Note 4.  Net Income (Loss) Per  Share

Basic net income (loss) per share includes no dilution and is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. Diluted net income per share reflects, in the periods in which they have a dilutive effect, the dilution which would occur upon the exercise of stock options. A reconciliation of the shares used in calculating basic and diluted net income per share is as follows:

Note 5.  Accumulated  Other Comprehensive Loss

Accumulated other comprehensive loss consists of two components: translation gains  and losses  and FAS 133 mark to market gains and losses  on the Company’s open foreign exchange contracts. As of June 30, 2009,  appearing in the equity section under  “ Accumulated other  comprehensive loss” was a  loss of  $3,381,465, which consisted of a deferred translation loss of $3,344,876 and a deferred loss of $36,589 due to the mark to market differences between the value of  the Company’s open forward exchange  contracts at the contract rates versus the same contracts valued at the period ending forward rate.

The table below  details the gains and losses  that make up the accumulated other  comprehensive  loss  on the Company’s balance sheet as of  June 30, 2009:

Note 6. Revenue recognition

The Company  sells its products through a sales channel which consist of retailers, PC manufacturers and distributors. The majority of the Company’s customers are granted lines of credit. The  product is shipped on account with the majority of customers primarily given 30 to 60 day payment terms. Those customers deemed as large credit risks either pay in advance or issue the Company a letter of credit.

The Company requires the customer to submit a purchase order to the Company.   The price of the product and payment terms are fixed per the terms of the purchase order.  Upon shipment of the order to the customer, the title to the goods is passed to the customer. The customer is legally obligated to pay for the order within the payment terms stated on the customer’s purchase order.  The obligation to insure the boards and the cost of any pilferage while in the customer’s possession is the responsibility of the customer.  The  Company sells analog, hybrid video recorders or digital  computer boards that are stocked on the shelves of  retailers and are subject to the normal consumer traffic that  retail stores attract. Aside from normal store promotions such as advertisements in the store’s circular, the Company has no further obligation to assist in the resale of the products.

HAUPPAUGE DIGITAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)

The Company offers some of its customers a right of return. The Company’s accounting complies with SFAS 48 Revenue Recognition when right of return exists, as typically at the end of every quarter the Company, based on historical data, evaluates its sales reserve level  based on the  previous six months sales.  Due to seasonal nature of the business coupled with the changing economic environment, management exercises some judgment with regard to the historical data  to arrive at the reserve.

The Company offers mail-in rebates on certain products at certain times as determined by the Company. The rebates are recorded as a reduction to sales. The Company also participates in limited cooperative advertising   programs with retailers and distributors and accounts for these in accordance with EITF 01-09, “Accounting for Consideration Given by a Vendor to a Customer (Including a Reseller of the Vendor’s Products)”.
 
Note 7.  Product segment and geographic information

The Company operates in one business segment, which is the development, marketing and manufacturing of analog and digital TV tuner products for the personal computer market. The products are similar in function and share commonality of component parts and manufacturing processes.  The Company’s products are either sold, or can be sold, by the same retailers and distributors in the Company’s marketing channel. The Company also sells product directly to PC manufacturers. The Company evaluates its product lines under the functional categories of analog TV tuners, digital TV tuners and other non-TV tuner products.

The Company’s products fall under three product categories:

 
·
Analog TV tuner boards
 
·
Digital  TV tuner, and combination analog and digital TV tuner, boards
 
·
Other non-TV tuner products

The Company’s Analog TV tuner products are TV tuner modules which can be added to a PC and enable a PC user, among other things, to watch and record analog cable TV in a resizable window on a PC.

The Company’s digital TV and combination analog and digital tuner products are TV tuner modules which enable  a PC user, among other things, to watch and record analog cable TV and digital TV in a resizable window on a PC.

The Company’s  other non-TV tuner products enable a PC user, among other things,  to video conference, watch and listen to PC based videos, music and pictures on a TV set through a home network, and record TV shows on a PC for playback on  portable video players.

Note 9. Fair Value Measurements

The Company adopted SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“SFAS No. 157”) on October 1, 2008. SFAS No. 157 defines fair value, establishes a methodology for measuring fair value, and expands the required disclosure for fair value measurements. On February 12, 2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued FASB Staff Position No. SFAS 157-2, “Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157,” which amends SFAS No. 157 by delaying its effective date by one year for non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities, except for items that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis.  The adoption of SFAS No. 157 for the Company’s financial assets and financial liabilities did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.  At June 30, 2009  the Company had forward contracts whose fair value at quarter end was determined via inputs that included quoted prices for similar foreign exchange contracts in active markets and were thus considered to be Level 2 inputs under the SFAS 157 hierarchy (see Note 5).  Effective October 1, 2009, SFAS No. 157 will also apply to all other fair value measurements for the Company.  The Company is evaluating the effect the implementation of SFAS No. 157 will have on its non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities on its consolidated financial statements.
 
The carrying amount of cash, accounts receivables and accounts payables and other short-term financial instruments approximate their fair value due to their short-term nature.  The Company believes that borrowings outstanding under its note payable approximate fair value due to the short-term duration of the loan. 

Note 10. Acquisition of PCTV assets from Avid Technology, Inc.

Effective December 24, 2008, pursuant to an Asset Purchase Agreement, dated as of October 25, 2008, as amended by that certain Amendment No. 1 to the Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Amendment”) (together with the Amendment, the “Asset Purchase Agreement”), PCTV Systems, Sarl, a Luxembourg company (“Buyer”) and  the Company’s  wholly-owned subsidiary,  acquired certain assets and properties (the “Acquired Assets”) of Avid Technology, Inc. (“Avid”), a Delaware corporation, Pinnacle Systems, Inc., a California corporation (“Pinnacle”), Avid Technology GmbH, a limited liability company organized under the laws of Germany, Avid Development GmbH, a limited liability company organized under the laws of Germany, and Avid Technology International BV (collectively, the “Sellers”).  The Acquired Assets were used by the Sellers in the business of, among other things, the development, manufacture and sale of personal devices containing a television tuner for receiving over-the-air, satellite and/or cable television signals that are used in conjunction with personal computers for personal television viewing.   The potential  increase in the Company’s customer base,  the potential  absorption of the PCTV operations into the existing Hauppauge infrastructure with minimal incremental costs  plus  the acquisition  of the seller’s technology, reference designs  and product line  were among the attributes that were considered in the  Company’s decision to complete the acquisition.

The purchase price consisted of $2,238,000 payable in cash; $2,500,000 payable pursuant to Promissory Note, dated December 24, 2008, made payable by the Buyer to Avid (the “Note”) and the assumption of certain liabilities.  The principal amount due pursuant to the Note is payable in 12 equal monthly installments of $208,333. The first such payment was due and paid on January 24, 2009.   Interest on the outstanding principal amount of the Note is payable at a rate equal to (i) from December 24, 2008 until the Maturity Date (as defined in the Note), five percent (5%), (ii) from and after the Maturity Date, or during the continuance of an Event of Default (as defined in the Note), at seven percent (7%).  Pursuant to the terms of the Note, the Buyer and its affiliates are prohibited from (i) declaring or paying any cash dividend, or making a distribution on, repurchasing, or redeeming, any class of stock or other equity or ownership interest in the Buyer or its affiliates, (ii) selling, leasing, transferring or otherwise disposing of any assets or property of the Buyer or any of its affiliates, or attempting to or contracting to do so, other than (a) the sale of inventory in the ordinary course of business and consistent with past practice, (b) the granting of non-exclusive licenses of intellectual property in the ordinary course of business and consistent with past practice and (c) the sale, lease, transfer or disposition of any assets or property (other than the Acquired Assets) with a value not to exceed $500,000 in the aggregate, or (iii) dissolving or liquidating, or merging or consolidating with any other entity, or acquiring all or substantially all of the stock or assets of any other entity. As of  June 30, 2009,  the  note payable to Avid Technologies Inc. was $1,250,045. The interest paid on the note was $49,478 for nine months ended June 30, 2009.

The following allocation of the purchase price and the estimated transaction costs are preliminary and based on information available to the Company’s management at the time the  consolidated financial statements were prepared.  Accordingly, the allocation is subject to change and the impact of such changes could be material:

Purchase Price Paid
     
Cash paid to seller at closing
  $ 2,238,000  
Notes payable assumed
    2,500,000  
Warranty liability assumed
    262,000  
Direct acquisition costs
    489,060  
Total purchase price
  $ 5,489,060  
         
Allocation of Purchase Price
       
Identifiable intangible assets
  $ 5,261,929  
Fixed assets
    227,131  
Total allocation of purchase price
  $ 5,489,060  

The values allocated to identifiable intangible assets in the acquisition are expected to be deductible for income tax purposes.

Because  the acquisition was completed on December 24, 2008,  results from the operations of the PCTV business effectively started on January 1, 2009.   On the Company’s  June 30, 2009  balance sheet the acquisition was recorded by allocating the purchase price to the assets acquired, including intangible assets such as customer lists, technology and reference designs,  based on a purchase  price allocation  provided by an independent business valuation company.

The following unaudited pro forma results assume the acquisition occurred on October 1, 2007.  The pro forma results do not purport to represent what the Company’s results of operations actually would have been if the transactions set forth above had occurred on the date indicated or what the Company’s results of operations will be in future periods.  The financial results for the periods prior to the acquisition were based on internal financial statements as provided by the Sellers.

Net sales to customers in The Americas were 53%  and 42% of net sales for the three months ended June  30, 2009 and 2008, respectively.  Net sales to customers in Europe were 44% and 54% of net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively.   Net sales to customers in Asia were 3% and 4% of net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2009 and  2008, respectively.  We experienced a decrease in unit sales of about 36% while the change in sales mix increased the average sales price by about 4%.

Factors driving the  decline in  sales for the third quarter of fiscal 2009 were the effects of a weakened economy which curtailed consumer spending,  the  liquidation of  Circuit City,  the weakening of the Euro compared to the U.S. dollar and  the shift in emphasis by   PC manufacturers  to lower cost PCs which do not include TV tuners.  Somewhat offsetting the declines caused by the factors listed above was the addition of sales from the PCTV product line that we acquired from Avid Technology, Inc.

Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased $ 43,059 from the prior year’s fiscal third quarter.  Sales and marketing expense for HCW decreased $138,661, primarily driven by the decrease in the Euro exchange rate compared to the U.S. dollar  which resulted in an expense reduction of  $257,410, lower compensation expense of $21,221 due personnel reductions and  lower travel and industry show expenses $42,459  due  to the budgeted  expense reductions. Offsetting these decreases was an increase of $ 115,335 in sales and marketing expense for PCTV due to personnel expenses related to PCTV employees hired in connection with the acquisition of the PCTV business from Avid Technology, Inc. and increased sales office expenses for HCW  of $34,238 related to higher personnel costs.

The  decrease  in general and administrative expense for HCW  of  $223,980 was primarily due lower professional fees, primarily for  legal and consulting  fees  of  $121,644,  a decrease in compensation expense of $31,231 due to staff reductions,  a reduction of $36,689 in insurance expense due to lower negotiated premiums,  lower communications expenses  of  $6,643 and lower insurance expense of $36,689 due lower  premiums. These decreases were somewhat offset by $26,144 in general and administration expenses related to the PCTV operation.  There also was $188,709 in amortization of intangible assets charged to operations for the third quarter of fiscal 2009  related to the acquisition of the PCTV business.

Research and  development expenses

Research and development expenses increased  $156,221.  Higher  compensation expense of $426,441 for  personnel expenses related to PCTV employees hired in connection with  the acquisition of the PCTV business from Avid Technology, Inc., offset by $ 183,183 in lower compensation expense due to staff reductions and $107,240 less in project development expenses due to a lower volume of programs in progress for fiscal 2009.

We recorded a net loss of  $1,887,382, for the three  months ended June 30, 2009, which resulted in basic and diluted net loss per share of $0.19 on weighted average basic and diluted shares of  10,048,771  compared to a net loss of $1,117,563 for the three months ended June 30, 2008, which resulted in  basic and diluted net loss per share of $0.11  on weighted average  basic and diluted shares of  10,018,771.

Options to purchase 1,522,394  and 1,767,744 shares of common stock,  at  prices for both periods ranging from  $1.05 to $8.75,  were outstanding for the three months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively, but were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because they were anti-dilutive.

Net sales to customers in The  Americas were 50%  and 48% of net sales for the nine months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively.  Net sales to customers in Europe were 47% and 49%  of net sales for the nine months ended  June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively.   Net sales to customers in Asia were 3% of net sales for the nine months ended June 30, 2009  and  2008, respectively.  We experienced a decrease in unit sales of about 43% while the change in sales mix increased the average sales price by about 3%.

Factors driving the  decline in  sales for the nine months ended June 30,  2009 were the effects of a weakened economy which curtailed consumer spending,  the  liquidation of  Circuit City,  the weakening of the Euro and  the shift in emphasis  by the  PC manufacturers  to lower cost PCs which do not include TV tuners.  Somewhat offsetting the declines caused by the factors listed above was the addition of sales from the PCTV product line that we acquired from Avid Technology, Inc.

Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased $845,349 compared to the same period in the prior fiscal year.  Sales and marketing expense for HCW  decreased $945,892, primarily driven by  the decrease in the  Euro exchange rate compared to the U.S. dollar which resulted in an expense reduction of $676,489, lower compensation expense of  $61,273 due personnel reductions, lower travel and industry show expenses $85,757  due  to the budgeted  expense reductions ,  lower commissions,  marketing development and  advertising  expense of  $293,738 due to lower sales.  Offsetting these decreases were  higher  HCW  European sales office expense of $112,433  due to higher personnel costs and $203,380 in sales and marketing expenes for PCTV due to  personnel expenses related to PCTV employees hired in connection with the acquisition of the PCTV business from Avid Technology, Inc.

The  decrease  in general and administrative expense for HCW  of  $560,248 was primarily due lower professional fees, primarily for  legal and consulting  fees of  $260,705, a decrease in bad debt expense of  $120,000 related to the February 2008 liquidation of CompUSA, a decrease in compensation expense of $81,633 due to staff reductions, a reduction of $77,617 in insurance expense due to lower  premiums and lower communication expenses of  $16,796. These decreases were offset $142,007 in PCTV general and administrative expenses, mainly due to $140,000 paid to Avid Technology, Inc. pursuant to a transitional services agreement.  There also was $377,418 in amortization of intangible assets charged to operations  related to the acquisition of the PCTV business.

Research and  development expenses

Research and development expenses increased $377,015. The primary drivers of the increase were higher compensation expense of $846,191 for personnel expenses related to PCTV employees hired in connection with the acquisition of the PCTV business from Avid Technology, Inc.,   offset by $239,955 in lower compensation expense due to staff reductions,  $241,255 less in project development expenses due to a lower volume of programs in progress during  fiscal 2009 and $39,559 less in travel expense due budget restrictions.
 
Tax provision

Our  tax provision for the nine months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008 is as follows:

   
Nine months ended June 30,

State taxes
    30,000       17,000  
Tax provision
  $ 115,550     $ 160,437  

We recorded a net loss of  $5,591,765, for the nine months ended June 30, 2009, which resulted in basic and diluted net loss per share of $0.56  on weighted average basic and diluted shares of  10,042,546  compared to a net loss of $179,653 for the nine months ended June 30, 2008, which resulted in  basic and diluted net loss per share of $0.02  on weighted average  basic and diluted shares of 9,951,552. .

Options to purchase 1,522,394  and 1,767,744 shares of common stock  at  prices for both periods ranging from  $1.05 to $8.75, respectively,  were outstanding for the nine months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively, but were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because they were anti-dilutive.

Seasonality

As our sales are primarily to the consumer market, we have experienced certain seasonal revenue trends. Our peak sales quarter due to holiday season sales of computer equipment is our first fiscal quarter (October to December), followed by our second fiscal quarter (January  to March). In addition, our international sales, mostly in the European  market, were 52%, 44% and 54% of sales for the years ended September 30, 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively.  Part of our third  and fourth quarters  (April through June and July to September) can be potentially impacted by the reduction of activity experienced in Europe during the summer holiday period.

To offset the above cycles, we target a wide range of customer types in order to moderate the seasonal nature  of our  retail sales.
 
Liquidity and capital resources

Our cash, working capital and stockholders’ equity position as of  June 30, 2009 and September 30, 2008 is set forth below:

   
June 30, 2009
   
September 30, 2008
 
             
Cash
  $ 9,033,115     $ 14,191,721  
Working Capital
    7,105,609       17,229,410  
Stockholders’ Equity
    13,804,245       18,988,536  


We had cash and cash equivalents as of June 30, 2009 of $9,033,115, a decrease of $5,158,606 from September 30, 2008.

The decrease  in cash was due to :

Sources of cash:
     
Decrease in inventory
  $ 2,301,900  
Increase  in  accounts payable and accrued expenses
    2,119,894  
Proceeds from employee stock purchases
    24,133  
Less cash used for:
       
Net loss adjusted for non cash items
    (4,611,617 )
PCTV acquisition-net of note payable
    (2,490,500 )
Payment on note payable
    (1,249,998 )
Increase  in  accounts receivables
    (1,186,810 )
Capital equipment purchases
    (28,319 )
Increase  in prepaid expenses and other current assets
    (18,694 )
Effect of exchange rates on cash
    (18,595 )
Net cash decrease
  $ (5,158,606 )

Net cash of $1,395,327 used in operating activities was due to the net loss adjusted for non cash items of $4,611,617,  an increase  in accounts receivable  of  $1,186,810  plus an increase in prepaid expenses and other current assets of  $18,694,  offset  by a decrease in  inventory of  $2,301,900 and an increase in accounts payable  and  accrued expenses of  $2,119,894.  The increase in accounts receivable was due to sales shipped during June 2009  making up 40% of the sales for the quarter.  The decrease in inventory was due to lower sales which resulted in a lower  investment in inventory

 
24

 

Cash of $2,518,819  was used  in investing  activities.  Of this amount, $2,490,500 was used for the acquisition of the PCTV business and $28,319 was used to purchase fixed assets. The $2,490,500  used for the PCTV acquisition consisted of   $2,238,000  paid  against the $5,000,000 purchase price and $252,300  disbursed in payment of direct expenses of the acquisition. We also entered into  a Note Payable with Avid Technology, Inc. of $2,500,000, of which $1,249,998 in payments have been made against the note .  Cash of $24,133 was provided from purchases of stock pursuant to our employee stock purchase plan.

Our cash requirements for the next twelve months will include, among other things,  the cash required to pay off the  note  to Avid Technology, Inc related to the  purchase the  PCTV product line and the cash needed to fund the acquisition’s working capital needs.  With the proper execution of our business and operational integration plan, we believe that our cash and cash equivalents as of  March  31, 2009 and our internally generated cash flow  will provide us with sufficient liquidity to meet our capital needs for the next twelve months.   Failure to meet the operating and integration plan could require the need for additional sources of capital.   In light of the current economic and credit conditions there can be no assurances that we will be able to find external sources of financing to fund our additional working capital needs.

On March 31, 2009 our line of credit with the JP Morgan Chase Bank expired and was not renewed.

Inflation

While inflation has not had a material effect on our operations in the past, there can be no assurance that we will be able to continue to offset the effects of inflation on the costs of our products or services through price increases to our customers without experiencing a reduction in the demand for our products; or that inflation will not have an overall effect on the computer equipment market that would have a material affect on us.
 
Item  3.  Quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risks

For each of the three fiscal years ended September 30, 2008, at least 40% of our  sales were generated by our European subsidiary and were invoiced  and collected  in local currency, which was primarily the Euro. On the supply side, since we predominantly deal with North American and Asian suppliers and contract manufacturers, approximately 90% of our inventory required to support  our European sales are purchased and paid in U.S. Dollars.

 
25

 

The combination of sales billed in Euros supported by inventory purchased in U.S. Dollars results in an absence of a natural local currency hedge. Consequently, our financial results are subject to market risks resulting from the fluctuations in the Euro to U.S. Dollar exchange rates.

We attempt to reduce these risks by entering into foreign exchange forward contracts with financial institutions. The purpose of these forward contracts is to hedge the foreign currency market exposures underlying the U.S. Dollar denominated inventory purchases required to support our European sales.
 
Item 4T. Controls and procedures

 Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e)) that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

As required by Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(b), as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures.  Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2009.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting, identified in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Rule 13a-15 of the Exchange Act, that occurred during our most recently completed fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
