Liquidity and Capital Resources We regularly review our cash funding requirements and attempt to meet those requirements through a combination of cash on hand, cash provided by operations and possible future public or private debt and/or equity offerings. At times, we evaluate possible acquisitions of, or investments in, businesses that are complementary to ours, which may require the use of cash. We believe that our cash, other liquid assets and access to equity capital markets, taken together, provide adequate resources to fund ongoing operating expenditures. In the event that they do not, we may require additional funds in the future to support our working capital requirements or for other purposes and may seek to raise such additional funds through the sale of public or private equity and/or debt financings, divestiture of current business lines as well as from other sources. No assurance can be given that additional financing will be available in the future or that if available, such financing will be obtainable on favorable terms when required. Working capital at September 30, 2011 and June 30, 2011 was $9,664,000 and $10,233,000, respectively.
