Item 1. Business
Overview
Glowpoint, Inc. (“Glowpoint” or “we” or “us” or the “Company”) is a leading provider of cloud managed video services and the only “pure play” service provider in the video space. We are dedicated to exclusively providing hosted or managed services to the enterprise users of video conferencing and telepresence, and not making, selling or reselling hardware or software solutions for video. Our services, delivered via our cloud-based OpenVideo™ platform (as discussed in further detail below), are securely accessible via any network (private or public) and are technology-agnostic. The Company pursues its recurring revenue business model by delivering services to more than 500 different enterprises in over 35 countries supporting thousands of video endpoints, immersive telepresence rooms, and infrastructure for business-quality, real-time, two-way visual communications. Glowpoint’s managed services solve the challenges associated with achieving consistent high-quality video experiences and controlling the total cost of ownership related to technology and support, while increasing the return on investment (ROI) of its end users’ video equipment by providing seamless access to video equipment outside of their immediate enterprise network.
Glowpoint provides wholesale programs and private-labeled resale options for hardware manufacturers, network operators and systems integrators seeking to offer video services as a value-added addition to their collaboration and communications offerings. The Company maintains multiple strategic partnerships that are core to its global go to market strategy.
Glowpoint’s solutions are hardware-agnostic (e.g., the video equipment may be manufactured by Cisco, Polycom, Logitech, Sony or others) and network-neutral (i.e., connectivity may be via native Internet or network provided by AT&T, Verizon, TATA Communications, British Telecom or others), supporting all recognized video standards across any IP network.
With its carrier-grade, multi-tenant OpenVideo™ platform built in-house, Glowpoint provides a range of remote monitoring and management services that increase the utilization of the video deployment by ensuring all systems are on, all the time, and calls start on time with the highest possible quality.
Glowpoint’s core value proposition for customers includes the enablement of integration of their video deployment into the unified communications environment, allowing wide adoption and usage of video communications, increasing ROI and lowering the total cost of ownership. With its multi-tenant infrastructure in the cloud, Glowpoint provides an alternative to capital-intensive, premise-based infrastructure, which customers traditionally have had to purchase for the video environment to function, as well as the tools and services to enable wide adoption of video communications throughout their business. Glowpoint is a leader in managed video and global video exchange services that provide businesses and service providers a way to link together their “islands of video” across third party private networks and enable organizations to drive adoption.
The Company has been recognized in the industry for focusing on providing an innovative customer experience through our use of IP-based video functionality and innovation. Industry awards and recognition over the last few years include: Excellence in Globalization Award (Frost and Sullivan); Top Ten Managed Service Provider (MSP mentor); Best US Managed Conferencing Services Provider (Telepresence and Videoconferencing Insight Newsletter); PACE Award for contributions to the advancement of video communications (Telespan); and Growth Company of the Year, Finalist (New Jersey Technology Council). We are also widely followed and discussed in market research by the leading industry and research analyst firms, including Gartner, Forrester, Frost and Sullivan, and Wainhouse Research.
As the video conferencing, telepresence, and unified communications industries continue to mature, Glowpoint believes it has established itself as the “go-to” provider for organizations and other service providers to support their video communication needs.
Glowpoint, a Delaware corporation, was formed in May 2000. The Company operates in one segment and therefore segment information is not presented.
Glowpoint Services and Features
Today’s telepresence and video conferencing environments have become a key part of a complete unified business communications strategy. For organizations that are already using video, and for those exploring its benefits for the first time, OpenVideo™ is a unique platform that can help them achieve a successful video collaboration program.
Traditionally, video has presented challenges by presenting a complex maze of systems and networks that must be navigated through and closely managed - and although most of the business-quality video systems today are “standards-based,” there are inherent interoperability problems between different vendors’ video equipment, resulting in communication islands. Glowpoint’s suite of cloud managed video services can be accessed and utilized by customers regardless of the technology and network they are using. Customers who purchase a Cisco, Polycom, LifeSize or any other HD video solution, for example, may all take advantage of the Glowpoint OpenVideo™ cloud regardless of their choice of network. Glowpoint’s core services are offered as part of OpenVideo™ to generate monthly recurring revenue for the Company.
OpenVideo™ is a cloud platform that offers telepresence, video and unified communications and collaboration users a way to meet and communicate across the varying hardware/software platforms and carrier networks in a secure and seamless fashion. OpenVideo™ combines years of best practices, experience and technology development into video collaboration platform that provides instant connectivity, self-serve and managed help desk resources, and the ease of use that makes video collaboration seamless and effortless. Beyond the technology and applications, OpenVideo™ is built around security protocols to ensure that enterprises and organizations of any size can communicate to any other desired video users in a secure, high-quality and reliable fashion.
Glowpoint’s services are categorized as follows:
Monitoring & Management Services and Collaboration Services (“Managed Services Combined”)
We provide end-to-end cloud managed services for telepresence, conference room, desktop, mobile solutions, and video infrastructure. We have a team of video experts utilizing the latest in remote management technologies, with Video Network Operations Centers (VNOCs) and Points-of-Presence (PoPs) all over the world.
We offer a complete portfolio of remote monitoring & management services that can help make video more widely available, improve up-time, drive higher usage, off-load IT teams, or all of the above. Our service packages can be customized to suit the needs of the business, whether for a large enterprise, small or medium sized business.
All of Glowpoint’s unique features and services have been designed so that the entire suite can be private labeled by other service providers or companies who want to integrate video communications into their existing products quickly and cost effectively. Glowpoint will provide all of the video infrastructure and support, including customer portals and billing applications, as a private label service for a third party. This means that our services are branded with the other company’s name, logo and other information, our live operators answer calls using the other company’s name, and the other company’s end user customers view the service as provided by that other company even though it is actually “powered by Glowpoint.” Glowpoint has been involved in a number of private label opportunities, branding various services for multiple strategic global partners. Many strategic global companies in the unified communications industry have recognized Glowpoint’s value to their own sales and marketing efforts.
Glowpoint’s collaboration services, hosted via the OpenVideo™ cloud, are designed to connect video users all over the world whether they are on immersive telepresence, conference room, desktop or mobile devices. Customers that are registered to the OpenVideo™ cloud can connect to any other customer in the OpenVideo™ cloud and get access to Glowpoint's full suite of cloud managed video services, including the Virtual Video Room, video bridging, and webcasting services.
Network Services
In order to provide customers with access to the OpenVideo cloud, Glowpoint maintains a dedicated video overlay network. We have partnered with Tier 1 MPLS providers, including Global Crossing, Masergy, XO, Qwest, TATA, PCCW and Verizon Business, to provide a global access footprint with flexible options to consume our suite of OpenVideo services. Our OpenVideo cloud is also connected to the Equnix Ethernet Carrier Exchange to provide native Layer 2 Ethernet services to enterprise customers.
Glowpoint leverages the last mile and network connectivity of carriers and provides an option for business to purchase a full overlay network for their video only needs. The network bandwidth that we provide for these dedicated overlay networks ranges from 1.5Mbps to 1Gbps. As a result of this, our network services business carries variable costs associated with the purchasing and reselling of this connectivity.
With our network services, we provide customers with the flexibility to either source the entire network from a single provider, maintain existing network and extend a logical connection to the OpenVideo cloud or bring bandwidth to OpenVideo datacenters. Although a declining component of our revenue stream, we believe that network services will continue to be an integral part of our revenue mix in the future, driven by new connectivity needs to connect and peer with Glowpoint’s OpenVideo cloud.
Professional and other services
As with technology hosting and management services, we sought new revenue sources using our network and video engineering capabilities. With the growing interest in convergence and the desire by some enterprises to add the transport of video to their enterprise networks, we have provided professional services and believe the market for such services is growing. Additionally, our extensive knowledge of all leading video conferencing equipment makes our video engineers a valuable resource for manufacturers on an outsourced basis. While our primary focus is generating monthly recurring revenue from our subscription services, our professional services have been a valuable lead for video communication opportunities leading to sales of our managed video services.
We have bundled certain components of our managed services to offer video communication solutions for broadcast/media content acquisition and event services. Customers have used our managed video services during events to cost-effectively acquire video content for broadcasters, cable companies and other media enterprises, especially in the sports, news and entertainment industries. While it includes our core managed video services, IP-based broadcasting and event services require more project management and dedicated operational and engineering personnel than our standard subscription services. Rather than using an expensive satellite feed, companies can acquire broadcast-quality standard definition footage at a fraction of the cost from Glowpoint over a dedicated IP connection. Since 2002, we have provided this service to ESPN during the professional football and basketball drafts. ESPN has used our service for interviews from team locations with coaches, players and analysts during their coverage. In 2007, we launched a High Definition (HD) content acquisition solution that we branded TeamCamHD and RemoteCamHD. This offering provides two-way HD video communication for content acquisition from remote locations. Glowpoint now provides a full suite of HD solutions for the broadcast, entertainment and media industry and is considered a high-quality alternative to the traditional means of acquiring content in many applications, including interviews and even full motion video.
Intellectual Property
Glowpoint has invested in research and development, engineering and application development in the process of building our managed service and cloud platforms. Some of this development has led to awarded patents and a number of patent applications, as described below, along with ongoing recognition in the industry as having unique tools and applications to enable their video applications.
Glowpoint’s OpenVideo™ cloud is based on a Service Oriented Architecture (“SOA”) that enables us to create unique unified communication service offerings. SOA is a foundation framework that abstracts the physical layer from the service application to enable the virtualization of resources. Glowpoint’s cloud based video services can be delivered as a software and infrastructure service in a hosted environment or can support a hybrid with a mix of public and private clouds.
Applications and Development
Built on top of our core cloud architecture, Glowpoint has a portfolio of applications that include conference scheduling, customer care, B2B directory and billing. Glowpoint has built its OpenVideo™ cloud to support SIP, H.323 and Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN) protocols using infrastructure from a variety of manufacturers.
Patents and Patents-Pending
The development of our “video as a service” applications and network architecture have resulted in a significant amount of intellectual property – from real-time metering and billing for video calls to intelligent call routing. In addition to our three awarded patents, a number of other applications have been filed with the United States Patent and Trademark Office and are in various stages of the patent process. We have also abandoned certain patent applications, determining that the likelihood of an award and the cost to obtain it versus the value of the potential award did not justify proceeding any further. While there can be no assurance that a patent will be awarded, we believe that our patented and patent-pending proprietary technology provides an important barrier for competitive offerings of similar video communications services.
As mentioned above, we have been awarded three patents:
|
·
|
U.S. Patent No. 7,200,213 was awarded in April 2007 for our live video operator assistance feature. Our “Live Operator” technology provides customers the ability to obtain live, face-to-face assistance and has widespread application, from general video call assistance to “video concierge” services. This patent is an essential component of providing “expert on demand” and telepresence “white glove” (our VNOC) services.
|
|
·
|
U.S. Patent No. 7,664,098 was awarded in February 2010 for our real-time metering and billing for IP-based calls. Our “Call Detail Records” (CDR) patent for IP-based calls provides the ability to meter and bill an end-user on a transactional basis, just as traditional telephone calls are billed. This unique capability is a vital development as more and more telepresence and video conferencing calling traffic is distributed over disparate IP-based networks – rather than ISDN – as B2B calling is becoming much more common for video users.
|
|
·
|
U.S. Patent No. 7,916,717 was awarded in March 2011 for our Systems and Method for Automated Routing of Incoming and Outgoing Video Calls between IP and ISDN networks. This technology ensures the simple and seamless migration from ISDN to IP for the purpose of connecting IP users with ISDN systems around the world. This automated call routing capability has been leveraged to provide a least cost routing and gateway method to customers.
|
The following is a brief description of our pending patents and their role in our managed video service offering:
|
·
|
Video Call Director - When you place a voice telephone call, you expect some resolution of it – a completed call, a busy signal, or a message that you dialed the wrong number. In the IP-video world, we do not believe that this functionality existed before Glowpoint. Customers placing IP video calls would receive cryptic error codes or invalid network error messages. We developed the Video Call Director technology to intelligently redirect calls based on various conditions. The technology is deployed as “Lisa”, our video call assistant. Now, when a subscribed customer places a video call that does not connect, they are greeted with an interactive video message from “Lisa” explaining some reasons and offering them the option of reaching a live video operator for assistance. The ability to intelligently route video calls based on various conditions lends itself to numerous other capabilities and services, including video mailbox, follow-me video numbers, and video call transfers and forwarding.
|
|
·
|
Method and Process for the Glowpoint Video Call Distributor – Our video call distributor technology permits businesses to route real-time, two-way video calls over an IP network using a call management system (e.g., a traditional PBX-based automatic call distribution system) that may serve multiple possible endpoints (for example, a call center environment). This video call distributor integrates the features and services of traditional voice call distribution systems with video calls. It is built on previously patented Glowpoint technology as well as new technology developed specifically for this solution. We believe this patent-pending technology is a critical component of skills-based video call centers, where video calls can be routed to the appropriate person based on predetermined skill sets or criteria. For example, in a video banking application, this patent-pending technology has been used to route video calls to English and Spanish speaking video bankers depending on a selection made at the remote branch location.
|
Sales and Marketing
We market and sell our services to a broad range of businesses in many industries through both direct and indirect sales channels. Our strategic relationships with equipment manufacturers, unified communications providers, global integration service providers, systems integrators, equipment resellers and network operators have expanded our indirect sales channels. The global demand for visual communications has also increased our opportunities for regional partnerships globally, including in the emerging markets of Asia/Pacific, Middle East, and Central/Latin Americas. Many of the complex solutions sought in today’s market, especially telepresence and unified communications solutions, have created new and unique opportunities for the sale of Glowpoint services. We continue to diversify our lead generation and sales efforts by integrating these indirect sales channels with aggressive internal lead generation programs and focused marketing and promotional efforts. Regardless of the sales or distribution channel, our goal is to reduce barriers to buying and increase our return on sales.
In 2011, the Company hired a new Head of Sales and Marketing, a video industry veteran with tenure in Cisco and Tandberg, and has organized to provide North America and International regional coverage for our partners, customers, and strategic relationships.
Purchasers of telepresence rooms and today’s other complex video products demand that the technology is reliable and functions properly in order to maximize their investment. Glowpoint markets and sells its video management services and B2B capabilities directly to enterprise customers and to equipment manufacturers and integrators, who purchase our video management services on a wholesale basis.
We will continue to focus sales and marketing efforts on our strategic relationships and partnerships so that they remain a significant and consistent contributor to our growth going forward.
Customers
We have a customer base of more than 500 customers ranging from Fortune 100 companies, to federal, state and municipal governmental entities, to businesses and service professionals (e.g., accountants and lawyers) and non-profit organizations. Our top market segments at the end of 2011, listed in order of approximate contribution to revenue, were: consulting, 11%; banking and finance, 10%; engineering and construction, 9%; manufacturing, 9%; broadcast/media, 7%; telecommunication providers, 7%; legal and law enforcement, 5%. Two major customers / wholesale partners represented approximately 24.6% of our revenue for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011. A substantial reduction in use of our services or business failure by either of our major customers / wholesale partners could have a material adverse effect on us.
Employees
As of December 31, 2011, we had approximately 100 full-time employees. Of these employees, 10 are involved in engineering and development, 58 in customer support and operations, 18 in sales and marketing, and 14 in corporate functions. None of our employees are represented by a labor union. We believe that our employee relations are good.
Strategy and Competitive Conditions
Industry
The video communications industry continues to transform. When Glowpoint was initially launched, videoconferencing was a niche industry with unproven technology and questionable quality. We set out to capitalize on that by offering a high-quality, IP-based, reliable service. Today, video communications, especially in the form of telepresence, is becoming a more mainstream, mission-critical technology. “Telepresence” (sometimes referred to as “immersive video”) provides an experience that represents what Glowpoint has been delivering since soon after its launch: high quality, easy to use video communications where the technology does not interfere with the purpose of the meeting. The most popular representation of telepresence is a specially designed room configured to support a “true to life” meeting environment. Everything from multiple monitors, special furniture, strategic camera placement and sound panels are deployed to create an immersive experience so that participants feel as though they are all sitting in the same physical room even though they may be continents apart. Entrance into the telepresence market by high-profile vendors with vast marketing budgets like Cisco Systems, and the consolidation of some traditional videoconferencing equipment manufacturers (e.g., Cisco’s acquisition of Tandberg and Logitech’s acquisition of LifeSize Communications and Polycom’s acquisition of HP’s video business) have, we believe, validated our business plan and brought new energy and interest to the video communications industry. The market for video conferencing/telepresence equipment, including infrastructure and endpoints, has been growing at a compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) of over 25% over the past five years, despite (and to some extent as a result of) unfavorable macroeconomic conditions.
Currently, we view the video communications industry segregated into multiple categories, each of which represents a potential partner and/or customer for Glowpoint’s portfolio of services:
|
·
|
Unified Communications Equipment Manufacturers;
|
|
·
|
Network Operators and Service Providers;
|
|
·
|
Managed Service/Conferencing Services Providers;
|
|
·
·
|
Systems Integrators; and
Market Vertical Integrators.
|
Unified Communications Equipment Manufacturers: Manufacturers of videoconferencing and telepresence equipment focus on selling video endpoint, room, and infrastructure equipment. With the introduction of HD and telepresence, the manufacturers are recognizing that, as part of offering these more complex solutions, there is increased demand for services to not only enable adoption, but to expand the use and applications beyond internal use. Additionally, alternatives to purchasing one’s own infrastructure and using a cloud based hosted model are becoming increasingly popular among businesses that are interested in managing total cost of ownership (TCO) and allowing the service providers to deal with interoperability and technology advancements for them. Therefore there is an inherent need to partner with experienced service providers like Glowpoint, who make it seamless for customers to buy and use the manufacturer’s products on their own terms. Glowpoint’s managed services and cloud based OpenVideo™ platform provide purchasers of this equipment these critical options.
Network Operators and Service Providers: Network operators and service providers play a critical role in video communications because of the need to transport video calls over high-quality IP networks. With the emergence of more scalable and sophisticated IP network capabilities for videoconferencing and telepresence, the network operators are now aggressively offering services that include intelligent virtual private networks (VPNs) on which customers may support data, voice and video applications simultaneously. This is often referred to as a "converged network" or "convergence." Recently, more IP-based video communications applications and managed services have emerged as an integral part of converged network offerings. Glowpoint services and hosted cloud infrastructure are accessible across any provider’s network. So, carriers can be a trusted and comprehensive provider for their video communications customers by partnering and peering with Glowpoint, offering the Glowpoint service cloud as part of their network service offerings. This strategy has the added benefit of increasing the demand for network bandwidth, thereby increasing the carrier’s network sale.
Managed Service/Conferencing Services Providers: A number of companies, including some equipment resellers, network providers and audio conferencing service providers, offer videoconferencing services almost exclusively focused on multipoint conferencing (i.e., bringing multiple locations into one video call). Glowpoint offers a full suite of cloud managed video services and is competitive with other providers in this space.
Systems Integrators: Systems integrators in the unified communications space vary from traditional audio visual integrators to market focused solution providers. This community is driven by technology and integration sales and have historically driven most of their business through one-time equipment and integration sales. This industry has expanded and evolved and more global integration players, such as IBM, HP and others, are heavily involved in the video conferencing and telepresence industry now. As a result, traditional audio visual integrators are facing growing margin pressures as well as increased competition related to videoconferencing equipment sales. We believe that the global integrators are a logical fit for partnering with Glowpoint as they seek to enhance their solution portfolios with a cloud service that is in high demand. As for the AV integration community, we believe they may need to transform their business models, possibly to generate recurring revenue to offset margin pressure and heavier competition. To do so, these providers may attempt to either reproduce the features, experience and services provided by Glowpoint or to become a reseller or wholesale partner of Glowpoint’s services themselves. While some videoconferencing equipment resellers have chosen to compete with a subset of Glowpoint’s offerings, mostly on multipoint bridging front, others have chosen to partner with and resell Glowpoint’s services to increase their speed to market and transform their businesses. We maintain that the intellectual property Glowpoint has put in to building its OpenVideo™ platform creates a barrier to entry for potential competitors and encourages a reseller type of partnership with Glowpoint.
Market Vertical Integrators: There are a number of global market vertical leaders delivering integration solutions to specific markets. These markets include medicine, travel and law, among others. Providers such as Stryker communications specialize in telemedicine, while SABRE virtual meetings focuses on the travel industry, and these players are now participating in the video communications marketplace with unique service offerings to their customer base. This presents new and innovative partner opportunities for Glowpoint given our unique offering and branding capabilities.
Market Need
The complexity of video communications is increasing, while usage of video is becoming more critical in the mix of unified communications. Many enterprises have become dependent on video communications for increased productivity while also reducing operating costs, and have made it part of their core business practices. These same enterprises have difficulty (and incur considerable cost) in effectively maintaining and managing their existing video communication deployments because of the shortage of experienced information technology (IT) and network personnel. Many enterprises also recognize that supporting video communications inside their organization distracts their core support organization from other critical business applications and requires a different skill set than normal business IT support. As a result, businesses are increasingly seeking out managed services and hosted, cloud-based infrastructure to support and power their user community and their video technologies. In fact, isolating and extending the video applications from other business applications and existing communications infrastructure has become an increasingly important capability for larger organizations. With the rapid advancements in video technologies, it has become increasingly expensive and difficult for enterprises to maintain the infrastructure required to power these technologies. We believe that many customers cannot fully support quality video communications on their existing infrastructure and network. An “evergreen” video infrastructure in the cloud enables the enterprises to get the best possible video experience from their endpoints, while avoiding overcapacity issues by providing a flexible usage model. It also removes one of the traditional barriers for video adoption in small and medium business (SMB) segment: the cost of premise-based infrastructure per endpoint is prohibitively high for video deployments of less than 10. By moving them from a CapEx to an OpEx model, Glowpoint eases the path for faster video adoption among SMBs.
Glowpoint provides enterprises with the ability to simplify the video experience with a full suite of open video services largely unavailable from anyone else at this time. Glowpoint’s unique features and services, such as seamless and secure business-to-business video calling, a comprehensive video exchange directory of businesses, live on-demand video operator services, on demand virtual video rooms, video mailboxes, seamless video calling to off-net locations anywhere in the world and other video application services, are available to customers by simply “plugging” their video systems into the Glowpoint service cloud.

