Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
December 31, 2009
1. Basis of Presentation
Avatech Solutions, Inc. (the “Company”) provides design automation and facilities and data management software, hardware, training, technical support and professional services to corporations, government agencies and educational institutions throughout the United States.
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions to Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules or regulations. The interim financial statements are unaudited, but reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) which are, in management’s opinion, necessary to present a fair statement of results of the interim periods presented. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and the notes thereto in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2009. Operating results for the three and six months ended December 31, 2009 are not necessarily indicative of results for the full fiscal year or any future interim period.
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions between the Company and its consolidated affiliated companies have been eliminated in consolidation.
2. Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Effective September 15, 2009, the Company adopted the requirements of FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 105 (previously SFAS No. 168, “The FASB Accounting Standards Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles”). ASC 105 is effective for financial statements issued for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009 and establishes the FASB ASC as the single source of authoritative U.S. GAAP recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities. ASC 105 does not apply to rules and interpretive releases of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), which are sources of authoritative U.S. GAAP for SEC Registrants. All other non-grandfathered, non-SEC accounting literature not included in the Codification is non-authoritative. The Codification did not change current U.S. GAAP, and reorganized U.S. GAAP into a topical structure. References to the relevant ASC section and the previously existing U.S. GAAP standard have been provided throughout the document.
In June 2008, the FASB ratified the consensus reached on FASB ASC 815 (previously EITF Issue No. 07-5,“Determining Whether an Instrument or an Embedded Feature is Indexed to an Entity’s Own Stock”), which provides guidance for determining whether an equity-linked financial instrument (or embedded feature) is indexed to an entity’s own stock. ASC 815 applies to any freestanding financial instrument or embedded feature that has all the characteristics of a derivative, previously discussed under paragraphs 6-9 of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133 “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities,” (“SFAS 133”) for purposes of determining whether that instrument or embedded feature qualifies for the first part of the scope exception. ASC 815 also applies to any freestanding financial instrument that is potentially settled in an entity’s own stock, regardless of whether the instrument has all the characteristics of a derivative, for purposes of determining whether the instrument is within the scope of guidance previously discussed in EITF Issue 00-19, “Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to, and Potentially Settled in, a Company’s Own Stock,” which provides accounting guidance for instruments that are indexed to, and potentially settled in, the issuer’s own stock. The Company’s adoption of ASC 815 did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Table of Contents
In May 2009, the FASB issued ASC 855 (previously SFAS No. 165, “Subsequent Events”). ASC 855 establishes standards for accounting and disclosure of material events that occur after the balance sheet date and their respective evaluation dates. The Company currently discloses its subsequent events within the established guidelines of ASC 855 and has performed its evaluation through February 16, 2010, the date these financial statements were issued.
In October 2009, the FASB issued an update regarding multi-deliverable revenue arrangements under ASC 605. ASC 605 provides standards for the accounting for product and services sales individually and not as a whole. In addition, it requires disclosures of the arrangement, including a description, deliverables, timing of such deliverables, and methodologies to estimate the selling price. The Company is currently evaluating this update and its effects on the Company’s financial statements. Compliance is effective for all financial statements issued on or after June 15, 2010.
3. Supplemental Disclosure of Cash Flow Information
The Company paid interest of approximately $5,000 and $15,000 during the three and six months ended December 31, 2009, respectively, and paid federal and state income taxes of approximately $5,000 and $32,000, during the three and six months ended December 31, 2009, respectively.
4. Employee Stock Compensation Plans
The Board of Directors may grant options under the Avatech Solutions, Inc. 2002 Stock Option Plan (the “Plan”) to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of not less than the fair market value of the common stock on the date of grant. The Plan provides for the granting of either incentive or non-qualified stock options to purchase an aggregate of up to 3,100,000 shares of common stock to eligible employees, officers, and directors of the Company. Stock options generally have a maximum term of 10 years. Options generally vest ratably over three or four years, depending on the specific grant award. There were no stock option awards granted during the six months ended December 31, 2009 or 2008.
Pursuant to its Board compensation plan, for the three and six months ended December 31, 2009, the Company issued 21,601 and 60,171 shares, respectively, of fully vested common stock to members of the Board of Directors under the Company’s Restricted Stock Award Plan, with an aggregate market value of $11,000 and $29,000, respectively. In addition, during the six months ended December 31, 2009, the Company issued 50,000 shares of restricted stock to its Chief Executive Officer in accordance with his compensation agreement, with an aggregate market value of $25,000.
For the three and six months ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, total stock compensation expense charged against income for these plans was $49,000 and $80,000, and $54,000 and $108,000, respectively.
A summary of stock option activity during the six months ended December 31, 2009 and related information is included in the table below:

5. Borrowings Under Line of Credit
The Company maintains a line of credit from a bank that provides for up to $5 million of borrowings limited to 80% of the Company’s aggregate eligible accounts receivable. The interest rate is the 30-day London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) plus 2.25%, or an interest rate of 2.48% as of December 31, 2009. The loan expires on December 31, 2010 and is secured by all of the Company’s assets, except certain inventories. The Company had no outstanding borrowings from the bank under this credit line at December 31, 2009 or June 30, 2009.
In December 2009, the Company and its bank agreed to modify certain covenants contained in the line of credit agreement. These modifications included the removal of certain financial ratios and a reduction in the Company’s required level of Minimum Tangible Net Worth as defined in the agreement from $2,000,000 to $1,500,000. All other terms and conditions remained unchanged.

8. Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings per common share is computed by dividing net earnings available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per common share include the potential dilution that would occur from common shares issuable upon the exercise of outstanding stock options and warrants and the conversion of preferred stock. As of December 31, 2009, 7,817,452 shares of common stock were issuable upon the conversion or exercise of options, warrants and preferred stock. For the three months ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, there were 5,344,851 and 8,999,954, respectively, shares of common stock equivalents excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share because their effect would have been antidilutive.
The following summarizes the computations of basic and diluted earnings per common share for the three and six months ended December 31, 2009 and 2008:

9. Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company had a $98,000 long-term capital lease obligation at December 31, 2009 and a working capital surplus of approximately $1,809,000. The Company’s management believes that its near-term needs can be met from its available cash resources and its line of credit.
Pursuant to the agreements executed as part of its June 2006 offering of its Series F Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series F Stock”), the Series F stockholders have the right to request redemptions of up to $500,000 of the Series F Stock each January 1, April 1, July 1 and October 1. Those stockholders and have expressed their intention of requesting the redemptions until their Series F stock has been fully redeemed. During the six months ended December 31, 2009, the Company redeemed 1,500 of the original 4,000 shares of Series F Stock for an aggregate redemption price of $1,500,000, plus accumulated dividends of $75,000. The last two redemptions were made one day early, resulting in three redemptions of 500 shares each, rather than the two redemptions as scheduled. The Company expects to fund the final $500,000 redemption, plus accumulated dividends, on April 1, 2010 out of its excess cash balance, resulting in a decrease of the Series F Stock balance of $454,000 and a reduction of additional paid-in capital of $46,000.

