PART I


Item 1.  Business.


OVERVIEW


Founded in 1995, the business of Wizzard Software Corporation, a Colorado corporation ("Wizzard," "we," "our" or "us" or words of similar import), includes Media, Software and Healthcare.   Wizzard’s core focus is on our Media business, which consists of providing podcasting hosting, distribution, audience analysis, advertising, content subscriptions and App sales for podcast producers worldwide.  Our legacy Software business focuses on selling and supporting speech recognition and text-to-speech technology from IBM and AT&T.  Our legacy Healthcare business focuses on providing home health services and nurse staffing in the Western part of the United States.  

 

     Our products and services include:


Podcasting Hosting and Media Services - Wizzard Media provides a web based podcast distribution platform for podcast producers wanting to broadcast their audio or video show to people worldwide, in most cases through RSS distribution. Wizzard Media hosts over 1.5 million podcast episodes for over 10,883 podcast shows and distributes them to over 20 million unique monthly audience members.  Wizzard’s service accumulates and provides audience statistics as well as provides advertising sales, ad insertion and App creation and sales to help podcasters generate revenue.  Wizzard receives all publishing revenues generated and at least 50% of advertising and App sales revenues.


Speech Tools & Engine - Wizzard markets IBM and AT&T developer tools through agreements with those companies and receives a portion of the licensing fees collected.  Wizzard offers Text-To-Speech Engines from IBM and AT&T to software developers and businesses around the world, as well as speech recognition engines from IBM. Wizzard receives payments for each copy/license distributed by its customers and in turn, pays a percentage of that payment to IBM or AT&T.

Home Healthcare Services - Interim HealthCare of Wyoming is a state licensed and Medicare certified home health agency.  In addition, Interim HealthCare of Wyoming provides temporary staffing of healthcare professionals to facilities across the states of Wyoming and Montana.


Our principal executive offices consist of approximately 3,100 square feet of office space located at 5001 Baum Boulevard, Suite 770, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania 15213.  Our telephone number is (412) 621-0902.  We also maintain offices in Casper, Wyoming and Billings, Montana.


BUSINESS


Our core business is broken into three departments including Media, Software and Healthcare.


    MEDIA – Podcasting & Apps


Podcasts are audio and video "shows" created by all types of people on standard personal computers.  Currently, 80% of podcasts are audio and 20% video and are similar in format to a radio or TV show.  These shows average twenty minutes in length and range in topics from comedy to sports to fashion.  Due to the thousands of different niche topics, podcasting’s ability to reach highly targeted audiences is a very appealing proposition for advertisers.  They can be subscribed to for free and accessed through new media aggregators such as Apple's popular iTunes.  Podcasts are listened to or watched on Apple’s iPods, iPads and iPhones along with almost any MP3 player, Sony’s PlayStation Portable, Blackberry, Android, Tivo units, and can also be played online using a computer.  Every time a new episode is released from the podcast creator (approximately three times per month), it can be automatically downloaded to a subscriber’s computer and can be transferred over to an iPod or MP3 player with ease.  Now, using iPods, iPhones and Android Phones with Apps, audiences can download or stream a podcast and watch it directly on their device.  Podcasts provide a new and exciting medium for information and entertainment distribution. Podcasts are enjoyed by consumers around the world while at their computer, exercising, on flights, at the beach, in their cars, or on the subway and with the Apple TV, sitting at home in their living room. One of the biggest reasons for the success of podcasting is due to the fact that, unlike traditional radio and television, consumers can enjoy podcast shows where they want, when they want, putting the control of media consumption into the consumer’s hands.  


When one creates a podcast, they upload it on the internet to a host, who creates an individual RSS feed and then continuously broadcasts the show out to anyone who subscribes.  Podcast hosts also maintain viewer statistics, blogs, web pages and a host of other tools and services for podcasters to broadcast; manage and promote their shows.


Wizzard Media is the media division for our business.  As the world's largest podcasting network, Wizzard Media currently broadcasts over one hundred million (100M) podcast shows each month.   The Wizzard Media Network received over 1.2 billion download requests in 2011.  With the continued success of the iPod Touch, iPhones, Android phones and an improved Apple TV along with other phone and media players supporting podcasts, we expect podcasting to continue to grow in the near term.  


Wizzard Media received an average of 4.8 million podcast requests for episodes per day for 10,883 unique podcast shows for a total of 1.8 million hours of daily programming.  These podcasts are consumed by millions of people around the world creating what management believes to be a strong media asset and a very compelling marketing platform for brand advertisers. We strongly believe that Wizzard Media is uniquely positioned to capture a significant portion of total advertising spending on podcasts in the future as we offer a rich inventory of popular content, strong consumption statistics and geographically and keyword targeted advertising capabilities.  While there can be no future pricing guarantees, the podcasting industry is currently charging, and plans to continue to charge, between $.005 and $.01 per downloaded ad.  The ads tend to be no longer than 15 seconds and several ads can be inserted in one twenty minute episode.  


Wizzard Media is the catalyst for attracting sponsors and advertising opportunities for the podcasts we currently broadcast.  Applying our geographical targeting capabilities we can find strong, relevant advertising opportunities for national brands, which is a significant revenue generating opportunity for Wizzard and for our content producers.  Advertisers and consumers alike want relevant, focused advertisements, something clearly lacking in today's digital media offerings, yet can be accomplished using our combined technologies and skills.  Using our dynamic advertisement insertion technology we can insert the ad in the front, the back or even at a very specific point inside the podcast where it is most relevant to the listener.  Management believes this fundamental feature gives Wizzard Media a strong competitive advantage



3




making it easier to attract advertisers and sponsors who want to successfully align their brand of products and services with high-value content and a targeted audience on our network.


Sale of Custom Podcast Apps


Wizzard creates Apps for sale in the App Stores that can be customized quickly for podcast producers.   Podcasters then market their very own customized App to their show’s audience.  Management believes podcasters can be very successful marketing their own customized App to their audience, as they know their audience better than anyone else and are great influencers of their audience.  The reasons Management believes an audience member would want to purchase an App for a specific podcast are: 1) Easier, faster access to the content.  2) Bonus content exclusively for App users. 3) Inexpensive and easy way to support their favorite podcasts.  4) Social communication features.  


Wizzard provides Apps as a free tool to podcasters on the Wizzard Network to every podcaster on the network.  Currently, there are approximately 10,883 podcast shows on the Wizzard Network and over 20 million audience members, of which approximately 70% use iTunes to discover and download podcasts.  Audience members watch and /or listen to podcasts on their phone, ipad, ipod or android service.  Wizzard submits custom Apps to various App Stores for approval, which is not guaranteed and is based on the terms of service and an approval process, and will manage the collecting of the revenue from Apple, Google, Amazon and other App Store operators and distribution of the podcaster’s share of the revenues.  Wizzard expects to retain approximately 35% of the sale price that will range from $.99 to $4.99 in most cases.


Sale of Podcast Subscriptions and Episodes Via Custom Podcast Apps


Once a podcaster has successfully marketed its own custom App to its audience and has created a significant install base, Management believes that from time to time the podcaster can offer new content on a subscription basis or release a special episode, in addition to its normal podcast episodes, and charge a nominal fee ($.99) for that episode to its audience.  


SOFTWARE – Speech recognition and Text-To-Speech


Wizzard Software's legacy Speech Technology & Services Group sells and licenses speech programming tools, related speech products and services, and distributable speech engines in over 13 languages worldwide.  Wizzard receives the majority of its sales leads through arrangements with AT&T, as well as through our own Internet marketing efforts with Google, Yahoo and other major Internet search engines.


HEALTHCARE – Home Healthcare Services and Nurse Staffing


Based in Casper, Wyoming and Billings, Montana, Interim Health Care of Wyoming has been serving its community for 17 years and is part of the fast growing home health segment of the healthcare industry, providing a wide range of visiting nurse services to the elderly, wounded and sick. It is one of the 300 home health agencies that comprise Interim Health Care, the largest home healthcare franchise in the United States.  Wizzard currently derives the bulk of its revenues, 52% for 2011, from its home healthcare and staffing operations.  


Research and Development


During the calendar years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, the Company spent $286,410 and $320,600, respectively, on research and development.


Necessary Material


We depend upon a speech recognition company to license us their speech recognition engines.  It is these engines upon which we create our applications.  We do not foresee any difficulty in continuing to license these engines, due to the competitive market between their manufacturers.


Licenses


We have the following license, which is integral to our business operations:

Item 1A.  Risk Factors.


Risks Relating to Our Business


Our present and intended business operations are highly speculative and involve substantial risks.  Only investors who can bear the risk of losing their entire investment should consider buying our shares.  Among the risk factors that you should consider are the following:


We face a higher risk of failure because we cannot accurately forecast our future revenues and operating results.


The rapidly changing nature of the markets in which we compete makes it difficult to accurately forecast our revenues and operating results.  Furthermore, we expect our revenues and operating results to fluctuate in the future due to a number of factors, including the following:


the timing of sales of our products and services;

the timing of product implementation, particularly large design projects;

unexpected delays in introducing new products and services;

increased expenses, whether related to sales and marketing, product development, or administration;

the mix of product license and services revenue; and

costs related to possible acquisitions of technology or businesses.


We face a higher risk of failure because the podcasting media service businesses are in their infancy.


We face the difficulties frequently encountered by companies in the early stage of development in new and evolving markets.  These potential difficulties include the following:


substantial delays and expenses related to testing and developing of our new products;

successfully establishing podcasting as a large-scale advertising medium;

marketing and distribution problems with new and existing products and technologies;

we are at the mercy of App Store providers approval process who control if we can sell our App through their      stores;

competition from larger and more established companies;

delays in reaching our marketing goals;

difficulty in recruiting qualified employees for management and other positions;

our lack of sufficient customers, revenues and cash flow; and



5




our limited financial resources.


We may continue to face these and other difficulties in the future.  Some of these problems may be beyond our control.  If we are unable to successfully address them, our business will suffer.


If we do not achieve the brand recognition necessary to succeed in the podcasting and media services markets, we may not be able to compete.


We must build our Wizzard brand to gain market acceptance for our podcasting services, and media services and tools. We believe that our long-term success will require that we obtain significant market share for our products and services before other competitors enter the market. We must spend large amounts on product development, strategic relationships and marketing initiatives in order to establish brand awareness.  We cannot be certain that we will have enough resources to build our brand and to obtain commercial acceptance of our products and services.  If we do not gain market acceptance for our podcasting services, as a large-scale advertising medium, and related media services, we may not be able to compete effectively.


We are exposed to the business risks inherent in the podcasting industry.


With our recent entry into the podcasting industry, we have exposed our company to the risks of entities operating within that industry.  The podcasting industry is in its infancy and our operations in this area may prove to be unprofitable.


Our expansion plans may not be cost-effective.


We have pursued, and may continue to pursue, strategic alliances with new or complementary businesses in an effort to enter into new business areas, diversify our sources of revenue and expand our products and services.  If we pursue strategic alliances with new or complementary businesses, we may not be able to expand our product or service offerings and related operations in a cost-effective or timely way. We may experience increased costs, delays and diversions of management's attention when beginning any new businesses or services.  Also, any new business or service that users do not favorably receive could damage our reputation and brand name in the market place.  We also cannot be certain that we will obtain enough revenues from any expanded products or services to offset related costs.  Any expansion of our operations may require additional expenses.  These efforts may strain our management, financial and operational resources.


Our limited resources may make it harder for us to manage growth.


We have a limited basis upon which to evaluate our systems' ability to handle controlled or full commercial availability of our products and services.  We anticipate that we will expand our operations significantly in the near future, and we will have to expand further to address the anticipated growth in our user base and market opportunities.  To manage the expected growth of operations and personnel, we will need to improve existing systems, and implement new systems, procedures and controls.  In addition, we will need to expand, train and manage an increasing employee base.  We will also need to expand our finance, administrative and operations staff.  We may not be able to effectively manage this growth.  Our planned expansion in the near future will place a significant strain on our managerial, operational and financial resources. Our planned personnel, systems, procedures and controls may be inadequate to support our future operations.  If we cannot manage growth effectively or if we experience disruptions during our expansion, the expansion may not be cost-effective.


If we cannot compete successfully, we may have to go out of business.


The market for computer software, and specifically speech recognition technology products and services is highly competitive.  Current competitors include Nuance, Loquendo and Fonix.  In addition, competitors may be developing speech recognition products and services that we may not be aware of.  Many of our current and potential competitors have much greater financial, technical, marketing, distribution and other resources.  They also have greater name recognition and market presence, longer operating histories and lower cost structures than we have.  As a result, they may be able to adapt more quickly to new or emerging technologies and changes in customer requirements.  Our ability to compete successfully in the rapidly evolving speech recognition market will depend upon certain factors, many of which are beyond our control and that may affect our ability to compete successfully.




6




We may also face competition from a number of indirect competitors that specialize in electronic commerce and other companies with substantial customer bases in the computer field and other technical fields. Additionally, companies that control access to transactions through a network or Web browser could promote our competitors or charge us a substantial fee for similar access or promotion.  Our competitors may also be acquired by, receive investments from or enter into other commercial relationships with larger, better-established and better-financed companies as use of speech recognition products and services increases.


We may be unable to compete successfully against current and potential competitors, and the competitive pressures we face could cause our business to fail.


Our business would be seriously impaired if our rights in our technology were compromised in any way.


Wizzard licenses the speech recognition engines upon which its products operate from AT&T.  We rely on non-disclosure, confidentiality and non-competition agreements with our employees to protect many of our rights in our technology.  If our employees breach these agreements, we may incur significant expenses to enforce our contractual restrictions and protect our rights.  Management believes that Wizzard has proprietary rights to products, including copyright and trademark protection that will discourage others from replicating these products.  However, we have no opinions from independent intellectual property counsel that the copyrights and trademarks are valid or, if valid, that their issuance, together with such other proprietary rights that we own will be sufficient to protect us from those who would try to capitalize on our success through imitation.  Our business plan and strategy are to commercialize various speech recognition application technologies.  Termination of our relationship by our licensor of speech recognition engines for any reason, or unauthorized disclosure of our application technologies to third parties, would cause serious harm to our business, financial position and results of operations.


We have a history of losses and we may never achieve profitability.


Wizzard's net loss available to common stockholders was $9,979,883, or $1.31 per share and $4,110,459, or $0.76 per share, for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.  Because we need to establish our brand and services, we expect to incur increasing sales and marketing, product development and administrative expenses, and as a result, we will need to generate significant revenues to achieve and maintain profitability.  We cannot assure you that we will ever be able to operate profitably.


Any unintentional infringement on the proprietary rights of others could be expensive and could cut our revenues.


Many software companies bring lawsuits alleging violation of intellectual property rights.  In addition, a large number of patents have been awarded in the voice-recognition area.  Although we do not believe that we are infringing any patent rights, patent holders may claim that we are doing so.  Any such claim would likely be time-consuming and expensive to defend, particularly if we are unsuccessful, and could prevent us from selling products or services. We may also be forced to enter into costly and burdensome royalty and licensing agreements.


If we do not respond effectively to technological change, our products and services could become obsolete.


The development of our products and services and other technology entails significant technical and business risks.  To remain competitive, we must continue to improve our products' responsiveness, functionality and features.


High technology industries are characterized by:


rapid technological change;

changes in user and customer requirements and preferences;

frequent new product and services introductions embodying new technologies; and

the emergence of new industry standards and practices.


The evolving nature of the Internet could render our existing technology and systems obsolete.  Our success will depend, in part, on our ability to:


license or acquire leading technologies useful in our business;



7




develop new services and technologies that address our users' increasingly sophisticated and varied needs; and

respond to technological advances and emerging industry and regulatory standards and practices in a cost-effective and timely way.


Future advances in technology may not be beneficial to, or compatible with, our business. Furthermore, we may not use new technologies effectively or adapt our technology and systems to user requirements or emerging industry standards in a timely way.  In order to stay technologically competitive, we may have to spend large amounts of money and time.  If we do not adapt to changing market conditions or user requirements in a timely way, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be seriously harmed.


If we fail to develop new products, or if we incur unexpected expenses or delays in product development, we may lose our competitive position.


Although we currently have fully developed products available for sale, we are also developing various products and technologies that we will rely on to remain competitive.  Due to the risks in developing new products and technologies, limited financing, competition, obsolescence, loss of key personnel and other factors, we may fail to develop these technologies and products, or we may experience lengthy and costly delays in doing so. Although we may be able to license some of our technologies in their current stage of development, we cannot assure you that we will be able to do so.


We could incur significant expenses if our technologies and products contain defects.


Voice-recognition products are not currently accurate in every instance, and may never be.  We could inadvertently release products and technologies that contain defects.  Third-party technology that we include in our products could contain defects.  Even though our licensing agreement with users contains language that is intended to protect us from liability for defects, clients who are not satisfied with our products or services could bring claims against us for substantial damages. These claims could cause us to incur significant legal expenses and, if successful, could result in the claimants being awarded significant damages.


The software for hosting podcasts, inserting ads into the content we host and serving podcast with advertisement is in its infancy and therefore has to be developed.  Any release of software with inadvertent defects could cause significant increases in the expense for delivery of the podcast or loss of revenue if we are unsuccessful in delivering the podcast with an advertisement inserted.


Changes in the app approval policies of an App Store could have an adverse effect on the business plans of Wizzard Media, including revenues.


Our Podcast Apps for sale in the most popular App Stores including Apple, Amazon and Google are subject to approval by each marketplace.  Throughout the submission process, some Apps have not been approved for sale in the marketplaces and may not be approved in the future because they do not comply with App Store Review Guidelines.


The App stores with which Wizzard currently sells its Apps, (Apple App Store, Google Marketplace and Amazon Appstore), have complete control over the approval of each App submitted to their store.  The policies for the App approval process are normally very broad, and subject to interpretation and frequent changes by each App store.  

In the past, Wizzard has received approval for Apps with streaming video and then subsequently has had Apps rejected for including streaming video.   On the other hand, some App Stores have approved Apps with streaming video without any hesitation.


Apple has rejected individual podcast Apps because they do not want thousands of individual podcast Apps in the App store under one developer account, and then subsequently approved podcast Apps when submitted under a podcast producer’s own developer account.  If Apple were to enforce their policy to disallow podcast Apps to be accepted under Wizzard’s developer account or under a podcaster’s individual developer account, it could have an adverse impact on future business plans of Wizzard Media, including revenues.


The approval of Apps, which cannot be guaranteed, is subject to the App Stores’ review personnel, their Management and the overall store and company policy, which are subject to change at any time.  The change in policy and rejection of



8




Apps for approval by any one or all of the App Stores could have an adverse impact on future business plans of Wizzard Media, including revenues.


Any changes in reimbursement levels under Medicare, Medicaid or insurance reimbursement programs and any changes in applicable government regulations could have a material adverse effect on Wizzard's net revenues.


As managed care assumes an increasingly significant role in markets in which Wizzard operates, Wizzard's success will, in part, depend on retaining and obtaining managed care contracts. There can be no assurance that we will retain or continue to obtain such managed care contracts. In addition, reimbursement rates under managed care contracts are likely to continue experiencing downward pressure as a result of payers' efforts to contain or reduce the costs of health care by increasing case management review of services and negotiating reduced contract pricing. Therefore, even if we are successful in retaining and obtaining managed care contracts, unless we also decrease our cost for providing services and increases higher margin services, we will experience declining profit margins.


Wizzard is subject to extensive and frequently changing federal, state and local regulation. In addition, new laws and regulations are adopted periodically to regulate new and existing products and services in the health care industry. Changes in laws or regulations or new interpretations of existing laws or regulations can have a dramatic effect on operating methods, costs and reimbursement amounts provided by government and other third-party payers. Federal laws governing our activities include regulations related to Medicare reimbursement and certification and certain financial relationships with physicians and other health care providers. Although Wizzard intends to comply with all applicable fraud and abuse laws, there can be no assurance that administrative or judicial interpretation of existing laws or regulations or enactments of new laws or regulations will not have a material adverse effect on its business. Wizzard is subject to state laws governing Medicaid, professional training, licensure, financial relationships with physicians and the dispensing and storage of pharmaceuticals. The facilities operated by Wizzard must comply with all applicable laws, regulations and licensing standards. In addition, many of our employees must maintain licenses to provide some of the services that we offer.  There can be no assurance that federal, state or local governments will not change existing standards or impose additional standards. Any failure to comply with existing or future standards could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition or prospects.


If we lose our key personnel or are unable to hire additional personnel, we will have trouble growing our business.


We depend to a large extent on the abilities of our key management and technical personnel, in particular Christopher J. Spencer, our Chief Executive Officer and President.  The loss of any key employee or our inability to attract or retain other qualified employees could seriously impair our results of operations and financial condition.


Our future success depends on our ability to attract, retain and motivate highly skilled technical, marketing, management, accounting and administrative personnel.  We plan to hire additional personnel in all areas of our business as we grow. Competition for qualified personnel is intense.  As a result, we may be unable to attract and retain qualified personnel.  We may also be unable to retain the employees that we currently employ or to attract additional technical personnel.  The failure to retain and attract the necessary personnel could seriously harm our business, financial condition and results of operations.


System and online security failures could harm our business and operating results.


The operation of our business depends on the efficient and uninterrupted operation of our computer and communications hardware systems.  Our systems and operations are vulnerable to damage or interruption from many sources, including fire, flood, power loss, telecommunications failure, break-ins, earthquakes and similar events.  Our servers are also vulnerable to computer viruses, physical or electronic break-ins and similar disruptions. Any substantial interruptions in the future could result in the loss of data and could destroy our ability to generate revenues from operations.


The secure transmission of confidential information over public networks is a significant barrier to electronic commerce and communications.  Anyone who can circumvent our security measures could misappropriate confidential information or cause interruptions in our operations. We may have to spend large amounts of money and other resources to protect against potential security breaches or to alleviate problems caused by any breach.




9




Our operating results could be impaired if we become subject to burdensome government regulation and legal uncertainties.


We are not currently subject to direct regulation by any domestic or foreign governmental agency, other than regulations applicable to businesses generally.  However, due to the increasing popularity and use of the Internet, it is possible that a number of laws and regulations may be adopted with respect to the Internet, relating to:


user privacy;

pricing;

content;

copyrights;

distribution; and

characteristics and quality of products and services.


The adoption of any additional laws or regulations may decrease the expansion of the Internet.  A decline in the growth of the Internet could decrease demand for our products and services and increase our cost of doing business.  Moreover, the applicability of existing laws to the Internet is uncertain with regard to many issues, including property ownership, export of specialized technology, libel and personal privacy.  Our business, financial condition and results of operations could be seriously harmed by any new legislation or regulation.  The application of laws and regulations from jurisdictions whose laws do not currently apply to our business, or the application of existing laws and regulations to the Internet and other online services could also harm our business.


We plan to offer our speech recognition products over the Internet in multiple states and foreign countries. These jurisdictions may claim that we are required to qualify to do business as a foreign corporation in each state or foreign country. Our failure to qualify as a foreign corporation in a jurisdiction where we are required to do so could subject us to taxes and penalties.  Other states and foreign countries may also attempt to regulate our business or prosecute us for violations of their laws.  Further, we might unintentionally violate the laws of foreign jurisdictions and those laws may be modified and new laws may be enacted in the future.


There Are Substantial Risks Related to Our Common Stock and Management's Percentage of Ownership of Our Common Stock


Due to the instability in our common stock price, you may not be able to sell your shares at a profit.


The public market for our common stock is limited and volatile.  As with the market for many other companies in new and emerging industries, any market price for our shares is likely to continue to be very volatile.  In addition, the other risk factors disclosed in this Form 10-K may significantly affect our stock price.  The historical volatility of our stock price may make it more difficult for you to resell shares when you want at prices you find attractive.


In addition, the stock market in general and the market for Internet and technology companies in particular, have experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations that have often been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of these companies.  These broad market and industry factors may reduce our stock price, regardless of our operating performance.


Because our common stock is "penny stock," you may have greater difficulty selling your shares.


Our common stock is “penny stock” as defined in Rule 3a51-1 of the Securities and Exchange Commission.  Section 15(g) of the Exchange Act and Rule 15g-2 of the Securities and Exchange Commission require broker/dealers dealing in penny stocks to provide potential investors with a document disclosing the risks of penny stocks and to obtain a manually signed and dated written receipt of the document before making any transaction in a penny stock for the investor's account.  In addition, Rule 15g-9 of the Securities and Exchange Commission requires broker/dealers in penny stocks to approve the account of any investor for transactions in these stocks before selling any penny stock to that investor.  Compliance with these requirements may make it harder for our selling stockholders and other stockholders to resell their shares.




10




The sale of already outstanding shares of our common stock could hurt our common stock market price.


The number of our shares available for resale in the public market may exceed the number of shares that purchasers wish to buy.  This imbalance may place downward pressure on our stock price.


Approximately 7,870,805 shares of our common stock are presently publicly traded.  This number could be increased by the 497,738 shares underlying outstanding warrants.  This potential increase in the number of shares that may be available for public trading from 7,870,805 shares to 8,368,543 shares may dramatically reduce the price of our common stock on the basis of supply and demand alone.  In addition, a significant number of our other currently outstanding shares are eligible for public resale under Rule 144 of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and sales of these shares may also place downward pressure on our stock price.  


Item 1B.  Unresolved Staff Comments.


 Not applicable to smaller reporting companies.


Item 2.  Properties.


Wizzard's corporate offices are located at 5001 Baum Blvd., Suite 770, Pittsburgh, PA 15213.  They consist of approximately 3,100 square feet of space, which is rented for $4,446 per month.  The lease is currently on a month to month basis.  Wizzard continues to maintain a sound business relationship with the landlord.  Even though each party may exit the lease with a 30 day written notice, Management does not foresee a significant risk, especially with the current state of the economy.  Wizzard also maintains offices in Casper, Wyoming and Billings, Montana for our Interim Healthcare operation, which are rented for $4,750 and $1,406 per month, respectively.  The Casper lease ends June 2018, and the Billings location entered a 3 year lease agreement beginning March 1, 2011.  


Item 3.  Legal Proceedings.


Wizzard is involved in routine legal and administrative proceedings and claims of various types.  We have no material pending legal or administrative proceedings, other than as discussed below or ordinary routine litigation incidental to our business, to which we or any of our subsidiaries are a party or of which any property is the subject.  While any proceeding or claim contains an element of uncertainty, management does not expect that any such proceeding or claim will have a material adverse effect on our results of operations or financial position.


Item 4.  Mine Safety Disclosures.


None; not applicable.


PART II


Item 5.  Market for Registrant’s Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities.


As of March 6, 2012, 8,163,790 shares of our common stock were outstanding and the last reported sales price for our common stock on the NYSE Amex was $2.10 per share.  We have approximately 7,000 stockholders. This figure includes an indeterminate number of stockholders who hold their shares in “street name”.


Our common stock began trading on the NYSE Amex under the symbol “WZE” on February 7, 2008.  Prior to that time our common stock traded on the OTC Bulletin Board of FINRA (formerly, the “NASD”) under the symbol "WIZD."  We cannot guarantee that the present market for our common stock will continue or be maintained.

Management believes that the offer and sale of these securities was exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Act and Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated thereunder, due to the limited number of recipients and the Company’s reasonable belief of their status as accredited or sophisticated investors.

Item 7.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.


The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the information set forth under the caption entitled “Item 6. Selected Financial Data” and the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in this Form 10-K.


Safe Harbor Statement.


Statements made in this Form 10-K which are not purely historical are forward-looking statements with respect to the goals, plan objectives, intentions, expectations, financial condition, results of operations, future performance and business of Wizzard, including, without limitation, (i) our ability to gain a larger share of the podcasting, home healthcare and speech recognition software industries, our ability to continue to develop products acceptable to that industry, our ability to retain our business relationships, and our ability to raise capital and the growth of the speech recognition software industry, and (ii) statements preceded by, followed by or that include the words "may", "would", "could", "should", "expects", "projects", "anticipates", "believes", "estimates", "plans", "intends", "targets" or similar expressions.


Forward-looking statements involve inherent risks and uncertainties, and important factors (many of which are beyond Wizzard's control) that could cause actual results to differ materially from those set forth in the forward-looking statements, including the following, in addition to those contained in our reports on file with the SEC: general economic or industry conditions, nationally and/or in the communities in which Wizzard conducts business, changes in the interest rate environment, legislation or regulatory requirements, conditions of the securities markets, changes in the  industries in which we operate, the development of products that may be superior to the products offered by Wizzard, demand for financial services, competition, changes in the quality or composition of Wizzard's products, our ability to develop new products, our ability to raise capital, changes in accounting principles, policies or guidelines, financial or political instability, acts of war or terrorism, other economic, competitive, governmental, regulatory and technical factors affecting Wizzard's operations, products, services and prices.


Accordingly, results actually achieved may differ materially from expected results in these statements.  Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made.  Wizzard does not undertake, and specifically disclaims, any obligation to update any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances occurring after the date of such statements.


Company Overview


Below is an update of our entire business, from our most recent entry into podcasting and apps, where we expect most of our future growth to occur, to our legacy businesses of offering core speech engine tools for software developers and technology solutions for the healthcare industry.  Currently, our healthcare operations make up 52% of our revenue, but we expect our Media business to become our largest revenue generator at some point in the near future, and provide the largest revenue growth and profits.  We believe this due to the size of our podcast operations, our market leadership position, our substantial presence in iTunes and the potential monetization of the content we distribute through our publishing platform, sale of Apps and paid subscriptions for content.  The network growth of our media operation has occurred faster than initially expected and it is Management’s opinion that we are still in the early stages of growth for this industry as we are seeing the flow of quality content coming to the Internet increase at a rapid pace and advertisers and audiences showing increased interest in the medium.  Wizzard believes that our network and relevance in our industry will continue to grow and that Wizzard is positioned to be one of the leading companies in the podcast monetization business.  


1.     WIZZARD MEDIA


Wizzard Media is the four-year old division for our digital media and entertainment business.  Wizzard Media is currently the industry’s largest network of independent and professional digital media publishers utilizing RSS (podcasting) as a distribution method for episodic, audio and video shows.  The Wizzard Media Network received over 450 million download requests for shows in 2006, 1 billion download requests in 2007, 1.2 billion download requests in 2008, 1.4 billion download requests in 2009,  1.6 billion in 2010 and 1.3 billion in 2011 to approximately 50 million total audience members throughout the year.  Wizzard's publishing platform hosts 12,400 shows in 2011. Management believes that Wizzard Media offers the best podcast publishing platform in the industry and is one of only a few podcast publishing platforms that are able to charge publishers for use of the service.  The majority of podcast



14




publishing platforms offer their service for free, in hopes of making money exclusively from advertising sales.  Management believes that our ability to charge for the services we provide is a testament to the quality of service.  The total number of episodes on the Wizzard Network totaled 979,755 in 2011, all of which are available for immediate distribution.  With the continuing success of iPods, iPhones, iPads, Android’s mobile phones, Blackberry’s smartphones, we expect the number of content publishers using our service and the number of consumers watching the shows to continue to grow rapidly on an annual basis.  Wizzard's LibsynPRO Enterprise service had 78 network publishers in 2011.  As Wizzard Media derives a portion of its revenues through data transfer from PRO customers, launching a new, feature rich version of the PRO publishing platform provides Management with the tools to grow the number of PRO publishers and thereby revenues associated with our data transfer business.  Throughout 2011, revenue from data transfer totaled $291,333.


WIZZARD MEDIA – PUBLISHING SERVICES


     Hosting, Distribution Network, Content, Platform Development


In 2011 the Wizzard Media Network received approximately 1.3 billion download requests for podcast episodes vs. 1.6 billion download requests in 2010, from a wide variety of distribution outlets to which Wizzard syndicates content.  The Wizzard Media network received over 3.44 million requests for shows per day throughout 2011.  Our network reaches over 20 million people around the world, creating what Management believes is a strong media asset and a very compelling platform for advertisers as well as smartphone App sales.  Download requests are calculated by counting the number of shows requested for download by audience members.  Wizzard works to generate profits by inserting advertisements in the shows in partnership with the show’s publishers, charging for the use of our publishing platform and through the sale of Apps.  As the online digital media industry is in the emerging stages, the majority of these shows are distributed without advertising and the total download requests listed above are provided to give an understanding of the potential size of advertising inventory available for Wizzard’s third party advertising partners and its in-house advertising sales team to fill.  


