NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1. Basis of Presentation and Management’s Liquidity Plans

Basis of Presentation - The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements include the accounts of Andrea Electronics Corporation and its subsidiaries ("Andrea" or the “Company”). All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

These unaudited, condensed consolidated interim 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. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for complete financial statements.  In addition, the December 31, 2007 balance sheet data was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The results of operations of any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for any other interim period or for the fiscal year.

These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007 included in the Company's Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007, filed on March 31, 2008.  The accounting policies used in preparing these unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements are consistent with those described in the December 31, 2007 audited consolidated financial statements.

Management's Liquidity Plans - As of March 31, 2008, Andrea had working capital of $1,642,015 and cash on hand of $945,948.  Andrea’s loss from operations was $362,073 for the three months ended March 31, 2008.  Andrea plans to continue to improve its cash flows during 2008 by aggressively pursuing additional licensing opportunities related to Andrea DSP Audio Software and increasing its Andrea Anti-Noise Headset Products sales through the introduction of refreshed product line scheduled to be introduced in the early part of 2008 as well as the increased efforts the Company is dedicating to its sales and marketing efforts.  However, there can be no assurance that Andrea will be able to successfully execute the aforementioned plans.

As of May 8, 2008, Andrea has approximately $620,000 of cash. Management projects that Andrea has sufficient liquidity available to operate through at least March 2009.While Andrea explores opportunities to increase revenues in new business areas, the Company also continues to examine additional opportunities for cost reduction and further diversification of its business.  Andrea was cash flow positive in 2007 and 2006.  Although these steps are encouraging, if Andrea fails to develop additional revenues from sales of its products and licensing of its technology or to generate adequate funding from operations, or if Andrea fails to obtain additional financing through a capital transaction or other type of financing, Andrea will be required to continue to significantly reduce its operating expenses and/or operations or Andrea may have to relinquish its products, technologies or markets which could have a materially adverse effect on revenue and operations. Andrea has no commitment for additional financing and may experience difficulty in obtaining additional financing on favorable terms, if at all.

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

(Loss) Earnings Per Share - Basic (loss) earnings per share is computed by dividing the net (loss) income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.  Diluted (loss) earnings per share adjusts basic (loss) earnings per share for the effects of convertible securities, stock options and other potentially dilutive financial instruments, only in the periods in which such effect is dilutive.  Securities that could potentially dilute basic (loss) earnings per share (“EPS”) in the future that were not included in the computation of the diluted EPS because to do so would have been anti-dilutive for the periods presented, consist of the following:

The above computation was not necessary for the three months ended March 31, 2008 as the period had a net loss.

Cash and Cash Equivalents - Cash and cash equivalents include cash and highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less.  The Company has cash deposits in excess of the maximum amounts insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation at March 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007.  The Company mitigates its risk by investing in or through major financial institutions.

Concentration of Credit Risk - Andrea is a manufacturer of audio communications equipment for several industries.  Revenues of Superbeam array microphone products were significant to one customer and its affiliates, accounting for approximately 11% and 13% of the total net revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively.  This customer accounted for 17% and 20% of total accounts receivable at March 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007, respectively.  Licensing revenues and other revenues of noise canceling and active noise canceling products were significant to one customer and its affiliates, accounting for approximately 2% and 23% of the total net revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively.  Licensing revenues and other service related revenues to one customer were approximately 19% and 9% of the total net revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

During the three months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, Andrea purchased a substantial portion of its finished goods from two suppliers. Purchases from these two suppliers amounted to 60% and 27% in 2008 and 86% and 0% in 2007, of total purchases.  At March 31, 2008, the amounts due to these suppliers in accounts payable were $152,824 and $55,920 respectively.  At December 31, 2007, the amounts due to these suppliers in accounts payable were $191,411 and $104,760 respectively.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts - The Company performs on-going credit evaluations of its customers and adjusts credit limits based upon payment history and the customer’s current credit worthiness, as determined by the review of their current credit information.  Collections and payments from customers are continuously monitored.  The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts, which is based upon historical experience as well as specific customer collection issues that have been identified.  While such bad debt expenses have historically been within expectations and allowances established, the Company cannot guarantee that it will continue to experience the same credit loss rates that it has in the past.  If the financial condition of customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, additional allowances may be required.

Inventories - Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (on a first-in, first-out) or market basis.  The cost elements of inventories include materials, labor and overhead.  Andrea reviews its inventory reserve for obsolescence on a quarterly basis and establishes reserves on inventories when the cost of the inventory is not expected to be recovered.  Andrea’s policy is to reserve for inventory that shows slow movement over the preceding six consecutive quarters.  Andrea records charges in inventory reserves as part of cost  of revenues.

Intangible and Long-Lived Assets - Andrea accounts for its long-lived assets in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets” for purposes of determining and measuring impairment of its long-lived assets (primarily intangible assets) other than goodwill. Andrea’s policy is to periodically review the value assigned to its long-lived assets to determine if they have been permanently impaired by adverse conditions which may affect Andrea. If Andrea identifies a permanent impairment such that the carrying amount of Andrea’s long lived assets are not recoverable using the sum of an undiscounted cash flow projection (gross margin dollars from product revenues), a new cost basis for the impaired asset will be established. If required, an impairment charge is recorded based on an estimate of future discounted cash flows.  This new cost basis will be net of any recorded impairment.

At March 31, 2008, because the revenues from the Andrea DSP Microphone and Audio Software Products business segment were lower than expected and this business segment was still operating at a loss, management compared the sum of Andrea’s undiscounted cash flow projections (gross margin dollars from product sales) of the Andrea DSP Microphone and Audio Software core technology to the carrying value of that technology.  The results of this test indicated that there was not an impairment.  This process utilized probability weighted undiscounted cash flow projections which include a significant amount of management’s judgment and estimates as to future revenue.  If these probability weighted projections do not come to fruition, the Company could be required to record an impairment charge in the near term and such impairment could be material.

Andrea amortizes its core technology, patents and trademarks on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of its intangible assets that range from 15 to 17 years.  Amortization expense was $118,314 and $117,954 for the three months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

Revenue Recognition – Non-software related revenue, which is generally comprised of microphones and microphone connectivity product revenues, is recognized when title and risk of loss pass to the customer, which is generally upon shipment.  With respect to licensing revenues, Andrea recognizes revenue in accordance with Statement of Position (“SOP”) 97-2, “Software Revenue Recognition,” as amended, and Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 13 “Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements.”  License revenue is recognized based on the terms and conditions of individual contracts (see Note 5).  In addition, fee based services, which are short-term in nature, are generally performed on a time-and-material basis under separate service arrangements and the corresponding revenue is generally recognized as the services are performed.

Income Taxes - The provision for income taxes is a result of certain licensing revenues that are subject to withholding of income tax as mandated by the foreign jurisdiction in which the revenues are earned.  For all other income taxes, Andrea accounts for income taxes in accordance with SFAS No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes” and Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes – an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (“FIN 48”).  SFAS No. 109 requires an asset and liability approach for financial accounting and reporting for income taxes.  FIN 48 establishes for all entities a minimum threshold for financial statement recognition of the benefit of tax positions, and requires certain expanded disclosures.  Using both of the guidelines set forth in these statements, the provision for income taxes is based upon income or loss after adjustment for those permanent items that are not considered in the determination of taxable income. Deferred income taxes represent the tax effects of differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of the Company’s assets and liabilities at the enacted tax rates in effect for the years in which the differences are expected to reverse.  The Company evaluates the recoverability of deferred tax assets and establishes a valuation allowance when it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.  Since cumulative losses weigh heavily in the overall assessment, Andrea provides a full valuation allowance on future tax benefits until it can sustain a level of profitability that demonstrates its ability to utilize the assets, or other significant positive evidence arises that suggests Andrea’s ability to utilize such assets.  If it becomes more likely than not that a tax asset will be used, the related valuation allowance on such assets would be reversed.  Management makes judgments as to the interpretation of the tax laws that might be challenged upon an audit and cause changes to previous estimates of tax liability.  In management’s opinion, adequate provisions for income taxes have been made for all years.  If actual taxable income by tax jurisdiction varies from estimates, additional allowances or reversals of reserves may be necessary.  Income tax expense consists of the tax payable for the period and the change during the period in deferred tax assets and liabilities.  The Company has identified its federal tax return and its state tax return in New York as "major" tax jurisdictions, as defined in FIN 48.  Based on the Company's evaluation, it has been concluded that there are no significant uncertain tax positions requiring recognition in the Company's financial statements.  The Company's evaluation was performed for tax years ended 2003 through 2007.  The Company believes that its income tax positions and deductions will be sustained on audit and does not anticipate any adjustments that will result in a material change to its financial position.

Stock-Based Compensation - At December 31, 2007, Andrea had three stock-based employee compensation plans, which are described more fully in Note 7.  Andrea accounts for stock based compensation in accordance with SFAS No. 123R, “Share-Based Payment.”  SFAS No. 123R establishes accounting for stock-based awards exchanged for employee services.  Under the provisions of SFAS No. 123R, share-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date, based on the fair value of the award, and is recognized

as expense over the employee’s requisite service period (generally the vesting period of the equity grant).  The fair value of the Company’s common stock options are estimated using the Black Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions:  expected volatility, dividend rate, risk free interest rate and the expected life.  The Company expenses stock-based compensation by using the straight-line method.  In accordance with SFAS No. 123R, excess tax benefits realized from the exercise of stock-based awards are classified in cash flows from financing activities.  The future realization of the reserved deferred tax assets related to these tax benefits associated with the exercise of stock option will result in a credit to additional paid in capital if the related tax deduction reduces taxes payable.  The Company has elected the “with and without approach” regarding ordering of windfall tax benefits to determine whether the windfall tax benefit did reduce taxes payable in the current year.   Under this approach the windfall tax benefit would be recognized in additional paid-in-capital only if an incremental tax benefit is realized after considering all other benefits presently available.

 
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141R, “Business Combinations” (“SFAS 141R”), which replaces SFAS No. 141, “Business Combinations.” SFAS 141R establishes principles and requirements for determining how an enterprise recognizes and measures the fair value of certain assets and liabilities acquired in a business combination, including noncontrolling interests, contingent consideration, and certain acquired contingencies. SFAS 141R also requires acquisition-related transaction expenses and restructuring costs be expensed as incurred rather than capitalized as a component of the business combination. SFAS 141R will be applicable prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2008. SFAS 141R would have an impact on accounting for any businesses acquired after the effective date of this pronouncement.

In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, "Fair Value Measurements" (“SFAS 157”). SFAS 157 clarifies the principle that fair value should be based on the assumptions market participants would use when pricing an asset or liability and establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the information used to develop those assumptions. SFAS 157 requires fair value measurements to be separately disclosed by level within the fair value hierarchy. SFAS 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years.  The adoption of SFAS 157 did not have a material effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial position or results of operations or cash flows.

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159 “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities – Including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115” (“SFAS No. 159”), which permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value.  The fair value option established by this Statement permits all entities to choose to measure eligible items at fair value at specified election dates. A business entity shall report unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected in earnings at each subsequent reporting date.  Adoption is required for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007.  The adoption of SFAS 159 did not have a material effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial position or results of operations or cash flows.

In December 2007, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 110 (“SAB 110”).  SAB 110 amends and replaces Question 6 of Section D.2 of Topic 14, Share-Based Payment of the Staff Accounting Bulletin series. Question 6 of Section D.2 of Topic 14 expresses the views of the staff regarding the use of the “simplified” method in developing an estimate of the expected term of “plain vanilla” share options and allows usage of that method for option grants prior to December 31, 2007.  SAB 110 allows public companies which do not have sufficient historical experience to provide a reasonable estimate to continue the use of this method for estimating the expected term of “plain vanilla” share option grants after December 31, 2007.  SAB 110 did not have a material effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial position or results of operations or cash flows.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements – An Amendment of ARB No. 51” (“SFAS 160”). SFAS 160 establishes accounting and reporting standards for the noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary (previously referred to as minority interests). SFAS 160 also requires that a retained noncontrolling interest upon the deconsolidation of a subsidiary be initially measured at its fair value. Upon adoption of SFAS 160, the Company would be required to report any noncontrolling interests as a separate component of stockholders’ equity.  The Company would also be required to present any net income allocable to noncontrolling interests and net income attributable to the stockholders of the Company separately in its consolidated statements of operations. SFAS 160 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2008. SFAS 160 requires retroactive adoption of the presentation and disclosure requirements for existing minority interests. All other requirements of SFAS 160 shall be applied prospectively. SFAS 160 would have an impact on the presentation and disclosure of the noncontrolling interests of any non wholly-owned businesses acquired in the future.

On February 12, 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position (FSP) No. SFAS 157-2, “Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157” (FSP SFAS 157-2). FSP SFAS 157-2 amends SFAS No. 157, to delay the effective date of SFAS 157 for nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities, except for the items that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis. For items within its scope, FSP SFAS 157-2 defers the effective date of SFAS 157 to fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting SFAS 157 and FSP SFAS 157-2 on its consolidated financial statements.

In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS 161, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133”, which amends and expands the disclosure requirements of SFAS 133 to require qualitative disclosure about objectives and strategies for using derivatives, quantitative disclosures about fair value amounts of and gains and losses on derivative instruments, and disclosures about credit-risk-related contingent features in derivative agreements. This statement will be effective for the Company beginning on January 1, 2009. The adoption of this statement will change the disclosures related to derivative instruments held by the Company.

Reclassifications - Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

Use of Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.

Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources.  The most significant estimates, among other things, are used in accounting for allowances for bad debts, inventory valuation and obsolescence, product warranty, depreciation, deferred income taxes, expected realizable values for assets (primarily intangible assets), contingencies, revenue recognition as well as the recording and presentation of the Company’s convertible preferred stock. Estimates and assumptions are periodically reviewed and the effects of any material revisions are reflected in the condensed consolidated financial statements in the period that they are determined to be necessary. Actual results could differ from those estimates and assumptions.

Note 3. Series C Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock

On October 10, 2000, Andrea issued and sold in a private placement $7,500,000 of Series C Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series C Preferred Stock”).  Each of these shares of Series C Preferred Stock had a stated value of $10,000 plus $671.23 increase in the stated value, which sum is convertible into Common Stock at a conversion price of $0.2551.  On February 17, 2004, Andrea announced that it had entered into an Exchange and Termination Agreement and an Acknowledgment and Waiver Agreement, which eliminated the dividend of 5% per annum on the stated value.  The additional amount of $671.23 represents the 5% per annum from October 10, 2000 through February 17, 2004.

On April 11, 2007, 10 shares of Series C Preferred Stock, together with related accrued dividends of $16,712, were converted into 457,516 shares of Common Stock at a conversion price of $0.2551.

The Company is required to maintain an effective registration statement from the time of issuance through June 4, 2010.  In the event that the holder of the Series D Preferred Stock and related warrants is unable to convert these securities into Andrea Common stock the Company shall pay to each such holder of such registrable securities a Registration Delay Payment.  This payment is to be paid in cash and is equal to the product of (i) the stated value of such Preferred Shares multiplied by (ii) the product of (1) .0005 multiplied by (2) the number of days that sales cannot be made pursuant to the Registration Statement (excluding any days during that may be considered grace periods as defined by the Registration Rights Agreement).

Note 8. Segment Information

Andrea follows the provisions of SFAS No. 131, “Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information.” Reportable operating segments are determined based on Andrea’s management approach. The management approach, as defined by SFAS No. 131, is based on the way that the chief operating decision-maker organizes the segments within an enterprise for making operating decisions and assessing performance. While Andrea’s results of operations are primarily reviewed on a consolidated basis, the chief operating decision-maker also manages the enterprise in two segments: (i) Andrea DSP Microphone and Audio Software Products and (ii) Andrea Anti-Noise Products.  Andrea DSP Microphone and Audio Software Products primarily include products based on the use of some, or all, of the following technologies: Andrea Digital Super Directional Array microphone technology (DSDA), Andrea Direction Finding and Tracking Array microphone technology (DFTA), Andrea PureAudio noise filtering technology, and Andrea EchoStop, an advanced acoustic echo cancellation technology.  Andrea Anti-Noise Products include noise cancellation and active noise cancellation computer headset products and related computer peripheral products.

