NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
THREE
MONTHS ENDED MAY 31, 2012 AND 2011
NOTE 1 - DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Description of Business
CalAmp Corp. ("CalAmp" or the "Company") develops and markets wireless technology solutions that deliver data, voice and video for critical networked communication and other applications. The Company's two business segments are Wireless DataCom, which serves commercial, industrial and government customers, and Satellite, which focuses on the North American Direct Broadcast Satellite market.
The Company uses a 52-53 week fiscal year ending on the Saturday closest to February 28, which for fiscal 2012 fell on February 25, 2012. Fiscal 2013, a 53-week year, will end on March 2, 2013. The actual interim periods ended on May 26, 2012 and May 28, 2011, both consisting of 13 weeks. In the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements, the 2012 fiscal year end is shown as February 28 and the interim period end for both years is shown as May 31 for clarity of presentation.
Certain notes and other information are condensed or omitted from the interim financial statements presented in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Therefore, these financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 26, 2012.
In the opinion of the Company's management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary to present fairly the Company's financial position at May 31, 2012 and its results of operations for the three months ended May 31, 2012 and 2011. The results of operations for such periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full fiscal year.
All significant intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated in consolidation.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue from product sales when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the sales price is fixed or determinable and collection of the sales price is reasonably assured. Generally, these criteria are met at the time product is shipped, except for shipments made on the basis of "FOB Destination" terms, in which case title transfers to the customer and the revenue is recorded by the Company when the shipment reaches the customer. Customers do not have rights of return except for defective products returned during the warranty period.
The Company defers the recognition of revenues for products that are sold with data communication services because the services are essential to the functionality of the products, and accordingly, the associated product costs are recorded as deferred costs. The deferred product revenue and deferred product cost amounts are recognized on a straight-line basis over the minimum contractual service period of one year. Revenues from renewals of data communication services after the initial one year term are recognized as the services are provided. When customers prepay data communication service renewals, such amounts are recorded as deferred revenues and are recognized over the renewal term.
The Company also undertakes projects that include the design and development of communication systems used in the public safety and transportation sectors that are customized to customers' specifications or that involve fixed site construction. Sales under such contracts are recorded under the percentage-of-completion method. Costs and estimated revenues are recorded as work is performed based on the percentage that incurred costs bear to estimated total costs utilizing the most recent estimates of costs. If the current contract estimate indicates a loss, provision is made for the total anticipated loss in the current period. Costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts arise when contract revenues have been recognized on the percentage-of-completion method in advance of when the amounts can be invoiced to the customers under the terms of the contracts. Such amounts are billable to the customers upon various measures of performance, including achievement of certain milestones, completion of specified units, or completion of a contract. Costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts are included in prepaid expenses and other current assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

Disclosures About Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instrument for which it is practicable to estimate:
Cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable - The carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value given the short maturity of these instruments.
Debt - The estimated fair value of the Company's bank debt approximates the carrying value of such debt because the interest rate is variable and is market-based.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-05, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Presentation of Comprehensive Income. This guidance requires companies to present the components of net income and other comprehensive income either as one continuous statement or as two consecutive statements. It eliminates the option to present components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of changes in stockholders' equity. The standard does not change the items which must be reported in other comprehensive income, how such items are measured or when they must be reclassified to net income. The Company adopted this pronouncement in this first quarter ended May 31, 2012. The Company had no components of other comprehensive income during the quarters ended May 31, 2012 and May 31, 2011.
NOTE 2 SUPPLY AGREEMENT AND ACQUISITION
On May 7, 2012, the Company entered into a five-year supply agreement (the Supply Agreement) to provide at least $25 million of fleet tracking products to Navman Wireless, a privately held company (Navman). In conjunction with the Supply Agreement, the Company also entered into an asset purchase agreement on May 7, 2012 with Navman (the Asset Purchase Agreement) and established a research and development center in Auckland, New Zealand with an initial staff of 14 employees who transferred from Navman.
The purchase price for the products and technologies acquired from Navman pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement was $4,902,000, comprised of $1,000,000 paid in cash at closing, a non-interest bearing note payable with a present value of $3,080,000 at the time of issuance, and the present value of estimated contingent royalties consideration of $822,000 for sales by CalAmp during the first three years of certain products acquired from Navman under the Asset Purchase Agreement. The note payable has a face value of $4,000,000, and is payable in the form of a 15% rebate on certain products sold by the Company to Navman under the Supply Agreement.
