| NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Nature of Operations Mitek Systems, Inc. is engaged in the development, sale and service of its proprietary software solutions related to mobile imaging solutions and intelligent character recognition software. The Company applies its patented technology in image capture, correction and intelligent data extraction in the mobile financial and business applications market. The Company’s technology for extracting data from any image taken using camera-equipped smartphones and tablets enables the development of consumer-friendly software products that use the camera as a simple mechanism to enter data and complete transactions. Users take a picture of the document and the Company’s products correct image distortion, extract relevant data, route images to their desired location and process transactions through users’ financial institutions. The Company’s Mobile Deposit® product is software that allows users to remotely deposit a check using their camera-equipped smartphone or tablet. As of March 31, 2013, 889 financial institutions have signed agreements to deploy Mobile Deposit ®, and 445 of these financial institutions have deployed Mobile Deposit ® to their customers. The Company’s list of Mobile Deposit ® customers includes 35 of the top 50 U.S. retail banks and payment processing companies, as ranked by SNL Financial for the fourth quarter of 2012. Other mobile imaging software solutions the Company offers include Mobile Photo Bill Pay™, a mobile bill payment product that allows users to pay their bills using their camera-equipped smartphone or tablet, Mobile Balance Transfer™, a product that allows credit card issuers to provide an offer to users and allows such users to transfer an existing credit card balance by capturing an image of the user’s current credit card statement, Mobile Enrollment ™, a product that enables users to enroll their checking account as a funding source for mobile payments by taking a photo of a blank check with their camera-equipped smartphone or tablet, and Mobile Photo Quoting™, a product that enables users to receive insurance quotes by using their camera-equipped smartphone or tablet to take a picture of their driver’s license and insurance card. The Company’s mobile imaging software solutions can be deployed on all major smartphone and tablet operating systems. The Company markets and sells its mobile imaging software solutions through channel partners or directly to enterprise customers and end-users that typically purchase licenses based on the number of transactions processed or the number of subscribers that use the Company’s mobile software. The Company’s mobile imaging software solutions are often embedded in other mobile banking or enterprise applications developed by banks, insurance companies or their partners, and marketed under their own proprietary brands. Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited financial statements of the Company as of March 31, 2013 have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 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 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, 2012, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on December 7, 2012 (the “Form 10-K”). Results for the three and six months ended March 31, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of results for any other interim period or for a full year. 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.
Net Income (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 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. For the three and six months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, the following potentially dilutive common shares were excluded from the earnings per share calculation, as they would have been antidilutive:
The computation of basic and diluted 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. Certain customers have agreements that provide for usage fees above fixed minimums. Fixed minimum transaction fees are recognized as revenue ratably over the term of the arrangement. Usage fees above fixed minimums are recognized as revenue when such amounts are reasonably estimable and billable. Revenue from professional services is recognized when such services are delivered. 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 $14,000 and $17,773 as of March 31, 2013 and September 30, 2012, respectively. Software Development Costs Research and development costs are charged to expense as incurred. However, the costs incurred for the development of software that will be sold, leased, or otherwise marketed are capitalized when technological feasibility has been established. Software development costs consist primarily of compensation of development personnel, related overhead incurred to develop new products and upgrade and enhance the Company’s current products and fees paid to outside consultants. Capitalization of software development costs ceases and amortization of capitalized software development costs commences when the products are available for general release. For the periods ended March 31, 2013 and September 30, 2012, no software development costs were capitalized because the time period and cost incurred between technological feasibility and general release for all software product releases was insignificant. Fair Value of Equity Instruments The fair value of equity instruments involves significant estimates based on underlying assumptions made by management. The fair value for purchase rights under the Company’s equity plans is measured at the grant date using a Black-Scholes valuation model, which involves estimates of stock volatility, expected life of the instruments and other assumptions and using the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the grant date for restricted stock units. The fair value of stock-based awards is recognized as an expense over the requisite term of the award. Deferred Income Taxes Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effect of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the tax basis of such assets and liabilities. The Company maintains a valuation allowance against the deferred tax assets due to uncertainty regarding the future realization of such assets, which is 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 Comprehensive loss consists of net loss and unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale securities. The following table summarizes the components of comprehensive loss:
Accumulated other comprehensive income on the balance sheet at March 31, 2013 includes a net unrealized gain on the Company’s available-for-sale securities of $1,920, compared to a net unrealized loss of $616 at September 30, 2012.

| INVESTMENTS |
2. INVESTMENTS The following table summarizes investments by type of security as of March 31, 2013:
The following table summarizes investments by type of security as of September 30, 2012:
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. The Company determines the appropriate designation of investments at the time of purchase and reevaluates such designation as of each balance sheet date. All of the Company’s investments are designated as available-for-sale debt securities. As of March 31, 2013 and September 30, 2012, the Company’s short-term investments have maturity dates of less than one year from the balance sheet date and the Company’s long-term investments have maturity dates of greater than one year from the balance sheet date. 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 monthly, and evaluates individual securities with fair value below amortized cost at the 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 security and whether it is more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the security before recovering its amortized cost basis. If management intends to sell an impaired debt security or it is more likely than not the Company will be required to sell the 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 related to a credit loss, or 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. No other-than-temporary impairment charges were recognized in the three and six months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012. Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures FASB ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements (“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 three levels of inputs, of which the first two are considered observable and the last unobservable, that may be used to measure fair value, which consists of the following:
Based on the fair value hierarchy, all of the Company’s investments are classified as Level 2, as represented in the following table:

| STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY |
4. STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY 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 months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 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, 2013, the Company had $7,826,302 of unrecognized compensation expense related to outstanding stock options and restricted stock units expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately 3.2 years. Stock Options The following table summarizes stock option activity under the Company’s stock option plans for the six months ended March 31, 2013:
The following table summarizes significant ranges of outstanding and exercisable options as of March 31, 2013:
The Company recognized $503,242 and $983,618, respectively, in stock-based compensation expense related to the outstanding stock options in the three and six months ended March 31, 2013. During the three and six months ended March 31, 2012, the Company recognized $513,333 and $938,169, respectively, in stock-based compensation related to outstanding stock options. As of March 31, 2013, the Company had $5,358,264 of unrecognized compensation expense related to outstanding stock options expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of approximately 3.0 years. 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, 2013 and 2012 was $3,769,654 and $13,064,815, respectively. As of March 31, 2013, there were 2,672,758 options outstanding with a weighted average remaining contractual term, weighted average exercise price and aggregate intrinsic value of 7.62 years, $4.03 and $5,087,198, respectively. 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. 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 the Company’s 1999 Stock Option Plan, 2000 Stock Option Plan, 2002 Stock Option Plan, 2006 Stock Option Plan and 2010 Stock Option Plan (collectively, the “Prior Plans”). There were no awards granted under the Prior Plans after the approval of the 2012 Plan by the Company’s stockholders on February 22, 2012. Stock options granted under the Prior Plans that were outstanding at such date remain in effect until such options are exercised or expire.
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. As of March 31, 2013, stock options to purchase 1,040,813 shares of the Company’s common stock and 205,004 restricted stock units were outstanding under the 2012 Plan, and 977,983 shares of the Company’s common stock were reserved for future grants. The following table summarizes the number of stock options outstanding under the Prior Plans as of March 31, 2013:
In May 2003, the President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company was granted an option to purchase up to 400,000 shares of the Company’s common stock in connection with his appointment as President and Chief Executive Officer. This grant was made without stockholder approval as an inducement award pursuant to Rule 5635(c)(4) of the NASDAQ Listing Rules. The Company filed a registration statement on Form S-8 with the Securities and Exchange Commission registering the shares subject to the grant on December 15, 2011. Restricted Stock Units The following table summarizes restricted stock unit activity under the Company’s equity plans during the six months ended March 31, 2013:
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 $200,357 and $376,515, respectively, in stock-based compensation expense related to the outstanding restricted stock units in the three and six months ended March 31, 2013.

| Income Taxes [Abstract] | |
| INCOME TAXES |
5. 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, 2013. 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 may limit the usefulness of the net operating loss carryforwards. Due to the 100% valuation allowance on the net deferred tax assets, the Company does not anticipate that future changes in the Company’s unrecognized tax benefits will impact its effective tax rate. 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, 2013 or September 30, 2012, and has not recognized interest and/or penalties in the statements of operations for the three and six months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012.

| COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES |
6. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES Legal Matters USAA 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 its patents and Mobile Deposit® product in an unspecified manner. USAA seeks damages and injunctive relief. USAA subsequently amended its pleadings to assert a claim for false advertising and reverse palming off under the Lanham Act, and to seek reimbursement under the parties’ license agreement. On April 12, 2012, the Company filed a lawsuit against USAA in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware, alleging that USAA infringes five of the Company’s patents relating to image capture on mobile devices, breached the parties’ license agreement by using the Company’s products beyond the scope of the agreed-upon license terms and 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 courts consolidated the foregoing cases in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Texas, and on November 19, 2012, the Company answered USAA’s various claims and counterclaims, moved to dismiss USAA’s Lanham Act cause of action and filed a counterclaim against USAA for violation of the Lanham Act. The Company believes that USAA’s claims are without merit and intends to vigorously defend against those claims and pursue its claims against USAA. The Company does not believe that the results of USAA’s claims will have a material adverse effect on its financial condition or results of operations. Top Image Systems Ltd. On September 26, 2012, the Company filed a lawsuit against Israeli-based Top Image Systems Ltd. and TIS America Inc. (collectively “TISA”) in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware, alleging that TISA infringes five of the Company’s patents relating to image capture on mobile devices. The Company is seeking damages against TISA and injunctive relief to prevent them from selling their mobile imaging products. On January 7, 2013, TISA answered the Company’s complaint by denying the allegations and raising several affirmative defenses. On January 11, 2013, the Company amended its complaint to add a sixth patent, which had recently been issued to Company and also relates to image capture on mobile devices. Other Legal Matters In addition to the foregoing, the Company is subject to various claims and legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of its business. While any legal proceeding has an element of uncertainty, management of the Company believes that the disposition of such matters, in the aggregate, will not have a material effect on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations. Facility Lease The Company’s principal executive offices, as well as its research and development facility, are located in approximately 24,012 square feet of office space in San Diego, California. On July 3, 2012, the Company entered into an amendment to the existing lease (the “Lease Amendment”), which decreases the rentable square footage to approximately 22,523 square feet. The Lease Amendment commenced on January 1, 2013 and extended the term of the existing lease through June 30, 2019. The annual base rent under the Lease Amendment is approximately $471,000 per year and is subject to annual increases of approximately 3% per year. In connection with the Lease Amendment, the Company issued a standby letter of credit to the landlord that allows for one or more draws of up to $210,000 over the term of the lease extension. The Company believes its existing properties are in good condition and are sufficient and suitable for the conduct of its business. |

| Revenue and Vendor Concentrations [Abstract] | |
| REVENUE AND VENDOR CONCENTRATIONS |
7. REVENUE AND VENDOR CONCENTRATIONS Revenue Concentration For the three months ended March 31, 2013, the Company derived revenue of approximately $1,299,000 from two customers, totaling 30% and 10% of the Company’s total revenue, compared to revenue of approximately $302,000 from two customers, totaling 15% and 11% of the Company’s total revenue in the three months ended March 31, 2012. For the six months ended March 31, 2013, the Company derived revenue of approximately $2,619,000 from two customers, totaling 25% and 15% of the Company’s total revenue, compared to revenue of approximately $2,806,000 from four customers, totaling 21%, 16%, 13% and 10% of the Company’s total revenue in the six months ended March 31, 2012. The corresponding accounts receivable balances of customers from which revenues were in excess of 10% of total revenue were approximately $190,000 and $1,003,000 at March 31, 2013 and 2012, 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. 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 because either we or another channel partner could sell our products to the end-user that purchased from the channel partner we lost. International sales accounted for approximately 2% of the Company’s total revenue for both the three and six months ended March 31, 2013, respectively. During the three and six months ended March 31, 2012, international sales accounted for approximately 10% and 4%, 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, 2013 and 2012, the Company did not make purchases from any one vendor comprising 10% or more of the Company’s total purchases. 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. |

| Nature of Operations |
Nature of Operations Mitek Systems, Inc. is engaged in the development, sale and service of its proprietary software solutions related to mobile imaging solutions and intelligent character recognition software. The Company applies its patented technology in image capture, correction and intelligent data extraction in the mobile financial and business applications market. The Company’s technology for extracting data from any image taken using camera-equipped smartphones and tablets enables the development of consumer-friendly software products that use the camera as a simple mechanism to enter data and complete transactions. Users take a picture of the document and the Company’s products correct image distortion, extract relevant data, route images to their desired location and process transactions through users’ financial institutions. The Company’s Mobile Deposit® product is software that allows users to remotely deposit a check using their camera-equipped smartphone or tablet. As of March 31, 2013, 889 financial institutions have signed agreements to deploy Mobile Deposit ®, and 445 of these financial institutions have deployed Mobile Deposit ® to their customers. The Company’s list of Mobile Deposit ® customers includes 35 of the top 50 U.S. retail banks and payment processing companies, as ranked by SNL Financial for the fourth quarter of 2012. Other mobile imaging software solutions the Company offers include Mobile Photo Bill Pay™, a mobile bill payment product that allows users to pay their bills using their camera-equipped smartphone or tablet, Mobile Balance Transfer™, a product that allows credit card issuers to provide an offer to users and allows such users to transfer an existing credit card balance by capturing an image of the user’s current credit card statement, Mobile Enrollment ™, a product that enables users to enroll their checking account as a funding source for mobile payments by taking a photo of a blank check with their camera-equipped smartphone or tablet, and Mobile Photo Quoting™, a product that enables users to receive insurance quotes by using their camera-equipped smartphone or tablet to take a picture of their driver’s license and insurance card. The Company’s mobile imaging software solutions can be deployed on all major smartphone and tablet operating systems. The Company markets and sells its mobile imaging software solutions through channel partners or directly to enterprise customers and end-users that typically purchase licenses based on the number of transactions processed or the number of subscribers that use the Company’s mobile software. The Company’s mobile imaging software solutions are often embedded in other mobile banking or enterprise applications developed by banks, insurance companies or their partners, and marketed under their own proprietary brands. |

| Basis of Presentation |
Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited financial statements of the Company as of March 31, 2013 have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 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 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, 2012, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on December 7, 2012 (the “Form 10-K”). Results for the three and six months ended March 31, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of results for any other interim period or for a full year. |

| Use of Estimates |
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. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Net Income (Loss) Per Share |
Net Income (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 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. For the three and six months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, the following potentially dilutive common shares were excluded from the earnings per share calculation, as they would have been antidilutive:
The computation of basic and diluted loss per share is as follows:
|
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Revenue Recognition |
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. Certain customers have agreements that provide for usage fees above fixed minimums. Fixed minimum transaction fees are recognized as revenue ratably over the term of the arrangement. Usage fees above fixed minimums are recognized as revenue when such amounts are reasonably estimable and billable. Revenue from professional services is recognized when such services are delivered. 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 |
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 $14,000 and $17,773 as of March 31, 2013 and September 30, 2012, respectively. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Software Development Costs |
Software Development Costs Research and development costs are charged to expense as incurred. However, the costs incurred for the development of software that will be sold, leased, or otherwise marketed are capitalized when technological feasibility has been established. Software development costs consist primarily of compensation of development personnel, related overhead incurred to develop new products and upgrade and enhance the Company’s current products and fees paid to outside consultants. Capitalization of software development costs ceases and amortization of capitalized software development costs commences when the products are available for general release. For the periods ended March 31, 2013 and September 30, 2012, no software development costs were capitalized because the time period and cost incurred between technological feasibility and general release for all software product releases was insignificant. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Fair Value of Equity Instruments |
Fair Value of Equity Instruments The fair value of equity instruments involves significant estimates based on underlying assumptions made by management. The fair value for purchase rights under the Company’s equity plans is measured at the grant date using a Black-Scholes valuation model, which involves estimates of stock volatility, expected life of the instruments and other assumptions and using the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the grant date for restricted stock units. The fair value of stock-based awards is recognized as an expense over the requisite term of the award. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Deferred Income Taxes |
Deferred Income Taxes Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effect of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the tax basis of such assets and liabilities. The Company maintains a valuation allowance against the deferred tax assets due to uncertainty regarding the future realization of such assets, which is 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 |
Comprehensive Loss Comprehensive loss consists of net loss and unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale securities. The following table summarizes the components of comprehensive loss:
Accumulated other comprehensive income on the balance sheet at March 31, 2013 includes a net unrealized gain on the Company’s available-for-sale securities of $1,920, compared to a net unrealized loss of $616 at September 30, 2012. |
