FORM 10-Q
Item 1. | Interim financial statements and basis of presentation |
1. | Nature of business |
The financial information contained herein should be read in conjunction with the Company's consolidated audited financial statements and notes thereto included in its Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2007.
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Communication Intelligence Corporation and its subsidiary (the “Company” or “CIC”) have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for complete consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of management, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this quarterly report reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) that the Company considers necessary for a fair presentation of its financial position at the dates presented and the Company’s results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. The Company’s interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the entire year.
The Company's core technologies are classified into two broad categories: "transaction and communication enabling technologies" and "natural input technologies". These technologies include multi-modal electronic signature, handwritten biometric signature verification, cryptography (Sign-it, iSign, and SignatureOne) and multilingual handwriting recognition software (Jot). The Company reports results in one segment, handwriting recognition.
The Company's transaction and communication enabling technologies are designed to provide a cost-effective means for securing electronic transactions, providing network and device access control and enabling workflow automation of traditional paper form processing. The Company believes that these technologies offer more efficient methods for conducting electronic transactions while providing more functional user authentication and heightened data security. The Company's transaction and communication enabling technologies have been fundamental to its development of software for multi-modal electronic signatures, handwritten biometric signature verification, and data security.
The Company’s natural input technologies are designed to allow users to interact with a computer or handheld device by using an electronic pen or stylus as the primary input device. CIC's natural input offering includes multilingual handwriting recognition software for such devices as electronic organizers, pagers and smart cellular phones that do not have a keyboard. For such devices, handwriting recognition offers the most viable solutions for performing text entry and editing.
Going Concern
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. Except for 2004, the Company has incurred significant losses since its inception and, at September 30, 2008, the Company’s accumulated deficit was approximately $94,000. At September 30, 2008, the Company had working capital of $933, including cash and cash equivalents of $1,276. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company has primarily funded losses through the sale of debt and equity securities.
In June 2008, the Company raised additional funds through a debt and equity financing and also converted short-term notes payable to equity (see notes 4 and 5). Management believes these transactions along with planed operations, will provide adequate capital recourses for at least the next twelve months. However, there can be no assurance that these transactions will provide the Company with adequate capital resources to fund planned operations or that any additional funds will be available to the Company when needed or if

Item 1. | Interim financial statements and basis of presentation |

available, will be available on favorable terms or in amounts required by the Company. If the Company is unable to obtain adequate capital resources to fund operations, it may be required to delay, scale back or eliminate some or all of its operations, which may have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, results of operations and ability to operate as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Fair value of financial instruments
The carrying amounts of the Company's financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, short-term debt and long-term debt approximate fair value due to their relatively short maturities.
2. Accounts receivable and revenue concentration
As of September 30, 2008 three customers in the aggregate accounted for 67% of net accounts receivable: eCom Asia Pacific, Ltd. (12%), Travelers Insurance Company (36%), and Software House International (19%). As of December 31, 2007 four customers in the aggregate accounted for 92% of accounts receivable: Access Systems Americas, Inc, formerly PalmSource, (28%), eCom Asia Pacific, Ltd (22%), Tennessee Valley Authority (32%) and Sony Ericsson (10%).
Two customers in the aggregate accounted for 60% of total revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2008: Altria Client Services (21%) and Travelers Insurance Company (39%). For the three months ended September 30, 2007, four customers in the aggregate accounted for 57% of total revenues: LSI Title Company (11%), Wells Fargo Bank, NA (12%), American General Life (14%) and Access Systems Americas, Inc., (20%).
Three customers in the aggregate accounted for 45% of total revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2008: Altria Client Services (10%), Access Systems Americas, Inc. (11%) and Travelers Insurance Company (24%). Two customers in the aggregate accounted for 44% of total revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2007: Wells Fargo Bank, NA (12%), and Access Systems Americas, Inc., formerly PalmSource (32%).
3. | Patents |
The Company performs intangible asset impairment analyses at least annually in accordance with the guidance in Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets” ("SFAS 142") and Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long Lived Assets” ("SFAS 144"). The Company follows the guidance of SFAS 144 in response to changes in industry and market conditions that affect its patents. The Company then determines if an impairment of its assets has occurred. The Company periodically reassesses the lives of its patents and tests for impairment in order to determine whether the book value of each patent exceeds the fair value of each patent. Fair value is determined by estimating future cash flows from the products that are and will be protected by the patents and considering the additional factors listed in Critical Accounting Policies in the Company’s Annual Report.
Management completed an analysis of its patents as of December 31, 2007. Based on that analysis, the Company concluded that no impairment of the carrying value of the patents existed. The Company believes that no events or circumstances occurred or changed during the nine months ended September 30, 2008, and therefore concluded that no impairment in the carrying values of the patents existed at September 30, 2008.

Item 1. | Interim financial statements and basis of presentation (continued) |
3. | Patents (continued) |
Amortization of patent costs was $95 and $284, respectively, for each of the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2008 and 2007.
4. | Short-term debt |
In 2006 and 2007, the Company entered into long-term financing agreements with Michael Engmann, a stockholder of the Company owning approximately 7% of the Company’s then outstanding shares of common stock, and with unrelated third parties. Each financing included a Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement and a Registration Rights Agreement. The notes bore interest at a rate of 15% per annum, payable quarterly in cash. The fair value ascribed to the warrants issued in connection with the financings creates a debt discount that is amortized to interest expense over the life of the respective loans. The proceeds from these financings, as more fully described below, were used for working capital purposes.
In November 2006, the Company borrowed $600, of which $450 was borrowed from Michael Engmann and the remaining $150 from an unrelated third party. The notes were due May 17, 2008. In connection with the notes, the lenders were granted warrants to purchase 3,111 shares of common stock. The warrants are exercisable for three years commencing June 30, 2007, and have an exercise price of $0.51. The Company ascribed a fair value of $336 to the warrants, which was recorded as a discount to “debt” in the balance sheet. The fair value ascribed to the warrants was estimated on the commitment date using the Black-Scholes pricing model with the following assumptions: risk-free interest rate of 4.68%; expected life of 3 years; expected volatility of 54%; and expected dividend yield of 0%.
In March and April 2007, the Company borrowed $670 and $50, respectively, of which $320 was borrowed from Michael Engmann and the remaining $400 from unrelated third parties. The notes were due August 30, 2008. In connection with the notes, the lenders were granted warrants to purchase 3,474 shares of common stock. The warrants are exercisable for three years commencing June 30, 2007, and have an exercise price of $0.51. The Company ascribed a fair value of $359 to the warrants, which was recorded as a discount to “debt” in the balance sheet. The fair value ascribed to the warrants was estimated on the commitment date using the Black-Scholes pricing model with the following assumptions: risk-free interest rate of 4.68%; life of 3 years; expected volatility of 45%; and expected dividend yield of 0%.
In June 2007, the Company borrowed $400 under a financing agreement from Michael Engmann. The notes are due December 30, 2008. In connection with the notes, the lenders were granted warrants to purchase 3,168 shares of common stock. The warrants are exercisable for three years commencing June 30, 2007, and have an exercise price of $0.25. The Company has ascribed a fair value of $187 to the warrants, which is recorded as a discount to “debt” in the balance. The relative fair value ascribed to the warrants was estimated on the commitment date using the Black-Scholes pricing model with the following assumptions: risk-free interest rate of 4.90%; life of 3 years; expected volatility of 69%; and expected dividend yield of 0%.
All of the shares underlying the warrants discussed above were registered with the Company’s Form S-1/A, which was declared effective December 28, 2007.
A portion of the above referenced debt held by Michael Engmann, including accrued and unpaid interest through May 31, 2008, was exchanged for Preferred Shares (See Note 7). The remainder of the debt held by Michael Engmann, and part of the debt held by certain third parties, including accrued and unpaid interest through May 31, 2008, was refinanced pursuant to the Credit Agreement (See Note 5). The debt being so

exchanged or refinanced was originally issued in the transactions between August 2006 and June 2007 discussed above, and the related Note and Warrant Purchase Agreements, were terminated in connection with the Financing Transactions. The warrants to acquire 9,653 shares of the Company’s common stock issued as part of the above reference financings remain outstanding. These warrants are exercisable until June 30, 2010.
The remaining $125 debt plus accrued but unpaid interest was paid on September 30, 2008.
5. | Long-term debt |
On June 5, 2008, the Company effected a financing transaction under which the Company raised capital through the issuance of new secured indebtedness and equity, and restructured a portion of the Company’s existing short-term debt (collectively, the “Financing Transaction”). Certain parties to the Financing Transactions (Phoenix Venture Fund LLC and Michael Engmann) had a pre-existing relationship with the Company and, with respect to such parties, the Financing Transaction may be considered a related party transaction.
