MICROMEM TECHNOLOGIES INC.
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED APRIL 30, 2013
PREPARED AS OF JUNE 28, 2013

1. CORPORATE HISTORY

Micromem Technologies Inc. (“Micromem” or “the Company”) is a development stage Company that has developed proprietary MRAM technology for both memory and sensor applications. The Company’s shares are traded on the NASDAQ over the counter Bulletin Board (OTCBB) under the symbol MMTIF and on the Canadian National Stock Exchange (“CNSX”) under the symbol MRM. In 2008, the Company incorporated Micromem Applied Sensor Technologies Inc. (“MAST”) for the purpose of moving forward with the planned commercialization of its technology.

MAST was formed in response to a contract with BAE System in Nashua New Hampshire. BAE System's interest was in the potential to utilize Micromem’s MRAM in a radiation-hardened environment for military applications, where the initial contract with BAE Systems was to use the patented Micromem MRAM to design and manufacture a memory cell from a GaAs foundry. During this work it was determined that the Hall sensor, which was integral to the MRAM design, had several performance characteristics that by itself, as a product, would potentially create value for MAST.

A decision was taken to internally develop, at our own cost, proof of concepts for products that we had identified through our marketing to have potential market value. These included a magnetic gold sensor for drilling plug analysis, an oil condition sensor for automotive use and an oil/gas aerial exploration platform. Provisional patents were created on this work.

A potential revenue-generating opportunity emerged in August 2010 when Lux Research contacted us on behalf of their client, a world leader in oil production. They were looking for companies that could create extremely small foot print magnetic sensor solutions for down hole use in production oil fields. MAST was subsequently engaged by this client to develop and deliver a sensor platform for detecting 4 nanometer magnetic particles in a flowing oil stream at a concentration less than 1 ppb. Subsequent press releases on this contract created positive interest in MAST and another second potential revenue generating opportunity came in 2011 from GSI Westwind, a supplier for high speed air bearing motors. MAST replaced the incumbent Hall sensor supplier and delivered a unique circuit board form factor that incorporated the smallest Hall sensor in the world.

In 2011 MAST became aware of the Ninesigma Open Innovation model. Ninesigma's core services connect innovation-seeking companies to the best solutions, capabilities and partners around the world. MAST's relationship with Ninesigma has provided us common ground access to the Global Fortune 1000 companies and has resulted in a robust sales proposal pipeline and the first time in the Company's history an ability to forecast revenue.

4


To date Micromem has funded all research and development. It is expected that future development will be client funded. The priority at MAST is to provide customers with unparalleled sensor based platform solutions that address their difficult business problems. A recent study by NineSigma states that less than 3% of the Fortune 1000 global companies admit that they have sufficient in house talent and knowledge to be able to take advantage of technologies that can help them improve their business. Our sensor platform solutions address three primary areas of creating value for our clients:

  • Using a MEMS and/or Nano scale pallet, we are able to combine disparate sensor modalities into a common, integrated solution that brings the exact tools in play in solving the target issue. Competitive solutions tend to force fit less than optimum sensor combinations in an effort to sell standard offerings.

  • Although our solutions are custom designed for each client, our processes leading to the solution are automated and the end result is a cost effective solution with a high return on investment for our clients.

  • Our Open Innovation approach to solving client problems allows us to bring together already proven sensor technologies in different market spaces allowing us to apply them in new applications in new markets. This significantly reduces the time to revenue generation by both MAST and our client and it reduces risk of project failure.

MAST intends to purse specific, definable, market segments with a multi-tiered, multi-channel approach. We expect to leverage our technologies with licensing agreements in certain key areas and a direct sales and distribution strategy in other areas using established distributors. Our sales and revenue plan includes looking to foreign markets through established distributors or strategic partners.

To finance its initiatives, the Company has relied on private placement financings, the exercise of stock options, common share purchase warrants and bridge loans. In total, the Company secured approximately $11.5 million of financing for its operations between 2009 – 2012.

2. OVERVIEW OF QUARTER ENDING APRIL 2013.

  (a)

The Company raised total financing of $985,029, through a number of Unit private placement financings, from the exercise of common share warrants and from the issuance of bridge loans.

     
  (b)

The Company issued technical updates/releases on the status of its various projects that are under development and on certain product prototype testing that was completed successfully.

     
  (c)

The Company continues to develop and build a substantial pipeline of development opportunities that it anticipates will translate into additional development contracts in future licensing and sales opportunities.

     
  (d)

The Company continues the process of securing the sponsorship of an investment banking firm to apply for listing on the TSX Venture Exchange.

     
  (e)

 The Company’s significant current project initiatives include the following:

GSI Westwind: Commercial production is expected to begin in 2013. First articles of production have been tested and approved by our client. We plan to aggressively market our speed control circuit board design to other high precision motor suppliers once this initial order has been secured.

Oil Sensor: Client testing of our proof of concept at their facility has been completed. A multi-year exclusive product delivery proposal has been submitted for client approval. These discussions continue and our expectation is that we will secure client orders in the 2nd half of 2013.

International Energy Company: The Company has worked with this customer since 2011 and has developed sophisticated sensor measuring technology for use in oil and gas wells. The beta version of this product is ready for shipping to the client’s facility. The plan is to complete the field trials at the client’s facilities in the second half of 2013 and then begin deployment of our product onto field well sites.

Offshore Exploration/Gas and Oil Well Monitoring: The Company has engaged two large international energy companies in 2012 in discussions and negotiations for use of its sensor technology for diagnostic/control and monitoring systems prototype units. The Company expects to advance these discussions towards development prototypes in 2013 with the expectation of commercial revenues in 2014.

Early Breast Cancer Detection: The Company successfully demonstrated our product line in Europe in 2012 and continues to pursue negotiations of a franchising model for which we anticipate will bring cost effective services to women of all ages for early indication of breast cancer. If these negotiations are completed successfully, we anticipate commercial revenues be realized by late 2013 or early 2014.

6


Medical Nano-Weighing Application: The Company is currently negotiating with a medical production facility to design and build a weighing platform capable of measuring less than 500 nanograms of product within 1 second. This is adjunct technology that the Company developed on our oil sensor platform project. This is a potential revenue opportunity in the 2nd half of 2013.

Early Detection of Incipient Failure in High Voltage Transmission Lines: The Company has developed a low cost platform that can be pervasively deployed over a company’s high voltage transmission network and will utilize cutting edge technology to alert potential failure of sagging voltage lines before the failure occurs. This is a potential revenue opportunity in the 2nd half of 2013.

Robust Business Development Proposal Pipeline: The Company currently has an active business development proposal backlog of $71M USD. Many of the proposals have made the clients’ short list and one on one discussion under Non-Disclosure Agreements are underway.

Commentary:

(1)

Adjusted net loss: Under IFRS, the outstanding Canadian denominated warrants are reported as a derivative warrant liability in the statement of financial position. At the end of each reporting period this liability is revalued based on an application of the Black Scholes pricing model. This quarter end revaluation gives rise to a revaluation gain or loss which is reported in the statement of operations. In this presentation these revaluations are eliminated. Additionally the cost related to the issuance of stock options (during each quarter where stock options have been awarded) is calculated in accordance with the Black Scholes option pricing model and this is not a cash cost of compensation expense. Finally, in this presentation, other non cash expenses reported in the statement of operation are eliminated. The adjusted net loss as reported presents the net cash loss on operations in the period reported. This illustrates that the net cash loss per month at the current level of operating activity has averaged approximately $180,000 per month over the past two fiscal years, or an actual average cash utilized of approximately $2 million per annum.

   
(2)

Adjusted working capital: has been calculated by eliminating the derivative warrant liability on outstanding Canadian denominated warrants as reported at the end of each reporting period; these are not liabilities that require repayment in cash.

8



These outstanding warrants will either be exercised or not prior to their expiration date. In Table 4 to this MD&A it is illustrated that if the total number of warrants outstanding at April 30, 2013 are in fact exercised, the Company would issue an additional 22,786,543 common shares and relay proceeds of approximately $6.2 million.

   

in this presentation, the outstanding bridge loans are reported at the cash cost of redeeming these loans; the embedded derivative calculation and the accrued accretion expense both of which are non cash entries, have been eliminated.

   

Finally, in this presentation, certain accruals of approximately $125,000 relating to expenses which the Company has provided for but does not expect that these will create any current liability at each quarter end have been eliminated in this presentation. These would more likely be longer term liabilities.

   

The adjusted net working capital positions as presented illustrates that the Company's net working capital deficiency has been reduced over time as the Company has successfully raised additional cash and it has paid down its outstanding obligations. The conventional working capital calculations drawn from the financial statements as presented include a significant amount of non cash liabilities (the derivative warrant liabilities) which do not require cash repayment.

   
(3)

Cash raised: The cash raised by the Company in each reporting period includes proceeds from private placements, the exercise of common share purchase warrants and from bridge loans secured. This information is highlighted in Table 3 to this MD&A presentation.

   

This illustrates that the Company has been successful in raising financing for its continued operations and its commitments to project development activities over past reporting periods.

4. GOING CONCERN

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the “going concern” basis, which presumes that the Company will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future.

There are material uncertainties related to adverse conditions and events that cast significant doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time in future. During the quarter ended April 30, 2013, the Company reported a loss from operations of $591,372 (2012- loss from operations of $1,012,078). As of that date, the Company has an accumulated deficit of $83,008,128 (2012: $82,538,596), a working capital deficiency (for this purpose defined as current assets less current liabilities excluding the reported derivative warrant liability) of $363,157 (2012: $1,086,547).

The Company will focus its development effort on existing projects in order to develop commercial applications for these projects and will continue to raise financing for operations as outlined in the notes to the consolidated financial statements as at April 30, 2013.

9


It will be necessary for the Company to raise additional funds for the continued development, testing and commercial exploitation of its technologies. To date, the Company has raised financing through successive unit private placements, through the exercise of common share stock options and through the exercise of common share purchase warrants. It has also secured periodic bridge loans.

In the ensuing calendar year, the Company anticipates that (i) it will realize initial revenues from commercialization efforts with current strategic development partners, (ii) it will monitor the timing of incurring additional expenses in keeping with its ongoing working capital position, and (iii) it will continue to secure financing in the same manner in which it has raised financing to date.

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis and do not include any adjustments to the amounts and classifications of the assets and liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue in business. If the “going concern” assumption were not appropriate for these consolidated financial statements then adjustments would be necessary to the carrying value of assets and liabilities, the reported expenses and the balance sheet classifications used. Such adjustments may be material.

6. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Liquidity:

Table 3 provides a summary of the financing that was raised during the 2010, 2011 and 2012 fiscal years and for the current year through April 30, 2013.

We currently have no cash flow from operations and will have none until we are in a position to either license or directly produce and sell products utilizing our technologies. As at April 30, 2013, our working capital deficiency (excluding derivative warrant liability) was $363,157 (2012: $1,086,547).

We currently have no lines of credit in place. We must obtain financing from new investors or from investors who currently hold outstanding options and warrants in order to meet our cash flow needs until we generate revenues.

We have granted to our directors, officers and other employee’s options to purchase shares at prices that are at or above market price on the date of grant. A summary of the outstanding options and warrants is provided in Table 4.

Capital Resources:

We have no commitments for capital expenditures as of April 30, 2013.

7. RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES OVERVIEW

There are a number of material risks which may individually or in the aggregate effect the long-term commercial success of the Company, both known and unknown. An investment in the Company should be considered highly speculative due to the nature of the Company’s activities and its current stage of development:

14


Stage of Development of Technology:

The Company has made significant strides in developing its prototype products over the past several years in its attempt to commercialize its products with its various strategic development partners. Nonetheless, the Company at this stage has not completed such efforts to the point that it has product available for sale and their remains uncertainties as to the Company’s ultimate ability to complete the development of a product that is saleable.

Customers’ Willingness to Purchase:

We have entered into multiple joint development agreements whereby our prototype products are being subjected to rigorous testing by our partners. We have not as yet received unequivocal and firm purchase orders for our product. Some of the joint development partners that we are dealing with are private companies and there is a potential risk of those companies having to secure all of their requisite financing to support their orders and their working capital requirement.

Patent Portfolio:

The Company has spent a considerable amount of time, effort and incurred significant costs with respect to the maintenance and development of our intellectual property portfolio. However, given the nature of IP development, the Company is subject to continuing risks that our patents could be successfully challenged or that our patent pending files may not ultimately be granted full patent status. While we continue to make specific efforts to broaden our IP claims, this is an ongoing process and requires continued effort and vigilance. The Company does not have extensive in-house resources so as to manage its IP portfolio in this environment and has traditionally relied heavily on its patent attorneys for these services.

Financing:

The Company has successfully raised funding over the past several years to continue to support its development initiatives and fund the Company’s corporate structure and overheads. The financing environment for early stage technology companies remains challenging and there is no certainty that the Company will be able to continue to raise financing as it has in the past to continue to support its business initiatives.

Competitors:

The Company is subject to competition from other larger entities who have greater financial resources and more in-house technical expertise.

Management Structure:

The Company is highly dependent on the services of a small number of senior management team members. If one of these individuals were unavailable, the Company could encounter difficult transition processes.

15


Foreign Currency Exposure:

The Company expects to sell its products and license technologies in the United States, in Canada and abroad. The Company has not hedged its foreign currency exposure, which has not been significant to date. In future, foreign currency fluctuations could present a risk to the business.

8. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Our significant accounting policies are set forth in Note 4 to our consolidated financial statements as of October 31, 2012 and should be read in conjunction with management’s discussion of the Company’s critical accounting policies and estimates as set forth below.

IFRS:

IFRS reporting has been adopted effective November 1, 2010.

The accounting policies have been applied in preparing the consolidated financial statements for the quarter ended April 30, 2013 and the comparative information presented as at and for the quarter ended April 30, 2012.

Compound Financial Instruments:

Compound financial instruments issued by the Company comprise convertible notes that can be converted to share capital at the option of the holder and the number of shares to be issued does not vary with changes in their fair value.

The liability component of a compound financial instrument is recognized initially at the fair value of a similar liability that does not have an equity conversion option.

The equity component, if the conversion feature of the convertible note is in US dollars, is recognized initially as the difference between the fair value of the compound financial instrument as a whole and the fair value of the liability component. Any directly attributable transaction costs are allocated to the liability and equity components in proportion to their initial carrying amounts.

Subsequent to initial recognition, the liability component of a compound financial instrument is measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method. The equity component of a compound financial instrument is not premeasured subsequent to initial recognition.

Interest, dividends, losses and gains relating to the financial liability are recognized in profit or loss except for borrowing costs on qualifying assets which are added to asset cost. Distributions to the equity holders are recognized in equity, net of any tax effect.

Hybrid Financial Instruments:

Financial instruments with embedded derivative liabilities are accounted for as hybrid financial instruments. The Company has hybrid financial instruments when the embedded derivative conversion option right of the convertible notes gives the right to the holder to convert into a common share in Canadian dollars (“CDN”).

16


An embedded derivative is a feature within a contract, such that the cash flows associated with that feature behave in a similar fashion to a stand-alone derivative. An embedded derivative is separated from its host contract and accounted for as a derivative only when three criteria are satisfied:

- When the economic risks and characteristics of the embedded derivatives are not closely related to those of the host contract;
-  A separate instrument with the same terms as the embedded derivative would meet the definition of a derivative; and
-  The entire instrument is not measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in the income statement.

Subsequent to initial recognition, the embedded derivative component is re-measured each reporting period using the Black Scholes option-pricing model with the change in fair value recognized in statement of loss and comprehensive loss.

Derivative Liability:

The Company’s derivative financial instruments consist of derivative liabilities in relation to its share purchase warrants and the conversion feature on its bridge loans.

 

i)

Derivative Warrant Liability:

 

 

 

 

The Company issues share purchase warrants in conjunction with private placements for the purchase of common shares of the Company. A number of these share purchase warrants were issued with an exercise price in CDN, rather than USD (the reporting and functional currency of the Company). Such share purchase warrants are considered to be derivative instruments and the Company is required to re-measure the fair value of these at each reporting date. The fair value of these CDN share purchase warrants are re-measured at each financial position date using the Black Scholes option-pricing model using the exchange rates at the financial position date and measured over their remaining life. Adjustments to the fair value of the derivative warrant liability as at the financial position date are recorded in the statement of loss and comprehensive loss as (gain) loss on revaluation of derivative warrant liability. Share purchase warrants that have expired or have been forfeited are adjusted to the statement of loss and comprehensive loss as (gain) loss on revaluation of derivative warrant liability.

 

 

 

 

Consideration received upon the exercise of warrants is credited to share capital and the related amount is transferred from contributed surplus (USD warrants) or derivative warrant liability to share capital (CDN warrants).

 

 

 

 

ii)

Conversion Feature of Bridge Loans

 

 

 

 

The conversion feature on the bridge loans allows the holder of the option to convert the outstanding principal and interest from time to time to common equity. The Company, using the Black Scholes option-pricing model, accounts for bridge loans as follows:

17



(i)

At date of origination the bifurcation of the total balance of the loan as debt and equity is calculated. If the conversion feature of the bridge loan is in CDN there is no equity component, resulting in an embedded derivative. Accretion expense is recorded over the term of the loan.

     

(ii)

The total loan proceeds are allocated between the bridge loans and the related embedded derivative based on their relative fair value. The embedded derivative conversion feature is included under the bridge loans in the statement of financial position.

     

(iii)

The conversion feature is revalued at the end of the reporting period and any adjustment is reflected in the statement of loss and comprehensive loss if the conversion feature is in CDN.

Foreign Currency Translation:

IFRS requires that the functional currency of each entity in the consolidated entity be determined separately in accordance with specific indicators and should be measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates (the “functional currency”). As a result of an assessment of the primary indicators, management assessed the functional currency of the Company and its subsidiaries to be U.S. dollar (“USD”). The consolidated financial statements of the Company are prepared and presented using the USD.

Foreign currency transactions denominated in other than U.S. dollars are translated into the functional currency on the following basis:

i) Monetary assets and liabilities are translated at the rates of exchange prevailing at the statement of financial position date.

ii) Non-monetary assets and liabilities that are measured at historical cost are translated using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction.

iii) Income and expenses for each income statement line item presented are translated at average exchange rates during the quarter in which they are recognized.

Exchange differences resulting from the settlement of foreign currency transactions are recognized directly in the consolidated statement of loss and comprehensive loss in the period in which incurred.

Stock-Based Compensation:

The Company applies the fair value based method of accounting for all stock based payments to employees and non-employees and all direct awards of stock. For non-employees, stock based payments are measured at the fair value of the services received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued or liabilities incurred, whichever is more reliably measurable. Stock based compensation is charged to operations over the vesting period and the offset is credited to contribute surplus.

18


Consideration received upon the exercise of stock options is credited to share capital and the related amount is transferred from contributed surplus.

The fair value of stock options and warrants is determined by the Black Scholes option-pricing model with assumptions for risk free interest rates, dividend yields, volatility factors of the expected market price of the Company’s common shares and an expected life of the option or warrant issued. A forfeiture rate is estimated on the grant date and is adjusted to reflect the actual number as options that vest. In the event that vested stock options expire, previously recognized stock based compensation is not reversed. In the event that stock options are forfeited, previously recognized stock based compensation associated with the unvested portion of the stock options forfeited is reversed. The fair value of direct awards of stock is determined by the quoted market price of the Company’s stock.

9. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

It is management's opinion that the Company is not exposed to significant interest rate and credit risks arising from financial instruments and that the fair value of financial instruments approximates the carrying value.

Fair values: The Company's financial instruments include: cash and cash equivalents, other receivables and accounts payable and accrued liabilities, the fair values of which approximate their carrying values due to their short-term maturity.

Credit risk: Financial instruments, which subject the Company to potential credit risk, consist of other receivables. The Company does not require collateral or other security for accounts receivable. The Company estimates its provision for uncollectible amounts based on an analysis of the specific amount and the debtor's payment history and prospects.

Foreign exchange: The Company completes transactions denominated in Canadian and in United States dollars and, as such, is exposed to fluctuations in foreign exchange rates. The Company does not use derivative instruments to reduce its exposure to foreign currency risk.

10. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Operating Leases:

The Company entered into a new five year lease in June, 2012 at a base monthly cost of approximately $3,800.

Legal Matters and Contingencies:

There are currently no outstanding legal matters to which the Company is a party. We have agreed to indemnify our directors and officers and certain of our employees in accordance with our by-laws. We maintain insurance policies that may provide coverage against certain claims.

19


Royalties:

The Company has obligations under the terms of the License Agreement signed with University of Toronto in June 2005. The total obligation could be $1 million tied to future product revenues.

11. DISCLOSURE CONTROLS / INTERNAL CONTROLS

The Company was not classified as accelerated filer in 2011 or in 2012 and did not complete an external audit on its internal controls in those years. It filed its last audit report on internal controls in 2010.

Management and the Board of Directors, primarily through the Audit Committee, have instituted review procedures on all of our periodic filings. We have established a disclosure committee consisting of independent directors. A charter for the disclosure committee and a policy has been developed and has been ratified by our Board of Directors. We engage legal counsel, as required, to provide guidance and commentary on our press releases.

Management has concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures meet required standards. These disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in its various reports are recorded, processed, summarized and reported accurately. In spite of its evaluation, management does recognize that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can only provide reasonable assurance and not absolute assurance of achieving the desired control objectives.

12. OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

The Company has no off-balance sheet financial commitments and does not anticipate entering into any contracts of such nature other than the addition of new operating leases for equipment and premises as may be required in the normal course of business.
