Note 5.
INCOME PER COMMON AND COMMON STOCK EQUIVALENT SHARE
Basic income per common share is computed based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding.  There were 7,382,706 weighted-average common shares outstanding for the three and nine month periods ended March 31 , 2012 and 2011 .  When dilutive, stock options are included in income per share as share equivalents using the treasury stock method.
For the three and nine months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 , there were no common stock equivalents related to stock option grants that were included in the computation of the weighted-average number of shares outstanding for diluted income per share.  Shares under option of 1,654,308 and 1,474,308 were excluded from diluted weighted-average common shares outstanding for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 , respectively, as they would be anti-dilutive.
Note 6.
CREDIT FACILITY
On May 12, 2010, the Company entered into a secured credit facility with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (“Lender”).  The Credit Agreement dated May 12, 2010 between the Company and the Lender (“Credit Agreement”) provides for an $8,000,000 revolving secured credit facility with interest rates either ranging from 0.0% to 0.75% over the Lender’s most recently publicly announced prime rate or 2.0% to 3.0% over the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR), depending on the Company’s leverage ratio.  The Credit Agreement expires on July 31, 2013. In addition to the revolving loans, the Credit Agreement also provides that the Company may, from time to time, request the Lender to issue letters of credit for the benefit of the Company of up to a sublimit of $2,000,000 and subject to certain other limitations.  The loans may be used only for general corporate purposes of the Company.
The Credit Agreement contains certain affirmative, negative and financial covenants customary for financings of this type.  The negative covenants include restrictions on other indebtedness, liens, fundamental changes, certain investments, asset sales, sale and leaseback transactions and transactions with affiliates, among other restrictions.  The financial covenants include a minimum current ratio, minimum tangible net worth and maximum leverage ratio requirements.  The Company and the Lender also entered into the Pledge and Security Agreement under which the Company granted the Lender a security interest in substantially all of the Company’s assets in connection with the Company’s obligations under the Credit Agreement.  At March 31, 2012 and June 30, 2011 , the outstanding balance on this credit facility was $ 1,500,000 and $ 1,400,000 , respectively.  The applicable interest rate at March 31, 2012 was 2.24% on $ 1,500,000 of outstanding balance.  The applicable interest rates at June 30, 2011 were 2.19% on $1,000,000 of outstanding balance and 3.25% on $400,000 of outstanding balance.  The weighted average interest rates in effect on the borrowings outstanding as of March 31, 2012 and June 30, 2011 were 2.24% and 2.49% , respectively.

Note 7.
STOCK OPTIONS
In 1990, pursuant to the recommendation of the Board of Directors, the stockholders ratified the creation of the Company’s 1990 Flexible Incentive Plan (the “1990 Plan”).  The 1990 Plan is administered by a committee of the Board of Directors and provides for the granting of various stock-based awards including stock options to eligible participants.  A total of 225,000 shares of common stock were available in the first year of the 1990 Plan’s existence.  Each year thereafter additional shares equal to 0.25% of the shares outstanding as of the first day of the applicable fiscal year were reserved for issuance pursuant to the 1990 Plan.  On July 22, 1992, the Board of Directors authorized the reservation of an additional 250,000 shares for the 1990 Plan, which was approved by the stockholders.  In 1993, the Board of Directors authorized the reservation of an additional 300,000 shares for the 1990 Plan, which was approved by the stockholders.  In 1997, the Board of Directors authorized the reservation of an additional 300,000 shares for the 1990 Plan, which was approved by the stockholders.  In 2001, the Board of Directors authorized the reservation of an additional 300,000 shares for the 1990 Plan, which was also approved by the stockholders.  As of March 31, 2012 , there were 27,420 shares available for future grants.  Options vest over a three, four or five year period, with a maximum term of five to ten years.
The fair value of each stock option grant was estimated as of the date of grant using the Black-Scholes pricing model.  The resulting compensation cost for fixed awards with graded vesting schedules is amortized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period for the entire award.  The expected term of awards granted is determined based on historical experience with similar awards, giving consideration to the expected term and vesting schedules.  The expected volatility is determined based on the Company’s historical stock prices over the most recent period commensurate with the expected term of the award.  Beginning with options granted for the nine months ended March 31, 2012 , volatility was calculated using daily rates, which is a change from previous periods in which volatility was calculated using monthly rates.  The risk-free interest rate is based on U.S. Treasury zero-coupon issues with a remaining term commensurate with the expected term of the award.  Expected pre-vesting option forfeitures are based on historical data.  The total fair value of options granted during the nine months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 was $ 957,408 and $ 582,832 , respectively.

LEGAL MATTERS
The Company is currently involved in the following legal matters described below:

•
As previously reported, on January 15, 2010, a class action complaint was filed in federal court in Wisconsin against the Company, Michael J. Koss and Sujata Sachdeva. On March 9, 2012, the Court entered an order preliminarily approving a proposed settlement involving the claims that were brought against the Company and Michael J. Koss (the "Proposed Settlement") and directing that notice of the Proposed Settlement be given to the proposed settlement class. The Proposed Settlement involves a total payment of $1 million to the shareholders included within the proposed settlement class. This amount was funded by the Company’s insurance company, with any fee awarded to lead plaintiffs' counsel to be paid out of the $1 million payment. The Court scheduled a settlement hearing for July 10, 2012, to determine: whether the Proposed Settlement is fair, reasonable and adequate to the Class and should be approved by the Court; whether to certify a settlement class; whether a judgment as provided in the Proposed Settlement should be entered; whether the proposed plan of allocation should be approved; and to determine the amount of fees and expenses that should be awarded to lead plaintiffs' counsel. See David A. Puskala v. Koss Corporation, et al., United States District Court, Eastern District of Wisconsin, Case No. 2:2010cv00041.

•
On January 26, 2010, the SEC’s Division of Enforcement advised the Company that it obtained a formal order of investigation in connection with the unauthorized transactions.  The Company voluntarily brought the unauthorized transactions to the SEC staff’s attention when they were discovered in December 2009.  On October 24, 2011, the Company announced that the Company and Michael J. Koss agreed to a settlement with the SEC without admitting or denying the Commission’s charges in a Complaint that the SEC filed in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.  On February 23, 2012, the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Wisconsin entered Final Judgments against the Company and Michael J. Koss in accordance with the terms of the settlement. See United States Securities and Exchange Commission v. Koss Corporation and Michael J. Koss, civil action no. 2:11-cv-00991.  Pursuant to the settlement, Michael J. Koss reimbursed the Company 160,000 of options and an additional $242,419 in cash pursuant to Section 304 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, 15 U.S.C. Section 7243, which together with his previous voluntary reimbursement of $208,895, represents the full amount of bonuses that he received during the restatement periods.

•
On February 18, 2010, the Company filed an action against American Express Company, American Express Travel Related Services Company, Inc., AMEX Card Services Company, Decision Science, and Pamela S. Hopkins in Superior Court of Maricopa County, Arizona, case no. CV2010-006631, alleging various claims of aiding and abetting breach of fiduciary duty, aiding and abetting fraud, conversion, and negligence relating to the unauthorized transactions.  American Express filed a Motion to Dismiss the claims that the Company filed, and the Court granted the Motion to Dismiss.  The Company filed a Motion for New Trial requesting that the Court reconsider its prior ruling that granted the Motion to Dismiss, and the Court denied the Motion for New Trial.  The Company has appealed these rulings.

•
On June 24, 2010, the Company filed an action against its former independent auditor, Grant Thornton, LLP, and Ms. Sachdeva, in Circuit Court of Cook County, Illinois, alleging various claims of accounting malpractice, negligent misrepresentation, and fraud relating to the unauthorized transactions.  Grant Thornton filed a claim for contribution against the Koss outside directors, a claim for contribution against John Koss Sr., and claims for contribution and/or common law indemnity and fraudulent misrepresentation against Michael J. Koss. Ms. Sachdeva subsequently filed a response to the complaint and Grant Thornton filed a Motion to Dismiss the action.  This Motion to Dismiss was denied.  Grant Thornton also filed a Motion to Dismiss based on Forum Non Conveniens grounds and the Court granted this motion, holding that this case should be litigated in Milwaukee, Wisconsin as opposed to Cook County, Illinois. The Company has appealed this decision.

