(1) As a result of the inability to separately identify the cash flows associated with the construction of leased gaming equipment, the Company has included all additions to leased gaming equipment as an increase in inventory under cash used in operating activities in the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of cash flows. In addition, cash generated from the sale of used gaming equipment classified as leased gaming equipment is also included in cash provided by operating activities in the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of cash flows. The Company has one process to procure raw materials for the assembly of both inventory and leased gaming equipment. The materials requisition planning process considers the number of devices the Company expects to build for sale and for use in its gaming operations during a particular period, but it does not separately earmark purchases for leased gaming equipment. Without such an earmarking process, the Company is unable to determine whether the parts used to construct leased gaming equipment during a particular period came from inventory on hand at the beginning of the period or was constructed from inventory procured during the period of deployment, thus requiring the expenditure of cash.
BALLY TECHNOLOGIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Bally Technologies, Inc. (Bally or the Company), a Nevada corporation, is a diversified global gaming company that designs, manufactures, operates and distributes advanced technology-based gaming devices, systems, server-based solutions, custom mobile applications, and interactive applications. The Companys innovations and technology solutions allow its customers to more effectively manage their operations using our wide range of marketing, data management and analysis, accounting, player tracking, security and other software applications and tools. The Company also provides hardware, including spinning-reel and video gaming devices, specialty gaming devices, and wide-area progressive systems. Under its business-to-business model, the Company supports customers that include traditional land-based, riverboat, and Native American casinos, video lottery and central determination markets.
Principles of presentation and consolidation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Bally Technologies, Inc., and its wholly owned and partially owned subsidiaries, and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP) and, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC), include all adjustments necessary to fairly present the Companys consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows for each period presented. All adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations. The results of operations for an interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any other interim period or the year as a whole. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012. References to specific U.S. GAAP within this report cite topics within the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC).
All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use of estimates
The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Fair value of financial instruments
The fair value of a financial instrument is the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced sale or liquidation.
All financial assets and liabilities are recognized or disclosed at fair value using a fair value hierarchy that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. A financial instruments categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. There are three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
· Level 1: quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
· Level 2: inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities; or
· Level 3: unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.
The carrying amounts reflected in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets for cash equivalents, accounts and notes receivable, investment securities to fund jackpot liabilities, accounts payable, jackpot liabilities and long-term debt approximate their respective fair values. Cash equivalents and investment securities to fund jackpot liabilities have Level 1 inputs with values based on quoted market prices. Accounts and notes receivable and jackpot liabilities have Level 3 inputs and were valued using Discounted Cash Flows (DCF) incorporating expected future payment timing and current borrowing rates. Long-term debt has Level 2 inputs and was valued using DCF incorporating expected future payment timing and current borrowing rates.
The Company transacts business in various foreign currencies and has international sales and expenses denominated in foreign currencies, subjecting the Company to foreign currency risk. The Company may enter into foreign currency forward contracts, generally with maturities of twelve months or less, to hedge recognized foreign currency assets and liabilities to reduce the risk that earnings and cash flows will be adversely affected by changes in foreign currency exchange rates. The gains or losses resulting from changes in the fair value of these forward contracts, which are not designated as accounting hedges, are reported in other income (expense) in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations, and generally offset the gains and losses associated with the underlying foreign-currency-denominated balances, which are also reported in other income (expense). As of December 31, 2012 and June 30, 2012, euro forward contracts for a total of $38.9 million and $38.0 million, respectively, or the equivalent of 29.4 and 30 million, respectively, were outstanding. In addition, as of December 31, 2012, a pound sterling forward contract for $2.4 million, or the equivalent of £1.5 million, was outstanding.
The Company may use interest rate derivatives to manage the interest expense generated by variable rate debt and foreign currency derivatives to manage foreign exchange risk. The Companys derivative financial instruments are measured at fair value on a recurring basis, and the balances were as follows:

The valuation techniques used to measure the fair value of the derivative financial instrument above in which the counterparties have high credit ratings, were derived from pricing models, such as discounted cash flow techniques, with all significant inputs derived from or corroborated by observable market data. The Companys discounted cash flow techniques use observable market inputs, such as LIBOR-based yield curves and foreign currency forward rates. See Note 5 to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, Long-Term Debt.
Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activity
The Company assesses, both at the inception of each designated hedge and on an on-going basis, whether the derivatives that are used in hedging transactions are highly effective in offsetting changes in cash flows of the hedged items. Such highly effective derivatives are granted hedge accounting treatment. The interest rate derivative instruments meet these requirements and are accounted for as cash flow hedges.
The impact of the cash flow hedge and non-designated foreign currency derivatives on the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements is depicted below:

Revenue recognition
The Companys revenue recognition policy is to record revenue when all of the following criteria have been satisfied:
· Persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists;
· The price or fee to the customer is fixed or determinable;
· Collectability is reasonably assured;
· Delivery has occurred; and
· No significant contractual obligations remain.
Revenues are reported net of incentive rebates, discounts, sales taxes, and all other items of a similar nature. For products sold under arrangements with extended payment terms the probability of collection is evaluated based on a review of the customers credit worthiness and a review of historic collection experience on contracts with extended payment terms. As a result of such review, the Company recognizes revenue on extended payment term arrangements as the Company has determined that collectability is reasonably assured and the fee is considered fixed and determinable.
Games placed with customers on a trial basis are recorded as revenue once the trial period has ended, the customer has accepted the games, and all other revenue recognition criteria have been satisfied. Amounts billed to customers prior to completing the earnings process are deferred until the revenue recognition criteria are satisfied.
Gaming Operations Revenue. Gaming operations revenue consists of the operation of linked progressive systems and the rental of gaming devices, game content and the related systems placed with customers. Fees under these arrangements are earned and recognized based on a share of money wagered, a share of the net winnings, or on a fixed daily rate. The daily fee entitles the customer to full use of the gaming device and includes maintenance, licensing of the game content software and connection to a linked progressive system, where applicable. In certain markets, the Company also charges a daily system connection fee for the customer to connect to a central determination system and/or back-office system. The Company does not consider these arrangements to have multiple revenue-generating activities as the services offered are a comprehensive solution in exchange for a daily fee and all of the products and services are delivered simultaneously. Gaming operations revenue is recognized under general revenue recognition guidance as the deliverables provide the customer with rights to use tangible gaming devices and software that is essential to the functionality of the gaming devices.
Gaming Equipment Revenue. Gaming Equipment revenue is generated from the sale of gaming devices and licensing rights to game content software that is installed in the gaming device, parts, and other ancillary equipment. Arrangements may also include sales of game content conversion kits which enable customers to replace game content without purchasing a new gaming device. Gaming equipment arrangements do not include maintenance and product support fees beyond a standard warranty period. The recognition of revenue from the sale of gaming devices occurs as title and risk of loss have passed to the customer and all other revenue recognition criteria have been satisfied.
As the combination of game content software and the tangible gaming device function together to deliver the products essential functionality, revenue from the sale of gaming devices is recognized under general revenue recognition guidance. Game content conversion kits are considered software deliverables and are recognized in accordance with software revenue recognition guidance.
Systems Revenue. Systems revenue arrangements generally include a combination of systems software licenses, systems-based hardware products, maintenance and product support fees and professional services. The primary function of systems software licensed by the Company is to aid customers to more effectively run their business with marketing, data management and analysis, accounting, player tracking and security features.
Revenue for systems software and maintenance and product support fees is recognized under software revenue recognition guidance. Although the systems software and certain systems-based hardware function together, the primary functionality of the systems software is derived from the software and the systems software is not essential to the functionality of the systems-based hardware.
The Company licenses systems software on a perpetual basis or under time-based licenses. Revenue from perpetual license software is recognized at the inception of the license term provided all revenue recognition criteria have been satisfied. Revenue from maintenance and product support fees sold with perpetual licenses is recognized over the term of the support period. The Companys time-based licenses are generally for twelve month terms and are bundled with software maintenance and product support fees. All revenue from such arrangements is recognized over the term of the license.
Systems-based hardware includes embedded software that is essential to the functionality of the hardware. Accordingly, revenue related to all systems-based hardware sales and related maintenance and product support fees are recognized under general revenue recognition guidance. Revenue from the sale of systems-based hardware is generally recognized upon delivery when title and risk of loss have passed to the customer and all other revenue recognition criteria are satisfied. However, in the case of arrangements involving a systems installation, revenue on the systems-based hardware is generally not recognized until the system has been installed and the customer has accepted the system. Hardware maintenance and product support fees are recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the support period which is generally twelve months.
Software maintenance and product support provides customers with rights to unspecified software product upgrades, maintenance and patches released during the term of the support period. The Companys software maintenance and product support arrangements are generally for twelve month periods. Software maintenance and product support is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the support period.
Multiple Element Arrangements. The Company enters into revenue arrangements that may consist of multiple deliverables of its products and services. For example, customers may enter into arrangements with the Company for the implementation of systems software and the sale of gaming devices. Arrangements for the implementation of systems software will generally include a combination of systems software licenses, systems-based hardware products, maintenance and product support fees, and professional services. Certain gaming equipment arrangements may also include the sale of gaming devices and game content conversion kits.
Revenue arrangements with multiple deliverables are allocated to separate units of accounting if the deliverables meet both of the following criteria:
· The delivered items have value to the customer on a stand-alone basis. The items have value on a standalone basis if they are sold separately by any vendor or the customer could resell the delivered items on a standalone basis; and
· If the arrangement includes a general right of return relative to the delivered items, delivery or performance of the undelivered items is considered probable and substantially in the control of the Company.
At the inception of a multiple element arrangement, fees under the arrangement are allocated to the nonsoftware deliverables, and to the software deliverables as a group based on their relative selling price. Software deliverables are further subject to separation and allocation based on software revenue recognition guidance as described in the following paragraph. When applying the relative selling price method, a hierarchy is used for estimating the selling price based first on vendor-specific objective evidence (VSOE), then third-party evidence (TPE) and finally managements estimate of the selling price (ESP). Revenue for each unit of accounting is recognized when the relevant recognition criteria for each respective element has been met.
In allocating arrangement fees under the relative selling price hierarchy, the Company uses VSOE for all products which have been sold on a stand-alone basis. As TPE is generally not available, the Company uses ESP for products that are not sold on a stand-alone basis and for recently introduced products that are sold on a stand-alone basis but for which a history of stand-alone sales has not yet been developed. Following these guidelines, the Company uses either VSOE or ESP for gaming devices, system-based hardware products, maintenance and product support fees associated with perpetual licenses and professional services; and ESP for perpetual and time-based software licenses and maintenance and product support fees associated with time-based licenses.
The Company uses the residual method to recognize revenue allocated to software deliverables. Under the residual method, the fair value of the undelivered elements is deferred and the remaining portion of the arrangement fee is allocated to the delivered element and is recognized as revenue. In arrangements in which the Company does not have VSOE of fair value of all undelivered software elements, revenue is deferred until delivery occurs or VSOE of fair value has been established for any remaining undelivered software elements. In the event the only undelivered software element is maintenance and product support for which VSOE of fair value does not exist, the revenue is recognized ratably over the maintenance and product support period.
The establishment of VSOE requires judgment as to whether there is a sufficient quantity of items sold on a stand-alone basis and whether the prices demonstrate an appropriate level of concentration to conclude that VSOE exists. In determining ESP, management considers a variety of information including historic pricing and discounting practices, competitive market activity, internal costs, and the pricing and discounting practices of products sold in bundled arrangements.
Recently adopted accounting pronouncements
On December 31, 2011, the Company chose to early adopt new accounting guidance to make the presentation of items within other comprehensive income (OCI) more prominent. The new standard requires companies to present items of net income, items of OCI and total comprehensive income in one continuous statement or two separate consecutive statements, and companies are no longer allowed to present items of OCI only in the statement of stockholders equity. The Company chose to present the items in two separate consecutive statements. The new guidance was applied retrospectively.
Effective December 31, 2011, new accounting guidance for testing goodwill impairment permits an entity to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform the two-step goodwill impairment test. The Company has not yet utilized this method in its evaluation of goodwill impairment.
Effective September 30, 2012, new accounting guidance for testing indefinite-lived intangible assets permits an entity to first access qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events and circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that the indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired. The outcome of the assessment is used as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to determine the fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible asset and perform the quantitative impairment test by comparing the fair value with the carrying amount in accordance with ASC Topic 350. The Company has not yet utilized this method in its evaluation of indefinite-lived intangible assets impairment.
Recently issued accounting pronouncements not yet adopted
In December 2011, the FASB issued new accounting guidance for disclosures about offsetting assets and liabilities which requires an entity to disclose information about financial instruments that have been offset and related arrangements to enable users of its financial statements to understand the effect of those arrangements on its financial position. Entities will be required to provide both net (offset amounts) and gross information in the notes to the financial statements for relevant assets and liabilities that are offset. The new guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013, and interim periods within those annual periods. The Company expects to adopt this guidance in fiscal year 2014 and does not believe it will have a significant impact on its consolidated results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.
The Company believes there is no additional new accounting guidance adopted but not yet effective that is relevant to the readers of our financial statements. However, there are numerous new proposals under development which, if and when enacted, may have a significant impact on its financial reporting.
2. EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic earnings per share are computed by dividing earnings by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share reflect the additional dilution from all potentially dilutive securities.
The computation of basic and diluted earnings per share applicable to the Companys common stock is as follows:

3. ACCOUNTS AND NOTES RECEIVABLE
Accounts and notes receivable are stated at face value less an allowance for doubtful accounts. The Company generally grants customers credit terms for periods of 30 to 120 days, but may also grant extended payment terms to some customers for periods up to three years, with interest generally at market rates.
The Company has one portfolio segment, the casino industry customer, and four classes of receivables including its trade receivables with a contract term less than one year, trade receivables with a contract term greater than one year, sales-type leasing arrangements, and notes receivable, which are related to development financing loans.
Trade receivables with contract terms greater than one year relate to the sale of gaming equipment and systems transactions, and are generally collateralized by the related equipment sold, although the value of such equipment, if repossessed, may be less than the receivable balance outstanding. Sales-type leasing arrangements relate to gaming equipment and include options to purchase the equipment at the end of the lease term at established prices. Customers with sales-type leasing arrangements typically have a long-standing credit history with the Company.
The Company has also provided development financing to certain customers in the form of notes receivable with repayment terms of three to ten years. These notes may require scheduled quarterly principal reductions and may also include accelerated payment terms based upon a percentage of net-win from gaming devices sold or leased to these customers. Notes receivable as of December 31, 2012, include $16.4 million, net of discounts of $3.4 million, related to development financing loans made to HBG Connex S.P.A. (HBG) to allow it to make advance payments necessary to obtain gaming licenses in the Italian Video Lottery Terminal (VLT) market. HBG has initiated arbitration proceedings against the Company as a result of alleged damages from delays in obtaining regulatory approval of certain gaming equipment to be leased to HBG (see Note 9 to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, Commitments and Contingencies) and has not made required payments on the notes receivable. The Company has not recorded an impairment as management expects to collect amounts due under the notes receivable.

The Company evaluates the credit quality of its accounts and notes receivable and establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts based on a combination of factors including, but not limited to, customer collection experience, economic conditions, and the customers financial condition. In addition to specific account identification, which includes the review of any modifications of accounts and notes receivable, if applicable, the Company utilizes historic collection experience for the most recent twelve month period to establish an allowance for doubtful accounts. Receivables are written off only after the Company has exhausted all collection efforts.
Gaming is a highly regulated industry requiring customers to obtain a gaming operators license and verify with the applicable regulatory agency that they have the financial resources to operate a gaming establishment. Many of the Companys customers, including new casinos that have opened in recent years, are owned by existing multi-property customers that have established a favorable payment history with the Company. Customer accounts typically include a mix of trade receivables balances with terms for periods of 30 to 120 days and financing receivables resulting from extended payment terms.
The Company monitors the credit quality of its accounts receivable by reviewing an aging of customer invoices. Invoices are considered past due if a scheduled payment is not received within contractually agreed upon terms. The Companys notes receivable are reviewed quarterly, at a minimum, for impairment. The Company also reviews a variety of other relevant qualitative information such as collection experience, economic conditions and specific customer financial conditions to evaluate credit risk in recording the allowance for doubtful accounts or as an indicator of an impaired loan.
The Company accrues interest, if applicable, on its accounts and notes receivables per the terms of the agreement. Interest is not accrued on past due accounts and notes receivable, or individual amounts that the Company has determined and specifically identified as not collectible. The following summarizes the aging of past due receivables, excluding trade accounts receivable with a contract term less than one year, as of December 31, 2012:

The aging of customer invoices is based on their contractually agreed upon payment terms, which in certain rare circumstances have been modified from the original financing terms. The modifications of original financing terms are infrequent and generally do not represent a concession as they result only in a delay of payment that is typically insignificant to our total trade, lease and notes receivable balances. There were no significant modifications of accounts and notes receivable during the period.
Impairment is recognized when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of a note arrangement. Due to an individual customers filing of a bankruptcy petition, the Company recognized an impairment charge on notes receivable of $1.8 million in fiscal year 2012 and an additional $0.8 million in the six months ended December 31, 2012 after estimating the fair value of the collateral less costs to sell.

The fair value of accounts and notes receivable, net, is estimated by discounting expected future cash flows using current interest rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers, with similar credit ratings and remaining maturities. As of December 31, 2012 and June 30, 2012, the fair value of the accounts and notes receivable, net, approximate the carrying value.

As of December 31, 2012 and June 30, 2012, there was approximately $115.0 million and $170.0 million, respectively, of undrawn availability under the revolving credit facility. Availability under the revolving credit facility is reduced to the extent of outstanding letters of credit.
On April 15, 2011, the Company entered into an amended and restated credit agreement, that provides for a $700 million senior secured credit facility comprised of a $300 million, five-year term loan and a $400 million, five-year revolving credit facility, including a $50 million sublimit for the issuance of standby letters of credit, a $10 million sublimit for swingline loans and a $150 million sublimit for multicurrency borrowings approved under the credit facility.
The interest rate on the credit facility is subject to a leverage-based pricing grid that ranges from LIBOR plus a margin of 1.00% to 2.00%.
As of December 31, 2012 and June 30, 2012, the interest rate on the revolving credit facility was 1.71% and 1.75%, respectively, and the interest rate on the term loan was 3.59% and 3.58%, respectively, after giving effect to the floating-to-fixed interest rate swaps.
Under the credit facility, the term loan requires quarterly principal reductions in an amount equal to $3,750,000, through March 2013; $5,625,000, through March 2014; $7,500,000, from June 2014 until the term loans maturity in May 2016 upon when the remaining outstanding principal balance of $187,500,000 is due.
The credit facility is collateralized by substantially all of the Companys domestic property and is guaranteed by each of the Companys domestic subsidiaries, excluding any noncontrolling interests, and is secured by a pledge agreement.
The credit facility contains a number of covenants that, among other things, restrict the Companys ability and certain of its subsidiaries to dispose of assets, incur additional indebtedness or issue preferred stock, pay dividends or make other distributions, enter into certain acquisitions, repurchase equity interests or subordinated indebtedness, issue or sell equity interests of our subsidiaries, engage in mergers or acquisitions or certain transactions with subsidiaries and affiliates, and that otherwise restrict corporate activities.
The financial covenants under the credit facility consist of a leverage ratio and an interest coverage ratio. The leverage ratio is computed as total debt outstanding at the end of the quarter divided by the trailing twelve months Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (EBITDA), excluding certain cash and non-cash charges. The interest coverage ratio is computed as EBITDA for the trailing twelve months divided by the trailing twelve months of interest charges.
A breach of any of the covenants or the inability to comply with the required financial ratios could result in a default under the credit facility. In the event of any such default, the lenders could elect to declare all borrowings outstanding under the credit facility, together with any accrued interest and other fees, to be due and payable. If the Company were unable to repay the indebtedness upon its acceleration, the lenders could proceed against the underlying collateral. The Company was in compliance with all of the credit facility covenants as of December 31, 2012 and June 30, 2012.
Interest Rate Swap Agreements
Effective December 2008, the Company entered into a floating-to-fixed interest rate swap agreement with an original notional value of $218.8 million and a maturity date of September 26, 2012 to fix floating LIBOR based debt to fixed rate debt at an interest rate of 1.89% (plus applicable margin). Effective June 2011, the Company entered into a second floating-to-fixed rate swap agreement with an original notional value of $165.0 million and a maturity date of May 13, 2016 to fix a portion of the floating LIBOR based debt under the new term loan to fixed rate debt at an interest rate of 2.09% (plus applicable margin). The second interest rate swap has an accreting and subsequently amortizing notional in order to hedge the targeted amount of debt over the life of the swap. At December 31, 2012 and June 30, 2012, the combined swap agreements had notional values of $273.8 million and $281.3 million, respectively.
The Company has documented and designated these interest rate swaps as cash flow hedges. Based on the assessment of effectiveness using statistical regression, the Company determined that the interest rate swaps are effective. Effectiveness testing of the hedge relationships and measurement to quantify ineffectiveness is performed each fiscal quarter using the hypothetical derivative method. As the interest rate swaps qualify as cash flow hedges, the Company adjusts the cash flow hedges on a quarterly basis to their fair value with a corresponding offset to accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (OCI). The interest rate swaps have been and are expected to remain highly effective for the life of the hedges. Effective amounts are reclassified to interest expense as the related hedged expense is incurred. Any ineffectiveness is reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income to other income (expense). As of December 31, 2012, the Company had an insignificant amount of ineffectiveness on its cash flow hedge. As of June 30, 2012, the Company had no ineffectiveness on its cash flow hedges. Amounts related to the swaps expected to be reclassified from other comprehensive income to interest expense in the next twelve months total $5.0 million.

As of December 31, 2012, there was $4.9 million of total unrecognized compensation expense related to the unvested portion of stock options which will be recognized over the subsequent 1.52 years. In addition, as of December 31, 2012, there was $23.8 million of total unrecognized compensation expense related to the unvested portion of restricted stock and RSUs which will be recognized over the subsequent 1.97 years.
7. STOCKHOLDERS EQUITY
Share Repurchase Plan
The Companys Board of Directors have approved a variety of share repurchase plans under which, subject to price and market conditions, purchases of shares can be made from time to time in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions using available cash.
During the six months ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, the Company repurchased 2.1 million shares and 1.4 million shares of common stock for $91.3 million and $40.9 million, respectively, under the share repurchase plan. As of December 31, 2012, $125.9 million remained available under the plan for repurchase in future periods.
8. INCOME TAXES
The provision for income taxes for interim periods is based on the current estimate of the annual effective tax rate expected to be applicable for the full fiscal year and the impact of discrete items, if any, and is adjusted as necessary for quarterly events. The effective income tax rate was 37.0% and 37.7% for the three months ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively and 37.1% and 37.3% for the six months ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
The IRS commenced examination of the Companys United States federal income tax returns for 2006 through 2009 during fiscal year 2011. The IRS completed its field examination of the open tax years and issued a Revenue Agents Report in January 2012. The Company filed a formal protest regarding certain unagreed adjustments in March 2012. The case has been assigned to the IRS Appeals Office in Laguna Niguel, California. If successful in defending the Companys position, it would result in a reduction to unrecognized tax benefits and a corresponding reduction of income tax provisions of approximately $3.7 million. If the IRS were to prevail in full, it would result in additional income tax provisions of approximately $7.1 million for the tax years 2006 through 2009.
It is reasonably possible that within the next twelve months the Company will resolve the matter presently under consideration with the IRS, which may increase or decrease unrecognized tax benefits for the open tax years. However, an estimate of such increase or decrease cannot reasonably be made.
As of December 31, 2012, the Company has $13.4 million related to uncertain tax positions, excluding related accrued interest and penalties, $13.3 million of which, if recognized, would impact the effective tax rate. As of December 31, 2012, the Company has $1.9 million accrued for the payment of interest and penalties.
Excluding the IRS Appeals case described above, it is reasonably possible that the Companys amount of unrecognized tax benefits may decrease within the next twelve months by a range up to $1.2 million.
The Company files numerous consolidated and separate income tax returns in the United States and various state and foreign jurisdictions. The Company is currently under examination in certain states and foreign jurisdictions. With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to United States federal, state and local, or foreign income tax examinations for years before fiscal 2006.
9. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Litigation
The Company is subject to legal proceedings, claims and investigations in the ordinary course of business, including claims of alleged infringement of third-party patents and other intellectual property rights, indemnification claims, commercial, employment, regulatory and other matters. Liabilities related to such matters are recorded when it is both probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be reasonably estimated. All legal costs associated with litigation are expensed as incurred.
In February 2012, HBG filed requests for arbitration in the National and International Chamber of Arbitration of Milan, Italy, against the Companys Dutch and Italian subsidiaries (Bally Netherlands and Bally Italy, respectively). HBG alleged breach of contract (i) by Bally Netherlands in connection with a contractual arrangement pursuant to which the Company agreed to supply certain gaming equipment and (ii) by Bally Italy in connection with financial assistance for HBGs acquisition of licenses to operate gaming equipment in certain Italian markets. The Company responded in March 2012 denying the allegations and seeking to dismiss HBGs claims. Bally Netherlands has asserted a counterclaim against HBG for breach of contract for failure to assist in altering its products to conform to regulatory requirements in the Italian market. The counterclaim seeks equitable relief compelling HBG to perform its contractual obligations as well as an undetermined amount of monetary damages. While it is possible the arbitration could result in damages against the Company, management has assessed the merits of HBGs claim for alleged damages of approximately 114 million and believes that a range of potential loss related to this claim is not estimable.
In December 2004, International Game Technology (IGT) filed a patent infringement lawsuit against the Company in the United States District Court for the District of Nevada. The complaint asserted that the Companys wheel-based games, its games with a reel in the top box and its iVIEW products infringed on patents held by IGT, and sought injunctive relief and damages in unspecified amounts. As part of the defense, the Company asserted counterclaims seeking damages and other relief against IGT, including claims that IGTs patents were invalid, unenforceable and not infringed, as well as several claims that IGT engaged in anti-competitive conduct in violation of state and federal antitrust laws. In October 2008, the court granted the Companys motions for summary judgment, ruling that IGTs two wheel patents and a touch-screen player-tracking patent were invalid; that even if the patents were valid, the Companys wheel-based games at issue would not infringe; and that certain of its iVIEW products do not infringe the two asserted player- tracking patents. The summary judgment determinations were upheld by the Federal Circuit Court of Appeals. Upon remand, the District Court granted summary judgment in favor of IGT on the remaining portion of the case regarding IGTs alleged antitrust violations and in favor of Bally on IGTs remaining claim that Bally infringed an IGT player tracking patent. The Company appealed the summary judgment on Ballys antitrust claims against IGT, and on December 17, 2012, a divided panel of the Federal Circuit Court of Appeals affirmed. The Companys petition for rehearing by the full court is pending.
The Company is also a party to various claims and lawsuits relating to routine matters that arise from time to time in the ordinary course of its business. Although, management does not currently believe that the outcome of such claims, including the matters discussed above, in the aggregate, will have a material effect on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows, these matters are subject to inherent uncertainties and managements view of these matters may change in the future.
As of December 31, 2012, the Company accrued aggregate liabilities of $7.2 million in other current liabilities for its contingent legal matters. While the Company intends to defend all legal matters vigorously, adverse outcomes that the Company estimates are reasonable could possibly reach approximately $12.6 million in the aggregate beyond recorded amounts.
Were unfavorable final outcomes to occur, there exists the possibility of a material adverse impact on the Companys financial statements for the period in which the effects become reasonably estimable.
10. SEGMENT AND GEOGRAPHICAL INFORMATION
The Companys revenue consists of: Gaming Equipment, which includes the sale of gaming devices and related equipment, parts and conversion kits; Gaming Operations, which includes the operation of wide-area progressive, video lottery and centrally determined systems and the rental of gaming devices and content; and Systems, which includes the sale and support of computerized monitoring systems and related recurring hardware and software maintenance revenue.

We review certain financial measures in assessing our financial condition and operating performance not only in connection with creating our internal forecasts and in making comparisons to financial results from prior periods, but also in making comparisons to our competitors financial results. We focus on fluctuations in revenue, cost and gross margin and also pay close attention to changes in our consolidated operating income, net income, diluted earnings per share, adjusted EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, including asset charges and loss contingencies and share-based compensation), cash flows from operations and free cash flow (cash flows from operating activities less capital expenditures) as they are key indicators of our success. We also measure changes in selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses as a percent of revenue, which indicate managements ability to control costs, as well as changes in research and development (R&D) costs as a percent of revenue, which demonstrate investment in technology and product development. The measures listed above are not a comprehensive list of all factors considered by us in assessing our financial condition and operating performance, and we may consider other individual measures as required by trends and discrete events arising in a specific period, but they are the key indicators.
We continue to operate in a challenging economic environment. The gaming sector was and continues to be negatively impacted by lower consumer spending and limited resources available to fund capital projects. As a result of the challenging economic environment, we have provided select customers a greater amount of payment terms for periods up to one year, and in some cases for periods up to three years. We expect to continue to extend credit for these longer periods for the foreseeable future.
There are several new and potential gaming market developments that we believe will benefit us in the long term. In our domestic market, we are focused on approved new jurisdictional opportunities and expansions in Canada, Illinois, Ohio, Maryland, Louisiana, Mississippi, Florida, Massachusetts, Pennsylvania and California, and the potential for new market opportunities in New Hampshire, Kentucky and Texas. The breadth and timing of such opportunities remain uncertain due to the legislative process in these jurisdictions, as well as the difficult credit environment facing certain of our customers and the risk of the gaming industry impact of continued economic uncertainty. We are also engaged in expanding our position in South Africa, Australia, New Zealand, Italy, the Philippines, Vietnam, and Mexico, and from potential new markets in Eastern Europe, Greece, Taiwan, South Korea, Japan, and Brazil. Our entry into the Italian VLT market was delayed by a lengthened regulatory approval process that developed in that market after we submitted our products for approval. As a result, certain customers and partners have modified their business approach to the market, which has, at least in the near term, reduced the amount of business we expected from the Italian VLT market. We received regulatory approval for our products and began deploying VLTs in Italy during July 2012.

Gaming equipment revenues improved in the three and six months ended December 31, 2012 due primarily to an increase in the number of new gaming devices sold as a result of our investments in key platform and hardware innovations. Our Pro Series cabinets with ALPHA 2 technology are state of the art for the industry with regards to ergonomics, processing power, display technology, input device, operating system, sound and serviceability. This platform allows for the development of new, more compelling games and also facilitates our game download solution for customers. Our Pro Series cabinets also feature the iDeck, first of its kind multi-touch fully programmable and downloadable button panel which offers opportunity to add more interaction to the game-play experience with mystery bonus events, virtual shooting galleries and skill-based bonus games. We have and will continue to expand the number of game-development teams producing content on our new ALPHA 2 technology. Gaming equipment gross margins increased to 53% and 50% in the three and six months ended December 31, 2012, respectively, when compared to 43% in both the three and six months ended December 31, 2011, primarily driven by benefits from continued cost reductions on the Pro Series line of cabinets and sales mix. Gross margins for the three months ended December 31, 2012 further benefited from a reduction in cost due to a customer contract election and an increase in conversion kit revenue, when compared to the same period last year.
During the second quarter of fiscal year 2013, we shipped more than double the number of Video Gaming Terminal (VGT) units to Illinois as the first quarter, we shipped additional Video Lottery Terminal (VLT) units to the Atlantic Lottery Corporation, and traditional domestic replacement sales were up year-over-year for the seventh consecutive quarter.

Revenues increased during the three and six months ended December 31, 2012 due primarily to the significant investments we have made in our game development studios and game platform in recent years, the continued placement of premium games, the continued success of Cash Connection, the latest wide-area progressive (WAP) link, and the benefit from a full six months of results from games placed in Resorts World New York City in late calendar year 2011. The release of Michael Jackson King of Pop and GREASE and the more recent launch of Betty Boops Fortune Teller and Cash Spin Jackpot, all on our Cash Connection, drove another WAP record for revenue and units placed.
We have several scheduled product launches over the next few months, including, WAP games for both Hot Shot Progressive and NASCAR®, as well as the recently released Pawn Stars premium daily-fee game. The installed base of centrally determined systems has declined as certain customers have upgraded these systems to utilize more sophisticated player tracking, bonus and marketing applications, and are now covered under systems maintenance.

Our Systems revenues are comprised of:
· Hardware, including our iVIEW player-user-interface device and specialized system-based products.
· Software and services, including licenses of our core systems and suite of player tracking, bonusing, and marketing applications and customized system solutions.
· Maintenance, providing access to future enhancements or upgrades to the system software for a fee based on a percent of the license fee.
The combination of iVIEW DM and Elite Bonusing Suite and other features like Universal Card across multiple properties are becoming increasingly compelling return-on-investment propositions with multiple customer instances of demonstrable value generated from such implementations. During the six months ended December 31, 2012, one large casino customer in Las Vegas, Nevada successfully launched NASCAR® Virtual Racing across the casino floor on both iVIEW and iVIEW DM. We are also making good progress with international systems installations including Canada, South Africa, New Zealand and Australia.
We have continued to invest in the basics of enterprise software development, delivery, customer support and services discipline, on improving core products, providing quality upgrade options for our customers, and increasing customer satisfaction levels through better service and support.

The increase in SG&A expenses was due primarily to the increases in payroll and related expenses, bad debt expense, and other infrastructure expenses to support key new markets and initiatives. Payroll and related expenses increased due primarily to an increase in headcount in the comparative periods.
The increase in R&D costs was attributable to our continued focus on our technology assets. R&D was consistent at 11% of total revenues in each period.
Liquidity
Total cash and cash equivalents increased $36.9 million in the six months ended December 31, 2012, when compared to a decrease of $21.5 million in the same period last year. Net cash provided by operating activities was $67.9 million and $61.9 million for the six months ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Cash provided by operating activities in the current period was positively impacted by improvements in net income during the current period, which was offset by an increase in prepaid and refundable income tax and an increase in the excess tax benefit of stock option exercises.
During the six months ended December 31, 2012, we made payments of $7.5 million on our credit facility, made capital expenditures of $6.9 million, and repurchased $100.0 million of our common stock. These cash outlays were partially offset by proceeds of $55.0 million from borrowings under our credit facility, and proceeds of $16.3 million from the exercise of employee stock options and purchases of common stock under our 2008 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the 2008 ESPP).

Three Months Ended December 31, 2012 Compared to Three Months Ended December 31, 2011
Total revenues increased $27.9 million to $238.3 million, or 13%, in the three months ended December 31, 2012, when compared to the same period last year, as a result of the following:
Gaming Equipment Revenue. Gaming Equipment revenue increased by $12.4 million, or 18%, to approximately $82.6 million primarily as a result of:
· a 26% increase in new gaming device sales to 4,565 units in the three months ended December 31, 2012, when compared to 3,636 units in the same period last year, driven by higher domestic replacement sales, the shipment of 568 Canadian VLTs, and the shipments of units into the Illinois Video Gaming Terminal (VGT) market; offset by
· a 4% decrease in ASP to $16,553 in the three months ended December 31, 2012, when compared to $17,201 in the same period last year, due primarily to the mix of products sold, including lower-ASP VLTs and VGTs.
Gaming Equipment Gross Margin. Gaming Equipment gross margin increased to 53% in the three months ended December 31, 2012 from 43%, in the same period last year, due primarily to continued cost reductions on the Pro Series line of cabinets and sales mix, a reduction in cost due to a customer contract election, and an increase in conversion kit revenue.
Gaming Operations Revenue. Gaming Operations revenue increased $12.8 million, or 15%, to approximately $99.0 million in the three months ended December 31, 2012, when compared to the same period last year, primarily as a result of:
· an increase in participation and rental revenue due to an increase in our end of period installed base of games, the continuing placements of higher yield premium products, and newer and more popular game titles;
· an increase in linked progressive revenue driven by growth in the installed base of games due primarily to the introduction of our WAP link Cash Connection in late fiscal year 2012; and
· the performance of our lottery systems due to increases in our end of period installed base of games due primarily to previous placed games at Resorts World Casino New York City which opened in late calendar year 2011.
Gaming Operations Gross Margin. Gaming Operations gross margin decreased to 70% in the three months ended December 31, 2012 from 72% in the same period last year, due primarily to higher jackpot expense.
Systems Revenue. Systems revenue increased $2.7 million, or 5%, to approximately $56.7 million in the three months ended December 31, 2012, when compared to the same period last year, which was comprised primarily of a $5.0 million, or 28%, increase in maintenance revenue due to the increased install base of customers on our systems. The increase in maintenance revenue was partially offset by a decrease in hardware revenue by $2.4 million during the same period.
Systems Gross Margin. Systems gross margin increased to 76% in the three months ended December 31, 2012 from 74%, in the same period last year, primarily as a result of a change in the mix of products sold in the comparative periods including an increase in maintenance revenue which involves minimal variable costs.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. SG&A expenses increased $6.6 million, or 11%, in the three months ended December 31, 2012, when compared to the same period last year, due primarily to increases in payroll and related expenses and legal expense. Payroll and related expenses increased due primarily to an increase in headcount in the comparative periods primarily as a result of our expansion into international markets, and certain compensation related to executive transitions. Legal expense increased due primarily to additional accruals for contingent legal matters.
Research and Development Costs. R&D costs increased $4.2 million, or 19%, in the three months ended December 31, 2012, when compared to the same period last year, due primarily to increased product development efforts requiring an increase in employees. R&D was consistent at 11% of total revenues in both periods.
Depreciation and Amortization Expense. Depreciation and amortization expense decreased slightly by $0.1 million, or 2%, in the three months ended December 31, 2012, when compared to the same period last year.
Six Months Ended December 31, 2012 Compared to Six Months Ended December 31, 2011
Total revenues increased $68.1 million to $473.5 million, or 17%, in the six months ended December 31, 2012, when compared to the same period last year, as a result of the following:
Gaming Equipment Revenue. Gaming Equipment revenue increased by $30.7 million, or 23%, to approximately $165.3 million primarily as a result of:
· a 30% increase in new gaming device sales to 9,173 units in the six months ended December 31, 2012, when compared to 7,035 units in the same period last year, driven by higher domestic replacement sales, VLT shipments in Canada, and shipments into the Illinois VGT market; offset by
· a 1% decrease in ASP to $16,704 in the six months ended December 31, 2012, when compared to $16,922 in the same period last year, due primarily to the mix of products sold, including lower-ASP VLTs and VGTs.
Gaming Equipment Gross Margin. Gaming Equipment gross margin increased to 50% in the six months ended December 31, 2012 from 43%, in the same period last year, due primarily to continued cost reductions on the Pro Series line of cabinets and sales mix.
Gaming Operations Revenue. Gaming Operations revenue increased $29.0 million, or 17%, to approximately $200.2 million in the six months ended December 31, 2012, when compared to the same period last year, primarily as a result of:
· an increase in participation and rental revenue due to an increase in our end of period installed base of games, the continuing placements of higher yield premium products, and newer and more popular game titles;
· an increase in linked progressive revenue driven by growth in the installed base of games due primarily to the introduction of our WAP link Cash Connection in late fiscal year 2012; and
· the performance of our lottery systems due to increases in our end of period installed base of games due primarily to previous placed games at Resorts World Casino New York City which opened in late calendar year 2011.
Gaming Operations Gross Margin. Gaming Operations gross margin decreased to 70% in the six months ended December 31, 2012 from 72% in the same period last year, due primarily to higher jackpot expense.
Systems Revenue. Systems revenue increased $8.4 million, or 8%, to approximately $108.0 million in the six months ended December 31, 2012, when compared to the same period last year, which was comprised primarily of a $8.0 million, or 22%, increase in maintenance revenue due to the increased install base of customers on our systems.
Systems Gross Margin. Systems gross margin increased to 76% in the six months ended December 31, 2012 from 75%, in the same period last year, primarily as a result of a change in the mix of products sold in the comparative periods including an increase in maintenance revenue which involves minimal variable costs.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. SG&A expenses increased $13.9 million, or 12%, in the six months ended December 31, 2012, when compared to the same period last year, due primarily to increases in payroll and related expenses and bad debt expense. Payroll and related expenses increased due primarily to an increase in headcount in the comparative periods primarily as a result of our expansion into international markets, and certain compensation related to executive transitions. Bad debt expense increased due primarily to an increase in the allowance for doubtful accounts recorded in the current fiscal period in response to our expansion of credit offered to our customers, increased exposure in international markets, and an impairment of notes receivable of $0.8 million related to development financing. Bad debt as a percentage of revenue in the six months ended December 31, 2012 was approximately 1%.
Research and Development Costs. R&D costs increased $5.9 million, or 13%, in the six months ended December 31, 2012, when compared to the same period last year, due primarily to increased product development efforts requiring an increase in employees.

Pursuant to various state gaming regulations, certain cash accounts are maintained to ensure availability of funds to pay WAP jackpot awards in installments rather than in one lump-sum. At December 31, 2012 and June 30, 2012, these accounts had an aggregate value of approximately $13.2 million and $13.6 million, respectively, which are classified as restricted cash in our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. In addition, we purchase U.S. Treasury Strip Securities for the benefit of jackpot winners who elect to receive winnings in annual or weekly installment payments. These securities are included in restricted long-term investments in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets, and totaled $10.6 million and $12.2 million as of December 31, 2012 and June 30, 2012, respectively.
On December 31, 2012 and June 30, 2012, the amount of cash and investments held by foreign subsidiaries was $25.2 million and $22.6 million, respectively. If these funds are needed for our operations in the U.S., we would be required to accrue and pay U.S. taxes to repatriate these funds.
Our net working capital increased by $57.6 million in the six months ended December 31, 2012, when compared to June 30, 2012, and was primarily affected by a $36.9 million increase in cash and cash equivalents during the same period and by net working capital changes for the following components:
· An increase of $17.7 million in prepaid and refundable income tax and a decrease of $8.9 million in income tax payable due primarily to the timing of required tax payments in excess of accrued tax liabilities and the excess tax benefit of stock option exercises;
· A decrease of $9.3 million in accounts payable; and
· An increase of $9.9 million in deferred revenue due to deferred sales in accordance with our revenue recognition policy.
Current accounts and notes receivable increased slightly and long-term accounts and notes receivable decreased $21.2 million during the six months ended December 31, 2012, when compared to June 30, 2012. Total accounts and notes receivable decreased due primarily to a customer contract election during the period. As of December 31, 2012, our DSOs decreased to 101 days from 113 days at June 30, 2012 due to an increase in collections.
On April 15, 2011, we entered into an amended and restated credit agreement, that provides for a $700 million senior secured credit facility comprised of a $300 million, five-year term loan and a $400 million, five-year revolving credit facility, including a $50 million sublimit for the issuance of standby letters of credit, a $10 million sublimit for swingline loans and a $150 million sublimit for multicurrency borrowings approved under the credit facility. See Note 5 to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, Long-Term Debt.
As of December 31, 2012 and June 30, 2012, there was approximately $115.0 million and $170.0 million, respectively, of undrawn availability under the revolving credit facility. Availability under the revolving credit facility is reduced to the extent of outstanding letters of credit.
Management believes that cash flows from current operating activities will provide us with sufficient capital resources and liquidity to operate our business for at least the next 12 months.
At December 31, 2012, we had no material commitments for capital expenditures.
Cash Flow Summary
Our primary sources of liquidity include existing cash and cash equivalents, cash flows from all operating activities and the availability of funds under our revolving credit facility.
We utilize our cash to acquire materials for the manufacture of goods for resale, to pay payroll, interest, taxes and SG&A expenses and to fund R&D activities.
Cash flows provided by operating activities were $67.9 million in the six months ended December 31, 2012 as compared to $61.9 million in the same period last year, a $6.0 million increase. In the comparable periods, cash flows from operating activities for the six months ended December 31, 2012 were positively affected by increases in net income and decreases in accounts and notes receivable, but were negatively affected by a reduction in prepaid and refundable income tax and income tax payable due primarily to the timing of required tax payments in excess of accrued liabilities and the excess tax benefit of stock option exercises.
Cash utilized for investing activities is primarily for capital expenditures related to office and gaming equipment and improvements in leaseholds, financing arrangements with customers, acquisitions, and investments in technology and other long-term assets. During the six months ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, we made capital expenditures of $6.9 million and $3.9 million, respectively. In addition, we made payments of $6.0 million related to acquisitions in the six months ended December 31, 2011.
Cash utilized for financing activities is primarily for the payment of principal on our debt and the repurchase of shares of our common stock. During the six months ended December 31, 2012, we made payments of $7.5 million on our credit facility and repurchased $100.0 million of our common stock. During the six months ended December 31, 2011, we made payments of $27.5 million on our credit facility and repurchased $41.8 million of our common stock.
Cash provided by financing activities is primarily from proceeds from the exercise of stock options and purchases of stock under our 2008 ESPP, borrowings under our revolving credit facility, and excess tax benefits of stock option exercises. During the six months ended December 31, 2012, we borrowed $55.0 million under our revolving credit facility. In addition, during the six months ended December 31, 2012, employees purchased common stock through the exercise of stock options or the participation in the 2008 ESPP for $16.3 million. During the six months ended December 31, 2011, employees purchased common stock through the exercise of stock options or the participation in the 2008 ESPP for $4.1 million.
Critical Accounting Policies
A description of our critical accounting policies can be found in Item 7, Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in the 2012 Form 10-K. There were no material changes to those policies during the six months ended December 31, 2012.
Other Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
For a description of other recently issued accounting pronouncements, see Note 1 to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, Description of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Interest Rate Risk
As of December 31, 2012, we had total debt outstanding of approximately $559.0 million which consisted primarily of a $273.8 million term loan and $285.0 million of borrowing under our revolving credit facility. During the six months ended December 31, 2012, the interest rate for the credit facility was subject to a leveraged based pricing grid.
We have minimized our exposure to market interest rate risk because the variable interest rate on the term loan was effectively converted to a fixed rate as a result of the floating-to-fixed interest rate swaps entered into in December 2008 and June 2011, respectively, and discussed in Note 5 to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, Long-Term Debt. As of December 31, 2012, the interest rate on the revolving credit facility was 1.71% and the interest rate on our term loan was approximately 3.59%, after giving effect to our interest rate swaps. We estimate a hypothetical decline of 100 bps in applicable interest rates would have an immaterial impact on our business because we manage this exposure with derivative financial instruments.
Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk
Certain of our foreign subsidiaries use their local currency as their functional currency and are exposed to risks resulting from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. During the three months ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, we recognized foreign currency exchange rate losses of approximately $1.1 million and $0.8 million, respectively. During the six months ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, we recognized foreign currency exchange rate losses of approximately $1.9 million and $2.9 million, respectively. We estimate that a hypothetical 10% strengthening (or weakening) of the U.S. dollar for fiscal 2013 would have an immaterial impact on our business.
In addition, the net assets of these subsidiaries are exposed to foreign currency translation gains and losses which are included as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income in stockholders equity in our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. Such translation resulted in unrealized gains of $0.9 million as of December 31, 2012.
We may enter into foreign currency forward contracts, generally with maturities of twelve months or less, to hedge recognized foreign currency assets and liabilities to reduce the reduce the risk that earnings and cash flows will be adversely affected by changes in foreign currency exchange rates. See Note 1 to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, Description of Business and Summary of Significant Policies (Fair value of financial instruments).
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As required by Rule 13a-15(b) promulgated under the Exchange Act, our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) as of the end of the period covered by this report.
Based on this evaluation our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of December 31, 2012.
It should be noted that any system of controls, however well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable and not absolute assurance that the objectives of the system will be met. In addition, the design of any control system is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected or that judgments in decision-making are not based on faulty input.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting during the Quarter Ended December 31, 2012
Although we update our internal controls as necessary to accommodate any modifications to our business processes and accounting procedures as part of our normal operations, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred in the three months ended December 31, 2012 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
For a description of our legal proceedings, see Note 9 to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, Commitments and Contingencies, which is incorporated by reference in response to this item.
The Company is subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual results to differ materially from the expectations expressed in the forward looking statements. Factors that could cause our actual results to differ from expectations are described under Item 1A. Risk Factors in the 2012 10-K, to which there were no material changes during the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS
The Companys Board of Directors have historically approved a variety of share repurchase programs under which, subject to price and market conditions, purchases of shares could be made from time to time in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions using available cash.
On October 24, 2012, the Companys Board of Directors approved a new $150.0 million share-repurchase program, which replaced the Companys prior repurchase program under which there remained $23,236,159 in unused capacity at such time.
Our quarterly share repurchases under this program approved on October 24, 2012, excluding treasury shares acquired in non-cash transactions related to forfeited stock awards and shares exchanged for options exercised, were as follows:
