NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
NOTE 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Pro-Dex, Inc. (“we”, “us”, “our”, “Pro-Dex” or the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Regulation S-K. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements presented in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2015. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The results of operations for such interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2015.
Recent Accounting Standards
In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers,” which outlines a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes most current revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. ASU 2014-09 requires an entity to recognize revenue depicting the transfer of 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. ASU 2014-09 also requires enhanced revenue related disclosures. In July 2015, the FASB deferred the effective date to fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 and early adoption of the standard is permitted, but not before the original effective date of December 15, 2017. This update permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. The Company is evaluating the effect this guidance will have on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements—Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40). This guidance defines management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an organization’s ability to continue as a going concern and to provide related footnote disclosures. Under the guidance, management is required to evaluate, for each annual and interim reporting period, whether it is probable that the entity will not be able to meet its obligations as they become due within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. When management identifies substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern, additional disclosures are required. This guidance will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. The Company is evaluating the effect this guidance will have on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-02, Consolidation. This guidance amends existing consolidation guidance in which a reporting entity might be required to consolidate another legal entity in situations in which the reporting entity’s contractual rights do not give it the ability to act primarily on its own behalf, the reporting entity does not hold a majority of the legal entity’s voting rights, or the reporting entity is not exposed to a majority of the legal entity’s economic benefits or obligations. The guidance:
• | modifies the evaluations of whether limited partnerships and similar legal entities are variable interest entities or voting interest entities; |
• | eliminates the presumption that a general partner should consolidate a limited partner; |
• | affects the consolidation analysis of reporting entities that are involved with variable interest entities, particularly those that have fee arrangements and related party relationships; and |
• | provides a scope exception from consolidation guidance for reporting entities with interests in certain investment funds. |

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
The guidance is effective for fiscal years, and for interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015. The Company does not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows.
In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03, “Interest - Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs” to simplify the presentation of debt issuance costs. The amendments in this accounting standard update require debt issuance costs be presented on the balance sheet as a direct reduction from the carrying amount of the related debt liability. The amendments in this accounting standard update are to be applied retrospectively and are effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015. We do not expect the adoption of this accounting standard update to have a material impact on our balance sheet.
NOTE 2. BUSINESS ACQUISITIONS
During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2015, we completed two acquisitions. On December 1, 2014, we completed the acquisition of Huber Precision (“Huber”), a manufacturer of machined parts, primarily for the oil and electronics industry. The aggregate purchase price paid was $209,000. On February 1, 2015, we completed the acquisition of Fineline Molds (“Fineline”), a manufacturer of plastic injection molds for a variety of industries. The aggregate purchase price was $757,000, of which $657,000 was paid in cash at closing and $100,000 of which is to be paid by the Company under the terms of a four-year promissory note issued to Fineline at closing. The note bears interest at 4% per annum and requires sixteen equal quarterly payments of principal and accrued interest in the amount of $6,794. The note is secured by all of the assets acquired by us from Fineline and is subordinate to the security interest created by the Summit Financial Resources LP Loan and Security Agreement (see notes 4 and 8).
The following summarizes the consideration paid and the estimated fair values of the assets acquired for each acquisition as of the respective acquisition date (in thousands):
Huber Purchase Price | Fineline Purchase Price | |||||||
Consideration: | ||||||||
Cash | $ | 209 | $ | 657 | ||||
Promissory note payable to seller | — | 100 | ||||||
Total consideration | $ | 209 | $ | 757 | ||||
Fair value of assets acquired: | ||||||||
Inventory | $ | 5 | $ | — | ||||
Fixed assets | 37 | 149 | ||||||
Covenant not to compete | 30 | 22 | ||||||
Trade name | — | 54 | ||||||
Customer list and backlog | 137 | 179 | ||||||
Net assets acquired | $ | 209 | $ | 404 | ||||
Goodwill | $ | — | $ | 353 |
The acquisitions were completed to support expansion of the business and broaden the Company’s customer base. We have accounted for these acquisitions as business combinations using the acquisition method of accounting. This method requires, among other things, that assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination be recognized at their fair values as of the acquisition date. There were no liabilities assumed as part of either the Huber or Fineline acquisitions. The results of operations related to the businesses acquired have been included in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations since the date of each respective acquisition. Pro forma historical results of operations related to both acquisitions during the period prior to the acquisition date have not been presented because they are not material to our consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss).

