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 (“GAAP”) 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 GAAP for complete financial statements.  In addition, the December 31, 2008 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 fiscal year ended December 31, 2008 included in the Company's Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008, filed on March 31, 2009.  The accounting policies used in preparing these unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements are consistent with those described in the December 31, 2008 audited consolidated financial statements.

Management's Liquidity Plans - As of March 31, 2009, Andrea had working capital of $2,065,160 and cash on hand of $1,681,220.  Andrea’s loss from operations was $285,099 for the three months ended March 31, 2009.  Andrea plans to continue to improve its cash flows during 2009 by aggressively pursuing additional licensing opportunities related to Andrea DSP Audio Software and increasing its Andrea Anti-Noise Headset Products sales through sales of a refreshed product line, which the Company 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 May 11, 2009, Andrea has approximately $1,600,000 of cash. Management projects that Andrea has sufficient liquidity available to operate through at least March 2010.  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 generated cash flows from operations.  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

Loss Per Share - Basic loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.  Diluted loss per share adjusts basic 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 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:

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 its 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.  At March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008, Andrea concluded that the Andrea DSP Microphone and Audio Software Products business segment was not required to be tested for recoverability.

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.  Amortization expense was $118,888 and $118,314 for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, 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 both of the guidelines set forth in 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 been 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 2008.  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 March 31, 2009, 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. The adoption of this pronouncement did not have any material effects on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

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. The adoption of this pronouncement did not have any material effects on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

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 was effective for the Company beginning on January 1, 2009. The adoption of this statement did not impact the Company’s current disclosures.

In June 2008, the FASB ratified EITF No. 07-5, "Determining Whether an Instrument (or an Embedded Feature) is Indexed to an Entity's Own Stock" ("EITF 07-5"). EITF 07-5 provides that an entity should use a two-step approach to evaluate whether an equity-linked financial instrument (or embedded feature) is indexed to its own stock, including evaluating the instrument's contingent exercise and settlement provisions. EITF 07-5 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. Early application is not permitted.  The adoption of this statement did not have an effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, liquidity, or results of operations.

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 GAAP, 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.

Note 3. Series C Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock

On October 10, 2000, Andrea issued and sold in a private placement $7,500,000 of Series C Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series C Preferred Stock”).  Each of these shares of Series C Preferred Stock had a stated value of $10,000 plus $1,671 increase in the stated value, which sum is convertible into Common Stock at a conversion price of $0.2551.  On February 17, 2004, Andrea announced that it had entered into an Exchange and Termination Agreement and an Acknowledgment and Waiver Agreement, which eliminated the dividend of 5% per annum on the stated value.  The additional amount of $1,671 represents the 5% per annum from October 10, 2000 through February 17, 2004.  The shares of Series C Preferred Stock are subject to antidilution provisions, which are triggered in the event of certain stock splits, recapitalizations, or other dilutive transactions.  In addition, issuances of common stock at a price below the conversion price then in effect (currently $0.2551), or the issuance of warrants, options, rights, or convertible securities which have an exercise price or conversion price less than that conversion price, other than for certain previously outstanding securities and certain “excluded securities” (as defined in the certificate of amendment), require the adjustment of the conversion price to that lower price at which shares of common stock have been issued or may be acquired.  In the event that Andrea issues securities in the future which have a conversion price or exercise price which varies with the market price and the terms of such variable price are more favorable than the conversion price in the Series C Preferred Stock, the purchasers may elect to substitute the more favorable variable price when making conversions of the Series C Preferred Stock.

In accordance with EITF 07-5, Andrea evaluated the Series C Preferred Stock and concluded that it is not indexed to the Company’s stock because of the embedded adjustment feature described above.  Accordingly, under the provisions of SFAS 133, Andrea evaluated the Series C Preferred Stock embedded adjustment feature.  The Company has concluded that the embedded adjustment feature would be classified in stockholders’ equity if it were a freestanding instrument as the Series C Preferred Stock is more akin to equity and as such it should not be bifurcated from the Series C instrument and accounted for separately.

As of March 31, 2009, there were 89.701477 shares of Series C Preferred Stock outstanding, which were convertible into 4,103,984 shares of Common Stock and remaining accrued dividends of $149,912.

Note 4. Series D Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock

On February 17, 2004, Andrea entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (including a Registration Rights Agreement) with certain holders of the Series C Preferred Stock and other investors (collectively, the “Buyers”) pursuant to which the Buyers agreed to invest a total of $2,500,000.  In connection with this agreement, on February 23, 2004, the Buyers purchased, for a purchase price of $1,250,000, an aggregate of 1,250,000 shares of a new class of preferred stock, the Series D Preferred Stock, convertible into 5,000,000 shares of Common Stock (an effective conversion price of $0.25 per share) and Common Stock warrants exercisable for an aggregate of 2,500,000 shares of Common Stock.  These warrants were exercisable at any time after August 17, 2004. at an exercise price of $0.38 per share.  On February 23, 2009, these warrants expired without being exercised.

In addition, on June 4, 2004, the Buyers purchased for an additional $1,250,000, an additional 1,250,000 shares of Series D Preferred Stock convertible into 5,000,000 shares of Common Stock (an effective conversion price of $0.25 per share) and Common Stock warrants exercisable for an aggregate of 2,500,000 shares of Common Stock.  The warrants are exercisable at any time after December 4, 2004 and before June 4, 2009 at an exercise price of $0.17 per share.

Knightsbridge Capital served as a financial advisor to Andrea in connection with the aforementioned transactions and the initial issuance of the Series D Preferred Stock and related warrants.  In connection with these transactions, Andrea agreed to pay Knightsbridge Capital $350,000 in cash and issued warrants exercisable for an aggregate of 439,594 shares of Common Stock. On February 23, 2009, 377,094 of these warrants expired without being exercised.  The remaining 62,500 of these warrants are exercisable at any time after December 4, 2004 and before June 4, 2009 at an exercise price of $0.17 per share.

The shares of Series D Preferred Stock are also subject to antidilution provisions, which are triggered in the event of certain stock splits, recapitalizations, or other dilutive transactions. In addition, issuances of common stock at a price below the conversion price then in effect (currently $0.25), or the issuance of warrants, options, rights, or convertible securities which have an exercise price or conversion price less than that conversion price, other than for certain previously outstanding securities and certain “excluded securities” (as defined in the certificate of amendment), require the adjustment of the conversion price to that lower price at which shares of common stock have been issued or may be acquired. In the event that Andrea issues securities in the future which have a conversion price or exercise price which varies with the market price and the terms of such variable price are more favorable than the conversion price in the Series D Preferred Stock, the purchasers may elect to substitute the more favorable variable price when making conversions of the Series D Preferred Stock.  The Company is required to maintain an effective registration statement from the time of issuance until the earlier of (i) the date as of which the investors may sell all of the securities for the common stock issuable under the Series D Preferred Stock covered by the registration statement without restriction under SEC rules or (ii) the date on which the investors shall have sold all the securities covered by the registration statement.  In addition, the Company is required to use its best efforts to secure the inclusion for quotation on the Over the Counter Bulletin Board for the common stock issuable under the Series D Preferred Stock and to arrange for at least two market makers to register with the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. In the event that the holder of the Series D Preferred Stock and related warrants is unable to convert these securities into Andrea Common stock the Company shall pay to each such holder of such registrable securities a Registration Delay Payment.  This payment is to be paid in cash and is equal to the product of (i) the stated value of such Preferred Shares multiplied by (ii) the product of (1) .0005 multiplied by (2) the number of days that sales cannot be made pursuant to the Registration Statement (excluding any days during that may be considered grace periods as defined by the Registration Rights Agreement).

In accordance with EITF 07-5, Andrea evaluated the Series D Preferred Stock and concluded that it is not considered to be indexed to the Company’s stock because of the embedded adjustment feature described above.  Accordingly, under the provisions of SFAS 133, Andrea evaluated the Series D Preferred Stock embedded adjustment feature.  The Company has concluded that the embedded adjustment feature would be classified in stockholders’ equity if it were a freestanding instrument as the Series D Preferred Stock is more akin to equity and as such it should not be bifurcated from the Series D instrument and accounted for separately.

Additionally, Andrea reviewed the Series D Preferred Stock warrants and concluded that they are considered to be indexed to the Company’s stock within the provisions of EITF 07-5 and are properly classified.

Through March 31, 2009, 281,250 shares of common stock have been issued as a result of exercises of the Series D Preferred Stock Warrants.  There were no Series D Preferred Stock conversions or related Warrant exercises during the three months ended March 31, 2009.

As of March 31, 2009, there were 1,050,001 shares of Series D Preferred Stock and 2,281,250 related warrants outstanding which are convertible and exercisable into 6,481,254 shares of Common Stock.

Note 5. Licensing Agreements

The Company has entered into various licensing, production and distribution agreements with manufacturers of PC and related components.  These agreements provide for revenues based on the terms of each individual agreement.  The Company's three largest licensing customers accounted for $156,053, $20,816 and $12,572 of revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and $102,376, $20,727 and $4,200 of revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2008.

Employment Agreements

In November 2008, the Company entered into an employment agreement with the 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 will receive an annual base salary of $325,000.  The employment agreement provides for quarterly bonuses equal to 25% of the Company’s pre-bonus net after tax quarterly earnings in excess of $25,000 for a total quarterly bonus amount not 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 of Directors 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 Black-Scholes option-pricing model).  The 2,000,000 grant vests in 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 the fair market value of the Company’s common stock at the date of grant, and a term of 10 years.  Pursuant to the employment agreement and subject to the approval of the Board of Directors, 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 fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant.  Mr. Andrea is also entitled to a change in control payment equal to two times his salary with continuation of health and medical benefits for two years in the event of a change in control, as defined in the agreement.  At March 31, 2009, the future minimum cash commitments under this agreement aggregate $429,167.

In November 1999, as amended August 2008, the Company entered into a change in control agreement with the Chief Financial Officer, Corisa L. Guiffre.  This agreement provides for a change in control payment equal to three times her average annual compensation for the five preceding taxable years, with continuation of health and medical benefits for three years in the event of a change in control of the Company, as defined in the agreement, and subsequent termination of employment other than for cause.

Legal Proceedings

Andrea is involved in routine litigation incidental to the normal course of business. While it is not feasible to predict or determine the final outcome of claims, Andrea believes the resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on Andrea’s financial position, results of operations or liquidity.

Note 7. Stock Plans and Stock Based Compensation

In 1991, the Board of Directors of Andrea adopted the 1991 Performance Equity Plan (“1991 Plan”), which was approved subsequently 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 of Directors 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 of Directors 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 March, 31, 2009, 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.

There were no options granted during the three months ended March 31, 2009 or 2008.

Pursuant to Andrea’s compensation policy for outside directors, on August 8, 2008 and September 12, 2007, Andrea granted 500,000 shares of Common Stock with a fair market value of $0.04 and 400,000 shares of Common Stock with a fair market value of $0.05, respectively.  These stock grants were fully vested on the date of grant.  Compensation expense related to these awards was $5,001 and $5,001 for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

Note 8. Segment Information

Andrea follows the provisions of SFAS No. 131, “Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information.” Reportable operating segments are determined based on Andrea’s management approach. The management approach, as defined by SFAS No. 131, is based on the way that the chief operating decision-maker organizes the segments within an enterprise for making operating decisions and assessing performance. While Andrea’s results of operations are primarily reviewed on a consolidated basis, the chief operating decision-maker also manages the enterprise in two segments: (i) Andrea DSP Microphone and Audio Software Products and (ii) Andrea Anti-Noise Products.  Andrea DSP Microphone and Audio Software Products primarily include products based on the use of some, or all, of the following technologies: Andrea Digital Super Directional Array microphone technology (DSDA), Andrea Direction Finding and Tracking Array microphone technology (DFTA), Andrea PureAudio noise filtering technology, and Andrea EchoStop, an advanced acoustic echo cancellation technology.  Andrea Anti-Noise Products include noise cancellation and active noise cancellation computer headset products and related computer peripheral products.