According to industry analysts, the video communications industry as a whole is anticipated to continue its explosive growth in the coming years. Gartner Research, for example, in its April 2011 report, titled “Market Trends: Videoconferencing, Worldwide, 2011,” predicts the video conferencing products and services market worldwide – which includes equipment, network and managed services – will reach $7 billion by 2015. In that same report, the cloud managed video services business (Glowpoint’s market), comprised of 1) remote monitoring and management, 2) help desk and concierge services, 3) hosted bridging and 4) B2B exchange services is projected to grow with a CAGR of 38% to almost $1 billion by 2015 from approximately $300 million in 2010.
Competition
For the sale of our managed services, we mainly compete against select telecommunications carriers and videoconferencing equipment resellers and integrators. These carrier competitors, which include British Telecom (BT)/BT Conferencing, AT&T, Verizon and Telus, mainly compete on the basis of offering network and a converged solution of data, voice and video. Other competitors have evolved from the audio/visual integration industry or videoconferencing equipment resale industry, including York Telecom, Providea, BCS Global and AVI-SPL (through its acquisition of iFormata, announced in January 2012). Additionally, the market has attracted some VC-backed or other private start-ups that offer hosted bridging solutions, including Blue Jeans Networks and Vidtel. We view the entry of new players into the market as a net positive, validating the industry, while creating awareness around managed services and viral adoption of video communications.
It is important to note that our competition offers a subset of what we offer from a managed services perspective, through our OpenVideo™ cloud. Glowpoint differentiates itself based on its full suite of superior cloud managed video services delivered with a primary focus on video and resulting superior expertise, flexibility, and responsiveness to customer demands. These services are unique based on our intellectual property, user interfaces and capabilities that Glowpoint has built over the years. Glowpoint has partnered with a number of would-be competitors with the intent of selling our managed video services to be delivered over their networks or as a complement to their offerings.

Glowpoint’s business faces numerous risks, including those set forth below or those described elsewhere in this Form 10-K Annual Report or in our other filings with the SEC. The risks described below are not the only risks that we face, nor are they necessarily listed in order of significance. Other risks and uncertainties may also affect our business. Any of these risks may have a material adverse effect on Glowpoint’s business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flow.
Risks Related to Our Business
Our business activities may require additional financing that might not be obtainable on acceptable terms, if at all, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, liquidity and our ability to operate going forward.
Although there can be no assurance, our management believes that based on our current plan there are sufficient capital resources from existing levels of cash and operations, including our revolving loan facility, to finance our operational requirements through at least March 31, 2013. Our capital requirements continue to depend on numerous factors, including the timing of revenues, the expense involved in development of our systems and products, realizing cost reductions on our technology, capital improvements and the cost involved in protecting our proprietary rights. If we are unable to maintain profitability, or if unforeseen events occur that would require additional funding, we may need to raise capital or incur debt to fund our operations. We would expect to seek such capital through sales of additional equity or debt securities and/or loans from financial institutions, but there can be no assurance that funds will be available to us on acceptable terms, if at all, and any sales of such securities may be dilutive to investors. Failure to obtain financing or obtaining financing on unfavorable terms could result in a decrease in our stock price and could have a material adverse effect on future operating prospects, or require us to significantly reduce operations.
We have a history of substantial net losses and we may incur future net losses, which may cause a decrease in our stock price.
While we generated net income for fiscal year 2011, we reported a substantial loss from operations in all prior years since 2000. We cannot assure you that we will achieve revenue growth or profitability or generate positive cash flow on a quarterly or annual basis in the future. If we do not remain profitable in the future, the value of our common stock may be adversely impacted and we could have difficulty obtaining funds to continue our operations.
Our success is highly dependent on the evolution of our overall market and on general economic conditions.
The market for video communication services is evolving rapidly. Although certain industry analysts project significant growth for this market, their projections may not be realized. Our future growth depends on acceptance and adoption of video communications. There can be no assurance that the market for our services will grow, that our services will be adopted, that customers will desire higher quality or that businesses will purchase our suite of managed video services. If we are unable to react quickly to changes in the market, if the market fails to develop or develops more slowly than expected, or if our services do not achieve market acceptance, then we are unlikely to remain profitable. Additionally, current economic conditions may cause a decline in business and consumer spending which could adversely affect our business and financial performance.
We are exposed to the credit and other counterparty risk of our customers in the ordinary course of our business.
Our customers have varying degrees of creditworthiness and we may not always be able to fully anticipate or detect deterioration in their creditworthiness and overall financial condition, which could expose us to an increased risk of nonpayment under our contracts with them. In the event that a material customer or customers default on their payment obligations to us, discontinue buying services from us or use their buying power with us to lower our revenue, this could materially adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
Our future plans could be adversely affected if we are unable to attract or retain key personnel.
We have attracted a highly skilled management team and specialized workforce. Our future success is dependent in part on attracting and retaining qualified management and technical personnel. Our inability to hire qualified personnel on a timely basis, or the departure of key employees, could materially and adversely affect our business development and therefore, our business, prospects, results of operations and financial condition.
We may have difficulty managing our growth.
If we successfully increase our sales substantially, we expect to hire more employees and expand our operations. This growth may place a strain on our management, our operations and our systems. Our ability to manage this growth will depend upon our ability to broaden our management team and our ability to attract, hire and retain skilled employees. Our success will also depend on the ability of our officers and key employees to continue to implement and improve our operational, financial and other systems, to manage multiple customer relationships concurrently, and to hire, train and manage our employees. Our future success is dependent upon growth. If we cannot scale our business appropriately or otherwise adapt to this growth, this could adversely affect our results of operations.
If our actual liability for sales and use taxes and regulatory fees is different from our accrued liability, it could have a material impact on our financial condition.
Sales and use taxes and regulatory fees are supposed to be, or are routinely, collected from customers and remitted to the applicable authorities in certain circumstances. Historically, we were not properly collecting and remitting all such taxes and regulatory fees and, as a result, we have accrued a liability. All of our tax positions are subject to audit. While we believe all of our estimates and assumptions are reasonable and will be sustained upon audit, actual liabilities and credits may differ. If so, it may impact our financial condition negatively if we underestimated our liability.
Our failure to obtain or maintain the right to use certain intellectual property may negatively affect our business.
Our future success and competitive position depends in part upon our ability to obtain and maintain certain proprietary intellectual property to be used in connection with our services. While we are not currently engaged in any intellectual property litigation, we could become subject to lawsuits in which it is alleged that we have infringed the intellectual property rights of others or we could commence lawsuits against others who we believe are infringing upon our rights. Our involvement in intellectual property litigation could result in significant expense to us, adversely affecting the development of sales of the challenged product and diverting the efforts of our technical and management personnel, whether or not such litigation is resolved in our favor.
In the event of an adverse outcome as a defendant in any such litigation, we may, among other things, be required to: pay substantial damages; cease the development, use or sale of services that infringe upon other patented intellectual property; expend significant resources to develop or acquire non-infringing intellectual property; discontinue the use or incorporation of infringing technology; or obtain licenses to the infringing intellectual property. We cannot ensure that we would be successful in such development or acquisition or that such licenses would be available upon reasonable terms. Any such development, acquisition or license could require the expenditure of substantial time and other resources and could have a negative effect on our business and financial results.
An adverse outcome as plaintiff, in addition to the costs involved, may, among other things, result in the loss of the intellectual property (such as a patent) that was the subject of the lawsuit by a determination of invalidity or unenforceability, significantly increase competition as a result of such determination, and require the payment of penalties resulting from counterclaims by the defendant.
We may not be able to protect the rights to our intellectual property.
Failure to protect our existing intellectual property rights may result in the loss of our exclusivity or the right to use our technologies. If we do not adequately ensure our freedom to use certain technology, we may have to pay others for rights to use their intellectual property, pay damages for infringement or misappropriation and/or be enjoined from using such intellectual property. We rely on patent, trade secret, trademark and copyright law to protect our intellectual property. Some of our intellectual property is not covered by any patent or patent application. As we further develop our services and related intellectual property, we expect to seek additional patent protection. Our patent position is subject to complex factual and legal issues that may give rise to uncertainty as to the validity, scope and enforceability of a particular patent. Accordingly, we cannot assure you that: any of the patents owned by us or other patents that other parties license to us in the future will not be invalidated, circumvented, challenged, rendered unenforceable or licensed to others; any of our pending or future patent applications will be issued with the breadth of claim coverage sought by us, if issued at all; or any patents owned by or licensed to us, although valid, will not be dominated by a patent or patents to others having broader claims. Additionally, effective patent, trademark, copyright and trade secret protection may be unavailable, limited or not applied for in certain foreign countries.
We also seek to protect our proprietary intellectual property, including intellectual property that may not be patented or patentable, in part by confidentiality agreements. We cannot ensure that these agreements will not be breached, that we will have adequate remedies for any breach or that such persons will not assert rights to intellectual property arising out of these relationships.
We depend upon our network providers and facilities infrastructure.
Our success depends upon our ability to implement, expand and adapt our network infrastructure and support services to accommodate an increasing amount of video traffic and evolving customer requirements at an acceptable cost. This has required and will continue to require that we enter into agreements with providers of infrastructure capacity, equipment, facilities and support services on an ongoing basis. We cannot ensure that any of these agreements can be obtained on satisfactory terms and conditions. We also anticipate that future expansions and adaptations of our network infrastructure facilities may be necessary in order to respond to growth in the number of customers served.
We depend upon suppliers and have limited sources for some services.
We rely on other companies to supply some components of our network infrastructure and the means to access our network. Some of the products and services that we resell and certain components that we require for our network are available only from limited sources. We could be adversely affected if such sources were to become unavailable to us on commercially reasonable terms. We cannot ensure that, on an ongoing basis, we will be able to obtain third-party services cost-effectively and on the scale and within the timeframes that we require, if at all. Failure to obtain or to continue to make use of such third-party services would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Our network could fail, which could negatively impact our revenues.
To an extent, our success depends upon our ability to deliver reliable, high-speed access to our partners’ data centers and upon the ability and willingness of our telecommunications providers to deliver reliable, high-speed telecommunications service through their networks. Our network and facilities, and other networks and facilities providing services to us, are vulnerable to damage, unauthorized accessor cessation of operations from human error and tampering, breaches of security, fires, earthquakes, severe storms, power losses, telecommunications failures, software defects, intentional acts of vandalism including computer viruses, and similar events. The occurrence of a natural disaster or other unanticipated problems at the network operations center, key sites at which we locate routers, switches and other computer equipment that make up the backbone of our service offering and hosted infrastructure, or at one or more of our partners’ data centers, could substantially and adversely impact our business. We cannot ensure that we will not experience failures or shutdowns relating to individual facilities or even catastrophic failure of the entire network or hosted infrastructure. Any damage to, or failure of, our systems or service providers could result in reductions in, or terminations of, services supplied to our customers, which could have a material adverse effect on our business.
Our network depends upon telecommunications carriers who could limit or deny us access to their network or fail to perform, which would have a material adverse effect on our business.
We rely upon the ability and willingness of certain telecommunications carriers and other corporations to provide us with reliable high-speed telecommunications service through their networks. If these telecommunications carriers and other corporations decide not to continue to provide service to us through their networks on substantially the same terms and conditions (including, without limitation, price, early termination liability, and installation interval), if at all, it would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Additionally, many of our service level objectives are dependent upon satisfactory performance by our telecommunications carriers. If they fail to so perform, it may have a material adverse effect on our business.
We operate in a highly competitive market and many of our competitors have greater financial resources and established relationships with major corporate customers.
The video communications industry is highly competitive. A number of telecommunications carriers and other corporations, including AT&T, Verizon, British Telecom/BT Conferencing, Level 3 Communications, Cisco and Hewlett-Packard, have entered into the video communications market. Many of these organizations have substantially greater financial and other resources than us, furnish some of the same services provided by us, and have established relationships with major corporate customers that have policies of purchasing directly from them. We believe that as the demand for video communications systems continues to increase, additional competitors, many of which may have greater resources than us, will continue to enter the video communications market.
There is limited market awareness of our Glowpoint services.
Our future success will be dependent in significant part on our ability to generate demand for our Glowpoint managed video services. To this end, our direct marketing and indirect sales operations must increase market awareness of our service offering to generate increased revenue. Our products and services require a sophisticated sales effort targeted at the senior management of our prospective customers. All new hires will require training and take time to achieve full productivity. We cannot be certain that our new hires will become as productive as necessary or that we will be able to hire enough qualified individuals or retain existing employees in the future. We cannot be certain that we will be successful in our efforts to market and sell our products and services, and if we are not successful in building market awareness and generating increased sales, future results of operations will be adversely affected.
As we expand our Glowpoint managed services, any system failures or interruptions may cause loss of customers.
Our success depends, in part, on the seamless, uninterrupted operation of our Glowpoint managed service offering. As we continue to expand these services, and as the complexity and volume continue to increase, we will face increasing demands and challenges in managing them. Any prolonged failure of these services or other systems or hardware that cause significant interruptions to our operations could seriously damage our reputation and result in customer attrition and financial loss.
Security breaches and other disruptions could compromise our information and expose us to liability, which would cause our business and reputation to suffer.
In the ordinary course of providing video communications services, we transmit sensitive and proprietary information of our customers. The secure transmission of this information is critical to our operations. Despite our security measures, our information technology and infrastructure may be vulnerable to attacks by hackers or breached due to employee error, malfeasance or other disruptions. Any such breach could compromise our networks and the information being transmitted could be accessed, publicly disclosed or stolen. Any such disclosure or other loss of information could result in legal claims or proceedings, disrupt our operations and damage our reputation, which could adversely affect our business.
We may be unable to adequately respond to rapid changes in technology.
The market for our Glowpoint managed video services is characterized by rapidly changing technology, evolving industry standards and frequent product introductions. The introduction of products and services embodying new technology and the emergence of new industry standards may render our existing managed video services obsolete and unmarketable if we are unable to adapt to change. A significant factor in our ability to grow and to remain competitive is our ability to successfully introduce new products and services that embody new technology, anticipate and incorporate evolving industry standards and achieve levels of functionality and price acceptable to the market. If our managed video services are unable to meet expectations or unable to keep pace with technological changes in the video communication industry, our managed video services could eventually become obsolete. We may be unable to allocate the funds necessary to upgrade our managed video services as improvements in video communication technologies are introduced. In the event that other companies develop more advanced service offerings, our competitive position relative to such companies would be harmed.
We incur significant accounting and other control costs that impact our financial condition.
As a publicly traded corporation, we incur certain costs to comply with regulatory requirements. If regulatory requirements were to become more stringent or if controls thought to be effective later fail, we may be forced to make additional expenditures, the amounts of which could be material. Some of our competitors are privately owned so their accounting and control costs can be a competitive disadvantage for us. Should our sales decline or if we are unsuccessful at increasing prices to cover higher expenditures for internal controls and audits, our costs associated with regulatory compliance will rise as a percentage of sales.
We rely on a limited number of customers for a significant portion of our revenue, and the loss of any one of those customers, or several of our smaller customers, could materially harm our business.
A significant portion of our revenue is generated from a limited number of customers. For the year ended December 31, 2011, one major customer / wholesale partner represented approximately 12.4% of our revenue and another approximately 12.2%. Although the composition of our significant customers will vary from period to period, we expect that most of our revenue will continue, for the foreseeable future, to come from a relatively small number of customers. Consequently, our financial results may fluctuate significantly from period-to-period based on the actions of one or more significant customers. A customer may take actions that affect us for reasons that we cannot anticipate or control, such as reasons related to the customer's financial condition, changes in the customer's business strategy or operations, the introduction of alternative competing products, or as the result of the perceived quality or cost-effectiveness of our products. Our agreements with these customers may be cancelled if we materially breach the agreement or for other reasons outside of our control. In addition, our customers may seek to renegotiate the terms of current agreements or renewals. The loss of or a reduction in sales or anticipated sales to our most significant or several of our smaller customers could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
We experience material disconnections of our services and may not be able to replace the lost revenue by sales to our current customers or by adding significant new customers.
Historically, we have experienced both significant disconnections of services and also reductions in the prices of our services. In order to realize anticipated revenues and cash flows, we endeavor to obtain long-term commitments from new customers, as well as expand our relationships with current customers. This need is made more critical as the company experiences disconnections of services, which may occur if we materially breach the agreement or for other reasons outside of our control. The disconnection of services by our significant customers or by several of our smaller customers could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Our failure to properly manage the distribution of our services could result in a loss of revenues.
We currently sell our services both directly to customers and through channel partners. Successfully managing the interaction of our direct and indirect sales channels to reach various potential customers for our services is a complex process. Each sales channel has distinct risks and costs, and therefore, our failure to implement the most advantageous balance in the sales model for our services could adversely affect our revenue and profitability.
If we fail to maintain an effective system of internal controls, we may not be able to accurately report our financial results or prevent fraud. As a result, current and potential stockholders may not be confident in our financial reporting, which would harm our business and the price of our common stock.
Pursuant to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, we are required to include in our annual report on Form 10-K our assessment of the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting. Although we believe that we currently have adequate internal control procedures in place, we cannot be certain that our internal controls over financial reporting will remain effective. If we cannot adequately maintain the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting, we may be subject to liability and/or sanctions or investigation by regulatory authorities, such as the SEC. Any such action could adversely affect our financial results and the market price of our common stock.
Risks Relating To Our Securities
Our common stock is thinly traded and subject to volatile price fluctuations.
Our common stock is thinly traded, and it is therefore susceptible to wide price swings. Our common stock is traded on the NYSE Amex under the symbol “GLOW.” Thinly traded stocks are more susceptible to significant and sudden price changes and the liquidity of our common stock depends upon the presence in the marketplace of willing buyers and sellers. We cannot ensure that you will be able to find a buyer for your shares. We cannot ensure that an organized public market for our securities will develop or that there will be any private demand for the common stock. We could also fail to satisfy the standards for continued exchange listing, such as standards having to do with a minimum share price, the minimum number of public shareholders or the aggregate market value of publicly held shares. Any holder of our securities should regard them as a long-term investment and should be prepared to bear the economic risk of an investment in our securities for an indefinite period.
Penny stock regulations may impose certain restrictions on the marketability of our securities.
The SEC has adopted regulations which generally define “penny stock” to be any equity security that has a market price (as defined) less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. Our common stock is presently subject to these regulations which impose additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell such securities to persons other than established customers and accredited investors (generally those with assets in excess of $1,000,000 or annual income exceeding $200,000, or $300,000 together with their spouse). For transactions covered by these rules, the broker-dealer must make a special suitability determination for the purchase of such securities and have received the purchaser’s written consent to the transaction prior to the purchase. Additionally, for any transaction involving a “penny stock,” unless exempt, the rules require the delivery, prior to the transaction, of a risk disclosure document mandated by the SEC relating to the “penny stock” market. The broker-dealer must also disclose the commission payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative, current quotations for the securities and, if the broker-dealer is the sole market maker, the broker-dealer must disclose this fact and the broker-dealer’s presumed control over the market. Finally, monthly statements must be sent disclosing recent price information for the “penny stock” held in the account and information on the limited market in “penny stocks.” Consequently, the “penny stock” rules may restrict the ability of broker-dealers to sell our securities and may negatively affect the ability of purchasers of our shares of common stock to sell such securities.
Future operating results may vary from quarter to quarter, and we may fail to meet the expectations of securities analysts and investors at any given time.
We have experienced, and may continue to experience, significant quarterly fluctuations in operating results. Factors that cause fluctuation in our results of operations include our services mix, development timeline and the rate at which customers accept our services offerings. Accordingly, it is possible that in one or more future quarters our operating results will be adversely affected and fall below the expectations of securities analysts and investors. If this happens, the trading price of our common stock may decline.
We may be required to issue more shares of common stock upon adjustment of the conversion price of our outstanding preferred stock, resulting in dilution of our existing stockholders.
The conversion or exercise of any of our outstanding A-2 Preferred Stock will dilute the ownership interests of our stockholders. If we sell common stock or common stock equivalents at a price per share that is below the then-applicable conversion price of our outstanding Series A-2 Preferred Stock then the conversion price of such securities may adjust downward and, as a result, the amount of shares of common stock issuable upon of such securities would increase. In this event, we may be required to issue more shares of common stock than previously anticipated which would result in further dilution of our existing stockholders.
Sales of substantial amounts of common stock in the public market could reduce the market price of our common stock and make it more difficult for us and our stockholders to sell our equity securities in the future.
Resale into the public market of a significant number of shares issued in prior financings could depress the trading price of our common stock and make it more difficult for our stockholders to sell equity securities in the future. In addition, to the extent other restricted shares become freely available for sale, whether through an effective registration statement or under Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or if we issue additional shares that might be or become freely available for sale, our stock price could decrease.
Although the sale of these additional shares to the public might increase the liquidity of our stockholders’ investments, the increase in the number of shares available for public sale could drive the price of our common stock down, thus reducing the value of your investment and perhaps hindering our ability to raise additional funds in the future.
None.
Our headquarters are located at 430 Mountain Avenue, Murray Hill, New Jersey 07974. These premises consist of approximately 22,000 square feet of leased office space. Our lease expires on January 31, 2014. The base rent for the premises is approximately $355,000 per annum. In addition, we are obligated to pay our share of the landlord’s operating expenses. The Murray Hill premises house our corporate functions and our network operations center. In addition to our headquarters, we lease technical facilities (i) in Ventura, California that house our bridging services group, help desk and technical personnel in approximately 4,000 square feet, the base rent of which is approximately $79,000 per annum, and (ii) in Conshohocken, Pennsylvania that house our dedicated support services group in approximately 3,600 square feet, the base rent of which is approximately $90,000 per annum. We believe our current facilities are suitable and adequate for our business needs and growth prospects.

Not Applicable.
Item 5. Market for Registrant’s Common Equity and Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities
On December 15, 2011, Glowpoint’s securities began trading on the NYSE Amex under the symbol “GLOW.”
On January 10, 2011, the Company filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware a Certificate of Amendment to its Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the "Certificate of Amendment"), effecting a reverse stock split of the Company's common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, at a ratio of one-for-four. The reverse stock split was effective on January 14, 2011. The Company's stockholders approved the Certificate of Amendment on June 17, 2010, and the Company's Board of Directors authorized the implementation of the reverse stock split on December 17, 2010.
As a result of the reverse stock split, every four shares of the Company's then issued and outstanding common stock were combined into one share of common stock. Any fractional shares that resulted from the reverse stock split were paid in cash to the stockholder. The reverse stock split reduced the number of the Company's outstanding shares of common stock from 85,414,000 to approximately 21,354,000 on the date of effectiveness of such split.
The share amounts of common and treasury stock, warrants and options shown in the accompanying consolidated financial statements have been adjusted to reflect the reverse stock split, at a ratio of one-for-four. The exercise price for all options and warrants and the conversion price for preferred stock in the accompanying consolidated financial statements have been adjusted to reflect the reverse stock split by multiplying the original exercise or conversion price by four.
The following table sets forth high and low closing sale prices per share for our common stock for each quarter of 2010 and 2011, based upon information obtained from the OTCBB and NYSE Amex. All reported sales prices reflect inter-dealer prices, without retail mark-up, mark-down or commissions and may not necessarily represent actual transactions.

On March 5, 2012, the closing sale price of our common stock was $3.00 per share as reported on the NYSE Amex, and 25,211,250 shares of our common stock were held by approximately 80 holders of record. American Stock Transfer & Trust Company of Brooklyn, New York is the transfer agent and registrar of our common stock.
Dividends
Our board of directors has never declared or paid any cash dividends on our common stock and does not expect to do so for the foreseeable future. We currently intend to retain any earnings to finance the growth and development of our business. Our board of directors will make any future determination of the payment of dividends based upon conditions then existing, including our earnings, financial condition and capital requirements, as well as such economic and other conditions as our board of directors may deem relevant. In addition, the payment of dividends may be limited by financing arrangements which we may enter into in the future.
Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities; Use of Proceeds from Registered Securities
The Company issued 1,250 shares of unregistered common stock to Rank One Consulting, Inc. (“Rank One”) in consideration of services rendered under the Consulting Agreement dated as of October 28, 2011 between the Company and Rank One. The shares of common stock were issued in reliance on the exemption from registration set forth in Section 4(2) of the Securities Act. Other than the foregoing, there have been no sales of securities during the fiscal year that have not been previously reported in a Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q or in a Current Report on Form 8-K.
Purchases of Equity Securities by Glowpoint and Affiliated Purchasers
There were no purchases of any Glowpoint securities by Glowpoint or any affiliated purchaser during the fourth quarter of 2011.

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2011 and 2010 and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 and the related notes attached hereto. All statements contained herein that are not historical facts, including, but not limited to, statements regarding anticipated future capital requirements, our future development plans, our ability to obtain debt, equity or other financing, and our ability to generate cash from operations, are based on current expectations. The discussion of results, causes and trends should not be construed to imply any conclusion that such results or trends will necessarily continue in the future.
Overview
Glowpoint, Inc. (“Glowpoint” or “we” or “us” or the “Company”) is a leading provider of cloud managed video services and the only “pure play” service provider in the video space. We are dedicated to exclusively providing hosted or managed services to the enterprise users of video conferencing and telepresence, and not making, selling or reselling hardware or software solutions for video. Our services, delivered via our cloud-based OpenVideo™ platform, are securely accessible via any network (private or public) and are technology-agnostic. The Company pursues its recurring revenue business model by delivering services to more than 500 different enterprises in over 35 countries supporting thousands of video endpoints, immersive telepresence rooms, and infrastructure for business-quality, real-time, two-way visual communications. Glowpoint’s managed services solve the challenges associated with achieving consistent high-quality video experiences and controlling the total cost of ownership related to technology and support, while increasing the return on investment (ROI) of its end users’ video equipment by providing seamless access to video equipment outside of their immediate enterprise network.
Glowpoint provides wholesale programs and private-labeled resale options for hardware manufacturers, network operators and systems integrators seeking to offer video services as a value-added addition to their collaboration and communications offerings. The Company maintains multiple strategic partnerships that are core to its global go to market strategy.
Glowpoint, a Delaware corporation, was formed in May 2000. The Company operates in one segment and therefore segment information is not presented.
In September 2010, we determined that our Integrated Services Digital Network (“ISDN”) resale services no longer fit into our strategic plan. We entered into an agreement with an independent telecommunications service provider to transfer our customers receiving this service to them, and prospectively we now receive a 15% recurring referral fee for those revenues. The transfer of the customers was completed in the third quarter of 2011 (see Note 8 to our consolidated financial statements attached hereto).
Glowpoint’s services are categorized as follows:
Monitoring & Management Services and Collaboration Services (“Managed Services Combined”). We provide end-to-end cloud managed services for telepresence, conference room, desktop, mobile solutions, and video infrastructure. We have a team of video experts utilizing the latest in remote management technologies, with Video Network Operations Centers (VNOCs) and Points-of-Presence (PoPs) all over the world.
We offer a complete portfolio of remote monitoring & management services that can help make video more widely available, improve up-time, drive higher usage, off-load IT teams, or all of the above. Our service packages can be customized to suit the needs of the business, whether for a large enterprise, small or medium sized business.
All of Glowpoint’s unique features and services have been designed so that the entire suite can be private labeled by other service providers or companies who want to integrate video communications into their existing products quickly and cost effectively. Glowpoint will provide all of the video infrastructure and support, including customer portals and billing applications, as a private label service for a third party. This means that our services are branded with the other company’s name, logo and other information, our live operators answer calls using the other company’s name, and the other company’s end user customers view the service as provided by that other company even though it is actually “powered by Glowpoint.” Glowpoint has been involved in a number of private label opportunities, branding various services for multiple strategic global partners. Many strategic global companies in the unified communications industry have recognized Glowpoint’s value to their own sales and marketing efforts.
Glowpoint’s collaboration services, hosted via the OpenVideo™ cloud, are designed to connect video users all over the world whether they are on immersive telepresence, conference room, desktop or mobile devices. Customers that are registered to the OpenVideo™ cloud can connect to any other customer in the OpenVideo™ cloud and get access to Glowpoint's full suite of cloud managed video services, including the Virtual Video Room, video bridging, and webcasting services.
Network Services. In order to provide customers with access to the OpenVideo cloud, Glowpoint maintains a dedicated video overlay network. We have partnered with Tier 1 MPLS providers, including Global Crossing, Masergy, XO, Qwest, TATA, PCCW and Verizon Business, to provide a global access footprint with flexible options to consume our suite of OpenVideo services. Our OpenVideo cloud is also connected to the Equnix Ethernet Carrier Exchange to provide native Layer 2 Ethernet services to enterprise customers.
Glowpoint leverages the last mile and network connectivity of carriers and provides an option for business to purchase a full overlay network for their video only needs. The network bandwidth that we provide for these dedicated overlay networks ranges from 1.5Mbps to 1Gbps. As a result of this, our network services business carries variable costs associated with the purchasing and reselling of this connectivity.
With our network services, we provide customers with the flexibility to either source the entire network from a single provider, maintain existing network and extend a logical connection to the OpenVideo cloud or bring bandwidth to OpenVideo datacenters. Although a declining component of our revenue stream, we believe that network services will continue to be an integral part of our revenue mix in the future, driven by new connectivity needs to connect and peer with Glowpoint’s OpenVideo cloud.
Professional and other services. As with technology hosting and management services, we sought new revenue sources using our network and video engineering capabilities. With the growing interest in convergence and the desire by some enterprises to add the transport of video to their enterprise networks, we have provided professional services and believe the market for such services is growing. Additionally, our extensive knowledge of all leading video conferencing equipment makes our video engineers a valuable resource for manufacturers on an outsourced basis. While our primary focus is generating monthly recurring revenue from our subscription services, our professional services have been a valuable lead for video communication opportunities leading to sales of our managed video services.
We have bundled certain components of our managed services to offer video communication solutions for broadcast/media content acquisition and event services. Customers have used our managed video services during events to cost-effectively acquire video content for broadcasters, cable companies and other media enterprises, especially in the sports, news and entertainment industries. While it includes our core managed video services, IP-based broadcasting and event services require more project management and dedicated operational and engineering personnel than our standard subscription services. Rather than using an expensive satellite feed, companies can acquire broadcast-quality standard definition footage at a fraction of the cost from Glowpoint over a dedicated IP connection. Since 2002, we have provided this service to ESPN during the professional football and basketball drafts. ESPN has used our service for interviews from team locations with coaches, players and analysts during their coverage. In 2007, we launched a High Definition (HD) content acquisition solution that we branded TeamCamHD and RemoteCamHD. This offering provides two-way HD video communication for content acquisition from remote locations. Glowpoint now provides a full suite of HD solutions for the broadcast, entertainment and media industry and is considered a high-quality alternative to the traditional means of acquiring content in many applications, including interviews and even full motion video.
Critical Accounting Policies
We prepare our consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Our significant accounting policies are described in Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements attached hereto. We believe the following critical accounting policies involve the most significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements.
Revenue Recognition. Revenue billed in advance for monitoring and management services is deferred until the revenue has been earned, which is when the related services have been performed. Other service revenue, including amounts passed through based on surcharges from our telecom carriers, related to the network services and collaboration services are recognized as service is provided. As the non-refundable, upfront installation and activation fees charged to the subscribers do not meet the criteria as a separate unit of accounting, they are deferred and recognized over the 12 to 24 month period estimated life of the customer relationship. Revenue related to professional services is recognized at the time the services are performed, and presented as required by ASC Topic 605 “Revenue Recognition.” Revenues derived from other sources are recognized when services are provided or events occur.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts. We perform ongoing credit evaluations of our customers. We record an allowance for doubtful accounts based on specifically identified amounts that are believed to be uncollectible. We also record additional allowances based on our aged receivables, which are determined based on historical experience and an assessment of the general financial conditions affecting our customer base. If our actual collections experience changes, revisions to our allowance may be required. After all attempts to collect a receivable have failed, the receivable is written off against the allowance. We do not obtain collateral from our customers to secure accounts receivable.
Long-Lived Assets. We evaluate impairment losses on long-lived assets used in operations, primarily fixed assets, when events and circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the assets might not be recoverable as required by ASC topic 360 “Property, Plant and Equipment.” For purposes of evaluating the recoverability of long-lived assets, the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are compared to the carrying amounts of those assets. If and when the carrying values of the assets exceed their fair values, then the related assets will be written down to fair value. No impairment losses were recorded through December 31, 2011 except for the amount discussed under capitalized software costs (see Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements attached hereto).
Capitalized Software Costs. The Company capitalizes certain costs incurred in connection with developing or obtaining internal-use software. All software development costs have been appropriately accounted for as required by ASC Topic 350.40 “Intangible – Goodwill and Other – Internal-Use Software.” Capitalized software costs are included in “Property and Equipment” on our consolidated balance sheets and are amortized over three to four years. Software costs that do not meet capitalization criteria are expensed as incurred.
Results of Operations – Year ended December 31, 2011 versus year ended December 31, 2010
Revenue. Revenue increased $256,000, or 0.9%, in the year ended December 31, 2011 (the “2011 Year”) to $27,806,000 from $27,550,000 in the year ended December 31, 2010 (the “2010 Year”). The following are the changes in the components of our revenue:
|
·
|
Revenue for Managed Services Combined, which represents subscription monitoring and management services generally tied to contracts of 12 months or more and collaboration services usage based bridging services, which enables customers to have video meetings with multiple locations on the screen at one time, increased 22.3% to $12,816,000 in the 2011 year, from $10,480,000 in the 2010 year. Revenue for Managed Services Combined accounted for 46.1% of our total revenue in the 2011 Year compared to 38.0% for the 2010 Year. The increase in revenue for Managed Services Combined was primarily attributable to new customer acquisitions.
|
|
·
|
Revenue for network services, which represents network sales and related services generally tied to contracts of 12 months or more, decreased to $13,387,000 in the 2011 Year from $16,042,000 in the 2010 Year. Revenue for network services accounted for 48.1% of revenue in the 2011 Year compared to 58.2% for the 2010 Year. The decrease in revenue for network services was primarily attributable to customer disconnects.
|
|
·
|
Revenue for professional and other services, which represent non-recurring services (e.g., the professional football draft event or development of custom solutions), increased to $1,603,000 in the 2011 Year from $1,028,000 in the 2010 Year. Revenue for professional and other services accounted for 5.8% of revenue in the 2011 Year compared to 3.8% for the 2010 Year. The increase in revenue for professional and other services was primarily attributable to a greater number of onetime events.

Network and Infrastructure Expenses. Network and infrastructure expenses decreased by 17.6% to $9,388,000 in the 2011 Year from $11,389,000 in the 2010 Year. Network and infrastructure expenses include all external costs, exclusive of depreciation and amortization, related to the Glowpoint network and hosting facilities for our cloud-based infrastructure. This operating expense category also includes the cost for taxes which have been billed to customers. The decrease was primarily attributed to the decline in volume of network services revenues and the achievement of cost efficiencies.
Global Managed Services Expenses. Global managed services expenses decreased 10.6% to $7,350,000 in the 2011 Year from $8,226,000 in the 2010 year. Global managed services expenses include all costs for delivering and servicing our managed services, such as delivering customer service operations, internal costs of maintaining the network and infrastructure, and the development and implementation of operating support systems and associated hardware enhancements. The decrease was primarily attributed to further investments in automation and efficiencies of processes.
Sales and Marketing Expenses. Sales and marketing expenses decreased 15.4% to $3,506,000 in the 2011 Year from $4,142,000 in the 2010 Year, primarily attributed to reduction in certain trade show expenses.
General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses, which include direct corporate expenses related to costs of personnel in the various corporate support categories, including executive, finance, human resources and information technology, increased 6.1% to $5,656,000 in the 2011 Year from $5,330,000 in the 2010 Year. The increase was primarily due to expenses related to severance related charges of $351,000 and the relocation of our new headquarter during the first and second quarters of 2011 offset by a reduction in expenses due to efficiencies.
Depreciation and Amortization Expenses. Depreciation and amortization expenses increased 33.2% to $1,436,000 in the 2011 Year from $1,078,000 in the 2010 Year, due to purchases of property and equipment (as discussed in Note 21 to our consolidated financial statements attached hereto) exceeding the retirements of these assets.
Income from Operations. Income from operations increased by $3,085,000 in the 2011 Year to $470,000 from a $2,615,000 loss in the 2010 Year. The primary drivers of the increase were due to continued efforts to reduce operating expenses afforded from efficiencies in the managed service business.
Interest and Other Expense. Interest and other expense in the 2011 Year was $129,000, which principally reflected $67,000 of interest charges from vendors and $62,000 of the amortization of financing charges related to our revolving loan Facility. Interest and other expense in the 2010 Year was $160,000, which principally reflected $126,000 of interest charges from vendors and $34,000 of the amortization of financing charges related to certain private placement transactions the Company completed during the 2010 Year.
Income Taxes. As a result of our historical losses, we recorded no provision for incomes taxes in the 2011 Year and 2010 Year. Any deferred tax asset that would be related to our losses has been fully reserved under a valuation allowance, reflecting the uncertainties as to realization evidenced by our historical results and restrictions on the usage of the net operating loss carry forwards.
Income from Continuing Operations. Income from continuing operations increased to $341,000 in the 2011 Year from a $2,775,000 loss in the 2010 Year due to reduced operating expenses noted above.
Income from Discontinued Operations. Income from discontinued operations declined by 75.0%, to $28,000 in the 2011 Year from $112,000 in the 2010 Year. This decrease was a result of the transfer of our ISDN resale business completed in the third quarter of 2011.
Net Income. Net Income increased by $3,032,000 to $369,000 in the 2011 Year from a $2,663,000 loss in the 2010 Year. This increase was primarily due to reduced operating expenses noted above.
Loss on Redemption of Preferred Stock. There was no loss on the redemption of our preferred stock in the 2011 Year. For the 2010 Year, our loss on the redemption of preferred stock resulted from certain private placement transactions the Company completed during the 2010 Year and was $934,000. For loss per share calculations this loss, though charged to Additional Paid-in Capital, increased the net loss attributable to common stockholders for the 2010 Year.
Net Loss Attributable to Common Stockholders. Net income attributable to common stockholders was $369,000 or $0.02 per basic and diluted share in the 2011 Year. For the 2010 Year, the net loss attributable to common stockholders was $3,597,000, or $0.19 per basic and diluted share.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
For the 2011 Year, we had net income attributable to common stockholders of $369,000 and a positive cash flow from operations of $752,000. As of December 31, 2011, we had $1,818,000 of cash, positive working capital of $477,000 and an accumulated deficit of $164,699,000. We have historically been able to raise capital in private placements, including $4,000,000 in 2010, as needed to fund operations and provide growth capital. In June 2011, the Company issued shares of common stock, in lieu of cash, as consideration for the purchase of assets pursuant to the terms of a purchase agreement. In June 2010, the Company entered into a revolving loan facility (as discussed in Note 7 to our consolidated financial statements attached hereto) pursuant to which the Company may borrow up to $5,000,000 for working capital purposes and under which we had unused borrowing availability of approximately $2,072,000 as of December 31, 2011. Our revolving loan facility matures in June 2012. In addition, pursuant to the terms of our preferred stock, the Company will not be obligated to pay dividends until January 2013. We also previously reached settlements regarding a majority of the liability for which we had accrued sales and use taxes and regulatory fees. Based primarily on our efforts to manage costs, the private placements completed by the Company during the 2010 Year, our revolving loan facility, the elimination of dividends on our preferred stock until January 2013, along with our cash flow projection, the Company believes that it has, and will have, sufficient cash flow to fund its operations through at least March 31, 2013. There can be no assurances, however, that we will be able to raise additional capital as may be needed or upon acceptable terms, or that current economic conditions will not negatively impact us. If the current economic conditions negatively impact us and we are unable to raise additional capital that may be needed on terms acceptable to us, it could have a material adverse effect on the Company.
Cash Flows
At December 31, 2011, we had positive working capital of $477,000, compared to a working capital deficit of $526,000 at December 31, 2010, an increase of $1,003,000. We had $1,818,000 in cash at December 31, 2011, compared to $2,035,000 at December 31, 2010, a decrease of $217,000.
Net cash provided by operating activities was $752,000 for the 2011 Year. The primary components of the funds were payments of $1,535,000 to reduce accounts payable, accrued expenses and sales taxes and regulatory fees, a $93,000 increase in accounts receivable and other assets and a $109,000 decrease in customer deposits and deferred revenue, partially offset by a $65,000 increase in the assets of the discontinued operations.
Cash used in investing activities in the 2011 Year was $928,000, which includes $940,000 for the purchase of property, equipment and leasehold improvements offset by proceeds for sale of equipment for $12,000. The capital expenditures were focused on improvement to the Glowpoint infrastructure and the leasehold improvements to our new facility in Murray Hill, NJ.
Cash used in financing activities in the 2011 Year was comprised of $41,000 of costs related to our capital leases.
Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA is defined as income or loss before depreciation, amortization, interest expense, interest income, sales taxes and regulatory fee expense or benefit, severance and stock-based compensation. Adjusted EBITDA is not intended to replace operating income (loss), net income (loss), cash flow or other measures of financial performance reported in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Rather, Adjusted EBITDA is an important measure used by management to assess the operating performance of the Company. Adjusted EBITDA as defined here may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies due to differences in accounting policies. A reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net loss is shown below (in thousands):

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by Glowpoint in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified by the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by Glowpoint in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, Glowpoint has evaluated the effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of December 31, 2011, and, based upon this evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that these controls and procedures are effective in providing reasonable assurance of compliance.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, Glowpoint has evaluated changes in internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the year ended December 31, 2011 and have concluded that no change has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, internal control over financial reporting.
Management’s Annual Report On Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Glowpoint’s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining an adequate system of internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f). Our internal control system was designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of consolidated financial statements for external purposes, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Because of inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with policies and procedures may deteriorate.
Glowpoint’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of its internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2011 based on the framework in Internal Control – Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”). The COSO framework summarizes each of the components of a company’s internal control system, including (i) the control environment, (ii) risk assessment, (iii) control activities, (iv) information and communication, and (v) monitoring. Based on this evaluation, management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2011.
This report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm.
None.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
Board of Directors and Stockholders of
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Glowpoint, Inc. and Subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Glowpoint, Inc. and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

GLOWPOINT, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2011 and 2010
Note 1 - The Business
Glowpoint, Inc. (“Glowpoint” or “we” or “us” or the “Company”) is a provider of cloud managed video services and the only “pure play” service provider in the video space. We are dedicated to exclusively providing hosted or managed services to the enterprise users of video conferencing and telepresence, and not making, selling or reselling hardware or software solutions for video. Our services, delivered via our cloud-based OpenVideo™ platform, are securely accessible via any network (private or public) and are technology-agnostic. The Company pursues its recurring revenue business model by delivering services to more than 500 different enterprises in over 35 countries supporting thousands of video endpoints, immersive telepresence rooms, and infrastructure for business-quality, real-time, two-way visual communications.
Glowpoint provides wholesale programs and private-labeled resale options for hardware manufacturers, network operators and systems integrators seeking to offer video services as a value-added addition to their collaboration and communications offerings. The Company maintains multiple strategic partnerships that are core to its global go to market strategy.
Glowpoint, a Delaware corporation, was formed in May 2000. The Company operates in one segment and therefore segment information is not presented.
In September 2010, we determined that our Integrated Services Digital Network (“ISDN”) resale services no longer fit into our strategic plan. We entered into an agreement with an independent telecommunications service provider to transfer our customers receiving this service to them, and prospectively we now receive a 15% recurring referral fee for those revenues. The transfer of the customers was completed in the third quarter of 2011 (see Note 8).
Glowpoint’s services are categorized as follows:
Monitoring & Management Services and Collaboration Services (“Managed Services Combined”). We provide end-to-end cloud managed services for telepresence, conference room, desktop, mobile solutions, and video infrastructure. We have a team of video experts utilizing the latest in remote management technologies, with Video Network Operations Centers (VNOCs) and Points-of-Presence (PoPs) all over the world.
We offer a complete portfolio of remote monitoring & management services that can help make video more widely available, improve up-time, drive higher usage, off-load IT teams, or all of the above. Our service packages can be customized to suit the needs of the business, whether for a large enterprise, small or medium sized business.
All of Glowpoint’s unique features and services have been designed so that the entire suite can be private labeled by other service providers or companies who want to integrate video communications into their existing products quickly and cost effectively. Glowpoint will provide all of the video infrastructure and support, including customer portals and billing applications, as a private label service for a third party. This means that our services are branded with the other company’s name, logo and other information, our live operators answer calls using the other company’s name, and the other company’s end user customers view the service as provided by that other company even though it is actually “powered by Glowpoint.” Glowpoint has been involved in a number of private label opportunities, branding various services for multiple strategic global partners. Many strategic global companies in the unified communications industry have recognized Glowpoint’s value to their own sales and marketing efforts.
Glowpoint’s collaboration services, hosted via the OpenVideo™ cloud, are designed to connect video users all over the world whether they are on immersive telepresence, conference room, desktop or mobile devices. Customers that are registered to the OpenVideo™ cloud can connect to any other customer in the OpenVideo™ cloud and get access to Glowpoint's full suite of cloud managed video services, including the Virtual Video Room, video bridging, and webcasting services.
Network Services. In order to provide customers with access to the OpenVideo cloud, Glowpoint maintains a dedicated video overlay network. With our network services, we provide customers with the flexibility to either source the entire network from a single provider, maintain existing network and extend a logical connection to the OpenVideo cloud or bring bandwidth to OpenVideo datacenters. Although a declining component of our revenue stream, we believe that network services will continue to be an integral part of our revenue mix in the future, driven by new connectivity needs to connect and peer with Glowpoint’s OpenVideo cloud.
Professional and other services. As with technology hosting and management services, we sought new revenue sources using our network and video engineering capabilities. With the growing interest in convergence and the desire by some enterprises to add the transport of video to their enterprise networks, we have provided professional services and believe the market for such services is growing. Additionally, our extensive knowledge of all leading video conferencing equipment makes our video engineers a valuable resource for manufacturers on an outsourced basis. While our primary focus is generating monthly recurring revenue from our subscription services, our professional services have been a valuable lead for video communication opportunities leading to sales of our managed video services.
We have bundled certain components of our managed services to offer video communication solutions for broadcast/media content acquisition and event services. Customers have used our managed video services during events to cost-effectively acquire video content for broadcasters, cable companies and other media enterprises, especially in the sports, news and entertainment industries. While it includes our core managed video services, IP-based broadcasting and event services require more project management and dedicated operational and engineering personnel than our standard subscription services. Rather than using an expensive satellite feed, companies can acquire broadcast-quality standard definition footage at a fraction of the cost from Glowpoint over a dedicated IP connection. Since 2002, we have provided this service to ESPN during the professional football and basketball drafts. ESPN has used our service for interviews from team locations with coaches, players and analysts during their coverage. In 2007, we launched a High Definition (HD) content acquisition solution that we branded TeamCamHD and RemoteCamHD. This offering provides two-way HD video communication for content acquisition from remote locations. Glowpoint now provides a full suite of HD solutions for the broadcast, entertainment and media industry and is considered a high-quality alternative to the traditional means of acquiring content in many applications, including interviews and even full motion video.
Note 2 - Liquidity, Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Liquidity
For the year ended December 31, 2011, we had net income attributable to common stockholders of $369,000 and a positive cash flow from operations of $752,000. At December 31, 2011, we had $1,818,000 of cash, positive working capital of $477,000 and an accumulated deficit of $164,699,000. We have historically been able to raise capital in private placements as needed to fund operations and provide growth capital. In June 2011, the Company issued shares of common stock, in lieu of cash, as consideration for the purchase of assets pursuant to the terms of a purchase agreement. In June 2010, the Company entered into a Revolving Loan Facility (as discussed in Note 7) pursuant to which the Company may borrow up to $5,000,000 for working capital purposes and under which we had unused borrowing availability of approximately $2,072,000 as of December 31, 2011. The Revolving Loan Facility matures in June 2012. In addition to our financing activity, we also amended the terms of our Series A-2 Preferred Stock and created a Series B Preferred Stock, which does not pay dividends until January 2013. We also reached settlements regarding a majority of the liability for which we had accrued sales and use taxes and regulatory fees. Based primarily on our efforts to manage costs, the 2010 Private Placements (as defined in Note 15), our Revolving Loan Facility, the elimination of dividends until January 2013, along with our cash flow projection, the Company believes that it has, and will have, sufficient cash flow to fund its operations through at least March 31, 2013. There can be no assurances, however, that we will be able to raise additional capital as may be needed or upon acceptable terms, or that current economic conditions will not negatively impact us. If the current economic conditions negatively impact us and we are unable to raise additional capital that may be needed on terms acceptable to us, it could have a material adverse effect on the Company.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Glowpoint and our wholly-owned subsidiary, GP Communications, LLC. All material inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use of Estimates
Preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual amounts could differ from the estimates made. We continually evaluate estimates used in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements for reasonableness. Appropriate adjustments, if any, to the estimates used are made prospectively based upon such periodic evaluation. The significant areas of estimation include determining the allowance for doubtful accounts, deferred tax valuation allowance, accrued sales taxes, the estimated life of customer relationships and the estimated lives and recoverability of property and equipment.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
We perform ongoing credit evaluations of our customers. We record an allowance for doubtful accounts based on specifically identified amounts that are believed to be uncollectible. We also record additional allowances based on our aged receivables, which are determined based on historical experience and an assessment of the general financial conditions affecting our customer base. If our actual collections experience changes, revisions to our allowance may be required. After all attempts to collect a receivable have failed, the receivable is written off against the allowance. We do not obtain collateral from our customers to secure accounts receivable.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company considers its cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable to meet the definition of financial instruments. The carrying amount of cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximated their fair value due to the short maturities of these instruments. The carrying value of our Revolving Loan Facility approximates fair value due to its short term maturities and variable interest rates.
The Company measures fair value as required by the ASC topic 820“Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” (“ASC Topic 820”). ASC Topic 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework and gives guidance regarding the methods used for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. ASC Topic 820 clarifies that fair value is an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. As a basis for considering such assumptions, there exists a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:
|
|
•
|
Level 1 - unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access as of the measurement date.
|
|
|
•
|
Level 2 - inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are directly observable for the asset or liability or indirectly observable through corroboration with observable market data.
|
|
|
•
|
Level 3 - unobservable inputs for the asset or liability only used when there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability at the measurement date.
|
This hierarchy requires the Company to use observable market data, when available, and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs when determining fair value. The Company did not have any unobservable inputs as of December 31, 2011 and 2010 or during the years then ended.
Accounting Standards Updates
There have been no recent accounting pronouncements or changes in accounting pronouncements during the year ended December 31, 2011 that effect us.
Revenue Recognition
Revenue billed in advance for monitoring and management services is deferred until the revenue has been earned, which is when the related services have been performed. Other service revenue, including amounts passed through based on surcharges from our telecom carriers, related to the network services and collaboration services are recognized as service is provided. As the non-refundable, upfront installation and activation fees charged to the subscribers do not meet the criteria as a separate unit of accounting, they are deferred and recognized over the 12 to 24 month period estimated life of the customer relationship. Revenue related to professional services is recognized at the time the services are performed, and presented as required by ASC Topic 605 “Revenue Recognition.” Revenues derived from other sources are recognized when services are provided or events occur.
Taxes Billed to Customers and Remitted to Taxing Authorities
We recognize taxes billed to customers in revenues and taxes remitted to taxing authorities in our operating costs, network and infrastructure. For the year ended December 31, 2011, we included taxes of $1,639,000 in revenues and we included taxes of $1,512,000 in network and infrastructure costs. For the year ended December 31, 2010, we included taxes of $1,912,000 in revenues and we included taxes of $1,791,000 in network and infrastructure costs.
Long-Lived Assets
We evaluate impairment losses on long-lived assets used in operations, primarily fixed assets, when events and circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the assets might not be recoverable as required by ASC topic 360 “Property, Plant and Equipment.” For purposes of evaluating the recoverability of long-lived assets, the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are compared to the carrying amounts of those assets. If and when the carrying values of the assets exceed their fair values, then the related assets will be written down to fair value. For the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, no impairment losses were recorded except for the amount discussed below under capitalized software costs.
Capitalized Software Costs
The Company capitalizes certain costs incurred in connection with developing or obtaining internal-use software. All software development costs have been appropriately accounted for as required by ASC Topic 350.40 “Intangible – Goodwill and Other – Internal-Use Software.” Capitalized software costs are included in “Property and Equipment” on our consolidated balance sheets and are amortized over three to four years. Software costs that do not meet capitalization criteria are expensed as incurred. For the year ended December 31, 2011, we capitalized internal use software costs of $800,000 and we amortized $369,000 and of these costs. During 2011, we recorded an impairment loss of $23,000 for certain costs previously capitalized. For the year ended December 31, 2010, we capitalized internal use software costs of $390,000 and we amortized $239,000 of these costs. In 2010, no impairment losses were recorded.
Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject us to significant concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash, and trade accounts receivable. We place our cash primarily in commercial checking accounts. Commercial bank balances may from time to time exceed federal insurance limits.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost and are depreciated over the estimated useful lives of the related assets, which range from three to five years. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of either the asset's useful life or the related lease term. Depreciation is computed on the straight-line method for financial reporting purposes. Property and equipment include fixed assets subject to capital leases which are depreciated over the life of the respective asset.
Income Taxes
We use the asset and liability method to determine our income tax expense or benefit. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are computed based on temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates that are expected to be in effect when the differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Any resulting net deferred tax assets are evaluated for recoverability and, accordingly, a valuation allowance is provided when it is more likely than not that all or some portion of the deferred tax asset will not be realized.
Earnings or Loss per Share
Earnings or loss per share is calculated by dividing net earnings (loss) attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings or loss per share reflects the potential dilution from the conversion or exercise into common stock of securities such as stock options and warrants.
Stock-based Compensation
Stock based awards have been appropriately accounted for as required by ASC topic 718 “Compensation – Stock Compensation” (“ASC topic 718”). Under ASC topic 718 share based awards are valued at fair value on the date of grant, and that fair value is recognized over the requisite service period. The Company values its stock based awards using the Black-Scholes option valuation model.
Treasury Stock
In March 2010, the Company cancelled 391,000 shares of common stock that had been previously acquired by the Company and such cancellation has been recorded in the consolidated statement of stockholders’ equity at $1,383,000.

Note 5 - Accrued Sales Taxes and Regulatory Fees
Included in accrued sales taxes and regulatory fees are (i) certain estimated sales and use taxes, regulatory fees and (ii) sales taxes and regulatory fees collected from customers that are to be remitted to taxing authorities. We have been proactively contacting various taxing authorities and voluntarily disclosing potential tax liabilities, and have continually revised what sales taxes and regulatory fees are applicable to our business. The settlement terms from this voluntarily disclosure program, all of which are subject to audit, have resulted in paying significantly less than the total amounts accrued due to, among other things, offsets allowed, the avoidance of penalties, and contracting for limited look-back periods.

Note 7 – Revolving Loan Facility
On June 16, 2010, the Company entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (as amended, the “Revolving Loan Facility”) with Silicon Valley Bank (“SVB”) pursuant to which the Company may borrow up to $5,000,000 for working capital purposes. The Revolving Loan Facility matures on June 15, 2012. The amounts that can be borrowed at any given time are equal to the lesser of $5,000,000 or 80% of the eligible accounts receivable, as defined. As of December 31, 2011, we had unused borrowing availability of $2,072,000. Outstanding principal amounts under the Revolving Loan Facility bear interest at a floating rate per annum equal to Prime Rate as announced by SVB plus two percent (2%), payable monthly in arrears, subject to a minimum interest rate of 6%. The Company is also obligated to pay minimum monthly interest of $3,750 regardless of the amount borrowed. The SVB Prime Rate was 4% as of December 31, 2011. The Revolving Loan Facility is secured by a first priority security interest in all the Company’s assets, including, without limitation, its intellectual property. The Revolving Loan Facility contains a number of financial covenants, including without its limitation, covenants relating to minimum unrestricted cash balances and minimum monthly Adjusted EBITDA, as defined, in the Revolving Loan Facility. At December 31, 2011, we were in compliance with the covenants, as defined, set forth in the Revolving Loan Facility and there was $750,000 outstanding under the Revolving Loan Facility.
The Revolving Loan Facility financing costs, net of accumulated amortization, which are included in other assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, were $28,000 as of December 31, 2011. The financing costs for the Revolving Loan Facility are being amortized over the 12- to 24-month period through the maturity date of the Revolving Loan Facility. During the year ended December 31, 2011, the amortization of financing costs was $62,000 and was included as “Amortization of Deferred Financing Costs” in the consolidated statement of operations in Interest and Other Expense.
Note 8 – Discontinued Operations
Our ISDN resale services no longer fit into our overall strategic plan. In September 2010, we entered into an agreement with an independent telecommunications service provider to transfer these services and the related customers, and going forward the Company will receive a 15% monthly recurring referral fee for those revenues for as long as the customers maintain service. Such amounts totaled approximately $12,000 and $0 for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The only remaining assets of the ISDN resale services are the receivables for services provided prior to the transfer, and the Company will retain and collect these accounts. The transfer of the customers was completed in the third quarter of 2011, and the Company will have no continuing involvement with the ISDN product line.
The Company accordingly classified these ISDN related revenues and expenses as discontinued operations in accordance with ASC 205.20 “Discontinued Operations.” The accompanying consolidated financial statements reflect the operating results and balance sheet items of the discontinued operations separately from continuing operations. Prior year financial statements have been restated in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles to present the operations of the ISDN resale services as a discontinued operation.
Revenues from the ISDN resale services, reported as discontinued operations, for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 were $81,000 and $620,000, respectively. Net income from the ISDN resale services, reported as discontinued operations, for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 were $28,000 and $112,000, respectively. The assets and liabilities from the ISDN resale services, reported as net current (liabilities)/assets of discontinued operations, as of December 31, 2011 and 2010 were ($50,000) and $15,000, respectively. No income tax provision was required to be recognized by the Company against income from the ISDN resale services over the related periods.
Note 9 – Earnings or Loss Per Share
For the year ended December 31, 2011, diluted earnings per share includes 93,000 shares of common stock associated with outstanding options and warrants, 235,000 shares issuable upon conversion of our convertible preferred stock calculated using the treasury stock method, and 836,000 shares of unvested restricted stock.
Diluted loss per share for the year ended December 31, 2010 is the same as basic loss per share due to the net loss in each of the respective periods and the following potential shares of common stock that could have been issuable have been excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per share because the effects, as a result of our net loss, would be anti-dilutive (in thousands):

Note 11 – Preferred Stock
In August 2011, certain holders of the Company’s Series A-2 Preferred Stock elected to convert 965 shares of Series A-2 Preferred Stock into 2,413,000 shares of common stock of the Company (the “A-2 Conversion”) at the original conversion price. Each of the Series A-2 Preferred Stock shares was exchanged for 2,500 shares of common stock, pursuant to the terms of the Series A-2 Preferred Stock Certificate of Designation.
In connection with the A-2 Conversion, the Company entered into a Series B Preferred Consent and Exchange Agreement dated August 3, 2011 with the holder of the Series B Preferred Stock, which provided for the issuance of 100 shares of a new Series B-1 Preferred Stock in exchange for cancelling all of the issued and outstanding Series B Preferred Stock. As a result of the exchange, there are currently 100 shares of Series B-1 Preferred Stock outstanding and no shares of Series B Preferred Stock outstanding.
The Company and the holders of the Series B-1 Preferred Stock entered into a Stockholders Agreement dated August 3, 2011 (the "Stockholders Agreement"), which provides for a mandatory redemption of the Series B-1 Preferred Stock upon the completion of a "public offering" (as such term is defined in the Stockholders Agreement) that satisfies certain conditions. As the circumstances under which the Series B-1 Preferred Stock becomes redeemable are solely within the control and decision of the Company, these shares have been accounted for as permanent equity.
Each share of Series B-1 Preferred Stock has a stated value of $100,000 per share (the “Series B-1 Stated Value”), and a liquidation preference equal to the Series B-1 Stated Value plus all accrued and unpaid dividends (the “Series B-1 Liquidation Preference”). The Series B-1 Preferred Stock is not convertible into common stock. The Series B-1 Preferred Stock is senior to all other classes of equity and, commencing on January 1, 2013, is entitled to cumulative dividends from January 1, 2013, at a rate of 4% per annum, payable quarterly, based on the Series B-1 Stated Value. Commencing January 1, 2014, the cumulative dividend rate increases to 6% per annum, payable quarterly, based on the Series B-1 Stated Value. The Company may, at its option at any time, redeem all or a portion of the outstanding shares of Series B-1 Preferred Stock by paying the Series B-1 Liquidation Preference.
Each share of Series A-2 Preferred Stock has a stated value of $7,500 per share (the “A-2 Stated Value”), a liquidation preference equal to the Series A-2 Stated Value, and is convertible at the holder’s election into common stock at a conversion price per share of $3.00. Therefore, each share of Series A-2 Preferred Stock is convertible into 2,500 shares of common stock. The Series A-2 Preferred Stock is subordinate to the Series B-1 Preferred Stock but senior to all other classes of equity, has weighted average anti-dilution protection and, commencing on January 1, 2013, is entitled to cumulative dividends at a rate of 5% per annum, payable quarterly, based on the Series A-2 Stated Value. Once dividend payments commence, all dividends are payable at the option of the holder in cash or through the issuance of a number of additional shares of Series A-2 Preferred Stock with an aggregate liquidation preference equal to the dividend amount payable on the applicable dividend payment date.
Our Certificate of Incorporation authorizes the issuance of up to 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock. As of December 31, 2011, there are: 100 shares of Series B-1 Preferred Stock authorized, issued and outstanding; 7,500 shares of Series A-2 Preferred Stock authorized and 94 shares issued and outstanding; and 4,000 shares of Series D Preferred Stock authorized and no shares issued or outstanding.
In accordance with ASC Topic 815, we evaluated whether our convertible preferred stock contains provisions that protect holders from declines in our stock price or otherwise could result in modification of the exercise price and/or shares to be issued under the respective preferred stock agreements based on a variable that is not an input to the fairvalue of a “fixed-for-fixed” option and require a derivative liability. The Company determined no derivative liability is required under ASC Topic 815 with respect to our convertible preferred stock. A contingent beneficial conversion amount is required to be calculated and recognized when and if the adjusted conversion price of the convertible preferred stock, currently $3.00, is adjusted to reflect a down round stock issuance that reduces the conversion price below the $1.16 fair value of the common stock on the issuance date of the convertible preferred stock.

All of our outstanding warrants as of December 31, 2011 are exercisable with an exercise price of $1.60 and have an expiration date of November 25, 2013.
Note 14 – Stock Options
In our stock option plans, the exercise price of the awards are established by the administrator of the plan and, in the case of incentive stock options (“ISOs”) issued to employees who are less than 10% stockholders, the per share exercise price must be equal to at least 100% of the fair market value of a share of the common stock on the date of grant or not less than 110% of the fair market value of the shares in the case of an employee who is a 10% stockholder. The administrator of the plan determines the terms and provisions of each award granted, including the vesting schedule, repurchase provisions, rights of first refusal, forfeiture provisions, form of payment, payment contingencies and satisfaction of any performance criteria.
The weighted average fair value of each option granted is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option valuation model with the following weighted average assumptions during the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010:

The Company calculates expected volatility for a stock-based grant based on historic daily stock price observations of its common stock during the period immediately preceding the grant that is equal in length to the expected term of the grant. The expected term of the options and forfeiture rates are estimated based on the Company’s exercise and employment termination experience. The risk free interest rate is based on U.S. Treasury yields for securities in effect at the time of grants with terms approximating the expected life of the grants. The assumptions used in the Black-Scholes option valuation model are highly subjective and can materially affect the resulting valuations.

Sale of Series B Preferred Stock
In the 2010 Private Placements, the Company received $4,000,000 of gross proceeds for the issuance of 40 shares of its newly-created Series B Preferred Stock (the “2010 Series B Preferred Stock Sales”). The Series B Preferred Stock was recorded in the balance sheet at $4,000,000, which is the gross cash received in the sale and is also its liquidation value.
Exchange of Series A-2 Preferred Stock for Series B Preferred Stock
In the 2010 Private Placements, 60 shares of Series B Preferred Stock with a liquidation preference of $6,000,000 were issued in exchange for 1,600 shares of Series A-2 Preferred Stock with a liquidation preference of $12,000,000 (the “2010 Series B Preferred Stock Exchanges”).
We accounted for the 2010 Series B Preferred Stock Exchanges as a redemption that requires that the excess of the fair value of the Series B Preferred Stock (the “Series B Fair Value”) over the carrying amount of the Series A-2 Preferred Stock (the “Series A-2 Carrying Amount”) be added to net loss to arrive at net loss attributable to common stockholders. The Series A-2 Carrying Amount of $5,066,000 is based on the recorded book value. The Series B Fair Value of $6,000,000 is based on applying the $100,000 sale price of each share of Series B Preferred Stock sold in the 2010 Private Placements to each share of Series B Preferred Stock issued in the 2010 Series B Preferred Stock Exchanges. As required by ASC topic 260 “Earnings Per Share,” the $934,000 excess of Series B Fair Value over the Series A-2 Carrying Amount is recognized in our consolidated statements of operations as a “Loss on Redemption of Preferred Stock” and added to our net loss to arrive at the net loss attributable to common stockholders.
Conversion of Series A-2 Preferred Stock for Common Stock
In the 2010 Private Placements, 1,850 shares of Series A-2 Preferred Stock were converted into 4,624,000 shares of common stock (the “2010 Common Stock Conversions”). Each of the Series A-2 Preferred Stock shares was converted into 2,500 shares of common stock, which is consistent with the Series A-2 Preferred Stock Certificate of Designation.
We accounted for the 2010 Common Stock Conversions by taking the Series A-2 carrying amount of $5,855,000 and allocating $2,000 to the par value of common stock and the balance of $5,853,000 to Additional Paid in Capital.
Financial Advisor and Legal Fees
In connection with the 2010 Private Placements, we paid legal fees of $27,000 and paid financial advisory fees of $280,000. We issued financial advisory warrants to purchase 295,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $2.53 per share and exercisable for a period of five years (the “2010 Financial Advisor Warrants”). We accounted for the issuance of the 2010 Financial Advisor Warrants at fair value. The $443,000 estimated fair value of the 2010 Financial Advisor Warrants, determined using the Black-Scholes option valuation model using the assumptions shown in Note 14, was charged to Additional Paid in Capital “Costs related to 2010 Private Placements” and credited to Additional Paid in Capital “Warrants issued in connection with 2010 Private Placements.”
Note 16 - Income Taxes
We had no tax provision for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010. Our effective tax rate differs from the statutory federal tax rate for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 as shown in the following table (in thousands):

The ending balances of the deferred tax asset have been fully reserved, reflecting the uncertainties as to realizability evidenced by the Company’s historical results.
We and our subsidiary file federal and state tax returns on a consolidated basis. During 2011, we determined that an “ownership change” had occurred in 2008 (as defined under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended) which places an annual limitation on the utilization of the net operating loss (“NOL”) carryforwards accumulated before the ownership change. As a result of this annual limitation and the limited carryforward life of the accumulated NOLs, we determined that the ownership change resulted in the permanent loss of approximately $33 million of tax benefit associated with the NOL carryforwards. At December 31, 2011 we had accumulated NOL carryforwards of $39,927,000 available to offset future federal taxable income which expire in various amounts from 2017 through 2030. At December 31, 2011, we had accumulated NOL carryforwards of $57,878,000 available to offset future state taxable income which expire in various amounts from 2017 through 2030. If it is determined that there is a subsequent ownership change in the future, the utilization of the Company’s NOL carryforwards may be further limited. This would result in a reduction in equal amounts to the deferred tax assets and the related valuation reserves.
There were no significant matters determined to be unrecognized tax benefits taken or expected to be taken in a tax return, in accordance with 740 “Income Taxes” (“ASC 740”), which clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in the financial statement, that have been recorded on the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010.
Additionally, ASC 740 provides guidance on the recognition of interest and penalties related to income taxes. There were no interest or penalties related to income taxes that have been accrued or recognized as of and for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010.
The federal and state tax returns for the years ending December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008 are currently open and the tax return for the year ended December 31, 2011 will be filed by September 2012.
Note 17 - 401(k) Plan
We have adopted a retirement plan under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code. The 401(k) plan covers substantially all employees who meet minimum age and service requirements. The plan is currently non-contributory on our part. Employer contributions to the 401(k) plan for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 were $0 and $38,000, respectively.
Note 18 – Related Party Transactions
The Company provides cloud-managed video services (the “Video Services”) to a company in which one of our directors is an officer. Management believes that such transactions contain terms that would have been obtained from unaffiliated third parties.
Related party Video Services revenue for the year ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 were $296,000 and $317,000, respectively. The accounts receivable for this company was $42,000 as of December 31, 2011.
One of our directors currently provides general corporate strategy and management consulting services to the Company under a Consulting Agreement entered into as of September 1, 2010 (the “Consulting Agreement”). The Company pays this individual director $12,500 per month, plus any pre-authorized expenses incurred in providing services, under the Consulting Agreement. The term of the engagement is month-to-month.
Also, the Company receives financial advisory services from a firm where one of the principals is a shareholder of Glowpoint. Management believes that such transactions contain terms that would have been obtained from unaffiliated third parties.
Related party financial advisory fees for the year ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 were $144,000 and $210,000, respectively. As of December 31, 2011, there was no accounts payable for this firm.
Note 19 – Major Customers
Major customers are those customers / wholesale partners that account for more than 10% of revenues. For the year ended December 31, 2011, 24.6% of revenues were derived from two major customers and the accounts receivable from these major customers represented 21.5% of total accounts receivable as of December 31, 2011. For the year ended December 31, 2010, 19.5% of revenues were derived from one major customer and the accounts receivable from this major customer represented 22.3% of total accounts receivable as of December 31, 2010. The loss of these customers would have a material adverse affect on the Company’s operations.
Note 20 - Commitments and Contingencies
Operating Leases
We lease several facilities under operating leases expiring through 2014. Certain leases require us to pay increases in real estate taxes, operating costs and repairs over certain base year amounts. Lease payments for the year ended December 31, 2011 were $500,000. Lease payments for the year ended December 31, 2010 were $412,000.
Future minimum rental commitments under all non-cancelable operating leases are as follows (in thousands):

Capital Lease Obligation
The Company entered into two non-cancelable lease agreements for $512,000 and $40,000 with interest rates of 6% and 0%, respectively. These leases are accounted for as capital leases. Depreciation expense on the equipment under the capital leases as of December 31, 2011 and 2010 was $51,000 and $0, respectively.

Commercial Commitments
We have entered into a number of agreements with telecommunications companies to purchase communications services. Some of the agreements require a minimum amount of services to be purchased over the life of the agreement, or during a specified period of time.
Glowpoint believes that it will meet its commercial commitments. In certain instances where Glowpoint did not meet the minimum commitments, no penalties for minimum commitments have been assessed and the Company has entered into new agreements. It has been our experience that the prices and terms of successor agreements are similar to those offered by other carriers.
Glowpoint does not believe that any loss contingency related to a potential shortfall should be recorded in the consolidated financial statements because it is not probable, from the information available and from prior experience, that Glowpoint has incurred a liability.
Letter of Credit
In November 2010, the Company entered into an irrevocable standby letter of credit (the “LOC”) for $115,000 to secure our security deposit for the sublease of our corporate headquarters. The LOC was obtained from Silicon Valley Bank (“SVB”) and will be renewed yearly until January 2014, the expiration date of our sublease.
Note 21 – Asset Purchase Agreement
On June 30, 2011, the Company issued 769,000 shares of common stock as consideration for the purchase of assets pursuant to the terms of a purchase agreement. The assets acquired are equipment used primarily in the delivery and management of hosted video bridging and help desk and concierge services and are classified as property and equipment on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet. The total number of shares was based on consideration equal to $1,581,000 using the common stock’s 30-day trailing volume-weighted average price for the period ended June 28, 2011 (the “VWAP”). This transaction did not meet the requirements of a business combination and therefore was accounted for as an asset purchase with the fair value of the assets purchased equal to the consideration given. The equipment will be depreciated on a straight line basis over five years.
Pursuant to the agreement, if at any time between the first anniversary of the closing date and the date that is 18 months following the closing date (the “repurchase period”) the closing price of the Company’s common stock shall fall below the VWAP, then the seller has the right to demand that the Company repurchase from it, in a single transaction, not more than 50% of the shares delivered to such seller at closing at a price equal to the VWAP. This will result in a derivative liability and will be accounted for with changes in fair value during the repurchase period recorded in earnings. As of December 31, 2011, there was no derivative liability.
Note 22 – Management Changes and Other Severance
In July 2010, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of the Company effected a termination without cause of David W. Robinson, its Co-Chief Executive Officer, General Counsel and Executive Vice President of Business Development.
Effective July 29, 2010, Mr. Robinson voluntarily resigned as a member of the Board. Mr. Robinson did not resign because of any disagreement with the Company, nor was he removed for cause from the Board. Pursuant to the terms of the Employment Agreement between Glowpoint and Mr. Robinson dated May 1, 2006 (as amended, the “Employment Agreement”) and the Separation Agreement between the Company and Mr. Robinson effective as of August 6, 2010, Mr. Robinson is entitled to receive cash payments totaling approximately $265,000 and other severance benefits (e.g., grants of new restricted stock, reimbursement of medical insurance premiums and an extension to exercise vested options) valued at approximately $152,000. These costs were included in general and administrative costs in 2010. As of December 31, 2011 and 2010, $0 and $185,000, respectively, of unpaid severance related expenses were included as accrued expenses in the consolidated balance sheets for Mr. Robinson.
On November 30, 2010, John McGovern was appointed as the Company’s Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer replacing Mr. Heinen, the Company’s previous Chief Financial Officer. Pursuant to the terms of the Separation Agreement between the Company and Mr. Heinen effective as of December 27, 2010, Mr. Heinen is entitled to receive cash payments totaling approximately $216,000 and other severance benefits (e.g., accelerated vesting of restricted stock and options and reimbursement of medical insurance premiums) valued at approximately $49,000. These costs were included in general and administrative costs. As of December 31, 2011 and 2010, $0 and $265,000, respectively, of unpaid severance related expenses were included as accrued expenses in the consolidated balance sheets for Mr. Heinen.
In 2011 and 2010, the Company effected terminations of certain employees which entitled them to receive cash payments and other severance benefits (e.g., reimbursement of medical insurance premiums). As of December 31, 2011 and 2010, $110,000 and $20,000, respectively, of unpaid severance related expenses were included as accrued expenses in the consolidated balance sheets for these employees.