The fair value determination of assets recorded are those of management. The fair value determination of the customer list and backlog was based on the excess of earnings method which is based on the prospective net cash flows of the existing customers. The fair value determination of the trade name was based upon a relief from royalty approach which assesses the royalty savings an entity realizes since it owns the asset and isn’t required to pay a third party license for its use. The fair value determination of the covenants not to compete was based upon a discounted cash flow model.
NOTE 3. COMPOSITION OF CERTAIN FINANCIAL STATEMENT ITEMS
Inventory
Inventory is stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or market and consists of the following (in thousands):
December 31, 2015 | June 30, 2015 | |||||||

Finished goods | 256 | 160 | ||||||
Total inventory | $ | 4,481 | $ | 4,310 |
Intangibles
Intangibles consist of the following (in thousands):
December 31, 2015 | June 30, 2015 | |||||||
Capitalized software development costs | $ | 73 | $ | 73 | ||||
Covenant not to compete | 52 | 52 | ||||||

Total intangibles | $ | 592 | $ | 591 | ||||
Less accumulated amortization | (112 | ) | (44 | ) | ||||
$ | 480 | $ | 547 |
Capitalized software development costs relate to internally developed software, which are being amortized over the estimated minimum unit sales of the underlying product which was released for sale during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2015. Both the covenant not to compete and the customer list and backlog relate to assets acquired in conjunction with the business acquisitions more fully described in Note 2 above and are being amortized over various periods not to exceed ten years. The trade name relates exclusively to Fineline Molds and has an indefinite life, subject to impairment loss assessment annually, or more frequently if certain conditions exist. Patent-related costs consist of legal fees incurred in connection with patent applications, and will be amortized over the life of the applicable patent upon its issuance, or expensed immediately in the event the patent office denies the issuance of the patent.

NOTE 4. DUE FROM FACTOR
On September 9, 2015, we entered a Loan and Security Agreement (the “Summit Loan”) with Summit Financial Resources LP, (the “Factor”) whereby we can borrow up to $1.0 million against our eligible receivables, as defined in the agreement. Borrowed funds will bear interest at a rate of prime plus 2 percent, and incur an additional administrative fee of 0.7 percent on the monthly average outstanding balance. The Summit Loan has an initial period of 18 months with successive one year renewal options and requires an annual facility fee of $10,000.
As of December 31, 2015, the total amount of receivables that have been assigned to the Factor pursuant to the Summit Loan is $912,000 and we bear the risk of loss in the event of non-payment by the customers. During the three and six months ended December 31, 2015, we borrowed $1.3 million and $1.6 million, respectively, under the Summit Loan, which amounts were paid in full by December 31, 2015. Therefore, at December 31, 2015, we had no outstanding borrowings against the Summit Loan.
NOTE 5. WARRANTY
The warranty accrual is based on historical costs of warranty repairs and expected future identifiable warranty expenses, and is included in accrued expenses in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. As of December 31, 2015 and June 30, 2015, the warranty reserve amounted to $367,000 and $261,000, respectively. Warranty expenses are included in cost of sales in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. Changes in estimates to previously established warranty accruals result from current period updates to assumptions regarding repair costs and warranty return rates, and are included in current period warranty expense. Warranty expense relating to new product sales and changes to estimates for the three months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014 was $73,000 and $155,000, respectively, and for the six months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014 was $178,000 and $150,000, respectively.
Information regarding the accrual for warranty costs for the three and six months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014 are as follows (in thousands):

NOTE 6. NET INCOME (LOSS) PER SHARE
The Company calculates basic net income (loss) per share by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the reporting period. The weighted-average number of common shares outstanding reflects the effects of potentially dilutive securities, in income generating periods, which consist entirely of outstanding stock options.
Potential common shares of 27,683 have been excluded from diluted weighted average common shares for the three months ended December 31, 2014, as the effect would have been anti-dilutive. Similarly, potential common shares of 23,399 have been excluded from diluted weighted average common shares for the six months ended December 31, 2014, as the effect would have been anti-dilutive.
The following table presents reconciliations of the numerators and denominators of the basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share computations for net income (loss). In the tables below, income (loss) amounts represent the numerator, and share amounts represent the denominator (in thousands, except per share amounts):

NOTE 7. INVESTMENT IN RAMSEY PROPERTY AND RELATED NOTES RECEIVABLE AND VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITY CONSIDERATIONS
In November 2014, the Company purchased two promissory notes through a Loan Purchase and Sale Agreement in the amount of $1.2 million. The promissory notes were cross-collateralized and originally secured by (collectively, the “Collateral”), among other things, real property consisting of 2.3 acres of land and an approximate 30,000 square foot industrial building and a security interest in substantially all of the assets of Riverside Manufacturing, Inc. (“Riverside”) (consisting primarily of machine shop equipment and accounts receivable).
The notes were recorded at their purchase price and since the notes remained in default, they were placed on nonaccrual status, and therefore, the Company has not collected or recognized any interest income since the date of purchase. Additionally, due to uncertainties relating to future cash flows projected to be received on the notes, no accretable yield was recorded.
During the third quarter of fiscal 2015, we entered into forbearance agreements with Riverside whereby we agreed to forbear from enforcing our rights under the promissory notes until July 31, 2015. Additionally, we entered into a revolving loan agreement, whereby we agreed to advance Riverside from time-to-time up to an aggregate amount of $200,000 at any time prior to July 31, 2015. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2015, we amended the revolving loan agreement to provide for advances to Riverside of up to an aggregate amount of $300,000 under a Revolving Loan Modification Agreement.
Additionally, during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2015, as disclosed in a Form 8-K filed with the SEC on May 13, 2015, we entered a settlement agreement such that we received the deed to the land and building located in Ramsey, Minnesota (the “Ramsey Property”) which had previously been held as security for notes receivable. The notes are considered impaired because we do not believe the contractual payments will be collected pursuant to contract terms. Accordingly, the recorded investment is reflected at the lesser of the purchase price or the estimated fair value of the collateral (with appropriate reductions for estimated disposal costs).

On September 22, 2015 we sent Riverside a proposal to accept the collateral in full satisfaction of Riverside’s debt. On October 13, 2015, title to the collateral transferred to the Company by operation of law. Therefore, on October 13, 2015, we took possession of all assets secured by the revolving loan agreement and promissory notes and Riverside ceased to operate. Since that time we entered into a contract to sell the real property and are in the process of selling all of the machinery and equipment through an equipment broker. Based upon these events we no longer believe that the investments in Riverside create a variable interest entity (“VIE”), especially as Riverside has ceased operations effective October 13, 2015.
As of December 31, 2015, we have classified the Investment in Ramsey property and related notes receivable to current assets based upon the events described above. During the three months ended December 31, 2015 we have collected $277,000 from selling inventory and equipment and collecting outstanding receivables, all of which served as collateral for Riverside’s debt.
NOTE 8. NOTES PAYABLE AND FINANCING TRANSACTIONS
Fortitude Income Funds
The Company borrowed $500,000 from Fortitude Income Funds, LLC under a promissory note dated September 8, 2015. The loan bears interest at 12 percent per annum, contains a loan origination fee of $15,000 plus expenses, and requires monthly interest only payments until its maturity on March 15, 2016. The loan contains two three-month options to extend the principal re-payment, each requiring an up-front payment of $3,750. The loan is secured by a combination mortgage, security agreement and fixture statement covering the Ramsey Property.
Summit Financial Resources LP
Additionally, as discussed in Note 4, on September 9, 2015 we entered into the Summit Loan, whereby we can borrow up to $1.0 million against our eligible receivables, as defined in the agreement. Borrowed funds will bear interest at a rate of prime plus 2 percent, and incur an additional administrative fee of 0.7 percent on the monthly average outstanding balance. The Summit Loan has an initial period of 18 months with successive one year renewal options and requires an annual facility fee of $10,000. During the three and six months ended December 31, 2015 we borrowed $1.3 million and $1.6 million, respectively, under the Summit Loan, which amounts were paid in full by December 31, 2015.
Fineline Molds
As discussed in Note 2, in conjunction with our acquisition of the assets of Fineline we issued a promissory note to Fineline in the amount of $100,000 which bears interest at 4% per annum and requires sixteen equal quarterly payments of principal and accrued interest in the amount of $6,794. The note is secured by all of the assets acquired by us from Fineline and is subordinate to the security interest created by the Summit Loan. The balance owed on the note as of December 31, 2015 and June 30, 2015 is approximately $82,000 and $94,000 respectively.
NOTE 9. INCOME TAXES
Deferred income taxes are provided on a liability method whereby deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.
Significant management judgment is required in determining our provision for income taxes and the recoverability of our deferred tax assets. Such determination is based primarily on our historical taxable income or loss, with some consideration given to our estimates of future taxable income or loss by jurisdictions in which we operate and the period over which our deferred tax assets would be recoverable. Due to cumulative taxable losses during the past three years, we maintained a valuation allowance of $3.9 million against our deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2015.