ITEM 2.
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 devices, 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 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-K for the year ended December 31, 2008.  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-K for the year ended December 31, 2008. 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 10K for the year ended December 31, 2008 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 I, “Item 1A – Risk Factors” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008.  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.

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 March 31, 2009 were $821,580 versus $926,640 for the three months ended March 31, 2008.  Net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2009 was $283,864, or $0.00 loss per share on a basic and diluted basis, and $361,272, or $0.01 per share on a basic and diluted basis for the three months ended March 31, 2008. 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 continue to decline we may not continue to generate positive cash flows and our net income or loss 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 continue to achieve profitable operations we need to maintain or 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.  In recent years, we have sustained significant operating losses.  We may have to raise additional 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 the past few years of performance, we believe that we have sufficient liquidity to continue our operations at least through March 2010, provided our net revenues do not decline and our operating expenses do not 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, 60,978,373 were outstanding as of May 11, 2009. The number of shares outstanding does not include an aggregate of 25,223,403 shares of common stock that are issuable.  This number of issuable common shares is equal to approximately 41% of the 60,978,373 outstanding shares.  These issuable common shares are comprised of:  a) 14,536,820 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) 4,200,004 shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the Series D Preferred Stock; and e) 2,281,250 of common stock issuable upon exercise of warrants relating to the Series D Preferred stock.

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 I, “Item 1A – Risk Factors” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008, 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-K 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.

(a)  
The slight increase of sales of Andrea Anti-Noise Products is directly related to increased purchases by an OEM customer for use with speech recognition software during the three month ended March 31, 2009 as compared to the same period in 2008.  We believe that our annual revenues for 2009 associated with this customer will be approximately $250,000.
 
(b)  
The significant decreases of revenues of microphone array products to an OEM customer relates to the decreased demand from the OEM customer.  We believe that this decrease is the result of the OEM deciding not to continue including a microphone array with all applicable product models.  We do not expect any revenues from the OEM for this product in 2009.
 
(c)  
The decrease in consulting revenue relates to an OEM customer selling the business line for which the consulting revenue related.
 
(d)  
The 19% decrease in all other Andrea DSP Microphone and Audio product revenues for the three month period ended March 31, 2009 is a result of timing of shipments related to this product line.
 
(e)  
The majority of the increase in licensing revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2009 is a result of one of our OEM licensing partner’s initial launch of one of our licensed products in their product line offset in part by a second of our OEM licensing partners selling the business line.  Although we have entered into a new license agreement with this second partner’s successor, we have not realized revenues as of March 31, 2009 related to this new license agreement.  Additionally, we do not expect the revenues to remain at the level of the predecessor.
 
Cost of Revenues

Cost of revenues as a percentage of net revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2009 decreased to 39% from 52% for the three months ended March 31, 2008.  The cost of revenues as a percentage of net revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2009 for Andrea Anti-Noise Products is 51% compared to 63% for the three months ended March 31, 2008.  The cost of revenues as a percentage of net revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2009 for Andrea DSP Microphone and Audio Software Products is 16% compared to 38% for the three months ended March 31, 2008.  The decrease for Andrea Anti-Noise Products is a result of the mix of products sold.  The products sold during the three months ended March 31, 2009 were sold at a higher profit margin then those products during the three months ended March 31, 2008.  The decrease for Andrea DSP Microphone and Audio Software Products is a result of the decreased sales of array microphone products to an OEM customer as well as an increase in licensing revenues.
 
