NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)

1.     Throughout this report, the terms “we”, “us”, “ours”, “ISC” and “company” refer to Intelligent Systems Corporation, including its wholly-owned and majority-owned subsidiaries.  As contemplated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) instructions to Form 10-Q, the following footnotes have been condensed and, therefore, do not contain all disclosures required in connection with annual financial statements. Reference should be made to the Company’s year-end audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011, as filed with the Commission.  The financial information included in this report has been prepared by the Company, without audit. In the opinion of management, the financial information included in this report contains all adjustments (all of which are normal and recurring) necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods. Nevertheless, the results shown for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full year. The December 31, 2011, consolidated condensed balance sheet data was derived from audited consolidated financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

2.     Option Agreement – As disclosed in Note 17 to our 2011 Annual Report Form 10-K, on March 20, 2012, Intelligent Systems Corporation entered into an Option Agreement (the “Option Agreement”) with Central National Bank, a national banking association (“CNB”). The Option Agreement grants to CNB the option to acquire from ISC the number of shares of stock in the company’s CoreCard Software subsidiary equal to five percent (5%) of ISC’s equity ownership in CoreCard. Currently, ISC owns approximately 96 percent of the equity of CoreCard. The number of shares covered by the option may be increased, up to ten percent (10%), based on achievement of certain volumes of prepaid cards issued by CNB and processed by CoreCard, as defined in the Option Agreement. The option has an exercise price of one million dollars, expires on December 31, 2017 and can be exercised at any time before it expires. Further, at any time between September 30, 2014 and June 30, 2017, subject to certain earlier termination provisions, CNB may elect to require ISC to repurchase the option at a purchase price equal to the fair market value of the option less one million dollars. We entered into the Option Agreement in recognition of CNB’s ongoing cooperation and contribution to building CoreCard’s card processing business.  During the nine month period ended September 30, 2012, we recorded an expense of $18,000 in the marketing category and have recorded a long-term liability of $18,000 at September 30, 2012, to recognize the financial impact of the Option Agreement.

3.     Comprehensive Income – Comprehensive income is the total of net income (loss) and all other non-owner changes in equity in a period.  A summary follows:

Comprehensive income (loss)
  $ 94     $ 638     $ (438 )   $ 919  

4.     Stock-based Compensation At September 30, 2012, we had two stock–based compensation plans in effect. We record compensation cost related to unvested stock option awards by recognizing the unamortized grant date fair value on a straight line basis over the service periods of each award. We have estimated forfeiture rates based on our historical experience.  Stock option compensation expense is recognized as a component of general and administrative expenses in the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements.  We recorded $20,000 and $10,000 of stock-based compensation expense in the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively and $59,000 and $27,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The estimated fair value of options granted is calculated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with assumptions as previously disclosed in our 2011 Form 10-K.
 
 
Page6

 
 
As of September 30, 2012, there is $134,000 of unrecognized compensation cost related to stock options. During the nine month period ended September 30, 2012, an aggregate of 17,000 options were granted on May 24, 2012 to four independent members of our board pursuant to the 2011 Non-Employee Director Stock Option Plan.  All options were granted at fair market value on the date of grant.  No options were exercised during the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2012.  A total of 14,000 unexercised options expired during the nine month period ended September 30, 2012.

The following table summarizes stock options as of September 30, 2012:

   
# of Shares
   
Wgt Avg Exercise Price
   
Wgt Avg Remaining Contractual Life in Years
   
Aggregate
Intrinsic Value
 
Outstanding at September 30, 2012
    345,500     $ 1.72       5.8     $ 12,960  
Vested at September 30, 2012
    220,833     $ 1.77       4.0     $ 12,960  

The aggregate intrinsic value in the table above represents the total pre-tax intrinsic value (the difference between the company’s closing stock price on the last trading day of the third quarter of 2012 and the exercise price, multiplied by the number of in-the-money options) that would have been received by the option holders had all option holders exercised their options on September 30, 2012.  The amount of aggregate intrinsic value will change based on the fair market value of the company’s stock.

5.     Fair Value of Financial Instruments - The carrying value of cash, marketable securities, accounts receivable, accounts payable and certain other financial instruments (such as short-term borrowings, accrued expenses, and other current liabilities) included in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets approximates their fair value principally due to the short-term maturity of these instruments.  The carrying value of the non-interest bearing note receivable approximates its fair value and has been discounted at a rate of 4% which approximates rates offered in the market for notes receivable with similar terms and conditions.

Financial instruments that potentially subject us to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash, marketable securities, trade accounts and note receivable.  Our available cash is held in accounts managed by third-party financial institutions.  Cash may exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, or FDIC, insurance limits. While we monitor cash balances on a regular basis and adjust the balances as appropriate, these balances could be impacted if the underlying financial institutions fail. To date, we have experienced no loss or lack of access to our cash; however, we can provide no assurances that access to our cash will not be impacted by adverse conditions in the financial markets.

6.     Fair Value Measurements - In determining fair value, the Company uses quoted market prices in active markets.  GAAP establishes a fair value measurement framework, provides a single definition of fair value, and requires expanded disclosure summarizing fair value measurements.  GAAP emphasizes that fair value is a market-based measurement, not an entity specific measurement.  Therefore, a fair value measurement should be determined based on the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.

GAAP establishes a hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable input be used when available.  Observable inputs are based on data obtained from sources independent of the company that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.  Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the company’s assumptions about the estimates market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. 

The hierarchy is measured in three levels based on the reliability of inputs:

• Level 1
Valuations based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that we have the ability to access. Valuation adjustments and block discounts are not applied to Level 1 instruments.

• Level 2
Valuations based on quoted prices in less active, dealer or broker markets.  Fair values are primarily obtained from third party pricing services for identical or comparable assets or liabilities.

• Level 3
Valuations derived from other valuation methodologies, including pricing models, discounted cash flow models and similar techniques, and not based on market, exchange, dealer, or broker-traded transactions.  Level 3 valuations incorporate certain assumptions and projections that are not observable in the market and significant professional judgment is needed in determining the fair value assigned to such assets or liabilities.
 
 
Page7

 

In instances where the determination of the fair value measurement is based on inputs from different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the entire fair value measurement falls is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.

Our available-for-sale investments are classified within level 1 of the valuation hierarchy.

The fair value of equity method and cost method investments has not been determined as it was impracticable to do so due to the fact that the investee companies are relatively small, early stage private companies for which there is no comparable valuation data available without unreasonable time and expense.

7.     Concentration of Revenue  The following table indicates the percentage of consolidated revenue represented by each customer for any period in which such customer represented more than 10% of consolidated revenue.

    --       28.4 %     --       11.3 %

8.     Short-term Borrowings – On June 29, 2012, we renewed our working capital line of credit with our bank.  The revolving line of credit bears interest at the higher of the prime rate plus one and one half percent (1.5%) and 6.0% (6.0% at September 30, 2012); is secured by all assets of the company and our principal subsidiaries; is guaranteed by our subsidiaries; and expires June 30, 2014. We may borrow an aggregate of 80 percent of qualified accounts receivable of our consolidated subsidiaries plus 10 percent of inventory, up to a maximum of $1,250,000.  At September 30, 2012, our borrowing base calculation resulted in availability of the maximum of $1,250,000, of which we had drawn down $0.  The terms of the loan contain typical covenants not to sell or transfer material assets, to create liens against assets, to merge with another entity, to change corporate structure or the nature of our business, to declare or pay dividends, or to redeem shares of common stock.  The loan agreement also contains covenants not to change the chief executive and chief financial officers of the company or to make loans to or invest in new minority-owned companies, without first obtaining the consent of our bank in each case.  Furthermore, the terms of the loan include a covenant requiring the company to maintain a minimum tangible net worth as defined in the loan agreement at the end of each calendar quarter during the loan term.  As of September 30, 2012, we were in compliance with the loan covenants.
 
9.     Commitment and Contingencies –

Leases – We renewed a noncancellable operating lease on May 25, 2012 for a three year term ending May 31, 2015. As of September 30, 2012, our future minimum lease payments are as follows:

The above future minimum lease payments are payable to a related party, as explained in Note 11 to the Consolidated Financial Statements contained in our 2011 Form 10-K.

Legal Matters – ChemFree Patent Matter – As reported in our 2011 Form 10-K, on March 12, 2012, the United States Court of Appeals issued its final ruling in the long-standing case brought by ChemFree on a patent infringement matter, affirming the invalidity findings of the lower court with respect to certain claims in four of ChemFree’s patents. As a result of the ruling, ChemFree incurred a liability for certain allowable taxable costs. Accordingly, the company accrued for the estimated amount of such costs and recorded an expense of $75,000 reflected in the category Other Income and a corresponding liability reflected in Other Current Liabilities in its 2011 Consolidated Financial Statements.  The total final amount of the liability for taxable costs was $76,000, which ChemFree paid in April 2012.

On September 29, 2011, ChemFree filed a second patent infringement action against J. Walter in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Georgia, alleging that certain of J. Walter’s products infringe a newly issued patent held by ChemFree. The complaint seeks a ruling to compel the defendant to cease its infringing activities. The discovery phase of the litigation is on hold while the parties attempt to settle the matter.  No resolution has been reached as of the date of this filing.

In the ordinary course of business, from time to time we may be involved in various pending or threatened legal actions. The litigation process is inherently uncertain and it is possible that the resolution of such matters might have a material adverse effect upon our financial condition and/or results of operations.

11.   Income Taxes – We have recognized tax benefits from all tax positions we have taken, and there has been no adjustment to any carry forwards (net operating loss or research and development credits) in the past two years.  As of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, we have recorded a liability of $134,000 and $116,000, respectively, in connection with unrecognized tax benefits related to uncertain tax positions.  The liability includes $25,000 and $20,000 of interest and penalties, as of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 respectively.  As of September 30, 2012, management expects some incremental, but not significant, changes in the balance of unrecognized tax benefits over the next twelve months.

Our policy is to recognize accrued interest related to uncertain tax positions in interest expense and related penalties, if applicable, in general and administrative expense. During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, we recognized $2,000 in interest expense and $3,000 in penalties related to uncertain tax positions.  During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, we recognized $5,000 in interest expense and $0 in penalties related to uncertain tax positions.

We file a consolidated U.S. federal income tax return for all subsidiaries in which our ownership equals or exceeds 80%, as well as individual subsidiary returns in various states and foreign jurisdictions. With few exceptions we are no longer subject to U.S. federal, state and local or foreign income tax examinations by taxing authorities for years before 2008.

12.   Recent Accounting Pronouncements – We have considered all recently issued accounting pronouncements and do not believe the adoption of such pronouncements will have a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements.
 
13.   Restatement – On January 1, 2009, we adopted Financial Account Standards Board (“FASB”) authoritative guidance establishing accounting and reporting standards for Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements.  The standard requires the recognition of a noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary as a component of equity in the consolidated financial statements, separate from the parent’s equity for all periods presented.  In addition, the standard requires the parent to attribute to the noncontrolling interest their share of net income and losses of the subsidiary and to disclose on the face of the consolidated income statement the amounts of net income and losses attributed to the noncontrolling interest.  The standard also requires the parent to attribute to the noncontrolling interest their share of losses even if such attribution results in a deficit noncontrolling interest balance within the parent’s equity accounts.  We recently determined that we have not been applying the guidance correctly in all respects because we have not been attributing to the noncontrolling interest (held by common shareholders of our CoreCord Software subsidiary) their share of the losses or income of the subsidiary and have not been disclosing such attributed amounts on the face of the consolidated statements of operations.  Accordingly, we have restated the consolidated statements of operations for the quarter and year-to-date periods ended September 30, 2011 and the stockholders’ equity section of the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2011 to fully comply with the standard.  Below is a summary of the impact of the restatement.
 
