Summary of Significant Accounting Policies	'
	Note 1 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
	The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared by PAR Technology Corporation (the “Company” or “PAR”) in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial statements and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X pertaining to interim financial statements.  Accordingly, these interim financial statements do not include all information and footnotes required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.  In the opinion of the Company, such unaudited statements include all adjustments (which comprise only normal recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of the results for such periods.  The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for any future period.  The consolidated financial statements and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes for the year ended December 31, 2012 included in the Company’s December 31, 2012 Annual Report to the Securities and Exchange Commission on Form 10-K.
	The preparation of consolidated financial statements requires management of the Company to make a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the period.  Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include:  the carrying amount of property, plant and equipment, identifiable intangible assets and goodwill, equity based compensation, and valuation allowances for receivables, inventories and deferred income taxes.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.
	The current economic conditions and the continued financial volatility in the U.S. and in many other countries in which the Company operates could contribute to decreased consumer confidence and continued economic uncertainty which may adversely impact the Company’s operating performance.  The Company continues to see strength in the markets which it serves; the continued instability could have an impact on purchases of the Company’s products, which could result in a reduction of sales, operating income and cash flows.  A decline in these results could have a material adverse impact on the underlying estimates used in deriving the fair value of the Company’s reporting units used in support of its annual goodwill impairment test.  These conditions may result in an impairment charge in future periods.
	Certain amounts for prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current period classification.
	During the first quarter of fiscal year 2012, the Company sold substantially all of the assets of its Logistics Management business, PAR Logistics Management Systems Corporation (LMS) to ORBCOMM Inc., including but not limited to accounts receivable, inventory, equipment, intellectual property, and customer contracts.  The transaction closed on January 12, 2012.   The results of operations of LMS for three and nine months ended September 2013 and 2012 have been recorded as discontinued operations in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 205-20, Presentation of Financial Statements – Discontinued Operations.

Identifiable intangible assets	'
	Note 4 — Identifiable intangible assets
	The Company capitalizes certain costs related to the development of computer software sold by its Hospitality segment. Software development costs incurred prior to establishing technological feasibility are charged to operations and included in research and development costs in the period the costs are incurred.  Software development costs incurred after establishing technological feasibility (as defined within ASC 985-20) are capitalized and amortized on a product-by-product basis when the product is available for general release to customers.  Software costs capitalized during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 were $1,590,000 and $3,216,000, respectively.  Software costs capitalized during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 were $871,000 and $2,493,000, respectively.
	Annual amortization, charged to cost of sales when the product is available for general release to customers, is computed using the greater of (a) the straight-line method over the remaining estimated economic life of the product, generally three to seven years or (b) the ratio that current gross revenues for a product bear to the total of current and anticipated future gross revenues for that product. Amortization of capitalized software costs for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 was $402,000 and $894,000, respectively.  Amortization for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 was $402,000 and $1,166,000, respectively.

Stock Based Compensation	'
	Note 5 — Stock Based Compensation
	The Company applies the fair value recognition provisions of ASC Topic 718 Stock-Based Compensation.  The Company recorded stock based compensation expense of $197,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and a net benefit of $85,000 for the nine months ended.  The amount recorded for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 was recorded net of benefits of $384,000, as the result of forfeitures of unvested stock awards prior to the completion of the requisite service period. Total stock-based compensation expense included within operating expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 was $135,000 and $534,000, respectively.  At September 30, 2013, the unrecognized compensation expense related to non-vested equity awards was $730,000 (net of estimated forfeitures), which is expected to be recognized as compensation expense in fiscal years 2013 through 2017.
	During 2013, the Company has granted a total of 291,000 equity awards as approved by the Company’s Compensation Committee of its Board of Directors to various employees of the Company under the 2005 Equity Incentive Plan.  All of the awards granted are time vested over specific service periods as defined in the agreements.
	During 2012, the Company’s issued approximately 183,000 restricted stock awards to various employees at a per share price of $0.02.  The awards were approved by the Compensation Committee of its Board of Directors under the 2005 Equity Incentive Plan.  Included in the shares granted are 121,000 performance based restricted stock which vest upon the achievement of financial goals from fiscal years 2012 through 2014.  These grant agreements expire if the related performance conditions are not met by December 31, 2014.  The Company has not recognized any compensation expense associated with these performance based awards as the achievement of the performance target was not deemed probable during the current period.

Earnings per share	'
	Note 6 — Earnings per share
	Earnings per share are calculated in accordance with ASC Topic 260, which specifies the computation, presentation and disclosure requirements for earnings per share (EPS).  It requires the presentation of basic and diluted EPS.  Basic EPS excludes all dilution and is based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.  Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that would occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock.
	For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 there was 418,000 and 530,000 respectively, anti-dilutive stock options outstanding.  For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, there were 306,000 and 659,000, respectively, anti-dilutive stock options outstanding.
	The following is a reconciliation of the weighted average shares outstanding for the basic and diluted EPS computations (in thousands, except per share data):