PRO-DEX, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
As of December 31, 2015, we have accrued $434,000 of unrecognized tax benefits related to federal and state income tax matters. None of this balance is expected to reduce the Company’s income tax expense if recognized.
A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of unrecognized tax benefits is as follows (in thousands):
Balance at July 1, 2015 | $ | 399 | ||
Additions based on tax positions related to the current year | 27 | |||
Additions for tax positions of prior years | 8 | |||
Balance at December 31, 2015 | $ | 434 |
We recognize accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits when applicable. As of December 31, 2015, no interest or penalties applicable to our unrecognized tax benefits have been accrued since we have sufficient tax attributes available to fully offset any potential assessment of additional tax.
Pro-Dex and its subsidiaries are subject to U.S. federal income tax, as well as income tax of multiple state tax jurisdictions. We are currently open to audit under the statute of limitations by the Internal Revenue Service for the years ended June 30, 2012 and later. Our state income tax returns are open to audit under the statute of limitations for the years ended June 30, 2011 and later. We do not anticipate a significant change to the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits within the next 12 months.
NOTE 10. SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION
As discussed further below, until June 2014 we had two equity compensation plans, the Second Amended and Restated 2004 Stock Option Plan (the “Employee Stock Option Plan”) and the Amended and Restated 2004 Directors’ Stock Option Plan (the “Directors’ Stock Option Plan”) (collectively, the “Stock Option Plans”), pursuant to which (i) options to purchase shares of common stock, or (ii) restricted shares of common stock, could be granted up to an aggregate amount of 1,333,333 common shares, with 1,066,667 and 266,666 shares distributed between the Employee Stock Option Plan and the Directors’ Stock Option Plan, respectively. The Stock Option Plans were substantially similar, providing for a strike price equal to the closing price for a share of our common stock as of the last business day immediately prior to the grant date, vesting periods as determined by the Board for the Employee Stock Option Plan and six months for the Directors’ Stock Option Plan, and terms of up to ten years, subject to forfeit 30 days after the holder ceases to be an employee or 90 days after the holder ceases to be a director, as the case may be. Share-based compensation expense under the Stock Option Plans for the three months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014 was $0 and $4,000, respectively, and for the six months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014 was $2,000 and $11,000, respectively.
In June 2014, our Board of Directors terminated the Employee Stock Option Plan, with the provision that options outstanding under the Employee Stock Option Plan will remain outstanding in accordance with their respective terms. At the date of termination, 531,381 shares were reserved for issuance under the Employee Stock Option Plan in excess of shares issuable pursuant to outstanding options, all of which shares will be available for issuance under the provisions of the Employee Stock Purchase Plan described below.
In September 2014, our Board approved the inclusion in our proxy statement for approval by our shareholders at the 2014 Annual Meeting of Shareholders its recommendation to terminate the Directors’ Stock Option Plan, which proposal was approved by our shareholders at the December 3, 2014 Annual Meeting. At September 30, 2014, 173,334 shares were reserved for issuance under the Directors’ Stock Option Plan, all of which will be available for issuance under the provisions of the Employee Stock Purchase Plan described below.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan
Also in September 2014, our Board approved the establishment of an Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “ESPP”). The ESPP conforms to the provisions of Section 423 of the Internal Revenue Code, has coterminous offering and purchase periods of six months, and bases the pricing to purchase shares of our common stock on a formula so as to result in a per share purchase price that approximates a 15% discount from the market price of a share of our common stock at the end of the purchase period. The Board of Directors also approved the provision that shares formerly reserved for issuance under the Employee Stock Option Plan and the Directors’ Stock Option Plan in excess of shares issuable pursuant to outstanding options, aggregating 704,715 shares, be reserved for issuance pursuant to the ESPP. During the first quarter ended September 30, 2015, 1,925 shares were purchased and allocated to employees based upon their contributions at a price of $2.34 per share. There were no share purchases during the second quarter ended December 31, 2015. The next six month offering period is scheduled to occur in the third quarter of fiscal 2016.

NOTE 12. SEGMENT INFORMATION
In fiscal 2016, the Company has four reportable segments based on its business activities and organization:
• | Pro-Dex located in Irvine, California – providing primarily medical and dental instruments using shared production and assembly machines and workforce. This segment also incorporates Huber Precision as the revenues and assets of Huber Precision are not material to the Company’s total revenues and assets. Additionally, effective November 30, 2015 the former San Carlos office of Huber Precision was closed and all orders shipped since that date are manufactured at the Irvine facility. |
• | OMS located in Beaverton, Oregon – providing multi-axis motion control applications. |
• | Fineline located in San Dimas, California. This business was purchased on February 1, 2015 and is a manufacturer of plastic injection molds for a variety of industries. |

• | Engineering Services Division or (“ESD”). This division was launched in fiscal 2015 to provide permanent placement and contract services in the fields of engineering, manufacturing and quality to diverse businesses. |
In deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance, the Company’s chief executive officer regularly evaluates the sales and operating income of these segments. Operating income is the gross margin of the segment less direct expenses of the segment. Unallocated corporate expenses include our corporate administrative cost center, which primarily includes costs associated with being a public company, as well as general and administrative expenses (“G&A”) incurred related to our investment in the Ramsey property and related notes receivable and is a subset of total general and administrative expenses. Additionally, other costs incurred in our G&A, including salaries and other personnel-related expenses for corporate, accounting, finance and human resource personnel, as well as costs for outsourced information technology services, are not allocated by segment internally and are included in Pro-Dex in the tables below.

NOTE 13. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Legal Matters
In general, we are from time to time a party to various legal proceedings incidental to our business, none of which we currently consider may be material. There can be no certainty, however, that we may not ultimately incur liability or that such liability will not be material and adverse.
NOTE 14. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
Fair value is measured based on the prices that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Fair value measurements are based on a three-tier hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. These tiers include: Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets; Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable; and Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs for which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions.
Cash and cash equivalents: The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents is considered to be representative of their fair values based on the short term nature of these instruments. As such, cash and cash equivalents are classified within Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy.
Investment in Ramsey property and related notes receivable: These investments are classified within Level 3 of the valuation hierarchy for purposes of evaluating potential impairment of these assets. The fair value of the property and related notes receivable is based upon the valuation of third party appraisals of the land and building as well as the equipment which is security for the notes less estimates of liquidation costs and has been reduced by proceeds collected to date.
Although the methods above may produce a fair value calculation that may not be indicative of the net realizable value or reflective of future fair values, we believe the valuation methods are appropriate.
NOTE 15. SUBSEQUENT EVENT
On January 6, 2016, the Company entered into a Receipt for Earnest Money Deposit and Real Estate Purchase Contract, as modified by an Addendum to Real Estate Purchase Contract (collectively, the “Purchase Contract”), to sell approximately 2.2 acres of land and an approximately 30,000 square foot building thereon located in the City of Ramsey and included in Investment in Ramsey property and related notes receivable in our condensed consolidated balance sheet, as of December 31, 2015, for an amount of $1,653,000. The Purchase Contract, as reported in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on January 8, 2016, provides the Purchaser up to 45 days to perform its due diligence. In addition to legal fees and other transaction costs, the Company is obligated to pay broker commissions of $99,180 (6% of the purchase price) at closing.

Basis of Presentation
The condensed consolidated results of operation presented in this report are not audited and those results are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the entirety of the fiscal year ending June 30, 2016 or any other interim period during such fiscal year. Our fiscal year ends on June 30 and our fiscal quarters end on September 30, December 31, and March 31. Unless otherwise stated, all dates refer to our fiscal year and those fiscal quarters.
Critical Accounting Estimates and Judgments
Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). The preparation of our financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and related disclosures. We base our estimates on historical experience and various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
An accounting policy is deemed to be critical if it requires an accounting estimate to be made based on assumptions about matters that are highly uncertain at the time the estimate is made, and if different estimates that reasonably could have been used or changes in the accounting estimate that are reasonably likely to occur could materially change the financial statements. Management believes that there have been no significant changes during the three and six months ended December 31, 2015 to the items that we disclosed as our critical accounting policies in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2015, except as noted below, whereby we have expanded our revenue recognition criteria to include the milestone method based on development contracts in effect during the current fiscal year.
Revenue Recognition
Revenue on product sales is recognized upon shipment to the customer when risk of loss and title transfer to the customer and all other conditions required by GAAP, as promulgated by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Section 605 (formerly Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104, Revenue Recognition), have been satisfied.
Revenue from billable product development service portions of development and supply contracts is generally recognized either upon milestone completion or completion of the product development services, in conformity with ASC Section 605. We recognize revenue that is contingent upon the achievement of a substantive milestone in its entirety in the period in which the milestone is achieved. A milestone is considered substantive when the consideration payable to us for such milestone (i) is consistent with our performance necessary to achieve the milestone, (ii) relates solely to our past performance and (iii) is reasonable relative to all of the other deliverables and payments within the arrangement. In making this assessment, we consider all facts and circumstances relevant to the arrangement, including factors such as the scientific, regulatory, commercial and other risks that must be overcome to achieve the milestone, the level of effort and investment required to achieve the milestone and whether any portion of the milestone consideration is related to future performance or deliverables. Accordingly, in certain cases, based upon the evaluation of the criteria above, we record revenue upon milestone completion and in other cases revenue from product development milestone billings to our customers is deferred until completion of all development phases or milestones.
Returns of our product for credit are minimal; accordingly, we do not establish a reserve for product returns at the time of sale.

Business Strategy and Future Plans
Our business today is almost entirely driven by sales of our medical products and related repair services. One year ago we had one significant medical device customer that accounted for over 10 percent of our revenue and today we have four medical device customers that account for more than 10 percent of our revenue. This is due in part to the completion of the design of a CMF product which we began selling to a customer in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2015, as well as shipments of product beginning in the third quarter of fiscal 2015 that relates to another customer’s unique surgical handpiece designed for use in orthopedic surgery applications. Additionally, in the second quarter of fiscal 2016 we completed the design of another CMF surgical driver for another customer allowing us to recognize previously deferred development revenue and commenced product shipments. We continue to focus a significant percentage of our time and resources on providing outstanding products and service to our valued principal customers. Additionally, we are currently undertaking cost reduction analysis relating to our newest products, because they have a lower product margin than our legacy products, in part due to additional labor and overhead charges associated with the learning curve of new assemblies.
Simultaneously, we are working to build top-line sales through active proposals of new medical device products with new and existing customers, and anticipate completing one significant ongoing engineering project during fiscal 2016, which we believe will lead to the addition of another significant product launch in early fiscal 2017. Additionally, we are seeking additional revenue streams through our Engineering Services Division (“ESD”) by offering both temporary/contract and full-time employee placements to other customers in diverse industries.
During fiscal year 2015 we acquired two businesses, Huber Precision, which manufactures machined parts for the auto and electronics industries, and Fineline Molds, which manufactures plastic injection molds for companies in a wide variety of industries. We believe these acquisitions will allow us to diversify our product offerings and eventually increase the utilization of our machine and assembly departments. Effective November 30, 2015 in conjunction with the termination of the San Carlos lease assumed by us in conjunction with our acquisition of Huber Precision, we have begun manufacturing and shipping orders to Huber Precision customers from our Irvine facility. The first shipment from the Irvine location was made in January 2016.
Finally, during fiscal 2015 and the first quarter of fiscal 2016 we invested $1.7 million in the land and building located in Ramsey, Minnesota (the “Ramsey Property”) and related notes receivable. We originally acquired the notes to achieve a return on capital upon liquidation or operation of the assets of Riverside Manufacturing, Inc. (“Riverside”). We have since decided to liquidate the investment and have entered a contract to sell the real property and are in the process of liquidating all other collateral in an orderly fashion. During the second quarter of fiscal 2016 we collected $277,000 through liquidation of a portion of the underlying collateral consisting of inventory and equipment and collecting outstanding receivables.
In summary, our current objectives are focused primarily on maintaining our relationships with our current medical device customers, completing cost-reductions relating to our newest products, completing our ongoing development projects, liquidating and monetizing the investment we made in the Ramsey property and related note receivable and continuing to integrate recent acquisitions while monitoring closely the progress of all these individual endeavors. However, there can be no assurance that we will be successful in any of these objectives.

Description of Business Operations
Revenue
The majority of our revenue is derived from designing, developing and manufacturing surgical devices for the medical device and dental industries and motion control software and hardware for industrial and scientific applications. The proportion of total sales by type is as follows (in thousands, except percentages):

Certain of our medical device products utilize proprietary designs developed by us under exclusive development and supply agreements. All of our medical device products utilize proprietary manufacturing methods and know-how, and are manufactured in our Irvine, California facility, as are our dental products, which are sold primarily to original equipment manufacturers and dental product distributors. We design and manufacture embedded multi-axis motion controllers in our facility in Beaverton, Oregon. We manufacture plastic injection molds in our San Dimas, California facility, a revenue stream generated from our acquisition of Fineline during the third quarter of fiscal 2015.
Sales of our medical device products and related development services increased $2.6 million and $3.7 million, respectively for the three and six months ended December 31, 2015. In the third quarter of fiscal year 2015 we launched production of a surgical handpiece designed to be used in orthopedic surgery applications for one of our customers and in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2015 we began volume production of a cranial driver for CMF applications that we designed for another customer. Sales to these two customers accounted for $1.5 million and $3.2 million for the three and six months ended December 31, 2015, respectively, and sales to these same customers were negligible during the corresponding periods of the prior fiscal year. During the second quarter of fiscal 2016 we completed the development of another cranial driver to meet the specifications of another medical device customer and we were able to recognize non-recurring engineering revenue, much of which had been previously deferred, in the amount of $660,000, and shipped approximately $550,000 of the newly developed product to this customer.
At December, 2015, we had a backlog of approximately $10.6 million, of which $2.7 million is scheduled to be delivered in fiscal 2017 and the balance is scheduled to be delivered in the current fiscal year. Of the backlog, approximately $543,000 relates to Fineline Molds. We may experience variability in our new order bookings due to various reasons, including, but not limited to, the timing of major new product launches and customer planned inventory builds, illustrative of which is two development projects for CMF devices and the recent release of an orthopedic surgical handpiece. However, we do not typically experience seasonal fluctuations in our shipments and revenues.

Gross margin | 28 | % | 25 | % | 27 | % | 28 | % | 3 | (1 | ) |
Cost of sales for the three months ended December 31, 2015 increased $1.8 million or 86 percent compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year. The increase in total costs of sales is consistent with the 95 percent increase in revenue for the same period. Under-absorption of manufacturing costs increased by $30,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2015 compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year due primarily to adjustments made to lower our standard labor and overhead rates at the beginning of fiscal 2016 in anticipation of higher manufacturing volumes. Also included in product cost for the quarter ended December 31, 2015 was an accrual of $10,000 for anticipated losses from the development services portion of certain contracts, compared to a $93,000 accrual recorded in the corresponding quarter of the prior year. Costs relating to inventory and warranty charges decreased by $120,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2015 compared to the second quarter of the prior fiscal year. The warranty accrual estimate decreased due to lower volume of sales of specific products as well as a decrease in the estimated return rate of those products in the current fiscal year versus the prior fiscal year.
Gross profit increased by approximately $843,000 or 121 percent for the three months ended December 31, 2015 compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year, primarily as a result of the increase in revenue discussed above. Gross margin as a percentage of sales increased by approximately 3 percentage points compared to the corresponding period of the prior year due primarily to the effects of the accruals for anticipated losses from certain contracts and lower warranty charges as discussed above.
Cost of sales for the six months ended December 31, 2015 increased by $3.1 million or 80 percent compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year, primarily due to the increase revenue of 77 percent for the same period, the reasons for which are discussed above. Additionally, product cost for the six months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014 includes an accrual of approximately $78,000 and $141,000, respectively, relating to estimated contract losses for certain engineering development projects that are now complete. Finally, cost of sales reflects a $203,000 decrease in under-absorbed manufacturing costs as we are over-absorbed by $99,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2015, due to increased manufacturing volumes.
Gross profit increased $1.1 million, or 70 percent, for the six months ended December 31, 2015 compared to the corresponding period of the prior year, primarily as a result of the increases in revenue of 77 percent discussed above. Gross margin declined by approximately 1 percentage point, compared to the corresponding period of the prior year.

