Certain information and footnote disclosures, that are usually included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) have been either condensed or omitted in accordance with SEC rules and regulations. The accompanying consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, necessary for a fair presentation of our financial position as of June 30, 2011 and 2010, the results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, and the statements of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 are not necessarily indicative of the results for a full-year period.  These interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010 filed with the SEC.

We expect to sell the above inventory, net of reserves, at or above the stated cost and believe that no loss will be incurred on its sale.

Current finished goods include consigned inventory in the amounts of approximately $1,393 and $1,742 as of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. Consigned inventory represents inventory at distributors and other customers where revenue recognition criteria have not been achieved.

The following table summarizes the losses incurred on valuation of inventory at lower of cost or market value and write-off of obsolete inventory during the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 respectively.

 (Unaudited – Dollars in thousands)

As of June 30, 2011 the total remaining unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested stock options, net of forfeitures, was approximately $196.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, we granted 5,000 stock options. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 we granted 90,000 and 141,750 stock options, respectively.  We use judgment in determining the fair value of the share-based payments on the date of grant using an option-pricing model with assumptions regarding a number of highly complex and subjective variables.  These variables include the risk-free interest rate of the awards, the expected life of the awards, the expected volatility over the term of the awards, the expected dividends of the awards, and an estimate of the amount of awards that are expected to be forfeited.  We use the Black-Scholes option pricing model to determine the fair value of share-based payments granted under ASC Topic 718.

5.  Shareholders’ Equity

The following table summarizes the change in shareholders’ equity during the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 respectively:

		Three months ended				Six months ended

7. Income Taxes

The total outstanding balance for liabilities related to unrecognized tax benefits at June 30, 2011 was approximately $456 of which $21 was associated with interest and penalties. We account for interest expense and penalties for unrecognized tax benefits as part of our income tax provision.

8. Subsequent Events

The Company evaluated its consolidated financial statements as of and for the quarter ended June 30, 2011 for subsequent events through the date the financial statements were issued.

On August 8, 2011, in the litigation related to the theft of ClearOne’s intellectual property, the Tenth Circuit Court of Appeals affirmed in ClearOne’s favor and against Biamp the federal district court’s award of exemplary damages based upon the finding that Biamp’s misappropriation was willful and malicious. The amount of ClearOne’s judgment against Biamp affirmed by the Tenth Circuit Court is estimated to be $3.7 million, not including additional amounts that may be awarded for attorney fees.  We expect to collect the judgment against Biamp from the approximately $3.7 million cash bond posted by Biamp.  As of the date these financial statements were issued, we have not collected the judgment, and are awaiting any further actions by Biamp.

The Company is not aware of any other subsequent events which would require recognition or disclosure in the financial statements.

Our revenues were $11.9 million and $22.6 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $9.9 million and $18.3 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2010. Revenues increased by 20% and 23% during the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 respectively over the comparable periods of 2010.

Revenue

Revenue for the quarter ended June 30, 2011 (“2011 Q2”) increased by approximately 20% over the quarter ended June 30, 2010 (“2010 Q2”). The increase was caused by an increase in revenue from our professional and premium conferencing products and NetStreams products in North America and Asia due to continued strength in these economies and higher penetration of our products introduced last year. Revenue from tabletop and personal conferencing products did not change significantly and revenue from media carts declined.

Revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2011 (“2011 H1”) increased by approximately 23% over the six months ended June 30, 2010 (“2010 H1”). The increase was caused by an overall increase in revenue from our professional, personal, premium and tabletop conferencing products due to increased demand for our products in all major geographic regions due to the increasing strength in the global economy and higher penetration of our products introduced last year. Revenue from NetStreams products did not change significantly and revenue from media carts declined.

During 2011 Q2 and 2010 Q2, the net change in deferred revenue was net recognition of revenue of $811,000 and net deferral of $197,000 respectively. During 2011 H1 and 2010 H1, the net change in deferred revenue was net recognition of revenue of $553,000 and net deferral of $326,000 respectively. See “Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates” under “Revenue and Associated Allowance for Revenue Adjustments and Doubtful Accounts” below for a detailed discussion of deferred revenue.