ITEM 2. | MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS |
THE FOLLOWING DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF THE FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND THE RELATED NOTES THERETO INCLUDED ELSEWHERE IN THIS REPORT.
This report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Readers of this report should be aware of the speculative nature of “forward-looking statements.” Statements that are not historical in nature, including those that include the words “anticipate,” “estimate,” “should,” “expect,” “believe,” “intend,” and similar expressions, are based on current expectations, estimates and projections about, among other things, the industry and the markets in which Avatech Solutions, Inc. (“the Company” or “Avatech”) operates, and they are not guarantees of future performance. Whether actual results will conform to expectations and predictions is subject to known and unknown risks and uncertainties, including risks and uncertainties discussed in this report; general economic, market, or business conditions; changes in interest rates, the cost of funds, and demand for the Company’s products and services; changes in the Company’s competitive position or competitive actions by other companies; the Company’s ability to manage growth; changes in laws or regulations or policies of federal and state regulators and agencies; and other circumstances beyond the Company’s control. Consequently, all of the forward-looking statements made in this report are qualified by these cautionary statements, and there can be no assurance that the actual results anticipated will be realized or, if substantially realized, will have the expected consequences on the Company’s business or operations. Except as required by applicable laws, the Company does not intend to publish updates or revisions of any forward-looking statements to reflect new information, future events or otherwise.
Overview
Avatech is a leading provider of design automation and data management solutions for the manufacturing, building design, engineering, and total infrastructure and facilities management markets. The Company specializes in technical support, training, and consulting aimed at improving design and documentation efficiencies and the seamless integration of workflow processes. These technology solutions enable its customers to enhance productivity, profitability, and competitive position. Avatech is one of the largest Autodesk software integrators worldwide and a leading provider of engineering document management solutions.
The Company’s business strategy is built on three core principles designed to leverage its existing strengths with expected market opportunities:
• | Maintain and profitably grow its strong position in the Autodesk software economy. |
• | Profitably grow its consulting and services business by leveraging its expertise in design engineering. |
• | Acquire and integrate diverse, yet complementary, software and services businesses to extend its product offerings to its large customer base and expand its market potential. |
This strategy was designed to match the Company’s product and service offerings more precisely with the needs of its customers.
Product Sales- Product sales consist primarily of the resale of packaged design software, including:
• | Autodesk design automation software for mechanical, architectural and civil engineering sectors and visualization and animation technology; |
• | Autodesk data management software; |
• | Archibus facilities management software for space planning, strategic planning, and lease/property administration; and |

Product sales also include Leica 3D laser scanning equipment for the Architectural, Engineering and Construction sector.
Service Revenue-Avatech provides services in the form of training, consulting services, software development, and technical support to its customers. Avatech employs a technical staff of approximately 46 personnel associated with these types of services.
Commission Revenue-The Company offers Autodesk’s subscription programs, which entitle subscribers to receive software upgrades, web support and eLearning lessons directly from Autodesk. Because Avatech does not participate in the delivery of these subscription products or the web support and eLearning lesson benefits, the Company records the gross profit from the sale of Autodesk software subscriptions as commission revenue. In addition, the Company sells technology upgrades to existing Autodesk customers through the Autodesk Subscription program where the customers receive the latest releases of Autodesk software, incremental product enhancements, personalized web support direct from Autodesk, and self-paced training to help extend its customers skills. Based on its analysis of the Autodesk Subscription program, Avatech records the net proceeds that it receives from Autodesk for subscription sales in accordance with the provisions of FASB ASC 605, (previously EITF 99-19,Reporting Revenue Gross as a Principal versus Net as an Agent) in September 2009.
Avatech also generates commission revenue from the resale of Autodesk software to various customers, a number of which Autodesk considers “major accounts.” Autodesk designates these customers as major accounts based on specific criteria, primarily sales volume, and typically gives these customers volume discounts. The Company is responsible for managing and reselling Autodesk products to a number of these major account customers; however, software products are shipped directly from Autodesk to the customers. Avatech receives commissions upon shipment of the products from Autodesk to the customer based on the product sales price.
Cost of Product Sales-The cost of product sales consists of the cost of purchasing products from software suppliers or hardware manufacturers as well as the associated shipping and handling costs.
Cost of Service Revenue-Cost of service revenue includes the direct costs associated with the implementation of software and hardware solutions as well as training, support services, and professional services. These costs consist primarily of compensation, travel, and the costs of third-party contractors engaged by the Company. The cost of service revenue does not include an allocation of overhead costs.
Selling, General and Administrative Expense- Selling, general and administrative expense consist primarily of compensation and other expenses associated with the Company’s sales force, management, finance, human resources, and information systems. Advertising and public relations expenses and expenses for facilities, such as rent and utilities, are also included in selling, general and administrative expenses.
Depreciation and Amortization Expense- Depreciation and amortization expenses represent the period costs associated with our investment in property and equipment, consisting principally of computer equipment, software, furniture and fixtures, and leasehold improvements. The Company computes depreciation and amortization expenses using the straight-line method. The Company leases all of its facilities and depreciates leasehold improvements over the lesser of the lease term or the estimated useful life of the asset.
Interest Expense- Interest expense consists of interest on capital lease obligations.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company has financed its operations and met its capital expenditure requirements through its cash balances.
The Company maintains a line of credit from a bank that provides for up to $5 million of borrowings limited to 80% of the Company’s aggregate eligible accounts receivable. The interest rate is the 30-day London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) plus 2.25%, or an interest rate of 2.48% as of December 31, 2009. The loan expires on December 31, 2010 and is secured by all of the Company’s assets, except certain inventories. The Company had no outstanding borrowings from the bank under this credit line at December 31, 2009 or June 30, 2009.
In December 2009, the Company and its bank agreed to modify certain covenants contained in the line of credit agreement. These modifications included the removal of certain financial ratios and a reduction in the Company’s required level of Minimum Tangible Net Worth as defined in the agreement from $2,000,000 to $1,500,000. All other terms and conditions remained unchanged.
The Company’s operating assets and liabilities consist primarily of accounts receivable, inventory and accounts payable. Changes in these balances are affected principally by the timing of sales and investments in inventory based on expected customer demand. The Company attempts to minimize inventory levels through arrangements with suppliers to ship products with an average delivery period of two days and centralized inventory management. The Company purchases approximately 97% of its product from one principal supplier that provides it with credit to finance those purchases.
The Company’s investing activities consist principally of investments in computer and office equipment. Cash purchases of equipment for the six months ended December 31, 2009 decreased to $1,000 from $116,000 for the same period in fiscal year 2009.
For the six months ended December 31, 2009, net cash provided by operating activities was $2,193,000, compared with cash used in operating activities of $894,000 during the same period in fiscal year 2009. The increase in cash from operating activities was due primarily to increased trade accounts payable during the first two quarters of fiscal year 2010 versus decreased trade accounts payable during the first two quarters of fiscal year 2009. Trade accounts payable increased in fiscal year 2010 as the Company obtained more favorable payment terms from its primary supplier. In addition, the Company recorded net income of $608,000, compared with a net loss of $70,000 in fiscal year 2009.
For the six months ended December 31, 2009, the Company used $1,702,000 in financing activities, compared to $1,167,000 for the same period in fiscal year 2009.
Pursuant to the agreements executed as part of its June 2006 offering of its Series F Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series F Stock”), the Series F stockholders have the right to request redemptions of up to $500,000 of the Series F Stock each January 1, April 1, July 1 and October 1. Those stockholders have expressed their intention of requesting the redemptions until their Series F stock has been fully redeemed. During the six months ended December 31, 2009, the Company redeemed 1,500 of the original 4,000 shares of Series F Stock for an aggregate redemption price of $1,500,000 plus accumulated dividends of $75,000, compared to 1,000 shares, for an aggregate redemption price of $$1,000,000 plus accumulated dividends of $26,000, for the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year. The last two redemptions in the current fiscal year were made one day early, resulting in three redemptions of 500 shares each in the current fiscal year, rather than the two redemptions as scheduled.
The Company expects to fund the final $500,000 redemption, plus accumulated dividends, on April 1, 2010 out of its excess cash balance.
The Company had $98,000 in long-term capital lease obligations for a computer lease agreement and working capital of $1,809,000 at December 31, 2009.
Management believes the Company’s near-term needs can be met from its available cash resources and its line of credit.

ITEM 4T. | CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES |
The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 with the Securities and Exchange Commission, such as this Quarterly Report, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the periods specified in those rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and the Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure. A 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. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the

fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the control. The design of any system of controls is also based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any 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.
An evaluation of the effectiveness of these disclosure controls as of December 31, 2009 was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the CEO and the CFO. Based on that evaluation, management, including the CEO and the CFO, has concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are, in fact, effective at the reasonable assurance level.
During the quarter ended December 31, 2009, there was no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to affect materially, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