17


Research and Development

Research and development expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2009 decreased 23% to $149,513 from $193,404 for the three months ended March 31, 2008.  This decrease primarily relates to decreases in employee compensation and related benefit costs.  For the three months ended March 31, 2009, the decrease in research and development expenses reflects a 38% decrease in our Andrea DSP Microphone and Audio Software Technology efforts to $82,489, or 55% of total research and development expenses, partially offset by a 12% increase in our Andrea Anti-Noise Headset Product efforts to $67,024, or 45% 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 4% to $634,421 for the three months ended March 31, 2009 from $610,174 for the three months ended March 31, 2008.  This increase is principally related to the employment agreement entered into with the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer in August 2008 as well as the hire of an employee dedicated to the Company’s sales and marketing efforts.  For the three months ended March 31, 2009, the increase reflects a 30% increase in our Andrea Anti-Noise Headset Product efforts to $293,657, or 46% of total general, administrative and selling expenses offset in part by a 3% decrease in our Andrea DSP Microphone and Audio Software Technology efforts to $340,764, or 54% of total general, administrative and selling expenses.

Interest Income, net

Other income, net, for the three months ended March 31, 2009 was $2,492 compared to $2,874 for the three months ended March 31, 2008.

Provision for Income Taxes

The provision for income taxes the three months ended March 31, 2009 was $1,257 compared to a provision for income taxes of $2,073 for the three months ended March 31, 2008.  The decrease is a result of a decrease of certain licensing revenues that are subject to withholding of income tax as mandated by the foreign jurisdiction in which the revenues are earned.

Net Loss

Net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2009 was $283,864 compared to $361,272 for the three months ended March 31, 2008.  The net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2009 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 be gross cash flows from operations.  At March 31, 2009, we had cash of $1,681,220 compared with $1,006,951 at December 31, 2008.  The cash balance at March 31, 2009 is primarily a result of our cash provided from operations.

Working capital balance at March 31, 2009 was $2,065,160 compared to a working capital balance of $2,196,689 at December 31, 2008.  The decrease in working capital reflects an increase in total current assets of $45,247 coupled with an increase in total current liabilities of $176,776.  The increase in total current assets reflects an increase in cash of $674,269, a decrease in accounts receivable of $571,461, a decrease in inventory of $167,480, an increase in short term customer deposit of $150,000 and a decrease in prepaid expenses and other current assets of $40,081.  The significant decrease in accounts receivable is a result of the payment of license revenues.  The increase in short term customer deposit and short term deferred revenue is related to a deposit for a product for one of our customers.  The increase in total current liabilities reflects an increase in trade accounts payable of $8,443, an increase in short-term deferred revenue of $150,000 and an increase of $18,333 in other current liabilities. The increase in cash of $674,269 reflects $709,465 of net cash provided by operating activities, and $35,196 of net cash used in investing activities.
 
18


The cash provided by operating activities of $709,465, excluding non-cash charges for the quarter ended March 31, 2009, is attributable to a $571,461 decrease in accounts receivable, a $168,859 decrease in inventory, a $150,000 increase in short term customer deposit, a $40,081 decrease in prepaid expenses and other current assets, a $8,443 increase in accounts payable, a $150,000 increase in short-term deferred revenue and a $18,333 increase in other current and long-term liabilities.  The changes in receivables, inventory, prepaid expenses 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 in investing activities of $35,196 reflects $21,619 in purchases of property and equipment and $13,577 of payments related to patents and trademarks.  The increase in property and equipment reflects capital expenditures associated with information technology purchases as well as molds associated with our Andrea Anti-Noise Headset Products.  The increase in patents and trademarks reflects capital expenditures associated with our intellectual property.

We plan to continue to improve our cash flows in 2009 by aggressively pursuing additional licensing opportunities related to our Andrea DSP Audio Software and increasing the sales of our Andrea Anti-Noise Headset Products through the introduction of a refreshed product line introduced in the latter part 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 May 11, 2009, Andrea has approximately $1,600,000 of cash deposits.  We believe that we have sufficient liquidity available to continue in operation through at least March 2010.  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.