Selling expenses consist of salaries and other personnel-related expenses for our business development department as well as advertising and marketing expenses, and travel and related costs incurred in generating and maintaining our customer relationships. Selling expenses for the three and six months ended December 31, 2015 increased $70,000, or 38 percent, and $142,000, or 43 percent, respectively, compared to the corresponding periods of fiscal 2014. Approximately $54,000 and $108,000 of the increase is attributable Fineline for the three and six months ended December 31, 2015, respectively, compared to the three and six months ended December 31, 2014. Additionally, approximately $10,000 and $25,000 of the increase is attributable to Huber Precision for the three and six months ended December 31, 2015, respectively, compared to the three and six months ended December 31, 2014. All costs related to Huber Precision have since been eliminated as they all related to the separate San Carlos location which was closed upon the expiration of the lease on November 30, 2015.
General and administrative expenses (“G&A”) consists of salaries and other personnel-related expenses of our accounting, finance and human resource personnel, professional fees, directors’ fees, and other costs and expenses attributable to being a public company. G&A remained relatively flat for the three months ended December 31, 2015 and increased $36,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2015, respectively, when compared to the corresponding periods of the prior fiscal year. The increase in total G&A expenses was primarily related to legal, consulting and amortized loan fees of approximately $80,000 incurred in connection with our investment in the Ramsey property and related note receivable, offset by a reduction in legal expenses incurred related to prior year business acquisitions.
Research and development costs generally consist of salaries, employer paid benefits, and other personnel related costs of our engineering and support personnel, as well as allocated facility and information technology costs, professional and consulting fees, patent-related fees, lab costs, materials, and travel and related costs incurred in the development and support of our products. Research and development costs for the three months ended December 31, 2015 remained relatively flat compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year. Research and development expenses for the six months ended December 31, 2015 increased by $34,000, or 4 percent, compared to the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year due primarily to increased labor and project investment of approximately $25,000 in our OMS division located in Beaverton, Oregon and a net increase of approximately $10,000 in total costs incurred in our Irvine, California location, which is exclusively focused on medical device product development.
Interest Expense
Interest expense consists primarily of interest expense related to the loans and notes payable described more fully in Note 8 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements contained elsewhere in this report and capital lease obligations for leased office equipment. The increase in interest expense for the three and six months ended December 31, 2015 relates to these recent financing arrangements.
Realized Gain on Sale of Investments
During the three and six months ended December 31, 2014, we sold certain of our investments in marketable equity securities of publicly held companies and recorded realized gains of $59,000. We have not held any marketable securities during the three and six months ended December 31, 2015.
Income Tax Benefit
The effective tax rates for the three and six months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014 are lower than statutory tax rates due to our inability to fully recognize the benefits of federal and state loss carryforwards prior to their utilization. (See Note 9 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements contained elsewhere in this report.)

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 2015 increased $356,000 to $1.1 million as compared to $697,000 at June 30, 2015. The following table includes a summary of our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows contained elsewhere in this report.

Operating Activities
Net cash used in operating activities during the six months ended December 31, 2015 amounted to $328,000. Uses of cash arose from an increase in accounts receivable of $383,000, primarily due to increased sales late in the second quarter ended December 31, 2015, an increase in inventory purchases of $171,000, a decrease in accounts payable, accrued liabilities and deferred rent, aggregating $778,000, due primarily to payments made during the six months ended December 31, 2015 for inventory purchases as well as a decrease in deferred revenue of $312,000 upon completion of a development contract. Sources of cash arose from our net income of $265,000, a decrease of $745,000 in unbilled receivables related primarily to the completion of a product development contract in the second quarter ended December 31, 2015, accounted for under the completed contract method of accounting, and non-cash depreciation and amortization of $334,000.
Cash provided by operating activities was $263,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2014 primarily due to collections of accounts receivable in the amount of $673,000, an increase in accounts payable, accrued expenses and deferred rent of $326,000, mostly due to increased accruals for warranty and an increase in payables due to inventory purchases and non-cash depreciation and amortization expense of $259,000. Additionally, we had an increase in deferred revenue of $269,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2014 relating to contractual payments made to us by customers in advance of our ability to recognize such payments as revenue. Uses of cash offsetting the amounts above include our net loss of $362,000, an increase of $342,000 in unbilled receivables related to the development phase of certain contracts that have not yet reached the revenue recognition stage under the completed contract method of accounting, an increase of $275,000 in inventory purchases and an increase of $103,000 in prepaid expenses, mostly related to corporate insurances. Additionally, we recorded non-cash deferred income tax benefits of $77,000 and had a decrease in income taxes payable in the amount of $53,000.
Investing Activities
Net cash provided by investing activities for the six months ended December 31, 2015 was $183,000. This increase was due primarily to proceeds of $277,000 received from the liquidation of a portion of the collateral underlying our investment in Ramsey property and related notes receivable offset by additional extension of credit made in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 in the amount of $57,000 and a property tax payment made in the second quarter of fiscal 2016 in the amount of $29,000.
During the six months ended December 31, 2014, we invested $1.2 million in the purchase of notes receivable as further described in Note 7 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements contained elsewhere in this report. We also purchased Huber Precision for $209,000, made capital expenditures primarily for tooling and manufacturing equipment in the amount of $209,000 and received $318,000 in proceeds from the sale of equity securities in conformity with our surplus capital investment policy. Additionally, we expended $61,000 in capitalized legal fees and software development costs related to internally developed intellectual property.
26 |
Financing Activities
Cash provided by financing activities during the six months ended December 31, 2015 was $501,000 and primarily related to the Fortitude Income Funds, LLC promissory note described under “Financing Facilities & Liquidity Requirements for the next twelve months” below.
During the six months ended December 31, 2014 we spent $94,000 on the repurchase of company common stock pursuant to the share repurchase program described in more detail below.
Financing Facilities & Liquidity Requirements for the next twelve months
In September 2015, as previously reported, we entered into two separate financing transactions.
We borrowed $500,000 from Fortitude Income Funds, LLC under a promissory note dated September 8, 2015. The loan bears interest at 12 percent per annum, contains a loan origination fee of $15,000 plus expenses, and requires monthly interest only payments until its maturity on March 15, 2016. The loan contains two three-month options to extend the principal re-payment, each requiring an up-front payment of $3,750. The loan is secured by a combination mortgage, security agreement and fixture statement covering the Ramsey Property. During the third quarter of fiscal 2016 we entered a contract to sell the Ramsey Property, which is estimated to close in the third quarter of fiscal 2016 subject to the buyer’s waiver of all contingencies in the contract, and we are currently liquidating the other collateral secured by the related notes. We plan to use the proceeds from the liquidation of these assets to repay the Fortitude note and anticipate we will have additional remaining proceeds that can be used for working capital needs.
Additionally, on September 9, 2015, we entered a Loan and Security Agreement with Summit Financial Resources LP, (the “Summit Loan”) whereby we can borrow up to $1.0 million against our eligible receivables, as defined in the agreement. Borrowed funds will bear interest at a rate of prime plus 2 percent, and incur an additional administrative fee of 0.7 percent on the average outstanding balance. The Summit Loan has an initial period of 18 months with successive one year renewal options and requires an annual facility fee of $10,000. Both financing agreements contain customary representations and warranties for loans of this nature.
As of December 31, 2015, our working capital was $6.9 million. We currently believe that our existing cash and cash equivalent balances as well as our account receivable balances, and the short-term borrowing capacity provided by the Summit Loan described above will provide us sufficient funds to satisfy our cash requirements as our business is currently conducted for at least the next 12 months. Additionally, we have entered a contract to sell the Ramsey Property and are currently liquidating the other collateral secured by the related notes. Certain factors and events could negatively affect our cash flows, including:
• | In the event that any of our significant customers are unable to perform due to cancelation of their ordered products and/or their ability to pay for such products in a timely manner. Such significant change would negatively impact our revenue, operating results, and cash flows. |
• | In the event that the contract to sell the Ramsey Property does not close due to the buyer’s inability to obtain financing during the due diligence period or any other reason, would cause a delay in selling the property and may reduce the proceeds we expect to receive. Such significant change would negatively impact our operating results and cash flows. |
We are focused on preserving our cash balances by monitoring expenses, identifying cost savings, and investing only in those development programs and products that we believe will most likely contribute to our profitability. As we execute on our current strategy, however, we may require debt and/or equity capital to fund our working capital needs. In particular, we have experienced, and anticipate that we may experience in the future, negative operating cash flow, especially as we procure long-lead time materials to satisfy our current backlog. We may attempt to raise additional funds through public or private debt or equity financings if such financings become available on acceptable terms, or we may seek working capital financing through the extension of additional credit. We cannot be certain that any additional financing we may need will be available on terms acceptable to us, or at all. If adequate funds are not available or are not available on acceptable terms, we may not be able to take advantage of opportunities, develop new products or otherwise respond to competitive pressures, and our operating results and financial condition could be adversely affected.

ITEM 3. | QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK |
Not applicable.
ITEM 4. | CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES |
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer (the principal executive officer and principal financial officer, respectively) conducted an evaluation of the design and operation of our “disclosure controls and procedures” (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”)). 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 the Company in the reports 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 also 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, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
In accordance with SEC rules, an evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer of the effectiveness, as of December 31, 2015, of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act). “Internal control over financial reporting” includes those policies and procedures that:
(1) | pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the issuer; |
(2) | provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the issuer are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the issuer; and |
(3) | provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the issuer’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. |
Based on that evaluation as of December 31, 2015, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures are effective.
Internal Control over Financial Reporting
During the three months ended December 31, 2015, there were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.
28 |
Inherent Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls
In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, our management recognized that any system of 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 was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements.
