Market Background and Market Drivers

Digital media has moved to the mainstream as a strategic business tool for enterprises—including education and corporate enterprise, and consumer segments—while advertising, media and entertainment look to capitalize on increased viewership over a variety of devices.

Based on the 200 and 2011 Frost & Sullivan reports, ViewCast believe the relevant portions of the encoding market have expanded to approximately $523 million in 2012 and is expected to expand to $923 million by 2016. The expansion of these markets, especially toward high definition, more powerful and reliable performance, and greater ease of use, has underscored the need for structured, secure and scalable digital media encoder solutions. We believe that ViewCast can capably fill that role.

Market Drivers

According to the Cisco® Visual Networking Index (VNI) Global Mobile Data Traffic Forecast for 2011 to 2016, worldwide mobile data traffic will increase 18-fold over the next five years, reaching 10.8 exabytes per month—or an annual run rate of 130 exabytes—by 2016. The expected sharp increase in mobile traffic is due, in part, to a projected surge in the number of mobile Internet—connected devices. During 2011—2016 Cisco anticipates that global mobile data traffic will outgrow global fixed data traffic by three times. This mobile data traffic increase represents a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 78 percent spanning the forecast period. We believe the following trends are driving these significant increases and driving the market for our digital media encoding equipment:

 

   

More Streamed Content.

 

   

More Mobile Connections,

 

   

Enhanced Computing of Devices,

 

   

Faster Mobile Speeds,

These relationships are non-exclusive and typically require that these resellers participate in the marketing, installation and technical support of our products.

Our product revenue is well diversified among various end-users who purchase from our direct and indirect channels. During 2011, two distributors generated more than 10% of our sales, Jeff Burgess and Associates, Inc. (15.9%) and Graphics Distribution, Inc.

Production and Supply

We build our Osprey video products using contract manufacturers in the United States and Asia. Our operations personnel in the Carrollton, Texas area are responsible for parts planning, procurement, Niagara system assembly, software loading, final testing and inspection to quality standards. We plan for most high-volume production to be handled through large OEMs or contract manufacturers.

We have been and will continue to be dependent on third parties for the supply and manufacturing of our subassemblies, components and electronic parts, including standard and custom-designed components. We generally do not maintain supply agreements with such third parties but instead purchase components and electronic parts pursuant to purchase orders in the ordinary course of business. We are dependent on the ability of our third-party manufacturers and suppliers to meet our design, performance and quality specifications.

Installation, Service and Maintenance

Most of our Osprey video card products and Niagara system products are customer installable. For those customers who need assistance with Niagara products, we utilize our channels to install and provide service. Further, we maintain an in-house technical support group to assist our channels and customers as required.

We offer limited warranties covering workmanship and materials, during which period our resellers or ViewCast will replace parts or make repairs. We maintain an in-house staff of engineering personnel and offer telephone support to assist resellers and end-users during normal business hours. In addition, we enter into annual contracts with end-users to provide software maintenance and support on our products.

Research and Development

We focus our research and development activities on digital media applications, process management and new features for expanded market opportunities. We will continue to make investments in core video technology and processing techniques, focusing on how to best apply the latest advancements in the industry into commercially viable products. In some cases, strategic partnerships will be utilized to enhance our research and development, and potentially reduce costs. During the 2010 and 2011 fiscal years we expended approximately $3.2 million and $3.1 million, respectively, in research and development activities; plus capitalized software development costs and patents of $52 thousand and $173 thousand, respectively. No significant portion of such expenses was borne directly by our customers.

New products or feature enhancements are scheduled for launch in 2012 in the Osprey and Niagara product families that will provide new capabilities and features. We believe these products and services will be competitive and feature unique capabilities. We will maintain integration efforts with third party application software and hardware for our products and services.

Competition

The market for digital media software, systems and services is highly competitive and characterized by the frequent introduction of new products and features based upon innovative technologies. We compete with numerous well-established manufacturers and suppliers of video streaming technologies, videoconferencing, networking, telecommunications and multimedia products, certain of which dominate the existing network or video communications market for such products. In addition, we are aware of others that are developing, and in some cases have introduced, new products and services for digital media communications and management.

We are not aware of any direct competitors that compete in all of our digital media product families and applications. However, among our direct competitors competing with one or more of our products or applications are: VBrick Digital Rapids, Black Magic. Electronics manufacturers may be sales channels for our products but also actively compete for business in this market.

Patents, Copyrights, Trademarks and Proprietary Information

We hold a U.S. patent covering certain aspects of compressed video and have two patents pending covering certain aspects of a confidence monitor and system and a media encoder system. Although we do not believe these patents or any other patent is essential to our business operations, we may apply for additional patents relating to other aspects of our products. We also rely on copyright laws to protect our software applications, which we consider proprietary.

We believe that product recognition is an important competitive factor and, accordingly, we promote the ViewCast®, Osprey®, Niagara®, SimulStream®, and Niagara SCX® brands, among others, in connection with our marketing activities, and have applied for or received trademark or service mark registration for such brands. Our use of these marks and our trade names may be subject to challenge by others, which, if successful, could have a material adverse effect on our operations.

We also rely on confidentiality agreements with our directors, employees, consultants and manufacturers and employ various methods to protect the source codes, concepts, ideas, proprietary know-how and documentation of our proprietary technology. However, such methods may not afford us complete protection, and there can be no assurance that others will not independently develop similar know-how or obtain access to our know-how or software codes, concepts, ideas and documentation. Furthermore, although we have and expect to continue to have confidentiality agreements with our directors, employees, consultants, manufacturers, and appropriate vendors, there can be no assurance that such arrangements will adequately protect our trade secrets.

We purchase certain components that are incorporated into our products from third-party suppliers and rely on their assurances that such components do not infringe on the patents of others. A successful claim against any components used in our products could affect our ability to manufacture, supply and support our products. We use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure third-party supplied components are non-infringing, but there can be no assurances against future claims.

Government Regulation

We are subject to Federal Communications Commission regulations relating to electromagnetic radiation from our products, which impose compliance burdens on us. In the event we redesign or otherwise modify our products or complete the development of new products, we will be required to comply with Federal Communications Commission regulations with respect to such products. Our foreign markets require us to comply with additional regulatory requirements. Compliance with environment laws, both domestic and foreign, may also precipitate changes in materials or processes related to our products and packing materials and may cause us to be subject to additional requirements for testing, certifications or disposal. We do not believe the cost of compliance with environment laws will be material to the Company.

