Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosure required for complete financial statements are not included herein. It is recommended that these financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes of Psychemedics Corporation (“the Company,” “our Company,” “our” or “we”) as reported in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012, filed on March 8, 2013.

The results of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 may not be indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2013, or any other period.

2.    Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of 90 days or less to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents consist of cash savings and a bank money market account.

3.    Stock-Based Compensation

2006 Equity Incentive Plan

The Company’s 2006 Incentive Plan provides for the grant or issuance to officers, directors, employees and consultants of options with terms of up to ten years, restricted stock, stock unit awards (SUA’s), issuances of stock bonuses or other stock-based awards, covering up to 500,000 shares of common stock. As of September 30, 2013, 181,581 shares remained available for future grant under the 2006 Incentive Plan.

The Company granted SUAs covering 56,500 shares of common stock on May 23, 2013. The SUAs vest over a period of two years for non-employee board members and four years for employees and are convertible into an equivalent number of shares of the Company’s common stock provided that the director or employee receiving the award remains continuously employed throughout the vesting period. The Company records compensation expense related to the SUAs on a straight-line basis over the vesting term of the SUAs. Employees are issued shares upon vesting, net of tax withholdings, unless the employee chooses to receive all shares and pay for the associated employment taxes. No other types of equity-based awards have been granted or issued under the 2006 Incentive Plan.

3.    Stock-Based Compensation (continued)

All Stock-Based Compensation Plans

As of September 30, 2013, a total of 497,506 shares of common stock were reserved for issuance under the various stock option and stock-based plans. As of September 30, 2013, the unamortized fair value of awards relating to outstanding SUAs and options was $1.2 million, which is expected to be amortized over a weighted average period of 2.9 years.

4.    Basic and Diluted Net Income Per Share

Basic net income per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common and dilutive common equivalent shares outstanding during the period. The number of dilutive common equivalent shares outstanding during the period has been determined in accordance with the treasury-stock method. Common equivalent shares consist of common stock issuable upon the exercise of outstanding options and common stock issuable upon the vesting of outstanding, unvested SUAs.

Basic and diluted weighted average common shares outstanding are as follows:

	Three Months Ended				Nine months Ended
	September 30,		September 30,		September 30,		September 30,
	2013		2012		2013		2012

Dilutive common equivalent shares		19		18		13		10
Weighted average common shares outstanding, dilutive		5,331		5,290		5,314		5,266

For the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, options to purchase 153 thousand and 231 thousand common shares, respectively, were outstanding but not included in the diluted weighted average common share calculation as the effect would have been antidilutive. The amounts for the nine month period ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 were 167 thousand and 264 thousand common shares, respectively.

5.   Fair Value Measurements

ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820”), provides guidance for using fair value to measure assets and liabilities. It also responds to investors’ requests for expanded information about the extent to which companies’ measure assets and liabilities at fair value, the information used to measure fair value, and the effect of fair value measurements on earnings. ASC 820 applies whenever other standards require (or permit) assets or liabilities to be measured at fair value, and does not expand the use of fair value in any new circumstances.

5. Fair Value Measurements (continued)

It establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy prioritizes the inputs in three broad levels as follows:

⋅ Level 1 inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical assets and liabilities.

⋅ Level 2 inputs are quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active or for which all significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly.

⋅ Level 3 inputs are prices or valuations that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable.

A financial asset’s or liability’s classification within the hierarchy is determined based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

The financial assets of the Company measured at fair value on a recurring basis are cash and cash equivalents. The Company’s cash and cash equivalents are classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy because they are valued using quoted market prices that are accessible at the measurement date for identical assets and liabilities.

6.  Subsequent Events

On October 28, 2013, the Company declared a quarterly dividend of $0.15 per share for a total of $797 thousand, which will be paid on November 22, 2013 to shareholders of record on November 11, 2013.

7.  Commitments and Contingencies

The Company is subject to legal proceedings and claims, which arise in the ordinary course of its business. The Company believes that based upon information available to the Company at this time, the expected outcome of these matters would not have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations or financial condition.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Revenues were $7.1 million for three months ended September 30, 2013 compared to revenues of $6.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2012, representing an increase of 9%. The increase in revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2013 was a result of an increase in testing volume of 11%. The average revenue per sample decreased 2% from the comparative period in 2012, which was primarily driven by the mix of customers. Revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 were $20.4 million, representing an increase of 4% in revenues from the comparable period of 2012 of $19.6 million. The increase was primarily due to an increase in volume, as test samples increased 7% from the first nine months of 2012. The average revenue per sample decreased 3% from the comparative period in 2012, which was primarily driven by the mix of customers.

Gross profit was $4.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2013, compared to $3.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2012, representing an increase of 12%. Direct costs increased by $137 thousand or 5% for the three months ended September 30, 2013 compared to the same period in 2012, mainly due to a greater volume of samples. The gross profit margin was 59% for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 58% for the comparable period of 2012. Gross profit for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 increased $256 thousand to $11.7 million compared to $11.5 million for the comparable period in 2012. Direct costs increased by $565 thousand or 7% for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 when compared to the same period in 2012, mostly due to a greater volume in samples. The gross profit margin for the nine month period ended September 30, 2013 was 58% compared to 59% for the comparable period in 2012.

General and administrative (“G&A”) expenses were $1.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2013, compared to $922 thousand for the three months ended September 30, 2012. As a percentage of revenue, G&A expenses were 15% and 14% for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012. General and administrative expenses were $3.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, compared to $2.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. As a percentage of revenue, G&A expenses were 15% for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012. The G&A expense for the three and nine months ended 2012 was lower than 2013 due to the capitalization of software costs related to our custom designed enzyme immunoassay (EIA) project in 2012.

Marketing and selling expenses were $1.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2013, compared to $1.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2012. Total marketing and selling expenses represented 16% of revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2013, compared to 17% for the comparable period of 2012. The increase in marketing and selling expenses were driven by higher commissions from higher sales. Marketing and selling expenses were $3.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012. Total marketing and selling expenses represented 17% of revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012.

Research and development (“R&D”) expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2013 were $203 thousand compared to $297 thousand for the comparable period of 2012. As a percentage of revenue, R&D expenses were 3% and 5% for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012. Research and development expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 were $558 thousand compared to $679 thousand in the prior year. R&D expenses represented 3% of revenue for the nine months ended 2013 and 2012. The R&D expense for the three and nine months ended 2012 was higher than 2013 due to additional costs related to our custom designed enzyme immunoassay (EIA) project in 2012.

Provision for income taxes During the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, the Company recorded tax provisions of $688 thousand and $553 thousand, respectively. These provisions represented effective tax rates of 40% for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 39% for the comparable period of 2012. A tax provision of $1.8 million was made for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and September 30, 2012. These provisions represented effective tax rates of 38% for the nine month periods ended September 30, 2013 and 39% for the comparative period last year. The 38% represents the current estimate of the year-end tax rate. The Company continues to monitor the effective tax rate, but does not expect a significant change for the remaining three months of 2013.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

At September 30, 2013, the Company had approximately $2.8 million of cash and cash equivalents. The Company's operating activities provided net cash of $3.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013. Investing activities used $1.6 million of cash while financing activities used $2.5 million of cash during the first nine months of 2013.

Cash provided by operating activities of $3.9 million reflected net income of $2.9 million adjusted for depreciation and amortization of $643 thousand and stock-based compensation of $386 thousand. This was affected by the following changes in assets and liabilities: an increase in accounts receivable of $673 thousand, a decrease in prepaid expenses, income tax receivable and other current assets of $622 thousand, a decrease in accounts payable of $93 thousand, an increase in accrued expenses of $185 thousand and an increase for deferred income tax assets of $155 thousand. At December 31, 2012, the Company had an income tax receivable of $854 thousand. This receivable was used to reduce the current year tax payments which positively impacted the cash flow.

Cash used in investing activities included equipment and leasehold improvements of $835 thousand, cost of internally developed software of $540 thousand, and other assets of $227 thousand which were purchased during the first nine months of 2013. The other assets primarily consists of patent application costs. We anticipate spending $0.4 million to $0.6 million in additional capital purchases for the remainder of 2013.

Cash used in financing activities of $2.5 million included $2.4 million in cash dividends to shareholders. On October 28, 2013, the Company declared a quarterly dividend of $0.15 per share for a total of $797 thousand, which will be paid on October 22, 2013 to shareholders of record on October 11, 2013.

Contractual obligations as of September 30, 2013 were as follows:

	Less Than One Year		1-3 Years		4-5 years		After 5 Years		Total
	(in thousands)
Operating leases	$	616	$	737	$	-	$	-	$	1,353

At September 30, 2013, the Company's principal sources of liquidity included an aggregate of approximately $2.8 million of cash and cash equivalents. Management currently believes that such funds, together with cash generated from operations, should be adequate to fund anticipated working capital requirements and capital expenditures for the next 12 months. Depending upon the Company's results of operations and capital needs, the Company may use various financing sources to raise additional funds, although the Company does not have any such plans at this time. At September 30, 2013, the Company had no long-term debt.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Management believes the most critical accounting policies are as follows:

Revenue Recognition

The Company is in the business of performing drug testing services and reporting the results thereof. The Company’s drug testing services include training for collection of samples and storage of positive samples for its customers for an agreed-upon fee per unit tested of samples. The revenues are recognized when the predominant deliverable, drug testing, is provided and reported to the customer.

The Company recognizes revenue under ASC 605, Revenue Recognition. In accordance with ASC 605, the Company considers testing, training and storage elements as one unit of accounting for revenue recognition purposes, as the training and storage costs are de minimis and do not have stand-alone value to the customer. The Company recognizes revenue as the service is performed and reported to the customer, since the predominant deliverable in each arrangement is the testing of the units.

The Company also provides expert testimony, when and if necessary, to support the results of the tests, which is generally billed separately and recognized as the services are provided.

Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates, including bad debts, stock compensation expense, and income taxes, and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

The allowance for doubtful accounts is based on management's assessment of the collectability of its customer accounts. Management reviews its accounts receivable aging for doubtful accounts and specifically identifies accounts that may not be collectible. The Company routinely assesses the financial strength of its customers and, as a consequence, believes that its accounts receivable credit risk exposure is limited. The Company maintains an allowance for potential credit losses but historically has not experienced any significant losses related to individual customers or groups of customers in any particular industry or geographic area. Bad debt expense has been within management’s expectations.

13

Capitalized Development Costs

The Company capitalizes costs related to significant software projects developed or obtained for internal use. Costs incurred during the preliminary project work stage or conceptual stage, such as determining the performance requirements, system requirements and data conversion, are expensed as incurred. Costs incurred in the application development phase, such as coding, testing for new software and upgrades that result in additional functionality, are capitalized and are amortized using the straight-line method over the useful life of the software for 5 years. Costs incurred during the post-implementation/operation stage, including training costs and maintenance costs, are expensed as incurred. The Company capitalized internally developed software costs of $540 thousand and $656 thousand for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Determining whether particular costs incurred are more properly attributable to the preliminary or conceptual stage, and thus expensed, or to the application development phase, and thus capitalized and amortized, depends on subjective judgments about the nature of the development work, and our judgments in this regard may differ from those made by other companies. General and administrative costs related to developing or obtaining such software is expensed as incurred.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes using the liability method, which requires the Company to recognize a current tax liability or asset for current taxes payable or refundable and a deferred tax liability or asset for the estimated future tax effects of temporary differences between the financial statement and tax reporting bases of assets and liabilities to the extent that they are realizable. Deferred tax expense (benefit) results from the net change in deferred tax assets and liabilities during the year. A deferred tax valuation allowance is required if it is more likely than not that all or a portion of the recorded deferred tax assets will not be realized.

The Company follows the guidance of ASC 740, Income Taxes (“ASC 740”). ASC 740 contains a two-step approach to recognizing and measuring uncertain tax positions (tax contingencies). The first step is to evaluate the tax position for recognition by determining if the weight of available evidence indicates it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained on an audit, including resolution of related appeals or litigation processes, if any. The second step is to measure the tax benefit as the largest amount which is more than 50% likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. We consider many factors when evaluating and estimating our tax positions and tax benefits, which may require periodic adjustments and which may not accurately forecast actual outcomes.

The Company operates within multiple taxing jurisdictions and could be subject to audit in these jurisdictions. These audits may involve complex issues, which may require an extended period of time to resolve. The Company has provided for its estimated taxes payable in the accompanying financial statements. Interest and penalties related to income tax matters are recognized as a general and administrative expense. The Company did not have any unrecognized tax benefits and did not have any interest or penalties accrued as of September 30, 2013 or December 31, 2012.

14

The above listing is not intended to be a comprehensive list of all of the Company’s accounting policies. In many cases, the accounting treatment of a particular transaction is specifically dictated by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, with no need for management’s judgment in their application. There are also areas in which management’s judgment in selecting any available alternative would not produce a materially different result.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Interest Rate Sensitivity. The Company maintains cash and cash equivalents which consist of cash, money market funds and certificates of deposit with financial institutions. Due to the conservative nature and relatively short duration of our cash and cash equivalents interest rate risk is mitigated.

Based on our ability to access our cash and cash equivalents, our expected operating cash flows and our other sources of cash; we do not anticipate that any lack of liquidity will materially affect our ability to operate our business.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

As of the date of this report, our Chief Executive Officer and our Vice President - Finance performed an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 13a-15. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Vice President - Finance concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective for ensuring that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and disclosed within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that its disclosure controls and procedures were also effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Company’s principal executive and principal financial officers, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. There were no significant changes in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting or in other factors that could significantly affect these internal controls over financial reporting subsequent to the date of the most recent evaluation.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]

Fair Value Disclosures [Text Block]

5.    Fair Value Measurements

ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820”), provides guidance for using fair value to measure assets and liabilities. It also responds to investors’ requests for expanded information about the extent to which companies’ measure assets and liabilities at fair value, the information used to measure fair value, and the effect of fair value measurements on earnings. ASC 820 applies whenever other standards require (or permit) assets or liabilities to be measured at fair value, and does not expand the use of fair value in any new circumstances.

It establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy prioritizes the inputs in three broad levels as follows:

⋅ Level 1 inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical assets and liabilities.

⋅ Level 2 inputs are quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active or for which all significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly.

⋅ Level 3 inputs are prices or valuations that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable.

A financial asset’s or liability’s classification within the hierarchy is determined based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

The financial assets of the Company measured at fair value on a recurring basis are cash and cash equivalents. The Company’s cash and cash equivalents are classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy because they are valued using quoted market prices that are accessible at the measurement date for identical assets and liabilities.

2006 Equity Incentive Plan

The Company’s 2006 Incentive Plan provides for the grant or issuance to officers, directors, employees and consultants of options with terms of up to ten years, restricted stock, stock unit awards (SUA’s), issuances of stock bonuses or other stock-based awards, covering up to 500,000 shares of common stock. As of September 30, 2013, 181,581 shares remained available for future grant under the 2006 Incentive Plan.

The Company granted SUAs covering 56,500 shares of common stock on May 23, 2013. The SUAs vest over a period of two years for non-employee board members and four years for employees and are convertible into an equivalent number of shares of the Company’s common stock provided that the director or employee receiving the award remains continuously employed throughout the vesting period. The Company records compensation expense related to the SUAs on a straight-line basis over the vesting term of the SUAs. Employees are issued shares upon vesting, net of tax withholdings, unless the employee chooses to receive all shares and pay for the associated employment taxes. No other types of equity-based awards have been granted or issued under the 2006 Incentive Plan.

A summary of activity for SUAs under the Company’s 2006 Incentive Plan for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 is as follows:

			Aggregate

(1)       The aggregate intrinsic value on this table was calculated based on the closing market value of the Company’s stock on September 30, 2013 ($13.25).

Expired Plans

As of September 30, 2013, the Company also had outstanding an aggregate of 176,950 options to acquire common stock under plans that had previously expired. A summary of stock option activity for the Company’s expired stock option plans for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 is as follows:

			Weighted		Weighted

(2)     The aggregate intrinsic value on this table was calculated based on the amount, if any, by which the closing market value of the Company’s stock on the September 30, 2013 ($13.25) exceeded the exercise price of the underlying options, multiplied by the number of shares subject to each option.

All Stock-Based Compensation Plans

As of September 30, 2013, a total of 497,506 shares of common stock were reserved for issuance under the various stock option and stock-based plans. As of September 30, 2013, the unamortized fair value of awards relating to outstanding SUAs and options was $1.2 million, which is expected to be amortized over a weighted average period of 2.9 years.

Earnings Per Share [Text Block]

4.     Basic and Diluted Net Income Per Share

Basic net income per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common and dilutive common equivalent shares outstanding during the period. The number of dilutive common equivalent shares outstanding during the period has been determined in accordance with the treasury-stock method. Common equivalent shares consist of common stock issuable upon the exercise of outstanding options and common stock issuable upon the vesting of outstanding, unvested SUAs.

Basic and diluted weighted average common shares outstanding are as follows:
