NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, consistent in all material respects with those applied in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006. The interim financial information is unaudited, but reflects all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the financial position and operating results of Viewpoint Corporation (Viewpoint or the Company) for the interim periods.
These unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X and, therefore, do not include all of the information and footnotes normally provided in annual financial statements. As a result, these unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto, together with managements discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations, contained in Viewpoints Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006. The results of operations for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2007, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2007 or other future periods.
The year-end consolidated balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Liquidity
The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company had cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities of $ 5.7 million at June 30, 2007. During the six months ended June 30, 2007, net cash used in operations amounted to $ 3.2 million. As of June 30, 2007, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $ 292.7 million. The Company has incurred negative cash flows and net losses since inception. Based on current operating levels combined with limited capital resources, financing operations for the remainder of 2007 will require that the Company improve operating results through cost cutting measures, increases in revenues or both, and/or raise sufficient additional equity or debt capital. If the Companys expected revenue targets are not achieved or the Company fails to raise sufficient equity or debt capital, management would implement cost reduction measures including work force reduction as well as reduction in overhead costs and capital expenditures.
There can be no assurance that the Company will achieve or sustain positive cash flows from operations or profitability. Without improving operating results through increasing revenues, reducing expenses and/or raising additional capital, future operations will need to be discontinued. All these factors raise substantial doubt about the Companys ability to continue as a going concern.
On May 4, 2007, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with certain accredited investors, including DG FastChannel, Inc., as to which the Company also entered into a strategic partnership (see note 8), under which Viewpoint issued 13.3 million shares of Viewpoint common stock in a private placement to such accredited investors at a purchase price of $0.40 per share (resulting in aggregate gross proceeds of $5.3 million). The investors in the transaction also received warrants to purchase an additional 3.3 million shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.45 per share (subject to certain adjustments). Such warrants are not exercisable for six months following issuance and have an aggregate term of three and one-half years. As discussed in note 8, on May 7, 2007 the Company announced the closing of the transaction and the receipt of $5.3 million. While the proceeds from the private placement provide additional liquidity, the Company still believes that near term operating levels require that the Company improve operating results through cost cutting measures, increases in revenues or both in order to mitigate the substantial doubt as to the Companys ability to continue as a going concern.
Of the 13.3 million shares and 3.3 million warrants issued in the agreement, DG FastChannel, Inc. received 10.8 million shares and 2.7 million warrants in consideration for $4.3 million.
In connection with the private placement completed in May 2007, Viewpoint entered into a Registration Rights Agreement with the investors pursuant to which Viewpoint is required to file a registration statement with the SEC covering the shares within 45 days of the closing of the private placement. The Company filed a registration statement on Form S-3 with the SEC on June 18, 2007 and an amendment to the Form S-3 with the SEC on August 1, 2007. On August 7, 2007, the SEC declared the registration statement effective.
The Nasdaq Stock Market (Nasdaq) notified Viewpoint Corporation (the Company) on November 27, 2006 that the Companys common stock could be delisted from Nasdaq for failure to maintain a minimum bid price of $1.00 and that the Company had until May 29, 2007 to regain compliance with the listing standards of The Nasdaq Global Market. On May 24, 2007, the

VIEWPOINT CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
Company received written notification from Nasdaq that the Staff had approved the Companys application to transfer the listing of the Companys common stock from The Nasdaq Global Market to The Nasdaq Capital Market. The Companys securities commenced trading on The Nasdaq Capital Market effective May 29, 2007.
On June 6, 2007, the Company received notification from Nasdaq that the Company has regained compliance with Nasdaqs continued listing requirements under Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(4). The notification provided that the closing bid price of the Companys common stock has been at $1.00 per share or greater for at least 10 consecutive business days and, accordingly, Nasdaq advised the Company that this matter is now closed.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The most significant estimates impact the following accounts: revenue, receivables, liabilities, warrants, goodwill, the useful lives of intangible and fixed assets and employee stock compensation.
Net Loss Per Common Share
Basic net loss per common share is computed using the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding, and diluted net loss per common share is computed using the weighted average number of shares of common stock and common equivalent shares outstanding. Because they do not have a dilutive effect, approximately 12.5 million and 11.5 million of common share equivalents for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, respectively, and approximately 12.4 million and 13.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2006, respectively, were excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per common share.
Comprehensive Income (Loss)
For all periods presented, the difference between net loss and comprehensive net loss was not material.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2006, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109 (FIN 48), which clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in a companys financial statements. The interpretation prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute criteria for the financial statement recognition and measurement of an uncertain tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The interpretation also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. The Company adopted the provisions of FIN 48 on January 1, 2007. Since the Company does not have any uncertain tax positions, the implementation of FIN 48 did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements. At January 1, 2007 and June 30, 2007 there were no accrued liabilities for tax-related interest and penalties, which the Company recognizes as general and administrative expense as incurred. Since the Company has incurred net losses for tax purposes since inception, all tax years remain open to examination by major taxing jurisdictions, which are the federal government and states of New York and California.
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (FAS 157). FAS 157 establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. The changes to current practice resulting from the application of this Statement relate to the definition of fair value, the methods used to measure fair value, and the expanded disclosures about fair value measurements. We will be required to adopt the provisions of FAS 157 beginning with our first quarter ending March 31, 2008. We do not believe that the adoption of the provisions of FAS 157 will materially impact our consolidated financial statements.
In February 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities Including an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 115 which is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. This statement permits an entity to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value at specified election dates. Subsequent unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected will be reported in earnings. We are currently evaluating the potential impact of this statement.

2. Goodwill and Intangible Assets
As required by SFAS No. 142, goodwill is subject to impairment tests annually, or earlier if indicators of potential impairment exist, using a fair-value-based approach. All other intangible assets are amortized over their estimated useful lives and are assessed for impairment under SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.
Goodwill impairment has been assessed on a reporting unit basis based on the net asset value of each segment, including goodwill, and the estimated fair market value of each reporting unit. Fair market value of a reporting unit is estimated based on a comparison of that segments revenue or gross profit performance to the performance of similar companies, as well as discounted cash flows, using a discount rate of 16%.
A summary of changes in the Companys goodwill by reporting unit and intangible assets during the three and six months ended June 30, 2007 by aggregated segment are as follows (in thousands):

3. Long-Term Debt
Subordinated Notes
In March 2007, the Company and the Clarke Estates, a subordinated note holder, who holds ownership interest in the Companys stock of approximately 12%, amended the 4.95% subordinated note in the principal amount of $3.1 million to extend the maturity date from March 31, 2008 to September 30, 2009. In addition, the Clarke Estates waived the requirement that the Companys common stock remain listed on a national stock exchange, as defined, until December 31, 2008, in exchange for the payment by Viewpoint of $0.2 million to the holder of the subordinated note, and the addition of $0.3 million to the principle amount of the note payable at maturity but not subject to interest.
Following the guidance in EITF 02-4 Determining Whether a Debtors Modification or Exchange of Debt Instruments is within the Scope of FASB Statement No 15, the Company accounted for the March 2007 amendment to the subordinated note, which was issued in March 2003, as a troubled debt transaction in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 15 Accounting by Debtors and Creditors for Troubled Debt Restructurings. Pursuant to SFAS 15 and EITF 02-4, if the Company is deemed to be experiencing financial difficulty and the Companys effective borrowing rate in the restructuring is decreased, the Holder is deemed to have granted a concession. Since the Company announced there was substantial risk to continue as a going concern, the Company was deemed to be experiencing financial difficulties. The Companys effective borrowing rate is determined by the carrying value of the debt and the timing and amount of future cash payments. The Company determined that the effective borrowing rate was lowered. Accordingly, the Company accounted for the amendment as a troubled debt restructuring, and therefore, no change was made to the carrying value of the debt. In addition the interest expense over the remaining life of the note will be determined by an effective borrowing rate of 21%.

7. Acquisition of Makos Advertising, L.P.
On March 12, 2007, the Company entered into a Purchase Agreement to acquire all of the outstanding partnership interests of Makos Advertising, L.P. (Makos). On April 30, 2007, the Company completed the Purchase Agreement. In exchange for the all of the outstanding partnership interests of Makos, the Company issued an aggregate of 0.7 million shares of Company common stock to the partners of Makos and paid $0.6 million in cash.
The operating results of Makos have been included within the consolidated operating results of the Company since May 1, 2007. The impact of Makoss operating results for the period from May 1, 2007 through June 30, 2007 was not material to the Companys operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007.
The number of shares issuable and the amount of cash payable by the Company are subject to adjustment based on (i) the difference in the estimated net book value of Makos based on the year-end balance sheet as compared to the net book value as of the closing date of the transaction and (ii) subsequent receipt by the Company of accounts receivable outstanding on the closing date of the transaction.
The Company also paid off outstanding debt in the form of a line of credit owed by Makos in the amount of approximately $0.1 million and also assumed outstanding debt relating to another line of credit in the amount of approximately $0.1 million.
As of June 30, 2007, the Company is accumulating needed information in order to calculate the fair value of acquired assets and assumed liabilities and accordingly the purchase price allocation has not been finalized. The preliminary purchase price allocation appears below and is subject to change, which could be material.
Goodwill was determined based upon the excess of the fair value of common stock issued, cash paid and liabilities assumed less identifiable assets acquired. Goodwill recorded is subject to adjustment based upon the final amount of working capital acquired. Consideration paid for the acquisition amounted to $0.9 million comprised of cash consideration of $0.6 million plus the issuance of 0.7 million shares of common stock valued at $0.3 million. The following table, which is based on preliminary estimates and subject to change, summarizes amounts recorded in connection with the Makos acquisition,

8. Private Placement of Common Stock and Warrants
The Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with certain accredited investors, dated as of May 4, 2007, under which the Company issued 13.3 million shares of the Company common stock in a private placement to such accredited investors at a purchase price of $0.40 per share (resulting in aggregate gross proceeds of $5.3 million ). The investors in the transaction also received warrants to purchase an additional 3.3 million shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.45 per share (subject to certain adjustments). Such warrants are not exercisable for six months following issuance and have an aggregate term of three and one-half years. For financial reporting purposes, the terms and provisions of the warrants require that the Company record the fair value of the warrants as a liability at the time of issuance in accordance with SFAS No. 133 "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," and EITF Issue No. 00-19 "Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to, and Potentially Settled in, a Company's Own Stock." Initial fair value assigned to the warrants at issuance was $1.4 million. At each balance sheet date subsequent to issuance, the carrying amount of warrants are adjusted to the current fair value using the Black-Scholes Method and any changes of the warrants are included within operating results. On May 7, 2007 the Company announced the closing of the transaction and the receipt of $5.3 million.

You should carefully review the risks described in other documents we file from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including any future reports to be filed in 2007 and our Annual Report on Form 10-K and amendments for 2006. When used in this report, the words will, expects, anticipates, intends, plans, believes, seeks, targets, estimates, and similar expressions are generally intended to identify forward-looking statements.

We undertake no obligation to publicly release any revisions to the forward looking statements or reflect events or circumstances after the date of this document.
Overview
Overview. The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company had cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities of $5.7 million at June 30, 2007. During the six months ended June 30, 2007, net cash used in operations amounted to $3.2 million. As of June 30, 2007, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $292.7 million. The Company has incurred negative cash flows and net losses since inception. Based on current operating levels combined with limited capital resources, financing operations for the remainder of 2007 will require that the Company improve operating results through cost cutting measures, increases in revenues or both, and/or raise sufficient additional equity or debt capital. If the Companys expected revenue targets are not achieved or the Company fails to raise sufficient equity or debt capital, management would implement cost reduction measures including work force reduction as well as reduction in overhead costs and capital expenditures.
There can be no assurance that the Company will achieve or sustain positive cash flows from operations or profitability. Without improving operating results through increasing revenues, reducing expenses and/or raising additional capital, future operations will need to be discontinued. All these factors raise substantial doubt about the Companys ability to continue as a going concern.
The Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with certain accredited investors, including DG FastChannel, Inc., as to which the Company also entered into a strategic partnership (see note 8), dated as of May 4, 2007, under which Viewpoint issued 13.3 million shares of Viewpoint common stock in a private placement to such accredited investors at a purchase price of $0.40 per share (resulting in aggregate gross proceeds of $5.3 million). The investors in the transaction also received warrants to purchase an additional 3.3 million shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.45 per share (subject to certain adjustments). Such warrants are not exercisable for six months following issuance and have an aggregate term of three and one-half years. As discussed in note 8, on May 7, 2007 the Company announced the closing of the transaction and the receipt of $5.3 million. While the proceeds from the private placement provide additional liquidity the Company still believes that near term operating levels require that the Company improve operating results through cost cutting measures, increases in revenues or both in order to mitigate the substantial doubt as to the Companys ability to continue as a going concern.
Of the 13.3 million shares and 3.3 million warrants issued in the agreement, DG FastChannel, Inc. received 10.8 million shares and 2.7 million warrants in consideration for $4.3 million.
In connection with the private placement, Viewpoint entered into a Registration Rights Agreement with the investors pursuant to which Viewpoint is required to file a registration statement with the SEC covering the shares within 45 days of the closing of the private placement. The Company filed a registration statement on Form S-3 with the SEC on June 18, 2007 and an amendment to the Form S-3 with the SEC on August 1, 2007. On August 7, 2007, the SEC declared the registration statement effective.
Viewpoint Corporation (Viewpoint or the Company) is an internet marketing technology company that focuses on using its technical capabilities to help marketers effectively promote their products online. Viewpoint provides a full suite of digital products, services and consulting for internet marketers. Viewpoint employs its visualization technology to drive powerful customer-facing marketing tools that enable marketers to showcase complex products in a simple way, and allows for user interaction. Since 2003 we have extended the historical imaging capabilities of our proprietary graphics technology to develop a search business that provides internet consumers a flexible graphical searching experience and an advertising delivery system that specializes in deploying video and rich media advertising. The company supplements its revenues in these product segments by using its in-house services team to build sophisticated content that is used by customers in each product segment. Finally, the Company previously licensed its Viewpoint Media Player platform to internet publishers enabling them to deploy graphical sophisticated content at their websites; however in June 2005, the Company began to enable free use of its Viewpoint Media Player platform to facilitate growth in its search and advertising systems segments.
15
Viewpoint offers an online advertising campaign management and deployment product known as the Unicast Advertising Platform or UAP. UAP permits publishers, advertisers, and their agencies to manage the process of deploying online advertising campaigns. This process includes creating the advertising assets, selecting the sites on which the advertisements will be deployed, setting the metrics (ad rotation, the frequency with which an ad may be deployed, and others) associated with the campaign, ad deployment, and tracking of campaign results. UAP enables users to manage advertising campaigns across many sites.
In March 2004, Viewpoint entered the internet search business by launching a toolbar search product which the Company calls the Viewpoint Toolbar. The Viewpoint Toolbar attaches to the Internet Explorer browser, enabling web surfers to conduct internet searches without leaving the web page they are viewing. When a user enters a term or phrase in the search field of the Viewpoint Toolbar, search results appear not only as text links listed on a search results page but also as thumbnail icons of the web pages themselves in a tray that descends from the Viewpoint Toolbar. Additionally, if a user visits certain internet search engine sites the Viewpoint Toolbar will simultaneously receive a users search request and provide the user comparative thumbnail search results in the Viewpoint Toolbar search results tray.
