Basis of Consolidation

The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2015 and the condensed consolidated statements of operations, statements of comprehensive income, and cash flows for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, are unaudited and reflect all adjustments of a normal recurring nature that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the interim period financial statements. The interim condensed consolidated financial statements are derived from the audited financial statements as of December 31, 2014.

The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. have been condensed or omitted. The significant accounting policies followed by the Company are set forth within the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 (the “2014 Form 10-K”). There were no changes in the Company’s significant accounting policies during the three and six months ended June 30, 2015. In addition, the Company reaffirms the use of estimates in the preparation of the financial statements as set forth in the 2014 Form 10-K. These interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the 2014 Form 10-K. The results for the operations for the period ended June 30, 2015 may not be indicative of the results for the period ending December 31, 2015.

Foreign Currency Translation

The Company is exposed to foreign currency fluctuations due to its foreign operations and because products are sold internationally. The functional currency for the Company’s foreign operations is predominantly the applicable local currency. Accounts of foreign operations are translated into U.S. dollars using the exchange rate in effect at the applicable balance sheet date for assets and liabilities and average monthly rates prevailing during the period for revenue and expense accounts. Adjustments resulting from translation are included in accumulated other comprehensive income, a separate component of stockholders’ equity. Gains and losses resulting from other transactions originally in foreign currencies and then translated into U.S. dollars are included in the condensed consolidated statement of operations. Net foreign exchange losses resulting from foreign currency transactions included in other income, net were $21 and $8 for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Net foreign exchange losses resulting from foreign currency transactions included in other income, net were $27 and $47 for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

Recent Accounting Guidance

In August 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-15, which requires management to assess whether there is substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern for each annual and interim period. If conditions or events give rise to substantial doubt, disclosures are required. The new accounting standard is effective as of December 31, 2016, and the Company does not expect it to have an impact on its financial statement disclosures.

In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-12, Accounting for Share-Based Payments When the Terms of an Award Provide That a Performance Target Could Be Achieved after the Requisite Service Period. ASU 2014-12 was issued to clarify that a performance target in a share-based payment that affects vesting and that could be achieved after the requisite service period should be accounted for as a performance condition under Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 718, Compensation—Stock Compensation. As a result, the target is not reflected in the estimation of the award’s grant date fair value. Compensation cost would be recognized over the required service period, if it is probable that the performance condition will be achieved. The adoption of ASU No. 2014-12 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09 which introduces a new five-step revenue recognition model in which an entity should 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 ASU also requires disclosures sufficient to enable users to understand the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers, including qualitative and quantitative disclosures about contracts with customers, significant judgments and changes in judgments, and assets recognized from the costs to obtain or fulfill a contract. The FASB has voted to approve a one-year deferral of the effective date from January 1, 2017 to January 1, 2018, while allowing for early adoption as of January 1, 2017. The new accounting standard is expected to have an impact to the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The Company is currently reviewing its arrangements to evaluate the impact and method of adoption.

In April 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-08, which includes amendments that change the requirements for reporting discontinued operations and require additional disclosures about discontinued operations. Under the new guidance, only disposals representing a strategic shift in operations—that is, a major effect on the organization’s operations and financial results should be presented as discontinued operations. Examples include a disposal of a major geographic area, a major line of business, or a major equity method investment. Additionally, the ASU requires expanded disclosures about discontinued operations that will provide financial statement users with more information about the assets, liabilities, income, and expenses of discontinued operations. This update took effect in the first quarter of 2015. The new guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

2. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company follows accounting guidance for fair value measurements and disclosures. To measure fair value, the Company refers to a hierarchy that requires it to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. A financial instruments categorization within the hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The three levels of input that may be used to measure fair value are as follows:

Level 1: inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2: inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of 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.

Cash equivalents are measured at fair value and investments are recognized at amortized cost in the Company’s financial statements. Accounts receivable and other investments are financial assets with carrying values that approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of these assets. Accounts payable is a financial liability with a carrying value that approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of these liabilities.

3. Earnings per Share

The following table is the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share:

4. Cash, Cash Equivalents and Investments

The Company’s cash and investments consisted of the following:

Cash and Cash equivalents

At June 30, 2015, cash and cash equivalents included bank balances and investments with original maturities less than 90 days. At June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the Company’s cash equivalents were invested in highly liquid AAA money market funds that are required to comply with Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act of 1940. Such funds utilize the amortized cost method of accounting, seek to maintain a constant $1.00 per share price, and are redeemable upon demand. The Company restricts its investments in AAA money market funds to those invested 100% in either short-term U.S. government agency securities or bank repurchase agreements collateralized by these same securities. The fair values of these money market funds are established through quoted prices in active markets for identical assets (Level 1 inputs). The cash in the Company’s U.S. banks is insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to the insurable amount of $250.

At June 30, 2015, the Company had $15.8 million in cash and $0.4 million in cash equivalents and at December 31, 2014, the Company had $19.7 million in cash and $0.7 million in cash equivalents. The Company had $1.0 million and $0.5 million of cash and cash equivalents in foreign bank accounts at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. As of June 30, 2015, the Company has no intentions of repatriating the cash in its foreign bank accounts. If the Company decides to repatriate the cash in the foreign bank accounts, it may experience difficulty in doing so in a timely manner. The Company may also be exposed to foreign currency fluctuations and taxes if it repatriates these funds. The Company’s cash in its foreign bank accounts is not insured.

11

Investments

At June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the Company’s short-term investments consisted of pre-refunded municipal bonds, U.S. government agency bonds, AA or higher rated corporate bonds, and certificates of deposit classified as held-to-maturity. At June 30, 2015 the Company had invested $9.6 million in pre-refunded municipal bonds, $8.4 million in U.S. government agency bonds, $4.4 million in certificates of deposit, and $2.7 million in AA rated or higher corporate bonds. The income and principal from the pre-refunded municipal bonds are secured by an irrevocable trust of U.S. Treasury securities. The bonds have original maturities greater than 90 days and mature in less than one year. The Company’s bonds are recorded at the purchase price and carried at amortized cost. The net unrealized gains were $9 at June 30, 2015. Approximately 15% and 5% of the Company’s bonds were protected by bond default insurance at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively.

At December 31, 2014, the Company had invested $13.5 million in U.S. government agency bonds, $11.8 million in certificates of deposit, $7.2 million in AA rated or higher corporate bond funds, $5.2 million in pre-refunded municipal bonds and taxable bond funds, and $2.0 million in mutual funds.

The Company categorizes its financial instruments within a fair value hierarchy according to accounting guidance for fair value. The fair value hierarchy is described under the Fair Value of Financial Instruments in Note 2. For the Level 2 investments, the Company uses quoted prices of similar assets in active markets.

Cash equivalents and Level 1 and Level 2 investments measured at fair value were as follows at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014:

5. Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Goodwill

The activity related to goodwill for the six months ended June 30, 2015 was as follows:

In February 2015, the Company acquired substantially all of the assets and assumed certain liabilities of Nexgen Wireless, Inc. As of June 30, 2015, the Company recorded goodwill of $4.0 million as part of provisional allocation of the purchase price. See Note 7 for additional information on the acquisition.

Intangible Assets

The Company amortizes intangible assets with finite lives on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives, which range from one to eight years. The summary of other intangible assets, net as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 are as follows:

12

The $10.3 million increase in the net book value of intangible assets at June 30, 2015 compared to December 31, 2014 reflects $12.5 million of intangible assets recorded for the purchase of the business from Nexgen, offset by restructuring charges of $0.4 million and amortization expense of $1.8 million recorded for the six months ended June 30, 2015. The restructuring charges related to the Company’s exit from the mobile towers product line. The Company wrote off the remaining intellectual property and a portion of the trade names and customer relationships from the acquisition of TelWorx in 2012. The amortization related to the assets recorded for the acquisition of the business from Nexgen was $0.7 million and $1.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, respectively.

The assigned lives and weighted average amortization periods by intangible asset category is summarized below:

The Company’s scheduled amortization expense for 2015 and the next five years is as follows:

6. Balance Sheet Information

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

Accounts receivable are recorded at invoiced amount with standard net terms that range between 30 and 90 days. The Company extends credit to its customers based on an evaluation of a customer’s financial condition and collateral is generally not required. The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated uncollectible accounts receivable. The allowance is based on the Company’s assessment of known delinquent accounts, historical experience, and other currently available evidence of the collectability and the aging of accounts receivable. The Company’s allowance for doubtful accounts was $0.1 million at June 30, 2015 and at December 31, 2014. The provision for doubtful accounts is included in sales and marketing expense in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market and include material, labor and overhead costs using the first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) method of costing. Inventories as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 were composed of raw materials, sub-assemblies, finished goods and work-in-process. The Company had consigned inventory with customers of $0.6 million and $0.8 million at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. The Company records allowances to reduce the value of inventory to the lower of cost or market, including allowances for excess and obsolete inventory. The allowance for inventory losses was $1.8 million at June 30, 2015 and $1.8 million at December 31, 2014.

13

Inventories consisted of the following:

Prepaid and Other Current Assets

Prepaid assets are stated at cost and are amortized over the useful lives (up to one year) of the assets.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost and are depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. The Company depreciates computer equipment over three to five years, office equipment, manufacturing and test equipment, and motor vehicles over five years, furniture and fixtures over seven years, and buildings over 30 years. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the corresponding lease term or useful life. Depreciation expense and gains and losses on the disposal of property and equipment are included in cost of sales and operating expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred.

Property and equipment consisted of the following:

Depreciation and amortization expense was approximately $0.8 million and $0.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and $1.5 million and $1.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Amortization for capital leases is included in depreciation and amortization expense. See Note 10 for information related to capital leases.

14

Liabilities

Accrued liabilities consisted of the following:

Long-term liabilities consist of the following:

7. Acquisitions

Business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting. In general, the acquisition method requires acquisition-date fair value measurement of identifiable assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and non-controlling interests in the acquiree. The measurement requirements result in the recognition of the full amount of acquisition-date goodwill, which includes amounts attributable to non-controlling interests. Neither the direct costs incurred to effect a business combination nor the costs the acquirer expects to incur under a plan to restructure an acquired business may be included as part of the business combination accounting. As a result, those costs are charged to expense when incurred, except for debt or equity issuance costs, which are accounted for in accordance with other generally accepted accounting principles.

Acquisition of Nexgen Wireless, Inc.

On February 27, 2015, the Company acquired substantially all of the assets of, and assumed certain specified liabilities of, Nexgen Wireless, Inc., an Illinois corporation (“Nexgen”), pursuant to an Asset Purchase Agreement dated as of February 27, 2015 (the “Nexgen APA”) among PCTEL, Inc., Nexgen, PCTEL, Nexgen, Bhumika Thakkar 2012 Irrevocable Trust Number One, Bhumika Thakkar 2012 Irrevocable Trust Number Two, and Jigar Thakkar (collectively, such trusts and Mr. Thakkar are the “Nexgen Shareholders”), and Bhumika Thakkar (collectively with Nexgen and the Nexgen Shareholders, the “Nexgen Parties”).

The business of Nexgen is based in Schaumburg, Illinois. Nexgen provides Meridian™, a network analysis tool portfolio, and engineering services. Nexgen’s Meridian software product portfolio translates real-time network performance data into engineering actions to optimize operator performance. Meridian, with its modules of Network IQ™, Subscriber IQ™, and Map IQ™, supports crowd-based, cloud-based data analysis to enhance network performance. Nexgen provides performance engineering, specialized staffing, and trend analysis for carriers, infrastructure vendors, and neutral hosts for 2G, 3G, 4G, and LTE networks.

15

The provisional purchase consideration for Nexgen was $21.5 million, consisting of $18.25 million in cash paid at closing, $2.25 million held in escrow, an estimated $0.9 million excess working capital true up to be paid in cash, and a contingency payment that was provisionally calculated with a fair value of $0.1 million. The contingent payment was dependent on the achievement of revenue-based goals pertaining to the acquired business for the period commencing on March 1, 2015 and ending on April 30, 2016. The cash consideration paid was provided from the Company’s existing cash. The assets acquired consisted primarily of customer relationships, intellectual property (including trade names), working capital (accounts receivable, work in process, accounts payable and accrued liabilities), and fixed assets. The Nexgen Parties are bound by non-competition covenants under the Nexgen APA, which generally expire on February 27, 2019. The Company calculates the fair value of the assets acquired by using a blended analysis of the present value of future discounted cash flows and the market approach of valuation. The intangible assets recorded have a weighted average amortization period of 5.0 years.

As previously reported in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on April 14, 2015, on April 7, 2015, Samsung Electronics America, Inc., as successor in interest to Samsung Telecommunications America, LLC (“Samsung”), provided Nexgen and the Company with a final notice of Samsung’s election to terminate, effective April 30, 2015, the Contractor Services Agreement, dated May 2, 2012 (the “CSA”), by and between Samsung and Nexgen. On May 5, 2015, the Company and the Nexgen Parties entered into an Amendment to Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Nexgen APA Amendment”) with the following principal terms: (a) Nexgen agreed to transfer to the Company previously excluded accounts receivable with an aggregate value of $0.8 million; (b) the aggregate amount potentially payable to the Nexgen Parties as contingent earnout consideration was reduced from $2.0 million to $1.0 million; (c) the Company waived its right to seek additional indemnification from the Nexgen Parties for matters specified therein; (d) the parties directed that $2.25 million in escrowed funds potentially payable to the Nexgen Parties pursuant to the Nexgen APA be released to the Company; (e) Mr. Thakkar relinquished a portion of the equity awards previously granted to him; (f) the Company released various potential claims against Nexgen and the Nexgen Parties with respect to the termination of the CSA and related matters; and (g) the parties agreed that the Nexgen Parties would be eligible for potential additional consideration if the acquired business achieves performance metrics set forth therein. The additional consideration is dependent on the achievement of revenue-based goals pertaining to the acquired business for the period commencing on January 1, 2016 and ending on December 31, 2016. The amendment terms were accounted for consistent with accounting for legal settlements, as there is not a clear and direct link between the settlement and the acquisition price. During June 2015, the Company received the cash from the escrow fund and the previously excluded accounts receivable. These amounts are recorded in Other Income, net in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. At June 30, 2015, the Company estimated the liability for the contingent earnout consideration at $1.0 million. The adjustment of $0.9 million from the original liability recorded for the contingent consideration was recorded as an expense in Other Income, net in the condensed consolidated statement of operations.

