INTRICON CORPORATION

Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements (Unaudited)

1.	General
	In the opinion of management, the accompanying consolidated condensed financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly IntriCon Corporation’s (“IntriCon” or the “Company”) consolidated financial position as of September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, and the consolidated results of its operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008. Results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicators of the results of the operations expected for the full year or any other interim period.
	Certain prior balances have been reclassified to be consistent with the September 30, 2009 presentation including: $650,000 of cash previously included in checks written in excess of cash on the balance sheet as of September 30, 2008. The reclassification did not impact previously reported net income or shareholders’ equity.
	The Company has evaluated subsequent events occurring through November 16, 2009, the date on which this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q was issued.
2.	New Accounting Pronouncements
	In September 2009, the FASB issued ASU No. 2009-12, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820): Investments in Certain Entities That Calculate Net Asset Value per Share (or Its Equivalent),” which amends ASC 820-10, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures—Overall.” ASU No. 2009-12 permits a reporting entity to measure the fair value of certain alternative investments that do not have a readily determinable fair value on the basis of the investments’ net asset value per share or its equivalent. This ASU also requires expanded disclosures. This guidance will become effective for us October 1, 2009 and will not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
	In August 2009, the FASB issued ASU No. 2009-05, “Measuring Liabilities at Fair Value.” ASU 2009-05 amends ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements,” by providing additional guidance on determining the fair value of liabilities when a quoted price in an active market for an identical liability is not available. This ASU will become effective for us on October 1, 2009 and is not expected to have a significant impact on the measurement of our liabilities as of that date.
3.	Acquisition
	On August 13, 2009, the Company acquired all of the outstanding stock of Jon Barron, Inc. doing business as Datrix (“Datrix”), a privately held developer, manufacturer, tester and marketer of medical devices and related software products, based in Escondido, California. The acquisition provides the Company entry into the ambulatory electrocardiograph (AECG) and event recording markets.
	The purchase price included a closing cash payment of $1,225,000, issuance of 75,000 shares of restricted Company stock and the issuance of a promissory note in the amount of $1,050,000 bearing annual interest at 6%, subject to closing adjustments. In addition the Company paid off Datrix’s outstanding line of credit with Wells Fargo of $130,000 at closing. The acquisition was financed, in part, with borrowings under the Company’s new credit facility, as further described in Note 9.
	The principal amount of the promissory note is payable in three installments of $350,000 on August 13, 2010, August 13, 2011 and August 13, 2012. The note bears annual interest at 6% and is payable with each principal as set forth above.
	The assets and liabilities of Datrix were recorded as of the acquisition date, at their respective fair values, and consolidated with those of the Company. Likewise, the results of operations of the Datrix operations since August 13, 2009 have been included in the accompanying consolidated condensed statements of operations. The preliminary allocation of the net purchase price of the acquisition resulted in goodwill of approximately $2,239,000. The goodwill represents operating and market synergies that the Company expects to be realized as a result of the acquisition and future opportunities. The purchase price allocation is based on preliminary estimates of fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The Company is in the process of gathering information to finalize its valuation of certain assets, primarily the valuation of acquired intangible assets. The valuation requires the use of significant assumptions and estimates. These estimates are based on assumptions the Company believes to be reasonable. However, actual results may differ from these estimates.

The preliminary purchase price was as follows as of August 13, 2009 (amounts in thousands):

Cash paid to seller at closing	$	1,225
Cash paid to Wells Fargo at closing		130
Stock consideration		270
Seller note at close		1,050
Total purchase price	$	2,675

The following table summarizes the preliminary purchase price allocation for the Datrix acquisition as of September 30, 2009 (amounts in thousands):

Cash	$	13
Other current assets		536
Goodwill – Body-Worn Device Segment		2,239
Current liabilities		(113	)
Total preliminary purchase price allocation	$	2,675

	Included in the Consolidated Condensed Statement of Operations were acquisitions costs of $263,000 and $277,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009, respectively.
	Results from operations of Datrix are not considered material to the financial statements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009. Proforma results are also not considered material for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009.
4.	Product Warranty
	In general, the Company warrants its products to be free from defects in material and workmanship and will fully conform to and perform to specifications for a period of one year. The following table presents changes in the Company’s warranty liability for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009:

	Three Months Ended September 30, 2009			Nine Months Ended September 30, 2009
Beginning balance	$	89,300		$	100,200
Change in warranty estimate		—			—
Warranty expense		8,900			46,900
Closed warranty claims		(28,200	)		(77,100	)
Ending balance	$	70,000		$	70,000

5.	Fair Value Measurements
	Effective January 1, 2008, the Company adopted certain fair value measurements criteria utilizing three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
	•	Level 1 — quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.
	•	Level 2 — observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.
	•	Level 3 — unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data available, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.
	The fair value of the Company’s interest rate swap liability (described in Note 13) was determined based on Level 2 inputs. The Company’s goodwill and other intangible assets (discussed in Note 6) are analyzed annually (or more frequently if necessary) for impairment by reference to fair value based on a discounted cash flow analysis; future benefits over a period of time are estimated and then discounted back to a present value, a Level 2 input.

9

6.	Goodwill
	The Company tests goodwill for impairment in the fourth quarter of each year, unless a triggering event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying value. The balance of goodwill related to the Electronic Products Segment and Body-Worn Device Segment was $685,000 and $9,820,000 at September 30, 2009, respectively. The change in goodwill for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 was $2,239,000 and is entirely related to the Body-Worn Device Segment.
	If circumstances change, the estimates of fair value will also change and could necessitate an impairment charge that reduces the carrying value of goodwill or intangible assets. Management considered whether the loss from continuing operations of both reporting segments during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009 constituted a triggering event to assess impairment of goodwill and/or identifiable intangible assets, however, based on the Company’s sales cycle and growth initiatives and evaluation of the ongoing commitment to its Electronic Products Segment, management believes that it is too early to assess if the unfavorable conditions are short-term in nature that will be recovered in the future. Thus, management believes a triggering event has not occurred. The Company is in the process of evaluating its forward projections, on-going operations and growth initiatives in light of the current economic conditions, which evaluation is scheduled to be completed in the fourth quarter. If any impairment is identified, the related adjustment to goodwill and/or other identifiable intangible assets will be recorded against the operations of the period in which such identification is made and may be material.
7.	Segment and Geographic Information
	Based on the nature of our products and technology, the Company currently operates in two reportable segments: body-worn devices and electronic products. Previously, these were combined in the Company’s “miniature medical and electronics products segment”. The nature of the products and services has been deemed separately identifiable, as the Company has further developed technologies and products included in the body-worn device segment. This includes products and technologies developed both internally and externally with our strategic partners like Advanced Medical Electronics Corp. (“AME”) and Dynamic Hearing Pty Ltd. (“Dynamic Hearing”). Furthermore, as the underlying products and technology has changed, the economic characteristics of each business segment are not similar. Our electronics products segment margin is subject to more variability due to component material pricing and we believe our future revenue growth and margin will be different for each segment as a result of the proprietary technology included in our body-worn device products. Therefore, segment reporting has been retroactively applied to all periods presented.
	Income (loss) from operations is total revenues less cost of sales and operating expenses. Identifiable assets by industry segment include both assets directly identifiable with those operations. General corporate assets consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, and are included in the body-worn device segment. The accounting policies applied to determine segment information are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. The Company evaluates the performance of each segment based on income and loss from operations before income taxes. The costs and charges related to the Datrix transaction were corporate charges not associated with either business segment. The following table summarizes data by industry segment:

Long-lived assets consist of property and equipment as they are difficult to move and relatively illiquid. Excluded from long-lived assets are investments in partnerships, patents, license agreements and goodwill. The Company capitalizes long-lived assets pertaining to the production of specialized parts. These assets are periodically reviewed to assure the net realizable value from the estimated future production based on forecasted sales exceeds the carrying value of the assets.

The geographical distribution of net sales to geographical areas for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008 were as follows:

	Three Months Ended				Nine Months Ended

To finance a portion of the Datrix acquisition and replace the Company’s existing credit facilities with Bank of America, including capital leases, the Company and its domestic subsidiaries entered into a new three year credit facility with The PrivateBank and Trust Company on August 13, 2009. The credit facility provides for:
	§	an $8,000,000 revolving credit facility, with a $200,000 subfacility for letters of credit. Under the revolving credit facility, the availability of funds depends on a borrowing base composed of stated percentages of the Company’s eligible trade receivables and eligible inventory, and eligible equipment less a reserve; and
	§	a $3,500,000 term loan.

12

	Loans under the credit facility are secured by a security interest in substantially all of the assets of the Company and its domestic subsidiaries including a pledge of the stock of its domestic subsidiaries. Loans under the credit facility bear interest at varying rates based on predefined levels of Funded Debt / EBITDA, at the option of the Company, at:
		§	the London InterBank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) plus 3.00% - 4.00%, or
		§	the base rate, which is the higher of (a) the rate publicly announced from time to time by the lender as its “prime rate” and (b) the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.5%, plus 0.25% - 1.25%.
	Weighted average interest on the new domestic asset-based revolving credit facility was 5.19% for the three months ended September 30, 2009. The outstanding balance of the revolving credit facility was $5,000,000 at September 30, 2009. The total remaining availability on the revolving credit facility was approximately $3,000,000 at September 30, 2009.
	The principal balance of the term loan was $3,400,000 at September 30, 2009.
	Upon termination of the Bank of America credit facility, the Company was required to settle the outstanding obligations of $121,000 for the liability related to its interest rate swap agreement with Bank of America and recognize the corresponding charge of $121,000 in interest expense which was previously included in other comprehensive income (loss). In addition the Company expensed the remaining deferred financing costs of $86,000 related to the Bank of America facility, which is included in interest expense.
	The prior credit facility provided for:
		§	a $10,000,000 revolving credit facility, with a $200,000 subfacility for letters of credit. Under the revolving credit facility, the availability of funds depends on a borrowing base composed of stated percentages of our eligible trade receivables and eligible inventory, less a reserve.
		§	a $4,500,000 term loan, which was used to fund the Company’s May, 2007 acquisition of Tibbetts Industries, Inc.
	Loans under the credit facility were secured by a security interest in substantially all of the assets of the borrowers including a pledge of the stock of the subsidiaries. All of the borrowers were jointly and severally liable for all borrowings under the credit facility.
	The principal balance of the Bank of America term loan was $2,756,250 at December 31, 2008. In 2008, we used proceeds of $1,013,000 from the equipment sale-leaseback described below to pay down the term loan.
	The outstanding balance of the Bank of America revolving credit facility was $3,000,000 at December 31, 2008. The total remaining availability on the revolving credit facility was approximately $4,349,000 at December 31, 2008.
	In June 2008, the Company completed a sale-leaseback of machinery and equipment with Bank of America. The transaction generated proceeds of $1,098,000, of which $1,013,000 was used to pay down the domestic term loan. The facility was repaid on August 13, 2009 with proceeds borrowed under the new PrivateBank facility.
10.	Income Taxes
	Income tax for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009 was an expense of $8,000 and a benefit of $14,000, respectively, compared to expenses of $82,000 and $197,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008, respectively. The benefit for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 was primarily due to benefits on foreign operating losses. The expense for 2008 was primarily due to foreign taxes on German and Singapore operations. The Company is in a net operating loss position for U.S. federal income tax purposes and, consequently, minimal federal benefit or expense from the domestic operations was recognized as the deferred tax asset has a full valuation allowance.

The following was the (loss) income before income taxes for each jurisdiction that the Company has operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008:

	Three Months Ended					Nine Months Ended

11.	Stockholders’ Equity and Stock-based Compensation
	The Company has a 1994 stock option plan, a 2001 stock option plan, a non-employee directors’ stock option plan and a 2006 equity incentive plan. New grants may not be made under the 1994, the 2001 and the non-employee directors’ stock option plans; however certain option grants under these plans remain exercisable as of September 30, 2009. The aggregate number of shares of common stock for which awards could be granted under the 2006 Equity Incentive Plan as of the date of adoption was 698,500 shares. Additionally, as outstanding options under the 2001 stock option plan and non-employee directors’ stock option plan expire, the shares of the Company’s common stock subject to the expired options will become available for issuance under the 2006 Equity Incentive Plan.
	Under the various plans, executives, employees and outside directors receive awards of options to purchase common stock. Under the 2006 equity incentive plan, the Company may also grant stock awards, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock units and other equity-based awards, although no such awards, other than awards under the programs discussed in the next two paragraphs, had been granted as of September 30, 2009. Under all awards, the terms are fixed on the grant date. Generally, the exercise price equals the market price of the Company’s stock on the date of the grant. Options under the plans generally vest over three years, and have a maximum term of 10 years.
	Additionally, the board has established the non-employee directors stock fee election program, referred to as the director program, as an award under the 2006 equity incentive plan. The director program gives each non-employee director the right under the 2006 equity incentive plan to elect to have some or all of his quarterly director fees paid in common shares rather than cash. There were 907 and 2,524 shares issued in lieu of cash for director fees under the director program for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009, respectively. There were 383 and 974 shares issued in lieu of cash for director fees under the director program for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008, respectively.
	On July 23, 2008, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors approved the non-employee director and executive officer stock purchase program, referred to as the management purchase program, as an award under the 2006 Equity Incentive Plan. The purpose of the management purchase program is to permit the Company’s non-employee directors and executive officers to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock directly from the Company. Pursuant to the management purchase program, as amended, participants may elect to purchase shares of common stock from the Company not exceeding an aggregate of $100,000 during any fiscal year. Participants may make such election one time during each twenty business day period following the public release of the Company’s earnings announcement, referred to as a window period, and only if such participant is not in possession of material, non-public information concerning the Company, subject to the discretion of the Board to prohibit any transactions in common stock by directors and executive officers during a window period. There were 20,000 shares purchased under the management purchase program during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009. There were no shares purchased under the management purchase program during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008.
	Stock option activity as of and during the nine months ended September 30, 2009 was as follows:

	Number of Shares			Weighted- average Exercise Price		Aggregate Intrinsic Value
Outstanding at December 31, 2008		981,650		$	5.93	$	—
Options forfeited		(7,000	)		11.39
Options granted		83,000			3.28
Options exercised		—			—
Outstanding at September 30, 2009		1,057,650		$	5.69	$	—
Exercisable at September 30, 2009		689,183		$	4.53	$	—
Available for future grant at December 31, 2008		261,894
Available for future grant at September 30, 2009		183,370

15

	The number of shares available for future grant at September 30, 2009 does not include a total of up to 397,700 shares subject to options outstanding under the 2001 stock option plan and non-employee directors’ stock option plan as of September 30, 2009, which will become available for grant under the 2006 Equity Incentive Plan in the event of the expiration of such options.
	The fair value of each stock option granted is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The Black-Scholes option-pricing model was developed for use in estimating the fair value of traded options that have no vesting restrictions and are fully transferable. In addition, option-pricing models require the input of subjective assumptions, including the expected stock price volatility. Because the Company’s options have characteristics different from those of traded options, in the opinion of management, the existing models do not necessarily provide a reliable single measure of the fair value of its options. The weighted average fair value of options granted was $1.77 and $1.67, respectively, for options granted during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009. The weighted average fair value of options granted was $3.73 for options granted during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008.
	The Company calculates expected volatility for stock options and awards using both historical volatility as well as the average volatility of its peer competitors. Historical volatility is not strictly used due to the material changes in the Company’s operations as a result of the sales of business segments that occurred in 2004 and 2005 (see Note 2 to the Company’s consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on From 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008).
	The Company currently estimates a nine percent forfeiture rate for stock options, but will continue to review this estimate in future periods.
	The Company also has an Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “Purchase Plan”). A maximum of 100,000 shares may be sold under the Purchase Plan. There were 5,685 and 23,898 shares purchased under the plan for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009 and a cumulative total of 58,111 shares purchased as of September 30, 2009.
	The risk-free rates for the expected terms of the stock options and awards and the Purchase Plan is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant.
	The weighted average remaining contractual life of options exercisable at September 30, 2009 was 5.4 years.
	The Company recorded $146,000 and $418,000 of non-cash stock option expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009 respectively, compared with $132,000 and $401,000 of non-cash stock option expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008, respectively. As of September 30, 2009, the Company has recorded cumulative non-cash stock option expense of $1,438,000 since January 1, 2006, the first period for which options expense was recorded in the Company’s Statement of Operations. As of September 30, 2009, there was $675,000 of total unrecognized compensation costs related to non-vested awards that are expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.6 years.
12.	Income Per Share
	The following table presents a reconciliation between basic and diluted earnings per share:

16

	Three Months Ended					Nine Months Ended
	September 30, 2009			September 30, 2008		September 30, 2009			September 30, 2008
Numerator:
Net (loss) income	$	(736,247	)	$	308,769	$	(2,323,440	)	$	868,543
Denominator:
Basic – weighted shares outstanding		5,412,100			5,314,760		5,369,767			5,309,418
Weighted shares assumed upon exercise of stock options		—			137,909		—			240,508
Diluted – weighted shares outstanding		5,412,000			5,452,669		5,369,767			5,549,926
Basic (loss) earnings per share	$	(0.14	)	$	0.06	$	(0.43	)	$	0.16
Diluted (loss) earnings per share	$	(0.14	)	$	0.06	$	(0.43	)	$	0.16

	The dilutive impact summarized above relates to the periods when the average market price of Company stock exceeded the exercise price of the potentially dilutive option securities granted. Earnings per common share was based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the periods when computing the basic earnings per share. When dilutive, stock options are included as equivalents using the treasury stock market method when computing the diluted earnings per share.
	Excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009, were options to purchase approximately 1,057,650 common shares with an average exercise price of $5.69 because the effect would have been anti-dilutive. Excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008, were options to purchase approximately 294,450 and 231,950 common shares, respectively, with an average exercise price of $11.63 and $12.96, respectively, because the effect would have been anti-dilutive.
13.	Derivative Financial Instruments
	Derivative financial instruments are used by the Company in the management of its interest rate and foreign currency exposure. The Company does not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading purposes. When entered into, the Company formally designates the derivative financial instrument as a hedge of a specific underlying exposure if such criteria are met, and documents both the risk management objectives and strategies for undertaking the hedge. The Company formally assesses, both at inception and at least quarterly thereafter, whether the derivative financial instruments that are used in hedging transactions are effective at offsetting changes in either the fair value or cash flows of the related underlying exposure. Because of the high correlation between the derivative financial instrument and the underlying exposure being hedged, fluctuations in the value of the derivative financial instruments are generally offset by changes in the fair values or cash flows of the underlying exposures being hedged. Any ineffective portion of a derivative financial instrument’s change in fair value would be immediately recognized in earnings.
	The Company uses interest rate swaps to manage its interest rate risk. The swaps are designated as cash flow hedges with the changes in fair value recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss and as a derivative hedge asset or liability, as applicable. The swaps settle periodically in arrears with the related amounts for the current settlement period payable to, or receivable from, the counter-parties included in accrued liabilities or accounts receivable and recognized in earnings as an adjustment to interest expense from the underlying debt to which the swap is designated.
	Upon termination of the Bank of America credit facility, the Company was required to settle the outstanding obligations of $121,000 for the liability related to its interest rate swap agreement with Bank of America and recognize the corresponding charge of $121,000 in interest expense, which was previously included in other comprehensive income.
	In conjunction with the new credit facility, the Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement with The Private Bank and Trust Company. At September 30, 2009 the Company had a United States Dollar (“USD”) denominated interest rate swap outstanding which effectively fixed the interest rate on floating rate debt, exclusive of lender spreads, at 2.75% for a notional principal amount of $4,000,000 through October 2009. The derivative net loss on this contract recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss at September 30, 2009 was $9,000.

14.	Comprehensive (Loss) Income
	The components of comprehensive (loss) income, as required to be reported by SFAS No. 130, Reporting Comprehensive Income, were as follows:

	Three Months Ended						Nine Months Ended
	September 30, 2009			September 30, 2008			September 30, 2009			September 30, 2008
Net (loss) income	$	(736,247	)	$	308,769		$	(2,323,440	)	$	868,543
Change in fair value of interest rate swap		101,785			(1,752	)		127,720			(2,535	)
(Loss) gain on foreign currency translation adjustment		15,754			(57,864	)		17,266			(36,965	)
Comprehensive (loss) income	$	(618,708	)	$	249,153		$	(2,178,454	)	$	829,043

15.	Legal Proceedings
	We are a defendant along with a number of other parties in approximately 122 lawsuits as of December 31, 2008 alleging that plaintiffs have or may have contracted asbestos-related diseases as a result of exposure to asbestos products or equipment containing asbestos sold by one or more named defendants. Due to the noninformative nature of the complaints, we do not know whether any of the complaints state valid claims against us. Certain insurance carriers have informed us that the primary policies for the period August 1, 1970-1973, have been exhausted and that the carriers will no longer provide a defense under those policies. We have requested that the carriers substantiate this situation. We believe we have additional policies available for other years which have been ignored by the carriers. Because settlement payments are applied to all years a litigant was deemed to have been exposed to asbestos, we believe when settlement payments are applied to these additional policies, we will have availability under the years deemed exhausted. We do not believe that the asserted exhaustion of the primary insurance coverage for this period will have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, liquidity, or results of operations. Management believes that the number of insurance carriers involved in the defense of the suits and the significant number of policy years and policy limits, to which these insurance carriers are insuring us, make the ultimate disposition of these lawsuits not material to our consolidated financial position or results of operations.
	The Company’s former wholly owned French subsidiary, Selas SAS, filed for insolvency in France and is being managed by a court appointed administrator. The Company may be subject to additional litigation or liabilities as a result of the French insolvency proceeding.
	We are also involved in other lawsuits arising in the normal course of business. While it is not possible to predict with certainty the outcome of these matters, management is of the opinion that the disposition of these lawsuits and claims will not materially affect our consolidated financial position, liquidity or results of operations.
16.	Related-Party Transactions
	One of the Company’s subsidiaries leases office and factory space from a partnership consisting of three present or former officers of the subsidiary, including Mark Gorder, a member of the Company’s Board of Directors and the President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company. The subsidiary is required to pay all real estate taxes and operating expenses. In the opinion of management, the terms of the lease agreement are comparable to those which could be obtained from unaffiliated third parties. The total base rent expense, real estate taxes and other charges incurred under the lease was approximately $123,000 and $365,000 for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2009, respectively. The total base rent expense, real estate taxes and other charges incurred under the lease was approximately $118,000 and $356,000 for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2008, respectively. Annual lease commitments, which include base rent expense, real estate taxes and other charges, approximate $479,000 through October 2011.

18

	The Company uses the law firm of Blank Rome LLP for legal services. A partner of that firm is the son-in-law of the Chairman of the Company’s Board of Directors. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009, the Company paid that firm approximately $127,000 and $219,000, respectively, for legal services and costs. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008, the Company paid that firm approximately $32,000 and $194,000, respectively, for legal services and costs. The Chairman of our Board of Directors is considered independent under applicable Nasdaq and SEC rules because (i) no payments were made to the Chairman or the partner directly in exchange for the services provided by the law firm and (ii) the amounts paid to the law firm did not exceed the thresholds contained in the Nasdaq standards. Furthermore, the aforementioned partner does not provide any legal services to the Company and is not involved in billing matters.

18.	Investment in Equity Instruments
	The Company owns a 9% partnership interest in the Hearing Instrument Manufacturers Patent Partnership (HIMPP), and is a party to a license agreement that grants the Company access to over 45 US registered patents. The Company recorded a $37,000 and a $165,000 decrease in the carrying amount of the investment, reflecting amortization of the patents, other intangibles and the Company’s portion of the partnership’s operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009, respectively. The Company recorded a $108,000 decrease in the carrying amount of the investment, reflecting amortization of the patents, other intangibles and the Company’s portion of the partnership’s operating results for the nine months ended September 30, 2008, respectively.

The Company has recorded an $18,000 increase and a $55,000 decrease in the carrying amount of the investment, reflecting the Company’s portion of the joint venture’s operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009, respectively. The Company recorded a $37,000 and a $167,000 increase in the carrying amount of the investment, reflecting the Company’s portion of the joint venture’s operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008, respectively.

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

Business Overview

Headquartered in Arden Hills, Minnesota, IntriCon Corporation (together with its subsidiaries referred to as the “Company”, “IntriCon”, “we”, “us” or “our”) is an international firm engaged in designing, developing, engineering and manufacturing body-worn devices and electronic products. Currently, the Company has two operating segments: its body worn device segment and electronics products segment. The Company serves the body-worn device market by designing, developing, engineering and manufacturing micro-miniature injection-molded plastics, microelectronics, micro-mechanical assemblies and complete assemblies, primarily for bio-telemetry devices, medical equipment, hearing instruments, electronics, professional audio and telecommunications devices and computers. In addition to its operations in Minnesota, the Company has facilities in California, Maine, Singapore, and Germany.

Prior to 2008, the Company’s body-worn device and electronics products segments were combined in the Company’s precision miniature medical and electronics products segment. The Company determined these segments no longer meet the criteria for aggregation. The nature of the products and services has been deemed separately identifiable, as the Company has further developed technologies and products included in the body-worn device segment. Furthermore, as the underlying products and technology have changed, the economic characteristics of each business segment are not expected to be similar. Our electronics products segment margin is subject to more variability due to material pricing and we believe our future revenue growth and margin will be different for each segment as a result of the proprietary technology included in our body-worn device products.

Body-Worn Device Segment

Medical

In the medical market, the Company is focused on sales of multiple biotelemetry devices from life-critical diagnostic monitoring devices to drug-delivery systems. Using our nanoDSP™ and ultra-low power (“ULP”) nanoLink™ technology, the Company manufactures microelectronics, micro-mechanical assemblies, high-precision injection-molded plastic components and complete bio-telemetry devices for emerging and leading medical device manufacturers. Targeted customers include medical product manufacturers of portable and lightweight battery powered devices, as well as a variety of sensors designed to connect a patient to an electronic device.

The medical industry is faced with pressures to reduce the costs of healthcare. IntriCon currently serves this market by offering medical manufacturers the capabilities to design, develop and manufacture components for medical devices that are easier to use, measure with greater accuracy and provide more functions while reducing the costs to manufacture these devices. Examples include sensors used to detect pathologies in specific organs of the body and monitoring devices to detect cardiac, respiratory functions, and blood glucose levels. The early and accurate detection of pathologies allows for increased likelihood for successful treatment of chronic diseases and cancers. Accurate monitoring of multiple functions of the body, such as heart rate, breathing and blood glucose levels, aids in generating more accurate diagnosis and treatments for patients. IntriCon manufactures and supplies bubble sensors and flow restrictors that monitor and control the flow of fluid in an intravenous infusion system. IntriCon also manufactures a family of safety needle products for an original equipment manufacturer (“OEM”) customer that utilizes IntriCon’s insert and straight molding capabilities. These products are assembled using full automation including built-in quality checks within the production lines.

In addition, there has been an industry-wide trend toward further miniaturization and ambulatory operation enabled by wireless connectivity, which is also referred to as bio-telemetry. Through the further development of our ULP BodyNet™ family, a series of wirelessly enabled products including our new wireless nanoLink™ family, we believe the bio-telemetry offers a significant future opportunity. Increasingly, the medical industry is looking for wireless, low-power capabilities in their devices. We believe our strategic partnership with AME will allow us to develop new bio-telemetry devices that better connect patients and care givers, providing critical information and feedback. Current examples of IntriCon bio-telemetry products used by medical device manufacturers include components found in wireless glucose sensor transmitters that assist in continuous glucose monitoring.

21

To further accelerate our bio-telemetry initiative, on August 13, 2009, the Company acquired all of the outstanding stock of Jon Barron, Inc. trading as Datrix (“Datrix”), a privately held developer, manufacturer, tester and marketer of medical devices and related software products. The acquisition provides the Company entry into the cardio diagnostic monitoring market. We intend to leverage Datrix’s cardiac monitoring capabilities and IntriCon’s sale and marketing abilities develop and launch a new wireless cardiac monitoring device that will allow more patient comfort and be able to identify asymptomatic cardiac events including atrial fibrillation, Brady arrhythmia, tachy arrhythmia and cardiac pause. In addition we believe the acquisition of Datrix is the first step in creating a platform of proprietary, higher margin, physiological monitoring devices with biotelemetry capability including CDM devices but also miniature body-worn devices for sleep apnea diagnosis and other emerging physiological monitoring applications.

Hearing Health

IntriCon manufactures hybrid amplifiers and integrated circuit components (“hybrid amplifiers”), along with faceplates for in-the-ear and in-the-canal hearing instruments. IntriCon is a leading manufacturer and supplier of microminiature electromechanical components to hearing instrument manufacturers. These components consist of volume controls, microphones, receivers, trimmer potentiometers and switches. Components are offered in a variety of sizes, colors and capacities in order to accommodate a hearing manufacturer’s individualized specifications.

Hearing instruments, which fit behind or in a person’s ear to amplify and process sound for a hearing impaired person, generally are composed of four basic parts and several supplemental components for control or fitting purposes. The four basic parts are microphones, amplifier circuits, miniature receivers/speakers and batteries, all of which IntriCon manufactures, with the exception of the battery. IntriCon’s hybrid amplifiers are a type of amplifier circuit. Supplemental components include volume controls, trimmer potentiometers, which shape sound frequencies to respond to the particular nature of a person’s hearing loss, and switches used to turn the instrument on and off and to go from telephone to normal speech modes. Faceplates and an ear shell, molded to fit the user’s ear, often serve as housing for hearing instruments. IntriCon manufactures its components on a short lead-time basis in order to supply “just-in-time” delivery to its customers; consequently, order backlog amounts are not meaningful.

Using our ULP BodyNet™ family technology, specifically nanoDSP™ and our new wireless nanoLink™ product family, IntriCon is building a new generation of affordable, high-quality hearing aids and similar amplifier devices under contracts for OEM’s. Digital signal processing (“DSP”) devices have better clarity, attractive pricing points and an improved ability to filter out background noise. Recently we introduced Scenic, our new high-performance adaptive DSP hearing instrument amplifier. In our view, Scenics’ advanced capabilities are ideally suited for the hearing health market. We believe the introduction of Scenic solidifies our position as a leader of high-performance adaptive DSP hearing instrument amplifiers. Furthermore, we believe our strategic alliance with Dynamic Hearing will allow us to develop new body-worn applications and further expand both our hearing health and professional audio product portfolio.

Overall, we believe the hearing health market holds significant opportunities for the Company. In the United States, Europe and Japan, the 65-year-old-plus age demographic is the fastest growing segment of the population, and many of those individuals will, at some point, benefit from a hearing device that uses IntriCon’s proprietary technology.

While it harbors great potential, the hearing health market is experiencing slowness due to macroeconomic conditions. We believe the softness in the market will continue into 2010. In general, the U.S. market does not provide insurance reimbursement for hearing aid purchases. People can defer their hearing aid purchase. Reimbursement trends in Europe are more favorable, with insurers and the governments covering more devices.

Professional Audio Communications

IntriCon entered the high-quality audio communication device market in 2001, and now has a line of miniature, professional audio headset products used by customers focusing on homeland security and emergency response needs. The line includes several communication devices that are extremely portable and perform well in noisy or hazardous environments. These products are well suited for applications in the fire, law enforcement, safety, aviation and military markets. In addition, the Company has a line of miniature ear- and head-worn devices used by performers and support staff in the music and stage performance markets. Our 2007 acquisition of Tibbetts Industries provided the Company access to homeland security agencies in this market. We believe performance in difficult listening environments and wireless operations will continue to improve as these products increasingly include our proprietary nanoDSP™, wireless nanoLink™ and ULP nanoLink™ technology.

The current economic environment has had an adverse impact on this segment. In the first half of 2009, various customers in this market were cautiously working through their inventories and delaying projects due to current economic uncertainties and lower demand for their products. The Company is seeing initial signs that customers are re-stocking inventories. IntriCon believes this business has stabilized and anticipates flat to modest sequential growth for the remainder of the year. Despite the short-term decline, we believe our extensive portfolio of communication devices that are portable and perform well in noisy or hazardous environments will provide for future long-term growth in this market.

22

Electronics Products Segment

Our electronic products segment business is conducted by RTI Electronics, Inc. (“RTIE”), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. RTIE manufactures and sells thermistors and thermistor assemblies, which are solid state devices that produce precise changes in electrical resistance as a function of any change in absolute body temperature. RTIE sells through its Surge-Gard™ product line, an inrush current limiting device used primarily in computer power supplies. The balance of sales represents various industrial, commercial and military sales for other thermistor, film capacitor and magnetic products to domestic and international markets. Sales for this segment continue to experience significant declines. The Company has aggressively reduced costs to properly align expenses with current revenue levels of this segment. In addition to reducing the cost structure of this business, management is exploring all strategic options.

Our net sales are comprised of two segments serving four main markets: hearing health, medical, professional audio device and electronics. Sales, net broken down by market for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 was as follows: medical 40%, hearing health 33%, professional audio communications 17% and electronics 10%. Sales, net for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009 were down 12 and 17 percent, respectively, over the same prior year periods, as a result of the fluctuations described below.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009, we experienced increases of 13 and 11 percent, respectively, in net sales in the medical equipment market as a direct result of increased sales to existing OEM customers. Management believes there is an industry-wide trend toward further miniaturization and ambulatory operation enabled by wireless connectivity, referred to as bio-telemetry, which resulted in further growth in our medical business. We have experienced solid growth in our most advanced bio-telemetry device, a continuous wireless glucose monitor, which we manufacture for a major medical OEM. We are also working with our strategic partner, AME, on proprietary biotelemetry technologies that will enable us to develop new devices that connect patients and care givers, providing critical information and feedback. In addition we believe the acquisition of Datrix is the first step in creating a platform of proprietary, higher margin, physiological monitoring devices with biotelemetry capability including CDM devices but also miniature body-worn devices for sleep apnea diagnosis and other emerging physiological monitoring applications.

Net sales in our hearing health business for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009 decreased 26 and 28 percent, respectively, from the same periods in 2008, primarily due to lower demand from our customers in this market as people delayed hearing aid purchases. We believe the softness in the market will continue into 2010, with customers beginning to cautiously replenish inventory levels and reengage projects in early to mid 2010. Despite the anticipated short-term softness, we believe our longer term prospects in our hearing health business remain strong as we continue to develop advanced technologies, such as our nanoDSP™, which will enhance the performance of hearing devices. In addition, we believe the market indicators in the hearing health industry, including the aging world population, suggest long-term industry growth.

Net sales to the professional audio device sector declined 19 and 32 percent for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2009, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2008, impacted by various customers in this market cautiously working through their inventories and delaying projects due to current economic uncertainties and lower demand for their products. In spite of this decline, we believe our extensive portfolio of communication devices that are portable and perform well in noisy or hazardous environments will provide for future long-term growth in this market. These products are well suited for applications in fire, law enforcement, safety, aviation and military markets.

Electronics net sales for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009 decreased 24 and 30 percent, respectively, from 2008 primarily due to lower demand from our customers in this market. Management has made efforts to reduce this segment’s cost structure.

Gross margin

Gross margin for the three and nine months ended September 30, was as follows (in thousands):

	2009					2008					Change
	Dollars		% of Sales			Dollars		% of Sales			Dollars			%
Three months ended September 30
Body-Worn Devices	$	2,611		20.3	%	$	3,886		25.0	%	$	(1,193	)		(30.7	%)
Electronic Products	$	301		22.4	%	$	369		18.7	%	$	(212	)		(57.5	%)

The decreased body-worn device selling expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009 as compared to the prior year periods were driven by decreases in royalties and commissions as a result of lower revenues, lower salary and benefit expenses from lower headcount levels and decreased bad debt expense. The decrease in body-worn device general and administrative expenses were driven by cost control measures taken by the Company in conjunction with the revenue decreases including lower salary and benefit expenses from reduced headcount levels, partially offset by increases in professional and legal fees compared to the prior year. Our previously announced cost reduction program remains in effect indefinitely. We will continue to focus on these activities for the reminder of 2009 and into 2010 to further increase margins and reduce operating expenses. The body-worn device research and development expenses were consistent as compared to the prior year due to our continued emphasis on investing in research and development projects to develop new products and technology to further enhance our product portfolio, including expenses recognized from our partnership with Dynamic Hearing.

Electronics products SG&A expenses decreased for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009 as compared to the prior year periods as a result of management’s efforts to reduce this segment cost structure in the face of declining revenues.

Interest expense

Interest expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009 was $386,000 and $635,000, respectively, compared to $165,000 and $547,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008, respectively. The increase in interest expense was due primarily to the August 13, 2009 debt financing with The PrivateBank and Trust Company, including $84,000 of deferred financing costs, $121,000 to terminate and settle our Bank of America interest rate swap and $62,000 of charges and interest incurred to repurchase equipment under our Bank of America capital lease facility.

Equity in (loss) earnings of partnerships

The equity in (loss) earnings of partnerships for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009 was ($19,000) and ($220,000), respectively, compared to $29,000 and $59,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008, respectively.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009, the Company recorded decreases of $37,000 and $165,000, respectively, in the carrying amount of the HIMPP investment, reflecting amortization of the patents and other intangibles, and the Company’s portion of the partnership’s operating losses, compared to $0 and $108,000 decreases for the same respective periods in 2008.

The Company recorded an $18,000 increase and a $55,000 decrease in the carrying amount of IntriCon Tibbetts Corporation’s investment in joint venture, reflecting the Company’s portion of the joint venture’s operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009, respectively. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008, the Company recorded increases of $37,000 and $167,000, respectively, for the Company’s portion of the joint venture’s operating results.

Other income (expense), net

Other income (expense), net for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009, was ($239,000) and ($171,000), respectively, compared to $30,000 and ($19,000) for the same periods in 2008. The increase in other expense primarily relates to costs associated with the Datrix acquisition.

Income taxes

Income tax expense (benefit) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009, was $8,000 and ($14,000), respectively, compared to expense of $82,000 and $197,000 and for the same periods in 2008. The reduction in expense and the benefit recognized in 2009 were primarily due operating losses incurred on both domestic and foreign operations.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of September 30, 2009, we had approximately $1.3 million of cash on hand. Sources of our cash for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 have been from our operations and new credit facility, as described below.

The Company’s cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities, as reflected in the statement of cash flows, are summarized as follows (in thousands):

	Nine Months Ended

To finance a portion of the Datrix acquisition and replace the Company’s existing credit facilities with Bank of America, including capital leases, the Company and its domestic subsidiaries entered into a new three year credit facility with The PrivateBank and Trust Company on August 13, 2009. The credit facility provides for:

§	an $8,000,000 revolving credit facility, with a $200,000 subfacility for letters of credit. Under the revolving credit facility, the availability of funds depends on a borrowing base composed of stated percentages of the Company’s eligible trade receivables and eligible inventory, and eligible equipment less a reserve; and
§	a $3,500,000 term loan.

Loans under the credit facility are secured by a security interest in substantially all of the assets of the Company and its domestic subsidiaries including a pledge of the stock of its domestic subsidiaries. Loans under the credit facility bear interest at varying rates based on predefined levels of Funded Debt / EBITDA, at the option of the Company, at:

§	the London InterBank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) plus 3.00% - 4.00%, or
§	the base rate, which is the higher of (a) the rate publicly announced from time to time by the lender as its “prime rate” and (b) the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.5%, plus 0.25% - 1.25%.

Weighted average interest on the new domestic asset-based revolving credit facility was 5.19% for the three months ended September 30, 2009. The outstanding balance of the revolving credit facility was $5,000,000 at September 30, 2009. The total remaining availability on the revolving credit facility was approximately $3,000,000 at September 30, 2009.

The principal balance of the term loan was $3,400,000 at September 30, 2009.

Upon termination of the Bank of America credit facility, the Company was required to settle the outstanding obligations of $121,000 for the liability related to its interest rate swap agreement with Bank of America and recognize the corresponding charge of $121,000 in interest expense which was previously included in other comprehensive income (loss). In addition the Company expensed the remaining deferred financing costs of $86,000 related to the Bank of America facility, which is included in interest expense.

     The prior credit facility provided for:

§	a $10,000,000 revolving credit facility, with a $200,000 subfacility for letters of credit. Under the revolving credit facility, the availability of funds depends on a borrowing base composed of stated percentages of our eligible trade receivables and eligible inventory, less a reserve.
§	a $4,500,000 term loan, which was used to fund the Company’s May, 2007 acquisition of Tibbetts Industries, Inc.

Loans under the credit facility were secured by a security interest in substantially all of the assets of the borrowers including a pledge of the stock of the subsidiaries. All of the borrowers were jointly and severally liable for all borrowings under the credit facility.

The principal balance of the Bank of America term loan was $2,756,250 at December 31, 2008. In 2008, we used proceeds of $1,013,000 from the equipment sale-leaseback described below to pay down the term loan.

The outstanding balance of the Bank of America revolving credit facility was $3,000,000 at December 31, 2008. The total remaining availability on the revolving credit facility was approximately $4,349,000 at December 31, 2008.

In June 2008, the Company completed a sale-leaseback of machinery and equipment with Bank of America. The transaction generated proceeds of $1,098,000, of which $1,013,000 was used to pay down the domestic term loan. The facility was repaid on August 13, 2009 with proceeds borrowed under the new PrivateBank facility.

In addition to its domestic credit facilities, the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, IntriCon, PTE LTD., entered into an international senior secured credit agreement with Oversea-Chinese Banking Corporation Ltd. that provides for approximately $1.8 million line of credit. Borrowings bear interest at a rate of .75% to 2.5% over the lender’s prevailing prime lending rate. Weighted average interest on the international credit facilities was 5.57% and 6.48% for the three months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively, and 5.57% and 5.71% for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively. The outstanding balance was $430,000 and $605,000 at September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively. The total remaining availability on the international senior secured credit agreement was approximately $1,420,000 and $1,203,000 at September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively.

We believe that funds expected to be generated from operations, the available borrowing capacity through our revolving credit loan facilities and the control of capital spending will be sufficient to meet our anticipated cash requirements for operating needs for at least the next 12 months. If, however, we do not generate sufficient cash from operations, or if we incur additional unanticipated liabilities, we may be required to seek additional financing or sell equity or debt on terms which may not be as favorable as we could have otherwise obtained. No assurance can be given that any refinancing, additional borrowing or sale of equity or debt will be possible when needed or that we will be able to negotiate acceptable terms. In addition, our access to capital is affected by prevailing conditions in the financial and equity capital markets, as well as its own financial condition. While management believes that we will be able to meet our liquidity needs for at least the next 12 months, no assurance can be given that we will be able to do so.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In September 2009, the FASB issued ASU No. 2009-12, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820): Investments in Certain Entities That Calculate Net Asset Value per Share (or Its Equivalent),” which amends ASC 820-10, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures—Overall.” ASU No. 2009-12 permits a reporting entity to measure the fair value of certain alternative investments that do not have a readily determinable fair value on the basis of the investments’ net asset value per share or its equivalent. This ASU also requires expanded disclosures. This guidance will become effective for us October 1, 2009 and will not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In August 2009, the FASB issued ASU No. 2009-05, “Measuring Liabilities at Fair Value.” ASU 2009-05 amends ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements,” by providing additional guidance on determining the fair value of liabilities when a quoted price in an active market for an identical liability is not available. This ASU will become effective for us on October 1, 2009 and is not expected to have a significant impact on the measurement of our liabilities as of that date.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make certain assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expense during the reporting period.

Certain accounting estimates and assumptions are particularly sensitive because their significance to the consolidated condensed financial statements and the possibility that future events affecting them may differ markedly. The accounting policies of the Company with significant estimates and assumptions include the Company’s revenue recognition, accounts receivable reserves, inventory valuation, goodwill, long-lived assets, deferred taxes policies and employee benefit obligations. These and other significant accounting policies are described in and incorporated by reference from “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” and Note 1 to the financial statements contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008.

ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

For information regarding the Company’s exposure to certain market risks, see Item 7A, Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk, in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008. There have been no material changes in the Company’s market risk exposures which have occurred since December 31, 2008.

ITEM 4T. Controls and Procedures

The Company’s management, with the participation of its chief executive officer and chief financial officer, conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e), as of September 30, 2009 (the “Disclosure Controls Evaluation”). Based on the Disclosure Controls Evaluation, the Company’s chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide a reasonable level of assurance that: (i) information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports the Company files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”), is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms and (ii) information required to be disclosed in the reports the Company files or submits under Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including the principal executive officer and principal financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure, all in accordance with Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e).

There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f), during the quarter ended September 30, 2009, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.
