Statements which are not historical reflect our current expectations and projections about our future results, performance, liquidity, financial condition, prospects and opportunities and are based upon information currently available to us and our management and their interpretation of what is believed to be significant factors affecting our business, including many assumptions regarding future events. Such forward-looking statements include statements regarding, among other things:
| · | our ability to produce, market and generate sales of our DarioTM Diabetes Management Solution; |
| · | our ability to develop and introduce new products; |
| · | our ability to obtain regulatory approvals for DarioTM; |
| · | our ability to obtain intellectual property protection for our inventions; |
| · | our ability to establish and maintain our brand; |
| · | our ability to attract and retain key members of our management team; |
| · | our future financing plans; |
| · | our anticipated needs for working capital; |
| · | the anticipated trends in our industry; |
| · | our ability to expand operational capabilities; |
| · | competition existing today or that will likely arise in the future; and |
| · | our ability to establish a market for our common stock. |
Forward-looking statements, which involve assumptions and describe our future plans, strategies, and expectations, are generally identifiable by use of the words “may,” “should,” “would,” “could,” “scheduled,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “believe,” “intend,” “seek,” or “project” or the negative of these words or other variations on these words or comparable terminology. Actual results, performance, liquidity, financial condition and results of operations, prospects and opportunities could differ materially and perhaps substantially from those expressed in, or implied by, these forward-looking statements as a result of various risks, uncertainties and other factors. These statements may be found under the section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013 (filed on March 4, 2014) entitled “Risk Factors” as well as in our other public filings.
In light of these risks and uncertainties, and especially given the pre-revenue, start-up nature of our business, there can be no assurance that the forward-looking statements contained herein will in fact occur.

| (Development stage Company) |
| NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |
| U.S. dollars in thousands (except stock and stock data) |
| NOTE 1:- | GENERAL |
| a. | LabStyle Innovations Corp. (the “Company”) was incorporated in Delaware and commenced operations on August 11, 2011. The Company is a mobile health (mHealth) company developing and commercializing patent-pending technologies to provide consumers with laboratory-testing capabilities using smart phones and other mobile devices. The Company’s initial product, Dario™, is a mobile, cloud-based, diabetes management solution which includes a pocket-sized blood glucose monitoring device that, utilizing proprietary software, integrates with smart phones and other mobile devices to offer users the ability to record, save, track, analyze, manage and share diabetes related information. The Company has not generated revenues to date; accordingly, the Company is considered to be in the development stage as defined in ASC No. 915, “Development stage entities”. |
The Company has a wholly owned subsidiary, LabStyle Innovation Ltd. (“Ltd.”), incorporated and located in Israel, which commenced operations on September 14, 2011. Its principal business activity is to hold the Company’s intellectual property and to perform research and development, manufacturing, marketing and other business activities.
| b. | On January 7, 2014, the Company announced the filing of aPremarket Notification Application (known as a510(k) application) for the Dario™ blood glucose monitoring system with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”) to notify the FDA of the Company’s intention to market the Dario™ in the United States. The Company is planning for other regulatory filings in other jurisdictions. |
In March 2014, the Company commenced a soft launch of Dario™. The Company’s first shipments to distributers commenced in late March 2014 in selected jurisdictions.
| c. | On March 20, 2014, the Company filed a registration statement (the “Third Registration Statement”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) covering the public resale of up to 10,139,612 shares of common stock of the Company (the “Common Stock”) (including up to 6,242,440 shares of Common Stock underlying warrants) previously issued or which may potentially be issued pursuant to certain contractual reset rights held by the investors inthe February 2014 Private Placement, as defined below (see Note 4b and 5b). |
| d. | During the three month period ended March 31, 2014, the Company incurred operating losses and negative cash flows from operating activities amounting to $2,668 and $2,337, respectively. The Company will be required to obtain additional capital resources to maintain its commercialization, research and development activities. The Company is addressing its liquidity needs by continuing to seek additional funding from public and/or private sources and by commencing its initial commercial sales. There are no assurances, however, that the Company will be able to obtain an adequate level of financing or commence an adequate level of initial commercial sales needed for the long-term development and commercialization of its product. |

| NOTE 1:- | GENERAL (Cont.) |
| According to management estimates, the Company has sufficient liquidity resources to continue its planned activity into October 2014. Nevertheless, to the extent required, management believes it could execute certain costs reduction measures which could enable the Company to continue to operate for up to an additional three months, although no assurances can be given that management would be able to execute on this plan if required. |
These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
| NOTE 2:- | SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
The significant accounting policies applied in the annual financial statements of the Company as disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2013 are applied consistently in these financial statements.
| NOTE 3:- | UNAUDITED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |
The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2014, have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements include all adjustments of a normal recurring nature necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s consolidated financial position as of March 31, 2014, and the Company’s consolidated results of operations and the Company’s consolidated cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2014. Results for the three months ended March 31, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 2014.

| NOTE 4:- | FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS |
ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” (“ASC 820”), defines fair value as the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities required to be recorded at fair value, the Company considers the principal or most advantageous market in which it would transact and considers assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, such as inherent risk, transfer restrictions and risk of nonperformance.
ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy that requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. ASC 820 establishes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
| Level 1 - | quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; |
| Level 2 - | inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities; or |
| Level 3 - | unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. |
| a. | On March 30, 2012, the Company consummated the final closing of a private placement transaction (the “2011-2012 Private Placement”) pursuant to which the investors purchased an aggregate of 2,461,000 shares of Common Stock and warrants to purchase 2,461,000 shares of Common Stock at the exercise price of $1.50 for total consideration of $2,461. The Company has registered the investors’ shares of Common Stock, and shares of Common Stock underlying the warrants, issued in the 2011-2012 Private Placement for public resale in a registration statement (the “Initial Registration Statement”) declared effective by the SEC on February 14, 2013. |

| NOTE 4:- | FAIR VALUE MEASURMENTS (Cont.) |
The placement agent for the 2011-2012 Private Placement and its permitted designees were granted warrants to purchase an aggregate of (i) 482,200 shares of Common Stock at the exercise price of $1.00 per share and (ii) 482,200 shares of Common Stock at the exercise price of $1.50 per share. Each of the aforementioned warrants issued in the 2011-2012 Private Placement (including those warrants issued to the placement agent) contained weighted average anti-dilution protection. Subsequent to the issuance of the 2011-2012 Private Placement warrants, the $1.50 exercise price for both the warrants issued to the investors and placement agent were adjusted to approximately $1.30 per share due to a certain anti-dilutive issuance and, accordingly, additional warrants to purchase an aggregate of 371,017 and 72,455 shares of Common Stock were granted to such investors and the placement agent and its designees, respectively.
| The Company accounts for such warrants (each of which include weighted average anti-dilution protection) as a liability according to the provisions of ASC 815-40, “Derivatives and Hedging - Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity”. The Company measures the warrants at fair value by using Binomial option-pricing model in each reporting period until the warrants are exercised or expired, with changes in the fair values being recognized in the Company’s statement of comprehensive loss as financial income or expense. |
In estimating the warrants’ fair value, the Company used the following assumptions:
Investor warrants:
| March 31, 2014 | December 31, 2013 | |||||||
| Risk-free interest rate (1) | 0.71 | % | 0.70 | % | ||||

The warrants issued to the investors and placement agent in the February 2014 Private Placement are subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of certain events, including certain non-standard anti-dilution protection provisions. In addition, upon certain changes in control of the Company, the holder of a warrant can elect to receive, subject to certain limitations and assumptions, cash equal to the Black-Scholes value of the outstanding warrants.
The warrants issued to the investors and placement agent in the February 2014 Private Placement were exercisable immediately upon issuance and may be exercised at any time prior to the fifth (5th) anniversary of the date that the warrant shares are registered for resale with the SEC or are able to be sold without restriction under Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act).
| The Company accounts for such warrants (each of which includes weighted average anti-dilution protection) as a liability according to the provisions of ASC 815-40, “Derivatives and Hedging - Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity”. The Company measures the warrants at fair value by using Binomial option-pricing model in each reporting period until they are exercised or expired, with changes in the fair values being recognized in the Company’s statement of comprehensive loss as financial income or expense. |
In estimating the warrants’ fair value, the Company used the following assumptions:

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following financial data in this narrative are expressed in thousands, except for stock and stock data.
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013.
This discussion contains certain forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results and the timing of certain events could differ materially from those discussed in these forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors, including, but not limited to, those set forth herein and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report and in our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. See “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward Looking Statements.”
Overview and Recent Events
We were formed in August 2011 as a Delaware corporation. We are a mobile health (mHealth) company developing and commercializing patent-pending technology providing consumers with laboratory-testing capabilities using smart phones and other mobile devices.
Our initial product is DarioTM, a mobile, cloud-based, diabetes management solution which includes novel software applications combined with a stylish, “all-in-one”, pocket-sized, blood glucose monitoring device (which we call our Personalized Smart Meter) that will compete in the estimated $12 billion dollar worldwide market for patient self-monitoring of blood glucose (which we refer to as SMBG) products. Dario™ is a comprehensive, patent-pending system that combines a cutting edge software application and cloud-based data services with a novel all-in-one Personalized Smart Meter consisting of a lancet (to obtain a blood sample), a device-specific disposable test strip cartridge and a smartphone-driven glucose reader adaptor.
On September 23, 2013, we announced our receipt of CE Mark certification to market Dario™. The receipt of the CE Mark allows Dario™ to be marketed and sold in 32 countries across Europe as well as in certain other countries worldwide. On March 5, 2014, MDSS, our European Authorized Representative, completed the registration of the Dario™ Personalized Smart Meter with the German Authority as required by Article 10 of Directive 98/79/EC on in vitro diagnostic medical devices. We are currently pursing regulatory approval for Dario™ in the United States and are expecting a response from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration on our 510(k) application later in 2014.
In January 2014, the Dario™ test strips (manufactured for us by a third party supplier) were evaluated by an independent German research institution. The aim of this study was to collect measurement data from capillary blood with defined distribution of glucose concentrations in order to perform system accuracy evaluation according to ISO 15197:2013, the current international standard requirements for SMBG systems. The results of this study showed that the Dario™ strips are well within the limits for system accuracy defined by ISO 15197:2013 in that 100% of results fell within zones A and B of the Consensus Error Grid for all systems, which means that the system accuracy requirements of the ISO 15197:2013 have been met.
| 1 |
In December 2013, we began offering free downloads of the DarioTM software application in selected jurisdictions, and in March 2014, we commenced our global multi-market soft launch of the DarioTM Personalized Smart Meter in selected jurisdictions. The first shipments were sent to distributers in late March 2014.
In April 2014, we announced the receipt of reimbursement coverage for the use of the Dario™ Personalized Smart Meter in Italy, making 600,000 Italians eligible for reimbursement coverage. We are pursuing reimbursement coverage in other jurisdictions.
We are presently pursuing patent applications in multiple jurisdictions covering the specific processes related to blood glucose level measurement as well as more general methods of rapid tests of body fluids using mobile devices and cloud-based services. On May 1, 2014 we announced the receipt of a U.S. Notice of Allowance for a key patent relating tohow the Dario™ blood glucose monitor draws power from and transmits data to a smart phone via the audio jack port. We believe this represents a critical intellectual property recognition and a significant initial validation of our intellectual property efforts.
Critical Accounting Policies
Our financial statements are prepared using the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (or US GAAP). Our fiscal year ends December 31.
This Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations discuss our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with US GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires making estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported revenues and expenses for the reporting periods. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate such estimates and judgments. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other factors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ (perhaps significantly) from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
While all the accounting policies impact the financial statements, certain policies may be viewed to be critical. Our management believes that the accounting policies which involve more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statement include warrants liability, stock-based compensation, capitalization of costs and useful lives of assets:
Warrant liability
The fair value of the liability for certain warrants issued to investors and our previous placement agents in connection with our financings to date was calculated using the Binomial model. We accounted for these warrants according to the provisions of ASC 815, “Derivatives and Hedging - Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity” and, based on the anti-dilution protections contained in the warrants, we classified them as liabilities, measured at fair value each reporting period until they will be exercised or expired, with changes in the fair values being recognized in our statement of comprehensive loss as financial income or expense. Exercised warrants are being measured at fair value as of their exercise date and subsequently reclassified from liability to additional paid in capital. Our net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 included finance expenses (income) in the amount of ($142) and $2,136, respectively, with connection to the above-mentioned warrants.
| 2 |
Stock-Based Compensation
We account for stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718 “Compensation- stock compensation” which requires companies to estimate the fair value of equity-based payment awards on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model.
The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as an expense over the requisite service periods in our consolidated income statements.
We recognize compensation expenses for the value of awards granted based on the straight line method over the requisite service period of each of the awards, net of estimated forfeitures. ASC 718 requires forfeitures to be estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. The term “forfeitures” is distinct from “cancellations” or “expirations” and represents only the unvested portion of the surrendered option. Ultimately, the actual expenses recognized over the vesting period will only be for those shares that vest.
We selected the Black-Scholes option pricing model as the most appropriate fair value method for stock-option awards based on the market value of the underlying shares at the date of grant. This option-pricing model requires a number of assumptions, of which the most significant are the expected stock price volatility and the expected option term. Expected volatility was calculated based upon historical volatilities of similar entities in the related sector index. The expected option term represents the period that the Company’s stock options are expected to be outstanding and is determined based on the simplified method until sufficient historical exercise data will support using expected life assumptions. The risk-free interest rate is based on the yield from U.S. treasury bonds with an equivalent term. The Company has historically not paid dividends and has no foreseeable plans to pay dividends.
Our net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2014 includes stock-based compensation costs, with respect to options granted to employees and directors of our company, in the amount of $394 as compared to $1,277 for the three months period ended March 31, 2013. The decrease from 2014 to 2013 is mainly due to the granting of options to our non-employee directors during March 2013.
We apply ASC 718 and ASC 505-50 “Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees”, with respect to options and warrants issued to non-employees. ASC 718 requires the use of option valuation models to measure the fair value of the options and warrants at the measurement date.
In connection with options granted to non-employees for services received for the three month period ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, and our determination of the fair value of our common shares, we have recorded stock-based compensation expense of $115 and $42, respectively, which represent the fair value of non-employee options grants.
Production Equipment
Capitalization of Costs. We capitalize direct incremental costs related to our production equipment. We cease construction cost capitalization relating to our production equipment once it is ready for its intended use and held available for occupancy. All renovations and betterments that extend the economic useful lives of assets and / or improve the performance of the production equipment are capitalized.
Useful Lives of Assets. We are required to make subjective assessments as to the useful lives of our production equipment for purposes of determining the amount of depreciation to record on an annual basis with respect to our construction of the production equipment. These assessments have a direct impact on our net income (loss). Tooling and production equipment which are part of our production equipment are usually depreciated on a straight-line basis over a period of up to five years, except any renovations and betterments which are depreciated over the remaining life of the production equipment.
| 3 |
Extended Transition Period for “Emerging Growth Companies.” We have elected to use the extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards under Section 102(b)(1) of the Jumpstart Our Business Act of 2012 (known as the JOBS Act). This election allows us to delay the adoption of new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until those standards apply to private companies. As a result of this election, our financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with public company effective dates. Consequently, our financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with public company effective dates. Because our financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with public company effective dates, investors may have difficulty evaluating or comparing our business, performance or prospects in comparison to other public companies, which may have a negative impact on the value and liquidity of our common stock.
Results of Operations
Three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013
Revenues
We recorded no commercial revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013.
Cost of Revenues
For the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, we did not generate any cost of revenues from operations.
Research and Development Expenses
Our research and development expenses during the three months ended March 31, 2014 were $1,089 compared with $675 in the three months ended March 31, 2013. This increase was mainly due to the recruitment of new employees for research and development activities.
Research and development expenses consist mainly of payroll expenses to employees involved in research and development activities, expenses related to our Dario™ software application and related SMBG device, subcontracting, labor contractors and engineering expenses, depreciation and maintenance fees related to equipment and software tools used in research and development, and facilities expenses associated with and allocated to research and development activities.
Marketing and Pre-Production Costs
Our marketing and pre-production costs increased by $228 to $725 for the three months ended March 31, 2014 compared to $497 for the three months ended March 31, 2013. This increase was mainly due to the expansion of the marketing department as well as further pre-production costs in anticipation of our soft launch on March 2014.
| 4 |
Marketing and pre-production costs consist mainly of payroll expenses of marketing and pre-production employees, travel expenses related to such employees, trade show expenses, depreciation of our production equipment and facilities expenses associated with and allocated to marketing and pre-production.
General and Administrative Expenses
Our general and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2014 were $854 compared to $1,904 in the three months ended March 31, 2013. The decrease was largely attributable to a decrease in stock-based compensation charges mainly due to the grant of options to non-employee directors during March 2013 as well as costs related to the issuance of common stock and warrants to a former service provider.
Finance Expenses, net
Our finance expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2014 were $316 compared to $2,151 in the three months ended March 31, 2013. These changes were derived mainly from a revaluation of certain warrants granted to investors and service providers that were recorded as a liability and presented at fair value for each reporting period and from issuance costs related to such warrants to such investors and service providers.
Net Loss
Net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2014 was $2,984 compared to $5,227 in the three months ended March 31, 2013.
Plan of Operation
We commenced a commercial launch of the free Dario™ app in selected jurisdictions in late 2013 and commenced an initial soft launch of the full Dario™ solution (including the software and the Personalized Smart Meter) in selected jurisdictions in March 2014 with the goal of collecting customer feedback to refine our longer-term roll-out strategy. Over time, we expect to add additional features and functionality in making Dario™ the new standard of care in diabetes data management.
Through our Israeli subsidiary, LabStyle Innovation Ltd., our plan of operations is to continue the development of our software and hardware offerings and related technology.
For the remainder of 2014, we expect to continue with the soft launch of Dario™, expanding the soft launch to other jurisdictions, and to prepare for our longer-term roll-out of Dario™. In support of these goals, we will utilize our funds for the following activities:
| · | ramp up of mass production, marketing and distribution and sales efforts related to Dario™ software, Personalized Smart Meters and test strips; |
| · | continued product development and related activities (including costs associated with application development and data storage capabilities as well as any necessary design modifications to the various elements of the Dario™ solution); |
| · | continued work on registration of our patents worldwide; |
| 5 |
| · | regulatory matters (including work on the regulatory approval of Dario™ in the U.S.); |
| · | professional fees associated with being a publicly reporting company; and |
| · | general and administrative matters. |
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Since our inception, we have generated significant losses and expect to continue to generate losses for the foreseeable future. There is no assurances that we will be able to obtain an adequate level of financing needed for our near term requirements or the long-term development and commercialization of our products. These conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a “going concern”.
As of March 31, 2014 we had $3,812 in cash and cash equivalents. During the first quarter of 2014, we raised net proceeds in an aggregate of approximately $4,002 through a private placement transaction and the exercise of outstanding warrants. We may receive funds from the exercise of other outstanding warrants in the future, but there is a risk that such warrants will not be exercised.
According to our management’s estimates, based on our budget and the initial launch of our commercial sales as well as the reduction of our operating expenses during the first three months of 2014 compare to the three months ended December 31, 2013 of $983, we believe that we will have sufficient resources to continue our activity at least into October 2014. This includes a small amount of anticipated initial revenues from sales of Dario™ through distribution partners. Nevertheless, to the extent required, management believes it could execute certain costs reduction measures which could enable us to continue to operate for up to an additional three months, although no assurances can be given that management would be able to execute on this plan if required. However, if we are not unable to scale up our commercial launch Dario™ or meet our commercial sales targets (or if we are unable to generate any revenue at all), and if we are unable to obtain additional capital resources, we may be unable to continue activities beyond that time, absent a material alternations in our business plans.
Readers are advised that available resources may be consumed more rapidly than currently anticipated, resulting in the need for additional funding sooner than expected. Should this occur during 2014, we will need to seek additional capital to fund (i) our manufacturing, marketing, distribution and other commercial efforts with Dario™, (ii) our efforts to obtain regulatory approvals necessary to be able to commercially launch Dario™ in new jurisdictions, and (iii) general working capital.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As of the end of the period covered by this Report, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer (the “Certifying Officers”), conducted evaluations of our disclosure controls and procedures. As defined under Sections 13a – 15(e) and 15d – 15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), the term “disclosure controls and procedures” means controls and other procedures of an issuer that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Disclosure controls and procedures include without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer’s management, including the Certifying Officers, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
Based on their evaluation, the Certifying Officers concluded that, as of March 31, 2014, our disclosure controls and procedures were designed at a reasonable assurance level and were therefore effective in providing reasonable assurance that information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the Certifying Officers, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in internal control over financial reporting.
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2014 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Limitations on the Effectiveness of Internal Controls
Readers are cautioned that our management does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting will necessarily prevent all fraud and material error. An internal control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within our control have been detected. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any control design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
