NOTES
TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
Note
1. Basis
of Presentation and Management’s Liquidity Plans
Basis of Presentation
- The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements
include the accounts of Andrea Electronics Corporation and its subsidiaries
("Andrea" or the “Company”). All intercompany balances and transactions have
been eliminated in consolidation.
These
unaudited, condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the
instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the
information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial
statements. In addition, the December 31, 2008 balance sheet data was
derived from the audited consolidated financial statements, but does not include
all disclosures required by GAAP. In the opinion of management, all
adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a
fair presentation have been included. The results of operations of any interim
period are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be
expected for any other interim period or for the fiscal year.
These
unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto
for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008 included in the Company's Form 10-K
for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008, filed on March 31,
2009. The accounting policies used in preparing these unaudited
condensed consolidated interim financial statements are consistent with those
described in the December 31, 2008 audited consolidated financial
statements.
Management's Liquidity
Plans - As of March 31, 2009, Andrea had working capital of $2,065,160
and cash on hand of $1,681,220. Andrea’s loss from operations was
$285,099 for the three months ended March 31, 2009. Andrea plans to
continue to improve its cash flows during 2009 by aggressively pursuing
additional licensing opportunities related to Andrea DSP Audio Software and
increasing its Andrea Anti-Noise Headset Products sales through sales of a
refreshed product line, which the Company introduced in September 2008, as well
as the increased efforts the Company is dedicating to its sales and marketing
efforts. However, there can be no assurance that Andrea will be able
to successfully execute the aforementioned plans.
As of May
11, 2009, Andrea has approximately $1,600,000 of cash. Management projects that
Andrea has sufficient liquidity available to operate through at least March
2010. While Andrea explores opportunities to increase revenues in new
business areas, the Company also continues to examine additional opportunities
for cost reduction and further diversification of its business. Since
the third quarter of 2006, Andrea has generated cash flows from
operations. If Andrea fails to develop additional revenues from sales
of its products and licensing of its technology or to generate adequate funding
from operations, or if Andrea fails to obtain additional financing through a
capital transaction or other type of financing, Andrea will be required to
continue to significantly reduce its operating expenses and/or operations or
Andrea may have to relinquish its products, technologies or markets which could
have a materially adverse effect on revenue and operations. Andrea has no
commitment for additional financing and may experience difficulty in obtaining
additional financing on favorable terms, if at all.

of Significant Accounting Policies
Loss Per Share -
Basic loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted
average number of common shares outstanding during the
period. Diluted loss per share adjusts basic loss per share for the
effects of convertible securities, stock options and other potentially dilutive
financial instruments, only in the periods in which such effect is
dilutive. Securities that could potentially dilute basic loss per
share (“EPS”) in the future that were not included in the computation of the
diluted EPS because to do so would have been anti-dilutive for the periods
presented, consist of the following:

Allowance for Doubtful
Accounts - The Company performs on-going credit evaluations of its
customers and adjusts credit limits based upon payment history and the
customer’s current credit worthiness, as determined by the review of their
current credit information. Collections and payments from customers
are continuously monitored. The Company maintains an allowance for
doubtful accounts, which is based upon historical experience as well as specific
customer collection issues that have been identified. While such bad
debt expenses have historically been within expectations and allowances
established, the Company cannot guarantee that it will continue to experience
the same credit loss rates that it has in the past. If the financial
condition of customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their
ability to make payments, additional allowances may be required.
Inventories -
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (on a first-in, first-out) or market
basis. The cost elements of inventories include materials, labor and
overhead. Andrea reviews its inventory reserve for obsolescence on a
quarterly basis and establishes reserves on inventories when the cost of the
inventory is not expected to be recovered. Andrea’s policy is to
reserve for inventory that shows slow movement over the preceding six
consecutive quarters. Andrea records charges in inventory reserves as
part of its cost of revenues.

Intangible and Long-Lived
Assets - Andrea accounts for its long-lived assets in accordance with
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 144, “Accounting for
the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets” for purposes of determining and
measuring impairment of its long-lived assets (primarily intangible assets)
other than goodwill. Andrea’s policy is to periodically review the value
assigned to its long-lived assets to determine if they have been permanently
impaired by adverse conditions which may affect Andrea. If Andrea identifies a
permanent impairment such that the carrying amount of Andrea’s long lived assets
are not recoverable using the sum of an undiscounted cash flow projection (gross
margin dollars from product revenues), a new cost basis for the impaired asset
will be established. If required, an impairment charge is recorded based on an
estimate of future discounted cash flows. This new cost basis will be
net of any recorded impairment. At March 31, 2009 and December 31,
2008, Andrea concluded that the Andrea DSP Microphone and Audio Software
Products business segment was not required to be tested for
recoverability.

