NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
(1) Basis of Presentation
The consolidated balance sheets and related consolidated statements of operations and cash flows contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, which are unaudited, include the accounts of Mad Catz Interactive, Inc. (the “Company”) and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. In the opinion of management, all entries necessary for a fair presentation of such condensed consolidated financial statements have been included. These entries consisted only of normal recurring items. The results of operations for the interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any other interim period or for the entire fiscal year.
The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all information and notes necessary for a complete presentation of financial position, results or operations and cash flows in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles. Please refer to the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and related notes for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2007 contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results may differ from those estimates.
Certain amounts in the consolidated financial statements for the three months ended September 30, 2006 have been reclassified to conform to the three months ended September 30, 2007 presentation.
(2) Stock-Based Compensation
On April 1, 2006, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123R,Share-Based Payment(“SFAS No. 123R”) and began recording compensation expense associated with share-based awards made to employees and directors based upon their grant date fair value. The Company recognizes these compensation costs on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the award, which ranges from zero to four years.
The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option valuation model. The expected life of the options is based on a number of factors, including historical exercise experience, the vesting term of the award, the expected volatility of the Company’s stock and an employee’s average length of service. The expected volatility is estimated based on the historical volatility (using daily pricing) of the Company’s stock. The risk-free interest rate is determined on observed interest rates appropriate for the expected term of the stock options. In accordance with SFAS No. 123R, the Company reduces the calculated Black-Scholes value by applying a forfeiture rate, based upon historical pre-vesting option cancellations. Estimated forfeitures will be reassessed at each balance sheet date and may change based on new facts and circumstances.
The following table shows the total stock-based compensation expense, related to all of the Company’s stock options, recognized for the six month period ended September 30, 2007 in accordance with SFAS No. 123R (in thousands):

During the six months ended September 30, 2007, the Company granted 1,150,000 stock options (131,000 of which were cancelled due to termination) under the Mad Catz Interactive, Inc. Stock Option Plan — 2007 (the “2007 Plan”). The Company’s Board of Directors has adopted the plan, and the shareholders approved the plan on October 2, 2007. Therefore, these options did not qualify as grants during the six months ended September 30, 2007 for accounting purposes. The compensation expense for the fair value of these option awards totaling $773,248 will be recorded over the options vesting period, which commences on October 2, 2007. The Company granted 1,497,500 stock options during the six months ended September 30, 2006.
As of September 30, 2007, there was $295,000 of total unrecognized compensation costs, net of estimated forfeitures, related to non-vested stock options, excluding the 1,150,000 options granted during the six months ended September 30, 2007, which were not approved by the shareholders until October 2, 2007. The Company expects to recognize such costs over a weighted average period of 3.08 years. The total intrinsic value of stock options exercised during the six months ended September 30, 2007 was $681,000. There were no stock options exercised during the six months ended September 30, 2006.
The Company’s options granted in fiscal year 2008 are denominated in U.S. dollars. Prior year options granted were denominated in Canadian dollars. For convenience, per share amounts stated below from prior periods have been translated to U.S. dollars at the rate of exchange in effect at the balance sheet date.

(5) Bank Loan
The Company has a Credit Facility with Wachovia Capital Finance Corporation (Central) (“Wachovia”) to borrow up to $35 million under a revolving line of credit subject to the availability of eligible collateral (accounts receivable and inventories), which changes throughout the year. The term of the Credit Facility will expire on October 30, 2009. The line of credit accrues interest on the daily outstanding balance at the U.S. prime rate plus 0.25% per annum. At September 30, 2007 the interest rate was 8.50%. The Company is also required to pay a monthly service fee of $1,000 and an unused line fee equal to 0.25% of the unused portion of the loan. Borrowings under the Credit Facility are secured by a first priority interest in the inventories, equipment, accounts receivable and investment properties of Mad Catz, Inc. (“MCI”) and by a pledge of all of the capital stock of the Company’s subsidiaries and is guaranteed by the Company. The Company is required to meet a quarterly covenant based on the Company’s net income before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA). The Company was in compliance with this covenant as of September 30, 2007.

(6) Legal Proceedings
On or about May 2, 2005, Mad Catz, Inc. (“MCI”) was served with a lawsuit filed by Freedom Wave LLC in the United States District Court for the Central District of California entitled,Freedom Wave LLC. v. Mad Catz, Inc. et al.,Case No CV5 2954NM (PLAx). The complaint alleged that certain MCI products infringe U.S. patent numbers 6,878,066 and 6,280,327 (“ ‘327 Patent”). MCI answered, denying the allegation in the complaint. The ‘327 patent was under reexamination by the patent and trademark office, and the parties agreed that until the reexamination was complete, the case should be dismissed, without prejudice to Freedom Wave refiling its claims at a later date. The reexamination has been completed and on November 14, 2006 Freedom Wave LLC refiled the lawsuit against the Company. On August 2, 2007, the Company and Freedom Wave executed a Settlement and Intellectual Property License Agreement under which the parties agreed that the lawsuit would be dismissed. The Company’s obligations under this agreement are (i) to pay a one-time licensing fee/royalty of $102,500 for certain products sold prior to the effective date of the agreement, and (ii) to pay an ongoing royalty of $0.40 per net unit sold during the term of the agreement. The one-time licensing fee/royalty of $102,500 was paid on August 9, 2007. The Company’s obligations under the agreement will continue until the date on which the last of the licensed patents expires, March 15, 2024, unless otherwise terminated under the provisions of the agreement.
(7) Comprehensive Income (Loss)
SFAS No. 130,Reporting Comprehensive Income,requires classification of other comprehensive income in a financial statement and display of other comprehensive income separately from retained earnings and additional paid-in capital. Other comprehensive income includes primarily foreign currency translation adjustments and unrealized gains (losses) on investments.
Comprehensive income (loss) for the three and six months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006 consists of the following components (in thousands):
Three Months Ended | Six Months Ended | |||||||||||||||
September 30, | September 30, | |||||||||||||||
2007 | 2006 | 2007 | 2006 | |||||||||||||
Net income (loss) | $ | 872 | $ | 196 | $ | 690 | $ | (680 | ) | |||||||
Foreign currency translation adjustment | 397 | 174 | 367 | 1,396 | ||||||||||||
Comprehensive income | $ | 1,269 | $ | 370 | $ | 1,057 | $ | 716 | ||||||||
The foreign currency translation adjustments are not adjusted for income taxes as they relate to indefinite investments in non-U.S. subsidiaries.
(8) Basic and Diluted Net Income (Loss) per Share
Basic earnings per share exclude any dilutive effects of stock options. Diluted earnings per share include the impact of dilutive stock options. Common stock-based equity instruments equivalent to 873,334 and 550,055 shares for the three and six month periods ended September 30, 2007, respectively, were not included in the calculations of diluted net income per common share because the effect of these instruments was anti-dilutive. During the three and six months ended September 30, 2007, there were dilutive securities of 906,790 and 866,699, respectively. During the three and six months ended September 30, 2006 there were no dilutive securities, due to the exercise price of the options being greater than the average market price of the Company’s common stock during both periods.

(9) Income Taxes
In July 2006, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 48 (“FIN 48”)Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes—An Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109.FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an entity’s financial statements in accordance with FASB Statement No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes” and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attributes for financial statement disclosure of tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. Under FIN 48, the impact of an uncertain income tax position on the income tax return must be recognized at the largest amount that is more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon audit by the relevant taxing authority. An uncertain income tax position will not be recognized if it has less than a 50% likelihood of being sustained. Additionally, FIN 48 provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition.
Effective April 1, 2007, the Company adopted the provisions of FIN 48. The adoption did not have a material impact to the Company and there was no cumulative effect related to the adoption of FIN 48. The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense.
The Company is subject to taxation in the U.S. and various states and foreign jurisdictions. The U.S Federal Income Tax Return of the Company’s U.S. subsidiary, Mad Catz, Inc., for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2005, has been selected for audit by the Internal Revenue Service. The Company has no years under examination by any other state or foreign jurisdiction.
The Company’s historical tax years are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service and various state jurisdictions for fiscal years ended March 31, 2004 to present. With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to foreign examinations by tax authorities for fiscal years ended before March 31, 2004.
The Company does not foresee any material changes to unrecognized tax benefits within the next twelve months.

(12) Subsequent Events
On November 13, 2007, the Company signed a definitive agreement to purchase Saitek , a provider of PC games peripherals, for $30 million. Under the terms of the agreement, the $30 million purchase consideration is subject to working capital adjustment and is comprised of $15.5 million in cash from Mad Catz’ cash on hand and borrowings under the Company’s existing credit facility, as well as the issuance to the seller by Mad Catz of $14.5 million of convertible notes. The notes bear interest at a rate of 7.5% payable at maturity and are convertible at the seller’s option into common shares of Mad Catz Interactive, Inc. at $1.42 per share. The conversion price represents a 15% premium to the average closing share price of MCZ shares over the last 15 trading days. $4.5 million of the notes mature in two years and $10 million of the notes mature in three years.
The strategic combination will broaden the product lines the Company offers, expand the Company’s geographic presence and will allow the Company to provide a more comprehensive product suite to its customers.

Overview
Our Business
We are a leading provider of video game accessories and software primarily marketed under the Mad Catz, GameShark and Joytech brands; we also produce a limited range of products which are marketed on a “private label” basis for selected customers. We design, manufacture (primarily through third parties in Asia), market and distribute accessories for all major video game platforms, including the Microsoft Xbox 360 and Xbox; Nintendo Wii, GameCube, DS Lite, DS, Game Boy Advance SP, Game Boy Advance, and Micro; and Sony PlayStation 3, PlayStation 2 and PSP. Our products include video game accessories, such as control pads, steering wheels, joysticks, memory cards, video cables, light guns, dance pads, microphones, car adapters and carry cases. We also market video game enhancement software and publish video games.
In September 2007, the Company acquired certain assets of Joytech from Take-Two Interactive Software, Inc. (NASDAQ: TTWO) for approximately $3 million. The assets acquired include inventories, property and equipment and intangible assets such as trademarks, customer relationships and product lines. The Company expects to finalize the purchase price allocation of the fair value of the assets acquired in the third quarter of fiscal year 2008.
Seasonality
We generate a substantial percentage of our net sales in the last three months of every calendar year, our fiscal third quarter. Our quarterly results of operations can be expected to fluctuate significantly in the future, as a result of many factors, including: seasonal influences on our sales; unpredictable consumer preferences and spending trends; the introduction of new video game platforms; the need to increase inventories in advance of our primary selling season; and timing of introductions of new products. See further discussion and sales by quarter under “Results of Operations—Net Sales” below.
Transition to Next-Generation Consoles
Our industry is cyclical and we believe it is still transitioning into the next cycle, which began with the release of Microsoft’s Xbox 360 in November 2005 and continued with the North American releases of Sony’s PlayStation 3 and Nintendo’s Wii at the end of 2006. In fiscal 2007, we launched a range of accessories compatible with the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and Wii video game consoles as well as continued to provide accessories to the significant installed base of current consoles in the marketplace. To date, our ability to release certain products on the new video game consoles has been restricted by technological requirements.
Potential Fluctuations in Foreign Currency
During the first six months of fiscal 2008, approximately 34% of total net sales were transacted outside of the United States compared to 29% in the first six months of fiscal 2007. The majority of our international business is presently conducted in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. As such we are exposed to translation adjustments when converting under the current rate method our foreign subsidiaries functional currency financial statements to U.S. dollar, which is our reporting currency. Translation adjustments are reported as accumulated other comprehensive income in the shareholders’ equity section of the balance sheet; whereas, foreign currency transaction gains and losses, arising from normal business operations are credited to or charged against earnings in the period incurred. As a result, fluctuations in the value of the currencies in which business is conducted relative to the U.S. dollar or the subsidiaries respective functional currencies will cause currency transaction gains and losses, which we have experienced in the past and continue to experience. Due to the substantial volatility of currency exchange rates, among other factors, we cannot predict the effect of exchange rate fluctuations upon future operating results. There can be no assurances that we will not experience currency losses in the future. We do not hedge against foreign currency exposure and we cannot predict the effect foreign currency fluctuations will have on us in the future.
Critical Accounting Policies
Our consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, contingent assets and liabilities, and revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. The policies discussed below are considered by management to be critical because they are not only important to the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations but also because application and interpretation of these policies requires both judgment and estimates of matters that are inherently uncertain and unknown. As a result, actual results may differ materially from our estimates.

Revenue Recognition
The Company evaluates the recognition of revenue based on the applicable provisions of Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104,Revenue Recognitionand on the criteria set forth in Statement of Position 97-2,Software Revenue Recognition.Accordingly, the Company recognizes revenue when (1) there is persuasive evidence that an arrangement with the customer exists, which is generally a customer purchase order, (2) the products are delivered, which occurs when the products are shipped and risk of loss has been transferred to the customer, (3) the selling price is fixed or determinable and (4) collection of the customer receivable is deemed probable. Our payment arrangements with customers typically provide net 30 and 60-day terms.
Revenue from sales to authorized resellers are subject to terms allowing price protection, certain rights of return and allowances for volume rebates and cooperative advertising. Allowances for price protection are recorded when the price protection program is offered. Allowances for estimated future returns and cooperative advertising are provided for upon recognition of revenue. Such amounts are estimated and periodically adjusted based on historical and anticipated rates of returns, inventory levels and other factors and are recorded as either operating expenses or as a reduction of sales in accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force 01-9,Accounting for Consideration Given by a Vendor to a Customer (Including a Reseller of the Vendor’s Products).
Customer Marketing Programs
We record allowances for customer marketing programs, including certain rights of return, price protection, volume-based cash incentives and cooperative advertising. The estimated cost of these programs is accrued as a reduction to revenue or as an operating expense in the period we sell the product or commit to the program. Significant management judgments and estimates must be used to determine the cost of these programs in any accounting period.
We grant limited rights of return for certain products. Estimates of expected future product returns are based on analyses of historical returns and information regarding inventory levels and the demand and acceptance of our products by the end consumer.
Consistent with industry standards and practices, on a product-by-product basis by customer, we allow price protection credits to be issued to retailers in the event of a subsequent price reduction. In general, price protection refers to the circumstances when we elect to decrease the price of a product as a result of reduction in competitive prices and issue credits to our customers to protect the customers from lower profit margins on their then current inventory of the product. The decision to effect price reductions is influenced by retailer inventory levels, product lifecycle stage, market acceptance, competitive environment and new product introductions. Credits are issued based upon the number of units that customers have on hand at the date of the price reduction. Upon approval of a price protection program, reserves for the estimated amounts to be reimbursed to qualifying customers are established. Reserves are estimated based on analyses of qualified inventories on hand with retailers and distributors.
We enter into cooperative advertising arrangements with many of our customers allowing customers to receive a credit for various advertising programs. The amounts of the credits are based on specific dollar-value programs or a percentage of sales, depending on the terms of the program negotiated with the individual customer. The objective of these programs is to encourage advertising and promotional events to increase sales of our products. Accruals for the estimated costs of these advertising programs are recorded based on the specific negotiations with individual customers in the period in which the revenue is recognized. We regularly evaluate the adequacy of these cooperative advertising program accruals.
We also offer volume rebates to several of our customers and record reserves for such rebates as a reduction of revenue at the time revenue is recognized. Estimates of required reserves are determined based on programs negotiated with the specific customers.
Future market conditions and product transitions may require us to take action to increase customer programs and incentive offerings that could result in incremental reductions to revenue or increased operating expenses at the time the incentive is offered.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
We sell our products in the United States and internationally primarily through retailers. We generally do not require any collateral from our customers. However, we seek to control our credit risk through ongoing credit evaluations of our customers’ financial condition and by purchasing credit insurance on European accounts receivable balances.
We regularly evaluate the collectibility of our accounts receivable and we maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts which we believe is adequate. The allowance is based on management’s assessment of the collectibility of specific customer

Table of Contents
accounts, including their credit worthiness and financial condition, as well as historical experience with bad debts, receivables aging and current economic trends.
Our customer base is highly concentrated and a deterioration of a significant customer’s financial condition, or a decline in general economic conditions could cause actual write-offs to be materially different from the estimated allowance. As of September 30, 2007, one customer represented 46% of total accounts receivable. The customers comprising the ten highest outstanding trade receivable balances accounted for approximately 85% to total accounts receivable at September 30, 2007. If any of these customer’s receivable balances should be deemed uncollectible, we would have to make adjustments to our allowance for doubtful accounts, which could have an adverse affect on our financial condition and results of operations in the period the adjustments are made.
Inventory Valuation
We value inventories at the lower of cost or market value. If the estimated market value is determined to be less than the recorded cost of the inventory, a provision is made to reduce the carrying amount of the inventory item. Determination of the market value may be complex, and therefore, requires management to make assumptions and to apply a high degree of judgment. In order for management to make the appropriate determination of market value, the following items are commonly considered: inventory turnover statistics, inventory quantities on hand in our facilities and customer inventories, unfilled customer order quantities, forecasted customer demand, current retail prices, competitive pricing, seasonality factors, consumer trends, and performance of similar products or accessories. Subsequent changes in facts or circumstances do not result in the reversal of previously recorded reserves.
We have not made any significant changes in the methodology or assumptions used to establish our inventory write-downs as reported during the past three fiscal years. We do not believe there is a reasonable likelihood that there will be a significant change in the future methodology or assumptions we use to calculate our inventory write-downs. However, if our estimates regarding market value are inaccurate, or changes in consumer demand affect specific products in an unforeseen manner, we may be exposed to additional increases in our inventory write-downs that could be material.
Royalties and Intellectual Property Licenses
Royalty and license expenses consist of royalties and license fees paid to intellectual property rights holders for use of their trademarks, copyrights, software, technology or other intellectual property or proprietary rights in the development or sale of our products. Royalty-based payments that are paid in advance are generally capitalized and expensed to cost of sales at the greater of the contractual or effective royalty rate based on net product sales.
Royalty payments to independent software developers and co-publishing affiliates are payments for the development of intellectual property related to the Company’s video game titles. Payments made prior to the establishment of technological feasibility are expensed as research and development. Once technological feasibility has been established, payments made are capitalized and amortized upon release of the product. Additional royalty payments due after the general release of the product are typically expensed as cost of sales at the higher of the contractual or effective royalty rate based on net product sales.
Valuation of Goodwill
In accordance with SFAS No. 142,Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets(“SFAS No. 142”) we perform an annual impairment review at the reporting unit level during the fourth quarter of each fiscal year or more frequently if we believe indicators of impairment are present. SFAS No. 142 requires that goodwill and certain intangible assets be assessed for impairment using fair value measurement techniques. Specifically, goodwill impairment is determined using a two-step process. The first step of the goodwill impairment test is used to identify potential impairment by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carry amount, including goodwill. If the fair value of a reporting unit exceeds its carry amount, goodwill of the reporting unit is considered not impaired and the second step of the impairment test is unnecessary. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, the second step of the goodwill impairment test is performed to measure the amount of impairment loss, if any. The second step of the goodwill impairment test compares the implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill with the carrying amount of that goodwill. If the carrying amount of the reporting unit’s goodwill exceeds the implied fair value of that goodwill, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to that excess. We performed the most recent annual goodwill impairment test in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2007 and determined that there was no impairment.

