in Note 15 to the financial statements. For example, please discuss and analyze cost of
sales or operating income separately for each segment.
2. Please ex pand your discussion of cost of revenue to quantify and discuss the significant
cost components within this broad category, such as labor, product costs, product
development costs, overhead, and any other significant components that would enable
readers to understand your business better. For example, you state that cost of revenues
decreased as a percentage of total revenue due to improved overhead absorption as a
result of higher product sales, increased labor and production efficiency, improvements in
your materials sourcing, and better pricing of your products, offset in part by a $1.4
million benefit from a non -cash gain related to a free piece of equipment, but you do not
quantify these changes or provide the actual cost figures necessary to put these changes in
proper context. Also, please discuss the increase in cost of revenue for 2013 as compared
to 2012 based on actual dollar amounts.
