1.	Description of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:

CollabRx, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“CollabRx,” the “Company” or “we,” “us,” or “our”), is the renamed Tegal Corporation, (“Tegal”), which acquired a private company of the same name on July 12, 2012.  Following approval by its stockholders on September 25, 2012, Tegal amended its charter and changed its name to “CollabRx, Inc.” (the “Name Change”).

 

Tegal was formed in December 1989 to acquire the operations of the former Tegal Corporation, a division of Motorola, Inc.  Tegal’s predecessor company was founded in 1972 and acquired by Motorola, Inc. in 1978. Tegal completed its initial public offering in October 1995.

CollabRx offers cloud-based expert systems that provide clinically relevant interpretive knowledge to institutions, physicians, researchers and patients for genomics-based medicine in cancer to inform health care decision-making.  With access to approximately 75 clinical and scientific advisors at leading academic institutions and a suite of tools and processes that combine artificial intelligence-based analytics with proprietary interpretive content, the Company is well positioned to participate in the value-added “big data” opportunity in the U.S. health care.  We use the term “cloud” to mean a product or service that can be delivered via the Internet, usually on a pay-for-use or subscription basis, versus the purchase and installation of enterprise-based software, which typically requires investments in both software and hardware, often also requiring large-scale customization efforts.  We use the term “big data” to refer to datasets whose size is beyond the ability of typical database software tools to capture, store, manage, and analyze. 

We search publicly available databases as source documents for our knowledge base.  Such databases include those that are available, either free or on a commercial basis, in the areas of clinical trials, drugs, investigational compounds, biomarkers, bioinformatics, cancer ontology and literature.  We then aggregate, annotate and integrate these datasets for the purpose of defining the relationship of biomarkers to therapeutic strategies, drugs and clinical trials. None of the individual databases we utilize as sources provide information on the interrelationships of these discrete elements.  In addition, CollabRx has developed a process for incorporating the guidance of our network of physician and research advisors in the selection of the most relevant data for specific diagnoses, histopathology data, prior treatments and biomarkers.  The result of this software- and expert-assisted process is proprietary content incorporated into our knowledge base which includes decision rules, succinct statements of therapeutic strategy and a comprehensive listing of appropriate drugs and clinical trials, all related to specific aberrations which might be observed in connection with genomic testing.

Although the process and results are proprietary, we always refer to the relevant source documentation that provides the support for the identification of an actionable biomarker, typically a peer-reviewed, published paper.  In this way, we avoid the “black-box algorithm problem”, which is prevalent in other companies’ predictive analytical models, but is not currently a trusted methodology in medical practice.  Our proprietary content is incorporated into our knowledge base, which is updated regularly with the assistance of a large network of independent advisors, and which forms the basis for all our products and services.  Our knowledge base contains no individual patient data, nor do our processes for providing related content include the review by our network of independent experts of any individual test data.

Our knowledge base informs two distinctly different products and services.

Genetic Variant Annotation™ Service. The “Genetic Variant Annotation” or “GVA” is a service offered to diagnostic testing laboratories, including academic medical centers and commercial laboratories.  Our lab customers provide us with a test result, usually in the form of an electronic file that represents the results of a genomic test, typically from a “Next Generation Sequencing” (“NGS”),  micro-array or similar testing platform.  The test results provided to us contain no patient-identifiable information.  We analyze the test results for the purpose of identifying those genetic alterationswhich we have annotated in advance as being “actionable” (i.e., related to a therapeutic strategy).  We provide the testing lab with a report, incorporating information regarding identified biomarkers and associated therapeutic strategies for each, along with relevant drugs and clinical trials, to a level and in a format that we have agreed in advance with our customer.  We are compensated for this service either on a per-test or on a volume-adjusted subscription basis.   This service is not available to the public and is not available on our website.

---

Therapy Finder Products.  Our Therapy Finder™ products are a series of cancer-specific, web-based and mobile apps which are accessed by physicians and patients, usually in the physician’s office.  After indicating a number of pre-set options related to stage of cancer, histopathology, prior treatments and presence of biomarkers on an input page, the physician is presented with a results page which explains the role of the biomarker, identifies a possible therapeutic strategy for that particular set of inputs, along with tabs associated with searchable lists of relevant drugs and clinical trials. Therapy Finders are an interactive, informational and educational resource for both physicians and patients, and can be used for decision-support.  They neither contain nor store any patient identifiable information.  The advisors associated with the development and updating of each app are prominently featured.  The development and distribution of Therapy Finders is partially supported by sponsorships and advertising revenue.  They are available free of charge through both a commercial channel (in association with MedPage Today, a property of on-line media company, Everyday Health, Inc.) and on our company website.  Our aim is to make this tool available as widely as possible, through as many channels as possible, to help community physicians understand the relevance of biomarker testing and the availability of potential therapies for their advanced cancer patients.

 

Recently, we redesigned our Therapy Finders so that they could be accessed by physicians using the iOS operating system from Apple, Inc. via an iPhone or an iPad, and have named this mobile application “CancerRx®.” CancerRx was co-developed with MedPage Today of Everyday Health, Inc., with the ownership of the application retained by CollabRx. A special feature of CancerRx is a daily oncology newsfeed from MedPage Today, all with real-time over the air updates. Our agreement with MedPage Today has each side absorbing its own costs for the development, but sharing the gross advertising, sponsorship and data analytics revenues associated with the app.  We officially launched CancerRx on May 28, 2014 in connection with the 2014 American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) meeting.

We intend to pursue collaborative arrangements with other companies and entities that provide contract research services to oncology practices, conduct in-house clinical and translational research, collect information on patient outcomes and link this information to genetic sequencing data, and calculate the relative costs and benefits associated with different diagnostic tests and therapies.  We expect such efforts to lead to novel insights and advances to improve the quality of cancer care and reduce the costs of delivering it.  The physicians and researchers within our network of advisors have agreed to participate in our efforts for an indefinite term, on an uncompensated basis, and without a formal agreement.  The board assignments, biographies and current affiliations of all of our advisors are posted on our website. 

The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements contemplate the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future.  We incurred net losses of $1,248 and $797 for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.  We used $733 and $611 of cash in operating activities for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.  We believe that our existing cash and cash equivalents will be adequate to fund the Company’s operations requirements and obligations into the third quarter of fiscal year 2015.

 

  On June 25, 2014, the Company closed an underwritten public offering of 913,500 shares of its common stock, offered at a public offering price of $2.00 per share. Gross proceeds to CollabRx from this offering were $1,827 before deducting the underwriting discount and other estimated offering expenses payable by CollabRx. CollabRx anticipates using the net proceeds from the offering for general corporate purposes, including development of its products and services, general and administrative expenses and working capital. Aegis Capital Corporation acted as the sole book-running manager for the offering.  In addition to the offering of 913,500 shares of common stock, 27,405 warrants to purchase shares of common stock were issued in connection with this offering, and were sold to Aegis Capital Corporation for one hundred dollars.  These warrants have an exercise price of $2.50 per share and are not exercisable until June 24, 2015 and expire June 24, 2020.  Such securities could potentially dilute earnings per share in future periods.  Previously deferred financing expenses incurred to raise equity capital related to financing transactions prior to the completion of the financing, as well as other related expenses incurred in the current period, were recognized in the current period and offset the gross proceeds raised.   Total underwriting discount and financing expenses were $466.

 

  This offering was made pursuant to an effective shelf registration statement (No. 333-193019) previously filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). A final prospectus supplement and accompanying prospectus describing the terms of the offering has been filed with the SEC and is available on the SEC's website located at http://www.sec.gov.

 

  While the Company successfully completed the aforementioned public offering which netted $1,641 before additional financing expenses, without additional capital, our recurring losses from operations raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

 

Until the Company can generate sufficient levels of cash from its operations, we may need to sell equity or debt securities to raise additional funds to continue to operate as a going concern beyond the third quarter of fiscal year 2015. In addition, the perception that we may not be able to continue as a going concern may cause others to choose not to pursue a business relationship with us due to concerns about our ability to meet our contractual obligations and may adversely affect our ability to raise additional capital. 

---

The Company expects to continue to finance future cash needs primarily through proceeds from equity financings and collaborative agreements with strategic partners or through a business combination with a company that has such financing in order to be able to sustain its operations until the Company can achieve profitability and positive cash flows.

 

  There can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain the funds required for our continued operations. There can be no assurance that additional financing will be available to us or, if available, that it can be obtained on commercially reasonable terms. If we are not able to obtain financing on a timely basis, we will not be able to meet our obligations as they become due and we will be forced to scale down or perhaps even cease the operation of our business.

Discontinued Operations

 

  The Company sold its remaining patents relating to its discontinued semiconductor capital equipment business in fiscal year 2014.  With this sale and the closure of the former Tegal’s foreign subsidiaries, also in the prior fiscal year, the Company has no other activities or assets related to discontinued operations.

Basis of Presentation

In the opinion of management, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the March 31, 2014 audited consolidated financial statements and include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to fairly state the information set forth herein.  The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), but omit certain information and footnote disclosures necessary to present the financial statements in accordance with GAAP.  The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty, and contemplate the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming we will continue as a going concern.  These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and footnotes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2014, filed on June 9, 2014.  The results of operations for the three months ended June 30, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the entire year.

Reclassification

 

  Certain prior year operating expense amounts were reclassified, still within operating expenses, to conform to the current year presentation.

Comprehensive Loss

 

  Comprehensive loss is defined as the change in equity of the Company during the period from transactions and other events and circumstances, excluding transactions resulting from investments by owners and other distributions to owners.   For the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, the Company had no items of other comprehensive loss.  Therefore the net loss equals the comprehensive loss for each of the three months then ended.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could vary from those estimates.

Concentration of Credit Risk

      Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash investments.  The Company’s accounts receivable balance is also subject to credit risk. Substantially all of the Company’s liquid investments are invested in money market funds. The Company’s accounts receivable are derived primarily from sales to customers located in the United States.  The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and generally requires no collateral. The Company no longer maintains reserves for potential credit losses. There have been no write-offs during the periods presented.

---

 

  For the three months ended June 30, 2014, Quest Diagnostics, Cellnetix and Everyday Health accounted for 26%, 23% and 20%, respectively, of the Company’s revenue.  For the three months ended June 30, 2013, Life Technologies and Everyday Health accounted for 93% and 7%, respectively, of the Company’s revenue.

  Life Technologies, Inc. has been a major contributor to our revenue and gross profit in the past, however, we have funded the Company’s operating expenses primarily with cash on hand, the net proceeds from the sale of discontinued assets, as disclosed in prior filings, and our recent follow-on public offering of stock.  We are actively engaged in negotiations with several other companies who are interested in purchasing our content on similar terms or under annual subscriptions or software-as-a-service (“SaaS”) arrangements.

  For the period ended June 30, 2014, Quest Diagnostics and Jackson Labs accounted for 95% of the balance in accounts receivable.  Life Technologies accounted for 100% of the balance in accounts receivable for the period ended June 30, 2013.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments having a maturity of three months or less on the date of purchase to be cash equivalents.

As of June 30, 2014 and March 31, 2014, all of the Company’s cash equivalents are included as Level 1 assets on the fair value hierarchy, and were held in the form of money market accounts in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. As of June 30, 2014 and March 31, 2014, the fair value of the Company’s investments approximated cost.

Promissory Notes Payable

  On July 12, 2012, Tegal completed the acquisition of CollabRx.  As part of the purchase price, Tegal issued promissory notes in the amount of $500 in exchange for existing CollabRx indebtedness.  The principal amount of the promissory notes is payable in equal installments on the third, fourth and fifth anniversaries of the date of issuance, along with the accrued but unpaid interest as of such dates.

  On November 22, 2011, the Company completed a $300 strategic investment in NanoVibronix, Inc., (“NanoVibronix”) a private company that develops medical devices and products that implement its proprietary therapeutic ultrasound technology.  The Company’s investment in NanoVibronix is in the form of a convertible promissory note that bears interest at a rate of 10% per year compounded annually and matures on November 15, 2014.  Our investment was intended to precede a possible merger of the two companies.  However, those discussions were terminated by mutual agreement between the parties and NanoVibronix, Inc. continues to operate as a private company as of June 30, 2014.  NanoVibronix has filed a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission in connection with a proposed initial public offering.  If the offering is completed, the Convertible Promissory Note will be converted into common stock of NanoVibronix.  In addition, should NanoVibronix, Inc. become a public company, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer will become a member of the NanoVibronix, Inc. Board of Directors.

  As of June 30, 2014 and March 31, 2014, the Convertible Promissory Note balance was $387 and $378, respectively, consisting of the original $300 investment and $87 and $78, respectively, in accrued interest.

Accounts Receivable – Allowance for Sales Returns and Doubtful Accounts

  For the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, the Company had zero reserves for potential credit losses as such risk was determined to be insignificant.  The Company does not currently maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts receivable for potential estimated losses resulting from the inability of the Company’s customers to make required payments.  The Company believes no such reserve is currently required.  The Company had zero write-offs during the periods presented.  The Company reviews the estimated risk of current customers’ inability to make payments on a quarterly basis to determine if any amount is uncollectible.

---

Revenue Recognition

  Each contract sale of our interpretive data is evaluated individually in regard to revenue recognition.  We have integrated in our evaluation the related guidance included in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 605, Revenue Recognition. We recognize revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the seller’s price is fixed or determinable and collectibility is reasonably assured.

  For arrangements that include multiple deliverables, we identify separate units of accounting based on the guidance under ASC 605-25, Multiple Element Arrangements, which provides that revenue arrangements with multiple deliverables should be divided into separate units of accounting, if certain criteria are met.  The consideration of the arrangement is allocated to the separate units of accounting using the relative selling price method.  Applicable revenue recognition criteria are considered separately for each separate unit of accounting.

 

  Revenue from fixed price contracts is recognized primarily under the percentage of completion method.  Under this method we recognize estimated contract revenue and resulting income based on costs incurred to date as a percentage of the total estimated costs as we consider this model to best reflect the economics of these contracts.  In such contracts, the Company’s efforts, measured by time incurred, typically represents the contractual milestones or output measure.   If at any time during the contract period, we determine that a loss will occur, we recognize the loss in that period. Furthermore, if in previous periods a profit was recognized under the percentage-of completion method, the profit would be reversed during the period we determined a loss on the contract exists.

Income Taxes

      We account for income taxes in accordance with ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes (“ASC 740”), which requires that deferred tax assets and liabilities be recognized using enacted tax rates for the effect of temporary differences between the book and tax bases of recorded assets and liabilities. Under ASC 740, the liability method is used in accounting for income taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between financial reporting and the tax basis of assets and liabilities, and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. ASC 740 also requires that deferred tax assets be reduced by a valuation allowance if it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. We evaluate annually our ability to realize our deferred tax assets by assessing our valuation allowance and by adjusting the amount of such allowance, if necessary. The factors used to assess the likelihood of realization include our forecast of future taxable income and available tax planning strategies that could be implemented to realize the net deferred tax assets. In 2014 and 2013, we have recorded a full valuation allowance for our deferred tax assets based on our past losses and uncertainty regarding our ability to project future taxable income. In future periods, if we are able to generate income we may reduce or eliminate the valuation allowance.

Fair Value Measurements

  The Company defines fair value as the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. When determining fair value measurements for assets and liabilities required or permitted to be recorded at fair value, we consider the principal or most advantageous market in which we would transact and we consider what assumptions market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, such as inherent risk, transfer restrictions, and risk of nonperformance.   The fair value hierarchy distinguishes between (1) market participant assumptions developed based on market data obtained from independent sources (observable inputs) and (2) an entity’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions developed based on the best information available in the circumstances (unobservable inputs). The fair value hierarchy consists of three broad levels, which gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:

 

●

Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for assets or liabilities.

●

Level 2: Directly or indirectly observable inputs as of the reporting date through correlation with market data, including quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets and quoted prices in markets that are not active. Level 2 also includes assets and liabilities that are valued using models or other pricing methodologies that do not require significant judgment since the input assumptions used in the models, such as interest rates and volatility factors, are corroborated by readily observable data from actively quoted markets for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.

 

●

Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and reflect the use of significant management judgment. These values are generally determined using pricing models for which the assumptions utilize management’s estimates of market participant assumptions.

---

  In determining fair value, the Company utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible as well as considers counterparty credit risk in its assessment of fair value.

The Company’s financial instruments consist primarily of money market funds denominated in U.S. dollars.  The carrying amounts of our cash and cash equivalents are valued using Level 1 inputs.Our cash equivalents total $2,068. 

Intangible Assets

  Intangible assets include patents, trade names, software, non-compete agreements, customer relationships and trademarks that are amortized on a straight-line basis over periods ranging from three to ten years.  The Company performs an ongoing review of its identified intangible assets to determine if facts and circumstances exist that indicate the useful life is shorter than originally estimated or the carrying amount may not be recoverable.  If such facts and circumstances exist, the Company assesses the recoverability of identified intangible assets by comparing the projected undiscounted net cash flow associated with the related asset or group of assets over their remaining lives against their respective carrying amounts.  Impairment, if any, is based on the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value of those assets.   As of the current reporting period, the Company’s remaining intangible assets, not including those related to the acquisition of CollabRx, were internally developed, which have a carrying value of zero. Currently the Company expenses all costs incurred to renew or extend the term of a recognized intangible asset.

  The Company sold its remaining patents relating to its discontinued semiconductor capital equipment business in fiscal year 2014.  With this sale, the Company has no other intangible assets related to discontinued operations.

With the acquisition of CollabRx, the Company acquired software, trade names, customer relationships, non-compete agreements and goodwill.  The lives of the acquired intangible assets range from three to ten years.  Intangible assets, except for trade names, are amortized on a straight-line basis.  Intangible assets related to trade names are not amortized.  The Company tests for impairment at least annually.  The fair values of these assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount might not be recoverable. If undiscounted expected future cash flows are less than the carrying value of the assets, an impairment loss will be recognized based on the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value of the assets.  The Company recognized $52 of amortization expense for each of the three month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.   The amortization expense included in cost of revenue is related to the acquired software and is amortized on a straight-line basis over the expected life of the asset, which the Company believes to be ten years.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

Deferred Offering Costs

  Deferred offering costs represent expenses incurred to raise equity capital related to financing transactions which have not yet been completed.  In the current quarter, the Company recognized previously deferred offering costs of $162 in connection with its underwritten public offering of 913,500 shares of its common stock, which closed on June 25, 2014.   The remaining financing costs not included in the underwriters discount for this offering were $118.   These expenses were recognized in Additional Paid in Capital during the three months ended June 30, 2014.

Stock-Based Compensation

  We have adopted several stock plans that provide for issuance of equity instruments to our employees and non-employee directors. Our plans include incentive and non-statutory stock options and restricted stock awards.  These equity awards generally vest ratably over a four-year period on the anniversary date of the grant, and stock options expire ten years after the grant date. Certain restricted stock awards may vest on the achievement of specific performance targets.  The Company also had an Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“ESPP”), allowing qualified employees to purchase Company shares at 85% of the fair market value on specified dates.  The ESPP was allowed to expire on July 22, 2014 and has not been renewed.

---

  Total stock-based compensation expense related to stock options and restricted stock units (“RSUs”) for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 was $94 and $84, respectively.

  The Company utilized the following valuation assumptions to estimate the fair value of options that were granted for the three month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

  ESPP awards are valued using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with expected volatility calculated using a six-month historical volatility.   No ESPP awards were made in the three month period ended June 30, 2014.

 

Valuation and Other Assumptions for Stock Options

 

  Valuation and Amortization Method.    We estimate the fair value of stock options granted using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. We estimate the fair value using a single option approach and amortize the fair value on a straight-line basis for options expected to vest. All options are amortized over the requisite service periods of the awards, which are generally the vesting periods.

 

  Expected Term.   The expected term of options granted represents the period of time that the options are expected to be outstanding. We estimate the expected term of options granted based on our historical experience of exercises including post-vesting exercises and termination.

 

  Expected Volatility.    We estimate the volatility of our stock options at the date of grant using historical volatilities.  Historical volatilities are calculated based on the historical prices of our common stock over a period at least equal to the expected term of our option grants.

 

  Risk-Free Interest Rate.    We base the risk-free interest rate used in the Black-Scholes option pricing model on the implied yield in effect at the time of option grant on U.S. Treasury zero-coupon issues with remaining terms equivalent to the expected term of our option grants.

 

  Dividends.    We have never paid any cash dividends on common stock and we do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future.

 

  Forfeitures.    We use historical data to estimate pre-vesting option forfeitures. We record stock-based compensation expense only for those awards that are expected to vest.

 

  During the three months ended June 30, 2014, the Company granted 11,668 options.

Stock Options

 

  A summary of the stock option activity during the three months ended June 30, 2014 is as follows:

  The aggregate intrinsic value of stock options outstanding as of June 30, 2014 is calculated as the difference between the exercise price of the underlying options and the market price of our common stock as of June 30, 2014.

  The following table summarizes information with respect to stock options outstanding as of June 30, 2014:

  As of June 30, 2014, there was $366 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to outstanding options which the Company expects to recognize over an estimated weighted average period of 2.8 years.

Restricted Stock Units

  The following table summarizes the Company’s unvested RSU activity for the three months ended June 30, 2014:

 

---

Unvested Restricted Stock as of June 30, 2014

  As of June 30, 2014, there was $162 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to outstanding RSUs, which the Company expects to recognize over an estimated weighted average period of 1.1 years.

  In June 2014, Mr. Mika voluntarily forfeited vested deferred restricted stock units providing him the right to receive 138,203 shares of the Company’s common stock.

  On July 3, 2014, the Company granted 122,400 options to employees, members of the Board of Directors, and a consultant and 100,000 RSUs to Thomas Mika, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer.   The maximum number of shares of stock that may be subject to one or more awards granted to any one participant pursuant to the 2007 Plan during any calendar year is currently 100,000, and the Board intends to grant an additional 50,000 RSUs to Mr. Mika at the beginning of the next calendar year.

2.	Earnings Per Share (EPS):

 

  Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common stockholders (numerator) by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding (denominator) for the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period. The computation of diluted EPS uses the average market prices during the period.

  Basic net loss per common share is computed using the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding.

  The following table represents the calculation of basic and diluted net loss per common share:

  Including 60,831 shares of vested and deferred RSUs, there are outstanding options and RSUs of 536,058 and 414,236 shares of common stock at a weighted-average exercise price per share of $8.93 and $10.35 on June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, were not included in the computation of diluted net loss per common share for each of the three month periods presented as a result of their anti-dilutive effect.  Also, warrants to purchase 92,888 shares of common stock with a weighted average exercise price of $3.15 per share were not included in the computation of diluted net loss per common share.  These warrants, which represent the balance of Sequel Power’s grant, expire January 14, 2015.  In addition, the outstanding balance excludes 27,405 warrants to purchase shares of common stock, which were issued in connection with the recent public offering, which closed on June 25, 2104.  These warrants have an exercise price of $2.50 per share and are not exercisable until June 24, 2015 and expire June 24, 2020.  Such securities could potentially dilute earnings per share in future periods.

3.	Financial Instruments:

  The carrying amount of the Company’s financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable, convertible promissory note, notes receivable, accrued expenses, promissory note payable and other liabilities approximates fair value due to their relatively short maturity. The Company currently has only minimal sales in global markets and is not exposed to changes in foreign currency exchange rates.  The Company does not hold derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes.  Foreign currency transaction gains and (losses), if any, are included in other income (expense), and were $0 for the three month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013.  On June 30, 2014, the Company had no open foreign exchange contracts to sell Euros or any other foreign currencies.  Certain warrants expired on September 9, 2013, which then ended the Company’s liability associated with these warrants, which had an exercise price of $30.00.  The Company recorded a non-cash gain $3 in the three months ended June 30, 2013.

Changes in the exchange rate between the Euro and the U.S. dollar are currently immaterial to our operating results. Exposure to foreign currency exchange rate risk may increase over time as our business evolves.

On November 22, 2011, the Company completed a $300 strategic investment in NanoVibronix, Inc., a private company that develops medical devices and products that implement its proprietary therapeutic ultrasound technology.  The Company’s investment in NanoVibronix is in the form of a convertible promissory note that bears interest at a rate of 10% per year compounded annually and matures on November 15, 2014.  Principal and accrued interest under the note automatically convert into shares of Series B-1 Participating Convertible Preferred Stock of NanoVibronix upon the earlier to occur of (i) a $3,000 (or larger) equity financing by NanoVibronix or (ii) a sale of NanoVibronix.  In addition, the Company may convert principal and accrued interest under the note into shares of NanoVibronix Series B-1 Participating Convertible Preferred Stock at its election at any time.  In either case, the conversion price is $0.284 per share.

  Our investment was intended to precede a possible merger of the two companies.  However, those discussions were terminated by mutual agreement between the parties and NanoVibronix, Inc. continues to operate as a private company. NanoVibronix has filed a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission in connection with a proposed initial public offering.  If the offering is completed, the Convertible Promissory Note will be converted into common stock of NanoVibronix.  In addition, should NanoVibronix, Inc. become a public company, then the Company’s Chief Executive Officer will become a member of the NanoVibronix, Inc. Board of Directors.

4.	Discontinued Operations:

  The Company sold its remaining patents relating to its discontinued semiconductor capital equipment business in fiscal year 2014.  With this sale, the Company has no other intellectual property related to discontinued operations.  With this sale and the closure of the former Tegal’s foreign subsidiaries, also in the prior fiscal year, the Company has no other activities or assets related to discontinued operations.

  The exit from the Company’s historical operations was essentially completed by the end of the fourth quarter of our 2011 fiscal year.

  In the three months ended June 30, 2013, the Company recognized a cash gain of $20 in discontinued operations as a result of final closing of bank accounts in its Italian subsidiary and a federal tax refund regarding discontinued operations, and a net $4 non cash gain related to the write off of discontinued assets and liabilities in its foreign subsidiaries.  In the same period, the Company also recognized a reclassification out of accumulated other comprehensive loss and into Loss from Discontinued Operations, net of taxes.  The reclassification is related to the recognition of a non-cash loss of $142 from the foreign exchange differences from its former Tegal foreign subsidiaries, primarily as a result of the final closing the former Tegal German subsidiary.   The Company received permission to close the German subsidiary in June 2013.  No further audits or reviews are anticipated by foreign taxing authorities.

  As of June 30, 2014, the Company had $0 in both discontinued assets and liabilities.  As of March 31, 2014, the Company had $0 in discontinued assets and $5 in discontinued liabilities.  During the three months ended June 30, 2014, the Company recognized no activity in discontinued operations.  With this sale, the Company has no remaining intellectual property related to discontinued operations.

5.	Geographical and Segment Information:

  For the periods presented, the Company’s source of revenue was related to genomics based technology information services.  The Company’s chief operating decision-maker has been identified as the President and Chief Executive Officer, who reviews operating results to make decisions about allocating resources and assessing performance for the entire Company.

  For geographical reporting, revenues are attributed to the geographic location in which the customers’ facilities are located.  Long-lived assets consist of property, plant and equipment and are attributed to the geographic location in which they are located.  For all periods presented, revenue by geographic region were all in the United States.

  Revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, are all part of continuing operations, and all related to our genomics based technology information.

  CollabRx’s genomics based technology information business is the core of our business and operations going forward.  Additionally, all long-lived assets are located in the United States and are included in continuing operations.  There are no long-lived assets in discontinued operations.

6.	Recent Accounting Pronouncements:

  In March 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-05, Foreign Currency Matters (Topic 830): Parent's Accounting for the Cumulative Translation Adjustment upon Derecognition of Certain Subsidiaries or Groups of Assets within a Foreign Entity or of an Investment in a Foreign Entity (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force) (“ASU 2013-05”). ASU 2013-05 clarifies that when a parent reporting entity ceases to have a controlling financial interest in a subsidiary or group of assets that is a business within a foreign entity, the parent is required to apply the guidance in ASC 830-30 to release any related cumulative translation adjustment into net income. Accordingly, the cumulative translation adjustment should be released into net income only if the sale or transfer results in the complete or substantially complete liquidation of the foreign entity in which the subsidiary or group of assets had resided. ASU 2013-05 was effective prospectively for fiscal years and interim reporting periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2013. The new guidance was adopted and had no material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

  In July 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-11, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Presentation of an unrecognized tax benefit when a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward exists (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force) (“ASU 2013-11”). The new guidance requires entities to report an unrecognized tax benefit, or a portion of an unrecognized tax benefit, in the financial statements as a reduction to a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward, except as follows. To the extent a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward is not available at the reporting date under the tax law of the applicable jurisdiction to settle any additional income taxes that would result from the disallowance of a tax position or the tax law of the applicable jurisdiction does not require the entity to use, and the entity does not intend to use, the deferred tax asset for such purpose, the unrecognized tax benefit should be presented in the financial statements as a liability and should not be combined with deferred tax assets. The assessment of whether a deferred tax asset is available is based on the unrecognized tax benefit and deferred tax asset that exist at the reporting date and should be made presuming disallowance of the tax position at the reporting date. The new guidance was effective prospectively for fiscal years and interim reporting periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2013. The new guidance was adopted and had no material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

  In April 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-08, Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205) and Property, Plant, and Equipment (Topic 360): Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity (“ASU 2014-08”), which changes the requirements for reporting discontinued operations in Subtopic 205-20 Presentation of Financial Statements - Discontinued Operations. The ASU changes the definition of discontinued operations by limiting discontinued operations reporting to disposals that represent strategic shifts that have (or will have) a major effect on an entity’s operations and financial results. Under current U.S. GAAP, many disposals, some of which may be routine in nature and not representative of a substantive change in an entity’s strategy, are reported in discontinued operations. ASU 2014-08 requires expanded disclosures for discontinued operations designed to provide users of financial statements with more information about the assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and cash flows related to discontinued operations. ASU 2014-08 also requires an entity to disclose the pretax profit or loss (or change in net assets for a not-for-profit entity) of an individually significant component of an entity that does not qualify for discontinued operations reporting. The amendments in ASU 2014-08 are effective prospectively for fiscal years, and interim periods, beginning after December 15, 2014. Early adoption is permitted, but only for disposals (or classifications as held for sale) that have not been reported in financial statements previously issued or available for issuance. The Company does not expect the new guidance to have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.  See Note 5, Discontinued Operations.

---

  In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) and the IASB has issued IFRS 15, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The issuance of these documents completes the joint effort by the FASB and the IASB to improve financial reporting by creating common revenue recognition guidance for U.S. GAAP and IFRS. The new guidance affects any entity that either enters into contracts with customers to transfer goods or services or enters into contracts for the transfer of nonfinancial assets unless those contracts are within the scope of other standards. This ASU will supersede the revenue recognition requirements in Topic 605, Revenue Recognition, and most industry-specific guidance.   For public entities, the amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period.  Early application is not permitted. The Company will continue to evaluate this newly issued guidance.

  In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-12, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Accounting for Share Based Payments When the Terms of an Award Provide That a Performance Target Could Be Achieved After the Requisite Service Period. This ASU provides more explicit guidance for treating share-based payment awards that require a specific performance target that affects vesting and that could be achieved after the requisite service period as a performance condition.  The new guidance is effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015.  The Company does not expect the new guidance to have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

7.	Investments:

  On November 22, 2011, the Company completed a $300 strategic investment in NanoVibronix, a private company that develops medical devices and products that implement its proprietary therapeutic ultrasound technology.  NanoVibronix is focused on creating products utilizing its proprietary low-intensity surface acoustic wave (“SAW”) technology. The company's unique, patented approach enables the transmission of low-frequency, low-intensity ultrasound waves through a variety of soft, flexible materials, including skin and tissue, enabling low-cost, breakthrough devices targeted at large, high-growth markets.  A copy of the Company’s press release was filed as an exhibit to the Company’s Form 8-K filed on November 29, 2011 and is incorporated herein by reference.

  The Company’s investment in NanoVibronix is in the form of a convertible promissory note that bears interest at a rate of 10% per year compounded annually and matures on November 15, 2014.  Principal and accrued interest under the note automatically convert into shares of Series B-1 Participating Convertible Preferred Stock of NanoVibronix upon the earlier to occur of (i) a $3,000 (or larger) equity financing by NanoVibronix or (ii) a sale of NanoVibronix.  In addition, the Company may convert principal and accrued interest under the note into shares of NanoVibronix Series B-1 Participating Convertible Preferred Stock at its election at any time.  In either case, the conversion price is $0.284 per share.   Our investment was intended to precede a possible merger of the two companies.  However, those discussions were terminated by mutual agreement between the parties and NanoVibronix, Inc. continues to operate as a private company. NanoVibronix has filed a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission in connection with a proposed initial public offering.  If the offering is completed, the Convertible Promissory Note will be converted into common stock of NanoVibronix.  In addition, should NanoVibronix, Inc. become a public company, then the Company’s Chief Executive Officer will become a member of the NanoVibronix, Inc. Board of Directors.

8.	Subsequent Events:

 

In connection with the Company’s recently completed public offering, the underwriter was granted an option to purchase up to an additional 137,025 shares of common stock from the Company at the public offering price, less the underwriting discount, within 45 days, to cover over-allotments, if any.  The underwriter’s over-allotment option expired on August 3, 2014, without being exercised.

Corporate Information

CollabRx, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“CollabRx,” the “Company” or “we,” “us,” and “our”), is the renamed Tegal Corporation, (“Tegal”), which acquired a private company of the same name on July 12, 2012.  Following approval by its stockholders on September 25, 2012, Tegal amended its charter and changed its name to “CollabRx, Inc.” (the “Name Change”).

 

Tegal was formed in December 1989 to acquire the operations of the former Tegal Corporation, a division of Motorola, Inc.  Tegal’s predecessor company was founded in 1972 and acquired by Motorola, Inc. in 1978. Tegal completed its initial public offering in October 1995.

Company Background

  CollabRx (f/k/a Tegal) was formed in December 1989 to acquire the operations of the former Tegal Corporation, a division of Motorola, Inc.  Until recently, we designed, manufactured, marketed and serviced specialized systems used primarily in the production of semiconductors and micro-electrical mechanical devices, including integrated circuits, memory devices, sensors, accelerometers and power devices.  Beginning in late 2009, we experienced a sharp decline in revenues resulting from the collapse of the semiconductor capital equipment market and the global financial crisis.  In a series of transactions from 2010 to 2012, we sold the majority of our operating assets and intellectual property portfolio.  During the same time period, our Board of Directors evaluated a number of strategic alternatives, which included the continued operation of the Company as a stand-alone business with a different business plan, a merger with another company, a sale of the Company’s remaining assets, and the liquidation or dissolution of the Company.  We investigated opportunities within and outside the semiconductor capital equipment industry and evaluated a number of transactions involving other diversified technology-based companies.   Throughout this process, we developed and refined our criteria for a business combination, with an eventual focus on the healthcare industry, and specifically information technology and services within the healthcare industry.  In July 2012, we completed our acquisition of CollabRx (the “CollabRx Transaction”).  Following approval by our stockholders on September 25, 2012, we amended our charter and changed our name to “CollabRx, Inc.” (the “Name Change”).

Overview of our Current Business

CollabRx, Inc. is a development stage company just entering the commercialization phase of our business.  We are focused on developing and delivering content-rich knowledge-based products and services that inform healthcare decision-making, with an emphasis on genomics-based “precision” medicine and big data analytics.   Our proprietary content is organized in a knowledge base that expresses the relationship between genetic profiles and therapy considerations including molecular diagnostics, medical tests, clinical trials, drugs, biologics, and other information relevant for cancer treatment planning.  We have developed a method for capturing how practicing physicians use this information in the clinical setting, by incorporating within the knowledge base the views of a large network of independent key opinion leaders in medicine and medical research.

We search publicly available databases as source documents for our knowledge base.  Such databases include those that are available, either free or on a commercial basis, in the areas of clinical trials, drugs, investigational compounds, biomarkers, bioinformatics, cancer ontology and literature.  We aggregate, annotate and integrate these datasets for the purpose of defining the relationship of biomarkers to therapeutic strategies, drugs and clinical trials. None of the individual databases we utilize as sources provide information on the interrelationships of these discrete elements.  In addition, CollabRx has developed a process for incorporating the guidance of our network of physician and research advisors in the selection of the most relevant data for specific diagnoses, histopathology data, prior treatments and biomarkers represented within the knowledge base.  The result of this software- and expert-assisted process is proprietary content which includes decision rules, succinct statements of therapeutic strategy and a comprehensive listing of appropriate drugs and clinical trials, all related to specific aberrations which might be observed in connection with genomic testing.  Although the process and results are proprietary, we always refer to the relevant source documentation that provides the support for the identification of an actionable biomarker, typically a peer-reviewed, published paper.  In this way, we avoid the “black-box algorithm problem”, which is prevalent in other companies’ predictive analytical models, but is not currently a trusted methodology in medical practice.  Our proprietary content is incorporated into our knowledge base, which is updated regularly with the assistance of a large network of independent advisors, and which forms the basis for all our products and services.

---

Our knowledge base contains no individual patient data, nor do our processes for providing content include the review by our network of independent experts of any individual test data.  The physicians and researchers within our network of advisors have agreed to participate in our efforts for an indefinite term, on an uncompensated basis, and without a formal agreement.  The board assignments, biographies and current affiliations of all of our advisors are posted on our website.

We currently deliver our proprietary content to users via web-based applications and services in the “cloud, ” serving physicians and their patients in two settings: (i) at the point-of-care in the clinic and (ii) indirectly, as a part of a genetic test report provided to an ordering physician by a diagnostic testing laboratory, (i.e., the “lab”).  Portions of our web-based applications are currently available free to physicians and patients through commercial on-line media partners.  The content that we offer to laboratories is based on a “Software as a Service” or SaaS business model, in which our content is provided on a one-time, subscription or per test basis.   We use the term “cloud” to mean a product or service that can be delivered via the Internet, usually on a pay-for-use or subscription basis, versus the purchase and installation of enterprise-based software, which typically requires investments in both software and hardware, often also requiring large-scale customization efforts.

Our “Genetic Variant Annotation™” or “GVA” is a service offered to diagnostic testing laboratories, including academic medical centers and commercial laboratories.  Our lab customers provide us with a test result, usually in the form of an electronic file that represents the results of a genomic test, typically from a “Next Generation Sequencing” (“NGS”), micro-array or similar testing platform.  The test results provided to us contain no patient-identifiable information.  We analyze the test results for the purpose of identifying those alterations which we have annotated in advance as being “actionable” (i.e., related to a therapeutic strategy).  We provide the testing lab with a report, incorporating specific information regarding identified biomarkers and associated therapeutic strategies for each, along with relevant drugs and clinical trials, to a level and in a format that we have agreed in advance with our customer.  We are compensated for this service either on a per-test or on a volume-adjusted subscription basis.   This service is not available to the public and is not available on our website.

 

  Our Therapy Finder™ products are a series of cancer-specific, web-based and mobile apps which are accessed by physicians and patients, usually in the physician’s office.  After indicating a number of pre-set options related to stage of cancer, histopathology, prior treatments and presence of biomarkers on an input page, the physician is presented with a results page which explains the role of the biomarker, identifies a possible therapeutic strategy for that particular set of inputs, along with tabs associated with searchable lists of relevant drugs and clinical trials. Therapy Finders are an interactive, informational and educational resource for both physicians and patients, and can be used for decision-support.  They neither contain nor store any patient identifiable information.   The advisors associated with the development and updating of each app are prominently featured.  The development and distribution of Therapy Finders is partially supported by sponsorships and advertising revenue.  They are available free of charge through both a commercial channel and on our company website.  Our aim is to make this tool available as widely as possible, through as many channels as possible, to help community physicians understand the relevance of biomarker testing and the availability of potential therapies for their advanced cancer patients.

Our Therapy Finder™ products are available free-of-charge on both our website and on the MedPage Today website.  There is no material difference between the Therapy Finders presented on both websites.  The only differences are cosmetic, such as background color and placement of individual frames.  Initially, the language used in our Therapy Finders presented on our website was geared toward patients.  When the opportunity arose in connection with MedPage Today, we modified the language to be more physician-friendly and indicated this by appending “Professional” to the title “Therapy Finder.”  In order to avoid confusion, we replaced the patient oriented version on our website with the professional version that is distributed through MedPage Today.  At the same time, we also undertook to revise the other Therapy Finders appearing on our website, but not yet distributed through MedPage today, to the professional (physician-friendly) version, and labeled them as such.  We anticipate offering both professional and patient oriented versions of our Therapy Finders in the future.

Recently, we redesigned our Therapy Finders so that they could be accessed by physicians using the iOS operating system from Apple, Inc. via an iPhone or an iPad, and have named this mobile application “CancerRx®.” CancerRx was co-developed with MedPage Today of Everyday Health, Inc., with the ownership of the application retained by CollabRx. A special feature of CancerRx is a daily oncology newsfeed from MedPage Today, all with real-time over the air updates. Our agreement with MedPage Today has each side absorbing its own costs for the development, but sharing the gross advertising, sponsorship and data analytics revenues associated with the app.  We officially launched CancerRx on May 28, 2014 in connection with the 2014 American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) meeting.

---

The systems and approach that we have developed for knowledge aggregation, content creation and expert advisory management can be applied to many disease states, but we have chosen to focus initially on genomic medicine in cancer, which is sometimes referred to as “precision oncology.”  This is an area of tremendous activity and promise, where clinical research in genomics has given rise to scores of “targeted” therapies that have proven in many cases to prolong the lives of cancer patients.  We believe that oncology is also the area of greatest need, where physicians and patients lack convenient access to clear and easy-to-understand information about which drugs, tests and clinical trials should be considered in constructing a cancer treatment plan based on the genetic profile of a tumor.  Our overall vision is that we are at the dawn of an era of explosive growth of data and information generated at the molecular level that must be interpreted and contextualized into knowledge before it can be used effectively by either physicians or patients.   We regard this knowledge as being the most valuable portion of the molecular diagnostic process and we believe that all sectors of the healthcare industry, including providers, insurers, drug developers and patients are potential users of this knowledge. We aim to deliver our proprietary interpretive content as quickly as possible and in as many usable forms as possible, via the Internet.

The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared using the going concern basis, which assumes that we will be able to realize our assets and discharge our liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future.  The condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”).

Originally founded in 2008, CollabRx has developed clinical advisory networks, expert systems, proprietary tools and processes, and a pipeline of commercial data products and applications (“apps”) for cancer.  CollabRx Therapy Finders™, the Company’s first commercial product, provides sophisticated, credible, personalized, and actionable information to physicians and patients for rapidly determining which medical tests, therapies, and clinical trials may be considered in cancer treatment planning with a specific emphasis on the tumor genetic profile.  CollabRx combined three unique elements to solidify its position in advance of commercialization, namely the creation of a highly specialized knowledge base, specialized software tools and applications and a large network of independent experts.  CollabRx’s staff of PhD-level molecular biologists have worked directly on the curation of our oncology-specific knowledge base for over five years and are supported by others on our team who are trained in molecular biology and bioinformatics, along with consultants, contractors and interns.

We do not believe that any of our current or planned products are subject to regulation by the United States Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”) and other regulatory authorities worldwide.  However, our business could be adversely affected by any increased regulation of our customers.  Changes in the level of regulation, including an increase in regulatory requirements, could subject us to regulatory approvals and delays in launching our products or result in a decrease in demand for our products.  Modifying our products to comply with changes in regulations or regulatory guidance could require us to incur substantial costs. Further, changing regulatory requirements may render our products obsolete or make new products or product enhancements more costly or time consuming than we currently anticipate. Failure by us or our customers to comply with applicable regulations could result in increased regulatory scrutiny and enforcement. If our products fail to comply with government regulations or guidelines, we could incur significant liability or be forced to cease offering our applicable products or services.

In both domestic and foreign markets, sales by our customers may depend, in large part, upon the availability of reimbursement from third-party payers. These third-party payers include government healthcare programs such as Medicare, managed care providers, private health insurers, and other organizations.  Physicians and patients may not order genomic test services or products from our customers unless commercial third-party payers and government payers pay for all, or a substantial portion, of the list price, and certain commercial third-party payers may not agree to reimburse our customers if Centers for Medicaid and Medicare Services (“CMS”) does not issue a positive coverage decision.  There is currently no national coverage decision that determines whether and how certain genomic tests are covered by Medicare. In the absence of a national coverage decision, local Medicare contractors that administer the Medicare program in various regions have some discretion in determining coverage and therefore payment for such tests.  Accordingly, if our customers do not receive full or partial reimbursement for their tests, our revenue and results of operations could be adversely affected.

On November 22, 2011, we made an investment of $300 in NanoVibronix, Inc. in the form of a convertible promissory note.  NanoVibronix is a private company that develops medical devices and products that implement its proprietary therapeutic ultrasound technology which may be utilized for a variety of medical applications requiring low cost therapeutic ultrasound qualities. NanoVibronix is focused on creating products utilizing its unique, patented approach which enables the transmission of low-frequency, low-intensity ultrasound surface acoustic waves (“SAWs”) through a variety of soft, flexible materials, including skin and tissue, enabling low-cost, breakthrough devices targeted at large, high-growth markets.  Our investment was intended to precede a possible merger of the two companies.  However, those discussions were terminated by mutual agreement between the parties and NanoVibronix, Inc. continues to operate as a private company. NanoVibronix has filed a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission in connection with a proposed initial public offering.  If the offering is completed, the Convertible Promissory Note will be converted into common stock of NanoVibronix.  In addition, should NanoVibronix, Inc. become a public company, then the Company’s Chief Executive Officer will become a member of the NanoVibronix, Inc. Board of Directors.

CollabRx, Inc. will form the core of our operations going forward.  In September 2012, the Company changed its name to “CollabRx, Inc.” and the Company’s common stock, which previously traded under the ticker symbol “TGAL” on the Nasdaq Capital Market, began trading under the new ticker symbol “CLRX”.

We cannot assure you that we will be successful in pursuing our new strategic initiative in CollabRx.  If our efforts do not succeed, we may need to raise additional capital which may include capital raises through the issuance of debt or equity securities.  If additional funds are raised through the issuance of preferred stock or debt, these securities could have rights, privileges or preferences senior to those of our common stock, and debt covenants could impose restrictions on our operations. Moreover, such financing may not be available to us on acceptable terms, if at all.  Failure to raise any needed funds would materially adversely affect us.  It is not possible to predict when our business and results of operations will improve.  In consideration of these circumstances, the Company may be forced to consider a merger with another company or the liquidation or dissolution of the Company, including through a bankruptcy proceeding.  We cannot assure you that we will be successful in pursuing this or any other strategic alternatives.  If we were to liquidate or dissolve the Company through or outside of a bankruptcy proceeding, you could lose all of your investment in the Company’s common stock.

Discontinued Operations

  The Company sold its remaining patents relating to its discontinued semiconductor capital equipment business in fiscal year 2014.  With this sale, the Company has no other intellectual property related to discontinued operations.  With this sale and the closure of the former Tegal’s foreign subsidiaries, also in the prior fiscal year, the Company has no other activities or assets related to discontinued operations.

  The exit from the Company’s historical operations was essentially completed by the end of the fourth quarter of our 2011 fiscal year.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

We prepare the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP which requires management to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities and related footnotes.  Accounting and disclosure decisions with respect to material transactions that are subject to significant management judgment or estimates include but are not limited to revenue recognition, accounting for stock-based compensation, accounts for receivables and allowance for doubtful accounts and impairment of long-lived assets.  Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.  Critical accounting policies are defined as those that are required for management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions giving due consideration to materiality, in certain circumstances that affect amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements, and potentially result in materially different results under different conditions and assumptions.  We based these estimates and assumptions on historical experience and evaluate them on an on-going basis to help ensure they remain reasonable under current conditions.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.  During the three months ended June 30, 2014, there were no significant changes to the critical accounting policies and estimates discussed in the Company’s 2013 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

As a percentage of total revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2014, international sales were 1.2%.  As a percentage of total revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2013, international sales were 0%.

 

Gross Profit

     Gross profit for the three months ended June 30, 2014 decreased $206 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2013. Our gross profit reflects the amortization of the Company’s product specific software, which was included in the CollabRx acquisition.  Any engineering expenses related to revenue are also included in cost of revenue.  For the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively there were no additional engineering expenses included in cost of revenue.

     Our gross margins for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 were 71.9% and 93.3%, respectively.  These periods included revenue solely derived from our genomics based information products.  The amortization of acquired software is included in cost of goods.

Engineering

We define “Engineering” as those development activities that are related to products, content or services which have been offered for sale or for which we have been paid.  We define research and development (“R&D”) as those development activities which are related to products which have not yet been offered for sale or for activities for which we have not been paid. Engineering expenses consist primarily of salaries, and those salaries and related expenses are assigned to either Engineering or R&D based on the specific projects that the staff is working on during the quarter.  The increase in Engineering expense of $310 for the three months ended June 30, 2014, compared to the same period in 2013, reflected a higher level of effort on existing products than on products that had not yet been offered for sale.

Research and Development

The reduction of R&D expense of $124 for the three months ended June 30, 2014 compared to the same period in 2013 reflects the focus of development activities on products offered for sale, as opposed to those that may be offered in the future.  The launch of the Genetic Variant Annotation Service in August significantly lowered the amount of effort being devoted to future products.  Extensions or improvements to the Therapy Finders, CancerRx mobile app and the GVA, along with fee-for-service development activities are all assigned as Engineering expenses rather than R&D.

Sales and Marketing

Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of salaries.  The change in sales and marketing expense of $13 for the three months ended June 30, 2014, compared to the same period in 2013 resulted primarily from increased expenses for increased conference attendance.

General and Administrative

General and administrative expenses consist of salaries, legal, accounting and related administrative services and expenses associated with general management, finance, information systems, human resources and investor relations activities.  The increase in general and administrative expenses of $156 for the three month period ended June 30, 2014, compared to the same period in 2013 was due primarily to higher expenses related to consultants, investor relations and presentations, as well as higher expenses for director compensation and corporate taxes.

Other Income, net

 

  Other income, net primarily consists of the interest earned on our NanoVibronix investment.

Income Taxes

  As a result of the acquisition of CollabRx by stock purchase, the Company had no tax basis in the intangible assets acquired.  During the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, the Company recognized $20 in each period, respectively, in tax benefit as a result of this difference.  Due to our net loss and the aforementioned valuation allowance on the resulting deferred tax asset, the Company recognized no federal tax expense in the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

  The Company recognized $5 for city taxes and the annual minimum amount due for state income taxes in the three months ended June 30, 2014.

  As of March 31, 2014, the Company had net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $121.5 million and $65.2 million for federal and state tax purposes, respectively.  The federal net operating loss carryforward will begin to expire in the year ending March 31, 2020 and the state of California net operating loss carryforward began to expire in the year ended March 31, 2013.  As of March 31, 2014, the Company also had research and experimentation credit carryforwards of $1.4 million and $0.9 million for federal and state income tax purposes, respectively.  A portion of the federal credit began to expire in the year ended March 31, 2012 and the state of California will never expire under current law.   Net operating loss carryforwards and R&D credits can only offset 90% of taxable state income.

Discontinued Operations

 

  Discontinued operations consists of interest income from accounts related to discontinued operations, other income, gains and losses on the disposal of fixed assets of discontinued operations, gains and losses on foreign exchange and interest income on money market accounts, as well as the reclassification of net expenses associated with our exit from our historical core operations.  The Company no longer has any assets or liabilities associated with discontinued operations as of the end of fiscal year 2014.

---

  In the three months ended June 30, 2013, the Company completed the final closing of bank accounts in its Italian subsidiary.  It also recognized a net $4 non cash gain related to the write off of discontinued assets and liabilities in its foreign subsidiaries, and recognized a reclassification out of accumulated other comprehensive loss and into Loss from Discontinued Operations, net of taxes.  The reclassification is related to the recognition of a non-cash loss of $142 from the of foreign exchange differences from its former Tegal foreign subsidiaries, primarily as a result of the final closing of the former Tegal German subsidiary.   The Company received permission to close the German subsidiary in June 2013.  No further audits or reviews are anticipated by foreign taxing authorities.

  With the closure of the former Tegal’s foreign subsidiaries and the sale of the Company’s last two patent lots in fiscal year 2014, the Company has no other activities or assets related to discontinued operations.

Contractual Obligations

  The following summarizes our contractual obligations as of June 30, 2014, and the effect such obligations are expected to have on our liquidity and cash flows in future periods (in thousands).

 

Most leases provide for the Company to pay real estate taxes and other maintenance expenses. Rent expense for operating leases related to discontinued operations, net of sublease income, was $0 for the periods presented.  Rent expense for operating leases related to continuing operations was $31 and $41 for each of the three month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

As of September 1, 2012, we maintain our headquarters, encompassing our executive office and storage areas in San Francisco, California.   We have a primary lease for office space, consisting of 2,614 square feet, which expires August 31, 2017.  Prior to moving to San Francisco, we were located in Petaluma, California.  We rent storage/workspace areas on a monthly basis.  We own all of the equipment used in our facilities.  Such equipment consists primarily of computer related assets.

  Certain of our past sales contracts included provisions under which customers would be indemnified by us in the event of, among other things, a third party claim against the customer for intellectual property rights infringement related to our products. There are no limitations on the maximum potential future payments under these guarantees. We have accrued no amounts in relation to these provisions as no such claims have been made, and we believe we have valid, enforceable rights to the intellectual property embedded in our products.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

  For the three months ended June 30, 2014 and the fiscal year ended March 31, 2014, we financed our operations from existing cash on hand and the net proceeds from the sale of discontinued assets, as disclosed in prior filings.  Net cash used in operating activities during the three months ended June 30, 2014 was $733.  The primary changes in our cash flow statement for the three months ended June 30, 2014 compared to the corresponding period in the prior fiscal year were due to our net loss of $1,248, partially offset by changes in accrued expenses and a reclassification of financing expenses from prepaid assets to net against the proceeds of the Company’s recent round of new financing.  Net cash used in operating activities during the three months ended June 30, 2013 was $611, due primarily to our acquisition of CollabRx, and a net loss of $797, which were partially offset by changes in assets and liabilities of discontinued operations and stock compensation expense.

The condensed consolidated financial statements contemplate the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future. We incurred net losses of $1,248, and $797 for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.  We believe that our existing cash will be adequate to fund operations into the third quarter of fiscal year 2015.

---

  On June 25, 2014, the Company closed an underwritten public offering of 913,500 shares of its common stock, offered at a public offering price of $2.00 per share. Gross proceeds to CollabRx from this offering were $1,827 before deducting the underwriting discount and other estimated offering expenses payable by CollabRx. CollabRx anticipates using the net proceeds from the offering for general corporate purposes, including development of their products and services, general and administrative expenses and working capital.  Aegis Capital Corp. acted as the sole book-running manager for the offering.  In addition to the offering of 913,500 shares of common stock, 27,405 warrants to purchase shares of common stock were issued in connection with this offering.  These warrants have an exercise price of $2.50 per share and are not exercisable until June 24, 2015 and expire June 24, 2020.  Such securities could potentially dilute earnings per share in future periods.  Previously deferred financing expenses incurred to raise equity capital related to financing transactions prior to the completion of the financing, as well as other related expenses incurred in the current period, were recognized in the current period and offset the gross proceeds raised.   Total underwriting discount and financing expenses were $466.

 

  The Company netted $1,641 of the gross proceeds of $1,827 before additional financing expenses.  Even so, without additional capital, our recurring losses from operations raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. 

The Company expects to continue to finance future cash needs primarily through proceeds from equity financings and collaborative agreements with strategic partners or through a business combination with a company that has such financing in order to be able to sustain its operations until the Company can achieve profitability and positive cash flows.

While CollabRx, Inc. will form the core of our business and operations going forward, we cannot assure you that we will be successful in pursuing our strategic initiative in CollabRx.  It is not possible to predict when our business and results of operations will improve.  In consideration of these circumstances, the Company may be forced to consider a merger with another company or the liquidation or dissolution of the Company, including through a bankruptcy proceeding.  If we were to liquidate or dissolve the Company through or outside of a bankruptcy proceeding, you could lose all of your investment in the Company’s common stock.

 

  The Company’s investing activities consisted primarily of furniture purchases for additional staff.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not currently have, nor have we ever had, any relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, such as entities often referred to as structured finance or special purpose entities, established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements or other contractually narrow or limited purposes. In addition, we do not engage in trading activities involving non-exchange traded contracts.

Item 3.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Foreign Currency Exchange Risk

As of June 30, 2014 and March 31, 2014, all of the Company’s cash equivalents were held in the form of money market accounts denominated in U.S. dollars  in the condensed consolidated balance sheet.  Changes in the exchange rate between other currencies and the U.S. dollar are currently immaterial to our operating results. Exposure to foreign currency exchange rate risk may increase over time as our business evolves.

