DragonWave Inc.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Expressed in US $000's except share and per share amounts

1. NATURE OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

        DragonWave Inc. [the "Company"], incorporated under the Canada Business Corporations Act in February 2000, is in the business of developing next-generation broadband wireless backhaul and pseudowire equipment.

        The Company's common shares are traded on the Toronto Stock Exchange under the trading symbol DWI and on NASDAQ Global Market under the symbol DRWI.

        These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, DragonWave Corp., incorporated in the state of Delaware, USA, DragonWave PTE Limited, incorporated in Singapore, DragonWave Networks Ltd., incorporated in Israel, DragonWave S.r.l, incorporated in Italy, DragonWave S.A.R.L., incorporated in Luxembourg, DragonWave LTDA, incorporated in Brazil, DragonWave Mexico S.A. de C.V., incorporated in Mexico, DragonWave Telecommunications Ltd., incorporated in China, Axerra GMBH, incorporated in Germany, Axerra Networks Asia Pacific Limited, incorporated in Hong Kong, and its majority owned subsidiary, DragonWave HFCL India Private Limited. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation.

        The consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in United States dollars following United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ["U.S. GAAP"].

        In the opinion of management, the consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, which consist only of normal and recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the financial position as at August 31, 2012 and August 31, 2011 and the results of operations, cash flows and changes in equity for the three and six months ended August 31, 2012 and August 31, 2011.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

ACCOUNTING POLICIES ADOPTED IN THE CURRENT FISCAL YEAR

Presentation of comprehensive income

        The Company adopted Accounting Standard Update ["ASU"] 2011-05, which revised the manner in which entities present comprehensive income in their financial statements. The new guidance removed the presentation options in ASC 220 and requires entities to report components of comprehensive income in either (1) a continuous statement of comprehensive income or (2) two separate but consecutive statements. The ASU does not change the items that must be reported in other comprehensive income.

Fair value measurements

        The Company adopted ASU No. 2011-04, "Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRS", which amended Accounting Standards Codification 820, Fair Value Measurements. ASU 2011-04 eliminates certain differences that existed between U.S. and international fair value accounting concepts, and also clarifies existing guidance under GAAP. Additionally, among other disclosures, this ASU requires certain new quantitative and qualitative disclosures regarding unobservable fair value measurements. The adoption did not have an impact on our consolidated financial statements.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

FUTURE ACCOUNTING CHANGES

Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities

        In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-11, Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities, which creates new disclosure requirements about the nature of an entity's rights of offset and related arrangements associated with its financial instruments and derivative instruments. The disclosure requirements are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013, and interim periods therein, with retrospective application required. The new disclosures are designed to make financial statements that are prepared under U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles more comparable to those prepared under International Financial Reporting Standards. We are evaluating the impact of ASU 2011-11 on our Consolidated Financial Statements.

3. MERGERS, ACQUISITIONS AND OTHER RELATED ACTIVITIES

DragonWave HFCL India Private Limited

        On March 10, 2011, DragonWave and Himachal Futuristic Communications Ltd. (HFCL) finalized the incorporation of DragonWave HFCL India Private Limited [DW-HFCL]. DragonWave invested $560 in return for 50.1% ownership of the newly formed company. The results of the subsidiary have been consolidated in the financial statements of the Company as of March 10, 2011. The Company is consolidating the results of DW-HFCL because they have majority control and hold substantive participating rights in the operations of DW-HFCL.

        Non-controlling interest consists of the minority owned portion of DragonWave HFCL India Private Limited.

Acquisition of Nokia Siemens Networks' Microwave Transport Business

        On June 1, 2012 the Company announced the closing of the acquisition of Nokia Siemens Networks' microwave transport business, including its associated operational support system (OSS) and related support functions. The acquisition was effected pursuant to the Amended and Restated Master Acquisition Agreement between DragonWave Inc., its wholly-owned subsidiary DragonWave S.A.R.L. and Nokia Siemens Networks dated May 3, 2012.

        Nokia Siemens Networks retains responsibility for its existing solution sales and associated services for microwave transport, while the Company is responsible for the microwave transport product line, including R&D, product management and operations functions. Nokia Siemens Networks will continue to provide R&D and other support to the business through a services arrangement.

        As part of the acquisition, the Company is now the preferred strategic supplier of packet microwave and related products to Nokia Siemens Networks and the two companies will jointly coordinate technology development activities. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company will continue the support and development of the acquired products, which will be sold via Nokia Siemens Networks through its existing channels as part of its end-to-end mobile broadband solution set and directly through the Company's existing channels.

        Consideration paid on closing by DragonWave S.A R.L., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, was $12,730 in cash and 2,000,978 common shares with market value of $5,279. The cash payment was made in Euros.

