PART I
 
Business.
 
We are a Delaware corporation that was formed on January 31, 2002. On March 14, 2013, we changed our corporate name from Lapis Technologies, Inc. to Micronet Enertec Technologies, Inc. On April 29, 2013 the Company closed an underwritten public offering of 1,620,000 shares of common stock with additional 243,000 shares of common stock as over allotment rights granted to the underwriter, and warrants to purchase 931,500 shares of common stock (including 121,500 over allotment warrants), at an offering price of $5.00 per share and $0.01 per warrant. The warrants have a per share exercise price of $6.25, are exercisable immediately, and expire April 23, 2018. The Company's shares have been traded on NASDAQ as of April 29, 2013.
 
We operate through two Israeli-based companies, Enertec Systems 2001 Ltd, or Enertec, our wholly-owned subsidiary, and Micronet Ltd, or Micronet, in which we have a controlling interest, which develop, manufacture, integrate and globally market rugged computers, tablets and computer-based systems and instruments for the commercial, defense and aerospace markets. Our products, solutions and services are designed to perform in severe environments and battlefield conditions.
 
Micronet operates in the growing commercial Mobile Resource Management, or MRM market. Micronet designs, develops, manufactures and sells rugged mobile computing devices that provide fleet operators and field workforces with computing solutions in challenging work environments. Micronet’s vehicle cabin installed and portable tablets are design to increase workforce productivity, enhance corporate efficiency and customer service by offering computing power and communication capabilities. The Micronet products provide fleet operators  with visibility into vehicle location, fuel usage, speed and mileage and allow the installation of software applications and communication integration enabling the users to manage the drivers in various aspects such as: driver identification, hours working report, customer/organization working procedures and protocols, rout management and navigation based on tasks and time schedule. End user may also receive real time messages for various services such as pickup and delivery, repair and maintenance, status reports, alerts, notices relating to start and ending of work, digital forms, issuing and printing of invoices and payments.
 
Micronet’s customers consist primarily of Application Service Providers (ASPs) and Solution providers specializing in the MRM market. These companies sell Micronet’s products as part of their MRM systems and solutions. Currently, Micronet does not sell directly to end-users. Micronet customers are generally MRM solution and service providers, such as Trimble Navigation Limited, or Trimble through its subsidiaries PeopleNet Communications Corp. ("PeopleNet"), , Trimble constructions and Trimble field services. Micronet products are used by customers in 20 countries. The United States currently constitutes its largest market, representing approximately 88% and 92% of revenue for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. For the year ended December 31, 2013, Micronet’s largest customer was Trimble (including PeopleNet), which represented approximately 82.5% of Micronet's Ltd revenues and 56% of the company's revenues. The next largest customer represented approximately 3.4% of Micronet's Ltd revenues. For the year ended December 31, 2012, Trimble and PeopleNet combined (as a result of the acquisition of PeopleNet by Trimble) represented approximately 79% of Micronet’s revenues and 27% of the company's revenues. In the year ended December 31, 2012 no other customer accounted for more than 8% of Micronet’s revenue.
 
We acquired control of Micronet in September 2012. Currently, we own 52.26% of Micronet and 52% on a fully diluted basis. These holdings are the result of certain additional purchases of Micronet shares and issuance of shares by Micronet to third parties occurred between  September 2012 and the  date hereof as follows: 996,000 Micronet shares constituting approximately 5.5% of Micronet purchased from the Micronet previous controlling shareholders in consideration for a total of approximately USD 600,000; Additional 600,000 Micronet shares constituting approximately 3% of Micronet purchased in August  2013 from Micronet former Chairman of the board in consideration for a total of approximately USD 660,000; Also Our Micronet holdings were diluted due to the exercise by Micronet's former Chairman of the Board and its current CEO of 1,470,401 options into 1,470,401 shares. As of the date hereof, Micronet’s other executives currently hold 95,000 options exercisable for 95,000 ordinary shares which constitute approximately 0.5% of Micronet’s outstanding ordinary shares. These options are “in the money”, meaning the exercise price is less than the current Micronet share market price

Pursuant to our current strategy and business plans, it is our intention to control at least a majority of the outstanding Micronet ordinary shares.
 
Enertec operates in the Defense and Aerospace markets and designs, develops, manufactures and supplies various customized military computer-based systems, simulators, automatic test equipment and electronic instruments. Enertec’s solutions and systems are designed according to major aerospace integrators’ requirements and market technological needs and are integrated by them into critical systems such as command and control, missile fire control, maintenance of military aircraft and missiles for use by the Israeli Air Force, Israeli Navy and by foreign defense entities. Approximately 74% and 78% of our revenues for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, were from independent business units or groups within Israeli Aerospace Industries Ltd., or IAI, the leading Israeli defense system integrator and approximately 19% and 11%, respectively, were from business units of Rafael Advanced Defense Systems Ltd., or Rafael, another Israeli state-owned major defense developer and integrator of critical weapon systems. These distinct units and groups create diversity to our business and revenue streams. The system integrators that are our primary customers market their solutions throughout the world and across the full spectrum of military applications (land, sea and air). Command and control systems represented approximately 67% and 75% of Enertec’s revenues for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively and our automated test equipment represented approximately 33% and 22% of Enertec’s revenues for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.
 
Management believes that the demand for our products, systems and solutions is not affected significantly by fluctuations in any particular geographic market outside the State of Israel because our products, systems and solutions can be tailored to fit the needs of these different disciplines and are not limited to any specific geography.
 
In order to expend our potential markets and sell into the growing Indian defense market, in 2011 we entered into an agreement for the establishment of a new joint venture with Amtek Defense Technologies Limited, or Amtek, a leading Indian industrial group, to market, manufacture and sell systems and solutions in India based on Enertec’s technological and engineering capabilities. Since the entering into the joint venture agreement, in view of certain local Indian regulatory approvals required for the operation of the joint venture entity and the distribution of equity shares, both of them were delayed, Amtek  incorporated and operated the joint venture entity.
 
In May 2013, Amertec Systems Pvt Ltd, or Amertec, the Indian company formed pursuant to the agreement with Amtek received the Indian government authorities’ clearance and approval pursuant to the local Indian Foreign Direct Investment regulations for the consummation of their joint venture transaction. This approval enables the Company via its wholly-owned subsidiary, Enertec Electronics Ltd., to subscribe for 26% of the share capital of Amertec. The allocation of the 26% is yet been completed. However, although we believe that a joint venture is the correct platform to sell to the Indian market, due to the elapse of time and since the development of the business is slower than expected, in view of certain changes in local business trends and specific changes in Amtek position, we are currently re-evaluating our position in the joint venture and in the Indian market.
 
Our overall strategy focuses on continued internal growth through diligent efforts in our traditional growing markets with new technologies and innovative systems and products, as well as the development of new potential segments and markets. To enhance our growth, we also look for appropriate acquisitions to complement and expand our offerings, as well as support our goals and increase our competitive strengths. We concentrate the majority of our resources, including our marketing and sales efforts, in the United States, Israeli and European markets. Currently we do not hold any equity of Amertec.
 
Subsidiaries
 
We have three subsidiaries and a controlling interest in Micronet.  We are the sole owner of Enertec Electronics Ltd., an Israeli corporation, or Enertec Electronics, which is, since 2010, a holding company.
 
 
4

 
 
Via Enertec Electronics, directly and indirectly, we are the holder of our current subsidiaries which operate the following businesses:
 
 
·
Enertec, which operates in the Defense and Aerospace markets and designs, develops, manufactures and supplies various customized military computer-based systems, simulators, automatic test equipment and electronic instruments. In March 2011 Enertec became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Enertec Management Ltd., a private Israeli company wholly owned by Enertec Electronics.
 
 
·
Micronet, an Israel-based manufacturer and developer of rugged computers, tablets and computer based systems whose shares are traded on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange, or TASE, in which we acquired a controlling interest in September 2012 through Enertec Electronics. We currently own 52.26% of Micronet's outstanding common shares  and 52% on a fully diluted basis.
 
Enertec
 
Enertec designs, develops and manufactures computer based instruments and aerospace electronic solutions designed to operate in severe environments and battlefield conditions, primarily for military use in air, space land and sea. Enertec’s products are grouped into three material product lines: computer-based command and control systems, automatic test equipment and power supplies. These product lines generate approximately 90% of Enertec’s annual revenues. The command and control systems are integrated in mission critical air defense missiles and other weapon systems and are designed to operate in severe environments. The automatic test equipment line includes a variety of test systems and simulators that test and assure combat readiness of aircraft and missiles. The power supplies are uniquely designed to support our systems and are also supporting our customers as stand-alone solutions. Enertec’s solutions and systems are tailored to customers’ specifications and are, or are integrated into, critical weapon systems. Among our main solutions are:
 
 
·
ruggedized portable command and control systems
 
 
·
command and control stations
 
 
·
fire control systems for missiles
 
 
·
military aircraft support systems
 
 
·
missile simulators
 
Enertec holds high security clearance in Israel for the most sensitive defense programs. Our solutions and systems are marketed mainly by the leading Israeli defense industries (system integrators) are used by the Israeli defense forces specifically by the Israeli Air Force and Israeli Navy as well as by other foreign defense entities served by our customers.
 
Enertec’s quality control systems are ISO9000:2008 compliant. ISO9000:2008 is the international standard for quality assurance and quality design. This standard is important to customers that order custom-made products and is made up of a combination of quality system requirements.
 
Enertec generates revenue mostly through funded development, which involves the development of a small number of products, systems or solutions for evaluation. Thereafter we anticipate moving to production phase and generating revenue through direct sales from the mass production of its developed product. Enertec generates additional revenue from the customization and upgrades to its products.
 
New products
 
In addition to our traditional systems and products, we have been developing new systems, solutions and products in the following areas: (i) operationally resilient computers integrated into various weapon systems, (ii) missile launch platforms, (iii) command and control systems, and (iv) missiles communications systems. These systems utilize advanced know-how developed by Enertec’s trained and highly-skilled technical personnel. Management believes that Enertec’s know-how and expertise will enable us to further increase our offerings to existing and other customers’ strategic projects in space land, air and sea. In November 2013 we announced that Enertec was awarded by a multibillion Israel-based defense contractor working in partnership with a major US contractor in the international marketing of a state of the art missile defense system with a total of $2.6 million valued order for the development and initial production of a computer-based test, diagnosis and simulation system to support the newest version of an advanced missile defense system.

Market conditions
 
The defense market, in which we operate through Enertec, includes the design and manufacturing of electronic systems developed to enhance large-scale military land, airborne and seaborne tactical platforms. These systems include military computer based systems, simulators, automatic test equipment and electronic instruments that are used or integrated in critical weapon systems such as command and control systems, missile fire control systems, support military aircraft systems and other defense systems and equipment such as night visions systems, unmanned aerial vehicle, or UAV, systems, laser products, airborne photography measures, processing and display of data systems and communications systems. In the Israeli defense market, Israeli providers supply a significant portion of their products to the Israeli defense forces specifically in view of the continuing defense needs of the State of Israel. However, the Israeli defense industry is also a well-respected exporter of its products to armies and defense forces worldwide and such international markets provide for stable demand for military and defense  products. We expect a continuing demand in the missile defense niche based on the increasing threats of missile attacks throughout the world. We believe that we are well positioned with our unique know-how and expertise in missile technologies, and expect this segment of the market to be a major contributor to our growth and success in the coming years
 
Marketing strategies
 
Our sales and marketing efforts focus on developing new business opportunities as well as generating follow-on sales from our existing customers. Our sales efforts are generated primarily through our internal sales team, although we also retain third-party selling agents from time to time. Various members of our senior management also serve as effective sales representatives who contribute to the generation of military and corporate business due to their long-standing customer relationships with leading industry integrators and knowledge of our customers’ mission-critical technologies, requirements and needed solutions. We continue to explore various Israeli and international business partnerships to increase our sales and market penetration. We actively participate in trade shows involving technology and electronics defense operations.  Additionally, our business development efforts include our website, preparation and distribution of marketing materials, advertising directed toward the defense and homeland security market and product demonstrations.
 
Our strategy is to anticipate the needs of our clients, the relevant market niches, to make investments in research and development (including developing know how, capable manpower) and initiate the development of those products and solutions that we believe will meet the market and customers'  needs best. By doing so, we shorten our time to market, improve our market position from technology perspective, and gain an edge on our competition. Furthermore, we have been able to identify those current and potential clients that we believe are likely to place large orders, and we focus our attention on developing our relationship with them. When successful, we are in an excellent position to offer both basic and advanced, sophisticated products enabling us to expand our relationship with these clients and resulting in additional revenue streams. In these cases, deepening our relationship with our clients creates the opportunity to incorporate our solutions into our customers’ core components and critical systems. By continuously diversifying into new and more complex products and fully scaled systems, we have been able to set Enertec apart from its competition. We also continue to increase our suite of custom products based on our proprietary designs and technologies. These products are core components of several long-term military programs spearheaded by our customers, which historically have expected purchase lifecycles over periods of up to 10 years.
 
Since we expect a continuing demand for our products and solutions in the missile defense niche based on the increasing threats of missile attacks throughout the world we continue to concentrate marketing efforts in this segment of the market while we are well positioned with our unique know-how and expertise in missile technologies. We expect this segment to be a major contributor to our growth and success in the coming years.
 
As part of our strategy to become a global solution provider, Enertec is in the final process of becoming a certified supplier for the US DOD and for the NATO countries and initiated  significant direct marketing efforts to the major US defense organizations.

Customers
 
Enertec’s customers are primarily leading Israeli defense system integrators. The system integrators’ customers are the Israeli Ministry of Defense and other ministries of defense worldwide. The balance of our sales is made directly to the Israeli defense and armed forces (mainly the IDF) that place direct orders.
 
Approximately 90% of our annual revenues in the past two years were from independent business units or groups within Rafael and the IAI, the two leading Israeli defense system integrators. These distinct units and group create diversity to our business and revenue streams.
 
The system integrators that are our primary customers market their solutions throughout the world and across the full spectrum of military applications (land, sea and air). Management believes that the demand for our products, systems and solutions is not affected significantly by fluctuations in any particular geographic market outside the State of Israel because our products, systems and solutions can be tailored to fit the needs of these different disciplines and are not limited to any specific geography.
 
Backlog
 
As of December 31, 2013, Enertec had a backlog of orders for our systems, products and services in the amount of approximately $10.7 million (including $2.3 million in framework orders, which are orders that can be exercised from time to time but are an obligation of ours for the entire amount). As of December 31, 2012, Enertec had a backlog of orders for our systems, products and services in the amount of approximately $10.1 million (including $0.6 million in framework orders).
 
Competition
 
The defense market in which we operate through Enertec is fractured and our main competition comes from customers’ internal development and manufacturing divisions and a number of relatively small Israeli companies that specialize in electronic systems.
 
Suppliers
 
Our suppliers are diversified, and we are not dependent upon a limited number of suppliers for essential raw materials, components, services or other items. In order for us to maintain the standards required by our customers, we require that our suppliers be well-established, with facilities and manufacturing abilities that comply with our relevant standards. Although we are not dependent on any one supplier, disruptions in normal business arrangements due to the loss of one or a few suppliers could adversely affect us. Disruptions also may be experienced if our existing suppliers are no longer able to meet our requirements or if there is an industry shortage of electronic or mechanical components. Not only could these disruptions limit our production capacity, but also, if there is a shortage of components, such disruption could result in higher costs. The raw materials we use are either electronic components purchased from suppliers, or mechanical components primarily manufactured by local subcontractors.
 
Employees
 
As of December 31, 2013, we had approximately 87 full-time employees at Enertec. Of these employees, 73 are employed in engineering and manufacturing positions, and the remainder are employed in sales, management and administrative positions. Our employees are not represented by any collective bargaining agreement, and we have never experienced a work stoppage. We believe we have good relations with our employees.
 
Israeli labor laws and regulations apply to all employees based in Israel. The laws principally covers  matters such as paid vacation, paid sick days, length of the workday, payment for overtime and severance payments upon the retirement or death of an employee or termination of employment under specified circumstances. The severance payments may be funded, in whole or in part, through a managers’ insurance fund or a pension fund. The payments to the managers’ insurance fund or pension fund toward severance amount to 8.3% of wages. Furthermore, Israeli employees and employers are required to pay predetermined sums to the National Insurance Institute of Israel. Since January 1, 1995, these amounts also include payments for health insurance. The payments to the National Insurance Institute amount to approximately 14.5% of wages, of which the employee contributes 66% and the employer contributes 34%.

Research and development expenditures
 
Research and development costs totaled approximately $419,000 and $218,000 for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, which equates to approximately 4% and 2% of Enertec's revenues respectively. These expenditures have adequately satisfied our research and development requirements. We are using our engineering resources to research and design new technologies, products and solutions that we expect to implement into the new projects and large military programs of our core customers.
 
Seasonal aspects of our business
 
The sales of military products and solutions experience seasonal variations because the Israeli Ministry of Defense frequently delays project approvals until near the end of the fiscal year. Therefore, new orders to the military suppliers, including Enertec, are delayed until the second half of the year. In addition, some of our customers require increased deliveries during the last weeks of the year in order to fulfill contractual delivery obligations to their own customers. As a result, we often experience an increase in our fourth quarter sales relative to sales in other quarters.
 
Intellectual property
 
Although we are not dependent on patents or trademark protection with regard to Enertec’s business and do not expect to be at any time in the future, proprietary rights are important to Enertec’s business because its ability to remain competitive in the market is dependent to a significant degree on its proprietary solutions and the technologies on which they are based. Enertec develops systems for its clients on a “work for hire” basis. Although, Enertec does not claim any rights in the products or services that it provides, its proprietary modules and subsystems play an integral and significant part in the development of the products and services that it ultimately delivers. To protect its proprietary rights in these modules and subsystems, Enertec primarily relies on a combination of copyright and trade secret laws, internal know-how, technological innovations and agreements with third parties, such as license agreements. In addition, Enertec employs internal controls such as the use of confidentiality and non-disclosure agreements. Enertec believes its proprietary technology incorporates processes, know-how, methods, algorithms, hardware and software that are the result of more than ten years of experience resulting in in-house expertise and thus are not easily copied. Further, most of the production process is performed in-house with the exception of certain components that are manufactured by subcontractors. This limited outsourcing process allows Enertec to maintain the majority of its proprietary information and know-how within the company and lowers its exposure to the risk of its technology solutions being copied or used by any third parties.
 
Enertec’s management, together with its research and development team, closely and continuously monitors the technological developments in the market. Enertec considers and evaluates on an ad hoc basis whether technology and proprietary assets should be acquired through independent in-house development or through the purchase of patent or other technology licenses.
 
Regulation
 
Enertec’s electronic products must comply with the UL standards of the United States and CE standards of Europe to be eligible for sale in the respective countries subject to these standards. Each system must be tested, qualified and labeled under the relevant standards. This is a complicated and expensive process and once completed, the approved product may not be altered for sale.
 
Micronet
 
Micronet is based in Azor, Israel, near Tel Aviv and is engaged in the design, development, manufacture and global marketing of rugged, automotive-grade, mobile computing devices for fleet and workforce management solutions with computing solutions in challenging work environments. Micronet operates in the MRM market. Micronet designs, develops, manufactures and sells rugged mobile computing devices that provide fleet operators and field workforces with computing solutions in challenging work environments. Micronet’s vehicle cabin installed and portable tablets are design to increase workforce productivity, enhance corporate efficiency and customer service by offering computing power and communication capabilities. The Micronet products provide fleet operators among other with visibility into vehicle location, fuel usage, speed and mileage and allow the installation of software applications and communication integration enabling the users to manage the drivers in various aspects such as: driver identification, hours working report, customer/organization working procedures and protocols, rout management and navigation based on tasks and time schedule. End user may also receive real time messages for various services such as pickup and delivery, repair and maintenance, status reports, alerts, notices relating to start and ending of work, digital forms, issuing and printing of invoices and payments.

Micronet products are used by customers in 20 countries. Micronet’s main target markets are currently the U.S. and European markets. The United States currently constitutes its largest market, representing approximately 88% of Micronet’s revenue for the year ended December 31, 2013 and 92% for the year ended December 31, 2012. In any given year, a single customer may account for a significant portion of Micronet’s revenues. For the year ended December 31, 2013, Trimble and PeopleNet (as a result of the acquisition of PeopleNet by Trimble) represented approximately 82.5% of Micronet’s revenue. No other customer accounted for more than 9% of Micronet’s revenue. For the year ended December 31, 2012, Micronet’s largest customer, Trimble and PeopleNet, located in the United States, represented approximately 79% of its revenues. The next largest customer represented approximately 8% of its revenues.
 
In September 2011, Micronet signed an exclusive distribution agreement with a United Kingdom distributor for the marketing of its systems to the European market. The objective of this relationship is to expand and continue penetration into the European market. Micronet’s products are sold under the exclusive distribution agreement by way of direct sales to customers referred by the distributor in exchange for a commission payable to the distributor.
 
As of December 31, 2013, in addition to its European distributor as described above, Micronet established a sales team composed of three sales managers who work closely with Micronet’s customers on adapting its new upcoming products to customers’ expectations and needs.
 
Research and Development
 
Micronet believes that one of its core competitive strengths is the breadth of its expertise in mobile data technologies, particularly in MRM technologies for the management of vehicle fleets and mobile workforces. Micronet has developed this expertise over a period of 30 years. It has an experienced engineering and product development team. In order to keep up with the rapid technology evolution and the changing needs of the markets in which it operates, Micronet intends to enhance its existing products and to develop new products, by continuing to make significant investments in research and development.
 
Micronet upgrades and enhances its existing products on an on-going basis, including based on input from its clients and partners and from other sources. Enhancements include the addition of capabilities, improvement of product functionality and performance, and adding features to the existing hardware in order to offer customers a variety of solutions. Micronet is in the pre-release phase of the CE300 series, a new, improved model of the CE500 series that is intended to provide its customers with enhanced features and capabilities, optimized for their specific requirements, at a lower cost.
 
Micronet seeks to design and manage product life cycles through a controlled and structured process. It involves customers and industry experts from its target markets in the definition and refinement of its product development. Product development emphasis is placed on meeting industry standards, ease of integration, cost reduction, design-for manufacturability, versatility and innovation, and quality and reliability.
 
During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, Micronet spent NIS 8.6 million (approximately $2.3 million) and NIS 6.2 million (approximately $1.6 million), respectively, on research and development activities. Micronet uses its own resources to finances its research and development activities and none of the cost of such activities is borne by its customers.
 
In April 2013, Micronet Ltd submitted to the Israeli Office of the Chief Scientist (OCS) request for financial support within a framework of a research and development program for a new product. In September 2013, a funding for Micronet in a total amount of 5.5 million NIS (approximately $ 1,571,000) was approved by the OCS. The funding is provided by the OCS for a period of one year (starting April 2013) at a level of 30% from the aforementioned amount. To the date hereof, Micronet Ltd has received an amount of 1.082 Million NIS (approximately $309,000) out of the approved OCS funding.

Competition
 
Micronet operates in a highly competitive industry. Further, during the last few years, competition in the field of mobile computers has significantly increased with the mass entrance and introduction to the market of smartphones, tablets, and laptops, as well as various GPS-based hand-held devices featuring additional functionalities.
 
Micronet’s current business is focused on customers that are implementing “tailor made” solutions characterized by highly professional, mission critical and complex technological solutions. These solutions are based on Micronet’s products and must sustain and maintain performance under extreme and challenging field conditions for extended periods of time.
 
Micronet believes it has approximately six direct competitors operating in Micronet’s main markets. Most of these competitors are private companies or companies that do not disclose their sales or other financial information, making it difficult to estimate Micronet’s market share and position in the market. Micronet believes that its most significant competitors include: Beijer Electronics, Inc., Morey Corporation (U.S.A.), Mobile Devices Corporation, MOTIA Co. Ltd, Advantech Co., Ltd. and Garmin USA, Inc.
 
This intensely competitive industry is characterized by rapidly changing technologies, evolving industry standards, frequent new product introductions and changes in customer requirements. In order to maintain its competitive strength, Micronet must continue to develop and introduce on a timely and cost-effective basis, new products and product features which are in line with the technological developments and emerging industry standards and address the increasingly sophisticated needs of its customers.
 
Micronet’s management believes its strongest competitive advantages are the durability of its products and reputation in the industry. Its competitive strengths include the following:
 
 
·
30 years of field-proven experience, including engineering and manufacturing know-how;
 
 
·
ability to deliver solutions and products to organizations and customers that are leaders in their respective industries;
 
 
·
ability to integrate advanced technological capabilities to develop new solutions and products with its own manufacturing infrastructures and facilities, with full control over the end-to-end production process and cost-efficiencies;
 
 
·
short “food chain” professional and direct marketing methodology focused on main target customers;
 
 
·
reputation as a leading supplier in relevant markets;
 
 
·
lasting working relationships with customers;
 
 
·
an experienced, dedicated and competent management team; and
 
 
·
Proprietary technology and know-how that allows rapid configuration and implementation of new solutions to meet the special customer needs.
 
Manufacturing
 
With the exception of certain components purchased from subcontractors, Micronet manufactures its products and solutions using its own facilities, capabilities and resources, which enables it to control and manage the manufacturing process and ensure timely delivery. The manufacturing process includes development of electronic cards, assembly of microchips on the electronic cards and the assembly thereof within the unit, final testing and quality tests. On a case by case basis, subcontractors specializing in certain development or manufacturing aspects may be retained to achieve improvement, efficiency or reduction of costs of development and/or manufacturing processes.
 
 
15

 
 
Following certain enhancements in its manufacturing and production capabilities in the last two years, Micronet has excess manufacturing capacity and has the ability to meet current or foreseeable manufacturing needs without making any significant investments. Implemented enhancements include:
 
 
·
upgraded production and assembly line and purchased new machinery with significant higher component implementation scale;
 
 
·
increased factory facilities and upgraded various infrastructures;
 
 
·
entered into an agreement with a leading subcontractor in the field that operates two additional manufacturing facilities, has significant procurement and manufacturing capabilities and resources outside Israel that are available to Micronet;
 
 
·
Certified subcontractors to perform manufacturing process to ensure flexible manufacturing infrastructures and deployment that can be used for disaster recovery scenarios or rapid increase in production needs.
 
If additional manufacturing resources are needed to meet increased demand for Micronet’s products, manufacturing capacity can be enhanced by outsourcing manufacturing processes, recruiting and training additional employees, adding shifts to the labor cycle and purchasing additional manufacturing equipment and machinery or other required infrastructures.
 
Intellectual Property
 
Proprietary rights are important to Micronet’s business because its ability to remain competitive in the market is dependent to a significant degree on its proprietary solutions and products and the technology on which they are based. To protect its proprietary rights, Micronet primarily relies on a combination of copyright and trade secret laws, internal know-how, and agreements with third parties, such as license agreements. In addition, Micronet employs internal controls such as the use of confidentiality and non-disclosure agreements. Micronet believes its proprietary technology incorporates processes, know-how, methods, algorithms, hardware and software that are the result of more than 20 years of experience and in-house expertise and thus are not easily copied. Further, most of the production process is performed in house with the exception of certain specific components that are manufactured by a subcontractor. This limited outsourcing process allows Micronet to maintain the majority of its proprietary information and know-how within the company and lowers its exposure to the risk of its products or solution being copied or used by any third parties.
 
There is a significant amount of litigation with respect to intellectual property in the industry in which Micronet operates. Micronet has not, to date, been the subject of any claims or proceedings with regards to infringement of third party’s proprietary rights and it believes that its products, solutions and services do not violate or infringe any third party’s intellectual property rights.
 
Micronet’s management, together with its research and development team, monitor closely and continuously all technological developments in the market. Micronet considers and evaluates on an ad hoc basis whether technology and proprietary assets should be acquired through independent in-house development or through the purchase of patent or other technological licenses. Where the purchase of third party proprietary technology, solution or products is required and can be of advantage to its business, Micronet would purchase a license and pay appropriate royalties or license fees. Micronet currently has all third-party licenses that it believes are necessary to maintain and develop its business.
 
Government Regulation
 
Micronet’s business is subject to certain international standards such as FCC Part 15B, FCC ID, CE, and RoHS which define compatibility of interface and telecommunications standards to those implemented in Europe by the European Commission and in the U.S. by the Federal Communications Commission. Its solutions and products also comply with the E-Mark European standard, which is the standard that defines the compatibility of interface and telecommunications to all appliances installed in and around an automobile.

Employees
 
As of December 31, 2013, we had approximately 86 full-time employees at Micronet. Of these employees, 65 are employed in engineering and manufacturing positions and sales, and the remainder are employed development, management and administrative positions. Our employees are not represented by any collective bargaining agreement, and we have never experienced a work stoppage. We believe we have good and sustainable relations with our employees.
 
Israeli labor laws and regulations apply to all employees based in Israel. The laws principally concern matters such as paid vacation, paid sick days, length of the workday, payment for overtime and severance payments upon the retirement or death of an employee or termination of employment under specified circumstances. The severance payments may be funded, in whole or in part, through a managers’ insurance fund or a pension fund. The payments to the managers’ insurance fund or pension fund toward severance amount to 8.3% of wages. Furthermore, Israeli employees and employers are required to pay predetermined sums to the National Insurance Institute of Israel. Since January 1, 1995, these amounts also include payments for health insurance. The payments to the National Insurance Institute amount to approximately 14.5% of wages, of which the employee contributes 66% and the employer contributes 34%.
 
We, including our subsidiaries, employed an aggregate of 193 employees on December 31, 2013.
 
SEGMENT REPORTING
 
Operating segments are based upon our internal organization structure, the manner in which our operations are managed and the availability of separate financial information. Following the purchase of controlling shares of Micronet in September 2012 we have two operating segments: defense and aerospace segment conducted by Enertec and mobile resource management conducted by Micronet.  See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" and our consolidated financial statements included in "Exhibits and Financial Statement Schedules" of this Annual Report for further financial information on our operating segments.
 
Risk Factors.
 
Investing in our securities involves a high degree of risk. Investors should carefully consider the following risk factors, as well as the other information in this Annual Report (including our financial statements and the related notes appearing at the end of this report), before deciding whether to invest in our securities. Investment risks can be market-wide as well as unique to a specific industry or company. The market risks faced by an investor in our common stock are similar to the uncertainties faced by investors in a broad range of industries. There are, however, some risks that apply more specifically to the Company because our business is focused on developing, manufacturing, integrating and marketing globally rugged and military computers, tablets and computer based systems and instruments for the commercial, defense and aerospace markets. These customer relationships involve certain unique risks. Our business is also exposed mainly to common risks, such as the ongoing development of high technology products and the price, availability and quality of commodities and subsystems. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial also may impair our business operations. The occurrence of any of the following risks could harm our business, financial condition, results of operations or growth prospects. In that case, the trading price of our securities could decline, and investors may lose all or part of their investment.

Risks Related to Our Business and Industry

Potential political, economic and military instability in Israel could adversely affect our operations.  The principal offices and operating facilities of Enertec and Micronet are located in Israel. Accordingly, political, economic and military conditions in Israel directly affect our operations. Since the establishment of the State of Israel in 1948, a number of armed conflicts have taken place between Israel and its Arab neighbors. A state of hostility, varying in degree and intensity, has led to security and economic problems for Israel. Since October 2000, there has been an increase in hostilities between Israel and the Palestinian Arabs, which has adversely affected the peace process and has negatively influenced Israel’s relationship with its Arab citizens and several Arab countries, including the Israel-Gaza conflict. Such ongoing hostilities may hinder Israel’s international trade relations and may limit the geographic markets where we can sell our products and solutions. Hostilities involving or threatening Israel, or the interruption or curtailment of trade between Israel and its present trading partners, could materially and adversely affect our operations.
 
 
17

 
 
In addition, Israel-based companies and companies doing business with Israel have been the subject of an economic boycott by members of the Arab League and certain other predominantly Muslim countries since Israel’s establishment. Although Israel has entered into various agreements with certain Arab countries and the Palestinian Authority, and various declarations have been signed in connection with efforts to resolve some of the economic and political problems in the Middle East, we cannot predict whether or in what manner these problems will be resolved. Wars and acts of terrorism have resulted in significant damage to the Israeli economy, including reducing the level of foreign and local investment.
 
Furthermore, certain of our officers and employees may be obligated to perform annual reserve duty in the Israel Defense Forces and are subject to being called up for active military duty at any time. All Israeli male citizens who have served in the army are subject to an obligation to perform reserve duty until they are between 40 and 49 years old, depending upon the nature of their military service.
 
If we are unable to develop new products and maintain a qualified workforce we may not be able to meet the needs of our customers in the future.
 
Virtually all of the products that we produce and sell are highly engineered and require sophisticated manufacturing and system-integration techniques and capabilities. The markets and industry in which we operate are characterized by rapidly changing technologies. The products, systems and solutions needs of our customers change and evolve regularly. Accordingly, our future performance depends on our ability to develop and manufacture competitive products and solutions, and bring those products to market quickly at cost-effective prices. In addition, because of the highly specialized nature of our business, we must be able to hire and retain the skilled and qualified personnel necessary to perform the services required by our customers. If we are unable to develop new products that meet customers’ changing needs or successfully attract and retain qualified personnel, our future revenues and earnings may be adversely affected.
 
We are dependent on the services of our executive officers, whose potential conflicts of interest may not permit us to effectively execute our business strategy.  We currently depend on the continued services and performance of our executive officers, particularly David Lucatz, our Chairman and also Micronet's LTD chairman, Chief Executive Officer and President. Mr. Lucatz also serves as the President, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of D.L. Capital Ltd., or DLC, the primary asset of which is its ownership of shares of our common stock. We have a management and consulting services agreement with DLC. Pursuant to a separate management and consulting services agreement, Mr. Lucatz has agreed to devote 60% of his time to Micronet matters for the three-year term of that agreement. Our business and results of operations may suffer if Mr. Lucatz, or any of our other executive officers or directors, is unable to devote the attention necessary to our overall business strategy and operations.
 
Developing new technologies entails significant risks and uncertainties that may cause us to incur significant costs and could have a material adverse effect on our operating results, financial condition, and/or cash flows.  A significant portion of our business relates to developing sophisticated products and applications. New technologies may be untested or unproven. In addition, we may incur significant liabilities that are unique to our products and services. While we maintain insurance for some business risks, it is not practicable to obtain coverage to protect against all operational risks and liabilities. In addition, we may seek limitation of potential liability related to the sale and use of our products and systems. We may elect to provide products or services even in instances where we are unable to obtain such indemnification or qualification. Accordingly, we may be forced to bear substantial costs resulting from risks and uncertainties of our products and products under development, which could have a material adverse effect on our operating results, financial condition and/or cash flows.

If we are unable to effectively protect our proprietary technology, our business and competitive position may be harmed.  Our success and ability to compete are dependent on our proprietary technology. The steps each of our operations, Enertec and Micronet, has taken to protect its proprietary rights may not be adequate and we may not be able to prevent others from using our proprietary technology. The methodologies and proprietary technology that constitute the basis of each of Enertec’s and Micronet’s solutions and products are not protected by patents. Existing trade secret, copyright and trademark laws and non-disclosure agreements to which each of Enertec and Micronet is a party offer only limited protection. Therefore, others, including Enertec’s or Micronet’s competitors, may develop and market similar solutions and products, copy or reverse engineer elements of Enertec’s systems or Micronet’s production lines, or engage in the unauthorized use of Enertec’s or Micronet’s intellectual property. Any misappropriation of Enertec’s or Micronet’s proprietary technology or the development of competitive technology may have a significant adverse effect on Enertec’s or Micronet’s ability to compete and may harm our business and financial position.
 
We may incur substantial costs as a result of litigation or other proceedings relating to intellectual property rights.  Third parties may challenge the validity of Enertec’s or Micronet’s intellectual property rights or bring claims regarding Enertec’s or Micronet’s infringement of a third party’s property rights. This may result in costly litigation or other time-consuming and expensive judicial or administrative proceedings, which could deprive us of valuable rights, cause us to incur substantial expenses and cause a diversion for technical and management personnel. An adverse determination may subject us to significant liabilities or require us to seek licenses that may not be available from third parties on commercially favorable terms, if at all. Further, if such claims are proven valid, through litigation or otherwise, we may be required to pay substantial financial damages or be required to discontinue or significantly delay the development, marketing, sale or licensing of the affected products and intellectual property rights.
 
Our earnings and margins may be negatively impacted if we are unable to perform under our contracts.  When agreeing to contractual terms, our management makes assumptions and projections about future conditions or events. These projections assess:
 
 
·
the productivity and availability of labor;
 
 
·
the complexity of the work to be performed;
 
 
·
the cost and availability of materials;
 
 
·
the impact of delayed performance; and
 
 
·
The timing of product deliveries.
 
If there is a significant change in one or more of these circumstances or estimates, or if we face unexpected contract costs, the profitability of one or more of these contracts may be adversely affected and could affect, among other things, our earnings and margins, due to the fact that our contracts are often made on a fixed-price basis.
 
Our earnings and margins could be negatively affected by deficient subcontractor performance or unavailable raw materials or components.  We rely on other companies to provide raw materials, major components and subsystems for our products. Subcontractors perform some of the services that we provide to our customers. We depend on these subcontractors and vendors to meet our contractual obligations in full compliance with customer requirements. Occasionally, we rely on only one or two sources of supply that, if disrupted, could have an adverse effect on our ability to meet our commitments to customers. Our ability to perform our obligations as a prime contractor may be adversely affected if one or more of these suppliers is unable to provide the agreed-upon supplies or perform the agreed-upon services in a timely and cost-effective manner. Further, deficiencies in the performance of our subcontractors and vendors could result in a customer terminating a contract for default. A termination for default could expose us to liability and adversely affect our financial performance and our ability to win new contracts.
 
 
19

 
 
We depend on major customers for a significant portion of our revenues and our future revenues and earnings could be negatively impacted by the loss or reduction of the demand for our products or services by such customers.  A significant portion of our annual revenues in the past two years derived  from a few leading customers that are large scale strategic Israeli defense groups (Rafael, IAI). Following the acquisition of Micronet, PeopleNet, a subsidiary of Trimble, which operates in the U.S. market, has been added as a major customer. In view of the above, as of December 31, 2013, we had three customers that combined account for approximately 85.13% of our revenues. This is in comparison to 2012 during which we had three customers which accounted for 80.95% of revenues as of December 31, 2012.
 
Israeli defense spending historically has been driven by perceived threats to the country’s national security. Although Israel has been under a sustained elevated threat level in recent years, we cannot provide any assurance that its defense budget will continue to grow at the pace it has over the past decade. A decrease in Israel’s defense spending or changes in spending allocation could result in one or more of our programs being reduced, delayed or terminated. Reductions in our existing programs could adversely affect our future revenues and earnings. In the MRM market, most of our major customers do not have any obligation to purchase additional products or services from us. Therefore, we cannot provide any assurance that any of our leading customers will continue to purchase solutions, products or services at levels comparable to previous years. A substantial loss or reduction in Micronet’s existing programs could adversely affect our future revenues and earnings.
 
We operate in a highly competitive and fragmented market and may not be able to maintain our competitive position in the future.  A number of larger competitors have recently entered the MRM market in which Micronet operates. These large companies have far greater development and capital resources than Micronet. Further, there are competitors of Micronet that offer solutions, products and services similar to those offered by Micronet. If they continue, these trends could undermine Micronet’s competitive strength and position and adversely affect our earnings and financial condition.
 
Micronet may cease to be eligible for, or receive reduced, tax benefits under Israeli law, which could negatively impact our profits in the future.  Micronet currently receives certain tax benefits under the Israeli Law for Encouragement of Capital Investments of 1959, as a result of the designation of its production facility as an “Approved Enterprise.” To maintain its eligibility for these tax benefits, Micronet must continue to meet several conditions including, among others, generating more than 25% of its gross revenues outside the State of Israel and continuing to qualify as an “Industrial Company” under Israeli tax law. An Industrial Company, according to the applicable Israeli law (Law for the Encouragement of Industry (Taxes), 1969), is a company that resides in Israel (either incorporated in Israel or managed and controlled from Israel) that, during the relevant tax year, derives at least 90% of its income from an Industrial Factory. An Industrial Factory means a factory that is owned by an Industrial Company and where its manufacturing operations constitute a vast majority of the factory’s total operations/business. The tax benefits of qualifying as an Industrial Company include a reduction of the corporate tax from 25% to 12% in 2013. In addition, in recent years the Israeli government has reduced the benefits available under this program and has indicated that it may further reduce or eliminate benefits in the future. There is no assurance that Micronet will continue to qualify for these tax benefits or that such tax benefits will continue to be available at their current level, or at all. The termination or reduction of these tax benefits would increase the amount of tax payable by Micronet and, accordingly, reduce its net profit after tax and negatively impact our profits.
 
Because almost all of our officers and directors are located in non-U.S. jurisdictions, you may have no effective recourse against our management for misconduct.  Currently, a majority of our directors and officers are or will be nationals and/or residents of countries other than the United States, and all or a substantial portion of their assets are located outside the United States. As a result, it may be difficult for investors to enforce within the United States any judgments obtained against such officers or directors, including judgments predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the securities laws of the United States or any U.S. state. Additionally, it may be difficult to enforce civil liabilities under U.S. securities law in original actions instituted in Israel. Israeli courts may refuse to hear a claim based on a violation of U.S. securities laws because Israel is not the most appropriate forum to bring such a claim. In addition, even if an Israeli court agrees to hear a claim, it may determine that Israeli law and not U.S. law is applicable to hear the claim. If U.S. law is found to be applicable, the content of applicable U.S. law must be proved as a fact, which can be a time-consuming and costly process. Certain matters of procedure will also be governed by Israeli law.