Share-Based Payments
Effective April 1, 2006, we adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 123R,Share-Based Payment, which established accounting for share-based awards exchanged for employee services and requires companies to expense the estimated fair value of these awards over the requisite employee service period. Accordingly, stock-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date, based on the fair value of the award, and is recognized as expense over the employee’s requisite service period.
The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option valuation model. The expected life of the options is based on a number of factors, including historical exercise experience, the vesting term of the award, the expected volatility of the Company’s stock and an employee’s average length of service. The expected volatility is estimated based on the historical volatility (using daily pricing) of the Company’s stock. The risk-free interest rate is determined on a constant U.S. Treasury security rate with a contractual life that approximates the expected term of the stock options. In accordance with SFAS No. 123R, the Company reduces the calculated Black-Scholes value by applying a forfeiture rate, based upon historical pre-vesting option cancellations. Estimated forfeitures will be reassessed at each balance sheet date and may change based on new facts and circumstances.

For the three months ended September 30, 2007, consolidated net sales decreased 34.6% as compared to the three month period ended September 30, 2006. Net sales decreased in the U.S., Europe and Canada due primarily to a continuing transition in the adoption cycle for the next generation platforms (XBox 360, Playstation 3 and Nintendo Wii) and our strategic change in focus to selling higher quality, higher margin product lines. In addition, sales of our Real World Golf software product which was launched last year have declined.
For the six months ended September 30, 2007, consolidated net sales decreased 28.5% as compared to the six months ended September 30, 2006. The decrease in net sales is primarily due to the factors discussed above.

Gross profit for the three months ended September 30, 2007 decreased 11.0%, while gross profit as a percentage of net sales, or gross profit margin, increased from 21.6% to 29.4%. The increase in gross profit margin was primarily due to a reduction in sales of low margin and unprofitable products and an increase in sales of higher margin products, which increased profit margin by approximately 14 percentage points. A reduction in freight expense due to a higher mix of direct imports to customers increased profit margin by approximately 1 percentage point. These increases in profit margin were offset by an increase in inventory write-downs which decreased profit margin by approximately 3 percentage points, an increase in distribution and handling costs which decreased profit margin by 2 percentage points, and an increase in royalty and license expenses, which decreased profit margin by approximately 1 percentage point.
Gross profit for the six months ended September 30, 2007 increased 5.7%, while gross profit as a percentage of net sales, or gross profit margin, increased from 20.8% to 30.6%. The increase in gross profit margin was primarily due to a reduction in sales of low margin and unprofitable products and an increase in sales of higher margin products, which increased profit margin by approximately 12 percentage points. A reduction in freight expense due to a higher mix of direct imports to customers increased profit margin by approximately 1 percentage point. A decrease in sales discounts and allowances also increased profit margin by approximately 1 percentage point, while a reduction in royalty and license expenses increased profit margin by approximately 1 percentage point. These increases in profit margin were offset by an increase in inventory reserves which decreased profit margin by approximately 2 percentage points, and a decrease in distribution and handling costs which decreased profit margin by 2 percentage points.

Sales and Marketing Expenses.Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of payroll, commissions, participation at trade shows and travel costs for our worldwide sales and marketing staff, advertising expense and costs of operating our GameShark.com website. The decrease in sales and marketing expense of 0.5% for the three months ended September 30, 2007 is primarily due to decreased cooperative advertising expenses related to the decrease in total sales. The decrease in sales and marketing expense of 19.9% for the six months ended September 30, 2007 is due primarily to a decrease in advertising expenses related to our software product which was launched in the first quarter of fiscal 2007.
General and Administrative.General and administrative expenses include salaries and benefits for our executive and administrative personnel, facilities costs and professional services, such as legal and accounting. The decrease in general and administrative expense of 38.4% for the three months ended September 30, 2007 is primarily due to decreased legal expenses and decreased stock based compensation expense. In the quarter ended September 30, 2006, we had ongoing litigation and a one time charge to stock based compensation for options granted with immediate vesting. The decrease in general and administrative expense of 1.4% for the six months ended September 30, 2007 is due to decreased legal fees and stock based compensation expenses discussed above partially offset by increased bonus expenses which were expensed in the quarter ended June 30, 2007.

Research and Development.Research and development expenses include the costs of developing and enhancing new and existing products in addition to the costs of developing software products. The decrease in research and development expenses of 38.4% for the three months ended September 30, 2007 is due to a decrease in software development costs as we are currently not developing game titles, this decrease was partially offset by an increase in development cost of our new audio products. For the six months ended September 30, 2007, research and development expenses decreased 12.9% due primarily to decreased software development as discussed above.

The decrease in interest expense during the three and six months ended September 30, 2007 is attributable to lower average bank loan balances and a decline in the interest rate during the period. The foreign exchange gains in the three and six months ended September 30, 2007 results from the change of the U.S. dollar and relate to the revaluation of intercompany payables arising from product purchases at the Company’s foreign subsidiaries.
Other income primarily consists of advertising income from our GameShark.com website and royalties paid by an unrelated third party to distribute our products in Australia. For the three and six months ended September 30, 2007 the increase in other income is primarily due to increased purchases from the unrelated third party distributor in Australia.

Income tax expense increased due to the pre-tax income earned for the quarter ended September 30, 2007 which was $1.7 million as compared to $421,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2006. For the six months ended September 30, 2007 the pre-tax income was $1.5 million as compared to a loss of $788,000 for the six months ended September 30, 2006. The effective tax rate is a blended rate for different jurisdictions in which the Company operates. Our effective tax rate fluctuates depending on the composition of our taxable income between the various jurisdictions in which we do business, including our Canadian subsidiary for which we provide a full valuation allowance against their losses.

At September 30, 2007, available cash was approximately $3.0 million compared to cash of approximately $2.4 million at March 31, 2007 and $1.6 million at September 30, 2006. Our primary sources of liquidity include a revolving line of credit (as discussed below under Cash Flows from Financing Activities) and cash on hand at the beginning of the year.
Cash Flows from Operating Activities
Our cash flows from operating activities have typically included the collection of customer receivables generated by the sale of our products, offset by payments to vendors for materials and manufacture of our products. For the six months ended September 30, 2007, cash used in operating activities was $2.1 million compared to cash used of $6.1 million for the six months ended September 30, 2006. Cash was primarily used for the payment of accounts payable, offset by smaller inventory purchases resulting in a reduction in inventories.
Cash Flows from Investing Activities
Cash used in investing activities was $3.5 million during the six months ended September 30, 2007 and $0.2 million during the six months ended September 30, 2006. Investing activities consist of capital expenditures to support our operations. The $3.3 million increase of net cash used in investing activities was primarily due to our Joytech asset acquisition.
Cash Flows from Financing Activities
Cash provided by financing activities during the six months ended September 30, 2007 was primarily the result of borrowings under our line of credit. The Company drew down approximately $3.0 million for the Joytech asset acquisition. For the six months ended September 30, 2007, cash provided by financing activities was $6.0 million compared to cash provided of $6.2 million in the six months ended September 30, 2006. We are focused on effectively managing our overall liquidity position by continuously monitoring expenses and managing our accounts receivable collection efforts.
We maintain a Credit Facility (the “Credit Facility”) with Wachovia Capital Finance Corporation (Central) (“Wachovia”), formerly Congress Financial Corporation (Central), which allows us to borrow up to $35 million under a revolving line of credit, subject to the availability of eligible collateral (accounts receivable and inventories), which changes throughout the year. On October 30, 2006, the Company and Wachovia entered into a Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement that extended the term until October 30, 2009. The line of credit accrues interest on the daily outstanding balance at the U.S. prime rate plus 0.25% per annum, and must be repaid in United States dollars. In addition, the Company is required to pay a monthly service fee of $1,000 as of October 30, 2006 ($2,000 prior to the renewal on October 30, 2006) and an unused line fee equal to 0.25%. The Credit Facility is secured by a first priority security interest in the inventories, equipment, accounts receivable and investment properties of Mad Catz, Inc., our primary operating subsidiary (“MCI”), and a pledge in favor of Wachovia of all of the shares of capital stock of our subsidiaries. The Credit Facility is guaranteed by the Company and requires us to adhere to specified financial operating guidelines. See Note 5 to the consolidated financial statements included in Item 1. Financial Statements, elsewhere in this Form 10-Q.

We believe that our available cash balances, anticipated cash flows from operations and available line of credit will be sufficient to satisfy our operating needs for at least the next twelve months. However, we operate in a rapidly evolving and often unpredictable business environment that may change the timing or amount of expected future cash receipts and expenditures. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that we may not be required to raise additional funds through the sale of equity or debt securities or from additional credit facilities. Additional capital, if needed, may not be available on satisfactory terms, if at all. Furthermore, additional debt financing may contain more restrictive covenants than our existing debt.

As of September 30, 2007 and March 31, 2007, we did not have any relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial parties, such as entities often referred to as structured finance or special purpose entities, which would have been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements or other contractually narrow or limited purposes. As such, we are not exposed to any financing, liquidity, market, or credit risk that could arise if we had engaged in such relationships.
EBITDA
EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, represents net income before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. EBITDA is not intended to represent cash flows for the period, nor is it being presented as an alternative to operating income or net income as an indicator of operating performance and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. As defined, EBITDA is not necessarily comparable to other similarly titled captions of other companies due to potential inconsistencies in the method of calculation. We believe, however, that in addition to the performance measures found in our financial statements, EBITDA is a useful financial performance measurement for assessing our Company’s operating performance. Our management uses EBITDA as a measurement of operating performance in comparing our performance on a consistent basis over prior periods, as it removes from operating results the impact of our capital structure, including the interest expense resulting from our outstanding debt, and our asset base, including depreciation and amortization of our capital and intangible assets.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued SFAS No. 157,Fair Value Measurements(“SFAS No. 157”), which provides a single definition of fair value, a framework for measuring fair value, and expanded disclosures concerning fair value. Previously, different definitions of fair value were contained in various accounting pronouncements creating inconsistencies in measurement and disclosures. SFAS No. 157 applies under those previously issued pronouncements that prescribe fair value as the relevant measure of value, except SFAS No. 123R and related interpretations and pronouncements that require or permit measurement similar to fair value but are not intended to measure fair value. This pronouncement is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company does not expect the adoption of SFAS No. 157 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Table of Contents
In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159,The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities — Including an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 115(“SFAS No. 159”). This standard permits an entity to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. Most of the provisions in SFAS No. 159 are elective; however, the amendment to SFAS No. 115,Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities, applies to all entities with available-for-sale and trading securities. The fair value option established by SFAS No. 159 permits all entities to choose to measure eligible items at fair value at specified election dates. A business entity will report unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value of the option has been elected in earnings (or another performance indicator if the business entity does not report earnings) at each subsequent reporting date. The fair value option: (a) may be applied instrument by instrument, with a few exceptions, such as investments otherwise accounted for by the equity method; (b) is irrevocable (unless a new election date occurs); and (c) is applied only to entire instruments and not to portions of instruments. SFAS No. 159 is effective as of the beginning of an entity’s first fiscal year that begins after November 15, 2007. The Company does not expect the adoption of SFAS No. 159 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
Forward-Looking Statements
Certain statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are not historical fact and constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. These forward-looking statements may address, among other things, our strategy for growth, business development, market and competitive position, financial results, expected revenue, expense levels in the future and the sufficiency of our existing assets to fund future operations and capital spending needs. These statements relate to our expectations, hopes, beliefs, anticipations, commitments, intentions and strategies regarding the future, and may be identified by the use of words or phrases such as “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “should,” “plan,” “estimate,” and “potential,” among others.
Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of performance and are subject to important factors and events that could cause our actual business, prospects and results of operations to differ materially from the historical information contained in this Form 10-Q, and from those that may be expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. Readers are cautioned that actual results could differ materially from the anticipated results or other expectations expressed in these forward-looking statements for the reasons detailed in Part I — Item 1A. — Risk Factors of our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, and in Part II Other Information — Item 1A. Risk Factors of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The fact that some risk factors may be the same or similar to our past reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission means only that the risks are present in multiple periods. We believe that many of the risks listed here and detailed in our other SEC filings are part of doing business in the industry in which we operate, and will likely be present in all periods reported. The fact that certain risks are endemic to the industry does not lessen their significance. The forward-looking statements contained in this report are made as of the date of this report and we assume no obligation to update them or to update the reasons why actual results could differ from those projected in such forward-looking statements. Among others, risks and uncertainties that may affect our business, financial condition, performance, development and results of operations include:
• | Our dependence upon a few large customers, and their continued viability and financial stability, and a few core products to generate a significant portion of our revenues, | ||
• | Our need to constantly change our product mix by introducing new products in response to changing competitive and market conditions, and our need to obtain sufficient retail shelf space at our retailers to display and market our products, | ||
• | Risks associated with the introduction of new video game consoles, including technological compatibility of our products and obsolescence of our older products, | ||
• | Our dependence upon third parties to manufacture, ship and sell our products, | ||
• | Our dependence upon third parties to develop new and enhanced video game consoles and software that promote demand for our products and the commercial acceptance of the new consoles and software, | ||
• | The seasonality of our business, with the bulk of our sales coming in our fiscal third quarter, | ||
• | Regulatory requirements of new laws related to environmental practices in connection with developing, manufacturing and distributing electronics products, | ||
• | Potential political events, particularly in China, that may negatively affect economic conditions generally and our ability to obtain sufficient quantities of our products in a timely and efficient manner, | ||
• | Product liability claims, product defects, recalls and other manufacturing activity risks, | ||
• | Risks related to our pricing, product return, promotion and production practices, | ||
• | Risks related to acquisitions and related integration of acquired businesses. |

• | Our ability to negotiate and comply with licensing arrangements with first party manufacturers and other parties that are necessary to manufacture our products, | ||
• | Provisions in some of our supply agreements that could require us to make substantial minimum annual purchases, | ||
• | The impact on our sales of disruptions of shipping and product delivery operations worldwide, | ||
• | Costs associated with defending our intellectual property rights and with defending assertions by other parties that we infringe their intellectual property rights, | ||
• | Risks associated with our international operations, | ||
• | The fact that accounts receivable represent a large portion of our assets and are owed by a few large customers, | ||
• | Our dependence upon the availability of capital under our credit facility to finance our operations, | ||
• | Potential inability to sustain or manage growth, including the failure to continue to develop new products and markets, | ||
• | Our reliance on the use of information technology, | ||
• | Our need to attract, train and retain skilled personnel to manage our business, develop new products and market our products to retailers, | ||

• | Fluctuations in the value of foreign currencies against the U.S. dollar. |
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Market Risk
Market risk is the potential loss arising from changes in market rates and market prices. Our market risk exposure results primarily from fluctuations in foreign exchange rates and interest rates. Our views on market risk are not necessarily indicative of actual results that may occur and do not represent the maximum possible gains and losses that may occur, since actual gains and losses will differ from those estimated, based upon actual fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates and the timing of transactions.
Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk.
A majority of our international business is presently conducted in currencies other than the U.S. dollar and may be exposed to financial market risk resulting from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, particularly the CNY, the Pound Sterling, the Euro and the Canadian dollar. Foreign currency transaction gains and losses arising from normal business operations are credited to or charged against earnings in the period incurred. As a result, fluctuations in the value of the currencies in which we conduct our business relative to the U.S. dollar will cause currency transaction gains and losses, which we have experienced in the past and continue to experience. Due to the substantial volatility of currency exchange rates, among other factors, we cannot predict the effect of exchange rate fluctuations upon future operating results. There can be no assurances that we will not experience currency losses in the future. We do not hedge against foreign currency exposure and we cannot predict the effect foreign currency fluctuations will have on us in the future. We estimate that an immediate 10% adverse change in foreign exchange rates would decrease our reported net income by approximately $1.2 million for the six months ended September 30, 2007.
Interest Rate Risk.
We are exposed to interest rate risk on borrowings under our Credit Facility. Funds advanced to us pursuant to the Credit Facility bear interest at the U.S. prime rate plus 0.25%. We do not hedge our exposures to interest rate risk. We estimate that an increase of 100 basis points in the interest rate under our Credit Facility would not materially impact reported net income for the six months ended September 30, 2007.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls
22
Table of Contents
and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As required by Securities and Exchange Commission Rules 13a-15(a) and 13a-15(e), we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer (who is also the Chief Accounting Officer), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on the foregoing, our Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.
Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting
There has been no change in our internal controls over financial reporting during the period covered by this quarterly report that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect our internal controls over financial reporting.
PART II — OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
Discussion of legal matters is incorporated by reference from Part I, Item 1, Note 6, “Legal Proceedings” of this document, and should be considered an integral part of Part II, Item 1, “Legal Proceedings.”
Item 1A. Risk Factors
Except as set forth below, there have been no material changes to the risk factors as previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2007.
The benefits we anticipate from acquiring the assets of the Joytech business may not be realized in the manner anticipated.
We acquired certain assets of the Joytech from Take-Two Interactive Software, Inc., with the expectation that the acquisition will resut in various benefits including, among other things, enhanced revenue and profits, greater market presence and development, particularly in Europe, and enhancements to our product portfolio and customer base. We may not realize these benefits, as rapidly as, or to the extent, anticipated by our management. Operations and costs incurred in connection with the integration of our acquisition of the Joytech assets also could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and operating results. If these risks materialize, our stock price could be materially adversely affected.
Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
We held an Annual and Special Meeting of Shareholders on September 7, 2007, which was adjourned and reconvened on October 2, 2007. The matters voted upon at the meeting included (a) the election of five directors to our Board of Directors, (b) the appointment of KPMG LLP as our Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm and Auditor and the authorization of the Board of Director to approve the Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm and Auditor’s remuneration and (c) the Mad Catz Interactive, Inc.