---

Fair Value Measurements

  The Company defines fair value as the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. When determining fair value measurements for assets and liabilities required or permitted to be recorded at fair value, we consider the principal or most advantageous market in which we would transact and we consider what assumptions market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, such as inherent risk, transfer restrictions, and risk of nonperformance.   The fair value hierarchy distinguishes between (1) market participant assumptions developed based on market data obtained from independent sources (observable inputs) and (2) an entity’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions developed based on the best information available in the circumstances (unobservable inputs). The fair value hierarchy consists of three broad levels, which gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:

●

Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for assets or liabilities.

●

Level 2: Directly or indirectly observable inputs as of the reporting date through correlation with market data, including quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets and quoted prices in markets that are not active. Level 2 also includes assets and liabilities that are valued using models or other pricing methodologies that do not require significant judgment since the input assumptions used in the models, such as interest rates and volatility factors, are corroborated by readily observable data from actively quoted markets for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.

●

Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and reflect the use of significant management judgment. These values are generally determined using pricing models for which the assumptions utilize management’s estimates of market participant assumptions.

 

  In determining fair value, the Company utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible as well as considers counterparty credit risk in its assessment of fair value.

 

  Our financial instruments consist primarily of money market funds.  As of June 30, 2014, all of our investments were classified as cash equivalents in the condensed consolidated balance sheet. The carrying amounts of our cash equivalents are valued using Level 1 inputs.  Our cash equivalents total $2,068.

Interest Rate Risk

 We are only marginally exposed to interest rate risk through interest earned on money market accounts. Interest rates that may affect these items in the future will depend on market conditions and may differ from the rates we have experienced in the past. We do not hold or issue derivatives, commodity instruments or other financial instruments for trading purposes.

Item 4.

Controls and Procedures

 

Disclosure Controls and Internal Controls for Financial Reporting

 

 Disclosure controls are procedures that are designed with the objective of ensuring that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act such as this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls are also designed with the objective of ensuring that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Acting Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Internal controls for financial reporting are procedures which are designed with the objective of providing reasonable assurance that our transactions are properly authorized, our assets are safeguarded against unauthorized or improper use and our transactions are properly recorded and reported, all to permit the preparation of our financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures 

     As of the period covered by this quarterly report, management performed, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Acting Chief Financial Officer, an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act.  Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the report we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Acting Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.   Based on the evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Acting Chief Financial Officer concluded that as of June 30, 2014, such disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

  There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2014 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Item 1A.

Risk Factors

  We wish to caution you that there are risks and uncertainties that could affect our business. A description of the risk factors associated with our business that you should consider when evaluating our business is included under “Risk Factors” contained in Item 1A. of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2014.  In addition to those factors and to other information in this Form 10-Q, the following updates to the risk factors should be considered carefully when evaluating the Company or our business.

We operate in a rapidly changing environment that involves a number of risks, some of which are beyond our control. The risks described below are those which we believe are the material risks we face. Any of the risk factors described below or additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us, or that we currently deem immaterial, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Our future growth is dependent on the successful development and introduction of new products and enhancements. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in developing and marketing, on a timely basis, new products or product enhancements, or that our new products will adequately address the changing needs of the health care marketplace.

A significant portion of our operating expense is relatively fixed and planned expenditures are based in part on expectations regarding future revenues. As a result, we are generally unable to mitigate the negative impact on margins in the short term.  Accordingly, unexpected revenue shortfalls may significantly decrease our operating results from quarter to quarter. As a result, in future quarters our operating results could fall below the expectations of securities analysts or investors, in which event our stock price would likely decrease.

We have a history of losses, expect to incur substantial further losses and may not achieve or maintain profitability in the future, which in turn could further materially decrease the price of our common stock.

We had net losses of $1,248, $3,314 and $3,928, for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and the fiscal years ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. We used cash flows from operations of $733, $2,593 and $3,838 in these respective periods.  We expect to continue to sustain losses for the foreseeable future, which may decrease the price of our common stock.

---

Although we believe that our existing cash balances will be adequate to fund operations into the third quarter of our fiscal year 2015, we cannot assure you that we will be successful in pursuing any of the strategic alternatives described in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Without additional capital, our recurring losses from operations raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.  We may need to generate significant revenue or sell equity or debt securities to raise additional funds to continue to operate as a going concern beyond the third quarter of fiscal year 2015.  In addition, the perception that we may not be able to continue as a going concern may cause others to choose not to deal with us due to concerns about our ability to meet our contractual obligations and may adversely affect our ability to raise additional capital.

Our quarterly operating results may continue to fluctuate.

Our revenue and operating results have fluctuated and are likely to continue to fluctuate significantly from quarter to quarter, and we cannot assure you that we will achieve profitability in the future.

Factors that could affect our quarterly operating results include:

 

●

operating results of CollabRx;

●

operating results of any companies that we may acquire in the future;

 

●

fluctuations in demand for our products, and the timing of agreements with strategic partners in the health care marketplace;

 

●

the timing of new products and product enhancements;

 

●

changes in the growth rate of the health care marketplace;

 

●

our ability to control costs, including operations expenses;

 

●

our ability to develop, induce and gain market acceptance for new products and product enhancements;

 

●

changes in the competitive environment, including the entry of new competitors and related discounting of products;

 

●

adverse changes in the level of economic activity in the United States or other major economies in which we do business;

 

●

renewal rates and our ability to up-sell additional products;

 

●

the timing of customer acquisitions;

 

●

the timing of revenue recognition for our sales; and

 

●

future accounting pronouncements or changes in our accounting policies.

---

Our future success depends on our ability to retain our key personnel.

We are dependent on the services of our executive officers, our technical experts and other members of our senior management team, particularly Thomas Mika, our President and Chief Executive Officer. The loss of one or more of these key officers or any other member of our senior management team could have a material adverse effect on us. We may not be able to retain or replace these key personnel, and we may not have adequate succession plans in place. Mr. Mika is subject to employment conditions or arrangements that contain post-employment non-competition provisions. However, these arrangements permit Mr. Mika to terminate his employment with us upon little or no notice and the enforceability of the non-competition provisions is uncertain.

If we are unable to hire, retain and motivate qualified personnel, our business would suffer.

Our future success depends, in part, on our ability to continue to attract and retain highly skilled personnel. The loss of the services of any of our key personnel, the inability to attract or retain qualified personnel or delays in hiring required personnel, particularly in software and biotechnology, may seriously harm our business, financial condition and operating results. Our ability to continue to attract and retain highly skilled personnel will be critical to our future success. Competition for highly skilled personnel is frequently intense, especially in the San Francisco Bay Area. We intend to issue stock options as a key component of our overall compensation and employee attraction and retention efforts. In addition, we are required under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, to recognize compensation expense in our operating results for employee stock-based compensation under our equity grant programs, which may negatively impact our operating results and may increase the pressure to limit share-based compensation. We may not be successful in attracting, assimilating or retaining qualified personnel to fulfill our current or future needs. Also, to the extent we hire personnel from competitors, we may be subject to allegations that they have been improperly solicited or divulged proprietary or other confidential information.

 

The personalized healthcare market is rapidly evolving and difficult to predict. If the personalized healthcare market does not evolve as we anticipate or if healthcare market participants do not perceive value in our products, our sales will not grow as quickly as anticipated and our stock price could decline.

We are in a new, rapidly evolving category within the healthcare industry that focuses on using information technology to inform personalized cancer treatment planning. As such, it is difficult to predict important market trends, including how large the personalized healthcare market will be or when and what products customers will adopt. If the market does not evolve in the way we anticipate, if organizations do not recognize the benefit that our products offer, or if we are unable to sell our products to customers, then our revenue may not grow as expected or may decline, and our stock price could decline.

New or existing technologies that are perceived to address personalized cancer treatment planning in different ways could gain wide adoption and supplant our products, thereby weakening our sales and our financial results.

The introduction of products and services embodying new technologies could render our existing products obsolete or less attractive to customers. Other technologies exist or could be developed in the future, and our business could be materially negatively affected if such technologies are widely adopted. We may not be able to successfully anticipate or adapt to changing technology or customer requirements on a timely basis, or at all. If we fail to keep up with technological changes or to convince our customers and potential customers of the value of our products even in light of new technologies, our business, operating results and financial condition could be materially and adversely affected.

We are dependent on a family of products that informs genomic-based medicine.

Our current product offering is limited to a family of products that informs genomic-based medicine using a unique approach of experts and expert systems.  We expect to derive a substantial portion of our revenue from this approach and the family of products based on this approach for the foreseeable future. A decline in the price of these products, whether due to competition or otherwise, or our inability to increase sales of these products, would harm our business and operating results. We expect that this concentration of revenue from a single product family comprised of a limited number of products will continue for the foreseeable future. As a result, our future growth and financial performance will depend heavily on our ability to develop and sell enhanced versions of our products. If we fail to deliver product enhancements, new releases or new products that customers want, it will be more difficult for us to succeed.

---

If we are unable to introduce new products successfully and to make enhancements to existing products, our growth rates would likely decline and our business, operating results and competitive position could suffer.

 

Our continued success depends on our ability to identify and develop new products and to enhance and improve our existing products, and the acceptance of those products by our existing and target customers. Our growth would likely be adversely affected if:

 

●

we fail to introduce these new products or enhancements;

 

●

we fail to successfully manage the transition to new products from the products they are replacing;

 

●

we do not invest our development efforts in appropriate products or enhancements for markets in which we now compete and expect to compete;

 

●

we fail to predict the demand for new products following their introduction to market; or

 

●

these new products or enhancements do not attain market acceptance.

Any or all of the above problems could materially harm our business and operating results.

If we are unable to increase market awareness of our company and our products, our revenue may not continue to grow, or may decline.

The personalized healthcare market is nascent, and we have not yet established broad market awareness of our products and services. Market awareness of our value proposition and products will be essential to our continued growth and our success, particularly for the advanced stage treatment segment of the personalized cancer treatment market. If our marketing efforts are unsuccessful in creating market awareness of our company and our products, then our business, financial condition and operating results will be adversely affected, and we will not be able to achieve sustained growth.

We compete in highly competitive markets, and competitive pressures from existing and new companies may adversely impact our business and operating results.

The markets in which we compete are highly competitive. We expect competition to intensify in the future as existing competitors bundle new and more competitive offerings with their existing products and services, and as new market entrants introduce new products into our markets. This competition could result in increased pricing pressure, reduced profit margins, increased sales and marketing expenses and our failure to increase, or the loss of, market share, any of which would likely seriously harm our business, operating results and financial condition. If we do not keep pace with product and technology advances and otherwise keep our product offerings competitive, there could be a material and adverse effect on our competitive position, revenue and prospects for growth.

We compete either directly or indirectly with other medical database solution companies.   Some companies that offer competitive products or services are also potential customers.  We do not believe that any of our principal competitors can offer the same scalable interactive expert solutions as CollabRx.  The principal competitive factors in our markets include, key strategic customer relationships, expert technical personnel, marketplace acceptance of our product, among others.

Many of our current and potential competitors are substantially larger and have greater financial, technical, research and development, sales and marketing, manufacturing, distribution and other resources and greater name recognition. We could also face competition from new market entrants, including our joint-development partners or other current technology partners. In addition, many of our existing and potential competitors enjoy substantial competitive advantages, such as:

 

●

longer operating histories;

 

●

the capacity to leverage their sales efforts and marketing expenditures across a broader portfolio of products;

 

●

broader distribution and established relationships with partners;

 

●

access to larger customer bases;

 

●

greater customer support;

 

●

greater resources to make acquisitions;

 

●

larger intellectual property portfolios; and

 

●

the ability to bundle competitive offerings with other products and services.

---

As a result, increased competition could result in loss of existing or new customers, price reductions, reduced operating margins and loss of market share. Our competitors also may be able to provide customers with capabilities or benefits different from or greater than those we can provide in areas such as technical qualifications or geographic presence, or to provide end-user customers a broader range of products, services and prices. In addition, some of our larger potential competitors have substantially broader product offerings and could leverage their relationships based on other products or incorporate functionality into existing products to gain business in a manner that discourages users from purchasing our products, including through selling at zero or negative margins, product bundling or closed technology platforms. These larger potential competitors may also have more extensive relationships within existing and potential customers that provide them with an advantage in competing for business with those customers. Our ability to compete will depend upon our ability to provide a better product than our competitors at a competitive price. We may be required to make substantial investments in research, development, marketing and sales in order to respond to competition, and there is no assurance that these investments will achieve any returns for us or that we will be able to compete successfully in the future.

Our limited operating history in the health care market makes it difficult for you to evaluate our current business and future prospects, and may increase the risk of your investment.

Our Company was formed in December 1989 to acquire the operations of the former Tegal Corporation, a division of Motorola, Inc.  Until recently, our Company designed, manufactured, marketed and serviced specialized plasma etch systems used primarily in the production of micro-electrical mechanical systems devices, such as sensors, accelerometers and power devices.  The Company’s Deep Reactive Ion Etch systems were also employed in certain sophisticated manufacturing techniques, involving 3-D interconnect structures formed by intricate silicon etching. For most of the fiscal year ended March 31, 2011, we also sold systems for the etching and deposition of materials found in other devices, such as integrated circuits and optoelectronic devices found in products such as smart phones, networking gear, solid-state lighting, and digital imaging.  We exited the semiconductor industry through a series of divestitures in 2010 to 2012.  In July 2012, we acquired CollabRx and entered the personalized healthcare market.  CollabRx was founded in 2008 to use information technology to inform personalized medicine.  Our current management has only been working together with our employee base for a short period of time. This limited operating history in the healthcare market makes financial forecasting and evaluation of our business difficult. Furthermore, because we depend in part on the market’s acceptance of our products, it is difficult to evaluate trends that may affect our business. We have encountered and will continue to encounter risks and difficulties frequently experienced by growing companies in rapidly changing industries. If we do not address these risks successfully, our business and operating results would be adversely affected, and our stock will be adversely affected.

We do not sell our products directly to users and rely instead on contractual relationships with key market participants who derive a benefit from offering our products to their users.  Our business development cycles can be long and unpredictable, and our business development efforts require considerable time and expense.

We do not sell our products directly to users.  Instead, we form strategic relationships with existing market participants who derive a benefit from offering our products to their users.  Our business development efforts involve educating our potential business partners about the use and benefits of our products. Such potential business partners are typically large, well-established companies with long evaluation cycles.  We spend substantial time and resources on our business development efforts without any assurance that our efforts will produce any sales. In addition, partnerships are frequently subject to budget constraints, multiple approvals and unplanned administrative, processing and other delays. These factors, among others, could result in long and unpredictable sales cycles. The length of our products’ business development cycles typically range from six to twelve months based on our limited experience, but may be longer as we expand our business development efforts to other segments of the healthcare market. As a result of these lengthy business development time-lines and the uncertain benefit that our partners may derive from offering our products, it is difficult for us to predict when our partners may purchase products from us and as a result, our operating results may vary significantly and may be adversely affected.

Our customers are concentrated and therefore the loss of a significant customer may harm our business.

We generate revenues from a small number of customers.  The loss of any of these customers would significantly impact our operating results in future periods.

We are exposed to risks associated with contract termination or delay

 

 The software products for which we receive revenue are distributed through third-parties under license or contract, with varying terms.  Generally, our agreements with third-parties are subject to termination with notice and/or discretionary termination if certain revenue targets are not achieved.  In addition, our agreements generally do not contain revenue or performance guarantees, so our achieved revenues may vary from targets because of changes in strategic direction of our customers, contract termination, or from delays in projected launch dates, over which we have no influence or control.  The loss or delay of revenues associated with such contracts may harm our business and cause us to suffer further operating losses.

If our security is breached, our business could be disrupted, our operating results could be harmed, and customers could be deterred from using our products and services.

 

 Our business relies on the secure electronic transmission, storage and hosting of information, including published data and proprietary databases.  We face the risk of a deliberate or unintentional incident involving unauthorized access to our computer systems that could result in misappropriation or loss of assets or information, data corruption, or other disruption of business operations.  Although we have devoted significant resources to protecting and maintaining the confidentiality of our information, including implementing security and privacy programs and controls, training our workforce, and implementing new technology, we have no guarantee that these programs and controls will be adequate to prevent all possible security threats. We believe that any compromise of our electronic systems, including the unauthorized access, use, or disclosure of information or a significant disruption of our computing assets and networks, would adversely affect our reputation and our ability to fulfill contractual obligations, and would require us to devote significant financial and other resources to mitigate such problems, and could increase our future cyber security costs.

Defects or errors in our software could harm our reputation, result in significant cost to us and impair our ability to market our products.

 

 The software applications underlying our hosted products and services are inherently complex and may contain defects or errors, some of which may be material. Errors may result from our own technology or from the interface of our software with legacy systems and data, which we did not develop. The risk of errors is particularly significant when a new product is first introduced or when new versions or enhancements of existing products are released. The likelihood of errors is increased as a result of our commitment to frequent release of new products and enhancements of existing products.

 Material defects in our software could result in a reduction in sales and/or delay in market acceptance of our products. In addition, such defects may lead to the loss of existing customers, difficulty in attracting new customers, diversion of development resources or harm to our reputation. Correction of defects or errors could prove to be impossible or impractical. The costs incurred in correcting any defects or errors or in responding to resulting claims or liability may be substantial and could adversely affect our operating results.

If we experience any failure or interruption in the delivery of our services over the Internet, customer satisfaction and our reputation could be harmed and customer contracts may be terminated.

 

 If we experience any failure or interruption in the delivery of our services over the Internet, customer satisfaction and our reputation could be harmed and lead to reduced revenues and increased expenses.

We may expand our business through new acquisitions in the future. Any such acquisitions could disrupt our business, harm our financial condition and dilute current stockholders’ ownership interests in our company.

 

 We may pursue potential acquisitions of, and investments in, businesses, technologies or products complementary to our business and periodically engage in discussions regarding such possible acquisitions. Acquisitions involve numerous risks, including some or all of the following:

●

difficulties in identifying and acquiring complementary products, technologies or businesses;

●

substantial cash expenditures;

●

incurrence of debt and contingent liabilities, some of which we may not identify at the time of acquisition;

 

●

difficulties in assimilating the operations and personnel of the acquired companies;

---

●

diversion of management’s attention away from other business concerns;

●

risk associated with entering markets in which we have limited or no direct experience;

●

potential loss of key employees, customers and strategic alliances from either our current business or the target company’s business; and

 

●

delays in customer purchases due to uncertainty and the inability to maintain relationships with customers of the acquired businesses.

 

 If we fail to properly evaluate acquisitions or investments, we may not achieve the anticipated benefits of such acquisitions, we may incur costs in excess of what we anticipate, and management resources and attention may be diverted from other necessary or valuable activities. An acquisition may not result in short-term or long-term benefits to us. The failure to evaluate and execute acquisitions or investments successfully or otherwise adequately address these risks could materially harm our business and financial results. We may incorrectly judge the value or worth of an acquired company or business. In addition, our future success will depend in part on our ability to manage the growth anticipated with these acquisitions.

 

 Furthermore, the development or expansion of our business or any acquired business or companies may require a substantial capital investment by us. We may not have these necessary funds or they might not be available to us on acceptable terms or at all. We may also seek to raise funds for an acquisition by issuing equity securities or convertible debt, as a result of which our existing stockholders may be diluted or the market price of our stock may be adversely affected.

We may be subject to claims that we or our technologies infringe upon the intellectual property or other proprietary rights of a third party. Any such claims may require us to incur significant costs, to enter into royalty or licensing agreements or to develop or license substitute technology.

 

 We cannot assure you that our software solutions and the technologies used in our product offerings do not infringe patents held by others or that they will not in the future. Any future claim of infringement could cause us to incur substantial costs defending against the claim, even if the claim is without merit, and could distract our management from our business. Moreover, any settlement or adverse judgment resulting from the claim could require us to pay substantial amounts or obtain a license to continue to use the technology that is the subject of the claim, or otherwise restrict or prohibit our use of the technology. Any required licenses may not be available to us on acceptable terms, if at all. If we do not obtain any required licenses, we could encounter delays in product introductions if we attempt to design around the technology at issue or attempt to find another provider of suitable alternative technology to permit us to continue offering the applicable software solution. In addition, we generally provide in our customer agreements that we will indemnify our customers against third-party infringement claims relating to our technology provided to the customer, which could obligate us to fund significant amounts. Infringement claims asserted against us or against our customers or other third parties that we are required or otherwise agree to indemnify may have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition.

We may be unable to adequately enforce or defend our ownership and use of our intellectual property and other proprietary rights.

 

 Our success is heavily dependent upon our intellectual property and other proprietary rights. We rely upon a combination of trademark, trade secret, copyright, patent and unfair competition laws, as well as license and access agreements and other contractual provisions, to protect our intellectual property and other proprietary rights. In addition, we attempt to protect our intellectual property and proprietary information by requiring certain of our employees and consultants to enter into confidentiality, non-competition and assignment of inventions agreements. The steps we take to protect these rights may not be adequate to prevent misappropriation of our technology by third parties or may not be adequate under the laws of some foreign countries, which may not protect our intellectual property rights to the same extent as do the laws of the United States.

 

 Our attempts to protect our intellectual property may be challenged by others or invalidated through administrative process or litigation, and agreement terms that address non-competition are difficult to enforce in many jurisdictions and may not be enforceable in any particular case. Moreover, the degree of future protection of our intellectual property and proprietary rights is uncertain for products that are currently in the early stages of development because we cannot predict which of these products will ultimately reach the commercial market or whether the commercial versions of these products will incorporate proprietary technologies. In addition, there remains the possibility that others will “reverse engineer” our products in order to determine their method of operation and introduce competing products or that others will develop competing technology independently.

---

 If we resort to legal proceedings to enforce our intellectual property rights or to determine the validity and scope of the intellectual property or other proprietary rights of others, the proceedings could be burdensome and expensive, even if we were to prevail. The failure to adequately protect our intellectual property and other proprietary rights may have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition.

Extensive governmental regulation could require significant compliance costs and have a material adverse effect on the demand for our products.

 

 We do not believe that any of our current or planned products are subject to regulation by the United States Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”) and other regulatory authorities worldwide.  However, our business could be adversely affected by any increased regulation of our customers.  Changes in the level of regulation, including an increase in regulatory requirements, could subject us to regulatory approvals and delays in launching our products or result in a decrease in demand for our products. Modifying our products to comply with changes in regulations or regulatory guidance could require us to incur substantial costs. Further, changing regulatory requirements may render our products obsolete or make new products or product enhancements more costly or time consuming than we currently anticipate. Failure by us or our customers to comply with applicable regulations could result in increased regulatory scrutiny and enforcement. If our products fail to comply with government regulations or guidelines, we could incur significant liability or be forced to cease offering our applicable products or services.

If any of our products are deemed to be Medical Devices, then complying with medical device regulations on a global scale will be time consuming and expensive, and could subject us to unanticipated and significant delays.

 

 Although the FDA has not determined that any of our products are medical devices that are actively regulated under the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act and amendments thereto (collectively, the “Act”), the FDA may do so in the future.  Other countries have regulations in place related to medical devices that may in the future apply to certain of our products. If any of our products are deemed to be actively regulated medical devices by the FDA or similar regulatory agencies in countries where we do business, we could be subject to extensive requirements governing pre- and post-marketing activities, including pre-market notification clearance. Complying with medical device regulations would be time consuming and expensive, and could result in unanticipated and significant delays in the release of new products or product enhancements. Further, it is possible that these regulatory agencies may become more active in regulating software and medical devices that are used in healthcare. If we are unable to obtain the required regulatory approvals for any such products, our business plans for these products could be delayed or canceled.

The laws governing electronic health data transmissions continue to evolve and are often unclear and difficult to apply.  If we or our customers do not maintain the security and privacy of patient records, we may become subject to sanctions by various government entities.

 

 Federal, state, local and foreign laws regulate the confidentiality of patient records and the circumstances under which those records may be released. These regulations govern both the disclosure and use of confidential patient medical record information and require the users of such information to implement specified security and privacy measures. United States regulations currently in place governing electronic health data transmissions continue to evolve and are often unclear and difficult to apply. Laws in non-U.S. jurisdictions may have similar or even stricter requirements related to the treatment of patient information.

 

 In the United States, the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (“HIPAA”) regulations require national standards for some types of electronic health information transactions and the data elements used in those transactions, security standards to ensure the integrity and confidentiality of health information and standards to protect the privacy of individually identifiable health information. Covered entities under HIPAA, which include health care organizations such as our customers, are required to comply with the privacy standards, the transaction regulations and the security regulations. Moreover, the recently enacted Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health (“HITECH”) provisions of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, and associated regulatory requirements, extend many of the HIPAA obligations, formerly imposed only upon covered entities, to business associates as well, which has created additional liability risks related to the privacy and security of individually identifiable health information.

 

 Evolving HIPAA and HITECH-related laws or regulations in the U.S. and data privacy and security laws or regulations in non-U.S. jurisdictions could restrict the ability of our clients to obtain, use or disseminate patient information. This could adversely affect demand for our products if they are not re-designed in a timely manner in order to meet the requirements of any new interpretations or regulations that seek to protect the privacy and security of patient data or enable our clients to execute new or modified health care transactions. We may need to expend additional capital, software development and other resources to modify our products to address these evolving data security and privacy issues.

If commercial third-party payers or government payers fail to provide coverage or adequate reimbursement for certain genomic tests offered by our customers, or if there is a decrease in the amount of reimbursement for our customers’ products or future products they develop, our revenue and prospects for profitability may be harmed.

 

 In both domestic and foreign markets, sales by our customers may depend, in large part, upon the availability of reimbursement from third-party payers. These third-party payers include government healthcare programs such as Medicare, managed care providers, private health insurers, and other organizations.  Physicians and patients may not order genomic test services or products from our customers unless commercial third-party payers and government payers pay for all, or a substantial portion, of the list price, and certain commercial third-party payers may not agree to reimburse our customers if Centers for Medicaid and Medicare Services (“CMS”) does not issue a positive coverage decision.  There is currently no national coverage decision that determines whether and how certain genomic tests are covered by Medicare. In the absence of a national coverage decision, local Medicare contractors that administer the Medicare program in various regions have some discretion in determining coverage and therefore payment for such tests.  Accordingly, if our customers do not receive full or partial reimbursement for their tests, our revenue and results of operations could be adversely affected.

 

 In addition, there is significant uncertainty surrounding whether the use of products that incorporate new technology, such as Next Generation Sequencing (“NGS”)-based tests, for which we provide interpretative analysis, will be eligible for coverage by commercial third-party payers and government payers or, if eligible for coverage, what the reimbursement rates will be for those products. The fact that a diagnostic product has been approved for reimbursement in the past, for any particular indication or in any particular jurisdiction, does not guarantee that such a diagnostic product will remain approved for reimbursement or that similar or additional diagnostic products will be approved in the future. Reimbursement of NGS-based cancer products by commercial third party payers and government payers may depend on a number of factors, including a payor’s determination that products enabled by our molecular information platform are:

·

not experimental or investigational;

·

medically necessary;

·

appropriate for the specific patient;

·

cost-effective;

·

supported by peer-reviewed publications;

·

included in clinical practice guidelines; and

·

supported by clinical utility studies.

 

 The United States and foreign governments continue to propose and pass legislation designed to reduce the cost of healthcare. For example, in some foreign markets, the government controls the pricing of many healthcare products. We expect that there will continue to be federal and state proposals to implement governmental controls or impose healthcare requirements. In addition, the Medicare program and increasing emphasis on managed care in the United States will continue to put pressure on product pricing. Cost control initiatives could decrease the price that our customers would receive for any products in the future, which may limit our revenue and profitability.

The price of our common stock may fluctuate significantly, and you could lose all or part of your investment.

The closing price of our common stock on The NASDAQ Capital Market has ranged from a high as $5.23 to a low of $1.86 from July 12, 2012, the closing date of our acquisition of CollabRx, through June 30, 2014. The trading price of our common stock may be subject to wide fluctuations in response to various factors, some of which are beyond our control, including:

·

our quarterly or annual earnings or those of other companies in our industry;

·

announcements by us or our competitors of significant contracts or acquisitions;

 

·

changes in accounting standards, policies, guidance, interpretations or principles;

---

·

general economic and stock market conditions, including disruptions in the world credit and equity markets;

·

the failure of securities analysts to cover our common stock;

·

future sales of our common stock; and

·

the other factors described in these “Risk Factors.”

 

 In recent years, the stock market in general has experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations. This volatility has had a significant impact on the market price of securities issued by many companies, including companies in our industry. The price of our common stock could fluctuate based upon factors that have little to do with our performance, and these fluctuations could materially reduce our stock price.

 

 In the past, some companies, including companies in our industry, have had volatile market prices for their securities and have had securities class action suits filed against them. The filing of a lawsuit against us, regardless of the outcome, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations, as it could result in substantial legal costs and a diversion of our management’s attention and resources.

Our actual operating results may differ significantly from guidance provided by our management.

 

 Although it has not been our practice in the recent past to do so, we may from time to time release guidance in our quarterly earnings releases, quarterly earnings conference call, or otherwise, regarding our future performance that represent our management’s estimates as of the date of release. This guidance, which includes forward-looking statements, is based on projections prepared by our management. These projections are not prepared with a view toward compliance with published guidelines of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, and neither our registered public accountants nor any other independent expert or outside party compiles or examines the projections and, accordingly, no such person expresses any opinion or any other form of assurance with respect thereto.

 

 Projections are based upon a number of assumptions and estimates that, while presented with numerical specificity, are inherently subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond our control and are based upon specific assumptions with respect to future business decisions, some of which will change. We generally state possible outcomes as high and low ranges which are intended to provide a sensitivity analysis as variables are changed but are not intended to represent that actual results could not fall outside of the suggested ranges. The principal reason that we release guidance is to provide a basis for our management to discuss our business outlook with analysts and investors. We do not accept any responsibility for any projections or reports that may be published by analysts.

 

 Guidance is necessarily speculative in nature, and it can be expected that some or all of the assumptions of the guidance furnished by us will not materialize or will vary significantly from actual results. Accordingly, our guidance is only an estimate of what management believes is realizable as of the date of release. Actual results will vary from our guidance and the variations may be material. In light of the foregoing, investors are urged not to rely upon, or otherwise consider, our guidance in making an investment decision in respect of our common stock. Any failure to successfully implement our operating strategy could result in the actual operating results being different from our guidance, and such differences may be adverse and material.

Provisions of Delaware law and our organizational documents may discourage takeovers and business combinations that our stockholders may consider in their best interests, which could negatively affect our stock price.

     Provisions of Delaware law and our certificate of incorporation and bylaws may have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control of our company or deterring tender offers for our common stock that other stockholders may consider in their best interests. In addition, our board of directors has adopted a shareholder rights plan, or “poison pill,” which has the effect of making it more difficult for a person to acquire control of our company in a transaction not approved by our board of directors.

 

 Our certificate of incorporation authorizes us to issue up to 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock in one or more different series with terms to be fixed by our board of directors. Stockholder approval is not necessary to issue preferred stock in this manner. Issuance of these shares of preferred stock could have the effect of making it more difficult and more expensive for a person or group to acquire control of us, and could effectively be used as an anti-takeover device. Currently there are no shares of our preferred stock issued or outstanding.

---

 Our bylaws provide for an advance notice procedure for stockholders to nominate director candidates for election or to bring business before an annual meeting of stockholders, including proposed nominations of persons for election to our board of directors, and require that special meetings of stockholders be called only by our chairman of the board, chief executive officer, president or the board pursuant to a resolution adopted by a majority of the board.

 

 The anti-takeover provisions of Delaware law and provisions in our organizational documents may prevent our stockholders from receiving the benefit from any premium to the market price of our common stock offered by a bidder in a takeover context. Even in the absence of a takeover attempt, the existence of these provisions may adversely affect the prevailing market price of our common stock if they are viewed as discouraging takeover attempts in the future.

As a public company, we incur significant administrative workload and expenses.

 

 As a public company with common stock listed on The NASDAQ Capital Market, we must comply with various laws, regulations and requirements, including certain provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as well as rules implemented by the SEC and The NASDAQ Stock Market. Complying with these statutes, regulations and requirements, including our public company reporting requirements, continues to occupy a significant amount of the time of our board of directors and management and involves significant accounting, legal and other expenses. We have hired, and anticipate that we will continue to hire, additional accounting personnel to handle these responsibilities, which will increase our operating costs. Furthermore, these laws, regulations and requirements could make it more difficult or more costly for us to obtain certain types of insurance, including director and officer liability insurance, and we may be forced to accept reduced policy limits and coverage or incur substantially higher costs to obtain the same or similar coverage. The impact of these requirements could also make it more difficult for us to attract and retain qualified persons to serve on our board of directors, our board committees or as executive officers.

 

 New laws and regulations as well as changes to existing laws and regulations affecting public companies, including the provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and rules adopted by the SEC and by The NASDAQ Stock Market, would likely result in increased costs to us as we respond to their requirements. We are investing resources to comply with evolving laws and regulations, and this investment may result in increased general and administrative expenses and a diversion of management’s time and attention from revenue-generating activities to compliance activities.

We do not currently intend to pay dividends on our common stock and, consequently, your ability to achieve a return on your investment will depend on appreciation in the price of our common stock.

 

 We have never declared or paid any cash dividends on our common stock and do not currently intend to do so for the foreseeable future. We currently intend to invest our future earnings, if any, to fund our growth. Therefore, you are not likely to receive any dividends on your investment in our common stock for the foreseeable future and the success of an investment in shares of our common stock will depend upon any future appreciation in its value. Shares of our common stock may depreciate in value or may not appreciate in value.

The concentration of ownership among our existing directors, executive officers and principal stockholders provide them, collectively, with substantial control over us, which could limit your ability to influence the outcome of key transactions, including a change of control.

 

 Our directors, executive officers and each of our stockholders who own greater than 5% of our outstanding common stock and their affiliates, in the aggregate, own approximately 11% of the outstanding shares of our common stock, based on the number of shares outstanding as of June 30, 2014. As a result, these stockholders, if acting together, will be able to influence or control matters requiring approval by our stockholders, including the election of directors and the approval of mergers, acquisitions or other extraordinary transactions. They may also have interests that differ from yours and may vote in a way with which you disagree and which may be adverse to your interests. This concentration of ownership may have the effect of delaying, preventing or deterring a change of control of our company, could deprive our stockholders of an opportunity to receive a premium for their common stock as part of a sale of our company and might ultimately affect the market price of our common stock.