Our financial results may be negatively affected by foreign exchange rate fluctuations.  Our revenues are mainly denominated in U.S. currency and our costs are mainly denominated in Israeli currency. Where possible, we match sales and purchases in these and other currencies to achieve a natural hedge. Currently, neither Enertec nor Micronet has a policy with respect to the use of derivative instruments for hedging purposes, except that both Enertec and Micronet will consider engaging in such hedging activities on a case by case basis. To the extent we are unable to fully match our sales and purchases in different currencies, our business will be exposed to fluctuations in foreign exchange rates.
 
If we fail to manage our growth, our business could be disrupted and our profitability could be reduced.  We have experienced rapid growth in recent periods through both the acquisition of Micronet and organic growth. As a result of our acquisition of Micronet, the number of our employees has effectively doubled since September 2012. We expect our growth may significantly strain our management and other operational and financial resources. In particular, growth increases the integration challenges involved in recruiting, training and retaining skilled technical, marketing and management personnel; maintaining high quality standards; preserving our corporate culture, values and entrepreneurial environment; developing and improving our internal administrative infrastructure, particularly our financial, operational, communications and other internal controls; and maintaining high levels of client satisfaction. If we are unable to manage growth effectively, our business, financial condition and results of operations will be materially adversely affected.
 
Our quarterly revenues may fluctuate as a result of seasonal variation within the Israeli military procurement industry.  Enertec’s revenues experience seasonal variations because Israeli Ministry of Defense project approvals are frequently provided after the start of the fiscal year. Therefore, new orders to the military suppliers, including Enertec, are often delayed until the second half of the year. In addition, some of our customers require deliveries during the fourth quarter of the year in order to fulfill contractual delivery obligations to their own customers. As a result, we often experience an increase in our fourth quarter sales relative to sales in other quarters.
 
If our beneficial ownership of Micronet’s ordinary shares declines, we may not be able to treat Micronet as our subsidiary, which may adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations. We currently hold 52.2% of Micronet’s outstanding ordinary shares through our subsidiary Enertec Electronics. If we are unable to consider Micronet as a consolidated subsidiary, our financial condition and results of operations may be adversely affected and may cause interest in or the market price of our securities to decline.
 
Risks Related to Ownership of our Securities
 
Your ability to influence corporate decisions may be limited because ownership of our common stock is concentrated As of March 28, 2014, Mr. Lucatz, our Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and President beneficially owns 2,597,200 shares, or approximately 44.54%, of our outstanding common stock. As a result, Mr. Lucatz, may effectively control matters requiring stockholder approval, including the election of directors and approval of significant corporate transactions. Such concentration of ownership may also have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control of the company, and this may have a material adverse effect on the trading price of our common stock.
 
Provisions in our corporate charter documents and under Delaware law could make an acquisition of us, which may be beneficial to our stockholders, more difficult and may prevent attempts by our stockholders to replace or remove our current management.  Provisions in our certificate of incorporation, as amended, and amended and restated bylaws may discourage, delay or prevent a merger, acquisition or other change in control of us that stockholders may consider favorable, including transactions in which you might otherwise receive a premium for your common stock. These provisions could also limit the price that investors might be willing to pay in the future for our securities, thereby depressing the market price of our securities. In addition, these provisions may frustrate or prevent any attempts by our stockholders to replace or remove our current management by making it more difficult for stockholders to replace members of our board of directors. Because our board of directors is responsible for appointing the members of our management team, these provisions could in turn affect any attempt by our stockholders to replace current members of our management team.
 
 
21

 
 
Moreover, because we are incorporated in Delaware, we are governed by the provisions of Section 203 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, or the DGCL, which prohibits a person who owns in excess of 15% of our outstanding voting stock from merging or combining with us for a period of three years after the date of the transaction in which the person acquired in excess of 15% of our outstanding voting stock, unless the merger or combination is approved in a prescribed manner. We have not opted out of the restrictions under Section 203.
 
Our stockholders may experience significant dilution as a result of any additional financing using our equity securities and/or debt securities.  To the extent that we raise additional funds by issuing equity securities or convertible debt securities, our stockholders may experience significant dilution. Sale of additional equity and/or convertible debt securities at prices below certain levels will trigger anti-dilution provisions with respect to certain securities we have previously sold. If additional funds are raised through a credit facility or the issuance of debt securities or preferred stock, lenders under the credit facility or holders of these debt securities or preferred stock would likely have rights that are senior to the rights of holders of our common stock, and any credit facility or additional securities could contain covenants that would restrict our operations.
 
If the price of our common stock is volatile, purchasers of our common stock could incur substantial losses.  The price of our common stock has been, and may continue to be volatile. The market price of our common stock may be influenced by many factors, including but not limited to the following:
 
 
·
announcements of developments related to our business;
 
 
·
quarterly fluctuations in our actual or anticipated operating results;
 
 
·
announcements of technological innovations;
 
 
·
new products or product enhancements introduced by us or by our competitors;
 
 
·
developments in patents and other intellectual property rights and litigation;
 
 
·
developments in our relationships with our third party manufacturers and/or strategic partners;
 
 
·
developments in our relationships with our customers and/or suppliers;
 
 
·
regulatory or legal developments in the United States, Israel and other countries;
 
 
·
general conditions in the global economy; and
 
 
·
Any other factors described in this “Risk Factors” section.
 
For these reasons and others, you should consider an investment in our common stock as risky and invest only if you can withstand a significant loss and wide fluctuations in the value of your investment.
 
A sale of a substantial number of shares of our common stock or securities convertible into or exercisable for our common stock may cause the price of our common stock to decline and may impair our ability to raise capital in the future.
 
Our common stock is traded on the Nasdaq Capital Market and, despite certain increases of trading volume from time to time, there have been periods when it could be considered “thinly-traded,” meaning that the number of persons interested in purchasing our common stock at or near bid prices at any given time may have been relatively small or non-existent. Finance transactions resulting in a large amount of newly issued securities that become readily tradable, or other events that cause current stockholders to sell shares, could place downward pressure on the trading price of our common stock. In addition, the lack of a robust resale market may require a stockholder who desires to sell a large number of shares of common stock to sell those shares in increments over time to mitigate any adverse impact of the sales on the market price of our stock. If our stockholders sell, or the market perceives that our stockholders intend to sell for various reasons, including the ending of restriction on resale, substantial amounts of our common stock in the public market, including shares issued upon the exercise of outstanding options or warrants, the market price of our common stock could fall. Sales of a substantial number of shares of our common stock may make it more difficult for us to sell equity or equity-related securities in the future at a time and price that we deem reasonable or appropriate. Moreover, we may become involved in securities class action litigation that could divert management’s attention and harm our business.
 
 
22

 
 
If securities or industry analysts do not publish research or reports or publish unfavorable research about our business, the price of our common stock could decline.
 
We do not currently have and may never obtain research coverage by securities and industry analysts. If no securities or industry analysts commence coverage of us, the trading price for our common stock would be negatively affected. In the event we obtain securities or industry analyst coverage, if one or more of the analysts who covers us downgrades our securities, the price of our common stock would likely decline. If one or more of these analysts ceases to cover us or fails to publish regular reports on us, interest in the purchase of our common stock could decrease, which could cause the price of our common stock and trading volume to decline.
 
We did not declare or pay cash dividends in either 2013 or 2012 and do not expect to pay dividends for the foreseeable future.
 
We have no dividends policy and will consider distributing dividends on a year by year basis. The payment of dividends, if any, in the future, rests within the discretion of our board of directors and will depend, among other things, upon our earnings, our capital requirements and our financial condition, as well as other relevant factors. There are no restrictions in our certificate of incorporation, as amended, or amended and restated bylaws that restrict us from declaring dividends. There are no assurances that we will pay dividends in the future.
 
If we fail to continue to meet all applicable NASDAQ Capital Market requirements, NASDAQ may delist our common stock, which could have an adverse impact on the liquidity and market price of our common stock.
 
Our common stock is currently listed on The NASDAQ Global Market, which has qualitative and quantitative listing criteria. If we are unable to meet any of the Nasdaq listing requirements in the future, including, for example, if the closing bid price for our common stock falls below $1.00 per share for 30 consecutive trading days, Nasdaq could determine to delist our common stock, which could adversely affect the market liquidity of our common stock and the market price of our common stock could decrease. Such delisting could also adversely affect our ability to obtain financing for the continuation of our operations and could result in the loss of confidence by investors, customers and employees.

Properties.
 
Enertec’s properties consist of leased combined office and manufacturing facilities used for sales, support, research and development, manufacturing, and our headquarters (management and administrative personnel). Enertec’s offices and facilities currently consist of approximately 25,000 square feet located in Karmiel, in the north of Israel leased at approximately $270,000 per year for the remaining lease duration. The lease term expires in June 2021, subject to two five-year extension options and early termination provision after five years, which we hold. We believe that Enertec’s present facilities are suitable for its existing and projected operations for the near future.

Micronet currently maintains two facilities in adjacent buildings in Azor, Israel. One of these facilities is leased, or the Lease, and the other facility is under a long-term lease, or the Long Term Lease, under which Micronet has purchased “like ownership” rights from the Israeli Land Administration. The facility subject to the Long Term Lease is used as Micronet’s headquarters and the facility subject to the Lease is an industrial building which houses its factory. Micronet’s executive offices occupy approximately 9,688 square feet and house the corporate functions, sales support, marketing, finance, engineering and operating groups. The Long Term Lease expires in April 2028, subject to our option to extend the term by another 49 years. We do not pay rent with respect to this facility because we have purchased the lease rights. The factory facility occupies approximately 11,840 square feet and is used for the manufacturing and logistic support of the business, including warehouse. The Lease expired in June 2013, and the company extended the term for two additional years until June 2015, and has a current annual base rent, including property management fees, of approximately $130,000 per year. Micronet believes that its present facilities are suitable for its existing and projected operations for the near future.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
 
Overview                      
 
We are a Delaware corporation that was formed on January 31, 2002. On March 14, 2013, we changed our corporate name from Lapis Technologies, Inc. to Micronet Enertec Technologies, Inc. The Company's shares and warrants have been traded on NASDAQ as of April 29, 2013.
 
We operate through two Israel-based companies, Enertec Systems 2001 Ltd, or Enertec, our wholly-owned subsidiary, and Micronet Ltd, or Micronet, in which we have a controlling interest, which develop, manufacture, integrate and globally market rugged computers, tablets and computer-based systems and instruments for the commercial, defense and aerospace markets. Our products, solutions and services are designed to perform in severe environments and battlefield conditions.
 
Micronet operates in the growing commercial Mobile Resource Management, or MRM market. Micronet designs, develops, manufactures and sells rugged mobile computing devices that provide fleet operators and field workforces with computing solutions in challenging work environments. Micronet’s vehicle cabin installed and portable tablets are designed to increase workforce productivity, enhance corporate efficiency and customer service by offering computing power and communication capabilities. The Micronet products provide fleet operators  with visibility into vehicle location, fuel usage, speed and mileage and allow the installation of software applications and communication integration enabling the users to manage the drivers in various aspects such as: driver identification, hours working report, customer/organization working procedures and protocols, rout management and navigation based on tasks and time schedule. End user may also receive real time messages for various services such as pickup and delivery, repair and maintenance, status reports, alerts, notices relating to start and ending of work, digital forms, issuing and printing of invoices and payments. Micronet’s customers consist primarily of Application Service Providers (ASPs) and Solution providers specializing in the MRM market. Currently, Micronet does not sell to end-users.

Enertec operates in the Defense and Aerospace markets and designs, develops, manufactures and supplies various customized military computer-based systems, simulators, automatic test equipment and electronic instruments. Enertec’s solutions and systems are designed according to major aerospace integrators’ requirements and are integrated by them into critical systems such as command and control, missile fire control, maintenance of military aircraft and missiles for use by the Israeli Air Force and Navy and by foreign defense entities. Our strategy is driven and focused on continued internal growth through diligent efforts in our traditional growing markets with new technologies and innovative systems and products as well as the development of new potential segments and markets. Concurrent with our efforts to grow organically and in line with our strategy, we will continue to seek acquisitions that will complement and expand our offerings, support our goals and increase our competitiveness. In order to help achieve our internal growth, we have expanded our production capacity and facilities. The Acquisition serves our strategy to grow our business, and we believe that Micronet and its research and development, proprietary know-how and manufacturing capabilities will assist us in expanding our capability to provide turnkey solutions of computer based complex systems and solutions for commercial defense and aerospace applications as well. We strongly believe that by utilizing Micronet as our commercial arm we will be able to access new market segments and new customers, thereby increase our overall customer base. Our current target markets, in which we concentrate the majority of our resources, include the Israeli domestic market, the United States market, the European market as well as the large growing Indian defense market. In order to be able to sell into the Indian defense market, we entered into an agreement establishing a new joint venture with Amtek Defense Technologies Limited of Amtek Auto Limited, a leading Indian industrial group, for the formation of a manufacturing and marketing platform in India of products based on our technologies and know-how. The formation of the joint venture is intended to provide us with the ability to deliver new competitive offset and production solutions to our existing customers as well as to enhance our ability to access new customers.
 
In the second quarter of 2013, we closed an underwritten public offering of shares of Common Stock, and warrants to purchase shares of Common Stock for an aggregate consideration of $9,324,000 before deduction of issuance costs of $1,921,841 payable by us. The shares and warrants began trading on the NASDAQ Capital Market on April 24, 2013 under the symbols “MICT” and “MICTW,” respectively.
 
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
 
In addition to providing financial measurements based on generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America, ("GAAP"), we provide additional financial metrics that are not prepared in accordance with GAAP, (“non-GAAP”). Management uses non-GAAP financial measures, in addition to GAAP financial measures, to understand and compare operating results across accounting periods, for financial and operational decision making, for planning and forecasting purposes and to evaluate our financial performance.
 
Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures reflect our ongoing business in a manner that allows for meaningful comparisons and analysis of trends in our business, as they exclude expenses and gains that does not reflect our ongoing operating results. Management also believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors in understanding and evaluating our operating results and future prospects in the same manner as management and in comparing financial results across accounting periods and to those of peer companies.
 
The non-GAAP financial measures do not replace the presentation of our GAAP financial results and should only be used as a supplement to, not as a substitute for, our financial results presented in accordance with GAAP.
 
The non-GAAP adjustments, and the basis for excluding them from non-GAAP financial measures, are outlined below:
 
 
·
Amortization of acquired intangible assets - We are required to amortize the intangible assets, included in our GAAP financial statements, related to the Acquisition of Micronet. The amount of an acquisition’s purchase price allocated to intangible assets and term of its related amortization are unique to the Acquisition. The amortization of acquired intangible assets is non-cash charges. We expect that such charges will be nonrecurring and do not reflect our operational performance. Therefore, we exclude amortization of acquired intangible assets to provide investors with a consistent basis for comparing pre- and post-acquisition operating results.
 
 
26

 
 
 
·
Amortization of UTA’s note discount and related expenses - These interest expenses are non-cash and are related to amortization of discount of the First Note and Second Note. Such expenses do not reflect our on-going operations and most of them will be incurred up to the end of fiscal 2014.
 
 
·
Change in fair value of call / put options and warrants – The change in fair value in 2013 of the call/put options relating to the Acquisition is recorded as interest expense. The change in fair value is derived primarily from Micronet’s share price and does not reflect our on-going operations.  In 2012, the change in fair value of UTA warrants derived from changes in the price of our Common Stock and does not reflect our ongoing operations as well.
 
 
·
Stock-based compensation is share based awards granted to certain individuals. They are noncash and affected by our historical stock prices which are irrelevant to forward-looking analyses and are not necessarily linked to the operational performance.
 
 
·
Gain on bargain purchase - the fair values of assets acquired pursuant to Micronet's acquisition exceeded the purchase price, which was recorded as a bargain purchase gain, and is shown as a separate component of non-operating income. And does not reflect our ongoing operations as well.
 
The following table reconciles, for the periods presented, GAAP net loss attributable to Micronet Enertec to non-GAAP net income attributable to Micronet Enertec and GAAP loss per diluted share attributable to Micronet Enertec to non-GAAP net income per diluted share attributable to Micronet Enertec:

Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
On September 7, 2012, we, through our wholly-owned subsidiary Enertec Electronics, acquired from three Israeli individuals who collectively were the former controlling shareholders, or the Sellers, 47.5% of the issued and outstanding shares of Micronet pursuant to a stock purchase agreement, or the Agreement. As a result of the transaction, we became the largest shareholder of Micronet.
 
 
27

 
 
Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, the Company acquired from the Sellers 8,256,000 ordinary shares of Micronet for approximately 17,300,000 NIS (approximately $4,300,000), divided pro rata among the Sellers. The Agreement also includes two call options granted to the Company and a put option granted to the Sellers. Pursuant to the initial call option, the Company was  entitled to purchase from the Sellers, during the period beginning on the closing of the transaction and for 11 months thereafter, up to an additional 996,000 ordinary shares of Micronet (5.49% of Micronet’s issued and outstanding shares) for a price of 2.1 NIS (reflecting $0.605 per share) per share as adjusted based on the Israeli customers index. Under the second call option, the Company is entitled to purchase from the Sellers, during the period beginning 12 months from the closing of the transaction and expiring 21 months from the closing of the transaction, up to an additional 1,200,000 ordinary shares of Micronet (6.62% of Micronet’s issued and outstanding shares) for a price of 2.1 NIS per share as adjusted based on the Israeli customers index (reflecting $0.605 per share) plus 25% of Micronet’s 2012 gross profit per share based on Micronet’s issued and outstanding shares as of December 31, 2012, up to a maximum of 18,850,000 shares, but in any event such price per share shall not exceed 3 NIS (reflecting $0.864 per share). Pursuant to the put option granted to Sellers, the Sellers can cause the sale of up to an additional 333,334 ordinary shares per Seller (and a total of up to 1,000,002 shares constituting 5.73% of Micronet’s issued and outstanding shares) for a price of 2.2 NIS per share (reflecting $0.633 per share) as adjusted based on the Israeli customers index. The put option is in effect until August 2014.
 
On November 14, 2012 and on May 28, 2013, the Company, via Enertec Electronics, exercised its right pursuant to the initial call option granted under the Agreement and acquired an additional 996,000 ordinary shares of Micronet for a total consideration of $558,000,, increasing our ownership to 51% of the issued and outstanding shares of Micronet. On August 18, 2013 the Company purchased additional 600,000 ordinary shares of Micronet in consideration of $676,000.  As a result, the company increased its holdings to 54.3% of the issued and outstanding shares of Micronet which were thereafter diluted on November 4, 2013 as a result of the exercise of certain options by Micronet officers.  We currently own approximately 52.26% of the issued and outstanding shares of Micronet.
 
On July 12, 2011, the Company entered into a Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement with UTA Capital LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“UTA”), (the “Purchase Agreement,” and as amended by that certain letter agreement dated as of August 16, 2011, and as further amended by that certain Second Amendment to Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement dated as of August 31, 2011 and that certain Third Amendment to Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement dated as of November 24, 2011, the “Original Agreement”) pursuant to which UTA agreed to provide financing to Micronet Enertec on a secured basis.
 
The initial closing (the “Initial Closing”) of the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement took place on September 1, 2011.  In connection therewith, the Company issued to UTA a secured promissory note in the principal amount of $3,000 that maturds on March 1, 2014 (the “First Note”). The First Note bears interest at a rate of 8% per annum and the principal was due to be repaid in three equal principal payments of $1,000 on each of September 1, 2012, September 1, 2013 and March 1, 2014. Net proceeds from the sale of the First Note were to be used as working capital for the Company and its subsidiaries.  In addition, the Company issued to UTA a warrant (the “First Warrant”) to purchase up to 476,113 shares of the Company’s Common Stock at an exercise price initially equal to $1.00 per share, representing 12% of the Company’s outstanding shares of Common Stock, on a fully diluted basis.  The First Warrant became exercisable on March 1, 2012 and was exercised in full in March 2013. The Company agreed to certain customary covenants in connection with the issuance of the First Warrant.

At the issuance date of the First Warrant, the Company recorded the fair value of the First Warrant issued with the First Note as a derivative liability of $828 using the Black–Scholes option pricing model with a corresponding increase in debt discount as the Company determined that warrants are not indexed to the Company’s Common Stock pursuant to FASB ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging (ASC 815-40-25). Debt discount is being amortized over the term of the loan to the stated maturity date and is presented as a component of interest expense in the accompanying statements of operations. Amortization of the debt discount for the year ended December 31, 2013 was $386, and is included as a component of interest expense.
 
Amended and Restated Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement
 
In connection with the Acquisition, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement (the “Amended Agreement”) with UTA dated September 7, 2012.  The Amended Agreement included mainly changes to the collateral obligations to secure the notes and the postponement of the first installment from September 2012 to December 2012.

Second Closing
 
On September 7, 2012, the Company issued to UTA, pursuant to the Amended Agreement: (i) the Second  Note in the principal amount of $3,000, with an initial interest rate equal to 8% per annum, $1,500 of such amount payable on May 15, 2013, and the remaining balance due at the maturity date of April 1, 2014, and (ii) the Second Warrant entitling UTA to purchase from the Company up to a total of 300,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock at an exercise price initially equal to $1.30 per share, first exercisable during a period beginning six months from September 7, 2012, and ending 66 months from September 7, 2012. At the issuance date, the Company recorded the fair value of the Second Warrant issued with the $3,000 Note as a derivative liability amounting to $872 using the Black–Scholes option pricing model with a corresponding increase in debt discount as the Company determined that warrants (ratchet down of exercise price based upon lower exercise price in future offerings) are not indexed to the Company’s Common Stock pursuant to FASB ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging (ASC 815-40-25). Debt discount is being amortized over the term of the loan to the stated maturity date and is presented as a component of interest expense in the accompanying statements of operations. Amortization of the debt discount for the year ended December 31, 2013 was $720, and is included as a component of interest expense.
 
On November 6, 2012 the Company and UTA amended the terms of the Warrants pursuant to which UTA waived its right to anti-dilution protection in case the Company issued additional shares of Common Stock, while the Company waived certain upward exercise price adjustment provisions included in the Warrants. Following this amendment, the Warrants were classified to equity in the amount of $1,105.
 
On January 28, 2013, the Company and UTA amended the terms of the Amended Agreement and the First Note and Second Note to provide that any net proceeds of any equity financing by us or any of our subsidiaries will be applied as follows: (x) the first $4,000 may be retained by us or applied to reduce other obligations of ours or any of our subsidiaries, and (y) 75% of the excess of such net proceeds over $4,000 may be retained by us or applied to reduce other obligations of ours or any of our subsidiaries, and the remaining 25% shall be applied (A) first to the repayment of the First Note and (B) second, to the extent any proceeds remain, to the repayment of the Second Note.  The Company and UTA also agreed upon the application of our December 17, 2012 prepayment of $2,500 owed to UTA and the release of certain collateral in connection therewith. In consideration for the amendments and releases the Company agreed to pay UTA $480 in cash or a combination of cash and shares of the Company's Common Stock. This amount was recorded as a liability and the expenses are charged to income through the period of the notes.
  
On March 8, 2013, UTA fully exercised the Warrants and the Company issued an aggregate of 726,746 shares of Common Stock to UTA upon such exercise, which represented approximately 18.3% of the Company’s outstanding Common Stock as of March 14, 2013. The First Warrant, to purchase 476,113 shares of Common Stock, issued to UTA in September 2011, was exercised for the full amount of such shares at an aggregate exercise price of $476 based on an exercise price of $1.00 per share, which exercise price was paid by reducing the $480 liability the Company owed UTA for the amendments and releases described above. The Second Warrant, to purchase 300,000 shares of Common Stock, issued to UTA in September 2012, was exercised for 250,633 shares through a cashless exercise method.
 
In May 2013, the Company repaid certain of its debt to UTA pursuant to the First Note and Second Note in a total amount of $1,185. In June 2013, the Company repaid additional amounts of its debt to UTA pursuant to the First Note in a total amount of $282.

On December 30, 2013, the company and UTA entered into an amendment (the “Second Amendment”) to the Amended and Restated Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement, dated as of August 31, 2012, as first amended on January 28, 2013. Pursuant to the Second Amendment, among other things, the maturity date of the second note executed between the Company and the Purchaser (the “Second Note”) was extended to January 10, 2015 and the maturity date of the first note executed between the Company and the Purchaser (the “First Note”) was set on December 30, 2013.  On December 30, 2013 the Company repaid to the Purchaser an amount of $1,032,163, including repayment in full of the First Note. Subsequently, the final payment of the principal amount under the Second Note, originally due to Purchaser in May 2014 in the amount of $1,000 was postponed to January 10, 2015.

As of December 31, 2013, our total cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities balance was $19,794,000 (of which marketable securities amounted to $6,969,000), as compared to $13,794,000 and (of which marketable securities amounted to $3,183,000), as of December 31, 2012.This reflects a significant increase of $6,000,000 in cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities. The increase in cash and cash equivalents is primarily a result of the gross proceeds from the public offering conducted during the second quarter.
 
 
29

 
 
As of December 31, 2013, our total current assets were $39,210,000, as compared to $33,984,000 at December 31, 2012.
 
Our trade accounts receivable at December 31, 2013 were $13,467,000 as compared to $9,914,000 at December 31, 2012
 
As of December 31, 2013, our working capital was $26,436,000, as compared to $19,430,000 at December 31, 2012. The increase in the working capital is due primarily to the increase in cash and cash equivalents.
 
As of December 31, 2013, our total bank debt (including current portion on long-term loans from others) was $8,188,000 as compared to $10,301,000 at December 31, 2012. Our bank and other debt is composed of short-term loans amounting to $5,058,000 as of December 31, 2013 compared to $6,360,000 at December 31, 2012, and long-term loans amounting to $3,130,000 as of December 31, 2013 compared to $3,941,000 at December 31, 2012. The short-term loans have maturity dates between January 2014 and December 2014 and have interest rates between Israeli prime (currently 2.25%) plus 0.7% to prime plus 2.75%. The long-term loans have maturity dates between February 2015 and August 2018 and have interest rates between Israeli prime plus 1.25% to prime plus 2.75%.
 
As of December 31, 2013 there was no current portion of long-term loans from others and a convertible debenture as compared to $1,671,000 at December 31, 2012. The decrease in current portion of long-term loans is due to the payments of notes and convertible debenture and the changes in terms at the UTA loans.
 
On December 17, 2012, our wholly-owned subsidiary Enertec Electronics entered into a loan agreement with an Israeli bank, pursuant to which Enertec Electronics obtained a loan for 9,529,000 NIS (approximately $2,745,000), This loan is a long-term loan that is to be repaid within five years. Approximately $2,500,000 of the proceeds of this  loan were used to repay certain of our debt to UTA under that certain Amended and Restated Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement described above. The long-term loan initially bears annual interest at a rate of prime plus 2.75% per annual,. The loan is primarily secured by a pledge of the Micronet shares we hold through Enertec, which were previously pledged to UTA but were released in connection with the partial repayment. In addition, our other subsidiaries provided a guarantee of Enertec Electronic’s obligations under the loan documents.
 
As of March 18, 2014 , the loan balance of Enertec Electronics as mentioned above was reduced to approximately to 7.2  NIS (approximately $2 million).
 
Enertec Systems has covenanted under certain bank loans, amongst other things, that (i) its shareholders’ equity according to its financial statements will not be below 17,000,000 NIS, and (ii) its shareholders’ equity will not be lower than 30% of the total assets on its balance sheet. Enertec Systems has met all of its bank covenants
 
In the second quarter of 2013, we closed an underwritten public offering of 1,863,000 shares of Common Stock, and warrants to purchase 931,500 shares of Common Stock, at an offering price of $5.00 per share and $0.01 per warrant respectively. The warrants have a per share exercise price of $6.25, are exercisable immediately, and expire on April 29, 2018. The gross proceeds to us, including the underwriter’s exercise of its over-allotment option, were $9,324,000 before deduction issuance costs amounted to $1,921,841 payable by us. The shares and warrants began trading on The NASDAQ Capital Market on April 24, 2013 under the symbols “MICT” and “MICTW,” respectively. The Company used a portion of the net proceeds received from this offering to purchase additional Micronet ordinary shares pursuant to certain of our call options and used a portion to repay part  of our debt  and for general corporate purposes.
 
Financing Needs
 
Although we currently do not have any material commitments for capital expenditures, we expect our capital requirements to increase over the next several years as we continue to support the organic and non-organic growth of our business. Among other activities, we plan to develop, manufacture and market larger-scale solutions, support our growing manufacturing and finance needs, continue the development and testing of our suite of products and systems, increase management, marketing and administration infrastructure, and embark on developing in-house business capabilities and facilities. Our future liquidity and capital funding requirements will depend on numerous factors, including, but not limited to (i) the levels and costs of our research and development initiatives, (ii) the cost of hiring and training additional highly skilled professionals (mainly engineers and technicians), qualified stronger management, and sales and marketing personnel to promote our products, and (iii) the cost and timing of the expansion of our development, manufacturing and marketing efforts.
 
 
30

 
 
Based on our current business plan, we anticipate that our existing cash balances and cash generated from future sales will be sufficient to permit us to conduct our operations and to carry out our contemplated business plans for the next twelve months. Currently, the only external sources of liquidity are our banks, and we may seek additional financing from them or through securities offerings to expand our operations, use new capital to develop new products, enhance existing products or respond to competitive pressures. However, we may undertake additional debt or equity financings to better enable us to grow and meet our future operating and capital requirements. There is no assurance that we will be able to consummate such offerings on favorable terms or at all.
 
Results of Operations
 
 Year Ended December 31, 2013 Compared to Year Ended December 31, 2012

Revenues

Revenues for the year ended December 31, 2013 were $35,571,000 as compared to $17,788,000 for the year ended December 31, 2012. These revenues represent an increase of $17,783,000, or 100% in the Company's revenues for the year 2013. The increase is attributed to the following: (i) Enertec Systems revenues contributed $869,000 which reflects a  revenues increase in its 2013 results in comparison to its 2012 revenues (ii) the reminder of the increase of $16,914,000 is attributed to Micronet's 2013  yearly revenues which were fully consolidated to the Company's revenues  during 2013, in comparison to the Micronet revenues during 2012 which were partially consolidated in the company's 2012 financial statement (4 months period only). Such partial consolidation was included since the Company closed the acquisition of the Micronet Controlling shares only in September 2012.
 
Cost of revenues increased by $8,508,000, to $22,298,000 for the year ended December 31, 2013 as compared to $13,790,000 for the year ended December 31, 2012. The increase in gross profit is primarily due to consolidating Micronet’s financial results following the Acquisition in September 2012.
 
 
31

 
 
Gross profit as a percentage of sales was 37% for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to 22% for the year ended December 31, 2012, respectively. As explained above, the increase in gross profit is primarily attributable to the Acquisition in September 2012.

Selling and Marketing

Selling and marketing costs are part of operating expenses. Selling and marketing costs for the year ended December 31, 2013 were $1,170,000, as compared to $752,000 for the year ended December 31, 2012. This represents an increase of $418,000, or 56% for the year 2013. The increase is attributed to the following: (i) Enertec Systems selling and marketing costs contributed $28,000 which reflects a decrease  in 2013 costs (ii) the reminder of the increase in the sum of $446,000 is attributed to Micronet's 2013  yearly costs which were fully consolidated to the Company's costs  during 2013, in comparison to the Micronet costs during 2012 which were partially consolidated in the company's 2012 financial statement (4 months period only). Such partial consolidation was included since the Company closed the acquisition of the Micronet Controlling shares only in September 2012.  

General and Administrative

General and administrative costs are part of operating expenses. General and administrative costs for the year ended December 31, 2013 were $4,179,000 as compared to $2,243,000 for the year ended December 31, 2012. This represents an increase of $1,936,000, or 86%, for the year ended December 31, 2013. The increase is primarily attributed to Micronet which contributed 58% of the increase, and the remainder is attributed to Enertec.

Research and Development Costs

Research and development costs are part of operating expenses. Research and development costs for the year ended December 31, 2013 were $2,675,000 compared to $777,000 for the year ended December 31, 2012, respectively. This represents an increase of $1,898,000, or 244% for the year ended December 31, 2013. The increase in R&D is primarily due to the operations of Micronet, which accounted for $ $2,256,000 of the increase in research and development costs for the year ended December 31, 2013, as compared with $559,000 for the year ended December 31, 2012 as Micronet’s operations were partially included in our financial statements during the equivalent periods in 2012. Since Micronet invests a larger portion of its income in R&D as compared to Enertec Systems, management believes the increase in the R&D costs and percentage of revenue will continue in the near future. Research and development costs in Micronet's Ltd increased from $1,614,000 for the year ended December 31, 2012 to $2,256,000 for the year ended December 31, 2013. This represents an increase of 40% in research and development costs.
 
Finance Expenses, net

Financial expenses net, for the year ended December 31, 2013 were $2,293,000 compared to income of $89,000, for the year ended December 31, 2012. This represents an increase of $2,382,000, or 267%, for the year ended December 31, 2013. The increase in interest expenses in the year ended December 31, 2013 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2012 was primarily due to the change in 2013 in the fair value of the put and call options and amortization of UTA’s note discount as detailed in non-GAAP note.

Net Income (Loss) from operation

Our net income from operation for the year ended December 31, 2013 was $4,592,000 compared to an operation loss of $325,000 for the year ended December 31, 2012. The increase of $4,917,000 is mainly a result of acquisition of Micronet and increase in gross margin.

 
32

 

Net Income (loss)

Our net loss attributable to Micronet Enertec was $(495,000) in the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to net income attributable to Micronet Enertec of $5,417,000 in the year ended December 31, 2012. This represents a decrease in net income of $5,912,000 as compared with the year ended December 31, 2012. The increase in net loss was primarily to a gain on bargain purchase of Micronet pursuant the Acquisition last year.

The purchase consideration was allocated to the tangible assets and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values on the acquisition date. The fair value assigned to identifiable intangible assets acquired has been determined by using valuation methods that discount expected future cash flows to present value using estimates and assumptions determined by management. The Company determined that the fair values of net assets acquired exceeded the purchase price by $4,623,000 which was recorded as a bargain purchase gain, and is shown as separate non-operating income. The gain is not taxable income for tax purposes. The gain was largely determined by the following reasons:
 
 
·
Micronet is a publicly-traded company on the TASE. The purchase price takes into consideration the average price per Micronet share for the 12-month period prior to the Closing Date. The average price per Micronet share for the 12-month period prior to the Closing Date was approximately 2.2 NIS, whereas the purchase price was 2.1 NIS.
 
 
·
In addition to the cash consideration paid in the transaction described above, additional consideration for the Sellers is attributable to their expectation that the new controlling shareholders of Micronet together with the management team, will be able to use their experience, abilities and expertise to increase Micronet’s value and thereby increase the value of the remaining shares held by the Sellers. Accordingly, the transaction was structured so that the Sellers continue to be stockholders of Micronet. The Sellers held as of the date of the closing of the Acquisition approximately 30% of the Micronet's outstanding share capital following the Acquisition.
 
 
·
Approximately 40% of the gain is created following the technical measurement of non-controlling interest at fair value which is much lower than the non-controlling interests’ proportionate share of identifiable net assets.
 
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
 
We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect that is material to investors on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.
 
Critical Accounting Policies
 
Principles of consolidation.  The consolidated financial statements include the Company’s and its subsidiaries financial statements. Control is the power to govern the financial and operating policies of an entity so as to obtain benefits from its operating activities. In assessing control legal and contractual rights are taken into account. The consolidated financial statements of subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date that control is achieved until the date that control ceases. Intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated upon consolidation.
 
Accounts receivable and allowances for doubtful accounts.  Our trade receivables include amounts due from customers. We perform ongoing credit evaluations of our customers’ financial condition and we require collateral as deemed necessary. We maintain allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of our customers to make payments. In judging the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts, we consider multiple factors including the aging of our receivables, historical bad debt experience and the general economic environment. Management applies considerable judgment in assessing the realization of receivables, including assessing the probability of collection and the current creditworthiness of each customer. If the financial condition of our customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, additional allowances may be required.
 
 
33

 
 
Impairment of long-lived assets.  In accordance with ASC 360-10, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-lived Assets”, long-lived assets, such as property, plant and equipment and purchased intangibles subject to amortization are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying value of an asset to estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying value of an asset exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized in the amount by which the carrying value of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset.
 
Revenue recognition.  The Company’s subsidiary Enertec Systems enters into long-term fixed-price contracts with customers to manufacture test systems, simulators, and airborne applications. Revenue on these long-term fixed-price contracts is recognized under the percentage-of-cost method. In using the percentage of completion method, revenues are generally recorded based on the percentage of cost incurred to date on a contract relative to the estimated total expected contract cost. Management uses historical experience, project plans and an assessment of the risks and uncertainties inherent in the arrangement to establish the total estimated costs. The percentage of completion is established by the costs incurred to date as a percentage of the estimated total costs of each contract (cost-to-cost method). Contract costs include all direct material and labor costs. The Company begins recognizing revenue on a project when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, recoverability is probable, and project costs are incurred. The Company recognizes contract losses, if any, in the period in which they first became evident.
 
Revenues from the sales of MRM (mobile resource management) products are recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the fee payable by the customer is fixed and determinable; and collection of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured. The title and risk of loss passes to the customer, delivery has occurred and acceptance is satisfied once the product leaves the Company premises.
 
Income taxes.  Deferred taxes and liabilities are determined utilizing the “asset and liability” method, whereby deferred tax asset and liability account balances are determined based on 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. The Company provides a valuation allowance, when it is more likely than not that deferred tax assets will not be realized in the foreseeable future. Deferred tax liabilities and assets are classified as current or non-current based on the expected reversal dates.
 
The Company adopted ASC Topic 740-10-05, Income Tax, which provides guidance for recognizing and measuring uncertain tax positions, and prescribes a threshold condition that a tax position must meet for any of the benefits of the uncertain tax position to be recognized in the financial statements. It also provides accounting guidance on de-recognition, classification and disclosure of these uncertain tax positions. The Company’s policy on classification of all interest and penalties related to unrecognized income tax positions, if any, is to present them as a component of income tax expense.
 
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
 
In July 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued guidance that requires that a non-recognized tax benefit be presented in the financial statements as a reduction to a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss carry forward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carry forward. This net presentation is required unless a net operating loss carry forward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carry forward is not available at the reporting date or the tax law of the jurisdiction does not require, and the entity does not intend to use, the deferred tax asset to settle any additional income tax that would result from the disallowance of the unrecognized tax benefit. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2013, with early adoption permitted. The Company is assessing whether the adoption of this standard will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
 
In March 2013, the FASB issued further guidance on accounting for the release of a cumulative translation adjustment into net income when a parent company either sells a part or all of its investment in a foreign entity or no longer holds a controlling financial interest in a subsidiary or group of assets and provides guidance for the acquisition in stages of a controlling interest in a foreign entity. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2013, with early adoption permitted. The Company believes that the adoption of this standard will not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.
 
As of December 31, 2013, approximately 62% of our accounts receivables are in NIS and 36% of our accounts receivables are in USD while approximately 89% of our accounts payables are in NIS and 11% of our accounts payables are in are in USD. As a result of this segmentation, our business is exposed to fluctuations in foreign exchange rates which may have a negative effect on our results. For further information, see “Risk Factors -- Our financial results may be negatively affected by foreign exchange rate fluctuations”, which appears elsewhere in this Annual Report.
 
Some of the loans assumed by the Company include loans which are based on a prime interest and are therefore not fixed rates loans. As a result, a change in the interest rates applicable to our loans may reflect a market risk exposure since our financial results may be negatively affected as a result of such changes in interest rate.

We conducted an evaluation under the supervision of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer (our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, respectively), regarding the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act) as of December 31, 2013. Based on the aforementioned evaluation, management has concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of December 31, 2013.
 
Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
 
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Our internal control over financial reporting has been designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
 
Our internal control over financial reporting includes policies and procedures that pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect transactions and dispositions of our assets; provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and that receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorization of our management and directors; and provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on our financial statements.
 
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting at December 31, 2013. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Tread way Commission (COSO) in Internal Control—Integrated Framework (1992). Based on that assessment under those criteria, management has determined that, at December 31, 2013, our internal control over financial reporting was effective.
 
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
 
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2013 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

We may not be able to find an appropriate replacement for any of our key personnel. Any loss or interruption of our key personnel’s services could adversely affect our ability to implement our business plan. It could also result in our failure to create and maintain relationships with strategic partners that are critical to our success. We do not presently maintain key-man life insurance policies on any of our officers.

Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence. 
 
Certain Relationships and Related Transactions                                                                                     

Our management believes the terms of each of the below transactions are at least as favorable as could be obtained from unrelated third parties.

Mr. Lucatz was paid through a consulting agreement effective as of August 2009, and amended as of October 2011, that we entered into with DLC (our controlling shareholder which is controlled by Mr. Lucatz). Under the consulting agreement, we paid DLC through September 2011 management fees of NIS 50,000 (approximately $14,000) on a monthly basis, and from October 2011 through October 2012 covered other expenses in a sum of NIS 10,000 (approximately $3,000) per month. As of October 1, 2011, the costs of the consulting fee and/or salary were adjusted and increased by NIS 10,000 and the monthly salary/consulting management fee was NIS 60,000 (approximately $17,000).

In November 2012, entities controlled by Mr. Lucatz reached agreements with each of Micronet and the Company for the provision of management and consulting services to Micronet and the Company, respectively. On November 7, 2012, the board of directors and the audit committee of the board of Micronet approved the entry into a management and consulting services agreement with DLC, which provides that effective November 1, 2012 Mr. Lucatz will devote 60% of his time to Micronet matters for the three year term of the agreement and that Micronet will pay the entities controlled by Mr. Lucatz management fees of NIS 65,000 (approximately $16,667) on a monthly basis, and cover other monthly expenses. Such agreement was further subject to the approval of Micronet’s shareholders, which was obtained at a special meeting held on January 30, 2013 for that purpose and went into effect following its execution on February 8, 2013. On November 26, 2012, DLC entered into a 36-month management and consulting services agreement with the Company, effective November 1, 2012, which provides that we will pay the entities controlled by Mr. Lucatz: (i) management fees of $13,333 on a monthly basis, and cover other monthly expenses, (ii) an annual bonus of 3% of the amount by which the annual EBITDA for such year exceeds the average annual EBITDA for 2011 and 2010, and (iii) a one-time bonus of 0.5% of the purchase price of any acquisition or capital raising transaction, excluding only the 2013 public Offering, completed by us during the term of the agreement.

Please see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” for a description of the transactions between the Company and UTA that occurred after UTA became the beneficial owner of more than five percent of our common stock.

 REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
 
To The Board of Directors and Stockholders of Micronet Enertec Technologies, Inc.
 
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Micronet Enertec Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”) and its subsidiaries as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, stockholders' equity and cash flows for the years then ended.. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.
 
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
 
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company and its subsidiaries as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the two years period ended December 31, 2013, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

NOTE 1 — DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
 
Overview
 
Micronet Enertec Technologies, Inc., a U.S. based Delaware Corporation formed in Delaware on January 31, 2002. On March 14, 2013 we changed our corporate name from Lapis Technologies, Inc. to Micronet Enertec Technologies, Inc. (“we,” “Micronet Enertec” or “the Company”).

We operate through two Israel-based companies, Enertec Systems 2001 Ltd, or Enertec, our wholly-owned subsidiary, and Micronet Ltd, in which we hold 53.19% as of December 31, 2013 and controlled by us.
 
Micronet is a publicly traded company on the Tel Aviv stock exchange and operates in the growing commercial Mobile Resource Management, or MRM market. Micronet designs, develops, manufactures and sells rugged mobile computing devices that provide fleet operators and field workforces with computing solutions in challenging work environments. Micronet’s vehicle cabin installed and portable tablets increase workforce productivity and enhance corporate efficiency by offering computing power and communication capabilities that provide fleet operators with visibility into vehicle location, fuel usage, speed and mileage. Micronet’s customers consist primarily of application service providers, or ASPs, and solution providers specializing in the MRM market.
 
Enertec operates in the Defense and Aerospace markets and designs, develops, manufactures and supplies various customized military computer-based systems, simulators, automatic test equipment and electronic instruments. Enertec’s solutions and systems are designed according to major aerospace integrators’ requirements and are integrated by them into critical systems such as command and control, missile fire control, maintenance of military aircraft and missiles for use by the Israeli Air Force and Navy and by foreign defense entities.
 
Micronet Acquisition
 
On September 7, 2012, we, through our wholly-owned subsidiary Enertec Electronics Ltd., an Israeli corporation (“Enertec Electronics”), acquired from three Israeli individuals who collectively were the former controlling shareholders of Micronet (the “Sellers”), 47.5% of the issued and outstanding shares of Micronet (to the date of the closing) Acquisition pursuant to a stock purchase agreement (the “Agreement”). Pursuant to a partial exercise of certain options granted to us under the Agreement, we currently own approximately 52.26% of the outstanding ordinary shares of Micronet. As a result of the consummation of the Micronet acquisition (the “Acquisition”), we have become the largest shareholder of Micronet and the legal controlling entity due to our ability to nominate the majority of the members of Micronet’s board of directors, which gives us control of Micronet’s operations.

Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement we acquired 8,256,000 ordinary shares of Micronet for 17.3 million NIS (approximately $4.3 million), divided pro rata among Sellers. The acquisition was financed based partly on our own resources and partly by means of a loan from UTA Capital (see reference to note 10). The Agreement also includes two call options granted to Micronet Enertec and a put option granted to Sellers. Pursuant to the initial call option, we are entitled to purchase from the Sellers, during the period beginning on the closing of the transaction and for 11 months thereafter, up to additional 996,000 ordinary shares of Micronet (5.49% of Micronet’s issued and outstanding shares) for a price of 2.1 NIS (approximately $0.605 per share at December 31, 2013) per share as adjusted based on the Israeli customers index. As further set hereunder, we have exercised in full the initial call option for the purchase of 996,000 ordinary shares of Micronet.  Under the second call option, we are entitled to purchase from the Sellers up to additional 1,200,000 ordinary shares of Micronet.
 
The second call option is in effect for the period that begins on the one-year anniversary of the closing of the transaction and ends on the 21-month anniversary of the closing of the transaction (6.62% of Micronet’s issued and outstanding shares) for a price of 2.1 NIS per share as adjusted based on the Israeli customers index (reflecting $0.605 per share at December 31, 2013) plus 25% of Micronet’s 2012 gross profit per share based on Micronet’s issued and outstanding shares as of December 31, 2012, up to maximum of 18,850,000 shares, but in any event such price per share shall not exceed 3 NIS ($0.864 per share at December 31, 2013). Pursuant to the put option granted to Sellers, Sellers can cause the sale of up to an additional 1,000,002 ordinary shares constituting 5.73% of Micronet’s issued and outstanding shares for a price of 2.2 NIS per share ($0.633 per share at December 31, 2013) as adjusted based on the Israeli customers index. The put option is in effect for the period that begins on the one-year anniversary of the closing of the transaction and ends on the 22-month anniversary of the closing of the transaction.  Micronet’s results of operations and balance sheet have been included in our consolidated reports since September 7, 2012 (the “Closing Date”). Acquisition costs amounting to $65 were charged to general and administrative expenses.

NOTE 1 — DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS - (continued)

Micronet Acquisition- (continued)
 
The purchase consideration was allocated to the tangible assets and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values on the acquisition date. The fair value assigned to identifiable intangible assets acquired has been determined by using valuation methods that discount expected future cash flows to present value using estimates and assumptions determined by management. The Company determined that the fair values of net assets acquired exceeded the purchase price by $4,623, which was recorded as a bargain purchase gain, and is shown as separate non-operating income. The gain is not taxable income for tax purposes. The gain was largely determined by the following reasons:
 
 
Micronet is a publicly-traded company on the TASE. The purchase price takes into consideration the average price per Micronet share for the 12-month period prior to the Closing Date. The average price per Micronet share for the 12-month period prior to the Closing Date was approximately 2.2 NIS, whereas the purchase price was 2.1 NIS.
 
 
In addition to the cash consideration paid in the transaction described above, additional consideration for the Sellers is attributable to their expectation that the new controlling shareholders of Micronet together with the management team, will be able to use their experience, abilities and expertise to increase Micronet’s value and thereby increase the value of the remaining shares held by the Sellers. Accordingly, the transaction was structured so that the Sellers continue to be stockholders of Micronet. The Sellers held as of the date of the closing of the Acquisition approximately 30% of the Micronet's outstanding share capital following the Acquisition.
 
 
Approximately 40% of the gain is created following the technical measurement of non-controlling interest at fair value which is much lower than the non-controlling interests’ proportionate share of identifiable net assets.
 
Purchased identifiable intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over their respective useful lives. The table set forth below summarizes the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed and resulting gain on bargain purchase

NOTE 1 — DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS - (continued)

Micronet Acquisition- (continued)

The consideration of the acquisition was attributed to net assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their fair value. Upon a purchase price allocation, an amount of $330 was allocated to technology and to be amortized over a 5-year period, an amount of $918 was allocated to estimated fair value of the customers relation intangible assets to be amortized over a 3-year period, and an amount of $712 was allocated to backlog which is being amortized over its estimated useful life-up to 0.5 years. In addition, the value of employees stock option was recorded at fair value upon acquisition and amounted to $635, as these employees stock options are fully vested they were classified upon acquisition as part of the non-controlling interest. The call and put options between the Company and the Sellers were measured at fair value as part of the acquisition and amounted to $404 and $163 respectively. They will be marked to market each reporting period. An amount of $1,171 was allocated to the fair value of inventory that will be realized in up to 4 months. The non-controlling interests were calculated based on the market price of Micronet’s share at the acquisition date.  The contribution of Micronet’s results to our consolidated revenue net income was $7,341 and loss of $181, respectively for the year ended December 31, 2012.

On November 14, 2012 and on May 28, 2013, the Company, via Enertec Electronics, exercised its right pursuant to the initial call option granted under the Agreement and acquired for a total consideration of $ 558  additional 996,000 ordinary shares of Micronet increasing our ownership, as a result thereof,  to 51% of the issued and outstanding shares of Micronet.On August 18, 2013 the Company purchased additional 600,000 ordinary shares of Micronet in consideration of $ 676. As a result, the company increased its holdings to 54.3% of the issued and outstanding shares of Micronet which were thereafter diluted as a result of the exercise of certain options by Micronet officers. We currently own approximately 52% of the issued and outstanding shares of Micronet.
 
The unaudited pro forma financial information in the table below summarizes the combined results of our operations and those of Micronet for the periods shown as though the acquisition of Micronet occurred as of the beginning of fiscal year 2011. The pro forma financial information for the periods presented includes the business combination accounting effects of the acquisition, including amortization charges from acquired intangible assets. The pro forma financial information as presented below is for informational purposes only, is subject to a number of estimates, assumptions and other uncertainties, and is not indicative of the results of operations that would have been achieved if the acquisition and divestiture had taken place at January 1, 2011.

NOTE 2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
Basis of Presentation
 
The accompanying consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“US GAAP”).
 
The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant inter-company transactions and balances among the Company and its subsidiaries are eliminated upon consolidation.
 
Functional Currency
 
The functional currency of Micronet Enertec is the U.S. dollar. The functional currency of certain subsidiaries is their local currency. The financial statements of those companies are included in consolidation, based on translation into U.S. dollars. Assets and liabilities are translated at year-end exchange rates, while revenues and expenses are translated at monthly average exchange rates during the year. Differences resulting from translation are presented in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income.
 
Use of Estimate
 
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
Reclassifications
 
Certain comparative figures have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.
 
Principles of Consolidation
 
The consolidated financial statements comprise the Company and its subsidiaries. Control is the power to govern the financial and operating policies of an entity so as to obtain benefits from its operating activities. In assessing control, legal and contractual rights, are taken into account. The consolidated financial statements of subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date that control is achieved until the date that control is ceased. Intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated upon consolidation.
 
Cash and Cash Equivalents
 
Cash equivalents are considered by the Company to be highly-liquid investments, including inter-alia, short-term deposits with banks, of which do not exceed maturities of three months at the time of deposit and which are not restricted.

NOTE 2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - (continued)

Investments in Marketable Securities
 
Management determines the appropriate classification of its investments at the time of purchase and reevaluates such determinations at each balance sheet date. Investments in marketable securities are classified as “trading,” and unrealized gains or losses are reported in the statement of operations.
 
Revenue Recognition
 
The Company’s subsidiary Enertec Systems 2001 LTD mainly enters into long-term fixed-price contracts with customers to manufacture test systems, simulators, and airborne applications. Revenues on these long-term fixed-price contracts are recognized under the percentage-of-completion method. In using the percentage of completion method, revenues are generally recorded based on the percentage of cost incurred to date on a contract relative to the estimated total expected contract cost. Management uses historical experience, project plans and an assessment of the risks and uncertainties inherent in the arrangement to establish the total estimated costs. The percentage of completion is established by the costs incurred to date as a percentage of the estimated total costs of each contract (cost-to-cost method). Contract costs include all direct material and labor costs. The Company recognizes revenues

on a project when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, recoverability is probable, and project costs are incurred. The Company recognizes contract losses, if any, in the period in which they first became evident. As of December 31, 2013 approximately $ 4.3 million (on December 31, 2012: $3.5 million) of the accounts receivable balance was unbilled due to the customer’s payment terms.
 
Revenues from the sales of MRM (mobile resource management) products are recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; delivery has occurred, fee to its customer is fixed and determinable; and collection of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured. The title and risk of loss passes to the customer, delivery is occurred and acceptance is satisfied as the product leaves the Company premises.
 
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
 
The Company establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts to ensure trade and financing receivables are not overstated due to uncollectability. The allowance for doubtful accounts was based on specific receivables, which their collection, in the opinion of Company’s management, is in doubt. Trade receivables are charged off in the period in which they are deemed to be uncollectible.
 
Inventories
 
Inventories of raw materials are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out basis) or realizable value. Cost of work in process comprise direct materials, direct production costs and an allocation of production overheads based on normal operating capacity.
 
Property and Equipment
 
Property and equipment are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is calculated by the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives. Annual rates of depreciation are as follows:
 
Leasehold improvements
 
6-8 years
Machinery and equipment
 
10 years
Furniture and fixtures
 
14 years
Transportation equipment

NOTE 2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - (continued)

Stock Based Compensation
 
The Company account for stock based compensation under the fair market value method under which compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the value of the award and is recognized over the service period, which is usually the vesting period. For stock options, fair value is determined using an option-pricing model that takes into account the stock price at the grant date, the exercise price, the expected life of the option, the volatility of the underlying stock, the expected dividends on it, and the risk-free interest rate over the expected life of the option. Micronet issued an immaterial number of stock options during 2012. Stock based compensation for the year ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 were immaterial.
 
Common Stock Purchase Warrants and Other Derivative Financial Instruments
 
In accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) ASC Topic 815 “Derivative and Hedging” (ASC 815-40-25), the Company determined that the warrants issued to UTA (ratchet down of exercise price based upon lower exercise price in future offerings) are not indexed to the Company’s own stock and therefore should be recorded as a derivative financial liability pursuant to ASC 815-40-25. 
 
On November 6, 2012, these warrants were classified to equity due to changes in their terms (see also note 10).
 
Shipping and Handling Costs
 
Shipping and handling costs, which amounted to $295 and $44 for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, are included in selling and marketing expenses.
 
Research and Development Costs
 
Research and development costs are charged to statements of income as incurred.
 
Advertising Costs
 
The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred. Advertising costs for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 were $23 and $59, respectively.
 
Earnings per Share
 
Earnings (loss) per share (“EPS”) were computed in accordance with the FASB ASC Topic 260, “Earnings Per Share” (ASC 260). ASC 260 requires the presentation of both basic and diluted EPS.
 
Basic net earnings per share is computed based on the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during each year. Diluted earnings per share is computed based on the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during each year, plus dilutive potential ordinary shares considered outstanding during the year derived from potential exercise of warrants.
 
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
 
The Company evaluates property and equipment and purchased intangible assets with finite lives for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. The Company assesses the recoverability of the assets based on the undiscounted future cash flow and recognizes an impairment loss when the estimated undiscounted future cash flow expected to result from the use of the asset plus the net proceeds expected from disposition of the asset, if any, are less than the carrying value of the asset. When the Company identifies an impairment, it reduces the carrying amount of the asset to its estimated fair value based on a discounted cash flow approach or, when available and appropriate, to comparable market values. During the years ending December 31, 2013, and 2012 no indicators of impairment have been identified.
 
 
F - 16

 

NOTE 2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - (continued)

Intangible assets
 
Intangible assets have been recorded as a result of Micronet’s acquisition. Intangible assets that are not considered to have an indefinite useful life are amortized using the straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. The carrying amount of these assets is reviewed whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of these assets is measured by comparison of the carrying amount of the asset to the future undiscounted cash flows the assets is expected to generate. If the asset is considered to be impaired, the amount of any impairment is measured as the difference between the carrying value and the fair value of the impaired asset.
 
Comprehensive Income
 
ASC 220-10, “Reporting Comprehensive Income,” requires the Company to report in its consolidated financial statements, in addition to its net income, comprehensive income (loss), which includes all changes in equity during a period from non-owner sources including, as applicable, foreign currency items, and other items.
 
The Company’s comprehensive income for all periods presented is related to the effect of foreign translation losses.
 
Income Taxes
 
Deferred taxes are determined utilizing the “asset and liability” method, whereby deferred tax asset and liability account balances are determined based on differences between financial reporting and the tax bases 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. The Company provides a valuation allowance, when it’s more likely than not that deferred tax assets will not be realized in the foreseeable future. Deferred tax liabilities and assets are classified as current or non-current based on the expected reversal dates of the specific temporary differences.
 
The Company applied FASB ASC Topic 740-10-05, “Income Taxes” which provides guidance for recognizing and measuring uncertain tax positions and prescribes a threshold condition that a tax position must meet for any of the benefits of the uncertain tax position to be recognized in the financial statements. It also provides accounting guidance on derecognizing, classification and disclosure of these uncertain tax positions. The Company’s policy on classification of all interest and penalties related to unrecognized income tax positions, if any, is to present them as a component of income tax expense.
 
Financial Instruments
 
 
1.
Concentration of credit risks:
 
Financial instruments that have the potential to expose the Company to credit risks are mainly cash and cash equivalents, bank deposit accounts, marketable securities and trade receivables.
 
The Company holds cash and cash equivalents, and deposit accounts at large banks in Israel, thereby substantially reducing the risk of loss.

With respect to trade receivables, the risk is limited due to the geographically spreading, nature and size of the entities that constitute the Company’s customer base. The Company assesses the financial position of its customers prior to the engagement with them.
 
The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers for the purpose of determining the appropriate allowance for doubtful accounts and generally does not require collateral. An appropriate allowance for doubtful accounts is included in the accounts.

Financial Instruments- (continued)
 
 
2.
Fair value measurement:
 
The Company measures fair value and discloses fair value measurements for financial and non-financial assets and liabilities. Fair value is based on the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.
 
The accounting standard establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes observable and unobservable inputs used to measure fair value into three broad levels, which are described below:
 
 
Level 1:
Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for assets or liabilities. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to Level 1 inputs.
 
 
Level 2:
Observable prices that are based on inputs not quoted on active markets, but corroborated by market data.
 
 
Level 3:
Unobservable inputs are used when little or no market data is available. The fair value hierarchy gives the lowest priority to Level 3 inputs.
 
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 and considers counterparty credit risk in its assessment of fair value.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
 
In July 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued guidance that requires that a non-recognized tax benefit be presented 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. This net presentation is required unless a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward is not available at the reporting date or the tax law of the jurisdiction does not require, and the entity does not intend to use, the deferred tax asset to settle any additional income tax that would result from the disallowance of the unrecognized tax benefit. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2013, with early adoption permitted. The Company is assessing whether the adoption of this standard will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
 
In March 2013, the FASB issued further guidance on accounting for the release of a cumulative translation adjustment into net income when a parent company either sells a part or all of its investment in a foreign entity or no longer holds a controlling financial interest in a subsidiary or group of assets and provides guidance for the acquisition in stages of a controlling interest in a foreign entity. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2013, with early adoption permitted. The Company believes that the adoption of this standard will not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 9 — UTA CAPITAL LLC TRANSACTION

On July 12, 2011, the Company entered into a Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement with UTA Capital LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“UTA”), (the “Purchase Agreement,” and as amended by that certain letter agreement dated as of August 16, 2011, and as further amended by that certain Second Amendment to Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement dated as of August 31, 2011 and that certain Third Amendment to Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement dated as of November 24, 2011, the “Original Agreement”) pursuant to which UTA agreed to provide financing to Micronet Enertec on a secured basis.
 
The initial closing (the “Initial Closing”) of the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement took place on September 1, 2011.  In connection therewith, the Company issued to UTA a secured promissory note in the principal amount of $3,000 that matures on March 1, 2014 (the “First Note”). The First Note bears interest at a rate of 8% per annum and the principal was due to be repaid in three equal principal payments of $1,000 on each of September 1, 2012, September 1, 2013 and March 1, 2014. Net proceeds from the sale of the First Note were to be used as working capital for the Company and its subsidiaries.  In addition, the Company issued to UTA a warrant (the “First Warrant”) to purchase up to 476,113 shares of the Company’s Common Stock at an exercise price initially equal to $1.00 per share, representing 12% of the Company’s outstanding shares of Common Stock, on a fully diluted basis.  The First Warrant became exercisable on March 1, 2012 and was exercised in full in March 2013. The Company agreed to certain customary covenants in connection with the issuance of the First Warrant.
 
At the issuance date of the First Warrant, the Company recorded the fair value of the First Warrant issued with the First Note as a derivative liability of $828 using the Black–Scholes option pricing model with a corresponding increase in debt discount as the Company determined that warrants are not indexed to the Company’s Common Stock pursuant to FASB ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging (ASC 815-40-25). Debt discount is being amortized over the term of the loan to the stated maturity date and is presented as a component of interest expense in the accompanying statements of operations. Amortization of the debt discount for the year ended December 31, 2013 was $386, and is included as a component of interest expense.
 
Amended and Restated Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement
 
In connection with the Acquisition, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement (the “Amended Agreement”) with UTA dated September 7, 2012.  The Amended Agreement included mainly changes to the collateral obligations to secure the notes and the postponement of the first installment from September 2012 to December 2012.

NOTE 9 — UTA CAPITAL LLC TRANSACTION - (continued)

Second Closing
 
On September 7, 2012, the Company issued to UTA, pursuant to the Amended Agreement: (i) the Second  Note in the principal amount of $3,000, with an initial interest rate equal to 8% per annum, $1,500 of such amount payable on May 15, 2013, and the remaining balance due at the maturity date of April 1, 2014, and (ii) the Second Warrant entitling UTA to purchase from the Company up to a total of 300,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock at an exercise price initially equal to $1.30 per share, first exercisable during a period beginning six months from September 7, 2012, and ending 66 months from September 7, 2012. At the issuance date, the Company recorded the fair value of the Second Warrant issued with the $3,000 Note as a derivative liability amounting to $872 using the Black–Scholes option pricing model with a corresponding increase in debt discount as the Company determined that warrants (ratchet down of exercise price based upon lower exercise price in future offerings) are not indexed to the Company’s Common Stock pursuant to FASB ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging (ASC 815-40-25). Debt discount is being amortized over the term of the loan to the stated maturity date and is presented as a component of interest expense in the accompanying statements of operations. Amortization of the debt discount for the year ended December 31, 2013 was $720, and is included as a component of interest expense.
 
On November 6, 2012 the Company and UTA amended the terms of the Warrants pursuant to which UTA waived its right to anti-dilution protection in case the Company issued additional shares of Common Stock, while the Company waived certain upward exercise price adjustment provisions included in the Warrants. Following this amendment, the Warrants were classified to equity in the amount of $1,105.
 
On January 28, 2013, the Company and UTA amended the terms of the Amended Agreement and the First Note and Second Note to provide that any net proceeds of any equity financing by us or any of our subsidiaries will be applied as follows: (x) the first $4,000 may be retained by us or applied to reduce other obligations of ours or any of our subsidiaries, and (y) 75% of the excess of such net proceeds over $4,000 may be retained by us or applied to reduce other obligations of ours or any of our subsidiaries, and the remaining 25% shall be applied (A) first to the repayment of the First Note and (B) second, to the extent any proceeds remain, to the repayment of the Second Note.  The Company and UTA also agreed upon the application of our December 17, 2012 prepayment of $2,500 owed to UTA and the release of certain collateral in connection therewith. In consideration for the amendments and releases the Company agreed to pay UTA $480 in cash or a combination of cash and shares of the Company's Common Stock. This amount was classified following ASC 470-50 as a liability and there is a discount on the note.
 
On March 8, 2013, UTA fully exercised the Warrants and the Company issued an aggregate of 726,746 shares of Common Stock to UTA upon such exercise, which represented approximately 18.3% of the Company’s outstanding Common Stock as of March 14, 2013. The First Warrant, to purchase 476,113 shares of Common Stock, issued to UTA in September 2011, was exercised for the full amount of such shares at an aggregate exercise price of $476 based on an exercise price of $1.00 per share, which exercise price was paid by reducing the $480 liability the Company owed UTA for the amendments and releases described above. The Second Warrant, to purchase 300,000 shares of Common Stock, issued to UTA in September 2012, was exercised for 250,633 shares through a cashless exercise method.
 
In May 2013, the Company repaid certain of its debt to UTA pursuant to the First Note and Second Note in a total amount of $1,185. In June 2013, the Company repaid additional amounts of its debt to UTA pursuant to the First Note in a total amount of $282.

On December 30, 2013, the company  and UTA entered into an amendment (the “Second Amendment”) to the Amended and Restated Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement, dated as of August 31, 2012, as first amended on January 28, 2013. Pursuant to the Second Amendment, among other things, the maturity date of the second note executed between the Company and the Purchaser (the “Second Note”) was extended to January 10, 2015  and the maturity date of the first note executed between the Company and the Purchaser (the “First Note”) was set on December 30, 2013.  On December 30, 2013 the Company repaid to the Purchaser an amount of $1,032,163, including repayment in full of the First Note, and subsequently, the final payment of the principal amount under the Second Note, originally due in May 2014 to the Purchaser in the amount of $1,000 was postponed to January 10, 2015. The Company analyzed the accounting treatment of the notes as set forth in ASC 480-10 and classified them as liability.

NOTE 12 — PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES
 
 
A.
Basis of Taxation
 
The Company’s Israeli subsidiaries are governed by the tax laws of the state of Israel which has a general tax rate of 25%. The Company is entitled to various tax benefits in Israel by virtue of being granted the status of an “approved enterprise industrial company” as defined by the tax regulations. The benefits include, among other things, a reduced tax rate.
 
In December 2010 new legislation amending the Investment Law was adopted. This new legislation was effective as of January 1, 2011 and applies to preferred income produced or generated by a preferred company from the effective date. Under this new legislation, a uniform corporate tax rate applies to all qualifying income of certain Industrial Companies (“Preferred Enterprise”), as opposed to the previous law’s incentives, which were limited to income from Approved Enterprises and Privileged Enterprises during their benefits period. Under the new legislation, the uniform tax rates are as follows: 2011 and 2012 - 15%, 2013 and 2014 - 12.5% and in 2015 and thereafter - 12%.
 
In July, 2013 the law has been changed for which the regular Israeli tax rate commencing in 2014 will be 26.5% for Regular Entities and 16% for Preferred Enterprises. In 2012, the subsidiary  Micronet  decided to implement the new law and therefore commencing January 1, 2012 its qualifying income was subject to the Preferred Enterprise stataus.

Due to Stockholder
 
Mr. Lucatz was paid through a consulting agreement effective as of August 2009 that we entered into with D.L. Capital Ltd. (our controlling shareholder which is controlled by Mr. Lucatz). Under the consulting agreement, we paid D.L. Capital Ltd. through August 2011 management fees of 50 NIS (approximately $14) on a monthly basis, and covered other expenses in a sum of 10 NIS (approximately $3) per month. As of October 1, 2011, the costs of the consulting fee and/or salary were adjusted and increased by 10 NIS so the monthly salary/consulting management fee was 60 NIS (approximately $17).
 
In November 2012, entities controlled by Mr. Lucatz reached agreements with each of Micronet and the Company for the provision of management and consulting services to Micronet and the Company, respectively. On November 7, 2012, the board of directors and the audit committee of Micronet approved the entry into a management and consulting services agreement with D.L. Capital Ltd., which provides that effective November 1, 2012 Mr. Lucatz will devote 60% of his time to Micronet matters for the three year term of the agreement and that Micronet will pay the entities controlled by Mr. Lucatz management fees of NIS 65 (approximately $16) on a monthly basis, and cover other monthly expenses. Such agreement was further subject to the approval of Micronet’s shareholders, which was obtained at a special meeting held on January 30, 2013 for that purpose and went into effect following its execution on February 8, 2013. On November 26, 2012, D.L. Capital Ltd. entered into a management and consulting services agreement with the Company, effective November 1, 2012, which provides that we will pay the entities controlled by Mr. Lucatz: (i) management fees of $13 on a monthly basis, and cover other monthly expenses, (ii) an annual bonus of 3% of the amount by which the annual EBITDA for such year exceeds the average annual EBITDA for 2011 and 2010, and (iii) a one-time bonus of 0.5% of the purchase price of any acquisition or capital raising transaction, excluding the public offering contemplated at such time, completed by us during the term of the agreement.