•
On December 17, 2010, the Company filed an action against Park Bank in Circuit Court of Milwaukee County, Wisconsin alleging a claim of negligence relating to the unauthorized transactions, and discovery is now proceeding.

10

The ultimate resolution of these litigation matters is not determinable unless otherwise noted.
On November 17, 2010, Sujata Sachdeva was sentenced to 11 years in prison.  As part of a restitution order that was entered relating to her sentence, the Company received $640,384 during the 3 months ended March 31, 2012 from the sale or transfer of certain of Ms. Sachdeva's assets that were seized by law enforcement and $53,983 of additional proceeds from the sale of Ms. Sachdeva's shares held in the Koss Employee Stock Ownership Trust. The Company expects to receive recoveries from the sale of additional assets that law enforcement seized from Ms. Sachdeva.

Item 2.
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Overview
Operations — Net sales for the three months ended March 31 decreased to $8,232,526 in 2012 compared with $ 8,419,663 in 2011 .  This $ 187,137 decrease in net sales was primarily caused by lower sales to a large mass retailer in the United States.  Including the unauthorized transaction related costs and recoveries, net of expenses, the Company had income from operations of $ 751,135 for the three months ended March 31, 2012 , compared to income from operations of $ 1,064,480 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 .  The decreased income from operations was primarily driven by the decline in sales, a decrease in the gross profit percentage from 40.3% to 38.3% and higher selling, general and administrative expenses.  These negative effects were partially offset by insurance and other unauthorized transaction related recoveries exceeding legal fees by $ 617,103 during the three months ended March 31, 2012 compared to a net recovery of $ 376,544 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 .  In the three months ended March 31, 2012 , the Company received $640,384 of forfeiture proceeds from the sale of certain assets seized from Ms. Sachdeva, the former VP of Finance and $53,983 of additional proceeds from the sale of Ms. Sachdeva's shares held in the Koss Employee Stock Ownership Trust. Operating income, excluding the unauthorized transactions and related costs and recoveries, was $ 134,032 or 1.6% of net sales for the three months ended March 31, 2012 compared to $ 687,936 or 8.2% of net sales for the three months ended March 31, 2011 .

For the nine months ended March 31 , net sales decreased to $26,978,082 in 2012 compared with $31,252,603 in 2011 .  This $ 4,274,521 decrease in net sales was primarily driven by lower sales to several overseas distributors and to a large mass retailer in the United States.  Including the unauthorized transaction related costs and recoveries, net of expenses, the Company had income from operations of $ 2,588,895 for the nine months ended March 31, 2012 , compared to income from operations of $ 4,472,439 for the nine months ended March 31, 2011 .  The decreased income from operations was primarily driven by the decline in sales, a decrease in the gross profit percentage from 41.5% to 38.1% , and higher selling, general and administrative expenses.  These negative effects were partially offset by insurance and other unauthorized transaction related recoveries exceeding legal fees by $ 1,137,036 during the nine months ended March 31, 2012 compared to a net cost of $ 94,640 for the nine months ended March 31, 2011 .  Operating income, excluding the unauthorized transactions and related costs and recoveries, was $ 1,451,859 or 5.4% of net sales for the nine months ended March 31, 2012 compared to $ 4,567,079 or 14.6% of net sales for the nine months ended March 31, 2011 .


Results of Operations
Three Months Ended March 31, 2012 to Three Months Ended March 31, 2011
Net Sales and Gross Profit
Net sales for the three months ended March 31, 2012 totaled $ 8,232,526 compared with $ 8,419,663 in the three months ended March 31, 2011 .  This $ 187,137 or 2.2% decrease in net sales was primarily driven by lower sales to a large mass retailer in the United States.  The decline in sales to the U.S. retail market reflects the increased number of competitors in this space and product placement within key retailers.  Sales to European distributors, which were lower in the first six months of the year as compared to the same six months last year, rebounded in the three months ended March 31, 2012 to be slightly higher than the same period last year. The Company introduced new products late in the quarter ended March 31, 2012 with additional products scheduled to be introduced in the quarter ended June 30, 2012. It is uncertain if these sales declines will continue or if new customer sales and new products will offset the declines in the future.
Gross profit for the three months ended March 31, 2012 was $ 3,151,534 or 38.3% of net sales compared to $ 3,393,470 or 40.3% of net sales for the three months ended March 31, 2011 .  The decreased gross margin percentage for the three months ended March 31, 2012 was primarily due to approximately $216,000 of increased costs related to products purchased from suppliers based in China. The Company has taken actions to offset the cost increases through less expensive sources, selective price increases, and new product introductions. The Company intends to take additional steps to minimize the impact of these increased costs.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2012 were $ 3,017,502 as compared to $ 2,705,534 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 . The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses was primarily due to spending on new product development and marketing related to products released in the three months ended

12

March 31, 2012 as well as products scheduled to be introduced in the three months ending June 30, 2012. The Company spent $287,000 more on new product development in the three months ended March 31, 2012 than in the same period last year. In addition, the Company attended a major industry trade show in January 2012. Spending on the industry trade show in January 2012 was approximately $150,000. These increased costs were partially offset by $97,000 less in expenses for outside professional services and $17,000 less in profit-based compensation expense.

Unauthorized Transactions
For the three months ended March 31, 2012 , the Company recorded a net recovery of $ 617,103 for unauthorized transaction related costs and recoveries. This included $136,972 of legal fees for legal actions related to the unauthorized transactions.  In the three months ended March 31, 2012 , the Company received $640,384 of forfeiture proceeds from the sale of certain assets seized from Ms. Sachdeva, $59,708 of insurance recoveries, and $53,983 of additional proceeds from the sale of Ms. Sachdeva's shares held in the Koss Employee Stock Ownership Trust. For the three months ended March 31, 2011 , the Company recorded a net recovery of $ 376,544 for unauthorized transaction related costs and recoveries.   Included in the net recovery for the three months ended March 31, 2011 was $996,001 of insurance recoveries and $208,895 of bonus reimbursement by the CEO.
Operating Income
For the three months ended March 31, 2012 , the Company had operating income, including the unauthorized transaction related costs and recoveries, of $ 751,135 compared to an operating income, including the unauthorized transaction related costs and recoveries, of $ 1,064,480 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 .  The decrease in operating income was primarily the result of lower sales and a decrease in gross profit percentage, caused primarily by higher costs of goods sourced from suppliers in China.  Increased spending on new product development and marketing also resulted in lower operating income in the quarter. Operating income, excluding the unauthorized transactions and related costs and recoveries, was $ 134,032 for the three months ended March 31, 2012 or 1.6% of net sales, compared to $ 687,936 or 8.2% of net sales for the three months ended March 31, 2011 .

Interest Expense
In the three months ended March 31, 2012 , the Company reversed $232,579 of interest expense related to the tax positions on the unauthorized transactions. The Company concluded the open examination by the state of Wisconsin and the statute of limitations closed on other open years.
Provision for Income Taxes
Income tax provision for the three months ended March 31, 2012 was $ 96,441 compared to $ 326,985 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 .  The effective income tax rate was 9.7% and 33.8% for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 , respectively.   The effective tax rate was lower for the three months ended March 31, 2012 due to the recognition of benefits from returns as filed partially offset by an increase in the valuation allowance.
Nine Months Ended March 31, 2012 to Nine Months Ended March 31, 2011
Net Sales and Gross Profit
Net sales for the nine months ended March 31, 2012 totaled $ 26,978,082 compared with $ 31,252,603 in the nine months ended March 31, 2011 .  This $ 4,274,521 or 13.7% decrease in net sales was primarily driven by lower sales to several overseas distributors and to a large mass retailer in the United States.  The decrease in sales to the overseas distributors appears to be caused in part by the difficult economy in Europe. The decline in sales to the U.S. retail market reflects the increased number of competitors in this space.  Additions of new customers and products have not yet offset these declines. The Company introduced new products late in the nine months ended March 31, 2012 with additional products scheduled to be introduced in the quarter ending June 30, 2012. It is uncertain if these sales declines will continue or if new customer sales and new products will offset the declines in the future.
Gross profit for the nine months ended March 31, 2012 was $ 10,279,281 or 38.1% of net sales compared to $ 12,966,042 or 41.5% of net sales for the nine months ended March 31, 2011 .  The decreased gross margin percentage for the nine months ended March 31, 2012 was primarily due to approximately $961,000 of increased costs related to products sourced from suppliers based in China. The Company is working to offset the cost increases through less expensive sources, selective price increases, and new product introductions.

13

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the nine months ended March 31, 2012 were $ 8,827,422 as compared to $ 8,398,963 for the nine months ended March 31, 2011 .  The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses was primarily the result of increased new product development and marketing expenses, in preparation for new product launches. Several new products were introduced during the quarter ended March 31, 2012. Additional new products are scheduled to be introduced in the quarter ending June 30, 2012. The Company spent approximately $836,000 more on new product development in the nine months ended March 31, 2012 than in the same period last year. In addition, the Company attended a major industry trade show in January 2012. Approximately $183,000 more was spent on trade shows in the nine months ended March 31, 2012 than during the same period last year. These costs were partially offset by a decline in professional fees of approximately $714,000 and a $182,000 decline in profit-based compensation expense in the nine months ended March 31, 2012.


Unauthorized Transactions
For the nine months ended March 31, 2012 , the Company recorded a net recovery of $ 1,137,036 for unauthorized transaction related costs and recoveries, including $814,145 of legal costs for defense of certain actions and certain claims initiated against third parties.  Included in the net recovery for the nine months ended March 31, 2012 was $838,867 of insurance recoveries, a $242,419 bonus reimbursement by Michael J. Koss, and $640,384 of proceeds received from the forfeiture of certain assets seized from Ms. Sachdeva, the former VP of Finance. The recoveries also included $175,528 of additional proceeds from the forfeiture of Ms. Sachdeva's 401(k) account and $53,983 of proceeds from the sale of Ms. Sachdeva's shares held in the Koss Employee Stock Ownership Trust. For the nine months ended March 31, 2011 , the Company incurred a net cost of $ 94,640 for unauthorized transaction related costs and recoveries.   Included in the net cost for the nine months ended March 31, 2011 , was $1,932,064 of insurance recoveries, which included $208,895 of bonus reimbursement by the CEO.
Operating Income
For the nine months ended March 31, 2012 , the Company had operating income, including the unauthorized transaction related costs and recoveries, of $ 2,588,895 compared to an operating income, including the unauthorized transaction related costs and recoveries, of $ 4,472,439 for the nine months ended March 31, 2011 .  The decrease in operating income was primarily the result of lower sales, a decrease in gross profit percentage, caused by higher costs for products manufactured in China, and costs related to new product development and marketing.  There were also increased costs from attending a major industry trade show in January 2012. These costs were partially offset by lower professional fees and lower profit-based compensation. Operating income, excluding the unauthorized transactions and related costs and recoveries, was $ 1,451,859 for the nine months ended March 31, 2012 or 5.4% of net sales, compared to $ 4,567,079 or 14.6% of net sales for the nine months ended March 31, 2011 .

Interest Expense
In the nine months ended March 31, 2012 , the Company reversed $293,305 of interest expense related to the tax positions on the unauthorized transactions. In the three months ended March 31, 2012, the Company concluded the open examination by the state of Wisconsin and the statute of limitations closed on other open years.
Provision for Income Taxes
Income tax provision for the nine months ended March 31, 2012 was $ 757,854 as compared to a tax provision of $ 1,577,988 for the nine months ended March 31, 2011 .  The effective income tax rate was 27.4% and 37.9% for the nine months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 , respectively.   The effective tax rate was lower for the nine months ended March 31, 2012 due to the recognition of benefits from returns as filed partially offset by an increase in the valuation allowance.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Operating Activities
For the nine months ended March 31, 2012 , cash provided by operations was $ 2,877,763 , as compared to $ 901,865 for the nine months ended March 31, 2011 .  This change was primarily due to a reduction in accounts receivable during the nine months ended March 31, 2012.

14

Working capital was $ 7,808,372 at March 31, 2012 and $ 7,942,576 at June 30, 2011 .  The net decrease in working capital of $ 134,204 from June 30, 2011 primarily represents the decrease in accounts receivable which was partially offset by an increase in inventory.  Inventory increased $ 1,285,818 for the nine months ended March 31, 2012 primarily due to the decline in sales that caused some product overstock and stocking of product for new product introductions.    The decrease in accrued liabilities was caused by lower accrued interest due to settlement of the Wisconsin income tax audit and statute of limitations expiring. In addition, there was lower profit based compensation accruals at March 31, 2012 .  As of March 31, 2012 , the Company had open commitments of approximately $553,000 for software and new product development.

Investing Activities
Cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended March 31, 2012 was $ 1,690,027 as compared to $ 1,860,616 for the nine months ended March 31, 2011 .  Cash used in investing activities for both periods was largely due to life insurance premiums paid and expenditures for product software development costs, leasehold improvements and tooling to support production.

Financing Activities
Net cash used by financing activities was $ 1,228,887 for the nine months ended March 31, 2012 compared to net cash provided of $ 966,124 for the nine months ended March 31, 2011 .  For the nine months ended March 31, 2012 , the Company received $ 100,000 from borrowing on its line of credit facility offset by $ 1,328,887 of dividend payments.  For the nine months ended March 31, 2011 , there was borrowing of $ 2,350,000 on the line of credit facility offset by dividend payments of $ 1,328,887 .   The Company intends to continue to pay its regular quarterly dividends for the foreseeable future.
For the nine months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 , there were no purchases of common stock and no stock options were exercised.
Liquidity
In addition to capital expenditures for tooling and continued software development, the Company has interest payments on its line of credit facility and planned normal quarterly dividend payments.  The Company believes that cash generated from operations, together with borrowings available under its line of credit facility, provide it with adequate liquidity to meet operating requirements, debt service requirements, planned capital expenditures, software development and dividend payments.  The long-term outlook for the Company is positive and management continually reevaluates new product offerings, inventory levels and capital expenditures to ensure that it is effectively allocating resources in line with current market conditions.
Credit Facilities
On May 12, 2010, the Company entered into a secured credit facility with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (“Lender”).  The Credit Agreement dated May 12, 2010 between the Company and the Lender (“Credit Agreement”) provides for an $8,000,000 revolving secured credit facility and for letters of credit for the benefit of the Company of up to a sublimit of $2,000,000.  The Credit Agreement expires on July 31, 2013.  The Company and the Lender also entered into the Pledge and Security Agreement under which the Company granted the Lender a security interest in substantially all of the Company’s assets in connection with the Company’s obligations under the Credit Agreement.  The balance outstanding on this facility was $ 1,500,000 as of March 31, 2012 .
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
The Company has no other off-balance sheet arrangements other than the lease for the facility in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, which it leases from its Chairman, John C. Koss.  On August 15, 2007, the lease was renewed for a period of five years, and is being accounted for as an operating lease.  The lease extension maintained the rent at a fixed rate of $380,000 per year.  Management believes the lease is on terms no less favorable to the Company than those that could be obtained from an independent party.  The Company is responsible for all property maintenance, insurance, taxes, and other normal expenses related to ownership.  All facilities are in good repair and, in the opinion of management, are suitable and adequate for the Company’s business purposes.

Controls and Procedures
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) are designed to ensure that (1) information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms; and (2) that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the principal executive officer and principal financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.  There are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any system of disclosure controls and procedures, including the possibility of human error, the circumvention or overriding of controls and procedures, and collusion to circumvent and conceal the overriding of controls and procedures.  Accordingly, even effective disclosure controls and procedures can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives.
The Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2012 .  As discussed in “Changes in Internal Controls” section of the Company’s Form 10-K for the period ended June 30, 2010, and the Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2010, the Company implemented remedial measures in response to the previously disclosed unauthorized transactions. The Company implemented a new business system in the quarter ended September 30, 2011.  Although the Company’s management believes that these remedial measures and new business system have addressed the weaknesses in the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures, the Company must allow a sufficient amount of time to elapse to permit testing of these controls, including the controls related to the new business system to confirm their effectiveness.  Once that testing is completed, management believes the disclosure controls and procedures will be deemed effective.  However, as a result of the Company’s inability to complete the testing and confirmation process, management has concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2012 were not effective.
Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting
The Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f)) is designed to provide reasonable assurances regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.  However, 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 the Company have been detected.  The Company implemented a new business system in the quarter ended September 30, 2011.  There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the Company’s most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
