Includes currency on hand as well as demand deposits with banks or financial institutions. It also includes other kinds of accounts that have the general characteristics of demand deposits in that the Entity may deposit additional funds at any time and also effectively may withdraw funds at any time without prior notice or penalty. Cash equivalents, excluding items classified as marketable securities, include short-term, highly liquid investments that are both readily convertible to known amounts of cash, and so near their maturity that they present minimal risk of changes in value because of changes in interest rates. Generally, only investments with original maturities of three months or less qualify under that definition. Original maturity means original maturity to the entity holding the investment. For example, both a three-month US Treasury bill and a three-year Treasury note purchased three months from maturity qualify as cash equivalents. However, a Treasury note purchased three years ago does not become a cash equivalent when its remaining maturity is three months. Compensating balance arrangements that do not legally restrict the withdrawal or usage of cash amounts may be reported as Cash and Cash Equivalents, while legally restricted deposits held as compensating balances against borrowing arrangements, contracts entered into with others, or company statements of intention with regard to particular deposits are not generally reported as cash and cash equivalents.

Cash equivalents, excluding items classified as marketable securities, include short-term, highly liquid investments that are both readily convertible to known amounts of cash, and so near their maturity that they present minimal risk of changes in value because of changes in interest rates. Generally, only investments with original maturities of three months or less qualify under that definition. Original maturity means original maturity to the entity holding the investment. For example, both a three-month US Treasury bill and a three-year Treasury note purchased three months from maturity qualify as cash equivalents. However, a Treasury note purchased three years ago does not become a cash equivalent when its remaining maturity is three months. Compensating balance arrangements that do not legally restrict the withdrawal or usage of cash amounts may be reported as Cash and Cash Equivalents, while legally restricted deposits held as compensating balances against borrowing arrangements, contracts entered into with others, or company statements of intention with regard to particular deposits are not generally reported as cash and cash equivalents. Includes cash and cash equivalents associated with the entity's continuing operations. Excludes cash and cash equivalents associated with the disposal group (and discontinued operation).

| Nature Of Operations And Summary Of Significant Accounting Policies |
Nature of Operations Mitek Systems, Inc. is primarily engaged in the development, sale, and service of its proprietary software solutions related to its mobile imaging solutions and intelligent character recognition software. The Company's technology is currently used by financial institutions to process checks and is used in other markets for specialized applications. The Company's new mobile applications use its proprietary technology to capture and read data from photos of documents taken using camera-equipped smartphones and tablets. The Company has developed and deployed Mobile Deposit®, a software application that allows users to remotely deposit a check using their camera-equipped smartphone or tablet, Mobile Imaging Platform™, an application that allows users to capture, extract and route information contained in documents, including Mobile Photo Quoting™, an application that allows a user to request and receive an insurance quote using their camera-equipped smartphone, Mobile Receipt™, a receipt archival and expense report application and Mobile Phax®, a mobile document faxing application using the Company's proprietary technology. Other mobile applications under development include Mobile Photo Bill Pay™, a mobile bill paying application that allows users to pay their bills using their camera-equipped smartphone or tablet, Mobile Balance Transfer™, a credit card shopping application that allows a user to transfer an existing balance by capturing an image of their current statement and Mobile ACH Enrollment™, an application that enables consumers to enroll their checking accounts as funding sources for mobile payments by taking photos of blank checks with their camera-equipped smartphone or tablet. Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements of the Company as of March 31, 2012 have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X and accordingly, they do not include all information and footnote disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. ("GAAP"). We believe the footnotes and other disclosures made are adequate for a fair presentation of the results of the interim periods presented. The financial statements include all adjustments (solely of a normal recurring nature) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to make the information presented not misleading. You should read these condensed financial statements and the accompanying notes in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2011, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on December 15, 2011 (the "Form 10-K"). Results for the three and six months ended March 31, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of results for any other interim period or for a full year. Reclassifications Certain prior period amounts in our previously issued condensed financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. These reclassifications do not impact the reported net income (loss) for such prior periods and do not have a material impact on the overall presentation of the financial statements. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses and the related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, management reviews its estimates based upon currently available information. Actual future results could differ materially from those estimates. Earnings (Loss) Per Share The Company calculates net income (loss) per share in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 260, Earnings Per Share . Basic net income (loss) per share is based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss) per share also gives effect to all potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the period, such as convertible debt, options, warrants and restricted stock units, if dilutive. In a period with a net loss position, potentially dilutive securities are not included in the computation of diluted net loss because to do so would be antidilutive, and the number of shares used to calculate basic and diluted net loss is the same. As we reported a net loss for the three and six months ended March 31, 2012, 4,418,892 potentially dilutive securities outstanding were not included in the diluted net loss per share calculation because their inclusion would have been antidilutive. For the three and six months ended March 31, 2011, 145,000 and 5,612,661 potentially dilutive securities outstanding, respectively, were not included in the diluted net income (loss) per share calculation.
The computation of basic and diluted net income (loss) per share is as follows:
Revenue Recognition Revenue from sales of software licenses sold through direct and indirect channels is recognized upon shipment of the related product, if the requirements of FASB ASC Topic 985-605, Software Revenue Recognition ("ASC 985-605") are met, including evidence of an arrangement, delivery, fixed or determinable fee, collectability and vendor specific objective evidence ("VSOE") of the fair value of the undelivered element. If the requirements of ASC 985-605 are not met at the date of shipment, revenue is not recognized until such elements are known or resolved. Revenue from customer support services, or maintenance revenue, includes post-contract support and the rights to unspecified upgrades and enhancements. VSOE of fair value for customer support services is determined by reference to the price the customer pays for such element when sold separately; that is, the renewal rate offered to customers. In those instances when objective and reliable evidence of fair value exists for the undelivered items but not for the delivered items, the residual method is used to allocate the arrangement consideration. Under the residual method, the amount of arrangement consideration allocated to the delivered items equals the total arrangement consideration less the aggregate fair value of the undelivered items. Revenue from post-contract customer support is recognized ratably over the term of the contract. Revenue from professional services is recognized when such services are delivered to and accepted by the customer. When a software sales arrangement requires professional services related to significant production, modification or customization of software, or when a customer considers professional services essential to the functionality of the software product, revenue is recognized based on predetermined milestone objectives required to complete the project, as those milestone objectives are deemed to be substantive in relation to the work performed. Any expected losses on contracts in progress are recorded in the period in which the losses become probable and reasonably estimable. Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts Trade accounts receivable are recorded at the net invoice value and are not interest bearing. The Company considers receivables past due based on the contractual payment terms. The allowance for doubtful accounts reflects the Company's best estimate for probable losses inherent in accounts receivable balances. Management determines the allowance based on known troubled accounts, historical experience and other currently available evidence. The allowance for doubtful accounts was $27,528 and $21,344 as of March 31, 2012 and September 30, 2011, respectively. Capitalized Software Development Costs The Company evaluates its capitalized software development costs at each balance sheet date to determine if the unamortized balance related to any given product exceeds the estimated net realizable value of that product. Any such excess is written off through accelerated amortization in the quarter it is identified. Determining net realizable value, as defined by FASB ASC Topic 985-20, Accounting for the Costs of Software to Be Sold, Leased or Otherwise Marketed ("ASC 985-20"), requires making estimates and judgments in quantifying the appropriate amount to write off, if any. Actual amounts realized from the software products could differ from those estimates. Also, any future changes to the Company's product portfolio could result in significant increases to its cost of license revenue as a result of the write-off of capitalized software development costs. In accordance ASC 985-20, the Company amortizes capitalized software development costs using the straight-line method over the remaining economic life of the product, estimated to be three years. The Company recorded amortization of software development costs of $34,289 in both the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 and $68,579 in both the six months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011. The Company records amortization of software development costs as "Cost of revenue-software" in the statements of operations.
Fair Value of Equity Instruments The valuation of certain items, including the valuation of warrants, the beneficial conversion feature related to convertible debt and the compensation expense related to stock options granted, involve significant estimates based on underlying assumptions made by management. The valuation of warrants and stock options is based upon a Black-Scholes valuation model, which involves estimates of stock volatility, expected life of the instruments and other assumptions. Deferred Income Taxes Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. The Company maintains a valuation allowance against the deferred tax assets due to uncertainty regarding the future realization based on historical taxable income, projected future taxable income and the expected timing of the reversals of existing temporary differences. Until such time as the Company can demonstrate that it will no longer incur losses or if it is unable to generate sufficient future taxable income, it could be required to maintain the valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets. Comprehensive (Loss) Income Comprehensive (loss) income consists of net (loss) income and unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale securities. The following table summarizes the components of comprehensive (loss) income:
Accumulated other comprehensive income on the balance sheet at March 31, 2012 includes a net unrealized gain on the Company's available-for-sale securities totaling $194, compared to a net unrealized loss of $9,855 at September 30, 2011. Recent Accounting Pronouncements In May 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2011-04, Fair Value Measurement (ASC Topic 820): Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements ("ASU 2011-04") in GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS"). Under ASU 2011-04, the guidance amends certain accounting and disclosure requirements related to fair value measurements to ensure that fair value has the same meaning in GAAP and in IFRS and that their respective fair value measurement and disclosure requirements are the same. ASU 2011-04 is effective for public entities during interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. Early adoption by public entities was not permitted. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company's financial statements. In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-05, Comprehensive Income (ASC Topic 220): Presentation of Comprehensive Income ("ASU 2011-05"), which amended comprehensive income guidance. This accounting update eliminates the option to present the components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of stockholders' equity. Instead, entities must report comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income, which contains two sections, net income and other comprehensive income, or in two separate but consecutive statements. ASU 2011-05 is effective for public companies during interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011, with early adoption permitted. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company's financial statements. |

The following table summarizes investments by security type:
The cost of securities sold is based on the specific identification method. Amortization of premiums, accretion of discounts, interest, dividend income and realized gains and losses are included in investment income. Realized gains or losses on the Company's investments were immaterial in the three and six months ended March 31, 2012. The Company did not hold any investments during the three and six months ended March 31, 2011. The Company determines the appropriate designation of investments at the time of purchase and re-evaluates such designation as of each balance sheet date. All of the Company's investments were designated as available-for-sale debt securities in the three and six months ended March 31, 2012. As of March 31, 2012, the Company's short-term investments have original maturity dates of greater than 90 days and less than one year. The Company's long-term investments as of March 31, 2012 have original maturity dates between twelve and eighteen months. Available-for-sale marketable securities are carried at fair value as determined by quoted market prices for identical or similar assets, with unrealized gains and losses, net of tax, and reported as a separate component of stockholders' equity. Management reviews the fair value of the portfolio at least quarterly, and evaluates individual securities with fair value below amortized cost as of each balance sheet date. For debt securities, in order to determine whether impairment is other than temporary, management must conclude whether the Company intends to sell the impaired debt security and whether it is more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the debt security before recovering its amortized cost basis. If management intends to sell an impaired debt security or it is more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the debt security prior to recovering its amortized cost basis, an other-than-temporary impairment is deemed to have occurred. The amount of an other-than-temporary impairment on debt securities related to a credit loss, or debt securities that management intends to sell before recovery, is recognized in earnings. The amount of an other-than-temporary impairment on debt securities related to other factors is recorded consistent with changes in the fair value of all other available-for-sale securities as a component of stockholders' equity in other comprehensive income (loss). No other-than-temporary impairment charges were recognized in the three and six months ended March 31, 2012. Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures FASB ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures ("ASC 820") defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value under GAAP and enhances disclosures about fair value measurements. Fair value is defined under ASC 820 as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value under ASC 820 must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. ASC 820 describes a fair value hierarchy based on the following three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value, of which the first two are considered observable and the last unobservable:
The carrying amount of cash equivalents, investments, accounts receivable, accounts payable and other current and non-current liabilities are considered representative of their respective fair values because of the short-term nature of those instruments.
The following table represents the fair value hierarchy for the Company's investments, measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2012:

| Debt [Abstract] | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Debt |
Convertible Debt In December 2009, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement with accredited investors pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue in exchange for aggregate consideration of approximately $1,000,000, the following securities: (i) 5% senior secured convertible debentures in the principal amount of approximately $1,000,000 and (ii) warrants to purchase an aggregate of 337,501 shares of the Company's common stock with an exercise price of $0.91 per share. Each investor received a warrant to purchase that number of shares of the Company's common stock that equals 25% of the quotient obtained by dividing such investor's aggregate subscription amount by $0.75. The transaction resulted in proceeds to the Company of approximately $922,000, net of transaction costs and expenses. In December 2010, the Company converted the then outstanding balance of the debentures of approximately $1,064,000, including accrued interest of approximately $51,000, into 1,418,573 shares of the Company's common stock at a conversion price of $0.75 per share. In addition, the Company recognized as interest expense the remaining unamortized discount of approximately $320,000 related to the beneficial conversion feature at the time of conversion in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 470-20, Debt with Conversion and Other Options. Prior to the conversion, interest was payable in cash or stock at the rate of 5% per annum on each conversion date (as to the principal amount being converted), on each early redemption date (as to the principal amount being redeemed) and on the maturity date. The principal amount of the debentures, if not paid earlier, was due and payable on December 10, 2011. The Company had the right to redeem all or a portion of the debentures before maturity by payment in cash of the outstanding principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest being redeemed. The Company agreed to honor any notices of conversion that it received from the holder before the date the Company paid off the debentures. The debentures were convertible into shares of the Company's common stock at any time at the discretion of the holder at a conversion price of $0.75 per share, subject to adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends and the like. The Company had the right to force conversion of the debentures if (i) the closing price of its common stock exceeded 200% of the then-effective conversion price for 20 trading days out of a consecutive 30 trading day period or (ii) the average daily trading volume for its common stock exceeded 100,000 shares per trading day for 20 trading days out of a consecutive 30 trading day period and the closing price of its common stock exceeded 100% of the then-effective conversion price for 20 trading days out of a consecutive 30 trading day period. The debentures imposed certain covenants on the Company including restrictions against paying cash dividends or distributions on shares of its outstanding common stock. The debentures were secured by all of the Company's assets under the terms of a security agreement it entered into with the investors dated December 10, 2009. In evaluating the accounting for the convertible debentures, the Company considered whether the conversion option related to the convertible debentures required bifurcation and separate accounting as a liability at fair value. Because the conversion option entitled the holder to convert to a fixed number of shares at a fixed price, the Company was not required to bifurcate the conversion option and the related debt host. Similarly, the warrant contract entitled the holder to convert to a fixed number of shares at a fixed price and was therefore recorded in stockholders' equity. Of the gross proceeds, approximately $786,000 was allocated to the debentures and approximately $226,000 to the warrants. The value of the warrants was estimated using a Black-Scholes option valuation model. The amount allocated to the warrants was recorded as a discount on the debentures and was being amortized to interest expense over the term of the debentures. In addition, based on the conversion price of $0.75 and the relative value of the debentures, a beneficial conversion feature of approximately $402,000 was recorded as an additional discount on the debentures and was being amortized to interest expense in the accompanying statements of operations over the term of the debentures.
The fair value of the vested warrants was estimated on the grant date using the Black-Scholes option valuation model with the following assumptions:
Credit Facility In January 2011, the Company entered into a loan and security agreement with its primary operating bank. The loan agreement permits the Company to borrow, repay, and re-borrow, from time to time until January 31, 2013, up to $400,000 subject to the terms and conditions of the agreement. The Company's obligations under the loan agreement are secured by a security interest in its equipment and other personal property.

2012 Incentive Plan In January 2012, the Company's board of directors adopted the Mitek Systems, Inc. 2012 Incentive Plan (the "2012 Plan"), upon the recommendation of the compensation committee of the board of directors. The total number of shares of the Company's common stock reserved for issuance under the 2012 Plan is 2,000,000 shares, plus that number of shares of the Company's common stock that would otherwise return to the available pool of unissued shares reserved for awards under certain of the Company's prior equity plans as a result of forfeiture, cancellation or expiration of awards previously granted under such plans. The 2012 Plan authorizes the grant of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units and cash awards. Stock options granted under the 2012 Plan may be either options intended to constitute incentive stock options or nonqualified stock options, in each case as determined by the compensation committee of the board of directors in accordance with the terms of the 2012 Plan. On February 22, 2012, the Company's stockholders approved the 2012 Plan. Stock-Based Compensation Expense The following table summarizes stock-based compensation expense related to stock options and restricted stock unit awards, which was allocated as follows:
The fair value calculations for stock-based compensation awards to employees for the six month periods ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 were based on the following assumptions:
The expected life of options granted is derived using assumed exercise rates based on historical exercise patterns and vesting terms and represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding. Expected stock price volatility is based upon implied volatility and other factors, including historical volatility. After assessing all available information on either historical volatility, implied volatility, or both, the Company concluded that a combination of both historical and implied volatility provides the best estimate of expected volatility. As of March 31, 2012, approximately $10,407,882 of total unrecognized compensation expense related to stock options and restricted stock unit awards issued to date is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of approximately 3.6 years. The per share weighted-average fair value of options granted during the six months ended March 31, 2012 was $7.20. Common Stock In October 2010, the Company sold 500,000 shares of common stock at $1.50 per share to accredited investors in a private placement, resulting in net proceeds of $750,000. In December 2010, the Company issued 1,418,573 shares of common stock upon the conversion of outstanding convertible debentures as discussed in greater detail in Note 3 to the financial statements included in this Form 10-Q. In May 2011, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement with certain accredited investors pursuant to which, the Company sold to the investors an aggregate of 2,857,143 shares of the Company's common stock at a purchase price of $5.25 per share for aggregate gross proceeds of $15,000,000. The Company paid cash compensation of approximately $1,050,000 in placement agent fees and reimbursed $25,000 of placement agent out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with the financing. In addition, the Company incurred legal fees of approximately $80,000 in connection with the private placement, resulting in net proceeds of approximately $13,845,000. Stock Options The following table summarizes stock option activity under the Company's equity plans for the six months ended March 31, 2012:
The following table summarizes significant ranges of outstanding and exercisable options as of March 31, 2012:
Aggregate intrinsic value represents the value of the Company's closing stock price on the last trading day of the fiscal period in excess of the weighted-average exercise price multiplied by the number of options outstanding or exercisable. The total intrinsic value of options exercised during the six months ended March 31, 2012 was $13,064,815. As of March 31, 2012, there were 3,907,535 options outstanding with a weighted-average remaining contractual term, weighted-average exercise price and aggregate intrinsic value of 6.83 years, $3.23 and $32,597,442, respectively. As of March 31, 2012, there were 2,172,144 options exercisable with a weighted-average remaining contractual term, weighted-average exercise price and aggregate intrinsic value of 5.06 years, $1.03 and $22,955,384, respectively. Restricted Stock Units In January 2011, the Company's board of directors adopted, subject to stockholder approval, the Mitek Systems, Inc. Director Restricted Stock Unit Plan, as amended and restated (the "Director Plan"), reserving up to 1,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock for the issuance of restricted stock units to both employee and non-employee members of the Company's board of directors. On February 23, 2011, the Director Plan was approved by the Company's stockholders. On March 15, 2011, the Company awarded an aggregate of 300,000 restricted stock units to certain of its directors at a fair value of $5.12 per share. The restricted stock units vest in equal monthly installments over five years. To the extent a restricted stock unit becomes vested, and subject to satisfaction of any tax withholding obligations, each vested restricted stock unit will entitle its holder to receive one share of the Company's common stock, which will be settled and deemed issued and outstanding upon the earlier to occur of: (i) a change in control, (ii) a director's separation from service or (iii) the fifth anniversary of the award date. A holder of outstanding restricted stock units has none of the rights and privileges of a stockholder of the Company, including no right to vote or to receive dividends (if any) until such time the awards are settled in shares of the Company's common stock. There were 700,000 shares available for grant under the Director Plan as of March 31, 2012. On February 22, 2012, the Company awarded an aggregate of 155,835 restricted stock units under the 2012 Plan to certain of its employees at a fair value of $11.05 per share. The restricted stock units vest in equal annual installments over four years. The cost of the restricted stock units is determined using the fair value of the Company's common stock on the award date, and the compensation expense is recognized ratably over the vesting period. The Company recognized approximately $137,854 and $214,715 in stock-based compensation expense related to the outstanding restricted stock units in the three and six months ended March 31, 2012, respectively. In the three and six months ended March 31, 2011, the Company recognized $25,620 in stock-based compensation expense related to outstanding restricted stock units. As of March 31, 2012, the Company had approximately $2,863,918 of unrecognized compensation expense related to outstanding restricted stock units expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of approximately 4.0 years. Warrants Historically, the Company has granted warrants to purchase its common stock to service providers and investors. In connection with the issuance of shares of common stock to John H. Harland Company ("JHH Co.") in February and May of 2005, the Company issued warrants to purchase 321,428 shares of the Company's common stock at an exercise price of $0.70 per share, subject to adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends and the like. In June 2011, JHH Co. exercised the warrants, which were due to expire between February and May of 2012. The warrants were exercised under the cashless exercise method, resulting in the issuance of 288,582 shares of the Company's common stock to the warrant holder and the cancellation of the remaining 32,846 shares in consideration of the issuance.
In connection with the issuance of convertible debentures in December 2009, the Company issued warrants to purchase an aggregate of 337,501 shares of the Company's common stock with an exercise price of $0.91 per share, of which warrants to purchase 281,979 shares of the Company's common stock have been exercised and warrants to purchase 55,522 shares of the Company's common stock remain outstanding as of March 31, 2012, subject to adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends and the like. These warrants expire in December 2014 and are discussed in greater detail in Note 3 to the financial statements included in this Form 10-Q. The following table summarizes warrant activity in the six months ended March 31, 2012:

| Income Taxes |
The Company's deferred tax assets are primarily comprised of federal and state net operating loss carryforwards. Such carryforwards began to expire in the fiscal year ended September 30, 2011. The Company's ability to use its net operating loss carryforwards may be substantially limited due to ownership change limitations that may occur in the future, as required by Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended ("Section 382"), as well as similar state law provisions. These potential ownership changes may limit the amount of net operating loss carryforwards that can be utilized annually to offset future taxable income. The Company carries a deferred tax valuation allowance equal to 100% of the net deferred tax assets. In recording this allowance, management has considered a number of factors, particularly the Company's recent history of sustained operating losses. Management has concluded that a valuation allowance is required for 100% of the net deferred tax assets as it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will not be realized. There can be no assurance that the Company will ever realize the benefit of any or all of the federal and state net operating loss carryforwards or the credit carryforwards, either due to ongoing operating losses or due to ownership changes, which limit the usefulness of the net operating loss or credit carryforwards. Any net operating loss or credit carryforwards that will expire prior to utilization or are determined to be limited due to Section 382 will be removed from deferred tax assets with a corresponding reduction to the valuation allowance. Due to the existence of the valuation allowance, it is not expected that any expiration or limitation of net operating loss or credit carryforwards will have an impact on the results of operations or financial position of the Company. The Company recognizes the impact of an uncertain income tax position on its income tax return at the largest amount that is more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon audit by the relevant taxing authority. An uncertain income tax position will not be recognized if it has less than a 50% likelihood of being sustained. The Company's policy is to classify interest and penalties related to income tax matters as income tax expense. The Company had no accrual for interest or penalties as of March 31, 2012 or March 31, 2011, and has not recognized interest and/or penalties in the statements of operations for the six months ended March 31, 2012. The Company is subject to taxation in the U.S. and in various state jurisdictions. Generally, all of the Company's tax returns are subject to examination by U.S. federal tax and state tax authorities due to the Company's net operating loss carryforwards. |

Legal Matters On March 29, 2012, United Services Automobile Association ("USAA") filed a complaint in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Texas San Antonio Division against the Company seeking, among other things, a declaratory judgment that USAA does not infringe certain patents of the Company relating to Mobile Deposit and that such patents are not enforceable against USAA. In addition, USAA alleges that it disclosed confidential information to the Company and that the Company used such information in a patent application. USAA seeks damages and injunctive relief. The Company has moved to dismiss USAA's complaint. On April 12, 2012, the Company filed a lawsuit against USAA in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware. The Company alleges that USAA infringes five of the Company's patents relating to image capture on mobile devices, that USAA breached the parties' license agreement by using the Company's products beyond the scope of the agreed-upon license terms and that USAA breached the parties' license agreement by disclosing confidential pricing and other confidential information for a Company legacy product installation in the lawsuit USAA filed in Texas.
The Company believes that USAA's claims are without merit and intends to vigorously defend against these claims and pursue its claims against USAA. Management of the Company does not believe that USAA's claims or any other legal proceedings or claims will have, individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition, operating results, cash flows or liquidity. Facility Lease The Company's principal executive offices, as well as its research and development facility, are located in an office building in San Diego, California that the Company leases under a non-cancelable operating lease. The lease costs are expensed on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The term of the lease on this facility commenced in December 2005 and expires in December 2012. In February 2009, the lease was amended to allow the Company to defer the payment of 50% of the basic rent due for the months of February through September 2009. The Company repaid the deferred rent with interest at an annual rate of 6% in equal monthly installments between October 2009 and March 2010. In addition, in connection with the February 2009 amendment, the Company waived its right to exercise an early termination option. In September 2009, the lease was further amended to reduce the amount of office space subject to the lease by 1,722 square feet from 15,927 square feet to 14,205 square feet, which reduced the Company's basic rent proportionately starting in December 2009. In February 2012, the lease was further amended to increase the amount of office space subject to the lease by 9,807 square feet to 24,012 square feet, which increased the Company's basic monthly rent proportionately starting in April 2012 to approximately $36,000. Capital Lease In October 2011, the Company purchased equipment under a capital lease totaling $95,388. At March 31, 2012, assets held under capital leases had a net book value of $87,439, net of accumulated amortization of $7,949. The Company did not purchase equipment under capital leases during the six months ended March 31, 2011. |

| Revenue And Vendor Concentrations |
Revenue Concentration Revenue from customers that generated revenues in excess of 10% of the Company's total revenue was approximately $302,000 and $1,430,000 and totaled approximately 25% and 50% of total revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. For the six months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, the Company recorded revenue from customers that generated revenues in excess of 10% of the Company's total revenue of approximately $2,806,000 and $2,016,000 for a total of approximately 60% and 47% of total revenue, respectively. The corresponding accounts receivable balances were approximately $1,003,000 and $1,400,000 at March 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The Company's revenue is derived primarily from the sale by the Company to channel partners, including systems integrators and resellers, and end-users of licenses to sell products covered by the Company's patented technologies. These contractual arrangements do not obligate the Company's channel partners to order, purchase or distribute any fixed or minimum quantities of the Company's products. In most cases, the channel partners purchase the license from the Company after they receive an order from an end-user. The channel partners receive orders from various individual end-users; therefore, the sale of a license to a channel partner may represent sales to multiple end-users. End-users can purchase the Company's products through more than one channel partner. For the six months ended March 31, 2012, the Company recorded 21% of its revenues from a direct customer and 16%, 13% and 10% of its revenues from three different channel partners. For the six months ended March 31, 2011, the Company recorded 34% and 14% of its revenues from two different channel partners. Revenues can fluctuate based on the timing of license renewals by channel partners. When a channel partner purchases or renews a license, the Company receives a license fee in consideration for the grant of a license to sell the Company's products and there are no future payment obligations related to such agreement; therefore the license fee the Company receives with respect to a particular license renewal in one period does not have a correlation with revenue in future periods. During the last several quarters, sales of licenses to one or more channel partners have comprised a significant part of our revenue. This is attributable to the timing of renewals or purchases of licenses and does not represent a dependence on any single channel partner. The Company believes that it is not dependent upon any single channel partner, even those from which revenues were in excess of 10% of the Company's total revenue in a specific reporting period, and that the loss or termination of the Company's relationship with any such channel partner would not have a material adverse effect on the Company's future operations. International sales accounted for approximately 10% and 4% of the Company's total revenue for the three and six months ended March 31, 2012, respectively. During the three and six months ended March 31, 2011, international sales accounted for approximately 3% and 18%, respectively, of the Company's total revenue. The Company sells its products in U.S. currency only. Vendor Concentration The Company purchases its integrated software components from multiple third-party software providers at competitive prices. For the three and six months ended March 31, 2012, the Company did not make purchases from any one vendor comprising 10% or more of the Company's total purchases. For the three months ended March 31, 2011, the Company made purchases from one vendor that comprised approximately 11% of total purchases. The Company did not make purchases from any one vendor comprising 10% or more of the Company's total purchases for the six months ended March 31, 2011. The Company does not believe it is substantially dependent upon nor exposed to any significant concentration risk related to purchases from any single vendor, given the availability of alternative sources from which the Company may purchase necessary integrated software components. |
