ON2 TECHNOLOGIES, INC.
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(1) Nature of Operations and Liquidity

On2 Technologies, Inc. (“On2” or the “Company”) is a video compression technology firm that has developed its proprietary technology platform and video compression/decompression software (“codec”) to deliver high-quality video at the lowest possible data rates to intra- and internets, such as set-top boxes, the Internet and wireless devices. The Company offers a suite of products and professional services that encompass its proprietary compression technology. The Company’s professional service offerings include customized engineering and consulting services and high-level video encoding. In addition, the Company licenses its software products for use with video delivery platforms.

The Company’s business is characterized by rapid technological change, new product development and evolving industry standards. Inherent in the Company’s business model are various risks and uncertainties, including its limited operating history, unproven business model and the limited history of the industry in which it operates. The Company’s success may depend, in part, upon the wide adoption of video delivery media, prospective product and service development efforts and the acceptance of the Company’s technology solutions by the marketplace.

The Company has experienced significant operating losses and negative operating cash flows to date. At June 30, 2008, the Company had working capital of $3,307,000. For the six months ended June 30, 2008, the Company incurred a net loss of $11,914,000 which included non-cash charges of $2,812,000. Cash used from operating activities was $4,077,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2008.

The Company’s plan to increase cash flows from operations relies significantly on increases in revenue generated from our compression and video codec technology services and products. Additionally, in order to reduce operating costs, management has begun the implementation of a Company-wide cost savings plan. Given our cash and short-term investments of $8,129,000 at June 30, 2008, and the Company’s forecasted cash requirements, the Company’s management anticipates that the Company’s existing capital resources will be sufficient to satisfy our cash flow requirements through June 30, 2009. Should sales be less than forecasted and expenses higher than anticipated, the Company may need to seek other sources of funds through the issuance of equity financing, or implement further reductions of operating expenses, in order for the Company to generate positive cash flows to sustain the operations of the Company.

(2) Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The interim condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited. However, in the opinion of management, such condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of normally recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company and its results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented. The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The Company believes that the disclosures included herein are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Form 10-K Annual Report for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007, filed with the SEC on June 27, 2008.

Reclassifications

We have reclassified certain prior period amounts to conform with the current period presentation.

(3) Acquisitions

On November 1, 2007, the Company completed the acquisition of all of the share capital of Hantro Products Oy (“Hantro”), a Finnish corporation. The Hantro acquisition was structured as a share exchange transaction. In accordance with the exchange agreement that governed the exchange transaction, on November 1, 2007, Hantro’s security holders each transferred to On2 all of the outstanding capital shares, and all outstanding options to purchase capital shares, that together constituted all of the equity ownership of Hantro, in exchange for cash, shares and a commitment to issue additional shares in an amount to be determined in accordance with a formula for calculating contingent consideration.

Pro Forma Financial Information

The unaudited information in the table below summarizes the combined results of operations of On2 Technologies, Inc. and Hantro, on a pro forma basis, as though the companies had been combined as of the beginning of each of the periods presented. The pro forma financial information is presented for informational purposes only and is not indicative of the results of operations that would have been achieved if the acquisition had taken place at the beginning of each of the periods presented. The pro forma financial information for all periods presented includes the business combination accounting effect of historical Hantro revenues and amortization charges from acquired intangible assets.

(4) Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) has issued Statements of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) 162, The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. Statement 162 is intended to improve financial reporting by identifying a consistent framework, or hierarchy, for selecting accounting principles to be used in preparing financial statements that are presented in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for nongovernmental entities. SFAS 162 is effective 60 days following the SEC's approval of the PCAOB amendments to AU Section 411. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting SFAS 162 on its financial position, and results of operations.

On March 19, 2008, the FASB issued SFAS 161, Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities - an Amendment of FASB Statement 133. SFAS 161 enhances required disclosures regarding derivatives and hedging activities, including enhanced disclosures regarding how: (a) an entity uses derivative instruments; (b) derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under FASB Statement No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities; and (c) derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entity's financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. Specifically, SFAS 161 requires:

- 9 -

 
 
·
Disclosure of the objectives for using derivative instruments be disclosed in terms of underlying risk and accounting designation;
 
 
·
Disclosure of the fair values of derivative instruments and their gains and losses in a tabular format;
 
·
Disclosure of information about credit-risk-related contingent features; and
 
 
·
Cross-reference from the derivative footnote to other footnotes in which derivative-related information is disclosed.
 
SFAS 161 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008. Early application is encouraged.

The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting SFAS No. 161 on its financial position and results of operations.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, Non-controlling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements - An Amendment of ARB No. 51. SFAS 160 establishes new accounting and reporting standards for the non-controlling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. Specifically, this Statement requires the recognition of a non-controlling interest (minority interest) as equity in the consolidated financial statements and separate from the parent's equity. The amount of net income attributable to the non-controlling interest is to be included in consolidated net income on the face of the income statement. SFAS 160 clarifies that changes in a parent's ownership interest in a subsidiary that do not result in deconsolidation are equity transactions if the parent retains its controlling financial interest. In addition, this Statement requires that a parent recognize a gain or loss in net income when a subsidiary is deconsolidated. Such gain or loss will be measured using the fair value of the non-controlling equity investment on the deconsolidation date. SFAS 160 also includes expanded disclosure requirements regarding the interests of the parent and its non-controlling interest. SFAS 160 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2008. Earlier adoption of SFAS 160 is prohibited. Although the Company will continue to evaluate the application of SFAS 160, management does not currently believe adoption will have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations or financial position.

(5) Stock-Based Compensation

The Company adopted the provision of SFAS No. 123R effective January 1, 2006, using the modified prospective transition method. Under the modified prospective method, non-cash compensation expense is recognized under the fair value method for the portion of outstanding share based awards granted prior to the adoption of SFAS 123R for which service has not been rendered, and for any share based awards granted or modified after adoption. Accordingly, periods prior to adoption have not been restated. Prior to the adoption of SFAS 123R the Company accounted for stock based compensation using the intrinsic value method. The Company recognizes share based compensation cost associated with awards subject to graded vesting in accordance with the accelerated method specified in FASB Interpretation No. 28 pursuant to which each vesting tranche is treated as a separate award. The compensation cost associated with each vesting tranche is recognized as expense evenly over the vesting period of that tranche.

(13) Net Loss Per Share

Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss applicable to common shares by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.  Diluted loss attributable to common shares adjusts basic loss per share for the effects of convertible securities, warrants, stock options and other potentially dilutive financial instruments, only in the periods in which such effect is dilutive.  The shares issuable upon the conversion of preferred stock, the exercise of stock options and warrants are excluded from the calculation of net loss per share as their effect would be anti-dilutive. 

Securities that could potentially dilute earnings per share in the future that were not included in the computation of diluted loss per share consist of the following as of June 30:

(14) Subsequent Events

On November 1, 2007, the Company completed the acquisition of all of the share capital of Hantro. The Hantro acquisition was structured as a share exchange transaction. The exchange agreement also required On2 to issue additional shares of common stock, depending on Hantro’s net revenue in 2007. Hantro’s 2007 net revenue exceeded €9,000,000, and accordingly, the Company became obligated to issue to the former security holders of Hantro an additional 12,500,000 shares of On2 common stock (the maximum number of shares issuable as contingent payment). Certain of the former Hantro security holders requested that the Company defer the issuance of a total of 1,399,560 of these shares until later in 2008. On July 8, 2008, the Company issued 11,100,440 of the shares due to the former Hantro security holders, and agreed to issue the remaining 1,399,560 shares when so instructed. Additionally, on July 8, 2008, the Company issued 32,000 shares of restricted stock to certain members of the Board of Directors.

(15) Related Party Transactions

During the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, the Company retained McGuireWoods LLP to perform certain legal services on our behalf and incurred approximately $148,000 and $169,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, respectively, and $271,000 and $537,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, respectively, for such legal services. William A. Newman, a director of our Company, was a partner of McGuireWoods LLP until May 2008. Subsequent to May 2008, Mr. Newman became a partner at Sullivan & Worcester LLP and we incurred $27,000 in legal service fees to Sullivan & Worcester LLP for the six months ended June 30, 2008.

Forward-Looking Statements

This document contains forward-looking statements concerning our expectations, plans, objectives, future financial performance and other statements that are not historical facts. These statements are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. In most cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “may,” “might,” “will,” “would,” “can”, “could,” “should,” “expect,” “foresee,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “assume,” “believe,” “estimate,” “predict,” “potential,” “objective,” “forecast,” “goal” or “continue,” the negative of such terms, their cognates, or other comparable terminology. Forward-looking statements include statements with respect to:
 
• 
future revenues, income taxes, net loss per share, acquisition costs and related amortization, and other measures of results of operations;
   
• 
the effects of acquiring Hantro;
   
difficulties in controlling expenses, legal compliance matters or internal control over financial reporting review, improvement and remediation;
   
risks associated with the ineffectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting and our ability to remediate material weaknesses;
   
• 
the financial performance and growth of our business, including future international growth;
   
• 
our financial position and the availability of resources;
   
• 
future competition; and
   
• 
the degree of seasonality in our revenue.
 
These statements are only predictions, and actual events or results may differ materially. The forward-looking statements are based on management’s beliefs and assumption using information available at the time. We cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements. Factors that may cause actual results to differ are often presented with the forward-looking statements themselves. Additionally, other risks that may cause actual results to differ from predicted results are set forth, and in “Risk Factors That May Affect Future Operating Results" in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007.
 
Many of the forward-looking statements are subject to additional risks related to our need to either secure additional financing or to increase revenues to support our operations or business or technological factors. We believe that between the funds we have on hand and the funds we expect to generate, we have sufficient funds to finance our operations for the next 12 months. However, additional funds may be required in order to pursue strategic opportunities or for capital expenditures. In addition, there is no assurance that additional funds will not be required to support our operations. In this regard, the business and operations of the Company are subject to substantial risks that increase the uncertainty inherent in the forward-looking statements contained in this Form 10-Q. In evaluating our business, you should give careful consideration to the information set forth below under the caption “Risk Factors That May Affect Future Operating Results" in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007 in addition to the other information set forth herein.

We undertake no duty to update any of the forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. In light of the foregoing, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on the forward-looking statements contained in this report.

Costs Associated with Restatement of Financial Statements

Since December 31, 2007, we have incurred legal and accounting and other costs related to the Audit Committee review and restatement of our financial statements for the second and third quarters of 2007. These restatements are set forth in Amendment No. 1 to our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, filed on June 27, 2008 and Amendment No. 1 to our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended September 30, 2007, both filed on June 27, 2008, and are also described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007, filed on June 28, 2008. In connection with this, we incurred costs of approximately $2,186,000, as of June 30, 2008, of which we expensed approximately $373,000 in the first quarter of 2008 and an additional $1,813,000 in the second quarter of 2008.  We expensed these costs in the period in which the legal, accounting and other services are provided and we recorded these costs as general and administrative expenses. These costs will have a material adverse effect on our net loss for the period in which they are expensed and on our liquidity for the period in which they are paid. The Company believes it continues to have sufficient cash and other resources available to meet working capital and other needs that might arise over the next twelve months.
 
Acquisition of Hantro Products Oy

On May 21, 2007, we entered into an exchange agreement with Nexit Ventures Oy, as the authorized representative of the holders of all outstanding equity securities (including outstanding share options) of Hantro to acquire all outstanding equity securities of Hantro in exchange for cash and common stock. We completed the acquisition on November 1, 2007 for a total purchase price of $49,501,000. Under the terms of the exchange agreement, On2 paid $6,608,102 in cash and issued 25,438,817 shares of the Company's common stock, par value $.01 per share, directly to the Hantro security holders, of which two million On2 shares are being held in escrow until the anniversary of the Hantro closing to secure the indemnification obligations of the shareholders of Hantro. At that time, Hantro and its subsidiary became wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company.

The exchange agreement also required On2 to issue additional shares of common stock, depending on Hantro’s net revenue in 2007. Hantro’s 2007 net revenue exceeded €9,000,000, and accordingly, the Company became obligated to issue to the former security holders of Hantro an additional 12,500,000 shares of On2 common stock (the maximum number of shares issuable as contingent payment). Certain of the former Hantro security holders requested that the Company defer the issuance of a total of 1,399,560 of these shares until later in 2008. On July 8, 2008, the Company issued 11,100,440 of the shares due to the former Hantro security holders, and agreed to issue the remaining 1,399,560 shares when so instructed.
 
Overview
 
On2 Technologies is a developer of video compression technology and technology that enables multimedia in resource-limited environments, such as cellular networks transmitting to battery operated mobile handsets or High Definition (HD) video over the Internet. We have developed a proprietary technology platform and the TrueMotion® VPx family (e.g., VP6®, VP7™) of video compression/decompression (“codec”) software to deliver high-quality video at the lowest possible data rates over proprietary networks and the Internet to personal computers, wireless devices, set-top boxes and other devices. Unlike many other video codecs that are based on standard compression specifications set by industry groups (e.g., MPEG-2 and H.264), our video compression/decompression technology is based solely on intellectual property that we developed and own ourselves. In addition, through our wholly-owned subsidiary, On2 Finland (formerly Hantro), a Finnish corporation which we acquired on November 1, 2007, we license to chip and mobile handset manufacturers the hardware and software designs that make the encoding or decoding of video possible on devices such as mobile handsets, set top boxes, portable media players and cameras. On2 Finland’s headquarters and research and development teams are based in Oulu, Finland and it has a global sales network with satellite offices in Korea, Japan, Taiwan, Germany, Hong Kong and Mainland China. We also provide integration, customization and support services to enable high quality video on, and faster interoperability between devices.

Since 2004, we have licensed our video compression technology to Macromedia, Inc. (now Adobe Systems Incorporated) for use in the Flash multimedia player. In anticipation of Adobe using our codec in the Flash platform, we launched our business of developing and marketing video encoding software for the Flash platform.

On2’s goal is to be a premier provider of video compression software and hardware technology and compression tools. We are striving to achieve that goal and the goal of building a stable base of quarterly revenues by implementing the following key strategies:
 
Continuing our research and development efforts to improve our current codecs and developing new technologies that increase the quality of video technology and improve the experience of end users;
   
Continuing our research and development efforts to design hardware decoders and encoders that minimize the space used on a chip and to continue to improve the quality of those products;
   
Using the success of current customer implementations of our TrueMotion technology (e.g., Adobe Flash 8, Skype) and other high-profile customers (e.g., Sun Microsystems) to increase our brand recognition, promote new business and encourage proliferation across platforms;

Updating and enhancing our existing consumer products, such as the Flix line and embedded technologies;
 
Employing flexible licensing strategies to offer customers more attractive business terms than those available for competing technologies;
 
- 20 -

 
Attempting to negotiate licensing arrangements with customers that provide for receipt of recurring revenue and/or that offer us the opportunity to market products that complement our customers implementations of our software; and
   
Using the expertise of our subsidiary, On2 Finland, to develop hardware designs of our TrueMotion codecs and optimizations for embedded processors that will allow those products to be easily implemented on devices.
 
We earn revenue chiefly through licensing our software technology and hardware designs and providing specialized software engineering and consulting services to customers. In addition to up-front license fees, we often require that customers pay us royalties in connection with their use of our software and hardware products. The royalties may come in the form of either a fee for each unit of the customer’s products containing our software products or hardware designs that are sold or distributed or payments based on a percentage of the revenues that the customer earns from any of its products or services that use our software. Royalties may be subject to guaranteed minimum amounts (e.g., minimum annual royalties) and/or maximum amounts (e.g., annual caps) that may vary substantially from deal to deal.
 
We also sell additional products and services that relate to our existing relationships with licensees of our TrueMotion codec products. For instance, if a customer has licensed our software to develop its own proprietary video format and video players, we may sell encoding software to users who want to encode video for playback on that customer’s players, or we may provide engineering services to companies that want to modify our customer’s software for use on a specific platform, such as a cell phone. As with royalties or revenue share arrangements, complementary sales of encoding software or engineering services should allow us to participate in the success of our customers’ products. For instance, if a customer’s video platform does well commercially, we would expect there to be a market for encoding software and/or engineering services in support of that platform.
 
We made the decision to acquire Hantro in large part because of our recognition of the strategic importance of implementing our TrueMotion codecs in hardware and developing highly optimized software libraries for operation on the digital signal processors (DSPs) used in embedded devices. The Hantro acquisition has allowed us to increase the resources devoted to improving the ease of implementation of our codecs across platforms. Prior to the acquisition, we did not have off-the-shelf optimized software that we could license to customers who were interested in implementing our codecs on devices. Those customers were therefore required to pay us to customize our software, or to perform the customizations themselves, or to hire third-party consultants to perform the customizations. The Hantro acquisition has given us access to experienced internal resources to enable us to develop hardware and software implementations that will allow customers to implement our codecs quickly and efficiently on embedded devices.
 
As part of our strategy to develop complementary products that could allow us to capitalize on our customers’ success, in 2005 we completed the acquisition from Wildform, Inc., of its Flix line of encoding software. The Flix software allows users to prepare video and other multimedia content for playback on the Adobe Flash player, which is one of the most widely distributed multimedia players. Adobe is currently using our VP6 software as the video engine for Flash 8 video, which is used in the Flash 8 and Flash 9 players. We therefore believed that there was an opportunity for us to sell Flash 8 encoding software to end users, such as video professionals and web designers, and to software development companies that wish to add Flash 8 encoding functionality to their software. We concluded that we could best take advantage of the anticipated success of Flash 8 by taking the most up-to-date Flash 8 encoding software straight from the company that developed Flash 8 video and combining it with the already well-known Flix brand, which has existed since the advent of Flash video and has a loyal following among users. Following Adobe’s announcement in late 2007 of support for the H.264 codec in its Flash 9 player, we announced support for H.264 in our Flix products and have been adding support for additional codecs. These additional features have helped to make the Flix product line a more complete encoding solution for users.

A primary factor that will be critical to our success is our ability to improve continually on our current TrueMotion video compression technology, so that it streams the highest-quality video at the lowest transmission rates (bit rate). We believe that our video compression software is highly efficient, allowing customers to stream good quality video (as compared with that of our competitors) at low bit rates (i.e., over slow connections) and unsurpassed high-resolution video at higher bit rates (i.e., over broadband connections). As connection speeds increase, however, the advantage that our highly efficient software has over competing technology may decrease.
 
Another factor that may affect our success is the relative complexity of our TrueMotion video compression software compared with other compression software producing comparable compression rates and image quality. Software with lower complexity can run on a computer chip that is less powerful, and therefore generally less expensive, than would be required to run software that is comparatively more complex. In addition, the process of getting software to operate on a chip is easier if the software is less complex. Increased compression rates frequently result in increased complexity. While potential customers desire software that produces the highest possible compression rates while producing the best possible decompressed image, they also want to keep production costs low by using the lowest-powered and accordingly least expensive chips that will still allow them to perform the processing they require. In addition, in some applications, such as mobile devices, constraints such as size and battery life rather than price issues limit the power of the chips embedded in such devices. Of course, in devices where a great deal of processing power can be devoted to video compression and decompression, the issue of software complexity is less important. In addition, in certain applications, savings in chip costs related to the use of low complexity software may be offset by increased costs (or reduced revenue) stemming from less efficient compression (e.g., increased bandwidth costs).
 
One of the most significant recent trends in our business is our increasing reliance on the success of the product deployments of our customers. As referenced above, our license agreements with customers increasingly provide for the payment of license fees that are dependent on the number of units of a customer’s product incorporating our software that are sold or the amount of revenue generated by a customer from the sale of products or services that incorporate our software. We have chosen this royalty-dependent licensing model because, as a company of 114 employees competing in a market that offers a vast range of video-enabled devices, we do not have the product development or marketing resources to develop and market end-to-end video solutions. Instead, our codec software is primarily intended to be used as a building block for companies that are developing end-to-end video products and/or services.
 
Under our agreements with certain customers, we have retained the right to market products that complement those customer applications. These arrangements allow us to take advantage of our customers’ superior ability to produce and market end-to-end video products, while offering those customers the benefit of having us produce technologically-advanced products that should contribute to the success of their applications. As with arrangements in which we receive royalties, the ability to market complementary products can yield revenues in excess of any initial, one-time license fee. In instances where we have licensed our products to well-known customers, our right to sell complementary products may be very valuable. But unlike royalties, which we receive automatically without any additional effort on our part, the successful sale of complementary products requires that we effectively execute an end-user product development and marketing program. Until recently, we have generally produced software targeted at developers, who integrate our software into their products, and developing and marketing products aimed at end users is therefore a relatively new business for us.

- 22 -


We believe that we have adopted the licensing model most appropriate for a business of our size and expertise. However, a natural result of this licensing model is that the amount of revenue we generate is highly dependent on the success of our customers’ product deployments. In certain circumstances, we may decide to reduce the amount of up-front license fees and charge a higher per-unit royalty. If the products of customers with whom we have established per unit royalty or revenue sharing relationships or for which we expect to market complementary products do not generate significant sales, these revenues may not attain significant levels. Conversely, if one or more of such customers’ products are widely adopted, our revenues will likely be enhanced.
 
We are continuing to participate in the trend towards the proliferation of user generated video content on the web. As Internet use has grown worldwide and Internet connection speeds have increased, sites such as MySpace and YouTube, which allow visitors to create and view user generated content, have sprung up and seen their popularity soar. Although initially consumer generated content consisted primarily of text content and still photographs, the availability of relatively inexpensive digital video cameras and video-enabled mobile phones, the growth in the number of users with access to broadband Internet connections, and improvements in video compression technology have contributed to a rapid rise in consumer-created video content. Weblogs (blogs) and podcasts (broadcasts of audio content to iPod® and MP3 devices) have evolved to include video content. The continued proliferation of UGC video on the Internet and the popularity of Adobe® Flash® video on the web have had a positive effect on our business and have given us the opportunity to license Flash encoding tools for use in video blogs, video podcasts, and to UGC sites or to individual users of those services.
 
We have recently experienced an increased interest by UGC site operators and device manufacturers to allow users to access UGC content by means of mobile handsets, set-top boxes, and other devices. Many of the UGC sites use Flash 8 VP6 video, and while Flash 8 video is available on a vast number of PCs, it has only recently become available on chip-based devices, such as mobile devices and set top boxes. We are therefore witnessing demand on two fronts: (1) demand to integrate Flash 8 video onto non-PC platforms, and (2) until most devices can play Flash 8 content, demand to provide transcoding software that allows Flash 8 content to be decoded and re-encoded into a format (such as the 3GPP standard) that is supported on devices. We are actively working to provide solutions for both of these demands and plan to continue to respond as necessary to the evolution and migration of Flash video.
 
H.264 continues to rise as a competitor in the video compression field. H.264 is a standards-based codec that is the successor to MPEG-4. We believe that our technology is superior to H.264, and that we can offer significantly more flexibility in licensing terms than customers get when licensing H.264. H.264 has nevertheless gained significant adoption by potential customers because, as a standards-based codec, it has the advantage of having numerous developers who are programming to the H.264 standard and developing products based on that standard. In addition, a number of manufacturers of multimedia processors have done the work necessary to have H.264 operate on their chips, which makes H.264 attractive to potential customers who would like to enable video on devices. For example, Apple Inc. uses H.264 in its QuickTime player and has thus chosen H.264 for the current generation of video iPods. Finally, there is already a significant amount of professional content that has been encoded in H.264. These advantages may make H.264 attractive to potential customers and allow them to implement a solution based on H.264 with less initial development time and expense than a solution using On2 TrueMotion video might require. In addition, there are certain customers that prefer to license standards-based codecs. In August 2007, our customer Adobe announced that the latest version of the Flash video player would support H.264. We continue to believe that VP6 will be an important part of the Flash video ecosystem for three reasons: (1) Adobe has in the past provided backwards compatibility with all generations of Flash video codecs; (2) VP6 has certain performance advantages over H.264 (e.g., HD VP6 content may be played back on a lower-powered processor than HD H.264 content); and (3) there is a vast amount of existing VP6 content that consumers want on portable and mobile devices.

The market for digital media creation and delivery technology is constantly changing and becoming more competitive. Our strategy includes focusing on providing our customers with video compression/decompression technology that delivers the highest possible video quality at the lowest possible data rates. To do this, we devote a significant portion of our engineering capacity to research and development. We also are devoting significant attention to enabling our codecs to operate on a wide array of chips, both in software and in hardware. Our acquisition of Hantro has significantly increased the resources that we can devote to these efforts. We have also increased the number of our engineers who integrate our codecs on chips, and we have cultivated relationships with chip companies to enable those companies to perform such integration. By increasing support for our technology on the chips that power embedded devices, we hope to encourage use by customers who want to develop video-enabled consumer products in a short timeframe.
 
A continuing trend in our business is the growing presence of Microsoft, Inc. as a significant competitor in the market for digital media creation and distribution technology. In 2007, Microsoft released Silverlight, a rich Internet application that allows users to integrate multimedia features, such as vector graphics, audio and video, into web applications. Silverlight may compete directly with Flash. If Silverlight gains market share at the expense of Flash, it could have a negative impact on our Flix business. In addition, Microsoft VC1 format also competes in the marketplace with H.264 and our VPx technologies. We believe that our VPx technologies have the same advantages over VC1 as they do over H.264. Microsoft’s practices have caused, and may continue to cause, pricing pressure on our revenue generating products and services and may affect usage of our competing products and formats. Microsoft’s marketing and licensing model has in some cases led to, and could continue to lead to, longer sales cycles, decreased sales, loss of existing and potential customers and reduced market share. In addition, we believe that Microsoft has used and may continue to use its financial resources and its competitive position in the computer industry to secure preferential or exclusive distribution, use and bundling contracts for its media delivery technologies, and products with third parties, such as ISPs, content delivery networks, content providers, entertainment and media companies, VARs and OEMs, including third parties with whom we have relationships.
 
The Microsoft DRM (digital rights management) product, which prevents unauthorized copying and re-distribution of proprietary content, is widely accepted among movie studios and others in the content industry. Unfortunately, Microsoft’s DRM does not integrate well with non-Microsoft video and audio software, such as ours. We believe that the latest generation of codec technology, which includes VP7, is superior to Microsoft’s video compression software. We also believe that companies could become more comfortable with using DRM technology produced by companies other than Microsoft.
 
Although we expect that competition from Microsoft, H.264 developers, and others will continue to intensify, we expect that our video compression technology will remain competitive and that our relatively small size will allow us to innovate in the video compression field and respond to emerging trends more quickly than monolithic organizations like Microsoft and the MPEG consortium. We focus on developing relationships with customers who find it appealing to work with a smaller company that is not bound by complex and rigid standards-based licenses and fee structures and that is able to offer sophisticated custom engineering services. We believe our ability to provide both our VPx codecs and standards based codecs has positioned us uniquely as a one stop shop for the implementation of multiple codecs on a variety of devices.
 
Another one of our primary businesses is the development and marketing of digital electronic hardware designs (known as register transfer level designs or RTL) of video and audio codecs to manufacturers of computer chips and multimedia devices. A licensee of our RTL design might use that product to implement a video decoder on the licensee’s chip, and the decoder would be built into the circuitry of the licensee’s chip. One of the factors affecting our hardware business is our ability to develop efficient RTL designs that minimize the physical area of a chip devoted to our designs. Increasing the surface area of a chip increases the manufacturer’s production costs. Our ability to produce RTL designs that require less surface area than our competitors’ designs results in lower production costs for our licensees and gives us a competitive advantage.

- 24 -


Another factor affecting our hardware business is our reputation for producing reliable products that have been thoroughly tested, are accompanied by good documentation, and are supported by a strong technical support team. Chip and device manufacturers that are potential customers for our hardware products develop the products with which they will integrate our RTL designs. Our technology is hard-wired into chip circuitry rather than loaded as software. In connection with high volume chip production, the per-unit price of a specialized chip that has had multimedia support built into the chip can be substantially less than the costs of using a more powerful software-upgradable digital signal processor (DSP). However, any errors in the software operating on a DSP can be relatively easily corrected through a software upgrade or patch, while errors that have been hardwired into a circuit are more difficult, and may be impossible, to correct. Because customers for our RTL designs will invest a great deal of time and money into the designs, our reputation as a well-established provider of reliable, well-supported RTL designs is an important factor in our continuing success.
 
As multimedia content has proliferated on the Internet, manufacturers of mobile devices such as cell phones and personal media players (PMPs) have expanded their product lines to support playback and creation of that content. As noted above, in general, manufacturers have two options to add multimedia support to their devices. They can use either a specialized chip that has multimedia support hard-wired into it (RTL) or a more powerful DSP that can run software to provide the necessary multimedia functions. Hardware implementations that require RTL designs such as ours offer a number of advantages over DSPs with software layers:
 
 
·
RTLs are cheaper to produce in high volumes;
 
 
·
They use less energy, which prolongs battery life of mobile devices;
 
 
·
They produce less heat, which has important implications for, among other things, circuit design; and
 
 
·
They allow for simultaneous encoding and decoding of HD video content.
 
But there are also disadvantages to hardware implementations of multimedia tools:
 
 
·
Initial implementation costs are high; and
 
 
·
Hardware implementations are generally not upgradeable.
 
Similarly, software-upgradable DSPs offer certain advantages:
 
 
·
Modifying software to operate on a DSP is easier and less expensive then implementing the software in hardware, reducing initial project costs and speeding deployment;
 
 
·
DSPs do not require costly re-designs and re-tooling to operate new software; and
 
 
·
They are more easily upgradeable.
 
But they also have certain disadvantages:
 
 
·
Per-chip costs are higher than pure hardware solutions as volumes increase;

- 25 -


 
·
The increased processor power required to operate diverse software increases heat and power consumption.
 
Manufacturers that want to maintain the ability to upgrade mobile devices and PMPs to support new multimedia software may opt for DSPs rather than hardware solutions, which could impact our business of licensing hardware codecs. Nevertheless, we believe that even if manufacturers do choose to use DSPs in their devices, it is likely that many will continue to implement hardware codecs alongside the DSPs to take advantage of the efficiency of those hardware implementations. In addition, support for DSPs on multimedia devices would have the benefit of making those devices more easily upgraded to new generations of our TrueMotion codecs. We are continuing to monitor this trend and make the adjustments to our business model necessary to address changing markets.
 
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

This discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based on our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements that have been prepared under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires our management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the discussion of our critical accounting policies and our annual report for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007 on Form 10K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 27, 2008. Our critical accounting policies and estimates are:

 
Revenue recognition;
 
Accounts receivable allowance;
 
Acquisitions;
 
Equity-based compensation; and
 
Valuation of goodwill and intangible assets, including impairment, and other long-lived assets.

Revenue Recognition. We currently recognize revenue from professional services and the sale of software licenses. As described below, significant management judgments and estimates must be made and used in determining the amount of revenue recognized in any given accounting period. Material differences may result in the amount and timing of our revenue for any given accounting period depending upon judgments made by or estimates utilized by management.

We recognize revenue in accordance with SOP 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition (SOP 97-2), as amended by SOP 98-4, Deferral of the Effective Date of SOP 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition,” SOP 98-9, “Modification of SOP 97-2 with Respect to Certain Transactions (SOP 98-9) and Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104 (SAB 104). Under each arrangement, revenues are recognized when a non-cancelable agreement has been signed and the customer acknowledges an unconditional obligation to pay, the products or applications have been delivered, there are no uncertainties surrounding customer acceptance, the fees are fixed and determinable, and collectibility is probable. Revenues recognized from multiple-element software arrangements are allocated to each element of the arrangement based on the fair values of the elements, such as product licenses, post-contract customer support, or training. The determination of the fair value is based on the vendor specific objective evidence available to us. If such evidence of the fair value of each element of the arrangement does not exist, we defer all revenue from the arrangement until such time that evidence of the fair value does exist or until all elements of the arrangement are delivered.

- 26 -


Our software licensing arrangements typically consist of two elements: a software license and post-contract customer support (“PCS”). We recognize license revenues based on the residual method after all elements other than PCS have been delivered as prescribed by SOP 98-9. We recognize PCS revenues over the term of the maintenance contract or on a “per usage” basis, whichever is stated in the contract. Vendor specific objective evidence of the fair value of PCS is determined by reference to the price the customer will have to pay for PCS when it is sold separately (i.e. the renewal rate). Most of our license agreements offer additional PCS at a stated price. Revenue is recognized on a per copy basis for licensed software when each copy of the licensed software purchased by the customer or reseller is delivered. We do not allow returns, exchanges or price protection for sales of software licenses to our customers or resellers, and we do not allow our resellers to purchase software licenses under consignment arrangements.

When engineering and consulting services are sold together with a software license, the arrangement typically requires customization and integration of the software into a third party hardware platform. In these arrangements, we require the customer to pay a fixed fee for the engineering and consulting services and a licensing fee in the form of a per-unit royalty. We account for engineering and consulting arrangements in accordance with SOP 81-1, Accounting for Performance of Construction Type and Certain Production Type Contracts, (SOP 81-1). When reliable estimates are available for the costs and efforts necessary to complete the engineering or consulting services and those services do not include contractual milestones or other acceptance criteria, we recognize revenue under the percentage of completion contract method based upon input measures, such as hours. When such estimates are not available, we defer all revenue recognition until we have completed the contract and have no further obligations to the customer.

Accounts Receivable Allowance. We perform ongoing credit evaluations of our customers and adjust credit limits, as determined by our review of current credit information. We continuously monitor collections and payments from our customers and maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts based upon our historical experience, our anticipation of uncollectible accounts receivable and any specific customer collection issues that we have identified. Our credit losses have historically been low and within our expectations.

Acquisitions. We are required to allocate the purchase price of acquired companies to the tangible and intangible assets acquired, liabilities assumed, as well as purchased in-process research and development (IPR&D) based on the estimated fair values. We use various models to determine the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. These models include the discounted cash flow (DCF), the royalty savings method and the cost savings approach. The valuation requires management to make significant estimates and assumptions, especially with respect to long-lived and intangible assets.

Critical estimates in valuing certain of the intangible assets include, but are not limited to, future expected cash flows from customer contracts, customer lists, distribution agreements and acquired developed technologies and patents; the acquired company’s brand awareness and market position as well as assumptions about the period of time the brand will continue to be used in the combined company’s product portfolio; and discount rates. We derive our discount rates from our internal rate of return based on our internal forecasts and we may adjust the discount rate giving consideration to specific risk factors of each asset. Management’s estimates of fair value are based upon assumptions believed to be reasonable but which are inherently uncertain and unpredictable. Assumptions may be incomplete or inaccurate, and unanticipated events and circumstances may occur.

Equity-Based Compensation. The Company adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 123R effective January 1, 2006, using the modified prospective transition method. Under the modified prospective method, non-cash compensation expense is recognized under the fair value method for the portion of outstanding share based awards granted prior to the adoption of SFAS 123R for which service has not been rendered, and for any future share based awards granted or modified after adoption. Accordingly, periods prior to adoption have not been restated. We recognize share-based compensation cost associated with awards subject to graded vesting in accordance with the accelerated method specified in FASB Interpretation No. 28 pursuant to which each vesting tranche is treated as a separate award. The compensation cost associated with each vesting tranche is recognized as expense evenly over the vesting period of that tranche.

- 27 -


Valuation of Goodwill, Intangible Assets and Other Long-Lived Assets. In June 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets” (“SFAS No. 142”). SFAS 142 requires goodwill and other intangible assets to be tested for impairment at least annually, and written off when impaired, rather than being amortized as previously required.

Long-lived assets and identifiable intangibles with finite lives are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell. As of June 30, 2008, we believe that no such impairment has occurred.

Results of Operations

Revenue 

Revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2008 was $3,265,000, as compared to $2,369,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2007. Revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2008 was $7,717,000, as compared to $5,184,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2007. Revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007 was derived primarily from the sale of software licenses and RTL licenses and engineering and consulting services. The increase in revenue for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 is primarily attributed to the revenue contribution of $1,313,000 and $2,860,000, respectively, from our subsidiary, On2 Finland (formerly Hantro), acquired in November 2007.

Costs of Revenue 

Costs of revenue includes personnel and related overhead expenses, royalties paid for software that is incorporated into the Company’s software, consulting compensation costs, operating lease costs and depreciation and amortization costs. Costs of revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2008 was $1,194,000 as compared to $389,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2007. Costs of revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2008 was $2,624,000 as compared to $812,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2007. The increase of $1,812,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2008, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2007 is primarily attributable to an increase in production and engineering costs associated with On2 Finland of $1,921,000 of which $1,253,000 is amortization of the Hantro purchased technology, an increase in equity based compensation of $147,000, offset by a decrease in production and engineering costs for the US operations of $256,000 due to less hours allocated by our engineering staff.

Operating expenses

The Company's operating expenses consist of research and development, sales and marketing and general and administrative expenses and equity-based compensation. Operating expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2008 were $10,441,000 as compared to $2,702,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2007. Operating expenses were $19,706,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2008 as compared to $5,325,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2007.

Research and Development 

Research and development expenses, excluding equity-based compensation, primarily consist of personnel and related overhead expenses and consulting compensation costs associated with the development and production of our products and services, operating lease costs and depreciation costs. Research and development expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2008 were $3,009,000 as compared to $562,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2007. The increase of $2,447,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2008 is primarily the result of an increase of $2,134,000 in research and development costs incurred by our Finnish subsidiary that utilizes a greater portion of their engineers in research and development activities and a $313,000 increase in research and development costs incurred by our US operations, that is a result of increases in personnel and related costs and an increase in the amount of hours that our engineering staff worked on development projects. Research and development expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2008 were $5,817,000 as compared to $1,055,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2007. The increase of $4,762,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2008 is primarily a result of an increase of $4,030,000 in research and development costs incurred by our Finnish subsidiary that utilizes a greater portion of their engineers in research and development activities and a $732,000 increase in research and development costs incurred by our US operations.
 
Sales and Marketing 

Sales and marketing expenses, excluding equity-based compensation, consist primarily of salaries and related costs, commissions, business development costs, tradeshow costs, marketing and promotional costs incurred to create brand awareness and public relations expenses. Sales and marketing expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2008 were $1,875,000 as compared to $614,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2007. The increase of $1,261,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2008 is primarily a result of an increase of $807,000 in sales and marketing personnel and related costs attributable to our Finnish subsidiary and a $454,000 increase in sales and marketing costs incurred by US operations that is a result of increases in personnel and travel related expenses for marketing. Sales and marketing expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2008 were $3,764,000 as compared to $1,210,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2007. The increase of $2,554,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2008 is primarily a result of an increase of $2,185,000 in sales and marketing personnel and related costs attributable to our Finnish subsidiary and a $369,000 increase in sales and marketing costs incurred by US operations that is a result of increases in personnel and related costs.

General and Administrative 

General and administrative expenses, excluding equity-based compensation, consist primarily of salaries and related costs for general corporate functions including finance, human resources, management information systems, legal and facilities, outside legal and other professional fees and insurance. General and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2008 were $3,926,000, as compared to $983,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2007. The increase of $2,943,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2008 is primarily due to an increase in legal and accounting fees of $1,813,000 related to the Audit Committee’s review of certain 2007 sales contracts in connection with the restatement and $670,000 in related costs attributable to our Finnish subsidiary, and an increase in consulting fees related to the implementation of Sarbanes Oxley Section 404 and other consulting and professional services. General and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2008 were $6,694,000, as compared to $1,946,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2007. The $4,748,000 increase for the six months ended June 30, 2008 is primarily due to an increase in legal and accounting fees of $2,349,000 of which $2,186,000 is related to the Audit Committee’s review of certain 2007 sales contracts in connection with the restatement, a $541,000 increase in professional fees related to the implementation of Sarbanes Oxley Section 404 and other consulting and professional services, a $187,000 increase in personnel and related expenses, and an increase of $1,531,000 in related costs attributable to our Finnish subsidiary.

Equity-Based Compensation

Equity based compensation, which is presented separately, was $516,000 and $969,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, respectively. Equity-based compensation of $79,000 and $162,000 is included in cost of revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, respectively. Equity based compensation was $154,000 and $302,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, respectively. Equity-based compensation of $14,000 and $15,000 is included in cost of revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, respectively. The increase is primarily due to the amortization of options granted in association with the acquisition of our Finnish subsidiary on November 1, 2007.

Other income (expense), net 

Interest income (expense), net primarily consists of interest incurred for capital lease obligations and long-term debt, offset by interest earned on the Company’s invested cash balances. Interest income (expense), net was $(14,000) and $61,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, respectively, as compared to $81,000 and $111,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, respectively.

Other income (expense), net primarily consists of the change in the fair value of the warrant derivative liability and realized losses on marketable securities. The decrease in expense of $3,710,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2008 is primarily a result of the elimination of the derivative liability in the second quarter of 2007 which accounted for $3,582,000, the elimination of a one time fee for a warrant amendment which accounted for $86,000 and the sale of marketable securities at a loss which accounted for $27,000. The warrant derivative liability was recorded in connection with the August 2006 sale of common stock and warrants to a group of investors led by Midsummer Capital.

Other comprehensive income (loss)

Other comprehensive income (loss) consists of the foreign currency translation adjustment. The foreign currency translation adjustment for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 was $(57,000) and $3,423,000, respectively.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At June 30, 2008, we had cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments of $8,129,000 as compared to $15,094,000 at December 31, 2007. At June 30, 2008, the Company had working capital of $3,307,000, as compared to $13,246,000 at December 31, 2007.

Net cash (used in) provided by operating activities was $(4,077,000) and $367,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively. The decrease in net cash used in operating activities is primarily related to a net loss of $11,914,000 and a decrease in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $679,000, partially offset by a decrease in accounts receivable of $3,885,000, an increase in deferred revenue of $1,745,000, an increase in depreciation and amortization of $1,843,000 and an increase in equity-based compensation of $969,000.
 
- 30 -

 
Net cash provided by (used in) investing activities was $5,186,000 and $(1,230,000) for the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively. The increase in net cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2007 is primarily a result of the sale of short-term investments and a decrease in deferred acquisition costs associated with the then-pending Hantro acquisition, offset by increases in the purchase of short-term investments and property and equipment.
 
Net cash (used in) provided by financing activities was $(2,562,000) and $6,276,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively. The decrease is primarily attributable to a decrease in proceeds received from the exercise of common stock options and warrants and an increase in payments on short-term and long-term debt.

We currently have material commitments for the next 12 months under our operating lease arrangements and borrowings. These arrangements consist primarily of lease arrangements for our office space in Clifton Park and Tarrytown, New York, Cambridge UK, and Oulu and Espoo, Finland. The aggregate required payments for the next 12 months under these arrangements are $831,000. Notwithstanding the above, our most significant non-contractual operating costs for the next 12 months are compensation and benefit costs, insurance costs and general overhead costs such as telephone and utilities.

At June 30, 2008, short-term borrowings consisted of the following:

A line of credit with a Finnish bank for $711,000 (€450,000 at June 30, 2008). The line of credit has no expiration date. Borrowings under the line of credit bear interest at one month EURIBOR plus 1.25% (total of 5.722% at June 30, 2008). The bank also requires a commission payable at .45% of the loan principal. Borrowings are collateralized by substantially all assets of Hantro and a guarantee by On2. The outstanding balance on the line of credit was $-0- at June 30, 2008.

At June 30, 2008, long-term debt consisted of the following:

Unsecured notes payable to a Finnish funding agency of $3,122,000, including interest at 1.75%, due at dates ranging from January 2009 to December 2011; $338,000 to a Finnish bank, including interest at the 3-month EURIBOR (4.94% at June 30, 2008) plus 1.1%, due March 2011, secured by a guarantee by On2, and the Finnish Government Organization, which also requires additional interest at 2.65% of the loan principal; and an unsecured note payable to a Finnish financing company of $237,000, including interest at the 6 month EURIBOR (5.088% at June 30, 2008) plus .5%, due March 2011.
 
The Company believes that existing funds are sufficient to fund its operations through June 30, 2009. The Company plans to increase cash flows from operations principally from increases in revenue generated from its compression technology services and products. The Company may also pursue additional financings. See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Risk Factors That May Affect Future Operating Results” in the Company’s 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007.

We have experienced significant operating losses and negative operating cash flows to date. Our management's plan to increase our cash flows from operations relies significantly on increases in revenue generated from our technology services and products. However, there are no assurances that we will be successful in effecting such increases. The market for distribution of broadband technology services is highly competitive. Additionally, our capital requirements depend on numerous factors, including market acceptance of our technology and services, research and development costs and the resources we spend on marketing and selling our products and services. Additionally, we continue to evaluate investments in complementary businesses, products and services, some of which may be significant.

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 the Company's financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to investors.

Impact of Recently-Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2008 the FASB has issued SFAS Statement No. 162, The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. Statement 162 is intended to improve financial reporting by identifying a consistent framework, or hierarchy, for selecting accounting principles to be used in preparing financial statements that are presented in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for nongovernmental entities. SFAS 162 is effective 60 days following the SEC's approval of the PCAOB amendments to AU Section 411. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting SFAS 162 on its financial reporting.

On March 19, 2008, the FASB issued SFAS Statement No. 161, Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities - an Amendment of FASB Statement 133. SFAS 161 enhances required disclosures regarding derivatives and hedging activities, including enhanced disclosures regarding how: (a) an entity uses derivative instruments; (b) derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under FASB Statement No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities; and (c) derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entity’s financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. Specifically, SFAS 161 requires:

 
·
Disclosure of the objectives for using derivative instruments be disclosed in terms of underlying risk and accounting designation;

 
·
Disclosure of the fair values of derivative instruments and their gains and losses in a tabular format;

·
Disclosure of information about credit-risk-related contingent features; and

 
·
Cross-reference from the derivative footnote to other footnotes in which derivative-related information is disclosed.

SFAS 161 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008. Early application is encouraged.

The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting SFAS 161 on its financial position and results of operations.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, Non-controlling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements - An Amendment of ARB No. 51. SFAS 160 establishes new accounting and reporting standards for the non-controlling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. Specifically, this Statement requires the recognition of a non-controlling interest (minority interest) as equity in the consolidated financial statements and separate from the parent's equity. The amount of net income attributable to the non-controlling interest will be included in consolidated net income on the face of the income statement. SFAS 160 clarifies that changes in a parent's ownership interest in a subsidiary that do not result in deconsolidation are equity transactions if the parent retains its controlling financial interest. In addition, this Statement requires that a parent recognize a gain or loss in net income when a subsidiary is deconsolidated. Such gain or loss will be measured using the fair value of the non-controlling equity investment on the deconsolidation date. SFAS 160 also includes expanded disclosure requirements regarding the interests of the parent and its non-controlling interest. SFAS 160 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2008. Earlier adoption of SFAS 160 is prohibited. Although the Company will continue to evaluate the application of SFAS 160, management does not currently believe adoption will have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations or financial position.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

The Company does not currently have any material exposure to interest rate risk, commodity price risk or other relevant market rate or price risks. However, the Company does have exposure to foreign currency rate fluctuations arising from maintaining offices in the U.K. and Finland for its wholly-owned subsidiaries which transacts business in the local functional currency. The U.K. based subsidiary does not conduct any sales and all its costs are funded in United States dollars. The Finnish subsidiary conducts sales in both Euros and US dollars and pays its employees and other material obligations in Euros, and therefore can be substantially impacted by currency translation gains and losses. To date, the Company has not entered into any derivative financial instrument to manage foreign currency risk and is not currently evaluating the future use of any such financial instruments.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures:

The term "disclosure controls and procedures," as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, or Exchange Act, means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that the company files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its principal financial officers, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. There are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any system of disclosure controls and procedures, including the possibility of human error and the circumvention or overriding of the controls and procedures. Accordingly, even effective disclosure controls and procedures can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

In connection with the restatement of the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements for the second and third quarters of 2007, as described more fully under the caption “Explanatory Note” in On2’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007, management identified three material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting and reported those to our Audit Committee. The Public Company Accounting Oversight Board’s Auditing Standard No. 5 defines a material weakness as a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, that result in a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected. Based on the identification of the material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting described below, our Interim Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as the Audit Committee determined and reported to management on May 6, 2008, upon completion of the internal review described herein, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective because of the following material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting that existed as of that date:

- 33 -

 
 
·
Revenue recognition procedures – Our controls were not adequate to ensure that revenue was properly recognized when it was earned. Pursuant to American Institute of Certified Public Accountants’ Statement of Position (SOP) 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition (“SOP 97-2”) and Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104 (“SAB 104”) one element of revenue recognition is consideration of whether the collectibility of sales revenue is probable (i.e., whether the purchaser is creditworthy with respect to that transaction). We did not maintain effective procedures for the consideration of the probability that revenue is collectible. This control deficiency resulted in our incorrect recognition of revenue in our financial statements for the second and third quarters of 2007.
 
 
·
Control environment – We did not maintain an effective control environment, specifically relating to our tone at the top. This material weakness was evidenced by the control tone and control consciousness of our former Chief Executive Officer and resulted in the override and the possibility of override of controls or interference with our policies, procedures and internal control over financial reporting.
 
 
·
Allowance for Doubtful Account Procedures – Effective controls were not designed and in place to ensure that an appropriate analysis of receivables from customers was conducted, reviewed, approved and documented in order to identify and estimate required allowance for doubtful accounts in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. This material weakness resulted in a misstatement of accounts receivable, net of allowance for doubtful accounts on our condensed consolidated balance sheet at the end of the third quarter of 2007 and an understatement of our general and administrative expenses for the period.
 
(b)  Changes in Internal Controls:

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2008 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. However, in connection with the restatement of the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements for the second and third quarters of 2007, as described more fully under the caption “Explanatory Note” in On2’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007, management determined that the material weaknesses described above existed as of June 30, 2008 (pending the implementation of remediation initiatives commenced during the second quarter of 2008). As a result, during the period ended June 30, 2008, we have taken certain steps to remediate these material weaknesses, discussed below, that will constitute changes in our internal control over financial reporting in that period that materially affect our internal control over financial reporting. In addition, we are in the process of finalizing a plan and timetable for the implementation of additional remediation measures, also discussed below, to further address these weakness, which will constitute additional changes in our internal control over financial reporting that we anticipate will materially affect our internal control over financial reporting when implemented. Since identifying the material weaknesses, we have implemented remediation measures and intend to implement these additional remediation measures as soon as practicable following finalization of our plan

- 34 -


Remediation Initiatives

In response to the identified material weaknesses, our management, with oversight from the Audit Committee, has taken certain actions related to their remediation during the second quarter of 2008, prior to the filing of this report. These actions have involved meetings among (i) our Chief Financial Officer, EVP, Legal and Business Affairs (and now Interim Chief Executive Officer and Chief Operating Officer) and certain members of our accounting staff and (ii) our Chief Financial Officer, EVP, Legal and Business Affairs (and now Interim Chief Executive Officer and Chief Operating Officer) and the Audit Committee. Representatives of our independent registered public accountants and our consultant on Sarbanes-Oxley compliance attended certain of these meetings. Due to the connection between our former Chief Executive Officer and the material weakness that we identified in our control environment, he has had limited involvement in our remediation actions. Prior to the filing of this report, we have taken certain steps to remediate these material weaknesses and are in the process of finalizing a plan and timetable for the implementation of additional remediation measures. As we continue to work to finalize our plan to improve our internal control over financial reporting, we may determine to take additional remediation measures or determine to modify, or in appropriate circumstances not to complete, certain of the remediation measures described below.

From a control environment and tone at the top perspective, during the second quarter of 2008, we have taken the following remedial steps: (i) our Board of Directors sought and on June 11, 2008, obtained the resignation of our former Chief Executive Officer, Bill Joll, from all positions with us and our subsidiaries, including as an officer, employee and director, (he will remain with us as an advisor to the chief executive officer until September 30, 2008 to effect a smooth transition of customer relationships and business development opportunities); (ii) on June 10, 2008, our Board of Directors elected Matthew Frost, our EVP, Legal and Business Affairs, as Interim Chief Executive Officer and Chief Operating Officer; and (iii) we have segregated the duties of our accounting personnel from our non-accounting personnel other than those whose involvement in accounting-related matters is specifically authorized. At the time of the filing of this report, we anticipate that we will implement the following additional remediation measures with respect to this material weakness as soon as reasonably practicable: (i) establishing an independent third party ethics hotline so that employees can anonymously report violations of our Code of Ethics and other employee concerns, and educating employees about the hotline process; and (ii) revising our Code of Ethics to emphasize the importance of adherence to our policies and procedures relating to accounting and financial reporting and internal control of financial reporting and the availability of the ethics hotline for the reporting of violations of our Code of Ethics and other employee concerns.

The remedial steps we have taken during the second quarter of 2008 to address the material weakness in our revenue recognition procedures, specifically our procedures for assessing whether the collectibility of revenue is probable prior to recognition, are as follows: (i) we have revised the process that we and our operating subsidiary will follow in assessing whether the collectibilty of revenue is probable, as well as in determining that the other requirements for recognizing revenue have been met, so that this assessment occurs at the outset of the arrangement and is thereafter reviewed and confirmed in connection with our period end closing and financial statement preparation process; (ii) we have revised, formalized and expanded the documentation of the procedures we and our operating subsidiary will follow with respect to assessing probability of collectibility, as well as determining that the other requirements for recognizing revenue have been met; including, specifically, enhancing and documenting our policy with respect to the types of information that can be used in establishing creditworthiness; and (iii) we have added a position to our accounting staff and will fill this position as soon as possible. We also terminated the firm with which the sales agent who provided us falsified documents was affiliated. In addition, in the first quarter of 2008, we added a certified public accountant to our accounting and financial reporting staff. The addition of trained staff will both provide additional assistance in the accounting department and should allow other members of the accounting staff to devote additional time to responsibilities connected with financial reporting.

With respect to addressing the material weakness in the design and operation of our procedures for estimating our allowance for doubtful accounts, we have enhanced, formalized and documented our procedures for analyzing our accounts receivable from customers so that we can appropriately estimate the collectibility of receivables at the end of a period based on aging categories and information related to collection efforts and formalized and documented timely review of that information, and sign off on the recommended allowance for doubtful accounts, by senior management.

- 35 -


At the time of the filing of this report, we anticipate that we will implement the following additional remediation measures as soon as reasonably practicable: (i) continued improvement to the documentation of the procedures we and our operating subsidiary will follow with respect to determining that the requirements for recognizing revenue have been met; (ii) Company-wide training (led by our Chief Financial Officer, with the assistance of our consultant on Sarbanes-Oxley compliance, our legal personnel and other accounting and financial reporting staff, as appropriate) to enhance awareness and understanding of standards and principles for accounting and financial reporting and internal control of financial reporting; and (iii) improve the processes and procedures around the completion and review of quarterly management representation letters. The training we plan to implement will deal specifically with revenue recognition requirements and requirements related to accounts receivable and allowance for doubtful accounts and will include appropriate programs for senior management to emphasize the importance of accounting and financial reporting integrity. This training will address all of the material weaknesses we have identified.

The Audit Committee has directed management to develop a detailed plan and timetable for the implementation of the foregoing remedial measures (to the extent not already completed). The Audit Committee has approved our initial remediation efforts and will monitor the implementation. In addition, under the direction of the Audit Committee, management will continue to review and make necessary changes to the overall design of our internal control environment, as well as policies and procedures to improve the overall effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting. Our plan to remediate the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting will be finalized and implemented as soon as reasonably practicable. We will continue to use external consultants to review our procedures and assist us in testing the effectiveness in our procedures on an on-going basis.

We believe that the steps we have heretofore taken have significantly improved our internal control over financial reporting. We are committed to remediating our material weaknesses and intend that, when finalized and fully implemented, our remediation measures will address the identified material weaknesses and will strengthen our overall internal control over financial reporting as well. We are committed to continuing to improve our internal control processes and will continue to diligently and vigorously review our financial reporting controls and procedures. As we continue to evaluate and work to improve our internal control over financial reporting, we may determine to take additional measures to address control deficiencies or determine to modify, or in appropriate circumstances not to complete, certain of the remediation measures described above.

Remediation generally requires making changes to how controls are designed and then adhering to those changes for a sufficient period of time such that the effectiveness of those changes is demonstrated with an appropriate amount of consistency. We believe that we have made significant improvements in our internal control over financial reporting and are committed to remediating our material weaknesses.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

Beijing E-World

On March 31, 2006, On2 commenced arbitration against its customer, Beijing E-World, relating to a dispute arising from two license agreements that On2 and Beijing E-World entered into in June 2003.

Under those agreements, On2 licensed the source code to its video compression (codec) technology to Beijing E-World for use in Beijing E-World’s video disk (EVD) and high definition television (HDTV) products as well as for other non-EVD/HDTV products. We believe that the license agreements impose a number of obligations on Beijing E-World, including the requirements that:

- Beijing E-World pay to On2 certain minimum quarterly payments; and

- Beijing E-World use best reasonable efforts to have On2’s video codec “ported” to (i.e., integrated with) a chip to be used in EVD players.

On2 has previously commenced arbitration regarding the license agreements with Beijing E-World. In March 2005, the London Court of International Arbitration tribunal released the decision of the arbitrator, in which he dismissed On2’s claims in the prior arbitration, as well as Beijing E-World’s counterclaims, and ruled that the license agreements remained in effect; and that the parties had a continuing obligation to work towards porting On2’s software to two commercially-available DSPs.

Although over three years have passed since the arbitrator issued his March 2005 ruling, the parties have nevertheless not completed the required porting of On2’s software to two commercially available DSPs.
 
On2’s current arbitration claim alleges that, despite its obligations under the license agreements, Beijing E-World has:

- failed to pay On2 the quarterly payments of $1,232,000, which On2 believes are currently due and owing; and

- failed to use best reasonable efforts to have On2’s video codec ported to a chip.

On2 has requested that the arbitrator award it approximately $5,690,000 in damages under the contract and grant it further relief as may be just and equitable.

Beijing E-World has appeared in the arbitration, although it has not yet filed any responses to On2’s filings in the proceeding. Following Beijing E-World’s appearance, it entered into an agreement with On2 pursuant to which Beijing E-World agreed by November 30, 2006 to pay On2 an amount in settlement equal to approximately 25% of the remaining unpaid portion of the license fees set forth in the license agreements. Upon payment of the settlement payment, the parties will terminate the arbitration, the license agreements will terminate, and On2 will release Beijing E-World from all liability arising from the matters underlying the arbitration. As of the date of filing of this report, Beijing E-World has not paid the amount agreed for settlement. Accordingly, our arbitration claim is still pending. We are unaware of any material developments with respect to Beijing E-World’s actions in arbitration to defend itself in response to our claims or with respect to settlement.
