NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 2009 AND 2008
(Unaudited)
 
NOTE 1 —BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND NATURE OF BUSINESS

Effective July 1, 2009, the Company adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 105-10, “Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.” ASC 105-10 establishes the FASB Accounting Standards CodificationTM (“Codification”) as the source of authoritative accounting principles recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities in the preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP for SEC registrants. All guidance contained in the Codification carries an equal level of authority. The Codification supersedes all existing non-SEC accounting and reporting standards. The FASB will now issue new standards in the form of Accounting Standards Updates (“ASUs”). The FASB will not consider ASUs as authoritative in their own right. ASUs will serve only to update the Codification, provide background information about the guidance and provide the bases for conclusions on the changes in the Codification. References made to FASB guidance have been updated for the Codification throughout this document.

Basis of Presentation

The unaudited financial statements have been prepared by Novint Technologies, Inc. (the “Company" or “Novint”), in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions for Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X as promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, these financial statements do not include all of the disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America for complete financial statements. These unaudited interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and the notes thereto included on Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2008. In the opinion of management, the unaudited interim financial statements furnished herein include all adjustments, all of which are of a normal recurring nature, necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim period presented. The results of the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2009.

Reclassifications

Certain prior year amounts were reclassified to conform to the September 30, 2009 presentation.

Nature of Business

Novint was originally incorporated in the State of New Mexico in April 1999. On February 26, 2002, the Company changed its state of incorporation to Delaware by merging with Novint Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation. This merger was accounted for as a reorganization of the Company. The Company currently is engaged in the development and sale of 3D haptics products and equipment. Haptics refers to one’s sense of touch.  The Company’s focus is in the consumer interactive computer gaming market, but the Company also does project work in other areas. The Company’s operations are based in New Mexico with sales of its haptics products primarily to consumers through the Company’s website at www.novint.com and retail outlets.

Going Concern and Management’s Plans

These financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has incurred recurring losses and at September 30, 2009, had an accumulated deficit of $34,684,588. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009, the Company sustained a net loss of $1,529,830 and $4,292,674, respectively. These factors, among others, indicate that the Company may be unable to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time. These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. The Company's continuation as a going concern is contingent upon its ability to obtain additional financing and to generate revenue and cash flow to meet its obligations on a timely basis.

Novint Technologies, Inc.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 2009 AND 2008
(Unaudited)
 
The Company believes there are several factors in continuing as a going concern. The Company has dramatically reduced operating expenses and staff during the nine months in 2009 and will continue do so in areas deemed non-essential during 2009 while maintaining the resources to continue to sell its hardware and software products. Additionally, in the immediate timeframe, the Company has put more emphasis on haptics development projects. These projects have historically generated revenues and expanded the intellectual property portfolio. Next, the Company is anticipating the release of new top tier games in the second half of 2009, some of which have been released, which should generate additional product sales.  Lastly, the Company will continue to seek and raise additional funding through debt or equity financing during the next twelve months.

NOTE 2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Use of Estimates

In preparing financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates include the fair value of the Company’s common stock and the fair value of options and warrants to purchase common stock, allowances for doubtful accounts, inventory valuation, return and warranty reserves, accounting for income taxes and uncertainty in income taxes and depreciation and amortization.

Software Development Costs

The Company accounts for its software development costs in accordance with FASB ASC 985.20, Software-Costs of Computer Software to be Sold, Leased, or Otherwise Marketed. This codification requires that, once technological feasibility of a developing product has been established, all subsequent costs incurred in developing that product to a commercially acceptable level be capitalized and amortized ratably over the estimated life of the product, which is generally 5 years. The Company has capitalized software development costs in connection with its haptics technology beginning in 2000. Amortization is computed on the straight-line basis over the estimated life (5 years) of the haptics technology. As of September 30, 2009, the Company’s capitalized software development costs totaled $472,299 (net of $478,754 of accumulated amortization)  The estimated annual amortization expense related to the capitalized software development cost is approximately $155,000 per year.  Amortization expense related to software development costs for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008 totaled $42,771 and $128,960, and $40,170 and $117,153, respectively.

The Company follows FASB ASC 350.40, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other-Internal-Use Software, which requires capitalization of certain costs incurred during the development of internal use software. Through September 30, 2009, capitalizable costs incurred have not been significant for any development projects.

Intangible Assets

Intangible assets consist of licensing agreements of $1,245,543 and patents of $50,917, and are carried at cost less accumulated amortization of $883,218 at September 30, 2009.  Amortization is computed using the straight-line method over the economic life of the assets, which range between 3 and 20 years. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, the Company recognized amortization expense of approximately $92,445 and $277,336, and $94,778 and $184,966, respectively, related to intangible assets.

Annual amortization of intangible assets remaining at September 30, 2009, is as follows:
 
For the twelve months ending September 30,
     
     2010
  $ 255,708

In August 2008, the Company entered into a licensing agreement for several games, with a guaranteed minimum royalty of $100,000.  In March 2009, the Company signed an amendment to reduce the minimum royalty to $15,000 for a total of two games.  The Company has accrued for the $15,000 as of December 31, 2008.  This amount was paid in March 2009.

The Company follows the FASB ASC 350.30, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other-General Intangibles Other than Goodwill. FASB ASC 350.30 requires intangible assets to be tested for impairment. The Company performs a periodic review of its identified intangible assets to determine if facts and circumstances exist which indicate that the useful life is shorter than originally estimated or that the carrying amount of assets may not be recoverable. If such facts and circumstances exist, the Company assesses the recoverability of identified intangible assets by comparing the projected undiscounted net cash flows associated with the related asset or group of assets over the remaining lives against the respective carrying amounts. Impairment, if any, is based on the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value of those assets. After an impairment loss is recognized, the adjusted carrying amount shall be its new accounting basis. No impairment loss was recorded during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009 or 2008.

Revenue and Cost Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue from the sale of software products under the FASB ASC 985.605, Software-Software Revenue Recognition, which generally requires that revenue recognized from software arrangements be allocated to each element of the arrangement based on the relative vendor specific objective evidence of fair values of the elements, such as software products, upgrades, enhancements, post contract customer support, installation or training. Under FASB ASC 985.605, if the determination of vendor specific objective evidence of fair value for each element of the arrangement does not exist, all revenue from the arrangement is deferred until such time that evidence does exist or until all elements of the arrangement are delivered.

The Company’s revenue recognition policy is as follows:

Project revenue consists of programming services provided to unrelated parties under fixed-price contracts. Revenues from fixed price programming contracts are recognized in accordance with FASB ASC 605.35, Revenue Recognition-Construction-Type and Production-Type Contracts, using the percentage-of-completion method, measured by the percentage of costs incurred to date compared with the total estimated costs for each contract. The Company accounts for these measurements in the accompanying balance sheets under costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings on contracts, and billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings on contracts. Provisions for estimated losses on uncompleted contracts are made and recorded in the period in which the loss is identified.  As of September 30, 2009 the Company had $8,297 in costs and earnings in excess of billings which is included in prepaid expenses and other current assets on the accompanying balance sheet.  As of December 31, 2008 the Company did not have any costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings on contracts or any billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings on contracts.
 
For project revenue that is not under fixed price programming contracts, the Company recognizes revenues as the services are completed.
  
Revenue from product sales relates to the sale of the Falcon haptics interface, which is a human-computer user interface (the “Falcon”) and related accessories. The Falcon allows the user to experience the sense of touch when using a computer, while holding its interchangeable handle. The Falcons are manufactured by an unrelated party. Revenue from product sales is recognized when the products are shipped to the customer and the Company has earned the right to receive and retain reasonable assured payments for the products sold and delivered. Consequently, if all these revenue from product sales requirements are not met, such sales will be recorded as deferred revenue until such time as all revenue recognition requirements are met.

As of September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, the Company had recorded $29,828 and 29,662, respectively, of deferred revenue, which represents fees received for product and project revenues that have not met all revenue recognition requirements.

FASB ASC 605.45, Revenue Recognition-Principal Agent Considerations, require amounts billed to a customer in a sales transaction related to shipping and handling, if any, to be classified and accounted for as revenues earned for the goods provided whereas shipping and handling costs incurred by a company are required to be classified as cost of sales. The Company’s costs associated with shipping product items to the Company’s customers are included in the Company’s Cost of Goods Sold, which for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008 approximated $59,358 and $89,086, and $2,531 and $27,436, respectively.

Arrangements made with certain customers, including slotting fees and co-operative advertising, are accounted for in accordance with FASB ASC 605.50, Revenue Recognition-Customer Payments and Incentives. These incentives are recognized as a reduction in revenue or as a selling, general, and administrative expense, respectively, when payment is made to a customer (or at the time the Company has incurred the obligation, if earlier) unless the Company receives a benefit over a period of time and the Company meets certain other criteria, such as retailer performance, recoverability and enforceability, in which case the incentive is recorded as an asset and is amortized as a reduction of revenue over the term of the arrangement.

FASB ASC 605.45, Revenue Recognition-Principal Agent Considerations, requires reimbursements received for out-of-pocket expenses incurred while providing services to be characterized in the statements of operations as revenue. The Company’s out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with their project revenues are recognized in revenues based on a computed overhead rate that is included in their project labor costs to derive a project price.

In accordance with FASB ASC 605.45, Revenue Recognition-Principal Agent Considerations, the Company recognizes its product sales on a gross basis. The Company is responsible for fulfillment, including the acceptability of the product ordered. The Company has risks and rewards of ownership such as the risk of loss for collection, delivery or returns. Title passes to the customer upon receipt of the product by the customer. In accordance with the Company’s agreement with its customer, further obligation is limited to the terms defined in its warranty.

The Company’s customers are provided a one (1) year limited warranty on the Falcon. This warranty guarantees that the products shall be free from defects in material and workmanship. Additionally, the Company offers its customers of the Falcon a 30 day money back guarantee. The Company continually evaluates its reserve accounts for both the limited warranty and 30 day money back guarantee based on its historical activities. As of September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, the Company has accrued $15,000 and $17,000, respectively, as warranty reserve.

Loss per Common Share

FASB ASC 260, Earnings Per Share, provides for the calculation of “Basic” and “Diluted” earnings per share. Basic earnings per share includes no dilution and is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. All potentially dilutive securities have been excluded from the computations since they would be antidilutive. However, these dilutive securities could potentially dilute earnings per share in the future. As of September 30, 2009 and 2008, the Company had a total of 16,481,809 and 12,736,867 in potentially dilutive securities, respectively.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company adopted FASB ASC 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation. FASB ASC 718 requires companies to measure and recognize the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant-date fair value. Share-based compensation recognized under the modified-prospective transition method of FASB ASC 718 includes share-based compensation based on the grant-date fair value for all share-based payments granted prior to and not yet vested as of January 1, 2006 and share-based compensation based on the grant-date fair-value determined in accordance with FASB ASC 718 for all share-based payments granted after January 1, 2006.

The Company recognized $10,969 and $153,647, and $115,927 and $353,033 in employee share-based compensation expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively. The fair value of the stock options was estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model.   In calculating the fair value of options for stock based compensation for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009, the following assumptions were used: closing price of the common stock at the date of grant, risk-free rates ranging from 4.00% to 5.25%, volatility of the options ranging from 73% to 157%, estimated lives of 3 to 10 years and exercise prices ranging from $0.20 to $1.06 per share.  In calculating the fair value of options for stock based compensation for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008, the following assumptions were used: closing price of the common stock at the date of grant, risk-free rates ranging from 4.00% to 5.25%, volatility of the options ranging from 73% to 157%, estimated lives of 3 to 10 years and exercise prices ranging from $0.66 to $1.20 per share.
  
Stock options and warrants issued to consultants and other non-employees as compensation for services provided to the Company are accounted for based on the fair value of the services provided or the estimated fair market value of the option or warrant, whichever is more reliably measurable in accordance with FASB ASC 505.50, Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees. The related expense is recognized over the period the services are provided. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, stock options and warrants issued to consultants and other non-employees as compensation for services that vested during those periods totaled $286,472 and $292,993, and $99,219 and $381,219, respectively.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 165, “Subsequent Events,” codified in FASB ASC Topic 855-10-05, which provides guidance to establish general standards of accounting for and disclosures of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. SFAS No. 165 also requires entities to disclose the date through which subsequent events were evaluated as well as the rationale for why that date was selected. SFAS No. 165 is effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2009, and accordingly, the Company adopted this pronouncement during the second quarter of 2009. SFAS No. 165 requires that public entities evaluate subsequent events through the date that the financial statements are issued. The Group has evaluated subsequent events through November 23, 2009.

In March 2008, the Company closed on a $2,025,000 private placement of debt securities under Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933 pursuant to the terms of a subscription agreement among the Company and the subscribers’ signatory thereto (the "Subscription Agreement"). From April 2008 through September 2008, the Company closed an additional $3,210,097 for an aggregate Subscription Agreement amount of $5,235,097.  Each Subscriber acquired an unsecured convertible note in the principal amount invested and a warrant to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock with an exercise price of $1.00 per share.  In each case, the number of shares of common stock underlying the warrant equals the principal amount of the unsecured convertible note. Each warrant is exercisable for a term of five (5) years.  The unsecured convertible notes have a three (3) year maturity, require payment of principal and interest in full on the maturity date, and accrue interest at a rate of seven percent (7%) beginning on the first anniversary of their respective dates of issuance. At the option of the holder, principal outstanding under a note may be converted into common stock at the conversion rate then in effect, initially $1.00 per share. Upon conversion, the holder will receive common stock at the conversion price of $1.00 per share and additional warrants to purchase shares of common stock at an exercise price of $1.50 per share.  The number of shares of common stock underlying the additional warrants shall equal one-half (1/2) the principal and interest amounts converted.  The additional warrants shall be exercisable for a term of five (5) years.  Certain existing shareholders of the Company are entitled to purchase notes and warrants under the terms of the Subscription Agreement and the Company was required to create a second offering of these notes and warrants. The Company has recorded $459,073 as deferred financing costs associated with the closing that occurred on September 9, 2008. This amount represents $197,049 for legal expenses associated with the private placement, $149,403 paid to an investment banking company and $112,621 for the value of warrants to purchase 143,403 shares of the Company’s common stock at $1.00 per share for 5 years owed to the same investment banking company. These amounts are being amortized to interest expense over the term of the notes.
  
The Company has determined the convertible debenture contains a beneficial conversion feature and qualifies for treatment under FASB ASC 470.20, Debt with Conversion and Other Options. The estimated fair value of the detachable warrants of $4,462,663 has been determined using Black-Scholes option pricing model using the following assumptions: stock price volatility of 124% to 125%, risk free interest rate of 3.77%; dividend yield of 0% and 3 year term. The face amount of the convertible debenture of $5,235,097 was proportionately allocated to the debenture and the warrants in the amount of $2,849,425 and $2,385,672, respectively. The convertible debentures’ proportionate allocated value of $2,849,425 was then further allocated between the debenture and the beneficial conversion feature, and the entire remaining value of $2,849,425 was allocated to the beneficial conversion feature. The beneficial conversion feature of $2,849,425 was allocated to the stock due upon conversion of $2,058,623 and the warrants due upon conversion of $790,802.  In accordance with FASB ASC 470.20, the beneficial conversion feature attributed to the warrants due upon conversion of $790,802 is recorded as a debt discount and will not be amortized until the notes are converted at which time the entire discount will be expensed.  The combined total value of the initial warrant and beneficial conversion feature attributed to the stock of $4,444,295 has been accounted for as a debt discount that is being amortized and treated as interest expense over the term of the convertible debenture under the effective interest method.  For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, the Company’s debt discount amortization expense totaled $357,128 and $1,086,414, and $431,264, and $867,087, respectively.  The remaining unamortized debt discount at September 30, 2009 totaled $3,054,682.

ITEM 2.
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 
Statements included in this management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations, and in future filings by the Company with the SEC, in the Company’s press releases and in oral statements made with the approval of an authorized executive officer that are not historical or current facts are “forward-looking statements” and are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from historical earnings and those presently anticipated or projected. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made. The following important factors, among others, in some cases have affected and in the future could affect the Company’s actual results and could cause the Company’s actual financial performance to differ materially from that expressed in any forward-looking statement: (i) the extremely competitive conditions that currently exist in the market for companies similar to the Company and (ii) lack of resources to maintain the Company’s good standing status and requisite filings with the SEC. The foregoing list should not be construed as exhaustive, and the Company disclaims any obligation subsequently to revise any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of such statements or to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events. The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and their explanatory notes included as part of this report.

OVERVIEW

We were initially incorporated in the State of New Mexico as Novint Technologies, Inc. in April 1999. On February 26, 2002, we changed our state of incorporation to Delaware by merging into Novint Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation. We have no subsidiaries and operate our business under Novint Technologies, Inc.  We are a haptics technology company (haptics refers to your sense of touch). We develop, market, and sell applications and technologies that allow people to use their sense of touch to interact with computers.

We have derived revenues from 3D touch hardware sales, 3D touch software sales, and the development of professional applications for our customers. We launched our Falcon product in June 2007, and are selling it primarily on our on-line store. We launched an on-line game store in November 2007. We also have completed a number of professional application contracts with customers who desire custom developed software.

Novint focuses many of its efforts to exploit opportunities in the consumer console and PC interactive games market, and is also looking to expand its efforts in other areas of computer touch in funded projects. Using our haptics technology, games and applications will have the crucial missing “third sense”, touch, to human computer interaction. Users will be able to directly and intuitively feel the shape, texture, and physical properties of virtual objects using our computer touch software.  Our haptic technology and related hardware for consumers is the primary focus of our operations, but we will continue to develop our professional applications.  We will devote much of our resources to further developing the video game market and seeking new business relationships with video game developers and publishers and hardware manufacturers.  We will also continue to perform project work across a variety of professional applications.
 
We began selling our haptic product, the Novint Falcon, in June 2007 through our website at www.novint.com.  We currently are selling one haptic hardware product, which is a haptic game controller device called the Novint Falcon marketed in a bundled package that includes several games. In late 2007, we launched an on-line game store where consumers can purchase and download a variety of game titles.  In 2008, we launched a pistol grip attachment for the Falcon.  Although our sales of the Novint Falcon and games since product launch have been limited, sales of the Novint Falcon, the pistol grip, and games have begun to increase resulting from the release of new software and games in 2009. One of the most significant drivers of revenue for Novint will be games and content. This is true not only in the revenue we receive from the games themselves, but largely because this is a criterion we see many of our customers desiring in order to justify the Falcon hardware purchase. For example, if the Novint Falcon has many games available to play on it, a customer can purchase a single piece of hardware and then over time purchase multiple games that give a unique gaming experience, making the initial hardware purchase valuable over a larger amount of time and across a larger number of games. In 2008, we entered into licensing agreements with Valve Software and Electronic Arts among others. Support for the Orange Box, Counter Strike: Source, Battlefield 2, and Left 4 Dead were recently released.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

Effective July 1, 2009, the Company adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 105-10, “Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.” ASC 105-10 establishes the FASB Accounting Standards CodificationTM (“Codification”) as the source of authoritative accounting principles recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities in the preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP for SEC registrants. All guidance contained in the Codification carries an equal level of authority. The Codification supersedes all existing non-SEC accounting and reporting standards. The FASB will now issue new standards in the form of Accounting Standards Updates (“ASUs”). The FASB will not consider ASUs as authoritative in their own right. ASUs will serve only to update the Codification, provide background information about the guidance and provide the bases for conclusions on the changes in the Codification. References made to FASB guidance have been updated for the Codification throughout this document.

High-quality financial statements require rigorous application of accounting policies. Our policies are discussed in our financial statements for the quarter ended September 30, 2009 and are considered by management to be critical for an understanding of our financial statements because their application places the most significant demands on management’s judgment, with financial reporting results relying on estimation about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. We review the accounting policies we use in reporting our financial results on a regular basis. As part of such review, we assess how changes in our business processes and products may affect how we account for transactions. We have not changed our critical accounting policies or practices during 2009. New accounting policies and practices were implemented in 2008 and in 2009 as necessary based on the launch of our haptics product sales in June 2007.

REVENUE AND COST RECOGNITION — We recognize revenue from the sale of software products under FASB ASC 985.605, Software-Software Revenue Recognition, which generally requires that revenue recognized from software arrangements be allocated to each element of the arrangement based on the relative vendor specific objective evidence of fair values of the elements, such as software products, upgrades, enhancements, post contract customer support, installation, or training. Under FASB ASC 985.605, if the determination of vendor specific objective evidence of fair value for each element of the arrangement does not exist, all revenue from the arrangement is deferred until such time that evidence does exist or until all elements of the arrangement are delivered.

FASB ASC 985.605 clarified what constitutes vendor specific objective evidence of fair value and introduced the concept of the “residual method” for allocating revenue to elements in a multiple element arrangement.

Our revenue recognition policy is as follows:

Project revenue consists of programming services provided to unrelated parties under fixed-price contracts. Revenues from fixed price programming contracts are recognized in accordance with FASB ASC 605.35, Revenue Recognition-Construction-Type and Production-Type Contracts, using the percentage-of-completion method, measured by the percentage of costs incurred to date compared with the total estimated costs for each contract. The Company accounts for these measurements in the accompanying balance sheets under costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings on contracts, and billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings on contracts. Provisions for estimated losses on uncompleted contracts are made and recorded in the period in which the loss is identified.

For project revenue that is not under fixed price programming contracts, the Company recognizes revenues as the services are completed.

Revenue from product sales relates to the sale of the Falcon haptics interface, which is a human-computer user interface (the “Falcon”) and related accessories. The Falcon allows the user to experience the sense of touch when using a computer while holding its interchangeable handle. The Falcons are manufactured by an unrelated party. Revenue from the product sales is recognized when the products are shipped to the customer and the Company has earned the right to receive and retain reasonable assured payments for the products sold and delivered. Consequently, if all these revenue from product sales requirements are not met, such sales will be recorded as deferred revenue until such time as all revenue recognition requirements are met.

FASB ASC 605.45, Revenue Recognition-Principal Agent Considerations, require amounts billed to a customer in a sales transaction related to shipping and handling, if any, to be classified and accounted for as revenues earned for the goods provided whereas shipping and handling costs incurred by a company are required to be classified as cost of sales.
 
3


Arrangements made with certain customers, including slotting fees and co-operative advertising, are accounted for in accordance with FASB ASC 605.45. These incentives are recognized as a reduction in revenue or as a selling, general, and administrative expense, respectively, when payment is made to a customer (or at the time the Company has incurred the obligation, if earlier) unless the Company receives a benefit over a period of time and the Company meets certain other criteria, such as retailer performance, recoverability, and enforceability, in which case the incentive is recorded as an asset and is amortized as a reduction of revenue over the term of the arrangement.

FASB ASC 605.45, requires reimbursements received for out-of-pocket expenses incurred while providing services to be characterized in the statements of operations as revenue. The Company’s out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with their project revenues are recognized in revenues based on a computed overhead rate that is included in their project labor costs to derive a project price.

FASB ASC 605.45, the Company recognizes its product sales on a gross basis. The Company is responsible for fulfillment, including the acceptability of the product ordered. The Company has risks and rewards of ownership such as the risk of loss for collection, delivery, or returns. Title passes to the customer upon receipt of the product by the customer. In accordance with the Company’s agreement with its customer, further obligation is limited to the terms defined in its warranty.

The Company’s customers are provided a one (1) year limited warranty on the Falcon. This warranty guarantees that the products shall be free from defects in material and workmanship. Additionally, the Company offers its customers of the Falcon a 30 day money back guarantee. The Company continually evaluates its reserve accounts for both the limited warranty and 30 day money back guarantee based on its historical activities.

SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT COSTS — We account for our software development costs in accordance with FASB ASC 985.20, Software-Costs of Computer Software to be Sold, Leased, or Otherwise Marketed. This statement requires that, once technological feasibility of a developing product has been established, all subsequent costs incurred in developing that product to a commercially acceptable level be capitalized and amortized ratably over the estimated life of the product, which is 5 years. We have capitalized software development costs in connection with our haptic software beginning in 2000. Amortization is computed on the straight-line basis over the estimated life (5 years) of the haptics technology.

The Company follows ASC 350.40, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other-Internal-Use Software, which requires capitalization of certain costs incurred during the development of internal use software.

STOCK BASED COMPENSATION – We account for stock based compensation in accordance with SFAS FASB ASC 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation, which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all share-based payment awards made to employees and directors, including employee stock options and employee stock purchases, related to a Employee Stock Purchase Plan based on the estimated fair values.  We have used stock option awards in the past and continue to use them as a means of rewarding our employees and directors for their continued commitment and efforts in helping us execute our overall business plans.

Stock options and warrants issued to consultants and other non-employees as compensation for services provided to the Company are accounted for based on the fair value of the services provided or the estimated fair market value of the option or warrant, whichever is more reliably measurable in accordance with FASB ASC 505.50, Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees. The related expense is recognized over the period the services are provided.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

The Company has adopted all recently issued accounting pronouncements. The adoption of the accounting pronouncements, including those not yet effective is not anticipated to have a material effect on the financial position or results of operations of the Company.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2009 COMPARED TO THE THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2008.

REVENUES. During the three months ended September 30, 2009, we had revenues of $355,169 as compared to revenues of $76,149 during the three months ended September 30, 2008, an increase of approximately 366%. During the three months ended September 30, 2009, our revenues were derived from the development of professional applications for customers totaling $241,953 and the sale of our haptics technology products totaling $113,216.  Our sales of our haptics technology products increased 58% from 2008, while our revenues from the development of professional applications increased 5,277% as we continued to place emphasis on our professional applications during the quarter.  We will continue to provide development of professional applications, and in 2009 we expect to grow this part of our business similarly to how we have in the past.  Much of our focus will remain on the video game business, but we expect to place more emphasis on professional applications in our Advanced Products Group than we had from 2006 to 2008.

COST OF GOODS SOLD AND GROSS PROFIT (LOSS). Cost of goods sold, which consists of the cost of the haptics technology products sold, materials purchased for resale to customers, the direct labor incurred for delivering on projects, warehousing and freight costs, and inventory write-downs were $338,307 for the three months ended September 30, 2009, compared to $126,086 for the three months ended September 30, 2008.  Our overall gross profit percentage was approximately 5% for the three months ended September 30, 2009, compared to a gross loss percentage of (66)% for the three months ended September 30, 2008.  For the three months ended September 30, 2009, our gross profit from our development of professional applications approximated 40%, an increase from a gross profit of 33% for the third quarter of 2008, due to securing more profitable contracts in the quarter. Our gross loss experienced from the sale of our haptics technology product in the third quarter of 2009 was (71)%, a slight improvement from 2008 when the gross loss percentage was (72)%.  Our gross loss experienced from the sales of our haptics technology product continues to be impacted by the reorganization of our distribution systems to drive cost effectiveness, as well as some promotional pricing that we had in the quarter. In the three months ended September 30, 2009, the Company incurred one-time charges of approximately $32,000 relocating the majority of the inventory to a new warehouse location in New Mexico.  Additionally, there was an inventory write-down of approximately $28,500 related to costs for sales of games. By the end of September, we had completed the reorganization of our distribution systems, and will be able to operate at a lower cost than in the past.   Warehousing costs for the three months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008 were $13,456 and $41,676, respectively.

GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES. General and administrative expenses totaled $703,020 for the three months ended September 30, 2009, compared to $1,172,334 for the three months ended September 30, 2008, a decrease of $469,314 or 40%.  In 2009, we are reorganizing our infrastructure to significantly reduce our costs, while still continuing to market our product. The decrease in general and administrative expenses compared to the prior year was primarily related to this reorganization.  Business and professional fees increased approximately $188,000 to assist with operational issues and sales and marketing, while insurance expense decreased $55,000, royalty expense increased approximately $1,000, rent decreased $33,000, and payroll and other overhead expenses decreased approximately $570,000 largely due to a reduction in the number of our employees.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2009, our revenues were derived from the development of professional applications for customers totaling $477,378 and the sale of our haptics technology products totaling $223,464.  Our sales of our haptics technology products increased 23% from 2008, while our revenues from the development of professional applications increased 850% as we placed emphasis on our professional applications during 2009 while we were restructuring our distribution channels for the haptics product.  We will continue to provide development of professional applications, and in 2009 we expect to grow this part of our business similarly to how we have in the past.  Much of our focus will remain on the video game business, but we expect to place more emphasis on professional applications in our Advanced Products Group than we had from 2006 to 2008.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

As of September 30, 2009, we had a total cash balance of $128,870.  Our cash flow from operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 resulted in a deficit of $486,563 compared with a deficit of $6,854,742 in the same period of the prior year.  This decrease in the deficit from operating activities of approximately $6,368,179 was a result of a reduction in operating losses and fewer investments in prepaid expenses and inventory.  Our cash flow from investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 resulted in a deficit of $25,788 compared with a deficit of $260,834 in the same period of the prior year, representing less investment in fixed assets and investments in games through both licensing and internal development. Our cash flow from financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 resulted in a surplus of $585,906 from the issuance of notes payable compared to a surplus of $4,987,096 in the same period of the prior year primarily from the net proceeds from convertible notes payable.  Overall, our cash increased by $73,555 during the nine months ended September 30, 2009.
          
The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has incurred recurring losses and at September 30, 2009, had an accumulated deficit of $34,684,588. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009, the Company sustained a net loss of $1,529,830 and $4,292,674, respectively. These factors, among others, indicate that the Company may be unable to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time. These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. The Company's continuation as a going concern is contingent upon its ability to obtain additional financing and to generate revenue and cash flow to meet its obligations on a timely basis.

The Company believes there are several factors in continuing as a going concern. The Company has dramatically reduced operating expenses and staff during the nine months in 2009 and will continue do so in areas deemed non-essential during 2009 while maintaining the resources to continue to sell its hardware and software products. Additionally, in the immediate timeframe, the Company has put more emphasis on haptics development projects. These projects have historically generated revenues and expanded the intellectual property portfolio. Next, the Company is anticipating the release of new top tier games in the second half of 2009, which should generate additional product sales.  Lastly, the Company will continue to seek and raise additional funding through debt or equity financing during the next twelve months.