The Company is accounting for this acquisition under FASB ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations, which provides guidance on the accounting and reporting for transactions that represent business combinations to be accounted for under the acquisition method. This method requires that, among other things, assets acquired and liabilities assumed be recorded at their fair values as of the acquisition date. The excess of the consideration transferred over those fair values is recorded as goodwill.
6
The Company has not yet obtained all information required to complete the purchase price allocation related to this acquisition. The final allocation will be completed later in the current fiscal year. Following is a preliminary purchase price allocation (in thousands):
Purchase Price | $ | 4,902 | ||||||
Fair value of net assets acquired: | ||||||||
Property and equipment | $ | 200 | ||||||

Assumed liablities | (10 | ) | ||||||
Total fair value of net assets acquired | 3,790 | |||||||
Goodwill | $ | 1,112 |
The goodwill arising from this transaction is deductible for income tax purposes, and is assigned to the Companys Wireless DataCom segment. This goodwill is primarily attributable to the benefit of having an assembled workforce in New Zealand and the value that the Company expects to receive beyond the five year term of the Supply Agreement.

NOTE 5 - FINANCING ARRANGEMENTS
Bank Credit Facility
The Company has a credit facility with Square 1 Bank comprised of a term loan and a revolver that provides for aggregate borrowings of up to $12 million. The maturity date of the credit facility is August 15, 2014. The revolver borrowing limit is equal to the lesser of (a) $12 million minus the term loan principal outstanding at any point in time, or (b) 85% of eligible accounts receivable. At May 31, 2012, the Company had no outstanding borrowings under the revolver, and the amount available to borrow at that date amounted to $9,200,000. The term loan, which had an outstanding principal balance of $2,800,000 at May 31, 2012, is repayable at the rate of $100,000 per month. All borrowings under the credit facility bear interest at Square 1 Bank's prime rate plus 1.0% per annum, and are secured by substantially all assets of the Company. At May 31, 2012, the effective interest rate on the revolver and bank term loan was 4.25%. Interest on borrowings under the credit facility is payable monthly.
The bank credit facility contains a financial covenant that requires the Company to maintain minimum levels of earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation, amortization and other noncash charges (commonly known as EBITDA or adjusted EBITDA) on a rolling six-month basis and a minimum debt coverage ratio. At May 31, 2012, the Company was in compliance with its debt covenants under the credit facility. The credit facility also provides for a number of customary events of default, including a provision that a material adverse change constitutes an event of default that permits the lender, at its option, to accelerate the loan. Among other provisions, the credit facility requires a lock-box and cash collateral account whereby cash remittances from the Company's customers are directed to the cash collateral account and which amounts are applied to reduce the revolving loan principal balance.
Debt
Debt is comprised of the following (in thousands):
May 31, | February 28, | ||||||||
2012 | 2012 | ||||||||
Bank term loan | $ | 2,800 | $ | 3,000 | |||||
Non-interest bearing $4,000 promissory note payable | |||||||||
to Navman, less unamortized discount of $890 | 3,110 | - | |||||||
5,910 | 3,000 | ||||||||
Less portion due within one year | (2,206 | ) | (1,100 | ) | |||||
Long-term debt | $ | 3,704 | $ | 1,900 |
The Navman note is payable in the form of a 15% rebate on certain products sold by the Company to Navman under the Supply Agreement. The unpaid balance of the Navman note would become immediately due and payable upon any termination of the Supply Agreement by the Company before the end of its five-year term (other than as a result of an uncured breach of the Supply Agreement by Navman), except that in the case of such acceleration the note balance would be subordinated to the Companys bank debt pursuant to the provisions of a debt subordination agreement. In the absence of an acceleration event, the Navman note is payable solely in the form of a rebate on products sold by CalAmp to Navman under the Supply Agreement. After all rebates have been applied to pay down the note balance, and assuming that an acceleration event has not occurred, any unpaid balance remaining on the Navman note would be forgiven at the later of May 7, 2017 or the final date to which the Supply Agreement is extended pursuant to a force majeure event.
8
Other Non-Current Liabilities
Other non-current liabilities consist of the following (in thousands):
May 31, | February 28, | ||||||
2012 | 2012 | ||||||
Deferred rent | $ | 289 | $ | 279 | |||
Deferred revenue | 786 | 724 | |||||
Contingent royalties consideration payable to Navman | 512 | - | |||||
$ | 1,587 | $ | 1,003 |
The contingent royalties consideration in the aggregate fair value amount of $830,000 at May 31, 2012 is payable to Navman at rates approximating 15% of the sales by CalAmp during the first three years of certain products acquired from Navman under the Asset Purchase Agreement.
NOTE 6 - INCOME TAXES
Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and for income tax purposes. The Company evaluates the realizability of its deferred income tax assets and a valuation allowance is provided, as necessary. In assessing this valuation allowance, the Company reviews historical and future expected operating results and other factors, including its recent cumulative earnings experience, expectations of future taxable income by taxing jurisdiction and the carryforward periods available for tax reporting purposes, to determine whether it is more likely than not that deferred tax assets are realizable.
The Company is subject to filing income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, various U.S. states, Canada, France and New Zealand. Income tax returns filed for fiscal years 2007 and earlier are not subject to examination by U.S. federal and state tax authorities. Certain income tax returns for fiscal years 2008 through 2012 remain open to examination by U.S. federal and state tax authorities. Income tax returns for fiscal years 2009 through 2012 remain open to examination by tax authorities in Canada and France. The Company believes that it has made adequate provision for all income tax uncertainties pertaining to these open tax years.
At May 31, 2012, the Company had a net deferred income tax asset balance of $11,887,000. The current portion of the deferred tax assets is $5,206,000 and the non-current portion is $6,681,000. The net deferred income tax asset balance is comprised of a gross deferred tax asset of $49.1 million and a valuation allowance of $37.2 million.
No income tax provision, other than minimum income taxes, was recorded during the quarters ended May 31, 2012 and May 31, 2011 because of the existence of net operating loss carryforwards that offset the pre-tax income.
NOTE 7 - EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution, using the treasury stock method, that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shared in the earnings of the Company. In computing diluted earnings per share, the treasury stock method assumes that outstanding options are exercised and the proceeds are used to purchase common stock at the average market price during the period. Options will have a dilutive effect under the treasury stock method only when the Company reports net income and the average market price of the common stock during the period exceeds the exercise price of the options.
9
The following is a summary of the calculation of weighted average shares used in the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share (in thousands):

Shares underlying stock options of 800,000 at May 31, 2012 and shares underlying stock options and warrants of 2,024,000 at May 31, 2011, were excluded from the calculations of diluted earnings per share for these quarters because based on the exercise prices of these derivative securities their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive under the treasury stock method.

During the three months ended May 31, 2012, the Company retained 20,694 of the 54,750 shares that vested under restricted stock and RSU awards to cover the minimum required statutory amount of employee withholding taxes.
As of May 31, 2012, there was $3.7 million of total unrecognized stock-based compensation cost related to nonvested stock options, restricted stock and RSUs that is expected to be recognized as an expense over a weighted-average remaining vesting period of 2.4 years.

Because the Company sells into markets dominated by a few large service providers, a significant percentage of consolidated revenues and consolidated accounts receivable relate to a small number of customers. One customer of the Company's Satellite business unit accounted for 27% and 36% of consolidated revenues for the three months ended May 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively, and 15% and 33% of consolidated net accounts receivable at May 31, 2012 and February 28, 2012, respectively. One customer of the Company's Wireless Datacom segment accounted for 10% of consolidated revenues for the three months ended May 31, 2012 and 15% of consolidated net accounts receivable at that date. In addition, one other customer of the Companys Wireless Datacom segment accounted for 13% of consolidated net accounts receivable at May 31, 2012.
A substantial portion of the Companys inventory is purchased from one supplier, which functions as an independent foreign procurement agent and contract manufacturer. This supplier accounted for 57% and 53% of Company's total inventory purchases in the three months ended May 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. As of May 31, 2012, this supplier accounted for 65% of the Company's total accounts payable.
Some of the Company's components, assemblies and electronic manufacturing services are purchased from sole source suppliers.
NOTE 10 - PRODUCT WARRANTIES
The Company generally warrants its products against defects over periods ranging from 3 to 24 months. An accrual for estimated future costs relating to products returned under warranty is recorded as an expense when products are shipped. At the end of each quarter, the Company adjusts its liability for warranty claims based on its actual warranty claims experience as a percentage of revenues for the preceding 12 to 24 months and also considers the impact of the known operational issues that may have a greater impact than historical trends. Activity in the accrued warranty costs liability for the three months ended May 31, 2012 and 2011 is as follows (in thousands):

The Company considers operating income (loss) to be the primary measure of profit or loss of its business segments. The amount shown for each period in the "Corporate" column above for operating income (loss) consists of corporate expenses that are not allocated to the business segments. These non-allocated corporate expenses include salaries and benefits of certain executive officers and expenses such as audit fees, investor relations, stock listing fees, director and officer liability insurance, and director fees and expenses. Corporate expenses also include stock-based compensation expense of $466,000 and $211,000 in the three months ended May 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
NOTE 13 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Legal Proceedings
From time to time as a normal consequence of doing business, various claims and litigation may be asserted or commenced against the Company. In particular, the Company in the ordinary course of business may receive claims that its products or services cause injury or infringe the intellectual property of third parties, or claims concerning contract performance. While the outcome of any such claims and litigation cannot be predicted with certainty, management does not believe that the outcome of any of such matters pending at the present time would have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations.
ITEM 2. |
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS |
The Company's discussion and analysis of its financial condition and results of operations are based upon the Company's consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that may affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues, costs and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates. The critical accounting policies listed below involve the Companys more significant accounting judgments and estimates that are used in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements. These policies are described in greater detail in Managements Discussion and Analysis (MD&A) under Part II, Item 7 of the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended February 28, 2012, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 26, 2012, and include the following areas:
- Allowance for doubtful accounts;
- Inventory write-downs;
- Product warranties;
- Deferred income tax assets and uncertain tax positions;
- Impairment assessments of purchased intangible assets and other long-lived assets;
- Stock-based compensation expense; and
- Revenue recognition.
As discussed in Note 2 to the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements, the Company is accounting for Navman Wireless Asset Purchase Agreement under FASB ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations, which provides guidance on the accounting and reporting for transactions that represent business combinations to be accounted for under the acquisition method. This method requires that, among other things, assets acquired and liabilities assumed be recorded at their fair values as of the acquisition date. The excess of the consideration transferred over those fair values is recorded as goodwill.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Overview
CalAmp Corp. ("CalAmp" or the "Company") develops and markets wireless technology solutions that deliver data, voice and video for critical networked communications and other applications.

Revenue
Wireless DataCom revenue increased by $9.6 million, or 44%, to $31.7 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2013 compared to the fiscal 2012 first quarter due primarily to increased revenue in the Companys Mobile Resource Management (MRM) business and significant revenue contribution from railroad Positive Train Control products.
Satellite revenue decreased $0.3 million, or 3%, to $12.2 million in the three months ended May 31, 2012 from $12.5 million for the same period in the previous fiscal year. The decrease in Satellite revenue was due to a product mix change.
Gross Profit and Gross Margins
Wireless DataCom gross profit increased by $3.1 million to $11.7 million in the fiscal 2013 first quarter compared to $8.6 million in the first quarter of last year primarily as a result of higher revenue. Wireless DataCom's gross margin decreased to 37.1% in the first quarter of fiscal 2013 from 39.0% in the first quarter of fiscal 2012 primarily due to MRM revenues constituting a greater proportion of the Wireless DataCom revenues in the latest quarter. MRM products tend to have lower gross profit margins than other Wireless DataCom products and services.
Satellite gross profit increased by $1.1 million in the fiscal 2013 first quarter compared to the first quarter of last year, while gross margin improved to 15.8% in the first quarter of fiscal 2013 from 6.6% in the first quarter of fiscal 2012. These improvements are primarily the result of the Companys transition to a variable cost operating model in which substantially all of the satellite products are now manufactured by off-shore subcontractors.
See also Note 12 to the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements for additional operating data by business segment.
Operating Expenses
Consolidated research and development expense was relatively unchanged from $3,104,000 in the first quarter of last year to $3,172,000 this year.
Consolidated selling expense increased from $2,592,000 in the first quarter of last year to $2,808,000 in the first quarter of this year due primarily to higher payroll expense as a result of additional sales personnel and higher sales commissions expense.
Consolidated general and administrative expenses increased from $2,499,000 in the first quarter of last year to $3,098,000 in the first quarter of this year due to higher stock-based compensation and incentive expenses. The higher stock-based compensation of $346,000 is primarily due to remeasurement and acceleration of expense recognition of the equity awards held by the Companys former CEO and current Vice Chairman of the Board of Directors. These equity awards were originally scheduled to vest at various dates in 2013 and 2014, and are now scheduled to vest on July 31, 2012 pursuant to an amendment on March 1, 2012 of the former CEOs employment agreement. Higher incentive expense of $170,000 was recorded in the first quarter of this year compared to last year as a result of the Companys improving operating results.
15
Amortization of intangibles decreased from $352,000 in the first quarter of last year to $317,000 in the first quarter of this year. The decrease is attributable to some intangible assets that became fully amortized in fiscal 2012, partially offset by $50,000 amortization expense of intangibles acquired pursuant to the Navman Wireless Asset Purchase Agreement.
Non-operating Expense, Net
Non-operating expense decreased $266,000 from the first quarter of last year to the first quarter of this year due primarily to net interest expense being lower by $310,000. In the first quarter of last year the Company had 12% subordinated promissory notes outstanding in the aggregate principal amount of $5,000,000. These subordinated notes were paid off in August 2011.
Income Tax Provision
No income tax provision, other than minimum income taxes, was recorded during the quarters ended May 31, 2012 and May 31, 2011 because of the existence of net operating loss carryforwards that offset the pre-tax income.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company has a credit facility with Square 1 Bank comprised of a term loan and a revolver that provides for aggregate borrowings of up to $12 million. The maturity date of the credit facility is August 15, 2014. The revolver borrowing limit is equal to the lesser of (a) $12 million minus the term loan principal outstanding at any point in time, or (b) 85% of eligible accounts receivable. At May 31, 2012, the Company had no outstanding borrowings under the revolver, and the amount available to borrow at that date amounted to $9,200,000. The term loan, which had an outstanding principal balance of $2,800,000 at May 31, 2012, is repayable at the rate of $100,000 per month beginning April 2012. All borrowings under the credit facility bear interest at Square 1 Bank's prime rate plus 1.0% per annum, and are secured by substantially all assets of the Company. At May 31, 2012, the effective interest rate on the revolver and bank term loan was 4.25%. Interest on borrowings under the credit facility is payable monthly.
The bank credit facility contains a financial covenant that requires the Company to maintain minimum levels of earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation, amortization and other noncash charges (commonly known as EBITDA or adjusted EBITDA) on a rolling six-month basis and a minimum debt coverage ratio. At May 31, 2012, the Company was in compliance with its debt covenants under the credit facility. The credit facility also provides for a number of customary events of default, including a provision that a material adverse change constitutes an event of default that permits the lender, at its option, to accelerate the loan. Among other provisions, the credit facility requires a lock-box and cash collateral account whereby cash remittances from the Company's customers are directed to the cash collateral account and which amounts are applied to reduce the revolving loan principal balance.
The Company's primary sources of liquidity are its cash and cash equivalents, which amounted to $7,315,000 at May 31, 2012, and the revolving line of credit with Square 1 Bank. During the quarter ended May 31, 2012, cash and cash equivalents increased by $1,714,000. During this quarter, cash was provided by operations in the amount of $3,195,000, proceeds from the exercise of stock options and warrants of $106,000, and collections on a note receivable of $140,000, partially offset by $1,000,000 cash paid pursuant to the Navman Wireless Asset Purchase Agreement, capital expenditures of $435,000, repayments of the bank term loan of $200,000, and payment of employee withholding taxes on the net share settlement of vested equity awards of $92,000.
FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
Forward looking statements in this Form 10-Q which include, without limitation, statements relating to the Company's plans, strategies, objectives, expectations, intentions, projections and other information regarding future performance, are made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The words "may", "will", "could", "plans", "intends", "seeks", "believes", "anticipates", "expects", "estimates", "judgment", "goal", and variations of these words and similar expressions, are intended to identify forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements reflect the Company's current views with respect to future events and financial performance and are subject to certain risks and uncertainties, including, without limitation, product demand, competitive pressures and pricing declines in the Company's wireless and satellite markets, the timing of customer approvals of new product designs, intellectual property infringement claims, interruption or failure of our Internet-based systems used to wirelessly configure and communicate with the tracking and monitoring devices that we sell, and other risks and uncertainties that are set forth under the caption "Risk Factors" in Part I, Item 1A of the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended February 28, 2012 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 26, 2012. Such risks and uncertainties could cause actual results to differ materially from historical or anticipated results. Although the Company believes the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are based upon reasonable assumptions, it can give no assurance that its expectations will be attained. The Company undertakes no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
16
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Foreign Currency Risk
The Company has international operations, giving rise to exposure to market risks from changes in foreign exchange rates. A cumulative foreign currency translation loss of $65,000 related to the Company's Canadian subsidiary is included in accumulated other comprehensive loss in the stockholders' equity section of the consolidated balance sheet at May 31, 2012. Foreign currency gains (losses) included in the consolidated income statements for the three months ended May 31, 2012 and 2011 were $(26,000) and $7,000, respectively.
Interest Rate Risk
The Company has variable-rate bank debt. A fluctuation of one percent in the interest rate on the $12 million credit facility with Square 1 Bank would have an annual impact of approximately $120,000 on the Company's consolidated income statement assuming that the full amount of the facility was borrowed.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The Company's principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded, based on their evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, (the "Exchange Act")) as of the end of the period covered by this Report, that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that the information required to be disclosed in reports that are filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including the principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure and that such information is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities Exchange Commission.
Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There has been no change in the Company's internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the Company's most recently completed fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.
PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
