NOTE 1 — ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Description of Business

xG Technology, Inc. (the “Company”), a Delaware corporation, has developed a broad portfolio of innovative intellectual property designed to enhance wireless communications. The Company’s intellectual property is embedded in proprietary software algorithms designed to offer cognitive interference mitigation and spectrum access solutions to organizations in a wide variety of industries, including national defense and rural broadband, which represent the primary vertical markets that the Company is initially targeting.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements were prepared using generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X. Accordingly, these financial statements do not include all information or notes required by generally accepted accounting principles for annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements as filed on the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014. In the opinion of management, the unaudited condensed financial statements included herein contain all adjustments necessary to present fairly the Company's financial position as of September 30, 2015, the results of its operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, the results of its cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014. Such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 may not be indicative of results for the full year ending December 31, 2015.

Reverse Stock Split

On July 9, 2015, the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) approved a resolution to amend the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation and to authorize the Company to effect a reverse split of the Company’s outstanding common stock at a ratio of 1-for-10. On July 17, 2015, the Company effected a one-for-ten reverse stock split. Upon effectiveness of the reverse stock split, every 10 shares of outstanding common stock decreased to one share of common stock. Throughout this report the reverse split was retroactively applied to all periods presented.

Delisting Notices

On February 9, 2015, the Company received a written notification from the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) indicating that the Company was not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) relating to the minimum bid requirements as the Company’s closing bid price was below $1.00 per share for the previous thirty (30) consecutive business days.

Pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), the Company had been granted a 180 calendar day compliance period, or until August 10, 2015, to regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirements. During the compliance period, the Company’s shares of common stock continued to be listed and traded on the Nasdaq Capital Market. To regain compliance, the closing bid of the Company’s shares of common stock had to meet or exceed $1.00 per share for at least ten (10) consecutive business days during the 180 calendar day grace period.

On August 5, 2015, the Company received notification from Nasdaq that the Company had maintained a closing bid price of $1.00 per share or greater for the last 10 consecutive business days. Accordingly, the Company regained compliance with Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) and this matter was closed.

On September 28, 2015, the Company received a written notification from the Nasdaq indicating that the Company was not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) relating to the minimum bid requirements as the Company’s closing bid price was below $1.00 per share for the previous thirty (30) consecutive business days.

Pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), the Company has been granted a 180 calendar day compliance period, or until March 28, 2016, to regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirements. During the compliance period, the Company’s shares of common stock will continue to be listed and traded on the Nasdaq Capital Market. To regain compliance, the closing bid of the Company’s shares of common stock must meet or exceed $1.00 per share for at least ten (10) consecutive business days during the 180 calendar day grace period.

NOTE 1 — ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES  (continued)

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates and assumptions include reserves and write-downs related to receivables and inventories, the recoverability of long-lived assets, the valuation allowance relating to the Company’s deferred tax assets, valuation of equity and derivative instruments, and debt discounts.

Concentrations of Credit Risk

The Company does not have any off-balance-sheet concentrations of credit risk. Credit risk is the risk that a counterparty will default on its contractual obligations to the Company resulting in financial loss to the Company. The Company’s credit risk is primarily attributable to its cash and accounts receivable. The Company’s policy is to maintain its cash with high credit quality financial institutions to limit its risk of loss exposure. During the year, the Company had cash balances in excess of the federally insured limits of $250,000. The funds are on deposit with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. Consequently, the Company does not believe that there is a significant risk having these balances in one financial institution. The Company has not experienced any losses in its bank accounts through September 30, 2015. For customers, management assesses the credit quality of the customer, taking into account its financial position, past experience and other factors. A portion of trade receivables are those of related parties and management does not expect any losses from non-performance of these parties.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenues when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, services have been rendered, the price is fixed and determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured. Revenues from management and consulting, time-and-materials service contracts, maintenance agreements and other services are recognized as the services are provided or at the time the goods are shipped and title has passed.

Loss Per Share

The Company computes basic net loss per share by dividing net loss per share available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period, excluding the effects of any potentially dilutive securities. Diluted loss per share, if presented, would include the dilution that would occur upon the exercise or conversion of all potentially dilutive securities into common stock using the “treasury stock” and/or “if converted” methods as applicable. The computation of basic loss per share at September 30, 2015 and 2014 excludes the potentially dilutive securities for 14.8 million shares and 0.5 million shares, respectively, underlying the options, warrants, convertible debt and convertible preferred stock, as their effect on loss per share would be anti-dilutive.

Warranty Reserve

The Company established a warranty reserve policy effective for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2013. Although the Company tests its products in accordance with its quality programs and processes, its warranty obligations are affected by product failure rates and service delivery costs incurred in correcting a product failure. Should actual product failure rates or service costs differ from the Company’s estimates, which are based on limited historical data, where applicable, revisions to the estimated warranty liability would be required. The warranty reserve at September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 was $9,000 and $9,000, respectively.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Accounting Principles Generally Accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) require disclosing the fair value of financial instruments to the extent practicable for financial instruments which are recognized or unrecognized in the balance sheet. The fair value of the financial instruments disclosed herein is not necessarily representative of the amount that could be realized or settled, nor does the fair value amount consider the tax consequences of realization or settlement.

In assessing the fair value of financial instruments, the Company uses a variety of methods and assumptions, which are based on estimates of market conditions and risks existing at the time. For certain instruments, including, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued expenses, the Company estimated that the carrying amount approximated fair value because of the short maturities of these instruments. All debt is based on current rates at which the Company could borrow funds with similar remaining maturities and approximates fair value.

NOTE 1 — ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

GAAP establishes a hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use on unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available. Observable inputs are inputs that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the Company’s assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. The hierarchy is described below:

Subsequent Events

Management has evaluated subsequent events or transactions occurring through the date the condensed financial statements were issued and determined that no events or transactions are required to be disclosed herein, except as disclosed.

Recently Issued Accounting Principles

In April 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2015-03, Interest–Imputation of Interest-Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs (“ASU 2015-03”).  ASU 2015-03 requires that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. The recognition and measurement guidance for debt issuance costs are not affected by this update. Debt issuance costs related to revolving lines of credit are not within the scope of this new guidance. Additionally, in August 2015 the FASB issued guidance expanding the April 2015 update (ASU 2015-15). It states that, given the absence of authoritative guidance within the update, the SEC staff would not object to an entity deferring and presenting debt issuance costs as an asset for revolving lines of credit and subsequently amortizing the deferred debt issuance costs ratably over the term of the arrangement, regardless of whether there are any outstanding borrowings on the line of credit. This guidance is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted for financial statements that have not been previously issued. Full retrospective application is required. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements when adopted.

In July 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2015-11, “Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory ” (“ASU 2015-11”). ASU 2015-11 requires an entity to measure inventory at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Net realizable value is the estimated selling prices in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal, and transportation. Subsequent measurement is unchanged for inventory measured using last-in, first-out (“LIFO”) or the retail inventory method. It is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. The amendments should be applied prospectively with earlier application permitted as of the beginning of an interim or annual reporting period.  The Company has not yet determined the effect of the adoption of this standard and it is expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position and results of operations.

In August 2014, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2014-15, Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entities Ability to Continue as a Going Concern, which is included in Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 205, Presentation of Financial Statements. This update provides an explicit requirement for management to assess an entity's ability to continue as a going concern, and to provide related footnote disclosure in certain circumstances. The amendments are effective for annual periods ending after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016. Early application is permitted for annual or interim reporting periods for which the financial statements have not previously been issued. The Company has not yet determined the effect of the adoption of this standard and it is expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position and results of operations.

NOTE 2 — GOING CONCERN

The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern. As of September 30, 2015, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $181.1 million and incurred a net loss of $10.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015. As of September 30, 2015, the Company has been funded through debt and equity financings and advances from related parties. The Company will use the proceeds from the exercise of the Series C and Series D warrants issued in connection with the August 2015 financing to support the Company’s operations (See Note 12 Subsequent Events). To date, the Company is experiencing long sales cycles in the areas that have potential for near term revenue, most notably, in the first responder, public safety, military and rural telco markets. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

The ability to recognize revenue and ultimately cash receipts is contingent upon, but not limited to, acceptable performance of the delivered equipment and services. If the Company is unable to raise additional capital and or close on some of its revenue producing opportunities in the near term, the carrying value of its assets may be impacted and it may be material. The financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recovery and classification of asset carrying amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that might result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

NOTE 3 — INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Intangible assets consist of the following:

Software Development Costs

At September 30, 2015, the Company has capitalized a total of $18.2 million of software development costs. Included in the capitalized costs is $3.6 million of costs associated with enhancement of the xMax cognitive radio products. These costs are not being amortized considering that the enhancement is not yet incorporated in products and available for sale. During the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, the Company recognized amortization of software development costs available for sale of $2.2 million and $2.2 million, respectively. During the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, the Company recognized amortization of software development costs available for sale of $0.8 million and $0.8 million, respectively.

Patents & Licenses

At September 30, 2015, the Company has capitalized a total of $12.4 million of patents and licenses. Included in the capitalized costs is $12.3 million of costs associated with patents and licenses that have been filed. Also included in the capitalized costs is $0.1 million of costs associated with provisional patents and pending applications which have not yet been filed. The Company amortizes patents and licenses that have been filed over their useful lives which range between 18.5 to 20 years. The costs of provisional patents and pending applications is not amortized until the patent is filed and is reviewed each reporting period to determine if it is likely that the patent will be successfully filed. The Company recognized $0.5 million of amortization expense related to patents and licenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 and $0.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014.

Future estimated amortization expense for the Company’s intangible assets is as follows:

NOTE 4 — CONVERTIBLE NOTES PAYABLE

Treco

On October 6, 2011, the Company entered into a convertible promissory note (the “$2 Million Convertible Note”) in favor of Treco International, S.A. (“Treco”), as part of the settlement compensation to Treco for terminating an infrastructure agreement. The $2 Million Convertible Note is payable on its maturity date, October 6, 2018 and is convertible, at Treco’s option, into common shares of the Company at a price of $35.00 per share. Interest at the rate of 9% per year is payable semi-annually in cash or shares, at the Company’s option. The accrued interest at September 30, 2015 was $87,000. On April 16, 2015, the Company issued approximately 31,000 common shares in repayment of $90,000 of interest.

NOTE 4 — CONVERTIBLE NOTES PAYABLE (continued)

Short-Term 8% Convertible Notes

Overview.   On June 11, 2015, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “June 2015 Purchase Agreement”) with a group of accredited investors pursuant to which the Company sold an aggregate of $1,166,666 in principal amount of 8% Convertible Notes (the “8% Convertible Notes”) for an aggregate purchase price of $1,050,000 (the “First Tranche”). On July 14, 2015, the Company and the investors entered into an amendment to the June 2015 Purchase Agreement (the “Amendment”) pursuant to which the Company sold an additional $466,667 in principal amount of 8% Convertible Notes for a purchase price of $420,000 (the “Second Tranche”) for total net proceeds to the Company of $400,000 under the same terms as the First Tranche. The Company received aggregate net proceeds of $1,470,000 in connection with the sale of the First and Second Tranche. The aggregate original issue discount of approximately $163,000 was also recorded by the Company on the issuance dates in convertible notes payable on the condensed balance sheets.

Maturity and Interest.   The First Tranche of 8% Convertible Notes will mature on December 11, 2015, and the Second Tranche of 8% Convertible Notes will mature on January 14, 2016 (each, a “Maturity Date”), less any amounts converted or redeemed prior to the respective Maturity Dates. If the 8% Convertible Notes are not repaid by the Company by the respective Maturity Dates, the Maturity Date shall be automatically extended for an additional three-month period until March 11, 2016 and April 14, 2016 for the First Tranche and Second Tranche, respectively (such period, the “Extension Period”), which extension shall not be considered an event of default. The 8% Convertible Notes currently bear interest at a rate of 8% per annum, and are subject to an increase to the lesser of 24% per annum or the maximum rate permitted under applicable law upon the occurrence of certain events of default.

Conversion.   The 8% Convertible Notes are convertible at any time, in whole or in part, at the option of the holders into shares of common stock at a conversion price of $5.00 per share, which is subject to adjustment for stock dividends, stock splits, combinations or similar events. However, during the Extension Period, the conversion price shall be the lesser of (i) $5.00, subject to adjustment for stock dividends, stock splits, combinations or similar events, and (ii) 85% of the lowest closing price of the common stock in the twenty (20) trading days prior to the date of conversion.

Prepayments and Redemptions.   The Company may, at its option, prepay in cash any portion of the principal amount of the 8% Convertible Notes and any accrued and unpaid interest. If such prepayment is made within sixty (60) days after the issuance date of the 8% Convertible Notes, the Company shall pay an amount in cash equal to 125% of the sum of the then outstanding principal amount of the note and interest; thereafter, if such prepayment is made, the Company shall pay an amount in cash equal to 135% of the sum of the then outstanding principal amount of the note and interest. Within one (1) business day after the closing of any underwritten public offering of at least $7,000,000 of securities of the Company pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-1 or Form S-3 (the “Public Offering”), the Company shall prepay in cash an amount equal to (i) 125% of the sum of the then outstanding principal amount of the note and interest if the closing of the Public Offering occurs within sixty (60) days after the issuance date of the 8% Convertible Notes or (ii) 135% of the sum of the then outstanding principal amount of the note and interest if the closing of the Public Offering occurs after sixty (60) days following the issuance date of the 8% Convertible Notes.

On August 19, 2015, the Company made repayments of principal and interest of $702,000 and $9,700, respectively. In connection with the prepayments, the Company was required to make an additional payment of $234,000 as a result of the prepayment penalties disclosed above. This amount was included in Interest Expense on the condensed Statement of Operations for the three and nine months ending September 30, 2015.

Right to Participate in Future Financings.   For so long as the 8% Convertible Notes are outstanding, the holder has a right to participate in any issuance of the Company’s common stock, common stock equivalents or a combination of units thereof in an underwritten public offering (a “Subsequent Financing”), in an aggregate amount of the Subsequent Financing equal to at least $500,000, on the same terms, conditions and price provided for in the Subsequent Financing.

NOTE 5 — COMMITMENTS

The Company's office rental, deployment sites and warehouse facility expenses equaled in aggregate approximately $337,000 and $327,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The leases in connection with these facilities will expire on different dates from 2016 through 2019. Total obligation under minimum future annual rentals, exclusive of real estate taxes and related costs, are approximately as follows:

The Company also entered into contractual agreements with one of its principal vendors to provide parts for production for an obligation of $1,634,000 to be made in 2016.

NOTE 6 — PREFERRED STOCK

In March 2013, by approval of the majority of the shareholders, the Company was authorized to issue 10,000,000 shares of “Blank Check” preferred stock, par value $0.00001 per share. On December 30, 2014, 3,000,000 shares were designated as authorized Series A Preferred Stock. On February 11, 2015, 3,000,000 shares were designated as authorized Series B Preferred Stock. On February 24, 2015, 3,000,000 shares were designated as authorized Series C Preferred Stock. Each series of preferred stock contains provisions that would require, at the option of the holder, the Company to redeem the convertible preferred stock upon the occurrence of certain fundamental transactions, as defined. As a result, each class of convertible preferred stock has been presented as temporary equity on the face of the condensed balance sheet.

Series A Convertible Preferred Stock

On December 30, 2014, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with 31 Group, LLC (“31 Group”) pursuant to which the Company sold to 31 Group, for a purchase price of $750,000, 750,000 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.00001 per share (the “Series A Preferred Stock”) and warrants to purchase 37,500 shares of common stock (the “Series A Financing”). The Company also issued to 31 Group 3,315 shares of common stock in consideration of 31 Group’s execution and delivery of the Purchase Agreement.

The warrants are exercisable immediately for a period of five years from their issue date. The exercise price with respect to the warrants is $20.00 per share but was subsequently reduced to $11.50 as of June 11, 2015. The exercise price for the warrants is subject to adjustment upon certain events, such as stock splits, combinations, dividends, distributions, reclassifications, mergers or other corporate change and dilutive issuances. In addition, the warrants also contain a net cash settlement provision whereby, upon certain fundamental events, the holders could put the warrants back to the Company for cash. The change in fair value of the warrant liabilities was measured on the date of modification and was not material to the Company’s results of operations.

Liquidation Preference of Series A Preferred Stock

Upon the voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, before the payment of any amount to the holder of shares of junior stock, but pari passu with any parity stock, the holders of Series A Preferred Stock are entitled to receive an amount equal to the greater of (i) the stated value of the Series A Preferred Stock or (ii) the amount the holder of Series A Preferred Stock would receive if such holder converted the Series A Preferred Stock into common stock immediately prior to the date of the liquidation event, including accrued and unpaid dividends.

Dividends on Series A Preferred Stock

Holders of Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive from the first date of issuance of the Series A Preferred Stock cumulative dividends at a rate of 7.0% per annum on a compounded basis.

NOTE 6 — PREFERRED STOCK (continued)

Conversion Rights of Preferred Stock

A holder of Series A Preferred Stock shall have the right to convert the Series A Preferred Stock, in whole or in part, upon written notice to the Company at a conversion price equal to the lower of (i) $20.00 or (ii) 85% of the average of the five (5) lowest volume weighted average prices of the common stock during the twenty (20) consecutive trading day period ending the trading day immediately preceding the delivery of the applicable conversion notice (as adjusted for stock splits, share combinations and similar transactions).

The aggregate grant date fair value of the common stock issued upon conversion was $1,011,000 and as result, the Company recorded $483,000 of dividends and deemed dividend.

Series B Convertible Preferred Stock

31 Group LLC Offering

The Company also issued 2,462 shares of its common stock with a grant date value of approximately $10,000 in consideration of 31 Group’s execution and delivery of the purchase agreement.

In addition, the warrants also contain a net cash settlement provision whereby, upon certain fundamental events, the holders could put the warrants back to the Company for cash.

On July 20, 2015, and effective June 11, 2015, the Company amended the warrants issued to investors of the Series B Preferred Stock to lower the exercise price from $20.00 per share to $11.50 per share except for the warrants issued to certain family members of George Schmitt, which retained an exercise price of $20.00 per share (see below).

NOTE 8 — DERIVATIVE LIABILITIES

Series A, B and C Preferred Stock Conversion Options

The conversion features embedded in the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, and Series C Preferred Stock were bifurcated as they were not considered to be clearly and closely related to the host agreement and were accounted for as a derivative liabilities.

As disclosed above, during the nine months ended September 30, 2015, all issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock, and Series C Preferred Stock were converted into shares of the Company’s common stock. As a result, on the date of conversion the Company re-measured the fair value of each of the conversion features, recorded the change in fair value of the conversion feature in other expense on the condensed statements of operations, and reclassified the re-measured amount to stockholders’ equity.

Warrants to Purchase Common Stock

The warrants issued in connection with the Series A Financing, Series B Financing, and Series C Financing have been accounted for as derivative liabilities as each of the warrants contain a net cash settlement provision whereby, upon certain fundamental events, the holders could put the warrants back to the Company for cash.

NOTE 8 — DERIVATIVE LIABILITIES (continued)

The following are the key assumptions used in connection with the valuation of the warrants associated with the Series A Financing, Series B Financing, and Series C Financing at December 31, 2014, their respective issuance dates, and September 30, 2015:

August 2015 Underwritten Offering

On August 19, 2015, the Company closed its underwritten public offering of its Class A Units, Class B Units, Series C Warrants and Series D Warrants. The Company offered (i) 2,550,000 Class A Units, at a price of $1.00 per Class A Unit, each of which consists of one share of its common stock and 0.5 of a Series A Warrant to purchase one share of its common stock at an exercise price of $1.00 per warrant, (ii) 2,450,000 Class B Units, at a price of $0.99 per Class B Unit, each of which consists of one pre-funded Series B Warrant to purchase one share of its common stock and 0.5 of a Series A Warrant, (iii) 2,550,000 Series C Warrants, at a price of $0.01 per Series C Warrant, which is deemed to be included in the $1.00 price per Class A Unit, each to purchase one additional Class A Unit at an exercise price of $1.00, and (iv) 4,950,000 Series D Warrants, at a price of $0.01 per Series D Warrant, which is deemed to be included in the $0.99 price per Class B Unit, each to purchase one additional Class B Unit at an exercise price of $0.99. Each of the warrants issued in connection with the August 2015 underwritten offering have been accounted for as derivative liabilities as each of the warrants contain a net cash settlement provision whereby, upon certain fundamental events, the holders could put the warrants back to the Company for cash.

The table below sets forth a summary of changes in the fair value of the Company’s Level 3 derivative liabilities associated with the August 2015 underwritten offering for the nine months ended September 30, 2015:

NOTE 8 — DERIVATIVE LIABILITIES (continued)

The following are the key assumptions used in connection with the valuation of the warrants exercisable into common stock on the date of issuance and September 30, 2015:

Level 3 liabilities are valued using unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the liabilities. For fair value measurements categorized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy, the Company’s accounting and finance department, who report to the Chief Financial Officer, determine its valuation policies and procedures. The development and determination of the unobservable inputs for Level 3 fair value measurements and fair value calculations are the responsibility of the Company’s accounting and finance department and are approved by the Chief Financial Officer.

Level 3 Valuation Techniques:

Level 3 financial liabilities consist of the derivative liabilities for which there is no current market for these securities such that the determination of fair value requires significant judgment or estimation. Changes in fair value measurements categorized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy are analyzed each period based on changes in estimates or assumptions and recorded as appropriate. The Company deems financial instruments which do not have fixed settlement provisions to be derivative instruments. In accordance with ASC Topic 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity, the fair value of these warrants is classified as a liability on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets because, according to the terms of the warrants, a fundamental transaction could give rise to an obligation of the Company to pay cash to its warrant holders. Such instruments do not have fixed settlement provisions and have also been recorded as derivative liabilities. Corresponding changes in the fair value of the derivative liabilities are recognized in earnings on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations in each subsequent period.

The Company’s derivative liabilities are carried at fair value and were classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy due to the use of significant unobservable inputs. In order to calculate fair value, the Company uses a binomial model style simulation, as the value of certain features of the warrant derivative liabilities would not be captured by the standard Black-Scholes model.

NOTE 8 — DERIVATIVE LIABILITIES (continued)

The following table sets forth a summary of the changes in the fair value of our Level 3 financial liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

Overview

We have developed a broad portfolio of innovative intellectual property to enhance wireless communications. Our intellectual property is embedded in proprietary software algorithms that offer cognitive interference mitigation and spectrum access solutions for countless applications using commercial off the shelf devices. We recently released the commercially available version of our software and hardware products using our proprietary xMax® cognitive radio technology.

Our current cognitive radio technology is based on years of product development. In 2008 and 2009, we generated material revenues from sales of our prior BSN250 voice-only products. After the introduction of various smartphones in 2007 and later, that could handle both voice and data, we decided to enhance our voice-only products to include data services. In 2011, we delivered our enhanced BSN250 base station and TX70 handset for both voice and SMS services to the U.S. Army. Given the proliferation of smartphones, the U.S. Army subsequently requested that our BSN250 base station should integrate with commercial off the shelf devices. In 2013, we introduced an improved product line that could handle both voice and data services. These new products, the Access Point (“CN1100”), formely known as the xAP base station, the Mobile Hotspot (‘‘CN5100’’), formerly known as the xMod modem, and the Vehicle Modem (‘‘CN3100’’), formerly known as the xVM modem, are able to communicate with any wi-fi enabled commercial off the shelf device. In 2014, we began developing a new product, the CN3200 Dual Band Routing Modem (‘‘CN3200’’), formerly known as the xRM modem. On September 30, 2014, we received certification from the U.S. Federal Communications Commission in connection with the CN3200. The CN3200 is a module that complements the xMax mobile system and is designed to provide high speed fixed broadband access using frequencies at 2.4 GHz. It offers an end-user solution that seamlessly integrates xMax and wi-fi in a single device, and allows the delivery of both high data rates and reliable high-speed mobility in the same system. We believe that the CN3200 will provide higher performance with dedicated channels for voice (xMax) and data (wi-fi), will maximize user experience via interprotocol smart-routing, and will provide greater reliability.

We believe that the wireless communications industry is facing a ‘‘spectrum crisis’’ because the demand for flexible, affordable voice and data access continues to increase rapidly while the amount of available spectrum remains relatively constant. We have developed frequency-agnostic cognitive radio solutions to address this increasing demand by eliminating the need to acquire scarce and expensive licensed radio spectrum, and thus ideally lowering the total cost of ownership for wireless broadband access. With fast-growing demand straining network capacity, our intellectual property is also designed to help wireless broadband network operators make more efficient use of their existing spectrum allocations. We are targeting sales in numerous industries worldwide, such as telecommunications services, public safety and defense, and in markets ranging from rural to urban areas as well as expeditionary deployments.

The initial implementation of our cognitive radio intellectual property is xMax. We believe the xMax system is the only commercially available cognitive radio network system that includes our interference mitigation and spatial processing technologies. xMax implements our proprietary interference mitigation software that can increase capacity on already crowded airwaves by improving interference tolerance, enabling the delivery of higher QoS than other technologies that would not be able to cope with the interference. We believe that the xMax system will also, when operating on more than one radio channel, deliver dynamic spectrum access by using our patented self-organizing network techniques. Furthermore, the xMax system can be used to provide additional capacity to licensed spectrum by identifying and utilizing unused bandwidth within the licensed spectrum.

Our system is frequency agnostic, although currently designed to operate within the 902 – 928 MHz unlicensed band of spectrum. xMax serves as a mobile VoIP and broadband data system that utilizes an end-to-end IP system architecture. The xMax product and service suite includes access points, mobile switching centers, network management systems, deployment tools and proactive customer support. The xMax system will allow mobile operators to utilize free, unlicensed 902 – 928 MHz ISM band spectrum (which spectrum is available in all of the Americas except French Guiana) instead of purchasing scarce and expensive licensed spectrum. Our xMax system will also enable enterprises to set up a mobile communications network in an expeditious and cost-effective manner.

We have generated significant net losses for the past several years and we expect to continue to realize net losses for the immediate future.

Plan of Operations

We are executing on our sales and marketing strategy, through both direct sales to end-customers and indirect sales to channel network partners, and as a result, we have entered into a number of equipment purchase, reseller and teaming agreements as a result. These customer engagements span our target markets in rural telecommunications and defense.

Recent Developments

In August 2015, we announced a report that found our xMax private mobile broadband wireless networks deliver superior interference tolerance capabilities compared to current, commercially available communications systems. These capabilities enable xMax to provide enhanced data rates under interference conditions as well as capacity increases of up to three times over conventional wireless networks such as 802.11 (WiFi), with particular advantages for the public safety and military sectors.

In September 2015, we announced the introduction of the xMax NOW Network on Wheels™ (“xMax NOW”) transportable broadband wireless system. xMax NOW, which is available for customer shipments immediately, has everything needed to establish instant, wide-area mobile communications capabilities in a roll-out format. xG specifically designed xMax NOW to meet the rapid-deploy requirements of emergency response, homeland security, law enforcement, military and private entities. The system can extend the range of data communications up to seven miles (160 square miles of coverage) around a mobile command center to enable real-time situational awareness. xMax NOW is a fully self-contained mobile voice and data communications system that can be easily transported by vehicles of any size. The system, which has been pre-packaged for easy setup and installation, allows communications links to be established within 30 minutes. Components of the system include a self-configuring wireless broadband data center unit, a fast and flexible mast structure, all necessary antennas, cabling, switches, and quick-install hardware and accessories. All items are enclosed in rugged, easily transportable packaging for deployment on demand. Satellite backhaul capability pre-configured in a flyaway kit can also be included.

In September 2015, we announced in an 8-K filing that we received an executed purchase order from an agency of the U,S. government for approximately $200,000. In November 2015, we announced that the order was received from the U.S. State Department. The equipment will provide essential communications to assure the safety of U.S. government personnel serving in Mexico, their families, and U.S citizens in Mexico during disaster events.

In October 2015, the Company received an order from a Department of Defense agency for xMax mobile broadband wireless equipment and services. The equipment will be used for additional testing and validation of xMax as a mobile tactical data communications system in response to specific technology objectives.  

In November 2015, we announced that we enetered a partnership with GlobalMedia Group, LLC (‘GlobalMed”) to market integrated health delivery systems that incorporate xG mobile broadband technology and GlobalMed’s telemedicine hardware, devices and software. The xMax Telemedicine Network Solution (“xMax TMN”) facilitates the immediate and reliable transmission of critical health information, multimedia medical applications, and lifesaving services to locations that are difficult to reach or have limited communications options available. It consists of a rapidly-deployable, easy-to-install, turnkey mobile network solution that provides a secure, two-way telemedicine communications infrastructure.

Results of Operations

Comparison for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014

Revenues

Revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, were $189,000 and $1,146,000, respectively, representing an increase of $39,000 and $583,000, respectively, from $150,000 and $563,000 in the corresponding periods in 2014. The revenue of $189,000 resulted from $172,000 from sales of equipment and $17,000 from engineering services and a consulting services agreement during the three months ended September 30, 2015. The revenue of $1,146,000 resulted from $922,000 from sales of equipment and $224,000 from engineering services and a consulting services agreement during the nine months ended September 30, 2015. Of the $1,146,000 in revenue, $480,000 was previously recorded as deferred revenue. Of the $189,000 and $1,146,000 in revenue, related party revenue was $4,000 and $156,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 compared to $0 and $0 for the corresponding periods in 2014.

Cost of Revenue and Operating Expenses

Cost of Components and Personnel

Cost of components and personnel for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, were $114,000 and $689,000, respectively, representing an increase of $204,000 and $470,000, respectively, from $60,000 and $165,000 in the corresponding periods in 2014. Of the $114,000 and $689,000, respectively, $112,000 and $635,000 was based on the cost of components and the time allocated to building the products sold, and $2,000 and $54,000, respectively, was based on the cost of the time allocated towards the engineering and consulting service agreement.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses are the expenses of operating the Company’s business on a daily basis and includes salary and benefit expenses and payroll taxes, as well as the costs of trade shows, marketing programs, promotional materials, professional services, facilities, general liability insurance, and travel. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, the Company incurred aggregate expense of $1.8 million and $5.2 million, respectively, compared to $1.5 million and $4.6 million, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, representing an increase of $0.3 million or 20% for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and $0.6 million or 13% for the nine months ended September 30, 2015.

The three month increase of $0.3 million is due to an increase of $0.5 million in consulting fees associated with the Company’s listing on the NASDAQ Capital Market which was partially offset by a decrease of $0.2 million in payroll.

The nine month increase of $0.6 million is due to increases in consulting fees associated with the Company’s listing on the NASDAQ Capital Market of $1.1 million; $0.1 million in insurances; and $0.1 million in consulting fees. The increases were partially offset by decreases of $0.2 million in payroll; $0.2 million in legal fees; $0.2 million in taxes and licenses; and $0.1 million of travel expenses.

Development Expenses

Development expenses consist primarily of salaries, benefit expenses and payroll taxes, as well as costs for prototypes, facilities and travel. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, the Company incurred aggregate expense of $1.0 million and $3.7 million, respectively, compared to $1.7 million and $6.3 million, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, representing a decrease of $0.7 million or 41% for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and $2.6 million or 41% for the nine months ended September 30, 2015.

The three month decrease of $0.7 million is due to decreases of $0.4 million in payroll due to a reduction in personnel; $0.1 million in materials used for research and development purposes; $0.1 million in consulting services; and $0.1 million in travel expenses.

The nine month decrease of $2.6 million is due to decreases of $0.5 million in payroll due to a reduction in personnel; $0.6 million in materials used for research and development purposes; $0.4 million in consulting services; $0.2 million in costs related to maintaining existing patents; $0.7 million in additional payroll capitalization; and $0.1 million in insurances.

We expect our development costs to decrease going forward as we implemented cost saving measures in 2015 which included a reduction in our current full-time, part-time and contracted workforce.

Stock Based Compensation

Stock based compensation increased $0.02 million from $0.13 million in the three months ended September 30, 2014 to $0.15 million in the three months ended September 30, 2015. Stock based compensation decreased $0.06 million from $0.49 million in the three months ended September 30, 2014 to $0.43 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2015. The fluctuations arose from the number of outstanding options expensed in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 compared to the same periods in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014.

Amortization and Depreciation

Amortization and depreciation expenses were $1.0 million the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014. Amortization and depreciation expenses increased $0.01 million, or 1%, from $2.86 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2014 to $2.87 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2015.

Other

Interest expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 was $0.1 million and $0.2 million, respectively, compared to $0.04 million and $0.1 million, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014.

Net Loss

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, the Company had a net loss of $3.1 million and $10.6 million, respectively, compared to a net loss of $4.3 million and $14.0 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, or a decrease of $1.2 million and $3.4 million, respectively. The decreases in net loss are due mainly to increases in revenue and decreases in development expenses discussed above.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of September 30, 2015, the Company had positive working capital of approximately $0.6 million including $1.1 million of cash and cash equivalents. We have incurred net losses of $10.6 million and $14.0 million, respectively, in the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014. Additionally, we have incurred negative operating cash flows including cash used in operations of $5.1 million and $12.1 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014.

Our future capital requirements may vary materially from those currently planned and will depend on many factors, including our rate of revenue growth, the timing and extent of spending to support development efforts, the timing of new product introductions, market acceptance of our products and overall economic conditions. The Company does not currently have sufficient capital in order to fund operations for the next twelve months from the balance sheet date or to achieve cash flow breakeven. Therefore, the Company is actively evaluating various alternatives of financing in order to obtain additional capital to allow the Company to deliver its products. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Upon certain fundamental events, the warrants could be redeemed by the holders of the warrants at fair market value estimated using Black Scholes.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not currently have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to our stockholders.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

As a smaller reporting company, as defined in Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act, we are not required to provide the information required by this Item.

Item 4.  Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that material information required to be disclosed in our periodic reports filed under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and to ensure that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer (Principal Executive Officer) and Chief Financial Officer (Principal Financial Officer), does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within our Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include, but are not limited to, the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the control. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.

As of September 30, 2015, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the principal executive officer and the principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13(a)-15(e) under the Exchange Act. Based on this evaluation, management concluded that as of September 30, 2015, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.

Our management has previously identified a material weakness regarding inadequate accounting resources due to the need to hire accounting personnel with the requisite knowledge of U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The Company made progress to remedy this deficiency through the hiring of a financial controller to support the accounting personnel. The financial controller began employment in September 2013 and has now been fully integrated into the Company’s control process. However, due to the recent loss of accounting personnel through cost cutting measures and the need to deal with complex accounting transactions, we believe that our disclosure controls are not effective.

Changes in Internal Controls

During the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2015, there have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.