ITEM 2.
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDIDTION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 

Overview

Our mission is to provide the emerging “voice interface” markets with state-of-the-art communications products that facilitate natural language, human/machine interfaces.

Examples of the applications and interfaces for which Andrea DSP Microphone and Audio Software Products and Andrea Anti-Noise Products provide benefit include: Internet and other computer-based speech; telephony communications; multi-point conferencing; speech recognition; multimedia; multi-player Internet and CD ROM interactive games; and other applications and interfaces that incorporate natural language processing. We believe that end users of these applications and interfaces will require high quality microphone and earphone products that enhance voice transmission, particularly in noisy environments, for use with personal computers, mobile personal computing devises, cellular and other wireless communication devices and automotive communication systems. Our Andrea DSP Microphone and Audio Software Products use “far-field” digital signal processing technology to provide high quality transmission of voice where the user is at a distance from the microphone. High quality audio communication technologies will be required for emerging far-field voice applications, ranging from continuous speech dictation, to Internet telephony and multiparty video teleconferencing and collaboration, to natural language-driven interfaces for automobiles, home and office automation and other machines and devices into which voice-controlled microprocessors are expected to be introduced during the next several years.

We outsource to Asia high volume assembly for most of our products from purchased components.  We assemble some low volume Andrea DSP Microphone and Audio Software Products from purchased components. As sales of any particular Andrea DSP Microphone and Audio Software Product increases, assembly operations are transferred to a subcontractor in Asia.

Our Critical Accounting Policies

Our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the notes to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain information that is pertinent to management's discussion and analysis.  The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities.  Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources.  On a continual basis, management reviews its estimates utilizing currently available information, changes in facts and circumstances, historical experience and reasonable assumptions.  After such reviews, and if deemed appropriate, those estimates are adjusted accordingly.  Actual results may vary from these estimates and assumptions under different and/or future circumstances.  Our significant accounting policies are described in Note 2 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2007.  A discussion of our critical accounting policies and estimates are included in Management’s Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation in our Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2007. Management has discussed the development and selection of these policies with the Audit Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors, and the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors has reviewed the Company’s disclosures of these policies.  There have been no material changes to the critical accounting policies or estimates reported in the Management’s Discussion and Analysis section of the 10KSB for the year ended December 31, 2007 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This report contains forward-looking statements that are based on assumptions and may describe future plans, strategies and expectations of the Company.  These forward-looking statements are generally identified by use of the words “believe”, “expect”, “intend”, “anticipate”, “estimate”, “project” or similar expressions.  The Company’s ability to predict results or the actual effect of future plans or strategies is inherently uncertain. Factors which could have a material adverse effect on the operations of the Company and its subsidiaries include, but are not limited to, changes in economic, competitive, governmental, technological and other factors that may affect our business and prospects.  Additional factors are discussed below under “Risk Factors” and in Part II, “Item 6. Management’s Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation—Risk Factors” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2007.  These risks and uncertainties should be considered in evaluating forward-looking statements and undue reliance should not be placed on such statements.  Except as required by applicable law or regulation, the Company does not undertake, and specifically disclaims any obligation, to release publicly the result of any revisions that may be made to any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of the statements or to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events.

Risk Factors

Our operating results are subject to significant fluctuation, period-to-period comparisons of our operating results may not necessarily be meaningful and you should not rely on them as indications of our future performance.

Our results of operations have historically been and are subject to continued substantial annual and quarterly fluctuations. The causes of these fluctuations include, among other things:

 
the volume of sales of our products under our collaborative marketing arrangements;
 
 
the cost of development of our products;
 
 
the mix of products we sell;
 
 
the mix of distribution channels we use;
 
 
the timing of our new product releases and those of our competitors;
 
 
fluctuations in the computer and communications hardware and software marketplace;
 
 
general economic conditions.

We cannot assure that the level of revenues and gross profit, if any, that we achieve in any particular fiscal period will not be significantly lower than in other fiscal periods.  Our net revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2008 were $926,640 versus $1,572,552 for the three months ended March 31, 2007.  Net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2008 was $362,272, or $0.01 loss per share on a basic and diluted basis, versus net income of $489, or $0.00 per share on a basic and diluted basis for the three months ended March 31, 2007. We continue to explore opportunities to grow sales in other business areas; we are also examining additional opportunities for cost reduction, production efficiencies and further diversification of our business.  Although we have improved cash flows by reducing overall expenses, if our revenues continue to decline we may not continue to generate positive cash flows and our net income or loss may be affected.

If we fail to obtain additional capital or maintain access to funds sufficient to meet our operating needs, we may be required to significantly reduce, sell, or refocus our operations and our business, results of operations and financial condition could be materially and adversely effected.

In order to be a viable entity we need to maintain and increase profitable operations.  To achieve profitable operations we need to maintain/increase current net revenues and continue to look for ways to control expenses.  We might also need to sell additional assets or raise capital as a means of funding continued operations.  We may have to raise capital from external sources.  These sources may include private or public financings through the issuance of debt, convertible debt or equity, or collaborative arrangements.  Such additional capital and funding may not be available on favorable terms, if at all.  Additionally, we may only be able to obtain additional capital or funds through arrangements that require us to relinquish rights to our products, technologies or potential markets, in whole or in part, or result in our sale.  As a result of past few years of performance, we believe that we have sufficient liquidity to continue our operations at least through March 2009, provided our net revenues do not continue to decline and our operating expenses do not continue to increase.  Although we have revised our business strategies to reduce our expenses and capital expenditures, we cannot assure you that we will be successful in generating positive cash flows or obtaining access to additional sources of funding in amounts necessary to continue our operations.  Failure to maintain sufficient access to funding may also result in our inability to continue operations.

Shares Eligible For Future Sale May Have An Adverse Effect On Market Price and Andrea Shareholders May Experience Substantial Dilution.

Sales of a substantial number of shares of our common stock in the public market could have the effect of depressing the prevailing market price of our common stock.  Of the 200,000,000 shares of common stock presently authorized, 59,861,193 were outstanding as of May 8, 2008. The number of shares outstanding does not include an aggregate of 29,357,677 shares of common stock that are issuable.  This number of issuable common shares is equal to approximately 49% of the 59, 861,193 outstanding shares.  These issuable common shares are comprised of:  a) 9,626,820 shares of our common stock reserved for issuance upon exercise of outstanding awards granted under our 1991 Performance Equity Plan, 1998 Stock Plan and 2006 Stock Plan; b) 14,984 shares reserved for future grants under our 1998 Stock Plan; c) 5,636,361 shares reserved for future grants under our 2006 Stock Plan; d) 4,149,736 shares of common stock that are issuable upon conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock; e) 4,771,432 shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the Series D Preferred Stock; and f) 5,158,344 of common stock issuable upon exercise of warrants relating to the Series D Preferred stock.

16

 
Changes in economic and political conditions outside the United States could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

We generate revenues to regions outside the United States, particularly in Asia. For the three months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, net revenues to customers outside the United States accounted for approximately 22% and 29%, respectively, of our net sales. International sales and operations are subject to a number of risks, including:
 
•           trade restrictions in the form of license requirements;
 
•           restrictions on exports and imports and other government controls;
 
•           changes in tariffs and taxes;
 
•           difficulties in staffing and managing international operations;
 
•           problems in establishing and managing distributor relationships;
 
•           general economic conditions; and
 
•           political and economic instability or conflict.
 
To date, we have invoiced our international revenues in U.S. dollars, and have not engaged in any foreign exchange or hedging transactions. We may not be able to continue to invoice all of our revenues in U.S. dollars in order to avoid engaging in foreign exchange or hedging transactions. If we are required to invoice any material amount of international revenues in non-U.S. currencies, fluctuations in the value of non-U.S. currencies relative to the U.S. dollar may adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition or require us to incur hedging costs to counter such fluctuations.
 
In addition to the risk factors set forth above and the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in Part II, “Item 6. Management’s Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation—Risk Factors” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2007, which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results. The risks described in this report and in our Annual Report on Form 10-KSB are not the only risks that we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results.

(a)  
The significant decrease of sales of Andrea Anti-Noise Products is directly related to an OEM customer for use with speech recognition software and was a result of the OEM’s decreased demand for our products during the three month ended March 31, 2008 as compared to the same period in 2007.  We believe that this decreased demand is related to the OEM’s 2006 product revision and related orders that did not ship until early 2007.  We believe that our annual revenues for 2008 associated with this customer will be approximately $250,000.
 
(b)  
The difference of approximately $183,000 relates to the sale of product to one of our OEM customers for a one-time design and build of a particular product.  These revenues represented one-time revenues that were only anticipated to be repeated if the OEM’s product was successful in the marketplace, which it was not.
 
(c)  
The significant 51% decrease in sales of microphone array products to an OEM customer relates to the decreased demand from the OEM customer.  We believe that the significantly higher sales in the three months ended March 31, 2007 was due to the introduction of the OEM’s product and the OEM customer’s need to supply all of its customers for the initial launch as opposed to regular fulfillment of a regularly stocked product that occurred during the three months ended March 31, 2008.  We believe that our sales from April 2008 to March 2009 will be consistent with our sales from April 2007 to March 2008
 
(d)  
The 37% decrease in all other Andrea DSP Microphone and Audio product revenues is comprised of an approximate $62,000 decrease in sales of our Andrea AutoArray Microphone and an approximate $32,000 decrease in sales of a custom product to one of our OEM customers.  The decrease in our Andrea AutoArray Microphone sales is due to a decrease in demand from the agencies that install voice activated programs into the emergency vehicle market.  We further believe this demand is due to a decrease in agency funding coupled with the time frame needed to obtain funding/approval of this type of product installation.
 
(e)  
The majority of the decrease in licensing revenues for the year ended December 31, 2007 is a result of one of our OEM licensing partners not including one of our licensed products in their new Vista bundle.  This decrease was partially offset by increases in other licensing revenues.  We expect that our 2008 licensing revenues will be in line with our 2007 licensing revenues.
 
Cost of Revenues

Cost of revenues as a percentage of net revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2008 increased to 52% from 50% for the three months ended March 31, 2007.  The cost of revenues as a percentage of net revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2008 for Andrea Anti-Noise Products is 63% compared to 61% for the three months ended March 31, 2007.  The cost of revenues as a percentage of net revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2008 for Andrea DSP Microphone and Audio Software Products is 38% compared to 37% for the three months ended March 31, 2007.  The changes are primarily the result of the changes in revenue as described under “Net Revenues” above.

Research and Development

Research and development expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2008 increased 12% to $193,404 from $172,759 for the three months ended March 31, 2007.  This increase primarily relates to increases in employee compensation and related benefit costs.  For the three months ended March 31, 2008, the increase in research and development expenses reflects an 8% increase in our Andrea DSP Microphone and Audio Software Technology efforts to $132,971, or 69% of total research and development expenses and a 21% increase in our Andrea Anti-Noise Headset Product efforts to $60,433, or 31% of total research and development expenses.  With respect to DSP Microphone and Audio Software technologies, research efforts are primarily focused on the pursuit of commercializing a natural language-driven human/machine interface by developing optimal far-field microphone solutions for various voice-driven interfaces, incorporating Andrea’s digital super directional array microphone technology, and certain other related technologies such as noise suppression and stereo acoustic echo cancellation.  We believe that continued research and development spending should provide Andrea with a competitive advantage.

General, Administrative and Selling Expenses

General, administrative and selling expenses increased approximately 4% to $610,174 for the three months ended March 31, 2008 from $588,761 for the three months ended March 31, 2007.  This increase is principally related to expenses associated with the implementation and compliance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.  For the three months ended March 31, 2008, the increase reflects a 3% increase in our Andrea DSP Microphone and Audio Software Technology efforts to $350,558, or 58% of total general, administrative and selling expenses and a 4% increase in our Andrea Anti-Noise Headset Product efforts to $259,616, or 42% of total general, administrative and selling expenses.

Interest Income (Expense), net

Other income, net for the three months ended March 31, 2008 was $2,874 compared to an interest expense of $1,172 for the three months ended March 31, 2007.  The year to date increase in other income is the result of interest earned on higher cash balances in 2007.

18

 
Provision for Income Taxes

The provision for income taxes is a result of certain licensing revenues that are subject to withholding of income tax as mandated by the foreign jurisdiction in which the revenues are earned.  Amounts are based on net revenues and are therefore subject to change.

Net Loss

Net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2008 was $361,272 compared to a net income of $489 for the three months ended March 31, 2007.  The net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2008 principally reflects the factors described above.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company has no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on its financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors.

Liquidity And Capital Resources

Andrea’s principal sources of funds are and are expected to continue to be gross cash flows from operations.  At March 31, 2008, we had cash and cash equivalents of $945,948 compared with $811,403 at December 31, 2007.  The balance of cash and cash equivalents at March 31, 2008 is primarily a result of our cash provided from operations during the three months ended March 31, 2008.

Working capital balance at March 31, 2008 was $1,642,015 compared to a working capital balance of $1,837,521 at December 31, 2007.  The decrease in working capital reflects a decrease in total current assets of $157,897 coupled with an increase in total current liabilities of $37,609. The decrease in total current assets reflects an increase in cash and cash equivalents of $134,545, a decrease in accounts receivable of $425,975, an increase in inventory of $153,248, and a decrease in prepaid expenses and other current assets of $19,715.  The increase in total current liabilities reflects a decrease in trade accounts payable of $13,090, and an increase of $50,699 in other current liabilities. The increase in cash and cash equivalents of $134,545 reflects $152,620 of net cash provided by operating activities, and $18,075 of net cash used in investing activities.

The cash provided by operating activities of $152,620, excluding non-cash charges for the quarter ended March 31, 2008, is attributable to a $426,032 decrease in accounts receivable, a $151,390 increase in inventory, a $19,715 decrease in prepaid expenses and other current assets, a $13,090 decrease in accounts payable, and a $50,699 increase in other current and long-term liabilities.  The changes in receivables, inventory, prepaid expenses and accounts payable primarily reflect differences in the timing related to both the payments for and the acquisition of inventory as well as for other services in connection with ongoing efforts related to Andrea’s various product lines.

The cash used by investing activities of $18,075 reflects an increase in property and equipment of $6,930 and an increase in patents and trademarks of $11,145.  The increase in property and equipment reflects capital expenditures associated with computer purchases.  The increase in patents and trademarks reflects capital expenditures associated with our intellectual property.

We plan to continue to improve our cash flows during 2008 by aggressively pursuing additional licensing opportunities related to our Andrea DSP Audio Software and increasing our Andrea Anti-Noise Headset Products through the introduction of refreshed product line set to introduced in the early part of 2008 as well as the increased efforts we are putting into our sales and marketing efforts.  However, there can be no assurance that we will be able to successfully execute the aforementioned plans.  As of May 8, 2008, Andrea has approximately $620,000 of cash and cash equivalents.  We believe that we have sufficient liquidity available to continue in operation through at least September 2009.  To the extent that we do not generate sufficient cash flows from our operations in the next twelve months, additional financing might be required.  Although we have improved cash flows by reducing overall expenses, if our revenues decline, these reductions may impede our ability to be cash flow positive and our net income or loss may be disproportionately affected.  We have no commitment for additional financing and may experience difficulty in obtaining additional financing on favorable terms, if at all.  Any financing we obtain may contain covenants that restrict our freedom to operate our business or may have rights, preferences or privileges senior to our common stock and may dilute our current shareholders’ ownership interest in Andrea. We cannot assure that demand will continue for any of our products, including future products related to our Andrea DSP Microphone and Audio Software technologies, or, that if such demand does exist, that we will be able to obtain the necessary working capital to increase production and provide marketing resources to meet such demand on favorable terms, or at all.