        The Purchase Price consists of the following components: a) cash delivered on closing; b) 2,000,978 common shares delivered on closing with a fair value of $5,279 which reflects that Nokia Siemens Networks is subject to a lock-up provision restricting sale or disposition of the shares, subject to customary exceptions; c) other consideration deferred for specific tangible assets; d) a contingent receivable based on business performance in the twelve months following closing.

        The Company allocated $12,545 to intangible assets, including customer relationships and developed technology based on their fair values at the date of purchase. These intangible assets are being amortized over their estimated useful lives of three, and six years, respectively. The useful lives of the intangible assets were determined as the period of time over which the assets are anticipated to contribute to the Company's future cash flows. None of the intangible assets are deductible for tax purposes.

3. MERGERS, ACQUISITIONS AND OTHER RELATED ACTIVITIES (Continued)

        The company recognized a one-time gain in the three and six months ended August 31, 2012 due to the difference between the cumulative tangible and intangible net assets and the purchase price.

        The primary reason for the acquisition, relates to the strategic position with Nokia Siemens Networks which positions DragonWave for future growth as well as the acquisition of a technology suite backed by service and support, and further bolsters the Company's ability to participate in the growth in LTE networks worldwide. Management believes that the Company recognized a gain on the purchase of a business as a result of: a) its existing relationship with Nokia Siemens Networks which positioned the Company more strategically to the seller than other potential acquirers; b) access to the liquidity necessary to complete the acquisition; and c) the prevailing economic and market environment.

4. CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS, AND RESTRICTED CASH

        The Company considers all highly liquid investment with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

        For the three and six months ended August 31, 2012, the Company recognized amortization of intangible assets of $1,199 and $1,741 [for the three and six months ended August 31, 2011—$622 and $1,209].

        During the three and six months ended August 31, 2012, the Company performed analyses of its intangible assets in order to determine whether the carrying value of those assets exceeded the estimated future cash flows expected to result from the use or disposition of those assets. Based upon these analyses, the Company determined that the carrying value of its Customer Relationship and Developed Technology intangible assets were in excess of the relative estimated future cash flows expected to result from their use or disposition. In each case where the fair value of the asset was less than the carrying value, the Company wrote the asset down to its fair value and recorded a corresponding impairment charge. As a result, the Company has recorded impairment charges on intangible assets of $1,148 and $4,017 during the three and six months ended August 31, 2012 [three and six months ended August 31, 2011—$8,315].

        The goodwill impairment test is a three-step process which requires the Company to make assumptions regarding fair value. The first step in the impairment test is to assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is necessary to perform the two-step goodwill impairment test. Because the Company impaired some intangible assets with finite lives, the Company believed there were qualitative factors in-place that would suggest that the two-step goodwill impairment test would need to be performed. The second step consisted of calculating the fair value of our aggregated reporting unit. The Company used both a market-based approach and an estimate of discounted future cash flows.

        In applying the market-based approach the Company calculated its market capitalization using values from a reasonable time period around the date of the impairment test. The Company applied a control premium that was identified using recent comparable transactions.

        In applying the discounted cash flow methodology, we rely on a number of factors, including future business plans, actual and forecasted operating results, and market data. The significant assumptions employed under this method include discount rates; revenue growth rates, including assumed terminal growth rates; and operating margins used to project future cash flows for a reporting unit. The discount rates utilized reflect market-based estimates of capital costs and discount rates adjusted for management's assessment of a market participant's view with respect to other risks associated with the projected cash flows of the individual reporting unit. Our estimates are based upon assumptions we believe to be reasonable, but which by nature are uncertain and unpredictable.

        Our annual goodwill impairment analysis for fiscal 2013 did not result in any impairment loss.

11. DEBT FACILITY

        Concurrently with the closing of the acquisition of Nokia Siemens Networks' Microwave Transport on June 1, 2012, the Company established a new long term credit facility with Comerica Bank and Export Development Canada. The credit facility is for a total of $40,000, of which the Company has drawn $15,000 as of August 31, 2012. The Company has access, subject to ongoing compliance with borrowing covenants, to $20,000 in additional credit (for total maximum credit of $60,000). The credit facility matures on May 31, 2014 and is secured by a first-priority charge on all of the assets of DragonWave and its principal direct and indirect subsidiaries. Borrowing options under the credit facility include US dollar, Canadian dollar and Euro loans. Interest rates vary with market rate fluctuations, with loans bearing interest in the range of 3—4% above the applicable base rates. The terms of the credit facility include other customary terms, conditions, covenants, and representations and warranties. Direct costs associated with obtaining the debt facility such as closing fees, registration and legal expenses have been capitalized and will be amortized over the two year term of the facility. During the three months ended August 31, 2012 the

        The Company records an expense equal to the fair value of shares granted pursuant to the employee share purchase plan over the period the shares vest. The total fair value of the shares earned during the three and six months ended August 31, 2012 was $11 and $25 [three and six months ended August 31, 2011—$9 and $16]. The fair value of the unearned ESPP shares as at August 31, 2012 was $39 [February 29, 2012—$48].

15. COMMITMENTS (Continued)


DragonWave is required to pay royalties at the rate of 3%—3.5% of sales of products developed with funds provided by the OCS, up to an amount equal to 100% of the OCS grants, bearing interest at the rate of LIBOR. The obligation to pay these royalties is contingent on actual sales of the products and in the absence of such sales, no payment is required.

        During the three and six months ended August 31, 2012 the Company adjusted the contingent royalty liability based on a change in estimate. A corresponding gain of $352 and $1,542 was made to recognize the change in estimate in the consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss) in the three and six months ended August 31, 2012 [three and six months ended August 31, 2011—$1,850]. The Company has a maximum potential obligation of an additional $15,878.

16. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

        The Company leases premises from a real estate company controlled by a former member of the Board of Directors. The real estate company ceased to be a related party on June 12, 2012. During the six months ended August 31, 2012, the Company paid $895 [three and six months ended August 31, 2011—$433 and $739], relating to the rent, operating costs, and leasehold improvements associated with this real estate. The value owing for net purchases at February 29, 2012 was $3.

        All transactions are in the normal course of business and have been recorded at the exchange amount.

17. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

        Financial instruments are classified into one of the following categories: held-for-trading, held-to-maturity, available-for-sale, loans and receivables, or other financial liabilities.

Fair Value

        The following table summarizes the carrying values of the Company's financial instruments:

 
  May 31,
2012
  February 29,
2012
 

Held-for-trading(1)

    44,246     52,975  

Loans and receivables(2)

    45,034     10,214  

Other financial liabilities(3)

    59,343     11,655  

(1)
Includes cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash, forward contracts and short term investments

(2)
Includes trade receivables, contingent receivables and other receivables which are financial in nature

(3)
Includes accounts payable and accrued liabilities which are financial in nature

        Cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, short term investments, trade receivables, other receivables, accounts payable and accrued liabilities are short term financial instruments whose fair value approximates the carrying amount given that they will mature shortly. As at the consolidated balance sheet dates, there are no significant differences between the carrying values of these items and their estimated fair values. All financial instruments have been measured using Level 1 inputs.

17. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (Continued)

Interest rate risk

        Cash and cash equivalents, short term investments and the Company's line of credit with fixed interest rates expose the Company to interest rate risk on these financial instruments. Interest expense of $740 and $711 was recognized during the three and six months ended August 31, 2012 on the Company's cash, cash equivalents, short term investments and line of credit [three and six months ended August 31, 2011—Income of $127 and $211].

Credit risk

        In addition to trade receivables and other receivables, the Company is exposed to credit risk on its cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, and short term investments in the event that its counterparties do not meet their obligations. The Company does not use credit derivatives or similar instruments to mitigate this risk and, as such, the maximum exposure is the full carrying value or fair value of the financial instrument. The Company minimizes credit risk on cash and cash equivalents and short term investments by transacting with only reputable financial institutions and customers.

Foreign exchange risk

        Foreign exchange risk arises because of fluctuations in exchange rates. To mitigate exchange risk, we utilize forward contracts to secure exchange rates with the objective of offsetting fluctuations in our operating expenses incurred in foreign currencies with gains or losses on the forward contracts. Our foreign exchange forward contracts mature at various dates through November 2012 and have an aggregate fair value of $13,835. During the three months ended August 31, 2012, the Company recorded approximately $267 of gains related to its foreign exchange forward contracts. Our foreign exchange forward contracts are over-the-counter instruments. There is an active market for this instrument and, therefore, it is classified as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy. All foreign currency gains and losses related to forward contracts are included in Foreign exchange gain (loss) in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

        As of August 31, 2012, if the US dollar had appreciated 1% against all foreign currencies, with all other variables held constant, the impact of this foreign currency change on the Company's foreign denominated financial instruments would have resulted in a decrease in after-tax net income of $39 for the three and six months ended August 31, 2012 [three and six months ended August 31, 2011—$91], with an equal and opposite effect if the US dollar had depreciated 1 percent against all foreign currencies at August 31, 2012.

Liquidity risk

        A risk exists that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they become due. Based on the Company's recent performance, current revenue expectations and strong current ratio, management believes that liquidity risk is low.

18. SEGMENTAL INFORMATION

        The Company operates in one reportable segment, broadband wireless backhaul equipment.

20. RESTRUCTURING COSTS RELATED TO SPECIFIC ITEMS

        During the six month period ending August 31, 2012, the Company implemented several structural adjustments to reflect the Company's global integration plan for the planned acquisition of Nokia Siemens Networks' microwave transport business. One of these changes aimed at reducing its operating expenses in order to better align it with its revenues.

        Restructuring charges of $798 related to severance costs have been recognized in the six month period ended August 31, 2012.

21. COMPARATIVE FIGURES