Personnel

As of March 15, 2012, our personnel consisted of sixty-one (61) people, two (2) of whom are in executive positions, twenty-one (21) of whom are engaged in engineering, research and development, sixteen (16) of whom are engaged in marketing and sales activities, twelve (12) of whom are engaged in operations, three (3) of whom are providing support and professional services and seven (7) of whom are in finance and administration. None of our employees are represented by a labor union. We consider our employee relations to be good.

Table of Contents

ViewCast utilizes significant capital to design, develop and commercialize its products and intends to fund its 2012 operating activities and sales growth by utilizing existing cash, cash provided from operations and working capital lines of credit to the extent possible. ViewCast believes that these items will provide sufficient cash to fund operations for the next 12 months, however, ViewCast may require additional working capital during the next year to support operations and the expansion of sales channels and market distribution, to develop and introduce new products and services, to enhance existing product offerings, to address unanticipated competitive threats or technical problems, to transition adverse economic conditions and for potential acquisition transactions. There can be no assurance that additional financing will be available to ViewCast on acceptable terms, or at all. Additional equity financing may involve substantial dilution to our then existing stockholders. In the event ViewCast is unable to raise additional capital or execute other alternatives, it may be required to sell segments of the business, or substantially reduce or curtail our activities. Such actions could result in charges that could be material to ViewCast’s results of operations or financial position.

Financial Highlights of 2011

Total revenues from continuing operations for the year ended December 31, 2011 were $14,110,797, an 11% decrease from revenues of $15,871,845 reported in 2010. Gross margin for 2011 decreased 12% to $8,795,480, or 62.3% of sales, from $10,037,477, or 63.2% of sales, in the year ended December 31, 2010. Total operating expenses from continuing operations increased 3% to $9,964,534 for 2011 when compared to the $9,676,412 for 2010, resulting in a net loss from continuing operations of $1,393,162 for the fiscal year of 2011, compared to the net income from continuing operations of $186,817 for the fiscal year of 2010.

Critical Accounting Policies

Management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). We review the accounting policies we use in reporting our financial results on a regular basis. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis we evaluate our estimates, including those related to accounts receivable, inventories, warranty obligations, income taxes, restructuring and contingencies and litigation. Our estimates are based on historical experience and other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. In addition to the items listed above which are affected by estimates, we believe that the following are critical accounting policies used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements:

 

   

Revenue Recognition – We apply provisions of Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 101, Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements as revised by SAB 104, Revenue Recognition, FASB ASC 605, “Revenue Recognition” and FASB ASC 985, “Software”. Under these guidelines, we recognize revenue on transactions where persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, title has transferred, product payment is not contingent upon performance of installation or service obligations, the price is fixed or determinable and payment is reasonably assured. We accrue warranty costs and sales allowances for promotional activities at time of shipment based on historical experience. In addition, we defer revenue associated with maintenance and support contracts and recognize revenue ratably over the contract term.

 

   

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts – We maintain allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of our customers to make required payments. If the financial condition of our customers or distribution partners were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, additional allowances may be required.

 

   

Excess and Obsolete Inventories – We write down our inventories for estimated obsolescence and unmarketable inventory equal to the difference between the cost of the inventory and the estimated market value based upon assumptions about future demand and market conditions. If actual market conditions are less than those projected by management, additional write-downs may be required.

Goodwill Arising from the Acquisitions of Business – In accordance with FASB ASC 350, “Intangibles – Goodwill and Other,” we are required to test goodwill for impairment annually or more frequently if circumstances indicate potential impairment. Consistent with this standard, we will review goodwill, as well as other intangible assets and long-term assets, for impairment annually or more frequently as warranted, and if circumstances indicate that the recorded value of any such other asset is impaired, such asset is written down to its new, lower fair value. If any item of goodwill or such other asset is determined to be impaired, an impairment loss would be recognized equal to the amount by which the recorded value exceeds the estimated fair market value. In September 2011, the FASB issued accounting guidance on the testing of goodwill for impairment. The guidance allows entities testing goodwill for impairment the option of performing a qualitative assessment to determine the likelihood of goodwill impairment and whether it is necessary to perform the two-step impairment test currently required. This guidance is effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. Early adoption is permitted. We have elected to early adopt this guidance for the year ended December 31, 2011 and the guidance did not have a material impact on our financial statements. See Note 6 for additional information.

 

   

Reporting for Discontinued Operations / Assets Held for Sale – In accordance with FASB ASC 205-20, “Presentation of Financial Statements – Discontinued Operations”, assets held for sale are reported separately on the Balance Sheet by class of asset and/or liability, not as a single net amount, and these new line items are reclassified on the face financial statements (Balance Sheet) for the prior year(s). The net income or loss from the operations of the assets held for sale are reported separately on the Income Statement, located below Income from Continuing Operations and above any Extraordinary Items; and similar to the Balance Sheet presentation, the prior year(s) are also reclassified. Additionally, where any of these items affect the Statement of Cash Flow and/or Shareholders’ Equity, those items will be a new line item on the face of those financial statements and they will also be reclassified for prior year(s).

Results of Operations

Year Ended December 31, 2011 compared to Year Ended December 31, 2010.

Net Sales. During the year ended December 31, 2011, net sales from continuing operations decreased $1,761,048 to $14,110,797 from $15,871,845 in 2010, representing an 11% decrease from 2010. Net sales for Osprey and Niagara products decreased during 2011 compared to the same period in 2010 by 20% in the North America sales region and 16% in the Europe, Middle East and Africa (“EMEA”) sales region, which was partially offset by a 32% increase in the Pacific Rim/South America sales regions.

Osprey Product Sales. During the year ended December 31, 2011, Osprey sales decreased $1,001,032 to $8,780,292 from $9,781,324 in 2010, representing a 10% decrease from 2010 and 62.2% of total 2011 net sales, compared to 61.6% in 2010. The decrease in sales for 2011 was primarily due to sales decreases of 13% in the North America sales region and 25% in the EMEA sales region, which was partially offset by an 8% increase in the Pacific Rim/South America sales regions. With the introduction of new Osprey products and additional Linux drivers, we anticipate growth in 2012 from broadband networking providers as they deploy new, higher bandwidth services and technologies and from integrators with other applications requiring video capture.

