or
refocus our operations and our business, results of operations and financial
condition could be materially and adversely effected.
In order
to be a viable entity we need to maintain and increase profitable
operations. To achieve profitable operations we need to
maintain/increase current net revenues and continue to look for ways to control
expenses. We might also need to sell additional assets or raise
capital as a means of funding continued operations. We may have to
raise capital from external sources. These sources may include
private or public financings through the issuance of debt, convertible debt or
equity, or collaborative arrangements. Such additional capital and
funding may not be available on favorable terms, if at
all. Additionally, we may only be able to obtain additional capital
or funds through arrangements that require us to relinquish rights to our
products, technologies or potential markets, in whole or in part, or result in
our sale. As a result of past few years of performance, we believe
that we have sufficient liquidity to continue our operations at least through
September 2009, provided our net revenues do not continue to decline and our
operating expenses do not continue to increase. Although we have
revised our business strategies to reduce our expenses and capital expenditures,
we cannot assure you that we will be successful in generating positive cash
flows or obtaining access to additional sources of funding in amounts necessary
to continue our operations. Failure to maintain sufficient access to
funding may also result in our inability to continue operations.
Shares
Eligible For Future Sale May Have An Adverse Effect On Market Price and Andrea
Shareholders May Experience Substantial Dilution.
Sales of a
substantial number of shares of our common stock in the public market could have
the effect of depressing the prevailing market price of our common
stock. Of the 200,000,000 shares of common stock presently
authorized, 60,406,945 were outstanding as of November 10, 2008. The number of
shares outstanding does not include an aggregate of 28,811,925 shares of common
stock that are issuable. This number of issuable common shares is
equal to approximately 48% of the 60,406,945 outstanding
shares. These issuable common shares are comprised
of: a)14,676,820 shares of our common stock reserved for issuance
upon exercise of outstanding awards granted under our 1991 Performance Equity
Plan, 1998 Stock Plan and 2006 Stock Plan; b) 101,345 shares reserved for future
grants under our 2006 Stock Plan; c) 4,103,984 shares of common stock that are
issuable upon conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock; d) 4,771,432 shares of
common stock issuable upon conversion of the Series D Preferred Stock; and e)
5,158,344 of common stock issuable upon exercise of warrants relating to the
Series D Preferred stock.
17
Changes
in economic and political conditions outside the United States could adversely
affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.
We
generate revenues to regions outside the United States, particularly in Asia.
For the three months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, net revenues to
customers outside the United States accounted for approximately 6% and 43%,
respectively, of our net revenues. For the nine months ended September 30, 2008
and 2007, net revenues to customers outside the United States accounted for
approximately 13% and 33%, respectively, of our net sales. International sales
and operations are subject to a number of risks, including:
• trade
restrictions in the form of license requirements;
• restrictions
on exports and imports and other government controls;
• changes
in tariffs and taxes;
• difficulties
in staffing and managing international operations;
• problems
in establishing and managing distributor relationships;
• general
economic conditions; and
• political
and economic instability or conflict.
To date,
we have invoiced our international revenues in U.S. dollars, and have not
engaged in any foreign exchange or hedging transactions. We may not be able to
continue to invoice all of our revenues in U.S. dollars in order to avoid
engaging in foreign exchange or hedging transactions. If we are required to
invoice any material amount of international revenues in non-U.S. currencies,
fluctuations in the value of non-U.S. currencies relative to the U.S. dollar may
adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition or
require us to incur hedging costs to counter such fluctuations.
In
addition to the risk factors set forth above and the other information set forth
in this report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in Part II,
“Item 6. Management’s
Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation—Risk Factors” in the
Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2007,
which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future
results. The risks described in this report and in our Annual Report on Form
10-KSB are not the only risks that we face. Additional risks and uncertainties
not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may
materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and/or operating
results.

18
|
(a)
|
The
significant increase of revenues of Andrea Anti-Noise Products is directly
related to an Original Equipment Manufacturer (“OEM”) customer for use
with speech recognition software and was a result of the OEM’s increased
demand for our products associated with the timing of the launch of the
OEMs updated software during the three and nine months ended September 30,
2008 as compared to the same periods in 2007. We believe that
our annual revenues for 2008 and 2009 associated with this customer will
be approximately $313,000 and $250,000,
respectively.
|
|
(b)
|
The
40% and 10% increases for the nine months and three months ended September
30, 2008, respectively, of all other Andrea Anti-Noise net product
revenues is associated with increased sales of products to educational
customers for use with their distance learning
products.
|
|
(c)
|
The
significant decreases of revenues of microphone array products to an
OEM customer for the three month and nine month periods ending September
30, 2008, relates to the decreased demand from the OEM
customer. We believe that this decrease is result of the OEM
deciding not to continue including a microphone array with all applicable
product models. The revenues in 2007 were a result of the OEM’s
introduction of the OEM’s product and the OEM customers’ need to supply
all of its customers for the initial launch.
|
|
(d)
|
The
8% and 14% decrease in all other Andrea DSP Microphone and Audio product
revenues for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2008,
respectively, are a result of a decreased demand for our in-vehicle auto
array. We believe the decline is resulting to the decline of
government funding for these types of
products.
|
|
(e)
|
The
majority of the increase in licensing revenues for the three and nine
month periods ended September 30, 2008 is a result of licensing revenue
from two customer in the PC Audio market. The increase for the
three month period was a result of these customers launch of PC’s
utilizing Intel’s new platform. The increase for the nine-month
period is a result of one licensing customer’s initial implementation of
our technology. We expect our licensing revenues for 2008 and
2009 to be approximately
$1,100,000.

30, 2008 decreased to 41% from 54% for the three months ended September 30,

cost of revenues as a percentage of net revenues for the nine months ended
September 30, 2008 for Andrea DSP Microphone and Audio Software Products is 19%
compared to 43% for the nine months ended September 30, 2007. The changes are
primarily the result of the changes in revenue as described under “Net Revenues”
above. Specifically the increase in cost of revenues as a percentage
of revenues for the Andrea Anti-Noise Products is a result of high volume low
margin sales to an OEM customer. The decrease in cost of revenues as
a percentage of revenues for the Andrea DSP Microphone and Audio Software is the
result of the increase in license revenues partially offset by the decrease in
the revenues of high volume low margin microphone array products to an OEM
customer.
Research and
Development
Research
and development expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2008 increased
3% to $179,062 from $173,895 for the three months ended September 30,
2007. This small increase primarily relates to increases in
employee related benefit costs. For the three months ended September
30, 2008, the increase in research and development expenses reflects a 6%
decrease in our Andrea DSP Microphone and Audio Software Technology efforts to
$117,670, or 66% of total research and development expenses and a 25% increase
in our Andrea Anti-Noise Headset Product efforts to $61,392, or 34% of total
research and development expenses. Research and development expenses for
the nine months ended September 30, 2008 increased 11% to $557,807 from $502,755
for the nine months ended September 30, 2007. This increase primarily
relates to increases in employee compensation and related benefit
costs. For the nine months ended September 30, 2008, the increase in
research and development expenses reflects a 4% increase in our Andrea DSP
Microphone and Audio Software Technology efforts to $376,240, or 67% of total
research and development expenses and a 29% increase in our Andrea Anti-Noise
Headset Product efforts to $181,567, or 33% of total research and development
expenses. With respect to DSP Microphone and Audio Software
technologies, research efforts are primarily focused on the pursuit of
commercializing a natural language-driven human/machine interface by developing
optimal far-field microphone solutions for various voice-driven interfaces,
incorporating Andrea’s digital super directional array microphone technology,
and certain other related technologies such as noise suppression and stereo
acoustic echo cancellation. We believe that continued research and
development spending should provide Andrea with a competitive
advantage.
General, Administrative and
Selling Expenses
General,
administrative and selling expenses increased approximately 9% to $555,326 for
the three months ended September 30, 2008 from $507,503 for the three
months ended September 30, 2007. For the three months ended September
30, 2008, the increase reflects a less than 1% increase in our Andrea DSP
Microphone and Audio Software Technology efforts to $298,964, or 54% of total
general, administrative and selling expenses and a 23% increase in our Andrea
Anti-Noise Headset Product efforts to $256,362, or 46% of total general,
administrative and selling expenses. General, administrative and selling
expenses increased approximately 8% to $1,721,773 for the nine months ended
September 30, 2008 from $1,587,335 for the nine months ended September 30,
2007. For the nine months ended September 30, 2008, the increase
reflects an 6% increase in our Andrea DSP Microphone and Audio Software
Technology efforts to $980,414, or 57% of total general, administrative and
selling expenses and a 12% increase in our Andrea Anti-Noise Headset Product
efforts to $741,359, or 43% of total general, administrative and selling
expenses. These increases relate to increases in sales and marketing
efforts as well as to increases in employee compensation and related benefit
costs.

Interest income,
net
Interest
income, net for the three months ended September 30, 2008 was $2,031 compared to
$3,967 for the three months ended September 30, 2007. Interest income, net for
the nine months ended September 30, 2008 was $6,602 compared to $4,371 for the
nine months ended September 30, 2007.
Provision for Income
Taxes
The
provision for income taxes is a result of certain licensing revenues that are
subject to withholding of income tax as mandated by the foreign jurisdiction in
which the revenues are earned. Amounts are based on net revenues and
are therefore subject to change.
Net income
(loss)
Net income
for the three months ended September 30, 2008 was $25,289 compared to a net loss
of $194,569 for the three months ended September 30, 2007. Net loss for the
nine months ended September 30, 2008 was $344,874 compared to a net loss of
$313,214 for the nine months ended September 30, 2007. The net income
(loss) for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2008 and the net
loss for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2007 principally
reflects the factors described above.
Off-Balance Sheet
Arrangements
The
Company has no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely
to have a current or future effect on its financial condition, changes in
financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity,
capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to
investors.
Liquidity
And Capital Resources
Andrea’s
principal sources of funds are and are expected to continue to be gross cash
flows from operations. At September 30, 2008, we had cash and cash
equivalents of $1,156,518 compared with $811,403 at December 31,
2007. The balance of cash and cash equivalents at September 30, 2008
is primarily a result of our cash provided from operations during the nine
months ended September 30, 2008.
Working
capital balance at September 30, 2008 was $1,993,116 compared to a working
capital balance of $1,837,521 at December 31, 2007. The increase in
working capital reflects an increase in total current assets of $385,049 coupled
with an increase in total current liabilities of $229,454. The increase in total
current assets reflects an increase in cash and cash equivalents of $345,115, a
decrease in accounts receivable of $267,379, an increase in inventory of
$293,581, and an increase in prepaid expenses and other current assets of
$13,372. The increase in total current liabilities reflects an
increase in trade accounts payable of $165,382, and an increase of $64,072 in
other current liabilities. The increase in cash and cash equivalents of $345,115
reflects $415,879 of net cash provided by operating activities, and $70,764 of
net cash used in investing activities.
The cash
provided by operating activities of $415,879, excluding non-cash charges for the
quarter ended September 30, 2008, is attributable to a $267,379 decrease in
accounts receivable, a $320,103 increase in inventory, a $13,732 increase in
prepaid expenses and other current assets, a $165,382 increase in accounts
payable, and a $64,072 increase in other current liabilities. The
changes in receivables, inventory and accounts payable primarily reflect
differences in the timing related to both the payments for and the acquisition
of inventory as well as for other services in connection with ongoing efforts
related to Andrea’s various product lines.
The cash
used by investing activities of $70,764 reflects an increase in property and
equipment of $35,512 and an increase in patents and trademarks of
$35,252. The increase in property and equipment reflects capital
expenditures associated with computer purchases and tooling for some of new
products. The increase in patents and trademarks reflects capital
expenditures associated with our intellectual property.
We plan to
continue to improve our cash flows during 2008 by aggressively pursuing
additional licensing opportunities related to our Andrea DSP Audio Software and
increasing our Andrea Anti-Noise Headset Products through the introduction of
refreshed product line scheduled to be introduced in the second half of 2008 as
well as the increased efforts we are putting into our sales and marketing
efforts. However, there can be no assurance that we will be able to
successfully execute the aforementioned plans. As of November 10,
2008, Andrea has approximately $1,200,000 of cash and cash
equivalents. We believe that we have sufficient liquidity available
to continue in operation through at least September 2009. To the
extent that we do not generate sufficient cash flows from our operations in the
next twelve months, additional financing might be required. Although
we have improved cash flows by reducing overall expenses, if our revenues
decline, these reductions may impede our ability to be cash flow positive and
our net income or loss may be disproportionately affected. We have no
commitment for additional financing and may experience difficulty in obtaining
additional financing on favorable terms, if at all. Any financing we
obtain may contain covenants that restrict our freedom to operate our business
or may have rights, preferences or privileges senior to our common stock and may
dilute our current shareholders’ ownership interest in Andrea. We cannot assure
that demand will continue for any of our products, including future products
related to our Andrea DSP Microphone and Audio Software technologies, or, that
if such demand does exist, that we will be able to obtain the necessary working
capital to increase production and provide marketing resources to meet such
demand on favorable terms, or at all.

4. CONTROLS
AND PROCEDURES
Andrea’s
management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial
officer, have evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s “disclosure controls
and procedures,” as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, (the “Exchange Act”). Based upon
their evaluation, the principal executive officer and principal financial
officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report,
Andrea’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective for the purpose of
ensuring that the information required to be disclosed in the reports that it
files or submits under the Exchange Act with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the “SEC”) (1) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported
within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and (2) is
accumulated and communicated to Andrea’s management, including its principal
executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely
decisions regarding required disclosure.
Limitations on the
Effectiveness of Controls
A control
system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable,
not absolute, assurance that all control issues and instance of fraud, if any,
within a company have been detected. Andrea’s disclosure controls and
procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving its
objectives.
There have
been no changes in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting
during the period covered by this Quarterly Report that have materially
affected, or are reasonable likely to materially affect the Company’s internal
controls over financial reporting.

to renewal as approved by the Compensation Committee of the Board of
Directors. Pursuant to his employment agreement, Mr. Andrea will
receive an annual base salary of $312,500 through July 31, 2009 and for the
period of August 1, 2009 through July 31, 2010, Mr. Andrea’s will receive an

in the sole discretion of the Compensation Committee. On August 8, 2008, the
Board granted Mr. Andrea 2,000,000 stock options and 1,000,000 stock options
with an aggregate fair value of $120,000 (fair value was estimated using the

three equal annual installments over a three year period commencing August 1,
2009. The 1,000,000 grant vests in three equal annual installments
over a three year period commencing August 1, 2010. All stock options
granted have an exercise price of $0.04 per share, which was fair market value
at the date of grant, and a term of 10 years. Pursuant to the
employment agreement and subject to the approval of the Board, the Compensation
Committee will recommend a second grant of 1,000,000 stock options as soon as
practical after August 1, 2009, with an exercise price equal to the per share

appreciation rights, if any, will become immediately exercisable in the event of
a change in control. Upon the occurrence of a change in control followed by Ms.