The Company executed a search advertising agreement with Yahoo! in 2004, which was amended in 2006 and in 2007. The agreement provides that Yahoo! is the exclusive provider of search results for the Viewpoint Toolbar through March 2008. Yahoo! pays a variable fee per month for access to the Companys distribution and exclusive rights to display search results through the Viewpoint Toolbar. Revenue generated is a function of the number of Viewpoint Toolbars performing searches, the number of searches that are sponsored by advertisers, the number of advertisements that are clicked on by Viewpoint Toolbar searchers, the rate advertisers pay for those advertisements, and the percentage retained by Yahoo! for providing the results. In October 2005, we launched version 3.5 of the Viewpoint Toolbar which includes the capability to manage digital photograph files on the users computer and provides the ability to share the photographs at a website or purchase printed copies of the photographs. We had licensed the trademark and internet url Fotomat.com for our exclusive use in connection with the internet website for photograph and printing services and computer software for organization, editing, managing, sharing, and processing images and related data through the end of December 2006, with the ability to renew such license. In November 2006, Viewpoint purchased the trademark and URL to Fotomat outright. The Fotomat Toolbar provides enhanced photograph editing capabilities and an efficient method of creating albums of photographs, which we believe will enhance the utility of the toolbars for users, while simultaneously allowing users to use the Toolbar to search the internet.
Prior to launching our Search product we principally leveraged our distributed base of Viewpoint Media Players (VMP) by licensing access to use the Viewpoint Platform for display of content on a website. Viewpoint initiated internet activities with the release of a beta version of the VMP in 1999. Simultaneously, Viewpoint released a suite of content authoring tools specifically designed to enable customers who published digital content on their websites to create material that can be read or played back by the VMP. With the VMP residing on the web consumers computer and interpreting instructions delivered by our customers web sites, web sites can transmit relatively small files that can yield rich media on the end users computer. In this way, website owners can deploy digital content representing three-dimensional views of their products, include pre-set animations, and provide high-resolution two-dimensional views, video, audio, text, and other media types. For example, we have licensing customers who are auto manufacturers that deploy from their websites 3D representations of their vehicles which viewers can interact with by opening doors, zooming in on features, configuring accessories, or swapping colors. Our licensees helped facilitate the growth of our distributed base of VMPs that we used to launch our Search Toolbar business.
We provide fee-based professional services for creating content and implementing visualization systems. Clients include both content-related licensees and advertisers who use UAP as well as internal services provided to our marketing team. Our professional services group uses the Viewpoint platform, as well as a spectrum of tools and other technologies to create enhanced rich media solutions for a clients particular purpose, whether over the web, intranet systems or offline media and applications. We provide the support our clients need to implement the rich media content, to fully utilize the enhanced software, or to maximize the branding potential of the advertising opportunity. With the addition of Makos Advertising, a full service creative agency, in April 2007 the Company began offering broadcast and video advertising content, branding and graphic design. Clients supported during 2007 include America Online, Toyota Motor Services, General Electric and Honda.
Viewpoint has a limited operating history upon which an evaluation of the Company and its prospects can be based. Viewpoint has had significant quarterly and annual operating losses since its inception, and, as of June 30, 2007, had an accumulated deficit of $ 292.7 million. Viewpoints prospects must be considered in light of the risks and difficulties frequently encountered by early stage technology companies. There can be no assurance that Viewpoint will achieve or sustain profitability.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Viewpoints discussion and analysis of its financial condition and results of operations are based upon its consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires the Company to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that the Company believes to be reasonable under the circumstances though actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. For a complete description of the Companys critical accounting policies and estimates refer to the Companys 2006 Form 10-K and amendments.
Financial Performance Summary
Viewpoint reported total revenue of $3.8 million for the second quarter of 2007 compared to $5.7 million for the second quarter of 2006. The decrease was caused primarily by a decrease in Advertising System revenue of $1.6 million and a decrease in Services revenue of $0.4 million partially offset by an increase in Search revenue of $0.2 million. The decrease in Advertising Systems revenue was attributable to a decrease in media services revenue. Gross profit decreased by $0.4 million to $2.4 million for the second quarter of 2007 compared to $2.8 million in the second quarter of 2006. Operating loss for the second quarter of 2007 was $2.6 million compared to $2.1 million in the second quarter of 2006. Net loss for the second quarter 2007 was $5.2 million, or a loss of $0.07 per share, compared to a net loss of $ 2.8 million, or a loss of $0.04 per share, in the second quarter of 2006.
Viewpoint reported total revenue of $7.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007, compared to $9.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006. Advertising Systems revenue decreased $2.1 million, Services revenue decreased $0.2 million and Search Revenue decreased $0.2 million. The decrease in Advertising Systems revenue was attributable to a decrease in media services revenue. Gross profit decreased to $4.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007 compared to $5.1 million for the prior period. Operating loss for the six months ended June 30, 2007, was $4.6 million compared to $5.2 million in the six months ended June 30, 2006. Net loss for six months ended June 30, 2007, was $7.2 million, or a loss of $0.10 per share, compared to a net loss of $ 6.8 million, or a loss of $0.10 per share, in the six months ended June 30, 2006.
Viewpoints cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities as of June 30, 2007 were $5.7 million. This can be compared to cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities of $4.3 million at December 31, 2006. The increase in cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities is primarily attributable to the private placement of common stock and warrants completed in May 2007 and to the exercise of stock options offset by cash used in operations and acquisitions.

Viewpoint offers an online advertising campaign management and deployment product. In July 2005, the Company deployed a new product, incorporating the Viewpoint Creative Innovator product and Unicasts UCP ad delivery system into one system. This system, known as the Unicast Ad Platform (UAP), permits publishers, advertisers, and their agencies to manage the process of deploying online advertising campaigns. The Company charges customers on a cost per thousand (CPM) impression basis, and recognizes revenue when the impressions are served, so long as all other revenue recognition criteria are satisfied. The Company also provides another advertising services product whereby the Company purchases media space from web-site publishers and resells that
18
space to advertisers. The Company acts as a principal party in the transaction, assumes the title to the media space purchased, and assumes the risks of collection and therefore recognizes the entire amount billed to the customer as revenue and the cost of the media space as cost of sales.
Additionally in March 2004 Viewpoint entered the internet search business by launching the Viewpoint Toolbar on a test basis. In April 2004, the Company ended the test phase and began delivering the Viewpoint Toolbar Version 1.0. Search revenue is generated when a customer uses the Viewpoint Toolbar to search the internet and clicks on a sponsored advertisement included in the search results. The Viewpoint Toolbars search results are provided by Yahoo!, which collects a fee from the advertiser and remits a percentage of the fee to Viewpoint. Revenue generated is a function of the number of Viewpoint Toolbars performing searches, the number of searches that are sponsored by advertisers, the number of advertisements that are clicked on by Viewpoint Toolbar searchers, the rate advertisers pay for those advertisements, and the percentage retained by Yahoo! for providing the results.
Viewpoint has a creative services group that builds content in the Viewpoint format for customers. Viewpoint charges customers fees for these services based on the estimated time and materials to complete a creative project, including an acceptable profit margin. Revenue is recognized on a proportional performance basis if all other revenue recognition criteria are satisfied. During 2006 and 2007, the Company continued its strategy of concentrating on executing larger creative projects.
The Company also generated revenues by selling licenses to the Viewpoint graphical platform principally to internet content publishers. In June 2005, Viewpoint announced that for all non-special-purpose licenses, it was discontinuing the practice of charging customers a license fee for the use of the Viewpoint Media Player and related technologies. The Viewpoint Media Player will no longer require a broadcast key to display content, thereby giving all developers a free license to the Viewpoint Distribution Network. However, Viewpoint will still charge for certain licenses requiring customization. By providing the standard license for free, the Company plans to extend the Viewpoint Media Players reach into new channels of distribution beyond the estimated 120 million computers it currently resides within. Viewpoint believes that this strategy supports the advertising businessby potentially making the player more pervasiveas well as providing stronger distribution for the search business.
The Company recognized $1.4 million in advertising systems revenue during the three months ended June 30, 2007 compared to $3.0 million for the same period in 2006. This revenue was generated by delivering advertising impressions to websites in several different formats, including video. The decline in advertising systems revenue is attributable to a decline in media services revenue which represents larger deal sizes at lower margins. The $1.6 million decrease in top-line revenue translated into a gross profit decrease of only $0.3 million.
The Company recognized $2.5 million in advertising systems revenue during the six months ended June 30, 2007 compared to $ 4.6 million for the same period in 2006. Again, like the second quarter results, the decline in advertising systems revenue for the six month period ended June 30, 2007, is primarily attributable to a decline in media services revenue which represents larger deal sizes at lower margins. The $2.1 million decrease in top-line revenue translated into a gross profit decrease of only $0.2 million.
Search revenues are generated when users of the Viewpoint Toolbar click on provided search results that are provided by advertisers. These advertisers then pay a fee to Yahoo!, which remits a percentage of the fee to Viewpoint. The Company had installed 8.7 million Viewpoint Toolbars through December 2004, 21.4 million through December 2005, 26.6 million through December 2006 and 29.1 million through June 2007. Internet users can uninstall the Viewpoint Toolbar, and through December 2004, 3.3 million users who had accepted the installation of the Toolbar had later uninstalled it during 2004. The total of uninstalled toolbars had increased to 9.9 million by December 2005, 13.5 million by December 2006, and 14.7 million by June 2007. Search revenues were $1.7 million and $3.2 million for the three and six month period ended June 30, 2007, respectively, compared to $1.6 million and $3.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2006, respectively. The Company is continuing to evaluate methods of enhancing the toolbar users experience on the web through new features. If the Company is unable to identify new enhancements to toolbar users, the Company expects to see a decrease in revenue in this segment.
Services revenues amounted to $0.7 million and $1.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, respectively, as compared to $1.1 million and $1.6 million for the same periods in 2006, respectively. The Company continued to see a decline in customers use of traditional site-side content development. The Company is addressing this decline by developing the segment to support the ad serving segment in reformatting video commercials. In this capacity, the Company will see a higher volume of smaller deals. In addition, the Company acquired Makos Advertising in April 2007 and is incorporating that business into its services segment. The Company will support the Makos Advertising business with the services segment in the future.
The Company essentially eliminated the sale of all but special-purposes licenses in June 2005 and believes that revenues in this segment will be insignificant in 2007.

Cost of revenues for advertising systems was $0.9 million and $1.4 million for the three and six month periods, respectively, ended June 30, 2007 compared to $2.2 million and $3.2 million for the same period last year. These costs consist of the web-hosting and employee fees associated with serving advertising content, costs for media space at websites when we package the media space with delivery, and costs of developing certain advertisements in contracts that include a combined price for developing creative material and delivering that material. The decreases in costs for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007 from the same periods in the prior year are related to the corresponding decreases in media services revenue.
The Company incurs cost of revenues related to Search revenue for the hosting services associated with providing search results. Bandwidth costs utilized in providing results has been minimal, and the Company believes that these costs will stay consistent.
Cost of revenues for services consists primarily of salaries, consulting fees and overhead for those who provide fee-based content creation and engineering professional services. Cost of revenues for services of $0.5 million and $1.0 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2007, respectively, compared to $0.6 million and $1.3 million for the same periods last year. The decrease in cost of revenues for services is attributable to a reduction in force that took place in March 2006. The Company believes that the costs for services as a percentage of revenue will improve during the remainder of 2007 as the Company continues to move the department to a variable cost model.

Sales and marketing expenses of $1.3 million for the three month period ended June 30, 2007 decreased by $0.1 million compared to the same period last year. The decrease was principally due to the discontinuance of licensing fees paid to Fotomat and a decrease in the use of consultants.

Research and development expenses consist primarily of salaries and benefits for software developers, and contracted development related to the Companys product development efforts. The Company expenses as incurred research and development costs necessary to establish the technological feasibility of its internally developed software products and technologies. To date, the establishment of technological feasibility of the Companys products and general release has substantially coincided. As a result, the Company has not capitalized any software development costs since costs qualifying for such capitalization have not been significant. Additionally, the Company capitalizes costs of software, consulting services, hardware and payroll-related costs incurred to purchase or develop internal-use software during the application development stage. The Company expenses costs incurred during preliminary project assessment.
The Companys research and development efforts are primarily directed at creating new technology in an effort to improve the overall quality of Viewpoints products: the Viewpoint Media Player and Enliven, its proprietary software tools for creating digital content; advertising systems products; and the Viewpoint Toolbar.
Research and development expenses of $0.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007 decreased by $0.3 million from compared to the same period last year. The decrease is primarily attributable to a 34% reduction in the number of research and development employees.

Interest expense consists of interest paid and accrued, and amortization of debt discount and debt issue costs on the Companys outstanding subordinated notes and the debt assumed based upon the Unicast acquisition on January 3, 2005. The decrease is primarily the result of a lowering of the effective borrowing rate on the subordinated notes and a principal payment of $0.2 million resulting from a restructuring that occurred in March 2007. The notes were executed and funded during the first quarter of 2003. During March and June 2004, all of the convertible notes were converted into shares of the Companys common stock.

Factors That May Affect Future Results of Operations
We believe that in the future our results of operations could be affected by various factors including the following. For a complete listing of risk factors you should read the Company's Form 10K/A for the year ended December 31, 2006:
We have a history of losses and expect to incur losses in the future, which may cause our share price to decline. These factors raise substantial doubts about our ability to continue as a going concern.
We may have to obtain financing on less favorable terms, which could dilute current stockholders ownership interests in the company.
Our stock may be de-listed from NASDAQ, which may adversely affect our ability to raise capital and stockholders ability to sell their shares.
If our common stock were to be de-listed from NASDAQ after December 31, 2008 we would be in default of certain loan covenants which could require the accelerated payment of our $3.4 million subordinated loan that is scheduled to mature in September 2009.
Our efforts to distribute our graphically enhanced toolbar may experience setbacks limiting or reducing our search revenue.
24
The success of our graphically enhanced search operations depends on users satisfaction with search results supplied by Yahoo!.
We may be unable to successfully replace our search results vendor when our distribution contract with Yahoo! Expires in March 2008.
Our software products may be wrongly labeled as spyware or adware which might lead to its uninstallation causing a decrease in our revenues.
Our business may not grow if the internet advertising market does not continue to develop or if we are unable to successfully implement our business model.
Our failure to successfully compete may hinder our growth.
Our revenues will be subject to seasonal fluctuations.
We may enter into business combinations and strategic alliances which could be difficult to integrate and may disrupt our business.
We may need to develop new products or other untested methods of increasing sales with our existing products or distribution network to generate sales and if we are unsuccessful the growth of our business may cease or decline.
We will need to keep pace with rapid technological changes in the internet search and advertising industries.
Our ad campaign management and deployment solution may not be successful and may cause business disruption.
We might experience significant defects in our products.
Our technical systems are vulnerable to interruption and damage.
Our management team has only recently started working together.
Our stock is volatile, which could subject us to class action litigation.
Our charter documents could make it more difficult for an unsolicited third party to acquire us.
The market for digital visualizations solutions is characterized by rapidly changing technology, and if we do not respond in a timely manner, our products and technologies may not succeed in the marketplace.
We may be unable to protect our intellectual property rights.
We may be liable for infringing on the intellectual property rights or others.
Regulatory and legal uncertainties could harm our business.
Changes in regulations or user concerns regarding privacy and protection of user data could adversely affect our business.
Internet security poses a risk to our business.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2006, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109 (FIN 48), which clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in a companys financial statements. The interpretation prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute criteria for the financial statement recognition and measurement of an uncertain tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The interpretation also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. The Company adopted the provisions of FIN 48 on January 1, 2007. Since the Company does not have any uncertain tax positions, the implementation of FIN 48 did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements. At January 1, 2007 and June 30, 2007 there were no accrued liabilities for tax-related interest and penalties, which the Company recognizes as general and administrative expense as incurred. Since the Company has incurred net losses for tax purposes since inception, all tax years remain open to examination by major taxing jurisdictions, which include the federal government and the states of New York and California.
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (FAS 157). FAS 157 establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. The changes to current practice resulting
25
from the application of this Statement relate to the definition of fair value, the methods used to measure fair value, and the expanded disclosures about fair value measurements. We will be required to adopt the provisions of FAS 157 beginning with our first quarter ending March 31, 2008. We do not believe that the adoption of the provisions of FAS 157 will materially impact our consolidated financial statements.
In February 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities Including an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 115 which is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. This statement permits an entity to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value at specified election dates. Subsequent unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected will be reported in earnings. We are currently evaluating the potential impact of this statement.

In the six months ended June 30, 2007, cash used in operating activities was $3.2 million compared to $2.6 million in the six months ended June 30, 2006. In the six months ended June 30, 2007 the use of cash in operating activities was caused primarily by the net loss of $7.2 million offset by the change in fair value of the warrants amounting to $2.3 million, stock based compensation expense of $1.0 million, and depreciation and amortization of $0.7 million.
In the six months ended June 30, 2006, the use of cash was mainly due to a net loss of $6.8 million as well as a decrease in accounts payable of $0.7 million, offset by a decrease in accounts receivable of $1.5 million, a change in the fair value of warrants of $1.2 million, stock-based compensation charges of $1.2 million, depreciation and amortization expenses of $0.6 million and amortization of debt related costs of $0.4 million.
Investing activities
In the six months ended June 30, 2007, cash used in investing activities of $0.8 million was primarily attributable to cash used in the acquisition of Makos of $0.4 million net of cash acquired, and $0.2 million related to the net purchases of marketable securities, and $0.2 million related to the purchase of property and equipment.

Long-Term Debt
In March 2007, the Company and a holder of the subordinated debt amended the 4.95% subordinated note in the principal amount of $3.1 million (referred to herein as the Holder) to extend the maturity date from March 31, 2008 to September 30, 2009 in exchange for the payment by Viewpoint of $0.2 million to the holder of the subordinated note, and adding $0.3 million to the principle of the note. In addition, the amendment waived the requirement that the Companys common stock remain listed on a national stock exchange until December 31, 2008. Also see Note 3 to the accompanying financial statements.
Other Transactions
On March 12, 2007, the Company entered into a Purchase Agreement to acquire all of the outstanding partnership interests of Makos Advertising, L.P. On April 30, 2007, the Company completed the Purchase Agreement. In exchange for the all of the outstanding partnership interests of Makos Advertising, L.P., the Company issued an aggregate of 0.7 million shares of Company common stock to the partners of Makos Advertising, L.P. and paid $0.6 million in cash.
The number of shares issuable and the amount of cash payable by the Company are subject to adjustment based on (i) the difference in the estimated net book value of Makos Advertising, L.P. based on the year-end balance sheet as compared to the net book value as of the closing date of the transaction and (ii) subsequent receipt by the Company of accounts receivable outstanding on the closing date of the transaction.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
The Company is subject to concentration of credit risk and interest rate risk related to cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities. Credit risk is managed by limiting the amount of securities placed with any one issuer, investing in high-quality marketable securities and securities of the U.S. government and limiting the average maturity of the overall portfolio. The majority of the Companys portfolio, which is classified as available-for-sale, is comprised of fixed income securities that are subject to the risk of market interest rate fluctuations, and all of the Companys securities are subject to risks associated with the ability of the issuers to perform their obligations under the instruments. The Company may suffer losses in principal if forced to sell securities, which have declined in market value due to changes in interest rates.
Item 4. Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Based on our managements evaluation, with the participation of our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer, as of June 30, 2007, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, (the Exchange Act)) were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure.
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in the evaluation that occurred during the second quarter of our fiscal year 2007 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
