Description of Business	'
	Note One — Description of Business
	Mattersight Corporation (together with its subsidiaries and predecessors, “Mattersight,” “we,” “us,” or the “Company”) is a leader in enterprise analytics focused on customer and employee interactions and behaviors. Through its Behavioral Analytics Service and related services (collectively, “Behavioral Analytics”), Mattersight captures and analyzes customer and employee interactions, employee desktop data, and other contextual information to optimally route customers to the best available employee, improve operational performance, and predict future customer and employee outcomes. Mattersight’s analytics are based on millions of proprietary algorithms and the application of unique behavioral models. The Company’s SaaS+ delivery model combines analytics in the cloud with deep customer partnerships to drive significant business value. Mattersight’s solutions are used by leading companies in the healthcare, insurance, financial services, telecommunications, cable, utilities, education, hospitality, and government industries.
	Through the performance of Behavioral Analytics, the Company generates two types of revenue:
		-1	Managed services revenue, which is recurring, annuity revenue from long-term (generally three- to five-year) contracts and pilots, which are shorter-term (generally three to twelve months), and includes subscription and amortized deployment revenue; and
		-2	Consulting services revenue, which is generally project-based and sold on a time-and-materials or fixed-fee basis and includes follow-on consulting services revenue.
	Set forth below is a more detailed description of the capabilities that the Company currently offers.
	Behavioral Analytics
	The Company’s multi-channel technology captures the unstructured data of voice interactions (conversations), related customer and employee data, and employee desktop activity, and applies millions of proprietary algorithms against those interactions. Each interaction contains hundreds of attributes that get scored and ultimately detect patterns of behavior or business process that provide the transparency and predictability necessary to enhance revenue, improve the customer experience, improve efficiency, and predict and navigate outcomes. Adaptive across industries, programs, and industry-specific processes, the Company’s Behavioral Analytics offerings enable its clients to drive measurable economic benefit through the improvement of contact center performance, customer satisfaction and retention, fraud reduction, and streamlined back office operations. Specifically, through its Behavioral Analytics offerings, Mattersight helps its clients:
		•		Identify optimal customer/employee behavioral pairing for call routing;
		•		Identify and understand customer personality;
		•		Automatically measure customer satisfaction and agent performance on every analyzed call;
		•		Improve rapport between agent and customer;
		•		Reduce call handle times while improving customer satisfaction;
		•		Identify opportunities to improve self-service applications;
		•		Improve cross-sell and up-sell success rates;
		•		Improve the efficiency and effectiveness of collection efforts;
		•		Measure and improve supervisor effectiveness and coaching;
		•		Improve agent effectiveness by analyzing key attributes of desktop usage;
		•		Predict likelihood of customer attrition;
		•		Predict customer satisfaction and Net Promoter Scores® without customer surveys;
		•		Predict likelihood of debt repayment;
		•		Predict likelihood of a sale or cross-sell; and
		•		Identify fraud callers and improve authentication processes.
	The Company has designed a highly-scalable, flexible, and adaptive application platform to enable the Company to implement and operate its Behavioral Analytics offerings for its clients. These offerings are primarily delivered through a SaaS+ model, as a managed subscription service from which Mattersight derives Managed services revenue and Consulting services revenue. Managed services revenue consists of revenue from deployment and subscription services and Consulting services revenue consists of revenue from post-deployment follow-on services, including coaching, training, and custom data analysis.
	In addition to our Behavioral Analytics offerings, Mattersight also generates revenue from the following services:
	(1) Marketing Managed Services, which consist of marketing application hosting services, from which the Company derives Managed services revenue; and
	(2) CRM Services, which consist of operational consulting services that enhance business performance through improved process efficiencies and redesign of workflows, from which the Company derives Consulting services revenue.
	Types of Revenue
	Managed Services Revenue
	Growth in Managed services revenue is primarily driven by the execution of new Behavioral Analytics contracts, under which we deploy and provide ongoing managed services related to our proprietary Behavioral Analytics System and provide related Business Monitoring services. Based on each client’s business requirements, the Behavioral Analytics System is configured and integrated into the client’s environment and then deployed in either a remote-hosted or, in one case, an on-premise hosted environment. Thereafter, the client’s selection of our Behavioral Analytics offerings is provided, on a subscription basis, for a period that is generally three to five years after the go-live date or, in the cases where the Company contracts with a client for a short-term pilot of the Behavioral Analytics Service prior to committing to a longer subscription period, if any, the subscription or pilot periods generally range from three to twelve months after the go-live date. The fees and costs related to the initial deployment are deferred and amortized over the subscription period.
	We also generate Managed services revenue from Marketing Managed Services, specifically, from hosted customer and campaign data management. This source of Managed services revenue will continue to diminish over time as we focus on growth through Behavioral Analytics.
	Consulting Services Revenue
	In addition to the Consulting services revenue generated by our Behavioral Analytics contracts, we derive a portion of this type of revenue from CRM Services for long-standing accounts. We expect Consulting services revenue from CRM Services to continue to diminish over time as demand for these services continues to decline and we focus on growth through Behavioral Analytics. We bill for Consulting services on a time-and-materials or fixed-fee basis.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies	'
	Note Two — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
	Fiscal Year-End
	The fiscal year-ends presented are fiscal years 2013, 2012, and 2011, respectively.
	By unanimous written consent effective December 26, 2012, the Company’s Board of Directors determined to change the Company’s fiscal year end from the last Saturday in December to December 31, beginning with fiscal 2012. Beginning with the fourth quarter of 2012, the Company’s fiscal quarters end on calendar quarter ends.
	Consolidation
	The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Mattersight and all of its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated.
	Use of Estimates
	The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those amounts.
	Reclassifications and Revisions
	The Company changed the revenue classification of one contract from Other revenue to Behavioral Analytics revenue in the fourth quarter of 2011 to better reflect the type of services provided under this contract. Revenue for this contract has been reclassified in all historical periods.
	The changes in the preceding paragraph did not have an impact on net (loss) income and are not material to the financial statements.
	Discontinued Operations
	The Company sold its Integrated Contact Solutions (“ICS”) Business Unit and “eLoyalty” registered trademark / trade name to Magellan Acquisition Sub, LLC, a Colorado limited liability company and wholly-owned subsidiary of TeleTech Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation, on May 28, 2011, and the Company changed its name from eLoyalty Corporation to Mattersight Corporation effective May 31, 2011. Therefore, the results of operations of the ICS Business Unit are reported as discontinued operations for all periods presented. Additionally, certain corporate and general costs that had historically been allocated to the ICS Business Unit were reallocated to the Company and are reflected in all periods presented. Mattersight now reports financial results on a single business segment, primarily focused on Behavioral Analytics.
	Revenue Recognition
	Continuing Operations
	Behavioral Analytics Revenue
	Behavioral Analytics revenue consists of Managed services revenue and Consulting services revenue derived from the performance of Behavioral Analytics.
	Managed services revenue consists of planning, deployment, training, and subscription fees derived from Behavioral Analytics contracts. Planning, deployment, and training fees, which are considered to be installation fees related to Behavioral Analytics subscription contracts, are deferred until the installation is complete and are then recognized over the subscription period of the applicable subscription contract. The subscription periods of these contracts generally range from three to five years after the go-live date or, in cases where the Company contracts with a client for a short-term pilot of Behavioral Analytics prior to committing to a longer subscription period, if any, the subscription or pilot periods generally range from three to twelve months after the go-live date. Installation costs incurred are deferred up to an amount not to exceed the amount of deferred installation revenue and additional amounts that are recoverable based on the contractual arrangement. These costs are included in Prepaid expenses and Other long-term assets. Such costs are amortized over the subscription period of the contract. Costs in excess of the foregoing revenue amount are expensed in the period incurred.
	The amount of revenue generated from subscription fees is based on a number of factors, such as the number of users to whom the Behavioral Analytics Service is provided, the type and number of Behavioral Analytics offerings deployed to the client, and in some cases, the number of hours of calls analyzed during the relevant month of the subscription period. This revenue is recognized as the service is performed for the client.
	Consulting services revenue primarily consists of fees charged to the Company’s clients to provide post-deployment follow-on consulting services, which include custom data analysis, the implementation of enhancements, and training. These follow-on consulting services are generally performed for the Company’s clients on a fixed-fee basis. Revenue is recognized as the services are performed, with performance generally assessed on the ratio of actual hours incurred to-date compared to the total estimated hours over the entire term of the contract.
	Other Revenue
	Other revenue consists of Marketing Managed Services revenue and CRM Services revenue.
	Marketing Managed Services revenue is derived from marketing application hosting. This revenue is generally in the form of fixed monthly fees received from the Company’s clients and is recognized as the services are performed for the client. Any related setup fee is recognized over the term of the hosting contract.
	CRM Services revenue consists of fees generated from the Company’s operational consulting services, which are provided to the Company’s clients on a time-and-materials or fixed-fee basis. The Company recognizes revenue as the services are performed for time-and-materials projects. For fixed-fee projects, revenue is recognized based on the ratio of hours incurred to-date compared to the total estimated hours over the entire term of the contract.
	Discontinued Operations
	ICS Business Unit
	Managed services revenue included in the ICS Business Unit consisted of fees generated from the Company’s contact center support and monitoring services. Support and monitoring services generally were contracted for a fixed fee, and the revenue was recognized ratably over the term of the contract. Support fees that were contracted on a time-and-materials basis were recognized as the services were performed for the client.
	For fixed fee Managed services contracts, where the Company provided support for third-party software and hardware, revenue was recorded at the gross amount of the sale. If the contract did not meet the requirements for gross reporting, then Managed services revenue was recorded at the net amount of the sale.
	Consulting services revenue included in the ICS Business Unit consisted of the modeling, planning, configuring, or integrating of an Internet Protocol network solution within the Company’s clients’ contact center environments. These services were provided to clients on a time-and-materials or fixed-fee basis. For the integration of a system, the Company recognized revenue as the services were performed, with performance generally assessed on the ratio of hours incurred to date compared to the total estimated hours over the entire term of the contract. For all other consulting services, the Company recognized revenue as the services were performed for the client.
	Revenue from the sale of Product, which was generated primarily from the resale of third-party software and hardware by the Company, was generally recorded at the gross amount of the sale when it was delivered to the client.
	For the ICS Business Unit, the Company utilized vendor-specific objective evidence of selling price (“VSOE”) to allocate revenue to various elements in an arrangement. The Company determined VSOE based on its normal pricing and discounting practices for the product or service when sold separately. In determining VSOE, the Company required that a substantial majority of the selling prices for a product or consulting services fall within a reasonably narrow pricing range, generally evidenced by approximately 80% of such historical standalone transactions falling within plus or minus 20% of the median selling price. For the ICS Business Unit’s managed services, the Company established VSOE through the stated renewal approach. The Company was able to establish VSOE for its product and service offerings except for software. If the Company was not able to establish VSOE for an offering, it attempted to establish fair value by utilizing evidence of selling price (“TPE”), which was established by obtaining evidence from comparable offerings from a peer company. If the Company was unable to establish fair value using VSOE or TPE, then the Company used estimated selling prices (“ESP”) in its allocation of revenue. To determine ESP, the Company applied significant judgment as it weighed a variety of factors, based on the facts and circumstances of the arrangement. These factors included internal costs, gross margin objectives, and existing portfolio pricing and discounting.
	Within discontinued operations, some of the Company’s sales arrangements had multiple deliverables containing software and related software components. Such sale arrangements were subject to the accounting guidance in ASC 985-605, Software Revenue Recognition.
	Cost of Revenue before Reimbursed Expenses, Exclusive of Depreciation and Amortization
	Cost of services primarily consists of labor costs, including salaries, fringe benefits, and incentive compensation, royalties, and other client-related third-party outside services. Cost of services excludes depreciation and amortization.
	If the Company’s estimates indicate that a contract loss will occur, then a loss provision is recorded in the period in which the loss first becomes probable and can be reasonably estimated.
	Sales, Marketing and Development
	Sales, marketing and development expenses consist primarily of salaries, incentive compensation, commissions, and employee benefits for business development, account management, marketing, and product development personnel. The personnel costs included in this item are net of any labor costs directly related to the generation of revenue, which are represented in Cost of Services.
	General and Administrative
	General and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries, incentive compensation, and employee benefits for administrative personnel, as well as facilities costs, a provision for uncollectible amounts, and costs for our corporate technology infrastructure and applications.
	Severance and Related Costs
	Severance and related costs includes cost-reduction actions, principally consisting of personnel reductions and an office consolidation. The portion of the accruals that related to employee severance represents contractual severance for identified employees and generally is not subject to a significant revision. The portion of the accruals that related to office space reductions, office closures, and associated contractual lease obligations are based in part on assumptions and estimates of the timing and amount of sublease rentals, which may be affected by overall economic and local market conditions. To the extent estimates of the success of our sublease efforts changed, adjustments increasing or decreasing the related accruals have been recognized.
	(Loss) Income Per Common Share
	The per common share basic net (loss) income available to common stockholders has been computed by dividing the net (loss) income available to common stockholders for each period presented by the weighted average shares outstanding. The per common share diluted (loss) income available to common stockholders has been computed by dividing the net (loss) income available to common stockholders by the weighted average shares outstanding plus the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents, which is primarily related to Series B Stock, using the “treasury stock” method. In periods in which there was a loss, the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents is not included in the diluted loss per share calculation as it was antidilutive.
	Fair Value of Financial Instruments
	The carrying values of current assets and liabilities approximated their fair values as of December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012. Fair value is an exit price and establishes a three-tier valuation hierarchy for ranking the quality and reliability of the information used to determine fair values. The first tier, Level 1, uses quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 uses inputs, other than quoted market prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets, which are observable either directly or indirectly. Level 3 uses unobservable inputs in which there are little or no market data, and requires the entity to develop its own assumptions. A financial asset or liability’s classification within the hierarchy is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
	Cash and Cash Equivalents
	The Company considers all highly liquid investments readily convertible into known amounts of cash (with original purchased maturities of three months or less) to be cash equivalents.
	Concentration of Credit Risk
	Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to a concentration of credit risk consist of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, and receivables. Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash consist of money market funds and deposits with high credit quality financial institutions. At times, such deposits may be in excess of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insurance limit. Accounts in the United States are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to $250,000. At December 31, 2013, the Company had non-interest bearing cash and interest bearing money market balances in excess of federally insured limits by $12.7 million. The Company’s receivables are derived from billings to clients located primarily in the U.S. and are denominated in U.S. dollars. For fiscal year 2013, there were four clients that accounted for 10% or more of total revenue: Vangent, Inc., Progressive Casualty Insurance Company, Allstate Insurance Company, and United HealthCare Services, Inc., accounted for 21%, 15%, 13%, and 11% of total revenue, respectively. For fiscal year 2012, there were three clients that accounted for 10% or more of total revenue: Vangent, Inc.; Allstate Insurance Company; and Progressive Casualty Insurance Company, which accounted for 19%, 16%, and 13% of total revenue, respectively. For fiscal year 2011, there were three clients that accounted for 10% or more of total revenue: Vangent, Inc.; Allstate Insurance Company; and Health Care Service Corporation, which accounted for 22%, 15%, and 14% of total revenue, respectively. As of December 31, 2013, four clients, United HealthCare Services, Inc., CVS Pharmacy, Inc., Allstate Insurance Company, and The Financial Times Limited accounted for 36%, 19%, 12%, and 11% of total gross accounts receivable, respectively. As of December 31, 2012, four clients, Progressive Casualty Insurance Company, United HealthCare Services, Inc., CVS Caremark Corporation, and Allstate Insurance Company accounted for 24%, 13%, 13%, and 10% of total gross accounts receivable, respectively.
	Equipment and Leasehold Improvements
	Computers, software, furniture, and equipment are carried at cost and depreciated on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the lesser of the useful life or the lease term. The useful life for computers and software is three years. For enterprise software applications where a longer useful life is deemed appropriate, five years is used. For furniture and equipment, a useful life of five years is used. Maintenance and repair costs are expensed as incurred. The cost and related accumulated depreciation of assets sold or disposed of are eliminated from the respective accounts and the resulting gain or loss is included in the statements of operations. The carrying value of equipment and leasehold improvements is periodically reviewed to assess recoverability based on future undiscounted cash flows. An impairment loss, if any, would be measured as the excess of the carrying value over the fair value. There was no impairment as of December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012.
	The Company accounts for software developed for internal use in accordance with the guidance provided under ASC Topic 350, which addresses accounting for the costs of computer software developed or obtained for internal use. As such, costs incurred that relate to the planning and post-implementation phases of development are expensed. Costs incurred during the application development stage are capitalized and amortized over the asset’s estimated useful life, which is generally three to five years.
	The Company leases certain equipment using both capital leases and operating leases. Assets leased under capital leases are recorded at the present value of future lease payments and depreciated on a straight line basis. All capital leases are for terms of either twenty-four, thirty or thirty-six months.
	Goodwill
	Goodwill is tested annually for impairment or more frequently if an event or circumstance indicates that an impairment loss may have been incurred. In performing our annual impairment test, we first perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value, including goodwill. If it is concluded that this is the case for one or more reporting units, we perform a detailed quantitative assessment using a two-step test approach. In the first step, the fair value of each reporting unit is compared with its carrying value. If the fair value exceeds the carrying value, then goodwill is not impaired and no further testing is performed. The second step is performed if the carrying value exceeds the fair value. The implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill must be determined and compared to the carrying value of the goodwill. If the carrying value of a reporting unit’s goodwill exceeds its implied fair value, then an impairment loss equal to the difference will be recorded. A detailed determination of the fair value of a reporting unit may be carried forward from one year to the next if specific criteria have been met. The Company currently operates in a single business segment or reporting unit.
	In 2013, after completing our annual qualitative review, we concluded that it was not more likely than not that the carrying value of our reporting unit exceeded its fair value. Accordingly, we concluded that further quantitative analysis and testing was not required, and no goodwill impairment charge was required.
	There has been no impairment identified as a result of the annual reviews of goodwill as of December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012. The carrying value of goodwill was $1.0 million as of December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012.
	Intangible Assets
	Intangible assets reflect costs related to patent and trademark applications, Marketing Managed Services customer relationships acquired in 2004, and the 2003 purchase of a license for certain intellectual property. Patent and trademark applications are amortized over 120 months. The other intangible assets are fully amortized. There was an impairment charge of less than $0.1 million for fiscal year 2013 and $0.1 million during fiscal year 2012.
		December 31,			December 31,
		2013			2012
	Gross intangible assets	$	3.2		$	2.9
	Accumulated amortization of intangible assets		(2.8	)		(2.7	)
Total	$	0.4		$	0.2
Other Long-Term Assets
Other long-term assets primarily consist of deferred costs and prepaid commissions related to Behavioral Analytics. These costs are recognized over the terms of the respective contracts, generally three to five years. Costs included in long-term assets will be recognized over the remaining term of the contracts beyond the first twelve months.
Income Taxes
The Company has recorded income tax valuation allowances on our net deferred tax assets to account for the unpredictability surrounding the timing of realization of our U.S. and non-U.S. net deferred tax assets due to uncertain economic conditions. The valuation allowances may be reversed at a point in time when management determines realization of these tax assets has become more likely than not, based on a return to predictable levels of profitability.
The Company uses an asset and liability approach for financial accounting and reporting of income taxes. Deferred income taxes are provided when tax laws and financial accounting standards differ with respect to the amount of income for the year, the basis of assets and liabilities and for tax loss carryforwards. The Company does not provide U.S. deferred income taxes on earnings of U.S. or foreign subsidiaries, which are expected to be indefinitely reinvested.
The Company may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position should be measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. Significant judgment is used to determine the likelihood of the benefit. There is additional guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties on income taxes, accounting in interim periods, and disclosure requirements.
Intraperiod tax allocation requires that the provision for income taxes be allocated between continuing operations and other categories of earnings (such as discontinued operations or other comprehensive loss) for each tax jurisdiction. In periods in which there is a year-to-date pre-tax loss from continuing operations and pre-tax income in other categories of earnings, the tax provision is first allocated to the other categories of earnings. A related tax benefit is then recorded in continuing operations. While intraperiod tax allocation in general does not change the overall tax provision, it does affect the amount of tax provision included in each category.
Short-Term Debt
On August 19, 2013, the Company, together with its wholly-owned subsidiaries Mattersight Europe Holding Corporation and Mattersight International Holding, Inc., as co-borrowers, entered into a Loan and Security Agreement with Partners for Growth IV, L.P. (“PfG”) (the “Credit Facility”). The Credit Facility is subordinated to the Company’s existing $10.0 million credit facility with Silicon Valley Bank described below and, in combination therewith, increases the Company’s aggregate lines of credit to $15.0 million. The Credit Facility provides for (a) a $3.0 million revolving line of credit maturing in 2016 (the “Tranche A Facility”) and (b) a $2.0 million convertible term loan (the “Tranche B Facility”), which, if advanced, would be funded in two tranches of $1.0 million, each evidenced by a convertible promissory note (each, a “Convertible Note”) maturing five years following the issuance thereof. The Company has not drawn on the Credit Facility as of December 31, 2013.
On May 30, 2013, the Company, together with its wholly-owned subsidiaries Mattersight Europe Holding Corporation and Mattersight International Holding, Inc., as co-borrowers, entered into an Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement with Silicon Valley Bank (the “Amended and Restated Credit Facility”). The Amended and Restated Credit Facility (i) extends the maturity date of the Company’s $10.0 million revolving line with Silicon Valley Bank to 2015; (ii) modifies the borrowing base from one based upon the Company’s unrestricted cash to one based upon the Company’s available accounts receivable, which is approximately 80% of eligible accounts receivable; (iii) provides for a varying interest rate based on the Company’s ratio of unrestricted cash to debt; and (iv) requires the Company to maintain a tangible net worth of at least $3.0 million dollars. The terms and conditions of the Amended and Restated Credit Facility are otherwise substantially the same as those contained in the Loan and Security Agreement, dated June 29, 2012, by and between the Company, the subsidiary co-borrowers thereto, and Silicon Valley Bank. Through the maturity date, the Company is obligated to pay a fee equal to one-eighth of one percent (0.125%) per annum of the average unused portion of the Amended and Restated Credit Facility, payable quarterly in arrears. For more information relating to the terms of the Loan and Security Agreement with the “Credit Facility” and the Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement with the “Amended and Restated Credit Facility”, see Note Ten “Short-Term Debt” of the “Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements” included in Part II Item 8 of this Form 10-K.
Unearned Revenue
Payments received for Managed services contracts in excess of the amount of revenue recognized for these contracts are recorded as unearned revenue until revenue recognition criteria are met.
Stockholders’ Equity
Stockholders’ equity includes Common Stock issued, additional paid-in capital, accumulated deficit, treasury stock, and accumulated other comprehensive loss. The 1.6 million shares of Series B Stock are not classified as permanent equity or a liability in the accompanying balance sheets. These shares of Series B Stock are conditionally redeemable and do not meet the definition of a mandatorily redeemable financial instrument. The holders of Series B Stock have the ability to initiate a redemption upon the occurrence of certain events that are considered outside the Company’s control.
Foreign Currency Translation
The functional currencies for the Company’s foreign subsidiaries are their local currencies. All assets and liabilities of foreign subsidiaries are translated to U.S. dollars at end of period exchange rates. The resulting translation adjustments are recorded as a component of stockholders’ equity and comprehensive income (loss). Income and expense items are translated at average exchange rates prevailing during the period. Foreign currency net losses and gains were a $6 thousand gain for fiscal year 2013, losses of $1 thousand for fiscal year 2012, and $350 thousand for fiscal year 2011, respectively. These foreign currency transactions from subsidiaries are included in interest and other income within the consolidated statements of operations.
Stock-Based Compensation
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 vesting period. Determining fair value of stock-based awards at the grant date requires certain assumptions. The Company uses historical information as the primary basis for the selection of expected life, expected volatility, expected dividend yield assumptions, and anticipated forfeiture rates. The risk-free interest rate is selected based on the yields from U.S. Treasury Strips with a remaining term equal to the expected term of the options being valued.
Stock Warrants
In accordance with ASC 480-10 (“Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity”), the Company classified certain warrants to purchase Common Stock that do not meet the requirements for classification as equity, as liabilities. Such liabilities are initially recorded at fair value with subsequent changes in fair value recorded as a component of gain or loss on warrant liability on the consolidated statements of operations in each reporting period. If these warrants subsequently meet the requirements of equity classification, the Company reclassifies the fair value to equity. Fair value of the warrants was measured using a Monte Carlo option pricing model and in applying this model certain assumptions were used. See Note Twenty, “Stock Warrants”.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In July 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU No. 2013-11, Income Taxes (Topic 740) – Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists. ASU 2013-11 provides guidance on the financial statement presentation of an unrecognized tax benefit when a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward exists. An unrecognized tax benefit should be presented in the financial statements as a reduction to a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward with certain exceptions, in which case such an unrecognized tax benefit should be presented in the financial statements as a liability. The amendments in this ASU are effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2013. The adoption of this ASU is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

	Income from discontinued operations		—		0.2			28.9
	Intraperiod tax allocation requires that the provision for income taxes be allocated between continuing operations and other categories of earnings (such as discontinued operations or other comprehensive income) for each tax jurisdiction. In periods in which there is a year-to-date pre-tax loss from continuing operations and pre-tax income in other categories of earnings, the tax provision is first allocated to the other categories of earnings. A related tax benefit is then recorded in continuing operations. While intraperiod tax allocation in general does not change the overall tax provision, it may result in a gross-up of the individual components, thereby changing the amount of tax provision included in each category. For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013, the intraperiod allocation was not applicable because we no longer have any discontinued operations activity. Since continuing operations and discontinued operations both reported a pre-tax loss for the year ended December 31, 2012, an intraperiod tax allocation was not required for the year. Included in continuing operations income tax provision is tax expense of $38 thousand for the year ended December 31, 2012 and a tax benefit of $5.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2011. Included in discontinued operations income tax provision is a tax benefit of $0.3 million due to a favorable ruling from the Internal Revenue Service for the year ended December 31, 2012 and tax expense of $6.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2011. Depending upon the level of the Company’s future earnings and losses and their impact on income from discontinued operations, it is possible that these tax adjustments may change or even reverse in future periods.

	The 2012 earnings and gain from discontinued operations included $0.3 million of tax benefit due to a favorable ruling from the Internal Revenue Service. The 2011 earnings and gain from discontinued operations included $6.8 million of tax expense.
	Total income tax benefit differed from the amount computed by applying the federal statutory income tax rate due to the following:

	Income tax benefit	$	0.2		$	—		$	5.9
	The Company may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position should be measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. Significant judgment is used to determine the likelihood of the benefit. There is additional guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties on income taxes, accounting in interim periods, and disclosure requirements.
	A reconciliation of the gross amounts of unrecognized tax benefits at the beginning and end of the year are as follows:
		For the Fiscal Years Ended
		2013			2012			2011
	Balance at beginning of year	$	12.9		$	12.9		$	12.8
	Additions based on tax positions related to the current year		—			—			0.3
	Additions for tax positions of prior years		—			—			—
	Reductions for tax positions of prior years		(0.3	)		—			(0.2	)
	Reductions for tax positions as a result of lapse of statute		—			—			—
	Settlements		—			—			—
	Balance at end of year	$	12.6		$	12.9		$	12.9
	Due to the Company’s worldwide net operating loss carryforward position, these unrecognized tax benefits will not impact the Company’s effective tax rate, if recognized. Any change in the amount of unrecognized tax benefits within the next twelve months is not expected to result in a significant impact on the results of operations or the financial position of the Company.
	Due to the Company’s worldwide net operating loss carryforward position, accrued interest and penalties associated with uncertain tax positions as of December 31, 2013 are not material. Interest and penalties associated with uncertain tax positions are recorded as part of income tax expense.
	The statutes of limitation for the Company’s income tax returns after 2001 effectively remain open for examination by the IRS because the net operating loss carryforward from those years can be examined by the IRS for a period of three years after filing the tax return for the year the loss is used. In 2011, an audit of fiscal years 2008 and 2009 was completed by the IRS. This audit resulted in a reduction of the Company’s net operating loss carryforward from these years and no tax liability. This reduction is reflected in this tax footnote.
	Foreign and U.S. state jurisdictions have statutes of limitations generally ranging from three to five years. The state impact of any federal changes remains subject to examination by various states for a period of up to one year after formal notification to the states. The Company and its subsidiaries may have various state and foreign income tax returns for immaterial jurisdictions in the process of examination throughout the reporting period.
	Deferred tax assets and liabilities were comprised of the following:
		As of
		December 31,			December 31,
		2013			2012
	Deferred tax assets:
	Net operating loss carryforwards	$	64		$	60.4
	Other accruals		4.7			4.7
	Depreciation and amortization, including goodwill		0.6			0.1
	Tax credit carryforward		0.5			0.5
	Valuation allowance		(67.6	)		(63.8	)
	Total deferred tax assets		2.2			1.9
	Deferred tax liabilities:
	Prepaid expenses		(2.3	)		(2.0	)
	Total deferred tax liabilities		(2.3	)		(2.0	)
	Net deferred tax liability	$	(0.1	)	$	(0.1	)
	Deferred income taxes are not provided on certain undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries that are expected to be permanently reinvested in those companies. These earnings aggregated to an immaterial amount at each of December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012.
	Intraperiod tax allocation requires that the provision for income taxes be allocated between continuing operations and other categories of earnings (such as discontinued operations or other comprehensive loss) for each tax jurisdiction. In periods in which there is a year-to-date pre-tax loss from continuing operations and pre-tax income in other categories of earnings, the tax provision is first allocated to the other categories of earnings. A related tax benefit is then recorded in continuing operations. While intraperiod tax allocation in general does not change the overall tax provision, it does affect the amount of tax provision included in each category. Since continuing operations and discontinued operations both reported a pre-tax loss for the year ended December 31, 2012, an intraperiod tax allocation was not required for the year. Included in continuing operations income tax provision is tax expense of $38 thousand for the year ended December 31, 2012. Included in discontinued operations income tax provision is tax benefit of $0.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2012.
During fiscal year 2002, the Company established a valuation allowance related to deferred tax assets for the U.S. This was in addition to the valuation allowance established in 2001 for non-U.S. deferred tax assets. The Company continues to provide a valuation allowance on significantly all domestic and foreign deferred tax assets as the Company has determined that it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets in these jurisdictions will not be realized. As of December 31, 2013, net deferred tax assets of $67.6 million were fully offset by a valuation allowance. The Company’s U.S. Federal net operating losses (“NOLs”) of $204.9 million and U.S. State NOLs of $125.5 million will expire beginning in 2022 and 2014, respectively. The Company’s non-U.S. NOLs of $0.9 million are subject to various expiration dates beginning in 2014. The Company also carries $0.5 million in Research and Development credit carryforwards that will expire beginning in 2020.
The Company’s ability to utilize its NOLs could become subject to significant limitations under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code if the Company were to undergo an ownership change. An ownership change would occur if the stockholders who own or have owned, directly or indirectly, 5% or more of the Company’s Common Stock or are otherwise treated as 5% stockholders under Section 382 and the regulations promulgated thereunder, increase their aggregate percentage ownership of the Company’s stock by more than 50 percentage points over the lowest percentage of the stock owned by these stockholders at any time during the testing period, which is generally the three-year period preceding the potential ownership change. In the event of an ownership change, Section 382 imposes an annual limitation on the amount of taxable income a corporation may offset with NOL carryforwards. Any unused annual limitation may be carried over to later years until the applicable expiration date for the respective NOL carryforwards. The Company has undergone a Section 382 analysis and does not believe there is a limitation on the use of NOLs under Section 382. If a change in ownership is deemed to have occurred during the past three years, then it may be possible that the Company’s NOL carryforward could be subject to limitation under Section 382 for tax return purposes. However, since its NOL carryforward is fully reserved with a valuation allowance, there would be no impact for financial statement purposes from a Section 382 limitation.

	On August 19, 2013, the Company together with its wholly-owned subsidiaries Mattersight Europe Holding Corporation and Mattersight International Holding, Inc., as co-borrowers, entered into a Loan and Security Agreement with Partners for Growth IV, L.P. (“PfG”) (the “Credit Facility”). In connection with the execution of the Credit Facility the Company granted to PfG, certain affiliates of PfG, and Silicon Valley Bank warrants (the “PfG Warrants”) to purchase shares of Common Stock see Note Twenty — Stock Warrants for additional information. The Credit Facility is subordinated to the Company’s existing $10.0 million credit facility with Silicon Valley Bank described below and, in combination therewith, increases the Company’s aggregate lines of credit to $15.0 million. The Credit Facility provides for (a) a $3.0 million revolving line of credit maturing in 2016 (the “Tranche A Facility”) and (b) a $2.0 million convertible term loan (the “Tranche B Facility”), which, if advanced, would be funded in two tranches of $1.0 million, each evidenced by a convertible promissory note (each, a “Convertible Note”) maturing five years following the issuance thereof. The Company has not drawn on the Credit Facility as of December 31, 2013.
	With respect to the Tranche A Facility, the Company paid a commitment fee upon closing the Credit Facility of $60 thousand, equal to two percent (2.0%) of the Tranche A Facility commitment, and will pay an annual commitment fee of one percent (1.0%) of the Tranche A Facility commitment in each of 2014 and 2015 and (b) with respect to the Tranche B Facility, the Company paid a commitment fee upon closing the Credit Facility of $20 thousand, equal to one percent (1.0%) of the Tranche B Facility commitment, and will pay one percent (1.0%) of the Tranche B Facility commitment upon the advance of each Convertible Note. Furthermore, the principal amount outstanding under the Credit Facility, if drawn upon, will accrue interest at a fixed annual rate equal to nine and three quarters percent (9.75%) per annum, payable monthly, which, if the Company meets certain earnings and EBITDA targets, will be reduced to eight and three quarters percent (8.75%) per annum, payable monthly.
	On May 30, 2013, the Company, together with its wholly-owned subsidiaries Mattersight Europe Holding Corporation and Mattersight International Holding, Inc., as co-borrowers, entered into an Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement with Silicon Valley Bank (the “Amended and Restated Credit Facility”). The Amended and Restated Credit Facility (i) extends the maturity date of the Company’s $10.0 million revolving line with Silicon Valley Bank to 2015, (ii) modifies the borrowing base from one based upon the Company’s unrestricted cash to one based upon the Company’s available accounts receivable, (iii) provides for a varying interest rate based on the Company’s ratio of unrestricted cash to debt, and (iv) requires the Company to maintain a tangible net worth of at least $3.0 million dollars. The terms and conditions of the Amended and Restated Credit Facility are otherwise substantially the same as those contained in the Loan and Security Agreement, dated June 29, 2012, by and between the Company, the subsidiary co-borrowers thereto, and Silicon Valley Bank. The Company repaid the $3.7 million of short-term debt outstanding on December 4, 2013. Through the maturity date, the Company is obligated to pay a fee equal to one-eighth of one percent (0.125%) per annum of the average unused portion of the Amended and Restated Credit Facility, payable quarterly in arrears. Interest expense for the fiscal years ended 2013 and 2012 was $0.1 million and $0.1 million, respectively. The interest rate for the year ended December 31, 2013 was 4%. The Company was in compliance with all of its debt covenants under the Amended and Restated Credit Facility as of December 31, 2013. As of December 31, 2013, the Company has not drawn any funds on its Credit Facilities.

	On November 26, 2013, the Company entered into a Common Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”), with certain accredited investors party thereto (collectively, the “Purchasers”). Under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the Company sold, and the Purchasers purchased from the Company, 1,538,462 shares (the “Shares”) of Common Stock, at a price of $3.90 per share (the “Offering”). The aggregate gross proceeds, net of fees, the Company received from the Offering were approximately $5.6 million. Approximately 39.9% of the Shares were purchased by directors of the Company, or by their affiliates. Commissions of $0.3 million were paid in connection with the sale of the Shares. The Shares were sold without registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or state securities laws, in reliance on Rule 506 of the Securities Act and in reliance on similar exemptions under applicable state laws. Each of the purchasers is an accredited investor within the meaning of Rule 501(a) of Regulation D and the Shares were sold without any general solicitation by the Company or its representatives.
	During fiscal year 2012, the Company announced its intention to commence a tender offer to purchase up to 111,605 shares of Series B Stock at a cash purchase price of $8.60 per share, plus accrued and unpaid dividends.
	In accordance with the terms and conditions of the tender offer, Mattersight purchased 19,758 shares of its Series B Stock, at a price of $8.71 per share (representing $8.60 per share plus accrued and unpaid dividends), for an aggregate cost of approximately $172,092, excluding fees and expenses related to the tender offer. These shares represented approximately 1.2% of the Series B Stock outstanding as of April 13, 2012.

	In December 2001, at the time of issuance of the Series B Stock, a beneficial conversion adjustment was calculated (since the fair market value of a share of Common Stock at the time exceeded the purchase price of a share of Series B Stock) aggregating $4.0 million. The Series B Stock was recorded at the date of issuance net of issuance costs and the beneficial conversion adjustment. The discount attributable to the issuance costs was fully accreted on the date of issuance by charging additional paid-in capital and increasing the recorded amount of Series B Stock. The Series B Stock was accreted to its full redemption value of $23.3 million on a straight-line basis from the date of issuance to June 19, 2002 by charging additional paid-in capital $0.7 million per month and increasing the recorded amount of Series B Stock by a like amount.
	The Series B Stock accrues dividends at a rate of 7% per annum, is entitled to a preference upon liquidation, and is convertible on a one-for-one basis into shares of Common Stock, subject to adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends, and similar actions. The Series B Stock generally votes on a one-for-one basis with the Common Stock, subject to adjustment for certain actions and specified matters as to which the Series B Stock is entitled to a separate class vote.

Stock-Based Compensation	'
	Note Thirteen — Stock-Based Compensation
	The Company has two stock-based compensation plans: the Mattersight Corporation 1999 Stock Incentive Plan (the “1999 Plan”) and the Mattersight Corporation Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “ESPP”). Historically, the Company issued stock awards under both the 1999 Plan and the Mattersight Corporation 2000 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2000 Plan”). However, the 2000 Plan expired in accordance with its terms on September 23, 2011, ten years after the effective date of the last amendment and restatement thereof, and no further awards have been issued thereunder. At that time, 20,620 treasury shares, representing all authorized and unissued treasury shares under the 2000 Plan, were cancelled.
	Under the 1999 Plan, awards of restricted stock, installment stock, salary replacement, commissions, stock options, and stock appreciation rights may be granted to directors, officers, employees, consultants, independent contractors, and agents of the Company and its subsidiaries. Awards granted under the 1999 Plan are made at the discretion of the Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Compensation Committee”). If shares or options awarded under the 1999 Plan are not issued due to cancellation of unvested or unexercised options or shares, then those shares or options again become available for issuance under the 1999 Plan. Under the 1999 Plan, on the first day of each fiscal year, the aggregate number of shares available for issuance under the 1999 Plan is automatically increased by an amount equal to 5% of the total number of shares of Common Stock that are outstanding. At the 2008 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, stockholders approved the amendment and restatement of the 1999 Plan to increase the number of shares available for issuance under the 1999 Plan by 1,500,000.
	Stock-based compensation expense was $5.6 million, $3.7 million, and $5.4 million, for fiscal years ended 2013, 2012, and 2011, respectively. The Company recognizes stock compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the vesting period. The Company has established its forfeiture rate based on historical experience. The Company does not recognize the windfall tax benefit related to the excess tax deduction because the Company currently does not anticipate realizing the tax savings associated with this deduction. The amount of this excess tax deduction was $0 for each of fiscal years ended December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012.
	As of December 31, 2013, there were a total of 1,501,600 shares of Common Stock available for future grants under the 1999 Plan and from treasury stock. The Company’s Common Stock is traded on the NASDAQ Global Market under the symbol MATR.
	Restricted Stock
	Restricted stock awards are shares of Common Stock granted to an individual that do not immediately vest but rather, vest over a period of time. During the vesting period, the holder of granted restricted stock receives all of the benefits of ownership (right to dividends, voting rights, etc.), other than the right to sell or otherwise transfer any interest in the stock. Installment stock awards are grants to an individual of a contractual right to receive future shares of Common Stock in specified amounts on specified vesting dates, subject to the individual remaining a Mattersight employee on the specified vesting dates. The holder has no benefits of ownership in installment stock until such time as the installment stock actually vests.
	Restricted and installment stock award activity was as follows for the years ended December 31, 2011, December 31, 2012, and December 31, 2013:

	As of December 31, 2013, there remains $2.1 million of unrecognized compensation expense related to restricted and installment stock awards. These costs are expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.5 years. The Company estimated the forfeiture rate at 3% for fiscal years 2013, 2012, and 2011.
	Stock Options
	Stock option awards may be in the form of incentive or non-qualified options. Stock options are granted with an exercise price per share equal to the fair market value of a share of the Common Stock on the date of grant, and have a maximum term of 10 years. The stock option terms are set by the Compensation Committee and generally become exercisable over a period of four years. The vesting can begin in equal monthly or quarterly increments over the vesting period.
	In addition, the 1999 Plan provides that each non-employee director, upon commencing service, shall receive a non-qualified stock option to purchase 50,000 shares of Common Stock that vests ratably over a period of 48 months. The 1999 Plan also provided that each non-employee director received a non-qualified stock option to purchase 5,000 shares of Common Stock, which was granted annually, the day after the Company’s annual stockholders’ meeting (the “Annual Grant”). Stock options granted to non-employee directors have an exercise price per share equal to the fair market value of a share of Common Stock on the grant date, and are exercisable for up to 10 years. By action of the Board of Directors, the 1999 Plan was amended such that, commencing with the 2013 annual stockholders’ meeting, the size of the Annual Grant to each non-employee director increased from 5,000 to 10,000 shares.
	During fiscal year 2013, options to purchase a total of 467,500 shares of Common Stock were granted. On February 13, 2013, one employee received options to purchase a total of 5,000 shares of Common Stock. The exercise price per share was $4.48, the closing price for shares of Common Stock on the grant date. The options will vest 25% on February 28, 2014, and the balance will vest ratably over the following 12 quarters, with a maximum exercise term of 10 years. On March 15, 2013, the Company’s executive officers and other employees received options to purchase a total of 342,500 shares of Common Stock. The exercise price per share was $4.69, the closing price for shares of Common Stock on the grant date. The options vested 6.25% on May 31, 2013, and the balance will vest ratably over the following 15 quarters, with a maximum exercise term of 10 years.

As of December 31, 2013, there remained $2.5 million of unrecognized compensation expense related to stock options. These costs are expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.8 years.
The fair value for options granted during fiscal years 2013, 2012, and 2011 was estimated on the date of grant using a Black Scholes option-pricing model. The Company used the following weighted average assumptions:
	For the Fiscal Years Ended
	2013			2012			2011
Risk-free interest rates		0.7	%		0.6	%		0.9	%
Expected dividend yield		—			—			—
Expected volatility		67	%		67	%		67	%
Expected lives		6.0 years			6.0 years			6.0 years
Historical Company information is the primary basis for the selection of expected life, expected volatility, and expected dividend yield assumptions. The risk-free interest rate is selected based on the yields from U.S. Treasury Strips with a remaining term equal to the expected term of the options being valued.
Other Stock Compensation
Employee Stock Purchase Plan
The ESPP is intended to qualify as an “employee stock purchase plan” under section 423 of the Internal Revenue Code. Under the ESPP, eligible employees are permitted to purchase shares of Common Stock at below-market prices. The purchase period opens on the first day and ends on the last business day of each calendar quarter. The shares of Common Stock issued in respect of employee purchases under the ESPP during the fiscal years ended 2013, 2012, and 2011 were as follows:
	For the Fiscal Years Ended
	2013			2012			2011
Shares of Common Stock issued		40,959			27,939			29,554
Expense related to ESPP (in thousands)	$	39		$	46		$	39
The fair value for ESPP purchases during fiscal years 2013, 2012, and 2011 was estimated using a Black Scholes model. The Company used the following weighted average assumptions:

Salary Replacement Program
On May 9, 2013, the Compensation Committee approved the reinstatement of the Salary Replacement Program (the “Program”) for the period from July 1, 2013 through June 30, 2014 (the “Effective Period”). Participation was mandatory for any employee whose annual base salary was equal to or greater than $125,000 (each such employee, a “Participant”). Under the Program, Participants received periodic grants of unrestricted Common Stock (subject to Compensation Committee approval of each grant to the executive officers) in exchange for a 25% reduction in the cash salaries otherwise payable to Participants.
On August 7, 2013, the Compensation Committee suspended the Program. The Company no longer reduces cash salaries for periodic grants of unrestricted Common Stock. Effective October 1, 2013, the Company’s executive officers and other affected employees received their full salaries in cash.
A total of 146,267 shares of Common Stock were granted to employees under the Program during fiscal year 2013. The Company recorded $0.6 million of expense for the Program during the fiscal year ended 2013.
Commissions
The Company paid commissions with shares of unrestricted Common Stock from May 2013 to July 2013. A total of 345,324 shares of unrestricted Common Stock were granted to employees in payment of earned commissions during fiscal year 2013. In connection therewith, the Company recorded $0.5 million of expense during fiscal year 2013.

Fair Value Measurements	'
	Note Sixteen — Fair Value Measurements
	The Company reports certain assets and liabilities at fair value. Fair value is an exit price and establishes a three-tier valuation hierarchy for ranking the quality and reliability of the information used to determine fair values. The first tier, Level 1, uses quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 uses inputs, other than quoted market prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets, which are observable either directly or indirectly. Level 3 uses unobservable inputs in which there are little or no market data, and requires the entity to develop its own assumptions. A financial asset or liability’s classification within the hierarchy is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
	The following table provides the assets and liabilities carried at fair value measured on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012:

Stock Warrants	'
	Note Twenty — Stock Warrants
	The Company granted to PfG, certain affiliates of PfG, and Silicon Valley Bank warrants (the “PfG Warrants”) to purchase up to $600 thousand of Common Stock. The PfG Warrants were issued in connection with the execution of the Credit Facility, and the Company received the sum of approximately $4 thousand, which the parties agreed was fair consideration for the PfG Warrants, in connection with such issuance.
	The holders of the PfG Warrants (or their permitted successors and assigns), are entitled to exercise or exchange the PfG Warrants at any time through August 19, 2018, for the number of duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid, and non-assessable shares of Common Stock as up to $600 thousand would purchase at the exercise price (described below), upon the terms and subject to the provisions of the PfG Warrants. The exercise price of the PfG Warrants is equal to the lesser of (a) $2.79 and (b) the 10-Day VWAP as of the date that is six months following the issue date thereof.
	The Company also granted warrants (the “Conditional Warrants”) to PfG to purchase up to $2.0 million of Common Stock, which may be exercised, at the same exercise price as is specified for the Convertible Notes, only if both (i) the Tranche B Facility is advanced and (ii) the Company prepays the Tranche B Facility, in whole or in part, prior to the maturity date thereof. The Conditional Warrants may be exercised only in an amount equal to the principal amount of such prepayment. As of December 31, 2013, the Tranche B Facility had not been advanced.
	The PfG Warrants and the Conditional Warrants, and the shares of Common Stock to be issued upon exercise of the PfG Warrants and the Conditional Warrants, have not been and will not be registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or any state securities law and were issued pursuant to an exemption from registration provided by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act and/or Regulation D promulgated thereunder. Neither the PfG Warrants and the Conditional Warrants, nor the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the PfG Warrants and the Conditional Warrants, may be subsequently offered or sold within the United States absent registration or exemption from such registration requirements and compliance with applicable state laws.
	A summary of the status of the Warrants at December 31, 2013, and the changes during the fiscal year ended 2013, is presented in the following table:

Litigation and Other Contingencies	'
	Note Twenty-One — Litigation and Other Contingencies
	The Company is a party to various agreements, including all client contracts, under which it may be obligated to indemnify the other party with respect to certain matters, including, but not limited to, indemnification against third-party claims of infringement of intellectual property rights with respect to software and other deliverables provided by the Company in the course of providing services to its clients. These obligations may be subject to various limitations on the remedies available to the other party, including, without limitation, limits on the amounts recoverable and the time during which claims may be made, and may be supported by indemnities given to the Company by applicable third parties. Payment by the Company under these indemnification clauses is generally subject to the other party making a claim that is subject to challenge by the Company and dispute resolution procedures specified in the particular agreement. Historically, the Company has not been obligated to pay any claim for indemnification under its agreements, and management is not aware of future indemnification payments that it would be obligated to make.
	Under its By-Laws, subject to certain exceptions, the Company has agreed to indemnify its officers and directors for certain events or occurrences while the officer or director is, or was, serving at its request in such capacity or in certain related capacities. The Company has separate indemnification agreements with each of its directors and officers that requires it, subject to certain exceptions, to indemnify them to the fullest extent authorized or permitted by its By-Laws and the Delaware General Corporation Law. The maximum potential amount of future payments the Company could be required to make under these indemnification agreements is unlimited; however, the Company has a director and officer liability insurance policy that limits its exposure and enables it to recover a portion of any future amounts paid. As a result of its insurance policy coverage, the Company believes the estimated fair value of these indemnification agreements is minimal. The Company had no liabilities recorded for these agreements as of December 31, 2013.

Restatement - Basic and Diluted Loss Per Share from Continuing Operations	'
	Note Twenty-Three — Restatement — Basic and Diluted Loss Per Share from Continuing Operations
	During the second quarter of 2012, the Company identified an error relating to its calculation of basic and diluted loss per share from continuing operations in its previously issued financial statements. As described in Note Twelve “Capital Stock and Series B Stock”, the Company has paid periodic dividends on the Series B Stock and in 2011 repurchased certain shares of Series B Stock. Although the Company accounted for the dividends and repurchase in its consolidated financial statements, it did not deduct the dividends or, in 2011, the amounts paid in excess of liquidation value in connection with the repurchase of certain shares of Series B Stock, when calculating basic and diluted loss per share from continuing operations. The error occurred in 2011 and 2010, affecting the annual periods and all quarterly periods within these years.
	To correct this error, the Company restated its previously issued Consolidated Statements of Operations for fiscal years 2011 and 2010. In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification 260, “Earnings Per Share”, the restatement deducts from such amounts dividends paid on the Series B Stock and, for 2011, amounts paid in excess of liquidation value in connection with the repurchase of certain shares of Series B Stock.
	The change in presentation had no effect on any other amounts or financial statement line items. All prior periods have been restated to reflect such corrections.
	The following tables summarize the corrections to basic and diluted loss per share from continuing operations for fiscal year 2011.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]	'
Fiscal Year-End	'
	Fiscal Year-End
	The fiscal year-ends presented are fiscal years 2013, 2012, and 2011, respectively.
	By unanimous written consent effective December 26, 2012, the Company’s Board of Directors determined to change the Company’s fiscal year end from the last Saturday in December to December 31, beginning with fiscal 2012. Beginning with the fourth quarter of 2012, the Company’s fiscal quarters end on calendar quarter ends.
Consolidation	'
	Consolidation
	The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Mattersight and all of its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated.
Use of Estimates	'
	Use of Estimates
	The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those amounts.
Reclassifications and Revisions	'
	Reclassifications and Revisions
	The Company changed the revenue classification of one contract from Other revenue to Behavioral Analytics revenue in the fourth quarter of 2011 to better reflect the type of services provided under this contract. Revenue for this contract has been reclassified in all historical periods.
	The changes in the preceding paragraph did not have an impact on net (loss) income and are not material to the financial statements.
Discontinued Operations	'
	Discontinued Operations
	The Company sold its Integrated Contact Solutions (“ICS”) Business Unit and “eLoyalty” registered trademark / trade name to Magellan Acquisition Sub, LLC, a Colorado limited liability company and wholly-owned subsidiary of TeleTech Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation, on May 28, 2011, and the Company changed its name from eLoyalty Corporation to Mattersight Corporation effective May 31, 2011. Therefore, the results of operations of the ICS Business Unit are reported as discontinued operations for all periods presented. Additionally, certain corporate and general costs that had historically been allocated to the ICS Business Unit were reallocated to the Company and are reflected in all periods presented. Mattersight now reports financial results on a single business segment, primarily focused on Behavioral Analytics.
Revenue Recognition Continuing Operations	'
	Revenue Recognition
	Continuing Operations
	Behavioral Analytics Revenue
	Behavioral Analytics revenue consists of Managed services revenue and Consulting services revenue derived from the performance of Behavioral Analytics.
	Managed services revenue consists of planning, deployment, training, and subscription fees derived from Behavioral Analytics contracts. Planning, deployment, and training fees, which are considered to be installation fees related to Behavioral Analytics subscription contracts, are deferred until the installation is complete and are then recognized over the subscription period of the applicable subscription contract. The subscription periods of these contracts generally range from three to five years after the go-live date or, in cases where the Company contracts with a client for a short-term pilot of Behavioral Analytics prior to committing to a longer subscription period, if any, the subscription or pilot periods generally range from three to twelve months after the go-live date. Installation costs incurred are deferred up to an amount not to exceed the amount of deferred installation revenue and additional amounts that are recoverable based on the contractual arrangement. These costs are included in Prepaid expenses and Other long-term assets. Such costs are amortized over the subscription period of the contract. Costs in excess of the foregoing revenue amount are expensed in the period incurred.
	The amount of revenue generated from subscription fees is based on a number of factors, such as the number of users to whom the Behavioral Analytics Service is provided, the type and number of Behavioral Analytics offerings deployed to the client, and in some cases, the number of hours of calls analyzed during the relevant month of the subscription period. This revenue is recognized as the service is performed for the client.
	Consulting services revenue primarily consists of fees charged to the Company’s clients to provide post-deployment follow-on consulting services, which include custom data analysis, the implementation of enhancements, and training. These follow-on consulting services are generally performed for the Company’s clients on a fixed-fee basis. Revenue is recognized as the services are performed, with performance generally assessed on the ratio of actual hours incurred to-date compared to the total estimated hours over the entire term of the contract.
	Other Revenue
	Other revenue consists of Marketing Managed Services revenue and CRM Services revenue.
	Marketing Managed Services revenue is derived from marketing application hosting. This revenue is generally in the form of fixed monthly fees received from the Company’s clients and is recognized as the services are performed for the client. Any related setup fee is recognized over the term of the hosting contract.
	CRM Services revenue consists of fees generated from the Company’s operational consulting services, which are provided to the Company’s clients on a time-and-materials or fixed-fee basis. The Company recognizes revenue as the services are performed for time-and-materials projects. For fixed-fee projects, revenue is recognized based on the ratio of hours incurred to-date compared to the total estimated hours over the entire term of the contract.
Revenue Recognition Discontinued Operations	'
	Discontinued Operations
	ICS Business Unit
	Managed services revenue included in the ICS Business Unit consisted of fees generated from the Company’s contact center support and monitoring services. Support and monitoring services generally were contracted for a fixed fee, and the revenue was recognized ratably over the term of the contract. Support fees that were contracted on a time-and-materials basis were recognized as the services were performed for the client.
	For fixed fee Managed services contracts, where the Company provided support for third-party software and hardware, revenue was recorded at the gross amount of the sale. If the contract did not meet the requirements for gross reporting, then Managed services revenue was recorded at the net amount of the sale.
	Consulting services revenue included in the ICS Business Unit consisted of the modeling, planning, configuring, or integrating of an Internet Protocol network solution within the Company’s clients’ contact center environments. These services were provided to clients on a time-and-materials or fixed-fee basis. For the integration of a system, the Company recognized revenue as the services were performed, with performance generally assessed on the ratio of hours incurred to date compared to the total estimated hours over the entire term of the contract. For all other consulting services, the Company recognized revenue as the services were performed for the client.
	Revenue from the sale of Product, which was generated primarily from the resale of third-party software and hardware by the Company, was generally recorded at the gross amount of the sale when it was delivered to the client.
	For the ICS Business Unit, the Company utilized vendor-specific objective evidence of selling price (“VSOE”) to allocate revenue to various elements in an arrangement. The Company determined VSOE based on its normal pricing and discounting practices for the product or service when sold separately. In determining VSOE, the Company required that a substantial majority of the selling prices for a product or consulting services fall within a reasonably narrow pricing range, generally evidenced by approximately 80% of such historical standalone transactions falling within plus or minus 20% of the median selling price. For the ICS Business Unit’s managed services, the Company established VSOE through the stated renewal approach. The Company was able to establish VSOE for its product and service offerings except for software. If the Company was not able to establish VSOE for an offering, it attempted to establish fair value by utilizing evidence of selling price (“TPE”), which was established by obtaining evidence from comparable offerings from a peer company. If the Company was unable to establish fair value using VSOE or TPE, then the Company used estimated selling prices (“ESP”) in its allocation of revenue. To determine ESP, the Company applied significant judgment as it weighed a variety of factors, based on the facts and circumstances of the arrangement. These factors included internal costs, gross margin objectives, and existing portfolio pricing and discounting.
	Within discontinued operations, some of the Company’s sales arrangements had multiple deliverables containing software and related software components. Such sale arrangements were subject to the accounting guidance in ASC 985-605, Software Revenue Recognition.
Cost of Revenue before Reimbursed Expenses, Exclusive of Depreciation and Amortization	'
	Cost of Revenue before Reimbursed Expenses, Exclusive of Depreciation and Amortization
	Cost of services primarily consists of labor costs, including salaries, fringe benefits, and incentive compensation, royalties, and other client-related third-party outside services. Cost of services excludes depreciation and amortization.
	If the Company’s estimates indicate that a contract loss will occur, then a loss provision is recorded in the period in which the loss first becomes probable and can be reasonably estimated.
Sales, Marketing and Development	'
	Sales, Marketing and Development
	Sales, marketing and development expenses consist primarily of salaries, incentive compensation, commissions, and employee benefits for business development, account management, marketing, and product development personnel. The personnel costs included in this item are net of any labor costs directly related to the generation of revenue, which are represented in Cost of Services.
General and Administrative	'
	General and Administrative
	General and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries, incentive compensation, and employee benefits for administrative personnel, as well as facilities costs, a provision for uncollectible amounts, and costs for our corporate technology infrastructure and applications.
Severance and Related Costs	'
	Severance and Related Costs
	Severance and related costs includes cost-reduction actions, principally consisting of personnel reductions and an office consolidation. The portion of the accruals that related to employee severance represents contractual severance for identified employees and generally is not subject to a significant revision. The portion of the accruals that related to office space reductions, office closures, and associated contractual lease obligations are based in part on assumptions and estimates of the timing and amount of sublease rentals, which may be affected by overall economic and local market conditions. To the extent estimates of the success of our sublease efforts changed, adjustments increasing or decreasing the related accruals have been recognized.
(Loss) Income Per Common Share	'
	(Loss) Income Per Common Share
	The per common share basic net (loss) income available to common stockholders has been computed by dividing the net (loss) income available to common stockholders for each period presented by the weighted average shares outstanding. The per common share diluted (loss) income available to common stockholders has been computed by dividing the net (loss) income available to common stockholders by the weighted average shares outstanding plus the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents, which is primarily related to Series B Stock, using the “treasury stock” method. In periods in which there was a loss, the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents is not included in the diluted loss per share calculation as it was antidilutive.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments	'
	Fair Value of Financial Instruments
	The carrying values of current assets and liabilities approximated their fair values as of December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012. Fair value is an exit price and establishes a three-tier valuation hierarchy for ranking the quality and reliability of the information used to determine fair values. The first tier, Level 1, uses quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 uses inputs, other than quoted market prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets, which are observable either directly or indirectly. Level 3 uses unobservable inputs in which there are little or no market data, and requires the entity to develop its own assumptions. A financial asset or liability’s classification within the hierarchy is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
Cash and Cash Equivalents	'
	Cash and Cash Equivalents
	The Company considers all highly liquid investments readily convertible into known amounts of cash (with original purchased maturities of three months or less) to be cash equivalents.
Concentration of Credit Risk	'
	Concentration of Credit Risk
	Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to a concentration of credit risk consist of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, and receivables. Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash consist of money market funds and deposits with high credit quality financial institutions. At times, such deposits may be in excess of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insurance limit. Accounts in the United States are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to $250,000. At December 31, 2013, the Company had non-interest bearing cash and interest bearing money market balances in excess of federally insured limits by $12.7 million. The Company’s receivables are derived from billings to clients located primarily in the U.S. and are denominated in U.S. dollars. For fiscal year 2013, there were four clients that accounted for 10% or more of total revenue: Vangent, Inc., Progressive Casualty Insurance Company, Allstate Insurance Company, and United HealthCare Services, Inc., accounted for 21%, 15%, 13%, and 11% of total revenue, respectively. For fiscal year 2012, there were three clients that accounted for 10% or more of total revenue: Vangent, Inc.; Allstate Insurance Company; and Progressive Casualty Insurance Company, which accounted for 19%, 16%, and 13% of total revenue, respectively. For fiscal year 2011, there were three clients that accounted for 10% or more of total revenue: Vangent, Inc.; Allstate Insurance Company; and Health Care Service Corporation, which accounted for 22%, 15%, and 14% of total revenue, respectively. As of December 31, 2013, four clients, United HealthCare Services, Inc., CVS Pharmacy, Inc., Allstate Insurance Company, and The Financial Times Limited accounted for 36%, 19%, 12%, and 11% of total gross accounts receivable, respectively. As of December 31, 2012, four clients, Progressive Casualty Insurance Company, United HealthCare Services, Inc., CVS Caremark Corporation, and Allstate Insurance Company accounted for 24%, 13%, 13%, and 10% of total gross accounts receivable, respectively.
Equipment and Leasehold Improvements	'
	Equipment and Leasehold Improvements
	Computers, software, furniture, and equipment are carried at cost and depreciated on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the lesser of the useful life or the lease term. The useful life for computers and software is three years. For enterprise software applications where a longer useful life is deemed appropriate, five years is used. For furniture and equipment, a useful life of five years is used. Maintenance and repair costs are expensed as incurred. The cost and related accumulated depreciation of assets sold or disposed of are eliminated from the respective accounts and the resulting gain or loss is included in the statements of operations. The carrying value of equipment and leasehold improvements is periodically reviewed to assess recoverability based on future undiscounted cash flows. An impairment loss, if any, would be measured as the excess of the carrying value over the fair value. There was no impairment as of December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012.
	The Company accounts for software developed for internal use in accordance with the guidance provided under ASC Topic 350, which addresses accounting for the costs of computer software developed or obtained for internal use. As such, costs incurred that relate to the planning and post-implementation phases of development are expensed. Costs incurred during the application development stage are capitalized and amortized over the asset’s estimated useful life, which is generally three to five years.
	The Company leases certain equipment using both capital leases and operating leases. Assets leased under capital leases are recorded at the present value of future lease payments and depreciated on a straight line basis. All capital leases are for terms of either twenty-four, thirty or thirty-six months.
Goodwill	'
	Goodwill
	Goodwill is tested annually for impairment or more frequently if an event or circumstance indicates that an impairment loss may have been incurred. In performing our annual impairment test, we first perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value, including goodwill. If it is concluded that this is the case for one or more reporting units, we perform a detailed quantitative assessment using a two-step test approach. In the first step, the fair value of each reporting unit is compared with its carrying value. If the fair value exceeds the carrying value, then goodwill is not impaired and no further testing is performed. The second step is performed if the carrying value exceeds the fair value. The implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill must be determined and compared to the carrying value of the goodwill. If the carrying value of a reporting unit’s goodwill exceeds its implied fair value, then an impairment loss equal to the difference will be recorded. A detailed determination of the fair value of a reporting unit may be carried forward from one year to the next if specific criteria have been met. The Company currently operates in a single business segment or reporting unit.
	In 2013, after completing our annual qualitative review, we concluded that it was not more likely than not that the carrying value of our reporting unit exceeded its fair value. Accordingly, we concluded that further quantitative analysis and testing was not required, and no goodwill impairment charge was required.
	There has been no impairment identified as a result of the annual reviews of goodwill as of December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012. The carrying value of goodwill was $1.0 million as of December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012.
Intangible Assets	'
	Intangible Assets
	Intangible assets reflect costs related to patent and trademark applications, Marketing Managed Services customer relationships acquired in 2004, and the 2003 purchase of a license for certain intellectual property. Patent and trademark applications are amortized over 120 months. The other intangible assets are fully amortized. There was an impairment charge of less than $0.1 million for fiscal year 2013 and $0.1 million during fiscal year 2012.
		December 31,			December 31,
		2013			2012
	Gross intangible assets	$	3.2		$	2.9
	Accumulated amortization of intangible assets		(2.8	)		(2.7	)
	Total	$	0.4		$	0.2
Other Long-Term Assets	'
	Other Long-Term Assets
	Other long-term assets primarily consist of deferred costs and prepaid commissions related to Behavioral Analytics. These costs are recognized over the terms of the respective contracts, generally three to five years. Costs included in long-term assets will be recognized over the remaining term of the contracts beyond the first twelve months.
Income Taxes	'
	Income Taxes
	The Company has recorded income tax valuation allowances on our net deferred tax assets to account for the unpredictability surrounding the timing of realization of our U.S. and non-U.S. net deferred tax assets due to uncertain economic conditions. The valuation allowances may be reversed at a point in time when management determines realization of these tax assets has become more likely than not, based on a return to predictable levels of profitability.
	The Company uses an asset and liability approach for financial accounting and reporting of income taxes. Deferred income taxes are provided when tax laws and financial accounting standards differ with respect to the amount of income for the year, the basis of assets and liabilities and for tax loss carryforwards. The Company does not provide U.S. deferred income taxes on earnings of U.S. or foreign subsidiaries, which are expected to be indefinitely reinvested.
	The Company may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position should be measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. Significant judgment is used to determine the likelihood of the benefit. There is additional guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties on income taxes, accounting in interim periods, and disclosure requirements.
	Intraperiod tax allocation requires that the provision for income taxes be allocated between continuing operations and other categories of earnings (such as discontinued operations or other comprehensive loss) for each tax jurisdiction. In periods in which there is a year-to-date pre-tax loss from continuing operations and pre-tax income in other categories of earnings, the tax provision is first allocated to the other categories of earnings. A related tax benefit is then recorded in continuing operations. While intraperiod tax allocation in general does not change the overall tax provision, it does affect the amount of tax provision included in each category.
Short-Term Debt	'
	Short-Term Debt
	On August 19, 2013, the Company, together with its wholly-owned subsidiaries Mattersight Europe Holding Corporation and Mattersight International Holding, Inc., as co-borrowers, entered into a Loan and Security Agreement with Partners for Growth IV, L.P. (“PfG”) (the “Credit Facility”). The Credit Facility is subordinated to the Company’s existing $10.0 million credit facility with Silicon Valley Bank described below and, in combination therewith, increases the Company’s aggregate lines of credit to $15.0 million. The Credit Facility provides for (a) a $3.0 million revolving line of credit maturing in 2016 (the “Tranche A Facility”) and (b) a $2.0 million convertible term loan (the “Tranche B Facility”), which, if advanced, would be funded in two tranches of $1.0 million, each evidenced by a convertible promissory note (each, a “Convertible Note”) maturing five years following the issuance thereof. The Company has not drawn on the Credit Facility as of December 31, 2013.
	On May 30, 2013, the Company, together with its wholly-owned subsidiaries Mattersight Europe Holding Corporation and Mattersight International Holding, Inc., as co-borrowers, entered into an Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement with Silicon Valley Bank (the “Amended and Restated Credit Facility”). The Amended and Restated Credit Facility (i) extends the maturity date of the Company’s $10.0 million revolving line with Silicon Valley Bank to 2015; (ii) modifies the borrowing base from one based upon the Company’s unrestricted cash to one based upon the Company’s available accounts receivable, which is approximately 80% of eligible accounts receivable; (iii) provides for a varying interest rate based on the Company’s ratio of unrestricted cash to debt; and (iv) requires the Company to maintain a tangible net worth of at least $3.0 million dollars. The terms and conditions of the Amended and Restated Credit Facility are otherwise substantially the same as those contained in the Loan and Security Agreement, dated June 29, 2012, by and between the Company, the subsidiary co-borrowers thereto, and Silicon Valley Bank. Through the maturity date, the Company is obligated to pay a fee equal to one-eighth of one percent (0.125%) per annum of the average unused portion of the Amended and Restated Credit Facility, payable quarterly in arrears. For more information relating to the terms of the Loan and Security Agreement with the “Credit Facility” and the Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement with the “Amended and Restated Credit Facility”, see Note Ten “Short-Term Debt” of the “Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements” included in Part II Item 8 of this Form 10-K.
Unearned Revenue	'
	Unearned Revenue
	Payments received for Managed services contracts in excess of the amount of revenue recognized for these contracts are recorded as unearned revenue until revenue recognition criteria are met.
Stockholders' Equity	'
	Stockholders’ Equity
	Stockholders’ equity includes Common Stock issued, additional paid-in capital, accumulated deficit, treasury stock, and accumulated other comprehensive loss. The 1.6 million shares of Series B Stock are not classified as permanent equity or a liability in the accompanying balance sheets. These shares of Series B Stock are conditionally redeemable and do not meet the definition of a mandatorily redeemable financial instrument. The holders of Series B Stock have the ability to initiate a redemption upon the occurrence of certain events that are considered outside the Company’s control.
Foreign Currency Translation	'
	Foreign Currency Translation
	The functional currencies for the Company’s foreign subsidiaries are their local currencies. All assets and liabilities of foreign subsidiaries are translated to U.S. dollars at end of period exchange rates. The resulting translation adjustments are recorded as a component of stockholders’ equity and comprehensive income (loss). Income and expense items are translated at average exchange rates prevailing during the period. Foreign currency net losses and gains were a $6 thousand gain for fiscal year 2013, losses of $1 thousand for fiscal year 2012, and $350 thousand for fiscal year 2011, respectively. These foreign currency transactions from subsidiaries are included in interest and other income within the consolidated statements of operations.
Stock-Based Compensation	'
	Stock-Based Compensation
	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 vesting period. Determining fair value of stock-based awards at the grant date requires certain assumptions. The Company uses historical information as the primary basis for the selection of expected life, expected volatility, expected dividend yield assumptions, and anticipated forfeiture rates. The risk-free interest rate is selected based on the yields from U.S. Treasury Strips with a remaining term equal to the expected term of the options being valued.
Stock Warrants	'
	Stock Warrants
	In accordance with ASC 480-10 (“Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity”), the Company classified certain warrants to purchase Common Stock that do not meet the requirements for classification as equity, as liabilities. Such liabilities are initially recorded at fair value with subsequent changes in fair value recorded as a component of gain or loss on warrant liability on the consolidated statements of operations in each reporting period. If these warrants subsequently meet the requirements of equity classification, the Company reclassifies the fair value to equity. Fair value of the warrants was measured using a Monte Carlo option pricing model and in applying this model certain assumptions were used. See Note Twenty, “Stock Warrants”.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements	'
	Recent Accounting Pronouncements
	In July 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU No. 2013-11, Income Taxes (Topic 740) – Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists. ASU 2013-11 provides guidance on the financial statement presentation of an unrecognized tax benefit when a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward exists. An unrecognized tax benefit should be presented in the financial statements as a reduction to a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward with certain exceptions, in which case such an unrecognized tax benefit should be presented in the financial statements as a liability. The amendments in this ASU are effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2013. The adoption of this ASU is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
