NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

Note 1 - Basis of Presentation and Liquidity

The accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2012, the consolidated statements of operations for the three and six months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, changes in stockholders’ equity for the six months ended March 31, 2012 and cash flows for the six months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 of Dynasil Corporation of America and subsidiaries, and the related information contained in these notes have been prepared by management and are unaudited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include normal recurring and nonrecurring items) necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles for the periods presented have been made. Interim operating results are not necessarily indicative of operating results for a full year.

The preparation of our unaudited consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the unaudited consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in the Company's annual financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted. It is suggested that these consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's September 30, 2011 Annual Report on Form 10-K previously filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Certain amounts as previously reported have been reclassified to conform to the current year financial statement preparation.

The Company has experienced an increase in accounts receivable due to delayed collections and a decrease in borrowing capacity due to high selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses for commercialization and research and development (“R&D”) activities for product improvements. This, added with an obligation to repurchase stock no later than May 29, 2012, has caused the Company to believe that it will not satisfy its financial covenants under the Sovereign Bank Loan Agreement as of June 30, 2012. Accordingly, the Company has reclassified the $8,028,688 of debt to Sovereign Bank as a short-term liability.  The Company is pursuing alternatives, including amending their bank covenant requirements to obtain short-term waivers and/or obtaining third-party financing. Management has begun discussions with relevant parties to each of the potential actions.  In addition, the Company plans to take internal steps to cut costs and reduce capital expenditures and to return its collection processes to their historical levels.  However, there can be no assurances that the Company will be successful in implementing any of these actions, or if the Company is successful, whether the terms will be favorable to the Company.

We consider events or transactions that have occurred after the unaudited consolidated balance sheet date of March 31, 2012, but prior to the filing of the unaudited consolidated financial statements with the SEC on this Form 10-Q, to provide additional evidence relative to certain estimates or to identify matters that require additional disclosure, as applicable. Subsequent events have been evaluated through the date of the filing of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q with the SEC.

Note 2 - Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of average cost or market. Cost is determined using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. Inventories consist of raw materials, work-in-process and finished goods. The Company evaluates inventory levels and expected usage on a periodic basis and records, as a charge to cost of revenue, any amounts required to reduce the carrying value to net realizable value.

Note 5 – Goodwill

There were no changes, aside from foreign exchange rate fluctuations, in the carrying value of goodwill during the six months ended March 31, 2012.

9

Note 6 – Earnings (Loss) Per Common Share

Basic earnings (loss) per common share is computed by dividing the net income applicable or loss attributable to common shares after preferred dividends paid, if applicable, by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period. Diluted earnings per common share adjusts basic earnings per share for the effects of common stock options, common stock warrants, convertible preferred stock and other potential dilutive common shares outstanding during the periods.

For purposes of computing diluted earnings per share, 535,619 common share equivalents related to stock options were assumed to be outstanding for the three and six months ended March 31, 2011. For the three and six months ended March 31, 2012, 20,485 shares of potential common stock related to stock options were excluded from the calculation of dilutive shares since we experienced a loss from continuing operations and the inclusion of potential shares would be anti-dilutive. In addition, as of March 31, 2012 and 2011, common stock options for 1,059,583 and 69,802 shares, respectively, with exercise prices above current quarterly average market price per share have been excluded from the calculation of earnings per share since their effect is anti-dilutive.

The computation of the weighted shares outstanding for the three months ended March 31 is as follows:

	Three Months Ended
	March 31,
	2012		2011
Weighted average shares outstanding
Common stock		15,002,818		15,245,850
Effect of dilutive securities
Stock Options		-0-		535,619
Dilutive Average Shares Outstanding		15,002,818		15,781,469

The computation of the weighted shares outstanding for the six months ended March 31 is as follows:

	Six Months Ended
	March 31,
	2012		2011
Weighted average shares outstanding
Common stock		15,091,356		13,955,273
Effect of dilutive securities
Stock Options		-0-		535,619
Dilutive Average Shares Outstanding		15,091,356		14,490,892

Note 7 - Stock Based Compensation

The fair value of the stock options granted is estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The weighted average assumptions for grants during the six months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 used in the Black-Scholes option pricing model were as follows:

	Six Months Ended			Six Months Ended
	March 31, 2012			March 31, 2011
Expected term in years		5 years			3 years
Risk-free interest rate		2.64	%		3.95	%
Expected volatility		93.62	%		85.21	%
Expected dividend yield		0.00	%		0.00	%

10

The expected volatility was determined with reference to the historical volatility of the Company's stock. The Company uses historical data to estimate option exercise and employee termination within the valuation model. The expected term of options granted represents the period of time that the options granted are expected to be outstanding. The risk-free interest rate for periods within the contractual life of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury rate in effect at the time of grant. The dividend yield is expected to be 0.00% because historically the Company has not paid dividends on common stock.

During the three months ended March 31, 2012, 43,960 stock options were granted at the exercise price of $3.03 per share. These options were granted as Directors’ Compensation for the twelve months ending January 31, 2013 and were fully exercisable when granted, and expire five years from the grant date. The stock-based compensation expense of $58,876 will be recognized over the requisite service period. During the three months ended March 31, 2012, 138,373 options were exercised at an exercise price of $1.58 per share in a cashless exercise, resulting in 41,205 common shares issued.

Note 8 – Segment, Customer and Geographical Reporting

Segment Financial Information

Dynasil’s business breaks down into two segments: products and technology (“Products and Technology”) and contract research (“Contract Research”). Within these segments, there is a segregation of reportable units based upon the organizational structure used to evaluate performance and make decisions on resource allocation, as well as availability and materiality of separate financial results consistent with that structure. The Products and Technology segment manufactures optical materials, components, coatings and specialized instruments used in various applications in the medical, industrial, and homeland security/defense sectors. The Company’s most recent new business venture, Dynasil Biomedical Corp. (“Dynasil Biomedical”) is reported within this segment. It has been determined that this new business venture will primarily pursue product commercialization of technologies and technology licensing opportunities, though there can be no assurances that any of these opportunities will become successfully commercialized. Dynasil’s Contract Research segment is one of the largest small business participants in U.S. government-funded research.

The Company’s segment information for the three months ended March 31, 2012 is summarized below:

Note 9 – Business Acquisition – Dynasil Biomedical

On April 14, 2011, Dynasil announced the incorporation of Dynasil Biomedical Corp. as a new business unit to pursue opportunities in the medical field. Through a purchase of assets, Dynasil Biomedical completed the purchase of specific rights to six biomedical technologies invented or co-invented by Dr. Daniel Ericson for $300,000 in cash. Dr. Ericson has joined Dynasil Biomedical as Scientific Lead for research and development. The asset purchase had no impact on the comparative unaudited financial information as reported.

Note 10 - Income Taxes

Dynasil Corporation of America and its wholly-owned subsidiaries file a consolidated federal income tax return.

The Company uses the asset and liability approach to account for income taxes. Under this approach, deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes and net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. The amount of deferred taxes on these temporary differences is determined using the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realized or the liability is settled, as applicable, based on tax rates, and tax laws, in the respective tax jurisdiction then in effect. Valuation allowances are provided if it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The provision for income taxes includes taxes currently payable, if any, plus the net change during the year in deferred tax assets and liabilities recorded by the Company.

The Company applies the authoritative provisions related to accounting for uncertainty in income taxes. As required by these provisions, the Company recognizes the financial statement benefit of a tax position only after determining that the relevant tax authority would more likely than not sustain the position following an audit. For tax positions meeting the more-likely-than-not threshold, the amount recognized in the financial statements is the largest benefit that has a greater than 50 percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the relevant tax authority. The Company has applied these provisions to all tax positions for which the statute of limitations remained open. There was no impact on the Company’s unaudited consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows as of March 31, 2012 and 2011. As of March 31, 2012 and 2011, the Company had no unrecognized tax benefits. The Company’s practice is to recognize interest and/or penalties related to income tax matters in interest and income tax expense. The Company currently has no federal or state tax examinations in progress.

14

The Company has Research and Experimentation tax credits available at both the state and local levels designed to encourage and reward companies for efforts in the areas of research and experimentation. As of March 31, 2012, the Company has federal and state tax credit carryovers totaling approximately $1,300,000, expiring through 2031. The Company’s income tax provision includes a tax benefit of an estimated $40,000 and $153,000 for Research and Experimentation credits attributable to the three and six months ended March 31, 2012, respectively.

The Company has approximately $490,000 in net operating loss carryforwards to offset certain future state income taxes expiring through 2026.

The Company files its tax returns as prescribed by the tax laws of the jurisdictions in which it operates. The Company’s tax filings for federal and state jurisdictions for the tax years from 2009 to 2011 are still subject to examination.

Note 11 – Obligation to Repurchase Stock

The former owners of RMD Instruments, LLC, which the Company acquired in 2008 for a combination of cash and shares of Dynasil common stock, have the right to require the Company to repurchase up to 1,000,000 shares of Dynasil common stock issued to them as partial consideration for the transaction at a repurchase price of $2.00 per share (the "Put Right"). As previously disclosed, on February 27, 2012, Dr. Gerald Entine, a former owner of RMD Instruments, LLC, exercised this Put Right to require the repurchase of a total of 928,773 shares of Dynasil common stock held by Dr. Entine and certain affiliates (“Entine”). By no later than May 29, 2012, the Company must pay Entine an aggregate purchase price of $1,857,546 for these shares. To the extent that the Company does not pay cash for these shares, it must issue to Entine a promissory note in payment of the remaining purchase price not paid in cash. According to the terms of the Put Right, any amount of purchase price evidenced by a promissory note would be amortized over a 3-year period to maturity and shall bear interest at the greater of (x) 10% or (y) the prime interest rate published by the Wall Street Journal on the closing date, plus 5%. In addition, any such promissory note shall be secured by the shares purchased with the promissory note.

Dr. Entine was previously a member of the Company’s board of directors until his retirement from the board effective as of the Company’s 2012 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.

There are an additional 71,227 shares of common stock outstanding that are subject to the Put Right, which could require additional payments by the Company if exercised, at the same $2 per share purchase price. The Put Right with respect to these additional shares will expire on July 1, 2012.

Note 12 – Financial Instruments

The fair value of financial instruments is determined by reference to observable market data and other valuation techniques as appropriate.  The Company has established a fair value hierarchy that priorities the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. Fair values determined by Level 1 inputs utilize quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Fair values identified by Level 2 inputs utilize observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the related assets or liabilities. Fair values identified by Level 3 inputs are unobservable data points and are used to measure fair value to the extent that observable inputs are not available. Unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use at pricing the asset or liability.

The carrying amount reported in the consolidated balance sheets for cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximates fair value because of the immediate or short-term maturity of these financial instruments. The only category of financial instruments where the difference between fair value and recorded book value could be notable is long-term debt. The fair value of long-term debt is determined using Level 2 inputs.  At March 31, 2012 and September 30, 2011, the carrying value of long-term debt approximates fair value because the underlying instruments are primarily at current market rates.

Note 13 – Debt

Long-term debt associated with the Sovereign Bank Loan Agreement has been reclassified to a current liability in the amount of $8,028,688 as the Company believes that it will not satisfy its financial covenants under the Sovereign Bank Loan Agreement as of June 30, 2012.

In addition, based on the exercise of the Put Right in February 2012, the Company has reflected its obligation to pay the aggregate purchase price of $1,857,546 assuming it will satisfy such obligation with the payment of a promissory note. Specifically, regarding such obligation, the Company has reflected $1,395,916 as long-term debt and the balance as the current of such long-term debt obligation.

Note 14 – Subsequent Events

On April 12, 2012, Dynasil Corporation of America (the “Company”) entered into Amendment No. 2 to Loan and Security Agreement (“Amendment No. 2”) with Sovereign Bank, N.A. (the “Lender”) which amends the Loan and Security Agreement, dated July 7, 2010, as amended by Amendment No. 1 to Loan and Security Agreement, dated April 1, 2011 (the “Original Loan Agreement”).

Amendment No. 2 extends the Scheduled Termination Date for the Revolving Line of Credit from July 7, 2012 to July 7, 2013 or such other later date as may be agreed to in writing by Lender, and makes certain adjustments to the required financial covenants, as described below.

Amendment No. 2 adjusts the consolidated maximum leverage ratio required by the Original Loan Agreement to equal to or less than (i) 3.00 to 1.00 for any period ended on or before December 31, 2011 or on or after December 31, 2012, (ii) 3.75 to 1.00 for the rolling four quarter period ended on March 31, 2012, (iii) 3.25 to 1.00 for the rolling four quarter period ending on June 30, 2012, and (iv) 3.25 to 1.00 for the rolling four quarter period ending on September 30, 2012. The required fixed charge coverage ratio for each of those periods had previously been equal to or less than 3.0 to 1.0.

Additionally, Amendment No. 2 adjusts the consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio required by the Original Loan Agreement to not less than (i) 1.20 to 1.00 for any period ended on or before December 31, 2011 or on or after December 31, 2012, (ii) 0.90 to 1.00 for the rolling four quarter period ended on March 31, 2012, (iii) 1.05 to 1.00 for the rolling four quarter period ending on June 30, 2012, and (iv) 1.10 to 1.00 for the rolling four quarter period ending on September 30, 2012. The consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio for each of those periods had previously been not less than 1.20 to 1.00.

Amendment No. 2 also adjusts the limit on Unfunded Capital Expenditures (as defined in the Original Loan Agreement) by the Company to $3,250,000.00 in the aggregate (tested as of the last day of each fiscal quarter ended after September 30, 2011 on a year-to-date basis). During each Fiscal Year of the Company ending after September 30, 2012, the Company shall not incur Unfunded Capital Expenditures in excess of $2,000,000.00 in the aggregate (tested as of the last day of each fiscal quarter ended after September 30, 2012 on a year-to-date basis). The limit on Unfunded Capital Expenditures had previously been $1,700,000 (tested as of the last day of each fiscal quarter ended after September 30, 2011 on a year-to-date basis).

The foregoing summary of the terms and conditions of Amendment No. 2 does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of Amendment No. 2 to Loan and Security Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 10-Q.

All debt under the Sovereign Bank Loan and Security Agreement has been recorded as a current liability as the Company believes that it will not satisfy its financial covenants under the Sovereign Bank Loan Agreement as of June 30, 2012.

The Company has evaluated subsequent events through the date that the financial statements were released.

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

The following management's discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and the notes thereto in the Dynasil Corporation of America ("Dynasil", the "Company" or "we") Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2011.

General Business Overview

Revenue for the second quarter of fiscal year 2012, which ended March 31, 2012, was $12.5 million, an increase of 2.9% compared with revenue of $12.1 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2011. Loss from Operations for the quarter was ($344,662) compared with Income from Operations of $816,858 for the quarter ended March 31, 2011. Loss before Taxes for the quarter was ($467,136) compared with Income before Taxes of $661,701 for the quarter ended March 31, 2011.  Net Loss was ($339,551) or ($0.02) per share for the quarter ended March 31, 2012, compared with Net Income of $396,216, or $0.03 per share, for the quarter ended March 31, 2011. Included in our business unit costs were expenses to support our growth initiatives with organic product development of specific product lines within Dynasil Products (previously referred to as RMD Instruments), our dual mode detector commercialization effort and development of Dynasil Biomedical Corp (“Dynasil Biomedical”) technologies, all within our Products and Technology segment. These investments include technology development activities, capital equipment depreciation, development of intellectual property, and staff additions in support of organic products, dual mode detector technology and our longer term product/technology pipeline which includes our biomedical portfolio. We anticipate the dual mode detector business will produce revenue beginning this fiscal year. Commercialization of technology from our extensive research and development portfolio and strategic acquisitions are expected to be the key drivers of our future growth and we plan to continue to invest in these growth opportunities, depending upon the availability of capital to fund these endeavors. At the current time, the Company is actively exploring commercialization opportunities in thin film digital x-rays, sensors for nondestructive testing and radiation dosimeters based on technologies developed at Radiation Monitoring Devices, Inc. (“RMD”). We are developing three specific technologies within Dynasil Biomedical with the goal to commercialize or license the most promising opportunities. These include tissue sealant, hypothermia induction and blood storage technology which is being jointly developed with Mayo Clinic. Provisional patents have been filed for certain technologies. No determination has been made as to the Company’s entry into these market segments; however, we anticipate decisions will be made on these opportunities within fiscal year 2012.

Revenue for the six months ended March 31, 2012 was $24,864,036, a 4.7% increase from $23,742,856 for the six months ended March 31, 2011. Revenue from our Contract Research segment (“Contract Research”) increased by 5.7% with continued high interest in our research capabilities from our largest governmental agency customers. Our Products and Technology segment (“Products and Technology”) had a revenue increase of 3.7%. Sales for the quarter ended December 31, 2011 were up 11.2% while sales for the quarter ended March 31, 2012 decreased 3.7%. We have noticed decreased sales in our optics businesses due to key customers working down inventories.

Gross Profit for the six months ended March 31, 2012 was $10,482,042, or 42.2% of sales, an 8.9% increase from $9,622,556, or 40.5% of sales, for the six months ended March 31, 2011.

Selling, general, and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses for the six months ended March 31, 2012 were $10,580,827, or 42.6% of sales. This was an increase from SG&A expenses of $8,069,983, or 34.0% of sales, for the six months ended March 31, 2011. Included in SG&A for the period, was $578,500 in stock compensation. The Contract Research segment had a 4.8% increase in SG&A commensurate with the increase in revenue for that segment over the prior period. The Products & Technology SG&A grew to 51.0% of sales for the six months ended March 31, 2012 compared to 32.5% for the six months ended March 31, 2011. Included in these costs is Dynasil Products’ initiative to revitalize all product lines with the goal of gaining market share through new product launches. Dynasil Products spent $713,000 on research and development efforts and $243,000 on sales and marketing in the six months ended March 31, 2012 toward the new product development effort. There was $149,000 spent on commercialization of dual mode detector business in the six months ended March 31, 2012. Finally, included in SG&A expenses during the six months ended March 31, 2012 was $453,000 for continuing development of the Dynasil Biomedical technologies purchased in April 2011.

Loss from Operations for the six months ended March 31, 2012 was ($98,785), a decrease of $1,651,358 from the prior year comparable period. As a percent of sales, the Loss from Operations for the six months ending March 31, 2012 was (0.4%) compared with Operating Income of 6.5% in 2011. The Contract Research segment had Income from Operations of 3.4% of sales for the six months ended March 31, 2012, which was essentially unchanged from the period ended March 31, 2011, which was also 3.4% of sales. The Products and Technology segment had Loss from Operations of ($546,168) or (4.7%) of sales for the six months ended March 31, 2012, compared with Income from Operations of $1,125,465 or 10.0% of sales for the six months ended March 31, 2011. The change was primarily caused by higher SG&A costs for revitalization of our product lines and commercialization of new technologies.

Net interest expense for the six months ended March 31, 2012 was $246,637 compared with $313,352 for the six months ended March 31, 2011, primarily due to the continued reduction in debt.

The Company recognized a tax benefit of $250,911 for the six months ended March 31, 2012 in recognition of specific federal and state tax losses and current period Research and Experimentation tax credits.

Net Income for the six months ended March 31, 2012 was ($94,511) or ($0.01) in basic earnings per share, compared with $771,398, or $0.06 in basic earnings per share, for the quarter ended March 31, 2011.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash decreased by $2,610,104 for the six months ended March 31, 2012 to $1,869,736. The primary sources of cash included non-cash stock compensation expense of $578,529 and depreciation and amortization of $713,669. These items totaled $1,292,198. There was a large increase in accounts receivable of $2,464,287 during the six months ended March 31, 2012. Revenues for the six months ended March 31, 2012 have remained at historical highs, but collections have not kept pace. Days Sales Outstanding (DSO) increased to 60.5 days at March 31, 2012 from 56.4 days at December 31, 2011 and 46.1 days at September 30, 2011. The $2,464,287 increase in accounts receivable is comprised of an increase of $1,640,244 from the Contract Research segment and an increase of $824,043 from the Products and Technology segment. In our Contracts Research segment, the required submission of some technical reports has been internally delayed, which has delayed payments. In addition, certain governmental agencies have adopted practices requiring more stringent paperwork in order for payment to be made. Once the processes are streamlined with the governmental agencies, there should be no further delays in payments. We believe that these paperwork submission difficulties are temporary and due in part to management transitions at RMD occurring earlier in the year. We do not believe that these procedural matters will ultimately affect the collectability of these receivables and accordingly, we have not made any increase in allowance for doubtful accounts for these receivables. The $824,043 increase in accounts receivable for the Products and Technology segment was due primarily to (i) delayed collections from the largest customer within the segment even though total revenue represents less than 10% of the segment (ii) slower customer payments in general and (iii) individual sale in excess of $200,000 to a large, well-established customer in the UK which has not yet been paid. DSO in this segment increased to 68.5 days from 60.8 days at December 31, 2011 and 61.3 days at September 30, 2011. The provision for doubtful accounts and sales returns was increased by $5,118. Activities are underway to improve collections in both segments and return to lower historical DSO levels. Inventories declined by $183,843 and inventory turns were 4.1 turns compared to 4.0 turns at September 30, 2011. Inventories are all within the Products and Technology segment.

Cash Used in Operating Activities

In total, including the increased investment in accounts receivable, operating activities used $1,107,639..

Cash Used in Investing and Financing Activities

Cash used for the purchase of property, plant and equipment was $687,328. Payments on long term debt were $949,002 as part of regularly schedule payments to Sovereign Bank, N.A. (“Sovereign” or the “Lender”) under the five year Term Debt and Acquisition Line of Credit. Net cash used in financing activities was $917,301.

Expenses and Operating Income

The Company has heavily invested in strategic initiatives for the future. These expenses have primarily been recognized in SG&A expenses and have reduced operating income. These expenses include organic product development within Dynasil Products, increased spending on intellectual property creation, staff additions in support of organic products, continued costs to commercialize the dual mode detector technology and spending to support our longer term product/technology pipeline which includes our biomedical portfolio. These expenses, without corresponding revenue, have reduced operating income and reduced cash flow and reduced borrowing capacity. SG&A expenses associated with Dynasil Product’s initiatives to revitalize all product lines was $713,000 in research & development and an additional $243,000 in sales & marketing efforts. There was $452,000 spent in the last six months for continuing development of the Dynasil Biomedical technologies purchased in April, 2011.

Sovereign Bank Loan Agreement

Due in part to the factors described above, on April 12, 2012, the Company entered into Amendment No. 2 to Loan and Security Agreement (“Amendment No. 2”) with Sovereign Bank which amended the Loan and Security Agreement, dated July 7, 2010, as amended by Amendment No. 1 to Loan and Security Agreement, dated April 1, 2011 (the “Original Loan Agreement”). As described in more detail below, the purpose of the amendment was to extend the term of the revolving line of credit and amend the financial covenants during the current period as the Company worked through the accounts receivable and SG&A expense issues described above.

Amendment No. 2 extended the Scheduled Termination Date for the Revolving Line of Credit from July 7, 2012 to July 7, 2013 or such other later date as may be agreed to in writing by Lender, and made certain adjustments to the required financial covenants, as described below.

Amendment No. 2 adjusted the consolidated maximum leverage ratio required by the Original Loan Agreement to equal to or less than (i) 3.00 to 1.00 for any period ended on or before December 31, 2011 or on or after December 31, 2012, (ii) 3.75 to 1.00 for the rolling four quarter period ended on March 31, 2012, (iii) 3.25 to 1.00 for the rolling four quarter period ending on June 30, 2012, and (iv) 3.25 to 1.00 for the rolling four quarter period ending on September 30, 2012. The required fixed charge coverage ratio for each of those periods had previously been equal to or less than 3.0 to 1.0. The Company’s ratio at March 31, 2012 was 3.56 to 1.00.

Additionally, Amendment No. 2 adjusted the consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio required by the Original Loan Agreement to not less than (i) 1.20 to 1.00 for any period ended on or before December 31, 2011 or on or after December 31, 2012, (ii) 0.90 to 1.00 for the rolling four quarter period ended on March 31, 2012, (iii) 1.05 to 1.00 for the rolling four quarter period ending on June 30, 2012, and (iv) 1.10 to 1.00 for the rolling four quarter period ending on September 30, 2012. The consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio for each of those periods had previously been not less than 1.20 to 1.00. The Company’s ratio at March 31, 2012 was .99 to 1.00.

Amendment No. 2 also adjusted the limit on Unfunded Capital Expenditures (as defined in the Original Loan Agreement) by the Company to $3,250,000 in the aggregate (tested as of the last day of each fiscal quarter ended after September 30, 2011 on a year-to-date basis). During each Fiscal Year of the Company ending after September 30, 2012, the Company shall not incur Unfunded Capital Expenditures in excess of $2,000,000.00 in the aggregate (tested as of the last day of each fiscal quarter ended after September 30, 2012 on a year-to-date basis). The limit on Unfunded Capital Expenditures had previously been $1,700,000 (tested as of the last day of each fiscal quarter ended after September 30, 2011 on a year-to-date basis). The Company’s unfunded capital expenditures were $687,328 at March 31, 2012.

The Company was in compliance with all financial covenants, as amended, at March 31, 2012. See “Liquidity Outlook” below.

Obligation to Repurchase Stock

The former owners of RMD Instruments, LLC, which the Company acquired in 2008 for a combination of cash and shares of Dynasil common stock, have the right to require the Company to repurchase up to 1,000,000 shares of Dynasil common stock issued to them as partial consideration for the transaction at a repurchase price of $2.00 per share (the "Put Right"). As previously disclosed, on February 27, 2012, Dr. Gerald Entine, a former owner of RMD Instruments, LLC, exercised this Put Right to require the repurchase of a total of 928,773 shares of Dynasil common stock held by Dr. Entine and certain affiliates (“Entine”). By no later than May 29, 2012, the Company must pay Entine an aggregate purchase price of $1,857,546 for these shares. To the extent that the Company does not pay cash for these shares, it must issue to Entine a promissory note in payment of the remaining purchase price not paid in cash. According to the terms of the Put Right, any amount of purchase price evidenced by a promissory note would be amortized over a 3-year period to maturity and shall bear interest at the greater of (x) 10% or (y) the prime interest rate published by the Wall Street Journal on the closing date, plus 5%. In addition, any such promissory note shall be secured by the shares purchased with the promissory note.

Dr. Entine was previously a member of the Company’s board of directors until his retirement from the board effective as of the Company’s 2012 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.

20

There are an additional 71,227 shares of common stock outstanding that are subject to the Put Right, which could require additional payments by the Company if exercised, at the same $2 per share purchase price. The Put Right with respect to these additional shares will expire on July 1, 2012. 

Liquidity Outlook

Due to the delay in collections relating to the processing of the Company’s invoices with governmental customers, the increased spending on commercialization and R&D activities and the additional liquidity needs created by the exercise of the Put Right, the Company believes it will not satisfy its financial covenants under the Sovereign Bank Loan Agreement as of June 30, 2012 unless it takes one or more of the actions described below.

To address compliance with its financial covenants and to maintain sufficient capital resources to meet its anticipated cash needs for working capital for the next 12 months, the Company is pursuing alternatives, including amending bank covenant requirements to obtain short-term waivers and/or obtaining third-party financing. Management has begun discussions with relevant parties to each of the potential actions. In addition, the Company plans to take internal steps to cut costs and reduce capital expenditures and to return its collection processes to their historical levels. However, there can be no assurances that the Company will be successful in implementing any of these actions, or if the Company is successful, whether the terms will be favorable to the Company. At the time of the filing of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, given the preliminary stage of the Company’s discussions with its Lender and others and the related uncertainty, the Company has reclassified the long-term debt associated with the Sovereign Bank Loan Agreement as a current liability amount of $8,028,688.

In the event of a future financial covenant breach, the Sovereign Bank Loan Agreement permits the Lender to accelerate the indebtedness and terminate the Loan Agreement, which would cause all amounts outstanding, including all accrued interest and unpaid fees, to become immediately due and payable. As described above, management has begun discussions with the Lender regarding the possible need for a waiver or amendment of the financial covenants, however there can be no assurance that the waiver or amendment will be received or that there will not be a material cost for obtaining such a waiver or amendment. Any such action taken by the Lender could result in the Company’s having to refinance the Loan Agreement and obtain an alternative source of financing. There is no assurance that such financing would be obtained, or if such refinancing is obtained, that the terms of a new facility would be on terms comparable to the current Loan Agreement. If the Company is unable to obtain such financing, its operations and financial condition would be materially adversely affected and it would be forced to seek an alternative source of liquidity, such as by selling additional securities to continue operations, or to limit its operations.

Strategy to Commercialize our Advanced Technology

Our principal business strategy is to employ our contract research, product development and technological capabilities to establish leading positions in markets including homeland security, industrial and medical. We believe that we can achieve this strategy by: 1) developing and expanding our research portfolio; 2) commercializing the technologies coming from our Contract Research segment; 3) growing organically through investment in existing products; 4) acquiring new technologies or pathways to market to help accelerate commercialization of our technologies into our primary security and medical markets; and 5) identifying and investing in those technologies with the greatest revenue and growth potential in the market.

To achieve our strategy we are focusing on:

· Building a strong team of business and marketing leadership;

· Increasing our effectiveness across the organization through a series of operational initiatives, enabling us to expand into new product lines and penetrate new markets;

· Further strengthening our technology pipeline by expanding business development and by enhancing our intellectual property estate; and

21

· Executing a focused acquisition strategy that leverages our research and technology expertise and aligns acquisition dollars with projects closest to field readiness.

Contract Research – the Science Behind our Technology

Our Contract Research business unit, RMD, is among the largest small business participants in U.S. government-funded research, performing research and development activities for government agencies including Department of Energy, Department of Defense, Department of Homeland Security, Domestic Nuclear Detection Office, National Institutes of Health, and NASA.

RMD develops advanced technology in materials, sensors and prototype instruments that detect, use or measure radiation, light, magnetism or sound for use in security, medical and industrial applications. RMD has technology practices in material science, radiation detection, digital imaging technology, magnetic imaging, laser optics and photonics.

For more than 25 years, RMD has successfully conducted government research under the auspices of the Small Business Innovation Research (“SBIR”) program. In recent years, RMD has augmented its SBIR research with larger, competitively bid government research and development contracts. To grow our research portfolio within the federal government, we are broadening our relationships within key federal funding agencies and the U.S. military. Our research initiatives are aligned with our focus on the homeland security, medical and industrial markets. As of March 31, 2012, RMD had a contract backlog of approximately 18 months.

We believe that research projects provide an important source for new commercial products in areas such as medical imaging, industrial sensors, critical care and point of care diagnostics and homeland security. For example, precision instrumentation in our Products & Technology segment, including our lead paint analyzer and a medical probe for cancer surgery, emanated from the RMD portfolio. Our government-funded research work also has spawned programs such as our dual-mode radiation detection technology.

Intellectual Property

During FY 2011, we were granted five new U.S. patents and have filed 25 new patent applications. Our current portfolio is 41 issued and 54 pending applications. We believe that intellectual property represents an important strategic advantage for us. As a result, we recently established a patent committee to help broaden the value of our intellectual property estate. The committee is strengthening the identification of intellectual property within the Company by implementing a broad based vetting process to specifically understand product definition, technical maturity, the value proposition, competition, and market size to ensure that we develop IP that maximizes the market value of our research. This is consistent with our strategy and will allow us to protect selected technologies that we believe have commercial potential – either through product offerings or licensing agreements.

Products & Technology – Bringing Technology to Market

Our Products & Technology segment includes six business units that manufacture specialized precision instruments, optical materials, components, and coatings for various applications in the medical, industrial, and homeland security/defense sectors.

The largest business unit within our Products & Technology segment manufactures precision instruments such as handheld lead paint analyzers, medical probes that help surgeons detect cancer tracers, thereby enabling more effective surgical procedures, and a radiation imaging camera system. Previously referred to as RMD Instruments, this business unit has been renamed Dynasil Products.

We have continued investments in our pipeline of commercial product opportunities in homeland security and medical technology. Our Products & Technology businesses are helping to fund the commercial launch of our dual mode detector as well as evaluation, development and testing of certain assets within our biomedical technology portfolio.

We have begun to implement a Product Realization Process designed to support the evaluation, assessment, development and commercialization of our technologies. Concurrently, we will be screening technologies with this tool to develop Dynasil’s pipeline of commercial technology opportunities. This process also will serve to identify licensing or acquisition opportunities to help speed our offerings to market.

22

In conjunction with our Product Realization Process, we are building the foundation for an enhanced product development, engineering and management capability within Dynasil for those technologies that we choose to commercialize. This process also effectively provides a single resource to evaluate our design for manufacturability, contract manufacturing pathways, cost of goods and pricing, as well as our launch and distribution strategies.

These initiatives will be managed within our Dynasil Products business unit as it will be the commercial engine for the company generating income through organic programs and technology licensing opportunities.

Dynasil is also investing in organic product development in 2012. Guided by our product realization process, our product development team is undertaking simultaneous and extensive product line updates to improve features and functionality on our lead paint analyzer, medical probe and radiation imaging camera. In April, we announced the launch of our LPXpro Lead Paint Analyzer.

Product Pipeline

One of our current commercialization programs is our dual mode radiation detection technology. Our dual mode technology was developed by RMD under a program for the Department of Homeland Security for use in locating nuclear bombs or nuclear materials at our nation’s ports and borders. This technology is of critical importance to our national security, as well as other radiation detection applications, such as nuclear power plant safety.

Our dual mode detector technology is designed to be a single detector that replaces two detector subsystems – the gamma radiation detector and also the helium-3 detectors for neutrons. Increasing our value proposition is the fact that the stockpile of the chemical element helium-3, a byproduct of nuclear weapons production, is in critically short supply. The stockpile of helium-3 has been drawn down over the past ten years, as the federal government has increased its use in neutron detectors to help prevent nuclear and radiological material from being smuggled into the U.S.

In order to accelerate the pace of this technology to market, and to establish manufacturing capacity, in July 2010 we acquired Hilger Crystals, a leading manufacturer of scintillation crystals based in Margate, Kent, U.K. During the 2011 fiscal year, our specialized furnaces began pilot production of our proprietary scintillation crystals. Additional furnaces have been fabricated and tested, installed and commissioned during the first half of Fiscal Year 2012.

Potential applications for our synthetic crystals include homeland security, baggage scanning, medical imaging, oil exploration and military. During the fourth quarter of 2011, we made progress during developing commercial relationships with lead original equipment manufacturer (“OEM”) customers to make the dual mode technology available to several markets. We expect to deliver our dual mode detectors to OEM customers for beta testing with early adopters and begin to produce revenue in fiscal year 2012.

As part of our product pipeline review, we are continuing our efforts to evaluate additional promising technologies with commercial potential in the security, medical and industrial markets as we put our product realization process in place. Early stage opportunities currently under evaluation include dosimeters, thin film digital x-rays, sensors for non-destructive testing and certain biomedical technologies.

· Dosimeters: We are developing compact, low cost radiation badges (dosimeters) for potential military, industrial, medical and consumer applications. The project is being funded by the DOD’s Defense Threat Reduction Agency. We have partially completed shipments of 150 prototypes for field evaluation. The Company is researching the potential customer base and marketability of this potential product. According to Introductory Profile 2010 on dosimetryimaging.com, the total dosimeter market size is currently about $500 million.

23

· Thin film digital X-rays: RMD is developing a family of thin film scintillators that – as a component – make possible digital X-ray detectors with higher image resolution and faster rates of image capture, all at a lower effective X-ray dose to the patient. Thicker variations of these films offer promise of lower-cost, higher-performance substitutes for use in CT, SPECT and PET imaging system detectors for medical, industrial and domestic security applications. An August 2011 report by Nanomarkets LC indicated that the area of thin film scintillators used is expected to grow from 72 million cm² in 2011 to 258 million cm² in 2018. According to the PET/SPECT Report dated November 10, 2010 from the firm Markets and Markets, the market for PET/SPECT imaging systems – of which our technology is a component — is expected to grow from $6.8 billion in 2010 to $10.3 billion in 2015.

· Sensors for non-destructive testing: We are developing a product with an enhanced capability to detect cracks in high value components such as aircraft wings and jet engine turbine blades at a higher rate of speed. Unlike conventional probes that use hand wound coils, our advanced technology uses solid state sensors with high sensitivity to magnetic fields and low noise characteristics. When fully developed, this emerging technology could dramatically improve the ability and speed to inspect high value components. During the fourth quarter of 2011, we reached agreement to co-develop and evaluate the advanced technology on aircraft engine applications with an early adopter customer.

· Biomedical technologies: In April 2011, we acquired the rights to six biomedical technologies from Dr. Daniel Ericson, a former hematologist at the Mayo Clinic, which jointly owns rights to certain of the technologies acquired. The six purchased technology rights include a method that could significantly extend the storage time for red blood cells as well as enhancing the quality of those cells, a tuberculosis test with the potential to provide a rapid (one hour) test, a high tensile strength tissue sealant developed for both topical and internal bleeding that could accelerate clot formation, and a set of technologies focused on point of care diagnostics for assessing hemophilia, blood coagulation and cardiovascular risk. The Dynasil Biomedical technology portfolio is being managed by and has become part of our Dynasil Products business unit which already has a presence and a proven track record in medical diagnostics. We will seek opportunities to license these technologies as well as obtain research grants with the Mayo Clinic to advance several of the development-stage technologies for various therapeutic applications.

All of these technologies are in early stages of development and may require significant investment to support further development, regulatory approval and commercialization. While Dynasil currently believes that these technologies represent exciting opportunities, there can be no assurances that any of these technologies will be successfully commercialized.

Strategic Acquisition Targets

We are focused on completing new acquisitions in the homeland security, medical and industrial markets, where the Company has core competencies. Future acquisition targets will include businesses that enable us to acquire advanced products or technologies to expand our product portfolio, or to gain complementary capabilities, such as manufacturing and distribution, for our current businesses and for technologies originating from the Company’s research engine.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

There have been no material changes in our critical accounting policies or critical accounting estimates since September 30, 2011. We have not adopted any accounting policies since September 30, 2011 that have or will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. For further discussion of our accounting policies see the “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2011 as well as the notes in this Form 10-Q.

The accounting policies that reflect our more significant estimates, judgments and assumptions and which we believe are the most critical to aid in fully understanding and evaluating our reported financial results include the following:

Revenue Recognition

Revenue from sales of products is recognized at the time title and the risks and rewards of ownership pass. Revenue from research and development activities is derived generally from the following types of contracts: reimbursement of costs plus fees, fixed price or time and material type contracts. Revenue is recognized when the products are shipped per customers’ instructions, the contract has been executed, the contract or sales price is fixed or determinable, delivery of services or products has occurred and the Company’s ability to collect the contract price is considered reasonably assured.

24

Government funded services revenues from cost plus contracts are recognized as costs are incurred on the basis of direct costs plus allowable indirect costs and an allocable portion of the contracts’ fixed fees. Revenue from fixed-type contracts is recognized under the percentage of completion method with estimated costs and profits included in contract revenue as work is performed. Revenues from time and materials contracts are recognized as costs are incurred at amounts generally commensurate with billing amounts. Recognition of losses on projects is taken as soon as the loss is reasonably determinable. The Company has no current accrual provision for potential losses on existing research projects based on Management expectations as well as historical experience.

The majority of the Company’s contract research revenue is derived from the United States government and government related contracts. Such contracts have certain risks which include dependence on future appropriations and administrative allotment of funds and changes in government policies. Costs incurred under United States government contracts are subject to audit. The Company believes that the results of such audits will not have a material adverse effect on its financial position or its results of operations.

Valuation of Long-Lived Assets, Intangible Assets and Goodwill

Goodwill

Goodwill and intangible assets which have indefinite lives are subject to annual impairment tests. Goodwill is tested by reviewing the carrying value compared to the fair value at the reporting unit level. Fair value for the reporting unit is derived using the income approach. Under the income approach, fair value is calculated based on the present value of estimated future cash flows. Assumptions by management are necessary to evaluate the impact of operating and economic changes and to estimate future cash flows. Management’s evaluation includes assumptions on future growth rates and cost of capital that are consistent with internal projections and operating plans.

The Company generally performs its annual impairment testing of goodwill during the fourth quarter of its fiscal year, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the assets might be impaired. The Company tests impairment at the reporting unit level using the two-step process. The Company’s primary reporting units tested for impairment are Radiation Monitoring Devices, which comprises our Contract Research segment, Dynasil Products (previously known as RMD Instruments), which is a component of our Products and Technology segment, and Hilger Crystals, also a component of our Products and Technology segment.

Step one of our impairment testing compares the carrying value of the reporting unit to its fair value. The carrying value represents the net book value of the net assets of the reporting unit or simply the equity of the reporting unit if the reporting unit is the entire entity. The Company estimates fair value using a discounted cash flow methodology which calculates fair value based on the present value of estimated future cash flows. Estimating future cash flows requires significant judgment and includes making assumptions about projected growth rates, industry-specific factors, working capital requirements, weighted average cost of capital, and current and anticipated operating conditions. Assumptions by management are necessary to evaluate the impact of operating and economic changes. The Company’s evaluation includes assumptions on future growth rates and cost of capital that are consistent with internal projections and operating plans. The use of different assumptions or estimates for future cash flows could produce different results. The Company regularly assesses the estimates based on the actual performance of our reporting units.

If the carrying value of a reporting unit is greater than its fair value, step two of the impairment testing process is performed to determine the amount of impairment, if any, to be recognized. Step two requires the Company to estimate an implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill by allocating the fair value of the reporting unit to all of the assets and liabilities other than goodwill. An impairment then exists if the carrying value of the goodwill is greater than the goodwill’s implied fair value. With respect to the Company's annual goodwill impairment testing performed during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2011, step one of the testing determined the estimated fair values of Radiation Monitoring Devices and Hilger Crystals substantially exceeded their carrying values by more than 20%. The estimated fair value of the Dynasil Products (formerly known as RMD Instruments) reporting unit narrowly exceeded its carrying value. Therefore, the Company undertook a step two analysis by performing essentially a new purchase price allocation as of the date of the impairment test. Values were determined of both originally recognized assets and any new assets that may have been unrecognized at the time of the original transaction, but were developed between the acquisition date and the test date. The result was confirmation that the residual value of goodwill was higher than the carrying value. Accordingly, the Company concluded that no impairment had occurred.

25

Intangible Assets

The Company’s intangible assets consist of an acquired customer base of Optometrics, LLC, acquired customer relationships and trade names of RMD Instruments, LLC, and acquired backlog and know how of Radiation Monitoring Devices, Inc. and purchased biomedical technologies within Dynasil Biomedical Corp. The Company amortizes its intangible assets with definitive lives over their useful lives, which range from 4 to 15 years, based on the time period the Company expects to receive the economic benefit from these assets. No impairment charge was recorded during the periods ended March 31, 2012 and 2011.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company’s long-lived assets include property, plant and equipment and intangible assets subject to amortization. The Company evaluates long-lived assets for recoverability whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that an asset may have been impaired. In evaluating an asset for recoverability, the Company estimates the future cash flow expected to result from the use of the asset and eventual disposition. If the expected future undiscounted cash flow is less than the carrying amount of the asset, an impairment loss, equal to the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value of the asset, is recognized.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts Receivable

We perform ongoing credit evaluations of our customers and adjust credit limits based upon payment history and the customer's current credit worthiness, as determined by our review of their current credit information. We continuously monitor collections and payments from our customers and maintain a provision for estimated credit losses based upon our historical experience and any specific customer collection issues that we have identified. While such credit losses have historically been minimal, within our expectations and the provisions established, we cannot guarantee that we will continue to experience the same credit loss rates that we have in the past. A significant change in the liquidity or financial position of any of our significant customers could have a material adverse effect on the collectability of our accounts receivable and our future operating results.

Stock-Based Compensation

We account for stock-based compensation using fair value. Compensation costs are recognized for stock options granted to employees and directors. Options and warrants granted to employees and non-employees are recorded as an expense over the requisite service period based on the grant date estimated fair value of the grant, determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model.

Income Taxes

As part of the process of preparing our consolidated financial statements, we are required to estimate our income tax provision (benefit) in each of the jurisdictions in which we operate. This process involves estimating our current income tax provision (benefit) together with assessing temporary differences resulting from differing treatment of items for tax and accounting purposes. These differences result in deferred tax assets and liabilities, which are included within our consolidated balance sheets. We regularly evaluate our ability to recover the reported amount of our deferred income taxes considering several factors, including our estimate of the likelihood of the Company generating sufficient taxable income in future years during the period over which temporary differences reverse.

RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

In May 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-04 (ASU 2011-04), Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs. ASU 2011-04 clarifies some existing concepts, eliminates wording differences between U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”), and in some limited cases, changes some principles to achieve convergence between U.S. GAAP and IFRS. ASU 2011-04 results in a consistent definition of fair value and common requirements for measurement of and disclosure about fair value between U.S. GAAP and IFRS. ASU 2011-04 also expands the disclosures for fair value measurements that are estimated using significant unobservable (Level 3) inputs. ASU 2011-04 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. The adoption of this accounting standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, cash flows and disclosures.

In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-05, “Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Presentation of Comprehensive Income.” ASU No. 2011-05 eliminates the option to present components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of shareholders’ equity. All non-owner changes in shareholders’ equity instead must be presented either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. ASU 2011-05 is to be adopted retrospectively and will be effective for annual periods beginning after December 2011. The adoption of ASU 2011-05 will not have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows, as the guidance only changes the presentation of financial information. In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-12 deferring the effective date for implementation of ASU 2011-05 related only to reclassification out of accumulated other comprehensive income until a later date to be determined after further consideration by the FASB.

In September 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-08, “Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Goodwill for Impairment.” ASU No. 2011-08 provides companies an option to perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether further goodwill impairment testing is necessary. If, as a result of the qualitative assessment, it is determined that it is more likely than not that a reporting unit’s fair value is less than its carrying amount, the two-step quantitative impairment test is required. Otherwise, no further testing is required. ASU No. 2011-08 will be effective for the Company for goodwill impairment tests performed in the fiscal year ending September 30, 2013, with early adoption permitted. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Forward-Looking Statements

The statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q which are not historical facts, are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements regarding future events and our future results are based on current expectations, estimates, forecasts, and projections and the beliefs and assumptions of our management, including, without limitation, our expectations regarding results of operations, our compliance with the financial covenants under our loan agreement with Sovereign Bank, and our efforts to seek an amendment or waiver of the financial covenants under our loan agreement, seek an amendment of the put option exercised in February 2012 and/or seek additional outside financing, in each case as described under the “Liquidity and Capital Resources” section of Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, the commercialization of our products including our dual mode detectors, our development of new technologies including at Dynasil Biomedical, the adequacy of our current financing sources to fund our current operations, our growth initiatives and the put right exercised in February 2012, our capital expenditures and the strength of our intellectual property portfolio. These forward-looking statements may be identified by the use of words such as “may,” “could,” “expect,” “estimate,” “anticipate,” “continue” or similar terms, though not all forward-looking statements contain such words. The actual results of the future events described in such forward-looking statements could differ materially from those stated in such forward-looking statements due to a number of important factors. These factors that could cause actual results to differ from those anticipated or predicted include, without limitation, our ability to develop and commercialize our products, the size and growth of the potential markets for our products and our ability to serve those markets, the rate and degree of market acceptance of any of our products, general economic conditions, costs and availability of raw materials and management information systems, our ability to obtain and maintain intellectual property protection for our products, competition, the loss of key management and technical personnel, our ability to obtain timely payment of our invoices to governmental customers, litigation, the effect of governmental regulatory developments, the availability of financing sources, our ability to identify and execute on acquisition opportunities and integrate such acquisitions into our business, and seasonality, as well as the uncertainties set forth in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and from time to time in the Company's other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company disclaims any intention or obligation to update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Dynasil Corporation of America Reports Results for the Second Quarter Fiscal 2012
- Company Hosts Earnings Conference Call at 5:00 p.m. (ET) Today

Watertown, MA, May 15, 2012 – Dynasil Corporation of America (NASDAQ: DYSL), a leading developer of sensing, detection and analysis technology for homeland security, medical and industrial applications, today announced financial results for the fiscal 2012 second quarter ended March 31, 2012.

Net revenue for the second quarter of fiscal 2012 increased 3% to $12.5 million from $12.1 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2011. Contract Research segment revenue increased to $6.9 million from $6.4 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2011. The Products and Technology segment posted revenue of $5.5 million, down from $5.7 million a year earlier.

“Higher second-quarter revenue reflected the continued strength of our Contract Research segment, with business from a range of sources including the U.S. Department of Homeland Security and the Department of Energy,” said Dynasil President and Chief Executive Officer Steven Ruggieri. “Our contract research backlog remains a robust 18 months. While our Products and Technology segment reported a slight decrease in second-quarter revenues, we expect the segment’s sales to pick up in the coming quarters and into fiscal year 2013 with our new product and technology launches.”

Gross margin improved to 41.6% of net revenue for the second quarter of fiscal 2012 from 38.9% of net revenue for the same period of fiscal 2011, reflecting higher revenue in the Contract Research segment and an improved sales mix in the Products and Technology segment.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the second quarter of fiscal 2012 totaled $5.5 million, versus $3.9 million for the comparable period of 2011, reflecting significant investment in the Company’s Product and Technology pipeline to support further growth. These investments include technology development activities, capital equipment, development of intellectual property and staff additions in support of organic product development, dual mode nuclear detector technology and Dynasil’s biomedical technology portfolio.

Net loss for the second quarter of fiscal 2012 was approximately $340,000, or $0.02 per share, compared with net income of $396,000, or $0.03 per diluted share, in the second quarter of fiscal 2011, reflecting increased investments in product development and commercialization initiatives.

Liquidity

As previously disclosed, on February 27, 2012 a former owner of RMD Instruments, LLC exercised a Put Right for the Company to purchase a total of 928,773 shares of Dynasil common stock, which at $2 per share will require a payment by Dynasil of $1,857,546 by May 29, 2012. The Company may pay this obligation with cash, a promissory note or a combination of the two. This liability created by the Put Right, coupled with a temporary delay in collections relating to the processing of the Company’s invoices with governmental customers as well as increased spending on commercialization and R&D activities, has created significant liquidity constraints for Dynasil that the Company is currently seeking to address with its lender, Sovereign Bank, and through other actions, as more fully discussed in Dynasil’s Form 10-Q filed today with Securities and Exchange Commission.

Recent Highlights

Dynasil this month announced that its RMD, Inc. subsidiary received the Tibbetts Award for its “Model of Excellence” in the Small Business Innovation Research program. RMD was among only 19 companies to receive the award, which recognizes RMD’s role in advancing the government’s research and development priorities in next-generation gamma-ray and neutron detectors through technology innovation.

“We are honored to receive this prestigious award,” Ruggieri said. “Our strong contract research backlog and deep product pipeline reflect our focus on making technology innovation the cornerstone of our commercialization strategy. During the first quarter we continued to advance this strategy with the filing of nine new patent applications in the second quarter, bringing our portfolio to 40 issued and 49 pending applications.”

Business Outlook

“We have made significant operational progress on our strategic initiatives through the first half of fiscal 2012, and we are excited about our prospects,” Ruggieri said. “We are developing multiple pathways to market through organic growth, acquisitions and licensing opportunities. With two product rollouts planned in the coming months, we have exciting catalysts that we believe will further our growth objectives in the years ahead. As we discussed in the first quarter, our strategic investments will remain an important theme as we develop and expand our product pipeline. While some of our technologies are in the evaluation and development stage, these investments are indicative of the commitment that the Dynasil board and management team are making to build shareholder value for the long term.”

Conference Call Information

Dynasil Corporation will host a conference call for investors and analysts at 5:00 p.m. ET today. The call will be hosted by Dynasil President and Chief Executive Officer Steven Ruggieri and Chief Financial Officer Richard Johnson. They will be joined on the call by Gordon Lewis, general manager of the Company’s Dynasil Products business unit. Those who wish to listen to the conference call and view presentation slides should visit the Investor Information section of the Company’s website at www.dynasil.com. The call also may be accessed by dialing (877) 407-5790 or (201) 689-8328. For interested individuals unable to join the live conference call, a webcast replay will be available on the Company’s website for one year.

Note 1 - Basis of Presentation and Liquidity

The accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2012, the consolidated statements of operations for the three and six months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, changes in stockholders’ equity for the six months ended March 31, 2012 and cash flows for the six months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 of Dynasil Corporation of America and subsidiaries, and the related information contained in these notes have been prepared by management and are unaudited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include normal recurring and nonrecurring items) necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles for the periods presented have been made. Interim operating results are not necessarily indicative of operating results for a full year.

The preparation of our unaudited consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the unaudited consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in the Company's annual financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted. It is suggested that these consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's September 30, 2011 Annual Report on Form 10-K previously filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Certain amounts as previously reported have been reclassified to conform to the current year financial statement preparation.

The Company has experienced an increase in accounts receivable due to delayed collections and a decrease in borrowing capacity due to high selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses for commercialization and research and development (“R&D”) activities for product improvements. This, added with an obligation to repurchase stock no later than May 29, 2012, has caused the Company to believe that it will not satisfy its financial covenants under the Sovereign Bank Loan Agreement as of June 30, 2012. Accordingly, the Company has reclassified the $8,028,688 of debt to Sovereign Bank as a short-term liability.  The Company is pursuing alternatives, including amending their bank covenant requirements to obtain short-term waivers and/or obtaining third-party financing. Management has begun discussions with relevant parties to each of the potential actions.  In addition, the Company plans to take internal steps to cut costs and reduce capital expenditures and to return its collection processes to their historical levels.  However, there can be no assurances that the Company will be successful in implementing any of these actions, or if the Company is successful, whether the terms will be favorable to the Company.

We consider events or transactions that have occurred after the unaudited consolidated balance sheet date of March 31, 2012, but prior to the filing of the unaudited consolidated financial statements with the SEC on this Form 10-Q, to provide additional evidence relative to certain estimates or to identify matters that require additional disclosure, as applicable. Subsequent events have been evaluated through the date of the filing of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q with the SEC.

Note 11 – Obligation to Repurchase Stock

The former owners of RMD Instruments, LLC, which the Company acquired in 2008 for a combination of cash and shares of Dynasil common stock, have the right to require the Company to repurchase up to 1,000,000 shares of Dynasil common stock issued to them as partial consideration for the transaction at a repurchase price of $2.00 per share (the "Put Right"). As previously disclosed, on February 27, 2012, Dr. Gerald Entine, a former owner of RMD Instruments, LLC, exercised this Put Right to require the repurchase of a total of 928,773 shares of Dynasil common stock held by Dr. Entine and certain affiliates (“Entine”). By no later than May 29, 2012, the Company must pay Entine an aggregate purchase price of $1,857,546 for these shares. To the extent that the Company does not pay cash for these shares, it must issue to Entine a promissory note in payment of the remaining purchase price not paid in cash. According to the terms of the Put Right, any amount of purchase price evidenced by a promissory note would be amortized over a 3-year period to maturity and shall bear interest at the greater of (x) 10% or (y) the prime interest rate published by the Wall Street Journal on the closing date, plus 5%. In addition, any such promissory note shall be secured by the shares purchased with the promissory note.

Dr. Entine was previously a member of the Company’s board of directors until his retirement from the board effective as of the Company’s 2012 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.

There are an additional 71,227 shares of common stock outstanding that are subject to the Put Right, which could require additional payments by the Company if exercised, at the same $2 per share purchase price. The Put Right with respect to these additional shares will expire on July 1, 2012.

Note 12 – Financial Instruments

The fair value of financial instruments is determined by reference to observable market data and other valuation techniques as appropriate.  The Company has established a fair value hierarchy that priorities the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. Fair values determined by Level 1 inputs utilize quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Fair values identified by Level 2 inputs utilize observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the related assets or liabilities. Fair values identified by Level 3 inputs are unobservable data points and are used to measure fair value to the extent that observable inputs are not available. Unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use at pricing the asset or liability.

The carrying amount reported in the consolidated balance sheets for cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximates fair value because of the immediate or short-term maturity of these financial instruments. The only category of financial instruments where the difference between fair value and recorded book value could be notable is long-term debt. The fair value of long-term debt is determined using Level 2 inputs.  At March 31, 2012 and September 30, 2011, the carrying value of long-term debt approximates fair value because the underlying instruments are primarily at current market rates.

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]

Earnings Per Share [Text Block]

Note 6 – Earnings (Loss) Per Common Share

Basic earnings (loss) per common share is computed by dividing the net income applicable or loss attributable to common shares after preferred dividends paid, if applicable, by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period. Diluted earnings per common share adjusts basic earnings per share for the effects of common stock options, common stock warrants, convertible preferred stock and other potential dilutive common shares outstanding during the periods.

For purposes of computing diluted earnings per share, 535,619 common share equivalents related to stock options were assumed to be outstanding for the three and six months ended March 31, 2011. For the three and six months ended March 31, 2012, 20,485 shares of potential common stock related to stock options were excluded from the calculation of dilutive shares since we experienced a loss from continuing operations and the inclusion of potential shares would be anti-dilutive. In addition, as of March 31, 2012 and 2011, common stock options for 1,059,583 and 69,802 shares, respectively, with exercise prices above current quarterly average market price per share have been excluded from the calculation of earnings per share since their effect is anti-dilutive.

The computation of the weighted shares outstanding for the three months ended March 31 is as follows:

	Three Months Ended
	March 31,
	2012		2011

In addition, based on the exercise of the Put Right in February 2012, the Company has reflected its obligation to pay the aggregate purchase price of $1,857,546 assuming it will satisfy such obligation with the payment of a promissory note. Specifically, regarding such obligation, the Company has reflected $1,395,916 as long-term debt and the balance as the current of such long-term debt obligation.

Note 7 - Stock Based Compensation

The fair value of the stock options granted is estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The weighted average assumptions for grants during the six months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 used in the Black-Scholes option pricing model were as follows:

	Six Months Ended			Six Months Ended
	March 31, 2012			March 31, 2011
Expected term in years		5 years			3 years
Risk-free interest rate		2.64	%		3.95	%
Expected volatility		93.62	%		85.21	%
Expected dividend yield		0.00	%		0.00	%

The expected volatility was determined with reference to the historical volatility of the Company's stock. The Company uses historical data to estimate option exercise and employee termination within the valuation model. The expected term of options granted represents the period of time that the options granted are expected to be outstanding. The risk-free interest rate for periods within the contractual life of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury rate in effect at the time of grant. The dividend yield is expected to be 0.00% because historically the Company has not paid dividends on common stock.

During the three months ended March 31, 2012, 43,960 stock options were granted at the exercise price of $3.03 per share. These options were granted as Directors’ Compensation for the twelve months ending January 31, 2013 and were fully exercisable when granted, and expire five years from the grant date. The stock-based compensation expense of $58,876 will be recognized over the requisite service period. During the three months ended March 31, 2012, 138,373 options were exercised at an exercise price of $1.58 per share in a cashless exercise, resulting in 41,205 common shares issued. During the three months ended March 31, 2012, 20,000 stock options were cancelled with an exercise price of $1.66.

During the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, 500 and 0 shares of restricted stock vested with the value of $2,430 and $0, respectively. During the six months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, 38,000 and 2,500 shares of restricted stock vested with the value of $152,505 and $9,375, respectively.

Stock Compensation Expense for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 is as follows:

	Three Months Ended		Three Months Ended
Stock Compensation Expense	March 31, 2012		March 31, 2011

Note 8 – Segment, Customer and Geographical Reporting

Segment Financial Information

Dynasil’s business breaks down into two segments: products and technology (“Products and Technology”) and contract research (“Contract Research”). Within these segments, there is a segregation of reportable units based upon the organizational structure used to evaluate performance and make decisions on resource allocation, as well as availability and materiality of separate financial results consistent with that structure. The Products and Technology segment manufactures optical materials, components, coatings and specialized instruments used in various applications in the medical, industrial, and homeland security/defense sectors. The Company’s most recent new business venture, Dynasil Biomedical Corp. (“Dynasil Biomedical”) is reported within this segment. It has been determined that this new business venture will primarily pursue product commercialization of technologies and technology licensing opportunities, though there can be no assurances that any of these opportunities will become successfully commercialized. Dynasil’s Contract Research segment is one of the largest small business participants in U.S. government-funded research.

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]

Income Tax Disclosure [Text Block]

Note 10 - Income Taxes

Dynasil Corporation of America and its wholly-owned subsidiaries file a consolidated federal income tax return.

The Company uses the asset and liability approach to account for income taxes. Under this approach, deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes and net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. The amount of deferred taxes on these temporary differences is determined using the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realized or the liability is settled, as applicable, based on tax rates, and tax laws, in the respective tax jurisdiction then in effect. Valuation allowances are provided if it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The provision for income taxes includes taxes currently payable, if any, plus the net change during the year in deferred tax assets and liabilities recorded by the Company.

The Company applies the authoritative provisions related to accounting for uncertainty in income taxes. As required by these provisions, the Company recognizes the financial statement benefit of a tax position only after determining that the relevant tax authority would more likely than not sustain the position following an audit. For tax positions meeting the more-likely-than-not threshold, the amount recognized in the financial statements is the largest benefit that has a greater than 50 percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the relevant tax authority. The Company has applied these provisions to all tax positions for which the statute of limitations remained open. There was no impact on the Company’s unaudited consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows as of March 31, 2012 and 2011. As of March 31, 2012 and 2011, the Company had no unrecognized tax benefits. The Company’s practice is to recognize interest and/or penalties related to income tax matters in interest and income tax expense. The Company currently has no federal or state tax examinations in progress.

The Company has Research and Experimentation tax credits available at both the state and local levels designed to encourage and reward companies for efforts in the areas of research and experimentation. As of March 31, 2012, the Company has federal and state tax credit carryovers totaling approximately $1,300,000, expiring through 2031. The Company’s income tax provision includes a tax benefit of an estimated $40,000 and $153,000 for Research and Experimentation credits attributable to the three and six months ended March 31, 2012, respectively.

The Company has approximately $490,000 in net operating loss carryforwards to offset certain future state income taxes expiring through 2026.

The Company files its tax returns as prescribed by the tax laws of the jurisdictions in which it operates. The Company’s tax filings for federal and state jurisdictions for the tax years from 2009 to 2011 are still subject to examination.

Subsequent Events [Text Block]

Note 14 – Subsequent Events

On April 12, 2012, Dynasil Corporation of America (the “Company”) entered into Amendment No. 2 to Loan and Security Agreement (“Amendment No. 2”) with Sovereign Bank, N.A. (the “Lender”) which amends the Loan and Security Agreement, dated July 7, 2010, as amended by Amendment No. 1 to Loan and Security Agreement, dated April 1, 2011 (the “Original Loan Agreement”).

Amendment No. 2 extends the Scheduled Termination Date for the Revolving Line of Credit from July 7, 2012 to July 7, 2013 or such other later date as may be agreed to in writing by Lender, and makes certain adjustments to the required financial covenants, as described below.

Amendment No. 2 adjusts the consolidated maximum leverage ratio required by the Original Loan Agreement to equal to or less than (i) 3.00 to 1.00 for any period ended on or before December 31, 2011 or on or after December 31, 2012, (ii) 3.75 to 1.00 for the rolling four quarter period ended on March 31, 2012, (iii) 3.25 to 1.00 for the rolling four quarter period ending on June 30, 2012, and (iv) 3.25 to 1.00 for the rolling four quarter period ending on September 30, 2012. The required fixed charge coverage ratio for each of those periods had previously been equal to or less than 3.0 to 1.0.

Additionally, Amendment No. 2 adjusts the consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio required by the Original Loan Agreement to not less than (i) 1.20 to 1.00 for any period ended on or before December 31, 2011 or on or after December 31, 2012, (ii) 0.90 to 1.00 for the rolling four quarter period ended on March 31, 2012, (iii) 1.05 to 1.00 for the rolling four quarter period ending on June 30, 2012, and (iv) 1.10 to 1.00 for the rolling four quarter period ending on September 30, 2012. The consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio for each of those periods had previously been not less than 1.20 to 1.00.

Amendment No. 2 also adjusts the limit on Unfunded Capital Expenditures (as defined in the Original Loan Agreement) by the Company to $3,250,000.00 in the aggregate (tested as of the last day of each fiscal quarter ended after September 30, 2011 on a year-to-date basis). During each Fiscal Year of the Company ending after September 30, 2012, the Company shall not incur Unfunded Capital Expenditures in excess of $2,000,000.00 in the aggregate (tested as of the last day of each fiscal quarter ended after September 30, 2012 on a year-to-date basis). The limit on Unfunded Capital Expenditures had previously been $1,700,000 (tested as of the last day of each fiscal quarter ended after September 30, 2011 on a year-to-date basis).

The foregoing summary of the terms and conditions of Amendment No. 2 does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of Amendment No. 2 to Loan and Security Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 10-Q.

All debt under the Sovereign Bank Loan and Security Agreement has been recorded as a current liability as the Company believes that it will not satisfy its financial covenants under the Sovereign Bank Loan Agreement as of June 30, 2012.

The Company has evaluated subsequent events through the date that the financial statements were released.
