AMERICAN SHARED HOSPITAL SERVICES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
 
 
Note 1. Basis of Presentation
 
In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly American Shared Hospital Services’ consolidated financial position as of September 30, 2013 and the results of its operations for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, which results are not necessarily indicative of results on an annualized basis.  Consolidated balance sheet amounts as of December 31, 2012 have been derived from audited financial statements.
 
These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2012 included in the Company’s 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
 
These financial statements include the accounts of American Shared Hospital Services (the “Company”) and its wholly-owned subsidiaries:  OR21, Inc. (“OR21”); MedLeader.com, Inc. (“MedLeader”); and American Shared Radiosurgery Services (“ASRS”); ASRS’ majority-owned subsidiary, GK Financing, LLC (“GKF”); GKF’s wholly-owned subsidiaries, GK Financing U.K., Limited (“GKUK”) and Instituto de Gamma Knife del Pacifico S.A.C. (“GKPeru”); ASHS’ majority owned subsidiary, Long Beach Equipment, LLC (“LBE”), GKF’s majority owned subsidiaries, Albuquerque GK Equipment, LLC (“AGKE”), Jacksonville GK Equipment, LLC (“JGKE”) and EWRS, LLC (“EWRS”), and EWRS’ wholly owned subsidiary, EWRS Tibbi Cihazlar Ticaret Ltd Sti (“EWRS Turkey”).
 
The Company through its majority-owned subsidiary, GKF, provided Gamma Knife units to nineteen medical centers as of September 30, 2013 in the states of Arkansas, California, Connecticut, Florida, Illinois, Massachusetts, Mississippi, Nevada, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, Tennessee, Oklahoma, Ohio, Texas and Wisconsin, and in Turkey.
 
GKF also provides radiation therapy equipment to the radiation therapy department at the Gamma Knife site in Turkey.  The Company also directly provides radiation therapy and related equipment, including Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy (“IMRT”), Image Guided Radiation Therapy (“IGRT”) and a CT Simulator to the radiation therapy department at an existing Gamma Knife site in the United States.
 
The Company formed the subsidiaries GKUK, GKPeru, EWRS and EWRS Turkey for the purposes of expanding its business internationally into the United Kingdom, Peru and Turkey; LBE to provide proton beam therapy services in Long Beach, California; and AGKE and JGKE to provide Gamma Knife services in Albuquerque, New Mexico and Jacksonville, Florida.  AGKE and EWRS Turkey began operation in the second quarter 2011 and JGKE began operation in the fourth quarter 2011.  GKPeru is expected to begin operation in the latter part of 2014.  GKUK is inactive and LBE is not expected to begin operations in 2013.

During 2012 and 2013, the Company’s partner in its Turkey operation, its partners in the Jacksonville Gamma Knife operation and the Albuquerque Gamma Knife operation have made investments in EWRS, JGKE, and AGKE respectively. These investments are included in the line item “Non-controlling interests in subsidiaries” in the Company’s financial statements.
 
Based on guidance provided in accordance with ASC 830, Foreign Currency Matters (“ASC 830”), the Company analyzes its operations outside the United States to determine the functional currency of each operation.  Management has determined that these operations are initially accounted for in U.S. Dollars since the primary transactions incurred are in U.S. Dollars and the Company provides significant funding towards the startup of the operation.  When Management determines that an operation has become self-sufficient, the Company may change its accounting for the operation to the local currency from the U.S. Dollar, depending on the facts and circumstances. The Company determined that effective in the third quarter 2012, the functional currency for its Turkish operation, EWRS Turkey, was the Turkish Lira.  Therefore, in accordance with ASC 830, EWRS Turkey’s balance sheet accounts were translated at rates in accordance with guidance provided under ASC 830, and accumulated gains and losses and translation differences were recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), which is a separate component of equity.
 
As of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, EWRS Turkey’s balance sheet accounts were translated at rates in effect as of those dates, respectively, and income and expense accounts were translated at the weighted average rates of exchange during those respective periods. Translation adjustments resulting from this process were also recognized under accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).  Gains and losses from foreign currency transactions are listed in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations.  The Company recorded a net foreign currency loss of $306,000 and $840,000 for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2013, respectively, and a net foreign currency gain of approximately $133,000 for the year ended December 31, 2012.
 
Based on guidance provided in accordance with 280 Segment Reporting (“ASC 280”), the Company has analyzed the factors that define an operating segment and determined that there is only one operating segment.  The nineteen locations are aggregated into one reportable segment because, in the Company’s judgment, these operating segments have similar historical economic characteristics and are expected to have similar economic characteristics in the future. Furthermore, each operating segment utilizes the same business model and technologies, servicing the same end users (radiation therapy patients).  All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Note 2.                   Per Share Amounts
 
Per share information has been computed based on the weighted average number of common shares and dilutive common share equivalents outstanding.  For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 basic earnings per share was computed using 4,609,000 common shares, and diluted earnings per share was computed using 4,612,000 and 4,613,000 common shares and equivalents, respectively.  For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 basic earnings per share was computed using 4,606,000 and 4,610,000 common shares respectively and diluted earnings per share was computed using 4,630,000 and 4,635,000 common shares and equivalents, respectively.
 
The computation for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2013 excluded approximately 580,000 of the Company’s stock options because the exercise price of the options was higher than the average market price during those periods.  The computation for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2012 excluded approximately 310,000 of the Company’s stock options because the exercise price of the options was higher than the average market price during the periods.

Note 3.
Stock-based Compensation
 
On June 2, 2010, the Company’s shareholders approved an amendment and restatement of the 2006 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2006 Plan”). Among other things, the amendment and restatement renamed the 2006 Plan to the Incentive Compensation Plan (the “Plan”) and increased the number of shares of the Company’s common stock reserved for issuance under the Plan by an additional 880,000 shares from 750,000 shares to 1,630,000 shares. The shares are reserved for issuance to officers of the Company, other key employees, non-employee directors, and advisors. The Plan serves as successor to the Company’s previous two stock-based employee compensation plans, the 1995 and 2001 Stock Option Plans. The shares reserved under those two plans, including the shares of common stock subject to currently outstanding options under the plans, were transferred to the Plan, and no further grants or share issuances will be made under the 1995 and 2001 Plans. Under the Plan, there have been 115,000 restricted stock units granted, consisting primarily of annual automatic grants and deferred compensation to non-employee directors, and there are 609,000 options granted, of which 576,000 options are vested as of September 30, 2013.
 
Compensation expense associated with the Company’s stock-based awards to employees is calculated using the Black-Scholes valuation model. The Company’s stock-based awards have characteristics significantly different from those of traded options, and changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimates. The estimated fair value of the Company’s option grants is estimated using assumptions for expected life, volatility, dividend yield, and risk-free interest rate which are specific to each award. The estimated fair value of the Company’s options is amortized over the period during which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award, usually the vesting period. Accordingly, stock-based compensation cost before income tax effect in the amount of $11,000 and $69,000 is reflected in net income for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2013, compared to $3,000 and $62,000 in the same periods in the prior year, respectively. There were 3,500 options issued and no options exercised during the three month period ended September 30, 2013. There were 21,500 options issued and no options exercised during the nine month period ended September 30, 2013. There were no excess income tax benefits to report.

Note 4.
Common Stock Investment
 
                As of September 30, 2013 the Company has a $2,701,000 investment in the common stock of Mevion Medical Systems, Inc. (“Mevion”), formerly Still River Systems, Inc., representing an approximate 0.77% interest in Mevion. At December 31, 2012 the investment was $2,687,000 which represented a 1.0% interest in the convertible preferred stock of Mevion. The Company’s investment was converted to common stock in April 2013 when it declined to participate in a new financing round. Therefore the Company’s investment was converted from preferred stock to common stock in April 2013. The Company accounts for this investment under the cost method.
 
In June 2013 Mevion announced that it had secured a $55 million round of financing which will be used to accelerate the manufacturing and deployment of the Mevion S250. The funds were raised from existing equity investors, as well as from debt financing. The Company invested an additional $14,000 in this round.
 
The Company reviews its investment for impairment on a quarterly basis, or as events or circumstances might indicate that the carrying value of the investment may not be recoverable. The Company evaluated this investment for impairment at December 31, 2012 and reviewed it at September 30, 2013 in light of both current market conditions and the ongoing needs of Mevion to raise cash to continue its development of the first compact, single room PBRT system. Based on its analysis, the Company estimates that there is currently an unrealized loss (impairment) of approximately $2.4 million.
 
In assessing whether the impairment is other than temporary, we evaluated the length of time and extent to which market value has been below cost, the financial condition and near term prospects of Mevion and our ability and intent to retain our investment for a period sufficient to allow for an anticipated recovery in the market value. Although the investment is not without risk, and the manufacture of the first unit has taken longer than originally anticipated, the Company believes that the current market value is a temporary situation brought on solely due to the delays in treating the first clinical patient.
 
During the second quarter of 2012, Mevion announced that it had received FDA 510(k) clearance for its MEVION S250 system, which enables users of the system to treat patients immediately upon completion of system installation. Mevion had previously announced that it had received the CE Mark certification which enables Mevion to market, sell and install these systems through the European Union and any country that recognizes the CE Mark. Based on the continuing progress being made by Mevion toward the manufacture and installation of the first single room PBRT system, the Company believes that our investment in Mevion is not other than temporarily impaired, and the fair value will increase so that the carrying value will be recovered.

Note 5.
Line of Credit
 
The Company has a $9,000,000 renewable line of credit with a bank that has been in place since June 2004 and has a maturity date of August 1, 2015.  The line of credit is drawn on from time to time as needed for equipment purchases and working capital.  Amounts drawn against the line of credit are at an interest rate per year equal to the Bank’s prime rate minus 0.5 percentage point, or alternately, at the Company’s discretion, the LIBOR rate plus 1.0 percentage point, and are secured by the Company’s cash invested with the Bank.  The Company is in compliance with all debt covenants under the agreement.  The weighted average interest rate during the first nine months of 2013 was 1.44%.  At September 30, 2013, $8,740,000 was borrowed against the line of credit, compared to $8,550,000 at December 31, 2012.

Note 6.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
 
The Company’s disclosures of the fair value of financial instruments is based on a fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs to the valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three levels.  Level 1 inputs are unadjusted quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date.  Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.  Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for assets or liabilities, and reflect the Company’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.
 
The estimated fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities as of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 were as follows (in thousands):

Note 7.
Repurchase of Common Stock
 
In 1999 and 2001, the Board of Directors approved resolutions authorizing the Company to repurchase up to a total of 1,000,000 shares of its own stock on the open market, which the Board reaffirmed in 2008.  There were no shares repurchased in the first nine months of 2013.  In 2012, the Company repurchased 9,000 shares at an average price of $3.26 per share.  There are approximately 72,000 shares remaining under this repurchase authorization.

 
Note 8.
Income Taxes
 
We generally calculate our effective income tax rate at the end of an interim period using an estimate of the annual effective income tax rate expected to be applicable for the full fiscal year.  However, when a reliable estimate of the annual effective income tax rate cannot be made, we compute our provision for income taxes using the actual effective income tax rate for the year-to-date period.  Our effective income tax rate is highly influenced by the amount of the nondeductible stock-based compensation associated with grants of our common stock options.  A small change in estimated annual pretax income (loss) can produce a significant variance in the annual effective income tax rate given the expected amount of these items.  Because of this variability, a reliable estimate of the annual effective income tax rate for 2013 cannot be made.  As a result, we have computed our provision (benefit) for income taxes for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2013 by applying the actual effective tax rate to income (loss) for the period.