ELECTRONICS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

(UNAUDITED)
Andrea
amortizes its core technology, patents and trademarks on a straight-line basis
over the estimated useful lives of its intangible assets that range from 15 to
17 years. Amortization expense was $118,888 and $118,314 for the
three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively.
Revenue Recognition –
Non-software related revenue, which is generally comprised of microphones and
microphone connectivity product revenues, is recognized when title and risk of
loss pass to the customer, which is generally upon shipment. With
respect to licensing revenues, Andrea recognizes revenue in accordance with
Statement of Position (“SOP”) 97-2, “Software Revenue Recognition,” as amended,
and Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 13 “Revenue Recognition in Financial
Statements.” License revenue is recognized based on the terms and
conditions of individual contracts (see Note 5). In addition, fee
based services, which are short-term in nature, are generally performed on a
time-and-material basis under separate service arrangements and the
corresponding revenue is generally recognized as the services are
performed.
Income Taxes - The
provision for income taxes is a result of certain licensing revenues that are
subject to withholding of income tax as mandated by the foreign jurisdiction in
which the revenues are earned. For all other income taxes, Andrea
accounts for income taxes in accordance with SFAS No. 109, “Accounting for
Income Taxes” and Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Interpretation
No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes – an interpretation of FASB
Statement No. 109” (“FIN 48”). SFAS No. 109 requires an asset and
liability approach for financial accounting and reporting for income
taxes. FIN 48 establishes for all entities a minimum threshold for
financial statement recognition of the benefit of tax positions, and requires
certain expanded disclosures. Using both of the guidelines set forth
in these statements, the provision for income taxes is based upon income or loss
after adjustment for those permanent items that are not considered in the
determination of taxable income. Deferred income taxes represent the tax effects
of differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of the Company’s
assets and liabilities at the enacted tax rates in effect for the years in which
the differences are expected to reverse. The Company evaluates the
recoverability of deferred tax assets and establishes a valuation allowance when
it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets
will not be realized. Since cumulative losses weigh heavily in the
overall assessment, Andrea provides a full valuation allowance on future tax
benefits until it can sustain a level of profitability that demonstrates its
ability to utilize the assets, or other significant positive evidence arises
that suggests Andrea’s ability to utilize such assets. If it becomes
more likely than not that a tax asset will be used, the related valuation
allowance on such assets would be reversed. Management makes
judgments as to the interpretation of the tax laws that might be challenged upon
an audit and cause changes to previous estimates of tax liability. In
management’s opinion, adequate provisions for income taxes have been made for
all years. If actual taxable income by tax jurisdiction varies from
estimates, additional allowances or reversals of reserves may be
necessary. Income tax expense consists of the tax payable for the
period and the change during the period in deferred tax assets and
liabilities. The Company has identified its federal tax return and
its state tax return in New York as "major" tax jurisdictions, as defined in FIN
48. Based on the Company's evaluation, it has been concluded that
there are no significant uncertain tax positions requiring recognition in the
Company's financial statements. The Company's evaluation was
performed for tax years ended 2003 through 2008. The Company believes
that its income tax positions and deductions will be sustained on audit and does
not anticipate any adjustments that will result in a material change to its
financial position.
Stock-Based
Compensation - At March 31, 2009, Andrea had three stock-based employee
compensation plans, which are described more fully in Note 7. Andrea
accounts for stock based compensation in accordance with SFAS No. 123R,
“Share-Based Payment.” SFAS No. 123R establishes accounting for
stock-based awards exchanged for employee services. Under the
provisions of SFAS No. 123R, share-based compensation cost is measured at the
grant date, based on the fair value of the award, and is recognized as expense
over the employee’s requisite service period (generally the vesting period of
the equity grant). The fair value of the Company’s common stock
options are estimated using the Black Scholes option-pricing model with the
following assumptions: expected volatility, dividend rate, risk free
interest rate and the expected life. The Company expenses stock-based
compensation by using the straight-line method. In accordance with
SFAS No. 123R, excess tax benefits realized from the exercise of stock-based
awards are classified in cash flows from financing activities. The
future realization of the reserved deferred tax assets related to these tax
benefits associated with the exercise of stock option will result in a credit to
additional paid in capital if the related tax deduction reduces taxes
payable. The Company has elected the “with and without approach”
regarding ordering of windfall tax benefits to determine whether the windfall
tax benefit did reduce taxes payable in the current year. Under
this approach the windfall tax benefit would be recognized in additional
paid-in-capital only if an incremental tax benefit is realized after considering
all other benefits presently available.

Accounting
Pronouncements

In
December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141R, “Business Combinations” (“SFAS
141R”), which replaces SFAS No. 141, “Business Combinations.” SFAS 141R
establishes principles and requirements for determining how an enterprise
recognizes and measures the fair value of certain assets and liabilities
acquired in a business combination, including noncontrolling interests,
contingent consideration, and certain acquired contingencies. SFAS 141R also
requires acquisition-related transaction expenses and restructuring costs be
expensed as incurred rather than capitalized as a component of the business
combination. SFAS 141R will be applicable to the Company for fiscal 2009. SFAS
141R would have an impact on accounting for any businesses acquired after the
effective date of this pronouncement. The adoption of this pronouncement did not
have any material effects on the Company’s consolidated financial position,
results of operations or cash flows.
In
December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in
Consolidated Financial Statements – An Amendment of ARB No. 51” (“SFAS 160”).
SFAS 160 establishes accounting and reporting standards for the noncontrolling
interest in a subsidiary (previously referred to as minority interests). SFAS
160 also requires that a retained noncontrolling interest upon the
deconsolidation of a subsidiary be initially measured at its fair value. Upon
adoption of SFAS 160, the Company would be required to report any noncontrolling
interests as a separate component of stockholders’ equity. The
Company would also be required to present any net income allocable to
noncontrolling interests and net income attributable to the stockholders of the
Company separately in its consolidated statements of operations. SFAS 160 is
effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years,
beginning on or after December 15, 2008. SFAS 160 requires retroactive adoption
of the presentation and disclosure requirements for existing minority interests.
All other requirements of SFAS 160 shall be applied prospectively. SFAS 160
would have an impact on the presentation and disclosure of the noncontrolling
interests of any non wholly-owned businesses acquired in the future. The
adoption of this pronouncement did not have any material effects on the
Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash
flows.
In March
2008, the FASB issued SFAS 161, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and
Hedging Activities an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133”, which amends and
expands the disclosure requirements of SFAS 133 to require qualitative
disclosure about objectives and strategies for using derivatives, quantitative
disclosures about fair value amounts of and gains and losses on derivative
instruments, and disclosures about credit-risk-related contingent features in
derivative agreements. This statement was effective for the Company beginning on
January 1, 2009. The adoption of this statement did not impact the Company’s
current disclosures.
In June
2008, the FASB ratified EITF No. 07-5, "Determining Whether an Instrument (or an
Embedded Feature) is Indexed to an Entity's Own Stock" ("EITF 07-5"). EITF 07-5
provides that an entity should use a two-step approach to evaluate whether an
equity-linked financial instrument (or embedded feature) is indexed to its own
stock, including evaluating the instrument's contingent exercise and settlement
provisions. EITF 07-5 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal
years beginning after December 15, 2008. Early application is not
permitted. The adoption of this statement did not have an effect on
the Company’s consolidated financial position, liquidity, or results of
operations.
Reclassifications -
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year
presentation.
Use of Estimates -
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP, requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of
assets, liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the
date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and
expenses during the reporting period.
Management
bases its estimates on historical experience and on various assumptions that are
believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the
basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities
that are not readily apparent from other sources. The most
significant estimates, among other things, are used in accounting for allowances
for bad debts, inventory valuation and obsolescence, product warranty,
depreciation, deferred income taxes, expected realizable values for assets
(primarily intangible assets), contingencies, revenue recognition, as well as
the recording and presentation of the Company’s convertible preferred stock.
Estimates and assumptions are periodically reviewed and the effects of any
material revisions are reflected in the condensed consolidated financial
statements in the period that they are determined to be necessary. Actual
results could differ from those estimates and assumptions.

3. Series
C Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock
On October
10, 2000, Andrea issued and sold in a private placement $7,500,000 of Series C
Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series C Preferred
Stock”). Each of these shares of Series C Preferred Stock had a
stated value of $10,000 plus $1,671 increase in the stated value, which sum is
convertible into Common Stock at a conversion price of $0.2551. On
February 17, 2004, Andrea announced that it had entered into an Exchange and
Termination Agreement and an Acknowledgment and Waiver Agreement, which
eliminated the dividend of 5% per annum on the stated value. The
additional amount of $1,671 represents the 5% per annum from October 10, 2000
through February 17, 2004. The shares of Series C Preferred Stock are
subject to antidilution provisions, which are triggered in the event of certain
stock splits, recapitalizations, or other dilutive transactions. In
addition, issuances of common stock at a price below the conversion price then
in effect (currently $0.2551), or the issuance of warrants, options, rights, or
convertible securities which have an exercise price or conversion price less
than that conversion price, other than for certain previously outstanding
securities and certain “excluded securities” (as defined in the certificate of
amendment), require the adjustment of the conversion price to that lower price
at which shares of common stock have been issued or may be
acquired. In the event that Andrea issues securities in the future
which have a conversion price or exercise price which varies with the market
price and the terms of such variable price are more favorable than the
conversion price in the Series C Preferred Stock, the purchasers may elect to
substitute the more favorable variable price when making conversions of the
Series C Preferred Stock.

In
accordance with EITF 07-5, Andrea evaluated the Series C Preferred Stock and
concluded that it is not indexed to the Company’s stock because of the embedded
adjustment feature described above. Accordingly, under the provisions
of SFAS 133, Andrea evaluated the Series C Preferred Stock embedded adjustment
feature. The Company has concluded that the embedded adjustment
feature would be classified in stockholders’ equity if it were a freestanding
instrument as the Series C Preferred Stock is more akin to equity and as such it
should not be bifurcated from the Series C instrument and accounted for
separately.
As of
March 31, 2009, there were 89.701477 shares of Series C Preferred Stock
outstanding, which were convertible into 4,103,984 shares of Common Stock and
remaining accrued dividends of $149,912.
Note
4. Series
D Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock
On
February 17, 2004, Andrea entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement
(including a Registration Rights Agreement) with certain holders of the Series C
Preferred Stock and other investors (collectively, the “Buyers”) pursuant to
which the Buyers agreed to invest a total of $2,500,000. In
connection with this agreement, on February 23, 2004, the Buyers purchased, for
a purchase price of $1,250,000, an aggregate of 1,250,000 shares of a new class
of preferred stock, the Series D Preferred Stock, convertible into 5,000,000
shares of Common Stock (an effective conversion price of $0.25 per share) and
Common Stock warrants exercisable for an aggregate of 2,500,000 shares of Common
Stock. These warrants were exercisable at any time after August 17,
2004. at an exercise price of $0.38 per share. On February 23, 2009,
these warrants expired without being exercised.
In
addition, on June 4, 2004, the Buyers purchased for an additional $1,250,000, an
additional 1,250,000 shares of Series D Preferred Stock convertible into
5,000,000 shares of Common Stock (an effective conversion price of $0.25 per
share) and Common Stock warrants exercisable for an aggregate of 2,500,000
shares of Common Stock. The warrants are exercisable at any time
after December 4, 2004 and before June 4, 2009 at an exercise price of $0.17 per
share.
Knightsbridge
Capital served as a financial advisor to Andrea in connection with the
aforementioned transactions and the initial issuance of the Series D Preferred
Stock and related warrants. In connection with these transactions,
Andrea agreed to pay Knightsbridge Capital $350,000 in cash and issued warrants
exercisable for an aggregate of 439,594 shares of Common Stock. On February 23,
2009, 377,094 of these warrants expired without being exercised. The
remaining 62,500 of these warrants are exercisable at any time after December 4,
2004 and before June 4, 2009 at an exercise price of $0.17 per
share.
The shares
of Series D Preferred Stock are also subject to antidilution provisions, which
are triggered in the event of certain stock splits, recapitalizations, or other
dilutive transactions. In addition, issuances of common stock at a price below
the conversion price then in effect (currently $0.25), or the issuance of
warrants, options, rights, or convertible securities which have an exercise
price or conversion price less than that conversion price, other than for
certain previously outstanding securities and certain “excluded securities” (as
defined in the certificate of amendment), require the adjustment of the
conversion price to that lower price at which shares of common stock have been
issued or may be acquired. In the event that Andrea issues securities in the
future which have a conversion price or exercise price which varies with the
market price and the terms of such variable price are more favorable than the
conversion price in the Series D Preferred Stock, the purchasers may elect to
substitute the more favorable variable price when making conversions of the
Series D Preferred Stock. The Company is required to maintain an
effective registration statement from the time of issuance until the earlier of
(i) the date as of which the investors may sell all of the securities for the
common stock issuable under the Series D Preferred Stock covered by the
registration statement without restriction under SEC rules or (ii) the date on
which the investors shall have sold all the securities covered by the
registration statement. In addition, the Company is required to use
its best efforts to secure the inclusion for quotation on the Over the Counter
Bulletin Board for the common stock issuable under the Series D Preferred Stock
and to arrange for at least two market makers to register with the National
Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. In the event that the holder of the
Series D Preferred Stock and related warrants is unable to convert these
securities into Andrea Common stock the Company shall pay to each such holder of
such registrable securities a Registration Delay Payment. This
payment is to be paid in cash and is equal to the product of (i) the stated
value of such Preferred Shares multiplied by (ii) the product of (1) .0005
multiplied by (2) the number of days that sales cannot be made pursuant to the
Registration Statement (excluding any days during that may be considered grace
periods as defined by the Registration Rights Agreement).

Employment
Agreements
In
November 2008, the Company entered into an employment agreement with the
Chairman of the Board, Douglas J Andrea. The effective date of the
employment agreement is August 1, 2008 and expires July 31, 2010 and is subject
to renewal as approved by the Compensation Committee of the Board of
Directors. Pursuant to his employment agreement, Mr. Andrea will
receive an annual base salary of $312,500 through July 31, 2009 and for the
period of August 1, 2009 through July 31, 2010 Mr. Andrea will receive an annual
base salary of $325,000. The employment agreement provides for
quarterly bonuses equal to 25% of the Company’s pre-bonus net after tax
quarterly earnings in excess of $25,000 for a total quarterly bonus amount not
to exceed $12,500; and annual bonuses equal to 10% of the Company’s annual
pre-bonus net after tax earnings in excess of $300,000. All bonuses
shall be payable as soon as the Company's cash flow permits. All
bonus determinations or any additional bonus in excess of the above will be made
in the sole discretion of the Compensation Committee. On August 8, 2008, the
Board of Directors granted Mr. Andrea 2,000,000 stock options and 1,000,000
stock options with an aggregate fair value of $120,000 (fair value was estimated
using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model). The 2,000,000 grant
vests in three equal annual installments over a three year period commencing
August 1, 2009. The 1,000,000 grant vests in three equal annual
installments over a three year period commencing August 1, 2010. All
stock options granted have an exercise price of $0.04 per share, which was the
fair market value of the Company’s common stock at the date of grant, and a term
of 10 years. Pursuant to the employment agreement and subject to the
approval of the Board of Directors, the Compensation Committee will recommend a
second grant of 1,000,000 stock options as soon as practical after August 1,
2009, with an exercise price equal to the per share fair market value of the
Company’s common stock on the date of grant. Mr. Andrea is also
entitled to a change in control payment equal to two times his salary with
continuation of health and medical benefits for two years in the event of a
change in control, as defined in the agreement. At March 31, 2009,
the future minimum cash commitments under this agreement aggregate
$429,167.

In
November 1999, as amended August 2008, the Company entered into a change in
control agreement with the Chief Financial Officer, Corisa L.
Guiffre. This agreement provides for a change in control payment
equal to three times her average annual compensation for the five preceding
taxable years, with continuation of health and medical benefits for three years
in the event of a change in control of the Company, as defined in the agreement,
and subsequent termination of employment other than for cause.
Legal
Proceedings
Andrea is
involved in routine litigation incidental to the normal course of business.
While it is not feasible to predict or determine the final outcome of claims,
Andrea believes the resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse
effect on Andrea’s financial position, results of operations or
liquidity.
Note
7. Stock
Plans and Stock Based Compensation
In 1991,
the Board of Directors of Andrea adopted the 1991 Performance Equity Plan (“1991
Plan”), which was approved subsequently by the shareholders. The 1991 Plan, as
amended, authorizes the granting of awards, the exercise of which would allow up
to an aggregate of 4,000,000 shares of Andrea’s Common Stock to be acquired by
the holders of those awards. Stock options granted to employees and
directors under the 1991 Plan were granted for terms of up to 10 years at an
exercise price equal to the market value at the date of grant. No
further awards will be granted under the 1991 Plan.
In 1998,
the Board of Directors adopted the 1998 Stock Option Plan (“1998 Plan”), which
was subsequently approved by the shareholders. The 1998 Plan, as amended,
authorizes the granting of awards, the exercise of which would allow up to an
aggregate of 6,375,000 shares of Andrea’s Common Stock to be acquired by the
holders of those awards. The awards can take the form of stock
options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, deferred stock, stock
reload options or other stock-based awards. Awards may be granted to key
employees, officers, directors and consultants. No further awards
will be granted under the 1998 Plan.
In October
2006, the Board of Directors adopted the Andrea Electronics Corporation 2006
Equity Compensation Plan (“2006 Plan”), which was subsequently approved by the
shareholders. The 2006 Plan authorizes the granting of awards, the
exercise of which would allow up to an aggregate of 10,000,000 shares of
Andrea’s Common Stock to be acquired by the holders of those
awards. The awards can take the form of stock options, stock
appreciation rights, restricted stock or other stock-based awards. Awards may be
granted to key employees, officers, directors and consultants. At
March, 31, 2009, there were 101,345 shares available for further issuance under
the 2006 Plan.
The stock
option awards granted under these plans have been granted with an exercise price
equal to the market price of the Company’s stock at the date of grant; with
vesting periods of up to four years and 10-year contractual terms.
The fair
values of each stock option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the
Black-Scholes option-pricing model that uses the weighted-average assumptions
noted in the following table. Expected volatilities are based on
implied volatilities from historical volatility of the Company’s
stock. The expected term of options granted represents the period of
time that options granted are expected to be outstanding. The
risk-free rate for periods within the contractual life of the option is based on
the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant.
There were
no options granted during the three months ended March 31, 2009 or
2008.

average exercise price of $0.06 and a weighted average fair value of $0.05 per
option. Based on the March 31, 2009 fair market value of the
Company’s common stock of $0.05, the aggregate intrinsic value for the
14,536,820 options outstanding and 6,950,635 shares exercisable is $52,950 and
$49,101, respectively.
Total
compensation expense recognized related to stock option awards was $54,889 and
$53,816 for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008,
respectively. In the accompanying consolidated statement of
operations for the three months ended March 31, 2009, $44,278 of expense is
included in general, administrative and selling expenses, $10,389 is included in
research and development expenses and $222 is included in cost of
revenues. In the accompanying consolidated statement of operations

general, administrative and selling expenses, $11,550 is included in research
and development expenses and $381 is included in cost of revenues.
As of
March 31, 2009, there was $181,725 of total unrecognized compensation cost
related to nonvested share-based compensation arrangements granted under the
1998 and 2006 Plans. This unrecognized compensation cost is expected
to be recognized over the next 3 years ($111,748 in 2009, $57,056 in 2010 and
$12,921 in 2011).
Pursuant
to Andrea’s compensation policy for outside directors, on August 8, 2008 and
September 12, 2007, Andrea granted 500,000 shares of Common Stock with a fair
market value of $0.04 and 400,000 shares of Common Stock with a fair market
value of $0.05, respectively. These stock grants were fully vested on
the date of grant. Compensation expense related to these awards was
$5,001 and $5,001 for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008,
respectively.
Note
8. Segment
Information
Andrea
follows the provisions of SFAS No. 131, “Disclosures about Segments of an
Enterprise and Related Information.” Reportable operating segments are
determined based on Andrea’s management approach. The management approach, as
defined by SFAS No. 131, is based on the way that the chief operating
decision-maker organizes the segments within an enterprise for making operating
decisions and assessing performance. While Andrea’s results of operations are
primarily reviewed on a consolidated basis, the chief operating decision-maker
also manages the enterprise in two segments: (i) Andrea DSP Microphone and Audio
Software Products and (ii) Andrea Anti-Noise Products. Andrea DSP
Microphone and Audio Software Products primarily include products based on the
use of some, or all, of the following technologies: Andrea Digital Super
Directional Array microphone technology (DSDA), Andrea Direction Finding and
Tracking Array microphone technology (DFTA), Andrea PureAudio noise filtering
technology, and Andrea EchoStop, an advanced acoustic echo cancellation
technology. Andrea Anti-Noise Products include noise cancellation and
active noise cancellation computer headset products and related computer
peripheral products.

MANAGEMENT’S
DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDIDTION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS
|
Overview
Our
mission is to provide the emerging “voice interface” markets with
state-of-the-art communications products that facilitate natural language,
human/machine interfaces.
Examples
of the applications and interfaces for which Andrea DSP Microphone and Audio
Software Products and Andrea Anti-Noise Products provide benefit include:
Internet and other computer-based speech; telephony communications; multi-point
conferencing; speech recognition; multimedia; multi-player Internet and CD ROM
interactive games; and other applications and interfaces that incorporate
natural language processing. We believe that end users of these applications and
interfaces will require high quality microphone and earphone products that
enhance voice transmission, particularly in noisy environments, for use with
personal computers, mobile personal computing devices, cellular and other
wireless communication devices and automotive communication systems. Our Andrea
DSP Microphone and Audio Software Products use “far-field” digital signal
processing technology to provide high quality transmission of voice where the
user is at a distance from the microphone. High quality audio communication
technologies will be required for emerging far-field voice applications, ranging
from continuous speech dictation, to Internet telephony and multiparty video
teleconferencing and collaboration, to natural language-driven interfaces for
automobiles, home and office automation and other machines and devices into
which voice-controlled microprocessors are expected to be introduced during the
next several years.
We
outsource to Asia high volume assembly for most of our products from purchased
components. We assemble some low volume Andrea DSP Microphone and
Audio Software Products from purchased components. As sales of any particular
Andrea DSP Microphone and Audio Software Product increases, assembly operations
are transferred to a subcontractor in Asia.
Our
Critical Accounting Policies
Our
unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the notes to our
unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain information that
is pertinent to management's discussion and analysis. The preparation
of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. Management bases
its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are
believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the
basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities
that are not readily apparent from other sources. On a continual
basis, management reviews its estimates utilizing currently available
information, changes in facts and circumstances, historical experience and
reasonable assumptions. After such reviews, and if deemed
appropriate, those estimates are adjusted accordingly. Actual results
may vary from these estimates and assumptions under different and/or future
circumstances. Our significant accounting policies are described in
Note 2 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008. A
discussion of our critical accounting policies and estimates are included in
Management’s Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation in our Annual Report
on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008. Management has discussed the
development and selection of these policies with the Audit Committee of the
Company’s Board of Directors, and the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors
has reviewed the Company’s disclosures of these policies. There have
been no material changes to the critical accounting policies or estimates
reported in the Management’s Discussion and Analysis section of the 10K for the
year ended December 31, 2008 as filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission.
Cautionary
Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This
report contains forward-looking statements that are based on assumptions and may
describe future plans, strategies and expectations of the
Company. These forward-looking statements are generally identified by
use of the words “believe”, “expect”, “intend”, “anticipate”, “estimate”,
“project” or similar expressions. The Company’s ability to predict
results or the actual effect of future plans or strategies is inherently
uncertain. Factors which could have a material adverse effect on the operations
of the Company and its subsidiaries include, but are not limited to, changes in
economic, competitive, governmental, technological and other factors that may
affect our business and prospects. Additional factors are discussed
below under “Risk Factors” and in Part I, “Item 1A – Risk Factors” in the Company’s Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008. These risks
and uncertainties should be considered in evaluating forward-looking statements
and undue reliance should not be placed on such statements. Except as
required by applicable law or regulation, the Company does not undertake, and
specifically disclaims any obligation, to release publicly the result of any
revisions that may be made to any forward-looking statements to reflect events
or circumstances after the date of the statements or to reflect the occurrence
of anticipated or unanticipated events.
Risk
Factors
Our
operating results are subject to significant fluctuation, period-to-period
comparisons of our operating results may not necessarily be meaningful and you
should not rely on them as indications of our future performance.
Our
results of operations have historically been and are subject to continued
substantial annual and quarterly fluctuations. The causes of these fluctuations
include, among other things:
|
–
|
the
volume of sales of our products under our collaborative marketing
arrangements;
|
|
–
|
the
cost of development of our
products;
|
|
–
|
the
mix of products we sell;
|
|
–
|
the
mix of distribution channels we
use;
|
|
–
|
the
timing of our new product releases and those of our
competitors;
|
|
–
|
fluctuations
in the computer and communications hardware and software
marketplace;
|
|
–
|
general
economic conditions.
|
We cannot
assure that the level of revenues and gross profit, if any, that we achieve in
any particular fiscal period will not be significantly lower than in other
fiscal periods. Our net revenues for the three months ended March 31,
2009 were $821,580 versus $926,640 for the three months ended March 31,
2008. Net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2009 was
$283,864, or $0.00 loss per share on a basic and diluted basis, and $361,272, or
$0.01 per share on a basic and diluted basis for the three months ended March
31, 2008. We continue to explore opportunities to grow sales in other business
areas; we are also examining additional opportunities for cost reduction,
production efficiencies and further diversification of our
business. Although we have improved cash flows by reducing overall
expenses, if our revenues continue to decline we may not continue to generate
positive cash flows and our net income or loss may be affected.
If
we fail to obtain additional capital or maintain access to funds sufficient to
meet our operating needs, we may be required to significantly reduce, sell, or
refocus our operations and our business, results of operations and financial
condition could be materially and adversely effected.
In order
to be a viable entity we need to maintain and increase profitable
operations. To continue to achieve profitable operations we need to
maintain or increase current net revenues and continue to look for ways to
control expenses. We might also need to sell additional assets or
raise capital as a means of funding continued operations. In recent
years, we have sustained significant operating losses. We may have to
raise additional capital from external sources. These sources may
include private or public financings through the issuance of debt, convertible
debt or equity, or collaborative arrangements. Such additional
capital and funding may not be available on favorable terms, if at
all. Additionally, we may only be able to obtain additional capital
or funds through arrangements that require us to relinquish rights to our
products, technologies or potential markets, in whole or in part, or result in
our sale. As a result of the past few years of performance, we
believe that we have sufficient liquidity to continue our operations at least
through March 2010, provided our net revenues do not decline and our operating
expenses do not increase. Although we have revised our business
strategies to reduce our expenses and capital expenditures, we cannot assure you
that we will be successful in generating positive cash flows or obtaining access
to additional sources of funding in amounts necessary to continue our
operations. Failure to maintain sufficient access to funding may also
result in our inability to continue operations.
Shares
Eligible For Future Sale May Have An Adverse Effect On Market Price and Andrea
Shareholders May Experience Substantial Dilution.
Sales of a
substantial number of shares of our common stock in the public market could have
the effect of depressing the prevailing market price of our common
stock. Of the 200,000,000 shares of common stock presently
authorized, 60,978,373 were outstanding as of May 11, 2009. The number of shares
outstanding does not include an aggregate of 25,223,403 shares of common stock
that are issuable. This number of issuable common shares is equal to
approximately 41% of the 60,978,373 outstanding shares. These
issuable common shares are comprised of: a) 14,536,820 shares of our
common stock reserved for issuance upon exercise of outstanding awards granted
under our 1991 Performance Equity Plan, 1998 Stock Plan and 2006 Stock Plan; b)
101,345 shares reserved for future grants under our 2006 Stock Plan; c)
4,103,984 shares of common stock that are issuable upon conversion of the Series
C Preferred Stock; d) 4,200,004 shares of common stock issuable upon conversion
of the Series D Preferred Stock; and e) 2,281,250 of common stock issuable upon
exercise of warrants relating to the Series D Preferred stock.
In
addition to the risk factors set forth above and the other information set forth
in this report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in Part I,
“Item 1A – Risk
Factors” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 2008, which could materially affect our business, financial
condition or future results. The risks described in this report and in our
Annual Report on Form 10-K are not the only risks that we face. Additional risks
and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be
immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial
condition and/or operating results.

(a)
|
The
slight increase of sales of Andrea Anti-Noise Products is directly related
to increased purchases by an OEM customer for use with speech recognition
software during the three month ended March 31, 2009 as compared to the
same period in 2008. We believe that our annual revenues for
2009 associated with this customer will be approximately
$250,000.
|
(b)
|
The
significant decreases of revenues of microphone array products to an OEM
customer relates to the decreased demand from the OEM
customer. We believe that this decrease is the result of the
OEM deciding not to continue including a microphone array with all
applicable product models. We do not expect any revenues from
the OEM for this product in 2009.
|
(c)
|
The
decrease in consulting revenue relates to an OEM customer selling the
business line for which the consulting revenue
related.
|
(d)
|
The
19% decrease in all other Andrea DSP Microphone and Audio product revenues
for the three month period ended March 31, 2009 is a result of timing of
shipments related to this product
line.
|
(e)
|
The
majority of the increase in licensing revenues for the three months ended
March 31, 2009 is
a result of one of our OEM licensing partner’s initial launch of one of
our licensed products in their product line offset in part by a second of
our OEM licensing partners selling the business line. Although
we have entered into a new license agreement with this second partner’s
successor, we have not realized revenues as of March 31, 2009 related to
this new license agreement. Additionally, we do not expect the
revenues to remain at the level of the
predecessor.

Cost of
Revenues
Cost of
revenues as a percentage of net revenues for the three months ended March 31,
2009 decreased to 39% from 52% for the three months ended March 31,
2008. The cost of revenues as a percentage of net revenues for the
three months ended March 31, 2009 for Andrea Anti-Noise Products is 51% compared
to 63% for the three months ended March 31, 2008. The cost of
revenues as a percentage of net revenues for the three months ended March 31,
2009 for Andrea DSP Microphone and Audio Software Products is 16% compared to
38% for the three months ended March 31, 2008. The decrease for
Andrea Anti-Noise Products is a result of the mix of products
sold. The products sold during the three months ended March 31, 2009
were sold at a higher profit margin then those products during the three months
ended March 31, 2008. The decrease for Andrea DSP Microphone and
Audio Software Products is a result of the decreased sales of array microphone
products to an OEM customer as well as an increase in licensing
revenues.
Research and
Development
Research
and development expenses for the three months ended March 31,
2009 decreased 23% to $149,513 from $193,404 for the three months ended
March 31, 2008. This decrease primarily relates to decreases in
employee compensation and related benefit costs. For the three months
ended March 31, 2009, the decrease in research and development expenses reflects
a 38% decrease in our Andrea DSP Microphone and Audio Software Technology
efforts to $82,489, or 55% of total research and development
expenses, partially offset by a 12% increase in our Andrea Anti-Noise
Headset Product efforts to $67,024, or 45% of total research and development
expenses. With respect to DSP Microphone and Audio Software
technologies, research efforts are primarily focused on the pursuit of
commercializing a natural language-driven human/machine interface by developing
optimal far-field microphone solutions for various voice-driven interfaces,
incorporating Andrea’s digital super directional array microphone technology,
and certain other related technologies such as noise suppression and stereo
acoustic echo cancellation. We believe that continued research and
development spending should provide Andrea with a competitive
advantage.
General, Administrative and
Selling Expenses
General,
administrative and selling expenses increased approximately 4% to $634,421 for
the three months ended March 31, 2009 from $610,174 for the three months
ended March 31, 2008. This increase is principally related to the
employment agreement entered into with the Company’s President and Chief
Executive Officer in August 2008 as well as the hire of an employee dedicated to
the Company’s sales and marketing efforts. For the three months ended
March 31, 2009, the increase reflects a 30% increase in our Andrea Anti-Noise
Headset Product efforts to $293,657, or 46% of total general, administrative and
selling expenses offset in part by a 3% decrease in our Andrea DSP Microphone
and Audio Software Technology efforts to $340,764, or 54% of total general,
administrative and selling expenses.
Interest Income,
net
Other
income, net, for the three months ended March 31, 2009 was $2,492 compared to
$2,874 for the three months ended March 31, 2008.
Provision for Income
Taxes
The
provision for income taxes the three months ended March 31, 2009 was $1,257
compared to a provision for income taxes of $2,073 for the three months ended
March 31, 2008. The decrease is a result of a decrease of certain
licensing revenues that are subject to withholding of income tax as mandated by
the foreign jurisdiction in which the revenues are earned.
Net Loss
Net loss
for the three months ended March 31, 2009 was $283,864 compared to $361,272 for
the three months ended March 31, 2008. The net loss for the three
months ended March 31, 2009 principally reflects the factors described
above.
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 its financial condition, changes in
financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity,
capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to
investors.
Liquidity
And Capital Resources
Andrea’s
principal sources of funds are and are expected to be gross cash flows from
operations. At March 31, 2009, we had cash of $1,681,220 compared
with $1,006,951 at December 31, 2008. The cash balance at March 31,
2009 is primarily a result of our cash provided from operations.
Working
capital balance at March 31, 2009 was $2,065,160 compared to a working capital
balance of $2,196,689 at December 31, 2008. The decrease in working
capital reflects an increase in total current assets of $45,247 coupled with an
increase in total current liabilities of $176,776. The increase in
total current assets reflects an increase in cash of $674,269, a decrease in
accounts receivable of $571,461, a decrease in inventory of $167,480, an
increase in short term customer deposit of $150,000 and a decrease in prepaid
expenses and other current assets of $40,081. The significant
decrease in accounts receivable is a result of the payment of license
revenues. The increase in short term customer deposit and short term
deferred revenue is related to a deposit for a product for one of our
customers. The increase in total current liabilities reflects an
increase in trade accounts payable of $8,443, an increase in short-term deferred
revenue of $150,000 and an increase of $18,333 in other current liabilities. The
increase in cash of $674,269 reflects $709,465 of net cash provided by operating
activities, and $35,196 of net cash used in investing activities.
The cash
provided by operating activities of $709,465, excluding non-cash charges for the
quarter ended March 31, 2009, is attributable to a $571,461 decrease in accounts
receivable, a $168,859 decrease in inventory, a $150,000 increase in short term
customer deposit, a $40,081 decrease in prepaid expenses and other current
assets, a $8,443 increase in accounts payable, a $150,000 increase in short-term
deferred revenue and a $18,333 increase in other current and long-term
liabilities. The changes in receivables, inventory, prepaid expenses
and accounts payable primarily reflect differences in the timing related to both
the payments for and the acquisition of inventory as well as for other services
in connection with ongoing efforts related to Andrea’s various product
lines.
The cash
used in investing activities of $35,196 reflects $21,619 in purchases of
property and equipment and $13,577 of payments related to patents and
trademarks. The increase in property and equipment reflects capital
expenditures associated with information technology purchases as well as molds
associated with our Andrea Anti-Noise Headset Products. The increase
in patents and trademarks reflects capital expenditures associated with our
intellectual property.
We plan to
continue to improve our cash flows in 2009 by aggressively pursuing additional
licensing opportunities related to our Andrea DSP Audio Software and increasing
the sales of our Andrea Anti-Noise Headset Products through the introduction of
a refreshed product line introduced in the latter part of 2008 as well as the
increased efforts we are putting into our sales and marketing
efforts. However, there can be no assurance that we will be able to
successfully execute the aforementioned plans. As of May 11, 2009,
Andrea has approximately $1,600,000 of cash deposits. We believe that
we have sufficient liquidity available to continue in operation through at least
March 2010. To the extent that we do not generate sufficient cash
flows from our operations in the next twelve months, additional financing might
be required. Although we have improved cash flows by reducing overall
expenses, if our revenues decline, these reductions may impede our ability to be
cash flow positive and our net income or loss may be disproportionately
affected. We have no commitment for additional financing and may
experience difficulty in obtaining additional financing on favorable terms, if
at all. Any financing we obtain may contain covenants that restrict
our freedom to operate our business or may have rights, preferences or
privileges senior to our common stock and may dilute our current shareholders’
ownership interest in Andrea. We cannot assure that demand will continue for any
of our products, including future products related to our Andrea DSP Microphone
and Audio Software technologies, or, that if such demand does exist, that we
will be able to obtain the necessary working capital to increase production and
provide marketing resources to meet such demand on favorable terms, or at
all.

4. CONTROLS
AND PROCEDURES
Andrea’s
management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial
officer, have evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s “disclosure controls
and procedures,” as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, (the “Exchange Act”). Based upon
their evaluation, the principal executive officer and principal financial
officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report,
Andrea’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective for the purpose of
ensuring that the information required to be disclosed in the reports that it
files or submits under the Exchange Act with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the “SEC”) (1) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported
within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and (2) is
accumulated and communicated to the Andrea’s management, including its principal
executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely
decisions regarding required disclosure.
A control
system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable,
not absolute, assurance that all control issues and instance of fraud, if any,
within a company have been detected. Andrea’s disclosure controls and
procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving its
objectives.
There have
been no changes in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting that
have materially affected, or are reasonable likely to materially affect the
Company’s internal controls over financial reporting during the period covered
by this Quarterly Report.