Approximately 78% of Nexgen’s revenue was related to the U.S. Sprint cellular network, contracted either with Samsung or Sprint directly. During due diligence, the Company modeled a likely range of future revenue and cash flow based on the high degree of customer concentration risk. While the terminated CSA represented a material portion of that revenue, the resulting total future revenue and cash flow remained within the lower range of the forecast model. The Company utilized the lower end of the forecast range in evaluating the fair value of the acquired assets. At June 30, 2015, the valuation yielded provisional goodwill of $4.0 million, of which $1.5 million is related to the assembled workforce. The goodwill is deductible for tax purposes.

The purchase accounting related to the valuation of certain tangible and intangible assets was still in process at June 30, 2015. The purchase accounting is expected to be completed by the quarter ended September 30, 2015. The following is the provisional allocation of the purchase price for the assets from Nexgen at the date of the acquisition as of June 30, 2015:

16

A reconciliation of the assets acquired with the cash paid at closing is as follows:

Mr. Jigar Thakkar, the primary founder of Nexgen, remains with the acquired business as the Company’s Vice President and Chief Technology Officer, Network Analytics, under an employment arrangement that includes non-competition covenants for the duration of his employment with PCTEL, Inc. and for 12 months thereafter (which covenants are in addition to his non-competition covenants under the Nexgen APA described above). The Company assumed Nexgen’s existing lease for Nexgen’s offices in Schaumburg, Illinois and is currently operating the acquired business from that location.

The Company does not have any material relationship with Mr. Thakkar and the other Nexgen Parties other than in respect of the Nexgen APA, the Nexgen APA Amendment, the transactions provided for therein, and Mr. Thakkar’s post-acquisition role as the Company’s Vice President and Chief Technology Officer, Network Analytics.

All of the Nexgen assets and employees were immediately integrated into the Network Engineering Services reporting unit within the RF Solutions segment. The Company recognizes revenue for the engineering services under the completed performance method. For specialized staffing, the Company recognizes revenue as services are provided to the customer.

The Company performs an annual impairment test of goodwill as of the end of the first month of the fiscal fourth quarter (October 31st), or at an interim date if an event occurs or if circumstances change that would indicate that an impairment loss may have been incurred. In performing the impairment test, the Company first performs a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value, including goodwill. If the qualitative assessment is indicative of possible impairment, then a two-step quantitative fair value assessment is performed at the reporting unit level. In the first step, the fair value of each reporting unit is compared with its carrying value. If the fair value exceeds the carrying value, then goodwill is not impaired and no further testing is performed. The second step is performed if the carrying value exceeds the fair value. The implied fair value of goodwill is then compared against the carrying value of goodwill to determine the amount of impairment.

While the resulting revenue forecast after the termination of the Samsung CSA remained within the predicted range of volatility, management performed a Step 1 quantitative goodwill test at March 31, 2015 of goodwill within the Network Engineering Services reporting unit into which the Nexgen acquisition was integrated. The results of that test yielded a discounted cash flow of enterprise value significantly higher than the reporting unit’s carrying value. The company concluded that goodwill was not impaired and no further testing was performed. Additionally, the intangible assets of the reporting unit were evaluated for impairment and the undiscounted future cash flows of each intangible asset exceeded their carrying value.

Revenues for Nexgen were $23.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2014. The Company’s results for the six months ended June 30, 2015 include the operating results for March through June 2015 for the business acquired from Nexgen. The following pro forma financial information gives effect to the acquisition of the Nexgen business as if the acquisition had taken place on January 1, 2014. The pro forma financial information for Nexgen was derived from the unaudited historical accounting records of Nexgen.

The pro forma results include adjustments for intangible amortization of $0.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and $0.4 million and $1.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The pro forma information is presented for illustrative purposes only and may not be indicative of the results that would have been obtained had the acquisition actually occurred on January 1, 2014, nor is it necessarily indicative of the Company’s future consolidated results of operations or financial position.

8. Stock-Based Compensation

The condensed consolidated statements of operations include $0.2 million and $0.7 million of stock compensation expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, respectively. Stock compensation expense for the three months ended June 30, 2015 consists of $0.6 million for restricted stock awards, $0.1 million for stock option expenses and $57 for stock purchase plan expenses, offset by an expense reversal of $0.5 million related to performance units that are not expected to vest. Stock compensation expense for the six months ended June 30, 2015 consists of $0.9 million for restricted stock awards, $0.3 million for stock option expenses and $0.1 million for stock purchase plan expenses, offset by the expense reversal of $0.5 million related to performance units that are not expected to vest.

The condensed consolidated statements of operations include $1.1 million and $1.8 million of stock compensation expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively. Stock compensation expense for the three months ended June 30, 2014 consists of $0.8 million for restricted stock awards, $0.3 million for stock option expenses and $52 for stock purchase plan expenses. Stock compensation expense for the six months ended June 30, 2014 consists of $1.1 million for restricted stock awards, $0.6 million for stock option expenses and $83 for stock purchase plan expenses.

The Company did not capitalize any stock compensation expense during the three months ended June 30, 2015 or 2014. Total stock-based compensation is reflected in the condensed consolidated statements of operations as follows:

18

Restricted Stock – Service Based

The Company grants restricted shares as employee incentives. When service-based restricted stock is granted to employees, the Company records deferred stock compensation within additional paid in capital, representing the fair value of the common stock on the date the restricted shares are granted. The Company records stock compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the vesting period of the applicable service-based restricted shares. The Company awarded 100,000 shares to Jigar Thakkar as part of his employment offer following the Nexgen acquisition in the first quarter of 2015. These shares cliff vest two years from the grant date. The 2014 annual service-based awards were granted in March 2014. These grants vest over various periods, but typically vest over four years. The 2015 annual service-based awards were granted to eligible employees in June 2015.

The following table summarizes restricted stock activity for the six months ended June 30, 2015:

The intrinsic value of service-based restricted shares that vested during the three months ended June 30, 2015, and 2014, was $0.3 million and $0.4 million, respectively. The intrinsic value of service-based restricted shares that vested during the six months ended June 30, 2015, and 2014, was $1.3 million and $3.1 million, respectively.

At June 30, 2015, total unrecognized compensation expense related to restricted stock was approximately $2.6 million, net of forfeitures to be recognized through 2018 over a weighted average period of 1.7 years.

Restricted Stock Units – Service Based

The Company grants restricted stock units as employee incentives. Restricted stock units are primarily granted to foreign employees for long-term incentive purposes. Employee restricted stock units are service-based awards and are amortized over the vesting period. At the vesting date, these units are converted to shares of common stock. The Company records expense on a straight-line basis for restricted stock units.

The following table summarizes the restricted stock unit activity during the six months ended June 30, 2015:

The intrinsic value of service-based restricted stock units that vested and issued as shares during the three months ended June 30, 2015 was $20. The intrinsic value of service-based restricted stock units that vested and issued as shares during the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 was $20 and $27, respectively. No units vested during the three months ended June 30, 2014.

As of June 30, 2015, the unrecognized compensation expense related to the unvested portion of the Company’s restricted stock units was approximately $37, to be recognized through 2018 over a weighted average period of 1.6 years.

19

Stock Options

The Company grants stock options to purchase common stock as long-term incentives. The Company issues stock options with exercise prices no less than the fair value of the Company’s stock on the grant date. Employee options contain installment vesting typically over a period of four years. Stock options may be exercised at any time prior to their expiration date or within ninety days of termination of employment, or such shorter time as may be provided in the related stock option agreement. Prior to July 2010, the Company primarily granted stock options with a ten-year life. Beginning with options granted in July 2010, the Company grants stock options with a seven-year life. During the three months ended June 30, 2015, the Company awarded 17,000 stock options to eligible new employees. During March 2015, the Company awarded 130,000 stock options to new employees from the acquisition of the Nexgen business and during the six months ended June 30, 2015, the Company awarded 19,000 stock options to eligible new employees.

A summary of the Company’s stock option activity for the six months ended June 30, 2015 is as follows:

During the three months ended June 30, 2015, the Company received proceeds of $0.1 million from the exercise of 11,350 options. The intrinsic value of these options exercised was $3. During the six months ended June 30, 2015, the Company received proceeds of $0.3 million from the exercise of 35,134 options. The intrinsic value of these options exercised was $34.

During the three months ended June 30, 2014, the Company received proceeds of $0.1 million from the exercise of 12,677 options. The intrinsic value of these options exercised was $19. During the six months ended June 30, 2014, the Company received proceeds of $0.3 million from the exercise of 39,947 options. The intrinsic value of these options exercised was $54.

The range of exercise prices for options outstanding and exercisable at June 30, 2015, was $5.50 to $11.00. The following table summarizes information about stock options outstanding under all stock option plans:

20

The weighted average contractual life and intrinsic value at June 30, 2015, was the following:

The intrinsic value is based on the share price of $7.18 at June 30, 2015.

The Company calculated the fair value of each option grant on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model using the following assumptions at June 30^th:

The fair value of each unvested option was estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option valuation model. The Black-Scholes option valuation model was developed for use in estimating the fair value of traded options, which have no vesting restrictions and are fully transferable. In addition, option valuation models require the input of highly subjective assumptions including the expected stock price volatility and expected option life. Because the Company’s employee stock options have characteristics significantly different from those of traded options, and because changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate, the existing models may not necessarily provide a reliable single measure of the fair value of the employee stock options.

The dividend yield rate was calculated by dividing the Company’s annual dividend by the closing price on the grant date. The risk-free interest rate was based on the U.S. Treasury yields with remaining term that approximates the expected life of the options granted. The Company calculates the volatility based on a five-year historical period of the Company’s stock price. The Company incorporates a forfeiture rate based on historical data in the expense calculation. The expected life used for options granted is based on historical data of employee exercise performance. The Company records expense based on the grading vesting method.

