(Unaudited)

1. CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The condensed balance sheet as of June 30, 2012 has been derived from audited financial statements.  The unaudited condensed financial statements presented herein are based on interim amounts.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for all periods presented have been made.  The operating results for the six months ended December 31, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year.

4. PRODUCT SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT EXPENDITURES

The Company follows the guidance of ASC 985-20 “Costs of Software to be Sold, Leased, or Marketed” when capitalizing software development costs associated with software embedded in or to be incorporated into its products.  The cost of purchased software technology is capitalized and stated at the lower of unamortized cost or expected net realizable value.  Software is subject to rapid technological obsolescence and future revenue estimates supporting the capitalized software cost can be negatively affected based upon competitive products, services and pricing.  Such adverse developments could reduce the estimated net realizable value of our product software development costs and could result in impairment or a shorter estimated life.  Such events would require us to take a charge in the period in which the event occurs or to increase the amortization expense in future periods and would have a negative effect on our results of operations. At a minimum, we review for impairment on a quarterly basis.  The Company launched a new product offering utilizing this software in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2012 and began amortizing the related capitalized software costs. Amortization is being recorded over a three year period or a fixed amount per unit sold, whichever is greater. Amortization expense for the three and six months ended December 31, 2012 was $397,926 and $762,466, respectively. Accumulated amortization as of December 31, 2012 totaled $905,333.

5.             INCOME TAXES

The Company files income tax returns in the United States (Federal), Wisconsin (State) and various other state jurisdictions.  Tax years open to examination by tax authorities under the statute of limitations include fiscal years 2007 through 2012 for Federal and fiscal years 2008 through 2012 for most state jurisdictions.

The company’s unrecognized tax benefits, excluding interest and penalties, were $1,146,051 as of December 31, 2012 and as of June 30, 2012. All of the company’s unrecognized tax benefits as of December 31, 2012, if recognized, would impact the effective tax rate. The Company recognizes interest related to unrecognized tax benefits in interest expense. During the next twelve months, it is reasonably possible that the unrecognized tax benefits and income tax expense could be reduced by up to $500,000 due to expected closure of certain tax positions.

6. CREDIT FACILITY

On May 12, 2010, the Company entered into a secured credit facility with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (“Lender”).  The Credit Agreement dated May 12, 2010 between the Company and the Lender (“Credit Agreement”) provides for an $8,000,000 revolving secured credit facility with interest rates either ranging from 0.0% to 0.75% over the Lender’s most recently publicly announced prime rate or 2.0% to 3.0% over the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR"), depending on the Company’s leverage ratio.  The Company pays a fee of 0.3% to 0.45% for unused amounts committed in the credit facility.  On May 21, 2012, the Credit Agreement was amended to extend the expiration to July 31, 2014. In addition to the revolving loans, the Credit Agreement also provides that the Company may, from time to time, request the Lender to issue letters of credit for the benefit of the Company up to a sublimit of $2,000,000 and subject to certain other limitations.  The loans may be used only for general corporate purposes of the Company.

The Credit Agreement contains certain affirmative, negative and financial covenants customary for financings of this type.  The negative covenants include restrictions on other indebtedness, liens, fundamental changes, certain investments, asset sales, sale and leaseback transactions and transactions with affiliates, among other restrictions.  The financial covenants include a minimum current ratio, minimum tangible net worth and maximum leverage ratio requirements.  The Company and the Lender also entered into a Pledge and Security Agreement dated May 12, 2010 under which the Company granted the Lender a security interest in substantially all of the Company’s assets in connection with the Company’s obligations under the Credit Agreement.  As of December 31, 2012 and June 30, 2012, the outstanding balance on this credit facility was $1,200,000 and $0, respectively.  The applicable interest rate on the outstanding balance at December 31, 2012 was 3.25%.

7

7.    INTEREST EXPENSE

The Company incurs interest expense primarily related to its secured credit facility (see Note 6) and to its liabilities for its tax positions related to the unauthorized transactions. As the tax returns have been settled and statutes have closed, the interest expense on certain items has been reversed. Interest expense detail was as follows for the three and six months ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively:

	Three Months Ended						Six Months Ended
	December 31						December 31
	2012			2011			2012			2011
Interest expense on secured credit facility	$	(15,266	)	$	(24,012	)	$	(32,635	)	$	(49,527	)
Interest expense for tax positions related to unauthorized transactions	(11,940		)	—			(23,880		)	(32,074		)
Interest reversals for tax positions related to unauthorized transactions	—			—			—			18,906
Other interest expense	—			—			—			(1,843		)
Interest expense	$	(27,206	)	$	(24,012	)	$	(56,515	)	$	(64,538	)

8.             INCOME PER COMMON AND COMMON STOCK EQUIVALENT SHARE

Basic income per share is computed based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding.  The weighted-average number of common shares outstanding was 7,382,706 for the quarters ended December 31, 2012 and 2011.  When dilutive, stock options are included in income per share as share equivalents using the treasury stock method.  For the periods ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, there were no common stock equivalents related to stock option grants that were included in the computation of the weighted-average number of shares outstanding for diluted income per share.  Shares under option of 1,944,308 and 1,614,308 were excluded from the diluted weighted-average common shares outstanding for the periods ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively, as they would be anti-dilutive.

9.    DIVIDENDS DECLARED

On October 25, 2012, the Company declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.06 per share for the stockholders of record on December 14, 2012, which was paid on December 28, 2012. 

10. STOCK OPTIONS

The Company recognizes stock-based compensation expense for options granted under both the 1990 Flexible Incentive Plan and the 2012 Omnibus Incentive Plan, which was approved by the stockholders at the annual meeting held on October 3, 2012. The stock-based compensation relates to stock options granted to employees, non-employee directors and non-employee consultants. In the six months ended December 31, 2012, options to purchase 430,000 shares were granted under the 2012 Omnibus Incentive Plan at a weighted average exercise price of $5.14. In the six months ended December 31, 2011, options to purchase 440,000 shares were granted under the 1990 Flexible Incentive Plan at a weighted average exercise price of $6.30. Stock-based compensation expense during the three and six months ended December 31, 2012 was $145,439 and $293,941, respectively. Stock-based compensation expense during the three and six months ended December 31, 2011 was $137,257 and $261,928, respectively.

8

11.             STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENTS

The Company has an agreement with its Chairman, John C. Koss, in the event of his death, at the request of the executor of his estate, to repurchase his Company common stock from his estate.  The Company does not have the right to require the estate to sell stock to the Company.  As such, this arrangement is accounted for as a written put option with the fair value of the put option recorded as a derivative liability.

The fair value of the written put option at December 31, 2012 and June 30, 2012 was $141,829 and $135,333, respectively.  The repurchase price is 95% of the fair market value of the common stock on the date that notice to repurchase is provided to the Company.  The total number of shares to be repurchased will be sufficient to provide proceeds which are the lesser of $2,500,000 or the amount of estate taxes and administrative expenses incurred by the Chairman’s estate.  The Company may elect to pay the purchase price in cash or may elect to pay cash equal to 25% of the total amount due and to execute a promissory note for the balance, payable over four years, at the prime rate of interest.  The Company maintains a $1,150,000 life insurance policy to fund a substantial portion of this obligation.

Hopkins in Superior Court of Maricopa County, Arizona, case no.

• On June 24, 2010, the Company filed an action against its former independent auditor, Grant Thornton, LLP, and Ms. Sachdeva, in Circuit Court of Cook County, Illinois, alleging various claims of accounting malpractice, negligent misrepresentation, and fraud relating to the unauthorized transactions.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Overview

The Company markets a complete line of high-fidelity stereo headphones, speaker-phones, computer headsets, telecommunications headsets, active noise canceling stereo headphones, wireless stereo headphones and compact disc recordings of American Symphony Orchestras on the Koss Classics label. The Company operates as one business segment.

In 2009, the Company learned of significant unauthorized transactions, details of which have been disclosed in depth in the Company's previous periodic reports filed with the SEC. References to unauthorized transactions below should be read in conjunction with those reports.

Results of Operations Summary

• Net sales decreased 13.5% in the quarter to $8,642,031 with slow sales to European based distributors and a decline in sales to a U.S. based electronics retailer.

• Gross profit as a percent of sales declined 6.1% to 31.9% for the quarter ended December 31, 2012 due to amortization of software development costs and write off of tooling for parts that will not be used in future product releases. These impacts were partially offset by improvements in margin resulting from a reduction in product purchase costs, when compared to last year, and favorable product pricing to customers.

• Selling, general and administrative spending was higher primarily due to costs of patent and trademark defense as well as charges related to deferred compensation agreements. These were partially offset by decreased insurance premiums and lower profit based compensation expense.

• Resolution of the lawsuits in which the Company was the defendant as well as completion of the SEC investigation caused a significant decline in legal expenses related to the unauthorized transactions.

• Unauthorized transaction related recoveries increased due to receipts from sale of forfeited items.

2012 Results Compared with 2011

(comments refer to both the three and six month periods unless otherwise stated)

Net sales decreased for both the three and six month periods ended December 31, 2012. The Company saw some weakness in sales to certain European distributors in the first quarter and saw further weakness in the second quarter. In the second quarter of last year, there was a Black Friday promotion of approximately $407,000 at a U.S. based retailer that was not repeated in the second quarter of this year. In addition, certain export orders for approximately $240,000 were disrupted and not shipped at the

11

end of December 2012 due to the threatened dockworker strike on the Eastern Seaboard. These negative impacts were partially offset by sales to customers added late in the year ended June 30, 2012.

Gross profit as a percent of sales was lower than last year. The decline in gross profit margin was primarily the result of amortization of software development product costs, which started late in the year ended June 30, 2012 when the Striva product was launched. There was approximately $398,000 of software amortization in the second quarter and $762,000 of software amortization in the first six months of fiscal 2013. In addition, there was a sale at low margin to close out a product during the quarter ended September 30, 2012. During the quarter ended December 31, 2012, there was a charge of approximately $124,000 to write off tooling that is not expected to be used in the launch of future Striva products. The gross profit as a percent of sales was lower than normal in the quarters ended September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2011 due to cost increases from manufacturers in China. During the year ended June 30, 2012, the Company was able to mitigate some of the cost increases by transferring production to alternate suppliers and through improvements in product pricing in certain markets.

Selling, general and administrative expenses were higher than the same period last year. The majority of this increase was driven by costs of patent and trademark defense. In addition, the Company lowered the discount rate used to calculate deferred compensation liability which resulted in an increase in expense. These increased costs were partially offset by a reduction in insurance premiums and lower profit-based compensation expense.

Unauthorized transaction related costs declined because the Company incurred lower costs for legal fees related to defending certain actions. The derivative lawsuit, SEC investigation, and class action lawsuit have been resolved during the last year, causing a decrease to the legal fees associated with these matters. Unauthorized transaction related recoveries in the current fiscal year were primarily from asset forfeitures and sale of items at auction. The unauthorized transaction related recoveries last year were primarily from insurance proceeds.

The income from operations decreased primarily due to the amortization of software costs, decreased net sales and the increase in selling, general and administrative expenses.

The effective income tax rate varies from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 34% due to state income taxes. It is anticipated that the effective income tax rate will be between 20 - 31% in the year ended June 30, 2013 due to an anticipated decrease of the unrecognized tax benefits.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash Flows

The following table summarizes our cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities for the six months ended December 31, 2012 and 2011:

	2012			2011
Total cash provided by (used in):
Operating activities	$	929,664		$	1,438,994
Investing activities	(657,473		)	(1,431,553		)
Financing activities	(128,887		)	14,075
Net increase in cash and cash equivalents	$	143,304		$	21,516

Operating Activities

During the six months ended December 31, 2012, cash provided by operations decreased primarily due to payments to contract manufacturers causing a $2,199,398 reduction in accounts payable. Inventory increased to $9,817,182 at December 31, 2012 as compared to $9,396,350 as of June 30, 2012. This increase was largely due to purchases of inventory to support the Striva products. Prepaid assets increased to $1,203,219 at December 31, 2012 from $387,066 as of June 30, 2012 due to prepayment of insurance premiums, advance payment of a product placement program at a U.S. retailer, and advance payments to a vendor.

12

Investing Activities

Cash used in investing activities was lower for the six months ended December 31, 2012 as the Company had lower expenditures for equipment, life insurance payments and capitalized software development expenditures. The capitalized software development expenditures decreased as a result of expensing on-going costs for the Striva products since the product was launched during the year ended June 30, 2012. In the year ended June 30, 2013, the Company has budgeted $1,200,000 for tooling and leasehold improvements.  The Company expects to generate sufficient funds through operations to fund these expenditures.

Financing Activities

The Company had a net use of cash by financing activities in the three months ended December 31, 2012 due to paying the dividend in December 2012 instead of January 2013. The Company borrowed from its bank line of credit $1,200,000 and $900,000 in the six months ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The Company intends to continue to pay regular quarterly dividends of $0.06 per share for the foreseeable future.  As of December 31, 2012, the Company had outstanding borrowings of $1,200,000 on its bank line of credit facility.  The borrowings were used primarily to fund payments to vendors for inventory purchases late in fiscal year ended June 30, 2012.

There were no purchases of common stock in 2012 or 2011 under the stock repurchase program.  No stock options were exercised in 2012 or 2011.

Liquidity

In addition to capital expenditures for tooling and continued investment in software and new product development, the Company has interest payments on its line of credit facility borrowings, and planned normal quarterly dividend payments. The Company believes that cash generated from operations, together with borrowings available under its credit facility, provide it with adequate liquidity to meet operating requirements, debt service requirements, planned capital expenditures, and dividend payments.  The long-term outlook for the business remains positive, however, the Company continually reevaluates new product offerings, inventory levels and capital expenditures to ensure that it is effectively allocating resources in line with current market conditions.

Credit Facility

On May 12, 2010, the Company entered into a secured credit facility with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (“Lender”).  The Credit Agreement dated May 12, 2010 between the Company and the Lender (“Credit Agreement”) provides for an $8,000,000 revolving secured credit facility and for letters of credit for the benefit of the Company of up to a sublimit of $2,000,000.  On May 21, 2012, the Credit Agreement was amended to extend the expiration to July 31, 2014.  The Company and the Lender also entered into a Pledge and Security Agreement dated May 12, 2010 under which the Company granted the Lender a security interest in substantially all of the Company’s assets in connection with the Company’s obligations under the Credit Agreement.  The balance on this facility was $1,200,000 and $0 as of December 31, 2012 and June 30, 2012, respectively.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company has no off-balance sheet arrangements other than the lease for the facility in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, which it leases from its Chairman.  On May 15, 2012, the lease was renewed for a period of five years, ending June 30, 2018, and is being accounted for as an operating lease.  The lease extension maintained the rent at a fixed rate of $380,000 per year.  The Company is responsible for all property maintenance, insurance, taxes and other normal expenses related to ownership.  The facility is in good repair and, in the opinion of management, is suitable and adequate for the Company’s business purposes.
