Major competitors include Micros Systems, Inc., NCR Corporation IBM Corporation, and Panasonic Corporation.
Backlog
Due to the nature of the hospitality business, backlog is not significant at any point in time. The Hospitality segment orders are generally of a short-term nature and are usually booked and shipped in less than 12 months.
Research and Development
The highly technical nature of the Company’sCompany's hospitality products requires a significant and continuous research and development effort. Ongoing product research and quality development efforts are an integral part of all activities within the Company. Functional and technical enhancements are actively being made to our products to increase customer satisfaction and maintain the high caliber of ourPAR's software. Research and development expenses were approximately $13.7 million in 2012 and $13.8 million in 2011, $15.9 million in 2010 and $13.6 million in 2009.2011. The Company capitalizes certain software costs in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic No. 985. See Note 1, “Summary"Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,”" to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part IV, Item 15 for further discussion.
Manufacturing and Suppliers
The Company sources and/or assembles some of its products from standard electronic components, fabricated parts such as printed circuit boards, and mechanical components. Many assemblies and components are manufactured by third parties to our specifications. PAR depends on outside suppliers for the continued availability of its assemblies and components. Although most items are generally available from a number of different suppliers, PAR purchases certain final assemblies and components from single sources. Items purchased from single sources include certain POS devices, peripherals, custom molded and tooled components, and electronic assemblies and components. If such a supplier should cease to supply an item, we believe new sources could be found to provide the components. However, added cost and manufacturing delays could result and adversely affect our performance. The Company has not experienced significant delays of this nature in the past, but there can be no assurance that delays in delivery due to supply shortages will not occur in the future.
Intellectual Property
The Company owns or has rights to certain patents, copyrights and trademarks, but believes none of these intellectual property rights provides a material competitive advantage. We relytrademarks. PAR relies upon non-disclosure agreements, license agreements and applicable domestic and foreign patent, copyright and trademark laws for protection of our intellectual property. To the extent such protective measures are unsuccessful, or wethe Company need to enter into protracted litigation to enforce such rights, the Company’sCompany's business could be adversely impacted. Similarly, there is no assurance that the Company’sCompany's products will not become the subject of a third-party claim of infringement or misappropriation. To the extent such claims result in costly litigation or force the Company to enter into royalty or license agreements, rather than enter into a prolonged dispute, our performance could be adversely impacted. The Company also licenses certain third-party software with its products. While we have maintained aPAR maintains strong relationshiprelationships with our licensors, there is no assurance such relationships will continue or that the licenses will be continued under fees and terms acceptable to us.
Government Segment
The Company operates two wholly-owned subsidiaries within the Government segment, PAR Government Systems Corporation (PGSC) and Rome Research Corporation (RRC). PGSC and RRC provide command, control, communications, computers, intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (C4ISR) support to U.S. Department of Defense and other federal agencies.
OurPAR's PGSC subsidiary delivers advanced technology in geospatial intelligence, geographic information systems, and command and control applications. PGSC’sPGSC's offerings support the entire technology lifecycle to include requirements analysis, design specification, development, implementation, installation, test and evaluation.
OurPAR's RRC subsidiary provides worldwide communication and information technology support. RRC’sRRC's technical services support satellite operations and communications, battlefield networks, the global information grid, and various other information technology requirements ranging from advanced systems to basic help desk support. RRC supports the U.S. Navy, the U.S. Army, the U.S. Air Force and the Department of State with operations worldwide.
PAR pursues businesses in four service areas:
Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (ISR): The Company provides a variety of geospatial intelligence solutions including full motion video, geospatial information assurance, raster imagery, and light detection and ranging (LiDAR). In depth expertise in these domains provides government customers and large systems integrators with key technologies supporting a range of applications from strategic enterprise systems to tactical individual users. Furthermore, PAR has developed a number of products relative to these advanced technologies and provides integration and training support.
Systems Engineering & Evaluation: We integrateThe Company integrates and testtests Electro-Optical (EO), Infrared (IR), Radar, and multi/hyper-spectral sensor systems for a broad range of government and industry surveillance applications. PAR developed the Multi-mission Advanced Sensor System (MASS), which assists with counter-terrorism, first responder, environmental, and drug enforcement applications. In addition, the Company designs and integrates radar sensor systems including experimentation, demonstration, and test support.
Communications Systems Support: The Company provides a wide range of technical and support services to sustain mission critical components of the Department of Defense Global Information Grid (GIG). These services include continuous operations, system enhancements and maintenance of very low frequency (VLF), high frequency (HF) and very high frequency (VHF) radio transmitter/receiver facilities, and extremely high frequency (EHF) and super high frequency (SHF) satellite communication heavy earth terminal facilities. These Department of Defense communications systems services are provided at customer locations in and outside of the continental United States. The various facilities, operating 24 x 7, are integral to the command and control of the nation’snation's air, land and naval forces and those of United States coalition allies.
Information Systems: The Company provides technical expertise to support the government's information management systems, primarily net-centric information technology services in support of Department of Defense customers. This on-site support includes infrastructure sustainment, configuration management, system staging, information assurance and network security tasks.
Products
Although a minor part of ourthe Company's Government business, we marketPAR markets a software product line built on PAR’sPAR's background and expertise in both Federal Government and commercial video standards and visualization products. The centerpiece of the PAR software is Gv2F™, a software toolkit for developers seeking to integrate full-motion video (FMV) into their geospatial software products. The toolkit provides simple yet robust C++, C#, and Java Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) and is fully compliant with Commercial MPEG-2 Transport Program Stream and Motion Imagery Standards Board (MISB) Key Length Value (KLV) meta-data standards. Additional software in the Gv product line provide further tools for visualizing and manipulating motion and still imagery files. PAR also sells encryption and watermarking technology, called VectorLock®, for management of high value Geographic Information System (GIS) information.
Government Contracts
The Company performs work for U.S. Government agencies under firm fixed-price, cost-plus-fixed-fee, and time-and-material contracts. The majority of these contracts have a period of performance of one to five years. There are several risks associated with Government contracting. For instance, contracts may be reduced in size, scope and value, as well as modified, delayed and/or cancelled depending upon the Government’sGovernment's requests, budgets, policies and/or changes in regulations. Contracts can also be terminated for the convenience of the Government at any time the Government believes that such termination would be in its best interests. In this circumstance, the Company is entitled to receive payments for its allowable costs and, in general, a proportionate share of its fee or profit for the work actually performed. The Company may also perform work prior to formal authorization or prior to adjustment of the contract price for increased work scope, change orders and other funding adjustments. In this situation, the Company is performing the work under our own risk and would be responsible for any costs incurred during this time. Additionally, the Defense Contract Audit Agency regularly audits the financial records of the Company. Such audits can result in adjustments to contract costs and fees. Audits have been completed through the Company’sCompany's fiscal year 2006 and have not resulted in any material adjustments.
Marketing and Competition
Contracts are obtained principally through competitive proposals in response to solicitations from government organizations and prime contractors. In addition, the Company sometimes obtains contracts by submitting unsolicited proposals. Although the Company believes it is well positioned in its business areas, competition for Government contracts is intense. Many of the Company’sCompany's competitors are major corporations, or subsidiaries thereof, that are significantly larger and have substantially greater financial resources. The Company also competes with many smaller companies, many of which are designated by the Government for preferential “set aside”"set aside" treatment, that target particular segments of the government contract market. The principal competitive factors are past performance, the ability to perform the statement of work, price, technological capabilities, management capabilities and service. Many of the Company’sCompany's Department of Defense customers are now migrating to commercial software standards, applications, and solutions.
Backlog
The value of existing Government contracts at December 31, 2012, net of amounts relating to work performed to that date was approximately $139.5 million, of which $52.7 million was funded. The value of existing Government contracts at December 31, 2011, net of amounts relating to work performed to that date was approximately $134.4 million, of which $51.4 million was funded. The value of existing Government contracts at December 31, 2010, net of amounts relating to work performed to that date was approximately $157.8 million, of which $34.2 million was funded. Funded amounts represent those amounts committed under contract by Government agencies and prime contractors. The December 31, 20112012 Government contract backlog of $134.4$139.5 million represents firm, existing contracts. Approximately $72Of this backlog amount, approximately $74.1 million of this amount is expected to be completed in calendar year 2012,2013, as funding is committed.
As of December 31, 2011,2012, the Company had 1,4081,382 employees, approximately 58%59% of whom were engaged in the Company’sCompany's Hospitality segment, 35%37% of whom were in the Government segment, and 7%4% of whom were corporate employees.
Due to the highly technical nature of the Company’sCompany's business, the Company’sCompany's future can be significantly influenced by its ability to attract and retain its technical staff. The Company believes it has and will be able to continue to fulfill its near-term needs for technical staff.
Approximately 11% of the Company’sCompany's employees are covered by collective bargaining agreements. The Company considers its employee relations to be good.
Exchange Certifications
The certification of the Chief Executive Officer of PAR required by Section 303A.12(a) of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) Listed Company Manual, relating to PAR's compliance with the NYSE's corporate governance listing standards, was submitted to the NYSE on July 8, 20113, 2012 with no qualifications.
We operateThe Company operates in a dynamic and rapidly changing environment involving numerous risks and uncertainties. The following section describes some, but not all, of the risks and uncertainties that could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and the market price of our common stock, and could cause our actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in our forward-looking statements.
Our future operating results are difficult to predict and are subject to fluctuations.
Our future operating results, including revenues, gross margins, operating expenses and net income (loss), have fluctuated on a quarterly and annual basis, are difficult to predict, and may be materially affected by a number of factors, many of which are beyond our control, including:
| · | the effects of adverse macroeconomic conditions in the United States and international markets, especially in light of the continued challenges in global credit and financial markets; |
| · | changes in customer demand for our products; |
| · | the timing of our new product announcements or introductions, as well as those by our competitors; |
| · | the level of demand and purchase orders from our customers, and our ability to adjust to changes in demand and purchase order patterns; |
| · | the ability of our third party suppliers, subcontractors and manufactures to supply us with sufficient quantities of high quality products or components, on a timely basis; |
| · | the effectiveness of our efforts to reduce product costs and manage operating expenses; |
| · | the ability to hire, retain and motivate qualified employees to meet the demands of our customers; |
| · | intellectual property disputes; |
| · | potential significant litigation-related costs; |
| · | costs related to compliance with increasing worldwide environmental and other regulations; and |
| · | the effects of public health emergencies, natural disasters, security risk, terrorist activities, international conflicts and other events beyond our control. |
As a result of these and other factors, there can be no assurance that the Company will not experience significant fluctuations in future operating results on a quarterly or annual basis. In addition, if our operating results do not meet the expectations of investors, the market price of our common stock may decline.
Our stock price has been volatile and may fluctuate in the future.
The trading price of our common stock has and may continue to fluctuate significantly. Such fluctuations may be influenced by many factors, including:
| · | the volatility of the financial markets; |
| · | uncertainty regarding the prospects of domestic and foreign economies; |
| · | uncertainty regarding domestic and international political conditions, including tax policies; |
| · | our performance and prospects; |
| · | the performance and prospects of our major customers; |
| · | investor perception of our company and the industry in which we operate; |
| · | the limited availability of earnings estimates and supporting research by investment analysts; |
| · | the liquidity of the market for our common stock; and |
| · | the concentration of beneficial ownership of our common stock by Dr. John W. Sammon, Director and Chairman Emeritus of PAR’sPAR's Board of Directors. |
Public stock markets have recently experienced price and trading volume volatility. This volatility significantly and negatively affected the market prices of securities of many technology companies and the return of such volatility could result in broad market fluctuations that could materially and adversely affect the market price of our common stock for indefinite periods. In addition, fluctuations in our stock price, volume of shares traded, and changes in our trading multiples may make our stock attractive to certain categories of investors who often shift funds into and out of stocks rapidly, exacerbating price fluctuations in either direction.
A decline in the volume of purchases made by any one of the company’scompany's major customers would materially adversely affect our business.
A small number of related customers have historically accounted for a majority of the Company’sCompany's net revenues in any given fiscal period. For each of the fiscal years ended December 31,2011, 2010
2012 and 2009,2011, aggregate sales to our top two Hospitality segment customers, McDonald’sMcDonald's Corporation and Yum! Brands, Inc., amounted to 42%, 46%35% and 39%42% of total revenues, respectively. Most of the Company’sCompany's customers are not obligated to provide us with any minimum level of future purchases or with binding forecasts of product purchases for any future period. In addition, major customers may elect to delay or otherwise change the timing of orders in a manner that could adversely affect the Company’sCompany's quarterly and annual results of operations. There can be no assurance our current customers will continue to place orders with us, or we will be able to obtain orders from new customers.
An inability to produce new products that keep pace with technological developments and changing market conditions could result in a loss of market share.
The products we sell are subject to rapid and continual changes in technology. Our competitors offer products that have an increasingly wider range of features and capabilities. We believe that in order to compete effectively, we must provide systems incorporating new technologies at competitive prices. There can be no assurance we will be able to continue funding research and development at levels sufficient to enhance our current product offerings, or the Company will be able to develop and introduce on a timely basis, new products that keep pace with technological developments and emerging industry standards and address the evolving needs of customers. There also can be no assurance we will not experience difficulties that will result in delaying or preventing the successful development, introduction and marketing of new products in our existing markets, or our new products and product enhancements will adequately meet the requirements of the marketplace or achieve any significant degree of market acceptance. Likewise, there can be no assurance as to the acceptance of our products in new markets, nor can there be any assurance as to the success of our penetration of these markets, nor to the revenue or profit margins realized by the Company with respect to these products. If any of our competitors were to introduce superior software products at competitive prices, or if our software products no longer meet the needs of the marketplace due to technological developments and emerging industry standards, our software products may no longer retain any significant market share.
We generate much of our revenue from the hospitality industry and therefore are subject to decreased revenues in the event of a downturn in that industry.
For the fiscal years ended December 31, 2011, 20102012 and 2009,2011, we derived 70%, 72%64% and 65%70%, respectively, of our total revenues from the hospitality industry, primarily the QSR market. Consequently, our hospitality technology product sales are dependent in large part on the health of the hospitality industry, which in turn is dependent on the domestic and international economy, as well as factors such as consumer buying preferences and weather conditions. Instabilities or downturns in the hospitality market could disproportionately impact our revenues, as clients either may exit the industry or delay, cancel or reduce planned expenditures for our products. Although we believe we can succeed in the quick service restaurant sector of the hospitality industry in a competitive environment, given the cyclical nature of that industry, there can be no assurance our profitability and growth will continue.
we face extensive competition in the markets in which we operate, and our failure to compete effectively could result in price reductions and/or decreased demand for our products and services.
Several competing suppliers offer hospitality management systems similar to ours. Some of these competitors are larger than PAR and have access to substantially greater financial and other resources and, consequently, may be able to obtain more favorable terms than we can for components and subassemblies incorporated into these hospitality technology products. The rapid rate of technological change in the Hospitality segment makes it likely we will face competition from new products designed by companies not currently competing with us. These new products may have features not currently available from us. We believe our competitive ability depends on our total solution offering, our experience in the industry, our product development and systems integration capability, our direct sales force and our customer service organization. There is no assurance,assurance; however, we will be able to compete effectively in the hospitality technology market in the future.
Our Government contracting business has been focused on niche offerings, reflecting our expertise, primarily in the areas of Communications Systems Support, Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (ISR), Systems Engineering & Evaluation and Information Systems services. Many of our competitors are larger and have substantially greater financial resources and broader capabilities in information technology. We also compete with smaller companies, many of which are designated by the Government for preferential “set aside”"set aside" treatment, that target particular segments of the government market and may have superior capabilities in a particular segment. These companies may be better positioned to obtain contracts through competitive proposals. Consequently, there are no assurances we will continue to win Government contracts as a direct contractor or indirect subcontractor.
we may not be able to meet the unique operational, legal and financial challenges that relate to our international operations, which may limit the growth of our business.
For the fiscal years ended December 31, 2011, 20102012, and 2009,2011, our net revenues from sales outside the United States were 13%, 11%15% and 11%13%, respectively, of the Company’sCompany's total revenues. We anticipate international sales will continue to account for a significant portion of sales. We intend to continue to expand our operations outside the United States and to enter additional international markets, which will require significant management attention and financial resources. Our operating results are subject to the risks inherent in international sales, including, but not limited to, regulatory requirements, political and economic changes and disruptions, geopolitical disputes and war, transportation delays, difficulties in staffing and managing foreign sales operations, and potentially adverse tax consequences. In addition, fluctuations in exchange rates may render our products less competitive relative to local product offerings, or could result in foreign exchange losses, depending upon the currency in which we sell our products. There can be no assurance these factors will not have a material adverse affect on our future international sales and, consequently, on our operating results.
We derive a portion of our revenue from U.S. government contracts, which contain provisions unique to public sector customers, including the U.S. government’sgovernment's right to modify or terminate these contracts at any time.
For the fiscal years ended December 31, 2011, 20102012 and 2009,2011, we derived 30%, 28%36% and 35%30%, respectively, of our total revenues from contracts to provide technical expertise to Government organizations and prime contractors. In any year, the majority of our Government contracting activity is associated with the U.S. Department of Defense. Contracts with the U.S. Government typically provide that such contracts are terminable, in full or in part, at the convenience of the U.S. Government. If the U.S. Government terminated a contract on this basis, we would be entitled to receive payment for our allowable costs and, in general, a proportionate share of our fee or profit for work actually performed. Most U.S. Government contracts are also subject to modification or termination in the event of changes in funding. As such, we may perform work prior to formal authorization, or the contract prices may be adjusted for changes in scope of work. Termination or modification of a substantial number of our U.S. Government contracts could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
In addition, the general uncertainty in U.S. defense total workforce policies (military, civilian and contract), procurement cycles and spending levels for the next several years may impact the performance of this business. Specifically, the Company could experience reductions in revenue as a result of the U.S. Government in-sourcing its current service contracts or the Company could experience a reduction of funding due to U.S. Government sequester or other funding reductions.
We perform work for various U.S. Government agencies and departments pursuant to fixed-price, cost-plus fixed fee and time-and-material prime contracts and subcontracts. Approximately 74%51% of the revenue that we derived from government contracts for the year ended December 31, 20112012 came from fixed-price or time-and-material contracts. The balance of the revenue that we derived from Government contracts in 20112012 primarily came from cost-plus fixed fee contracts. Most of our contracts are for one-year to five-year terms.
While fixed-price contracts allow us to benefit from cost savings, they also expose us to the risk of cost overruns. If the initial estimates we use for calculating the contract price are incorrect, we can incur losses on those contracts. In addition, some of our governmental contracts have provisions relating to cost controls, and audit rights and if we fail to meet the terms specified in those contracts, then we may not realize their full benefits. Lower earnings caused by cost overruns would have an adverse effect on our financial results.
Under time-and-materials contracts, we are paid for labor at negotiated hourly billing rates and for certain expenses. Under cost-plus fixed fee contracts, we are reimbursed for allowable costs and paid a fixed fee. However, if our costs under either of these types of contract exceed the contract ceiling or are not allowable under the provisions of the contract or applicable regulations, we may not be able to obtain reimbursement for all of our costs.
If we are unable to control costs incurred in performing under each type of contract, such inability to control costs could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and operating results. Cost over-runs also may adversely affect our ability to sustain existing programs and obtain future contract awards.
a significant portion of our total assets consists of goodwill and identifiable intangible assets, which are subject to a periodic impairment analysis and a significant impairment determination in any future period, could have an adverse effect on our results of operations even without a significant loss of revenue or increase in cash expenses attributable to such period.
We have goodwill and identifiable intangible assets at December 31, 20112012 totaling approximately $6.9$6.8 million and $15.9$11.7 million, respectively,respectively; resulting primarily from business acquisitions and internally developed capitalized software. The Company tests goodwill for impairment annually or more frequently if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying amount. We describe the impairment testing process and results of this testing more thoroughly herein in Item 7 under the heading “Management’s"Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Critical Accounting Policies.”" If we determine an impairment has occurred at any point in time, we will be required to reduce goodwill or identifiable intangible assets on our balance sheet.

The Company does not usually enter into long term contracts with its major Hospitality segment customers. The Company commits to purchasing inventory from its suppliers based on a combination of internal forecasts and actual orders from customers. This process, along with good relations with suppliers, minimizes the working capital investment required by the Company. Although the Company lists two major customers, McDonald’sMcDonald's and Yum! Brands, it sells to hundreds of individual franchisees of these corporations, each of which is individually responsible for its own debts. These broadly made sales substantially reduce the impact on the Company’sCompany's liquidity if one individual franchisee reduces the volume of its purchases from the Company in a given year. The Company, based on internal forecasts, believes its existing cash, line of credit facilities and its anticipated operating cash flow will be sufficient to meet its cash requirements through the next twelve months. However, the Company may be required, or could elect, to seek additional funding prior to that time. The Company’sCompany's future capital requirements will depend on many factors including its rate of revenue growth, the timing and extent of spending to support product development efforts, potential growth through strategic acquisition, expansion of sales and marketing, the timing of introductions of new products and enhancements to existing products, and market acceptance of its products. The Company cannot assure additional equity or debt financing will be available on acceptable terms or at all. The Company’sCompany's sources of liquidity beyond twelve months, in management’smanagement's opinion, will be its cash balances on hand at that time, funds provided by operations, funds available through its lines of credit and the long-term credit facilities that it can arrange.

Critical Accounting Policies
The Company’sCompany's consolidated financial statements are based on the application of U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). GAAP requires the use of estimates, assumptions, judgments and subjective interpretations of accounting principles that have an impact on the assets, liabilities, revenue and expense amounts reported. The Company believes its use of estimates and underlying accounting assumptions adhere to GAAP and are consistently applied. Valuations based on estimates are reviewed for reasonableness and adequacy on a consistent basis throughout the Company. Primary areas where financial information of the Company is subject to the use of estimates, assumptions and the application of judgment include revenue recognition, accounts receivable, inventories, goodwill and intangible assets, and taxes.
Revenue Recognition Policy
Product revenues consist of sales of the Company’sCompany's standard point-of-sale and property management systems of the Hospitality segment. Product revenues include both hardware and software sales. The Company also records service revenues relating to its standard point-of-sale and property management systems of the Hospitality segment.
Hardware
Revenue recognition on hardware sales occurs upon delivery to the customer site (or when shipped for systems that are not installed by the Company) when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the price is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured.
Software
Revenue recognition on software sales generally occurs upon delivery to the customer site (or when shipped for systems that are not installed by the Company), when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the price is fixed or determinable, and collectability is probable. For software sales where the Company is the sole party that has the proprietary knowledge to install the software, revenue is recognized upon installation and when the system is ready to go live.
Service
Service
Service revenue consists of installation and training services, support maintenance, and field and depot repair. Installation and training service revenue are based upon standard hourly/daily rates, and revenue is recognized as the services are performed. Support maintenance and field and depot repair are provided to customers either on a time and materials basis or under a maintenance contract. Services provided on a time and materials basis are recognized as the services are performed. Service revenues from maintenance contracts are recorded as deferred revenue when billed to the customer and are recognized ratably over the underlying contract period.
The individual producthardware, service, and servicesoftware offerings that are included in arrangements with our customers are identified and priced separately to the customer based upon the stand alone price for each individual producthardware, service, or servicesoftware sold in the arrangement irrespective of the combination of products and services which are included in a particular arrangement. As such, the units of accounting are based on each individual producthardware, service, and servicesoftware sold, and revenue is allocated to each element based on vendor specific objective evidence (VSOE) of fair value. VSOE of fair value for each individual producthardware, service, and servicesoftware is based on separate individual prices of these products and services. The sales price used to establish fair value is the sales price of the element when it is sold individually in a separate arrangement and not as a separate element in a multiple element arrangement. Revenue recognition for complex contractual arrangements, especially those with multiple elements, requires a significant level of judgment and is based upon review of specific contracts, past experiences, the selling price of undelivered elements when sold separately, creditworthiness of customers, international laws and other factors.
In situations where PAR's solutions contain software that is more than incidental, revenue related to software and software related elements is recognized in accordance with authoritative guidance on software revenue recognition. For the software and software-related elements of such transactions, revenue is allocated based on the relative fair value of each element, and fair value is determined by vender specific objective evidence (VSOE). If the Company cannot objectively determine the fair value of any undelivered element included in such multiple-element arrangements, the Company defers the revenue until all elements are delivered and services have been performed, or until fair value can objectively be determined for any remaining undelivered elements.
Government Contracts
The Company’sCompany's contract revenues generated by the Government segment result primarily from contract services performed for the U.S. Government under a variety of cost-plus fixed fee, time-and-material, and fixed-price contracts. Revenue on cost-plus fixed fee contracts is recognized based on allowable costs for labor hours delivered, as well as other allowable costs plus the applicable fee. Revenue on time and material contracts is recognized by multiplying the number of direct labor hours delivered in the performance of the contract by the contract billing rates and adding other direct costs as incurred. Revenue from fixed-price contracts is recognized as labor hours are delivered, which approximates the straight-line basis of the life of the contract. The Company’sCompany's obligation under these contracts is to provide labor hours to conduct research or to staff facilities with no other deliverables or performance obligations. Anticipated losses on all contracts are recorded in full when identified. Unbilled accounts receivable are stated in the Company’sCompany's consolidated financial statements at their estimated realizable value. Contract costs, including indirect expenses, are subject to audit and adjustment through negotiations between the Company and U.S. Government representatives.
Accounts Receivable-Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
Allowances for doubtful accounts are based on estimates of probable losses related to accounts receivable balances. The establishment of allowances requires the use of judgment and assumptions regarding probable losses on receivable balances. We continuously monitor collections and payments from our customers and maintain a provision for estimated credit losses based on our historical experience and any specific customer collection issues that we have identified. While such credit losses have historically been within our expectations and appropriate reserves have been established, we cannot guarantee that we will continue to experience the same credit loss rates that we have experienced in the past. Thus, if the financial condition of our customers were to deteriorate, our actual losses may exceed our estimates, and additional allowances would be required.
Inventories
The Company’sCompany's inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market, with cost determined using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. The Company uses certain estimates and judgments and considers several factors including product demand, changes in customer requirements and changes in technology to provide for excess and obsolescence reserves to properly value inventory.
Capitalized Software Development Costs
The Company capitalizes certain costs related to the development of computer software used in its Hospitality segment. Software development costs incurred prior to establishing technological feasibility are charged to operations and included in research and development costs. The technological feasibility of a computer software product is established when the Company has completed all planning, designing, coding, and testing activities that are necessary to establish that the product can be produced to meet its design specifications including functions, features, and technical performance requirements. Software development costs incurred after establishing technological feasibility (as defined within ASC 985-20) are capitalized and amortized over the estimated economic lifeon a product-by-product basis when the product is available for general release to customers.
Annual amortization, charged to cost of sales when the product is available for general release to customers, is computed using the greater of (a) the straight-line method over the remaining estimated economic life of the product, generally three to seven years or (b) the ratio that current gross revenues for a product bear to the total of current and anticipated future gross revenues for that product.
Goodwill
The Company tests goodwill for impairment on an annual basis, or more often if events or circumstances indicate there may be impairment. The Company operates in two business segments, Hospitality and Government. Goodwill impairment testing is performed at the sub-segment level (referred to as a reporting unit). The three reporting units utilized by the Company for its impairment testing are: Restaurant, Hotel/Resort/Spa, and Government. Goodwill is assigned to a specific reporting unit at the date the goodwill is initially recorded. Once goodwill has been assigned to a specific reporting unit, it no longer retains its association with a particular acquisition, and all of the activities within a reporting unit, whether acquired or organically grown, are available to support the value of the goodwill.
Goodwill impairment analysis is a two-step test. The first step, used to identify potential impairment, involves comparing each reporting unit’sunit's fair value to its carrying value including goodwill. If the fair value of a reporting unit exceeds its carrying value, applicable goodwill is considered not to be impaired. If the carrying value exceeds fair value, there is an indication of impairment, at which time a second step would be performed to measure the amount of impairment. The second step involves calculating an implied fair value of goodwill for each reporting unit for which the first step indicated impairment.
During the second quarter of 2011, the Company determined as a result of the decline in the stock price that occurred during the second quarter, a goodwill impairment triggering event had occurred. The fair value of the Company’s common shares declined from $4.60 per share at April 1, 2011 to $3.83 per share at June 30, 2011, resulting in the Company no longer being able to reconcile the aggregate fair value of its reporting units to its market capitalization after consideration of a reasonable control premium. Although there was no significant adverse changeWith respect to the long term financial outlook of any of its businesses, the Company concluded a triggering event had occurredGovernment and as a result, performed additional analyses over the valuation of its reporting units in accordance with the relevant accounting rules, recording a non-cash impairment charge of $20.2 million to its goodwill in the second quarter of 2011. In addition, as part of this goodwill triggering event assessment, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $580,000 associated with its indefinite lived intangible assets. Following the impairment charges, the Restaurant reporting unit did not carry any residual goodwill, while the Hotel/Resort/Spa reporting unit's remaining goodwill was $6.1 million. The fair value ofunits, the Government reporting unit was substantially in excess of its carrying value; therefore, no goodwill impairment was noted.
The Company utilizes three different methodologies in performing its goodwill impairment test for each reporting unit.test. These methodologies include both an income approach, namely a discounted cash flow method, and two market approaches, namely the guideline public company method and quoted price method. TheAs a result of the write-off of goodwill recorded in 2011, the Company did not utilize the discounted cash flow method was weighted 80% infor its Restaurant reporting unit as this reporting unit no longer carries a goodwill balance. As such, the fair value calculation, while the public company method and quoted price method were weightedCompany has applied a 50% weight to each at 10% of the fair value calculation. Theaforementioned market approaches for this reporting unit. Other than the aforementioned change, the valuation methodologies and weightings used in the current year are generally consistent with those used in the Company’sCompany's past annual impairment tests.
The discounted cash flow method derives a value by determining the present value of a projected level of income stream, including a terminal value. This method involves the present value of a series of estimated future cash flows at the valuation date by the application of a discount rate, one which a prudent investor would require before making an investment in the equity of the Company. The Company considers this method to be most reflective of a market participant’sparticipant's view of fair value given the current market conditions, as it is based on the Company’sCompany's forecasted results and, therefore, established its weighting at 80% of the fair value calculation.
Key assumptions within the Company’sCompany's discounted cash flow model utilized for its annual impairment test included projected financial operating results, a long term growth rate of 3% (beyond five years) and discount rates ranging from 21%17% to 26%27%, depending on the reporting unit. As stated above, as the discounted cash flow method derives value from the present value of a projected level of income stream, a modification to the Company’sCompany's projected operating results including changes to the long term growth rate could impact the fair value. The present value of the cash flows is determined using a discount rate based on the capital structure and capital costs of comparable public companies, as well as company-specific risk premium, as identified by the Company. A change to the discount rate could impact the fair value determination.
The market approach is a generally-accepted way of determining a value indication of a business, business ownership interest, security or intangible asset by using one or more methods that compare the subject to similar businesses, business ownership interests, securities or intangible assets that have been sold. There are two methodologies considered under the market approach: the public company method and the quoted price method.
The public company method and quoted price method of appraisal are based on the premise that pricing multiples of publicly traded companies can be used as a tool to be applied in valuing closely held companies. The mechanics of the method require the use of the stock price in conjunction with other factors to create a pricing multiple that can be used, with certain adjustments, to apply against the subject’ssubject's similar factor to determine an estimate of value for the subject company. The Company considered these methods appropriate as they provide an indication of fair value as supported by current market conditions. The Company established its weighting at 10% of the fair value calculation for each method.
The most critical assumption underlying the market approaches utilized by the Company are the comparable companies utilized. Each market approach described above estimates revenue and earnings multiples for the Company based on its comparable companies. As such, a change to the comparable companies could have an impact on the fair value determination.
The amount of goodwill carried by the Hotel/Resort/Spa and Government reporting units is $6.1 million and $0.7 million, respectively. The estimated fair value of the Hotel/Resort/Spa reporting unit exceeds its carrying value by approximately 6%14%. The estimated fair value of the Government reporting unit is substantially in excess of its carrying value.
Hotel /Resort/Spa:
In deriving its fair value estimates, the Company has utilized key assumptions built on the current core business adjusted to reflect anticipated revenue increases from continued investment in its next generation software. These assumptions, specifically those included within the discounted cash flow estimate, are comprised of the revenue growth rate, gross margin, operating expenses, working capital requirements, and depreciation and amortization expense.
The Company has utilized annual revenue growth rates ranging between 5% and 46%27%. The high end growth rate reflects the Company’sCompany's projected revenues resulting from the release of the Company’s next generation software platform, ATRIO. This software platform will expand the Company’sCompany's capabilities into new markets. The Company believes these estimates are reasonable given the size of the overall market which it will enter, combined with the projected market share the Company expects to achieve. The projected revenue growth rates ultimately trend to an estimated long term growth rate of 3%.
The Company has utilized gross margin estimates materially consistent with historical gross margins achieved. Estimates of operating expenses, working capital requirements and depreciation and amortization expense utilized for this reporting unit are generally consistent with actual historical amounts, adjusted to reflect its continued investment and projected revenue growth from ATRIO. The Company believes utilization of actual historical results adjusted to reflect its continued investment in ATRIO is an appropriate basis supporting the fair value of the Hotel/Resort/Spa reporting unit.
Lastly, the Company utilized a discount rate of approximately 26%27% for this reporting unit. This estimate was derived through a combination of current risk-free interest rate data, financial data from companies that PAR has deemed as its competitors, and was based on volatility between the Company’sCompany's historical financial projections and actual results achieved.
The current economic conditions and the continued volatility in the U.S. and in many other countries in which the Company operates could contribute to decreased consumer confidence and continued economic uncertainty which may adversely impact the Company’sCompany's operating performance. Although the Company has seen an improvement in the markets which it serves, the continued volatility in these markets could have an impact on purchases of the Company’sCompany's products, which could result in a reduction of sales, operating income and cash flows. Reductions in these results could have a material adverse impact on the underlying estimates used in deriving the fair value of the Company’sCompany's reporting units used in support of its annual goodwill impairment test or could result in a triggering event requiring a fair value remeasurement, particularly if the Company is unable to achieve the estimates of revenue growth indicated in the preceding paragraphs. paragraphs. These conditions may result in an impairment charge in future periods.
The Company has reconciled the aggregate estimated fair value of the reporting units to the market capitalization of the consolidated Company, including a reasonable control premium.
Taxes
Taxes
The Company has significant amounts of deferred tax assets that are reviewed for recoverability and valued accordingly. These assets are evaluated by using estimates of future taxable income and the impact of tax planning strategies. Valuations related to tax accruals and assets can be impacted by changes to tax codes, changes in statutory tax rates and the Company’sCompany's estimates of its future taxable income levels.

Based on an evaluation of the Company’sCompany's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”"Exchange Act")) as of December 31, 2011,2012, the end of the period covered by this Annual Report on Form 10-K (the “Evaluation Date”"Evaluation Date"), conducted under the supervision of and with the participation of the Company’sCompany's chief executive officer and chief financial officer, such officers have concluded that the Company’sCompany's disclosure controls and procedures, which are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’sSEC's rules and forms and designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including the chief executive and financial officers, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures, are effective as of the Evaluation Date.
| 2. | Management’sManagement's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. |
PAR’sPAR's management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act. The Company’sCompany's internal control system has been designed to provide reasonable assurance to management and the Board of Directors regarding the preparation and fair presentation of published financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
A company’scompany's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (a) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (b) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (c) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the company’scompany's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. Because of inherent limitations due to, for example, the potential for human error or circumvention of controls, internal controls 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.
PAR’sPAR's management, under the supervision of and with the participation of the Company’sCompany's chief executive officer and chief financial officer, assessed the effectiveness of the Company’sCompany's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2011.2012. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) based on the framework in Internal Control – Integrated Framework. Based on its assessment, based on those criteria, management believes that as of December 31, 2011,2012, the Company’sCompany's internal control over financial reporting was effective.
| 3. | Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting. |
During the Company’sCompany's last fiscal quarter of 20112012 (the fourth fiscal quarter), there were no changes in the Company’sCompany's internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13 a-15(f)) that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’sCompany's internal control over financial reporting.

Revenue recognitionRecognition Policy
Product revenues consist of sales of the Company’sCompany's standard point-of-sale and property management systems of the Hospitality segment. Product revenues include both hardware and software sales. The Company also records service revenues relating to its standard point-of-sale and property management systems of the Hospitality segment.
Hardware
Revenue recognition on hardware sales occurs upon delivery to the customer site (or when shipped for systems that are not installed by the Company) when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the price is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured.
Software
Software
Revenue recognition on software sales generally occurs upon delivery to the customer site (or when shipped for systems that are not installed by the Company), when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the price is fixed or determinable, and collectability is probable. For software sales where the Company is the sole party that has the proprietary knowledge to install the software, revenue is recognized upon installation and when the system is ready to go live.
Service
Service revenue consists of installation and training services, support maintenance, and field and depot repair. Installation and training service revenue are based upon standard hourly/daily rates, and revenue is recognized as the services are performed. Support maintenance and field and depot repair are provided to customers either on a time and materials basis or under a maintenance contract. Services provided on a time and materials basis are recognized as the services are performed. Service revenues from maintenance contracts are recorded as deferred revenue when billed to the customer and are recognized ratably over the underlying contract period.
The individual producthardware, service, and servicesoftware offerings that are included in arrangements with our customers are identified and priced separately to the customer based upon the stand alone price for each individual producthardware, service, or servicesoftware sold in the arrangement irrespective of the combination of products and services which are included in a particular arrangement. As such, the units of accounting are based on each individual producthardware, service, and servicesoftware sold, and revenue is allocated to each element based on vendor specific objective evidence (VSOE) of fair value. VSOE of fair value for each individual producthardware, service, and servicesoftware is based on separate individual prices of these products and services. The sales price used to establish fair value is the sales price of the element when it is sold individually in a separate arrangement and not as a separate element in a multiple element arrangement. Revenue recognition for complex contractual arrangements, especially those with multiple elements, requires a significant level of judgment and is based upon review of specific contracts, past experiences, the selling price of undelivered elements when sold separately, creditworthiness of customers, international laws and other factors.
In situations where PAR's solutions contain software that is more than incidental, revenue related to software and software related elements is recognized in accordance with authoritative guidance on software revenue recognition. For the software and software-related elements of such transactions, revenue is allocated based on the relative fair value of each element, and fair value is determined by vender specific objective evidence (VSOE). If the Company cannot objectively determine the fair value of any undelivered element included in such multiple-element arrangements, the Company defers the revenue until all elements are delivered and services have been performed, or until fair value can objectively be determined for any remaining undelivered elements.
Government Contracts
The Company’sCompany's contract revenues generated by the Government segment result primarily from contract services performed for the U.S. Government under a variety of cost-plus fixed fee, time-and-material, and fixed-price contracts. Revenue on cost-plus fixed fee contracts is recognized based on allowable costs for labor hours delivered, as well as other allowable costs plus the applicable fee. Revenue on time and material contracts is recognized by multiplying the number of direct labor hours delivered in the performance of the contract by the contract billing rates and adding other direct costs as incurred. Revenue from fixed-price contracts is recognized as labor hours are delivered which approximates the straight-line basis of the life of the contract. The Company’sCompany's obligation under these contracts is to provide labor hours to conduct research or to staff facilities with no other deliverables or performance obligations. Anticipated losses on all contracts are recorded in full when identified. Unbilled accounts receivable are stated in the Company’sCompany's consolidated financial statements at their estimated realizable value. Contract costs, including indirect expenses, are subject to audit and adjustment through negotiations between the Company and U.S. Government representatives.
Statement of cash flows
For purposes of reporting cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid investments, purchased with a remaining maturity of three months or less, to be cash equivalents.
Accounts receivable – Allowance for doubtful accounts
Allowances for doubtful accounts are based on estimates of probable losses related to accounts receivable balances. The establishment of allowances requires the use of judgment and assumptions regarding probable losses on receivable balances.
Inventories
The Company’sCompany's inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market, with cost determined using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. The Company uses certain estimates and judgments and considers several factors including product demand, changes in customer requirements and changes in technology to provide for excess and obsolescence reserves to properly value inventory.
Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost and depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which range from three to twenty-five years. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred.
Other assets
Other assets consist of cash surrender value of life insurance related to the Company’sCompany's Deferred Compensation Plan.
Income taxes
The provision for income taxes is based upon pretax earnings with deferred income taxes provided for the temporary differences between the financial reporting basis and the tax basis of the Company’sCompany's assets and liabilities. The Company records a valuation allowance when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to their net realizable amounts. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
Other long-term liabilities
Other long-term liabilities represent amounts owed to certain employees who are participants in the Company’sCompany's Deferred Compensation Plan.
Foreign currency
The assets and liabilities for the Company’sCompany's international operations are translated into U.S. dollars using year-end exchange rates. Income statement items are translated at average exchange rates prevailing during the year. The resulting translation adjustments are recorded as a separate component of shareholders’shareholders' equity under the heading Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss. Exchange gains and losses on intercompany balances of a long-term investment nature are also recorded as a translation adjustment and are included in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss). Foreign currency transaction gains and losses are recorded in other income in the accompanying statements of operations.

Identifiable intangible assets
The Company capitalizes certain costs related to the development of computer software sold by its Hospitality segment. Software development costs incurred prior to establishing technological feasibility are charged to operations and included in research and development costs. Software development costs incurred after establishing feasibility (as defined within ASC 985-20) are capitalized and amortized on a product-by-product basis when the product is available for general release to customers. Annual amortization, charged to cost of sales when the product is available for general release to customers, is computed using the greater of (a) the straight-line method over the remaining estimated economic life of the product, generally three to fiveseven years or (b) the ratio that current gross revenues for a product bear to the total of current and anticipated future gross revenues for that product. Amortization of capitalized software costs amounted to $6.8 million and $465,000, $767,000,in 2012 and $656,0002011, respectively. The increase in 2011, 2010,2012 was primarily the result of accelerated amortization of $5.3 million to reduce the net carrying value of a specific capitalized software asset in conjunction with the Company's strategic initiative to streamline its Hospitality product portfolio. During the fourth quarter of 2012, the Company reviewed its product portfolio and 2009, respectively.
determined it appropriate to cease future development associated with this specific asset.
The Company acquired identifiable intangible assets in connection with its acquisitions in prior years. Amortization of identifiable intangible assets amounted to $455,000 in 2012 and $840,000 in 2011, $939,000 in 2010 and $1,337,000 in 2009.2011.

In conjunction with its quarterly financial close process for the second quarter of 2011, the Company reevaluated its indefinite lived intangibles and determined that two of its trade names within its Hospitality segment should no longer be considered to have indefinite lives. This determination was made after consideration of the Company’s planned use of these trade names in future periods. As such, the Company utilized the royalty method to estimate the fair values of the two specific trade names in question as of June 30, 2011. As a result of this estimate,determination, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $580,000 during the quarter ended June 30, 2011.
In addition, the Company has elected to test for impairment of indefinite lived intangible assets during the fourth quarter of its fiscal year. There was no additional impairment of identifiable intangible assets in 2012 or 2011 other than as noted above, nor was there any impairment identified in fiscal years 2010 or 2009.above.
Stock-based compensation
The Company recognizes all stock-based compensation to employees, including grants of employee stock options and restricted stock awards, in the financial statements as compensation cost over the vesting period using an accelerated expense recognition method, based on their fair value on the date of grant.
Earnings per share
Basic earnings per share are computed based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share reflect the dilutive impact of outstanding stock options and restricted stock awards.
The following is a reconciliation of the weighted average shares outstanding for the basic and diluted earnings per share computations (in thousands, except share and per share data): | | | 2011 | | | 2010 | | | 2009 | | | December 31, | |

At December 31, 2012, there were 5,000 of incremental shares from the assumed exercise of stock options and 31,000 restricted stock awards were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because of the anti-dilutive effect on earnings per share. At December 31, 2011, there were 22,000 of incremental shares from the assumed exercise of stock options and 27,000 restricted stock awards were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because of the anti-dilutive effect on earnings per share. At December 31, 2010, there were 295,000 anti-dilutive stock options outstanding. At December 31, 2009, 245,000 of incremental shares from the assumed exercise of stock options and 26,000 restricted stock awards were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because of the anti-dilutive effect on earnings per share.
Goodwill
The Company tests goodwill for impairment on an annual basis, or more often if events or circumstances indicate there may be impairment. The Company operates in two business segments, Hospitality and Government. Goodwill impairment testing is performed at the sub-segment level (referred to as a reporting unit). The three reporting units utilized by the Company are: Restaurant, Hotel/Resort/Spa, and Government. Goodwill is assigned to reporting units at the date the goodwill is initially recorded. Once goodwill has been assigned to reporting units, it no longer retains its association with a particular acquisition, and all of the activities within a reporting unit, whether acquired or organically grown, are available to support the value of the goodwill. The amount outstanding for goodwill was $6.9 million $27 million and $26.6 million at December 31, 2011, 20102012 and 2009, respectively.2011.
There was no impairment of goodwill in 2012. During the second quarter of 2011, the Company determined that as a result of the decline in the stock price that occurred during the second quarter, a goodwill impairment triggering event had occurred. The fair value of the Company’sCompany's common shares declined from $4.60 per share at April 1, 2011 to $3.83 per share at June 30, 2011, resulting in the Company no longer being able to reconcile the aggregate fair value of its reporting units to its market capitalization after consideration of a reasonable control premium. Although there was no significant adverse change to the long term financial outlook of any of its businesses, the Company concluded that a triggering event had occurred and as a result, performed additional analyses over the valuation of its reporting units in accordance with the relevant accounting rules, recording a non-cash impairment charge of $20.2 million to its goodwill in the second quarter of 2011.
In addition, the Company performs its annual impairment tests of goodwill as of October 1. There was no additional impairment of goodwill in 2011 other than as noted above, nor was there any impairment identified in fiscal years 2010 or 2009.51

Accounting for impairment or disposal of long-lived assets
The Company evaluates the accounting and reporting for the impairment of long-lived assets and for long-lived assets to be disposed. The Company will recognize impairment of long-lived assets or asset groups if the net book value of such assets exceeds the estimated future undiscounted cash flows attributable to such assets. If the carrying value of a long-lived asset or asset group is considered impaired, a loss is recognized based on the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair market value of the long-lived asset or asset group for assets to be held and used, or the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair market value less cost to sell for assets to be sold. No impairment was identified during 2011, 20102012 or 2009.
Reclassifications
Amounts in prior years’years' consolidated financial statements are reclassified whenever necessary to conform to the current year’syear's presentation.
During 2011, the Company changed the presentation of its accounts receivable and related deferred revenue for service contracts billed in advance, where the service period of the contracts did not begin until subsequent to the balance sheet date. At December 31, 2011, the Company presented these amounts on a net basis instead of on a gross basis as the Company believes that net presentation better reflects the fact that the period of performance for the service contracts does not begin until after the balance sheet. The Company also changed the presentation as of December 31, 2010 to provide comparability with 2011. The adjustments as of December 31, 2010 reduced both accounts receivable and deferred revenue by $6.5 million. The Company concluded that the change in presentation was not material to the Company’s 2010 consolidated financial statements as it had no impact to its statements of operations, cash flows, working capital or debt covenant compliance in any of the periods noted within this annual report on Form 10-K.
Use of estimates
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements requires management of the Company to make a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reported amount of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the period. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include the carrying amount of property, plant and equipment, identifiable intangible assets and goodwill, and valuation allowances for receivables, inventories and deferred income tax assets. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

The current economic conditions and the continued volatility in the U.S. and in many other countries where the Company operates could contribute to decreased consumer confidence and continued economic uncertainty which may adversely impact the Company’sCompany's operating performance. Although the Company has seen an improvement in the markets which it serves, the continued volatility in these markets could have an impact on purchases of the Company’sCompany's products, which could result in a reduction of sales, operating income and cash flows. This could have a material adverse effect on the Company’sCompany's business, financial condition and/or results of operations and could have a material adverse impact on the Company’sCompany's significant estimates discussed above, specifically the fair value of the Company’sCompany's reporting units used in support of its annual goodwill impairment test.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
On July 27, 2012, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2012-02, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment ("ASU 2012-02"). ASU 2012-02 is intended to reduce the cost and complexity of the annual indefinite-lived intangible assets impairment testing by providing entities an option to perform a "qualitative" assessment to determine whether further impairment testing is necessary. As such, there is the possibility that quantitative assessments would not need to be performed if it is more likely than not that no impairment exists. The Company is required to adopt the provisions of ASU 2012-02, which is effective for annual and interim impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of ASU 2012-02 is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company's financial position or results of operations.

ASU No. 2011-04 modifies the existing standard to include disclosure of all transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 asset and liability fair value categories. In addition, ASU No. 2011-04 provides guidance on measuring the fair value of financial instruments managed within a portfolio and the application of premiums and discounts on fair value measurements.

In December 2010, FASB issued ASU 2010-28 “Intangibles—Goodwill and Other (Topic 350)” (ASU 2010-28). Topic 350 is amended to clarify the requirement to test for impairment of goodwill. Topic 350 has required that goodwill be tested for impairment if the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value. Under ASU 2010-28, when the carrying amount of a reporting unit is zero or negative, goodwill of that reporting unit shall be tested for impairment on an annual or interim basis if an event occurs or circumstances exist that indicate that it is more likely than not that a goodwill impairment exists. The modifications to ASC Topic 350 resulting from the issuance of ASU 2010-28 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010 and interim periods within those years. The adoption of this standard did not impact the consolidated financial statements.

Entities that sell joint hardware and software products that meet this scope exception will be required to follow the guidance of ASU No. 2009-13. ASU No. 2009-14 is effective prospectively for revenue arrangements entered into or materially modified in fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
In October 2009, the FASB issued ASU No. 2009-13, “Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements.” ASU No. 2009-13 amends guidance included within ASC Topic 605-25 to require an entity to use an estimated selling price when vendor specific objective evidence or acceptable third party evidence does not exist for any products or services included in a multiple element arrangement. The arrangement consideration should be allocated among the products and services based upon their relative selling prices, thus eliminating the use of the residual method of allocation. ASU No. 2009-13 also requires expanded qualitative and quantitative disclosures regarding significant judgments made and changes in applying this guidance. ASU No. 2009-13 is effective prospectively for revenue arrangements entered into or materially modified in fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (Compensation Committee) has discretion to determine the material terms and conditions of option awards under the EIP, provided that (i) the exercise price must be no less than the fair market value of PAR common stock (defined as the closing price) on the date of grant, (ii) the term must be no longer than ten years, and (iii) in no event shall the normal vesting schedule provide for vesting in less than one year. Other terms and conditions of an award of stock options will be determined by the Compensation Committee as set forth in the agreement relating to that award. The Compensation Committee has authority to administer the EIP.

The Company has Federal tax credit carryforwards of $3,900,000$3.7 million that expire in various tax years from 2014 to 2026. The Company has a Federal operating loss carryforward of $12,500,000$21.1 million that expires in various tax years through 2030.2031. Of the operating loss carryforward, $1,500,000$1.5 million will result in a benefit within additional paid in capital when realized. The Company also has state tax credit carryforwards of $200,000$331,000 and state net operating loss carryforwards of $7,300,000$13.0 million which expire in various tax years through 2029.2030. In assessing the ability to realize deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which the temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. As a result of this analysis and based on the current year’syear's taxable loss, management determined that it is more likely than not that the future benefit associated with the foreign tax credit carryforwards and certain state tax credits and loss carryforwards will not be realized. As a result, the Company recorded tax expense associated with an additional deferred tax asset valuation allowance of $44,000 and $655,000 $94,000for 2012 and $1,404,000 for 2011, 2010, and 2009, respectively.
The Company records the benefits relating to uncertain tax positions only when it is more likely than not (likelihood of greater than 50%), based on technical merits, that the position would be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. Tax positions that meet the more likely than not threshold are measured using a probability-weighted approach as the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized upon settlement. At December 31, 2011,2012, the Company’s Company's reserve for uncertain tax positions is not material and the Company believes it has adequately provided for its tax-related liabilities. The Company is no longer subject to United States federal income tax examinations for years before 2008. The provision (benefit) for income taxes differed from the provision computed by applying the Federal statutory rate to income (loss) from continuing operations before taxes due to the following:

Note 12 — Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company’sCompany's financial instruments have been recorded at fair value using available market information and valuation techniques. The fair value hierarchy is based upon three levels of input, which are:
Level 1 − quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (observable)
Level 2 − inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in inactive markets, or other inputs that are observable market data for essentially the full term of the asset or liability (observable)
Level 3 − unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity, but are significant to determining the fair value of the asset or liability (unobservable)
The Company’sCompany's financial instruments consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, trade payables and debt instruments, and an interest rate swap agreement.instruments. For cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables and trade payables, the carrying amounts of these financial instruments as of December 31, 20112012 and 20102011 were considered representative of their fair values. The estimated fair value of the Company’sCompany's long-term debt at December 31, 20112012 and 20102011 was based on variable and fixed interest rates at December 31, 20112012 and 2010,2011, respectively, for new issues with similar remaining maturities and approximates the respective carrying values at December 31, 20112012 and 2010.2011.
The Company’s interest rate swap agreement is valued at the amount the Company would have expected to pay to terminate the agreement. The fair value determination was based upon the present value of expected future cash flows using the LIBOR rate, plus an applicable interest rate spread, a technique classified within Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy described above. At December 31, 2011 and 2010, the fair market value of the Company’s interest rate swap included a cumulative unrealized loss of $26,000 and $127,000, respectively, which is recorded as a component of interest expense within the consolidated statements of operations and as a component of accrued expenses within the consolidated balance sheets.
The deferred compensation assets and liabilities primarily relate to the Company’sCompany's Deferred Compensation Plan, , which allows for pre-tax salary deferrals for certain key employees (see note 9). Changes in the fair value of the deferred compensation liabilities are derived using quoted prices in active markets of the asset selections made by the participants. The deferred compensation liabilities are classified within Level 2, as defined under U.S. GAAP, because their inputs are derived principally from observable market data by correlation to the hypothetical investments. The Company holds insurance investments to partially offset the Company’sCompany's liabilities under the Deferred Compensation Plan, which are recorded at fair value each period using the cash surrender value of the insurance investments.
Note 13 — Related Party Transactions
The Company leases its corporate wellness facility to related parties at a current rate of $9,775 per month. The Company receives a complimentary membership to this facility which is provided to all employees. During 2011, 2010,2012 and 20092011 the Company received rental income amounting to $117,300 for the lease of the facility in each year.
