Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

Information set forth in this Annual Report on Form 10-K contains various forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”), Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) and other laws. Forward-looking statements consist of, among other things, trend analyses, statements regarding future events, future financial performance, our plan to build our business and the related expenses, our anticipated growth, trends in our business, our ability to continue as a going concern, and the sufficiency of our capital resources including funds that we may be able to raise under our convertible note facility, our ability to raise financing from other sources and/or ability to defer expenditures, the impact of the liens on our assets securing amounts owed to third parties, expectation regarding competitors as more and larger companies attempt to market products/services competitive to our company, market acceptance of our new product offerings, including updates to our Platform, rate of new user subscriptions, market penetration of our products and expectations regarding our revenues and expense, all of which are based on current expectations, estimates, and forecasts, and the beliefs and assumptions of our management. Words such as “expect,” “anticipate,” “project,” “intend,” “plan,” “estimate,” variations of such words, and similar expressions also are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties, and assumptions that are difficult to predict. Therefore, actual results may differ materially and adversely from those expressed in any forward-looking statements. Readers are directed to risks and uncertainties identified under Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” and elsewhere in this report for factors that may cause actual results to be different than those expressed in these forward-looking statements. Except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to revise or update publicly any forward-looking statements for any reason.

ITEM 1. BUSINESS

General

MobileSmith, Inc. (referred to herein as, “MobileSmith,” the “Company,” “us,” “we,” or “our”) was incorporated in Delaware in August 1993 and became a public company through a self-registration in February 2005. The Company’s common stock trades on the OTC Market (OTC.QB) under the symbol “MOST”.

Principal Products and Services

We develop and market a software-as-a-service (“SaaS”) platform that allows non-programmers to rapidly design and build native mobile applications for smartphones and tablets. Our flagship product is the MobileSmith® Platform (the “Platform”). Platform related services often include data integration and training. We also provide consulting services, which include assistance with design and implementation of mobile strategy, implementation of mobile marketing strategy and the development of mobile apps.

Mode of Operations

In our business model – the customers acquire access to the Platform through user subscription agreements and are able to obtain control of mobile app production. We often refer to our business model as platform-as-a-service ("PaaS"), because we not only offer cloud software to create mobile apps, we offer infrastructure to host the newly created mobile apps and back-office tools to manage those apps. Out Platform is a truly comprehensive offering and thus more accurately described by the PaaS model. In the industry and this report terms SaaS and PaaS may be used interchangeably as common reference to cloud computing model.

Our business model allows for creation and management of any desired number of apps by our customers for a monthly subscription fee. The on-demand PaaS model developed using multi-tenant architecture enables end users to visit a website and use the PaaS applications, all via a web browser, with no installation, no special information technology knowledge and no maintenance. The PaaS application is transformed into a service that can be used anytime and anywhere by the end user. Multi-tenant PaaS applications also permit us to add needed functionality to our applications in one location for the benefit of all end users. This capability allows us to provide upgrades universally.

During 2014, for the first time we installed our Platform in a local or a private cloud configuration for one of our government clients. Our Platform was safely placed behind the firewalls of a government department which would allow the organization to create and manage multiple mobile apps with targeted functionality for targeted audiences without going outside of the secure setting.

Target Market and Sales Channels

We believe that the do-it-yourself model for creation and management of apps will become a cost effective solution for enterprise clients who have an ever increasing need to interact with their customers and employees through mobile devices. Single apps may reach their limits of usability very quickly, if made complex. The Platform provides the subscriber with the capacity to create multiple, customized non-template apps with designated functionalities and specific designs without incurring additional costs.

Our market penetration strategy focuses on three distinct sectors:

Healthcare clients:

Healthcare organizations, such as hospitals and healthcare networks, follow departmental segmentation and focus on a specific territorial reach. Additionally, healthcare organizations are subject to increased regulation as a result of the Affordable Care Act and may be subject to penalties for delivering inefficient care under new Medicare regulations. Hospitals increasingly turn to portfolios of apps to increase efficiency and remain competitive. Outpatient care apps, wellness apps, physician referral apps, appointment apps, discharge apps, facility way-finding apps are just a few example areas where healthcare organizations are increasingly using app portfolios. We believe that the Platform has a significant competitive advantage in the healthcare space due to its ability to deliver a variety of targeted mobile solutions cost effectively.

Enterprise clients:

The third sector combines all other large and multi-national enterprise clients, where large-scale customization based on functionality or territory is of the highest value, and other contributors such as time to market, technology reach, and ease of use play important roles. These target clients may include large food chains, media and PR companies, software solutions providers, hardware manufacturers, mortgage brokers and real estate franchises.

Government:

We believe that the Platform has a unique capability to service various structures within federal, state and local governments, as government structure is highly segmented by function and territory. In addition, the Platform can be safely placed behind the firewalls of individual departments, where data security is a primary concern. Replicating the Platform and placing it behind a secure firewall would allow an organization to create and manage multiple mobile apps with targeted functionality for targeted audiences without going outside of the secure firewall.

Principal Customers

We had one customer in 2014 and two in 2015 that accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s revenues. Due to fact that revenue generated in both years is low in comparison to overall operating costs, we believe that the loss of any of those customers would not have a significant impact on results of operations.

Research and Development

In 2015 we continued to enhance the Platform with various functionalities sought by current and target customers. We continuously monitor such demand, rapidly develop the functionalities and make them available to all our customers, current and future.

During 2015, we introduced the following upgrades to the Platform:

●

Capability for our customers to securely connect an app to enterprise back-end systems via REST services (web based architecture commonly used to transfer data among devices over the internet). This REST connector allows more flexible use cases in our Platform, but, more importantly, allows customers to create apps using data managed by their own security and IT teams. Implementation of REST will allow MobileSmith to address the needs to large enterprise clients

●

Implementation of a user authentication connector supporting OAuth 2.0, a standard for authentication that allows both MobileSmith and its client to create mobile apps, that will display app user specific content.

●

The Platform has been redesigned to offer a better user experience to our customers, both in app creation and design and app content management.

We incurred research and development expenses of approximately $1.4 million and $1.2 million in 2015 and 2014, respectively.

Competition

Generally, three principal solutions exist for enterprises in need of a mobile native (non-HTML 5) application, (a native app is compiled in code that is designed to run specifically on a mobile device and take advantage of all technical aspects of a smart phone; HTML 5 app is a web-site with user interface of an app):

●	A customer may hire an enterprise software application vendor and outsource the creation of a mobile app based on the defined specifications. A customer often does not have control over the creation of the final product and any subsequent modifications of the delivered product.

●

A large company with existing in-staff development teams may acquire a subscription to a Mobile Application Development Platform (“MADP”). MADP space is represented by the following solutions: HP’s Anywhere Mobile Development Platform, SAP’s Sybase Unwired Platform, IBM’s Worklight, KONY Solutions, Appcelerator, and Xamarin(now part of Microsoft). Customers that use an MADP have full control over creation of the mobile apps, but are required to have developers on staff.

●

A company may subscribe to one of several do-it-yourself platforms (“DIY platforms”). Customers that use a DIY platform have full control over the app creation process and developer knowledge is not required to produce those apps. Current DIY platforms predominantly have narrow specializations (e.g., event app creation platforms).

MobileSmith differentiates itself from its competition because:

●	The Platform allows for creation of apps with sophisticated functionality; and

●

The Platform is designed for use by non-developers. The primary users of the Platform within our customers’ organizations are marketing and designer teams – individuals who have the best understanding of the behavior and demands of the end users of the apps – those who actually download the apps on their phones.

Intellectual Property

During 2014, we stopped pursuing the majority of our patent applications as we determined that the cost of pursuing them to be greater than the potential protection to be provided by them. Nevertheless, we do have several patent applications that were filed prior to our change of patent strategy.

We have several trademark applications pending with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office. These trademarks, if granted, will cover certain names that identify specifics of the Platform user interface.

Employees

As of December 31, 2015, we had 33 full time employees and no part time employees. None of our employees are subject to collective bargaining agreements.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

The following risk factors, among others, could affect our actual results of operations and could cause our actual results to differ materially from those expressed in forward-looking statements made by us. These forward-looking statements are based on current expectations and except as required by law we assume no obligation to update this information. You should carefully consider the risks described below and elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K before making an investment decision. Our business, financial condition or results of operations could be materially adversely affected by any of these risks. Our common stock is considered speculative and the trading price of our common stock could decline due to any of these risks, and you may lose all or part of your investment. The following risk factors are not the only risk factors facing the Company. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also affect our business.

Historically, we have operated at a loss, and we continue to do so.

We have had recurring losses from operations and continue to have negative cash flows. If we do not become cash flow positive through additional financing or growth, we may have to cease operations and liquidate our business.

We are dependent on existing and other investors for the financing of our operations and their inability or unwillingness to fund our operations can have a material adverse effect on our operations.

We have not yet achieved positive cash flows from operations, and our main source of operating funds is the sale of notes under two convertible note facilities that we implemented. See Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis “Liquidity and Capital Resources”. Since November 2007 and through the date of this report, we have raised approximately $37 million through these note facilities and we have the ability to raise up to an additional $36 million under such facilities from existing note holders and others upon request. However, no assurance can be provided that we will in fact be able to raise needed amounts through the facilities or through any other sources on commercially reasonable terms. If financing through the note facilities becomes unavailable, we will need to seek other sources of funding. The inability to raise additional funds when needed, whether through the note facilities or otherwise, may have a material adverse effect on our operations.

A Default by us in respect of the amounts outstanding on the notes outstanding under the note facilities and the commercial bank loans when due in 2016 would enable these creditors to foreclose on our assets.

The Notes currently outstanding under the Convertible Note Facilities, which together with interest accrued as of the date of this report on Form 10-K aggregate approximately $37 million, come due in November 2016. In addition, we have an outstanding Loan and Security Agreement (the “LSA”) with Comerica Bank in the amount of $5,000,000, which matures in June of 2016 and is secured by an extended irrevocable letter of credit issued by UBS AG (Geneva, Switzerland) (“UBS AG”) with a renewed term expiring on May 31, 2016, which term is renewable for one year periods, unless notice of non-renewal is given by UBS AG at least 45 days prior to the then current expiration date. The provision of any such notice by UBS will constitute an event of default under the LSA, at which time all amounts outstanding under the LSA will become due and payable. As of the date of this report on Form 10-K, no such notice has been provided to us nor have we been provided with any indication that we are to receive notice of non-renewal of the letter of credit.

Unless we can defer payment on the notes or such notes are in fact converted into our common stock, of which no assurance can be provided, we will need to find other sources of funding to pay the amounts that are scheduled to come due in November 2016. We also have no commitment from any funding source should UBS elect to not renew the letter of credit. We can also provide no assurance that will be successful in extending the due of the amounts outstanding under the LSA beyond June 2016.

Furthermore, the amounts under the LSA as well as approximately $31 million under the Notes, are secured by a lien on our assets. A default by us under these notes or the LSA would enable these creditors to foreclose on our assets. Additionally, the non-renewal of the letter of credit securing the UBS note, which is currently scheduled to expire on May 31, 2016, would also trigger an event of default under the LSA as well as the outstanding notes. Any foreclosure could force us to substantially curtail or cease our operations.

Our independent registered public accounting firm indicates that it has substantial doubt that we can continue as a going concern. Our independent registered public accounting firm’s opinion may negatively affect our ability to raise additional funds, among other things. If we fail to raise sufficient capital, we will not be able to implement our business plan, we may have to liquidate our business, and you may lose your investment.

Cherry Bekaert LLP, our independent registered public accounting firm, has expressed substantial doubt in its report included within this Annual Report on Form 10-K about our ability to continue as a going concern given our recurring losses from operations and deficiencies in working capital and equity, which are described in the first risk factor above. This report could materially limit our ability to raise additional funds by issuing new debt or equity securities or otherwise. If we fail to raise sufficient capital, we will not be able to implement our business plan, we may have to liquidate our business, and you may lose your investment. You should consider our independent registered public accounting firm’s report when determining if an investment in us is suitable.

The delivery of software via the SaaS business model is more vulnerable to cyber-crime than the sale of pre-packaged software.

Our service involves the storage and transmission of customers’ proprietary information. If our security measures are breached as a result of third-party action, employee error, malfeasance or otherwise and, as a result, unauthorized access is obtained to our customers’ data or our data, our reputation could be damaged, our business may suffer, and we could incur significant liability. In addition, third parties may attempt to fraudulently induce employees or customers to disclose sensitive information such as user names, passwords, or other information in order to gain access to our customers’ data or our data, which could result in significant legal and financial exposure and a loss of confidence in the security of our service that would harm our future business prospects. Because the techniques used to obtain unauthorized access, or to sabotage systems, change frequently and generally are not recognized until launched against a target, we may be unable to anticipate these techniques or to implement adequate preventative measures. If an actual or perceived breach of our security occurs, the market perception of the effectiveness of our security measures could be harmed and we could lose sales and customers.

Our business is currently dependent on the success of a single product, the Platform, and related services.

Our business model is dependent on the commercial success of the Platform. Our future financial performance and revenue growth will depend on acceptance by the market of our vision that mobile app development by a non-developer will become a mainstream solution for businesses of all sizes. Our growth is dependent on the introduction of new features to the Platform and innovation in the area of mobile app development solutions for a wide range of customers.

Government regulation may subject us to liability or require us to change the way we do business.

The laws and regulations that govern our business change rapidly. Evolving areas of law that are relevant to our business include privacy and security laws, proposed encryption laws, content regulation, information security accountability regulation, sales and use tax laws and regulations and attempts to regulate activities on the Internet. In addition to being directly subject to certain requirements of the HIPAA privacy and security regulations, we are required through contracts with our customers known as “business associate agreements” to protect the privacy and security of certain personal and health related information. We are required to comply with revised requirements under the HIPAA privacy and security regulations. The rapidly evolving and uncertain regulatory environment could require us to change how we do business or incur additional costs. Further, we cannot predict how changes to these laws and regulations might affect our business. Failure to comply with applicable laws and regulations could subject us to civil and criminal penalties, subject us to contractual penalties, including termination of our customer agreements, damage our reputation and have a detrimental impact on our business.

Our propriety rights may prove difficult to enforce.

Our Platform technology is not patent protected and is not exclusive to us, as there are various platforms in the market that allow for creation of mobile apps, ranging from “do it yourself” platforms for creation of template apps to platform tools designed for use by developers. Although we consider our Platform unique, that it allows for creation of sophisticated mobile apps by non-developers, there is no guarantee that another company will not build a similar platform.

Furthermore, many key aspects of networking technology are governed by industry wide standards, which are usable by all market entrants. Although we are not dependent on any individual patents or group of patents for particular segments of the business for which we compete, if we are unable to protect our proprietary rights to the totality of the features (including aspects of products protected other than by patent rights) in a market, we may find ourselves at a competitive disadvantage to others who need not incur the substantial expense, time, and effort required to create innovative products that have enabled us to be successful.

We may be found to infringe on intellectual property rights of others.

Third parties, including customers, may in the future assert claims or initiate litigation related to exclusive patent, copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property rights to technologies and related standards that are relevant to us. Because of the existence of a large number of patents in the mobile apps field, the secrecy of some pending patents, and the rapid rate of issuance of new patents, it is not economically practical or even possible to determine in advance whether a product or any of its components infringes or will infringe on the patent rights of others. The asserted claims and/or initiated litigation can include claims against us or our manufacturers, suppliers, or customers, alleging infringement of their proprietary rights with respect to our existing or future products or components of those products. Regardless of the merit of these claims, they can be time-consuming, result in costly litigation and diversion of technical and management personnel, or require us to develop a non-infringing technology or enter into license agreements. Where claims are made by customers, resistance even to unmeritorious claims could damage customer relationships. There can be no assurance that licenses will be available on acceptable terms and conditions, if at all, or that our indemnification by our suppliers will be adequate to cover our costs if a claim were brought directly against us or our customers. Furthermore, because of the potential for high court awards that are not necessarily predictable, it is not unusual to find even arguably unmeritorious claims settled for significant amounts. If any infringement or other intellectual property claim made against us by any third party is successful, if we are required to indemnify a customer with respect to a claim against the customer, or if we fail to develop non-infringing technology or license the proprietary rights on commercially reasonable terms and conditions, our business, operating results, and financial condition could be materially and adversely affected.

Our exposure to risks associated with the use of intellectual property may be increased as a result of acquisitions, as we have a lower level of visibility into the development process with respect to such technology or the care taken to safeguard against infringement risks.

Officers, directors, principal stockholders and other related parties control us. This might lead them to make decisions that do not align with interests of minority stockholders.

Our principal stockholders beneficially own or control a large percentage of our outstanding common stock. Certain of these principal stockholders hold Notes, which may be exercised or converted into additional shares of our common stock under certain conditions. The Noteholders have designated a bond representative to act as their agent. We have agreed that the bond representative shall be granted access to our facilities and personnel during normal business hours, shall have the right to attend all meetings of the Board of Directors and its committees, and shall receive all materials provided to the Board of Directors or any committee. In addition, so long as the Notes are outstanding, we have agreed that we will not take certain material corporate actions without approval of the bond representative.

Our principal stockholders, acting together, would have the ability to control substantially all matters submitted to our stockholders for approval (including the election and removal of directors and any merger, consolidation, or sale of all or substantially all of our assets) and to control our management and affairs. Accordingly, this concentration of ownership may have the effect of delaying, deferring, or preventing a change in control of us; impeding a merger, consolidation, takeover, or other business combination involving us; or discouraging a potential acquirer from making a tender offer or otherwise attempting to obtain control of us, which in turn could materially and adversely affect the market price of our common stock.

Mr. Avy Lugassy controls Grasford Investments Ltd. (“Grasford”). As of December 31, 2015, Grasford holds 8,830,269, or 45%, of Company’s issued and outstanding common stock and approximately $13.83 million in aggregate principal amount of our promissory notes, which are currently convertible at the election of the holder into approximately an additional 9,668,729 shares of common stock. Being a significant beneficial owner of our company, Mr. Lugassy may exercise significant influence on the Company’s operations acting through the Company’s Board of Directors.

In addition, as of December 31, 2015, Union Bancaire Privée (“UBP”) holds $20,817,180 million in aggregate principal amount of the Notes. Because UBP may convert its Notes upon request, if UBP so converts, it would acquire a significant percentage of our then outstanding shares of common stock and, like Grasford, would be able to exercise significant influence on the Company’s operations as a result.

Future utilization of net operating loss carryforwards may be limited.

In accordance with Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, a change in equity ownership of greater than 50% of the Company within a three-year period can result in an annual limitation on the Company’s ability to utilize its net operating loss carryforwards that were created during tax periods prior to the change in ownership. A change in ownership may result from the issuance of shares of the Company’s common stock pursuant to conversion of the Notes or any other event that would result in the issuance of common or preferred shares of the Company, among other events.

The executive management team is critical to the execution of our business plan, and the frequency of management turnover has been disruptive to the success of our business.

In past three years we had a consistent team of dedicated executives who continue to execute on the Board’s strategy. However, in the past our executive management team has experienced significant changes, including the resignation of our former Chief Executive Officer in May 2013 and our former interim Chief Executive Officers in May 2009, November 2009 and September 11, 2012.

In 2012, our former Chief Operating Officer resigned. Our former Chief Financial Officers resigned in May 2009 and April 2013.

The 2012 resignations relate to change in focus of the Company from e-commerce to mobile space.

The 2013 resignations relate to the current Chairman of the Board, Mr. Amir Elbaz, taking over as Chief Executive Officer of the Company with a mission of implementing a strategic development and growth plan for our mobile business. During 2013, all legacy operations of domain hosting and e-commerce were discontinued.

If we cannot attract and retain qualified personnel and/or integrate new members of our executive management team effectively into our business, then our business and financial results may suffer. In addition, all of our executive team works at the same location, which could make us vulnerable to the loss of our entire team in the event of a natural or other disaster. We do not maintain any significant key man insurance policies on any of our employees.

Any future issuance of our shares of common stock could have a dilutive effect on the value of our existing shares of common stock.

The conversion price on our outstanding convertible promissory notes is fixed at $1.43. As of December 31, 2015 we had $31,055,000 of Notes outstanding convertible into 25,248,251 shares of common stock. As we continue to issue more notes, the number of conversion shares will increase.

As of the date of this report, the Company does not have sufficient shares of common stock authorized to issue all of the shares of common stock into which all the Notes may be converted. It is Company’s plan to call for a special meeting of shareholders in 2016 to increase the number of authorized shares. In addition, if a Noteholder submits notice of conversion and there is not sufficient number of shares available for issuance upon conversion, a Noteholder may request that the Company call a special meeting of the stockholders specifically for the purpose of increasing the number of the authorized shares of common stock at that time.

The ability of our Board of Directors to issue additional stock may prevent or make more difficult certain transactions, including a sale or merger of the Company.

Our Board of Directors will be authorized to issue up to 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock with powers, rights and preferences designated by it Shares of voting or convertible preferred stock could be issued, or rights to purchase such shares could be issued, to create voting impediments or to frustrate persons seeking to effect a takeover or otherwise gain control of the Company. The ability of the Board of Directors to issue such additional shares of preferred stock, with rights and preferences it deems advisable, could discourage an attempt by a party to acquire control of the Company by tender offer or other means. Such issuances could therefore deprive stockholders of benefits that could result from such an attempt, such as the realization of a premium over the market price for their shares in a tender offer or the temporary increase in market price that such an attempt could cause. Moreover, the issuance of such additional shares of preferred stock to persons friendly to the Board of Directors could make it more difficult to remove incumbent officers and directors from office even if such change were to be favorable to stockholders generally.

There currently is no active public market for our Common Stock and there can be no assurance that an active public market will ever develop. Failure to develop or maintain a trading market could negatively affect the value of our Common Stock and make it difficult or impossible for you to sell your shares.

There is currently no active public market for shares of our Common Stock and one may never develop. Our Common Stock is quoted on the OTC Markets, QB Tier. The OTC Markets is a thinly traded market and lacks the liquidity of certain other public markets with which some investors may have more experience. Our shares of common stock are traded infrequently. In the 252 trading days for the year ended December 31, 2015, only 45,300 of our shares of common stock were traded, which resulted in an average daily volume of approximately 179 shares. Even an insignificant investment in our shares of common stock may be illiquid.

We may not ever be able to satisfy the listing requirements for our Common Stock to be listed on a national securities exchange, which is often a more widely-traded and liquid market. Some, but not all, of the factors which may delay or prevent the listing of our Common Stock on a more widely-traded and liquid market include the following: our stockholders’ equity may be insufficient; the market value of our outstanding securities may be too low; our net income from operations may be too low; our Common Stock may not be sufficiently widely held; we may not be able to secure market makers for our Common Stock; and we may fail to meet the rules and requirements mandated by the several exchanges and markets to have our Common Stock listed. Should we fail to satisfy the initial listing standards of the national exchanges, or our Common Stock is otherwise rejected for listing, and remains listed on the OTC Markets or is suspended from the OTC Markets, the trading price of our Common Stock could suffer and the trading market for our Common Stock may be less liquid and our Common Stock price may be subject to increased volatility, making it difficult or impossible to sell shares of our Common Stock.

Penny Stock Regulation are applicable to investment in shares of our Common Stock.

Broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in "penny stocks" are regulated by certain penny stock rules adopted by the SEC. Penny stocks generally are equity securities with a price of less than $5.00 (other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges, provided that current prices and volume information with respect to transactions in such securities are provided by the exchange or system). Penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document that provides information about penny stocks and the risks in the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction, and monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer's account. In addition, penny stock rules generally require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock, the broker-dealer make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's written agreement to the transaction. These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in the secondary market for a stock that becomes subject to penny stock rules. Many brokers will not deal with penny stocks, restricting the market for our shares of common stock.

We do not intend to pay any cash dividends on our shares of Common Stock; thus our stockholders will not be able to receive a return on their shares unless they sell them.

We intend to retain any future earnings to finance the development and expansion of our business. We do not anticipate paying any cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future. Unless we pay dividends, our stockholders will not be able to receive a return on their shares unless they sell them.

ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS

Not applicable.

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES

We do not own any real property. The Company's corporate office in Raleigh North Carolina consists of approximately 7,000 square feet. The lease term for the premises commenced in July 2013 and continues through December 2018. The lease contains an option to renew for two, three-year terms.

Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that the total rent expense to be incurred over the term of the lease be recognized on a straight-line basis. Deferred rent represents the cumulative excess of the straight-line expense over the payments made. The average annual rent expense over the term of the lease is approximately $156,000.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

We are not involved in any pending legal proceedings that we anticipate would result in a material adverse effect on our business or operations.

ITEM 4. MINE SAFETY DISCLOSURES

Not applicable.

PART II

ITEM 5. MARKET FOR REGISTRANT’S COMMON EQUITY, RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS AND ISSUER PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES

Our common stock is currently quoted on the OTC Market (OTC.QB) under the symbol “MOST.” Although trading in our Common Stock has occurred on a relatively consistent basis, the volume of shares traded has been sporadic. There can be no assurance that an established trading market will develop, that the current market will be maintained or that a liquid market for our Common Stock will be available in the future. Investors should not rely on historical stock price performance as an indication of future price performance.

The following table shows the quarterly high and low bid prices for our Common Stock over the last two completed fiscal years as quoted on the OTC Market (OTC.QB). The prices represent quotations by dealers without adjustments for retail mark-ups, mark-downs or commission and may not represent actual transactions.

	High	Low

Year Ended December 31, 2014:
First Quarter	$1.30	$1.10
Second Quarter	$1.32	$1.00
Third Quarter	$2.00	$1.15
Fourth Quarter	$1.22	$0.51


Year Ended December 31, 2015:
First Quarter	$1.95	$.65
Second Quarter	$1.75	$1.01
Third Quarter	$1.75	$.61
Fourth Quarter	$1.60	$1.00

As of March 15, 2016 there were 162 holders of record of shares of our common stock.

Dividend Policy

We have never declared or paid any cash dividends on shares of our common stock and do not intend to declare or pay dividends for the foreseeable future. As long as the Notes are outstanding, we must receive approval from the bond representative designated by the Noteholders in order to pay any dividend on shares of our common stock.

Issuer Repurchases of Equity Securities

We do not have a stock repurchase program for our common stock and have not otherwise purchased any shares of our common stock.

Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities

The following paragraphs set forth certain information with respect to all securities sold by us during the three months ended December 31, 2015 without registration under the Securities Act.

Between October 1 and December 31, 2015, we issued two convertible promissory notes under the 2014 NPA in the aggregate principal amount of $1,300,000.

The financing was completed through a private placement and is exempt from registration pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. In claiming the exemption under Section 4(a)(2), the Company relied in part on the following facts: (1) the offer and sale involved one purchaser that holds other notes of the Company; (2) the purchaser had access to information regarding the Company; (3) the purchaser represented that it (a) had the requisite knowledge and experience in financial and business matters to evaluate the merits and risk of an investment in the Company; (b) was able to bear the economic risk of an investment in the Company; (c) will acquire the Securities for its own account in a transaction not involving any general solicitation or general advertising, and not with a view to the distribution thereof; and (4) a restrictive legend will be placed on each certificate or other instrument evidencing the Securities.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

This discussion summarizes significant factors affecting the operating results, financial condition and liquidity of MobileSmith for the two-year period ended December 31, 2015. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in Part II, Item 8 “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data” of this Annual Report on Form 10-K and the more detailed discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations in conjunction with the risks described in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Overview

Mobile Apps Industry Developments

The mobile application industry has experienced significant growth in 2015. 72 percent of U.S. adults now report owning a smartphone, according to Pew Research. In 2016, smartphone users will account for nearly four out of five mobile phone users, according to eMarketer. Smartphone market in the U.S. has reached maturity, with smartphone shipments growth expected to drop to single digits in 2016. Phablets (large phones) now account for 20% of all smartphone volumes, according to a recent IDC report.

In contrast to a few years back, when games or media companies dominated apps, app publishers now come from every industry: banking, retail, healthcare, and government agencies. Supported by venture capital and hedge funds, the app industry has generated a lot of market value and $41 Billion in global revenue, according to App Annie.

The mobile health industry, one of the key focus industries for MobileSmith, has grown considerably in 2015. The number of consumers who use mobile health apps has doubled - from 16 percent in 2014 to 33 percent today, and the number of consumers who use health wearables increased from 9 percent to 21 percent during the same time, according to an Accenture 2016 Consumer Survey on Patient Engagement. Consumers most frequently use health apps for fitness (cited by 59 percent), diet/nutrition (52 percent), symptom navigation (36 percent) and accessing their patient portal (28 percent). A vast majority (90 percent) of consumers said they would be willing to share wearable or app data with medical providers.

Accenture also found that 66 percent of the 100 largest U.S. hospitals offer mobile apps for their patients. 38 of those 100 hospitals have developed health apps in-house rather than by hiring a mobile app vendor. However, only 2 percent of patients utilize those branded hospital apps, as most of such in-house developed apps deliver poor user experience, inadequate user engagement. We believe, that improved user experience, user engagement, and app marketing will become top priorities in 2016 for branded hospital app development. MobileSmith, as a major provider of mobile development tools to healthcare industry will continue to capitalize on its expert knowledge in patient user experience, user engagement and its ability to shorten the time of app delivery to market.

While hospital apps continue to be a primary growth target for MobileSmith, federal agencies and retail organizations are emerging as an area of strong focus. Federal government is intensifying citizen engagement programs and looking to Mobile App Development Platforms (MADPs) as a cost-effective way to deliver public-facing apps. Retail shopping apps are now the fastest-growing app category in the U.S., and a necessary tool for ensuring competitive advantage in the marketplace.

Financing Activities and Sources of Cash

Since November 14, 2007 and through the present time, we have financed our working capital deficiency primarily through the issuance of our promissory notes under two convertible note facilities. The first, established in November 2007, is evidenced by the Convertible Secured Subordinated Note Purchase Agreement, dated November 14, 2007, as amended (as so amended, the “2007 NPA”) and the second, established in December 2014, is evidenced by the unsecured Convertible Subordinated Note Purchase Agreement (the “2014 NPA” together with the 2007 NPA, the “Convertible Note Facilities”)) with Union Bancaire Privée, UBP SA ("UBP"). All references in this filing to “2007 NPA Notes” will mean notes issued under the 2007 NPA and all references to “2014 NPA” Notes will mean notes issued under the 2014 NPA. All references to the Notes will mean any convertible note or notes issued either under 2007 or 2014 NPAs.

Since November 14, 2007 and through December 10, 2014, we have financed our working capital deficiency primarily with the issuance of Notes under the 2007 NPA. On December 11, 2014 the Company entered into the 2014 NPA and issued its first 2014 NPA Note to UBP. We intend to primarily use our 2014 NPA for future issuance of convertible notes.

During 2015, we borrowed a total of $5,050,000 under the 2014 NPA. The aggregate balance of the Notes as of December 31, 2015 was $34,044,128, net of discount of $2,055,302. The Notes under both NPAs mature on November 14, 2016.

Amounts outstanding under the 2007 NPA are secured by a lien on all of our assets.

The table below summarizes convertible notes issued as of December 31, 2015 by NPA type:

Convertible Notes Type:	Balance

2007 NPA notes, net of discount	$28,499,698
2014 NPA notes, net of discount	5,544,430
Total convertible notes	$34,044,128

The 2014 NPA was signed on December 11, 2014. The aggregate principal amount of the 2014 NPA Notes that may be issued under the 2014 NPA is limited to $40.0 million. The 2014 NPA Notes are convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share, and are subordinated to the $5.0 million outstanding under the Company’s Loan and Security Agreement (the “LSA”) with Comerica Bank and to any convertible secured subordinated promissory notes outstanding under the Company’s existing 2007 NPA.

Convertible notes issued under 2014 NPA:

The 2014 NPA Notes have the following terms:

●	a maturity date of the earlier of (i) November 14, 2016, (ii) a Change of Control (as defined in the 2014 NPA), or (iii) when, upon or after the occurrence of an Event of Default (as defined in the 2014 NPA), such amounts are declared due and payable by a noteholder or made automatically due and payable in accordance with the terms of the Note;

●	an interest rate of 8% per year, with accrued interest payable in cash in quarterly installments commencing on the third month anniversary of the date of issuance of the Note with the final installment payable on the maturity date of the Note;

●	a conversion price per share that is fixed at $1.43;

●	optional conversion upon noteholder request; provided that, if at the time of any such request, the Company does not have a sufficient number of shares of common stock authorized to allow for such conversion, the noteholder may only convert that portion of their Notes outstanding for which the Company has a sufficient number of authorized shares of common stock. To the extent multiple noteholders under the 2014 NPA, the 2007 NPA, or both, request conversion of its Notes on the same date, any limitations on conversion shall be applied on a pro rata basis. In such case, the noteholder may request that the Company call a special meeting of its stockholders specifically for the purpose of increasing the number of shares of common stock authorized to cover conversions of the remaining portion of the Notes outstanding as well as the maximum issuances contemplated pursuant to the Company’s 2004 Equity Compensation Plan, within 90 calendar days after the Company’s receipt of such request; and

●	may not be prepaid without the consent of holders of at least two-thirds of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Notes issued under the 2014 NPA.

2014 modification of 2007 NPA

On May 12, 2014, the Company entered into the Seventh Amendment to the 2007 NPA and the Fifth Amendment to 2007 NPA Notes (the “Seventh Amendment to the 2007 NPA”), with the holders of a majority of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the 2007 NPA Notes issued by the Company under the 2007 NPA (collectively, the “2007 NPA Noteholders”) (the “2014 modification”). The Seventh Amendment to the 2007 NPA applied to all of the 2007 NPA Notes outstanding as of May 12, 2014, or $28,205,000, and will apply to any future 2007 NPA Notes sold by the Company. As amended, the 2007 NPA Notes have the following terms:

●	a maturity date of the earlier of (i) November 14, 2016, (ii) a Change of Control (as defined in the amended 2007 NPA), or (iii) when, upon or after the occurrence of an Event of Default (as defined in the amended 2007 NPA) such amounts are declared due and payable by a 2007 NPA Noteholder or made automatically due and payable in accordance with the terms of the 2007 NPA;
●	an interest rate of 8% per year;
●	a total borrowing commitment of $33.3 million;
●	a conversion price that is fixed at $1.43; and
●	optional conversion upon 2007 NPA Noteholder request, provided that, if at the time of any such request, the Company does not have a sufficient number of shares of common stock authorized to allow for such conversion as well as the issuance of the maximum amount of common stock permitted under the Company’s 2004 Equity Compensation Plan, the 2007 NPA Noteholder may request that the Company call a special meeting of its stockholders specifically for the purpose of increasing the number of shares of common stock authorized to cover the remaining portion of the Notes outstanding as well as the maximum issuances permitted under the 2004 Equity Compensation Plan.

The 2014 modification of the aggregate principal balance of 2007 NPA Notes issued prior to the 2013 modification dated June 28, 2013, or $23,075,000, was accounted for as debt extinguishment in accordance with provisions of ASC 470 “Debt”. The fair value of the new debt was determined to be $21,404,018. The difference between the carrying value of the debt balance prior to the 2014 modification and the fair value of the new debt was recorded as debt discount in the amount of $1,670,982 and will be charged to interest expense over the remaining life of the debt. $22,344,231 of the modified $23,075,000 balance was related party debt and $730,769 was non-related party debt. For the related party portion of the debt, the Company recorded a capital contribution in the amount of $1,620,852 with a charge to Additional Paid-in Capital; the non-related party debt modification resulted in a $50,129 gain on extinguishment of debt.

The 2014 modification of the aggregate principal balance of 2007 NPA Notes issued after 2013 modification, but prior to the 2014 modification, or $5,130,000, with a net carrying amount of $922,202 immediately prior to the 2014 modification resulted in a troubled debt restructuring treatment where no gain or loss was recognized due to the fact that the carrying amount of the debt balance was less than total future cash payments specified by the terms of the debt remaining unsettled after the modification.

IDB Credit Facility and Comerica LSA

On June 9, 2014, the Company refinanced the IDB Credit Facility with a new financial institution by entering into the LSA with Comerica. The Company borrowed the entire amount available under the LSA ($5,000,000) and used those proceeds to repay the IDB Credit Facility in full.

The LSA, which matures in June of 2016, is secured by an extended irrevocable letter of credit issued by UBS AG (Geneva, Switzerland) with a renewed term expiring on May 31, 2016, which term is renewable for one year periods, unless notice of non-renewal is given by UBS AG at least 45 days prior to the then current expiration date. The provision of any such notice by UBS will constitute an event of default under the LSA, at which time all amounts outstanding under the LSA will become due and payable. As of the date of this report on Form 10-K, no such notice has been provided to us nor have we been provided with any indication that we are to receive notice of non-renewal of the letter of credit.

COMPARISON OF THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2015 AND THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2014

Comparison of Operating Results

MobileSmith more than doubled its revenue for the third consecutive year. We added 27 new customers in 2015 compared to 20 customers added in 2014.

Results of Operations

	Year Ended December 31,		Increase (Decrease)
	2015	2014	$	%
Revenue	1,820,806	879,086	941,720	107%
Cost of Revenue	458,599	475,486	(16,887)	(4%)
Gross Profit (Loss)	1,362,207	403,600	958,607	238%

Sales and Marketing	1,175,636	962,123	213,513	22%
Research and Development	1,427,172	1,167,263	259,909	22%
General and Administrative	1,231,137	1,354,449	(123,312)	(9%)
Impairment of Long Lived Assets, Net	7,020	66,186	(59,166)	(89%)

Interest Expense	5,241,236	4,418,468	822,768	19%

Revenue increased by $941,720, or 107%. As the Platform matures, we continue to add new features and extend our market penetration, expand our customer base and retain larger customers with broader ranges of needs in the mobile space who enter into more significant contracts. Included in the total revenue in 2015 was approximately $162,939 of professional services revenue generated from several of our subscription clients. Such revenue was $39,460 in 2014. The professional services consisted of implementation of advanced Platform features, advanced data integration, mobile app development and mobile consulting. Our workforce capacity to provide professional services is rather limited, that is why we don’t have a standard professional services offering. From time to time we offer those services to clients that we perceive to have strategic, market penetration or other perceived value. In the future we may evaluate a concept of outsourcing some of the professional services work to our trained, certified and vetted partners. We don’t expect professional services revenue to be a significant share of our total revenue in the future.

Cost of Revenue decreased by $16,887, or 4%. Net payroll and related costs component of Cost of Revenue decreased by $74,000 due to reorganization of our Product team and creation of Customer Success team. The above net payroll decrease was offset by $63,000 increase in costs associated with delivery of Professional Services revenue.

Gross Profit increased by $958,607, or 238%. In a SaaS model, the cost to deliver revenue increases at a much smaller rate than revenue itself. As we retain current customers and acquire new customers, our gross profit is expected to increase.

Sales and Marketing expense increased by $213,513, or 22%. This increase is attributable to approximately $89,000 in commissions due to increased sales, and referral fees paid in 2015. Sales payroll increased by approximately $27,000 due to growth in the team size. Sales related travel increased by approximately $30,000. Non-payroll marketing expenditure increased by $69,000, as budgeted.

Research and Development increased by $259,909, or 22%. An increase of approximately $163,000 is attributable to an internal reorganization within the workforce that expanded our Product team and shifted its focus from customer facing revenue generating activities to research and development. The remainder of the increase relates to a general increase in base compensation expense, incentive compensation expense and workforce additions to our development team. We believe that the current composition of the Company’s development team is sufficient for implementation of our research and development strategy and to support our growth.

General and Administrative expense decreased by $123,312, or 9%, primarily due to a decrease in fees paid for legal and professional services and bank fees.

Interest expense increased by $822,768, or 19%. $386,677 of the increase was attributable to the increase in face value of our debt and remaining $436,091 of the increase was due to the increase in debt discount amortization.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We have not yet achieved positive cash flows from operations, and our main source of funds for our operations is the sale of our notes under the Convertible Note Facilities. We need to continue to rely on this source until we are able to generate sufficient cash from revenues to fund our operations or obtain alternate sources of financing. We believe that anticipated cash flows from operations, and additional issuances of Notes, of which no assurance can be provided, together with cash on hand, will provide sufficient funds to finance our operations at least for the next 12 months from the date of this report. Changes in our operating plans, lower than anticipated sales, increased expenses, or other events may cause us to seek additional equity or debt financing in future periods. There can be no guarantee that financing will be available to us under the Convertible Note Facilities or otherwise on acceptable terms or at all. Additional equity and convertible debt financing could be dilutive to the holders of shares of our common stock, and additional debt financing, if available, could impose greater cash payment obligations and more covenants and operating restrictions.

Nonetheless, there are factors that can impact our ability to continue to fund our operating the next twelve months. These include:

●	Our ability to expand revenue volume;

●	Our ability to maintain product pricing as expected, particularly in light of increased competition and its unknown effects on market dynamics;

●	Our continued need to reduce our cost structure while simultaneously expanding the breadth of our business, enhancing our technical capabilities, and pursing new business opportunities.

In addition, if UBS were to elect to not renew the irrevocable letter of credit issued by it beyond May 31, 2016, the currently scheduled expiration date, then such non-renewal will result in an event of default under the LSA, at which time all amounts outstanding under the LSA will become due and payable. Currently, the letter of credit is automatically extended for one year periods, unless notice of non-renewal is given by UBS AG at least 45 days prior to the then current expiration date. As of the date of this report on Form 10-K, no such notice has been provided to us nor have we been provided with any indication that we are to receive notice of non-renewal of the letter of credit.

All notes issued under the 2007 and 2014 NPAs mature on November 14, 2016. In an initial discussion that took place in January of 2016, the Bondholders’ representative and some of the Bondholders indicated their willingness and ability to extend the maturity of the 2007 and 2014 NPAs by two years.

Comerica LSA matures on June 9, 2016 and the Company is currently in discussions with Comerica Bank to extend the maturity of LSA by similar terms for two additional years. The management of the company believes that it will be able to extend maturity dates or refinance all of its debt maturing in 2016 on similar terms.

Uses of Cash

During the year ended December 31, 2015, we used in operating activities approximately $7.0 million, which was offset by $2.3 million in cash collected from our customers; of which approximately $3.0 million was used to pay interest payments on the Notes and bank debt; approximately $2.8 million was used for payroll, benefits and related costs; approximately $477,000 was used on non-payroll related sales and marketing efforts, such as tradeshows and marketing campaigns and approximately $675,568 was used for other non-payroll development and general and administrative expenses, which included among other things infrastructure costs, rent, insurance, legal, professional, compliance and other expenditures.

During the year ended December 31, 2014, we used in operating activities approximately $5.9 million, which was offset by $1.1 million in cash collected from our customers; of which approximately $2.3 million was used to pay interest payments on the Notes and bank debt; approximately $2.5 million was used for payroll, benefits and related costs; approximately $330,000 was used on non-payroll related sales and marketing efforts, such as tradeshows and marketing campaigns and approximately $740,000 was used for other non-payroll development and general and administrative expenses, which included among other things infrastructure costs, rent, insurance, legal, professional, compliance and other expenditures.

Capital Expenditures and Investing Activities

Our capital expenditures are limited to the purchase of new office equipment and new mobile devices that are used for testing. Cash used for investing activities was not significant and we do not plan any significant capital expenditures in the near future.

Going Concern

Our independent registered public accounting firm has issued an emphasis of matter paragraph in their report included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K in which they express substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts or classification of liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern. Our continuation as a going concern depends on our ability to generate sufficient cash flows to meet our obligations on a timely basis, to obtain additional financing that is currently required, and ultimately to attain profitable operations and positive cash flows. There can be no assurance that our efforts to raise capital or increase revenue will be successful. If our efforts are unsuccessful, we may have to cease operations and liquidate our business.

Critical accounting policies and estimates

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to revenue recognition, bad debts, intangible assets and income taxes. Our estimates are based on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

We have identified the accounting policies below as critical to our business operations and the understanding of our results of operations.

Revenue Recognition, Deferred Revenue and Multiple Element Arrangements

We follow U.S. GAAP principles of revenue recognition, which allows recognizing revenue only: (a) when an arrangement exists; (b) when the Company delivered its obligations under such arrangement; (c) when the fees are fixed or determinable; and (d) when collection of the fees billed is reasonably assured. Certain customers prepay the annual subscription fees at the beginning of the term. In such instances a deferred revenue liability is recorded on our balance sheet and the revenue is recognized as obligations under the agreement are fulfilled by us. Often Mobilesmith’s contracts combine various types of deliverables such as subscription fees and various professional services. Such Multiple-Element Arrangements are broken out into separate units of accounting aligned with various deliverables within the arrangement. The value of each deliverable within the arrangement is determined based on the best estimate of selling price (“BESP”) and the assigned value of each unit of accounting is recognized in revenue as individual obligations are delivered.

Sale of software takes place when the Company sells perpetual license to the Platform through installation in a private cloud. Revenue recognition begins when all elements of the agreement, besides post-contract customer support, are delivered (including installation). The software revenue is recognized ratably over the period of post-contract customer support.

Recoverability and Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

We evaluate the recoverability of our long-lived assets every reporting period or whenever events and circumstances indicate that the value may be impaired.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Directors and

Stockholders of MobileSmith, Inc.

Raleigh, North Carolina

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of MobileSmith, Inc. (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ deficit, and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2015. The Company’s management is responsible for these consolidated financial statements. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the 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 consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. The company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control 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 control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements, 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, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2015, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations and has a working capital deficiency as of December 31, 2015. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans concerning these matters are described in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2015 AND 2014

1.	SUMMARY OF BUSINESS AND DESCRIPTION OF GOING CONCERN

Description of Business and Going Concern

MobileSmith, Inc. (referred to herein as the “Company,” “us,” “we,” or “our”) was incorporated as Smart Online, Inc. in the State of Delaware in 1993. The Company changed its name to MobileSmith, Inc. effective July 1, 2013. The Company develops software products and services and targets businesses whose need is to connect with their stakeholders (customers, employees, broader public) through a variety of mobile devices and do so with the fastest time to market possible, while by-passing the need to write a single line of code. The Company’s flagship product is the MobileSmith® Platform (the “Platform”). The Platform is an innovative app development platform that enables organizations to rapidly create, deploy, and manage custom, native smartphone and tablet apps deliverable across iOS and Android mobile platforms without writing a single line of code.

These consolidated financial statements include accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, which was created to explore the concept of a consumer targeted mobile app development platform. From time to time, the Company may create additional wholly-owned subsidiaries in order to test various new services as a part of its research and development process. This subsidiary has not had material activity in 2014 or 2015.

The Company’s principal products and services include:

●	Subscription to its Software as a Service (“SaaS”) cloud based mobile app development platform to customers who design and build their own apps;

●	Dedicated internal and secure mobile development platform for the U.S. Department of Defense and related contractors;

●	Custom mobile application design and development services;

●	Mobile application marketing services; and

●	Mobile strategy implementation consulting.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. During the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, the Company incurred net losses, as well as negative cash flows from operations, and at December 31, 2015 and 2014, had deficiencies in working capital. These factors indicate that the Company may be unable to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts or classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

The Company’s continuation as a going concern depends upon its ability to generate sufficient cash flows to meet its obligations on a timely basis, to obtain additional financing as may be required, and ultimately to attain profitable operations and positive cash flows. Since November 2007, the Company has been funding its operations, in part, from the proceeds of the issuance of notes under a convertible secured subordinated note facility which was established in 2007, as well as, an unsecured convertible subordinated note facility established in 2014. As of December 31, 2015, the Company had $36,105,000 of face value outstanding under these facilities and the Company is entitled to sell to the investors additional notes under these facilities in an amount not exceeding $36,995,000 when requested to by the Company, subject to the terms and conditions specified in these facilities. There can be no assurance that the Company will in fact be able to raise additional capital through these facilities or even from other sources on commercially acceptable terms or at all.

The Notes under 2007 and 2014 NPA are mature in November of 2016 and the Comerica LSA matures in June of 2016. The Company management is actively negotiating extension of maturity on the 2007 and 2014 NPAs by at least two years and refinancing of Comerica LSA by extending its maturity.

F-7

2.	SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“US GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions in the Company’s financial statements and notes thereto. Significant estimates and assumptions made by management include the determination of the best estimate of selling price of the deliverables included in multiple-deliverable revenue arrangements, deferral of certain revenues, share-based compensation, allowance for accounts receivable, estimated useful lives of property and equipment, recoverability of capitalized software asset and other long lived assets and fair value of convertible debt including gain on debt extinguishment. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

US GAAP requires disclosures of fair value information about financial instruments, whether or not recognized in the balance sheet, for which it is practicable to estimate that value. Due to the short period of time to maturity, the carrying amounts of cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, and notes payable reported in the financial statements approximate the fair value.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

All highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less are considered to be cash equivalents. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) covers $250,000 for substantially all depository accounts. The Company from time to time may have amounts on deposit in excess of the insured limits.

Revenue Recognition

The Company derives revenue primarily from subscription services charged to customers accessing the Platform and, to a much lesser degree, professional services provided in connection with subscription services.

The Company recognizes revenues when the following criteria have been met:

●	persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists;

●	delivery has occurred;

●	the fees are fixed or determinable; and

●	collection is considered reasonably assured.

Subscription Revenues

Subscription revenues are recognized ratably over the contract term of the arrangement beginning on the date that our service is made available to the customer. Amounts that have been invoiced are recorded in revenue or deferred revenue, depending on whether the revenue recognition criteria have been met.

Software Revenue

Professional Services Revenues

Professional services revenues consist of fees for professional services, which relate to app design and development, training, system implementation and data integration, mobile application marketing services, and mobile strategy implementation consulting. These revenues are recognized as the services are rendered for time and material contracts and when the milestones are achieved and accepted by the customer for fixed-fee contracts.

F-8

Multiple-Element Arrangements

The Company evaluates each element in a multiple-element arrangement to determine whether it represents a separate unit of accounting. In order to account for deliverables in a multiple-deliverable arrangement as separate units of accounting, the deliverables must have standalone value upon delivery.

In determining whether professional service revenues have standalone value, the Company considers availability of professional services from other vendors, the nature of the Company’s professional services, and whether the Company sells professional services to customers without the subscription.

When multiple deliverables are included in an arrangement are separable into different units of accounting, the arrangement consideration is allocated to the identified separate units of accounting based on their relative selling price. Multiple-deliverable arrangements accounting guidance provides a hierarchy to use when determining the relative selling price for each unit of accounting.

Vendor-specific objective evidence (“VSOE”) of selling price, based on the price at which the item is regularly sold by the vendor on a standalone basis, should be used if it exists.

If VSOE of selling price is not available, third-party evidence (“TPE”) of selling price is used to establish the selling price if it exists. If VSOE of selling price and TPE of selling price are not available, then the best estimate of selling price (“BESP”) is to be used. VSOE and TPE do not currently exist for any of the Company’s deliverables. Accordingly, the Company uses its BESP to determine the relative selling price.

The Company determines its BESP for its deliverables based on its overall pricing objectives, taking into consideration market conditions and entity-specific factors. The Company evaluates its BESP by reviewing historical data related to sales of its deliverables. Total consideration under the contract is allocated to each of the separate units of accounting through application of the relative selling price method.

Deferred Revenue

Deferred revenue consists of billings or payments received prior to the date when revenue is recognized.

Cost of Revenues

Cost of revenues includes salaries of customer support teams, costs of infrastructure that supports the Platform, expenses for outsourced work to fulfill the contracted work, and amortization charges for the Platform.

Concentration of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consist primarily of cash and accounts receivable. The Company places its cash and cash equivalents on deposit with financial institutions in the United States. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation covers $250,000 for substantially all depository accounts. The Company from time to time may have amounts on deposit in excess of the insured limits.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability or failure of its customers to make required payments. The need for an allowance for doubtful accounts is evaluated based on specifically identified amounts that management believes to be potentially uncollectible. If actual collections experience changes, revisions to the allowance may be required.

F-9

Property and Equipment

The Company records property and equipment at cost and provides for depreciation and amortization using the straight-line method for financial reporting purposes over the estimated useful lives. The estimated useful lives by asset classification are as follows:

Computer hardware and office equipment	5 years
Computer software	5 years
Furniture and fixtures	5 years
Leasehold improvements	Shorter of the estimated useful life or the lease term

Software Development Costs

The Company capitalized certain costs of development and subsequent enhancement of the Platform through the middle of 2013. The Company started capitalizing software development costs when technological feasibility of the Platform or its enhancements had been established. The Company expensed costs associated with preliminary project stage and research activities. The Company’s policy provided for the capitalization of certain payroll, benefits, and other payroll-related costs for employees who were directly associated with development.

During 2012, the Platform was substantially completed. During 2013, the Company’s development efforts became more driven by market requirements and rapidly changing customers’ needs. As a result, the Company’s development team adopted the Agile iterative approach to software development. Due to Agile’s short development cycles and focus on rapid production, the Company ceased capitalizing software development costs mid-way through 2013 as the documentation produced under the Agile method did not meet requirements necessary to establish technological feasibility. No development costs were capitalized in 2014 or 2015 and the Company does not expect to capitalize substantial development costs in the future.

Intangible Assets

Intangible assets consist of the perpetual license for critical Platform software, costs associated with the Company’s patent filings and other acquired intangible assets. The Company also owns several copyrights and trademarks related to products, names, and logos used throughout its non-acquired product lines.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company evaluates the recoverability of its long-lived assets every reporting period or whenever events and circumstances indicate that the value may be impaired.

During 2015, the Company recorded a loss on impairment of intangible assets in the amount of $7,020, mostly related to impairment of previously capitalized software, which were replaced with new functionality in our Platform.

Advertising Costs

Advertising costs consist primarily of industry related tradeshows and marketing campaigns. Advertising costs are expensed as incurred, or the first time the advertising takes place, applied consistently based on the nature of the advertising activity. The amounts related to advertising during 2015 and 2014 were $342,718 and $284,677, respectively.

F-10

Share-Based Compensation

The Company measures share-based compensation cost at the grant date based on the fair value of the award. The Company recognizes compensation cost on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period. The requisite service period is generally three years. The compensation cost is recognized net of estimated forfeiture activity.

The fair value of option grants under the Company’s equity compensation plan during the year ended December 31, 2013 was estimated using the following weighted-average assumptions:

Dividend yield	0.00	%
Expected volatility	188.00	%
Risk-free interest rate	1.43	%
Expected lives (years)	4.00

The Company did not grant share-based compensation in 2014 and 2015.

Net Loss Per Share

Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the periods. Diluted net loss per share is computed using the weighted average number of common and dilutive common equivalent shares outstanding during the periods. Shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of Convertible Subordinated Promissory Notes (the “Notes”) and exercise of share-based awards are excluded from the calculation of the weighted average number, because the effect of the conversion and exercise would be anti-dilutive.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

The Company evaluates new significant accounting pronouncements at each reporting period. For the year ended December 31, 2015, the Company did not adopt any new pronouncement that had or is expected to have a material effect on the Company’s presentation of its consolidated financial statements.

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2014-9 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). This guidance requires an entity to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. This guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and early adoption is not permitted. The Company will adopt this standard in fiscal year 2018 and is currently assessing its impact.

In August 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2014-15 Presentation of Financial Statements – Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40) effective for the Company starting with fiscal year 2016. The standard extends going concern assessment to management of the Company by standardizing and codifying the assessment in the accounting standards, whereas previously such assessment requirements were documented in the auditing standards literature. The Standard is not expected to have significant impact on the Company until such time when the substantial doubt to continue as a going concern in regards to the Company is alleviated, if and when alleviated.

The FASB's new leases standard ASU 2016-02 Leases (Topic 842) was issued on February 25, 2016. ASU 2016-02 is intended to improve financial reporting about leasing transactions. The ASU affects all companies and other organizations that lease assets such as real estate, airplanes, and manufacturing equipment. The ASU will require organizations that lease assets, referred to as "Lessees", to recognize on the balance sheet the assets and liabilities for the rights and obligations created by those leases. An organization is to provide disclosures designed to enable users of financial statements to understand the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. These disclosures include qualitative and quantitative requirements concerning additional information about the amounts recorded in the financial statements. Under the new guidance, a lessee will be required to recognize assets and liabilities for leases with lease terms of more than 12 months. Consistent with current GAAP, the recognition, measurement, and presentation of expenses and cash flows arising from a lease by a lessee primarily will depend on its classification as a finance or operating lease. However, unlike current GAAP, which requires only capital leases to be recognized on the balance sheet, the new ASU will require both types of leases (i.e. operating and capital) to be recognized on the balance sheet. The FASB lessee accounting model will continue to account for both types of leases. The capital lease will be accounted for in substantially the same manner as capital leases are accounted for under existing GAAP. The operating lease will be accounted for in a manner similar to operating leases under existing GAAP, except that lessees will recognize a lease liability and a lease asset for all of those leases.

Public companies will be required to adopt the new leasing standard for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption will be permitted for all companies and organizations upon issuance of the standard. For calendar year-end public companies, this means an adoption date of January 1, 2019 and retrospective application to previously issued annual and interim financial statements for 2018 and 2017. See Notes 5 and 6 for the Company's current lease commitments. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact that this new leasing ASU will have on its financial statements.

F-11

Fair Value Measurements

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The value hierarchy prescribed by the accounting literature contains three levels as follows:

Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 – Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices 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.

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. Level 3 assets and liabilities include financial instruments whose value is determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimations.

Convertible Notes Overview

Since November 14, 2007 and through December 10, 2014, the Company financed its working capital deficiency primarily through the issuance of its notes (the “2007 NPA Notes”) under the Convertible Secured Subordinated Note Purchase Agreement, dated November 14, 2007, as amended (as so amended, the “2007 NPA”). On December 11, 2014 the Company entered into an unsecured Convertible Subordinated Note Purchase Agreement (the “2014 NPA”) with Union Bancaire Privée, UBP SA ("UBP").

During 2015, the Company raised gross proceeds of $5,050,000 from the private placement to UBP under 2014 NPA (the “2014 NPA Note”).

The table below summarizes convertible notes issued as of December 31, 2015 by type:

Convertible Notes Type:	Balance

2007 NPA notes, net of discount	$28,499,698
2014 NPA notes, net of discount	5,544,430
Total convertible notes	$34,044,128

Convertible notes issued under 2014 NPA

The aggregate principal amount of convertible unsecured subordinated promissory notes (the “2014 NPA Notes”) that may be issued under the 2014 NPA is $40 million. The 2014 NPA Notes are convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share, and are subordinated to the $5 million outstanding under the Company’s Loan and Security Agreement (the “LSA”) with Comerica Bank and to any convertible secured subordinated promissory notes outstanding under the Company’s existing 2007 NPA program.

The 2014 NPA Notes have the following terms:

●	a maturity date of the earlier of (i) November 14, 2016, (ii) a Change of Control (as defined in the 2014 NPA), or (iii) when, upon or after the occurrence of an Event of Default (as defined in the 2014 NPA), other than for a bankruptcy related, such amounts are declared due and payable by at least two-thirds of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the 2014 NPA Notes;

●	an interest rate of 8% per year, with accrued interest payable in cash in quarterly installments commencing on the third month anniversary of the date of issuance of the 2014 NPA Note with the final installment payable on the maturity date of the note;

●	a conversion price per share that is fixed at $1.43;

●	optional conversion upon noteholder request; provided that, if at the time of any such request, the Company does not have a sufficient number of shares of common stock authorized to allow for such conversion, the noteholder may only convert that portion of their Notes outstanding for which the Company has a sufficient number of authorized shares of common stock. To the extent multiple noteholders under the 2014 NPA, the 2007 NPA, or both, request conversion of its notes on the same date, any limitations on conversion shall be applied on a pro rata basis. In such case, the noteholder may request that the Company call a special meeting of its stockholders specifically for the purpose of increasing the number of shares of common stock authorized to cover conversions of the remaining portion of the notes outstanding as well as the maximum issuances contemplated pursuant to the Company’s 2004 Equity Compensation Plan, within 90 calendar days after the Company’s receipt of such request; and

●	may not be prepaid without the consent of holders of at least two-thirds of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of 2014 NPA Notes.

Convertible notes issued under 2007 NPA

During 2014 and 2013, several modifications were made to the 2007 NPA.

F-15

2014 modification of 2007 NPA

On May 12, 2014, the Company entered into the Seventh Amendment to 2007 NPA and the Fifth Amendment to 2007 NPA Notes (the “Seventh Amendment to 2007 NPA”), with the holders of a majority of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the 2007 NPA. The Seventh Amendment to 2007 NPA applied to all of the 2007 NPA Notes outstanding as of May 12, 2014, or $28,205,000, and will apply to any future 2007 NPA Notes issued by the Company. As amended, the 2007 NPA Notes have the following terms:

●	a maturity date of the earlier of (i) November 14, 2016, (ii) a Change of Control (as defined in the amended 2007 NPA), or (iii) when, upon or after the occurrence of an Event of Default (as defined in the amended 2007 NPA) such amounts are declared due and payable by a 2007 NPA Noteholder or made automatically due and payable in accordance with the terms of the 2007 NPA;
●	an interest rate of 8% per year;
●	a total borrowing commitment of $33.3 million;
●	a conversion price that is fixed at $1.43; and
●	optional conversion upon 2007 NPA Noteholder request, provided that, if at the time of any such request, the Company does not have a sufficient number of shares of common stock authorized to allow for such conversion, as well as the issuance of the maximum amount of common stock permitted under the Company’s 2004 Equity Compensation Plan, the 2007 NPA Noteholder may request that the Company call a special meeting of its stockholders specifically for the purpose of increasing the number of shares of common stock authorized to cover the remaining portion of the Notes outstanding as well as the maximum issuances permitted under the 2004 Equity Compensation Plan.

The 2014 modification of the aggregate principal balance of 2007 NPA Notes issued after 2013 modification, but prior to the 2014 modification, or $5,130,000, with a net carrying amount of $922,202 immediately prior to the 2014 modification, resulted in a troubled debt restructuring treatment where no gain or loss was recognized due to the fact that the carrying amount of the debt balance was less than total future cash payments specified by the terms of the debt remaining unsettled after the modification.

Fair Value of Convertible Notes under 2014 modification

The modified convertible debt instrument with a face value of $23,075,000, accounted for as debt extinguishment, was recorded with a fair value of $21,404,018. The Company used a binomial model to determine the fair value of the instrument. The binomial model method uses significant unobservable inputs and falls within the Level III measurement method in accordance with the Fair Value Hierarchy under ASC 820 “Fair Value Measurements.”

The significant unobservable inputs and information used to develop those inputs include the following:

●	volatility of stock price was determined to be 47% and was based on the Company’s historical volatility;

●	risk free rate of 1.41%;

●	credit spread over the risk free rate was determined to be approximately 20%, which was derived from a combination of the credit spread of CCC rated bonds with added premium for lack of marketability of the convertible instrument;

●	nodes of the binomial model were extended for 2.5 years, which approximates the time period until maturity of the convertible instrument;

●	conversion price was fixed at $1.43 per share.

IDB Credit Facility and Comerica LSA

The Company had an outstanding promissory note with Israel Discount Bank (“IDB”) dated December 6, 2010 that had a maturity date of May 31, 2014 (the “IDB Credit Facility”). Borrowings under the IDB Credit Facility were guaranteed by Atlas Capital SA (“Atlas”) and subsequent to the merger between Atlas and Mirelis InvesTrust SA (“Mirelis”), by Mirelis. The IDB Credit Facility was further secured by an extended irrevocable standby letter of credit (“SBLC”) issued by UBS Private Bank with an expiration date of November 30, 2015. The Company received confirmation that it will not be required to re-pay any fees associated with previous or future guarantees of the Company's bank loan through issuance of the SBLC by UBS. As such, in 2014 the Company reversed previously accrued fees associated with the issuance of the SBLC in the IDB transaction and recorded a $169,861 gain on reversal of previously recorded liabilities.

The LSA with Comerica has the following terms:

	●		a maturity date of June 9, 2016;
	●		a variable interest rate at prime plus 0.6% (3.85% on the date of execution) payable quarterly;
	●		secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company, including the Company’s intellectual property;
	●		secured by an extended irrevocable SBLC issued by UBS AG (Geneva, Switzerland) (“UBS AG”) with an initial term expiring on May 31, 2015, which term is automatically renewable for one year periods, unless notice of non-renewal is given by UBS AG at least 45 days prior to the then current expiration date (no such notice has been given and SBLC was extended to expire on May 31, 2016); and
	●		acceleration of payment of all amounts due thereunder upon the occurrence and continuation of certain events of default, including but not limited to, failure by the Company to perform its obligations, observe the covenants made by it under the LSA, failure to renew the UBS AG SBLC, and insolvency of the Company.

The IDB to Comerica loan transfer in 2014 was accounted for under the guidance of ASC 470 “Debt” as debt extinguishment. The $12,500 in bank fees that the Company paid to Comerica in connection with entering into the LSA was recorded as loss on extinguishment. The approximately $30,000 in legal fees were deferred as deferred financing costs and are charged to interest expense over the life of the LSA.

Capital Leases

On September 4, 2009, the Company entered into a sale transaction whereby it sold its computer equipment, furniture, fixtures and certain personal property located at its former principal executive offices in Durham, North Carolina (collectively, the “Equipment”) on an “as-is, where-is” basis to the holders of the Company’s Notes, on a ratable basis in proportion to their respective holdings of Notes, for $200,000 (“Purchase Price”). The Purchase Price was paid through a $200,000 reduction, on a ratable basis, in the outstanding aggregate principal amount of the Notes. The Purchase Price represented the fair market value of the Equipment based on an independent appraisal.

The payments on the lease are made monthly. The balance of the lease as of December 31, 2015 was $92,270.

F-17

In September 2013 the Company purchased furniture for its new office by execution of a five-year non-cancellable lease, which is accounted for as a capital lease. The unpaid balance on the lease as of December 31, 2015 is $22,368.

Legal Proceedings

The Company may be subject to legal proceedings and litigation arising in the ordinary course of business, including, but not limited to, certain pending patent and privacy matters, including class action lawsuits, as well as inquiries investigations, audits and other regulatory proceedings.

The Company will record a liability when it believes that it is both probable that a loss has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated. The Company periodically evaluates developments in its legal matters that could affect the amount of liability that it has previously accrued, if any, and makes adjustments as appropriate. Significant judgment is required to determine both the likelihood of there being, and the estimated amount of, a loss related to such matters, and the Company’s judgment may be incorrect. The outcome of any proceeding is not determinable in advance. Until the final resolution of any such matters that the Company may be required to accrue for, there may be an exposure to loss in excess of the amount accrued, and such amounts could be material.

7.	STOCKHOLDERS’ DEFICIT

Common Stock

The Company is authorized to issue 45,000,000 shares of common stock, $0.001 par value per share. As of December 31, 2015, the Company had 19,827,542 shares of common stock outstanding. Holders of the Company’s shares of common stock are entitled to one vote for each share held.

Preferred Stock

The Board of Directors is authorized, without further stockholder approval, to issue up to 5,000,000 shares of $0.001 par value preferred stock in one or more series and to fix the rights, preferences, privileges, and restrictions applicable to such shares, including dividend rights, conversion rights, terms of redemption, and liquidation preferences, and to fix the number of shares constituting any series and the designations of such series. There were no shares of preferred stock outstanding at December 31, 2015 and 2014.

Equity Compensation Plans

2004 Equity Compensation Plan

The Company adopted its 2004 Equity Compensation Plan (the “2004 Plan”) as of March 31, 2004. The 2004 Plan provides for the grant of incentive stock options, non-statutory stock options, restricted stock, and other direct stock awards to employees (including officers) and directors of the Company as well as to certain consultants and advisors. The total number of shares of common stock reserved for issuance under the 2004 Plan is 5,000,000 shares, subject to adjustment in the event of a stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, or similar capital change. The Company can’t make any new grants under the plan

Incentive stock options typically have a maximum term of 10 years, except for option grants to 10% stockholders, which are subject to a maximum term of five years. Non-statutory stock options have a term determined by either the Board of Directors or the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. Options granted under the plans are not transferable, except by will and the laws of descent and distribution.

8.	INCOME TAXES

The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method in accordance with the requirements of US GAAP. Under the asset and liability method, deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences of “temporary differences” by applying enacted statutory tax rates applicable to future years to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and the tax bases of existing assets and liabilities.

The balances of deferred tax assets and liabilities are as follows:

	December 31,	December 31,
	2015	2014
Net current deferred income tax assets related to:
Allowance for doubtful accounts	$81,000	$84,000
Depreciation and amortization	141,000	140,000
Impairment charges	30,000	18,000
Stock-based compensation expenses	91,000	91,000
Accrued liabilities	11,000	11,000
Other	7,000	7,000
Net operating loss carryforwards	33,617,000	31,580,000
Total	33,978,000	31,931,000
Less valuation allowance	(33,978,000)	(31,931,000)
Net current deferred income tax	$-	$-

Under US GAAP, a valuation allowance is provided when it is more likely than not that the deferred tax asset will not be realized.

Total income tax expense related to continuing operations differs from expected income tax expense (computed by applying the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate of 34% to profit (loss) before taxes) as follows:

	Year Ended	Year Ended
	December 31,	December 31,
	2015	2014

Tax benefit computed at statutory rate of 34%	$(2,623,749)	$(2,495,000)
State income tax benefit, net of federal effect	(351,428)	(334,000)
Permanent differences
Stock based compensation	32,861	30,000
Debt discount amortization	900,294	732,000
Other	(4,978)	(18,000)
Change due to increase in NOL carryforward from 15 to 20 years	-	(861,000)
Change in valuation allowance - continuing operations	2,047,000	2,946,000
Totals	$-	$-

F-21

As of December 31, 2015, the Company had U.S. federal net operating loss (“NOL”) carryforwards of approximately $82 million, which expire between 2018 and 2038. For state tax purposes, the NOL carryforwards expire between 2016 and 2031. In accordance with Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, a change in equity ownership of greater than 50% of the Company within a three-year period can result in an annual limitation on the Company’s ability to utilize its NOL carryforwards that were created during tax periods prior to the change in ownership.

The Company has reviewed its tax positions and has determined that it has no significant uncertain tax positions at December 31, 2015.

9.	MAJOR CUSTOMERS AND CONCENTRATIONS

A customer that individually generates more than 10% of revenue is considered a major customer.

For the year ended December 31, 2015, two customers accounted for 27% of the Company’s revenue. Three customers accounted for 72% of net accounts receivable balance as of December 31, 2015.

For the year ended December 31, 2014, one customer accounted for 20% of the Company’s revenue. Two customers accounted for 79% of net accounts receivable balance as of December 31, 2014.

10.	EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLAN

All full time employees who meet certain age and length of service requirements are eligible to participate in the Company’s 401(k) Plan. The plan provides for contributions by the Company in such amounts as the Board of Directors may annually determine, as well as a 401(k) option under which eligible participants may defer a portion of their salaries. The Company contributed a total of $28,000 and $23,236 to the plan during 2015 and 2014, respectively.

11.	SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Subsequent to December 31, 2015, the Company sold one 2014 NPA Note to UBP in the total amount of $1,000,000 on the same terms as the currently outstanding 2014 NPA Note. The note matures on November 14, 2016.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures for the quarter ended December 31, 2015. The term “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, as ours are designed to do, and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Based on such evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of December 31, 2015, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f). Our internal control system was designed to provide reasonable assurance to our management and the Board of Directors regarding the preparation and fair presentation of published financial statements.

Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that:

(i)	pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets;

(ii)	provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors; and

(iii)	provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation.

In making the assessment of adequate internal control over financial reporting, our management used the criteria issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013). Based on that assessment and those criteria, management believes that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2015.

During our fourth quarter ended December 31, 2015, there were no changes made in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
