Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements (Unaudited) (In Thousands, Except Per Share Data)

1.	General

	In the opinion of management, the accompanying consolidated condensed financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly IntriCon Corporation’s (“IntriCon” or the “Company”) consolidated financial position as of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, and the consolidated results of its operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010. Results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results of the operations expected for the full year or any other interim period.

	The Company has evaluated subsequent events occurring after the date of the consolidated financial statements for events requiring recording or disclosure in the financial statements. On October 31, 2011 the Company’s subsidiary executed a lease amendment for its Arden Hills, MN location to extend the term of the lease for two years. The total annual base rent expense, real estate taxes and other charges under the newly executed lease amendment are expected to be approximately $481.

2.	New Accounting Pronouncements

	In May 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued new guidance concerning fair value measurements and disclosure. The new guidance is the result of joint efforts by the FASB and the International Accounting Standards Board to develop a single, converged fair value framework on how to measure fair value and the necessary disclosures concerning fair value measurements. The guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011 and no early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating this new guidance and its materiality to the consolidated financial statements.

	In June 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2011-05, “Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Presentation of Comprehensive Income.” This ASU increases the prominence of other comprehensive income (“OCI”) in the financial statements and provides companies two options for presenting OCI, which until now has typically been placed within the statement of equity. One option allows an OCI statement to be included with the statement of operations, and together the two will make a statement of total comprehensive income. Alternately, companies may present an OCI statement separate from the statement of operations; however, the two statements will have to appear consecutively within a financial report. This ASU does not affect the types of items that are reported in OCI, nor does it affect the calculation or presentation of earnings per share. For public companies, this ASU is effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2011. The Company will adopt the OCI presentation requirements required by ASU No. 2011-05 beginning with its first quarter in 2012 and does not anticipate that the adoption will have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

	In September 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-08: “Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Goodwill for Impairment.” This ASU permits an entity to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform the two-step goodwill impairment test. The more-likely-than-not threshold is defined as having a likelihood of more than 50 percent. Under this ASU, an entity is not required to calculate the fair value of a reporting unit unless the entity determines that it is more likely than not that its fair value is less than its carrying amount. ASU 2011-08 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. We do not expect that ASU 2011-08 will have any material impact on our financial position and results of operations because it is a change in application of the goodwill impairment test only.

3.	Discontinued Operations

	In December 2009, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized management to exit the non-core electronics products segment operated by its wholly-owned subsidiary, RTI Electronics, Inc. and divest the assets used in the business. The decision to exit the electronics products segment was made to allow the Company to focus on its core body-worn device segment. In connection with its decision to divest the electronics business, the Company evaluated assets for impairment and costs of terminating employees and recorded the following: (i) an impairment charge of $685 relating to goodwill, (ii) a reduction to realizable value of $720 to tangible assets, and (iii) $275 in employee termination costs for the year ended December 31, 2009. Additional costs related to employee terminations of approximately $200 were recorded during the first half of 2010.

	On May 28, 2010 the Company completed the sale of substantially all of the assets of its electronics business to an affiliate of Shackleton Equity Partners (“Shackleton”), pursuant to an Asset Purchase Agreement dated May 28, 2010. Shackleton paid $850 cash at closing for the assets and assumed certain operating liabilities of IntriCon’s electronics business, subject to an accounts receivable adjustment.

5.	Geographic Information

	The geographical distribution of long-lived assets to geographical areas consisted of the following at:

	September 30, 2011		December 31, 2010
United States	$	5,141	$	5,027
Other – primarily Singapore		1,667		1,789

Consolidated	$	6,808	$	6,816

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

	Domestic Credit Facilities
	To finance a portion of the Company’s acquisition of Jon Barron, Inc. doing business as Datrix (“Datrix”) and replace the Company’s existing credit facilities with Bank of America, including capital leases, the Company and its domestic subsidiaries entered into a credit facility with The PrivateBank and Trust Company on August 13, 2009. The credit facility, as amended, provides for:
	■	an $8,000 revolving credit facility, with a $200 subfacility for letters of credit. Under the revolving credit facility, the availability of funds depends on a borrowing base composed of stated percentages of the Company’s eligible trade receivables and eligible inventory, and eligible equipment less a reserve; and
	■	a term loan in the original amount of $4,000.
	In August 2011, the Company amended the credit facility with The PrivateBank. Per the terms of the amended agreement, the maturity of both the term loan and the revolving credit facility was extended to expire on August 13, 2014. Further, the term loan was increased from its then current balance of $2,225 to $4,000. In addition, the amendment reset certain financial covenants. The Company was in compliance with all applicable covenants under the credit facility, as amended, as of September 30, 2011.
	Loans under the credit facility are secured by a security interest in substantially all of the assets of the Company and its domestic subsidiaries including a pledge of the stock of its domestic subsidiaries. Loans under the credit facility bear interest at varying rates based on the Company’s leverage ratio of funded debt / EBITDA, at the option of the Company, at:
	■	the London InterBank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) plus 3.00% - 4.00%, or
	■	the base rate, which is the higher of (a) the rate publicly announced from time to time by the lender as its “prime rate” and (b) the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.5%, plus 0.25% - 1.25% depending on the Company’s leverage ratio.
	Weighted average interest on the domestic asset-based revolving credit facility was 3.59% for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 4.41% for the year ended December 31, 2010. The outstanding balance of the revolving credit facility was $3,584 and $3,920 at September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. The total remaining availability on the domestic revolving credit facility was approximately $3,114 and $2,072 at September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. The credit facility expires on August 13, 2014 and all outstanding borrowings will become due and payable.
	The outstanding principal balance of the term loan, as amended, is payable in quarterly installments of $250, commencing with the calendar quarter ended September 30, 2011. Any remaining principal and accrued interest is payable on August 13, 2014. IntriCon is also required to use 100% of the net cash proceeds of certain asset sales (excluding inventory and certain other dispositions), sale of capital securities or issuance of debt to pay down the term loan.
	Foreign Credit Facility
	In addition to its domestic credit facilities, the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, IntriCon, PTE LTD., entered into an international senior secured credit agreement with Oversea-Chinese Banking Corporation Ltd. that provides for a $1,977 line of credit. The international credit agreement was modified in August 2010 and again in August 2011 to allow for an additional total of $736 in borrowing under the existing base to fund the Singapore facility relocation, Batam facility construction and various other capital needs. Borrowings bear interest at a rate of .75% to 2.5% over the lender’s prevailing prime lending rate. Weighted average interest on the international credit facilities was 4.24% for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 4.14% for the year ended December 31, 2010. The outstanding balance was $1,687 and $1,377 at September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. The total remaining availability on the international senior secured credit agreement was approximately $1,026 and $600 at September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively.
	Datrix Promissory Note
	A portion of the purchase price of the Datrix acquisition was paid by the issuance of a promissory note to the seller in the amount of $1,050 bearing annual interest at 6%. The remaining principal amount of the promissory note is payable in one installment of $350 on August 13, 2012. The note bears annual interest at 6% and is payable with each installment of principal as set forth above. The Company made the first two installment payments, including interest, of $413 and $395 on August 13, 2010 and August 13, 2011, respectively.
8.	Income Taxes
	Income tax benefit for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 was $60 and $90, respectively, compared to expense of $31 and $106 for the respective periods in 2010. The benefit for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 was primarily due to Federal Alternative Minimum Tax refunds, partially offset by foreign operating loss. The expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010 was primarily due to foreign operating income and state tax estimated payments. The Company has net operating loss carryforwards for U.S. federal income tax purposes and, consequently, minimal federal benefit or expense from the domestic operations was recognized as the deferred tax asset has a full valuation allowance.

9.	Shareholders’ Equity and Stock-based Compensation
	The Company has a 2001 stock option plan, a non-employee directors’ stock option plan and a 2006 equity incentive plan. New grants may not be made under the 2001 and the non-employee directors’ stock option plans; however certain option grants under these plans remain exercisable as of September 30, 2011. The aggregate number of shares of common stock for which awards could be granted under the 2006 Equity Incentive Plan as of the date of adoption was 699 shares. Additionally, as outstanding options under the 2001 stock option plan and non-employee directors’ stock option plan expire, the shares of the Company’s common stock subject to the expired options will become available for issuance under the 2006 Equity Incentive Plan. On April 21, 2010, the Company’s shareholders approved an amendment to the 2006 Equity Incentive Plan to increase (i) the authorized number of shares of the Company’s common stock reserved and issuable under the plan by an additional 250 shares and (ii) the maximum number of incentive stock options that may be granted under the plan to be the same as the maximum number of shares that may be granted under the plan.
	Under the various plans, executives, employees and outside directors receive awards of options to purchase common stock. Under the 2006 Equity Incentive Plan, the Company may also grant stock awards, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock units and other equity-based awards, although no such awards, other than awards under the programs discussed in the next two paragraphs, had been granted as of September 30, 2011. Under all awards, the terms are fixed on the grant date. Generally, the exercise price equals the market price of the Company’s stock on the date of the grant. Options under the plans generally vest over three years, and have a maximum term of 10 years.
	Additionally, the board has established the non-employee directors’ stock fee election program, referred to as the director program, as an award under the 2006 equity incentive plan. The director program gives each non-employee director the right under the 2006 equity incentive plan to elect to have some or all of his quarterly director fees paid in common shares rather than cash. There were 1 and 2 shares issued in lieu of cash for director fees under the director program for each of the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.
	On July 23, 2008, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors approved the non-employee director and executive officer stock purchase program, referred to as the management purchase program, as an award under the 2006 Plan. The purpose of the management purchase program is to permit the Company’s non-employee directors and executive officers to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock directly from the Company. Pursuant to the management purchase program, as amended, participants may elect to purchase shares of common stock from the Company not exceeding an aggregate of $100 during any fiscal year. Participants may make such election one time during each twenty business day period following the public release of the Company’s earnings announcement, referred to as a window period, and only if such participant is not in possession of material, non-public information concerning the Company, subject to the discretion of the Board to prohibit any transactions in common stock by directors and executive officers during a window period. There were no shares purchased under the management purchase program during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 or 2010.

Stock option activity as of and during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 was as follows:

	Number of Shares			Weighted-average Exercise Price		Aggregate Intrinsic Value

Outstanding at December 31, 2010		1,072		$	5.60
Options forfeited or cancelled		(80	)		3.26
Options granted		177			4.43
Options exercised		(46	)		2.42

Outstanding at September 30, 2011		1,123		$	5.90	$	167

Exercisable at September 30, 2011		848		$	6.19	$	167

Available for future grant at December 31, 2010		323

Available for future grant at September 30, 2011		224

	The number of shares available for future grant at September 30, 2011 does not include a total of up to 322 shares subject to options outstanding under the 2001 stock option plan and non-employee directors’ stock option plan as of September 30, 2011, which will become available for grant under the 2006 Equity Incentive Plan in the event of the expiration of such options.
	The fair value of each stock option granted is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The Black-Scholes option-pricing model was developed for use in estimating the fair value of traded options that have no vesting restrictions and are fully transferable. In addition, option-pricing models require the input of subjective assumptions, including the expected stock price volatility. Because the Company’s options have characteristics different from those of traded options, in the opinion of management, the existing models do not necessarily provide a reliable single measure of the fair value of its options. The weighted average fair value of options granted was $2.57, for options granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2011. The weighted average fair value of options granted was $1.86 for options granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2010.
	The Company calculates expected volatility for stock options and awards using the Company’s historical volatility.
	The Company currently estimates a nine percent forfeiture rate for stock options, but will continue to review this estimate in future periods.
	The risk-free rates for the expected terms of the stock options and awards and the Purchase Plan (as described below) is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant.
	The weighted average remaining contractual life of options exercisable at September 30, 2011 was 5.06 years.
	The Company recorded $68 and $150 of non-cash stock option expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, respectively. The Company recorded $123 and $362 of non-cash stock option expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010, respectively. As of September 30, 2011, there was $446 of total unrecognized compensation costs related to non-vested awards that are expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.3 years.
	The Company also has an Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “Purchase Plan”). The Purchase Plan initially provided that a maximum of 100 shares may be sold under the Purchase Plan as of the date of adoption. On April 27, 2011, the Company’s shareholders approved an amendment to the Purchase Plan to increase the number of shares which may be purchased under the plan by an additional 100 shares. There were 6 and 14 shares purchased under the plan for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, respectively, and a total of 4 and 11 shares purchased for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010, respectively.

Diluted earnings (loss) per share:	$	(0.09	)	$	0.04	$	(0.19	)	$	0.10

	The dilutive impact summarized above relates to the periods when the average market price of Company stock exceeded the exercise price of the potentially dilutive option securities granted. Earnings per common share was based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the periods when computing the basic earnings per share. When dilutive, stock options are included as equivalents using the treasury stock market method when computing the diluted earnings per share.
	Excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 were outstanding options to purchase approximately 1,123 common shares, with an average exercise price of $5.90, because the effect would have been anti-dilutive due to the Company’s net loss in the period. Excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010 were options out of the money with rights to purchase approximately 488 and 575 common shares, respectively, with weighted average exercise prices of $8.60 and $8.01, respectively, because the effect would have been anti-dilutive.

12.	Legal Proceedings
	The Company is a defendant along with a number of other parties in lawsuits alleging that plaintiffs have or may have contracted asbestos-related diseases as a result of exposure to asbestos products or equipment containing asbestos sold by one or more named defendants. Due to the noninformative nature of the complaints, the Company does not know whether any of the complaints state valid claims against us. Certain insurance carriers have informed us that the primary policies for the period August 1, 1970-1973, have been exhausted and that the carriers will no longer provide a defense under those policies. We have requested that the carriers substantiate this situation. The Company believes it has additional policies available for other years which have been ignored by the carriers. Because settlement payments are applied to all years a litigant was deemed to have been exposed to asbestos, the Company believes when settlement payments are applied to these additional policies, it will have availability under the years deemed exhausted. The Company does not believe that the asserted exhaustion of the primary insurance coverage for this period will have a material adverse effect on the financial condition, liquidity, or results of operations. Management believes that the number of insurance carriers involved in the defense of the suits and the significant number of policy years and policy limits, to which these insurance carriers are insuring us, make the ultimate disposition of these lawsuits not material to our consolidated financial position or results of operations.
	The Company’s wholly owned French subsidiary, Selas SAS, filed for insolvency in France and is being managed by a court appointed judiciary administrator. The Company may be subject to additional litigation or liabilities as a result of the French insolvency proceeding.
	The Company is also involved in other lawsuits arising in the normal course of business. While it is not possible to predict with certainty the outcome of these matters, management is of the opinion that the disposition of these lawsuits and claims will not materially affect our consolidated financial position, liquidity or results of operations.
13.	Related-Party Transactions
	One of the Company’s subsidiaries leases office and factory space from a partnership consisting of three present or former officers of the subsidiary, including Mark Gorder, a member of the Company’s Board of Directors and the President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company. The subsidiary is required to pay all real estate taxes and operating expenses. In the opinion of management, the terms of the lease agreement are comparable to those which could be obtained from unaffiliated third parties. The total base rent expense, real estate taxes and other charges incurred under the lease were approximately $122 and $367 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. On October 31, 2011 the subsidiary executed a lease amendment with the partnership to extend the term of the lease for two years. The total annual base rent expense, real estate taxes and other charges under the newly executed lease amendment are expected to be approximately $481.
	The Company uses the law firm of Blank Rome LLP for legal services. A partner of that firm is the son-in-law of the Chairman of the Company’s Board of Directors. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, the Company paid that firm approximately $30 and $134, respectively, for legal services and costs. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010, the Company paid that firm approximately $127 and $219, respectively, for legal services and costs. The Chairman of our Board of Directors is considered independent under applicable Nasdaq and Securities Exchange Commission rules because (i) no payments were made to the Chairman or the partner directly in exchange for the services provided by the law firm and (ii) the amounts paid to the law firm did not exceed the thresholds contained in the Nasdaq standards. Furthermore, the aforementioned partner does not provide any legal services to the Company and is not involved in billing matters.

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

Business Overview

Headquartered in Arden Hills, Minnesota, IntriCon Corporation (together with its subsidiaries referred to as the “Company”, “IntriCon,” “we”, “us” or “our”) is an international firm engaged in designing, developing, manufacturing and distributing miniature and micro-miniature body-worn devices.

In addition to its operations in Minnesota, the Company has facilities in Maine, California, Singapore, Indonesia and Germany.

In October 2011, the Company announced it entered into a manufacturing agreement to become a supplier of hearing aids to hi HealthInnovations, a UnitedHealth Group company. hi HealthInnovations launched a suite of high-tech, lower-cost hearing devices for the estimated 36 million Americans with hearing loss. An estimated 75 percent of people who can benefit from hearing devices do not use them, largely due to the high cost. hi HealthInnovations will offer consumers technically advanced hearing aids, including those based on IntriCon’s new APT™ Open in-the-canal (ITC) hearing aid platform.

During the second quarter of 2011, IntriCon established a subsidiary in Indonesia. During the third quarter of 2011, the Company signed a lease agreement for a manufacturing facility in Batam, Indonesia. The purpose of the expansion is to increase the Company’s low cost manufacturing presence in Asia. The Company intends to transfer labor intensive hearing health and professional audio communications assembly to the facility. The Company commenced manufacturing at the facility in October 2011.

Currently, the Company operates in one operating segment, the body-worn device segment. In 2009, the Company decided to exit its non-core electronic products segment, to allow for greater focus on its body-worn device segment. On May 28, 2010, the Company completed the sale of substantially all of the assets of its electronics business to an affiliate of Shackleton Equity Partners (“Shackleton”). For all periods presented, the Company classified its former electronics products segment as discontinued operations. Unless otherwise indicated, the following description of our business refers only to our continuing operations.

Information contained in this section of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and expressed in U.S. dollars is presented in thousands (000s), except for per share data and as otherwise noted.

Core Technologies Overview

IntriCon serves the body-worn device market by designing, developing, manufacturing and distributing micro-miniature products, microelectronics, micro-mechanical assemblies and complete assemblies, primarily for bio-telemetry devices, medical equipment, hearing instruments, professional audio and telecommunications devices. Over the past five years, the Company has increased investments in the continued development of four critical core technologies: Ultra-Low-Power Digital Signal Processing, Ultra-Low-Power Wireless, Microminiaturization, and Miniature Transducers. These four core technologies serve as the foundation of current and future product platform development, designed to meet the rising demand for smaller, portable more advanced devices. The continued advancements in this area have allowed the Company to further enhance the mobility and effectiveness of miniature body-worn devices.

Ultra-Low-Power Digital Signal Processing

Digital signal processing, or DSP, converts real-world analog signals into a digital format. Through its nanoDSP™ technology, IntriCon offers an extensive range of ultra-low-power (ULP) DSP amplifiers for hearing, medical and professional audio applications. Our proprietary nanoDSP incorporates advanced ultra-miniature hardware with sophisticated signal processing algorithms to produce devices that are smaller and more effective.

The Company has recently made improvements on its Reliant CLEAR™ feedback canceller, offering increased added stable gain and faster reaction time. The Company also introduced its patent pending AcousTAP™ Switch, allowing the user to change programs when the ear is patted, which eliminates the physical push button, saving size and cost.

Ultra-Low-Power Wireless

Wireless connectivity is fast becoming a required technology, and wireless capabilities are especially critical in new body-worn devices. IntriCon’s BodyNet™ ULP technology, including the nanoLink™ and PhysioLink™ wireless systems, offers solutions for measuring and transmitting the body’s activities to caregivers, and wireless audio links for professional communications and surveillance products. Potential BodyNet applications include electrocardiogram (ECG) diagnostics and monitoring, diabetes monitoring, sleep apnea studies and audio streaming for hearing aids.

Table of Contents

IntriCon is in the final stages of commercializing its PhysioLink wireless technology, which will be incorporated into product platforms serving the medical, hearing health and professional audio communication markets. This system is based on 2.4GHz proprietary digital radio protocol in the industrial-scientific-medical (ISM) frequency band and enables audio and data streaming to ear-worn and body-worn applications over distances of up to five meters.

Microminiaturization

At IntriCon, we are experts in miniaturization and in our world, smaller is better. We began honing our microminiaturization skills over 30 years ago, supplying components to the hearing health industry. Our core miniaturization technology allows us to make devices for our markets that are one cubic inch and smaller. We also are specialists in devices that run on very low power, as evidenced by our ULP wireless and DSP. Less power means a smaller battery, which enables us to reduce size even further, and develop devices that fit into the palm of one’s hand.

Miniature Transducers

IntriCon’s advanced microphone and receiver technology has been pushing the limits of size and performance for over a decade. In 2007, we increased our product portfolio and expertise in miniature transducers through the acquisition of Tibbett’s Industries, Inc. Our miniature transducers, which have been incorporated into various product platforms, enhance the reliability, sensitivity, supply voltage, and output level in body-worn devices. These enhancements allow us to make devices that are extremely portable and perform well in noisy or hazardous environments. We recently introduced our 151Hi SPL microphone which provides the latest advances in microphone technology. These small devices are well-suited for applications in the aviation, fire, law enforcement, safety and military markets. Our technology also is used for technical surveillance by law enforcement and security agencies, and by performers and production staff in the music and stage performance markets. Also included in our transducer line are medical coils and micro coils used in pacemaker programming and interventional catheter positioning applications.

Market Overview

Our core technologies expertise is focused on three main markets: medical, hearing health and professional audio communications.

Medical

In the medical market, the Company is focused on sales of multiple biotelemetry devices from life-critical diagnostic monitoring devices to drug-delivery systems. Using our nanoDSP and ULP nanoLink technology, the Company manufactures microelectronics, micro-mechanical assemblies, high-precision injection-molded plastic components and complete biotelemetry devices for emerging and leading medical device manufacturers. Targeted customers include medical product manufacturers of portable and lightweight battery powered devices.

The medical industry is faced with pressures to reduce the cost of healthcare. IntriCon currently serves this market by offering medical manufacturers the capabilities to design, develop and manufacture components for medical devices that are easier to use, are more miniature, use less power, and are lighter. These devices measure with greater accuracy and provide more functions while reducing the costs to manufacture these devices. The industry-wide trend toward further miniaturization and ambulatory operation enabled by wireless connectivity is commonly referred to as bio-telemetry. Through the further development of our ULP BodyNet family, we believe the bio-telemetry offers a significant future opportunity. Increasingly, the medical industry is looking for wireless, low-power capabilities in their devices. We believe our strategic partnership with Advanced Medical Electronics Corp. (AME) will allow us to develop new bio-telemetry devices that better connect patients and care givers, providing critical information and feedback. Current examples of IntriCon bio-telemetry products used by medical device manufacturers include wireless continuous glucose monitors that measure glucose levels and provide real-time blood glucose trend information and cardiac diagnostic monitoring (CDM) devices.

During the second quarter of 2011, IntriCon submitted the Centauri, its first generation CDM device, for 510(k) approval with the FDA. The Company received FDA approval in August of 2011, with the product available for sale in late 2011. The features of the Centauri ECG monitor are event recording combined with wireless transmission of the patient data to a remote service center, which then forwards the information to the doctor.

The Sirona, a CDM device which incorporates PhysioLink technology, was submitted for 510(k) approval in the third quarter of 2011. The Sirona ECG platform is three products in one design. It can be an event recorder, holter monitor, or wireless event recorder. This platform is very small, rechargeable, and water spray proof.

In addition, IntriCon manufactures and supplies bubble sensors and flow restrictors that monitor and control the flow of fluid in an intravenous infusion system. IntriCon also manufactures a family of safety needle products for an original equipment manufacturing (OEM) customer that utilizes IntriCon’s insert and straight molding capabilities. These products are assembled using full automation, including built-in quality checks within the production lines.

Hearing Health

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

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

Based on our investments in core technologies, specifically nanoDSP and our new wireless PhysioLink technologies, IntriCon is building a new generation of affordable, high-quality hearing aids and similar amplifier devices under contracts for OEM’s. DSP devices have better clarity, attractive pricing points and an improved ability to filter out background noise. During 2010 we introduced the Overtus™ DSP amplifier. The Overtus DSP amplifier is designed to optimize open in the canal (ITC) type fittings. The amplifier algorithm contains two patented features, an advanced adaptive feedback canceller, Reliant CLEAR, optimized for open ITC fittings and an acoustic switch, AcousTAP, eliminating the need for a mechanical switch and allowing for further miniaturization. Further, with the Overtus technology, we have developed our own complete hearing device, the all-new, patent-pending APT™ Open ITC. The APT is powered by the Overtus which includes our Reliant CLEAR adaptive feedback canceller and the AcousTAP acoustic push button. In addition the APT utilizes the patent pending Concha Lock System technology that allows for the suspension of an open in-the-ear device in the ear canal. These features create stable and effective amplification, occlusion-free comfort and easy integration into existing fitting systems. Our OEM customers now have the option of using Overtus in their own devices, or purchasing our complete APT device. We believe the introductions of the APT and Lumen devices and Overtus amplifier will solidify our position as a leader of high-performance adaptive DSP hearing instrument amplifiers. Furthermore, we believe our strategic alliance with Dynamic Hearing will allow us to develop new body-worn applications and further expand both our hearing health and professional audio product portfolio.

In October 2011, the Company announced it has entered into a manufacturing agreement to become a manufacturer of hearing aids to hi HealthInnovations, a UnitedHealth Group company. hi HealthInnovations launched a suite of high-tech, lower-cost hearing devices for the estimated 36 million Americans with hearing loss. An estimated 75 percent of people who can benefit from hearing devices do not use them, largely due to the high cost. hi HealthInnovations will offer consumers technically advanced hearing aids, including those based on the APT hearing aid platform. The Company expects to realize meaningful revenue from this program beginning in the 2012 first quarter.

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

Professional Audio Communications

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

During 2012, we will be marketing our line of situational listening devices (SLD’s) intended to help people hear in noisy environments like restaurants and automobiles, and listen to television, music, and direct broadcast by wireless connection. Such devices are intended to be supplements to conventional hearing aids, which do not handle those situations well. The SLD’s will be based on our ULP wireless nanoLink technology and our PhysioLink technology, which were recently demonstrated at the annual convention of the American Academy of Audiology. The product line consists of an earpiece, TV transmitter, companion microphone, iPod/iPhone transmitter, and USB transmitter.

Results of Operations

Sales, net

Our net sales are comprised of three main markets: medical, hearing health, and professional audio communications. Below is a summary of our sales by main markets for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010:

					Change
Three months ended September 30	2011		2010		Dollars			Percent
Medical	$	5,833	$	6,400	$	(567	)		(8.9%	)
Hearing Health		4,900		4,903		(3	)		(0.0%	)
Professional Audio Communications		3,140		3,424		(284	)		(8.3%	)
Consolidated Net Sales	$	13,873	$	14,727	$	(854	)		(5.8%	)

Nine months ended September 30
Medical	$	17,016	$	19,426	$	(2,410	)		(12.4%	)
Hearing Health		15,613		15,192		421			2.8%
Professional Audio Communications		8,955		9,597		(642	)		(6.7%	)
Total Consolidated Net Sales	$	41,584	$	44,215	$	(2,631	)		(5.9%	)

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, we experienced decreases of 9 percent and 12 percent, respectively, in net sales in the medical equipment market compared to the same periods in 2010 as a direct result of regulatory lead times and anticipated temporary fluctuations in demand. While we are seeing customers continue to reengage in new programs, persisting economic softness and regulatory delays has caused many patients to defer discretionary medical procedures, and hospitals and doctors to cut back on purchases of legacy med-tech products. As a result, during the course of 2011, a few large medical customers experienced temporary fluctuations in demand and are working through inventory levels. The Company believes this lull is temporary and that order patterns will normalize in early 2012.

Management believes there is an industry-wide trend toward further miniaturization and ambulatory operation enabled by wireless connectivity, referred to as bio-telemetry, which in the past resulted in further growth in our medical business. Additionally, we are actively involved with Medtronic for future development of next-generation wireless glucose monitors. We are also working with our strategic partner, AME, on proprietary biotelemetry technologies that will enable us to develop new devices that connect patients and care givers, providing critical information and feedback.

Net sales in our hearing health business for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 remained flat and increased 3 percent, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2010 driven by growth in our DSP circuits, partially offset by temporary declines in legacy products. We believe long term prospects in our hearing health business remain strong as we continue to develop and launch advanced technologies, such as our nanoDSP, Overtus, APT and Lumen products, which will enhance the performance of hearing devices. In addition, we believe that the hi HealthInnovations agreement holds tremendous potential. Further, we believe the market indicators in the hearing health industry, including the aging world population, suggest long-term industry growth.

Net sales to the professional audio device sector decreased 8 percent and 7 percent, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 compared to the same periods in 2010. We believe that the primary driver of the decrease was due to the possible U.S. government shutdown and budgetary approval process which delayed our contract product launches with certain government organizations. We believe our extensive portfolio of communication devices that are portable, smaller and perform well in noisy or hazardous environments will provide for future long-term growth in this market.

Gross profit

Gross profit, both in dollars and as a percent of sales, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, was as follows:

	2011					2010					Change
Three months ended September 30	Dollars		Percent of Sales			Dollars		Percent of Sales			Dollars			Percent
Gross profit	$	3,084		22.2	%	$	3,815		25.9	%	$	(731	)		(19.2	%)

Nine months ended September 30
Gross profit	$	9,323		22.4	%	$	11,522		26.1	%	$	(2,199	)		(19.1	%)

Table of Contents

In 2011, gross profit decreased primarily due to lower sales volumes, costs related to establishing the Company’s Indonesian facility and ramp up associated with the hi HealthInnovations agreement. The decrease in gross profits was partially offset by the impact of various profit enhancement programs. We have various activities underway to increase our gross profit, such as transferring our microphone and receiver production from our Maine facility to our lower cost Singapore facility, increasing the percentage of IntriCon proprietary content in the devices we manufacture and working to introduce Six Sigma lean manufacturing methods into key medical device product lines.

In an effort to drive for further gross profit improvements, the Company evaluated low cost manufacturing options in Asia. In July 2011, the Company signed a five year lease agreement for a manufacturing facility in Batam, Indonesia. The Company commenced manufacturing at the facility in October 2011.

Sales and Marketing, General and Administrative and Research and Development Expenses

Sales and marketing, general and administrative and research and development expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 were:

	2011					2010					Change
Three months ended September 30	Dollars		Percent of Sales			Dollars		Percent of Sales			Dollars			Percent
Sales and marketing	$	734		5.3	%	$	751		5.1	%	$	(17	)		(2.3	%)
General and administrative		1,486		10.7	%		1,398		9.5	%		88			6.3	%
Research and development		1,326		9.6	%		1,231		8.4	%		95			7.7	%

Nine months ended September 30
Sales and marketing	$	2,422		5.8	%	$	2,373		5.4	%	$	49			2.1	%
General and administrative		4,382		10.5	%		4,335		9.8	%		47			1.1	%
Research and development		3,600		8.7	%		3,455		7.8	%		145			4.2	%

Sales and marketing were relatively flat as compared to the prior year periods. General and administrative expenses and research and development increased over the prior year periods primarily due to the ramp-up of the new Indonesia manufacturing facility and research and development to support product offerings under the hi HealthInnovations’ manufacturing agreement.

Interest expense

Net interest expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 was $144 and $431, respectively, compared to $158 and $500 for the respective periods in 2010. The decrease in interest expense was primarily due to lower average debt balances and interest rates as compared to the prior year.

Equity in income (loss) of partnerships

The equity in income (loss) of partnerships for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 was ($12) and $317, respectively, compared to $54 and $42 for the respective periods in 2010, due to changes in carrying amounts described below.

The Company recorded decreases of $37 and $31 in the carrying amount of the HIMPP investment, reflecting amortization of the patents, other intangibles and the Company’s portion of the partnership’s operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, respectively, compared to decreases of $37 and $154 in the same respective periods in 2010.

The Company recorded increases of $25 and $348 in the carrying amount of IntriCon’s investment in a joint venture, reflecting the Company’s portion of the joint venture’s operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, respectively. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010, the Company recorded increases of $91 and $196, respectively.

Other income (expense)

Other income (expense) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, was $69 and $32, respectively, compared to ($57) and $29 for the same periods in 2010. The change in other income(expense) primarily related to favorable changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

Income taxes

Income (benefit) tax expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, was ($60) and ($90), respectively, compared to expense of $31 and $106 for the same periods in 2010. The benefit for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011 was primarily due to Federal Alternative Minimum Tax refunds and foreign operating loss. The expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010 was primarily due to foreign operating income and state tax estimated payments.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of September 30, 2011, we had $193 of cash on hand. Sources of our cash for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 have been from our operations and financing activities, as described below.

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

	Nine months Ended
	September 30, 2011			September 30, 2010
Cash provided by (used in):
Operating activities	$	526		$	1,302
Investing activities		(1,535	)		(444	)
Financing activities		913			(447	)
Effect of exchange rate changes on cash		8			(4	)
Increase(decrease) in cash	$	(88	)	$	407

The most significant items that contributed to the $526 of cash provided by operating activities was the change in net income adjusted for non-cash depreciation, and increases in inventory offset by increases in accounts payable related to timing.

Net cash used in investing activities consisted of purchases of property, plant and equipment of $1,535.

Net cash provided by financing activities of $913 was comprised primarily of net borrowings of $ 811.

The Company had the following bank arrangements:

	September 30, 2011		December 31, 2010

Total borrowing capacity under existing facilities	$	13,161	$	10,532

Facility Borrowings:
Domestic revolving credit facility		3,584		3,920
Domestic term loan		3,750		2,563
Foreign overdraft and letter of credit facility		1,687		1,377
Total borrowings and commitments		9,021		7,860
Remaining availability under existing facilities	$	4,140	$	2,672

Domestic Credit Facilities

To finance a portion of the Company’s acquisition of Jon Barron, Inc. doing business as Datrix (“Datrix”) and replace the Company’s existing credit facilities with Bank of America, including capital leases, the Company and its domestic subsidiaries entered into a credit facility with The PrivateBank and Trust Company on August 13, 2009. The credit facility, as amended, provides for:

	■	an $8,000 revolving credit facility, with a $200 subfacility for letters of credit. Under the revolving credit facility, the availability of funds depends on a borrowing base composed of stated percentages of the Company’s eligible trade receivables and eligible inventory, and eligible equipment less a reserve; and
	■	a term loan in the original amount of $4,000.

In August 2011, the Company amended the credit facility with The PrivateBank. Per the terms of the amended agreement, the maturity of both the term loan and the revolving credit facility was extended to expire on August 13, 2014. Further, the term loan was increased from its then current balance of $2,225 to $4,000. In addition, the amendment reset certain financial covenants. The Company was in compliance with all applicable covenants under the credit facility, as amended, as of September 30, 2011.

Loans under the credit facility are secured by a security interest in substantially all of the assets of the Company and its domestic subsidiaries including a pledge of the stock of its domestic subsidiaries. Loans under the credit facility bear interest at varying rates based on the Company’s leverage ratio of funded debt / EBITDA, at the option of the Company, at:

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

Table of Contents

Weighted average interest on the domestic asset-based revolving credit facility was 3.59% for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 4.41% for the year ended December 31, 2010. The outstanding balance of the revolving credit facility was $3,584 and $3,920 at September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. The total remaining availability on the domestic revolving credit facility was approximately $3,114 and $2,072 at September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. The credit facility expires on August 13, 2014 and all outstanding borrowings will become due and payable.

The outstanding principal balance of the term loan, as amended, is payable in quarterly installments of $250, commencing with the calendar quarter ended September 30, 2011. Any remaining principal and accrued interest is payable on August 13, 2014. IntriCon is also required to use 100% of the net cash proceeds of certain asset sales (excluding inventory and certain other dispositions), sale of capital securities or issuance of debt to pay down the term loan.

Foreign Credit Facility

In addition to its domestic credit facilities, the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, IntriCon, PTE LTD., entered into an international senior secured credit agreement with Oversea-Chinese Banking Corporation Ltd. that provides for a $1,977 line of credit. The international credit agreement was modified in August 2010 and again in August 2011 to allow for an additional total of $736 in borrowing under the existing base to fund the Singapore facility relocation, Batam facility construction and various other capital needs. Borrowings bear interest at a rate of .75% to 2.5% over the lender’s prevailing prime lending rate. Weighted average interest on the international credit facilities was 4.24% for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 4.14% for the year ended December 31, 2010. The outstanding balance was $1,687 and $1,377 at September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. The total remaining availability on the international senior secured credit agreement was approximately $1,026 and $600 at September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively.

Datrix Promissory Note

A portion of the purchase price of the Datrix acquisition was paid by the issuance of a promissory note to the seller in the amount of $1,050 bearing annual interest at 6%. The remaining principal amount of the promissory note is payable in one installment of $350 on August 13, 2012. The note bears annual interest at 6% and is payable with each installment of principal as set forth above. The Company made the first two installment payments, including interest, of $413 and $395 on August 13, 2010 and August 13, 2011, respectively.

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

Critical Accounting Policies

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

Certain accounting estimates and assumptions are particularly sensitive because their significance to the consolidated condensed financial statements and the possibility that future events affecting them may differ markedly. The accounting policies of the Company with significant estimates and assumptions include the Company’s revenue recognition, accounts receivable reserves, inventory valuation, goodwill, long-lived assets, deferred taxes policies and employee benefit obligations. These and other significant accounting policies are described in and incorporated by reference from “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” and Note 1 to the financial statements contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010.

ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

For information regarding the Company’s exposure to certain market risks, see Item 7A, Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk, in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010. There have been no material changes in the Company’s market risk exposures which have occurred since December 31, 2010.

ITEM 4. Controls and Procedures

The Company’s management, with the participation of its chief executive officer and chief financial officer, conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e), as of September 30, 2011 (the “Disclosure Controls Evaluation”). Based on the Disclosure Controls Evaluation, the Company’s chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide a reasonable level of assurance that: (i) information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports the Company files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms and (ii) information required to be disclosed in the reports the Company files or submits under Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including the principal executive officer and principal financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure, all in accordance with Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e).

There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f), during the quarter ended September 30, 2011, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

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