Reclassification
 
Certain comparative amounts in the consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current quarter’s presentation.

Item 2.
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations 
 
This quarterly report to the Securities and Exchange Commission may be deemed to contain certain forward-looking statements with respect to the financial condition, results of operations and future plans of American Shared Hospital Services, which involve risks and uncertainties including, but not limited to, the risks of the Gamma Knife and radiation therapy businesses, the risks of developing The Operating Room for the 21st Century® program, and the risks of investing in a development-stage company, Mevion, without a proven product. Further information on potential factors that could affect the financial condition, results of operations and future plans of American Shared Hospital Services is included in the filings of the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 and the definitive Proxy Statement for the Annual Meeting of Shareholders held on June 11, 2013.
 
The Company had nineteen Gamma Knife units in operation on September 30, 2013 and eighteen Gamma Knife units in operation on September 30, 2012. Four of the Company’s customer contracts are through subsidiaries where GKF or its subsidiary is the majority owner and managing partner. Eleven of the Company’s nineteen current Gamma Knife customers are under fee-per-use contracts, and eight customers are under retail arrangements. The Company’s two contracts to provide radiation therapy and related equipment services to existing Gamma Knife customers are considered retail arrangements. Retail arrangements are further classified as either turn-key or revenue sharing. Revenue from fee per use contracts is recorded on a gross basis as determined by each hospital’s contracted rate. Under turn-key arrangements, the Company receives payment from the hospital in the amount of its reimbursement from third party payors, and is responsible for paying all the operating costs of the equipment. Revenue is recorded on a gross basis and estimated based on historical experience of that hospital’s contracts with third party payors. For revenue sharing arrangements the Company receives a contracted percentage of the reimbursement received by the hospital. The gross amount the Company expects to receive is recorded as revenue and estimated based on historical experience.

In July 2013, The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid (“CMS”) proposed to reimburse hospitals for a complete course of treatment comprised of a single session of Stereotactic Radiosurgery (“SRS”) at $8,576 effective January 1, 2014. In August 2013, CMS revised its proposed SRS rate to $5,615. This payment level would apply to single session treatment for all forms of SRS – Cobalt-60 SRS (Gamma Knife), robotic linear accelerator (LINAC) SRS or non-robotic LINAC SRS. By comparison, effective April 1, 2013, the Gamma Knife was reimbursed by CMS at $3,300 and during the period January 1, 2013 to March 31, 2013 at $7,910. The CMS proposed 2014 reimbursement rate is subject to comments from interested parties, and could change. Final CMS reimbursement rates are anticipated to be issued in late November 2013.
 
Medical services revenue increased by $160,000 and $724,000 to $4,396,000 and $13,647,000 for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2013 from $4,236,000 and $12,923,000 for the three and nine month periods ended June 30, 2012, respectively. The increases for both the three and nine month periods are primarily due to two new contracts that began operation in the second quarter 2012 and first quarter 2013, and increased volume at the Company’s existing Gamma Knife sites. The increase in Gamma Knife revenue was offset by a decrease in radiation therapy revenue. The decrease was due to a decline in volume at the existing radiation therapy sites. Revenue from the Company’s radiation therapy contracts decreased for the three and nine month period by $89,000 and $318,000 to $361,000 and $1,099,000, respectively. 
 
The number of Gamma Knife procedures increased by 70 and 171 to 632 and 1,918 for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2013 from 523 and 1,564 in the same periods in the prior year, respectively. The increase is primarily due to the start of operations of two new Gamma Knife sites, one in the second quarter of 2012, and one in the first quarter of 2013. For the three and nine month period, volume at the Company’s sites where Perfexion units have been installed increased by 18% and 23% respectively. Much of this increase is due to addition of new Perfexion units.
 
Total costs of revenue increased by $274,000 and $537,000 to $2,815,000 and $8,055,000 for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2013 from $2,541,000 and $7,518,000 for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2012, respectively. Maintenance and supplies increased by $87,000 and $215,000 for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2013 compared to the same periods in the prior year, due to higher contract maintenance expense for Gamma Knife units. Depreciation and amortization increased by $83,000 and $177,000 for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2013 compared to the same periods in the prior year, primarily due to the start of two new sites that began operation in the second quarter 2012 and first quarter 2013. Furthermore, there were two upgrades performed at existing sites during the first and second quarters of 2013. Other direct operating costs increased by $104,000 and $145,000 for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2013 compared to the same periods in the prior year. The increase for the three month period is due to higher property taxes and retail operating costs. For the nine month period, the increase is primarily due to higher property taxes and marketing costs.

Selling and administrative costs decreased by $73,000 for the three month period ended September 30, 2013 to $887,000 from $960,000 in the three month period ended September 30, 2012, and increased $182,000 for the nine month period ended September 30, 2013 to $3,275,000 from $3,093,000 for the nine month period ended September 30, 2013. For the three month period the decrease is due to lower salary expense, office rent and travel expense. This reduction was offset by higher marketing expenses. For the nine month period the increase was primarily due to higher marketing expenses, legal and consulting fees and rent expense, partially offset by reduced travel costs. The higher rent expense is due to accrued rent expense of approximately $115,000 in the first quarter 2013, relating to a sublease of a portion of the Company’s office space. The rent accrual is required because the Company subleased a portion of its existing office space through the remainder of its lease term at a rate lower than its lease rate, which resulted in a cumulative loss through the remainder of the lease term.
 
Interest expense increased by $7,000 to $532,000 for the three month period ended September 30, 2013 from $525,000 for the same period ended September 30, 2012. Interest expense increased due to the new unit that began operation in the second quarter. For the nine month period ended September 30, 2013, interest expense decreased by $179,000 to $1,459,000 from $1,638,000 for the nine month period ended September 30, 2012. For the nine month periods, lower interest expense was driven by lower expense related to the more mature units. The mature units have lower interest expense because interest expense decreases as the outstanding principal balance of each loan is reduced.
 
Interest and other income increased by $1,000 to a gain of $11,000 for the three month period ended September 30, 2013. For the nine months interest and other income decreased by $6,000 to a gain of $19,000 for the nine month period ended September 30, 2013. For the nine month period, the decrease was primarily due to the write off of net book value for disposed assets of $20,000 in second quarter 2013.
 
The loss from foreign currency transactions was $306,000 for the three month period ended September 30, 2013 and $840,000 for the nine month period ended September 30, 2013 due to unfavorable exchange rate variances.
 
The Company had income tax expense of $0 and of $40,000 for the three and nine month period ended September 30, 2013, respectively, compared to income tax expense of $28,000 and $52,000 for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2012, respectively. The nine month period ended September 30, 2013 included an estimate for state income taxes of $27,000.

Net income attributable to non-controlling interest decreased by $182,000 and $387,000 to $1,000 and $227,000 for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2013 from $183,000 and $614,000 for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2012. Non-controlling interest primarily represents the 19% interest of GK Financing owned by a third party, as well as non-controlling interests in subsidiaries of GK Financing owned by third parties that began operations in 2011. Variances in net income attributable to non-controlling interest represent the relative increase or decrease in profitability of GKF and these ventures. For the three and nine month periods, the decrease in net income attributable to non-controlling interest was primarily due to the loss on unfavorable exchange rate variances.
 
The Company had a net loss of $134,000, or ($0.03) per diluted share, and $230,000, or ($0.05) per diluted share, for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2013, compared to net income of $9,000, or $0.00 per diluted share, and $33,000, or $0.01 per diluted share, in the same periods in the prior year, respectively. For the three and nine month period, the decrease in net income was primarily due to the loss on unfavorable exchange rate variances.
 
Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
The Company had cash and cash equivalents of $1,955,000 at September 30, 2013 compared to $1,564,000 at December 31, 2012.  The Company’s cash position increased by $391,000 due to an increase of cash from operating activities of $6,240,000, capital contributions of $139,000, net advances on the Company’s line of credit with a bank of $190,000 and long term debt financing on the purchase of equipment of $3,109,000. These increases were offset by payments for the purchase of property and equipment of $3,293,000, principal payments on long term debt and capital leases of $5,500,000, distributions to non-controlling interests of $480,000, and investment in convertible preferred stock of $14,000. 
 
As of September 30, 2013, the Company has a $9,000,000 principal investment in a certificate of deposit with a bank at an interest rate of 0.10% and a maturity date in August 2014.  At maturity date, the Company intends to roll over the certificate of deposit.
 
The Company has a two year renewable $9,000,000 line of credit with a bank, available as needed for equipment purchases and working capital.  Amounts drawn against the line of credit are secured by the Company’s cash invested with the bank.  At September 30, 2013 there was $8,740,000 drawn against the line of credit, compared to $8,550,000 at December 31, 2012.
 
The Company has scheduled interest and principal payments under its debt obligations of approximately $5,290,000 and scheduled capital lease payments of approximately $4,790,000 during the next 12 months.  The Company believes that its cash flow from operations and cash resources are adequate to meet its scheduled debt and capital lease obligations during the next 12 months.
 
The Company as of September 30, 2013 had shareholders’ equity of $24,444,000, working capital of $5,330,000 and total assets of $72,154,000.

Commitments
 
The Company has a $2,701,000 common stock investment in Mevion, a development stage company, which is considered a long-term investment on the balance sheet and is recorded at cost.  As of September 30, 2013, the Company also has $3,000,000 in non-refundable deposits toward the purchase of three MEVION S250 proton beam radiation therapy (PBRT) systems from Mevion. The Company has entered into an agreement with a radiation oncology physician group which has contributed $400,000 towards the deposits on the third system. The Company’s first PBRT system has an anticipated delivery date in the first half of 2014.
 
The Company has made non-refundable deposits totaling $1,945,000 towards the purchase of a LGK Model 4 Gamma Knife unit to be installed at a site in Peru, a Perfexion unit at an existing customer site, and two Perfexion units scheduled to be installed at sites yet to be determined.
 
Including the commitments for the three MEVION S250 systems, the three Perfexion units, and the LGK Model 4 Gamma Knife unit, the Company has total remaining commitments to purchase equipment in the amount of approximately $40,000,000. It is the Company’s intent to finance the remaining purchase commitments as needed. However, due to the current economic and credit market conditions it has been more difficult to obtain financing for some of the Company’s projects. The Company expects that it will be able to obtain financing on the commitments for the remaining Perfexion units. The Company also expects that it will be able to obtain financing from lenders for its PBRT systems now that Mevion has obtained FDA approval on the MEVION S250. However, there can be no assurance that financing will be available for the Company’s current or future projects, or at terms that will be acceptable to the Company.
 
Item 3.
Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
 
The Company does not hold or issue derivative instruments for trading purposes and is not a party to any instruments with leverage or prepayment features. The Company does not have affiliation with partnerships, trusts or other entities whose purpose is to facilitate off-balance sheet financial transactions or similar arrangements, and therefore has no exposure to the financing, liquidity, market or credit risks associated with such entities. At September 30, 2013 the Company had no significant long-term, market-sensitive investments.

Item 4.
Controls and Procedures
 
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer, we have evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on that evaluation, our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer concluded that, as of September 30, 2013, our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is accumulated and communicated to the chief executive officer and the chief financial officer, and recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms. 
 
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended September 30, 2013 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
