Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with US GAAP for interim financial information and Rule 8.03 of Regulation S-X. They do not include all of the information and footnotes required by US GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The results of operations for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. For further information, refer to our financial statements as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and for the years then ended, including notes thereto in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, for the year ended December 31, 2010.

Basis of Presentation – The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of NeoMedia Technologies, Inc. and our wholly-owned subsidiaries.  We operate as one reportable segment.  All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

Use of Estimates – The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.  Changes in facts and circumstances may result in revised estimates, which are recorded in the period in which they become known.

Stock-Based Compensation -  FASB ASC 718, Stock Compensation , requires that all stock-based compensation be recognized as an expense in the financial statements and that such cost be measured at the grant date fair value of the award.  We account for modifications of terms of existing option grants as exchanges of the existing equity instruments for new instruments.  The fair value of the modified option at the grant date is compared with the value at that date of the original option immediately before its terms are modified.  Any excess fair value of the modified option over the original option is recognized as additional compensation expense.

Basic and Diluted Net Income (Loss) Per Share – Basic net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, we reported a net loss per share, and as such, basic and diluted loss per share were equivalent. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, we reported net income per share and included dilutive instruments in the fully diluted net income per share calculation.
The following is a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the basic and diluted net income (loss) per share calculations for each period:
