Unless the context otherwise requires, the terms “Company”, “we”, “us” and “our” used herein refer to Amerigon Incorporated. The term “historical Amerigon” used herein excludes W.E.T. Automotive Systems AG (“W.E.T.”), a majority-owned subsidiary of Amerigon. One of the Company’s primary automotive seat comfort products is the Climate Control Seat™ (“CCS™”), which provides year-round comfort by providing both heating and cooling to seat occupants. The Company has shipped approximately 9,279 units of its CCS product through March 31 2012.

The Company is engaged in a program to improve the efficiency of TEDs and to develop, market and distribute new products based on this technology. Included in this initiative is the development and testing of new materials that show increased thermoelectric efficiency.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring items, considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The balance sheet as of December 31, 2011 was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Operating results for the three month period ended March 31, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2012. It is suggested that theses condensed financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2011 included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities .

In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-11 which amends Topic 210 (Balance Sheet). ASU No. 2011-11 is intended to enhance the disclosure requirements for offsetting (netting) assets and liabilities and the effect or potential effect on an entity’s financial position, including the effect or potential effect of rights of setoff associated with certain financial and derivative instruments. The amendments in ASU No. 2011-11 include quantitative disclosure requirements to be presented in tabular format. The tabular disclosure components are as follows:

ASU No. 2011-11 is to be applied retrospectively upon adoption and is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013, and interim periods within those annual periods. While the adoption of ASU No. 2011-11 is not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated condensed financial statements, it could expand our disclosures around certain financial and derivative instruments.

Basic earnings per common share are computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of stock outstanding.

The Company’s diluted earnings per common share give effect to all potential shares of Common Stock outstanding during a period that are not anti-dilutive. In computing the diluted earnings per share, the treasury stock and if converted methods are used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the conversion of Common Stock equivalents. The following summarizes the amounts included in the dilutive shares as disclosed on the face of the consolidated condensed statements of operations:

The accompanying table represents Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of certain stock options, the Series C Convertible Preferred Stock and potential dividends paid in common stock that have been excluded from the diluted shares calculation because the effect of their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.

Segment information is used by management for making operating decisions and assessing the performance of the Company. Management evaluates the performance of its segments based primarily on operating income.

The Company’s reportable segments are as follows:

The tables below present segment information about the reported product revenues and operating income of the Company for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011. Amerigon acquired its equity interest in W.E.T. during the second quarter of 2011; consequently, no segment information is reported below for W.E.T. for the three months ended March 31, 2011. Asset information by segment is not reported since the Company does not manage assets at a segment level at this time.

The Advanced Technology operating loss for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 is net of $442 and $192, respectively, of reimbursed research and development costs. Reconciling items include historical Amerigon’s corporate selling, general and administrative costs and, for March 31, 2011 only, acquisition transaction costs.

On March 31, 2011, we issued 7,000 shares of our Series C Convertible Preferred Stock (each a “Preferred Share” and, collectively, the “Preferred Shares”) having an initial stated value of $10,000 per Preferred Share, subject to adjustment.

The Series C Convertible Preferred Stock is to be redeemed in nine equal quarterly installments that began on September 1, 2011 and will end on September 1, 2013 (each, an “Amortization Date”) by paying cash, issuing shares of our Common Stock or any combination thereof for $10,000 per Preferred Share plus accumulated and unpaid dividends. Total Series C Convertible Preferred Stock installments made during the three month period ended are as follows:

The following table summarizes the Series C Preferred Stock activity during the three months ended March 31, 2012:

On March 30, 2012, the Company entered into the fourth amendment (the “Amendment”) to the US Bank of America credit facility. The amendment removed a requirement that previously obligated Amerigon to make prepayments on its outstanding indebtedness equal to the net proceeds received from the sale of Amerigon common stock in excess of the future obligations owed to the holders of Amerigon’s Series C 8% convertible preferred stock. The amendment permits Amerigon to retain any such excess amounts for general corporate purposes.

We are exposed to market risk from changes in foreign currency exchange rates, short term interest rates and price fluctuations of certain material commodities such as copper. Foreign currency exchange risks are attributable to sales to foreign customers not denominated in the seller’s functional currency, foreign plant operations, intercompany indebtedness and purchases from foreign suppliers and include exposures to the European Euro, Japanese Yen, Canadian Dollar, and Mexican Peso. The Company regularly enters into derivative contracts with the objective of managing its financial and operational exposure arising from this risk by offsetting gains and losses on the underlying exposures with gains and losses on the financial instruments used to hedge them. We do not enter into derivative financial instruments for speculative or trading purposes. Our hedging relationships are formally documented at the inception of the hedge, and hedges must be highly effective in offsetting changes to future cash flows on hedged transactions both at the inception of a hedge and on an ongoing basis to be designated for hedge accounting treatment. We record the ineffective portion of hedging instruments, if any, to other income (expense) in the consolidated condensed statements of operations.

In July, 2011, the Company entered into a series of interest rate swap contracts and a interest rate cap agreement designated as cash flow hedges in order to hedge the exposure to variable market interest rates on the Company’s senior debt. Gains and losses reported in accumulated other comprehensive income will be reclassified to earnings once the Company’s senior debt is repaid. Information on the interest rate swap contracts is as follows:
