NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

Note 1 — General

The information contained in the following Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements is condensed from that which appears in the audited consolidated financial statements for ISC8 Inc. (“ ISC8 ”), and its subsidiaries (together with ISC8, the “ Company ”), and the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include certain financial presentations normally required under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“ GAAP ”). Accordingly, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included herein should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes contained in the Annual Report on Form 10-K of the Company for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2012 (“ Fiscal 2012 ”), including the risk factors contained therein, as updated in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2013. It should be understood that accounting measurements at interim dates inherently involve greater reliance on estimates than at year-end. The results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the entire year.

The consolidated financial information for the three and nine month periods ended June 30, 2013 and July 1, 2012 included herein is unaudited but includes all normal recurring adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary to present fairly the consolidated financial position of the Company at June 30, 2013, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the three and nine month periods ended June 30, 2013 as compared to the same period ended July 1, 2012.

The condensed consolidated financial information as of June 30, 2013 included herein is derived from the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements as of, and for the year ended, September 30, 2012.

Acquisition of Bivio Software

On October 12, 2012, pursuant to the terms of the Foreclosure Sale Agreement between the Company and GF Acquisition Co. 2012, LLC (“ GFAC ”) dated October 4, 2012 (the “ Foreclosure Sale Agreement ”), the Company acquired substantially all of the assets of the NetFalcon ® and the Network Content Control System Business of Bivio Networks, Inc. and certain of its subsidiaries, an international provider of cyber-security solutions and products (“ Bivio ” or “ Bivio Software ”).

Accordingly, the Company's third quarter of fiscal 2013 ended on June 30, 2013 and fiscal 2013 will end on September 30, 2013, rather than September 29, 2013. Prior to this change, the Company’s third quarter was scheduled to end on June 30, 2013. The Company did not change its prior period presentation reflecting the current change in fiscal year because the difference is immaterial. Accordingly, all references to three and nine month periods ended June 30, 2013 and July 1, 2012 correctly described the period reported on this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

There have been no significant changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies during the nine months ended June 30, 2013. See Note 1 to the Company’s consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K for a comprehensive description of the Company’s significant accounting policies.

Revenue – Continuing Operations. The Company’s cyber-security business derives revenue from three principal sources, hardware, software, and maintenance, as follows:

The Company generates revenue from the sale of licensing rights to its software products directly to end-users and through value-added resellers (“ VARs ”). The Company also generates revenue from sales of hardware, installation, and post contract support (maintenance), performed for clients who license its products. A typical system contract contains multiple elements of the above items. Revenue earned on software arrangements involving multiple elements is allocated to each element based on the fair values of those elements. The fair value of an element is based on vendor-specific objective evidence (“ VSOE ”). The Company limits its assessment of VSOE for each element to either the price charged when the same element is sold separately or the price established by management having the relevant authority to do so, for an element not yet sold separately. VSOE calculations are updated and reviewed quarterly or annually depending on the nature of the product or service. When evidence of fair value exists for the delivered and undelivered elements of a transaction, then discounts for individual elements are aggregated and the total discount is allocated to the individual elements in proportion to the elements’ fair value relative to the total contract fair value. When evidence of fair value exists for the undelivered elements only, the residual method is used. Under the residual method, The Company defers revenue related to the undelivered elements based on VSOE of fair value of each of the undelivered elements and allocates the remainder of the contract price net of all discounts to revenue recognized from the delivered elements. If VSOE of fair value of any undelivered element does not exist, all revenue is deferred until VSOE of fair value of the undelivered element is established or the element has been delivered.

For arrangements that include both software and non-software elements, the Company allocates revenue to the software deliverables and non-software deliverables based on their relative selling prices. In such circumstances, the accounting principles establish a hierarchy to determine the selling price to be used for allocating revenue to deliverables as follows:

	(i)	VSOE;
	(ii)	third-party evidence of selling price (“ TPE ”); and
	(iii)	best estimate of the selling price (“ ESP ”).

When the Company is unable to establish a selling price using VSOE, or TPE, the Company uses ESP to allocate the arrangement fees to the deliverables.

Provided the fees are fixed or determinable and collection is considered probable, revenue from licensing rights and sales of hardware and third-party software is generally recognized upon physical or electronic shipment and transfer of title. In certain transactions where collection risk is high, the revenue is deferred until collection occurs or becomes probable. If the fee is not fixed or determinable, then the revenue recognized in each period (subject to application of other revenue recognition criteria) will be the lesser of the aggregate of amounts due and payable or the amount of the arrangement fee that would have been recognized on a straight line basis over the contractual period.

Revenue – Discontinued Operations. As a result of the discontinuation of the Company’s Government businesses during March 2013, any contractual obligations related to certain existing contracts at the point of discontinuation were subcontracted to outside parties (“ Subcontracted Contracts ”), thereby relieving the Company of responsibility of deliverables in business lines which were no longer part of continuing operations. The remainder of outstanding contracts that were not subcontracted to outside parties have been terminated at the Company’s request, thereby relieving the Company of its contractual obligations. The Subcontracted Contracts consist of cost reimbursement plus a fixed fee as well as fixed price level of effort research and development contracts.

The Company will continue to recognize revenue from discontinued operations through the end of the subcontract periods on the Subcontracted Contracts. The Company anticipates all such subcontracts to be completed no later than September 30, 2013. The revenue recognized from discontinued operations related to Subcontracted Contracts is based on incurred costs plus applicable fees or profits primarily in the proportion that costs incurred bear to estimated final costs. The Company will maintain on its balance sheet certain unbilled revenue related to contracts related to prior fiscal years which are pending the government’s evaluation and audit of final indirect rates. The Company will continue to review the estimates of costs to complete contracts on the Subcontracted Contracts on a monthly basis, until the subcontracts are complete. If a contract overrun is anticipated as a result of that review, the Company will record an accrual for the anticipated overrun and record a charge to earnings in the period in which the anticipated loss is first identified.

Consolidation . The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of ISC8 and its subsidiaries, ISC8 Europe Limited, Novalog, Inc. (“ Novalog ”), MicroSensors, Inc. (“ MSI ”), RedHawk Vision Systems, Inc. (“ RedHawk ”) and iNetWorks Corporation. As of and for the period ended June 30, 2013, ISC8 Europe Limited was the only Company subsidiary with operations, assets, separate employees, and facilities. As of and for the period ended June 30, 2013, ISC8 Europe Limited’s operations and assets were immaterial to the overall consolidated financial statements. All significant intercompany transactions and balances were eliminated in the consolidation.

Reportable Segments. The Company is presently managing its operations as a single business segment. The Company is continuing to evaluate the current and potential business derived from sales of its products and, in the future, may present its consolidated statement of operations in more than one segment if the Company segregates the management of various product lines in response to business and market conditions.

Reclassifications. Certain previously reported amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current consolidated financial statement presentation.

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets . The Company acquired goodwill as a result of its purchase of Bivio Software. As a result, the Company tested goodwill for impairment at the end of the third fiscal quarter ended June 30,2013. The Company’s annual test date is at the end of the third fiscal quarter, however it will also test for impairment between annual test dates if an event occurs or circumstances arise that would indicate the carrying amount may be impaired. Goodwill impairment testing is performed as a single reporting unit.

The Company has two approaches to evaluate the impairment of goodwill. The first approach is a qualitative assessment. The Company accumulates the relevant events and circumstances for each reporting unit subject to the qualitative assessment. If the Company determines it is more likely than not that the fair value is higher than the carrying value, no additional evaluation is necessary. If the goodwill evaluation does not pass the step zero assessment, the Company is required to use the quantitative measurement of the fair value of the reporting unit. Under this approach, the first step of the impairment test involves comparing the fair values of the single reporting unit with its carrying value. If the carrying amount of the single reporting unit exceeds its fair value, the Company performs the second step of the goodwill impairment test. The second step of the goodwill impairment test involves comparing the implied fair value of the single reporting unit’s goodwill with the carrying value of that goodwill. Any amount by which the carrying value of the goodwill exceeds its implied fair value, if any, is recognized as an impairment loss. Based on the results of the Company’s qualitative assessment, the Company does not believe its goodwill or intangible assets to be impaired as of June 30, 2013.

Intangible assets with definite lives at June 30, 2013 consist principally of software technology, trade names, and customer relationship, which were acquired as a result of the business combination with Bivio Software or developed internally. These assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. The Company will test for impairment between annual test dates if an event occurs or circumstances arise that would indicate the carrying amount may be impaired. There was no impairment to the Company’s definite lived intangible assets as of June 30, 2013.

Deferred Costs. Financing costs associated with the Company's debt issuances are capitalized as deferred costs and amortized using straight line amortization as interest expense over the debt period, which approximates the effective interest method due to the short term of the instrument.

Derivatives. A derivative is an instrument whose value is derived from an underlying instrument or index such as a future, forward, swap, option contract, or other financial instrument with similar characteristics, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts (the “ Embedded Derivatives ”) and for hedging activities. As a matter of policy, the Company does not invest in separable financial derivatives or engage in hedging transactions. However, the Company has entered into complex financing transactions that involve financial instruments containing certain features that have resulted in the instruments being deemed derivatives or containing Embedded Derivatives. The Company may engage in other similar complex debt transactions in the future, but not with the intention to enter into derivative instruments. Derivatives and Embedded Derivatives, if applicable, are measured at fair value using the Binomial Lattice pricing model and marked to market through earnings. However, such new and/or complex instruments may have immature or limited markets. As a result, the pricing models used for valuation of derivatives often incorporate significant estimates and assumptions, which may impact the level of precision in the financial statements. Furthermore, depending on the terms of a derivative or Embedded Derivative, the valuation of derivatives may be removed from the financial statements upon conversion of the underlying instrument into some other security or the terms of the underlying instrument becoming fixed.

Deferred Compensation. The Company has a deferred compensation plan, the Executive Salary Continuation Plan Liability (the “ ESCP ”), for key employees. Presently, two of the Company’s retired executives are receiving benefits aggregating $184,700 per annum under the ESCP and is considered a current liability which is included in accrued expenses in the attached Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The remaining long term portion is held under the ESCP Liability.

Foreign Currency Translation. Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currency are translated into U.S. dollars using the exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date. Statements of operations accounts are translated at the average exchange rates during the year. The impact of exchange rate fluctuations from translation of assets and liabilities is included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), a component of stockholders' equity. Realized gains and losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are included in other income (expense) in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Income (Loss) Per Share . Basic income (loss) per share is computed by dividing income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted income (loss) per share are calculated utilizing the treasury stock method for options and warrants, and the if-converted method for convertible instruments. Under this method the weighted average number of common shares is adjusted for common stock issuable upon exercise of stock options, warrants, and other commitments to issue common stock in periods in which they have a dilutive effect, and when the stock awards exercise price is lower than the Company's average share price for the period. Since the Company incurred a net loss for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2013 basic and diluted loss per share were the same. Inclusion of such awards would be anti-dilutive. See Note 10.

Subsequent Events. Management evaluated events subsequent to June 30, 2013 through the date the accompanying consolidated financial statements were filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission for transactions and other events that may require adjustment of and/or disclosure in such financial statements. See Note 17.

Note 2 – Notes Receivable

On June 21, 2013, the Company sold assets associated with the discontinued Government Business (see Note 15) and received as consideration a one-year note for $200,000 payable quarterly at an interest rate of prime plus 2% per annum. The first quarterly payment of the note is due on September 30, 2013. Under the terms of the Senior Revolving Credit Facility with PFG, the proceeds from this note receivable will be used to reduce the outstanding balance under the Senior Revolving Credit Facility. This note is entered into with Irvine Sensors Corporation, whose Chief Executive Officer is ISC8’s former Vice Chairman and Chief Strategist, John Carson.

On January 31, 2012, the Company sold its Thermal Imaging Business (see Note 1) and as of September 30, 2013, had a balance of $1.2 million as the final receivable associated with the sale. On February 1, 2013, the final payment against this receivable was received.

Note 3 – Restricted Cash

On May 23, 2013, the Company obtained a letter of credit as part of the new operating lease requirement (the “ lease” ) to its new facility in Plano, Texas. To establish a letter of credit, the Company’s bank required a deposit of $75,000 in an escrow account, which has been classified as restricted cash in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet. The lease allows the Company to reduce the amount held in escrow when certain financial milestones are met.

Note 4 – Recent Accounting Standards

Recent Accounting Pronouncements. In July 2013, the FASB issued ASU No 2013-11, Income Taxes. This amendment clarifies ASC Topic 740 Income Taxes by explicitly providing guidance on the financial statement presentation of an unrecognized tax benefit (“ UTB ”) when a net operating loss carry forward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carry forward exists. Prior to ASU No 2013-11, there was diversity in the presentation of the UTB. ASU No 2013-11 requires the Company to present a UTB, or a portion of a UTB, in the financial statements as a reduction to a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward, except when a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward is not available at the reporting date under the tax law of the applicable jurisdiction to settle any additional income taxes that would result from the disallowance of a tax position, or if the tax law of the applicable jurisdiction does not require the entity to use, and the entity does not intend to use, the deferred tax asset for such purpose, the UTB should be presented in the financial statements as a liability and should not be combined with deferred tax assets. The assessment of whether a deferred tax asset is available is based on the UTB and deferred tax asset that exist at the reporting date and should be made presuming disallowance of the tax position at the reporting date. The amendments in this update do not require new recurring disclosures. ASU No 2013-11 is effective for fiscal year and interim periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2013 and early adoption is permitted. ASU No 2013-11 is applied prospectively to all UTBs that exist at the effective date. The adoption of the accounting principles of this update is not anticipated to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.

In February 2013, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ ASU ”) No. 2013-02, Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income. The amendments in this update require an entity to disclose significant amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income into net income by the respective line items of net income in its entirety in the same reporting period. These amendments are effective for the Company prospectively for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2012. The adoption of this accounting update did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations.

Note 5 – Going Concern

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and settlement of obligations in the normal course of business. The Company generated significant net losses in the current and previous fiscal years. The Company had approximately $146,000 of cash on hand as of June 30, 2013. The Company’s operating expenses during the quarter ended June 30, 2013 was approximately $4,085,000. The Company expects that it will need to raise significant additional capital to continue as a going concern.

For the three and nine months ended June 30, 2013, the Company’s loss from continuing operations was $3.7 million and $12.7 million respectively, as compared to the Company’s income from continuing operations for the three months ended July 1, 2012 of $8.3 million and the Company’s loss from continuing operations for the nine months ended July 1, 2012 of $16.5 million. As of June 30, 2013 the Company had negative working capital and stockholders’ deficit of approximately $26.3 million and $45.7 million respectively, and as of September 30, 2012, the Company had negative working capital and stockholders’ deficit of $10.1 million and $35.4 million, respectively.

Management believes that the Company’s losses in recent years have been primarily the result of increased research and development expenditures related to the cyber technology, and efforts to productize those technologies and bring them to market. These losses were augmented by insufficient revenue to support the Company’s skilled and diverse technical staff, which is considered necessary to support commercialization of the Company’s technologies. Unsuccessful commercialization efforts in past fiscal years have contributed to the stockholders’ deficit as of June 30, 2013. Through June 30, 2013, the Company expended substantially all of the cash obtained from the Thermal Imaging Sale, the Revolving Credit Facility (defined below), and 2013 Notes (see Note 7) to fund our operations.

Management is currently focused on seeking additional capital to fund operations and on managing costs in line with estimated future revenues, including contingencies for cost reductions if projected revenues are not fully realized. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain additional working capital, or that anticipated revenues will be realized. In the event the Company is unable to raise additional funds to meet its continuing obligations on a timely basis, or at all, or the Company is unable to meet existing debt obligations, a default and acceleration of debt maturity could result, which could materially and adversely affect the Company’s business and financial condition, and ultimately challenge the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of asset carrying amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that might result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Note 6 – Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

The changes in the carrying values of goodwill for the nine months ended June 30, 2013 are described below:

		September 30, 2012				Acquisitions				June 30, 2013
Goodwill		$	-			$	393,000			$	393,000

During the nine months ended June 30, 2013, goodwill was established through the acquisition of Bivio Software (See Note 11). No other acquisitions were made during the period. The Company performed the annual goodwill impairment test during the third fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2013. Through the impairment analysis, the Company determined that no impairment was necessary at this time. As stated in Note 1, the Company will continue to evaluate whether any future periods require interim analysis.

Additionally, in connection with the Bivio Software acquisition on October 12, 2012 (See Note 11), the Company recorded $900,000 of intangible assets related to customer relationships, tradename, and software technology. The Company is amortizing the customer relationships over 5 years, the tradename over 10 years, and the software technology over 7 years. The Company also performed the annual impairment test during the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2013 relating to these intangible assets and determined that no impairment was necessary at this time.

The Company’s definite-lived intangible assets are summarized as follows:

	June 30, 2013
	Customer Relationships			Tradename			Software Technology			Total
Gross carrying amount	$	100,000		$	300,000		$	520,000		$	920,000

Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility

In December 2011, the Company entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (the “ Loan Agreement ”) with Partners for Growth III, L.P. (“ PFG ”) pursuant to which the Company obtained a two-year, $5,000,000 revolving credit facility from PFG (the “ Revolving Credit Facility ”). As additional consideration for entering into the Revolving Credit Facility, the Company issued to PFG and two PFG affiliated entities 7-year warrants to purchase, for $0.11 per share, an aggregate of 15,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “ PFG Warrants ”).

The maturity date for the Revolving Credit Facility is December 14, 2013 (the “ Maturity Date ”). Interest on the loan accrues at the rate of 12% per annum, payable monthly, with the principal balance payable on the Maturity Date. Both Costa Brava Partnership III L.P. (“ Costa Brava ”) and The Griffin Fund LP (“ Griffin ”) have unconditionally guaranteed repayment of $2,000,000 of the Company’s monetary obligations under the Loan Agreement with PFG, and are jointly and severally responsible. See Note 17 for a further discussion regarding this unconditional guarantee.

To secure the payment of the Company’s obligations under the Loan Agreement, the Company granted to PFG a first position, continuing security interest in substantially all of the Company’s assets, including substantially all of its intellectual property. In addition, Costa Brava, Griffin and certain other existing creditors of the Company have agreed that, while any obligations remain outstanding by the Company to PFG under the Loan Agreement, their security interests in and liens on the Company’s assets shall be subordinated and junior to those of PFG.

As of June 30, 2013, the Company was not in compliance with the financial covenants in the Loan Agreement and Revolving Credit Facility. On August 21, 2012, the Company and PFG entered into a Forbearance, Limited Waiver and Consent under Loan Agreement (the “ Waiver ”) by which, subject to certain terms and conditions, PFG waived that default and consented to other actions taken or to be taken by the Company, including the issuance of securities to finance the acquisition of Bivio. The Company agreed to pay to PFG a $30,000 fee and issue to PFG warrants to purchase 2,045,455 shares of common stock (the “ Waiver Warrants ”). The exercise price of the Waiver Warrants was equal to the lower of the Next Equity Financing Effective Price (" NEFEP ") or $0.11 per share.

The Waiver, by its terms, expired on September 30, 2012. As of September 28, 2012, in light of the Company’s continuing non-compliance with the financial covenants in the Loan Agreement, the Company and PFG entered into an Extension of Forbearance under Loan and Security Agreement (the “ Forbearance Extension ”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue to PFG warrants exercisable for 2,045,455 shares of the Company’s common stock per extension with an exercise price equal to the lower of the NEFEP or $0.11. The table below summarized the various Forbearance Extensions along with the warrants issued to PFG.

Forbearance	Extension Through Date	Exercise Price per share	Exercisable Share
Waiver	September 30, 2012	Lower of NEFEP or $0.11		2,045,455
Forbearance Extension	October 31, 2012	Lower of NEFEP or $0.11		2,045,455
Second Forbearance Extension	December 15, 2012	Lower of NEFEP or $0.11		2,045,455
Third Forbearance Extension	January 31, 2013	Lower of NEFEP or $0.11		2,045,455
Fourth Forbearance Extension	February 28, 2013	Lower of NEFEP or $0.11		2,045,455
Fifth Forbearance Extension	March 31, 2013	Lower of NEFEP or $0.11		2,045,455
Sixth Forbearance Extension	April 30, 2013	Lower of NEFEP or $0.11		2,045,455
Seventh Forbearance Extension	May 31, 2013	Lower of NEFEP or $0.11		2,045,455
Eighth Forbearance Extension	June 30, 2013	Lower of NEFEP or $0.11		2,045,455
Total				18,409,095

As of June 30, 2013, no shares have been exercised by PFG related to any of the shares issuable under the warrants related to the forbearance extensions.

Senior Subordinated Secured Convertible 2012 Notes

Effective as of September 28, 2012, the Company issued and sold to The Griffin Fund LP Senior Subordinated Secured Convertible Promissory Notes due November 30, 2012 in the aggregate principal amount of $1.2 million (the “ 2012 Notes ”). The 2012 Notes are convertible at $0.12 per share, or the price of shares sold by the Company to one or more investors and raising gross proceeds to the Company of at least $1.0 million. Through the end of January 2013, the Company issued an additional $4.2 million of the 2012 Notes. Since the conversion price was not fixed, such instrument was considered to be a derivative. As such, the Company recorded approximately $237,000 as a derivative liability and related debt discount.

Senior Subordinated Secured Convertible 2013 Notes

On February 2, 2013, the Company authorized the issuance of Senior Subordinated Convertible 2013 Notes (the “ 2013 Notes ”) that are a part of a series of notes, along with the 2012 Notes, in the aggregate amount of $10.0 million. On March 7, 2013, the aggregate principal amount of 2013 Notes available for issuance was increased from $10.0 million to $20.0 million. As a result, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized an increase in the shares of common stock reserved for issuance under the Subordinated Notes from 27,777,778 shares to 55,555,556 shares. As additional consideration for the purchase of the 2013 Notes, the Company issued shares of its common stock to each investor with a value equal to 25% of the principal amount of the 2013 Notes purchased by such investor.

As of August 13, 2013, the holders of the 2013 Notes were entitled to 39,597,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, of which the Company issued 21,079,000 shares with a value recorded to additional paid in capital of $2.2 million. All 2012 Notes outstanding in the principal balance of $5.4 million as well as $0.2 million in paid-in-kind interest were cancelled and exchanged by each investor for 2013 Notes.

During the three months ended June 30, 2013, J.P. Turner & Company, L.L.C. (the " Placement Agent ") raised $2.5 million under the 2013 Notes. The Placement Agent received (i) cash commissions totaling $285,000, representing 15% of the gross proceeds (ii) an expense allowance of $55,300, representing 3% of the gross proceeds, and (iii) warrants to purchase up to 257,440 shares of common stock of the Company for $0.09 per share. The proceeds were used to fund the Company’s operations.

The maturity date of the 2013 Notes, including those placed by the Placement Agent discussed above, is the earlier of 6 months after issuance, or the closing of a debt or equity financing resulting in gross proceeds to the Company in excess of $5.0 million (a “ Qualified Financing ”). However, the Holders may, at any time, convert the outstanding principal balance of their respective 2013 Notes into shares of the Company's common stock at a conversion price equal to $0.12 per share. Further, within fifteen (15) business days after the closing of a Qualified Financing, each investor may convert the outstanding principal and interest under their 2013 Note into the securities issued in the Qualified Financing, on the same terms and conditions as the other investors in the Qualified Financing. Since the conversion price was not fixed, such instrument was considered to be a derivative. As such, the Company recorded approximately $2.1 million as a derivative liability and related debt discount. During the nine month period ended June 30, 2013 the Company issued 2013 Notes in the amount of $11.9 million, inclusive of cancellation and exchange of the 2012 Notes.

As of August 13, 2013 the Company has issued $15.3 million of the $20.0 aggregate amount of 2013 Notes, inclusive of cancellation and exchange of the 2012 Notes.

Senior Subordinated Secured Promissory Notes

In March 2011, the Company issued and sold to two accredited investors, Costa Brava Partnership III L.P. (“ Costa Brava ”) and The Griffin Fund LP (“ Griffin ”) 12% Senior Subordinated Secured Promissory Notes due July 31, 2013 (the “ Senior Subordinated Notes ”) in the aggregate principal amount of $4.0 million. In July 2011, the Senior Subordinated Notes were amended to permit the holders to demand repayment any time on or after July 16, 2012, in partial consideration for permitting the issuance of additional Subordinated Secured Convertible Promissory Notes as discussed below. The owners of the Senior Subordinated Notes have not demanded payment as of June 30, 2013 and through the date of the filing of these financial statements with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The Senior Subordinated Notes bear interest at a rate of 12% per annum paid by adding the amount of such interest to the outstanding principal amount of the Senior Subordinated Notes as paid-in-kind interest. As a result of the addition of such interest, the outstanding principal amount of the Senior Subordinated Notes at June 30, 2013 was $5.2 million.

Table of Contents

The Senior Subordinated Notes are secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company pursuant to Security Agreements dated March 16, 2011 and March 31, 2011 between the Company and Costa Brava as representative of the Senior Subordinated Note holders, but the liens securing the Senior Subordinated Notes are subordinate to the liens securing the indebtedness of the Company to PFG under the Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility.

In December 2010, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with Costa Brava and Griffin, pursuant to which the Company issued and sold to Costa Brava and Griffin 12% Subordinated Secured Convertible Notes due December 23, 2015 (the “ Subordinated Notes ”), in the aggregate principal amount of $7.8 million and, in March 2011, the Company sold additional Subordinated Notes to Costa Brava and Griffin for an aggregate purchase price of $1.2 million. In July 2011, the Company sold Subordinated Notes to five accredited investors, including Costa Brava and Griffin, in the aggregate principal amount of $5.0 million. In addition, holders of existing notes with a principal balance of $1.1 million converted certain other notes outstanding at the time into Subordinated Notes during the year ended September 30, 2011.

The Subordinated Notes bear interest at a rate of 12% per annum, due and payable quarterly. For the first two years of the term of the Subordinated Notes, the Company has the option to pay all or a portion of the interest due on each interest payment date in shares of Common stock, with the price per share calculated based on the weighted average price of the Common stock over the last 20 trading days ending on the second trading day prior to the interest payment date. While the Revolving Credit Facility is outstanding, interest on the Subordinated Notes that is not paid in shares of Common stock must be paid by adding the amount of such interest to the outstanding principal amount of the Subordinated Notes as PIK interest. During the nine month period ended June 30, 2013, the Company paid approximately $1.4 million of interest costs in the form of 13,821,000 shares of common stock. The principal and accrued, but unpaid interest under the Subordinated Notes is convertible at the option of the holder into shares of the Common stock at an initial conversion price of $0.07 per share. The conversion price is subject to a full price adjustment feature for certain price dilutive issuances of securities by the Company, and proportional adjustment for events such as stock splits, dividends, combinations, etc. Beginning after the first two years of the term of the Subordinated Notes, the Company may force the conversion of the Subordinated Notes into Common stock if certain customary equity conditions have been satisfied and the volume weighted average price of the Common stock is $0.25 or greater for 30 consecutive trading days. As of June 30, 2013, the Company has not met the equity conditions to force the conversion of the Subordinated Notes.

The Subordinated Notes are secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company pursuant to a Security Agreement dated December 23, 2010 and July 1, 2011, as applicable, between the Company and Costa Brava as representative of the holders of Subordinated Note, but the liens securing the Subordinated Notes are subordinate in right of payment to Loans issued pursuant to the Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility and the Senior Subordinated Notes.

As a result of the issuances of Subordinated Notes, including the 2013 Notes discussed above, the conversion of existing notes to Subordinated Notes and the application of PIK interest, the aggregate principal balance of the Subordinated Notes at June 30, 2013, exclusive of the effect of debt discounts, was $16.1 million. During the nine month period ended June 30, 2013, approximately $30,000 in principal of Subordinated Notes was converted into approximately 438,000 shares of common stock. The balance of the Subordinated Notes, net of unamortized discounts comprised of derivative liability, at June 30, 2013 was $7.9 million. The debt discounts will be amortized over the term of the Subordinated Notes, unless such amortization is accelerated due to earlier conversion of the Subordinated Notes pursuant to their terms.

Fifth and Sixth Omnibus Amendment

The Company entered into a Fifth Omnibus Amendment, dated as of February 12, 2013, with Costa Brava (the “ Fifth Omnibus Amendment ”), and the Sixth Omnibus dated as of April 22, 2013 (the “ Sixth Omnibus ”) with the representative of the holders of the 12% Subordinated Secured Convertible Notes due 2015 (the " Promissory Notes "), and each of the holders of the Promissory Notes, the 12% Senior Subordinated Promissory Notes due 2013 (the " Senior Subordinated Notes ") and the 2013 Notes, which amends and modifies the terms of the Promissory Notes, the Senior Subordinated Notes and the Security Agreements (as defined in the Fifth Omnibus Amendment) to permit the issuance of the 2013 Notes, subordinate the liens securing the Promissory Notes to the 2013 Notes, and make the Senior Subordinated Notes and the 2013 Notes rank pari passu with one another. Costa Brava is the Company's largest stockholder and one of its largest creditors.

See Note 17 for a discussion of omnibus amendments that took place after June 30, 2013.

Derivative Liability

Certain instruments, including debt and warrants, contain provisions that adjust the conversion or exercise price in the event of certain dilutive issuances of securities, or exercise/conversion prices that are not fixed. These provisions required the Company to book a derivative liability upon issuance and re-measured the fair value of the derivative liability to be $14,286,000 as of June 30, 2013 and $19,925,000 as of September 30, 2012.

The Company estimated the fair value of the derivative liability using the Binomial Lattice pricing model with the following significant inputs, as outlined below, to estimate the fair value of the derivative liability as of June 30, 2013 and September 30, 2012:

	June 30, 2013		September 30, 2012
Risk free interest rate	0.47	%		0.35	%
Expected volatility	74.8	%		92.78	%
Expected dividends	None			None

Note 8 — Preferred Stock

In Fiscal 2010, the Company sold and issued an aggregate of 3,490 Series B convertible preferred stock units (the “ Preferred Stock Units ”) at a purchase price of $700 per Preferred Stock Unit. Each share is convertible at any time at the holder’s option into 2,000 shares of common stock at a conversion price per share of common stock equal to $0.50. Only 900 shares of Preferred Stock Units were outstanding as of June 30, 2013 and September 30, 2012, respectively, with a liquidation preference of $866,000 and $926,000 as of June 30, 2013 and September 30, 2012, respectively. These shares were convertible into approximately 1,800,000 shares of the Company’s common stock.

Note 9 — Common Stock Warrants, Stock Options, and Employee Stock Benefit Plan

Common Stock Warrants. As of June 30, 2013, warrants to purchase a total of 44,737,000 shares of the Company’s common stock were outstanding, with a weighted average exercise price of $0.16 per share and exercise prices ranging from $0.09 per share to $0.55 per share. As of September 30, 2012, warrants to purchase a total of 28,416,000 shares of the Company’s common stock were outstanding, with a weighted average exercise price of $0.21 per share and exercise prices ranging from $0.07 per share to $13.00 per share.

Stock Options. As of June 30, 2013, the Company had 51.0 million options outstanding with a weighted average exercise price of $0.21, and 41.4 million options exercisable with a weighted average exercise price of $0.23. During the nine months ended June 30, 2013, there were 4.7 million options granted and 1.1 million options exercised. As of September 30, 2012, the Company had 54.8 million options outstanding with a weighted average exercise price of $0.24, and 34.5 million options exercisable with a weighted average exercise price of $0.31. The unvested options outstanding and options exercisable had no aggregate intrinsic value as of June 30, 2013, as compared to a value of $115,000 and $297,000, respectively as of September 30, 2012. At June 30, 2013, the total compensation costs related to non-vested option awards not yet recognized was $654,000. The weighted-average remaining vesting period of non-vested options at June 30, 2013 was 0.9 years.

Employee Stock Benefit Plan. The Company has established an employee retirement plan (the “ ESBP ”). This plan provides for annual contributions to the Company’s Employee Stock Bonus Trust (“ SBT ”) to be determined by the Board of Directors and which will not exceed 15% of total payroll. As of June 30, 2013, the Company has not made any contributions to the SBT related to Fiscal 2013. Relating to Fiscal 2012 the Company made a contribution of 6.0 million shares of common stock with an estimated market value of $600,000 to the SBT.

Note 10 — Net Income (Loss) per Share

Basic net income (loss) per common share attributable to the Company is based on the weighted-average common shares outstanding during the relevant period. Diluted net income per common share attributable to the Company, utilizing the treasury method for options and warrants, and the if-converted method for convertible instruments, is based on the weighted-average common shares outstanding during the relevant period adjusted for the dilutive effect of outstanding stock options, convertible debts, warrants, and other commitments to issue common shares in periods in which they have a dilutive effect and when the stock awards exercise price is lower than the Company’s average share price for the period.

The Company incurred a net loss for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2013, basic and diluted loss per share were the same because the inclusion of potential common shares, related to outstanding stock options, warrants, and convertible debt in the computation of diluted net loss per share would have been anti-dilutive. Since the three months ended July 1, 2012 had earnings, the diluted earnings per share was calculated by excluding 27,583,000 shares related to stock options, 10,198,000 shares related to warrants, 1,980,000 shares related to convertible preferred shares to purchase a total of 39,761,000 shares of the Company’s common stock where the exercise price were in excess of the quoted market price of the Company’s common stock because inclusion would be anti-dilutive.

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted loss per common share:

Note 11 — Bivio Acquisition

The Bivio Transaction has been accounted for under purchase accounting. Accordingly, the Company has estimated the purchase price allocation based on the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed.

The preparation of the valuation required the use of significant assumptions and estimates. Critical estimates included, but were not limited to, future expected cash flows, including projected revenues and expenses, and applicable discount rates. These estimates were based on assumptions that the Company believes to be reasonable. However, actual results may significantly differ from these estimates.

The following table presents the calculation of the purchase price:

Cash	$	600,000
Fair value of warrants issued	85,000
Total purchase price	$	685,000

The following outlines the significant inputs the Company used to estimate the fair value of the warrants using the Binomial Lattice pricing model as of the acquisition date on October 12, 2012:

Risk free interest rate		1.69%
Expected volatility		92.20%
Expected dividends	None

The purchase price is allocated between the tangible and intangible assets and assumed liabilities based on their estimated fair values at October 12, 2012. Based on the Company’s valuation of the fair value of tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, the purchase price is allocated as follows:

Tangible Current Assets	$	142,000
Tangible Non-Current Assets		48,000
Liabilities assumed		(798,000	)
Amortizable intangible assets		900,000
Goodwill		393,000
Total fair value of net assets acquired	$	685,000

The following table presents amortizable intangible assets acquired and their amortization periods:

	Estimated		Amortization
	fair value		period
Customer relationships	$	100,000	5.0 years
Trade name		300,000	10.0 years
Software		500,000	7.0 years

Note 13 — Commitments and Contingencies

Please refer to Note 11 of the notes to Consolidated Financial Statement in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2012, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 28, 2012 (the “ 2012 Annual Report ”) for information relating to minimum rental payments under operating, capital leases and other commitments.

The Company may from time to time become a party to various legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of its business. The Company does not presently know of any such matters, the disposition of which would be likely to have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or liquidity.

Note 14 — Fair Value Measurements

The following tables present information about the Company’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis aggregated by the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the measurements fall:

•

Level 1 inputs: Level 1 inputs are quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that are accessible at the measurement date.

•

Level 2 inputs: Level 2 inputs are from other than quoted market prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.

•

Level 3 inputs: Level 3 inputs are unobservable and should be used to measure fair value to the extent that observable inputs are not available.

The hierarchy noted above requires the Company to minimize the use of unobservable inputs and to use observable market data, if available, when determining fair value. There were no transfers between Level 1, Level 2 and/or Level 3 during the nine months ended June 30, 2013. Financial liabilities carried at fair value as of June 30, 2013 on a recurring basis are classified below:

		Level 1				Level 2				Level 3				Total
Derivative liabilities		$	-			$	-			$	14,286,000			$	14,286,000

The table below sets forth a summary of changes in the fair value of the Company’s Level 3 financial instruments for the nine months ended June 30, 2013:

		September 30, 2012				Recorded New Derivative Liabilities				Change in estimated fair value recognized in results of operations (gain)/loss				June 30, 2013
Derivative liabilities		$	19,925,000			$	3,246,000			$	(8,885,000)			$	14,286,000

The Senior Subordinated Secured Convertible 2012 Notes, Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility, Senior Subordinated Secured Promissory Notes, subordinated secured convertible promissory note, and the Senior Subordinated Secured Convertible 2012 Notes are presented at their carrying amounts; as there are a lack of comparable instruments available for observation by the Company, it is not practicable to estimate the fair value of these instruments.

The following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for instruments measured at fair value, including the general classification of such instruments pursuant to the valuation hierarchy:

Assets Measured at Fair Value on a Non-Recurring Basis. The Company’s goodwill, intangibles, and other purchased intangible assets may be measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis. These assets are measured at cost but are written down to fair value if they are impaired. As of June 30, 2013, the Company’s goodwill, intangibles and other purchased intangibles were not impaired, and therefore were not measured at fair value.

Note 17 – Subsequent Events

Seventh Omnibus Amendment and Intercreditor Agreement

On August 7, 2013 we entered into the Seventh Omnibus Amendment with Costa Brava, which amends and modifies the terms of certain of the Promissory Notes and the Security Agreement, to permit the issuance of, among other promissory notes, the 2013 Notes, subordinate the liens securing certain promissory notes to the Promissory Notes, and to make the Promissory Notes and certain senior subordinated notes, including the 2013 Notes, rank pari passu with one another upon a liquidation of our assets. Costa Brava is our largest stockholder and one of our largest creditors.

Also on August 7, 2013, the Company and certain accredited investors participating in the offering of Notes and Warrants described below entered into an Intercreditor Agreement (the “ Intercreditor Agreement ”), pursuant to which such investors agreed to subordinate the liens securing such Notes to the July 30 Notes, and make the July 30 Notes and the 2013 Notes rank pari passu with one another upon a liquidation of the Company.

Forbearance

On July 1, 2013, the Company entered into a Ninth Extension of Forbearance under Loan and Security Agreement with PFG (“ Ninth Forbearance ”). The Ninth Forbearance extends the period through which PFG agrees to forbear from exercising its rights and remedies as a result of the Company’s default of certain covenant terms to the earlier of, among other events:

·	A default under the Loan Agreement;

·	August 2, 2013 if $3.0 million is not received from the sale of convertible debt or equity securities; or

·	September 20, 2013 if the Company does not receive $3.5 million in proceeds from the sale of convertible debt or equity securities.

provided, however , such date shall be accelerated or extended in increments of one calendar week for each $250,000 increment by which such financing falls short (or exceeds) $3.5 million in proceeds from the sale of convertible debt or equity securities.

-20-

Table of Contents

The Company consummated the Offering, as defined below, resulting in the extension of the period for which PFG has agreed to forbear from exercising its rights and remedies to at least September 20, 2013.

In connection with this forbearance, the Company agreed to pay PFG a forbearance fee in cash in the amount of 12.5% of the gross proceeds times 0.077%, as well as warrants with an exercise price of $0.01, to purchase that number of shares that would be equal to 12.5% of the gross proceeds of the sale of convertible debt or equity securities, multiplied by 3.97. Both the cash payment and the warrants are issuable upon the earlier of closing of a financing or December 31, 2013.

Debt Issuances

During July and August 2013, the Company consummated an offering (" Offering ") consisting of the issuance of senior subordinated secured convertible promissory notes to certain accredited investors (" Holders ") in the principal amount of $3.4 million (the " July 30 Notes "). The July 30 Notes are part of the 2013 Notes.

The July 30 Notes accrue simple interest at the rate of 12% per annum, and are secured by all assets of the Company under the terms of the Security Agreement, dated March 16, 2011 (the “ Security Agreement ”). Griffin Fund L.P. serves as the representative of the Holders under the Security Agreement and has broad discretion as the Holder representative in exercising the rights of the Holders under the Security Agreement. Griffin Fund L.P. and certain of its affiliates are holders of the July 30 Notes. Griffin Fund LP is a significant stockholder of the Company.

The July 30 Notes are convertible at the election of the Holder into that number of shares of the Company's common stock determined by dividing the outstanding principal and accrued interest due and payable under the July 30 Notes by $0.06 (the " Conversion Amount ") rather than the $0.12 per share in the rest of the 2013 Notes. In addition, the Holder has the right to convert the outstanding principal and accrued interest due and payable under the July 30 Notes in connection with a Qualified Financing by applying the Conversion Amount to the purchase of the securities issued in connection with the Qualified Financing.

The July 30 Notes are subordinate to the Existing Secured Debt of the Company, as such term is defined in the July 30 Notes. Payment of all amounts due and payable under the terms of the July 30 Notes are accelerated in the event of an event of default under the terms of the July 30 Notes. As additional consideration for the issuance of the July 30 Notes, the Holders will be issued warrants to purchase up to an additional 13,888,889 shares of the Company's common stock (the " Shares ") at a price of $0.001. The warrants expire on September 30, 2013. Further, the holders of the July 30 Notes will receive an original issue discount, whereby they will receive an additional 7.7% of principal note face value for the notes that they purchase.

The July 30 Notes and warrants were offered and sold in transactions exempt from registration under the Securities Act in reliance on Section 4(2) thereof and Rule 506 of Regulation D thereunder. Each of the Holders represented that it was an "accredited investor" as defined in Regulation D.

During July 2013, Costa Brava deposited $1.0 million in an escrow account at PFG (the “ PFG Guarantee Fund ”) as a guarantee fund for the Company. Costa Brava irrevocably transferred the rights, title and interest of this PFG Guarantee Fund account to the Company. In exchange for such rights received, the Company issued a $1.0 million note to Costa Brava as part of the $20 million series of promissory notes that the Company’s Board of Directors had approved in March of 2013.

As of August 13, 2013, $13.4 million of the Company’s debt had matured. The Company is in the process of working with the respective lenders of the debt to extend the maturity dates. No assurances can be given that the Company will be successful in extending the maturity dates of such debt.

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

In this report, the terms “ISC8 Inc.,” “ISC8,” “Irvine Sensors,” “Irvine Sensors Corporation,” “Company,” “we,” “us” and “our” refer to ISC8 Inc. (“ISC8”) and its subsidiaries.

Introduction

The following information should be read in conjunction with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (“ Quarterly Report ”), and with Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2012.

Overview

We are engaged in the design, development, and sale of a family of security products, consisting of cyber security solutions for government and commercial applications. Our current operations are located in California, Texas, and Italy with other employees and consultants in various other locations globally. Our operation in Italy was acquired in connection with our acquisition of certain software assets of Bivio Software in October 2012, described below.

As of June 30, 2013, we had approximately $38.2 million of debt, exclusive of debt discounts, and approximately $4.4 million of accounts payable and accrued expenses.

Acquisition of Bivio Software

On October 12, 2012, pursuant to the terms of the Foreclosure Sale Agreement between us and GF Acquisition Co. 2012, LLC (“ GFAC ”) dated October 4, 2012 (the “ Foreclosure Sale Agreement ”), we acquired substantially all of the assets of the NetFalcon ® and Network Content Control System Business (the " Bivio Software ") of Bivio Networks, Inc. and certain of its subsidiaries (collectively, “ Bivio ”), an international provider of cyber security solutions and products. The purchase price of those assets (the “ Acquisition ”) was $600,000 payable in cash to GFAC, and the issuance to GFAC of a warrant to purchase our common stock. The fair value of the warrants issued was $85,000. In addition, we assumed certain liabilities, including accounts payable, contractual obligations, reclamation obligations and other liabilities related to Bivio Software.

Change in Fiscal Year End-Date

On June 28, 2013, our Board of Directors unanimously approved a change to our fiscal year end-date from the last Sunday of September to September 30. Accordingly, our third quarter of fiscal 2013 ended on June 30, 2013 and fiscal 2013 will end on September 30, 2013, rather than September 29, 2013. Prior to this change, our third quarter was scheduled to end on June 30, 2013. We did not change its prior period presentation reflecting the current fiscal change because the difference is immaterial. Accordingly, all references to a three and nine months period ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 correctly described the period reported on this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Critical Accounting Estimates

Our consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“ GAAP ”). As such, management is required to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The significant accounting policies that are most critical to aid in fully understanding and evaluating reported financial results are the same as those disclosed in our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2012 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 28, 2012.

In March 2013, we ceased operations of its Government Business, and in January 2012 we ceased operations of its thermal imaging products business (the “ Thermal Imaging Business ”). In accordance with the provisions of the Presentation of Financial Statements Topic 205 of the ASC, the assets and liabilities related to the Government Business are now presented as discontinued operations for all periods presented in the consolidated financial statements. See Note 15 of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

On June 28, 2013,we changed its fiscal year end-date from the last Sunday of September to September 30. Accordingly, our third quarter of fiscal 2013 ended on June 30, 2013 and fiscal 2013 will end on September 30, 2013, rather than September 29, 2013. We did not change its prior period presentation to reflect the change in fiscal year, as the difference is immaterial. See Note 1 of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Table of Contents

The following discussions relate to our results of continuing operations after reclassifying the operations of our Thermal Imaging Business and Government Business as discontinued operations upon the sale of the Thermal Imaging Business on January 31, 2012, and the discontinuance of the Government Business on March 19, 2013.

Total Revenues. Total revenues for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2013 was $172,000 and $368,000 respectively. The revenue was generated from sales and support of cyber security products primarily resulting from the acquisition of Bivio Software and its software maintenance revenue. Our software-related revenue did not exist in the periods ended July 1, 2012. Effective March 19, 2013, we discontinued our Government Business and completed our goal of transforming the company into a pure cyber security company. We are continuing to focus on the development of the Cyber adAPT® product suite and are currently promoting sales of our other recently introduced products, Cyber NetFalcon ® and Cyber NetControl TM . We believe these products could become a material contributor to our total revenue, however no assurances can be given that such outcome will materialize during Fiscal 2013 or at all.

Cost of Revenues. Cost of revenue includes wages and related benefits of our personnel, as well as subcontractor, independent consultant and vendor expenses directly incurred in the manufacture of products sold, plus related overhead expenses. For the three and nine months ended June 30, 2013 cost of revenue was $44,000 and $125,000, respectively. There were no software-related costs in the periods ended July 1, 2012.

General and Administrative Expense. General and administrative expense largely consists of wages and related benefits for our executive, financial, administrative and marketing staff, as well as professional fees, primarily legal and accounting fees and costs, plus various fixed costs such as rent, utilities and telephone. For the three months ended June 30, 2013 general and administrative expenses increased $739,000 to $1.7 million or 76% from $968,000 in 2012. For the nine months end June 30, 2013 general and administrative expenses increased $2.8 million to $6.0 million or 89% from $3.2 million in 2012. The increase for three month and nine month periods consisted of a combination of increased stock-based compensation expense, marketing and legal fees, severance expense, as well as facilities expense related to cyber development in Texas. This was partially offset by a decrease in travel, bid and proposal fees, professional fees and stockholder-related expense.

Research and Development Expense. Research and development expense primarily consists of wages and related benefits for our research and development staff, independent contractor consulting fees and subcontractor and vendor expenses directly incurred in support of internally funded research and development projects, plus associated overhead expenses. For the three months ended June 30, 2013 research and development expense increased $1.0 million to $2.4 or 79% from $1.3 million in 2012. For the nine months ended June 30, 2013 research and development expenses increased $1.5 million to $5.8 million or 36% from $4.3 million in 2012. The three and nine month increases are largely related to the development expense of our Texas-based cyber security office, which we opened and began staffing in April 2011, and the acquisition of a research facility in Italy in connection with the acquisition of Bivio Software. Many of those expenses relate to hiring of highly-skilled developers and support staff, software licensing expense, consulting fees and various operating leases of facilities and equipment to support product development. We also signed a joint development agreement with a certain company to provide design and engineering services. We expect to continue to allocate significant resources to the development of our cyber security products in future periods, which may result in further increases in research and development expense as compared to prior fiscal periods. However, no assurances can be given that we will capitalize on our research and development initiatives.

Interest Expense. I nterest expense consists mainly of amortization of our debt discount and financing related cost. For the three month ended June 30, 2013 interest expense increased $2.6 million to $4.1 million or 172% from $1.5 million in 2012. For the nine months ended June 30, 2013 our interest expense increased $5.2 million to $9.9 million or 113% from $4.7 million in 2012. The increase in interest expense for the three and nine months end June 30, 2013 was primarily due to the issuance of additional debt to fund working capital.

Change in Fair Value of Derivative Liability. We revalued our embedded derivatives contained in certain convertible notes and warrants as of June 30, 2013. For the three month period ended June 30, 2013, our gain from the change in fair value of derivative liability decreased $7.6 million to $4.4 million or 63% from $12.1 million in 2012. For the nine months ended June 30, 2013, the gain from the change in fair value of derivative liability increased $13.3 million to $8.9 million or 301%, as compared to a loss of $4.4 million in 2012. This gain from change in fair value of derivative liability for the three and nine month period was mainly the result of quarterly fluctuations in our stock price. Given the price volatility of our common stock, we anticipate that there could be additional substantial changes in the fair value of our derivative liability that we will be required to record in future reporting periods, unless and until our convertible debt instruments mature, are repaid, or are converted into common stock, and/or the warrants expire or are exercised for the purchase of common stock pursuant to their respective terms. Although no assurances can be given, in the event of such conversion or exercise, the derivative liability associated with these instruments would be eliminated.

Other Income (Expense), Net. Our other expense for the three months ended June 30, 2013 increased $15,000 to $4,000 expense or 136% from $11,000 income in 2012. For the nine month ended June 30, 2013, our other expense increased $80,000 to $66,000 or 571% from $14,000 income in 2012 mainly decreased due to tax liability charges associated with the final payment of the Thermal sale.

Net Income (Loss) from Continuing Operations. Our net loss from continuing operations increased $11.9 million to $3.7 million from $8.3 million in income for the three month period ended June 30, 2013 compared to the three month period ended July 1, 2012, largely due to a gain from change in fair value of derivative instruments. The net loss from continuing operations was increased further by an increase total cost and expenses and interest expenses in the comparable period. Our net loss from continuing operations decreased $3.8 million to $12.7 million from $16.5 million in the nine month period ended June 30, 2013 as compared to the nine month period ended July 1, 2012, largely due to a change in fair value of derivative instruments, offset in part by an increase in operating costs and interest expenses in the comparable period.

Income (Loss) per Share. Basic income (loss) per share from continuing operations decreased $0.09 to $(0.02) for the three months ended June 30, 2013, from $0.07 in 2012, while diluted income (loss) per share from continuing operations decreased $0.04 to $(0.02) from $0.02 in 2012. For the nine months ended June 30, 2013, basic and diluted loss per share from continuing operations increased $0.06 to $(0.08) from $(0.14) in 2012.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our liquidity in terms of both cash and cash equivalents decreased in the first nine months of Fiscal 2013, largely as a result of losses generated from continuing operations, partially offset by an increase in software revenue. As a result, we continued to have a working capital deficit for the current period as shown in the following table and discussed more fully below:

	Cash and Cash Equivalents			Working Capital (Deficit)
September 30, 2012	$	1,738,000		$	(10,091,000)
Net Dollar decrease as of June 30, 2013		(1,592,000	)		(15,064,000)

June 30, 2013	$	146,000		$	(25,155,000)
Percentage decrease as of June 30, 2013		(92%	)		(149%)

The $1.6 million use of cash during the nine month period ended June 30, 2013 is a result of the following components: cash used in operating activities of $10.7 million, cash provided by investing activities of $0.3 million, and cash provided by financing activities of $10.6 million. Cash used in operating activities was a result of the $12.7 million net loss from continuing operations and $8.9 million change in fair value of derivative liability, partially offset by $8.5 million in non-cash interest expense, and other less significant factors related to various timing and cash deployment effects. Cash provided by investing activities was a result of $1.2 million in proceeds from sale of Thermal Imaging Division, partially offset by $0.7 million used in acquisition related costs and property and equipment expenditures. Cash provided by financing activities was a result of $10.7 million in proceeds from the issuance of the 2013 Notes. Cash used in discontinued operations of $1.6 million was mainly a result of $3.1 million in net loss partially offset by the sale and disposal of discontinued operation fixed assets of $0.5 million and $0.3 million in accounts receivable collection.

Table of Contents

For the three and nine months ended June 30, 2013, our loss from continuing operations was $3.7 million and $12.7 million respectively, as compared to an income from continuing operations for the three months ended July 1, 2012 of $8.3 million and a loss from continuing operations for the nine months ended July 1, 2012 of $16.5 million. As of June 30, 2013 we had negative working capital and stockholders’ deficit of approximately $26.3 million and $45.7 million respectively, and as of September 30, 2012, we had negative working capital and stockholders’ deficit of $10.1 million and $35.4 million, respectively.

As of June 30, 2013 we have used substantially all of the cash obtained from the Thermal Imaging Sale, the Revolving Credit Facility and 2013 Notes to fund our operations, and have been unable to maintain positive cash flow during the nine month period due to insufficient revenues. We generated significant net losses in the current and previous fiscal years. We had approximately $146,000 of cash on hand as of June 30, 2013. Our operating expenses during the quarter ended June 30, 2013 was approximately $4,085,000. To continue to fund anticipated operating expenses and satisfy indebtedness, we are currently seeking additional financing, and no assurances can be given that such financing will be available on a timely basis, on terms that are acceptable, or at all. Failure to do so and meet the repayment or other obligations of our existing debt could result in default and acceleration of debt maturity, which could materially adversely affect our business, and financial condition, and threaten our viability as a going concern.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

Our conventional operating leases are either immaterial to our financial statements or do not contain the types of guarantees, retained interests or contingent obligations that would require their disclosures as an “off-balance sheet arrangement” pursuant to Regulation S-K Item 303(a)(4). As of June 30, 2013 and September 30, 2012, we did not have any other relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partners, such as entities often referred to as structured finance or special purpose entities, which would have been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements or other contractually narrow or limited purposes.

Contractual Obligations and Commitments

Debt. At June 30, 2013, we had approximately $38.2 million of debt, exclusive of discounts, which consisted of (i) a Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility, in the original principal amount of $5.0 million; (ii) Senior Subordinated Secured Convertible 2013 Notes with an aggregate principal balance of approximately $11.9 million; (iii) Senior Subordinated Notes with an aggregate principal balance of approximately $5.2 million, and (iv) Subordinated Secured Convertible Notes with an aggregate principal balance of approximately $16.1 million. These instruments are more fully described below.

Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility

In December 2011, we entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (the “ Loan Agreement ”) with Partners for Growth, L.P. (“ PFG ”) pursuant to which we obtained the two-year, $5.0 million line of credit (the “ Revolving Credit Facility ”). Upon execution of the Loan Agreement, we borrowed the entire $5.0 million available thereunder and used approximately $1.9 million of that Revolving Credit Facility to repay the Secured Promissory Note. We used the remaining proceeds of the Revolving Credit Facility, less fund raising expenses, for general working capital purposes.

The maturity date for the Revolving Credit Facility is December 14, 2013 (the “ Maturity Date ”). Interest on the Revolving Credit Facility accrues at the rate of 12% per annum. Interest on the Revolving Credit Facility is payable monthly on the third business day of each month for interest accrued during the prior month, and the remaining balance is payable on the Maturity Date. Each of Costa Brava and Griffin, individually and collectively, jointly and severally, have unconditionally guaranteed repayment to PFG of $2.0 million of our monetary obligations under the Loan Agreement.

To secure the payment of all of our obligations under the Revolving Credit Facility when due, we granted to PFG a first position, continuing security interest in substantially all of our assets, including substantially all of our intellectual property. In addition, Costa Brava, Griffin and certain other of our existing creditors have agreed that, while any obligations remain outstanding by us to PFG, their respective security interests in and liens on our assets shall be subordinated and junior to those of PFG.

Senior Subordinated Secured Convertible 2013 Notes and Senior Subordinated Secured Convertible 2012 Notes

On February 2, 2013, we authorized the issuance of Senior Subordinated Secured Convertible 2013 Notes (the “ 2013 Notes ”) that are a part of a series of notes, along with the 2012 Notes, in the aggregate amount of $10.0 million. On March 7, 2013, the aggregate principal amount of the 2013 Notes was increased to $20.0 million and the shares of common stock reserved for issuance was increased from 27,777,778 to 55,555,556 shares. As additional consideration for the purchase of the 2013 Notes, we issued shares of its common stock to each investor with a value equal to 25% of the principal amount of the 2013 Notes purchased by such investor.

During the three months ended June 30, 2013, J.P. Turner & Company, L.L.C. (the " Placement Agent ") raised $2.5 million under the 2013 Notes. The Placement Agent received (i) cash commissions totaling $285,000, representing 15% of the gross proceeds (ii) an expense allowance of $55,300, representing 3% of the gross proceeds, and (iii) warrants to purchase up 257,440 shares of our common stock for $0.09 per share. The proceeds were used to fund our operations.

The maturity date of the 2013 Notes, including the April 2013 Notes, is the earlier of six months after issuance, or the closing of a debt or equity financing resulting in gross proceeds to us in excess of $5.0 million (a “ Qualified Financing ”). However, the Holders may, at any time, convert the outstanding principal balance of their respective 2013 Notes into shares of our common stock at a conversion price equal to $0.12 per share. Further, within 15 business days after the closing of a Qualified Financing, each investor may convert the outstanding principal and interest under their 2013 Note into the securities issued in the Qualified Financing, on the same terms and conditions as the other investors in the Qualified Financing. During the nine month period ended June 30, 2013 we issued 2013 Notes in the amount of $11.9 million, inclusive of cancellation and exchange of any 2012 Notes. As of August 13, 2013 we have issued $15.3 million of the $20.0 million aggregate amount of these series of Notes.

As of September 28, 2012, we had issued and sold to The Griffin Fund LP Senior Subordinated Secured Convertible 2012 Notes due November 30, 2012 in the aggregate principal amount of $1.2 million (the “ 2012 Notes ”). The 2012 Notes were convertible at $0.12 per share, or the price of shares sold by us to one or more investors and raising gross proceeds to us of at least $1.0 million. During the six month period ended March 31, 2013 we issued an additional $4.2 million of the 2012 Notes. Since the conversion price was not fixed, such instrument was considered to be a derivative. The 2012 Notes were due March 31, 2013. All 2012 Notes outstanding in the principal balance of $5.4 million as well as $0.2 million in paid in kind interest were cancelled and exchanged by each investor for 2013 Notes.

Senior Subordinated Notes

In March 2011, we issued and sold to two accredited investors, Costa Brava Partnership III L.P. (“ Costa Brava ”) and The Griffin Fund LP (“ Griffin ”) 12% Senior Subordinated Secured Promissory Notes due March 2013 (the “ Senior Subordinated Notes ”) in the aggregate principal amount of $4.0 million. In July 2011, the Senior Subordinated Notes were amended to permit the holders to demand repayment any time on or after July 16, 2012, in partial consideration for permitting the issuance of additional Subordinated Secured Convertible Promissory Notes as discussed below. Because of this demand, the Senior Subordinated Notes have been classified as current obligations in our Consolidated Balance Sheet as of June 30, 2013.

The Senior Subordinated Notes bear interest at a rate of 12% per annum paid by adding the amount of such interest to the outstanding principal amount of the Senior Subordinated Notes as “paid-in-kind” (“ PIK ”) interest. As a result of the addition of such interest, the outstanding principal amount of the Senior Subordinated Notes at June 30, 2013 was $5.2 million.

The Senior Subordinated Notes are secured by substantially all of our assets pursuant to Security Agreements dated March 16, 2011 and March 31, 2011 between us and Costa Brava as representative of the Senior Subordinated Note holders, but the liens securing the Senior Subordinated Notes are subordinate to the liens securing the indebtedness of us to PFG under the Revolving Credit Facility.

Subordinated Secured Convertible Notes

In December 2010, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with Costa Brava and Griffin, pursuant to which we issued and sold to Costa Brava and Griffin 12% Subordinated Secured Convertible Notes due December 23, 2015 (the “ Subordinated Notes ”) in the aggregate principal amount of $7.8 million and sold in a subsequent closing in March 2011 additional Subordinated Notes to Costa Brava and Griffin for an aggregate purchase price of $1.2 million. In July 2011, we sold additional Subordinated Notes to five accredited investors, including Costa Brava and Griffin, in the aggregate principal amount of $5,000,000. In addition, holders of existing notes with a principal balance of $1.1 million converted their certain other notes outstanding at the time into Subordinated Notes during Fiscal 2011.

The Subordinated Notes bear interest at a rate of 12% per annum, due and payable quarterly. For the first two years of the term of the Subordinated Notes, we have the option to pay all or a portion of the interest due on each interest payment date in shares of common stock, with the price per share calculated based on the weighted average price of the Common Stock over the last 20 trading days ending on the second trading day prior to the interest payment date. While the Revolving Credit Facility is outstanding, interest on the Subordinated Notes that is not paid in shares of Common Stock must be paid by adding the amount of such interest to the outstanding principal amount of the Subordinated Notes as PIK interest. During the nine month period ended June 30, 2013, we paid approximately $1.4 million of interest costs in the form of 13,821,000 shares of common stock. The principal and accrued but unpaid interest under the Subordinated Notes is convertible at the option of the holder into shares of the Common Stock at an initial conversion price of $0.07 per share. The conversion price is subject to a full price adjustment feature for certain price dilutive issuances of securities by us and proportional adjustment for events such as stock splits, dividends, combinations and the like. Beginning after the first two years of the term of the Subordinated Notes, we may force the Subordinated Notes to be converted to Common Stock if certain customary equity conditions have been satisfied and the volume weighted average price of the common stock is $0.25 or greater for 30 consecutive trading days. As of June 30, 2013, we have not met the equity conditions to force the conversion of the Subordinated Notes.

As a result of the issuances of Subordinated Notes, the conversion of existing notes to Subordinated Notes, the conversion of Subordinated Notes to common stock, and the application of PIK interest, the aggregate principal balance of the Subordinated Notes at June 30, 2013, exclusive of the effect of debt discounts, was $16.1 million. During the 9 month period ended June 30, 2013, approximately $30,000 principal of Subordinated Notes was converted into approximately 438,000 shares of common stock. The balance of the Subordinated Notes, net of unamortized discounts comprised of derivative liability, at June 30, 2013 was $7.9 million. The debt discounts will be amortized over the term of the Subordinated Notes, unless such amortization is accelerated due to earlier conversion of the Subordinated Notes pursuant to their terms. We paid a total of $1.0 million in cash commissions to an investment banker for services related to issuance of the Subordinated Notes, $682,000 of which was recorded as a deferred financing cost and the balance recorded as an offset to equity.

The Subordinated Notes are secured by substantially all of our assets pursuant to a Security Agreement dated December 23, 2010 and July 1, 2011, as applicable, between us and Costa Brava as representative of the holders of Subordinated Notes, but the liens securing the Subordinated Notes are subordinate in right of payment to Loans issued pursuant to the Revolving Credit Facility.

Fifth Omnibus Amendment

In connection with the Exchange, we entered into a Fifth Omnibus Amendment, dated as of February 12, 2013, with the representative of the holders of the 12% Subordinated Secured Convertible Notes due 2015 (the " Promissory Notes "), and each of the holders of the Promissory Notes, the 12% Senior Subordinated Promissory Notes due 2013 (the " Senior Subordinated Notes ") and the 2013 Notes (the " Fifth Omnibus Amendment "), which amends and modifies the terms of the Promissory Notes, the Senior Subordinated Notes and the Security Agreements (as defined in the Fifth Omnibus Amendment) to permit the issuance of the 2013 Notes, subordinate the liens securing the Promissory Notes to the 2013 Notes, and make the Senior Subordinated Notes and the 2013 Notes rank pari passu with one another.

Sixth Omnibus Amendment

On April 22, 2013 we entered into the Sixth Omnibus Amendment with Costa Brava, which amends and modifies the terms of certain of our promissory notes and the Security Agreement, dated March 16, 2011, as amended, between us and Costa Brava (as amended from time to time, the " Security Agreement "), to permit the issuance of, among other promissory notes, the notes referred to below, subordinate the liens securing certain promissory notes to the Notes, and make the Notes and certain senior subordinated notes rank pari passu with one another upon a liquidation of our assets. Costa Brava is our largest stockholder and one of its largest creditors.

Seventh Omnibus Amendment

On August 7, 2013 we entered into the Seventh Omnibus Amendment with Costa Brava, which amends and modifies the terms of certain of our promissory notes and the Security Agreement, to permit the issuance of, among other promissory notes, the 2013 Notes, subordinate the liens securing certain promissory notes to the Notes, and make the Notes and certain senior subordinated notes rank pari passu with one another upon a liquidation of our assets. Costa Brava is our largest stockholder and one of its largest creditors.

Capital Lease Obligations . The outstanding principal balance on our capital lease obligations of $67,000 at June 30, 2013 relates primarily to computer equipment and software and is included as part of current and non-current liabilities within our consolidated balance sheet.

Operating Lease Obligations. We have various operating leases covering equipment and facilities located at our offices in California, Texas, Italy, and Dubai.

Deferred Compensation. We have a deferred compensation plan, the Executive Salary Continuation Plan (the “ ESCP ”), for select key employees. Benefits payable under the ESCP are established on the basis of years of service with us, age at retirement and base salary, subject to a maximum benefits limitation of $137,000 per year for any individual. The ESCP is an unfunded plan. The recorded liability for future expense under the ESCP is determined based on expected lifetimes of participants using Social Security mortality tables and discount rates comparable to those of rates of return on high quality investments providing yields in amount and timing equivalent to expected benefit payments. At the end of each fiscal year, we determine the assumed discount rate to be used to discount the ESCP liability. We considered various sources in making this determination for Fiscal 2012, including the Citigroup Pension Liability Index, which at September 30, 2012 was 3.94%. Based on this review, we used a 3.94% discount rate for determining the ESCP liability at September 30, 2012. Presently, two of our retired executives are receiving benefits aggregating $184,700 per annum under the ESCP. As of June 30, 2013, $974,000 has been accrued in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet for the ESCP, of which amount $184,700 is a current liability included in accrued expenses in the attached Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as we expect to pay during Fiscal 2013.

Stock-Based Compensation

Aggregate stock-based compensation attributable to continuing operations for the nine month periods ended June 30, 2013 and July 1, 2012 was $453,000 and $471,000, respectively.

All transactions in which goods or services are the consideration received for equity instruments issued to non-employees are accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The measurement date used to determine the fair value of any such equity instrument is the earliest to occur of (i) the date on which the third-party performance is complete, (ii) the date on which it is probable that performance will occur, or (iii) if different, the date on which the compensation has been earned by the non-employee. In the year ended September 30, 2012, we issued to PFG warrants to purchase 15,000,000 shares of our common stock, valued at $250,000 pursuant to which we obtained the Revolving Credit Facility. We have recorded this expense as a debt discount, which is being amortized over the two-year term of the Revolving Credit Facility.

We calculate stock option-based compensation by estimating the fair value of each option granted using the Black-Scholes option valuation model and various assumptions that are described in Note 1 of the Accompanying Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Quarterly Report. Once the compensation cost of an option is determined, we recognize that cost on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the option, which is typically the vesting period for options granted by us. We calculate compensation expense of both vested and non-vested stock grants by determining the fair value of each such grant as of their respective dates of grant using our stock price at such dates with no discount. We recognize compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of a non-vested stock award.

Table of Contents

For the nine months ended June 30, 2013, stock-based compensation included compensation costs attributable to such periods for those options that were not fully vested upon adoption of ASC 718, Compensation — Stock Compensation , adjusted for estimated forfeitures. We have estimated forfeitures to be 7%, which reduced stock-based compensation cost by $59,000 in the nine month period ended June 30, 2013. We granted options to purchase 1,900,000 shares and 4,725,000 shares of common stock in the three month and nine month period ended June 30, 2013. We granted options to purchase 1,465,000 and 2,692,500 shares of common stock in the three month and nine month periods ended July 1, 2012, respectively.

At June 30, 2013, the total compensation costs related to non-vested option awards not yet recognized was $654,000. The weighted-average remaining vesting period of non-vested options at June 30, 2013 was 0.9 years.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

As a "smaller reporting company" as defined by the rule and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, we are not required to provide this information.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures . Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “ Exchange Act ”)) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the SEC is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and principal accounting officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

(b) Changes to Internal Control over Financial Reporting . We have undertaken, and will continue to undertake, an effort to comply with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. This effort, under the direction of senior management, includes the documentation, testing and review of our internal controls. During the course of these activities, we identified potential improvements to our internal controls over financial reporting, including some that we implemented in the first and second quarter of Fiscal 2012, largely the modification or expansion of internal process documentation, and some that we are currently evaluating for possible future implementation. During Fiscal 2012, we also commenced, but had not yet completed by June 30, 2013, the implementation of various software packages designed to more fully integrate our internal controls to reduce the potential for manual errors derived from multiple data entries. We expect to continue documentation, testing and review of our internal controls on an on-going basis and may identify other control deficiencies, possibly including material weaknesses, and other potential improvements to our internal controls in the future. We completed our ISO-9001 re-certification in June 2012 following consummation of the Thermal Imaging Asset Sale. We cannot guarantee that we will remedy any potential material weaknesses that may be identified in the future, or that we will continue to be able to comply with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.

Other than as described above, there have not been any other changes that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

In addition to the risk factors previously disclosed in Part II, Item 6, “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2012, we have identified the following additional risk factors:

Approximately $13.4 million of indebtedness is currently due and payable. If we are unable to restructure such indebtedness, it may impact our ability to continue as a going concern.

As of August 13, 2013, approximately $13.4 million of indebtedness has matured, and is therefore due and payable. We are currently in the process of negotiating with the respective lenders to restructure or extend the maturity dates of such indebtedness.

We will need to raise additional capital to fund our operations and service our debt, and if such capital is not available to us on a timely basis, on acceptable terms or at all, our operations could be seriously curtailed.

We will require additional capital to meet our working capital needs, fund our operations and meet our debt service obligations. No assurances can be given that any additional capital from financings or other sources will be available on a timely basis, on acceptable terms, or at all, or that the proceeds from any financings will be sufficient to address our near term liquidity requirements. If we are unable to obtain needed additional capital, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected, and we may be forced to curtail our operations.

As a result of the discontinuation of our Government Business, we are dependent on our cyber-security business.

As a result of the discontinuance of our Government Business on March 19, 2013, we are now dependent on our cyber security business for future revenue growth. No assurances can be given that our cyber security business will be successful, or if successful, that we will derive sufficient revenue to generate positive cash flow from operations.

Our ability to raise capital to fund continuing operations will be negatively impacted if we are unable to successfully develop our cyber security products.

Our ability to raise additional capital to fund its continuing operations and continue as a going concern will be negatively affected if we are unable to successfully develop our cyber security products. Additionally, our goodwill and intangible assets will be subject to impairment if we are unable to successfully develop our cyber security products.

We currently are under audit of final indirect rates related to fiscal years 2005 through 2012, related to our legacy government businesses.

We are currently under audit by the Defense Contract Audit Agency (“ DCAA ”) for our final indirect rate submissions for fiscal years 2005 through 2012. We believe the indirect costs have been properly recorded for the outstanding audit years. If the outcome of the outstanding audits results in unfavorable adjustments, there could be a material adverse effect on our results of operation and cash flow. Other than as set forth above, there have been no other material changes in our assessment of the risk factors affecting our business since those presented in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2012.