Costs of Goods Sold and Gross Profit

Costs of goods sold include expenses associated with finished goods purchased from electronic manufacturing services (EMS) providers, in addition to other operating expenses, which include material and direct labor, our manufacturing and operations organization, property and equipment depreciation, warranty expenses, freight expenses, royalty payments, and the allocation of overhead expenses.

Our gross profit margin (GPM), which is gross profit as a percentage of revenue, was 60% and 57% in 2011 Q2 and 2010 Q2, respectively.  GPM for 2011 H1 was 60% compared to 59% during 2010 H1.

The increase in GPM in 2011 was primarily due to the increase in proportion of high margin products, especially professional products in the mix of products sold.

Operating Expenses

2011 Q2 operating expenses were approximately $5.3 million, an increase of approximately $142,000 from $5.1 million in 2010 Q2 or an increase of 3%.  Operating expenses during 2011 H1 were $10.4 million compared to $9.9 million during 2010 H1, or an increase of 5% over 2010 H1 expenses.

Sales and Marketing (“S&M”) Expenses.   S&M expenses include selling, customer service, and marketing expenses such as employee-related costs, allocations of overhead expenses, trade shows, and other advertising and selling expenses.   

S&M expenses during 2011 Q2 decreased by approximately $77,000, or 4%, when compared to 2010 Q2. The decrease in S&M expenses during 2011 Q2 was primarily due to reduction in employee-related costs and tradeshow costs partially offset by increases in consulting expenses and commissions to independent sales agents.

S&M expenses during 2011 H1 were $4.1 million which was the same as it was in 2010 H1.

Research and Development (“R&D”) Expenses.  R&D expenses include research and development and product line management, including employee-related costs, outside services, expensed materials and depreciation, and an allocation of overhead expenses.  

R&D expenses during 2011 Q2 increased by $72,000 or 4% compared to R&D expenses during 2010 Q2. The increase was primarily due to increases in employee-related costs and project related costs, partially offset by decreases in facilities and information technology charges and reallocation of an officer’s compensation to G&A.

R&D expenses during 2011 H1 decreased by $195,000 or 5% compared to R&D expenses during 2010 H1. The decrease was primarily due to decreases in  facilities and information technology charges and reallocation of an officer’s compensation to G&A, partially offset by increases in project related costs and patenting expenses.

General and Administrative (“G&A”) Expenses.   G&A expenses include employee-related costs, professional service fees, allocations of overhead expenses, litigation costs, and corporate administrative costs, including finance, information technology and human resources. 

G&A expenses during 2011 Q2 increased by $147,000 or 12% compared to expenses during 2010 Q2. G&A expenses increased in 2011 H1 by $687,000 or 32% compared to 2010 H1. The increase was primarily due to increased legal expenses, recruitment expenses and executive bonus and reallocation of officers’ compensation to G&A, partially offset by decreases in audit and accounting fees, facilities and information technology charges and share-based compensation.

 

We continue to incur high legal expenses due to litigation to protect our intellectual property and to defend ourselves from indemnification claims made by former officers.  

 

Other income (expense), net

Other income (expense), net, includes interest income, interest expense, gain (loss) on the disposal of assets, and currency gain (loss).

Other expense, net during 2010 H1 included a loss of approximately $111,000 incurred on disposal of fixed assets and interest expense of approximately $51,000 contributing to the variance between other income, net in 2011 H1 and other expense, net in 2010 H1.

Provision for income taxes

Effective tax rates for 2011 Q2 and 2011 H1 were similar to the effective tax rates for 2010 Q2 and 2010 H1. Income taxes are based on the estimated effective federal, state and foreign income tax rates.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of June 30, 2011, our cash and cash equivalents were approximately $12.4 million, an increase of $1.0 million compared to cash and cash equivalents of approximately $11.4 million as of December 31, 2010.