21

As of June 30, 2015, the unrecognized compensation expense related to the unvested portion of the Company’s stock options was approximately $0.7 million, net of estimated forfeitures to be recognized through 2019 over a weighted average period of 1.1 years.

Performance-based Equity Awards

In June 2015, the Company’s Board of Directors approved the 2015 Long-Term Incentive Plan (“2015 LTIP”). Under the 2015 LTIP, shares are earned by certain executive employees based upon achievement of revenue goals over a four-year period with a penalty if certain profit levels are not maintained. The four-year period is divided into two interim periods (each an “Interim Period”), the first of which will end on December 31, 2016, and the second of which will end on December 31, 2018. The number of shares that can be earned at threshold and target are 212,000 and 424,000, respectively. Stock compensation expense is amortized over the performance period for these awards based on estimated achievement of the goals. No expense was recorded for the 1^st Interim Period of the 2015 LTIP because the Company does not believe it will meet the revenue threshold for the year ended 2016.

In March 2014, the Company’s Board of Directors approved the 2014 Long-Term Incentive Plan (“2014 LTIP”) and the LTIP award agreements were completed in April 2014. Under the 2014 LTIP, shares are earned by certain executive employees based upon achievement of revenue goals over a four-year period with a penalty if certain profit levels are not maintained. The four-year period is divided into two interim periods (each an “Interim Period”), the first of which will end on December 31, 2015, and the second of which will end on December 31, 2017. The number of shares that can be earned at threshold and target are 190,000 and 380,000, respectively. Stock compensation expense is amortized over the performance period for these awards based on estimated achievement of the goals. The achievement period for one executive was modified from two years to one year. For the units that vested, shares were awarded with intrinsic value of $50 and the unvested units were cancelled. For the remaining units, no expense has been recorded for the 1^st Interim Period of the 2014 LTIP because the Company does not believe it will meet the revenue threshold for the year ended 2015.

The following summarizes the performance unit activity during the six months ended June 30, 2015:

Within a revised employment offer letter to Jigar Thakkar in May 2015, the Company offered Mr. Thakkar the opportunity to earn up to 50,000 shares of common stock based on achieving revenue goals for 2016. Mr. Thakkar is the primary founder of Nexgen, and remained with the acquired business as the Company’s Vice President, Network Analytics. Under terms of the offer, 50% of the shares will vest on February 27, 2017 and 50% of the shares will vest on February 27, 2018 if Mr. Thakkar remains an employee of the Company on such dates. Stock compensation expense is amortized over the vesting period for these awards based on estimated achievement of the goals.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“ESPP”)

The ESPP enables eligible employees to purchase common stock at the lower of 85% of the fair market value of the common stock on the first or last day of each offering period. Each offering period is approximately six months. The Company received proceeds of $0.4 million from the issuance of 57,293 shares under the ESPP in February 2015 and received proceeds of $0.3 million from the issuance of 49,063 shares under the ESPP in February 2014.

Based on the 15% discount and the fair value of the option feature of this plan, this plan is considered compensatory. Compensation expense is calculated using the fair value of the employees’ purchase rights under the Black-Scholes model.

The Company calculated the fair value of each employee stock purchase grant on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model using the following assumptions:

22

The dividend yield rate was calculated by dividing the Company’s annual dividend by the closing price on the grant date. The risk-free interest rate was based on the U.S. Treasury yields with a remaining term that approximates the expected life of the options granted. The dividend yield rate is calculated by dividing the Company’s annual dividend by the closing price on the grant date. The Company calculates the volatility based on a five-year historical period of the Company’s stock price. The expected life used is based on the offering period.

In June 2014, the Company’s shareholders approved an amended and restated ESPP. Under the restated ESPP, the number of shares authorized for issuance was increased by 750,000. In addition, the expiration date of the ESPP was modified from March 2017 to the date that all shares authorized have been granted.

Employee Withholding Taxes on Stock Awards

For ease in administering the issuance of stock awards, the Company holds back shares of vested restricted stock awards and short-term incentive plan stock awards for the value of the statutory withholding taxes. For each individual receiving a share award, the Company redeems the shares it computes as the value for the withholding tax and remits this amount to the appropriate tax authority. The Company paid $0.4 million and $1.0 million for withholding taxes related to stock awards during the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

Stock Repurchases

All share repurchase programs are authorized by the Company’s Board of Directors and are announced publicly. On November 13, 2014, the Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program of up to 926,000 of the Company’s outstanding shares that will expire on the earlier of the date that the total shares are repurchased or November 13, 2016. On April 20, 2015, the Board of Directors authorized an increase to the stock buyback program to purchase another 500,000 shares of stock. Additionally, on August 10, 2015, the Board of Directors authorized another increase to the share repurchase program to purchase an additional 1,300,000 shares, for a total of 2,726,000 shares. The Company repurchased 380,085 shares at an average price of $7.40 during the three months ended June 30, 2015. At June 30, 2015, the Company had 1,045,915 shares that could still be repurchased under this program.

Amended and Restated Stock Plan

On June 10, 2015, the Company’s stockholders approved the amendment and restatement of the PCTEL, Inc. Stock Plan (previously known as the “1997 Stock Plan”) (the “Stock Plan”) to, among other things, increase the number of shares of common stock authorized for issuance under the Stock Plan. As amended and restated, the Stock Plan provides that the maximum aggregate number of shares with respect to which awards may be made under the Stock Plan after the effective date of the amendment and restatement is the sum of (i) 3,573,981 shares, plus (ii) any shares returned (or that would have otherwise been returned) to the Stock Plan on or after the date of approval of the amendment and restatement of the Stock Plan as a result of the Stock Plan’s lapsed share and share counting provisions, plus (iii) any remaining shares that would have been available for grant under the Stock Plan as of the effective date of the amendment and restatement.

At the time of the approval of the amendment and restatement of the Stock Plan by the Company’s stockholders, there were 2,058,769 shares of the Registrant’s Common Stock that had been previously registered under the prior Form S-8s and that were available for issuance under the Stock Plan. In addition, under the Stock Plan there were an aggregate of 316,740 unvested restricted shares outstanding and outstanding options to purchase 1,437,661 shares. Substantially all of the shares that remained available for grants under the Stock Plan had already been committed to awards under various incentive programs. Accordingly, the Company requested, and obtained, the approval of the stockholders to increase the number of shares available to enable the Company to continue making planned awards in 2015 and subsequent years.

9. Benefit Plans

Employee Benefit Plans

The Company’s 401(k) plan covers all full-time U.S. employees beginning the first of the month following the month they begin their employment. Under this plan, employees may elect to contribute up to 15% of their current compensation to the 401(k) plan, up to the statutorily prescribed annual limit. The Company may make discretionary contributions to the 401(k) plan. The Company also contributes to various retirement plans for foreign employees.

The Company’s contributions to retirement plans were as follows:

Executive Deferred Compensation Plan

Through December 2013, the Company provided an Executive Deferred Compensation Plan (“EDCP”) for executive officers, senior managers and directors. The Company funded the obligation related to the EDCP with corporate-owned life insurance policies. In November 2012, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized the termination of the EDCP and on December 27, 2013, the plan was terminated. The funds at the life insurance company were remitted to the Company and subsequently invested by the Company to fund the obligation.

At December 31, 2014, the value of the Company’s investment account to fund EDCP obligations was $2.1 million, included in cash equivalents and short-term investments and the deferred compensation obligation was $2.0 million, included in accrued liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets. In January 2015, the Company paid out the full amount of the obligation of $2.0 million to the participants.

10. Commitments and Contingencies

Operating Leases

The Company has operating leases for facilities through 2020 and office equipment through 2019. The future minimum rental payments under these leases at June 30, 2015, are as follows:

The rent expense under leases was approximately $0.3 million and $0.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2015, and 2014, respectively. The rent expense under leases was approximately $0.5 million and $0.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015, and 2014, respectively.

In conjunction with the asset purchase agreement for Nexgen, the Company assumed the lease for office space in Schaumburg, Illinois consisting of 6,652 square feet. The lease expiration date is October 31, 2018 and the total lease obligation pursuant to this lease assumption is $0.4 million.

In April 2015, the Company formally terminated the leased office space in San Antonio, Texas effective September 27^th, 2015.

In May 2015, the Company entered into a new five-year, five-month lease for an office for our expanding engineering services business in Englewood, Colorado consisting of leased space of 4,579 square feet with a lease expiration date of February 28^th, 2021. The first five months of the lease term are rent free. The total lease obligation pursuant to this lease is $0.6 million.

24

In May 2015, the Company extended the lease for its assembly facility in Pryor, Oklahoma for a period of six months ending October 31^st, 2015. The total lease obligation pursuant to this lease is $39.

All properties are in good condition and are suitable for the purposes for which they are used. We believe that we have adequate space for our current needs.

Capital Leases

The Company has capital leases for office and manufacturing equipment. The net book values for asset under capital leases were as follows:

The following table presents future minimum lease payments under capital leases together with the present value of the net minimum lease payments due in each year:

Warranty Reserve and Sales Returns

The Company allows its major distributors and certain other customers to return unused product under specified terms and conditions. The Company accrues for product returns based on historical sales and return trends. The Company’s allowance for sales returns was $0.1 million at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively.

The Company offers repair and replacement warranties of up to five years for certain antenna products and scanning receiver products. The Company’s warranty reserve is based on historical sales and costs of repair and replacement trends. The warranty reserve was $0.3 million at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively, and is included in other accrued liabilities in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Changes in the warranty reserves during the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, were as follows:

25

Restructuring Charges

In June 2015, the Company committed to a restructuring program for reductions in U.S. headcount and exit from the mobile towers product line. The Company acquired the mobile tower product line in the 2012 acquisition of Telworx. Mobile towers are primarily sold into the oil and gas exploration market in North America. The mobile towers are used to either provide a communications link to an oil drilling site or lighting for a site under construction. The decline in oil prices has caused a decline in related mobile tower sales. At June 30, 2015, the Company made the decision to exit the mobile tower product line due to the anticipated long term effect on revenue from depressed oil prices, and the fact that one of our two tower suppliers filed for Chapter 7 bankruptcy during June 2015 as a result of the decline in volume. Mobile towers are not a key element of the company’s kitting operation or antenna business within Connected Solutions. According to the accounting guidance, the exit of the mobile tower product line does not meet the requirements of discontinued operations.

The Company incurred restructuring charges of $0.4 million during the three months ended June 30, 2015 and will incur restructuring charges during the third and fourth quarters of 2015. During the three months ended June 30, 2015, the Company incurred severance costs of $34 for two employees and wrote off $0.4 million of intangible assets related to mobile towers recorded as restructuring charges.

The following table summarizes the restructuring activity during the three months ended June 30, 2015 and the status of the reserves at June 30. 2015:

TelWorx Settlements

The Company acquired substantially all of the assets and assumed certain specified liabilities of TelWorx Communications LLC, TelWorx U.K. Limited, TowerWorx LLC and TowerWorx International, Inc. (collectively “TelWorx”), pursuant to an Asset Purchase Agreement (“APA”) dated as of July 9, 2012 among the Company, TelWorx and Tim and Brenda Scronce, the principal owners of TelWorx. The business operations associated with these purchased assets is collectively referred to as “TelWorx” in this Form 10-Q. As disclosed in the Company’s Form 8-K/A filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 13, 2013, after completion of the acquisition, the Company became aware of certain accounting irregularities with respect to the TelWorx Entities and the Company’s Board of Directors directed management to conduct an internal investigation. Based on the results of the Company’s investigation, the Company’s Board of Directors directed management to seek restitution from the TelWorx Parties. On March 27, 2013, after protracted negotiations and concurrent litigation, the parties entered into an amendment to the APA and related settlement agreements to settle the dispute.

The Company sought and received restitution from two parties who assisted the sellers of TelWorx by providing professional services to the sellers in connection with their sale of the business to PCTEL. On September 30, 2014, the Company settled in cash with one party for $0.1 million and on October 10, 2014, the Company settled with the other party in cash for $0.8 million. The Company recorded the settlements as income in the quarters ended September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2014, respectively.

11. Income Taxes

The Company recorded income tax expense of $0.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015. The tax benefit for the six months ended June 30, 2015 differed from the statutory rate of 34% primarily because of state income taxes. The Company recorded income tax expense of $0.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014. The tax expense for the six months ended June 30, 2014 differed from the statutory rate of 34% primarily because of state income taxes.

The Company’s valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets was $0.6 million at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014. On a regular basis, the Company evaluates the recoverability of deferred tax assets and the need for a valuation allowance. Such evaluations involve the application of significant judgment. The Company considers multiple factors in its evaluation of the need for a valuation allowance. The Company’s long-term forecasts continue to support the realization of its deferred tax assets. The Company’s domestic deferred tax assets have a ratable reversal pattern over 15 years. The carry forward rules allow for up to a 20 year carry forward of net operating losses (“NOL”) to future income that is available to realize the deferred tax assets. The combination of the deferred tax asset reversal pattern and carry forward period yields a 26.0 year average period over which future income can be utilized to realize the deferred tax assets.

26

The Company’s gross unrecognized tax benefit was $0.8 million at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014.

The Company files a consolidated federal income tax return, income tax returns with various states, and foreign income tax returns in various foreign jurisdictions. The Company’s U.S. federal and state tax returns remain subject to examination for 2011 and subsequent periods.

12. Segment, Customer and Geographic Information

PCTEL operates in two segments for reporting purposes. The Company’s Connected Solutions segment includes its antenna and engineered site solutions. Its RF Solutions segment includes its scanning receivers and RF engineering services. Each of the segments has its own segment manager as well as its own engineering, sales and marketing, and operational general and administrative functions. All of the Company’s accounting and finance, human resources, IT and legal functions are provided on a centralized basis through the corporate function. The Company manages its balance sheet and cash flows centrally at the corporate level, with the exception of trade accounts receivable and inventory which is managed at the segment level. Each of the segment managers reports to and maintains regular contact with the chief operating decision maker to discuss operating activities, financial results, forecasts, or plans for the segment. The Company’s chief operating decision maker uses the profit and loss results through operating profit and identified assets for Connected Solutions and RF Solutions segments to make operating decisions.

27

The following tables are the segment operating profits and cash flow information for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and the segment balance sheet information as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014:
