Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

1.	Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the results of the interim periods presented. The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Authentidate Holding Corp. (AHC) and its subsidiaries and joint venture (collectively, the “company”). All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. The results of operations for the period ended March 31, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the annual consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the company’s Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010 and the corresponding Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

As discussed more fully in Note 7 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, on April 1, 2011 the company announced that it had completed the sale of all the capital stock of its wholly-owned German subsidiary, Authentidate International AG, to Exceet Group AG. Accordingly, the results of operations, cash flows, assets and liabilities of the German subsidiary have been presented as discontinued operations and assets and liabilities of discontinued operations in the condensed consolidated financial statements for all periods presented.

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are presented on a going concern basis which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. For a number of years the company has experienced net losses and negative cash flow from operating activities as we focused on developing new products and services, refining our business strategies, expanding our addressable markets and repositioning the company for future growth. During this period our primary sources of funds have been the issuance of equity and the incurrence of third party debt. For the three and nine months ended March 31, 2011, the company incurred a net loss of $1,621,000 and $10,493,000, respectively, including a loss related to discontinued operations for the nine month period of $5,647,000. As of March 31, 2011, cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities were $2,513,000, the company had working capital for continuing operations of $5,626,000, an accumulated deficit of $166,203,000 and total shareholders’ equity of $6,161,000. These conditions indicate that the company may be unable to continue as a going concern. Based on our business plan, resources available at March 31, 2011 and net proceeds from the sale of our German subsidiary, management of the company believes that we have sufficient working capital to fund our operations for the next twelve months. However, if the company’s cash flows from operations are less than expected, the company may need to downsize operations, incur debt or raise additional capital. There can be no assurance, however, that the company will be successful in raising additional capital or securing financing when needed or on terms satisfactory to the company.

2.	Loss Per Share

The following table sets forth the calculation of basic and diluted loss per share for the periods presented (in thousands, except per share data):


	Three Months Ended March 31,						Nine Months Ended March 31,
	2011			2010			2011			2010

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

All potential common shares were excluded from the calculation of net loss per share for the periods presented because their impact is antidilutive. At March 31, 2011, employee and non-executive director options (4,368,000), warrants (7,070,000), performance based consultant options (375,000), Series C preferred stock (5,000,000) and Series B preferred stock (500,000) were outstanding. At March 31, 2010, employee and non-executive director options (4,590,000), warrants (720,000), performance based consultant options (375,000) and Series B preferred stock (500,000) were outstanding.

3.	Share-Based Compensation

Share-based compensation by category is as follows (in thousands):


	Three Months Ended March 31,				Nine Months Ended March 31,
	2011		2010		2011		2010
SG&A	$	25	$	81	$	75	$	168
Product development		4		—		13		23
Cost of revenues		3		—		8		9

Share-based compensation expense	$	32	$	81	$	96	$	200

The company computed the estimated fair values of all share-based compensation using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and the assumptions set forth in the following table. The company based its estimate of the life of these options on historical averages over the past five years and estimates of expected future behavior. The expected volatility was based on the company’s historical stock volatility. The assumptions used in the company’s Black-Scholes calculations for fiscal 2011 and 2010 are as follows:


	Risk Free Interest Rate			Dividend Yield			Volatility Factor			Weighted Average Expected Option Life (Months)
Fiscal year 2011		1.8	%		0	%		107	%		48
Fiscal year 2010		2.5	%		0	%		103	%		48

The Black-Scholes option-pricing model requires the input of highly subjective assumptions. Because the company’s employee stock options have characteristics significantly different from those of traded options, and because changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate, in management’s opinion, the existing models may not provide a reliable single measure of the fair value of share-based compensation for employee stock options. Management will continue to assess the assumptions and methodologies used to calculate estimated fair value of share-based compensation as circumstances change and additional data becomes available over time, which may result in changes to these assumptions and methodologies. Such changes could materially impact the company’s fair value determination.

Stock option activity under the Employees and Non-Executive Directors Stock Option Plans (the “Plans”) for the period ended March 31, 2011 is as follows (in thousands, except per share and average life data):


Employees Plan	Number of Options			Weighted Average Exercise Price		Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Life (Years)		Aggregate Intrinsic Value
Outstanding, June 30, 2010		3,781		$	3.10		6.49
Granted		493			0.45
Expired/forfeited		(366	)		3.80

Outstanding, March 31, 2011		3,908		$	2.70		6.43	$	29

Exercisable at March 31, 2011		2,290		$	3.79		4.61	$	20

Expected to vest at March 31, 2011		1,270		$	1.15		9.00	$	67


Non-Executive Director Plan	Number of Options			Weighted Average Exercise Price		Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Life (Years)		Aggregate Intrinsic Value
Outstanding, June 30, 2010		493		$	3.06		4.76
Granted		50			0.63
Expired		(83	)		5.98

Outstanding, March 31, 2011		460		$	2.27		5.30	$	1

Non-executive director options are granted at market price and vest on the grant date.

As of March 31, 2011, there was approximately $732,000 of total unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested share-based compensation arrangements granted under the Plans. Approximately $131,000 of this expense is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 16 months. The remaining expense will be recognized if certain vesting conditions are met during the next 18 months.

There were no options exercised for the nine month period ended March 31, 2011. The total intrinsic value of options exercised was $3,600 for the nine months ended March 31, 2010. The weighted average grant date fair value of options granted during the nine month periods ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 was approximately $0.34 and $0.77, respectively. These values were calculated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model.

The total fair value of options vested was $133,000 and $195,000 for the nine month periods ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

During fiscal 2006 the company issued 375,000 stock options to an independent consultant, exercisable at $3.25 per share. These options do not vest until the consultant realizes at least $1.0 million in sales of the company’s products; therefore no expense has been recorded as no sales have been realized through March 31, 2011. These options are not included in the disclosures above. These options expire at the later of seven years from the grant date or five years from the vesting date.

Effective January 17, 2007, the Board of Directors amended the terms of existing stock options previously granted to the company’s current employees whereby such options expire ten years from the original grant date. The incremental share-based compensation expense related to this change was amortized as the related options vested through June 30, 2010.

On January 17, 2007, the shareholders approved several amendments to the 2001 Non-Executive Director Stock Option Plan whereby non-executive director stock options expire ten years from the original date of grant, non-executive directors will have up to two years to exercise their options after leaving the board and may elect to receive up to 50% of their cash director compensation in restricted common stock of the company issued at fair value in accordance with the terms of the Plan. On May 20, 2009, the shareholders approved an amendment to increase this percentage to 100%. During the nine months ended March 31, 2011, the company issued 98,810 shares of restricted common stock (valued at approximately $53,500) to certain non-executive directors in

Authentidate Holding Corp. and Subsidiaries

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

connection with this program. In April 2011, the company issued 37,709 shares of restricted common stock (valued at approximately $22,625) to such directors under the program.

5.	Marketable Securities

At March 31, 2011 our marketable securities consisted primarily of money market investments. We classify our investments as “available for sale” and they have been recorded at cost which approximates fair market value due to their variable interest rates. As a result, we have had no cumulative gross unrealized holding gains (losses) or gross realized gains (losses) from such investments through March 31, 2011. All income generated from these investments is recorded as interest income.

6.	Note Receivable and Assets Held for Sale

In June 2007, the company completed the sale of its Document Management Solutions and Systems Integration businesses, to Astria Solutions Group, LLC (“Astria”). Under the terms of the definitive Asset Purchase Agreement, Astria issued to the company a $2,000,000 seven-year note bearing interest at a rate of 8.5% (“Note”). The reported gain on this transaction did not include any value for the Note. The Note was secured by the assets of the acquired businesses and was subordinated to the interests of the senior creditor and mezzanine lender to Astria. The Note provided for monthly interest payments through May 2010, principal (based on a 15-year amortization) and interest payments thereafter through April 2014 and a final payment of the balance in May 2014. Based on the subordination, the extended collection period and other factors, the company had no reasonable basis for estimating the degree of collectibility of the Note and elected to recognize, in accordance with the accounting guidance, the additional gain, if any, on the sale of the businesses as management determined that the debtor’s cash flows from operations were sufficient to repay the debt. In connection with the sale, Astria also entered into a seven-year lease for a portion of the building owned by the company in Schenectady, New York where the acquired businesses are located. Under the terms of the lease, Astria elected to pay all taxes and operating costs for the land and building and rent and additional rent of approximately $186,000 per year for the term of lease.

On July 14, 2010, the company completed the sale of certain non-core assets, including the company’s land and building in Schenectady, New York to Star Advisors, LLC (“Star”), acting on behalf of Astria, for a total purchase price of approximately $2.4 million. Under the purchase agreement, the company also disposed of the $2.0 million Note; and the balance of deferred receivables related to the businesses sold to Astria. At June 30, 2010, the land and building was classified in the company’s financial statements as assets held for sale and the Note and deferred receivables were fully reserved and had net carrying values of zero. Net proceeds from the sale were approximately $2.35 million, after the payment of expenses and brokerage commissions related to the transaction. The company recorded a gain on the sale of such assets of approximately $351,000 in the quarter ended September 30, 2010.

7.	Discontinued Operations and Assets and Liabilities of Discontinued Operations

On April 1, 2011, the company completed the sale of all of the capital stock of its wholly-owned German subsidiary, Authentidate International AG, to Exceet Group AG, a Swiss corporation. Under the terms of the Share Purchase Agreement dated as of March 9, 2011, the company sold and transferred all of the capital stock of the subsidiary for a purchase price of $1,433,000. Exceet Group also agreed to acquire certain of the company’s claims regarding its interest in the subsidiary for €70,000 ($97,300) and to assume net liabilities related to the business of the subsidiary of approximately $716,000. In accordance with the Share Purchase Agreement, the company and Authentidate International also entered into two license agreements relating to certain of their intellectual property rights. Pursuant to a Trademark License Agreement, the company granted Authentidate International a license to use the “Authentidate” trademark in the field of use defined in the Trademark License Agreement and only in the territory consisting of the European Economic Area and a limited number of other countries. In addition, pursuant to a separate Intellectual Property License Agreement, Authentidate International granted the company a license to utilize patent, software and certain other intellectual property rights. Further, in connection with the foregoing, the company agreed to provide the Chief Executive Officer of Authentidate

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

International a bonus payment equal to 5% of the net sale price received by the company in consideration of his efforts with respect to the transaction. In connection with the sale of the subsidiary, the company recorded an estimated non-cash loss of approximately $5,283,000 related to the goodwill recorded in connection with the acquisition of this subsidiary in 2002. The company initially recorded the estimated loss related to its German subsidiary as a non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $5,400,000 during the quarter ended December 31, 2010 based primarily on lowered expectations for growth in future revenues and cash flows, certain unsolicited market information regarding the business and uncertainty regarding the recovery in the market for comparable assets. In accordance with the applicable accounting guidance, this amount has been reclassified to discontinued operations and adjusted based on the estimated net proceeds from the sale.

A summary of the operating results for the discontinued operations is as follows (in thousands):

ExpressMD Solutions combines EncounterCare’s Electronic House Call™ patient vital signs monitoring appliances with a web-based management and monitoring software module based on Authentidate’s Inscrybe® Healthcare platform. The service enables unattended measurements of patients’ vital signs and related health information and is designed to aid wellness and preventative care, and deliver better care to specific patient segments who require regular monitoring of serious medical conditions. Using ExpressMD Solution’s offerings, health care providers will be able to easily view each specific patient’s vital statistics and make adjustments to the patient’s care plan via the Internet. The easy to use patient monitoring solution is intended to provide patients with increased peace of mind and improved condition outcomes through a combination of core plan schedule reminders and comprehensive disease management on their in-home communication unit. The service provides intelligent routing to alert on-duty caregivers whenever a patient’s vital signs are outside of the practitioner’s pre-set ranges. Health care providers and health insurers are also expected to benefit by having additional tools to improve patient care and reduce overall in-person and emergency room patient visits. In April 2009, the joint venture received 510(k) market clearance from the FDA for the monitoring appliance.

The company and EncounterCare Solutions, Inc. each own fifty percent of the joint venture and neither party has any special rights under the joint venture agreement. At March 31, 2011 and 2010, ExpressMD Solutions did not have any assets or liabilities and EncounterCare Solutions, Inc. does not have any recourse to our general credit. ExpressMD Solutions is consolidated in our financial statements because we are currently electing to provide the majority of funding for the joint venture and are deemed to be the primary beneficiary. For the three and nine month periods ended March 31, 2011, we made advances of approximately $245,000 and $554,000, respectively to the joint venture to cover development and operating expenses. To date, the company’s total advances to the joint venture of approximately $1,586,000 have been in excess of the amounts required under the joint venture operating agreement entered into by the company. Although we expect to recover these advances as the joint venture generates revenues, there can be no assurance that such amounts will be recovered. Therefore, these amounts have been expensed as incurred and charged to selling, general and administrative expenses. In addition, we may decide to advance additional amounts to further joint venture activities.

Redeemable Preferred Stock

In connection with the private placement transaction discussed in Note 19 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, in October 2010 the company issued a total of 1,250,000 shares of Series C 15% convertible redeemable preferred stock. Each share of preferred stock has a stated value of $1.60 per share, and, subject to the rights of the company’s senior securities, has the following rights: (i) to receive dividends which accrue at the rate of 15% per annum payable in shares of common stock upon conversion or in cash upon redemption; (ii) effective upon shareholder approval, will convert into shares of common stock determined by dividing the stated value, plus accrued and unpaid dividends, by the conversion price, which is initially $0.40; (iii) to receive a liquidation preference equal to the sum of the stated value of each share of preferred stock, plus dividends; and (iv) unless converted, to be redeemed by the company 18 months from the date of issuance at a redemption price equal to the 102.5% of the stated value of

Authentidate Holding Corp. and Subsidiaries

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

the preferred stock, plus any accrued but unpaid dividends. Conversion of the shares of preferred stock is subject to the approval of the company’s stockholders in accordance with the Listing Rules of the Nasdaq Stock Market. If the company’s shareholders approve the conversion, the aggregate stated value of the shares of preferred stock will automatically convert into 5,000,000 shares of common stock.

At March 31, 2011, the company has accrued dividends in the amount of approximately $138,000 related to these shares of preferred stock. The stated value of the preferred shares and the related accrued dividends are presented as temporary equity under the caption Redeemable preferred stock in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet in accordance with the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission.

As discussed more fully in Note 13 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, since the company will be required to first redeem the Series B preferred stock before it redeems the Series C preferred stock, amounts related to the Series B preferred stock are presented as temporary equity as of March 31, 2011.

Preferred Stock - Series B

As of March 31, 2011, there are 28,000 shares of Series B preferred stock outstanding. The Series B preferred stock was originally issued in a private financing in October 1999 and the conversion and redemption features were amended in October 2002 to provide for the rights and obligations described in this note. The company has the right to repurchase the outstanding Series B preferred stock at a redemption price equal to $25.00 per share, plus accrued and unpaid dividends. The holder of such shares has the right to convert shares of preferred stock into an aggregate of 500,000 shares of our common stock at a conversion rate of $1.40 per share. In the event the company elects to redeem these securities, the holder will be able to exercise its conversion right subsequent to the date that we issue a notice of redemption but prior to the deemed redemption date as would be set forth in such notice. The Company will be required to first redeem the Series B preferred stock if it is required to redeem the Series C preferred stock. Accordingly, as of March 31, 2011, the redemption value of the preferred shares and the related accrued dividends are presented as temporary equity under the caption Redeemable preferred stock in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet in accordance with the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission. At March 31, 2011, the company has accrued dividends in the amount of $17,500 which remain unpaid.

Commitments and Contingencies

Authentidate Holding Corp. and Subsidiaries

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

and efforts to renegotiate, the USPS agreement; and that when we did disclose that the USPS might cancel the agreement, the market price of our stock declined. On October 5, 2005 the Court consolidated the class actions under the caption In re Authentidate Holding Corp. Securities Litigation., C.A. No. 05 Civ. 5323 (LTS), and appointed the Illinois State Board of Investment as lead plaintiff under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act. The plaintiff filed an amended consolidated complaint on January 3, 2006, which asserted the same claims as the prior complaints and also alleged that Authentidate violated the federal securities laws by misrepresenting that it possessed certain patentable technology. On July 14, 2006, the District Court dismissed the amended complaint in its entirety; certain claims were dismissed with prejudice and plaintiff was given leave to replead those claims which were not dismissed with prejudice. In August 2006, plaintiff filed a second amended complaint, which did not assert any claims relating to the company’s patents or under the Securities Act of 1933, but which otherwise was substantially similar to the prior complaint. The second amended complaint sought unspecified monetary damages. The company moved to dismiss the second amended complaint on November 13, 2006. On March 26, 2009, the District Court dismissed, with prejudice, the second amended complaint. The lead plaintiff filed an appeal and a hearing in the case was held before the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit on February 3, 2010. On March 12, 2010, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit issued an order affirming in part and vacating and remanding in part the March 26, 2009 order of dismissal. On December 23, 2010, the company and certain of its current and former directors and former officers entered into a settlement. As set forth more fully in the Stipulation of Settlement, if the settlement is given final approval by the District Court, among other things: (i) all claims will be dismissed with prejudice and released; and (ii) a payment of $1.9 million will be made for the benefit of the settlement class, which will be funded by the company’s insurance carrier. On February 2, 2011, the District Court entered an order that preliminarily approved the Stipulation of Settlement; preliminarily certified a settlement class of all persons who purchased the company’s common stock between July 16, 2004 and May 27, 2005, inclusive; and scheduled a hearing for July 20, 2011 to determine whether to grant final approval of the settlement.

In addition to the class action complaints, four purported shareholder derivative actions were filed against certain current and former directors and former officers of the company in June and July 2005 in the S.D.N.Y. These federal court derivative actions were based on substantially the same events and factual allegations as the original class action complaints and asserted claims that Authentidate was injured by an alleged breach of fiduciary duty, waste, mismanagement, violations of Sarbanes-Oxley, and misappropriation of inside information. The derivative complaints sought, among other things, damages, equitable relief, restitution, and payment of costs and expenses incurred in the litigation (including legal fees). Plaintiffs in the derivative actions entered into a Court-approved stipulation providing for the consolidation of their actions and the selection of Maxine Philips as the lead plaintiff. Plaintiffs filed a consolidated complaint on November 14, 2005, which defendants moved to dismiss on January 13, 2006 on the ground that plaintiffs had not made a proper demand on the Board of Directors. On March 20, 2006, before the motion to dismiss was decided, plaintiffs in the federal court derivative action voluntarily dismissed their complaint without prejudice. On April 6, 2006, the court held a hearing to confirm, among other things, that plaintiffs had not received any payment or other consideration for the dismissal of their claims. At the hearing plaintiffs agreed to file a motion seeking court approval for the dismissal. Plaintiffs filed this motion on April 18, 2006 and the court entered an order dismissing the consolidated complaint on May 5, 2006. Subsequently, on May 25, 2006, the plaintiffs sent a letter to the Board of Directors demanding that it file a derivative suit on behalf of the company which asserts the same claims as the complaint which plaintiffs voluntarily dismissed only weeks earlier.

On December 13, 2005, a purported shareholder derivative action was filed in the Supreme Court of New York, Schenectady County, entitled Elkin v. Goldman et al., No. 2005-2240. Plaintiff in that action demanded that our Board of Directors file a derivative action on behalf of the company against nine of its current and former directors and former officers. The complaint asserts the same claims that are alleged in the derivative actions in the S.D.N.Y. The Board of Directors, following a recommendation from a committee of the Board composed of outside, non-employee directors who were advised by independent outside counsel, concluded that commencing litigation, as demanded by Elkin, is not in the company’s best interest.

Management believes that these legal matters, individually or in aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations, or cash flows in as much as the company believes its current liability insurance is adequate to cover all reasonably anticipated costs, settlements and judgments with respect to these proceedings. However, litigation such as described above, is subject to inherent uncertainties and there can be no assurance that management’s opinion of the anticipated effect of these matters will be correct or that it will not change in the future.

We are engaged in no other litigation which would be anticipated to have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

We have entered into employment agreements with our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer that specify the executive’s current compensation, benefits and perquisites, the executive’s entitlements upon termination of employment, and other employment rights and responsibilities.

We have entered into various agreements by which we may be obligated to indemnify the other party with respect to certain matters. Generally, these indemnification provisions are included in contracts arising in the normal course of business under which

Authentidate Holding Corp. and Subsidiaries

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

we customarily agree to hold the indemnified party harmless against losses arising from a breach of representations related to such matters as intellectual property rights. Payments by us under such indemnification clauses are generally conditioned on the other party making a claim. Such claims are generally subject to challenge by us and to dispute resolution procedures specified in the particular contract. Further, our obligations under these arrangements may be limited in terms of time and/or amount and, in some instances, we may have recourse against third parties for certain payments made by us. It is not possible to predict the maximum potential amount of future payments under these indemnification agreements due to the conditional nature of our obligations and the unique facts of each particular agreement. Historically, we have not made any payments under these agreements that have been material individually or in the aggregate. As of March 31, 2011, we are not aware of any obligations under such indemnification agreements that would require material payments.

15.

Income Taxes

The company continues to fully recognize its tax benefits which are offset by a valuation allowance due to the uncertainty that the deferred tax assets will be realized. We will continue to evaluate the realizability of our domestic net deferred tax assets and may record additional benefits in future earnings if we determine the realization of these assets is more likely than not.

On September 23, 2009, the company entered into a binding Standby Commitment (the “Commitment”) with an accredited investor (the “Investor”) for up to $3,000,000 in financing during the 12-month commitment term. The Commitment provided that if the company closed a financing with a third party or sold certain of its assets then the company would redeem any outstanding borrowings and the Commitment amount would be reduced to the extent of the net proceeds from such transactions. The company did not issue any convertible debentures pursuant to the Commitment and the commitment was reduced to zero in connection with a registered direct offering completed in December 2009. In connection with the Commitment, the company granted 400,000 warrants to the Investor in consideration of the Commitment to provide the financing. The warrants will be exercisable for five years at an exercise price of $1.20 per share. The Investor is an entity affiliated with Mr. Douglas Luce, who is a brother of Mr. J. David Luce, a member of the company’s Board of Directors. The warrants will be restricted securities issued in reliance upon the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. In connection with issuance of the 400,000 warrants related to the Commitment, the company recorded non-cash deferred financing costs and additional paid-in capital of approximately $533,000. These warrants were valued using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Following the closing of the company’s financing transaction in December 2009 and subsequent warrant exercises in January 2010, the Commitment amount was reduced to zero and the deferred financing costs were fully amortized as other expense during the quarter ended December 31, 2009.

Fair Value Measurements

The company measures fair value for financial assets and liabilities in accordance with the provisions of the accounting guidance regarding fair value measurements. The guidance utilizes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels. A brief description of those three levels is as follows:

•

Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

•

Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.

•

Level 3: Significant unobservable inputs.

Authentidate Holding Corp. and Subsidiaries

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

The company’s assets subject to fair value measurements as of March 31, 2011 are as follows (in thousands):


	Fair Value Measurements Using Fair Value Hierarchy
	Fair value		Level 1		Level 2		Level 3

Current marketable securities - available for sale	$	980	$	980	$	—	$	—

Total	$	980	$	980	$	—	$	—

At June 30, 2010, the company had approximately $2.0 million of assets held for sale that were valued on a non-recurring basis using level 3 inputs. These assets were sold in July 2010. For the nine months ended March 31, 2011, no gains or losses resulting from the fair value measurement of financial assets were included in the company’s earnings.

The accounting guidance regarding fair value measurements permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value that are not currently required to be measured at fair value and establishes presentation and disclosure requirements designed to facilitate comparisons between entities that choose different measurement attributes for similar assets and liabilities. The company has elected not to measure any eligible items at fair value.

Accounting Standards Adopted in Fiscal 2011

The company adopted the following FASB Accounting Standards Updates (ASU) during fiscal 2011:

•

ASU 2009-13, “Revenue Recognition Topic 605)-Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements,” which addresses the accounting for multiple-deliverable arrangements to enable vendors to account for products or services (deliveries) separately rather than as a combined unit. This guidance establishes a selling price hierarchy for determining the selling price of a deliverable, which is based on: (a) vendor-specific objective evidence; (b) third-party evidence; or (c) estimates. This guidance also eliminates the residual method of allocation and requires that arrangement consideration be allocated at the inception of the arrangement to all deliverables using the relative selling price method. In addition, this guidance expands disclosures related to a vendor’s multiple-deliverable revenue arrangements.

•

ASU 2009-14, “Software (Topic 985)-Certain Revenue Arrangements That Include Software Elements” which changes the accounting model for revenue arrangements that include both tangible products and software elements. Under this guidance, tangible products containing software components and nonsoftware components that function together to deliver the tangible product’s essential functionality are excluded from the software revenue guidance in Subtopic 985-605, Software-Revenue Recognition. In addition, hardware components of a tangible product containing software components are always excluded from the software revenue guidance.

•

ASU 2009-17, “Consolidations (Topic 810) – Improvements to Financial Reporting by Enterprises Involved with Variable Interest Entities” which changes how a reporting entity determines when an entity that is insufficiently capitalized or is not controlled through voting (or similar rights) should be consolidated and requires additional disclosures about involvement with variable interest entities and changes in risk exposure related to such entities. The determination of whether a reporting entity is required to consolidate another entity is based on, among other things, the other entity’s purpose and design and the reporting entity’s ability to direct the activities of the other entity that most significantly impact the other entity’s economic performance.

•

ASU 2010-29, “ Business Combination (Topic 805): Disclosure of Supplementary Pro Forma Information for Business Combinations” which clarifies that for business combinations that are material on an individual or aggregate basis, a public entity that presents comparative financial statements should disclose revenue and earnings of the combined entity as though the business combination(s) that occurred during the current year had occurred as of the beginning of the comparable prior annual reporting period only. The ASU also expands the supplemental pro forma disclosures to include a description of the nature and amounts of material, nonrecurring pro forma adjustments directly attributable to the business combination included in the reported pro forma revenue and earnings.

The adoption of ASU’s described above had no impact on the company’s results of operations or financial position.

Private Placement

On October 12, 2010, the company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with selected institutional and accredited investors (the “Investors”) to sell and issue $5.0 million of units of its securities in a private placement under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated thereunder (the “Private Placement”). In the aggregate, the company agreed to sell 1,250,000 units of securities, at a price of $4.00 per unit, with the units consisting of a total of 7,500,000 shares of common stock, 1,250,000 shares of Series C 15% convertible redeemable preferred stock (the “Preferred Stock”), and warrants to purchase an additional 6,250,000 shares of common stock (the “Warrants”). Each individual unit consists of six shares of common stock, one share of preferred stock and five warrants. The transaction closed on October 13, 2010 and the company received net proceeds from the Private Placement of approximately $4.46 million after the deduction of offering expenses of approximately $540,000.

In this transaction, the company issued a total of 1,250,000 shares of Preferred Stock. Each share of Preferred Stock has a stated value of $1.60 per share, and, subject to the rights of the company’s senior securities, has the following rights: (i) to receive dividends which accrue at the rate of 15% per annum payable in shares of common stock upon conversion or in cash upon redemption; (ii) effective upon shareholder approval, will convert into shares of common stock determined by dividing the stated value, plus accrued and unpaid dividends, by the Conversion Price, which is initially $0.40; (iii) to receive a liquidation preference equal to the sum of the stated value of each share of Preferred Stock, plus dividends; and (iv) unless converted, to be redeemed by the company 18 months from the date of issuance at a redemption price equal to the 102.5% of the stated value of the Preferred Stock, plus any accrued but unpaid dividends. Conversion of the shares of Preferred Stock is subject to the approval of the company’s stockholders in accordance with the Listing Rules of the Nasdaq Stock Market. If the company’s shareholders approve the conversion, the aggregate stated value of the shares of Preferred Stock will automatically convert into 5,000,000 shares of common stock.

Commencing on the six month anniversary of the closing, the Warrants will be exercisable for shares of the company’s common stock at an exercise price of $0.70 per share for a period of 54 months and will be exercisable for cash or by net exercise in the event that there is no effective registration statement covering the resale of the shares of common stock underlying the Warrants. No Investor is permitted to exercise a Warrant, or part thereof, if, upon such exercise, the number of shares of common stock beneficially owned by the Investor would exceed 19.99% of the number of shares of common stock then issued and outstanding, unless the company’s stockholders have approved such issuance. The value of these warrants using the Black-Scholes option pricing model was approximately $2,853,000.

In connection with the Purchase Agreement, the company entered into a Registration Rights Agreement with the Investors. Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, the company agreed to file a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) within 45 days from closing to register the resale of the shares of common stock to be issued at closing and the shares of common stock underlying the Preferred Stock and the Warrants (collectively the “Registrable Securities”). The company also agreed to use its best efforts to have the registration statement declared effective as promptly as possible after the filing thereof, but in any event within 90 days from the filing date.

This registration statement was declared effective on December 9, 2010. In the event it ceases to remain continuously effective as required by the Registration Rights Agreement (each such event, a “Registration Default”), then the company has agreed to pay each Investor as liquidated damages an amount equal to 1.0% of the purchase price paid by each such Investor with respect to any Registrable Securities then held and not registered pursuant to an effective registration statement, per 30-day period or portion thereof during which the Registration Default remains uncured thereafter, subject to a limitation of 6% per Registration Default. In addition, the company agreed to keep the Registration Statement continuously effective until the earlier to occur of (i) the date after which all of the Registrable Shares registered thereunder shall have been sold and (ii) the date on which 100% of the Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement may be sold without volume restrictions pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

During the initial base period of the agreement, the contract has an estimated maximum potential value of approximately $38.2 million, depending on the number of units actually purchased by VA facilities. There is no minimum purchase requirement under the contract. The agreement has an estimated maximum potential value of approximately $122.0 million, assuming all contract extensions are exercised by the VA and the maximum quantity of units are purchased by VA facilities. There can be no assurance that the VA will exercise any of the option periods under the agreement nor can the company provide any assurances as to the actual amount of products and solutions, if any, that may ultimately be purchased by VA facilities under the agreement.

Authentidate currently operates its business in the United States with technology and service offerings that address emerging growth opportunities based on the regulatory and legal requirements specific to each market. The business is engaged in the development and sale of web-based services largely based on our Inscrybe® platform and related capabilities and telehealth services through our ExpressMD™ Solutions joint venture. The company had offered its patent-pending content authentication technology in

the form of the USPS Electronic Postmark® (USPS EPM®). However, the company’s contract with the United States Postal Service® (USPS®) for the use of the USPS EPM® brand was allowed to expire as of December 31, 2010, in accordance with its terms. The USPS and the company continue to work towards effecting a smooth transition from the USPS EPM brand. The company will continue to provide customers with uninterrupted content authentication and time and date stamping services under the Authentidate brand as it transitions from the USPS brand. In March, 2011, the company began to market its content authentication services as AuthentiProof™. In Germany the business was engaged in the development and sale of software applications that provide electronic signature and time stamping capabilities for a variety of corporate processes including electronic billing and archiving solutions and security technology offerings. Our web-based services and software applications are compliant with applicable digital signature rules and guidelines. We sell our web-based services and software applications through a direct sales effort.

On April 1, 2011, we completed the previously announced sale of all of the shares of capital stock of our wholly-owned subsidiary, Authentidate International AG (“Authentidate International”) to Exceet Group, AG, a Swiss corporation (the “Purchaser”). Under the terms of the Share Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”), dated as of March 9, 2011, we sold and transferred all of the capital stock of Authentidate International to Purchaser for a purchase price of $1,433,000. In addition, the Purchaser also agreed to acquire certain of our claims regarding our interest in Authentidate International in consideration of the payment of €70,000 ($97,300) and to assume the net liabilities of Authentidate International. Following our sale of Authentidate International, we no longer operate in Germany. As described in greater detail in the notes to our condensed consolidated financial statements, the results of operations, cash flows and related assets and liabilities of our German subsidiary have been presented as discontinued operations and assets and liabilities of discontinued operations in the condensed consolidated financial statements for all periods presented.

For a number of years, we have experienced net losses and negative cash flow from operating activities. Our principal activities during this period have focused on developing new products and services, hiring management, refining our business strategies and repositioning our businesses for growth. Although we believe we are well positioned for such growth, we expect to continue to generate net losses and negative cash flow for the foreseeable future as we seek to expand our potential markets and generate increased revenues. See “Liquidity and Capital Resources”. As described in greater detail below, in October 2010 we completed a private placement of our securities with certain institutional and accredited investors from which we received net proceeds of approximately $4.46 million. The private placement was conducted pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Rule 506 of Regulation D, promulgated thereunder. We are using the proceeds derived from this transaction for working capital and general corporate purposes, including supporting the rollout of our ExpressMD telehealth products and services.

We have continued to take steps to refine our core service offerings, significantly expand our addressable markets, manage operating costs and position the company for long-term growth. We are focused on refining and marketing Inscrybe® Healthcare, an automated and trusted health information exchange and workflow management service targeting the needs of enterprises in the healthcare market, and our ExpressMD telehealth products and services. Since receiving 510(k) market clearance from the FDA for the monitoring appliance in April 2009 we have been implementing our manufacturing and sales plans for ExpressMD and have started to deploy units and services with customers. We believe our business will benefit from federal government healthcare reforms and trends in the U.S. healthcare industry to significantly reduce costs, shorten the length of hospital stays, shift patient care towards wellness and preventative care programs and automate healthcare records and processes. Although we have taken steps to focus our business in these areas, our progress will be impacted by the timing of customer contracts and implementations and the market acceptance of our products and services.

Our current revenues consist principally of transaction fees for web-based hosted software services. From our telehealth business we generate revenues from hardware sales and rentals, monthly monitoring services and maintenance fees. Growth in our business is affected by a number of factors, including general economic and business conditions, and is characterized by long sales cycles. The timing of customer contracts, implementations and ramp-up to full utilization can have a significant impact on results and we believe our results over a longer period of time provide better visibility into our performance.

We intend to continue our efforts to market our web-based services, telehealth solutions and related products in our target markets. We also intend to focus on identifying additional applications and markets where our technology can address customer needs.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon our condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles requires us to make estimates, which include judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We have based our estimates on historical experience and on various assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. We evaluate our estimates on a regular basis and make changes accordingly. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. To the extent that there are material differences between these estimates and actual results, our financial condition or results of operations will be affected.

A critical accounting estimate is based on judgments and assumptions about matters that are uncertain at the time the estimate is made. Different estimates that reasonably could have been used or changes in accounting estimates could materially impact our financial statements. We believe that the policies described below represent our critical accounting policies, as they have the greatest potential impact on our financial statements. However, you should also review our Summary of Significant Accounting Policies beginning on page F-7 of Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010.

Long-Lived Assets

Long-lived assets, including property and equipment, software development costs, patent costs, trademarks and licenses are reviewed for impairment using an undiscounted cash flow approach whenever events or changes in circumstances such as significant changes in the business climate, changes in product offerings, or other circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable.

Software Development Costs

Software development and modification costs incurred subsequent to establishing technological feasibility are capitalized and amortized based on anticipated revenue for the related product with an annual minimum charge equal to the straight-line amortization over the remaining economic life of the related products (generally three years). Amortization expense is included in depreciation and amortization expense.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue is derived from transaction fees for web-based hosted software and related services and post contract customer support services. Revenue is recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the selling price is fixed and collectibility is reasonably assured. Multiple-element arrangements are assessed to determine whether they can be separated into more than one unit of accounting. A multiple-element arrangement is separated into more than one unit of accounting if all of the following criteria are met: the delivered item has value to the customer on a standalone basis; there is objective and reliable evidence of the fair value of the undelivered items in the arrangement; if the arrangement includes a general right of return relative to the delivered items, and delivery or performance of the undelivered item is considered probable and substantially in our control. If these criteria are not met, then revenue is deferred until such criteria are met or until the period over which the last undelivered element is delivered, which is typically the life of the contract agreement. If these criteria are met, we allocate total revenue among the elements based on the sales price of each element when sold separately which is referred to as vendor specific objective evidence or VSOE.

Revenue from web-based hosted software and related services and post contract customer support services is recognized when the related service is provided and, when required, accepted by the customer. Revenue from multiple element arrangements that cannot be allocated to identifiable items is recognized ratably over the contract term which is generally one year.

Management Estimates

Preparing financial statements requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses. Examples include estimates of loss contingencies and product life cycles, assumptions such as elements comprising a software arrangement, including the distinction between upgrades/enhancements and new products; when technological feasibility is achieved for our products; the potential outcome of future tax consequences; and determining when investment or other impairments exist. We maintain allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of our customers to make required payments. We make estimates on the future recoverability of capitalized amounts, we record a valuation allowance against deferred tax assets when we believe it is more likely than not that such deferred tax assets will not be realized and we make assumptions in connection with the calculations of share-based compensation expense. Actual results and outcomes may differ from management’s estimates, judgments and assumptions. We have based our estimates on historical experience and on various assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances and we evaluate our estimates on a regular basis and make changes accordingly. Historically, our estimates relative to our critical accounting estimates have not differed materially from actual results; however, actual results may differ from these estimates under different conditions. If actual results differ from these estimates and other considerations used in estimating amounts reflected in our consolidated financial statements, the resulting changes could have a material adverse effect on our consolidated statement of operations, and in certain situations, could have a material adverse effect on liquidity and our financial condition.

Stock-Based Compensation

We apply the accounting guidance regarding stock compensation to account for employee and director stock option plans. Share-based employee compensation expense is determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model which values options based on the

stock price at the grant date, the exercise price of the option, the expected life of the option, the estimated volatility, expected dividend payments and the risk-free interest rate over the expected life of the options.


	Risk Free Interest Rate			Dividend Yield			Volatility Factor			Weighted Average Expected Option Life (Months)
Fiscal year 2011		1.8	%		0	%		107	%		48
Fiscal year 2010		2.5	%		0	%		103	%		48

Concentrations of Credit Risk

Financial instruments which subject us to concentrations of credit risk consist of cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities and trade accounts receivable. To reduce credit risk, we place our cash, cash equivalents and investments with several high credit quality financial institutions and typically invest in AA or better rated investments. We monitor our credit customers and we establish an allowance for doubtful accounts based upon factors surrounding the credit risk of specific customers, historical trends and other information.

The following analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Results of Operations

Three and nine months ended March 31, 2011 compared to three and nine months ended March 31, 2010

Revenues were $709,000 for the quarter March 31, 2011 compared to $610,000 for the prior year period. These results reflect an increase of approximately 16% in revenues from increases in transaction volumes and new customer projects. Revenues for the nine months ended March 31, 2011 were approximately $2,087,000 compared to $1,760,000 for the prior year period reflecting the same trends as the quarter.

Cost of revenues decreased to $438,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2011 compared to $533,000 for the same period in the prior year. This decrease is due primarily to lower hosting and license fees offset in part by higher maintenance and telecom expenses. Cost of revenues for the nine months ended March 31, 2011 decreased to $1,456,000 compared to $1,527,000 for the prior year period reflecting the same trends as the quarter.

Selling general and administrative (SG&A) expenses decreased to $1,470,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2011 compared to $1,698,000 for the prior year period. The decrease reflects our cost management activities for the period. SG&A expenses for the nine months ended March 31, 2011 decreased to $4,370,000 compared to $5,369,000 for the prior year period reflecting the same trends as the quarter.

Product development expenses were $213,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2011 compared to $257,000 for the prior year period. Product development expenses fluctuate period to period based on the amounts capitalized. Total spending for the quarter, including capitalized amounts, was $213,000 compared to $260,000 for the prior year reflecting our cost management activities. Product development expenses for the nine months ended March 31, 2011 were $617,000 compared to $792,000 for the prior year

period. Total spending for the period, including capitalized amounts, was $617,000 compared to $873,000 for the prior year period reflecting the same trends as the quarter.

Depreciation and amortization expense was $289,000 compared to $349,000 for the prior year period. This change is due primarily to an decrease in amortization of capitalized software. For the nine month period depreciation and amortization was $855,000 compared to $872,000 for the prior year period reflecting the same trends as the quarter.

Interest and other income was $0 for the quarter ended March 31, 2011 compared to $91,000 for the prior year period due primarily to the sale of non-core assets discussed below. For the nine months ended March 31, 2011 interest and other income was $365,000 compared to $269,000 for the prior year period. This increase reflects a gain on the sale of certain non-core assets in July 2010 of approximately $351,000 offset in part by lower interest and rental income for the period as a result of such sale. For the nine month period ended March 31, 2010 other expense included a non-cash expense of $533,000 to amortize deferred financing costs related to a standby financing commitment discussed more fully in Note 16 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements which resulted in a net expense for the periods.

The loss on the sale and related operations of our German subsidiary discussed in the Overview section above was approximately $5,647,000, or $0.13 per share, for the nine month period ended March 31, 2011. The Company initially recorded the estimated loss during the quarter ended December 31, 2010 as a goodwill impairment charge based primarily on lowered expectations for growth in future revenues and cash flows, certain unsolicited market information regarding the business and uncertainty regarding the recovery in the market for comparable assets. In accordance with the accounting guidance, the company reclassified this amount to discontinued operations for the period ended March 31, 2011.

Net loss from continuing and discontinued operations for the quarter ended March 31, 2011 was $1,621,000, or $0.04 per share, compared to $2,268,000, or $0.06 per share, for the prior year period. The net loss for the period reflects higher revenues and lower expenses from our cost management activities. For the nine months ended March 31, 2011 net loss from continuing and discontinued operations was $10,493,000, or $0.25 per share, compared to $7,200,000, or $0.20 per share, for the prior year period. The net loss for the period primarily reflects the same trends as the quarter, the gain on the sale of certain non-core assets and the loss on the sale and operations of our German subsidiary discussed above. Operating results for discontinued operations were not significant for the three and nine month periods ended March 31, 2011.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Overview

Our operations and product development activities have required substantial capital investment to date. Our primary sources of funds have been the issuance of equity and the incurrence of third party debt. In February 2004, we sold 5,360,370 common shares in private placements pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 and Rule 506, promulgated thereunder and received net proceeds of approximately $69,100,000 after payment of offering expenses and broker commissions. The proceeds received from this financing have been used to provide funding for our operations and product development activities. In addition, we completed a $3,400,000 registered direct offering of shares of common stock and warrants in December 2009 and received net proceeds of approximately $3,500,000 from this financing and the related warrant exercises. As described in greater detail in Notes 6 and 19, respectively, of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, in July 2010 we completed the sale of certain non-core assets and received net proceeds of approximately $2,350,000 and on October 13, 2010, the company completed the sale of $5,000,000 of its securities to institutional and accredited investors in a private placement transaction under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1993, as amended, and Rule 506 of Regulation D, promulgated thereunder and received net proceeds of approximately $4,460,000 from this transaction. We are using the proceeds from these transactions for working capital and general corporate purposes, including supporting the rollout of our ExpressMD telehealth products and services.

On April 1, 2011, the company completed the previously announced sale of all of the shares of capital stock of the it’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Authentidate International AG (“Authentidate International”) to Exceet Group, AG, a Swiss corporation (“Purchaser”). Under the terms of the Share Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”), dated as of March 9, 2011, the company sold and transferred all of the capital stock of Authentidate International to Purchaser for a purchase price of $1,433,000. In addition, the Purchaser also agreed to acquire certain claims of the company regarding its interest in Authentidate International in consideration of the payment of €70,000 ($97,300) and to assume the net liabilities of Authentidate International. In accordance with the Purchase Agreement, the company and Authentidate International also entered into two license agreements relating to certain of their intellectual property rights. Pursuant to a Trademark License Agreement, the company granted Authentidate International a license to use the “Authentidate” trademark in the field of use defined in the Trademark License Agreement and only in the territory consisting of the European Economic Area and a limited number of other countries. In addition, pursuant to a separate Intellectual Property License Agreement, Authentidate International granted the company a license to utilize patent, software and certain other intellectual property rights. Further, in connection with the foregoing, the company agreed to provide the Chief Executive Officer of

Authentidate International a bonus payment equal to 5% of the net sale price received by the company in consideration of his efforts in connection with the transaction.

Expenditures for property and equipment totaled approximately $69,000 and expenditures for software licenses totaled approximately $10,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2011. We have developed and intend to continue to develop new applications to grow our business and address new markets.

During the quarter ended September 30, 2009 we filed with the SEC a registration statement on Form S-3 and a pre-effective amendment to such registration statement under the Securities Act. The shelf registration, was declared effective by the SEC on September 30, 2009 and allows us to sell, from time to time in one or more public offerings, shares of our common stock, shares of our preferred stock, debt securities or warrants to purchase common stock, preferred stock or debt securities, or any combination of such securities, for proceeds in the aggregate amount of up to $40 million. Following the completion of our registered direct offering in December 2009, there is approximately $36 million available under this registration statement for future transactions, subject to SEC limitations. The terms of any such future offerings, if any, and the type of equity or debt securities would be established at the time of the offering. This disclosure shall not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy the securities, nor shall there be any sale of these securities in any jurisdiction in which an offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of such jurisdiction. Any offer of the securities will be solely by means of the prospectus included in the registration statement and one or more prospectus supplements that will be issued at the time of the offering.

Cash Flows

At March 31, 2011, cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities amounted to approximately $2,513,000 and total assets at that date were $13,944,000. Since June 30, 2010 cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities increased approximately $1,158,000 from the sale of non-core assets and the issuance of company securities offset by cash used principally to fund operating losses, product development activities, joint venture investments, changes in working capital and capital expenditures during the nine months ended March 31, 2011. Cash used for the period includes investments in joint venture inventory and operations of approximately $774,000 and $446,000, respectively, and the prepayment of certain insurance premiums and maintenance contracts. We expect to continue to use cash to fund operating losses, product development activities, joint venture investments and capital expenditures for the foreseeable future.

Net cash used by operating activities for the nine months ended March 31, 2011 was approximately $5,512,000 compared to $6,650,000 for the prior year period. This change reflects our cost management activities offset in part by the joint venture investments and prepayments discussed above.

Net cash provided by investing activities, excluding purchases and sales of marketable securities, was $2,272,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2011 compared to a use of $101,000 for the prior year period. This change is due primarily to net proceeds from the sale of non-core assets discussed above.

Net cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended March 31, 2011 was approximately $4,398,000 compared to $3,505,000 for the prior year period. These amounts are due primarily to the private placement transaction in 2010 and the registered direct offering in 2009 discussed above.

Cash flows from discontinued operations were not significant for the periods. Net proceeds from the sale of these operations and related items amounted to approximately $1,300,000.

To date we have been largely dependent on our ability to sell additional shares of our common stock or other securities to obtain financing to fund our operating deficits, product development activities, capital expenditures and joint venture activities. Under our current operating plan to grow our business, our ability to improve operating cash flow has been highly dependent on the market acceptance of our offerings. As mentioned in the Overview Section, we believe that the company will benefit from the federal government healthcare reforms and industry trends focused on automation and cost reduction. For the three and nine months ended March 31, 2011, the company incurred a net loss of $1,621,000 and $10,493,000, respectively, including a loss related to discontinued operations of $5,647,000. As of March 31, 2011, cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities were $2,513,000, the company had working capital for continuing operations of $5,626,000, an accumulated deficit of $166,203,000 and total shareholders’ equity of $6,161,000. These conditions indicate that the company may be unable to continue as a going concern. Based on our business plan, resources available at March 31, 2011 and net proceeds from the sale of our German subsidiary, we believe that we have sufficient working capital to fund our operations for the next twelve months. However, no assurances can be given that we will be able to attain sales levels and support our costs through revenues derived from operations. If cash flows from operations, however, are less than expected, we may need to reduce expenses or seek additional capital. There can be no assurance that the company will be successful in raising additional capital, or securing financing if needed or on terms satisfactory to the company. Any inability to obtain required financing on sufficiently favorable terms could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Our future capital requirements may vary materially from those now planned. The amount of capital that we will need in the future will depend on many factors, including:

•

our relationships with suppliers and customers;

•

the market acceptance of our software, services and products;

•

the levels of promotion and advertising that will be required to launch our new offerings and achieve and maintain a competitive position in the marketplace;

•

price discounts on our software and services and other products to our customers;

•

our pursuit of strategic transactions;

•

our business, product, capital expenditure and research and development plans and product and technology roadmaps;

•

the level of accounts receivable and inventories, if any, that we maintain;

•

capital improvements to new and existing facilities;

•

technological advances; and

•

our competitors’ response to our offerings.

Other Matters

The events and contingencies described below have impacted or may impact our liquidity and capital resources.

Presently, 28,000 shares of our Series B preferred stock, originally issued in a private financing in October 1999, remain outstanding. As of October 1, 2004, our right to redeem these shares of Series B preferred stock is vested. Accordingly, we have the right to repurchase such shares at a redemption price equal to $25.00 per share, plus accrued and unpaid dividends. The holder, however, has the right to convert these shares of preferred stock into an aggregate of 500,000 shares of our common stock at a conversion rate of $1.40. In the event we elect to redeem these securities, the holder will be able to exercise its conversion right subsequent to the date that we issue a notice of redemption but prior to the deemed redemption date as would be set forth in such notice. As of March 31, 2011, no shares of the Series B preferred stock have been redeemed.

Between June and August 2005, several purported shareholder class and derivative actions were filed against our company and certain current and former directors and former officers. The complaints and current status of these actions are described in detail under the caption “Legal Proceedings,” appearing in Item 1 of Part II of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. On December 23, 2010, the company and certain of its current and former directors and former officers entered into a settlement. As set forth more fully in the Stipulation of Settlement, if the settlement is given final approval by the District Court, among other things: (i) all claims will be dismissed with prejudice and released; and (ii) a payment of $1.9 million will be made for the benefit of the settlement class, which will be funded by the company’s insurance carrier. On February 2, 2011, the District Court entered an order that preliminarily approved the Stipulation of Settlement; preliminarily certified a settlement class of all persons who purchased the company’s common stock between July 16, 2004 and May 27, 2005, inclusive; and scheduled a hearing for July 20, 2011 to determine whether to grant final approval of the settlement.

In connection with the private placement, we filed with the Secretary of State of Delaware a Certificate of Designations, Preferences and Rights and Number of Shares of Series C 15% convertible redeemable preferred stock, or the Series C Designation. The Series C Designation provides for the mandatory redemption of all outstanding shares of Series C preferred stock upon their stated maturity date, which is April 12, 2012, the 18 month anniversary of the original issue date, unless prior to such date, our shareholders approve the conversion of the shares of Series C preferred stock into shares of our common stock. If we are required to redeem the shares of Series C preferred stock, we will be required to pay to the holders of the shares of Series C preferred stock a total redemption price equal to 102.5% of the stated value of the Series C shares, plus dividends, which would be $2,500,000. In addition, if at the maturity date of the Series C preferred stock, any shares of our Series B preferred stock remain outstanding, we will be required to redeem all such outstanding shares of Series B preferred stock immediately prior to the redemption of the Series C preferred stock. There are currently 28,000 shares of Series B preferred stock outstanding and the total redemption payment for the Series B preferred stock is equal to $700,000 plus any accrued, but unpaid dividends thereon as of such redemption date. Accordingly, the redemption of these securities may have an adverse effect on our cash position.

On February 4, 2011, we entered into agreements with each of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer in order to continue the compensation modification program implemented in February 2010. Pursuant to these agreements, both officers agreed to continue the reduction in their base salary to 85% of their original base salary until such time as the company achieves “cash flow breakeven” as measured through the fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2012. Pursuant to these continuation agreements, the term “cash flow breakeven” was modified from the definition adopted when we originally implement this program and is now defined to mean that the company has achieved positive cash flow from operations for two consecutive fiscal quarters ending no later than the end of the fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2012, determined by reference to the revenues and other amounts received by the company from its operations. The term “cash flow from operations”, however, shall not include (a) amounts received from the sale, lease or disposition of (i) fixed or capital assets, except for amounts received in the ordinary course of business; or (ii) any subsidiary

company; (b) capital expenditures; (c) interest income and expense; and (d) other non-operating items as determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States as consistently applied during the periods involved. In consideration for these agreements, we granted these officers options to purchase such number of shares of common stock as is equal to 15% of their base salary. Accordingly, we granted our Chief Executive Officer 43,500 options and granted our Chief Financial Officer 39,000 options. The options were granted under the company’s 2010 Employee Stock Option Plan, are exercisable for a period of 10 years at a per share exercise price of $0.44 and shall only vest and become exercisable upon either the date determined that the company achieves cash flow breakeven, as defined above, or in the event of a termination of employment either without “cause” or for “good reason”, as such terms were defined in the employment agreements we previously entered with each such officer.

Further, in connection with the continuation of the above-referenced compensation modification program, all other employees of the company were granted options to purchase shares of common stock under the company’s 2010 Employee Stock Option Plan in consideration for the continued salary reduction. Under this program, the company reduced the salaries of non-executive employees earning $110,000 per annum or less by 10% and reduced the salaries of its other non-executive employees by 15% and in consideration for such modification, awarded these employees options to purchase such number of shares of common stock as is equal to the foregone salary as measured over a one-year period. Accordingly, we granted our non-executive employees a total of 391,050 options. Under this program, employees’ base salary will revert to its prior level upon the company’s achievement of cash flow breakeven, as defined above, or if otherwise specified by the Board of Directors to be earlier. The options awarded to non-executive employees will vest on the date that the company achieves cash flow breakeven, as defined above, and shall have the same exercise price and expiration date as the options granted to our executives. In addition, in connection with the foregoing, we also amended the vesting for the options granted in February 2010 to our employees, including executive officers, when we first implemented the compensation modification program. The amendment provides that the measurement period to determine whether the vesting criteria of achieving “cash flow from operations” has been satisfied shall expire at the end of the fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2012.

Commitments

Office Lease Commitments

We entered into the lease agreement for our executive offices on July 11, 2005. The lease was for a term of ten years and four months, with a commencement date of October 1, 2005 and covers approximately 19,700 total rentable square feet. The annual rent in the first year was $324,000 increasing to $512,000 in year 2 and increasing at regular intervals until year 10 when the annual rent was approximately $561,000. Effective February 1, 2010, we amended our lease to reduce the annual rent to approximately $512,000 for the remaining lease term and extended the lease term for one year through January 2017. The lease also provides us with a one-time option to renew the lease for a term of five years at the then-current market rate. As part of the lease agreement, we had posted a letter of credit securing our lease payments which was reduced to approximately $256,000.

Contractual Commitments

A summary of the contractual commitments associated with our on-going lease obligations as of March 31, 2011 is as follows (in thousands):


	Total		Less than 1 year		1-3 years		4-5 years
Total operating leases	$	3,644	$	804	$	1,901	$	939

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have not created, and are not party to, any special-purpose or off-balance sheet entities for the purpose of raising capital, incurring debt or operating parts of our business that are not consolidated into our financial statements. We do not have any arrangements or relationships with entities that are not consolidated into our financial statements that are reasonably likely to materially affect our liquidity or the availability of our capital resources. We have entered into various agreements by which we may be obligated to indemnify the other party with respect to certain matters. Generally, these indemnification provisions are included in contracts arising in the normal course of business under which we customarily agree to hold the indemnified party harmless against losses arising from a breach of representations related to such matters as intellectual property rights. Payments by us under such indemnification clauses are generally conditioned on the other party making a claim. Such claims are generally subject to challenge by us and to dispute resolution procedures specified in the particular contract. Further, our obligations under these arrangements may be limited in terms of time and/or amount and, in some instances, we may have recourse against third parties for certain payments made by us. It is not possible to predict the maximum potential amount of future payments under these indemnification agreements due to the conditional nature of our obligations and the unique facts of each particular agreement. Historically, we have not made any

payments under these agreements that have been material individually or in the aggregate. As of March 31, 2011, we were not aware of any obligations under such indemnification agreements that would require material payments.

Effects of Inflation and Changing Prices

The impact of general inflation on our operations has not been significant to date and we believe inflation will continue to have an insignificant impact on us.

Present Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted

In December 2010 the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2010-28 “Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic350): When to Perform Step 2 of the Goodwill Impairment Test for Reporting Units with Zero or Negative Carrying Amounts” which modifies Step 1 of the goodwill impairment test for reporting units with zero or negative carrying amounts. For those reporting units, an entity is required to perform Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test if it is more likely than not that a goodwill impairment exists. In determining whether it is more likely than not that a goodwill impairment exists, an entity should consider whether there are any adverse qualitative factors indicating that an impairment may exist. For public entities ASU 2010-28 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2010. Early adoption is not permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of this standard on our Consolidated Financial Statements.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

We have approximately $980,000 invested in short-term investments as of March 31, 2011. We are not exposed to significant financial market risks from changes in foreign currency exchange rates and are only minimally impacted by changes in interest rates. However, in the future, we may enter into transactions denominated in non-U.S. currencies or increase the level of our borrowings, which could increase our exposure to these market risks. We have not used, and currently do not contemplate using, any derivative financial instruments.

Interest Rate Risk

At any time, fluctuations in interest rates could affect interest earnings on our cash and marketable securities. We believe that the effect, if any, of reasonably possible near term changes in interest rates on our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows would not be material. Currently, we do not hedge these interest rate exposures. The primary objective of our investment activities is to preserve capital. We have not used derivative financial instruments in our investment portfolio.

At March 31, 2011, our unrestricted cash and marketable securities totaled approximately $2,513,000, of which approximately $980,000 was invested in money market investments. The remainder of our cash was in non-interest bearing checking accounts used to pay operating expenses. For more information on our investments see Note 5 of Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, after evaluating the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report, have concluded that, based on the evaluation of these controls and procedures, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal controls will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within our company have been detected. Our management, however, believes our disclosure controls and procedures are in fact effective to provide reasonable assurance that the objectives of the control system are met.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There was no change in our system of internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) during the quarter ended March 31, 2011 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Part II Other Information

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

Between June and August 2005, six purported shareholder class actions were filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (the “District Court”) against our company and certain of our current and former directors and former officers. Plaintiffs in those actions alleged that defendants violated Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Sections 11 and 15 of the Securities Act of 1933. The securities law claims were based on the allegations that we failed to disclose that our August 2002 agreement with the USPS contained certain performance metrics, and that the USPS could cancel the agreement if we did not meet these metrics; that we did not disclose complete and accurate information as to our performance under, and efforts to renegotiate, the USPS agreement; and that when we did disclose that the USPS might cancel the agreement, the market price of our stock declined. On October 5, 2005 the Court consolidated the class actions under the caption In re Authentidate Holding Corp. Securities Litigation., C.A. No. 05 Civ. 5323 (LTS), and appointed the Illinois State Board of Investment as lead plaintiff under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act. The plaintiff filed an amended consolidated complaint on January 3, 2006, which asserted the same claims as the prior complaints and also alleged that Authentidate violated the federal securities laws by misrepresenting that it possessed certain patentable technology. On July 14, 2006, the District Court dismissed the amended complaint in its entirety; certain claims were dismissed with prejudice and plaintiff was given leave to replead those claims which were not dismissed with prejudice. In August 2006, plaintiff filed a second amended complaint, which did not assert any claims relating to the company’s patents or under the Securities Act of 1933, but which otherwise was substantially similar to the prior complaint. The second amended complaint sought unspecified monetary damages. The company moved to dismiss the second amended complaint on November 13, 2006. On March 26, 2009, the District Court dismissed, with prejudice, the second amended complaint. The lead plaintiff filed an appeal and a hearing in the case was held before the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit on February 3, 2010. On March 12, 2010, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit issued an order affirming in part and vacating and remanding in part the March 26, 2009 order of dismissal. On December 23, 2010, the company and certain of its current and former directors and former officers entered into a settlement. As set forth more fully in the Stipulation of Settlement, if the settlement is given final approval by the District Court, among other things: (i) all claims will be dismissed with prejudice and release; and (ii) a payment of $1.9 million will be made for the benefit of the settlement class, which will be funded by the company’s insurance carrier. On February 2, 2011, the District Court entered an order that preliminarily approved the Stipulation of Settlement; preliminarily certified a settlement class of all persons who purchased the company’s common stock between July 16, 2004 and May 27, 2005, inclusive; and scheduled a hearing for July 20, 2011 to determine whether to grant final approval of the settlement.

In addition to the class action complaints, four purported shareholder derivative actions were filed against certain current and former directors and former officers of the company in June and July 2005 in the S.D.N.Y. These federal court derivative actions were based on substantially the same events and allegations as the original class action complaints and asserted claims that Authentidate was injured by an alleged breach of fiduciary duty, waste, mismanagement, violations of Sarbanes-Oxley, and misappropriation of inside information. The derivative complaints sought, among other things, damages, equitable relief, restitution, and payment of costs and expenses incurred in the litigation (including legal fees). Plaintiffs in the derivative actions entered into a Court-approved stipulation providing for the consolidation of their actions and the selection of Maxine Philips as the lead plaintiff. Plaintiffs filed a consolidated complaint on November 14, 2005, which defendants moved to dismiss on January 13, 2006 on the ground that plaintiffs had not made a proper demand on the Board of Directors. On March 20, 2006, before the motion to dismiss was decided, plaintiffs in the federal court derivative action voluntarily dismissed their complaint without prejudice. On April 6, 2006, the court held a hearing to confirm, among other things, that plaintiffs had not received any payment or other consideration for the dismissal of their claims. At the hearing plaintiffs agreed to file a motion seeking court approval for the dismissal. Plaintiffs filed this motion on April 18, 2006 and the court entered an order dismissing the consolidated complaint on May 5, 2006. Subsequently, on May 25, 2006, the plaintiffs sent a letter to the Board of Directors demanding that it file a derivative suit on behalf of the company which asserts the same claims as the complaint which plaintiffs voluntarily dismissed only weeks earlier.

In addition, we are subject to other claims and litigation arising in the ordinary course of business. Our management considers that any liability from any reasonably foreseeable disposition of such other claims and litigation, individually or in the aggregate, would not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

As provided for under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, we wish to caution shareholders and investors that the following important factors, among others discussed throughout this Report on Form 10-Q and a restated description of the risk factors associated with our business is set forth below. This description includes any material changes to and supersedes the description of the risk factors associated with our business previously disclosed in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2010. You should carefully consider the risks described below, together with all of the following risk factors and the other information included in this report, in considering our business herein as well as the information included in other reports and prospects. The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only ones facing our company. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial also may impair our business operations, financial condition and/or operating results. If any of the matters or events described in the following risks actually occurs, our business, financial condition or results of operations could be harmed. In such case, the trading price of our common stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment due to any of these risks.

Risks Related to Our Business

Failure to increase our revenue and keep our expenses consistent with revenues could prevent us from achieving and maintaining profitability.

We incurred net losses of approximately $9,005,000, $9,367,000, and $15,811,000 for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively. We also had a net loss of approximately $10,493,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2011, including a loss of approximately $5,647,000 related to discontinued operations for our German subsidiary, and an accumulated deficit of approximately $166,203,000 at March 31, 2011. We have expended, and will continue to be required to expend, substantial funds to pursue product development projects, enhance our marketing and sales efforts and to otherwise operate our business. Therefore, we will need to generate higher revenues to achieve and maintain profitability and cannot assure you that we will be profitable in any future period. Our prospects should be considered in light of the difficulties frequently encountered in connection with the establishment of a new business line, which characterizes our business, such as the difficulty in creating a viable market, the significant related development and marketing costs and the overall competitive environment in which we operate. This risk may be more acute in light of our disposition of our other operating segments. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that we will be able to achieve profitable operations in future operating periods. Our business results are likely to remain uncertain as we are unable to reliably predict revenues from our current customers or our ability to derive revenues from our joint venture. Revenue levels achieved from our customers, the mix of products and solutions that we offer, our ability to introduce new products as planned and our ability to reduce and manage our operating expenses will affect our financial results. Consequently, we may not be profitable in any future period.

Our capital requirements have been significant and we may need to raise additional capital to finance our operations.

Our capital requirements have been and will continue to be significant. We have been substantially dependent upon private placements and registered offerings of our securities and on short-term and long-term loans from lending institutions to fund such requirements. We are expending significant amounts of capital to develop, promote and market our software, services and products. Due to these expenditures, we have incurred significant losses to date. We used approximately $8,099,000, $8,144,000, and $14,745,000 in cash for continuing operating activities for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively, and $5,512,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2011. Our available cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities as of March 31, 2011 totaled approximately $2,513,000 and we received estimated net proceeds of approximately $1,300,000 in April 2011 from the sale of our subsidiary. We expect our existing resources and revenues generated from operations and asset sales to satisfy our working capital requirements for at least the next twelve months. No assurances can be given that we will be able to attain revenue levels and support our costs through revenues derived from operations. If our available cash and projected revenue levels are not sufficient to sustain our operations, we will need to raise additional capital to fund operations and to meet our obligations in the future. To meet our financing requirements, we may raise funds through public or private equity offerings, debt financings or strategic alliances. Raising additional funds by issuing equity or convertible debt securities may cause our stockholders to experience substantial dilution in their

ownership interests and new investors may have rights superior to the rights of our other stockholders. Raising additional funds through debt financing, if available, may involve covenants that restrict our business activities and options. There can be no assurance, however, that we will be successful in raising additional capital or securing financing when needed or on terms satisfactory to the company. If we are unable to raise additional capital when required, or on acceptable terms, we will need to reduce costs and operations substantially, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Our future capital requirements will depend on, and could increase substantially as a result of many factors, including:

•

our need to utilize a significant amount of cash to support research and development activities and to make incremental investments in our organization;

•

our ability to achieve targeted gross profit margins and cost management objectives;

•

our ability to reach break-even or profitability;

•

the extent to which we consolidate our facilities and relocate employees and assets;

•

the success of our sales and marketing efforts;

•

the extent and terms of any development, marketing or other arrangements, including our joint venture; and

•

changes in economic, regulatory or competitive conditions, including the current financial crisis.

Our revenues may be affected by changes in technology spending levels.

In the past, unfavorable or uncertain macroeconomic conditions and reduced global technology spending rates have adversely affected the markets in which we operate. Current economic conditions and uncertainty about the recovery could reduce the demand for our products and negatively impact revenues and operating profit. We are unable to predict changes in general macroeconomic conditions and when global spending rates will be affected. Furthermore, even if spending rates increase, we cannot be certain that the market for our products and solutions will be positively impacted. If there are future reductions in either domestic or international spending rates, or if spending rates do not increase, our revenues, operating results and financial condition may be adversely affected.

Ongoing uncertainty in the credit markets and the financial services industry may negatively impact our business, results of operations, financial condition or liquidity.

For the past two years, the credit markets and the financial services industry have been experiencing a period of unprecedented turmoil and upheaval characterized by the bankruptcy, failure, collapse or sale of various financial institutions and an unprecedented level of intervention from the United States federal government. While the ultimate outcome of these events cannot be predicted, they may have a material adverse effect on our liquidity and financial condition if our ability to obtain financing for operations or obtain credit from trade creditors were to be impaired. In addition, the recent economic crisis could also adversely impact our customers’ ability to finance the purchase of our products and solutions, which may negatively impact our business and results of operations.

Healthcare policy changes, including recent laws to reform the U.S. healthcare system, may have a material adverse effect on us.

Healthcare costs have risen significantly over the past decade. There have been, and continue to be, proposals by legislators, regulators, and third-party payors to keep these costs down. Certain proposals, if passed, could impose limitations on the prices we will be able to charge for our products, or the amounts of reimbursement available for our products from governmental agencies or third-party payors. These limitations could have a material adverse effect on our financial position and results of operations.

On March 23, 2010, the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act was signed into law and on March 30, 2010, the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010 was signed into law. Together, the two measures make the most sweeping and fundamental changes to the U.S. healthcare system since the creation of Medicare and Medicaid. The Health Care Reform laws include a large number of health-related provisions to take effect over the next four years, including expanding Medicaid eligibility, requiring most individuals to have health insurance, establishing new regulations on health plans, establishing health insurance exchanges, requiring manufacturers to report payments or other transfers of value made to physicians and teaching hospitals, and modifying certain payment systems to encourage more cost-effective care and a reduction of inefficiencies and waste, including through new tools to address fraud and abuse. Effective in 2013, there will be a 2.3% excise tax on the sale of certain medical devices.

In addition, various healthcare reform proposals have also emerged at the state level. We cannot predict the exact effect newly enacted laws or any future legislation or regulation will have on us. However, the implementation of new legislation and regulation may lower reimbursements for our products, reduce medical procedure volumes and adversely affect our business, possibly materially. In addition, the enacted excise tax may materially and adversely affect our operating expenses and results of operations.

We may need to incur additional costs in our efforts to successfully commercialize the technology supporting our content authentication service.

In July 2007, we entered into a new three-year license agreement with the U.S. Postal Service^® (USPS) to act as a non-exclusive authorized service provider of the USPS Electronic Postmark^® (EPM). Pursuant to this license agreement, the USPS granted the company a non-exclusive, worldwide license to use its applicable trademarks and other intellectual property rights for the EPM service in order to enable us to offer the EPM service directly to the market. The USPS defined and maintained the technical and operational standards for the EPM service, and served as backup verifier for all EPM transactions. Authentidate was the first provider to be authorized in a new standards-based EPM service model created by the USPS to help ensure performance standards and facilitate the development of a multi-provider environment. We operated the EPM service on behalf of the USPS since March 2003, under a strategic alliance agreement that expired on July 31, 2007. This license agreement was effective as of August 1, 2007 and had been extended through December 2010. However, the license agreement was allowed to expire as of December 31, 2010, in accordance with its terms. The USPS has notified the company that it hopes to develop a revised framework for the next generation of the USPS EPM and may revamp the program in the future. The USPS and the company continue to work towards ensuring a smooth transition from the USPS EPM brand. The company will continue to provide customers with uninterrupted content authentication and time and date stamping services utilizing its proprietary intellectual property rights under the Authentidate brand. In March, 2011, the company began to market its content authentication services as AuthentiProof™. In addition, this transition will not impact the performance or capabilities of our other products and solutions, including our suite of Incsrybe® offerings and the telehealth services provided through Express MD™ Solutions. In light of these developments, we may need to incur additional costs in order to commercialize this technology.

We depend on growth in the software as a service market, and lack of growth or contraction in this market could materially adversely affect our sales and financial condition.

Our software and internet solutions compete with other “software as a service” solutions. Demand for our solutions and software offerings is driven by several factors, including an increased focus on protecting business-critical applications, government and industry regulations requiring data protection and integrity, and the growth in the market for software as a service. Segments of the computer and software industry have in the past experienced significant economic downturns and decreases in demand as a result of changing market factors. A change in the market factors that are driving demand for offerings of software as a service could adversely affect our sales, profitability and financial condition.

We depend on third parties for the manufacture and distribution of our telehealth appliance, which may result in delays and quality-control issues.

We do not own or lease any manufacturing facilities. Accordingly, in order to market our telehealth solution, ExpressMD Solutions purchases finished appliances from an unaffiliated supplier. In addition, our joint venture entity uses unaffiliated third parties to provide distribution services for this solution. If the agreements with these third parties are terminated or if they do not perform their obligations under such agreements, it could take several months to establish and qualify alternative manufacturing and distribution partners for our products and we may not be able to fulfill our customers’ orders in a timely manner. At the present time we believe that if existing third party relationships terminate, alternative providers are available on commercially reasonable terms. However, there can be no assurance that the future production capacity of our current manufacturer will be sufficient to satisfy our requirements or that alternative providers of manufacturing or distribution services will be available on commercially reasonable terms, or at all. The failure to identify suitable alternative manufacturers or distributors could adversely impact our customer relationships and our financial condition. In addition, due to our use of third-party manufacturers and distributors, we do not have control over the timing of product shipments. Delays in shipment could result in the deferral or cancellation of purchases of our products, which would harm our results of operations in any particular quarter. Net revenue for a period may be lower than predicted if large orders forecasted for that period are delayed or are not realized, which could impact cash flow or result in a decline in our stock price.

We have been named as a party to several class action and derivative action lawsuits, and we may be named in additional litigation, all of which could require significant management time and attention and result in significant legal expenses. An unfavorable outcome in one or more of these lawsuits could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

As described in detail in our periodic reports filed with the SEC, several purported class action complaints were filed in federal court alleging our company and certain of our current and former directors and former officers violated the federal securities laws. Subsequently, four purported shareholder derivative actions were filed against certain of our current and former directors and former officers based on allegations substantially similar to those set forth in the purported class actions. The expense of defending such litigation may be substantial and the time required to defend the actions could divert management’s attention from the day-to-day

operations of our business, which could adversely affect our business, results of operations and cash flows. In addition, an unfavorable outcome in such litigation could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and cash flows. As previously reported in March 2009, the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (the “District Court”) dismissed with prejudice the second amended complaint that had been filed in a shareholder class action against the company and certain current and former directors and former officers. On March 16, 2010, we reported that the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit issued an order affirming in part and vacating and remanding in part the March 2009 decision of the District Court. On December 23, 2010, the company and certain of its current and former directors and former officers entered into a settlement. As set forth more fully in the Stipulation of Settlement, if the settlement is given final approval by the District Court, among other things: (i) all claims will be dismissed with prejudice and release; and (ii) a payment of $1.9 million will be made for the benefit of the settlement class, which will be funded by the company’s insurance carrier. On February 2, 2011, the District Court entered an order that preliminarily approved the Stipulation of Settlement; preliminarily certified a settlement class of all persons who purchased the company’s common stock between July 16, 2004 and May 27, 2005, inclusive; and scheduled a hearing for July 20, 2011 to determine whether to grant final approval of the settlement.

Our success is dependent on the performance of our management and the cooperation, performance and retention of our executive officers and key employees.

Our business and operations are substantially dependent on the performance of our senior management team and executive officers. If our management team is unable to perform it may adversely impact our results of operations and financial condition. We do not maintain “key person” life insurance on any of our executive officers. The loss of one or several key employees could seriously harm our business. Any reorganization or reduction in the size of our employee base could harm our ability to attract and retain other valuable employees critical to the success of our business.

If we lose key personnel or fail to integrate replacement personnel successfully, our ability to manage our business could be impaired.

Our future success depends upon the continued service of our key management, technical, sales, finance, and other critical personnel. Other than with respect to employment agreements that we entered into with our CEO and CFO, our key personnel do not have employment agreements and we cannot assure you that we will be able to retain them. Key personnel have left our company in the past and there likely will be additional departures of key personnel from time to time in the future. The loss of any key employee could result in significant disruptions to our operations, including adversely affecting the timeliness of product releases, the successful implementation and completion of company initiatives, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures and our internal control over financial reporting, and the results of our operations. In addition, hiring, training, and successfully integrating replacement sales and other personnel could be time consuming, may cause additional disruptions to our operations, and may be unsuccessful, which could negatively impact future revenues.

If the carrying value of our long-lived assets is not recoverable, an impairment loss must be recognized which would adversely affect our financial results.

We evaluate our long-lived assets, including property and equipment, goodwill, acquired product rights, and other intangible assets, whenever events or circumstances occur which indicate that these assets might be impaired. Goodwill is evaluated annually for impairment at the end of each fiscal year, regardless of events and circumstances. As of March 31, 2011, we had approximately $50,000 of goodwill. As of December 31, 2010, we had approximately $1,941,000 of goodwill principally from our acquisition of our German subsidiary, Authentidate International, AG. As discussed more fully in Note 7 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, on April 1, 2011 we completed the sale of our German subsidiary and information, including goodwill, related to such subsidiary has been presented as discontinued operations for all periods presented. In connection with the sale of the subsidiary, we recorded an estimated non-cash loss of approximately $5,283,000 related to the goodwill recorded in connection with the acquisition of this subsidiary in 2002. The company initially recorded the estimated loss related to its German subsidiary as a non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $5,400,000 during the quarter ended December 31, 2010 based primarily on lowered expectations for growth in future revenues and cash flows, certain unsolicited market information regarding the business and uncertainty regarding the recovery in the market for comparable assets. We will continue to evaluate the recoverability of the carrying amount of our long-lived assets, and we may incur substantial impairment charges, which could adversely affect our financial results.

Developing and implementing new or updated software and services and other product offerings may take longer and cost more than expected.

We rely on a combination of internal development, strategic relationships, licensing and acquisitions to develop our software and services. The cost of developing new software, services and other product offerings, such as Inscrybe Healthcare and related modules, and our telehealth offering is inherently difficult to estimate. Our development and implementation of proposed software, services or

other product offerings may take longer than originally expected, require greater investment of cash resources than initially expected, require more testing than originally anticipated and require the acquisition of additional personnel and other resources. Accordingly, we expect to face substantial uncertainties with respect to the performance and market acceptance of new software and services and other product offerings. If we are unable to develop new or updated software, services or other product offerings on a timely basis and implement them without significant disruptions to the existing systems and processes of our customers, we may lose potential revenues and harm our relationships with current or potential customers.

The success of any of our product acquisition and licensing activities is subject to uncertainty and any completed acquisitions or licenses may reduce our earnings, be difficult to integrate, not perform as expected or require us to obtain additional financing.

We regularly evaluate selective acquisitions and look to continue to enhance our product line by acquiring rights to additional products and services. Such acquisitions may be carried out through the purchase of assets, joint ventures and licenses or by acquiring other companies. However, we cannot assure you that we will be able to complete acquisitions or in-licensing arrangements that meet our target criteria on satisfactory terms, if at all. Successfully integrating a product or service acquisition or in-licensing arrangement can be a lengthy and complex process. The diversion of our management’s attention and any delays or difficulties encountered in connection with any of our acquisitions or arrangements could result in the disruption of our ongoing business or inconsistencies in standards, controls, procedures and policies that could negatively affect our ability to maintain relationships with customers, suppliers, employees and others with whom we have business dealings. In addition, other companies, including those with substantially greater resources than ours, may compete with us for the acquisition of product or in-licensing candidates and approved products, resulting in the possibility that we devote resources to potential acquisitions or arrangements that are never completed. If we do engage in any such acquisition or arrangement, we will incur a variety of costs, and we may never realize the anticipated benefits of the acquisition or arrangement in light of those costs. If we fail to realize the expected benefits from acquisitions or arrangements we may consummate in the future, whether as a result of unidentified risks, integration difficulties, regulatory setbacks or other events, our business, results of operations and financial condition could be adversely affected.

In addition, our product acquisition and licensing activities may require us to obtain additional debt or equity financing, resulting in increased debt obligations or dilution of ownership to our existing stockholders, as applicable. Therefore, we may not be able to finance acquisitions on terms satisfactory to us, if at all.

New or updated software, services and product offerings will not become profitable unless they achieve sufficient levels of market acceptance, which may require significant efforts and costs.

There can be no assurance that customers and potential customers will accept from us new or updated software, services and other products. The future results of our business will depend, in significant part, on the success of our software, services or other product offerings. Current and potential customers may choose to use similar products and services offered by our competitors or may not purchase new or updated software, services or products, especially when they are initially offered and if they require changes in equipment or workflow. For software, services and products we are developing or may develop in the future, including through our ExpressMD joint venture, there can be no assurance that we will attract sufficient customers or that such offerings will generate sufficient revenues to cover their associated development, marketing and maintenance costs. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that any pricing strategy that we implement for any new software and services or other product offerings will be economically viable or acceptable to the target markets. Failure to achieve broad penetration in target markets with respect to new or updated software, services and product offerings could have a material adverse effect on our business prospects. Further, achieving market acceptance for new or updated software, services and product offerings is likely to require substantial marketing efforts and expenditure of significant funds to create awareness and demand by potential customers.

We do not have patents on all the technology we use, which could harm our competitive position.

Presently, we have one issued U.S. patent. We also have been granted a license to one issued U.S. patent and one pending patent application by Authentidate International, A.G. Some of the technology embodied in some of our current products cannot be patented. We have registered the trademarks “Authentidate”, “Inscrybe,” “Inscrybe Office” and “CareCert” in the U.S., the trademark “Authentidate” in Canada and the European Community, “Inscrybe” in the European Community and Canada, “Inscrybe Office,” and a number of other trademarks as Madrid Protocol international registrations. We continue to take steps to protect our intellectual property rights including filing additional trademark and patent applications where appropriate, including for the trademark “AuthentiProof”. We rely on confidentiality agreements with our key employees to the extent we deem it to be necessary. We further intend to file patent applications for any new products we may develop, to the extent that we believe that any technology included in such products is patentable. There can be no assurance that any patents in fact, will be issued or that any such patents that do issue will be effective to protect our products and services from duplication by other manufacturers or developers or to prevent our competitors from offering similar products and services.

Other companies operating within our business segments may independently develop substantially equivalent proprietary information or otherwise obtain access to our know-how, much of which is maintained as trade secrets. In addition, there can be no assurance that we will be able to afford the expense of any litigation which may be necessary to enforce our rights under any patent. Although we believe that the products we sell do not and will not infringe upon the patents or violate the proprietary rights of others, it is possible that such infringement or violation has occurred or may occur. We have investigated patents held by third parties of which we are aware and believe that our products and services do not infringe on the claims of these patents. Although we have not received notice of any other claims that our products or services are infringing, we cannot provide any assurances that our products and services do not infringe upon any third party patents, including the patents we have investigated.

In the event that products we sell or services we provide are deemed to infringe upon the patents or proprietary rights of others, we could be required to modify our products and/or services or obtain a license for the manufacture, use and/or sale of such products and services. There can be no assurance that, in such an event, we would be able to do so in a timely manner, upon acceptable terms and conditions, or at all, and the failure to do any of the foregoing could have a material adverse effect upon our business. Moreover, there can be no assurance that we will have the financial or other resources necessary to defend against a patent infringement or proprietary rights violation action. In addition, if our products, services or proposed products or services are deemed to infringe upon the patents or proprietary rights of others, we could, under certain circumstances, become liable for damages or subject to an injunction, which could also have a material adverse effect on our business.

Because we currently derive a majority of our revenues from a few software and service offerings, any decline in demand for these offerings could severely harm our ability to generate revenues.

We currently derive a majority of our revenues from a limited number of hosted software and service offerings. In addition, our focus on building our business is concentrated on markets for software and services where content integrity, workflow automation, electronic signatures, time and date stamping and web-based services are important to customers. As a result, we are particularly vulnerable to fluctuations in demand for these offerings, whether as a result of competition, product obsolescence, technological change, customer spending, or other factors. If our revenues derived from our software and service offerings were to decline significantly, our business and operating results would be adversely affected. As a result, if our relationships with significant customers were disrupted we could lose a significant percentage of our anticipated revenues which could have material adverse effect on our business.

Some of our software and service offerings have long and unpredictable sales cycles, which may impact our quarterly operating results.

Transactions for some of our software and service offerings require customers to undertake customized installations to integrate the solutions into their legacy systems and require them to modify existing business practices. The period from our initial contact with a potential customer until the execution of an agreement is difficult to predict and can be in excess of six months. The sales cycles for these transactions can be long and unpredictable due to a number of uncertainties such as:

•

customers’ budgetary constraints;

•

the need to educate potential customers about our software and service offerings;

•

the timing of customers’ budget cycles;

•

delays caused by customers’ internal review processes;

•

customers’ willingness to invest resources and modify their network infrastructures to take advantage of our offerings; and

•

for sales to government customers, governmental regulatory approval and purchasing requirements.

We are unable to control or influence many of these factors. Further, we have experienced delays in the pace of adoption and use by our customers of our transaction-based offerings, such as Inscrybe Healthcare, which has adversely affected our earnings. We may experience similar delays with our other products and services and products and services currently under development. During the sales cycle and the implementation period, we may expend substantial time, effort and money preparing contract proposals, negotiating contracts and implementing solutions without receiving any related revenue. In addition, many of our expenses are relatively fixed in the short term, including personnel costs and technology and infrastructure costs. Accordingly, our inability to generate sufficient revenues from these offerings has a direct impact on our results of operations.

The failure to properly manage our growth could cause our business to lose money.

We are using our sales and marketing efforts in order to develop and pursue existing and potential market opportunities. This growth is expected to place a significant demand on management and operational resources. In order to manage growth effectively, we

must implement and improve our operational systems and controls on a timely basis. If we fail to implement these systems and controls, our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows may be materially and adversely affected.

Our software and web-based services and web site may be subject to intentional disruption.

Although we believe we have sufficient controls in place to prevent intentional disruptions, such as software viruses specifically designed to impede the performance of our software and web-based services, we may be affected by such efforts in the future. Further, despite the implementation of security measures, this infrastructure or other systems that we interface with, including the Internet and related systems, may be vulnerable to physical break-ins, hackers, improper employee or contractor access, programming errors, attacks by third parties or similar disruptive problems, resulting in the potential misappropriation of our proprietary information or interruptions of our services. Any compromise of our security, whether as a result of our own systems or systems that they interface with, could substantially disrupt our operations, harm our reputation and reduce demand for our services.

Performance problems with our systems or system failures could cause us to lose business or incur liabilities.

Our customer satisfaction and our business could be harmed if we experience transmission delays or failures or loss of data in the systems we use to provide services to our customers, including transaction-related services. These systems are complex and, despite testing and quality control, we cannot be certain that problems will not occur or that they will be detected and corrected promptly if they do occur. In providing these services, we rely on internal systems as well as communications and hosting services provided by third parties, such as the Internet. To operate without interruption, both we and the service providers we use must guard against:

•

damage from fire, power loss and other natural disasters;

•

communications failures;

•

software and hardware errors, failures or crashes;

•

security breaches, computer viruses and similar disruptive problems; and

•

other potential interruptions.

We have experienced periodic system interruptions in the past, and we cannot guarantee that they will not occur again. In the event of a catastrophic event at one of our data centers or any third party facility we use, we may experience an extended period of system unavailability, which could negatively impact our business. Further, if such an event caused the loss of stored data, it could have a material adverse impact on our business or cause us to incur material liabilities. Although we maintain insurance for our business, we cannot guarantee that our insurance will be adequate to compensate us for all losses that may occur or that this coverage will continue to be available on acceptable terms or in sufficient amounts.

In addition, some of our web-based services may, at times, be required to accommodate higher than expected volumes of traffic. At those times, we may experience slower response times or system failures. Any sustained or repeated interruptions or disruptions in these systems or slow down in their response times could damage our relationships with customers. Further, the Internet has experienced, and is likely to continue to experience, significant growth in the number of users and the amount of traffic. If the Internet continues to experience increased usage, the Internet infrastructure may be unable to support the demands placed on it which could harm its reliability and performance. Any significant interruptions in our services or increases in response time could result in a loss of potential or existing users of services and, if sustained or repeated, could reduce the attractiveness of our services.

We are subject to product liability risks associated with the production, marketing and sale of products used in the healthcare industry.

The production, marketing and sale of devices used in the health-care industry have inherent risks of liability in the event of product failure or claim of harm caused by product operation. Furthermore, even meritless claims of product liability may be costly to defend against. The commercialization of the telehealth device exposes us to such claims. These types of product liability claims may result in decreased demand for this product, injury to our reputation, related litigation costs; and substantial monetary awards to plaintiffs. Although we currently maintain product liability insurance, we may not have sufficient insurance coverage, and we may not be able to obtain sufficient coverage at a reasonable cost. Our inability to obtain product liability insurance at an acceptable cost or to otherwise protect against potential product liability claims could inhibit the commercialization of any products that we develop. If we are sued for any injury caused by our products or processes, then our liability could exceed our product liability insurance coverage and our total assets.

We need to comply with ongoing regulatory requirements applicable to our telehealth product and our ability to generate revenue from this product is subject to our ability to obtain acceptable prices or an adequate level of reimbursement from payors of healthcare costs.

Our telehealth product is a medical device that is subject to extensive regulation in the United States. Unless an exemption applies, each medical device that we wish to market in the United States must receive either 510(k) clearance or premarket approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, or the FDA, before the product can be sold. Either process can be lengthy and expensive. The FDA’s 510(k) clearance procedure, also known as “premarket notification,” is the process we have used for our current telehealth product. The regulatory clearance for our telehealth product provides for its use for its intended purposes. In addition, the manufacturing, labeling, packaging, adverse event reporting, storage, advertising, promotion, distribution and record-keeping for approved products are subject to extensive regulation. If the FDA determines that our promotional materials or activities constitute promotion of an unapproved use or we otherwise fail to comply with other FDA regulations, we may be subject to regulatory enforcement actions, including a warning letter, injunction, seizure, civil fine, suspensions, loss of regulatory clearance, product recalls or product seizures. In the more egregious cases, criminal sanctions, civil penalties, or disgorgement of profits are possible. The subsequent discovery of previously unknown problems may also result in restrictions on the marketing of our products, and could include voluntary or mandatory recall or withdrawal of products from the market. Further, we cannot predict the likelihood, nature or extent of adverse government regulation that may arise from future legislation or administrative action. If we are not able to maintain regulatory compliance, we will not be permitted to market our products and our business would suffer.

In addition, our ability to commercialize our telehealth product successfully will depend in part on the extent to which appropriate coverage and reimbursement levels for the cost of this product are obtained by us or by our direct customers from governmental authorities, private health insurers and other organizations. The ability of customers to obtain appropriate reimbursement for their products and services from private and governmental payors is critical to the success of medical technology device companies as the availability of reimbursement affects which products customers purchase and the prices they are willing to pay. The cost containment measures that healthcare payors and providers are instituting and the effect of any healthcare reform could materially and adversely affect our ability to generate revenues from this product and our profitability. In addition, given ongoing federal and state government initiatives directed at lowering the total cost of healthcare, the United States Congress and state legislatures will likely continue to focus on healthcare reform and the reform of the Medicare and Medicaid payment systems. While we cannot predict whether any proposed cost-containment measures will be adopted, the announcement or adoption of these proposals could reduce the price that we receive for our telehealth product in the future. We cannot predict the outcomes of any of legislative or regulatory efforts at reducing costs of providing healthcare and regulatory changes in this regard may have a material adverse effect on our business.

If we are unable to generate sufficient demand for our current telehealth product, we may not be able to recover our inventory investments. Further, modifications to our current telehealth product may require new marketing clearances or approvals or require us to cease marketing or recall the modified products until such clearances or approvals are obtained.

In connection with our manufacturing and sales plans for the ExpressMD Solutions telehealth service, we have purchased certain components and contract manufacturing services for the production of the monitoring appliance. Our ability to recover our investment in building inventories of our current telehealth products is subject to risks. If we are unable to generate sufficient demand for this product, we may not be able to recover our costs in acquiring these assets. In the event that this occurs, we may need to write-off a material portion of the value of these assets and our financial condition may be adversely affected. As of March 31, 2011, total inventory was valued at approximately $4.7 million.

Further, any modification to an FDA-cleared medical device that could significantly affect its safety or effectiveness, or that would constitute a major change or modification in its intended use, requires a new FDA 510(k) clearance or, possibly, a premarket approval. The FDA requires every manufacturer to make its own determination as to whether a modification requires a new 510(k) clearance or premarket approval, but the FDA may review and disagree with any decision reached by the manufacturer. In the future, we may make modifications to our telehealth products and, in appropriate circumstances, determine that new clearance or approval is unnecessary. Regulatory authorities may disagree with our decisions not to seek new clearance or approval and may require us to obtain clearance or approval for modifications to our products. If that were to occur for a previously cleared or approved product, we may be required to cease marketing or recall the modified device until we obtain the necessary clearance or approval. Under these circumstances, we may also be subject to significant regulatory fines or other penalties. If any of the foregoing were to occur, we may be unable to recover the cost of our investments in our telehealth business and our financial condition and results of operations could be negatively impacted.

If our suppliers for our telehealth product fails to comply with the FDA’s Quality System Regulation, or QSR, and other applicable postmarket requirements, our manufacturing operations could be disrupted, our product sales and profitability could suffer, and we may be subject to a wide variety of FDA enforcement actions.

After a device is placed on the market, numerous regulatory requirements apply. We are subject to inspection and marketing surveillance by the FDA to determine our compliance with all regulatory requirements. Our failure to comply with applicable regulatory requirements could result in the FDA or a court instituting a wide variety of enforcement actions against us, including a public warning letter; a recall of products; fines or civil penalties; seizure or detention of our products; withdrawing 510(k) clearance

already granted to us; and criminal prosecution. The manufacturing processes of some of our suppliers must comply with the FDA’s Quality System Regulation, or QSR, which governs the methods used in, and the facilities and controls used for, the design, testing, manufacture, control, quality assurance, installation, servicing, labeling, packaging, storage and shipping of medical devices. The FDA enforces the QSR through unannounced inspections. If one of our suppliers fails a QSR inspection, or if a corrective action plan adopted by a supplier is not sufficient, the FDA may bring an enforcement action, and our operations could be disrupted and our manufacturing delayed. We are also subject to the FDA’s general prohibition against promoting our products for unapproved or “off-label” uses, the FDA’s adverse event reporting requirements and the FDA’s reporting requirements for field correction or product removals. The FDA has recently placed increased emphasis on its scrutiny of compliance with the QSR and these other postmarket requirements. If we or one of our suppliers violate the FDA’s requirements or fail to take adequate corrective action in response to any significant compliance issue raised by the FDA, the FDA can take various enforcement actions which could cause our product sales and profitability to suffer.

Our software and services and other product offerings may not be accepted by the market, which would seriously harm our business.

Demand and market acceptance for our currently available software and service and other product offerings remain subject to a high level of uncertainty. Achieving widespread acceptance of these or future offerings will continue to require substantial marketing efforts and the expenditure of significant funds to create and maintain brand recognition and customer demand for such offerings. Demand for our software, services and other product offerings depend on, among other things:

•

the perceived ability of our offerings to address real customer problems;

•

the perceived quality, price, ease-of-use and interoperability of our offerings as compared to our competitors’ offerings;

•

the market’s perception of the ease or difficulty in deploying our software or services, especially in complex network environments;

•

the continued evolution of electronic commerce as a viable means of conducting business;

•

market acceptance and use of new technologies and standards;

•

the ability of network infrastructures to support an increasing number of users and services;

•

the pace of technological change and our ability to keep up with these changes; and

•

general economic conditions, which influence how much money our customers and potential customers are willing to allocate to their information technology budgets.

There can be no assurance that adequate marketing arrangements will be made and continued for our software and services and there can be no assurance that any of these offerings will ever achieve or maintain widespread market acceptance or that such offerings will be profitable.

If we cannot continuously enhance our software and web-based service offerings in response to rapid changes in the market, our business will be harmed.

The software-based services industry and computer industry are characterized by extensive research and development efforts which result in the frequent introduction of new products and services which render existing products and services obsolete. Our ability to compete successfully in the future will depend in large part on our ability to maintain a technically competent research and development staff and our ability to adapt to technological changes in the industry and enhance and improve our software and web-based service offerings and successfully develop and market new offerings that meet the changing needs of our customers. Although we are dedicated to continued improvement of our offerings with a view towards satisfying market needs with the most advanced capabilities, there can be no assurance that we will be able to continue to do so on a regular basis and remain competitive with products offered by other manufacturers. At the present time, we do not have a targeted level of expenditures for research and development. We will evaluate all opportunities but believe the majority of our research and development will be devoted to enhancements of our existing software and web-based services.

If our software and web-based service offerings are not competitive, our business will suffer.

We are engaged in the highly competitive businesses of developing software and web-based workflow management services and telehealth solutions. These markets are continually evolving and, in some cases, subject to rapid technological change. Many of our competitors have greater financial, technical, product development, marketing and other resources than we do. These organizations may be better known than we are and have more customers than we do. We cannot provide assurance that we will be able to compete successfully against these organizations. We believe that the principal competitive factors affecting our markets include performance, ease of use, quality/reliability of our offerings, scalability, features and functionality, price and customer service and support. There can be no assurance that we will be able to successfully incorporate these factors into our software and web-based services and

compete against current or future competitors or that competitive pressure we face will not harm our business. If we are unable to develop and market products to compete with the products of competitors, our business will be materially and adversely affected.

Our business, including Inscrybe Healthcare and our telehealth appliance and service and our electronic signing solutions are relatively new business lines and although the level of competition for these offerings is uncertain at this point in time, the field of software-based solutions in which we compete is highly competitive. There can be no assurances, however, that any of our offerings will achieve market acceptance.

We also expect that competition will increase as a result of industry consolidations and the formation of new companies with new, innovative offerings. Current and potential competitors have established or may establish cooperative relationships among themselves or with third parties to increase the ability of their software and service offerings to address the needs of our prospective customers. Accordingly, it is possible that new competitors or alliances among competitors may emerge and rapidly acquire significant market share. Increased competition is likely to result in price reductions, reduced operating margins and loss of market share, any of which could harm our business.

Our software and web-based services are complex and are operated in a wide variety of computer configurations, which could result in errors or product failures.

Our software and web-based services are complex and may contain undetected errors, failures or bugs that may arise when they are first introduced or when new versions are released. These offerings may be used in large-scale computing environments with different operating systems, system management software and equipment and networking configurations, which may cause errors or failures in our software or services or may expose undetected errors, failures or bugs in such offerings. Our customers’ computer environments are often characterized by a wide variety of configurations that make pre-release testing for programming or compatibility errors difficult and time-consuming. Despite testing by us and by others, errors, failures or bugs may not be found in new products or releases after commencement of commercial use. Errors, failures or bugs in our offerings could result in negative publicity, returns, loss of or delay in market acceptance of our software or services or claims by customers or others. Alleviating these problems could require significant expenditures of our capital and resources and could cause interruptions, delays or cessation of our licenses which could cause us to lose existing or potential customers and would adversely affect our financial conditions, results of operations and cash flows. Most of our license agreements with customers contain provisions designed to limit our exposure to potential product liability claims. It is possible, however, that these provisions may not prove effective in limiting our liability.

We have a significant amount of net operating loss carry forwards which we may not be able to utilize in certain circumstances or which may become limited as a result of this offering.

At June 30, 2010, we had net operating loss, or NOL, carry forwards for federal income tax purposes of approximately $126,000,000 available to offset future taxable income. Under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code, following an “ownership change,” special limitations apply to the use by a “loss corporation” of its (i) NOL carry forwards arising before the ownership change and (ii) net unrealized built-in losses (if such losses existed immediately before the ownership change and exceed a statutory threshold amount) recognized during the five years following the ownership change ((i) and (ii) are referred to collectively as the “Applicable Tax Attributes”). After an ownership change, the amount of the loss corporation’s taxable income for each post-change taxable year that may be offset by the Applicable Tax Attributes is limited to the product of the “long-term tax-exempt rate” (published by the IRS for the month of the ownership change) multiplied by the value of the loss corporation’s stock (the “Section 382 Limitation”). To the extent that the loss corporation’s Section 382 Limitation in a given taxable year exceeds its taxable income for the year, that excess increases the Section 382 Limitation in future taxable years.

Risks Related to Our Common Stock

Our stock price is volatile and could decline.

The price of our common stock has been, and is likely to continue to be, volatile. Our stock price during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010 traded as low as $0.38 per share and as high as $1.81 per share and during the nine months ended March 31, 2011, our common stock traded within a range of $0.38 to $0.86. We cannot assure you that your initial investment in our common stock will not fluctuate significantly. The market price of our common stock may fluctuate significantly in response to a number of factors, some of which are beyond our control, including:

•

quarterly variations in our operating results;

•

announcements we make regarding significant contracts, acquisitions, dispositions, strategic partnerships, or joint ventures;

•

additions or departures of key personnel;

•

the introduction of competitive offerings by existing or new competitors;

•

uncertainty about and customer confidence in the current economic conditions and outlook;

•

reduced demand for any given software or web-based service offering; and

•

sales of our common stock.

In addition, the stock market in general, including companies whose stock is listed on The NASDAQ Capital Market, have experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations that have often been disproportionate to the operating performance of these companies. Broad market and industry factors may negatively affect the market price of our common stock, regardless of our actual operating performance.

Since we have not paid dividends on our common stock, you may not receive income from this investment.

We have not paid any dividends on our common stock since our inception and do not contemplate or anticipate paying any dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future. Earnings, if any, will be used to finance the development and expansion of our business.

Trading in our stock over the last twelve months has been limited, so investors may not be able to sell as much stock as they want at prevailing prices.

The average daily trading volume in our common stock for the twelve months ended March 31, 2011 was approximately 89,000 shares. If limited trading in our stock continues, it may be difficult for investors to sell their shares in the public market at any given time at prevailing prices. Moreover, the market price for shares of our common stock may be made more volatile because of the relatively low volume of trading in our common stock. When trading volume is low, significant price movement can be caused by the trading in a relatively small number of shares. Volatility in our common stock could cause stockholders to incur substantial losses.

Authentidate is currently not in compliance with The NASDAQ Capital Market $1.00 minimum bid price requirement and failure to regain and maintain compliance with this standard could result in delisting and adversely affect the market price and liquidity of our common stock.

Our common stock is currently traded on The NASDAQ Capital Market under the symbol “ADAT”. If we fail to meet any of the continued listing standards of The NASDAQ Capital Market, our common stock will be delisted from The NASDAQ Capital Market. These continued listing standards include specifically enumerated criteria, such as a $1.00 minimum closing bid price. On May 26, 2010, we received a letter from The NASDAQ Stock Market (“NASDAQ”) advising that the company did not meet the minimum $1.00 per share bid price requirement for continued inclusion on The NASDAQ Capital Market pursuant to NASDAQ Marketplace Listing Rule 5550(a)(2). The letter stated that the company had until November 22, 2010 to regain compliance. On November 23, 2010, we received notice from NASDAQ stating that it had granted the company an additional 180 days to regain compliance with its $1.00 minimum bid price requirement under NASDAQ Listing Rule 5550(a)(2). In its November 23, 2010 notification, NASDAQ stated that although we had not regained compliance with the listing rule, we were eligible for the second grace period since we satisfied the other applicable requirements for continued listing on the NASDAQ Capital Market. On April 28, 2011, we received notice from NASDAQ that, as a result of our common stock closing at $1.00 per share or more for a minimum of 10 consecutive trading days, we have regained compliance with the minimum bid price requirement for continued listing on the NASDAQ Capital Market.

If our common stock were to be delisted from The NASDAQ Capital Market, trading of our common stock most likely will be conducted in the over-the-counter market on an electronic bulletin board established for unlisted securities such as the OTC Bulletin Board. Such trading will reduce the market liquidity of our common stock. As a result, an investor would find it more difficult to dispose of, or obtain accurate quotations for the price of, our common stock. If our common stock is delisted from The NASDAQ Capital Market and the trading price remains below $5.00 per share, trading in our common stock might also become subject to the requirements of certain rules promulgated under the Exchange Act, which require additional disclosure by broker-dealers in connection with any trade involving a stock defined as a “penny stock” (generally, any equity security not listed on a national securities exchange or quoted on Nasdaq that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions). Many brokerage firms are reluctant to recommend low-priced stocks to their clients. Moreover, various regulations and policies restrict the ability of shareholders to borrow against or “margin” low-priced stocks, and declines in the stock price below certain levels may trigger unexpected margin calls. Additionally, because brokers’ commissions on low-priced stocks generally represent a higher percentage of the stock price than commissions on higher priced stocks, the current price of the common stock can result in an individual shareholder paying transaction costs that represent a higher percentage of total share value than would be the case if our share price were higher. This factor may also limit the willingness of institutions to purchase our common stock. Finally, the additional burdens imposed upon broker-dealers by these requirements could discourage broker-dealers from facilitating trades in our common stock, which could severely limit the market liquidity of the stock and the ability of investors to trade our common stock.

Additional financings could result in dilution to existing stockholders and otherwise adversely impact the rights of our common stockholders.

Additional financings that we may require in the future will dilute the percentage ownership interests of our stockholders and may adversely affect our earnings and net book value per share. In addition, we may not be able to secure any such additional financing on terms acceptable to us, if at all. We have the authority to issue additional shares of common stock and preferred stock, as well as additional classes or series of warrants or debt obligations which may be convertible into any one or more classes or series of ownership interests. We are authorized to issue 75 million shares of common stock and 5 million shares of preferred stock. Subject to compliance with the requirements of the NASDAQ Stock Market, such securities may be issued without the approval or other consent of our stockholders.

We filed a “shelf” registration statement on Form S-3 with the Securities and Exchange Commission in August 2009, which was declared effective by the Commission on September 30, 2009. Under this registration statement, we may sell, from time to time in one or more public offerings, shares of our common stock, shares of our preferred stock, debt securities or warrants to purchase common stock, preferred stock or debt securities, or any combination of such securities. After giving effect to our registered direct offering completed in December 2009, there is approximately $36 million available for future issuances under this registration statement, subject to SEC limitations. This disclosure shall not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy the securities, nor shall there by any sale of these securities in any jurisdiction in which an offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of such jurisdiction. Any offer of the securities will be solely by means of the prospectus included in the registration statement and one or more prospectus supplements that will be issued at the time of the offering.

In the event that any future financing should be in the form of, be convertible into or exchangeable for, equity securities, and upon the conversion or exercise of such securities, investors may experience additional dilution. Moreover, we may issue undesignated shares of preferred stock, the terms of which may be fixed by our Board of Directors and which terms may be preferential to the interests of our common stockholders. We have issued preferred stock in the past, and our Board of Directors has the authority, without stockholder approval, to create and issue one or more additional series of such preferred stock and to determine the voting, dividend and other rights of holders of such preferred stock. Any debt financing, if available, may involve restrictive covenants that impact our ability to conduct our business. The issuance of any of such series of preferred stock or debt securities may have an adverse effect on the holders of common stock.

If we are required to redeem the shares of our Series C Preferred Stock, our financial condition may be adversely affected.

In connection with our recent private placement, we filed with the Secretary of State of Delaware a Certificate of Designations, Preferences and Rights and Number of Shares of Series C 15% convertible redeemable preferred stock, or the Series C Designation. The Series C Designation provides for the mandatory redemption of all outstanding shares of Series C preferred stock upon their stated maturity date, which is the 18 month anniversary of the original issue date, unless prior to such date, our shareholders approve the conversion of the shares of Series C preferred stock into shares of our common stock. If we are required to redeem the shares of Series C preferred stock, we will be required to pay to the holders of the shares of Series C preferred stock a total redemption price equal to 102.5% of the stated value of the Series C shares, plus dividends, which would be $2,500,000. In addition, if at the maturity date of the Series C preferred stock, any shares of our Series B preferred stock remain outstanding, we will be required to redeem all such outstanding shares of Series B preferred stock immediately prior to the redemption of the Series C preferred stock. There are currently 28,000 shares of Series B preferred stock outstanding and the total redemption payment for the Series B preferred stock is equal to $700,000 plus any accrued, but unpaid dividends thereon as of such redemption date. Accordingly, the redemption of these securities may have an adverse effect on our cash position.

The number of shares of our common stock outstanding has increased substantially as a result of our private placement, and the exercise or conversion of the warrants and shares of preferred stock issued in this private placement could result in further dilution to holders of our common stock. Certain purchasers in this private placement beneficially own significant blocks of our common stock. Upon registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, these shares will be generally available for resale in the public market.

Upon the closing of our private placement on October 13, 2010, we issued to a group of institutional and other accredited investors a total of 7,500,000 shares of our common stock, plus 1,250,000 shares of Series C preferred stock, which are convertible into an maximum of 6,125,000 shares of common stock at the initial conversion price of $0.40 (including all shares issuable in lieu of cash dividends for the 18 month term) and common stock warrants to purchase a total of 6,250,000 additional shares of common stock. The issuance of these securities resulted in substantial dilution to stockholders who held our common stock prior to the private placement. Further, the conversion of the shares of Series C preferred stock and exercise of warrants issued in this private placement

may result in further dilution to the holders of our common stock. As of March 31, 2011, the number of shares issued to the purchasers in the private placement represents approximately 16.3% of our outstanding common stock, without giving effect to the conversion of the shares of Series C preferred stock or the exercise of the common stock warrants. The conversion of the shares of Series C preferred stock is subject to the approval of our stockholders in accordance with applicable Nasdaq requirements and under the purchase agreement with the investors, we are obligated to seek shareholder approval for the conversion of the shares of Series C preferred stock. As a result, these stockholders, if acting together, may have significant influence over the outcome of any stockholder vote, other than any proposal to approve the conversion of such shares, including the election of directors and other significant business matters that require stockholder approval. Such other significant business matters could include, for example, the approval of mergers or other business combination transactions.

Under the registration rights agreement entered into in connection with the private placement, we filed a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC, covering the resale of the 7,500,000 shares of common stock issued in the private placement, the 6,125,000 shares of common stock underlying the shares of Series C preferred stock and the 6,250,000 shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants and, these shares are available for immediate resale in the public market, subject to the stockholder approval requirement discussed above. The market price of our common stock could fall due to an increase in the number of shares available for sale in the public market.

The exercise of our outstanding options and warrants, or conversion of our outstanding shares of convertible preferred stock, may depress our stock price and dilute your ownership of the company.

As of March 31, 2011, the following options and warrants were outstanding:

•

Stock options to purchase 4,368,000 shares of common stock at exercise prices ranging from $0.39 to $6.61 per share, not all of which are immediately exercisable. The weighted average exercise price of the outstanding stock options is $2.65 per share. These stock options are employee and non-executive director options.

•

Warrants to purchase 7,070,000 shares of common stock with a weighted average exercise price of $0.73 per share, inclusive of the warrants issued in our recent private placement.

•

Stock options to purchase 375,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $3.25 per share to an independent consultant which are exercisable upon achieving certain sales levels.

In addition, there are currently outstanding 28,000 shares of our Series B convertible preferred stock, 1,250,000 shares of our Series C preferred stock and additional warrants to purchase 6,250,000 shares of our common stock exercisable a price of $0.70 per share. The holder of the Series B convertible preferred stock may convert these shares into shares of our common stock at a conversion price equal to $1.40 per share. Accordingly, the outstanding 28,000 shares of Series B convertible preferred stock are presently convertible into an aggregate of 500,000 shares of our common stock, which will be available for immediate resale in accordance with the provisions of Rule 144 under the Securities Act. Further, as described above, the shares of Series C preferred stock (and all accrued dividends thereon) will convert into a maximum of 6,125,000 shares of our common stock at an initial conversion price of $0.40, effective upon the approval of our stockholders. If our stockholders approve the conversion of the shares of Series C preferred stock, then all shares of Series C preferred stock will automatically convert into shares of our common stock.

To the extent that these securities are exercised or converted, dilution to our shareholders will occur. Moreover, the terms upon which we will be able to obtain additional equity capital may be adversely affected, since the holders of these securities can be expected to exercise or convert them at a time when we would, in all likelihood, be able to obtain any needed capital on terms more favorable to us than the exercise and conversion terms provided by those securities. Further, in the event the conversion price of our outstanding shares of convertible preferred stock is lower than the actual trading price on the day of conversion, the holders could immediately sell their converted common shares, which would have a dilutive effect on the value of the outstanding common shares. Furthermore, the significant downward pressure on the trading price of our common stock as preferred stock holders converted these securities and sell the common shares received on conversion could encourage short sales by the holders of preferred stock or other shareholders. This would place further downward pressure on the trading price of our common stock. Even the mere perception of eventual sales of common shares issued on the conversion of the shares of preferred stock could lead to a decline in the trading price of our common stock.

Provisions in our charter documents and Delaware law could discourage or prevent a takeover, even if an acquisition would be beneficial to our stockholders.

Provisions of our certificate of incorporation and bylaws, as well as provisions of Delaware law, could make it more difficult for a third party to acquire us, even if doing so would be beneficial to our stockholders. These provisions include:

•

authorizing the issuance of “blank check” preferred that could be issued by our Board of Directors to increase the number of outstanding shares and thwart a takeover attempt;

•

prohibiting cumulative voting in the election of directors, which would otherwise allow less than a majority of stockholders to elect director candidates; and

•

advance notice provisions in connection with stockholder proposals that may prevent or hinder any attempt by our stockholders to bring business to be considered by our stockholders at a meeting or replace our Board of Directors.

Together these provisions may delay, deter or prevent a change in control of us, adversely affecting the market price of our common stock.