Net cash provided by operating activities was $496,000 in 2011 H1, a decrease of approximately $3.1 million from 2010 H1. The decrease was primarily due to payment of accrued liabilities and increase in deferred revenue partially offset by increased profits.

Net cash used in investing activities in 2011 H1 was approximately $248,000, which consisted of purchases of equipment. Net cash used in investing activities in 2010 H1 consisted of the purchase of equipment of approximately $542,000 offset by the receipt of $350,000 towards the final working capital adjustment from the sellers of NetStreams.

Net cash provided by financing activities during 2011 H1 was approximately $717,000, consisting of proceeds received from issuance of stock upon exercise of stock options. During 2010 H1, $2 million of debt assumed in the acquisition of NetStreams was fully paid, representing the cash used in financing activities for such period.

In May 2011, we terminated the  Joinder to the Loan and Security Agreement with Square 1 Bank (the “Bank”), and the related Loan and Security Agreement dated November 12, 2008, as amended (the “Loan Agreement”), by and between the Bank, and NetStreams, Inc. and NetStreams, LLC (collectively, “NetStreams”), under which we were named as an additional borrower.  We had previously repaid the $2,000,000 liability of NetStreams under the Loan Agreement in March 2010.  In connection with the termination, we repaid all remaining outstanding obligations, which consisted solely of the Bank’s expenses in connection with the restructuring of the loan facility and amending and restating the Loan Agreement, and termination of all security interests and liens held by the Bank under the Loan Agreement.  In connection with our repayment of the remaining outstanding obligations, all of our indebtedness and obligations to the Bank were discharged in full and the Bank terminated all security interests and other liens held as security under the Loan Agreement.

As of June 30, 2011 our working capital was $26.5 million as compared to $22.8 million as of December 31, 2010.

We believe that future income from operations and effective management of working capital will provide the liquidity needed to meet our short-term and long-term operating requirements and finance our growth plans. We also believe that our strong financial position and solid business model will help us raise additional capital when needed to meet our short and long-term financing needs. In addition to capital expenditures, we may use cash in the near future for selective investments in technological, marketing or product manufacturing capabilities to broaden our product offerings, and acquisitions that may strategically fit our business and are accretive to our business performance. However, no assurance can be given that changes will not occur that would consume available capital resources at a rate more rapidly than anticipated and we may need or want to raise additional capital through debt or equity financing to fund our operations within this period of time.

 

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

 

Our discussion and analysis of our results of operations and financial position are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. We review the accounting policies used in reporting our financial results on a regular basis. The preparation of these financial statements requires us 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. We evaluate our assumptions and estimates on an ongoing basis and may employ outside experts to assist in our evaluations. We believe that the estimates we use are reasonable; however, actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Our significant accounting policies are described in Note 2 to the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010. We believe the policies described below identify our most critical accounting policies, which are the policies that are both important to the representation of our financial condition and results and require our most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain.

Revenue and Associated Allowances for Revenue Adjustments and Doubtful Accounts

 

Included in continuing operations is product revenue, primarily from product sales to distributors, dealers, and end-users. Product revenue is recognized when (i) the products are shipped and any right of return expires, (ii) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (iii) the price is fixed and determinable, and (iv) collection is reasonably assured.

 

We provide a right of return on product sales to major distributors under a product rotation program. Under this seldom used program, a distributor is allowed to return, once a quarter, products purchased during the prior 180 days for a total value generally not exceeding 15% of the distributor’s net purchases during the preceding quarter. The distributor is, however, required to place a new purchase order for an amount not less than the value of products returned under the stock rotation program. When products are returned, the associated revenue, cost of goods sold, inventory and accounts receivable originally recorded are reversed. When the new order is placed, the revenue, associated cost of goods sold, inventory and accounts receivable are recorded and the product revenue is subject to deferral analysis as described below. In a small number of cases, the distributors are also permitted to return the products for other business reasons.

 

Revenue from product sales to distributors is not recognized until the return privilege has expired or it can be determined with reasonable certainty that the return privilege has expired, which approximates when product is sold-through to customers of our distributors (dealers, system integrators, value-added resellers, and end-users) rather than when the product is initially shipped to a distributor. We evaluate, at each quarter-end, the inventory in the channel through information provided by our distributors. The level of inventory in the channel will fluctuate up or down, each quarter, based upon our distributors’ individual operations. Accordingly, each quarter-end deferral of revenue and associated cost of goods sold is calculated and recorded based upon the actual channel inventory reported at quarter-end. Further, with respect to distributors and other channel partners not reporting channel inventory, the revenue and associated cost of goods sold are deferred until we receive payment for the product sales made to such distributors or channel partners.

The accuracy of the deferred revenue and costs depend to a large extent on the accuracy of the inventory reports provided by our distributors and other resellers and any material error in those reports would affect our revenue deferral. However, we believe that the controls we have in place including periodic physical inventory verifications and analytical reviews would help us identify and prevent any material errors in such reports.

 

The amounts of deferred cost of goods sold were included in consigned inventory. The following table details the amount of deferred revenue, cost of goods sold, and gross profit:

		As of
		June 30, 2011		December 31, 2010
Deferred Revenue		$ 3,753		$ 4,306
Deferred Cost of Goods Sold		1,393		1,742
Deferred Gross Profit		$ 2,360		$ 2,564

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

We offer rebates and market development funds to certain of our distributors, dealers/resellers, and end-users based upon volume of product purchased by them. We record rebates as a reduction of revenue in accordance with GAAP.

 

We offer credit terms on the sale of our products to a majority of our customers and perform ongoing credit evaluations of our customers’ financial condition. We maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability or unwillingness of our customers to make required payments based upon our historical collection experience and expected collectability of all accounts receivable. Our actual bad debts in future periods may differ from our current estimates and the differences may be material, which may have an adverse impact on our future accounts receivable and cash position.

 

Impairment of Goodwill and Intangible Assets

We allocated the purchase price of our acquisition of NetStreams, Inc. on the basis of well established valuation techniques performed by qualified experts. Goodwill is measured as the excess of the cost of acquisition over the sum of the amounts assigned to tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired less liabilities assumed. We intend to perform impairment tests of goodwill and intangible assets with an indefinite useful life, on an annual basis in the fourth fiscal quarter, or sooner if a triggering event occurs suggesting possible impairment of the values of these assets. As of June 30, 2011, $726,000 and $400,000 have been recorded as goodwill and intangible assets with an indefinite useful life, respectively.

In response to changes in industry, technology and competitive circumstances we might be required to exit or dispose of the business acquired through NetStreams, Inc., which could result in an impairment of goodwill and intangible assets.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

 

We assess the impairment of long-lived assets, such as property and equipment and definite-lived intangibles subject to amortization, annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value 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 or asset group to estimated future undiscounted net cash flows of the related asset or group of assets over their remaining lives. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated future undiscounted cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the estimated fair value of the asset. Impairment of long-lived assets is assessed at the lowest levels for which there are identifiable cash flows that are independent of other groups of assets. The impairment of long-lived assets requires judgments and estimates.  If circumstances change, such estimates could also change. Assets held for sale are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value, less the estimated costs to sell.

 

Accounting for Income Taxes

We are subject to income taxes in both the United States and in certain non-U.S. jurisdictions. We estimate our current tax position together with our future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences resulting from differing treatment of items, such as deferred revenue, depreciation, and other reserves for tax and accounting purposes. These temporary differences result in deferred tax assets and liabilities. We must then assess the likelihood that our deferred tax assets will be recovered from future taxable income, prior year carryback, or future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences. To the extent we believe that recovery is not more likely than not, we establish a valuation allowance against these deferred tax assets. Significant judgment is required in determining our provision for income taxes, our deferred tax assets and liabilities, and any valuation allowance recorded against our deferred tax assets. To the extent we establish a valuation allowance in a period we must include and expense the allowance within the tax provision in the consolidated statement of operations. Our valuation allowance at June 30, 2011 is $1.0 million.

Lower-of-Cost or Market Adjustments and Reserves for Excess and Obsolete Inventory

We account for our inventory on a first-in, first-out basis, and make appropriate adjustments on a quarterly basis to write-down the value of inventory to the lower-of-cost or market. In addition to the price of the product purchased, the cost of inventory includes our internal manufacturing costs including warehousing, material purchasing, quality and product planning expenses.

We perform a quarterly analysis of obsolete and slow-moving inventory to determine if any inventory needs to be written down. In general, we write-down our excess and obsolete inventory by an amount that is equal to the difference between the cost of the inventory and its estimated market value if market value is less than cost, based upon assumptions about future product life-cycles, product demand, shelf life of the product, inter-changeability of the product and market conditions. Those items that are found to have a supply in excess of our estimated current demand are considered to be slow-moving or obsolete and classified as long-term. An appropriate reserve is made to write-down the value of that inventory to its expected realizable value. These charges are recorded in cost of goods sold. The reserve against slow-moving or obsolete inventory is established based on several factors which among other things require us to make an estimate of a product’s life-cycle, potential demand and our ability to sell these products at estimated price levels. While we make considerable efforts to calculate reasonable estimates of these variables, actual results may vary. If there were to be a sudden and significant decrease in demand for our products, or if there were a higher incidence of inventory obsolescence because of changing technology and customer requirements, we could be required to increase our inventory allowances, and our gross profit could be adversely affected.

Share-Based Payment

Prior to June 30, 2005 and as permitted under the then existing FASB guidelines under SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation”, we accounted for our share-based payments following the recognition and measurement principles of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,” as interpreted. Accordingly, no share-based compensation expense had been reflected in our statements of operations for unmodified option grants since (1) the exercise price equaled the market value of the underlying common stock on the grant date and (2) the related number of shares to be granted upon exercise of the stock option was fixed on the grant date.

 

In December 2004, the FASB issued guidelines now contained under FASB ASC Topic 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation. ASC Topic 718 establishes standards for the accounting for transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods or services. Primarily, this Topic focuses on accounting for transactions in which an entity obtains employee services in share-based payment transactions. It also addresses transactions in which an entity incurs liabilities in exchange for goods or services that are based on the fair value of the entity’s equity instruments or that may be settled by the issuance of those equity instruments. Under ASC Topic 718, we measure the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant date fair value of the award (with limited exceptions). That cost will be recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for the awards – the requisite service period (usually the vesting period). No compensation cost is recognized for equity instruments for which employees do not render the requisite service. Therefore, if an employee does not ultimately render the requisite service, the costs associated with the unvested options will not be recognized cumulatively.

CLEARONE COMMUNICATIONS, INC.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Effective July 1, 2005, we adopted the guidelines contained in ASC Topic 718 and its fair value recognition provisions using the modified prospective transition method. Under this transition method, stock-based compensation cost recognized after July 1, 2005 includes the straight-line basis compensation cost for (a) all share-based payments granted prior to July 1, 2005, but not yet vested, based on the grant date fair values used for the pro-forma disclosures under the original SFAS No. 123 and (b) all share-based payments granted or modified on or after July 1, 2005, in accordance with the provisions of ASC Topic 718.

 

Under ASC Topic 718, we recognize compensation cost net of an anticipated forfeiture rate and recognize the associated compensation cost for those awards expected to vest on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period. We use judgment in determining the fair value of the share-based payments on the date of grant using an option-pricing model with assumptions regarding a number of highly complex and subjective variables. These variables include, but are not limited to, the risk-free interest rate of the awards, the expected life of the awards, the expected volatility over the term of the awards, the expected dividends of the awards, and an estimate of the amount of awards that are expected to be forfeited. If assumptions change in the application of ASC Topic 718 and its fair value recognition provisions in future periods, the stock-based compensation cost ultimately recorded under the guidelines of ASC Topic 718 may differ significantly from what was recorded in the current period.

Former Officer Indemnification.  Flood:  On November 29, 2010, ClearOne filed a motion in the United States District Court for the District of Utah seeking a turn-over of $248,000 ClearOne previously paid into the court’s escrow account and for restitution from Flood’s attorneys $373,000 paid to them by ClearOne as compelled by the U.S. District Court’s January 2009 preliminary injunction order which was subsequently vacated by the United States Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit on August 30, 2010.  ClearOne’s motion for a turn-over of the escrow money and for restitution of the amount paid to Flood’s attorneys remains pending.

Strohm:  On June 8, 2011, the Utah State court entered a judgment in Strohm’s indemnification case against ClearOne in the amount of $2.2 million for fees and expenses incurred in connection with Strohm’s criminal case defending herself and civil case against ClearOne, and interest. ClearOne has paid to Strohm’s counsel, under protest, the outstanding criminal case fees and expenses of $973,000, and the balance of the judgment has been paid to the Third Judicial District Court in Salt Lake City, Utah as a cash bond.  Both ClearOne and Strohm’s counsel have appealed the judgment and ClearOne requested that the Utah Supreme Court retain jurisdiction to hear and resolve the appeal.  On August 4, 2011, the highest court in the state of Utah, the Utah Supreme Court, decided to retain the appeal on its docket and vacated its prior order transferring the appeal to the Utah Court of Appeals.

ARS Special Arbitration. In January 2010, we filed an arbitration proceeding against UBS Financial Services, Inc. (“UBS”) with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) pursuant to the Auction Rate Securities (“ARS”) Special Arbitration Procedures established by FINRA for securities firms who entered into settlement agreements with the SEC regarding the firms’ sales of auction rate securities.  We also filed a separate FINRA arbitration proceeding against Morgan Stanley & Co., Inc. (“Morgan Stanley”) pursuant to the ARS Special Arbitration Proceedings established for securities firms that entered into settlement agreements with the Office of the New York State Attorney General.  At the relevant time we held an aggregate of $12.2 million in ARS from UBS and Morgan Stanley, which turned out to be illiquid.  In October 2008, we accepted offers to repurchase our $12.2 million of ARS, at par value, from these two investment banks that sold them to us pursuant to the settlement agreements, but did not waive any claims for consequential damages.   In both arbitration proceedings, we are seeking consequential damages as a result of our inability to access funds invested in ARS that UBS and Morgan Stanley sold to us, including losses with respect to a planned strategic business acquisition and related due diligence costs.  The arbitration against Morgan Stanley is currently set for hearing in Salt Lake City, Utah beginning in October 2011, and the arbitration against UBS is currently set for hearing in Salt Lake City, Utah in January 2012.  We cannot predict the outcome of these proceedings.

Theft of Intellectual Property and Related Cases. Oral argument was held on the appeals on May 10, 2011.  On June 27, 2011, the Tenth Circuit affirmed in all respects the verdict and related rulings against the WideBand Defendants.  On July 8, 2011, the Tenth Circuit affirmed the contempt orders against Donald Bowers and the other contempt defendants.  On August 8, 2011, the Tenth Circuit affirmed Biamp’s liability, including the federal district court’s award of exemplary damages based upon the finding that Biamp’s misappropriation was willful and malicious, but made two reductions in the amount of damages.  The amount of ClearOne’s judgment against Biamp is estimated to be $3.7 million, not including additional amounts that may be awarded for attorney fees.  This amount reflects reductions by the Tenth Circuit Court of Appeals of approximately $1.1 million from the federal district court’s previous judgment of about $4.8 million.  On August 9, 2011, the Tenth Circuit denied ClearOne’s appeal requesting additional pre-judgment interest.

We expect to collect the judgment against Biamp from the approximately $3.7 million cash bond posted by Biamp.  As of the issuance date of this filing, we have not collected this judgment and are awaiting any further action by Biamp.  As to the balance of the awards against the other defendants, while we intend to vigorously pursue collection of the damage awards, there can be no assurance that we will ultimately collect on all or a portion of these award.
