Overview

We are a provider of innovative accessories and power management solutions for the electronics industry. Our vision is to attach our products and technology to every mobile electronic device. Increased functionality and the ability to access and manage information remotely are driving the proliferation of mobile electronic devices and applications. The popularity of these devices is increasing due to reductions in size, weight and cost and improvements in functionality, storage capacity and reliability. Each of these devices needs to be powered and connected when in the home, in the office, or on the road, and each can be accessorized, representing opportunities for one or more of our products.

We design and develop products that make computers and mobile electronic devices more efficient and cost effective, thus enabling professionals and consumers higher utilization of their mobile devices and the ability to access information more readily. Our current product offering primarily consists of power, batteries, audio and protection solutions for mobile electronic devices, and we intend to continue to introduce new accessories for mobile electronic devices.

Power

The centerpiece of our power management solutions is our proprietary iGo Greenฎ technology. Our first iGo Green products are laptop chargers and surge protectors that incorporate our patented technology. Our iGo Green technology reduces energy consumption and almost completely eliminates standby power, or "Vampire Power." We believe that this power-saving technology will help us achieve our long-term goal of establishing an industry standard for reduced power consumption when charging mobile electronic devices.

Batteries

Through our relationship with Pure Energy, we are the exclusive marketer and distributor of Pure Energy's patented rechargeable alkaline (RAMcell) batteries to retailers worldwide (excluding China) with non-exclusive distribution rights in Africa. RAMcell batteries are pre-charged and hold a charge for up to seven years. RAMcell batteries provide users an environmentally friendly, cost-effective alternative to disposable alkaline batteries. We believe that RAMcell batteries and related battery chargers are complementary to our power-saving technology and contribute to lower levels of electronic waste.

Audio

As a result of our acquisition of Aerial7 in 2010, we offer a line of earbuds and headphones. As mobile phones have evolved into smartphones and new portable media devices capable of playing music and video, many consumers utilize a variety of mobile electronic devices for both communication and entertainment purposes. Our audio products are uniquely designed to provide enhanced sound quality compared to competitive products at similar price points. They also offer consumers the ability to both communicate with others via an integrated microphone that can be used with a portable computer, mobile phone, computer or other portable media device as well as the ability to listen to music or video from these devices. In addition to delivering quality sound output, our line of audio products is designed to appeal to the fashion sense of consumers, allowing them to express their unique and personal style through their mobile electronic devices. Currently, our audio products are offered primarily through lifestyle and music retailers around the world. We intend, however, to expand our line of audio products and increase its distribution through global, broad-based consumer electronics retailers as well.

Protection

As a result of our acquisition of Adapt in 2010, we also offer a line of skins, cases and screen protectors for mobile electronic devices. Consumers value the protection of their mobile electronic devices as they rely on them heavily in their daily lives to both connect with others and store information. Consumers also view our protection products as a way to express personal fashion and style, much like they do with our audio products, clothing and other personal accessories. Our line of protection products is designed to meet both of these consumer needs by providing consumers with a high degree of protection and a unique, fashionable design that fits their personal styles. Currently, we offer our cases, skins, screen protectors and other similar products primarily in Europe.

Our ability to execute successfully on our near and long-term objectives depends largely on general market acceptance of our power, protection and audio products, our ability to protect our unique proprietary rights, including our iGo Green technology, our ability to generate additional major customers, and general economic conditions. Additionally, we must execute on the customer relationships that we have developed and continue to design, develop, manufacture and market new and innovative technology and products that are embraced by these customers and by the overall market.

The decrease in revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2012 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2011 was primarily due to declines in sales volume of power products to Belkin and Office Depot combined with a decline in average selling price for power products to Walmart, partially offset by an increase in sales volume to RadioShack, as indicated in the table above. The decline in sales to all other customers is primarily attributable to lower sales of power products in international markets and the wireless carrier channel. The decrease in power product revenue was also partially offset by an increase in sales of batteries of $144,000 to $435,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2012, compared to battery sales of $291,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2011. We are working to broaden our distribution base and expand sales of product categories other than power with the goal of reducing our dependence on sales of power products to Walmart and RadioShack.

Cost of revenue, gross profit and gross margin. Cost of revenue generally consists of costs associated with components, outsourced manufacturing, in-house labor for assembly, testing, packaging, shipping and quality assurance, depreciation of equipment and indirect manufacturing costs. Gross profit is the difference between revenue and cost of revenue. Gross margin is gross profit stated as a percentage of revenue. The following table summarizes the year-over-year comparison of our cost of revenue, gross profit and gross margin for the periods indicated (dollars in thousands):

Table of Contents

The decrease in cost of revenue and gross profit is primarily due to the decline in overall sales, shift in product mix, and decline in average selling prices to Walmart and other customers. Labor and overhead expenses, which are mostly fixed, decreased by $400,000 to $1.4 million, or 18.7% of revenue, for the three months ended June 30, 2012, compared to $1.8 million, or 16.2% of revenue, for the three months ended June 30, 2011. The decline in gross margin is primarily due to the decline in selling price relating to power products, audio and other accessories. However, cost of revenue as a percentage of revenue increased to 80.3% for the three months ended June 30, 2012 from 74.1% for the three months ended June 30, 2011, primarily due to the decline in overall sales.

Sales and marketing. Sales and marketing expenses generally consist of salaries, commissions, other personnel-related costs of our sales, marketing and support personnel, advertising, public relations, promotions, printed media and travel. The following table summarizes the year-over-year comparison of our sales and marketing expenses for the periods indicated (dollars in thousands):

The decrease in sales and marketing expenses primarily resulted from decreases of approximately $214,000 in personnel-related expenses and $363,000 in advertising, market research, public relations and website development expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2012, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2011. As a percentage of revenue, sales and marketing expenses increased to 21.3% for the three months ended June 30, 2012 from 20.0% for the three months ended June 30, 2011.

Research and development. Research and development expenses consist primarily of salaries and personnel-related costs, outside consulting, lab costs and travel-related costs of our product development group. The following table summarizes the year-over-year comparison of our research and development expenses for the periods indicated (dollars in thousands):

The increase in research and development expenses primarily resulted from the increase of approximately $22,000 in personnel-related expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2011. As a percentage of revenue, research and development expenses increased to 8.6% for the three months ended June 30, 2012 from 5.6% for the three months ended June 30, 2011. We anticipate increased research and development expenses in the remainder of 2012 compared to 2011.

General and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries and other personnel-related expenses of our finance, human resources, information systems, corporate development and other administrative personnel, as well as facilities, legal and other professional fees, depreciation and amortization and related expenses. The following table summarizes the year-over-year comparison of our general and administrative expenses for the periods indicated (dollars in thousands):

The decrease in general and administrative expenses primarily resulted from a decrease of $121,000 in personnel-related expenses and $170,000 in equity compensation, partially offset by an increase in bad debt expense of $80,000 during the three months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2011. General and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue increased to 24.8% for the three months ended June 30, 2012 from 18.8% for the three months ended June 30, 2011.

Interest income, net. Interest income, net decreased by $19,000 to $2,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2012 compared to $21,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2011. The decrease was primarily due to decreased short-term investment balances during 2012. At June 30, 2012, the average yield on our cash and short-term investments was approximately 0%.

Other income (expense), net. Other income (expense), net was ($987,000) for the three months ended June 30, 2012 compared to $50,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2011. The decrease was primarily due to the recognition of other-than-temporary impairment charges related to long term investment securities, as discussed in Note 3 to the condensed consolidated financial statements in Part 1, Item 1.

Income taxes. No provision for income taxes was required for the three months ended June 30, 2012 or 2011. Based on historical operating losses and projections for future taxable income, it is more likely than not that we will not fully realize the benefits of the net operating loss carryforwards. We have not, therefore, recorded a tax benefit from our net operating loss carryforwards for either of the three months ended June 30, 2012 or June 30, 2011, which at June 30, 2012 totaled approximately $170 million.