 
·
For the three month period ended September 30, 2011, we previously reported $700,000 of net income.  In restatement, we attributed $133,000 of income to the noncontrolling interest, resulting in net income attributable to Intelligent Systems Corporation of $567,000 ($0.06 per basic and diluted share) as restated.
 
·
For the nine month period ended September 30, 2011, we previously reported $983,000 of net income.  In restatement, we attributed $175,000 of loss to the noncontrolling interest, resulting in net income attributable to Intelligent Systems Corporation of $1,158,000 ($0.13 per basic and diluted share) as restated.
 
·
As of December 31, 2011, we previously reported Intelligent Systems Corporation stockholders’ equity of $5,531,000 and noncontrolling interest equity of $1,516,000.  In restatement, we reduced Intelligent Systems Corporation stockholders’ accumulated deficit by $1,619,000 (representing the accumulated losses attributed to the noncontrolling interest) and reduced the noncontrolling interest equity by the same amount.  After restatement, Intelligent Systems’ Corporation stockholders’ equity increased to $7,150,000 and the noncontrolling interest became a deficit of $103,000.  Total stockholders’ equity was unchanged at $7,047,000.
 
14.   Subsequent Events – We evaluated subsequent events through the date when these financial statements were issued.  We are not aware of any significant events that occurred subsequent to the balance sheet date but prior to the filing of this report that would have a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements.

Item 2.  Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

In addition to historical information, this Form 10-Q may contain forward-looking statements relating to ISC. All statements, trend analyses and other information relative to markets for our products and trends in revenue, gross margins and anticipated expense levels, as well as other statements including words such as “anticipate”, “believe”, “plan”, “estimate”, “expect”, and “intend”, and other similar expressions, constitute forward-looking statements. Prospective investors are cautioned that any such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve risks and uncertainties including those factors described below under “Factors That May Affect Future Operations”, and that actual results may differ materially from those contemplated by such forward-looking statements.  Except to the extent required by law, ISC undertakes no obligation to update or revise forward-looking statements to reflect changed assumptions, the occurrence of unanticipated events or changes in future operating results.

For purposes of this discussion and analysis, we are assuming and relying upon the reader’s familiarity with the information contained in Item 6.  Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, in the Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

We derive our product revenue from sales and leases of equipment and supplies in our Industrial Products sector and from sales of software licenses in our Information Technology Products and Services sector. Our service revenue consists of fees for consulting, customization, training, processing services, maintenance and support for software products in our Information Technology Products and Services sector. Our revenue fluctuates from period to period and our results are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected in future periods. Period-to-period comparisons may not be meaningful and it is difficult to predict the level of consolidated revenue on a quarterly or annual basis for a number of reasons, including the following:

·
A change in revenue level at one of our subsidiaries may impact consolidated revenue or be offset by an opposing change at another subsidiary.
·
Software license revenue in a given period may consist of a relatively small number of contracts and contract values can vary considerably depending on the software product and scope of the license sold. Consequently, even minor delays in delivery under a software contract (which may be out of our control) could have a significant and unpredictable impact on the consolidated revenue that we recognize in a given quarterly or annual period.
·
Customers may decide to postpone a planned implementation of our software for any number of reasons, which may be unrelated to our software or contract performance, but which may affect the amount, timing and characterization of our deferred and/or recognized revenue.

We have frequently recognized consolidated operating losses on a quarterly and annual basis and are likely to do so in the future from time to time. Our ChemFree subsidiary generates an operating profit and positive cash flow on a quarterly and annual basis. Our CoreCard subsidiary is not consistently profitable, due in part to significant research and development expense that is invested in its product offerings and the deferral of initial contract revenue recognition until licensed software and associated services are delivered to its customers. Depending upon the size and number of software licenses recognized in a particular period and the level of expenses incurred to support existing customers and development and sales activities, CoreCard may report operating profits on an irregular basis as it builds a larger customer base. A significant portion of CoreCard’s expense is related to personnel, including a workforce of approximately 200 employees located in India. In addition, CoreCard is now offering processing services as an alternative for customers who prefer to outsource this function instead of licensing our software and running the application in-house. There are a number of uncertainties related to a new line of business. We are likely to incur losses in the near future for the processing business because contract revenue is spread out over multi-year contracts while we are currently investing in the infrastructure, resources and internal and compliance processes to support this new line of business. For these and other reasons, our operating results may vary from quarter to quarter and at the present time are generally not predictable with a reasonable degree of certainty.

From time to time, we derive income from sales of holdings in affiliate and other minority-owned companies or we may record a charge if we believe the value of a non-consolidated company is impaired. We also recognize on a quarterly basis our pro rata share of the income or losses of an affiliate company accounted for by the equity method. The timing and amount of the gain or loss recognized as a result of a sale or the amount of equity in the income or losses of the affiliate are not under our control and are not necessarily indicative of future results, either on a quarterly or annual basis.

In recent years, most of our cash has been generated by our ChemFree operations and, on an irregular basis, from sales of our investments or subsidiaries, and from a shareholder rights offering in mid-2009. We have used a significant amount of the cash received from these transactions and operations to support the domestic and international operations associated with our CoreCard subsidiary and the corporate office.

Results of Operations

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and the notes to Consolidated Financial Statements presented in this quarterly report.

Revenue – Total revenue from continuing operations in the three month period ended September 30, 2012 was $4,075,000 compared to $4,930,000 in the third quarter of 2011.  For the nine month period ended September 30, 2012, total revenue was $12,201,000, compared to $12,631,000 in the same period in 2011.
 
·
Revenue from products, which includes sales and leases of equipment and supplies in our Industrial Products segment as well as software license fees related to the Information Technology segment, was $3,104,000 in the three month period ended September 30, 2012, a 23 percent decline compared to the three month period ended September 30, 2011. Product revenue was $9,879,000 in the nine month period ended September 30, 2012, an 8 percent decline compared to the nine month period ended September 30, 2011. In both the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2012, our ChemFree subsidiary reported year-over-year growth in total product revenue of approximately 9 percent, led by increased domestic sales and lease volume of its SmartWasher® parts washer machines. ChemFree’s revenue from worldwide consumable supplies also experienced period-to-period growth in both the quarter and year-to-date periods of 2012.  However, software license revenue associated with our Information Technology segment declined in both the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2012 compared to the same periods in 2011 due to fewer new software license contracts completed in 2012 than in the corresponding periods last year.

 
·
Service revenue associated with the Information Technology segment was $971,000 and $2,322,000 in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, respectively, an increase of 11 percent and 22 percent compared to the respective periods in 2011.  Service revenue includes three components: revenue from annual maintenance and support contracts for our installed customer base, revenue from professional services (such as software customizations or modifications) and revenue from our card processing services. The growth in the quarter and year-to-date periods in 2012 as compared to the same periods in 2011 is attributed to an increase in 2012 in the installed base of customers that pay for maintenance and technical support as well as card processing services and more professional services projects that were completed for CoreCard customers.  The number and timing of professional services contracts vary significantly from period to period based on customer requirements and priorities.

Cost of Revenue – Total cost of revenue was 55 percent of total revenue in both the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2012, respectively, compared to 46 percent and 49 percent of total revenue in the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2011, respectively.  The changes between periods reflect variations in ChemFree’s and CoreCard’s product and service mix from period to period.
 
·
Cost of product revenue was 50 percent of product revenue in both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, respectively, compared to costs of 43 percent and 47 percent of product revenue in the respective periods in 2011.  In 2012, the higher cost of sales as a percent of product revenue reflects the fact that CoreCard’s software license revenue (which has a lower cost of sales than ChemFree’s partswasher products) represented a smaller percentage of total product revenue in 2012 than in 2011.  ChemFree’s cost of sales as a percentage of its revenue was relatively consistent in 2012 and 2011 but the decline in software license revenue in the 2012 periods impacted the total product cost of sales percentage.
 
·
Cost of service revenue (which relates to our CoreCard business only) was 71 percent and 77 percent of service revenue in the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2012, respectively, as compared to 57 percent and 59 percent of service revenue in the respective periods last year.  The mix of service revenue in a given period, as well as the number of customers and new products being supported, impacts the gross margin on service revenue. Cost of service revenue includes three components: the costs to provide annual maintenance and support services to our installed base of licensed customers, costs to provide professional services and costs to provide our card processing services. The cost and gross margins on professional services revenue are tied to specific projects and vary depending on the specific project requirements and complexity as well as the mix of our U.S. and offshore employees working on the project. Our costs to provide card processing services are high in 2012 relative to the revenue earned because we are putting in place the systems and processes necessary to support this new service initiative. These costs were significantly higher in 2012 than in 2011. In 2012, CoreCard is also allocating additional resources for regulatory compliance and support to its processing and software license customers.

Operating Expenses – Consolidated marketing expenses were higher by 10 percent ($56,000) and 9 percent ($150,000) in the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2012 compared to the same periods in 2011, mainly due to increased sales commissions associated with growth in domestic sales of ChemFree’s Smartwasher® products as well as increases in personnel and consulting expenses. Consolidated general and administrative expenses were lower by 10 percent ($71,000) in the three month period ended September 30, 2012 compared to the respective period in 2011 due mainly to lower legal expenses related to the matters described in Part II, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q.  Consolidated research and development expenses were lower by 15 percent ($99,000) and 9 percent ($187,000) in the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2012, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2011, due to a higher percentage of technical personnel expenses being charged to cost of services revenue for maintenance, processing and professional services in 2012.

Interest Income, net – We recorded net interest income of $4,000 and $8,000 in the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2012, respectively, compared to net interest income of $8,000 and $25,000 in the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2011, respectively. The difference between periods reflects primarily the fact that the note receivable related to the sale of our former VISaer subsidiary was lower in 2012 than in 2011 due to principal payments made in 2011 and 2012.

Equity in Income (Loss) of Affiliate Company – On a quarterly basis, we recognize our pro rata share of the earnings or losses of an affiliate company that we record on the equity method.  We recorded a net equity loss of $5,000 and $16,000 in the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2012, respectively, compared to net equity loss of $17,000 and net equity income of $3,000 in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, respectively.  Changes between periods reflect variations in profitability of the affiliate company.

Other Income – As previously explained, the year-to-date results for 2011 include income of $450,000 earned by our ChemFree subsidiary upon the settlement of a legal matter.

Income Taxes – We recorded $48,000, in the nine month period ended September 30, 2012, respectively, for state income tax expense, which amounts include $13,000 in connection with uncertain tax positions. In the comparable period in 2011, the nine month amount shown for income taxes includes $27,000 in connection with uncertain tax positions.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our cash balance at September 30, 2012 was $2,028,000 as compared to $3,152,000 at December 31, 2011.  During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, sources of cash included receipt of a scheduled $250,000 payment from the purchaser of our former VISaer subsidiary (as explained in more detail in Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements contained in our 2011 Annual Report on Form 10-K).  We used $763,000 cash for operations during the nine month period ended September 30, 2012.  Major working capital changes included:
 
·
an increase in accounts receivable of $318,000 reflecting higher billings in the third quarter of 2012 as compared to the fourth quarter of 2011.
 
·
an increase of $222,000 in inventory due mainly to building inventory to support ChemFree’s sales growth, estimated near-term demand and planned new product introductions.
 
·
A reduction of $102,000 in other current liabilities, the majority of which is related to reductions in accrued legal and royalty expenses at the ChemFree subsidiary.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, we used $277,000 cash for fixed assets, reflecting an increase in ChemFree products that are leased to customers (the cost of such leased products is included in PP&E on our balance sheet), as well as purchases of computer and facility equipment at our operating companies. We also used $300,000 to acquire a minority ownership interest in an early stage technology company and $41,000 to purchase marketable securities.

We currently project that we will have sufficient liquidity from cash on hand, continued cash positive operations at ChemFree, projected customer payments at CoreCard and periodic working capital borrowings or sale of marketable securities, if needed, to support our operations and capital equipment purchases in the foreseeable future. We renewed our line of credit in June 2012 with a maximum principal availability of $1.25 million based on qualified receivables and inventory levels which we will use as necessary to support short-term cash needs. The line of credit expires June 30, 2014, subject to the bank renewing the line for an additional period.  We have not drawn down under the bank line of credit in more than two years. We presently project that we will have sufficient accounts receivable, inventory balances and tangible net worth for the foreseeable future to support the borrowing base and loan covenants for any required draws under our bank line of credit..  Delays in meeting project milestones or software delivery commitments at CoreCard could cause customers to postpone payments and increase our need for cash. Presently, we do not believe there is a material risk that we will not perform successfully on any contracts but if customer payments are delayed for any reason, if we do not control costs or if we encounter unforeseen technical or quality problems, then we could require more cash than presently planned.
 
 
Page13

 
 
Long-term, we currently expect that liquidity will improve and consolidated operations will generate sufficient cash to fund their requirements with use of our credit facility to accommodate short-term needs. Other long-term sources of liquidity include potential sales of investments, subsidiaries or other assets although there are no current plans to do so. Furthermore, the timing and amount of any such transactions are uncertain and, to the extent they involve non-consolidated companies, generally not within our control.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not currently have any off-balance sheet arrangements that are reasonably likely to have a current or future material effect on our financial condition, liquidity or results of operations.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon our Consolidated Financial Statements which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.  The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amount of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses.  We consider certain accounting policies related to revenue recognition, valuation of intangibles and valuation of investments to be critical policies due to the estimation processes involved in each.  For a detailed description on the application of these and other accounting policies, see Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011.  Reference is also made to the discussion of the application of these critical accounting policies and estimates contained in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for 2011.  During the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2012, there were no significant or material changes in the application of critical accounting policies that would require an update to the information provided in the Form 10-K.

Factors That May Affect Future Operations
 
Future operations in both the Information Technology Products and Services and Industrial Products segments are subject to risks and uncertainties that may negatively impact our future results of operations or projected cash requirements.  It is difficult to predict future quarterly and annual results with certainty. Any trend or delay that affects even one of our subsidiaries could have a negative impact on the company’s consolidated results of operations or cash requirements on a quarterly or annual basis. In addition, the carrying value of our investments is impacted by a number of factors which are generally beyond our control since we are typically a non-controlling shareholder in a private company with limited liquidity.

Among the numerous factors that may affect our consolidated results of operations or financial condition are the following:

·
Further weakness in the global financial markets could have a negative impact on CoreCard due to potential customers (most of whom perform some type of financial services) delaying purchase or software implementation decisions.
·
Stricter regulations and reluctance by financial institutions to act as sponsor banks for prospective customers (such as issuers and processors of credit and prepaid cards) could increase CoreCard’s losses and cash requirements.
·
Delays in software development projects could cause our customers to delay implementations or payments, which would increase our costs and reduce our revenue.
·
As an alternative to licensing its software, CoreCard is now offering processing services running on the CoreCard software system. There are numerous risks associated with entering any new line of business and if CoreCard fails to manage the risks associated with its processing operations, it could have a negative impact on our business.
·
CoreCard’s processing business is more regulated than is its licensed software business.  If the company fails to comply with applicable regulations and processing standards, it could be subject to financial or other penalties that could have a significant impact on its business.
·
Our CoreCard subsidiary could fail to deliver software products which meet the business and technology requirements of its target markets within a reasonable time frame and at a price point that supports a profitable, sustainable business model.
 
 
Page14

 
 
·
One of ChemFree’s customers represented 29% percent of our consolidated revenue in the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2012 and any unplanned changes in the volume of orders or timeliness of payments from such customer could have a negative impact on revenue, inventory levels and cash, at least in the near-term.
·
Delays in production or shortages of certain sole-sourced parts for our ChemFree products could impact revenue and orders.
·
Increased prices of raw materials and sub-assemblies could reduce ChemFree’s gross profit if it is not able to offset such increased costs with higher selling prices for its products or other reductions in production costs. In 2011, the company raised prices on certain of its SmartWasher® products to offset cost increases but may not be able to do so in the future due to competitive pressure.
·
Software errors or poor quality control may delay product releases, increase our costs, result in non-acceptance of our software by customers or delay revenue recognition.
·
Competitive pressures (including pricing, changes in customer requirements and preferences, and competitor product offerings) may cause prospective customers to choose an alternative product or service solution, resulting in lower revenue and profits (or increased losses).
·
Increasing and changing government regulations in the United States and foreign countries related to such issues as data privacy, financial and credit transactions could require changes to our products and services to meet applicable compliance requirements, which could increase our costs and could affect our existing customer relationships or prevent us from getting new customers.
·
CoreCard could fail to expand its base of customers as quickly as anticipated, resulting in lower revenue and profits (or increased losses) and increased cash needs.
·
In certain situations, ChemFree’s lease customers are permitted to terminate the lease covering a SmartWasher® machine, which may require the unamortized balance of the original machine cost to be written off which could reduce profits in that reporting period and result in lower revenue in future periods.
·
CoreCard could fail to retain key software developers and managers who have accumulated years of know-how in our target markets and company products, or fail to attract and train a sufficient number of new software developers and testers to support our product development plans and customer requirements at projected cost levels.
·
Delays in anticipated customer payments for any reason would increase our cash requirements and possibly our losses.
·
Declines in performance, financial condition or valuation of minority-owned companies could cause us to write-down the carrying value of our investment, which could negatively impact our earnings.
·
Our future capital needs are uncertain and depend on a number of factors; additional capital may not be available on acceptable terms, if at all.
·
Other general economic and political conditions could cause customers to delay or cancel software purchases.

Item 4.  Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this report, the company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the company’s management, including the company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the company’s disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) under the Exchange Act.  Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective.  There were no significant changes in the company’s internal control over financial reporting or in other factors identified in connection with this evaluation that occurred during the period covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Part II.  OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

ChemFree Patent Matter – As reported in our 2011 Form 10-K, on March 12, 2012, the United States Court of Appeals issued its final ruling in the long-standing case brought by ChemFree on a patent infringement matter, affirming the invalidity findings of the lower court with respect to certain claims in four of ChemFree’s patents. As a result of the ruling, ChemFree incurred a liability for certain allowable taxable costs. Accordingly, the company accrued for the estimated amount of such costs and recorded an expense of $75,000 reflected in the category Other Income and a corresponding liability reflected in Other Current Liabilities in its 2011 Consolidated Financial Statements.  The total final amount of the liability for taxable costs was $76,000, which ChemFree paid in April 2012.

On September 29, 2011, ChemFree filed a second patent infringement action against J. Walter in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Georgia, alleging that certain of J. Walter’s products infringe a newly issued patent held by ChemFree. The complaint seeks a ruling to compel the defendant to cease its infringing activities. The discovery phase of the litigation is on hold while the parties attempt to settle the matter.  No resolution has been reached as of the date of this filing.

In the ordinary course of business, from time to time we may be involved in various pending or threatened legal actions. The litigation process is inherently uncertain and it is possible that the resolution of such matters might have a material adverse effect upon our financial condition and/or results of operations.
