Business   NeoMedia, a Delaware corporation, was founded in 1989 and is headquartered in Boulder, Colorado. We have positioned ourselves to lead the development of 2D mobile barcode technology and infrastructure solutions that enable the mobile barcode ecosystem world-wide. NeoMedia harnesses the power of the mobile phone in innovative ways with state-of-the-art mobile barcode technology solutions. With this technology, mobile devices with cameras become barcode scanners, and this enables a range of practical applications including mobile marketing and mobile commerce. In addition, we offer licensing of our extensive intellectual property portfolio.
 
As we communicated in a Periodic Report on Form 8-K on July 29, 2014, we are restating certain of our financial statements by filing amendments to our previously filed Form 10-K for December 31, 2013 (and interim periodic reports on Form 10-Q). We and the SEC have concluded that certain modifications in the Company’s valuation methodology, deemed as accounting estimates by the Company, contained errors with respect to the valuation of convertible debentures and preferred shares issued by the Company, in that such methodology did not capture the potentially dilutive effect upon their conversion into common stock. Please see the disclosure in Note 2 entitled “Restatement to 2013 Reporting” for further information as these changes in valuation methodology has affected our previously filed report on Form 10-K for December 31, 2013.