Under the Financing Transaction, the Company entered into a Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) and a Pledge and Security Agreement (the “Pledge Agreement”), each dated as of June 5, 2008, with Phoenix Venture Fund LLC (“Phoenix”), Michael Engmann and Ronald Goodman (collectively with Phoenix, the “Creditors,” and each individually a “Creditor”). Under the terms of the Credit Agreement, the Company received an aggregate of $3,000 and refinanced $638 of existing indebtedness and accrued interest on that indebtedness (individually, a “Loan” and collectively, the “Loans”). The Loans, which are represented by secured promissory notes (each a “Note” and collectively, the “Notes”), bear interest at eight percent (8%) per annum which, at the option of the Company, may be paid in cash or in kind and mature June 5, 2010. The Company used a portion of the proceeds from the Loans to pay the Company’s existing indebtedness and accrued interest on that indebtedness that was not exchanged for preferred stock as described below, and may use the remaining proceeds for working capital and general corporate purposes, in each case in the ordinary course of business; and to pay fees and expenses in connection with the Financing Transaction, which were approximately $475. Additionally, a portion of the proceeds of the Loans were used to repay a short term loan from a Company employee in the amount of $125, plus accrued interest, that was made prior to and in anticipation of the closing of the Financing Transaction. Under the terms of the Pledge Agreement, the Company and its subsidiary, CIC Acquisition Corp., granted the Creditors a first priority security interest in and lien upon all of the assets of the Company and CIC Acquisition Corp.
Under the terms of the Credit Agreement and in partial consideration for the Creditors’ respective Loans made pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement as described above, the Company issued to each Creditor a warrant to purchase up to the number of shares of the Company’s common stock obtained by dividing the amount of such Creditor’s Loan by 0.14 (each a “Warrant” and collectively, the ‘Warrants”). A total of 25,982 shares of the Company’s Common Stock may be issued upon exercise of the Warrants. The Warrants are exercisable beginning June 30, 2008 until their expiration on June 30, 2011. The Warrants have an exercise price of fourteen cents ($0.14) per share. Additional Warrants may be issued if the Company exercises its option to make interest payments on the Loans in kind. The Company ascribed the relative fair value of $1,231 to the warrants, which is recorded as a discount to “Long-term debt” in the balance sheet. The fair value of the warrants was estimated on the commitment date using the Black-Scholes pricing model with the following assumptions: risk-free interest rate of 2.73%; expected life of 3 years; expected volatility of 82.3%; and expected dividend yield of 0%.

In connection with the closing of the Financing Transaction, the Company also entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) and a Registration Rights Agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) each dated as of June 5, 2008, (See Note 7).
The offer and sale of the Notes, Warrants and Preferred Shares as detailed above, including the Common Stock issuable upon exercise or conversion thereof, was made in reliance upon exemptions from registration afforded by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act and Rule 506 of Regulation D, as promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act and under exemptions from registration available under applicable state securities laws.
Interest expense associated with the Company’s debt for the three months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007 was $308 and $506, respectively, of which $259 and $141 was related party and $49 and $365 was related to other creditors. Amortization of debt discount included in interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007 was $227 and $418, respectively, of which $204 and $95 was related party expense and $23 and $323 was related to the other creditors.
Interest expense associated with the Company’s debt for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007 was $857 and $1,019, respectively, of which $659 and $337 was related party and $198 and $682 was related to the other creditors. Amortization of debt discount included in interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007 was $643 and $808, respectively, of which $512 and $242 was related party and $131 and $566 was related to the other creditors.
6. | Net (loss) per share |
The Company calculates net loss per share under the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, “Earnings Per Share” (“SFAS 128”). SFAS 128 requires the disclosure of both basic net loss per share, which is based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding, and when applicable, diluted income per share, which is based on the weighted average number of shares and dilutive potential shares outstanding.
For the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2008, 7,616 and 41,131 shares of common stock subject to outstanding options and warrants, respectively, and 7,429 shares of common stock issuable upon the conversion of the convertible preferred stock were excluded from the calculation of dilutive earnings per share because the exercise of such options and warrants and the conversion of the preferred stock would be anti-dilutive. For the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2007, 6,011 shares of common stock subject to outstanding options, 3,372 shares issuable upon the conversion of the convertible notes and 14,862 warrants were excluded from the calculation of dilutive earnings per share because the exercise or conversion of such options and warrants would be anti-dilutive.

“Individual Plans”). Share-based compensation expense is based on the estimated grant date fair value of the portion of share-based payment awards that are ultimately expected to vest during the period. The grant date fair value of stock-based awards to employees and directors is calculated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 123(R), “Share-Based Payment” requires forfeitures of share-based payment awards to be estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. The estimated average forfeiture rates for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007 was approximately 27%, based on historical data.
SFAS No. 123(R) requires the cash flows from tax benefits for deductions in excess of the compensation costs recognized for share-based payment awards to be classified as financing cash flows. Due to the Company’s loss position, there were no such tax benefits during the three and nine month periods ending September 30, 2008 and 2007.
Valuation and Expense Information under SFAS No. 123(R):
The weighted-average fair value of stock-based compensation is based on the single option valuation approach. Forfeitures are estimated and it is assumed no dividends will be declared. The estimated fair value of stock-based compensation awards to employees is amortized using the accrual method over the vesting period of the options. The fair value calculations are based on the following assumptions:
Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2008 | Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2007 | |||
Risk free interest rate | 3.32% - 5.11% | 3.65% - 5.11% | ||
Expected life (years) | 3.21 – 6.88 | 3.19 -7.00 | ||
Expected volatility | 80.96% – 104.57% | 51.68% – 104.57% | ||
Expected dividends | None | None |
The following table summarizes the allocation of stock-based compensation expense related to stock option grants under SFAS 123(R) included in operating expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007. There were 1,775 stock options granted during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008 and no options were exercised. There were 370 and 695 stock options granted during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007, and no options were exercised.

Preferred Shares
In connection with the closing of the June 2008 Financing Transaction (see Note 6, Long-term debt), the Company also entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) and a Registration Rights Agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) each dated as of June 5, 2008. Under the Purchase Agreement, in exchange for the cancellation of $995 in principal amount and $45 of interest accrued thereon of the Company’s aggregate outstanding $2,071 in existing debt and interest accrued thereon through May 31, 2008, the Company issued to the holders of such debt an aggregate of 1,040 shares of the Company’s Series A Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Preferred Shares”). The Preferred Shares carry an eight percent (8%) annual dividend, payable quarterly in arrears in cash or in additional Preferred Shares, have a liquidation preference over Common Stock of one dollar ($1.00) per share and are convertible into shares of Common Stock at the conversion price of fourteen cents ($0.14) per share. If the “Preferred Shares” are converted in their entirety, the Company would issue 7,429 shares of common stock. The shares of Preferred Stock are convertible any time after June 30, 2008. The preferred stock transaction resulted in a beneficial conversion

feature of $371, of which $273 is attributable to Michael Engmann and $98 to the other creditors. The beneficial conversion feature was recorded as a charge to loss applicable to common stockholders for the quarter ended June 30, 2008. The Company has accrued dividends on the preferred shares of $27. As of September 30, 2008, $6 of the accrued dividends have been paid in cash.
Under the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement, the Company is obligated to prepare and file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) a registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the Securities Act”) covering the resale of the shares of Common Stock issued upon conversion of the shares of Preferred Stock and exercise of the Warrants as described above. The Company must also use its reasonable best efforts to keep the registration statement continuously effective under the Securities Act until the earlier of the date that is two years after its Effective Date or until the date that all shares purchased under the Purchase Agreement have been sold or can be sold publicly under Rule 144. The Registration Rights Agreement provided for certain registration rights whereby the Company would have incurred penalties if a registration statement was not filed or declared effective by the SEC on a timely basis. The Company filed the required registration statement on August 18, 2008, which was declared effective on October 10, 2008. The Company was obligated to pay the costs and expenses of such registration.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in Part 1, Item 1 of this quarterly report on Form 10-Q and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” set forth in the Company’s Annual Report for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007.
Overview
The Company is a leading supplier of electronic signature solutions for business process automation serving primarily the financial services industry and is the acknowledged leader in biometric signature verification technology. Our products enable companies to achieve secure paperless business transactions with multiple signature technologies across virtually all applications and hardware platforms.
The Company was incorporated in Delaware in October 1986. Except for the year ended December 31, 2004, in each year since its inception the Company has incurred losses. For the five-year period ended December 31, 2007, net losses aggregated approximately $11,441 and at December 31, 2007, the Company's accumulated deficit was approximately $91,300. At September 30, 2008, our accumulated deficit was approximately $94,000.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2008, total revenues were $1,558, an increase of $213, or 16%, compared to total revenues of $1,345 in the corresponding prior year period. Total revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2008 increased $265, or 58% to $721, compared to revenues of $456 in the corresponding prior year period. Orders for the three months ended September 30, 2008, however, were $629 higher than revenue recognizable for that period and such orders are expected to be recognized in the fourth quarter of 2008.

The Company continues to experience demand for its electronic signature technology in the insurance sector despite the turmoil and volatility in the financial markets. Based upon prior large scale deployments at AEGON/WFG, AIG, Prudential and State Farm, and two new customers which are top tier insurance companies, together with pending orders from other insurance companies, we believe CIC is emerging as the leading and preferred supplier of electronic signature solutions for property/casualty and life applications. Due to the credit crisis certain anticipated orders from banks and lending institutions were not received; however, the October 23, 2008 webinar with Computer Science Corporation (CSC), focusing on a solution to automate the mortgage workout process, has generated encouraging interest and the Company anticipates that it will lead to near term revenue opportunities. US banks and lenders are challenged with the need to increase revenue while improving the effectiveness and efficiency of their processes in the face of increased regulatory and compliance demands exacerbated by the recent sub prime and credit crisis. The Company anticipates that this crisis, which will lead to increased regulatory controls and the need to administer the billions of bailout dollars to settle troubled mortgages, will accelerate the deployment of electronic signature technology based solutions to address those challenges. Although there is uncertainty relative to how long the capital market/credit crisis will last and to what degree its impact will effect IT spending in the financial market that the Company serves, it seems increasingly apparent that financial institutions are recognizing that the Company’s technology addresses their needs for both revenue growth and expense reduction and that the crisis may well accelerate the adoption of electronic signature solutions in the financial services industry. At September 30, 2008, had the Company been able to recognize, as revenue, approximately $500 more of the orders received in the third quarter, it would have achieved an operating profit for that quarter. So, despite the turmoil/volatility in the capital markets and the impact on the Company’s target financial entities the Company believes its objective of achieving and sustaining quarterly profitability and cash flow positive operations in the near term continues to be viable. Further, the Company believes its overall strategy and organizational structure constitutes a significant competitive advantage. To operate a cost effective organizational expense structure while maintaining product and market leadership is a key factor in achieving and sustaining profitability in an emerging market. The Company believes it is becoming increasingly evident that it is winning orders due to its sales strategy and product differentiation. The Company has responded to evolving market needs with a high level of repeatable software products that afford a competitive advantage and cost effective product structure for both direct end user deployments and embeds into partner software platforms. The Company, as a strategy, has been focused for years on being at its core “lean and agile” while establishing long standing strategic relationships that allow the Company to rapidly access product development and deployment capabilities required to address virtually any deployment requirement. The Company has developed a core team of skilled employees scalable to virtually any deployment/business requirement through existing agreements with specialized development teams (well versed in the area of signature technology and processes), mid-size vertical market IT services groups (with explicit knowledge of the intricacies of the financial services industry) and with tier one IT Services firms with virtually limitless deployment resources available. This scalable product development and deployment capability allows the Company to maintain a lean, agile expense structure with the potential to rapidly achieve sustained profitability at minimal levels of revenue as the emerging eSignature market develops and adoption matures.
The loss from operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 increased by $129 to $1,880, compared with a loss from operations of $1,751 in the prior year period. This increase, is primarily attributed to the net effect of higher recorded revenues, offset by a $343 increase in cost of sales to $663 in the current period compared to $320 in the prior year period. The increase in cost of goods sold is due to third party hardware costs, increased amortization of previously capitalized software development costs and engineering labor costs associated with nonrecurring engineering project revenue.
In June 2008, the Company closed a financing transaction under which it raised capital through the issuance of secured indebtedness and equity and restructured a portion of the Company’s existing debt. In connection with the transaction, the Company borrowed an aggregate of $3,000 and refinanced $638 of existing indebtedness and accrued interest on the Company’s existing indebtedness. In partial consideration for the respective loans made as described above, the Company issued to each creditor a warrant to purchase up to the number of shares of its common stock obtained by dividing the amount of such creditor’s loan by 0.14. A total of 25,982,143 shares of our common stock may be issued upon exercise of the warrants at an exercise price of $0.14 per share. The issuance of the warrants was exempt from registration under Sections 4(2) and 4(6) of the Securities Act and Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated thereunder.

In June 2008, in connection with the closing of the financing transaction, the Company also entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement and a Registration Rights Agreement. Under the Securities Purchase Agreement, in exchange for the cancellation of $995 in principal and $45 of interest accrued on our existing debt, the Company issued to the holders of such debt an aggregate of 1,040,000 shares of Series A Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock. The preferred shares carry an 8% annual dividend, payable quarterly in arrears in cash or in additional preferred shares, have a liquidation preference over common stock of $1.00 per share and are convertible into shares of common stock at the conversion price of $0.14 per share. The shares of preferred stock are convertible at any time. The issuance and sale of such shares was effected without registration under the Securities Act in reliance on the exemption from registration provided under Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act and under Sections 4(2) and 4(6) of the Securities Act.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Warrant valuation
Warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock were issued as part of the Company’s financing transactions. The fair value of the warrants was calculated using the Black-Scholes pricing model at the date of issuance. The relative fair value attributable to the warrants is recorded as a debt discount in the Company’s balance sheet. The debt discount is amortized to interest expense over the life of the debt, using the straight-line interest method, which approximates the effective interest method, assuming the debt will be held to maturity.
The use of the Black-Scholes model requires that we estimate the fair value of the underlying equity instruments issuable upon the exercise of options and warrants. In determining the fair value of our warrants, the Company utilizes the market price for our shares, the contractual life, and volatility.
For a complete description of the Company’s critical accounting policies refer to Item 7, “Management Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in the Company’s 2007 Annual Report.
Results of Operations
Revenues
Total revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2008 increased $265, or 58%, to $721, compared to $456 in the prior year period. Product revenue reflects a 210% increase in eSignature and a 97% decrease in natural input revenues compared to the prior year period. Orders for the three months ended September 30, 2008 were $629 higher than revenue recognizable for that period and such amount is expected to be recognized as revenue in the fourth quarter of 2008. Maintenance revenue decreased 3%, or $6, for the three months ended September 30, 2008 compared to the prior year period. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in the renewal activity of existing maintenance contracts from ongoing customers.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2008, total revenues were $1,558, an increase of $213, or 16%, compared to $1,345 in the prior year period. Product revenues increased 23%, or $188, while maintenance revenues increased 5%, or $25, compared to the prior year period. The increase in product revenue primarily reflects the increase in new orders booked compared to the prior year period. The increase in maintenance revenue was primarily due to the renewal of existing maintenance contracts from ongoing customers and new maintenance contracts associated with new product orders.
Cost of Sales
Cost of sales primarily includes amortization of new and previously capitalized software development costs associated with the Company’s product and maintenance revenues, engineering labor and third party hardware costs associated with certain product sales. Cost of sales for the three months ended September 30, 2008 increased $163, or 163%, to $263, compared to $100 in the prior year period. The increase is due in part to an increase in engineering labor for product development work completed in the third quarter. In addition, amortization of previously capitalized software development costs increased $44, or 50%, to $132, compared to $88 in the prior year period.

FORM 10-Q
For the nine months ended September 30, 2008, cost of sales increased $343, or 107%, to $663, compared to $320 in the prior year period. The increase is due primarily to the sale of third party hardware, engineering labor associated with nonrecurring engineering revenues and amortization of previously capitalized engineering software development costs. Amortization of previously capitalized software development costs increased $103, or 43%, to $345, compared to $242 in the prior year period. Amortization of capitalized software development cost to cost of sales is expected to increase in the future as new products and enhancements are completed.
Operating expenses
Research and Development Expenses
Research and development expenses consist primarily of salaries and related costs, outside engineering, maintenance, and allocated facilities expenses, net of software development costs capitalized. Research and development expenses decreased approximately 15%, or $13, for the three months ended September 30, 2008 compared to the prior year period. The decrease was due primarily to engineering labor cost associated with nonrecurring engineering revenues transferred to cost of sales and an increase in the amount of software development costs capitalized compared to the prior year period. Total costs, before capitalization of software development and other allocations, were $431 for the three months ended September 30, 2008 compared to $379 in the prior year period. The increase was primarily due to the addition of one additional engineer late in the second quarter of 2008.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2008, research and development expenses decreased $177, or 51%, compared to the prior year period. The decrease is primarily due to the amount of engineering labor transferred to cost of sales and the amount software development costs capitalized compared to the prior year period. Total costs, before capitalization of software development and other allocations, were $1,225, an increase of 9%, or $99 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 compared to $1,126 in the prior year period. The increase was primarily due to the addition of one additional engineer late in the second quarter of 2008 and outside engineering associated with development project revenue in the first quarter of 2008.
Sales and Marketing Expenses
Sales and marketing expenses of $337 decreased 8%, or $28, for the three months ended September 30, 2008 compared to the prior year period. The decrease was primarily attributable to a headcount reduction and associated salary and related expenses early in the second quarter 2008, compared to the prior year period, In addition there were decreases in marketing programs during the quarter ended September 30, 2008 compared to the prior year period.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2008, sales and marketing expense of $1,052 increased $130, or 14%, compared to the prior year period. The increase is primarily due to increases in marketing programs and engineering sales support compared to the prior year period.
The Company expects sales and marketing expenses will continue at the current higher levels in the near term due to planned increases in marketing programs in the fourth quarter of 2008.
General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative expenses of $535 increased 5%, or $25, for the three months ended September 30, 2008, compared to the prior year period. The increase was primarily due to an increase in stock option expense related to grants awarded in the third quarter. These increases were partially offset by decreases in insurance premiums and investor relations expenses compared to the prior year period.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2008, general and administrative expenses increased $46, or 3%, compared to the prior period. The increase is attributable to the reasons discussed above for the change in the three month period.
The Company anticipates that general and administrative expense will remain above the prior year amounts for the foreseeable future due to the increases in the expenses discussed above.

FORM 10-Q
Interest income and other income, net
Interest income and other income (expense), net, for the three months ended September 30, 2008 increased to $40 from income of $4 in the prior year period. The increase is due to the increased cash balance and interest received from customers on past due accounts receivable balances during the current period compared to the prior year period. For the nine months ended September 30, 2008, interest income and other income (expense), net, increased $36, to $45, compared to $9 in the prior year period. The increase was primarily due to the interest earned on the cash received in the June 2008 financing transaction and interest received on past due accounts receivable balances.
Interest expense
Interest expense decreased 8%, or $7, to $81 for the three months ended September 30, 2008, compared to $88 in the prior year period. The decrease was primarily due to the reduction in the rate of interest accrued on the Company’s debt from 15% to 8% brought about by the debt and equity financing completed in June, 2008. (See Notes 4 and 5 in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of this Form 10-Q).
For the nine months ended September 30, 2008, interest expense increased 1%, or $3, to $214, compared to $211 in the prior year period. The increase is primarily due to the increase in debt financing consummated in June 2008.
Amortization of loan discount, which includes warrant costs associated with the Company’s debt, deferred financing costs, associated with the convertible notes and note and warrant purchase agreements decreased 46%, or $191, to $227 for the three months ended September 30, 2008, compared to $418 in the prior year period. The decrease was primarily due to the final amortization expense in the third quarter of 2007 of the warrant costs associated with the convertible debt.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2008, amortization of loan discount and related costs discussed above decreased 20%, or 165 to $643 compared to $808 in the prior year period. The decrease was primarily due to the factors discussed above. The Company will amortize an additional $8 to interest expense over the remaining life of the unconverted notes and $1,026 assigned to the new long term debt or sooner if the notes are paid off before the due date.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
At September 30, 2008, cash and cash equivalents totaled $1,276 compared to cash and cash equivalents of $1,144 at December 31, 2007. The increase in cash was primarily due to proceeds from the financing transaction offset by cash used in operations of $1,546 and $673 used in investing activities, including $659 in capitalization of software development costs and the acquisition of property and equipment amounting to $14. Total current assets were $1,998 at September 30, 2008, compared to $1,731 at December 31, 2007. As of September 30, 2008, the Company's principal sources of funds included its cash and cash equivalents aggregating $1,276.
Accounts receivable net, increased $129 to $581 as of September 30, 2008, compared to the December 31, 2007 balance, due primarily to the increase in sales in the third quarter of 2008 compared to the fourth quarter of 2007. The Company expects the development of the eSignature market ultimately will result in more consistent revenue on a quarter to quarter basis and, therefore, less fluctuation in accounts receivable from quarter to quarter.
The deferred financing costs of $376 at September 30, 2008 are associated with the debt and equity financing consummated in June 2008. These costs represent consulting and legal fees associated with the financing transaction. These costs will be amortized to interest expense over the life of the debt or sooner if the debt is paid off early.
Prepaid expenses and other current assets increased by $6 as of September 30, 2008 compared to December 31, 2007, due primarily to prepaid fees for a marketing program to be held in November 2008. Annual fees on maintenance and support costs added to prepaids over the three months ended September 30, 2008 were approximately equal to the quarterly amortization amounts.

FORM 10-Q
Accounts payable increased $29 to $164 as of September 30, 2008 compared to December 31, 2007, due primarily to professional service fees associated with the Company’s S-1 filing. Accounts payable balances typically increase in the second and fourth quarters when the insurance and annual maintenance and support fees are incurred. Materials used in cost of sales may impact accounts payable depending on the amount of third party hardware sold as part of the software solution. Accrued compensation decreased $26 to $338 compared to the December 31, 2007 balance due to the payment of salaries that were deferred during 2007. The balance may fluctuate due to increases or decreases in the number of personnel, utilization of, or increases to, the accrued vacation balance and the timing of pay periods.
Total current liabilities were $1,065 at September 30, 2008, compared to $2,598 at December 31, 2007. Deferred revenue, totaling $266 at September 30, 2008, compared to $431 at December 31, 2007, primarily reflects advance payments for maintenance fees from the Company's licensees that are generally recognized as revenue by the Company when all obligations are met or over the term of the maintenance agreement, whichever is longer. Deferred revenue is recorded when the Company receives payment from its customers.
In 2006 and 2007, the Company entered into long-term financing agreements aggregating $1,670 with Michael Engmann, a stockholder of the Company owning approximately 7% of the Company’s then outstanding shares of common stock and with unrelated third parties. Each financing included a Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement and a Registration Rights Agreement. The notes bore interest at a rate of 15% per annum, payable quarterly in cash. The Company issued warrants to acquire an aggregate of 9,753,000 shares of the Company’s common stock associated with the notes with exercise prices ranging from of $0.25 to $0.51 per share. These warrants are exercisable until June 30, 2010. All of the shares underlying the warrants discussed above were registered with the Company’s Form S-1/A, which was declared effective December 28, 2007. The fair value ascribed to the warrants issued in connection with the financings is carried as a discount to the related debt in the balance sheet and is written off to interest expense over the life of the respective loans or upon extinguishment if that occurs earlier. The proceeds from these financings were used for working capital purposes. Debt of $125 plus accrued interest was paid on September 30, 2008 and the balance of the debt, including accrued and unpaid interest through May 31, 2008, was restructured into long term debt or exchanged for Preferred Shares as more fully described below.
On June 5, 2008, the Company closed a financing transaction which raised capital through the issuance of new secured indebtedness and equity, and restructured a portion of the Company’s existing short-term debt (collectively, the “Financing Transaction”). Certain parties to the Financing Transaction (Phoenix Venture Fund LLC and Michael Engmann) had a pre-existing relationship with the Company and, with respect to such parties the Financing Transaction may be considered a related party transaction. For a detailed discussion of the transaction please refer to Note 5 in Item 1 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Form 10-Q.
Interest expense associated with the Company’s debt for the three months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007 was $308 and $506, respectively, of which $259 and $141 was related party and $49 and $365 was related to other creditors. Amortization of debt discount included in interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007 was $227 and $418, respectively, of which $204 and $95 was related party expense and $23 and $323 was related to the other creditors.
Interest expense associated with the Company’s debt for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007 was $857 and $1,019, respectively, of which $659 and $337 was related party and $198 and $682 was related to the other creditors. Amortization of debt discount included in interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007 was $643 and $808, respectively, of which $512 and $242 was related party and $131 and $566 was related to the other creditors.
The warrants to purchase 4,850,000 shares of the Company’s common stock issued under the 2004 Purchase Agreement expire on October 28, 2009. The Company may call the warrants if the Company’s common stock trades at $1.00 or above for 20 consecutive trading days after the date that is 20 days following the effectiveness of a registration statement providing for the resale of the shares issued upon exercise of the warrants. The placement agent in connection with this financing will be paid approximately $28 in the aggregate if all of the investor warrants are exercised. The Company will receive additional proceeds of approximately $1,845 if all of the investor warrants are exercised.

The Company has suffered recurring losses from operations that raise a substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. There can be no assurance that the debt and equity transactions described above will provide the Company with adequate capital resources to fund planned operations or that any additional funds will be available to it when needed, or if available, will be available on favorable terms.