Currently, Wizzard Media distributes digital shows for our producers to a variety of web portals and content aggregators (approximately 27 in all), for both download and video streaming.  Approximately 70% of the shows Wizzard distribute reach audiences using Apple’s iTunes platform which includes iTunes on the computer, iPods, iPads, iPhones and Apple TV.  It is Management’s opinion that the Wizzard Media Network’s substantial presence in the iTunes Podcast Store is one of the Company’s most valuable assets as consumers using iTunes are early adopters and spend money regularly on digital media. We believe this provides Wizzard with a unique offering for advertisers seeking that type of consumer and provides Wizzard with monetization opportunities for its podcast publishers through the sale of individual and network wide Apps.

Wizzard Media's technical development team continues to make significant accomplishments in terms of maintaining and expanding our publishing platform.  This has maintained strong availability for producers and consumers as our user base continues to build and grow.

 

During the fourth quarter the team focused on developing a new internally branded paywall system with the ability to lock-down media serving. This system will allow top tier producers to sell and serve premium content.  The team also rolled out a new billing system and customer sign up system for its indie network, bringing higher reliability, better tracking and a simpler user experience for producers. On the iOS front, the team dramatically ramped up the Podcast Box and also introduced the Podcast.com apps to the App Store.  In the first stage of its social media integration the team added On-Publish support for Facebook and Twitter, first as a beta and then into general availability.  This resulted in 3,000 combined posts to Facebook and Twitter from Libsyn during the fourth quarter. Lastly the team worked on prototypes of an HTML5 player to replace the flash based Wizzard Player and a new Directory web app which will serve as the basis for Wizzard's Facebook integration in quarter 1 of 2012.


We migrated Libsyn Indie users to the Libsyn3 platform throughout 2010.  The migration was completed in early 2011 and represents a significant milestone in the upgrade of the features offered to our Producers.  In migrating the 5 year old Libsyn Indie customers to the new Libsyn3 platform we were able to ‘clean up’ many non paying, in-active accounts during 2011.  As a result, we now have 10,883 active podcast accounts.  While this number is down, the number does not represent a drop in paying customers or revenue; it is solely a more accurate count of our active accounts.

WIZZARD MEDIA - APPS


Apps are small software applications that users can purchase and download to their iPhone and iPod Touch mobile devices with relative ease.  During 2011, there were over 500,000 Apps in the App Store that have been downloaded by consumers over 25 billion times.  App categories include video games, sports, productivity, entertainment, education and health & fitness.  Some of these Apps are free, while others have to be purchased.  These Apps range in price from $.99 to $100.00, with the average price under $4.99.  During 2011, Wizzard continue its push on the Apps market using its podcast network and active podcasters to promote the Apps to consumers.  Apple, Amazon and Google retain 30% of all App sales to cover the cost of running the App Store and App owners/developers receive 70% of the sales proceeds.  Wizzard believes it can continue to generate revenue through the iTunes Store, Google Market Place and Amazon App Store are briefly outlined below.  


Sale of Podcast Apps


Wizzard created Apps that work on the iPhone and Android platforms and are currently for sale in the iTunes App Store, and the Amazon App Store. Wizzard currently has approximately 2,111 Apps for sale.  Podcasters then market their very own App to their show’s audience, many of whom use iPhones, iPods and Android phones.  Management believes podcasters can be very successful marketing Apps to their audience, as they know their audience better than anyone else and are great influencers of their audience.  The reasons Management believes an audience member would want to purchase Apps are: 1) Easier, faster access to the content.  2) Bonus content exclusively for App users. 3) Inexpensive and easy way to support their favorite podcasts.  4) Social communication features.


Wizzard now offers this App as a free monetizational tool to podcasters on the Wizzard Network as long as they have a qualifying monthly account.  Currently, there are approximately 10,883 shows on the Wizzard Network and approximately 20 million audience members who consume podcasts.  Wizzard submits each App for approval, which is not guaranteed and is based on the respective terms of service and approval process of the App Store, and manages the collecting of the revenue and distribution of the podcaster’s share of the revenues.  Wizzard expects to retain approximately 35% of the sale price that ranges from $.99 to $4.99 in most cases.  Wizzard has submitted over 2,800 podcast Apps and has received approval for 2,111 Apps.  These Apps are currently being sold around the world via Apple’s App Store and the Amazon App Store. Throughout 2011, revenue from App sales totaled $353,971.


Wizzard developed a “Network App” which allows for hundreds of podcast Apps, inside one fully functional App.  This is very similar to Amazon’s Kindle App that includes tens of thousands of books inside one App.  This Network App, if accepted into the various App stores, allows us to: 1) continue our business plan to offer App monetization tools to all producers in a streamlined, efficient process; 2) comply with the continually evolving and sometimes inconsistent App approval standards and their desire not to have ‘cookie-cutter’ Apps for all 250,000 podcasts in iTunes in the App Store causing approval delays and rejections; 3) have more control over the actual marketing of the podcast Apps through expanded distribution of the Network App and cross promotional opportunities; 4) focus more time and attention on podcast shows with larger audiences that sell more apps than the smaller podcast shows.  As a result of this change in ‘go to market’ strategy for iPhone Apps, Wizzard believes it could enhance revenues going forward due to the fact that we will have more control over the marketing of, wider distribution and more opportunities to generate revenues with a Network App.  For example, we could include widespread targeted promotions for Groupon or provide offers allowing people to earn Facebook credits.  For our Amazon App products, we plan to continue to create individual Apps for podcasts on our network and off network, focusing on podcasts with the largest audiences.  As the Android Market continues to evolve, we may consider an option to create a Network App as the business model dictates.


Sale of Podcast Subscriptions and Episodes Via Custom Podcast Apps


Once a podcaster has successfully marketed an App to its audience and has created a significant install base, Management believes that from time to time the podcaster can offer new content on a subscription basis or release a special episode, in addition to its normal podcast episodes, and charge a nominal fee ($1 - $3) for that episode to its audience.  By having a successful, extremely easy to use micropayment platform in iTunes/iPhone/iPod Touch, Android and Amazon, Management believes that podcast audiences will be willing to pay a nominal fee ($1.99), from time to time, for special episodes of their favorite podcast and even sign up for inexpensive subscriptions ($.99 a month; $8.99 for 12 months) of new content.  Wizzard earns a portion of the subscription and episode revenue for administering the App account and delivering the content to the consumer.

 WIZZARD MEDIA - ADVERTISING


In 2011, Wizzard executed multiple national brand advertising campaigns for companies including Audible and Lego.  These campaigns run across multiple shows, with different advertisers, resulting in $264,355 in 2011 advertising revenue.


Wizzard’s Alchemy system is able to handle the insertion of advertisements into audio and video shows with geographical targeting capabilities, which was used for multiple advertising campaigns throughout 2011.  Using the system, the Wizzard Media Network had the capability to deliver 4,006,081,205 advertisements in 2011 if 2.5 advertisements were placed in every podcast request downloaded from the network.  In order to increase the percentage of filled advertising inventory we must continue to execute on our advertising sales strategy, integrate third party ad networks and portals and create relationships with more advertising agencies and their clients.  The advertising capabilities number mentioned above and the tables for download inventory (below) demonstrates to advertisers the reach of the Wizzard Media Advertising Network as most advertisers want to see the opportunity for large advertising campaigns when considering a new medium for their marketing plans.  Management believes that most advertisers prefer to deal with a few companies with large reach rather than many companies with smaller reach as it makes their advertising ‘buys’ and tracking easier to monitor.


Client results of our largest advertising execution to date were excellent in Management's opinion and we expect more buys from the client in the future. We have now had multiple advertisers renew campaigns with Wizzard including one advertiser that is on its 48th campaign, demonstrating what Management believes is excellent back-end ad operational customer service on Wizzard's part and a satisfactory ROI for our clients.  


Wizzard Media currently has 22 distinct ad categories we take to market.  As the number of publishers joining Wizzard’s Advertising Network grows, so does the available advertising inventory for Wizzard’s advertising sales team to sell.

December and January are historically strong months for downloads. June, July and August are historically slower months for downloads.  Management believes that the above numbers demonstrate to advertisers the reach of the Wizzard Media network as most advertisers want to see the opportunity for large advertising campaigns.  Management believes that most advertisers prefer to deal with a few companies with large reach rather than many companies with smaller reach as it makes their advertising ‘buys’ and tracking easier to monitor.  Formula: Nielsen certified downloads x 2.5 (to take into account pre-roll and post-roll position, and 50% of all downloads capable of handling 1 mid-roll ad).  While there can be no future pricing guarantees, the industry is currently charging, and plans to continue to charge, between $.01 and $.005 per downloaded ad.  The advertisements tend to be no longer than 15 to 30 seconds and several ads can be inserted in one twenty-minute episode.

3.   WIZZARD HEALTHCARE


Based in Casper, Wyoming and Billings, Montana, Interim Health Care of Wyoming has been serving its community for 17 years and is part of the fast growing home health segment of the healthcare industry, providing a wide range of visiting nurse services to the elderly, wounded and sick. It is one of the 300 home health agencies that comprise Interim Health Care, the largest home healthcare franchise in the United States.  Wizzard currently derives the bulk of its revenues, 52%, from its home healthcare and staffing operations.


As the census (number of patients utilizing facilities) continues to be low in the hospital, we are taking the necessary steps to position ourselves in preparation of an upturn in the census for these facilities so when the economy recovers the result is an increase in the use of our services.  At the same time our home healthcare service continued to be strong and provided a consistent stream of revenue through 2011.  While we have not yet returned to the levels achieved prior to the down turn in the economy, we have seen an increase in revenue for staffing services in Billings, Montana, and an increase in



18




revenue over the prior year within our Home Healthcare segment.  Our home healthcare services continued to be strong and provided a consistent stream of revenue during 2011.


In 2012, as with most businesses in today’s economy, we are approaching our healthcare business with conservative optimism.  As for our operations in Billings, Montana and its focus on the medical staffing industry, we anticipate a possible modest increase in the demand for our medical staffing services during the upcoming year.  As such, we will continue to evaluate opportunities to expand the realm of services we offer.  Promotional activities are being managed as the offices experience fluctuations in the day-to-day operations and as we embark on new business opportunities.  


Our home healthcare business continues to be a substantial revenue generator for our Company as our country's population ages and new methods of patient data capture become critical components for delivering high quality, affordable healthcare services in a patient's home.  Although this has been a gradual process, we believe that we continue to build a solid business that will offer a complimentary package of new technology and traditional services.


Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates


Revenue Recognition - Revenue is recognized when earned. The Company's revenue recognition policies are in compliance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 605, 985 Software — Revenue Recognition and the Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101 and 104.


The Company recognizes revenue from providing podcast hosting services when the services are provided and the sale of apps when collection is received.   The Company recognizes revenue from the providing of healthcare services when the services are provided and collection is probable.  The Company sells packaged and custom software products and related speech recognition product development consulting.  Software product revenues are recognized upon shipment of the software product only if no significant Company obligations remain, the fee is fixed or determinable, and collection is received or the resulting receivable is deemed probable. Revenue from package software products are recorded when the payment has been received and the software has been shipped.  Revenue is recognized, net of discount and allowances, at the time of product shipment.  Revenue from non-recurring programming, engineering fees, consulting service, support arrangements and training programs are recognized when the services are provided.


Accounts Receivable – We evaluate the creditworthiness of our customers based on their financial information, if available, as well as information obtained from suppliers and past experiences with customers.  In some instances, we require new customers to make prepayments.  Accounts receivable consist of trade receivables arising in the normal course of business. Any allowance established is subject to judgment and estimates made by management.  The Company determines the allowance based on known troubled accounts, historical experience, and other currently available evidence. We established an allowance for doubtful accounts of $34,200 and $34,200 at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.


Goodwill and Definite-life intangible assets - The Company accounts for Goodwill and definite-life intangible assets in accordance with provisions of the Statement of Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 350, Intangibles, Goodwill and Other.  Goodwill and intangible assets acquired in a purchase business combination and determined to have an indefinite useful life are not amortized, but instead are tested for impairment at least annually in accordance with the provisions of Topic 350.  Impairment losses arising from this impairment test, if any, are included in operating expenses in the period of impairment.  Topic 350 requires that definite intangible assets with estimable useful lives be amortized over their respective estimated useful lives, and reviewed for impairment in accordance with Topic 360, criteria for recognition of an impairment of Long-Lived Assets.


Stock-based compensation - The Company accounts for options in accordance with the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) ASC Topic 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation.  For the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, the Company recorded stock-based employee compensation expense of  $92,888 and $52,164, respectively,  and stock –based compensation expense to employees and consultants of $61,869 and $103,555, respectively, for options that were issued and immediately exercised. The remaining estimated pretax amortization on unvested options will be recognized during 2012.  The plans are more fully described in Note 8 of our consolidated financial statements.

Estimating the fair value of options granted requires us to utilize valuation models and to establish several underlying assumptions. The fair value of option grants was estimated using the Black-Scholes option valuation model based on the following weighted average assumptions:


 

2011

 

2010

Dividend yield

0 %

 

0 %

Expected life

3 yrs

 

3 yrs

Expected volatility

100.7%

 

87.8%

Risk-free interest rate

1.09%

 

1.4%


The risk-free interest rate is the implied yield available for zero-coupon U.S. government issues with a remaining term equal to the expected life of the options.


The expected lives of the options are determined based on the Company’s expectations of individual option holders anticipated behavior and the term of the option.


Volatility is based upon price performance of the Company over an equivalent term of the issued options to determine potential volatility of the issued options.


Restatement - On February 23, 2012, the Company affected a 1 for 12 reverse stock-split.  All references to stock issuances and per share data have been reflected in these financial statements.

During 2011, Wizzard recorded revenues of $6,540,217, an increase of $1,000,095, or approximately 18%, from our revenues of $5,540,122 in 2010.  This increase was driven by our Media business and Home Healthcare segments.  The increase in home healthcare revenue was the result of the increased use of our services, especially a return to using temporary staffing during 2011.  The Media business saw significant increases in Hosting fees and App sales.  The increase in hosting fees was due to the increase in the number of producers using our services.  Our Software segment experienced a slight revenue increase of 3% from the previous year.


During 2011, cost of goods sold was $3,475,386, a decrease of $55,717, or approximately 2%, over the 2010 figure of $3,531,103.  This decrease was driven by reduced bandwidth cost throughout 2011 in our media business, however this was offset by an increase within our home healthcare segment, which was driven by the increase in sales of our services during 2011.  Wizzard generated a gross profit of $3,064,831 in 2011, versus a gross profit of $2,009,019 in 2010, an increase of 53%.

MANAGEMENT’S REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING


Board of Directors

WIZZARD SOFTWARE CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES


Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934). Our internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance to management and the Board of Directors regarding the preparation and fair presentation of published financial statements. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. Management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2011.  In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control — Integrated Framework. Based on our assessment, management believes that we maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2011.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT

REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM


Board of Directors

WIZZARD SOFTWARE CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania 15213


We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Wizzard Software Corporation and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.


We conducted our audits in accordance with standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement.  The company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, and audit of its internal controls over financial reporting for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010.  Our audit included consideration of internal controls over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the company’s internal controls over financial reporting for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements.  An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall consolidated financial statement presentation.  We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.


In our opinion, based on our audit, the consolidated financial statements audited by us present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Wizzard Software Corporation and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2011 and 2010 and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America.


The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern.  As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company has not yet established profitable operations and has incurred significant losses since its inception.  These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.  Management's plans in regards to these matters are also described in Note 2.  The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

WIZZARD SOFTWARE CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES


Organization - Wizzard Software Corporation ["Parent"], a Colorado corporation, was organized on July 1, 1998.  The Company operates in three segments, Software, Healthcare and Media Services.  The Software segment engages primarily in the development, sale, and service of custom and packaged computer software products. The Media Services provides podcast hosting, content management tools and advertising services.  The Healthcare segment operates primarily in the home healthcare and healthcare staffing services in Wyoming and Montana.  On September 8, 2005, Parent purchased all of the issued and outstanding shares of Interim Healthcare of Wyoming, Inc. ["Interim"], a Wyoming corporation, in a transaction accounted for as a purchase.  On February 27, 2007, Parent organized Wizzard Acquisition Corp., a Pennsylvania corporation, to acquire and dissolve into the operations of Webmayhem, Inc. [Libsyn], a Pennsylvania corporation, in a transaction accounted for as a purchase.  On April 3, 2007, Interim purchased the operations of Professional Personnel, Inc., d.b.a., Professional Nursing Personnel Pool [“PNPP”].


Consolidation - The financial statements presented reflect the accounts of Parent, Libsyn and Interim.  All significant inter-company transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.


Accounting 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, the disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Management made assumptions and estimates for determining reserve for accounts receivable, obsolete inventory and in determining the impairment of definite life intangible assets and goodwill. Actual results could differ from those estimated by management.


Reclassification – The financial statements for the period ended prior to December 31, 2011 have been reclassified to conform to the headings and classifications used in the December 31, 2011 financial statements.


Cash and Cash Equivalents – The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity date of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.  


Accounts Receivable - Accounts receivable consist of trade receivables arising in the normal course of business. At December 31, 2011 and 2010, the Company has an allowance for doubtful accounts of $34,200 which reflects the Company's best estimate of probable losses inherent in the accounts receivable balance. The Company determines the allowance based on known troubled accounts, historical experience, and other currently available evidence. During the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, the Company adjusted the allowance for bad debt by $0, $0 and $0, respectively.


Marketable Securities - The Company classifies its marketable securities as available-for-sale.  These marketable securities consist of corporate equity securities that are stated at market value.  Unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale securities are reflected as other comprehensive income (losses), net of tax, in stockholders' equity.  Realized gains and losses on all marketable securities are included in operations and are derived using the specific identification method for determining the cost of securities sold.  It is the Company's intent to maintain a liquid portfolio to take advantage of investment opportunities; therefore, all marketable securities are classified as current assets and available for sale.


Depreciation - Depreciation of property and equipment is provided on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives.


Goodwill and Definite-life intangible assets - The Company accounts for Goodwill and definite-life intangible assets in accordance with provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 350, Intangibles--Goodwill and Other.  Goodwill and intangible assets acquired in a purchase business combination and determined to have an indefinite useful life are not amortized, but instead are tested for impairment at least annually in accordance with the provisions of Topic 350.  Impairment losses arising from this impairment test, if any, are included in operating expenses in the period of impairment.  Topic 350 requires that definite intangible assets with estimable useful lives be amortized over their respective estimated useful lives, and reviewed for impairment in accordance with Topic 360, criteria for recognition of an impairment of Long-Lived Assets.

WIZZARD SOFTWARE CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued


Software Development Costs - We account for software development costs, including costs to develop software products or the software component of products to be marketed to external users, as well as software programs to be used solely to meet our internal needs in accordance with ASC 985 Software. We have determined that technological feasibility for our products to be marketed to external users was reached shortly before the release of those products. As a result, the development costs incurred after the establishment of technological feasibility and before the release of those products were not material, and accordingly, were expensed as incurred. In addition, costs incurred during the application development stage for software programs to be used solely to meet our internal needs were not material.


Loss Per Share - The Company computes loss per share in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 260, Earnings Per Share, which requires the Company to present basic earnings per share and diluted earnings per share when the effect is dilutive (see Note 11).


Income Taxes - The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 740, Accounting for Income Taxes.  This topic requires an asset and liability approach for accounting for income taxes (see Note 9).


Advertising Costs - Advertising costs are expensed as incurred and amounted to $85,039, $293,546and $162,518 for the period ending December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively.


Fair Value of Financial Instruments - The Company accounts for fair value measurements for financial assets and financial liabilities in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 820. The authoritative guidance, which, among other things, defines fair value, establishes a consistent framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure for each major asset and liability category measured at fair value on either a recurring or nonrecurring basis. Fair value is defined as the exit price, representing the amount that would either be received to sell an asset or be paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. As a basis for considering such assumptions, the guidance establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:

 

Level 1. Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

Level 2. Inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and

Level 3. Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.


Unless otherwise disclosed, the fair value of the Company’s financial instruments including cash, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses, accounts payable, accrued expenses and notes payable approximates their recorded values due to their short-term maturities.


 Revenue Recognition - Revenue is recognized when earned. The Company's revenue recognition policies are in compliance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 985-605, Software — Revenue Recognition.  The Company's revenue recognition policies are also in compliance with the Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101 and 104.

Recently Enacted Accounting Standards


In October 2009, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2009-13, Revenue Recognition (Topic 605): Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements—a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force (ASU 2009-13).  ASU 2009-13 addresses the accounting for sales arrangements that include multiple products or services by revising the criteria for when deliverables may be accounted for separately rather than as a combined unit.  Specifically, this guidance establishes a selling price hierarchy for determining the selling price of a deliverable, which is necessary to separately account for each product or service.  This hierarchy provides more options for establishing selling price than existing guidance.  ASU 2009-13 is required to be applied prospectively to new or materially modified revenue arrangements in fiscal periods beginning on or after June 15, 2010.  The Company adopted ASU 2009-13 and its application had no impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

In December 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2010-28, Intangibles — Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): When to Perform Step 2 of the Goodwill Impairment Test for Reporting Units with Zero or Negative Carrying Amounts (ASU 2010-28).  ASU 2010-28 modifies Step 1 of the goodwill impairment test for reporting units with zero or negative carrying amounts.  For those reporting units, an entity is required to perform Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test if it is more likely than not that a goodwill impairment exists.  In determining whether it is more likely than not that goodwill impairment exists, an entity should consider whether there are any adverse qualitative factors indicating that impairment may exist.  ASU 2010-28 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2010. 

 


Restatement - On February 23, 2012, the Company affected a 1 for 12 reverse stock-split.  All references to stock issuances and per share data have been reflected in these financial statements.


NOTE 2 – GOING CONCERN


The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles of the United States of America, which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern.  However, the Company has incurred significant losses and has not yet been successful in establishing profitable operations. These factors raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern. In this regard, management plans to mitigate this doubt by raising additional funds through debt and/or equity offerings and by substantially increasing sales. There is no assurance that the Company will be successful in achieving profitable operations.  The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

At December 31, 2011 and 2010, the total of all deferred tax assets was $17,640,240 and $16,334,047, respectively, and the total of the deferred tax liabilities/(assets) was ($841,717) and $1,509,212, respectively.  The amount of and ultimate realization of the benefits from the deferred tax assets for income tax purposes is dependent, in part, upon the tax laws in effect, the Company’s future earnings, and other future events, the effects of which cannot be determined. Because of the uncertainty surrounding the realization of the deferred tax assets the Company has established a valuation allowance of $18,481,957 and $14,824,835 for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010.  The change in the valuation allowance for the year ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 was $3,434,032 and $269,668, respectively.

Item 9.  Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure


 None; not applicable.


Item 9A. Controls and Procedures


Disclosure Controls and Procedures—We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information we are required to disclose in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), such as this Annual Report on Form 10-K, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by SEC rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information we are required to disclose in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and the Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.


Our management evaluated, with the participation of our CEO and CFO, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2011, pursuant to paragraph (b) of Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Exchange Act. This evaluation included a review of the controls’ objectives and design, the operation of the controls, and the effect of the controls on the information presented in this Annual Report. Our management, including the CEO and CFO, do not expect that disclosure controls can or will prevent or detect all errors and all fraud, if any. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide such reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives. Also, the projection of any evaluation of the disclosure controls and procedures to future periods is subject to the risk that the disclosure controls and procedures may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.


Based on their review and evaluation, and subject to the inherent limitations described above, our CEO and CFO have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) were effective as of December 31, 2011 at the above-described reasonable assurance level.


Internal Control over Financial Reporting—Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Our internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.


Because of inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Therefore, even internal controls determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. The effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting is subject to various inherent limitations, including cost limitations, judgments used in decision making, assumptions about the likelihood of future events, the possibility of human error, and the risk of fraud. The projection of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods is subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with policies may deteriorate. Because of these limitations, there can be no assurance that any system of internal control over financial reporting will be successful in preventing all errors or fraud or in making all material information known in a timely manner to the appropriate levels of management.


This annual report does not include an attestation report of the company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that exempt from this requirement issuers that are neither accelerated filers nor large accelerated filers.


There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended December 31, 2011 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.




52




Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting


Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934). Our internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance to management and the Board of Directors regarding the preparation and fair presentation of published financial statements. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. Management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2011.  In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control — Integrated Framework. Based on this assessment, management has determined that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2011, was effective.

 COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

 

Overview and General Philosophy

 

At Wizzard, our focus is to create value through advancements in the use of speech recognition software within our diverse businesses. We are also focused on growing our media business through hosting fees and monetization of unique users, and we continue to grow our home healthcare segment through new education programs and services for our clients. Our executive compensation program supports this goal of value creation by:

 

·

rewarding executives for obtaining performance milestones;

·

aligning the interests of executives with the interests of stockholders; and

·

attracting and retaining highly motivated and talented executives.



57





 Our compensation elements simultaneously fulfill one or more of these three objectives. The elements include:

 

·

base salary;

·

discretionary bonuses (in the form of cash, restricted stock, and stock options);

·

benefits programs.


The type and amount of compensation is determined considering current pay, competitive pay data from the external talent market and the opportunity for future pay. We combine compensation elements for each executive in a manner that will meet the performance, alignment and retention goals listed above as well as eliciting the best possible contribution from the executive.

Our executive compensation philosophy is built around two objectives: supporting stockholder value creation through, aligning the interests of executives with the interests of stockholders, and attracting and retaining highly motivated and talented executives.

 

Due to our diverse businesses, we have determined that no specific peer group is appropriate to use in defining market pay levels for our named executives. We therefore use general industry data of companies which are a similar size to us based on market capitalization to establish market pay levels.

  

Obtained Performance Milestones:

 

 

 

We construct our annual bonus opportunities to have appropriately aggressive targets that require significant achievement against performance milestones.

  

Aligned Interests:

 

 

 

Our base pay practices reduce fixed costs and emphasize performance-based incentive programs, which we believe are in the best interests of stockholders.

 

 

 

We base our annual bonus opportunities on performance milestones and value to the stockholder that focus executives on performance results that are of common interest to stockholders.

 

 

 

We award long-term equity incentive opportunities using stock options and restricted stock so that appreciating stock value is a significant factor in executive compensation.

  

Executive Retention:

 

 

 

We believe our use of lower base salary levels accompanied by an emphasis on incentive programs attracts executives that are appropriately aggressive, innovative, and willing to risk a larger share of their compensation on their own performance and the performance of the Company.

 

 

 

Discretionary bonuses allow us to adjust to unique market conditions in a timely fashion in order to retain key executives.

  

Compensation Administration

 

General Process.    Executive compensation decisions at Wizzard are the product of several factors, modified by judgment and discretion as necessary. The predominant factors include:

 

 

 

key performance measurements such as revenue, monthly download of content, and key business developments;

 

 

 

strategic initiatives such as acquisitions, and implementation of process improvements;

 



58







 

 

achievement of specific operational goals relating to the sphere of influence led by the executive;

 

 

compensation of other executives within the Company (to ensure internal equity); and

 

 

For the CEO, these factors are judged and compensation is recommended by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors and approved by the Board. For the other executive officers (including all of the named executives in the Summary Compensation Table), the factors are considered by the CEO, who recommends compensation levels. These judgments and recommendations are then reviewed and approved or revised by the Compensation Committee.

 

Generally, the Compensation Committee reviews and makes adjustments to base compensation once per year, effective at the beginning of each fiscal year (January 1). Annual incentives are typically paid within two months of the fiscal year end, usually in mid-February.  Equity grants are typically awarded in the spring of each year, in March or early April.

 

Role of Compensation Committee.    The Compensation Committee oversees the design, development and implementation of our compensation program. The Committee evaluates the performance of the CEO and determines CEO compensation consistent with the objectives of the compensation program. The Committee also approves all incentive compensation plans and approves or revises recommendations made by the CEO for compensation decisions affecting other executives. The Committee also approves all bonuses, awards and grants under all incentive plans.

 

Role of CEO.    Our CEO is responsible for the implementation and administration of our compensation program throughout the organization. The CEO evaluates the performance of executives and, consistent with the objectives of the compensation program, meets with the Compensation Committee to consider and recommend compensation programs, set and evaluate performance milestone, and make specific recommendations on the form and amount of compensation for named executives. 

 

Compensation Components

 

Short-Term Compensation.    Consistent with our stated compensation philosophy, our key metric for executive short-term compensation is annual total cash compensation. Discretionary bonuses provide significant upside potential which results in targeted annual total cash compensation.


Our performance for fiscal 2011 was well above targeted levels, even in a year that was very challenging. Company-wide, total revenue for the year was $6.5 million, an increase of 18% from the previous year.  In January, 2011, the Company closed a subscription agreement whereby six institutional investors invested a total of $3.1 million in cash in exchange for 1,166,672 shares of common stock and 440,268 warrants.


Base Salary.    We consider base salary a tool to provide executives with a reasonable base level of income relative to the scope of the positions they hold. Base salaries are established based on the level of responsibility for the position. With the exception of the CEO and named executives all base salaries are reviewed annually, and are adjusted from time to time to reflect changes in responsibility level.

 

In 2011, our named executives’ salaries range from $166,375 to $188,760.  In 2010, our named executives’ salaries ranged from $133,100 to $145,200.  There were no changes in salaries for senior executives during 2009 or 2010.


Annual Bonus.    Currently, there is not an established annual incentive bonus plan.

 

Discretionary Bonuses.    Because there is not an annual incentive plan, the Compensation Committee may determine a discretionary bonus is to be awarded to appropriately reward senior executives.  In these cases, discretionary bonuses are used to assure that executives are appropriately rewarded. The Committee determines discretionary bonuses for the CEO. The CEO recommends discretionary bonuses for all other named executives, which are then approved or adjusted by the Committee.

 

In fiscal year 2011, discretionary bonuses were awarded to the executive officers.

 



59




Our Compensation Committee believes that we have executed on our compensation philosophy given the level of Company performance in fiscal 2011.

 

Long-Term Incentive Compensation.   In 2011, we offered a limited group of employees, including all named executives, stock options.

 

In fiscal 2012, we plan to execute a long-term incentive design that will utilize stock options. For senior management, including named executives, the primary emphasis will be on stock option awards. This results primarily in senior management focus on stock price performance, directly aligning the interests of executives with the interests of stockholders. It also puts a higher percentage of long-term compensation at risk as the design delivers less immediate value to executives.

 

All stock-options granted to the named executives by the Company must have prior Compensation Committee approval. The exercise price for all stock-based awards coincides with the date the Committee approves the award grant. It is against Company policy to back-date stock-based awards or to try to time stock-based awards for any reason and we have never engaged in these practices.

 

Award Adjustment or Recovery.    We do not have a policy to recover or otherwise adjust payments made or awards earned as a result of changes in subsequent periods relating to performance measures upon which such payments or awards are based, sometimes referred to as a “clawback” policy. We have not required any named executive to return any award or repay any payment received in any fiscal year.

 

Tax Deductibility of Compensation.    Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, imposes a $1,000,000 limit on the amount that a public company may deduct for compensation paid to named executives unless compensation is based on an individual’s meeting pre-established performance goals determined by a compensation committee and approved by stockholders.

  

Retirement and Other Benefits

 

Generally, we view retirement savings as a personal matter. We currently do not offer any pre-tax retirement savings through the use of a traditional 401(k) plan; a deferred compensation plan; or other retirement programs.

  

Perquisites.    Eligible employees, including named executives, participate in various other employee benefit plans, including medical and dental care plans; flexible spending accounts for health care; life, accidental death and dismemberment and disability insurance; and vacation plans. The primary purpose of providing these plans and limited perquisites to senior executives is to attract and retain talented executives to manage the Company. With respect to non-insurance perquisites, we prefer to take a minimalist approach. For fiscal 2011, the Company did not have executive non-insurance perquisites.

 



Compensation Committee Report

 

The Compensation Committee has reviewed and discussed the Compensation Discussion and Analysis set forth in this Annual Report with our management. Based on such review and discussions, the Compensation Committee recommended to our Board of Directors that the Compensation Discussion and Analysis be included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