ViewCast Niagara® Streaming/Encoding Systems. During the year ended December 31, 2011, combined systems sales decreased $722,859 to $5,168,148 from $5,891,007 in 2010, representing a 12% decrease from 2010 and 36.6% of total 2011 net sales, compared to 37.1% in 2010. The decrease in sales for 2011 was primarily due to a sales decrease of 29% in the North America sales region, which was partially offset by increases of 3% in the EMEA sales region and 292% in the Pacific Rim/South America sales regions. During 2012 we anticipate sales of the new Niagara 9100 product series along with our other Niagara systems and software will contribute to improving sales during 2012.

Other Revenues. During the year ended December 31, 2011, other revenues from support and maintenance decreased $37,157 to $162,357 from $199,514 in 2010, representing a 19% decrease from the 2010 levels and 1.2% of total 2011 revenue, compared to 1.3% in 2010. We anticipate that Other Revenue will vary quarter to quarter depending on the level of support and maintenance revenues that are amortized over contract periods.

Cost of Sales/Gross Profit. During the year ended December 31, 2011, cost of sales from continuing operations decreased $519,051 to $5,315,317 from $5,834,368 in 2010, representing a 9% decrease from 2010. Gross profit margin decreased $1,241,997 to $8,795,480 from $10,037,477 in 2010, representing a 12% decrease from 2010 and 62.3% of total 2011 net sales, compared to 63.2% in 2010. The slight decrease in gross profit margin percentage was primarily due to a higher percentage of sales derived from the lower margin OEM system products.

We expect 2012 gross profit margins to remain comparable to historical margins in the 55%-68% range. Margins will be affected quarter to quarter by promotional activities, price adjustments, cost of materials, inventory obsolescence, new products, and the sales mix between capture cards, systems and services in any one reporting period.

Selling, General and Administrative Expense. During 2011, selling, general and administrative expenses from continuing operations increased $560,863 to $6,385,898 from $5,825,035 in 2010, representing a 10% increase from 2010. The increase is primarily attributable to the expansion of our sales presence in the Pacific Rim and Europe.

Research and Development Expense. During 2011, research and development expense from continuing operations decreased $133,751 to $3,067,808 from $3,201,559 in 2010, representing a 4% decrease from 2010. The decrease reflects the efficiencies derived from new product development processes that have begun being implemented over the past year, which have also reduced the time incurred to bring new products to market.

Depreciation and Amortization Expense. During 2011, depreciation and amortization expense from continuing operations decreased $138,990 to $510,828 from $649,818 in 2010, representing a 21% decrease from 2010. The decrease was primarily due to the reduction in expenditures for capital assets over the past two years.

Other Income and Expense. During 2011, total other expense increased by $44,860 to $224,108 from $179,248 in 2010, representing a 25% increase from the 2010 levels. This was primarily due to a $41,293 increase in interest expense to $227,034 from $185,741 in 2010, representing a 22% increase from the 2010 levels. The increase in interest expense is principally due to an increased average outstanding balance in the line of credit and increased interest rates.

Net Income (Loss) from Continuing Operations. During 2011, the net loss from continuing operations increased $1,579,980 to a net loss of $1,393,163 from net income of $186,817 in 2010. The increase in net loss was mainly due to decreased revenue and the related gross margins.

Net Loss from Discontinued Operations. During 2011, the net loss from discontinued operations increased $890,444 to a net loss of $1,628,258 from a net loss of $737,814 in 2010 (see Note 3 to the Financial Statements).

Net Loss. During the year ended December 31, 2011, net loss increased $2,470,424 to a net loss of $3,021,421 from a net loss of $550,997 in 2010. For the year ended December 31, 2011, after increasing the net loss for stated preferred dividends of $282,444 and decreasing the net loss for Preferred Stock Redemption of $5,586,666 (see Note 10), the net income per share applicable to the common shareholders was $0.05. For the same period 2010, after increasing the net loss for stated preferred dividends of $820,000, the net loss per share applicable to the common shareholders was ($0.04) per share.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

ViewCast’s primary sources of funds for conducting its business activities are derived from sales of its products and services, from its credit facilities and from the placement of its equity securities with investors. ViewCast requires working capital primarily to increase inventories and accounts receivable during sales growth, develop products, service debt, purchase capital assets, and to fund operating losses and strategic acquisitions.

Table of Contents

Net cash used by operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2011 totaled $1,367,123, compared to the cash used by operating activities of $106,719 in 2010. The net cash used in operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2011 was due to the net loss from continuing operations of $1,393,163 plus the net loss from the discontinued operations of $1,628,258, which was partially offset by non-cash operating expenses of $1,455,395 and changes in operating assets and liabilities of $ 198,903. The cash provided from operating assets and liabilities was principally from decreases in accounts receivable and prepaid expenses and an increase in accrued expenses and other current liabilities, partially offset by cash used for increases in inventory, net assets held for sales and deposits and a decrease in accounts payable.

Net cash used for investing activities during the year ended December 31, 2011 totaled $308,456, of which $138,146 was used for property and equipment purchased and $172,708 of software development costs and patents capitalized, which was partially offset by $2,398 cash provided from proceeds from property and equipment disposal.

During the year ended December 31, 2011, ViewCast’s financing activities provided cash of $347,011, of which $700,000 was provided from the net proceeds from the stockholder line of credit (see Note 7) and $433,623 was provided from the sale of stock under a private placement (see Note 10). These were partially offset by $705,837 of cash used for the net payment on the bank line of credit and $81,342 of cash used for repayment of long-term debt.

In June 2007, ViewCast entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement/Security Agreement with Amegy Bank National Association, a national banking association to provide a line of credit for working capital. The general borrowing availability under this facility is $1,000,000, reviewed as growth of business dictates. However, this may be exceeded without penalty. As of December 31, 2011, we have an outstanding balance of $335,641 under this facility based on the outstanding accounts receivable at year end.

Since October 1998, the Company has maintained a credit facility with an entity controlled by one of its principal stockholders, Mr. H.T. Ardinger. Most recently, ViewCast.com, Inc., Osprey Technologies, Inc. and VideoWare, Inc. (jointly and severally, “the Borrower”) amended the terms and conditions of the loan and security agreement with the Ardinger Family Partnership, Ltd. on December 30, 2011, to be effective as of October 1, 2011. Under the amended terms any amounts outstanding of the primary principal amount and secondary principal amount mature December 31, 2014, subject to certain earlier payment conditions. The interest on the primary principal amount will accrue based on an interest rate per annum which is the greater of 5.0% or the effective prime rate plus 0.75% (5.00% as of December 31, 2010 and 2011). Interest on the secondary principal shall accrue based on the effective Applicable Federal Rate, as defined in the agreement, (0.32% and 1.27%) as of December 31, 2010 and 2011, respectively). The amendment defers the payment of the accrued interest on the unpaid primary and secondary principal amounts from October 1, 2011 through March 31, 2012 until beginning April 30, 2012 payment of such accrued interest will be paid in three approximately equal monthly payments. The amended terms call for interest accruing after March 31, 2012 to be paid monthly; and beginning July 31, 2012, minimum monthly principal payments of $21,422, in addition to the monthly interest payments. The amended note agreement is secured by all the assets of the Borrower.

There were no preferred stock dividends declared or paid during 2011. On May 4, 2011, under an Exchange Agreement, the Series B Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock were converted into Common Stock and any and all dividends, owed or owing on the Preferred Stock, were cancelled (see Note 11).

On December 27, 2011, ViewCast entered into Subscription Agreements with the Investors for the purchase of private placement units consisting of an aggregate 6,618,068 shares of Common Stock and Warrants to purchase 6,618,068 shares of Common Stock for an aggregate purchase price of $745,000. Of the $745,000 subscribed, ViewCast received $425,000 in December with the remainder received in January 2012. The purchase price per private placement unit was $0.1125707, which was the weighted average closing price for the five trading days immediately prior to December 27, 2011. Pursuant to the Subscription Agreements, the Warrants are exercisable into shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of 0.1238278 per share of Common Stock which was 110% of the weighted average closing price for the five trading days immediately prior to December 27, 2011. The Warrants will expire on December 31, 2014.

Table of Contents

At December 31, 2011, ViewCast had working capital of $2,626,808 and cash and cash equivalents of $319,908. ViewCast expects to obtain additional working capital by increasing sales, maintaining reduced operating expenses, borrowing under its loan facilities, receiving the remainder of the private placement and through other initiatives that may include raising additional equity. ViewCast utilizes significant capital to design, develop and commercialize its products and intends to fund its operating activities and sales growth during the next twelve months by utilizing existing cash, cash contributed from operations and its available working capital lines of credit. ViewCast anticipates it may require additional working capital during 2012 to support the expansion of sales channels and market distribution, to develop and introduce new products and services, to enhance existing product offerings, to address unanticipated competitive threats or technical problems, to transition adverse economic conditions, to service its debt, and for potential acquisition transactions.

Although ViewCast has no firm arrangements with respect to additional capital financing, on an ongoing basis, it considers proposals received from potential investors relating to the issuance of equity securities in exchange for a cash investment in ViewCast. There can be no assurance that additional financing will be available to ViewCast on acceptable terms, or at all. Additional equity financing may involve substantial dilution to our then existing stockholders. ViewCast intends to actively pursue other strategic merger and acquisition opportunities to the extent possible. In the event we are unable to raise additional capital or execute other alternatives, we may be required to sell segments of the business, or substantially reduce or curtail our activities. Such actions could result in charges that could be material to ViewCast’s results of operations or financial position.

At December 31, 2011, ViewCast had no material commitments for capital expenditures.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

ViewCast does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on ViewCast’s financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to investors.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Directors

ViewCast.com, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of ViewCast.com, Inc. and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2011 and 2010 and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity (deficit) and cash flows for the years then ended. The Company’s management is responsible for these consolidated financial statements. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. Our audits also included examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of ViewCast.com, Inc. as of December 31, 2011 and 2010 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

1. The Company and Description of Business and Future Liquidity Needs

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of ViewCast.com, Inc. dba ViewCast Corporation and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, VideoWare, Inc., Osprey Technologies, Inc., ViewCast Solutions, Inc. previously known as Ancept Corporation, and ViewCast Technology Services Corporation (collectively, ViewCast or the Company). The Company develops industry-leading hardware and software for the capture, management, transformation and delivery of digital media over IP and mobile networks. ViewCast’s solutions simplify the complex workflows required for these tasks, allowing broadcasters, businesses, governments and the various distribution entities to reach and expand their distribution of digital media easily and effectively. ViewCast’s Niagara® streaming systems and Osprey® video capture cards, provide the technology required to deliver the multi-platform experiences driving today’s digital media market. ViewCast markets and sells its products and professional services worldwide directly to end-users or through indirect channels including original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”), value-added resellers (“VARs”), resellers, distributors and computer system integrators.

On January 15, 2012, ViewCast completed the sale of certain assets from Ancept Corporation (the “Ancept Assets”) related to the development and licensing of the VMp software products that provide the management of the life cycle phases of digital media pursuant to the terms of the Asset Purchase Agreement dated January 13, 2012, by and between ViewCast, Ancept Corporation and Genus Technologies LLC and its subsidiary. ViewCast’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Ancept Corporation, was renamed ViewCast Solutions, Inc. and no longer operates this business.

During the year ended December 31, 2011, the Company incurred a net loss of $3,021,421 and used cash in operations of $1,367,123. At December 31, 2011, the Company has working capital of $2,626,808 and cash and cash equivalents of $319,908. On January 31, 2012, the Company received the remaining proceeds of $320,000 from its private placement subscription agreements entered into December 27, 2011. The Company expects to obtain additional working capital by increasing sales, maintaining efficient operating expenses, borrowing on its line of credit and through other initiatives that may include raising additional capital. The Company believes that these items will provide sufficient cash to fund operations for the next 12 months, however, the Company may require additional working capital during 2012 to support operations and the expansion of sales channels and market distribution, to develop and introduce new products and services, to enhance existing product offerings, to address unanticipated competitive threats or technical problems, and for potential acquisition transactions. There can be no assurance that additional financing will be available to the Company on acceptable terms, or at all. Additional equity financing may involve substantial dilution to our then existing stockholders. In the event the Company is unable to raise additional capital or execute other alternatives, it may be required to sell segments of the business, or substantially reduce or curtail our activities. Such actions could result in charges that could be material to the Company’s results of operations and financial position.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and all of its subsidiaries, all of which are wholly-owned. All inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an initial maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Cash and cash equivalents are at risk to the extent that they exceed Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insured amounts of $250,000 per institution for interest bearing accounts. Non-interest bearing accounts are fully insured through December 31, 2012, at all FDIC insured institutions.

Table of Contents

Accounts Receivable

The Company’s accounts receivable are primarily due from resellers and distributors of its video products. Credit is extended based on evaluation of each customer’s financial condition and, generally collateral is not required except for certain international customers. Accounts receivable are generally due within 30 days and are stated net of an allowance for doubtful accounts. Accounts are considered past due if outstanding longer than contractual payment terms. The Company records an allowance on a specific basis by considering a number of factors, including the length of time trade accounts are past due, the Company’s previous loss history, the credit-worthiness of individual customers, economic conditions affecting specific customer industries and economic conditions in general. The Company writes-off accounts receivable when they become uncollectible and payments subsequently received on such receivables are credited against write-offs in the period the payment is received.

Changes in the Company’s allowance for doubtful accounts for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2011 are as follows:

 

     Year ended December 31,  
     2010      2011

Ending balance

   $ 67,436       $ 22,292   
  

 

 

    

 

 

 

Inventories

Inventories consist primarily of purchased electronic components and finished goods. Finished goods include computer system products, along with the related documentation manuals and packaging materials. Inventories are carried at the lower of cost or market, cost being determined using average cost. In order to assess the ultimate realization of inventories, the Company is required to make judgments as to the future demand requirements compared to current or committed inventory levels. Write downs are made to the lower of cost or market when projected demand requirements decrease due to market conditions, technological obsolescence and product life cycle changes.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment is recorded at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is determined using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives, generally two to seven years, of the related assets. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the useful life or the remaining term of the related leases. Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are charged to operations as incurred; renewals and betterments are capitalized. Gains and losses on the disposition of property and equipment are recorded in the period incurred.

Capitalized Software Development Costs

Costs of developing new software products and substantial enhancements to existing software products are expensed as incurred as research and development expenses. When technological feasibility is established, additional costs incurred are capitalized. Amortization of capitalized software development costs begins when products are available for general release to customers, and is computed using the greater of the revenue method or the straight-line method over a period not to exceed three years. Capitalized software development costs also include the internally developed software that was acquired in the Ancept acquisition.

Intangible Assets and Amortization

Legal fees and similar capitalizable costs relating to patents, copyrights, and trademarks are capitalized as appropriate. Patent costs are generally amortized on a straight-line basis over 17 years. Customer lists and non-compete agreements are being amortized over their estimated useful lives of three to seven years. See Note 3 for customer lists held as assets for sale, and Note 6 for $26,419 impairment of the customer lists recognized during 2011. No impairment of customer lists was recognized in 2010.

The weighted average remaining amortization period for intangible assets at December 31, 2011 is 12.3 years.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

Assets that are held and used are analyzed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts may not be recoverable. Impairment is recognized when the estimated undiscounted cash flow generated by those assets is less than the carrying amounts of such assets. The amount of impairment is the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value of such assets. Assets held for sale are carried at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less selling costs. No impairment charges were recognized during 2010 and 2011.

Goodwill

Goodwill is tested annually for impairment. If the implied fair value of goodwill is lower than its carrying amount, goodwill impairment is indicated and goodwill is written down to its implied fair value. Subsequent increases in goodwill value are not recognized in the financial statements. See Note 6 for $620,002 impairment of goodwill recognized during 2011. No impairment of goodwill was recognized in 2010.

Discontinued Operations / Assets Held for Sale

In accordance with FASB ASC 205-20, “Presentation of Financial Statements—Discontinued Operations”, assets held for sale are reported separately on the Balance Sheet by class of asset and/or liability, not as a single net amount, and these new line items are reclassified on the face financial statements (Balance Sheet) for the prior year(s). The net income or loss from the operations of the assets held for sale are reported separately on the Income Statement, located below Income from Continuing Operations and above any Extraordinary Items; and similar to the Balance Sheet presentation, the prior year(s) are also reclassified. Additionally, where any of these items affect the Statement of Cash Flow and/or Shareholders’ Equity, those items will be a new line item on the face of those financial statements and they will also be reclassified for prior year(s).

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) No. 101, Revenue Recognition in financial Statement as revised by SAB 104, Revenue Recognition, FASB ASC 605, “Revenue Recognition” and FASB ASC 985, “Software”. Under these guidelines, the Company recognizes revenue on transactions where persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, title has transferred, product payment is not contingent upon performance of installation or service obligations, the price is fixed or determinable and payment is reasonably assured. The Company accrues warranty costs and sales allowances for promotional activities at time of shipment based on historical experience.

Product sales are recognized upon shipment, provided title and risk of loss has passed to the customer, there is evidence of an arrangement, fees are fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured. Transactions that do not meet all these requirements are deferred until the point at which these requirements are satisfied. Maintenance, support and extended warranties are recognized monthly over the contract term. Professional services revenues contracts are generally sold separately and revenues are recognized as provided.

Taxes Collected From Customers and Remitted To Government Authorities

Taxes collected from customers and remitted to governmental authorities are presented in the accompanying statements of operations on a net basis.

Shipping and Handling Costs

Shipping and handling costs are included in cost of revenue in the accompanying statements of operations.

Net Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) is calculated by dividing net income or loss applicable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period increased to include the number of additional shares of common stock that would have been outstanding if the dilutive potential shares of common stock had been issued. Dilutive potential shares of common stock include convertible preferred stock, options and warrants which are exercisable based on the average market price during the year. For 2010 and 2011, the computation of diluted loss per share excludes the convertible preferred stock, options and warrants as they are anti-dilutive. The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share:

Warranty Reserves

Reserves are provided for the estimated base warranty costs when revenue is recognized. The costs of warranty obligations are estimated based on the Company’s warranty policy or applicable contractual warranty obligations, historical experience of known product failure rates and use of materials and service delivery charges incurred in correcting product failures. Specific warranty accruals may be made if unforeseen technical problems arise. If actual experience, relative to these factors, adversely differs from these estimates, additional warranty expense may be required.

Risk and Uncertainties

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to credit risk consist principally of cash, cash equivalents and trade accounts receivable. The Company invests its cash and cash equivalents with commercial banks in Texas. The Company sells its products and services primarily to end users, distributors and resellers without requiring collateral; however, the Company routinely assesses the financial condition of its customers and maintains allowances for anticipated losses. The following table discloses the number of customers that accounted for more than 10% of annual sales and receivable balances:

The Company believes it has no significant credit risk in excess of recorded reserves.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Significant estimates used in preparing these financial statements are related primarily to accounts receivable allowances, inventory valuation, warranty reserves, deferred tax asset valuation allowances and stock options. Management believes the estimates used in preparing the financial statements are reasonable; however, actual results could differ from those estimates.

Income Taxes

The Company utilizes the liability method of accounting for income taxes wherein deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based upon the differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities, as measured by enacted tax rates expected to be in effect when these differences reverse. Deferred tax assets are recognized when it becomes more likely than not that the assets will be realized. The Company files tax returns with the U.S. Federal and various state jurisdictions and is no longer subject to income tax examinations for years before 2006.

Advertising Costs

Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising expense for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2011 was $675,861 and $651,195, respectively.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company believes that the carrying amount of its financial instruments, which include cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, short-term debt and accrued expenses, approximate fair value due to the short-term maturities of these instruments. The Company also has long-term debt with its primary shareholder.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company accounts for all share-based payment awards made to employees and directors including stock options and employee stock purchases based on estimated fair values. The Company estimates the fair value of share-based payment awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model and the value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as expense over the requisite service period, net of forfeitures.

 

26


Table of Contents

The Company uses the Black-Scholes option-pricing model (“Black-Scholes”) as its method of valuation. The fair value is amortized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service periods of the awards, which is generally the vesting period. The fair value of share-based payment awards on the date of grant as determined by the Black-Scholes model is affected by the Company’s stock price as well as other assumptions. These assumptions include, but are not limited to the expected stock price volatility over the term of the awards, the actual and projected employee stock option exercise behaviors and an estimated forfeiture rate. The weighted-average estimated value of employee stock options granted during the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2011 was estimated using the Black-Scholes model with the following weighted-average assumptions:

8. Line of Credit

On June 29, 2007, the Company entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement/Security Agreement with Amegy Bank National Association (“Amegy”), a national banking association. This agreement provides the Company with an accounts receivable loan facility to provide a source of working capital with advances generally limited to 85% of submitted accounts receivable. Upon collection of an account receivable, the remaining fifteen percent is rebated to the Company less the Amegy fixed and variable discounts. The Amegy fixed discount equals 0.2% of the account receivable for the first 15 days the account receivable is outstanding plus an additional 0.2% for each additional 15 day period, up to 1.2% for receivables 76 to 90 days outstanding. The variable discount is calculated for each day that the amount advanced by Amegy is outstanding until repaid by collection of the account receivable and equals the prime rate plus 1.5% divided by 360 multiplied by the advance amount for each account receivable. The general borrowing availability under this facility is $1,000,000, reviewed as growth of business dictates. However, this may be exceeded without penalty. To secure the amounts due under the agreement, the Company granted Amegy a security interest in all of its assets owned as of the date of the agreement or thereafter acquired. The Company had $1,041,478 outstanding as of December 31, 2010 and $335,641 outstanding as of December 31, 2011 under this facility based on the outstanding accounts receivable at year end.

9. Long-term Debt

Stockholder Term Notes

Since October 1998, the Company has maintained a credit facility with an entity controlled by one of its principal stockholders, Mr. H.T. Ardinger. Most recently, ViewCast.com, Inc., Osprey Technologies, Inc. and VideoWare, Inc. (jointly and severally, “the Borrower”) amended the terms and conditions of the loan and security agreement with the Ardinger Family Partnership, Ltd. on December 30, 2011, to be effective as of October 1, 2011. Under the amended terms any amounts outstanding of the primary principal amount and secondary principal amount mature December 31, 2014, subject to certain earlier payment conditions. The interest on the primary principal amount will accrue based on an interest rate per annum which is the greater of 5.0% or the effective prime rate plus 0.75% (5.00% as of December 31, 2010 and 2011). Interest on the secondary principal shall accrue based on the effective Applicable Federal Rate, as defined in the agreement, (0.32% and 1.27%) as of December 31, 2010 and 2011, respectively). The amendment defers the payment of the accrued interest on the unpaid primary and secondary principal amounts from October 1, 2011 through March 31, 2012 until beginning April 30, 2012 payment of such accrued interest will be paid in three approximately equal monthly payments. The amended terms call for interest accruing after March 31, 2012 to be paid monthly; and beginning July 31, 2012, minimum monthly principal payments of $21,422, in addition to the monthly interest payments. The amended note agreement is secured by all the assets of the Borrower.

10. Income Taxes

The Company records a valuation allowance when it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. In the opinion of management, realization of the Company’s net operating loss carryforward is not reasonably assured, and a valuation allowance of $27,339,000 and $24,471,000 has been provided against deferred tax assets in excess of deferred tax liabilities in the accompanying consolidated financial statements at December 31, 2010 and 2011, respectively.

11. Stockholders’ Equity

Preferred Stock

On May 4, 2011, the Company entered into a Preferred Stock Exchange Agreement (the “Exchange Agreement”) with Ardinger, Ardinger Partnership (the “Ardinger Partnership”), Adkins Family Partnership, Ltd. and RDB Limited, p/k/a Baker Family Partnership, Ltd. to convert the outstanding shares of its Series B Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series B Preferred Stock”) and Series C Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series C Preferred Stock”) and to restructure Series E Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock (the “Series E Preferred Stock”), and collectively with the Series B Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock, (the “Preferred Stock”). The Exchange Agreement and all related changes to the Preferred Stock (collectively the “Preferred Stock Redemption”) have been accounted for as an extinguishment of Preferred Stock.

As of December 31, 2010 and May 4, 2011, 800,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock were outstanding at a stated value of $10 per share. Ardinger, a principal stockholder of the Company, held 400,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock, with the remainder held by other stockholders. The Series B Preferred Stock was convertible into common stock of the Company (“Common Stock”) at a fixed price of $3.625 per share, subject to certain requirements, which was modified under the Exchange Agreement to $0.60 per share of underlying Common Stock and was converted on May 4, 2011 into a total of 13,333,333 shares of Common Stock.

As of December 31, 2010 and May 4, 2011, 200,000 shares of Series C Preferred Stock were outstanding at a stated value of $10 per share held by Ardinger. The Series C Preferred Stock was convertible into Common Stock at a fixed price of $0.60 per share, subject to certain requirements, which remained the conversion price under the Exchange Agreement and was converted on May 4, 2011 into a total of 3,333,333 shares of Common Stock.

Holders of Series B Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock had no voting rights except on amendments to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation to change the authorized shares, or par value, or to alter or change the powers or preferences of their respective preferred stock issues. The Series B Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock carried cumulative dividends of 8% and 9% per year, respectively, and were generally payable semi-annually in arrears in cash or Common Stock, at the Company’s option. On May 4, 2011, under the Exchange Agreement, when the Series B Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock were converted into Common Stock, any and all dividends, owed or owing on the Preferred Stock, were cancelled.

In December 2006, the Company retired certain debt from the Ardinger Partnership in exchange for certain Company securities, including 80,000 shares of Series E Preferred Stock with each share having a stated value of $100 with voting rights on an “as converted” basis with the Common Stock and accrues no dividends. The liquidation preference on the Series E Preferred Stock is the $100 per share stated value multiplied by 107% if the liquidation event occurs after December 11, 2010.

Under the Exchange Agreement, until May 4, 2012 (the “Temporary Conversion Period”), each outstanding share of Series E Preferred Stock shall be convertible, at the option of the holder of such Series E Preferred Stock, into shares of Common Stock at a temporary conversion price of $0.50 per share of underlying Common Stock (the “Temporary Conversion Price”). If at any time during the Temporary Conversion Period, the Company completes, in one transaction or a series of related transactions, the placement(s) of Common Stock for total aggregate net proceeds of at least $7,000,000 (a “Securities Placement”), each outstanding share of Series E Preferred Stock shall automatically convert into the corresponding number of shares of Common Stock at the Temporary Conversion Price. During the Temporary Conversion Period, if any shares of Series E Preferred Stock are converted, all other outstanding shares of Series E Preferred Stock shall also automatically convert at the Temporary Conversion Price. Upon a conversion of the shares of Series E Preferred Stock during the Temporary Conversion Period, either voluntarily or as a result of a Securities Placement, the Company shall issue 16,000,000 shares of Common Stock in exchange for the 80,000 outstanding shares of Series E Preferred Stock.

The Company accounted for the changes made to its Preferred Stock in connection with the exchange agreement as an extinguishment in accordance with FASB’s Codification at ASC 260-10-S99-2. Therefore, in calculating the net income (loss) applicable to common shareholders, the Company has recognized an imputed amount for the extinguishment which represents the carrying amount of securities and other consideration issuable pursuant to the original terms in excess of the fair value of all securities and other consideration transferred in the transaction.

Common Stock

Stock Option Plan

In October 2005, the Company adopted the ViewCast 2005 Stock Incentive Plan, which replaced the Company’s expired stock option plans (the 1995 Employee Stock Option Plan and the 1995 Director Stock Option Plan) and become the sole plan for providing equity-based incentive compensation to the Company’s employees, non-employee directors and other service providers. Options granted under the expired stock option plans will continue to be subject to the terms of those plans in effect before the effective date of the 2005 Stock Incentive Plan. The plan allows for the grant of stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units, stock appreciation rights, performance awards and other incentive awards to employees, non-employee directors and other service providers of the Company and its affiliates who are in a position to make a significant contribution to the success of the Company and its affiliates. The purposes of the plan are to attract and retain individuals, further align employee and stockholder interests, and closely link compensation with Company performance. The plan is administered by the Board of Directors.

The maximum number of shares available for grant under the plan is 6,000,000 shares of Common Stock, plus any shares of Common Stock subject to outstanding awards under the Company’s prior stock option plans as of the date the plan was approved by ViewCast’s stockholders that later cease to be subject to such awards for any reason other than such awards having been exercised or expired. The number of shares available for award under the plan is subject to adjustment for certain corporate changes in accordance with the provisions of the plan.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan

In October 2005, the Company established the ViewCast 2005 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “ESPP”) to provide employees of the Company with an opportunity to purchase common stock through payroll deductions. Under the ESPP, 1,000,000 shares of Common Stock have been reserved for issuance, subject to certain antidilution adjustments. The ESPP is intended to qualify as an employee stock purchase plan within the meaning of Section 423 of the IRS Code.

 

34


Table of Contents

Under the ESPP, each offering is for a period of six months ending March 31 and September 30 of each year. Eligible employees may participate in the ESPP by authorizing payroll deductions during an offering period within a percentage range determined by the Board of Directors. Initially, the amount of authorized payroll deductions is not more than ten percent of an employee’s cash compensation during an offering period, and not more than $25,000 per year. Amounts withheld from payroll are applied at the end of each offering period to purchase shares of Common Stock. Participants may withdraw their contributions at any time before stock is purchased, and in the event of withdrawal such contributions will be returned to participants. The purchase price of the Common Stock is equal to ninety-five percent (95%) of the market price of Common Stock at the end of each offering period (the “Exercise Date”). The Purchase Price may be changed by the Board or its committee but in any case shall never be lower than 85% to the fair market value of a share of Common Stock on the Exercise Date. ViewCast pays all expenses incurred in connection with the implementation and administration of the ESPP.

During 2010 and 2011, 53,603 and 45,624 shares of common stock were issued under the ESPP.

12. Employee Benefit Plan

Effective March 1, 1997, the Company adopted a profit sharing plan pursuant to Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code whereby participants may elect to contribute up to sixty percent (60%) of their compensation subject to statutory limitations. The plan provides for discretionary matching and profit sharing contributions by the Company. All employees are eligible to participate in the plan provided they meet minimum age requirement of eighteen. The Company discontinued matching contributions under this plan in April 2009. The Company made $0 and $40,906 matching contributions to this plan, for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2011, respectively. Effective January 1, 2011 through November 1, 2011 the Company provided matching contributions under this plan.

13. Commitments and Contingencies

The Company leases offices and manufacturing space at various locations under non-cancelable operating leases extending through 2021. The Company also leases certain office and computer equipment under non-cancelable operating leases. Future minimum operating lease payments with initial or remaining terms of one year or more are as follows:

On May 4, 2011, the Company entered into a Preferred Stock Exchange Agreement (the “Exchange Agreement”) with H.T. Ardinger Jr. (“Ardinger”), Ardinger Family Partnership, Ltd. (the “Ardinger Partnership”), Adkins Family Partnership, Ltd. and RDB Limited, p/k/a Baker Family Partnership, Ltd. to convert the outstanding shares of its Series B Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series B Preferred Stock”) and Series C Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series C Preferred Stock”) and to restructure Series E Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock (the “Series E Preferred Stock”), and collectively with the Series B Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock, (the “Preferred Stock”). The exchange agreement and all related changes to the Preferred Stock (collectively the “Preferred Stock Redemption”) have been accounted for as an extinguishment of Preferred Stock.

As of May 4, 2011, 800,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock were outstanding at a stated value of $10 per share. Ardinger, a principal stockholder of the Company, held 400,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock, with the remainder held by other existing stockholders. The Series B Preferred Stock was convertible into common stock of the Company at a fixed price of $3.625 per share, subject to certain requirements, which was modified under the Exchange Agreement to $0.60 per share of underlying Common Stock and was converted on May 4, 2011 into a total of 13,333,333 shares of Common Stock.

As of May 4, 2011, 200,000 shares of Series C Preferred Stock were outstanding at a stated value of $10 per share held by Ardinger. The Series C Preferred Stock was convertible into common stock of the Company at a fixed price of $0.60 per share, subject to certain requirements, which remained the conversion price under the Exchange Agreement and was converted on May 4, 2011 into a total of 3,333,333 shares of Common Stock.

Holders of Series B Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock had no voting rights except on amendments to the Company’s Articles of Incorporation to change the authorized shares, or par value, or to alter or change the powers or preferences of their respective preferred stock issues. The Series B Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock carried cumulative dividends of 8% and 9% per year, respectively, and were generally payable semi-annually in arrears in cash or common stock of the Company, at the Company’s option. On May 4, 2011, under the Exchange Agreement, when the Series B Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock were converted into Common Stock, any and all dividends, owed or owing on the Preferred Stock, were cancelled.

The Ardinger Family Partnership, Ltd. holds 80,000 shares of ViewCast’s Series E Preferred Stock with each share having a stated value of $100 with voting rights on an “as converted’ basis with the common stock and accrues no dividends. The liquidation preference on the Series E Preferred Stock is the $100 per share stated value multiplied by 107% if the liquidation event occurs after December 11, 2010.

Under the Exchange Agreement, until May 4, 2012 (the “Temporary Conversion Period”), each outstanding share of Series E Preferred Stock shall be convertible, at the option of the holder of such Series E Preferred Stock, into shares of Common Stock at a temporary conversion price of $0.50 per share of underlying Common Stock (the “Temporary Conversion Price”). If at any time during the Temporary Conversion Period, the Company completes, in one transaction or a series of related transactions, the placement(s) of Common Stock for total aggregate net proceeds of at least $7,000,000 (a “Securities Placement”), each outstanding share of Series E Preferred Stock shall automatically convert into the corresponding number of shares of Common Stock at the Temporary Conversion Price. During the Temporary Conversion Period, if any shares of Series E Preferred Stock are converted, all other outstanding shares of Series E Preferred Stock shall also automatically convert at the Temporary Conversion Price. Upon a conversion of the shares of Series E Preferred Stock during the Temporary Conversion Period, either voluntarily or as a result of a Securities Placement, the Company shall issue 16,000,000 shares of Common Stock in exchange for the 80,000 outstanding shares of Series E preferred stock.

The Company has also agreed under the Exchange Agreement, among other things: (i) that the definition of registrable securities under that certain Registration Rights Agreement, dated December 11, 2006, between the Company and the Ardinger Partnership (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) shall include any shares of Common Stock issued in exchange for the shares of Preferred Stock previously held by Ardinger or the Ardinger Partnership, (ii) that Ardinger shall be a party to the Registration Rights Agreement, and (iii) to use commercially reasonable efforts to: (a) meet the applicable listing requirements of the NASDAQ Stock Market and (b) upon meeting such requirements, list its Common Stock on the NASDAQ Stock Market.

Other than as permitted in the Exchange Agreement, from May 4, 2011 through July 31, 2011, the holders of the shares of Common Stock issued pursuant to the Series B/C Conversion have agreed not to sell or otherwise transfer such shares of Common Stock. Additionally, from August 1, 2011 through January 27, 2012, such holders agreed to limit any sales or transfers of such Common Stock in accordance with the volume limitations of Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), as if such holders were affiliates of the Company. If during the Temporary Conversion Period, a change in control of the Company occurs, these transfer restrictions shall terminate.

Ardinger is the largest stockholder of the Company and the sole general partner of the Ardinger Partnership. Immediately prior to the Series B/C Conversion, Ardinger: (i) directly beneficially held (a) 400,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock and (b) 200,000 shares of Series C Preferred Stock and (ii) indirectly beneficially held, as sole general partner of the Ardinger Partnership, 80,000 shares of Series E Preferred Stock. The Company reimbursed the Ardinger Partnership $10,000 for their legal expenses related to this transaction.

The purchase price per private placement unit was $0.1125707, which was the weighted average closing price for the five trading days immediately prior to December 27, 2011. Pursuant to the Subscription Agreements, the Warrants are exercisable into shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.1238 per share of Common Stock which was 110% of the weighted average closing price for the five trading days immediately prior to December 27, 2011. The Warrants will expire on December 31, 2014.

16. Current Economic Conditions

The current protracted economic decline continues to present companies with difficult circumstances and challenges, which in some cases have resulted in large and unanticipated declines in the fair value of certain assets, declines in the volume of business, constraints on liquidity and difficulty obtaining financing. The financial statements have been prepared using values and information currently available to the Company.

Current economic and financial market conditions could adversely affect the Company’s results of operations in future periods. The current instability in the financial markets may make it difficult for certain of the Company’s customers to obtain financing, which may significantly impact the volume of future sales which could have an adverse impact on the Company’s future operating results.

In addition, given the volatility of current economic conditions, the values of assets and liabilities recorded in the financial statements could change rapidly, resulting in material future adjustments in allowances for accounts receivable, inventory and valuation of intangibles and goodwill.

17. Fair Value Measurements

ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements, defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Topic 820 also specifies a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The standard describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

 

Level 1:    Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
Level 2:    Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities
Level 3:    Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities

Following is a description of the valuation methodologies and inputs used for assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis and recognized in the accompanying balance sheet, as well as the general classification of such assets and liabilities pursuant to the valuation hierarchy.

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

The fair value is estimated using discounted cash flows that are unobservable or that cannot be corroborated by observable market data and, therefore, are classified within Level 3 of the valuation hierarchy.

The following table presents the fair value measurement of assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis and the level within the fair value hierarchy in which the fair value measurements fall at December 31, 2011 for the Ancept Assets:

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. As required by Rule 13a-15(b) under the Exchange Act, our management carried out an evaluation, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2011. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of December 31, 2011, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective in providing such reasonable assurance.

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) of the Company. Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The Company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Management, under the supervision of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on this evaluation, management concluded that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2011 under the criteria set forth in the Internal Control—Integrated Framework.

This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to Section 404 ( c ) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act that permit us to provide only management’s report in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

There have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation that occurred during the Company’s last fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or that is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
